00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:11.580
 Welcome to the Willow Ridge Sermons podcast.

00:00:12.100 --> 00:00:14.000
 We're so glad you chose to listen today.

00:00:14.780 --> 00:00:18.620
 This week's message reflects on Joseph's journey in Genesis 50,

00:00:19.060 --> 00:00:23.220
 where he faces loss, forgiveness, and the fulfillment of God's promises.

00:00:23.880 --> 00:00:27.160
 As Joseph mourns his father and reassures his fearful brothers,

00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:31.340
 we see how God transforms what was meant for evil into good.

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:35.400
 His legacy of faith, integrity, and trust in God's plan

00:00:35.400 --> 00:00:38.480
 challenges us to consider our own reputation and purpose.

00:00:39.300 --> 00:00:41.740
 Join us as we look back on God's faithfulness

00:00:41.740 --> 00:00:44.220
 and move forward with confidence in his promises.

00:00:45.160 --> 00:00:45.960
 Thanks for listening.

00:00:56.040 --> 00:00:57.160
 Well, good morning.

00:00:57.980 --> 00:01:03.520
 If you have your Bibles, and I hope you do, I want to invite you to join us in Genesis chapter 50.

00:01:04.020 --> 00:01:09.360
 This is where we're going to be this morning as we are wrapping up our series in Genesis.

00:01:09.980 --> 00:01:13.040
 Next week, we're going to begin a new study of a different book of the Bible.

00:01:13.180 --> 00:01:16.340
 We're going to be looking at Titus, a short letter, three chapters.

00:01:16.460 --> 00:01:17.880
 I think we're doing it in five or six weeks.

00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:21.020
 But it's a good, good word from the Lord.

00:01:21.140 --> 00:01:26.280
 Excited as Pastor Dave and I are going to kind of rotate and doing some teaching through Titus.

00:01:26.340 --> 00:01:28.720
 So you want to be there as we read Apostle Paul.

00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:31.240
 He's sending this letter to Titus.

00:01:31.340 --> 00:01:33.460
 Titus is pastoring the church at Crete.

00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:37.600
 Crete is a wild and crazy place.

00:01:38.440 --> 00:01:46.660
 And it's the reminder, the importance, the urgency for Titus to stay on track,

00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:50.840
 be reminded of the faithfulness of God, and to be faithful to him.

00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:55.220
 Well, it is cough, cold, flu, RSV season.

00:01:55.560 --> 00:02:00.220
 As Dave was praying earlier, I heard all of your amens in forms of coughs.

00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:02.960
 And so I'm there with you in my cough this morning.

00:02:03.300 --> 00:02:08.280
 So if you could pray for me as we're preaching through this this morning for my throat.

00:02:08.660 --> 00:02:12.140
 And if all of a sudden I'm muting and unmuting my microphone,

00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:20.380
 just trying to avoid the booming cough that could ring through as I do not cough or sneeze quietly.

00:02:20.700 --> 00:02:23.120
 It's a violent thing that happens with me.

00:02:23.500 --> 00:02:25.860
 So just give me grace within there.

00:02:25.860 --> 00:02:32.940
 As we get started, I do want to read from our last chapter here in Genesis before we get to the whole chapter.

00:02:33.220 --> 00:02:38.100
 Just two verses that are going to be key and important and monumental for us this morning.

00:02:38.580 --> 00:02:41.560
 And it's found in Genesis 50, 19 through 20.

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:42.260
 It says this,

00:02:42.260 --> 00:03:09.140
 Would you join me in prayer?

00:03:10.420 --> 00:03:15.580
 God, I thank you for the wonderful opportunity and privilege it is to study your word.

00:03:16.880 --> 00:03:23.800
 God, I thank you as we wrap up this season of time that we've been studying your word, working through Genesis.

00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:30.780
 I thank you for the powerful truths as you've taught us and reminded us of who you are.

00:03:31.720 --> 00:03:37.260
 As you've taught us and reminded us of the powerfulness and the goodness of your hand.

00:03:38.860 --> 00:03:46.720
 Your grace and your grace and your mercy and your love for us, even in our rebellion.

00:03:48.160 --> 00:03:53.080
 God, as we study your word this morning, would you speak clearly to our hearts?

00:03:54.220 --> 00:04:00.160
 God, for those of us who know you and who are known by you and who love you,

00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:08.940
 God, may you create in us a greater depth of love and willingness of obedience on our part.

00:04:10.500 --> 00:04:14.800
 God, for those of us here who may not know Christ as their Lord and Savior,

00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.140
 that I pray today through the teaching of your word,

00:04:19.840 --> 00:04:21.460
 God, that they would come to know Christ.

00:04:22.340 --> 00:04:24.740
 And today would be their day of salvation.

00:04:25.900 --> 00:04:27.820
 And let's call these things in Jesus' name we pray.

00:04:28.580 --> 00:04:28.940
 Amen.

00:04:29.940 --> 00:04:30.260
 Amen.

00:04:30.700 --> 00:04:32.580
 A quick little recap of Genesis.

00:04:32.740 --> 00:04:37.980
 Some things that God's been teaching me as we've rolled through this long but wonderful book

00:04:37.980 --> 00:04:40.100
 of what God has for us.

00:04:41.880 --> 00:04:48.500
 We've seen from the very beginning of what we opened up with in Genesis chapter 1 of the hand of God at work.

00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:55.180
 Very specifically, the word of God at work as God spoke and creation came into being.

00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:57.280
 But we've seen God at work.

00:04:57.420 --> 00:04:58.400
 We've seen God working.

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:00.760
 We've seen him work in creative works.

00:05:00.860 --> 00:05:03.400
 We've seen God calling and choosing works.

00:05:03.520 --> 00:05:06.260
 We've seen God working in the lives of individuals.

00:05:06.780 --> 00:05:08.840
 We've seen God working in the lives of families.

00:05:08.940 --> 00:05:16.680
 And now we see the future of what God is doing as he is working in the life of what he will create for himself a nation.

00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:24.760
 And this over time and time again, while we pause, while we break, while we have to consider

00:05:24.760 --> 00:05:31.780
 that we see the working, moving hand of God continually at play in our life.

00:05:31.860 --> 00:05:40.080
 And it just reminds me, it encourages me, it strengthens me in my faith and in my hope when I look out into this world.

00:05:40.380 --> 00:05:44.140
 And sometimes our tendency can be to wonder, God, where are you?

00:05:44.880 --> 00:05:49.800
 And the answer to that of what we've seen throughout Genesis is God saying, I'm here, man.

00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:52.580
 I'm here and I'm working.

00:05:53.020 --> 00:05:53.800
 And I'm working.

00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:56.880
 Even when you don't see it, even when you don't know it.

00:05:57.740 --> 00:06:01.760
 As we've studied through and as we've looked at Genesis, we were reminded time and time again,

00:06:01.860 --> 00:06:04.800
 from Genesis 3 in the fall to the brokenness of man.

00:06:05.440 --> 00:06:13.380
 We've seen our propensity to wonder, to choose the lesser, even in spite of knowing and living it and experiencing the goodness of God.

00:06:13.380 --> 00:06:27.700
 That you and I and those like us, known and loved by him, can still find within ourselves the choosing of the less instead of choosing the greater of who he is and his desire for us.

00:06:27.900 --> 00:06:33.280
 But we see within the brokenness of man, God's desire to pursue us.

00:06:33.340 --> 00:06:35.820
 That we are his and that he is ours.

00:06:36.140 --> 00:06:41.280
 And while there is the brokenness in this world, that when we are found in him on the hope of Jesus Christ,

00:06:41.280 --> 00:06:49.420
 there is the wholeness of us being held in his hand and God's desire to pursue us.

00:06:51.180 --> 00:06:59.960
 We see within him the power of God, the creator, not only the giver and bringer of life, but the sustainer of your life.

00:07:00.960 --> 00:07:12.880
 And for me, as we've been working through within the patriarchs and seeing within there that the reminder that God and his work is greater than your work and my sin.

00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:23.680
 That we see of God continuing to work and to move, that in spite of every failure, every fault, every issue that man tries to bring to the table,

00:07:24.020 --> 00:07:25.680
 we see that God is greater than that.

00:07:25.780 --> 00:07:27.420
 His plan is greater than that.

00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:29.080
 His grace is greater than that.

00:07:29.260 --> 00:07:30.600
 His love is greater than that.

00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.600
 And so when we look through and we read Genesis, it can be...

00:07:37.200 --> 00:07:41.360
 I'm hoping that was the last, like, big one that I needed to get out, right?

00:07:42.440 --> 00:07:45.180
 But we see that in spite of that, God is greater.

00:07:45.940 --> 00:07:46.900
 God is greater.

00:07:47.440 --> 00:07:50.060
 And his plans are going to be seen through.

00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:58.740
 That when we see failure and failure and failure and we realize we can't, we see that even though we fail, that God can.

00:07:59.460 --> 00:08:00.580
 And that God does.

00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.440
 And that God fulfills all that he says that he's going to do.

00:08:06.420 --> 00:08:15.200
 And so as we read through this book that points out so many failures and the sinfulness of man,

00:08:15.820 --> 00:08:18.020
 we learn so much about our holy God.

00:08:18.880 --> 00:08:27.660
 His righteousness, his justice, his goodness, his love, his grace, and his kindness.

00:08:27.660 --> 00:08:46.260
 And it's this beautiful, beautiful picture of a holy, powerful, creative God creating for himself a people who desire to choose everything else but him.

00:08:46.260 --> 00:08:53.640
 But he continues to call, he continues to pursue, and he continues to save.

00:08:54.780 --> 00:09:02.220
 And praise God that that's the reality, not just of Genesis, but it's the reality of today.

00:09:03.540 --> 00:09:05.640
 And so this morning, we're going to wrap up.

00:09:05.740 --> 00:09:08.520
 We're going to look at chapter 50.

00:09:09.940 --> 00:09:16.460
 And we're going to see this story that comes to an end before it comes to a beginning in Exodus.

00:09:17.820 --> 00:09:21.160
 So I want you to join me in Genesis 50, verse 1.

00:09:22.260 --> 00:09:26.080
 So if you're here with us last week, but if not, Jacob dies.

00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:28.220
 The father dies.

00:09:28.380 --> 00:09:35.880
 And then Joseph, who a lot of this story has been based around, fell on his father's face and wept over him and kissed him.

00:09:37.160 --> 00:09:41.880
 And Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father.

00:09:42.780 --> 00:09:46.580
 So the physicians embalmed Israel, also Jacob.

00:09:47.860 --> 00:09:53.680
 Forty days were required for it, for that is how many are required for embalming.

00:09:54.500 --> 00:09:59.300
 And the Egyptians wept for him seventy days.

00:10:01.540 --> 00:10:08.280
 And when the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to the household of Pharaoh, saying,

00:10:08.520 --> 00:10:15.620
 If now I have found favor in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:24.700
 My father made me swear, saying, I'm about to die in my tomb that I have hid out for myself in the land of Canaan.

00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.300
 There you shall bury me.

00:10:26.780 --> 00:10:30.080
 Now, therefore, let me please go up and bury my father.

00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:36.040
 Then I will turn in Pharaoh to answer, go up and bury your father, as he made you swear.

00:10:36.520 --> 00:10:38.420
 So Joseph went up to bury his father.

00:10:38.420 --> 00:10:44.520
 With him he went up, all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

00:10:44.800 --> 00:10:48.780
 as well as the household of Joseph and his brothers and his father's household.

00:10:49.620 --> 00:10:53.300
 Only their children, their flocks, and their herds were left in the land of Goshen.

00:10:53.820 --> 00:10:57.700
 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen.

00:10:58.280 --> 00:10:59.380
 It was a great company.

00:11:00.140 --> 00:11:03.420
 When they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan,

00:11:03.700 --> 00:11:07.580
 they lamented there with a very great and grievous lamentation.

00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:11.140
 And he made a mourning for his father seven days.

00:11:11.880 --> 00:11:16.440
 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning on the threshing floor of Atad,

00:11:16.520 --> 00:11:19.300
 they said, This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians.

00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:23.500
 Therefore, the place was named Abel-Mezerim.

00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:26.160
 It is beyond the Jordan.

00:11:26.740 --> 00:11:29.600
 Thus his sons did for him as he had commanded them.

00:11:30.040 --> 00:11:36.400
 For his sons carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave at the fill of Mechpelah,

00:11:36.880 --> 00:11:43.920
 to the east of Mamre, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite to possess as a burying place.

00:11:44.100 --> 00:11:49.140
 After he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt with his brothers

00:11:49.140 --> 00:11:52.860
 and all who had gone up with him to bury his father.

00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:58.800
 I'm going to talk to you this morning in this first part of Scripture

00:11:58.800 --> 00:12:03.180
 as we look to the past about a word called reputation.

00:12:04.160 --> 00:12:07.900
 What we see here is the reputation of a man

00:12:07.900 --> 00:12:14.140
 who in his passing people respond with.

00:12:14.980 --> 00:12:16.920
 Jacob was mourned, the Scripture tells us,

00:12:17.140 --> 00:12:21.280
 for 70 days among the entire nation of Egypt.

00:12:21.620 --> 00:12:27.060
 Now, that would be considerable because of Joseph and Joseph's relationship with his dad

00:12:27.060 --> 00:12:29.560
 and Joseph and being one of the leaders of Egypt,

00:12:29.560 --> 00:12:35.620
 but it is significant to see that this nation who looks at an outsider,

00:12:35.780 --> 00:12:38.700
 this nation who looks at an outsider's family

00:12:38.700 --> 00:12:41.240
 because of the character and pieces of what they've seen,

00:12:41.340 --> 00:12:43.100
 decide within them that we're going to mourn.

00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:53.240
 Now, it's significant to know that a typical time period for mourning a royal official in Egypt was 72 days.

00:12:54.900 --> 00:12:55.660
 72.

00:12:57.100 --> 00:13:02.260
 But what we see here for Jacob was 70.

00:13:03.760 --> 00:13:04.320
 Respect.

00:13:06.320 --> 00:13:11.140
 We see in his reputation, Joseph goes to Pharaoh

00:13:11.140 --> 00:13:16.720
 and says that his father has made him swear that he would appeal,

00:13:16.780 --> 00:13:19.600
 that Jacob would be buried to appeal before Pharaoh,

00:13:19.920 --> 00:13:21.860
 that he could be buried in Canaan.

00:13:23.700 --> 00:13:27.620
 And out of respect of reputation,

00:13:29.140 --> 00:13:32.040
 Pharaoh agrees, and this is what we see.

00:13:33.040 --> 00:13:36.480
 The beautiful imagery of what God begins to paint for us

00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:41.660
 as we begin to understand the beautiful imagery of what God does with his church

00:13:41.660 --> 00:13:45.000
 as he plants a group of people that he's chosen for himself

00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:47.080
 in amongst a pagan group of people,

00:13:47.160 --> 00:13:50.360
 and what we find in here is that their reputation is commendable.

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:55.000
 While we know, oftentimes,

00:13:56.020 --> 00:13:58.800
 the dysfunction that even exists amongst them,

00:14:00.540 --> 00:14:05.680
 but we see that the reputation amongst them was commendable.

00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:09.620
 And actually this morning, as you look at your own life

00:14:09.620 --> 00:14:13.100
 and the reputation and the evidence of what your life leaves behind,

00:14:13.220 --> 00:14:16.140
 as you interact with those that God has placed in your path

00:14:16.140 --> 00:14:19.880
 that you and I have been called to live boldly for the gospel of Jesus Christ,

00:14:20.040 --> 00:14:22.180
 what does your reputation reflect?

00:14:23.680 --> 00:14:25.640
 What does your reputation show?

00:14:26.460 --> 00:14:30.440
 What story does your reputation tell?

00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:33.540
 What is your reputation amongst lost people?

00:14:34.200 --> 00:14:36.340
 What's your reputation amongst your family?

00:14:36.860 --> 00:14:39.380
 What's your reputation amongst the church?

00:14:40.320 --> 00:14:43.960
 You see, it wasn't just that those who knew of him mourned.

00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:47.760
 It wasn't just that those who just knew him closely mourned.

00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:50.160
 It's that we see within all of this,

00:14:50.300 --> 00:14:52.800
 surrounding in the country and in the family,

00:14:52.900 --> 00:14:55.040
 there was the mourning of this man.

00:14:56.060 --> 00:14:59.940
 Even though oftentimes his sons opposed and disappointed him

00:14:59.940 --> 00:15:01.280
 with the many things in their life,

00:15:01.540 --> 00:15:04.500
 they came to honor him and serve him as well.

00:15:05.520 --> 00:15:07.900
 Sometimes I think we can feel as Christians

00:15:07.900 --> 00:15:13.000
 that we should rise above the way the world looks at us

00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:17.660
 and the way that those around us look at us and perceive us to be.

00:15:17.920 --> 00:15:19.700
 And I'll say, in some instances, sure,

00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:21.860
 as we stand on the truth of God's word,

00:15:22.160 --> 00:15:24.500
 say whatever it is that you want to say about me

00:15:24.500 --> 00:15:27.640
 because I'm going to stand on what God has me to stand on.

00:15:27.740 --> 00:15:29.480
 But the question that I have for you today

00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:32.400
 is your reputation amongst the outsiders

00:15:32.400 --> 00:15:34.520
 because of the truth that we stand on in God's word,

00:15:34.520 --> 00:15:37.000
 or is your reputation from the outside

00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:40.160
 because of those when we step off of God's word for ourselves,

00:15:41.020 --> 00:15:42.880
 of what we have for us.

00:15:43.880 --> 00:15:47.020
 The Apostle Paul continually, in his letters

00:15:47.020 --> 00:15:50.360
 that he writes to the churches of what he addresses,

00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:52.460
 he continually says both,

00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:54.920
 here is what I have heard.

00:15:55.640 --> 00:15:58.940
 Here is what your reputation appears to be.

00:15:58.940 --> 00:16:03.020
 And in some of those, it's affirmations of the positive,

00:16:03.340 --> 00:16:05.700
 of the impact that they have in their community

00:16:05.700 --> 00:16:08.860
 and amongst one another for the gospel of Jesus Christ.

00:16:09.140 --> 00:16:12.500
 But sometimes it's in rebuking

00:16:12.500 --> 00:16:16.320
 because of the reputation that they have

00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:20.760
 as they carry for others for the gospel of Jesus Christ.

00:16:21.900 --> 00:16:24.140
 Paul says that it's of great importance

00:16:24.140 --> 00:16:26.380
 of what our reputation is

00:16:26.380 --> 00:16:28.660
 and what our reputation is founded on.

00:16:28.860 --> 00:16:31.900
 Is our reputation on Christ?

00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:36.120
 Jesus, in his own words, in Revelation 2 and 3,

00:16:36.460 --> 00:16:38.020
 says to the churches of Revelation,

00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:38.820
 here's the deal,

00:16:39.020 --> 00:16:42.180
 I know who you are.

00:16:43.060 --> 00:16:46.380
 So it's not just our reputation in the world,

00:16:47.380 --> 00:16:49.920
 but it's our accurate reputation

00:16:49.920 --> 00:16:52.400
 of who we are before him.

00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:55.380
 Does your life and my life

00:16:55.380 --> 00:16:58.440
 exhibit the biblical grace and truth

00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:01.160
 of who Jesus Christ is

00:17:01.160 --> 00:17:04.420
 and the impact that he's played in our lives

00:17:04.420 --> 00:17:08.080
 and the work that he's doing in our hearts

00:17:08.080 --> 00:17:09.660
 and in our lives

00:17:09.660 --> 00:17:14.200
 to carry the name of God

00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:16.060
 into this world?

00:17:17.180 --> 00:17:18.180
 That you and I,

00:17:18.600 --> 00:17:19.440
 the Bible tells us,

00:17:19.560 --> 00:17:21.860
 a word that we're described to be

00:17:21.860 --> 00:17:23.420
 as we carry the gospel

00:17:23.420 --> 00:17:24.880
 is we're ambassadors.

00:17:26.360 --> 00:17:27.980
 A neat thing about this word, ambassador,

00:17:28.140 --> 00:17:29.900
 when this word is used in Scripture,

00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:32.200
 the ambassador is the person

00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:33.100
 who goes out

00:17:33.100 --> 00:17:35.500
 and carries the authority

00:17:35.500 --> 00:17:36.860
 and the message

00:17:36.860 --> 00:17:39.280
 as if the king himself

00:17:39.280 --> 00:17:40.640
 were declaring it.

00:17:42.140 --> 00:17:43.380
 I find that oftentimes

00:17:43.380 --> 00:17:46.520
 that we want our reputations

00:17:46.520 --> 00:17:49.180
 to be based in the words

00:17:49.180 --> 00:17:50.120
 that we say

00:17:50.120 --> 00:17:52.440
 of I'll pray for you,

00:17:52.660 --> 00:17:53.620
 I love you,

00:17:53.940 --> 00:17:55.020
 I care for you,

00:17:55.020 --> 00:17:56.180
 but then sometimes

00:17:56.180 --> 00:17:57.040
 our actions

00:17:57.040 --> 00:17:58.720
 display things

00:17:58.720 --> 00:17:59.200
 that are different.

00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:02.980
 So what should our reputation

00:18:02.980 --> 00:18:04.420
 reflect in this world

00:18:04.420 --> 00:18:05.940
 that God has called us to?

00:18:06.600 --> 00:18:08.340
 What should our reputation

00:18:08.340 --> 00:18:09.980
 be marked with

00:18:09.980 --> 00:18:11.560
 and be reflective of

00:18:11.560 --> 00:18:12.820
 as we're called to carry

00:18:12.820 --> 00:18:14.560
 not just what we know

00:18:14.560 --> 00:18:15.660
 but who we are

00:18:15.660 --> 00:18:16.620
 into a world

00:18:16.620 --> 00:18:17.760
 that is lost

00:18:17.760 --> 00:18:18.380
 and broken

00:18:18.380 --> 00:18:19.040
 and dying?

00:18:20.060 --> 00:18:20.840
 God's grace

00:18:20.840 --> 00:18:22.880
 and the power of his truth.

00:18:23.860 --> 00:18:24.940
 Grace being God's

00:18:24.940 --> 00:18:26.120
 mercy on you

00:18:26.120 --> 00:18:27.140
 that God

00:18:27.140 --> 00:18:28.880
 does not give you

00:18:28.880 --> 00:18:29.420
 and I

00:18:29.420 --> 00:18:30.600
 what we deserve

00:18:30.600 --> 00:18:32.720
 but instead

00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:34.900
 he gives to us

00:18:34.900 --> 00:18:35.620
 based off of

00:18:35.620 --> 00:18:36.980
 what we do not deserve.

00:18:38.340 --> 00:18:38.920
 And so we begin

00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:39.580
 to understand

00:18:39.580 --> 00:18:40.720
 when we live

00:18:40.720 --> 00:18:41.540
 in the reality

00:18:41.540 --> 00:18:42.580
 of God's grace

00:18:42.580 --> 00:18:43.720
 it's not just

00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:45.140
 that I've been forgiven

00:18:45.140 --> 00:18:46.600
 but I'm called to forgive.

00:18:46.980 --> 00:18:47.800
 It's not just

00:18:47.800 --> 00:18:49.340
 that I've been loved

00:18:49.340 --> 00:18:51.100
 but I'm called to love.

00:18:51.300 --> 00:18:51.980
 It's not just

00:18:51.980 --> 00:18:52.560
 that I'm called

00:18:52.560 --> 00:18:53.460
 to have hope

00:18:53.460 --> 00:18:54.740
 but I'm to be a person

00:18:54.740 --> 00:18:55.400
 of hope.

00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:56.240
 It's not just

00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:57.000
 that I'm a person

00:18:57.000 --> 00:18:57.620
 who lives

00:18:57.620 --> 00:18:58.660
 in the peace

00:18:58.660 --> 00:19:00.100
 of my relationship

00:19:00.100 --> 00:19:00.700
 with God

00:19:00.700 --> 00:19:01.540
 but I'm to go

00:19:01.540 --> 00:19:02.600
 and to be a person

00:19:02.600 --> 00:19:03.040
 of peace

00:19:03.040 --> 00:19:03.580
 into the world

00:19:03.580 --> 00:19:04.340
 in which I live.

00:19:06.220 --> 00:19:07.340
 To understand

00:19:07.340 --> 00:19:09.040
 grace in our lives

00:19:09.040 --> 00:19:11.480
 causes for you

00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:12.220
 and I

00:19:12.220 --> 00:19:13.420
 to say

00:19:13.420 --> 00:19:14.220
 it's not about

00:19:14.220 --> 00:19:14.980
 my rights

00:19:14.980 --> 00:19:15.860
 here on this

00:19:15.860 --> 00:19:16.980
 earth

00:19:16.980 --> 00:19:19.740
 but it's about

00:19:19.740 --> 00:19:22.180
 the right

00:19:22.180 --> 00:19:22.700
 and the truth

00:19:22.700 --> 00:19:23.400
 of God's word.

00:19:24.900 --> 00:19:25.880
 So we live

00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:27.000
 and promote

00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:28.000
 share

00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:29.860
 God's grace

00:19:29.860 --> 00:19:31.600
 while not

00:19:31.600 --> 00:19:32.680
 backing down

00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:34.560
 from God's truth.

00:19:35.500 --> 00:19:36.740
 From God's truth.

00:19:36.900 --> 00:19:37.660
 The truth

00:19:37.660 --> 00:19:38.240
 of his word

00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:39.460
 of God's standard

00:19:39.460 --> 00:19:40.360
 of God's purpose

00:19:40.360 --> 00:19:40.960
 of what God's

00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:41.500
 trying to do.

00:19:42.180 --> 00:19:42.880
 We can never

00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:44.300
 break apart

00:19:44.300 --> 00:19:45.280
 or remove

00:19:45.280 --> 00:19:46.440
 grace and truth

00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:47.280
 because when grace

00:19:47.280 --> 00:19:48.280
 is removed from truth

00:19:48.280 --> 00:19:49.560
 it ceases to be grace

00:19:49.560 --> 00:19:50.040
 and when truth

00:19:50.040 --> 00:19:50.920
 is removed from grace

00:19:50.920 --> 00:19:52.220
 it ceases to be truth.

00:19:54.180 --> 00:19:55.320
 And so we unapologetically

00:19:55.320 --> 00:19:55.960
 stand

00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:57.740
 for the truth

00:19:57.740 --> 00:19:58.180
 of what God

00:19:58.180 --> 00:19:59.000
 has called us to.

00:19:59.700 --> 00:20:00.360
 The truth

00:20:00.360 --> 00:20:01.540
 of who Christ is.

00:20:02.120 --> 00:20:02.740
 The truth

00:20:02.740 --> 00:20:03.680
 of God's love.

00:20:03.780 --> 00:20:04.120
 The truth

00:20:04.120 --> 00:20:05.060
 of God's forgiveness.

00:20:05.260 --> 00:20:05.700
 The truth

00:20:05.700 --> 00:20:07.420
 of God's word

00:20:07.420 --> 00:20:09.700
 while living

00:20:09.700 --> 00:20:11.740
 as evidence

00:20:11.740 --> 00:20:13.320
 of grace

00:20:13.320 --> 00:20:14.000
 in this world.

00:20:15.540 --> 00:20:16.100
 Church

00:20:16.100 --> 00:20:17.520
 I'm not asking you

00:20:17.520 --> 00:20:19.320
 do your co-workers

00:20:19.320 --> 00:20:21.100
 do your neighbors

00:20:21.100 --> 00:20:22.900
 do the other parents

00:20:22.900 --> 00:20:24.900
 on your sports teams

00:20:24.900 --> 00:20:25.840
 or students

00:20:25.840 --> 00:20:27.360
 the other participants

00:20:27.360 --> 00:20:28.780
 on your sports teams

00:20:28.780 --> 00:20:29.660
 or the band

00:20:29.660 --> 00:20:30.080
 or whatever

00:20:30.080 --> 00:20:31.000
 that you have

00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:32.080
 know that you're

00:20:32.080 --> 00:20:33.060
 at church today.

00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:35.260
 I'm not asking you that.

00:20:36.700 --> 00:20:37.380
 It's easy

00:20:37.380 --> 00:20:38.460
 to click a share

00:20:38.460 --> 00:20:39.160
 to click a like

00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:40.220
 to mention in conversation

00:20:40.220 --> 00:20:41.340
 about being at church

00:20:41.340 --> 00:20:41.820
 on Sunday.

00:20:42.060 --> 00:20:42.680
 Here's what I'm going

00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:43.380
 to ask you

00:20:43.380 --> 00:20:45.160
 is when they interact

00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:45.840
 with you

00:20:45.840 --> 00:20:47.180
 is there the evidence

00:20:47.180 --> 00:20:47.980
 of the fruit

00:20:47.980 --> 00:20:49.180
 in your life

00:20:49.180 --> 00:20:50.400
 not that you've been

00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:51.000
 to church

00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:52.380
 but is there the evidence

00:20:52.380 --> 00:20:52.980
 and the fruit

00:20:52.980 --> 00:20:53.660
 of your life

00:20:53.660 --> 00:20:54.740
 of a relationship

00:20:54.740 --> 00:20:55.820
 with Jesus Christ?

00:20:57.680 --> 00:20:58.600
 Is it their part

00:20:58.600 --> 00:21:00.120
 that they can taste

00:21:00.120 --> 00:21:01.140
 and see

00:21:01.140 --> 00:21:01.940
 that the Lord

00:21:01.940 --> 00:21:02.440
 is good?

00:21:03.520 --> 00:21:04.620
 Is there a part

00:21:04.620 --> 00:21:05.480
 within you

00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:06.740
 of what they gather

00:21:06.740 --> 00:21:07.180
 around

00:21:07.180 --> 00:21:07.900
 when they're like

00:21:07.900 --> 00:21:08.300
 you know what

00:21:08.300 --> 00:21:09.540
 I don't believe

00:21:09.540 --> 00:21:11.460
 everything that you believe

00:21:11.460 --> 00:21:12.640
 but there's a goodness

00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:13.860
 of being around you

00:21:13.860 --> 00:21:14.720
 and I want to know

00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:15.800
 more about that.

00:21:18.520 --> 00:21:19.520
 Is it evident?

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:21.820
 Is it clear?

00:21:23.160 --> 00:21:23.820
 I think sometimes

00:21:23.820 --> 00:21:24.460
 we say

00:21:24.460 --> 00:21:26.260
 I just want to be

00:21:26.260 --> 00:21:27.060
 the hands and feet

00:21:27.060 --> 00:21:27.740
 of Jesus

00:21:27.740 --> 00:21:28.900
 well then

00:21:28.900 --> 00:21:30.580
 go be like Jesus.

00:21:33.740 --> 00:21:34.920
 What's your reputation?

00:21:36.520 --> 00:21:37.500
 And is it found

00:21:37.500 --> 00:21:39.500
 and centered in Christ?

00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:41.500
 Well if you've been

00:21:41.500 --> 00:21:42.560
 studying this with us

00:21:42.560 --> 00:21:43.220
 you know that

00:21:43.220 --> 00:21:44.460
 there's some conflict

00:21:44.460 --> 00:21:45.280
 with this family

00:21:45.280 --> 00:21:48.760
 specifically with

00:21:48.760 --> 00:21:50.420
 Joseph and his brothers

00:21:50.420 --> 00:21:52.940
 and kind of the part

00:21:52.940 --> 00:21:54.100
 that holds the family

00:21:54.100 --> 00:21:56.000
 together is dad.

00:21:57.000 --> 00:21:57.140
 Right?

00:21:57.260 --> 00:21:59.100
 Joseph was dad's favorite.

00:21:59.280 --> 00:21:59.700
 You wouldn't want

00:21:59.700 --> 00:22:01.020
 to disappoint dad.

00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:02.300
 So with all of these

00:22:02.300 --> 00:22:03.340
 and so there's this

00:22:03.340 --> 00:22:04.300
 tension that's there

00:22:04.300 --> 00:22:05.400
 Jacob or Israel

00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:06.040
 is kind of holding

00:22:06.040 --> 00:22:06.640
 it all together

00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:07.700
 like you probably

00:22:07.700 --> 00:22:08.780
 know who that person

00:22:08.780 --> 00:22:10.120
 is in your family

00:22:10.120 --> 00:22:10.420
 right?

00:22:10.500 --> 00:22:11.260
 Like when things

00:22:11.260 --> 00:22:11.800
 get tense

00:22:11.800 --> 00:22:12.620
 you look to grandma

00:22:12.620 --> 00:22:13.680
 when things get tense

00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:14.640
 you look to dad

00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:15.540
 when things get tense

00:22:15.540 --> 00:22:16.620
 you look to that person

00:22:16.620 --> 00:22:17.300
 that's within there

00:22:17.300 --> 00:22:18.280
 and they're kind of

00:22:18.280 --> 00:22:18.940
 the linchpin

00:22:18.940 --> 00:22:19.920
 well now

00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:20.960
 within this

00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:23.120
 Jacob dies

00:22:23.120 --> 00:22:25.040
 and these brothers

00:22:25.040 --> 00:22:26.000
 that done horrific

00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:27.060
 things to their brother

00:22:27.060 --> 00:22:28.460
 because of their

00:22:28.460 --> 00:22:29.600
 jealousy toward him

00:22:29.600 --> 00:22:30.820
 because he's dad's

00:22:30.820 --> 00:22:31.220
 favorite

00:22:31.220 --> 00:22:32.900
 kind of have a panic

00:22:32.900 --> 00:22:33.340
 moment.

00:22:35.480 --> 00:22:36.980
 Let's see verse 15

00:22:36.980 --> 00:22:40.660
 when Joseph's brothers

00:22:40.660 --> 00:22:41.960
 saw that their father

00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:42.660
 was dead

00:22:42.660 --> 00:22:44.160
 they said

00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:45.960
 it may be

00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:47.240
 that Joseph

00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:48.320
 will hate us

00:22:48.320 --> 00:22:49.840
 and pay us back

00:22:49.840 --> 00:22:50.960
 for all the evil

00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:51.840
 we did to him.

00:22:52.720 --> 00:22:53.960
 So they sent a message

00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:55.100
 to Joseph

00:22:55.100 --> 00:22:55.820
 saying

00:22:55.820 --> 00:22:57.420
 your father

00:22:57.420 --> 00:22:58.500
 gave this command

00:22:58.500 --> 00:22:59.480
 before he died

00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:02.120
 say to Joseph

00:23:02.120 --> 00:23:04.260
 please forgive

00:23:04.260 --> 00:23:06.180
 the transgression

00:23:06.180 --> 00:23:07.320
 of your brothers

00:23:07.320 --> 00:23:08.640
 and their sin

00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:10.440
 because they did

00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:11.560
 evil to you

00:23:11.560 --> 00:23:13.280
 and now

00:23:13.280 --> 00:23:14.160
 please forgive

00:23:14.160 --> 00:23:15.340
 the transgression

00:23:15.340 --> 00:23:16.940
 of the servants

00:23:16.940 --> 00:23:18.060
 of the God

00:23:18.060 --> 00:23:19.300
 of your father

00:23:19.300 --> 00:23:21.980
 and Joseph

00:23:21.980 --> 00:23:22.520
 wept

00:23:22.520 --> 00:23:23.280
 when they spoke

00:23:23.280 --> 00:23:23.740
 to him

00:23:23.740 --> 00:23:26.160
 his brothers

00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:27.140
 also came

00:23:27.140 --> 00:23:28.500
 and fell down

00:23:28.500 --> 00:23:29.300
 before him

00:23:29.300 --> 00:23:29.780
 and said

00:23:29.780 --> 00:23:31.240
 behold

00:23:31.240 --> 00:23:32.540
 we are your servants

00:23:32.540 --> 00:23:35.260
 but Joseph

00:23:35.260 --> 00:23:36.100
 said to them

00:23:36.100 --> 00:23:38.320
 do not fear

00:23:38.320 --> 00:23:40.440
 for am I

00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:41.200
 in the place

00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:42.380
 of God

00:23:42.380 --> 00:23:45.480
 as for you

00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:46.360
 you meant evil

00:23:46.360 --> 00:23:47.220
 against me

00:23:47.220 --> 00:23:49.020
 but God

00:23:49.020 --> 00:23:49.840
 meant it for good

00:23:49.840 --> 00:23:52.520
 to bring it about

00:23:52.520 --> 00:23:53.400
 that many people

00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:55.760
 should be kept alive

00:23:55.760 --> 00:23:58.140
 as they are today

00:23:58.140 --> 00:24:00.720
 so do not fear

00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:02.620
 I will provide

00:24:02.620 --> 00:24:03.200
 for you

00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:05.220
 and your little ones

00:24:05.220 --> 00:24:08.120
 thus he comforted

00:24:08.120 --> 00:24:08.420
 them

00:24:08.420 --> 00:24:09.820
 and spoke

00:24:09.820 --> 00:24:10.760
 kindly to them

00:24:10.760 --> 00:24:12.980
 so Joseph

00:24:12.980 --> 00:24:14.340
 remained in Egypt

00:24:14.340 --> 00:24:15.960
 he and his

00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:16.780
 father's house

00:24:16.780 --> 00:24:18.880
 Joseph lived

00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:19.940
 110 years

00:24:19.940 --> 00:24:21.880
 and Joseph

00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:22.520
 saw

00:24:22.520 --> 00:24:23.940
 Ephraim's children

00:24:23.940 --> 00:24:24.580
 in the third

00:24:24.580 --> 00:24:25.140
 generation

00:24:25.140 --> 00:24:27.040
 the children

00:24:27.040 --> 00:24:27.040
 the children

00:24:27.040 --> 00:24:27.480
 also

00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:28.180
 of Micah

00:24:28.180 --> 00:24:28.680
 the son

00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:30.020
 of Manasseh

00:24:30.020 --> 00:24:30.460
 were counted

00:24:30.460 --> 00:24:30.960
 as Joseph

00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:32.880
 and Joseph

00:24:32.880 --> 00:24:33.460
 said to his

00:24:33.460 --> 00:24:33.820
 brothers

00:24:33.820 --> 00:24:35.280
 I'm about

00:24:35.280 --> 00:24:35.760
 to die

00:24:35.760 --> 00:24:37.280
 but God

00:24:37.280 --> 00:24:37.760
 will visit

00:24:37.760 --> 00:24:38.120
 you

00:24:38.120 --> 00:24:39.180
 and bring

00:24:39.180 --> 00:24:39.540
 you up

00:24:39.540 --> 00:24:40.040
 out of this

00:24:40.040 --> 00:24:40.460
 land

00:24:40.460 --> 00:24:41.620
 to the land

00:24:41.620 --> 00:24:41.880
 that he

00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:42.220
 swore to

00:24:42.220 --> 00:24:42.620
 Abraham

00:24:42.620 --> 00:24:44.080
 to Isaac

00:24:44.080 --> 00:24:44.900
 and to

00:24:44.900 --> 00:24:45.260
 Jacob

00:24:45.260 --> 00:24:47.040
 then Joseph

00:24:47.040 --> 00:24:47.500
 made the

00:24:47.500 --> 00:24:48.040
 sons of

00:24:48.040 --> 00:24:48.460
 Israel

00:24:48.460 --> 00:24:48.860
 swear

00:24:48.860 --> 00:24:49.340
 saying

00:24:49.340 --> 00:24:50.440
 God

00:24:50.440 --> 00:24:50.600
 will

00:24:50.600 --> 00:24:50.840
 surely

00:24:50.840 --> 00:24:51.200
 visit

00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:51.480
 you

00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:52.680
 and you

00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:52.840
 shall

00:24:52.840 --> 00:24:53.080
 carry

00:24:53.080 --> 00:24:53.240
 up

00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:53.420
 my

00:24:53.420 --> 00:24:53.760
 bones

00:24:53.760 --> 00:24:54.360
 from

00:24:54.360 --> 00:24:54.580
 here

00:24:54.580 --> 00:24:55.760
 so

00:24:55.760 --> 00:24:56.080
 Joseph

00:24:56.080 --> 00:24:56.540
 died

00:24:56.540 --> 00:24:57.540
 being

00:24:57.540 --> 00:24:57.920
 110

00:24:57.920 --> 00:24:58.780
 years

00:24:58.780 --> 00:24:59.060
 old

00:24:59.060 --> 00:25:00.260
 they

00:25:00.260 --> 00:25:00.860
 embalmed

00:25:00.860 --> 00:25:01.180
 him

00:25:01.180 --> 00:25:02.080
 and he

00:25:02.080 --> 00:25:02.520
 was put

00:25:02.520 --> 00:25:03.400
 in a

00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:03.700
 coffin

00:25:03.700 --> 00:25:04.500
 in

00:25:04.500 --> 00:25:04.840
 Egypt

00:25:04.840 --> 00:25:06.260
 right

00:25:06.260 --> 00:25:08.400
 so

00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:08.640
 dad

00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:09.120
 dies

00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:11.540
 and here's

00:25:11.540 --> 00:25:12.180
 what happens

00:25:12.180 --> 00:25:13.520
 you know

00:25:13.520 --> 00:25:13.980
 we've been

00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:14.580
 seeing

00:25:14.580 --> 00:25:15.240
 in

00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:15.880
 Joseph's

00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:16.380
 brothers

00:25:16.380 --> 00:25:18.520
 steps

00:25:18.520 --> 00:25:18.960
 of what

00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:19.320
 God's

00:25:19.320 --> 00:25:19.560
 doing

00:25:19.560 --> 00:25:19.920
 in their

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:20.360
 heart

00:25:20.360 --> 00:25:21.320
 but

00:25:21.320 --> 00:25:21.800
 sometimes

00:25:21.800 --> 00:25:22.060
 old

00:25:22.060 --> 00:25:22.380
 habits

00:25:22.380 --> 00:25:22.540
 are

00:25:22.540 --> 00:25:22.720
 hard

00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:22.840
 to

00:25:22.840 --> 00:25:23.080
 break

00:25:23.080 --> 00:25:24.820
 and

00:25:24.820 --> 00:25:25.240
 lying

00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:25.460
 is

00:25:25.460 --> 00:25:25.660
 one

00:25:25.660 --> 00:25:25.820
 of

00:25:25.820 --> 00:25:26.140
 those

00:25:26.140 --> 00:25:27.780
 and

00:25:27.780 --> 00:25:28.260
 they're

00:25:28.260 --> 00:25:28.820
 afraid

00:25:28.820 --> 00:25:29.800
 now

00:25:29.800 --> 00:25:30.160
 that

00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:31.120
 dad

00:25:31.120 --> 00:25:31.460
 has

00:25:31.460 --> 00:25:32.300
 died

00:25:32.300 --> 00:25:32.840
 that

00:25:32.840 --> 00:25:33.580
 Joseph

00:25:33.580 --> 00:25:34.400
 who

00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:34.720
 they

00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:34.960
 had

00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:35.280
 turned

00:25:35.280 --> 00:25:35.700
 on

00:25:35.700 --> 00:25:36.160

00:25:36.800 --> 00:25:38.800
 seems

00:25:38.800 --> 00:25:39.160
 like

00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:39.480
 fair

00:25:39.480 --> 00:25:39.880
 play

00:25:39.880 --> 00:25:41.500
 they

00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:42.160
 acknowledged

00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:42.520
 through

00:25:42.520 --> 00:25:42.780
 their

00:25:43.500 --> 00:25:44.140
 they

00:25:44.140 --> 00:25:44.440
 did

00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:44.900
 evil

00:25:44.900 --> 00:25:45.160
 to

00:25:46.980 --> 00:25:47.160
 now

00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:47.340
 what

00:25:47.340 --> 00:25:47.540
 we've

00:25:47.540 --> 00:25:47.700
 seen

00:25:47.700 --> 00:25:47.900

00:25:47.900 --> 00:25:48.160
 they've

00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:48.540

00:25:48.820 --> 00:25:49.380
 interacting

00:25:49.380 --> 00:25:49.620
 with

00:25:49.620 --> 00:25:49.980
 Joseph

00:25:49.980 --> 00:25:50.960
 Joseph

00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:51.660
 has

00:25:51.660 --> 00:25:51.980
 not

00:25:51.980 --> 00:25:52.280
 done

00:25:52.280 --> 00:25:52.640
 evil

00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:52.860
 to

00:25:52.860 --> 00:25:53.100
 them

00:25:53.100 --> 00:25:53.580
 even

00:25:53.580 --> 00:25:53.780
 though

00:25:53.780 --> 00:25:54.080
 time

00:25:54.080 --> 00:25:54.220
 and

00:25:54.220 --> 00:25:54.420
 time

00:25:54.420 --> 00:25:54.680
 again

00:25:54.680 --> 00:25:54.960

00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:55.460
 feel

00:25:55.460 --> 00:25:55.620
 like

00:25:55.620 --> 00:25:55.880
 this

00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:56.080
 is

00:25:56.080 --> 00:25:56.340
 what

00:25:56.340 --> 00:25:56.800
 could

00:25:56.800 --> 00:25:57.280
 happen

00:25:57.280 --> 00:25:57.780
 but

00:25:59.060 --> 00:25:59.200
 they

00:25:59.200 --> 00:25:59.340
 feel

00:25:59.340 --> 00:25:59.480
 like

00:27:59.020 --> 00:27:59.960
 has walked

00:27:59.960 --> 00:28:00.680
 through this

00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:01.420
 reconciliation

00:28:01.420 --> 00:28:02.540
 with his

00:28:02.540 --> 00:28:02.920
 brothers

00:28:02.920 --> 00:28:04.000
 this reconciliation

00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:04.740
 with his

00:28:04.740 --> 00:28:05.100
 family

00:28:05.100 --> 00:28:05.700
 they've had

00:28:05.700 --> 00:28:06.180
 this moment

00:28:06.180 --> 00:28:06.980
 he's brought

00:28:06.980 --> 00:28:07.400
 them here

00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:08.340
 he's provided

00:28:08.340 --> 00:28:08.940
 he feels

00:28:08.940 --> 00:28:09.360
 like you know

00:28:09.360 --> 00:28:09.900
 what we're

00:28:09.900 --> 00:28:10.920
 heading down

00:28:10.920 --> 00:28:11.860
 this journey

00:28:11.860 --> 00:28:13.420
 of growth

00:28:13.420 --> 00:28:14.260
 we're heading

00:28:14.260 --> 00:28:14.680
 down this

00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:15.120
 journey

00:28:15.120 --> 00:28:16.180
 of healthy

00:28:16.180 --> 00:28:17.840
 relationships

00:28:17.840 --> 00:28:18.860
 dad dies

00:28:18.860 --> 00:28:19.240
 we're going

00:28:19.240 --> 00:28:19.760
 to continue

00:28:19.760 --> 00:28:20.520
 on with this

00:28:20.520 --> 00:28:21.000
 and these

00:28:21.000 --> 00:28:21.440
 brothers

00:28:21.440 --> 00:28:22.120
 they come

00:28:22.120 --> 00:28:22.740
 and they

00:28:22.740 --> 00:28:23.620
 lie again

00:28:23.620 --> 00:28:26.220
 in a

00:28:26.220 --> 00:28:27.040
 passive aggressive

00:28:27.040 --> 00:28:27.580
 way

00:28:27.580 --> 00:28:28.900
 to say

00:28:28.900 --> 00:28:29.500
 what we did

00:28:29.500 --> 00:28:30.240
 is wrong

00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:31.280
 forgive us

00:28:31.280 --> 00:28:31.980
 and the Bible

00:28:31.980 --> 00:28:32.620
 says he

00:28:32.620 --> 00:28:33.080
 weeps

00:28:33.080 --> 00:28:33.660
 here's what I

00:28:33.660 --> 00:28:33.920
 think is

00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:34.240
 happening

00:28:34.240 --> 00:28:35.040
 Joseph

00:28:35.040 --> 00:28:36.060
 has moved

00:28:36.060 --> 00:28:36.880
 past

00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:37.760
 what's

00:28:37.760 --> 00:28:38.200
 happened

00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:38.960
 but it's

00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:39.940
 evident to him

00:28:39.940 --> 00:28:40.460
 that his

00:28:40.460 --> 00:28:40.900
 brothers

00:28:40.900 --> 00:28:41.880
 do not

00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:43.900
 they

00:28:43.900 --> 00:28:44.560
 don't

00:28:44.560 --> 00:28:46.360
 they don't

00:28:46.360 --> 00:28:46.780
 understand

00:28:46.780 --> 00:28:47.300
 grace

00:28:47.300 --> 00:28:48.000
 they don't

00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:48.400
 understand

00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:48.880
 mercy

00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:49.480
 they don't

00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:49.820
 understand

00:28:49.820 --> 00:28:50.400
 trusting in

00:28:50.400 --> 00:28:50.600
 the hand

00:28:50.600 --> 00:28:50.960
 of God

00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:51.500
 they don't

00:28:51.500 --> 00:28:52.000
 understand

00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:52.560
 there's still

00:28:52.560 --> 00:28:53.620
 this brokenness

00:28:53.620 --> 00:28:54.520
 that's there

00:28:54.520 --> 00:28:55.520
 in all of

00:28:55.520 --> 00:28:56.200
 the newness

00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:56.720
 of these

00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:57.180
 moments

00:28:57.180 --> 00:28:57.520
 I feel like

00:28:57.520 --> 00:28:57.940
 in Joseph

00:28:57.940 --> 00:28:58.680
 he begins

00:28:58.680 --> 00:28:59.500
 to wrestle

00:28:59.500 --> 00:29:00.380
 with what's

00:29:00.380 --> 00:29:00.940
 going on

00:29:00.940 --> 00:29:01.580
 and he's

00:29:01.580 --> 00:29:02.240
 grieving

00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:04.320
 he's

00:29:04.320 --> 00:29:05.000
 grieving

00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:07.040
 because he

00:29:07.040 --> 00:29:07.940
 has seen

00:29:07.940 --> 00:29:08.840
 the hand

00:29:08.840 --> 00:29:09.380
 of God

00:29:09.380 --> 00:29:10.060
 work

00:29:10.060 --> 00:29:11.660
 and they

00:29:11.660 --> 00:29:12.240
 haven't

00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:14.220
 and they

00:29:14.220 --> 00:29:14.840
 haven't

00:29:14.840 --> 00:29:16.780
 and they

00:29:16.780 --> 00:29:17.460
 miss it

00:29:17.460 --> 00:29:19.220
 and they

00:29:19.220 --> 00:29:19.860
 miss it

00:29:19.860 --> 00:29:22.020
 sometimes

00:29:22.020 --> 00:29:22.900
 in our

00:29:22.900 --> 00:29:23.400
 life

00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:25.180
 God

00:29:25.180 --> 00:29:25.880
 takes us

00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:26.300
 through

00:29:26.300 --> 00:29:28.420
 very

00:29:28.420 --> 00:29:29.600
 very

00:29:29.600 --> 00:29:30.900
 difficult

00:29:30.900 --> 00:29:33.080
 painful

00:29:33.080 --> 00:29:35.100
 seasons

00:29:35.100 --> 00:29:36.100
 of suffering

00:29:36.100 --> 00:29:36.860
 and loss

00:29:36.860 --> 00:29:38.640
 and then

00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:39.360
 in the midst

00:29:39.360 --> 00:29:39.980
 of that

00:29:39.980 --> 00:29:41.660
 God

00:29:41.660 --> 00:29:42.400
 while bitterness

00:29:42.400 --> 00:29:44.900
 and anger

00:29:44.900 --> 00:29:46.640
 and hatred

00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:48.060
 should take

00:29:48.060 --> 00:29:48.460
 root

00:29:48.460 --> 00:29:48.820
 in our

00:29:48.820 --> 00:29:49.380
 hearts

00:29:49.380 --> 00:29:51.520
 that God

00:29:51.520 --> 00:29:52.660
 in his

00:29:52.660 --> 00:29:53.260
 loving

00:29:53.260 --> 00:29:54.880
 and kindness

00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:57.500
 does not

00:29:57.500 --> 00:29:57.920
 allow

00:29:57.920 --> 00:29:58.560
 sin

00:29:58.560 --> 00:29:59.040
 to take

00:29:59.040 --> 00:29:59.640
 hold

00:29:59.640 --> 00:30:01.420
 but instead

00:30:01.420 --> 00:30:02.160
 allows

00:30:02.160 --> 00:30:02.860
 grace

00:30:02.860 --> 00:30:04.120
 and mercy

00:30:04.120 --> 00:30:05.580
 and forgiveness

00:30:05.580 --> 00:30:07.100
 and love

00:30:07.100 --> 00:30:08.260
 to not only

00:30:08.260 --> 00:30:09.000
 be present

00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:09.900
 but to grow

00:30:09.900 --> 00:30:10.340
 deep

00:30:10.340 --> 00:30:12.660
 and if you've

00:30:12.660 --> 00:30:13.620
 walked through

00:30:13.620 --> 00:30:15.240
 that season

00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:16.600
 of life

00:30:16.600 --> 00:30:18.100
 where the world

00:30:18.100 --> 00:30:18.960
 feels like you

00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:19.900
 should be bitter

00:30:19.900 --> 00:30:20.900
 but God

00:30:20.900 --> 00:30:21.580
 has made you

00:30:21.580 --> 00:30:22.040
 better

00:30:22.040 --> 00:30:24.680
 and people

00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:25.500
 don't get it

00:30:25.500 --> 00:30:27.360
 and people

00:30:27.360 --> 00:30:28.140
 don't trust

00:30:28.140 --> 00:30:28.720
 the work

00:30:28.720 --> 00:30:29.540
 that God

00:30:29.540 --> 00:30:30.720
 has done

00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:31.060
 in your

00:30:31.060 --> 00:30:31.560
 life

00:30:31.560 --> 00:30:34.240
 you understand

00:30:34.240 --> 00:30:36.140
 the weeping

00:30:36.140 --> 00:30:36.760
 of Joseph

00:30:36.760 --> 00:30:41.140
 he wants

00:30:41.140 --> 00:30:41.560
 them

00:30:41.560 --> 00:30:43.100
 to know

00:30:43.100 --> 00:30:45.260
 he wants

00:30:45.260 --> 00:30:45.620
 them

00:30:45.620 --> 00:30:46.220
 to have

00:30:46.220 --> 00:30:46.920
 the depth

00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:48.700
 he wants

00:30:48.700 --> 00:30:48.900
 them

00:30:48.900 --> 00:30:49.200
 to have

00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:50.040
 the relationship

00:30:50.040 --> 00:30:52.120
 and they

00:30:52.120 --> 00:30:52.620
 just miss

00:30:52.620 --> 00:30:52.860
 it

00:30:52.860 --> 00:30:57.160
 and so

00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:57.560
 Joseph

00:30:57.560 --> 00:30:58.240
 says

00:30:58.240 --> 00:30:59.820
 two things

00:30:59.820 --> 00:31:00.340
 to them

00:31:00.340 --> 00:31:03.000
 two things

00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:03.780
 in verse

00:31:03.780 --> 00:31:04.380
 19

00:31:04.380 --> 00:31:04.980
 and 20

00:31:04.980 --> 00:31:06.940
 to teach

00:31:06.940 --> 00:31:07.400
 them

00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:09.240
 what God

00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:10.000
 has done

00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:11.420
 for these

00:31:11.420 --> 00:31:11.920
 years

00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:12.320
 of his

00:31:12.320 --> 00:31:12.800
 life

00:31:12.800 --> 00:31:15.460
 of why

00:31:15.460 --> 00:31:15.920
 Joseph

00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:17.020
 can respond

00:31:17.020 --> 00:31:18.340
 the way

00:31:18.340 --> 00:31:18.700
 that he

00:31:18.700 --> 00:31:19.200
 has

00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:21.680
 and as I

00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:22.240
 stand here

00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:22.700
 today

00:31:22.700 --> 00:31:23.520
 before you

00:31:23.520 --> 00:31:25.200
 having gone

00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:25.860
 through my

00:31:25.860 --> 00:31:26.760
 own unique

00:31:26.760 --> 00:31:27.500
 times

00:31:27.500 --> 00:31:29.400
 of seasons

00:31:29.400 --> 00:31:30.360
 of difficulty

00:31:30.360 --> 00:31:31.100
 of seasons

00:31:31.100 --> 00:31:31.920
 of suffering

00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:33.600
 of seasons

00:31:33.600 --> 00:31:34.320
 of pain

00:31:34.320 --> 00:31:35.080
 and of sorrow

00:31:35.080 --> 00:31:36.780
 and I know

00:31:36.780 --> 00:31:37.580
 that so many

00:31:37.580 --> 00:31:38.020
 of you

00:31:38.020 --> 00:31:39.180
 have as well

00:31:39.180 --> 00:31:41.100
 and when we

00:31:41.100 --> 00:31:42.080
 ask the question

00:31:42.080 --> 00:31:42.620
 God

00:31:42.620 --> 00:31:44.120
 what are

00:31:44.120 --> 00:31:44.720
 you doing

00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:47.140
 why would

00:31:47.140 --> 00:31:47.520
 you allow

00:31:47.520 --> 00:31:47.940
 this to

00:31:47.940 --> 00:31:48.400
 happen

00:31:48.400 --> 00:31:50.380
 God

00:31:50.380 --> 00:31:50.980
 why could

00:31:50.980 --> 00:31:51.640
 things not

00:31:51.640 --> 00:31:52.000
 have been

00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:52.500
 different

00:31:52.500 --> 00:31:54.780
 well it's

00:31:54.780 --> 00:31:55.320
 maybe because

00:31:55.320 --> 00:31:55.800
 God

00:31:55.800 --> 00:31:58.180
 wants to

00:31:58.180 --> 00:32:00.120
 teach you

00:32:00.120 --> 00:32:00.820
 and me

00:32:00.820 --> 00:32:03.260
 what God

00:32:03.260 --> 00:32:03.660
 taught

00:32:03.660 --> 00:32:04.300
 Joseph

00:32:04.300 --> 00:32:06.660
 the first

00:32:06.660 --> 00:32:07.200
 thing that God

00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:07.960
 taught Joseph

00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:08.520
 that we see

00:32:08.520 --> 00:32:08.800
 in his

00:32:08.800 --> 00:32:09.340
 response

00:32:09.340 --> 00:32:11.120
 is Joseph's

00:32:11.120 --> 00:32:11.640
 position

00:32:11.640 --> 00:32:13.560
 Joseph's

00:32:13.560 --> 00:32:14.040
 position

00:32:14.040 --> 00:32:15.660
 look back

00:32:15.660 --> 00:32:16.380
 at verse 19

00:32:16.380 --> 00:32:17.080
 this is after

00:32:17.080 --> 00:32:17.620
 their appeal

00:32:17.620 --> 00:32:18.080
 to him

00:32:18.080 --> 00:32:20.660
 but Joseph

00:32:20.660 --> 00:32:21.180
 said to

00:32:21.180 --> 00:32:21.500
 them

00:32:21.500 --> 00:32:23.720
 do not

00:32:23.720 --> 00:32:24.340
 fear

00:32:24.340 --> 00:32:27.040
 for am

00:32:27.040 --> 00:32:27.540
 I

00:32:27.540 --> 00:32:29.340
 in the

00:32:29.340 --> 00:32:29.960
 place

00:32:29.960 --> 00:32:32.020
 of God

00:32:32.020 --> 00:32:34.420
 pause here

00:32:34.420 --> 00:32:34.920
 for a minute

00:32:34.920 --> 00:32:37.160
 if you

00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:37.660
 were to

00:32:37.660 --> 00:32:38.260
 look at

00:32:38.260 --> 00:32:38.560
 this

00:32:38.560 --> 00:32:39.100
 through a

00:32:39.100 --> 00:32:39.660
 sinful

00:32:39.660 --> 00:32:41.000
 worldly

00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:41.800
 perspective

00:32:41.800 --> 00:32:43.540
 okay

00:32:43.540 --> 00:32:44.860
 not through

00:32:44.860 --> 00:32:45.360
 a Christian

00:32:45.360 --> 00:32:45.880
 narrative

00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:47.240
 through a

00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:47.600
 Christian

00:32:47.600 --> 00:32:48.260
 worldview

00:32:48.260 --> 00:32:49.540
 through

00:32:49.540 --> 00:32:49.900
 biblical

00:32:49.900 --> 00:32:50.500
 truth

00:32:50.500 --> 00:32:52.740
 if you

00:32:52.740 --> 00:32:52.980
 were to

00:32:52.980 --> 00:32:53.340
 look at

00:32:53.340 --> 00:32:53.820
 this

00:32:53.820 --> 00:32:55.040
 through the

00:32:55.040 --> 00:32:55.780
 lens of

00:32:55.780 --> 00:32:56.500
 the world

00:32:56.500 --> 00:32:58.340
 there is

00:32:58.340 --> 00:32:59.300
 no greater

00:32:59.300 --> 00:33:00.140
 story

00:33:00.140 --> 00:33:01.160
 of a

00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:01.520
 self

00:33:01.520 --> 00:33:02.120
 made

00:33:02.120 --> 00:33:02.720
 person

00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:02.960
 than

00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:03.440
 Joseph

00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:06.720
 hated

00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:07.180
 by his

00:33:07.180 --> 00:33:07.680
 family

00:33:07.680 --> 00:33:10.140
 check

00:33:10.140 --> 00:33:12.060
 sold

00:33:12.060 --> 00:33:12.500
 into

00:33:12.500 --> 00:33:13.260
 slavery

00:33:13.260 --> 00:33:14.680
 check

00:33:14.680 --> 00:33:16.500
 false

00:33:16.500 --> 00:33:17.220
 allegations

00:33:17.220 --> 00:33:17.600
 of

00:33:17.600 --> 00:33:18.200
 assault

00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:19.300
 check

00:33:19.300 --> 00:33:20.940
 imprisoned

00:33:20.940 --> 00:33:21.640
 for those

00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:22.360
 allegations

00:33:22.360 --> 00:33:23.500
 check

00:33:23.500 --> 00:33:24.940
 forgotten

00:33:24.940 --> 00:33:25.460
 about

00:33:25.460 --> 00:33:26.400
 check

00:33:26.400 --> 00:33:28.760
 then

00:33:28.760 --> 00:33:29.640
 figures out

00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:30.140
 a way

00:33:30.140 --> 00:33:31.380
 to earn

00:33:31.380 --> 00:33:32.400
 his way

00:33:32.400 --> 00:33:33.480
 out of

00:33:33.480 --> 00:33:33.780
 this

00:33:33.780 --> 00:33:34.500
 situation

00:33:34.500 --> 00:33:37.280
 and now

00:33:37.280 --> 00:33:38.540
 finds

00:33:38.540 --> 00:33:39.120
 himself

00:33:39.120 --> 00:33:40.520
 as second

00:33:40.520 --> 00:33:41.600
 in charge

00:33:41.600 --> 00:33:42.780
 in the

00:33:42.780 --> 00:33:43.640
 world's

00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:44.540
 largest

00:33:44.540 --> 00:33:45.340
 empire

00:33:45.340 --> 00:33:45.840
 at the

00:33:45.840 --> 00:33:46.200
 time

00:33:46.200 --> 00:33:48.160
 the world

00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:49.520
 looks at

00:33:49.520 --> 00:33:50.180
 Joseph

00:33:50.180 --> 00:33:52.060
 and says

00:33:52.060 --> 00:33:52.860
 that's the

00:33:52.860 --> 00:33:53.600
 definition

00:33:53.600 --> 00:33:54.240
 of

00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:54.520
 self

00:33:54.520 --> 00:33:54.900
 made

00:33:54.900 --> 00:33:57.720
 if

00:33:57.720 --> 00:33:58.360
 Hollywood

00:33:58.360 --> 00:33:59.160
 were

00:33:59.160 --> 00:33:59.620
 writing

00:33:59.620 --> 00:33:59.980
 this

00:33:59.980 --> 00:34:00.660
 story

00:34:00.660 --> 00:34:03.600
 here's

00:34:03.600 --> 00:34:03.760
 how

00:34:03.760 --> 00:34:04.240
 Hollywood

00:34:04.240 --> 00:34:04.540
 would

00:34:04.540 --> 00:34:04.740
 put

00:34:04.740 --> 00:34:05.060
 verse

00:34:05.060 --> 00:34:05.720
 19

00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:08.060
 but

00:34:08.060 --> 00:34:08.480
 Joseph

00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:08.920
 said

00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:09.100
 to

00:34:09.100 --> 00:34:09.440
 them

00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:10.800
 I

00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:11.080
 am

00:34:11.080 --> 00:34:11.500
 God

00:34:11.500 --> 00:34:13.800
 I

00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:14.040
 am

00:34:14.040 --> 00:34:14.460
 God

00:34:14.460 --> 00:34:16.080
 but

00:34:16.080 --> 00:34:16.340
 that's

00:34:16.340 --> 00:34:16.580
 not

00:34:16.580 --> 00:34:16.780
 the

00:34:16.780 --> 00:34:17.080
 truth

00:34:17.080 --> 00:34:17.220
 of

00:34:17.220 --> 00:34:17.400
 this

00:34:17.400 --> 00:34:17.940
 story

00:34:17.940 --> 00:34:19.080
 that's

00:34:19.080 --> 00:34:19.280
 not

00:34:19.280 --> 00:34:19.480
 what

00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:19.800
 Joseph

00:34:19.800 --> 00:34:20.440
 says

00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:21.220
 because

00:34:21.220 --> 00:34:21.620
 through

00:34:21.620 --> 00:34:21.800
 it

00:34:21.800 --> 00:34:22.020

00:34:22.380 --> 00:34:22.760
 God

00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:22.920
 is

00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:23.300
 teaching

00:34:23.300 --> 00:34:23.720
 what

00:34:23.720 --> 00:34:24.020
 God

00:34:24.020 --> 00:34:24.180
 is

00:34:24.180 --> 00:34:24.600
 revealing

00:34:24.600 --> 00:34:25.060
 what

00:34:25.060 --> 00:34:25.340
 God

00:34:25.340 --> 00:34:25.500
 is

00:34:25.500 --> 00:34:25.740
 showing

00:34:25.740 --> 00:34:26.200
 Joseph

00:34:26.200 --> 00:34:26.400
 is

00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:26.720
 hey

00:34:26.720 --> 00:34:26.880
 Joseph

00:34:26.880 --> 00:34:27.240
 here's

00:34:27.240 --> 00:34:27.360

 you

00:34:29.440 --> 00:34:29.820
 are

00:34:29.820 --> 00:34:30.660

00:34:30.660 --> 00:34:30.860
 through

00:34:30.860 --> 00:34:31.060
 your

00:34:31.060 --> 00:34:31.540

00:35:05.700 --> 00:35:06.460
 situations

00:35:06.460 --> 00:35:07.220
 of our

00:35:07.220 --> 00:35:07.620
 life

00:35:07.620 --> 00:35:08.380
 to not

00:35:08.380 --> 00:35:08.920
 simply

00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:09.300
 just

00:35:09.300 --> 00:35:09.880
 strengthen

00:35:09.880 --> 00:35:10.200
 our

00:35:10.200 --> 00:35:10.740
 spirit

00:35:10.740 --> 00:35:11.640
 but also

00:35:11.640 --> 00:35:12.140
 to humble

00:35:12.140 --> 00:35:12.400
 our

00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:12.840
 flesh

00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:18.280
 do you

00:35:18.280 --> 00:35:18.420
 remember

00:35:18.420 --> 00:35:18.700
 Joseph

00:35:18.700 --> 00:35:18.900
 when he

00:35:18.900 --> 00:35:19.300
 was young

00:35:19.300 --> 00:35:21.460
 a little

00:35:21.460 --> 00:35:21.580
 bit

00:35:21.580 --> 00:35:21.920
 arrogant

00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:23.640
 a little

00:35:23.640 --> 00:35:23.780
 bit

00:35:23.780 --> 00:35:24.240
 cocky

00:35:24.240 --> 00:35:25.820
 a little

00:35:25.820 --> 00:35:25.940
 bit

00:35:25.940 --> 00:35:26.100
 look

00:35:26.100 --> 00:35:26.220
 what

00:35:26.220 --> 00:35:26.340
 I

00:35:26.340 --> 00:35:26.600
 got

00:35:26.600 --> 00:35:28.460
 and

00:35:28.460 --> 00:35:28.800
 now

00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:29.440
 we

00:35:29.440 --> 00:35:29.940
 found

00:35:29.940 --> 00:35:31.200
 the

00:35:31.200 --> 00:35:31.500
 second

00:35:31.500 --> 00:35:31.740
 most

00:35:31.740 --> 00:35:32.300
 powerful

00:35:32.300 --> 00:35:33.640
 person

00:35:33.640 --> 00:35:34.040
 in the

00:35:34.040 --> 00:35:34.380
 world

00:35:34.380 --> 00:35:38.080
 and he

00:35:38.080 --> 00:35:38.420
 says

00:35:38.420 --> 00:35:40.560
 am I

00:35:40.560 --> 00:35:41.040
 God

00:35:41.040 --> 00:35:42.640
 no

00:35:42.640 --> 00:35:44.340
 it's

00:35:44.340 --> 00:35:44.640
 not

00:35:44.640 --> 00:35:45.100
 only

00:35:45.100 --> 00:35:46.000
 Joseph's

00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:47.180
 positioning

00:35:47.180 --> 00:35:49.080
 as a

00:35:49.080 --> 00:35:49.480
 brother

00:35:49.480 --> 00:35:51.900
 but it's

00:35:51.900 --> 00:35:53.180
 Joseph's

00:35:53.180 --> 00:35:54.360
 positioning

00:35:54.360 --> 00:35:55.620
 for the

00:35:55.620 --> 00:35:55.900
 Lord

00:35:55.900 --> 00:35:58.000
 I'm

00:35:58.000 --> 00:35:58.420
 just a

00:35:58.420 --> 00:35:58.840
 servant

00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:00.300
 being

00:36:00.300 --> 00:36:00.940
 used

00:36:00.940 --> 00:36:03.040
 do I

00:36:03.040 --> 00:36:03.420
 want to

00:36:03.420 --> 00:36:03.860
 go through

00:36:03.860 --> 00:36:04.220
 the

00:36:04.220 --> 00:36:04.580
 suffering

00:36:04.580 --> 00:36:05.220
 do I

00:36:05.220 --> 00:36:05.500
 want to

00:36:05.500 --> 00:36:05.740
 go through

00:36:05.740 --> 00:36:06.300
 the pain

00:36:06.300 --> 00:36:06.940
 do I

00:36:06.940 --> 00:36:07.220
 want to

00:36:07.220 --> 00:36:07.520
 go through

00:36:07.520 --> 00:36:08.060
 the struggle

00:36:08.060 --> 00:36:09.080
 absolutely

00:36:09.080 --> 00:36:09.660
 not

00:36:09.660 --> 00:36:10.440
 but through

00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:10.820
 it all

00:36:10.820 --> 00:36:11.480
 God's

00:36:11.480 --> 00:36:11.940
 working

00:36:11.940 --> 00:36:12.820
 and God's

00:36:12.820 --> 00:36:13.200
 doing

00:36:13.200 --> 00:36:14.040
 and God's

00:36:14.040 --> 00:36:14.520
 creating

00:36:14.520 --> 00:36:14.860
 me

00:36:14.860 --> 00:36:16.060
 so church

00:36:16.060 --> 00:36:16.440
 when you

00:36:16.440 --> 00:36:17.000
 walk through

00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:18.060
 and Genesis

00:36:18.060 --> 00:36:19.300
 is filled

00:36:19.300 --> 00:36:20.300
 with suffering

00:36:20.300 --> 00:36:20.900
 and pain

00:36:20.900 --> 00:36:21.740
 and God's

00:36:21.740 --> 00:36:22.120
 word

00:36:22.120 --> 00:36:23.140
 reminds us

00:36:23.140 --> 00:36:23.960
 of suffering

00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:24.740
 and pain

00:36:24.740 --> 00:36:25.400
 and God's

00:36:25.400 --> 00:36:25.700
 word

00:36:25.700 --> 00:36:26.740
 promise us

00:36:26.740 --> 00:36:27.660
 in Christ

00:36:27.660 --> 00:36:28.280
 that we'll

00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:28.860
 walk through

00:36:28.860 --> 00:36:29.880
 seasons and

00:36:29.880 --> 00:36:30.400
 times of

00:36:30.400 --> 00:36:30.820
 suffering

00:36:30.820 --> 00:36:31.720
 and pain

00:36:31.720 --> 00:36:32.720
 and persecution

00:36:32.720 --> 00:36:35.400
 and it's

00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:36.100
 not God's

00:36:36.100 --> 00:36:36.620
 punishment

00:36:36.620 --> 00:36:39.160
 it's God

00:36:39.160 --> 00:36:40.620
 positioning us

00:36:40.620 --> 00:36:42.780
 in humility

00:36:42.780 --> 00:36:43.520
 before him

00:36:43.520 --> 00:36:45.340
 in humility

00:36:45.340 --> 00:36:46.260
 before others

00:36:46.260 --> 00:36:47.800
 to give him

00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:48.180
 the praise

00:36:48.180 --> 00:36:48.720
 and the glory

00:36:48.720 --> 00:36:50.940
 but the

00:36:50.940 --> 00:36:51.520
 second thing

00:36:51.520 --> 00:36:52.940
 not only

00:36:52.940 --> 00:36:53.240
 is it

00:36:53.240 --> 00:36:53.940
 Joseph's

00:36:53.940 --> 00:36:54.660
 position

00:36:54.660 --> 00:36:56.920
 he takes

00:36:56.920 --> 00:36:57.260
 a step

00:36:57.260 --> 00:36:57.580
 back

00:36:57.580 --> 00:36:57.840
 and he

00:36:57.840 --> 00:36:58.060
 says

00:36:58.060 --> 00:36:59.480
 but it's

00:36:59.480 --> 00:36:59.880
 people's

00:36:59.880 --> 00:37:00.380
 salvation

00:37:00.380 --> 00:37:01.960
 it's

00:37:01.960 --> 00:37:02.260
 people's

00:37:02.260 --> 00:37:02.600
 salvation

00:37:02.600 --> 00:37:02.840
 look at

00:37:02.840 --> 00:37:03.240
 verse 20

00:37:03.240 --> 00:37:05.820
 as for

00:37:05.820 --> 00:37:06.240
 you

00:37:06.240 --> 00:37:08.480
 you meant

00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:08.940
 evil

00:37:08.940 --> 00:37:09.800
 against me

00:37:09.800 --> 00:37:12.800
 but God

00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:13.700
 meant it

00:37:13.700 --> 00:37:14.280
 for good

00:37:14.280 --> 00:37:18.080
 if there

00:37:18.080 --> 00:37:18.400
 was a

00:37:18.400 --> 00:37:18.840
 period

00:37:18.840 --> 00:37:21.780
 this

00:37:21.780 --> 00:37:22.040
 verse

00:37:22.040 --> 00:37:22.280
 would be

00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:22.480
 more

00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:22.860
 difficult

00:37:22.860 --> 00:37:25.340
 but it

00:37:25.340 --> 00:37:25.820
 doesn't

00:37:25.820 --> 00:37:27.480
 the sentence

00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:28.360
 doesn't end

00:37:28.360 --> 00:37:30.240
 the conversation

00:37:30.240 --> 00:37:31.120
 continues

00:37:31.120 --> 00:37:33.920
 to bring

00:37:33.920 --> 00:37:34.700
 it about

00:37:34.700 --> 00:37:36.880
 that many

00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:37.460
 people

00:37:37.460 --> 00:37:39.140
 should be

00:37:39.140 --> 00:37:40.040
 kept alive

00:37:40.040 --> 00:37:41.660
 as they

00:37:41.660 --> 00:37:42.060
 are

00:37:42.060 --> 00:37:43.080
 today

00:37:43.080 --> 00:37:45.560
 Joseph

00:37:45.560 --> 00:37:46.580
 does not

00:37:46.580 --> 00:37:48.100
 dismiss

00:37:48.100 --> 00:37:48.960
 the evil

00:37:48.960 --> 00:37:49.580
 intent

00:37:49.580 --> 00:37:50.940
 of his

00:37:50.940 --> 00:37:51.320
 brothers

00:37:51.320 --> 00:37:54.180
 he doesn't

00:37:54.180 --> 00:37:55.720
 but what

00:37:55.720 --> 00:37:56.040
 does he

00:37:56.040 --> 00:37:56.360
 see

00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:58.600
 the working

00:37:58.600 --> 00:37:59.700
 hand

00:37:59.700 --> 00:38:00.940
 of God

00:38:00.940 --> 00:38:02.500
 extending

00:38:02.500 --> 00:38:03.280
 life

00:38:03.280 --> 00:38:04.220
 to people

00:38:04.220 --> 00:38:06.240
 for Joseph

00:38:06.240 --> 00:38:06.860
 God had a

00:38:06.860 --> 00:38:07.400
 plan to

00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:08.120
 save people

00:38:08.120 --> 00:38:09.040
 from famine

00:38:09.040 --> 00:38:11.060
 and in

00:38:11.060 --> 00:38:11.460
 order for

00:38:11.460 --> 00:38:11.820
 this to

00:38:11.820 --> 00:38:12.280
 happen

00:38:12.280 --> 00:38:13.300
 Joseph

00:38:13.300 --> 00:38:13.760
 would need

00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:14.140
 to walk

00:38:14.140 --> 00:38:14.300
 through

00:38:14.300 --> 00:38:14.500
 this

00:38:14.500 --> 00:38:15.040
 process

00:38:15.040 --> 00:38:16.480
 what

00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:16.960
 Joseph

00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:17.440
 chose

00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:18.040
 to focus

00:38:18.040 --> 00:38:18.460
 on

00:38:18.460 --> 00:38:19.680
 was not

00:38:19.680 --> 00:38:20.380
 the pain

00:38:20.380 --> 00:38:20.820
 of his

00:38:20.820 --> 00:38:21.360
 suffering

00:38:21.360 --> 00:38:21.960
 but the

00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:22.260
 hope

00:38:22.260 --> 00:38:22.840
 of the

00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:23.100
 people

00:38:23.100 --> 00:38:24.960
 people

00:38:24.960 --> 00:38:25.540
 will

00:38:25.540 --> 00:38:26.140
 in this

00:38:26.140 --> 00:38:26.720
 world

00:38:26.720 --> 00:38:27.360
 hurt

00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:27.660
 you

00:38:27.660 --> 00:38:29.160
 God's

00:38:29.160 --> 00:38:29.740
 word

00:38:29.740 --> 00:38:30.460
 tells

00:38:30.460 --> 00:38:30.860
 you

00:38:30.860 --> 00:38:31.540
 and I

00:38:31.540 --> 00:38:32.040
 that

00:38:32.040 --> 00:38:33.820
 God's

00:38:33.820 --> 00:38:34.140
 word

00:38:34.140 --> 00:38:34.880
 is clear

00:38:34.880 --> 00:38:36.100
 that you

00:38:36.100 --> 00:38:36.560
 and I

00:38:36.560 --> 00:38:36.980
 when we

00:38:36.980 --> 00:38:37.680
 live for

00:38:37.680 --> 00:38:38.120
 Christ

00:38:38.120 --> 00:38:38.800
 that we

00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:39.500
 will face

00:38:39.500 --> 00:38:40.000
 seasons

00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:41.120
 trials

00:38:41.120 --> 00:38:42.160
 and persecution

00:38:42.160 --> 00:38:43.400
 and suffering

00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:45.060
 and you

00:38:45.060 --> 00:38:45.340
 and I

00:38:45.340 --> 00:38:46.000
 have one

00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:46.440
 of two

00:38:46.440 --> 00:38:47.140
 options

00:38:47.140 --> 00:38:47.980
 within this

00:38:47.980 --> 00:38:49.440
 do we

00:38:49.440 --> 00:38:50.000
 as we

00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:50.860
 go through

00:38:50.860 --> 00:38:51.320
 this

00:38:51.320 --> 00:38:52.040
 as we

00:38:52.040 --> 00:38:52.520
 walk

00:38:52.520 --> 00:38:52.820
 through

00:38:52.820 --> 00:38:53.220
 this

00:38:53.220 --> 00:38:53.780
 as we

00:38:53.780 --> 00:38:54.180
 face

00:38:54.180 --> 00:38:54.480
 this

00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:55.060
 will we

00:38:55.060 --> 00:38:55.720
 focus on

00:38:55.720 --> 00:38:56.300
 the pain

00:38:56.300 --> 00:38:56.780
 and grow

00:38:56.780 --> 00:38:57.080
 in the

00:38:57.080 --> 00:38:57.400
 bitterness

00:38:57.400 --> 00:38:59.180
 will we

00:38:59.180 --> 00:38:59.820
 wait for

00:38:59.820 --> 00:39:00.500
 our moment

00:39:00.500 --> 00:39:00.960
 where we

00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:01.720
 can seize

00:39:01.720 --> 00:39:02.280
 power

00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:02.740
 and seize

00:39:02.740 --> 00:39:03.320
 control

00:39:03.320 --> 00:39:04.840
 will we

00:39:04.840 --> 00:39:05.480
 be those

00:39:05.480 --> 00:39:06.120
 whose hearts

00:39:06.120 --> 00:39:06.900
 become so

00:39:06.900 --> 00:39:07.440
 hardened

00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:07.960
 that they

00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:08.560
 become just

00:39:08.560 --> 00:39:09.260
 as sinful

00:39:09.260 --> 00:39:10.240
 and angry

00:39:10.240 --> 00:39:11.260
 and wrathful

00:39:11.260 --> 00:39:11.900
 as those

00:39:11.900 --> 00:39:12.360
 who are doing

00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:12.800
 these things

00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:13.340
 to us

00:39:13.340 --> 00:39:15.420
 or

00:39:15.420 --> 00:39:17.460
 or

00:39:17.460 --> 00:39:18.800
 will we

00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:19.400
 focus

00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:20.040
 on the

00:39:20.040 --> 00:39:20.600
 promises

00:39:20.600 --> 00:39:21.860
 of God

00:39:21.860 --> 00:39:24.060
 and grow

00:39:24.060 --> 00:39:25.460
 in faithfulness

00:39:25.460 --> 00:39:27.460
 will we

00:39:27.460 --> 00:39:28.060
 begin to

00:39:28.060 --> 00:39:28.460
 see

00:39:28.460 --> 00:39:29.760
 that every

00:39:29.760 --> 00:39:30.560
 moment of

00:39:30.560 --> 00:39:31.140
 pain

00:39:31.140 --> 00:39:32.740
 is opportunity

00:39:32.740 --> 00:39:33.380
 for God

00:39:33.380 --> 00:39:34.000
 to grow

00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:34.440
 you

00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:35.800
 and God

00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:36.280
 to add

00:39:36.280 --> 00:39:36.740
 a chapter

00:39:36.740 --> 00:39:37.180
 to your

00:39:37.180 --> 00:39:37.840
 story

00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:39.180
 that can

00:39:39.180 --> 00:39:39.820
 be used

00:39:39.820 --> 00:39:40.640
 to minister

00:39:40.640 --> 00:39:41.540
 to others

00:39:41.540 --> 00:39:43.080
 and that

00:39:43.080 --> 00:39:43.780
 can be used

00:39:43.780 --> 00:39:44.340
 to give you

00:39:44.340 --> 00:39:44.660
 and I

00:39:44.660 --> 00:39:45.280

00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:45.840
 to share

00:39:45.840 --> 00:39:46.380
 the gospel

00:39:46.380 --> 00:39:46.780
 of Jesus

00:39:46.780 --> 00:39:47.320
 Christ

00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:49.160
 to not

00:39:49.160 --> 00:39:50.180
 just be

00:39:50.180 --> 00:39:52.540
 the hands

00:39:52.540 --> 00:39:53.020
 and feet

00:39:53.020 --> 00:39:53.560

00:39:53.560 --> 00:39:56.040
 but to be

00:39:56.040 --> 00:39:56.380
 the very

00:39:56.380 --> 00:39:56.960
 words

00:39:56.960 --> 00:39:58.660
 as we

 Christ

00:40:00.200 --> 00:40:02.280
 you see

00:40:02.280 --> 00:40:02.740
 because

00:40:02.740 --> 00:40:04.440
 in this

00:40:04.440 --> 00:40:06.120
 what we

00:40:06.120 --> 00:40:06.540
 see

00:40:06.540 --> 00:40:08.140
 was the

00:40:08.140 --> 00:40:08.480
 work of

00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:08.880
 God

00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:09.620
 to save

00:40:09.620 --> 00:40:10.620
 lives

00:40:10.620 --> 00:40:13.040
 but what

00:40:13.040 --> 00:40:13.580
 we're called

00:40:13.580 --> 00:40:13.920
 to

00:40:13.920 --> 00:40:15.460
 through it

00:40:15.460 --> 00:40:15.680
 all

00:40:15.680 --> 00:40:16.000
 is the

00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:16.360
 work of

00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:21.220
 was sent

00:40:21.220 --> 00:40:21.520
 to a

00:40:21.520 --> 00:40:21.780
 people

00:40:21.780 --> 00:40:23.100
 to save

00:40:23.100 --> 00:40:23.560
 them from

00:40:23.560 --> 00:40:24.100
 their famine

00:40:24.100 --> 00:40:26.480
 and Jesus

00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:28.600
 was sent

00:40:28.600 --> 00:40:30.420
 to save

00:40:30.420 --> 00:40:30.740
 the people

00:40:30.740 --> 00:40:31.120
 from their

00:40:31.120 --> 00:40:31.400
 sin

00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:33.660

00:40:47.980 --> 00:40:51.060
 may we

00:40:51.060 --> 00:40:51.420

00:40:51.420 --> 00:40:53.260
 over the

00:40:53.260 --> 00:40:53.920
 lostness of

00:40:53.920 --> 00:40:54.460
 this world

00:41:51.140 --> 00:41:52.180
 grow bitter

00:41:52.180 --> 00:41:54.440
 that his

00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:54.920
 heart

00:41:54.920 --> 00:41:58.080
 was made

00:41:58.080 --> 00:41:58.720
 soft

00:41:58.720 --> 00:42:00.620
 for the

00:42:00.620 --> 00:42:01.340
 work that

00:42:01.340 --> 00:42:01.700
 you wanted

00:42:01.700 --> 00:42:02.020
 to do

00:42:02.020 --> 00:42:02.460
 in him

00:42:06.720 --> 00:42:08.520
 stared

00:42:08.520 --> 00:42:09.320
 in the

00:42:09.320 --> 00:42:09.800
 face

00:42:09.800 --> 00:42:11.700
 of the

00:42:11.700 --> 00:42:12.520
 brokenness

00:42:12.520 --> 00:42:13.900
 of his

00:42:13.900 --> 00:42:14.260
 brothers

00:42:14.260 --> 00:42:17.580
 God where

00:42:17.580 --> 00:42:17.960
 he could

00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:18.220
 have

00:42:18.220 --> 00:42:20.140
 called for

00:42:20.140 --> 00:42:20.720
 the armies

00:42:20.720 --> 00:42:21.440
 of Pharaoh

00:42:21.440 --> 00:42:23.340
 and struck

00:42:23.340 --> 00:42:23.780
 them all

00:42:23.780 --> 00:42:24.260
 down

00:42:24.260 --> 00:42:26.580
 God he

00:42:26.580 --> 00:42:26.760
 would have

00:42:26.760 --> 00:42:27.340
 been right

00:42:27.340 --> 00:42:27.760
 in the

00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:28.440
 standing

00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:29.720
 of the

00:42:29.720 --> 00:42:30.100
 world

00:42:30.100 --> 00:42:30.740
 to do

00:42:30.740 --> 00:42:32.080
 as he

00:42:32.080 --> 00:42:32.400
 did

00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:34.800
 instead

00:42:35.200 --> 00:42:37.780
 chose your

00:42:37.780 --> 00:42:38.180
 will

 and your

00:42:38.520 --> 00:42:38.940
 way

00:42:38.940 --> 00:42:40.720
 to

 not

 extend

00:42:41.760 --> 00:42:42.340
 life

00:42:42.340 --> 00:42:43.300
 through

00:42:43.300 --> 00:42:44.080
 food

00:42:44.080 --> 00:42:45.480
 to save

00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:45.860
 from the

00:42:45.860 --> 00:42:46.240
 famine

00:42:46.240 --> 00:42:48.200
 but to

00:42:48.200 --> 00:42:48.740
 extend

00:42:48.740 --> 00:42:49.560
 life

00:42:49.560 --> 00:42:53.380
 through the

00:42:53.380 --> 00:42:53.800
 hand of

00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:54.280
 forgiveness

 God I

00:42:57.180 --> 00:42:58.620
 that every

00:42:58.620 --> 00:42:59.100
 single one

00:42:59.100 --> 00:42:59.360
 of us

00:42:59.360 --> 00:42:59.780
 in here

00:42:59.780 --> 00:43:01.900
 who know

00:43:01.900 --> 00:43:02.780
 Jesus Christ

00:43:02.780 --> 00:43:03.200
 as our

00:43:03.200 --> 00:43:03.620
 Lord and

00:43:03.620 --> 00:43:03.940
 Savior

00:43:03.940 --> 00:43:06.400
 have

00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:07.300
 experienced

00:43:07.300 --> 00:43:08.440
 the sweet

00:43:08.440 --> 00:43:09.020
 and the

00:43:09.020 --> 00:43:09.340
 goodness

00:43:09.340 --> 00:43:09.980
 hand

00:43:09.980 --> 00:43:11.500
 of the

00:43:11.500 --> 00:43:11.880
 forgiveness

00:43:11.880 --> 00:43:12.540
 of God

00:43:12.540 --> 00:43:14.660
 that we

00:43:14.660 --> 00:43:15.340
 were dirty

00:43:15.340 --> 00:43:16.980
 and filthy

00:43:16.980 --> 00:43:18.780
 and dead

00:43:18.780 --> 00:43:20.020
 in our

00:43:20.020 --> 00:43:20.640
 trespasses

00:43:20.640 --> 00:43:21.320
 and sins

00:43:21.320 --> 00:43:23.340
 but Jesus

00:43:23.340 --> 00:43:23.780
 through his

00:43:23.780 --> 00:43:24.300
 work on the

00:43:24.300 --> 00:43:24.800
 cross

00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:26.940
 forgave us

00:43:26.940 --> 00:43:28.280
 and through

00:43:28.280 --> 00:43:28.920
 the power

00:43:28.920 --> 00:43:30.560
 of the

00:43:30.560 --> 00:43:31.140
 resurrection

00:43:31.140 --> 00:43:32.280
 gives us

00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:32.760
 life

00:43:32.760 --> 00:43:34.600
 so that we

00:43:34.600 --> 00:43:35.260
 would walk

00:43:35.260 --> 00:43:35.900
 in a reflection

00:43:35.900 --> 00:43:36.520
 of who

00:43:36.520 --> 00:43:37.640
 he is

00:43:37.640 --> 00:43:39.460
 and what

00:43:39.460 --> 00:43:40.100
 he's done

00:43:40.100 --> 00:43:41.880
 and what

00:43:41.880 --> 00:43:42.200
 he will

00:43:42.200 --> 00:43:42.580
 do

00:43:42.580 --> 00:43:45.060
 God as we

00:43:45.060 --> 00:43:45.440
 go from

00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:46.000
 here today

00:43:46.000 --> 00:43:48.500
 may our

00:43:48.500 --> 00:43:49.180
 reputation

00:43:49.180 --> 00:43:51.140
 may what

00:43:51.140 --> 00:43:51.620
 is known

00:43:51.620 --> 00:43:52.360
 of us

00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:54.360
 reflect

00:43:54.360 --> 00:43:56.380
 sinners

00:43:56.380 --> 00:43:58.500
 saved by

00:43:58.500 --> 00:43:58.860
 the grace

00:43:58.860 --> 00:43:59.340
 of God

00:43:59.340 --> 00:44:01.280
 and now

00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:01.880
 saints

00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:03.720
 as we

00:44:03.720 --> 00:44:04.140
 walk with

00:44:04.140 --> 00:44:04.400
 you

00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:07.040
 God it's

00:44:07.040 --> 00:44:07.520
 my prayer

00:44:07.520 --> 00:44:08.020
 for all

00:44:08.020 --> 00:44:08.620
 of us

00:44:08.620 --> 00:44:10.620
 if there's

00:44:10.620 --> 00:44:11.400
 anyone here

00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:12.980
 or who

00:44:12.980 --> 00:44:13.400
 does not

00:44:13.400 --> 00:44:14.160
 know Christ

00:44:14.160 --> 00:44:17.240
 the concept

00:44:17.240 --> 00:44:17.900
 of forgiveness

00:44:17.900 --> 00:44:19.420
 is something

00:44:19.420 --> 00:44:20.260
 that's earned

00:44:20.260 --> 00:44:22.120
 may they

00:44:22.120 --> 00:44:22.540
 understand

00:44:22.540 --> 00:44:23.100
 that the

00:44:23.100 --> 00:44:23.720
 concept of

00:44:23.720 --> 00:44:24.340
 grace

00:44:24.340 --> 00:44:26.460
 the biblical

00:44:26.460 --> 00:44:27.120
 truth of

00:44:27.120 --> 00:44:27.780
 your forgiveness

00:44:27.780 --> 00:44:29.600
 cannot be

00:44:29.600 --> 00:44:30.160
 earned by

00:44:30.160 --> 00:44:30.720
 us

00:44:30.720 --> 00:44:32.820
 but was

00:44:32.820 --> 00:44:33.220
 paid for

00:44:33.220 --> 00:44:33.880
 by Christ

00:44:33.880 --> 00:44:35.840
 and given

00:44:35.840 --> 00:44:36.380
 to all

00:44:36.380 --> 00:44:37.700

00:44:37.700 --> 00:44:38.300
 their faith

00:44:38.300 --> 00:44:39.420
 their hope

00:44:39.420 --> 00:44:40.340
 and their

00:44:40.340 --> 00:44:40.820
 trust

00:44:40.820 --> 00:44:41.880
 in him

00:44:41.880 --> 00:44:44.460
