1
\n00:00:13,200 –> 00:00:15,300
\nWelcome to the good Christian
\ntalks podcast. <\/p>\n

2
\n00:00:15,300 –> 00:00:18,100
\nI’m Levi and I’m Chris.
\nThank you so much for joining us<\/p>\n

3
\n00:00:18,100 –> 00:00:22,800
\nthis week on this podcast.
\nWe select one taco week to help <\/p>\n

4
\n00:00:22,900 –> 00:00:26,600
\neach one of us get the Bible in
\nour daily news feed. <\/p>\n

5
\n00:00:27,500 –> 00:00:29,600
\nWe post at the start of each
\nweek for you to listen. <\/p>\n

6
\n00:00:30,000 –> 00:00:32,500
\nWith a short intro before hand
\nto kind of set the stage for the<\/p>\n

7
\n00:00:32,500 –> 00:00:34,300
\ntalk.
\nYou’re about to hear and now <\/p>\n

8
\n00:00:34,300 –> 00:00:35,800
\nlet’s hear more about this
\nweek’s talk. <\/p>\n

9
\n00:00:44,000 –> 00:00:45,500
\nThis week.
\nWe’ll listen to the first class <\/p>\n

10
\n00:00:45,500 –> 00:00:48,500
\nthat was given by brother Dennis
\nBevins at the iPod Bible school <\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:48,500 –> 00:00:52,500
\nthis past year the same year is
\nalso the class that was given by<\/p>\n

12
\n00:00:52,800 –> 00:00:56,200
\nbrother Ben Brinckerhoff that we
\nposted earlier this year. <\/p>\n

13
\n00:00:57,200 –> 00:01:00,500
\nThis is the first class in his
\nseries on the disciple whom <\/p>\n

14
\n00:01:00,500 –> 00:01:04,400
\nJesus loved John and this was
\nactually the one that at <\/p>\n

15
\n00:01:04,599 –> 00:01:07,100
\nIdyllwild I wasn’t able to
\nlisten to live. <\/p>\n

16
\n00:01:07,100 –> 00:01:09,900
\nSo I was excited to be able to
\nlisten to this one and to share <\/p>\n

17
\n00:01:09,900 –> 00:01:12,500
\nit with everyone apologies for
\nthis class being a little bit <\/p>\n

18
\n00:01:12,500 –> 00:01:13,800
\nlate.
\nYou can probably still hear To <\/p>\n

19
\n00:01:13,800 –> 00:01:17,700
\nmy voice a little bit.
\nI got a cold and pretty much <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:17,700 –> 00:01:20,000
\nlost my voice for the better
\npart of the week which makes <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:20,000 –> 00:01:21,800
\nrecording ensure a little bit
\ndifficult. <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:21,800 –> 00:01:26,800
\nBut why don’t you get this one
\nout in this first class brother <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:26,800 –> 00:01:29,900
\nDennis is laying the groundwork
\nfor the class that he’s going to<\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:29,900 –> 00:01:32,900
\ngive for the entire week of
\nIdlewild and spend some time <\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:32,900 –> 00:01:36,500
\nkind of looking at the disciple
\nJohn and how we interact with <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:36,500 –> 00:01:38,400
\nChrist through Christ’s Ministry
\nand life. <\/p>\n

27
\n00:01:38,400 –> 00:01:41,900
\nAnd then after Christ’s death
\nand Resurrection, he’s laying a <\/p>\n

28
\n00:01:41,908 –> 00:01:44,100
\nlot of the groundwork for a lot
\nof the things that he is going <\/p>\n

29
\n00:01:44,100 –> 00:01:48,400
\nto be using and referencing to
\nthrough the rest of his series, <\/p>\n

30
\n00:01:48,400 –> 00:01:50,500
\nbut I thought this one was
\nparticularly good because one <\/p>\n

31
\n00:01:50,500 –> 00:01:51,600
\nhe’s he’s laying the ground
\nwork. <\/p>\n

32
\n00:01:51,607 –> 00:01:53,700
\nHe’s doing an introduction which
\nmakes it really good for this <\/p>\n

33
\n00:01:53,700 –> 00:01:56,500
\nformat for the podcast because
\nit is a good kind of stand-alone<\/p>\n

34
\n00:01:56,500 –> 00:01:59,300
\nclass, but also really is
\ninteresting for for digging into<\/p>\n

35
\n00:01:59,300 –> 00:02:03,500
\nthe rest of the classes in this
\nseries, but he also makes a <\/p>\n

36
\n00:02:03,500 –> 00:02:06,700
\npoint that he drives at
\nthroughout the rest of his <\/p>\n

37
\n00:02:06,700 –> 00:02:11,900
\nseries about how we approach
\neach other when it comes to the <\/p>\n

38
\n00:02:11,900 –> 00:02:14,600
\nfact that all of us have fallen
\nshort of the Lori and the <\/p>\n

39
\n00:02:14,600 –> 00:02:18,500
\nexample that was set by Christ
\nand he makes a point that I <\/p>\n

40
\n00:02:18,500 –> 00:02:21,700
\nfound really powerful.
\nIt was a good reminder to myself<\/p>\n

41
\n00:02:22,000 –> 00:02:24,300
\njust in the way that we all have
\ndifferent things that we <\/p>\n

42
\n00:02:24,300 –> 00:02:30,000
\nstruggle with and our own little
\ncorners of Darkness or sin that <\/p>\n

43
\n00:02:30,000 –> 00:02:32,200
\nwe’re struggling with a
\ndifferent points, but that’s <\/p>\n

44
\n00:02:32,200 –> 00:02:36,300
\ndifferent for every single
\nperson and the point that Dennis<\/p>\n

45
\n00:02:36,300 –> 00:02:39,000
\nmade kind of the latter part of
\nhis class. <\/p>\n

46
\n00:02:39,300 –> 00:02:41,500
\nHe kind of went a little tangent
\nfor this one, but I think it was<\/p>\n

47
\n00:02:41,500 –> 00:02:45,400
\na good one was that we all know
\nthat none of us is perfect in <\/p>\n

48
\n00:02:45,400 –> 00:02:47,400
\nevery single one of us is
\nstruggling with something. <\/p>\n

49
\n00:02:47,500 –> 00:02:50,500
\nWe don’t always necessarily know
\nwhat that thing is that you’re <\/p>\n

50
\n00:02:50,500 –> 00:02:54,200
\nstruggling with, but if we can
\nall come to the table <\/p>\n

51
\n00:02:54,200 –> 00:02:58,900
\nacknowledging that none of us
\nhas it all figured out and even <\/p>\n

52
\n00:02:58,900 –> 00:03:03,500
\nthough we don’t necessarily have
\nto Reveal what we’re struggling <\/p>\n

53
\n00:03:03,500 –> 00:03:06,300
\nwith to every single person
\nbecause it can sometimes be very<\/p>\n

54
\n00:03:06,300 –> 00:03:09,700
\npersonal thing.
\nIf we all come to the table <\/p>\n

55
\n00:03:11,000 –> 00:03:14,200
\nevery Sunday and we’re meeting
\ntogether realizing that every <\/p>\n

56
\n00:03:14,200 –> 00:03:18,500
\nsingle one of us is struggling
\nwith something you no longer <\/p>\n

57
\n00:03:18,500 –> 00:03:20,900
\nhave to feel that you’re
\nstruggling with that something <\/p>\n

58
\n00:03:21,000 –> 00:03:25,400
\nby yourself and it was sort of a
\nbroader concept that even the <\/p>\n

59
\n00:03:25,400 –> 00:03:27,800
\nsubject of his class
\nspecifically, but it was one of <\/p>\n

60
\n00:03:27,808 –> 00:03:31,100
\nthose kind of profound little
\nstatements as he’s going through<\/p>\n

61
\n00:03:31,300 –> 00:03:33,700
\nKind of ties into it.
\nYou can tell he’s digging into <\/p>\n

62
\n00:03:33,700 –> 00:03:37,400
\nit near the end of the class.
\nSo it was a really good one to <\/p>\n

63
\n00:03:37,408 –> 00:03:40,900
\nlisten to but it was just
\nsomething that I felt was really<\/p>\n

64
\n00:03:40,900 –> 00:03:42,700
\nencouraging.
\nI know I’ve gone through it <\/p>\n

65
\n00:03:42,700 –> 00:03:44,900
\nwhere you feel like you’re
\nstruggling with something that <\/p>\n

66
\n00:03:46,200 –> 00:03:48,800
\nfeels bigger than yourself and
\nyou’re trying to rely on God, <\/p>\n

67
\n00:03:48,800 –> 00:03:51,800
\nbut you know, sometimes you need
\nto know that you’re not by <\/p>\n

68
\n00:03:51,800 –> 00:03:55,500
\nyourself and the point that
\nDennis is making with his <\/p>\n

69
\n00:03:55,500 –> 00:03:58,900
\nclasses that and with his with
\nhis comments at the end of this <\/p>\n

70
\n00:03:58,900 –> 00:04:02,200
\nclass.
\nIs that even though we might all<\/p>\n

71
\n00:04:02,200 –> 00:04:05,200
\nbe struggling with something
\ndifferent at different times? <\/p>\n

72
\n00:04:05,200 –> 00:04:09,200
\nAnd in different ways we’re all
\nstruggling to try to follow <\/p>\n

73
\n00:04:09,200 –> 00:04:11,700
\nafter the example of Christ and
\nlive up to the ideals that God <\/p>\n

74
\n00:04:11,700 –> 00:04:15,100
\nhas set before us together and I
\nfound that to be a really <\/p>\n

75
\n00:04:15,100 –> 00:04:19,800
\ncomforting way to view it.
\nIt’s he makes the point that <\/p>\n

76
\n00:04:19,800 –> 00:04:22,600
\nit’s sometimes good to share
\nwith somebody that you have that<\/p>\n

77
\n00:04:22,600 –> 00:04:25,500
\ntrust and that relationship with
\nthat is something that is <\/p>\n

78
\n00:04:25,508 –> 00:04:28,700
\ndifficult to grow and develop
\nwith every single person as much<\/p>\n

79
\n00:04:28,700 –> 00:04:33,600
\nas we strive for that ideal.
\nSo instead even if without <\/p>\n

80
\n00:04:33,600 –> 00:04:36,000
\nrevealing what you’re struggling
\nwith you just acknowledge that <\/p>\n

81
\n00:04:36,100 –> 00:04:39,600
\neach person that you’re with is
\nstruggling with something. <\/p>\n

82
\n00:04:40,200 –> 00:04:44,500
\nThere is a camaraderie and a
\nfellowship in that sort of <\/p>\n

83
\n00:04:44,500 –> 00:04:48,700
\nmutual struggle as we all strive
\nto try to be more like Christ <\/p>\n

84
\n00:04:48,700 –> 00:04:53,000
\nwalk the path that leads to the
\nkingdom really excited to share <\/p>\n

85
\n00:04:53,000 –> 00:04:55,100
\nthis class with you.
\nI really enjoyed it the whole <\/p>\n

86
\n00:04:55,100 –> 00:04:56,500
\nseries.
\nI’m almost done with the series <\/p>\n

87
\n00:04:56,500 –> 00:04:59,100
\nin the series is great will be
\nmaking sure to get that up on <\/p>\n

88
\n00:04:59,108 –> 00:05:02,800
\nthe extended talks.
\nLater this week again apologies <\/p>\n

89
\n00:05:02,800 –> 00:05:05,800
\nfor it being a little bit later.
\nReally you can actually hear me <\/p>\n

90
\n00:05:05,800 –> 00:05:08,900
\nmake the intro this time instead
\nof there being nothing if I’d <\/p>\n

91
\n00:05:08,900 –> 00:05:11,800
\ndone it earlier in this week.
\nSo with that we’ll turn it over <\/p>\n

92
\n00:05:11,800 –> 00:05:15,300
\nto brother Dennis for his first
\nclass on the disciple that Jesus<\/p>\n

93
\n00:05:15,300 –> 00:05:18,400
\nloved.
\nI hope some of you have come <\/p>\n

94
\n00:05:18,400 –> 00:05:21,000
\nexcited to look for some nuggets
\nthis morning. <\/p>\n

95
\n00:05:21,300 –> 00:05:24,300
\nI look at Bible study as panning
\nfor gold. <\/p>\n

96
\n00:05:24,600 –> 00:05:27,900
\nThere’s a lot of sloshing around
\nand sometimes what you find is <\/p>\n

97
\n00:05:27,900 –> 00:05:29,600
\nnot all that useful and other
\ntimes. <\/p>\n

98
\n00:05:29,600 –> 00:05:35,400
\nIt’s the how did I not know that
\n10 20 30 40 years ago and if <\/p>\n

99
\n00:05:35,400 –> 00:05:38,800
\nyou’re consistently reading and
\nstudying you find those moments <\/p>\n

100
\n00:05:38,800 –> 00:05:41,300
\nand we’re going to pick up a
\ncouple of them this morning. <\/p>\n

101
\n00:05:41,700 –> 00:05:45,000
\nI love the idea that every time
\nwe crack open the pages of <\/p>\n

102
\n00:05:45,000 –> 00:05:48,000
\nscripture.
\nThere’s I think we probably have<\/p>\n

103
\n00:05:48,000 –> 00:05:51,500
\nread a dozen times that will be
\nbrand new. <\/p>\n

104
\n00:05:51,800 –> 00:05:55,500
\nThat’s what makes it exciting.
\nSo to get things started how <\/p>\n

105
\n00:05:55,500 –> 00:05:58,600
\nmany things did Jesus say from
\nthe tree you want to take a <\/p>\n

106
\n00:05:58,600 –> 00:06:01,900
\nguess but we’re allowed to do
\ngroup participation here, right?<\/p>\n

107
\n00:06:03,500 –> 00:06:06,800
\nApparently no because that are
\nall of you are in mime school. <\/p>\n

108
\n00:06:06,900 –> 00:06:07,800
\nYes.
\nOkay. <\/p>\n

109
\n00:06:07,900 –> 00:06:12,200
\nHow many things did Jesus say
\nfrom the tree seven very good. <\/p>\n

110
\n00:06:12,200 –> 00:06:15,000
\nSo if we look at the seven
\nthings that Jesus said from the <\/p>\n

111
\n00:06:15,000 –> 00:06:17,800
\ntree this would be an entirely
\ndifferent class and we’re not <\/p>\n

112
\n00:06:17,800 –> 00:06:20,100
\ngoing to do that.
\nBut I want to focus on the <\/p>\n

113
\n00:06:20,100 –> 00:06:25,400
\nfourth one Behold.
\nThy mother in each of these <\/p>\n

114
\n00:06:25,400 –> 00:06:28,400
\nSeven Things DJ Jesus was living
\na teaching moment. <\/p>\n

115
\n00:06:28,400 –> 00:06:31,500
\nHe was giving a lesson that
\ncould be applied immediately and<\/p>\n

116
\n00:06:31,500 –> 00:06:35,000
\nit’s recorded so you and I can
\nhear Thousand Years Later get <\/p>\n

117
\n00:06:35,000 –> 00:06:37,900
\nthat same message in this fourth
\none. <\/p>\n

118
\n00:06:37,900 –> 00:06:42,100
\nHe was teaching the principle of
\nadoption the concept of taking <\/p>\n

119
\n00:06:42,100 –> 00:06:46,100
\ncare of the Ecclesia during its
\ndarkest times in his absence. <\/p>\n

120
\n00:06:46,200 –> 00:06:50,800
\nAnd for his sake specifically
\nJohn was being entrusted by <\/p>\n

121
\n00:06:50,800 –> 00:06:53,200
\nJesus to take care of his mother
\nMary. <\/p>\n

122
\n00:06:56,300 –> 00:07:00,100
\nLet’s look at John 19.
\nWe’ll look that one up John <\/p>\n

123
\n00:07:00,100 –> 00:07:08,800
\nChapter 19, Verse 26 and 27.
\nWhen Jesus therefore saw his <\/p>\n

124
\n00:07:08,800 –> 00:07:12,100
\nmother and the disciple standing
\nby whom he loved he said unto <\/p>\n

125
\n00:07:12,100 –> 00:07:16,400
\nhis mother woman Behold.
\nThy son then saith he to the <\/p>\n

126
\n00:07:16,400 –> 00:07:20,000
\ndisciple Behold thy mother and
\nfrom that hour that disciple <\/p>\n

127
\n00:07:20,000 –> 00:07:24,100
\ntook her into his own home.
\nSo let’s start with something <\/p>\n

128
\n00:07:24,100 –> 00:07:27,600
\nreally depressing.
\nImagine for a minute you were <\/p>\n

129
\n00:07:27,600 –> 00:07:30,700
\ndying.
\nIt’s I know it’s depressing but <\/p>\n

130
\n00:07:30,700 –> 00:07:34,100
\nthink about if that’s too hard
\nimagine you’re going on a long <\/p>\n

131
\n00:07:34,100 –> 00:07:35,600
\nvacation.
\nYou’re going to be gone for a <\/p>\n

132
\n00:07:35,600 –> 00:07:37,900
\ncouple months.
\nAnd if it’s easier to do this <\/p>\n

133
\n00:07:37,900 –> 00:07:40,800
\nthinking of watching your pets
\nversus watching your mother do <\/p>\n

134
\n00:07:40,800 –> 00:07:44,300
\nwhat you have to do, but try to
\nget yourself in the place where <\/p>\n

135
\n00:07:44,300 –> 00:07:49,200
\nyou are where Jesus was he knows
\nwhat’s happening with him. <\/p>\n

136
\n00:07:49,200 –> 00:07:53,200
\nHe has reconciled his own
\nsacrifice and he is at one with <\/p>\n

137
\n00:07:53,200 –> 00:07:56,300
\nhis father mentally and
\nspiritually. <\/p>\n

138
\n00:07:57,400 –> 00:08:00,800
\nWouldn’t you if you were him be
\nconcerned about but what happens<\/p>\n

139
\n00:08:00,800 –> 00:08:03,100
\nto mom who I have always been
\nthere for. <\/p>\n

140
\n00:08:05,800 –> 00:08:09,900
\nIf we think about it from that
\npoint it gets us a chance to see<\/p>\n

141
\n00:08:09,900 –> 00:08:13,000
\na little bit of what Jesus would
\nhave thought when he made these <\/p>\n

142
\n00:08:13,200 –> 00:08:16,200
\nshort little bursts and a reason
\nall seven of them are short is <\/p>\n

143
\n00:08:16,200 –> 00:08:18,900
\nwhen you’re a crucified you
\nreally are dying of Suffocation.<\/p>\n

144
\n00:08:18,900 –> 00:08:23,500
\nThat’s not blood loss short
\nbreath get it is just enough out<\/p>\n

145
\n00:08:23,500 –> 00:08:28,100
\nto make your point.
\nThis is how Jesus saw his friend<\/p>\n

146
\n00:08:28,200 –> 00:08:33,700
\nand his disciple John Mary was
\nhandpicked by God as a teenager <\/p>\n

147
\n00:08:33,799 –> 00:08:37,500
\nto raise his son to Perfection
\nhere. <\/p>\n

148
\n00:08:37,900 –> 00:08:41,900
\nJesus is handpicking John to
\ntake care of Mary in her old age<\/p>\n

149
\n00:08:42,700 –> 00:08:46,300
\nJohn therefore by virtue of this
\ndecision becomes a surrogate <\/p>\n

150
\n00:08:46,300 –> 00:08:49,400
\nfamily member to Jesus and
\ntherefore an example to all of <\/p>\n

151
\n00:08:49,400 –> 00:08:51,300
\nus taking care of the needs of
\neach other. <\/p>\n

152
\n00:08:51,500 –> 00:08:54,700
\nIt makes him extremely qualified
\nto write this letter. <\/p>\n

153
\n00:08:55,500 –> 00:08:58,900
\nWe are going to consider it’s a
\ngood thing John wrote a few <\/p>\n

154
\n00:08:58,900 –> 00:09:02,400
\nthings because we can impair
\ncompare his words to history and<\/p>\n

155
\n00:09:02,400 –> 00:09:05,200
\nwe shall let’s look a little bit
\nat John the Apostle. <\/p>\n

156
\n00:09:05,200 –> 00:09:09,800
\nSo his name means Grace of yah,
\nor Yaya has been gracious. <\/p>\n

157
\n00:09:10,900 –> 00:09:13,900
\nHe is called one of the sons of
\nthunder and Mark 3 verse 17. <\/p>\n

158
\n00:09:13,900 –> 00:09:16,300
\nWe won’t look that one up.
\nHe was in business as a <\/p>\n

159
\n00:09:16,308 –> 00:09:19,800
\nfisherman with his brother James
\nas well as with Peter and Andrew<\/p>\n

160
\n00:09:20,000 –> 00:09:23,700
\nand as such was among the first
\nof the twelve called parents <\/p>\n

161
\n00:09:23,700 –> 00:09:27,200
\nZebedee and Salome.
\nHe witnessed some key things in <\/p>\n

162
\n00:09:27,200 –> 00:09:30,400
\nthe life of Jesus the
\nresurrection of Jarius daughter.<\/p>\n

163
\n00:09:30,400 –> 00:09:34,200
\nFor example, the Transfiguration
\nof vision of Jesus in the <\/p>\n

164
\n00:09:34,200 –> 00:09:36,800
\nKingdom.
\nThe Olivet prophecy being <\/p>\n

165
\n00:09:36,800 –> 00:09:41,300
\nexplained the Last Supper The
\nGarden of Gethsemane the <\/p>\n

166
\n00:09:41,300 –> 00:09:44,800
\ncrucifixion as we already noted
\nand indeed the resurrection of <\/p>\n

167
\n00:09:44,800 –> 00:09:47,500
\nJesus.
\nHe and Peter had a history <\/p>\n

168
\n00:09:47,500 –> 00:09:51,200
\ntogether at started even before
\nthe narrative began for us and <\/p>\n

169
\n00:09:51,200 –> 00:09:54,000
\nit continued all the way till
\nPeter’s death and approximately <\/p>\n

170
\n00:09:54,000 –> 00:09:57,400
\nad 67.
\nTogether they were noted for <\/p>\n

171
\n00:09:57,400 –> 00:10:00,600
\ntheir Zeal and often times.
\nWe see Peter at the forefoot. <\/p>\n

172
\n00:10:00,600 –> 00:10:03,800
\nBut John to was this way.
\nWe’ll look at one verse that <\/p>\n

173
\n00:10:03,800 –> 00:10:09,900
\nshows that this is Luke 9 + 54
\nAnd when his disciples James and<\/p>\n

174
\n00:10:09,900 –> 00:10:12,900
\nJohn saw this they said Lord
\nwilt thou that we command fire <\/p>\n

175
\n00:10:12,900 –> 00:10:16,400
\nto come down from heaven and
\nconsume them even as Elias did <\/p>\n

176
\n00:10:16,800 –> 00:10:19,100
\nso here we see the sons of
\nthunder getting closer. <\/p>\n

177
\n00:10:19,100 –> 00:10:23,400
\nThey’re closer to their name and
\nyou can imagine nothing caps off<\/p>\n

178
\n00:10:23,400 –> 00:10:27,200
\na successful preaching effort,
\nbut better than electrocuting <\/p>\n

179
\n00:10:27,200 –> 00:10:30,700
\neveryone who didn’t convert.
\nI mean think think about that <\/p>\n

180
\n00:10:30,700 –> 00:10:33,700
\npower at their hand.
\nYou don’t want to hear it. <\/p>\n

181
\n00:10:33,700 –> 00:10:37,600
\nI’ve got a new message for you.
\nLet’s look at verse 10. <\/p>\n

182
\n00:10:38,300 –> 00:10:41,900
\nSorry Mark 10 in Mark 10 versus
\n35 through 37. <\/p>\n

183
\n00:10:43,200 –> 00:10:46,500
\nJames and John the sons of
\nZebedee came unto him saying <\/p>\n

184
\n00:10:46,500 –> 00:10:49,200
\nMaster we would that thou
\nshouldst do for us whatsoever. <\/p>\n

185
\n00:10:49,200 –> 00:10:51,400
\nWe use as iron and he said unto
\nthem. <\/p>\n

186
\n00:10:51,800 –> 00:10:53,600
\nWhat would you that I should do
\nfor you? <\/p>\n

187
\n00:10:53,700 –> 00:10:57,100
\nHe said Grant unto us that we
\nmay sit one on my right hand and<\/p>\n

188
\n00:10:57,100 –> 00:11:00,300
\none on my left and I Glory these
\nflies are fun. <\/p>\n

189
\n00:11:00,300 –> 00:11:02,700
\nAnd I showered this morning.
\nI there has to be somebody in <\/p>\n

190
\n00:11:02,700 –> 00:11:04,300
\nthis room.
\nThat didn’t work Camp. <\/p>\n

191
\n00:11:04,400 –> 00:11:09,500
\nWhy are they around me?
\nAll right, here here is right <\/p>\n

192
\n00:11:09,500 –> 00:11:12,900
\nafter Jesus tells them that he
\nwill eventually be scourged. <\/p>\n

193
\n00:11:13,000 –> 00:11:18,200
\nAnd die before Rising again.
\nBut their focus is clearly not <\/p>\n

194
\n00:11:18,200 –> 00:11:21,600
\non him and his needs their focus
\nis on them and their needs and <\/p>\n

195
\n00:11:21,600 –> 00:11:26,400
\nthat makes it very interesting
\nto us because we focus on what <\/p>\n

196
\n00:11:26,400 –> 00:11:30,800
\nwe need and what we feel I’ve
\nsaid this before many of you <\/p>\n

197
\n00:11:30,808 –> 00:11:32,200
\nhave heard it.
\nI’m going to spit out a few <\/p>\n

198
\n00:11:32,200 –> 00:11:33,900
\nthings.
\nYou probably heard me say before<\/p>\n

199
\n00:11:34,200 –> 00:11:36,800
\nbut you know what the difference
\nbetween major surgery and minor <\/p>\n

200
\n00:11:36,800 –> 00:11:43,900
\nsurgery is major surgery is when
\nit happens to me minor surgery <\/p>\n

201
\n00:11:43,900 –> 00:11:47,400
\nis when it happens to you.
\nI know you had that little <\/p>\n

202
\n00:11:47,400 –> 00:11:50,200
\noutpatient heart for surgery
\nyesterday. <\/p>\n

203
\n00:11:50,200 –> 00:11:54,300
\nI had a pinky toe removed that
\nlittle nail had hose terrible <\/p>\n

204
\n00:11:54,300 –> 00:11:57,500
\nthree days could barely walk
\nbecause we think about us in our<\/p>\n

205
\n00:11:57,500 –> 00:12:01,900
\npain we tend to minimize the
\npain of others and so here we <\/p>\n

206
\n00:12:01,900 –> 00:12:05,800
\nsee John understanding this in
\nhimself because as he’s writing <\/p>\n

207
\n00:12:05,800 –> 00:12:08,400
\nthis as a much older more mature
\nspiritually man. <\/p>\n

208
\n00:12:08,900 –> 00:12:11,300
\nHe can learn some of the lessons
\nthat we’re going through now and<\/p>\n

209
\n00:12:11,300 –> 00:12:15,200
\nthis is a way of sharing with
\nhis family by putting our focus <\/p>\n

210
\n00:12:15,200 –> 00:12:17,700
\non ourselves.
\nWe miss the opportunity to see <\/p>\n

211
\n00:12:17,700 –> 00:12:21,800
\nsomebody else’s pain part of a
\ncollegial life is recognizing. <\/p>\n

212
\n00:12:21,800 –> 00:12:25,200
\nMy pain is not alone.
\nEveryone in this room is <\/p>\n

213
\n00:12:25,200 –> 00:12:27,700
\nsuffering from something.
\nI don’t know what it is. <\/p>\n

214
\n00:12:27,700 –> 00:12:32,800
\nI don’t need to know what it is.
\nBut I know that it’s true if we <\/p>\n

215
\n00:12:32,800 –> 00:12:35,800
\ncan acknowledge that we’re all
\ngoing through something <\/p>\n

216
\n00:12:35,900 –> 00:12:38,100
\ntogether.
\nWe are not going alone. <\/p>\n

217
\n00:12:39,300 –> 00:12:43,300
\nSo, of course in his youth Jesus
\nnow rebukes them and the other <\/p>\n

218
\n00:12:43,300 –> 00:12:46,700
\ndisciples and they were all of
\ncourse the rest of the disciples<\/p>\n

219
\n00:12:46,700 –> 00:12:50,100
\nwere less than impressed, but it
\ndid not ruin their relationship <\/p>\n

220
\n00:12:50,100 –> 00:12:54,500
\nand that’s important because it
\nis very easy for us to have an <\/p>\n

221
\n00:12:54,500 –> 00:12:57,200
\nAmo meant where one of us does
\nsomething that the other ones <\/p>\n

222
\n00:12:57,200 –> 00:13:00,400
\nnot happy with if I have not
\ndisappointed you at some point <\/p>\n

223
\n00:13:00,400 –> 00:13:01,700
\nin your life.
\nDon’t worry. <\/p>\n

224
\n00:13:01,700 –> 00:13:04,900
\nIt’s coming the same is also
\ntrue the odds of you <\/p>\n

225
\n00:13:04,900 –> 00:13:08,300
\ndisappointing me or there if we
\nspend any real time together the<\/p>\n

226
\n00:13:08,300 –> 00:13:10,500
\nproblem is That disappointment
\nhappens. <\/p>\n

227
\n00:13:10,600 –> 00:13:13,700
\nWhat do we do with it?
\nDo we hold on to that thing? <\/p>\n

228
\n00:13:13,700 –> 00:13:16,000
\nThat was 10 20 30 40 50 years
\nago. <\/p>\n

229
\n00:13:16,000 –> 00:13:20,500
\nLike they couldn’t possibly have
\ngrown from that moment to or do <\/p>\n

230
\n00:13:20,500 –> 00:13:24,100
\nwe see it as an opportunity as a
\nbump in the road to hurdle <\/p>\n

231
\n00:13:24,100 –> 00:13:26,800
\ntogether that actually makes our
\nrelationship stronger. <\/p>\n

232
\n00:13:27,500 –> 00:13:31,600
\nIn fact, John records some of
\nthe most beautiful stories of <\/p>\n

233
\n00:13:31,600 –> 00:13:35,200
\nJesus life that make all of
\nthose statements very emotional <\/p>\n

234
\n00:13:35,400 –> 00:13:39,400
\nand very personal.
\nA brief excerpt is quoted as <\/p>\n

235
\n00:13:39,400 –> 00:13:41,700
\ntaking out a John 21 will look
\nat that one. <\/p>\n

236
\n00:13:41,700 –> 00:13:44,200
\nVery briefly.
\nThis one is John getting to <\/p>\n

237
\n00:13:44,200 –> 00:13:45,900
\nwrite about his dear friend
\nPeter. <\/p>\n

238
\n00:13:48,500 –> 00:13:50,400
\nWe’re all very familiar with
\nthis story. <\/p>\n

239
\n00:13:50,600 –> 00:13:55,700
\nThe story uses two different
\nwords for love this the Jesus <\/p>\n

240
\n00:13:55,700 –> 00:13:58,000
\nsays to Peter.
\nDo you have a self-sacrificing <\/p>\n

241
\n00:13:58,000 –> 00:14:01,100
\nlove for me and Peter responds?
\nYou know, I have an affection <\/p>\n

242
\n00:14:01,100 –> 00:14:04,000
\nfor you and he says the same
\nthing as second time and in the <\/p>\n

243
\n00:14:04,000 –> 00:14:06,200
\nEnglish, it looks like well, why
\nis he irritated? <\/p>\n

244
\n00:14:06,200 –> 00:14:07,600
\nHe didn’t want to answer Jesus
\nquestion. <\/p>\n

245
\n00:14:07,600 –> 00:14:09,600
\nAgain.
\nIt has nothing to do with the <\/p>\n

246
\n00:14:09,600 –> 00:14:12,800
\nquestion in English.
\nIt is all about the change in <\/p>\n

247
\n00:14:12,800 –> 00:14:16,900
\nthe third time the word appears
\nin Greek the third time he says,<\/p>\n

248
\n00:14:17,000 –> 00:14:23,000
\nIt it verse 17.
\nIs one of the most tender pieces<\/p>\n

249
\n00:14:23,000 –> 00:14:27,200
\nfor us to remember?
\nHe said unto him the third time <\/p>\n

250
\n00:14:27,200 –> 00:14:30,900
\nSimon son of Jonah but lovest
\nthou me and Peter was grieved <\/p>\n

251
\n00:14:30,900 –> 00:14:33,700
\nbecause into he said unto him
\nthe third time lovest thou me <\/p>\n

252
\n00:14:33,700 –> 00:14:37,400
\nthis time.
\nJesus uses Peter word. <\/p>\n

253
\n00:14:37,600 –> 00:14:40,600
\nHe doesn’t say do you have a
\nself-sacrificing love for me? <\/p>\n

254
\n00:14:40,600 –> 00:14:43,300
\nHe knows the answer to that one.
\nHe now says you have an <\/p>\n

255
\n00:14:43,300 –> 00:14:46,800
\naffection for me and it Grieves
\nPeter because he knows it’s <\/p>\n

256
\n00:14:46,800 –> 00:14:50,100
\ntrue.
\nAnd the most important piece <\/p>\n

257
\n00:14:50,100 –> 00:14:56,500
\nabout that whole exchange is
\nthat Jesus loved Peter where <\/p>\n

258
\n00:14:56,500 –> 00:15:00,500
\nPeter was he does?
\nNot say to Peter what’s wrong <\/p>\n

259
\n00:15:00,500 –> 00:15:01,500
\nwith you?
\nYou have to have a <\/p>\n

260
\n00:15:01,500 –> 00:15:03,600
\nself-sacrificing love.
\nYou’ve got to get there. <\/p>\n

261
\n00:15:03,600 –> 00:15:07,500
\nThere’s he does not say that
\nPeter does get there, but it’s <\/p>\n

262
\n00:15:07,500 –> 00:15:11,300
\nyears later.
\nImagine how different Peter <\/p>\n

263
\n00:15:11,300 –> 00:15:14,100
\nwould have been had Jesus not
\nbeen able to love him in his <\/p>\n

264
\n00:15:14,100 –> 00:15:17,900
\nweakness knowing he would grow
\ninto something far greater. <\/p>\n

265
\n00:15:18,800 –> 00:15:24,900
\nJohn gets to record that not
\njust about his friend but also <\/p>\n

266
\n00:15:25,100 –> 00:15:27,700
\nhe gets to record it about his
\nLord. <\/p>\n

267
\n00:15:30,400 –> 00:15:33,200
\nSo it’s believed that the fourth
\ngospel in the New Testament was <\/p>\n

268
\n00:15:33,200 –> 00:15:37,800
\nthe last one written most people
\nbelieve it somewhere after ad <\/p>\n

269
\n00:15:37,800 –> 00:15:41,900
\n70, but well before the Apostle
\nthe Epistles were written which <\/p>\n

270
\n00:15:41,900 –> 00:15:46,300
\nis around a D90 so it would
\nexplain why he does tackle some <\/p>\n

271
\n00:15:46,300 –> 00:15:48,800
\nissues that the other three
\ngospel writers don’t they’re <\/p>\n

272
\n00:15:48,800 –> 00:15:52,400
\ndifficult in nature and they
\nwere mature Topics in Jesus <\/p>\n

273
\n00:15:52,400 –> 00:15:54,100
\nlife.
\nThey were topics that none of <\/p>\n

274
\n00:15:54,100 –> 00:15:57,900
\nthem understood when it happened
\nincluding John things like the <\/p>\n

275
\n00:15:57,900 –> 00:16:02,000
\nprayer of John 17.
\nThe description of Jesus <\/p>\n

276
\n00:16:02,000 –> 00:16:06,900
\npersonal faith in chapter 18 or
\nthe belief system of chapter XX <\/p>\n

277
\n00:16:06,900 –> 00:16:10,900
\nas well as the most detailed
\naccount of his death at the <\/p>\n

278
\n00:16:10,900 –> 00:16:12,600
\ntime.
\nThey happened all of the <\/p>\n

279
\n00:16:12,600 –> 00:16:17,000
\ndisciples were confused and they
\nscattered but with experience <\/p>\n

280
\n00:16:17,300 –> 00:16:21,400
\nand hindsight and of course the
\ninspiration of God, it would <\/p>\n

281
\n00:16:21,400 –> 00:16:25,000
\nhave aided him in this task of
\nrecording those events for our <\/p>\n

282
\n00:16:25,000 –> 00:16:29,400
\nbenefit.
\nJohn chapter 21 and verse 20 <\/p>\n

283
\n00:16:31,600 –> 00:16:34,800
\nPeter turning about seeing the
\ndisciple whom Jesus loved <\/p>\n

284
\n00:16:34,800 –> 00:16:37,600
\nfollowing which also leaned on
\nhis breast at supper and said <\/p>\n

285
\n00:16:37,600 –> 00:16:40,100
\nLord, which is he that betrayeth
\nthee. <\/p>\n

286
\n00:16:41,200 –> 00:16:43,900
\nThroughout the book John refers
\nto himself in the third person <\/p>\n

287
\n00:16:43,900 –> 00:16:47,900
\nas the disciple whom Jesus loved
\nand that’s the Greek word Agape.<\/p>\n

288
\n00:16:47,900 –> 00:16:51,100
\nOh, which is the verb form of
\nthe word Agape. <\/p>\n

289
\n00:16:51,100 –> 00:16:55,100
\nIt’s the action word for
\nself-sacrificing love it puts <\/p>\n

290
\n00:16:55,100 –> 00:16:57,600
\nhim in the middle of these
\nsensitive and critical events, <\/p>\n

291
\n00:16:58,200 –> 00:17:00,900
\nbut he almost looks at it as an
\noutsider and I think that’s <\/p>\n

292
\n00:17:00,900 –> 00:17:03,500
\nbecause he’s writing as an
\noutsider. <\/p>\n

293
\n00:17:03,800 –> 00:17:06,400
\nHe couldn’t have wrote these
\nwords if he’d stopped riding <\/p>\n

294
\n00:17:06,400 –> 00:17:09,400
\nright after the started writing
\nright after the crucifixion but <\/p>\n

295
\n00:17:09,400 –> 00:17:13,500
\nlooking back in his Shared State
\nhe’s able to see the love of <\/p>\n

296
\n00:17:13,500 –> 00:17:18,700
\nJesus towards him and towards
\nall of them even in his most <\/p>\n

297
\n00:17:18,700 –> 00:17:22,400
\ndesperate time of need and
\nthough all of them were utterly <\/p>\n

298
\n00:17:22,400 –> 00:17:27,200
\nundeserving of that love.
\nWe of course can relate that to <\/p>\n

299
\n00:17:27,200 –> 00:17:29,300
\nourselves.
\nNone of us comes to the table of<\/p>\n

300
\n00:17:29,300 –> 00:17:32,500
\nthe memorials and says you have
\nhad a pretty good week. <\/p>\n

301
\n00:17:33,600 –> 00:17:36,200
\nI haven’t messed up at all.
\nNo sin on me. <\/p>\n

302
\n00:17:37,100 –> 00:17:41,700
\nWe all come to the table humbled
\nby some of the misery our life <\/p>\n

303
\n00:17:41,700 –> 00:17:45,700
\nincludes and just imagining for
\na moment us standing before the <\/p>\n

304
\n00:17:45,700 –> 00:17:50,400
\nJudgment seat of our Lord and
\nhow surprising it will be to <\/p>\n

305
\n00:17:50,400 –> 00:17:53,600
\nhear words that look past the
\nsin. <\/p>\n

306
\n00:17:53,600 –> 00:17:57,700
\nWe know we brought to that table
\nbecause he loved us at our <\/p>\n

307
\n00:17:57,700 –> 00:18:01,400
\nweakest point.
\nIn fact, we could make an <\/p>\n

308
\n00:18:01,400 –> 00:18:04,000
\nargument that we should start
\ncalling him the love disciple. <\/p>\n

309
\n00:18:04,100 –> 00:18:08,800
\nI’m not but we could the next
\ncouple verses close the gospel <\/p>\n

310
\n00:18:08,800 –> 00:18:12,700
\ndetail with us the start of a
\nrumor that John would live until<\/p>\n

311
\n00:18:12,700 –> 00:18:15,600
\nthe coming of the Kingdom.
\nCertainly that was fed by his <\/p>\n

312
\n00:18:15,600 –> 00:18:20,400
\nexperience history and tradition
\ntells us that John was boiled in<\/p>\n

313
\n00:18:20,400 –> 00:18:25,200
\noil by Dimension, but he
\nsurvived it that adds Credence <\/p>\n

314
\n00:18:25,200 –> 00:18:27,400
\nto he’s not dying till Jesus
\ncomes back. <\/p>\n

315
\n00:18:28,200 –> 00:18:30,800
\nHe was then exiled on the Of
\nPatmos where he wrote the <\/p>\n

316
\n00:18:30,808 –> 00:18:34,200
\nclosing words of scripture and
\nthe final off sign off for Jesus<\/p>\n

317
\n00:18:34,200 –> 00:18:37,700
\nhimself in the apocalypse.
\nSo we’ll touch that briefly. <\/p>\n

318
\n00:18:38,600 –> 00:18:42,300
\nWe know that was written in 1896
\nand it provides the culmination <\/p>\n

319
\n00:18:42,300 –> 00:18:45,400
\nof the work of Jesus in the
\nEcclesia and God in his calling <\/p>\n

320
\n00:18:45,400 –> 00:18:50,300
\nout a people for his name loads
\nof connections to Genesis. <\/p>\n

321
\n00:18:50,600 –> 00:18:53,900
\nIt’s filled with references to
\nthe Tabernacle and the plagues <\/p>\n

322
\n00:18:53,900 –> 00:18:56,400
\nof Exodus which will focus more
\non that towards the end of the <\/p>\n

323
\n00:18:56,400 –> 00:18:59,500
\nweek.
\nThe prophecy of Daniel becomes <\/p>\n

324
\n00:18:59,500 –> 00:19:04,200
\npart 1 to the apocalypse.
\nSo John showing us an astounding<\/p>\n

325
\n00:19:04,200 –> 00:19:09,000
\ndepth of incredible knowledge as
\na servant of God and a student <\/p>\n

326
\n00:19:09,000 –> 00:19:12,500
\nof his word and that’s how all
\nof us wish to end. <\/p>\n

327
\n00:19:12,500 –> 00:19:16,300
\nOur days will end this series
\nclearly seeing the influence on <\/p>\n

328
\n00:19:16,300 –> 00:19:21,300
\nthe Tabernacle in this letter
\none last comment before we dive <\/p>\n

329
\n00:19:21,300 –> 00:19:28,000
\ninto the Epistles. the very last
\nverse of scripture the grace of <\/p>\n

330
\n00:19:28,000 –> 00:19:31,500
\nthe Lord Jesus Christ be with
\nyou all amen. <\/p>\n

331
\n00:19:32,500 –> 00:19:35,800
\nNot only did John get the
\nprivilege to record the last <\/p>\n

332
\n00:19:35,800 –> 00:19:40,300
\nword of Jesus and the closing
\ncomments of our father, but the <\/p>\n

333
\n00:19:40,300 –> 00:19:43,400
\nlast verse in scripture includes
\na play on his name. <\/p>\n

334
\n00:19:45,100 –> 00:19:49,100
\nThe grace John of the Lord Jesus
\nChrist be with you all. <\/p>\n

335
\n00:19:49,900 –> 00:19:53,000
\nAmen.
\nAll right. <\/p>\n

336
\n00:19:53,000 –> 00:19:55,600
\nLet’s start with the material
\nyou came here for that’s quite <\/p>\n

337
\n00:19:55,600 –> 00:19:57,300
\nan introduction and I know that
\nclocks wrong. <\/p>\n

338
\n00:19:57,300 –> 00:19:58,900
\nI have to keep resetting my
\nhead. <\/p>\n

339
\n00:20:02,100 –> 00:20:04,500
\nOf the three Epistles.
\nThis one is the longest one in <\/p>\n

340
\n00:20:04,500 –> 00:20:07,800
\nfor good reason the other two
\nare offshoots of this first one <\/p>\n

341
\n00:20:07,800 –> 00:20:10,700
\nand they showed direct
\napplication to them. <\/p>\n

342
\n00:20:10,900 –> 00:20:14,000
\nBut the first is the Baseline so
\nthe second one is kind of <\/p>\n

343
\n00:20:14,100 –> 00:20:17,500
\npicking out one thing here one
\nthing there but they’re all <\/p>\n

344
\n00:20:17,500 –> 00:20:20,700
\nbuilt on the same comments.
\nSo the first epistle is really <\/p>\n

345
\n00:20:20,700 –> 00:20:25,000
\nthe truth in the Ecclesia, which
\nis all of our charge to make <\/p>\n

346
\n00:20:25,000 –> 00:20:30,400
\nsure the precious truth survives
\nOur Generation to convey the <\/p>\n

347
\n00:20:30,600 –> 00:20:33,400
\nconcept of And studying our
\nBible. <\/p>\n

348
\n00:20:33,400 –> 00:20:36,300
\nIt’s a critical thing to our
\ncommunity to make sure we are <\/p>\n

349
\n00:20:36,300 –> 00:20:39,900
\nalways reading and studying so
\nthat we make sure we stay on <\/p>\n

350
\n00:20:39,900 –> 00:20:44,500
\nthat path that leads to Life The
\nSecond Epistle is the truth in <\/p>\n

351
\n00:20:44,500 –> 00:20:47,300
\nthe home and truly.
\nOur Ecclesia has are nothing <\/p>\n

352
\n00:20:47,300 –> 00:20:49,400
\nmore than a collection of
\nsmaller family. <\/p>\n

353
\n00:20:49,400 –> 00:20:52,900
\nEcclesia has that shelters from
\nthe outside world and comes <\/p>\n

354
\n00:20:52,900 –> 00:20:56,500
\ntogether as a body.
\nThe third one is a truth in the <\/p>\n

355
\n00:20:56,500 –> 00:20:59,400
\nindividual is the truth in the
\nindividual and it speaks of our <\/p>\n

356
\n00:20:59,400 –> 00:21:03,900
\nindividual responsibility and
\nOnce in the community We Serve <\/p>\n

357
\n00:21:03,900 –> 00:21:07,600
\nAll In The Name of Jesus.
\nSo by the time John writes these<\/p>\n

358
\n00:21:07,700 –> 00:21:11,700
\nhe is the only surviving Apostle
\nwhich makes him the highest <\/p>\n

359
\n00:21:11,700 –> 00:21:14,100
\nliving Authority on living a
\nlife in Christ. <\/p>\n

360
\n00:21:14,300 –> 00:21:16,600
\nAnd so we’ll start by dissenting
\nhis words. <\/p>\n

361
\n00:21:19,000 –> 00:21:21,600
\nThat which was from the
\nbeginning which you have heard <\/p>\n

362
\n00:21:21,900 –> 00:21:24,700
\nand we have seen with our eyes
\nwhich we have looked upon in our<\/p>\n

363
\n00:21:24,700 –> 00:21:26,600
\nhands have handled of the word
\nof life. <\/p>\n

364
\n00:21:27,600 –> 00:21:30,700
\nSo we can notice some striking
\nsimilarities to the opening of <\/p>\n

365
\n00:21:30,700 –> 00:21:34,900
\nthis verse to the original
\ngospel account in John chapter 1<\/p>\n

366
\n00:21:34,900 –> 00:21:39,600
\nand verse 1 we all seek
\nconnection between this epistle <\/p>\n

367
\n00:21:39,600 –> 00:21:42,600
\nand the gospel and there’s a lot
\nof them will look up some some <\/p>\n

368
\n00:21:42,600 –> 00:21:45,800
\nwill just note as we move along
\nbut you can see that the <\/p>\n

369
\n00:21:45,800 –> 00:21:49,200
\nEpistles were all building on
\nwhat the gospel had laid as a <\/p>\n

370
\n00:21:49,208 –> 00:21:53,700
\nfoundation so in both cases,
\nhe’s going back to a foundation <\/p>\n

371
\n00:21:53,700 –> 00:21:57,100
\nstarting in John 1.
\nAnd in first John one going <\/p>\n

372
\n00:21:57,100 –> 00:22:00,600
\nreally To the concept of God
\nfilling the Earth with his glory<\/p>\n

373
\n00:22:01,300 –> 00:22:06,300
\nthe path to the glory of God is
\nthrough Jesus whom John heard <\/p>\n

374
\n00:22:06,600 –> 00:22:11,500
\nJohn saw and John handled.
\nHe was an eyewitness to the word<\/p>\n

375
\n00:22:11,500 –> 00:22:15,700
\nof life where the word was made
\nflesh and dwelt or tabernacled <\/p>\n

376
\n00:22:15,700 –> 00:22:20,300
\namong them and we beheld His
\nGlory Full of Grace and Truth. <\/p>\n

377
\n00:22:20,900 –> 00:22:23,500
\nHere’s just a couple of excerpts
\nfrom the gospel to connect this <\/p>\n

378
\n00:22:23,500 –> 00:22:26,300
\nthought will start where he’s
\ndriving back as a jumping off <\/p>\n

379
\n00:22:26,300 –> 00:22:32,400
\npoint John 7 verse 16 Where
\nJesus said my Doctrine is not <\/p>\n

380
\n00:22:32,400 –> 00:22:36,600
\nmine, but him that sent me we
\ncould probably all Quote second <\/p>\n

381
\n00:22:36,600 –> 00:22:39,100
\nTimothy 3 and 16 that’ll save us
\na slide. <\/p>\n

382
\n00:22:39,700 –> 00:22:43,500
\nWhy why is that so important
\nthat the man of God may be <\/p>\n

383
\n00:22:43,500 –> 00:22:47,000
\nperfect throughly furnished unto
\nall good works. <\/p>\n

384
\n00:22:47,000 –> 00:22:49,700
\nSo it’s not just the Assembly of
\ninformation. <\/p>\n

385
\n00:22:49,800 –> 00:22:51,900
\nWe don’t read and study just so
\nwe can go. <\/p>\n

386
\n00:22:51,900 –> 00:22:53,600
\nOkay.
\nI’ve got one more note in my <\/p>\n

387
\n00:22:53,600 –> 00:22:57,600
\nBible one more Mark in my margin
\none more nugget to share. <\/p>\n

388
\n00:22:57,800 –> 00:23:03,000
\nThose are all good things.
\nA reason we do it is it supposed<\/p>\n

389
\n00:23:03,000 –> 00:23:08,600
\nto develop in US character that
\nour works would be seen that the<\/p>\n

390
\n00:23:08,600 –> 00:23:13,000
\ntruth is changing all of us.
\nWe’re all vessels that are work <\/p>\n

391
\n00:23:13,000 –> 00:23:16,000
\nin progress.
\nSo it’s not study to learn <\/p>\n

392
\n00:23:16,100 –> 00:23:21,200
\nexclusively in Hyde is to study
\nto learn and apply that we might<\/p>\n

393
\n00:23:21,200 –> 00:23:29,200
\ngrow. his chapter 5 verse 36 but
\nI have greater witness than that<\/p>\n

394
\n00:23:29,200 –> 00:23:32,100
\nof John for The Works, which the
\nfather has given me to finish <\/p>\n

395
\n00:23:32,100 –> 00:23:35,600
\nthe same works that I do bear
\nwitness of me that the father <\/p>\n

396
\n00:23:35,600 –> 00:23:40,700
\nhas sent me drop down to verse
\n39 search the scriptures for in <\/p>\n

397
\n00:23:40,700 –> 00:23:42,500
\nthem.
\nYou think you have eternal life <\/p>\n

398
\n00:23:42,600 –> 00:23:44,400
\nand they are they which testify
\nme. <\/p>\n

399
\n00:23:45,200 –> 00:23:48,100
\nSo we’re thinking now of John
\nthe Baptist going back to <\/p>\n

400
\n00:23:48,100 –> 00:23:51,800
\nchapter 1 if we would the
\nconcept to search the scriptures<\/p>\n

401
\n00:23:51,800 –> 00:23:55,900
\nto let the scriptures be where
\nwe spend our time and energy <\/p>\n

402
\n00:23:56,000 –> 00:24:00,300
\nthat’s where the fruit is.
\nNow when he makes reference to <\/p>\n

403
\n00:24:00,300 –> 00:24:04,000
\nthe word being handled, where
\ndoes your mind go? <\/p>\n

404
\n00:24:06,300 –> 00:24:09,200
\nWhere do we where does your mind
\ngo and talks about that we have <\/p>\n

405
\n00:24:09,200 –> 00:24:11,700
\nseen upon looked upon and then
\nour hands have handled. <\/p>\n

406
\n00:24:11,700 –> 00:24:16,900
\nWho are you thinking of?
\nThomas somebody said I don’t <\/p>\n

407
\n00:24:16,900 –> 00:24:18,400
\nknow who it was.
\nBut thank you giving me some <\/p>\n

408
\n00:24:18,400 –> 00:24:21,700
\nhelp Thomas our mind goes back
\nto Thomas. <\/p>\n

409
\n00:24:21,700 –> 00:24:24,100
\nIn fact, that word is only used
\nfour times. <\/p>\n

410
\n00:24:24,300 –> 00:24:27,000
\nThis is the last one.
\nThe first one is in reference to<\/p>\n

411
\n00:24:27,000 –> 00:24:32,100
\nThomas Luke 24 verse 39, John is
\nthe only one that records that <\/p>\n

412
\n00:24:32,100 –> 00:24:35,500
\nevent in detail and he calls out
\nThomas by name. <\/p>\n

413
\n00:24:36,700 –> 00:24:40,200
\nNone of us were eyewitnesses to
\nthe suffering of Jesus so we can<\/p>\n

414
\n00:24:40,200 –> 00:24:43,700
\nall relate to that in some
\ndegree and as he’s writing this <\/p>\n

415
\n00:24:44,200 –> 00:24:47,200
\nhe’s writing to an audience that
\ncan relate to Thomas. <\/p>\n

416
\n00:24:49,100 –> 00:24:53,400
\nVerse 2 for the life was
\nmanifested that we have seen it <\/p>\n

417
\n00:24:53,400 –> 00:24:57,700
\nand bear witness and show unto
\nyou that eternal life which was <\/p>\n

418
\n00:24:57,700 –> 00:25:01,600
\nwith us with us from the father
\nand was manifested unto us. <\/p>\n

419
\n00:25:02,900 –> 00:25:06,400
\nThe word show in the RSV is
\nproclaimed its the spirit of <\/p>\n

420
\n00:25:06,400 –> 00:25:11,600
\nlearning and sharing.
\nJohn 17 and 3 says this is life <\/p>\n

421
\n00:25:11,600 –> 00:25:14,700
\neternal that they might Know
\nThee the only true God and Jesus<\/p>\n

422
\n00:25:14,700 –> 00:25:18,200
\nChrist whom thou has sent and
\nit’s part of a recorded prayer <\/p>\n

423
\n00:25:18,200 –> 00:25:22,900
\nlater in verse 21 that says that
\nthey may all be one as Thou Art <\/p>\n

424
\n00:25:22,900 –> 00:25:28,800
\nfather in me and I in thee this
\nconcept of unity of purpose and <\/p>\n

425
\n00:25:28,800 –> 00:25:32,300
\nspirit.
\nThis is when we can all be one <\/p>\n

426
\n00:25:32,300 –> 00:25:34,800
\nwith the father and the son
\nfulfilling that promise of <\/p>\n

427
\n00:25:34,800 –> 00:25:36,400
\nfilling the Earth with
\nexploring. <\/p>\n

428
\n00:25:36,600 –> 00:25:39,500
\nIt’s a stepping stone that we’re
\nall trying to work towards. <\/p>\n

429
\n00:25:41,300 –> 00:25:45,400
\nA verse 3 that which you have
\nseen and heard declare we unto <\/p>\n

430
\n00:25:45,400 –> 00:25:49,500
\nyou that you also may have
\nfellowship with us and truly our<\/p>\n

431
\n00:25:49,500 –> 00:25:53,000
\nfellowship is with the father
\nand with his son Jesus Christ. <\/p>\n

432
\n00:25:54,200 –> 00:25:58,300
\nThis is the purpose of hearing
\nseeing and sharing the whole <\/p>\n

433
\n00:25:58,300 –> 00:26:02,500
\npurpose of that exercise is that
\nwe might enjoy Fellowship not <\/p>\n

434
\n00:26:02,500 –> 00:26:04,800
\njust with each other.
\nThat’s the starting point we <\/p>\n

435
\n00:26:04,808 –> 00:26:09,300
\nstart with what we can see feel
\nand handle but the real purpose <\/p>\n

436
\n00:26:09,300 –> 00:26:13,900
\nof this Fellowship is to be with
\nthe father and the son that’s <\/p>\n

437
\n00:26:13,900 –> 00:26:17,700
\nthe whole point of this exercise
\nthe first use of this word is <\/p>\n

438
\n00:26:17,700 –> 00:26:21,500
\nActs chapter 2 it is worth
\nlooking at so we will Acts <\/p>\n

439
\n00:26:21,500 –> 00:26:29,800
\nchapter 2 and verse 42 and they
\ncontinued steadfastly in the <\/p>\n

440
\n00:26:29,800 –> 00:26:32,900
\napostles Doctrine and fellowship
\nand in the breaking of bread and<\/p>\n

441
\n00:26:32,900 –> 00:26:38,400
\nin prayers, so we come full
\ncircle our role as we stated in <\/p>\n

442
\n00:26:38,400 –> 00:26:41,500
\nthe Ecclesia as to make sure the
\ntruth stays alive and we are <\/p>\n

443
\n00:26:41,500 –> 00:26:44,800
\nattached to the apostles
\ndoctrine that they heard that <\/p>\n

444
\n00:26:44,800 –> 00:26:49,500
\nthey saw and they shared and
\nthat same thing now must live in<\/p>\n

445
\n00:26:49,500 –> 00:26:51,800
\nour community.
\nBy the way, we treat each other.<\/p>\n

446
\n00:26:52,000 –> 00:26:56,900
\nIt’s a two-part peace knowing
\nthe truth is only useful if it <\/p>\n

447
\n00:26:56,900 –> 00:26:58,400
\nleads us.
\nLive the truth. <\/p>\n

448
\n00:26:59,000 –> 00:27:03,300
\nThat is what Fellowship is.
\nSo logical question. <\/p>\n

449
\n00:27:03,700 –> 00:27:06,600
\nHow can we live the truth?
\nHow can we make sure the truth <\/p>\n

450
\n00:27:06,600 –> 00:27:09,200
\nis alive in our lives and in our
\nEcclesia? <\/p>\n

451
\n00:27:09,300 –> 00:27:13,900
\nWhat can we do to make sure that
\nwho I am represents in some <\/p>\n

452
\n00:27:13,900 –> 00:27:18,400
\nsmallest measure the journey my
\nGod is taking me on by learning <\/p>\n

453
\n00:27:18,400 –> 00:27:25,200
\nhis word and changing my life.
\nI’m going to wear a bug zapper <\/p>\n

454
\n00:27:25,200 –> 00:27:27,300
\nas a necklace.
\nTomorrow’s in case anybody’s <\/p>\n

455
\n00:27:27,300 –> 00:27:34,700
\nwondering kesari first for these
\nthings write we unto you that <\/p>\n

456
\n00:27:34,700 –> 00:27:38,300
\nyour joy may be full the word
\nyou’re in. <\/p>\n

457
\n00:27:38,300 –> 00:27:42,900
\nThe RSV is actually says our
\nthat our joy may be full. <\/p>\n

458
\n00:27:43,200 –> 00:27:47,300
\nIt’s not for any other reason
\nthat we read and study but to <\/p>\n

459
\n00:27:47,300 –> 00:27:51,500
\nenjoy fellowship with each other
\nand with the father to the <\/p>\n

460
\n00:27:51,500 –> 00:27:57,800
\nfullest extent possible.
\nSo this then is the message <\/p>\n

461
\n00:27:57,800 –> 00:28:00,700
\nwhich we have heard of him and
\ndeclare unto you that God is <\/p>\n

462
\n00:28:00,700 –> 00:28:03,500
\nlight and in him is no Darkness
\nat all. <\/p>\n

463
\n00:28:03,500 –> 00:28:06,800
\nSo he starts with a nice warm up
\nand now we’re going to get to <\/p>\n

464
\n00:28:06,800 –> 00:28:10,400
\nsome me.
\nSo the message is a word that’s <\/p>\n

465
\n00:28:10,400 –> 00:28:13,100
\nused 53 53 times in the New
\nTestament. <\/p>\n

466
\n00:28:13,100 –> 00:28:17,700
\nIt’s not a rare word.
\nAll the others are translated <\/p>\n

467
\n00:28:17,700 –> 00:28:20,700
\npromise.
\nFor example, eight of them are <\/p>\n

468
\n00:28:20,700 –> 00:28:25,500
\nin Galatians 3 talking about the
\npromises to Abraham a foundation<\/p>\n

469
\n00:28:25,500 –> 00:28:28,700
\nof the new A minute.
\nIt’s a great tied to John <\/p>\n

470
\n00:28:28,700 –> 00:28:32,100
\nchapter 1 again verse 4 in him
\nwas life. <\/p>\n

471
\n00:28:32,300 –> 00:28:34,600
\nAnd the life was the light of
\nmen. <\/p>\n

472
\n00:28:35,600 –> 00:28:40,900
\nSo God is light but light in and
\nof itself is not enough. <\/p>\n

473
\n00:28:41,200 –> 00:28:46,000
\nWe must be able to use it
\nblindness for example is not <\/p>\n

474
\n00:28:46,000 –> 00:28:48,400
\nbeing able to see through the
\nlight. <\/p>\n

475
\n00:28:49,000 –> 00:28:52,800
\nWe have to properly Focus the
\nlight through our eye to our <\/p>\n

476
\n00:28:52,800 –> 00:28:55,800
\nbrain for that light to have any
\nvalue to me. <\/p>\n

477
\n00:28:56,900 –> 00:29:00,200
\nThis is a great tie to Genesis
\nchapter 1 Let’s Have Some Fun. <\/p>\n

478
\n00:29:02,400 –> 00:29:06,000
\nIn Genesis chapter one in the
\nbeginning God created the Heaven<\/p>\n

479
\n00:29:06,000 –> 00:29:08,700
\nand the Earth great.
\nWe know that verse verse 3 God <\/p>\n

480
\n00:29:08,700 –> 00:29:11,100
\nsaid let there be light and
\nthere was light know that verse <\/p>\n

481
\n00:29:11,800 –> 00:29:14,100
\nverse 16.
\nGod made two great lights a <\/p>\n

482
\n00:29:14,100 –> 00:29:16,700
\nlesser light to Rule the Day a
\ngreater light to Rule the Day <\/p>\n

483
\n00:29:16,900 –> 00:29:18,600
\nand the Lesser light to rule the
\nnight. <\/p>\n

484
\n00:29:18,700 –> 00:29:20,600
\nSo we know this story we’ve
\ntalked about it. <\/p>\n

485
\n00:29:20,600 –> 00:29:24,200
\nThis is not new material, but I
\nwant us to focus in on this in <\/p>\n

486
\n00:29:24,200 –> 00:29:27,700
\nthe Hebrew the words change when
\nwe get to day 4 and I’m happy to<\/p>\n

487
\n00:29:27,708 –> 00:29:29,800
\nhave this conversation
\nseparately if you want to do it <\/p>\n

488
\n00:29:29,800 –> 00:29:30,900
\nlater.
\nI’m not going to take too much <\/p>\n

489
\n00:29:30,900 –> 00:29:35,700
\ntime in this class.
\nBut in day for we have the <\/p>\n

490
\n00:29:35,700 –> 00:29:40,700
\nsource of the light is visible,
\nbut the sun was not created on <\/p>\n

491
\n00:29:40,700 –> 00:29:43,400
\nday four.
\nThe Hebrew word is not create <\/p>\n

492
\n00:29:43,400 –> 00:29:48,200
\nthe word is appointed.
\nAnd so the light of day one was <\/p>\n

493
\n00:29:48,200 –> 00:29:52,900
\nstill the Sun but it could not
\nbe seen it was not visible until<\/p>\n

494
\n00:29:52,900 –> 00:29:55,000
\nthe fourth day.
\nSo hold that thought for a <\/p>\n

495
\n00:29:55,000 –> 00:29:57,000
\nminute.
\nWe’re going to focus on the <\/p>\n

496
\n00:29:57,000 –> 00:29:59,900
\nbrightest and most focal point
\nin our universe. <\/p>\n

497
\n00:30:00,400 –> 00:30:04,300
\nIt’s a constant without the And
\nwarmth of the sun there would be<\/p>\n

498
\n00:30:04,300 –> 00:30:08,600
\nno life, but notice it includes
\nsomething of this lesser light <\/p>\n

499
\n00:30:08,600 –> 00:30:12,100
\nto rule the world in darkness
\nthe Moon. <\/p>\n

500
\n00:30:13,000 –> 00:30:17,400
\nWhat do we know about the Moon?
\nIt has no light of its own <\/p>\n

501
\n00:30:17,400 –> 00:30:20,200
\nessentially.
\nIt is a giant reflector in the <\/p>\n

502
\n00:30:20,200 –> 00:30:22,500
\nsky.
\nSo when Jesus says if you’ve <\/p>\n

503
\n00:30:22,500 –> 00:30:25,800
\nseen me you’ve seen the father
\nit’s he was a reflection of the <\/p>\n

504
\n00:30:25,800 –> 00:30:29,500
\nglory of God.
\nWe want to be the bride that <\/p>\n

505
\n00:30:29,508 –> 00:30:33,300
\nseeks fellowship with those two
\ngreats like two great lights as <\/p>\n

506
\n00:30:33,300 –> 00:30:35,200
\na bride preparing to be one with
\nJesus. <\/p>\n

507
\n00:30:35,200 –> 00:30:39,600
\nWe need to reflect that same
\nglory of the father so that <\/p>\n

508
\n00:30:39,600 –> 00:30:42,700
\npeople can see in Us in some
\nmeasure that same Glory that was<\/p>\n

509
\n00:30:42,700 –> 00:30:47,100
\nseen in Him, but what gets in
\nthe way of you and I being a <\/p>\n

510
\n00:30:47,100 –> 00:30:49,400
\nperfect reflector of the glory
\nof God. <\/p>\n

511
\n00:30:52,700 –> 00:30:58,200
\nThe world the Earth is what gets
\nin the way now our lives are <\/p>\n

512
\n00:30:58,200 –> 00:31:00,800
\ndifferent and we said all of us
\nis going through something and I<\/p>\n

513
\n00:31:00,808 –> 00:31:02,300
\ndon’t know what you’re going
\nthrough. <\/p>\n

514
\n00:31:02,500 –> 00:31:05,500
\nI don’t know if right now you’re
\na full moon and the reflection <\/p>\n

515
\n00:31:05,500 –> 00:31:09,000
\nof God’s glory is shining bright
\nin your life or if you’re that <\/p>\n

516
\n00:31:09,000 –> 00:31:12,200
\nlittle thumbnail moon on by
\nbehind me where there is a <\/p>\n

517
\n00:31:12,200 –> 00:31:15,300
\nlittle bit there, but it’s hard
\nto see if you don’t know me very<\/p>\n

518
\n00:31:15,300 –> 00:31:17,200
\nwell.
\nWe all go through different <\/p>\n

519
\n00:31:17,200 –> 00:31:20,300
\npoints in our life where
\nsometimes we’re on a spiritual <\/p>\n

520
\n00:31:20,300 –> 00:31:22,300
\nhigh and it feels like
\neverything. <\/p>\n

521
\n00:31:22,500 –> 00:31:25,900
\nThing we read excites us every
\ntime we were with our brothers <\/p>\n

522
\n00:31:25,900 –> 00:31:29,400
\nand sisters, we’re happy and
\nthen there’s other times when <\/p>\n

523
\n00:31:29,400 –> 00:31:33,300
\nit’s a struggle to go to meeting
\nwhen the readings feel like a <\/p>\n

524
\n00:31:33,300 –> 00:31:36,200
\nburden but it’s something we
\nhave to do not something we look<\/p>\n

525
\n00:31:36,200 –> 00:31:39,800
\nforward and want to do and maybe
\ndoesn’t happen to anybody else. <\/p>\n

526
\n00:31:39,800 –> 00:31:44,100
\nBut I know that’s happened to me
\nand the common denominator every<\/p>\n

527
\n00:31:44,100 –> 00:31:47,000
\ntime I felt my life was starting
\nto get darker. <\/p>\n

528
\n00:31:47,300 –> 00:31:50,700
\nIt’s because the world had taken
\nmore than its fair share of my <\/p>\n

529
\n00:31:50,700 –> 00:31:53,900
\nvision.
\nIt was an opportunity to look to<\/p>\n

530
\n00:31:54,200 –> 00:31:57,200
\nnot be able to see through to
\nthe glory of the father because <\/p>\n

531
\n00:31:57,200 –> 00:32:01,100
\nI was a partial moon or maybe
\neven it sometimes a full <\/p>\n

532
\n00:32:01,100 –> 00:32:04,300
\neclipse.
\nSo we get that reference we want<\/p>\n

533
\n00:32:04,300 –> 00:32:07,400
\nto make sure we understand
\nthat’s what made Jesus a perfect<\/p>\n

534
\n00:32:07,400 –> 00:32:11,100
\nreflection of his father.
\nThe world did not get in his way<\/p>\n

535
\n00:32:11,100 –> 00:32:14,700
\nlike it does for us did he know
\nit was there absolutely was <\/p>\n

536
\n00:32:14,700 –> 00:32:18,100
\ntempted in all points like as we
\nare but he was able to maintain <\/p>\n

537
\n00:32:18,100 –> 00:32:22,900
\nfocus on preserving the light of
\nthe Father the exhortation to <\/p>\n

538
\n00:32:22,900 –> 00:32:26,800
\nall of us that we continue to
\npreserve that light. <\/p>\n

539
\n00:32:28,400 –> 00:32:32,900
\nSecond Corinthians 4 verse 6
\nsays for God who commanded the <\/p>\n

540
\n00:32:32,900 –> 00:32:36,300
\nlight to shine out of Darkness
\nhath shined in our hearts to <\/p>\n

541
\n00:32:36,300 –> 00:32:40,500
\ngive the light of knowledge of
\nthe glory of God in the face of <\/p>\n

542
\n00:32:40,500 –> 00:32:43,700
\nJesus Christ.
\nThere’s another crate section of<\/p>\n

543
\n00:32:43,700 –> 00:32:46,800
\nverses in Chapter 2.
\nSo hold the thought we’ll talk <\/p>\n

544
\n00:32:46,800 –> 00:32:54,900
\nabout that one more tomorrow.
\nFirst six if we say we have <\/p>\n

545
\n00:32:54,900 –> 00:32:57,200
\nfellowship with him and walk in
\ndarkness. <\/p>\n

546
\n00:32:57,200 –> 00:33:01,200
\nWe lie and do not the truth the
\nRSV ends at this way. <\/p>\n

547
\n00:33:01,200 –> 00:33:04,300
\nWe lie and do not live according
\nto the truth. <\/p>\n

548
\n00:33:05,100 –> 00:33:09,500
\nIf the truth is not manifest in
\nhow we behave towards each other<\/p>\n

549
\n00:33:09,900 –> 00:33:15,300
\nwe effectively are lying about
\nwho we are darkness is according<\/p>\n

550
\n00:33:15,300 –> 00:33:17,000
\nto the Flesh and the world
\naround us. <\/p>\n

551
\n00:33:17,400 –> 00:33:20,600
\nWe know the world has an impact
\nminimizing that impact. <\/p>\n

552
\n00:33:20,600 –> 00:33:25,200
\nThank you minimizing that Impact
\nis what’s important and how we <\/p>\n

553
\n00:33:25,200 –> 00:33:29,300
\ndo that is held by us working
\ntogether when I might be <\/p>\n

554
\n00:33:29,300 –> 00:33:32,100
\nstruggling it’s good.
\nIf one of you is not and you can<\/p>\n

555
\n00:33:32,100 –> 00:33:35,300
\nhelp pick me up because you
\nnever know that Cycles coming <\/p>\n

556
\n00:33:35,300 –> 00:33:38,300
\nback and you might need that
\npick up when you’re struggling <\/p>\n

557
\n00:33:38,700 –> 00:33:42,000
\nand I might be the one that can
\nhelp lift you if we don’t have <\/p>\n

558
\n00:33:42,000 –> 00:33:46,300
\nthat attitude our life is an
\neclipse and our fellowship is <\/p>\n

559
\n00:33:46,300 –> 00:33:48,500
\nuseless.
\nAnd therefore our Doctrine is <\/p>\n

560
\n00:33:48,500 –> 00:33:51,100
\nvoided.
\nSo it’s critical that Doctrine <\/p>\n

561
\n00:33:51,100 –> 00:33:53,800
\nbe the basis for fellow.
\nOh Ship but for it to be <\/p>\n

562
\n00:33:53,800 –> 00:33:58,600
\nmeaningful to our God we must
\nlive according to that doctrine <\/p>\n

563
\n00:33:58,600 –> 00:34:02,600
\nof Truth this is not a new
\ntestament concept this is <\/p>\n

564
\n00:34:02,600 –> 00:34:04,900
\nactually a very old testament
\nconcept, hold on I know what’s <\/p>\n

565
\n00:34:04,900 –> 00:34:10,900
\ngoing to happen This is actually
\na very old testament concept. <\/p>\n

566
\n00:34:10,900 –> 00:34:13,400
\nLet’s turn to Leviticus chapter
\n19. <\/p>\n

567
\n00:34:17,500 –> 00:34:24,900
\nLeviticus chapter 19 and verse 2
\nspeed under the congregation of <\/p>\n

568
\n00:34:24,900 –> 00:34:27,000
\nthe children of Israel and say
\nunto them. <\/p>\n

569
\n00:34:27,500 –> 00:34:30,800
\nYou shall be holy for I the Lord
\nyour God am Holy. <\/p>\n

570
\n00:34:32,699 –> 00:34:33,900
\nThank you.
\nI’m good. <\/p>\n

571
\n00:34:34,199 –> 00:34:38,199
\nThank you very much.
\nThis is an exhortation to <\/p>\n

572
\n00:34:38,199 –> 00:34:40,600
\nreflect the father.
\nIn fact, it’s repeated again in <\/p>\n

573
\n00:34:40,600 –> 00:34:43,600
\nLeviticus 20 verse 7 and 20
\nverse 26. <\/p>\n

574
\n00:34:43,600 –> 00:34:46,800
\nThat’s the Hebrew exclamation
\npoint say it a bunch of times. <\/p>\n

575
\n00:34:46,800 –> 00:34:50,000
\nThat means it’s important.
\nThe gospel says it in this way <\/p>\n

576
\n00:34:50,000 –> 00:34:53,199
\nin John chapter 3 will pick up
\nat verse 19. <\/p>\n

577
\n00:34:53,699 –> 00:34:57,500
\nThis is the condemnation that
\nlight is come into the world and<\/p>\n

578
\n00:34:57,500 –> 00:35:01,000
\nMen loved Darkness rather than
\nlight because their deeds were <\/p>\n

579
\n00:35:01,000 –> 00:35:04,400
\nevil everyone that doeth evil
\nhateth the light neither cometh <\/p>\n

580
\n00:35:04,400 –> 00:35:06,200
\nto the light lest.
\nHis deeds should be reproved. <\/p>\n

581
\n00:35:06,400 –> 00:35:10,200
\nProved but he that doeth truth
\ncometh to the light that his <\/p>\n

582
\n00:35:10,200 –> 00:35:13,400
\ndeeds may be made manifest that
\nthey are wrought in God. <\/p>\n

583
\n00:35:14,100 –> 00:35:18,400
\nSo we have a choice to make the
\nexhortation is to choose light <\/p>\n

584
\n00:35:18,500 –> 00:35:21,900
\nto choose the light of Truth in
\nreflecting the glory of the <\/p>\n

585
\n00:35:21,900 –> 00:35:26,200
\nfather as opposed to the
\ndarkness of the world our nature<\/p>\n

586
\n00:35:26,300 –> 00:35:30,200
\ndefaults to Darkness.
\nWe will not accidentally glorify<\/p>\n

587
\n00:35:30,200 –> 00:35:32,600
\nthe father just because that’s
\nhow good we are. <\/p>\n

588
\n00:35:33,100 –> 00:35:37,800
\nWe will default to the world
\naround us it Must be intentional<\/p>\n

589
\n00:35:38,200 –> 00:35:41,000
\nand that’s why it’s such a focal
\npoint here in the in the <\/p>\n

590
\n00:35:41,000 –> 00:35:45,400
\nepistle.
\nVerse 7 is the crowning <\/p>\n

591
\n00:35:45,400 –> 00:35:50,400
\nstatement if we walk in light as
\nhe is the light we have <\/p>\n

592
\n00:35:50,400 –> 00:35:55,000
\nFellowship one with another and
\nthe blood of Jesus Christ. <\/p>\n

593
\n00:35:55,300 –> 00:35:57,500
\nHis son cleanses us from all
\nsin. <\/p>\n

594
\n00:35:58,700 –> 00:36:03,800
\nThat’s the if we get the choice,
\nbut if we choose right we not <\/p>\n

595
\n00:36:03,800 –> 00:36:07,600
\nonly enjoy Fellowship together,
\nbut we are covered by the blood <\/p>\n

596
\n00:36:07,600 –> 00:36:11,600
\nof the Lamb the conditions of
\nthis cleaning or the next couple<\/p>\n

597
\n00:36:11,600 –> 00:36:15,200
\nverses.
\nIf we say we have no sin, we <\/p>\n

598
\n00:36:15,200 –> 00:36:17,600
\ndeceive ourselves and the truth
\nis not in US. <\/p>\n

599
\n00:36:18,600 –> 00:36:24,300
\nIt is amazing how much we think
\npeople will buy it if you <\/p>\n

600
\n00:36:24,300 –> 00:36:26,800
\nsometimes catch yourself doing
\nthis it’s so easy to catch in <\/p>\n

601
\n00:36:26,800 –> 00:36:29,600
\nother people so I know you’re
\ngoing to get the comment but we <\/p>\n

602
\n00:36:29,600 –> 00:36:33,100
\ndo this all the time.
\nWe tell somebody a story we <\/p>\n

603
\n00:36:33,100 –> 00:36:37,200
\nthink they’ll believe and what
\nyou think I’ll believe is <\/p>\n

604
\n00:36:37,200 –> 00:36:40,600
\nsometimes comical and what I
\nthink you might believe is <\/p>\n

605
\n00:36:40,600 –> 00:36:44,100
\nsometimes comical you I think it
\nwas JPMorgan that said there’s <\/p>\n

606
\n00:36:44,100 –> 00:36:45,900
\ntwo reasons a person would do or
\nnot. <\/p>\n

607
\n00:36:45,900 –> 00:36:49,600
\nDo a thing the real one can On
\nthe think sounds good. <\/p>\n

608
\n00:36:50,700 –> 00:36:53,900
\nAnd we spin it away.
\nWe think might sound good like, <\/p>\n

609
\n00:36:54,000 –> 00:36:57,100
\nyou know, the veneer of my life
\nlooks pretty good. <\/p>\n

610
\n00:36:57,100 –> 00:36:59,200
\nI it’s not like you’re miserable
\nsinful life. <\/p>\n

611
\n00:37:00,300 –> 00:37:03,300
\nI know better, you know better.
\nI’m still trying to sell you <\/p>\n

612
\n00:37:03,300 –> 00:37:07,200
\nthat my life’s.
\nOkay, if we think we have no <\/p>\n

613
\n00:37:07,200 –> 00:37:10,400
\nsin, we deceive ourselves.
\nWe’re not really fooling anyone <\/p>\n

614
\n00:37:10,400 –> 00:37:15,600
\nelse because sin is nothing more
\nthan to miss the mark when we <\/p>\n

615
\n00:37:15,600 –> 00:37:19,700
\nmiss that Mark of perfection a
\nperfect reflection of the father<\/p>\n

616
\n00:37:20,300 –> 00:37:25,200
\nwe have sinned.
\nWe all know Romans 6 Romans 3 <\/p>\n

617
\n00:37:25,200 –> 00:37:28,400
\nputs it this way Romans 3:23 for
\nall have sinned and come short <\/p>\n

618
\n00:37:28,400 –> 00:37:31,700
\nof the glory of God.
\nWe even know the verse but yet <\/p>\n

619
\n00:37:31,700 –> 00:37:35,600
\nwe put on that show like we’re
\ndoing it just right to fool <\/p>\n

620
\n00:37:35,600 –> 00:37:38,600
\nourselves fools.
\nNo one else. <\/p>\n

621
\n00:37:39,200 –> 00:37:46,400
\nWhoops verse 9 if we confess our
\nsins and here is the next if see<\/p>\n

622
\n00:37:46,400 –> 00:37:49,100
\nthere’s a choice instead of
\nhiding them in pretending <\/p>\n

623
\n00:37:49,100 –> 00:37:51,200
\nthey’re not there and putting on
\nthe best display. <\/p>\n

624
\n00:37:51,200 –> 00:37:57,100
\nI can if we confess them.
\nHe is faithful and just to <\/p>\n

625
\n00:37:57,100 –> 00:38:00,000
\nforgive our sins and cleanse us
\nfrom all unrighteousness. <\/p>\n

626
\n00:38:00,800 –> 00:38:04,100
\nOur God knows our sins.
\nHe knows we’re not righteous. <\/p>\n

627
\n00:38:04,100 –> 00:38:07,900
\nHe knows we are a terrible
\nreflection of his glory and yet <\/p>\n

628
\n00:38:07,900 –> 00:38:11,300
\nhe loves us.
\nAnyways now he expects us to try<\/p>\n

629
\n00:38:11,300 –> 00:38:14,400
\nto improve That reflection it’s
\nnot unconditional. <\/p>\n

630
\n00:38:15,500 –> 00:38:19,500
\nBut our God loves us and wants
\nus to reflect him. <\/p>\n

631
\n00:38:19,800 –> 00:38:23,400
\nHe is faithful and just and
\nthat’s one of the most beautiful<\/p>\n

632
\n00:38:23,400 –> 00:38:27,200
\ncharacteristics of our father
\none thing that we as human <\/p>\n

633
\n00:38:27,200 –> 00:38:30,200
\nbeings do not do very well this
\nside of the Kingdom. <\/p>\n

634
\n00:38:30,800 –> 00:38:38,300
\nIt’s that balance between mercy
\nand judgment between Justice and<\/p>\n

635
\n00:38:38,300 –> 00:38:41,600
\nlove because we tend to lean one
\nway or the other some of us are <\/p>\n

636
\n00:38:41,600 –> 00:38:44,800
\nmore loving and we sacrifice
\nJudgment at times when we <\/p>\n

637
\n00:38:44,800 –> 00:38:48,800
\nshouldn’t In others of us are
\nmore judgmental and we sacrifice<\/p>\n

638
\n00:38:48,800 –> 00:38:52,800
\nthe opportunities for loves love
\nwhen we shouldn’t again a good <\/p>\n

639
\n00:38:52,800 –> 00:38:55,800
\nreason that our God has called
\nus together as a community <\/p>\n

640
\n00:38:55,900 –> 00:38:57,500
\nbecause we’re all out of
\nbalance. <\/p>\n

641
\n00:38:57,900 –> 00:39:00,200
\nBut if you’re out of balance
\nthis way and I’m out of balance <\/p>\n

642
\n00:39:00,200 –> 00:39:02,700
\nthis way.
\nGuess what we’re balancing each <\/p>\n

643
\n00:39:02,700 –> 00:39:05,100
\nother.
\nThat’s what the Ecclesia is <\/p>\n

644
\n00:39:05,100 –> 00:39:09,900
\ndesigned for to cleanse us from
\nour unrighteousness by working <\/p>\n

645
\n00:39:09,900 –> 00:39:13,500
\ntogether through it improving
\nour reflection of the glory of <\/p>\n

646
\n00:39:13,500 –> 00:39:17,700
\nGod.
\nThe Judgment of God is always <\/p>\n

647
\n00:39:17,700 –> 00:39:20,500
\nrighteous.
\nWe have confidence that it will <\/p>\n

648
\n00:39:20,500 –> 00:39:24,300
\nalways be righteous.
\nWe know it is the god that <\/p>\n

649
\n00:39:24,300 –> 00:39:28,500
\nexists not the God we want it’s
\nup to us to conform to what our <\/p>\n

650
\n00:39:28,500 –> 00:39:32,100
\nGod requires not to get him to
\nconform. <\/p>\n

651
\n00:39:32,100 –> 00:39:35,400
\nWhat we think is right.
\nWe’ve got to make sure we put <\/p>\n

652
\n00:39:35,400 –> 00:39:40,100
\nGod in his right place and then
\nsubmit to him hardest thing for <\/p>\n

653
\n00:39:40,100 –> 00:39:44,100
\nall of us including Jesus to do
\nthe last thing he had to conquer<\/p>\n

654
\n00:39:44,400 –> 00:39:48,300
\nwas Total submission to the will
\nof his father that we struggle <\/p>\n

655
\n00:39:48,300 –> 00:39:52,400
\nwith that should not be a
\nsurprise but our prayers like <\/p>\n

656
\n00:39:52,400 –> 00:39:56,900
\nJesus must be open and specific
\nto our god in public. <\/p>\n

657
\n00:39:56,900 –> 00:40:00,100
\nThey’re a little generic has to
\nbe but to our god. <\/p>\n

658
\n00:40:00,200 –> 00:40:03,100
\nIt’s not the generic forgive me
\nfor my sins. <\/p>\n

659
\n00:40:03,200 –> 00:40:07,900
\nIt’s the opportunity to be open
\nand specific to our god to let <\/p>\n

660
\n00:40:07,900 –> 00:40:11,100
\nhim know that we know that we
\nneed his help. <\/p>\n

661
\n00:40:11,100 –> 00:40:13,800
\nOh, he knows we need we need we
\nneed his help. <\/p>\n

662
\n00:40:14,700 –> 00:40:17,500
\nBut we need to let him know that
\nwe need his help. <\/p>\n

663
\n00:40:18,200 –> 00:40:23,700
\nOur natural tendency is to fool
\neach other and I believe even <\/p>\n

664
\n00:40:23,700 –> 00:40:28,200
\ntry to fool Our God in prayer
\nand as delusional as that sound <\/p>\n

665
\n00:40:28,200 –> 00:40:30,600
\nif you’re honest with yourself,
\nyou might be going might be a <\/p>\n

666
\n00:40:30,600 –> 00:40:32,600
\nlittle guilt.
\nThat’s the little hand on the <\/p>\n

667
\n00:40:32,600 –> 00:40:34,600
\ninside.
\nNot the Hallelujah moment. <\/p>\n

668
\n00:40:36,800 –> 00:40:40,300
\nGrow cop put it this way.
\nI love this verse in be <\/p>\n

669
\n00:40:40,300 –> 00:40:42,900
\ntransformed.
\nI think it’s volume 1 that the <\/p>\n

670
\n00:40:42,900 –> 00:40:45,300
\nEcclesia is a hospital for
\nSinners. <\/p>\n

671
\n00:40:45,500 –> 00:40:49,800
\nNot a museum for Saints.
\nIt’s an opportunity for us to <\/p>\n

672
\n00:40:49,800 –> 00:40:51,900
\nlook at each other.
\nAnd I don’t recommend we change <\/p>\n

673
\n00:40:51,900 –> 00:40:54,600
\nour normal greeting to high
\nCenter good to see you. <\/p>\n

674
\n00:40:54,700 –> 00:40:58,700
\nI’m not suggesting we do that
\nbut I recognize you’re going to <\/p>\n

675
\n00:40:58,700 –> 00:41:01,400
\nbe struggling with something and
\nyou know, I’m struggling with <\/p>\n

676
\n00:41:01,400 –> 00:41:05,300
\nsomething to I don’t have to
\ncall it out as much as we can <\/p>\n

677
\n00:41:05,300 –> 00:41:09,100
\nknow and if we know that we’re
\nstruggling together, it lightens<\/p>\n

678
\n00:41:09,100 –> 00:41:12,200
\nthe burden of both of us and
\nwe’ll see that as a theme. <\/p>\n

679
\n00:41:12,200 –> 00:41:17,300
\nIs this begins to grow?
\nThere is no forgiveness without <\/p>\n

680
\n00:41:17,300 –> 00:41:21,500
\nhonesty honesty starts the
\nForgiveness process. <\/p>\n

681
\n00:41:21,800 –> 00:41:25,500
\nHow much do I allow to the world
\nto interfere with my reflection <\/p>\n

682
\n00:41:25,500 –> 00:41:30,200
\nof the glory of God the answer?
\nThat’s different for all of us <\/p>\n

683
\n00:41:31,100 –> 00:41:34,200
\nhonest reflection of where we
\nare before. <\/p>\n

684
\n00:41:34,200 –> 00:41:39,900
\nOur father is critical for us to
\nforgive and we see this even in <\/p>\n

685
\n00:41:39,900 –> 00:41:44,300
\nour own relationships when a
\nrelationship has a difficult <\/p>\n

686
\n00:41:44,300 –> 00:41:47,600
\ntime and I don’t care if it’s a
\nfriendship parent to child child<\/p>\n

687
\n00:41:47,600 –> 00:41:51,200
\nto parent husband to wife
\nbrother to sister every <\/p>\n

688
\n00:41:51,200 –> 00:41:54,400
\nrelationship when it hits a
\ndifficult spot has the <\/p>\n

689
\n00:41:54,400 –> 00:41:57,700
\nopportunity to be forever
\nsevered or to be repaired. <\/p>\n

690
\n00:41:59,100 –> 00:42:03,000
\nThe time it takes to repair
\nusually determines on how much <\/p>\n

691
\n00:42:03,000 –> 00:42:06,800
\nbetter the relationship is if we
\nhave failed each other and we <\/p>\n

692
\n00:42:06,800 –> 00:42:09,900
\nreconcile quickly and start
\nbuilding oftentimes that <\/p>\n

693
\n00:42:09,900 –> 00:42:13,800
\nrelationship gets stronger and
\nwhen we delay that by years or <\/p>\n

694
\n00:42:13,800 –> 00:42:17,200
\ndecades, it doesn’t mean it
\ncannot be repaired, but it’s <\/p>\n

695
\n00:42:17,200 –> 00:42:21,400
\nharder and it’s harder to make
\nthat relationship anything like <\/p>\n

696
\n00:42:21,400 –> 00:42:25,200
\nit was before but the quicker we
\nare honest with ourselves and <\/p>\n

697
\n00:42:25,200 –> 00:42:28,000
\nwith each other and more
\nimportantly with our God the <\/p>\n

698
\n00:42:28,000 –> 00:42:32,500
\nquicker we move.
\nSome honesty to forgiveness and <\/p>\n

699
\n00:42:32,500 –> 00:42:34,700
\nwe have that chance to see it
\namongst ourselves. <\/p>\n

700
\n00:42:34,700 –> 00:42:37,300
\nSo we know what it likes looked
\nlike on God’s end. <\/p>\n

701
\n00:42:38,500 –> 00:42:42,300
\nThe ability to forgive is there
\nit is up to us to follow the <\/p>\n

702
\n00:42:42,300 –> 00:42:44,800
\nprescription.
\nIt is not up to us to write the <\/p>\n

703
\n00:42:44,800 –> 00:42:49,400
\nprescription Our God will grant
\nthe Forgiveness. <\/p>\n

704
\n00:42:50,400 –> 00:42:53,100
\nHe can cleanse us from our
\nunrighteousness. <\/p>\n

705
\n00:42:53,700 –> 00:42:59,200
\nIt’s a matter of faith in
\npractice that matters and so as <\/p>\n

706
\n00:42:59,200 –> 00:43:04,600
\nwe come towards the end of this
\nfirst chapter we get some very <\/p>\n

707
\n00:43:04,600 –> 00:43:07,000
\ninteresting language that paints
\na great picture. <\/p>\n

708
\n00:43:08,300 –> 00:43:12,100
\nWe say we have not sinned we
\nmake him a liar and his word is <\/p>\n

709
\n00:43:12,100 –> 00:43:16,800
\nnot in us and this word liar is
\na word only use 10 times in the <\/p>\n

710
\n00:43:16,800 –> 00:43:19,700
\nNew Testament seven of them are
\nby John. <\/p>\n

711
\n00:43:19,700 –> 00:43:23,500
\nSo it’s one of the words that he
\nfocuses on and this really comes<\/p>\n

712
\n00:43:23,500 –> 00:43:28,800
\ndown to living the lie not
\nrecognizing my sin. <\/p>\n

713
\n00:43:28,800 –> 00:43:33,100
\nOh, I can point yours out but –
\nif I’m not capable of <\/p>\n

714
\n00:43:33,100 –> 00:43:38,100
\nrecognizing my sin and coming to
\nyour sin knowing I’m The Sinner <\/p>\n

715
\n00:43:38,200 –> 00:43:45,400
\nR2 I am living a lie, that’s the
\ndanger to all of us individually<\/p>\n

716
\n00:43:45,400 –> 00:43:49,600
\nand Ecclesia lie, and if we are
\nliving that lie, we’re making <\/p>\n

717
\n00:43:49,700 –> 00:43:53,800
\nour God a liar because his word
\nis not in us. <\/p>\n

718
\n00:43:54,800 –> 00:43:58,800
\nLet’s peek ahead to one verse
\nlater in this epistle because I <\/p>\n

719
\n00:43:58,808 –> 00:44:00,800
\nthink it’s appropriate to the
\ncontext. <\/p>\n

720
\n00:44:01,100 –> 00:44:04,000
\nThis is chapter 4 verse 20.
\nWe’ll just look at it for a <\/p>\n

721
\n00:44:04,000 –> 00:44:05,200
\nmoment.
\nWe’ll get there in a couple <\/p>\n

722
\n00:44:05,200 –> 00:44:10,200
\ndays.
\nBut if a man say I love God and <\/p>\n

723
\n00:44:10,200 –> 00:44:11,900
\nhateth his brother.
\nHe is a liar. <\/p>\n

724
\n00:44:11,900 –> 00:44:16,000
\nHe puts it pretty clear for he
\nthat loveth not his brother whom<\/p>\n

725
\n00:44:16,000 –> 00:44:20,200
\nhe has seen, how can he love God
\nwhom he has not seen. <\/p>\n

726
\n00:44:21,300 –> 00:44:24,100
\nWe’ll go into it in more detail
\nin a couple days. <\/p>\n

727
\n00:44:24,800 –> 00:44:28,700
\nBut I want to emphasize the
\ndemonstration of our love in how<\/p>\n

728
\n00:44:28,700 –> 00:44:32,800
\nwe treat each other is Paramount
\nand living the truth human <\/p>\n

729
\n00:44:32,800 –> 00:44:36,400
\nbeings as we are it’s often more
\ndifficult when we disagree or <\/p>\n

730
\n00:44:36,400 –> 00:44:40,400
\ndon’t understand one another but
\nit is pivotal to preserving the <\/p>\n

731
\n00:44:40,408 –> 00:44:44,800
\ntruth in the last day the love
\nmust be present. <\/p>\n

732
\n00:44:45,500 –> 00:44:48,100
\nBut there’s more the world is
\nwatching us. <\/p>\n

733
\n00:44:48,100 –> 00:44:51,700
\nGod is awesome.
\nBut can’t his people sometimes <\/p>\n

734
\n00:44:51,700 –> 00:44:56,100
\nbe pretty miserable.
\nWe all can how many people have <\/p>\n

735
\n00:44:56,100 –> 00:44:59,700
\nbeen killed in the name of God
\nfor the last few thousand years.<\/p>\n

736
\n00:45:00,300 –> 00:45:01,700
\nThey weren’t doing the work of
\nGod. <\/p>\n

737
\n00:45:01,700 –> 00:45:04,600
\nThey thought they were but the
\nlove was absent. <\/p>\n

738
\n00:45:05,800 –> 00:45:11,300
\nWe cannot live the truth and
\nmake we have to live the truth <\/p>\n

739
\n00:45:11,300 –> 00:45:14,700
\nor we make our God a liar to the
\nworld around us. <\/p>\n

740
\n00:45:15,400 –> 00:45:19,900
\nIt requires honest reflection.
\nLoving Fellowship based on sound<\/p>\n

741
\n00:45:19,900 –> 00:45:22,800
\nDoctrine letting the word live
\nin our walk. <\/p>\n

742
\n00:45:22,900 –> 00:45:25,900
\nWe’ll only will not only show
\nGod’s glory to Those whom we <\/p>\n

743
\n00:45:25,900 –> 00:45:30,600
\nmeet but it’ll also declare the
\ntruthfulness of the father and <\/p>\n

744
\n00:45:30,600 –> 00:45:33,500
\nwhat a wonderful and awesome
\nresponsibility. <\/p>\n

745
\n00:45:33,500 –> 00:45:37,800
\nThat is But you and I are given
\nthe privilege and <\/p>\n

746
\n00:45:37,800 –> 00:45:42,600
\nresponsibility.
\nTo live the truth for the sake <\/p>\n

747
\n00:45:43,000 –> 00:45:48,300
\nof the honesty of the heavenly
\nfather but alas, there’s no sign<\/p>\n

748
\n00:45:48,300 –> 00:45:51,000
\nover us that declares.
\nThis one’s righteous. <\/p>\n

749
\n00:45:51,700 –> 00:45:54,300
\nThis one’s a walking
\nrepresentation of sin, but we <\/p>\n

750
\n00:45:54,300 –> 00:45:57,700
\ndon’t have that.
\nThankfully this side of the <\/p>\n

751
\n00:45:57,700 –> 00:45:59,600
\nJudgment seat.
\nWe must have seen each other <\/p>\n

752
\n00:45:59,600 –> 00:46:03,600
\ngreater than ourselves.
\nWe preserve the love of God in <\/p>\n

753
\n00:46:03,600 –> 00:46:08,200
\nour life in our attitude and we
\ndo that by how we work together.<\/p>\n

754
\n00:46:09,400 –> 00:46:14,300
\nI honestly believe that that is
\nwhy God didn’t stop it Adam. <\/p>\n

755
\n00:46:15,800 –> 00:46:20,300
\nHe made more than one so that we
\ncould learn to love the <\/p>\n

756
\n00:46:20,300 –> 00:46:25,600
\nunlovable because that’s what
\nour God does for us on a daily <\/p>\n

757
\n00:46:25,600 –> 00:46:29,800
\nbasis.
\nWhen I disappoint you and I <\/p>\n

758
\n00:46:29,800 –> 00:46:35,600
\ndeserve to lose some of your
\naffection. what now you get to <\/p>\n

759
\n00:46:35,600 –> 00:46:40,700
\nplay is the role that God shares
\nwhen you don’t deserve his and I<\/p>\n

760
\n00:46:40,700 –> 00:46:46,000
\nthink that’s why the Ecclesia is
\nin existence so that we can work<\/p>\n

761
\n00:46:46,000 –> 00:46:50,300
\nthrough these challenges
\nlearning to love the unlovable <\/p>\n

762
\n00:46:51,000 –> 00:46:56,900
\nto preserve the faith because
\nthe alternative is to make God a<\/p>\n

763
\n00:46:56,900 –> 00:47:01,900
\nliar and so with that I’ll let
\nyou think on this one for a <\/p>\n
