00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:17.000
 Well, the first important thing that I will say is open your Bibles. Turn in your Bibles to Luke chapter 23.

00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:17.000


00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:58.620
 Let's pray.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:06.879
 Our Father, this morning our prayers are instructed by Scripture.

00:01:07.819 --> 00:01:13.760
 And for one, I'm reminded of the text in Psalm 119 where the psalmist prayed,

00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:18.260
 Open thou mine eyes that I might behold wondrous truths of thy law.

00:01:18.260 --> 00:01:30.180
 And apart from your working to give us understanding, we will leave here unchanged, indifferent,

00:01:30.180 --> 00:01:37.960
 no more drawn to the glory of Christ than we were before.

00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:47.679
 And so we are thankful for the instruction of Scripture that reminds us to beg for those things that are appropriate and honoring to Christ.

00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:53.060
 We are also reminded of the words of Zechariah where he said,

00:01:53.060 --> 00:01:57.920
 Not by might nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord.

00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:13.879
 And we are dependent upon the Spirit of God making your word clear, persuasive, encouraging, convicting for the glory of Christ.

00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:17.340
 We ask in Jesus' name. Amen.

00:02:17.340 --> 00:02:17.479
 Amen.

00:02:18.419 --> 00:02:21.099
 So allow me to do something just a little different here.

00:02:21.359 --> 00:02:22.139
 The second service.

00:02:22.259 --> 00:02:25.659
 I'm going to ask whoever's running the slides, would you just not do them?

00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:27.840
 Because I'm not used to this.

00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:28.180
 Okay.

00:02:28.299 --> 00:02:29.379
 So bear with me.

00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:31.019
 Just follow me.

00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:31.680
 How's that?

00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:37.480
 And don't look for little prompts on the screen because they'll throw you off and they'll probably throw me off.

00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:41.980
 And we'll all wonder what happened on the way to Gethsemane.

00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.939
 So let me start by saying this.

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:52.719
 Earlier as I was sitting here on the front, which is my place, a little girl asked me,

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:53.500
 Are you preaching?

00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:54.640
 I thought, how is she?

00:02:54.740 --> 00:02:57.400
 Well, it's this, you know, the rig that gives me away.

00:02:58.140 --> 00:02:59.920
 And I said, Yes, I am.

00:02:59.919 --> 00:03:03.299
 I said, Will you pray for me?

00:03:03.799 --> 00:03:05.879
 She got this little quizzical look on her face.

00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:10.659
 And I said, Did you know that you're supposed to pray when the pastor preaches?

00:03:11.779 --> 00:03:15.439
 And with a little innocent face, she said, No, I didn't.

00:03:16.279 --> 00:03:18.439
 I said, Well, the Bible says to do it.

00:03:19.359 --> 00:03:25.699
 And how many of you know that praying is part of your obligation while someone is preaching the word of God?

00:03:25.699 --> 00:03:31.299
 Wave your hand just kind of like this so I know you don't need fresh instruction.

00:03:31.419 --> 00:03:31.819
 Go ahead.

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:41.439
 The scriptures are explicit that you have an obligation to pray for the preaching of the word of God.

00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:48.079
 Now, when a pastor says something like that, there's a little follow-up that should always happen.

00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:48.840
 Do you know what it is?

00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:50.599
 Where's that in the Bible?

00:03:51.780 --> 00:03:52.759
 Shouldn't that be the thought?

00:03:53.419 --> 00:03:54.800
 Where do you find that?

00:03:55.859 --> 00:03:57.900
 And that Tim Kenoyer really has no authority,

00:03:58.900 --> 00:04:02.139
 nothing of significance to say apart from Scripture.

00:04:02.139 --> 00:04:05.099
 2 Thessalonians 3, verse 1 and 2.

00:04:05.179 --> 00:04:09.819
 Pray that the word of God would have free course and bear fruit among you.

00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:15.519
 And if I'm redundant and repetitious about one thing in particular,

00:04:16.039 --> 00:04:17.979
 apart from believing the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:19.560
 it ought to be pray when a man's preaching.

00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:24.279
 And I will not be put out, if you think it's necessary,

00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:27.300
 while I am preaching, to go ahead and say out loud,

00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:28.240
 Lord, help him.

00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:29.339
 It's not going to bother me.

00:04:29.339 --> 00:04:33.039
 I say it when I'm preaching.

00:04:35.359 --> 00:04:38.639
 Because apart from the enabling of the Spirit of God,

00:04:39.659 --> 00:04:44.339
 the preaching of the word of God is not made effective,

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:49.879
 either in the hearts of believers or in the lives of unbelievers.

00:04:51.179 --> 00:04:53.239
 So, with that as an introduction,

00:04:53.419 --> 00:04:57.359
 let me say that it will also be my privilege, Lord willing,

00:04:57.639 --> 00:04:58.859
 and the creek doesn't rise,

00:04:59.339 --> 00:05:01.199
 that I preached on May 18th.

00:05:01.599 --> 00:05:04.959
 And I'm going to tell you ahead of time what I'm going to preach that week

00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:11.779
 so that you can appreciate this morning the organic unity of Scripture.

00:05:11.939 --> 00:05:14.739
 What I mean by that is how the Bible fits together.

00:05:14.740 --> 00:05:20.740
 And what we are going to be looking at this morning has bearing

00:05:20.740 --> 00:05:24.939
 on the central theme of the Scriptures,

00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:27.639
 which, by the way, is Jesus.

00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:40.360
 The first passage that became significant in my life was passages that convicted Tim Kenoyer

00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:45.459
 of the darkness of his soul and his absolute depravity.

00:05:45.459 --> 00:05:53.919
 And I remember the terrible burden of realizing that I was a sinner that stood justly condemned before a holy God.

00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:56.259
 And I was broken by that.

00:05:56.259 --> 00:06:02.719
 The second passage that became very significant to me was in Romans,

00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:04.719
 several different texts that say,

00:06:04.939 --> 00:06:06.180
 believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:06:06.300 --> 00:06:07.659
 Well, that's not the Romans passage,

00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:08.659
 but it says,

00:06:08.779 --> 00:06:10.920
 whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

00:06:11.039 --> 00:06:11.819
 Romans 10, 11.

00:06:11.819 --> 00:06:19.399
 And I remember crying out and finding the blessing and the relief of salvation through the Lord Jesus alone.

00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:22.500
 Later on in my life,

00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:27.779
 the Lord used 1 Peter 1, verse 8 in particular

00:06:27.779 --> 00:06:34.620
 to really change some of the trajectory of my life.

00:06:35.740 --> 00:06:37.180
 Some of you may know it by heart.

00:06:38.180 --> 00:06:40.360
 Whom having not seen, we love.

00:06:41.819 --> 00:06:45.060
 Though now we see him not yet believing,

00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.959
 we are filled with joy, inexpressible, and full of glory.

00:06:51.500 --> 00:06:53.139
 And that verse got a hold of me.

00:06:54.620 --> 00:06:57.259
 Because I realized that while I didn't want to admit it,

00:06:57.300 --> 00:07:00.199
 more often than not, I was like that nasty little queen,

00:07:00.339 --> 00:07:01.779
 you know, mirror, mirror on the wall,

00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:03.759
 who's the fairest of them all?

00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.779
 Now, I know none of you think that way.

00:07:06.779 --> 00:07:12.139
 But you know when other people are talking about what's a blessing to them,

00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:13.039
 you're thinking you're it?

00:07:16.539 --> 00:07:18.639
 Or when people aren't thinking about you,

00:07:18.719 --> 00:07:20.000
 you're a little put out, right?

00:07:20.239 --> 00:07:20.379
 Huh?

00:07:20.379 --> 00:07:25.040
 And that verse began convicting Tim Knoyer

00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:27.620
 that he didn't love Jesus like he should.

00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:32.659
 And that began a journey.

00:07:32.660 --> 00:07:40.540
 That will end up in eternity.

00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:44.280
 And I will be satisfied

00:07:44.280 --> 00:07:47.740
 when I see him as he is,

00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:50.740
 and I shall be like him.

00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:51.879
 Isn't that good?

00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:55.219
 So how does that relate to today?

00:07:56.379 --> 00:07:56.779
 Well,

00:07:57.459 --> 00:08:00.279
 our pastors have been working their way

00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:03.079
 through the last portion of Luke,

00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:07.860
 and one sermon after another

00:08:07.860 --> 00:08:09.620
 has just reminded us

00:08:09.620 --> 00:08:12.379
 of the beauty and the glory of Jesus.

00:08:12.500 --> 00:08:13.000
 Isn't that right?

00:08:14.300 --> 00:08:16.159
 I mean, I remember Pastor Andrew

00:08:16.159 --> 00:08:19.139
 preaching about the love of Christ for Judas.

00:08:19.139 --> 00:08:19.180
 Judas.

00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:20.680
 It's like,

00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.039
 you're kidding me?

00:08:23.060 --> 00:08:23.479
 And I just,

00:08:23.779 --> 00:08:25.079
 that's my Jesus.

00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:25.839
 And you know,

00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:27.360
 if he can love Judas,

00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:29.779
 Tim's within his range.

00:08:31.259 --> 00:08:33.000
 And then the other week,

00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:35.159
 Pastor David was talking about

00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:36.580
 Jesus praying in the garden,

00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:38.939
 and he was talking about the burden

00:08:38.939 --> 00:08:40.960
 of what it was to go to the cross,

00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:42.779
 and he was willing to do that.

00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:44.840
 Nevertheless, not my will,

00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:47.120
 but yours, right?

00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:49.500
 That's my Jesus.

00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:52.220
 And last week,

00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:52.960
 Pastor Andrew,

00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:53.759
 by the way,

00:08:54.019 --> 00:08:54.679
 how many of you are praying

00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:55.399
 for Pastor Andrew

00:08:55.399 --> 00:08:56.240
 on a regular basis

00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:56.799
 before he goes,

00:08:57.120 --> 00:08:57.720
 raise your hands.

00:08:57.879 --> 00:08:58.740
 Everybody get your hand up.

00:08:58.759 --> 00:08:59.460
 Just out of practice.

00:08:59.560 --> 00:08:59.820
 Go ahead.

00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:01.419
 Look at me.

00:09:02.379 --> 00:09:04.419
 Pray for your pastors,

00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:04.860
 right?

00:09:05.100 --> 00:09:05.320
 Okay?

00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:08.379
 But last week,

00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:09.560
 come back to the subject.

00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:13.639
 Pastor Andrew was talking about

00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:15.860
 Jesus and his love for Peter.

00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:21.460
 how broken Peter must have felt

00:09:21.460 --> 00:09:22.879
 when he denied the Lord Jesus.

00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:27.299
 And Jesus loved him anyway.

00:09:28.940 --> 00:09:31.220
 Never changed his mind about Peter.

00:09:32.840 --> 00:09:35.700
 And if Jesus won't change his mind about Peter,

00:09:35.820 --> 00:09:37.379
 he won't change his mind about Tim.

00:09:37.379 --> 00:09:42.159
 And so here we are this morning

00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:43.740
 in another portion

00:09:43.740 --> 00:09:45.639
 where the takeaway

00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:47.379
 that I want you to take with you

00:09:47.379 --> 00:09:48.620
 when you leave this morning

00:09:48.620 --> 00:09:49.139
 is that,

00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:50.059
 wow,

00:09:50.419 --> 00:09:51.960
 that's my Savior.

00:09:52.779 --> 00:09:54.659
 And I have every reason

00:09:54.659 --> 00:09:55.600
 to love him

00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:57.960
 because he is so unbelievable

00:09:57.960 --> 00:09:59.840
 in his love

00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:00.840
 and his grace.

00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:06.759
 I want us to look in

00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:08.259
 three simple steps.

00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:08.920
 Number one,

00:10:09.019 --> 00:10:10.139
 what do we see in the text?

00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:12.259
 And we're not going to spend

00:10:12.259 --> 00:10:13.100
 a lot of time there

00:10:13.100 --> 00:10:15.280
 because I think the text

00:10:15.280 --> 00:10:16.480
 is fairly well known

00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:17.780
 and while there are

00:10:17.780 --> 00:10:18.820
 some important pieces

00:10:18.820 --> 00:10:20.560
 to draw from it,

00:10:20.680 --> 00:10:21.399
 I think the

00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:22.720
 overarching

00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:24.399
 question

00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:25.240
 is going to be

00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:26.139
 why did Jesus

00:10:26.139 --> 00:10:27.200
 do what he did?

00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:30.000
 namely in being quiet

00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:30.800
 in the face

00:10:30.800 --> 00:10:32.759
 of false accusations.

00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:35.120
 Then the last thing

00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:35.879
 that we're going to look at

00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:36.060
 is

00:10:36.060 --> 00:10:37.620
 how does this fit

00:10:37.620 --> 00:10:39.780
 into my life?

00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:41.900
 One of the characteristics

00:10:41.900 --> 00:10:43.320
 of Bible preaching

00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:44.560
 is that it's not just

00:10:44.560 --> 00:10:45.280
 an explanation

00:10:45.280 --> 00:10:47.420
 of the text itself

00:10:47.420 --> 00:10:49.620
 but it is a spirit-enabled

00:10:49.620 --> 00:10:50.960
 application of

00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:53.200
 how does that fit

00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:54.440
 my life

00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:55.960
 and how should I live

00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:56.960
 because of Jesus?

00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:59.379
 Well, let's look

00:10:59.379 --> 00:11:00.320
 first of all at the text

00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:01.220
 and just a reminder

00:11:01.220 --> 00:11:01.840
 to you here

00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:03.780
 that where we are

00:11:03.780 --> 00:11:05.040
 in chapter 23

00:11:05.040 --> 00:11:06.080
 is we are

00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:07.740
 after chapter 22

00:11:07.740 --> 00:11:08.879
 and in chapter 22

00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:10.220
 Jesus had been

00:11:10.220 --> 00:11:11.400
 before the Sanhedrin,

00:11:11.540 --> 00:11:12.740
 the high court

00:11:12.740 --> 00:11:13.820
 of the nation of Israel

00:11:13.820 --> 00:11:15.600
 and they had brought him in

00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:16.340
 and their intention

00:11:16.340 --> 00:11:18.140
 was to accuse him

00:11:18.140 --> 00:11:20.020
 and to put him to death

00:11:20.020 --> 00:11:22.160
 and their accusations

00:11:22.160 --> 00:11:23.879
 across the board

00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:25.040
 were all false.

00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:26.860
 Every one of them.

00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:29.259
 They lie about this,

00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:30.160
 they lie about that,

00:11:30.220 --> 00:11:31.240
 they lie about the other thing

00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.140
 and they couldn't even get

00:11:33.140 --> 00:11:35.220
 their lies to fit

00:11:35.220 --> 00:11:37.100
 and I've thought about that.

00:11:37.140 --> 00:11:37.640
 That must have been

00:11:37.640 --> 00:11:38.879
 profoundly frustrating

00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:41.720
 for the individuals

00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:42.379
 who are bringing

00:11:42.379 --> 00:11:43.820
 the accusations of Jesus

00:11:43.820 --> 00:11:44.300
 to get,

00:11:44.660 --> 00:11:44.800
 you know,

00:11:44.920 --> 00:11:46.020
 hey, would you mind

00:11:46.020 --> 00:11:47.160
 telling a lie about Jesus

00:11:47.160 --> 00:11:48.140
 and that the next guy

00:11:48.140 --> 00:11:49.660
 couldn't pull off the lie

00:11:49.660 --> 00:11:50.259
 to make it fit

00:11:50.259 --> 00:11:51.020
 with the previous one?

00:11:51.019 --> 00:11:51.720
 It was a mess

00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:54.179
 and he was quiet.

00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:58.179
 One false accusation

00:11:58.179 --> 00:11:59.100
 after another,

00:12:00.259 --> 00:12:00.980
 he was quiet.

00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:03.460
 I had the privilege

00:12:03.460 --> 00:12:04.840
 of raising four children

00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:06.439
 and one of the things

00:12:06.439 --> 00:12:07.559
 I learned about children,

00:12:07.779 --> 00:12:08.559
 maybe my mind

00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:09.019
 were different,

00:12:09.139 --> 00:12:11.439
 but in our children's case,

00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:13.019
 sometimes things would happen

00:12:13.019 --> 00:12:13.559
 in the basement.

00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:14.439
 Do you understand

00:12:14.439 --> 00:12:14.879
 what I'm saying?

00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:16.820
 things would happen

00:12:16.820 --> 00:12:17.379
 in the basement

00:12:17.379 --> 00:12:19.259
 and more often than not

00:12:19.259 --> 00:12:20.340
 it happened with my boys,

00:12:20.539 --> 00:12:21.600
 not as much as my girls,

00:12:21.740 --> 00:12:21.899
 but my,

00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:23.799
 and I'd hear something

00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:24.840
 going on down there

00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:25.939
 and then suddenly

00:12:25.939 --> 00:12:27.059
 I'd hear running,

00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:28.139
 coming up the steps

00:12:28.139 --> 00:12:30.419
 and sometimes I thought

00:12:30.419 --> 00:12:30.939
 to myself,

00:12:31.059 --> 00:12:32.039
 the first person

00:12:32.039 --> 00:12:33.419
 is probably guilty.

00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:37.500
 But one of the things

00:12:37.500 --> 00:12:38.600
 I noticed is that

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:40.139
 when my boys came up

00:12:40.139 --> 00:12:41.139
 to deliver a report,

00:12:41.139 --> 00:12:45.259
 they were always innocent

00:12:45.259 --> 00:12:47.960
 and they were ready

00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:49.480
 to declare their innocence

00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:51.399
 with all sincerity

00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:52.199
 and passion

00:12:52.199 --> 00:12:53.080
 just befitting

00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:54.500
 of the moment.

00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:54.720
 You know,

00:12:54.740 --> 00:12:55.019
 it's like,

00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:55.360
 yeah,

00:12:55.659 --> 00:12:58.299
 innocent as,

00:12:58.419 --> 00:12:58.639
 you know,

00:12:58.679 --> 00:12:59.539
 wind-driven snow

00:12:59.539 --> 00:13:01.559
 and it's normal

00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:02.600
 and so here

00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:03.799
 we kind of find Jesus

00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:04.799
 with all these accusations.

00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:06.059
 He didn't say a word.

00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:08.559
 Didn't say a word.

00:13:10.319 --> 00:13:10.840
 Finally,

00:13:11.139 --> 00:13:12.580
 you know the scene.

00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:14.220
 The high priest says,

00:13:14.340 --> 00:13:14.960
 are you?

00:13:15.980 --> 00:13:16.699
 And he says,

00:13:16.740 --> 00:13:16.899
 yeah,

00:13:16.939 --> 00:13:17.720
 you got that one

00:13:17.720 --> 00:13:18.399
 and he says,

00:13:18.460 --> 00:13:18.919
 by the way,

00:13:18.980 --> 00:13:20.100
 the day is coming when?

00:13:20.659 --> 00:13:21.639
 And he makes it clear

00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:22.240
 that judgment

00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:23.120
 is going to happen

00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:24.259
 and there's no question.

00:13:24.379 --> 00:13:24.519
 Well,

00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:25.580
 we've heard what you said.

00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:27.600
 You're guilty of blasphemy.

00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:28.360
 You deserve death.

00:13:28.580 --> 00:13:29.460
 They decide

00:13:29.460 --> 00:13:31.019
 we can't put him to death

00:13:31.019 --> 00:13:31.819
 formally,

00:13:32.019 --> 00:13:32.340
 legally

00:13:32.340 --> 00:13:34.460
 so we have to march him over

00:13:34.460 --> 00:13:37.039
 to the Roman authorities.

00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:38.539
 That's Pilate.

00:13:38.539 --> 00:13:41.159
 That's where we pick up

00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:42.219
 in the passage

00:13:42.219 --> 00:13:43.179
 that we're looking at

00:13:43.179 --> 00:13:43.959
 this week

00:13:43.959 --> 00:13:44.799
 and we find that

00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:46.659
 they come in the morning

00:13:46.659 --> 00:13:47.579
 before Pilate

00:13:47.579 --> 00:13:50.019
 and they come to accuse him

00:13:50.019 --> 00:13:51.339
 and interestingly enough,

00:13:51.399 --> 00:13:52.759
 and I want you to notice this anyway,

00:13:53.199 --> 00:13:53.959
 in verse 2,

00:13:54.259 --> 00:13:56.000
 they begin to accuse him saying,

00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:57.699
 we found this man

00:13:57.699 --> 00:13:59.419
 misleading our nation

00:13:59.419 --> 00:14:02.399
 and forbidding us

00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:03.740
 to give tribute

00:14:03.740 --> 00:14:05.059
 to Caesar.

00:14:05.059 --> 00:14:08.539
 completely different accusation

00:14:08.539 --> 00:14:10.119
 than what had gone on

00:14:10.119 --> 00:14:10.759
 all night

00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:14.299
 in that trumped up judgment

00:14:14.299 --> 00:14:15.259
 against Jesus,

00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:17.119
 completely inappropriate

00:14:17.119 --> 00:14:18.019
 and contrary

00:14:18.019 --> 00:14:19.739
 to a Jewish law.

00:14:20.599 --> 00:14:21.579
 So here they come

00:14:21.579 --> 00:14:22.699
 to the civil authorities

00:14:22.699 --> 00:14:24.139
 and instead of saying,

00:14:24.319 --> 00:14:24.459
 you know,

00:14:24.539 --> 00:14:25.399
 we've got a problem

00:14:25.399 --> 00:14:26.759
 with a theological issue

00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:28.459
 in the fact that

00:14:28.459 --> 00:14:29.659
 this man is saying

00:14:29.659 --> 00:14:31.139
 that he is God's son,

00:14:31.619 --> 00:14:32.019
 no,

00:14:32.319 --> 00:14:33.359
 we're concerned about

00:14:33.359 --> 00:14:34.539
 something completely different.

00:14:34.539 --> 00:14:36.099
 This is a political matter

00:14:36.099 --> 00:14:37.299
 and we're very concerned.

00:14:38.099 --> 00:14:39.339
 What was their accusation?

00:14:40.120 --> 00:14:42.360
 You're misleading the nation

00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:44.179
 and that word means

00:14:44.179 --> 00:14:45.000
 to kind of twist

00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:46.500
 and take the people

00:14:46.500 --> 00:14:48.099
 away from where

00:14:48.099 --> 00:14:49.519
 they should be.

00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:51.699
 Now we get to the second part

00:14:51.699 --> 00:14:52.179
 and that's really

00:14:52.179 --> 00:14:53.159
 the interesting part

00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:54.699
 and part in fact

00:14:54.699 --> 00:14:56.079
 because here they are

00:14:56.079 --> 00:14:57.120
 accusing Jesus

00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:59.759
 of something completely contrary

00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:00.959
 to what his public teaching

00:15:00.959 --> 00:15:01.399
 had been.

00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:04.000
 they said

00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:04.659
 that Jesus

00:15:04.659 --> 00:15:06.100
 was encouraging

00:15:06.100 --> 00:15:07.139
 the nation

00:15:07.139 --> 00:15:08.919
 not to pay

00:15:08.919 --> 00:15:09.779
 their taxes.

00:15:12.779 --> 00:15:13.819
 I'm not going to ask

00:15:13.819 --> 00:15:14.159
 if any of you

00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:15.220
 have ever been audited

00:15:15.220 --> 00:15:17.100
 because I would expect

00:15:17.100 --> 00:15:17.980
 you not to wave at me

00:15:17.980 --> 00:15:18.500
 if you have.

00:15:19.480 --> 00:15:21.319
 But if you think

00:15:21.319 --> 00:15:21.819
 that an audit

00:15:21.819 --> 00:15:22.500
 by the IRS

00:15:22.500 --> 00:15:23.079
 is something

00:15:23.079 --> 00:15:23.759
 that you prefer

00:15:23.759 --> 00:15:24.439
 not going through,

00:15:24.539 --> 00:15:25.240
 I assure you

00:15:25.240 --> 00:15:26.840
 that not paying taxes

00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:29.300
 to the Roman authorities

00:15:29.300 --> 00:15:30.960
 was far more severe

00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:31.879
 and the consequences

00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:33.879
 more destructive

00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:34.920
 to your well-being

00:15:34.920 --> 00:15:36.120
 than what we go through here.

00:15:37.660 --> 00:15:38.879
 And the Romans

00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:40.960
 were very, very interested

00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:41.980
 in seeing that

00:15:41.980 --> 00:15:44.180
 all of their taxes

00:15:44.180 --> 00:15:45.800
 were gathered.

00:15:47.899 --> 00:15:49.680
 And they brought a charge

00:15:49.680 --> 00:15:50.940
 that should have

00:15:50.940 --> 00:15:53.220
 made Pilate's hair

00:15:53.220 --> 00:15:54.100
 stand on end.

00:15:54.100 --> 00:15:56.580
 It's interesting actually

00:15:56.580 --> 00:15:57.800
 when you read

00:15:57.800 --> 00:15:58.500
 the portion

00:15:58.500 --> 00:15:59.440
 of scripture here

00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:02.259
 that Pilate

00:16:02.259 --> 00:16:03.580
 was really not

00:16:03.580 --> 00:16:04.540
 put out by that.

00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:06.300
 Now there's a reason

00:16:06.300 --> 00:16:07.540
 because Pilate

00:16:07.540 --> 00:16:09.120
 was not ignorant

00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:10.519
 of what was going on

00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:12.159
 in his jurisdiction

00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:14.360
 and he fundamentally

00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:15.379
 knew that

00:16:15.379 --> 00:16:16.379
 the problem

00:16:16.379 --> 00:16:17.759
 that the Jewish leadership

00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:18.879
 had with Jesus

00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:20.560
 had nothing to do

00:16:20.560 --> 00:16:21.600
 with Rome

00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:22.540
 or taxation.

00:16:22.539 --> 00:16:23.579
 It had to do

00:16:23.579 --> 00:16:24.539
 with their

00:16:24.539 --> 00:16:25.959
 internal

00:16:25.959 --> 00:16:27.240
 dispute

00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:28.179
 with Jesus

00:16:28.179 --> 00:16:29.839
 and what he was teaching.

00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:32.980
 But they come

00:16:32.980 --> 00:16:33.740
 and they make

00:16:33.740 --> 00:16:34.439
 these charges

00:16:34.439 --> 00:16:35.539
 and once again

00:16:35.539 --> 00:16:36.839
 I want you to recognize

00:16:36.839 --> 00:16:38.319
 that in the face

00:16:38.319 --> 00:16:39.819
 of these false allegations

00:16:39.819 --> 00:16:41.319
 for all practical purposes

00:16:41.319 --> 00:16:42.279
 Jesus is quiet.

00:16:43.379 --> 00:16:44.639
 He doesn't say anything.

00:16:45.839 --> 00:16:46.559
 And you stop

00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:47.339
 and recognize

00:16:47.339 --> 00:16:49.000
 that apart

00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:51.199
 from the earlier response

00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:51.940
 that he had given

00:16:51.940 --> 00:16:53.060
 to the high priest

00:16:53.060 --> 00:16:55.060
 regarding his deity

00:16:55.060 --> 00:16:57.060
 fundamentally

00:16:57.060 --> 00:16:59.120
 his communications

00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:00.680
 with Pilate

00:17:00.680 --> 00:17:02.060
 were quite similar.

00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:04.380
 And it was striking

00:17:04.380 --> 00:17:05.940
 to Pilate

00:17:05.940 --> 00:17:07.160
 that in the face

00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:08.100
 of these accusations

00:17:08.100 --> 00:17:09.600
 Jesus was quiet.

00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:11.959
 in particular

00:17:11.959 --> 00:17:12.859
 because Pilate

00:17:12.859 --> 00:17:13.279
 knew

00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:14.799
 that he was

00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:15.619
 in the position

00:17:15.619 --> 00:17:16.759
 at least he assumed

00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:17.779
 that he was in the position

00:17:17.779 --> 00:17:19.159
 of putting Jesus

00:17:19.159 --> 00:17:19.899
 to death.

00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:22.579
 What's the deal

00:17:22.579 --> 00:17:23.039
 with you?

00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:24.980
 I'm in the situation

00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:26.959
 that should I decide

00:17:26.959 --> 00:17:28.279
 you can be executed

00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.279
 or should I decide

00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:30.980
 you could be

00:17:30.980 --> 00:17:31.859
 forgiven

00:17:31.859 --> 00:17:32.859
 and excused.

00:17:34.919 --> 00:17:35.819
 In the text

00:17:35.819 --> 00:17:36.659
 it is interesting

00:17:36.659 --> 00:17:37.579
 that in the face

00:17:37.579 --> 00:17:38.819
 of the false accusations

00:17:38.819 --> 00:17:39.480
 that Jesus

00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:41.439
 was subjected to

00:17:41.439 --> 00:17:42.919
 that eventually

00:17:42.919 --> 00:17:44.319
 as we read there

00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:46.139
 in the passage

00:17:46.139 --> 00:17:49.279
 Pilate says this

00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:51.319
 I find no guilt

00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:52.579
 in this man.

00:17:52.879 --> 00:17:53.740
 I want you to understand

00:17:53.740 --> 00:17:54.799
 that in making

00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:55.799
 that statement

00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:57.399
 Pilate was making

00:17:57.399 --> 00:17:58.819
 a judgment

00:17:58.819 --> 00:18:01.699
 that had standing.

00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:03.740
 He wasn't just giving

00:18:03.740 --> 00:18:04.259
 a little bit

00:18:04.259 --> 00:18:04.759
 of an opinion.

00:18:04.899 --> 00:18:05.240
 You know what

00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:07.000
 I'm not real sure.

00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:08.019
 No, this man

00:18:08.019 --> 00:18:08.619
 is innocent.

00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:11.240
 Practically speaking

00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:11.839
 the matter should

00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:12.420
 have stood there

00:18:12.420 --> 00:18:13.140
 but as you read

00:18:13.140 --> 00:18:13.779
 in the text

00:18:13.779 --> 00:18:15.259
 in verse 5

00:18:15.259 --> 00:18:15.519
 it says

00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:16.700
 but they were urgent

00:18:16.700 --> 00:18:18.960
 when they found out

00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:20.019
 that Pilate

00:18:20.019 --> 00:18:20.900
 was not willing

00:18:20.900 --> 00:18:21.619
 to accommodate

00:18:21.619 --> 00:18:23.000
 their false accusations

00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:24.380
 against Jesus

00:18:24.380 --> 00:18:25.119
 they became

00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:26.599
 even more animated

00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:27.640
 and more concerned

00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:28.299
 with the fact

00:18:28.299 --> 00:18:29.900
 that their ambitions

00:18:29.900 --> 00:18:30.920
 of seeing Jesus

00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:32.140
 crucified on the cross

00:18:32.140 --> 00:18:33.240
 were going to come

00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:33.720
 to an end

00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:34.279
 and they weren't going

00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:34.759
 to accomplish

00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:35.379
 their agenda.

00:18:36.940 --> 00:18:37.819
 I do want you

00:18:37.819 --> 00:18:38.240
 to understand

00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:39.319
 that by this point

00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:40.500
 in Pilate's

00:18:40.500 --> 00:18:42.440
 public life

00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:44.099
 he had already

00:18:44.099 --> 00:18:45.299
 endured several

00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:46.700
 very significant

00:18:46.700 --> 00:18:48.759
 political upheavals

00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:50.039
 among the Jews

00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:52.180
 and the powers

00:18:52.180 --> 00:18:54.460
 that were in Rome

00:18:54.460 --> 00:18:56.299
 were becoming

00:18:56.299 --> 00:18:57.259
 a little suspicious

00:18:57.259 --> 00:18:58.940
 of Pilate's ability

00:18:58.940 --> 00:18:59.720
 to reign

00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:00.819
 to govern

00:19:00.819 --> 00:19:02.960
 and that helps us

00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:03.880
 understand a little bit

00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:05.420
 why once the

00:19:05.420 --> 00:19:06.660
 public outcry

00:19:06.660 --> 00:19:08.380
 became so significant

00:19:08.380 --> 00:19:09.259
 and so pointed

00:19:09.259 --> 00:19:11.100
 that Pilate went ahead

00:19:11.100 --> 00:19:13.539
 and listened further

00:19:13.539 --> 00:19:14.380
 and eventually

00:19:14.380 --> 00:19:15.220
 accommodated

00:19:15.220 --> 00:19:16.700
 the unjust

00:19:16.700 --> 00:19:18.019
 ambitions

00:19:18.019 --> 00:19:19.799
 of a wicked people

00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:20.920
 in a desire

00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:22.079
 to crucify Christ.

00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:24.839
 Well as things

00:19:24.839 --> 00:19:25.779
 are playing out

00:19:25.779 --> 00:19:26.240
 okay

00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:27.819
 we also read

00:19:27.819 --> 00:19:28.700
 not usually stirring

00:19:28.700 --> 00:19:29.200
 up people

00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:29.919
 but he's teaching

00:19:29.919 --> 00:19:31.319
 throughout all Judea

00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:32.819
 and from Galilee

00:19:32.819 --> 00:19:33.960
 even to this place

00:19:33.960 --> 00:19:35.259
 and when Pilate

00:19:35.259 --> 00:19:36.319
 heard those words

00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:37.819
 Judea and Galilee

00:19:37.819 --> 00:19:39.539
 he thought to himself

00:19:39.539 --> 00:19:40.079
 ha!

00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:41.639
 a brilliant

00:19:41.639 --> 00:19:42.939
 opportunity

00:19:42.939 --> 00:19:44.720
 of political

00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:46.319
 dodgem.

00:19:47.059 --> 00:19:47.619
 Why?

00:19:48.399 --> 00:19:49.720
 Because he knew

00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:50.759
 that Herod

00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:51.639
 who was

00:19:51.639 --> 00:19:52.539
 the one

00:19:52.539 --> 00:19:53.259
 responsible

00:19:53.259 --> 00:19:54.619
 for these areas

00:19:54.619 --> 00:19:55.720
 Judea and Galilee

00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:56.539
 was in town

00:19:56.539 --> 00:19:58.539
 and the Roman

00:19:58.539 --> 00:19:59.399
 court system

00:19:59.399 --> 00:20:00.339
 allowed for an

00:20:00.339 --> 00:20:01.700
 individual to be judged

00:20:01.700 --> 00:20:03.879
 where he committed

00:20:03.879 --> 00:20:04.460
 the crime

00:20:04.460 --> 00:20:05.299
 or where he was

00:20:05.299 --> 00:20:06.299
 accused of the crime

00:20:06.299 --> 00:20:08.359
 where he lived

00:20:08.359 --> 00:20:10.339
 or in

00:20:10.339 --> 00:20:12.079
 Rome

00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:12.740
 okay

00:20:12.740 --> 00:20:13.899
 and so when

00:20:13.899 --> 00:20:15.019
 Pilate

00:20:15.019 --> 00:20:16.200
 heard that

00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:17.639
 Herod was in town

00:20:17.639 --> 00:20:18.579
 he thought to himself

00:20:18.579 --> 00:20:20.639
 now I have an out

00:20:20.639 --> 00:20:22.039
 I really don't

00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:22.720
 be responsible

00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:23.559
 for putting this

00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:24.159
 guy to death

00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:24.820
 because I know

00:20:24.820 --> 00:20:25.340
 this is just

00:20:25.340 --> 00:20:27.620
 a matter of

00:20:27.620 --> 00:20:28.340
 political

00:20:28.340 --> 00:20:29.840
 intrigue

00:20:29.840 --> 00:20:30.880
 and hateful

00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:31.220
 attitude

00:20:31.220 --> 00:20:32.120
 towards an

00:20:32.120 --> 00:20:32.660
 undeserving

00:20:32.660 --> 00:20:33.240
 individual

00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:33.860
 who's falsely

00:20:33.860 --> 00:20:34.220
 accused

00:20:34.220 --> 00:20:35.279
 let me hand

00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:35.720
 this off

00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:36.120
 to

00:20:36.120 --> 00:20:37.300
 Herod

00:20:37.300 --> 00:20:38.640
 how many of you

00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:39.160
 have ever found

00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:39.720
 it convenient

00:20:39.720 --> 00:20:40.680
 to have somebody

00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:41.200
 else do your

00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:41.660
 dirty work

00:20:41.660 --> 00:20:43.340
 we've all done

00:20:43.340 --> 00:20:43.580
 that

00:20:43.580 --> 00:20:43.960
 it's like

00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:45.640
 yeah I saw

00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:46.100
 that hand

00:20:46.099 --> 00:20:50.099
 go talk

00:20:50.099 --> 00:20:50.599
 to your

00:20:50.599 --> 00:20:51.240
 dad

00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:54.059
 that was

00:20:54.059 --> 00:20:54.919
 terrifying to me

00:20:54.919 --> 00:20:55.719
 because he would

00:20:55.719 --> 00:20:56.079
 always say

00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:56.839
 go pick a belt

00:20:56.839 --> 00:20:59.639
 I never found

00:20:59.639 --> 00:21:00.399
 one that worked

00:21:00.399 --> 00:21:02.759
 okay

00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:03.519
 so

00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:04.959
 here is

00:21:04.959 --> 00:21:05.480
 Pilate

00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:06.759
 thinking to

00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:07.279
 himself

00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:07.959
 ha

00:21:07.959 --> 00:21:09.139
 I have this

00:21:09.139 --> 00:21:09.719
 opportunity

00:21:09.719 --> 00:21:10.779
 of handing

00:21:10.779 --> 00:21:11.799
 off judgment

00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:12.879
 to

00:21:12.879 --> 00:21:13.659
 Herod

00:21:13.660 --> 00:21:15.040
 now we do

00:21:15.040 --> 00:21:15.400
 know

00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:16.779
 that

00:21:16.779 --> 00:21:17.680
 when Herod

00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:18.220
 had the

00:21:18.220 --> 00:21:18.820
 opportunity

00:21:18.820 --> 00:21:20.420
 he was

00:21:20.420 --> 00:21:20.860
 quite

00:21:20.860 --> 00:21:21.540
 intrigued

00:21:21.540 --> 00:21:22.279
 by this

00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:23.620
 and he

00:21:23.620 --> 00:21:24.000
 thought to

00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:24.279
 himself

00:21:24.279 --> 00:21:24.580
 you know

00:21:24.580 --> 00:21:24.779
 what

00:21:24.779 --> 00:21:25.140
 I've been

00:21:25.140 --> 00:21:25.480
 curious

00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:26.040
 about this

00:21:26.040 --> 00:21:26.380
 Jesus

00:21:26.380 --> 00:21:26.700
 remember

00:21:26.700 --> 00:21:27.140
 earlier

00:21:27.140 --> 00:21:27.960
 is this

00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:28.360
 John the

00:21:28.360 --> 00:21:28.640
 Baptist

00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:29.140
 come back

00:21:29.140 --> 00:21:29.480
 from the

00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:29.740
 dead

00:21:29.740 --> 00:21:30.060
 and didn't

00:21:30.060 --> 00:21:30.340
 know who

00:21:30.340 --> 00:21:30.860
 he was

00:21:30.860 --> 00:21:32.300
 and he'd

00:21:32.300 --> 00:21:32.740
 heard

00:21:32.740 --> 00:21:33.320
 now by the

00:21:33.320 --> 00:21:33.500
 way

00:21:33.500 --> 00:21:34.160
 you do

00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:34.440
 have to

00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:34.900
 understand

00:21:34.900 --> 00:21:35.300
 that

00:21:35.300 --> 00:21:38.120
 authoritarian

00:21:38.120 --> 00:21:38.900
 individuals

00:21:38.900 --> 00:21:39.740
 like Pilate

00:21:39.740 --> 00:21:40.360
 and Herod

00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:41.959
 did work

00:21:41.959 --> 00:21:42.500
 hard

00:21:42.500 --> 00:21:42.979
 to have

00:21:42.979 --> 00:21:43.399
 kind of

00:21:43.399 --> 00:21:44.399
 a pulse

00:21:44.399 --> 00:21:44.740
 on what

00:21:44.740 --> 00:21:45.240
 was happening

00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:45.599
 in their

00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:45.959
 region

00:21:45.959 --> 00:21:46.379
 because

00:21:46.379 --> 00:21:47.319
 they were

00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:47.959
 responsible

00:21:47.959 --> 00:21:48.599
 particularly

00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:49.359
 for civil

00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:49.899
 obedience

00:21:49.899 --> 00:21:51.359
 and so

00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:52.019
 they would

00:21:52.019 --> 00:21:52.439
 have known

00:21:52.439 --> 00:21:53.139
 well there's

00:21:53.139 --> 00:21:53.519
 this guy

00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:53.979
 going around

00:21:53.979 --> 00:21:54.559
 doing miracles

00:21:54.559 --> 00:21:55.000
 he turned

00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:55.479
 water into

00:21:55.479 --> 00:21:55.839
 wine

00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:56.399
 and he

00:21:56.399 --> 00:21:56.799
 walked on

00:21:56.799 --> 00:21:57.099
 water

00:21:57.099 --> 00:21:57.359
 and he

00:21:57.359 --> 00:21:57.639
 healed

00:21:57.639 --> 00:21:58.500
 the sick

00:21:58.500 --> 00:21:58.799
 and he's

00:21:58.799 --> 00:21:59.279
 raised the

00:21:59.279 --> 00:21:59.599
 dead

00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:00.839
 and Herod

00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:01.259
 thought to

00:22:01.259 --> 00:22:01.539
 himself

00:22:01.539 --> 00:22:01.879
 you know

00:22:01.879 --> 00:22:02.139
 what

00:22:02.139 --> 00:22:02.579
 I'd

00:22:02.579 --> 00:22:02.799
 really

00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:03.159
 like to

00:22:03.159 --> 00:22:03.500
 see him

00:22:03.500 --> 00:22:03.859
 do one

00:22:03.859 --> 00:22:04.279
 of these

00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:04.779
 you know

00:22:04.779 --> 00:22:08.899
 Jesus

00:22:08.899 --> 00:22:09.619
 shows up

00:22:09.619 --> 00:22:11.379
 they mock

00:22:11.379 --> 00:22:11.639
 him

00:22:11.639 --> 00:22:13.179
 Jesus

00:22:13.179 --> 00:22:13.799
 doesn't

00:22:13.799 --> 00:22:14.739
 answer

00:22:14.739 --> 00:22:16.079
 doesn't

00:22:16.079 --> 00:22:16.599
 show a

00:22:16.599 --> 00:22:16.959
 miracle

00:22:16.959 --> 00:22:17.899
 he's

00:22:17.899 --> 00:22:18.419
 quiet

00:22:18.419 --> 00:22:19.099
 he's

00:22:19.099 --> 00:22:19.519
 quiet

00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:22.039
 and it

00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:22.659
 frustrates

00:22:22.659 --> 00:22:23.779
 Herod

00:22:23.779 --> 00:22:25.719
 and he

00:22:25.719 --> 00:22:26.179
 sends him

00:22:26.179 --> 00:22:26.659
 back

00:22:26.659 --> 00:22:29.739
 to

00:22:29.739 --> 00:22:31.299
 Pilate

00:22:31.299 --> 00:22:33.019
 who

00:22:33.019 --> 00:22:33.619
 ultimately

00:22:33.619 --> 00:22:35.259
 gives

00:22:35.259 --> 00:22:35.619
 in

00:22:35.619 --> 00:22:37.439
 and has

00:22:37.439 --> 00:22:37.919
 Jesus

00:22:37.919 --> 00:22:38.599
 delivered

00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:39.819
 to be

00:22:39.819 --> 00:22:40.259
 crucified

00:22:40.259 --> 00:22:42.559
 that's

00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:43.199
 in broad

00:22:43.199 --> 00:22:43.699
 terms

00:22:43.699 --> 00:22:44.079
 the

00:22:44.079 --> 00:22:44.500
 what

00:22:44.500 --> 00:22:45.119
 of the

00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:45.480
 text

00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:45.819
 now you

00:22:45.819 --> 00:22:46.279
 can work

00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:46.639
 through

00:22:46.639 --> 00:22:47.679
 the particular

00:22:47.679 --> 00:22:48.219
 details

00:22:48.219 --> 00:22:48.779
 and see

00:22:48.779 --> 00:22:49.139
 it for

00:22:49.139 --> 00:22:49.659
 yourself

00:22:49.659 --> 00:22:50.740
 and it's

00:22:50.740 --> 00:22:51.259
 there to

00:22:51.259 --> 00:22:51.559
 be

00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:52.139
 considered

00:22:52.139 --> 00:22:53.219
 and it's

00:22:53.219 --> 00:22:53.799
 there for

00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:54.480
 our record

00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:55.079
 to understand

00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:55.639
 what happened

00:22:55.639 --> 00:22:57.500
 but I think

00:22:57.500 --> 00:22:58.240
 another thing

00:22:58.240 --> 00:22:58.779
 that is very

00:22:58.779 --> 00:22:59.639
 important for us

00:22:59.639 --> 00:23:00.240
 to understand

00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:00.679
 as we are

00:23:00.679 --> 00:23:01.099
 working our

00:23:01.099 --> 00:23:01.359
 way through

00:23:01.359 --> 00:23:01.759
 the text

00:23:01.759 --> 00:23:02.579
 is it's

00:23:02.579 --> 00:23:03.079
 appropriate

00:23:03.079 --> 00:23:03.899
 when we are

00:23:03.899 --> 00:23:04.619
 engaged in

00:23:04.619 --> 00:23:05.299
 personal Bible

00:23:05.299 --> 00:23:05.779
 study

00:23:05.779 --> 00:23:08.019
 to ask

00:23:08.019 --> 00:23:08.579
 the question

00:23:08.579 --> 00:23:09.019
 why

00:23:09.019 --> 00:23:10.980
 why do

00:23:10.980 --> 00:23:11.180
 you do

00:23:11.180 --> 00:23:11.500
 that

00:23:11.500 --> 00:23:13.440
 and you

00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:14.019
 probably have

00:23:14.019 --> 00:23:14.619
 done that

00:23:14.619 --> 00:23:15.019
 when

00:23:15.019 --> 00:23:16.519
 one of your

00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:17.099
 children has

00:23:17.099 --> 00:23:17.740
 come to you

00:23:17.740 --> 00:23:18.259
 or somebody

00:23:18.259 --> 00:23:18.799
 else has

00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:19.819
 come and

00:23:19.819 --> 00:23:19.980
 said

00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:21.440
 so and so

00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:22.019
 did such

00:23:22.019 --> 00:23:22.420
 and such

00:23:22.420 --> 00:23:22.779
 to me

00:23:22.779 --> 00:23:23.019
 and you

00:23:23.019 --> 00:23:23.639
 ask yourself

00:23:23.639 --> 00:23:24.180
 why

00:23:24.180 --> 00:23:26.379
 why did

00:23:26.379 --> 00:23:26.700
 you do

00:23:26.700 --> 00:23:27.139
 that

00:23:27.140 --> 00:23:29.280
 and so

00:23:29.280 --> 00:23:30.200
 what I want

00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:30.700
 us to do

00:23:30.700 --> 00:23:31.500
 next is I

00:23:31.500 --> 00:23:31.960
 want us to

00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:32.520
 think about

00:23:32.520 --> 00:23:33.180
 the why

00:23:33.180 --> 00:23:35.520
 behind the

00:23:35.520 --> 00:23:36.120
 silence

00:23:36.120 --> 00:23:37.120
 of our

00:23:37.120 --> 00:23:37.440
 Savior

00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:38.880
 because it's

00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:39.420
 significant

00:23:39.420 --> 00:23:41.380
 the why

00:23:41.380 --> 00:23:42.140
 is significant

00:23:42.140 --> 00:23:42.660
 in part

00:23:42.660 --> 00:23:43.100
 because

00:23:43.100 --> 00:23:44.520
 the truth

00:23:44.520 --> 00:23:44.780
 of the matter

00:23:44.780 --> 00:23:45.180
 is the

00:23:45.180 --> 00:23:45.500
 silence

00:23:45.500 --> 00:23:46.020
 is not

00:23:46.020 --> 00:23:46.460
 normal

00:23:46.460 --> 00:23:48.600
 now you

00:23:48.600 --> 00:23:48.980
 may think

00:23:48.980 --> 00:23:49.480
 to yourself

00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:50.020
 oh well

00:23:50.020 --> 00:23:50.600
 I am very

00:23:50.600 --> 00:23:51.060
 guarded

00:23:51.060 --> 00:23:51.620
 in what I

00:23:51.620 --> 00:23:52.120
 say

00:23:52.120 --> 00:23:52.980
 but the

00:23:52.980 --> 00:23:53.300
 truth of

00:23:53.300 --> 00:23:53.480
 the matter

00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:53.840
 is you're

00:23:53.840 --> 00:23:54.120
 not

00:23:54.119 --> 00:23:57.559
 we all

00:23:57.559 --> 00:23:57.879
 struggle

00:23:57.879 --> 00:23:58.239
 with our

00:23:58.239 --> 00:23:58.559
 tongue

00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:00.000
 James makes

00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:00.579
 that clear

00:24:00.579 --> 00:24:01.119
 doesn't it

00:24:01.119 --> 00:24:02.399
 we struggle

00:24:02.399 --> 00:24:02.779
 with our

00:24:02.779 --> 00:24:03.059
 tongue

00:24:03.059 --> 00:24:04.179
 I will tell

00:24:04.179 --> 00:24:04.559
 you that the

00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:05.259
 older I get

00:24:05.259 --> 00:24:06.059
 the more

00:24:06.059 --> 00:24:06.559
 pleasure I

00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:07.000
 take in the

00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:07.359
 things I

00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:08.019
 don't say

00:24:08.019 --> 00:24:09.319
 rather than

00:24:09.319 --> 00:24:09.799
 the things I

00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:10.319
 do say

00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:12.059
 and in

00:24:12.059 --> 00:24:12.799
 relationship to

00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:13.239
 that one of

00:24:13.239 --> 00:24:13.699
 the things that

00:24:13.699 --> 00:24:14.219
 I found that

00:24:14.219 --> 00:24:14.679
 has helped

00:24:14.679 --> 00:24:15.559
 me and I

00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:16.579
 have said so

00:24:16.579 --> 00:24:17.199
 many things

00:24:17.199 --> 00:24:17.559
 that I

00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:17.899
 shouldn't have

00:24:17.899 --> 00:24:18.159
 said

00:24:18.159 --> 00:24:19.799
 is a

00:24:19.799 --> 00:24:20.419
 passage of

00:24:20.419 --> 00:24:20.679
 scripture

00:24:20.679 --> 00:24:21.079
 there are

00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:21.439
 many of

00:24:21.439 --> 00:24:21.719
 them that

00:24:21.719 --> 00:24:22.039
 come to

00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:22.239
 mind

00:24:22.239 --> 00:24:22.699
 but one in

00:24:22.699 --> 00:24:23.039
 particular

00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:23.479
 Proverbs

00:24:23.479 --> 00:24:24.059
 chapter 10

00:24:24.059 --> 00:24:24.879
 verse 19

00:24:24.879 --> 00:24:26.799
 when words

00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:27.519
 are many

00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:29.839
 transgression

00:24:29.839 --> 00:24:30.519
 is not

00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:31.059
 lacking

00:24:31.059 --> 00:24:34.679
 when words

00:24:34.679 --> 00:24:35.359
 are many

00:24:35.359 --> 00:24:36.159
 transgression

00:24:36.159 --> 00:24:36.859
 is not

00:24:36.859 --> 00:24:37.339
 lacking

00:24:37.339 --> 00:24:39.519
 do you know

00:24:39.519 --> 00:24:39.859
 what that's

00:24:39.859 --> 00:24:40.119
 saying

00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:41.859
 the more

00:24:41.859 --> 00:24:42.480
 I talk

00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:44.339
 the higher

00:24:44.339 --> 00:24:45.079
 the probability

00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:45.539
 that I'm

00:24:45.539 --> 00:24:45.919
 going to say

00:24:45.919 --> 00:24:46.440
 something I

00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:47.059
 shouldn't

00:24:47.059 --> 00:24:49.960
 now in

00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:50.539
 relationship

00:24:50.539 --> 00:24:51.159
 to that

00:24:51.159 --> 00:24:52.059
 because I

00:24:52.059 --> 00:24:52.559
 would I

00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:52.960
 would make

00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:53.460
 the assumption

00:24:53.460 --> 00:24:54.620
 that most

00:24:54.620 --> 00:24:54.880
 of you

00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:55.279
 here are

00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:55.720
 believers

00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:56.160
 and since

00:24:56.160 --> 00:24:56.480
 you are

00:24:56.480 --> 00:24:56.840
 believers

00:24:56.840 --> 00:24:57.180
 I'm going

00:24:57.180 --> 00:24:57.460
 to make

00:24:57.460 --> 00:24:57.799
 another

00:24:57.799 --> 00:24:58.220
 assumption

00:24:58.220 --> 00:24:59.180
 that you're

00:24:59.180 --> 00:24:59.740
 concerned

00:24:59.740 --> 00:25:00.680
 with your

00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:01.779
 ongoing

00:25:01.779 --> 00:25:03.960
 spiritual

00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:05.079
 development

00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:06.279
 and your

00:25:06.279 --> 00:25:06.860
 progressive

00:25:06.860 --> 00:25:07.640
 hatred for

00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:07.960
 sin

00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:08.400
 right

00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:10.340
 I don't

00:25:10.340 --> 00:25:10.840
 want to keep

00:25:10.840 --> 00:25:11.380
 on doing

00:25:11.380 --> 00:25:12.059
 those things

00:25:12.059 --> 00:25:12.700
 that I

00:25:12.700 --> 00:25:13.259
 have done

00:25:13.259 --> 00:25:13.519
 in the

00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:14.120
 past

00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:19.439
 if there

00:25:19.439 --> 00:25:19.939
 is a

00:25:19.939 --> 00:25:20.500
 sincere

00:25:20.500 --> 00:25:21.159
 desire

00:25:21.159 --> 00:25:22.059
 to grow

00:25:22.059 --> 00:25:23.299
 and change

00:25:23.299 --> 00:25:23.799
 it will

00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:24.559
 show up

00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:25.399
 in the

00:25:25.399 --> 00:25:25.959
 battery

00:25:25.959 --> 00:25:26.739
 of bible

00:25:26.739 --> 00:25:27.139
 verses

00:25:27.139 --> 00:25:27.939
 you have

00:25:27.939 --> 00:25:28.319
 that are

00:25:28.319 --> 00:25:28.859
 supportive

00:25:28.859 --> 00:25:29.299
 of your

00:25:29.299 --> 00:25:29.699
 struggle

00:25:29.699 --> 00:25:30.059
 did you

00:25:30.059 --> 00:25:30.319
 understand

00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:30.539
 what I

00:25:30.539 --> 00:25:30.759
 said

00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:32.759
 I'm a

00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:32.879
 deer

00:25:32.879 --> 00:25:33.079
 hunter

00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:34.919
 and I've

00:25:34.919 --> 00:25:35.299
 learned that

00:25:35.299 --> 00:25:35.879
 more arrows

00:25:35.879 --> 00:25:36.279
 are better

00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:36.779
 than fewer

00:25:36.779 --> 00:25:37.239
 arrows

00:25:37.239 --> 00:25:37.919
 and what do

00:25:37.919 --> 00:25:38.119
 I mean

00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:38.539
 by that

00:25:38.539 --> 00:25:41.119
 if I miss

00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:41.659
 with one

00:25:41.659 --> 00:25:42.139
 I'd like

00:25:42.139 --> 00:25:42.440
 to have

00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:42.839
 another

00:25:42.839 --> 00:25:43.899
 and another

00:25:43.899 --> 00:25:44.799
 and another

00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:45.720
 until I

00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:46.119
 accomplish

00:25:46.119 --> 00:25:46.659
 my end

00:25:46.659 --> 00:25:47.619
 okay

00:25:47.619 --> 00:25:49.039
 same thing

00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:49.460
 with bible

00:25:49.460 --> 00:25:49.759
 verses

00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:50.059
 you're

00:25:50.059 --> 00:25:50.399
 struggling

00:25:50.399 --> 00:25:50.700
 with a

00:25:50.700 --> 00:25:50.920
 matter

00:25:50.920 --> 00:25:51.379
 of sin

00:25:51.379 --> 00:25:51.639
 whether

00:25:51.639 --> 00:25:51.920
 it is

00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:52.079
 in the

00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:52.279
 matter

00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:52.480
 of

00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:53.099
 moral

00:25:53.099 --> 00:25:53.539
 purity

00:25:53.539 --> 00:25:53.879
 or it's

00:25:53.879 --> 00:25:54.220
 the matter

00:25:54.220 --> 00:25:54.460
 of

00:25:54.460 --> 00:25:55.359
 pride

00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:55.799
 pride

00:25:55.799 --> 00:25:56.180
 cometh

00:25:56.180 --> 00:25:56.519
 before

00:25:56.519 --> 00:25:56.779
 a

00:25:56.779 --> 00:25:58.259
 and a

00:25:58.259 --> 00:25:58.639
 haughty

00:25:58.639 --> 00:25:59.220
 spirit

00:25:59.220 --> 00:25:59.599
 before

00:25:59.599 --> 00:26:01.559
 I hope

00:26:01.559 --> 00:26:02.059
 that that's

00:26:02.059 --> 00:26:02.639
 not the

00:26:02.639 --> 00:26:03.220
 end

00:26:03.220 --> 00:26:03.920
 of the

00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:04.440
 passages

00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:04.920
 that you

00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:05.299
 have

00:26:05.299 --> 00:26:06.079
 that relate

00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:06.480
 to that

00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:06.879
 ongoing

00:26:06.879 --> 00:26:07.379
 struggle

00:26:07.379 --> 00:26:07.879
 my point

00:26:07.879 --> 00:26:08.299
 is this

00:26:08.299 --> 00:26:08.619
 is that

00:26:08.619 --> 00:26:09.579
 when we

00:26:09.579 --> 00:26:10.240
 recognize

00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:10.799
 that we

00:26:10.799 --> 00:26:11.379
 are dealing

00:26:11.379 --> 00:26:11.839
 with a

00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:12.700
 battle

00:26:12.700 --> 00:26:13.539
 of sin

00:26:13.539 --> 00:26:13.879
 in our

00:26:13.879 --> 00:26:14.259
 heart

00:26:14.259 --> 00:26:15.339
 one of the

00:26:15.339 --> 00:26:15.859
 indications

00:26:15.859 --> 00:26:16.379
 that we're

00:26:16.379 --> 00:26:17.019
 taking that

00:26:17.019 --> 00:26:17.419
 struggle

00:26:17.419 --> 00:26:18.019
 seriously

00:26:18.019 --> 00:26:18.940
 is we

00:26:18.940 --> 00:26:19.720
 begin to

00:26:19.720 --> 00:26:20.579
 fill up

00:26:20.579 --> 00:26:21.579
 our mind

00:26:21.579 --> 00:26:22.819
 with passages

00:26:22.819 --> 00:26:23.759
 that the

00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:24.419
 Holy Spirit

00:26:24.419 --> 00:26:25.079
 will bring

00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:25.639
 to mind

00:26:25.639 --> 00:26:26.339
 to help

00:26:26.339 --> 00:26:26.639
 us with

00:26:26.639 --> 00:26:27.139
 that battle

00:26:27.139 --> 00:26:28.139
 amen

00:26:28.139 --> 00:26:31.599
 the Holy Spirit

00:26:31.599 --> 00:26:32.119
 is really not

00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:32.740
 obligated to

00:26:32.740 --> 00:26:33.019
 help me

00:26:33.019 --> 00:26:33.379
 with my

00:26:33.379 --> 00:26:34.019
 self-talk

00:26:34.019 --> 00:26:34.379
 how many of

00:26:34.379 --> 00:26:34.539
 you know

00:26:34.539 --> 00:26:34.819
 what I mean

00:26:34.819 --> 00:26:35.460
 by self-talk

00:26:35.460 --> 00:26:36.460
 now Tim

00:26:36.460 --> 00:26:38.640
 the Holy

00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:39.180
 Spirit is

00:26:39.180 --> 00:26:40.019
 obligated to

00:26:40.019 --> 00:26:40.420
 take the

00:26:40.420 --> 00:26:40.799
 scriptures

00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:42.400
 and use

00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:42.759
 them

00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:43.920
 is not

00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:44.720
 my word

00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:45.779
 a fire

00:26:45.779 --> 00:26:47.840
 is not

00:26:47.840 --> 00:26:48.720
 my word

00:26:48.720 --> 00:26:49.960
 a hammer

00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:52.299
 the word

00:26:52.299 --> 00:26:52.759
 of God

00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:53.759
 coupled with

00:26:53.759 --> 00:26:54.160
 the spirit

00:26:54.160 --> 00:26:54.579
 of God

00:26:54.579 --> 00:26:54.920
 is going

00:26:54.920 --> 00:26:55.220
 to help

00:26:55.220 --> 00:26:55.480
 Tim

00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:55.900
 Knoyer

00:26:55.900 --> 00:26:56.640
 be a

00:26:56.640 --> 00:26:56.880
 little

00:26:56.880 --> 00:26:57.640
 less

00:26:57.640 --> 00:26:58.360
 inclined

00:26:58.360 --> 00:26:58.980
 to do

00:26:58.980 --> 00:26:59.660
 and say

00:26:59.660 --> 00:27:00.360
 and think

00:27:00.360 --> 00:27:01.160
 some of

00:27:01.160 --> 00:27:01.720
 the things

00:27:01.720 --> 00:27:02.059
 that I

00:27:02.059 --> 00:27:02.319
 do

00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:04.380
 my point

00:27:04.380 --> 00:27:05.640
 the larger

00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:06.720
 focus is

00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:07.920
 that silence

00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:08.420
 is not

00:27:08.420 --> 00:27:08.839
 normal

00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:10.759
 and it

00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:11.299
 would have

00:27:11.299 --> 00:27:11.940
 been normal

00:27:11.940 --> 00:27:14.519
 for Jesus

00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:15.160
 to defend

00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:15.680
 himself

00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:17.440
 secondly

00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:19.039
 we do

00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:20.019
 have many

00:27:20.019 --> 00:27:20.559
 Bible

00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:21.100
 examples

00:27:21.100 --> 00:27:21.940
 of individuals

00:27:21.940 --> 00:27:22.519
 who when

00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:23.440
 they're falsely

00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:23.940
 accused

00:27:23.940 --> 00:27:24.860
 they went

00:27:24.860 --> 00:27:25.360
 ahead and

00:27:25.360 --> 00:27:25.839
 had something

00:27:25.839 --> 00:27:26.360
 to say

00:27:26.360 --> 00:27:29.120
 Acts chapter

00:27:29.120 --> 00:27:29.539
 4

00:27:29.539 --> 00:27:30.200
 Peter and

00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:30.580
 John

00:27:30.580 --> 00:27:31.400
 before the

00:27:31.400 --> 00:27:32.120
 Sanhedrin

00:27:32.120 --> 00:27:33.900
 they had

00:27:33.900 --> 00:27:34.400
 something to

00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:34.680
 say

00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:36.700
 how is it

00:27:36.700 --> 00:27:37.039
 that these

00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:37.600
 unlearned

00:27:37.600 --> 00:27:37.880
 men

00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:39.519
 are so

00:27:39.519 --> 00:27:39.980
 proficient

00:27:39.980 --> 00:27:40.340
 well

00:27:40.340 --> 00:27:42.279
 they figured

00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:42.680
 out they

00:27:42.680 --> 00:27:42.960
 had been

00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:43.640
 with Jesus

00:27:43.640 --> 00:27:45.180
 I think

00:27:45.180 --> 00:27:45.519
 about

00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:46.240
 Stephen

00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:47.420
 in Acts

00:27:47.420 --> 00:27:48.100
 chapter 7

00:27:48.100 --> 00:27:49.920
 brought with

00:27:49.920 --> 00:27:50.220
 false

00:27:50.220 --> 00:27:51.000
 accusation

00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:52.759
 and any

00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:52.980
 of you

00:27:52.980 --> 00:27:53.220
 who have

00:27:53.220 --> 00:27:53.500
 read

00:27:53.500 --> 00:27:54.740
 Stephen's

00:27:54.740 --> 00:27:54.960
 little

00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:55.400
 brief

00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:56.120
 sermon

00:27:56.120 --> 00:27:57.100
 know

00:27:57.100 --> 00:27:57.559
 that he

00:27:57.559 --> 00:27:58.140
 starts out

00:27:58.140 --> 00:27:58.580
 with just

00:27:58.580 --> 00:27:59.220
 a wonderful

00:27:59.220 --> 00:27:59.920
 recitation

00:27:59.920 --> 00:28:00.420
 of Old

00:28:00.420 --> 00:28:00.779
 Testament

00:28:00.779 --> 00:28:01.940
 history

00:28:01.940 --> 00:28:02.779
 and he

00:28:02.779 --> 00:28:03.340
 ends up

00:28:03.340 --> 00:28:03.980
 what does

00:28:03.980 --> 00:28:04.380
 he do

00:28:04.380 --> 00:28:06.460
 you hard

00:28:06.460 --> 00:28:06.860
 hearted

00:28:06.860 --> 00:28:07.220
 stiff

00:28:07.220 --> 00:28:07.519
 neck

00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:09.180
 he lets

00:28:09.180 --> 00:28:09.560
 them know

00:28:09.560 --> 00:28:09.940
 that they

00:28:09.940 --> 00:28:10.320
 are having

00:28:10.320 --> 00:28:10.779
 a problem

00:28:10.779 --> 00:28:11.279
 with sin

00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:11.539
 and it

00:28:11.539 --> 00:28:11.759
 just

00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:12.480
 turned

00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:12.620
 them

00:28:12.620 --> 00:28:13.620
 angry

00:28:13.620 --> 00:28:14.720
 well we

00:28:14.720 --> 00:28:15.019
 think about

00:28:15.019 --> 00:28:15.440
 Paul

00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:16.259
 falsely

00:28:16.259 --> 00:28:16.800
 accused

00:28:16.800 --> 00:28:17.519
 he defended

00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:18.060
 himself

00:28:18.060 --> 00:28:19.740
 and I

00:28:19.740 --> 00:28:20.080
 think about

00:28:20.080 --> 00:28:20.560
 the passage

00:28:20.560 --> 00:28:20.940
 in Luke

00:28:20.940 --> 00:28:21.620
 chapter 12

00:28:21.620 --> 00:28:22.180
 verse 11

00:28:22.180 --> 00:28:22.500
 and 12

00:28:22.500 --> 00:28:22.880
 let's look

00:28:22.880 --> 00:28:23.100
 at it

00:28:23.100 --> 00:28:23.380
 just for

00:28:23.380 --> 00:28:23.779
 a moment

00:28:23.779 --> 00:28:24.460
 you're in

00:28:24.460 --> 00:28:25.000
 Luke 22

00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:25.539
 so turn

00:28:25.539 --> 00:28:25.860
 back

00:28:25.860 --> 00:28:26.300
 just for

00:28:26.300 --> 00:28:26.840
 a second

00:28:26.839 --> 00:28:30.899
 Luke

00:28:30.899 --> 00:28:31.599
 chapter 12

00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:32.299
 verse 11

00:28:32.299 --> 00:28:32.779
 and 12

00:28:32.779 --> 00:28:33.159
 here's what

00:28:33.159 --> 00:28:33.659
 it says

00:28:33.659 --> 00:28:37.319
 and when

00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:37.699
 they bring

00:28:37.699 --> 00:28:38.039
 you before

00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:38.819
 the synagogues

00:28:38.819 --> 00:28:39.059
 and the

00:28:39.059 --> 00:28:39.319
 rulers

00:28:39.319 --> 00:28:39.659
 and the

00:28:39.659 --> 00:28:40.119
 authorities

00:28:40.119 --> 00:28:41.500
 do not

00:28:41.500 --> 00:28:42.359
 be anxious

00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:43.419
 about how

00:28:43.419 --> 00:28:43.859
 you should

00:28:43.859 --> 00:28:44.240
 defend

00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:44.699
 yourself

00:28:44.699 --> 00:28:45.459
 or what

00:28:45.459 --> 00:28:45.859
 you should

00:28:45.859 --> 00:28:46.319
 say

00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:46.720
 a little

00:28:46.720 --> 00:28:47.019
 comment

00:28:47.019 --> 00:28:47.279
 here

00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:48.439
 probably

00:28:48.439 --> 00:28:49.159
 most of

00:28:49.159 --> 00:28:49.539
 us here

00:28:49.539 --> 00:28:50.039
 when we

00:28:50.039 --> 00:28:50.480
 know we're

00:28:50.480 --> 00:28:51.079
 going into

00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:51.959
 an adversarial

00:28:51.959 --> 00:28:52.679
 conversation

00:28:52.679 --> 00:28:53.799
 we write

00:28:53.799 --> 00:28:54.199
 down

00:28:54.200 --> 00:28:54.840
 I hope

00:28:54.840 --> 00:28:56.480
 some of

00:28:56.480 --> 00:28:56.900
 the things

00:28:56.900 --> 00:28:57.200
 that we

00:28:57.200 --> 00:28:57.500
 think

00:28:57.500 --> 00:28:57.880
 need to

00:28:57.880 --> 00:28:58.220
 be said

00:28:58.220 --> 00:28:58.440
 am I

00:28:58.440 --> 00:28:58.720
 right

00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:00.900
 I used

00:29:00.900 --> 00:29:01.180
 to put

00:29:01.180 --> 00:29:01.420
 them on

00:29:01.420 --> 00:29:01.600
 a little

00:29:01.600 --> 00:29:01.900
 three by

00:29:01.900 --> 00:29:02.480
 five card

00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:02.960
 or a little

00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:03.259
 note

00:29:03.259 --> 00:29:03.600
 somewhere

00:29:03.600 --> 00:29:04.680
 so I

00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:05.000
 knew

00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:05.420
 where I

00:29:05.420 --> 00:29:05.900
 was

00:29:05.900 --> 00:29:06.559
 and I

00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:06.900
 knew

00:29:06.900 --> 00:29:07.279
 what

00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:08.039
 I

00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:08.380
 thought

00:29:08.380 --> 00:29:08.680
 needed

00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:08.980
 to be

00:29:08.980 --> 00:29:09.220
 said

00:29:09.220 --> 00:29:09.460
 at the

00:29:09.460 --> 00:29:09.680
 moment

00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:10.019
 after I

00:29:10.019 --> 00:29:10.240
 prayed

00:29:10.240 --> 00:29:10.380
 and

00:29:10.380 --> 00:29:10.519
 thought

00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:10.740
 about

00:29:10.740 --> 00:29:10.920
 it

00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:11.660
 and

00:29:11.660 --> 00:29:11.920
 Jesus

00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:12.140
 says

00:29:12.140 --> 00:29:12.380
 by the

00:29:12.380 --> 00:29:12.500
 way

00:29:12.500 --> 00:29:12.700
 when

00:29:12.700 --> 00:29:12.880
 you're

00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:13.000
 in

00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:13.259
 this

00:29:13.259 --> 00:29:13.799
 situation

00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:14.299
 don't

00:29:14.299 --> 00:29:14.500
 fret

00:29:14.500 --> 00:29:14.759
 about

00:29:14.759 --> 00:29:14.960
 it

00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:15.299
 why

00:29:15.299 --> 00:29:18.000
 for

00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:18.160
 the

00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:18.380
 Holy

00:29:18.380 --> 00:29:18.860
 Spirit

00:29:18.860 --> 00:29:19.759
 will

00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:20.160
 teach

00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:20.440
 you

00:29:20.440 --> 00:29:20.720
 in

00:29:20.720 --> 00:29:20.980
 that

00:29:20.980 --> 00:29:21.340
 very

00:29:21.340 --> 00:29:21.740
 hour

00:29:21.740 --> 00:29:22.100
 what

00:29:22.100 --> 00:29:22.279
 you

00:29:24.200 --> 00:29:24.340
 is

00:29:24.340 --> 00:29:24.559
 this

00:29:24.559 --> 00:29:25.039
 here's

00:29:25.039 --> 00:29:25.380
 Jesus

00:29:25.380 --> 00:29:25.559
 who

00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:25.720
 was

00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:26.180
 quiet

00:29:26.180 --> 00:29:28.160
 contrary

00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:28.500
 to the

00:29:28.500 --> 00:29:28.759
 general

00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:29.080
 nature

00:29:29.080 --> 00:29:29.259
 of

00:29:29.259 --> 00:29:30.000
 humanity

00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:31.240
 number

00:29:31.240 --> 00:29:31.480
 two

00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:31.640
 he

00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:31.840
 was

00:29:31.840 --> 00:29:32.299
 quiet

00:29:32.299 --> 00:29:32.840
 contrary

00:29:32.840 --> 00:29:33.120
 to

00:29:33.120 --> 00:29:33.559
 the

00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:33.900
 passage

00:29:33.900 --> 00:29:34.140
 in

00:29:34.140 --> 00:29:34.420
 Luke

00:29:34.420 --> 00:29:34.720
 chapter

00:29:34.720 --> 00:29:35.059
 12

00:29:35.059 --> 00:29:35.259
 that

00:29:35.259 --> 00:29:35.500
 tells

00:29:35.500 --> 00:29:35.680
 us

00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:36.259
 when

00:29:36.259 --> 00:29:36.519
 you're

00:29:36.519 --> 00:29:36.759
 brought

00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:36.960
 in

00:29:36.960 --> 00:29:37.120
 and

00:29:37.120 --> 00:29:37.360
 false

00:29:37.360 --> 00:29:37.600
 don't

00:29:37.600 --> 00:29:37.799
 worry

00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:38.000
 about

00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:38.100
 it

00:29:38.100 --> 00:29:38.200
 the

00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:38.360
 Holy

00:29:38.360 --> 00:29:38.640
 Spirit

00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:38.779
 will

00:29:38.779 --> 00:29:38.920
 give

00:29:38.920 --> 00:29:39.019
 you

00:29:39.019 --> 00:29:39.259
 something

00:29:39.259 --> 00:29:39.480
 to

00:29:39.480 --> 00:29:39.860
 say

00:29:39.860 --> 00:29:42.080
 so

00:29:42.080 --> 00:29:42.279
 we

00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:42.500
 have

00:29:42.500 --> 00:29:42.620
 to

00:29:42.620 --> 00:29:42.840
 ask

00:29:42.840 --> 00:29:43.180
 ourselves

00:29:43.180 --> 00:29:43.680
 why

00:29:43.680 --> 00:29:44.440
 didn't

00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:44.920
 Jesus

 there's

00:31:55.379 --> 00:31:55.619
 something

00:31:55.619 --> 00:31:56.000
 wrong

00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:58.219
 when we

00:31:58.219 --> 00:31:58.679
 believe

00:31:58.679 --> 00:31:59.079
 that the

00:31:59.079 --> 00:31:59.459
 God

00:31:59.459 --> 00:32:00.919
 of this

 the

 savior

00:32:02.419 --> 00:32:02.659
 of

00:32:02.659 --> 00:32:03.159
 mankind

00:32:03.159 --> 00:32:04.559
 can

00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:04.779
 be

00:32:04.779 --> 00:32:05.219
 trusted

00:32:05.219 --> 00:32:05.459
 to

00:32:05.459 --> 00:32:05.619
 get

00:32:05.619 --> 00:32:05.779
 us

00:32:05.779 --> 00:32:05.959
 to

00:32:05.959 --> 00:32:06.199
 heaven

00:32:06.199 --> 00:32:06.419
 but

00:32:06.419 --> 00:32:06.679
 not

00:32:06.679 --> 00:32:06.919
 give

00:32:06.919 --> 00:32:07.139
 us

00:32:07.139 --> 00:32:08.039
 adequate

00:32:08.039 --> 00:32:08.539
 counsel

00:32:08.539 --> 00:32:08.920
 on how

00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:09.079
 to

00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:09.359
 solve

00:32:09.359 --> 00:32:09.519
 the

00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:09.799
 problems

00:32:09.799 --> 00:32:10.000
 we

00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:10.159
 have

00:32:10.159 --> 00:32:10.299
 in

00:32:10.299 --> 00:32:10.579
 life

00:32:10.579 --> 00:32:11.659
 there's

00:32:11.659 --> 00:32:11.859
 something

00:32:11.859 --> 00:32:12.180
 wrong

00:32:12.180 --> 00:32:14.359
 and we

00:32:14.359 --> 00:32:14.639
 wonder

00:32:14.639 --> 00:32:14.920
 why

00:32:14.920 --> 00:32:15.139
 we're

00:32:15.139 --> 00:32:15.259
 in

00:32:15.259 --> 00:32:15.359
 the

00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:15.559
 mess

00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:15.720
 we

00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:16.019
 are

00:32:16.019 --> 00:32:19.000
 so

00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:19.879
 we

00:32:19.879 --> 00:32:20.980
 find

00:32:20.980 --> 00:32:21.279
 that

00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:21.659
 Jesus

00:32:21.659 --> 00:32:21.960
 was

00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:22.359
 quiet

00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:22.839
 and we

00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:23.159
 have

00:32:23.159 --> 00:32:23.339
 to

00:32:23.339 --> 00:32:23.779
 ask

00:32:23.779 --> 00:32:24.379
 why

00:32:24.379 --> 00:32:27.379
 well

00:32:27.379 --> 00:32:27.839
 first

00:32:27.839 --> 00:32:28.980
 I

00:32:28.980 --> 00:32:29.159
 want

00:32:29.159 --> 00:32:29.259
 you

00:32:29.259 --> 00:32:29.359
 to

00:32:29.359 --> 00:32:29.519
 know

00:32:29.519 --> 00:32:29.700
 that

00:32:29.700 --> 00:32:29.980
 Jesus

00:32:29.980 --> 00:32:30.399
 never

00:32:30.399 --> 00:32:30.779
 said

00:32:30.779 --> 00:32:31.279
 anything

00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:31.619
 that

00:32:31.619 --> 00:32:31.799
 his

00:32:31.799 --> 00:32:32.119
 father

00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:32.539
 didn't

00:32:32.539 --> 00:32:32.779
 tell

00:32:32.779 --> 00:32:32.960
 him

00:32:32.960 --> 00:32:33.139
 to

00:32:33.139 --> 00:32:33.659
 say

00:32:33.659 --> 00:32:36.359
 that's

00:32:36.359 --> 00:32:36.539
 pretty

00:32:36.539 --> 00:32:36.960
 striking

00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:37.240
 isn't

00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:37.839
 it

00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:38.659
 how

00:32:38.659 --> 00:32:38.839
 many

00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:38.980
 of

00:32:38.980 --> 00:32:39.000
 you

00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:39.079
 would

00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:39.259
 like

00:32:39.259 --> 00:32:39.399
 that

00:32:39.399 --> 00:32:39.500
 to

00:32:39.500 --> 00:32:39.619
 be

00:32:39.619 --> 00:32:39.819
 true

00:32:39.819 --> 00:32:39.959
 of

00:32:39.959 --> 00:32:40.279
 you

00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:47.220
 Jesus

00:32:47.220 --> 00:32:49.480
 never

00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:49.819
 said

00:32:49.819 --> 00:32:50.339
 anything

00:32:50.339 --> 00:32:51.759
 that

00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:52.119
 wasn't

00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:52.439
 according

00:32:52.439 --> 00:32:52.619
 to

00:32:52.619 --> 00:32:52.759
 his

00:32:52.759 --> 00:32:53.279
 father's

00:32:58.220 --> 00:32:59.480
 I do

00:32:59.480 --> 00:32:59.859
 nothing

00:32:59.859 --> 00:33:00.259
 of my

 own

00:33:00.459 --> 00:33:00.859
 authority

00:33:00.859 --> 00:33:01.459

 just

00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:02.419
 as

00:34:05.099 --> 00:34:05.319
 that

00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:05.559
 what

00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:05.779
 you

00:34:05.779 --> 00:34:06.139
 want

00:34:06.139 --> 00:34:06.319
 to

00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:06.659
 say

00:34:06.659 --> 00:34:07.039
 is

00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:08.000
 corroborated

00:34:08.000 --> 00:34:09.000
 supported

00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:10.239
 confirmed

00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:11.179
 in the

00:34:11.179 --> 00:34:11.539
 scriptures

00:34:11.539 --> 00:34:12.119
 right

00:34:12.119 --> 00:34:14.579
 I

00:34:14.579 --> 00:34:14.840
 can't

00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:15.099
 tell you

00:34:15.099 --> 00:34:15.440
 how many

00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:15.980
 harebrained

00:34:15.980 --> 00:34:16.360
 ideas

00:34:16.360 --> 00:34:16.619
 I've

00:34:16.619 --> 00:34:16.820
 had

00:34:16.820 --> 00:34:16.980
 that

00:34:16.980 --> 00:34:17.099
 I

00:34:17.099 --> 00:34:17.299
 thought

00:34:17.299 --> 00:34:17.480
 were

00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:17.679
 just

00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:17.900
 so

00:34:17.900 --> 00:34:18.179
 full

00:34:18.179 --> 00:34:18.320
 of

00:34:18.320 --> 00:34:18.739
 righteousness

00:34:18.739 --> 00:34:19.619
 and

00:34:19.619 --> 00:34:19.900
 later

00:34:19.900 --> 00:34:20.179
 on

00:34:20.179 --> 00:34:20.320
 I

00:34:20.320 --> 00:34:20.519
 thought

00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:20.659
 you

00:34:20.659 --> 00:34:20.799
 know

00:34:20.799 --> 00:34:21.000
 what

00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:21.179
 there

00:34:21.179 --> 00:34:21.340
 is

00:34:21.340 --> 00:34:21.500
 not

00:34:21.500 --> 00:34:21.679
 a

00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:21.960
 Bible

00:34:21.960 --> 00:34:22.259
 verse

00:34:22.259 --> 00:34:22.460
 that

00:34:22.460 --> 00:34:22.759
 comes

00:34:22.759 --> 00:34:23.360
 close

00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:25.579
 Jesus

00:34:25.579 --> 00:34:25.840
 said

00:34:25.840 --> 00:34:26.000
 I

00:34:26.000 --> 00:34:26.299
 never

00:34:26.299 --> 00:34:26.559
 said

00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:26.739
 a

00:34:26.739 --> 00:34:27.039
 thing

00:34:27.039 --> 00:34:28.639
 that

00:34:28.639 --> 00:34:29.119
 my father

00:34:29.119 --> 00:34:29.420
 didn't

00:34:29.420 --> 00:34:29.599
 want

00:34:29.599 --> 00:34:29.719
 me

00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:29.879
 to

00:34:29.879 --> 00:34:30.179
 say

00:34:30.179 --> 00:34:32.420
 and

00:34:32.420 --> 00:34:32.839
 we've

00:34:32.839 --> 00:34:32.960
 all

00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:33.099
 been

00:34:33.099 --> 00:34:33.279
 there

00:34:33.279 --> 00:34:33.539
 haven't

00:34:33.539 --> 00:34:33.759
 we

00:34:33.759 --> 00:34:36.019
 one of

00:34:36.019 --> 00:34:36.099
 the

00:34:36.099 --> 00:34:36.319
 things

00:34:36.319 --> 00:34:36.480
 that

00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:36.879
 happens

00:34:36.879 --> 00:34:37.440
 in

00:34:37.440 --> 00:34:37.699
 human

00:34:37.699 --> 00:34:38.019
 life

00:34:38.019 --> 00:34:38.179
 is

00:34:38.179 --> 00:34:39.059
 after

00:34:39.059 --> 00:34:39.299
 we

00:34:39.299 --> 00:34:39.579
 say

00:34:39.579 --> 00:34:40.019
 something

00:34:40.019 --> 00:34:40.239
 we

00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:40.599
 sometimes

00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:41.019
 particularly

00:34:41.019 --> 00:34:41.219
 in

00:34:41.219 --> 00:34:41.519
 believers

00:34:41.519 --> 00:34:41.900
 lives

00:34:41.900 --> 00:34:42.039
 I

00:34:42.039 --> 00:34:42.159
 want

00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:42.239
 you

00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:42.279
 to

00:34:42.279 --> 00:34:42.599
 understand

00:34:42.599 --> 00:34:42.900
 that

00:34:42.900 --> 00:34:43.659
 believers

00:34:43.659 --> 00:34:43.940
 have

00:34:43.940 --> 00:34:44.099
 this

00:34:44.099 --> 00:34:44.339
 little

00:34:44.339 --> 00:34:44.639
 alarm

00:34:44.639 --> 00:34:44.799
 bell

00:34:44.799 --> 00:34:44.960
 that

00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:45.159
 goes

00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:45.379
 off

00:34:45.379 --> 00:34:45.579
 am I

00:34:45.579 --> 00:34:45.859
 right

00:34:45.859 --> 00:34:46.259
 it's

00:34:46.259 --> 00:34:46.400
 like

00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:46.739
 oh

00:34:46.739 --> 00:34:47.299
 I'm

00:34:47.299 --> 00:34:47.480
 not

00:34:47.480 --> 00:34:47.659
 sure

00:34:47.659 --> 00:34:47.879
 about

00:34:47.879 --> 00:34:48.079
 that

00:34:48.079 --> 00:34:48.279
 one

00:34:48.280 --> 00:34:49.740
 and

00:34:49.740 --> 00:34:49.900
 then

00:34:49.900 --> 00:34:50.040
 you

00:34:50.040 --> 00:34:50.200
 get

00:34:50.200 --> 00:34:50.380
 an

00:34:50.380 --> 00:34:50.680
 argument

00:34:50.680 --> 00:34:50.980
 with

00:34:50.980 --> 00:34:51.440
 yourself

00:34:51.440 --> 00:34:53.440
 well

00:34:53.440 --> 00:34:53.540
 I

00:34:53.540 --> 00:34:53.720
 wouldn't

00:34:53.720 --> 00:34:53.840
 have

00:34:53.840 --> 00:34:53.980
 said

00:34:53.980 --> 00:34:54.140
 what

00:34:54.140 --> 00:34:54.280
 I

00:34:54.280 --> 00:34:54.460
 did

00:34:54.460 --> 00:34:54.620
 if

00:34:54.620 --> 00:34:54.740
 he

00:34:54.740 --> 00:34:54.960
 hadn't

00:34:54.960 --> 00:34:55.220
 said

00:34:55.220 --> 00:34:55.400
 what

00:34:55.400 --> 00:34:55.519
 he

00:34:55.519 --> 00:34:55.740
 did

00:34:55.740 --> 00:34:57.440
 well

00:34:57.440 --> 00:34:57.680
 it

00:34:57.680 --> 00:34:57.900
 needed

00:34:57.900 --> 00:34:58.019
 to

00:34:58.019 --> 00:34:58.120
 be

00:34:58.120 --> 00:34:58.320
 said

00:34:58.320 --> 00:34:58.420
 it

00:34:58.420 --> 00:34:58.560
 was

00:34:58.560 --> 00:34:58.860
 true

00:34:58.860 --> 00:35:00.180
 you

00:35:00.180 --> 00:35:00.360
 know

00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:01.920
 I

00:35:01.920 --> 00:35:02.320
 you

00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:02.620
 know

00:35:02.620 --> 00:35:02.740
 what

00:35:02.740 --> 00:35:02.860
 I'm

00:35:02.860 --> 00:35:03.140
 saying

00:35:03.140 --> 00:35:04.840
 here's

00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:05.140
 Jesus

00:35:05.140 --> 00:35:05.480
 I

00:35:05.480 --> 00:35:05.880
 never

00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:06.260
 have

00:35:06.260 --> 00:35:06.540
 said

00:35:06.540 --> 00:35:07.080
 anything

00:35:07.080 --> 00:35:07.420
 that

00:35:07.420 --> 00:35:07.580
 my

00:35:07.580 --> 00:35:08.000
 father

00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:08.600
 didn't

00:35:08.600 --> 00:35:09.000
 want

00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:09.180
 me

00:35:09.180 --> 00:35:09.460
 to

00:35:09.460 --> 00:35:09.720
 say

00:35:09.720 --> 00:35:11.160
 I

00:35:11.160 --> 00:35:12.100
 want

00:35:12.100 --> 00:35:12.680
 to

00:35:12.680 --> 00:35:13.080
 be

00:35:13.080 --> 00:35:14.080
 like

00:35:14.080 --> 00:35:14.640
 that

00:35:14.639 --> 00:35:21.739
 so

00:35:21.739 --> 00:35:21.960
 we

00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:22.139
 can

00:35:22.139 --> 00:35:22.559
 safely

00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:22.940
 say

00:35:22.940 --> 00:35:23.139
 if

00:35:23.139 --> 00:35:23.460
 Jesus

00:35:23.460 --> 00:35:23.739
 was

00:35:23.739 --> 00:35:24.099
 quiet

00:35:24.099 --> 00:35:24.480
 now

00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:24.659
 it

00:35:24.659 --> 00:35:24.819
 was

00:35:24.819 --> 00:35:25.299
 because

00:35:25.299 --> 00:35:27.460
 the

00:35:27.460 --> 00:35:27.920
 father

00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:29.159
 wanted

00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:29.480
 him

00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:30.039
 to

00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:30.179
 be

00:35:30.179 --> 00:35:30.500
 quiet

00:35:30.500 --> 00:35:34.619
 we

00:35:34.619 --> 00:35:34.779
 do

00:35:34.779 --> 00:35:35.019
 know

00:35:35.019 --> 00:35:35.460
 secondly

00:35:35.460 --> 00:35:35.900
 that

00:35:35.900 --> 00:35:36.359
 Jesus

00:35:36.359 --> 00:35:36.679
 was

00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:36.940
 quite

00:35:36.940 --> 00:35:37.299
 aware

00:35:37.299 --> 00:35:37.619
 that

00:35:37.619 --> 00:35:38.440
 what

00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:38.719
 he

00:35:38.719 --> 00:35:39.379
 could

00:35:39.379 --> 00:35:39.699
 say

00:35:39.699 --> 00:35:40.099
 wouldn't

00:35:40.099 --> 00:35:40.440
 change

00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:40.859
 people's

00:35:40.859 --> 00:35:41.099
 hearts

00:35:41.099 --> 00:35:41.579
 anyway

00:35:41.579 --> 00:35:43.139
 back

00:35:43.139 --> 00:35:43.359
 up

 you're

 go

00:35:46.160 --> 00:35:46.460
 back

 are

00:36:18.940 --> 00:36:19.440
 times

 quite

00:36:26.019 --> 00:36:26.360
 full

 end

00:36:30.160 --> 00:36:30.360
 of

00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:31.200
 persuasion

00:36:31.200 --> 00:36:33.900
 there's

00:36:33.900 --> 00:36:34.200
 a time

00:36:34.200 --> 00:36:34.440
 to be

00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:34.820
 quiet

00:36:34.820 --> 00:36:37.440
 and

00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:37.740
 Jesus

00:36:37.740 --> 00:36:38.440
 here

00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:38.680
 in the

00:36:38.680 --> 00:36:39.000
 text

00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:39.340
 made

00:36:39.340 --> 00:36:39.480
 it

00:36:39.480 --> 00:36:39.660
 clear

00:36:39.660 --> 00:36:39.860
 that

00:36:39.860 --> 00:36:40.040
 there

00:36:40.040 --> 00:36:40.240
 was

00:36:40.240 --> 00:36:40.380
 a

00:36:40.380 --> 00:36:40.580
 time

00:36:40.580 --> 00:36:40.720
 to

00:36:40.720 --> 00:36:40.860
 be

00:36:40.860 --> 00:36:41.260
 quiet

00:36:41.260 --> 00:36:43.760
 there's

00:36:43.760 --> 00:36:44.300
 something

00:36:44.300 --> 00:36:44.820
 even

00:36:44.820 --> 00:36:45.080
 more

00:36:45.080 --> 00:36:45.480
 important

00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:45.680
 than

00:36:45.680 --> 00:36:45.880
 those

00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:46.080
 two

00:36:46.080 --> 00:36:46.440
 things

00:36:46.440 --> 00:36:46.640
 though

00:36:46.640 --> 00:36:46.800
 and

00:36:46.800 --> 00:36:46.900
 I

00:36:46.900 --> 00:36:47.040
 want

00:36:47.040 --> 00:36:47.120
 you

00:36:47.120 --> 00:36:47.200
 to

00:36:47.200 --> 00:36:47.620
 understand

00:36:47.620 --> 00:36:47.880
 that

00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:48.460
 that

00:36:48.460 --> 00:36:48.880
 behind

00:36:48.880 --> 00:36:49.300
 this

00:36:49.300 --> 00:36:49.720
 business

00:36:49.720 --> 00:36:49.960
 of

00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:50.160
 being

00:36:50.160 --> 00:36:50.800
 quiet

00:36:50.800 --> 00:36:52.680
 in

00:36:52.680 --> 00:36:52.780
 a

00:36:52.780 --> 00:36:53.060
 very

00:36:53.060 --> 00:36:53.720
 unusual

00:36:53.720 --> 00:36:54.880
 and

00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:55.360
 challenging

00:36:55.360 --> 00:36:57.080
 time

00:36:57.080 --> 00:36:59.180
 is

00:36:59.180 --> 00:36:59.340
 the

00:36:59.340 --> 00:36:59.600
 fact

00:36:59.600 --> 00:36:59.840
 that

00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:00.220
 Jesus

00:37:00.220 --> 00:37:01.040
 submitted

00:37:01.040 --> 00:37:01.500
 to

00:37:01.500 --> 00:37:01.700
 the

00:37:01.700 --> 00:37:02.220
 plan

00:37:02.220 --> 00:37:03.240
 of

00:37:03.240 --> 00:37:03.720
 salvation

00:37:03.720 --> 00:37:04.300
 he

00:37:04.300 --> 00:37:04.580
 knew

00:37:04.580 --> 00:37:04.800
 what

00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:04.940
 was

00:37:04.940 --> 00:37:05.200
 going

00:37:05.200 --> 00:37:05.560
 on

00:37:05.560 --> 00:37:06.060
 he

00:37:06.060 --> 00:37:06.260
 knew

00:37:06.260 --> 00:37:06.480
 why

00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:06.640
 he

00:37:06.640 --> 00:37:06.780
 had

00:37:06.780 --> 00:37:07.120
 come

00:37:07.120 --> 00:37:07.820
 and

00:37:07.820 --> 00:37:08.040
 he

00:37:08.040 --> 00:37:08.400
 knew

00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:09.140
 what

00:37:09.140 --> 00:37:09.380
 needed

00:37:09.380 --> 00:37:09.620
 to be

00:37:09.620 --> 00:37:09.940
 done

00:37:09.940 --> 00:37:11.559
 and

00:37:11.559 --> 00:37:11.700
 so

00:37:11.700 --> 00:37:11.920
 I

00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:12.700
 ask

00:37:12.700 --> 00:37:12.900
 you

00:37:12.900 --> 00:37:13.119
 when

00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:13.260
 you

00:37:13.260 --> 00:37:13.579
 stop

00:37:13.579 --> 00:37:13.720
 and

00:37:13.720 --> 00:37:13.920
 think

00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:14.159
 about

00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:14.460
 Jesus

00:37:14.460 --> 00:37:14.760
 being

00:37:14.760 --> 00:37:15.179
 quiet

00:37:15.179 --> 00:37:15.380
 in

00:37:15.380 --> 00:37:15.599
 this

00:37:15.599 --> 00:37:16.200
 is

00:37:16.200 --> 00:37:16.380
 your

00:37:16.380 --> 00:37:16.740
 heart

00:37:16.740 --> 00:37:17.179
 drawn

00:37:17.179 --> 00:37:17.380
 to

00:37:17.380 --> 00:37:17.840
 consider

00:37:17.840 --> 00:37:18.139
 that

00:37:18.139 --> 00:37:18.659
 I

00:37:18.659 --> 00:37:18.840
 know

00:37:18.840 --> 00:37:19.059
 why

00:37:19.059 --> 00:37:19.179
 he

00:37:19.179 --> 00:37:19.320
 was

00:37:19.320 --> 00:37:19.720
 quiet

00:37:19.720 --> 00:37:21.659
 he

00:37:21.659 --> 00:37:21.840
 had

00:37:21.840 --> 00:37:22.019
 me

00:37:22.019 --> 00:37:22.159
 in

00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:22.480
 mind

00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:24.260
 he

00:37:24.260 --> 00:37:24.460
 was

00:37:24.460 --> 00:37:24.720
 thinking

00:37:24.720 --> 00:37:24.980
 about

00:37:24.980 --> 00:37:25.179
 the

00:37:25.179 --> 00:37:25.679
 cross

00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:27.300
 he

00:37:27.300 --> 00:37:27.460
 was

00:37:27.460 --> 00:37:27.700
 thinking

00:37:27.700 --> 00:37:27.940
 about

00:37:27.940 --> 00:37:28.179
 my

00:37:28.179 --> 00:37:28.639
 redemption

00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:30.320
 he

00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:30.500
 was

00:37:30.500 --> 00:37:30.780
 thinking

00:37:30.780 --> 00:37:31.119
 about

00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:31.559
 the

00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:31.940
 plan

00:37:31.940 --> 00:37:32.059
 of

00:37:32.059 --> 00:37:32.220
 the

00:37:32.220 --> 00:37:32.599
 father

00:37:32.599 --> 00:37:32.940
 for

00:37:32.940 --> 00:37:33.200
 all

00:37:33.200 --> 00:37:33.700
 of

00:37:33.700 --> 00:37:34.139
 eternity

00:37:34.139 --> 00:37:34.840
 to

00:37:34.840 --> 00:37:35.119
 bring

00:37:35.119 --> 00:37:35.480
 about

00:37:35.480 --> 00:37:35.880
 the

00:37:35.880 --> 00:37:36.460
 salvation

00:37:36.460 --> 00:37:36.700
 of

00:37:36.700 --> 00:37:37.340
 individuals

00:37:37.340 --> 00:37:37.940
 and

00:37:37.940 --> 00:37:38.200
 he

00:37:38.200 --> 00:37:38.619
 knew

00:37:38.619 --> 00:37:40.239
 how

00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:40.460
 this

00:37:40.460 --> 00:37:40.619
 was

00:37:40.619 --> 00:37:40.839
 supposed

00:37:40.839 --> 00:37:41.019
 to

00:37:41.019 --> 00:37:41.239
 play

00:37:41.239 --> 00:37:41.500
 out

00:37:41.500 --> 00:37:41.839
 and

00:37:41.839 --> 00:37:41.980
 there

00:37:41.980 --> 00:37:42.139
 was

00:37:42.139 --> 00:37:42.539
 no

00:37:42.539 --> 00:37:43.420
 reason

00:37:43.420 --> 00:37:44.299
 to

00:37:44.299 --> 00:37:45.219
 interfere

00:37:45.219 --> 00:37:48.119
 if

00:37:48.119 --> 00:37:48.219
 you

00:37:48.219 --> 00:37:48.400
 think

00:37:48.400 --> 00:37:48.659
 with me

00:37:48.659 --> 00:37:48.920
 back

00:37:48.920 --> 00:37:49.099
 through

00:37:49.099 --> 00:37:49.319
 the

00:37:49.319 --> 00:37:49.759
 history

00:37:49.759 --> 00:37:51.000
 of

00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:51.299
 scripture

00:37:51.299 --> 00:37:51.719
 and

00:37:51.719 --> 00:37:52.139
 I

00:37:52.139 --> 00:37:53.239
 take

00:37:53.239 --> 00:37:53.380
 you

00:37:53.380 --> 00:37:53.639
 back

00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:53.880
 just

00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:54.119
 for a

 don't

00:38:11.559 --> 00:38:11.719
 know

00:38:12.019 --> 00:38:12.279
 fact

00:38:12.279 --> 00:38:12.459
 what

00:38:13.419 --> 00:38:13.699
 because

00:38:13.699 --> 00:38:13.899
 it

00:38:13.899 --> 00:38:14.179

00:40:27.500 --> 00:40:27.760
 way to

 the end

00:40:28.640 --> 00:40:29.019

00:40:29.019 --> 00:40:29.920
 do that

00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:37.400
 surely he

00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:37.840
 has borne

00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:38.800
 our griefs

00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:39.220
 and carried

00:40:39.220 --> 00:40:39.920
 our sorrows

00:40:39.920 --> 00:40:40.680
 yet we

00:40:40.680 --> 00:40:41.140
 esteemed

00:40:41.140 --> 00:40:41.340
 him

00:40:41.340 --> 00:40:41.800
 stricken

00:40:41.800 --> 00:40:42.280
 smitten

00:40:42.280 --> 00:40:42.980
 by God

00:40:42.980 --> 00:40:43.720
 and afflicted

00:40:43.720 --> 00:40:45.240
 he was

00:40:45.240 --> 00:40:45.980
 pierced

00:40:45.980 --> 00:40:47.660
 for our

00:40:47.660 --> 00:40:48.420
 transgressions

00:40:48.420 --> 00:40:49.080
 he was crushed

00:40:49.080 --> 00:40:49.440
 for our

00:40:49.440 --> 00:40:49.920
 iniquities

00:40:49.920 --> 00:40:50.860
 upon him

00:40:50.860 --> 00:40:51.200
 was the

00:40:51.200 --> 00:40:51.860
 chastisement

00:40:51.860 --> 00:40:52.380
 that brought

00:40:52.380 --> 00:40:52.880
 us peace

00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:53.620
 and with

00:40:53.620 --> 00:40:54.140
 his wounds

00:40:54.140 --> 00:40:54.500
 we are

00:40:54.500 --> 00:40:54.960
 healed

00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:56.760
 all we

00:40:56.760 --> 00:40:57.220
 like sheep

00:40:57.220 --> 00:40:57.600
 have gone

00:40:57.600 --> 00:40:58.040
 astray

00:40:58.040 --> 00:40:58.380
 we were

00:40:58.380 --> 00:40:58.640
 turned

00:40:58.640 --> 00:40:59.040
 everyone

00:40:59.040 --> 00:40:59.380
 to his

00:40:59.380 --> 00:40:59.560
 own

00:40:59.560 --> 00:40:59.860
 way

00:40:59.860 --> 00:41:01.220
 and the

00:41:01.220 --> 00:41:01.380
 Lord

00:41:01.380 --> 00:41:01.820
 has laid

00:41:01.820 --> 00:41:02.180
 on him

00:41:02.180 --> 00:41:02.340
 the

00:41:02.340 --> 00:41:02.800
 iniquity

00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:03.100
 of us

00:41:03.100 --> 00:41:03.420
 all

00:41:03.420 --> 00:41:04.840
 he was

00:41:04.840 --> 00:41:05.280
 oppressed

00:41:05.280 --> 00:41:06.519
 and he

00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:07.180
 was afflicted

00:41:07.180 --> 00:41:07.420
 yet he

00:41:07.420 --> 00:41:07.639
 opened

00:41:07.639 --> 00:41:08.000
 not his

00:41:08.000 --> 00:41:08.380
 mouth

00:41:08.380 --> 00:41:09.800
 like a

00:41:09.800 --> 00:41:10.180
 lamb

00:41:10.180 --> 00:41:10.780
 that was

00:41:10.780 --> 00:41:11.220
 led

00:41:11.220 --> 00:41:12.099
 to the

00:41:12.099 --> 00:41:12.480
 slaughter

00:41:12.480 --> 00:41:13.500
 and like

00:41:13.500 --> 00:41:14.019
 a sheep

00:41:14.019 --> 00:41:14.840
 that before

00:41:14.840 --> 00:41:15.579
 it shears

00:41:15.579 --> 00:41:16.800
 is silent

00:41:16.800 --> 00:41:18.960
 so he

00:41:18.960 --> 00:41:19.320
 opened

00:41:19.320 --> 00:41:20.119
 not

00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:20.780
 his

00:41:20.780 --> 00:41:21.180
 mouth

00:41:21.180 --> 00:41:24.460
 probably

00:41:24.460 --> 00:41:24.760
 one of

00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:25.180
 the most

00:41:25.180 --> 00:41:26.099
 striking

00:41:26.099 --> 00:41:26.639
 portions

00:41:26.639 --> 00:41:27.500
 of Isaiah

00:41:27.500 --> 00:41:28.400
 chapter 53

00:41:28.400 --> 00:41:28.860
 is verse

00:41:28.860 --> 00:41:29.180
 10

00:41:29.180 --> 00:41:33.240
 I think

00:41:33.239 --> 00:41:33.459
 in the

00:41:33.459 --> 00:41:33.619
 King

00:41:33.619 --> 00:41:33.959
 James

00:41:33.959 --> 00:41:34.359
 it says

00:41:34.359 --> 00:41:35.259
 for it

00:41:35.259 --> 00:41:35.739
 pleased

00:41:35.739 --> 00:41:36.039
 the

00:41:36.039 --> 00:41:36.319
 Lord

00:41:36.319 --> 00:41:36.659
 to

00:41:36.659 --> 00:41:37.179
 bruise

00:41:37.179 --> 00:41:37.539
 him

00:41:37.539 --> 00:41:40.919
 I

00:41:40.919 --> 00:41:42.439
 think

00:41:42.439 --> 00:41:42.679
 that

00:41:42.679 --> 00:41:43.799
 God

00:41:43.799 --> 00:41:44.000
 the

00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:44.339
 father

00:41:44.339 --> 00:41:44.579
 was

00:41:44.579 --> 00:41:44.939
 willing

00:41:44.939 --> 00:41:46.059
 that

00:41:46.059 --> 00:41:46.259
 his

00:41:46.259 --> 00:41:46.519
 son

00:41:46.519 --> 00:41:46.759
 should

00:41:46.759 --> 00:41:47.179
 die

00:41:47.179 --> 00:41:48.539
 for me

00:41:48.539 --> 00:41:52.379
 it's

00:41:52.379 --> 00:41:52.819
 overwhelming

00:41:52.820 --> 00:41:55.120
 so how

00:41:55.120 --> 00:41:55.500
 does that

00:41:55.500 --> 00:41:55.860
 fit

00:41:55.860 --> 00:41:56.380
 today

00:41:56.380 --> 00:41:58.840
 well you're

00:41:58.840 --> 00:41:59.460
 here this

00:41:59.460 --> 00:42:00.000
 morning as

00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:00.580
 one who

00:42:00.580 --> 00:42:01.620
 knows the

00:42:01.620 --> 00:42:02.180
 Lord Jesus

00:42:02.180 --> 00:42:03.059
 and your

00:42:03.059 --> 00:42:03.700
 heart just

00:42:03.700 --> 00:42:04.140
 kind of

00:42:04.140 --> 00:42:04.960
 thrills when

00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:05.440
 you stop

00:42:05.440 --> 00:42:05.820
 and think

00:42:05.820 --> 00:42:06.960
 that's my

00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:07.539
 savior

00:42:07.539 --> 00:42:08.800
 who loves

00:42:08.800 --> 00:42:09.200
 me

00:42:09.200 --> 00:42:11.200
 and someday

00:42:11.200 --> 00:42:11.820
 I'm going to

00:42:11.820 --> 00:42:12.600
 see him face

00:42:12.600 --> 00:42:13.220
 to face

00:42:13.220 --> 00:42:16.539
 there may be

00:42:16.539 --> 00:42:17.019
 some of you

00:42:17.019 --> 00:42:17.920
 that this

00:42:17.920 --> 00:42:18.420
 morning you

00:42:18.420 --> 00:42:18.760
 have to

00:42:18.760 --> 00:42:19.140
 admit

00:42:19.139 --> 00:42:20.440
 like in

00:42:20.440 --> 00:42:21.619
 revelation

00:42:21.619 --> 00:42:22.159
 where it

00:42:22.159 --> 00:42:22.559
 says

00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:26.059
 to the

00:42:26.059 --> 00:42:26.440
 church at

00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:26.799
 Ephesus

00:42:26.799 --> 00:42:28.619
 you've lost

00:42:28.619 --> 00:42:29.400
 your first

00:42:29.400 --> 00:42:29.900
 love

00:42:29.900 --> 00:42:31.099
 and this

00:42:31.099 --> 00:42:31.599
 morning the

00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:31.980
 truth of

00:42:31.980 --> 00:42:32.199
 the matter

00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:32.759
 is your

00:42:32.759 --> 00:42:33.379
 heart is

00:42:33.379 --> 00:42:34.719
 just

00:42:34.719 --> 00:42:35.219
 indifferent

00:42:35.219 --> 00:42:37.739
 to the

00:42:37.739 --> 00:42:38.359
 sweetness of

00:42:38.359 --> 00:42:38.859
 the savior

00:42:38.859 --> 00:42:39.859
 that in

00:42:39.859 --> 00:42:40.359
 eternity

00:42:40.359 --> 00:42:41.259
 will occupy

00:42:41.259 --> 00:42:42.259
 all of

00:42:42.259 --> 00:42:42.980
 your thinking

00:42:42.980 --> 00:42:43.739
 and your

00:42:43.739 --> 00:42:44.279
 joy

00:42:44.279 --> 00:42:45.299
 and you're

00:42:45.299 --> 00:42:45.739
 sitting here

00:42:45.739 --> 00:42:46.119
 saying you

00:42:46.119 --> 00:42:46.420
 know there's

00:42:46.420 --> 00:42:46.940
 something wrong

00:42:46.940 --> 00:42:47.239
 with me

00:42:47.239 --> 00:42:47.579
 and I don't

00:42:47.579 --> 00:42:47.879
 want to

00:42:47.879 --> 00:42:48.519
 stay this

00:42:51.019 --> 00:42:51.539
 a remedy

00:42:51.539 --> 00:42:57.840
 cry out to

00:42:57.840 --> 00:42:58.119
 the Lord

00:42:58.119 --> 00:42:58.420
 and say

00:42:58.420 --> 00:42:58.880
 look do

00:42:58.880 --> 00:42:59.519
 something about

00:42:59.519 --> 00:43:00.200
 this stone

00:43:00.200 --> 00:43:00.960
 cold heart

00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:02.380
 you know I

00:43:02.380 --> 00:43:03.119
 can mock

00:43:03.119 --> 00:43:03.700
 a movie

00:43:03.700 --> 00:43:04.340
 where someone

00:43:04.340 --> 00:43:04.960
 stands up

00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:05.340
 and says

00:43:05.340 --> 00:43:06.019
 mirror mirror

00:43:06.019 --> 00:43:06.579
 on the wall

 who's the

00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:07.440
 fairest of

00:43:07.440 --> 00:43:07.780
 them all

00:43:07.780 --> 00:43:08.539
 but I am

 that sin

00:43:09.780 --> 00:43:10.920
 and I

00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:11.340
 wanted to

00:43:11.340 --> 00:43:11.820
 change

00:43:11.820 --> 00:43:13.680
 I can tell

 be some

00:43:25.779 --> 00:43:26.299
 the bitterness

00:43:26.299 --> 00:43:27.139
 is of being

 unhappy

00:43:29.299 --> 00:43:30.579
 insecure

00:43:30.579 --> 00:43:31.579
 guilt ridden

00:43:31.579 --> 00:43:32.579
 person and

 there is no

00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:34.019
 remedy for

00:43:34.019 --> 00:43:34.839
 your soul

00:43:34.839 --> 00:43:37.719
 except in

00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:38.159
 Jesus

 let's close

 word

00:43:45.940 --> 00:43:46.920

00:43:46.920 --> 00:43:47.960
 on fertile

00:43:47.960 --> 00:43:48.539
 soil

00:43:48.539 --> 00:43:50.359
 to the

00:43:50.359 --> 00:43:50.759
 glory

00:43:50.759 --> 00:43:51.699
 of Christ

00:43:51.699 --> 00:43:53.119
 amen
