This<00:06:10.120><c> man</c><00:06:10.379><c> shall</c><00:06:10.579><c> be</c><00:06:10.800><c> blessed</c><00:06:11.139><c> in</c><00:06:11.600><c> his</c><00:06:11.879><c> doing.</c>

00:06:13.019 --> 00:06:19.100
Now,<00:06:14.439><c> brothers</c><00:06:14.439><c> and</c><00:06:14.660><c> sisters,</c><00:06:16.100><c> we</c><00:06:16.199><c> looked</c><00:06:16.519><c> earlier</c><00:06:16.939><c> at</c><00:06:17.199><c> a</c><00:06:17.439><c> passage</c><00:06:17.819><c> that</c><00:06:18.220><c> talked</c><00:06:18.480><c> about</c><00:06:18.819><c> the</c>

00:06:19.100 --> 00:06:22.660
fact<00:06:19.399><c> that</c><00:06:19.899><c> the</c><00:06:20.060><c> word</c><00:06:20.240><c> of</c><00:06:20.480><c> God</c><00:06:20.660><c> is</c><00:06:20.980><c> saving</c><00:06:21.300><c> our</c><00:06:21.699><c> lives.</c>

00:06:23.100 --> 00:06:25.420
It's<00:06:23.240><c> something</c><00:06:23.480><c> that</c><00:06:23.639><c> we</c><00:06:23.740><c> have</c><00:06:23.899><c> to</c><00:06:24.019><c> be</c><00:06:24.199><c> listening</c><00:06:24.459><c> to.</c>

00:06:25.459 --> 00:06:30.279
That's<00:06:25.639><c> what</c><00:06:25.740><c> we</c><00:06:25.879><c> were</c><00:06:25.980><c> told.</c><00:06:26.480><c> It</c><00:06:26.759><c> is</c><00:06:27.959><c> able</c><00:06:28.439><c> to</c><00:06:28.759><c> save</c><00:06:28.939><c> our</c><00:06:29.360><c> souls.</c>

00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.660
So<00:06:30.939><c> somehow</c><00:06:31.139><c> it</c><00:06:31.339><c> molds</c><00:06:31.620><c> and</c><00:06:31.819><c> shapes</c><00:06:32.100><c> us</c><00:06:32.439><c> inside</c><00:06:33.040><c> and</c><00:06:34.740><c> grows</c><00:06:35.420><c> us</c>

00:06:35.660 --> 00:06:39.279
and<00:06:35.839><c> matures</c><00:06:36.240><c> us</c><00:06:37.300><c> towards</c><00:06:37.740><c> the</c><00:06:38.019><c> saving</c><00:06:38.240><c> of</c><00:06:38.519><c> our</c><00:06:38.720><c> souls</c><00:06:38.939><c> at</c><00:06:39.100><c> the</c>

00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:41.720
return<00:06:39.779><c> of</c><00:06:40.720><c> the</c><00:06:40.879><c> Son</c><00:06:41.040><c> of</c><00:06:41.300><c> God.</c>

00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:43.980
When<00:06:42.199><c> the</c><00:06:42.399><c> kingdom</c><00:06:42.560><c> is</c><00:06:42.879><c> established.</c>

00:06:44.579 --> 00:06:47.839
What<00:06:44.740><c> this</c><00:06:45.000><c> must</c><00:06:45.220><c> mean</c><00:06:45.500><c> is</c><00:06:45.720><c> that</c><00:06:46.199><c> we</c><00:06:46.480><c> have</c><00:06:46.720><c> to</c><00:06:46.860><c> be</c><00:06:47.180><c> responding</c>

00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:51.319
to<00:06:48.920><c> what</c><00:06:49.100><c> is</c><00:06:49.259><c> in</c><00:06:49.379><c> the</c><00:06:49.500><c> word</c><00:06:49.620><c> of</c><00:06:49.879><c> God.</c>

00:06:51.819 --> 00:06:56.120
Inside<00:06:52.339><c> of</c><00:06:52.620><c> ourselves</c><00:06:53.060><c> there's</c><00:06:53.779><c> a</c><00:06:54.120><c> change</c><00:06:54.720><c> that</c><00:06:55.620><c> must</c><00:06:55.879><c> be</c>

00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:59.019
perpetually<00:06:56.839><c> taking</c><00:06:57.220><c> place,</c><00:06:58.439><c> unceasing.</c>

00:06:59.420 --> 00:07:03.040
Never<00:06:59.660><c> stops.</c><00:07:00.800><c> It's</c><00:07:01.040><c> never</c><00:07:01.240><c> easy.</c><00:07:01.600><c> It's</c><00:07:01.680><c> never</c><00:07:01.939><c> comfortable.</c>

00:07:03.339 --> 00:07:05.199
But<00:07:03.540><c> it's</c><00:07:03.839><c> never</c><00:07:04.100><c> ceasing.</c>

00:07:05.740 --> 00:07:12.000
Be<00:07:06.540><c> ye</c><00:07:07.060><c> doers</c><00:07:07.720><c> of</c><00:07:07.899><c> the</c><00:07:08.100><c> word,</c><00:07:08.500><c> and</c><00:07:08.759><c> not</c><00:07:09.100><c> hearers</c><00:07:09.779><c> only,</c><00:07:11.360><c> deceiving</c><00:07:11.779><c> your</c>

own<00:07:12.279><c> selves.</c>

00:07:14.379 --> 00:07:18.959
So<00:07:14.660><c> the</c><00:07:14.819><c> brethren</c><00:07:15.180><c> that</c><00:07:15.699><c> were</c><00:07:16.019><c> around</c><00:07:16.540><c> in</c><00:07:16.839><c> the</c><00:07:17.040><c> ecclesias</c><00:07:17.980><c> to</c>

00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:25.920
which<00:07:19.220><c> James</c><00:07:19.699><c> was</c><00:07:19.959><c> writing,</c><00:07:21.879><c> heard,</c><00:07:23.540><c> but</c><00:07:23.699><c> didn't</c><00:07:24.079><c> do,</c><00:07:25.740><c> and</c>

00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:27.819

00:07:28.300 --> 00:07:32.379
Now<00:07:28.779><c> we</c><00:07:28.879><c> may</c><00:07:29.060><c> look</c><00:07:29.279><c> at</c><00:07:29.379><c> each</c><00:07:29.579><c> other</c><00:07:29.819><c> and</c><00:07:29.959><c> say,</c><00:07:30.240><c> yes,</c><00:07:31.040><c> my</c><00:07:31.279><c> husband</c><00:07:31.860><c> isn't</c>

00:07:32.379 --> 00:07:34.199

00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:39.740
He<00:07:35.439><c> hears</c><00:07:35.759><c> it,</c><00:07:37.259><c> and</c><00:07:37.819><c> he's</c><00:07:38.079><c> trying</c><00:07:38.220><c> to</c><00:07:38.360><c> get</c><00:07:38.480><c> me</c><00:07:38.759><c> to</c><00:07:38.899><c> do</c><00:07:39.040><c> it,</c><00:07:39.579><c> but</c>

00:07:39.740 --> 00:07:41.339
he's<00:07:39.980><c> not</c><00:07:40.139><c> a</c><00:07:40.279><c> doer.</c>

00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:47.519
He's<00:07:42.240><c> quick</c><00:07:42.379><c> to</c><00:07:42.560><c> quote</c><00:07:42.720><c> passages</c><00:07:43.139><c> to</c><00:07:43.379><c> me</c><00:07:43.540><c> about,</c><00:07:44.459><c> well,</c><00:07:45.040><c> I'm</c><00:07:45.379><c> not</c><00:07:45.600><c> submissive</c><00:07:46.139><c> enough</c><00:07:46.360><c> as</c><00:07:46.540><c> a</c><00:07:46.680><c> wife.</c>

00:07:47.740 --> 00:07:50.519
But<00:07:48.120><c> I'm</c><00:07:48.319><c> waiting</c><00:07:48.600><c> for</c><00:07:48.779><c> him</c><00:07:48.939><c> to</c><00:07:49.060><c> be</c><00:07:49.180><c> more</c><00:07:49.519><c> spiritual</c><00:07:49.920><c> minded</c><00:07:50.240><c> so</c><00:07:50.399><c> I</c>

00:07:53.100 --> 00:07:57.540
Until<00:07:53.540><c> then,</c><00:07:54.920><c> well,</c><00:07:55.199><c> we'll</c><00:07:55.360><c> just</c><00:07:55.560><c> do</c><00:07:55.699><c> it</c><00:07:55.819><c> the</c><00:07:55.899><c> way</c><00:07:56.040><c> it</c><00:07:56.100><c> is</c><00:07:56.300><c> done</c><00:07:56.480><c> now.</c>

00:07:58.379 --> 00:08:02.000
And<00:07:58.620><c> a</c><00:07:58.779><c> husband</c><00:07:58.980><c> might</c><00:07:59.319><c> think</c><00:08:00.220><c> the</c><00:08:00.819><c> same</c><00:08:01.079><c> thing</c><00:08:01.339><c> and</c><00:08:01.519><c> say</c><00:08:01.779><c> the</c>

In<00:08:05.660><c> other</c><00:08:05.819><c> words,</c><00:08:05.939><c> we</c><00:08:06.040><c> can</c><00:08:06.199><c> look</c><00:08:06.379><c> at</c><00:08:06.480><c> the</c><00:08:06.699><c> other</c><00:08:06.959><c> person,</c><00:08:07.500><c> whoever</c><00:08:07.720><c> it</c>

00:22:58.000 --> 00:23:01.019
Therefore<00:22:58.359><c> it</c><00:22:58.460><c> has</c><00:22:58.740><c> the</c><00:22:58.920><c> implied</c><00:22:59.200><c> meaning</c><00:23:00.079><c> that</c><00:23:00.279><c> this</c><00:23:00.480><c> is</c><00:23:00.660><c> with</c><00:23:00.839><c> a</c>

00:24:31.140 --> 00:24:34.380
That's<00:24:31.460><c> in</c><00:24:31.579><c> the</c><00:24:31.640><c> giving</c><00:24:31.819><c> of</c><00:24:32.420><c> the</c><00:24:32.720><c> Son,</c><00:24:33.079><c> of</c><00:24:33.240><c> the</c><00:24:33.380><c> Messiah.</c>

00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:49.759
They<00:27:46.160><c> could</c><00:27:46.420><c> tell</c><00:27:46.720><c> as</c><00:27:46.900><c> she</c><00:27:47.039><c> was</c><00:27:47.299><c> cooking</c><00:27:47.519><c> it,</c><00:27:48.559><c> this</c><00:27:48.920><c> luxury</c><00:27:49.500><c> of</c>

Tremendous<00:27:54.200><c> luxury.</c>

00:27:56.039 --> 00:27:56.740
But<00:27:56.140><c> what</c><00:27:56.279><c> would</c><00:27:56.440><c> you</c><00:27:56.619><c> do?</c>

00:27:56.779 --> 00:27:58.640

They<00:28:01.700><c> ate</c><00:28:01.940><c> it</c><00:28:02.339><c> because</c><00:28:03.380><c> they</c><00:28:03.599><c> knew</c><00:28:03.720><c> what</c><00:28:03.880><c> it</c><00:28:04.000><c> meant</c><00:28:04.140><c> to</c><00:28:04.339><c> her.</c>

00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:12.480
Right?

00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:17.279
That<00:31:13.160><c> was</c><00:31:14.059><c> so</c><00:31:14.420><c> natural</c><00:31:15.119><c> and</c><00:31:15.680><c> basic</c><00:31:16.119><c> to</c><00:31:16.359><c> them.</c>

00:31:29.400 --> 00:31:34.319
It<00:31:30.660><c> means</c><00:31:31.359><c> to</c><00:31:31.779><c> be</c><00:31:31.960><c> divided</c><00:31:32.519><c> against</c><00:31:33.059><c> oneself.</c>

And<00:31:37.460><c> the</c><00:31:37.640><c> sense</c><00:31:37.859><c> is</c><00:31:38.039><c> to</c><00:31:38.240><c> show</c><00:31:38.740><c> favoritism,</c><00:31:40.099><c> to</c><00:31:40.279><c> make</c><00:31:40.500><c> differences</c><00:31:40.960><c> between</c><00:31:41.339><c> people.</c>

00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:50.640
Now,<00:31:45.440><c> brothers</c><00:31:45.500><c> and</c><00:31:45.759><c> sisters,</c><00:31:47.220><c> we</c><00:31:47.500><c> can</c><00:31:47.920><c> equally</c><00:31:48.579><c> discriminate</c><00:31:49.339><c> against</c><00:31:49.880><c> the</c><00:31:50.160><c> rich</c>

00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:55.240
You<00:31:54.380><c> can</c><00:31:54.440><c> go</c><00:31:54.539><c> the</c><00:31:54.640><c> other</c><00:31:54.819><c> direction.</c>

00:31:55.240 --> 00:31:59.279

00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:02.339
Right?

00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:04.839
Isn't<00:32:02.920><c> that</c><00:32:03.160><c> something</c><00:32:03.420><c> that</c><00:32:03.640><c> sometimes</c><00:32:03.960><c> we</c><00:32:04.259><c> cherish</c><00:32:04.539><c> as</c><00:32:04.740><c> a</c>

00:32:07.579 --> 00:32:08.960
It's<00:32:07.740><c> not</c><00:32:07.880><c> the</c><00:32:08.039><c> case.</c>

00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:12.059
And<00:32:09.720><c> we've</c><00:32:10.059><c> got</c><00:32:10.140><c> to</c><00:32:10.240><c> be</c><00:32:10.400><c> careful</c><00:32:10.579><c> that</c><00:32:10.720><c> we</c><00:32:10.799><c> don't</c><00:32:11.099><c> discriminate</c><00:32:11.660><c> against</c>

No<00:32:21.500><c> problems.</c>

00:32:21.980 --> 00:32:25.099
That's<00:32:23.000><c> a</c><00:32:23.079><c> hard</c><00:32:23.339><c> one,</c><00:32:23.559><c> isn't</c><00:32:23.779><c> it?</c>

00:32:32.380 --> 00:32:34.539
It<00:32:32.559><c> must</c><00:32:32.940><c> be</c><00:32:33.180><c> something</c><00:32:33.440><c> that's</c><00:32:33.720><c> common</c><00:32:33.839><c> to</c><00:32:34.039><c> us</c><00:32:34.200><c> all.</c>

00:32:34.980 --> 00:32:38.660
No,<00:32:35.240><c> that's</c><00:32:35.579><c> a</c><00:32:35.680><c> little</c><00:32:35.839><c> bit</c><00:32:36.079><c> too</c><00:32:36.380><c> vile</c><00:32:36.619><c> for</c><00:32:36.799><c> me</c><00:32:37.039><c> to</c><00:32:37.500><c> handle</c><00:32:37.880><c> that.</c>

00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:42.500
Right?

00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:45.960
So<00:32:43.339><c> this</c><00:32:43.619><c> discrimination,</c><00:32:44.259><c> this</c><00:32:44.400><c> making</c><00:32:44.619><c> of</c><00:32:44.980><c> differences,</c>

00:32:46.900 --> 00:32:51.640
keeps<00:32:47.420><c> us</c><00:32:47.940><c> alive</c><00:32:48.359><c> in</c><00:32:48.599><c> ourselves</c><00:32:49.140><c> the</c><00:32:49.940><c> illusion</c><00:32:50.559><c> that</c><00:32:51.359><c> we're</c>

better<00:32:51.980><c> than</c><00:32:52.240><c> some</c><00:32:52.500><c> people.</c>

00:32:53.079 --> 00:32:53.920
And<00:32:53.359><c> we're</c><00:32:53.519><c> not.</c>

00:32:54.200 --> 00:32:56.279
We're<00:32:54.359><c> not</c><00:32:54.559><c> better</c><00:32:54.740><c> than</c><00:32:54.960><c> anyone</c><00:32:55.200><c> else.</c>

00:32:56.940 --> 00:32:59.059
No<00:32:57.140><c> one's</c><00:32:57.359><c> better</c><00:32:57.619><c> than</c><00:32:57.859><c> anyone</c><00:32:58.079><c> else.</c>

00:32:59.740 --> 00:33:00.480
We're<00:32:59.980><c> all</c><00:33:00.240><c> equal.</c>

00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:03.839
This<00:33:00.700><c> is</c><00:33:00.859><c> the</c><00:33:00.940><c> wonderful</c><00:33:01.240><c> thing</c><00:33:01.480><c> about</c><00:33:01.819><c> grace</c><00:33:02.480><c> in</c><00:33:02.819><c> the</c><00:33:03.000><c> truth.</c>

00:33:04.339 --> 00:33:07.420
In<00:33:04.400><c> God's</c><00:33:04.859><c> eyes,</c><00:33:06.039><c> we're</c><00:33:06.279><c> all</c><00:33:06.480><c> equal.</c>

00:33:07.940 --> 00:33:10.420

00:33:10.420 --> 00:33:16.359
And<00:33:10.420><c> so</c><00:33:10.759><c> it</c><00:33:11.680><c> must</c><00:33:12.039><c> have</c><00:33:12.220><c> been</c><00:33:12.480><c> hard</c><00:33:13.200><c> for</c><00:33:14.279><c> a</c><00:33:14.519><c> rich</c><00:33:14.819><c> Jewish</c><00:33:15.240><c> master</c>

00:33:22.420 --> 00:33:24.240
That<00:33:22.680><c> must</c><00:33:22.900><c> have</c><00:33:23.019><c> been</c><00:33:23.160><c> hard.</c>

presiding<00:33:37.940><c> brother.</c>

00:33:38.220 --> 00:33:39.400

00:33:39.400 --> 00:33:43.180
There<00:33:39.740><c> would</c><00:33:39.900><c> have</c><00:33:40.039><c> been</c><00:33:40.140><c> something</c><00:33:40.380><c> that</c><00:33:40.660><c> felt</c><00:33:41.579><c> inappropriate</c><00:33:42.380><c> about</c><00:33:42.740><c> that.</c>

00:33:43.400 --> 00:33:46.339

00:33:46.859 --> 00:33:47.660
Right?

00:33:48.900 --> 00:33:54.079
So<00:33:49.380><c> this</c><00:33:49.859><c> is</c><00:33:50.119><c> the</c><00:33:50.299><c> kind</c><00:33:50.599><c> of</c><00:33:51.859><c> social</c><00:33:52.220><c> reality</c><00:33:52.980><c> that</c><00:33:53.640><c> was</c><00:33:53.839><c> taking</c>

00:33:54.900 --> 00:33:57.680
So<00:33:55.079><c> it</c><00:33:55.220><c> must</c><00:33:55.420><c> be</c><00:33:55.660><c> hard</c><00:33:55.880><c> sometimes</c><00:33:56.460><c> for</c><00:33:56.819><c> us</c><00:33:56.980><c> to</c><00:33:57.099><c> see</c><00:33:57.220><c> a</c><00:33:57.500><c> brother</c>

00:34:15.139 --> 00:34:17.860

She's<00:34:20.059><c> insulting.</c>

00:34:25.500 --> 00:34:26.519
Right?

00:34:27.219 --> 00:34:29.059
And<00:34:27.400><c> you</c><00:34:27.699><c> can't</c><00:34:28.119><c> abide</c><00:34:28.300><c> her</c><00:34:28.559><c> company.</c>

00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:54.659
It's<00:34:53.079><c> not</c><00:34:53.280><c> always</c><00:34:53.559><c> easy.</c>

00:34:55.739 --> 00:34:57.199
You<00:34:56.000><c> can't</c><00:34:56.320><c> choose</c><00:34:56.480><c> your</c><00:34:56.780><c> relatives.</c>

00:37:26.280 --> 00:37:27.179
Right?

00:37:28.199 --> 00:37:30.000
So<00:37:28.380><c> he</c><00:37:28.400><c> goes</c><00:37:28.639><c> through</c><00:37:28.800><c> and</c><00:37:28.900><c> he</c><00:37:29.039><c> says,</c>

You<00:37:38.599><c> will</c><00:37:38.800><c> receive</c><00:37:39.159><c> condemnation</c><00:37:39.920><c> at</c><00:37:40.099><c> the</c><00:37:40.260><c> judgment</c><00:37:40.500><c> seat.</c>

00:37:41.579 --> 00:37:42.260
It's<00:37:41.780><c> what</c><00:37:41.780><c> he</c><00:37:41.780><c> says</c><00:37:41.920><c> to</c><00:37:42.139><c> me.</c>

We<00:37:49.099><c> are</c><00:37:49.239><c> to</c><00:37:49.460><c> extend</c><00:37:50.179><c> mercy,</c><00:37:51.559><c> kindness,</c>

00:37:53.539 --> 00:37:56.340
kindness<00:37:54.000><c> and</c><00:37:54.420><c> acceptance</c><00:37:54.820><c> of</c><00:37:55.000><c> other</c><00:37:55.159><c> people.</c>

00:37:56.679 --> 00:37:59.199
Mercy<00:37:57.019><c> rejoices</c><00:37:57.719><c> against</c><00:37:58.199><c> judgment.</c>

00:37:59.860 --> 00:38:03.320
Then<00:37:59.960><c> he</c><00:38:00.079><c> says</c><00:38:00.900><c> about</c><00:38:01.880><c> faith</c><00:38:02.139><c> and</c><00:38:02.380><c> works.</c>

00:38:03.900 --> 00:38:05.559
What<00:38:04.199><c> doth</c><00:38:04.440><c> it</c><00:38:04.739><c> profit,</c><00:38:05.000><c> my</c><00:38:05.260><c> brethren,</c>

00:38:05.559 --> 00:38:07.920
though<00:38:05.980><c> a</c><00:38:06.099><c> man</c><00:38:06.260><c> say</c><00:38:06.480><c> he</c><00:38:06.639><c> hath</c><00:38:06.800><c> faith</c><00:38:07.039><c> and</c><00:38:07.199><c> have</c><00:38:07.360><c> not</c><00:38:07.559><c> works?</c>

00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:09.920
Now,<00:38:09.000><c> I</c><00:38:09.260><c> think</c><00:38:09.420><c> of</c><00:38:09.519><c> the</c><00:38:09.639><c> Brotherhood,</c>

00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:11.280
this<00:38:10.079><c> is</c><00:38:10.280><c> not</c><00:38:10.420><c> so</c><00:38:10.559><c> much</c><00:38:10.699><c> a</c><00:38:10.940><c> problem,</c>

00:38:11.719 --> 00:38:14.019
at<00:38:11.860><c> least</c><00:38:12.019><c> from</c><00:38:12.260><c> a</c><00:38:12.539><c> conceptual</c><00:38:13.260><c> point</c><00:38:13.840><c> of</c><00:38:13.940><c> view.</c>

00:38:14.099 --> 00:38:17.380
We<00:38:14.199><c> understand</c><00:38:15.219><c> that</c><00:38:15.840><c> faith</c><00:38:16.019><c> and</c><00:38:16.199><c> works</c><00:38:16.340><c> are</c><00:38:16.500><c> not</c><00:38:16.659><c> separate</c><00:38:16.960><c> things.</c>

00:38:17.679 --> 00:38:19.380
We<00:38:17.820><c> understand</c><00:38:18.300><c> as</c><00:38:18.420><c> he</c><00:38:18.619><c> goes</c><00:38:18.820><c> on</c><00:38:19.039><c> to</c><00:38:19.199><c> say</c>

00:38:19.380 --> 00:38:23.559
that<00:38:19.679><c> we</c><00:38:20.019><c> show</c><00:38:20.380><c> our</c><00:38:20.960><c> faith</c><00:38:21.519><c> through</c><00:38:22.219><c> our</c><00:38:22.539><c> works.</c>

00:38:23.820 --> 00:38:26.599
And<00:38:23.920><c> if</c><00:38:24.019><c> we</c><00:38:24.239><c> don't,</c><00:38:24.480><c> we're</c><00:38:24.960><c> not</c><00:38:25.260><c> showing</c><00:38:25.840><c> works</c>

00:38:26.599 --> 00:38:28.960
if<00:38:27.119><c> they're</c><00:38:27.380><c> not</c><00:38:27.639><c> acts</c><00:38:27.960><c> of</c><00:38:28.460><c> kindness</c>

00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:31.760
and<00:38:29.699><c> changing</c><00:38:30.360><c> in</c><00:38:30.739><c> ourselves,</c>

00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:32.760
then<00:38:32.019><c> our</c><00:38:32.199><c> faith</c><00:38:32.320><c> is</c><00:38:32.619><c> dead.</c>

00:38:32.760 --> 00:38:35.139
We<00:38:33.199><c> accept</c><00:38:33.719><c> that.</c>

00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:38.539
But<00:38:36.420><c> we</c><00:38:36.539><c> do</c><00:38:36.820><c> still</c><00:38:37.099><c> have</c><00:38:37.659><c> an</c><00:38:38.039><c> equal</c><00:38:38.260><c> measure</c>

00:38:38.539 --> 00:38:41.360
with<00:38:38.699><c> those</c><00:38:38.980><c> around</c><00:38:39.280><c> us</c><00:38:39.460><c> that</c><00:38:39.539><c> have</c><00:38:39.739><c> got</c><00:38:39.860><c> this</c><00:38:40.099><c> passage</c><00:38:40.400><c> wrong,</c>

00:38:41.420 --> 00:38:43.579
the<00:38:41.659><c> problem</c><00:38:42.099><c> of</c><00:38:42.300><c> not</c><00:38:42.519><c> really</c><00:38:42.800><c> living</c><00:38:43.059><c> it,</c>

00:38:43.900 --> 00:38:47.940
of<00:38:44.099><c> not</c><00:38:44.300><c> really</c><00:38:45.280><c> showing</c><00:38:45.800><c> in</c><00:38:46.739><c> the</c><00:38:46.820><c> way</c><00:38:46.960><c> we</c><00:38:47.119><c> live</c><00:38:47.260><c> our</c><00:38:47.519><c> lives</c>

00:38:47.940 --> 00:38:51.019
that<00:38:48.599><c> we</c><00:38:48.820><c> are</c><00:38:49.119><c> indeed</c><00:38:49.400><c> men</c><00:38:49.579><c> and</c><00:38:49.719><c> women</c><00:38:49.880><c> of</c><00:38:50.199><c> faith.</c>

00:38:51.420 --> 00:38:52.820
It's<00:38:51.679><c> a</c><00:38:51.840><c> difficulty</c><00:38:52.099><c> for</c><00:38:52.280><c> all</c><00:38:52.460><c> of</c><00:38:52.559><c> us.</c>

00:38:53.159 --> 00:38:54.900
It<00:38:53.280><c> isn't</c><00:38:53.440><c> just</c><00:38:53.659><c> a</c><00:38:53.760><c> difficulty</c><00:38:54.099><c> for</c><00:38:54.280><c> one</c><00:38:54.420><c> or</c><00:38:54.639><c> two.</c>

00:38:55.360 --> 00:38:58.179
Everyone<00:38:55.900><c> in</c><00:38:56.059><c> this</c><00:38:56.340><c> room</c><00:38:56.920><c> falls</c><00:38:57.559><c> short</c>

00:38:58.179 --> 00:39:01.360
when<00:38:58.739><c> it</c><00:38:58.940><c> comes</c><00:38:59.340><c> to</c><00:38:59.900><c> this</c><00:39:00.199><c> principle.</c>

00:39:02.719 --> 00:39:03.760
Pardon<00:39:03.239><c> me.</c>

00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:04.840
He<00:39:04.019><c> says</c><00:39:04.179><c> in</c><00:39:04.300><c> verse</c><00:39:04.380><c> 19,</c>

00:39:05.099 --> 00:39:08.960
thou<00:39:05.300><c> believest</c><00:39:05.659><c> that</c><00:39:05.800><c> there</c><00:39:06.000><c> is</c><00:39:06.219><c> one</c><00:39:06.519><c> God,</c><00:39:07.440><c> thou</c><00:39:07.639><c> doest</c><00:39:07.980><c> well.</c>

00:39:09.219 --> 00:39:10.400
The<00:39:09.380><c> devils</c><00:39:09.619><c> also</c><00:39:09.980><c> believe,</c>

00:39:10.780 --> 00:39:12.559
but<00:39:10.880><c> the</c><00:39:11.039><c> Mansfield</c><00:39:11.460><c> in</c><00:39:11.599><c> his</c><00:39:11.820><c> little</c><00:39:12.059><c> commentary</c>

00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:14.139
makes<00:39:13.019><c> a</c><00:39:13.179><c> helpful</c><00:39:13.400><c> suggestion</c><00:39:13.860><c> and</c><00:39:13.960><c> says,</c>

00:39:14.579 --> 00:39:19.099
well,<00:39:14.900><c> if</c><00:39:15.079><c> the</c><00:39:15.320><c> devils</c><00:39:15.980><c> refer</c><00:39:16.500><c> to</c><00:39:16.679><c> those</c><00:39:16.940><c> that</c><00:39:17.179><c> were</c><00:39:17.699><c> mentally</c><00:39:18.139><c> ill,</c>

00:39:19.239 --> 00:39:21.519
those<00:39:19.480><c> that</c><00:39:19.659><c> had</c><00:39:19.860><c> devils</c><00:39:20.440><c> in</c><00:39:20.679><c> them,</c>

00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:23.980
then<00:39:21.980><c> even</c><00:39:22.380><c> those</c><00:39:22.659><c> that</c><00:39:22.780><c> were</c><00:39:22.980><c> mentally</c><00:39:23.440><c> ill</c>

00:39:23.980 --> 00:39:25.420
believe<00:39:24.420><c> that</c><00:39:24.579><c> there</c><00:39:24.739><c> is</c><00:39:24.820><c> one</c><00:39:25.039><c> God</c>

00:39:25.420 --> 00:39:27.559
and<00:39:25.820><c> are</c><00:39:26.039><c> afraid</c><00:39:26.340><c> of</c><00:39:26.519><c> that</c><00:39:26.719><c> fact.</c>

00:39:28.500 --> 00:39:29.699
That's<00:39:29.000><c> what</c><00:39:29.199><c> he's</c><00:39:29.380><c> saying.</c>

00:39:29.699 --> 00:39:33.119
They<00:39:30.780><c> believe</c><00:39:31.440><c> this</c><00:39:31.920><c> and</c><00:39:32.719><c> shudder.</c>

00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:34.760
They<00:39:33.420><c> tremble.</c>

00:39:35.099 --> 00:39:38.199
But<00:39:35.239><c> wilt</c><00:39:35.500><c> thou,</c><00:39:35.920><c> O</c><00:39:36.219><c> vain</c><00:39:36.420><c> man,</c><00:39:37.639><c> know</c>

00:39:38.199 --> 00:39:40.440
that<00:39:38.679><c> faith</c><00:39:38.940><c> without</c><00:39:39.340><c> works</c><00:39:39.699><c> is</c><00:39:40.039><c> dead?</c>

00:39:40.900 --> 00:39:43.400
So<00:39:41.539><c> as</c><00:39:41.900><c> Brother</c><00:39:42.179><c> Michael</c><00:39:42.559><c> was</c><00:39:42.800><c> telling</c><00:39:43.000><c> us,</c>

00:39:43.699 --> 00:39:45.739
we<00:39:43.820><c> believe</c><00:39:44.099><c> in</c><00:39:44.400><c> one</c><00:39:44.760><c> God.</c>

00:39:45.900 --> 00:39:48.139
So<00:39:46.079><c> there's</c><00:39:46.260><c> one</c><00:39:46.519><c> integrated</c><00:39:46.960><c> life</c><00:39:47.320><c> that</c><00:39:47.480><c> we</c><00:39:47.579><c> have</c><00:39:47.760><c> to</c><00:39:47.940><c> live.</c>

00:39:48.539 --> 00:39:50.300
Now,<00:39:48.860><c> mine</c><00:39:48.900><c> isn't</c><00:39:49.199><c> integrated.</c>

00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:51.539
Maybe<00:39:50.800><c> yours</c><00:39:51.039><c> is.</c>

00:39:51.940 --> 00:39:54.880
I'm<00:39:52.360><c> working</c><00:39:52.860><c> towards</c><00:39:53.320><c> that</c><00:39:54.179><c> painfully</c>

00:39:54.880 --> 00:39:56.059
through<00:39:55.139><c> the</c><00:39:55.320><c> course</c><00:39:55.539><c> of</c><00:39:55.719><c> my</c><00:39:55.920><c> life</c>

00:39:56.059 --> 00:39:58.019
to<00:39:56.239><c> integrate</c><00:39:56.659><c> the</c><00:39:56.860><c> two</c><00:39:57.000><c> together.</c>

00:39:58.739 --> 00:40:01.159
So<00:39:59.219><c> as</c><00:39:59.500><c> there</c><00:39:59.719><c> is</c><00:39:59.960><c> one</c><00:40:00.199><c> God</c><00:40:00.440><c> right</c><00:40:00.920><c> here,</c>

00:40:01.199 --> 00:40:04.199
we're<00:40:01.420><c> told</c><00:40:01.539><c> exactly</c><00:40:02.119><c> what</c><00:40:02.679><c> Brother</c><00:40:03.099><c> Michael</c><00:40:03.340><c> was</c><00:40:03.539><c> talking</c><00:40:03.820><c> about.</c>

00:40:04.539 --> 00:40:05.719
You<00:40:04.780><c> believe</c><00:40:05.000><c> there's</c><00:40:05.199><c> one</c><00:40:05.460><c> God,</c>

00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:08.360
but<00:40:05.880><c> how</c><00:40:06.039><c> can</c><00:40:06.159><c> you</c><00:40:06.300><c> have</c><00:40:06.440><c> two</c><00:40:06.679><c> ways</c><00:40:06.940><c> of</c><00:40:07.119><c> doing</c><00:40:07.340><c> things?</c>

00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:11.019
How<00:40:09.039><c> can</c><00:40:09.219><c> there</c><00:40:09.360><c> be</c><00:40:09.460><c> this</c><00:40:09.940><c> disconnection</c>

00:40:11.500 --> 00:40:13.900
between<00:40:11.980><c> your</c><00:40:12.460><c> works</c><00:40:12.860><c> and</c><00:40:13.420><c> your</c><00:40:13.659><c> faith?</c>

00:40:14.280 --> 00:40:17.780
Was<00:40:14.500><c> not</c><00:40:14.860><c> Abraham</c><00:40:15.579><c> our</c><00:40:16.079><c> father</c><00:40:16.420><c> justified</c><00:40:17.000><c> by</c><00:40:17.340><c> works</c>

00:40:17.780 --> 00:40:21.019
when<00:40:18.360><c> he</c><00:40:18.519><c> had</c><00:40:18.699><c> offered</c><00:40:18.800><c> up</c><00:40:19.099><c> Isaac</c><00:40:19.440><c> his</c><00:40:19.659><c> son</c><00:40:19.840><c> upon</c><00:40:20.039><c> the</c><00:40:20.260><c> altar?</c>

00:40:21.860 --> 00:40:24.019
Seest<00:40:22.119><c> thou</c><00:40:22.300><c> how</c><00:40:22.500><c> faith</c><00:40:23.000><c> wrought</c><00:40:23.280><c> with</c><00:40:23.480><c> his</c><00:40:23.699><c> works?</c>

00:40:24.179 --> 00:40:26.840
And<00:40:24.380><c> by</c><00:40:24.619><c> works</c><00:40:24.840><c> was</c><00:40:25.139><c> faith</c><00:40:25.400><c> made</c><00:40:25.719><c> perfect.</c>

00:40:27.239 --> 00:40:30.760
And<00:40:27.840><c> then</c><00:40:28.360><c> down</c><00:40:28.900><c> to</c><00:40:29.059><c> verse</c><00:40:29.219><c> 25.</c>

00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:34.880
Likewise<00:40:31.400><c> also</c><00:40:31.880><c> was</c><00:40:32.139><c> not</c><00:40:32.780><c> Rahab</c><00:40:33.300><c> the</c><00:40:33.539><c> harlot</c><00:40:33.800><c> justified</c><00:40:34.340><c> by</c><00:40:34.639><c> works.</c>

00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:41.199
So<00:40:35.239><c> here's</c><00:40:35.519><c> an</c><00:40:35.739><c> allusion</c><00:40:36.679><c> to</c><00:40:37.820><c> a</c><00:40:38.039><c> Gentile</c><00:40:39.239><c> and</c><00:40:40.019><c> her</c><00:40:40.260><c> faith.</c>

00:40:41.539 --> 00:40:44.440
Perhaps<00:40:41.820><c> the</c><00:40:42.079><c> truth</c><00:40:42.179><c> hasn't</c><00:40:42.440><c> yet</c><00:40:42.800><c> made</c><00:40:43.099><c> its</c><00:40:43.260><c> way</c><00:40:43.420><c> out</c><00:40:43.599><c> to</c><00:40:43.760><c> the</c><00:40:43.900><c> Gentiles,</c>

00:40:44.599 --> 00:40:46.079
but<00:40:44.880><c> already</c><00:40:45.320><c> there</c><00:40:45.559><c> are</c><00:40:45.679><c> hints.</c>

00:40:46.579 --> 00:40:49.039
All<00:40:46.780><c> right,</c><00:40:47.739><c> think</c><00:40:47.980><c> of</c><00:40:48.159><c> Father</c><00:40:48.340><c> Abraham,</c>

00:40:49.460 --> 00:40:53.079
and<00:40:49.599><c> then</c><00:40:49.760><c> think</c><00:40:49.940><c> of</c><00:40:50.460><c> Rahab</c><00:40:50.980><c> the</c><00:40:51.199><c> Gentile</c><00:40:51.840><c> prostitute.</c>

00:40:54.039 --> 00:40:55.400
Think<00:40:54.539><c> of</c><00:40:54.739><c> her.</c>

00:40:55.400 --> 00:40:58.579
That<00:40:56.320><c> woman</c><00:40:56.760><c> and</c><00:40:57.320><c> her</c><00:40:57.519><c> faith</c>

00:40:58.699 --> 00:41:01.360
and<00:40:59.280><c> how</c><00:40:59.460><c> God</c><00:40:59.920><c> commended</c><00:41:00.280><c> her</c><00:41:00.519><c> for</c><00:41:00.760><c> it</c>

00:41:01.360 --> 00:41:03.079
and<00:41:01.860><c> had</c><00:41:02.019><c> sent</c><00:41:02.179><c> them</c><00:41:02.340><c> out</c><00:41:02.460><c> the</c><00:41:02.619><c> other</c><00:41:02.800><c> way.</c>

00:41:03.239 --> 00:41:06.639
For<00:41:03.280><c> as</c><00:41:03.420><c> the</c><00:41:03.679><c> body</c><00:41:04.000><c> without</c><00:41:04.280><c> the</c><00:41:04.579><c> Spirit</c><00:41:04.739><c> is</c><00:41:05.039><c> dead,</c>

00:41:07.579 --> 00:41:11.780
so<00:41:07.800><c> faith</c><00:41:08.059><c> without</c><00:41:08.420><c> works</c><00:41:08.900><c> is</c><00:41:09.940><c> dead</c><00:41:10.340><c> also.</c>

00:41:13.900 --> 00:41:15.480
Brothers<00:41:14.019><c> and</c><00:41:14.260><c> sisters,</c>

00:41:19.199 --> 00:41:21.519
when<00:41:19.360><c> John</c><00:41:19.519><c> the</c><00:41:19.659><c> Baptist</c><00:41:19.980><c> saw</c>

00:41:24.340 --> 00:41:25.360
he<00:41:24.420><c> said,</c>

00:41:25.880 --> 00:41:27.780
when<00:41:25.940><c> he</c><00:41:26.119><c> saw</c><00:41:26.260><c> many</c><00:41:26.500><c> of</c><00:41:26.639><c> the</c><00:41:26.780><c> Pharisees</c><00:41:27.219><c> and</c><00:41:27.380><c> Sadducees</c>

00:41:29.260 --> 00:41:31.380
Matthew<00:41:29.559><c> 3</c><00:41:29.800><c> verses</c><00:41:30.039><c> 7</c><00:41:30.320><c> and</c><00:41:30.480><c> 8,</c>

00:41:31.619 --> 00:41:34.420
O<00:41:31.760><c> generation</c><00:41:32.739><c> of</c><00:41:33.239><c> vipers,</c>

00:41:34.599 --> 00:41:38.239
who<00:41:34.900><c> hath</c><00:41:35.179><c> warned</c><00:41:35.480><c> you</c><00:41:35.940><c> to</c><00:41:36.159><c> flee</c><00:41:36.420><c> from</c><00:41:36.639><c> the</c><00:41:36.820><c> wrath</c><00:41:36.960><c> to</c><00:41:37.260><c> come?</c>

00:41:38.659 --> 00:41:42.199
Bring<00:41:39.159><c> forth</c><00:41:39.639><c> therefore</c><00:41:40.659><c> fruits.</c>

00:41:43.699 --> 00:41:45.519
Meet<00:41:43.920><c> for</c><00:41:44.239><c> repentance.</c>

00:41:46.980 --> 00:41:50.119
The<00:41:47.119><c> Lord</c><00:41:47.280><c> Jesus</c><00:41:47.519><c> said</c><00:41:47.920><c> in</c><00:41:48.440><c> chapter</c><00:41:48.840><c> 5</c><00:41:49.159><c> verse</c><00:41:49.420><c> 16,</c>

00:41:50.619 --> 00:41:53.139
Let<00:41:50.760><c> your</c><00:41:51.000><c> light</c><00:41:51.519><c> so</c><00:41:51.920><c> shine</c><00:41:52.179><c> before</c><00:41:52.579><c> men</c>

00:41:53.139 --> 00:41:55.960
that<00:41:53.619><c> they</c><00:41:53.800><c> may</c><00:41:54.019><c> see</c><00:41:54.199><c> your</c><00:41:54.440><c> good</c><00:41:54.719><c> works</c>

00:41:55.980 --> 00:41:58.780

00:41:59.820 --> 00:42:03.559
So<00:42:00.000><c> the</c><00:42:00.219><c> light</c><00:42:00.639><c> must</c><00:42:01.139><c> have</c><00:42:01.340><c> to</c><00:42:01.460><c> do</c><00:42:01.559><c> with</c><00:42:01.760><c> things</c><00:42:02.079><c> that</c><00:42:02.280><c> are</c><00:42:02.619><c> done,</c>

00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:07.940
Remember<00:42:05.280><c> he</c><00:42:05.420><c> had</c><00:42:05.679><c> said</c><00:42:06.260><c> in</c><00:42:06.900><c> John</c><00:42:07.199><c> chapter</c><00:42:07.519><c> 13,</c>

00:42:22.260 --> 00:42:24.860
That's<00:42:22.840><c> what</c><00:42:22.940><c> he</c><00:42:23.059><c> said,</c><00:42:23.380><c> brothers</c><00:42:23.480><c> and</c><00:42:23.719><c> sisters.</c>
