\nSo we need to see if there’s <\/p>\n

54
\n00:02:58,600 –> 00:03:00,100
\nWe’d love to hear from you.
\nYou. <\/p>\n

55
\n00:03:00,900 –> 00:03:03,100
\nSo now let’s get into the talk
\nfor this week. <\/p>\n

56
\n00:03:05,100 –> 00:03:08,200
\nFor our talk this week, we are
\nlooking at a class that was <\/p>\n

57
\n00:03:08,200 –> 00:03:11,300
\ngiven by Brother.
\nAndy Walton at the recordings of<\/p>\n

58
\n00:03:11,300 –> 00:03:13,800
\nwhich are all on YouTube.
\nI actually heard it through <\/p>\n

59
\n00:03:14,100 –> 00:03:17,600
\nVerdugo Hills has Bible class
\nwhere we just watch the <\/p>\n

60
\n00:03:17,600 –> 00:03:20,100
\nrecordings together.
\nSo we’re listening to the first <\/p>\n

61
\n00:03:20,100 –> 00:03:23,400
\nclass and he’s taking a look at
\nthe biblical meaning of the Fig <\/p>\n

62
\n00:03:23,400 –> 00:03:25,400
\nTree.
\nAll three classes are really, <\/p>\n

63
\n00:03:25,400 –> 00:03:27,300
\nreally interesting.
\nThis first one, we’re looking <\/p>\n

64
\n00:03:27,300 –> 00:03:30,300
\nspecifically at the fruit and
\nthere’s a lot of really <\/p>\n

65
\n00:03:30,300 –> 00:03:34,300
\ninteresting nuggets about the
\nTree. <\/p>\n

66
\n00:03:34,300 –> 00:03:37,200
\nHow they pollinate.
\nAll sorts of things that I won’t<\/p>\n

67
\n00:03:37,200 –> 00:03:39,300
\nnecessarily go into, because I
\nwant you to be able to enjoy <\/p>\n

68
\n00:03:39,300 –> 00:03:41,000
\nthem.
\nWhen you hear the class, it is a<\/p>\n

69
\n00:03:41,008 –> 00:03:44,600
\nlittle funny in the first class,
\nwhen he is recording his talk. <\/p>\n

70
\n00:03:45,400 –> 00:03:48,800
\nHe has a random Zoom issue which
\nmade it really funny when you <\/p>\n

71
\n00:03:48,800 –> 00:03:51,300
\nwere listening to it on Bible
\nclass because our Verdugo Hills <\/p>\n

72
\n00:03:51,300 –> 00:03:55,200
\ndoes our Bible class over Zoom.
\nSo it felt very much like you <\/p>\n

73
\n00:03:55,200 –> 00:03:57,700
\nwere right in there for Zoom
\nwhich was I thought was kind of <\/p>\n

74
\n00:03:57,708 –> 00:04:00,800
\nfunny.
\nSo in the show notes I will have<\/p>\n

75
\n00:04:00,800 –> 00:04:03,400
\nthe link to the playlist of all
\nthree classes and then also the <\/p>\n

76
\n00:04:03,400 –> 00:04:04,800
\naudio No version will be on the
\ngood. <\/p>\n

77
\n00:04:04,800 –> 00:04:07,100
\nCrystal fiend.
\nTalks extended podcast feed. <\/p>\n

78
\n00:04:07,200 –> 00:04:09,600
\nSo either way, I highly
\nrecommend you listen to all <\/p>\n

79
\n00:04:09,600 –> 00:04:11,000
\nthree of them to really
\ninteresting. <\/p>\n

80
\n00:04:11,700 –> 00:04:15,500
\nThere are he makes mention of
\nsome videos during the class, <\/p>\n

81
\n00:04:15,500 –> 00:04:18,200
\nbut the audio is still good
\nenough that you can get an idea <\/p>\n

82
\n00:04:18,200 –> 00:04:19,899
\nof what they’re talking about in
\nthe story. <\/p>\n

83
\n00:04:20,500 –> 00:04:23,000
\nBut if you want to go back and
\nget the visuals, you can jump <\/p>\n

84
\n00:04:23,000 –> 00:04:26,800
\nover and watch the Youtube video
\nand kind of see it as well. <\/p>\n

85
\n00:04:27,100 –> 00:04:30,000
\nThank you for listening.
\nWe hope that this class is an <\/p>\n

86
\n00:04:30,000 –> 00:04:32,600
\nencouragement to you and we
\nthank you for continue to come <\/p>\n

87
\n00:04:32,600 –> 00:04:35,200
\nback and listen.
\nSo That I will turn it over to <\/p>\n

88
\n00:04:35,200 –> 00:04:38,900
\nBrother, Andy Walton for his
\nclass on the fig tree, right? <\/p>\n

89
\n00:04:38,900 –> 00:04:43,400
\nSo this subject is a already
\nsaid is that the Fig Tree <\/p>\n

90
\n00:04:43,400 –> 00:04:46,800
\nassigned for all time.
\nAnd the reason that our thought <\/p>\n

91
\n00:04:46,800 –> 00:04:50,300
\nI would do it today is because I
\nonly did it last Saturday at a <\/p>\n

92
\n00:04:50,300 –> 00:04:54,600
\nyouth weekend for lapworth with
\nabout 80 children. <\/p>\n

93
\n00:04:54,600 –> 00:04:58,800
\nWhile say yeah, there were
\nchildren their age 13 to 17 and <\/p>\n

94
\n00:04:58,800 –> 00:05:02,600
\nbecause it was on my mind, I
\nthought, maybe it’s a good time,<\/p>\n

95
\n00:05:02,700 –> 00:05:05,800
\nyou know, to do it for for
\nothers, as well as the young <\/p>\n

96
\n00:05:05,800 –> 00:05:10,300
\npeople that were there, last
\nSaturday, there were three talks<\/p>\n

97
\n00:05:10,300 –> 00:05:14,200
\nthat I did on Saturday for them.
\nThe first one was called the <\/p>\n

98
\n00:05:14,200 –> 00:05:16,800
\nfruit.
\nThe second one was called the <\/p>\n

99
\n00:05:16,800 –> 00:05:22,900
\ntree and the third talk was
\ncalled the future, but tonight, <\/p>\n

100
\n00:05:22,900 –> 00:05:25,500
\nyou’ll be glad to know.
\nIt’s only one talk and we’re <\/p>\n

101
\n00:05:25,500 –> 00:05:28,200
\njust going to look at the first
\ntalk that I gave on Saturday, <\/p>\n

102
\n00:05:28,200 –> 00:05:35,200
\nwhich is the fruit and I thought
\nI’d just start off by Saying how<\/p>\n

103
\n00:05:35,200 –> 00:05:40,600
\nthis talk actually came about to
\nstart with because well I just <\/p>\n

104
\n00:05:40,600 –> 00:05:44,300
\nfound it found it a little bit
\ninteresting but what happened <\/p>\n

105
\n00:05:44,300 –> 00:05:47,900
\nwas last November we were down
\nin Cornwall. <\/p>\n

106
\n00:05:47,900 –> 00:05:51,900
\nIt was my birthday on the day
\nthat we got down there and it <\/p>\n

107
\n00:05:51,900 –> 00:05:54,500
\nhappened to be the day that I
\ncaught covid. <\/p>\n

108
\n00:05:54,500 –> 00:05:58,500
\nSo we’d only been there once 24
\nhours Huntley and then we have <\/p>\n

109
\n00:05:58,500 –> 00:06:01,900
\nto head all the way back up from
\nCornwall back here with the <\/p>\n

110
\n00:06:01,907 –> 00:06:04,600
\nwindows wide open.
\nSo Angie Didn’t catch it. <\/p>\n

111
\n00:06:04,900 –> 00:06:09,000
\nAnd then, of course, Angie
\nensured that was in quarantine <\/p>\n

112
\n00:06:09,000 –> 00:06:14,800
\nthen for like days and days and
\ndays with the door shuts, I’m in<\/p>\n

113
\n00:06:14,800 –> 00:06:19,100
\nthe spare room upstairs and I
\nguess for the first few days, <\/p>\n

114
\n00:06:19,100 –> 00:06:23,300
\nall it did was, okay, slept or
\nwatched a bit of Netflix and <\/p>\n

115
\n00:06:23,300 –> 00:06:27,500
\nthen after a couple of days, I
\nthought to myself this is a <\/p>\n

116
\n00:06:27,500 –> 00:06:30,100
\ncomplete waste of my life and
\ntime. <\/p>\n

117
\n00:06:30,100 –> 00:06:34,100
\nI’m starting to feel a little
\nbit better but I’m still Allowed<\/p>\n

118
\n00:06:34,100 –> 00:06:37,600
\noutside the bedroom.
\nSo I thought, what can I do? <\/p>\n

119
\n00:06:37,600 –> 00:06:41,000
\nThat’s a bit more productive
\nthan just lying in bed, feeling <\/p>\n

120
\n00:06:41,000 –> 00:06:44,400
\nsorry for myself.
\nAnd for some reason, I thought I<\/p>\n

121
\n00:06:44,400 –> 00:06:49,000
\nwould maybe look at the Bible
\nand maybe I don’t often get time<\/p>\n

122
\n00:06:49,000 –> 00:06:53,200
\njust to stop and think.
\nSo I started praying to God <\/p>\n

123
\n00:06:53,200 –> 00:06:57,300
\nbecause I didn’t know what to do
\nwith Don and I was sleeping and <\/p>\n

124
\n00:06:57,300 –> 00:07:00,100
\npraying and thinking and getting
\nmy computer out. <\/p>\n

125
\n00:07:00,100 –> 00:07:01,700
\nAnd in the end, the thought I
\nknow. <\/p>\n

126
\n00:07:01,700 –> 00:07:03,600
\nI’m going to look at the
\nparable. <\/p>\n

127
\n00:07:03,700 –> 00:07:08,100
\nAbout the fig tree that Jesus
\ntold in Luke and then I was just<\/p>\n

128
\n00:07:08,100 –> 00:07:09,900
\nabout to start looking at that
\nParable. <\/p>\n

129
\n00:07:09,900 –> 00:07:13,800
\nWhen I thought to myself well I
\nremember hearing a long time <\/p>\n

130
\n00:07:13,800 –> 00:07:15,600
\nago.
\nThe best way of studying any <\/p>\n

131
\n00:07:15,600 –> 00:07:18,500
\nsubject is to go back to the
\nfirst time that something’s <\/p>\n

132
\n00:07:18,500 –> 00:07:24,900
\nmentioned and so I went back to
\nlooking at figs and fig trees <\/p>\n

133
\n00:07:25,000 –> 00:07:28,400
\nright the way through the Bible
\nand ended up of course in in <\/p>\n

134
\n00:07:28,400 –> 00:07:34,600
\nGenesis and I would think I must
\nhave spent at least I was on on <\/p>\n

135
\n00:07:34,600 –> 00:07:38,200
\nthis my the bed was covered in
\npaper and the computer was full <\/p>\n

136
\n00:07:38,200 –> 00:07:43,700
\nof notes and I was finding out
\nstuff that I never knew before <\/p>\n

137
\n00:07:43,700 –> 00:07:47,100
\nabout the Fig Tree, I read and
\nread and read and read stuff <\/p>\n

138
\n00:07:47,100 –> 00:07:50,700
\nabout the Fig Tree and looked at
\nthe Bible and eventually then I <\/p>\n

139
\n00:07:50,700 –> 00:07:54,900
\nthought I’ll put it all into
\nslides and so I created 128 <\/p>\n

140
\n00:07:54,900 –> 00:07:58,200
\nPowerPoint slides on the back of
\nthat or while I’m still with <\/p>\n

141
\n00:07:58,200 –> 00:08:01,900
\ncovid.
\nAnd then I went back to work and<\/p>\n

142
\n00:08:01,900 –> 00:08:05,800
\nforgot about it and then About
\nthree or four weeks after that, <\/p>\n

143
\n00:08:05,800 –> 00:08:09,900
\nMark Bateman phone me up from
\nlapworth and said, Andy the, you<\/p>\n

144
\n00:08:09,900 –> 00:08:13,300
\nwant to do a youth weekend for
\nus, because your names come up <\/p>\n

145
\n00:08:13,300 –> 00:08:16,900
\nand I said, yeah, and I thought,
\nI said, I’ve got four different <\/p>\n

146
\n00:08:16,900 –> 00:08:19,400
\nsubjects, take your pick.
\nAnd I wondered if you pick the <\/p>\n

147
\n00:08:19,400 –> 00:08:22,100
\nFig Tree and lo and behold,
\nthat’s the one they picked. <\/p>\n

148
\n00:08:22,100 –> 00:08:25,100
\nSo I thought, well, you know,
\nthat’s good. <\/p>\n

149
\n00:08:25,100 –> 00:08:28,500
\nWe’ll give it its first outing
\nat the, the youth weekend, which<\/p>\n

150
\n00:08:28,500 –> 00:08:31,300
\nI did on Saturday.
\nSo that’s the sort of history as<\/p>\n

151
\n00:08:31,300 –> 00:08:35,000
\nto why this Why I put it
\ntogether. <\/p>\n

152
\n00:08:35,000 –> 00:08:38,400
\nReally suppose the lid, the
\nlesson from my point of view is <\/p>\n

153
\n00:08:38,400 –> 00:08:44,200
\nthat aren’t a very horrible
\ntimes because I didn’t covid-19 <\/p>\n

154
\n00:08:44,200 –> 00:08:47,300
\npretty nasty for myself and
\nothers have had it a lot worse <\/p>\n

155
\n00:08:47,300 –> 00:08:50,400
\nthan I had it.
\nYou know, good things can come <\/p>\n

156
\n00:08:50,400 –> 00:08:52,000
\nout of it because I’m telling
\nyou this. <\/p>\n

157
\n00:08:52,000 –> 00:08:55,800
\nNow, if I didn’t have had, if I
\nhadn’t have had covid, I would <\/p>\n

158
\n00:08:55,800 –> 00:08:59,200
\nnever ever have done this talk
\nor at least, I can’t think I <\/p>\n

159
\n00:08:59,208 –> 00:09:00,500
\nwould have done it because I
\nwouldn’t have had the time. <\/p>\n

160
\n00:09:01,000 –> 00:09:06,400
\nSo with that, A little bit of
\nbackground, let’s open the <\/p>\n

161
\n00:09:06,400 –> 00:09:11,200
\ncurtains and let’s crack on with
\nthis talk, which is all about <\/p>\n

162
\n00:09:11,200 –> 00:09:15,800
\nthe fruit.
\nSo, the first thing that was <\/p>\n

163
\n00:09:15,800 –> 00:09:19,300
\nsort of really interesting to me
\nwas that when you’re actually <\/p>\n

164
\n00:09:19,300 –> 00:09:22,900
\nlooked at the Bible, and, of
\ncourse, right, the way through <\/p>\n

165
\n00:09:22,900 –> 00:09:28,400
\ncreation, and through the
\nestablishment of the kingdom and<\/p>\n

166
\n00:09:28,400 –> 00:09:30,500
\nthe Jews, coming back into
\nIsrael. <\/p>\n

167
\n00:09:30,500 –> 00:09:34,100
\nAnd then into the New Testament,
\nwith the Holes in the <\/p>\n

168
\n00:09:34,108 –> 00:09:37,400
\nestablishments of the of the
\nchurch in the meetings, the <\/p>\n

169
\n00:09:37,400 –> 00:09:40,000
\nclosures.
\nAnd in fact, right the way <\/p>\n

170
\n00:09:40,000 –> 00:09:45,500
\nthrough into Revelation, what I
\nfound was the Fig Tree was just <\/p>\n

171
\n00:09:45,500 –> 00:09:49,500
\neverywhere and those are all the
\nbooks in the Bible, where fix <\/p>\n

172
\n00:09:49,500 –> 00:09:52,400
\nand fig trees and mentions
\nGenesis. <\/p>\n

173
\n00:09:52,400 –> 00:09:55,600
\nTo Deuteronomy judges Psalms
\nKings proverb Song of Solomon, <\/p>\n

174
\n00:09:55,600 –> 00:10:00,200
\nIsaiah Jeremiah Hozier, Amos
\nMike and Nahum habakkuk Aggie. <\/p>\n

175
\n00:10:00,200 –> 00:10:03,400
\nI zachari Matthew Mark, Luke,
\nJohn James and revelation. <\/p>\n

176
\n00:10:04,600 –> 00:10:07,300
\nSo you think that isn’t, you
\nknow, it’s an incredible number,<\/p>\n

177
\n00:10:07,300 –> 00:10:13,400
\nin fact, as it turns out the Fig
\nTree and the Fig and mention <\/p>\n

178
\n00:10:13,400 –> 00:10:17,800
\nmore than any other tree in the
\nBible, by a considerable margin <\/p>\n

179
\n00:10:19,300 –> 00:10:23,900
\naround about 200 times, the Fig
\nTree and fix and mentioned. <\/p>\n

180
\n00:10:24,600 –> 00:10:28,500
\nThe Olive Tree is mentioned,
\nonly a fraction of times and I <\/p>\n

181
\n00:10:28,500 –> 00:10:32,000
\nthought Olive would have come
\nout number one by, you know, a <\/p>\n

182
\n00:10:32,000 –> 00:10:36,600
\nlong way but it doesn’t The Fig
\nTree Way, way out in front. <\/p>\n

183
\n00:10:37,200 –> 00:10:39,900
\nSo that was sort of quite
\ninteresting that that was the <\/p>\n

184
\n00:10:39,900 –> 00:10:43,000
\ncase.
\nAnd so the three talks, one was <\/p>\n

185
\n00:10:43,200 –> 00:10:45,900
\neffectively looking at the fruit
\nbased on Genesis. <\/p>\n

186
\n00:10:45,900 –> 00:10:50,100
\nThe second talk was based on the
\ntree, which is looking at the <\/p>\n

187
\n00:10:50,100 –> 00:10:53,400
\nKingdom of Israel.
\nAnd the third talk was basically<\/p>\n

188
\n00:10:53,700 –> 00:10:57,800
\nlooking at all the references to
\nthe Fig Tree in the gospels, and<\/p>\n

189
\n00:10:57,800 –> 00:11:01,400
\nalso the references to the
\nFuture. <\/p>\n

190
\n00:11:01,400 –> 00:11:06,300
\nBecause as it turns out the fig
\ntree, Three effectively covers <\/p>\n

191
\n00:11:06,300 –> 00:11:11,700
\nthe whole plan and purpose of
\nGod in a lot of detail. <\/p>\n

192
\n00:11:13,000 –> 00:11:18,100
\nSo this is say tonight, we just
\ngoing to be considering the <\/p>\n

193
\n00:11:18,100 –> 00:11:21,100
\nfruit.
\nNow, one of the things I when I <\/p>\n

194
\n00:11:21,100 –> 00:11:24,600
\nstarted reading up about the Fig
\nTree, one of the things that <\/p>\n

195
\n00:11:24,600 –> 00:11:29,200
\ncame out that was really
\nsurprising to me was that it is <\/p>\n

196
\n00:11:29,200 –> 00:11:33,100
\na completely unique Tree.
\nIn fact, if you got all the <\/p>\n

197
\n00:11:33,100 –> 00:11:35,900
\nfruit trees in the world and
\nthere’s many, many different <\/p>\n

198
\n00:11:35,900 –> 00:11:41,500
\nvarieties of fruit trees, the
\nFig Tree would be on its own as <\/p>\n

199
\n00:11:41,500 –> 00:11:44,200
\na unique.
\nReally versus every single other<\/p>\n

200
\n00:11:44,200 –> 00:11:47,900
\ntree that is that’s on planet
\nEarth from a fruit point of <\/p>\n

201
\n00:11:47,900 –> 00:11:50,900
\nview.
\nAnd in fact, if you later on, <\/p>\n

202
\n00:11:52,000 –> 00:11:56,900
\nget the time, go onto Google and
\ntype in this phrase what makes a<\/p>\n

203
\n00:11:56,900 –> 00:12:02,000
\nfig tree unique and you’ll find
\nthe answer comes up. <\/p>\n

204
\n00:12:02,000 –> 00:12:04,600
\nThis is still the number one
\nanswer that comes up when you <\/p>\n

205
\n00:12:04,600 –> 00:12:08,700
\ntype it into Google.
\nIt says fig trees have no <\/p>\n

206
\n00:12:08,700 –> 00:12:11,900
\nBlossom on their branches, the
\nblossom. <\/p>\n

207
\n00:12:12,200 –> 00:12:17,000
\nIs inside the fruit, and this
\nmakes the Fig Tree completely <\/p>\n

208
\n00:12:17,000 –> 00:12:21,700
\nunique because every single of
\nthe fruit tree has blossoms on <\/p>\n

209
\n00:12:21,700 –> 00:12:25,600
\nthe branches and from the
\nblossoms, come the fruit. <\/p>\n

210
\n00:12:26,300 –> 00:12:30,500
\nAnd so I thought, well, that’s
\npretty interesting that all of <\/p>\n

211
\n00:12:30,500 –> 00:12:35,200
\nthe fruit trees operate in a
\nparticular way apart from the <\/p>\n

212
\n00:12:35,200 –> 00:12:40,000
\nFig Tree.
\nAnd then I started swatting up <\/p>\n

213
\n00:12:40,000 –> 00:12:44,100
\nabout fruit and it says Fruit is
\nan edible and usually sweet <\/p>\n

214
\n00:12:44,100 –> 00:12:46,100
\nproduct of the plant or tree
\nthat can st. <\/p>\n

215
\n00:12:46,100 –> 00:12:51,200
\nContains seeds when the flower
\nis pollinated, the ovary begins <\/p>\n

216
\n00:12:51,200 –> 00:12:53,100
\nto grow and it becomes the
\nfruit. <\/p>\n

217
\n00:12:53,100 –> 00:12:57,800
\nSo I thought, well, wait a
\nminute, this this is odd then <\/p>\n

218
\n00:12:57,800 –> 00:13:04,000
\nbecause if all the fruit trees
\nhave got a flower, and the <\/p>\n

219
\n00:13:04,000 –> 00:13:09,100
\nflower and the ovary becomes,
\nthe fruit wasn’t Earth is <\/p>\n

220
\n00:13:09,100 –> 00:13:12,000
\nhappening with the Fig Tree, and
\nwhy is it different and, and <\/p>\n

221
\n00:13:12,200 –> 00:13:14,300
\nWhat’s going on.
\nAnd clearly it’s an important <\/p>\n

222
\n00:13:14,300 –> 00:13:17,400
\ntree from a Biblical point of
\nview, because it’s mentioned all<\/p>\n

223
\n00:13:17,400 –> 00:13:19,400
\nthe time more than any other
\ntree. <\/p>\n

224
\n00:13:20,600 –> 00:13:23,800
\nSo, Yeah.
\nSo here we are. <\/p>\n

225
\n00:13:23,800 –> 00:13:26,600
\nHere’s here’s some figs.
\nI don’t know when your last day <\/p>\n

226
\n00:13:26,600 –> 00:13:32,300
\nto Fig, I haven’t eaten.
\nIn fact, tried to buy the kids a<\/p>\n

227
\n00:13:32,300 –> 00:13:34,500
\nfig each.
\nBut you try getting hold of a <\/p>\n

228
\n00:13:34,508 –> 00:13:37,300
\nfresh fig at the minute.
\nIt is absolutely not an <\/p>\n

229
\n00:13:37,300 –> 00:13:40,300
\nimpossible unless you unless you
\nwant to spend a huge amount of <\/p>\n

230
\n00:13:40,300 –> 00:13:41,900
\nmoney.
\nSo I gave them all a fig roll <\/p>\n

231
\n00:13:41,900 –> 00:13:45,900
\ninstead, which were 45 p 4
\nmonsters, which saved a lot of <\/p>\n

232
\n00:13:45,908 –> 00:13:49,200
\nmoney.
\nBut anyway, so as I’ve said, the<\/p>\n

233
\n00:13:49,200 –> 00:13:52,000
\nvictories unique no blossoms on
\nthe branches. <\/p>\n

234
\n00:13:52,500 –> 00:13:56,600
\nSo I then said to myself, well,
\nthere must be some flowers <\/p>\n

235
\n00:13:56,600 –> 00:14:00,100
\nsomewhere because surely,
\nthere’s got to be some seeds, <\/p>\n

236
\n00:14:00,100 –> 00:14:04,100
\nit’s got to be some flowers,
\nsomething stock to be pollinated<\/p>\n

237
\n00:14:04,500 –> 00:14:10,700
\nand it turns out of course that
\nthe flowers are on the inside of<\/p>\n

238
\n00:14:10,700 –> 00:14:13,600
\nthe fruit itself.
\nThis is again, completely <\/p>\n

239
\n00:14:13,600 –> 00:14:15,600
\nunique.
\nSo there are flowers but they’re<\/p>\n

240
\n00:14:15,600 –> 00:14:22,200
\nhidden inside the Fig.
\nSo then I thought to myself, <\/p>\n

241
\n00:14:22,400 –> 00:14:28,000
\nWell, that’s sort of quite
\ninteresting, but how on Earth do<\/p>\n

242
\n00:14:28,000 –> 00:14:31,700
\nflowers on the inside of the
\nfruit get pollinated because I <\/p>\n

243
\n00:14:31,700 –> 00:14:34,300
\ncan understand a bee or
\nsomething like that. <\/p>\n

244
\n00:14:34,300 –> 00:14:40,200
\nPollinating a flower that you
\ncan see, but what, and how would<\/p>\n

245
\n00:14:40,400 –> 00:14:42,900
\nthese little flowers get
\npollinated? <\/p>\n

246
\n00:14:42,900 –> 00:14:47,400
\nWhen they’re wrapped tightly
\ninside the fruit because things <\/p>\n

247
\n00:14:47,400 –> 00:14:50,600
\nhave to be pollinated.
\nIf they aint got seeds, then the<\/p>\n

248
\n00:14:50,900 –> 00:14:53,800
\nthat tree.
\nComes extinct very, very <\/p>\n

249
\n00:14:53,800 –> 00:14:55,700
\nquickly.
\nSo I’m going to show you a <\/p>\n

250
\n00:14:55,708 –> 00:14:59,000
\ncouple of videos now and when
\nyou’re listening to these <\/p>\n

251
\n00:14:59,000 –> 00:15:03,100
\nvideos, hopefully, you can hear
\nit really think about the <\/p>\n

252
\n00:15:03,100 –> 00:15:08,200
\nlanguage that they’re using in
\nthe videos, but this is about to<\/p>\n

253
\n00:15:08,200 –> 00:15:13,300
\nshow you exactly how the Fig
\ngets pollinated. <\/p>\n

254
\n00:15:19,900 –> 00:15:31,400
\nNow, why isn’t that playing?
\nSorry about this. <\/p>\n

255
\n00:15:38,900 –> 00:15:41,900
\nSure.
\nPens on a bizarre creature, it <\/p>\n

256
\n00:15:41,900 –> 00:15:45,700
\ndepends on a bizarre creature
\nthat you might have never even <\/p>\n

257
\n00:15:45,700 –> 00:15:51,600
\nheard of the Fig wasp.
\nThis miniscule. <\/p>\n

258
\n00:15:51,600 –> 00:15:56,800
\nInsect is just around two
\nmillimeters long, the Wasps life<\/p>\n

259
\n00:15:56,800 –> 00:16:00,100
\ncycle is deeply intertwined with
\nthe Fig. <\/p>\n

260
\n00:16:00,700 –> 00:16:04,400
\nShe knows that the only way to
\nget into the fruit is through a <\/p>\n

261
\n00:16:04,400 –> 00:16:11,100
\ntiny hole on the bottom.
\nShe has to sacrifice her wings <\/p>\n

262
\n00:16:11,400 –> 00:16:13,800
\nin order to get through the
\ntight nozzle. <\/p>\n

263
\n00:16:14,700 –> 00:16:19,200
\nBut she won’t mind as she knows
\nthat she’ll never fly again. <\/p>\n

264
\n00:16:23,400 –> 00:16:28,100
\nOnce inside the Strangler fig
\nshuts the entrance to its fruit.<\/p>\n

265
\n00:16:28,900 –> 00:16:33,800
\nThus the Final Act of the Wasps
\nlife is to lay her eggs in the <\/p>\n

266
\n00:16:33,800 –> 00:16:37,800
\ncavity.
\nAfter that, she will die in <\/p>\n

267
\n00:16:37,800 –> 00:16:43,800
\nthere over time, the flowers and
\nthe WASP eggs, develop and the <\/p>\n

268
\n00:16:43,800 –> 00:16:49,200
\nFig transforms into a mature
\nfruit from today. <\/p>\n

269
\n00:16:49,200 –> 00:16:52,700
\nYou are, that’s the first video.
\nHave a look at this next video <\/p>\n

270
\n00:16:55,400 –> 00:16:59,700
\nand so the pollen Laden Wast
\nreaches an immature fig, but her<\/p>\n

271
\n00:16:59,700 –> 00:17:02,600
\njourney is far from.
\nOver ahead lies, the greatest <\/p>\n

272
\n00:17:02,600 –> 00:17:06,099
\nchallenge of her brief life
\nclawing and squeezing her way <\/p>\n

273
\n00:17:06,099 –> 00:17:09,200
\nthrough the gate, her wings and
\nantennae are ripped from her. <\/p>\n

274
\n00:17:09,599 –> 00:17:13,599
\nShe makes the ultimate sacrifice
\nas the final push to enter burst<\/p>\n

275
\n00:17:13,599 –> 00:17:16,700
\nher abdomen.
\nIn an epic struggle, between <\/p>\n

276
\n00:17:16,700 –> 00:17:19,700
\nsacrifice and survival.
\nThe mother wasp crawls through <\/p>\n

277
\n00:17:19,708 –> 00:17:22,300
\nthe narrow Labyrinth towards the
\ninner chamber. <\/p>\n

278
\n00:17:22,300 –> 00:17:26,300
\nShe is wounded and week airing
\nonly her eggs and the pollen <\/p>\n

279
\n00:17:26,300 –> 00:17:29,900
\ngift from the former fake.
\nIf the WASP fails to pollinate <\/p>\n

280
\n00:17:29,900 –> 00:17:34,100
\nthe flowers, No Seeds will ever
\ndevelop big fruits with no <\/p>\n

281
\n00:17:34,100 –> 00:17:37,200
\nfuture are costly to the tree.
\nSo they will not receive an <\/p>\n

282
\n00:17:37,200 –> 00:17:40,800
\ninflow of nutrient.
\nIf the WASP does not pollinate <\/p>\n

283
\n00:17:40,800 –> 00:17:44,900
\nthe entire fake may be aborted.
\nHowever, if she devotes herself <\/p>\n

284
\n00:17:44,900 –> 00:17:49,000
\nto Pollination as well as laying
\neggs Ginger’s, the Fig will hold<\/p>\n

285
\n00:17:49,000 –> 00:17:52,000
\nthe promise of seeds.
\nThe tree will pump sugars and <\/p>\n

286
\n00:17:52,000 –> 00:17:55,600
\nnutrients into the Fig, securing
\nthe future of seeds and larvae. <\/p>\n

287
\n00:17:55,600 –> 00:17:59,600
\nLike, when they mature and leave
\nthe fake will ripen, thus <\/p>\n

288
\n00:17:59,600 –> 00:18:03,800
\ncompleting the cycle of mutual
\nbenefit and just one more that <\/p>\n

289
\n00:18:03,800 –> 00:18:08,200
\nwill be the end.
\nThe Fig is not a fruit but a <\/p>\n

290
\n00:18:08,200 –> 00:18:11,800
\nhollow Garden of Flowers.
\nA female fig wasp has laid her <\/p>\n

291
\n00:18:11,800 –> 00:18:15,100
\neggs and pollinated the flowers,
\nwhich have now reached maturity.<\/p>\n

292
\n00:18:15,700 –> 00:18:18,500
\nThe Fig is a nursery.
\nIt is cared for the future wasp <\/p>\n

293
\n00:18:18,500 –> 00:18:20,500
\nby protecting them within its
\nGap. <\/p>\n

294
\n00:18:21,500 –> 00:18:26,800
\nSo, just to put it into
\nperspective, by the way, the <\/p>\n

295
\n00:18:26,800 –> 00:18:31,800
\nfemale that you can see there.
\nThe female fig was is no more <\/p>\n

296
\n00:18:31,800 –> 00:18:34,400
\nthan two millimeters long so
\nit’s not like the WASP that <\/p>\n

297
\n00:18:34,400 –> 00:18:38,300
\nyou’d see flying around in your
\nBut when I actually played this <\/p>\n

298
\n00:18:38,300 –> 00:18:42,900
\nvideo already the kids that
\nlatched onto something, I don’t <\/p>\n

299
\n00:18:42,900 –> 00:18:46,300
\nknow whether you’ve latched onto
\nthis, but when it talks about a <\/p>\n

300
\n00:18:46,300 –> 00:18:50,500
\nwasp dying inside the Fig,
\nthat’s exactly what happens. <\/p>\n

301
\n00:18:50,900 –> 00:18:57,000
\nAnd so, effectively, and we’ll
\nget on to this a bit later in. <\/p>\n

302
\n00:18:57,000 –> 00:19:03,200
\nAlmost all of the fix that you
\neat is a decomposed dead wasp, <\/p>\n

303
\n00:19:03,500 –> 00:19:09,900
\nbut it completely is decomposed.
\nCuz the fruit itself, pump some <\/p>\n

304
\n00:19:10,200 –> 00:19:14,400
\nfeikin into the WASP which
\ncompletely dissolves it. <\/p>\n

305
\n00:19:14,400 –> 00:19:17,700
\nSo you’re not crunching on a
\ndead wasp, but it’s interesting <\/p>\n

306
\n00:19:17,700 –> 00:19:19,800
\nfor the kids, instantly picked
\nup on that. <\/p>\n

307
\n00:19:20,300 –> 00:19:23,000
\nBut here’s the, here’s the
\ninteresting thing, right? <\/p>\n

308
\n00:19:23,000 –> 00:19:27,700
\nSo I watch those videos, many
\nmany, many times and was <\/p>\n

309
\n00:19:27,700 –> 00:19:32,000
\nthinking about it and dreaming
\nabout it in my covid state and <\/p>\n

310
\n00:19:32,000 –> 00:19:35,600
\nit’s suddenly what I did then
\nwas write down all the key <\/p>\n

311
\n00:19:35,600 –> 00:19:39,300
\nphrase.
\nIs that came out of those videos<\/p>\n

312
\n00:19:39,300 –> 00:19:41,400
\nthat I’ve given you edited
\nversions of. <\/p>\n

313
\n00:19:41,400 –> 00:19:45,100
\nAnd here’s the key phrases that
\nyou will have heard in those few<\/p>\n

314
\n00:19:45,100 –> 00:19:48,900
\nvideos.
\nFirst of all, it talks about the<\/p>\n

315
\n00:19:48,900 –> 00:19:51,300
\nFig being like an enclosed
\nGarden. <\/p>\n

316
\n00:19:52,800 –> 00:19:57,000
\nSecondly, it said that there was
\nonly one and very narrow way <\/p>\n

317
\n00:19:57,000 –> 00:20:03,000
\ninto this Garden.
\nThere was talk about the alter. <\/p>\n

318
\n00:20:03,000 –> 00:20:06,000
\nThe phrase was used the ultimate
\nsacrifice, so don’t know where <\/p>\n

319
\n00:20:06,000 –> 00:20:11,500
\nthe you heard that as the wings
\nwere undone 10 Ayo, torn off the<\/p>\n

320
\n00:20:11,600 –> 00:20:16,300
\nFig wasp and it as it makes its
\nway into the Fig. <\/p>\n

321
\n00:20:16,800 –> 00:20:21,200
\nIt’s no way out because the the
\ndoor is closed, effectively the <\/p>\n

322
\n00:20:21,200 –> 00:20:24,400
\nfigs or automatically seals
\nitself up. <\/p>\n

323
\n00:20:24,400 –> 00:20:29,700
\nWhen a fig wasp has gone in the
\ndoor is closed and therefore <\/p>\n

324
\n00:20:29,700 –> 00:20:35,300
\nit’s going to die inside you.
\nYou have heard the words if <\/p>\n

325
\n00:20:35,300 –> 00:20:39,800
\nyou’re listening carefully,
\nEither the Fig wasp was wounded <\/p>\n

326
\n00:20:39,800 –> 00:20:44,000
\nand week.
\nYou’d have also heard the words <\/p>\n

327
\n00:20:44,000 –> 00:20:49,500
\nthat the Fig wasp is devoted to
\npollination you would have also <\/p>\n

328
\n00:20:49,500 –> 00:20:53,900
\nheard these words as well.
\nThe promise of seeds. <\/p>\n

329
\n00:20:53,900 –> 00:20:59,900
\nSo basically the Fig wasp is all
\nabout providing the promise of <\/p>\n

330
\n00:20:59,900 –> 00:21:04,000
\nfuture seed and the last thing
\nthat you’ll have heard is that <\/p>\n

331
\n00:21:04,000 –> 00:21:08,100
\nthe future of the Fig, Is
\nsecured of put of the Fig in <\/p>\n

332
\n00:21:08,100 –> 00:21:11,700
\nBrackets there but the future is
\nsecured or the future of the <\/p>\n

333
\n00:21:11,700 –> 00:21:17,100
\nfigures secured because of the
\nwork of this tiny minuscule <\/p>\n

334
\n00:21:17,400 –> 00:21:23,700
\nlittle fig wasp so I was like
\nstaring at these things. <\/p>\n

335
\n00:21:23,700 –> 00:21:27,400
\nThinking to myself this is these
\nare quite amazing little phrases<\/p>\n

336
\n00:21:27,400 –> 00:21:30,700
\nthat none of these by the way or
\nanything to do with Christian <\/p>\n

337
\n00:21:30,700 –> 00:21:32,800
\nvideos.
\nNothing, what’s over there? <\/p>\n

338
\n00:21:32,800 –> 00:21:37,100
\nJust fig wasp videos that on all
\nsorts of different Channels. <\/p>\n

339
\n00:21:38,600 –> 00:21:41,700
\nAnd I said to the children at
\nthe youth weekend, I said, does <\/p>\n

340
\n00:21:41,700 –> 00:21:45,000
\nthis ring any bells with any of
\nyou that if we weren’t thinking <\/p>\n

341
\n00:21:45,000 –> 00:21:50,000
\nabout figs and fig wasps
\nnecessarily does do these words <\/p>\n

342
\n00:21:50,000 –> 00:21:54,700
\non the right hand side, take you
\ntwo anywhere at all in the Bible<\/p>\n

343
\n00:21:54,700 –> 00:21:56,700
\nand about half a dozen hands.
\nGo up. <\/p>\n

344
\n00:21:57,100 –> 00:22:00,100
\nAnd they said it sounds a bit.
\nLike the Garden of Eden, with an<\/p>\n

345
\n00:22:00,100 –> 00:22:03,400
\nenclosed garden and, and sort of
\nseeds. <\/p>\n

346
\n00:22:03,400 –> 00:22:07,100
\nAnd even perhaps mention of a
\nfig, And I said, well, that’s <\/p>\n

347
\n00:22:07,100 –> 00:22:13,800
\nwhere my mind went so my mind
\nwent into the Garden of Eden. <\/p>\n

348
\n00:22:14,200 –> 00:22:18,900
\nIn fact, the word Garden in
\nHebrew means something that is <\/p>\n

349
\n00:22:18,900 –> 00:22:25,100
\nenclosed and the phrase of that
\nwas in the video, was a fig is <\/p>\n

350
\n00:22:25,100 –> 00:22:30,700
\nlike an enclosed Garden.
\nSo, here we are in the Garden of<\/p>\n

351
\n00:22:30,700 –> 00:22:35,400
\nEden that God made at the
\nbeginning and what we’re going <\/p>\n

352
\n00:22:35,400 –> 00:22:39,800
\nto discover Is that all of those
\nthings that we’ve just been <\/p>\n

353
\n00:22:40,100 –> 00:22:44,700
\ntalking about all of those key
\nphrases in relation to the Fig <\/p>\n

354
\n00:22:44,700 –> 00:22:47,900
\nwasp?
\nEvery last one of them are there<\/p>\n

355
\n00:22:47,900 –> 00:22:52,500
\nin Genesis chapter 3, that Andy
\nkindly read the first seven <\/p>\n

356
\n00:22:52,500 –> 00:22:55,400
\nverses for us.
\nNow, one of the key things that <\/p>\n

357
\n00:22:55,400 –> 00:23:00,300
\nwe know, of course, in the
\nGarden of Eden is that and this <\/p>\n

358
\n00:23:00,300 –> 00:23:03,600
\nis, this is the center of the
\nstory, of course, is that there <\/p>\n

359
\n00:23:03,600 –> 00:23:05,400
\nwas a tree of knowledge of Good
\nand Evil. <\/p>\n

360
\n00:23:05,400 –> 00:23:09,200
\nThat was in the Center of the
\ngarden and what we’ve just been <\/p>\n

361
\n00:23:09,200 –> 00:23:14,500
\nreading about in Genesis chapter
\n3 is basically what happened. <\/p>\n

362
\n00:23:14,900 –> 00:23:20,100
\nReference, the serpent, the
\nwoman and atom in relation to <\/p>\n

363
\n00:23:20,100 –> 00:23:27,300
\nthis particular tree.
\nSo what we have read and I’ll <\/p>\n

364
\n00:23:27,300 –> 00:23:29,500
\njust read these words again and
\noh we know them. <\/p>\n

365
\n00:23:29,500 –> 00:23:34,500
\nSo so well but the internet is
\n3:1-5. <\/p>\n

366
\n00:23:34,500 –> 00:23:38,000
\nBearing in mind, we’re in an
\nenclosed Garden at this point <\/p>\n

367
\n00:23:38,400 –> 00:23:40,900
\nand we’re looking for those
\nother key phrases. <\/p>\n

368
\n00:23:41,300 –> 00:23:44,500
\nIt says, now the serpent was
\nmore subtle than any beast of <\/p>\n

369
\n00:23:44,500 –> 00:23:48,200
\nthe field, which the Lord God
\nhad made and he said unto the <\/p>\n

370
\n00:23:48,200 –> 00:23:50,000
\nwoman.
\nYea hath. <\/p>\n

371
\n00:23:50,000 –> 00:23:53,800
\nGod said, You shall not eat of
\nevery tree of of the garden and <\/p>\n

372
\n00:23:53,800 –> 00:23:57,100
\nthe woman said unto the serpent.
\nWe may eat of the fruit of the <\/p>\n

373
\n00:23:57,108 –> 00:24:00,100
\nTrees of the garden, but of the
\nfruit of the tree which is in <\/p>\n

374
\n00:24:00,108 –> 00:24:03,400
\nthe midst of the garden.
\nGod had said, You shall not eat <\/p>\n

375
\n00:24:03,400 –> 00:24:05,800
\na bit, neither shall you, touch
\nit, lest you die. <\/p>\n

376
\n00:24:06,400 –> 00:24:10,700
\nAnd the serpent said unto the
\nwoman, ye shall not surely die <\/p>\n

377
\n00:24:11,200 –> 00:24:12,800
\nfor.
\nGod knows that in the day you <\/p>\n

378
\n00:24:12,800 –> 00:24:16,200
\neat of it, then your eyes shall
\nbe opened and you will be as <\/p>\n

379
\n00:24:16,200 –> 00:24:21,500
\nGod’s knowing Good and Evil.
\nSo here, we’ve got this, we’ve <\/p>\n

380
\n00:24:21,500 –> 00:24:26,200
\ngot the woman being deceived by
\nthe serpent because the serpent <\/p>\n

381
\n00:24:26,200 –> 00:24:30,300
\nsaid, You shall not surely die
\nand we know that that was an <\/p>\n

382
\n00:24:30,300 –> 00:24:33,700
\nabsolute Lie.
\nBy the way, of course, half of <\/p>\n

383
\n00:24:33,700 –> 00:24:36,500
\nit was true, and half of it was
\nlies because their eyes were <\/p>\n

384
\n00:24:36,500 –> 00:24:40,200
\nopened and they did understand
\ngood and evil at that point. <\/p>\n

385
\n00:24:40,500 –> 00:24:44,300
\nBut of course, the lie.
\nPart was that you, you won’t die<\/p>\n

386
\n00:24:45,200 –> 00:24:48,100
\nnow.
\nOf course, at that very point in<\/p>\n

387
\n00:24:48,100 –> 00:24:52,800
\ntime, it says, Is that both of
\nthem realize that they were <\/p>\n

388
\n00:24:52,800 –> 00:24:54,700
\nnaked?
\nIt says the eyes of both were <\/p>\n

389
\n00:24:54,700 –> 00:24:58,200
\nopened, they knew that they were
\nnaked and here we’ve now got a <\/p>\n

390
\n00:24:58,208 –> 00:25:02,000
\nreference to Fig leaves because
\nit says they sewed fig leaves <\/p>\n

391
\n00:25:02,000 –> 00:25:06,000
\ntogether of all trees and made
\nthemselves aprons. <\/p>\n

392
\n00:25:06,400 –> 00:25:10,800
\nSo, we’ve even got sort of a
\nreference here to fix, but the <\/p>\n

393
\n00:25:10,800 –> 00:25:13,700
\nother bit that we read about,
\nwhich we haven’t read. <\/p>\n

394
\n00:25:14,000 –> 00:25:18,700
\nJust now, of course, is the
\nreally key purse. <\/p>\n

395
\n00:25:19,900 –> 00:25:24,800
\nProbably at this point in the
\nBible, I would suggest which is <\/p>\n

396
\n00:25:24,800 –> 00:25:29,900
\nGenesis 3:15.
\nAnd here, now, we’ve also got <\/p>\n

397
\n00:25:29,900 –> 00:25:33,300
\nmention of seeds.
\nRemember, one of the quotes from<\/p>\n

398
\n00:25:33,300 –> 00:25:40,600
\nthe video All there.
\nThat’s the question, right? <\/p>\n

399
\n00:25:40,600 –> 00:25:44,900
\nOkay, give me a moment.
\nI will get the show back on the <\/p>\n

400
\n00:25:44,900 –> 00:25:47,000
\nroad, but you’re coping with
\nthis, right? <\/p>\n

401
\n00:25:47,000 –> 00:25:54,100
\nHold on a minute, right?
\nBear with me. <\/p>\n

402
\n00:25:58,000 –> 00:25:59,700
\nYeah.
\nThe internet just literally just<\/p>\n

403
\n00:25:59,700 –> 00:26:05,100
\nswitched itself completely off.
\nRight Alfie. <\/p>\n

404
\n00:26:05,100 –> 00:26:06,800
\nCan you see that?
\nAnd you can you see that? <\/p>\n

405
\n00:26:06,800 –> 00:26:08,600
\nGive me a thumbs up with back
\non. <\/p>\n

406
\n00:26:08,800 –> 00:26:11,200
\nOkay, right.
\nSo sorry about that little <\/p>\n

407
\n00:26:11,200 –> 00:26:17,700
\ninterlude.
\nI’ll see if I can still benefit <\/p>\n

408
\n00:26:17,700 –> 00:26:19,300
\nstill recording or what it’s
\ndoing. <\/p>\n

409
\n00:26:19,600 –> 00:26:23,600
\nI think it’s still recording.
\nOkay, so sorry about that. <\/p>\n

410
\n00:26:23,700 –> 00:26:26,500
\nSo I’ll try and get my brain
\nback into gave us where we are. <\/p>\n

411
\n00:26:26,500 –> 00:26:28,400
\nSo yeah.
\nSo I was saying that God is <\/p>\n

412
\n00:26:28,400 –> 00:26:31,400
\ntalking to the serpent.
\nI will put enmity hatred between<\/p>\n

413
\n00:26:31,400 –> 00:26:33,400
\nyou mr.
\nSerpent. <\/p>\n

414
\n00:26:33,600 –> 00:26:39,000
\nThe woman who’s even between
\nyour seed or your descendants, <\/p>\n

415
\n00:26:39,300 –> 00:26:42,300
\nmr.
\nSerpent, and the woman seed or <\/p>\n

416
\n00:26:42,300 –> 00:26:46,900
\nher descendants it, or he shall
\nbruise thy head. <\/p>\n

417
\n00:26:48,100 –> 00:26:50,900
\nSo in other words, the
\ndescendant of the woman, he’s <\/p>\n

418
\n00:26:50,900 –> 00:26:56,100
\ngoing to bruise the head of the
\nserpent and you or did he <\/p>\n

419
\n00:26:56,100 –> 00:27:00,000
\ncendant of the serpent.
\nIt’s going to bruise his heel. <\/p>\n

420
\n00:27:00,500 –> 00:27:03,400
\nSo we’ve talked a lot about this
\nverse in the past. <\/p>\n

421
\n00:27:03,500 –> 00:27:07,400
\nWe know what it actually means
\nso just putting it on the <\/p>\n

422
\n00:27:07,400 –> 00:27:12,800
\nBlackboard here.
\nWe know, of course was the lead <\/p>\n

423
\n00:27:12,800 –> 00:27:17,900
\noriginal cause of sin and became
\nsymbolic of sin itself <\/p>\n

424
\n00:27:17,900 –> 00:27:20,200
\nthroughout the throughout the
\nscriptures because it was the <\/p>\n

425
\n00:27:20,200 –> 00:27:26,800
\nserpent that put the deceased,
\nthe deceptive thought into Eve’s<\/p>\n

426
\n00:27:26,800 –> 00:27:28,100
\nmind.
\nHe was 10. <\/p>\n

427
\n00:27:28,200 –> 00:27:32,600
\nHe was testing Eve and tempting,
\neven making her think things <\/p>\n

428
\n00:27:32,600 –> 00:27:35,100
\nthat were different.
\nTo what God had said. <\/p>\n

429
\n00:27:36,300 –> 00:27:39,800
\nAnd again, what we said with the
\nchildren was look, are we <\/p>\n

430
\n00:27:39,800 –> 00:27:43,500
\nexpecting the seed of the
\nserpent to be literal baby? <\/p>\n

431
\n00:27:43,500 –> 00:27:47,400
\nSerpents in the future and they
\nsaid, no, we don’t think that’s <\/p>\n

432
\n00:27:47,400 –> 00:27:49,600
\nwhat we’re looking for.
\nAnd I said, no, we’re not what <\/p>\n

433
\n00:27:49,600 –> 00:27:53,700
\nwe’re looking for, isn’t little
\nbaby future serpents that are <\/p>\n

434
\n00:27:53,700 –> 00:27:58,200
\ngoing to cause a problem, what
\nwe’re looking for our future <\/p>\n

435
\n00:27:58,200 –> 00:28:02,900
\nsins, causing a problem that
\ndown the line. <\/p>\n

436
\n00:28:02,900 –> 00:28:09,000
\nSo the Seed of the serpent is
\nreally code for future sins. <\/p>\n

437
\n00:28:09,000 –> 00:28:15,700
\nYou might say human nature in
\nterms of the woman. <\/p>\n

438
\n00:28:16,200 –> 00:28:18,500
\nWell, we know who the woman was
\nit’s eve. <\/p>\n

439
\n00:28:18,500 –> 00:28:22,600
\nAnd in terms of the seed of the
\nwoman, a descendant of the woman<\/p>\n

440
\n00:28:23,400 –> 00:28:27,200
\nwe’re clearly being told there’s
\ngoing to be a future son that <\/p>\n

441
\n00:28:27,200 –> 00:28:30,000
\nwas going to come along.
\nAnd what God’s saying is that <\/p>\n

442
\n00:28:30,000 –> 00:28:33,400
\nthere’s going to be friction or
\nemnity. <\/p>\n

443
\n00:28:34,200 –> 00:28:38,500
\nThe future sins that come along
\nand this future son. <\/p>\n

444
\n00:28:38,500 –> 00:28:42,100
\nIn other words, it’s almost like
\na battle that goes on between a <\/p>\n

445
\n00:28:42,100 –> 00:28:47,300
\nfuture, son, and future, sins,
\nor human nature. <\/p>\n

446
\n00:28:48,100 –> 00:28:52,300
\nAnd what God is telling us
\nalmost in symbolic code form in <\/p>\n

447
\n00:28:52,300 –> 00:28:58,200
\nthe in Genesis 3:15, is that the
\nfuture Son of Eve is going to <\/p>\n

448
\n00:28:58,600 –> 00:29:03,300
\nfatally wound or bruise, the
\nhead of the serpent, which is <\/p>\n

449
\n00:29:03,400 –> 00:29:05,900
\nSin.
\nSo there’s there is some sort of<\/p>\n

450
\n00:29:06,600 –> 00:29:11,400
\nfight if you want to call it.
\nThat going on between a future <\/p>\n

451
\n00:29:11,400 –> 00:29:14,500
\nSon of Eve.
\nAnd and what we obviously <\/p>\n

452
\n00:29:14,500 –> 00:29:17,800
\nunderstand is that if you if you
\nwhack somebody on the head to <\/p>\n

453
\n00:29:17,800 –> 00:29:20,200
\ncause a bruise, then that can be
\nfatal. <\/p>\n

454
\n00:29:21,600 –> 00:29:26,000
\nAnd in fact sin we’re told is
\ngoing to bruise. <\/p>\n

455
\n00:29:26,000 –> 00:29:32,600
\nThe future sons heel in other
\nwords, seen in a sense is going <\/p>\n

456
\n00:29:32,600 –> 00:29:39,000
\nto cause Some pain to this
\nfuture Son of Eve and what we’re<\/p>\n

457
\n00:29:39,000 –> 00:29:42,300
\ngoing to find out of course and
\nas we know this is the temporary<\/p>\n

458
\n00:29:42,300 –> 00:29:46,600
\npain of sacrifice.
\nSo remember talking about the <\/p>\n

459
\n00:29:46,600 –> 00:29:49,200
\nFig wasps going back to that
\nthat we, you know, we were <\/p>\n

460
\n00:29:49,200 –> 00:29:51,400
\nsaying that there’s some key
\nthings that we’re looking for <\/p>\n

461
\n00:29:51,400 –> 00:29:55,300
\nhere, the promise of seeds,
\nwe’re looking for, sacrifice <\/p>\n

462
\n00:29:55,300 –> 00:29:57,300
\nwounding.
\nAll of those things were <\/p>\n

463
\n00:29:57,300 –> 00:30:00,700
\nhappening inside the Fig, and
\nwe’ve got very similar themes <\/p>\n

464
\n00:30:00,700 –> 00:30:07,200
\nhere in Genesis 3:15, Now what I
\nfound was a really I think this <\/p>\n

465
\n00:30:07,200 –> 00:30:09,300
\nis a brilliant image.
\nI don’t know what you think to <\/p>\n

466
\n00:30:09,300 –> 00:30:14,700
\nthis that sums up Genesis 3:15
\nreally, really well because as <\/p>\n

467
\n00:30:14,700 –> 00:30:17,200
\nyou can see there on the left,
\nyou’ve got the legs of Jesus <\/p>\n

468
\n00:30:17,200 –> 00:30:21,900
\nChrist on the cross with a nail
\nthat’s going through his feet. <\/p>\n

469
\n00:30:21,900 –> 00:30:27,100
\nBut of course it’s the nail also
\nis going through the snake. <\/p>\n

470
\n00:30:27,100 –> 00:30:31,500
\nNow we know there wasn’t a snake
\nwhen Jesus was crucified, it’s a<\/p>\n

471
\n00:30:31,508 –> 00:30:34,000
\nsymbolic thing.
\nBut you notice that the way they<\/p>\n

472
\n00:30:34,000 –> 00:30:37,600
\ndepicted I think this is that
\nthe nails gone through his feet <\/p>\n

473
\n00:30:38,000 –> 00:30:42,700
\nand has gone through the head of
\nthe serpent and I think this is <\/p>\n

474
\n00:30:42,700 –> 00:30:46,700
\na really good way of
\nunderstanding Genesis 3:15. <\/p>\n

475
\n00:30:47,100 –> 00:30:51,900
\nIn fact, all the evidence from
\ncrucifixion is that the nail <\/p>\n

476
\n00:30:51,900 –> 00:30:56,300
\nwould have come out through the
\nback of the heel of the Lord <\/p>\n

477
\n00:30:56,300 –> 00:30:58,600
\nJesus Christ.
\nAnd actually there’s a whole <\/p>\n

478
\n00:30:58,600 –> 00:31:01,500
\ntalk and listen to him.
\nThis about how it would have <\/p>\n

479
\n00:31:01,500 –> 00:31:06,000
\nburst apart the Achilles heel.
\nThe tendon at the back of your <\/p>\n

480
\n00:31:06,000 –> 00:31:09,200
\nheel which is one of the most,
\nvery painful things that the <\/p>\n

481
\n00:31:09,200 –> 00:31:13,700
\nbody can endure is, this is the
\ncomplete rupture in tearing of <\/p>\n

482
\n00:31:13,700 –> 00:31:18,400
\nthat.
\nSo really when God said that sin<\/p>\n

483
\n00:31:18,400 –> 00:31:24,700
\nwould bruise the heel of the
\nLord Jesus Christ, if they <\/p>\n

484
\n00:31:24,700 –> 00:31:28,400
\nactively, that’s exactly what
\nhappened because because Jesus <\/p>\n

485
\n00:31:28,400 –> 00:31:34,800
\nhad human nature, he did have to
\ndie and therefore sin, Did <\/p>\n

486
\n00:31:34,800 –> 00:31:39,100
\ncausing that that literally that
\nthat terrible pain. <\/p>\n

487
\n00:31:39,100 –> 00:31:44,600
\nHowever, I said to the children,
\nyou know, how was it that Jesus <\/p>\n

488
\n00:31:44,900 –> 00:31:49,300
\ndefeated sin just by dying
\nbecause how does that defeat sin<\/p>\n

489
\n00:31:49,300 –> 00:31:53,000
\nby dying and they correctly
\nsaid, well, it’s because he <\/p>\n

490
\n00:31:53,000 –> 00:32:02,500
\novercame sin, he didn’t let sin
\nwin and I said, Sin only wins if<\/p>\n

491
\n00:32:02,600 –> 00:32:09,400
\nwe if we sort of you know let’s
\nsee it only wins if we let the <\/p>\n

492
\n00:32:09,400 –> 00:32:16,800
\nTemptation overcome us and Jesus
\ndidn’t once let the Temptation <\/p>\n

493
\n00:32:17,000 –> 00:32:19,600
\novercome him and that’s how he
\ndefeated sin. <\/p>\n

494
\n00:32:19,600 –> 00:32:24,200
\nHe didn’t give in to it.
\nThat’s right. <\/p>\n

495
\n00:32:24,200 –> 00:32:26,200
\nSin only wins if we give in to
\nsin. <\/p>\n

496
\n00:32:26,300 –> 00:32:29,500
\nThat’s what I said.
\nAnd in fact, look talking about <\/p>\n

497
\n00:32:29,500 –> 00:32:33,500
\nhis sacrifice, it says he was
\nbruised for our iniquities, it <\/p>\n

498
\n00:32:33,500 –> 00:32:36,800
\npreheat pleased, the Lord to
\nbruise him to make him an <\/p>\n

499
\n00:32:36,800 –> 00:32:41,400
\noffering for sin.
\nAnd because of that, he will see<\/p>\n

500
\n00:32:41,400 –> 00:32:47,100
\nhis seed in Isaiah 53, verse 5
\nand verse 10. <\/p>\n

501
\n00:32:47,600 –> 00:32:51,000
\nSo again it seemed to me that in
\nGenesis 3, we’ve got all these <\/p>\n

502
\n00:32:51,000 –> 00:32:57,900
\nsort of From space to wounding
\ntwo bruising to sacrifice all <\/p>\n

503
\n00:32:57,900 –> 00:33:00,600
\nsort of.
\nThey’re pretty clearly in <\/p>\n

504
\n00:33:00,600 –> 00:33:07,100
\nGenesis 3:15 and in the whole
\nchapter effectively the other <\/p>\n

505
\n00:33:07,100 –> 00:33:08,900
\nbit.
\nThat was interesting, of course <\/p>\n

506
\n00:33:08,900 –> 00:33:13,900
\nin Genesis chapter 3 is that
\nthere was only one way into the <\/p>\n

507
\n00:33:13,900 –> 00:33:18,900
\ngarden and that way ultimately
\nwas protected by the Caribbean <\/p>\n

508
\n00:33:18,900 –> 00:33:24,300
\nso in Genesis Three verse 24.
\nSo he got drove out the man and <\/p>\n

509
\n00:33:24,300 –> 00:33:28,200
\nplaced at the east of the Garden
\nof Eden, cherubims, and a <\/p>\n

510
\n00:33:28,200 –> 00:33:33,200
\nflaming sword, which turned
\nevery way to keep the way to the<\/p>\n

511
\n00:33:33,200 –> 00:33:37,200
\ntree of life.
\nSo if you go back to those key <\/p>\n

512
\n00:33:37,200 –> 00:33:41,200
\nphrases that I was talking about
\nearlier, and bearing in mind, I <\/p>\n

513
\n00:33:41,200 –> 00:33:47,100
\njust got these videos from just,
\nyou know, sort of videos, just <\/p>\n

514
\n00:33:47,100 –> 00:33:49,500
\nabout the Fig and how the Fig
\ngot pollinated. <\/p>\n

515
\n00:33:49,500 –> 00:33:53,300
\nWe’ve got an enclosed.
\nGarden, only one very narrow <\/p>\n

516
\n00:33:53,300 –> 00:33:54,900
\nway.
\nIn the phrase. <\/p>\n

517
\n00:33:54,900 –> 00:33:58,500
\nUltimate sacrifice was used
\nwounded and weak reduce <\/p>\n

518
\n00:33:58,500 –> 00:34:03,200
\nDevotion, to Polynesian was used
\nthe promise of seeds and the <\/p>\n

519
\n00:34:03,200 –> 00:34:07,400
\nfuture being secured because of
\nthe work of this tiny <\/p>\n

520
\n00:34:07,400 –> 00:34:11,100
\ninsignificant little insect
\ncalled the Fig wasp. <\/p>\n

521
\n00:34:12,300 –> 00:34:14,900
\nSo I’m just going to play again
\nthat video that I played earlier<\/p>\n

522
\n00:34:14,900 –> 00:34:17,900
\njust to remind you of these
\nwords and listen to it again <\/p>\n

523
\n00:34:17,900 –> 00:34:22,199
\nit’s exactly the same video but
\nlisten to the words just so you <\/p>\n

524
\n00:34:22,199 –> 00:34:24,900
\nknow that I’m sort of not making
\nthese things up. <\/p>\n

525
\n00:34:28,900 –> 00:34:33,199
\nAnd so the pollinated Wast
\nreaches an immature fig, but her<\/p>\n

526
\n00:34:33,199 –> 00:34:36,100
\njourney is far from.
\nOver ahead lies, the greatest <\/p>\n

527
\n00:34:36,100 –> 00:34:39,699
\nchallenge of her brief life
\nclawing and squeezing her way <\/p>\n

528
\n00:34:39,699 –> 00:34:42,800
\nthrough the gate, her wings and
\nantennae are ripped from her. <\/p>\n

529
\n00:34:43,100 –> 00:34:47,100
\nShe makes the ultimate sacrifice
\nas the final push to enter burst<\/p>\n

530
\n00:34:47,100 –> 00:34:50,400
\nher abdomen.
\nIn an epic struggle, between <\/p>\n

531
\n00:34:50,400 –> 00:34:53,300
\nsacrifice and survival.
\nThe mother wasp crawls through <\/p>\n

532
\n00:34:53,300 –> 00:34:56,000
\nthe narrow Labyrinth towards the
\ninner chamber. <\/p>\n

533
\n00:34:56,400 –> 00:35:00,100
\nShe is wounded and week airing
\nonly her eggs in the pollen gift<\/p>\n

534
\n00:35:00,100 –> 00:35:03,400
\nfrom the former fake.
\nIf the WASP fails to pollinate <\/p>\n

535
\n00:35:03,400 –> 00:35:07,500
\nthe flowers, No Seeds will ever
\ndevelop big fruits with no <\/p>\n

536
\n00:35:07,500 –> 00:35:10,600
\nfuture are costly to the tree.
\nSo they will not receive an <\/p>\n

537
\n00:35:10,600 –> 00:35:14,400
\ninflow of nutrient.
\nIf the WASP does not pollinate <\/p>\n

538
\n00:35:14,500 –> 00:35:18,600
\nthe entire fake may be aborted.
\nHowever, if she devotes herself <\/p>\n

539
\n00:35:18,600 –> 00:35:22,500
\nto Pollination as well as laying
\neggs Ginger’s, the Fig will hold<\/p>\n

540
\n00:35:22,500 –> 00:35:25,400
\nthe promise of seeds.
\nThe tree will pump sugars and <\/p>\n

541
\n00:35:25,400 –> 00:35:28,700
\nnutrients into the fake,
\nsecuring the future of seeds and<\/p>\n

542
\n00:35:28,700 –> 00:35:30,800
\nlarvae.
\nLike, when they mature and <\/p>\n

543
\n00:35:30,800 –> 00:35:34,900
\nleave, the Fig will ripen thus
\ncompleting the cycle of mutual, <\/p>\n

544
\n00:35:34,900 –> 00:35:38,500
\nand he had all of those phrases.
\nSo, I now come back to the <\/p>\n

545
\n00:35:38,500 –> 00:35:42,800
\nGarden of Eden and something
\nstruck me. <\/p>\n

546
\n00:35:42,800 –> 00:35:45,800
\nAs I was staring at this picture
\nbecause of course, in the center<\/p>\n

547
\n00:35:45,800 –> 00:35:48,600
\nof the garden was the tree of
\nknowledge. <\/p>\n

548
\n00:35:48,800 –> 00:35:52,400
\nEach of Good and Evil.
\nAnd it suddenly occurred to me <\/p>\n

549
\n00:35:52,700 –> 00:35:55,000
\nthat this tree of knowledge of
\nGood and Evil. <\/p>\n

550
\n00:35:55,500 –> 00:36:00,900
\nI actually know truly truly
\nbelieve is a fig tree and I’m <\/p>\n

551
\n00:36:00,900 –> 00:36:03,400
\ngoing to prove to you as best as
\nI can. <\/p>\n

552
\n00:36:03,400 –> 00:36:06,800
\nThat without any, I put question
\nmarks there because they were <\/p>\n

553
\n00:36:06,800 –> 00:36:10,200
\nquestion marks to start with.
\nBut I’m going to do my best in <\/p>\n

554
\n00:36:10,200 –> 00:36:13,700
\nthe last 10 or 15 minutes to
\nprove to you beyond all <\/p>\n

555
\n00:36:13,700 –> 00:36:17,000
\nreasonable doubt that the tree
\nof knowledge of Good and Evil <\/p>\n

556
\n00:36:17,000 –> 00:36:21,900
\nitself was The Fig Tree a fig
\ntree, just the normal fig tree, <\/p>\n

557
\n00:36:21,900 –> 00:36:26,200
\nlike we’ve got fig trees right
\nnow and we’ve got a huge clue <\/p>\n

558
\n00:36:26,200 –> 00:36:29,300
\nthat it was the victory that God
\ngives us in the fact that, of <\/p>\n

559
\n00:36:29,300 –> 00:36:33,200
\ncourse, as soon as they ate from
\nthe fruit, their eyes were <\/p>\n

560
\n00:36:33,200 –> 00:36:36,600
\nopened.
\nAnd God doesn’t say by the way <\/p>\n

561
\n00:36:37,000 –> 00:36:40,900
\nthat they went and found the Fig
\nTree and took its leaves. <\/p>\n

562
\n00:36:40,900 –> 00:36:45,600
\nYou notice it just says that
\nthey sewed fig leaves and <\/p>\n

563
\n00:36:45,900 –> 00:36:48,500
\nreading some stuff from some
\nrabbis on. <\/p>\n

564
\n00:36:48,700 –> 00:36:53,600
\nThis subject, they say from a
\nhebraic point of view, God would<\/p>\n

565
\n00:36:53,600 –> 00:36:57,200
\nhave mentioned the fact that
\nthey had gone to another tree <\/p>\n

566
\n00:36:57,200 –> 00:37:00,300
\nbecause the last tree that was
\nspoken of was the tree of <\/p>\n

567
\n00:37:00,300 –> 00:37:03,800
\nknowledge of Good and Evil.
\nAnd the way Hebrew works is that<\/p>\n

568
\n00:37:03,800 –> 00:37:05,800
\nyou wouldn’t, they’re
\nnecessarily just say they’ve <\/p>\n

569
\n00:37:05,800 –> 00:37:10,200
\ntaken fig leaves without it
\nautomatically as potentially <\/p>\n

570
\n00:37:10,200 –> 00:37:13,300
\nassociating itself back to the
\ntree. <\/p>\n

571
\n00:37:13,300 –> 00:37:17,000
\nThat had just previously been
\nmentioned the way Hebrew would <\/p>\n

572
\n00:37:17,000 –> 00:37:20,700
\nnormally work and even in our
\nShe would say there’s the tree <\/p>\n

573
\n00:37:20,700 –> 00:37:23,800
\nof knowledge of Good and Evil
\nand they went and found the Fig <\/p>\n

574
\n00:37:23,800 –> 00:37:28,200
\nTree and took the leaves their
\nof, or something like that, but <\/p>\n

575
\n00:37:28,200 –> 00:37:31,300
\nit doesn’t do that and it’s
\nalmost a clue. <\/p>\n

576
\n00:37:31,300 –> 00:37:33,800
\nTherefore, I mean, you imagine
\nright. <\/p>\n

577
\n00:37:34,300 –> 00:37:38,300
\nAdam and Eve have just eaten of
\nthe fruits and they saw, they <\/p>\n

578
\n00:37:38,300 –> 00:37:42,000
\nwere naked.
\nDo we honestly imagine that <\/p>\n

579
\n00:37:42,000 –> 00:37:45,500
\nthey’re then going to start
\nwalking around as ashamed as <\/p>\n

580
\n00:37:45,500 –> 00:37:50,300
\nthey are looking for a tree?
\nFree to cover themselves with <\/p>\n

581
\n00:37:50,300 –> 00:37:52,600
\nleaves.
\nAnd the answer is, well, they <\/p>\n

582
\n00:37:52,600 –> 00:37:56,600
\nwouldn’t, in fact, the leaves of
\nthe Fig Tree, a very rough and <\/p>\n

583
\n00:37:56,600 –> 00:37:59,300
\nvery cause then they’re probably
\nthe last leaves that you would <\/p>\n

584
\n00:37:59,300 –> 00:38:02,500
\nnormally pick to rub against
\nyour skin. <\/p>\n

585
\n00:38:02,500 –> 00:38:06,400
\nThey’re very unpleasant to the
\ntouch and it’s far more likely <\/p>\n

586
\n00:38:06,400 –> 00:38:08,800
\nthere.
\nFor the very first thing that <\/p>\n

587
\n00:38:08,800 –> 00:38:11,800
\nthey did was grab the leaves
\nthat were right next to them. <\/p>\n

588
\n00:38:12,400 –> 00:38:15,100
\nAnd I don’t think there are lots
\nof other trees, very close fire,<\/p>\n

589
\n00:38:15,100 –> 00:38:17,500
\nthink that, you know, the tree
\nof life and the tree of <\/p>\n

590
\n00:38:17,500 –> 00:38:19,700
\nknowledge of Good and Evil,
\nwhich In the center of the <\/p>\n

591
\n00:38:19,700 –> 00:38:23,200
\ngarden would have been
\ndistinguishable and not just in <\/p>\n

592
\n00:38:23,200 –> 00:38:26,800
\nlike a forest and so on sort of
\npacked together with other <\/p>\n

593
\n00:38:26,800 –> 00:38:29,700
\ntrees.
\nSo it’s, it’s almost <\/p>\n

594
\n00:38:29,900 –> 00:38:32,700
\nunbelievable to think that they
\nwandered around the garden to <\/p>\n

595
\n00:38:32,700 –> 00:38:35,900
\ntry and find some very rough
\ncourse, leaves to try and Stitch<\/p>\n

596
\n00:38:35,900 –> 00:38:38,800
\ntogether.
\nIt seems much more likely that <\/p>\n

597
\n00:38:38,800 –> 00:38:44,900
\nthey did do exactly that.
\nNow, supposing there for the Fig<\/p>\n

598
\n00:38:44,900 –> 00:38:48,100
\nTree is the tree of knowledge of
\nGood and Evil. <\/p>\n

599
\n00:38:49,000 –> 00:38:54,800
\nSuddenly, this makes this whole
\nwasp situation pretty astounding<\/p>\n

600
\n00:38:55,100 –> 00:39:00,200
\nbecause if the Fig was the
\nforbidden fruit effectively, <\/p>\n

601
\n00:39:00,800 –> 00:39:02,900
\nthen they both ate from it,
\ndidn’t they? <\/p>\n

602
\n00:39:02,900 –> 00:39:09,400
\nThey both ate of the the thing
\nthat means of course they were <\/p>\n

603
\n00:39:09,500 –> 00:39:15,000
\neating a fruit that had got
\nevery single part of symbology <\/p>\n

604
\n00:39:15,000 –> 00:39:21,800
\nfor salvation built into it.
\nJesus, we know it’s the one and <\/p>\n

605
\n00:39:21,800 –> 00:39:28,200
\nonly way that we can be saved.
\nJesus was wounded terribly? <\/p>\n

606
\n00:39:28,500 –> 00:39:32,800
\nJust like the Fig wasp was
\nwounded, Jesus offered himself <\/p>\n

607
\n00:39:32,800 –> 00:39:37,300
\nas a sacrifice just as the Fig
\nwasp offers itself as a <\/p>\n

608
\n00:39:37,300 –> 00:39:42,900
\nsacrifice, Jesus devoted himself
\nto God just as the think was, <\/p>\n

609
\n00:39:42,900 –> 00:39:46,400
\nwe’re told is devoted to this
\none, cause they don’t live <\/p>\n

610
\n00:39:46,400 –> 00:39:49,700
\nanother life, you know, the Fig
\nwasp doesn’t have a A lovely <\/p>\n

611
\n00:39:49,700 –> 00:39:54,800
\ntime flying around it just goes
\nstraight and does this one sole <\/p>\n

612
\n00:39:54,800 –> 00:40:00,800
\npurpose?
\nJesus created, of course, future<\/p>\n

613
\n00:40:00,800 –> 00:40:04,000
\nseeds.
\nHe guaranteed future seeds by <\/p>\n

614
\n00:40:04,300 –> 00:40:11,100
\nhis work and Jesus thereby
\nthrough his work just as the Fig<\/p>\n

615
\n00:40:11,100 –> 00:40:14,500
\nwasp guaranteed, the future of
\nthe fruit. <\/p>\n

616
\n00:40:14,800 –> 00:40:18,800
\nSo Jesus has guaranteed us a
\nfuture. <\/p>\n

617
\n00:40:19,000 –> 00:40:22,800
\nUr life as well.
\nAnd what was blowing my mind as <\/p>\n

618
\n00:40:22,800 –> 00:40:27,300
\nI was doing this for thinking
\nthe very thing that God had got <\/p>\n

619
\n00:40:27,300 –> 00:40:32,600
\nas a test for them, had got the
\nsolution to their problem if <\/p>\n

620
\n00:40:32,600 –> 00:40:38,400
\nthey failed.
\nI mean, how amazing is that? <\/p>\n

621
\n00:40:40,000 –> 00:40:45,300
\nThe very symbolic solution for
\nthem, if they failed the test <\/p>\n

622
\n00:40:45,300 –> 00:40:49,200
\nwhich God, of course, knew they
\nwould was actually planned in <\/p>\n

623
\n00:40:49,200 –> 00:40:51,600
\nthe very fruit that they were
\neating. <\/p>\n

624
\n00:40:52,600 –> 00:40:57,700
\nI mean II just find that utterly
\nutterly astounding and to be <\/p>\n

625
\n00:40:57,700 –> 00:40:59,500
\nhonest.
\nSo did the kids, I’ve been <\/p>\n

626
\n00:40:59,900 –> 00:41:03,900
\ninundated with emails from from
\nthe kids up to this saying, we <\/p>\n

627
\n00:41:03,900 –> 00:41:09,700
\nit’s just amazing now.
\nHe is another thing because I <\/p>\n

628
\n00:41:09,700 –> 00:41:13,200
\nthen started thinking, if this
\nis true surely there’s going to <\/p>\n

629
\n00:41:13,200 –> 00:41:17,800
\nbe some references in the Bible
\nto it and look at this, right? <\/p>\n

630
\n00:41:18,000 –> 00:41:20,900
\nSo I’m saying to the tree of
\nknowledge of Good and Evil is a <\/p>\n

631
\n00:41:20,908 –> 00:41:26,700
\nfig tree and lo and behold in
\nJeremiah chapter, 24, verses 2 <\/p>\n

632
\n00:41:26,700 –> 00:41:28,400
\nand 3, which have words that we
\nknow. <\/p>\n

633
\n00:41:28,400 –> 00:41:33,900
\nWell, it says, talking about fix
\nthat one basket, had very good <\/p>\n

634
\n00:41:33,900 –> 00:41:35,900
\nfigs.
\nEven like figs that our first <\/p>\n

635
\n00:41:35,900 –> 00:41:39,900
\ntribe and the other basket had
\nvery Naughty figs and that word <\/p>\n

636
\n00:41:39,900 –> 00:41:43,200
\nnaughty is exactly the same word
\nas evil for the tree of <\/p>\n

637
\n00:41:43,200 –> 00:41:46,800
\nknowledge of Good and Evil.
\nAnd these evil things were so <\/p>\n

638
\n00:41:47,000 –> 00:41:50,500
\nbad that they couldn’t be eaten.
\nThey were so evil. <\/p>\n

639
\n00:41:50,800 –> 00:41:53,400
\nThey could not be eaten because
\nthey were so evil. <\/p>\n

640
\n00:41:53,700 –> 00:41:57,900
\nThen the Lord said unto me.
\nWhat’s the Astana Jeremiah? <\/p>\n

641
\n00:41:58,200 –> 00:42:03,700
\nAnd I said fix the good things,
\nvery good and the evil, very <\/p>\n

642
\n00:42:03,700 –> 00:42:06,900
\nevil that they cannot be eaten.
\nThey are so evil. <\/p>\n

643
\n00:42:07,700 –> 00:42:13,600
\nSo here we’ve got a clear
\nreference to figs being related <\/p>\n

644
\n00:42:14,000 –> 00:42:18,600
\nto Good and Evil, which is
\nexactly the point of the tree of<\/p>\n

645
\n00:42:18,600 –> 00:42:22,300
\nknowledge of Good and Evil.
\nThere’s good Phoenix and evil <\/p>\n

646
\n00:42:22,300 –> 00:42:24,900
\nfixed.
\nSo then I started wondering well<\/p>\n

647
\n00:42:24,900 –> 00:42:29,400
\nwhat makes a fig evil, you know?
\nI can understand eating a nice <\/p>\n

648
\n00:42:29,400 –> 00:42:34,700
\nfig but what makes an evil fig
\nand this also gets extremely <\/p>\n

649
\n00:42:34,700 –> 00:42:38,300
\ninteresting because what I
\nhaven’t told you so far Is that <\/p>\n

650
\n00:42:38,300 –> 00:42:44,400
\nthere are two types of fix.
\nThere is a female fig and a male<\/p>\n

651
\n00:42:44,400 –> 00:42:46,300
\nfigure.
\nAnd this also is very, very, <\/p>\n

652
\n00:42:46,300 –> 00:42:51,900
\nvery unusual in the fruit world.
\nThere’s male figs and female fix<\/p>\n

653
\n00:42:52,500 –> 00:42:58,700
\nand we cannot eat male figs.
\nAll male figs are inedible. <\/p>\n

654
\n00:42:58,700 –> 00:43:02,600
\nYou can’t eat them.
\nAnd what the reason is, is that <\/p>\n

655
\n00:43:02,600 –> 00:43:09,600
\nwhen a fig wasp goes into a male
\nfig, it is able to It’s own eggs<\/p>\n

656
\n00:43:09,600 –> 00:43:14,600
\ninside that inside the male fig,
\nwhen it goes inside a female <\/p>\n

657
\n00:43:14,600 –> 00:43:19,900
\nfigure, it cannot lay its eggs.
\nNow, the problem of a fig wasps <\/p>\n

658
\n00:43:19,900 –> 00:43:24,400
\nplaying its own eggs inside and
\nmale fig is as follows, watch <\/p>\n

659
\n00:43:24,400 –> 00:43:29,100
\nthe screen and watch this fig
\nand what’s inside it. <\/p>\n

660
\n00:43:40,200 –> 00:43:47,300
\nYeah, and then going to be 13.
\nOkay, fine. <\/p>\n

661
\n00:43:47,300 –> 00:43:50,500
\nEating ones and soul egg, big
\nones. <\/p>\n

662
\n00:43:50,500 –> 00:43:58,800
\nBut I don’t want to be back.
\nSo all male figs are inedible <\/p>\n

663
\n00:43:58,800 –> 00:44:03,400
\nand I and these are evil fix.
\nWe can’t eat them. <\/p>\n

664
\n00:44:03,400 –> 00:44:07,000
\nThey’re no good for us, they’re
\nnot tasty at all. <\/p>\n

665
\n00:44:07,100 –> 00:44:13,200
\nAnd the other type of evil fig
\nare unpolished, nated, female <\/p>\n

666
\n00:44:13,200 –> 00:44:18,200
\nfix, because some things grow
\nand they’re not pollinated. <\/p>\n

667
\n00:44:18,500 –> 00:44:24,400
\nAnd if the, if the figure is not
\npollinated by the Fig wasp as <\/p>\n

668
\n00:44:24,400 –> 00:44:27,900
\nyou saw in the video, the tree
\nstops Eating rat individual <\/p>\n

669
\n00:44:27,900 –> 00:44:31,900
\nfigure, it cuts off nutrition
\nand because it cuts off <\/p>\n

670
\n00:44:31,900 –> 00:44:34,700
\nnutrition.
\nThen it falls to the ground and <\/p>\n

671
\n00:44:34,700 –> 00:44:37,400
\nit goes rotten.
\nSo, um, pollinated. <\/p>\n

672
\n00:44:37,400 –> 00:44:42,800
\nFemale figs are also I would
\nsuggest evil in God’s language. <\/p>\n

673
\n00:44:42,900 –> 00:44:46,500
\nThe other point is as well that
\nif you, if you leave fixed too <\/p>\n

674
\n00:44:46,500 –> 00:44:51,300
\nlong, they actually are only
\nfresh for seven days after seven<\/p>\n

675
\n00:44:51,300 –> 00:44:52,700
\ndays.
\nYou can’t eat them. <\/p>\n

676
\n00:44:52,700 –> 00:44:54,600
\nThey go off.
\nThey rot. <\/p>\n

677
\n00:44:54,600 –> 00:44:58,300
\nAnd that’s why you rarely you.
\nYou do see figs in in <\/p>\n

678
\n00:44:58,300 –> 00:45:01,400
\nsupermarkets, but they very,
\nvery expensive because the shelf<\/p>\n

679
\n00:45:01,400 –> 00:45:05,800
\nlife is very, very small.
\nSo, I’m just going to play you <\/p>\n

680
\n00:45:05,800 –> 00:45:10,100
\nanother quick video here, which
\nsort of again, encapsulates, a <\/p>\n

681
\n00:45:10,107 –> 00:45:20,800
\nlot of the things that we’ve
\nbeen talking about Hi, I’m <\/p>\n

682
\n00:45:20,800 –> 00:45:24,900
\nLauren and this is brainstuff
\nImagine for a minute that you’re<\/p>\n

683
\n00:45:24,900 –> 00:45:27,900
\na pregnant woman.
\nStill with me guys, okay? <\/p>\n

684
\n00:45:27,900 –> 00:45:31,000
\nNow in this scenario, the only
\nway you can give birth is if you<\/p>\n

685
\n00:45:31,000 –> 00:45:36,200
\ncrawl into a small cave made out
\nof chocolate and the tunnel to <\/p>\n

686
\n00:45:36,200 –> 00:45:39,600
\nthis cave is so cramped that the
\nonly way you can get through is <\/p>\n

687
\n00:45:39,600 –> 00:45:43,400
\nby cutting off.
\nYour own arms 127 Hours style, <\/p>\n

688
\n00:45:43,400 –> 00:45:46,200
\nbut once you’re in this cave,
\nthen you can actually give birth<\/p>\n

689
\n00:45:46,400 –> 00:45:50,100
\nand then die from either
\nexhaustion or Nation. <\/p>\n

690
\n00:45:50,200 –> 00:45:54,400
\nNow this all sounds pretty Grim,
\nas if giving birth wasn’t <\/p>\n

691
\n00:45:54,400 –> 00:45:58,400
\ndifficult enough, but what I
\njust described is the life cycle<\/p>\n

692
\n00:45:58,400 –> 00:46:02,000
\nof the Fig wasp their role in
\nthe pollination of pigs is <\/p>\n

693
\n00:46:02,000 –> 00:46:04,800
\ncrucial both to the propagation
\nof their species. <\/p>\n

694
\n00:46:04,900 –> 00:46:08,100
\nAnd to the survival of the fig
\ntrees, this Arrangement between <\/p>\n

695
\n00:46:08,100 –> 00:46:10,200
\nwasp and plant is called
\nmutualism. <\/p>\n

696
\n00:46:10,600 –> 00:46:13,000
\nSo you wouldn’t have figs and
\nvice versa. <\/p>\n

697
\n00:46:13,200 –> 00:46:16,500
\nAnd yes, this means that most of
\nthe figs we eat. <\/p>\n

698
\n00:46:16,500 –> 00:46:20,800
\nContain at least one dead wasp.
\nBut more on that later. <\/p>\n

699
\n00:46:20,800 –> 00:46:23,200
\nFirst, let’s talk about
\npollination. <\/p>\n

700
\n00:46:23,300 –> 00:46:26,500
\nThe Fig is technically, just a
\nflower with its petals folded <\/p>\n

701
\n00:46:26,500 –> 00:46:28,500
\ninside.
\nNow, there are male figs, which <\/p>\n

702
\n00:46:28,500 –> 00:46:32,600
\nare inedible and called, Capra,
\nfigs and female figs, which are <\/p>\n

703
\n00:46:32,600 –> 00:46:35,400
\nthe ones that we eat.
\nBut in order to create seeds, <\/p>\n

704
\n00:46:35,400 –> 00:46:38,600
\nand tasty tasty fruit, the
\nfemale figs need to receive some<\/p>\n

705
\n00:46:38,600 –> 00:46:42,400
\npollen from the male figs, since
\nthe figs reproductive bits are <\/p>\n

706
\n00:46:42,400 –> 00:46:46,600
\ntucked away inside though, wind
\nand bees can’t help the way they<\/p>\n

707
\n00:46:46,600 –> 00:46:48,700
\ndo with lots of other plants.
\nAnswer. <\/p>\n

708
\n00:46:48,700 –> 00:46:52,500
\nThe Fig wasp, For a dude, fig
\nplant to share its pollen, with <\/p>\n

709
\n00:46:52,500 –> 00:46:57,000
\na lady, fig plant, a female fig.
\nWasp needs to enter a male <\/p>\n

710
\n00:46:57,000 –> 00:46:58,800
\nfigure.
\nShe crawls through a narrow <\/p>\n

711
\n00:46:58,800 –> 00:47:00,800
\npassage in the Fig called the
\nOsteo. <\/p>\n

712
\n00:47:00,800 –> 00:47:03,600
\nIt’s so cramped that her wings
\nand antennae break off along the<\/p>\n

713
\n00:47:03,600 –> 00:47:05,500
\nway.
\nBut the messed-up thing here is <\/p>\n

714
\n00:47:05,500 –> 00:47:08,900
\nthat the lady fig wasp doesn’t
\nknow whether she’s entering a <\/p>\n

715
\n00:47:08,900 –> 00:47:13,900
\nmale Capra fig or a female fig
\nif it is, in fact, care for fig,<\/p>\n

716
\n00:47:13,900 –> 00:47:15,800
\nshe’ll find its male flower
\nparts. <\/p>\n

717
\n00:47:15,800 –> 00:47:19,400
\nPerfectly shaped for her to lay
\nher eggs into the eggs. <\/p>\n

718
\n00:47:19,600 –> 00:47:22,600
\nHatch into larvae and grow
\nwithin the figs petals. <\/p>\n

719
\n00:47:22,600 –> 00:47:25,800
\nThe male wasps hatch.
\nFirst and are born, blind and <\/p>\n

720
\n00:47:25,800 –> 00:47:29,000
\nflightless, they mate, with
\ntheir female counterparts, which<\/p>\n

721
\n00:47:29,400 –> 00:47:31,400
\nI guess.
\nThey are technically, brothers <\/p>\n

722
\n00:47:31,400 –> 00:47:33,700
\nand sisters wasps are basically
\nall targaryens. <\/p>\n

723
\n00:47:33,700 –> 00:47:35,600
\nIt’s fine.
\nAnd the male wasps will start <\/p>\n

724
\n00:47:35,600 –> 00:47:38,200
\neating and exit tunnel through
\nthe Fig. <\/p>\n

725
\n00:47:38,500 –> 00:47:42,200
\nThey can’t escape though, so
\nthey die inside. <\/p>\n

726
\n00:47:42,300 –> 00:47:45,200
\nBut the females collect, the
\nfigs pollen crawl out of the <\/p>\n

727
\n00:47:45,200 –> 00:47:48,000
\ntunnel that their brothers
\ncreated and fly away in search <\/p>\n

728
\n00:47:48,000 –> 00:47:52,000
\nof a new fig plant to lay.
\nO-negs in, but if a female wasp <\/p>\n

729
\n00:47:52,000 –> 00:47:54,800
\nenters a female figure, she
\nwon’t be able to lay her eggs <\/p>\n

730
\n00:47:54,800 –> 00:47:58,000
\nbecause of this long part of the
\nflower, called The Stylist. <\/p>\n

731
\n00:47:58,000 –> 00:48:02,800
\nShe’ll probably die of
\nloneliness and exhaustion, but <\/p>\n

732
\n00:48:02,800 –> 00:48:04,700
\nat least she’s delivered the
\npollen. <\/p>\n

733
\n00:48:04,900 –> 00:48:08,300
\nYeah.
\nAnd hey, good news for us and <\/p>\n

734
\n00:48:08,300 –> 00:48:12,000
\nenzyme inside the Fig called
\nvikon breaks down her corpse <\/p>\n

735
\n00:48:12,000 –> 00:48:15,800
\ninto protein.
\nSo it just ingests the dead wasp<\/p>\n

736
\n00:48:15,800 –> 00:48:18,500
\nand makes it part of the
\ndelicious ripened fruit for us <\/p>\n

737
\n00:48:18,500 –> 00:48:21,700
\nto eat.
\nJust so we’re clear those <\/p>\n

738
\n00:48:21,700 –> 00:48:24,000
\ncrunchy bits.
\nYou’re chewing in, figs are not <\/p>\n

739
\n00:48:24,000 –> 00:48:27,900
\nbits of dead wasp or larvae.
\nThey really are the figs seeds. <\/p>\n

740
\n00:48:28,200 –> 00:48:30,400
\nAnd anyway, you should probably
\nget used to the idea of <\/p>\n

741
\n00:48:30,400 –> 00:48:33,600
\noccasionally eating an insect by
\naccident, the FDA, considers <\/p>\n

742
\n00:48:33,600 –> 00:48:36,100
\ncertain amounts of insect
\ncontent in various foods, <\/p>\n

743
\n00:48:36,100 –> 00:48:40,200
\nnatural, and unavoidable and
\nit’s really not hazardous just <\/p>\n

744
\n00:48:40,400 –> 00:48:42,600
\ngrow.
\nSo there we go, right last <\/p>\n

745
\n00:48:42,600 –> 00:48:46,200
\ncouple of slides.
\nSo imagine the tree of knowledge<\/p>\n

746
\n00:48:46,200 –> 00:48:49,800
\nof Good and Evil is a fig tree
\nis a fit Tree. <\/p>\n

747
\n00:48:49,800 –> 00:48:53,800
\nAnd on that Victory, there are
\nfemale figs which are good. <\/p>\n

748
\n00:48:53,800 –> 00:48:56,700
\nAnd there are male figs that
\naren’t evil, right? <\/p>\n

749
\n00:48:56,700 –> 00:48:58,800
\nAnd I’ve depicted them.
\nThere is green and black. <\/p>\n

750
\n00:48:58,800 –> 00:49:03,300
\nHopefully, you can see that.
\nAnd the point is that, it’s only<\/p>\n

751
\n00:49:03,300 –> 00:49:07,600
\nthe female ones that are the
\nones that are good, are the ones<\/p>\n

752
\n00:49:07,600 –> 00:49:11,000
\nthat you can finally eat and a
\ngood for you right now. <\/p>\n

753
\n00:49:11,000 –> 00:49:16,500
\nWhat we’re staying there for is
\nthat the Fig wasp is going to go<\/p>\n

754
\n00:49:16,500 –> 00:49:21,900
\nin to a female fix.
\nSo, That we are then able to eat<\/p>\n

755
\n00:49:21,900 –> 00:49:25,600
\nit because it’s pollinated.
\nIt and the other point <\/p>\n

756
\n00:49:25,600 –> 00:49:30,600
\ntherefore, is that if Jesus is
\nsymbolic of the Fig wasp going <\/p>\n

757
\n00:49:30,600 –> 00:49:35,200
\ninto the good fruit, I said to
\nthe children and the youth <\/p>\n

758
\n00:49:35,200 –> 00:49:39,200
\nweekend, I use it that it’s a
\nfemale fig that’s good. <\/p>\n

759
\n00:49:39,200 –> 00:49:44,400
\nAnd a male fig that is bad and
\namazingly between them or they <\/p>\n

760
\n00:49:44,400 –> 00:49:48,600
\nworked out the answer.
\nAnd the answer is quite simply <\/p>\n

761
\n00:49:48,800 –> 00:49:54,700
\nthat if you To balance it, Jesus
\nis coming as the bridegroom to <\/p>\n

762
\n00:49:54,700 –> 00:49:59,100
\nmarry the bride.
\nAnd therefore we are symbolic of<\/p>\n

763
\n00:49:59,100 –> 00:50:03,100
\nfemales.
\nAll of us are symbolic of <\/p>\n

764
\n00:50:03,100 –> 00:50:07,400
\nfemales because we’re symbolic
\nof the bride, and it’s only the <\/p>\n

765
\n00:50:07,400 –> 00:50:11,300
\nfemale fruit that was good on
\nthis tree. <\/p>\n

766
\n00:50:11,900 –> 00:50:15,400
\nAnd, of course, as we’ve already
\nsaid, they can be fruit on the <\/p>\n

767
\n00:50:15,400 –> 00:50:21,800
\ntree that is female but is never
\npollinated by the Fig wasp and <\/p>\n

768
\n00:50:21,800 –> 00:50:24,900
\nthose fruit lose the nutrients
\nand drop to the ground. <\/p>\n

769
\n00:50:24,900 –> 00:50:29,800
\nSo some female figs also become
\nevil because I haven’t let <\/p>\n

770
\n00:50:29,800 –> 00:50:32,400
\nChrist effectively Into their
\nlives. <\/p>\n

771
\n00:50:32,400 –> 00:50:37,000
\nIt’s only the sacrifice of Jesus
\ninto our lives. <\/p>\n

772
\n00:50:37,200 –> 00:50:42,400
\nThat turns us into a fruit that
\nis edible and a fruit, that is <\/p>\n

773
\n00:50:42,400 –> 00:50:45,300
\ngood to eat.
\nNow, the last couple of points, <\/p>\n

774
\n00:50:45,300 –> 00:50:48,700
\nI just wanted to make was this
\nbecause what your mind I know is<\/p>\n

775
\n00:50:48,700 –> 00:50:52,900
\nsaying, is while surely to
\ngoodness, it can’t be the Fig <\/p>\n

776
\n00:50:52,900 –> 00:50:56,800
\nbecause it says that when the
\nwoman saw that the tree was good<\/p>\n

777
\n00:50:56,800 –> 00:51:00,200
\nfor food and was pleasant to the
\neyes and a tree to be desired <\/p>\n

778
\n00:51:00,700 –> 00:51:05,500
\nand is Is the Fig Tree any of
\nthose things you know, if I look<\/p>\n

779
\n00:51:05,500 –> 00:51:11,000
\nat that fig, well good for food,
\nsurely means something that is <\/p>\n

780
\n00:51:11,000 –> 00:51:14,600
\nBounty for with lots and lots
\nand lots and lots of food and <\/p>\n

781
\n00:51:14,600 –> 00:51:17,600
\nsurely.
\nThere are other fruit varieties <\/p>\n

782
\n00:51:17,600 –> 00:51:23,200
\nout there that look much better
\nfor food and surely if its <\/p>\n

783
\n00:51:23,200 –> 00:51:28,100
\npleasant to the eyes, it’s sort
\nof okay but it’s other fruit. <\/p>\n

784
\n00:51:28,100 –> 00:51:31,300
\nThat’s a lot more pleasant to
\nthe eyes than the fear. <\/p>\n

785
\n00:51:32,100 –> 00:51:35,600
\nAnd in terms of a tree to be
\ndesired, well, it’s sort of, <\/p>\n

786
\n00:51:35,600 –> 00:51:40,500
\nokay, but it’s there’s this
\ntrees that have far far better <\/p>\n

787
\n00:51:40,500 –> 00:51:44,800
\nand bigger and grander than
\never, the Fig Tree is, but you <\/p>\n

788
\n00:51:44,800 –> 00:51:48,700
\nknow, something to me this
\nactually makes it even more of a<\/p>\n

789
\n00:51:48,707 –> 00:51:51,300
\ncase for being the Fig Tree than
\nanything else. <\/p>\n

790
\n00:51:51,700 –> 00:51:55,800
\nBecause God hasn’t
\nover-engineered the Temptation, <\/p>\n

791
\n00:51:56,400 –> 00:52:00,600
\nhe hasn’t made something in the
\ncenter of the garden with fruit <\/p>\n

792
\n00:52:00,700 –> 00:52:03,100
\nalmost too.
\nTo die for something that was <\/p>\n

793
\n00:52:03,100 –> 00:52:07,400
\nspectacularly different and
\nbetter than all the other fruits<\/p>\n

794
\n00:52:07,400 –> 00:52:12,100
\nand a tree that was bigger and
\ngrander and and all the rest of <\/p>\n

795
\n00:52:12,100 –> 00:52:15,700
\nit, God almost downplayed the
\ntree in the middle of the <\/p>\n

796
\n00:52:15,700 –> 00:52:18,700
\ngarden.
\nThe Fig Tree was made to look <\/p>\n

797
\n00:52:18,700 –> 00:52:23,200
\nslightly, not a tree to be
\ntempted by. <\/p>\n

798
\n00:52:23,200 –> 00:52:27,100
\nIn fact, God, gave them every
\nother fruit that he’d made look,<\/p>\n

799
\n00:52:27,100 –> 00:52:29,200
\nprobably even better than the
\nFig Tree. <\/p>\n

800
\n00:52:29,800 –> 00:52:32,900
\nBut as with all things, Brothers
\nand sisters. <\/p>\n

801
\n00:52:32,900 –> 00:52:36,700
\nThe problem is this that if
\nwe’re told that we can’t have <\/p>\n

802
\n00:52:36,700 –> 00:52:41,300
\nsomething to us, it looks like a
\ndelicious cake, whatever it is. <\/p>\n

803
\n00:52:43,200 –> 00:52:46,400
\nIsn’t that true?
\nGod says you can’t have that. <\/p>\n

804
\n00:52:46,400 –> 00:52:49,200
\nWell it then becomes the one
\nthing that we do want and they <\/p>\n

805
\n00:52:49,200 –> 00:52:51,900
\nlooked at this fig tree into a,
\nwhy can’t I eat that? <\/p>\n

806
\n00:52:51,900 –> 00:52:53,800
\nAnd look at that fruit, it is
\ninteresting. <\/p>\n

807
\n00:52:53,800 –> 00:52:57,200
\nAnd look at the tree and look at
\nthe leaves and why can’t I eat <\/p>\n

808
\n00:52:57,200 –> 00:52:58,600
\nit?
\nAnd then the serpent gets <\/p>\n

809
\n00:52:58,600 –> 00:53:04,400
\ninvolved and suddenly we’ve got
\na problem and maybe, you know, a<\/p>\n

810
\n00:53:04,400 –> 00:53:09,700
\nlot of people don’t give a fig
\nabout figs, but my study of this<\/p>\n

811
\n00:53:09,700 –> 00:53:12,800
\nand this is only the beginning
\nbecause of caused it. <\/p>\n

812
\n00:53:13,000 –> 00:53:17,400
\nGoes on and on and on from here
\nand the other two talks do but <\/p>\n

813
\n00:53:17,400 –> 00:53:20,200
\nsuddenly perhaps we should give
\na fig about the fit because the <\/p>\n

814
\n00:53:20,200 –> 00:53:23,800
\nFig is the plan and purpose of
\nGod at the very, very beginning <\/p>\n

815
\n00:53:24,100 –> 00:53:27,400
\non the tree at the very very
\nbeginning and became, in fact, <\/p>\n

816
\n00:53:27,400 –> 00:53:32,200
\nthe test and in the in the in
\nthe in the subsequent tour. <\/p>\n

817
\n00:53:32,700 –> 00:53:37,000
\nIt shows how the Fig Tree became
\nsymbolic of Israel. <\/p>\n

818
\n00:53:37,500 –> 00:53:42,800
\nAnd Israel became the exact same
\ntest that they had. <\/p>\n

819
\n00:53:42,900 –> 00:53:47,400
\nIn the garden as well.
\nAnd that to, me also became even<\/p>\n

820
\n00:53:47,400 –> 00:53:52,100
\nmore incredible.
\nSo, the key lessons that I think<\/p>\n

821
\n00:53:52,100 –> 00:53:55,700
\nwe take personally from this
\nperhaps he’s, I mean one is just<\/p>\n

822
\n00:53:55,700 –> 00:54:00,000
\nhow amazing use God to have
\ndesign, the solution in the very<\/p>\n

823
\n00:54:00,000 –> 00:54:03,200
\nthing that was causing them to
\nsin. <\/p>\n

824
\n00:54:03,900 –> 00:54:09,100
\nBut we are also tempted to do
\nwrong, like, Adam and Eve, and <\/p>\n

825
\n00:54:09,100 –> 00:54:17,000
\nwe succumb to sin when we Do the
\nwrong thing and deserve death <\/p>\n

826
\n00:54:17,200 –> 00:54:21,400
\nbecause of it.
\nExactly like Adam and Eve but if<\/p>\n

827
\n00:54:21,400 –> 00:54:25,900
\nwe accept Christ into our lives
\nthen we can be saved. <\/p>\n

828
\n00:54:25,900 –> 00:54:30,700
\nWe have to let that fig wasp
\neffectively into our lives. <\/p>\n

829
\n00:54:30,900 –> 00:54:35,800
\nOtherwise we lose all of the
\ngoodness from the tree which is <\/p>\n

830
\n00:54:35,800 –> 00:54:39,200
\nsupplying energy to the fruit
\nand we will ultimately die <\/p>\n

831
\n00:54:40,400 –> 00:54:44,900
\nChrist willing sacrifice enables
\nus to To survive IEEE to be <\/p>\n

832
\n00:54:44,900 –> 00:54:48,200
\nforgiven.
\nHe turns us into something sweet<\/p>\n

833
\n00:54:48,200 –> 00:54:54,400
\nand wonderful for God, God in
\nturn, strengthens us and gives <\/p>\n

834
\n00:54:54,400 –> 00:54:57,400
\nus all we need.
\nThe tree is pumping, lots and <\/p>\n

835
\n00:54:57,408 –> 00:55:02,400
\nlots of goodness into the fruit
\nfor those that have let the Fig <\/p>\n

836
\n00:55:02,400 –> 00:55:06,400
\nwasp in effectively, Let Jesus
\ninto their lives and look <\/p>\n

837
\n00:55:06,400 –> 00:55:09,900
\nawesome ately.
\nAs we know we are going to be it<\/p>\n

838
\n00:55:09,900 –> 00:55:12,800
\nwill almost Go full cycle.
\nWon’t it that actually won? <\/p>\n

839
\n00:55:13,000 –> 00:55:18,300
\nWe will live in a New Garden of
\nEden on this Earth but the <\/p>\n

840
\n00:55:18,300 –> 00:55:22,100
\nultimate Garden of Eden won’t
\nhave a test that we can fail. <\/p>\n

841
\n00:55:22,500 –> 00:55:26,400
\nThe test has been overcome by
\nthe Fig wasp, in other words the<\/p>\n

842
\n00:55:26,400 –> 00:55:29,800
\nLord Jesus Christ and his
\nsacrifice. <\/p>\n
