1
\n00:00:00,480 –> 00:00:04,360
\nHello, this is Brother Chris.
\nAs mentioned in our previous <\/p>\n

2
\n00:00:04,360 –> 00:00:07,040
\nepisode, we have something
\nspecial planned for the month of<\/p>\n

3
\n00:00:07,040 –> 00:00:12,040
\nAugust and this is going to be
\nthe first episode of that as we <\/p>\n

4
\n00:00:12,040 –> 00:00:15,160
\nare coming up on the eighth year
\nof doing good Christadelphian <\/p>\n

5
\n00:00:15,160 –> 00:00:17,600
\ntalks.
\nOne of the things that I’ve been<\/p>\n

6
\n00:00:17,600 –> 00:00:19,800
\nsuper encouraged about
\npersonally and been able to see <\/p>\n

7
\n00:00:19,800 –> 00:00:22,800
\nis all the other podcasts that
\nare out there by <\/p>\n

8
\n00:00:22,800 –> 00:00:26,080
\nChristadelphians that have been
\npopping up both around the same <\/p>\n

9
\n00:00:26,080 –> 00:00:28,520
\ntime we did and also in the last
\nseveral years. <\/p>\n

10
\n00:00:28,960 –> 00:00:33,280
\nSo for this month, we are going
\nto be highlighting 4 different <\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:33,280 –> 00:00:36,320
\nChristadelphian podcasts that
\nhave been published. <\/p>\n

12
\n00:00:37,200 –> 00:00:40,840
\nWe will be picking a specific
\nepisode from that podcast about <\/p>\n

13
\n00:00:40,840 –> 00:00:43,640
\nyour appetite and get you
\nstarted, but our general <\/p>\n

14
\n00:00:43,640 –> 00:00:46,600
\nrecommendation is just to
\nsubscribe and listen to these <\/p>\n

15
\n00:00:46,600 –> 00:00:48,880
\npodcasts as well.
\nThey’re different from what good<\/p>\n

16
\n00:00:48,880 –> 00:00:52,840
\nChristadelphian Talks are, but
\nthey are super encouraging and <\/p>\n

17
\n00:00:52,840 –> 00:00:54,800
\nwe wanted to just raise the
\nprofile and make sure that <\/p>\n

18
\n00:00:54,800 –> 00:00:57,440
\neverybody knows about them
\nbecause they are awesome to be <\/p>\n

19
\n00:00:57,440 –> 00:01:00,760
\nable to listen to.
\nFor this week specifically, <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:01,040 –> 00:01:05,319
\nwe’re listening to an episode
\nfrom the Faith Works podcast, <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:05,319 –> 00:01:08,640
\nwhich is done by two brothers
\nfrom the Enfield Ecclesia in <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:08,640 –> 00:01:11,680
\nAdelaide, Australia.
\nI won’t go too much into <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:11,680 –> 00:01:14,080
\nexplaining what the point of
\ntheir podcast is because we’re <\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:14,080 –> 00:01:17,040
\ngoing to leave the introduction
\nin so you can hear it just as if<\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:17,040 –> 00:01:18,720
\nyou were listening to their
\nepisode. <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:19,560 –> 00:01:23,840
\nThis specifically is their third
\nepisode where they have an <\/p>\n

27
\n00:01:23,840 –> 00:01:26,560
\ninterview with brother Josh
\nKempster talking about the <\/p>\n

28
\n00:01:26,560 –> 00:01:28,960
\njudgment seat, but they also
\nhave stuff that they talk about <\/p>\n

29
\n00:01:28,960 –> 00:01:31,080
\nat the beginning.
\nSo I would encourage you to <\/p>\n

30
\n00:01:31,080 –> 00:01:33,520
\nlisten to all of it and enjoy
\nit. <\/p>\n

31
\n00:01:33,600 –> 00:01:35,920
\nI got to meet brother George
\nRichards, who’s one of the <\/p>\n

32
\n00:01:35,920 –> 00:01:39,040
\nbrothers that does it, and
\nreally enjoy chatting with him <\/p>\n

33
\n00:01:39,720 –> 00:01:43,600
\nand being able to talk to him
\nabout starting this podcast and <\/p>\n

34
\n00:01:43,600 –> 00:01:47,720
\nwhat he and brother Remy Wigzel
\ndo as they record it. <\/p>\n

35
\n00:01:47,720 –> 00:01:50,040
\nSo it was super fun to be able
\nto talk with them at the Ottawa <\/p>\n

36
\n00:01:50,040 –> 00:01:51,640
\nBible School just this past
\nweek. <\/p>\n

37
\n00:01:52,280 –> 00:01:56,840
\nAnd I hope that you find this as
\nencouraging and is exciting to <\/p>\n

38
\n00:01:56,840 –> 00:01:59,360
\nlisten to as I have.
\nI’ve loved all the episodes that<\/p>\n

39
\n00:01:59,360 –> 00:02:02,000
\nthey’ve done.
\nSo I would encourage you to <\/p>\n

40
\n00:02:02,040 –> 00:02:06,240
\nsubscribe as well.
\nAnd if you have any feedback for<\/p>\n

41
\n00:02:06,240 –> 00:02:09,560
\nthem or anything that you enjoy
\nabout it, feel free to reach out<\/p>\n

42
\n00:02:09,560 –> 00:02:11,800
\nto them as well.
\nThey mention how to contact them<\/p>\n

43
\n00:02:11,800 –> 00:02:14,560
\nin the opening of their podcast
\nepisode that we’re playing here.<\/p>\n

44
\n00:02:15,360 –> 00:02:18,800
\nSo I hope that you find both
\nthis particular episode and the <\/p>\n

45
\n00:02:18,800 –> 00:02:20,680
\nones through the rest of the
\nmonth of August to be <\/p>\n

46
\n00:02:20,680 –> 00:02:24,760
\nencouraging and a change from
\nwhat we’ve been doing. <\/p>\n

47
\n00:02:25,280 –> 00:02:28,160
\nWe have a bunch of exciting
\nthings planned for good <\/p>\n

48
\n00:02:28,160 –> 00:02:29,800
\nChristalphine talks as well
\ncoming up. <\/p>\n

49
\n00:02:30,240 –> 00:02:34,560
\nBut this is our special kind of
\nsummer thing that we do. <\/p>\n

50
\n00:02:34,800 –> 00:02:37,280
\nNormally would be in the month
\nof July, but this time because <\/p>\n

51
\n00:02:37,280 –> 00:02:38,920
\nof obviously all the
\ncoordination with the other <\/p>\n

52
\n00:02:38,920 –> 00:02:41,600
\npodcasts and getting permission
\nto be able to share their stuff <\/p>\n

53
\n00:02:41,600 –> 00:02:44,640
\non here, we had to push it a
\nlittle bit until August. <\/p>\n

54
\n00:02:45,200 –> 00:02:47,640
\nBut I hope that you find all of
\nthese encouraging. <\/p>\n

55
\n00:02:47,840 –> 00:02:50,480
\nAnd so with that, we are going
\nto roll right into the <\/p>\n

85
\n00:04:30,160 –> 00:04:33,760
\nthings change as the podcast

\nyou’ve got suggestions on.
\nWe’d love to hear them. <\/p>\n

89
\n00:04:43,320 –> 00:04:46,280
\nTopics and speakers and whatever
\nelse that’d be, that’d be great.<\/p>\n

90
\n00:04:46,280 –> 00:04:48,520
\nSo.
\nBut just like most weeks, we’ll <\/p>\n

91
\n00:04:48,520 –> 00:04:52,160
\nget cracking into what was once
\ncalled current events, but is <\/p>\n

92
\n00:04:52,160 –> 00:04:55,920
\nnow called what George?
\nCurrent of threads, pretty good.<\/p>\n

93
\n00:04:55,920 –> 00:04:59,120
\nIt’s a little bit of a play on
\nwords because what we’re going <\/p>\n

94
\n00:04:59,120 –> 00:05:01,880
\nto be doing is we’re going to be
\ngiving our current events <\/p>\n

95
\n00:05:01,880 –> 00:05:05,200
\nsegment a bit more of a
\nstructure so it can really <\/p>\n

96
\n00:05:05,200 –> 00:05:10,440
\nfollow, as it were, a story.
\nSo we’ve got these threads, so <\/p>\n

97
\n00:05:10,440 –> 00:05:14,440
\nto speak, current of threads, a
\ncurrent of threads, maybe even. <\/p>\n

98
\n00:05:14,880 –> 00:05:18,080
\nSo we’re going to be looking,
\nand the way that we’ve based <\/p>\n

99
\n00:05:18,240 –> 00:05:21,360
\nthis is we’re going to be sort
\nof telling stories week in, week<\/p>\n

100
\n00:05:21,360 –> 00:05:23,520
\nout about what’s going on around
\nthe world, but looking <\/p>\n

101
\n00:05:23,520 –> 00:05:28,080
\nspecifically at the players fan
\nin Ezekiel 38, which is <\/p>\n

102
\n00:05:28,080 –> 00:05:29,880
\nbasically Armageddon, isn’t it?
\nR.E.M. <\/p>\n

103
\n00:05:29,880 –> 00:05:31,120
\nYeah, yeah, yeah.
\nSo who? <\/p>\n

104
\n00:05:31,160 –> 00:05:33,440
\nWho are the key players in
\nEzekiel 30? <\/p>\n

105
\n00:05:33,440 –> 00:05:35,880
\nEight, we have Schieber and
\nDeidan. <\/p>\n

106
\n00:05:35,880 –> 00:05:39,960
\nWe have the ships of Tarsus,
\nobviously have Gog, Magog, Yeah.<\/p>\n

107
\n00:05:40,920 –> 00:05:42,600
\nAny more other ones that are
\nmissing there, George? <\/p>\n

108
\n00:05:42,600 –> 00:05:45,640
\nYeah, and obviously the key
\nplayers where all happens, <\/p>\n

109
\n00:05:45,640 –> 00:05:49,840
\nArmageddon all happens, which is
\non the the mountains of Israel, <\/p>\n

110
\n00:05:49,880 –> 00:05:53,240
\nthe unwalled villages, as
\nEzekiel 38 calls them. <\/p>\n

111
\n00:05:53,520 –> 00:05:57,200
\nSo what we’re going to be doing
\nfrom now on is just having this <\/p>\n

112
\n00:05:57,200 –> 00:06:01,600
\nstructure where we really look
\nat all the players. <\/p>\n

113
\n00:06:01,680 –> 00:06:03,760
\nAnd just follow them.
\nAnd we’re just going to follow <\/p>\n

114
\n00:06:03,760 –> 00:06:07,480
\nthem basically to Kingdom come.
\nIt would be awesome if we’re <\/p>\n

115
\n00:06:07,480 –> 00:06:11,040
\ngiven this podcast and the Angel
\nknocks at the door, like how <\/p>\n

116
\n00:06:11,320 –> 00:06:13,320
\nwould that be?
\nThat would just be amazing. <\/p>\n

117
\n00:06:13,320 –> 00:06:15,080
\nIt all happening in front of our
\neyes. <\/p>\n

118
\n00:06:15,080 –> 00:06:19,320
\nSo as we go week in, week out,
\nwe’re going to be seeing these <\/p>\n

119
\n00:06:19,320 –> 00:06:23,320
\ndifferent players in the lead up
\nto Armageddon. <\/p>\n

120
\n00:06:23,320 –> 00:06:25,640
\nThat’s that’s sort of our vision
\nfor this segment. <\/p>\n

121
\n00:06:25,640 –> 00:06:27,680
\nSo.
\nAll before the felt, the shaves <\/p>\n

122
\n00:06:27,680 –> 00:06:29,120
\nare gathered in the valley for
\njudgement. <\/p>\n

123
\n00:06:29,280 –> 00:06:31,360
\nYeah, that’s right.
\nSo that’ll be really exciting <\/p>\n

124
\n00:06:31,360 –> 00:06:35,040
\njust to see all this out play.
\nAnd I think and maybe even this <\/p>\n

125
\n00:06:35,040 –> 00:06:36,280
\nweek could be a little bit like
\nthat. <\/p>\n

126
\n00:06:36,280 –> 00:06:39,000
\nBut there might be some small
\nthings which don’t really seem <\/p>\n

127
\n00:06:39,040 –> 00:06:42,880
\nto fit in with the big picture.
\nBut I think we’ll be able to <\/p>\n

128
\n00:06:42,880 –> 00:06:46,480
\nlook back one in time and just
\nsee how it’s all unfolded. <\/p>\n

129
\n00:06:46,480 –> 00:06:47,760
\nYeah, yeah.
\nOver the weeks. <\/p>\n

130
\n00:06:48,880 –> 00:06:51,960
\nSo like R.E.M. said, we’ve got a
\nfew different players. <\/p>\n

131
\n00:06:52,680 –> 00:06:55,200
\nIs it you with 38?
\nVerse 2 talks about this <\/p>\n

132
\n00:06:55,200 –> 00:06:59,360
\nconfederacy, which is most
\npeople will know but if you <\/p>\n

133
\n00:06:59,360 –> 00:07:02,960
\ndon’t it is basically this
\nconfederacy made-up of the <\/p>\n

134
\n00:07:02,960 –> 00:07:10,160
\nEuropean nations headed from a
\nmilitary perspective by Gog and <\/p>\n

135
\n00:07:10,160 –> 00:07:13,360
\nGog basically is interpreted as
\nbeing one at the top. <\/p>\n

136
\n00:07:13,800 –> 00:07:18,520
\nSo the later and he’s the chief
\npre Prince of of Meshach and <\/p>\n

137
\n00:07:18,520 –> 00:07:22,080
\nTubal.
\nAnd we can go feel free to if <\/p>\n

138
\n00:07:22,080 –> 00:07:24,880
\nyou’ve got any questions about
\nthis segment, feel free to <\/p>\n

139
\n00:07:24,880 –> 00:07:27,200
\ne-mail us or whatever.
\nBut for the sake of time, <\/p>\n

140
\n00:07:27,880 –> 00:07:33,320
\nbasically that refers to ancient
\ntimes Russia. <\/p>\n

141
\n00:07:33,600 –> 00:07:35,800
\nSo Russia is going to be the
\nhead of this Confederacy, <\/p>\n

142
\n00:07:36,120 –> 00:07:38,800
\nparticularly the military.
\nMilitary. <\/p>\n

143
\n00:07:38,800 –> 00:07:43,160
\nI don’t know why I said it.
\nMilitary, the military aspect of<\/p>\n

144
\n00:07:44,120 –> 00:07:49,160
\nthe beast, knowing that the
\nreligious aspect, which is also <\/p>\n

145
\n00:07:49,160 –> 00:07:52,320
\ngoing to bring it together like
\nwe see in Daniel 2, with the <\/p>\n

146
\n00:07:52,320 –> 00:07:56,200
\niron in clay being the Pope,
\nwhich Revelation talks about as <\/p>\n

147
\n00:07:56,200 –> 00:07:58,760
\nwell.
\nSo one thread we’re always going<\/p>\n

148
\n00:07:58,760 –> 00:08:00,480
\nto be looking at Russia and
\nwhat’s going on there <\/p>\n

149
\n00:08:00,480 –> 00:08:02,200
\nparticularly.
\nThere’s always a lot going on <\/p>\n

150
\n00:08:02,200 –> 00:08:04,920
\nwith them as well and kind of
\ncurrent events, so that’s always<\/p>\n

151
\n00:08:04,920 –> 00:08:06,920
\ngood to watch.
\nAlways and just saying the <\/p>\n

152
\n00:08:06,920 –> 00:08:12,280
\nformation of this beast, again,
\nbringing back the old boundaries<\/p>\n

153
\n00:08:12,280 –> 00:08:15,720
\nof, you know, the Russian
\nFederation, you know, they’ve <\/p>\n

154
\n00:08:15,720 –> 00:08:20,600
\ngone into Georgia and now
\nthey’re going into Ukraine. <\/p>\n

155
\n00:08:20,600 –> 00:08:24,040
\nSo we’ll see what happens from
\nthat perspective as well. <\/p>\n

156
\n00:08:24,840 –> 00:08:27,360
\nSo we’ll be looking at at the
\nstory there with Russia, <\/p>\n

157
\n00:08:27,360 –> 00:08:29,320
\nparticularly in their war with
\nUkraine. <\/p>\n

158
\n00:08:29,320 –> 00:08:31,280
\nAs we say them.
\nWe’re going to be looking at <\/p>\n

159
\n00:08:31,280 –> 00:08:34,039
\nIsrael, which is obviously
\ncentral to the Bible. <\/p>\n

160
\n00:08:34,520 –> 00:08:36,880
\nAnd like Rams already mentioned,
\nwe’ll be looking at those who <\/p>\n

161
\n00:08:36,880 –> 00:08:40,919
\nwill oppose or try and impose
\nthis, this confederacy. <\/p>\n

162
\n00:08:40,919 –> 00:08:46,920
\nAnd that’s made-up of Sheba and
\nD Dan and the Young Lions as God<\/p>\n

163
\n00:08:46,920 –> 00:08:50,520
\nis basically drawing them.
\nAnd Ezekiel uses the word <\/p>\n

164
\n00:08:51,120 –> 00:08:54,640
\nbasically being drawn to this
\nplace in Israel and God through <\/p>\n

165
\n00:08:54,640 –> 00:08:56,800
\ncurrent events and whatever
\nelse, is bringing all these <\/p>\n

166
\n00:08:56,800 –> 00:08:59,880
\ndifferent powers to Israel like
\nhis prophesied. <\/p>\n

167
\n00:09:00,640 –> 00:09:03,880
\nSo just to kick things off this
\nweek, we’ve seen something <\/p>\n

168
\n00:09:03,880 –> 00:09:07,360
\nthat’s maybe flown a little bit
\nunder the radar, but is also <\/p>\n

169
\n00:09:07,360 –> 00:09:11,080
\npretty interesting, and it’s the
\nHouthis. <\/p>\n

170
\n00:09:11,400 –> 00:09:12,720
\nInteresting.
\nHave you heard of the Houthis? <\/p>\n

171
\n00:09:12,840 –> 00:09:14,840
\nI have not heard of the Houthis.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

172
\n00:09:14,840 –> 00:09:22,360
\nSo the Houthis, they’re they’re
\nwhat we call Shia Muslims. <\/p>\n

173
\n00:09:22,360 –> 00:09:28,480
\nThey’re a particular branch of
\nIslam and they are located on <\/p>\n

174
\n00:09:28,480 –> 00:09:31,400
\nthe Arabian Peninsula in a, in a
\ncountry called Yemen. <\/p>\n

175
\n00:09:31,760 –> 00:09:33,480
\nSo I heard of Yemen.
\nYou’ve heard of Yemen? <\/p>\n

176
\n00:09:33,480 –> 00:09:37,200
\nYep.
\nYemen So directly below Israel <\/p>\n

177
\n00:09:37,240 –> 00:09:40,560
\nin the Arabian Peninsula is
\nSaudi Arabia, which basically <\/p>\n

178
\n00:09:40,560 –> 00:09:42,680
\nmakes up about 80% of the
\npeninsula. <\/p>\n

179
\n00:09:42,680 –> 00:09:47,520
\nAnd right below that is Yemen.
\nSo it’s about 1000 KS away from <\/p>\n

180
\n00:09:47,520 –> 00:09:51,000
\nIsrael and they’ve been using
\nthese long range missiles and <\/p>\n

181
\n00:09:51,000 –> 00:09:54,240
\ndrones and whatever else to
\nattack Israel because they’re <\/p>\n

182
\n00:09:54,240 –> 00:09:56,560
\nthe whole we stand with
\nPalestine type thing. <\/p>\n

183
\n00:09:57,640 –> 00:10:02,360
\nThey’re on the same side of the
\nIslamic faith, interestingly <\/p>\n

184
\n00:10:02,360 –> 00:10:05,800
\nenough, their war a bit with
\nSaudi Arabia as well. <\/p>\n

185
\n00:10:06,080 –> 00:10:10,720
\nAnd they they are Sunni Muslims,
\nwhich are more aligned with <\/p>\n

186
\n00:10:10,920 –> 00:10:13,360
\nSheba and Daidan, as we’ve seen
\nin Ezekiel 38. <\/p>\n

187
\n00:10:13,360 –> 00:10:15,520
\nSo they’re at war.
\nWe’re beginning to see these <\/p>\n

188
\n00:10:15,520 –> 00:10:18,280
\npowers emerge, you know, the
\nfriends and the enemies of <\/p>\n

189
\n00:10:18,280 –> 00:10:20,360
\nIsrael.
\nBut the interesting thing, and <\/p>\n

190
\n00:10:20,360 –> 00:10:22,800
\nwe don’t want to spend too much
\ntime on it, this is really just <\/p>\n

191
\n00:10:22,800 –> 00:10:26,800
\nmeant to be pretty quick, is
\nthat they’re also beginning to <\/p>\n

192
\n00:10:27,120 –> 00:10:29,920
\ncontrol the Red Sea.
\nSo they have control over the <\/p>\n

193
\n00:10:29,920 –> 00:10:32,680
\nRed Sea because the Arabian
\nPeninsula, yeah, links with the <\/p>\n

194
\n00:10:32,680 –> 00:10:34,400
\nRed Sea.
\nAnd they’ve got control of <\/p>\n

195
\n00:10:34,760 –> 00:10:37,360
\nnorthern and western Yemen,
\nwhich actually includes the <\/p>\n

196
\n00:10:37,360 –> 00:10:38,560
\ncapital.
\nSo they’re pretty well in <\/p>\n

197
\n00:10:38,560 –> 00:10:41,440
\ncontrol of Yemen at the moment.
\nAnd what they’re doing is <\/p>\n

198
\n00:10:41,440 –> 00:10:43,720
\nthey’re really impacting trade
\nthrough the Red Sea. <\/p>\n

199
\n00:10:43,760 –> 00:10:47,200
\nOh, interesting.
\nSo what’s been happening of <\/p>\n

200
\n00:10:47,200 –> 00:10:51,600
\nlight is the UK and the US, who
\nare commonly known as Israel’s <\/p>\n

201
\n00:10:51,600 –> 00:10:57,320
\nallies, have been sending
\nstrikes to these Houthi rebels, <\/p>\n

202
\n00:10:57,320 –> 00:11:01,040
\nwhich are backed by Iran, who
\nare also Shia Muslims. <\/p>\n

203
\n00:11:01,040 –> 00:11:04,520
\nSo they’ve been back in Yemen
\nand the Houthis and whatever <\/p>\n

204
\n00:11:04,520 –> 00:11:06,120
\nelse.
\nAnd the Houthis would be nowhere<\/p>\n

205
\n00:11:06,120 –> 00:11:08,680
\nwithout Iran.
\nAnd they know, you know, they’ve<\/p>\n

206
\n00:11:08,680 –> 00:11:11,720
\nbeen out of strike Israel from
\n1000 KS and actually do some <\/p>\n

207
\n00:11:11,720 –> 00:11:13,640
\ndamage.
\nAnd the only way they could do <\/p>\n

208
\n00:11:13,640 –> 00:11:16,400
\nthat would be through Iran
\nsupporting them. <\/p>\n

209
\n00:11:16,920 –> 00:11:20,360
\nBut what’s been happening more
\nso of late is the fact that <\/p>\n

210
\n00:11:21,560 –> 00:11:25,840
\nTrump has made a deal with the
\nHouthis where he will stop <\/p>\n

211
\n00:11:26,240 –> 00:11:30,560
\nprotecting Israel so that the
\nHouthis will stop attacking <\/p>\n

212
\n00:11:31,000 –> 00:11:34,200
\nships coming through the Red
\nSea, really, which is pretty <\/p>\n

213
\n00:11:34,200 –> 00:11:37,400
\ninteresting.
\nSo Trump, who’s always very pro <\/p>\n

214
\n00:11:37,400 –> 00:11:41,040
\nIsrael at the at the moment, is
\nbasically letting. <\/p>\n

215
\n00:11:41,160 –> 00:11:43,680
\nLetting them do what they want.
\nHave their way with Israel in <\/p>\n

216
\n00:11:43,680 –> 00:11:47,440
\nthat sense so they won’t attack,
\nyou know, the tribe, the trade <\/p>\n

217
\n00:11:47,440 –> 00:11:49,920
\ngoing through going through the
\nRed Sea there. <\/p>\n

218
\n00:11:49,920 –> 00:11:53,240
\nSo that’s pretty interesting.
\nSo I think we sometimes look at <\/p>\n

219
\n00:11:53,240 –> 00:11:56,040
\nTrump and we think, oh, he’s,
\nyou know, God’s using him to <\/p>\n

220
\n00:11:56,040 –> 00:11:58,680
\nprotect Israel.
\nBut I think this is an example <\/p>\n

221
\n00:11:58,680 –> 00:12:01,880
\nof where we see Trump really
\njust serving himself. <\/p>\n

222
\n00:12:02,040 –> 00:12:04,080
\nYou know what we’re?
\nDoing again what’s best for <\/p>\n

223
\n00:12:04,080 –> 00:12:05,440
\nAmerica because that’s all he
\nhears. <\/p>\n

224
\n00:12:05,440 –> 00:12:05,800
\nWhat?
\nRight now? <\/p>\n

225
\n00:12:05,800 –> 00:12:06,680
\nYeah.
\nThat’s right. <\/p>\n

226
\n00:12:07,040 –> 00:12:08,560
\nSo that’s really what’s going
\non. <\/p>\n

227
\n00:12:08,560 –> 00:12:12,800
\nObviously the whole Gaza crisis
\nis ongoing, but the Houthis, you<\/p>\n

228
\n00:12:12,800 –> 00:12:16,240
\nknow, as they stand with
\nPalestine, while this has all <\/p>\n

229
\n00:12:16,240 –> 00:12:18,600
\nbeen going on, they’ve also been
\nattacking Israel. <\/p>\n

230
\n00:12:18,600 –> 00:12:21,000
\nSo that’s really what’s
\nhappening in the in the Holy <\/p>\n

231
\n00:12:21,000 –> 00:12:25,560
\nLand at the moment.
\nOther pretty interesting news as<\/p>\n

232
\n00:12:25,560 –> 00:12:31,560
\nwell is the whole escalation of
\nthe crisis between Pakistan and <\/p>\n

233
\n00:12:31,560 –> 00:12:34,920
\nIndia.
\nAnd this is another interesting,<\/p>\n

234
\n00:12:36,680 –> 00:12:40,040
\nI guess dichotomy, if you like,
\nbecause India’s always been seen<\/p>\n

235
\n00:12:40,040 –> 00:12:44,760
\nin Bible prophecy or by the
\nChristadelphians has been pro <\/p>\n

236
\n00:12:44,760 –> 00:12:47,680
\nIsrael was part of the
\nCommonwealth, the Young Lions <\/p>\n

237
\n00:12:47,680 –> 00:12:53,280
\nwho will oppose this Gogi
\ninvasion and Pakistan is is <\/p>\n

238
\n00:12:53,280 –> 00:12:55,920
\nMuslim as well.
\nSo I was saying this, this <\/p>\n

239
\n00:12:55,920 –> 00:13:02,200
\nbattle between these two parties
\nand this is also current events.<\/p>\n

240
\n00:13:02,200 –> 00:13:05,040
\nIt’s also prophecy opening up in
\nour eyes because we have seen <\/p>\n

241
\n00:13:05,040 –> 00:13:09,400
\nsuch a extended period of peace
\nbetween these two nations, which<\/p>\n

242
\n00:13:09,880 –> 00:13:12,280
\nin times gone by, we’re always
\nat war with each other. <\/p>\n

243
\n00:13:12,640 –> 00:13:15,440
\nWe’ve seen a pretty extended
\nperiod of peace between the two <\/p>\n

244
\n00:13:15,440 –> 00:13:20,080
\ncountries, but now we’re just
\nsaying war. <\/p>\n

245
\n00:13:20,120 –> 00:13:22,960
\nSo there’s this conflict going
\nbetween Pakistan and India. <\/p>\n

246
\n00:13:23,200 –> 00:13:27,760
\nAnd I just, I went through
\nbrother Andy Bolton’s worldwide <\/p>\n

247
\n00:13:27,760 –> 00:13:30,840
\nwatch that he has, which is
\nreally good to to look at for <\/p>\n

248
\n00:13:30,880 –> 00:13:34,200
\njust keeping yourself up to date
\nwith current events where he <\/p>\n

249
\n00:13:34,200 –> 00:13:37,160
\nquotes from the Daily Telegraph
\nbasically saying this long <\/p>\n

250
\n00:13:37,160 –> 00:13:39,560
\nperiod of peace between the two
\nnations is over. <\/p>\n

251
\n00:13:40,040 –> 00:13:43,640
\nAnd now we’re ushering in this
\nnew era of war, which hasn’t <\/p>\n

252
\n00:13:43,640 –> 00:13:49,400
\nbeen seen for some time.
\nAnd the Bible prophecies when <\/p>\n

253
\n00:13:49,400 –> 00:13:51,880
\nChrist returns back to the earth
\nthat there’s going to be wars <\/p>\n

254
\n00:13:51,920 –> 00:13:55,200
\nall over the place and these new
\nconflicts just escalating out of<\/p>\n

255
\n00:13:55,200 –> 00:13:58,400
\nhand.
\nAnd Trump is also is a busy man,<\/p>\n

256
\n00:13:58,960 –> 00:14:01,920
\nbut Trump’s also involved in
\nthis one too because both these <\/p>\n

257
\n00:14:01,920 –> 00:14:06,600
\ncountries have nuclear weapons.
\nSo this has the potential to <\/p>\n

258
\n00:14:06,600 –> 00:14:09,240
\nbecome nuclear.
\nNuclear war, Yeah. <\/p>\n

259
\n00:14:09,520 –> 00:14:10,960
\nWow.
\nAnd that’s unlike with anything <\/p>\n

260
\n00:14:11,080 –> 00:14:12,760
\nwe’ve really seen before a
\nnuclear war. <\/p>\n

261
\n00:14:12,760 –> 00:14:14,400
\nCorrect.
\nWe’re saying things we’ve never <\/p>\n

262
\n00:14:14,400 –> 00:14:20,760
\nseen before and that can only oh
\nexcitedly, hopefully can only <\/p>\n

263
\n00:14:20,760 –> 00:14:23,120
\nmean one thing and that is Jesus
\nChrist returning back to the <\/p>\n

264
\n00:14:23,120 –> 00:14:25,280
\nearth.
\nIn other news as well, we’re <\/p>\n

265
\n00:14:25,280 –> 00:14:29,600
\nsaying Russia sort of flexing
\ntheir muscles during parades <\/p>\n

266
\n00:14:29,640 –> 00:14:35,320
\nthrough Saint Petersburg and
\nwhatever I was in and Moscow and<\/p>\n

267
\n00:14:35,320 –> 00:14:40,000
\nthen in in Europe, Trump again
\nbrokering these peace deal was <\/p>\n

268
\n00:14:40,000 –> 00:14:44,560
\nwith Ukraine and her allies.
\nAnd that’s the, the, the tide is<\/p>\n

269
\n00:14:44,560 –> 00:14:46,720
\nsort of shifting a little bit
\nnow. <\/p>\n

270
\n00:14:46,720 –> 00:14:50,440
\nHe, him and JD Vance, who’s the
\nvice president there in the US, <\/p>\n

271
\n00:14:50,640 –> 00:14:53,600
\nthey’re becoming quite
\nfrustrated with Russia because <\/p>\n

272
\n00:14:53,600 –> 00:14:57,960
\nPutin’s standing his ground.
\nHe doesn’t want peace at any <\/p>\n

273
\n00:14:57,960 –> 00:15:02,640
\nterms, on any terms.
\nSo while Trump is bringing all <\/p>\n

274
\n00:15:02,640 –> 00:15:07,480
\nthese European nations together
\nwith Ukraine and trying to break<\/p>\n

275
\n00:15:07,480 –> 00:15:10,000
\nthis peace deal, Trump isn’t
\nbatting an ally. <\/p>\n

276
\n00:15:10,000 –> 00:15:12,160
\nAnd so they’re getting pretty
\nfrustrated with that. <\/p>\n

277
\n00:15:12,440 –> 00:15:15,960
\nAnd finally, big news.
\nThe Catholic system is about to <\/p>\n

278
\n00:15:15,960 –> 00:15:19,240
\nannounce their new Pope.
\nSo pretty exciting to see where <\/p>\n

279
\n00:15:19,240 –> 00:15:23,360
\nthey go with that and how their
\nchoice of new Pope impacts the <\/p>\n

280
\n00:15:23,360 –> 00:15:26,000
\nworld’s landscape.
\nEspecially from revelations here<\/p>\n

281
\n00:15:26,000 –> 00:15:29,360
\nthat unfolds.
\nThat’s going to be a big part of<\/p>\n

282
\n00:15:29,680 –> 00:15:32,600
\nhow, yeah, this whole thing
\nescalates. <\/p>\n

283
\n00:15:33,120 –> 00:15:35,560
\nSo that’s that is our current of
\nthreads. <\/p>\n

284
\n00:15:35,640 –> 00:15:37,400
\nGreat debut.
\nGreat debut for current of <\/p>\n

285
\n00:15:37,400 –> 00:15:40,520
\nThreads, George.
\nI was really fascinating to be <\/p>\n

286
\n00:15:40,520 –> 00:15:44,200
\nhonest, to see the things going
\non in this world and just the <\/p>\n

287
\n00:15:44,200 –> 00:15:47,160
\namount of content there from
\njust a few weeks of, of what’s <\/p>\n

288
\n00:15:47,160 –> 00:15:50,400
\ngoing on in the world is
\nactually quite distressing to be<\/p>\n

289
\n00:15:50,400 –> 00:15:52,720
\nhonest.
\nLike if you had no hope, it’s <\/p>\n

290
\n00:15:52,720 –> 00:15:55,720
\nquite sad saying that in every
\naspect of the world, in every <\/p>\n

291
\n00:15:55,720 –> 00:16:00,320
\ncountry in like economically and
\nsocially and politically, how <\/p>\n

292
\n00:16:00,320 –> 00:16:03,560
\nmuch is going on that’s so bad
\nand negative is actually quite <\/p>\n

293
\n00:16:03,560 –> 00:16:06,360
\nupsetting and and sad.
\nBut for Bible believers, like, <\/p>\n

294
\n00:16:06,360 –> 00:16:08,640
\nyou know, everyone listening
\nright now, it’s actually gives <\/p>\n

295
\n00:16:08,640 –> 00:16:11,280
\nus great comfort knowing that
\nGod is working in the kingdoms <\/p>\n

296
\n00:16:11,280 –> 00:16:13,560
\nof man to bring about his plan
\nand purpose. <\/p>\n

297
\n00:16:13,960 –> 00:16:16,720
\nSo I guess jumping into our
\nthought from a talk then for <\/p>\n

298
\n00:16:16,720 –> 00:16:19,920
\nthis week I’ve taken back the
\nreigns from George. <\/p>\n

299
\n00:16:19,920 –> 00:16:23,560
\nAnd this week I’ve spoken I’m
\ngoing to speak about a series I <\/p>\n

300
\n00:16:23,560 –> 00:16:28,560
\nheard by by brother Ben
\nBrinkerhoff and he has it on on <\/p>\n

301
\n00:16:28,560 –> 00:16:30,360
\nresentment and the story of
\nJudah. <\/p>\n

302
\n00:16:30,840 –> 00:16:34,840
\nAnd I have really, really loved
\nthese series or these talks, and<\/p>\n

303
\n00:16:34,840 –> 00:16:39,440
\nI’ve actually shared them with a
\nfew people because I believe the<\/p>\n

304
\n00:16:39,440 –> 00:16:41,200
\nstory of Judah is actually quite
\nfascinating. <\/p>\n

305
\n00:16:41,200 –> 00:16:44,400
\nAnd if you don’t know it so
\nwell, I’d suggest you <\/p>\n

306
\n00:16:44,400 –> 00:16:47,280
\nfamiliarize yourself with it.
\nBut this is a few things I’ve <\/p>\n

307
\n00:16:47,280 –> 00:16:50,760
\ntaken from his his first talk,
\nwhich I believe is called the <\/p>\n

308
\n00:16:50,760 –> 00:16:53,680
\nseeds of resentment.
\nAnd there’s some one liners <\/p>\n

309
\n00:16:53,680 –> 00:16:55,760
\nhere.
\nHe says hurt people tend to hurt<\/p>\n

310
\n00:16:55,760 –> 00:16:57,600
\npeople the way they’ve been
\nhurt. <\/p>\n

311
\n00:16:58,080 –> 00:17:01,560
\nAnd it seems a bit clunky there.
\nBut what like that’s so true is <\/p>\n

312
\n00:17:01,600 –> 00:17:04,599
\nin all of our lives.
\nIf if you’ve been hurt in a <\/p>\n

313
\n00:17:04,599 –> 00:17:07,640
\ncertain way before, you feel
\njustified in reciprocating <\/p>\n

314
\n00:17:07,640 –> 00:17:09,440
\nthose.
\nThose feelings are the people. <\/p>\n

315
\n00:17:09,440 –> 00:17:13,000
\nAnd just like in Judah’s life,
\nthe example he saw of Jacob <\/p>\n

316
\n00:17:13,000 –> 00:17:19,040
\nloving his mum Leah less than he
\nloved Joseph’s mum Rachel, he <\/p>\n

317
\n00:17:19,040 –> 00:17:21,000
\nkind of impacted that.
\nAnd, and that made him feel <\/p>\n

318
\n00:17:21,000 –> 00:17:24,760
\njustified in the way he sort of
\nperceived people in his life. <\/p>\n

319
\n00:17:24,760 –> 00:17:27,440
\nAnd that definitely had an
\nimpact on him in his life. <\/p>\n

320
\n00:17:28,000 –> 00:17:29,920
\nAnd how he treated Joseph in
\nreturn. <\/p>\n

321
\n00:17:29,920 –> 00:17:32,360
\nYeah, exactly.
\nAnd how older brothers really <\/p>\n

322
\n00:17:32,360 –> 00:17:33,760
\ntreated.
\nBut even, you know, the way he <\/p>\n

323
\n00:17:33,760 –> 00:17:37,160
\ntreated, you know, his kids
\ngrowing up, he, he didn’t <\/p>\n

324
\n00:17:37,160 –> 00:17:41,160
\nreally, he had that same view as
\nreally how Jacob viewed them. <\/p>\n

325
\n00:17:42,240 –> 00:17:45,200
\nAnd it naturally that that is,
\nif you’ve sort of gone through <\/p>\n

326
\n00:17:45,200 –> 00:17:48,560
\nthat, that battle and someone’s
\nhurt you in a way, naturally you<\/p>\n

327
\n00:17:48,560 –> 00:17:52,320
\nfeel justified and you’ll
\nreciprocate those feelings to <\/p>\n

328
\n00:17:52,320 –> 00:17:55,920
\nother people.
\nBut another one here that I <\/p>\n

329
\n00:17:55,920 –> 00:17:58,840
\nreally liked from him that he
\nthat he put that I’ve actually <\/p>\n

330
\n00:17:58,840 –> 00:18:02,640
\nreally resonated with and felt
\nlike he’s been powerful to me. <\/p>\n

331
\n00:18:02,640 –> 00:18:06,120
\nAnd he says this, he says a form
\nof resentment is interpreting <\/p>\n

332
\n00:18:06,120 –> 00:18:09,280
\ninformation pessimistically,
\nskewing information in other <\/p>\n

333
\n00:18:09,280 –> 00:18:13,360
\nterms, therefore limited
\ninformation, interpreting it <\/p>\n

334
\n00:18:13,360 –> 00:18:16,120
\npessimistically allows justified
\nactions. <\/p>\n

335
\n00:18:16,400 –> 00:18:19,120
\nSo it’s a bit of a mouthful, but
\nbasically what that means is <\/p>\n

336
\n00:18:19,120 –> 00:18:22,040
\nthat the limited information you
\nget of other people around you, <\/p>\n

337
\n00:18:22,080 –> 00:18:24,160
\nwhat you might actually just
\nhear, maybe it’s just a whisper <\/p>\n

338
\n00:18:24,160 –> 00:18:26,840
\nor maybe it’s even a rumour
\nbecause you’ve got that <\/p>\n

339
\n00:18:26,840 –> 00:18:29,840
\nperception of them, you and then
\nin turn interpret it <\/p>\n

340
\n00:18:29,840 –> 00:18:31,600
\npessimistically and in a
\nnegative way. <\/p>\n

341
\n00:18:31,960 –> 00:18:34,640
\nAnd because you’ve had a little
\nrumor about a person you don’t <\/p>\n

342
\n00:18:34,640 –> 00:18:37,560
\nlike, that therefore means you
\nact in a way that’s probably <\/p>\n

343
\n00:18:37,560 –> 00:18:40,640
\nunrighteous and you then judge
\nthem or you spread more rumors <\/p>\n

344
\n00:18:40,640 –> 00:18:43,120
\nabout them.
\nAnd that is the the justified <\/p>\n

345
\n00:18:43,120 –> 00:18:45,280
\nactions.
\nYou think someone else has done <\/p>\n

346
\n00:18:45,280 –> 00:18:47,520
\nsomething wrong, you don’t like
\nthem, you think they’re a bad <\/p>\n

347
\n00:18:47,520 –> 00:18:49,440
\nperson.
\nSo you take things into your own<\/p>\n

348
\n00:18:49,440 –> 00:18:52,640
\nhands and it’s a justified in,
\nyou know, in air quotes, it’s a <\/p>\n

349
\n00:18:52,640 –> 00:18:55,200
\njustified action.
\nAnd that’s something that he <\/p>\n

350
\n00:18:55,200 –> 00:18:59,760
\nreally takes out from the story
\nof you of Judah is that idea of <\/p>\n

351
\n00:19:01,600 –> 00:19:03,560
\ntaking the information from
\nother people’s lives. <\/p>\n

352
\n00:19:03,560 –> 00:19:05,880
\nAnd the way that we view other
\npeople in our lives, the <\/p>\n

353
\n00:19:05,880 –> 00:19:08,160
\nnegative way that we’ll treat
\nother people in our lives <\/p>\n

354
\n00:19:08,160 –> 00:19:11,480
\nbecause we’ve heard something
\nbad about them or, or we’ve <\/p>\n

355
\n00:19:11,480 –> 00:19:13,800
\nheard a rumour about them.
\nAnd, and we act completely <\/p>\n

356
\n00:19:13,800 –> 00:19:16,840
\nunrighteous and we kind of lash
\nout to other people and we, we <\/p>\n

357
\n00:19:16,840 –> 00:19:19,800
\npotentially spread false rumours
\nor we say the wrong things about<\/p>\n

358
\n00:19:19,800 –> 00:19:22,160
\nthem.
\nAnd I felt that was really <\/p>\n

359
\n00:19:22,160 –> 00:19:24,800
\nstrong because I know, you know,
\nI’ve had examples of that in my <\/p>\n

360
\n00:19:24,800 –> 00:19:29,680
\nlife before and sort of how
\nthat’s really the complete wrong<\/p>\n

361
\n00:19:29,680 –> 00:19:32,720
\nlesson.
\nAnd Judah’s story teaches that <\/p>\n

362
\n00:19:32,720 –> 00:19:34,760
\nthat idea of resentment to
\novercome. <\/p>\n

363
\n00:19:35,560 –> 00:19:38,320
\nAnd I think that’s something
\nfrom this talk that resonated <\/p>\n

364
\n00:19:38,320 –> 00:19:42,680
\nwith me and something that I try
\nto try and call out as well. <\/p>\n

365
\n00:19:42,680 –> 00:19:45,040
\nIt’s not just doing it in your
\nown life, but you got to you <\/p>\n

366
\n00:19:45,040 –> 00:19:47,640
\ncan’t allow that those actions
\nto take place in peoples lives <\/p>\n

367
\n00:19:47,640 –> 00:19:49,440
\nas well.
\nYou have to try and stand for a <\/p>\n

368
\n00:19:49,440 –> 00:19:51,360
\ntry.
\nBut that’s sort of been the that<\/p>\n

369
\n00:19:51,360 –> 00:19:54,200
\nthought from a talk I got this
\nweek was from was from Uncle <\/p>\n

370
\n00:19:54,200 –> 00:19:56,720
\nBen’s talks on Judah.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

371
\n00:19:56,720 –> 00:19:59,000
\nAnd it’s all, it’s all a matter
\nof perspective. <\/p>\n

372
\n00:19:59,160 –> 00:20:02,080
\nExactly.
\nAnd I think, like you say, Judah<\/p>\n

373
\n00:20:02,360 –> 00:20:04,960
\nalmost didn’t stand a chance
\nright from the word go because <\/p>\n

374
\n00:20:04,960 –> 00:20:08,640
\nhe saw this infighting and this
\nhierarchy in his family from <\/p>\n

375
\n00:20:08,640 –> 00:20:10,880
\nsuch a young age that it’s
\nalmost like he never had a <\/p>\n

376
\n00:20:10,880 –> 00:20:11,760
\nchance.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

377
\n00:20:11,920 –> 00:20:14,880
\nYeah.
\nSo I think our our perspective <\/p>\n

378
\n00:20:14,880 –> 00:20:20,320
\nis based on how we’re moulded
\nand how we interact with the <\/p>\n

379
\n00:20:20,320 –> 00:20:24,600
\nworld from a really young age.
\nYeah, and it is. <\/p>\n

380
\n00:20:24,600 –> 00:20:27,720
\nIt’s remarkable to see the story
\nof Judah unfold because you <\/p>\n

381
\n00:20:27,720 –> 00:20:30,920
\nthink about how how many issues
\nthey had in Jacob’s family and <\/p>\n

382
\n00:20:30,920 –> 00:20:33,000
\nand Joseph’s family and how many
\nthings that went wrong. <\/p>\n

383
\n00:20:33,760 –> 00:20:37,040
\nBut yet God still worked through
\nthe 12 tribes, the 12 sons, the <\/p>\n

384
\n00:20:37,040 –> 00:20:39,120
\n12 tribes of Israel.
\nAnd that goes all the way <\/p>\n

385
\n00:20:39,120 –> 00:20:40,920
\nthrough the Old Testament.
\nAnd even though it was wrong, <\/p>\n

386
\n00:20:41,200 –> 00:20:43,360
\nthey’re still, you know,
\ndescribed as in the Kingdom as <\/p>\n

387
\n00:20:43,360 –> 00:20:45,600
\nlike inheriting that land.
\nAnd like, it’s the fact that <\/p>\n

388
\n00:20:45,600 –> 00:20:49,160
\nGod, no, no matter how messed up
\nthe family was, God still <\/p>\n

389
\n00:20:49,160 –> 00:20:51,560
\nsomehow worked through them to
\nbring about his plan and <\/p>\n

390
\n00:20:51,560 –> 00:20:53,680
\npurpose.
\nAnd again, Uncle Ben made that <\/p>\n

391
\n00:20:53,680 –> 00:20:54,800
\npoint clear.
\nAnd I think that’s it. <\/p>\n

392
\n00:20:54,800 –> 00:20:57,480
\nThat was a pretty strong point
\ntaken away from that. <\/p>\n

393
\n00:20:58,360 –> 00:21:00,600
\nBut that’s our thought from the
\ntalk, from the way we’ve now <\/p>\n

394
\n00:21:00,600 –> 00:21:02,720
\ngoing to have a conversation
\nwith Josh, which was actually a <\/p>\n

395
\n00:21:02,720 –> 00:21:04,480
\nreally good conversation on the
\njudgement seat. <\/p>\n

396
\n00:21:05,040 –> 00:21:07,720
\nHe did rephrase.
\nSorry, reshape. <\/p>\n

397
\n00:21:07,880 –> 00:21:10,200
\nI’d say my thinking a little bit
\non the judgement seat. <\/p>\n

398
\n00:21:10,720 –> 00:21:13,240
\nIt was a really uplifting
\nconversation and and it was <\/p>\n

399
\n00:21:13,240 –> 00:21:16,000
\nreally, really great to get into
\nit and I think you’ll probably <\/p>\n

400
\n00:21:16,000 –> 00:21:18,120
\nget a lot out of it, just like
\nGeorge and I did. <\/p>\n

401
\n00:21:18,360 –> 00:21:20,640
\nYeah, he went to some quotes
\nthat I’ve never even seen <\/p>\n

402
\n00:21:20,640 –> 00:21:21,800
\nbefore.
\nYeah, exactly. <\/p>\n

403
\n00:21:22,040 –> 00:21:25,160
\nThat just broadened both our
\nhorizons, looking at the <\/p>\n

404
\n00:21:25,160 –> 00:21:27,920
\njudgement and how we can the
\njudgement can be something that <\/p>\n

405
\n00:21:28,320 –> 00:21:32,360
\nwe can actually look forward to.
\nYeah, to not give too much away.<\/p>\n

406
\n00:21:32,520 –> 00:21:33,440
\nExactly.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

407
\n00:21:33,640 –> 00:21:34,640
\nAll right, let’s jump into that
\nnow. <\/p>\n

408
\n00:21:44,400 –> 00:21:48,840
\nWelcome to our next segment and
\nthis segment is called What’s <\/p>\n

409
\n00:21:48,840 –> 00:21:51,240
\nYour Study?
\nAnd this week we have Josh <\/p>\n

410
\n00:21:51,320 –> 00:21:53,480
\nKempster joining with us very.
\nExcited. <\/p>\n

411
\n00:21:53,480 –> 00:21:55,560
\nTo have Josh.
\nWell, thanks Randy and George, I<\/p>\n

412
\n00:21:55,560 –> 00:21:56,720
\nactually am pretty excited about
\nthis. <\/p>\n

413
\n00:21:56,760 –> 00:21:58,600
\nAll right, good.
\nWe put it off a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

414
\n00:21:58,600 –> 00:22:01,000
\nYeah, it’s taken a while to get
\nhere, but we’re finally made it.<\/p>\n

415
\n00:22:01,280 –> 00:22:03,280
\nThat’s it.
\nWe’ve, we’ve bought it together.<\/p>\n

416
\n00:22:03,360 –> 00:22:06,320
\nAnyway, Josh, do you mind giving
\nus a bit of an introduction <\/p>\n

417
\n00:22:06,800 –> 00:22:08,800
\nabout yourself?
\nSure. <\/p>\n

418
\n00:22:08,840 –> 00:22:11,280
\nWell, you’ve said my name.
\nThat’s pretty key one. <\/p>\n

419
\n00:22:11,280 –> 00:22:12,680
\nWhat about?
\nYour second name. <\/p>\n

420
\n00:22:12,920 –> 00:22:16,400
\nYes, well, actually, funny
\nthing, my second name is an <\/p>\n

421
\n00:22:16,400 –> 00:22:18,480
\nindication to how original my
\nparents were. <\/p>\n

422
\n00:22:18,520 –> 00:22:22,320
\nThey named they gave me the same
\nsecond name as my dad and I gave<\/p>\n

423
\n00:22:22,320 –> 00:22:24,120
\nmy brother the same second name
\nas well. <\/p>\n

424
\n00:22:24,120 –> 00:22:27,600
\nSo we all have the name James
\nand my sisters are both have the<\/p>\n

425
\n00:22:27,600 –> 00:22:29,720
\nmiddle name Jane which is the
\nsame as my mum so. <\/p>\n

426
\n00:22:30,120 –> 00:22:33,840
\nThere’s there’s two boys with
\nJames and there’s 2 girls with <\/p>\n

427
\n00:22:33,840 –> 00:22:36,400
\nJane.
\nBoth of which are are parents <\/p>\n

428
\n00:22:36,760 –> 00:22:38,320
\nmiddle names as well.
\nFantastic. <\/p>\n

429
\n00:22:38,320 –> 00:22:40,680
\nMy parents are even less
\noriginal, we don’t even have <\/p>\n

430
\n00:22:40,680 –> 00:22:45,560
\nmiddle names.
\nOK, 27. <\/p>\n

431
\n00:22:46,640 –> 00:22:50,400
\nThoughts of thought so.
\nI was 27. <\/p>\n

432
\n00:22:50,400 –> 00:22:52,840
\nI go to Woodville Ecclesia in
\nAdelaide, get to see Raymond <\/p>\n

433
\n00:22:52,840 –> 00:22:55,400
\nGeorge fairly often.
\nThis is quite a treat. <\/p>\n

434
\n00:22:56,440 –> 00:22:57,680
\nWhat else do you want to know
\nabout me? <\/p>\n

435
\n00:22:58,240 –> 00:23:02,480
\nI guess probably that’s, that’s
\na good introduction to I guess <\/p>\n

436
\n00:23:02,480 –> 00:23:07,280
\nwho you are and this topic.
\nI guess you probably want to <\/p>\n

437
\n00:23:07,280 –> 00:23:09,000
\nintroduce that because this is
\nan exciting one. <\/p>\n

438
\n00:23:09,000 –> 00:23:11,880
\nThis is something that I don’t
\nthink I’ve really had much on. <\/p>\n

439
\n00:23:12,200 –> 00:23:16,160
\nThere’s one that comes to mind
\nparticularly on it, but I wanted<\/p>\n

440
\n00:23:16,160 –> 00:23:18,280
\nyou to give us a good
\ninstruction to what it is. <\/p>\n

441
\n00:23:18,760 –> 00:23:23,520
\nAll right, so the subject that
\nI’ve been studying a bit, which <\/p>\n

442
\n00:23:23,520 –> 00:23:27,880
\ncame from some questions I had,
\nbut also a talk I was asked to <\/p>\n

443
\n00:23:27,880 –> 00:23:29,240
\ndo.
\nThere was good resurrection and <\/p>\n

444
\n00:23:29,240 –> 00:23:31,320
\njudgement that they wanted to
\nfocus mainly on the judgement <\/p>\n

445
\n00:23:31,320 –> 00:23:34,840
\nseat, which was why I I also
\nwanted to focus on that because <\/p>\n

446
\n00:23:34,840 –> 00:23:38,320
\nIA lot of questions about that.
\nAnd I think some sometimes I <\/p>\n

447
\n00:23:38,320 –> 00:23:39,640
\njust didn’t really gel in my
\nhead. <\/p>\n

448
\n00:23:39,640 –> 00:23:44,520
\nThings like, you know, why is
\nthere a judgement seat if like <\/p>\n

449
\n00:23:44,520 –> 00:23:48,480
\nGod knows exactly who we are?
\nWhat’s the whole, the reason for<\/p>\n

450
\n00:23:48,480 –> 00:23:50,280
\nthis process?
\nWhat’s it actually look like? <\/p>\n

451
\n00:23:51,280 –> 00:23:55,600
\nAnd you know, if we say we’re
\nsaved by grace, why do we go so <\/p>\n

452
\n00:23:55,600 –> 00:23:58,040
\nmuch into works things like
\nthat? <\/p>\n

453
\n00:23:58,040 –> 00:24:01,080
\nAnd you know, where is the
\njudgement seat? <\/p>\n

454
\n00:24:01,080 –> 00:24:02,600
\nAre there really angels
\ninvolved? <\/p>\n

455
\n00:24:02,600 –> 00:24:05,360
\nAre we at like some big campsite
\nat Sinai? <\/p>\n

456
\n00:24:06,560 –> 00:24:10,160
\nYeah, all those sort of
\nquestions got me interested in <\/p>\n

457
\n00:24:10,160 –> 00:24:11,880
\nit.
\nI wouldn’t claim to have all the<\/p>\n

458
\n00:24:11,920 –> 00:24:13,760
\nanswers, but.
\nYeah, and that’s the thing <\/p>\n

459
\n00:24:13,760 –> 00:24:16,640
\nthat’s probably worth mentioning
\nis, is there’s a lot that we <\/p>\n

460
\n00:24:16,640 –> 00:24:17,960
\nstill don’t know about the
\njudgement scene. <\/p>\n

461
\n00:24:19,240 –> 00:24:22,280
\nLike we know that it will occur.
\nWe know roughly the time frame <\/p>\n

462
\n00:24:22,760 –> 00:24:25,920
\nwhen Christ returns.
\nBut there’s a lot of things that<\/p>\n

463
\n00:24:25,920 –> 00:24:28,160
\nwe still kind of in the dark on
\nbecause it’s not really up. <\/p>\n

464
\n00:24:28,160 –> 00:24:30,160
\nLike it’s something so far out
\nof our control. <\/p>\n

465
\n00:24:30,480 –> 00:24:33,440
\nWe’re not the ones judging.
\nIt’s ultimately in God, God in <\/p>\n

466
\n00:24:33,440 –> 00:24:36,560
\nChrist’s hand, and it’s
\nsomething that we’re just going <\/p>\n

467
\n00:24:36,560 –> 00:24:39,960
\nto be participating in and we’re
\njust going to be beneficiaries <\/p>\n

468
\n00:24:39,960 –> 00:24:43,560
\nof, you know, judge righteous or
\njudge unrighteous, I guess, as <\/p>\n

469
\n00:24:43,560 –> 00:24:43,880
\nwell.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

470
\n00:24:45,320 –> 00:24:48,960
\nSo what what would your
\nperception of the judgement say <\/p>\n

471
\n00:24:48,960 –> 00:24:53,800
\nhave been growing up like?
\nWas it, you know, did your ideas<\/p>\n

472
\n00:24:53,800 –> 00:24:56,920
\nkind of what were they falling
\nabove what your family or what <\/p>\n

473
\n00:24:56,920 –> 00:25:00,120
\nyour parents taught you or what
\nyour you heard from the platform<\/p>\n

474
\n00:25:00,120 –> 00:25:02,680
\nat your meeting?
\nWhat was sort of your perception<\/p>\n

475
\n00:25:03,120 –> 00:25:05,400
\nof the judgement and did that
\nchange over time? <\/p>\n

476
\n00:25:05,520 –> 00:25:09,640
\nI think I don’t know about you,
\nbut I couldn’t pin if it was <\/p>\n

477
\n00:25:09,640 –> 00:25:12,240
\nexactly like parents or ecclesia
\nor not, but some of the like <\/p>\n

478
\n00:25:12,240 –> 00:25:17,240
\ncore memories of that formulated
\nmy picture of the judgement. <\/p>\n

479
\n00:25:17,240 –> 00:25:20,680
\nSo it would be some meditations
\nthat I might have heard, like <\/p>\n

480
\n00:25:20,680 –> 00:25:25,280
\necclesial events or Bible school
\nor young people’s events where <\/p>\n

481
\n00:25:25,480 –> 00:25:31,760
\nwe get this picture like where
\nlined up, we’re in camps and we <\/p>\n

482
\n00:25:31,760 –> 00:25:35,600
\nsit down with an Angel in a tent
\nin front of sign up Mount Sinai <\/p>\n

483
\n00:25:35,600 –> 00:25:38,240
\nand we’re going through our
\nlives and it’s this like long <\/p>\n

484
\n00:25:38,960 –> 00:25:43,120
\nyear, years long process.
\nAnd one day it’s your turn after<\/p>\n

485
\n00:25:43,120 –> 00:25:45,960
\ngoing through your whole life.
\nI couldn’t pin. <\/p>\n

486
\n00:25:46,280 –> 00:25:48,800
\nI think those sort of things are
\nthe where where people have <\/p>\n

487
\n00:25:48,800 –> 00:25:52,800
\ndramatised it, not claiming that
\nthat’s actually exactly how it <\/p>\n

488
\n00:25:52,800 –> 00:25:56,800
\nworked, but tried to dramatise
\nit to get us into the mode of <\/p>\n

489
\n00:25:57,480 –> 00:26:00,640
\nthe power of what it would be
\nlike to be accepted versus the <\/p>\n

490
\n00:26:00,640 –> 00:26:04,080
\ndread to be rejected.
\nI think people have dramatized <\/p>\n

491
\n00:26:04,080 –> 00:26:07,760
\nand that became like almost fact
\nin my head that then one day <\/p>\n

492
\n00:26:07,760 –> 00:26:10,800
\nI’ll line up and see someone go
\none way and someone go another <\/p>\n

493
\n00:26:11,560 –> 00:26:13,640
\nafter talking it through with an
\nAngel. <\/p>\n

494
\n00:26:14,440 –> 00:26:18,480
\nIs it like, what about, is it
\nsomething that maybe perhaps <\/p>\n

495
\n00:26:18,480 –> 00:26:19,880
\nyounger, it was something you
\nfeared? <\/p>\n

496
\n00:26:19,920 –> 00:26:22,240
\nIs that if that’s an appropriate
\nterm to use? <\/p>\n

497
\n00:26:23,040 –> 00:26:25,760
\nBecause for some, for a lot of
\npeople, it’s still, it’s an <\/p>\n

498
\n00:26:25,760 –> 00:26:29,080
\nintimidating topic.
\nYeah, I’m actually probably on <\/p>\n

499
\n00:26:29,080 –> 00:26:34,080
\nthe wrong side of this.
\nLike I think that I’ve never <\/p>\n

500
\n00:26:34,080 –> 00:26:38,880
\nfeared enough in a way.
\nAnd I know that sounds wrong. <\/p>\n

501
\n00:26:38,880 –> 00:26:42,280
\nLike we’re now in like a lot of
\npeople encourage us to don’t <\/p>\n

502
\n00:26:42,280 –> 00:26:45,160
\nfear the judgement seat, but
\nthere obviously is something to <\/p>\n

503
\n00:26:45,160 –> 00:26:49,160
\nfear about the judgement seat.
\nRejection is a scary thing, but <\/p>\n

504
\n00:26:49,160 –> 00:26:53,880
\nI funnily enough, have never
\nconsidered it enough to like <\/p>\n

505
\n00:26:53,880 –> 00:26:56,080
\nreally be terrified or fearful
\nat the thought. <\/p>\n

506
\n00:26:56,080 –> 00:26:59,720
\nWhereas I know I’ve talked to
\nother people and I’ve talked to <\/p>\n

507
\n00:26:59,720 –> 00:27:03,040
\nAnnie, my sister, that was like
\nalways her probably biggest fear<\/p>\n

508
\n00:27:03,040 –> 00:27:04,360
\nwhen she was young.
\nIt was rejection at the <\/p>\n

509
\n00:27:04,360 –> 00:27:05,600
\njudgement seat.
\nIt just wasn’t something that <\/p>\n

510
\n00:27:05,600 –> 00:27:09,720
\nwas in my consciousness.
\nBut I think there is there is <\/p>\n

511
\n00:27:09,720 –> 00:27:13,240
\nsome level of fear that we are
\ntold from various Bible quotes <\/p>\n

512
\n00:27:13,240 –> 00:27:16,800
\nthat people do have for for the
\njudgement seat. <\/p>\n

513
\n00:27:17,800 –> 00:27:20,520
\nDo you feel then that your
\nperception has changed and over <\/p>\n

514
\n00:27:20,520 –> 00:27:23,160
\ntime, or it’s almost been
\nstrengthened by what you already<\/p>\n

515
\n00:27:23,160 –> 00:27:25,800
\nknow?
\nProbably a little bit changed <\/p>\n

516
\n00:27:25,920 –> 00:27:29,560
\nover time, yeah.
\nBut like, there’s, there’s some <\/p>\n

517
\n00:27:29,560 –> 00:27:32,240
\ndetails like of the stuff that I
\nwas just talking about that <\/p>\n

518
\n00:27:32,560 –> 00:27:36,080
\ndefinitely we, we don’t have any
\nbiblical basis for. <\/p>\n

519
\n00:27:36,080 –> 00:27:38,120
\nSo my perception of the
\njudgement seat has probably <\/p>\n

520
\n00:27:38,120 –> 00:27:41,320
\nbecome more pared back just to
\nthe bare bones of what we do <\/p>\n

521
\n00:27:41,320 –> 00:27:43,960
\nknow.
\nAnd the rest we’ll find out, I <\/p>\n

522
\n00:27:44,000 –> 00:27:45,280
\nthink.
\nAmazing. <\/p>\n

523
\n00:27:45,600 –> 00:27:47,920
\nYeah.
\nDid you feel yourself having to <\/p>\n

524
\n00:27:47,920 –> 00:27:51,200
\nsort of because you said you did
\nit for a youth group talk, did <\/p>\n

525
\n00:27:51,200 –> 00:27:56,160
\nyou feel yourself having to sort
\nof censor to a degree or you <\/p>\n

526
\n00:27:56,160 –> 00:28:01,160
\njust told them straight, but
\nthis is what the judgement is. <\/p>\n

527
\n00:28:01,160 –> 00:28:04,920
\nThis is what the Bible tells us.
\nYeah, I didn’t feel like I have <\/p>\n

528
\n00:28:04,920 –> 00:28:07,320
\nto censor.
\nI’d really probably censor what <\/p>\n

529
\n00:28:07,320 –> 00:28:10,400
\nI say enough.
\nThe thing that I actually <\/p>\n

530
\n00:28:10,400 –> 00:28:13,160
\nfocused on it could have, it
\ncould have been like a multi <\/p>\n

531
\n00:28:13,160 –> 00:28:15,120
\npart series, but it was just one
\nyouth group. <\/p>\n

532
\n00:28:15,120 –> 00:28:17,720
\nAnd I think the thing I really
\nwanted to get across that was <\/p>\n

533
\n00:28:17,720 –> 00:28:20,400
\neye opening to me was the
\npurpose of the judgement seat. <\/p>\n

534
\n00:28:20,720 –> 00:28:24,240
\nBecause that’s one of the big
\nquestions, it seems when when if<\/p>\n

535
\n00:28:24,240 –> 00:28:26,080
\nyou were to pose the question
\nlike what’s the purpose of the <\/p>\n

536
\n00:28:26,080 –> 00:28:27,960
\njudgement seat, it’d seem
\nobvious. <\/p>\n

537
\n00:28:28,120 –> 00:28:32,560
\nLike it would you’d say to
\nseparate the righteous from the <\/p>\n

538
\n00:28:32,560 –> 00:28:35,360
\nunrighteous.
\nSure, that’s like definitely the<\/p>\n

539
\n00:28:35,360 –> 00:28:40,880
\nmain objective, but why do we go
\nabout why does Christ God go <\/p>\n

540
\n00:28:40,880 –> 00:28:42,560
\nabout it in the way that he
\ndoes? <\/p>\n

541
\n00:28:42,880 –> 00:28:46,360
\nBecause there’s a lot of quotes
\nthat mention things like giving <\/p>\n

542
\n00:28:46,360 –> 00:28:48,200
\naccount at the judgement seat of
\nChrist. <\/p>\n

543
\n00:28:48,200 –> 00:28:51,000
\nWhy do we have to give account?
\nWhy does anyone have to give <\/p>\n

544
\n00:28:51,000 –> 00:28:53,320
\nsome sort of account?
\nIsn’t it gives you like a <\/p>\n

545
\n00:28:53,320 –> 00:28:56,640
\ncourtroom type setting where you
\ngot your lawyers on one side and<\/p>\n

546
\n00:28:56,640 –> 00:29:04,400
\nyou’re trying to justify
\nyourself And why is there like <\/p>\n

547
\n00:29:04,960 –> 00:29:07,680
\ndifferent questions?
\nWhy do we go through our works? <\/p>\n

548
\n00:29:07,680 –> 00:29:09,960
\nIf that’s a picture that we have
\nof the judgement seat when we <\/p>\n

549
\n00:29:09,960 –> 00:29:13,440
\nsay that we’re saved by grace
\nand not works. <\/p>\n

550
\n00:29:14,280 –> 00:29:19,440
\nSo the purpose then I think and
\nmy favorite quote that I now go <\/p>\n

551
\n00:29:19,440 –> 00:29:23,360
\nto or the a pair of quotes I go
\nto in on that front is Romans <\/p>\n

552
\n00:29:23,360 –> 00:29:27,240
\n14.
\nThere’s quite a lot about the <\/p>\n

553
\n00:29:27,240 –> 00:29:31,040
\njudgement seat, which made a
\nchallenging study in itself <\/p>\n

554
\n00:29:31,040 –> 00:29:34,600
\nbecause it’s it’s sort of spread
\nall over the place. <\/p>\n

555
\n00:29:34,600 –> 00:29:37,040
\nThere’s no one going here for
\nthe judgement seat. <\/p>\n

556
\n00:29:37,040 –> 00:29:45,120
\nBut Romans 14 verse 10 to 12, I
\nthink are the ones that the <\/p>\n

557
\n00:29:45,120 –> 00:29:47,120
\nverses that I really like to
\npick it up. <\/p>\n

558
\n00:29:47,920 –> 00:29:50,600
\nWhy does that judge?
\nSo the context is like weak and <\/p>\n

559
\n00:29:50,600 –> 00:29:55,280
\nstrong brother, but that’s also
\nkind of a can stand alone <\/p>\n

560
\n00:29:55,280 –> 00:29:56,920
\noutside the context of it as
\nwell. <\/p>\n

561
\n00:29:57,240 –> 00:30:00,600
\nIt does say, for we must, we
\nshall all stand before the <\/p>\n

562
\n00:30:00,600 –> 00:30:03,160
\njudgement seat of Christ.
\nFor it is written, as I live, <\/p>\n

563
\n00:30:03,160 –> 00:30:05,840
\nsaith the Lord, every knee shall
\nbow to me, and every tongue <\/p>\n

564
\n00:30:05,840 –> 00:30:08,520
\nshall confess to God.
\nSo then every one of us shall <\/p>\n

565
\n00:30:08,520 –> 00:30:13,440
\ngive account of himself to God.
\nSo there it says, as I live, <\/p>\n

566
\n00:30:13,520 –> 00:30:16,040
\nevery knee shall bow to me, and
\nevery tongue confess to God. <\/p>\n

567
\n00:30:16,360 –> 00:30:21,880
\nIt’s quoted from Isaiah 45 and
\nI’ve never really made that <\/p>\n

568
\n00:30:21,880 –> 00:30:24,520
\nconnection before that it’s
\ncomes from Isaiah 45. <\/p>\n

569
\n00:30:24,520 –> 00:30:30,640
\nBut I love the way Paul often
\njust throws in and a quote <\/p>\n

570
\n00:30:30,640 –> 00:30:35,240
\nreverse and the context actually
\nunlocks what he’s saying even <\/p>\n

571
\n00:30:35,240 –> 00:30:37,680
\nmore than just the verse that he
\npicks. <\/p>\n

572
\n00:30:37,680 –> 00:30:42,280
\nBecause if you go to the next
\nverse in Isaiah 45, so Isaiah <\/p>\n

573
\n00:30:42,280 –> 00:30:48,200
\n4523 says the whole context is a
\njudgement seat picture because <\/p>\n

574
\n00:30:48,200 –> 00:30:50,920
\nit says assemble yourselves and
\ncome draw near together. <\/p>\n

575
\n00:30:50,920 –> 00:30:53,960
\nThe ye that are escaped to the
\nnations, which is us we’re we’re<\/p>\n

576
\n00:30:53,960 –> 00:30:56,720
\nescaped out of the nations.
\nThat’s verse 20. <\/p>\n

577
\n00:30:56,720 –> 00:31:02,840
\nBut then verse 2322 look unto me
\nand be saved all the ends of the<\/p>\n

578
\n00:31:02,840 –> 00:31:05,440
\nearth, for I am a God, I’m God,
\nand there is none else. <\/p>\n

579
\n00:31:05,920 –> 00:31:08,880
\nAnd verse 23 is the verse that
\npull quotes. <\/p>\n

580
\n00:31:08,880 –> 00:31:11,640
\nI’ve sworn by myself, the word
\nis gone out of my mouth in <\/p>\n

581
\n00:31:11,640 –> 00:31:14,680
\nrighteousness, and shall not
\nreturn that unto me every knee <\/p>\n

582
\n00:31:14,680 –> 00:31:18,920
\nshall bow, every tongue confess.
\nFor what purpose verse 24 says, <\/p>\n

583
\n00:31:18,920 –> 00:31:22,600
\nsurely shall one say in the Lord
\nhave thy righteousness and <\/p>\n

584
\n00:31:22,600 –> 00:31:27,120
\nstrength even to him shall men
\ncome and all that are incensed <\/p>\n

585
\n00:31:27,120 –> 00:31:31,240
\nagainst him shall be ashamed.
\nSo the purpose of the judgement <\/p>\n

586
\n00:31:31,240 –> 00:31:34,880
\nstate then in my mind the the
\nshortened version after all of <\/p>\n

587
\n00:31:34,880 –> 00:31:41,360
\nthat rambling is that someone
\ncan say, surely in Yahweh have <\/p>\n

588
\n00:31:41,360 –> 00:31:44,560
\nthy righteousness and strength.
\nIt’s not mine, it’s not anything<\/p>\n

589
\n00:31:44,560 –> 00:31:46,800
\nof me.
\nSo the whole process that builds<\/p>\n

590
\n00:31:46,800 –> 00:31:50,240
\nup to that has to get us to the
\npoint where we go like genuinely<\/p>\n

591
\n00:31:50,240 –> 00:31:53,440
\nwith all our heart and soul
\nrealize, yeah, I’m nothing. <\/p>\n

592
\n00:31:53,680 –> 00:31:56,400
\nWe say that now we know that’s
\nwhere we need to get. <\/p>\n

593
\n00:31:56,400 –> 00:31:59,520
\nBut are we truly there in in our
\nheart? <\/p>\n

594
\n00:31:59,520 –> 00:32:04,120
\nHave we got to the point where
\nwe go only in God do I have <\/p>\n

595
\n00:32:04,120 –> 00:32:06,520
\nrighteousness and strength.
\nAnd those that aren’t prepared <\/p>\n

596
\n00:32:06,520 –> 00:32:10,320
\nto say that all those that are
\nincensed against him that would <\/p>\n

597
\n00:32:10,320 –> 00:32:13,440
\nbe ashamed.
\nWell, that would be those that <\/p>\n

598
\n00:32:14,320 –> 00:32:15,760
\nhave weeping and gnashing of
\nteeth. <\/p>\n

599
\n00:32:16,520 –> 00:32:19,680
\nYeah, that’s such a good point
\nactually, because like I think <\/p>\n

600
\n00:32:19,680 –> 00:32:23,360
\nabout George and I was speaking
\nabout this before the show <\/p>\n

601
\n00:32:23,360 –> 00:32:27,840
\nstarted about how it feels at
\ntimes up and and not to take <\/p>\n

602
\n00:32:27,840 –> 00:32:29,880
\nanything like away from God’s
\nmaster plan. <\/p>\n

603
\n00:32:29,880 –> 00:32:32,640
\nBut it feels like an our current
\nday and age that it feels like <\/p>\n

604
\n00:32:32,640 –> 00:32:36,280
\nan old wives tale of the Bible,
\nthe story of it God, because our<\/p>\n

605
\n00:32:36,280 –> 00:32:39,720
\nsociety is so modern and new.
\nIt seems like so different from <\/p>\n

606
\n00:32:39,720 –> 00:32:43,880
\nlike God’s plan and purpose.
\nBut that whole point of it being<\/p>\n

607
\n00:32:43,880 –> 00:32:47,560
\nlike man has to recognize his
\nposition before God. <\/p>\n

608
\n00:32:48,080 –> 00:32:49,920
\nThat is such a great point
\nbecause it’s so hard even as <\/p>\n

609
\n00:32:49,920 –> 00:32:52,640
\nBible believers just to stay
\nhumble, like to have that humble<\/p>\n

610
\n00:32:52,640 –> 00:32:56,400
\nand contrite spirit.
\nIt’s like it feels so <\/p>\n

611
\n00:32:56,400 –> 00:32:59,240
\nchallenging because the more you
\ndo think about it, the more you <\/p>\n

612
\n00:32:59,240 –> 00:33:01,200
\ncan always think like it’s the
\nopposite. <\/p>\n

613
\n00:33:01,200 –> 00:33:02,720
\nLike you think you’re humble,
\nyou’re not. <\/p>\n

614
\n00:33:03,120 –> 00:33:05,760
\nAnd so it’s like it’s, it’s
\nalmost impossible to get to that<\/p>\n

615
\n00:33:05,760 –> 00:33:09,000
\npoint of recognizing.
\nAnd it’s that similar to in <\/p>\n

616
\n00:33:09,320 –> 00:33:13,160
\nExodus when Moses goes before or
\nwhen God speaks to Moses, the <\/p>\n

617
\n00:33:13,160 –> 00:33:17,760
\nwhole plan of the Exodus was to
\nknow that that they shall know <\/p>\n

618
\n00:33:17,840 –> 00:33:20,600
\nthat I am God.
\nAnd like his power was actually <\/p>\n

619
\n00:33:20,600 –> 00:33:23,760
\ndemonstrated in the earth.
\nAnd it’s that same ideas that <\/p>\n

620
\n00:33:23,800 –> 00:33:27,520
\nGod had to bring Pharaoh and
\nEgypt to its knees through such <\/p>\n

621
\n00:33:27,520 –> 00:33:29,280
\na disastrous event.
\nAnd obviously the judgement <\/p>\n

622
\n00:33:29,280 –> 00:33:33,760
\nisn’t as playwritten as that,
\nbut it’s the same like attitude <\/p>\n

623
\n00:33:33,760 –> 00:33:38,200
\nand the same idea of knowing
\nGod, that we have to know <\/p>\n

624
\n00:33:38,200 –> 00:33:41,080
\nopposition before God’s throne.
\n100% yeah. <\/p>\n

625
\n00:33:41,280 –> 00:33:43,840
\nThere’s the purpose of the
\njudgement seat is no different <\/p>\n

626
\n00:33:43,840 –> 00:33:45,520
\nto the rest of the purpose of
\nGod with the earth. <\/p>\n

627
\n00:33:45,560 –> 00:33:50,120
\nIt’s to bring, it’s to make man
\nhumble and God’s glory shine. <\/p>\n

628
\n00:33:50,120 –> 00:33:51,560
\nIt’s to fill the earth with his
\nglory. <\/p>\n

629
\n00:33:52,440 –> 00:33:57,640
\nAnd if any man, any person got
\ninto the judgement seat without <\/p>\n

630
\n00:33:57,640 –> 00:34:00,160
\nfirst sorry, got into the
\nKingdom or gained immortality <\/p>\n

631
\n00:34:00,160 –> 00:34:03,440
\nwithout first recognizing that
\nonly in God, our righteousness <\/p>\n

632
\n00:34:03,440 –> 00:34:06,600
\nand strength, then there’s some
\nbit of man’s glory in there. <\/p>\n

633
\n00:34:06,840 –> 00:34:09,080
\nBut that has to be removed.
\nThat’s true. <\/p>\n

634
\n00:34:10,239 –> 00:34:14,480
\nYeah, I’ve heard.
\nExcuse me, the judgement has <\/p>\n

635
\n00:34:14,480 –> 00:34:19,440
\nalmost been this final, this
\nfinal testing phase, if that’s <\/p>\n

636
\n00:34:19,480 –> 00:34:22,159
\nthe right word for it.
\nBut yeah, that that final <\/p>\n

637
\n00:34:22,440 –> 00:34:27,679
\nproving the final going through
\nthe fire in a sense to to say, <\/p>\n

638
\n00:34:27,679 –> 00:34:31,120
\nbecause, you know, the Bible
\nsays no flesh shall glorify <\/p>\n

639
\n00:34:31,120 –> 00:34:34,440
\nthemselves before me.
\nIt’s almost like that final <\/p>\n

640
\n00:34:36,000 –> 00:34:38,520
\nappreciation, that final
\nhumility, because I think, you <\/p>\n

641
\n00:34:38,520 –> 00:34:43,239
\nknow, in our lives today, it’s
\nquite difficult to submit <\/p>\n

642
\n00:34:43,239 –> 00:34:46,639
\nourselves before God.
\nBecause I think the thing about <\/p>\n

643
\n00:34:46,639 –> 00:34:50,760
\nthe judgement said is everything
\nwill be quite will be open and <\/p>\n

644
\n00:34:50,760 –> 00:34:54,639
\nhonest with with God before God.
\nAnd it’ll be very physical and <\/p>\n

645
\n00:34:54,639 –> 00:34:56,600
\nvisual.
\nAnd it’s almost like it’s this <\/p>\n

646
\n00:34:56,600 –> 00:35:00,400
\nfinal testing the triangle of
\nour faith. <\/p>\n

647
\n00:35:00,760 –> 00:35:06,560
\nYeah, the there’s no, like when
\nChrist returns, there’s nothing <\/p>\n

648
\n00:35:06,560 –> 00:35:10,360
\nyou can do to change whether
\nyou’ll be in the Kingdom or not.<\/p>\n

649
\n00:35:10,680 –> 00:35:13,520
\nBut there’s further character
\naffinement that can definitely <\/p>\n

650
\n00:35:13,520 –> 00:35:16,640
\nbe done.
\nLike we’re not, we’re not all <\/p>\n

651
\n00:35:16,640 –> 00:35:20,960
\nthose people who are transformed
\npeople and ready for the the <\/p>\n

652
\n00:35:20,960 –> 00:35:24,520
\nKingdom of God or, sorry, ready
\nfor Christ’s return and not <\/p>\n

653
\n00:35:24,520 –> 00:35:26,440
\nnecessarily ready for the
\nKingdom of God. <\/p>\n

654
\n00:35:26,600 –> 00:35:29,000
\nThere’s a there’s a process that
\nstill needs to be developed to <\/p>\n

655
\n00:35:29,000 –> 00:35:30,520
\nbe brought through the through
\nthe fire. <\/p>\n

656
\n00:35:30,720 –> 00:35:31,720
\nYeah, yeah.
\nAbsolutely. <\/p>\n

657
\n00:35:32,360 –> 00:35:35,160
\nGood point.
\nDo you find this topic because <\/p>\n

658
\n00:35:35,160 –> 00:35:38,720
\nit’s so like it’s so hard to
\nimplement this topic into like a<\/p>\n

659
\n00:35:38,720 –> 00:35:41,640
\ndaily life like it’s so hard to
\nbe like thinking about Oh yeah, <\/p>\n

660
\n00:35:41,640 –> 00:35:43,520
\njudgement.
\nSay, you know, going down <\/p>\n

661
\n00:35:43,520 –> 00:35:47,480
\nGrenfell St. on your way to work
\nbecause it’s such like it <\/p>\n

662
\n00:35:47,480 –> 00:35:51,320
\nbecause it’s and it’s the return
\nof Christ stage. <\/p>\n

663
\n00:35:52,040 –> 00:35:55,360
\nDo you ever feel, have you being
\nable to think about that and <\/p>\n

664
\n00:35:55,360 –> 00:35:57,800
\nlike meditate on some of the
\nthings that you’ve studied in <\/p>\n

665
\n00:35:57,800 –> 00:35:59,760
\nthis, in this passage during
\nyour days? <\/p>\n

666
\n00:35:59,920 –> 00:36:02,640
\nYeah, yeah, there’s probably two
\nthings that have actually been <\/p>\n

667
\n00:36:02,640 –> 00:36:07,080
\none of the more life changing
\nstudies that I’ve done out of <\/p>\n

668
\n00:36:07,080 –> 00:36:13,280
\nthis.
\nOne is that we know that God <\/p>\n

669
\n00:36:13,280 –> 00:36:16,120
\nsays that all the work, the
\nhidden works of darkness and all<\/p>\n

670
\n00:36:16,120 –> 00:36:21,880
\nthe councils of the heart will
\nbe revealed, and also that at <\/p>\n

671
\n00:36:21,880 –> 00:36:23,920
\nevery man’s work will be made
\nmanifest. <\/p>\n

672
\n00:36:23,920 –> 00:36:27,080
\nSo at the judgement seat,
\neveryone will be shown for what <\/p>\n

673
\n00:36:27,080 –> 00:36:29,800
\nthey really are and every single
\nwork will be shown, whether it <\/p>\n

674
\n00:36:29,800 –> 00:36:32,800
\nwas a work that should be burned
\nup or whether it was a work that<\/p>\n

675
\n00:36:32,800 –> 00:36:35,320
\nwas tried.
\nAnd that comes down to what was <\/p>\n

676
\n00:36:35,320 –> 00:36:38,720
\nin the councils of the heart.
\nSo that’s the first thing on a <\/p>\n

677
\n00:36:38,720 –> 00:36:44,680
\npractical point of view, if you
\nthink, did I say already the <\/p>\n

678
\n00:36:44,680 –> 00:36:47,760
\nquote like some men’s sins go
\nbeforehand, whereas others. <\/p>\n

679
\n00:36:48,280 –> 00:36:50,520
\nYeah, so there’s that quote as
\nwell. <\/p>\n

680
\n00:36:50,880 –> 00:36:53,720
\nSome men’s sins go beforehand
\nand others go after judgement. <\/p>\n

681
\n00:36:53,720 –> 00:36:58,040
\nI think it’s first Timothy 5.
\nThat basically means some people<\/p>\n

682
\n00:36:58,440 –> 00:37:01,360
\nwill be shown for what they are.
\nSome people’s sins will be <\/p>\n

683
\n00:37:01,360 –> 00:37:06,080
\nexposed here and now.
\nAnd that’s a, we know of that <\/p>\n

684
\n00:37:06,080 –> 00:37:09,200
\nhappening in our, like in our
\ncircles in Christadelphia <\/p>\n

685
\n00:37:09,600 –> 00:37:10,920
\npeople.
\nThere’s some people who’ve done <\/p>\n

686
\n00:37:10,920 –> 00:37:14,200
\nhorrible things, but they come
\nback from that. <\/p>\n

687
\n00:37:15,440 –> 00:37:17,720
\nBut I almost imagined they’ve
\ngot, they’re going to have an <\/p>\n

688
\n00:37:17,720 –> 00:37:20,240
\neasier time at judgement because
\nwe’ve all got those things that <\/p>\n

689
\n00:37:20,480 –> 00:37:22,200
\nwe hide.
\nThere’s the hidden counsels of <\/p>\n

690
\n00:37:22,200 –> 00:37:24,560
\nthe heart.
\nAnd it’s just means that it’s <\/p>\n

691
\n00:37:24,560 –> 00:37:27,480
\ngoing to be a bit of a rougher
\nburning stage for the rest of <\/p>\n

692
\n00:37:27,480 –> 00:37:29,680
\nus.
\nSome of them have kind of gone <\/p>\n

693
\n00:37:29,680 –> 00:37:31,560
\nthrough that humiliation process
\nnow. <\/p>\n

694
\n00:37:32,120 –> 00:37:34,200
\nYeah, that’s such a good point.
\nI’ve never even thought about <\/p>\n

695
\n00:37:34,200 –> 00:37:37,600
\nthat sort of thing before.
\nYeah, because someone said to me<\/p>\n

696
\n00:37:37,800 –> 00:37:40,960
\nthe other day that the judgement
\nsay isn’t about humiliating us, <\/p>\n

697
\n00:37:41,720 –> 00:37:44,080
\nbut I actually would disagree
\nwith that and say it is about <\/p>\n

698
\n00:37:44,080 –> 00:37:47,440
\nhumiliating us.
\nWe’re meant to be made <\/p>\n

699
\n00:37:47,680 –> 00:37:51,640
\nabsolutely humble.
\nIt’s that’s and it sounds like <\/p>\n

700
\n00:37:52,280 –> 00:37:56,320
\nit’s different from belittling,
\nbut it’s humiliating. <\/p>\n

701
\n00:37:57,320 –> 00:38:00,440
\nAnd the second practical thing,
\nthe more more practical thing <\/p>\n

702
\n00:38:00,440 –> 00:38:04,200
\nI’d say that I’ve learned is
\nthat that means that there are <\/p>\n

703
\n00:38:04,200 –> 00:38:06,640
\nhidden things that I probably
\ndon’t even realise that I’ve <\/p>\n

704
\n00:38:06,640 –> 00:38:09,000
\ndone wrong.
\nThat when I come to the <\/p>\n

705
\n00:38:09,000 –> 00:38:11,800
\njudgement seat and you know,
\nwhatever the judgement process <\/p>\n

706
\n00:38:11,800 –> 00:38:14,960
\nis exactly, whether that
\ninvolves an Angel or Christ <\/p>\n

707
\n00:38:15,200 –> 00:38:19,640
\nexposing my works, there’ll
\nprobably be things that he says <\/p>\n

708
\n00:38:19,640 –> 00:38:22,640
\nthat I was like, whoa, I just
\ndid that without thinking. <\/p>\n

709
\n00:38:22,640 –> 00:38:26,200
\nThat’s wrong, that’s immoral.
\nAnd that process has led me to <\/p>\n

710
\n00:38:26,200 –> 00:38:30,040
\nthink and self examine a lot
\nmore about everything I do. <\/p>\n

711
\n00:38:30,080 –> 00:38:32,520
\nThings like everyday things that
\nI do. <\/p>\n

712
\n00:38:33,120 –> 00:38:36,000
\nMaybe speeding or, you know,
\njumping in the car and not <\/p>\n

713
\n00:38:36,000 –> 00:38:39,080
\nputting a seat belt on, like
\ndriving down the street before <\/p>\n

714
\n00:38:39,080 –> 00:38:41,960
\nputting it on.
\nOr like using someone else’s <\/p>\n

715
\n00:38:41,960 –> 00:38:44,400
\nNetflix or downloading audio
\nthings. <\/p>\n

716
\n00:38:44,720 –> 00:38:47,480
\nYeah, downloading audio books
\nfor free or like watching movies<\/p>\n

717
\n00:38:47,480 –> 00:38:50,600
\non free websites.
\nThat’s that’s stealing and it <\/p>\n

718
\n00:38:50,600 –> 00:38:53,440
\ndoesn’t matter like, and
\nthere’ll be things like that I <\/p>\n

719
\n00:38:53,440 –> 00:38:56,120
\nhaven’t thought of, Yeah.
\nBecause we just, we justify it <\/p>\n

720
\n00:38:56,120 –> 00:38:57,720
\nwhere it’s like, oh, it doesn’t
\neven mean anything. <\/p>\n

721
\n00:38:57,720 –> 00:38:59,600
\nNo one would care.
\nExactly because it sort. <\/p>\n

722
\n00:38:59,600 –> 00:39:01,400
\nOf works in the opposite way I’m
\nin. <\/p>\n

723
\n00:39:01,560 –> 00:39:06,000
\nPlaces like Matthew tell us that
\nthe people who did good before <\/p>\n

724
\n00:39:06,360 –> 00:39:09,560
\nJesus Christ and who were judged
\naccordingly said they didn’t <\/p>\n

725
\n00:39:09,560 –> 00:39:11,840
\neven realise they were doing
\nthem, it was just a way of life <\/p>\n

726
\n00:39:11,840 –> 00:39:13,760
\nfor them.
\nSo yeah, it makes sense that <\/p>\n

727
\n00:39:13,760 –> 00:39:15,760
\nalmost the opposite is true as
\nwell. <\/p>\n

728
\n00:39:15,880 –> 00:39:18,240
\nYeah, so I’d say that’s the big
\nthing. <\/p>\n

729
\n00:39:18,320 –> 00:39:21,200
\nI’ve probably more carefully
\nself examined a lot of the <\/p>\n

730
\n00:39:21,200 –> 00:39:23,760
\nthings that I do and not just
\nglossed over them. <\/p>\n

731
\n00:39:24,120 –> 00:39:26,880
\nBeing like this is exactly the
\nsort of thing that Christ will <\/p>\n

732
\n00:39:27,080 –> 00:39:30,560
\ngo, no, you’re doing this, We’re
\nnot just going to gloss over <\/p>\n

733
\n00:39:30,560 –> 00:39:32,360
\nthat.
\nYou do need to realize before <\/p>\n

734
\n00:39:32,360 –> 00:39:34,640
\nyou’re made immortal that that’s
\nnot an acceptable. <\/p>\n

735
\n00:39:34,640 –> 00:39:35,920
\nPractice.
\nThat’s true, yeah. <\/p>\n

736
\n00:39:36,280 –> 00:39:38,000
\nYeah.
\nAnd that would, I feel like <\/p>\n

737
\n00:39:38,000 –> 00:39:40,240
\nthat’s actually a comforting
\nthing because you’re learning if<\/p>\n

738
\n00:39:40,240 –> 00:39:44,720
\nyou are able to acknowledge
\nthose habitual sins of speeding <\/p>\n

739
\n00:39:44,720 –> 00:39:48,440
\nor using someone else’s Netflix
\npassword or, or whatever it is, <\/p>\n

740
\n00:39:49,680 –> 00:39:52,000
\nit it brings you to that.
\nIt’s like it makes you almost <\/p>\n

741
\n00:39:52,000 –> 00:39:54,200
\nreshape your thinking where
\nyou’re like, oh, that is <\/p>\n

742
\n00:39:54,200 –> 00:39:56,400
\nactually bad.
\nAnd that teaches you that <\/p>\n

743
\n00:39:56,400 –> 00:39:59,360
\nhumility.
\nI’d, I’d suggest maybe like at <\/p>\n

744
\n00:39:59,360 –> 00:40:01,400
\nan earlier stage than than what
\nit could be. <\/p>\n

745
\n00:40:01,680 –> 00:40:03,640
\nAnd so it’s kind of like a
\npositive thing because like when<\/p>\n

746
\n00:40:03,640 –> 00:40:06,440
\nyou go on a Sunday morning or,
\nyou know, when you do the bread <\/p>\n

747
\n00:40:06,440 –> 00:40:08,600
\nand the wine and you examine
\nyourself, you’ve now got these <\/p>\n

748
\n00:40:08,600 –> 00:40:10,840
\nthings where you’re like, these
\nare some more things I can work <\/p>\n

749
\n00:40:10,840 –> 00:40:12,160
\non.
\nAnd you you become before the <\/p>\n

750
\n00:40:12,160 –> 00:40:14,600
\ncross.
\nBefore Christ’s body even more <\/p>\n

751
\n00:40:14,600 –> 00:40:18,000
\nin depth, because one thing I’ve
\ngot run in my margin, especially<\/p>\n

752
\n00:40:18,000 –> 00:40:21,560
\non Sunday or when it comes to
\nself examination, is the like <\/p>\n

753
\n00:40:21,560 –> 00:40:23,640
\nthe more you sin, the more
\nyou’re forgiven. <\/p>\n

754
\n00:40:23,960 –> 00:40:26,800
\nHence the more you love because
\nyou’ve been getting forgiven <\/p>\n

755
\n00:40:26,800 –> 00:40:30,640
\nthis massive amount of way.
\nAnd the more you can acknowledge<\/p>\n

756
\n00:40:30,640 –> 00:40:32,560
\nthat you do wrong, the more you
\nshould actually love. <\/p>\n

757
\n00:40:32,560 –> 00:40:35,520
\nAnd it’s actually like it’s a an
\noptimistic thing in the way. <\/p>\n

758
\n00:40:35,520 –> 00:40:37,400
\nIt’s like you’re able to
\nacknowledge where it’s wrong. <\/p>\n

759
\n00:40:37,400 –> 00:40:39,400
\nAnd because of that, it’s like,
\nhow good is this that you’ve got<\/p>\n

760
\n00:40:39,400 –> 00:40:40,680
\nto help out of it.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

761
\n00:40:41,040 –> 00:40:45,200
\nYeah, exactly.
\nBecause I sort of from, from my <\/p>\n

762
\n00:40:45,200 –> 00:40:48,600
\nown perspective, the judgement
\nseat has been, and you know, <\/p>\n

763
\n00:40:48,600 –> 00:40:51,800
\nThis is why I feel people said
\nit’s going to take forever to go<\/p>\n

764
\n00:40:51,800 –> 00:40:53,960
\nthrough the judgement because
\neveryone’s sin is going to be <\/p>\n

765
\n00:40:53,960 –> 00:40:57,440
\nexposed.
\nBut it’s never sat right with <\/p>\n

766
\n00:40:57,440 –> 00:40:59,600
\nme.
\nIf we confess our sins and <\/p>\n

767
\n00:40:59,600 –> 00:41:02,640
\nbelieve our sins are forgiven
\nin, in this life, we’ll pray <\/p>\n

768
\n00:41:02,640 –> 00:41:06,520
\njudgement, then why does God or
\nthe Angel, whoever it might be, <\/p>\n

769
\n00:41:07,200 –> 00:41:10,600
\nbring up those sins again when
\nGod has said, you know, in the <\/p>\n

770
\n00:41:10,600 –> 00:41:14,160
\nPsalms, I’ve separated you from
\nyour sins as far as the aces <\/p>\n

771
\n00:41:14,160 –> 00:41:17,240
\nfrom the West?
\nIs that how you would explain <\/p>\n

772
\n00:41:17,240 –> 00:41:20,600
\nthat then, That there are all
\nthese unconscious sins that we <\/p>\n

773
\n00:41:20,600 –> 00:41:23,800
\ndon’t even think about and they
\nwill be part of the judgement <\/p>\n

774
\n00:41:23,800 –> 00:41:26,480
\nprocess?
\nYeah, I, I think so. <\/p>\n

775
\n00:41:26,520 –> 00:41:28,400
\nThat’s going to I think that’s a
\nlarge part of it because like <\/p>\n

776
\n00:41:28,400 –> 00:41:33,760
\nyou say, God’s forgiven us.
\nIf if we had forgiven someone <\/p>\n

777
\n00:41:33,760 –> 00:41:36,680
\nand then later we were like, oh,
\nyeah, now I’m just ordering my <\/p>\n

778
\n00:41:36,680 –> 00:41:39,000
\nfriends.
\nI’m like saying which one’s a <\/p>\n

779
\n00:41:39,000 –> 00:41:40,320
\nreal?
\nOh, no, he did that thing to me.<\/p>\n

780
\n00:41:40,320 –> 00:41:41,960
\nWell, you didn’t forgive him
\nthen, right. <\/p>\n

781
\n00:41:43,320 –> 00:41:45,400
\nSo I do agree.
\nIf it’s a forgiven sin, it <\/p>\n

782
\n00:41:45,400 –> 00:41:49,280
\ndoesn’t really make sense to me
\nto be brought up at all when <\/p>\n

783
\n00:41:49,280 –> 00:41:51,760
\nhe’s as far as he exists from
\nthe West. <\/p>\n

784
\n00:41:52,200 –> 00:41:55,960
\nThere may be some that we think
\nwe’ve confessed and ask <\/p>\n

785
\n00:41:55,960 –> 00:41:58,520
\nforgiveness for that that
\nforgiveness was perhaps selfish.<\/p>\n

786
\n00:41:58,520 –> 00:42:01,600
\nMore than that request or
\nrepentance was more selfish than<\/p>\n

787
\n00:42:01,600 –> 00:42:03,840
\ngenuine.
\nAnd we need to be called out for<\/p>\n

788
\n00:42:03,840 –> 00:42:07,320
\nthat, to be brought low, to be
\nmade into nothing, to get to the<\/p>\n

789
\n00:42:07,320 –> 00:42:10,640
\npoint where we go no OK in
\nrighteousness, in God only have <\/p>\n

790
\n00:42:10,640 –> 00:42:13,480
\nour righteousness and strength.
\nYeah, because you can think <\/p>\n

791
\n00:42:13,480 –> 00:42:16,840
\nabout at the time of Christ is
\nthat attitude. <\/p>\n

792
\n00:42:17,040 –> 00:42:19,200
\nI think that like it’s sort of
\nsimilar. <\/p>\n

793
\n00:42:19,200 –> 00:42:21,440
\nThat makes me think of prayer.
\nIt’s like God already knows the <\/p>\n

794
\n00:42:21,440 –> 00:42:24,720
\nthings that we’re going to bring
\nto him in prayer before we say <\/p>\n

795
\n00:42:24,720 –> 00:42:28,400
\nit, but he wants to see that
\nwilling spirit to, to have that <\/p>\n

796
\n00:42:28,400 –> 00:42:30,760
\nhumility and to bring it before
\nGod and acknowledge your <\/p>\n

797
\n00:42:30,760 –> 00:42:34,040
\nposition of like, I can’t do
\nthis, it’s out of my control, <\/p>\n

798
\n00:42:34,040 –> 00:42:37,840
\nbut I know you can.
\nAnd I think in a similar sort of<\/p>\n

799
\n00:42:37,840 –> 00:42:39,960
\nway, it that helps with this
\nsort of thing as well, because <\/p>\n

800
\n00:42:39,960 –> 00:42:43,040
\nit’s, you’re bringing yourself
\nbefore God, before Christ, <\/p>\n

801
\n00:42:43,040 –> 00:42:46,280
\nasking for forgiveness.
\nAnd it’s that attitude of pure <\/p>\n

802
\n00:42:46,760 –> 00:42:50,160
\nunderlying humiliation.
\nAnd you’re, yeah, you’re kind <\/p>\n

803
\n00:42:50,160 –> 00:42:54,120
\nof, you know, your position.
\nAnd that’s such a hard thing to <\/p>\n

804
\n00:42:54,120 –> 00:42:55,400
\ndo.
\nLike we were saying before, like<\/p>\n

805
\n00:42:56,840 –> 00:42:59,360
\nto know your position and all of
\na sudden be like, oh, what I’m <\/p>\n

806
\n00:42:59,360 –> 00:43:03,080
\nactually doing is wrong because
\nthat human pride can get in the <\/p>\n

807
\n00:43:03,080 –> 00:43:04,720
\nway.
\nAnd it just stops us from <\/p>\n

808
\n00:43:04,920 –> 00:43:06,520
\nrecognizing what we’re doing is
\nbad. <\/p>\n

809
\n00:43:06,800 –> 00:43:11,120
\nYeah, and I think we also often
\nfocus a lot on like, you know, <\/p>\n

810
\n00:43:11,160 –> 00:43:13,920
\nthe bad things and like all
\nthose being called out. <\/p>\n

811
\n00:43:13,920 –> 00:43:17,080
\nBut every man’s work we made
\nmanifest for what it is. <\/p>\n

812
\n00:43:17,080 –> 00:43:20,520
\nSo those people like the sheep
\nor the judgement seat will be <\/p>\n

813
\n00:43:20,840 –> 00:43:22,920
\ncalled out for their good work,
\nwhich is a positive thing to <\/p>\n

814
\n00:43:22,920 –> 00:43:25,280
\nthink about, that there’ll be
\ngood works that we never realise<\/p>\n

815
\n00:43:25,280 –> 00:43:27,720
\nwe did, which you mentioned
\nearlier. <\/p>\n

816
\n00:43:28,720 –> 00:43:32,960
\nAnd that made me question like,
\nwhat’s the value of that? <\/p>\n

817
\n00:43:32,960 –> 00:43:37,480
\nIf the point was all about God’s
\nrighteousness and then you’ve <\/p>\n

818
\n00:43:37,480 –> 00:43:40,960
\ngone and praise someone for
\nsomething they did, is that not <\/p>\n

819
\n00:43:40,960 –> 00:43:43,440
\nlike giving glory to them?
\nIt feels like it’s going against<\/p>\n

820
\n00:43:43,440 –> 00:43:47,400
\nthe purpose of the judgement
\nseat, but those people didn’t <\/p>\n

821
\n00:43:47,400 –> 00:43:51,000
\nweren’t even aware of that.
\nAnd the fact that it’s called <\/p>\n

822
\n00:43:51,000 –> 00:43:54,680
\nout as a good work that is
\nglorifying God shows that <\/p>\n

823
\n00:43:55,000 –> 00:43:57,960
\neverything that they do is
\nputting God first and it’s <\/p>\n

824
\n00:43:57,960 –> 00:44:00,680
\nactually showing God’s
\nrighteousness in another person.<\/p>\n

825
\n00:44:00,920 –> 00:44:02,840
\nIt’s not building up their
\npride. <\/p>\n

826
\n00:44:03,120 –> 00:44:06,080
\nThere’s the balance of, you
\nknow, there’s the things you’ve <\/p>\n

827
\n00:44:06,080 –> 00:44:08,400
\ndone wrong, but these are the
\nthings that really captured <\/p>\n

828
\n00:44:08,400 –> 00:44:10,160
\nGod’s glory.
\nAnd all the world gets to see <\/p>\n

829
\n00:44:10,160 –> 00:44:14,800
\nGod’s glory shown in you, which
\nis a positive thing to think <\/p>\n

830
\n00:44:14,800 –> 00:44:16,280
\nabout as well.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

831
\n00:44:16,960 –> 00:44:21,040
\nSo I guess getting to the bones
\nof it then when you did this <\/p>\n

832
\n00:44:21,080 –> 00:44:25,600
\npersonal study for yourself and
\nyou looked at all the quotes in <\/p>\n

833
\n00:44:25,600 –> 00:44:28,760
\nthe Bible about what the Bible
\nactually says, what’s the <\/p>\n

834
\n00:44:28,760 –> 00:44:32,880
\npicture that you were able to
\nconjure that you shared with the<\/p>\n

835
\n00:44:32,880 –> 00:44:34,680
\nyouth group?
\nAnd are you able to share that <\/p>\n

836
\n00:44:34,680 –> 00:44:36,520
\nwith us now?
\nJust the picture of the <\/p>\n

837
\n00:44:36,520 –> 00:44:38,440
\njudgement bringing all these
\nverses together. <\/p>\n

838
\n00:44:40,080 –> 00:44:44,720
\nI probably mostly focused on
\nthat purpose of the judgement <\/p>\n

839
\n00:44:44,720 –> 00:44:49,080
\nseat and the the, the meaning
\nthat that has for us now rather <\/p>\n

840
\n00:44:49,080 –> 00:44:51,360
\nthan like picturing yourself
\nthere. <\/p>\n

841
\n00:44:52,120 –> 00:44:56,200
\nSo it’s hard to give a really,
\nI’d struggle to give like a <\/p>\n

842
\n00:44:56,200 –> 00:44:58,560
\nreally good picture of it that
\nwasn’t dramatized. <\/p>\n

843
\n00:44:58,560 –> 00:45:01,120
\nI think some of those dramatized
\npictures are good for helping us<\/p>\n

844
\n00:45:01,320 –> 00:45:04,680
\nimagine something, but there’s a
\nfew details that I’d say, like I<\/p>\n

845
\n00:45:04,680 –> 00:45:08,200
\nthink the angels are involved in
\nsome measure, the power of the <\/p>\n

846
\n00:45:08,200 –> 00:45:11,040
\ntears, which is a which is about
\njudgement. <\/p>\n

847
\n00:45:11,680 –> 00:45:15,560
\nJesus says that the reapers, so
\nthe servants of the household at<\/p>\n

848
\n00:45:15,560 –> 00:45:17,280
\nfirst say, can we go and gather
\nup the tears? <\/p>\n

849
\n00:45:17,280 –> 00:45:19,760
\nAnd he says, no, that’s a role
\nreserved for the angels. <\/p>\n

850
\n00:45:19,760 –> 00:45:22,920
\nThe reapers, they’re going to do
\nit and they’re going to separate<\/p>\n

851
\n00:45:22,920 –> 00:45:25,520
\nit into barns.
\nThere’s some, there’s certainly <\/p>\n

852
\n00:45:25,520 –> 00:45:30,400
\nsome role the angels play.
\nMatthew 25 when he comes and <\/p>\n

853
\n00:45:30,400 –> 00:45:33,840
\nsits on his throne with all the
\nholy angels are with him and <\/p>\n

854
\n00:45:33,840 –> 00:45:38,800
\nthey separate sheep and goats.
\nSo that’s I think a fairly good <\/p>\n

855
\n00:45:38,800 –> 00:45:41,200
\nindicator that there’s going to
\nbe Christ on a throne. <\/p>\n

856
\n00:45:42,160 –> 00:45:45,280
\nPeople will come before him.
\nThe word judgement seat is a <\/p>\n

857
\n00:45:45,280 –> 00:45:50,000
\nword that’s used of Christ’s
\njudgement or of a literal <\/p>\n

858
\n00:45:50,200 –> 00:45:53,400
\njudgement seat with like the one
\nof Gallio in Acts where they <\/p>\n

859
\n00:45:53,400 –> 00:45:55,000
\nbrought Paul before a judgement
\nseat. <\/p>\n

860
\n00:45:55,000 –> 00:45:59,520
\nSo that scene, that picture we
\nhave, while I was challenged, <\/p>\n

861
\n00:45:59,640 –> 00:46:03,000
\nchallenged by initially, I think
\nI’ll sort of come back to a <\/p>\n

862
\n00:46:03,000 –> 00:46:05,840
\nfairly traditional view of how
\nit works. <\/p>\n

863
\n00:46:06,240 –> 00:46:09,320
\nI couldn’t say with any
\nconfidence that it was at Sinai.<\/p>\n

864
\n00:46:09,880 –> 00:46:13,240
\nThere’s a couple of quotes that
\nsay that the Saints March from <\/p>\n

865
\n00:46:13,240 –> 00:46:16,480
\nSinai when they take on go, but
\nthat doesn’t necessarily mean <\/p>\n

866
\n00:46:16,480 –> 00:46:19,920
\nthat the judgement was there.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

867
\n00:46:19,920 –> 00:46:23,360
\nSo I say it’s a little bit
\nimperfect and I’ve still got <\/p>\n

868
\n00:46:23,360 –> 00:46:26,040
\nmore study to do here, but I
\nthink there are some things that<\/p>\n

869
\n00:46:26,040 –> 00:46:28,240
\nwe can’t know and we do have to
\nfill in the gaps with our <\/p>\n

870
\n00:46:28,240 –> 00:46:33,160
\nimaginations, which are less.
\nYeah, I like how you did focus <\/p>\n

871
\n00:46:33,160 –> 00:46:36,960
\non sort of, I guess our attitude
\ntowards it and what we think <\/p>\n

872
\n00:46:36,960 –> 00:46:39,040
\nabout now, because you think
\nabout Matthew 25. <\/p>\n

873
\n00:46:39,120 –> 00:46:42,680
\nAnd that’s been like the parable
\nof the talents, parable of the <\/p>\n

874
\n00:46:42,680 –> 00:46:44,680
\nvirgins and the sheep and the
\ngoats. <\/p>\n

875
\n00:46:44,680 –> 00:46:47,600
\nThey’re all parable was in the
\nway of the judgement seat. <\/p>\n

876
\n00:46:47,600 –> 00:46:50,120
\nLike you’ve got the master of
\nthe house going away or the <\/p>\n

877
\n00:46:50,120 –> 00:46:52,480
\nbride going away and then he’s
\ngoing to return at some point. <\/p>\n

878
\n00:46:52,800 –> 00:46:56,880
\nBut the focus of those first two
\nis all about like how we prepare<\/p>\n

879
\n00:46:56,880 –> 00:46:59,480
\nourselves in the time he’s gone.
\nLike in the parable of the <\/p>\n

880
\n00:46:59,480 –> 00:47:02,720
\nvirgins, you’ve obviously got
\nthe five unwise who aren’t, who <\/p>\n

881
\n00:47:02,720 –> 00:47:04,520
\naren’t ready for it at all, and
\nthen they’re locked out and <\/p>\n

882
\n00:47:04,520 –> 00:47:08,120
\nthey’re not allowed back in.
\nAnd the parable of the talents, <\/p>\n

883
\n00:47:08,120 –> 00:47:10,720
\nyou’ve got the one talent being
\nwho, who saw God as just a <\/p>\n

884
\n00:47:10,720 –> 00:47:14,560
\ncompletely or the master or the
\nfather is a completely wrong man<\/p>\n

885
\n00:47:14,920 –> 00:47:19,920
\nand just saw him as this scary
\nand and this wrathful God who <\/p>\n

886
\n00:47:21,440 –> 00:47:23,520
\nwho raped or what does it say
\nabout he? <\/p>\n

887
\n00:47:23,520 –> 00:47:27,000
\nYou were a hard man.
\nYeah, and and yeah, yeah, <\/p>\n

888
\n00:47:27,000 –> 00:47:29,240
\nexactly.
\nAnd it’s an attitude of like <\/p>\n

889
\n00:47:29,240 –> 00:47:32,320
\nthat was like cast out, but it
\nwas the attitude of putting what<\/p>\n

890
\n00:47:32,320 –> 00:47:35,080
\nyou’ve got now to good works.
\nAnd that was a thing that that <\/p>\n

891
\n00:47:35,080 –> 00:47:36,960
\nChrist emphasized the people at
\nthe time. <\/p>\n

892
\n00:47:36,960 –> 00:47:38,960
\nLike that was the thing he
\nwanted them to be taken away <\/p>\n

893
\n00:47:38,960 –> 00:47:42,160
\nwith was like how you prepare
\nwhile I’m gone. <\/p>\n

894
\n00:47:42,720 –> 00:47:45,160
\nKnowing that this is going to
\nhappen is is ultimately the most<\/p>\n

895
\n00:47:45,160 –> 00:47:47,680
\nimportant thing.
\nAnd it’s not what we’re getting <\/p>\n

896
\n00:47:47,680 –> 00:47:49,960
\njudged on our works.
\nObviously we understand that <\/p>\n

897
\n00:47:49,960 –> 00:47:53,480
\nthat’s like we’re not, it’s not
\nwhat we do physically. <\/p>\n

898
\n00:47:53,480 –> 00:47:55,760
\nLike we’re good tick off.
\nYou know, we understand that’s, <\/p>\n

899
\n00:47:55,800 –> 00:47:59,440
\nthat’s not quite how how it
\nworks, but it’s the idea of like<\/p>\n

900
\n00:47:59,440 –> 00:48:02,280
\nputting our best foot forward
\nand understanding that it’s not <\/p>\n

901
\n00:48:02,280 –> 00:48:05,920
\nin our hands and that God saving
\nus for who we’re going to <\/p>\n

902
\n00:48:05,920 –> 00:48:07,280
\nbecome.
\nAnd that starts with the <\/p>\n

903
\n00:48:07,280 –> 00:48:09,600
\ntransformations we take in our
\nlives each and every day. <\/p>\n

904
\n00:48:10,440 –> 00:48:14,160
\nSo I guess that’s another way in
\nwhich you can think about the <\/p>\n

905
\n00:48:14,320 –> 00:48:16,640
\nthe judgement, say in your day,
\neach and every life. <\/p>\n

906
\n00:48:16,920 –> 00:48:18,840
\nYeah.
\nYeah, each and every day as <\/p>\n

907
\n00:48:18,960 –> 00:48:21,280
\nopposed.
\nYeah, yeah, that’s right. <\/p>\n

908
\n00:48:22,640 –> 00:48:26,880
\nSo it seems up there is you went
\nyou alerted to Corinthians <\/p>\n

909
\n00:48:27,000 –> 00:48:32,720
\nearlier and there’s obviously
\ndifferent rewards post judgement<\/p>\n

910
\n00:48:32,720 –> 00:48:35,560
\nas well.
\nSo Corinthians talks about, you <\/p>\n

911
\n00:48:35,560 –> 00:48:40,200
\nknow, people whose works will be
\nwood, hay, stubble, gold and <\/p>\n

912
\n00:48:40,200 –> 00:48:45,000
\nthen following the judgement.
\nI mean, we’re all given eternal <\/p>\n

913
\n00:48:45,000 –> 00:48:47,640
\nlife if we’re all accepted as
\npart of God’s Kingdom. <\/p>\n

914
\n00:48:49,680 –> 00:48:53,680
\nJesus talks about how the 12
\ndisciples would sit on 12 <\/p>\n

915
\n00:48:53,680 –> 00:48:57,560
\nThrones judging the 12 tribes
\nover, which seems like a greater<\/p>\n

916
\n00:48:58,200 –> 00:49:02,120
\nstation than others and then
\nothers will be door keepers and <\/p>\n

917
\n00:49:02,120 –> 00:49:03,400
\nall these sorts of different
\nthings. <\/p>\n

918
\n00:49:03,680 –> 00:49:09,040
\nHow do you, how do you sort of
\nexplain that side of it as well?<\/p>\n

919
\n00:49:09,760 –> 00:49:11,960
\nDid you look into that part of
\nit as well? <\/p>\n

920
\n00:49:12,360 –> 00:49:15,880
\nYeah, well, I think that First
\nCorinthians 3 is a really good <\/p>\n

921
\n00:49:15,880 –> 00:49:19,880
\none because it shows that no
\nmatter what, in the end you’ve <\/p>\n

922
\n00:49:19,880 –> 00:49:22,520
\ngot all your works and all your
\nworks themselves could be burned<\/p>\n

923
\n00:49:22,520 –> 00:49:25,320
\nout.
\nBut if you, if you with a <\/p>\n

924
\n00:49:25,320 –> 00:49:28,360
\ngenuine heart have built those
\non the foundation of Jesus <\/p>\n

925
\n00:49:28,360 –> 00:49:31,280
\nChrist, because it says the
\nfoundation will still be left, <\/p>\n

926
\n00:49:31,720 –> 00:49:35,160
\nthen Christ, there will be a
\nplace for you in the Kingdom. <\/p>\n

927
\n00:49:35,200 –> 00:49:38,520
\nBut the works that you do build
\nup throughout your life are an <\/p>\n

928
\n00:49:38,520 –> 00:49:41,520
\nindicator as to the abilities
\nand talents that you’ve been <\/p>\n

929
\n00:49:41,520 –> 00:49:44,920
\ngiven, I suppose.
\nAnd God will reward people <\/p>\n

930
\n00:49:44,920 –> 00:49:48,680
\naccording to their several
\nabilities, which is like quote, <\/p>\n

931
\n00:49:49,360 –> 00:49:51,240
\nlike like the power of the
\ntalents and the power of the <\/p>\n

932
\n00:49:51,240 –> 00:49:56,240
\npounds indicates and will be
\ngiven a roll over 10 cities, I <\/p>\n

933
\n00:49:56,240 –> 00:49:58,040
\nthink.
\nAnd we can always trust in the <\/p>\n

934
\n00:49:58,200 –> 00:49:59,920
\ncomplete wisdom of God.
\nThere’s not going to be anyone <\/p>\n

935
\n00:49:59,920 –> 00:50:02,320
\nwho’s disgruntled with what
\nthey’ve been given. <\/p>\n

936
\n00:50:02,320 –> 00:50:06,720
\nEveryone will be given a role
\nthat’s suited to them that is a <\/p>\n

937
\n00:50:06,720 –> 00:50:12,360
\nreward for what they’ve done and
\nthat God knows they’ll thrive in<\/p>\n

938
\n00:50:12,360 –> 00:50:16,880
\nfor eternity.
\nAnd that’s a pretty simple view <\/p>\n

939
\n00:50:16,880 –> 00:50:18,960
\nof it as to what all of those
\nroles are. <\/p>\n

940
\n00:50:19,320 –> 00:50:24,680
\nI mean, it’s some cool things
\nyou could look into, but when I <\/p>\n

941
\n00:50:24,720 –> 00:50:27,880
\nalso don’t know whether that’s
\nexactly the stage at judgement <\/p>\n

942
\n00:50:27,880 –> 00:50:31,960
\nseat or little like a roles are
\ngiven after the judgement seat <\/p>\n

943
\n00:50:31,960 –> 00:50:34,840
\nafter people have been sorted
\ninto sheep and goats. <\/p>\n

944
\n00:50:36,000 –> 00:50:38,200
\nYeah, something to look into a
\nlittle more there too. <\/p>\n

945
\n00:50:39,440 –> 00:50:42,520
\nBecause I think, you know, when
\nit talks about, you know, you’re<\/p>\n

946
\n00:50:42,520 –> 00:50:45,400
\ngoing to be kings as pray some
\nlike do I fit into either a <\/p>\n

947
\n00:50:45,400 –> 00:50:48,800
\npriestly role or a kingly role?
\nAnd it’s like, do I fit into <\/p>\n

948
\n00:50:48,920 –> 00:50:51,400
\neither of them or none of them?
\nYou’re looking pretty kingly on <\/p>\n

949
\n00:50:51,400 –> 00:50:55,040
\nthat couch.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

950
\n00:50:55,080 –> 00:50:59,520
\nI mean, I suppose before we get
\nto your 3 rules for life much <\/p>\n

951
\n00:50:59,520 –> 00:51:03,080
\nanticipated segment, is there
\nanything that you want to leave <\/p>\n

952
\n00:51:03,080 –> 00:51:06,000
\npeople with like in your study
\nthat you learned that you might <\/p>\n

953
\n00:51:06,040 –> 00:51:09,880
\nwant to express?
\nApart from the things I’ve said,<\/p>\n

954
\n00:51:09,880 –> 00:51:13,360
\nI’d say one other thing that
\npeople often bring up about this<\/p>\n

955
\n00:51:13,360 –> 00:51:17,720
\nis fear of the judgement seat.
\nActually fear the judgement seat<\/p>\n

956
\n00:51:17,720 –> 00:51:20,160
\nor it should be something we
\nanticipate, look forward to. <\/p>\n

957
\n00:51:20,960 –> 00:51:24,120
\nIt’s very hard to answer that
\nquestion outright. <\/p>\n

958
\n00:51:24,120 –> 00:51:26,520
\nLike if you have some fear of
\nthe judgement seat, does that <\/p>\n

959
\n00:51:26,520 –> 00:51:29,560
\njust mean that you’re not going
\nto be judged worthy? <\/p>\n

960
\n00:51:31,600 –> 00:51:36,160
\nThe but there are a few things
\nthat we do know 1 is in First <\/p>\n

961
\n00:51:36,160 –> 00:51:38,240
\nCorinthians, I think it’s First
\nCorinthians 4. <\/p>\n

962
\n00:51:39,520 –> 00:51:42,760
\nPaul says it might be so
\nCorinthians 5, one of the two. <\/p>\n

963
\n00:51:43,040 –> 00:51:47,280
\nPaul says that knowing therefore
\nthe terror of the Lord we <\/p>\n

964
\n00:51:47,280 –> 00:51:50,280
\ncommand men about this.
\nThe immediately preceding verses<\/p>\n

965
\n00:51:50,280 –> 00:51:54,480
\nwere about the judgement seat so
\nthat he acknowledges that there <\/p>\n

966
\n00:51:54,480 –> 00:51:58,200
\nis a terror when it comes to
\nthis, but he goes on. <\/p>\n

967
\n00:51:58,200 –> 00:52:00,120
\nI actually I’m going to flip it
\nup because second. <\/p>\n

968
\n00:52:00,400 –> 00:52:02,880
\nCorinthians 5, yeah. 2nd
\nCorinthians 5. <\/p>\n

969
\n00:52:02,880 –> 00:52:07,000
\nCool.
\nHe goes on in the later verses <\/p>\n

970
\n00:52:07,040 –> 00:52:12,160
\nto say, yeah, so he says Knowing
\ntherefore the terror of the <\/p>\n

971
\n00:52:12,160 –> 00:52:16,000
\nLord, we persuade men, etcetera.
\nAnd he goes on talks a little <\/p>\n

972
\n00:52:16,000 –> 00:52:19,240
\nbit more about giving occasion
\nto glory. <\/p>\n

973
\n00:52:19,480 –> 00:52:23,160
\nBut verse 14 then brings up that
\nthe love of Christ constrains us<\/p>\n

974
\n00:52:23,160 –> 00:52:25,960
\nbecause we thus judge that if
\none died for all, then we’re all<\/p>\n

975
\n00:52:25,960 –> 00:52:28,280
\ndead.
\nAnd you find a similar sentiment<\/p>\n

976
\n00:52:28,280 –> 00:52:32,680
\nin first of John, the end of
\nfirst of John 4, where we come <\/p>\n

977
\n00:52:32,680 –> 00:52:37,240
\nto the judgement seat of Christ
\nwithout fear, because perfect <\/p>\n

978
\n00:52:37,240 –> 00:52:41,640
\nlove casts out fear, right.
\nSo the question is, should we <\/p>\n

979
\n00:52:41,640 –> 00:52:45,480
\nhave any fear?
\nWell, if we have perfect love, <\/p>\n

980
\n00:52:45,480 –> 00:52:48,080
\nthen no.
\nBut would anyone claim to have <\/p>\n

981
\n00:52:48,080 –> 00:52:51,040
\nperfect love in this life?
\nI expect not. <\/p>\n

982
\n00:52:51,120 –> 00:52:53,520
\nIt’s the it’s the end goal we
\nshould reach. <\/p>\n

983
\n00:52:53,840 –> 00:52:58,000
\nBut there is the fact is that we
\nwe have perfect love for God and<\/p>\n

984
\n00:52:58,000 –> 00:52:59,320
\nwe are not.
\nWe acknowledge that he’s <\/p>\n

985
\n00:52:59,320 –> 00:53:01,640
\npromised us this, but we doubt
\nourselves. <\/p>\n

986
\n00:53:01,920 –> 00:53:06,520
\nWe doubt ourselves a little and
\ntherefore we fear the outcome in<\/p>\n

987
\n00:53:06,520 –> 00:53:08,000
\nthe end.
\nThat is a little bit of a doubt <\/p>\n

988
\n00:53:08,000 –> 00:53:10,520
\nof God’s promise.
\nBut we do, a lot of us do <\/p>\n

989
\n00:53:10,520 –> 00:53:12,800
\nharbour that and there’s some
\npeople who are really quite <\/p>\n

990
\n00:53:12,800 –> 00:53:14,680
\nconfident in it.
\nAnd that’s I think, a place that<\/p>\n

991
\n00:53:14,680 –> 00:53:21,160
\nwe should all strive to get to.
\nBut rejection is a fearful thing<\/p>\n

992
\n00:53:21,600 –> 00:53:26,480
\nand the words for like weeping
\nand gnashing of teeth are only <\/p>\n

993
\n00:53:26,480 –> 00:53:31,280
\nused in context of judgement,
\nexcept for twice weeping. <\/p>\n

994
\n00:53:31,360 –> 00:53:35,560
\nWhaling is used of one of those
\ntimes is of the mothers of <\/p>\n

995
\n00:53:35,560 –> 00:53:37,280
\nBethlehem who lost their
\nchildren. <\/p>\n

996
\n00:53:37,320 –> 00:53:42,600
\nSo it’s that’s like a mother’s
\nbond with a child and something <\/p>\n

997
\n00:53:42,600 –> 00:53:45,000
\nthat the three of us are never
\ngoing to experience, but is one <\/p>\n

998
\n00:53:45,000 –> 00:53:47,480
\nof the strongest bonds in nature
\nthat God’s ever created. <\/p>\n

999
\n00:53:47,560 –> 00:53:52,160
\nAnd it’s broken.
\nSo it’s a it’s a terrifying <\/p>\n

1000
\n00:53:52,160 –> 00:53:53,840
\nthing.
\nAnd there’s always that little <\/p>\n

1001
\n00:53:53,840 –> 00:53:55,720
\nniggling doubt that I don’t want
\nthat to be me. <\/p>\n

1002
\n00:53:56,760 –> 00:54:02,480
\nBut if we have perfect love and
\nappreciate more so that God has <\/p>\n

1003
\n00:54:02,480 –> 00:54:06,200
\nperfect love, realise that he
\nhas promised us that he wants to<\/p>\n

1004
\n00:54:06,200 –> 00:54:09,360
\nsave us, then we can have
\nconfidence that he will do it. <\/p>\n

1005
\n00:54:09,960 –> 00:54:13,360
\nThe rest just lies with us,
\nwhether we examine our faith and<\/p>\n

1006
\n00:54:13,360 –> 00:54:17,560
\ngo, OK, I truly am all I.
\nAll I am is for Christ. <\/p>\n

1007
\n00:54:18,480 –> 00:54:20,240
\nYeah, because it’s not that
\nbelief in us, but it’s that <\/p>\n

1008
\n00:54:20,240 –> 00:54:22,760
\nbelief in God to save.
\nIt’s got nothing to do with us. <\/p>\n

1009
\n00:54:22,960 –> 00:54:25,800
\nAnd it was not super practical.
\nSometimes it’s hard to put that <\/p>\n

1010
\n00:54:25,800 –> 00:54:31,800
\ninto really practical terms.
\nBut yeah, it’s let’s not doubt <\/p>\n

1011
\n00:54:31,800 –> 00:54:36,160
\nGod, it’s the main thing.
\nAnd I think something that <\/p>\n

1012
\n00:54:36,160 –> 00:54:39,840
\nstruck me recently R.E.M.
\nJust before we wrap up shortly, <\/p>\n

1013
\n00:54:40,200 –> 00:54:44,160
\nbut looking at our life today
\nhas been a training ground has <\/p>\n

1014
\n00:54:44,760 –> 00:54:47,640
\nwhen I think about it, it’s sort
\nof life changing and I think <\/p>\n

1015
\n00:54:47,640 –> 00:54:52,880
\nit’s training ground almost for
\nfor judgement where you know, <\/p>\n

1016
\n00:54:52,880 –> 00:54:55,360
\nPhilippians talks about, you
\nknow, the good work that God <\/p>\n

1017
\n00:54:55,360 –> 00:54:58,240
\nstarted in us.
\nHe will bring about, you know, <\/p>\n

1018
\n00:54:58,680 –> 00:55:01,760
\nat the day of Christ’s return.
\nSo it’s almost like this <\/p>\n

1019
\n00:55:01,760 –> 00:55:04,000
\njudgement.
\nThis final process is is the <\/p>\n

1020
\n00:55:04,000 –> 00:55:07,080
\nculmination of everything that
\nwe’ve done because we’ve been <\/p>\n

1021
\n00:55:07,080 –> 00:55:10,360
\npreparing for all our lives.
\nAnd that’s why we should look at<\/p>\n

1022
\n00:55:10,360 –> 00:55:14,440
\nthis life is so transit train
\neverything that happens to us. <\/p>\n

1023
\n00:55:14,440 –> 00:55:18,640
\nWe can almost with with faith
\nanyway, sort of it’s ward off a <\/p>\n

1024
\n00:55:18,640 –> 00:55:22,440
\nduck’s back almost because it’s
\njust training us for that time. <\/p>\n

1025
\n00:55:22,440 –> 00:55:25,680
\nAnd like you were talking about
\nbefore, there are people who may<\/p>\n

1026
\n00:55:25,680 –> 00:55:32,040
\nhave suffered humiliation in
\nthis life already and who are <\/p>\n

1027
\n00:55:32,600 –> 00:55:38,040
\nperhaps going to feel, you know,
\nless of a burden than maybe <\/p>\n

1028
\n00:55:38,040 –> 00:55:40,880
\nothers who’ve hidden that in
\ntheir lives. <\/p>\n

1029
\n00:55:41,000 –> 00:55:42,720
\nYeah.
\nYeah, I like that thought that <\/p>\n

1030
\n00:55:42,720 –> 00:55:47,920
\nyou finish like the judgement
\nseat is just the end of the <\/p>\n

1031
\n00:55:47,920 –> 00:55:51,080
\nprocess that God started, but
\nthere’s a lot more to be done. <\/p>\n

1032
\n00:55:51,080 –> 00:55:53,880
\nThat judgement seat, it’s almost
\nspeed running what the rest of <\/p>\n

1033
\n00:55:54,440 –> 00:55:57,160
\nour life would have taken to
\ndevelop in US. <\/p>\n

1034
\n00:55:58,240 –> 00:56:00,840
\nBut I guess this is the, this is
\nthe crux, Josh. <\/p>\n

1035
\n00:56:01,160 –> 00:56:02,720
\nThis is our three rules for
\nlife. <\/p>\n

1036
\n00:56:02,720 –> 00:56:04,640
\nDo you want to get us started
\nwith your first one? <\/p>\n

1037
\n00:56:04,960 –> 00:56:08,120
\nYeah, So my first one’s
\nunrelated to the topic or maybe <\/p>\n

1038
\n00:56:08,120 –> 00:56:09,560
\nthe last two related to the
\ntopic. <\/p>\n

1039
\n00:56:09,680 –> 00:56:11,400
\nThat’s all good.
\nPerfect. <\/p>\n

1040
\n00:56:12,040 –> 00:56:16,800
\nMy first one is and so I’ve got
\nit on my phone home screen. <\/p>\n

1041
\n00:56:16,840 –> 00:56:20,320
\nAlways believe that others are a
\nwork in progress, never give up <\/p>\n

1042
\n00:56:20,320 –> 00:56:22,560
\non them.
\nThat’s the that’s the short <\/p>\n

1043
\n00:56:22,560 –> 00:56:27,480
\nversion.
\nIn essence, we’re all just <\/p>\n

1044
\n00:56:28,280 –> 00:56:31,640
\ndesperately sick people with the
\nterminal disease that it that no<\/p>\n

1045
\n00:56:31,640 –> 00:56:34,320
\none, no human, has ever
\nsurvived, even Christ. <\/p>\n

1046
\n00:56:34,320 –> 00:56:38,960
\nThat’s mortality.
\nSo to think that others are <\/p>\n

1047
\n00:56:39,000 –> 00:56:43,800
\nbeyond saving at any point is, I
\nthink really, quite, really <\/p>\n

1048
\n00:56:43,800 –> 00:56:46,600
\nquite wrong.
\nAnd if we always believe that <\/p>\n

1049
\n00:56:46,600 –> 00:56:49,320
\nothers are a work in progress,
\nwe’ll treat them with compassion<\/p>\n

1050
\n00:56:49,320 –> 00:56:52,440
\nand love and always be OK.
\nSo they’ve done that Hurtful. <\/p>\n

1051
\n00:56:52,440 –> 00:56:54,640
\nThe thing that I could translate
\nis hurtful to me. <\/p>\n

1052
\n00:56:54,800 –> 00:56:57,680
\nBut instead, I’ll, I’ll go,
\nwell, how can I help them? <\/p>\n

1053
\n00:56:57,680 –> 00:57:01,040
\nThey’re a work in progress.
\nAnd in a way that does relate to<\/p>\n

1054
\n00:57:01,040 –> 00:57:03,000
\nwhat we were talking about
\nbecause we’re all, we have to <\/p>\n

1055
\n00:57:03,000 –> 00:57:05,440
\nacknowledge that we’re all work
\nin progress for the judgement. <\/p>\n

1056
\n00:57:05,440 –> 00:57:07,480
\nSo.
\nYeah, good little, good little <\/p>\n

1057
\n00:57:07,960 –> 00:57:12,640
\nthere.
\nThe two that are actually rules,<\/p>\n

1058
\n00:57:12,840 –> 00:57:15,760
\nprobably two other rules for
\nlife that I’d like to think of <\/p>\n

1059
\n00:57:15,760 –> 00:57:21,120
\nanyway, but a judgement related
\nas well on the lines of like we <\/p>\n

1060
\n00:57:21,120 –> 00:57:23,720
\nneed to be made small and
\nrealise how small and humble we <\/p>\n

1061
\n00:57:23,720 –> 00:57:27,680
\nare.
\nFirst one is you have no rights <\/p>\n

1062
\n00:57:28,720 –> 00:57:32,480
\nand the second one is you own
\nnothing interesting. <\/p>\n

1063
\n00:57:33,920 –> 00:57:38,440
\nSo to expand on that slightly,
\nbecause you pose A quizzical <\/p>\n

1064
\n00:57:38,440 –> 00:57:41,160
\nlook, right?
\nNo, no, it’s it’s yeah, I like <\/p>\n

1065
\n00:57:41,240 –> 00:57:41,920
\nit.
\nI like it. <\/p>\n

1066
\n00:57:41,920 –> 00:57:45,120
\nA lot you have no, the only
\nright that we really have, the <\/p>\n

1067
\n00:57:45,120 –> 00:57:50,720
\nonly thing we deserve is death.
\nThat’s the wages that we’ve that<\/p>\n

1068
\n00:57:50,720 –> 00:57:52,920
\nwe have been offered for our
\nsins. <\/p>\n

1069
\n00:57:53,440 –> 00:57:57,440
\nBut we’re given so much more.
\nSo if we have a realisation that<\/p>\n

1070
\n00:57:57,440 –> 00:58:00,600
\nwe have no rights, anytime we
\nstand up for ourselves, it’s not<\/p>\n

1071
\n00:58:00,600 –> 00:58:03,080
\na humble, it’s not a humble
\nthing at all. <\/p>\n

1072
\n00:58:03,520 –> 00:58:06,240
\nBut we’ve got no rights.
\nWe have nothing to stand up for <\/p>\n

1073
\n00:58:07,400 –> 00:58:10,080
\nand the idea of owning nothing,
\neverything is God’s. <\/p>\n

1074
\n00:58:10,080 –> 00:58:12,960
\nThat’s pretty straightforward.
\nSo anything we have sort of just<\/p>\n

1075
\n00:58:13,320 –> 00:58:17,560
\non loan until and we are the
\nstewards of God to decide what <\/p>\n

1076
\n00:58:17,560 –> 00:58:20,160
\nto do with it.
\nSo it was. <\/p>\n

1077
\n00:58:21,680 –> 00:58:23,800
\nAlways believe that others are a
\nwork in progress. <\/p>\n

1078
\n00:58:23,800 –> 00:58:25,760
\nNever give up on them.
\nYeah. #2. <\/p>\n

1079
\n00:58:25,920 –> 00:58:27,840
\nYou have no rights.
\nAnd #3. <\/p>\n

1080
\n00:58:28,320 –> 00:58:30,560
\nYou owe nothing.
\nPerfect. <\/p>\n

1081
\n00:58:30,720 –> 00:58:31,960
\nThanks for coming in tonight,
\nJosh. <\/p>\n

1082
\n00:58:32,240 –> 00:58:34,280
\nYeah, thanks.
\nThanks for wrapping that up. <\/p>\n

1083
\n00:58:34,440 –> 00:58:38,400
\nIt was quite a sobering topic,
\nbut I think the love of Christ, <\/p>\n

1084
\n00:58:39,160 –> 00:58:42,040
\nI think we it ended on a really
\npositive note. <\/p>\n

1085
\n00:58:42,040 –> 00:58:45,880
\nSo thanks for bringing it
\npositive and and reloading it <\/p>\n

1086
\n00:58:45,880 –> 00:58:48,160
\nback to to Christ and the love
\nthat he had. <\/p>\n

1087
\n00:58:48,680 –> 00:58:51,680
\nFor us, well, hopefully it ends
\non a positive note for everyone.<\/p>\n

1088
\n00:58:51,760 –> 00:58:54,320
\nYeah, yeah, long term, right.
\nYeah, no thanks heaps. <\/p>\n

1089
