00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:30.639
every<00:02:30.039><c> time</c><00:02:30.240><c> there</c><00:02:30.379><c> was</c>

00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:33.900
a<00:02:30.860><c> reciprocating</c><00:02:31.539><c> expectation,</c><00:02:32.719><c> it</c><00:02:32.960><c> must</c><00:02:33.199><c> be</c><00:02:33.460><c> human</c><00:02:33.639><c> love.</c>

00:02:33.900 --> 00:02:38.060
We<00:02:34.039><c> want</c><00:02:34.199><c> to</c><00:02:34.439><c> clarify</c><00:02:34.819><c> that</c><00:02:36.500><c> situation.</c>

00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:42.360
God<00:02:38.460><c> rightfully</c><00:02:39.020><c> has</c><00:02:39.479><c> an</c><00:02:39.740><c> expectation</c><00:02:40.340><c> from</c><00:02:40.639><c> us</c><00:02:41.539><c> out</c><00:02:42.060><c> of</c><00:02:42.199><c> the</c>

00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.659
We're<00:02:44.379><c> going</c><00:02:44.479><c> to</c><00:02:44.599><c> look</c><00:02:44.699><c> at</c><00:02:44.800><c> a</c><00:02:44.919><c> couple</c><00:02:45.080><c> more</c><00:02:45.419><c> characters</c><00:02:45.939><c> very</c>

00:02:46.659 --> 00:02:47.840
briefly<00:02:47.060><c> in</c><00:02:47.240><c> this</c><00:02:47.439><c> afternoon</c>

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:53.560
session<00:02:48.199><c> before</c><00:02:49.219><c> turning</c><00:02:49.699><c> our</c><00:02:50.000><c> attention</c><00:02:50.439><c> to</c><00:02:52.199><c> 1</c><00:02:52.439><c> Corinthians</c><00:02:52.800><c> 13.</c>

00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.000
Again,<00:02:54.199><c> just</c><00:02:54.439><c> to</c><00:02:54.680><c> reinforce</c><00:02:55.219><c> this</c><00:02:55.759><c> ability,</c><00:02:56.340><c> hopefully</c><00:02:56.719><c> this</c>

00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:58.580
new<00:02:57.240><c> found</c><00:02:57.539><c> skill,</c>

00:02:58.659 --> 00:03:01.860
to<00:02:58.819><c> identify</c><00:02:59.280><c> what</c><00:02:59.580><c> godly</c><00:02:59.919><c> love</c><00:03:00.099><c> looks</c><00:03:00.419><c> like</c><00:03:00.740><c> in</c><00:03:00.979><c> the</c><00:03:01.180><c> life</c><00:03:01.520><c> of</c>

00:03:01.860 --> 00:03:03.379
faithful<00:03:02.219><c> men</c><00:03:02.460><c> and</c><00:03:02.620><c> women.</c>

00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.479
And<00:03:03.680><c> if</c><00:03:03.800><c> you</c><00:03:04.159><c> recall</c><00:03:04.479><c> the</c><00:03:04.680><c> incident</c><00:03:04.960><c> of</c><00:03:05.219><c> Joseph,</c>

00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:07.599
you<00:03:05.639><c> don't</c><00:03:05.860><c> necessarily</c><00:03:06.379><c> have</c><00:03:06.599><c> to</c><00:03:06.780><c> turn</c><00:03:06.919><c> up</c><00:03:07.080><c> his</c><00:03:07.360><c> life.</c>

00:03:07.699 --> 00:03:11.560
But<00:03:07.840><c> just</c><00:03:08.039><c> now</c><00:03:08.280><c> think</c><00:03:08.560><c> through</c><00:03:09.500><c> those</c><00:03:10.139><c> incredible</c><00:03:10.879><c> events</c><00:03:11.319><c> in</c>

00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:13.099
Genesis<00:03:11.960><c> 37,</c>

00:03:13.379 --> 00:03:17.479
because<00:03:13.719><c> here</c><00:03:13.960><c> is</c><00:03:14.159><c> a</c><00:03:14.620><c> young</c><00:03:14.819><c> man</c><00:03:15.159><c> at</c><00:03:15.379><c> a</c><00:03:15.520><c> very</c><00:03:15.960><c> early</c><00:03:16.340><c> age.</c>

00:03:17.659 --> 00:03:21.259
So<00:03:17.860><c> if</c><00:03:17.939><c> there</c><00:03:18.120><c> are</c><00:03:18.180><c> any</c><00:03:18.360><c> young</c><00:03:18.539><c> people</c><00:03:18.860><c> here</c><00:03:19.159><c> this</c><00:03:20.080><c> this</c><00:03:20.099><c> afternoon,</c>

00:03:21.419 --> 00:03:26.539
Joseph<00:03:21.860><c> is</c><00:03:22.319><c> only</c><00:03:22.800><c> 17</c><00:03:23.639><c> when</c><00:03:25.000><c> he</c><00:03:25.159><c> isn't</c><00:03:25.360><c> just</c><00:03:25.780><c> learning</c><00:03:26.099><c> about</c>

godly<00:03:26.939><c> love.</c>

00:03:27.099 --> 00:03:31.139
He<00:03:27.240><c> is</c><00:03:27.520><c> already</c><00:03:27.919><c> manifesting</c><00:03:28.580><c> godly</c><00:03:29.060><c> love</c><00:03:29.340><c> at</c><00:03:29.560><c> a</c><00:03:29.740><c> very</c><00:03:30.020><c> high</c><00:03:30.259><c> level.</c>

00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:35.379
We<00:03:31.620><c> know</c><00:03:31.860><c> from</c><00:03:32.080><c> the</c><00:03:32.240><c> events</c><00:03:32.439><c> of</c><00:03:32.639><c> Genesis</c><00:03:32.939><c> 37</c><00:03:33.560><c> that</c><00:03:33.780><c> his</c><00:03:34.039><c> brethren</c><00:03:34.280><c> hate</c><00:03:34.580><c> him.</c>

00:03:36.780 --> 00:03:39.259
Jacob<00:03:37.060><c> then</c><00:03:37.300><c> makes</c><00:03:37.520><c> a</c><00:03:37.780><c> special</c><00:03:38.080><c> code</c><00:03:38.379><c> form</c><00:03:38.639><c> to</c><00:03:38.879><c> acknowledge</c>

00:03:40.460 --> 00:03:44.979
because<00:03:40.680><c> Jacob</c><00:03:41.120><c> can</c><00:03:41.500><c> see</c><00:03:41.780><c> the</c><00:03:42.159><c> spirituality</c><00:03:42.699><c> of</c><00:03:42.979><c> his</c><00:03:43.719><c> young</c><00:03:44.080><c> son.</c>

00:03:49.659 --> 00:03:54.539
God<00:03:49.919><c> then</c><00:03:50.479><c> gives</c><00:03:50.699><c> him</c><00:03:50.900><c> a</c><00:03:51.120><c> dream</c><00:03:51.340><c> which</c><00:03:51.800><c> reinforces</c><00:03:53.580><c> Jacob's</c>

00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:05.639
God<00:04:02.419><c> then</c><00:04:02.719><c> gives</c><00:04:02.960><c> Joseph</c><00:04:03.379><c> a</c><00:04:03.900><c> second</c><00:04:04.280><c> dream</c><00:04:04.719><c> to</c><00:04:04.960><c> underscore</c>

the<00:04:06.039><c> certainty</c>

00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:10.939
of<00:04:07.659><c> Joseph</c><00:04:08.039><c> being</c><00:04:08.319><c> the</c><00:04:08.680><c> spiritual</c><00:04:09.120><c> leader</c><00:04:09.400><c> of</c><00:04:09.659><c> this</c><00:04:09.919><c> family.</c>

even<00:04:15.199><c> further.</c>

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:19.620
So<00:04:16.360><c> life</c><00:04:16.519><c> would</c><00:04:16.720><c> have</c><00:04:16.879><c> been</c><00:04:17.060><c> miserable</c><00:04:17.540><c> for</c><00:04:17.839><c> Joseph</c><00:04:18.240><c> in</c><00:04:18.480><c> that</c><00:04:18.639><c> household.</c>

00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:24.899
Surrounded<00:04:21.000><c> by</c><00:04:21.600><c> brethren,</c><00:04:22.399><c> older</c><00:04:22.680><c> brethren,</c><00:04:24.060><c> whose</c><00:04:24.279><c> hatred</c>

was<00:04:25.339><c> obvious.</c>

00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:40.540
And<00:04:37.019><c> they</c><00:04:37.120><c> didn't</c><00:04:37.300><c> just</c><00:04:37.579><c> hate</c><00:04:37.819><c> Joseph,</c><00:04:38.480><c> they</c><00:04:38.720><c> hated</c><00:04:39.100><c> God's</c><00:04:39.740><c> word.</c>

00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:43.360
So<00:04:40.860><c> when</c><00:04:41.060><c> God's</c><00:04:41.500><c> word</c><00:04:41.639><c> came</c><00:04:41.920><c> in</c><00:04:42.079><c> the</c><00:04:42.279><c> form</c><00:04:42.459><c> of</c><00:04:42.720><c> these</c><00:04:42.959><c> dreams,</c>

they<00:04:43.779><c> hated</c><00:04:44.040><c> the</c><00:04:44.300><c> dreams.</c>

00:04:45.860 --> 00:04:49.339
And<00:04:46.160><c> they</c><00:04:46.360><c> hated</c><00:04:46.620><c> God</c><00:04:47.040><c> and</c><00:04:47.259><c> they</c><00:04:47.740><c> despised</c><00:04:48.139><c> the</c><00:04:48.439><c> promises.</c>

00:04:50.060 --> 00:04:55.100
So<00:04:50.360><c> how</c><00:04:50.540><c> does</c><00:04:51.120><c> godly</c><00:04:51.560><c> love</c><00:04:51.939><c> react</c><00:04:52.759><c> to</c><00:04:53.860><c> that</c><00:04:54.160><c> kind</c><00:04:54.339><c> of</c><00:04:54.480><c> a</c><00:04:54.740><c> situation?</c>
