have<00:01:03.560><c> said,</c>

00:01:05.340 --> 00:01:08.659

00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:16.859
Unfortunately,<00:01:12.000><c> resisting</c><00:01:12.579><c> temptation</c><00:01:13.299><c> is</c><00:01:14.239><c> not</c><00:01:14.700><c> in</c><00:01:15.040><c> style</c><00:01:15.640><c> anymore.</c>

00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:22.700
Doing<00:01:17.959><c> what</c><00:01:18.239><c> comes</c><00:01:18.640><c> naturally</c><00:01:19.560><c> has</c><00:01:20.299><c> become</c><00:01:20.739><c> the</c><00:01:21.159><c> end</c><00:01:21.519><c> thing.</c>

00:01:24.700 --> 00:01:31.560
Jesus<00:01:25.120><c> told</c><00:01:25.439><c> us</c><00:01:25.719><c> to</c><00:01:25.959><c> watch</c><00:01:26.719><c> and</c><00:01:28.040><c> pray</c><00:01:28.879><c> lest</c><00:01:29.700><c> you</c><00:01:29.900><c> enter</c><00:01:30.060><c> into</c><00:01:30.280><c> temptation.</c>

00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:35.760
The<00:01:32.719><c> spirit</c><00:01:33.099><c> indeed</c><00:01:33.439><c> is</c><00:01:33.659><c> willing</c><00:01:33.840><c> but</c><00:01:34.060><c> the</c><00:01:34.260><c> flesh</c><00:01:34.500><c> is</c><00:01:34.840><c> weak.</c>

00:01:40.099 --> 00:01:41.280

young<00:05:57.019><c> teenager.</c>

00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:02.139
And<00:05:58.800><c> he</c><00:05:58.920><c> came</c><00:05:59.079><c> out</c><00:05:59.319><c> to</c><00:05:59.519><c> visit</c><00:05:59.860><c> his</c><00:06:00.240><c> grandfather</c><00:06:00.800><c> and</c><00:06:01.540><c> he</c><00:06:01.759><c> wanted</c><00:06:01.899><c> to</c>

00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:04.319

00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:07.759
because<00:06:05.959><c> it</c><00:06:06.139><c> would</c><00:06:06.319><c> weaken</c><00:06:06.540><c> his</c><00:06:06.879><c> game.</c>

00:06:07.779 --> 00:06:10.839
He<00:06:07.839><c> wanted</c><00:06:08.120><c> someone</c><00:06:08.759><c> who</c><00:06:09.240><c> could</c><00:06:09.839><c> nearly</c><00:06:10.220><c> beat</c><00:06:10.500><c> him.</c>

00:06:10.860 --> 00:06:15.199
He<00:06:11.139><c> wants</c><00:06:11.439><c> to</c><00:06:11.740><c> win.</c><00:06:12.439><c> But</c><00:06:12.579><c> you</c><00:06:12.720><c> see,</c><00:06:13.060><c> you</c><00:06:13.220><c> want</c><00:06:13.420><c> opposition</c><00:06:14.040><c> in</c><00:06:14.360><c> tennis.</c>

00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:17.540
It's<00:06:15.540><c> no</c><00:06:15.759><c> fun</c><00:06:15.939><c> if</c><00:06:16.079><c> you</c><00:06:16.160><c> just</c><00:06:16.339><c> hit</c><00:06:16.459><c> the</c><00:06:16.620><c> ball</c><00:06:16.759><c> over</c><00:06:16.920><c> and</c><00:06:17.040><c> it</c>

00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:22.819

00:06:24.379 --> 00:06:26.540
And<00:06:24.519><c> all</c><00:06:24.639><c> they</c><00:06:24.819><c> vie</c><00:06:25.040><c> back</c><00:06:25.360><c> and</c><00:06:25.519><c> forth</c><00:06:25.639><c> and</c><00:06:25.800><c> finally</c><00:06:26.220><c> in</c><00:06:26.399><c> the</c>

00:06:26.540 --> 00:06:29.579

00:06:29.579 --> 00:06:34.959

00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:36.740
require<00:06:35.519><c> opposition.</c>

00:06:37.259 --> 00:06:39.379
Well,<00:06:37.500><c> life</c><00:06:37.720><c> requires</c><00:06:38.240><c> opposition.</c>

00:06:39.899 --> 00:06:44.759
If<00:06:40.319><c> you</c><00:06:40.519><c> didn't</c><00:06:40.800><c> have</c><00:06:41.000><c> any</c><00:06:41.579><c> challenges,</c><00:06:42.839><c> life</c><00:06:42.959><c> would</c><00:06:43.199><c> be</c><00:06:43.600><c> boring.</c>

00:06:46.379 --> 00:06:49.339
Sometimes<00:06:46.980><c> life</c><00:06:47.579><c> can</c><00:06:47.839><c> be</c><00:06:48.060><c> a</c><00:06:48.160><c> little</c><00:06:48.319><c> bit</c><00:06:48.500><c> more</c><00:06:48.860><c> boring</c><00:06:49.139><c> than</c>

00:06:49.339 --> 00:06:49.680
it<00:06:49.540><c> is</c>

00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:53.800
when<00:06:49.839><c> we</c><00:06:50.040><c> think</c><00:06:50.180><c> of</c><00:06:50.279><c> some</c><00:06:50.459><c> of</c><00:06:50.579><c> the</c><00:06:51.279><c> oppositions</c><00:06:51.879><c> we</c><00:06:52.399><c> have</c><00:06:52.639><c> to</c><00:06:52.899><c> face.</c>

00:06:55.660 --> 00:06:59.199
But<00:06:56.220><c> let's</c><00:06:56.779><c> try</c><00:06:57.019><c> to</c><00:06:57.120><c> look</c><00:06:57.300><c> at</c><00:06:57.500><c> our</c><00:06:57.779><c> problems</c><00:06:58.240><c> and</c><00:06:58.439><c> our</c><00:06:58.759><c> trials</c>

00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:03.120
as<00:06:59.519><c> something</c><00:06:59.879><c> that</c><00:07:00.160><c> God</c><00:07:00.439><c> is</c><00:07:00.759><c> allowing</c><00:07:00.959><c> us</c><00:07:01.199><c> to</c><00:07:01.399><c> have</c><00:07:01.839><c> to</c><00:07:02.519><c> overcome</c>

00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:07.220
so<00:07:04.120><c> that</c><00:07:04.220><c> we</c><00:07:04.300><c> can</c><00:07:04.480><c> be</c><00:07:04.720><c> victorious</c><00:07:05.439><c> for</c><00:07:06.040><c> the</c><00:07:06.259><c> Lord.</c>

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.139
Now<00:07:08.819><c> we</c><00:07:08.920><c> need</c><00:07:09.100><c> to</c><00:07:09.259><c> take</c><00:07:09.500><c> responsibility</c><00:07:10.199><c> for</c><00:07:10.540><c> our</c><00:07:10.779><c> lives.</c>

00:07:11.500 --> 00:07:14.339
And<00:07:11.620><c> that's</c><00:07:11.800><c> another</c><00:07:12.019><c> problem</c><00:07:12.360><c> in</c><00:07:13.060><c> the</c><00:07:13.339><c> world</c><00:07:13.500><c> today.</c>

00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:16.980
Everyone<00:07:15.120><c> blames</c><00:07:15.560><c> someone</c><00:07:15.939><c> else.</c>

00:07:17.339 --> 00:07:19.800
Adam<00:07:17.579><c> blamed</c><00:07:17.980><c> Eve</c><00:07:18.160><c> and</c><00:07:18.300><c> Eve</c><00:07:18.560><c> blamed</c><00:07:18.779><c> the</c><00:07:19.019><c> serpent</c><00:07:19.399><c> and</c><00:07:19.660><c> it's</c>

00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:21.519
called<00:07:20.019><c> passing</c><00:07:20.399><c> the</c><00:07:20.680><c> buck.</c>

00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:25.839
And<00:07:22.959><c> I'll</c><00:07:23.360><c> tell</c><00:07:23.560><c> you</c><00:07:23.680><c> a</c><00:07:23.740><c> little</c><00:07:23.939><c> story</c><00:07:24.160><c> about</c><00:07:24.459><c> a</c><00:07:24.939><c> governor</c>

00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:28.939
down<00:07:26.439><c> in</c><00:07:26.579><c> one</c><00:07:26.740><c> of</c><00:07:26.839><c> the</c><00:07:27.019><c> southern</c><00:07:27.259><c> states</c><00:07:27.639><c> of</c><00:07:27.759><c> the</c><00:07:27.879><c> United</c><00:07:28.199><c> States.</c>

00:07:29.220 --> 00:07:30.740
I<00:07:29.220><c> think</c><00:07:29.379><c> it</c><00:07:29.459><c> was</c><00:07:29.720><c> Georgia.</c>

00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:36.120
He<00:07:31.459><c> went</c><00:07:31.660><c> to</c><00:07:32.100><c> the</c><00:07:32.699><c> state</c><00:07:33.160><c> penitentiary</c><00:07:34.560><c> to</c><00:07:35.379><c> visit</c><00:07:35.740><c> some</c><00:07:36.000><c> of</c>

00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:39.199

00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.920
Anyway,<00:07:41.139><c> he</c><00:07:41.519><c> talked</c><00:07:41.800><c> to</c><00:07:41.959><c> a</c><00:07:42.160><c> prisoner</c><00:07:42.459><c> and</c><00:07:42.639><c> he</c><00:07:42.740><c> said,</c>

00:07:43.220 --> 00:07:46.220

00:07:46.500 --> 00:07:48.560
He<00:07:46.720><c> says</c><00:07:46.860><c> the</c><00:07:47.060><c> judge</c><00:07:47.319><c> was</c><00:07:47.639><c> against</c><00:07:47.879><c> me.</c><00:07:48.079><c> He</c><00:07:48.139><c> said,</c><00:07:48.199><c> I</c><00:07:48.339><c> couldn't</c>

00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:52.199
Talked<00:07:50.779><c> to</c><00:07:50.860><c> another</c><00:07:51.000><c> prisoner,</c><00:07:51.199><c> why</c><00:07:51.620><c> are</c><00:07:51.839><c> you</c><00:07:52.019><c> in</c><00:07:52.120><c> here?</c>

00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:57.240
He<00:07:52.259><c> said,</c><00:07:53.300><c> oh,</c><00:07:53.360><c> if</c><00:07:53.500><c> you</c><00:07:53.620><c> had</c><00:07:53.779><c> my</c><00:07:54.079><c> family,</c><00:07:54.639><c> my</c><00:07:54.899><c> mother</c><00:07:55.139><c> was</c><00:07:55.379><c> no</c><00:07:55.639><c> good,</c><00:07:55.720><c> my</c><00:07:55.959><c> father</c><00:07:56.199><c> was</c><00:07:56.459><c> a</c><00:07:56.600><c> drunk.</c>

00:07:57.620 --> 00:08:00.420
It<00:07:57.800><c> wasn't</c><00:07:58.040><c> my</c><00:07:58.420><c> fault,</c><00:07:58.680><c> it</c><00:07:58.819><c> was</c><00:07:58.839><c> my</c><00:07:59.160><c> parents'</c><00:07:59.920><c> fault.</c>

00:08:01.779 --> 00:08:05.600
Everyone<00:08:02.180><c> he</c><00:08:02.439><c> talked</c><00:08:02.980><c> to</c><00:08:03.899><c> was</c><00:08:04.480><c> blaming</c><00:08:04.920><c> someone</c><00:08:05.379><c> else.</c>

Then<00:08:05.759><c> he</c><00:08:05.920><c> talked</c><00:08:06.180><c> to</c><00:08:06.480><c> George.</c>

00:08:08.339 --> 00:08:10.199
He<00:08:08.459><c> said,</c><00:08:08.660><c> why</c><00:08:09.339><c> are</c><00:08:09.439><c> you</c><00:08:09.560><c> in</c><00:08:09.660><c> here,</c><00:08:09.800><c> George?</c>

00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:13.779
And<00:08:10.379><c> George</c><00:08:10.560><c> says,</c><00:08:10.779><c> well,</c><00:08:11.300><c> Governor,</c><00:08:12.600><c> I</c><00:08:12.779><c> committed</c><00:08:13.180><c> a</c><00:08:13.519><c> crime</c>

00:08:13.779 --> 00:08:15.300

00:08:15.980 --> 00:08:17.620
He<00:08:16.160><c> says,</c><00:08:16.279><c> I've</c><00:08:16.660><c> really</c><00:08:16.899><c> learned</c><00:08:17.100><c> my</c><00:08:17.379><c> lesson.</c>

00:08:17.620 --> 00:08:19.660
He<00:08:17.819><c> says,</c><00:08:18.279><c> I'm</c><00:08:18.560><c> paying</c><00:08:18.680><c> the</c><00:08:18.959><c> price.</c>

00:08:20.100 --> 00:08:23.819
He<00:08:20.319><c> says,</c><00:08:20.319><c> I</c><00:08:20.399><c> hope</c><00:08:20.639><c> when</c><00:08:20.800><c> I</c><00:08:20.959><c> get</c><00:08:21.139><c> out</c><00:08:21.319><c> of</c><00:08:21.379><c> here,</c><00:08:21.500><c> I</c><00:08:21.579><c> can</c><00:08:21.819><c> prove</c><00:08:22.040><c> to</c><00:08:22.279><c> society</c><00:08:22.759><c> that</c><00:08:23.019><c> I</c>

00:08:26.300 --> 00:08:27.939
But<00:08:26.480><c> I</c><00:08:26.660><c> sure</c><00:08:26.839><c> was</c><00:08:27.060><c> guilty.</c>

00:08:29.019 --> 00:08:31.360
The<00:08:29.319><c> governor</c><00:08:29.560><c> went</c><00:08:29.759><c> back</c><00:08:30.060><c> to</c><00:08:30.240><c> his</c><00:08:30.439><c> governor's</c><00:08:30.899><c> mansion</c><00:08:31.180><c> and</c>

00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:36.059
He<00:08:34.460><c> sent</c><00:08:34.659><c> it</c><00:08:34.799><c> to</c><00:08:34.919><c> the</c><00:08:35.120><c> warden</c><00:08:35.440><c> of</c><00:08:35.600><c> the</c><00:08:35.779><c> prison.</c>

00:08:36.220 --> 00:08:39.120
He<00:08:36.299><c> says,</c><00:08:36.440><c> I</c><00:08:36.559><c> want</c><00:08:36.740><c> you</c><00:08:36.940><c> to</c><00:08:37.200><c> release</c><00:08:37.500><c> George</c><00:08:37.879><c> from</c><00:08:38.139><c> prison.</c>

00:08:39.379 --> 00:08:41.940

00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:53.679
If<00:08:48.840><c> we</c><00:08:49.259><c> don't</c><00:08:49.620><c> confess</c><00:08:50.179><c> our</c><00:08:50.559><c> sins,</c><00:08:51.340><c> we</c><00:08:51.840><c> still</c><00:08:52.320><c> have</c><00:08:52.679><c> them.</c>

00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:59.240
And<00:08:55.279><c> so</c><00:08:55.679><c> James</c><00:08:56.039><c> gives</c><00:08:56.299><c> us</c><00:08:56.639><c> a</c><00:08:56.899><c> step</c><00:08:57.039><c>-by</c><00:08:57.360><c>-step</c><00:08:58.480><c> description</c><00:08:59.059><c> of</c>

00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:05.360
It's<00:09:02.840><c> in</c><00:09:03.100><c> James</c><00:09:03.379><c> 1,</c><00:09:03.840><c> verse</c><00:09:04.059><c> 14.</c>

00:09:06.179 --> 00:09:10.840

00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:14.620
But<00:09:12.080><c> each</c><00:09:12.500><c> one</c><00:09:12.740><c> is</c><00:09:13.039><c> tempted</c><00:09:13.279><c> when</c><00:09:13.460><c> he</c><00:09:13.639><c> is</c><00:09:13.779><c> drawn</c><00:09:14.000><c> away</c><00:09:14.259><c> of</c><00:09:14.460><c> his</c>

00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:20.559
No.

00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:21.960
No<00:09:21.080><c> sin.</c>

00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.019
Jesus<00:09:22.919><c> was</c><00:09:23.440><c> tempted</c><00:09:23.779><c> at</c><00:09:24.039><c> all</c><00:09:24.279><c> points</c><00:09:24.480><c> like</c><00:09:24.679><c> as</c><00:09:24.879><c> we</c><00:09:25.100><c> are.</c>

00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:29.100
He<00:09:26.299><c> certainly</c><00:09:26.659><c> had</c><00:09:26.940><c> desires</c><00:09:27.639><c> and</c><00:09:27.860><c> he</c><00:09:27.899><c> had</c><00:09:28.139><c> lusts</c><00:09:28.620><c> when</c><00:09:28.659><c> he</c><00:09:28.840><c> was</c>

00:09:31.779 --> 00:09:34.220

00:09:40.220 --> 00:09:42.539
You<00:09:40.620><c> can</c><00:09:40.899><c> tell</c><00:09:41.059><c> by</c><00:09:41.220><c> the</c><00:09:41.340><c> way</c><00:09:41.480><c> we</c><00:09:41.940><c> do</c><00:09:42.179><c> it</c><00:09:42.379><c> here.</c>

00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:43.840
There's<00:09:42.799><c> no</c><00:09:43.100><c> sins</c><00:09:43.279><c> being</c><00:09:43.539><c> committed.</c>

don't<00:09:46.519><c> we?</c>

00:09:47.500 --> 00:09:49.000
I<00:09:47.700><c> think</c><00:09:47.840><c> the</c><00:09:48.059><c> food</c><00:09:48.179><c> here</c><00:09:48.299><c> is</c><00:09:48.440><c> very</c><00:09:48.779><c> good.</c>

00:09:49.139 --> 00:09:52.159
I<00:09:49.259><c> hope</c><00:09:49.379><c> you</c><00:09:49.639><c> appreciate</c><00:09:50.399><c> the</c><00:09:51.039><c> hard</c><00:09:51.279><c> work</c><00:09:51.460><c> these</c><00:09:51.679><c> people</c><00:09:51.960><c> are.</c>

00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.840
Not<00:09:52.379><c> Christadelphians,</c><00:09:52.960><c> but</c><00:09:53.100><c> they're</c><00:09:53.779><c> working</c><00:09:54.019><c> hard</c><00:09:54.279><c> to</c><00:09:54.480><c> serve</c><00:09:54.639><c> us.</c>

00:09:55.019 --> 00:09:56.320
And<00:09:55.139><c> sometimes</c><00:09:55.320><c> we</c><00:09:55.500><c> ought</c><00:09:55.659><c> to</c><00:09:55.779><c> recognize</c><00:09:56.200><c> them.</c>

Good.<00:09:58.820><c> Good.</c>

00:10:00.700 --> 00:10:03.059
So<00:10:01.080><c> every</c><00:10:01.299><c> man</c><00:10:01.539><c> is</c><00:10:01.960><c> tempted</c><00:10:02.120><c> when</c><00:10:02.259><c> he's</c><00:10:02.460><c> drawn</c><00:10:02.559><c> away</c><00:10:02.799><c> of</c><00:10:02.919><c> his</c>

00:10:03.940 --> 00:10:09.639
You<00:10:04.779><c> see</c><00:10:05.320><c> something</c><00:10:05.820><c> that</c><00:10:06.059><c> you</c><00:10:06.360><c> want</c><00:10:06.860><c> that</c><00:10:07.899><c> you</c><00:10:08.080><c> shouldn't</c><00:10:08.399><c> have.</c>

And<00:10:13.559><c> then</c><00:10:14.059><c> you</c><00:10:16.059><c> keep</c><00:10:16.340><c> looking</c><00:10:16.679><c> at</c><00:10:16.940><c> it.</c>

00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:19.279
It<00:10:17.899><c> sure</c><00:10:18.000><c> would</c><00:10:18.120><c> be</c><00:10:18.179><c> nice</c><00:10:18.399><c> to</c><00:10:18.600><c> have</c><00:10:18.700><c> that,</c><00:10:19.139><c> wouldn't</c><00:10:19.139><c> it?</c>

00:10:19.340 --> 00:10:20.200
Yeah.

00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.539
I<00:10:20.580><c> need</c><00:10:20.759><c> it</c><00:10:21.080><c> more</c><00:10:21.220><c> than</c><00:10:21.360><c> he</c><00:10:21.519><c> needs</c><00:10:21.779><c> it.</c>

00:10:23.100 --> 00:10:29.120

00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:56.700
Death.

00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:05.000

Sin<00:12:13.360><c> is</c><00:12:13.799><c> fun,</c><00:12:14.559><c> but</c><00:12:14.700><c> it</c><00:12:14.860><c> doesn't</c><00:12:15.019><c> last</c><00:12:15.299><c> very</c><00:12:15.620><c> long.</c>

00:12:16.179 --> 00:12:20.679
Moses<00:12:16.639><c> chose</c><00:12:17.159><c> to</c><00:12:17.500><c> suffer</c><00:12:17.779><c> affliction</c><00:12:18.460><c> with</c><00:12:18.940><c> the</c><00:12:19.120><c> people</c><00:12:19.320><c> of</c><00:12:19.580><c> God,</c>

00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:30.259
Otherwise,<00:12:29.220><c> we</c><00:12:29.399><c> wouldn't</c><00:12:29.600><c> be</c><00:12:29.799><c> doing</c><00:12:29.940><c> it.</c>

00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:36.620

00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:40.620

the<00:13:40.779><c> edge.</c>

00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:45.720
And<00:13:41.960><c> we</c><00:13:42.840><c> get</c><00:13:42.980><c> too</c><00:13:43.259><c> close</c><00:13:43.460><c> to</c><00:13:43.620><c> the</c><00:13:43.740><c> edge,</c><00:13:44.639><c> and</c><00:13:44.919><c> we</c><00:13:45.039><c> go</c><00:13:45.159><c> over</c><00:13:45.340><c> the</c><00:13:45.500><c> edge.</c>

00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:48.240

00:13:49.059 --> 00:13:51.460
Plug<00:13:49.259><c> it</c><00:13:49.399><c> in</c><00:13:49.539><c> there,</c><00:13:49.759><c> because</c><00:13:49.899><c> it's</c><00:13:50.320><c> the</c><00:13:50.340><c> one</c><00:13:50.419><c> you</c><00:13:50.559><c> all</c><00:13:50.740><c> heard.</c>

with<00:14:06.519><c> scripture.</c>

00:14:07.100 --> 00:14:08.379
And<00:14:07.220><c> we</c><00:14:07.340><c> talked</c><00:14:07.559><c> about</c><00:14:07.820><c> that</c><00:14:08.039><c> the</c><00:14:08.080><c> other</c><00:14:08.259><c> day.</c>

10<00:14:12.039><c>.13,</c>

00:14:12.539 --> 00:14:14.519
because<00:14:12.960><c> I</c><00:14:13.519><c> know</c><00:14:13.759><c> I'm</c><00:14:13.899><c> being</c><00:14:14.159><c> tempted.</c>

00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:17.600
There's<00:14:14.960><c> no</c><00:14:15.120><c> temptation</c><00:14:15.539><c> taking</c><00:14:15.820><c> me,</c><00:14:16.820><c> but</c><00:14:16.980><c> such</c><00:14:17.200><c> is</c><00:14:17.379><c> his</c>

common<00:14:17.820><c> demand.</c>

00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.240
So<00:14:18.480><c> other</c><00:14:19.139><c> people</c><00:14:19.320><c> have</c><00:14:19.360><c> been</c><00:14:19.539><c> through</c><00:14:19.759><c> this.</c>

00:14:20.580 --> 00:14:22.639
Lord<00:14:20.759><c> Jesus</c><00:14:21.139><c> Christ</c><00:14:21.379><c> has</c><00:14:21.500><c> been</c><00:14:21.659><c> through</c><00:14:21.919><c> every</c><00:14:22.220><c> temptation</c>

00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:38.759
And<00:14:34.840><c> so</c><00:14:35.299><c> you'll</c><00:14:36.159><c> provide</c><00:14:36.360><c> the</c><00:14:36.580><c> way</c><00:14:36.720><c> of</c><00:14:36.980><c> escape</c><00:14:37.559><c> that</c><00:14:38.360><c> you</c><00:14:38.539><c> may</c>

00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:45.940
Now<00:14:43.120><c> come</c><00:14:43.379><c> down</c><00:14:43.659><c> to</c><00:14:43.840><c> verse</c><00:14:44.220><c> 19</c><00:14:44.799><c> of</c><00:14:45.080><c> the</c><00:14:45.200><c> first</c><00:14:45.460><c> chapter</c><00:14:45.820><c> of</c>

00:14:52.299 --> 00:14:55.539
So<00:14:52.299><c> then,</c><00:14:52.740><c> my</c><00:14:52.799><c> beloved</c><00:14:53.139><c> brethren,</c><00:14:53.580><c> let</c><00:14:54.039><c> every</c><00:14:54.379><c> man</c><00:14:54.539><c> be</c><00:14:54.940><c> swift</c>

00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:07.320
For<00:15:04.120><c> the</c><00:15:04.240><c> wrath</c><00:15:04.399><c> of</c><00:15:04.600><c> man</c><00:15:04.820><c> does</c><00:15:05.080><c> not</c><00:15:05.240><c> produce</c><00:15:05.600><c> the</c><00:15:05.759><c> righteousness</c><00:15:06.100><c> of</c><00:15:06.340><c> God.</c>

00:15:09.379 --> 00:15:13.879
Now<00:15:09.899><c> Paul,</c><00:15:11.620><c> in</c><00:15:11.820><c> Hebrews,</c><00:15:12.440><c> I</c><00:15:12.639><c> believe</c><00:15:12.759><c> Paul</c><00:15:12.960><c> wrote</c><00:15:13.139><c> Hebrews,</c>

00:15:16.580 --> 00:15:19.639
we're<00:15:16.820><c> told,</c><00:15:17.159><c> of</c><00:15:17.159><c> whom</c><00:15:17.419><c> we</c><00:15:17.700><c> have</c><00:15:18.240><c> much</c><00:15:18.500><c> to</c><00:15:18.720><c> say</c><00:15:18.879><c> and</c><00:15:19.019><c> hard</c><00:15:19.220><c> to</c><00:15:19.379><c> explain,</c>

00:15:19.740 --> 00:15:22.440
since<00:15:19.919><c> you've</c><00:15:20.720><c> become</c><00:15:21.080><c> dull</c><00:15:21.340><c> of</c><00:15:21.620><c> hearing.</c>

00:15:22.500 --> 00:15:25.100
James<00:15:22.679><c> says</c><00:15:22.820><c> to</c><00:15:23.000><c> be</c><00:15:23.200><c> swift</c><00:15:23.480><c> to</c><00:15:23.759><c> hear,</c><00:15:24.360><c> and</c><00:15:24.539><c> Paul</c><00:15:24.659><c> says</c><00:15:24.840><c> you're</c>

00:15:25.100 --> 00:15:26.019

00:15:26.460 --> 00:15:27.700
Just<00:15:26.659><c> the</c><00:15:26.879><c> opposite.</c>

00:15:28.500 --> 00:15:32.720
So<00:15:29.019><c> let's</c><00:15:29.539><c> try</c><00:15:29.879><c> not</c><00:15:30.120><c> to</c><00:15:30.320><c> be</c><00:15:30.639><c> dull</c><00:15:31.139><c> in</c><00:15:31.500><c> hearing,</c><00:15:31.720><c> but</c><00:15:32.000><c> swift</c><00:15:32.320><c> to</c><00:15:32.559><c> hear.</c>

00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:35.159
Now<00:15:33.480><c> listening</c><00:15:33.879><c> is</c><00:15:34.220><c> an</c><00:15:34.399><c> art.</c>

00:15:35.620 --> 00:15:36.720

00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:03.559
We<00:16:01.279><c> were</c><00:16:01.559><c> at</c><00:16:01.799><c> the</c><00:16:02.000><c> Shippensburg</c><00:16:02.440><c> Bible</c><00:16:02.779><c> School</c><00:16:03.019><c> this</c><00:16:03.259><c> summer,</c>

00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:11.220
I<00:16:09.860><c> think</c><00:16:10.019><c> that's</c><00:16:10.240><c> a</c><00:16:10.440><c> wonderful</c><00:16:10.759><c> thing.</c>

00:16:11.620 --> 00:16:14.840
We<00:16:11.740><c> have</c><00:16:11.960><c> a</c><00:16:12.139><c> deaf</c><00:16:12.279><c> brother</c><00:16:12.539><c> out</c><00:16:12.820><c> our</c><00:16:13.080><c> way,</c><00:16:13.299><c> Brother</c><00:16:13.500><c> Robert</c><00:16:13.820><c> Devine.</c>

00:16:14.860 --> 00:16:18.100

00:16:18.539 --> 00:16:21.480
So<00:16:18.539><c> whenever</c><00:16:19.399><c> I'm</c><00:16:20.259><c> going</c><00:16:20.360><c> to</c><00:16:20.440><c> be</c><00:16:20.679><c> giving</c><00:16:20.759><c> a</c><00:16:20.919><c> talk</c><00:16:21.100><c> someplace</c>

00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:22.360
and<00:16:21.679><c> he's</c><00:16:21.919><c> going</c><00:16:22.039><c> to</c><00:16:22.179><c> go,</c>

00:16:22.379 --> 00:16:23.519
he<00:16:22.500><c> knows</c><00:16:22.639><c> I</c><00:16:22.740><c> have</c><00:16:22.980><c> complete</c><00:16:23.259><c> notes.</c>

00:16:23.539 --> 00:16:26.340
He<00:16:23.700><c> always</c><00:16:23.960><c> calls</c><00:16:24.159><c> me</c><00:16:24.360><c> and</c><00:16:24.620><c> I</c><00:16:24.879><c> make</c><00:16:25.000><c> a</c><00:16:25.120><c> set</c><00:16:25.259><c> of</c><00:16:25.360><c> notes</c><00:16:25.600><c> for</c><00:16:25.820><c> him,</c>

00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:29.799
because<00:16:26.899><c> usually</c><00:16:27.620><c> we</c><00:16:27.740><c> don't</c><00:16:27.919><c> have</c><00:16:28.200><c> signers</c><00:16:28.519><c> out</c><00:16:28.740><c> our</c><00:16:28.960><c> way</c><00:16:29.120><c> for</c><00:16:29.379><c> him.</c>

00:16:29.799 --> 00:16:34.240
But<00:16:30.659><c> we</c><00:16:31.279><c> should</c><00:16:31.820><c> not</c><00:16:32.460><c> take</c><00:16:32.659><c> for</c><00:16:32.940><c> granted</c><00:16:33.179><c> our</c><00:16:33.480><c> hearing.</c>

But<00:16:34.480><c> the</c><00:16:34.899><c> fact</c><00:16:35.039><c> you</c><00:16:35.179><c> can</c><00:16:35.480><c> hear</c><00:16:35.639><c> doesn't</c><00:16:35.919><c> mean</c><00:16:36.139><c> you</c><00:16:36.360><c> always</c><00:16:36.759><c> hear.</c>

00:16:38.299 --> 00:16:41.320

00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:49.820

They<00:18:25.039><c> will</c><00:18:25.279><c> talk</c><00:18:25.599><c> and</c><00:18:25.819><c> then</c><00:18:26.019><c> they</c><00:18:26.200><c> will</c><00:18:27.680><c> stop</c><00:18:28.539><c> a</c><00:18:28.700><c> minute</c><00:18:28.799><c> and</c>

00:18:28.880 --> 00:18:29.240
let<00:18:28.980><c> you</c><00:18:29.160><c> sit.</c>

00:18:29.279 --> 00:18:32.519
But<00:18:29.400><c> they</c><00:18:30.819><c> don't</c><00:18:30.900><c> pay</c><00:18:31.059><c> attention</c><00:18:31.359><c> to</c><00:18:31.400><c> what</c><00:18:31.519><c> you're</c><00:18:31.680><c> saying.</c>

00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:35.640
And<00:18:33.680><c> then</c><00:18:34.039><c> no</c><00:18:34.359><c> matter</c><00:18:34.480><c> what</c><00:18:34.660><c> you</c><00:18:34.900><c> said</c><00:18:35.059><c> and</c><00:18:35.200><c> all</c><00:18:35.359><c> the</c><00:18:35.500><c> good</c>

00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:36.079
proofs<00:18:35.940><c> you've</c>

00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:37.319
made,<00:18:36.259><c> they</c><00:18:36.519><c> say,</c><00:18:36.859><c> well,</c><00:18:36.980><c> that's</c><00:18:37.099><c> nice.</c>

00:18:37.339 --> 00:18:38.579
And<00:18:37.440><c> then</c><00:18:37.519><c> you</c><00:18:37.559><c> go</c><00:18:37.700><c> right</c><00:18:37.839><c> in</c><00:18:38.000><c> again</c><00:18:38.180><c> on</c><00:18:38.359><c> there.</c>

00:18:38.579 --> 00:18:40.539
So<00:18:39.079><c> the</c><00:18:39.200><c> only</c><00:18:39.299><c> way</c><00:18:39.319><c> you</c><00:18:39.420><c> can</c><00:18:39.579><c> keep</c><00:18:39.680><c> those</c><00:18:39.900><c> people</c><00:18:40.160><c> listening</c>

00:18:40.539 --> 00:18:40.940
to<00:18:40.740><c> you</c><00:18:40.839><c> is</c>

00:18:40.940 --> 00:18:41.900

00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:42.359
What's<00:18:42.180><c> your</c><00:18:42.220><c> name?</c>

00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:43.039
Are<00:18:42.559><c> you</c><00:18:42.559><c> a</c><00:18:42.619><c> Jehovah's</c><00:18:42.900><c> Witness?</c>

00:18:43.380 --> 00:18:44.500
Do<00:18:43.559><c> you</c><00:18:43.640><c> believe</c><00:18:43.819><c> in</c><00:18:43.980><c> Pastor</c><00:18:44.220><c> Russell?</c>

00:18:44.579 --> 00:18:45.579
Oh,<00:18:44.960><c> yeah,</c><00:18:45.039><c> he</c><00:18:45.119><c> was</c><00:18:45.279><c> a</c><00:18:45.359><c> good</c><00:18:45.480><c> guy.</c>

00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:46.880
He<00:18:45.720><c> won</c><00:18:45.819><c> 144</c><00:18:46.319><c>,000.</c>

00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:48.779
And<00:18:47.380><c> do</c><00:18:47.440><c> you</c><00:18:47.579><c> believe</c><00:18:47.720><c> that</c><00:18:47.900><c> Jews</c><00:18:48.019><c> have</c><00:18:48.200><c> any</c><00:18:48.319><c> hope</c><00:18:48.480><c> now?</c>

00:18:48.859 --> 00:18:49.480
Oh,<00:18:49.180><c> no.</c>

00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:50.240
Which<00:18:49.779><c> was</c><00:18:49.960><c> right?</c>

00:18:50.460 --> 00:18:52.140
Pastor<00:18:50.839><c> Russell</c><00:18:51.160><c> or</c><00:18:51.299><c> you?</c>

00:18:52.940 --> 00:18:56.059
But<00:18:53.319><c> you</c><00:18:53.700><c> keep</c><00:18:53.960><c> asking</c><00:18:54.259><c> them</c><00:18:54.500><c> questions</c><00:18:55.019><c> rather</c><00:18:55.359><c> than</c><00:18:55.519><c> just</c>

00:18:56.059 --> 00:18:56.420
telling<00:18:56.220><c> them,</c>

00:18:56.420 --> 00:18:57.740
you<00:18:56.680><c> know,</c><00:18:56.680><c> well,</c><00:18:56.779><c> you</c><00:18:56.920><c> believe</c><00:18:57.059><c> the</c><00:18:57.220><c> wrong</c><00:18:57.420><c> thing</c><00:18:57.579><c> because</c>

00:18:57.740 --> 00:18:58.339
you<00:18:58.099><c> think</c>

00:18:58.339 --> 00:18:59.299
the<00:18:58.500><c> Jews</c><00:18:58.599><c> have</c><00:18:58.799><c> no</c><00:18:59.000><c> hope.</c>

00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:00.619
What<00:18:59.880><c> about</c><00:19:00.019><c> Pastor</c><00:19:00.299><c> Russell?</c>

00:19:00.619 --> 00:19:01.619
Oh,<00:19:00.900><c> yeah,</c><00:19:01.019><c> he</c><00:19:01.200><c> had</c><00:19:01.420><c> hope.</c>

00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:02.619
He<00:19:01.980><c> won</c><00:19:02.119><c> the</c><00:19:02.299><c> 44.</c>

00:19:02.900 --> 00:19:03.720
Imagine<00:19:03.279><c> that.</c>

00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.599
Pastor<00:19:04.420><c> Russell</c><00:19:04.720><c> made</c><00:19:04.960><c> it</c><00:19:05.420><c> and</c><00:19:05.559><c> John</c><00:19:05.799><c> the</c><00:19:05.940><c> Baptist</c><00:19:06.240><c> didn't.</c>

00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:09.519
It<00:19:08.099><c> blows</c><00:19:08.240><c> me</c><00:19:08.480><c> away.</c>

00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:16.539
But<00:19:12.700><c> when</c><00:19:13.079><c> we're</c><00:19:13.359><c> talking</c><00:19:13.640><c> with</c><00:19:13.920><c> each</c><00:19:14.220><c> other,</c><00:19:15.759><c> listen.</c>

00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:19.720
Whenever<00:19:17.220><c> –</c><00:19:17.319><c> oh,</c><00:19:17.599><c> glad</c><00:19:17.740><c> I</c><00:19:17.819><c> don't</c><00:19:17.980><c> see</c><00:19:18.119><c> this</c><00:19:18.279><c> right</c><00:19:18.519><c> now.</c>

00:19:19.740 --> 00:19:21.079
But,<00:19:20.200><c> well,</c><00:19:20.400><c> I</c><00:19:20.480><c> do</c><00:19:20.740><c> see</c><00:19:20.900><c> it.</c>

00:19:21.140 --> 00:19:22.099
Harley.

00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:29.420
Whenever<00:19:25.079><c> I</c><00:19:25.279><c> see</c><00:19:25.539><c> somebody</c><00:19:26.099><c> sitting</c><00:19:26.480><c> like</c><00:19:26.900><c> this,</c><00:19:29.099><c> you</c><00:19:29.200><c> know,</c>

it's<00:19:29.779><c> body</c><00:19:30.079><c> language.</c>

00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:34.460
That<00:19:31.500><c> means</c><00:19:31.779><c> I'm</c><00:19:32.500><c> trying</c><00:19:32.660><c> not</c><00:19:32.859><c> to</c><00:19:33.039><c> listen</c><00:19:33.180><c> to</c><00:19:33.319><c> what</c><00:19:33.420><c> you're</c><00:19:33.619><c> saying.</c>

00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:39.240
He's<00:19:37.940><c> heard</c><00:19:38.039><c> it</c><00:19:38.220><c> before.</c>

00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:41.079
It's<00:19:39.599><c> okay</c><00:19:39.980><c> then.</c>

00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:44.200
But<00:19:41.519><c> really,</c><00:19:42.119><c> if</c><00:19:42.299><c> you</c><00:19:42.500><c> want</c><00:19:42.720><c> to</c><00:19:43.160><c> really</c><00:19:43.539><c> listen</c><00:19:43.779><c> to</c><00:19:43.980><c> people,</c>

even<00:19:44.700><c> use</c><00:19:45.019><c> your</c><00:19:45.259><c> body.</c>

00:19:46.359 --> 00:19:49.380

00:19:52.500 --> 00:19:53.519
Is<00:19:52.660><c> that</c><00:19:53.059><c> right?</c>

00:19:53.859 --> 00:19:54.380
Wow.

00:19:54.380 --> 00:19:55.200
You<00:19:54.380><c> know.</c>

00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:02.500
I'm<00:20:01.119><c> off</c><00:20:01.359><c> the</c><00:20:01.579><c> air.</c>

00:21:27.700 --> 00:21:30.539
You<00:21:27.920><c> know,</c><00:21:27.980><c> if</c><00:21:28.059><c> you</c><00:21:28.259><c> fold</c><00:21:28.259><c> your</c><00:21:28.420><c> arms</c><00:21:28.500><c> the</c><00:21:28.680><c> wrong</c><00:21:28.880><c> way,</c><00:21:29.240><c> it</c><00:21:29.299><c> doesn't</c><00:21:29.400><c> seem</c><00:21:29.579><c> so</c><00:21:29.700><c> comfortable.</c>

00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:37.720
Slow<00:21:34.759><c> to</c><00:21:35.240><c> speak</c><00:21:35.880><c> is</c><00:21:36.779><c> next.</c>

00:21:45.339 --> 00:21:49.920
They're<00:21:45.700><c> swift</c><00:21:46.019><c> to</c><00:21:46.259><c> speak</c><00:21:46.779><c> and</c><00:21:48.000><c> slow</c><00:21:48.259><c> to</c><00:21:48.500><c> hear,</c><00:21:49.240><c> just</c><00:21:49.359><c> the</c><00:21:49.500><c> opposite</c><00:21:49.759><c> of</c>

00:21:52.700 --> 00:21:55.099
Now,<00:21:52.880><c> how</c><00:21:52.980><c> many</c><00:21:53.240><c> times</c><00:21:53.480><c> have</c><00:21:53.680><c> we</c><00:21:53.920><c> blurted</c><00:21:54.259><c> out</c><00:21:54.519><c> something</c><00:21:54.819><c> and</c>

00:21:55.099 --> 00:21:57.759
wished<00:21:55.240><c> we</c><00:21:55.400><c> could</c><00:21:55.559><c> have</c><00:21:55.779><c> reached</c><00:21:56.039><c> out</c><00:21:56.279><c> and</c><00:21:56.460><c> pulled</c><00:21:56.660><c> it</c><00:21:56.920><c> back?</c>

00:21:58.240 --> 00:21:59.880
It's<00:21:58.660><c> too</c><00:21:58.920><c> late.</c>

00:22:00.220 --> 00:22:02.200
It's<00:22:00.380><c> already</c><00:22:00.619><c> been</c><00:22:00.920><c> said.</c>

00:22:02.660 --> 00:22:03.779
Somebody's<00:22:03.099><c> been</c><00:22:03.420><c> hurt.</c>

00:22:03.779 --> 00:22:08.099
So<00:22:04.619><c> often</c><00:22:05.019><c> in</c><00:22:05.359><c> families,</c><00:22:05.839><c> we</c><00:22:06.079><c> say</c><00:22:06.460><c> cunning</c><00:22:06.960><c> remarks</c><00:22:07.440><c> to</c><00:22:07.640><c> each</c><00:22:07.880><c> other.</c>

00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:12.059
We<00:22:08.440><c> wouldn't</c><00:22:08.779><c> dare</c><00:22:09.079><c> say</c><00:22:09.299><c> these</c><00:22:09.619><c> things</c><00:22:09.920><c> to</c><00:22:10.440><c> the</c><00:22:10.619><c> people</c><00:22:10.759><c> in</c><00:22:10.960><c> the</c><00:22:11.200><c> store,</c><00:22:11.599><c> certainly</c><00:22:11.839><c> to</c>

00:22:12.059 --> 00:22:13.279
our<00:22:12.279><c> boss,</c>

00:22:13.299 --> 00:22:16.160

00:22:16.440 --> 00:22:19.039
We<00:22:16.579><c> say</c><00:22:17.039><c> mean</c><00:22:17.559><c> things.</c>

00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:25.240
If<00:22:20.279><c> we</c><00:22:20.480><c> could</c><00:22:20.660><c> just</c><00:22:21.700><c> bite</c><00:22:22.140><c> our</c><00:22:22.460><c> tongue</c><00:22:22.960><c> and</c><00:22:24.180><c> not</c><00:22:24.720><c> blurt</c><00:22:24.920><c> out</c>

00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:27.140

00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:30.119
Is<00:22:27.799><c> this</c><00:22:28.019><c> helpful</c><00:22:28.640><c> to</c><00:22:28.880><c> the</c><00:22:29.039><c> situation?</c>

00:22:30.380 --> 00:22:34.519
Solomon<00:22:30.900><c> says</c><00:22:31.160><c> there</c><00:22:31.319><c> is</c><00:22:31.539><c> a</c><00:22:31.700><c> time</c><00:22:31.839><c> to</c><00:22:32.039><c> keep</c><00:22:32.240><c> silence</c><00:22:32.779><c> and</c><00:22:33.019><c> a</c><00:22:33.160><c> time</c><00:22:33.319><c> to</c><00:22:33.579><c> speak.</c>

00:22:43.059 --> 00:22:47.220
It's<00:22:43.240><c> better</c><00:22:43.420><c> to</c><00:22:43.720><c> remain</c><00:22:44.119><c> silent</c><00:22:44.799><c> and</c><00:22:44.980><c> be</c><00:22:45.200><c> thought</c><00:22:45.359><c> a</c><00:22:45.599><c> fool</c><00:22:46.019><c> than</c><00:22:46.960><c> to</c>

00:22:50.839 --> 00:22:54.960
Now,<00:22:51.220><c> when</c><00:22:51.359><c> he</c><00:22:51.660><c> said</c><00:22:51.859><c> that,</c><00:22:52.099><c> you</c><00:22:52.220><c> know,</c><00:22:52.359><c> he</c><00:22:52.380><c> was</c><00:22:53.039><c> a</c><00:22:53.200><c> Bible</c><00:22:53.519><c> student,</c><00:22:54.339><c> Abraham</c><00:22:54.579><c> Lincoln</c><00:22:54.799><c> was.</c>

Even<00:23:08.079><c> a</c><00:23:08.380><c> fool</c><00:23:08.720><c> is</c><00:23:09.039><c> counted</c><00:23:09.319><c> wise</c><00:23:10.059><c> when</c><00:23:10.559><c> he</c><00:23:10.779><c> holds</c><00:23:11.079><c> his</c><00:23:11.380><c> peace.</c>

00:25:13.240 --> 00:25:14.839
We<00:25:13.420><c> can</c><00:25:13.539><c> think</c><00:25:13.700><c> of</c><00:25:13.819><c> many</c><00:25:14.079><c> Bible</c><00:25:14.380><c> examples.</c>

00:25:27.819 --> 00:25:31.900
So<00:25:27.880><c> they</c><00:25:28.000><c> went</c><00:25:28.240><c> ill</c><00:25:28.480><c> with</c><00:25:28.680><c> Moses</c><00:25:29.099><c> for</c><00:25:29.359><c> their</c><00:25:29.700><c> sakes</c><00:25:30.400><c> because</c>

00:25:34.700 --> 00:25:41.339

00:25:44.500 --> 00:25:47.680
James<00:25:45.180><c> is</c><00:25:45.420><c> giving</c><00:25:45.559><c> us</c><00:25:45.920><c> very</c><00:25:46.420><c> practical</c><00:25:46.819><c> advice</c><00:25:47.259><c> that</c><00:25:47.380><c> we</c><00:25:47.519><c> need</c>

00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:57.839
I<00:25:52.660><c> wonder</c><00:25:52.779><c> how</c><00:25:52.940><c> many</c><00:25:53.240><c> people</c><00:25:53.539><c> will</c><00:25:53.779><c> be</c><00:25:53.940><c> kept</c><00:25:54.140><c> out</c><00:25:54.359><c> of</c><00:25:54.500><c> the</c><00:25:54.720><c> kingdom</c><00:25:55.180><c> because</c><00:25:57.480><c> they</c>

have<00:25:58.180><c> been</c><00:25:59.519><c> quick</c><00:26:00.099><c> to</c><00:26:00.720><c> wrath</c><00:26:01.220><c> and</c><00:26:02.400><c> quick</c><00:26:02.759><c> to</c><00:26:03.140><c> say</c><00:26:03.380><c> things.</c>

00:26:04.660 --> 00:26:07.980
And<00:26:04.819><c> sometimes</c><00:26:05.099><c> because</c><00:26:05.500><c> of</c><00:26:05.799><c> pride,</c><00:26:06.839><c> they</c><00:26:07.000><c> then</c><00:26:07.259><c> later</c><00:26:07.599><c> won't</c>

00:26:10.940 --> 00:26:13.819
I<00:26:11.420><c> think</c><00:26:11.640><c> that's</c><00:26:12.200><c> terribly</c><00:26:12.599><c> sad.</c>

00:26:14.259 --> 00:26:16.019
I<00:26:14.299><c> think</c><00:26:14.440><c> I'll</c><00:26:14.579><c> tell</c><00:26:14.740><c> you</c><00:26:14.859><c> my</c><00:26:15.039><c> 12</c><00:26:15.279><c> magic</c><00:26:15.640><c> words.</c>

00:26:16.220 --> 00:26:18.759

00:26:19.380 --> 00:26:23.319
Because<00:26:19.559><c> it's</c><00:26:19.779><c> on</c><00:26:19.980><c> the</c><00:26:20.220><c> subject</c><00:26:20.579><c> of</c><00:26:21.420><c> we</c><00:26:21.980><c> have</c><00:26:22.339><c> to</c><00:26:22.480><c> be</c><00:26:22.720><c> willing</c>

00:26:32.259 --> 00:26:36.740
And<00:26:32.740><c> so</c><00:26:33.220><c> the</c><00:26:34.000><c> story</c><00:26:34.160><c> behind</c><00:26:34.420><c> this</c><00:26:34.640><c> talk</c><00:26:34.799><c> took</c><00:26:35.039><c> place</c><00:26:35.240><c> in</c><00:26:35.380><c> New</c><00:26:35.619><c> Zealand.</c>

We<00:26:37.720><c> were</c><00:26:37.859><c> at</c><00:26:37.960><c> a</c><00:26:38.059><c> Bible</c><00:26:38.279><c> school</c><00:26:38.480><c> in</c><00:26:38.559><c> New</c><00:26:38.759><c> Zealand</c><00:26:39.000><c> and</c><00:26:39.319><c> the</c><00:26:40.079><c> parents</c><00:26:40.500><c> of</c><00:26:40.839><c> teenagers</c><00:26:41.319><c> came</c><00:26:41.579><c> to</c><00:26:41.700><c> me</c><00:26:41.880><c> one</c><00:26:42.099><c> day,</c><00:26:42.259><c> a</c>

00:26:42.359 --> 00:26:43.059
couple<00:26:42.559><c> of</c><00:26:42.819><c> parents,</c>

00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:45.200
and<00:26:43.240><c> they</c><00:26:43.279><c> said,</c><00:26:43.759><c> would</c><00:26:43.900><c> you</c><00:26:44.059><c> be</c><00:26:44.200><c> willing</c><00:26:44.339><c> to</c><00:26:44.480><c> give</c><00:26:44.599><c> a</c><00:26:44.779><c> talk</c><00:26:44.960><c> to</c>

00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:47.720
the<00:26:45.460><c> parents</c><00:26:45.740><c> just</c><00:26:45.940><c> of</c><00:26:46.140><c> teenagers</c><00:26:46.599><c> after</c><00:26:47.200><c> everything</c><00:26:47.460><c> was</c>

00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:48.619
over<00:26:47.980><c> one</c><00:26:48.240><c> evening?</c>

00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:50.920
And<00:26:48.980><c> I</c><00:26:49.059><c> said,</c><00:26:49.539><c> yes,</c><00:26:50.279><c> yes,</c><00:26:50.660><c> sure.</c>

00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:56.160
So<00:26:51.539><c> they</c><00:26:51.740><c> set</c><00:26:51.859><c> up</c><00:26:52.000><c> a</c><00:26:52.160><c> room</c><00:26:52.299><c> for</c><00:26:52.599><c> us</c><00:26:52.819><c> and</c><00:26:53.000><c> it</c><00:26:53.079><c> was</c><00:26:54.680><c> not</c><00:26:55.319><c> quite</c><00:26:55.579><c> this</c><00:26:55.819><c> many,</c><00:26:56.140><c> but</c>

00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:58.279
there<00:26:56.359><c> was</c><00:26:56.740><c> quite</c><00:26:57.200><c> a</c><00:26:57.380><c> few.</c>

00:26:58.299 --> 00:27:05.119
There<00:26:58.680><c> may</c><00:26:58.900><c> be</c><00:26:59.720><c> 50</c><00:27:00.079><c> to</c><00:27:00.259><c> 75</c><00:27:00.759><c> people</c><00:27:01.200><c> in</c><00:27:01.380><c> this</c><00:27:01.599><c> room,</c><00:27:03.359><c> all</c><00:27:03.539><c> parents</c><00:27:03.799><c> of</c><00:27:04.039><c> teenagers.</c>

00:27:05.220 --> 00:27:07.299
Of<00:27:05.619><c> course,</c><00:27:05.880><c> I</c><00:27:06.000><c> didn't</c><00:27:06.180><c> know</c><00:27:06.319><c> I</c><00:27:06.400><c> was</c><00:27:06.519><c> going</c><00:27:06.660><c> to</c><00:27:06.779><c> do</c><00:27:06.920><c> this,</c><00:27:07.140><c> so</c>

00:27:07.299 --> 00:27:07.859
I'm<00:27:07.579><c> grappling.</c>

00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:08.819
What<00:27:08.119><c> am</c><00:27:08.259><c> I</c><00:27:08.339><c> going</c><00:27:08.480><c> to</c><00:27:08.660><c> say?</c>

00:27:08.980 --> 00:27:11.460
So<00:27:09.039><c> I</c><00:27:09.380><c> thought</c><00:27:09.559><c> I'll</c><00:27:09.740><c> tell</c><00:27:09.920><c> about</c><00:27:10.079><c> my</c><00:27:10.319><c> 12</c><00:27:10.539><c> magic</c><00:27:10.900><c> words</c><00:27:11.259><c> and</c>

00:27:11.460 --> 00:27:12.299
I'll<00:27:11.660><c> tell</c><00:27:11.779><c> them</c><00:27:11.900><c> with</c><00:27:12.119><c> you.</c>

00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:13.980
And<00:27:12.759><c> so</c><00:27:12.880><c> I</c><00:27:12.960><c> told</c><00:27:13.140><c> them</c><00:27:13.240><c> what</c><00:27:13.359><c> they</c><00:27:13.660><c> are.</c>

00:27:14.019 --> 00:27:17.380
They<00:27:14.319><c> are</c><00:27:15.420><c> worth</c><00:27:15.680><c> remembering</c><00:27:16.299><c> and</c><00:27:16.559><c> then</c><00:27:16.779><c> worth</c><00:27:17.019><c> using.</c>

00:27:17.579 --> 00:27:19.400
They<00:27:17.660><c> were</c><00:27:17.799><c> I</c><00:27:18.019><c> was</c><00:27:18.319><c> wrong.</c>

00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:22.019
I'm<00:27:21.119><c> sorry.</c>

00:27:23.259 --> 00:27:25.039
Please<00:27:23.579><c> forgive</c><00:27:23.940><c> me.</c>

00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:27.279
I<00:27:26.000><c> love</c><00:27:26.259><c> you.</c>

00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:31.660
Now,<00:27:28.980><c> I</c><00:27:29.220><c> think</c><00:27:29.559><c> that</c><00:27:29.819><c> husbands</c><00:27:30.200><c> and</c><00:27:30.460><c> wives</c><00:27:30.779><c> should</c><00:27:31.059><c> say</c><00:27:31.299><c> those</c>

00:27:31.660 --> 00:27:37.220

00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:38.259
and<00:27:37.400><c> we</c><00:27:37.559><c> should</c><00:27:37.700><c> be</c><00:27:37.980><c> sorry.</c>

00:27:38.380 --> 00:27:40.319
We<00:27:38.559><c> should</c><00:27:38.940><c> be</c><00:27:39.240><c> asked</c><00:27:39.240><c> to</c><00:27:39.400><c> be</c><00:27:39.559><c> forgiven</c><00:27:39.759><c> and</c><00:27:39.940><c> we</c><00:27:40.079><c> certainly</c>

00:27:40.319 --> 00:27:42.140
should<00:27:40.640><c> love</c><00:27:40.859><c> our</c><00:27:41.099><c> spouse.</c>

00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:47.119
But<00:27:43.960><c> also</c><00:27:44.619><c> during</c><00:27:44.880><c> the</c><00:27:45.140><c> talk,</c><00:27:45.619><c> I</c><00:27:46.019><c> told</c><00:27:46.200><c> about</c><00:27:46.420><c> a</c><00:27:46.599><c> little</c><00:27:46.819><c> plaque</c><00:27:47.019><c> that</c>

00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:54.279
this<00:27:53.019><c> house.</c>

00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:58.359
Rule<00:27:54.839><c> number</c><00:27:55.240><c> one,</c><00:27:56.160><c> father</c><00:27:56.539><c> is</c><00:27:56.819><c> always</c><00:27:57.160><c> right.</c>

00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:03.680
Rule<00:27:59.880><c> number</c><00:28:00.299><c> two,</c><00:28:01.539><c> when</c><00:28:01.740><c> father</c><00:28:02.059><c> is</c><00:28:02.339><c> wrong,</c><00:28:03.279><c> rule</c><00:28:03.380><c> number</c>

00:28:06.420 --> 00:28:09.240
So<00:28:06.740><c> after</c><00:28:07.059><c> the</c><00:28:07.299><c> class</c><00:28:07.480><c> was</c><00:28:07.740><c> over,</c><00:28:08.180><c> this</c><00:28:08.259><c> one</c><00:28:08.539><c> sister</c><00:28:08.960><c> turned</c>

00:28:11.500 --> 00:28:12.500
what<00:28:11.599><c> do</c><00:28:11.740><c> you</c><00:28:11.779><c> think</c><00:28:11.920><c> of</c><00:28:12.059><c> this</c><00:28:12.259><c> talk?</c>

00:28:12.579 --> 00:28:15.299
He<00:28:12.700><c> says,</c><00:28:12.839><c> I</c><00:28:13.019><c> like</c><00:28:13.319><c> the</c><00:28:13.599><c> rules</c><00:28:13.880><c> of</c><00:28:14.099><c> this</c><00:28:14.339><c> house.</c>

00:28:16.599 --> 00:28:19.720
She<00:28:16.900><c> came</c><00:28:17.160><c> to</c><00:28:17.380><c> me</c><00:28:17.599><c> a</c><00:28:17.720><c> little</c><00:28:17.900><c> later</c><00:28:18.319><c> in</c><00:28:18.500><c> the</c><00:28:18.640><c> evening</c><00:28:18.920><c> with</c><00:28:19.200><c> tears</c><00:28:19.440><c> in</c>

00:28:23.759 --> 00:28:27.140
My<00:28:23.980><c> husband</c><00:28:24.279><c> has</c><00:28:24.579><c> never</c><00:28:24.940><c> once</c><00:28:25.440><c> said</c><00:28:25.700><c> he</c><00:28:25.859><c> was</c><00:28:26.140><c> wrong.</c>

00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:31.440
He<00:28:28.279><c> has</c><00:28:28.420><c> never</c><00:28:28.700><c> once</c><00:28:29.079><c> said</c><00:28:29.440><c> he</c><00:28:30.140><c> was</c><00:28:30.440><c> sorry.</c>

00:28:36.180 --> 00:28:37.440
Now,<00:28:36.380><c> I</c><00:28:36.480><c> hope</c><00:28:36.579><c> he</c><00:28:36.759><c> said</c><00:28:36.859><c> he</c><00:28:37.039><c> loved</c><00:28:37.259><c> her.</c>

00:28:37.539 --> 00:28:39.400

00:31:24.220 --> 00:31:25.779
And<00:31:24.660><c> somebody</c><00:31:25.019><c> set</c><00:31:25.539><c> it</c><00:31:25.680><c> off.</c>

00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:27.680
You<00:31:25.900><c> know,</c><00:31:25.980><c> they</c><00:31:26.019><c> go,</c><00:31:26.339><c> ee,</c><00:31:27.339><c> like</c><00:31:27.559><c> that.</c>

00:31:27.759 --> 00:31:29.119
Just<00:31:27.960><c> guys,</c><00:31:28.240><c> you're</c><00:31:28.299><c> crazy.</c>

00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:34.680
And<00:31:30.160><c> so</c><00:31:30.599><c> he</c><00:31:31.140><c> gets</c><00:31:31.319><c> on</c><00:31:31.519><c> a</c><00:31:31.759><c> chair</c><00:31:32.339><c> to</c><00:31:33.259><c> get</c><00:31:33.460><c> it</c><00:31:33.759><c> off.</c>

00:31:34.859 --> 00:31:36.680
And<00:31:34.859><c> he's</c><00:31:35.539><c> not</c><00:31:35.819><c> too</c><00:31:36.319><c> nimble.</c>

00:31:36.720 --> 00:31:37.480
And<00:31:36.819><c> he's</c><00:31:37.059><c> working</c><00:31:37.240><c> it.</c>

00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:38.900
And<00:31:37.740><c> she</c><00:31:37.900><c> says,</c><00:31:38.440><c> hurry</c><00:31:38.720><c> up.</c>

00:31:38.940 --> 00:31:39.960
He<00:31:39.000><c> says,</c><00:31:39.259><c> I</c><00:31:39.420><c> am</c><00:31:39.640><c> hurrying.</c>

00:31:40.339 --> 00:31:41.700
And<00:31:40.559><c> they're</c><00:31:40.839><c> yelling</c><00:31:41.059><c> at</c><00:31:41.180><c> each</c><00:31:41.380><c> other.</c>

00:31:42.200 --> 00:31:45.420
Finally,<00:31:43.299><c> just</c><00:31:43.480><c> this</c><00:31:43.740><c> noise</c><00:31:44.079><c> would</c><00:31:44.640><c> grate</c><00:31:44.819><c> your</c><00:31:45.079><c> nerves.</c>

00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:47.380
Finally,<00:31:46.319><c> he</c><00:31:46.500><c> gets</c><00:31:46.720><c> it</c><00:31:47.019><c> off.</c>

00:31:47.799 --> 00:31:49.279
And<00:31:48.019><c> he</c><00:31:48.180><c> gets</c><00:31:48.319><c> down</c><00:31:48.559><c> off</c><00:31:48.799><c> the</c><00:31:49.019><c> stair.</c>

00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:50.480
And<00:31:49.779><c> they</c><00:31:49.920><c> look</c><00:31:50.079><c> at</c><00:31:50.180><c> each</c><00:31:50.339><c> other.</c>

00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:52.480
And<00:31:50.619><c> they</c><00:31:50.819><c> both</c><00:31:51.039><c> start</c><00:31:51.319><c> saying</c><00:31:51.440><c> together,</c><00:31:51.859><c> I</c><00:31:52.039><c> was</c><00:31:52.299><c> wrong.</c>

00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:52.920
I'm<00:31:52.759><c> sorry.</c>

00:31:52.920 --> 00:31:53.660
Please<00:31:53.180><c> forgive</c><00:31:53.460><c> me.</c>

00:31:53.700 --> 00:31:55.039
I<00:31:53.700><c> love</c><00:31:54.059><c> you.</c>

00:31:55.619 --> 00:31:59.440
And<00:31:55.759><c> so</c><00:31:55.920><c> they</c><00:31:56.839><c> had</c><00:31:57.000><c> to</c><00:31:57.220><c> share</c><00:31:57.359><c> that</c><00:31:57.619><c> story</c><00:31:57.900><c> with</c><00:31:58.180><c> me</c><00:31:58.779><c> about</c><00:31:59.160><c> two</c>

00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:00.740
days<00:31:59.720><c> later.</c>

00:32:01.339 --> 00:32:03.099
But<00:32:01.619><c> it</c><00:32:01.839><c> works.</c>

00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:08.180
But<00:32:04.559><c> it</c><00:32:04.680><c> doesn't</c><00:32:04.920><c> work</c><00:32:06.039><c> if</c><00:32:06.480><c> you</c><00:32:06.599><c> don't</c><00:32:06.799><c> work</c><00:32:07.059><c> it.</c>

00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:17.380
And<00:32:09.619><c> so</c><00:32:10.119><c> let's</c><00:32:10.980><c> decide</c><00:32:11.400><c> that</c><00:32:11.599><c> we</c><00:32:11.799><c> are</c><00:32:11.960><c> going</c><00:32:12.480><c> to</c><00:32:13.200><c> be</c><00:32:13.539><c> slow</c><00:32:14.700><c> to</c><00:32:16.220><c> speak,</c>

00:32:22.960 --> 00:32:25.819
Coming<00:32:23.140><c> on</c><00:32:23.299><c> down</c><00:32:23.460><c> to</c><00:32:23.599><c> James</c><00:32:23.920><c> chapter</c><00:32:24.440><c> 1,</c><00:32:25.180><c> verse</c><00:32:25.400><c> 22.</c>

But<00:32:26.079><c> be</c><00:32:26.460><c> doers</c><00:32:26.940><c> of</c><00:32:27.160><c> the</c><00:32:27.319><c> word</c><00:32:27.559><c> and</c><00:32:27.759><c> not</c><00:32:28.000><c> hearers</c><00:32:28.319><c> only,</c>

perceiving<00:32:30.359><c> yourselves.</c>

00:32:31.640 --> 00:32:33.900
For<00:32:31.799><c> if</c><00:32:32.000><c> anyone</c><00:32:32.220><c> is</c><00:32:32.480><c> a</c><00:32:32.640><c> hearer</c><00:32:32.900><c> of</c><00:32:32.960><c> the</c><00:32:33.079><c> word</c><00:32:33.180><c> and</c><00:32:33.339><c> not</c><00:32:33.539><c> a</c><00:32:33.680><c> doer,</c>

00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:41.039
For<00:32:38.039><c> he</c><00:32:38.259><c> observes</c><00:32:38.920><c> himself,</c><00:32:39.980><c> goes</c><00:32:40.299><c> away,</c><00:32:40.700><c> and</c><00:32:40.819><c> immediately</c>

00:32:46.119 --> 00:32:48.599
But<00:32:46.559><c> he</c><00:32:46.779><c> who</c><00:32:46.839><c> looks</c><00:32:47.019><c> into</c><00:32:47.259><c> the</c><00:32:47.420><c> perfect</c><00:32:47.759><c> law</c><00:32:48.099><c> of</c><00:32:48.339><c> liberty</c>

never<00:33:00.619><c> do.</c>

00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:05.319
In<00:33:02.559><c> fact,</c><00:33:03.259><c> colleges</c><00:33:03.380><c> are</c><00:33:03.579><c> famous</c><00:33:03.880><c> for</c><00:33:04.539><c> graduating</c><00:33:04.980><c> a</c><00:33:05.180><c> bunch</c>

00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:13.940
But<00:33:10.160><c> we're</c><00:33:10.380><c> talking</c><00:33:10.640><c> here</c><00:33:10.839><c> about</c><00:33:11.980><c> spiritual</c><00:33:13.119><c> application</c>

00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:21.500

00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:48.320
