00:00:24,690<br \/>\ntalk a week to help us get the<br \/>\nBible in our Daily News feed. <\/p>\n<p>6<br \/>\n00:00:24,890 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:28,490<br \/>\nEach week we post talk that we<br \/>\npreviewed from suggestions sent <\/p>\n<p>7<br \/>\n00:00:28,490 &#8211;&gt;

00:00:36,490<br \/>\nrecommendation to you on why we<br \/>\nare sharing the talk. <\/p>\n<p>10<br \/>\n00:00:36,650 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:39,640<br \/>\nAnd now let&#8217;s talk more about<br \/>\nthis week&#8217;s talk. <\/p>\n<p>11<br \/>\n00:00:50,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:53,680<br \/>\nHi everyone, it&#8217;s Jason Hensley.<br \/>\nThis week we are going to be <\/p>\n<p>12<br \/>\n00:00:53,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:00,280<br \/>\nlistening to a class by brother<br \/>\nBen Brinkerhoff given in 2023 at<\/p>\n<p>13<br \/>\n00:01:00,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:05,319<br \/>\nthe Rocky Mountain Bible School.<br \/>\nThis is the first in his series <\/p>\n<p>14<br \/>\n00:01:05,319 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:08,480<br \/>\nof five.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s all about resentment. <\/p>\n<p>15<br \/>\n00:01:09,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:13,600<br \/>\nThe whole series is and yet it&#8217;s<br \/>\nsort of like a case study of <\/p>\n<p>16<br \/>\n00:01:14,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:18,720<br \/>\nJudah, the brother of Joseph and<br \/>\nthe son of Jacob. <\/p>\n<p>17<br \/>\n00:01:21,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:26,080<br \/>\nI liked this Series A lot, and<br \/>\nin fact, I had a hard time <\/p>\n<p>18<br \/>\n00:01:26,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:29,120<br \/>\nchoosing which of the five<br \/>\nclasses to put up here. <\/p>\n<p>19<br \/>\n00:01:29,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:33,560<br \/>\nBut ultimately, what I decided<br \/>\nto go with was really the first <\/p>\n<p>20<br \/>\n00:01:33,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:37,520<br \/>\nclass, primarily because I hope<br \/>\nthat you listen to the other <\/p>\n<p>21<br \/>\n00:01:37,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:41,080<br \/>\nones.<br \/>\nAnd thus I didn&#8217;t want to start <\/p>\n<p>22<br \/>\n00:01:41,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:45,160<br \/>\nyou off on Class 4 or Class 5.<br \/>\nI feel like it&#8217;s a little bit <\/p>\n<p>23<br \/>\n00:01:45,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:47,360<br \/>\nharder to listen to the rest of<br \/>\nthe series when you start in the<\/p>\n<p>24<br \/>\n00:01:47,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:51,600<br \/>\nmiddle.<br \/>\nSo I chose class one just <\/p>\n<p>25<br \/>\n00:01:51,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:56,120<br \/>\nbecause hopefully it lays that<br \/>\nfoundation for you to then be <\/p>\n<p>26<br \/>\n00:01:56,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:58,400<br \/>\nable to go and listen to the<br \/>\nothers. <\/p>\n<p>27<br \/>\n00:01:59,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:01,720<br \/>\nThis is a series, as I said, on<br \/>\nresentment. <\/p>\n<p>28<br \/>\n00:02:03,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:06,240<br \/>\nI think it&#8217;s one of those things<br \/>\nthat we all struggle with. <\/p>\n<p>29<br \/>\n00:02:06,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:12,040<br \/>\nWe all struggle with letting go,<br \/>\nand in considering the story of <\/p>\n<p>30<br \/>\n00:02:12,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:16,640<br \/>\nJudah, we&#8217;re given some<br \/>\nincredibly powerful and <\/p>\n<p>31<br \/>\n00:02:16,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:22,920<br \/>\nbeautiful pictures of God&#8217;s<br \/>\ngrace in action and what that <\/p>\n<p>32<br \/>\n00:02:22,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:27,600<br \/>\ngrace inspires Judah to do.<br \/>\nSo I hope you enjoy this and I <\/p>\n<p>33<br \/>\n00:02:27,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:28,920<br \/>\nhope you enjoy the rest of the<br \/>\nseries. <\/p>\n<p>34<br \/>\n00:02:29,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:35,360<br \/>\nSo here&#8217;s Ben Briggerhoff, Rocky<br \/>\nMountain Bible School 2023, and <\/p>\n<p>35<br \/>\n00:02:35,360 &#8211;&gt;

00:03:14,400<br \/>\nresponses.<br \/>\nI think I&#8217;ll let you know how <\/p>\n<p>44<br \/>\n00:03:14,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:19,120<br \/>\nthat goes.<br \/>\nI listen I I bring warm <\/p>\n<p>45<br \/>\n00:03:19,120 &#8211;&gt;

00:03:33,440<br \/>\nfact my wife Alyssa and my four<br \/>\nchildren cannot be with me this <\/p>\n<p>48<br \/>\n00:03:33,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:36,480<br \/>\nweek.<br \/>\nThey want me to convey their <\/p>\n<p>49<br \/>\n00:03:36,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:44,320<br \/>\nlove to you as well.<br \/>\nSo you know, Jesus tells us and <\/p>\n<p>50<br \/>\n00:03:44,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:47,680<br \/>\nbrother Josh, even last night he<br \/>\nsays, listen, there&#8217;s two great <\/p>\n<p>51<br \/>\n00:03:47,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:49,120<br \/>\ncommandments and you know what<br \/>\nthey are. <\/p>\n<p>52<br \/>\n00:03:50,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:52,640<br \/>\nSo the love of the Lord your God<br \/>\nwith all your heart, soul, mind <\/p>\n<p>53<br \/>\n00:03:52,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:56,280<br \/>\nand strength.<br \/>\nAnd what&#8217;s the other one? <\/p>\n<p>54<br \/>\n00:04:05,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:07,120<br \/>\nIf also love your neighbor as<br \/>\nyourself, right? <\/p>\n<p>55<br \/>\n00:04:12,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:16,880<br \/>\nAnd we and Christian Elphis, we<br \/>\nlove, we love this, we love it. <\/p>\n<p>56<br \/>\n00:04:17,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:22,560<br \/>\nWe like to talk about it, we<br \/>\nlike to expound it, we like to <\/p>\n<p>57<br \/>\n00:04:22,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:29,320<br \/>\ndiscuss it, exhort on it.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s just the doing it that&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>58<br \/>\n00:04:29,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:30,400<br \/>\nhard.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s the part. <\/p>\n<p>59<br \/>\n00:04:30,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:34,120<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s the part that&#8217;s hard.<br \/>\nAnd you ask yourself the <\/p>\n<p>60<br \/>\n00:04:34,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:36,720<br \/>\nquestion, why?<br \/>\nWhat&#8217;s getting in the way? <\/p>\n<p>61<br \/>\n00:04:37,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:39,520<br \/>\nListen to love your neighbors<br \/>\nyourself. <\/p>\n<p>62<br \/>\n00:04:39,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:43,760<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s this verse is found in<br \/>\nMatthew, it&#8217;s found in Mark, <\/p>\n<p>63<br \/>\n00:04:43,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:47,800<br \/>\nit&#8217;s found in Luke, it&#8217;s found<br \/>\nin Galatians and Romans. <\/p>\n<p>64<br \/>\n00:04:48,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:52,120<br \/>\nAnd if you missed the point,<br \/>\nit&#8217;s found in the book of James.<\/p>\n<p>65<br \/>\n00:04:52,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:56,640<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s everywhere, right?<br \/>\nAnd what what&#8217;s getting in our <\/p>\n<p>66<br \/>\n00:04:56,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:01,000<br \/>\nway?<br \/>\nAnd if you go back to the Rick <\/p>\n<p>67<br \/>\n00:05:01,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:07,840<br \/>\nof the verse in its original<br \/>\ncontext in Leviticus, I think we<\/p>\n<p>68<br \/>\n00:05:07,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:09,840<br \/>\nget a clue to what the problem<br \/>\nmight be. <\/p>\n<p>69<br \/>\n00:05:10,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:16,920<br \/>\nOK Leviticus chapter 19 and<br \/>\nverse 17 for context. <\/p>\n<p>70<br \/>\n00:05:18,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:23,680<br \/>\nYou shall not hate your brother<br \/>\nin your heart, but you shall <\/p>\n<p>71<br \/>\n00:05:23,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:27,480<br \/>\nreason with your neighbor, who<br \/>\nlest you bear sin because of <\/p>\n<p>72<br \/>\n00:05:27,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:32,760<br \/>\nhim, you shall not take<br \/>\nvengeance or bear any grudge <\/p>\n<p>73<br \/>\n00:05:32,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:35,640<br \/>\nagainst the sons of your own<br \/>\npeople, but you shall love your <\/p>\n<p>74<br \/>\n00:05:35,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:37,640<br \/>\nneighbor as yourself.<br \/>\nI am the Lord so. <\/p>\n<p>75<br \/>\n00:05:38,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:43,160<br \/>\nSo why do we find so much<br \/>\ntrouble following this beautiful<\/p>\n<p>76<br \/>\n00:05:43,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:48,200<br \/>\ncommandment of the Lord?<br \/>\nPerhaps the reason is, is that <\/p>\n<p>77<br \/>\n00:05:48,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:53,560<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re bearing a grudge.<br \/>\nAnd if we have hate in our heart<\/p>\n<p>78<br \/>\n00:05:55,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:58,440<br \/>\nand we&#8217;re bearing a grudge, we,<br \/>\nwe can&#8217;t love. <\/p>\n<p>79<br \/>\n00:05:58,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:01,000<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s, it&#8217;s like bearing a grudge<br \/>\nand love. <\/p>\n<p>80<br \/>\n00:06:01,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:02,760<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s like they&#8217;re these<br \/>\nopposites. <\/p>\n<p>81<br \/>\n00:06:04,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:06,920<br \/>\nAdmit it.<br \/>\nIf you have, if you are bearing <\/p>\n<p>82<br \/>\n00:06:06,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:10,440<br \/>\na grudge in your heart, love is<br \/>\nvery hard. <\/p>\n<p>83<br \/>\n00:06:12,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:15,680<br \/>\nAnd if you have a lot of love in<br \/>\nyour heart, you&#8217;re probably not <\/p>\n<p>84<br \/>\n00:06:15,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:20,400<br \/>\nbearing very many grudges.<br \/>\nThese, these things are like <\/p>\n<p>85<br \/>\n00:06:20,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:24,440<br \/>\nopposites to one another.<br \/>\nAnd, and I&#8217;d like to talk to you<\/p>\n<p>86<br \/>\n00:06:24,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:26,760<br \/>\nthis week from time to time<br \/>\nabout love, if I can. <\/p>\n<p>87<br \/>\n00:06:27,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:31,640<br \/>\nBut you know, if, if I talk to<br \/>\nyou about love and you&#8217;re being <\/p>\n<p>88<br \/>\n00:06:31,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:35,040<br \/>\na grudge, it&#8217;s like taking a cup<br \/>\nfull of that&#8217;s full of water and<\/p>\n<p>89<br \/>\n00:06:35,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:38,160<br \/>\nputting under a spigot and the,<br \/>\nthe listen, the water&#8217;s going to<\/p>\n<p>90<br \/>\n00:06:38,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:40,200<br \/>\nhit the cup.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s just run over the side. <\/p>\n<p>91<br \/>\n00:06:40,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:43,480<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not going to stick.<br \/>\nBecause if you have a grudge in <\/p>\n<p>92<br \/>\n00:06:43,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:47,640<br \/>\nyour heart that is, that is<br \/>\nactually preventing you from <\/p>\n<p>93<br \/>\n00:06:47,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:52,120<br \/>\nfrom having love.<br \/>\nSo for its simplicity in these <\/p>\n<p>94<br \/>\n00:06:52,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:57,720<br \/>\nstudies I&#8217;m going to refer to<br \/>\ngrudges and hate primarily using<\/p>\n<p>95<br \/>\n00:06:57,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:00,840<br \/>\nthis word resentment because<br \/>\nit&#8217;s a word that captures the <\/p>\n<p>96<br \/>\n00:07:00,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:03,920<br \/>\nattitude of the person I want to<br \/>\nconsider together. <\/p>\n<p>97<br \/>\n00:07:04,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:07,520<br \/>\nNow resentment comes from 2<br \/>\nparts of speech. <\/p>\n<p>98<br \/>\n00:07:08,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:12,640<br \/>\nThe first word is re and not as<br \/>\nin my uncle&#8217;s name. <\/p>\n<p>99<br \/>\n00:07:12,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:20,760<br \/>\nNo re as in to do again as in<br \/>\nrestore or replay, right? <\/p>\n<p>100<br \/>\n00:07:20,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:24,760<br \/>\nYou&#8217;re doing something again.<br \/>\nAnd the second part of speech <\/p>\n<p>101<br \/>\n00:07:24,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:29,200<br \/>\nthis word derives from is this<br \/>\nword sentire, which is Latin for<\/p>\n<p>102<br \/>\n00:07:29,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:33,360<br \/>\nto feel.<br \/>\nSo the word resentment really <\/p>\n<p>103<br \/>\n00:07:33,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:39,840<br \/>\nmeans to feel again.<br \/>\nAnd it&#8217;s appropriate word for <\/p>\n<p>104<br \/>\n00:07:39,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:46,080<br \/>\nsomeone who is bearing a grudge.<br \/>\nMany of us feel old hurts and <\/p>\n<p>105<br \/>\n00:07:46,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:52,680<br \/>\npains again and again and, and,<br \/>\nand we replay the scene. <\/p>\n<p>106<br \/>\n00:07:53,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:56,280<br \/>\nYou know how it is, admit it.<br \/>\nYou replay the scene in your <\/p>\n<p>107<br \/>\n00:07:56,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:01,360<br \/>\nbrain and, and, and you and you<br \/>\nre victimize yourself while <\/p>\n<p>108<br \/>\n00:08:01,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:06,720<br \/>\nwhile simultaneously and<br \/>\nironically promising that you&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>109<br \/>\n00:08:06,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:08,920<br \/>\nnever going to let yourself be<br \/>\nhurt like that again. <\/p>\n<p>110<br \/>\n00:08:09,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:13,760<br \/>\nWhilst you are thinking about<br \/>\nthe thing that hurts you, whilst<\/p>\n<p>111<br \/>\n00:08:14,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:19,240<br \/>\nyou are hurting yourself again,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>112<br \/>\n00:08:19,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:21,400<br \/>\nI see some nods.<br \/>\nYou know who you are, right? <\/p>\n<p>113<br \/>\n00:08:22,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:27,480<br \/>\nRight.<br \/>\nI believe that all of us <\/p>\n<p>114<br \/>\n00:08:27,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:30,480<br \/>\nstruggle with this.<br \/>\nSo what can we do about it? <\/p>\n<p>115<br \/>\n00:08:30,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:33,919<br \/>\nPerhaps one of the best things<br \/>\nwe can do about it is to look at<\/p>\n<p>116<br \/>\n00:08:33,919 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:37,080<br \/>\nthe example in scripture of one<br \/>\nwho overcame resentment. <\/p>\n<p>117<br \/>\n00:08:37,679 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:43,720<br \/>\nAnd now Leviticus says you shall<br \/>\nnot hate your brother in your <\/p>\n<p>118<br \/>\n00:08:43,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:46,640<br \/>\nheart.<br \/>\nAnd the Bible reads, leaves a <\/p>\n<p>119<br \/>\n00:08:46,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:49,840<br \/>\nrecord of a man that did hate<br \/>\nhis brother in his heart and he <\/p>\n<p>120<br \/>\n00:08:49,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:52,120<br \/>\nappeared to have every valid<br \/>\nreason to do so. <\/p>\n<p>121<br \/>\n00:08:52,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:55,800<br \/>\nAnd his name was Judah.<br \/>\nNow consider, consider for a <\/p>\n<p>122<br \/>\n00:08:55,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:59,920<br \/>\nmoment Judah.<br \/>\nJudah goes from hating his <\/p>\n<p>123<br \/>\n00:08:59,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:06,040<br \/>\nbrother to selling him into<br \/>\nslavery to lying about it to his<\/p>\n<p>124<br \/>\n00:09:06,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:08,400<br \/>\nfather.<br \/>\nThis is notice the downward <\/p>\n<p>125<br \/>\n00:09:08,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:10,000<br \/>\ntrend here.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not getting any better, <\/p>\n<p>126<br \/>\n00:09:10,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:12,760<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nHe runs away from the ecclesia, <\/p>\n<p>127<br \/>\n00:09:13,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:16,560<br \/>\nthen he marries in the world.<br \/>\nOh, and then he falls into <\/p>\n<p>128<br \/>\n00:09:16,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:18,960<br \/>\nsexual sin.<br \/>\nThis is Judah. <\/p>\n<p>129<br \/>\n00:09:23,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:25,880<br \/>\nAnd then he sacrifices himself<br \/>\nfor his father. <\/p>\n<p>130<br \/>\n00:09:27,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:30,840<br \/>\nHow does someone go from there<br \/>\nback up to here? <\/p>\n<p>131<br \/>\n00:09:31,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:34,400<br \/>\nHow does that happen?<br \/>\nHow can I do that? <\/p>\n<p>132<br \/>\n00:09:35,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:39,520<br \/>\nHow can you do that?<br \/>\nSo in our first 3 1\/2 studies <\/p>\n<p>133<br \/>\n00:09:39,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:43,200<br \/>\ntogether, we&#8217;re going to see how<br \/>\nJudah unwillingly falls into the<\/p>\n<p>134<br \/>\n00:09:43,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:46,480<br \/>\npit of resentment.<br \/>\nAnd our last 1 1\/2 studies, <\/p>\n<p>135<br \/>\n00:09:46,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:50,040<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re going to see how God lifts<br \/>\nhim out of that pit and restores<\/p>\n<p>136<br \/>\n00:09:50,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:52,880<br \/>\nhim.<br \/>\nSo for today&#8217;s class, we&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>137<br \/>\n00:09:52,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:56,280<br \/>\ngoing to look at where Judah&#8217;s<br \/>\nresentment originated, and we&#8217;ll<\/p>\n<p>138<br \/>\n00:09:56,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:59,200<br \/>\nconclude with some thoughts<br \/>\nabout how the process of <\/p>\n<p>139<br \/>\n00:09:59,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:02,200<br \/>\nresentment works within us, if<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s OK, brothers and sisters.<\/p>\n<p>140<br \/>\n00:10:03,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:09,320<br \/>\nNow Judah was born the fourth<br \/>\nson of Jacob by his mother Leia.<\/p>\n<p>141<br \/>\n00:10:09,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:14,120<br \/>\nHis name means praise and upon<br \/>\nhis birth his mother says in <\/p>\n<p>142<br \/>\n00:10:14,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:20,800<br \/>\nGenesis 29 and verse 35, his<br \/>\nmother says, now I will praise <\/p>\n<p>143<br \/>\n00:10:20,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:23,880<br \/>\nthe Lord.<br \/>\nTherefore she called his name <\/p>\n<p>144<br \/>\n00:10:23,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:27,600<br \/>\nJudah and left bearing.<br \/>\nNow, perhaps more than anything,<\/p>\n<p>145<br \/>\n00:10:27,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:31,960<br \/>\nI think this speaks to the<br \/>\ncharacter of Leah, a woman that <\/p>\n<p>146<br \/>\n00:10:31,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:34,280<br \/>\ncalled on God&#8217;s memorial name<br \/>\nand praise. <\/p>\n<p>147<br \/>\n00:10:34,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:37,720<br \/>\nI mean, she goes from seeking<br \/>\nthe praise and approval of her <\/p>\n<p>148<br \/>\n00:10:37,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:40,840<br \/>\nhusband.<br \/>\nRemember she called Levi Levi <\/p>\n<p>149<br \/>\n00:10:40,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:43,880<br \/>\nbecause she&#8217;s saying, now my<br \/>\nhusband will be joined unto me. <\/p>\n<p>150<br \/>\n00:10:44,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:48,000<br \/>\nShe&#8217;s seeking what she&#8217;s seeking<br \/>\nthe approval and affections of <\/p>\n<p>151<br \/>\n00:10:48,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:50,680<br \/>\nher husband.<br \/>\nAnd now with with, with Judah, <\/p>\n<p>152<br \/>\n00:10:50,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:55,000<br \/>\nshe&#8217;s she&#8217;s calling on God&#8217;s<br \/>\nname and praise and she appears <\/p>\n<p>153<br \/>\n00:10:55,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:58,280<br \/>\nto have adopted the God of Jacob<br \/>\nas her own. <\/p>\n<p>154<br \/>\n00:11:00,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:03,000<br \/>\nBut, but Jacob doesn&#8217;t see her<br \/>\nin this light. <\/p>\n<p>155<br \/>\n00:11:03,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:08,840<br \/>\nSo perhaps blinded by Rachel&#8217;s<br \/>\nbeauty or being deceived, angry,<\/p>\n<p>156<br \/>\n00:11:08,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:12,680<br \/>\nbeing deceived at Laban<br \/>\nScripture uses really strong <\/p>\n<p>157<br \/>\n00:11:12,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:17,000<br \/>\nlanguage to describe the state<br \/>\nof Leah in this household. <\/p>\n<p>158<br \/>\n00:11:17,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:21,800<br \/>\nAnd turn with me to Genesis<br \/>\nchapter 29 and we&#8217;re going to <\/p>\n<p>159<br \/>\n00:11:21,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:32,120<br \/>\nlook at this verses 30 and 31.<br \/>\nAnd it says there Jacob went in <\/p>\n<p>160<br \/>\n00:11:32,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:37,440<br \/>\nunto Rachel, and he loved also<br \/>\nRachel more than Leah, and <\/p>\n<p>161<br \/>\n00:11:37,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:40,280<br \/>\nserved with him yet seven other<br \/>\nyears. <\/p>\n<p>162<br \/>\n00:11:41,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:47,120<br \/>\nAnd the Lord saw that Leah was<br \/>\nhated, and he opened her womb, <\/p>\n<p>163<br \/>\n00:11:47,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:52,720<br \/>\nbut Rachel was barren.<br \/>\nSo Leah was hated and God saw <\/p>\n<p>164<br \/>\n00:11:52,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:55,480<br \/>\nit.<br \/>\nNow we know that Leah was not as<\/p>\n<p>165<br \/>\n00:11:55,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:02,400<br \/>\npretty as her sister, but you<br \/>\nwonder for a moment, what did <\/p>\n<p>166<br \/>\n00:12:02,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:06,760<br \/>\nJudah and his brethren see when<br \/>\nthey looked at Leah? <\/p>\n<p>167<br \/>\n00:12:08,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:10,680<br \/>\nDo you think to them that Leah<br \/>\nwas beautiful? <\/p>\n<p>168<br \/>\n00:12:12,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:15,480<br \/>\nTo me my mother is beautiful.<br \/>\nAnd I thought that before I had <\/p>\n<p>169<br \/>\n00:12:15,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:19,560<br \/>\nany concept of of looks or<br \/>\nattraction. <\/p>\n<p>170<br \/>\n00:12:19,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:22,320<br \/>\nYou know, a mother is beautiful<br \/>\nbecause of the way she loves her<\/p>\n<p>171<br \/>\n00:12:22,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:26,760<br \/>\nchild.<br \/>\nYou know the, the way a child is<\/p>\n<p>172<br \/>\n00:12:26,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:29,520<br \/>\nloved by a it&#8217;s, it&#8217;s different<br \/>\nthan any love a man ever <\/p>\n<p>173<br \/>\n00:12:29,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:31,560<br \/>\nreceives in any other part of<br \/>\nhis life. <\/p>\n<p>174<br \/>\n00:12:32,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:34,160<br \/>\nListen, wives, you know you<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t love us the way our <\/p>\n<p>175<br \/>\n00:12:34,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:38,000<br \/>\nmothers did.<br \/>\nYou know we still, you know you <\/p>\n<p>176<br \/>\n00:12:38,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:41,600<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t, right?<br \/>\nAnd for a while, we resented you<\/p>\n<p>177<br \/>\n00:12:41,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:46,840<br \/>\nfor it, right?<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a special type of love <\/p>\n<p>178<br \/>\n00:12:46,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:50,600<br \/>\nbecause it is just like, you<br \/>\nknow, I could, I listen, my, <\/p>\n<p>179<br \/>\n00:12:50,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:53,960<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve done a lot of bad things<br \/>\nand my mom defended me for most <\/p>\n<p>180<br \/>\n00:12:53,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:55,600<br \/>\nof them.<br \/>\nYou know, my wife doesn&#8217;t do <\/p>\n<p>181<br \/>\n00:12:55,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:59,840<br \/>\nthat, right?<br \/>\nAnd it&#8217;s a special thing, you <\/p>\n<p>182<br \/>\n00:12:59,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:03,520<br \/>\nknow?<br \/>\nSo, so you know, Can you <\/p>\n<p>183<br \/>\n00:13:03,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:06,720<br \/>\nimagine?<br \/>\nI just want you to imagine Judah<\/p>\n<p>184<br \/>\n00:13:06,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:11,280<br \/>\nnot being able to understand<br \/>\nJacob&#8217;s disposition towards his <\/p>\n<p>185<br \/>\n00:13:11,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:15,320<br \/>\nmother that that although she<br \/>\nwas devoted to the chores and <\/p>\n<p>186<br \/>\n00:13:15,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:19,920<br \/>\nrequirements of the household,<br \/>\nthat she was clearly second <\/p>\n<p>187<br \/>\n00:13:19,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:22,640<br \/>\nbest.<br \/>\nNow have you ever seen your <\/p>\n<p>188<br \/>\n00:13:22,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:26,200<br \/>\nmother cry?<br \/>\nDid you want to save her? <\/p>\n<p>189<br \/>\n00:13:26,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:33,200<br \/>\nDo you want to rescue her?<br \/>\nSo how was Judah understand that<\/p>\n<p>190<br \/>\n00:13:33,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:35,400<br \/>\nall his mother was faithful and<br \/>\nshe loved the Lord and she <\/p>\n<p>191<br \/>\n00:13:35,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:39,080<br \/>\ndevoted herself to the family?<br \/>\nThat all she got was constant <\/p>\n<p>192<br \/>\n00:13:39,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:43,080<br \/>\nheartache being a a distant<br \/>\nsecond in her husband&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>193<br \/>\n00:13:43,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:44,960<br \/>\naffections.<br \/>\nYou know there&#8217;s no justice in <\/p>\n<p>194<br \/>\n00:13:44,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:49,600<br \/>\nit.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s no right in it See <\/p>\n<p>195<br \/>\n00:13:49,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:54,800<br \/>\nresentment.<br \/>\nIt typically stems from a real <\/p>\n<p>196<br \/>\n00:13:54,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:00,400<br \/>\nor perceived injustice and I<br \/>\nthink this is where the seeds of<\/p>\n<p>197<br \/>\n00:14:01,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:06,240<br \/>\nJews resentment come from.<br \/>\nI, I try, I scanned the web to <\/p>\n<p>198<br \/>\n00:14:06,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:11,720<br \/>\nfind a, a, a picture that could<br \/>\ncapture the essence of what <\/p>\n<p>199<br \/>\n00:14:11,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:15,800<br \/>\ninjustice feels like.<br \/>\nAnd I think you&#8217;re going to, I <\/p>\n<p>200<br \/>\n00:14:15,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:18,040<br \/>\nthink you&#8217;re going to sympathize<br \/>\nwith this picture. <\/p>\n<p>201<br \/>\n00:14:18,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:22,960<br \/>\nYou know what?<br \/>\nWhat do you think? <\/p>\n<p>202<br \/>\n00:14:23,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:26,080<br \/>\nRight?<br \/>\nI mean, clearly resentment is <\/p>\n<p>203<br \/>\n00:14:26,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:29,560<br \/>\nnot a problem only for adults is<br \/>\nwhat that tells you right away, <\/p>\n<p>204<br \/>\n00:14:29,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:35,920<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nSo, but, but more to the point, <\/p>\n<p>205<br \/>\n00:14:37,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:41,760<br \/>\nat what age you think that that<br \/>\nJudah and his brethren began to <\/p>\n<p>206<br \/>\n00:14:41,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:44,240<br \/>\nrealize that Leah was not the<br \/>\nonly victim of Jacob&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>207<br \/>\n00:14:44,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:48,240<br \/>\nfavoritism?<br \/>\nAt what age did he suspect that <\/p>\n<p>208<br \/>\n00:14:48,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:51,400<br \/>\nJacob&#8217;s favoritism, it carried<br \/>\nover to the next generation? <\/p>\n<p>209<br \/>\n00:14:52,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:54,720<br \/>\nYou know, suspicions would have<br \/>\nstarted young, but they would <\/p>\n<p>210<br \/>\n00:14:54,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:56,200<br \/>\nhave been confirmed in<br \/>\nadolescence. <\/p>\n<p>211<br \/>\n00:14:56,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:58,360<br \/>\nAnd I tell you the point in<br \/>\nwhich they were crystallized. <\/p>\n<p>212<br \/>\n00:14:58,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:02,560<br \/>\nTurn with me over to Genesis<br \/>\nchapter 33, verses 1 and 2, <\/p>\n<p>213<br \/>\n00:15:03,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:08,800<br \/>\nwhere these suspicions and<br \/>\nconcerns were crystallized in in<\/p>\n<p>214<br \/>\n00:15:08,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:13,120<br \/>\nthe young mind of Judah.<br \/>\nGenesis chapter 33 and turning <\/p>\n<p>215<br \/>\n00:15:13,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:17,200<br \/>\nin at verse one.<br \/>\nAnd Jacob lifted up his eyes and<\/p>\n<p>216<br \/>\n00:15:17,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:21,760<br \/>\nlooked, And behold, Esau came,<br \/>\nand with him 400 men. <\/p>\n<p>217<br \/>\n00:15:22,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:25,040<br \/>\nAnd he divided the children unto<br \/>\nLeah, and unto Rachel, and unto <\/p>\n<p>218<br \/>\n00:15:25,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:28,000<br \/>\nthe two handmaids.<br \/>\nAnd he put the handmaids and <\/p>\n<p>219<br \/>\n00:15:28,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:32,840<br \/>\ntheir children foremost, and<br \/>\nLeah and her children after, and<\/p>\n<p>220<br \/>\n00:15:32,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:37,440<br \/>\nRachel and Joseph hindmost.<br \/>\nIt doesn&#8217;t take any kind of <\/p>\n<p>221<br \/>\n00:15:37,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:40,880<br \/>\ndegree in military strategy to<br \/>\nunderstand Jacob&#8217;s intentions <\/p>\n<p>222<br \/>\n00:15:40,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:42,920<br \/>\nhere.<br \/>\nYou can imagine Judah looking at<\/p>\n<p>223<br \/>\n00:15:42,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:49,000<br \/>\nthe situation and realizing to<br \/>\nhimself, wow, if someone has to <\/p>\n<p>224<br \/>\n00:15:49,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:54,840<br \/>\ndie, my father would prefer it<br \/>\nwas me, my brethren and my <\/p>\n<p>225<br \/>\n00:15:54,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:03,040<br \/>\nmother before Rachel and Joseph.<br \/>\nYou know, at this point he would<\/p>\n<p>226<br \/>\n00:16:03,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:08,600<br \/>\nbecome hyper aware of Joseph.<br \/>\nHe would he would look for any <\/p>\n<p>227<br \/>\n00:16:08,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:12,840<br \/>\nevidence of special treatment<br \/>\nand there was evidence of <\/p>\n<p>228<br \/>\n00:16:12,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:15,680<br \/>\nspecial treatment.<br \/>\nAnd when he found it, he would <\/p>\n<p>229<br \/>\n00:16:15,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:19,160<br \/>\nwince in pain because his worst<br \/>\nfears were being realized. <\/p>\n<p>230<br \/>\n00:16:20,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:26,000<br \/>\nSee, deep inside every child you<br \/>\nknow, this is a deep desire to <\/p>\n<p>231<br \/>\n00:16:26,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:32,520<br \/>\nbe loved because love fills an<br \/>\nunconscious and deep need for <\/p>\n<p>232<br \/>\n00:16:32,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:37,040<br \/>\nsecurity.<br \/>\nChildren feel safe when they&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>233<br \/>\n00:16:37,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:41,040<br \/>\nloved because their existence<br \/>\ndepends on the unselfish love of<\/p>\n<p>234<br \/>\n00:16:41,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:43,680<br \/>\ntheir parents.<br \/>\nSo if parental love is <\/p>\n<p>235<br \/>\n00:16:43,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:49,200<br \/>\nthreatened in any way, real or<br \/>\nperceived, you&#8217;re going to feel <\/p>\n<p>236<br \/>\n00:16:49,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:52,040<br \/>\nit instantly.<br \/>\nYou&#8217;re going to feel it deeply. <\/p>\n<p>237<br \/>\n00:16:53,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:57,120<br \/>\nAnd in Judah&#8217;s case, resentment<br \/>\nis not born out of perceived <\/p>\n<p>238<br \/>\n00:16:57,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:01,040<br \/>\ninjustice, but injustice<br \/>\nregarding a deep and instinctual<\/p>\n<p>239<br \/>\n00:17:01,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:05,680<br \/>\nneed for security.<br \/>\nAnd what greater security can <\/p>\n<p>240<br \/>\n00:17:05,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:09,720<br \/>\nyou have than when being<br \/>\nthreatened by an enemy that your<\/p>\n<p>241<br \/>\n00:17:09,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:11,640<br \/>\nfather&#8217;s terrified is going to<br \/>\nkill you? <\/p>\n<p>242<br \/>\n00:17:15,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:18,720<br \/>\nSo in Genesis 37, as Jacob&#8217;s<br \/>\nsons grow in strength and <\/p>\n<p>243<br \/>\n00:17:18,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:22,119<br \/>\nindependence, their insecurity<br \/>\nand pain is transformed into <\/p>\n<p>244<br \/>\n00:17:22,119 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:25,280<br \/>\nanother feeling, and that&#8217;s<br \/>\ndescribed to us in the Bible as <\/p>\n<p>245<br \/>\n00:17:25,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:27,760<br \/>\nhatred.<br \/>\nAnd turn over to Genesis chapter<\/p>\n<p>246<br \/>\n00:17:27,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:32,120<br \/>\n37 now, and we&#8217;re going to look<br \/>\nat verses 3:00 to 4:00. <\/p>\n<p>247<br \/>\n00:17:33,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:38,200<br \/>\nNow Israel loved Joseph more<br \/>\nthan all his children because he<\/p>\n<p>248<br \/>\n00:17:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:41,680<br \/>\nwas the son of his old age and<br \/>\nhe made him a coat of many <\/p>\n<p>249<br \/>\n00:17:41,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:44,600<br \/>\ncolors.<br \/>\nWhen his brethren saw that their<\/p>\n<p>250<br \/>\n00:17:44,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:50,640<br \/>\nfather loved Joseph more than<br \/>\nall his brethren, they hated <\/p>\n<p>251<br \/>\n00:17:50,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:54,080<br \/>\nJoseph and could not speak<br \/>\npeaceably unto him. <\/p>\n<p>252<br \/>\n00:17:54,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:58,400<br \/>\nYou know, we learned more about<br \/>\nthe brother&#8217;s feelings in verses<\/p>\n<p>253<br \/>\n00:17:58,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:02,320<br \/>\n8:00 and 11:00.<br \/>\nIn verse 8 we read, And the <\/p>\n<p>254<br \/>\n00:18:02,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:06,280<br \/>\nbrethren said unto Joseph, Shalt<br \/>\nthou indeed reign over us, or <\/p>\n<p>255<br \/>\n00:18:06,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:08,440<br \/>\nshalt thou indeed have dominion<br \/>\nover us? <\/p>\n<p>256<br \/>\n00:18:08,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:12,880<br \/>\nAnd they hated him yet more for<br \/>\nhis dreams and for his words. <\/p>\n<p>257<br \/>\n00:18:13,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:17,440<br \/>\nAnd in verse 11 we read, And the<br \/>\nbrethren envied him, but his <\/p>\n<p>258<br \/>\n00:18:17,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:21,680<br \/>\nfather observed the saying.<br \/>\nSo here we come to one of the <\/p>\n<p>259<br \/>\n00:18:21,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:23,360<br \/>\ninevitable outcomes of<br \/>\nresentment. <\/p>\n<p>260<br \/>\n00:18:23,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:26,520<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going to describe to you 3<br \/>\ninevitable symptoms of <\/p>\n<p>261<br \/>\n00:18:26,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:28,840<br \/>\nresentment.<br \/>\nSometimes you don&#8217;t know if you <\/p>\n<p>262<br \/>\n00:18:28,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:32,160<br \/>\nhave resentment, but you can see<br \/>\nthe symptoms and one of the <\/p>\n<p>263<br \/>\n00:18:32,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:35,600<br \/>\nsymptoms of resentment is<br \/>\ndisplaced anger. <\/p>\n<p>264<br \/>\n00:18:35,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:39,680<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a displaced anger is a is a<br \/>\nnew term for an old idea. <\/p>\n<p>265<br \/>\n00:18:40,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:44,840<br \/>\nIt occurs when, with, when, who<br \/>\nor what you&#8217;re venting your <\/p>\n<p>266<br \/>\n00:18:44,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:47,640<br \/>\nanger at is not ultimately the<br \/>\nsource of your anger. <\/p>\n<p>267<br \/>\n00:18:48,640 &#8211;&gt;

00:20:51,840<br \/>\nthe two attitudes that Judah and<br \/>\nhis brethren demonstrate towards<\/p>\n<p>302<br \/>\n00:20:51,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:54,880<br \/>\nJoseph we&#8217;re we&#8217;re told there in<br \/>\nchapter 37, there are two things<\/p>\n<p>303<br \/>\n00:20:54,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:58,360<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re told.<br \/>\nOne is hate and the other is <\/p>\n<p>304<br \/>\n00:20:58,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:02,720<br \/>\nenvy.<br \/>\nNow it&#8217;s probably not <\/p>\n<p>305<br \/>\n00:21:02,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:08,200<br \/>\ncoincidence that these are the<br \/>\nthe exact 2 attitudes that Judah<\/p>\n<p>306<br \/>\n00:21:08,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:11,040<br \/>\nwould experience growing up,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>307<br \/>\n00:21:11,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:14,520<br \/>\nWe already read about hate,<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t we, when which says that <\/p>\n<p>308<br \/>\n00:21:14,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:17,120<br \/>\nLeah was hated and and so God<br \/>\nopened her womb. <\/p>\n<p>309<br \/>\n00:21:17,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:20,920<br \/>\nBut what about envy?<br \/>\nWe read about envy in Genesis <\/p>\n<p>310<br \/>\n00:21:20,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:25,160<br \/>\nchapter 30 verse one.<br \/>\nWe read there and Rachel saw <\/p>\n<p>311<br \/>\n00:21:25,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:30,360<br \/>\nthat she bared Jacob no children<br \/>\nand Rachel envied her sister and<\/p>\n<p>312<br \/>\n00:21:30,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:32,600<br \/>\nsaid to Jacob give me children<br \/>\nelse I die. <\/p>\n<p>313<br \/>\n00:21:33,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:36,560<br \/>\nSo what this table shows is is<br \/>\nwhat what Judah learned as a <\/p>\n<p>314<br \/>\n00:21:36,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:40,680<br \/>\nchild.<br \/>\nHe learned envy and he saw <\/p>\n<p>315<br \/>\n00:21:40,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:44,760<br \/>\nhatred.<br \/>\nWell, it just so happens that <\/p>\n<p>316<br \/>\n00:21:44,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:46,240<br \/>\nwhat does he act out as an<br \/>\nadult? <\/p>\n<p>317<br \/>\n00:21:48,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:51,680<br \/>\nHis brethren envied him and they<br \/>\nhated him. <\/p>\n<p>318<br \/>\n00:21:55,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:02,280<br \/>\nWe can observe this irony.<br \/>\nHurt people seem to hurt people <\/p>\n<p>319<br \/>\n00:22:03,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:08,000<br \/>\nthe way they were hurt.<br \/>\nJust observe that for a moment. <\/p>\n<p>320<br \/>\n00:22:08,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:09,480<br \/>\nDo you see that to be true in<br \/>\nyourself? <\/p>\n<p>321<br \/>\n00:22:10,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:17,320<br \/>\nHurt people seem to hurt people<br \/>\noften the way they were hurt. <\/p>\n<p>322<br \/>\n00:22:17,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:20,040<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll give you a obvious example<br \/>\nright there from Genesis. <\/p>\n<p>323<br \/>\n00:22:22,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:26,880<br \/>\nYou think Jacob liked it that<br \/>\nIsaac seemed to favor Esau over <\/p>\n<p>324<br \/>\n00:22:26,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:29,400<br \/>\nhim.<br \/>\nYou think he liked that kind of <\/p>\n<p>325<br \/>\n00:22:29,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:32,520<br \/>\nfavoritism, But what does he do<br \/>\nto his kids? <\/p>\n<p>326<br \/>\n00:22:34,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:38,000<br \/>\nHurt people seem to hurt people<br \/>\noften the way they&#8217;ve been hurt.<\/p>\n<p>327<br \/>\n00:22:39,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:43,040<br \/>\nSo the point here is that is<br \/>\nthat Judas suffered in a home <\/p>\n<p>328<br \/>\n00:22:43,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:45,640<br \/>\nfull of of what?<br \/>\nTwo things, hatred and envy. <\/p>\n<p>329<br \/>\n00:22:46,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:48,600<br \/>\nAnd he does the same.<br \/>\nAnd that takes us to a second <\/p>\n<p>330<br \/>\n00:22:48,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:52,680<br \/>\nsymptom of resentment, which is,<br \/>\nwhich is modeling. <\/p>\n<p>331<br \/>\n00:22:55,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:58,120<br \/>\nJudah models the behaviors that<br \/>\nhurt him. <\/p>\n<p>332<br \/>\n00:22:59,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:01,360<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not that Judas set out to<br \/>\nbe hypocrite. <\/p>\n<p>333<br \/>\n00:23:01,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:05,240<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s just that modeling is<br \/>\nunfortunately a common outcome <\/p>\n<p>334<br \/>\n00:23:05,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:11,520<br \/>\nof resentment.<br \/>\nSee this word envy in Genesis <\/p>\n<p>335<br \/>\n00:23:11,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:14,760<br \/>\n37, verse 11.<br \/>\nThis, this is an interesting <\/p>\n<p>336<br \/>\n00:23:14,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:19,840<br \/>\nword, right?<br \/>\nIt, it&#8217;s the word kana QANA <\/p>\n<p>337<br \/>\n00:23:19,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:24,560<br \/>\nkana, right?<br \/>\nAnd it, it drives from an Arabic<\/p>\n<p>338<br \/>\n00:23:24,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:29,600<br \/>\nword which means to become very<br \/>\nred, right? <\/p>\n<p>339<br \/>\n00:23:30,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:37,960<br \/>\nAnd and it&#8217;s meaning is to burn<br \/>\nwith zeal for any purpose or <\/p>\n<p>340<br \/>\n00:23:37,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:43,000<br \/>\nanything to excite to jealousy.<br \/>\nNo, this, this is it wasn&#8217;t like<\/p>\n<p>341<br \/>\n00:23:43,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:46,840<br \/>\nenvy going Oh yeah, I like her<br \/>\nsweater. <\/p>\n<p>342<br \/>\n00:23:47,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:49,200<br \/>\nI&#8217;d look better in that sweater<br \/>\nthan she would. <\/p>\n<p>343<br \/>\n00:23:50,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:55,200<br \/>\nNot that I&#8217;ll tell her yet.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not that kind of envy, <\/p>\n<p>344<br \/>\n00:23:55,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:57,640<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nThis is this is this is in the, <\/p>\n<p>345<br \/>\n00:23:57,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:00,600<br \/>\nthis is in the depths of your,<br \/>\nyou know, your stomach&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>346<br \/>\n00:24:00,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:05,520<br \/>\nburning, right?<br \/>\nThey become very red for a thing<\/p>\n<p>347<br \/>\n00:24:05,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:08,920<br \/>\nlike your, your facial<br \/>\ncomplexion is starting to change<\/p>\n<p>348<br \/>\n00:24:08,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:13,400<br \/>\ncolor, right?<br \/>\nBecause in, in with in your <\/p>\n<p>349<br \/>\n00:24:13,400 &#8211;&gt;

00:25:13,720<br \/>\nWhat do you tell me?<br \/>\nHow do you speak peace when <\/p>\n<p>366<br \/>\n00:25:13,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:17,920<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re not feeling any peace?<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s no peace in Khanna. <\/p>\n<p>367<br \/>\n00:25:19,240 &#8211;&gt;

00:25:34,280<br \/>\nThey&#8217;re fuelled by insecurity.<br \/>\nThey feel a deep sense of <\/p>\n<p>370<br \/>\n00:25:34,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:38,880<br \/>\ninjustice.<br \/>\nAnd when you have envy deeply <\/p>\n<p>371<br \/>\n00:25:38,880 &#8211;&gt;

00:26:09,880<br \/>\ninner man?<br \/>\nIn this situation, Judah and his<\/p>\n<p>378<br \/>\n00:26:09,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:12,040<br \/>\nbrethren can&#8217;t help but lash out<br \/>\nof their brother. <\/p>\n<p>379<br \/>\n00:26:14,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:18,320<br \/>\nAs we know the brothers anger<br \/>\nand resentment was exacerbated <\/p>\n<p>380<br \/>\n00:26:18,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:20,480<br \/>\nby Joseph&#8217;s dreams.<br \/>\nAnd the brothers say to Joseph <\/p>\n<p>381<br \/>\n00:26:20,480 &#8211;&gt;

00:28:07,040<br \/>\npeople are doing enough<br \/>\nannoying, aggravating and <\/p>\n<p>404<br \/>\n00:28:07,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:09,880<br \/>\nhurtful things, then your bad<br \/>\nattitude is justified. <\/p>\n<p>405<br \/>\n00:28:12,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:15,920<br \/>\nSo you&#8217;re looking for any shred<br \/>\nof evidence you can that makes <\/p>\n<p>406<br \/>\n00:28:15,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:21,080<br \/>\nthe inside feel right.<br \/>\nAnd what&#8217;s the only answer when <\/p>\n<p>407<br \/>\n00:28:21,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:25,760<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re like that?<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going for a run. <\/p>\n<p>408<br \/>\n00:28:28,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:31,880<br \/>\nYou take a shower.<br \/>\nAll right, I&#8217;ll see you when I <\/p>\n<p>409<br \/>\n00:28:31,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:33,600<br \/>\nget back.<br \/>\nBecause we&#8217;re not going to have <\/p>\n<p>410<br \/>\n00:28:33,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:35,360<br \/>\na constructive conversation<br \/>\nright now. <\/p>\n<p>411<br \/>\n00:28:41,180 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:45,260<br \/>\nAnd so and so the brothers, they<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t hear Joseph&#8217;s dream, is my<\/p>\n<p>412<br \/>\n00:28:45,260 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:47,100<br \/>\npoint.<br \/>\nThey don&#8217;t hear it. <\/p>\n<p>413<br \/>\n00:28:47,980 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:50,540<br \/>\nThey don&#8217;t consider the matter<br \/>\nlike Jacob did. <\/p>\n<p>414<br \/>\n00:28:50,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:53,800<br \/>\nAnd and light of their<br \/>\nresentments and hurts, they <\/p>\n<p>415<br \/>\n00:28:53,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:57,680<br \/>\nunconsciously judge the dreams<br \/>\nin the worst possible light. <\/p>\n<p>416<br \/>\n00:28:57,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:02,240<br \/>\nNow the judgement was to hate<br \/>\nhim yet more for his dreams. <\/p>\n<p>417<br \/>\n00:29:03,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:09,040<br \/>\nYet here&#8217;s the irony.<br \/>\nJoseph&#8217;s dreams did not foretell<\/p>\n<p>418<br \/>\n00:29:09,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:13,480<br \/>\ntheir harm, but their good.<br \/>\nNow consider the matter from <\/p>\n<p>419<br \/>\n00:29:13,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:16,120<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s point of view.<br \/>\nWhat was God accomplishing <\/p>\n<p>420<br \/>\n00:29:16,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:17,840<br \/>\nthrough that dream?<br \/>\nDo you know, we don&#8217;t have to <\/p>\n<p>421<br \/>\n00:29:17,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:22,600<br \/>\nguess because the scriptures,<br \/>\nthey give us the example of what<\/p>\n<p>422<br \/>\n00:29:22,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:26,240<br \/>\nGod had in mind in the dream.<br \/>\nWe, we go to one of those really<\/p>\n<p>423<br \/>\n00:29:26,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:29,840<br \/>\nuseful chapters, Psalm 105,<br \/>\nwhere, where the psalmist is <\/p>\n<p>424<br \/>\n00:29:29,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:33,360<br \/>\ngiving a retelling of the, of<br \/>\nthe history of Israel to the <\/p>\n<p>425<br \/>\n00:29:33,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:36,280<br \/>\npeople and in a, in a poem and<br \/>\nsong, so they will remember <\/p>\n<p>426<br \/>\n00:29:36,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:39,360<br \/>\ntheir own history.<br \/>\nAnd, and the psalmist interprets<\/p>\n<p>427<br \/>\n00:29:39,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:42,040<br \/>\nwhat&#8217;s going on here.<br \/>\nAnd we read this in Psalm one O <\/p>\n<p>428<br \/>\n00:29:42,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:48,040<br \/>\n5, verses 20 and 21 and skipping<br \/>\nto verse 24, it says there the <\/p>\n<p>429<br \/>\n00:29:48,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:51,920<br \/>\nking being Pharaoh loosed him,<br \/>\nmeaning Joseph, the key. <\/p>\n<p>430<br \/>\n00:29:51,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:55,960<br \/>\nThe Pharaoh loosed Joseph, even<br \/>\nthe ruler of the people and let <\/p>\n<p>431<br \/>\n00:29:55,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:59,280<br \/>\nhim go free.<br \/>\nHe made him Lord of his house <\/p>\n<p>432<br \/>\n00:29:59,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:00,800<br \/>\nand ruler of his all his<br \/>\nsubstance. <\/p>\n<p>433<br \/>\n00:30:00,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:03,000<br \/>\nSo that&#8217;s the, that&#8217;s the<br \/>\nfulfillment of that dream, is it<\/p>\n<p>434<br \/>\n00:30:03,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:05,760<br \/>\nnot?<br \/>\nAnd then verse 24 says this. <\/p>\n<p>435<br \/>\n00:30:06,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:10,840<br \/>\nAnd he increased his people<br \/>\ngreatly and made them stronger <\/p>\n<p>436<br \/>\n00:30:10,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:14,520<br \/>\nthan their enemies.<br \/>\nDid it ever cross Joseph&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>437<br \/>\n00:30:14,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:18,560<br \/>\nbrothers minds at all?<br \/>\nThat maybe, just maybe their <\/p>\n<p>438<br \/>\n00:30:18,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:20,400<br \/>\nbrother reigning over them was a<br \/>\ngood thing? <\/p>\n<p>439<br \/>\n00:30:23,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:25,360<br \/>\nThat God was doing it for a<br \/>\npurpose? <\/p>\n<p>440<br \/>\n00:30:27,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:29,240<br \/>\nThat Joseph, whose name means<br \/>\nwhat? <\/p>\n<p>441<br \/>\n00:30:31,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:38,120<br \/>\nThe increaser, right, that God<br \/>\nmight be using Joseph to <\/p>\n<p>442<br \/>\n00:30:38,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:42,880<br \/>\nincrease his people to make them<br \/>\nstronger than their enemies. <\/p>\n<p>443<br \/>\n00:30:44,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:48,400<br \/>\nYou see one another symptom of<br \/>\nresentment is a complete lack of<\/p>\n<p>444<br \/>\n00:30:48,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:52,600<br \/>\noptimism, right?<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s skewed judgement. <\/p>\n<p>445<br \/>\n00:30:52,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:57,800<br \/>\nYou are interpreting information<br \/>\npessimistically based on <\/p>\n<p>446<br \/>\n00:30:57,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:00,120<br \/>\nfeelings.<br \/>\nIn this case, the brothers were <\/p>\n<p>447<br \/>\n00:31:00,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:02,920<br \/>\nsaying that that Joseph would<br \/>\nnever reign over them wrong. <\/p>\n<p>448<br \/>\n00:31:03,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:06,840<br \/>\nAnd then they said they thought,<br \/>\nthey thought that if he did run <\/p>\n<p>449<br \/>\n00:31:06,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:10,400<br \/>\nover them, it&#8217;d be bad for them.<br \/>\nWrong again. <\/p>\n<p>450<br \/>\n00:31:12,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:16,920<br \/>\nBut their minds interpret and<br \/>\nrespond to their pessimistic <\/p>\n<p>451<br \/>\n00:31:16,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:19,120<br \/>\nassumptions about the future as<br \/>\nif they were fact. <\/p>\n<p>452<br \/>\n00:31:19,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:20,800<br \/>\nIn fact.<br \/>\nI want to, I want to outline <\/p>\n<p>453<br \/>\n00:31:20,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:25,360<br \/>\nthis because this is so<br \/>\nimportant, how this process <\/p>\n<p>454<br \/>\n00:31:25,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:30,000<br \/>\nworks to create sin within us.<br \/>\nOK, as I, as I go through this, <\/p>\n<p>455<br \/>\n00:31:30,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:32,920<br \/>\nI wrote, I wrote this out of my<br \/>\nown personal experience and <\/p>\n<p>456<br \/>\n00:31:32,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:35,480<br \/>\nmaybe this relates to you too.<br \/>\nI think, I think we&#8217;re made of <\/p>\n<p>457<br \/>\n00:31:35,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:39,160<br \/>\nthe same stuff.<br \/>\nSo probably here&#8217;s how it works <\/p>\n<p>458<br \/>\n00:31:39,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:40,680<br \/>\nin the mind of a resentful<br \/>\nperson. <\/p>\n<p>459<br \/>\n00:31:41,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:44,400<br \/>\nThey take limited information.<br \/>\nIn this case, the brothers took <\/p>\n<p>460<br \/>\n00:31:44,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:48,200<br \/>\nJoseph&#8217;s retelling of the dream.<br \/>\nThey take limited information, <\/p>\n<p>461<br \/>\n00:31:48,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:53,000<br \/>\nyes, but then we interpret that<br \/>\nin the worst way possible. <\/p>\n<p>462<br \/>\n00:31:54,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:59,640<br \/>\nAnd then we make pessimistic<br \/>\nassumptions based on our <\/p>\n<p>463<br \/>\n00:31:59,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:03,160<br \/>\ninterpretation.<br \/>\nSo by the way, assumptions based<\/p>\n<p>464<br \/>\n00:32:03,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:09,320<br \/>\non interpretations, dangerous<br \/>\nthings, then, then what we do <\/p>\n<p>465<br \/>\n00:32:09,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:11,920<br \/>\nnow, that&#8217;s not enough, right?<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s right, right away, you&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>466<br \/>\n00:32:11,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:13,760<br \/>\nin a bad space.<br \/>\nBut no, we go on. <\/p>\n<p>467<br \/>\n00:32:16,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:18,320<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re going to treat those<br \/>\nassumptions as if they&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>468<br \/>\n00:32:18,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:23,840<br \/>\nunbiased facts, and then we&#8217;re<br \/>\ngoing to act accordingly, <\/p>\n<p>469<br \/>\n00:32:24,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:25,800<br \/>\nthinking that we&#8217;re doing what&#8217;s<br \/>\nright. <\/p>\n<p>470<br \/>\n00:32:28,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:35,600<br \/>\nIs this not how it works?<br \/>\nLimited information, interpreted<\/p>\n<p>471<br \/>\n00:32:37,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:41,400<br \/>\nassumptions based on that<br \/>\nlimited information the most <\/p>\n<p>472<br \/>\n00:32:41,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:44,640<br \/>\npessimistic way possible.<br \/>\nBut now I&#8217;m going to act on <\/p>\n<p>473<br \/>\n00:32:44,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:47,640<br \/>\nthose assumptions and I&#8217;m going<br \/>\nto say, well, I&#8217;m totally <\/p>\n<p>474<br \/>\n00:32:47,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:49,040<br \/>\njustified.<br \/>\nWhy? <\/p>\n<p>475<br \/>\n00:32:49,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:53,680<br \/>\nBecause I&#8217;ve assumed based on<br \/>\ninterpretation that then my mind<\/p>\n<p>476<br \/>\n00:32:53,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:56,000<br \/>\nis pessimistic.<br \/>\nBut you know what? <\/p>\n<p>477<br \/>\n00:32:56,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:00,520<br \/>\nIf I plan for the worst case<br \/>\nscenario, I guess I&#8217;m going to <\/p>\n<p>478<br \/>\n00:33:00,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:06,080<br \/>\nbe all right no matter what.<br \/>\nAnd weren&#8217;t. <\/p>\n<p>479<br \/>\n00:33:06,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:08,640<br \/>\nThis is exactly the process the<br \/>\nbrothers went down as they <\/p>\n<p>480<br \/>\n00:33:08,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:13,720<br \/>\nlooked at Joseph&#8217;s dream.<br \/>\nWhat could make someone act this<\/p>\n<p>481<br \/>\n00:33:13,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:17,720<br \/>\nway with this variety and type<br \/>\nof skewed judgement? <\/p>\n<p>482<br \/>\n00:33:19,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:21,920<br \/>\nResentment.<br \/>\nWhat is resentment? <\/p>\n<p>483<br \/>\n00:33:22,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:26,200<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s feeling again.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s feeling again a real or <\/p>\n<p>484<br \/>\n00:33:26,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:30,920<br \/>\nimagined wrong.<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s explore how resentment <\/p>\n<p>485<br \/>\n00:33:30,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:33,280<br \/>\nhappens and why it&#8217;s so<br \/>\nfundamental to the way that <\/p>\n<p>486<br \/>\n00:33:33,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:36,000<br \/>\nJudah acts.<br \/>\nSo one of the clearest <\/p>\n<p>487<br \/>\n00:33:36,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:39,440<br \/>\ndescriptions that resent we have<br \/>\nin all the Bible is actually <\/p>\n<p>488<br \/>\n00:33:39,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:41,840<br \/>\nfound in First Corinthians<br \/>\nchapter 13, which is not where <\/p>\n<p>489<br \/>\n00:33:41,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:44,440<br \/>\nyou&#8217;d expect to find it.<br \/>\nIs it First Corinthians chapter <\/p>\n<p>490<br \/>\n00:33:44,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:46,920<br \/>\n13 and verse 5?<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going to read this out of <\/p>\n<p>491<br \/>\n00:33:46,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:53,280<br \/>\nthe NIV.<br \/>\nIt says there love does not <\/p>\n<p>492<br \/>\n00:33:53,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:58,000<br \/>\ndishonor others.<br \/>\nIt is not self seeking, it is <\/p>\n<p>493<br \/>\n00:33:58,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:04,720<br \/>\nnot easily angered.<br \/>\nIt keeps no record of wrongs. <\/p>\n<p>494<br \/>\n00:34:05,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:10,280<br \/>\nNow the RSV actually puts here<br \/>\nnext to 1st Corinthians chapter <\/p>\n<p>495<br \/>\n00:34:10,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:13,840<br \/>\n13 verse 5.<br \/>\nThe RSV actually puts in love is<\/p>\n<p>496<br \/>\n00:34:13,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:19,920<br \/>\nnot resentful, but actually the<br \/>\nwords expressed at the NIV are <\/p>\n<p>497<br \/>\n00:34:19,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:23,920<br \/>\nthe better translation.<br \/>\nLove keeps no record of wrongs. <\/p>\n<p>498<br \/>\n00:34:23,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:25,560<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s really what the Greek is<br \/>\ngetting at. <\/p>\n<p>499<br \/>\n00:34:26,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:28,920<br \/>\nBoth, by the way, are better<br \/>\nthan the King James of love <\/p>\n<p>500<br \/>\n00:34:28,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:33,120<br \/>\nthinketh no evil.<br \/>\nOK, now those of us struggle <\/p>\n<p>501<br \/>\n00:34:33,199 &#8211;&gt;

00:35:01,160<br \/>\nto help us even get a a richer<br \/>\nsense of what this word keep a <\/p>\n<p>510<br \/>\n00:35:01,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:05,040<br \/>\nrecord of is about.<br \/>\nNow if you go down a little bit <\/p>\n<p>511<br \/>\n00:35:05,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:07,720<br \/>\nin the chapter, you look at<br \/>\nverse 11 when we read there in <\/p>\n<p>512<br \/>\n00:35:07,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:10,600<br \/>\nverse 11, is this when I was a<br \/>\nchild? <\/p>\n<p>513<br \/>\n00:35:10,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:16,800<br \/>\nI spoke as a child, I thought as<br \/>\na child, I reasoned like a <\/p>\n<p>514<br \/>\n00:35:16,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:21,280<br \/>\nchild.<br \/>\nWhen I became a man, I gave up <\/p>\n<p>515<br \/>\n00:35:21,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:26,520<br \/>\nchildish ways.<br \/>\nSo the word to keep a record of <\/p>\n<p>516<br \/>\n00:35:26,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:32,840<br \/>\nis the same word in verse 11<br \/>\nreasoned when I was a child, I <\/p>\n<p>517<br \/>\n00:35:32,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:38,440<br \/>\ncame when I was a child I kept<br \/>\nrecords like a child is what it <\/p>\n<p>518<br \/>\n00:35:38,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:41,640<br \/>\nactually means.<br \/>\nWhen I was a child, I kept <\/p>\n<p>519<br \/>\n00:35:41,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:46,440<br \/>\nrecords like a child.<br \/>\nNow I don&#8217;t know how your kids <\/p>\n<p>520<br \/>\n00:35:47,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:51,960<br \/>\nkeep records, right?<br \/>\nBut you know how my keep kids <\/p>\n<p>521<br \/>\n00:35:51,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:54,920<br \/>\nkeep records.<br \/>\nNow we have a certain language <\/p>\n<p>522<br \/>\n00:35:54,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:57,240<br \/>\nyou don&#8217;t allow in our house.<br \/>\nDo you have language you don&#8217;t <\/p>\n<p>523<br \/>\n00:35:57,240 &#8211;&gt;

00:36:03,240<br \/>\nWe don&#8217;t allow that word in our<br \/>\nhouse. <\/p>\n<p>526<br \/>\n00:36:03,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:07,520<br \/>\nDo you know what that word is?<br \/>\nWell, let me just put it this <\/p>\n<p>527<br \/>\n00:36:07,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:09,640<br \/>\nway.<br \/>\nWhen you were raising your <\/p>\n<p>528<br \/>\n00:36:09,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:14,200<br \/>\nchildren, what is the number one<br \/>\nthing that they complained you <\/p>\n<p>529<br \/>\n00:36:14,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:15,240<br \/>\nabout?<br \/>\nWhen they come back and they say<\/p>\n<p>530<br \/>\n00:36:15,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:23,040<br \/>\nMommy, mommy, they say it&#8217;s not,<br \/>\nit&#8217;s not fair, right? <\/p>\n<p>531<br \/>\n00:36:23,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:25,400<br \/>\nWe don&#8217;t allow that word.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a naughty word. <\/p>\n<p>532<br \/>\n00:36:26,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:29,160<br \/>\nThat is a naughty word in the<br \/>\nBrinkerhoff household. <\/p>\n<p>533<br \/>\n00:36:30,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:34,800<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s funny, they never seem to<br \/>\nsay that when the when the when <\/p>\n<p>534<br \/>\n00:36:34,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:38,960<br \/>\nthe split is to their advantage.<br \/>\nYou know, I&#8217;m to this day, I&#8217;ve <\/p>\n<p>535<br \/>\n00:36:38,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:42,000<br \/>\nnever heard one of my kids come<br \/>\nup and say, Mommy, mommy, it&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>536<br \/>\n00:36:42,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:43,720<br \/>\nnot fair I got too much ice<br \/>\ncream. <\/p>\n<p>537<br \/>\n00:36:45,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:50,080<br \/>\nYeah, you know, Mommy and Mommy,<br \/>\nit&#8217;s not fair I got a longer, <\/p>\n<p>538<br \/>\n00:36:50,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:53,080<br \/>\nlonger turn on the slide.<br \/>\nYou know that just that never <\/p>\n<p>539<br \/>\n00:36:53,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:58,840<br \/>\nseems to happen that way.<br \/>\nYou know, fundamental to the way<\/p>\n<p>540<br \/>\n00:36:58,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:02,160<br \/>\nthat children reason is that<br \/>\nthey keep records. <\/p>\n<p>541<br \/>\n00:37:02,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:05,320<br \/>\nAdmit it, admit it to yourself.<br \/>\nThose who have children, raise <\/p>\n<p>542<br \/>\n00:37:05,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:07,080<br \/>\nyour hand if your kids kept<br \/>\nrecords. <\/p>\n<p>543<br \/>\n00:37:08,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:09,600<br \/>\nOh, some of you have Angel<br \/>\nchildren. <\/p>\n<p>544<br \/>\n00:37:09,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:11,760<br \/>\nWho has Angel children, right,<br \/>\nright. <\/p>\n<p>545<br \/>\n00:37:13,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:15,200<br \/>\nJonathan, I know better than<br \/>\nthat, right. <\/p>\n<p>546<br \/>\n00:37:18,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:21,040<br \/>\nI, I have something I was going<br \/>\nto say, but I&#8217;m going to keep it<\/p>\n<p>547<br \/>\n00:37:21,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:22,560<br \/>\nright to myself right now.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s right. <\/p>\n<p>548<br \/>\n00:37:23,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:30,360<br \/>\nAll right, self-control, right.<br \/>\nSo, so let me draw a little <\/p>\n<p>549<br \/>\n00:37:30,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:32,520<br \/>\nsketch, right on the not going<br \/>\nto draw. <\/p>\n<p>550<br \/>\n00:37:32,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:34,560<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going to show you a little<br \/>\nsketch about how I think a <\/p>\n<p>551<br \/>\n00:37:34,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:36,400<br \/>\nchild&#8217;s brain probably works,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>552<br \/>\n00:37:37,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:39,400<br \/>\nYou see a seesaw to balance,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>553<br \/>\n00:37:39,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:41,040<br \/>\nBecause everything is a<br \/>\ncomparison. <\/p>\n<p>554<br \/>\n00:37:41,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:44,040<br \/>\nEverything is a balance.<br \/>\nAnd at that middle of the <\/p>\n<p>555<br \/>\n00:37:44,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:45,880<br \/>\nbalance is our perception of<br \/>\nFair. <\/p>\n<p>556<br \/>\n00:37:46,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:49,800<br \/>\nOK, Now as we look at this<br \/>\nsketch, I want to introduce <\/p>\n<p>557<br \/>\n00:37:50,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:52,000<br \/>\nsomething we&#8217;re going to be<br \/>\nreferring to quite a bit in <\/p>\n<p>558<br \/>\n00:37:52,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:55,760<br \/>\nthese studies, which are the<br \/>\nfive selves of sin and the five <\/p>\n<p>559<br \/>\n00:37:55,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:00,000<br \/>\nselves of sin are these.<br \/>\nAnd it begins with self <\/p>\n<p>560<br \/>\n00:38:00,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:05,720<br \/>\nimportance.<br \/>\nNow as self important people, we<\/p>\n<p>561<br \/>\n00:38:05,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:12,960<br \/>\nthink as a default I deserve to<br \/>\nhave or I expect to have just as<\/p>\n<p>562<br \/>\n00:38:12,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:17,600<br \/>\nmuch or a little bit more than<br \/>\nthe next person because by <\/p>\n<p>563<br \/>\n00:38:17,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:22,200<br \/>\ndefinition I&#8217;m self important.<br \/>\nNow thinking this way, this <\/p>\n<p>564<br \/>\n00:38:22,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:25,080<br \/>\nleads to what?<br \/>\nThis leads to being easily hurt.<\/p>\n<p>565<br \/>\n00:38:26,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:29,600<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re always keeping records.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re counting, ensuring that we<\/p>\n<p>566<br \/>\n00:38:29,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:33,160<br \/>\nget everything that we deserve.<br \/>\nAnd occasionally when we&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>567<br \/>\n00:38:33,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:38,720<br \/>\ntreated in the wrong way, our<br \/>\nmood fouls and we get bad <\/p>\n<p>568<br \/>\n00:38:38,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:41,320<br \/>\nfeelings and judgments and<br \/>\ndefensive behaviors. <\/p>\n<p>569<br \/>\n00:38:42,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:46,640<br \/>\nSo when that happens in our<br \/>\nchildish brain, the way we <\/p>\n<p>570<br \/>\n00:38:46,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:51,560<br \/>\nreason as children, what happens<br \/>\nis we add a little, we go back <\/p>\n<p>571<br \/>\n00:38:51,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:53,280<br \/>\nto our balance and we add a<br \/>\nlittle hurt. <\/p>\n<p>572<br \/>\n00:38:54,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:57,080<br \/>\nSo now you can see our balance<br \/>\nis skewed just slightly. <\/p>\n<p>573<br \/>\n00:38:57,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:59,960<br \/>\nYou see it&#8217;s a skewed down that<br \/>\nway because we have a hurt <\/p>\n<p>574<br \/>\n00:38:59,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:02,040<br \/>\nthere, right?<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ve been hurt. <\/p>\n<p>575<br \/>\n00:39:02,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:04,280<br \/>\nI didn&#8217;t get what I was<br \/>\nexpecting to get. <\/p>\n<p>576<br \/>\n00:39:04,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:06,720<br \/>\nI wasn&#8217;t treated the way I was<br \/>\nexpected to be treated. <\/p>\n<p>577<br \/>\n00:39:07,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:11,560<br \/>\nYou know, someone treated me<br \/>\nbadly and I&#8217;m and I&#8217;m hurt about<\/p>\n<p>578<br \/>\n00:39:11,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:13,840<br \/>\nthat.<br \/>\nAnd you go back to the five <\/p>\n<p>579<br \/>\n00:39:13,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:17,600<br \/>\nselves of sin and you go, OK, we<br \/>\nnotice one that comes next. <\/p>\n<p>580<br \/>\n00:39:17,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:21,040<br \/>\nThis is self justification and<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s what we do next. <\/p>\n<p>581<br \/>\n00:39:21,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:25,720<br \/>\nWe, we notice that our little<br \/>\nbalance isn&#8217;t even in our mind. <\/p>\n<p>582<br \/>\n00:39:25,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:31,440<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s just, or it&#8217;s right to just<br \/>\nsay even things out a little <\/p>\n<p>583<br \/>\n00:39:31,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:32,760<br \/>\nbit.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m just going to get even. <\/p>\n<p>584<br \/>\n00:39:32,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:34,880<br \/>\nI&#8217;m just going to even out even<br \/>\nthings out. <\/p>\n<p>585<br \/>\n00:39:35,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:38,960<br \/>\nAnd how do you going to do that?<br \/>\nWell, there&#8217;s myriad ways. <\/p>\n<p>586<br \/>\n00:39:38,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:41,720<br \/>\nYou may, you may speak badly<br \/>\nabout that person. <\/p>\n<p>587<br \/>\n00:39:43,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:45,560<br \/>\nYou may, you may give that<br \/>\nperson a little bit of the <\/p>\n<p>588<br \/>\n00:39:45,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:48,960<br \/>\nsilent treatment, a little bit<br \/>\nof a cold shoulder or, or, or <\/p>\n<p>589<br \/>\n00:39:48,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:52,640<br \/>\nmaybe worse, whatever it is, you<br \/>\njustify it because after all, <\/p>\n<p>590<br \/>\n00:39:53,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:57,400<br \/>\nthey hurt you first and, and,<br \/>\nand your way, you&#8217;re just <\/p>\n<p>591<br \/>\n00:39:57,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:01,680<br \/>\nevening things out a bit.<br \/>\nAnd as you might have guessed, <\/p>\n<p>592<br \/>\n00:40:01,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:05,800<br \/>\nthe words of Christ found in in<br \/>\nMatthew chapter 5, you know, <\/p>\n<p>593<br \/>\n00:40:06,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:08,920<br \/>\nlove your enemies, bless those<br \/>\nthat curse you, do good to them <\/p>\n<p>594<br \/>\n00:40:08,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:11,320<br \/>\nthat hate you and pray for them<br \/>\nthat despitefully use you and <\/p>\n<p>595<br \/>\n00:40:11,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:14,280<br \/>\npersecute you.<br \/>\nThose words don&#8217;t have much <\/p>\n<p>596<br \/>\n00:40:14,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:17,240<br \/>\neffect.<br \/>\nOn the self important, self <\/p>\n<p>597<br \/>\n00:40:17,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:21,400<br \/>\njustifying person.<br \/>\nSo we can see now that <\/p>\n<p>598<br \/>\n00:40:21,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:26,920<br \/>\nresentment or holding on to the<br \/>\noriginal wrong has blinded us. <\/p>\n<p>599<br \/>\n00:40:27,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:34,560<br \/>\nBecause something that&#8217;s wrong<br \/>\nseems right in our eyes because <\/p>\n<p>600<br \/>\n00:40:34,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:37,520<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re the one who&#8217;s doing it.<br \/>\nAnd in our view, the <\/p>\n<p>601<br \/>\n00:40:37,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:43,200<br \/>\ncircumstances called for it.<br \/>\nOf course, in this sense, the <\/p>\n<p>602<br \/>\n00:40:43,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:47,120<br \/>\nresentment is leading to sin,<br \/>\nbut in our view, it&#8217;s justified.<\/p>\n<p>603<br \/>\n00:40:48,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:53,240<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s justified.<br \/>\nWell, what that means is we <\/p>\n<p>604<br \/>\n00:40:53,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:56,880<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t need to repent.<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;ve slipped from self <\/p>\n<p>605<br \/>\n00:40:56,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:00,840<br \/>\njustification or getting even to<br \/>\nself righteousness or <\/p>\n<p>606<br \/>\n00:41:00,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:03,400<br \/>\nrationalizing a lack of<br \/>\nrepentance afterwards. <\/p>\n<p>607<br \/>\n00:41:06,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:08,640<br \/>\nUnfortunately, though, I, I<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t know if this is how it <\/p>\n<p>608<br \/>\n00:41:08,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:12,480<br \/>\nworks with you, but once I<br \/>\njustify doing the wrong thing, <\/p>\n<p>609<br \/>\n00:41:13,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:18,160<br \/>\nit becomes pretty easy to keep<br \/>\ndoing it and, and before long <\/p>\n<p>610<br \/>\n00:41:18,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:23,040<br \/>\neven expand upon it.<br \/>\nAnd, and we may find that the, <\/p>\n<p>611<br \/>\n00:41:23,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:25,400<br \/>\nthe balance, unfortunately, the<br \/>\nbalance of our child like <\/p>\n<p>612<br \/>\n00:41:25,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:27,800<br \/>\nreasoning.<br \/>\nIt might even start to tip the <\/p>\n<p>613<br \/>\n00:41:27,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:30,680<br \/>\nwrong direction.<br \/>\nYou know, it might be that, Gee,<\/p>\n<p>614<br \/>\n00:41:30,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:33,760<br \/>\nwe&#8217;ve done a lot of sins and you<br \/>\nknow that that hurt almost It <\/p>\n<p>615<br \/>\n00:41:33,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:38,000<br \/>\ndoesn&#8217;t even, it doesn&#8217;t even<br \/>\nseem to rationalize our, our, <\/p>\n<p>616<br \/>\n00:41:38,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:41,720<br \/>\nour sinful response.<br \/>\nAh, ha, ha, we have a solution <\/p>\n<p>617<br \/>\n00:41:41,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:44,520<br \/>\nto this problem, don&#8217;t we?<br \/>\nSo this is where excitement <\/p>\n<p>618<br \/>\n00:41:44,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:47,200<br \/>\nsteps in.<br \/>\nSo in in that case, we don&#8217;t <\/p>\n<p>619<br \/>\n00:41:47,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:48,480<br \/>\nwant this problem to last very<br \/>\nlong. <\/p>\n<p>620<br \/>\n00:41:48,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:50,240<br \/>\nWe just remember that hurt<br \/>\nagain. <\/p>\n<p>621<br \/>\n00:41:51,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:56,720<br \/>\nYep, and and we remember we<br \/>\nreplayed in our minds and but, <\/p>\n<p>622<br \/>\n00:41:57,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:59,400<br \/>\nbut we&#8217;re not too honest with<br \/>\nourselves, are we? <\/p>\n<p>623<br \/>\n00:41:59,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:04,360<br \/>\nWhen we think about that<br \/>\noriginal hurt, you know, we we <\/p>\n<p>624<br \/>\n00:42:04,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:10,200<br \/>\njust happen to make their part a<br \/>\nlittle bit worse and we make our<\/p>\n<p>625<br \/>\n00:42:10,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:15,880<br \/>\npart a little bit less and and<br \/>\ndoing this, we just make the <\/p>\n<p>626<br \/>\n00:42:15,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:23,040<br \/>\nhurt a little bit bigger, just<br \/>\njust big enough to justify our <\/p>\n<p>627<br \/>\n00:42:25,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:27,320<br \/>\nattitude and anger and<br \/>\nnegativity. <\/p>\n<p>628<br \/>\n00:42:28,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:31,920<br \/>\nWhen we re remember, don&#8217;t we<br \/>\ndo? <\/p>\n<p>629<br \/>\n00:42:33,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:37,880<br \/>\nWe had a little bit of<br \/>\nintention, you know, you meant <\/p>\n<p>630<br \/>\n00:42:37,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:42,640<br \/>\nto say that.<br \/>\nYou know, that was no accident. <\/p>\n<p>631<br \/>\n00:42:43,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:48,160<br \/>\nNot only did you do it on<br \/>\npurpose, I bet you premeditated <\/p>\n<p>632<br \/>\n00:42:48,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:51,920<br \/>\nit.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not third degree murder. <\/p>\n<p>633<br \/>\n00:42:52,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:54,160<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not even second degree<br \/>\nmurder. <\/p>\n<p>634<br \/>\n00:42:54,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:56,280<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s pre planned murder.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s first degree. <\/p>\n<p>635<br \/>\n00:42:56,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:04,360<br \/>\nYeah, we make it bigger and we<br \/>\nstart to get pretty good at this<\/p>\n<p>636<br \/>\n00:43:04,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:07,280<br \/>\njustification game.<br \/>\nAnd before long, everywhere we <\/p>\n<p>637<br \/>\n00:43:07,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:11,560<br \/>\nturn we find someone who&#8217;s<br \/>\nannoying us or doing something <\/p>\n<p>638<br \/>\n00:43:11,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:14,080<br \/>\nthe wrong way or or saying the<br \/>\nwrong thing. <\/p>\n<p>639<br \/>\n00:43:14,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:16,640<br \/>\nWe take offense at everything.<br \/>\nWe just pile up hurts. <\/p>\n<p>640<br \/>\n00:43:17,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:20,840<br \/>\nWe pile up resentments.<br \/>\nSo what are resentments, <\/p>\n<p>641<br \/>\n00:43:21,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:23,720<br \/>\nbrothers and sisters?<br \/>\nI want to give it a new <\/p>\n<p>642<br \/>\n00:43:23,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:28,960<br \/>\ndefinition.<br \/>\nI think resentments are the fuel<\/p>\n<p>643<br \/>\n00:43:30,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:32,800<br \/>\nthat allow us to feel OK doing<br \/>\nwhat&#8217;s wrong. <\/p>\n<p>644<br \/>\n00:43:37,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:41,320<br \/>\nBefore long we find ourselves in<br \/>\na position where we literally <\/p>\n<p>645<br \/>\n00:43:41,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:44,040<br \/>\ncan&#8217;t forgive the wrongs done to<br \/>\nothers. <\/p>\n<p>646<br \/>\n00:43:45,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:48,240<br \/>\nNow, why can&#8217;t you forgive the<br \/>\nwrongs done to others? <\/p>\n<p>647<br \/>\n00:43:48,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:51,680<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re full of resentment,<br \/>\nhow could you? <\/p>\n<p>648<br \/>\n00:43:53,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:58,000<br \/>\nIf you forgave, you&#8217;d be sitting<br \/>\non a huge pile of sins without <\/p>\n<p>649<br \/>\n00:43:58,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:01,880<br \/>\nanything to justify them with.<br \/>\nNone of us are going to do that.<\/p>\n<p>650<br \/>\n00:44:05,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:08,960<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;re going to continue with<br \/>\nthis diagram in our future <\/p>\n<p>651<br \/>\n00:44:08,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:10,880<br \/>\ntalks.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re kind of moved down the <\/p>\n<p>652<br \/>\n00:44:10,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:15,480<br \/>\nprocess into self loathing and<br \/>\nself gratification. <\/p>\n<p>653<br \/>\n00:44:15,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:19,280<br \/>\nBut for the moment, I want you<br \/>\nto see that this is the process <\/p>\n<p>654<br \/>\n00:44:19,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:22,960<br \/>\nthat Judah went down.<br \/>\nHe was the man that Paul <\/p>\n<p>655<br \/>\n00:44:22,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:26,160<br \/>\ndescribes in Titus, not<br \/>\nliterally, but figuratively. <\/p>\n<p>656<br \/>\n00:44:27,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:32,200<br \/>\nPaul says in Titus 3 verse 3<br \/>\nthat we ought to avoid those who<\/p>\n<p>657<br \/>\n00:44:32,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:34,840<br \/>\nare full of hate, envy, living<br \/>\nin malice. <\/p>\n<p>658<br \/>\n00:44:34,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:36,880<br \/>\nNow, living in malice means to<br \/>\nlive in ill will. <\/p>\n<p>659<br \/>\n00:44:37,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:44,040<br \/>\nLiving in I&#8217;ll will, deceived<br \/>\nand foolish. <\/p>\n<p>660<br \/>\n00:44:45,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:49,880<br \/>\nSo often, living in I&#8217;ll will,<br \/>\nWe are deceived because we&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>661<br \/>\n00:44:49,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:53,040<br \/>\nlying to ourselves.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re making it. <\/p>\n<p>662<br \/>\n00:44:53,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:55,840<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re making a horrible<br \/>\nsituation even worse. <\/p>\n<p>663<br \/>\n00:44:59,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:03,960<br \/>\nSo Judah&#8217;s problem began with<br \/>\nhurt that was real. <\/p>\n<p>664<br \/>\n00:45:04,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:06,840<br \/>\nIt was real, and it was<br \/>\nundeserved. <\/p>\n<p>665<br \/>\n00:45:08,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:12,880<br \/>\nIt was hurt that he nursed in<br \/>\nhis heart, and he used it to <\/p>\n<p>666<br \/>\n00:45:12,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:14,800<br \/>\njustify treating Joseph<br \/>\nBaddeley. <\/p>\n<p>667<br \/>\n00:45:16,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:18,240<br \/>\nBut you know a funny thing about<br \/>\ntreating Joseph Baddeley? <\/p>\n<p>668<br \/>\n00:45:19,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:21,080<br \/>\nIt didn&#8217;t make the pain in his<br \/>\nheart any less. <\/p>\n<p>669<br \/>\n00:45:23,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:27,560<br \/>\nThere was a benefit, though, of<br \/>\nresentment because it allowed <\/p>\n<p>670<br \/>\n00:45:27,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:31,480<br \/>\nJudah to justify his actions and<br \/>\nbeing justified. <\/p>\n<p>671<br \/>\n00:45:31,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:34,840<br \/>\nHis actions grew worse and<br \/>\nworse, and his attitude grew <\/p>\n<p>672<br \/>\n00:45:34,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:38,640<br \/>\nworse and worse.<br \/>\nBefore long, Judah was looking <\/p>\n<p>673<br \/>\n00:45:38,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:42,600<br \/>\nto find fault.<br \/>\nHe was full of displaced anger. <\/p>\n<p>674<br \/>\n00:45:42,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:47,280<br \/>\nHe was modeling hatred and envy,<br \/>\nand he was acting with skewed <\/p>\n<p>675<br \/>\n00:45:47,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:54,760<br \/>\njudgement of facts.<br \/>\nIn Paul&#8217;s words, Judah was <\/p>\n<p>676<br \/>\n00:45:54,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:57,600<br \/>\nthinking like a child keeping<br \/>\nrecords of wrongs. <\/p>\n<p>677<br \/>\n00:45:57,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:01,640<br \/>\nHe was counting wrongs.<br \/>\nWhich brings us to the question,<\/p>\n<p>678<br \/>\n00:46:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:09,520<br \/>\nwhat wrongs are you counting?<br \/>\nPerhaps it&#8217;s useful in light of <\/p>\n<p>679<br \/>\n00:46:09,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:12,800<br \/>\nthat to ask what God is<br \/>\ncounting, because the same word <\/p>\n<p>680<br \/>\n00:46:13,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:17,640<br \/>\nreasoned or counting love does<br \/>\nnot count wrongs. <\/p>\n<p>681<br \/>\n00:46:17,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:21,440<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s it&#8217;s used often in the New<br \/>\nTestament that it&#8217;s, it&#8217;s the <\/p>\n<p>682<br \/>\n00:46:21,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:26,760<br \/>\nGreek word lozami, and it means<br \/>\nto reckon or count or compute or<\/p>\n<p>683<br \/>\n00:46:26,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:30,480<br \/>\nmake a count of.<br \/>\nAnd this same word is used <\/p>\n<p>684<br \/>\n00:46:31,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:34,680<br \/>\nthroughout the New Testament,<br \/>\nfor example, in Romans 4 verse <\/p>\n<p>685<br \/>\n00:46:34,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:37,600<br \/>\n5.<br \/>\nBut to him that worketh not, but<\/p>\n<p>686<br \/>\n00:46:37,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:42,400<br \/>\nbelieveth on him that justifieth<br \/>\nthe godly, his faith is counted <\/p>\n<p>687<br \/>\n00:46:43,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:48,720<br \/>\nfor righteousness.<br \/>\nHow about Romans 4 verse 8 to <\/p>\n<p>688<br \/>\n00:46:48,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:52,720<br \/>\nthe man who the Lord will not<br \/>\nbless, the man whom the Lord <\/p>\n<p>689<br \/>\n00:46:52,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:58,360<br \/>\nwill not count sin.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s that one. <\/p>\n<p>690<br \/>\n00:46:58,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:05,800<br \/>\nYep.<br \/>\nOr 2nd Corinthians 5 verse 19. <\/p>\n<p>691<br \/>\n00:47:06,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:11,240<br \/>\nTo wit, that God was in Christ<br \/>\nreconciling the world to <\/p>\n<p>692<br \/>\n00:47:11,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:16,960<br \/>\nHimself, not counting trespasses<br \/>\nunto them, and hath committed <\/p>\n<p>693<br \/>\n00:47:16,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:18,600<br \/>\nunto us the word of<br \/>\nreconciliation. <\/p>\n<p>694<br \/>\n00:47:18,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:25,840<br \/>\nI just want you to bear this<br \/>\nfact in mind, that our nature is<\/p>\n<p>695<br \/>\n00:47:25,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:33,920<br \/>\nvery much to count, to count the<br \/>\nsins of others, to reason like <\/p>\n<p>696<br \/>\n00:47:33,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:42,040<br \/>\nchildren.<br \/>\nBut Christ in Christ God is not <\/p>\n<p>697<br \/>\n00:47:42,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:46,080<br \/>\ncounting trespasses, but what<br \/>\ndoes He count? <\/p>\n<p>698<br \/>\n00:47:47,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:55,880<br \/>\nHe is counting faith.<br \/>\nSo thinking back to the balance,<\/p>\n<p>699<br \/>\n00:47:55,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:59,920<br \/>\nthen, how does this balance work<br \/>\nin light of grace? <\/p>\n<p>700<br \/>\n00:48:03,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:06,520<br \/>\nOnce you say that that<br \/>\nundeserved kindness of grace, it<\/p>\n<p>701<br \/>\n00:48:06,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:13,600<br \/>\nbasically destroys this balance.<br \/>\nThis whole tit for tat paradigm <\/p>\n<p>702<br \/>\n00:48:14,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:17,400<br \/>\nwe seem to be born into.<br \/>\nSee, God&#8217;s not drowning, <\/p>\n<p>703<br \/>\n00:48:17,480 &#8211;&gt;
