Why<00:02:45.639><c> can't</c><00:02:45.979><c> you</c><00:02:46.180><c> go</c><00:02:46.400><c> do</c><00:02:46.560><c> some</c><00:02:47.080><c> fun</c><00:02:47.400><c> things</c><00:02:47.659><c> instead</c><00:02:47.939><c> of</c><00:02:48.120><c> going</c>

00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.719
So<00:02:49.759><c> we</c><00:02:50.080><c> will</c><00:02:50.319><c> grieve</c><00:02:50.560><c> people</c><00:02:50.819><c> if</c><00:02:50.979><c> we</c><00:02:51.159><c> stand</c><00:02:51.400><c> up</c><00:02:51.520><c> for</c><00:02:51.599><c> what</c><00:02:51.780><c> is</c><00:02:52.000><c> right.</c>

00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:54.800

00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:11.879
Will<00:03:10.080><c> you</c><00:03:10.280><c> rebel</c><00:03:10.539><c> against</c><00:03:10.860><c> the</c><00:03:11.039><c> king?</c>

00:06:07.259 --> 00:06:11.040

00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.240
I<00:06:19.060><c> wonder</c><00:06:19.199><c> if</c><00:06:19.339><c> they'd</c><00:06:19.560><c> starved</c><00:06:20.060><c> to</c><00:06:20.220><c> death.</c>

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:24.100
They'd<00:06:22.519><c> do</c><00:06:22.600><c> a</c><00:06:22.680><c> certain</c><00:06:22.819><c> right</c><00:06:23.100><c> if</c><00:06:23.240><c> they</c><00:06:23.439><c> did,</c><00:06:23.639><c> but</c><00:06:23.779><c> I</c><00:06:23.920><c> bet</c><00:06:24.000><c> you</c>

But<00:06:26.740><c> you</c><00:06:26.899><c> see,</c><00:06:28.160><c> we're</c><00:06:28.240><c> going</c><00:06:28.420><c> to</c><00:06:28.519><c> try</c><00:06:28.680><c> to</c><00:06:28.759><c> get</c><00:06:28.819><c> him</c><00:06:29.000><c> away.</c>

00:06:31.139 --> 00:06:35.500
Just<00:06:31.540><c> remember,</c><00:06:32.319><c> when</c><00:06:32.519><c> you're</c><00:06:32.680><c> being</c><00:06:32.980><c> tempted</c><00:06:33.459><c> to</c><00:06:34.360><c> say</c><00:06:34.740><c> the</c>

00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:40.259
and<00:06:38.920><c> you'll</c><00:06:39.040><c> never</c><00:06:39.199><c> have</c><00:06:39.379><c> a</c><00:06:39.480><c> problem.</c>

00:06:40.459 --> 00:06:41.759
Oh<00:06:40.860><c> no!</c>

00:06:44.180 --> 00:06:48.100
They<00:06:44.660><c> want</c><00:06:44.839><c> to</c><00:06:44.879><c> take</c><00:06:45.040><c> him</c><00:06:45.120><c> to</c><00:06:45.259><c> the</c><00:06:45.420><c> valley</c><00:06:45.720><c> of</c><00:06:46.040><c> Ono.</c>

00:06:55.620 --> 00:06:58.540
So<00:06:56.100><c> that's</c><00:06:56.579><c> the</c><00:06:56.759><c> valley,</c><00:06:57.319><c> that's</c><00:06:57.680><c> the</c><00:06:57.759><c> answer</c><00:06:58.100><c> when</c><00:06:58.279><c> people</c>

00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:13.660
Right.

Solomon<00:09:35.240><c> marry</c><00:09:36.120><c> Pharaoh's</c><00:09:37.139><c> daughter?</c>

00:09:37.580 --> 00:09:38.879
Well,<00:09:37.840><c> it</c><00:09:37.919><c> was</c><00:09:38.120><c> a</c><00:09:38.320><c> political</c><00:09:38.580><c> thing.</c>

00:09:39.340 --> 00:09:42.100
It<00:09:39.440><c> was</c><00:09:39.919><c> a</c><00:09:40.120><c> smart</c><00:09:40.360><c> thing</c><00:09:40.559><c> to</c><00:09:40.799><c> do</c><00:09:40.960><c> from</c><00:09:41.179><c> a</c><00:09:41.360><c> political</c><00:09:41.659><c> viewpoint.</c>

00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:44.919
But<00:09:42.539><c> you</c><00:09:42.740><c> cannot</c><00:09:43.059><c> do</c><00:09:43.299><c> evil</c><00:09:43.539><c> that</c><00:09:43.700><c> good</c><00:09:43.860><c> may</c><00:09:44.179><c> come.</c>

00:09:44.980 --> 00:09:48.460

they<00:19:50.680><c> say.</c>

00:19:52.059 --> 00:19:57.500
And<00:19:52.240><c> it's</c><00:19:52.579><c> amazing</c><00:19:53.319><c> how</c><00:19:53.720><c> we</c><00:19:53.980><c> can</c><00:19:54.259><c> allow</c><00:19:55.480><c> things</c><00:19:56.259><c> of</c><00:19:57.000><c> the</c><00:19:57.299><c> flesh</c>

00:20:01.180 --> 00:20:07.420
We<00:20:01.380><c> must</c><00:20:01.640><c> never</c><00:20:02.259><c> weary</c><00:20:02.700><c> God</c><00:20:03.259><c> by</c><00:20:04.220><c> saying</c><00:20:04.460><c> what</c><00:20:04.700><c> is</c><00:20:05.000><c> evil</c><00:20:05.440><c> is</c><00:20:06.240><c> okay.</c>

But<00:20:36.160><c> there's</c><00:20:36.440><c> a</c><00:20:36.660><c> problem.</c>

00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:39.180
There<00:20:37.319><c> are</c><00:20:37.619><c> nobles</c><00:20:37.859><c> who</c><00:20:38.039><c> have</c><00:20:38.180><c> not</c><00:20:38.339><c> put</c><00:20:38.519><c> their</c><00:20:38.759><c> shoulders</c><00:20:39.000><c> to</c>

00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:50.519
And<00:20:47.539><c> so</c><00:20:47.640><c> the</c><00:20:47.859><c> nobles,</c><00:20:48.140><c> well,</c><00:20:48.279><c> they</c><00:20:48.420><c> were</c><00:20:48.660><c> too</c><00:20:49.000><c> good</c><00:20:49.160><c> to</c><00:20:49.380><c> do</c><00:20:49.539><c> this.</c>

00:20:50.599 --> 00:20:53.920
The<00:20:50.819><c> Tekoites</c><00:20:51.220><c> themselves</c><00:20:51.940><c> were</c><00:20:52.980><c> willing</c><00:20:53.180><c> to</c><00:20:53.400><c> do</c><00:20:53.579><c> it.</c>

But<00:20:54.559><c> their</c><00:20:54.960><c> nobles</c><00:20:55.299><c> wouldn't.</c>

00:20:56.259 --> 00:20:59.660
So<00:20:56.460><c> come</c><00:20:56.720><c> down</c><00:20:56.920><c> to</c><00:20:57.000><c> verse</c><00:20:57.220><c> 27</c><00:20:57.740><c> and</c><00:20:57.940><c> you</c><00:20:58.039><c> see</c><00:20:58.160><c> the</c><00:20:58.339><c> Nechoites</c><00:20:58.779><c> were</c><00:20:58.940><c> so</c><00:20:59.180><c> embarrassed</c>

00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:15.339
So<00:21:11.200><c> the</c><00:21:11.420><c> Tekoites</c><00:21:11.759><c> tried</c><00:21:11.980><c> to</c><00:21:12.220><c> make</c><00:21:12.420><c> up</c><00:21:12.980><c> for</c><00:21:13.240><c> the</c><00:21:14.019><c> slackness</c><00:21:14.619><c> of</c>

00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:32.160
Everything<00:21:25.240><c> that</c><00:21:25.759><c> you</c><00:21:26.319><c> are</c><00:21:26.900><c> doing</c><00:21:27.420><c> or</c><00:21:28.920><c> refusing</c><00:21:29.720><c> to</c><00:21:30.400><c> do</c><00:21:30.980><c> is</c>

00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:40.700
But<00:21:36.839><c> that's</c><00:21:37.279><c> not</c><00:21:37.660><c> fair</c><00:21:37.920><c> because</c><00:21:38.319><c> we</c><00:21:38.759><c> have</c><00:21:39.160><c> privacy</c><00:21:39.640><c> rights.</c>

00:21:44.019 --> 00:21:48.059
I<00:21:44.579><c> mean,</c><00:21:44.579><c> the</c><00:21:44.579><c> world</c><00:21:45.220><c> says</c><00:21:46.519><c> it's</c><00:21:46.859><c> not</c><00:21:47.099><c> right</c><00:21:47.259><c> to</c><00:21:47.500><c> invade</c><00:21:47.799><c> a</c>

00:21:49.579 --> 00:21:52.140
So<00:21:49.720><c> we</c><00:21:49.839><c> have</c><00:21:50.039><c> surveillance</c><00:21:50.619><c> cameras</c><00:21:51.079><c> turned</c><00:21:51.380><c> on</c><00:21:51.660><c> to</c><00:21:51.819><c> us</c><00:21:51.960><c> in</c>

00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:56.779
it's<00:21:55.680><c> not</c><00:21:55.880><c> right.</c>

00:21:57.359 --> 00:21:58.960
You<00:21:57.660><c> know</c><00:21:57.740><c> who</c><00:21:57.880><c> have</c><00:21:57.980><c> the</c><00:21:58.180><c> rights</c><00:21:58.359><c> in</c><00:21:58.500><c> this</c><00:21:58.680><c> country?</c>

00:21:59.079 --> 00:22:00.359
The<00:21:59.380><c> criminals.</c>

00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:03.920
Do<00:22:01.400><c> you</c><00:22:01.500><c> have</c><00:22:01.619><c> any</c><00:22:01.980><c> privacy</c><00:22:02.400><c> rights</c><00:22:02.779><c> with</c><00:22:03.039><c> God?</c>

00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:06.180
Do<00:22:04.480><c> you</c><00:22:04.619><c> think</c><00:22:04.799><c> that</c><00:22:04.980><c> you're</c><00:22:05.140><c> getting</c><00:22:05.380><c> away</c><00:22:05.720><c> with</c><00:22:05.940><c> anything</c>

00:22:06.180 --> 00:22:08.180
that<00:22:06.359><c> he</c><00:22:06.480><c> doesn't</c><00:22:06.759><c> know</c><00:22:07.079><c> about?</c>

00:22:08.500 --> 00:22:10.799
Even<00:22:08.680><c> what</c><00:22:08.880><c> you</c><00:22:09.039><c> think,</c><00:22:09.440><c> even</c><00:22:09.640><c> before</c><00:22:09.940><c> you</c><00:22:10.259><c> think</c><00:22:10.480><c> it</c><00:22:10.579><c> we're</c>

00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:12.079
told<00:22:11.000><c> he</c><00:22:11.140><c> knows</c><00:22:11.420><c> about</c><00:22:11.740><c> it.</c>

00:22:12.420 --> 00:22:14.220
So<00:22:12.599><c> there's</c><00:22:12.839><c> no</c><00:22:13.039><c> such</c><00:22:13.259><c> thing</c><00:22:13.500><c> as</c><00:22:13.799><c> privacy.</c>

00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:18.059
We<00:22:14.759><c> ought</c><00:22:15.000><c> not</c><00:22:15.400><c> feel</c><00:22:15.819><c> we</c><00:22:16.099><c> have</c><00:22:16.339><c> a</c><00:22:16.539><c> right</c><00:22:16.759><c> to</c><00:22:17.039><c> privacy</c>

00:22:19.220 --> 00:22:21.740
because<00:22:19.660><c> it's</c><00:22:20.099><c> all</c><00:22:20.579><c> known</c><00:22:20.880><c> to</c><00:22:21.099><c> our</c><00:22:21.200><c> Heavenly</c><00:22:21.480><c> Father.</c>

00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:23.019
So<00:22:22.160><c> what's</c><00:22:22.680><c> the</c><00:22:22.720><c> answer?</c>

00:22:23.180 --> 00:22:25.819
Well<00:22:23.359><c> don't</c><00:22:23.539><c> do</c><00:22:23.759><c> anything</c><00:22:24.019><c> that</c><00:22:24.640><c> you</c><00:22:24.980><c> don't</c><00:22:25.259><c> want</c><00:22:25.460><c> God</c><00:22:25.660><c> to</c>

know<00:22:26.000><c> about.</c>

00:22:27.259 --> 00:22:29.400
I<00:22:27.539><c> told</c><00:22:27.700><c> the</c><00:22:27.920><c> kids</c><00:22:28.059><c> this</c><00:22:28.279><c> morning,</c><00:22:28.539><c> I</c><00:22:28.579><c> said</c><00:22:28.740><c> when</c><00:22:29.019><c> you</c><00:22:29.140><c> go</c><00:22:29.279><c> out</c>

00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:31.519
just<00:22:30.000><c> pretend</c><00:22:30.259><c> your</c><00:22:30.460><c> mother's</c><00:22:30.720><c> in</c><00:22:30.819><c> the</c><00:22:30.940><c> back</c><00:22:31.160><c> seat,</c><00:22:31.380><c> you'll</c>

be<00:22:31.740><c> all</c><00:22:32.000><c> right.</c>

00:22:36.859 --> 00:22:39.920
You'll<00:22:37.299><c> never</c><00:22:37.539><c> misbehave</c><00:22:38.119><c> with</c><00:22:38.259><c> your</c><00:22:38.440><c> mom's</c><00:22:38.660><c> in</c><00:22:38.759><c> the</c><00:22:38.880><c> back</c><00:22:39.140><c> seat.</c>

00:22:40.539 --> 00:22:42.859
But<00:22:40.680><c> the</c><00:22:40.880><c> point</c><00:22:41.059><c> is</c><00:22:41.240><c> if</c><00:22:41.400><c> the</c><00:22:41.559><c> angel</c><00:22:41.720><c> of</c><00:22:41.859><c> the</c><00:22:41.940><c> Lord</c><00:22:42.059><c> camps</c><00:22:42.359><c> around</c><00:22:42.559><c> about</c>

00:22:43.339 --> 00:22:45.299
there<00:22:43.519><c> is</c><00:22:43.740><c> somebody</c><00:22:43.980><c> in</c><00:22:44.140><c> the</c><00:22:44.259><c> back</c><00:22:44.500><c> seat.</c>

00:23:16.299 --> 00:23:17.900
The<00:23:16.460><c> angel</c><00:23:16.619><c> thinks,</c><00:23:17.119><c> well</c><00:23:17.140><c> I</c><00:23:17.259><c> don't</c><00:23:17.440><c> go</c><00:23:17.680><c> in</c><00:23:17.819><c> there.</c>

00:23:21.619 --> 00:23:24.519
If<00:23:22.059><c> we</c><00:23:22.319><c> keep</c><00:23:22.539><c> going</c><00:23:22.839><c> places</c><00:23:23.259><c> where</c><00:23:23.599><c> guardian</c><00:23:23.980><c> angels</c><00:23:24.279><c> ought</c>

Through<00:23:40.039><c> the</c><00:23:40.200><c> eye</c><00:23:40.359><c> of</c><00:23:40.500><c> faith</c><00:23:40.680><c> we</c><00:23:41.019><c> can</c><00:23:41.319><c> actually</c><00:23:41.900><c> talk</c><00:23:42.240><c> to</c><00:23:42.480><c> our</c>

So<00:23:46.259><c> be</c><00:23:46.740><c> careful</c><00:23:47.059><c> what</c><00:23:47.279><c> you</c><00:23:47.539><c> think</c><00:23:47.759><c> and</c><00:23:47.960><c> what</c><00:23:48.079><c> you</c><00:23:48.319><c> say</c><00:23:48.460><c> and</c><00:23:48.579><c> what</c><00:23:48.720><c> you</c><00:23:48.920><c> do</c>

Well,<00:35:50.239><c> he</c><00:35:50.340><c> said,</c><00:35:50.559><c> if</c><00:35:50.619><c> you</c><00:35:50.739><c> don't</c><00:35:50.940><c> know</c><00:35:51.139><c> about</c><00:35:51.280><c> the</c><00:35:51.400><c> covenants</c>

No<00:35:55.860><c> Savior.</c>

00:35:56.739 --> 00:35:57.940
Do<00:35:56.840><c> you</c><00:35:56.840><c> like</c><00:35:57.000><c> that?</c>

00:35:58.539 --> 00:36:00.679
People<00:35:58.820><c> don't</c><00:35:59.019><c> know</c><00:35:59.079><c> they</c><00:35:59.239><c> don't</c><00:35:59.440><c> have</c><00:35:59.619><c> one,</c><00:35:59.920><c> you</c><00:36:00.019><c> see.</c>

00:36:00.699 --> 00:36:01.860
So<00:36:00.900><c> you</c><00:36:01.119><c> have</c><00:36:01.320><c> to</c><00:36:01.400><c> help</c><00:36:01.559><c> people.</c>

00:36:02.119 --> 00:36:03.119
And<00:36:02.179><c> you</c><00:36:02.260><c> do</c><00:36:02.400><c> it</c><00:36:02.559><c> by...</c>

00:36:03.119 --> 00:36:04.619
Nobody<00:36:03.579><c> has</c><00:36:03.699><c> ever</c><00:36:03.920><c> hit</c><00:36:04.059><c> me.</c>

00:36:04.619 --> 00:36:07.300
I<00:36:05.360><c> think</c><00:36:05.820><c> sometimes</c><00:36:06.159><c> they</c><00:36:06.320><c> wanted</c><00:36:06.539><c> to.</c>

00:36:08.619 --> 00:36:10.980
But<00:36:09.039><c> the</c><00:36:09.199><c> point</c><00:36:09.400><c> was,</c><00:36:09.639><c> even</c><00:36:09.800><c> if</c><00:36:09.940><c> they</c><00:36:10.079><c> did,</c><00:36:10.519><c> they</c><00:36:10.619><c> certainly</c>

00:36:10.980 --> 00:36:12.519
hit<00:36:11.420><c> the</c><00:36:12.300><c> Lord.</c>

00:36:12.539 --> 00:36:15.639
They<00:36:12.719><c> certainly</c><00:36:12.940><c> hit</c><00:36:13.219><c> the</c><00:36:13.780><c> disciples</c><00:36:14.219><c> in</c><00:36:14.380><c> the</c><00:36:14.500><c> old</c><00:36:14.679><c> days.</c>

00:36:15.659 --> 00:36:18.880
We<00:36:15.840><c> sometimes</c><00:36:16.179><c> have</c><00:36:16.340><c> to</c><00:36:16.659><c> stand</c><00:36:17.079><c> up</c><00:36:17.840><c> where</c><00:36:18.239><c> we</c><00:36:18.539><c> are.</c>

00:36:19.300 --> 00:36:24.340
So<00:36:19.719><c> the</c><00:36:20.139><c> lesson</c><00:36:20.440><c> of</c><00:36:20.739><c> these</c><00:36:20.920><c> people</c><00:36:21.199><c> working</c><00:36:21.619><c> right</c><00:36:22.340><c> across</c><00:36:22.719><c> the</c><00:36:22.940><c> street</c><00:36:23.079><c> from</c><00:36:23.320><c> their</c><00:36:23.519><c> house</c><00:36:24.039><c> to</c>

00:36:24.340 --> 00:36:24.860

00:36:24.860 --> 00:36:27.500
is<00:36:25.199><c> they</c><00:36:25.340><c> walked</c><00:36:25.559><c> out</c><00:36:25.719><c> of</c><00:36:25.800><c> the</c><00:36:25.920><c> house</c><00:36:26.079><c> and</c><00:36:26.199><c> went</c><00:36:26.320><c> to</c><00:36:26.500><c> work.</c>

00:36:27.579 --> 00:36:29.320
And<00:36:27.840><c> you</c><00:36:28.000><c> and</c><00:36:28.139><c> I</c><00:36:28.239><c> can</c><00:36:28.380><c> do</c><00:36:28.539><c> that</c><00:36:28.780><c> too.</c>

00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:32.179
Wherever<00:36:29.880><c> you</c><00:36:30.179><c> are,</c><00:36:30.719><c> you</c><00:36:30.960><c> can</c><00:36:31.159><c> do</c><00:36:31.360><c> something.</c>

00:36:33.460 --> 00:36:39.559
So,<00:36:36.340><c> the</c><00:36:36.460><c> next</c><00:36:36.659><c> gate</c><00:36:36.739><c> we</c><00:36:36.900><c> come</c><00:36:37.099><c> to</c><00:36:37.340><c> is</c><00:36:37.519><c> the</c><00:36:37.719><c> East</c><00:36:37.960><c> Gate.</c>

00:36:39.599 --> 00:36:42.199
And<00:36:39.599><c> it's</c><00:36:39.800><c> in</c><00:36:39.900><c> Nehemiah</c><00:36:40.679><c> chapter</c><00:36:41.000><c> 3</c><00:36:41.239><c> verse</c><00:36:41.480><c> 29.</c>

00:36:45.019 --> 00:36:47.780

As<00:37:20.179><c> believers,</c><00:37:20.739><c> let</c><00:37:20.820><c> us</c><00:37:21.139><c> gather</c><00:37:21.519><c> at</c><00:37:21.760><c> the</c><00:37:22.019><c> East</c><00:37:22.380><c> Gate</c><00:37:22.699><c> and</c><00:37:23.340><c> look</c>

00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:35.940

00:41:02.179 --> 00:41:04.760
These<00:41:02.380><c> are</c><00:41:02.579><c> the</c><00:41:02.699><c> kinds</c><00:41:02.920><c> of</c><00:41:03.139><c> thoughts</c><00:41:03.500><c> generated</c><00:41:04.059><c> as</c><00:41:04.280><c> we</c><00:41:04.460><c> pass</c>

00:41:08.019 --> 00:41:10.500
We're<00:41:08.119><c> either</c><00:41:08.340><c> going</c><00:41:08.539><c> to</c><00:41:08.659><c> have</c><00:41:08.780><c> our</c><00:41:08.920><c> name</c><00:41:09.179><c> written</c><00:41:09.639><c> in</c><00:41:09.900><c> the</c><00:41:10.039><c> book</c><00:41:10.239><c> of</c>

00:41:21.159 --> 00:41:24.679
It's<00:41:21.280><c> as</c><00:41:21.440><c> if</c><00:41:21.619><c> God</c><00:41:21.880><c> had</c><00:41:22.099><c> some</c><00:41:22.460><c> white</c><00:41:22.719><c> out</c><00:41:23.539><c> where</c><00:41:24.159><c> if</c><00:41:24.360><c> our</c><00:41:24.480><c> name</c>

00:41:26.199 --> 00:41:28.480
I<00:41:26.340><c> have</c><00:41:26.559><c> a</c><00:41:26.599><c> feeling</c><00:41:26.780><c> that</c><00:41:27.119><c> everyone's</c><00:41:27.699><c> name</c><00:41:27.940><c> is</c><00:41:28.119><c> put</c><00:41:28.260><c> in</c><00:41:28.400><c> the</c>

00:41:32.820 --> 00:41:34.599
And<00:41:32.980><c> there</c><00:41:33.099><c> is</c><00:41:33.219><c> your</c><00:41:33.360><c> name</c><00:41:33.500><c> put</c><00:41:33.659><c> in</c><00:41:33.760><c> the</c><00:41:33.840><c> book</c><00:41:33.960><c> of</c><00:41:34.199><c> life.</c><00:41:34.460><c> And</c>

00:41:34.599 --> 00:41:38.639
now<00:41:35.219><c> the</c><00:41:35.460><c> question</c><00:41:35.780><c> is,</c><00:41:36.980><c> will</c><00:41:37.059><c> it</c><00:41:37.360><c> stay</c><00:41:37.599><c> there?</c>

00:41:39.519 --> 00:41:44.679
We<00:41:40.059><c> read</c><00:41:40.300><c> in</c><00:41:40.480><c> Malachi</c><00:41:40.980><c> 3,</c><00:41:42.739><c> those</c><00:41:42.800><c> who</c><00:41:43.119><c> feared</c><00:41:43.360><c> the</c><00:41:43.599><c> Lord</c><00:41:44.000><c> spake</c>

00:41:50.900 --> 00:41:53.119
And<00:41:51.019><c> so</c><00:41:51.119><c> a</c><00:41:51.199><c> book</c><00:41:51.360><c> of</c><00:41:51.599><c> remembrance</c><00:41:51.980><c> was</c><00:41:52.260><c> written</c><00:41:52.500><c> before</c><00:41:52.880><c> him</c>

00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:58.159
for<00:41:53.300><c> those</c><00:41:53.699><c> who</c><00:41:54.159><c> fear</c><00:41:54.360><c> the</c><00:41:54.599><c> Lord</c><00:41:55.059><c> and</c><00:41:55.800><c> that</c><00:41:56.039><c> meditate</c><00:41:56.539><c> on</c><00:41:56.960><c> his</c><00:41:57.260><c> name.</c>

00:41:58.980 --> 00:42:01.480
So<00:41:59.199><c> I</c><00:41:59.380><c> believe</c><00:41:59.599><c> our</c><00:41:59.920><c> names</c><00:42:00.179><c> have</c><00:42:00.380><c> been</c><00:42:00.539><c> written</c><00:42:00.719><c> in</c><00:42:00.900><c> that</c><00:42:01.119><c> book.</c>

00:42:01.480 --> 00:42:04.780
The<00:42:02.079><c> question</c><00:42:02.360><c> is,</c><00:42:02.699><c> we're</c><00:42:02.900><c> going</c><00:42:03.099><c> to</c><00:42:03.280><c> pass</c><00:42:03.480><c> through</c><00:42:03.679><c> that</c><00:42:03.980><c> gate.</c>

And<00:42:32.460><c> the</c><00:42:32.679><c> one</c><00:42:33.079><c> who</c><00:42:33.619><c> does</c><00:42:33.980><c> not</c><00:42:34.280><c> serve</c><00:42:34.559><c> him.</c>

00:42:36.139 --> 00:42:39.519
And<00:42:36.260><c> so</c><00:42:36.619><c> we've</c><00:42:37.119><c> been</c><00:42:37.260><c> looking</c><00:42:37.440><c> at</c><00:42:37.619><c> the</c><00:42:37.820><c> gates</c><00:42:38.119><c> this</c><00:42:38.579><c> morning.</c>

00:42:39.659 --> 00:42:43.380
It<00:42:39.800><c> might</c><00:42:39.900><c> seem</c><00:42:40.179><c> like</c><00:42:40.519><c> a</c><00:42:40.599><c> dull</c><00:42:40.860><c> subject,</c><00:42:41.619><c> just</c><00:42:41.800><c> the</c><00:42:42.019><c> gates</c><00:42:42.239><c> of</c><00:42:42.500><c> Jerusalem.</c>
