00:05:35.180 --> 00:05:41.120
Well,<00:05:35.939><c> the</c><00:05:36.060><c> argument,</c><00:05:36.480><c> just</c><00:05:36.779><c> to</c><00:05:37.459><c> say,</c><00:05:37.779><c> is</c><00:05:37.920><c> that</c><00:05:38.220><c> that</c><00:05:38.519><c> difference</c><00:05:39.000><c> is,</c><00:05:40.399><c> I</c>

Everything<00:05:49.540><c> is</c><00:05:50.000><c> to</c><00:05:50.000><c> do</c><00:05:50.339><c> with</c><00:05:51.060><c> the</c><00:05:51.220><c> way</c><00:05:51.379><c> God</c><00:05:51.660><c> has</c><00:05:52.019><c> chosen</c><00:05:52.319><c> to</c><00:05:52.579><c> bring</c><00:05:52.740><c> it</c>

But<00:06:03.160><c> that's</c><00:06:03.959><c> the</c><00:06:04.120><c> issue.</c>

00:06:05.300 --> 00:06:09.920
How<00:06:06.100><c> is</c><00:06:06.279><c> it</c><00:06:06.519><c> possible</c><00:06:07.360><c> for</c><00:06:07.660><c> us</c><00:06:07.819><c> to</c><00:06:08.060><c> say</c><00:06:08.339><c> that</c><00:06:08.639><c> the</c><00:06:08.839><c> Gospel</c><00:06:09.220><c> record</c><00:06:09.639><c> of</c>

00:06:17.100 --> 00:06:19.360

00:10:44.179 --> 00:10:47.360

00:10:56.799 --> 00:11:00.559
But<00:10:57.220><c> there</c><00:10:57.600><c> is</c><00:10:57.899><c> something,</c><00:10:58.179><c> obviously,</c><00:10:59.279><c> awful</c><00:10:59.500><c> about</c><00:10:59.919><c> it.</c>

00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:10.419

00:11:20.100 --> 00:11:24.799
Indeed,<00:11:20.320><c> it's</c><00:11:20.700><c> difficult</c><00:11:21.139><c> to</c><00:11:21.440><c> reconcile</c><00:11:21.860><c> any</c><00:11:22.259><c> kind</c><00:11:22.460><c> of</c><00:11:22.740><c> inspiration</c><00:11:23.440><c> with</c><00:11:23.940><c> dictation</c>

00:11:29.960 --> 00:11:34.539

00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:37.980
My<00:11:36.159><c> question</c><00:11:36.720><c> is,</c><00:11:36.980><c> what</c><00:11:37.120><c> does</c><00:11:37.279><c> the</c><00:11:37.419><c> scripture</c><00:11:37.639><c> say?</c>

00:11:48.740 --> 00:11:51.200
It<00:11:49.279><c> comes</c><00:11:49.480><c> to</c><00:11:49.659><c> the</c><00:11:49.759><c> same</c><00:11:49.960><c> conclusion</c><00:11:50.480><c> that</c><00:11:50.720><c> Brother</c><00:11:50.940><c> Robert</c>

00:11:52.379 --> 00:11:54.039
We<00:11:52.539><c> don't</c><00:11:52.860><c> know.</c>

00:11:55.019 --> 00:11:57.460
And<00:11:55.159><c> Brother</c><00:11:55.379><c> Roberts</c><00:11:55.659><c> would</c><00:11:55.860><c> even</c><00:11:56.100><c> go</c><00:11:56.440><c> as</c><00:11:56.799><c> far</c><00:11:56.940><c> as</c><00:11:57.080><c> to</c><00:11:57.240><c> say,</c>

and<00:11:57.779><c> it</c><00:11:57.940><c> doesn't</c><00:11:58.220><c> matter.</c>

00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:03.960
Well,<00:12:00.919><c> I'm</c><00:12:01.279><c> going</c><00:12:01.419><c> to</c><00:12:01.600><c> suggest</c><00:12:01.919><c> it</c><00:12:02.120><c> does</c><00:12:02.419><c> matter,</c><00:12:03.379><c> at</c><00:12:03.480><c> least</c>

it<00:12:25.659><c> yet</c><00:12:25.879><c> expressed</c><00:12:26.600><c> God's</c><00:12:27.379><c> words.</c>

00:12:28.299 --> 00:12:31.360
Inspiration<00:12:28.980><c> is</c><00:12:29.600><c> not</c><00:12:29.799><c> dictation.</c>

00:12:31.659 --> 00:12:33.559
There's<00:12:32.179><c> what</c><00:12:32.419><c> I</c><00:12:32.480><c> would</c><00:12:32.700><c> call</c><00:12:32.840><c> the</c><00:12:33.080><c> mantra.</c>

00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:37.879
But<00:12:36.039><c> it's</c><00:12:36.559><c> still</c><00:12:36.740><c> God's</c><00:12:37.200><c> word.</c>

00:12:38.899 --> 00:12:43.100
Brother<00:12:39.240><c> Carter</c><00:12:39.860><c> would</c><00:12:40.919><c> say,</c><00:12:41.419><c> well,</c><00:12:41.639><c> how</c><00:12:41.879><c> did</c><00:12:42.039><c> it</c><00:12:42.220><c> happen?</c>

00:12:43.379 --> 00:12:44.639
It's<00:12:43.639><c> a</c><00:12:43.799><c> miracle.</c>

00:12:47.220 --> 00:12:50.179

It's<00:19:03.500><c> gone,</c><00:19:03.720><c> it's</c><00:19:04.000><c> gone.</c>

00:19:05.420 --> 00:19:06.619
How<00:19:05.619><c> do</c><00:19:05.799><c> you</c><00:19:06.039><c> nail</c><00:19:06.220><c> it</c><00:19:06.480><c> down?</c>

00:19:06.700 --> 00:19:08.680
That<00:19:06.720><c> would</c><00:19:06.960><c> be</c><00:19:07.119><c> cruel</c><00:19:07.299><c> to</c><00:19:07.519><c> the</c><00:19:07.759><c> frog,</c><00:19:08.079><c> but</c><00:19:08.079><c> how</c><00:19:08.240><c> do</c><00:19:08.359><c> you</c><00:19:08.440><c> get</c>

00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:10.019
this<00:19:09.160><c> thought?</c>

00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:16.640
So<00:19:12.920><c> I</c><00:19:13.359><c> just</c><00:19:13.700><c> want</c><00:19:14.019><c> to</c><00:19:14.380><c> get</c><00:19:15.500><c> us</c><00:19:15.819><c> to</c><00:19:16.059><c> think</c><00:19:16.259><c> about</c><00:19:16.440><c> it.</c>

00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:17.920
I'm<00:19:16.660><c> not</c><00:19:16.839><c> saying</c><00:19:17.000><c> I've</c><00:19:17.220><c> got</c><00:19:17.440><c> the</c><00:19:17.680><c> answer.</c>

00:19:18.019 --> 00:19:20.339
I<00:19:18.039><c> think</c><00:19:18.220><c> there's</c><00:19:18.799><c> an</c><00:19:19.019><c> answer</c><00:19:19.160><c> I'm</c><00:19:19.400><c> satisfied</c><00:19:19.940><c> with.</c>

00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:23.299
And<00:19:20.819><c> in</c><00:19:20.960><c> the</c><00:19:21.160><c> Agora</c><00:19:21.480><c> we</c><00:19:21.779><c> can</c><00:19:22.160><c> sort</c><00:19:22.559><c> of</c><00:19:22.559><c> tease</c><00:19:22.700><c> out</c><00:19:22.960><c> some</c><00:19:23.160><c> of</c>

00:19:23.299 --> 00:19:23.819
these<00:19:23.519><c> things.</c>

00:19:23.819 --> 00:19:31.420
And<00:19:25.019><c> we</c><00:19:25.400><c> may</c><00:19:25.779><c> end</c><00:19:26.119><c> up</c><00:19:26.380><c> not</c><00:19:27.000><c> being</c><00:19:27.279><c> 100</c><00:19:27.559><c>%</c><00:19:28.200><c> in</c><00:19:30.140><c> agreement</c><00:19:30.799><c> in</c>

00:19:31.420 --> 00:19:32.140
every<00:19:31.700><c> aspect,</c>

00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:35.299
but<00:19:32.539><c> that</c><00:19:32.819><c> we</c><00:19:33.000><c> would</c><00:19:33.240><c> at</c><00:19:33.400><c> least</c><00:19:33.640><c> come</c><00:19:34.220><c> with</c><00:19:34.759><c> confidence</c>

00:19:35.299 --> 00:19:38.779
to<00:19:35.619><c> the</c><00:19:36.059><c> position</c><00:19:36.440><c> of</c><00:19:37.119><c> Brother</c><00:19:37.319><c> Carter</c><00:19:37.759><c> or</c><00:19:38.039><c> Brother</c><00:19:38.359><c> Roberts</c>

00:19:38.779 --> 00:19:42.359
that<00:19:39.440><c> whatever</c><00:19:40.099><c> you</c><00:19:40.380><c> say</c><00:19:40.579><c> about</c><00:19:40.819><c> style,</c><00:19:41.859><c> there's</c><00:19:42.160><c> an</c>

00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:43.819
overriding<00:19:42.920><c> consideration,</c>

00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:46.599
which<00:19:44.559><c> is,</c><00:19:45.079><c> is</c><00:19:45.259><c> it</c><00:19:45.440><c> the</c><00:19:45.579><c> Word</c><00:19:45.720><c> of</c><00:19:45.980><c> God</c><00:19:46.160><c> or</c><00:19:46.480><c> not?</c>

00:19:46.660 --> 00:19:47.559
Yes,<00:19:46.920><c> it</c><00:19:47.140><c> is.</c>

00:19:47.700 --> 00:19:52.019
And<00:19:48.059><c> that's</c><00:19:48.460><c> where</c><00:19:48.599><c> we</c><00:19:48.900><c> should</c><00:19:49.099><c> put</c><00:19:49.420><c> our</c><00:19:49.880><c> emphasis</c><00:19:50.400><c> and</c><00:19:50.900><c> our</c><00:19:51.240><c> stress.</c>

00:19:53.299 --> 00:19:55.500
So<00:19:53.819><c> what</c><00:19:54.079><c> we're</c><00:19:54.279><c> dealing</c><00:19:54.579><c> with</c><00:19:54.859><c> is</c><00:19:55.039><c> this,</c><00:19:55.299><c> right,</c>

00:19:55.500 --> 00:20:02.740
that<00:19:55.680><c> the</c><00:19:55.980><c> Spirit</c><00:19:56.200><c> of</c><00:19:56.460><c> God</c><00:19:57.539><c> inspired</c><00:19:58.660><c> the</c><00:19:59.059><c> prophet</c><00:19:59.660><c> and</c><00:20:02.140><c> the</c><00:20:02.420><c> scribe.</c>

00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:03.539
Do<00:20:03.099><c> you</c><00:20:03.319><c> agree?</c>

00:20:03.660 --> 00:20:05.579
The<00:20:03.839><c> scribe,</c><00:20:04.160><c> in</c><00:20:04.299><c> other</c><00:20:04.420><c> words,</c><00:20:04.599><c> when</c><00:20:04.819><c> those</c><00:20:05.079><c> words</c><00:20:05.339><c> were</c>

00:20:05.579 --> 00:20:06.200
written<00:20:05.799><c> down,</c>

00:20:06.220 --> 00:20:10.259
they<00:20:06.339><c> were</c><00:20:06.539><c> written</c><00:20:06.759><c> down</c><00:20:07.160><c> by</c><00:20:07.680><c> inspiration</c><00:20:08.480><c> of</c><00:20:08.819><c> God,</c><00:20:09.319><c> right?</c>

00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:11.880
I<00:20:11.119><c> put</c><00:20:11.220><c> in</c><00:20:11.480><c> editor.</c>

00:20:12.140 --> 00:20:13.740
You<00:20:12.279><c> might</c><00:20:12.480><c> think,</c><00:20:12.700><c> well,</c><00:20:12.880><c> what</c><00:20:13.079><c> is</c><00:20:13.259><c> an</c><00:20:13.500><c> editor?</c>

00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:16.980
Well,<00:20:14.000><c> it's</c><00:20:14.579><c> clear</c><00:20:15.039><c> that</c><00:20:15.519><c> there</c><00:20:15.819><c> were</c><00:20:16.079><c> not</c><00:20:16.420><c> just,</c>

00:20:17.420 --> 00:20:20.039
we<00:20:17.759><c> haven't</c><00:20:17.980><c> got</c><00:20:18.160><c> all</c><00:20:18.539><c> the</c><00:20:18.799><c> words</c><00:20:19.140><c> that</c><00:20:19.380><c> were</c><00:20:19.640><c> spoken.</c>

00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:23.400
And<00:20:20.640><c> you</c><00:20:20.759><c> can</c><00:20:21.000><c> have</c><00:20:21.180><c> a</c><00:20:21.279><c> look</c><00:20:21.480><c> at</c><00:20:22.299><c> Acts</c><00:20:22.779><c> chapter</c><00:20:23.119><c> 2</c>

00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:28.279
and<00:20:23.619><c> Peter</c><00:20:23.839><c> gave</c><00:20:24.140><c> this</c><00:20:24.420><c> speech</c><00:20:24.700><c> and</c><00:20:24.880><c> he</c><00:20:25.059><c> said</c><00:20:25.200><c> many</c><00:20:26.619><c> similar</c><00:20:27.200><c> things.</c>

00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:32.380
So<00:20:29.140><c> what</c><00:20:29.380><c> we</c><00:20:29.640><c> have</c><00:20:29.740><c> is</c><00:20:29.960><c> a</c><00:20:30.299><c> selection</c><00:20:30.880><c> of</c><00:20:31.480><c> what</c><00:20:31.720><c> was</c><00:20:32.099><c> said.</c>

00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:34.240
That's<00:20:33.140><c> obvious,</c><00:20:33.700><c> isn't</c><00:20:33.759><c> it?</c>

00:20:34.420 --> 00:20:36.279
We<00:20:34.700><c> don't</c><00:20:34.920><c> have</c><00:20:35.160><c> everything</c><00:20:35.740><c> they</c><00:20:36.099><c> said.</c>

00:20:36.359 --> 00:20:39.299
Sometimes<00:20:36.680><c> we</c><00:20:36.900><c> may</c><00:20:37.019><c> have</c><00:20:37.259><c> a</c><00:20:37.579><c> summary</c><00:20:37.859><c> or</c><00:20:38.279><c> a</c><00:20:38.279><c> praise</c><00:20:38.619><c> of</c><00:20:39.059><c> what</c>

00:20:39.299 --> 00:20:40.339
was<00:20:39.599><c> said.</c>

00:20:40.579 --> 00:20:45.099
That<00:20:40.799><c> may</c><00:20:41.019><c> explain</c><00:20:41.380><c> some</c><00:20:41.619><c> of</c><00:20:41.779><c> the</c><00:20:41.920><c> differences</c><00:20:42.319><c> between</c><00:20:42.819><c> Matthew,</c><00:20:43.279><c> Mark,</c><00:20:43.940><c> and</c><00:20:44.119><c> Luke.</c>

00:20:46.299 --> 00:20:48.220
But<00:20:46.859><c> we</c><00:20:47.240><c> would</c><00:20:47.440><c> agree,</c><00:20:47.779><c> wouldn't</c><00:20:47.980><c> we,</c>

00:20:48.220 --> 00:20:53.519
that<00:20:48.400><c> the</c><00:20:48.660><c> Spirit</c><00:20:48.839><c> of</c><00:20:49.059><c> God</c><00:20:49.240><c> would</c><00:20:49.460><c> have</c><00:20:49.819><c> controlled</c><00:20:50.839><c> any</c><00:20:52.319><c> recording</c><00:20:53.140><c> of</c>

00:20:53.519 --> 00:20:53.960
that<00:20:53.799><c> word</c>

00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:56.519
or<00:20:54.180><c> any</c><00:20:54.559><c> compilation</c><00:20:55.380><c> of</c><00:20:55.880><c> that</c><00:20:56.220><c> word.</c>

00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:00.220
So<00:20:57.140><c> if</c><00:20:57.440><c> Solomon</c><00:20:57.779><c> collected</c><00:20:58.859><c> Proverbs,</c>

00:21:00.339 --> 00:21:03.259
they<00:21:00.420><c> would</c><00:21:00.619><c> have</c><00:21:00.799><c> been</c><00:21:00.960><c> just</c><00:21:01.319><c> the</c><00:21:01.519><c> right</c><00:21:01.799><c> Proverbs</c><00:21:02.200><c> to</c><00:21:02.460><c> be</c><00:21:02.720><c> collected</c>

00:21:03.259 --> 00:21:04.980
to<00:21:03.680><c> be</c><00:21:03.900><c> part</c><00:21:04.180><c> of</c><00:21:04.380><c> the</c><00:21:04.539><c> Word</c><00:21:04.700><c> of</c><00:21:04.880><c> God.</c>

00:21:05.099 --> 00:21:07.700
I<00:21:05.240><c> presume</c><00:21:05.500><c> that</c><00:21:05.740><c> the</c><00:21:06.000><c> Spirit</c><00:21:06.220><c> of</c><00:21:06.440><c> God</c><00:21:06.599><c> had</c><00:21:06.859><c> moved</c><00:21:07.019><c> many</c><00:21:07.359><c> others</c>

00:21:07.700 --> 00:21:13.240
to<00:21:08.039><c> speak</c><00:21:08.680><c> inspired</c><00:21:09.740><c> Proverbs</c><00:21:10.559><c> across</c><00:21:12.000><c> that</c><00:21:12.380><c> time.</c>

00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:18.359
So<00:21:14.359><c> this</c><00:21:15.039><c> is</c><00:21:15.299><c> where</c><00:21:15.440><c> I</c><00:21:15.440><c> think</c><00:21:15.579><c> we'd</c><00:21:15.880><c> all</c><00:21:16.059><c> agree</c><00:21:16.440><c> that</c><00:21:17.220><c> inspiration</c><00:21:17.859><c> works.</c>

00:21:18.700 --> 00:21:25.200
But<00:21:18.980><c> we</c><00:21:20.400><c> stop</c><00:21:20.720><c> short</c><00:21:21.259><c> of</c><00:21:21.579><c> saying</c><00:21:21.940><c> that</c><00:21:22.259><c> the</c><00:21:22.559><c> copying</c><00:21:23.140><c> of</c><00:21:24.539><c> the</c>

00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:26.720
original<00:21:25.680><c> texts</c>

00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:30.319
was<00:21:27.940><c> inspired</c><00:21:29.099><c> by</c><00:21:29.519><c> God.</c>

00:21:30.440 --> 00:21:32.740
Because<00:21:30.740><c> we</c><00:21:31.099><c> allow</c><00:21:31.400><c> in</c><00:21:31.700><c> our</c><00:21:32.000><c> state</c><00:21:32.200><c> of</c><00:21:32.380><c> the</c><00:21:32.539><c> faith</c>

00:21:32.740 --> 00:21:36.859
that<00:21:32.940><c> there</c><00:21:33.180><c> could</c><00:21:33.400><c> have</c><00:21:33.599><c> been</c><00:21:33.940><c> errors</c><00:21:34.599><c> of</c><00:21:35.460><c> transcription.</c>

00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:40.880

00:21:41.119 --> 00:21:44.019
Although<00:21:41.440><c> it</c><00:21:41.839><c> seems,</c><00:21:42.440><c> as</c><00:21:42.500><c> Brother</c><00:21:42.720><c> Roberts</c><00:21:43.059><c> says</c><00:21:43.519><c> in</c><00:21:43.680><c> one</c><00:21:43.880><c> of</c>

these<00:21:44.299><c> articles,</c>

00:21:44.740 --> 00:21:47.119

00:21:50.279 --> 00:21:51.839
be<00:21:50.460><c> exactly</c><00:21:50.839><c> what</c><00:21:51.039><c> he</c><00:21:51.279><c> wanted,</c>

00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:58.839
would<00:21:52.259><c> then</c><00:21:52.599><c> allow</c><00:21:53.539><c> human</c><00:21:54.740><c> forces</c><00:21:55.460><c> to</c><00:21:56.119><c> so</c><00:21:56.500><c> cloudy</c><00:21:56.960><c> the</c><00:21:57.700><c> transmission</c><00:21:58.400><c> of</c>

00:22:03.970 --> 00:22:09.920
So<00:22:04.420><c> we</c><00:22:05.740><c> might</c><00:22:06.000><c> say</c><00:22:06.319><c> that</c><00:22:06.579><c> there</c><00:22:06.819><c> was</c><00:22:08.460><c> angelic</c><00:22:09.259><c> supervision</c>

00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:17.819

00:22:20.559 --> 00:22:23.119
Very<00:22:21.019><c> few</c><00:22:21.220><c> people</c><00:22:21.519><c> would</c><00:22:21.759><c> say</c><00:22:21.980><c> that</c><00:22:22.180><c> the</c><00:22:22.380><c> copies,</c><00:22:23.039><c> therefore,</c>

00:22:23.559 --> 00:22:24.279
were<00:22:23.720><c> inspired</c>

00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:28.099
and<00:22:24.700><c> that</c><00:22:24.920><c> the</c><00:22:25.279><c> translators</c><00:22:26.119><c> themselves</c><00:22:26.759><c> were</c><00:22:27.099><c> inspired.</c>

00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:33.660
In<00:22:29.920><c> the</c><00:22:30.119><c> past,</c><00:22:30.799><c> in</c><00:22:30.799><c> Britain,</c><00:22:31.359><c> some</c><00:22:31.500><c> have</c><00:22:31.779><c> been</c><00:22:32.019><c> so</c><00:22:33.240><c> enamored</c>

00:22:33.660 --> 00:22:35.299
of<00:22:33.980><c> the</c><00:22:34.259><c> King</c><00:22:34.440><c> James</c><00:22:34.859><c> Version</c>

00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:43.960
As<00:22:41.759><c> one</c><00:22:42.319><c> elder</c><00:22:42.619><c> sister</c><00:22:43.000><c> was</c><00:22:43.279><c> supposed</c><00:22:43.440><c> to</c><00:22:43.619><c> have</c><00:22:43.799><c> said,</c>

00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:46.220
if<00:22:44.119><c> it</c><00:22:44.200><c> was</c><00:22:44.440><c> good</c><00:22:44.619><c> enough</c><00:22:44.759><c> for</c><00:22:44.920><c> the</c><00:22:45.059><c> Apostle</c><00:22:45.500><c> Paul,</c><00:22:45.740><c> it's</c><00:22:45.980><c> good</c>

00:22:46.220 --> 00:22:47.500
enough<00:22:46.400><c> for</c><00:22:46.619><c> us.</c>

00:22:49.019 --> 00:22:53.599
But<00:22:49.279><c> I</c><00:22:50.039><c> think,</c><00:22:51.240><c> on</c><00:22:51.420><c> reflection,</c><00:22:52.220><c> that</c><00:22:52.299><c> probably</c><00:22:52.579><c> doesn't</c><00:22:53.000><c> stand</c><00:22:53.359><c> up</c>

00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:54.680
to<00:22:53.819><c> scrutiny.</c>

00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:58.460
And<00:22:56.000><c> we</c><00:22:56.299><c> know</c><00:22:56.539><c> that</c><00:22:56.740><c> there</c><00:22:56.920><c> are</c><00:22:57.059><c> some</c><00:22:57.400><c> translators</c>

00:22:58.460 --> 00:23:02.380
who<00:22:58.900><c> are</c><00:22:59.700><c> skewing</c><00:23:00.059><c> quite</c><00:23:00.440><c> deliberately</c><00:23:01.200><c> the</c><00:23:01.819><c> Word</c><00:23:02.019><c> of</c><00:23:02.240><c> God.</c>

00:23:02.420 --> 00:23:05.200
If<00:23:02.539><c> you</c><00:23:02.640><c> look</c><00:23:02.779><c> at</c><00:23:02.900><c> the</c><00:23:03.059><c> Good</c><00:23:03.220><c> News</c><00:23:03.519><c> or</c><00:23:03.779><c> the</c><00:23:03.960><c> Living</c><00:23:04.200><c> Bible,</c>

00:23:05.220 --> 00:23:09.200
you'll<00:23:05.480><c> see</c><00:23:05.839><c> that</c><00:23:06.380><c> you</c><00:23:07.000><c> go</c><00:23:07.240><c> to</c><00:23:07.460><c> heaven</c><00:23:07.740><c> when</c><00:23:07.940><c> you</c><00:23:08.119><c> die.</c>

00:23:10.140 --> 00:23:12.059
The<00:23:10.279><c> True</c><00:23:10.559><c> Bible</c><00:23:10.900><c> says</c><00:23:11.160><c> nothing</c><00:23:11.460><c> of</c><00:23:11.680><c> the</c><00:23:11.859><c> sort,</c>

00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:14.660
but<00:23:12.319><c> the</c><00:23:12.700><c> translators</c><00:23:13.240><c> have</c><00:23:13.500><c> put</c><00:23:13.640><c> their</c><00:23:13.880><c> own</c><00:23:14.140><c> thoughts</c><00:23:14.400><c> in.</c>

00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:18.180
Now<00:23:15.240><c> the</c><00:23:15.240><c> question</c><00:23:15.559><c> is,</c><00:23:16.140><c> to</c><00:23:16.319><c> what</c><00:23:16.539><c> extent</c><00:23:16.940><c> does</c><00:23:17.220><c> putting</c><00:23:17.480><c> one's</c><00:23:17.819><c> own</c>

00:23:18.180 --> 00:23:19.140
thoughts<00:23:18.500><c> in</c>

00:23:19.140 --> 00:23:22.680
apply<00:23:19.599><c> to</c><00:23:19.819><c> the</c><00:23:20.039><c> prophet</c><00:23:20.279><c> and</c><00:23:20.480><c> the</c><00:23:20.740><c> scribe?</c>

00:23:23.019 --> 00:23:27.359
And<00:23:23.579><c> my</c><00:23:23.759><c> answer</c><00:23:24.059><c> is,</c><00:23:24.599><c> not</c><00:23:24.599><c> at</c><00:23:24.839><c> all.</c><00:23:25.819><c> Not</c><00:23:26.000><c> at</c><00:23:26.279><c> all.</c>

00:23:28.779 --> 00:23:29.940
But<00:23:29.000><c> that's</c><00:23:29.220><c> not</c><00:23:29.359><c> the</c><00:23:29.460><c> whole</c><00:23:29.619><c> story.</c>

00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:33.400
So<00:23:30.359><c> the</c><00:23:30.740><c> issue</c><00:23:31.059><c> is</c><00:23:31.539><c> then,</c><00:23:31.759><c> where</c><00:23:32.000><c> does</c><00:23:32.299><c> what's</c><00:23:32.900><c> called</c><00:23:33.059><c> the</c>

00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:34.819
human<00:23:33.759><c> element</c><00:23:34.259><c> come</c><00:23:34.640><c> in?</c>

00:23:34.900 --> 00:23:37.039
Clearly,<00:23:35.640><c> the</c><00:23:35.920><c> human</c><00:23:36.180><c> element</c><00:23:36.500><c> comes</c><00:23:36.859><c> in.</c>

00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:39.039
The<00:23:37.279><c> copies</c><00:23:37.539><c> can</c><00:23:37.859><c> make</c><00:23:38.059><c> an</c><00:23:38.279><c> error.</c>

00:23:40.220 --> 00:23:46.480
But,<00:23:41.039><c> of</c><00:23:41.180><c> course,</c><00:23:41.339><c> God</c><00:23:41.599><c> gave</c><00:23:42.680><c> the</c><00:23:43.500><c> Scriptures</c><00:23:44.099><c> to</c><00:23:45.220><c> the</c><00:23:45.539><c> Jewish</c><00:23:45.880><c> nation,</c>

00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:49.640
the<00:23:46.859><c> Old</c><00:23:47.079><c> Testament</c><00:23:47.400><c> Scriptures</c><00:23:47.740><c> to</c><00:23:48.019><c> the</c><00:23:48.299><c> Jewish</c><00:23:48.599><c> nation,</c><00:23:49.460><c> to</c>

00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:50.480
look<00:23:49.920><c> after.</c>

00:23:50.480 --> 00:23:54.359
What<00:23:51.339><c> value</c><00:23:52.579><c> is</c><00:23:52.839><c> there</c><00:23:53.299><c> in</c><00:23:53.500><c> being</c><00:23:53.880><c> a</c><00:23:54.119><c> Jew?</c>

00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:58.240
He<00:23:54.599><c> says,</c><00:23:55.380><c> chiefly,</c><00:23:56.599><c> because</c><00:23:56.859><c> to</c><00:23:57.119><c> them</c><00:23:57.259><c> were</c><00:23:57.500><c> committed</c><00:23:57.920><c> the</c>

00:23:58.240 --> 00:23:59.220
oracles<00:23:58.619><c> of</c><00:23:58.920><c> God.</c>

00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:03.140
God<00:23:59.759><c> gave</c><00:24:00.240><c> oracles</c><00:24:00.779><c> to</c><00:24:01.059><c> people</c><00:24:01.420><c> who</c><00:24:01.720><c> were</c><00:24:01.980><c> fastidious</c><00:24:02.660><c> to</c><00:24:02.900><c> the</c>

00:24:03.140 --> 00:24:04.980
point<00:24:03.359><c> of</c><00:24:03.619><c> Pharisaicum</c>

00:24:05.079 --> 00:24:07.359
in<00:24:05.480><c> their</c><00:24:05.720><c> attention</c><00:24:06.160><c> to</c><00:24:06.480><c> detail.</c>

00:24:08.579 --> 00:24:11.539
A<00:24:08.880><c> stroke</c><00:24:09.019><c> of</c><00:24:09.259><c> absolute</c><00:24:09.660><c> genius,</c><00:24:10.480><c> wasn't</c><00:24:10.500><c> it?</c>

00:24:12.299 --> 00:24:14.720
Where<00:24:12.480><c> they</c><00:24:12.599><c> would</c><00:24:12.819><c> count</c><00:24:13.160><c> every</c><00:24:13.640><c> word.</c>

00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:19.140
And<00:24:16.519><c> if</c><00:24:16.720><c> there</c><00:24:16.900><c> was</c><00:24:17.119><c> a</c><00:24:17.319><c> mistake,</c><00:24:17.619><c> they'd</c><00:24:17.960><c> throw</c><00:24:18.079><c> that</c><00:24:18.380><c> away</c>

00:24:19.140 --> 00:24:21.599
and<00:24:20.099><c> start</c><00:24:20.400><c> again.</c>

00:24:21.980 --> 00:24:24.440
So<00:24:22.240><c> we</c><00:24:22.420><c> can</c><00:24:22.960><c> have</c><00:24:23.380><c> confidence.</c>

00:24:25.980 --> 00:24:30.839
But<00:24:25.980><c> my</c><00:24:26.940><c> challenge</c><00:24:27.559><c> is,</c><00:24:28.240><c> well,</c><00:24:28.400><c> if</c><00:24:28.660><c> you</c><00:24:28.940><c> really</c><00:24:29.359><c> want</c><00:24:29.779><c> to</c><00:24:30.039><c> emphasize</c><00:24:30.480><c> that</c>

00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:31.779
human<00:24:31.240><c> element,</c>

00:24:32.099 --> 00:24:34.599
and<00:24:32.279><c> brethren,</c><00:24:32.660><c> you</c><00:24:32.660><c> might</c><00:24:32.859><c> think</c><00:24:33.180><c> of</c><00:24:33.680><c> the</c><00:24:33.940><c> classes</c><00:24:34.259><c> you've</c>

00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:36.099
done<00:24:34.740><c> over</c><00:24:35.039><c> the</c><00:24:35.119><c> last</c><00:24:35.380><c> several</c><00:24:35.740><c> years</c>

00:24:36.099 --> 00:24:39.440
and<00:24:36.319><c> what</c><00:24:36.500><c> you</c><00:24:36.799><c> said</c><00:24:37.000><c> about</c><00:24:37.660><c> the</c><00:24:38.079><c> writers</c><00:24:38.460><c> or</c><00:24:38.700><c> the</c><00:24:39.019><c> prophets</c>

00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:41.039
and<00:24:40.500><c> so</c><00:24:40.819><c> on,</c>

00:24:41.099 --> 00:24:46.660
think,<00:24:41.220><c> well,</c><00:24:42.000><c> how</c><00:24:42.279><c> much</c><00:24:42.960><c> was</c><00:24:43.319><c> that</c><00:24:44.400><c> a</c><00:24:45.200><c> human</c><00:24:45.619><c> element?</c>

00:24:46.839 --> 00:24:49.740
And<00:24:47.319><c> if</c><00:24:47.500><c> you</c><00:24:47.640><c> say,</c><00:24:48.339><c> well,</c><00:24:48.700><c> I</c><00:24:48.700><c> can't</c><00:24:49.099><c> admit</c><00:24:49.279><c> it,</c><00:24:49.500><c> well,</c><00:24:49.579><c> Brother</c>

00:24:49.740 --> 00:24:51.460
Carter<00:24:50.019><c> says</c><00:24:50.299><c> it's</c><00:24:50.619><c> there.</c>

00:24:51.660 --> 00:24:53.960
Father<00:24:51.779><c> Roberts</c><00:24:52.220><c> even</c><00:24:52.579><c> admits</c><00:24:52.819><c> it's</c><00:24:53.119><c> there.</c>

00:24:54.799 --> 00:24:55.779
But<00:24:55.039><c> what</c><00:24:55.279><c> did</c><00:24:55.420><c> they</c><00:24:55.619><c> mean?</c>

00:24:55.799 --> 00:24:58.960
In<00:24:55.940><c> the</c><00:24:56.099><c> end,</c><00:24:56.240><c> they</c><00:24:56.500><c> said,</c><00:24:56.680><c> but</c><00:24:56.859><c> it's</c><00:24:57.099><c> still</c><00:24:57.460><c> the</c><00:24:57.740><c> Word</c><00:24:57.940><c> of</c><00:24:58.200><c> God.</c>

00:24:58.980 --> 00:25:00.740
So<00:24:59.200><c> let's</c><00:24:59.480><c> do</c><00:24:59.720><c> some</c><00:24:59.960><c> Scripture</c><00:25:00.359><c> study.</c>

00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:04.440
That<00:25:01.039><c> was</c><00:25:01.240><c> a</c><00:25:01.339><c> long</c><00:25:01.460><c> introduction,</c><00:25:01.859><c> I</c><00:25:02.059><c> know,</c><00:25:02.240><c> but</c><00:25:02.380><c> I'm</c><00:25:02.440><c> just</c><00:25:02.599><c> trying</c><00:25:02.740><c> to</c><00:25:03.359><c> clarify</c>

00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:11.519
why<00:25:05.359><c> this</c><00:25:05.720><c> is</c><00:25:06.220><c> a</c><00:25:06.500><c> topic</c><00:25:06.799><c> which</c><00:25:07.119><c> is</c><00:25:08.240><c> not</c><00:25:08.940><c> just</c><00:25:09.140><c> of</c><00:25:09.380><c> historical</c><00:25:10.500><c> interest,</c>

00:25:11.740 --> 00:25:13.500

00:25:13.500 --> 00:25:18.019
And<00:25:14.019><c> we</c><00:25:15.200><c> need</c><00:25:15.359><c> just</c><00:25:15.640><c> to</c><00:25:15.940><c> think</c><00:25:16.119><c> our</c><00:25:16.299><c> way</c><00:25:16.480><c> through</c><00:25:16.759><c> it</c><00:25:17.000><c> carefully.</c>

00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.000
Let's<00:25:19.039><c> look</c><00:25:19.220><c> at</c><00:25:19.380><c> Hebrews</c><00:25:19.579><c> chapter</c><00:25:19.980><c> one,</c><00:25:20.319><c> verse</c><00:25:20.559><c> one.</c>

00:25:44.220 --> 00:25:46.480
And<00:25:44.579><c> that</c><00:25:44.619><c> is</c><00:25:44.900><c> a</c><00:25:45.000><c> more</c><00:25:45.160><c> literal</c><00:25:45.359><c> translation.</c>

00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:50.660
And<00:25:47.519><c> in</c><00:25:48.220><c> the</c><00:25:48.420><c> authorized</c><00:25:49.039><c> King</c><00:25:49.259><c> James,</c><00:25:49.759><c> sundry</c><00:25:50.140><c> times</c><00:25:50.400><c> and</c>

divers<00:25:50.880><c> manners</c>

00:25:51.240 --> 00:25:55.440
are<00:25:51.640><c> two</c><00:25:51.900><c> Greek</c><00:25:52.160><c> words,</c><00:25:52.680><c> polymeros</c><00:25:53.279><c> and</c><00:25:53.819><c> polytropos.</c>

00:25:56.680 --> 00:26:00.940
And<00:25:57.359><c> the</c><00:25:58.039><c> poly</c><00:25:58.299><c> just</c><00:25:58.599><c> means</c><00:25:58.940><c> many,</c><00:25:59.619><c> so</c><00:25:59.900><c> many</c><00:26:00.259><c> somethings</c><00:26:00.819><c> and</c>

00:26:00.940 --> 00:26:02.359

00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:08.859
And<00:26:02.759><c> the</c><00:26:03.059><c> meros,</c><00:26:04.299><c> this</c><00:26:04.779><c> is</c><00:26:05.740><c> just</c><00:26:06.059><c> copying</c><00:26:06.500><c> the</c><00:26:08.220><c> concordance.</c>

00:26:09.200 --> 00:26:12.140

00:26:12.460 --> 00:26:15.279
So<00:26:12.859><c> it's</c><00:26:13.279><c> not</c><00:26:13.559><c> the</c><00:26:13.779><c> word</c><00:26:13.940><c> for</c><00:26:14.359><c> time.</c>

00:26:15.299 --> 00:26:19.539

00:26:19.779 --> 00:26:23.559
It's<00:26:20.059><c> saying</c><00:26:20.319><c> that</c><00:26:20.559><c> God</c><00:26:20.819><c> spoke</c><00:26:21.160><c> in</c><00:26:21.480><c> many</c><00:26:22.240><c> parts.</c>

00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:28.440
And<00:26:25.019><c> that's</c><00:26:25.339><c> the</c><00:26:25.500><c> word</c><00:26:25.640><c> used</c><00:26:25.920><c> in</c><00:26:26.119><c> 1</c><00:26:26.359><c> Corinthians</c><00:26:26.799><c> 13,</c><00:26:27.480><c> verse</c><00:26:27.759><c> nine.</c>

00:26:28.859 --> 00:26:31.539
For<00:26:29.000><c> we</c><00:26:29.339><c> prophesy</c><00:26:30.039><c> in</c><00:26:30.539><c> part.</c>

00:26:31.700 --> 00:26:38.700
When<00:26:32.339><c> that</c><00:26:32.640><c> which</c><00:26:32.839><c> is</c><00:26:33.339><c> part</c><00:26:34.059><c> is</c><00:26:36.259><c> done</c><00:26:37.200><c> away,</c><00:26:37.940><c> then</c><00:26:38.059><c> prophecies</c>

00:26:40.119 --> 00:26:42.819
So<00:26:40.359><c> what</c><00:26:40.500><c> I</c><00:26:40.680><c> think</c><00:26:40.859><c> it's</c><00:26:41.160><c> saying</c><00:26:41.259><c> is</c><00:26:41.460><c> not</c><00:26:41.680><c> that</c><00:26:41.839><c> God</c><00:26:42.059><c> spoke</c><00:26:42.539><c> at</c>

different<00:26:43.079><c> times</c>

00:26:43.460 --> 00:26:45.079

00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:49.900
but<00:26:45.700><c> that</c><00:26:45.960><c> when</c><00:26:46.519><c> God</c><00:26:46.859><c> revealed</c><00:26:47.759><c> certain</c><00:26:48.420><c> things</c><00:26:48.819><c> to</c><00:26:49.140><c> certain</c><00:26:49.460><c> people,</c>

00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:58.480
Daniel<00:26:53.180><c> was</c><00:26:53.480><c> given</c><00:26:54.119><c> visions</c><00:26:54.920><c> of</c><00:26:56.079><c> the</c><00:26:56.299><c> kingdoms</c><00:26:56.680><c> of</c><00:26:57.259><c> the</c><00:26:57.480><c> world.</c>

00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:03.019
Jeremiah<00:26:59.799><c> was</c><00:27:00.099><c> given</c><00:27:00.299><c> some,</c><00:27:00.900><c> but</c><00:27:00.900><c> not</c><00:27:01.140><c> the</c><00:27:01.359><c> same</c><00:27:01.579><c> sort</c><00:27:01.920><c> of</c><00:27:02.119><c> thing.</c>

00:27:04.500 --> 00:27:06.480
Moses<00:27:04.920><c> wasn't</c><00:27:05.380><c> given</c><00:27:05.720><c> those</c><00:27:06.119><c> visions.</c>

00:27:06.660 --> 00:27:10.920
Moses<00:27:06.960><c> was</c><00:27:07.339><c> given</c><00:27:07.839><c> words</c><00:27:08.339><c> of</c><00:27:08.619><c> commandment</c><00:27:09.160><c> and</c><00:27:09.460><c> statutes</c><00:27:09.880><c> and</c><00:27:10.160><c> law.</c>

00:27:11.299 --> 00:27:16.859
So<00:27:11.299><c> there</c><00:27:11.380><c> were</c><00:27:11.700><c> different</c><00:27:12.640><c> messages</c><00:27:13.640><c> revealed</c><00:27:15.140><c> at</c><00:27:16.079><c> different</c><00:27:16.339><c> times</c><00:27:16.619><c> to</c>

different<00:27:17.119><c> people.</c>

00:27:17.700 --> 00:27:19.579
So<00:27:17.819><c> it's</c><00:27:18.059><c> the</c><00:27:18.299><c> parts</c><00:27:18.700><c> of</c><00:27:19.059><c> the</c><00:27:19.299><c> message.</c>

00:27:19.839 --> 00:27:21.839
We<00:27:19.940><c> have</c><00:27:20.140><c> to</c><00:27:20.299><c> put</c><00:27:20.420><c> the</c><00:27:20.660><c> whole</c><00:27:21.039><c> thing</c><00:27:21.359><c> together.</c>

00:27:22.339 --> 00:27:25.240
Some<00:27:22.740><c> critics</c><00:27:23.259><c> will</c><00:27:23.559><c> say</c><00:27:23.680><c> yes,</c><00:27:23.960><c> and</c><00:27:24.079><c> not</c><00:27:24.240><c> all</c><00:27:24.500><c> the</c><00:27:24.759><c> parts</c><00:27:25.019><c> of</c>

00:27:26.099 --> 00:27:29.839
That<00:27:26.619><c> was</c><00:27:26.940><c> one</c><00:27:27.700><c> of</c><00:27:28.059><c> the</c><00:27:28.240><c> reasons</c><00:27:28.599><c> for</c><00:27:28.880><c> thinking</c><00:27:29.099><c> there</c><00:27:29.339><c> was</c><00:27:29.519><c> a</c>

00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:30.859

00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:06.240
it<00:29:02.680><c> might</c><00:29:02.920><c> have</c><00:29:03.119><c> been</c><00:29:03.319><c> absolutely</c><00:29:03.880><c> critical</c><00:29:04.859><c> for</c><00:29:05.660><c> proving</c>

00:29:11.180 --> 00:29:14.299

00:29:38.859 --> 00:29:40.140
So<00:29:39.279><c> what's</c><00:29:39.660><c> going</c><00:29:39.859><c> on</c><00:29:40.039><c> there?</c>

00:29:40.140 --> 00:29:42.220
I<00:29:40.200><c> need</c><00:29:40.319><c> to</c><00:29:40.539><c> think</c><00:29:40.720><c> about</c><00:29:41.019><c> that.</c>

00:29:48.299 --> 00:29:50.759

00:30:04.740 --> 00:30:10.380
It's<00:30:05.299><c> not</c><00:30:05.619><c> saying</c><00:30:06.079><c> in</c><00:30:06.559><c> many</c><00:30:07.420><c> parts</c><00:30:08.079><c> and</c><00:30:08.519><c> ways</c><00:30:08.960><c> prophets</c><00:30:09.640><c> spoke</c>

00:30:25.339 --> 00:30:29.980
So<00:30:26.220><c> scripture's</c><00:30:27.019><c> not</c><00:30:27.319><c> attributing</c><00:30:28.039><c> differences</c><00:30:28.680><c> in</c><00:30:29.480><c> message</c>

00:30:29.980 --> 00:30:32.660
and<00:30:30.460><c> style</c><00:30:30.900><c> to</c><00:30:31.339><c> the</c><00:30:31.619><c> prophet,</c>

00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:36.119
but<00:30:34.819><c> to</c><00:30:35.119><c> God.</c>

00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:39.660
And<00:30:37.519><c> in</c><00:30:37.640><c> a</c><00:30:37.759><c> way</c><00:30:37.880><c> that</c><00:30:38.119><c> answers</c><00:30:38.460><c> everything.</c>

00:30:40.140 --> 00:30:42.819
If<00:30:40.299><c> you</c><00:30:40.599><c> say,</c><00:30:41.079><c> well</c><00:30:41.079><c> why,</c><00:30:41.559><c> and</c><00:30:41.779><c> surely</c><00:30:41.940><c> it</c><00:30:42.039><c> must</c><00:30:42.240><c> apply</c><00:30:42.500><c> to</c><00:30:42.660><c> the</c>

00:30:42.819 --> 00:30:44.099

00:30:44.140 --> 00:30:46.640
if<00:30:44.220><c> you</c><00:30:44.380><c> say</c><00:30:44.480><c> why</c><00:30:44.680><c> is</c><00:30:44.960><c> Mark</c><00:30:45.119><c> different</c><00:30:45.519><c> from</c><00:30:46.200><c> Matthew?</c>

00:30:46.700 --> 00:30:49.059
Because<00:30:47.019><c> the</c><00:30:47.259><c> Holy</c><00:30:47.440><c> Spirit</c><00:30:47.900><c> caused</c><00:30:48.180><c> Mark</c><00:30:48.480><c> to</c><00:30:48.660><c> be</c><00:30:48.839><c> different</c>

00:30:49.059 --> 00:30:50.299
from<00:30:49.319><c> Matthew.</c>

00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:56.119
And<00:30:52.680><c> you</c><00:30:52.859><c> say,</c><00:30:53.119><c> well</c><00:30:53.420><c> surely</c><00:30:53.900><c> that's</c><00:30:54.400><c> something</c><00:30:54.559><c> to</c><00:30:54.779><c> do</c><00:30:54.880><c> with</c><00:30:55.119><c> Mark.</c>

00:30:57.119 --> 00:30:59.160
And<00:30:57.500><c> maybe</c><00:30:57.740><c> it</c><00:30:58.000><c> is.</c>

00:31:00.380 --> 00:31:01.420
But<00:31:00.599><c> what's</c><00:31:00.920><c> the</c><00:31:01.059><c> answer?</c>

00:31:01.819 --> 00:31:04.680
Who<00:31:02.400><c> told</c><00:31:02.619><c> Mark</c><00:31:02.900><c> to</c><00:31:03.119><c> do</c><00:31:03.220><c> it</c><00:31:03.359><c> in</c><00:31:03.480><c> the</c><00:31:03.619><c> first</c><00:31:03.859><c> place?</c>

00:31:06.500 --> 00:31:08.940
Who<00:31:06.880><c> caused</c><00:31:07.140><c> Mark</c><00:31:07.539><c> to</c><00:31:07.700><c> be</c><00:31:07.900><c> Mark?</c>

00:31:10.220 --> 00:31:13.180
Who<00:31:10.599><c> caused</c><00:31:10.859><c> Jeremiah</c><00:31:11.420><c> to</c><00:31:11.640><c> be</c><00:31:11.940><c> Jeremiah?</c>

00:31:14.420 --> 00:31:17.299
Actually<00:31:15.019><c> called</c><00:31:15.339><c> before</c><00:31:15.759><c> he</c><00:31:15.880><c> was</c><00:31:16.160><c> born</c>

00:31:17.519 --> 00:31:21.299
to<00:31:18.140><c> be</c><00:31:18.299><c> the</c><00:31:18.579><c> man</c><00:31:19.160><c> to</c><00:31:19.779><c> give</c><00:31:19.960><c> that</c><00:31:20.259><c> message.</c>

00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:23.440
It's<00:31:21.900><c> of</c><00:31:22.279><c> God.</c>

00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:30.779
And<00:31:25.660><c> so</c><00:31:25.839><c> if</c><00:31:26.059><c> Jeremiah</c><00:31:26.619><c> is</c><00:31:27.140><c> telling</c><00:31:27.299><c> us</c><00:31:27.980><c> the</c><00:31:28.359><c> book</c><00:31:28.779><c> about</c><00:31:29.259><c> Jeremiah</c><00:31:29.839><c> the</c><00:31:30.119><c> man,</c>

00:31:31.119 --> 00:31:34.819
it's<00:31:31.240><c> because</c><00:31:31.519><c> Jeremiah</c><00:31:32.079><c> the</c><00:31:32.400><c> man</c><00:31:32.799><c> is</c><00:31:33.059><c> part</c><00:31:33.319><c> of</c><00:31:33.480><c> the</c><00:31:33.700><c> message.</c>

00:31:35.759 --> 00:31:38.839
We're<00:31:36.039><c> not</c><00:31:36.119><c> to</c><00:31:36.420><c> separate</c><00:31:36.900><c> out</c><00:31:37.299><c> Jeremiah</c><00:31:37.900><c> the</c><00:31:38.220><c> man</c><00:31:38.480><c> and</c><00:31:38.680><c> all</c>

00:31:38.839 --> 00:31:39.519
the<00:31:38.980><c> bits</c><00:31:39.119><c> for</c><00:31:39.359><c> him</c>

00:31:39.519 --> 00:31:42.200
and<00:31:39.660><c> say,</c><00:31:39.779><c> well</c><00:31:39.900><c> that's</c><00:31:40.339><c> Jeremiah</c><00:31:40.640><c> the</c><00:31:40.940><c> man</c><00:31:41.279><c> and</c><00:31:41.640><c> this</c><00:31:41.920><c> is</c>

00:31:42.200 --> 00:31:43.619
God's<00:31:42.660><c> word.</c>

00:31:45.299 --> 00:31:51.279
The<00:31:45.940><c> wonder</c><00:31:46.319><c> of</c><00:31:46.720><c> the</c><00:31:46.900><c> marvel</c><00:31:47.240><c> of</c><00:31:47.640><c> the</c><00:31:48.480><c> literary</c><00:31:49.160><c> wonder</c><00:31:49.900><c> of</c><00:31:50.240><c> scripture</c>

00:31:51.940 --> 00:31:56.240
is<00:31:52.579><c> how</c><00:31:52.940><c> in</c><00:31:53.640><c> different</c><00:31:53.960><c> ways</c><00:31:54.299><c> and</c><00:31:54.559><c> different</c><00:31:54.960><c> styles</c><00:31:55.380><c> God</c><00:31:55.819><c> has</c>

00:31:56.240 --> 00:31:58.539
revealed<00:31:56.619><c> himself</c><00:31:57.099><c> to</c><00:31:57.319><c> us.</c>

00:31:59.519 --> 00:32:03.559
So<00:31:59.720><c> we</c><00:31:59.900><c> could</c><00:32:00.180><c> go</c><00:32:00.519><c> through</c><00:32:01.180><c> all</c><00:32:01.880><c> the</c><00:32:02.420><c> prophets</c><00:32:02.740><c> and</c><00:32:03.019><c> see</c><00:32:03.240><c> those</c>

00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:04.019
different<00:32:03.880><c> ways.</c>

00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:06.400
It<00:32:04.180><c> just</c><00:32:04.380><c> puts</c><00:32:04.599><c> up</c><00:32:04.880><c> some</c><00:32:05.059><c> because</c><00:32:05.220><c> I've</c><00:32:05.420><c> got</c><00:32:05.519><c> a</c><00:32:05.619><c> few</c><00:32:05.859><c> points</c><00:32:06.140><c> to</c>

00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:06.980
make<00:32:06.579><c> about</c><00:32:06.779><c> them.</c>

00:32:07.140 --> 00:32:09.500
The<00:32:07.440><c> first</c><00:32:07.819><c> prophet</c><00:32:08.279><c> was</c><00:32:08.599><c> Enoch.</c>

00:32:09.640 --> 00:32:12.180
The<00:32:10.160><c> curious</c><00:32:10.359><c> thing</c><00:32:10.579><c> about</c><00:32:10.880><c> Enoch</c><00:32:11.180><c> is</c><00:32:11.480><c> that</c><00:32:11.640><c> we're</c><00:32:11.779><c> not</c><00:32:11.960><c> told</c>

00:32:12.180 --> 00:32:13.519
he<00:32:12.299><c> was</c><00:32:12.460><c> a</c><00:32:12.720><c> prophet</c><00:32:12.880><c> in</c><00:32:13.160><c> Genesis.</c>

00:32:13.579 --> 00:32:16.140
We<00:32:13.680><c> have</c><00:32:13.839><c> to</c><00:32:13.980><c> wait</c><00:32:14.140><c> until</c><00:32:14.400><c> Jude</c><00:32:14.720><c> to</c><00:32:15.019><c> find</c><00:32:15.240><c> out</c><00:32:15.460><c> that</c><00:32:15.619><c> he</c><00:32:15.740><c> was</c><00:32:15.900><c> a</c>

00:32:16.140 --> 00:32:17.779
prophet<00:32:16.359><c> and</c><00:32:16.579><c> made</c><00:32:16.740><c> a</c><00:32:16.980><c> prophecy.</c>

00:32:18.500 --> 00:32:23.599
That<00:32:18.799><c> prophecy</c><00:32:19.180><c> wasn't</c><00:32:19.740><c> recorded</c><00:32:20.500><c> for</c><00:32:21.819><c> thousands</c><00:32:22.299><c> of</c><00:32:22.619><c> years.</c>

00:32:24.859 --> 00:32:27.180
And<00:32:25.160><c> therefore</c><00:32:25.359><c> you</c><00:32:25.680><c> can</c><00:32:25.960><c> see</c><00:32:26.099><c> that</c><00:32:26.319><c> there</c><00:32:26.480><c> were</c><00:32:26.640><c> many</c><00:32:26.900><c> other</c>

00:32:27.180 --> 00:32:29.259
things<00:32:27.460><c> that</c><00:32:27.779><c> went</c><00:32:28.059><c> on</c>

00:32:29.259 --> 00:32:32.660
over<00:32:29.839><c> biblical</c><00:32:30.259><c> times</c><00:32:30.680><c> that</c><00:32:30.900><c> we</c><00:32:31.180><c> are</c><00:32:31.279><c> not</c><00:32:31.519><c> told</c><00:32:31.759><c> about.</c>

00:32:34.220 --> 00:32:37.259
Did<00:32:34.359><c> you</c><00:32:34.519><c> know</c><00:32:34.619><c> that</c><00:32:34.880><c> Abraham,</c><00:32:35.660><c> Isaac,</c><00:32:36.099><c> and</c><00:32:36.279><c> Jacob</c><00:32:36.460><c> were</c><00:32:36.799><c> prophets?</c>

00:32:37.259 --> 00:32:39.140
Well,<00:32:37.640><c> yes</c><00:32:37.880><c> they</c><00:32:38.099><c> were.</c>

00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:41.119
They<00:32:39.559><c> were</c><00:32:39.559><c> my</c><00:32:39.900><c> prophets,</c><00:32:40.500><c> no</c><00:32:40.680><c> harm.</c>

00:32:41.559 --> 00:32:43.839
Don't<00:32:41.759><c> touch</c><00:32:42.059><c> him,</c><00:32:42.279><c> he's</c><00:32:42.519><c> my</c><00:32:42.839><c> prophet.</c>

00:32:44.220 --> 00:32:45.299
Abraham<00:32:44.660><c> was</c><00:32:44.940><c> a</c><00:32:45.140><c> prophet.</c>

00:32:45.420 --> 00:32:47.579
What<00:32:45.660><c> prophecies</c><00:32:46.160><c> did</c><00:32:46.380><c> Abraham</c><00:32:46.619><c> make?</c>

00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:50.779
Please<00:32:47.859><c> show</c><00:32:48.099><c> me</c><00:32:48.259><c> them</c><00:32:48.400><c> because</c><00:32:48.579><c> I</c><00:32:48.920><c> can't</c><00:32:49.259><c> find</c><00:32:49.640><c> them.</c>

00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:53.599
But<00:32:52.119><c> he</c><00:32:52.220><c> must</c><00:32:52.519><c> have</c><00:32:52.779><c> been</c><00:32:53.000><c> a</c><00:32:53.279><c> prophet.</c>

00:32:53.859 --> 00:32:58.420
I<00:32:54.099><c> can</c><00:32:54.380><c> see</c><00:32:54.519><c> the</c><00:32:54.920><c> prophecies</c><00:32:55.480><c> that</c><00:32:56.079><c> Isaac</c><00:32:56.440><c> made</c><00:32:56.759><c> and</c><00:32:56.900><c> Jacob</c><00:32:57.259><c> made.</c>

00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:02.940
Jacob,<00:33:00.000><c> Genesis</c><00:33:00.680><c> 49,</c><00:33:01.700><c> a</c><00:33:01.839><c> long</c><00:33:02.359><c> prophecy.</c>

00:33:02.940 --> 00:33:08.359

00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:11.259
How<00:33:08.640><c> would</c><00:33:08.819><c> he</c><00:33:09.119><c> know</c><00:33:09.240><c> what</c><00:33:09.480><c> his</c><00:33:09.740><c> sons</c><00:33:09.940><c> were</c><00:33:10.140><c> going</c><00:33:10.299><c> to</c><00:33:10.480><c> be?</c>

00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:15.059
He<00:33:12.200><c> would</c><00:33:12.339><c> have</c><00:33:12.519><c> to</c><00:33:12.640><c> have</c><00:33:12.759><c> been</c><00:33:12.980><c> given</c><00:33:13.160><c> those</c><00:33:13.500><c> words</c><00:33:13.819><c> by</c><00:33:14.079><c> God.</c>

00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:17.279
And<00:33:15.799><c> that's</c><00:33:15.980><c> what</c><00:33:16.119><c> he</c><00:33:16.380><c> spoke.</c>

00:33:19.819 --> 00:33:23.579
Now,<00:33:20.319><c> you</c><00:33:20.319><c> say,</c><00:33:21.680><c> let's</c><00:33:21.880><c> look</c><00:33:22.079><c> at</c><00:33:22.539><c> personal,</c><00:33:22.839><c> let's</c><00:33:23.180><c> turn</c><00:33:23.400><c> to</c>

00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:28.220
Let's<00:33:24.619><c> just</c><00:33:25.000><c> turn</c><00:33:25.200><c> to</c><00:33:25.539><c> Exodus</c><00:33:26.059><c> chapter</c><00:33:26.460><c> 3</c><00:33:27.160><c> and</c><00:33:27.720><c> ask,</c><00:33:28.079><c> well,</c>

00:33:40.299 --> 00:33:44.019
I<00:33:40.299><c> mean,</c><00:33:40.720><c> surely</c><00:33:41.220><c> Moses,</c><00:33:41.940><c> having</c><00:33:42.180><c> spent</c><00:33:42.460><c> 40</c><00:33:42.900><c> years</c><00:33:43.279><c> and</c><00:33:43.440><c> been</c><00:33:43.720><c> schooled</c>

Of<00:33:51.920><c> course,</c><00:33:52.059><c> that's</c><00:33:53.019><c> what</c><00:33:53.119><c> the</c><00:33:53.440><c> critics</c><00:33:53.779><c> will</c><00:33:54.119><c> say.</c>

00:33:54.259 --> 00:33:58.319
They'll<00:33:54.619><c> say</c><00:33:54.700><c> the</c><00:33:54.880><c> law</c><00:33:55.079><c> of</c><00:33:55.200><c> Moses,</c><00:33:55.579><c> say</c><00:33:56.019><c> it's</c><00:33:57.220><c> medical</c><00:33:57.700><c> value,</c>

00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:00.240
which<00:33:58.680><c> I</c><00:33:59.519><c> am</c><00:33:59.740><c> transpired.</c>

00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:03.000
But<00:34:00.319><c> they</c><00:34:00.740><c> say,</c><00:34:00.960><c> oh,</c><00:34:01.319><c> of</c><00:34:01.319><c> course,</c><00:34:01.799><c> that's</c><00:34:02.160><c> Egyptian</c><00:34:02.539><c> learning</c>

00:34:03.000 --> 00:34:05.200
that<00:34:03.240><c> Moses</c><00:34:03.859><c> had</c><00:34:04.480><c> learned.</c>

00:34:05.420 --> 00:34:08.159
Actually,<00:34:05.680><c> the</c><00:34:05.819><c> Egyptians</c><00:34:06.079><c> didn't</c><00:34:06.359><c> have</c><00:34:06.440><c> any</c><00:34:06.759><c> learning</c><00:34:06.980><c> like</c><00:34:07.240><c> that.</c>

00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:08.980
They<00:34:08.519><c> didn't</c><00:34:08.800><c> have</c><00:34:08.940><c> it.</c>

00:34:09.019 --> 00:34:10.219
Oh,<00:34:09.360><c> he</c><00:34:09.460><c> must</c><00:34:09.559><c> have</c><00:34:09.679><c> got</c><00:34:09.739><c> it</c><00:34:09.840><c> from</c><00:34:10.059><c> Babylon.</c>

00:34:10.380 --> 00:34:12.440
The<00:34:10.619><c> Babylonians</c><00:34:10.980><c> didn't</c><00:34:11.260><c> have</c><00:34:11.480><c> any</c><00:34:11.639><c> of</c><00:34:11.719><c> it.</c>

00:34:13.059 --> 00:34:14.500
Ah,<00:34:13.340><c> Moses,</c><00:34:13.679><c> he</c><00:34:13.820><c> was</c><00:34:14.039><c> a</c><00:34:14.199><c> genius.</c>

00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:18.940
He<00:34:15.320><c> sort</c><00:34:15.440><c> of</c><00:34:15.719><c> sat</c><00:34:15.840><c> down</c><00:34:16.219><c> in</c><00:34:17.239><c> the</c><00:34:17.480><c> wilderness</c><00:34:17.780><c> for</c><00:34:18.019><c> 40</c><00:34:18.340><c> years</c><00:34:18.579><c> and</c><00:34:18.679><c> he</c>

00:34:18.940 --> 00:34:19.559
worked<00:34:19.139><c> it</c><00:34:19.340><c> out.</c>

00:34:19.860 --> 00:34:23.079
How<00:34:20.260><c> do</c><00:34:20.440><c> you</c><00:34:20.599><c> work</c><00:34:20.820><c> out</c><00:34:21.000><c> about</c><00:34:21.199><c> epidemics</c><00:34:21.840><c> when</c><00:34:22.019><c> there's</c><00:34:22.239><c> nobody</c><00:34:22.480><c> else</c>

00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:24.000
there<00:34:23.559><c> living</c>

00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:25.380
except<00:34:24.519><c> she?</c>

00:34:25.460 --> 00:34:28.800
You<00:34:25.860><c> know,</c><00:34:25.860><c> you</c><00:34:26.039><c> can't</c><00:34:26.679><c> imagine</c><00:34:27.280><c> that</c><00:34:27.539><c> Moses</c><00:34:28.079><c> worked</c><00:34:28.420><c> this</c><00:34:28.639><c> out.</c>

00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:30.719
It<00:34:29.019><c> was</c><00:34:29.400><c> revelation.</c>

00:34:31.760 --> 00:34:36.260
The<00:34:31.900><c> modern</c><00:34:32.219><c> critic</c><00:34:32.480><c> says,</c><00:34:32.920><c> oh,</c><00:34:32.960><c> yes,</c><00:34:33.300><c> but</c><00:34:33.440><c> it</c><00:34:34.800><c> wasn't</c><00:34:35.380><c> written.</c>

00:34:36.420 --> 00:34:41.000
You<00:34:36.699><c> know,</c><00:34:36.760><c> you</c><00:34:36.880><c> might</c><00:34:37.099><c> think</c><00:34:37.380><c> that</c><00:34:37.679><c> Exodus</c><00:34:37.960><c> was</c><00:34:38.320><c> written</c><00:34:39.440><c> 1600</c><00:34:40.139><c> years</c><00:34:40.579><c> BC,</c>

00:34:41.340 --> 00:34:42.179
but<00:34:41.420><c> it</c><00:34:41.739><c> wasn't.</c>

00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:47.579
It<00:34:42.380><c> was</c><00:34:42.719><c> written</c><00:34:43.340><c> in</c><00:34:44.539><c> Babylon</c><00:34:44.860><c> 600</c><00:34:45.599><c> BC,</c><00:34:46.699><c> by</c><00:34:46.900><c> which</c><00:34:47.139><c> time</c><00:34:47.340><c> they</c>

00:34:47.579 --> 00:34:48.860
had<00:34:47.820><c> worked</c><00:34:48.000><c> all</c><00:34:48.219><c> these</c><00:34:48.420><c> things</c><00:34:48.719><c> out.</c>

00:34:48.900 --> 00:34:51.719
And<00:34:49.039><c> it</c><00:34:49.179><c> just</c><00:34:49.460><c> pretends</c><00:34:49.940><c> to</c><00:34:50.199><c> have</c><00:34:50.360><c> been</c><00:34:50.579><c> written</c><00:34:51.099><c> all</c><00:34:51.480><c> those</c>

00:34:51.719 --> 00:34:52.760
times<00:34:52.039><c> ago.</c>

00:34:52.760 --> 00:34:57.000
And<00:34:53.519><c> this</c><00:34:53.739><c> evolution</c><00:34:54.320><c> argument</c><00:34:55.039><c> requires</c><00:34:55.780><c> that</c><00:34:56.239><c> Genesis</c><00:34:56.639><c> is</c>

00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:59.639

00:35:00.860 --> 00:35:01.659
Yeah,<00:35:01.239><c> check</c><00:35:01.380><c> it</c><00:35:01.559><c> out.</c>

00:35:01.659 --> 00:35:03.179
That's<00:35:01.940><c> what</c><00:35:02.000><c> they</c><00:35:02.260><c> say.</c>

00:35:04.019 --> 00:35:07.579
Because<00:35:04.699><c> that's</c><00:35:05.380><c> what</c><00:35:05.500><c> they</c><00:35:05.840><c> need</c><00:35:06.179><c> in</c><00:35:06.400><c> order</c><00:35:06.739><c> to</c><00:35:07.340><c> develop</c>

00:35:07.579 --> 00:35:08.159
this<00:35:07.900><c> theory.</c>

00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:09.119
Anyway,<00:35:08.679><c> where</c><00:35:08.800><c> are</c><00:35:08.980><c> we?</c>

00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:12.980
Exodus<00:35:09.420><c> chapter</c><00:35:09.800><c> three</c><00:35:10.900><c> and</c><00:35:11.559><c> verse</c><00:35:11.800><c> 13.</c>

00:35:14.880 --> 00:35:18.820
Moses<00:35:15.260><c> asks,</c><00:35:16.059><c> you</c><00:35:16.059><c> know,</c><00:35:17.139><c> who</c><00:35:17.320><c> shall</c><00:35:17.539><c> I</c><00:35:17.880><c> say</c><00:35:18.260><c> sent</c><00:35:18.500><c> me?</c>

00:35:18.820 --> 00:35:23.199
And<00:35:19.079><c> verse</c><00:35:19.280><c> 14,</c><00:35:19.780><c> God</c><00:35:19.940><c> says</c><00:35:20.199><c> to</c><00:35:20.380><c> Moses,</c><00:35:20.780><c> I</c><00:35:20.880><c> will</c><00:35:21.159><c> be</c><00:35:21.619><c> who</c><00:35:21.920><c> I</c><00:35:22.119><c> will</c><00:35:22.340><c> be.</c>

00:35:23.300 --> 00:35:29.219
And<00:35:23.380><c> then</c><00:35:23.699><c> he</c><00:35:23.900><c> says,</c><00:35:26.179><c> verse</c><00:35:26.639><c> 15,</c><00:35:27.320><c> God</c><00:35:27.480><c> said,</c><00:35:28.179><c> Moreover</c><00:35:28.179><c> unto</c><00:35:28.619><c> Moses,</c>

00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:31.199
thus<00:35:29.739><c> shalt</c><00:35:29.920><c> thou</c><00:35:30.099><c> say</c><00:35:30.320><c> unto</c><00:35:30.480><c> the</c><00:35:30.639><c> children</c><00:35:30.880><c> of</c><00:35:31.039><c> Israel,</c>

Yahweh,<00:35:31.719><c> God</c><00:35:31.960><c> of</c><00:35:32.119><c> your</c><00:35:32.300><c> fathers,</c><00:35:32.719><c> the</c><00:35:32.840><c> God</c><00:35:33.019><c> of</c><00:35:33.179><c> Abram,</c><00:35:33.460><c> the</c><00:35:33.519><c> God</c><00:35:33.739><c> of</c><00:35:33.900><c> Isaac,</c>

00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:40.820

00:35:41.139 --> 00:35:46.260
And<00:35:41.539><c> so</c><00:35:41.760><c> he</c><00:35:42.039><c> tells</c><00:35:42.300><c> him</c><00:35:42.480><c> to</c><00:35:42.699><c> go</c><00:35:42.920><c> and</c><00:35:43.340><c> say</c><00:35:43.880><c> these</c><00:35:44.599><c> things</c><00:35:45.079><c> to</c><00:35:45.440><c> them.</c>

00:35:46.380 --> 00:35:49.579
And<00:35:46.900><c> you</c><00:35:47.320><c> could</c><00:35:47.519><c> say,</c><00:35:47.900><c> well,</c><00:35:47.980><c> OK,</c><00:35:48.219><c> Moses</c><00:35:48.619><c> goes</c><00:35:48.900><c> along</c><00:35:49.119><c> and</c><00:35:49.340><c> says,</c>

00:35:55.239 --> 00:35:56.440
And<00:35:55.280><c> let</c><00:35:55.440><c> me</c><00:35:55.559><c> think</c><00:35:55.699><c> now.</c>

00:35:56.519 --> 00:36:03.619
Yeah,<00:35:56.880><c> he</c><00:35:57.119><c> said</c><00:35:57.840><c> to</c><00:35:58.139><c> tell</c><00:35:58.480><c> you</c><00:35:58.739><c> that</c><00:36:00.300><c> he's</c><00:36:02.619><c> the</c><00:36:02.760><c> God</c><00:36:02.920><c> of</c><00:36:03.179><c> Abram,</c>

00:36:03.619 --> 00:36:04.960
I<00:36:03.780><c> think</c><00:36:04.039><c> it</c><00:36:04.199><c> was.</c>

00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:06.159
You<00:36:05.599><c> can't.</c>

00:36:06.500 --> 00:36:08.199
Is<00:36:06.760><c> that</c><00:36:07.000><c> the</c><00:36:07.119><c> way</c><00:36:07.239><c> it</c><00:36:07.500><c> happened?</c>

00:36:09.400 --> 00:36:15.239
Well,<00:36:11.199><c> what</c><00:36:11.400><c> happens</c><00:36:11.719><c> in</c><00:36:11.920><c> chapter</c><00:36:12.219><c> four</c><00:36:12.880><c> of</c><00:36:14.099><c> Exodus?</c>

00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:19.219
Moses<00:36:16.579><c> says</c><00:36:16.940><c> to</c><00:36:17.199><c> Yahweh,</c><00:36:17.619><c> Oh,</c><00:36:17.739><c> my</c><00:36:17.940><c> Lord,</c><00:36:18.280><c> I</c><00:36:18.280><c> am</c><00:36:18.440><c> not</c><00:36:18.719><c> eloquent,</c>

00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:21.860
I<00:36:19.519><c> am</c><00:36:19.699><c> not</c><00:36:19.880><c> eloquent</c><00:36:20.340><c> neither</c><00:36:20.659><c> here</c><00:36:20.900><c> to</c><00:36:21.099><c> fall</c><00:36:21.199><c> nor</c><00:36:21.440><c> since</c><00:36:21.699><c> thou</c>

00:36:24.460 --> 00:36:27.599
But<00:36:24.639><c> I</c><00:36:24.860><c> am</c><00:36:25.079><c> slow</c><00:36:25.400><c> of</c><00:36:25.659><c> speech</c><00:36:25.860><c> and</c><00:36:26.000><c> of</c><00:36:26.159><c> a</c><00:36:26.420><c> slow</c><00:36:26.659><c> tongue.</c>

00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:30.539
And<00:36:27.940><c> Yahweh</c><00:36:28.199><c> said</c><00:36:28.460><c> unto</c><00:36:28.639><c> him,</c><00:36:29.139><c> Who</c><00:36:29.300><c> hath</c><00:36:29.519><c> made</c><00:36:29.840><c> man's</c><00:36:30.300><c> mouth?</c>

00:36:33.480 --> 00:36:38.300
Now,<00:36:35.559><c> therefore,</c><00:36:35.719><c> go</c><00:36:35.860><c> and</c><00:36:36.019><c> I</c><00:36:36.159><c> will</c><00:36:36.360><c> be</c><00:36:36.619><c> with</c><00:36:37.039><c> thy</c><00:36:37.340><c> mouth</c><00:36:37.820><c> and</c>

00:36:59.139 --> 00:37:01.340
Just<00:36:59.780><c> a</c><00:37:00.260><c> straightforward</c><00:37:00.739><c> level.</c>

00:37:01.699 --> 00:37:07.860
What<00:37:01.880><c> we've</c><00:37:02.199><c> been</c><00:37:02.420><c> told</c><00:37:02.739><c> there</c><00:37:03.000><c> is</c><00:37:03.179><c> that</c><00:37:03.440><c> what</c><00:37:03.719><c> Moses</c><00:37:04.219><c> said</c><00:37:05.059><c> was</c><00:37:05.440><c> what</c><00:37:05.679><c> God</c><00:37:05.940><c> told</c><00:37:06.360><c> him</c><00:37:06.619><c> to</c><00:37:07.000><c> say.</c>

00:37:08.179 --> 00:37:11.420
But<00:37:08.320><c> Moses</c><00:37:08.659><c> would</c><00:37:08.980><c> tell</c><00:37:09.340><c> Aaron</c><00:37:09.559><c> to</c><00:37:09.900><c> say</c><00:37:10.159><c> it</c><00:37:10.519><c> and</c><00:37:10.739><c> Aaron</c><00:37:11.059><c> would</c>

what<00:37:13.699><c> God</c><00:37:13.940><c> had</c><00:37:14.179><c> told</c><00:37:14.280><c> Moses.</c>

00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:20.119
And<00:37:15.420><c> to</c><00:37:15.679><c> stop</c><00:37:16.260><c> Chinese</c><00:37:16.880><c> whispers,</c><00:37:17.820><c> God</c><00:37:18.139><c> would</c><00:37:18.440><c> be</c><00:37:18.639><c> with</c><00:37:18.920><c> Moses'</c><00:37:19.679><c> mouth</c>

00:37:23.139 --> 00:37:27.340
So<00:37:23.539><c> that</c><00:37:23.679><c> when</c><00:37:23.880><c> they</c><00:37:24.300><c> spoke,</c><00:37:25.099><c> people</c><00:37:25.460><c> were</c><00:37:25.760><c> hearing</c><00:37:26.300><c> the</c><00:37:26.619><c> words</c><00:37:26.820><c> of</c><00:37:27.119><c> God</c>

00:37:27.340 --> 00:37:32.679
and<00:37:27.719><c> those</c><00:37:28.139><c> who</c><00:37:28.539><c> spoke</c><00:37:28.860><c> were</c><00:37:29.159><c> called,</c><00:37:29.400><c> in</c><00:37:29.579><c> verse</c><00:37:29.820><c> 16,</c><00:37:31.179><c> spokesmen.</c>

00:37:33.960 --> 00:37:37.699
Now,<00:37:34.239><c> somebody</c><00:37:34.519><c> says,</c><00:37:35.619><c> oh,</c><00:37:35.780><c> it</c><00:37:35.860><c> wasn't</c><00:37:36.300><c> dictation.</c>

00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:41.800
Please<00:37:39.599><c> tell</c><00:37:39.780><c> me</c><00:37:39.940><c> what</c><00:37:40.099><c> it</c><00:37:40.300><c> was</c><00:37:40.539><c> then.</c>

00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:44.059
And<00:37:42.559><c> you</c><00:37:42.699><c> say,</c><00:37:43.079><c> oh,</c><00:37:43.079><c> it</c><00:37:43.079><c> can't</c><00:37:43.420><c> be</c><00:37:43.539><c> dictation.</c>

00:37:44.119 --> 00:37:48.260
In<00:37:44.280><c> some</c><00:37:44.460><c> way,</c><00:37:44.599><c> that</c><00:37:44.760><c> is</c><00:37:45.079><c> demeaning</c><00:37:45.940><c> to</c><00:37:47.400><c> whom?</c>

Demeaning<00:37:49.659><c> to</c><00:37:50.000><c> Aaron?</c>

00:37:51.300 --> 00:37:53.219
That<00:37:51.480><c> he</c><00:37:51.639><c> can't</c><00:37:52.139><c> elaborate?</c>

00:37:53.400 --> 00:37:56.280
That<00:37:53.579><c> he</c><00:37:53.780><c> can't</c><00:37:54.219><c> use</c><00:37:54.420><c> his</c><00:37:54.719><c> power</c><00:37:55.079><c> of</c><00:37:55.360><c> oratory?</c>

Demeaning<00:37:57.159><c> to</c><00:37:57.440><c> Moses?</c>

00:37:59.460 --> 00:38:01.900
Moses<00:37:59.579><c> is</c><00:37:59.860><c> not</c><00:38:00.079><c> an</c><00:38:00.239><c> orator</c><00:38:00.539><c> at</c><00:38:00.800><c> all.</c>

00:38:02.000 --> 00:38:06.619
Moses<00:38:02.159><c> is</c><00:38:02.840><c> a</c><00:38:03.079><c> stammering,</c><00:38:05.139><c> shy</c><00:38:05.360><c> person.</c>

00:38:07.619 --> 00:38:11.519
And<00:38:07.800><c> God</c><00:38:07.920><c> is</c><00:38:08.219><c> glorified</c><00:38:08.840><c> through</c><00:38:09.099><c> Moses</c><00:38:09.679><c> because</c><00:38:10.320><c> of</c><00:38:10.579><c> that</c><00:38:10.820><c> impediment,</c>

00:38:12.019 --> 00:38:15.079

00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:19.480
So<00:38:15.880><c> the</c><00:38:16.179><c> concept</c><00:38:16.599><c> of</c><00:38:16.960><c> we</c><00:38:17.219><c> can't</c><00:38:17.639><c> accept</c><00:38:17.960><c> dictation,</c>

00:38:31.780 --> 00:38:37.380
And<00:38:32.099><c> that,</c><00:38:32.420><c> of</c><00:38:32.420><c> course,</c><00:38:33.260><c> is</c><00:38:33.480><c> so</c><00:38:33.980><c> particularly</c><00:38:34.860><c> the</c><00:38:35.599><c> case</c><00:38:36.059><c> with</c><00:38:36.579><c> Balaam.</c>

00:38:38.519 --> 00:38:41.760
And<00:38:39.280><c> this</c><00:38:39.659><c> is,</c><00:38:39.860><c> you</c><00:38:39.900><c> might</c><00:38:40.039><c> say,</c><00:38:40.300><c> oh,</c><00:38:40.579><c> that's</c><00:38:41.079><c> an</c><00:38:41.519><c> extreme.</c>

00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:46.340
Balaam<00:38:42.460><c> is</c><00:38:43.920><c> an</c><00:38:45.599><c> extreme</c><00:38:46.099><c> case.</c>

00:38:46.340 --> 00:38:51.940
Because<00:38:46.579><c> God</c><00:38:46.880><c> can</c><00:38:47.360><c> make</c><00:38:48.500><c> a</c><00:38:48.960><c> dumb</c><00:38:49.320><c> animal</c><00:38:49.980><c> speak,</c><00:38:50.559><c> can't</c><00:38:50.880><c> he?</c>

00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:54.599
And<00:38:52.659><c> in</c><00:38:53.019><c> Balaam's</c><00:38:53.260><c> case,</c><00:38:53.559><c> he</c><00:38:53.760><c> did.</c>

00:38:54.920 --> 00:39:00.760
He<00:38:55.139><c> made</c><00:38:55.679><c> Balaam</c><00:38:56.539><c> speak</c><00:38:57.179><c> the</c><00:38:57.820><c> opposite</c><00:38:58.360><c> of</c><00:38:58.659><c> what</c><00:38:58.880><c> Balaam</c><00:38:59.320><c> wanted</c><00:38:59.699><c> to</c><00:39:00.059><c> speak.</c>

00:39:00.900 --> 00:39:05.039
Balaam<00:39:01.260><c> had</c><00:39:01.440><c> been</c><00:39:01.719><c> employed</c><00:39:02.099><c> to</c><00:39:02.460><c> curse</c><00:39:02.940><c> and</c><00:39:03.480><c> Balaam</c><00:39:03.960><c> blessed.</c>

00:39:05.280 --> 00:39:07.840
And<00:39:05.519><c> Balaam</c><00:39:05.800><c> realizes</c><00:39:06.360><c> what's</c><00:39:06.820><c> going</c><00:39:07.059><c> on.</c>

00:39:08.119 --> 00:39:12.420
Somehow,<00:39:09.039><c> his</c><00:39:09.159><c> tongue</c><00:39:09.579><c> is</c><00:39:09.980><c> being</c><00:39:10.440><c> controlled</c><00:39:11.079><c> from</c><00:39:11.380><c> outside.</c>

00:39:12.820 --> 00:39:17.659
And<00:39:13.300><c> he</c><00:39:13.780><c> is</c><00:39:13.860><c> saying</c><00:39:14.059><c> the</c><00:39:14.280><c> things</c><00:39:14.719><c> that</c><00:39:15.320><c> he</c><00:39:15.539><c> doesn't</c><00:39:15.860><c> understand</c><00:39:16.400><c> himself.</c>

00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:22.400
The<00:39:19.920><c> word</c><00:39:20.219><c> that</c><00:39:20.420><c> God</c><00:39:20.559><c> put</c><00:39:20.820><c> in</c><00:39:21.000><c> my</c><00:39:21.280><c> mouth,</c><00:39:21.519><c> that</c><00:39:21.840><c> shall</c><00:39:22.019><c> I</c><00:39:22.280><c> speak.</c>

00:39:22.500 --> 00:39:24.860
Must<00:39:22.719><c> I</c><00:39:22.880><c> not</c><00:39:23.039><c> take</c><00:39:23.260><c> heed</c><00:39:23.420><c> to</c><00:39:23.719><c> speak</c><00:39:23.880><c> that</c><00:39:24.059><c> which</c><00:39:24.260><c> the</c><00:39:24.380><c> Lord</c><00:39:24.480><c> hath</c><00:39:24.639><c> put</c>

00:39:26.139 --> 00:39:27.880
And<00:39:26.559><c> he</c><00:39:26.820><c> was</c><00:39:27.179><c> in</c><00:39:27.500><c> a</c><00:39:27.599><c> trance.</c>

00:39:28.059 --> 00:39:32.539
So<00:39:28.420><c> if</c><00:39:28.780><c> you</c><00:39:29.019><c> say,</c><00:39:29.360><c> well,</c><00:39:29.760><c> it</c><00:39:30.340><c> only</c><00:39:30.599><c> happens</c><00:39:30.900><c> if</c><00:39:31.079><c> you're</c><00:39:31.260><c> in</c><00:39:31.400><c> a</c><00:39:31.599><c> trance.</c>

00:39:32.840 --> 00:39:35.880
Can<00:39:33.039><c> anyone</c><00:39:33.300><c> say</c><00:39:33.559><c> that</c><00:39:33.840><c> Isaiah</c><00:39:34.219><c> was</c><00:39:34.539><c> not</c><00:39:34.880><c> in</c><00:39:35.079><c> a</c><00:39:35.300><c> trance</c><00:39:35.659><c> when</c>

wrote<00:39:53.559><c> down.</c>

00:39:55.940 --> 00:39:59.480
So<00:39:56.239><c> in</c><00:39:56.360><c> that</c><00:39:56.619><c> case,</c><00:39:57.760><c> the</c><00:39:57.980><c> prophet</c><00:39:58.340><c> would</c><00:39:58.679><c> write</c><00:39:58.940><c> the</c><00:39:59.219><c> words</c>

00:40:02.420 --> 00:40:04.940
As<00:40:02.599><c> in</c><00:40:02.679><c> other</c><00:40:02.880><c> cases,</c><00:40:03.320><c> the</c><00:40:03.619><c> prophet</c><00:40:03.820><c> would</c><00:40:04.159><c> speak</c><00:40:04.440><c> the</c><00:40:04.699><c> words</c>

00:40:04.940 --> 00:40:07.139
and<00:40:05.159><c> somebody</c><00:40:05.400><c> else</c><00:40:05.659><c> would</c><00:40:05.840><c> write</c><00:40:05.960><c> them</c><00:40:06.239><c> down.</c>

00:40:10.280 --> 00:40:12.679
What<00:40:10.760><c> the</c><00:40:10.940><c> Lord</c><00:40:11.159><c> saith,</c><00:40:11.480><c> that</c><00:40:11.659><c> I</c><00:40:11.800><c> speak.</c>

00:40:12.900 --> 00:40:16.000
So<00:40:13.119><c> how</c><00:40:13.420><c> typical</c><00:40:13.940><c> is</c><00:40:14.260><c> that</c><00:40:14.739><c> what</c><00:40:15.219><c> normally</c><00:40:15.719><c> happened?</c>

00:40:16.139 --> 00:40:19.239
And<00:40:16.219><c> I</c><00:40:16.380><c> think</c><00:40:16.599><c> part</c><00:40:16.940><c> of</c><00:40:17.119><c> the</c><00:40:17.280><c> answer</c><00:40:17.519><c> is</c><00:40:17.639><c> going</c><00:40:17.800><c> to</c><00:40:17.940><c> be</c><00:40:18.079><c> this.</c>

00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:23.659
Balaam<00:40:19.539><c> clearly,</c><00:40:20.400><c> personally,</c><00:40:21.440><c> was</c><00:40:21.639><c> not</c><00:40:22.039><c> attuned</c><00:40:22.599><c> to</c><00:40:22.780><c> the</c><00:40:23.119><c> message</c><00:40:23.420><c> he</c>

00:40:23.659 --> 00:40:25.159
was<00:40:23.920><c> going</c><00:40:24.119><c> to</c><00:40:24.360><c> give.</c>

00:40:27.260 --> 00:40:29.420
In<00:40:27.440><c> fact,</c><00:40:27.539><c> it's</c><00:40:27.719><c> the</c><00:40:27.960><c> opposite</c><00:40:28.340><c> of</c><00:40:28.699><c> what</c><00:40:28.860><c> he</c><00:40:29.079><c> would</c><00:40:29.199><c> have</c>

00:40:29.420 --> 00:40:31.179

00:40:31.539 --> 00:40:38.480
So<00:40:31.880><c> God</c><00:40:32.280><c> can</c><00:40:32.840><c> completely</c><00:40:33.659><c> and</c><00:40:34.340><c> absolutely</c><00:40:34.980><c> override</c><00:40:36.320><c> any</c><00:40:37.219><c> thought</c><00:40:37.679><c> that</c><00:40:38.199><c> a</c>

00:40:56.199 --> 00:40:57.980
because<00:40:56.320><c> that's</c><00:40:56.619><c> what</c><00:40:56.780><c> happens</c><00:40:56.980><c> in</c><00:40:57.199><c> both</c><00:40:57.340><c> these</c><00:40:57.659><c> cases.</c>

00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:07.179

They<00:41:22.460><c> would</c><00:41:22.639><c> have</c><00:41:22.840><c> been</c><00:41:22.980><c> words</c><00:41:23.440><c> which</c><00:41:24.260><c> they</c><00:41:25.420><c> would</c><00:41:25.760><c> want</c><00:41:25.980><c> to</c>

00:41:50.440 --> 00:41:56.340

00:42:03.579 --> 00:42:12.260
So<00:42:03.739><c> these</c><00:42:04.159><c> are,</c><00:42:06.139><c> my</c><00:42:06.599><c> visual</c><00:42:06.920><c> aids</c><00:42:07.179><c> are,</c><00:42:09.659><c> not</c><00:42:10.039><c> my</c><00:42:10.360><c> strong</c><00:42:10.579><c> point,</c><00:42:11.119><c> but</c><00:42:11.119><c> so</c><00:42:12.019><c> I</c>

00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:17.900
If<00:42:15.719><c> anybody</c><00:42:16.159><c> wants</c><00:42:16.440><c> to</c><00:42:16.679><c> redraw</c><00:42:17.039><c> this.</c>

00:42:18.599 --> 00:42:22.539
The<00:42:19.199><c> question</c><00:42:19.500><c> is,</c><00:42:19.719><c> how</c><00:42:19.920><c> does</c><00:42:20.219><c> the</c><00:42:20.420><c> Word</c><00:42:20.559><c> of</c><00:42:20.780><c> God</c><00:42:20.980><c> become</c><00:42:21.380><c> the</c><00:42:21.599><c> Scriptures?</c>

00:42:22.780 --> 00:42:25.659

00:42:27.179 --> 00:42:30.820
Here<00:42:27.380><c> is</c><00:42:27.599><c> a</c><00:42:27.699><c> prophet</c><00:42:28.380><c> playing</c><00:42:28.900><c> on</c><00:42:29.199><c> a</c><00:42:29.320><c> harp</c><00:42:29.539><c> and</c><00:42:29.900><c> speaking</c><00:42:30.239><c> the</c>

00:42:32.059 --> 00:42:35.360
Here<00:42:32.360><c> is</c><00:42:32.659><c> a</c><00:42:32.920><c> scribe,</c><00:42:33.920><c> could</c><00:42:33.920><c> be</c><00:42:34.119><c> the</c><00:42:34.340><c> prophet,</c><00:42:34.659><c> could</c><00:42:34.880><c> be</c><00:42:35.139><c> a</c>

00:42:37.940 --> 00:42:45.099
And<00:42:38.699><c> here</c><00:42:39.000><c> is</c><00:42:40.420><c> a</c><00:42:41.159><c> translator</c><00:42:41.539><c> studying</c><00:42:42.159><c> the</c><00:42:42.480><c> ancient</c><00:42:42.699><c> documents</c><00:42:43.460><c> and</c><00:42:44.099><c> deciding</c><00:42:44.460><c> how</c>

to<00:42:45.420><c> translate</c><00:42:45.880><c> them.</c>

00:42:46.579 --> 00:42:48.679

00:42:49.099 --> 00:42:50.679
So<00:42:49.440><c> I</c><00:42:49.559><c> don't</c><00:42:49.800><c> think</c><00:42:49.940><c> we'd</c><00:42:50.199><c> have</c><00:42:50.280><c> a</c><00:42:50.559><c> problem.</c>

00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:54.139
The<00:42:50.980><c> Holy</c><00:42:51.199><c> Spirit</c><00:42:51.539><c> works</c><00:42:51.920><c> upon</c><00:42:52.119><c> the</c><00:42:52.480><c> mind</c><00:42:52.860><c> of</c><00:42:53.280><c> the</c><00:42:53.480><c> prophet</c><00:42:53.800><c> as</c>

I<00:42:57.179><c> speak</c><00:42:57.400><c> in</c><00:42:57.659><c> visions</c><00:42:58.159><c> or</c><00:42:58.760><c> in</c><00:42:59.059><c> dreams.</c>

00:42:59.239 --> 00:43:02.440
That<00:42:59.500><c> seems</c><00:42:59.760><c> to</c><00:42:59.960><c> be</c><00:43:00.039><c> in</c><00:43:00.159><c> the</c><00:43:00.360><c> normal</c><00:43:00.699><c> way</c><00:43:01.039><c> from</c><00:43:01.320><c> Numbers</c><00:43:01.699><c> chapter</c><00:43:02.019><c> 12.</c>

00:43:02.599 --> 00:43:04.880
You<00:43:02.679><c> see,</c><00:43:03.780><c> that's</c><00:43:04.059><c> what</c><00:43:04.219><c> we</c><00:43:04.280><c> read.</c>

00:43:05.340 --> 00:43:09.199
Notice<00:43:05.719><c> that</c><00:43:06.119><c> in</c><00:43:06.260><c> Numbers</c><00:43:06.480><c> chapter</c><00:43:06.780><c> 12,</c><00:43:07.400><c> it</c><00:43:07.400><c> says</c><00:43:08.699><c> right</c><00:43:09.019><c> at</c>

00:43:09.199 --> 00:43:10.760
the<00:43:09.380><c> beginning,</c>

00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:16.239
Moses<00:43:12.960><c> and</c><00:43:13.500><c> Miriam</c><00:43:13.719><c> say,</c><00:43:14.219><c> Hath</c><00:43:14.380><c> Yahweh</c><00:43:14.780><c> indeed</c><00:43:15.199><c> spoken</c><00:43:15.699><c> only</c>

00:43:16.239 --> 00:43:17.000
by<00:43:16.659><c> Moses?</c>

00:43:17.159 --> 00:43:19.400
Hath<00:43:17.360><c> he</c><00:43:17.440><c> not</c><00:43:17.840><c> spoken</c><00:43:18.300><c> also</c><00:43:18.780><c> by</c><00:43:19.139><c> us?</c>

00:43:19.559 --> 00:43:24.300
So<00:43:19.760><c> God</c><00:43:20.019><c> had</c><00:43:20.460><c> spoken</c><00:43:21.000><c> by</c><00:43:21.460><c> Aaron,</c><00:43:22.599><c> God</c><00:43:22.820><c> had</c><00:43:23.179><c> spoken</c><00:43:23.619><c> by</c><00:43:23.980><c> Miriam.</c>

00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:30.219
Miriam,<00:43:25.079><c> a</c><00:43:25.340><c> woman,</c><00:43:26.199><c> had</c><00:43:26.519><c> been</c><00:43:27.079><c> the</c><00:43:27.599><c> prophetess</c><00:43:28.179><c> who</c><00:43:28.360><c> had</c><00:43:28.760><c> spoken</c><00:43:29.440><c> the</c>

00:43:34.380 --> 00:43:37.880
So<00:43:34.739><c> God</c><00:43:35.019><c> used</c><00:43:35.340><c> women</c><00:43:35.840><c> to</c><00:43:36.340><c> speak</c><00:43:36.500><c> his</c><00:43:36.820><c> word.</c>

00:43:38.860 --> 00:43:42.840
That<00:43:39.039><c> song</c><00:43:39.320><c> wasn't</c><00:43:39.619><c> Miriam</c><00:43:40.019><c> making</c><00:43:40.340><c> up</c><00:43:40.599><c> a</c><00:43:40.699><c> nice</c><00:43:41.000><c> song</c><00:43:41.559><c> for</c><00:43:42.340><c> the</c>

00:43:44.719 --> 00:43:46.320
It<00:43:44.840><c> was</c><00:43:45.059><c> God</c><00:43:45.340><c> speaking</c><00:43:45.760><c> through</c><00:43:46.159><c> her.</c>

00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:50.579
Now<00:43:46.539><c> how</c><00:43:46.599><c> did</c><00:43:46.820><c> she</c><00:43:47.099><c> know</c><00:43:47.639><c> how</c><00:43:48.900><c> to</c><00:43:49.519><c> sing</c><00:43:49.760><c> that</c><00:43:50.219><c> song?</c>

00:43:50.820 --> 00:43:58.179
Well,<00:43:51.900><c> we're</c><00:43:52.039><c> not</c><00:43:52.239><c> told,</c><00:43:52.539><c> but</c><00:43:53.280><c> what</c><00:43:53.539><c> God</c><00:43:53.900><c> says</c><00:43:54.300><c> is</c><00:43:55.920><c> in</c><00:43:57.320><c> verse</c><00:43:57.559><c> 6,</c>

00:43:58.460 --> 00:44:02.119
I,<00:43:59.059><c> Yahweh,</c><00:43:59.099><c> will</c><00:43:59.280><c> make</c><00:43:59.480><c> myself</c><00:43:59.920><c> known</c><00:44:00.199><c> unto</c><00:44:00.400><c> him</c><00:44:00.699><c> in</c><00:44:00.960><c> a</c><00:44:01.099><c> vision,</c><00:44:01.920><c> will</c>

00:44:03.739 --> 00:44:09.260
So<00:44:04.079><c> I</c><00:44:04.199><c> think</c><00:44:04.460><c> Miriam</c><00:44:04.820><c> must</c><00:44:05.119><c> have</c><00:44:06.179><c> heard</c><00:44:06.880><c> this</c><00:44:07.639><c> song</c><00:44:08.139><c> and</c><00:44:09.079><c> been</c>

The<00:44:23.980><c> Holy</c><00:44:24.280><c> Spirit,</c><00:44:26.019><c> well,</c><00:44:26.400><c> did</c><00:44:26.539><c> it</c><00:44:26.760><c> work</c><00:44:26.920><c> on</c><00:44:27.239><c> David's</c><00:44:27.840><c> mouth?</c>

00:44:29.260 --> 00:44:36.960
Did<00:44:29.940><c> the</c><00:44:30.619><c> things</c><00:44:31.019><c> that</c><00:44:31.340><c> David</c><00:44:32.199><c> said</c><00:44:33.539><c> in</c><00:44:33.760><c> the</c><00:44:34.059><c> Psalms</c><00:44:35.500><c> come</c><00:44:36.360><c> from</c><00:44:36.559><c> his</c>

00:44:36.960 --> 00:44:39.260
heart<00:44:37.480><c> or</c><00:44:37.920><c> his</c><00:44:38.159><c> mouth?</c>

00:44:39.880 --> 00:44:41.699
That's<00:44:40.059><c> a</c><00:44:40.179><c> crude</c><00:44:40.300><c> way</c><00:44:40.539><c> of</c><00:44:40.539><c> putting</c><00:44:40.780><c> it.</c>

00:44:45.519 --> 00:44:51.000
So<00:44:46.199><c> did</c><00:44:46.880><c> the</c><00:44:47.099><c> Holy</c><00:44:47.360><c> Spirit</c><00:44:47.679><c> first</c><00:44:48.119><c> work</c><00:44:48.400><c> upon</c><00:44:48.699><c> his</c><00:44:49.039><c> mind</c><00:44:49.639><c> and</c>

00:44:51.000 --> 00:44:54.340
then<00:44:51.340><c> he</c><00:44:51.699><c> sang</c><00:44:51.960><c> the</c><00:44:52.280><c> psalm?</c>

00:44:54.579 --> 00:44:56.980
In<00:44:54.659><c> other</c><00:44:54.739><c> words,</c><00:44:54.880><c> did</c><00:44:55.119><c> David</c><00:44:55.559><c> think</c><00:44:56.019><c> about</c><00:44:56.340><c> it?</c>

00:44:56.980 --> 00:44:59.579
I<00:44:57.440><c> know</c><00:44:57.639><c> some</c><00:44:57.960><c> brothers</c><00:44:58.300><c> and</c><00:44:58.480><c> sisters</c><00:44:58.719><c> will</c><00:44:58.920><c> say,</c><00:44:59.199><c> oh</c><00:44:59.199><c> yeah,</c>

00:44:59.659 --> 00:45:02.820
David<00:45:00.019><c> sat</c><00:45:00.300><c> there</c><00:45:00.960><c> wondering</c><00:45:01.760><c> what</c><00:45:02.000><c> to</c><00:45:02.119><c> write</c><00:45:02.260><c> next.</c>

00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:06.119
It<00:45:03.420><c> doesn't</c><00:45:03.579><c> quite</c><00:45:03.900><c> rhyme</c><00:45:04.159><c> yet.</c><00:45:04.559><c> Let's</c><00:45:05.099><c> try</c><00:45:05.360><c> this</c><00:45:05.579><c> one</c><00:45:05.719><c> again.</c>

00:45:06.539 --> 00:45:09.300
Anybody<00:45:07.019><c> got</c><00:45:07.260><c> any</c><00:45:07.559><c> good</c><00:45:07.800><c> words</c><00:45:08.019><c> that</c><00:45:08.320><c> rhyme</c><00:45:08.559><c> with</c><00:45:09.059><c> that?</c>

00:45:09.420 --> 00:45:12.440
Because<00:45:09.739><c> it's</c><00:45:10.260><c> not</c><00:45:10.480><c> the</c><00:45:10.719><c> rhyming</c><00:45:11.019><c> of</c><00:45:11.460><c> end</c><00:45:11.739><c> words,</c><00:45:12.000><c> it's</c><00:45:12.280><c> the</c>

00:45:12.440 --> 00:45:16.320
rhyming<00:45:12.820><c> of</c><00:45:13.079><c> meter</c><00:45:13.460><c> that</c><00:45:14.300><c> Hebrew</c><00:45:14.619><c> poetry</c><00:45:15.019><c> is</c><00:45:15.320><c> known</c><00:45:15.539><c> for.</c>

00:45:16.539 --> 00:45:19.719
So<00:45:16.739><c> did</c><00:45:16.840><c> he</c><00:45:17.039><c> take</c><00:45:17.380><c> thought?</c><00:45:18.219><c> We're</c><00:45:18.519><c> not</c><00:45:18.780><c> told.</c>

00:45:21.179 --> 00:45:26.340
Are<00:45:21.420><c> you</c><00:45:21.679><c> telling</c><00:45:21.820><c> me</c><00:45:22.099><c> that</c><00:45:23.579><c> David</c><00:45:24.059><c> was</c><00:45:24.460><c> a</c><00:45:24.639><c> dictation</c><00:45:25.280><c> machine?</c>

00:45:27.539 --> 00:45:30.280
A<00:45:28.239><c> typewriter?</c><00:45:29.679><c> That</c><00:45:29.679><c> can't</c><00:45:30.000><c> be</c><00:45:30.159><c> right.</c>

00:45:30.400 --> 00:45:35.940
Surely<00:45:30.820><c> David's</c><00:45:31.940><c> Psalms</c><00:45:32.239><c> pour</c><00:45:32.639><c> out</c><00:45:33.199><c> of</c><00:45:33.739><c> the</c><00:45:34.119><c> heart</c><00:45:34.559><c> of</c><00:45:35.039><c> David?</c>

00:45:39.119 --> 00:45:42.980
This<00:45:39.739><c> is</c><00:45:39.960><c> where</c><00:45:40.199><c> you</c><00:45:40.400><c> might</c><00:45:40.579><c> be</c><00:45:40.820><c> upset</c><00:45:41.099><c> with</c><00:45:41.300><c> me.</c>

00:45:43.340 --> 00:45:46.159
Because<00:45:43.579><c> I'm</c><00:45:43.840><c> going</c><00:45:43.940><c> to</c><00:45:44.099><c> say</c><00:45:44.219><c> no,</c><00:45:44.519><c> they</c><00:45:44.639><c> didn't.</c>

00:45:48.239 --> 00:45:50.059
Not<00:45:48.480><c> at</c><00:45:48.760><c> first.</c>

00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:54.139
Not<00:45:52.840><c> at</c><00:45:53.139><c> first.</c>

00:45:54.780 --> 00:45:56.559
Afterwards,<00:45:55.840><c> sure.</c>

00:45:58.559 --> 00:46:03.239
Why<00:45:59.199><c> do</c><00:45:59.360><c> I</c><00:45:59.480><c> say</c><00:45:59.699><c> that?</c><00:46:00.059><c> Well,</c><00:46:00.260><c> because</c><00:46:01.019><c> he</c><00:46:01.320><c> was</c><00:46:01.500><c> the</c><00:46:01.679><c> Word</c><00:46:01.840><c> of</c><00:46:02.059><c> God.</c>

00:46:03.880 --> 00:46:07.960
So<00:46:04.079><c> the</c><00:46:04.179><c> question</c><00:46:04.659><c> is,</c><00:46:05.139><c> in</c><00:46:05.320><c> my</c><00:46:05.659><c> mind,</c><00:46:06.019><c> I</c><00:46:06.159><c> put</c><00:46:06.320><c> it</c><00:46:06.440><c> like</c><00:46:06.719><c> this.</c>

00:46:07.980 --> 00:46:12.539
When<00:46:08.239><c> was</c><00:46:08.599><c> David's</c><00:46:09.340><c> heart</c><00:46:09.880><c> affected</c><00:46:10.539><c> by</c><00:46:10.880><c> the</c><00:46:11.179><c> Psalms?</c>

00:46:14.820 --> 00:46:20.500
Before<00:46:15.460><c> the</c><00:46:16.099><c> first</c><00:46:16.800><c> utterance</c><00:46:17.360><c> of</c><00:46:17.639><c> the</c><00:46:17.860><c> psalm</c><00:46:18.980><c> or</c><00:46:19.360><c> after?</c>

00:46:21.300 --> 00:46:27.320
I'm<00:46:21.940><c> going</c><00:46:22.139><c> to</c><00:46:22.280><c> suggest</c><00:46:22.980><c> that</c><00:46:23.840><c> David</c><00:46:24.760><c> was</c><00:46:26.019><c> given</c><00:46:26.699><c> the</c><00:46:27.219><c> psalm.</c>

00:46:27.400 --> 00:46:31.500
Have<00:46:27.539><c> you</c><00:46:27.739><c> noticed</c><00:46:28.239><c> in</c><00:46:28.639><c> Psalms,</c><00:46:29.340><c> look</c><00:46:29.599><c> at</c><00:46:29.780><c> any</c><00:46:30.059><c> psalm,</c>

00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:35.199
and<00:46:32.519><c> you'll</c><00:46:33.059><c> see</c><00:46:33.320><c> the</c><00:46:33.559><c> title,</c><00:46:34.059><c> just</c><00:46:34.059><c> turn</c><00:46:34.480><c> up</c><00:46:34.639><c> the</c><00:46:34.860><c> psalms.</c>

00:46:35.619 --> 00:46:37.619
The<00:46:35.619><c> first</c><00:46:35.900><c> one,</c><00:46:36.300><c> Psalm</c><00:46:36.519><c> 4.</c>

00:46:39.199 --> 00:46:41.059
Try<00:46:39.739><c> Psalm</c><00:46:40.099><c> 4.</c>

00:46:41.579 --> 00:46:43.659
And<00:46:41.719><c> we</c><00:46:41.820><c> have</c><00:46:41.940><c> this</c><00:46:42.199><c> expression</c><00:46:42.539><c> to</c><00:46:42.739><c> the</c><00:46:42.900><c> chief</c><00:46:43.119><c> musician</c>

00:46:43.659 --> 00:46:45.199
upon<00:46:44.400><c> Neganoth.</c>

00:46:45.199 --> 00:46:49.139
No<00:46:45.639><c> one</c><00:46:45.880><c> quite</c><00:46:46.239><c> knows</c><00:46:46.699><c> exactly</c><00:46:47.519><c> what</c><00:46:48.219><c> this</c><00:46:48.599><c> chief</c><00:46:48.739><c> musician</c>

00:46:49.139 --> 00:46:49.840
was<00:46:49.420><c> about.</c>

00:46:50.179 --> 00:46:53.079
Brother<00:46:50.340><c> Lane</c><00:46:50.559><c> Ritmeyer</c><00:46:51.199><c> has</c><00:46:51.559><c> a</c><00:46:51.739><c> completely</c><00:46:52.139><c> different</c><00:46:52.460><c> way</c>

00:46:53.079 --> 00:46:54.239
of<00:46:53.380><c> translating</c><00:46:53.900><c> that.</c>

00:46:54.440 --> 00:46:57.719
He<00:46:54.440><c> says,</c><00:46:55.119><c> it</c><00:46:55.119><c> actually</c><00:46:55.559><c> means</c><00:46:55.820><c> to</c><00:46:55.980><c> him</c><00:46:56.139><c> that</c><00:46:56.460><c> overcomeeth.</c>

00:46:57.739 --> 00:46:59.179
And<00:46:57.940><c> it's</c><00:46:58.059><c> not</c><00:46:58.280><c> to</c><00:46:58.460><c> a</c><00:46:58.559><c> chief</c><00:46:58.739><c> musician.</c>

00:46:59.199 --> 00:47:00.619
There<00:46:59.500><c> never</c><00:46:59.659><c> was</c><00:46:59.920><c> such</c><00:47:00.159><c> a</c><00:47:00.340><c> person.</c>

00:47:00.699 --> 00:47:02.280
There's<00:47:00.980><c> no</c><00:47:01.219><c> role</c><00:47:01.420><c> of</c><00:47:01.619><c> chief</c><00:47:01.820><c> musician.</c>

00:47:02.719 --> 00:47:04.320
It's<00:47:03.280><c> not</c><00:47:03.440><c> a</c><00:47:03.579><c> good</c><00:47:03.739><c> translation.</c>

00:47:04.500 --> 00:47:07.059
It<00:47:04.619><c> is</c><00:47:04.940><c> about</c><00:47:05.360><c> to</c><00:47:05.719><c> him</c><00:47:05.840><c> that</c><00:47:06.179><c> overcomeeth.</c>

00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:10.440
And<00:47:07.579><c> it's</c><00:47:07.699><c> speaking</c><00:47:08.000><c> primarily</c><00:47:08.719><c> about</c><00:47:09.239><c> the</c><00:47:09.400><c> Lord</c><00:47:09.559><c> Jesus</c><00:47:09.980><c> Christ.</c>

00:47:10.639 --> 00:47:12.280
It's<00:47:10.920><c> a</c><00:47:11.059><c> really</c><00:47:11.300><c> interesting</c><00:47:11.719><c> line</c><00:47:12.000><c> of</c><00:47:12.139><c> thought.</c>

00:47:12.280 --> 00:47:15.659
But<00:47:12.659><c> even</c><00:47:12.840><c> though</c><00:47:12.980><c> it's</c><00:47:13.019><c> meant</c><00:47:13.139><c> as</c><00:47:13.400><c> a</c><00:47:13.559><c> psalm</c><00:47:13.880><c> of</c><00:47:14.119><c> David,</c>

00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:20.940
that<00:47:17.099><c> word</c><00:47:17.360><c> of</c><00:47:17.900><c> can</c><00:47:18.340><c> equally</c><00:47:18.800><c> be</c><00:47:19.139><c> translated</c><00:47:19.719><c> for.</c>

00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:22.780
Check<00:47:21.719><c> this</c><00:47:22.000><c> out.</c>

00:47:23.199 --> 00:47:27.539
It<00:47:23.219><c> can</c><00:47:23.480><c> just</c><00:47:23.719><c> as</c><00:47:23.960><c> easily</c><00:47:24.179><c> be</c><00:47:24.500><c> translated</c><00:47:25.000><c> as</c><00:47:25.280><c> a</c><00:47:25.519><c> psalm</c><00:47:26.320><c> for</c><00:47:27.000><c> David.</c>

00:47:27.599 --> 00:47:30.420
Now<00:47:27.780><c> why</c><00:47:27.960><c> do</c><00:47:28.139><c> you</c><00:47:28.239><c> assume</c><00:47:28.619><c> it's</c><00:47:28.940><c> of,</c><00:47:29.199><c> not</c><00:47:29.460><c> for?</c>

00:47:31.239 --> 00:47:33.440
Because<00:47:31.460><c> that's</c><00:47:31.960><c> the</c><00:47:32.039><c> way</c><00:47:32.159><c> we've</c><00:47:32.440><c> always</c><00:47:32.639><c> looked</c><00:47:32.860><c> at</c><00:47:32.960><c> it.</c>

00:51:13.519 --> 00:51:18.760

00:51:20.099 --> 00:51:23.019
And<00:51:20.500><c> then</c><00:51:20.780><c> we</c><00:51:21.079><c> begin</c><00:51:21.280><c> to</c><00:51:21.659><c> feel</c><00:51:21.860><c> them.</c>

00:51:23.460 --> 00:51:28.320
Then<00:51:23.659><c> we</c><00:51:23.880><c> begin</c><00:51:24.059><c> to</c><00:51:24.380><c> say,</c><00:51:25.659><c> I</c><00:51:25.699><c> think</c><00:51:25.960><c> I</c><00:51:26.119><c> know</c><00:51:26.320><c> how</c><00:51:26.519><c> Job</c><00:51:26.739><c> felt</c><00:51:27.059><c> now.</c>

00:51:28.699 --> 00:51:32.280
