00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.260
 Welcome to the Willow Ridge Sermons Podcast, where you can listen to audio from our most

00:00:09.260 --> 00:00:13.940
 recent sermons and more. Thanks for listening, and be sure to add this show to your library

00:00:13.940 --> 00:00:16.880
 if you'd like to automatically receive new episodes each week.

00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:32.360
 Hey, good morning. Thank you. If you have your Bible, and I hope you do, I want to invite you to join

00:00:32.360 --> 00:00:38.020
 me in 2 Timothy chapter 3. If you do not have a Bible, I want to encourage you at the end of the

00:00:38.020 --> 00:00:43.900
 service, back here to my left are some black Bibles. We would love for you to come and get one of those

00:00:43.900 --> 00:00:49.880
 as a gift from us to you. If we can give you anything else, it would be our privilege to give

00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:56.580
 you a copy of God's Word. Also, if you have a copy of God's Word, and maybe the translation is a little

00:00:56.580 --> 00:01:02.100
 bit difficult for you to read or understand, please come back and get one of those as well.

00:01:02.300 --> 00:01:08.520
 It is the translation that I use on Sunday mornings, so I want to invite you to do that.

00:01:08.960 --> 00:01:14.280
 I'd like to read before we get started, 2 Timothy 3, 16 through 17, and it'll be our focal verse. We'll

00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:15.320
 read it again later, but it says,

00:01:15.800 --> 00:01:35.000
 Would you pray with me? God, thank you so much for this time and this opportunity, Lord, that we could

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:43.780
 gather in here today. God, I thank you for Dawn Coulter as she shared her story. God, your story with what

00:01:43.780 --> 00:01:51.080
 you're doing in her life at the 9 o'clock hour. God, thank you for the power of the testimony. God,

00:01:51.140 --> 00:01:56.780
 testimony about you. God, I pray that as we dive into your Word today, through the power of your Holy

00:01:56.780 --> 00:02:03.340
 Spirit, this will not just be factual information that we process, but God, through the power of

00:02:03.340 --> 00:02:09.500
 your Word, the power of your Spirit, God, that some will be saved. God, that lives will be transformed.

00:02:10.420 --> 00:02:16.420
 God, and we'll grow to be more the men and women of God that you've called us to be.

00:02:17.260 --> 00:02:22.460
 And I ask all these things in Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Amen. Also, I forgot to say this. If you're a

00:02:22.460 --> 00:02:27.040
 first-time guest, my wife and I will be back in the back as well at that table, the same table where

00:02:27.040 --> 00:02:31.740
 the Bibles are at the end of the service, and we would love to greet you. We would love to thank you.

00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.160
 We would love to welcome you for being here and worshiping with us. So if you wouldn't mind just a

00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:38.620
 couple moments, just stop back there, and if you do have any questions about who we are as a church,

00:02:38.620 --> 00:02:46.160
 be a wonderful place and opportunity to get those answered. Well, we're starting our summer series

00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:51.980
 this week, our new series. For years now, I feel like we've kind of gotten in some rhythms with how

00:02:51.980 --> 00:02:59.560
 we teach different things here at our church, not just topical versus expository, which we're

00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:03.940
 expository. We typically work through books of the Bible, but during the summertime, we kind of take

00:03:03.940 --> 00:03:11.320
 a transition time, I guess, for how we teach. We bring in a summer series, and so this summer series

00:03:11.320 --> 00:03:15.560
 that we're going to do is we're going to look at some common verses of the Bible. In fact, I would

00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:19.640
 argue that as I've looked through these, I'll be teaching through most of them. Dave's going to do

00:03:19.640 --> 00:03:24.260
 a couple. Josh is going to do one. That these verses of the Bible, if you've been around church,

00:03:24.320 --> 00:03:29.980
 if you've been in church, you've probably heard these verses before. Even if you haven't been in

00:03:29.980 --> 00:03:34.940
 church, maybe you've heard your friends or those around you or even on social media where people use

00:03:34.940 --> 00:03:39.820
 these very common verses, but we're not talking about these verses because they're common. We're talking

00:03:39.820 --> 00:03:46.300
 about these verses because they're common used verses that are oftentimes misunderstood and then

00:03:46.300 --> 00:03:54.120
 misused. Verses that we take and are misunderstood and misused. Now, when Dave and I were talking

00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:58.140
 about this and praying through doing this months ago, and I was really excited. I thought this would be

00:03:58.140 --> 00:04:02.360
 something that people would get excited about, that people would want to listen to and be a part of

00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.720
 and kind of find out these things. And then I started talking to some people over the last couple

00:04:05.720 --> 00:04:14.960
 weeks and I would hear phrases like, I'm a little scared about this series. And so like, if someone

00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:21.280
 tells me that they're scared, like, well, why are you scared? And they're like, I'm afraid that there

00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:29.720
 are verses of the Bible that I've been using and I've been using them incorrectly the entire way,

00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:35.240
 the entire time. So here's, I want to cover that with you really quickly as we get into this,

00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:45.060
 okay? I'm going to make an assumption this morning. And the assumption is this. Have you and I,

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:57.940
 we're in this together. Have we ever misunderstood or misused scripture? Yes. Yes, we have.

00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:08.800
 Absolutely. There has been points and times where you have and where I have misunderstood and misused

00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:23.660
 scripture. Number two, does God's grace cover us when we do this? Yes. Yes. Now, I'm not going to hold

00:05:23.660 --> 00:05:30.900
 back from this because there have been points and times where I look and evaluate, had someone point

00:05:30.900 --> 00:05:37.640
 out, have conversations through, and when I realize that I've misused or misunderstood scripture,

00:05:37.940 --> 00:05:46.760
 I don't go, oh, whatever, not that big of a deal. I need to repent, come before the Lord and acknowledge

00:05:46.760 --> 00:05:56.400
 that. But God's grace covers this and it is good. It is good. Like, correction, we'll see this, we'll talk

00:05:56.400 --> 00:06:01.960
 about this a little bit later. Like, correction is not a punishment from God. Like, correction is a

00:06:01.960 --> 00:06:09.700
 gracious gift of God's grace or God's love for us, right? So when he corrects us, we experience his love

00:06:09.700 --> 00:06:15.740
 and his mercy and we understand it even more. So what's the goal of this series? What's the goal

00:06:15.740 --> 00:06:21.280
 of this series? The first thing, to correct where we've been wrong. To correct where we've been wrong.

00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:28.360
 You know, maybe we're wrong because we don't know. Maybe we're wrong because we've been mistaught.

00:06:28.900 --> 00:06:34.160
 Maybe we're wrong because we've been manipulated. Maybe we're wrong because we're reading scripture

00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:39.240
 through the context of our sin, of what's there. We want to correct where we've been wrong.

00:06:39.700 --> 00:06:46.040
 A few years ago, Immigration Center 17, a few years ago, God took us on a journey,

00:06:46.860 --> 00:06:53.740
 a difficult journey for them and for Aaron and I as we taught them how to drive, right?

00:06:54.400 --> 00:07:00.980
 They learned life lessons through that. Aaron and I, man, we clung to the Lord, right?

00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:10.300
 And God was faithful through it all. One of our kids was more, how should I say this?

00:07:12.700 --> 00:07:22.120
 Aggressive in their driving. And one of our kids was more passive in their driving. Both of those,

00:07:22.200 --> 00:07:26.200
 by the way, can put you in situations where you're afraid for your life.

00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.580
 I heard a mom, like, absolutely. Preach on.

00:07:33.220 --> 00:07:35.080
 So, one day

00:07:35.080 --> 00:07:38.420
 me and a particular child

00:07:38.420 --> 00:07:39.620
 were riding to school.

00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:42.900
 And we came to a red light.

00:07:45.180 --> 00:07:47.380
 And the light

00:07:47.380 --> 00:07:49.200
 was red for us.

00:07:49.740 --> 00:07:50.900
 That's red light.

00:07:51.780 --> 00:07:52.700
 Coming to it.

00:07:53.140 --> 00:07:54.240
 We need to turn right.

00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:57.080
 There's cars coming

00:07:57.080 --> 00:07:59.480
 this way. It's Highway 1.

00:08:01.740 --> 00:08:04.460
 And what I've learned is, like, I can be

00:08:04.460 --> 00:08:06.060
 aggressive

00:08:06.060 --> 00:08:07.500
 in instructions.

00:08:08.820 --> 00:08:10.300
 And I need to let go.

00:08:12.080 --> 00:08:14.740
 And so, I'm thinking in my mind, we should be slowing down.

00:08:15.760 --> 00:08:16.740
 Why aren't we slowing down?

00:08:17.580 --> 00:08:18.440
 Why aren't we stopping?

00:08:19.280 --> 00:08:20.680
 Why did we just turn

00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:23.120
 like this is, you know,

00:08:23.200 --> 00:08:25.380
 we're out in the middle of nowhere or whatever.

00:08:25.540 --> 00:08:26.880
 It's a red light. We just turn.

00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:29.440
 And I looked at the child that was

00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:31.220
 driving, and I said,

00:08:31.740 --> 00:08:33.740
 why did you just do that?

00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:35.820
 No grace,

00:08:35.940 --> 00:08:36.760
 no understanding,

00:08:37.400 --> 00:08:38.620
 judgmental dad

00:08:38.620 --> 00:08:39.280
 in the moment.

00:08:40.920 --> 00:08:42.280
 This child looked at me

00:08:42.280 --> 00:08:42.720
 and said,

00:08:43.900 --> 00:08:45.460
 yesterday

00:08:45.460 --> 00:08:47.900
 you told me

00:08:47.900 --> 00:08:49.520
 that I can turn right

00:08:49.520 --> 00:08:50.620
 on red lights.

00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:54.200
 Sure.

00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:56.260
 I absolutely

00:08:56.260 --> 00:08:56.740
 did.

00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:58.980
 That was the words

00:08:58.980 --> 00:09:00.080
 that I used.

00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:02.140
 But you misunderstood

00:09:02.140 --> 00:09:04.540
 because you had a bad teacher, right?

00:09:06.160 --> 00:09:07.900
 So, we had the conversation.

00:09:08.060 --> 00:09:08.720
 I'm at fault.

00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:09.820
 That child was right.

00:09:09.880 --> 00:09:10.340
 We're good.

00:09:10.700 --> 00:09:11.120
 We're good.

00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:13.980
 So, sometimes we've been taught wrong.

00:09:15.180 --> 00:09:16.520
 And the goal of this

00:09:16.520 --> 00:09:17.420
 is not to look

00:09:17.420 --> 00:09:18.200
 and point fingers,

00:09:18.540 --> 00:09:20.300
 but it's to correct

00:09:20.300 --> 00:09:21.360
 where we've been wrong

00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:22.860
 and to praise God

00:09:22.860 --> 00:09:24.380
 because we've been corrected, right?

00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:26.440
 Number two,

00:09:26.580 --> 00:09:27.500
 the goal for this series

00:09:27.500 --> 00:09:29.860
 is it's a desire for us

00:09:29.860 --> 00:09:31.560
 to help grow a heart

00:09:31.560 --> 00:09:33.220
 for deeper understanding

00:09:33.220 --> 00:09:35.880
 and application

00:09:35.880 --> 00:09:36.780
 of God's Word.

00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:39.460
 And both of these

00:09:39.460 --> 00:09:41.360
 are important, right?

00:09:42.100 --> 00:09:43.560
 We don't just want

00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:44.520
 to understand

00:09:44.520 --> 00:09:46.060
 God's Word.

00:09:46.880 --> 00:09:48.640
 We want to apply

00:09:48.640 --> 00:09:49.400
 God's Word

00:09:49.400 --> 00:09:50.860
 as we understand

00:09:50.860 --> 00:09:51.400
 God's Word.

00:09:52.420 --> 00:09:53.960
 And where we go wrong

00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:54.540
 oftentimes

00:09:54.540 --> 00:09:56.180
 in the usage

00:09:56.180 --> 00:09:56.900
 of Scripture

00:09:56.900 --> 00:09:58.420
 is number one,

00:09:58.560 --> 00:09:59.140
 it's either

00:09:59.140 --> 00:10:00.820
 an intellectual pursuit,

00:10:01.660 --> 00:10:03.220
 so let me gain knowledge

00:10:03.220 --> 00:10:04.360
 that doesn't play out

00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:05.220
 in application,

00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:07.000
 or

00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.160
 let me try to

00:10:09.160 --> 00:10:10.740
 apply the things

00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:12.420
 that I don't even know

00:10:12.420 --> 00:10:13.400
 if they are true.

00:10:14.400 --> 00:10:15.280
 And then oftentimes

00:10:15.280 --> 00:10:15.800
 they're not.

00:10:16.980 --> 00:10:18.060
 And that's what we'll see

00:10:18.060 --> 00:10:19.500
 in these,

00:10:19.560 --> 00:10:20.520
 that we've taken

00:10:20.520 --> 00:10:21.780
 misinformation

00:10:21.780 --> 00:10:23.160
 and we've tried

00:10:23.160 --> 00:10:24.080
 to apply it,

00:10:24.780 --> 00:10:26.800
 and then when it doesn't work

00:10:26.800 --> 00:10:28.760
 the way that we think

00:10:28.760 --> 00:10:29.580
 that it should,

00:10:30.560 --> 00:10:31.680
 but in our mind,

00:10:31.760 --> 00:10:32.340
 but I've done

00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:33.120
 what it says

00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:34.460
 even though we haven't,

00:10:35.780 --> 00:10:36.620
 then God's failed.

00:10:37.540 --> 00:10:39.420
 So we want to understand

00:10:39.420 --> 00:10:42.680
 and have proper application.

00:10:43.880 --> 00:10:44.760
 The other thing

00:10:44.760 --> 00:10:45.240
 that we want to do

00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:46.380
 is we want to grow together

00:10:46.380 --> 00:10:47.660
 as a community

00:10:47.660 --> 00:10:48.620
 with this,

00:10:48.640 --> 00:10:49.020
 as a community

00:10:49.020 --> 00:10:50.040
 of church together.

00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:52.480
 So what we will do

00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:53.200
 each week

00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:53.840
 following

00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:55.560
 the Sunday morning's

00:10:55.560 --> 00:10:56.200
 lesson,

00:10:56.660 --> 00:10:57.920
 so the next week,

00:10:58.000 --> 00:10:59.260
 so next Sunday morning

00:10:59.260 --> 00:11:00.520
 at 9 a.m.,

00:11:00.520 --> 00:11:02.100
 we will gather together

00:11:02.100 --> 00:11:03.440
 to discuss

00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:04.440
 this message

00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:05.660
 that I'm teaching

00:11:05.660 --> 00:11:06.180
 this morning.

00:11:07.280 --> 00:11:08.500
 And we want you

00:11:08.500 --> 00:11:09.000
 to be here.

00:11:09.980 --> 00:11:10.540
 We're going to gather

00:11:10.540 --> 00:11:11.360
 back in here

00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:12.460
 as many of you

00:11:12.460 --> 00:11:13.280
 that will come.

00:11:13.820 --> 00:11:14.760
 We'll have different

00:11:14.760 --> 00:11:16.220
 individuals come up

00:11:16.220 --> 00:11:17.340
 and facilitate

00:11:17.340 --> 00:11:18.980
 a discussion with us

00:11:18.980 --> 00:11:19.860
 where you'll talk

00:11:19.860 --> 00:11:20.600
 about some things

00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:21.640
 in some small groups.

00:11:21.800 --> 00:11:22.600
 We'll talk about

00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:23.180
 some things.

00:11:23.340 --> 00:11:24.340
 I can even answer

00:11:24.340 --> 00:11:24.940
 questions,

00:11:24.940 --> 00:11:26.020
 and I may even ask

00:11:26.020 --> 00:11:27.260
 questions as well

00:11:27.260 --> 00:11:28.160
 as we kind of navigate

00:11:28.160 --> 00:11:28.640
 through this.

00:11:28.820 --> 00:11:30.600
 So I'm inviting you

00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:32.700
 to join me

00:11:32.700 --> 00:11:34.680
 in this process

00:11:34.680 --> 00:11:36.420
 as we go through

00:11:36.420 --> 00:11:37.080
 this together

00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:38.400
 so that you

00:11:38.400 --> 00:11:39.520
 and I

00:11:39.520 --> 00:11:41.000
 can become

00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:42.360
 more faithful

00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:44.120
 in understanding

00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:45.820
 and applying

00:11:45.820 --> 00:11:48.300
 God's word.

00:11:49.100 --> 00:11:49.400
 Now,

00:11:49.560 --> 00:11:50.640
 when I talk to people,

00:11:50.740 --> 00:11:51.560
 and the other reason

00:11:51.560 --> 00:11:52.040
 why I think

00:11:52.040 --> 00:11:52.720
 this is always

00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:53.220
 so important,

00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:53.940
 anytime we can

00:11:53.940 --> 00:11:54.620
 come together

00:11:54.620 --> 00:11:55.460
 as a congregation

00:11:55.460 --> 00:11:56.520
 to kind of push

00:11:56.520 --> 00:11:57.900
 ourselves into

00:11:57.900 --> 00:11:58.660
 reading the Bible

00:11:58.660 --> 00:11:59.380
 is also for

00:11:59.380 --> 00:12:00.060
 accountability.

00:12:01.140 --> 00:12:02.200
 Because so many

00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:02.520
 of you,

00:12:02.580 --> 00:12:03.040
 and I've had

00:12:03.040 --> 00:12:03.740
 this conversation

00:12:03.740 --> 00:12:05.060
 and my heart

00:12:05.060 --> 00:12:05.940
 breaks with you

00:12:05.940 --> 00:12:06.800
 and for you

00:12:06.800 --> 00:12:07.580
 through this,

00:12:07.760 --> 00:12:08.320
 is that so many

00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:08.620
 people say,

00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:08.860
 like,

00:12:08.940 --> 00:12:09.120
 Bo,

00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:10.040
 and I believe

00:12:10.040 --> 00:12:10.860
 this about you.

00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:12.640
 I've been there.

00:12:12.760 --> 00:12:13.480
 Sometimes I even

00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:14.140
 am there.

00:12:15.260 --> 00:12:16.420
 I want,

00:12:16.760 --> 00:12:18.620
 I want to read

00:12:18.620 --> 00:12:19.700
 the Bible,

00:12:19.980 --> 00:12:21.320
 but I struggle.

00:12:22.340 --> 00:12:23.500
 I struggle

00:12:23.500 --> 00:12:24.660
 with understanding

00:12:24.660 --> 00:12:26.260
 the Bible.

00:12:27.300 --> 00:12:28.240
 And it is

00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:29.780
 complex.

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:31.980
 There are parts

00:12:31.980 --> 00:12:32.620
 of it that are,

00:12:32.880 --> 00:12:33.420
 that seem to be

00:12:33.420 --> 00:12:34.060
 more simple,

00:12:34.500 --> 00:12:35.000
 parts of it

00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:35.360
 that seem to be

00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:35.620
 a little bit

00:12:35.620 --> 00:12:36.280
 more difficult.

00:12:37.520 --> 00:12:37.660
 Well,

00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:38.260
 a sermon series

00:12:38.260 --> 00:12:38.600
 that we're going

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:39.360
 to do in the

00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.300
 fall is on

00:12:41.300 --> 00:12:41.760
 Daniel.

00:12:43.020 --> 00:12:43.300
 Right?

00:12:43.760 --> 00:12:44.260
 I'm going to tell

00:12:44.260 --> 00:12:44.400
 you,

00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:45.220
 that's going to,

00:12:45.220 --> 00:12:45.680
 it's going to

00:12:45.680 --> 00:12:46.380
 stretch you,

00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:46.780
 it's going to

00:12:46.780 --> 00:12:47.400
 stretch me,

00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:47.880
 it's going to

00:12:47.880 --> 00:12:48.840
 stretch my brain,

00:12:49.020 --> 00:12:49.300
 it's going to

00:12:49.300 --> 00:12:50.200
 stretch my heart.

00:12:50.400 --> 00:12:50.540
 Like,

00:12:50.560 --> 00:12:51.100
 I can't wait to

00:12:51.100 --> 00:12:51.460
 see what all

00:12:51.460 --> 00:12:51.900
 God's going to

00:12:51.900 --> 00:12:53.420
 do through this.

00:12:54.100 --> 00:12:55.120
 And it can be

00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:56.500
 a difficult process

00:12:56.500 --> 00:12:57.520
 and a difficult

00:12:57.520 --> 00:12:57.920
 journey.

00:12:58.260 --> 00:12:58.880
 But I began to

00:12:58.880 --> 00:12:59.600
 see and like

00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:00.240
 think through

00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:01.240
 and hear like

00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:01.760
 six things

00:13:01.760 --> 00:13:02.020
 I want to

00:13:02.020 --> 00:13:02.360
 give you

00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:02.820
 this morning

00:13:02.820 --> 00:13:04.080
 as we talk

00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:04.580
 about this,

00:13:04.860 --> 00:13:05.840
 of the reasons

00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:06.540
 why people

00:13:06.540 --> 00:13:07.740
 struggle in

00:13:07.740 --> 00:13:09.120
 understanding and

00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:10.360
 properly applying

00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:10.780
 the Bible.

00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:11.780
 And like,

00:13:12.020 --> 00:13:12.200
 man,

00:13:12.280 --> 00:13:13.180
 this is fingers

00:13:13.180 --> 00:13:13.740
 toward you,

00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:14.580
 fingers toward me,

00:13:14.780 --> 00:13:15.320
 like I'm in

00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:15.940
 this with you.

00:13:16.380 --> 00:13:17.640
 Number one is

00:13:17.640 --> 00:13:17.900
 this,

00:13:17.980 --> 00:13:18.740
 a struggle that

00:13:18.740 --> 00:13:19.300
 people have.

00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:20.880
 Let's be

00:13:20.880 --> 00:13:21.540
 completely candid

00:13:21.540 --> 00:13:22.120
 with one another.

00:13:22.760 --> 00:13:23.920
 a lack of commitment

00:13:23.920 --> 00:13:24.300
 and a lack

00:13:24.300 --> 00:13:24.820
 of discipline.

00:13:27.400 --> 00:13:27.640
 All right?

00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:29.180
 Lack of

00:13:29.180 --> 00:13:29.740
 commitment and

00:13:29.740 --> 00:13:30.160
 a lack of

00:13:30.160 --> 00:13:30.560
 discipline.

00:13:31.700 --> 00:13:32.440
 Have a plan.

00:13:33.680 --> 00:13:34.140
 Have a plan.

00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:34.540
 I heard somebody

00:13:34.540 --> 00:13:35.440
 say this the other

00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:35.660
 day.

00:13:36.100 --> 00:13:36.440
 They said,

00:13:37.020 --> 00:13:37.940
 any plan is

00:13:37.940 --> 00:13:38.600
 better than no

00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:39.460
 plan, but some

00:13:39.460 --> 00:13:40.140
 plans are better

00:13:40.140 --> 00:13:40.580
 than others.

00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:42.700
 Any plan is

00:13:42.700 --> 00:13:43.300
 better than no

00:13:43.300 --> 00:13:44.440
 plan, but some

00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:45.060
 plans are better

00:13:45.060 --> 00:13:45.500
 than others.

00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:47.300
 It's a lack of

00:13:47.300 --> 00:13:47.580
 commitment.

00:13:47.700 --> 00:13:48.260
 It's a lack of

00:13:48.260 --> 00:13:48.600
 discipline.

00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:49.980
 What you and

00:13:49.980 --> 00:13:51.460
 I need, if

00:13:51.460 --> 00:13:52.040
 we're going to

00:13:52.040 --> 00:13:53.440
 be the Bible

00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:54.340
 readers, the

00:13:54.340 --> 00:13:55.820
 Bible understanders,

00:13:56.260 --> 00:13:56.960
 the Bible

00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:58.340
 application that

00:13:58.340 --> 00:13:59.440
 God has called

00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:00.560
 us to, is that

00:14:00.560 --> 00:14:01.980
 you and I

00:14:01.980 --> 00:14:03.320
 need a plan.

00:14:05.680 --> 00:14:06.580
 So here's what

00:14:06.580 --> 00:14:07.120
 we're here for.

00:14:07.900 --> 00:14:08.380
 If you don't

00:14:08.380 --> 00:14:09.120
 have a plan, let

00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:09.460
 us help you

00:14:09.460 --> 00:14:10.240
 formulate a plan.

00:14:11.180 --> 00:14:12.180
 So many tools,

00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:13.460
 so many resources,

00:14:13.620 --> 00:14:14.600
 so many opportunities

00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:15.400
 that you can.

00:14:15.500 --> 00:14:16.520
 We want to

00:14:16.520 --> 00:14:17.360
 help you in

00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:18.020
 your commitment

00:14:18.020 --> 00:14:18.740
 and in your

00:14:18.740 --> 00:14:19.420
 discipline.

00:14:19.660 --> 00:14:20.220
 And I'll tell

00:14:20.220 --> 00:14:20.700
 you what we'll

00:14:20.700 --> 00:14:21.440
 do through the

00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:21.960
 course of this

00:14:21.960 --> 00:14:22.200
 week.

00:14:22.400 --> 00:14:23.320
 If you make a

00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:23.820
 commitment, I'm

00:14:23.820 --> 00:14:24.100
 going to tell you

00:14:24.100 --> 00:14:24.420
 at the end of

00:14:24.420 --> 00:14:24.940
 the message, the

00:14:24.940 --> 00:14:25.300
 verse that we're

00:14:25.300 --> 00:14:25.560
 going to talk

00:14:25.560 --> 00:14:26.120
 about next week,

00:14:26.260 --> 00:14:26.860
 and if you make

00:14:26.860 --> 00:14:27.440
 a commitment to

00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:28.280
 be here at

00:14:28.280 --> 00:14:29.420
 9 a.m.,

00:14:29.420 --> 00:14:31.060
 then you'll have

00:14:31.060 --> 00:14:31.580
 the opportunity

00:14:31.580 --> 00:14:32.180
 to talk about

00:14:32.180 --> 00:14:32.760
 what we have

00:14:32.760 --> 00:14:33.560
 and to continue

00:14:33.560 --> 00:14:34.260
 to see forward

00:14:34.260 --> 00:14:35.080
 as we keep

00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:35.640
 moving forward

00:14:35.640 --> 00:14:36.140
 with what God

00:14:36.140 --> 00:14:36.720
 has for us.

00:14:37.060 --> 00:14:37.720
 So number one,

00:14:37.820 --> 00:14:38.460
 a lack of

00:14:38.460 --> 00:14:39.520
 commitment and

00:14:39.520 --> 00:14:39.960
 discipline.

00:14:40.260 --> 00:14:41.420
 The second is

00:14:41.420 --> 00:14:41.920
 we have to

00:14:41.920 --> 00:14:42.500
 understand that

00:14:42.500 --> 00:14:43.660
 reading the

00:14:43.660 --> 00:14:45.460
 Bible is a

00:14:45.460 --> 00:14:46.940
 spiritual process.

00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:49.240
 reading the

00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:50.760
 Bible is a

00:14:50.760 --> 00:14:52.600
 spiritual process.

00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:55.800
 It's a work of

00:14:55.800 --> 00:14:57.260
 what God is

00:14:57.260 --> 00:14:59.320
 going to do in

00:14:59.320 --> 00:15:00.760
 and through the

00:15:00.760 --> 00:15:01.700
 person who is

00:15:01.700 --> 00:15:02.760
 reading his

00:15:02.760 --> 00:15:03.080
 word.

00:15:04.760 --> 00:15:05.680
 So let me ask

00:15:05.680 --> 00:15:06.080
 you this.

00:15:07.380 --> 00:15:08.560
 If we understand

00:15:08.560 --> 00:15:09.180
 that reading the

00:15:09.180 --> 00:15:10.000
 Bible is a

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:11.000
 spiritual process,

00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:12.100
 do we do

00:15:12.100 --> 00:15:13.000
 spiritual things

00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:13.520
 as we prepare

00:15:13.520 --> 00:15:14.000
 to open his

00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:14.220
 word?

00:15:15.180 --> 00:15:15.880
 Do you begin

00:15:15.880 --> 00:15:16.440
 with prayer?

00:15:18.100 --> 00:15:18.920
 God, whatever

00:15:18.920 --> 00:15:20.020
 you have for me,

00:15:20.160 --> 00:15:21.240
 whatever your

00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:22.160
 word says,

00:15:22.260 --> 00:15:22.660
 Lord, through the

00:15:22.660 --> 00:15:23.160
 power of your

00:15:23.160 --> 00:15:23.620
 Holy Spirit,

00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:24.200
 would you teach

00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:24.400
 me?

00:15:25.740 --> 00:15:25.920
 Right?

00:15:27.140 --> 00:15:28.560
 like, that's

00:15:28.560 --> 00:15:29.540
 why I pray

00:15:29.540 --> 00:15:31.760
 every single

00:15:31.760 --> 00:15:33.420
 Sunday morning

00:15:33.420 --> 00:15:34.100
 before I

00:15:34.100 --> 00:15:34.400
 preach.

00:15:35.400 --> 00:15:35.940
 It's a

00:15:35.940 --> 00:15:36.760
 spiritual process

00:15:36.760 --> 00:15:37.380
 of what God

00:15:37.380 --> 00:15:38.400
 is going to

00:15:38.400 --> 00:15:38.600
 do.

00:15:38.940 --> 00:15:39.760
 Number two,

00:15:39.920 --> 00:15:40.800
 do you seek

00:15:40.800 --> 00:15:41.180
 to be

00:15:41.180 --> 00:15:41.780
 transformed?

00:15:43.300 --> 00:15:44.120
 To see

00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:44.860
 change, to

00:15:44.860 --> 00:15:45.980
 experience change

00:15:45.980 --> 00:15:47.120
 in your life?

00:15:47.280 --> 00:15:48.120
 And then with

00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:49.020
 that, are we

00:15:49.020 --> 00:15:50.640
 honestly, and

00:15:50.640 --> 00:15:52.000
 this, man, this

00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:52.680
 got me this

00:15:52.680 --> 00:15:53.680
 week, like as

00:15:53.680 --> 00:15:54.660
 we read, are we

00:15:54.660 --> 00:15:55.240
 looking to

00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:55.600
 repent?

00:15:56.820 --> 00:15:57.200
 Are we

00:15:57.200 --> 00:15:57.800
 looking to

00:15:57.800 --> 00:15:59.040
 repent for

00:15:59.040 --> 00:15:59.620
 God to bring

00:15:59.620 --> 00:16:00.140
 us to that

00:16:00.140 --> 00:16:00.480
 space?

00:16:00.680 --> 00:16:01.760
 So, a lack of

00:16:01.760 --> 00:16:02.700
 commitment, do

00:16:02.700 --> 00:16:03.240
 you read the

00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:03.820
 Bible, do you

00:16:03.820 --> 00:16:04.280
 understand that

00:16:04.280 --> 00:16:04.760
 it's a spiritual

00:16:04.760 --> 00:16:05.260
 process?

00:16:05.680 --> 00:16:06.300
 Number three,

00:16:07.880 --> 00:16:08.720
 are you not

00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:09.800
 using outside

00:16:09.800 --> 00:16:10.240
 sources?

00:16:11.700 --> 00:16:13.060
 We live in a

00:16:13.060 --> 00:16:13.740
 world where

00:16:13.740 --> 00:16:14.500
 there's so many

00:16:14.500 --> 00:16:15.240
 opportunities when

00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:16.220
 we struggle with

00:16:16.220 --> 00:16:16.840
 the Bible that

00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:17.660
 there are outside

00:16:17.660 --> 00:16:18.740
 sources that God

00:16:18.740 --> 00:16:19.760
 has used through

00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:20.860
 the blessing of

00:16:20.860 --> 00:16:22.000
 technology, through

00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:22.700
 the blessing of

00:16:22.700 --> 00:16:23.740
 education, through

00:16:23.740 --> 00:16:24.480
 the blessing of

00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:25.500
 books, through

00:16:25.500 --> 00:16:26.300
 the blessing of

00:16:26.300 --> 00:16:26.620
 others?

00:16:26.780 --> 00:16:27.820
 Are we using

00:16:27.820 --> 00:16:29.540
 outside sources to

00:16:29.540 --> 00:16:29.760
 help?

00:16:29.800 --> 00:16:30.080
 And we're going

00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:30.600
 to be building

00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:31.860
 some of these and

00:16:31.860 --> 00:16:32.480
 working with you

00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:33.460
 guys to help so

00:16:33.460 --> 00:16:34.340
 that we can grow

00:16:34.340 --> 00:16:34.940
 and that we can

00:16:34.940 --> 00:16:35.300
 learn.

00:16:35.640 --> 00:16:36.080
 I'm going to tell

00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:36.980
 you, one of the

00:16:36.980 --> 00:16:38.100
 wonderful things

00:16:38.100 --> 00:16:38.660
 that God has

00:16:38.660 --> 00:16:39.340
 blessed me with is

00:16:39.340 --> 00:16:40.100
 a library and

00:16:40.100 --> 00:16:40.860
 resources that I

00:16:40.860 --> 00:16:41.940
 can draw from and

00:16:41.940 --> 00:16:42.800
 I can pull from and

00:16:42.800 --> 00:16:43.520
 I can read from

00:16:43.520 --> 00:16:44.800
 godly individuals who

00:16:44.800 --> 00:16:45.400
 have studied the

00:16:45.400 --> 00:16:46.000
 scripture and the

00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:46.620
 power of the Holy

00:16:46.620 --> 00:16:47.460
 Spirit that depend

00:16:47.460 --> 00:16:47.920
 on Him.

00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:48.900
 We come together

00:16:48.900 --> 00:16:49.660
 for this.

00:16:51.260 --> 00:16:52.100
 Using outside

00:16:52.100 --> 00:16:52.740
 sources.

00:16:54.180 --> 00:16:54.560
 But then number

00:16:54.560 --> 00:16:56.200
 four, are we

00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:57.860
 overusing outside

00:16:57.860 --> 00:17:00.380
 sources instead of

00:17:00.380 --> 00:17:00.980
 trusting the Holy

00:17:00.980 --> 00:17:01.300
 Spirit?

00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:03.660
 Because if it is a

00:17:03.660 --> 00:17:05.100
 spiritual process and

00:17:05.100 --> 00:17:06.120
 the Holy Spirit

00:17:06.120 --> 00:17:09.380
 dwells in me and

00:17:09.380 --> 00:17:10.520
 He enlightens and

00:17:10.520 --> 00:17:11.780
 opens my mind to

00:17:11.780 --> 00:17:13.040
 understand and to

00:17:13.040 --> 00:17:14.260
 transform and change,

00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:15.140
 are we solely

00:17:15.140 --> 00:17:16.840
 looking for what the

00:17:16.840 --> 00:17:17.760
 educators have

00:17:17.760 --> 00:17:18.600
 taught us, the

00:17:18.600 --> 00:17:19.600
 seminarians have

00:17:19.600 --> 00:17:20.460
 taught us, our

00:17:20.460 --> 00:17:21.820
 pastors have taught

00:17:21.820 --> 00:17:22.520
 us, are we

00:17:22.520 --> 00:17:23.540
 depending on the

00:17:23.540 --> 00:17:24.240
 power of the Holy

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:25.380
 Spirit to teach

00:17:25.380 --> 00:17:25.760
 us?

00:17:27.340 --> 00:17:28.740
 The next is that

00:17:28.740 --> 00:17:29.740
 we're reading, or

00:17:29.740 --> 00:17:30.340
 a reason why we

00:17:30.340 --> 00:17:30.920
 struggle with

00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:31.780
 continuing to read

00:17:31.780 --> 00:17:32.340
 the Bible is that

00:17:32.340 --> 00:17:32.940
 we're reading the

00:17:32.940 --> 00:17:34.040
 Bible not attached

00:17:34.040 --> 00:17:35.660
 to community.

00:17:36.760 --> 00:17:38.780
 Not attached to

00:17:38.780 --> 00:17:39.240
 community.

00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:41.160
 Do you have a

00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:43.200
 place where you

00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:44.100
 can ask questions?

00:17:45.060 --> 00:17:46.440
 Do you have people

00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:47.580
 who can pour into

00:17:47.580 --> 00:17:47.960
 you?

00:17:48.540 --> 00:17:50.080
 And do you have

00:17:50.080 --> 00:17:51.280
 people that you

00:17:51.280 --> 00:17:52.100
 can pour into?

00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:54.300
 The Bible, when we

00:17:54.300 --> 00:17:54.980
 begin to see the

00:17:54.980 --> 00:17:56.240
 early church in Acts

00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:57.120
 chapter 2, what we

00:17:57.120 --> 00:17:57.960
 find, one of the very

00:17:57.960 --> 00:17:58.640
 first things that it

00:17:58.640 --> 00:17:59.340
 talks about the local

00:17:59.340 --> 00:18:00.260
 church, is that they

00:18:00.260 --> 00:18:01.280
 were devoted to the

00:18:01.280 --> 00:18:02.100
 apostles' teachings.

00:18:02.460 --> 00:18:03.240
 That in and amongst

00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:04.080
 the community of

00:18:04.080 --> 00:18:05.320
 individuals there, they

00:18:05.320 --> 00:18:06.700
 said, this is what we

00:18:06.700 --> 00:18:07.260
 are doing.

00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:09.340
 There's no first

00:18:09.340 --> 00:18:10.160
 person singular

00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:10.700
 pronouns.

00:18:12.300 --> 00:18:12.960
 It's we.

00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:15.200
 It's we.

00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:19.100
 And are you engaged

00:18:19.100 --> 00:18:20.940
 in a community of

00:18:20.940 --> 00:18:22.680
 people that can

00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:23.640
 help hold you

00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:24.980
 accountable, where

00:18:24.980 --> 00:18:26.260
 they can help you

00:18:26.260 --> 00:18:27.980
 answer questions, but

00:18:27.980 --> 00:18:28.820
 where you can also

00:18:28.820 --> 00:18:29.620
 have wonderful

00:18:29.620 --> 00:18:30.480
 discussions and

00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:32.320
 dialogue about the

00:18:32.320 --> 00:18:32.980
 truth of God's

00:18:32.980 --> 00:18:33.220
 word.

00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:34.800
 And then the last,

00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:35.440
 and I think this is

00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:36.940
 often times what most

00:18:36.940 --> 00:18:38.360
 of us struggle with

00:18:38.360 --> 00:18:40.300
 right now, I'm sorry,

00:18:40.420 --> 00:18:41.040
 what we most struggle

00:18:41.040 --> 00:18:41.840
 with is that we read

00:18:41.840 --> 00:18:42.560
 the Bible with an

00:18:42.560 --> 00:18:42.880
 agenda.

00:18:44.120 --> 00:18:45.020
 We read the Bible

00:18:45.020 --> 00:18:45.680
 with an agenda.

00:18:46.900 --> 00:18:48.380
 We read the Bible

00:18:48.380 --> 00:18:50.460
 oftentimes with the

00:18:50.460 --> 00:18:52.400
 agenda that I'm

00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:55.160
 right, let me prove

00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:55.880
 that I'm right.

00:18:57.520 --> 00:19:00.460
 Instead of God is

00:19:00.460 --> 00:19:03.740
 right, let me see

00:19:03.740 --> 00:19:06.500
 where I am wrong, and

00:19:06.500 --> 00:19:07.940
 let me see where I am

00:19:07.940 --> 00:19:08.260
 right.

00:19:09.360 --> 00:19:11.140
 We remove the agenda

00:19:11.140 --> 00:19:13.100
 and we come at it

00:19:13.100 --> 00:19:13.880
 through the beauty of

00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:14.380
 God's word.

00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:16.640
 There is nothing more

00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:18.220
 so as a staff, apart

00:19:18.220 --> 00:19:19.260
 from someone coming to

00:19:19.260 --> 00:19:20.320
 faith in Jesus Christ

00:19:20.320 --> 00:19:21.680
 as their personal Lord

00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:22.740
 and Savior, than we

00:19:22.740 --> 00:19:24.220
 desire more than to see

00:19:24.220 --> 00:19:26.120
 those who are saved

00:19:26.120 --> 00:19:27.260
 through the work of

00:19:27.260 --> 00:19:29.140
 Jesus Christ to grow in

00:19:29.140 --> 00:19:30.280
 their relationship and

00:19:30.280 --> 00:19:31.700
 obedience to Him by the

00:19:31.700 --> 00:19:32.340
 power of the Holy

00:19:32.340 --> 00:19:32.660
 Spirit.

00:19:33.500 --> 00:19:34.840
 And we want to equip you

00:19:34.840 --> 00:19:35.620
 to doing that.

00:19:36.540 --> 00:19:38.160
 Several years ago, for

00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:39.500
 our adults in our adult

00:19:39.500 --> 00:19:40.380
 ministry, we purchased

00:19:40.380 --> 00:19:41.100
 Right Now Media.

00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:41.940
 We pay for it every

00:19:41.940 --> 00:19:42.440
 single month.

00:19:42.540 --> 00:19:43.920
 It's a wonderful online

00:19:43.920 --> 00:19:44.900
 tools that you can have

00:19:44.900 --> 00:19:45.560
 the app, that you can

00:19:45.560 --> 00:19:46.060
 have all the things.

00:19:46.140 --> 00:19:47.160
 We've got cards back in

00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:48.440
 the back with QR codes

00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:49.240
 that you can scan and

00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:50.200
 download, and there's

00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:51.180
 Bible study after Bible

00:19:51.180 --> 00:19:52.180
 study after Bible study

00:19:52.180 --> 00:19:52.820
 after Bible study.

00:19:52.900 --> 00:19:53.500
 There's men's studies,

00:19:53.600 --> 00:19:54.200
 there's women's studies,

00:19:54.480 --> 00:19:55.640
 there's for married people,

00:19:55.760 --> 00:19:56.540
 there's for single people,

00:19:56.660 --> 00:19:57.620
 there's for books of the

00:19:57.620 --> 00:19:58.560
 Bible, there's for topics,

00:19:58.640 --> 00:19:59.420
 there's all these things,

00:19:59.540 --> 00:20:00.520
 and we've given it and

00:20:00.520 --> 00:20:01.200
 said, here you go.

00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:03.400
 Take this, use this, walk

00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:04.860
 along through this to help

00:20:04.860 --> 00:20:06.260
 you break down, dissect,

00:20:06.420 --> 00:20:07.440
 and understand the beauty

00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:08.080
 of God's word.

00:20:09.420 --> 00:20:12.400
 I sent Joel Van Ham and

00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:13.940
 Don Coulter a text message.

00:20:14.040 --> 00:20:15.120
 I said, hey, this is what

00:20:15.120 --> 00:20:15.620
 I'm going to be talking

00:20:15.620 --> 00:20:15.960
 about.

00:20:16.600 --> 00:20:18.080
 Could you point me towards

00:20:18.080 --> 00:20:19.040
 some words to be able to

00:20:19.040 --> 00:20:20.380
 share with our congregation

00:20:20.380 --> 00:20:21.880
 so that they know if they've

00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:23.000
 got a youth or they've got

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:24.180
 a child, how they can

00:20:24.180 --> 00:20:26.180
 better walk along, how you

00:20:26.180 --> 00:20:27.240
 can better walk along and

00:20:27.240 --> 00:20:28.440
 encourage them to engage in

00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:28.640
 this.

00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:30.980
 And they got giddy when I

00:20:30.980 --> 00:20:31.520
 said this.

00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:32.660
 So I'm going to read their

00:20:32.660 --> 00:20:33.260
 words, all right?

00:20:33.340 --> 00:20:34.120
 Here's from Joel.

00:20:34.780 --> 00:20:35.340
 Here's from Joel.

00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:37.440
 There are currently 32

00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:39.120
 youth and youth leaders

00:20:39.120 --> 00:20:41.460
 reading through the entire

00:20:41.460 --> 00:20:42.500
 Bible together.

00:20:43.520 --> 00:20:45.160
 We read one chapter a day.

00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:47.220
 We've been on our three-year

00:20:47.220 --> 00:20:48.640
 journey for about, for

00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:49.520
 almost a year.

00:20:50.320 --> 00:20:51.680
 We bounce between the Old

00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:52.580
 Testament and the New

00:20:52.580 --> 00:20:53.820
 Testament books, learning

00:20:53.820 --> 00:20:54.740
 how the Jewish people live

00:20:54.740 --> 00:20:55.840
 before Christ as well as

00:20:55.840 --> 00:20:57.260
 learning about our Savior's

00:20:57.260 --> 00:20:58.160
 life and what it means to

00:20:58.160 --> 00:20:59.040
 be an apprentice to Him.

00:20:59.660 --> 00:21:00.800
 A couple times a week, we

00:21:00.800 --> 00:21:02.900
 check in and ask or share

00:21:02.900 --> 00:21:04.740
 things gleaned from that

00:21:04.740 --> 00:21:05.360
 day's reading.

00:21:05.980 --> 00:21:07.760
 It is amazing seeing the

00:21:07.760 --> 00:21:08.820
 youth process through

00:21:08.820 --> 00:21:10.920
 difficult passages and how

00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:12.040
 those have strengthened their

00:21:12.040 --> 00:21:12.460
 faith.

00:21:13.440 --> 00:21:14.640
 Our youth team understands

00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:16.260
 how incredibly important it

00:21:16.260 --> 00:21:18.160
 is to learn how to study the

00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:19.960
 Bible when they are in a safe

00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:21.440
 home environment.

00:21:22.120 --> 00:21:23.580
 This learning tool developed at

00:21:23.580 --> 00:21:25.880
 this age will not only set a

00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:28.360
 precedent of importance, but a

00:21:28.360 --> 00:21:32.000
 good habit as they leave their

00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:32.580
 home.

00:21:33.620 --> 00:21:34.500
 All right, so parents, if you're

00:21:34.500 --> 00:21:35.800
 like, man, I got the teenager, I

00:21:35.800 --> 00:21:36.980
 want to connect them with this,

00:21:37.660 --> 00:21:39.140
 get with Joel, he'll get them

00:21:39.140 --> 00:21:41.400
 connected, and then you hop on

00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:42.500
 that journey with them.

00:21:43.720 --> 00:21:44.300
 Kids ministry.

00:21:44.940 --> 00:21:46.280
 You just heard our Bible story

00:21:46.940 --> 00:21:48.820
 buddies event that we have for

00:21:48.820 --> 00:21:49.580
 our little ones with

00:21:49.580 --> 00:21:50.600
 preschoolers where they get to

00:21:50.600 --> 00:21:52.000
 pick out and have all this fun

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:53.660
 stuff, toys all built into it.

00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:55.560
 Dawn says it's a fun and

00:21:55.560 --> 00:21:56.980
 exciting way to encourage your

00:21:56.980 --> 00:21:58.560
 child to want to learn about

00:21:58.560 --> 00:22:01.780
 God as they get a Bible story

00:22:01.780 --> 00:22:04.180
 book and a Bible buddy to

00:22:04.180 --> 00:22:05.880
 encourage reading of daily

00:22:05.880 --> 00:22:06.580
 devotions.

00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:07.760
 And she said, we just announced

00:22:07.760 --> 00:22:08.840
 this, like you can register for

00:22:08.840 --> 00:22:09.280
 this now.

00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:11.380
 If you don't already, like you

00:22:11.380 --> 00:22:12.620
 can, if you're not already a

00:22:12.620 --> 00:22:14.000
 part of this, like you can get

00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:15.480
 your preschoolers connected with

00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:15.740
 this.

00:22:15.960 --> 00:22:17.940
 And then she said to reinforce

00:22:17.940 --> 00:22:19.160
 what they do on Sunday

00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:19.740
 mornings, right?

00:22:20.560 --> 00:22:22.180
 Because if you heard her

00:22:22.180 --> 00:22:24.000
 testimony, right, like we are

00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:25.880
 not, we are not the primary

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:27.520
 disciple makers for your kids.

00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:28.380
 Parents, you are.

00:22:29.040 --> 00:22:29.520
 You are.

00:22:30.080 --> 00:22:31.060
 And we count it as a privilege

00:22:31.060 --> 00:22:32.060
 that you invite us into that

00:22:32.060 --> 00:22:33.640
 process, but we want to help

00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:35.240
 you grow in all this.

00:22:35.600 --> 00:22:36.740
 So she says, for our older

00:22:36.740 --> 00:22:38.700
 kids, the JTS show from our

00:22:38.700 --> 00:22:39.940
 Go curriculums, what they do

00:22:39.940 --> 00:22:41.100
 in the mornings, is posted

00:22:41.100 --> 00:22:43.240
 weekly after the Sunday lesson

00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:44.860
 to give opportunity for you

00:22:44.860 --> 00:22:46.380
 and your child to watch and

00:22:46.380 --> 00:22:48.720
 discuss the scripture and

00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:50.120
 questions together.

00:22:50.120 --> 00:22:51.680
 Now for copyright, we can't

00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:52.820
 just release that on our

00:22:52.820 --> 00:22:54.220
 website or on Facebook.

00:22:54.560 --> 00:22:55.920
 And so Dawn has sent this

00:22:55.920 --> 00:22:56.140
 out.

00:22:56.220 --> 00:22:57.300
 She's willing to do it

00:22:57.300 --> 00:22:57.580
 again.

00:22:57.720 --> 00:22:59.000
 So it's got to be password

00:22:59.000 --> 00:22:59.540
 protected.

00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:01.740
 So email or get with Dawn to

00:23:01.740 --> 00:23:03.260
 gain access to this

00:23:03.260 --> 00:23:03.760
 information.

00:23:05.220 --> 00:23:06.380
 What are we saying?

00:23:07.500 --> 00:23:10.460
 It's not just about coming

00:23:10.460 --> 00:23:12.300
 and what does the preacher

00:23:12.300 --> 00:23:13.160
 have to say.

00:23:16.220 --> 00:23:18.800
 It's a very inadequate way

00:23:18.800 --> 00:23:23.840
 for you and me to say,

00:23:23.840 --> 00:23:26.540
 how do I take what's in God's

00:23:26.540 --> 00:23:29.180
 word, understand it, process

00:23:29.180 --> 00:23:31.280
 it, and apply it to my life.

00:23:31.600 --> 00:23:33.660
 And it's a daily commitment

00:23:33.660 --> 00:23:36.440
 of a spiritual work of what

00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:38.180
 God is calling us to do.

00:23:39.680 --> 00:23:43.500
 And it's so important because

00:23:43.500 --> 00:23:46.880
 we live in a world of lies,

00:23:47.100 --> 00:23:49.180
 but we want to stand on the

00:23:49.180 --> 00:23:50.880
 truth of God's word.

00:23:55.960 --> 00:23:57.160
 And how can we apply the

00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:00.260
 truth if we don't know it?

00:24:02.060 --> 00:24:03.580
 If we don't spend time in it?

00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:06.060
 I mean, look at the beauty as

00:24:06.060 --> 00:24:09.420
 Paul writes to Timothy in 2

00:24:09.420 --> 00:24:10.260
 Timothy 3.

00:24:12.560 --> 00:24:14.720
 All Scripture is breathed out by

00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:15.200
 God.

00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:17.740
 Every word.

00:24:19.740 --> 00:24:22.640
 And profitable for teaching,

00:24:23.380 --> 00:24:27.060
 for reproof, for correction,

00:24:27.060 --> 00:24:29.400
 and for training.

00:24:33.760 --> 00:24:34.760
 The man of God

00:24:34.760 --> 00:24:38.260
 might be complete,

00:24:39.820 --> 00:24:40.400
 equipped

00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:42.800
 for every

00:24:42.800 --> 00:24:44.060
 good

00:24:44.060 --> 00:24:45.180
 work.

00:24:47.760 --> 00:24:49.100
 There's some theological

00:24:49.100 --> 00:24:50.500
 terms that we draw from

00:24:50.500 --> 00:24:52.880
 this, which is why we hold

00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:59.460
 to the Bible is the primary

00:24:59.460 --> 00:25:01.220
 source that we use to teach.

00:25:02.500 --> 00:25:04.640
 Because we believe in this, and we

00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:05.800
 believe from this.

00:25:06.080 --> 00:25:08.260
 Here are some phrases, some words

00:25:08.260 --> 00:25:08.820
 we're going to throw on the

00:25:08.820 --> 00:25:10.180
 screen as we work through this

00:25:10.180 --> 00:25:11.720
 this week of the importance, or

00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:12.700
 this summer, the importance of

00:25:12.700 --> 00:25:14.620
 this series, is that we believe

00:25:14.620 --> 00:25:16.300
 these things about God's word.

00:25:16.600 --> 00:25:17.940
 Number one, that we believe that

00:25:17.940 --> 00:25:19.080
 God's word is inspired.

00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:21.760
 We believe that God's word is

00:25:21.760 --> 00:25:22.220
 inspired.

00:25:22.360 --> 00:25:23.380
 And what we mean by that is

00:25:23.380 --> 00:25:24.960
 while the Bible was written by

00:25:24.960 --> 00:25:27.800
 over 40 authors over 1,500

00:25:27.800 --> 00:25:31.560
 years, every word in every part

00:25:31.560 --> 00:25:33.720
 of the Bible comes from

00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:34.240
 God.

00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:36.880
 And that means that the

00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:39.320
 inspiration extends

00:25:39.320 --> 00:25:43.820
 not just, extends to the very

00:25:43.820 --> 00:25:47.660
 words themselves, not just

00:25:47.660 --> 00:25:49.360
 concepts or ideas.

00:25:50.900 --> 00:25:53.780
 That every single word matters

00:25:53.780 --> 00:25:57.040
 and is a beautiful gift from

00:25:57.040 --> 00:25:57.480
 God.

00:25:58.480 --> 00:26:00.400
 And so inspiration extends to

00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:02.560
 all parts of scripture and all

00:26:02.560 --> 00:26:04.280
 subject matters of scripture

00:26:04.280 --> 00:26:05.560
 because we believe that God's

00:26:05.560 --> 00:26:06.800
 word is inspired.

00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:09.260
 The second thing is that we

00:26:09.260 --> 00:26:11.000
 believe that God's word is

00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:11.660
 authoritative.

00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:13.620
 Is authoritative.

00:26:14.700 --> 00:26:16.660
 And what we mean by authoritative

00:26:16.660 --> 00:26:20.940
 is the Bible is the ultimate and

00:26:20.940 --> 00:26:24.180
 infallible source of truth,

00:26:25.280 --> 00:26:29.060
 guidance and authority for Christians.

00:26:34.660 --> 00:26:35.440
 God's word.

00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:42.720
 This is the authority that we

00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:44.120
 apply to our life.

00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:50.300
 This goes beyond national affiliation.

00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:53.200
 This goes beyond political affiliation.

00:26:53.200 --> 00:26:56.400
 This goes beyond family affiliation.

00:26:56.740 --> 00:26:58.400
 This is the ultimate authority.

00:26:58.540 --> 00:26:59.480
 God's word.

00:27:00.560 --> 00:27:01.480
 In your life.

00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:02.540
 In my life.

00:27:03.180 --> 00:27:03.800
 Number three.

00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:05.280
 We believe that God's word is

00:27:05.280 --> 00:27:05.760
 inerrant.

00:27:06.600 --> 00:27:07.660
 Is inerrant.

00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:10.080
 We mean by that is the Bible

00:27:10.080 --> 00:27:13.560
 is without error.

00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:14.560
 Now,

00:27:15.040 --> 00:27:18.120
 you can go jump on YouTube

00:27:18.120 --> 00:27:23.800
 and dive in to a dark tunnel

00:27:23.800 --> 00:27:26.420
 of heresy.

00:27:28.420 --> 00:27:29.140
 Right?

00:27:30.320 --> 00:27:32.540
 There are issues

00:27:32.540 --> 00:27:34.980
 with translations.

00:27:36.420 --> 00:27:37.060
 Right?

00:27:37.140 --> 00:27:38.420
 The original languages

00:27:38.420 --> 00:27:39.860
 that this was written in.

00:27:40.180 --> 00:27:41.520
 Sometimes there's complications

00:27:41.520 --> 00:27:42.460
 in translations.

00:27:43.020 --> 00:27:44.440
 And so we work through that.

00:27:45.620 --> 00:27:47.800
 But the Bible is without error

00:27:47.800 --> 00:27:49.560
 because the Bible was the very

00:27:49.560 --> 00:27:50.520
 word of God.

00:27:50.620 --> 00:27:51.940
 And God is without error.

00:27:52.180 --> 00:27:53.600
 And the Bible was without error.

00:27:54.360 --> 00:27:55.040
 It's inerrant.

00:27:55.900 --> 00:27:56.880
 Number four.

00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:00.520
 The Bible is complete.

00:28:01.780 --> 00:28:03.300
 If you ever listen to someone

00:28:03.300 --> 00:28:03.900
 and they're like,

00:28:03.980 --> 00:28:04.120
 you know,

00:28:04.220 --> 00:28:06.980
 I heard a new word from the Lord.

00:28:07.360 --> 00:28:08.280
 No, they didn't.

00:28:09.660 --> 00:28:10.960
 And there's nothing to add to it.

00:28:11.900 --> 00:28:13.020
 God's word is full.

00:28:13.180 --> 00:28:14.200
 God's word is complete.

00:28:14.620 --> 00:28:16.340
 And all that God has to say to us

00:28:16.340 --> 00:28:18.040
 is what God has communicated to us

00:28:18.040 --> 00:28:19.080
 through His word.

00:28:20.200 --> 00:28:21.080
 Every point.

00:28:23.400 --> 00:28:26.280
 Complete through His scripture.

00:28:26.760 --> 00:28:27.620
 Nothing to add.

00:28:27.620 --> 00:28:28.580
 Nothing to take away.

00:28:29.320 --> 00:28:30.160
 It is complete.

00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:32.400
 We believe that God's word

00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:33.460
 is unified.

00:28:34.540 --> 00:28:35.740
 That God's word

00:28:35.740 --> 00:28:37.940
 tells a single coherent story

00:28:37.940 --> 00:28:39.500
 about God

00:28:39.500 --> 00:28:40.940
 and His plan

00:28:40.940 --> 00:28:42.000
 for humanity.

00:28:43.360 --> 00:28:45.160
 From Genesis to Revelation.

00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:47.680
 We see the thread

00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:48.900
 in the story of Jesus.

00:28:49.580 --> 00:28:51.220
 We see the rebellion

00:28:51.220 --> 00:28:52.820
 of God's people.

00:28:53.620 --> 00:28:55.060
 We see His love

00:28:55.060 --> 00:28:56.280
 and His pursuit

00:28:56.280 --> 00:28:57.260
 of them.

00:28:57.260 --> 00:28:58.980
 And we see His

00:28:58.980 --> 00:29:00.220
 and His only

00:29:00.220 --> 00:29:01.840
 means of salvation.

00:29:03.500 --> 00:29:04.980
 And we see that God's word

00:29:04.980 --> 00:29:05.600
 is sufficient.

00:29:06.460 --> 00:29:07.260
 It's sufficient.

00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:07.860
 The Bible

00:29:07.860 --> 00:29:09.260
 is sufficient

00:29:09.260 --> 00:29:11.740
 in that it is the only

00:29:11.740 --> 00:29:12.540
 inspired

00:29:12.540 --> 00:29:13.520
 and errant

00:29:13.520 --> 00:29:14.520
 word

00:29:14.520 --> 00:29:15.400
 and therefore

00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:16.900
 the final authority

00:29:16.900 --> 00:29:18.280
 for all Christians,

00:29:18.500 --> 00:29:19.160
 for faith,

00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:20.640
 for godliness.

00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:24.420
 And all we need

00:29:24.420 --> 00:29:25.880
 for salvation

00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:27.600
 is found

00:29:27.600 --> 00:29:28.660
 here.

00:29:29.660 --> 00:29:30.700
 Every part.

00:29:31.540 --> 00:29:32.700
 All we need

00:29:32.700 --> 00:29:33.600
 for salvation

00:29:33.600 --> 00:29:35.660
 is found here.

00:29:36.920 --> 00:29:37.100
 So,

00:29:38.480 --> 00:29:40.800
 why does this matter?

00:29:43.520 --> 00:29:44.480
 Turn with me

00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:45.740
 to Genesis chapter 2.

00:29:50.380 --> 00:29:51.480
 Why does this matter?

00:29:51.620 --> 00:29:51.760
 Like,

00:29:53.560 --> 00:29:54.900
 in all the issues

00:29:54.900 --> 00:29:56.380
 that we're facing

00:29:56.380 --> 00:29:57.120
 in the world,

00:29:58.900 --> 00:29:59.940
 why do we,

00:30:00.120 --> 00:30:01.040
 largely with a group

00:30:01.040 --> 00:30:01.440
 of you

00:30:01.440 --> 00:30:03.140
 who were here last week

00:30:03.140 --> 00:30:04.100
 who will be back here

00:30:04.100 --> 00:30:04.840
 with us next week

00:30:04.840 --> 00:30:05.640
 or who are followers

00:30:05.640 --> 00:30:06.080
 of Jesus,

00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:08.060
 why does this matter

00:30:08.060 --> 00:30:08.820
 that we take

00:30:08.820 --> 00:30:09.780
 a whole season

00:30:09.780 --> 00:30:11.360
 and we want to focus in

00:30:11.360 --> 00:30:12.160
 on making sure

00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:13.160
 that we understand

00:30:13.160 --> 00:30:13.940
 that not only

00:30:13.940 --> 00:30:15.140
 God's word is true,

00:30:16.500 --> 00:30:17.300
 why do we take

00:30:17.300 --> 00:30:17.800
 the time

00:30:17.800 --> 00:30:18.940
 to point out

00:30:18.940 --> 00:30:20.420
 and to pick out

00:30:20.420 --> 00:30:21.500
 where you and I

00:30:21.500 --> 00:30:22.200
 have misunderstood

00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:23.400
 and then maybe

00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:24.120
 misapplied

00:30:24.120 --> 00:30:25.380
 the truth of God's word?

00:30:26.380 --> 00:30:27.180
 I'll take you back

00:30:27.180 --> 00:30:27.800
 to the garden

00:30:27.800 --> 00:30:28.940
 for a moment.

00:30:30.280 --> 00:30:30.560
 Read me

00:30:30.560 --> 00:30:31.400
 Genesis 2

00:30:31.400 --> 00:30:33.080
 verses 15 through 18.

00:30:33.500 --> 00:30:33.740
 It says,

00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:35.160
 the Lord took the man

00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:35.580
 and put him

00:30:35.580 --> 00:30:36.040
 in the garden of Egypt

00:30:36.040 --> 00:30:36.600
 and the garden of Eden

00:30:36.600 --> 00:30:38.560
 to work it

00:30:38.560 --> 00:30:39.340
 and keep it.

00:30:40.460 --> 00:30:42.200
 And the Lord God

00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:43.480
 commanded the man

00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:43.960
 saying,

00:30:45.020 --> 00:30:46.100
 you may surely eat

00:30:46.100 --> 00:30:46.840
 of every tree

00:30:46.840 --> 00:30:47.580
 of the garden,

00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:49.420
 but of the tree

00:30:49.420 --> 00:30:50.240
 of the knowledge

00:30:50.240 --> 00:30:51.200
 of good and evil

00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:52.780
 you shall not eat,

00:30:53.640 --> 00:30:54.660
 for in the day

00:30:54.660 --> 00:30:55.900
 that you eat of it

00:30:55.900 --> 00:30:57.620
 you shall surely die.

00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:00.480
 then the Lord God

00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:01.140
 said,

00:31:01.140 --> 00:31:03.320
 it is not good

00:31:03.320 --> 00:31:04.080
 that the man

00:31:04.080 --> 00:31:04.980
 should be alone.

00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:06.860
 I will make

00:31:06.860 --> 00:31:07.660
 a helper

00:31:07.660 --> 00:31:08.780
 fit

00:31:08.780 --> 00:31:09.920
 for him.

00:31:11.520 --> 00:31:13.360
 So there's so much

00:31:13.360 --> 00:31:14.360
 that we can draw

00:31:14.360 --> 00:31:15.720
 in this early

00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:16.660
 creation account,

00:31:16.740 --> 00:31:17.340
 but I just want to

00:31:17.340 --> 00:31:18.200
 paint the picture

00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:19.240
 of the setting

00:31:19.240 --> 00:31:21.540
 of what we see

00:31:21.540 --> 00:31:22.260
 in God

00:31:22.260 --> 00:31:23.180
 and his kindness

00:31:23.180 --> 00:31:24.040
 and his goodness

00:31:24.040 --> 00:31:25.100
 and his mercy

00:31:25.100 --> 00:31:27.020
 before sin

00:31:27.020 --> 00:31:28.180
 enters into the world

00:31:28.180 --> 00:31:29.920
 of God's plan

00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:31.000
 and God's communication

00:31:31.000 --> 00:31:31.820
 for man.

00:31:32.660 --> 00:31:33.360
 What we look at

00:31:33.360 --> 00:31:33.900
 is we see

00:31:33.900 --> 00:31:35.260
 that God gives

00:31:35.260 --> 00:31:36.220
 right here

00:31:36.220 --> 00:31:37.140
 at this very beginning.

00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:37.660
 What we see

00:31:37.660 --> 00:31:38.080
 in Genesis

00:31:38.080 --> 00:31:39.360
 is purpose

00:31:39.360 --> 00:31:40.760
 through work.

00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:45.040
 So work

00:31:45.040 --> 00:31:46.700
 is of God

00:31:46.700 --> 00:31:47.240
 and work

00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:47.920
 is good

00:31:47.920 --> 00:31:48.600
 and work

00:31:48.600 --> 00:31:49.160
 has purpose

00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:49.660
 and meaning

00:31:49.660 --> 00:31:50.140
 and we see

00:31:50.140 --> 00:31:50.560
 that

00:31:50.560 --> 00:31:52.820
 in perfection

00:31:52.820 --> 00:31:55.420
 and we see

00:31:55.420 --> 00:31:56.920
 that man

00:31:56.920 --> 00:31:58.960
 has relationship

00:31:58.960 --> 00:32:00.420
 with God.

00:32:01.780 --> 00:32:03.160
 God said

00:32:03.160 --> 00:32:04.240
 to him

00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:05.760
 there's this

00:32:05.760 --> 00:32:06.760
 beautiful

00:32:06.760 --> 00:32:07.660
 encounter

00:32:07.660 --> 00:32:08.860
 of what we see

00:32:08.860 --> 00:32:10.320
 that Adam

00:32:10.320 --> 00:32:11.760
 has this experience

00:32:11.760 --> 00:32:13.020
 that you and I

00:32:13.020 --> 00:32:14.040
 we don't have

00:32:14.040 --> 00:32:14.640
 the same kind

00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:15.620
 of experience.

00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:17.720
 See this depth

00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:18.620
 of relationship.

00:32:19.740 --> 00:32:20.940
 God spoke.

00:32:21.580 --> 00:32:22.180
 He heard

00:32:22.180 --> 00:32:22.580
 there's this

00:32:22.580 --> 00:32:23.520
 peace that's there.

00:32:23.800 --> 00:32:24.280
 We see this

00:32:24.280 --> 00:32:25.360
 beautiful partnership

00:32:25.360 --> 00:32:26.400
 with a spouse.

00:32:28.140 --> 00:32:29.280
 Like in perfection

00:32:29.280 --> 00:32:32.380
 marriage is the plan.

00:32:34.780 --> 00:32:35.620
 And God looks

00:32:35.620 --> 00:32:37.660
 at man

00:32:37.660 --> 00:32:39.740
 and he goes

00:32:39.740 --> 00:32:41.680
 it's not good

00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:42.560
 that this guy

00:32:42.560 --> 00:32:43.180
 is alone.

00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:44.880
 Right?

00:32:45.700 --> 00:32:46.900
 He needs a helper

00:32:46.900 --> 00:32:47.920
 a helpmate

00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:49.440
 is how we translate

00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:49.900
 that word

00:32:49.900 --> 00:32:50.560
 a partner

00:32:50.560 --> 00:32:53.300
 fit for him.

00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:56.080
 And we see

00:32:56.080 --> 00:32:57.620
 we see

00:32:57.620 --> 00:32:57.980
 right here

00:32:57.980 --> 00:32:58.640
 at the beginning

00:32:58.640 --> 00:33:00.660
 the very word

00:33:00.660 --> 00:33:01.120
 of God.

00:33:02.340 --> 00:33:03.060
 The very word

00:33:03.060 --> 00:33:03.480
 of God.

00:33:05.960 --> 00:33:06.560
 God's word

00:33:06.560 --> 00:33:07.080
 spoken.

00:33:08.540 --> 00:33:09.220
 God's word

00:33:09.220 --> 00:33:09.780
 heard.

00:33:11.060 --> 00:33:11.740
 God's word

00:33:11.740 --> 00:33:12.820
 experienced.

00:33:13.940 --> 00:33:14.540
 God's word

00:33:14.540 --> 00:33:14.980
 lived.

00:33:16.840 --> 00:33:17.160
 Now

00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:17.980
 jump over

00:33:17.980 --> 00:33:19.260
 Genesis 3

00:33:19.260 --> 00:33:21.420
 verse 1.

00:33:24.940 --> 00:33:25.540
 Now

00:33:25.540 --> 00:33:26.340
 the serpent

00:33:26.340 --> 00:33:28.620
 was more

00:33:28.620 --> 00:33:29.500
 crafty

00:33:29.500 --> 00:33:31.440
 than any

00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:32.140
 other beast

00:33:32.140 --> 00:33:33.700
 of the field

00:33:33.700 --> 00:33:34.180
 that the

00:33:34.180 --> 00:33:34.740
 Lord God

00:33:34.740 --> 00:33:35.380
 had made.

00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:37.980
 He said

00:33:37.980 --> 00:33:38.340
 said to the

00:33:38.340 --> 00:33:38.700
 woman

00:33:38.700 --> 00:33:41.040
 did

00:33:41.040 --> 00:33:42.160
 God

00:33:42.160 --> 00:33:43.500
 actually

00:33:43.500 --> 00:33:44.500
 say

00:33:44.500 --> 00:33:48.060
 you

00:33:48.060 --> 00:33:48.700
 shall not

00:33:48.700 --> 00:33:49.200
 eat

00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:49.760
 of any

00:33:49.760 --> 00:33:50.140
 tree

00:33:50.140 --> 00:33:50.560
 in the

00:33:50.560 --> 00:33:50.940
 garden.

00:33:52.420 --> 00:33:53.080
 And the

00:33:53.080 --> 00:33:53.420
 woman

00:33:53.420 --> 00:33:54.000
 said to

00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:54.560
 the serpent

00:33:54.560 --> 00:33:56.300
 we may

00:33:56.300 --> 00:33:56.780
 eat of

00:33:56.780 --> 00:33:57.240
 the fruit

00:33:57.240 --> 00:33:57.540
 of the

00:33:57.540 --> 00:33:57.820
 trees

00:33:57.820 --> 00:33:58.100
 in the

00:33:58.100 --> 00:33:58.480
 garden

00:33:58.480 --> 00:33:59.100
 but God

00:33:59.100 --> 00:33:59.520
 said you

00:33:59.520 --> 00:33:59.940
 should not

00:33:59.940 --> 00:34:00.880
 eat of

00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:01.260
 the fruit

00:34:01.260 --> 00:34:01.540
 of the

00:34:01.540 --> 00:34:01.760
 tree

00:34:01.760 --> 00:34:02.100
 that is

00:34:02.100 --> 00:34:02.300
 in the

00:34:02.300 --> 00:34:02.500
 midst

00:34:02.500 --> 00:34:02.780
 of the

00:34:02.780 --> 00:34:03.080
 garden

00:34:03.080 --> 00:34:03.420
 neither

00:34:03.420 --> 00:34:03.960
 shall

00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:04.160
 you

00:34:04.160 --> 00:34:04.480
 touch

00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:04.660
 it

00:34:04.660 --> 00:34:04.900
 lest

00:34:04.900 --> 00:34:05.100
 you

00:34:05.100 --> 00:34:05.420
 die.

00:34:05.420 --> 00:34:07.160
 But the

00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:07.380
 serpent

00:34:07.380 --> 00:34:07.720
 said to

00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:08.060
 the woman

00:34:08.060 --> 00:34:08.600
 you will

00:34:08.600 --> 00:34:09.080
 not

00:34:09.080 --> 00:34:10.000
 surely

00:34:10.000 --> 00:34:10.400
 die

00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.440
 for God

00:34:12.440 --> 00:34:13.140
 knows

00:34:13.140 --> 00:34:14.400
 that when

00:34:14.400 --> 00:34:14.820
 you eat

00:34:14.820 --> 00:34:15.220
 of it

00:34:15.220 --> 00:34:16.620
 your eyes

00:34:16.620 --> 00:34:16.900
 will be

00:34:16.900 --> 00:34:17.320
 opened

00:34:17.320 --> 00:34:18.820
 and you

00:34:18.820 --> 00:34:19.160
 will be

00:34:19.160 --> 00:34:20.200
 like God

00:34:20.200 --> 00:34:21.240
 knowing

00:34:21.240 --> 00:34:21.820
 good

00:34:21.820 --> 00:34:23.080
 and evil.

00:34:25.080 --> 00:34:25.840
 So when

00:34:25.840 --> 00:34:26.120
 the woman

00:34:26.120 --> 00:34:26.880
 saw the

00:34:26.880 --> 00:34:27.120
 tree

00:34:27.120 --> 00:34:28.140
 was good

00:34:28.140 --> 00:34:28.860
 for food

00:34:28.860 --> 00:34:30.700
 and that

00:34:30.700 --> 00:34:31.060
 it was a

00:34:31.060 --> 00:34:31.560
 delight to

00:34:31.560 --> 00:34:32.340
 the eyes

00:34:32.340 --> 00:34:34.560
 and that

00:34:34.560 --> 00:34:35.100
 the tree

00:34:35.100 --> 00:34:36.200
 was desired

00:34:36.200 --> 00:34:36.620
 to make

00:34:36.620 --> 00:34:37.340
 one wise

00:34:37.340 --> 00:34:38.240
 she took

00:34:38.240 --> 00:34:38.620
 of its

00:34:38.620 --> 00:34:39.000
 fruit

00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:40.200
 and ate

00:34:40.200 --> 00:34:43.620
 and she

00:34:43.620 --> 00:34:44.020
 also

00:34:44.020 --> 00:34:45.960
 gave some

00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:46.440
 to her

00:34:46.440 --> 00:34:46.920
 husband

00:34:46.920 --> 00:34:49.500
 who was

00:34:49.500 --> 00:34:50.200
 with her

00:34:50.200 --> 00:34:53.280
 and he

00:34:53.280 --> 00:34:53.700
 ate

00:34:53.700 --> 00:34:55.560
 and then

00:34:55.560 --> 00:34:56.260
 the eyes

00:34:56.260 --> 00:34:57.420
 of both

00:34:57.420 --> 00:34:58.120
 were open

00:34:58.120 --> 00:34:59.740
 and they

00:34:59.740 --> 00:35:00.060
 knew they

00:35:00.060 --> 00:35:00.540
 were naked

00:35:00.540 --> 00:35:01.960
 and they

00:35:01.960 --> 00:35:02.500
 sewed fig

00:35:02.500 --> 00:35:02.760
 leaves

00:35:02.760 --> 00:35:03.240
 together

00:35:03.240 --> 00:35:04.840
 and made

00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:05.580
 themselves

00:35:05.580 --> 00:35:06.980
 loincloths.

00:35:09.160 --> 00:35:09.880
 Here's

00:35:09.880 --> 00:35:10.700
 the danger

00:35:10.700 --> 00:35:11.920
 there's so

00:35:11.920 --> 00:35:12.320
 much

00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:13.460
 in this

00:35:13.460 --> 00:35:13.900
 passage

00:35:13.900 --> 00:35:14.460
 of scripture

00:35:14.460 --> 00:35:16.240
 in Genesis

00:35:16.240 --> 00:35:17.020
 3 about

00:35:17.020 --> 00:35:17.840
 the condition

00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:18.380
 of man

00:35:18.380 --> 00:35:18.740
 and the

00:35:18.740 --> 00:35:19.060
 pursuit

00:35:19.060 --> 00:35:19.460
 of flood

00:35:19.460 --> 00:35:20.100
 all these

00:35:20.100 --> 00:35:20.380
 things

00:35:20.380 --> 00:35:22.320
 but here's

00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:24.440
 brokenness

00:35:24.440 --> 00:35:24.820
 enters

00:35:24.820 --> 00:35:27.020
 sin

00:35:27.020 --> 00:35:27.600
 enters

00:35:27.600 --> 00:35:29.240
 there's

00:35:29.240 --> 00:35:29.960
 consequences

00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:30.840
 for their

00:35:30.840 --> 00:35:31.320
 actions

00:35:31.320 --> 00:35:32.180
 but I want

00:35:32.180 --> 00:35:32.820
 us to look

00:35:32.820 --> 00:35:33.280
 at this

00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:33.820
 encounter

00:35:33.820 --> 00:35:37.880
 they

00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:38.960
 did

00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:39.760
 Adam

00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:40.260
 and Eve

00:35:40.260 --> 00:35:40.720
 weren't in

00:35:40.720 --> 00:35:41.360
 the garden

00:35:41.360 --> 00:35:42.460
 one day

00:35:42.460 --> 00:35:45.060
 and

00:35:45.060 --> 00:35:45.960
 talking

00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:46.580
 through

00:35:46.580 --> 00:35:47.940
 what God

00:35:47.940 --> 00:35:48.480
 had for

00:35:48.480 --> 00:35:48.820
 them

00:35:48.820 --> 00:35:50.380
 in their

00:35:50.380 --> 00:35:50.880
 work

00:35:50.880 --> 00:35:53.460
 and just

00:35:53.460 --> 00:35:53.960
 decided

00:35:53.960 --> 00:35:54.580
 amongst the

00:35:54.580 --> 00:35:54.980
 two of

00:35:54.980 --> 00:35:55.380
 them

00:35:55.380 --> 00:35:57.060
 that they

00:35:57.060 --> 00:35:57.220
 were

00:35:57.220 --> 00:35:57.900
 dissatisfied

00:35:57.900 --> 00:36:00.560
 and walked

00:36:00.560 --> 00:36:01.060
 away

00:36:01.060 --> 00:36:02.840
 from their

00:36:02.840 --> 00:36:03.360
 purpose

00:36:03.360 --> 00:36:08.720
 but they

00:36:08.720 --> 00:36:09.940
 would

00:36:09.940 --> 00:36:12.400
 they

00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:13.080
 didn't

00:36:13.080 --> 00:36:13.720
 say

00:36:13.720 --> 00:36:14.320
 you know

00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:16.100
 God's

00:36:16.100 --> 00:36:16.400
 not

00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:17.560
 fair

00:36:17.560 --> 00:36:18.060
 to us

00:36:18.060 --> 00:36:18.460
 God's

00:36:18.460 --> 00:36:18.740
 not

00:36:18.740 --> 00:36:19.540
 good

00:36:19.540 --> 00:36:19.780
 to

00:36:19.780 --> 00:36:20.320
 us

00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:22.620
 and

00:36:22.620 --> 00:36:22.880
 let's

00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:23.260
 make the

00:36:23.260 --> 00:36:23.540
 choice

00:36:23.540 --> 00:36:24.080
 to walk

00:36:24.080 --> 00:36:24.520
 away

00:36:24.520 --> 00:36:25.400
 from their

00:36:25.400 --> 00:36:25.980
 relationship

00:36:25.980 --> 00:36:26.680
 with God

00:36:26.680 --> 00:36:27.560
 through their

00:36:27.560 --> 00:36:28.560
 experiences

00:36:28.560 --> 00:36:29.140
 and through

00:36:29.140 --> 00:36:29.440
 their

00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:30.800
 understandings

00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:32.180
 well they

00:36:32.180 --> 00:36:32.520
 will

00:36:32.520 --> 00:36:34.340
 but they

00:36:34.340 --> 00:36:34.800
 didn't

00:36:34.800 --> 00:36:36.520
 that's not

00:36:36.520 --> 00:36:36.820
 what we

00:36:36.820 --> 00:36:37.440
 see here

00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:41.060
 they

00:36:41.060 --> 00:36:41.860
 didn't

00:36:41.860 --> 00:36:44.320
 they

00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:44.620
 didn't

00:36:44.620 --> 00:36:45.260
 become

00:36:45.260 --> 00:36:48.440
 in what

00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:49.140
 we read

00:36:49.140 --> 00:36:53.320
 disgruntled

00:36:53.700 --> 00:36:54.060

00:36:56.500 --> 00:36:57.080
 walking around

00:36:57.080 --> 00:36:57.420
 and going

00:36:57.420 --> 00:36:58.720
 if there

00:36:58.720 --> 00:36:59.520
 were literally

00:36:59.520 --> 00:37:00.300
 any other

00:37:00.300 --> 00:37:01.000
 option I'd

00:37:01.000 --> 00:37:01.320
 take it

00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:01.840
 right now

00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:02.400
 you know

00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:06.900
 so where

00:37:06.900 --> 00:37:09.640
 does

00:37:09.640 --> 00:37:12.000
 the rub

00:37:12.000 --> 00:37:12.600
 come

00:37:12.600 --> 00:37:15.400
 where does

00:37:15.400 --> 00:37:16.260
 the fall

00:37:16.260 --> 00:37:18.360
 where does

00:37:18.360 --> 00:37:19.140
 break in

00:37:19.140 --> 00:37:19.840
 purpose

00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:21.580
 where does

00:37:21.580 --> 00:37:22.360
 break in

00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:23.260
 relationship

00:37:23.260 --> 00:37:25.340
 where does

00:37:25.340 --> 00:37:26.280
 break in

00:37:26.280 --> 00:37:27.000
 marriage

00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:28.200
 come from

00:37:28.200 --> 00:37:30.080
 they

00:37:30.080 --> 00:37:30.740
 listened

00:37:30.740 --> 00:37:31.620
 to

00:37:31.620 --> 00:37:32.200
 Satan

00:37:32.200 --> 00:37:34.420
 they

00:37:34.420 --> 00:37:35.340
 ignored

00:37:35.340 --> 00:37:36.900
 the word

00:37:36.900 --> 00:37:37.560
 of God

00:37:37.560 --> 00:37:39.860
 they

00:37:39.860 --> 00:37:40.640
 broke

00:37:40.640 --> 00:37:42.200
 from God's

00:37:42.200 --> 00:37:42.520
 word

00:37:42.520 --> 00:37:44.000
 here's the

00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:44.400
 caution

00:37:44.400 --> 00:37:46.920
 if you

00:37:46.920 --> 00:37:48.100
 and I

00:37:48.100 --> 00:37:49.140
 are not

00:37:49.140 --> 00:37:50.160
 active

00:37:50.160 --> 00:37:52.020
 and

00:37:52.020 --> 00:37:53.000
 invested

00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:54.860
 in the

00:37:54.860 --> 00:37:55.480
 truth

00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:56.660
 of God's

00:37:56.660 --> 00:37:57.580
 word

00:37:57.580 --> 00:38:00.040
 if we

00:38:00.040 --> 00:38:00.460
 become

00:38:00.460 --> 00:38:01.200
 lazy

00:38:01.200 --> 00:38:02.020
 in our

00:38:02.020 --> 00:38:02.740
 desire

00:38:02.740 --> 00:38:03.920
 to know

00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:04.840
 the word

00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:05.900
 of God

00:38:05.900 --> 00:38:07.640
 it can

00:38:07.640 --> 00:38:08.660
 be very

00:38:08.660 --> 00:38:10.100
 easy

00:38:10.100 --> 00:38:11.860
 in our

00:38:11.860 --> 00:38:12.360
 ear

00:38:12.360 --> 00:38:14.160
 to begin

00:38:14.160 --> 00:38:14.740
 to hear

00:38:14.740 --> 00:38:17.160
 did God

00:38:17.160 --> 00:38:17.760
 really say

00:38:17.760 --> 00:38:18.200
 that

00:38:18.200 --> 00:38:22.320
 God

00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:22.940
 wouldn't

00:38:22.940 --> 00:38:25.120
 God

00:38:25.120 --> 00:38:25.400
 wouldn't

00:38:25.400 --> 00:38:25.680
 limit

00:38:25.680 --> 00:38:26.160
 you

00:38:26.160 --> 00:38:27.740
 God

00:38:27.740 --> 00:38:28.000
 wouldn't

00:38:28.000 --> 00:38:28.320
 hold

00:38:28.320 --> 00:38:28.540
 you

00:38:28.540 --> 00:38:29.120
 back

00:38:29.120 --> 00:38:31.280
 go

00:38:31.280 --> 00:38:31.860
 after

00:38:31.860 --> 00:38:33.520
 you

00:38:33.520 --> 00:38:37.140
 if we

00:38:37.140 --> 00:38:37.500
 don't have

00:38:37.500 --> 00:38:38.280
 the foundation

00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:39.720
 of who

00:38:39.720 --> 00:38:40.200
 he is

00:38:40.200 --> 00:38:42.040
 in his

00:38:42.040 --> 00:38:42.420
 word

00:38:42.420 --> 00:38:44.120
 now

00:38:44.120 --> 00:38:44.620
 jump

00:38:44.620 --> 00:38:45.000
 with me

00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:45.160
 to

00:38:45.160 --> 00:38:45.380
 Luke

00:38:45.380 --> 00:38:45.780

00:39:01.200 --> 00:39:03.920
 we

00:39:03.920 --> 00:39:04.320
 see

00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:06.100
 Jesus

00:39:06.100 --> 00:39:07.860
 preparing

00:39:07.860 --> 00:39:08.320
 for his

00:39:08.320 --> 00:39:08.620
 earthly

00:39:08.620 --> 00:39:09.140
 ministry

00:39:09.140 --> 00:39:11.840
 Satan

00:39:11.840 --> 00:39:13.180

00:39:14.680 --> 00:39:16.560
 but

00:39:16.560 --> 00:39:16.740
 we'll

00:39:16.740 --> 00:39:17.020
 see a

00:39:17.020 --> 00:39:17.220
 different

00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:01.880
 is

00:43:01.880 --> 00:43:02.020
 a

00:43:02.020 --> 00:43:02.360
 general

00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:02.980
 promise

00:43:02.980 --> 00:43:03.200
 of

00:43:03.200 --> 00:43:03.480
 God

00:43:03.480 --> 00:43:03.640
 to

00:43:03.640 --> 00:43:03.800
 his

00:43:03.800 --> 00:43:04.140
 people

00:43:04.140 --> 00:43:04.520
 that

00:43:04.520 --> 00:43:04.820
 God

00:43:04.820 --> 00:43:05.020
 will

00:43:05.020 --> 00:43:05.400
 care

00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:05.760
 for

00:43:05.760 --> 00:43:05.920
 his

00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:06.260
 people

00:43:06.260 --> 00:43:07.020
 and

00:43:07.020 --> 00:43:07.300
 Satan

00:43:07.300 --> 00:43:07.900
 uses

00:43:07.900 --> 00:43:08.380
 this

00:43:08.380 --> 00:43:08.780
 as

00:43:08.780 --> 00:43:08.900
 an

00:43:08.900 --> 00:43:09.200
 attempt

00:43:09.200 --> 00:43:09.340
 to

00:43:09.340 --> 00:43:09.500
 get

00:43:09.500 --> 00:43:10.000
 Jesus

00:43:15.700 --> 00:43:16.100
 God

00:43:16.100 --> 00:43:16.240
 that

00:43:16.240 --> 00:43:16.360
 I

00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:16.760
 trust

00:43:16.760 --> 00:43:17.100
 it's

00:43:17.100 --> 00:43:17.220
 in

00:43:17.220 --> 00:43:17.400
 him

00:43:17.400 --> 00:43:17.860
 not

00:43:17.860 --> 00:43:18.080
 in

00:43:18.080 --> 00:43:18.360
 you

00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:19.080
 you

00:43:19.080 --> 00:43:19.200
 see

00:43:19.200 --> 00:43:19.380
 what

00:43:19.380 --> 00:43:19.900
 Satan

00:43:19.900 --> 00:43:20.280
 will

00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:20.700
 do

00:43:20.700 --> 00:43:21.080
 is

00:43:21.080 --> 00:43:21.300
 take

00:43:21.300 --> 00:43:21.500
 the

00:43:21.500 --> 00:43:22.120
 message

00:43:22.120 --> 00:43:22.500
 of

00:43:22.500 --> 00:43:22.820
 God's

00:43:22.820 --> 00:43:23.120
 word

00:43:23.120 --> 00:43:23.440
 and

00:43:23.440 --> 00:43:23.600
 try

00:43:23.600 --> 00:43:23.760
 to

00:43:23.760 --> 00:43:24.160
 twist

00:43:24.160 --> 00:43:24.400
 it

00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:24.740
 and

00:43:24.740 --> 00:43:25.300
 manipulate

00:43:25.300 --> 00:43:25.760
 it

00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:26.000
 to

00:43:26.000 --> 00:43:26.180
 get

00:43:26.180 --> 00:43:26.480
 you

00:43:26.480 --> 00:43:26.760
 to

00:43:26.760 --> 00:43:27.020
 actually

00:43:27.020 --> 00:43:27.460
 move

00:43:27.460 --> 00:43:27.940
 from

00:43:27.940 --> 00:43:28.120
 the

00:43:28.120 --> 00:43:28.680
 expectation

00:43:28.680 --> 00:43:28.940
 of

00:43:28.940 --> 00:43:29.200
 God

00:43:29.200 --> 00:43:29.500
 to

00:43:29.500 --> 00:43:29.700
 move

00:43:29.700 --> 00:43:30.280
 from

00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:30.520
 who

00:43:30.520 --> 00:43:30.880
 God

00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:31.300
 is

00:43:31.300 --> 00:43:33.180
 so

00:43:33.180 --> 00:43:33.320
 that

00:43:33.320 --> 00:43:33.460
 in

00:43:33.460 --> 00:43:33.660
 your

00:43:33.660 --> 00:43:34.040
 mind

00:43:34.040 --> 00:43:34.160
 and

00:43:34.160 --> 00:43:34.460
 my

00:43:34.460 --> 00:43:34.880
 mind

00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:35.640
 God

00:43:35.640 --> 00:43:36.240
 fails

00:43:36.240 --> 00:43:36.980
 and

00:43:36.980 --> 00:43:37.140
 he

00:43:37.140 --> 00:43:37.480
 wins

00:43:37.480 --> 00:43:37.820
 let me

00:43:37.820 --> 00:43:37.980
 give you

00:43:37.980 --> 00:43:38.320
 an example

00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:38.700
 of that

00:43:38.700 --> 00:43:44.820
 if you

00:43:44.820 --> 00:43:45.040
 ask

00:43:45.040 --> 00:43:45.500
 somebody

00:43:45.500 --> 00:43:47.920
 about

00:43:47.920 --> 00:43:48.360
 the story

00:43:48.360 --> 00:43:48.740
 of God

00:43:48.740 --> 00:43:51.160
 and they

00:43:51.160 --> 00:43:51.320
 say

00:43:51.320 --> 00:43:51.540
 something

00:43:51.540 --> 00:43:51.840
 like

00:43:51.840 --> 00:43:52.280
 you know

00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:53.240
 let me

00:43:53.240 --> 00:43:53.440
 tell you

00:43:53.440 --> 00:43:53.560
 who

00:43:53.560 --> 00:43:53.820
 God

00:43:53.820 --> 00:43:54.180
 is

00:43:54.180 --> 00:44:00.100
 God

00:44:00.100 --> 00:44:00.360
 loves

00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:00.460
 you

00:44:00.460 --> 00:44:00.640
 just

00:44:00.640 --> 00:44:00.860
 the way

00:44:00.860 --> 00:44:01.020
 you

00:44:01.020 --> 00:44:01.260
 are

00:44:01.260 --> 00:44:04.020
 and they

00:44:04.020 --> 00:44:04.380
 place a

00:44:04.380 --> 00:44:04.800
 period

00:44:04.800 --> 00:44:06.100
 there

00:44:06.100 --> 00:44:07.560
 let me

00:44:07.560 --> 00:44:07.780
 tell you

00:44:07.780 --> 00:44:08.060
 something

00:44:08.060 --> 00:44:10.580
 God

00:44:10.580 --> 00:44:11.240
 does

00:44:11.240 --> 00:44:11.820
 love

00:44:11.820 --> 00:44:12.080
 you

00:44:12.080 --> 00:44:14.680
 God

00:44:14.680 --> 00:44:15.200
 does

00:44:15.200 --> 00:44:15.540
 love

00:44:15.540 --> 00:44:15.700
 you

00:44:15.700 --> 00:44:15.920
 right

00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:16.080
 where

00:44:16.080 --> 00:44:16.260
 you're

00:44:16.260 --> 00:44:16.520
 at

00:44:16.520 --> 00:44:18.240
 God

00:44:18.240 --> 00:44:18.580
 does

00:44:18.580 --> 00:44:18.840
 love

00:44:18.840 --> 00:44:18.960
 you

00:44:18.960 --> 00:44:19.220
 just

00:44:19.220 --> 00:44:19.460
 the way

00:44:19.460 --> 00:44:19.620
 that

00:44:19.620 --> 00:44:19.760
 you

00:44:19.760 --> 00:44:20.040
 are

00:44:20.040 --> 00:44:21.880
 but

00:44:21.880 --> 00:44:22.400
 that

00:44:22.400 --> 00:44:23.200
 phrase

00:44:23.200 --> 00:44:23.740
 is not

00:44:23.740 --> 00:44:24.100
 met

00:44:24.100 --> 00:44:24.500
 with a

00:44:24.500 --> 00:44:25.260
 period

00:44:25.260 --> 00:44:26.520
 but

00:44:26.520 --> 00:44:26.840
 a

00:44:26.840 --> 00:44:28.660
 comma

00:44:28.660 --> 00:44:30.760
 when we

00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:30.960
 begin

00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:30.960
 begin

00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:31.140
 to

00:44:31.140 --> 00:44:31.560
 understand

00:44:31.560 --> 00:44:31.780
 the

00:44:31.780 --> 00:44:32.360
 story

00:44:32.360 --> 00:44:32.960
 of

00:44:32.960 --> 00:44:33.320
 God's

00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:33.760
 word

00:44:33.760 --> 00:44:34.620
 accurately

00:44:34.620 --> 00:44:35.380
 applied

00:44:35.380 --> 00:44:35.860
 to our

00:44:35.860 --> 00:44:36.160
 lives

00:44:36.160 --> 00:44:36.560
 that

00:44:36.560 --> 00:44:36.860
 yes

00:44:36.860 --> 00:44:37.080
 God

00:44:37.080 --> 00:44:37.340
 does

00:44:37.340 --> 00:44:37.660
 love

00:44:37.660 --> 00:44:38.000
 you

00:44:38.000 --> 00:44:38.780
 just

00:44:38.780 --> 00:44:39.220
 the way

00:44:39.220 --> 00:44:39.420
 that

00:44:39.420 --> 00:44:39.580
 you

00:44:39.580 --> 00:44:39.900
 are

00:44:39.900 --> 00:44:40.320
 but

00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:40.440
 he

00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:40.940
 desires

00:44:40.940 --> 00:44:41.220
 to

00:44:41.220 --> 00:44:41.560
 save

00:44:41.560 --> 00:44:41.700
 you

00:44:41.700 --> 00:44:41.860
 and

00:44:41.860 --> 00:44:42.280
 transform

00:44:42.280 --> 00:44:42.560
 you

00:44:42.560 --> 00:44:42.820
 by the

00:44:42.820 --> 00:44:43.180
 power

00:44:43.180 --> 00:44:43.460
 of the

00:44:43.460 --> 00:44:43.600
 Holy

00:44:43.600 --> 00:44:43.920
 Spirit

00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:47.520
 so

00:44:47.520 --> 00:44:47.680
 now

00:44:47.680 --> 00:44:47.800
 it's

00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:47.920
 not

00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:48.000
 a

00:44:48.000 --> 00:44:48.380
 manipulation

00:44:48.380 --> 00:44:48.700
 of

00:44:48.700 --> 00:44:48.960
 God's

00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:49.140
 word

00:44:49.140 --> 00:44:49.320
 for

00:44:49.320 --> 00:44:49.420
 me

00:44:49.420 --> 00:44:49.540
 to

00:44:49.540 --> 00:44:49.700
 stay

00:44:49.700 --> 00:44:49.800
 in

00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:49.980
 my

00:44:49.980 --> 00:44:50.260
 sin

00:44:50.260 --> 00:44:51.920
 but

00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:52.040
 it's

00:44:52.040 --> 00:44:52.180
 a

00:44:52.180 --> 00:44:52.540
 calling

00:44:52.540 --> 00:44:52.680
 of

00:44:52.680 --> 00:44:52.940
 God's

00:44:52.940 --> 00:44:53.300
 word

00:44:53.300 --> 00:44:54.540
 to

00:44:54.540 --> 00:44:55.020
 wrestle

00:44:55.020 --> 00:44:55.580
 with

00:44:55.580 --> 00:44:56.420
 to

00:44:56.420 --> 00:44:56.780
 see

00:44:56.780 --> 00:44:56.980
 the

00:44:56.980 --> 00:44:57.280
 power

00:44:57.280 --> 00:44:57.400
 of

00:44:57.400 --> 00:44:57.500
 the

00:44:57.500 --> 00:44:57.720
 Holy

00:44:57.720 --> 00:44:58.440
 Spirit

00:44:58.440 --> 00:44:59.640
 working

00:44:59.640 --> 00:45:00.060
 in

00:45:00.060 --> 00:45:00.380
 so

00:45:00.380 --> 00:45:00.620
 that

00:45:00.620 --> 00:45:01.040
 as

00:45:01.040 --> 00:45:01.320
 that

00:45:01.320 --> 00:45:01.620
 old

00:45:01.620 --> 00:45:02.160
 leaves

00:45:02.160 --> 00:45:02.320
 and

00:45:02.320 --> 00:45:02.660
 as

00:45:02.660 --> 00:45:02.860
 the

00:45:02.860 --> 00:45:03.080
 new

00:45:03.080 --> 00:45:03.460
 come

00:45:03.460 --> 00:45:04.020
 it

00:45:04.020 --> 00:45:04.200
 is

00:45:04.200 --> 00:45:05.320
 praise

00:45:05.320 --> 00:45:06.280
 for

00:45:06.280 --> 00:45:07.260
 God

00:45:07.260 --> 00:45:07.920
 because

00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:08.840
 God's

00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:09.620
 word

00:45:09.620 --> 00:45:10.420
 is

00:45:10.420 --> 00:45:11.160
 powerful

00:45:11.160 --> 00:45:12.620
 in

00:45:12.620 --> 00:45:12.880
 church

00:45:12.880 --> 00:45:13.120
 it's

00:45:13.120 --> 00:45:13.320
 our
