00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.279
 We're going to begin our worship by singing to God's praise in Psalm 100, the first version of the psalm, the Scottish Psalter, page 362, the Tunis Duke Street.

00:00:11.179 --> 00:00:25.379
 Psalm 100, the first version, all people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerful voice and say with mirth, his praise forth tell, come ye before a man rejoice, we'll stand to sing to God's praise.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:59.980
 All people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerful voice, him said with mirth, his praise forth tell, come ye before them and rejoice.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:17.000
 Know that the Lord is God indeed, where thy daily feet did us make.

00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:34.120
 We are his hope, he doth the seed, and for his sheep he doth us take.

00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:52.120
 Oh, enter then his gates with peace, approach with joy his courts unjewed.

00:01:52.120 --> 00:02:00.120
 Praise God and bless this name always.

00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:30.120
 Please, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if you pray, if

00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:35.620
 O times firm he stood

00:02:35.620 --> 00:02:43.640
 and shall proclaim to his endew.

00:02:49.460 --> 00:02:51.500
 Let's bow our heads in a word of prayer.

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:52.400
 Let us pray.

00:02:54.020 --> 00:02:55.819
 Lord, our gracious God,

00:02:55.900 --> 00:02:57.900
 we come thankful for this day,

00:02:57.900 --> 00:03:00.240
 a day that you have given to us,

00:03:00.300 --> 00:03:03.360
 a day set aside for the great joy

00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:04.599
 and privilege and delight

00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:06.439
 of coming to worship you.

00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:08.200
 We thank you for these words

00:03:08.200 --> 00:03:09.759
 that we have sung together,

00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:11.200
 that we are joining in

00:03:11.200 --> 00:03:12.680
 with a multitude of people

00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:14.860
 who sing praise to you this day,

00:03:14.980 --> 00:03:16.640
 who come to worship you,

00:03:16.700 --> 00:03:18.280
 to hear your word,

00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:20.819
 your very voice speaking to us,

00:03:20.900 --> 00:03:22.040
 for you are one who,

00:03:23.060 --> 00:03:25.340
 your word is living and active,

00:03:25.340 --> 00:03:26.120
 as it says,

00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:26.920
 and we thank you

00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:28.139
 that there is such power

00:03:28.139 --> 00:03:28.799
 in your word

00:03:28.799 --> 00:03:31.379
 to help us in all our daily needs

00:03:31.379 --> 00:03:32.879
 and to remind us

00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:34.299
 that you are God

00:03:34.299 --> 00:03:35.679
 and there is no other.

00:03:36.099 --> 00:03:37.079
 And help us today

00:03:37.079 --> 00:03:37.979
 that we would come

00:03:37.979 --> 00:03:39.379
 to love the Lord

00:03:39.379 --> 00:03:40.439
 with all our heart

00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:41.619
 and to love our neighbour

00:03:41.619 --> 00:03:42.699
 as ourselves.

00:03:43.419 --> 00:03:44.259
 As we think of

00:03:44.259 --> 00:03:45.560
 who you are, Lord,

00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:46.459
 your greatness,

00:03:47.339 --> 00:03:48.500
 how great you are

00:03:48.500 --> 00:03:50.299
 as creator of heaven and earth,

00:03:50.379 --> 00:03:51.879
 and yet you're the one

00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:53.599
 who draws near to us,

00:03:53.699 --> 00:03:54.919
 the one who shepherds us.

00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:56.579
 And we thank you too,

00:03:56.699 --> 00:03:56.819
 Lord,

00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:57.559
 that you give us

00:03:57.559 --> 00:03:59.000
 people in our lives,

00:03:59.099 --> 00:04:00.059
 you give us people

00:04:00.059 --> 00:04:01.459
 around us,

00:04:01.579 --> 00:04:02.759
 friends and families

00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:04.959
 and neighbours

00:04:04.959 --> 00:04:05.879
 and colleagues

00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:07.019
 and even the strangers

00:04:07.019 --> 00:04:07.939
 around us, Lord.

00:04:07.979 --> 00:04:08.519
 We thank you

00:04:08.519 --> 00:04:09.079
 for the world

00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:10.139
 in which we live in,

00:04:10.699 --> 00:04:12.000
 for the billions of people

00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:12.959
 that there are in it,

00:04:13.419 --> 00:04:15.039
 and everyone is known to you.

00:04:15.699 --> 00:04:16.639
 And we pray, Lord,

00:04:16.699 --> 00:04:17.339
 that you would give

00:04:17.339 --> 00:04:19.439
 all people of this world

00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:20.939
 a sense of wonder

00:04:20.939 --> 00:04:21.819
 of who you are,

00:04:21.899 --> 00:04:23.439
 but also a sense of love

00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:24.899
 towards you.

00:04:25.480 --> 00:04:26.480
 But I ask, well, Lord,

00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:27.279
 that we would see

00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:28.500
 a people loving

00:04:28.500 --> 00:04:29.079
 their neighbours

00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:30.300
 as themselves,

00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:31.139
 that we would think

00:04:31.139 --> 00:04:32.500
 of places

00:04:32.500 --> 00:04:32.939
 where there are

00:04:32.939 --> 00:04:33.740
 such difficulties

00:04:33.740 --> 00:04:34.980
 and conflicts

00:04:34.980 --> 00:04:35.680
 and wars

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:36.300
 and so many

00:04:36.300 --> 00:04:37.699
 terrible things happening.

00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:39.159
 We pray, Lord,

00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:40.019
 for your gospel,

00:04:40.159 --> 00:04:42.000
 the good news of God

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:43.920
 to help in every situation.

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:45.759
 So here is today, Lord,

00:04:45.819 --> 00:04:46.720
 look down upon us.

00:04:46.779 --> 00:04:47.180
 We thank you

00:04:47.180 --> 00:04:48.040
 for our young people.

00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:48.660
 We thank you

00:04:48.660 --> 00:04:50.300
 for a time of holiday

00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:51.200
 for the schools,

00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:51.780
 and we pray

00:04:51.780 --> 00:04:52.460
 that teachers

00:04:52.460 --> 00:04:53.620
 and pupils

00:04:53.620 --> 00:04:54.580
 and all the staff

00:04:54.580 --> 00:04:55.460
 would be refreshed

00:04:55.460 --> 00:04:56.740
 and encouraged

00:04:56.740 --> 00:04:57.720
 in this time.

00:04:58.340 --> 00:04:58.860
 May you bless

00:04:58.860 --> 00:04:59.480
 and watch over

00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:00.180
 all who come

00:05:00.180 --> 00:05:01.620
 and go over these weeks.

00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:03.140
 May you remember us

00:05:03.140 --> 00:05:04.420
 in the church here

00:05:04.420 --> 00:05:05.040
 as well as

00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:06.200
 the holiday tweenies

00:05:06.200 --> 00:05:06.680
 goes on

00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:07.300
 and the creche

00:05:07.300 --> 00:05:08.100
 goes on, Lord.

00:05:08.620 --> 00:05:09.080
 We thank you

00:05:09.080 --> 00:05:09.840
 for all who help

00:05:09.840 --> 00:05:10.520
 in these things

00:05:10.520 --> 00:05:11.680
 and for all who attend

00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:12.500
 and even today

00:05:12.500 --> 00:05:13.680
 that your spirit

00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:14.580
 will be upon us

00:05:14.580 --> 00:05:15.460
 to bless us.

00:05:16.100 --> 00:05:16.780
 Watch over us

00:05:16.780 --> 00:05:17.280
 then, we pray,

00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:18.299
 and continue with us.

00:05:18.699 --> 00:05:19.299
 It's all we ask.

00:05:19.359 --> 00:05:20.179
 We ask for the forgiveness

00:05:20.179 --> 00:05:20.899
 of our sin.

00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:21.899
 In Jesus' name,

00:05:22.339 --> 00:05:22.799
 Amen.

00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:26.659
 It's good to see

00:05:26.659 --> 00:05:27.599
 the young ones out today.

00:05:27.659 --> 00:05:28.319
 I know it's a time

00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:28.879
 of holiday

00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:30.019
 and I hope you all

00:05:30.019 --> 00:05:31.819
 enjoy a good holiday,

00:05:31.899 --> 00:05:33.039
 a break from school.

00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:34.339
 Some of you

00:05:34.339 --> 00:05:35.379
 will be staying at home

00:05:35.379 --> 00:05:36.299
 over the holiday time.

00:05:36.419 --> 00:05:37.559
 Some will be going away.

00:05:38.259 --> 00:05:39.559
 But I think of holiday time

00:05:39.559 --> 00:05:40.159
 as a time

00:05:40.159 --> 00:05:41.959
 just to take our eyes

00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:42.919
 off the busyness

00:05:42.919 --> 00:05:43.839
 of what's happening

00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:45.059
 around us every day,

00:05:45.139 --> 00:05:46.299
 whether it's school work.

00:05:46.300 --> 00:05:47.040
 You maybe want to put

00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:48.980
 that away for a while.

00:05:49.620 --> 00:05:50.520
 But then you think to yourself,

00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:52.100
 well, what am I going to do?

00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:53.740
 What am I going to focus on?

00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:54.939
 It's not just going to be

00:05:54.939 --> 00:05:56.620
 sleep and eat, I hope.

00:05:57.020 --> 00:05:57.699
 I hope there's going to be

00:05:57.699 --> 00:05:58.420
 more than that.

00:05:58.480 --> 00:05:59.120
 I'm sure some of you

00:05:59.120 --> 00:05:59.819
 will be helping

00:05:59.819 --> 00:06:01.800
 just now with lambing time.

00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:02.879
 Some of you will be just

00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:04.080
 maybe out and about

00:06:04.080 --> 00:06:05.500
 doing different things.

00:06:05.620 --> 00:06:06.500
 And whether it's at home

00:06:06.500 --> 00:06:07.280
 or whether you're away,

00:06:07.780 --> 00:06:09.259
 keep your eyes out

00:06:09.259 --> 00:06:10.500
 for just different things

00:06:10.500 --> 00:06:11.160
 you might see

00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:13.000
 that you haven't seen before.

00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:14.740
 And with that in mind,

00:06:14.819 --> 00:06:16.560
 I think of just recently

00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:17.579
 I was in Edinburgh.

00:06:18.579 --> 00:06:19.500
 Hands up if you've ever

00:06:19.500 --> 00:06:20.259
 been to Edinburgh.

00:06:20.379 --> 00:06:21.540
 Anybody ever been to Edinburgh?

00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:23.339
 Yeah, there's a few hands

00:06:23.339 --> 00:06:24.959
 going up all right.

00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:26.579
 Who's been on the Royal Mile?

00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:28.019
 Anybody been on the Royal Mile?

00:06:29.060 --> 00:06:29.819
 Do you know where that is?

00:06:29.860 --> 00:06:30.939
 It's near the castle,

00:06:31.060 --> 00:06:31.899
 Edinburgh Castle.

00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:33.199
 The Royal Mile

00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:34.339
 goes up towards it.

00:06:34.379 --> 00:06:35.040
 It's that road.

00:06:35.100 --> 00:06:36.939
 Well, I was at the

00:06:36.939 --> 00:06:38.160
 free church offices,

00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:39.720
 which are just beside

00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:40.500
 the Royal Mile.

00:06:40.500 --> 00:06:42.879
 And we had meetings there.

00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:43.920
 And that's where I used

00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:44.720
 to go to college

00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:45.360
 when I was training

00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:46.480
 to be a minister as well.

00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:47.160
 And every day,

00:06:47.579 --> 00:06:48.779
 I would be walking up

00:06:48.779 --> 00:06:50.180
 and down the Royal Mile.

00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:51.439
 Not the whole mile,

00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:52.579
 but just a part of it

00:06:52.579 --> 00:06:54.019
 to get to the college.

00:06:54.620 --> 00:06:55.600
 And so when I was down

00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:56.160
 just now,

00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:56.819
 just recently,

00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:57.500
 I was thinking about

00:06:57.500 --> 00:06:58.540
 the number of times

00:06:58.540 --> 00:07:00.139
 I'd walked up and down.

00:07:00.220 --> 00:07:00.879
 And the many things

00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:02.879
 I hadn't even noticed before.

00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:06.819
 And a place I didn't often pass

00:07:06.819 --> 00:07:07.800
 when I was down in college,

00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:09.079
 but I passed this week,

00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:10.180
 was a place called

00:07:10.180 --> 00:07:12.319
 John Knox's House.

00:07:12.719 --> 00:07:13.699
 Now, anybody heard of

00:07:13.699 --> 00:07:15.019
 John Knox?

00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:16.620
 He was a very famous

00:07:16.620 --> 00:07:17.579
 Scottish minister

00:07:17.579 --> 00:07:19.219
 a very long time ago

00:07:19.219 --> 00:07:20.500
 in the 1500s.

00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:22.199
 And he was used by God

00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:24.000
 very powerfully in Scotland

00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.500
 for the church in Scotland.

00:07:26.939 --> 00:07:27.599
 And there was this house,

00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:28.079
 it's called

00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:30.259
 John Knox's House.

00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:31.079
 And I thought,

00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:32.039
 wow, that's interesting.

00:07:32.099 --> 00:07:34.159
 It looks a very old building.

00:07:34.159 --> 00:07:35.799
 And it is a very old building.

00:07:35.799 --> 00:07:36.180
 Apparently,

00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:37.799
 it was built in about 1470.

00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:39.579
 So that's more than

00:07:39.579 --> 00:07:41.100
 500 years ago.

00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:43.020
 He didn't always stay in it.

00:07:43.060 --> 00:07:44.180
 There was somebody else in it

00:07:44.180 --> 00:07:45.400
 before him.

00:07:46.139 --> 00:07:47.079
 And what was amazing

00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:48.000
 was on the outside

00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:49.100
 of the walls,

00:07:49.420 --> 00:07:50.960
 there was letters

00:07:50.960 --> 00:07:52.240
 in gold.

00:07:52.819 --> 00:07:53.540
 And I stopped

00:07:53.540 --> 00:07:54.259
 and I started to think,

00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:55.840
 I hadn't noticed that before.

00:07:56.360 --> 00:07:57.420
 What does it say?

00:07:58.139 --> 00:08:00.120
 Well, what it said was

00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:03.340
 to love God above all

00:08:03.339 --> 00:08:05.779
 and love your neighbour

00:08:05.779 --> 00:08:07.359
 as yourself.

00:08:08.299 --> 00:08:08.779
 And I thought,

00:08:09.039 --> 00:08:10.539
 wow, that's amazing.

00:08:11.179 --> 00:08:12.459
 Love God as yourself

00:08:12.459 --> 00:08:13.459
 and love your neighbour,

00:08:13.719 --> 00:08:14.479
 love God

00:08:14.479 --> 00:08:15.560
 and love your neighbour

00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:16.719
 as yourself.

00:08:18.039 --> 00:08:19.000
 There's a verse

00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:19.599
 from the Bible

00:08:19.599 --> 00:08:20.519
 in gold

00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:21.679
 on the side

00:08:21.679 --> 00:08:22.459
 of this house.

00:08:22.719 --> 00:08:23.719
 And it had been there

00:08:23.719 --> 00:08:24.679
 since it was built.

00:08:25.259 --> 00:08:25.559
 Now,

00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:26.819
 in Edinburgh

00:08:26.819 --> 00:08:27.819
 many years ago,

00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:28.659
 there was a fire

00:08:28.659 --> 00:08:29.379
 that destroyed

00:08:29.379 --> 00:08:30.359
 many of the buildings

00:08:30.359 --> 00:08:31.459
 around the Royal Mile.

00:08:31.459 --> 00:08:33.139
 But this one stood.

00:08:33.579 --> 00:08:35.199
 This one didn't get burnt down.

00:08:35.299 --> 00:08:35.840
 It stood

00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:37.139
 even in the midst of fire.

00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:38.659
 And there's God's word

00:08:38.659 --> 00:08:40.340
 still speaking to us.

00:08:40.939 --> 00:08:41.759
 And the Royal Mile

00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:42.879
 is called such

00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:43.460
 because

00:08:43.460 --> 00:08:44.720
 at the bottom

00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:45.519
 of the Royal Mile

00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:46.500
 is a palace,

00:08:46.899 --> 00:08:47.840
 Holyrood Palace.

00:08:48.500 --> 00:08:49.340
 And then on the top

00:08:49.340 --> 00:08:49.840
 of the hill

00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:51.259
 is Edinburgh Castle.

00:08:52.100 --> 00:08:53.100
 And between that,

00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:54.360
 the distance is a mile.

00:08:54.460 --> 00:08:54.799
 And it's called

00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:55.519
 a Royal Mile

00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:56.559
 because the royalty

00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:57.879
 would go from the palace

00:08:57.879 --> 00:08:59.000
 to the castle

00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:00.000
 and back and forth.

00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:00.539
 And I was thinking,

00:09:00.659 --> 00:09:01.240
 well, imagine

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:03.340
 how many of these royals

00:09:03.340 --> 00:09:04.279
 and how many of the servants

00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:05.360
 and how many of the people

00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:07.019
 saw this verse?

00:09:08.460 --> 00:09:10.519
 Love God above all else

00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:11.860
 and your neighbour

00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:13.159
 as yourself.

00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:15.000
 A great reminder

00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:16.500
 to all of us

00:09:16.500 --> 00:09:18.100
 of what's important

00:09:18.100 --> 00:09:19.060
 in life.

00:09:19.100 --> 00:09:19.840
 And this is the text

00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:20.820
 we're going to be looking at

00:09:20.820 --> 00:09:21.879
 today in our service.

00:09:22.419 --> 00:09:23.399
 Love the Lord your God

00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:24.419
 with all your heart

00:09:24.419 --> 00:09:25.580
 and your neighbour

00:09:25.580 --> 00:09:26.820
 as yourself.

00:09:26.899 --> 00:09:27.360
 It doesn't matter

00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:28.220
 if you're royalty,

00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:29.299
 it doesn't matter

00:09:29.299 --> 00:09:30.200
 if you're a servant,

00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:30.660
 it doesn't matter

00:09:30.660 --> 00:09:31.660
 who you are,

00:09:32.259 --> 00:09:33.540
 this is a great command

00:09:33.540 --> 00:09:34.960
 to us all today.

00:09:35.140 --> 00:09:36.600
 So keep your eyes peeled

00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:38.379
 as to what you might see.

00:09:38.520 --> 00:09:39.900
 Many buildings,

00:09:40.040 --> 00:09:40.900
 many old places,

00:09:41.020 --> 00:09:42.020
 they very often have

00:09:42.020 --> 00:09:43.420
 Bible verses

00:09:43.420 --> 00:09:44.740
 in there somewhere.

00:09:45.280 --> 00:09:46.780
 And this one spoke to me

00:09:46.780 --> 00:09:47.320
 that week

00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:47.900
 just saying,

00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:48.840
 love God

00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:50.259
 above all else

00:09:50.259 --> 00:09:51.740
 and love your neighbour

00:09:51.740 --> 00:09:53.140
 as yourself.

00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:54.320
 So may we be able

00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:56.140
 to do that.

00:09:56.139 --> 00:09:56.460
 Well,

00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:57.819
 we're going to say

00:09:57.819 --> 00:09:59.039
 the Lord's Prayer

00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:00.379
 together now.

00:10:00.460 --> 00:10:01.679
 Let's say the Lord's Prayer.

00:10:02.819 --> 00:10:03.919
 Our Father,

00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:05.120
 which art in heaven,

00:10:05.539 --> 00:10:06.980
 hallowed be thy name.

00:10:07.500 --> 00:10:08.720
 Thy kingdom come,

00:10:09.259 --> 00:10:10.319
 thy will be done

00:10:10.319 --> 00:10:10.819
 on earth

00:10:10.819 --> 00:10:12.259
 as it is in heaven.

00:10:12.779 --> 00:10:13.939
 Give us this day

00:10:13.939 --> 00:10:15.000
 our daily bread

00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:16.399
 and forgive us

00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:17.120
 our debts

00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:18.319
 as we forgive

00:10:18.319 --> 00:10:19.299
 our debtors.

00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:20.439
 And lead us

00:10:20.439 --> 00:10:21.720
 not into temptation,

00:10:22.319 --> 00:10:23.259
 but deliver us

00:10:23.259 --> 00:10:24.000
 from evil.

00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:25.820
 For thine is the kingdom,

00:10:26.220 --> 00:10:26.779
 the power

00:10:26.779 --> 00:10:27.679
 and the glory

00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:28.240
 forever.

00:10:28.779 --> 00:10:29.240
 Amen.

00:10:31.220 --> 00:10:32.200
 We'll again

00:10:32.200 --> 00:10:33.639
 sing to God's praise.

00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:34.240
 Now we're going to sing

00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:35.320
 in Psalm 92,

00:10:35.700 --> 00:10:36.820
 again in the Scottish

00:10:36.820 --> 00:10:37.980
 Psalter version.

00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:39.820
 Psalm 92,

00:10:40.059 --> 00:10:41.500
 page 352

00:10:41.500 --> 00:10:42.399
 of the psalm books.

00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:44.200
 We're going to sing

00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:45.100
 from verse 1

00:10:45.100 --> 00:10:46.860
 down to verse 6.

00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:49.299
 The tune is Paisley.

00:10:50.139 --> 00:10:51.600
 Psalm 92 at verse 1.

00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:52.659
 To render thanks

00:10:52.659 --> 00:10:53.399
 unto the Lord

00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.199
 it is a comely thing

00:10:55.199 --> 00:10:56.360
 unto thy name

00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:57.399
 o thou most high

00:10:57.399 --> 00:10:58.299
 due praise

00:10:58.299 --> 00:10:59.939
 allowed to sing.

00:11:00.019 --> 00:11:00.299
 We'll sing

00:11:00.299 --> 00:11:01.079
 from verse 1

00:11:01.079 --> 00:11:01.799
 to 6.

00:11:02.220 --> 00:11:03.000
 To God's praise

00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:04.220
 we stand to sing.

00:11:04.220 --> 00:11:04.879
 Amen.

00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:04.879


00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:12.559
 To render thanks

00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.480
 unto the Lord

00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:20.519
 To desert the living

00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:27.980
 And to thy name, O the Lord,

00:11:27.980 --> 00:11:35.159
 To face the life to sing

00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:42.680
 Thy loving kindness to show forth

00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:49.279
 When shines the morning light

00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:56.519
 And to declare thy faithfulness

00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:03.199
 With pleasure every night

00:12:03.199 --> 00:12:10.079
 On a tempting instrument

00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:15.680
 Upon the solitary

00:12:15.680 --> 00:12:22.120
 And on the harvest

00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:24.639
 All ensign

00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:29.680
 And gifts with melody

00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:39.019
 For thy Lord, my mighty words

00:12:39.019 --> 00:12:45.279
 Has made my heart my cloud

00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:52.879
 And I will triumph in the words

00:12:52.879 --> 00:13:00.159
 Which by thy hands were made

00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:08.500
 How great Lord, thy words teach God

00:13:08.500 --> 00:13:15.219
 Of high and deep it is

00:13:15.220 --> 00:13:18.460
 And if thy thy name

00:13:18.460 --> 00:13:20.620
 And if thy thy name

00:13:20.620 --> 00:13:36.259
 Orthrophot

00:13:36.259 --> 00:13:42.059
 We can turn together to read God's words in the Gospel of Mark, in chapter 12.

00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:49.700
 We're going to take up our reading at verse 28, reading down to verse 40.

00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:55.059
 Mark, chapter 12, at verse 28.

00:13:55.059 --> 00:14:08.579
 In this passage we read there's a question that one of the scribes comes to Jesus with.

00:14:09.179 --> 00:14:17.979
 And what has been happening up to this point is that there have been a number of people coming with questions to Jesus, trying to catch him out.

00:14:17.980 --> 00:14:27.000
 You see at the end of chapter 11 at verse 27 there, the authority of Jesus was challenged.

00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:30.240
 They tried to catch him out on his authority.

00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:37.580
 And then in verse 13 of chapter 12, they've got a question about paying taxes to Caesar.

00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:40.120
 So they're trying to catch him out politically.

00:14:40.920 --> 00:14:44.899
 And then in verse 18, they ask about the resurrection.

00:14:44.899 --> 00:14:48.360
 They're trying to catch him out on a theological point.

00:14:48.439 --> 00:14:53.740
 So they're trying to catch Jesus out in all these different questions that they have.

00:14:53.840 --> 00:15:01.480
 But then there's a sense of change as you come into verse 28 with this question that's asked of Jesus.

00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:04.559
 And this is where we're going to focus our attention today.

00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:07.220
 So at verse 28 we read,

00:15:07.220 --> 00:15:11.379
 And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another.

00:15:11.379 --> 00:15:14.299
 And seeing that he answered them well, asked him,

00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:18.299
 Which commandment is the most important of all?

00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:20.159
 Jesus answered,

00:15:20.539 --> 00:15:22.120
 The most important is,

00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.439
 Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.

00:15:27.139 --> 00:15:30.059
 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,

00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:34.100
 with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.

00:15:34.740 --> 00:15:36.039
 The second is this,

00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:39.219
 You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

00:15:39.860 --> 00:15:42.799
 There is no other commandment greater than these.

00:15:43.599 --> 00:15:45.099
 And the scribes said to him,

00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:46.740
 You are right, teacher.

00:15:47.199 --> 00:15:49.740
 You have truly said that he is one,

00:15:50.219 --> 00:15:52.439
 and there is no other besides him.

00:15:53.019 --> 00:15:54.839
 And to love him with all the heart,

00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:56.419
 and with all the understanding,

00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:58.079
 and with all the strength,

00:15:58.139 --> 00:16:00.319
 and to love one's neighbor as oneself,

00:16:00.319 --> 00:16:04.759
 is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:08.500
 And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely,

00:16:08.620 --> 00:16:09.519
 he said to him,

00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:12.679
 You are not far from the kingdom of God.

00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:14.339
 And after that,

00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:17.339
 no one dared to ask him any more questions.

00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:20.360
 And as Jesus taught in the temple,

00:16:20.459 --> 00:16:20.860
 he said,

00:16:21.339 --> 00:16:24.939
 How can the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

00:16:25.500 --> 00:16:26.459
 David himself,

00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:27.959
 in the Holy Spirit,

00:16:27.959 --> 00:16:28.519
 declared,

00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:30.980
 The Lord said to my Lord,

00:16:31.139 --> 00:16:32.919
 Sit at my right hand

00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:35.159
 until I put your enemies under your feet.

00:16:35.860 --> 00:16:37.639
 David himself calls him Lord.

00:16:38.319 --> 00:16:40.019
 So how is he his son?

00:16:40.740 --> 00:16:43.659
 And the great throng heard him gladly.

00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:45.579
 And in his teaching,

00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:46.079
 he said,

00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:47.720
 Beware of the scribes

00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:50.659
 who like to walk around in long robes,

00:16:51.259 --> 00:16:53.899
 and like greetings in the marketplaces,

00:16:53.899 --> 00:16:57.039
 and have the best seats in the synagogues,

00:16:57.480 --> 00:16:59.480
 and the places of honor at feasts,

00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:01.439
 who devour widows' houses,

00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:04.740
 and for a pretense make long prayers.

00:17:05.420 --> 00:17:08.639
 They will receive the greater condemnation.

00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:10.019
 And so on.

00:17:10.059 --> 00:17:11.299
 And may God add his blessing

00:17:11.299 --> 00:17:13.940
 to that reading from his word.

00:17:15.059 --> 00:17:17.180
 Well, let's again engage in prayer.

00:17:17.339 --> 00:17:19.579
 We'll bow our heads in a word of prayer.

00:17:19.579 --> 00:17:23.319
 Our gracious God,

00:17:23.379 --> 00:17:25.460
 we do thank you for your word.

00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:27.039
 We thank you for the wonder

00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.480
 of how you continue to speak to us as a people,

00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:32.740
 that you show grace towards us

00:17:32.740 --> 00:17:34.399
 as undeserving sinners.

00:17:35.259 --> 00:17:35.899
 And yet, Lord,

00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:38.879
 you still desire that mercy upon us,

00:17:38.939 --> 00:17:40.919
 that we would come and know you

00:17:40.919 --> 00:17:42.699
 and love you with all our heart.

00:17:43.159 --> 00:17:44.639
 And we pray today, Lord,

00:17:44.699 --> 00:17:46.059
 that you would bless your word,

00:17:46.639 --> 00:17:47.299
 that you would bless it

00:17:47.299 --> 00:17:49.059
 not just in our hearing here,

00:17:49.059 --> 00:17:52.359
 or to those who listen in online at home,

00:17:52.460 --> 00:17:56.259
 or who at some point come to hear this service.

00:17:56.379 --> 00:17:57.059
 We pray, Lord,

00:17:57.139 --> 00:17:59.039
 that your word will be blessed

00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:00.859
 to all ends of the earth.

00:18:01.500 --> 00:18:03.419
 For we know that you have your people

00:18:03.419 --> 00:18:04.779
 to all ends.

00:18:04.859 --> 00:18:07.099
 You have your people near and far.

00:18:07.500 --> 00:18:10.740
 That you are one who is building his church.

00:18:11.419 --> 00:18:12.440
 And we thank you, Lord,

00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:15.159
 that your kingdom comes with power.

00:18:15.700 --> 00:18:17.220
 And even in the words that we've read,

00:18:17.220 --> 00:18:19.039
 we're reminded of that kingdom

00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:21.980
 and of how this scribe who came to Jesus

00:18:21.980 --> 00:18:23.839
 with a question was told,

00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:26.000
 you are not far from the kingdom of God.

00:18:26.620 --> 00:18:27.980
 And it can often be a case

00:18:27.980 --> 00:18:30.500
 where we feel close to your kingdom.

00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:34.480
 But sometimes it's so near and yet so far.

00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:36.400
 And we pray today, Lord,

00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:38.579
 that for those who hear your voice

00:18:38.579 --> 00:18:40.539
 and feel that there is still

00:18:40.539 --> 00:18:42.720
 that little distance to be overcome,

00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:44.720
 that you would help, Lord,

00:18:44.779 --> 00:18:45.819
 that by your spirit,

00:18:46.360 --> 00:18:48.039
 you would apply your words

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:49.259
 to each one of us

00:18:49.259 --> 00:18:51.900
 to remind us of your kingdom

00:18:51.900 --> 00:18:54.160
 and the way to your kingdom.

00:18:54.880 --> 00:18:56.680
 That is to see that you have

00:18:56.680 --> 00:18:58.100
 first loved us

00:18:58.100 --> 00:19:00.180
 and given yourself for us.

00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:01.920
 And that we would then come

00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:04.319
 to love you with all our hearts.

00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:05.920
 So bless us, Lord,

00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:07.200
 around your word today.

00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:09.279
 And remember us as a people.

00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:10.819
 Remember us here

00:19:10.819 --> 00:19:12.899
 and remember your people

00:19:12.899 --> 00:19:14.740
 throughout all ends of the earth.

00:19:15.299 --> 00:19:16.279
 So we thank you, Lord,

00:19:16.420 --> 00:19:18.259
 for the power of prayer.

00:19:18.379 --> 00:19:20.639
 We thank you for the many prayers

00:19:20.639 --> 00:19:22.420
 that will be offered up to you today.

00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:23.359
 Not just here,

00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:25.539
 but through all your people

00:19:25.539 --> 00:19:27.759
 in so many different languages

00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:29.339
 and so many different places

00:19:29.339 --> 00:19:31.420
 and so many different circumstances.

00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:34.519
 We thank you that prayer is made to you.

00:19:34.980 --> 00:19:35.819
 And we pray, Lord,

00:19:35.879 --> 00:19:37.759
 that as the hearer of prayer,

00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:39.259
 that you would answer

00:19:39.259 --> 00:19:41.480
 and answer according to your will.

00:19:42.180 --> 00:19:43.099
 And we pray, Lord,

00:19:43.180 --> 00:19:45.680
 today just to see your kingdom

00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:46.700
 come in power,

00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:49.859
 to know that power of Christ

00:19:49.859 --> 00:19:50.640
 in our midst,

00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:51.619
 to know the power

00:19:51.619 --> 00:19:52.700
 of the resurrection,

00:19:53.019 --> 00:19:55.099
 to know the power of your word

00:19:55.099 --> 00:19:56.519
 and your spirit working.

00:19:57.220 --> 00:19:58.240
 And we pray, Lord,

00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:00.180
 that indeed there would be

00:20:00.180 --> 00:20:01.779
 much blessing and rejoicing

00:20:01.779 --> 00:20:03.720
 to all ends of the earth today.

00:20:04.379 --> 00:20:05.480
 May there be rejoicing

00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:07.279
 in one sinner who repents

00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:08.460
 and one who comes

00:20:08.460 --> 00:20:10.579
 to know you and to love you.

00:20:11.220 --> 00:20:12.299
 And we thank you, Lord,

00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:14.480
 for all the kingdom work

00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:15.259
 that you are doing.

00:20:15.420 --> 00:20:16.220
 We thank you, Lord,

00:20:16.299 --> 00:20:17.819
 for the way that you remind us

00:20:17.819 --> 00:20:20.039
 that you are building your church.

00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:23.559
 We think even of the Gambia partnership.

00:20:23.819 --> 00:20:27.799
 Thankful for the very generous collection

00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:28.539
 that was made

00:20:28.539 --> 00:20:30.579
 and for the blessing that that is.

00:20:30.579 --> 00:20:32.460
 It's not just to those

00:20:32.460 --> 00:20:34.220
 who work with the Gambia partnership,

00:20:34.419 --> 00:20:35.619
 but especially to those

00:20:35.619 --> 00:20:37.579
 who receive the Bibles,

00:20:37.779 --> 00:20:39.339
 whether they're written Bibles

00:20:39.339 --> 00:20:40.480
 or audio Bibles.

00:20:40.659 --> 00:20:41.559
 We thank you, Lord,

00:20:41.619 --> 00:20:42.639
 for the great ways

00:20:42.639 --> 00:20:44.639
 that your word goes out there.

00:20:44.740 --> 00:20:47.000
 We pray that it would be blessed.

00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:48.460
 We thank you for all belonging

00:20:48.460 --> 00:20:50.139
 to our congregation here.

00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:52.139
 And indeed, throughout our island,

00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:53.799
 many people have visited there

00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:55.460
 and seen the work going on

00:20:55.460 --> 00:20:56.619
 and been involved in it.

00:20:56.619 --> 00:20:57.939
 And we pray, Lord,

00:20:58.019 --> 00:20:59.579
 that you will bless each one

00:20:59.579 --> 00:21:01.799
 and encourage them in their hearts

00:21:01.799 --> 00:21:02.799
 and help us to have

00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:05.119
 that prayerful awareness

00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:06.519
 of your people there.

00:21:07.159 --> 00:21:09.019
 We thank too of Myanmar

00:21:09.019 --> 00:21:11.059
 and Thailand at this time

00:21:11.059 --> 00:21:13.199
 with the devastating earthquakes there.

00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:15.279
 Having recently heard

00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:17.179
 of the work of the gospel in Myanmar

00:21:17.179 --> 00:21:20.399
 and thankful for your people there,

00:21:20.500 --> 00:21:23.039
 we pray for all people there just now

00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.139
 in the midst of the devastation

00:21:25.139 --> 00:21:26.099
 that has been brought.

00:21:26.619 --> 00:21:28.139
 The loss of life

00:21:28.139 --> 00:21:29.379
 and those still missing.

00:21:29.739 --> 00:21:31.439
 And we just pray, Lord,

00:21:31.579 --> 00:21:33.779
 for your blessing over them,

00:21:33.859 --> 00:21:35.219
 your help towards them.

00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:37.779
 There and in Thailand as well, Lord,

00:21:37.819 --> 00:21:40.779
 we just pray for even good

00:21:40.779 --> 00:21:43.059
 to come out of even these circumstances

00:21:43.059 --> 00:21:44.819
 that people would recognize

00:21:44.819 --> 00:21:46.539
 their need of you

00:21:46.539 --> 00:21:48.719
 and recognize that you alone are God

00:21:48.719 --> 00:21:50.659
 who is able to help.

00:21:51.239 --> 00:21:54.199
 We think too of the ongoing conflicts

00:21:54.199 --> 00:21:55.899
 in the Middle East and the Ukraine

00:21:55.900 --> 00:21:58.940
 and the devastation that that brings.

00:21:59.060 --> 00:22:00.800
 And we just pray, Lord, for peace.

00:22:01.060 --> 00:22:02.480
 We pray, Lord, to see

00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:05.759
 your power at work in these places.

00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:08.000
 We pray to see that, Lord,

00:22:08.100 --> 00:22:09.240
 throughout our lands,

00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.360
 to give wisdom and help

00:22:11.360 --> 00:22:12.980
 to those who rule over us,

00:22:13.080 --> 00:22:15.200
 to give blessing to people

00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:17.120
 throughout our nations, Lord,

00:22:17.180 --> 00:22:19.640
 to see their great need of Jesus,

00:22:19.840 --> 00:22:22.180
 a Savior who has come into this world.

00:22:22.180 --> 00:22:24.420
 I mean, as we think of Easter time

00:22:24.420 --> 00:22:26.460
 and the way the gospel is heard

00:22:26.460 --> 00:22:27.560
 in different places

00:22:27.560 --> 00:22:28.799
 and in different ways,

00:22:29.380 --> 00:22:31.620
 we thank you that there is still

00:22:31.620 --> 00:22:33.279
 that heritage in our land

00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:34.940
 that we are a Christian nation.

00:22:35.560 --> 00:22:36.980
 And though we may have drifted

00:22:36.980 --> 00:22:38.440
 very far from it,

00:22:38.460 --> 00:22:40.140
 we thank you for the Christian influences

00:22:40.140 --> 00:22:40.960
 around us,

00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:43.080
 even the testimony of your word

00:22:43.080 --> 00:22:44.019
 and of your grace

00:22:44.019 --> 00:22:45.759
 down through the years.

00:22:45.940 --> 00:22:46.799
 We pray, Lord,

00:22:46.860 --> 00:22:47.740
 that in these days

00:22:47.740 --> 00:22:49.240
 you will have mercy upon us

00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:51.620
 and turn us again towards you.

00:22:52.140 --> 00:22:53.160
 Continue to bless us

00:22:53.160 --> 00:22:54.519
 as we worship you this day,

00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:55.720
 Lord, look after us

00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:57.039
 and all our loved ones

00:22:57.039 --> 00:22:58.000
 as we commit each other

00:22:58.000 --> 00:22:58.880
 into your hands.

00:22:59.019 --> 00:23:00.200
 Remember those who are away

00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:01.440
 at this time

00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:02.500
 and those who will be coming

00:23:02.500 --> 00:23:03.759
 and going over these weeks

00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:04.740
 of holiday, Lord.

00:23:05.120 --> 00:23:06.680
 Keep people safe and travel

00:23:06.680 --> 00:23:08.099
 and watch over each one.

00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:09.720
 Remember our community,

00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:10.279
 so, Lord,

00:23:10.339 --> 00:23:12.880
 we do pray for your help

00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:14.339
 towards us as a people

00:23:14.339 --> 00:23:15.599
 in all our different needs,

00:23:15.740 --> 00:23:16.740
 those who are unwell,

00:23:16.740 --> 00:23:18.519
 those who are anxious

00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:21.460
 and afraid of the future

00:23:21.460 --> 00:23:23.599
 and what changes might come

00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:25.039
 into our lives.

00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:26.400
 We think of those

00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:28.559
 who are maybe awaiting test results

00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:30.779
 or anxious about ill health,

00:23:30.940 --> 00:23:31.039
 Lord.

00:23:31.099 --> 00:23:32.859
 We pray for help towards them.

00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:34.680
 And especially at this time,

00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:34.940
 Lord,

00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:37.140
 as we have seen so many deaths

00:23:37.140 --> 00:23:37.859
 in our communities

00:23:37.859 --> 00:23:38.940
 in this past week

00:23:38.940 --> 00:23:40.680
 and even in this day

00:23:40.680 --> 00:23:42.019
 and in the days ahead

00:23:42.019 --> 00:23:43.200
 when there are so many funerals

00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:44.120
 to take place,

00:23:44.299 --> 00:23:44.420
 Lord,

00:23:44.420 --> 00:23:45.279
 we do remember

00:23:45.279 --> 00:23:46.740
 all who mourn

00:23:46.740 --> 00:23:47.920
 and grieve at this time,

00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:49.140
 asking for your comfort

00:23:49.140 --> 00:23:49.920
 and your blessing

00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:50.900
 over each one.

00:23:51.900 --> 00:23:52.940
 Especially remember

00:23:52.940 --> 00:23:54.460
 our undertakers

00:23:54.460 --> 00:23:55.220
 at this time

00:23:55.220 --> 00:23:55.759
 and what has been

00:23:55.759 --> 00:23:57.779
 a particularly busy period,

00:23:57.980 --> 00:23:58.140
 Lord.

00:23:58.259 --> 00:23:59.300
 We pray for them,

00:23:59.340 --> 00:23:59.860
 each one,

00:23:59.920 --> 00:24:01.240
 that you will bless them

00:24:01.240 --> 00:24:01.960
 in their hearts

00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:02.980
 and in their souls.

00:24:03.100 --> 00:24:03.840
 In the midst of

00:24:03.840 --> 00:24:05.519
 seeing so much grief

00:24:05.519 --> 00:24:06.400
 and sorrow,

00:24:06.600 --> 00:24:06.779
 Lord,

00:24:06.820 --> 00:24:07.519
 we pray that

00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:08.960
 you would minister

00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:09.980
 to their hearts

00:24:09.980 --> 00:24:11.140
 and into their lives.

00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:12.480
 We pray that

00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:14.099
 for all who feel

00:24:14.099 --> 00:24:15.700
 that voice of grief

00:24:15.700 --> 00:24:16.599
 at this time,

00:24:16.759 --> 00:24:16.900
 Lord,

00:24:16.940 --> 00:24:18.400
 that you will be near

00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:19.420
 to all such

00:24:19.420 --> 00:24:20.420
 and just pray

00:24:20.420 --> 00:24:21.940
 your blessing over them.

00:24:22.500 --> 00:24:23.380
 Hear our prayers,

00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:23.660
 Lord.

00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:24.559
 Continue with us

00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:25.180
 in this day

00:24:25.180 --> 00:24:26.539
 and throughout it,

00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:26.720
 Lord,

00:24:26.779 --> 00:24:27.299
 may we be able

00:24:27.299 --> 00:24:28.279
 to lift our eyes

00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:28.880
 to Jesus

00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:29.880
 and look on him,

00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:31.779
 the one who came

00:24:31.779 --> 00:24:33.200
 to die for our sins,

00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:33.860
 but the one

00:24:33.860 --> 00:24:35.079
 who is risen,

00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:36.019
 who is ascended,

00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:37.339
 who is at the right hand

00:24:37.339 --> 00:24:38.920
 of God our Father.

00:24:39.220 --> 00:24:39.799
 And we pray

00:24:39.799 --> 00:24:40.460
 in his name

00:24:40.460 --> 00:24:41.600
 all of these things

00:24:41.600 --> 00:24:42.620
 with the forgiveness

00:24:42.620 --> 00:24:43.579
 of our sins.

00:24:43.740 --> 00:24:44.860
 In his precious name,

00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:45.720
 Amen.

00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:50.920
 We're going to sing

00:24:50.920 --> 00:24:52.079
 to God's praise again

00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:53.079
 before we turn back

00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:54.200
 to look at this passage.

00:24:54.340 --> 00:24:55.759
 We're singing in Psalm 43

00:24:55.759 --> 00:24:57.079
 in the Sing Psalms.

00:24:59.360 --> 00:25:00.559
 Psalm 43,

00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:02.019
 we'll sing the whole

00:25:02.019 --> 00:25:03.559
 of this psalm together.

00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:06.220
 Page 54 of the psalm books,

00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:07.360
 the tune is Finart.

00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:09.259
 Come,

00:25:09.379 --> 00:25:10.159
 vindicate me,

00:25:10.199 --> 00:25:10.899
 O my God,

00:25:10.939 --> 00:25:12.179
 against this nation.

00:25:12.399 --> 00:25:13.479
 Plead my cause.

00:25:13.639 --> 00:25:14.139
 Deliver me

00:25:14.139 --> 00:25:15.399
 from wicked foes

00:25:15.399 --> 00:25:16.679
 and hypocrites

00:25:16.679 --> 00:25:18.039
 who break your laws.

00:25:18.139 --> 00:25:19.000
 And then at verse 3,

00:25:19.139 --> 00:25:19.500
 it says,

00:25:19.679 --> 00:25:20.740
 send your light forth

00:25:20.740 --> 00:25:21.679
 and your truth.

00:25:22.179 --> 00:25:23.359
 Let them direct me

00:25:23.359 --> 00:25:24.199
 in your grace

00:25:24.199 --> 00:25:24.839
 and bring me

00:25:24.839 --> 00:25:26.079
 to your holy hill

00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:27.599
 and to your sacred

00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:28.699
 dwelling place.

00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:29.279
 We'll sing

00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:30.659
 the whole of this psalm

00:25:30.659 --> 00:25:31.500
 to God's praise

00:25:31.500 --> 00:25:32.799
 and we stand to sing.

00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:32.879
 Amen.

00:25:32.879 --> 00:25:32.879


00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:38.679
 Come,

00:25:38.679 --> 00:25:41.619
 vindicate me,

00:25:41.799 --> 00:25:44.159
 O my God,

00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:48.179
 against this nation.

00:25:48.679 --> 00:25:51.740
 Plead my cause.

00:25:52.259 --> 00:25:54.979
 Deliver me

00:25:54.979 --> 00:25:58.979
 from wicked foes

00:25:58.980 --> 00:26:02.700
 and hypocrites

00:26:02.700 --> 00:26:07.099
 who break your laws.

00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:12.259
 You are my stronghold

00:26:12.259 --> 00:26:14.940
 and my God.

00:26:14.940 --> 00:26:18.700
 Why then have you

00:26:18.700 --> 00:26:21.940
 rejected me?

00:26:21.940 --> 00:26:26.380
 Why must I go

00:26:26.380 --> 00:26:30.259
 about and leave

00:26:30.259 --> 00:26:32.779
 down to the

00:26:32.779 --> 00:26:36.900
 by the enemy?

00:26:39.259 --> 00:26:41.320
 O Savior,

00:26:41.320 --> 00:26:43.680
 I've forth

00:26:43.680 --> 00:26:46.480
 found your truth.

00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:51.320
 Let them direct me

00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:56.639
 and bring me

00:26:56.639 --> 00:27:01.899
 to your holy hill

00:27:01.899 --> 00:27:05.639
 into your sacred

00:27:05.639 --> 00:27:09.639
 dwelling place.

00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:14.960
 then to God's altar

00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.220
 I will go

00:27:18.220 --> 00:27:22.320
 to God my joy

00:27:22.320 --> 00:27:24.960
 and my delight

00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:31.120
 and I will place you

00:27:31.120 --> 00:27:34.320
 with the hand

00:27:34.319 --> 00:27:36.899
 O God you are

00:27:36.899 --> 00:27:38.059
 O God you are

00:27:38.059 --> 00:27:39.639
 my Lord

00:27:39.639 --> 00:27:42.279
 O my

00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:46.059
 Why are you

00:27:46.059 --> 00:27:48.039
 I will cast

00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:50.759
 to my soul

00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:53.799
 Why are you

00:27:53.799 --> 00:27:54.700
 so

00:27:54.700 --> 00:27:55.639
 disturbed

00:27:55.639 --> 00:27:58.720
 in me

00:27:58.720 --> 00:28:01.119
 Trust God

00:28:01.119 --> 00:28:02.839
 for I

00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:03.359
 will

00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:04.439
 listen

00:28:04.439 --> 00:28:06.439
 yet

00:28:06.439 --> 00:28:07.639
 my

00:28:07.639 --> 00:28:08.439
 Savior

00:28:08.439 --> 00:28:10.799
 and

00:28:10.799 --> 00:28:11.579
 my

00:28:11.579 --> 00:28:12.919
 God

00:28:12.919 --> 00:28:13.659
 is

00:28:13.659 --> 00:28:14.439
 He

00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:19.759
 Amen

00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:19.759


00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:25.519
 We can turn back to our reading in Mark chapter 12 and look at verse 28 in this section.

00:28:26.580 --> 00:28:33.580
 Where one of the scribes came and had heard him disputing with one another and seeing that he answered them well asked him,

00:28:33.579 --> 00:28:40.579
 which commandment is the most important of all?

00:28:40.579 --> 00:28:41.919
 That's the question that we see here.

00:28:42.439 --> 00:28:44.819
 And then we see Jesus answering the question.

00:28:44.939 --> 00:28:46.379
 The most important is,

00:28:46.779 --> 00:28:47.359
 Hear O Israel,

00:28:47.859 --> 00:28:48.679
 the Lord our God,

00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:49.240
 the Lord

00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:50.899
 is one

00:28:50.899 --> 00:28:53.859
 and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,

00:28:53.939 --> 00:28:54.859
 with all your soul,

00:28:54.960 --> 00:28:55.939
 with all your mind

00:28:55.940 --> 00:28:57.980
 and with all your strength.

00:28:58.340 --> 00:28:59.660
 And the second is this,

00:28:59.700 --> 00:29:03.160
 you shall love your neighbor as yourself.

00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:09.200
 What's the best bit of advice you've ever been given?

00:29:10.500 --> 00:29:16.920
 It might be something that's just stuck with you all your days since you heard it being given to you.

00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:18.480
 Not the kind of advice that says,

00:29:18.660 --> 00:29:20.180
 Why are you doing it like that?

00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:21.259
 You should do it like this.

00:29:21.259 --> 00:29:25.480
 It's that kind of annoying bit of advice we can often get frustrated with,

00:29:25.579 --> 00:29:28.619
 but a bit of advice that's been given to you and you've thought,

00:29:28.819 --> 00:29:31.359
 I need to listen to that.

00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:34.180
 But did you listen?

00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:36.559
 Are you still listening to it?

00:29:37.019 --> 00:29:40.440
 It might have been a bit of advice about planning for the future,

00:29:40.559 --> 00:29:43.279
 maybe financially planning your future.

00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:47.960
 It might have been about what job to take or not to take as you were considering that.

00:29:48.460 --> 00:29:50.900
 Maybe it's advice you're sort of hearing just now.

00:29:50.900 --> 00:29:52.320
 If you're younger and you're thinking,

00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:54.360
 What am I to do going forward?

00:29:54.460 --> 00:29:56.780
 Am I going to go to university or college?

00:29:56.980 --> 00:29:58.220
 Am I going to go to work?

00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:00.060
 What should I do?

00:30:00.080 --> 00:30:03.220
 And there's all kinds of advice being offered to you.

00:30:04.140 --> 00:30:06.700
 In the midst of all this advice that's coming your way,

00:30:06.840 --> 00:30:09.840
 the trouble is what to listen to.

00:30:09.940 --> 00:30:12.220
 And do we listen to it?

00:30:12.780 --> 00:30:14.440
 Somebody once put it like this,

00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:20.280
 The trouble with good advice is that it usually interferes with your plans.

00:30:20.900 --> 00:30:26.920
 That's often the sense that we get good advice often interferes with your plans.

00:30:27.740 --> 00:30:33.160
 And when you think of the gospel and what Jesus says to us in the gospel,

00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:36.200
 it isn't just advice.

00:30:36.420 --> 00:30:41.259
 It's not just a bit of advice in the midst of what other people are offering to us.

00:30:41.620 --> 00:30:44.060
 Here is an option for us to listen to.

00:30:44.400 --> 00:30:45.560
 It's not advice.

00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:47.139
 Yes, it's commands.

00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:50.399
 And because it's commands,

00:30:50.839 --> 00:30:52.799
 we have to ask ourselves,

00:30:53.159 --> 00:30:54.799
 Are we listening to it?

00:30:55.619 --> 00:30:59.579
 And as Jesus was speaking to the scribes and the Pharisees,

00:30:59.619 --> 00:31:00.779
 as we're reading here,

00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:02.500
 they were hearing what he was saying,

00:31:02.579 --> 00:31:05.519
 and it was almost like they were taking it as advice.

00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:08.659
 Here is an option for you.

00:31:08.660 --> 00:31:10.680
 But what Jesus was saying,

00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:11.600
 it's not advice,

00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:13.120
 it's commands.

00:31:14.700 --> 00:31:17.920
 And are you listening to these commands?

00:31:19.340 --> 00:31:23.800
 And as we think of this setting of this passage before us,

00:31:23.940 --> 00:31:29.080
 it's in the midst of Jesus' final week before the crucifixion.

00:31:29.079 --> 00:31:30.460
 And if you like,

00:31:30.619 --> 00:31:32.220
 tensions are running high.

00:31:33.019 --> 00:31:36.559
 There are those who have seen and heard what Jesus was doing.

00:31:37.019 --> 00:31:38.379
 They've marveled at him,

00:31:38.899 --> 00:31:40.799
 and many have come to follow him.

00:31:41.159 --> 00:31:44.460
 But there are those also who have seen him as more of a threat,

00:31:44.599 --> 00:31:46.139
 someone that needs to be dealt with,

00:31:46.220 --> 00:31:47.679
 someone that needs to be got rid of.

00:31:48.259 --> 00:31:50.659
 And so there's this tension that's mounting.

00:31:51.199 --> 00:31:51.759
 And ultimately,

00:31:51.879 --> 00:31:56.460
 this tension is going to come to the point where Jesus is put onto the cross,

00:31:56.519 --> 00:31:57.419
 where he's crucified.

00:31:57.420 --> 00:31:59.920
 But before you come to that point,

00:32:00.019 --> 00:32:02.800
 you see that they're trying to catch him out.

00:32:03.019 --> 00:32:07.120
 They're determined to get something that they can hold against him.

00:32:07.180 --> 00:32:09.940
 And that's what I was pointing out before we read,

00:32:10.019 --> 00:32:14.519
 as you see at the end of chapter 11 and into chapter 12,

00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:18.500
 they're trying to catch him out on all these different things.

00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:23.039
 Whether it's his authority or political ways,

00:32:23.120 --> 00:32:24.600
 paying taxes to Caesar,

00:32:24.980 --> 00:32:26.080
 who are we to pay?

00:32:26.079 --> 00:32:29.679
 Or the resurrection and questions of theology.

00:32:29.679 --> 00:32:32.639
 They're trying to catch him out.

00:32:33.439 --> 00:32:37.159
 Trying to catch him so that they can put down on him.

00:32:38.099 --> 00:32:41.759
 But Jesus, as he answers all of these challenges,

00:32:42.519 --> 00:32:47.000
 he comes to say that you do not know the Scriptures.

00:32:47.740 --> 00:32:51.519
 You do not understand what the Word of God is saying.

00:32:51.519 --> 00:32:55.700
 If you did, you wouldn't be asking these questions in this way.

00:32:56.700 --> 00:33:00.079
 But then you come into verse 28.

00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:04.740
 And there's this encounter of Jesus here,

00:33:04.819 --> 00:33:07.559
 and one of the scribes who comes up to him.

00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:12.119
 And they've heard this debate that's going on.

00:33:12.259 --> 00:33:16.339
 And you sense there's just something different here.

00:33:16.339 --> 00:33:23.039
 There's something more to this encounter than just trying to trick Jesus or catch him out.

00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:29.519
 The question that we have here is more looking from the heart.

00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:37.180
 Not to catch him out, but almost coming pleading with a help me understand kind of attitude.

00:33:37.180 --> 00:33:40.080
 We're hearing what you're saying.

00:33:40.900 --> 00:33:45.279
 And maybe it isn't just advice that we can choose whether we follow or not.

00:33:46.160 --> 00:33:49.299
 Instead, is it a command that we are to obey?

00:33:49.420 --> 00:33:51.840
 That's what's at the heart of this question.

00:33:51.839 --> 00:33:57.639
 And it's an encounter with Jesus, with Jesus meeting this man.

00:33:58.179 --> 00:34:03.599
 And he's got this question, this burning question in his heart.

00:34:04.019 --> 00:34:06.539
 He wants to understand.

00:34:08.219 --> 00:34:11.960
 So how do you come to the Word of God today?

00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:13.500
 How do you come here today?

00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:17.759
 Or how do you come as you tune in online to come and hear the Word of God?

00:34:17.920 --> 00:34:19.799
 How are you approaching Jesus?

00:34:19.800 --> 00:34:24.039
 Is it to come and find fault with him?

00:34:24.600 --> 00:34:26.580
 To find something wrong with him?

00:34:26.660 --> 00:34:29.560
 To find a reason to turn away from him?

00:34:30.080 --> 00:34:34.280
 Or are you coming with that heart, seeking to understand?

00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:38.480
 With that longing to come and see for yourself,

00:34:38.640 --> 00:34:39.700
 Jesus, help me.

00:34:40.100 --> 00:34:44.500
 Help me to understand what this means for my life.

00:34:44.500 --> 00:34:51.260
 Well, Jesus, in the midst of this question that he's asked,

00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:55.199
 gives a wonderful answer that goes right to the heart.

00:34:55.900 --> 00:34:59.420
 It goes right to the heart of what it means to be saved.

00:35:00.139 --> 00:35:02.900
 It goes right to the heart of what it means to worship.

00:35:02.900 --> 00:35:07.960
 And so what Jesus says to this man and those who are hearing,

00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:10.559
 in his hearing there as well,

00:35:11.360 --> 00:35:13.860
 it is so much to say to us today.

00:35:14.740 --> 00:35:18.579
 Even just thinking of the context of Jesus here,

00:35:19.440 --> 00:35:21.300
 on his way to Jerusalem,

00:35:21.420 --> 00:35:23.099
 on his way to the cross,

00:35:23.180 --> 00:35:23.820
 to be crucified,

00:35:24.099 --> 00:35:26.220
 knowing what's ahead of him.

00:35:26.219 --> 00:35:30.639
 How we often see he has that heart for the people,

00:35:30.759 --> 00:35:31.319
 that longing,

00:35:31.839 --> 00:35:33.799
 that they would come to understand

00:35:33.799 --> 00:35:35.519
 all that he has come to do.

00:35:36.099 --> 00:35:39.559
 How he has come to show them such a great love,

00:35:40.659 --> 00:35:44.799
 and that they are to show him that love in return.

00:35:46.419 --> 00:35:47.959
 And we want to see three things

00:35:47.959 --> 00:35:50.119
 from this passage together this morning.

00:35:50.659 --> 00:35:51.819
 And the first thing we're going to look at

00:35:51.819 --> 00:35:53.459
 is the question that's asked.

00:35:53.460 --> 00:35:55.900
 And then secondly,

00:35:55.980 --> 00:35:57.780
 we're going to look at the question answered.

00:35:58.760 --> 00:35:59.920
 And then the third thing is

00:35:59.920 --> 00:36:02.300
 we're going to think of the question applied.

00:36:03.800 --> 00:36:05.280
 So the first thing we want to look at

00:36:05.280 --> 00:36:07.699
 is the question that's asked.

00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:12.000
 And where does this question come from?

00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:14.880
 Where does this question come from?

00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:18.800
 Which commandment is the most important of all

00:36:18.800 --> 00:36:20.099
 is the question.

00:36:20.780 --> 00:36:22.019
 Where does it come from?

00:36:22.019 --> 00:36:24.480
 Well, the first thing we notice

00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:26.340
 about the question asked

00:36:26.340 --> 00:36:29.460
 is the one who asks the question.

00:36:31.059 --> 00:36:33.179
 One of the scribes came up

00:36:33.179 --> 00:36:35.139
 and heard them disputing with one another

00:36:35.139 --> 00:36:37.519
 and seeing that he answered them well,

00:36:37.759 --> 00:36:38.380
 asked him.

00:36:38.500 --> 00:36:42.000
 So who is it that's asking this question?

00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.079
 It's one of the scribes,

00:36:45.179 --> 00:36:47.539
 one of the teachers of the law.

00:36:48.239 --> 00:36:49.679
 He was one of those who would have been

00:36:49.679 --> 00:36:52.779
 the group who were opposed to Jesus and his teaching.

00:36:53.779 --> 00:36:55.980
 They were looking and seeing him

00:36:55.980 --> 00:36:58.339
 almost as a threat to their authority,

00:36:58.719 --> 00:36:59.940
 to their position.

00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:02.440
 They were the ones who had the law.

00:37:03.079 --> 00:37:04.739
 They were the ones who told the people

00:37:04.739 --> 00:37:06.519
 what they should do and not do.

00:37:07.279 --> 00:37:10.039
 And so Jesus is a threat to them.

00:37:10.039 --> 00:37:12.659
 And yet with him,

00:37:12.659 --> 00:37:13.779
 with this scribe,

00:37:14.259 --> 00:37:16.980
 there seems to be something different.

00:37:18.699 --> 00:37:21.739
 He came up and heard them disputing with one another

00:37:21.739 --> 00:37:25.119
 and seeing that he answered them well.

00:37:26.219 --> 00:37:27.880
 What Jesus was saying,

00:37:28.199 --> 00:37:29.699
 it stood out to him.

00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:32.500
 It made an impact on him.

00:37:32.500 --> 00:37:34.679
 It started to open his mind

00:37:34.679 --> 00:37:36.219
 to something that he was hearing,

00:37:37.000 --> 00:37:38.320
 something different

00:37:38.320 --> 00:37:40.900
 and a different way for him to see things,

00:37:42.099 --> 00:37:44.420
 seeing that he answered them well.

00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:47.639
 And that's what being in the presence

00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:50.199
 of Jesus can do to you.

00:37:51.139 --> 00:37:52.380
 It can do to us all

00:37:52.380 --> 00:37:54.579
 as we come into the presence of Jesus.

00:37:54.719 --> 00:37:58.099
 We come to hear the word of God speaking to us.

00:37:58.099 --> 00:38:02.819
 It reminds us of all that God has done well.

00:38:03.860 --> 00:38:07.019
 All that God has done for us.

00:38:08.039 --> 00:38:12.159
 What he heard from Jesus impacted upon him.

00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:14.219
 And to this day,

00:38:14.319 --> 00:38:16.599
 that is what it does to people as well.

00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:20.099
 No matter how opposed people might be at first,

00:38:20.179 --> 00:38:23.219
 the word of God is powerful to speak.

00:38:24.599 --> 00:38:26.420
 And we always need to have that

00:38:26.420 --> 00:38:27.500
 in the back of our minds.

00:38:27.500 --> 00:38:28.920
 Whatever we're doing for the Lord,

00:38:29.019 --> 00:38:31.579
 whatever we're sharing the word of God,

00:38:32.380 --> 00:38:35.199
 the word of God is powerful to speak.

00:38:35.280 --> 00:38:36.639
 We think even of that encouragement

00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:38.380
 with the Gambia partnership

00:38:38.380 --> 00:38:40.079
 and the Bibles going out there,

00:38:40.239 --> 00:38:42.760
 audio Bibles, written Bibles.

00:38:43.659 --> 00:38:46.980
 That word is powerful to speak.

00:38:48.940 --> 00:38:50.639
 A minister recently was sharing

00:38:50.639 --> 00:38:53.460
 about a home Bible study group

00:38:53.460 --> 00:38:55.340
 that we're meeting through his church.

00:38:55.340 --> 00:38:58.400
 Different parts of a city they were meeting.

00:38:59.100 --> 00:38:59.980
 And in one group,

00:39:00.220 --> 00:39:02.300
 a woman had come in who was an atheist.

00:39:03.200 --> 00:39:05.720
 She didn't believe in God at all.

00:39:05.860 --> 00:39:07.800
 And yet someone had spoken to her

00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:09.840
 and told her about this group that was meeting

00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:11.079
 and invited her along.

00:39:11.740 --> 00:39:12.940
 Probably maybe wondering,

00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:14.640
 I wonder, will she come?

00:39:15.519 --> 00:39:16.720
 After all, she's an atheist.

00:39:16.860 --> 00:39:18.059
 What interest would she have

00:39:18.059 --> 00:39:19.660
 in the things of God?

00:39:19.659 --> 00:39:21.579
 And yet she did.

00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:24.199
 She came along to this group.

00:39:24.659 --> 00:39:26.139
 Came along one week and listened.

00:39:27.019 --> 00:39:29.219
 And then she was back the next time as well.

00:39:30.259 --> 00:39:33.940
 She began to enjoy hearing about the word of God,

00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:35.339
 hearing about Jesus,

00:39:36.579 --> 00:39:39.000
 and beginning to question atheism.

00:39:40.000 --> 00:39:41.119
 Is there a God?

00:39:41.839 --> 00:39:43.299
 Could this God be real?

00:39:43.300 --> 00:39:45.600
 Is this word speaking to me

00:39:45.600 --> 00:39:46.800
 in a more powerful,

00:39:46.940 --> 00:39:48.320
 in a more meaningful way?

00:39:49.519 --> 00:39:50.760
 And that's the power

00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:52.860
 that God's word has.

00:39:54.060 --> 00:39:55.760
 That's what we see with this scribe

00:39:55.760 --> 00:39:57.660
 who came to ask this question.

00:39:58.140 --> 00:40:00.800
 He came having seen something in Jesus,

00:40:00.900 --> 00:40:02.640
 how he answered well

00:40:02.640 --> 00:40:04.160
 in all the disputes

00:40:04.160 --> 00:40:05.460
 that they had been having.

00:40:05.460 --> 00:40:08.880
 And so the second thing we see

00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:09.679
 about this man,

00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:11.420
 the question being asked,

00:40:11.539 --> 00:40:12.740
 is that what he heard

00:40:12.740 --> 00:40:14.139
 was good.

00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:16.800
 And you see that

00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:18.519
 in how he sees Jesus

00:40:18.519 --> 00:40:20.760
 and he answered them well.

00:40:22.220 --> 00:40:25.240
 It wasn't just a clever answer

00:40:25.240 --> 00:40:26.539
 that Jesus was given.

00:40:26.639 --> 00:40:27.840
 It means more than that.

00:40:28.340 --> 00:40:30.019
 But he answered them well.

00:40:30.740 --> 00:40:32.480
 There was something more powerful

00:40:32.480 --> 00:40:34.480
 about what Jesus was saying

00:40:34.480 --> 00:40:35.780
 compared to anything else

00:40:35.780 --> 00:40:37.240
 that he was hearing.

00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:40.099
 This word was full.

00:40:41.059 --> 00:40:42.480
 What Jesus was saying

00:40:42.480 --> 00:40:44.320
 had no comeback.

00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:46.679
 We see that

00:40:46.679 --> 00:40:48.920
 and how in all these different ways

00:40:48.920 --> 00:40:50.340
 he'd been asking questions.

00:40:50.579 --> 00:40:52.579
 You see at the end of this section

00:40:52.579 --> 00:40:53.639
 in verse 34,

00:40:54.579 --> 00:40:54.980
 it says,

00:40:55.260 --> 00:40:56.460
 after that no one dared

00:40:56.460 --> 00:40:58.300
 to ask him any more questions.

00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:00.960
 What Jesus was saying

00:41:00.960 --> 00:41:01.780
 was complete.

00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:02.719
 It was good.

00:41:03.159 --> 00:41:04.260
 It was full.

00:41:04.480 --> 00:41:05.619
 There was no way

00:41:05.619 --> 00:41:08.000
 of coming back against it.

00:41:10.340 --> 00:41:12.099
 And that's what we can take

00:41:12.099 --> 00:41:13.480
 for ourselves as well

00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:14.579
 of the word of God.

00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:16.920
 It gives answers to us

00:41:16.920 --> 00:41:18.659
 that are complete and full.

00:41:19.940 --> 00:41:21.780
 Even the most searching questions

00:41:21.780 --> 00:41:23.260
 that we might have.

00:41:24.420 --> 00:41:25.639
 You have to give

00:41:25.639 --> 00:41:27.800
 the word of God a chance.

00:41:27.980 --> 00:41:29.480
 So many people just dismiss

00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:30.619
 God's word.

00:41:30.740 --> 00:41:31.920
 They don't want to hear.

00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:32.780
 They think they know

00:41:32.780 --> 00:41:33.420
 the answers.

00:41:35.460 --> 00:41:37.980
 But if you're truly wondering,

00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:39.700
 what does the word of God say?

00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:41.720
 Well, give it a chance.

00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:45.559
 Have you given the word of God

00:41:45.559 --> 00:41:46.920
 a chance to speak

00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:48.159
 into your heart,

00:41:48.240 --> 00:41:49.380
 into your situation?

00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:51.139
 Or have you just pushed it away

00:41:51.139 --> 00:41:51.860
 thinking you know

00:41:51.860 --> 00:41:53.360
 the answer already?

00:41:54.500 --> 00:41:55.320
 You think to yourself,

00:41:55.320 --> 00:41:57.559
 what questions do I have

00:41:57.559 --> 00:41:58.920
 that the Bible can answer?

00:42:00.820 --> 00:42:02.019
 Well, come and see

00:42:02.019 --> 00:42:04.420
 the wonderful range of answers

00:42:04.420 --> 00:42:05.840
 that the Bible gives to us

00:42:05.840 --> 00:42:06.660
 about life,

00:42:07.460 --> 00:42:08.200
 about death,

00:42:08.300 --> 00:42:09.100
 about eternity,

00:42:09.240 --> 00:42:10.700
 about all the big issues

00:42:10.700 --> 00:42:11.180
 in life.

00:42:11.260 --> 00:42:12.620
 We find the word of God

00:42:12.620 --> 00:42:14.940
 speaks into every one of them.

00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:16.940
 It speaks truth.

00:42:17.059 --> 00:42:18.019
 It speaks well.

00:42:18.019 --> 00:42:19.599
 It speaks good.

00:42:19.739 --> 00:42:20.619
 It speaks in a way

00:42:20.619 --> 00:42:21.440
 that we have no way

00:42:21.440 --> 00:42:23.139
 of coming back against it.

00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:25.900
 You almost might come

00:42:25.900 --> 00:42:26.440
 to the point

00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:27.320
 where you dare ask

00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:28.759
 no more questions

00:42:28.759 --> 00:42:30.139
 if you're against it

00:42:30.139 --> 00:42:31.400
 because you're afraid

00:42:31.400 --> 00:42:32.719
 the answers might be given

00:42:32.719 --> 00:42:33.340
 to you.

00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:36.699
 If you could ask

00:42:36.699 --> 00:42:38.320
 one thing of the Lord,

00:42:38.440 --> 00:42:39.199
 what would it be?

00:42:40.599 --> 00:42:41.559
 What question would you

00:42:41.559 --> 00:42:42.940
 want to come and ask

00:42:42.940 --> 00:42:43.500
 the Lord?

00:42:44.480 --> 00:42:45.480
 Well, come with it.

00:42:46.239 --> 00:42:47.380
 Give the word of God

00:42:47.380 --> 00:42:48.599
 a chance to answer

00:42:48.599 --> 00:42:50.220
 those questions.

00:42:50.460 --> 00:42:52.160
 That's what this scribe does.

00:42:52.579 --> 00:42:54.000
 He has this question

00:42:54.000 --> 00:42:55.260
 that he wants to ask.

00:42:56.480 --> 00:42:57.160
 And the third thing

00:42:57.160 --> 00:42:58.079
 we see about the question

00:42:58.079 --> 00:42:58.700
 being asked,

00:42:58.800 --> 00:43:00.940
 it's a personal question.

00:43:01.880 --> 00:43:02.640
 It's something that's

00:43:02.640 --> 00:43:03.640
 very much weighing

00:43:03.640 --> 00:43:04.740
 heavy upon him.

00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:06.119
 Probably a question

00:43:06.119 --> 00:43:06.760
 he's maybe been

00:43:06.760 --> 00:43:07.820
 mulling over

00:43:07.820 --> 00:43:08.840
 in his own mind

00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:10.519
 long before he's heard

00:43:10.519 --> 00:43:11.380
 Jesus talking

00:43:11.380 --> 00:43:12.240
 at this point.

00:43:12.440 --> 00:43:12.820
 Wondering,

00:43:13.180 --> 00:43:14.599
 is this really the way

00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:15.440
 we should be living?

00:43:15.440 --> 00:43:17.579
 You see,

00:43:17.720 --> 00:43:19.400
 the question is so personal.

00:43:19.519 --> 00:43:20.340
 Which commandment

00:43:20.340 --> 00:43:21.920
 is the most important

00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:22.539
 of all?

00:43:22.860 --> 00:43:24.619
 Why is he asking that?

00:43:26.039 --> 00:43:27.260
 Why is he asking about

00:43:27.260 --> 00:43:28.720
 which commandment

00:43:28.720 --> 00:43:29.800
 is the most important

00:43:29.800 --> 00:43:30.280
 of all?

00:43:30.700 --> 00:43:31.579
 Well, because

00:43:31.579 --> 00:43:33.059
 as a scribe

00:43:33.059 --> 00:43:34.099
 he was so used to

00:43:34.099 --> 00:43:35.179
 having hundreds

00:43:35.179 --> 00:43:36.300
 of laws,

00:43:36.500 --> 00:43:38.079
 hundreds of commandments

00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:38.820
 that he taught

00:43:38.820 --> 00:43:39.500
 the people

00:43:39.500 --> 00:43:40.639
 that this is how

00:43:40.639 --> 00:43:41.340
 you are to live.

00:43:41.420 --> 00:43:42.059
 There was more than

00:43:42.059 --> 00:43:44.039
 600 laws

00:43:44.039 --> 00:43:44.840
 or commands

00:43:44.840 --> 00:43:45.500
 that the people

00:43:45.500 --> 00:43:46.599
 had to live by.

00:43:48.299 --> 00:43:49.019
 And there was

00:43:49.019 --> 00:43:50.139
 always discussion,

00:43:50.279 --> 00:43:51.279
 always debate

00:43:51.279 --> 00:43:51.920
 going on about

00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:52.779
 which were the most

00:43:52.779 --> 00:43:53.799
 important.

00:43:55.219 --> 00:43:56.000
 Some were of a

00:43:56.000 --> 00:43:56.840
 positive nature,

00:43:57.039 --> 00:43:58.480
 some of a negative

00:43:58.480 --> 00:43:59.039
 nature.

00:43:59.980 --> 00:44:00.659
 And then they were

00:44:00.659 --> 00:44:01.860
 divided into groups

00:44:01.860 --> 00:44:03.019
 of the heavy

00:44:03.019 --> 00:44:03.880
 and the light

00:44:03.880 --> 00:44:04.539
 commands.

00:44:05.799 --> 00:44:06.739
 And so they were

00:44:06.739 --> 00:44:07.440
 weighing down,

00:44:07.539 --> 00:44:08.079
 there was a heavy

00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:09.739
 burden on the people.

00:44:09.820 --> 00:44:10.559
 They couldn't agree

00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:11.619
 amongst themselves

00:44:11.619 --> 00:44:12.699
 which were the

00:44:12.699 --> 00:44:13.659
 most important

00:44:13.659 --> 00:44:14.440
 ones.

00:44:15.639 --> 00:44:16.360
 And so that's

00:44:16.360 --> 00:44:17.079
 what's behind

00:44:17.079 --> 00:44:18.559
 this question.

00:44:20.840 --> 00:44:22.440
 Which is the most,

00:44:22.679 --> 00:44:23.519
 which commandment

00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:24.119
 is the most

00:44:24.119 --> 00:44:24.820
 important

00:44:24.820 --> 00:44:25.659
 of all?

00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:26.440
 Of all the

00:44:26.440 --> 00:44:26.920
 hundreds

00:44:26.920 --> 00:44:28.199
 of commands

00:44:28.199 --> 00:44:28.799
 that we have,

00:44:29.179 --> 00:44:29.840
 which is the

00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:30.759
 most important

00:44:30.759 --> 00:44:31.619
 of all?

00:44:31.699 --> 00:44:32.299
 Which one

00:44:32.299 --> 00:44:33.559
 can we focus

00:44:33.559 --> 00:44:34.400
 on?

00:44:36.739 --> 00:44:37.799
 They loved

00:44:37.799 --> 00:44:38.699
 to debate.

00:44:38.699 --> 00:44:38.759
 debate.

00:44:39.500 --> 00:44:40.079
 They loved

00:44:40.079 --> 00:44:40.719
 to discuss

00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:41.460
 all these

00:44:41.460 --> 00:44:42.379
 different commands

00:44:42.379 --> 00:44:43.559
 but so often

00:44:43.559 --> 00:44:44.000
 they were just

00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:44.899
 weighing heavy.

00:44:46.519 --> 00:44:47.019
 And that's

00:44:47.019 --> 00:44:47.759
 often the case

00:44:47.759 --> 00:44:48.559
 with ourselves

00:44:48.559 --> 00:44:49.139
 as well.

00:44:49.199 --> 00:44:49.839
 The questions

00:44:49.839 --> 00:44:50.519
 we have

00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:51.319
 are ones

00:44:51.319 --> 00:44:52.079
 we might love

00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:52.679
 to debate

00:44:52.679 --> 00:44:53.579
 back and forth

00:44:53.579 --> 00:44:54.339
 and discuss

00:44:54.339 --> 00:44:55.659
 in different ways

00:44:55.659 --> 00:44:56.139
 but we have

00:44:56.139 --> 00:44:56.759
 to come to the

00:44:56.759 --> 00:44:57.439
 point and ask

00:44:57.439 --> 00:44:57.919
 ourselves

00:44:57.919 --> 00:44:59.079
 but which is

00:44:59.079 --> 00:44:59.500
 the most

00:44:59.500 --> 00:45:00.699
 important question?

00:45:02.339 --> 00:45:03.000
 What's the

00:45:03.000 --> 00:45:03.779
 most important

00:45:03.779 --> 00:45:04.859
 thing that we

00:45:04.859 --> 00:45:05.759
 have to focus

00:45:05.760 --> 00:45:06.240
 on?

00:45:09.200 --> 00:45:10.200
 What am I

00:45:10.200 --> 00:45:11.280
 to do?

00:45:12.020 --> 00:45:12.740
 That's what's

00:45:12.740 --> 00:45:13.460
 behind the

00:45:13.460 --> 00:45:14.780
 question that's

00:45:14.780 --> 00:45:15.280
 asked.

00:45:16.640 --> 00:45:17.500
 Which is the

00:45:17.500 --> 00:45:18.700
 most important

00:45:18.700 --> 00:45:20.040
 commandment?

00:45:21.760 --> 00:45:22.660
 Well we see

00:45:22.660 --> 00:45:23.300
 the answer

00:45:23.300 --> 00:45:24.560
 then is given.

00:45:24.940 --> 00:45:25.380
 It's the second

00:45:25.380 --> 00:45:25.920
 thing we see

00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:26.640
 the question

00:45:26.640 --> 00:45:27.920
 answered in

00:45:27.920 --> 00:45:28.680
 verse 29.

00:45:28.860 --> 00:45:29.800
 Jesus answered

00:45:29.800 --> 00:45:30.580
 the most

00:45:30.580 --> 00:45:31.580
 important is

00:45:31.580 --> 00:45:32.600
 hear O Israel

00:45:32.600 --> 00:45:33.400
 the Lord our

00:45:33.400 --> 00:45:34.160
 God the Lord

00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:35.420
 is one and

00:45:35.420 --> 00:45:35.719
 you shall

00:45:35.719 --> 00:45:36.239
 love the

00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:36.619
 Lord your

00:45:36.619 --> 00:45:37.099
 God with

00:45:37.099 --> 00:45:37.500
 all your

00:45:37.500 --> 00:45:38.500
 heart with

00:45:38.500 --> 00:45:38.899
 all your

00:45:38.899 --> 00:45:39.519
 soul with

00:45:39.519 --> 00:45:39.859
 all your

00:45:39.859 --> 00:45:40.379
 mind with

00:45:40.379 --> 00:45:40.779
 all your

00:45:40.779 --> 00:45:41.299
 strength.

00:45:41.399 --> 00:45:41.619
 And the

00:45:41.619 --> 00:45:42.219
 second is

00:45:42.219 --> 00:45:43.399
 this you

00:45:43.399 --> 00:45:43.779
 shall love

00:45:43.779 --> 00:45:44.299
 your neighbour

00:45:44.299 --> 00:45:46.599
 as yourself.

00:45:48.719 --> 00:45:49.259
 As well as

00:45:49.259 --> 00:45:49.599
 a good

00:45:49.599 --> 00:45:50.399
 question there

00:45:50.399 --> 00:45:50.940
 is a great

00:45:50.940 --> 00:45:51.500
 answer.

00:45:52.259 --> 00:45:52.539
 There is a

00:45:52.539 --> 00:45:52.980
 wonderful

00:45:52.980 --> 00:45:53.940
 answer given

00:45:53.940 --> 00:45:54.839
 and as is

00:45:54.839 --> 00:45:55.379
 often the

00:45:55.379 --> 00:45:55.960
 case with

00:45:55.960 --> 00:45:56.539
 Jesus he

00:45:56.539 --> 00:45:57.139
 doesn't bring

00:45:57.139 --> 00:45:57.779
 them something

00:45:57.779 --> 00:45:58.980
 new something

00:45:58.980 --> 00:45:59.239
 that they

00:45:59.239 --> 00:45:59.719
 might find

00:45:59.719 --> 00:46:00.379
 hard to

00:46:00.379 --> 00:46:01.239
 understand.

00:46:02.099 --> 00:46:02.559
 Instead he

00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:03.359
 reiterates

00:46:03.360 --> 00:46:04.059
 what's at

00:46:04.059 --> 00:46:04.579
 the heart

00:46:04.579 --> 00:46:04.900
 of the

00:46:04.900 --> 00:46:05.360
 gospel.

00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:06.720
 What's at

00:46:06.720 --> 00:46:07.099
 the heart

00:46:07.099 --> 00:46:07.380
 of what

00:46:07.380 --> 00:46:07.840
 they already

00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:08.820
 know from

00:46:08.820 --> 00:46:09.240
 the Old

00:46:09.240 --> 00:46:09.760
 Testament.

00:46:11.360 --> 00:46:11.900
 And what

00:46:11.900 --> 00:46:12.340
 he does

00:46:12.340 --> 00:46:12.940
 here is

00:46:12.940 --> 00:46:13.500
 bring them

00:46:13.500 --> 00:46:14.140
 right back

00:46:14.140 --> 00:46:14.480
 to the

00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:14.660
 very

00:46:14.660 --> 00:46:15.200
 teachings

00:46:15.200 --> 00:46:15.539
 that they

00:46:15.539 --> 00:46:15.860
 have

00:46:15.860 --> 00:46:16.579
 themselves.

00:46:17.519 --> 00:46:18.059
 In that

00:46:18.059 --> 00:46:19.220
 version 29

00:46:19.220 --> 00:46:19.559
 where it

00:46:19.559 --> 00:46:20.320
 says hear

00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:20.760
 O Israel

00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:21.340
 the Lord

00:46:21.340 --> 00:46:21.920
 our God

00:46:21.920 --> 00:46:22.900
 the Lord

00:46:22.900 --> 00:46:23.599
 is one.

00:46:24.300 --> 00:46:24.880
 That's a

00:46:24.880 --> 00:46:25.539
 prayer that

00:46:25.539 --> 00:46:26.019
 the Jews

00:46:26.019 --> 00:46:26.539
 had from

00:46:26.539 --> 00:46:26.920
 the Old

00:46:26.920 --> 00:46:27.460
 Testament

00:46:27.460 --> 00:46:27.980
 days.

00:46:28.460 --> 00:46:29.059
 Still have

00:46:29.059 --> 00:46:29.500
 to this

00:46:29.500 --> 00:46:29.760
 day.

00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:30.340
 It's called

00:46:30.340 --> 00:46:31.340
 the Shema.

00:46:31.340 --> 00:46:32.780
 And it's

00:46:32.780 --> 00:46:33.320
 a declaration

00:46:33.320 --> 00:46:34.140
 they make

00:46:34.140 --> 00:46:34.880
 every day

00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:35.519
 morning and

00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:35.880
 evening.

00:46:37.059 --> 00:46:37.880
 Those words

00:46:37.880 --> 00:46:38.400
 hear O

00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:38.900
 Israel the

00:46:38.900 --> 00:46:39.360
 Lord our

00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:39.840
 God the

00:46:39.840 --> 00:46:40.340
 Lord is

00:46:40.340 --> 00:46:40.660
 one.

00:46:41.460 --> 00:46:42.019
 It's a

00:46:42.019 --> 00:46:42.539
 declaration

00:46:42.539 --> 00:46:42.980
 there is

00:46:42.980 --> 00:46:43.660
 only one

00:46:43.660 --> 00:46:44.100
 God.

00:46:45.180 --> 00:46:45.500
 And it

00:46:45.500 --> 00:46:45.940
 goes right

00:46:45.940 --> 00:46:46.600
 back to

00:46:46.600 --> 00:46:47.600
 Deuteronomy

00:46:47.600 --> 00:46:48.900
 chapter 6

00:46:48.900 --> 00:46:49.559
 hear O

00:46:49.559 --> 00:46:50.180
 Israel the

00:46:50.180 --> 00:46:50.620
 Lord our

00:46:50.620 --> 00:46:51.440
 God the

00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:51.940
 Lord is

00:46:51.940 --> 00:46:52.360
 one.

00:46:52.860 --> 00:46:53.260
 Love the

00:46:53.260 --> 00:46:53.680
 Lord your

00:46:53.680 --> 00:46:54.180
 God with

00:46:54.180 --> 00:46:54.700
 all your

00:46:54.700 --> 00:46:55.760
 heart with

00:46:55.760 --> 00:46:56.240
 all your

00:46:56.240 --> 00:46:56.880
 soul with

00:46:56.880 --> 00:46:57.519
 all your

00:46:57.519 --> 00:46:58.220
 strength.

00:46:58.219 --> 00:46:59.839
 these

00:46:59.839 --> 00:47:00.419
 commandments

00:47:00.419 --> 00:47:00.779
 that I

00:47:00.779 --> 00:47:01.279
 give to

00:47:01.279 --> 00:47:01.839
 you today

00:47:01.839 --> 00:47:02.379
 are to

00:47:02.379 --> 00:47:02.819
 be upon

00:47:02.819 --> 00:47:03.079
 your

00:47:03.079 --> 00:47:03.359
 heart.

00:47:03.459 --> 00:47:03.679
 So he

00:47:03.679 --> 00:47:04.099
 takes them

00:47:04.099 --> 00:47:04.980
 right back

00:47:04.980 --> 00:47:06.079
 to the

00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:06.659
 scriptures of

00:47:06.659 --> 00:47:07.099
 the Old

00:47:07.099 --> 00:47:08.379
 Testament and

00:47:08.379 --> 00:47:08.839
 there it

00:47:08.839 --> 00:47:09.339
 is this

00:47:09.339 --> 00:47:10.419
 prayer that

00:47:10.419 --> 00:47:11.039
 they already

00:47:11.039 --> 00:47:11.500
 knew.

00:47:12.379 --> 00:47:12.779
 Hear O

00:47:12.779 --> 00:47:13.919
 Israel the

00:47:13.919 --> 00:47:14.519
 Lord your

00:47:14.519 --> 00:47:15.799
 God the

00:47:15.799 --> 00:47:17.019
 Lord is

00:47:17.019 --> 00:47:17.439
 one.

00:47:19.199 --> 00:47:19.759
 You see

00:47:19.759 --> 00:47:20.199
 in the

00:47:20.199 --> 00:47:20.859
 midst of

00:47:20.859 --> 00:47:21.939
 asking all

00:47:21.939 --> 00:47:22.779
 our questions

00:47:22.779 --> 00:47:23.559
 in life

00:47:23.559 --> 00:47:24.879
 what do I

00:47:24.879 --> 00:47:25.319
 need to

00:47:25.319 --> 00:47:25.639
 do?

00:47:26.019 --> 00:47:26.819
 Where do I

00:47:26.819 --> 00:47:27.319
 need to

00:47:27.319 --> 00:47:27.579
 go?

00:47:27.579 --> 00:47:28.219
 How can

00:47:28.219 --> 00:47:28.819
 I find

00:47:28.819 --> 00:47:29.960
 this hope

00:47:29.960 --> 00:47:30.900
 this salvation

00:47:30.900 --> 00:47:31.539
 that Jesus

00:47:31.539 --> 00:47:32.079
 offers?

00:47:32.619 --> 00:47:33.299
 It's in

00:47:33.299 --> 00:47:34.019
 his truth.

00:47:34.840 --> 00:47:35.239
 It's in

00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:35.819
 his word.

00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:36.679
 It is here

00:47:36.679 --> 00:47:38.119
 before us.

00:47:39.440 --> 00:47:39.819
 And what

00:47:39.819 --> 00:47:40.639
 Jesus does

00:47:40.639 --> 00:47:41.319
 is he sums

00:47:41.319 --> 00:47:42.019
 up for them

00:47:42.019 --> 00:47:43.299
 here this

00:47:43.299 --> 00:47:43.759
 command.

00:47:43.860 --> 00:47:44.099
 He says

00:47:44.099 --> 00:47:44.960
 basically come

00:47:44.960 --> 00:47:45.579
 back to

00:47:45.579 --> 00:47:47.039
 this because

00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:47.639
 this is the

00:47:47.639 --> 00:47:48.259
 heart of our

00:47:48.259 --> 00:47:48.940
 relationship

00:47:48.940 --> 00:47:49.779
 with God.

00:47:50.440 --> 00:47:51.159
 It's not

00:47:51.159 --> 00:47:51.659
 about the

00:47:51.659 --> 00:47:52.380
 weighing down

00:47:52.380 --> 00:47:53.139
 of law.

00:47:54.139 --> 00:47:54.500
 It's not

00:47:54.500 --> 00:47:55.239
 about the

00:47:55.239 --> 00:47:55.739
 weighing down

00:47:55.739 --> 00:47:56.319
 of trying to

00:47:56.319 --> 00:47:56.819
 keep the

00:47:56.819 --> 00:47:57.559
 hundreds of

00:47:57.559 --> 00:47:58.679
 laws that

00:47:58.679 --> 00:47:59.279
 are before

00:47:59.279 --> 00:47:59.639
 you in

00:47:59.639 --> 00:48:00.079
 order to

00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:00.679
 be right

00:48:00.679 --> 00:48:01.340
 with God.

00:48:01.420 --> 00:48:01.719
 That's

00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:02.699
 not what

00:48:02.699 --> 00:48:03.279
 it's about.

00:48:05.139 --> 00:48:05.799
 It's not

00:48:05.799 --> 00:48:07.079
 about sacrifices.

00:48:07.579 --> 00:48:08.139
 It's not

00:48:08.139 --> 00:48:09.360
 about rewards.

00:48:09.639 --> 00:48:09.960
 It's not

00:48:09.960 --> 00:48:10.279
 about any

00:48:10.279 --> 00:48:10.579
 of these

00:48:10.579 --> 00:48:10.860
 things.

00:48:10.940 --> 00:48:11.259
 It's about

00:48:11.259 --> 00:48:12.299
 love the

00:48:12.299 --> 00:48:12.940
 Lord your

00:48:12.940 --> 00:48:13.960
 God with

00:48:13.960 --> 00:48:14.500
 all your

00:48:14.500 --> 00:48:15.059
 heart.

00:48:17.119 --> 00:48:17.880
 And love

00:48:17.880 --> 00:48:18.500
 your neighbor

00:48:18.500 --> 00:48:20.420
 as yourself.

00:48:20.420 --> 00:48:20.619
 love.

00:48:22.519 --> 00:48:23.119
 You wonder

00:48:23.119 --> 00:48:23.820
 what impact

00:48:23.820 --> 00:48:24.519
 this had

00:48:24.519 --> 00:48:26.700
 on not

00:48:26.700 --> 00:48:27.000
 just on

00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:27.539
 the scribe

00:48:27.539 --> 00:48:27.800
 but on

00:48:27.800 --> 00:48:28.539
 those around.

00:48:29.480 --> 00:48:29.840
 The same

00:48:29.840 --> 00:48:30.440
 impact as

00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:31.019
 the word of

00:48:31.019 --> 00:48:31.539
 God so

00:48:31.539 --> 00:48:32.180
 often does.

00:48:32.340 --> 00:48:32.720
 Some would

00:48:32.720 --> 00:48:34.519
 listen and

00:48:34.519 --> 00:48:34.960
 some would

00:48:34.960 --> 00:48:35.340
 put it

00:48:35.340 --> 00:48:35.680
 away.

00:48:37.260 --> 00:48:38.000
 But what

00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:38.659
 Jesus is

00:48:38.659 --> 00:48:39.280
 saying to

00:48:39.280 --> 00:48:39.840
 him here

00:48:39.840 --> 00:48:41.139
 is love

00:48:41.139 --> 00:48:41.980
 is at the

00:48:41.980 --> 00:48:42.619
 heart of

00:48:42.619 --> 00:48:42.840
 it.

00:48:43.900 --> 00:48:44.860
 Love here

00:48:44.860 --> 00:48:45.660
 as you

00:48:45.660 --> 00:48:46.059
 see in

00:48:46.059 --> 00:48:46.360
 English

00:48:46.360 --> 00:48:46.820
 the word

00:48:46.820 --> 00:48:47.400
 love is

00:48:47.400 --> 00:48:47.960
 just one

00:48:47.960 --> 00:48:48.260
 word.

00:48:48.420 --> 00:48:48.960
 But when

00:48:48.960 --> 00:48:49.300
 you look

00:48:49.300 --> 00:48:49.539
 at it

00:48:49.539 --> 00:48:49.840
 in the

00:48:49.840 --> 00:48:50.519
 text

00:48:50.519 --> 00:48:51.099
 itself

00:48:51.099 --> 00:48:51.539
 in the

00:48:51.539 --> 00:48:52.160
 original

00:48:52.160 --> 00:48:52.700
 language

00:48:52.700 --> 00:48:53.340
 it's

00:48:53.340 --> 00:48:53.840
 agape

00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:54.240
 love

00:48:54.240 --> 00:48:54.519
 that we

00:48:54.519 --> 00:48:54.760
 have

00:48:54.760 --> 00:48:55.000
 here

00:48:55.000 --> 00:48:55.180
 which

00:48:55.180 --> 00:48:55.340
 is

00:48:55.340 --> 00:48:55.500
 a

00:48:55.500 --> 00:48:55.760
 love

00:48:55.760 --> 00:48:56.740
 associated

00:48:56.740 --> 00:48:57.000
 with

00:48:57.000 --> 00:48:57.440
 God

00:48:57.440 --> 00:48:58.000
 himself.

00:48:58.900 --> 00:48:59.380
 And this

00:48:59.380 --> 00:48:59.680
 is a

00:48:59.680 --> 00:49:00.079
 love that

00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:00.400
 he has

00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:00.920
 shown to

00:49:00.920 --> 00:49:01.280
 us

00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:02.000
 that is

00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:02.559
 behind

00:49:02.559 --> 00:49:03.120
 it all

00:49:03.120 --> 00:49:03.720
 because

00:49:03.720 --> 00:49:04.059
 we can

00:49:04.059 --> 00:49:04.240
 only

00:49:04.240 --> 00:49:04.780
 love

00:49:04.780 --> 00:49:05.300
 when we

00:49:05.300 --> 00:49:05.539
 see

00:49:05.539 --> 00:49:05.780
 he

00:49:05.780 --> 00:49:06.200
 first

00:49:06.200 --> 00:49:06.599
 loved

00:49:06.599 --> 00:49:07.120
 us.

00:49:08.599 --> 00:49:09.280
 And so

00:49:09.280 --> 00:49:09.519
 he's

00:49:09.519 --> 00:49:10.120
 telling us

00:49:10.120 --> 00:49:10.519
 that this

00:49:10.519 --> 00:49:10.980
 love is

00:49:10.980 --> 00:49:11.640
 a costly

00:49:11.640 --> 00:49:12.039
 love.

00:49:12.780 --> 00:49:13.480
 Just as

00:49:13.480 --> 00:49:14.059
 his love

00:49:14.059 --> 00:49:14.460
 has been

00:49:14.460 --> 00:49:15.500
 a sacrifice

00:49:15.500 --> 00:49:15.960
 that was

00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:16.420
 made.

00:49:17.300 --> 00:49:17.440
 So

00:49:17.440 --> 00:49:18.059
 our love

00:49:18.059 --> 00:49:18.340
 is to

00:49:18.340 --> 00:49:18.840
 have that

00:49:18.840 --> 00:49:19.539
 sacrifice

00:49:19.539 --> 00:49:20.260
 as well.

00:49:21.840 --> 00:49:22.400
 The

00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:22.900
 advice

00:49:22.900 --> 00:49:23.179
 the

00:49:23.179 --> 00:49:23.720
 commands

00:49:23.720 --> 00:49:23.980
 that

00:49:23.980 --> 00:49:24.760
 interfere

00:49:24.760 --> 00:49:25.139
 with

00:49:25.139 --> 00:49:25.340
 our

00:49:25.340 --> 00:49:26.119
 plans

00:49:26.119 --> 00:49:27.400
 that

00:49:27.400 --> 00:49:27.539
 is

00:49:27.539 --> 00:49:27.679
 the

00:49:27.679 --> 00:49:27.940
 ones

00:49:27.940 --> 00:49:28.079
 that

00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:28.179
 we

00:49:28.179 --> 00:49:28.280
 are

00:49:28.280 --> 00:49:28.420
 to

00:49:28.420 --> 00:49:28.780
 listen

00:49:28.780 --> 00:49:29.099
 to.

00:49:29.740 --> 00:49:29.820
 And

00:49:29.820 --> 00:49:30.159
 because

00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:30.360
 they

00:49:30.360 --> 00:49:30.860
 disrupt

00:49:30.860 --> 00:49:31.199
 our

00:49:31.199 --> 00:49:31.579
 plans

00:49:31.579 --> 00:49:31.720
 or

00:49:31.720 --> 00:49:32.260
 interfere

00:49:32.260 --> 00:49:32.519
 our

00:49:32.519 --> 00:49:32.860
 plans

00:49:32.860 --> 00:49:33.019
 it

00:49:33.019 --> 00:49:33.220
 means

00:49:33.220 --> 00:49:33.360
 there

00:49:33.360 --> 00:49:33.480
 are

00:49:33.480 --> 00:49:33.800
 things

00:49:33.800 --> 00:49:34.300
 we

00:49:34.300 --> 00:49:34.519
 have

00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:34.679
 to

00:49:34.679 --> 00:49:34.980
 leave

00:49:34.980 --> 00:49:35.579
 behind.

00:49:36.480 --> 00:49:37.000
 Attitudes

00:49:37.000 --> 00:49:37.220
 we

00:49:37.220 --> 00:49:37.420
 have

00:49:37.420 --> 00:49:37.579
 to

00:49:37.579 --> 00:49:38.300
 change.

00:49:39.800 --> 00:49:40.199
 Things

00:49:40.199 --> 00:49:40.320
 we

00:49:40.320 --> 00:49:40.440
 have

00:49:40.440 --> 00:49:40.539
 to

00:49:40.539 --> 00:49:40.679
 put

00:49:40.679 --> 00:49:41.019
 away

00:49:41.019 --> 00:49:41.220
 and

00:49:41.220 --> 00:49:41.460
 listen

00:49:41.460 --> 00:49:42.039
 instead

00:49:42.039 --> 00:49:42.579
 to

00:49:42.579 --> 00:49:42.760
 the

00:49:42.760 --> 00:49:43.079
 word

00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:43.300
 of

00:49:43.300 --> 00:49:43.760
 God.

00:49:44.460 --> 00:49:45.300
 So

00:49:45.300 --> 00:49:45.460
 you

00:49:45.460 --> 00:49:45.699
 have

00:49:45.699 --> 00:49:45.980

 of

00:50:39.019 --> 00:50:39.180
 you

00:50:39.180 --> 00:50:39.440
 think

00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:39.700
 your

00:50:39.700 --> 00:50:40.280
 heart

00:50:40.280 --> 00:50:40.519
 is

00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:40.840
 right

00:50:40.840 --> 00:50:41.260
 today

00:50:41.260 --> 00:50:41.560
 with

00:50:41.560 --> 00:50:41.960
 God

00:50:41.960 --> 00:50:42.960
 or

00:50:42.960 --> 00:50:43.100
 have

00:50:43.100 --> 00:50:43.260
 the

00:50:43.260 --> 00:50:43.740
 years

00:50:43.740 --> 00:50:44.019
 sort

00:50:44.019 --> 00:50:44.120
 of

00:50:44.120 --> 00:50:44.260
 put

00:50:44.260 --> 00:50:44.720
 layers

00:50:44.720 --> 00:50:44.960
 on

00:50:44.960 --> 00:50:45.300
 top

00:50:45.300 --> 00:50:45.400
 of

00:50:45.400 --> 00:50:45.519
 your

00:50:45.519 --> 00:50:45.800
 heart

00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:45.940
 where

00:50:45.940 --> 00:50:46.019
 you

00:50:46.019 --> 00:50:46.380
 think

00:50:46.380 --> 00:50:47.300
 but

00:50:47.300 --> 00:50:47.500
 I'm

00:50:47.500 --> 00:50:47.620
 a

00:50:47.620 --> 00:50:47.820
 good

00:50:47.820 --> 00:50:48.420
 person

00:50:48.420 --> 00:50:48.940
 I'm

00:50:48.940 --> 00:50:49.160
 doing

00:50:49.160 --> 00:50:49.620
 well

00:50:49.620 --> 00:50:49.640
!

00:50:49.640 --> 00:50:50.320
 things

00:50:50.320 --> 00:50:50.500
 are

00:50:50.500 --> 00:50:50.820
 going

00:50:50.820 --> 00:50:51.480
!

00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:52.940
 well

00:50:52.940 --> 00:50:53.099
 the

00:50:53.099 --> 00:50:53.400
 Lord

00:50:53.400 --> 00:50:53.619
 kind

00:50:53.619 --> 00:50:53.720
 of

00:50:53.720 --> 00:50:53.920
 just

00:50:53.920 --> 00:50:54.380
 strips

00:50:54.380 --> 00:50:54.800
 all

00:50:54.800 --> 00:50:55.099
 these

00:50:55.099 --> 00:50:55.480
 layers

00:50:55.480 --> 00:50:56.079
 back

00:50:56.079 --> 00:50:57.099
 think

00:50:57.099 --> 00:50:57.200
 of

00:50:57.200 --> 00:50:57.300
 it

00:50:57.300 --> 00:50:57.440
 in

00:50:57.440 --> 00:50:57.700
 this

00:50:57.700 --> 00:50:57.900
 way

00:50:57.900 --> 00:50:58.079
 you've

00:50:58.079 --> 00:50:58.200
 got

00:50:58.200 --> 00:50:58.340
 a

00:50:58.340 --> 00:50:58.539
 wooden

00:50:58.539 --> 00:50:59.059
 bench

00:50:59.059 --> 00:50:59.659
 in

00:50:59.659 --> 00:50:59.820
 the

00:50:59.820 --> 00:51:00.240
 garden

00:51:00.240 --> 00:51:01.220
 it's

00:51:01.220 --> 00:51:01.360
 been

00:51:01.360 --> 00:51:01.519
 there

00:51:01.519 --> 00:51:01.720
 maybe

00:51:01.720 --> 00:51:02.220
 20

00:51:02.220 --> 00:51:02.599
 years

00:51:02.599 --> 00:51:02.740
 and

00:51:02.740 --> 00:51:02.940
 every

00:51:02.940 --> 00:51:03.300
 year

00:51:03.300 --> 00:51:03.960
 you've

00:51:03.960 --> 00:51:04.280
 painted

00:51:04.280 --> 00:51:04.460
 it

00:51:04.460 --> 00:51:04.579
 with

00:51:04.579 --> 00:51:04.720
 a

00:51:04.720 --> 00:51:05.119
 gloss

00:51:05.119 --> 00:51:05.659
 paint

00:51:05.659 --> 00:51:06.659
 and

00:51:06.659 --> 00:51:06.840
 just

00:51:06.840 --> 00:51:07.099
 each

00:51:07.099 --> 00:51:07.340
 year

00:51:07.340 --> 00:51:07.500
 put

00:51:07.500 --> 00:51:07.619
 a

00:51:07.619 --> 00:51:07.800
 new

00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:08.260
 coat

00:51:08.260 --> 00:51:08.460
 on

00:51:08.460 --> 00:51:08.760
 top

00:51:08.760 --> 00:51:08.940
 and

00:51:08.940 --> 00:51:09.039
 you

00:51:09.039 --> 00:51:09.340
 think

00:51:09.340 --> 00:51:09.480
 to

00:51:09.480 --> 00:51:09.860
 yourself

00:51:09.860 --> 00:51:10.539
 this

00:51:10.539 --> 00:51:10.960
 bench

00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:11.119
 is

00:51:11.119 --> 00:51:11.440
 fine

00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:11.659
 this

00:51:11.659 --> 00:51:12.059
 bench

00:51:12.059 --> 00:51:12.240
 is

00:51:12.240 --> 00:51:12.500
 good

00:51:12.500 --> 00:51:12.700
 it's

00:51:12.700 --> 00:51:13.079
 lasted

00:51:13.079 --> 00:51:13.360
 for

00:51:13.360 --> 00:51:13.880
 years

00:51:13.880 --> 00:51:14.480
 but

00:51:14.480 --> 00:51:14.659
 you're

00:51:14.659 --> 00:51:14.800
 getting

00:51:14.800 --> 00:51:14.940
 to

00:51:14.940 --> 00:51:15.099
 the

00:51:15.099 --> 00:51:15.460
 stage

00:51:15.460 --> 00:51:15.679
 now

00:51:15.679 --> 00:51:15.839
 you're

00:51:15.839 --> 00:51:15.960
 thinking

00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:16.179
 well

00:51:16.179 --> 00:51:16.319
 it's

00:51:16.319 --> 00:51:16.699
 so

00:51:16.699 --> 00:51:16.940
 many

00:51:16.940 --> 00:51:17.539
 coats

00:51:17.539 --> 00:51:17.759
 of

00:51:17.759 --> 00:51:18.019
 paint

00:51:18.019 --> 00:51:18.219
 now

00:51:18.219 --> 00:51:18.319
 I

00:51:18.319 --> 00:51:18.519
 better

00:51:18.519 --> 00:51:19.000
 strip

00:51:19.000 --> 00:51:19.259
 it

00:51:19.259 --> 00:51:20.380
 right

00:51:20.380 --> 00:51:20.719
 back

00:51:20.719 --> 00:51:20.880
 to

00:51:20.880 --> 00:51:21.000
 the

00:51:21.000 --> 00:51:21.179
 wood

00:51:21.179 --> 00:51:21.319
 and

00:51:21.319 --> 00:51:21.480
 just

00:51:21.480 --> 00:51:21.819
 start

00:51:21.819 --> 00:51:21.940
 with

00:51:21.940 --> 00:51:22.099
 a

00:51:22.099 --> 00:51:22.460
 fresh

00:51:22.460 --> 00:51:22.900
 coat

00:51:22.900 --> 00:51:23.759
 again

00:51:23.759 --> 00:51:25.119
 but

00:51:25.119 --> 00:51:25.259
 to

00:51:25.259 --> 00:51:25.460
 your

00:51:25.460 --> 00:51:25.739
 horror

00:51:25.739 --> 00:51:25.960
 when

00:51:25.960 --> 00:51:26.079
 you

00:51:26.079 --> 00:51:26.400
 strip

00:51:26.400 --> 00:51:26.779
 back

00:51:26.779 --> 00:51:27.000
 all

00:51:27.000 --> 00:51:27.159
 the

00:51:27.159 --> 00:51:27.420
 layers

00:51:27.420 --> 00:51:27.639
 of

00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:27.920
 paint

00:51:27.920 --> 00:51:28.079
 you

00:51:28.079 --> 00:51:28.420
 find

00:51:28.420 --> 00:51:28.619
 the

00:51:28.619 --> 00:51:28.880
 wood

00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:29.639
 underneath

00:51:29.639 --> 00:51:29.880
 is

00:51:29.880 --> 00:51:30.279
 starting

00:51:30.279 --> 00:51:30.559
 to

00:51:30.559 --> 00:51:31.019
 rot

00:51:31.019 --> 00:51:32.719
 all

00:51:32.719 --> 00:51:32.819
 that's

00:51:32.819 --> 00:51:32.940
 been

00:51:32.940 --> 00:51:33.239
 holding

00:51:33.239 --> 00:51:33.380
 it

00:51:33.380 --> 00:51:33.739
 together

00:51:33.739 --> 00:51:33.980
 has

00:51:33.980 --> 00:51:34.139
 been

00:51:34.139 --> 00:51:34.319
 the

00:51:34.319 --> 00:51:34.799
 paint

00:51:34.799 --> 00:51:35.839
 all

00:51:35.839 --> 00:51:36.079
 these

00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:36.519
 layers

00:51:36.519 --> 00:51:36.799
 of

00:51:36.799 --> 00:51:37.079
 paint

00:51:37.079 --> 00:51:37.639
 they've

00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:37.900
 hidden

00:51:37.900 --> 00:51:38.179
 what's

00:51:38.179 --> 00:51:38.299
 at

00:51:38.299 --> 00:51:38.500
 the

00:51:38.500 --> 00:51:38.799
 core

00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:39.060
 of

00:51:39.060 --> 00:51:39.280
 it

00:51:39.280 --> 00:51:40.800
 and

00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:40.920
 so

00:51:40.920 --> 00:51:41.060
 you

00:51:41.060 --> 00:51:41.240
 need

00:51:41.240 --> 00:51:41.400
 to

00:51:41.400 --> 00:51:41.660
 take

00:51:41.660 --> 00:51:42.200
 action

00:51:42.200 --> 00:51:43.600
 well

00:51:43.600 --> 00:51:43.740
 in

00:51:43.740 --> 00:51:43.980
 many

00:51:43.980 --> 00:51:44.280
 ways

00:51:44.280 --> 00:51:44.600
 that's

00:51:44.600 --> 00:51:44.780
 what

00:51:44.780 --> 00:51:45.620
 the

00:51:45.620 --> 00:51:45.900
 word

00:51:45.900 --> 00:51:46.080
 of

00:51:46.080 --> 00:51:46.380
 God

00:51:46.380 --> 00:51:46.740
 does

00:51:46.740 --> 00:51:46.900
 with

00:51:46.900 --> 00:51:47.100
 our

00:51:47.100 --> 00:51:47.539
 hearts

00:51:47.539 --> 00:51:47.780
 as

00:51:47.780 --> 00:51:48.140
 well

00:51:48.140 --> 00:51:49.080
 you

00:51:49.080 --> 00:51:49.320
 think

00:51:49.320 --> 00:51:49.580
 I've

00:51:49.580 --> 00:51:49.700
 been

00:51:49.700 --> 00:51:50.019
 going

00:51:50.019 --> 00:51:50.280
 to

00:51:50.280 --> 00:51:50.700
 church

00:51:50.700 --> 00:51:50.860
 I've

00:51:50.860 --> 00:51:50.960
 been

00:51:50.960 --> 00:51:51.340
 saying

00:51:51.340 --> 00:51:51.580
 my

00:51:51.580 --> 00:51:51.860
 prayer

00:51:51.860 --> 00:51:52.019
 I've

00:51:52.019 --> 00:51:52.140
 been

00:51:52.140 --> 00:51:52.440
 reading

00:51:52.440 --> 00:51:52.940
 God's

00:51:52.940 --> 00:51:53.140
 word

00:51:53.140 --> 00:51:53.740
 all

00:51:53.740 --> 00:51:54.060
 these

00:51:54.060 --> 00:51:54.480
 layers

00:51:54.480 --> 00:51:54.700
 are

00:51:54.700 --> 00:51:55.039
 building

00:51:55.039 --> 00:51:55.240
 up

00:51:55.240 --> 00:51:55.360
 in

00:51:55.360 --> 00:51:55.500
 your

00:51:55.500 --> 00:51:55.800
 heart

00:51:55.800 --> 00:51:55.900
 and

00:51:55.900 --> 00:51:56.000
 you

00:51:56.000 --> 00:51:56.220
 think

00:51:56.220 --> 00:51:56.680
 everything's

00:51:56.680 --> 00:51:57.180
 fine

00:51:57.180 --> 00:51:58.980
 but

00:51:58.980 --> 00:51:59.420
 behind

00:51:59.420 --> 00:51:59.740
 all

00:51:59.740 --> 00:51:59.920
 that

00:51:59.920 --> 00:52:00.060
 when

00:52:00.060 --> 00:52:00.200
 you

00:52:00.200 --> 00:52:00.539
 strip

00:52:00.539 --> 00:52:00.960
 back

00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:01.140
 is

00:52:01.140 --> 00:52:01.380
 the

00:52:01.380 --> 00:52:01.800
 core

00:52:01.800 --> 00:52:02.400
 and

00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:02.560
 the
