00:00:13.419 --> 00:00:16.039
Our<00:00:13.599><c> second</c><00:00:13.859><c> period</c><00:00:14.199><c> speaker</c><00:00:14.580><c> is</c><00:00:14.939><c> our</c><00:00:15.099><c> brother,</c><00:00:15.419><c> Dennis</c><00:00:15.580><c> Bevins.</c>

00:00:16.539 --> 00:00:20.059

00:00:23.440 --> 00:00:24.699
Brother<00:00:23.559><c> Dennis?</c>

00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:30.559
Well,<00:00:29.359><c> good</c><00:00:29.559><c> morning.</c>

00:00:30.859 --> 00:00:35.380
It's<00:00:31.379><c> nice</c><00:00:31.600><c> to</c><00:00:31.820><c> see</c><00:00:32.000><c> everyone</c><00:00:32.320><c> so</c><00:00:32.859><c> well</c><00:00:33.200><c>-rested.</c>

00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:39.659
I<00:00:36.299><c> made</c><00:00:36.460><c> sure</c><00:00:36.759><c> it</c><00:00:36.840><c> wouldn't</c><00:00:37.079><c> be</c><00:00:37.399><c> offensive</c><00:00:37.920><c> to</c><00:00:38.899><c> Brother</c><00:00:39.280><c> Jim</c>

00:00:39.659 --> 00:00:42.259
and<00:00:39.920><c> decided</c><00:00:40.159><c> since</c><00:00:40.640><c> I</c><00:00:40.880><c> like</c><00:00:41.159><c> Genesis</c><00:00:41.520><c> 22</c><00:00:41.960><c> so</c><00:00:42.159><c> much,</c>

00:00:42.340 --> 00:00:43.840
we're<00:00:42.420><c> just</c><00:00:42.579><c> going</c><00:00:42.700><c> to</c><00:00:42.740><c> do</c><00:00:42.840><c> it</c><00:00:42.979><c> again.</c>

00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:45.240
No,<00:00:44.259><c> I'm</c><00:00:44.359><c> just</c><00:00:44.560><c> kidding.</c>

00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:48.100
Instead,<00:00:46.079><c> because</c><00:00:46.479><c> you're</c><00:00:46.719><c> all</c><00:00:47.020><c> so</c><00:00:47.399><c> well</c><00:00:47.700><c>-rested,</c>

00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.320
we<00:00:48.299><c> decided</c><00:00:48.619><c> to</c><00:00:48.880><c> do</c><00:00:49.320><c> two</c><00:00:49.740><c> classes</c><00:00:50.320><c> combined</c><00:00:50.899><c> in</c><00:00:51.159><c> one</c>

00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:52.920
at<00:00:51.479><c> the</c><00:00:51.740><c> speed</c><00:00:51.859><c> of</c><00:00:52.200><c> light.</c>

00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:56.859
So<00:00:54.880><c> I</c><00:00:55.320><c> want</c><00:00:55.500><c> to</c><00:00:55.700><c> start</c><00:00:55.840><c> with</c><00:00:56.020><c> some</c><00:00:56.340><c> highlights.</c>

00:00:57.219 --> 00:00:59.079
We<00:00:57.479><c> are</c><00:00:57.759><c> going</c><00:00:57.880><c> to</c><00:00:58.060><c> skip</c><00:00:58.259><c> a</c><00:00:58.340><c> bunch</c><00:00:58.579><c> of</c><00:00:58.820><c> verses.</c>

00:00:59.140 --> 00:01:01.119
There's<00:00:59.420><c> way</c><00:00:59.640><c> too</c><00:00:59.820><c> much</c><00:01:00.020><c> material</c><00:01:00.359><c> for</c><00:01:00.539><c> us</c><00:01:00.679><c> to</c><00:01:00.799><c> do</c><00:01:00.899><c> this</c>

00:01:01.119 --> 00:01:01.740
verse<00:01:01.299><c> by</c><00:01:01.520><c> verse.</c>

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:03.240
We're<00:01:02.020><c> going</c><00:01:02.140><c> to</c><00:01:02.219><c> try</c><00:01:02.340><c> to</c><00:01:02.439><c> pick</c><00:01:02.619><c> up</c><00:01:02.759><c> the</c><00:01:02.979><c> highlights,</c>

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.379
and<00:01:03.439><c> I</c><00:01:03.539><c> think</c><00:01:03.700><c> we</c><00:01:04.540><c> can</c><00:01:04.640><c> do</c><00:01:04.859><c> it</c><00:01:05.019><c> in</c><00:01:05.120><c> the</c><00:01:05.299><c> time</c><00:01:05.500><c> allotted.</c>

00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:09.560
But<00:01:07.859><c> I</c><00:01:08.040><c> do</c><00:01:08.180><c> want</c><00:01:08.319><c> to</c><00:01:08.439><c> make</c><00:01:08.560><c> sure</c><00:01:08.739><c> we</c><00:01:08.920><c> put</c><00:01:09.019><c> the</c><00:01:09.260><c> focus</c>

00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:11.060
where<00:01:09.780><c> God</c><00:01:10.120><c> has</c><00:01:10.359><c> put</c><00:01:10.480><c> the</c><00:01:10.719><c> focus,</c>

00:01:11.060 --> 00:01:14.120
and<00:01:11.260><c> that</c><00:01:11.420><c> is</c><00:01:11.640><c> that</c><00:01:11.840><c> the</c><00:01:12.060><c> death</c><00:01:12.299><c> and</c><00:01:12.540><c> burial</c><00:01:12.859><c> of</c><00:01:13.239><c> Sarah</c>

00:01:14.500 --> 00:01:18.280
is<00:01:14.939><c> an</c><00:01:15.239><c> unusual</c><00:01:15.900><c> event</c><00:01:16.439><c> in</c><00:01:16.719><c> Scripture</c><00:01:17.060><c> to</c><00:01:17.359><c> record.</c>

00:01:18.299 --> 00:01:20.079
So<00:01:18.739><c> far</c><00:01:19.079><c> in</c><00:01:19.239><c> the</c><00:01:19.379><c> Genesis</c><00:01:19.640><c> account,</c>

00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:22.560
it<00:01:20.239><c> has</c><00:01:20.480><c> not</c><00:01:20.799><c> been</c><00:01:21.060><c> done</c><00:01:21.280><c> yet</c><00:01:21.599><c> at</c><00:01:21.760><c> all.</c>

00:01:22.900 --> 00:01:26.200
In<00:01:23.000><c> fact,</c><00:01:23.500><c> there</c><00:01:23.500><c> are</c><00:01:23.739><c> no</c><00:01:23.939><c> deaths</c><00:01:24.260><c> recorded</c><00:01:24.859><c> for</c><00:01:25.140><c> Eve,</c>

00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:29.079
for<00:01:26.500><c> Mrs.</c><00:01:26.980><c> Noah,</c><00:01:27.700><c> for</c><00:01:27.900><c> the</c><00:01:28.060><c> wives</c><00:01:28.359><c> of</c><00:01:28.719><c> Seth,</c>

00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:30.980
Enos,<00:01:30.099><c> Enoch,</c><00:01:30.560><c> et</c><00:01:30.700><c> cetera.</c>

00:01:31.299 --> 00:01:34.019
In<00:01:31.500><c> fact,</c><00:01:31.819><c> the</c><00:01:31.959><c> only</c><00:01:32.400><c> female</c><00:01:32.879><c> death</c><00:01:33.200><c> we</c><00:01:33.379><c> can</c><00:01:33.620><c> think</c><00:01:33.840><c> of</c>

00:01:34.019 --> 00:01:35.840
to<00:01:34.200><c> this</c><00:01:34.480><c> point</c><00:01:34.659><c> in</c><00:01:34.819><c> the</c><00:01:34.980><c> Genesis</c><00:01:35.260><c> account</c>

00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.799
is<00:01:36.760><c> Lot's</c><00:01:37.319><c> unnamed</c><00:01:37.780><c> wife.</c>

00:01:40.140 --> 00:01:42.560
This<00:01:40.480><c> is</c><00:01:40.799><c> done</c><00:01:41.040><c> for</c><00:01:41.280><c> I'm</c><00:01:41.500><c> sure</c><00:01:41.719><c> a</c><00:01:41.819><c> lot</c><00:01:42.060><c> of</c><00:01:42.260><c> reasons,</c>

00:01:42.620 --> 00:01:44.640
but<00:01:42.840><c> certainly</c><00:01:43.200><c> one</c><00:01:43.480><c> must</c><00:01:43.780><c> be</c><00:01:44.019><c> that</c><00:01:44.159><c> she</c><00:01:44.420><c> was</c>

00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:46.379
an<00:01:45.040><c> extraordinary</c><00:01:45.780><c> woman.</c>

00:01:46.379 --> 00:01:50.500
And<00:01:47.359><c> because</c><00:01:47.819><c> she</c><00:01:48.200><c> represents</c><00:01:49.260><c> the</c><00:01:49.819><c> so</c><00:01:50.180><c>-called</c>

00:01:50.500 --> 00:01:52.799
Abrahamic<00:01:51.200><c> covenant,</c><00:01:51.739><c> as</c><00:01:51.739><c> we've</c><00:01:52.099><c> tried</c><00:01:52.260><c> to</c><00:01:52.500><c> rename</c>

00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:54.459
over<00:01:53.079><c> the</c><00:01:53.219><c> course</c><00:01:53.439><c> of</c><00:01:53.620><c> the</c><00:01:53.719><c> last</c><00:01:53.980><c> few</c><00:01:54.200><c> days</c>

00:01:54.459 --> 00:01:56.180
the<00:01:54.640><c> Saraiac</c><00:01:55.180><c> covenant,</c>

00:01:56.260 --> 00:01:58.480
although<00:01:56.439><c> I</c><00:01:57.239><c> am</c><00:01:57.359><c> assuming</c><00:01:57.840><c> that</c><00:01:58.099><c> will</c><00:01:58.239><c> have</c>

00:01:58.480 --> 00:01:59.680
no<00:01:58.739><c> lasting</c><00:01:59.120><c> success.</c>

00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:02.299
Indeed,<00:02:00.739><c> it</c><00:02:00.819><c> is</c><00:02:01.099><c> easier</c><00:02:01.420><c> to</c><00:02:01.700><c> say</c><00:02:01.840><c> and</c><00:02:02.140><c> think</c>

00:02:02.299 --> 00:02:03.939
what<00:02:02.439><c> we</c><00:02:02.680><c> always</c><00:02:03.040><c> have.</c>

00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:06.859
However,<00:02:04.799><c> with</c><00:02:05.000><c> the</c><00:02:05.280><c> emphasis</c><00:02:05.640><c> noted</c><00:02:06.180><c> on</c><00:02:06.560><c> the</c>

00:02:06.859 --> 00:02:08.480
motherhood<00:02:07.200><c> of</c><00:02:07.379><c> the</c><00:02:07.659><c> seed,</c>

00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:10.400
she<00:02:08.939><c> represents</c><00:02:09.460><c> the</c><00:02:09.740><c> hope</c><00:02:09.879><c> of</c><00:02:10.060><c> Israel,</c>

00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:11.759
which<00:02:10.659><c> indeed</c><00:02:10.919><c> was</c><00:02:11.139><c> dead</c><00:02:11.379><c> and</c><00:02:11.560><c> buried</c>

00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:14.319
amongst<00:02:12.080><c> the</c><00:02:12.319><c> Gentiles</c><00:02:12.840><c> in</c><00:02:13.120><c> AD</c><00:02:13.379><c> 70.</c>

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.340
So<00:02:15.680><c> let's</c><00:02:16.039><c> begin</c><00:02:16.539><c> by</c><00:02:16.800><c> picking</c><00:02:17.080><c> up</c>

00:02:17.340 --> 00:02:20.580

00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.099
where<00:02:20.979><c> Sarah</c><00:02:21.180><c> was</c><00:02:21.419><c> 107</c><00:02:22.240><c> and</c><00:02:22.419><c> 20</c><00:02:22.620><c> years</c><00:02:22.919><c> old,</c>

00:02:23.180 --> 00:02:25.580

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.400
So<00:02:25.780><c> on</c><00:02:25.939><c> the</c><00:02:26.139><c> timeline</c><00:02:26.479><c> we</c><00:02:26.699><c> have</c><00:02:26.900><c> Abraham</c><00:02:27.340><c> at</c><00:02:27.560><c> 137,</c>

00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:31.240
Isaac<00:02:29.139><c> would</c><00:02:29.319><c> be</c><00:02:29.479><c> 37</c><00:02:30.000><c> years</c><00:02:30.340><c> old,</c>

00:02:31.580 --> 00:02:35.800
but<00:02:31.840><c> what's</c><00:02:32.280><c> interesting</c><00:02:32.860><c> is</c><00:02:33.400><c> Sarah</c><00:02:33.800><c> is</c><00:02:34.159><c> the</c><00:02:34.599><c> only</c><00:02:35.300><c> woman</c>

00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.919
where<00:02:39.219><c> we</c><00:02:39.520><c> have</c><00:02:39.939><c> her</c><00:02:40.340><c> age</c><00:02:40.680><c> at</c><00:02:40.939><c> death.</c>

00:02:42.620 --> 00:02:45.300
No<00:02:43.199><c> other</c><00:02:43.580><c> woman</c><00:02:43.979><c> in</c><00:02:44.180><c> the</c><00:02:44.419><c> entire</c><00:02:44.800><c> record</c>

00:02:45.300 --> 00:02:48.719
do<00:02:45.979><c> we</c><00:02:46.180><c> have</c><00:02:46.419><c> the</c><00:02:46.759><c> age</c><00:02:47.280><c> at</c><00:02:47.879><c> death.</c>

00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:50.520
Now,<00:02:48.819><c> there's</c><00:02:49.120><c> a</c><00:02:49.219><c> lot</c><00:02:49.400><c> of</c><00:02:49.599><c> reasons</c><00:02:49.979><c> for</c><00:02:50.240><c> that.</c>

00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:53.240
The<00:02:50.740><c> most</c><00:02:51.060><c> important</c><00:02:51.620><c> one</c><00:02:51.900><c> is</c><00:02:52.099><c> that</c><00:02:52.259><c> in</c><00:02:52.500><c> genealogies,</c>

00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:57.979
the<00:02:53.460><c> name</c><00:02:53.740><c> of</c><00:02:53.979><c> the</c><00:02:54.159><c> man</c><00:02:54.919><c> includes</c><00:02:55.699><c> the</c><00:02:56.060><c> name</c><00:02:56.360><c> of</c><00:02:56.599><c> the</c><00:02:57.060><c> wife.</c>

00:02:58.099 --> 00:03:00.099
In<00:02:58.300><c> Genesis</c><00:02:58.659><c> chapter</c><00:02:58.979><c> 5</c><00:02:59.300><c> we</c><00:02:59.419><c> were</c><00:02:59.639><c> told</c><00:02:59.819><c> that</c>

00:03:00.099 --> 00:03:02.800
God<00:03:00.539><c> called</c><00:03:01.180><c> their</c><00:03:01.960><c> name</c><00:03:02.439><c> Adam,</c>

00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:06.280
which<00:03:03.060><c> is</c><00:03:03.259><c> the</c><00:03:03.460><c> first</c><00:03:03.680><c> genealogy</c><00:03:04.319><c> recorded</c><00:03:04.719><c> in</c><00:03:04.939><c> Scripture,</c>

00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:08.199
leading<00:03:07.039><c> to</c><00:03:07.240><c> the</c><00:03:07.419><c> line.</c>

00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:10.819
So<00:03:08.979><c> that's</c><00:03:09.500><c> one</c><00:03:09.639><c> of</c><00:03:09.719><c> the</c><00:03:09.800><c> reasons</c><00:03:10.199><c> that</c><00:03:10.400><c> we</c><00:03:10.520><c> don't</c>

00:03:10.819 --> 00:03:12.080
get<00:03:11.039><c> the</c><00:03:11.280><c> detail</c><00:03:11.620><c> on</c><00:03:11.800><c> the</c><00:03:11.919><c> woman.</c>

00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:15.719
The<00:03:12.379><c> details</c><00:03:12.860><c> of</c><00:03:13.120><c> the</c><00:03:13.300><c> man</c><00:03:13.479><c> represent</c><00:03:13.919><c> the</c><00:03:14.159><c> details</c><00:03:14.479><c> of</c><00:03:14.680><c> the</c><00:03:14.879><c> marriage.</c>

00:03:16.099 --> 00:03:17.360
So<00:03:16.259><c> knowing</c><00:03:16.500><c> that's</c><00:03:16.960><c> the</c><00:03:17.080><c> case,</c>

00:03:17.379 --> 00:03:19.680
whenever<00:03:17.639><c> we</c><00:03:17.860><c> see</c><00:03:18.000><c> a</c><00:03:18.159><c> woman</c><00:03:18.360><c> mentioned</c><00:03:18.659><c> in</c><00:03:18.840><c> a</c><00:03:18.979><c> genealogy,</c>

00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:22.139
or<00:03:19.960><c> in</c><00:03:20.060><c> this</c><00:03:20.340><c> case</c><00:03:20.620><c> her</c><00:03:20.979><c> age</c><00:03:21.439><c> at</c><00:03:21.800><c> death,</c>

00:03:22.460 --> 00:03:25.400
it<00:03:22.659><c> tells</c><00:03:22.919><c> us,</c><00:03:23.680><c> look,</c><00:03:23.840><c> this</c><00:03:24.319><c> is</c><00:03:24.919><c> special,</c>

00:03:25.580 --> 00:03:29.419
because<00:03:25.919><c> this</c><00:03:26.199><c> is</c><00:03:26.599><c> abnormal</c><00:03:27.180><c> for</c><00:03:27.639><c> the</c><00:03:27.919><c> scriptural</c><00:03:28.439><c> account.</c>

00:03:30.659 --> 00:03:32.639
We<00:03:30.800><c> note</c><00:03:31.020><c> she</c><00:03:31.240><c> died</c><00:03:31.560><c> in</c><00:03:31.840><c> Kurjath</c><00:03:32.300><c> Arba,</c>

00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:35.000
the<00:03:32.979><c> same</c><00:03:33.199><c> as</c><00:03:33.400><c> Hebron</c><00:03:33.759><c> in</c><00:03:33.900><c> the</c><00:03:33.960><c> land</c><00:03:34.219><c> of</c><00:03:34.479><c> Canaan,</c>

00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:38.240
and<00:03:35.460><c> Abram</c><00:03:35.639><c> came</c><00:03:35.939><c> to</c><00:03:36.099><c> mourn</c><00:03:36.259><c> for</c><00:03:36.520><c> Sarah</c><00:03:36.699><c> and</c><00:03:36.879><c> to</c><00:03:37.020><c> weep</c><00:03:37.159><c> for</c><00:03:37.360><c> her.</c>

00:03:38.659 --> 00:03:42.780
So<00:03:39.180><c> Kurjath</c><00:03:39.699><c> Arba</c><00:03:40.159><c> literally</c><00:03:40.840><c> means</c><00:03:41.159><c> the</c><00:03:41.400><c> city</c><00:03:41.659><c> of</c><00:03:41.939><c> four.</c>

00:03:42.819 --> 00:03:45.539
Perhaps<00:03:43.199><c> the</c><00:03:43.479><c> caribou,</c><00:03:44.039><c> it's</c><00:03:44.300><c> a</c><00:03:44.379><c> nice</c><00:03:44.639><c> thought.</c>

00:03:46.300 --> 00:03:47.819
Well,<00:03:46.439><c> while</c><00:03:46.580><c> we're</c><00:03:46.800><c> thinking,</c><00:03:47.099><c> just</c><00:03:47.300><c> for</c><00:03:47.500><c> a</c><00:03:47.659><c> moment,</c>

00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:50.280
why<00:03:48.080><c> don't</c><00:03:48.199><c> we</c><00:03:48.439><c> think</c><00:03:48.639><c> about</c><00:03:48.919><c> New</c><00:03:49.159><c> Jerusalem,</c>

00:03:50.460 --> 00:03:51.860
taken<00:03:50.680><c> from</c><00:03:50.919><c> Galatians</c><00:03:51.419><c> 4,</c>

00:03:52.020 --> 00:03:55.740
which<00:03:52.219><c> is</c><00:03:52.439><c> noted</c><00:03:52.680><c> as</c><00:03:53.060><c> four</c><00:03:53.419><c> square</c><00:03:54.099><c> in</c><00:03:54.560><c> Revelation</c><00:03:55.060><c> 21.</c>

00:03:56.020 --> 00:04:00.199
So<00:03:56.259><c> we're</c><00:03:56.479><c> just</c><00:03:56.719><c> trying</c><00:03:56.879><c> to</c><00:03:57.000><c> put</c><00:03:57.199><c> our</c><00:03:57.539><c> minds</c><00:03:57.939><c> to</c><00:03:58.560><c> the</c><00:03:58.840><c> kingdom</c><00:03:59.139><c> age.</c>

00:04:00.780 --> 00:04:02.759
See,<00:04:01.139><c> Sarah</c><00:04:01.560><c> may</c><00:04:02.000><c> be</c><00:04:02.259><c> dead,</c>

00:04:03.259 --> 00:04:05.500
but<00:04:03.680><c> she</c><00:04:03.960><c> has</c><00:04:04.360><c> hope</c><00:04:04.759><c> of</c><00:04:05.259><c> life,</c>

00:04:05.500 --> 00:04:07.340
and<00:04:05.680><c> we</c><00:04:05.919><c> know</c><00:04:06.180><c> she</c><00:04:06.360><c> will</c><00:04:06.520><c> be</c><00:04:06.680><c> in</c><00:04:06.800><c> the</c><00:04:06.979><c> kingdom.</c>

00:04:07.340 --> 00:04:09.960
And<00:04:07.819><c> that's</c><00:04:08.060><c> where</c><00:04:08.219><c> we</c><00:04:08.360><c> need</c><00:04:08.500><c> to</c><00:04:08.740><c> keep</c><00:04:08.860><c> our</c><00:04:09.180><c> focus</c><00:04:09.500><c> on</c><00:04:09.740><c> her</c>

00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:13.000
as<00:04:10.219><c> we</c><00:04:10.479><c> bury</c><00:04:10.719><c> her</c><00:04:11.159><c> this</c><00:04:11.800><c> morning.</c>

00:04:13.979 --> 00:04:15.419
Abraham<00:04:13.979><c> stood</c><00:04:14.219><c> up</c><00:04:14.479><c> before</c><00:04:14.819><c> his</c><00:04:15.120><c> dead</c>

00:04:15.419 --> 00:04:18.040
and<00:04:15.919><c> spake</c><00:04:16.139><c> unto</c><00:04:16.319><c> the</c><00:04:16.459><c> sons</c><00:04:16.699><c> of</c><00:04:16.920><c> Heth,</c><00:04:17.160><c> the</c><00:04:17.300><c> Hittites,</c>

00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.519
saying,<00:04:18.639><c> I'm</c><00:04:18.740><c> a</c><00:04:18.939><c> stranger</c><00:04:19.240><c> and</c><00:04:19.420><c> a</c><00:04:19.560><c> sojourner</c><00:04:20.000><c> with</c><00:04:20.240><c> you.</c>

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.540
Give<00:04:20.720><c> me</c><00:04:20.920><c> a</c><00:04:21.120><c> possession</c><00:04:21.379><c> of</c><00:04:21.579><c> a</c><00:04:21.699><c> burying</c><00:04:21.959><c> place</c><00:04:22.199><c> with</c><00:04:22.420><c> you</c>

00:04:22.540 --> 00:04:24.879
that<00:04:22.660><c> I</c><00:04:22.819><c> might</c><00:04:22.980><c> bury</c><00:04:23.199><c> my</c><00:04:23.439><c> dead</c><00:04:23.519><c> out</c><00:04:23.680><c> of</c><00:04:23.819><c> my</c><00:04:24.100><c> sight.</c>

00:04:25.100 --> 00:04:27.779
So<00:04:25.319><c> the</c><00:04:25.540><c> whole</c><00:04:25.819><c> land</c><00:04:26.139><c> was</c><00:04:26.399><c> Abraham's</c><00:04:26.980><c> by</c><00:04:27.199><c> promise,</c>

00:04:28.139 --> 00:04:32.420
yet<00:04:28.500><c> money</c><00:04:28.899><c> was</c><00:04:29.160><c> required</c><00:04:29.620><c> for</c><00:04:29.819><c> the</c><00:04:30.019><c> purchase</c><00:04:30.560><c> of</c><00:04:31.180><c> this</c><00:04:31.480><c> cave.</c>

00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:34.600
It<00:04:33.399><c> was</c><00:04:33.639><c> not</c><00:04:33.920><c> his</c><00:04:34.160><c> yet.</c>

00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:37.459

There<00:06:50.899><c> are</c><00:06:51.240><c> gaps</c><00:06:51.639><c> in</c><00:06:51.819><c> his</c><00:06:52.120><c> life.</c>

00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.160
Just<00:06:52.560><c> like</c><00:06:52.720><c> we</c><00:06:52.920><c> mentioned,</c><00:06:53.120><c> there</c><00:06:53.240><c> are</c><00:06:53.560><c> gaps</c><00:06:53.860><c> in</c><00:06:54.019><c> the</c><00:06:54.160><c> life</c><00:06:54.339><c> of</c><00:06:54.620><c> Abram.</c>

00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.240
There<00:06:55.439><c> are</c><00:06:55.759><c> gaps</c><00:06:56.040><c> in</c><00:06:56.240><c> the</c><00:06:56.339><c> life</c><00:06:56.500><c> of</c><00:06:56.740><c> Christ</c>

00:06:59.620 --> 00:07:02.660
God<00:06:59.959><c> only</c><00:07:00.560><c> shares</c><00:07:00.939><c> what</c><00:07:01.220><c> we</c><00:07:01.620><c> need</c><00:07:01.939><c> to</c><00:07:02.199><c> know</c>

00:07:02.660 --> 00:07:05.439

00:07:06.980 --> 00:07:09.139
We<00:07:07.079><c> recall</c><00:07:07.480><c> Isaac</c><00:07:07.920><c> as</c><00:07:08.120><c> a</c><00:07:08.279><c> type</c><00:07:08.480><c> of</c><00:07:08.680><c> Christ.</c>

00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:11.879
We<00:07:09.720><c> spent</c><00:07:09.899><c> a</c><00:07:10.040><c> lot</c><00:07:10.139><c> of</c><00:07:10.279><c> time</c><00:07:10.420><c> focusing</c><00:07:10.800><c> on</c><00:07:11.139><c> this</c><00:07:11.560><c> seed</c>

00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:14.480

the<00:07:14.699><c> birth</c><00:07:14.899><c> of</c><00:07:15.199><c> literally</c><00:07:15.600><c> Isaac,</c>

00:07:16.300 --> 00:07:18.120
but<00:07:16.459><c> more</c><00:07:16.720><c> importantly,</c><00:07:17.259><c> the</c><00:07:17.459><c> seed</c><00:07:17.660><c> that</c><00:07:17.839><c> would</c>

00:07:19.860 --> 00:07:22.279
that<00:07:20.000><c> we</c><00:07:20.240><c> spent</c><00:07:20.540><c> many</c><00:07:20.939><c> a</c><00:07:21.160><c> time</c><00:07:21.360><c> in</c><00:07:21.660><c> Galatians</c><00:07:22.000><c> 3</c>

00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:40.740
We<00:07:39.180><c> note</c><00:07:39.360><c> this</c><00:07:39.660><c> story</c><00:07:39.939><c> is</c><00:07:40.160><c> taking</c><00:07:40.379><c> place</c>

00:07:40.740 --> 00:07:42.600
three<00:07:41.019><c> years</c><00:07:41.300><c> after</c><00:07:41.600><c> the</c><00:07:41.720><c> death</c><00:07:41.959><c> of</c><00:07:42.240><c> Sarah,</c>

00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:48.360
As<00:07:46.339><c> the</c><00:07:46.560><c> bride,</c><00:07:46.839><c> we</c><00:07:46.939><c> must</c><00:07:47.259><c> likewise</c><00:07:47.800><c> prepare</c>

to<00:07:56.360><c> tell</c><00:07:56.459><c> us</c><00:07:57.139><c> it's</c><00:07:57.420><c> time</c><00:07:57.660><c> to</c><00:07:57.779><c> go</c><00:07:58.019><c> see</c><00:07:58.160><c> our</c><00:07:58.439><c> Lord</c>

00:07:58.699 --> 00:08:01.319

00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:03.259
that<00:08:01.779><c> preparation</c><00:08:02.300><c> must</c><00:08:02.540><c> be</c><00:08:02.759><c> done</c><00:08:02.939><c> so</c><00:08:03.120><c> that</c>

we<00:08:03.339><c> can</c><00:08:03.500><c> make</c><00:08:03.680><c> that</c><00:08:03.939><c> decision</c><00:08:04.259><c> willingly.</c>

00:08:06.939 --> 00:08:08.959
Also,<00:08:07.579><c> the</c><00:08:07.680><c> reason</c><00:08:07.939><c> this</c><00:08:08.199><c> topic</c><00:08:08.519><c> was</c><00:08:08.740><c> given</c>

00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:10.379
on<00:08:09.120><c> the</c><00:08:09.319><c> last</c><00:08:09.540><c> day</c><00:08:09.740><c> for</c><00:08:09.920><c> the</c><00:08:10.160><c> teens</c>

00:08:10.379 --> 00:08:12.379
is<00:08:10.560><c> we</c><00:08:10.680><c> wanted</c><00:08:10.839><c> to</c><00:08:11.040><c> make</c><00:08:11.220><c> sure</c><00:08:11.399><c> we</c><00:08:11.560><c> didn't</c><00:08:11.920><c> promote</c>

00:08:12.379 --> 00:08:15.600
what<00:08:12.759><c> the</c><00:08:13.120><c> handbook</c><00:08:13.360><c> calls</c><00:08:13.720><c> Bible</c><00:08:14.160><c> school</c><00:08:14.519><c> romance,</c>

00:08:15.660 --> 00:08:19.540
so<00:08:15.879><c> we</c><00:08:16.199><c> saved</c><00:08:16.459><c> the</c><00:08:16.699><c> topic</c><00:08:17.019><c> of</c><00:08:17.319><c> marriage</c><00:08:17.920><c> for</c><00:08:18.439><c> the</c><00:08:18.680><c> end,</c>

00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:22.220
and<00:08:19.959><c> I</c><00:08:20.100><c> know</c><00:08:20.300><c> they</c><00:08:20.579><c> appreciated</c><00:08:21.160><c> that.</c>

00:08:24.379 --> 00:08:26.639
So<00:08:24.899><c> Abram</c><00:08:25.300><c> said</c><00:08:25.519><c> unto</c><00:08:25.680><c> his</c><00:08:25.980><c> eldest</c><00:08:26.360><c> servant</c>

00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:28.500
of<00:08:26.800><c> his</c><00:08:27.019><c> house</c><00:08:27.220><c> that</c><00:08:27.480><c> ruled</c><00:08:27.639><c> over</c><00:08:27.959><c> all</c><00:08:28.100><c> that</c><00:08:28.199><c> he</c><00:08:28.339><c> had,</c>

00:08:28.660 --> 00:08:31.180
Put,<00:08:28.959><c> I</c><00:08:28.959><c> pray</c><00:08:29.160><c> thee,</c><00:08:29.459><c> thy</c><00:08:29.600><c> hand</c><00:08:29.860><c> under</c><00:08:30.040><c> my</c><00:08:30.379><c> thigh.</c>

00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:33.980
So<00:08:31.920><c> it</c><00:08:32.379><c> probably</c><00:08:32.720><c> or</c><00:08:32.960><c> even</c><00:08:33.200><c> possibly</c><00:08:33.639><c> could</c><00:08:33.840><c> have</c>

00:08:33.980 --> 00:08:35.960
been<00:08:34.120><c> the</c><00:08:34.340><c> Eliezer</c><00:08:34.759><c> from</c><00:08:35.000><c> chapter</c><00:08:35.360><c> 15,</c>

00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:38.980
but<00:08:36.620><c> there</c><00:08:36.840><c> is</c><00:08:37.059><c> a</c><00:08:37.279><c> reason</c><00:08:37.720><c> we</c><00:08:37.919><c> don't</c><00:08:38.139><c> have</c><00:08:38.379><c> his</c><00:08:38.679><c> name.</c>

00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:42.559
He's<00:08:39.799><c> not</c><00:08:40.179><c> named</c><00:08:40.500><c> because</c><00:08:40.980><c> his</c><00:08:41.379><c> name</c><00:08:41.580><c> is</c><00:08:41.799><c> not</c><00:08:42.000><c> important,</c>

00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:46.740
but<00:08:43.179><c> he</c><00:08:43.419><c> represents</c><00:08:43.879><c> the</c><00:08:44.299><c> agents</c><00:08:44.879><c> teaching</c><00:08:46.100><c> the</c><00:08:46.440><c> truth.</c>

00:08:47.139 --> 00:08:48.980
Just<00:08:47.399><c> like</c><00:08:47.600><c> when</c><00:08:47.799><c> we</c><00:08:48.179><c> teach</c><00:08:48.419><c> the</c><00:08:48.700><c> truth,</c>

00:08:49.179 --> 00:08:50.240
our<00:08:49.419><c> name</c><00:08:49.559><c> is</c><00:08:49.779><c> irrelevant.</c>

00:08:50.500 --> 00:08:51.700
It's<00:08:50.960><c> calling</c><00:08:51.539><c> for</c><00:08:51.700><c> the</c><00:08:51.700><c> truth.</c>

00:08:51.700 --> 00:08:54.500
It's<00:08:51.779><c> for</c><00:08:52.039><c> God's</c><00:08:52.639><c> name</c><00:08:52.840><c> that</c><00:08:53.000><c> we</c><00:08:53.120><c> do</c><00:08:53.379><c> that.</c>

00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:56.879
So<00:08:55.039><c> he's</c><00:08:55.279><c> told</c><00:08:55.539><c> to</c><00:08:55.720><c> put</c><00:08:55.840><c> his</c><00:08:56.120><c> hand</c><00:08:56.320><c> at</c><00:08:56.480><c> the</c><00:08:56.679><c> source</c>

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:02.159
we've<00:09:00.440><c> had</c><00:09:00.580><c> this</c><00:09:00.840><c> week</c><00:09:01.100><c> about</c><00:09:01.360><c> the</c><00:09:01.820><c> importance</c>

00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:04.659

00:18:13.140 --> 00:18:14.759
Abraham<00:18:13.599><c> doesn't</c><00:18:13.900><c> know</c><00:18:14.099><c> who</c><00:18:14.279><c> that</c><00:18:14.539><c> is.</c>

00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:16.460
Isaac<00:18:15.319><c> doesn't</c><00:18:15.640><c> know</c><00:18:15.839><c> who</c><00:18:16.000><c> that</c><00:18:16.240><c> is.</c>

00:18:16.460 --> 00:18:18.640
This<00:18:16.700><c> unnamed</c><00:18:17.160><c> servant</c><00:18:17.480><c> doesn't</c><00:18:17.759><c> know</c><00:18:17.940><c> who</c><00:18:18.079><c> that</c><00:18:18.339><c> is.</c>

00:18:18.940 --> 00:18:20.839
Just<00:18:19.000><c> like</c><00:18:19.200><c> you</c><00:18:19.380><c> and</c><00:18:19.559><c> I,</c><00:18:19.680><c> when</c><00:18:19.799><c> we</c><00:18:19.980><c> see</c><00:18:20.119><c> a</c><00:18:20.380><c> seminar</c><00:18:20.559><c> effort,</c>

00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:22.019
we<00:18:21.000><c> don't</c><00:18:21.160><c> look</c><00:18:21.319><c> around</c><00:18:21.519><c> the</c><00:18:21.680><c> crowd</c><00:18:21.799><c> and</c><00:18:21.920><c> go,</c>

00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:23.279
yep,<00:18:22.279><c> that's</c><00:18:22.579><c> the</c><00:18:22.700><c> one,</c><00:18:22.779><c> that's</c><00:18:23.099><c> the</c><00:18:23.180><c> one.</c>

00:18:23.380 --> 00:18:24.779
Oh,<00:18:23.460><c> they</c><00:18:23.619><c> don't</c><00:18:23.759><c> have</c><00:18:23.880><c> a</c><00:18:24.039><c> chance.</c>

00:18:24.819 --> 00:18:26.640
Good<00:18:25.180><c> thing</c><00:18:25.539><c> we</c><00:18:25.779><c> don't.</c>

00:18:26.859 --> 00:18:28.599
Because<00:18:27.180><c> you</c><00:18:27.440><c> probably</c><00:18:27.740><c> wouldn't</c><00:18:27.980><c> have</c><00:18:28.160><c> picked</c><00:18:28.299><c> me,</c>

00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:29.960
and<00:18:28.740><c> I</c><00:18:28.920><c> doubt</c><00:18:29.059><c> I</c><00:18:29.119><c> would</c><00:18:29.259><c> have</c><00:18:29.460><c> picked</c><00:18:29.619><c> you.</c>

00:18:29.980 --> 00:18:32.920
Because<00:18:30.200><c> I</c><00:18:30.339><c> know</c><00:18:30.619><c> every</c><00:18:31.240><c> time</c><00:18:31.640><c> I've</c><00:18:32.160><c> sat</c><00:18:32.380><c> in</c><00:18:32.460><c> front</c><00:18:32.599><c> of</c><00:18:32.720><c> a</c>

00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:33.500
seminar<00:18:33.160><c> audience,</c>

00:18:33.619 --> 00:18:35.359
I<00:18:33.700><c> thought,</c><00:18:33.900><c> oh,</c><00:18:34.099><c> they're</c><00:18:34.339><c> so</c><00:18:34.640><c> sharp.</c>

00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:36.140
That's<00:18:35.759><c> the</c><00:18:35.940><c> one.</c>

00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:37.500
They're<00:18:36.660><c> gone</c><00:18:36.900><c> in</c><00:18:37.079><c> a</c><00:18:37.220><c> week.</c>

00:18:37.900 --> 00:18:39.559
It's<00:18:38.119><c> like</c><00:18:38.299><c> a</c><00:18:38.519><c> cursing</c><00:18:38.859><c> to</c><00:18:38.980><c> even</c><00:18:39.220><c> say</c><00:18:39.400><c> it.</c>

00:18:39.740 --> 00:18:41.180
And<00:18:39.960><c> the</c><00:18:40.099><c> one</c><00:18:40.259><c> that</c><00:18:40.460><c> fights</c><00:18:40.720><c> and</c><00:18:40.960><c> argues</c>

00:18:41.180 --> 00:18:42.660
and<00:18:41.339><c> looks</c><00:18:41.480><c> like</c><00:18:41.619><c> they're</c><00:18:41.779><c> not</c><00:18:42.000><c> even</c><00:18:42.220><c> interested</c>

00:18:42.660 --> 00:18:43.980
sticks<00:18:43.039><c> around</c><00:18:43.420><c> two</c><00:18:43.619><c> years</c><00:18:43.799><c> later.</c>

00:18:44.059 --> 00:18:45.619
You're<00:18:44.180><c> calling</c><00:18:44.460><c> him</c><00:18:44.579><c> your</c><00:18:44.779><c> brother</c><00:18:45.039><c> or</c><00:18:45.220><c> sister.</c>

00:18:45.619 --> 00:18:48.720
It's<00:18:46.559><c> a</c><00:18:46.680><c> good</c><00:18:46.859><c> thing</c><00:18:47.119><c> you</c><00:18:47.339><c> and</c><00:18:47.480><c> I</c><00:18:47.619><c> don't</c><00:18:47.839><c> get</c><00:18:48.019><c> to</c><00:18:48.180><c> check</c><00:18:48.359><c> the</c><00:18:48.539><c> box</c>

00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:50.960
and<00:18:48.920><c> say</c><00:18:49.039><c> they're</c><00:18:49.339><c> in</c><00:18:49.539><c> and</c><00:18:49.740><c> they're</c><00:18:50.079><c> out.</c>

00:18:51.019 --> 00:18:53.099
We<00:18:51.140><c> have</c><00:18:51.279><c> to</c><00:18:51.380><c> focus</c><00:18:51.640><c> on</c><00:18:51.839><c> why</c><00:18:52.079><c> God</c><00:18:52.319><c> called</c><00:18:52.680><c> me,</c>

00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:55.160
not<00:18:53.319><c> why</c><00:18:53.579><c> God</c><00:18:53.859><c> called</c><00:18:54.180><c> you.</c>

00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:56.660
They<00:18:55.680><c> didn't</c><00:18:55.960><c> have</c><00:18:56.220><c> a</c><00:18:56.420><c> name.</c>

00:18:57.000 --> 00:18:58.380
He<00:18:57.200><c> wasn't</c><00:18:57.500><c> sent</c><00:18:57.740><c> with</c><00:18:57.920><c> a</c><00:18:58.059><c> roster.</c>

00:18:58.539 --> 00:19:00.799
Hey,<00:18:58.900><c> there's</c><00:18:59.200><c> three</c><00:18:59.500><c> women</c><00:18:59.700><c> we've</c><00:19:00.059><c> narrowed</c><00:19:00.220><c> it</c><00:19:00.400><c> down</c><00:19:00.559><c> to.</c>

00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:01.579
Check<00:19:01.059><c> these</c><00:19:01.359><c> out.</c>

00:19:01.579 --> 00:19:02.240
Interview<00:19:01.980><c> him.</c>

00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:05.519
He's<00:19:02.980><c> going</c><00:19:03.220><c> blindly</c><00:19:03.740><c> into</c><00:19:04.059><c> a</c><00:19:04.259><c> land</c><00:19:04.400><c> he's</c><00:19:04.700><c> not</c><00:19:04.900><c> familiar</c><00:19:05.240><c> with,</c>

00:19:05.539 --> 00:19:07.259
to<00:19:05.759><c> a</c><00:19:05.920><c> family</c><00:19:06.140><c> he</c><00:19:06.339><c> doesn't</c><00:19:06.660><c> quite</c><00:19:06.980><c> know</c>

00:19:07.259 --> 00:19:09.259
because<00:19:07.380><c> he</c><00:19:07.500><c> can't</c><00:19:07.799><c> recognize</c><00:19:08.259><c> them</c><00:19:08.380><c> when</c><00:19:08.480><c> he</c><00:19:08.579><c> gets</c><00:19:08.779><c> there.</c>

00:19:09.640 --> 00:19:12.980
But<00:19:09.960><c> he</c><00:19:10.240><c> knows</c><00:19:10.640><c> that</c><00:19:10.920><c> God</c><00:19:11.220><c> can</c><00:19:11.799><c> and</c><00:19:12.059><c> will</c><00:19:12.420><c> deliver</c>

00:19:12.980 --> 00:19:15.039
if<00:19:13.539><c> he</c><00:19:13.680><c> just</c><00:19:13.960><c> puts</c><00:19:14.160><c> out</c><00:19:14.380><c> his</c><00:19:14.700><c> fleece</c>

00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:17.900
and<00:19:15.140><c> gives</c><00:19:15.380><c> God</c><00:19:15.619><c> some</c><00:19:15.920><c> parameters</c><00:19:16.339><c> to</c><00:19:16.579><c> work</c><00:19:16.799><c> with.</c>

00:19:18.220 --> 00:19:20.339
So<00:19:18.660><c> he</c><00:19:19.000><c> doesn't</c><00:19:19.259><c> go</c><00:19:19.460><c> into</c><00:19:19.680><c> a</c><00:19:19.799><c> little</c><00:19:20.019><c> corner</c>

00:19:20.339 --> 00:19:23.079
and<00:19:20.519><c> say,</c><00:19:20.819><c> well,</c><00:19:21.079><c> maybe</c><00:19:21.380><c> there's</c><00:19:21.680><c> the</c><00:19:21.940><c> perfect</c><00:19:22.279><c> bride</c><00:19:22.539><c> right</c><00:19:22.819><c> here.</c>

00:19:23.180 --> 00:19:25.140
I<00:19:23.200><c> wonder</c><00:19:23.420><c> if</c><00:19:23.619><c> that</c><00:19:23.680><c> will</c><00:19:23.799><c> bring</c><00:19:24.019><c> her</c><00:19:24.180><c> to</c><00:19:24.319><c> me.</c>

00:19:25.500 --> 00:19:27.180
That'd<00:19:25.859><c> be</c><00:19:26.039><c> ridiculous.</c>

00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:29.720
But<00:19:27.740><c> we</c><00:19:27.920><c> can</c><00:19:28.059><c> do</c><00:19:28.240><c> the</c><00:19:28.460><c> same</c><00:19:28.720><c> thing.</c>

00:19:29.819 --> 00:19:32.539
He<00:19:29.960><c> goes</c><00:19:30.220><c> to</c><00:19:30.380><c> the</c><00:19:30.460><c> most</c><00:19:30.819><c> public</c><00:19:31.299><c> place</c><00:19:31.660><c> he</c><00:19:31.839><c> can</c><00:19:32.099><c> find</c>

00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:34.980
Why?

00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:38.200
He's<00:19:35.759><c> giving</c><00:19:36.200><c> God</c><00:19:36.640><c> a</c><00:19:37.059><c> chance</c><00:19:37.400><c> to</c><00:19:37.579><c> do</c><00:19:37.740><c> the</c><00:19:37.920><c> work.</c>

00:19:38.460 --> 00:19:40.940
He<00:19:38.700><c> can't</c><00:19:39.000><c> do</c><00:19:39.220><c> this</c><00:19:39.400><c> in</c><00:19:39.519><c> a</c><00:19:39.619><c> little</c><00:19:39.859><c> box</c><00:19:40.200><c> or</c><00:19:40.339><c> in</c><00:19:40.519><c> a</c><00:19:40.660><c> corner.</c>

00:19:40.940 --> 00:19:43.000
He<00:19:41.380><c> goes</c><00:19:41.579><c> in</c><00:19:41.799><c> a</c><00:19:41.920><c> public</c><00:19:42.220><c> place</c><00:19:42.599><c> and</c><00:19:42.759><c> says,</c>

00:19:43.440 --> 00:19:45.779
OK,<00:19:43.559><c> here's</c><00:19:43.960><c> what</c><00:19:44.160><c> I</c><00:19:44.420><c> think</c><00:19:44.579><c> needs</c><00:19:44.819><c> to</c><00:19:45.059><c> happen.</c>

00:19:45.900 --> 00:19:48.119
God,<00:19:46.180><c> do</c><00:19:47.000><c> your</c><00:19:47.259><c> work.</c>

00:19:49.180 --> 00:19:50.599
He<00:19:49.279><c> has</c><00:19:49.519><c> the</c><00:19:49.740><c> attitude</c><00:19:50.079><c> of</c><00:19:50.339><c> seeking,</c>

00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:52.680
which<00:19:50.839><c> is</c><00:19:51.099><c> nice</c><00:19:51.319><c> and</c><00:19:51.559><c> fitting</c><00:19:51.720><c> that</c><00:19:51.839><c> he's</c><00:19:52.039><c> at</c><00:19:52.140><c> the</c><00:19:52.339><c> well.</c>

00:19:53.099 --> 00:19:54.819
For<00:19:53.240><c> at</c><00:19:53.420><c> John</c><00:19:53.660><c> 4</c><00:19:53.859><c> and</c><00:19:53.960><c> 14,</c><00:19:54.599><c> we</c><00:19:54.599><c> have,</c>

00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:56.900
whosoever<00:19:55.339><c> drinketh</c><00:19:55.680><c> the</c><00:19:55.859><c> water</c><00:19:56.099><c> that</c><00:19:56.220><c> I</c><00:19:56.480><c> shall</c><00:19:56.599><c> give</c><00:19:56.759><c> him</c>

00:19:58.140 --> 00:19:59.799
But<00:19:58.279><c> the</c><00:19:58.460><c> water</c><00:19:58.660><c> that</c><00:19:58.799><c> I</c><00:19:59.019><c> shall</c><00:19:59.180><c> give</c><00:19:59.400><c> him</c>

00:19:59.799 --> 00:20:01.859
shall<00:20:00.079><c> be</c><00:20:00.279><c> in</c><00:20:00.359><c> him</c><00:20:00.480><c> a</c><00:20:00.660><c> well</c><00:20:00.880><c> of</c><00:20:01.059><c> water</c><00:20:01.319><c> springing</c><00:20:01.720><c> up</c>

00:20:01.859 --> 00:20:03.559
unto<00:20:02.039><c> everlasting</c><00:20:02.579><c> life.</c>

00:20:03.740 --> 00:20:07.460
It's<00:20:04.119><c> not</c><00:20:04.640><c> just</c><00:20:05.299><c> a</c><00:20:05.559><c> marriage</c><00:20:05.880><c> that's</c><00:20:06.119><c> on</c><00:20:06.339><c> the</c><00:20:06.519><c> line.</c>

00:20:07.619 --> 00:20:10.140
God's<00:20:08.099><c> plan</c><00:20:08.400><c> is</c><00:20:08.619><c> being</c><00:20:08.880><c> developed</c><00:20:09.319><c> in</c><00:20:09.500><c> this</c><00:20:09.759><c> family,</c>

00:20:10.140 --> 00:20:12.420
and<00:20:10.299><c> it's</c><00:20:10.579><c> a</c><00:20:10.700><c> crescendo</c><00:20:11.200><c> that's</c><00:20:11.500><c> starting</c><00:20:11.799><c> to</c><00:20:12.099><c> grow.</c>

00:20:12.920 --> 00:20:15.019
And<00:20:13.039><c> this</c><00:20:13.299><c> one</c><00:20:13.619><c> seed</c><00:20:13.900><c> is</c><00:20:14.180><c> now</c><00:20:14.359><c> having</c><00:20:14.559><c> an</c><00:20:14.700><c> opportunity</c>

00:20:15.019 --> 00:20:18.279
to<00:20:15.319><c> add</c><00:20:15.539><c> to</c><00:20:15.740><c> the</c><00:20:15.960><c> seed</c><00:20:16.220><c> that</c><00:20:16.700><c> will</c><00:20:17.000><c> naturally</c><00:20:17.500><c> be</c><00:20:17.799><c> a</c><00:20:18.039><c> model</c>

00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:20.059
of<00:20:18.440><c> what</c><00:20:18.619><c> will</c><00:20:18.839><c> fill</c><00:20:18.980><c> the</c><00:20:19.240><c> earth.</c>

00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:24.380
It's<00:20:20.980><c> more</c><00:20:21.339><c> than</c><00:20:21.539><c> just</c><00:20:22.019><c> a</c><00:20:22.380><c> marriage</c><00:20:22.799><c> that</c><00:20:23.000><c> is</c><00:20:23.200><c> on</c><00:20:23.380><c> the</c><00:20:23.599><c> line.</c>

00:20:26.259 --> 00:20:29.160
So<00:20:26.460><c> at</c><00:20:26.680><c> verse</c><00:20:26.940><c> 12</c><00:20:27.259><c> of</c><00:20:27.480><c> Genesis</c><00:20:27.819><c> 24,</c><00:20:28.720><c> he</c><00:20:28.759><c> said,</c>

00:20:29.500 --> 00:20:32.359
O<00:20:29.500><c> Lord</c><00:20:29.819><c> God</c><00:20:30.079><c> of</c><00:20:30.240><c> my</c><00:20:30.400><c> master</c><00:20:30.799><c> Abraham,</c><00:20:31.440><c> I</c><00:20:31.539><c> pray</c><00:20:31.819><c> thee,</c>

00:20:32.779 --> 00:20:34.319
send<00:20:33.039><c> me</c><00:20:33.299><c> good</c><00:20:33.579><c> speed</c><00:20:33.839><c> this</c><00:20:34.140><c> day</c>

00:20:37.259 --> 00:20:38.980
I<00:20:37.579><c> think</c><00:20:37.779><c> it's</c><00:20:38.039><c> critical</c><00:20:38.420><c> that</c><00:20:38.599><c> we</c><00:20:38.839><c> see</c>

00:20:38.980 --> 00:20:41.359
there<00:20:39.099><c> was</c><00:20:39.299><c> nothing</c><00:20:39.619><c> in</c><00:20:39.799><c> it</c><00:20:39.920><c> for</c><00:20:40.039><c> him</c><00:20:40.279><c> in</c><00:20:40.440><c> this.</c>

00:20:41.579 --> 00:20:42.920
Just<00:20:41.779><c> like</c><00:20:41.980><c> in</c><00:20:42.119><c> a</c><00:20:42.339><c> seminar</c><00:20:42.619><c> effort,</c>

00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:43.859
when<00:20:43.079><c> we're</c><00:20:43.279><c> preaching</c><00:20:43.539><c> the</c><00:20:43.759><c> truth,</c>

00:20:43.880 --> 00:20:45.779
there's<00:20:44.119><c> nothing</c><00:20:44.299><c> in</c><00:20:44.420><c> it</c><00:20:44.579><c> for</c><00:20:44.720><c> me.</c>

00:20:46.079 --> 00:20:49.180
It's<00:20:46.339><c> an</c><00:20:46.480><c> opportunity</c><00:20:46.819><c> for</c><00:20:47.059><c> the</c><00:20:47.279><c> name</c><00:20:47.539><c> of</c><00:20:47.839><c> God</c><00:20:48.099><c> to</c><00:20:48.299><c> be</c><00:20:48.559><c> glorified,</c>

00:20:49.420 --> 00:20:52.299
an<00:20:49.619><c> opportunity</c><00:20:49.940><c> for</c><00:20:50.180><c> the</c><00:20:50.420><c> family</c><00:20:50.759><c> of</c><00:20:50.940><c> God</c><00:20:51.180><c> to</c><00:20:51.420><c> grow.</c>

00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:54.640
And<00:20:52.799><c> here</c><00:20:52.920><c> we</c><00:20:53.140><c> have</c><00:20:53.319><c> one</c><00:20:53.519><c> of</c><00:20:53.700><c> Abraham's</c><00:20:54.220><c> household,</c>

00:20:54.720 --> 00:20:58.200

00:24:37.819 --> 00:24:40.500

00:24:55.579 --> 00:24:57.519

00:25:09.420 --> 00:25:12.279

There<00:28:10.279><c> will</c><00:28:10.559><c> be</c><00:28:10.740><c> no</c><00:28:11.000><c> shortcuts</c><00:28:11.559><c> in</c><00:28:11.799><c> our</c><00:28:12.019><c> service</c><00:28:12.319><c> in</c><00:28:12.440><c> the</c><00:28:12.559><c> meeting.</c>

00:28:13.700 --> 00:28:16.839
He<00:28:13.880><c> does</c><00:28:14.140><c> not</c><00:28:14.339><c> ease</c><00:28:14.579><c> her</c><00:28:14.859><c> burden,</c><00:28:15.559><c> but</c><00:28:15.599><c> he</c><00:28:15.859><c> surrendered</c><00:28:16.220><c> to</c><00:28:16.539><c> prayer</c>

00:28:16.839 --> 00:28:20.500
and<00:28:17.220><c> patiently</c><00:28:17.640><c> accepted</c><00:28:18.359><c> what</c><00:28:18.599><c> God</c><00:28:18.839><c> has</c><00:28:19.099><c> brought</c><00:28:19.279><c> his</c><00:28:19.539><c> way.</c>

00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:23.220
And<00:28:21.319><c> we</c><00:28:21.539><c> compare</c><00:28:21.859><c> us</c><00:28:22.180><c> to</c><00:28:22.380><c> our</c><00:28:22.579><c> work</c><00:28:22.720><c> in</c><00:28:22.880><c> the</c><00:28:23.039><c> meeting.</c>

00:28:23.299 --> 00:28:26.279
And<00:28:23.380><c> at</c><00:28:23.519><c> the</c><00:28:23.759><c> least</c><00:28:24.059><c> hint</c><00:28:24.299><c> of</c><00:28:24.500><c> God's</c><00:28:24.960><c> hands,</c><00:28:25.579><c> we</c><00:28:25.779><c> oftentimes</c>

00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:27.680
want<00:28:26.559><c> to</c><00:28:26.779><c> take</c><00:28:27.019><c> back</c><00:28:27.200><c> control.</c>

00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:29.039
We've<00:28:28.279><c> put</c><00:28:28.400><c> out</c><00:28:28.559><c> our</c><00:28:28.759><c> fleece.</c>

00:28:29.140 --> 00:28:29.900
There's<00:28:29.240><c> a</c><00:28:29.339><c> little</c><00:28:29.519><c> dampness.</c>

00:28:29.940 --> 00:28:31.019
Obviously,<00:28:30.200><c> there's</c><00:28:30.440><c> what</c><00:28:30.579><c> God</c><00:28:30.819><c> wants.</c>

00:28:31.019 --> 00:28:32.359
And<00:28:31.180><c> we</c><00:28:31.339><c> jump.</c>

00:28:32.819 --> 00:28:35.519
We<00:28:33.039><c> don't</c><00:28:33.259><c> let</c><00:28:33.460><c> God</c><00:28:33.819><c> develop</c><00:28:34.400><c> to</c><00:28:34.599><c> make</c><00:28:34.779><c> sure</c><00:28:34.940><c> all</c><00:28:35.160><c> the</c><00:28:35.380><c> clues</c>

00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:36.819
are<00:28:35.740><c> in</c><00:28:35.920><c> place.</c>

00:28:37.500 --> 00:28:39.279
Well,<00:28:37.720><c> I</c><00:28:38.019><c> know</c><00:28:38.160><c> you</c><00:28:38.380><c> all</c><00:28:38.500><c> know</c><00:28:38.680><c> the</c><00:28:38.940><c> story.</c>

00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:44.880
So<00:28:39.599><c> we're</c><00:28:39.779><c> going</c><00:28:39.980><c> to</c><00:28:40.119><c> skip</c><00:28:40.359><c> to</c><00:28:40.539><c> the</c><00:28:40.819><c> decision</c><00:28:41.119><c> point</c><00:28:41.779><c> at</c><00:28:43.380><c> verse</c><00:28:43.700><c> 49.</c>

00:28:45.019 --> 00:28:48.259
And<00:28:45.019><c> now,</c><00:28:46.019><c> if</c><00:28:46.039><c> you</c><00:28:46.279><c> deal</c><00:28:46.539><c> kindly</c><00:28:47.000><c> and</c><00:28:47.299><c> truly</c><00:28:47.500><c> with</c><00:28:47.720><c> my</c><00:28:47.960><c> master,</c>

tell<00:28:48.579><c> me.</c>

00:28:48.819 --> 00:28:52.660
And<00:28:48.900><c> if</c><00:28:49.079><c> not,</c><00:28:49.779><c> tell</c><00:28:49.920><c> me</c><00:28:50.119><c> that</c><00:28:50.240><c> I</c><00:28:50.460><c> may</c><00:28:50.599><c> return</c><00:28:51.019><c> to</c><00:28:51.180><c> the</c><00:28:51.339><c> right</c><00:28:51.559><c> hand</c><00:28:51.960><c> or</c>

00:28:53.940 --> 00:28:56.440
Look,<00:28:54.559><c> everything's</c><00:28:55.119><c> going</c><00:28:55.319><c> fine.</c>

00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:59.259
You've<00:28:57.019><c> got</c><00:28:57.160><c> all</c><00:28:57.460><c> the</c><00:28:57.740><c> attributes</c><00:28:58.119><c> we</c><00:28:58.359><c> could</c><00:28:58.579><c> want</c><00:28:58.759><c> and</c><00:28:59.019><c> more.</c>

00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:01.220
You're<00:28:59.640><c> from</c><00:28:59.819><c> the</c><00:29:00.059><c> family</c><00:29:00.339><c> I</c><00:29:00.539><c> have</c><00:29:00.680><c> been</c><00:29:00.980><c> sent.</c>

00:29:01.380 --> 00:29:05.420
And<00:29:01.640><c> you've</c><00:29:01.980><c> shown</c><00:29:02.119><c> utter</c><00:29:02.519><c> kindness</c><00:29:03.039><c> and</c><00:29:03.960><c> worthiness</c><00:29:04.440><c> in</c><00:29:04.619><c> your</c><00:29:04.880><c> service</c><00:29:05.200><c> to</c>

00:29:05.420 --> 00:29:06.759
me<00:29:05.819><c> and</c><00:29:06.019><c> my</c><00:29:06.259><c> master.</c>

00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:10.279
But<00:29:07.559><c> now</c><00:29:07.819><c> the</c><00:29:07.920><c> most</c><00:29:08.240><c> important</c><00:29:08.740><c> question</c><00:29:09.140><c> remains.</c>

00:29:11.059 --> 00:29:13.579
Will<00:29:11.259><c> you</c><00:29:11.700><c> follow</c><00:29:12.240><c> me?</c>

00:29:14.339 --> 00:29:17.099
If<00:29:14.660><c> not,</c><00:29:15.700><c> I've</c><00:29:16.039><c> got</c><00:29:16.059><c> to</c><00:29:16.160><c> go</c><00:29:16.359><c> find</c><00:29:16.559><c> another</c><00:29:16.960><c> one.</c>

00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:19.819
Can<00:29:17.440><c> you</c><00:29:17.619><c> imagine</c><00:29:18.160><c> that</c><00:29:18.539><c> servant's</c><00:29:19.140><c> faith?</c>

00:29:20.380 --> 00:29:22.519
This<00:29:20.619><c> was</c><00:29:21.000><c> everything</c><00:29:21.460><c> you</c><00:29:21.640><c> could</c><00:29:21.799><c> have</c><00:29:21.960><c> asked</c><00:29:22.220><c> for.</c>

00:29:22.819 --> 00:29:24.940
And<00:29:22.839><c> at</c><00:29:23.059><c> this</c><00:29:23.420><c> point,</c><00:29:23.680><c> she</c><00:29:23.839><c> says,</c><00:29:24.119><c> you</c><00:29:24.279><c> know,</c><00:29:24.400><c> I</c><00:29:24.579><c> really</c><00:29:24.839><c> want</c>

00:29:24.940 --> 00:29:26.039
to<00:29:25.140><c> go.</c>

00:29:26.059 --> 00:29:27.839
Where<00:29:26.279><c> has</c><00:29:26.420><c> he</c><00:29:26.559><c> got</c><00:29:26.680><c> to</c><00:29:26.859><c> go?</c>

00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:31.539
Back<00:29:28.660><c> to</c><00:29:28.859><c> the</c><00:29:29.099><c> well</c><00:29:29.259><c> and</c><00:29:29.480><c> see</c><00:29:29.700><c> that</c><00:29:30.059><c> happen</c><00:29:30.299><c> again.</c>

00:29:32.599 --> 00:29:35.359
At<00:29:33.160><c> verse</c><00:29:33.480><c> 50,</c><00:29:34.039><c> Laban</c><00:29:34.180><c> and</c><00:29:34.299><c> Bethuel</c><00:29:34.619><c> answered</c><00:29:35.000><c> and</c><00:29:35.220><c> said,</c>

00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:36.859
The<00:29:35.480><c> thing</c><00:29:35.740><c> proceedeth</c><00:29:36.200><c> from</c><00:29:36.400><c> Yahweh.</c>

00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:39.559
We<00:29:37.019><c> cannot</c><00:29:37.259><c> speak</c><00:29:37.660><c> unto</c><00:29:37.880><c> thee</c><00:29:38.539><c> bad</c><00:29:38.940><c> or</c><00:29:39.359><c> good.</c>

00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:42.319
So<00:29:39.700><c> they</c><00:29:39.880><c> have</c><00:29:40.000><c> at</c><00:29:40.079><c> least</c><00:29:40.400><c> recognized</c><00:29:40.960><c> divine</c><00:29:41.299><c> guidance.</c>

00:29:42.599 --> 00:29:45.859
Why<00:29:42.880><c> is</c><00:29:43.160><c> this</c><00:29:43.640><c> chapter</c><00:29:44.039><c> so</c><00:29:44.440><c> long</c><00:29:44.680><c> and</c><00:29:44.980><c> repetitive?</c>

00:29:47.039 --> 00:29:47.960
This<00:29:47.400><c> is</c><00:29:47.700><c> why.</c>

00:29:48.019 --> 00:29:49.660
What's<00:29:48.240><c> being</c><00:29:48.440><c> described</c><00:29:48.839><c> here</c><00:29:49.000><c> is</c><00:29:49.160><c> two</c><00:29:49.380><c> things.</c>

00:29:49.740 --> 00:29:52.460
Yes,<00:29:50.140><c> selecting</c><00:29:50.440><c> of</c><00:29:50.680><c> a</c><00:29:50.819><c> spouse,</c><00:29:51.079><c> which</c><00:29:51.259><c> is</c><00:29:51.559><c> important.</c>

00:29:52.700 --> 00:29:56.160
But<00:29:52.900><c> equally</c><00:29:53.200><c> important</c><00:29:53.640><c> is</c><00:29:53.859><c> preaching</c><00:29:54.180><c> the</c><00:29:54.420><c> gospel</c><00:29:54.799><c> to</c><00:29:54.980><c> the</c><00:29:55.180><c> household.</c>

00:29:56.460 --> 00:29:59.599
Neither<00:29:56.920><c> process</c><00:29:57.519><c> is</c><00:29:57.920><c> instant</c><00:29:58.380><c> if</c><00:29:58.700><c> it's</c><00:29:58.980><c> done</c><00:29:59.259><c> right.</c>

00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:02.960
It<00:29:59.799><c> takes</c><00:30:00.279><c> time</c><00:30:00.900><c> for</c><00:30:01.220><c> us</c><00:30:01.400><c> to</c><00:30:01.500><c> see</c><00:30:01.720><c> the</c><00:30:01.880><c> development</c><00:30:02.279><c> of</c><00:30:02.519><c> God's</c>

00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:04.019
character<00:30:03.180><c> in</c><00:30:03.400><c> our</c><00:30:03.680><c> lives</c>

00:30:04.019 --> 00:30:07.440
and<00:30:04.460><c> in</c><00:30:04.640><c> the</c><00:30:04.779><c> lives</c><00:30:04.980><c> of</c><00:30:05.180><c> those</c><00:30:05.380><c> around</c><00:30:05.759><c> us.</c>

00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:10.900
So<00:30:08.480><c> the</c><00:30:08.660><c> servant</c><00:30:08.920><c> brought</c><00:30:09.160><c> forth</c><00:30:09.480><c> jewels</c><00:30:09.680><c> of</c><00:30:09.900><c> silver,</c><00:30:10.740><c> jewels</c>

00:30:10.900 --> 00:30:11.500
of<00:30:11.160><c> gold.</c>

00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:14.440
Raymond<00:30:11.900><c> gave</c><00:30:12.140><c> them</c><00:30:12.279><c> to</c><00:30:12.440><c> Rebecca</c><00:30:12.799><c> and</c><00:30:13.180><c> gave</c><00:30:13.380><c> also</c><00:30:13.720><c> to</c><00:30:13.900><c> her</c><00:30:14.079><c> brother</c><00:30:14.279><c> and</c>

00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:16.279
her<00:30:14.579><c> mother</c><00:30:14.779><c> precious</c><00:30:15.160><c> things.</c>

00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:19.039
So<00:30:17.079><c> here</c><00:30:17.240><c> we</c><00:30:17.400><c> go</c><00:30:17.579><c> again</c><00:30:17.799><c> with</c><00:30:18.039><c> silver</c><00:30:18.380><c> and</c><00:30:18.619><c> gold.</c>

00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:21.000
First<00:30:19.500><c> Corinthians</c><00:30:19.900><c> 6</c><00:30:20.259><c> and</c><00:30:20.460><c> 20.</c>

00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:22.339
For<00:30:21.220><c> you</c><00:30:21.400><c> are</c><00:30:21.500><c> bought</c><00:30:21.720><c> with</c><00:30:21.940><c> a</c><00:30:22.119><c> price.</c>

00:30:22.660 --> 00:30:27.779
Therefore,<00:30:23.700><c> glorify</c><00:30:24.339><c> God</c><00:30:24.759><c> in</c><00:30:25.039><c> your</c><00:30:25.359><c> body</c><00:30:25.839><c> and</c><00:30:26.299><c> in</c><00:30:26.500><c> your</c><00:30:26.759><c> spirit,</c><00:30:27.660><c> which</c>

00:30:27.779 --> 00:30:28.920
are<00:30:28.000><c> God's.</c>

00:30:28.920 --> 00:30:32.259
The<00:30:29.180><c> medals</c><00:30:29.559><c> of</c><00:30:29.859><c> tried</c><00:30:30.099><c> faith</c><00:30:30.480><c> and</c><00:30:30.660><c> redemption</c><00:30:31.119><c> completed</c><00:30:31.920><c> by</c>

00:30:32.259 --> 00:30:35.420
the<00:30:32.559><c> blood</c><00:30:32.900><c> of</c><00:30:33.660><c> our</c><00:30:33.859><c> Lord</c><00:30:34.099><c> and</c><00:30:34.319><c> master.</c>

00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:38.480
So<00:30:37.259><c> they</c><00:30:37.420><c> did</c><00:30:37.579><c> eat</c><00:30:37.859><c> and</c><00:30:38.099><c> drink.</c>

00:30:38.660 --> 00:30:40.920
He<00:30:38.880><c> and</c><00:30:39.000><c> the</c><00:30:39.180><c> men</c><00:30:39.319><c> that</c><00:30:39.440><c> were</c><00:30:39.579><c> with</c><00:30:39.740><c> him</c><00:30:39.940><c> and</c><00:30:40.180><c> tarried</c><00:30:40.380><c> all</c><00:30:40.619><c> night.</c>

00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:44.799
And<00:30:41.339><c> they</c><00:30:41.480><c> rose</c><00:30:41.660><c> up</c><00:30:41.819><c> in</c><00:30:41.940><c> the</c><00:30:42.079><c> morning</c><00:30:42.299><c> and</c><00:30:42.519><c> said,</c><00:30:42.799><c> Send</c><00:30:42.960><c> me</c><00:30:43.220><c> away</c><00:30:43.420><c> unto</c><00:30:43.599><c> my</c><00:30:43.839><c> master.</c>

00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:47.480
And<00:30:45.000><c> her</c><00:30:45.180><c> brother</c><00:30:45.359><c> and</c><00:30:45.500><c> her</c><00:30:45.599><c> mother</c><00:30:45.779><c> said,</c><00:30:46.119><c> Let</c><00:30:46.359><c> the</c><00:30:46.559><c> damsel</c><00:30:46.839><c> abide</c><00:30:47.099><c> with</c><00:30:47.259><c> us</c><00:30:47.400><c> a</c>

00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:47.920
few<00:30:47.640><c> days.</c>

00:30:47.940 --> 00:30:49.259
At<00:30:48.039><c> least</c><00:30:48.279><c> ten.</c>

00:30:49.500 --> 00:30:51.359
After<00:30:49.819><c> that</c><00:30:50.039><c> she</c><00:30:50.180><c> may</c><00:30:50.420><c> go.</c>

00:30:51.900 --> 00:30:56.319
So<00:30:52.299><c> he,</c><00:30:52.960><c> like</c><00:30:53.180><c> his</c><00:30:53.380><c> master,</c><00:30:53.920><c> gets</c><00:30:54.079><c> up</c><00:30:54.240><c> in</c><00:30:54.380><c> the</c><00:30:54.500><c> morning</c><00:30:54.660><c> and</c><00:30:54.720><c> says,</c><00:30:55.000><c> Okay,</c><00:30:55.400><c> God's</c><00:30:55.700><c> deliverance</c><00:30:56.039><c> is</c><00:30:56.200><c> here.</c>

00:30:56.339 --> 00:30:57.559
Let's<00:30:56.680><c> go.</c>

00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:01.099
But<00:30:58.680><c> the</c><00:30:59.000><c> natural</c><00:30:59.339><c> response</c><00:30:59.819><c> is</c><00:31:00.039><c> to</c><00:31:00.240><c> delay.</c>

00:31:01.819 --> 00:31:05.660
In<00:31:01.900><c> contrast</c><00:31:02.420><c> to</c><00:31:02.599><c> the</c><00:31:02.839><c> separation</c><00:31:03.240><c> and</c><00:31:03.480><c> demanded</c><00:31:03.839><c> by</c><00:31:04.140><c> the</c><00:31:04.359><c> truth,</c><00:31:05.319><c> no</c>

00:31:05.660 --> 00:31:08.460
possible<00:31:06.240><c> good</c><00:31:06.539><c> could</c><00:31:06.799><c> come</c><00:31:07.059><c> from</c><00:31:07.319><c> this</c><00:31:07.599><c> delay.</c>

00:31:08.539 --> 00:31:11.000
Delay<00:31:08.980><c> only</c><00:31:09.440><c> becomes</c><00:31:09.839><c> danger.</c>

00:31:11.059 --> 00:31:13.680
And<00:31:11.180><c> the</c><00:31:11.400><c> same</c><00:31:11.619><c> thing</c><00:31:11.819><c> can</c><00:31:12.079><c> happen</c><00:31:12.359><c> in</c><00:31:12.579><c> our</c><00:31:12.759><c> lives.</c>

00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:17.200
That's<00:31:14.180><c> why</c><00:31:14.440><c> he</c><00:31:14.640><c> rose</c><00:31:14.819><c> up</c><00:31:15.259><c> early</c><00:31:15.619><c> to</c><00:31:15.819><c> do</c><00:31:16.000><c> these</c><00:31:16.319><c> things.</c>

00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:21.619
So<00:31:18.579><c> at</c><00:31:18.759><c> first</c><00:31:19.000><c> 58,</c><00:31:19.480><c> they</c><00:31:19.660><c> called</c><00:31:19.819><c> Rebecca</c><00:31:20.200><c> and</c><00:31:20.420><c> said</c><00:31:20.619><c> unto</c><00:31:20.759><c> her,</c><00:31:21.059><c> Wilt</c><00:31:21.240><c> thou</c><00:31:21.440><c> go</c>

00:31:21.619 --> 00:31:22.160
with<00:31:21.799><c> this</c><00:31:22.000><c> man?</c>

00:31:22.160 --> 00:31:24.579
And<00:31:22.279><c> she</c><00:31:22.460><c> said,</c><00:31:23.299><c> I</c><00:31:23.519><c> will</c><00:31:23.720><c> go.</c>

00:31:24.819 --> 00:31:28.059
She<00:31:25.299><c> had</c><00:31:25.779><c> to</c><00:31:26.180><c> make</c><00:31:26.400><c> her</c><00:31:26.660><c> own</c><00:31:26.880><c> choice.</c>

00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:32.180
Just<00:31:29.319><c> like</c><00:31:29.619><c> Adam</c><00:31:30.099><c> had</c><00:31:30.359><c> to</c><00:31:30.559><c> make</c><00:31:30.700><c> his</c><00:31:31.019><c> own</c><00:31:31.299><c> choice.</c>

00:31:32.339 --> 00:31:35.220
Just<00:31:32.539><c> like</c><00:31:32.720><c> you</c><00:31:32.960><c> and</c><00:31:33.119><c> I</c><00:31:33.299><c> have</c><00:31:33.440><c> to</c><00:31:33.599><c> make</c><00:31:33.759><c> our</c><00:31:34.059><c> own</c><00:31:34.279><c> choice.</c>

00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:38.339
There's<00:31:35.660><c> no</c><00:31:35.859><c> gun</c><00:31:36.119><c> to</c><00:31:36.359><c> our</c><00:31:36.619><c> head</c><00:31:36.779><c> that</c><00:31:36.940><c> you</c><00:31:37.099><c> must</c><00:31:37.359><c> be</c><00:31:37.700><c> baptized</c>

00:31:38.339 --> 00:31:40.500
and<00:31:38.960><c> follow</c><00:31:39.279><c> the</c><00:31:39.460><c> things</c><00:31:39.579><c> of</c><00:31:39.740><c> God</c><00:31:39.980><c> now.</c>

00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:43.299
Because<00:31:41.119><c> if</c><00:31:41.319><c> you</c><00:31:41.500><c> did</c><00:31:41.619><c> it</c><00:31:41.700><c> under</c><00:31:41.880><c> those</c><00:31:42.180><c> circumstances,</c><00:31:42.900><c> there's</c><00:31:43.079><c> no</c>

00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:48.640
But<00:31:45.599><c> if</c><00:31:45.740><c> we</c><00:31:46.000><c> have</c><00:31:46.180><c> the</c><00:31:46.420><c> choice</c><00:31:46.700><c> between</c><00:31:47.079><c> the</c><00:31:47.299><c> house</c><00:31:47.500><c> of</c><00:31:47.740><c> God</c><00:31:48.059><c> and</c><00:31:48.460><c> a</c>

00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:49.440
heap<00:31:48.779><c> of</c><00:31:49.099><c> ruin,</c>

00:31:49.700 --> 00:31:52.519
and<00:31:50.180><c> we</c><00:31:50.480><c> actually</c><00:31:51.000><c> choose</c><00:31:51.480><c> the</c><00:31:51.640><c> house</c><00:31:51.880><c> of</c><00:31:52.140><c> God,</c>

00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:56.599
there<00:31:53.359><c> is</c><00:31:53.740><c> joy</c><00:31:54.039><c> to</c><00:31:54.259><c> our</c><00:31:54.380><c> Heavenly</c><00:31:54.720><c> Father</c><00:31:55.160><c> in</c><00:31:55.380><c> that</c><00:31:55.619><c> choice.</c>

00:31:56.980 --> 00:32:00.640
But<00:31:57.240><c> it</c><00:31:57.500><c> must</c><00:31:57.900><c> be</c><00:31:58.279><c> up</c><00:31:58.440><c> to</c><00:31:58.599><c> us</c><00:31:58.900><c> individually</c><00:31:59.519><c> to</c><00:31:59.799><c> make</c><00:31:59.960><c> that</c><00:32:00.240><c> decision.</c>

00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:04.660
Once<00:32:01.380><c> we</c><00:32:01.599><c> make</c><00:32:01.900><c> that</c><00:32:02.539><c> decision,</c><00:32:03.400><c> we</c><00:32:03.680><c> have</c><00:32:03.980><c> to</c><00:32:04.119><c> move</c><00:32:04.339><c> forward</c>

00:32:04.660 --> 00:32:06.319
and<00:32:04.839><c> not</c><00:32:05.000><c> look</c><00:32:05.220><c> back.</c>

00:32:07.019 --> 00:32:10.779
She<00:32:07.319><c> could</c><00:32:07.619><c> see</c><00:32:07.839><c> an</c><00:32:08.099><c> example</c><00:32:08.480><c> of</c><00:32:08.700><c> what</c><00:32:08.960><c> Abraham</c><00:32:09.400><c> and</c><00:32:09.640><c> Isaac</c><00:32:09.980><c> were</c><00:32:10.220><c> like</c><00:32:10.500><c> by</c>

the<00:32:11.059><c> servant's</c><00:32:11.579><c> example,</c>

00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:15.859
which<00:32:12.799><c> we</c><00:32:13.019><c> can</c><00:32:13.200><c> nicely</c><00:32:13.599><c> compare</c><00:32:13.960><c> to</c><00:32:14.259><c> be</c><00:32:14.480><c> followers</c><00:32:14.980><c> of</c><00:32:15.279><c> me,</c><00:32:15.519><c> even</c><00:32:15.660><c> as</c>

00:32:15.859 --> 00:32:17.240
I<00:32:16.059><c> also</c><00:32:16.380><c> am</c><00:32:16.539><c> of</c><00:32:16.720><c> Christ.</c>

00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:21.640
As<00:32:18.000><c> we</c><00:32:18.180><c> preach</c><00:32:18.519><c> to</c><00:32:18.740><c> a</c><00:32:18.859><c> world</c><00:32:19.039><c> of</c><00:32:19.259><c> darkness,</c><00:32:20.619><c> what</c><00:32:20.720><c> Christ</c><00:32:21.240><c> is</c>

to<00:32:21.799><c> them,</c><00:32:22.819><c> they</c><00:32:23.059><c> should</c><00:32:23.380><c> see</c><00:32:23.819><c> in</c><00:32:24.099><c> us.</c>

00:32:25.539 --> 00:32:29.579
Not<00:32:25.700><c> perfection,</c><00:32:27.039><c> but</c><00:32:27.140><c> that</c><00:32:27.299><c> we</c><00:32:27.519><c> are</c><00:32:27.859><c> separate</c><00:32:28.200><c> and</c><00:32:28.500><c> holy</c><00:32:28.740><c> unto</c><00:32:29.000><c> our</c><00:32:29.259><c> God.</c>

And<00:32:30.160><c> her</c><00:32:30.279><c> answer?</c>

00:32:32.519 --> 00:32:34.680
I<00:32:33.000><c> will</c><00:32:33.480><c> go.</c>

00:32:36.259 --> 00:32:38.619
Our<00:32:36.460><c> Lord</c><00:32:36.700><c> says,</c><00:32:37.160><c> he</c><00:32:37.160><c> that</c><00:32:37.339><c> cannot</c><00:32:37.619><c> leave</c><00:32:37.880><c> father</c><00:32:38.220><c> or</c><00:32:38.440><c> mother,</c>

00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:02.559
the<00:35:01.579><c> camel.</c>

00:35:02.739 --> 00:35:06.159
Perhaps<00:35:03.179><c> out</c><00:35:03.380><c> of</c><00:35:03.539><c> respect,</c><00:35:04.320><c> perhaps</c><00:35:04.659><c> in</c><00:35:04.880><c> humility,</c><00:35:05.400><c> perhaps</c><00:35:05.760><c> both.</c>

00:35:06.500 --> 00:35:08.840
But<00:35:06.679><c> I</c><00:35:06.860><c> think</c><00:35:07.039><c> there's</c><00:35:07.340><c> more</c><00:35:07.619><c> to</c><00:35:07.900><c> this.</c>

00:35:09.440 --> 00:35:11.900
She<00:35:09.679><c> said</c><00:35:09.920><c> to</c><00:35:10.079><c> the</c><00:35:10.260><c> servant,</c><00:35:10.699><c> what</c><00:35:10.820><c> man</c><00:35:11.099><c> is</c><00:35:11.260><c> it</c><00:35:11.400><c> that</c><00:35:11.659><c> walketh</c>

00:35:11.900 --> 00:35:12.860
in<00:35:12.059><c> the</c><00:35:12.199><c> field</c><00:35:12.360><c> to</c><00:35:12.559><c> meet</c><00:35:12.659><c> us?</c>

00:35:12.900 --> 00:35:14.840
And<00:35:13.000><c> the</c><00:35:13.179><c> servant</c><00:35:13.340><c> said,</c><00:35:14.119><c> it</c><00:35:14.179><c> is</c><00:35:14.360><c> my</c><00:35:14.500><c> master.</c>

00:35:14.940 --> 00:35:17.420
Therefore<00:35:15.280><c> she</c><00:35:15.519><c> took</c><00:35:15.739><c> a</c><00:35:15.880><c> veil</c><00:35:16.019><c> and</c><00:35:16.219><c> covered</c><00:35:16.420><c> herself.</c>

00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:21.460
And<00:35:17.960><c> the</c><00:35:18.139><c> servant</c><00:35:18.320><c> told</c><00:35:18.579><c> Isaac</c><00:35:18.880><c> all</c><00:35:19.119><c> the</c><00:35:19.280><c> things</c><00:35:19.880><c> that</c><00:35:20.300><c> he</c><00:35:20.460><c> had</c><00:35:20.659><c> done.</c>

00:35:22.840 --> 00:35:29.480
Once<00:35:23.460><c> she</c><00:35:23.719><c> knew</c><00:35:24.059><c> it</c><00:35:24.280><c> was</c><00:35:24.519><c> Isaac,</c><00:35:27.179><c> she</c><00:35:27.360><c> had</c><00:35:27.699><c> to</c><00:35:27.820><c> do</c><00:35:27.960><c> something</c><00:35:28.380><c> wonderful.</c>

00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:34.519
Remember,<00:35:30.239><c> she</c><00:35:30.539><c> had</c><00:35:30.860><c> physical</c><00:35:31.420><c> beauty</c><00:35:31.860><c> to</c><00:35:32.239><c> show</c><00:35:32.579><c> from</c><00:35:33.000><c> verse</c><00:35:33.260><c> 16.</c>

00:35:34.980 --> 00:35:37.460
But<00:35:35.199><c> she</c><00:35:35.519><c> chose</c><00:35:35.940><c> to</c><00:35:36.280><c> cover</c><00:35:36.500><c> it.</c>

00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:41.039
Because<00:35:38.219><c> she</c><00:35:38.460><c> did</c><00:35:38.760><c> not</c><00:35:39.000><c> want</c><00:35:39.300><c> that</c><00:35:39.739><c> to</c><00:35:40.000><c> be</c><00:35:40.280><c> what</c><00:35:40.500><c> he</c><00:35:40.780><c> was</c>

00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:41.880
excited<00:35:41.420><c> about.</c>

00:35:42.199 --> 00:35:45.420
And<00:35:42.380><c> as</c><00:35:42.500><c> we</c><00:35:42.659><c> go</c><00:35:42.860><c> just</c><00:35:43.099><c> one</c><00:35:43.360><c> generation</c><00:35:43.860><c> later,</c><00:35:44.320><c> we</c><00:35:44.440><c> see</c><00:35:44.619><c> the</c><00:35:44.760><c> example</c><00:35:45.139><c> of</c>

00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:50.400
And<00:35:47.719><c> he</c><00:35:47.920><c> falls</c><00:35:48.239><c> in</c><00:35:48.519><c> love</c><00:35:48.679><c> with</c><00:35:48.980><c> the</c><00:35:49.320><c> beauty</c><00:35:49.579><c> on</c><00:35:49.820><c> the</c><00:35:49.980><c> outside</c>

00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:51.840
of<00:35:50.639><c> Rachel.</c>

00:35:51.940 --> 00:35:55.400
Where<00:35:52.079><c> God</c><00:35:52.300><c> has</c><00:35:52.579><c> handpicked</c><00:35:53.019><c> for</c><00:35:53.199><c> him</c><00:35:53.340><c> the</c><00:35:53.579><c> beauty</c><00:35:53.780><c> on</c><00:35:54.019><c> the</c><00:35:54.099><c> inside</c><00:35:54.440><c> of</c><00:35:54.699><c> Leah.</c>

00:35:55.980 --> 00:35:57.679
That<00:35:56.179><c> mistake</c><00:35:56.599><c> will</c><00:35:56.880><c> not</c><00:35:57.059><c> be</c><00:35:57.260><c> made</c><00:35:57.460><c> here.</c>

00:35:57.739 --> 00:36:01.300
Though<00:35:57.940><c> she's</c><00:35:58.199><c> beautiful,</c><00:35:58.960><c> that</c><00:35:59.340><c> is</c><00:35:59.579><c> the</c><00:35:59.739><c> gift</c><00:36:00.000><c> with</c><00:36:00.300><c> purchase.</c>

00:36:01.380 --> 00:36:04.840
That<00:36:01.639><c> is</c><00:36:02.079><c> not</c><00:36:02.400><c> the</c><00:36:02.780><c> prime</c><00:36:03.019><c> reason</c><00:36:03.440><c> for</c><00:36:03.699><c> this</c><00:36:03.980><c> union.</c>

00:36:05.800 --> 00:36:08.860
And<00:36:05.980><c> of</c><00:36:06.139><c> course</c><00:36:06.320><c> the</c><00:36:06.500><c> servant</c><00:36:06.800><c> tells</c><00:36:07.159><c> Isaac</c><00:36:07.880><c> all</c><00:36:08.320><c> the</c><00:36:08.539><c> things</c>

00:36:08.860 --> 00:36:10.300
that<00:36:09.139><c> he</c><00:36:09.300><c> had</c><00:36:09.500><c> done.</c>

00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:14.559
A<00:36:11.320><c> nice</c><00:36:11.579><c> reference</c><00:36:12.000><c> to</c><00:36:12.300><c> Matthew</c><00:36:12.760><c> chapter</c><00:36:13.139><c> 25.</c>

00:36:16.579 --> 00:36:19.840
So<00:36:16.840><c> Isaac</c><00:36:17.079><c> brought</c><00:36:17.440><c> her</c><00:36:17.639><c> into</c><00:36:17.860><c> his</c><00:36:18.059><c> mother</c><00:36:18.320><c> Sarah's</c><00:36:18.860><c> tent</c><00:36:19.179><c> and</c>

00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:20.420
took<00:36:20.019><c> Rebecca.</c>

00:36:20.559 --> 00:36:22.780
And<00:36:20.679><c> she</c><00:36:20.800><c> became</c><00:36:21.099><c> his</c><00:36:21.380><c> wife</c><00:36:21.579><c> and</c><00:36:21.699><c> he</c><00:36:21.960><c> loved</c><00:36:22.139><c> her.</c>

00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:26.000
And<00:36:23.219><c> Isaac</c><00:36:23.420><c> was</c><00:36:23.739><c> comforted</c><00:36:24.139><c> after</c><00:36:24.440><c> his</c><00:36:24.679><c> mother's</c><00:36:25.119><c> death.</c>

00:36:26.480 --> 00:36:29.000
We<00:36:26.679><c> mentioned</c><00:36:26.900><c> earlier</c><00:36:27.239><c> this</c><00:36:27.460><c> is</c><00:36:27.699><c> three</c><00:36:27.880><c> years</c><00:36:28.119><c> after</c><00:36:28.480><c> the</c><00:36:28.679><c> death</c><00:36:28.860><c> of</c>

his<00:36:29.179><c> mother.</c>

00:36:30.579 --> 00:36:33.380
And<00:36:30.800><c> so</c><00:36:30.920><c> we'll</c><00:36:31.199><c> close</c><00:36:31.480><c> this</c><00:36:31.860><c> thought</c><00:36:32.139><c> with</c><00:36:32.579><c> husbands</c><00:36:33.039><c> love</c>

Even<00:36:35.159><c> as</c><00:36:35.440><c> Christ</c><00:36:35.679><c> also</c><00:36:36.179><c> loved</c><00:36:36.380><c> the</c><00:36:36.619><c> Ecclesia</c><00:36:37.039><c> and</c><00:36:37.760><c> gave</c><00:36:38.019><c> himself</c><00:36:38.420><c> for</c><00:36:38.739><c> it.</c>

00:36:39.719 --> 00:36:44.619

I'm<00:37:33.039><c> just</c><00:37:33.239><c> kidding.</c>

00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:35.099
Spelling<00:37:34.139><c> counts.</c>

00:37:36.320 --> 00:37:38.059
You<00:37:36.500><c> know</c><00:37:36.559><c> what's</c><00:37:36.960><c> interesting</c><00:37:37.280><c> as</c><00:37:37.460><c> we</c><00:37:37.659><c> look</c><00:37:37.800><c> at</c><00:37:37.940><c> this.</c>

00:37:38.119 --> 00:37:40.780
I<00:37:38.199><c> just</c><00:37:38.420><c> want</c><00:37:38.539><c> to</c><00:37:38.699><c> take</c><00:37:38.840><c> a</c><00:37:39.039><c> minute</c><00:37:39.380><c> and</c><00:37:39.980><c> look</c><00:37:40.159><c> at</c><00:37:40.340><c> the</c><00:37:40.519><c> names.</c>

00:37:40.780 --> 00:37:43.239

00:37:43.239 --> 00:37:43.760
Abram's<00:37:43.599><c> life.</c>

00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:46.139
And<00:37:43.940><c> let's</c><00:37:44.159><c> see</c><00:37:44.460><c> what</c><00:37:44.659><c> he's</c><00:37:45.199><c> named</c><00:37:45.460><c> these</c><00:37:45.800><c> children.</c>

We<00:37:46.340><c> start</c><00:37:46.699><c> with</c><00:37:46.940><c> Keturah.</c>

00:37:47.739 --> 00:37:49.639
So<00:37:47.860><c> this</c><00:37:48.039><c> one</c><00:37:48.199><c> doesn't</c><00:37:48.500><c> count</c><00:37:48.760><c> but</c><00:37:48.920><c> it</c><00:37:49.079><c> is</c><00:37:49.280><c> interesting.</c>

00:37:49.780 --> 00:37:52.860
It<00:37:49.820><c> means</c><00:37:50.119><c> incense</c><00:37:50.739><c> or</c><00:37:51.800><c> perfume.</c>

00:37:52.900 --> 00:37:55.880
And<00:37:53.039><c> it</c><00:37:53.239><c> appears</c><00:37:53.440><c> that</c><00:37:53.639><c> she's</c><00:37:53.840><c> been</c><00:37:54.159><c> promoted</c><00:37:54.519><c> from</c><00:37:54.880><c> concubine</c><00:37:55.400><c> to</c><00:37:55.699><c> wife</c>

after<00:37:56.239><c> Sarah's</c><00:37:56.739><c> death.</c>

00:37:58.199 --> 00:37:59.820
So<00:37:58.400><c> let's</c><00:37:58.639><c> go</c><00:37:58.900><c> through</c><00:37:59.079><c> the</c><00:37:59.219><c> rest</c><00:37:59.460><c> of</c><00:37:59.619><c> these.</c>

00:37:59.940 --> 00:38:02.380

00:38:04.139 --> 00:38:06.980
I'll<00:38:04.340><c> just</c><00:38:04.539><c> tell</c><00:38:04.699><c> you</c><00:38:04.820><c> what</c><00:38:05.000><c> they</c><00:38:05.460><c> mean</c><00:38:05.940><c> in</c><00:38:06.340><c> order</c><00:38:06.659><c> starting</c>
