00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:14.280
 In the following directive, I have no praise for you.

00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:17.199
 For your meeting, do more harm than good.

00:00:18.179 --> 00:00:23.539
 In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions

00:00:23.539 --> 00:00:24.120
 among you.

00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:27.100
 And to some extent, I believe it.

00:00:27.100 --> 00:00:32.960
 No doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God's approval.

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:37.219
 When you come together, it is not the Lord's supper you eat.

00:00:38.219 --> 00:00:44.640
 For as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else.

00:00:45.500 --> 00:00:48.500
 One remains hungry, other gets drunk.

00:00:49.740 --> 00:00:52.180
 Don't you have homes to eat and drink in?

00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:57.060
 Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing?

00:00:57.899 --> 00:00:59.280
 What shall I say to you?

00:01:00.460 --> 00:01:01.920
 Shall I praise you for this?

00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:03.439
 Certainly not.

00:01:04.299 --> 00:01:08.579
 For I receive from the Lord what I also pass on to you.

00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:16.599
 The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he

00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:17.379
 broke it and said,

00:01:17.379 --> 00:01:20.719
 This is my body, which is for you.

00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:22.739
 Do this in remembrance of me.

00:01:23.780 --> 00:01:28.359
 In the same way, after supper, he took the cup, saying,

00:01:29.500 --> 00:01:32.359
 This cup is the new covenant in my blood.

00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:38.259
 Do this whenever you drink it in remembrance of me.

00:01:38.260 --> 00:01:45.660
 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

00:01:45.659 --> 00:01:56.899
 Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in the unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.

00:01:56.900 --> 00:02:04.180
 A man ought to examine himself before he eats the bread and drinks of the cup.

00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:12.020
 For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizes the body of the Lord, eats and drinks judgment on himself.

00:02:12.020 --> 00:02:19.260
 This is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.

00:02:20.340 --> 00:02:24.040
 But if we judge ourselves, we will not come under judgment.

00:02:25.060 --> 00:02:31.300
 When we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.

00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:37.140
 So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for each other.

00:02:37.139 --> 00:02:44.659
 If anyone is hungry, he shall eat at home, so that when you meet together, it may not result in judgment.

00:02:45.739 --> 00:02:49.619
 And when I come, I will further directions.

00:03:07.139 --> 00:03:17.779
 Well, please keep your Bibles open at 1 Corinthians 11.

00:03:18.839 --> 00:03:22.359
 And we're going to be looking at verses 17 to 34.

00:03:33.739 --> 00:03:37.079
 And let's pray together.

00:03:37.139 --> 00:03:54.739
 Our Father God, as we celebrate, as we remember together the death of the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:03:55.739 --> 00:04:06.419
 we ask that you would use these words that we look at together to prepare our hearts.

00:04:07.139 --> 00:04:28.800
 So that we may benefit richly from the grace and mercy, forgiveness and hope that flows from this simple meal of remembering Christ's death.

00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:36.220
 So please help us all as we gather and remember.

00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:40.780
 In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.

00:04:40.780 --> 00:04:40.860
 Amen.

00:04:40.860 --> 00:04:41.860
 Amen.

00:04:41.860 --> 00:04:42.860
 Amen.

00:04:42.860 --> 00:04:43.860
 Amen.

00:04:43.860 --> 00:04:44.860
 Amen.

00:04:44.860 --> 00:04:45.860
 Amen.

00:04:45.860 --> 00:04:51.460
 Well, when I was growing up in our family home, we had a rule when it came to mealtimes.

00:04:52.460 --> 00:04:54.319
 You might have the same rule even today.

00:04:55.460 --> 00:04:56.600
 The rule was this.

00:04:56.600 --> 00:05:00.820
 We were not allowed to start eating until everyone was served.

00:05:01.820 --> 00:05:07.160
 In fact, we weren't even allowed to leave the table until everybody had finished.

00:05:08.520 --> 00:05:14.560
 Sometimes, I think, in our house, people deliberately took their time so that everybody had to wait.

00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:23.180
 And to a hungry teenager like me who saw mealtime as simply nothing more than a quick refueling stop, it was ridiculous.

00:05:23.660 --> 00:05:25.280
 It was a stupid rule.

00:05:27.060 --> 00:05:31.560
 However, over time, I began to see the reasoning of my parents.

00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:37.500
 For mealtime is much more than just eating food.

00:05:39.139 --> 00:05:40.600
 It's family time.

00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:48.600
 It's about sharing, talking, growing in the family relationship.

00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:57.040
 Now, it seems that the church in Corinth were treating the Lord's Supper as just another meal.

00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:05.860
 At best, it was a quick, personal reflection before God, which had nothing to do with their relationships to each other.

00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:13.540
 So, in verse 17, Paul responds to something he's heard about in the church.

00:06:14.140 --> 00:06:21.920
 In the following directives, I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good.

00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:27.520
 Their table manners at the Lord's Supper were dreadful.

00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:30.580
 In fact, their behaviour was so bad.

00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:31.699
 Look at verse 20.

00:06:32.960 --> 00:06:38.960
 When you come together, it's not the Lord's Supper that you eat.

00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.000
 Yes, they were eating the bread and drinking the wine.

00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:48.259
 But really, it had nothing to do with the death of the Lord Jesus.

00:06:48.259 --> 00:06:57.839
 You see, when God saves us, he saves us into his church.

00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:02.699
 God not only forgives us, he welcomes us into his family.

00:07:03.259 --> 00:07:09.279
 And as God's family, we are to gather together as one people.

00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:11.420
 So, look at verse 18.

00:07:11.420 --> 00:07:13.120
 He says,

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:18.480
 In the first place, I hear that when you come together as church.

00:07:19.640 --> 00:07:21.280
 Or verse 33.

00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:29.560
 So then, my brothers and sisters, when you come together to eat.

00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:35.060
 You see, the church is not a collection of isolated individuals.

00:07:35.060 --> 00:07:42.199
 We are the forgiven family of God who gather together.

00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.040
 That's why we're all here right now.

00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.920
 That's why we've made it our priority to be here.

00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:59.300
 And one of the central things we do together as family is to share in this simple meal that is set out before us today.

00:07:59.740 --> 00:08:01.480
 The Lord's Supper.

00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:12.939
 It's not a personal refueling exercise where we come individually to get a little bit more grace and a bit of forgiveness until the next time.

00:08:13.620 --> 00:08:22.939
 No, this is a deeply intimate and communal meal where we gather together as family.

00:08:22.939 --> 00:08:33.200
 So, what should happen when we gather to celebrate the Lord's Supper together?

00:08:34.220 --> 00:08:37.059
 Well, three big things we're going to look at.

00:08:38.580 --> 00:08:50.980
 First, as we gather round the Lord's Supper, we need to root out any division in Christ's body.

00:08:50.980 --> 00:08:56.240
 Root out any division in Christ's body.

00:08:56.340 --> 00:08:57.259
 Look at verse 18.

00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:06.120
 In the first place, I hear that when you come together as church, there are divisions among you.

00:09:07.340 --> 00:09:09.539
 And to some extent, I believe it.

00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:16.039
 Instead of being united as one, the church is breaking and falling apart.

00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:22.399
 No doubt there has to be difference among you to show which of you have God's approval.

00:09:23.500 --> 00:09:28.360
 Sadly, he's saying, there's always going to be some kind of division.

00:09:29.740 --> 00:09:34.819
 Because, well, God's family is made up of sinners like you and me.

00:09:35.299 --> 00:09:36.219
 Messy people.

00:09:37.079 --> 00:09:40.240
 And we do, from time to time, fall out.

00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:43.700
 But that is not an excuse.

00:09:44.779 --> 00:09:51.620
 The desire should always be to root out any division in Christ's body, the church.

00:09:53.159 --> 00:10:00.740
 And sadly, the division was most evident when they gathered to celebrate the Lord's Supper.

00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:01.980
 Verse 20.

00:10:01.980 --> 00:10:07.139
 So when you come together, it's not the Lord's Supper you eat.

00:10:07.940 --> 00:10:12.659
 For as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else.

00:10:13.420 --> 00:10:14.800
 One remains hungry.

00:10:15.680 --> 00:10:18.399
 And another one gets drunk.

00:10:20.259 --> 00:10:24.720
 Now, to understand this, we've got to have two things in mind.

00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:31.139
 But when the church gathered in the first century to celebrate the Lord's Supper,

00:10:31.300 --> 00:10:34.279
 it was usually part of a much bigger meal,

00:10:34.899 --> 00:10:36.740
 where they would have a lot more food,

00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:39.500
 and they would share that with one another.

00:10:40.460 --> 00:10:46.600
 The other thing we also need to remember is that Sunday was just like any other working day.

00:10:47.700 --> 00:10:49.800
 For us, it tends to be a holiday.

00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:51.580
 We don't necessarily go to work.

00:10:51.580 --> 00:10:56.000
 So for those who were in the church and had very little,

00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:57.379
 those who weren't wealthy,

00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:00.740
 well, you see, they had to go off to work on a Sunday.

00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:04.120
 For others who had a bit more wealth,

00:11:05.259 --> 00:11:08.200
 well, they could afford not to go to work.

00:11:08.420 --> 00:11:09.920
 They could take the day off.

00:11:10.060 --> 00:11:12.720
 Or perhaps they could even finish up a little bit early.

00:11:13.660 --> 00:11:17.440
 So we can begin to see what was happening as the church gathered.

00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:20.180
 The wealthy who didn't have to go to work,

00:11:20.179 --> 00:11:22.879
 well, they all gathered together for their meal.

00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:25.500
 Some nice roast lamb,

00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:27.799
 some nice crusty bread,

00:11:28.139 --> 00:11:30.620
 and a few bottles of fine wine.

00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:32.539
 There they sat,

00:11:32.739 --> 00:11:34.599
 feasting away and enjoying themselves.

00:11:35.379 --> 00:11:37.779
 Then we could imagine throughout the evening,

00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:39.659
 after a hard day's work,

00:11:39.779 --> 00:11:40.699
 the less well-off,

00:11:40.899 --> 00:11:42.379
 well, they would then arrive.

00:11:42.379 --> 00:11:43.939
 And by this time,

00:11:44.019 --> 00:11:45.080
 all the food was gone

00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:48.919
 and half the congregation were drunk.

00:11:50.259 --> 00:11:51.899
 At some stage in the meal,

00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:53.860
 a leader somewhere along the line

00:11:53.860 --> 00:11:56.419
 had given thanks to God for the bread and for the wine

00:11:56.419 --> 00:11:59.539
 and then promptly finished off the bottle.

00:11:59.539 --> 00:12:03.319
 It was a mess.

00:12:04.819 --> 00:12:05.819
 Verse 22.

00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:10.079
 Don't you have homes to eat and drink in?

00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:13.839
 Or do you despise the church of God

00:12:13.839 --> 00:12:15.939
 and humiliate those who have nothing?

00:12:18.019 --> 00:12:19.759
 What shall I say to you?

00:12:21.339 --> 00:12:22.939
 Shall I praise you for this?

00:12:24.899 --> 00:12:25.959
 Certainly not.

00:12:25.960 --> 00:12:31.840
 Now, we might be sitting comfortably this morning

00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:33.360
 and think,

00:12:33.740 --> 00:12:37.180
 that is an absolute disgrace.

00:12:38.460 --> 00:12:41.120
 I would never do anything like that.

00:12:42.780 --> 00:12:45.000
 Well, let's just think about it for a minute.

00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:47.759
 Generally speaking,

00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:50.980
 we are able to gather at the same time.

00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:54.840
 Most of us do have a Sunday off

00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:56.879
 where we don't have to go to our normal work

00:12:56.879 --> 00:12:58.220
 so we can gather together.

00:12:59.500 --> 00:13:00.540
 We all sit,

00:13:00.680 --> 00:13:01.800
 as we are right now,

00:13:01.820 --> 00:13:03.300
 in a very dignified way,

00:13:03.980 --> 00:13:06.680
 ready to come and share in the Lord's Supper together.

00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:09.180
 The perfect family meal.

00:13:11.680 --> 00:13:12.560
 Or is it?

00:13:14.500 --> 00:13:15.080
 You see,

00:13:15.160 --> 00:13:16.100
 we share in the meal,

00:13:16.860 --> 00:13:18.440
 but as soon as it's finished,

00:13:18.540 --> 00:13:19.519
 we're out the door

00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:22.419
 and we forget each other.

00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:27.039
 Oh, we might invite somebody back to the house for lunch,

00:13:27.980 --> 00:13:30.539
 but we only invite those that we like.

00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:33.559
 We certainly don't invite them

00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:34.799
 because, well,

00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:36.159
 they're different.

00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:37.439
 And socially,

00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:38.279
 if they did come,

00:13:38.340 --> 00:13:38.980
 it would be just,

00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:39.620
 you know,

00:13:39.659 --> 00:13:40.600
 a little bit awkward.

00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.500
 We all take the bread and the wine together,

00:13:45.620 --> 00:13:46.779
 but as soon as we get home,

00:13:46.779 --> 00:13:49.240
 the gossip starts.

00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:52.740
 Can't stand the way they do that.

00:13:54.819 --> 00:13:56.519
 Oh, we ask God for forgiveness

00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:58.139
 of all of our sins,

00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:01.620
 but we hold grudges

00:14:01.620 --> 00:14:03.600
 and nurse resentment.

00:14:06.500 --> 00:14:07.899
 We humbly remember

00:14:07.899 --> 00:14:09.480
 that Christ died for me,

00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:12.120
 but we also remember

00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:13.240
 their sin

00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:14.899
 and what she said

00:14:14.899 --> 00:14:16.139
 and what he did.

00:14:18.100 --> 00:14:19.820
 We ask God for grace

00:14:19.820 --> 00:14:21.259
 and accept his mercy,

00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.139
 but see no reason

00:14:24.139 --> 00:14:25.299
 why we should bother

00:14:25.299 --> 00:14:26.180
 to help somebody

00:14:26.180 --> 00:14:26.940
 who's struggling.

00:14:29.419 --> 00:14:30.039
 Oh, we're not,

00:14:30.060 --> 00:14:30.740
 we're not like

00:14:30.740 --> 00:14:32.000
 that Corinthian church

00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:32.899
 in the first century.

00:14:33.180 --> 00:14:34.340
 We'd never turn up

00:14:34.340 --> 00:14:35.259
 on a Sunday morning

00:14:35.259 --> 00:14:35.899
 drunk

00:14:35.899 --> 00:14:37.460
 and celebrate

00:14:37.460 --> 00:14:38.360
 in the Lord's Supper.

00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:39.879
 No,

00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:40.240
 no,

00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:41.519
 we're much too dignified

00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:41.980
 for that.

00:14:41.980 --> 00:14:42.879
 we share

00:14:42.879 --> 00:14:43.340
 in

00:14:43.340 --> 00:14:45.500
 the perfect family meal.

00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:49.659
 Or do we?

00:14:51.720 --> 00:14:53.100
 Look at verse 22.

00:14:55.039 --> 00:14:56.360
 Do you despise

00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:58.300
 the church of God

00:14:58.300 --> 00:15:00.039
 with our behaviors?

00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:04.700
 Shall I praise you

00:15:04.700 --> 00:15:06.560
 for division

00:15:06.560 --> 00:15:07.920
 that might exist?

00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:12.079
 for pushing

00:15:12.079 --> 00:15:13.679
 certain people out

00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:15.659
 and not letting

00:15:15.659 --> 00:15:17.079
 other people in?

00:15:18.939 --> 00:15:20.199
 Certainly not.

00:15:22.699 --> 00:15:23.379
 Root out

00:15:23.379 --> 00:15:24.919
 any hint

00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:27.599
 of sinful division

00:15:27.599 --> 00:15:28.519
 that exists

00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:31.099
 within Christ's body.

00:15:31.100 --> 00:15:35.639
 the second thing.

00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:39.759
 We must keep central

00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:41.620
 the remembering

00:15:41.620 --> 00:15:43.399
 of Christ's death.

00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:45.700
 As we come to celebrate

00:15:45.700 --> 00:15:46.540
 the Lord's Supper,

00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:48.019
 keep central

00:15:48.019 --> 00:15:48.680
 the remembering

00:15:48.680 --> 00:15:49.620
 of Christ's death.

00:15:49.700 --> 00:15:50.420
 Verse 23.

00:15:52.580 --> 00:15:53.340
 So Paul says,

00:15:53.420 --> 00:15:54.920
 I received from the Lord

00:15:54.920 --> 00:15:56.600
 what I also

00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:58.200
 passed on to you.

00:15:58.200 --> 00:15:59.759
 You see,

00:15:59.820 --> 00:16:00.560
 the celebration

00:16:00.560 --> 00:16:01.580
 of the Lord's Supper

00:16:01.580 --> 00:16:03.480
 is to be practiced

00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:05.280
 by every church

00:16:05.280 --> 00:16:07.280
 in every age.

00:16:07.660 --> 00:16:08.860
 It's the Lord's way

00:16:08.860 --> 00:16:09.700
 of making sure

00:16:09.700 --> 00:16:11.180
 that we do not forget

00:16:11.180 --> 00:16:12.200
 the death of Christ,

00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:12.980
 but keep it

00:16:12.980 --> 00:16:14.360
 at the very center

00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:16.180
 of our lives.

00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:18.420
 Verse 26.

00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:20.160
 For whenever you eat

00:16:20.160 --> 00:16:20.940
 this bread

00:16:20.940 --> 00:16:22.540
 and drink this cup,

00:16:22.900 --> 00:16:23.700
 you proclaim

00:16:23.700 --> 00:16:24.960
 the Lord's death

00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:27.080
 until he comes.

00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:31.820
 Now there's two things

00:16:31.820 --> 00:16:33.440
 the death of Jesus

00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:35.180
 should teach us

00:16:35.180 --> 00:16:36.600
 in the context

00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:38.180
 of this passage.

00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:40.840
 The first is this.

00:16:41.060 --> 00:16:42.020
 This meal

00:16:42.020 --> 00:16:44.360
 reminds us

00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:45.660
 that we are united

00:16:45.660 --> 00:16:47.420
 to God

00:16:47.420 --> 00:16:49.260
 through the death

00:16:49.260 --> 00:16:50.300
 of Christ.

00:16:50.299 --> 00:16:51.179
 We are united

00:16:51.179 --> 00:16:51.779
 to God

00:16:51.779 --> 00:16:52.919
 through the death

00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:53.500
 of Christ.

00:16:54.539 --> 00:16:56.019
 Look at verse 23 again.

00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:57.039
 The Lord Jesus,

00:16:58.299 --> 00:16:59.099
 on the night

00:16:59.099 --> 00:17:00.099
 he was betrayed,

00:17:01.679 --> 00:17:03.159
 picture the scene,

00:17:04.379 --> 00:17:05.559
 took bread

00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:08.119
 and when he had

00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:08.839
 given thanks

00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:10.279
 he broke it

00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:11.500
 and said,

00:17:12.619 --> 00:17:15.220
 this is my body

00:17:15.220 --> 00:17:18.419
 which is for you.

00:17:18.420 --> 00:17:20.480
 do this

00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:21.800
 in remembrance

00:17:21.800 --> 00:17:22.400
 of me.

00:17:23.120 --> 00:17:23.800
 The bread

00:17:23.800 --> 00:17:24.800
 that we have here

00:17:24.800 --> 00:17:25.880
 on this table

00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:28.240
 is a picture

00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:29.460
 of the physical

00:17:29.460 --> 00:17:31.120
 body of Christ

00:17:31.120 --> 00:17:33.080
 who was torn apart

00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:34.300
 for you

00:17:34.300 --> 00:17:35.600
 and for me

00:17:35.600 --> 00:17:36.779
 when he died

00:17:36.779 --> 00:17:37.600
 on the cross.

00:17:38.660 --> 00:17:40.160
 For when Jesus died

00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:41.860
 he took my sin

00:17:41.860 --> 00:17:43.039
 and your sin

00:17:43.039 --> 00:17:43.580
 on himself.

00:17:43.800 --> 00:17:44.860
 He was punished.

00:17:44.859 --> 00:17:46.259
 He was broken

00:17:46.259 --> 00:17:48.379
 for us

00:17:48.379 --> 00:17:50.619
 so that we

00:17:50.619 --> 00:17:51.500
 could be forgiven,

00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:53.919
 reconciled

00:17:53.919 --> 00:17:54.759
 and united

00:17:54.759 --> 00:17:56.319
 to our Father God.

00:17:57.259 --> 00:17:58.479
 Because of the

00:17:58.479 --> 00:17:59.259
 death of Christ

00:17:59.259 --> 00:18:00.439
 we can now

00:18:00.439 --> 00:18:01.039
 enjoy

00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:02.879
 oneness with God.

00:18:03.379 --> 00:18:04.279
 No longer

00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:05.479
 in separation

00:18:05.479 --> 00:18:07.679
 but united

00:18:07.679 --> 00:18:09.119
 with God

00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:10.599
 through the death

00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:11.699
 of Jesus.

00:18:11.700 --> 00:18:15.440
 the second thing

00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:16.519
 it should teach us

00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:19.140
 is that we are

00:18:19.140 --> 00:18:19.759
 united

00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:21.740
 to each other

00:18:21.740 --> 00:18:23.819
 through the death

00:18:23.819 --> 00:18:25.220
 of Christ.

00:18:25.819 --> 00:18:26.940
 Verse 25

00:18:26.940 --> 00:18:29.680
 In the same way

00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:31.819
 after supper

00:18:31.819 --> 00:18:34.200
 he took the cup

00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:34.900
 saying

00:18:34.900 --> 00:18:37.279
 this cup

00:18:37.279 --> 00:18:38.580
 is the new covenant

00:18:38.580 --> 00:18:39.700
 in my blood.

00:18:39.700 --> 00:18:42.019
 do this

00:18:42.019 --> 00:18:43.340
 whenever you

00:18:43.340 --> 00:18:44.000
 drink it

00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:45.960
 in remembrance

00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:47.539
 of me.

00:18:49.340 --> 00:18:50.460
 The wine

00:18:50.460 --> 00:18:51.360
 or the juice

00:18:51.360 --> 00:18:52.680
 as we have it here

00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:54.779
 is a picture

00:18:54.779 --> 00:18:56.580
 of the blood

00:18:56.580 --> 00:18:57.259
 of Christ

00:18:57.259 --> 00:18:59.200
 that was shed

00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:00.160
 on the cross.

00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:01.100
 The blood

00:19:01.100 --> 00:19:01.700
 of Christ

00:19:01.700 --> 00:19:02.779
 which seals

00:19:02.779 --> 00:19:05.160
 and confirms

00:19:05.160 --> 00:19:06.360
 our new covenant

00:19:06.360 --> 00:19:07.680
 or that new

00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:08.940
 everlasting

00:19:08.940 --> 00:19:10.519
 unbreakable

00:19:10.519 --> 00:19:11.340
 relationship

00:19:11.340 --> 00:19:12.799
 with God.

00:19:14.900 --> 00:19:16.720
 But this new covenant

00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:17.460
 relationship

00:19:17.460 --> 00:19:18.299
 that we have

00:19:18.299 --> 00:19:18.880
 with God

00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:20.000
 is not just

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:20.940
 an individual

00:19:20.940 --> 00:19:22.660
 personal experience

00:19:22.660 --> 00:19:24.320
 it is a family

00:19:24.320 --> 00:19:25.160
 experience

00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:26.259
 for together

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:27.059
 we are

00:19:27.059 --> 00:19:28.480
 the new covenant

00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:29.620
 people

00:19:29.620 --> 00:19:31.100
 brothers

00:19:31.100 --> 00:19:32.240
 and sisters

00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:34.000
 in Christ.

00:19:35.380 --> 00:19:36.700
 In other words

00:19:36.700 --> 00:19:38.580
 we are united

00:19:38.580 --> 00:19:40.480
 to each

00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:40.940
 other.

00:19:44.059 --> 00:19:44.880
 Paul has

00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:45.720
 already addressed

00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:46.319
 this issue

00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:47.100
 if you go back

00:19:47.100 --> 00:19:48.160
 to chapter 10

00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:49.900
 and verse 16.

00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:50.660
 Have a look there

00:19:50.660 --> 00:19:51.480
 chapter 10

00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:53.059
 and verse 16.

00:19:53.059 --> 00:20:05.579
 look at verse 16

00:20:05.579 --> 00:20:07.619
 now as we read

00:20:07.619 --> 00:20:07.980
 we are going to

00:20:07.980 --> 00:20:08.779
 come across a word

00:20:08.779 --> 00:20:09.240
 which says

00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:10.099
 participation

00:20:10.099 --> 00:20:11.019
 I am going to

00:20:11.019 --> 00:20:11.899
 translate it as

00:20:11.899 --> 00:20:12.399
 fellowship

00:20:12.399 --> 00:20:13.759
 because that is

00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:15.419
 what it really

00:20:15.419 --> 00:20:15.779
 means

00:20:15.779 --> 00:20:17.000
 it is a sharing

00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:17.279
 in

00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:17.940
 a fellowship

00:20:17.940 --> 00:20:18.480
 in

00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:20.319
 with God

00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:21.399
 and with others

00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:22.480
 so verse 16

00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:24.380
 is not the cup

00:20:24.380 --> 00:20:25.340
 of thanksgiving

00:20:25.340 --> 00:20:26.120
 for which we

00:20:26.120 --> 00:20:26.800
 give thanks

00:20:26.800 --> 00:20:28.780
 a fellowship

00:20:28.780 --> 00:20:30.660
 in the blood

00:20:30.660 --> 00:20:31.300
 of Christ

00:20:31.300 --> 00:20:33.900
 and is not

00:20:33.900 --> 00:20:34.480
 the bread

00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:35.240
 that we break

00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:36.320
 a fellowship

00:20:36.320 --> 00:20:37.400
 in the body

00:20:37.400 --> 00:20:38.160
 of Christ

00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:39.080
 in other words

00:20:39.080 --> 00:20:39.960
 that as we eat

00:20:39.960 --> 00:20:40.480
 and drink

00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:41.540
 we share

00:20:41.540 --> 00:20:42.500
 in the fellowship

00:20:42.500 --> 00:20:43.759
 with God

00:20:43.759 --> 00:20:44.740
 with his son

00:20:44.740 --> 00:20:46.540
 we are together

00:20:46.540 --> 00:20:47.300
 with him

00:20:47.300 --> 00:20:49.320
 but not only

00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:50.220
 are we with him

00:20:50.220 --> 00:20:51.480
 and enjoy him

00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:52.679
 it also has a

00:20:52.679 --> 00:20:53.460
 knock on effect

00:20:53.460 --> 00:20:54.319
 verse 17

00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:56.119
 because there is

00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:56.980
 one loaf

00:20:56.980 --> 00:20:59.419
 we who are many

00:20:59.419 --> 00:21:01.159
 and we're many

00:21:01.159 --> 00:21:02.019
 here today

00:21:02.019 --> 00:21:03.759
 but yet we are

00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:04.839
 one body

00:21:04.839 --> 00:21:06.700
 for we all

00:21:06.700 --> 00:21:07.359
 partake

00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:08.179
 of one

00:21:08.179 --> 00:21:09.099
 loaf

00:21:09.099 --> 00:21:11.700
 so you see

00:21:11.700 --> 00:21:13.059
 we are not

00:21:13.059 --> 00:21:14.059
 just united

00:21:14.059 --> 00:21:14.799
 and have

00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:15.359
 fellowship

00:21:15.359 --> 00:21:16.179
 with God

00:21:16.179 --> 00:21:17.759
 we're also

00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:18.759
 one body

00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:19.220
 we have

00:21:19.220 --> 00:21:19.759
 fellowship

00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:20.440
 with one

00:21:20.440 --> 00:21:20.819
 another

00:21:20.819 --> 00:21:22.700
 so as we

00:21:22.700 --> 00:21:23.160
 in a minute

00:21:23.160 --> 00:21:23.640
 will come

00:21:23.640 --> 00:21:24.420
 to celebrate

00:21:24.420 --> 00:21:25.160
 the Lord's

00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:25.420
 Supper

00:21:25.420 --> 00:21:27.259
 when we

00:21:27.259 --> 00:21:28.039
 hear

00:21:28.039 --> 00:21:29.180
 the words

00:21:29.180 --> 00:21:31.119
 this is

00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:31.819
 my body

00:21:31.819 --> 00:21:33.400
 this is

00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:34.160
 my blood

00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:36.440
 when we

00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:37.440
 see the bread

00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:38.519
 broken

00:21:38.519 --> 00:21:40.599
 the wine

00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:41.559
 poured

00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:42.160
 out

00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:43.579
 when we

00:21:43.579 --> 00:21:44.299
 touch

00:21:44.299 --> 00:21:45.519
 the bread

00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:47.019
 and hold

00:21:47.019 --> 00:21:47.879
 the cup

00:21:47.879 --> 00:21:48.180
 in our

00:21:48.180 --> 00:21:48.720
 hands

00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:49.759
 when we

00:21:49.759 --> 00:21:50.400
 eat

00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:51.680
 of the bread

00:21:51.680 --> 00:21:52.900
 and drink

00:21:52.900 --> 00:21:54.180
 of the wine

00:21:54.180 --> 00:21:55.500
 all of our

00:21:55.500 --> 00:21:56.559
 senses are

00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:57.460
 engaged

00:21:57.460 --> 00:21:59.000
 to remind

00:21:59.000 --> 00:21:59.500
 us

00:21:59.500 --> 00:22:01.139
 so that we

00:22:01.139 --> 00:22:02.299
 never ever

00:22:02.299 --> 00:22:03.019
 forget

00:22:03.019 --> 00:22:05.160
 that we are

00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:06.259
 united to

00:22:06.259 --> 00:22:06.720
 God

00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:08.420
 and as a

00:22:08.420 --> 00:22:08.940
 consequence

00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:10.400
 we are now

00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:11.119
 united

00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:12.359
 as brothers

00:22:12.359 --> 00:22:13.119
 and sisters

00:22:13.119 --> 00:22:15.019
 with each

00:22:15.019 --> 00:22:15.500
 other

00:22:15.500 --> 00:22:17.500
 so

00:22:17.500 --> 00:22:19.739
 root out

00:22:19.739 --> 00:22:20.619
 any division

00:22:20.619 --> 00:22:22.459
 in Christ's

00:22:22.459 --> 00:22:22.759
 body

00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:24.579
 keep

00:22:24.579 --> 00:22:25.359
 central

00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:26.599
 the

00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:27.259
 remembering

00:22:27.259 --> 00:22:28.579
 of Christ's

00:22:28.579 --> 00:22:28.959
 death

00:22:28.959 --> 00:22:31.579
 and the

00:22:31.579 --> 00:22:32.239
 third big

00:22:32.239 --> 00:22:32.599
 thing

00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:34.879
 as we

00:22:34.879 --> 00:22:35.459
 come to

00:22:35.459 --> 00:22:36.279
 celebrate

00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:37.680
 the Lord's

00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:37.960
 supper

00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:39.740
 we need

00:22:39.740 --> 00:22:40.680
 to prepare

00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:41.639
 ourselves

00:22:41.639 --> 00:22:43.599
 to gather

00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:46.099
 at Christ's

00:22:46.099 --> 00:22:46.599
 table

00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:49.720
 now we need

00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:50.119
 to think

00:22:50.119 --> 00:22:50.579
 this through

00:22:50.579 --> 00:22:51.019
 carefully

00:22:51.019 --> 00:22:51.700
 each one

00:22:51.700 --> 00:22:52.160
 of us

00:22:52.160 --> 00:22:53.420
 there's

00:22:53.420 --> 00:22:54.240
 three ways

00:22:54.240 --> 00:22:55.480
 I think

00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:56.259
 this text

00:22:56.259 --> 00:22:56.899
 is pushing

00:22:56.899 --> 00:22:57.940
 us to

00:22:57.940 --> 00:22:58.759
 be prepared

00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:00.539
 first

00:23:00.539 --> 00:23:03.819
 personal

00:23:03.819 --> 00:23:04.660
 examination

00:23:04.660 --> 00:23:07.080
 we must

00:23:07.080 --> 00:23:07.740
 examine

00:23:07.740 --> 00:23:08.640
 the

00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:09.440
 motives

00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:11.240
 in our

00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:11.560
 own

00:23:11.560 --> 00:23:12.120
 lives

00:23:12.120 --> 00:23:13.480
 examine

00:23:13.480 --> 00:23:14.080
 the motives

00:23:14.080 --> 00:23:14.519
 in our

00:23:14.519 --> 00:23:14.700
 own

00:23:14.700 --> 00:23:14.940
 lives

00:23:14.940 --> 00:23:15.259
 look at

00:23:15.259 --> 00:23:16.120
 verse 27

00:23:16.120 --> 00:23:17.480
 of chapter

00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:17.940
 11

00:23:17.940 --> 00:23:21.440
 therefore

00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:23.700
 whoever

00:23:23.700 --> 00:23:24.980
 eats the

00:23:24.980 --> 00:23:25.400
 bread

00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:27.100
 or drinks

00:23:27.100 --> 00:23:27.560
 the cup

00:23:27.560 --> 00:23:27.880
 of the

00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:28.160
 Lord

00:23:28.160 --> 00:23:28.880
 in an

00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:29.640
 unworthy

00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:30.180
 manner

00:23:30.180 --> 00:23:32.980
 will be

00:23:32.980 --> 00:23:33.620
 guilty of

00:23:33.620 --> 00:23:34.100
 sinning

00:23:34.100 --> 00:23:34.480
 against

00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:35.180
 the body

00:23:35.180 --> 00:23:36.579
 and the

00:23:36.579 --> 00:23:36.960
 blood

00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:37.640
 of the

00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:38.000
 Lord

00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:41.079
 for us

00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:41.779
 to come

00:23:41.779 --> 00:23:42.380
 to this

00:23:42.380 --> 00:23:42.880
 table

00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:43.259
 that is

00:23:43.259 --> 00:23:44.180
 before us

00:23:44.180 --> 00:23:45.819
 in an

00:23:45.819 --> 00:23:46.539
 unworthy

00:23:46.539 --> 00:23:47.079
 manner

00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:48.680
 means

00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:49.440
 not to

00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:49.680
 come

00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:50.259
 without

00:23:50.259 --> 00:23:50.779
 sin

00:23:50.779 --> 00:23:52.339
 it means

00:23:52.339 --> 00:23:52.819
 to come

00:23:52.819 --> 00:23:53.480
 with an

00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:54.880
 unrepentant

00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:55.400
 heart

00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:58.380
 an unworthy

00:23:58.380 --> 00:23:58.839
 manner

00:23:58.839 --> 00:23:59.500
 means to

00:23:59.500 --> 00:23:59.860
 come with

00:23:59.860 --> 00:24:00.460
 an attitude

00:24:00.460 --> 00:24:01.480
 that ignores

00:24:01.480 --> 00:24:02.059
 our sin

00:24:02.059 --> 00:24:03.519
 rather than

00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:04.659
 confronts

00:24:04.659 --> 00:24:05.480
 our sin

00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:07.179
 in other

00:24:07.179 --> 00:24:07.700
 words as

00:24:07.700 --> 00:24:08.159
 we come

00:24:08.159 --> 00:24:08.519
 to the

00:24:08.519 --> 00:24:08.899
 table

00:24:08.899 --> 00:24:09.940
 we must

00:24:09.940 --> 00:24:10.419
 come

00:24:10.419 --> 00:24:11.299
 ready to

00:24:11.299 --> 00:24:12.079
 deal with

00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:12.519
 the sin

00:24:12.519 --> 00:24:12.819
 in our

00:24:12.819 --> 00:24:13.240
 lives

00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:14.700
 confess to

00:24:14.700 --> 00:24:15.059
 God

00:24:15.059 --> 00:24:15.720
 what is

00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:16.619
 really going

00:24:16.619 --> 00:24:17.039
 on

00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:18.919
 and ask

00:24:18.919 --> 00:24:19.519
 God to

00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:20.460
 change

00:24:20.460 --> 00:24:22.039
 our sinful

00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:22.659
 hearts

00:24:22.660 --> 00:24:23.360
 us

00:24:23.360 --> 00:24:24.980
 verse 28

00:24:24.980 --> 00:24:26.420
 a man

00:24:26.420 --> 00:24:28.080
 or a

00:24:28.080 --> 00:24:28.360
 woman

00:24:28.360 --> 00:24:30.519
 ought to

00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:31.279
 examine

00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:32.120
 himself

00:24:32.120 --> 00:24:34.279
 before he

00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:34.800
 eats of

00:24:34.800 --> 00:24:35.300
 the bread

00:24:35.300 --> 00:24:36.920
 and drinks

00:24:36.920 --> 00:24:37.560
 of the

00:24:37.560 --> 00:24:37.920
 cup

00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:40.860
 so before

00:24:40.860 --> 00:24:41.820
 we even

00:24:41.820 --> 00:24:42.259
 eat or

00:24:42.259 --> 00:24:42.660
 drink

00:24:42.660 --> 00:24:43.700
 check

00:24:43.700 --> 00:24:44.880
 your

00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:45.400
 motives

00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:47.640
 this is

00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:48.080
 not about

00:24:48.080 --> 00:24:48.660
 trying to

00:24:48.660 --> 00:24:49.100
 uncover

00:24:49.100 --> 00:24:49.540
 every

00:24:49.540 --> 00:24:50.060
 possible

00:24:50.060 --> 00:24:50.580
 sin we

00:24:50.580 --> 00:24:51.000
 may or

00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:51.500
 may not

00:24:51.500 --> 00:24:51.680
 have

00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:52.040
 committed

00:24:52.040 --> 00:24:52.740
 in the

00:24:52.740 --> 00:24:53.040
 last

00:24:53.040 --> 00:24:53.440
 day

00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:55.100
 this is

00:24:55.100 --> 00:24:55.400
 about

00:24:55.400 --> 00:24:55.980
 examining

00:24:55.980 --> 00:24:56.259
 our

00:24:56.259 --> 00:24:56.800
 hearts

00:24:56.800 --> 00:24:58.500
 to see

00:24:58.500 --> 00:24:58.880
 if I

00:24:58.880 --> 00:24:59.600
 am really

00:24:59.600 --> 00:25:00.380
 serious

00:25:00.380 --> 00:25:02.060
 about

00:25:02.060 --> 00:25:02.460
 dealing

00:25:02.460 --> 00:25:03.000
 with my

00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:03.380
 sinful

00:25:03.380 --> 00:25:03.860
 nature

00:25:03.860 --> 00:25:06.340
 am I

00:25:06.340 --> 00:25:06.820
 ready

00:25:06.820 --> 00:25:08.320
 to root

00:25:08.320 --> 00:25:08.759
 out the

00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:09.259
 grudges

00:25:09.259 --> 00:25:09.660
 that I

00:25:09.660 --> 00:25:10.080
 hold

00:25:10.080 --> 00:25:11.880
 the

00:25:11.880 --> 00:25:12.420
 anger

00:25:12.420 --> 00:25:12.720
 the

00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:13.120
 bitterness

00:25:13.120 --> 00:25:13.460
 the

00:25:13.460 --> 00:25:14.320
 unforgiveness

00:25:14.320 --> 00:25:14.759
 that is

00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:15.440
 festering

00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:15.799
 away

00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:16.740
 am I

00:25:16.740 --> 00:25:17.200
 ready to

00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:17.660
 deal with

00:25:17.660 --> 00:25:17.980
 that

00:25:17.980 --> 00:25:18.779
 today

00:25:18.779 --> 00:25:21.759
 do I

00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:22.259
 truly

00:25:22.259 --> 00:25:23.119
 desire to

00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:23.599
 break the

00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:24.319
 cycle of

00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:24.839
 destructive

00:25:24.839 --> 00:25:25.500
 habits

00:25:25.500 --> 00:25:27.960
 whether it's

00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:28.640
 pornography

00:25:28.640 --> 00:25:30.720
 or alcohol

00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:31.920
 or greed

00:25:31.920 --> 00:25:33.539
 do I

00:25:33.539 --> 00:25:34.279
 really want

00:25:34.279 --> 00:25:34.759
 to root

00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:35.299
 those out

00:25:35.299 --> 00:25:35.640
 of my

00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:36.099
 life

00:25:36.099 --> 00:25:40.140
 will I

00:25:40.140 --> 00:25:40.740
 surrender

00:25:40.740 --> 00:25:41.420
 what takes

00:25:41.420 --> 00:25:41.980
 the place

00:25:41.980 --> 00:25:42.559
 of Christ

00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:43.339
 whatever the

00:25:43.339 --> 00:25:43.859
 cost

00:25:43.859 --> 00:25:45.619
 be it

00:25:45.619 --> 00:25:46.399
 my career

00:25:46.399 --> 00:25:47.659
 or my

00:25:47.659 --> 00:25:48.299
 relationships

00:25:48.299 --> 00:25:48.979
 with one

00:25:48.979 --> 00:25:49.319
 another

00:25:49.319 --> 00:25:53.319
 before we

00:25:53.319 --> 00:25:54.439
 eat of

00:25:54.439 --> 00:25:55.159
 this bread

00:25:55.159 --> 00:25:57.059
 or drink

00:25:57.059 --> 00:25:57.479
 of this

00:25:57.479 --> 00:25:57.959
 juice

00:25:57.959 --> 00:25:59.439
 examine

00:25:59.439 --> 00:26:01.259
 our

00:26:01.259 --> 00:26:01.740
 motives

00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:09.220
 to do

00:26:09.220 --> 00:26:09.420
 in

 preparation

00:26:10.019 --> 00:26:12.460
 is to

00:26:12.460 --> 00:26:12.700
 look at

00:26:12.700 --> 00:26:12.859
 our

00:26:12.859 --> 00:26:13.220
 family

00:26:13.220 --> 00:26:14.039
 relationships

00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:16.680

00:26:16.680 --> 00:26:16.980
 must

00:26:16.980 --> 00:26:17.359
 sort

00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:17.700
 out

00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:39.779
 now

00:27:39.940 --> 00:27:40.519
 personal

00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:41.220
 experience

00:27:41.220 --> 00:27:41.900
 it

00:27:41.900 --> 00:27:42.080
 is

00:27:42.080 --> 00:27:42.319
 a

00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:42.799
 family

00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:43.700
 meal

00:27:43.700 --> 00:27:46.500
 and

00:27:46.500 --> 00:27:46.720
 we

00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:47.120
 cannot

00:27:47.120 --> 00:27:47.759
 start

00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:48.080
 this

00:27:48.080 --> 00:27:48.420
 meal

00:27:48.420 --> 00:27:48.680
 without

00:27:49.120 --> 00:27:49.440
 putting

00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:50.019
 what

00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:50.559
 wrong

00:27:50.559 --> 00:27:55.319

00:27:55.319 --> 00:27:55.519
 that

00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:56.039
 means

00:27:56.039 --> 00:27:57.799
 that

00:27:57.799 --> 00:27:57.919
 it

00:27:57.919 --> 00:27:58.139
 might

00:27:58.139 --> 00:27:58.339
 be

 that

00:27:59.240 --> 00:27:59.579
 do

00:27:59.579 --> 00:28:01.859
 is

00:28:01.859 --> 00:28:02.019
 we

00:28:02.019 --> 00:28:02.200
 need

00:28:50.019 --> 00:28:51.579
 look

00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:55.720

00:28:55.720 --> 00:28:56.180
 why

00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:14.839
 God

00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:15.259
 takes

00:29:15.259 --> 00:29:15.720
 sin

00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:17.099
 and

 will

00:29:21.940 --> 00:29:22.259
 not

00:29:22.259 --> 00:29:22.700
 put up

00:29:22.900 --> 00:29:23.359
 believers

00:29:23.359 --> 00:29:23.700
 who

00:29:23.700 --> 00:29:24.759
 persistently

00:29:24.759 --> 00:29:25.460
 remain

 unrepentant

00:29:26.980 --> 00:29:28.599
 God

 undealt

00:29:32.660 --> 00:29:33.039
 with

00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:34.960
 you see

00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:35.539
 if we

00:29:35.539 --> 00:29:35.980
 don't

00:29:35.980 --> 00:29:36.299
 take

00:29:36.660 --> 00:29:37.379
 seriously

00:29:37.379 --> 00:29:38.400
 if we

00:29:38.400 --> 00:29:38.839
 don't

00:29:38.839 --> 00:29:39.139
 deal

00:29:39.139 --> 00:29:39.379
 with

 broken

00:29:39.779 --> 00:29:40.559

00:29:40.559 --> 00:29:41.980
 well

00:29:41.980 --> 00:29:42.420
 then God

 will

00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:46.460
 if

00:29:46.460 --> 00:29:46.859
 we

00:29:46.859 --> 00:29:47.399
 judged

00:29:47.399 --> 00:29:48.200
 ourselves

00:29:48.200 --> 00:29:50.119
 we

00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:50.399
 would

00:29:50.399 --> 00:29:50.619
 not

00:29:50.619 --> 00:29:50.859
 come

00:29:50.859 --> 00:29:51.119
 under

00:29:51.119 --> 00:29:51.519
 judgment

00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:52.519
 in

 words

00:29:52.899 --> 00:29:53.099
 if

00:29:53.099 --> 00:29:53.339
 we

00:29:53.339 --> 00:29:53.599
 did

00:29:53.599 --> 00:29:53.819
 what

00:29:53.819 --> 00:29:54.059
 we

00:29:54.059 --> 00:29:54.259
 were

00:29:54.259 --> 00:29:54.480
 meant

00:29:54.480 --> 00:29:54.680
 to

00:29:54.680 --> 00:29:54.919
 do

00:29:54.919 --> 00:29:55.419
 then

00:29:55.419 --> 00:29:55.599
 there

00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:55.720
 would

00:29:55.720 --> 00:29:55.899
 be

00:29:55.899 --> 00:29:56.200
 no

00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:56.519
 need

00:29:56.519 --> 00:29:56.740
 for

00:29:56.740 --> 00:29:57.079
 God

00:29:57.079 --> 00:29:57.319
 to

00:29:57.319 --> 00:29:57.940
 intervene

00:29:57.940 --> 00:29:58.960
 and

00:29:58.960 --> 00:29:59.279
 judge

00:29:59.279 --> 00:29:59.819
 us

00:29:59.819 --> 00:30:03.579
 now

00:30:03.579 --> 00:30:03.919
 as we

00:30:03.919 --> 00:30:04.179
 read

00:30:04.179 --> 00:30:04.419
 this

00:30:04.419 --> 00:30:04.599
 I

00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:04.879
 know

00:30:04.879 --> 00:30:05.079
 that

00:30:05.079 --> 00:30:05.200
 it

00:30:05.200 --> 00:30:05.379
 can

00:30:05.379 --> 00:30:05.799
 cause

00:30:05.799 --> 00:30:06.539
 great

00:30:06.539 --> 00:30:07.139
 concern

00:30:07.139 --> 00:30:08.859
 and

00:30:08.859 --> 00:30:08.980
 it

00:30:08.980 --> 00:30:09.179
 can

00:30:09.179 --> 00:30:09.619
 trouble

00:30:09.619 --> 00:30:10.000
 us

00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:11.240
 unnecessarily

00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:13.399
 but

00:30:13.399 --> 00:30:13.539
 we

00:30:13.539 --> 00:30:13.720
 need

00:30:13.720 --> 00:30:13.859
 to

00:30:13.859 --> 00:30:14.379
 understand

00:30:14.379 --> 00:30:14.859
 clearly

00:30:14.859 --> 00:30:15.119
 what

00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:15.319
 they're

00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:15.579
 saying

00:30:15.579 --> 00:30:15.779
 so

00:32:40.460 --> 00:32:40.799
 are

00:32:40.799 --> 00:32:41.400
 together

00:32:41.400 --> 00:32:43.140

00:32:43.380 --> 00:32:44.019
 celebrate

00:32:44.019 --> 00:32:44.380

00:32:44.840 --> 00:32:45.059
 supper

00:32:45.059 --> 00:32:45.640
 together

00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:47.800
 look at

00:32:47.800 --> 00:32:48.000
 verse

00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:48.600
 33

00:32:48.600 --> 00:32:50.800
 so

00:32:50.800 --> 00:32:51.320
 then my

00:32:51.320 --> 00:32:51.660
 brothers

00:32:51.660 --> 00:32:51.940
 and

00:32:51.940 --> 00:32:52.380
 sisters

00:32:52.380 --> 00:32:54.080
 when

00:32:54.080 --> 00:32:54.340
 you

00:32:54.340 --> 00:32:54.759
 come

00:32:54.759 --> 00:32:55.300
 together

00:32:55.300 --> 00:32:55.560
 to

00:32:55.560 --> 00:32:55.940
 eat

00:32:55.940 --> 00:32:58.160
 wait

00:32:58.160 --> 00:32:58.860
 for

00:32:58.860 --> 00:32:59.080
 each

00:32:59.080 --> 00:32:59.380
 other

00:32:59.380 --> 00:33:00.860
 this

00:33:00.860 --> 00:33:01.240
 is not

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:01.620
 some

00:33:01.620 --> 00:33:02.300
 private

00:33:02.300 --> 00:33:03.160
 personal

00:33:03.160 --> 00:33:03.880
 experience

00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:04.280
 where we

00:33:04.280 --> 00:33:04.720
 come in

00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:05.080
 for our

00:33:05.080 --> 00:33:05.500
 top up

00:33:05.500 --> 00:33:06.000
 of grace

00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:06.620
 and to

00:33:06.620 --> 00:33:06.920
 get a

00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:07.080
 little

00:33:07.080 --> 00:33:07.360
 bit of

00:33:07.360 --> 00:33:07.680
 forgiveness

00:33:07.680 --> 00:33:08.080
 and then

00:33:08.080 --> 00:33:08.440
 go off

00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:08.720
 and do

00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:09.000
 whatever

00:33:09.000 --> 00:33:09.460
 we like

00:33:09.460 --> 00:33:09.880
 and forget

00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:10.180
 each

00:33:10.180 --> 00:33:10.440
 other

00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:11.980
 no

00:33:11.980 --> 00:33:12.180
 this

00:33:12.180 --> 00:33:12.540
 is a

00:33:12.540 --> 00:33:12.940
 deeply

00:33:12.940 --> 00:33:13.720
 intimate

00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:14.320
 family

00:33:14.320 --> 00:33:14.800
 meal

00:33:14.799 --> 00:33:16.440
 where we

00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:16.899
 remember

00:33:16.899 --> 00:33:17.419
 that through

00:33:17.419 --> 00:33:17.899
 the death

00:33:17.899 --> 00:33:18.399
 of Jesus

00:33:18.399 --> 00:33:18.940
 we are

00:33:18.940 --> 00:33:19.559
 united

00:33:19.559 --> 00:33:20.180
 to God

00:33:20.180 --> 00:33:21.500
 and we

00:33:21.500 --> 00:33:22.240
 are united

00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:22.819
 to

00:33:22.819 --> 00:33:23.700
 one

00:33:23.700 --> 00:33:24.539
 another

00:33:24.539 --> 00:33:25.680
 it is

00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:26.279
 the place

00:33:26.279 --> 00:33:26.680
 where we

00:33:26.680 --> 00:33:27.279
 can come

00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:27.879
 openly

00:33:27.879 --> 00:33:28.879
 and freely

00:33:28.879 --> 00:33:31.019
 and come

00:33:31.019 --> 00:33:31.819
 and receive

00:33:31.819 --> 00:33:32.740
 the forgiveness

00:33:32.740 --> 00:33:33.619
 to know

00:33:33.619 --> 00:33:34.599
 that cleansing

00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:35.000
 and the

00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:35.759
 washing away

00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:36.440
 of our guilt

00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:37.119
 and shame

00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:40.059
 to come

00:33:40.059 --> 00:33:40.379
 and do

00:33:40.379 --> 00:33:40.980
 business

00:33:40.980 --> 00:33:41.659
 with God

00:33:41.659 --> 00:33:43.220
 to change

00:33:43.220 --> 00:33:43.759
 our hearts

00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:44.279
 to be more

00:33:44.279 --> 00:33:44.779
 like him

00:33:44.779 --> 00:33:47.759
 we are

00:33:47.759 --> 00:33:48.119
 going to

00:33:48.119 --> 00:33:48.700
 continue

00:33:48.700 --> 00:33:50.859
 in celebration

00:33:50.859 --> 00:33:52.259
 of the

00:33:52.259 --> 00:33:52.599
 Lord's

00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:52.740
 Supper

00:33:52.740 --> 00:33:52.980
 we are

00:33:52.980 --> 00:33:53.200
 going to

00:33:53.200 --> 00:33:53.559
 sing a

00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:53.779
 song

00:33:53.779 --> 00:33:54.139
 you can

00:33:54.139 --> 00:33:54.500
 remain

00:33:54.500 --> 00:33:55.000
 seated

00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:55.420
 as we

00:33:55.420 --> 00:33:55.779
 sing

00:33:55.779 --> 00:34:00.359
 we sang

00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:00.539
 it

00:34:00.539 --> 00:34:00.960
 I think

00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:01.240
 even

00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:01.980
 last week

00:34:01.980 --> 00:34:03.680
 but I

00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:04.119
 think it is

00:34:04.119 --> 00:34:04.579
 appropriate

00:34:04.579 --> 00:34:05.200
 for us

00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:05.579
 to sing

00:34:05.579 --> 00:34:05.799
 we will

00:34:05.799 --> 00:34:06.079
 sing it

00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:06.420
 a couple

00:34:06.420 --> 00:34:07.000
 times

00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:08.920
 as we

00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:09.099
 are

00:34:09.099 --> 00:34:09.519
 gathered

00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:11.860
 Jesus

00:34:11.860 --> 00:34:12.599
 is

00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:13.179
 here

00:34:13.179 --> 00:34:15.859
 he is

00:34:15.859 --> 00:34:16.339
 present

00:34:16.339 --> 00:34:16.899
 with us

00:34:16.899 --> 00:34:17.500
 by his

00:34:17.500 --> 00:34:17.980
 spirit

00:34:17.980 --> 00:34:19.500
 and his

00:34:19.500 --> 00:34:20.159
 presence

00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:20.960
 with us

00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:22.159
 is

00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:23.039
 demonstrated

00:34:23.039 --> 00:34:23.599
 in the

00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:24.079
 symbols

00:34:24.079 --> 00:34:24.519
 of the

00:34:24.519 --> 00:34:24.940
 bread

00:34:24.940 --> 00:34:25.919
 and the

00:34:25.919 --> 00:34:26.179
 juice

00:34:26.179 --> 00:34:26.779
 reminding

00:34:26.779 --> 00:34:27.319
 us

00:34:27.319 --> 00:34:28.639
 that

00:34:28.639 --> 00:34:29.139
 Christ

00:34:29.139 --> 00:34:29.940
 has died

00:34:29.940 --> 00:34:31.419
 for us

00:34:31.419 --> 00:34:31.980
 so we will

00:34:31.980 --> 00:34:32.319
 remain

00:34:32.319 --> 00:34:32.759
 seated

00:34:32.759 --> 00:34:34.199
 as we

00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:34.519
 sing

00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:47.159
 and

00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:49.360
 him

00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:50.599
 in

00:34:50.599 --> 00:34:51.420
 his

00:34:53.259 --> 00:34:53.780
 bridge

00:34:53.780 --> 00:34:55.300
 he

00:34:55.300 --> 00:34:57.360
 and

00:34:57.360 --> 00:34:59.360
 he
