Class 6 from this series was used in GCT Episode 200<\/p>\n
2
\n00:00:03,700 –> 00:00:06,800
\nmorning, as part of his
\nexaltation, by the Bob will <\/p>\n
3
\n00:00:06,800 –> 00:00:10,300
\naddress this topic.
\nLife is a temporary assignment. <\/p>\n
4
\n00:00:12,300 –> 00:00:15,400
\nMy beloved Brothers and Sisters
\nof the Lord Jesus Christ. <\/p>\n
5
\n00:00:16,800 –> 00:00:19,400
\nWe bring with us the loving
\ngreetings of our home. <\/p>\n
6
\n00:00:19,400 –> 00:00:24,400
\nEcclesia known as Verdugo Hills
\nin the city of Los Angeles, in <\/p>\n
7
\n00:00:24,400 –> 00:00:31,400
\nthe state of California.
\nWe love coming here, we’ve been <\/p>\n
8
\n00:00:31,400 –> 00:00:33,700
\nhere before and it’s wonderful
\nto see. <\/p>\n
9
\n00:00:33,700 –> 00:00:37,200
\nSo many of you again that we’ve
\ncome to know and love from <\/p>\n
10
\n00:00:37,200 –> 00:00:40,500
\nprevious trips.
\nAnd then there’s the bonus of <\/p>\n
11
\n00:00:40,500 –> 00:00:43,400
\nmeeting new ones, which we have
\nnot met before. <\/p>\n
12
\n00:00:44,100 –> 00:00:47,400
\nAnd we’re so pleased that we can
\ncome together around this table <\/p>\n
13
\n00:00:48,100 –> 00:00:50,100
\nto remember our Lord this
\nmorning. <\/p>\n
14
\n00:00:51,700 –> 00:00:55,000
\nNow, our normal practice on
\nSunday mornings, if we’re <\/p>\n
15
\n00:00:55,000 –> 00:00:57,900
\nexhorting, is to base our
\ncomments on the day. <\/p>\n
16
\n00:00:58,200 –> 00:01:01,600
\nReadings and idat reading this
\nmorning was the last chapter of <\/p>\n
17
\n00:01:01,600 –> 00:01:04,599
\nActs and it’s filled with
\nexhortation. <\/p>\n
18
\n00:01:05,099 –> 00:01:08,600
\nSo, we had a temptation of
\nshould we stray? <\/p>\n
19
\n00:01:08,900 –> 00:01:13,100
\nBut then we were trying to do a
\nstudy on the way of life. <\/p>\n
20
\n00:01:13,100 –> 00:01:17,800
\nAnd so, it was decided that we
\nwould use one of those studies <\/p>\n
21
\n00:01:18,100 –> 00:01:22,100
\nand adapt it to the exhortation.
\nSo, we hope you’ll forgive us <\/p>\n
22
\n00:01:22,100 –> 00:01:25,700
\nfor, for not commenting on the
\nbook of Acts, because it’s not <\/p>\n
23
\n00:01:25,700 –> 00:01:28,500
\nbecause there’s not good,
\nexhortation are It’s just that <\/p>\n
24
\n00:01:28,500 –> 00:01:31,900
\nthere’s not enough time to do
\nthat Justice and cover the <\/p>\n
25
\n00:01:31,900 –> 00:01:35,200
\nsubject, which is part of the
\nway of life. <\/p>\n
26
\n00:01:36,400 –> 00:01:41,500
\nAnd that subject for this
\nmorning is life is a temporary <\/p>\n
27
\n00:01:42,300 –> 00:01:47,000
\nassignment.
\nIn our last class yesterday, <\/p>\n
28
\n00:01:47,400 –> 00:01:49,400
\nsome of you were here but not
\nall. <\/p>\n
29
\n00:01:49,800 –> 00:01:53,500
\nWe considered the way of life
\nwas a test. <\/p>\n
30
\n00:01:54,800 –> 00:01:59,900
\nAnd the way of life is a trust.
\nBut now we want to concentrate <\/p>\n
31
\n00:01:59,900 –> 00:02:07,600
\non another aspect of our walk in
\nthe truth that our way of life <\/p>\n
32
\n00:02:08,199 –> 00:02:11,700
\nis a temporary assignment.
\nNow, the Bible is full of <\/p>\n
33
\n00:02:11,700 –> 00:02:15,900
\nmetaphors that teach us about
\nhow brief how temporary how <\/p>\n
34
\n00:02:15,900 –> 00:02:22,500
\ntransient in nature is our life.
\nGod in the Bible describes Life <\/p>\n
35
\n00:02:22,500 –> 00:02:28,800
\nas a mist.
\nAs a fast runner as breath as a <\/p>\n
36
\n00:02:28,800 –> 00:02:34,200
\nwisp of smoke.
\nAnd as grass for as a man his <\/p>\n
37
\n00:02:34,200 –> 00:02:37,700
\ndays are like grass.
\nHe flourishes for like a flower <\/p>\n
38
\n00:02:37,700 –> 00:02:41,300
\nof the field.
\nIs David said in the Psalms <\/p>\n
39
\n00:02:41,600 –> 00:02:45,000
\nIsaiah said, who are you that
\nyou fear mortal man. <\/p>\n
40
\n00:02:45,000 –> 00:02:47,800
\nThe sons of men are just but
\ngrass. <\/p>\n
41
\n00:02:48,900 –> 00:02:50,800
\nAgain eyes.
\nThis is the voice that crying. <\/p>\n
42
\n00:02:50,800 –> 00:02:55,100
\nHe said, what shall I Cry?
\nYes, it wasn’t all flesh is <\/p>\n
43
\n00:02:55,100 –> 00:02:59,100
\ngrass and all the goodliness
\nthereof is as a flower of the <\/p>\n
44
\n00:02:59,100 –> 00:03:03,400
\nfield.
\nSo grass is not permanent, we <\/p>\n
45
\n00:03:03,400 –> 00:03:11,000
\nmow it and throw it away and our
\nlife is like grass, Psalms 78. <\/p>\n
46
\n00:03:11,100 –> 00:03:15,500
\nDavid says, for we remembered
\nthat they were but flesh a <\/p>\n
47
\n00:03:15,500 –> 00:03:20,200
\nbreath that passeth away and
\ndoes not come just a breath and <\/p>\n
48
\n00:03:20,200 –> 00:03:23,500
\nwe’re gone.
\nMan is like two vanities of <\/p>\n
49
\n00:03:23,500 –> 00:03:27,800
\nPsalm 144 his days are like a
\nshadow that passeth away. <\/p>\n
50
\n00:03:28,600 –> 00:03:31,800
\nAnd in Ecclesiastes Solomon
\nsaid, one generation passeth <\/p>\n
51
\n00:03:31,800 –> 00:03:35,300
\naway and another generation
\ncometh but the Earth abideth <\/p>\n
52
\n00:03:35,300 –> 00:03:38,000
\nforever.
\nIsaiah 29. <\/p>\n
53
\n00:03:38,000 –> 00:03:40,900
\nMoreover, the multitude of I
\nstrangers, shall be like the <\/p>\n
54
\n00:03:40,900 –> 00:03:44,800
\nsmall dust and the multitude of
\nthe terrible ones shall be as <\/p>\n
55
\n00:03:44,800 –> 00:03:49,300
\nchaff that passes the way who
\nsee us as therefore they shall <\/p>\n
56
\n00:03:49,300 –> 00:03:52,500
\nbe as the morning Cloud you know
\nCloud drifts across and it’s <\/p>\n
57
\n00:03:52,500 –> 00:03:56,400
\ngone as the early do that passes
\naway as chaff that is driven <\/p>\n
58
\n00:03:56,400 –> 00:03:59,900
\nwith the Whirlwind out of the
\nfloor and a smoke of a chimney. <\/p>\n
59
\n00:04:00,700 –> 00:04:03,900
\nNone of these things have any.
\nPermanence and so there’s two <\/p>\n
60
\n00:04:03,900 –> 00:04:08,000
\npoints, we want to stress as we.
\nCome here to meet our Lord in <\/p>\n
61
\n00:04:08,000 –> 00:04:11,500
\nthe number one, is that compared
\nto Eternity. <\/p>\n
62
\n00:04:12,800 –> 00:04:18,399
\nOur life is very short.
\nAnd number two, we won’t be here<\/p>\n
63
\n00:04:18,399 –> 00:04:21,500
\nlong as a mortal so don’t get
\ntoo attached to it. <\/p>\n
64
\n00:04:23,200 –> 00:04:29,500
\nWe need to ask God to help us
\nsee life as he sees it from <\/p>\n
65
\n00:04:29,500 –> 00:04:33,000
\nGod’s Viewpoint, try to put
\nyourself in his shoes so to <\/p>\n
66
\n00:04:33,000 –> 00:04:35,100
\nspeak which would know it cannot
\ndo. <\/p>\n
67
\n00:04:35,800 –> 00:04:37,900
\nBut let’s try.
\nHave you ever thought about <\/p>\n
68
\n00:04:37,900 –> 00:04:40,300
\nMethuselah?
\nWell of course, Methuselah’s <\/p>\n
69
\n00:04:40,300 –> 00:04:42,200
\nfamous.
\nHe lived longer than anybody who<\/p>\n
70
\n00:04:42,200 –> 00:04:48,200
\never lived 969 years important
\nMethuselah he never lived to see<\/p>\n
71
\n00:04:48,200 –> 00:04:52,300
\nMonday morning.
\nLet me explain that. <\/p>\n
72
\n00:04:52,900 –> 00:04:54,800
\nPeter tells us that a thousand
\nyears. <\/p>\n
73
\n00:04:54,800 –> 00:04:57,900
\nIt’s just like one day to God, a
\nthousand years are like one day.<\/p>\n
74
\n00:04:58,300 –> 00:05:03,200
\nNow Methuselah lived 969 years,
\nhe died before Monday morning. <\/p>\n
75
\n00:05:03,200 –> 00:05:06,200
\nIf he was born at 12:01 a.m.
\nSunday, Sunday morning, he <\/p>\n
76
\n00:05:06,200 –> 00:05:10,100
\ndidn’t live a whole day.
\nWe think that we’re have a long <\/p>\n
77
\n00:05:10,100 –> 00:05:14,800
\nlife, if we live 70 or 80, maybe
\n90 years, if you’re 15 years <\/p>\n
78
\n00:05:14,800 –> 00:05:18,100
\nold, you haven’t even lived. 22
\nminutes. <\/p>\n
79
\n00:05:19,400 –> 00:05:26,200
\nIf you’re 30, you’ve left less
\nthan 45 minutes and if you’re 62<\/p>\n
80
\n00:05:26,200 –> 00:05:29,300
\nyears old you’ve only lived an
\nhour and a half. <\/p>\n
81
\n00:05:30,500 –> 00:05:36,600
\nNobody in this room has lived to
\nsee 3 a.m. because 3 a.m. is <\/p>\n
82
\n00:05:36,600 –> 00:05:43,400
\n125.
\nYears basing a day to represent <\/p>\n
83
\n00:05:43,400 –> 00:05:47,600
\na thousand years so that tells
\nyou how temporary we are all <\/p>\n
84
\n00:05:47,600 –> 00:05:50,800
\nhere.
\nAnd so we need to pray the <\/p>\n
85
\n00:05:50,800 –> 00:05:53,500
\nprayer.
\nThat David prayed, he said, show<\/p>\n
86
\n00:05:53,500 –> 00:05:58,200
\nme O Lord.
\nMy life’s end and the number of <\/p>\n
87
\n00:05:58,200 –> 00:06:01,800
\nmy days let me know how fleeting
\nBeing is my life. <\/p>\n
88
\n00:06:03,100 –> 00:06:05,600
\nYou’re young, you’re full of
\nlife and you think you’re going <\/p>\n
89
\n00:06:05,600 –> 00:06:08,800
\nto live forever or you’re old
\nand you realize, you’re coming <\/p>\n
90
\n00:06:08,800 –> 00:06:12,100
\nto the end of your days and all
\nof us just like a puff of smoke <\/p>\n
91
\n00:06:12,500 –> 00:06:18,100
\nof poof we’re here and we gone.
\nAnd so the Bible is trying to <\/p>\n
92
\n00:06:18,108 –> 00:06:22,500
\nteach us that we live here only
\ntemporarily and we live. <\/p>\n
93
\n00:06:22,500 –> 00:06:26,500
\nHere is this we were a stranger.
\nWe don’t really belong to well, <\/p>\n
94
\n00:06:26,500 –> 00:06:29,300
\nI’m an Australian I was born and
\nbred here in Australia goody for<\/p>\n
95
\n00:06:29,300 –> 00:06:33,600
\nyou.
\nBut this is not your country. <\/p>\n
96
\n00:06:34,400 –> 00:06:37,400
\nYou want to be in the kingdom of
\nGod, more than anything else in <\/p>\n
97
\n00:06:37,400 –> 00:06:40,200
\nall the world.
\nAnd so where you live, it’s just<\/p>\n
98
\n00:06:40,200 –> 00:06:43,000
\nyour temporary Abode while
\nyou’re waiting for Jesus to <\/p>\n
99
\n00:06:43,000 –> 00:06:46,500
\ncome.
\nSo, scripture defines our life <\/p>\n
100
\n00:06:46,500 –> 00:06:51,900
\nas being an alien as being a
\npilgrim as being a foreigner as <\/p>\n
101
\n00:06:51,900 –> 00:06:55,500
\nbeing a stranger, as being a
\nvisitor, as being a traveler <\/p>\n
102
\n00:06:57,200 –> 00:07:00,800
\nDavid said in Psalm 119, I am a
\nstranger on Earth. <\/p>\n
103
\n00:07:02,000 –> 00:07:03,600
\nDo not hide your Commandments
\nfrom me. <\/p>\n
104
\n00:07:04,900 –> 00:07:08,600
\nPeter says, since you call on a
\nfather who judges each man’s <\/p>\n
105
\n00:07:08,600 –> 00:07:10,000
\nwork.
\nImpartially. <\/p>\n
106
\n00:07:10,300 –> 00:07:16,600
\nLive your lives as strangers
\nhere in reverence Paul tells us <\/p>\n
107
\n00:07:16,600 –> 00:07:18,400
\nthat our citizenship is in
\nheaven. <\/p>\n
108
\n00:07:19,500 –> 00:07:24,400
\nI came here with a passport, you
\ncannot travel Unita till you <\/p>\n
109
\n00:07:24,400 –> 00:07:26,200
\ncall straight without a pass.
\nNot only that. <\/p>\n
110
\n00:07:26,200 –> 00:07:29,800
\nYou have to get a Visa most
\ncountries, allow Americans to <\/p>\n
111
\n00:07:29,800 –> 00:07:33,000
\ncome without a Visa.
\nBut you don’t used to have to go<\/p>\n
112
\n00:07:33,000 –> 00:07:35,200
\ndown to the consulate to get it.
\nBut now, you do it, <\/p>\n
113
\n00:07:35,200 –> 00:07:38,700
\nelectronically, cost, $25.
\nYou can’t just come to <\/p>\n
114
\n00:07:38,700 –> 00:07:41,200
\nAustralia.
\nBecause I’m a visitor. <\/p>\n
115
\n00:07:41,200 –> 00:07:45,200
\nI’m not allowed to work here.
\nThey won’t let you, you want to <\/p>\n
116
\n00:07:45,200 –> 00:07:46,800
\nhire me.
\nYou can’t not that you wouldn’t <\/p>\n
117
\n00:07:46,800 –> 00:07:51,000
\nwant to anyway, but I am
\nstrictly a stranger and a <\/p>\n
118
\n00:07:51,000 –> 00:07:53,400
\nforeigner here in Australia, in
\nAustralia. <\/p>\n
119
\n00:07:54,600 –> 00:07:57,900
\nBut, you know, that’s not a sin,
\nI’m thankful for that. <\/p>\n
120
\n00:07:58,400 –> 00:08:01,700
\nAnd if you come to visit us in
\nAmerica, you will be a foreigner<\/p>\n
121
\n00:08:02,100 –> 00:08:06,500
\nand you won’t be extending by
\ndoing that either, because all <\/p>\n
122
\n00:08:06,500 –> 00:08:08,500
\nof us need to get this
\nmentality. <\/p>\n
123
\n00:08:08,500 –> 00:08:11,700
\nThat we don’t really belong
\nwhere we live, we live where we <\/p>\n
124
\n00:08:11,700 –> 00:08:16,400
\nlive, but we don’t belong, where
\nwe live, because our citizenship<\/p>\n
125
\n00:08:16,400 –> 00:08:20,100
\nis in heaven.
\nAnd we eagerly await a savior <\/p>\n
126
\n00:08:20,100 –> 00:08:23,100
\nfrom there.
\nThe Lord Jesus Christ that we’ve<\/p>\n
127
\n00:08:23,100 –> 00:08:24,700
\ncome to remember with these
\nemblems. <\/p>\n
128
\n00:08:26,400 –> 00:08:30,000
\nAnd so Paul tells us what we are
\nwhile we’re waiting. <\/p>\n
129
\n00:08:30,400 –> 00:08:36,400
\nThis is what you are.
\nWe are ambassadors for Christ as<\/p>\n
130
\n00:08:36,400 –> 00:08:38,200
\nthough God did beseech you to
\nus. <\/p>\n
131
\n00:08:38,200 –> 00:08:42,700
\nWe pray you in Christ’s stead be
\nye reconciled to God. <\/p>\n
132
\n00:08:43,700 –> 00:08:48,600
\nSo I’m looking at a crowd of
\nambassadors, for Christ. <\/p>\n
133
\n00:08:49,000 –> 00:08:51,400
\nYou’re not Australian, I’m not
\nAmerican. <\/p>\n
134
\n00:08:51,700 –> 00:08:56,100
\nWe are ambassadors for Christ,
\nLiving in Australia, or living. <\/p>\n
135
\n00:08:56,200 –> 00:08:59,100
\nIn America, or living in Canada,
\nor living in Atlanta, where <\/p>\n
136
\n00:08:59,100 –> 00:09:03,600
\nevery we might live, but we’re
\nall here temporarily. <\/p>\n
137
\n00:09:03,700 –> 00:09:06,800
\nDon’t get too comfortable with
\nthat you belong with you, where <\/p>\n
138
\n00:09:06,800 –> 00:09:10,400
\nyou’re living.
\nNow, just pretend that George <\/p>\n
139
\n00:09:10,400 –> 00:09:12,000
\nBush.
\nYou never heard of me. <\/p>\n
140
\n00:09:12,400 –> 00:09:14,800
\nHe came from the same town in
\nTexas that I used to live in. <\/p>\n
141
\n00:09:14,800 –> 00:09:17,300
\nBut I moved before he was even
\nborn. <\/p>\n
142
\n00:09:19,600 –> 00:09:22,700
\nIf he were to call me up and
\nsaid, Bob, we want to send you <\/p>\n
143
\n00:09:22,700 –> 00:09:26,000
\nto Australia as the Ambassador
\nfor the United States. <\/p>\n
144
\n00:09:26,700 –> 00:09:30,800
\nThat’s a very high position that
\nit’s an honor to be an <\/p>\n
145
\n00:09:30,800 –> 00:09:33,900
\nambassador in a another country
\nrepresenting your own. <\/p>\n
146
\n00:09:34,200 –> 00:09:37,400
\nAnd so, every country you have
\nambassadors all over the world, <\/p>\n
147
\n00:09:37,500 –> 00:09:40,500
\nour country has a bachelor’s all
\nover the world, but when you go <\/p>\n
148
\n00:09:40,500 –> 00:09:43,000
\nto, where you’re going to live,
\nwhere do you live, you live in <\/p>\n
149
\n00:09:43,000 –> 00:09:46,400
\nthe country to where you are
\nassigned as an ambassador. <\/p>\n
150
\n00:09:46,600 –> 00:09:49,200
\nBut do you belong there?
\nNo. <\/p>\n
151
\n00:09:49,800 –> 00:09:53,200
\nYou’re there temporarily soon as
\nwe get a new president, you’ll <\/p>\n
152
\n00:09:53,200 –> 00:09:55,900
\nbe gone.
\nThey’ll get a new Ambassador. <\/p>\n
153
\n00:09:56,700 –> 00:09:59,200
\nNow, when you get there, what do
\nyou do? <\/p>\n
154
\n00:09:59,200 –> 00:10:01,400
\nWell, you drive on the left side
\nof the road, if you’re in <\/p>\n
155
\n00:10:01,500 –> 00:10:05,300
\nAustralia, and if you became the
\nambassador of Australia, to <\/p>\n
156
\n00:10:05,300 –> 00:10:08,400
\nUnited States, you would drive
\non the right side of the road. <\/p>\n
157
\n00:10:09,200 –> 00:10:12,100
\nAnd if you were the ambassador
\nof the Australia to mosque to <\/p>\n
158
\n00:10:12,100 –> 00:10:15,200
\nRussia, in living in Moscow, you
\nwould try to learn a few words <\/p>\n
159
\n00:10:15,200 –> 00:10:19,400
\nof Russian and you would respect
\ntheir position their laws. <\/p>\n
160
\n00:10:19,600 –> 00:10:24,500
\nBut you would not get involved
\nin any of their politics. <\/p>\n
161
\n00:10:25,200 –> 00:10:29,200
\nYou don’t really belong there.
\nYou’re an ambassador from the <\/p>\n
162
\n00:10:29,200 –> 00:10:32,400
\ncountry that sent you to the
\ncountry, you’re living in and <\/p>\n
163
\n00:10:32,400 –> 00:10:36,700
\nthat’s our row right now.
\nBrothers and sisters, as we wait<\/p>\n
164
\n00:10:36,700 –> 00:10:39,300
\nfor Christ, you don’t really
\nbelong here. <\/p>\n
165
\n00:10:39,300 –> 00:10:42,600
\nLike, where you live here?
\nIt’s a nice place to live but <\/p>\n
166
\n00:10:42,600 –> 00:10:44,800
\ndon’t feel too comfortable that
\nwhat this is. <\/p>\n
167
\n00:10:45,000 –> 00:10:49,100
\nMy home, this is Mike my
\ncountry, we have a song over my <\/p>\n
168
\n00:10:49,100 –> 00:10:49,800
\ncountry.
\nTree. <\/p>\n
169
\n00:10:50,800 –> 00:10:53,900
\nPeter says I beseech you.
\nI’m pleading with you brother <\/p>\n
170
\n00:10:53,900 –> 00:10:57,300
\nand sister get this point.
\nThis is so important I beseech <\/p>\n
171
\n00:10:57,300 –> 00:11:00,600
\nyou as aliens.
\nSo you’re an alien. <\/p>\n
172
\n00:11:00,800 –> 00:11:03,000
\nI’m a live in Australia.
\nBorn on certain, you’re an <\/p>\n
173
\n00:11:03,000 –> 00:11:06,200
\nalien.
\nAnd an exile. <\/p>\n
174
\n00:11:06,900 –> 00:11:09,500
\nAnd you supposed to abstain from
\nthe passions of the flesh. <\/p>\n
175
\n00:11:09,500 –> 00:11:13,100
\nThat wage war against your soul.
\nNow, while you’re living, here <\/p>\n
176
\n00:11:13,100 –> 00:11:14,600
\nis an alien.
\nHow you’re going to behave? <\/p>\n
177
\n00:11:14,600 –> 00:11:18,700
\nWell, maintained Good Conduct
\namong the Gentile, you obey the <\/p>\n
178
\n00:11:18,700 –> 00:11:22,100
\nlaws in this country unless it
\nwas a law that was conflicting <\/p>\n
179
\n00:11:22,100 –> 00:11:26,500
\nwith the law of Christ.
\nYou you drive on their side of <\/p>\n
180
\n00:11:26,500 –> 00:11:29,100
\nthe road?
\nYou, you bathe are rules, you <\/p>\n
181
\n00:11:29,100 –> 00:11:33,600
\nrespectful of their government,
\nbut you don’t get involved in <\/p>\n
182
\n00:11:33,600 –> 00:11:36,600
\nanything they’re doing.
\nAnd that’s what we’re supposed <\/p>\n
183
\n00:11:36,600 –> 00:11:40,300
\nto be doing now.
\nBe subject for the Lord’s sake <\/p>\n
184
\n00:11:40,300 –> 00:11:43,800
\nto every Human Institution.
\nI’m just reading Peter for do <\/p>\n
185
\n00:11:43,800 –> 00:11:45,000
\nyou.
\nThese were words. <\/p>\n
186
\n00:11:45,000 –> 00:11:49,100
\nYou already know what Peter is
\nthat I want to stir up your pure<\/p>\n
187
\n00:11:49,100 –> 00:11:54,200
\nMinds by way of remembrance.
\nSo I didn’t come here to tell <\/p>\n
188
\n00:11:54,200 –> 00:11:56,100
\nyou something, you never heard
\nbefore. <\/p>\n
189
\n00:11:56,900 –> 00:12:02,600
\nWe’ve come here to just remind
\nyou Of some of you already knew <\/p>\n
190
\n00:12:03,400 –> 00:12:06,400
\nbut we all need to be reminded
\nof it in order to be more <\/p>\n
191
\n00:12:06,400 –> 00:12:11,400
\nfaithful in living it.
\nBecause our life in the truth is<\/p>\n
192
\n00:12:11,400 –> 00:12:16,000
\nnot something to talk about.
\nIt’s a way to live. <\/p>\n
193
\n00:12:16,900 –> 00:12:19,800
\nSo, be subject for the Lord’s
\nsake, to every Human <\/p>\n
194
\n00:12:19,800 –> 00:12:23,500
\nInstitution, whether it be to
\nthe emperor supreme, or to <\/p>\n
195
\n00:12:23,500 –> 00:12:26,500
\nGovernor’s is sent by him to
\npunish those who do wrong. <\/p>\n
196
\n00:12:27,000 –> 00:12:29,300
\nAnd to praise those who do right
\nfor it. <\/p>\n
197
\n00:12:29,300 –> 00:12:33,300
\nIs God’s will.
\nThat by doing right, you should <\/p>\n
198
\n00:12:33,300 –> 00:12:35,100
\nput to silence the ignorance of
\nfoolish men. <\/p>\n
199
\n00:12:36,500 –> 00:12:40,200
\nYou are going to live such a
\nsqueaky-clean life in Australia <\/p>\n
200
\n00:12:40,700 –> 00:12:42,500
\nthat nobody can point.
\nThe Vincent. <\/p>\n
201
\n00:12:42,500 –> 00:12:44,100
\nOh boy, that’s he’s a
\ntroublemaker. <\/p>\n
202
\n00:12:44,300 –> 00:12:50,100
\nShe’s a problem.
\nNo, you behave yourself where <\/p>\n
203
\n00:12:50,100 –> 00:12:53,700
\nyou live, but not because you
\nbelong there because you’re <\/p>\n
204
\n00:12:53,700 –> 00:12:55,700
\nrepresenting Christ wherever it
\nis. <\/p>\n
205
\n00:12:55,700 –> 00:13:00,300
\nYou’re living.
\nAnd that gives a different light<\/p>\n
206
\n00:13:00,300 –> 00:13:05,000
\non our activities in life
\nbecause our put to silence this <\/p>\n
207
\n00:13:05,000 –> 00:13:08,600
\nfoolishly these ignorance of
\nfoolish men. <\/p>\n
208
\n00:13:08,900 –> 00:13:13,500
\nThink about Daniel and me,
\nDaniel was involved, helping the<\/p>\n
209
\n00:13:13,500 –> 00:13:20,100
\nmedes and the Persians.
\nAnd he kept pure to the God and <\/p>\n
210
\n00:13:20,100 –> 00:13:22,700
\nif he had some enemies and he
\nsaid we got to get him. <\/p>\n
211
\n00:13:24,000 –> 00:13:27,500
\nWhat do you know about?
\nCan you dig up on Daniel? <\/p>\n
212
\n00:13:30,500 –> 00:13:33,100
\nOnly thing they could think of,
\nwas that he prayed. <\/p>\n
213
\n00:13:33,800 –> 00:13:38,100
\nI hope that your neighbors, the
\npeople that you work with. <\/p>\n
214
\n00:13:38,100 –> 00:13:44,200
\nAnd for The people you go to
\nschool with your teachers, <\/p>\n
215
\n00:13:45,300 –> 00:13:49,300
\neverybody that knows you cannot
\nfind anything bad about you <\/p>\n
216
\n00:13:49,300 –> 00:13:54,300
\nexcept that you worship God.
\nAnd so, you know, the end of the<\/p>\n
217
\n00:13:54,300 –> 00:13:57,600
\nstory ended up in the Lion’s Den
\nbecause he stood up for what he <\/p>\n
218
\n00:13:57,600 –> 00:14:00,900
\nbelieved was.
\nRight now, I have to confess <\/p>\n
219
\n00:14:00,900 –> 00:14:03,800
\nthat if I’d been Daniel I might
\nhave said, you know, this is <\/p>\n
220
\n00:14:03,800 –> 00:14:08,100
\nonly 30 days God you this, it
\nmay just temporary decree just <\/p>\n
221
\n00:14:08,100 –> 00:14:11,900
\nto get him 30 days.
\nSo for 30 days you know ones to <\/p>\n
222
\n00:14:12,800 –> 00:14:15,600
\napproach anybody except the king
\nwell that made the king feel <\/p>\n
223
\n00:14:15,600 –> 00:14:18,200
\npretty important.
\nYou know what a stupid rule at <\/p>\n
224
\n00:14:18,200 –> 00:14:21,000
\nwas?
\nI mean he bought this their line<\/p>\n
225
\n00:14:21,000 –> 00:14:27,000
\nHook Line & Sinker Love, Daniel.
\nHe was just duped by Daniel’s <\/p>\n
226
\n00:14:27,000 –> 00:14:31,700
\nimages to get him but if you’d
\nbeen Daniel and you had my kind <\/p>\n
227
\n00:14:31,700 –> 00:14:36,600
\nof mind, you say God, you
\nunderstand, it’s only 30 days. <\/p>\n
228
\n00:14:36,800 –> 00:14:40,800
\nNow I normally get down on my
\nknees and pray to you but your <\/p>\n
229
\n00:14:40,800 –> 00:14:43,700
\ntea when I’ll do God, just just
\nfor 30 days. <\/p>\n
230
\n00:14:43,700 –> 00:14:47,300
\nI’m going to just crawl in bed
\nand I’m going to close my eyes <\/p>\n
231
\n00:14:47,300 –> 00:14:49,100
\nand they’re going to look in and
\nthey’re going to look. <\/p>\n
232
\n00:14:49,200 –> 00:14:51,300
\nThey’ll think I’m asleep.
\nBut I’m awake. <\/p>\n
233
\n00:14:51,300 –> 00:14:54,500
\nI’m praying God, I’m just Not
\ngoing to do it on my knees. <\/p>\n
234
\n00:14:54,500 –> 00:14:56,600
\nLike I usually.
\nDo you understand got this for <\/p>\n
235
\n00:14:56,600 –> 00:14:57,600
\n30 days?
\nOkay. <\/p>\n
236
\n00:15:00,400 –> 00:15:05,000
\nDaniel didn’t do that, did he?
\nHe did what was right in spite <\/p>\n
237
\n00:15:05,000 –> 00:15:08,100
\nof their rules and that’s what
\nwe have to do, but aren’t you <\/p>\n
238
\n00:15:08,100 –> 00:15:11,600
\nthankful, you live in a country
\nwhere you’re not forced to do <\/p>\n
239
\n00:15:11,600 –> 00:15:13,800
\nthings against what God has
\ntaught you. <\/p>\n
240
\n00:15:14,400 –> 00:15:18,200
\nPerhaps only in this example of
\nvoting which I know you don’t do<\/p>\n
241
\n00:15:18,800 –> 00:15:22,600
\nbut which you’re commanded to do
\nby this country and I country <\/p>\n
242
\n00:15:22,600 –> 00:15:25,100
\nit’s not a law.
\nI don’t vote that. <\/p>\n
243
\n00:15:25,100 –> 00:15:28,100
\nI don’t bring it along, not
\ngoing, but if it was a law to <\/p>\n
244
\n00:15:28,100 –> 00:15:28,500
\nvote.
\nAye. <\/p>\n
245
\n00:15:28,700 –> 00:15:31,400
\nCan you break that long because
\nwe have to break the laws of <\/p>\n
246
\n00:15:31,400 –> 00:15:36,100
\nconflict with the laws of God,
\nbut we live in countries, which <\/p>\n
247
\n00:15:36,100 –> 00:15:40,300
\nallow us to worship God as we
\nsee fit. <\/p>\n
248
\n00:15:41,600 –> 00:15:45,900
\nBut God never said you could
\nworship me as you see, fit, you <\/p>\n
249
\n00:15:45,900 –> 00:15:48,700
\nhave to worship Him in spirit
\nand in truth, you’ve got to do <\/p>\n
250
\n00:15:48,700 –> 00:15:53,400
\nwhat he said, no matter where
\nyou live because you are his <\/p>\n
251
\n00:15:53,400 –> 00:15:56,400
\nAmbassador.
\nNow, in our country, we have a <\/p>\n
252
\n00:15:56,400 –> 00:15:58,900
\npaper.
\nIt’s revered by Americans called<\/p>\n
253
\n00:15:58,900 –> 00:16:02,100
\nthe Declaration of Independence.
\nI don’t know if you ever heard <\/p>\n
254
\n00:16:02,100 –> 00:16:05,500
\nof it or not, but it’s supposed
\nto Grant all Americans. <\/p>\n
255
\n00:16:05,500 –> 00:16:09,300
\nThe inalienable right to pursue,
\nhappiness. <\/p>\n
256
\n00:16:09,500 –> 00:16:11,200
\nI mean that’s built into the
\nConstitution. <\/p>\n
257
\n00:16:11,400 –> 00:16:14,700
\nSure you have the right to
\npursue happiness and Port. <\/p>\n
258
\n00:16:14,700 –> 00:16:17,300
\nI do we do it over there.
\nYou can on the freeways and are <\/p>\n
259
\n00:16:17,300 –> 00:16:22,500
\npursuing in every direction.
\nWhoo doesn’t say you have the <\/p>\n
260
\n00:16:22,500 –> 00:16:25,600
\nright to happiness.
\nIt has, you have the right to <\/p>\n
261
\n00:16:25,600 –> 00:16:29,700
\nchase it.
\nNow, one wise man who was an <\/p>\n
262
\n00:16:29,700 –> 00:16:33,200
\nAmerican said, the pursuit of
\nhappiness is a ridiculous <\/p>\n
263
\n00:16:33,200 –> 00:16:36,200
\nphrase.
\nIf you pursue happiness, you’ll <\/p>\n
264
\n00:16:36,200 –> 00:16:39,400
\nnever find it.
\nBut most people are not wise <\/p>\n
265
\n00:16:39,400 –> 00:16:42,600
\nenough to realize how foolish
\nthat statement is. <\/p>\n
266
\n00:16:43,100 –> 00:16:45,300
\nAnd so, what are they doing?
\nThey’re out chasing it, they get<\/p>\n
267
\n00:16:45,300 –> 00:16:47,300
\nup in the morning.
\nWe got 25 fat from happiness <\/p>\n
268
\n00:16:47,300 –> 00:16:51,500
\ntoday and the harder, you chase
\nit, that more elusive, It <\/p>\n
269
\n00:16:51,500 –> 00:16:58,400
\nbecomes you will never catch
\nHappiness by pursuing it, a <\/p>\n
270
\n00:16:58,408 –> 00:17:00,900
\nlittle story.
\nIt’s a silly story but it <\/p>\n
271
\n00:17:00,900 –> 00:17:07,099
\nteaches a lesson Jesus used lots
\nof stories to drive home <\/p>\n
272
\n00:17:07,099 –> 00:17:11,300
\nlessons.
\nThis is a story which although <\/p>\n
273
\n00:17:11,300 –> 00:17:15,300
\nyou know it’s far-fetched, the
\nlesson, it teaches you is worth <\/p>\n
274
\n00:17:15,300 –> 00:17:19,099
\nremembering.
\nAnd it has to do with two cats, <\/p>\n
275
\n00:17:20,099 –> 00:17:24,200
\nthere’s an alley behind this
\nhouse, and there’s a old Tomcat,<\/p>\n
276
\n00:17:24,400 –> 00:17:27,400
\nhe’s sitting up on the fence,
\njust sitting there, you know, <\/p>\n
277
\n00:17:27,400 –> 00:17:31,600
\npurring away and down in the
\nroad below. <\/p>\n
278
\n00:17:31,600 –> 00:17:35,900
\nHim is a young cat and this
\nyoung cat is full of vim and <\/p>\n
279
\n00:17:35,900 –> 00:17:38,700
\nvigor your war and this cat is
\nchasing his tail. <\/p>\n
280
\n00:17:38,700 –> 00:17:43,700
\nWe’ll just walk around around
\ngoing and they do cats is what <\/p>\n
281
\n00:17:43,700 –> 00:17:47,900
\nare you doing down there?
\nAnd the young cat being young, <\/p>\n
282
\n00:17:47,900 –> 00:17:51,900
\nyou know, young people know
\neverything I just graduated from<\/p>\n
283
\n00:17:51,900 –> 00:17:57,100
\ncat College.
\nAnd I learned in cat college <\/p>\n
284
\n00:17:57,100 –> 00:18:00,200
\nthat happiness is found in the
\ntail of the cat. <\/p>\n
285
\n00:18:01,500 –> 00:18:04,400
\nIf I can just catch my tail,
\nI’ll be happy. <\/p>\n
286
\n00:18:06,000 –> 00:18:09,800
\nAnd the whole cats as well.
\nI never got to go to college. <\/p>\n
287
\n00:18:09,800 –> 00:18:12,900
\nI just grew up in the back
\nalleys of Sydney. <\/p>\n
288
\n00:18:14,500 –> 00:18:19,700
\nBut I also know that happiness
\nis found in the tail of the cat.<\/p>\n
289
\n00:18:21,600 –> 00:18:25,500
\nBut I have also learned that if
\nI will just go straight forward <\/p>\n
290
\n00:18:25,500 –> 00:18:29,000
\nand do what’s right?
\nHappiness, will follow me all <\/p>\n
291
\n00:18:29,000 –> 00:18:35,600
\nthe days of my life.
\nAnd so there’s an old cat that <\/p>\n
292
\n00:18:35,600 –> 00:18:39,600
\nhad more wisdom than the young
\ncat who just graduated from cat <\/p>\n
293
\n00:18:39,600 –> 00:18:43,400
\nCollege.
\nAnd I hope that we learned the <\/p>\n
294
\n00:18:43,400 –> 00:18:48,100
\nlesson that you don’t get
\nHappiness by pursuing it, you <\/p>\n
295
\n00:18:48,100 –> 00:18:54,200
\nget Happy by going forward doing
\nwhat’s right and happiness? <\/p>\n
296
\n00:18:54,200 –> 00:18:58,100
\nJust comes as a by-product.
\nThe people who want to be happy <\/p>\n
297
\n00:18:58,100 –> 00:19:02,000
\nand say, oh, I want to be happy
\nor the most miserable people <\/p>\n
298
\n00:19:02,000 –> 00:19:06,200
\naround and Solomon.
\nWise, King Solomon. <\/p>\n
299
\n00:19:06,200 –> 00:19:08,600
\nHe says, I decided to enjoy
\nmyself and find out what <\/p>\n
300
\n00:19:08,600 –> 00:19:10,900
\nhappiness in.
\nI’m gonna he hadn’t heard the <\/p>\n
301
\n00:19:10,900 –> 00:19:14,800
\ncat story.
\nHe’s I decided I found it <\/p>\n
302
\n00:19:15,400 –> 00:19:18,100
\noutside to enjoy myself.
\nTo I found that whatever I did <\/p>\n
303
\n00:19:18,100 –> 00:19:20,800
\nwas useless.
\nI got whatever I want and I did <\/p>\n
304
\n00:19:20,800 –> 00:19:22,300
\nI did anything that made me
\nhappy. <\/p>\n
305
\n00:19:22,900 –> 00:19:27,900
\nHe could, he was a king.
\nBut most of all, I enjoyed my <\/p>\n
306
\n00:19:27,900 –> 00:19:31,300
\nwork, then I thought about
\neverything that I had done, <\/p>\n
307
\n00:19:31,600 –> 00:19:35,200
\nincluding the hard work, was
\nsimply chasing the wind. <\/p>\n
308
\n00:19:35,700 –> 00:19:40,700
\nNothing on Earth is worth the
\ntrouble in of modern brands are,<\/p>\n
309
\n00:19:40,700 –> 00:19:43,200
\nyou know, on the King James is
\nVanity of vanities. <\/p>\n
310
\n00:19:43,200 –> 00:19:47,600
\nAll is Vanity.
\nSomeone found out that living a <\/p>\n
311
\n00:19:47,600 –> 00:19:50,800
\nlife of self and dud.
\nIndulgence was empty and not <\/p>\n
312
\n00:19:50,800 –> 00:19:55,400
\nsatisfying that all he had tried
\nit, it did not work, he could <\/p>\n
313
\n00:19:55,400 –> 00:19:58,800
\nnot get happy trying to be
\nhappy, he was under. <\/p>\n
314
\n00:19:59,000 –> 00:20:02,100
\nSo what does it what do you do?
\nWhat does it take for you to be <\/p>\n
315
\n00:20:02,100 –> 00:20:04,700
\nhappy?
\nWell if we’re wise were <\/p>\n
316
\n00:20:04,700 –> 00:20:08,700
\nambassadors for Christ, we
\nlisten to the Bible, the Bible <\/p>\n
317
\n00:20:08,700 –> 00:20:12,400
\ngot to tell us the answer.
\nHappy is the man who has the <\/p>\n
318
\n00:20:12,400 –> 00:20:17,700
\nLord for his God and Austin him
\nhappiness comes from finding <\/p>\n
319
\n00:20:17,700 –> 00:20:23,100
\nwisdom, happiness comes from
\ndoing God’s, will happiness, <\/p>\n
320
\n00:20:23,100 –> 00:20:28,400
\ncomes from caring and helping
\nothers along the way. <\/p>\n
321
\n00:20:29,400 –> 00:20:31,300
\nNow people who are not
\nChristian, delphine’s actually <\/p>\n
322
\n00:20:31,300 –> 00:20:32,900
\nhave discovered these same
\ntruths. <\/p>\n
323
\n00:20:32,900 –> 00:20:38,700
\nWilliam James said, if you want
\nto make others happy, Practice <\/p>\n
324
\n00:20:38,700 –> 00:20:43,700
\ncompassion.
\nIf you want to be happy practice<\/p>\n
325
\n00:20:43,700 –> 00:20:48,000
\ncompassion.
\nMark Twain said, cheer yourself <\/p>\n
326
\n00:20:48,000 –> 00:20:50,900
\nup by trying to cheer somebody
\nelse up. <\/p>\n
327
\n00:20:52,100 –> 00:20:58,400
\nSo the way to happiness is to
\nput your life in God’s hands and<\/p>\n
328
\n00:20:58,400 –> 00:21:02,900
\nrealize as Mark Twain and
\nWilliam James said, think about <\/p>\n
329
\n00:21:02,900 –> 00:21:05,200
\nothers.
\nAnd when you are trying to help <\/p>\n
330
\n00:21:05,200 –> 00:21:08,500
\nsomebody else and you’re doing
\nfor them, all of a sudden you <\/p>\n
331
\n00:21:08,500 –> 00:21:12,000
\nfind out, you’re happy, you
\nforgotten about trying to be <\/p>\n
332
\n00:21:12,000 –> 00:21:15,400
\nhappy and the people said making
\nI just want to be happy or <\/p>\n
333
\n00:21:15,400 –> 00:21:17,900
\nmiserable.
\nIt’s an interesting thing and <\/p>\n
334
\n00:21:17,900 –> 00:21:21,400
\nthe world has not learned it
\nlike the cat right out of <\/p>\n
335
\n00:21:21,400 –> 00:21:24,600
\ncollege.
\nShe had not learned it, so our <\/p>\n
336
\n00:21:24,600 –> 00:21:28,400
\ntemporary assignment as we
\njourney to the on the way to the<\/p>\n
337
\n00:21:28,400 –> 00:21:30,600
\nkingdom, is to forget about
\nyourselves. <\/p>\n
338
\n00:21:31,400 –> 00:21:34,200
\nJust forget yourself and learn
\nto think of others. <\/p>\n
339
\n00:21:35,000 –> 00:21:38,900
\nThe more you think of others,
\nthe happy you will be the more <\/p>\n
340
\n00:21:38,900 –> 00:21:40,800
\nyou think of yourself the more
\nmiserable? <\/p>\n
341
\n00:21:40,800 –> 00:21:43,600
\nYou will be.
\nThey Jesus gives us the only <\/p>\n
342
\n00:21:43,600 –> 00:21:47,000
\npicture we have of the Judgment.
\nSee again, you know this? <\/p>\n
343
\n00:21:47,000 –> 00:21:51,300
\nWell, nothing new to you.
\nIt’s in Matthew chapter 25 and <\/p>\n
344
\n00:21:51,300 –> 00:21:54,000
\nhe He tells us how it will be at
\nthe Judgment. <\/p>\n
345
\n00:21:54,000 –> 00:21:56,700
\nSee and he’s going to talk to
\nyou, you know, you’re going to <\/p>\n
346
\n00:21:56,700 –> 00:22:00,000
\nbe there.
\nOh, those are going to partake <\/p>\n
347
\n00:22:00,000 –> 00:22:02,600
\nof these emblems.
\nThis morning, are going to be <\/p>\n
348
\n00:22:02,600 –> 00:22:05,800
\nthere.
\nWhether you’re ready or not, <\/p>\n
349
\n00:22:05,800 –> 00:22:09,900
\nyou’re going to be there and the
\npoint is to get ready because <\/p>\n
350
\n00:22:09,900 –> 00:22:12,800
\nit’s going to be too late to get
\nready when we get the call, the <\/p>\n
351
\n00:22:12,800 –> 00:22:15,800
\nmaster is coming calls for you.
\nSo now is our time to be getting<\/p>\n
352
\n00:22:15,800 –> 00:22:19,100
\nready but what are you doing?
\nWhile you’re getting ready? <\/p>\n
353
\n00:22:19,100 –> 00:22:20,700
\nJesus is going to explain it to
\nus. <\/p>\n
354
\n00:22:21,300 –> 00:22:25,200
\nThe king says come, you know, I
\nwas I was hungry and you gave me<\/p>\n
355
\n00:22:25,200 –> 00:22:27,800
\nsomething to eat.
\nI was thirsty. <\/p>\n
356
\n00:22:27,800 –> 00:22:30,900
\nYou gave me something to drink.
\nI have to thank you all you <\/p>\n
357
\n00:22:30,900 –> 00:22:32,400
\nBrothers.
\nYou’ve been so kind to me this <\/p>\n
358
\n00:22:32,400 –> 00:22:35,800
\nweek week and I mean, I people
\nhave been bringing me Waters. <\/p>\n
359
\n00:22:35,800 –> 00:22:39,300
\nBringing me food.
\nYeah, being conscious of my <\/p>\n
360
\n00:22:39,300 –> 00:22:41,600
\nneeds.
\nI’m an old man and I don’t get <\/p>\n
361
\n00:22:41,600 –> 00:22:45,200
\naround like I used to but but
\nyou’re showing thoughtfulness. <\/p>\n
362
\n00:22:45,600 –> 00:22:48,300
\nWell, when you’re doing that,
\nyou’re making yourself happy. <\/p>\n
363
\n00:22:48,300 –> 00:22:49,800
\nBut all that.
\nWasn’t what you’re trying to do,<\/p>\n
364
\n00:22:49,800 –> 00:22:52,700
\nyou’re trying to help me and it
\nmade me happy to see you. <\/p>\n
365
\n00:22:52,700 –> 00:22:54,700
\nHelp me.
\nSo ever. <\/p>\n
366
\n00:22:54,700 –> 00:22:56,800
\nIt was a win-win situation and
\nthe person. <\/p>\n
367
\n00:22:57,100 –> 00:22:59,300
\nWho cares only about themselves
\ntheir miserable? <\/p>\n
368
\n00:22:59,500 –> 00:23:02,400
\nHey, have you walk out a door
\nand you see the person right? <\/p>\n
369
\n00:23:02,400 –> 00:23:05,000
\nHe just slammed in your face,
\nyou know all the thing about. <\/p>\n
370
\n00:23:05,000 –> 00:23:07,600
\nI wasn’t going out the door.
\nYou’re going to do it, you hold <\/p>\n
371
\n00:23:07,600 –> 00:23:10,300
\nit open for somebody else.
\nIf it’s a door that’s going to <\/p>\n
372
\n00:23:10,308 –> 00:23:14,800
\nclose on you.
\nSo Jesus is saying this is what <\/p>\n
373
\n00:23:14,800 –> 00:23:18,500
\nyou did to me.
\nHe’s talking to you, it’s going <\/p>\n
374
\n00:23:18,500 –> 00:23:20,800
\nto be you, you’re going to be
\nthere and he tells say this to <\/p>\n
375
\n00:23:20,800 –> 00:23:24,800
\nyou.
\nI was hungry and you fed me. <\/p>\n
376
\n00:23:25,900 –> 00:23:27,100
\nI was thirsty.
\nYou gave me something. <\/p>\n
377
\n00:23:27,100 –> 00:23:29,000
\nI was a stranger and you took me
\nin. <\/p>\n
378
\n00:23:30,300 –> 00:23:32,400
\nI was in prison.
\nAll have you ever visited a <\/p>\n
379
\n00:23:32,408 –> 00:23:33,600
\nprison?
\nThey’re not a very pleasant <\/p>\n
380
\n00:23:33,600 –> 00:23:36,400
\nplace to go.
\nWho would you visit a <\/p>\n
381
\n00:23:36,408 –> 00:23:38,200
\nchristadelphians?
\nWe have christadelphians in <\/p>\n
382
\n00:23:38,200 –> 00:23:40,500
\nprison.
\nDo you go see them? <\/p>\n
383
\n00:23:40,500 –> 00:23:43,800
\nIf there happens to them when
\nthey’re sick, do you go to the <\/p>\n
384
\n00:23:43,800 –> 00:23:45,600
\nhospital?
\nDo you go to the nursing homes? <\/p>\n
385
\n00:23:45,900 –> 00:23:47,700
\nYou all these places are
\nsometimes your smelly. <\/p>\n
386
\n00:23:47,800 –> 00:23:49,800
\nI’ve had Christian say I don’t
\ngo to those places because they <\/p>\n
387
\n00:23:49,800 –> 00:23:53,000
\ndon’t smell good and then they
\nturn out to be in one <\/p>\n
388
\n00:23:53,000 –> 00:23:56,100
\nthemselves.
\nAs a patient. <\/p>\n
389
\n00:23:57,200 –> 00:23:59,100
\nStrange.
\nHow life comes that way? <\/p>\n
390
\n00:24:00,300 –> 00:24:03,800
\nI you invited me to your home,
\nwe talked about that yesterday <\/p>\n
391
\n00:24:04,700 –> 00:24:06,600
\nand you didn’t remember any of
\nthis. <\/p>\n
392
\n00:24:07,300 –> 00:24:10,700
\nThey said, Lord.
\nWhen we that we never went to <\/p>\n
393
\n00:24:10,700 –> 00:24:12,300
\nprison to see you.
\nWe didn’t feed you. <\/p>\n
394
\n00:24:12,300 –> 00:24:13,700
\nWe didn’t give you anything to
\ndrink. <\/p>\n
395
\n00:24:14,100 –> 00:24:16,300
\nOh, but you did in as much as
\nyou did it. <\/p>\n
396
\n00:24:16,300 –> 00:24:20,700
\nAnd one of the least of these,
\nmy brethren, you did it for me. <\/p>\n
397
\n00:24:22,200 –> 00:24:24,700
\nAnd then he’s going to turn to
\nthose who didn’t do it, who were<\/p>\n
398
\n00:24:24,700 –> 00:24:27,800
\nwrapped up in their own life.
\nAnd I just want to make sure I’m<\/p>\n
399
\n00:24:28,000 –> 00:24:29,800
\ncomfortable.
\nI’m well fed. <\/p>\n
400
\n00:24:29,800 –> 00:24:33,600
\nI’m, I have enough to drink.
\nI’m well, clothes don’t talk <\/p>\n
401
\n00:24:33,600 –> 00:24:36,300
\nabout you too bad, he warmed and
\nfilled, just go take this area. <\/p>\n
402
\n00:24:36,300 –> 00:24:41,900
\nSo, James talks about that.
\nThinking of self and miserable <\/p>\n
403
\n00:24:42,700 –> 00:24:47,500
\nthinking of others and happy.
\nSo so is this is a true win-win <\/p>\n
404
\n00:24:47,500 –> 00:24:51,400
\nsituation.
\nIf you learn to put yourself out<\/p>\n
405
\n00:24:51,400 –> 00:24:56,700
\nfor others now, you will be
\nhappy now. <\/p>\n
406
\n00:24:57,900 –> 00:25:01,500
\nAnd when Jesus comes, you’re
\ngoing to be happier than you <\/p>\n
407
\n00:25:01,500 –> 00:25:04,000
\nhave ever been.
\nWhen he says Come Ye blessed of <\/p>\n
408
\n00:25:04,000 –> 00:25:07,200
\nmy father inherit the Kingdom,
\nprepared for you, from the <\/p>\n
409
\n00:25:07,200 –> 00:25:11,500
\nfoundation of the world and all
\nthe little things that you did <\/p>\n
410
\n00:25:11,500 –> 00:25:15,800
\nthat, you didn’t realize.
\nWe’re for Jesus, they were for <\/p>\n
411
\n00:25:15,800 –> 00:25:18,400
\nhim because you did it for
\nothers. <\/p>\n
412
\n00:25:21,100 –> 00:25:23,100
\nAre we doing this brothers and
\nsisters? <\/p>\n
413
\n00:25:23,600 –> 00:25:25,800
\nYou only living here,
\ntemporarily don’t get too <\/p>\n
414
\n00:25:26,200 –> 00:25:29,900
\ncomfortable where you live, but
\njust realize that while you are <\/p>\n
415
\n00:25:29,900 –> 00:25:34,900
\nhere as an ambassador, your job
\nis to look after other people. <\/p>\n
416
\n00:25:35,600 –> 00:25:39,900
\nOld people, young people people
\nin between someone doesn’t have <\/p>\n
417
\n00:25:39,900 –> 00:25:44,100
\na car, give them a ride to
\nmeeting people who can’t go out <\/p>\n
418
\n00:25:44,100 –> 00:25:47,400
\nto get groceries.
\nWe go buy groceries for them and<\/p>\n
419
\n00:25:48,300 –> 00:25:52,500
\njust little things.
\nGlass of water. <\/p>\n
420
\n00:25:53,400 –> 00:25:58,300
\nThis is not a very big deal.
\nJesus is if you just give a <\/p>\n
421
\n00:25:58,300 –> 00:26:04,400
\nglass of water in my name, I
\nremember it. <\/p>\n
422
\n00:26:05,000 –> 00:26:06,900
\nYou will not lose your reward
\nfor that. <\/p>\n
423
\n00:26:07,000 –> 00:26:09,600
\nNo.
\nBut somebody, somebody was <\/p>\n
424
\n00:26:09,800 –> 00:26:12,900
\nthoughtful enough to realize
\nthat the speaker might need a <\/p>\n
425
\n00:26:12,908 –> 00:26:16,900
\nglass of water during the talk
\nand so they put themselves out a<\/p>\n
426
\n00:26:16,900 –> 00:26:20,700
\nlittle bit by saying and it’s
\neven cold water so they have <\/p>\n
427
\n00:26:20,700 –> 00:26:25,300
\nbeen careful about the little
\ndetails because they care. <\/p>\n
428
\n00:26:26,100 –> 00:26:28,700
\nSo I think that person whoever
\nthey were they didn’t do that to<\/p>\n
429
\n00:26:28,708 –> 00:26:31,500
\nbe thanked.
\nBut I do appreciate it. <\/p>\n
430
\n00:26:31,800 –> 00:26:33,600
\nBut the more important thing is
\nthough, it is the Lord. <\/p>\n
431
\n00:26:34,600 –> 00:26:36,700
\nNow James is going to tell you
\nabout pure religion. <\/p>\n
432
\n00:26:36,900 –> 00:26:39,500
\nNow, this is the definition of
\npure religion and is not the <\/p>\n
433
\n00:26:39,500 –> 00:26:41,200
\ndefinition that christadelphians
\nwould normally. <\/p>\n
434
\n00:26:41,200 –> 00:26:43,400
\nGet if you didn’t know about
\nthis verse, this is certainly <\/p>\n
435
\n00:26:43,400 –> 00:26:45,700
\nnot what you would have said.
\nI want you to tell me your <\/p>\n
436
\n00:26:45,700 –> 00:26:47,500
\nChristian out here.
\nYes, I’m a Christian Delphia. <\/p>\n
437
\n00:26:48,200 –> 00:26:50,400
\nWell, this Puro that’s pure
\nreligion. <\/p>\n
438
\n00:26:50,800 –> 00:26:53,400
\nWhat is pure religion?
\nWell, let me tell you about pure<\/p>\n
439
\n00:26:53,400 –> 00:26:56,600
\nreligion, we don’t get involved
\nin the world. <\/p>\n
440
\n00:26:56,600 –> 00:27:01,900
\nOf course, we You come up, very
\nup, the Birmingham in the <\/p>\n
441
\n00:27:01,900 –> 00:27:04,100
\nstatement of faith, we meet on
\nthe bridge, we’re trying to keep<\/p>\n
442
\n00:27:04,100 –> 00:27:06,600
\nthe doctors pure.
\nWe’re trying to keep hold High <\/p>\n
443
\n00:27:06,600 –> 00:27:09,700
\nthe standards of the truth.
\nYou know, that’s all correcting,<\/p>\n
444
\n00:27:09,700 –> 00:27:12,900
\nright?
\nIt’s not what James said, it <\/p>\n
445
\n00:27:12,900 –> 00:27:15,700
\nall.
\nThat’s not what he said. <\/p>\n
446
\n00:27:16,200 –> 00:27:18,200
\nDon’t want you to think that.
\nI don’t think those things are <\/p>\n
447
\n00:27:18,200 –> 00:27:21,500
\nimportant, because I know
\nthey’re important, but if you <\/p>\n
448
\n00:27:21,500 –> 00:27:24,100
\nkeep the standards of the truth,
\nI and you keep yourself very <\/p>\n
449
\n00:27:24,100 –> 00:27:25,800
\npure.
\nBut you don’t do anything for <\/p>\n
450
\n00:27:25,800 –> 00:27:28,000
\nanybody else.
\nYour religion is vain. <\/p>\n
451
\n00:27:28,100 –> 00:27:33,900
\nIt’s worthless in spite of the
\nfact that it’s pure if you don’t<\/p>\n
452
\n00:27:33,900 –> 00:27:38,000
\nget busy doing for other people
\nand caring for their <\/p>\n
453
\n00:27:38,000 –> 00:27:42,600
\ninsignificant little needs, Your
\nreligion is in vain. <\/p>\n
454
\n00:27:43,000 –> 00:27:46,400
\nI wouldn’t dare come all the way
\nfrom California and say that to <\/p>\n
455
\n00:27:46,400 –> 00:27:49,000
\nyou.
\nExcept I’m only telling you what<\/p>\n
456
\n00:27:49,000 –> 00:27:52,100
\nJames said, and he was speaking
\nabout inspiration. <\/p>\n
457
\n00:27:52,700 –> 00:27:54,900
\nSo, he’s right.
\nEven though I could easily be <\/p>\n
458
\n00:27:54,900 –> 00:27:58,700
\nwrong.
\nSo, how are we doing? <\/p>\n
459
\n00:27:59,700 –> 00:28:01,600
\nWe’re going to partake of these
\nemblems in a minute. <\/p>\n
460
\n00:28:02,900 –> 00:28:05,500
\nThey represent a body that was
\ngiven for you. <\/p>\n
461
\n00:28:06,200 –> 00:28:08,000
\nHe can’t do more than give your
\nlife. <\/p>\n
462
\n00:28:08,000 –> 00:28:13,400
\nThat’s the ultimate sacrifice.
\nHe laid down his life for you <\/p>\n
463
\n00:28:13,600 –> 00:28:16,900
\nwhen you partake of the bread
\nand the wine you are in symbol <\/p>\n
464
\n00:28:17,300 –> 00:28:23,700
\ntaking Jesus inside you, the
\nLord Jesus Christ is being <\/p>\n
465
\n00:28:24,400 –> 00:28:28,900
\nconsumed by you and what did he
\nsay? <\/p>\n
466
\n00:28:28,900 –> 00:28:33,000
\nFollow me.
\nAnd what did he do? <\/p>\n
467
\n00:28:34,100 –> 00:28:39,800
\nHe had compassion on the
\nmultitude, even some of the <\/p>\n
468
\n00:28:39,800 –> 00:28:43,900
\npeople that killed him, he was
\nkind to them now. <\/p>\n
469
\n00:28:46,800 –> 00:28:52,100
\nIf you are pretty young girl and
\nI came up to you and tell you, <\/p>\n
470
\n00:28:52,100 –> 00:28:55,900
\nI’m going to give you a kiss and
\nyou don’t want one. <\/p>\n
471
\n00:28:56,900 –> 00:29:00,500
\nYou can make it very difficult
\nfor me, you know, I’m going to <\/p>\n
472
\n00:29:00,500 –> 00:29:01,700
\ngive you all know you’re not in
\nhere. <\/p>\n
473
\n00:29:01,700 –> 00:29:04,000
\nYou’re talking.
\nI thought I might overpower you,<\/p>\n
474
\n00:29:04,200 –> 00:29:08,300
\nif I was Stronger than you.
\nBut you would be giving it <\/p>\n
475
\n00:29:08,300 –> 00:29:11,900
\nreluctantly because you don’t
\nwant to kiss from an old man <\/p>\n
476
\n00:29:11,900 –> 00:29:17,100
\nlike me.
\nBut Jesus knew that Judas was <\/p>\n
477
\n00:29:17,100 –> 00:29:20,900
\ngoing to kissing.
\nAnd he knew that that would be <\/p>\n
478
\n00:29:20,900 –> 00:29:24,400
\nthe sign he was being betrayed.
\nIt was a death kiss. <\/p>\n
479
\n00:29:27,000 –> 00:29:33,500
\nAnd Jesus called him friend,
\nwherefore art thou, come and he <\/p>\n
480
\n00:29:33,500 –> 00:29:40,500
\nallowed Judas to kiss him, do
\nit, meant his arrest. <\/p>\n
481
\n00:29:42,300 –> 00:29:46,700
\nYou see Stephen looked after
\nhimself he just forgot himself <\/p>\n
482
\n00:29:46,700 –> 00:29:50,400
\nat helped others and that’s the
\nLord that we’re coming. <\/p>\n
483
\n00:29:50,400 –> 00:29:54,100
\nNow to remember the one who gave
\nhis life for you. <\/p>\n
484
\n00:29:54,200 –> 00:29:56,100
\nAre you going to do that for
\nhim? <\/p>\n
485
\n00:29:57,000 –> 00:29:59,000
\nAre you too wrapped up in this
\nlife? <\/p>\n
486
\n00:29:59,000 –> 00:30:01,000
\nAre you too busy with the things
\nof this life? <\/p>\n
487
\n00:30:01,200 –> 00:30:04,500
\nYou have no time to help your
\nbrothers and sisters. <\/p>\n
488
\n00:30:05,400 –> 00:30:08,400
\nPoor Paul.
\nPaul was in prison, we just read<\/p>\n
489
\n00:30:08,400 –> 00:30:13,100
\nabout him in prison in Rome in
\ntoday’s readings and he writes a<\/p>\n
490
\n00:30:13,100 –> 00:30:17,100
\nletter to the Philippians.
\nHe says I’d like to send <\/p>\n
491
\n00:30:17,100 –> 00:30:20,300
\nsomebody to you but you know of
\nall the brothers and sisters, I <\/p>\n
492
\n00:30:20,300 –> 00:30:26,000
\nknow they’re all wrapped up in
\ntheir own affairs. <\/p>\n
493
\n00:30:27,600 –> 00:30:32,200
\nExcept Timothy.
\nOne exception. <\/p>\n
494
\n00:30:33,600 –> 00:30:39,700
\nHe cares about you, he’s willing
\nto come and visit you, because I<\/p>\n
495
\n00:30:39,700 –> 00:30:41,600
\ncan’t.
\nI’m in jail. <\/p>\n
496
\n00:30:44,400 –> 00:30:47,400
\nYou go visit somebody, you jump
\nin your car and you drive on <\/p>\n
497
\n00:30:47,400 –> 00:30:50,000
\npaved roads.
\nYou pull up it to their house <\/p>\n
498
\n00:30:50,000 –> 00:30:55,100
\nand no great effort.
\nTimothy had to walk in to take a<\/p>\n
499
\n00:30:55,108 –> 00:30:58,800
\nboat driven by the wind.
\nIt took not days, it took weeks <\/p>\n
500
\n00:30:58,800 –> 00:31:01,200
\nmaybe even months for them to
\nget around. <\/p>\n
501
\n00:31:03,800 –> 00:31:07,000
\nWould you get in a Sailing Boat
\nand sail across the Pacific to <\/p>\n
502
\n00:31:07,000 –> 00:31:09,400
\nmy house to see me?
\nBecause he heard I was sick. <\/p>\n
503
\n00:31:09,800 –> 00:31:12,400
\nWhy don’t have time?
\nI’ve got a job to do. <\/p>\n
504
\n00:31:12,400 –> 00:31:13,300
\nThat would be true.
\nI know. <\/p>\n
505
\n00:31:13,500 –> 00:31:15,700
\nMost drop bosses.
\nWant Levi, give you that much <\/p>\n
506
\n00:31:15,700 –> 00:31:20,200
\ntime off.
\nBut you see how involved are you<\/p>\n
507
\n00:31:20,200 –> 00:31:23,500
\nin this world that you don’t
\nhave time to do these things for<\/p>\n
508
\n00:31:23,500 –> 00:31:26,200
\nthe Lord.
\nWell, I have a job. <\/p>\n
509
\n00:31:26,200 –> 00:31:28,900
\nDo I have homework to do?
\nI can’t, I can’t go visit that <\/p>\n
510
\n00:31:28,900 –> 00:31:30,600
\nsister.
\nI have a test tomorrow. <\/p>\n
511
\n00:31:30,700 –> 00:31:34,200
\nWell, that’s probably right and
\nyou have to prioritize your time<\/p>\n
512
\n00:31:34,400 –> 00:31:37,200
\nand there is a time and place
\nfor all things and you can’t <\/p>\n
513
\n00:31:37,200 –> 00:31:39,200
\nalways do what you want to do
\nwhen you want to do it. <\/p>\n
514
\n00:31:39,200 –> 00:31:42,600
\nBut the question is, are you
\nthinking about trying to help <\/p>\n
515
\n00:31:42,600 –> 00:31:45,100
\nothers?
\nAnd are you making ways to help <\/p>\n
516
\n00:31:45,100 –> 00:31:47,500
\nothers?
\nOr are you just filling yourself<\/p>\n
517
\n00:31:47,500 –> 00:31:49,900
\nwith your own life and your own
\nactivities? <\/p>\n
518
\n00:31:50,700 –> 00:31:52,600
\nI don’t have time to go to the
\nBible class. <\/p>\n
519
\n00:31:53,400 –> 00:31:57,000
\nI know it’s a nice thing to see.
\nShe’s going on, I’m busy. <\/p>\n
520
\n00:31:58,200 –> 00:32:04,700
\nHow many of you are Timothy’s?
\nYes, I would like to say is All <\/p>\n
521
\n00:32:04,700 –> 00:32:08,600
\nof You Are.
\nPaul couldn’t say that. <\/p>\n
522
\n00:32:10,000 –> 00:32:13,700
\nAnd I can’t because I don’t know
\nyou that, well, all I’m saying, <\/p>\n
523
\n00:32:13,700 –> 00:32:16,800
\nis this exhortation is about
\nbecoming a Timothy? <\/p>\n
524
\n00:32:17,700 –> 00:32:22,500
\nIt’s about forgetting yourself.
\nIt’s about devoting your life. <\/p>\n
525
\n00:32:23,600 –> 00:32:27,400
\nTo Jesus.
\nSo in as much as you do these <\/p>\n
526
\n00:32:27,400 –> 00:32:35,400
\nthings to other Christian Alfie
\nins you do them for him and in <\/p>\n
527
\n00:32:35,400 –> 00:32:40,900
\nas much as you don’t do it, you
\ndon’t do it to him. <\/p>\n
528
\n00:32:41,700 –> 00:32:46,300
\nAnd so your religion needs to be
\npure and you have to keep <\/p>\n
529
\n00:32:46,300 –> 00:32:48,000
\nyourself unspotted from the
\nworld. <\/p>\n
530
\n00:32:48,300 –> 00:32:52,100
\nBut you do that by getting
\ninvolved in your closure. <\/p>\n
531
\n00:32:53,400 –> 00:32:57,500
\nYou get involved in and today
\nit’s so much easier. <\/p>\n
532
\n00:32:57,900 –> 00:33:01,100
\nAll you young people have email
\nand you text messages all over <\/p>\n
533
\n00:33:01,100 –> 00:33:04,400
\nthe place.
\nSometimes send that one to an <\/p>\n
534
\n00:33:04,400 –> 00:33:08,300
\nold guy.
\nYou know, young people sometimes<\/p>\n
535
\n00:33:08,600 –> 00:33:12,700
\nthink, oh, people are invisible.
\nThey can walk right by you. <\/p>\n
536
\n00:33:12,700 –> 00:33:14,700
\nThey don’t even speak to you
\nbecause they are your old, you <\/p>\n
537
\n00:33:14,700 –> 00:33:19,100
\nknow, and some old people don’t
\nnotice this sweet young people. <\/p>\n
538
\n00:33:20,000 –> 00:33:25,400
\nAnd so we care about each other,
\nthe young carers about the old, <\/p>\n
539

\nthe old cares about the yuck, we
\nall love each other and we’re <\/p>\n

\ntrying to help each other get
\ninto the kingdom. <\/p>\n
541
\n00:33:34,200 –> 00:33:40,400
\nSo you do that by extending your
\nhand to others and helping them <\/p>\n
542
\n00:33:40,400 –> 00:33:43,000
\nalong the way.
\nJust remember, you’re only here <\/p>\n
543
\n00:33:43,000 –> 00:33:45,800
\nfor as a puff of smoke.

\nLon go over and mow his lawn for<\/p>\n
548
\n00:33:59,500 –> 00:34:05,100
\nhim mundane things that you can
\ndo for they’re people that shows<\/p>\n
