00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:11.140
 And if you'd pray those two great commands of Scripture of turning your phones off and turning to Matthew chapter 7.

00:00:11.140 --> 00:00:21.940
! Matthew 7, 1-12 this morning. I don't know whether you can remember the reading, Matthew 7, 1-12.

00:00:23.500 --> 00:00:29.620
 But I think one of the problems with the sermon on the mount is we are so used to looking at it in little sections.

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:33.539
 Sometimes it's very difficult to see the connections.

00:00:35.259 --> 00:00:39.519
 And how is Matthew 7, 1-12 connected?

00:00:41.340 --> 00:00:48.179
 It speaks of logs and dogs and hogs.

00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:52.340
 But how is all that pulled together? What is the connection?

00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:56.659
 Is there any link between Jesus talking about what he's talking about?

00:00:56.659 --> 00:00:59.000
 So in verses 1-5 he takes you to the octalmatrist.

00:01:00.339 --> 00:01:04.060
 And then in verses 6 he takes you to the cafe.

00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:09.259
 And then in verses 7-9 he takes you to the farm.

00:01:09.260 --> 00:01:13.100
 How is it all connected? How does it all link up?

00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:16.600
 I think Jesus gives us the clue in verse 1.

00:01:17.260 --> 00:01:19.920
 He says, judge not. Stop judging.

00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:22.520
 And that is the link that I think we often miss.

00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:27.519
 The link about judging. Proper judgment and having discernment.

00:01:27.579 --> 00:01:29.280
 That actually goes right the way through this chapter.

00:01:30.039 --> 00:01:31.420
 And these first 12 verses.

00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:32.659
 That seems to be the keynote.

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:35.599
 And so four points this morning.

00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:38.759
 I think Jesus teaches us first of all the restriction on judging.

00:01:40.019 --> 00:01:42.500
 The restriction on judging.

00:01:43.339 --> 00:01:46.939
 Stop judging in order that you would not be judged.

00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:47.739
 That's the command.

00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:51.759
 Jesus is making this command isn't he?

00:01:51.759 --> 00:01:56.259
 He's saying that habit of persistent ongoing fault finding that people have.

00:01:56.260 --> 00:01:59.380
 And again we need to remember the context.

00:01:59.500 --> 00:02:00.780
 Jesus is speaking to his disciples.

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:03.660
 And he is saying to his followers.

00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:07.740
 Get rid of this habit of carping criticism.

00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:12.680
 Even this idea of condemning other people enters into it as well.

00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:18.939
 And he seems to have in mind this carping criticism fault finding.

00:02:19.140 --> 00:02:21.960
 That centres on non-essentials.

00:02:23.020 --> 00:02:25.000
 And we get that from verses 3-5 don't we?

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:31.080
 We see this fellow who seems to see a speck of sawdust in his brother's eye.

00:02:32.300 --> 00:02:34.340
 You know on rather small matters.

00:02:34.580 --> 00:02:37.199
 They get all disturbed and critical.

00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:40.159
 And he says stop judging that.

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:42.340
 Stop judging that.

00:02:43.020 --> 00:02:45.500
 See the great big plank in your own eye.

00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:49.420
 Charles Spurgeon when he was in his early ministry.

00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:50.979
 He started being a minister when he was 17.

00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.060
 He was just a young man and he made a number of mistakes.

00:02:53.060 --> 00:02:54.920
 He was young at that time.

00:02:55.060 --> 00:02:58.840
 There was a certain fellow that would come to him every Monday and point out his mistakes.

00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:02.060
 And one day this man, his name was Mr Brimley.

00:03:02.140 --> 00:03:03.300
 He was actually the mayor of Cambridge.

00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:05.000
 He said to young Spurgeon.

00:03:05.099 --> 00:03:11.780
 Is it really true that you told your people the other Sunday that if a thief would get into heaven he would pick the angels pockets?

00:03:11.780 --> 00:03:14.159
 This version said well yes.

00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:23.840
 If a thief, if it were possible for an ungodly person without him being changed by the Holy Spirit, without him being born again,

00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:27.539
 if he got into heaven with the same nature as he's got now,

00:03:27.920 --> 00:03:31.680
 if a thief got into heaven and his nature was unchanged it wouldn't do any good.

00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:32.400
 He would steal in heaven.

00:03:32.939 --> 00:03:35.759
 He would go around as a thief picking the angels pockets.

00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:40.799
 My dear fellow Brimley said, don't you realise angels don't have pockets?

00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:45.000
 And Spurgeon said with the same gravity, no sir.

00:03:45.699 --> 00:03:46.759
 Well I didn't realise that.

00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:48.539
 But I will put this right.

00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:50.959
 I'm glad to hear from someone who knows.

00:03:53.139 --> 00:03:57.479
 Following Monday morning, Spurgeon goes into his shop and he goes into Mr Brimley's shop and he said,

00:03:57.539 --> 00:03:58.859
 Mr Brimley I put the matter right.

00:03:59.879 --> 00:04:00.539
 What matter?

00:04:01.139 --> 00:04:02.299
 I put the angels pockets.

00:04:02.300 --> 00:04:05.740
 Mr Brimley looked horrified and said, what did you say?

00:04:06.700 --> 00:04:10.040
 Spurgeon said, I told my people that I made a mistake when I was preaching to them last Sunday.

00:04:10.460 --> 00:04:13.340
 I told them that if a thief got into heaven with his nature unchanged,

00:04:13.420 --> 00:04:15.640
 he would still go around picking the angels pockets.

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:19.840
 But that I have subsequently heard from no lesser person than the mayor of Cambridge,

00:04:20.080 --> 00:04:22.500
 someone who knows that angels have no pockets.

00:04:23.540 --> 00:04:25.920
 And so I don't want you to go around with the false notion about heaven.

00:04:27.100 --> 00:04:29.980
 And so I told them that if a thief were ever to get into heaven with a nature unchanged,

00:04:29.980 --> 00:04:32.560
 then she would go around plucking the feathers out of the angels' wings.

00:04:34.620 --> 00:04:38.439
 Mr Brimley said furiously, I will never try to set you straight again.

00:04:39.740 --> 00:04:42.080
 Spurgeon replied, that is precisely what I wanted you to say.

00:04:43.080 --> 00:04:44.680
 Now that was a very silly illustration.

00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:47.720
 But some people have this habit, don't they?

00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:49.840
 They have a habit of carping and fault-finding.

00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:51.580
 And Jesus says, stop it.

00:04:52.180 --> 00:04:52.939
 It's really interesting.

00:04:53.180 --> 00:04:53.800
 He says, stop it.

00:04:54.840 --> 00:04:56.040
 We often don't think we can say that.

00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:00.360
 Stop this habit of fault-finding and criticising.

00:05:01.860 --> 00:05:03.480
 But it's become part of your nature.

00:05:04.760 --> 00:05:06.600
 The young composer gave a concert.

00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:08.580
 It didn't fare well with the critics.

00:05:08.760 --> 00:05:10.040
 The critics really panned it.

00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:10.879
 They didn't care for it.

00:05:11.020 --> 00:05:14.300
 But Gene Sibelius, the famous Finnish composer,

00:05:14.420 --> 00:05:15.340
 consoled the young fellow.

00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:16.980
 He patted him on the shoulder and he says,

00:05:17.140 --> 00:05:19.980
 remember, son, there is not one city in the world

00:05:19.980 --> 00:05:22.200
 where they've erected a statue to a critic.

00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:24.600
 Stop judging.

00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:29.340
 Now why is it that we have this habit of doing so?

00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.660
 There are certain reasons why we shouldn't do it.

00:05:34.060 --> 00:05:35.260
 Or we put it positively,

00:05:36.180 --> 00:05:37.980
 there are reasons why we do it.

00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:41.800
 First reason is that we forget our position before God.

00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:46.980
 Stop judging, Jesus says, that you be not judged.

00:05:48.140 --> 00:05:49.360
 For with the judgement you pronounce,

00:05:49.500 --> 00:05:50.780
 you will be judged.

00:05:50.780 --> 00:05:52.460
 And with the measure you use,

00:05:52.580 --> 00:05:54.020
 it will be measured to you.

00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.220
 What does he mean when he says,

00:05:57.420 --> 00:05:59.280
 lest you be judged, that you be not judged?

00:06:01.100 --> 00:06:04.240
 He doesn't mean that if you're critical of someone,

00:06:04.820 --> 00:06:07.060
 of others, they'll be critical of you.

00:06:07.220 --> 00:06:08.200
 That isn't what he's saying.

00:06:09.500 --> 00:06:11.580
 He isn't saying a kind of karma,

00:06:11.700 --> 00:06:14.200
 you criticise others and it'll all come back to you.

00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:20.180
 Probably what Jesus means is when he says that you be not judged,

00:06:20.259 --> 00:06:23.680
 that passive verb refers frequently,

00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:25.459
 it has the idea of God's activity.

00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:27.899
 What he's saying,

00:06:28.500 --> 00:06:30.879
 do not judge lest you be judged by God.

00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:34.300
 And so what Jesus is saying is,

00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:35.879
 realise that, stop that.

00:06:36.860 --> 00:06:39.000
 This habit of judging, lest you be judged.

00:06:39.899 --> 00:06:43.219
 You need to know that you too stand under the judgement of God.

00:06:43.220 --> 00:06:47.720
 You also are one who is going to be judged.

00:06:49.900 --> 00:06:50.700
 And at that point,

00:06:50.880 --> 00:06:53.140
 if you've been brought up in an evangelical church,

00:06:53.200 --> 00:06:54.920
 you'll say, hang on a minute, hang on a minute.

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:58.280
 If God has brought me to faith in Jesus,

00:06:59.660 --> 00:07:01.220
 then I will not face judgement anymore.

00:07:01.220 --> 00:07:05.640
 Three things students always say.

00:07:06.820 --> 00:07:08.100
 Every sin is exactly the same.

00:07:08.580 --> 00:07:09.860
 It's all the same, which it isn't.

00:07:10.960 --> 00:07:11.900
 I can't remember what the third one is.

00:07:12.200 --> 00:07:14.800
 The second one is this.

00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:16.560
 There's no judgement for Christians.

00:07:17.660 --> 00:07:18.600
 We will not face judgement.

00:07:19.420 --> 00:07:20.780
 And that is true in one sense, isn't it?

00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:23.080
 There is no more condemnation in Christ Jesus.

00:07:23.440 --> 00:07:24.020
 Wonderfully so.

00:07:25.300 --> 00:07:26.780
 You're not judged according,

00:07:27.260 --> 00:07:28.620
 with regard to your salvation.

00:07:28.620 --> 00:07:31.639
 That you are secure in him.

00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:35.699
 There is no way that God is going to change his mind.

00:07:35.819 --> 00:07:36.860
 There's no way that God is going to

00:07:36.860 --> 00:07:40.639
 overturn his verdict on your life.

00:07:42.379 --> 00:07:43.740
 God will not change his mind.

00:07:44.939 --> 00:07:46.079
 But that doesn't mean

00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:47.480
 that as a Christian disciple,

00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:48.699
 you will not be judged

00:07:48.699 --> 00:07:52.780
 for the quality of your Christian life.

00:07:55.019 --> 00:07:55.899
 And that is actually

00:07:55.899 --> 00:07:57.319
 a lot of the teaching in the New Testament.

00:07:57.319 --> 00:07:58.959
 So, in Romans 14,

00:07:59.060 --> 00:07:59.540
 where he says,

00:07:59.719 --> 00:08:00.680
 in verse 12,

00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:01.639
 10 of verse 12,

00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:02.420
 You then,

00:08:02.540 --> 00:08:03.719
 why do you judge your brother?

00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:05.579
 Or why do you look down on your brother?

00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:06.599
 For we will all stand

00:08:06.599 --> 00:08:07.819
 before God's judgement seat.

00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:09.040
 So each one of us

00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:09.839
 will give an account

00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:11.600
 for himself to God.

00:08:11.659 --> 00:08:12.399
 That's what Paul means

00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:13.360
 in 2 Corinthians 5.

00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:14.079
 Again,

00:08:14.300 --> 00:08:15.379
 he's talking to Christians.

00:08:15.699 --> 00:08:16.199
 And he says,

00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:17.339
 for we must all appear

00:08:17.339 --> 00:08:18.620
 before the judgement seat of Christ.

00:08:18.620 --> 00:08:20.639
 that each one

00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:21.139
 may receive

00:08:21.139 --> 00:08:22.340
 what is due him

00:08:22.340 --> 00:08:23.180
 for the things done

00:08:23.180 --> 00:08:23.939
 while in the body.

00:08:24.259 --> 00:08:24.819
 In other words,

00:08:24.939 --> 00:08:25.860
 you need to be careful

00:08:25.860 --> 00:08:27.000
 and I need to be careful

00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:28.899
 because you and I too

00:08:28.899 --> 00:08:30.079
 will stand before

00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:31.079
 Christ's judgement seat

00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:31.699
 for the quality

00:08:31.699 --> 00:08:32.679
 of our Christian life.

00:08:34.539 --> 00:08:36.000
 You too will be judged.

00:08:38.179 --> 00:08:38.919
 Your temper,

00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:41.539
 the gifts that the Lord

00:08:41.539 --> 00:08:42.039
 has given you

00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:43.039
 and how you've used them,

00:08:43.299 --> 00:08:44.320
 your criticism of other.

00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:45.400
 And Jesus says,

00:08:45.640 --> 00:08:46.320
 don't forget,

00:08:46.820 --> 00:08:47.800
 not only don't forget

00:08:47.800 --> 00:08:48.480
 your position,

00:08:49.640 --> 00:08:50.940
 but you are blind

00:08:50.940 --> 00:08:52.280
 so often to your own sins.

00:08:52.340 --> 00:08:53.000
 And that is the point

00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:54.020
 of verses 3 to 5,

00:08:54.140 --> 00:08:54.480
 isn't it?

00:08:55.760 --> 00:08:56.440
 Why do you see

00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:57.180
 the little speck

00:08:57.180 --> 00:08:58.160
 that's in your brother's eye

00:08:58.160 --> 00:08:58.980
 but don't notice

00:08:58.980 --> 00:08:59.879
 the great big log

00:08:59.879 --> 00:09:00.720
 that's in your own eye?

00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:02.960
 How can you say to your brother,

00:09:03.040 --> 00:09:04.000
 let me take the speck

00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:04.680
 out of your eye

00:09:04.680 --> 00:09:05.580
 when there is a log

00:09:05.580 --> 00:09:06.220
 in your own eye?

00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:07.760
 You hypocrite.

00:09:08.280 --> 00:09:08.640
 First,

00:09:08.940 --> 00:09:09.800
 get rid of the log

00:09:09.800 --> 00:09:10.520
 out of your own eye

00:09:10.520 --> 00:09:11.660
 and then you will see clearly

00:09:11.660 --> 00:09:12.540
 to take the speck

00:09:12.540 --> 00:09:13.380
 out of your brother's eye.

00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:16.400
 It's stupid,

00:09:16.500 --> 00:09:16.700
 isn't it,

00:09:16.700 --> 00:09:17.360
 to go up to him

00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:17.820
 and say,

00:09:18.180 --> 00:09:20.240
 you've got this little speck

00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:21.620
 of dust in your eye

00:09:21.620 --> 00:09:22.640
 that's making it red

00:09:22.640 --> 00:09:23.860
 and you've got this massive

00:09:23.860 --> 00:09:25.800
 2x4 plank

00:09:25.800 --> 00:09:26.780
 in your eye.

00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:28.180
 How are you ever

00:09:28.180 --> 00:09:28.520
 going to be able

00:09:28.520 --> 00:09:29.280
 to see to do that?

00:09:31.020 --> 00:09:31.420
 Hypocrite,

00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:32.060
 first of all,

00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:32.700
 remove it.

00:09:34.300 --> 00:09:35.160
 It's like somebody

00:09:35.160 --> 00:09:36.520
 with loads of dandruff

00:09:36.520 --> 00:09:37.260
 on their shoulders

00:09:37.260 --> 00:09:38.140
 going up to somebody

00:09:38.140 --> 00:09:39.140
 with a tiny little fluff

00:09:39.140 --> 00:09:39.300
 and saying,

00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:39.820
 oh, you've got something

00:09:39.820 --> 00:09:40.340
 on your suit

00:09:40.340 --> 00:09:41.040
 and rubbing it off.

00:09:42.040 --> 00:09:43.120
 Sort yourself out.

00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:46.020
 There's a terrible

00:09:46.020 --> 00:09:46.660
 blindness,

00:09:46.820 --> 00:09:47.320
 isn't there,

00:09:48.460 --> 00:09:49.020
 in you and I

00:09:49.020 --> 00:09:49.840
 to our own sin.

00:09:52.140 --> 00:09:52.940
 And we need to be

00:09:52.940 --> 00:09:53.680
 aware of that.

00:09:55.160 --> 00:09:56.060
 And that is involved

00:09:56.060 --> 00:09:57.040
 in what Jesus is saying.

00:09:57.320 --> 00:09:58.320
 In verses 3 to 5,

00:09:58.420 --> 00:09:58.820
 he says,

00:09:58.980 --> 00:10:00.780
 judge not

00:10:00.780 --> 00:10:01.560
 in verse 1.

00:10:04.940 --> 00:10:05.640
 You can see that

00:10:05.640 --> 00:10:06.080
 what he means

00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:06.879
 in verses 3 to 5,

00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:07.120
 isn't he?

00:10:07.220 --> 00:10:07.640
 He's saying,

00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:08.320
 don't judge hypocritically.

00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:08.879
 Hypocritically.

00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:11.600
 It's interesting,

00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:13.120
 Jesus is not forbidding,

00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:14.160
 he's not saying,

00:10:14.580 --> 00:10:16.240
 be gullible,

00:10:16.460 --> 00:10:17.160
 he's not saying,

00:10:17.379 --> 00:10:18.280
 don't be discerning.

00:10:19.680 --> 00:10:20.440
 He's saying,

00:10:20.620 --> 00:10:22.560
 don't judge hypocritically.

00:10:24.560 --> 00:10:25.800
 Don't judge in a way

00:10:25.800 --> 00:10:26.560
 that is blind

00:10:26.560 --> 00:10:27.580
 to your own sin.

00:10:27.820 --> 00:10:29.040
 We can see it in others,

00:10:29.140 --> 00:10:29.460
 can't we,

00:10:29.500 --> 00:10:30.420
 but not in ourselves.

00:10:32.280 --> 00:10:32.840
 And that is what

00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:33.840
 Jesus is addressing here.

00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:36.500
 When we go to

00:10:36.500 --> 00:10:37.560
 camp in Swansea,

00:10:37.620 --> 00:10:38.379
 we stay in the church

00:10:38.379 --> 00:10:39.100
 I grew up in.

00:10:39.860 --> 00:10:40.440
 And it's a

00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:41.480
 kind of,

00:10:41.540 --> 00:10:42.940
 it's a 19th century building,

00:10:43.060 --> 00:10:43.600
 the toilets are

00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:44.560
 pretty grotty

00:10:44.560 --> 00:10:45.460
 where the gents are anyway.

00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:47.820
 And there's a sink,

00:10:48.139 --> 00:10:49.060
 but the mirror

00:10:49.060 --> 00:10:49.840
 to the sink

00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:51.100
 is on a different wall,

00:10:51.420 --> 00:10:52.800
 which is really fine,

00:10:52.940 --> 00:10:53.320
 apart from when

00:10:53.320 --> 00:10:54.360
 you want to go and shave.

00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:55.879
 You want to try to shave

00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:56.460
 without a mirror?

00:10:57.180 --> 00:10:57.519
 Men?

00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:01.580
 It's so difficult,

00:11:01.700 --> 00:11:02.100
 isn't it?

00:11:02.100 --> 00:11:04.320
 Because you cannot

00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:05.639
 shave without a mirror.

00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:05.980
 Can you?

00:11:06.060 --> 00:11:07.960
 You end up with streaks

00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:08.840
 while I'm not shaving

00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:09.279
 at the moment.

00:11:09.540 --> 00:11:10.480
 You cannot shave

00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:11.120
 without a mirror.

00:11:11.700 --> 00:11:12.600
 Because you have

00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:13.759
 to see yourself.

00:11:16.040 --> 00:11:17.139
 And you can very

00:11:17.139 --> 00:11:19.100
 clearly see others,

00:11:20.019 --> 00:11:20.600
 the sin of others,

00:11:20.680 --> 00:11:21.420
 but you can't very

00:11:21.420 --> 00:11:22.279
 clearly see yourself,

00:11:22.379 --> 00:11:23.060
 and so stop judging.

00:11:23.220 --> 00:11:23.720
 The kind of

00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:24.860
 hypocritical judgment.

00:11:27.700 --> 00:11:28.680
 So let me say this,

00:11:29.340 --> 00:11:30.040
 one of the ways

00:11:30.040 --> 00:11:31.100
 that we frequently do this

00:11:31.100 --> 00:11:32.300
 is actually in gossip.

00:11:35.659 --> 00:11:36.960
 We may not even

00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:37.379
 be conscious

00:11:37.379 --> 00:11:38.080
 that we're doing it,

00:11:38.139 --> 00:11:39.139
 but we may be

00:11:39.139 --> 00:11:40.500
 speaking to someone else

00:11:40.500 --> 00:11:41.899
 about someone else.

00:11:43.899 --> 00:11:45.000
 And we are in some way

00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:46.040
 pulling them down,

00:11:46.220 --> 00:11:46.940
 and that person

00:11:46.940 --> 00:11:48.180
 may agree with us

00:11:48.180 --> 00:11:49.300
 to some degree.

00:11:51.560 --> 00:11:52.360
 So we don't think

00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:52.879
 of it as gossip.

00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:55.120
 Let's stop judging,

00:11:55.220 --> 00:11:55.840
 unless you be judged.

00:11:56.800 --> 00:11:57.540
 So there's a restriction

00:11:57.540 --> 00:11:58.019
 on judging.

00:11:58.680 --> 00:11:59.060
 Secondly,

00:11:59.180 --> 00:11:59.960
 let's see in verse 6,

00:11:59.960 --> 00:12:01.100
 there's the requirement

00:12:01.100 --> 00:12:01.639
 of judging.

00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:04.900
 Requirement of judging.

00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:05.440
 Look at verse 6.

00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:06.960
 Don't give dogs

00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:07.700
 what is holy.

00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:09.160
 Don't throw your pearls

00:12:09.160 --> 00:12:09.780
 before pigs,

00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:10.660
 lest you trample them

00:12:10.660 --> 00:12:12.100
 underfoot

00:12:12.100 --> 00:12:13.920
 and turn to attack you.

00:12:15.820 --> 00:12:16.460
 Don't worry about

00:12:16.460 --> 00:12:17.000
 the meaning of it

00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:17.700
 now for a moment,

00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:18.240
 we'll come back to that.

00:12:18.280 --> 00:12:19.160
 But just notice the language.

00:12:19.320 --> 00:12:19.639
 Do you see

00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:20.840
 what Jesus is saying?

00:12:21.139 --> 00:12:22.120
 He is assuming

00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:23.139
 that you're going to obey

00:12:23.139 --> 00:12:24.139
 whatever it is he means

00:12:24.139 --> 00:12:24.740
 in verse 6.

00:12:24.740 --> 00:12:26.879
 And so,

00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:27.620
 if you're going to

00:12:27.620 --> 00:12:29.039
 obey verse 6,

00:12:29.139 --> 00:12:29.580
 what have you got

00:12:29.580 --> 00:12:30.200
 to work out?

00:12:30.779 --> 00:12:31.659
 You've got to work out

00:12:31.659 --> 00:12:32.759
 who are the dogs

00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:33.799
 and who are the pigs,

00:12:33.980 --> 00:12:34.320
 haven't you?

00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:37.879
 You're going to have

00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:38.340
 to judge,

00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:38.680
 you're going to have

00:12:38.680 --> 00:12:39.240
 to discern.

00:12:40.580 --> 00:12:41.159
 You're going to have

00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:42.240
 to stop judging

00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:44.620
 as he taught you

00:12:44.620 --> 00:12:45.580
 in verses 1-5,

00:12:45.700 --> 00:12:46.480
 a kind of carping,

00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:47.720
 critical, hypocritical

00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:48.440
 kind of judging.

00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:49.240
 But you see,

00:12:49.299 --> 00:12:50.159
 Jesus does balance

00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:50.879
 and in verse 6

00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:51.659
 he's now saying,

00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:52.919
 don't give what is

00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:53.860
 holy to the dogs

00:12:53.860 --> 00:12:55.659
 and don't throw your pearls

00:12:55.659 --> 00:12:56.799
 before the hogs.

00:12:58.039 --> 00:12:59.319
 And so you have to know,

00:12:59.399 --> 00:12:59.860
 don't you,

00:13:00.100 --> 00:13:00.839
 who are the dogs

00:13:00.839 --> 00:13:01.819
 and who are the hogs

00:13:01.819 --> 00:13:03.199
 if you're going to

00:13:03.199 --> 00:13:03.779
 obey this.

00:13:04.980 --> 00:13:06.019
 Jesus is not

00:13:06.019 --> 00:13:06.879
 forbidding all kinds

00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:07.299
 of judgment.

00:13:08.740 --> 00:13:09.360
 He's just putting

00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:10.199
 a balance on what

00:13:10.199 --> 00:13:11.339
 he said in verse 1-5.

00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:13.339
 Much like he does

00:13:13.339 --> 00:13:14.399
 in Proverbs 26.

00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:15.860
 He has got those

00:13:15.860 --> 00:13:16.720
 funny verses in it,

00:13:17.039 --> 00:13:18.319
 two verses back to back.

00:13:19.059 --> 00:13:19.879
 And one of them says,

00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:21.299
 don't answer a fool

00:13:21.299 --> 00:13:22.359
 according to his folly.

00:13:23.539 --> 00:13:24.379
 And then in the very

00:13:24.379 --> 00:13:25.339
 next verse it says,

00:13:25.579 --> 00:13:26.519
 answer a fool

00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:27.620
 according to his folly.

00:13:28.379 --> 00:13:29.139
 And it gives a reason

00:13:29.139 --> 00:13:30.019
 for both those things.

00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:32.079
 It's balancing there,

00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:32.639
 but you need to see

00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:33.500
 the big picture.

00:13:34.859 --> 00:13:35.399
 You have to think

00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:36.319
 there is a paradox.

00:13:36.500 --> 00:13:37.219
 There are two truths

00:13:37.219 --> 00:13:38.240
 which seem contradictory,

00:13:38.459 --> 00:13:39.079
 but actually when you

00:13:39.079 --> 00:13:39.659
 take them together

00:13:39.659 --> 00:13:40.859
 they're both very helpful.

00:13:42.099 --> 00:13:43.179
 There's a sort of judging

00:13:43.179 --> 00:13:44.339
 that you ought to do,

00:13:44.740 --> 00:13:45.759
 and this is the requirement

00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:46.299
 of judging.

00:13:46.299 --> 00:13:49.159
 And so that tells you

00:13:49.159 --> 00:13:49.419
 and I

00:13:49.419 --> 00:13:51.259
 that the mushy,

00:13:51.699 --> 00:13:52.659
 ordinary,

00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:54.539
 bog standard

00:13:54.539 --> 00:13:55.299
 interpretation

00:13:55.299 --> 00:13:56.019
 of verse 1

00:13:56.019 --> 00:13:57.219
 cannot be right.

00:14:00.839 --> 00:14:02.059
 So people shoot off

00:14:02.059 --> 00:14:02.979
 verse 1 all the time,

00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:03.299
 don't they?

00:14:04.979 --> 00:14:05.819
 Maybe you're talking

00:14:05.819 --> 00:14:06.919
 about a public scandal

00:14:06.919 --> 00:14:07.679
 in business

00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:08.459
 or in public,

00:14:09.019 --> 00:14:09.959
 and you state

00:14:09.959 --> 00:14:11.019
 how wrong it is

00:14:11.019 --> 00:14:12.279
 and so unjust,

00:14:12.439 --> 00:14:13.240
 and then somebody

00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:14.099
 comes in and says,

00:14:14.100 --> 00:14:14.779
 the Bible says,

00:14:14.920 --> 00:14:15.519
 judge not

00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:16.480
 and be not judged.

00:14:18.560 --> 00:14:19.320
 Or there's some

00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:20.180
 public teacher

00:14:20.180 --> 00:14:21.340
 in the church

00:14:21.340 --> 00:14:23.259
 and they are rejecting

00:14:23.259 --> 00:14:24.000
 what the Bible

00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:25.240
 is saying on sexuality

00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:26.060
 and homosexuality

00:14:26.060 --> 00:14:26.980
 and they are speaking

00:14:26.980 --> 00:14:28.060
 really clearly

00:14:28.060 --> 00:14:29.600
 against the Bible's message

00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:31.240
 and you state that

00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:33.360
 and somebody comes

00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:34.019
 and says to you,

00:14:34.100 --> 00:14:34.860
 the Bible says,

00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:35.600
 don't judge.

00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:38.420
 Now you see what

00:14:38.420 --> 00:14:38.920
 Jesus is saying

00:14:38.920 --> 00:14:39.460
 in verse 6?

00:14:39.580 --> 00:14:40.200
 There is a kind

00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:40.779
 of discernment,

00:14:40.860 --> 00:14:41.440
 there is a kind

00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:41.759
 of judgment

00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:43.060
 that you have to make.

00:14:44.100 --> 00:14:46.860
 He's not assuming

00:14:46.860 --> 00:14:47.940
 that you have a mind

00:14:47.940 --> 00:14:48.820
 that is kind of

00:14:48.820 --> 00:14:50.840
 morally neutral

00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:52.519
 and mushy.

00:14:52.680 --> 00:14:52.879
 No.

00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:54.940
 He's saying there's

00:14:54.940 --> 00:14:55.680
 a kind of discernment

00:14:55.680 --> 00:14:56.379
 that you have to make.

00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:57.399
 There's a discernment

00:14:57.399 --> 00:14:58.560
 that He wants you to have.

00:14:59.800 --> 00:15:00.360
 Now look at the details.

00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:00.860
 What does He mean

00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:01.460
 by what is holy?

00:15:01.659 --> 00:15:02.360
 And who are the dogs?

00:15:03.060 --> 00:15:04.360
 And what are the pearls?

00:15:04.600 --> 00:15:05.320
 And who are the pigs?

00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:07.560
 Well, so probably this.

00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:09.700
 What is holy

00:15:09.700 --> 00:15:10.720
 refers to anything

00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:12.580
 of the sacred things

00:15:12.580 --> 00:15:13.120
 of God.

00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:15.740
 particularly the gospel

00:15:15.740 --> 00:15:17.940
 and His word

00:15:17.940 --> 00:15:18.560
 about the kingdom

00:15:18.560 --> 00:15:19.679
 that He's been speaking about

00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:20.799
 and the offering

00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:21.799
 of Jesus

00:15:21.799 --> 00:15:22.980
 as the King of the kingdom

00:15:22.980 --> 00:15:25.080
 and the pearls

00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:26.159
 it probably has to do

00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:27.060
 with the treasure

00:15:27.060 --> 00:15:27.519
 of the kingdom,

00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:28.460
 the treasure of the gospel.

00:15:30.019 --> 00:15:30.700
 And He's saying

00:15:30.700 --> 00:15:31.500
 that there are some

00:15:31.500 --> 00:15:32.560
 that are hogs

00:15:32.560 --> 00:15:33.320
 and dogs.

00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:35.860
 Dogs used to be

00:15:35.860 --> 00:15:36.799
 a term that was used

00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:38.039
 for the Gentiles.

00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:39.940
 I don't think

00:15:39.940 --> 00:15:40.460
 He's using it

00:15:40.460 --> 00:15:41.039
 in that way.

00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.579
 But He is taking it

00:15:43.579 --> 00:15:44.740
 He's saying

00:15:44.740 --> 00:15:45.339
 a dog

00:15:45.339 --> 00:15:46.439
 is a pejorative term.

00:15:46.699 --> 00:15:47.639
 It's still used today

00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:48.639
 as a pejorative term.

00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:50.500
 And it's saying

00:15:50.500 --> 00:15:50.919
 they are

00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:53.159
 essentially

00:15:53.159 --> 00:15:54.319
 there are some

00:15:54.319 --> 00:15:58.439
 who are like that.

00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:00.000
 He's not thinking

00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:00.599
 of your pet dog

00:16:00.599 --> 00:16:01.439
 I think on the children's

00:16:01.439 --> 00:16:01.899
 shoot isn't it

00:16:01.899 --> 00:16:02.819
 there's a lovely picture

00:16:02.819 --> 00:16:03.759
 of a retriever

00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:04.559
 or a Labrador

00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:05.459
 or something like that.

00:16:05.460 --> 00:16:07.360
 When He talks about dogs

00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:08.680
 He's not talking

00:16:08.680 --> 00:16:09.480
 about a dog like that.

00:16:09.540 --> 00:16:10.540
 Draw a big pair of fangs

00:16:10.540 --> 00:16:11.180
 on that children.

00:16:12.040 --> 00:16:13.019
 Dogs that go

00:16:13.019 --> 00:16:13.980
 through the rubbish.

00:16:15.560 --> 00:16:16.580
 Dogs that bite

00:16:16.580 --> 00:16:17.700
 and carry rabies.

00:16:17.820 --> 00:16:18.440
 They're not the sort

00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:19.120
 of things that you'd

00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:20.160
 like to have in your house

00:16:20.160 --> 00:16:21.180
 or in your garden

00:16:21.180 --> 00:16:21.900
 or let your kids

00:16:21.900 --> 00:16:22.800
 play with.

00:16:22.860 --> 00:16:23.500
 They're wild.

00:16:24.160 --> 00:16:25.180
 They're not nice

00:16:25.180 --> 00:16:26.120
 to have us.

00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:28.980
 Jesus is saying

00:16:28.980 --> 00:16:30.019
 there are some people

00:16:30.019 --> 00:16:30.820
 they've rejected

00:16:30.820 --> 00:16:31.399
 the gospel

00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:32.840
 and they are so

00:16:32.840 --> 00:16:33.919
 antagonistic

00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:34.580
 with the gospel

00:16:34.580 --> 00:16:36.200
 and anti the gospel

00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:38.259
 that they may

00:16:38.259 --> 00:16:39.039
 tell you so.

00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:40.899
 And they say

00:16:40.899 --> 00:16:41.779
 I don't want to hear.

00:16:42.700 --> 00:16:44.039
 I don't want to hear.

00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:46.600
 And they may say

00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:47.580
 leave me alone.

00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:48.460
 They might say

00:16:48.460 --> 00:16:49.679
 don't even talk

00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:50.860
 about Jesus to me.

00:16:51.100 --> 00:16:51.680
 They may say it

00:16:51.680 --> 00:16:52.299
 very politely

00:16:52.299 --> 00:16:53.379
 in a British kind of way.

00:16:54.419 --> 00:16:55.820
 Don't even invite me

00:16:55.820 --> 00:16:56.280
 to that.

00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:58.260
 I don't want to know

00:16:58.260 --> 00:16:58.900
 anything about the

00:16:58.900 --> 00:16:59.560
 kingdom of God.

00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:00.840
 I don't want anything

00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:01.920
 to do with that.

00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:02.740
 I like you

00:17:02.740 --> 00:17:03.600
 but I can't stand

00:17:03.600 --> 00:17:04.519
 this Jesus stuff.

00:17:05.180 --> 00:17:05.740
 And Jesus says

00:17:05.740 --> 00:17:06.380
 respect them.

00:17:08.100 --> 00:17:09.039
 And leave them alone.

00:17:10.940 --> 00:17:12.180
 Because don't throw

00:17:12.180 --> 00:17:13.380
 what is precious

00:17:13.380 --> 00:17:14.799
 to dogs

00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:16.820
 and hogs

00:17:16.820 --> 00:17:17.680
 who've rejected it.

00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:20.299
 Don't give anything

00:17:20.299 --> 00:17:21.220
 that is sacred

00:17:21.220 --> 00:17:22.740
 to people who despise

00:17:22.740 --> 00:17:23.519
 the sacred things

00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:24.080
 of God.

00:17:25.819 --> 00:17:26.799
 It's not meant

00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:27.279
 to keep us

00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:28.079
 from telling others

00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:28.439
 what they know

00:17:28.439 --> 00:17:28.740
 Jesus.

00:17:30.139 --> 00:17:31.079
 It's mainly saying

00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:31.539
 that there are

00:17:31.539 --> 00:17:32.480
 certain circumstances

00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:33.200
 there are certain

00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:34.139
 people that prefer

00:17:34.139 --> 00:17:35.039
 not to be bothered

00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:37.119
 with the gospel.

00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:38.839
 And when you

00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:39.839
 tell them that

00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:41.980
 leave them to God.

00:17:43.700 --> 00:17:44.319
 That's the kind

00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:44.539
 of thing.

00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:45.299
 You don't give

00:17:45.299 --> 00:17:46.220
 sacred things

00:17:46.220 --> 00:17:46.720
 to people

00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:48.079
 who despise

00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:48.639
 that.

00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:50.939
 And that is what

00:17:50.939 --> 00:17:51.639
 Jesus seems to be

00:17:51.639 --> 00:17:51.939
 saying.

00:17:51.940 --> 00:17:54.299
 And when we

00:17:54.299 --> 00:17:54.860
 do this

00:17:54.860 --> 00:17:55.820
 what do we

00:17:55.820 --> 00:17:56.900
 make of this?

00:17:56.980 --> 00:17:57.660
 Jesus himself

00:17:57.660 --> 00:17:58.160
 when he gives us

00:17:58.160 --> 00:17:58.600
 an example

00:17:58.600 --> 00:17:59.160
 do you remember

00:17:59.160 --> 00:17:59.860
 Luke 23?

00:18:01.220 --> 00:18:01.920
 Jesus comes

00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:02.759
 before Herod

00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:04.680
 and Pilate

00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:05.279
 sent Jesus

00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:06.000
 before Herod

00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:06.620
 and when Herod

00:18:06.620 --> 00:18:07.340
 saw him

00:18:07.340 --> 00:18:08.500
 Luke tells us

00:18:08.500 --> 00:18:08.900
 he was really

00:18:08.900 --> 00:18:09.480
 pleased.

00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:11.620
 Because for a long

00:18:11.620 --> 00:18:12.100
 time he wanted

00:18:12.100 --> 00:18:13.000
 to see Jesus

00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:13.940
 and he hoped

00:18:13.940 --> 00:18:14.440
 that he could

00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:15.019
 see Jesus

00:18:15.019 --> 00:18:15.380
 through some

00:18:15.380 --> 00:18:16.039
 kind of miracle.

00:18:16.559 --> 00:18:17.320
 And so he

00:18:17.320 --> 00:18:18.140
 asked Jesus

00:18:18.140 --> 00:18:19.279
 loads of questions

00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:20.220
 but Jesus gave

00:18:20.220 --> 00:18:21.220
 him no answer.

00:18:21.940 --> 00:18:24.080
 Herod is there

00:18:24.080 --> 00:18:24.759
 he's curious

00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:25.500
 about Jesus

00:18:25.500 --> 00:18:26.340
 but he's not

00:18:26.340 --> 00:18:27.000
 serious about

00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:27.460
 committing his

00:18:27.460 --> 00:18:28.200
 life to Jesus.

00:18:29.600 --> 00:18:30.140
 And so Jesus

00:18:30.140 --> 00:18:31.519
 doesn't go for it.

00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:33.220
 He leaves Herod

00:18:33.220 --> 00:18:33.519
 alone.

00:18:34.940 --> 00:18:35.720
 He doesn't offer

00:18:35.720 --> 00:18:36.240
 to do a little

00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:36.900
 heavenly trick

00:18:36.900 --> 00:18:37.420
 a miracle

00:18:37.420 --> 00:18:38.440
 this will satisfy

00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:39.259
 your curiosity.

00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:40.140
 Herod has got

00:18:40.140 --> 00:18:40.900
 no desire for

00:18:40.900 --> 00:18:41.600
 the truth at all

00:18:41.600 --> 00:18:42.380
 and so Jesus

00:18:42.380 --> 00:18:43.019
 leaves him alone.

00:18:44.779 --> 00:18:45.259
 He doesn't even

00:18:45.259 --> 00:18:46.080
 answer does he?

00:18:47.580 --> 00:18:48.220
 Or the Apostles

00:18:48.220 --> 00:18:49.320
 Lord in Acts 13

00:18:49.320 --> 00:18:50.500
 and Acts 18

00:18:50.500 --> 00:18:51.279
 two different places

00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:51.899
 in Antioch

00:18:51.899 --> 00:18:52.440
 and in Corinth

00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:53.539
 the Jews

00:18:53.539 --> 00:18:54.859
 make so much

00:18:54.859 --> 00:18:55.599
 fuss

00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:57.160
 that they

00:18:57.160 --> 00:18:58.039
 abuse him

00:18:58.039 --> 00:18:58.559
 and Barnabas

00:18:58.559 --> 00:18:59.000
 and Silas

00:18:59.000 --> 00:18:59.299
 and they

00:18:59.299 --> 00:19:00.059
 reject his

00:19:00.059 --> 00:19:00.500
 message

00:19:00.500 --> 00:19:01.200
 and Paul

00:19:01.200 --> 00:19:01.799
 says we

00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:02.500
 had to offer

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:02.920
 the gospel

00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:03.920
 to you first

00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:05.480
 but since you

00:19:05.480 --> 00:19:06.099
 think that you

00:19:06.099 --> 00:19:06.779
 are unworthy

00:19:06.779 --> 00:19:07.799
 of eternal life

00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:09.660
 we turn to the

00:19:09.660 --> 00:19:10.160
 Gentiles.

00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:12.819
 We're turning

00:19:12.819 --> 00:19:13.759
 and taking the

00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:14.500
 gospel away from

00:19:14.500 --> 00:19:14.779
 you

00:19:14.779 --> 00:19:17.039
 and we're giving

00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:17.379
 it to the

00:19:17.379 --> 00:19:17.899
 Gentiles.

00:19:17.900 --> 00:19:21.560
 you see people

00:19:21.560 --> 00:19:22.340
 who don't want

00:19:22.340 --> 00:19:23.440
 to have any

00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:24.040
 truck with the

00:19:24.040 --> 00:19:24.360
 gospel

00:19:24.360 --> 00:19:24.780
 then it's

00:19:24.780 --> 00:19:25.380
 taken from

00:19:25.380 --> 00:19:25.680
 them.

00:19:27.600 --> 00:19:28.200
 Don't throw

00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:28.600
 what is

00:19:28.600 --> 00:19:29.900
 precious to

00:19:29.900 --> 00:19:30.259
 those who

00:19:30.259 --> 00:19:31.040
 despise it.

00:19:31.580 --> 00:19:31.940
 That is

00:19:31.940 --> 00:19:32.580
 Jesus' point.

00:19:33.980 --> 00:19:34.519
 It takes

00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:34.900
 really different

00:19:34.900 --> 00:19:35.340
 forms.

00:19:35.560 --> 00:19:36.560
 In 1555

00:19:36.560 --> 00:19:37.320
 John Calvin

00:19:37.320 --> 00:19:38.340
 was in the

00:19:38.340 --> 00:19:38.940
 city of Geneva

00:19:38.940 --> 00:19:39.240
 and he was

00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:39.759
 having a problem.

00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:41.820
 There was a

00:19:41.820 --> 00:19:42.320
 man who was

00:19:42.320 --> 00:19:43.060
 notoriously

00:19:43.060 --> 00:19:43.620
 immoral

00:19:43.620 --> 00:19:44.640
 and drunk

00:19:44.640 --> 00:19:45.960
 and the

00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:46.440
 elders of

00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:46.740
 the church

00:19:46.740 --> 00:19:47.140
 along with

00:19:47.140 --> 00:19:47.360
 Calvin

00:19:47.360 --> 00:19:48.580
 they excommunicated

00:19:48.580 --> 00:19:49.320
 him because

00:19:49.320 --> 00:19:49.900
 of his

00:19:49.900 --> 00:19:50.480
 conduct.

00:19:51.780 --> 00:19:52.160
 He was

00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:53.020
 banned from

00:19:53.020 --> 00:19:53.460
 the Lord's

00:19:53.460 --> 00:19:53.680
 Supper.

00:19:55.180 --> 00:19:55.560
 But the

00:19:55.560 --> 00:19:56.560
 civil magistrates

00:19:56.560 --> 00:19:57.040
 the city

00:19:57.040 --> 00:19:57.560
 officials

00:19:57.560 --> 00:19:59.380
 they overturned

00:19:59.380 --> 00:19:59.880
 that decision

00:19:59.880 --> 00:20:00.420
 of the elders

00:20:00.420 --> 00:20:01.240
 and they gave

00:20:01.240 --> 00:20:01.759
 this fellow

00:20:01.759 --> 00:20:03.940
 the right

00:20:03.940 --> 00:20:05.080
 to partake

00:20:05.080 --> 00:20:05.460
 of communion

00:20:05.460 --> 00:20:05.840
 again.

00:20:07.180 --> 00:20:07.759
 The day

00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:08.700
 came on

00:20:08.700 --> 00:20:09.320
 a September

00:20:09.320 --> 00:20:09.759
 morning

00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:10.780
 it was

00:20:10.780 --> 00:20:11.120
 communion

00:20:11.120 --> 00:20:11.580
 Sunday

00:20:11.580 --> 00:20:13.040
 and after

00:20:13.040 --> 00:20:13.720
 Calvin preached

00:20:13.720 --> 00:20:14.060
 his sermon

00:20:14.059 --> 00:20:14.379
 when he went

00:20:14.379 --> 00:20:14.799
 down from

00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:15.279
 the pulpit

00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:16.440
 and thinking

00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:16.839
 that this

00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:17.079
 guy

00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:17.779
 John Bethelier

00:20:17.779 --> 00:20:18.480
 was in

00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:19.139
 the audience

00:20:19.139 --> 00:20:19.740
 and that

00:20:19.740 --> 00:20:20.099
 he would

00:20:20.099 --> 00:20:20.659
 want to

00:20:20.659 --> 00:20:21.019
 come to

00:20:21.019 --> 00:20:21.460
 the table

00:20:21.460 --> 00:20:22.179
 to defy

00:20:22.179 --> 00:20:22.500
 him

00:20:22.500 --> 00:20:23.539
 Calvin said

00:20:23.539 --> 00:20:23.839
 to the

00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:24.119
 people

00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:25.480
 I have

00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:26.019
 prayed to

00:20:26.019 --> 00:20:26.460
 the Lord

00:20:26.460 --> 00:20:27.279
 for firmness

00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:27.779
 and my

00:20:27.779 --> 00:20:28.220
 prayer has

00:20:28.220 --> 00:20:28.779
 been answered.

00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:30.039
 And he

00:20:30.039 --> 00:20:30.419
 told them

00:20:30.419 --> 00:20:30.960
 if anyone

00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:31.200
 who had

00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:31.740
 been banned

00:20:31.740 --> 00:20:32.079
 from the

00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:32.399
 Lord's

00:20:32.399 --> 00:20:32.559
 Supper

00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:33.000
 should come

00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:33.440
 forward

00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:33.879
 to try

00:20:33.879 --> 00:20:34.460
 to partake

00:20:34.460 --> 00:20:34.779
 of that

00:20:34.779 --> 00:20:35.079
 supper

00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:36.200
 Calvin said

00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:36.579
 I will

00:20:36.579 --> 00:20:37.039
 do what

00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:37.460
 the clear

00:20:37.460 --> 00:20:37.859
 command

00:20:37.859 --> 00:20:38.179
 of my

00:20:38.179 --> 00:20:38.579
 master

00:20:38.579 --> 00:20:39.299
 requires me

00:20:39.299 --> 00:20:39.720
 to do.

00:20:40.500 --> 00:20:40.859
 And then

00:20:40.859 --> 00:20:41.460
 raising his

00:20:41.460 --> 00:20:42.159
 voice and

00:20:42.159 --> 00:20:42.779
 stretching out

00:20:42.779 --> 00:20:43.220
 his hands

00:20:43.220 --> 00:20:43.700
 he said

00:20:44.059 --> 00:20:44.619
 lay down

00:20:44.619 --> 00:20:45.259
 my life

00:20:45.259 --> 00:20:45.980
 before

00:20:45.980 --> 00:20:46.940
 these hands

00:20:46.940 --> 00:20:47.859
 shall reach

00:20:47.859 --> 00:20:48.500
 forth for

00:20:48.500 --> 00:20:49.019
 the sacred

00:20:49.019 --> 00:20:49.539
 things of

00:20:49.539 --> 00:20:49.960
 God

00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:50.859
 to those

00:20:50.859 --> 00:20:51.059
 who have

00:20:51.059 --> 00:20:51.519
 been branded

00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:52.539
 as despisers.

00:20:55.339 --> 00:20:56.200
 John Bethelier

00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:56.639
 didn't come

00:20:56.639 --> 00:20:58.639
 because he had

00:20:58.639 --> 00:20:58.940
 to make a

00:20:58.940 --> 00:20:59.359
 stand didn't

00:20:59.359 --> 00:20:59.740
 he Calvin?

00:21:01.039 --> 00:21:01.759
 He was a

00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:03.059
 man who

00:21:03.059 --> 00:21:03.980
 cared for

00:21:03.980 --> 00:21:04.419
 the things

00:21:04.419 --> 00:21:05.000
 of God

00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:08.039
 and so

00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:08.720
 there may

00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:09.279
 well be

00:21:09.279 --> 00:21:09.559
 I think

00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:10.059
 there probably

00:21:10.059 --> 00:21:10.500
 is going

00:21:10.500 --> 00:21:10.759
 to be

00:21:10.759 --> 00:21:11.179
 in your

00:21:11.179 --> 00:21:11.619
 dealings

00:21:11.619 --> 00:21:11.960
 with people

00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:12.220
 there will

00:21:12.220 --> 00:21:12.659
 be somebody

00:21:12.659 --> 00:21:13.059
 who says

00:21:13.059 --> 00:21:13.940
 point blank

00:21:13.940 --> 00:21:14.279
 to you

00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:14.700
 I want

00:21:14.700 --> 00:21:15.400
 no more

00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:15.660
 of your

00:21:15.660 --> 00:21:16.100
 witness

00:21:16.100 --> 00:21:17.920
 I don't

00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:18.700
 want any

00:21:18.700 --> 00:21:19.160
 more of

00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:19.320
 your

00:21:19.320 --> 00:21:19.880
 Christianity

00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:21.299
 and I

00:21:21.299 --> 00:21:21.700
 think Jesus

00:21:21.700 --> 00:21:22.019
 is teaching

00:21:22.019 --> 00:21:22.259
 us here

00:21:22.259 --> 00:21:22.620
 we have

00:21:22.620 --> 00:21:23.220
 to respect

00:21:23.220 --> 00:21:23.640
 that

00:21:23.640 --> 00:21:26.059
 don't

00:21:26.059 --> 00:21:26.620
 cast the

00:21:26.620 --> 00:21:27.380
 pearls of

00:21:27.380 --> 00:21:28.080
 the gospel

00:21:28.080 --> 00:21:28.980
 before those

00:21:28.980 --> 00:21:29.200
 who will

00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:29.620
 have none

00:21:29.620 --> 00:21:29.980
 of it

00:21:29.980 --> 00:21:31.680
 and tell

00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:32.039
 you that

00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:35.500
 but verse

00:21:35.500 --> 00:21:35.840
 six is

00:21:35.840 --> 00:21:37.620
 also a

00:21:37.620 --> 00:21:38.180
 terrifying

00:21:38.180 --> 00:21:38.820
 warning

00:21:38.819 --> 00:21:41.539
 because it

00:21:41.539 --> 00:21:42.339
 shows you

00:21:42.339 --> 00:21:42.659
 and I

00:21:42.659 --> 00:21:43.519
 how far

00:21:43.519 --> 00:21:44.539
 antagonism

00:21:44.539 --> 00:21:44.839
 to the

00:21:44.839 --> 00:21:45.139
 gospel

00:21:45.139 --> 00:21:45.759
 can go

00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.720
 how far

00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:50.000
 it can

00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:50.559
 take you

00:21:50.559 --> 00:21:50.980
 it can

00:21:50.980 --> 00:21:51.259
 give you

00:21:51.259 --> 00:21:51.759
 the nature

00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:52.240
 of a

00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:52.879
 pig

00:21:52.879 --> 00:21:53.359
 or a

00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:53.740
 dog

00:21:53.740 --> 00:21:56.319
 and that

00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:56.679
 ought to

00:21:56.679 --> 00:21:58.279
 be to you

00:21:58.279 --> 00:21:58.700
 a great

00:21:58.700 --> 00:21:59.159
 warning

00:21:59.159 --> 00:22:01.759
 that you

00:22:01.759 --> 00:22:02.159
 can put

00:22:02.159 --> 00:22:02.500
 yourself

00:22:02.500 --> 00:22:02.879
 in such

00:22:02.879 --> 00:22:03.419
 resistance

00:22:03.419 --> 00:22:04.359
 and antagonism

00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:04.659
 to the

00:22:04.659 --> 00:22:04.960
 gospel

00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:05.299
 that it

00:22:05.299 --> 00:22:05.640
 can put

00:22:05.640 --> 00:22:05.819
 you

00:22:05.819 --> 00:22:06.420
 beyond

00:22:06.420 --> 00:22:06.660
 the

00:22:06.660 --> 00:22:06.960
 hope

00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:07.200
 of

00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:07.700
 responding

00:22:07.700 --> 00:22:08.180
 to it

00:22:08.180 --> 00:22:10.960
 that if

00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:11.140
 you

00:22:11.140 --> 00:22:11.700
 harden

00:22:11.700 --> 00:22:12.079
 your

00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:12.700
 heart

00:22:12.700 --> 00:22:13.259
 one day

00:22:13.259 --> 00:22:13.559
 God

00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:13.980
 will say

00:22:13.980 --> 00:22:14.220
 enough

00:22:14.220 --> 00:22:14.360
 is

00:22:14.360 --> 00:22:14.720
 enough

00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:17.299
 and if

00:22:17.299 --> 00:22:17.460
 you

00:22:17.460 --> 00:22:18.039
 continually

00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:19.319
 and persistently

00:22:19.319 --> 00:22:21.240
 refuse

00:22:21.240 --> 00:22:21.920
 the gospel

00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:24.039
 and maintain

00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:25.000
 that stance

00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:25.920
 you are

00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:26.480
 on your

00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:27.000
 way

00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:29.620
 to the

00:22:29.620 --> 00:22:30.059
 kind of

00:22:30.059 --> 00:22:30.680
 antagonism

00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:30.980
 to the

00:22:30.980 --> 00:22:31.200
 truth

00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:31.500
 that will

00:22:31.500 --> 00:22:32.100
 place you

00:22:32.100 --> 00:22:32.400
 in a

00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:32.680
 place

00:22:32.680 --> 00:22:32.860
 where

00:22:32.860 --> 00:22:33.019
 you're

00:22:33.019 --> 00:22:33.180
 not

00:22:33.180 --> 00:22:33.400
 even

00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:35.240
 able

00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:35.660
 to hear

00:22:35.660 --> 00:22:35.840
 the

00:22:35.840 --> 00:22:36.140
 gospel

00:22:36.140 --> 00:22:36.600
 anymore

00:22:36.600 --> 00:22:39.160
 and you

00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:39.380
 need to

00:22:39.380 --> 00:22:39.720
 be aware

00:22:39.720 --> 00:22:40.120
 of that

00:22:40.120 --> 00:22:42.040
 thirdly

00:22:42.040 --> 00:22:43.280
 Jesus

00:22:43.280 --> 00:22:43.560
 says

00:22:43.560 --> 00:22:43.700
 there's

00:22:43.700 --> 00:22:43.980
 not only

00:22:43.980 --> 00:22:44.100
 a

00:22:44.100 --> 00:22:44.460
 restriction

00:22:44.460 --> 00:22:44.700
 on

00:22:44.700 --> 00:22:45.040
 judging

00:22:45.040 --> 00:22:45.780
 and the

00:22:45.780 --> 00:22:46.160
 requirement

00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:46.340
 of

00:22:46.340 --> 00:22:46.560
 judging

00:22:46.560 --> 00:22:47.140
 but thirdly

00:22:47.140 --> 00:22:47.360
 there's

00:22:47.360 --> 00:22:47.480
 the

00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:47.920
 resources

00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:48.200
 for

00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:48.420
 judging

00:22:48.420 --> 00:22:50.380
 and as

00:22:50.380 --> 00:22:50.680
 you look

00:22:50.680 --> 00:22:50.940
 at those

00:22:50.940 --> 00:22:51.280
 verses

00:22:51.280 --> 00:22:51.840
 it says

00:22:51.840 --> 00:22:52.259
 ask

00:22:52.259 --> 00:22:52.980
 and it will

00:22:52.980 --> 00:22:53.259
 be given

00:22:53.259 --> 00:22:53.519
 to you

00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:53.720
 seek

00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:53.960
 and you

00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:54.100
 will

00:22:54.100 --> 00:22:54.500
 find

00:22:54.500 --> 00:22:54.900
 knock

00:22:54.900 --> 00:22:55.440
 and the

00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:55.600
 door

00:22:55.600 --> 00:22:55.720
 will

00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:55.840
 be

00:22:55.840 --> 00:22:56.040
 open

00:22:56.040 --> 00:22:56.480
 to you

00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:58.200
 and we

00:22:58.200 --> 00:22:58.580
 love those

00:22:58.580 --> 00:22:58.880
 verses

00:22:58.880 --> 00:22:59.400
 but when

00:22:59.400 --> 00:22:59.740
 you look

00:22:59.740 --> 00:22:59.960
 at them

00:22:59.960 --> 00:23:00.360
 in the

00:23:00.360 --> 00:23:01.080
 context

00:23:01.080 --> 00:23:01.820
 of what

00:23:01.820 --> 00:23:02.700
 it says

00:23:02.700 --> 00:23:04.019
 you say

00:23:04.019 --> 00:23:04.840
 why does

00:23:04.840 --> 00:23:05.380
 Jesus do

00:23:05.380 --> 00:23:05.700
 that

00:23:05.700 --> 00:23:06.140
 what is

00:23:06.140 --> 00:23:06.340
 he on

00:23:06.340 --> 00:23:06.640
 about

00:23:06.640 --> 00:23:08.660
 can you

00:23:08.660 --> 00:23:08.980
 see the

00:23:08.980 --> 00:23:09.279
 connection

00:23:09.279 --> 00:23:09.539
 between

00:23:09.539 --> 00:23:09.819
 verses

00:23:09.819 --> 00:23:10.580
 5 and

00:23:10.580 --> 00:23:10.819
 6

00:23:10.819 --> 00:23:11.019
 what

00:23:11.019 --> 00:23:11.259
 Jesus

00:23:11.259 --> 00:23:11.600
 is doing

00:23:11.600 --> 00:23:11.940
 here

00:23:11.940 --> 00:23:12.980
 it's

00:23:12.980 --> 00:23:13.140
 not

00:23:13.140 --> 00:23:13.440
 really

00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:14.240
 disconnected

00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:17.460
 if you look

00:23:17.460 --> 00:23:17.700
 at verses

00:23:17.700 --> 00:23:18.240
 1 to 6

00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:19.640
 how can I

00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:19.980
 do that

00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:20.480
 how can I

00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:20.900
 have the

00:23:20.900 --> 00:23:21.220
 knowledge

00:23:21.220 --> 00:23:21.620
 to do

00:23:21.620 --> 00:23:21.960
 that

00:23:21.960 --> 00:23:23.019
 how can I

00:23:23.019 --> 00:23:23.640
 live in

00:23:23.640 --> 00:23:24.380
 that way

00:23:24.380 --> 00:23:25.700
 how can I

00:23:25.700 --> 00:23:26.340
 be aware

00:23:26.340 --> 00:23:27.000
 of the

00:23:27.000 --> 00:23:27.620
 log that's

00:23:27.620 --> 00:23:27.940
 in my

00:23:27.940 --> 00:23:28.299
 own

00:23:28.299 --> 00:23:28.600
 eye

00:23:28.600 --> 00:23:29.059
 so that I

00:23:29.059 --> 00:23:29.480
 don't judge

00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:30.279
 blindly

00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:30.900
 without seeing

00:23:30.900 --> 00:23:31.559
 my faults

00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:32.599
 that's a

00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:32.940
 question you

00:23:32.940 --> 00:23:33.220
 might have

00:23:33.220 --> 00:23:33.460
 or you

00:23:33.460 --> 00:23:33.700
 might have

00:23:33.700 --> 00:23:33.960
 a question

00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:34.759
 how can I

00:23:34.759 --> 00:23:35.379
 discern

00:23:35.379 --> 00:23:36.419
 how on earth

00:23:36.419 --> 00:23:36.779
 can you

00:23:36.779 --> 00:23:37.319
 tell

00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:39.220
 whether or

00:23:39.220 --> 00:23:39.799
 not someone

00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:40.940
 is despising

00:23:40.940 --> 00:23:41.419
 the sacred

00:23:41.419 --> 00:23:41.839
 things of

00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:42.119
 God and

00:23:42.119 --> 00:23:42.440
 the gospel

00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:43.139
 how do you

00:23:43.139 --> 00:23:43.619
 know when I

00:23:43.619 --> 00:23:43.919
 should leave

00:23:43.919 --> 00:23:44.359
 them alone

00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:46.339
 how can I

00:23:46.339 --> 00:23:46.679
 know the

00:23:46.679 --> 00:23:47.460
 difference between

00:23:47.460 --> 00:23:48.480
 improper

00:23:48.480 --> 00:23:49.220
 critical

00:23:49.220 --> 00:23:50.259
 condemning

00:23:50.259 --> 00:23:50.659
 kind of

00:23:50.659 --> 00:23:51.019
 judging

00:23:51.019 --> 00:23:51.960
 and somebody

00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:52.359
 having a

00:23:52.359 --> 00:23:53.359
 true discernment

00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:54.419
 of their

00:23:54.419 --> 00:23:55.099
 true state

00:23:55.099 --> 00:23:56.960
 how can I

00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:57.359
 distinguish

00:23:57.359 --> 00:23:57.859
 between that

00:23:57.859 --> 00:23:58.099
 and you've

00:23:58.099 --> 00:23:58.500
 got all these

00:23:58.500 --> 00:23:58.919
 questions

00:23:58.919 --> 00:23:59.460
 and so Jesus

00:23:59.460 --> 00:24:00.019
 says to you

00:24:00.019 --> 00:24:00.339
 doesn't he

00:24:00.339 --> 00:24:00.799
 verse 7

00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:01.799
 ask and

00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:02.019
 it will be

00:24:02.019 --> 00:24:02.359
 given to

00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:02.480
 you

00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:02.839
 seek and

00:24:02.839 --> 00:24:03.039
 you will

00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:03.599
 find knock

00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:03.839
 and the

00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:04.119
 door will

00:24:04.119 --> 00:24:04.359
 be opened

00:24:04.359 --> 00:24:04.779
 to you

00:24:04.779 --> 00:24:06.559
 how can I

00:24:06.559 --> 00:24:06.899
 know the

00:24:06.899 --> 00:24:07.480
 difference

00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:09.259
 and know

00:24:09.259 --> 00:24:09.539
 Jesus'

00:24:09.700 --> 00:24:10.019
 words and

00:24:10.019 --> 00:24:10.240
 Jesus

00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:10.839
 ask

00:24:10.839 --> 00:24:13.559
 pray to

00:24:13.559 --> 00:24:14.200
 the father

00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:16.099
 that is the

00:24:16.099 --> 00:24:16.519
 way that you

00:24:16.519 --> 00:24:17.339
 receive the

00:24:17.339 --> 00:24:18.000
 discernment

00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:19.039
 and understanding

00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:19.899
 that you need

00:24:19.899 --> 00:24:20.819
 in order to

00:24:20.819 --> 00:24:21.339
 obey Jesus'

00:24:21.500 --> 00:24:21.960
 commands

00:24:21.960 --> 00:24:23.799
 it's the same

00:24:23.799 --> 00:24:24.059
 thing in

00:24:24.059 --> 00:24:24.559
 James 1

00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:25.980
 James 1

00:24:25.980 --> 00:24:26.359
 verse 5

00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:27.659
 if any one of

00:24:27.659 --> 00:24:28.220
 you lacks

00:24:28.220 --> 00:24:28.740
 wisdom

00:24:28.740 --> 00:24:29.740
 then he'll

00:24:29.740 --> 00:24:30.220
 ask of

00:24:30.220 --> 00:24:30.440
 God

00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:30.759
 and he'll

00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:31.079
 liberally

00:24:31.079 --> 00:24:31.539
 give it

00:24:31.539 --> 00:24:32.380
 and when you

00:24:32.380 --> 00:24:32.720
 read that

00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:33.000
 you think

00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:33.700
 that's come

00:24:33.700 --> 00:24:33.900
 out of

00:24:33.900 --> 00:24:34.259
 nowhere

00:24:34.259 --> 00:24:36.360
 but before

00:24:36.360 --> 00:24:36.600
 that

00:24:36.600 --> 00:24:37.140
 Jesus has

00:24:37.140 --> 00:24:37.440
 said

00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:38.140
 count it

00:24:38.140 --> 00:24:38.880
 all joy

00:24:38.880 --> 00:24:39.740
 brothers

00:24:39.740 --> 00:24:40.539
 and sisters

00:24:40.539 --> 00:24:41.120
 if you fall

00:24:41.120 --> 00:24:41.740
 into various

00:24:41.740 --> 00:24:42.240
 sorrows

00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:42.980
 and so on

00:24:42.980 --> 00:24:44.819
 so why did

00:24:44.819 --> 00:24:45.519
 James say

00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:46.120
 if any of you

00:24:46.120 --> 00:24:46.759
 lack wisdom

00:24:46.759 --> 00:24:47.380
 let him ask

00:24:47.380 --> 00:24:47.620
 of God

00:24:47.620 --> 00:24:47.900
 it's all

00:24:47.900 --> 00:24:48.279
 connected

00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:50.160
 James is

00:24:50.160 --> 00:24:50.460
 saying if

00:24:50.460 --> 00:24:50.740
 you fall

00:24:50.740 --> 00:24:51.339
 into trial

00:24:51.339 --> 00:24:53.279
 it's not

00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:53.799
 that that you

00:24:53.799 --> 00:24:54.480
 need deliverance

00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:55.279
 from right

00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:55.660
 away

00:24:55.660 --> 00:24:56.500
 but you need

00:24:56.500 --> 00:24:56.740
 to know

00:24:56.740 --> 00:24:57.000
 how to

00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:57.620
 endure it

00:24:57.619 --> 00:24:59.059
 you need

00:24:59.059 --> 00:24:59.299
 to know

00:24:59.299 --> 00:24:59.559
 how to

00:24:59.559 --> 00:25:00.119
 go through

00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:00.779
 suffering

00:25:00.779 --> 00:25:01.639
 you need

00:25:01.639 --> 00:25:01.819
 to know

00:25:01.819 --> 00:25:02.099
 how are

00:25:02.099 --> 00:25:02.279
 you going

00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:02.459
 to be

00:25:02.459 --> 00:25:03.079
 steadfast

00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:03.739
 and faithful

00:25:03.739 --> 00:25:04.219
 to Jesus

00:25:04.219 --> 00:25:04.939
 and count it

00:25:04.939 --> 00:25:05.399
 all joy

00:25:05.399 --> 00:25:05.799
 in the midst

00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:06.519
 of trials

00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:07.979
 well if

00:25:07.979 --> 00:25:08.159
 anyone

00:25:08.159 --> 00:25:08.459
 lacks

00:25:08.459 --> 00:25:09.279
 let him

00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:09.619
 ask of

00:25:09.619 --> 00:25:09.979
 God

00:25:09.979 --> 00:25:11.459
 and it's

00:25:11.459 --> 00:25:11.819
 connected

00:25:11.819 --> 00:25:12.159
 and it's

00:25:12.159 --> 00:25:12.459
 the same

00:25:12.459 --> 00:25:12.839
 as it is

00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:13.019
 here

00:25:13.019 --> 00:25:13.519
 what Jesus

00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:14.079
 is doing

00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:14.819
 here though

00:25:14.819 --> 00:25:15.159
 in the way

00:25:15.159 --> 00:25:15.639
 that he speaks

00:25:15.639 --> 00:25:15.959
 is he's

00:25:15.959 --> 00:25:16.319
 trying to

00:25:16.319 --> 00:25:17.000
 give you

00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:18.599
 more than

00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:19.179
 the fact

00:25:19.179 --> 00:25:19.659
 that you

00:25:19.659 --> 00:25:20.519
 should go

00:25:20.519 --> 00:25:21.019
 on believing

00:25:21.019 --> 00:25:21.500
 and asking

00:25:21.500 --> 00:25:22.059
 in prayer

00:25:22.059 --> 00:25:24.619
 he's

00:25:24.619 --> 00:25:24.839
 trying to

00:25:24.839 --> 00:25:25.240
 encourage

00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:25.759
 you

00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:27.919
 look at

00:25:27.919 --> 00:25:28.059
 what he

00:25:28.059 --> 00:25:28.240
 says

00:25:28.240 --> 00:25:28.659
 in verse 9

00:25:28.659 --> 00:25:29.019
 to 11

00:25:29.019 --> 00:25:31.240
 or which

00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:31.559
 of you

00:25:31.559 --> 00:25:32.000
 if his

00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:32.319
 son

00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:32.940
 asks him

00:25:32.940 --> 00:25:33.299
 for bread

00:25:33.299 --> 00:25:33.460
 will you

00:25:33.460 --> 00:25:33.619
 give him

00:25:33.619 --> 00:25:34.000
 a stone

00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:34.200
 or if

00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:34.539
 he asks

00:25:34.539 --> 00:25:34.779
 for a

00:25:34.779 --> 00:25:35.079
 fish

00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:35.379
 will you

00:25:35.379 --> 00:25:35.599
 give him

00:25:35.599 --> 00:25:36.019
 a servant

00:25:36.019 --> 00:25:37.419
 and if

00:25:37.419 --> 00:25:37.759
 you then

00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:38.419
 are evil

00:25:38.419 --> 00:25:38.819
 and you

00:25:38.819 --> 00:25:39.099
 know how

00:25:39.099 --> 00:25:39.319
 to give

00:25:39.319 --> 00:25:39.539
 good

00:25:39.539 --> 00:25:39.839
 gifts

00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:40.099
 to your

00:25:40.099 --> 00:25:40.339
 children

00:25:40.339 --> 00:25:40.700
 how much

00:25:40.700 --> 00:25:40.899
 more

00:25:40.899 --> 00:25:41.159
 will your

00:25:41.159 --> 00:25:41.500
 father

00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:41.759
 who's

00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:41.899
 in

00:25:41.899 --> 00:25:42.079
 heaven

00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:42.359
 give

00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:42.579
 good

00:25:42.579 --> 00:25:42.919
 things

00:25:42.919 --> 00:25:43.359
 to those

00:25:43.359 --> 00:25:43.759
 who ask

00:25:43.759 --> 00:25:43.960
 him

00:25:43.960 --> 00:25:45.559
 notice

00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:45.859
 how he

00:25:45.859 --> 00:25:46.259
 describes

00:25:46.259 --> 00:25:46.700
 earthly

00:25:46.700 --> 00:25:47.259
 fathers

00:25:47.259 --> 00:25:47.819
 he says

00:25:47.819 --> 00:25:48.159
 they are

00:25:48.159 --> 00:25:48.700
 evil

00:25:48.700 --> 00:25:51.279
 if you

00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:51.639
 then being

00:25:51.639 --> 00:25:51.879
 evil

00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:52.140
 that's

00:25:52.140 --> 00:25:52.340
 Jesus'

00:25:52.520 --> 00:25:52.900
 assessment

00:25:52.900 --> 00:25:53.320
 of my

00:25:53.320 --> 00:25:53.560
 nature

00:25:53.560 --> 00:25:54.040
 and yours

00:25:54.040 --> 00:25:56.720
 Jesus

00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:56.920
 says

00:25:56.920 --> 00:25:57.100
 you have

00:25:57.100 --> 00:25:57.520
 a sinful

00:25:57.520 --> 00:25:57.860
 human

00:25:57.860 --> 00:25:58.280
 nature

00:25:58.280 --> 00:25:58.640
 and that

00:25:58.640 --> 00:25:58.820
 is what

00:25:58.820 --> 00:25:59.380
 he means

00:25:59.380 --> 00:26:01.280
 and if

00:26:01.280 --> 00:26:01.580
 you think

00:26:01.580 --> 00:26:01.940
 that men

00:26:01.940 --> 00:26:02.160
 and women

00:26:02.160 --> 00:26:02.520
 and boys

00:26:02.520 --> 00:26:02.840
 and girls

00:26:02.840 --> 00:26:03.700
 are basically

00:26:03.700 --> 00:26:04.680
 constituted as

00:26:04.680 --> 00:26:05.220
 good

00:26:05.220 --> 00:26:06.300
 well you

00:26:06.300 --> 00:26:06.640
 don't agree

00:26:06.640 --> 00:26:07.060
 with Jesus

00:26:07.060 --> 00:26:08.340
 he assumed

00:26:08.340 --> 00:26:08.580
 it

00:26:08.580 --> 00:26:10.100
 he said

00:26:10.100 --> 00:26:10.280
 to his

00:26:10.280 --> 00:26:10.580
 disciples

00:26:10.580 --> 00:26:10.940
 if you

00:26:10.940 --> 00:26:11.300
 then being

00:26:11.300 --> 00:26:11.660
 evil

00:26:11.660 --> 00:26:12.040
 he doesn't

00:26:12.040 --> 00:26:12.220
 mean

00:26:12.220 --> 00:26:12.700
 that you're

00:26:12.700 --> 00:26:13.060
 as evil

00:26:13.060 --> 00:26:13.300
 as you

00:26:13.300 --> 00:26:13.560
 possibly

00:26:13.560 --> 00:26:13.960
 could be

00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:14.340
 of course

00:26:14.340 --> 00:26:14.620
 not

00:26:14.620 --> 00:26:15.220
 but he

00:26:15.220 --> 00:26:15.420
 does

00:26:15.420 --> 00:26:15.660
 mean

00:26:15.660 --> 00:26:16.060
 that you

00:26:16.060 --> 00:26:16.460
 and I

00:26:16.460 --> 00:26:17.020
 and I

00:26:17.020 --> 00:26:17.460
 have this

00:26:17.460 --> 00:26:18.040
 root of

00:26:18.040 --> 00:26:18.360
 evil

00:26:18.360 --> 00:26:18.780
 and sin

00:26:18.780 --> 00:26:19.240
 within me

00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:19.800
 if you

00:26:19.800 --> 00:26:20.200
 then being

00:26:20.200 --> 00:26:20.500
 evil

00:26:20.500 --> 00:26:20.839
 see the

00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:21.319
 contrast

00:26:21.319 --> 00:26:23.359
 if you

00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:23.599
 have the

00:26:23.599 --> 00:26:24.279
 competence

00:26:24.279 --> 00:26:25.200
 and even

00:26:25.200 --> 00:26:25.599
 enough

00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:26.099
 natural

00:26:26.099 --> 00:26:26.539
 affection

00:26:26.539 --> 00:26:26.980
 to play

00:26:26.980 --> 00:26:27.759
 not to

00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:28.359
 play tricks

00:26:28.359 --> 00:26:28.740
 on your

00:26:28.740 --> 00:26:28.980
 own

00:26:28.980 --> 00:26:29.559
 sons and

00:26:29.559 --> 00:26:29.900
 daughters

00:26:29.900 --> 00:26:30.960
 how much

00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:31.420
 more will

00:26:31.420 --> 00:26:31.859
 your heavenly

00:26:31.859 --> 00:26:32.480
 father give

00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:32.980
 to those

00:26:32.980 --> 00:26:33.819
 who ask

00:26:33.819 --> 00:26:34.079
 him

00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:36.099
 what's

00:26:36.099 --> 00:26:36.319
 Jesus

00:26:36.319 --> 00:26:36.839
 saying

00:26:36.839 --> 00:26:37.420
 he's

00:26:37.420 --> 00:26:37.559
 saying

00:26:37.559 --> 00:26:37.880
 one of

00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:38.240
 you dads

00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:38.599
 wouldn't do

00:26:38.599 --> 00:26:38.819
 something

00:26:38.819 --> 00:26:39.339
 like this

00:26:39.339 --> 00:26:41.139
 your son

00:26:41.139 --> 00:26:41.559
 comes in

00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:41.740
 you've

00:26:41.740 --> 00:26:42.259
 spent all

00:26:42.259 --> 00:26:42.679
 afternoon

00:26:42.679 --> 00:26:43.379
 decorating

00:26:43.379 --> 00:26:44.240
 a stone

00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:45.779
 as a

00:26:45.779 --> 00:26:46.199
 piece of

00:26:46.199 --> 00:26:46.679
 bread

00:26:46.679 --> 00:26:47.679
 and your

00:26:47.679 --> 00:26:48.319
 son comes

00:26:48.319 --> 00:26:48.639
 in and

00:26:48.639 --> 00:26:48.899
 says

00:26:48.899 --> 00:26:49.859
 can I

00:26:49.859 --> 00:26:50.099
 have one

00:26:50.099 --> 00:26:50.359
 of those

00:26:50.359 --> 00:26:50.819
 rolls

00:26:50.819 --> 00:26:51.419
 and you

00:26:51.419 --> 00:26:51.799
 say yeah

00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:52.199
 take the

00:26:52.199 --> 00:26:52.720
 chop one

00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:53.500
 and your

00:26:53.500 --> 00:26:53.919
 son is so

00:26:53.919 --> 00:26:54.179
 hungry

00:26:54.179 --> 00:26:54.459
 that he

00:26:54.459 --> 00:26:54.939
 picks it

00:26:54.939 --> 00:26:55.139
 up and

00:26:55.139 --> 00:26:55.659
 he doesn't

00:26:55.659 --> 00:26:56.079
 realise

00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:56.459
 that it's

00:26:56.459 --> 00:26:56.759
 a piece

00:26:56.759 --> 00:26:57.139
 of stone

00:26:57.139 --> 00:26:57.480
 and he

00:26:57.480 --> 00:26:58.419
 bites into

00:26:58.419 --> 00:26:58.720
 it

00:26:58.720 --> 00:26:59.500
 and he

00:26:59.500 --> 00:26:59.919
 breaks

00:26:59.919 --> 00:27:00.659
 three teeth

00:27:00.659 --> 00:27:00.959
 and you

00:27:00.959 --> 00:27:01.199
 say

00:27:01.199 --> 00:27:03.179
 it's a

00:27:03.179 --> 00:27:03.679
 stone

00:27:03.679 --> 00:27:05.319
 you thought

00:27:05.319 --> 00:27:05.819
 it was bread

00:27:05.819 --> 00:27:06.319
 but it's a

00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:06.699
 rock

00:27:06.700 --> 00:27:08.960
 it's so

00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:09.259
 funny

00:27:09.259 --> 00:27:09.900
 let's go

00:27:09.900 --> 00:27:10.100
 to the

00:27:10.100 --> 00:27:10.539
 dentist

00:27:10.539 --> 00:27:12.480
 none of

00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:12.680
 you

00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:13.799
 would be

00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:14.319
 so

00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:15.460
 low down

00:27:15.460 --> 00:27:15.920
 evil

00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:16.299
 to do

00:27:16.299 --> 00:27:16.500
 that

00:27:16.500 --> 00:27:16.960
 would you

00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:19.819
 none of

00:27:19.819 --> 00:27:20.039
 you would

00:27:20.039 --> 00:27:20.400
 be so

00:27:20.400 --> 00:27:20.940
 sinful

00:27:20.940 --> 00:27:22.779
 your

00:27:22.779 --> 00:27:23.100
 daughter

00:27:23.100 --> 00:27:23.580
 asks you

00:27:23.580 --> 00:27:23.880
 for a

00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:24.100
 packed

00:27:24.100 --> 00:27:24.460
 lunch

00:27:24.460 --> 00:27:24.940
 tomorrow

00:27:24.940 --> 00:27:25.980
 he

00:27:25.980 --> 00:27:26.180
 says

00:27:26.180 --> 00:27:26.420
 what

00:27:26.420 --> 00:27:26.539
 would

00:27:26.539 --> 00:27:26.640
 she

00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:26.860
 like

00:27:26.860 --> 00:27:27.000
 in

00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:27.080
 the

00:27:27.080 --> 00:27:27.240
 packed

00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:27.519
 lunch

00:27:27.519 --> 00:27:28.799
 and she

00:27:28.799 --> 00:27:28.900
 says

00:27:28.900 --> 00:27:29.120
 I'd

00:27:29.120 --> 00:27:29.279
 love

00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:29.759
 a

00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:29.900
 piece

00:27:29.900 --> 00:27:30.080
 of

00:27:30.080 --> 00:27:30.400
 fish

00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:31.180
 and he

00:27:31.180 --> 00:27:31.319
 said

00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:31.580
 it would

00:27:31.580 --> 00:27:31.660
 be

00:27:31.660 --> 00:27:32.059
 really

00:27:32.059 --> 00:27:32.319
 funny

00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:32.539
 if I

00:27:32.539 --> 00:27:32.740
 put

00:27:32.740 --> 00:27:32.940
 a

00:27:32.940 --> 00:27:33.340
 serpent

00:27:33.340 --> 00:27:33.680
 in

00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:33.960
 there

00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:35.100
 and she

00:27:35.100 --> 00:27:35.440
 comes

00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:35.640
 into

00:27:35.640 --> 00:27:36.019
 school

00:27:36.019 --> 00:27:36.299
 and she

00:27:36.299 --> 00:27:36.640
 opens

00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:36.820
 up

00:27:36.820 --> 00:27:36.980
 the

00:27:36.980 --> 00:27:37.460
 picnic

00:27:37.460 --> 00:27:37.900
 box

00:27:37.900 --> 00:27:38.259
 or the

00:27:38.259 --> 00:27:38.860
 lunch

00:27:38.860 --> 00:27:39.160
 box

00:27:39.160 --> 00:27:39.500
 and out

00:27:39.500 --> 00:27:39.840
 comes

00:27:39.840 --> 00:27:40.580
 the

00:27:40.580 --> 00:27:41.160
 serpent

00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:42.340
 RSPTA

00:27:42.340 --> 00:27:42.560
 and the

00:27:42.560 --> 00:27:42.820
 police

00:27:42.820 --> 00:27:42.980
 are

00:27:42.980 --> 00:27:43.320
 called

00:27:43.320 --> 00:27:44.440
 and you

00:27:44.440 --> 00:27:45.120
 laugh

00:27:45.120 --> 00:27:47.280
 you know

00:27:47.280 --> 00:27:47.759
 how to be

00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:48.100
 consistent

00:27:48.100 --> 00:27:48.360
 with your

00:27:48.360 --> 00:27:48.620
 children

00:27:48.620 --> 00:27:49.020
 you know

00:27:49.020 --> 00:27:49.560
 how much

00:27:49.560 --> 00:27:50.780
 more

00:27:50.780 --> 00:27:53.580
 Jesus is

00:27:53.580 --> 00:27:53.940
 saying

00:27:53.940 --> 00:27:54.960
 he will

00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:55.340
 give good

00:27:55.340 --> 00:27:55.660
 things to

00:27:55.660 --> 00:27:55.960
 those who

00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:56.340
 ask

00:27:56.340 --> 00:27:56.960
 you can

00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:57.480
 trust him

00:27:57.480 --> 00:27:59.100
 God

00:27:59.100 --> 00:27:59.259
 the

00:27:59.259 --> 00:27:59.480
 father

00:27:59.480 --> 00:27:59.960
 will not

00:27:59.960 --> 00:28:00.200
 double

00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:00.540
 cross

00:28:00.540 --> 00:28:00.800
 you

00:28:00.800 --> 00:28:02.300
 God

00:28:02.300 --> 00:28:02.540
 is not

00:28:02.540 --> 00:28:02.800
 looking

00:28:02.800 --> 00:28:02.980
 for

00:28:02.980 --> 00:28:03.600
 loopholes

00:28:03.600 --> 00:28:04.820
 to get

00:28:04.820 --> 00:28:05.040
 out of

00:28:05.040 --> 00:28:05.320
 answering

00:28:05.320 --> 00:28:05.560
 your

00:28:05.560 --> 00:28:06.120
 prayers

00:28:06.119 --> 00:28:07.739
 he says

00:28:07.739 --> 00:28:08.079
 get rid

00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:08.219
 of

00:28:08.219 --> 00:28:08.839
 superstition

00:28:08.839 --> 00:28:09.259
 get rid

00:28:09.259 --> 00:28:09.359
 of

00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:09.559
 this

00:28:09.559 --> 00:28:10.519
 nonsense

00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:10.879
 I think

00:28:10.879 --> 00:28:11.159
 Christians

00:28:11.159 --> 00:28:11.379
 can be

00:28:11.379 --> 00:28:11.699
 really

00:28:11.699 --> 00:28:12.299
 superstition

00:28:12.299 --> 00:28:12.579
 we think

00:28:12.579 --> 00:28:12.879
 if I

00:28:12.879 --> 00:28:13.199
 come to

00:28:13.199 --> 00:28:13.359
 God

00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:13.479
 in

00:28:13.479 --> 00:28:13.679
 prayer

00:28:13.679 --> 00:28:14.019
 like this

00:28:14.019 --> 00:28:14.199
 I'm

00:28:14.199 --> 00:28:14.459
 afraid

00:28:14.459 --> 00:28:14.659
 he's

00:28:14.659 --> 00:28:14.859
 going to

00:28:14.859 --> 00:28:15.219
 call me

00:28:15.219 --> 00:28:15.399
 to be

00:28:15.399 --> 00:28:15.539
 a

00:28:15.539 --> 00:28:15.819
 missionary

00:28:15.819 --> 00:28:16.159
 or something

00:28:16.159 --> 00:28:16.599
 like that

00:28:16.599 --> 00:28:18.319
 you

00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:18.339
 you

00:28:18.339 --> 00:28:18.480
 can

00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:18.759
 trust

00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:18.339
 you

00:28:18.339 --> 00:28:18.480
 can

00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:18.759
 trust

00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:18.939
 your

00:28:18.939 --> 00:28:19.199
 father

00:28:19.199 --> 00:28:19.359
 in

00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:19.599
 heaven

00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:21.579
 it

00:28:21.579 --> 00:28:21.819
 doesn't

00:28:21.819 --> 00:28:21.959
 mean

00:28:21.959 --> 00:28:22.119
 you

00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:22.419
 won't

00:28:22.419 --> 00:28:22.659
 have

00:28:22.659 --> 00:28:23.179
 questions

00:28:23.179 --> 00:28:23.399
 about

00:28:23.399 --> 00:28:23.579
 what

00:28:23.579 --> 00:28:23.719
 he

00:28:23.719 --> 00:28:24.039
 gives

00:28:24.039 --> 00:28:24.299
 you

00:28:24.299 --> 00:28:25.179
 but

00:28:25.179 --> 00:28:25.299
 the

00:28:25.299 --> 00:28:25.500
 point

00:28:25.500 --> 00:28:25.659
 is

00:28:25.659 --> 00:28:25.759
 you

00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:25.879
 can

00:28:25.879 --> 00:28:26.219
 depend

00:28:26.219 --> 00:28:26.379
 on

00:28:26.379 --> 00:28:26.500
 a

00:28:26.500 --> 00:28:26.759
 faithful

00:28:26.759 --> 00:28:27.279
 father

00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:28.299
 and

00:28:28.299 --> 00:28:28.439
 then

00:28:28.439 --> 00:28:28.819
 fourthly

00:28:28.819 --> 00:28:29.039
 and really

00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:29.419
 briefly

00:28:29.419 --> 00:28:29.879
 he gives

00:28:29.879 --> 00:28:30.159
 you the

00:28:30.159 --> 00:28:30.579
 rule of

00:28:30.579 --> 00:28:30.899
 judging

00:28:30.899 --> 00:28:31.779
 verse 12

00:28:31.779 --> 00:28:34.359
 verse 12

00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:36.299
 yes he doesn't

00:28:36.299 --> 00:28:36.959
 help us with the

00:28:36.959 --> 00:28:37.639
 headings being where

00:28:37.639 --> 00:28:38.119
 they are

00:28:38.119 --> 00:28:39.359
 he says

00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:39.719
 so whatever

00:28:39.719 --> 00:28:40.299
 you wish

00:28:40.299 --> 00:28:40.879
 that others

00:28:40.879 --> 00:28:41.359
 would do to

00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:41.639
 you

00:28:41.639 --> 00:28:42.559
 do also to

00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:42.740
!

00:28:42.740 --> 00:28:43.380
 this is the

00:28:43.380 --> 00:28:43.680
 law

00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:44.279
 the

00:28:44.279 --> 00:28:44.759
 prophets

00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:47.660
 that's the

00:28:47.660 --> 00:28:48.000
 rule in

00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:48.279
 judging

00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:48.960
 you notice

00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:50.180
 how it

00:28:50.180 --> 00:28:50.779
 ties it in

00:28:50.779 --> 00:28:51.039
 with what

00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:51.299
 has gone

00:28:51.299 --> 00:28:51.660
 before

00:28:51.660 --> 00:28:51.900
 doesn't

00:28:51.900 --> 00:28:52.039
 it

00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:52.680
 it says

00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:54.140
 it should

00:28:54.140 --> 00:28:54.460
 say

00:28:54.460 --> 00:28:54.759
 now

00:28:54.759 --> 00:28:55.359
 therefore

00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:58.019
 so

00:28:58.019 --> 00:28:58.779
 therefore

00:28:58.779 --> 00:29:01.579
 it's in

00:29:01.579 --> 00:29:02.120
 the negative

00:29:02.120 --> 00:29:03.680
 it's

00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:04.039
 it's

00:29:04.039 --> 00:29:04.559
 it's

00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:04.859
 it's

00:29:04.859 --> 00:29:04.859


00:29:04.859 --> 00:29:05.160
 not in

00:29:05.160 --> 00:29:05.279
 the

00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:05.579
 negative

00:29:05.579 --> 00:29:05.839
 it's

00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:05.980
 not

00:29:05.980 --> 00:29:06.299
 whatever

00:29:06.299 --> 00:29:06.480
 you

00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:06.680
 don't

00:29:06.680 --> 00:29:06.859
 want

00:29:06.859 --> 00:29:07.079
 people

00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:07.259
 to

00:29:07.259 --> 00:29:07.359
 do

00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:07.519
 to

00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:07.700
 you

00:29:07.700 --> 00:29:08.079
 don't

00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:08.220
 do

00:29:08.220 --> 00:29:08.359
 to

00:29:08.359 --> 00:29:08.640
 them

00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:09.259
 it's

00:29:09.259 --> 00:29:09.599
 positive

00:29:09.599 --> 00:29:10.000
 all

00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:10.299
 things

00:29:10.299 --> 00:29:10.519
 that you

00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:10.620
 would

00:29:10.620 --> 00:29:10.799
 like

00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:11.079
 others

00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:11.220
 to

00:29:11.220 --> 00:29:11.299
 do

00:29:11.299 --> 00:29:11.460
 to

00:29:11.460 --> 00:29:11.660
 you

00:29:11.660 --> 00:29:11.680
!

00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:12.620
 you

00:29:12.620 --> 00:29:12.960
 also

00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:13.200
 want

00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:13.279
 to

00:29:13.279 --> 00:29:13.380
 do

00:29:13.380 --> 00:29:13.500
 the

00:29:13.500 --> 00:29:13.680
 same

00:29:13.680 --> 00:29:13.840
 for

00:29:13.840 --> 00:29:14.120
 them

00:29:14.120 --> 00:29:15.080
 it

00:29:15.080 --> 00:29:15.279
 leaves

00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:15.460
 all

00:29:15.460 --> 00:29:15.700
 sorts

00:29:15.700 --> 00:29:15.779
 of

00:29:15.779 --> 00:29:15.900
 room

00:29:15.900 --> 00:29:16.039
 for

00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:16.560
 creativity

00:29:16.560 --> 00:29:18.519
 and

00:29:18.519 --> 00:29:18.680
 there's

00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:19.120
 positivity

00:29:19.120 --> 00:29:19.720
 and energy

00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:20.039
 in verse

00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:20.440
 12

00:29:20.440 --> 00:29:21.980
 but the

00:29:21.980 --> 00:29:22.240
 thing I

00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:22.460
 want you

00:29:22.460 --> 00:29:22.560

00:29:22.560 --> 00:29:22.940
 notice

00:29:22.940 --> 00:29:24.180
 is the

00:29:24.180 --> 00:29:24.539
 place

00:29:24.539 --> 00:29:24.880
 where it

00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:25.200
 occurs

00:29:25.200 --> 00:29:25.560
 he's

00:29:25.560 --> 00:29:25.920
 trying to

00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:26.080
 say

00:29:26.080 --> 00:29:26.200
 he's

00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:26.560
 trust

00:29:26.560 --> 00:29:26.700
 your

 heavenly

00:29:26.900 --> 00:29:27.299
 father

00:29:27.299 --> 00:29:29.180

 saying

00:29:31.000 --> 00:29:32.060
 more

00:29:32.060 --> 00:29:32.400
 will he

00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:32.560
 give

00:29:32.560 --> 00:29:32.759
 good

 goodness

 his

00:29:37.560 --> 00:29:37.880
 people

00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:38.620
 then show

00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:42.360
 the

00:29:42.360 --> 00:29:42.660
 goodness

00:29:42.660 --> 00:29:42.860
 of

 the

00:29:42.980 --> 00:29:43.279
 father

00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:43.440

00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:43.519
 the

00:29:43.519 --> 00:29:43.660
 way

00:29:43.660 --> 00:29:43.799
 that

00:29:43.799 --> 00:29:43.940
 you

00:29:43.940 --> 00:29:44.400
 deal

00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:44.560
 with

00:29:44.560 --> 00:29:44.900
 others

00:29:44.900 --> 00:29:46.460
 as part

00:29:46.460 --> 00:29:46.580
 of the

00:29:46.580 --> 00:29:46.840
 connection

00:29:46.840 --> 00:29:46.980
 it

00:29:46.980 --> 00:29:47.220
 connects

00:29:47.220 --> 00:29:47.340
 to

00:29:47.340 --> 00:29:47.539
 verses

00:29:47.539 --> 00:29:47.740
 1

00:29:47.740 --> 00:29:47.840
 to

00:29:47.840 --> 00:29:48.100
 5

00:29:48.100 --> 00:29:48.279
 and

00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:48.820
 you

00:29:48.820 --> 00:29:49.060
 wonder

00:29:49.060 --> 00:29:49.279
 how

00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:49.480
 am I

00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:49.600
 to

00:29:49.600 --> 00:29:49.920
 judge

00:29:49.920 --> 00:29:50.360
 well here's

00:29:50.360 --> 00:29:50.480
 the

00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:50.759
 rule

00:29:50.759 --> 00:29:51.640
 you can't

00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:52.039
 form a

00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:52.460
 precise

00:29:52.460 --> 00:29:52.799
 rule

00:29:52.799 --> 00:29:53.380
 for every

00:29:53.380 --> 00:29:53.980
 situation

00:29:53.980 --> 00:29:54.519
 but here's

00:29:54.519 --> 00:29:54.940
 a general

00:29:54.940 --> 00:29:55.320
 rule

00:29:55.320 --> 00:29:57.279
 to let

00:29:57.279 --> 00:29:57.539
 you know

00:29:57.539 --> 00:29:57.940
 how you're

00:29:57.940 --> 00:29:58.220
 going to

00:29:58.220 --> 00:29:58.539
 judge

00:29:58.539 --> 00:29:59.200
 if you

00:29:59.200 --> 00:29:59.440
 are going

00:29:59.440 --> 00:29:59.640
 to be

00:29:59.640 --> 00:29:59.940
 judging

00:29:59.940 --> 00:30:00.259
 others

00:30:00.259 --> 00:30:00.620
 in some

00:30:00.620 --> 00:30:01.420
 way

00:30:01.420 --> 00:30:02.380
 which you

00:30:02.380 --> 00:30:02.720
 are going

00:30:02.720 --> 00:30:02.880
 to be

00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:03.240
 because we

00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:03.700
 cannot live

00:30:03.700 --> 00:30:04.279
 without judging

00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:04.680
 others

00:30:04.680 --> 00:30:05.960
 you better

00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:06.380
 make sure

00:30:06.380 --> 00:30:06.640
 that you

00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:12.460
 how would

00:30:12.460 --> 00:30:12.759
 I want

00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:13.180
 someone else

00:30:13.180 --> 00:30:13.519
 to judge

00:30:13.519 --> 00:30:13.740
 me

00:30:13.740 --> 00:30:14.100
 but I'd

00:30:14.100 --> 00:30:14.240
 want

00:30:14.240 --> 00:30:14.640
 someone else

00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:14.940
 to judge

00:30:14.940 --> 00:30:15.080
 me

00:30:15.080 --> 00:30:15.560
 considerably

00:30:15.560 --> 00:30:17.500
 and I'd

00:30:17.500 --> 00:30:17.720
 want them

00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:18.080
 to consider

00:30:18.080 --> 00:30:18.519
 all the

00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:19.140
 circumstances

00:30:19.140 --> 00:30:19.600
 that I'm

00:30:19.600 --> 00:30:19.860
 under

00:30:19.860 --> 00:30:20.259
 in a

00:30:20.259 --> 00:30:20.440
 certain

00:30:20.440 --> 00:30:21.019
 situation

00:30:21.019 --> 00:30:22.539
 I'd

00:30:22.539 --> 00:30:22.640
 want

00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:22.740
 them

00:30:22.740 --> 00:30:23.000
 to judge

00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:23.160
 me

00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:23.519
 kindly

00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:25.140
 I'd

00:30:25.140 --> 00:30:25.440
 prefer

00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:25.759
 that they

00:30:25.759 --> 00:30:26.019
 judge

00:30:26.019 --> 00:30:26.200
 me

00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:26.660
 directly

00:30:26.660 --> 00:30:27.259
 and they

00:30:27.259 --> 00:30:27.440
 didn't

00:30:27.440 --> 00:30:27.680
 go to

00:30:27.680 --> 00:30:28.000
 others

00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:28.200
 and

00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:28.420
 gossip

00:30:28.420 --> 00:30:28.779
 about

00:30:28.779 --> 00:30:29.100
 me

00:30:29.100 --> 00:30:30.000
 or to

00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:30.200
 someone

00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:30.440
 else

00:30:30.440 --> 00:30:30.720
 but they

00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:31.000
 do it

00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:31.500
 directly

00:30:31.500 --> 00:30:32.060
 and when

00:30:32.060 --> 00:30:32.259
 they

00:30:32.259 --> 00:30:32.560
 state

00:30:32.560 --> 00:30:32.779
 their

00:30:32.779 --> 00:30:33.180
 case

00:30:33.180 --> 00:30:33.560
 I'd

00:30:33.560 --> 00:30:33.700
 want

00:30:33.700 --> 00:30:33.820
 them

00:30:33.820 --> 00:30:33.960
 to

00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:34.160
 judge

00:30:34.160 --> 00:30:34.299
 me

00:30:34.299 --> 00:30:34.900
 temperately

00:30:34.900 --> 00:30:35.720
 that

00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:35.820
 they

00:30:35.820 --> 00:30:36.019
 don't

00:30:36.019 --> 00:30:36.240
 blow

00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:36.460
 my

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:42.440
 I'd

00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:42.560
 want

00:30:42.560 --> 00:30:42.680
 them

00:30:42.680 --> 00:30:42.820
 to

00:30:42.820 --> 00:30:43.000
 judge

00:30:43.000 --> 00:30:43.160
 me

00:30:43.160 --> 00:30:43.580
 privately

00:30:43.580 --> 00:30:45.279
 and if

00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:45.380
 they

00:30:45.380 --> 00:30:45.500
 are

00:30:45.500 --> 00:30:45.759
 something

00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:46.180
 against

00:30:46.180 --> 00:30:46.420
 me

00:30:46.420 --> 00:30:46.620
 I

00:30:46.620 --> 00:30:47.120
 prefer

00:30:47.120 --> 00:30:47.340
 that

00:30:47.340 --> 00:30:47.460
 if

00:30:47.460 --> 00:30:47.580
 I

00:30:47.580 --> 00:30:47.799
 need

00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:48.259
 correction

00:30:48.259 --> 00:30:48.539
 that

00:30:48.539 --> 00:30:48.680
 they

00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:48.860
 would

00:30:48.860 --> 00:30:49.039
 not

00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:49.320
 do it

00:30:49.320 --> 00:30:49.620
 in front

00:30:49.620 --> 00:30:49.799
 of a

00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:49.920
 group

00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:50.060
 of

00:30:50.060 --> 00:30:50.299
 people

00:30:50.299 --> 00:30:51.519
 and they

00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:51.720
 wouldn't

00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:51.980
 bring it

00:30:51.980 --> 00:30:52.259
 up all

00:30:52.259 --> 00:30:52.460
 of a

00:30:52.460 --> 00:30:52.720
 sudden

00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:53.039
 but they

00:30:53.039 --> 00:30:53.360
 have the

00:30:53.360 --> 00:30:53.660
 courage

00:30:53.660 --> 00:30:54.120
 to judge

00:30:54.120 --> 00:30:54.299
 me

00:30:54.299 --> 00:30:54.740
 privately

00:30:54.740 --> 00:30:56.539
 isn't that

00:30:56.539 --> 00:30:56.740
 the way

00:30:56.740 --> 00:30:57.160
 you want

00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:57.340
 to be

00:30:57.340 --> 00:30:57.680
 judged

00:30:57.680 --> 00:30:58.759
 well if

00:30:58.759 --> 00:30:58.960
 that's

00:30:58.960 --> 00:30:59.100
 the way

00:30:59.100 --> 00:30:59.380
 you want

00:30:59.380 --> 00:30:59.560
 to be

00:30:59.560 --> 00:30:59.779
 judged

00:30:59.779 --> 00:31:00.259
 verse 12

00:31:00.259 --> 00:31:00.820
 is saying

00:31:00.820 --> 00:31:01.360
 that's

00:31:01.360 --> 00:31:01.519
 how you

00:31:01.519 --> 00:31:01.700
 judge

00:31:01.700 --> 00:31:02.019
 others

00:31:02.019 --> 00:31:04.440
 and notice

00:31:04.440 --> 00:31:04.920
 the rationale

00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:05.440
 of this

00:31:05.440 --> 00:31:05.799
 we should

00:31:05.799 --> 00:31:06.220
 act in

00:31:06.220 --> 00:31:06.539
 this way

00:31:06.539 --> 00:31:06.899
 because

00:31:06.899 --> 00:31:07.559
 this is

00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:07.919
 what the

00:31:07.919 --> 00:31:08.200
 law and

00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:08.299
 the

00:31:08.299 --> 00:31:08.579
 prophets

00:31:08.579 --> 00:31:08.819
 are all

00:31:08.819 --> 00:31:09.059
 about

00:31:09.059 --> 00:31:10.399
 that is

00:31:10.399 --> 00:31:10.599
 what the

00:31:10.599 --> 00:31:10.759
 old

00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:11.059
 testament

00:31:11.059 --> 00:31:11.619
 requires

00:31:11.619 --> 00:31:14.279
 we don't

00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:14.579
 act

00:31:14.579 --> 00:31:15.639
 in this

00:31:15.639 --> 00:31:15.859
 way

00:31:15.859 --> 00:31:16.139
 because

00:31:16.139 --> 00:31:16.259
 it's

00:31:16.259 --> 00:31:16.680
 pragmatic

00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:17.359
 because

00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:17.579
 it's

00:31:17.579 --> 00:31:17.839
 for our

00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:18.159
 profit

00:31:18.159 --> 00:31:19.519
 we don't

00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:19.919
 act like

00:31:19.919 --> 00:31:20.079
 this

00:31:20.079 --> 00:31:20.319
 because

00:31:20.319 --> 00:31:20.519
 it's

00:31:20.519 --> 00:31:20.779
 for our

00:31:20.779 --> 00:31:21.440
 advantage

00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:22.299
 because

00:31:22.299 --> 00:31:22.559
 other

00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:22.839
 folks

00:31:22.839 --> 00:31:23.000
 will

00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:23.220
 like

00:31:23.220 --> 00:31:23.379
 us

00:31:23.379 --> 00:31:23.680
 better

00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:25.240
 no

00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:25.519
 that is

00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:25.700
 not

00:31:25.700 --> 00:31:25.859
 the

00:31:25.859 --> 00:31:26.159
 basic

00:31:26.159 --> 00:31:26.599
 reason

00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:27.599
 Jesus

00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:28.019
 doesn't

00:31:28.019 --> 00:31:28.319
 say

00:31:28.319 --> 00:31:28.700
 you'll

00:31:28.700 --> 00:31:28.839
 feel

00:31:28.839 --> 00:31:29.099
 better

00:31:29.099 --> 00:31:29.279
 if

00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:29.359
 you

00:31:29.359 --> 00:31:29.480
 do

00:31:29.480 --> 00:31:29.859
 this

00:31:29.859 --> 00:31:31.039
 he

00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:31.240
 doesn't

00:31:31.240 --> 00:31:31.399
 say

00:31:31.399 --> 00:31:31.639
 you do

00:31:31.639 --> 00:31:31.720
 it

00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:31.960
 for a

00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:32.220
 social

00:31:32.220 --> 00:31:32.579
 reason

00:31:32.579 --> 00:31:32.819
 so

00:31:32.819 --> 00:31:32.980
 that

00:31:32.980 --> 00:31:33.460
 enhance

00:31:33.460 --> 00:31:33.679
 your

00:31:33.679 --> 00:31:34.240
 reputation

00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:39.259
 there are

00:31:39.259 --> 00:31:39.559
 times

00:31:39.559 --> 00:31:40.419
 where our

00:31:40.419 --> 00:31:41.579
 morals

00:31:41.579 --> 00:31:41.980
 and our

00:31:41.980 --> 00:31:42.379
 ethics

00:31:42.379 --> 00:31:43.399
 only hang

00:31:43.399 --> 00:31:43.779
 together

00:31:43.779 --> 00:31:44.220
 because of

00:31:44.220 --> 00:31:44.359
 our

00:31:44.359 --> 00:31:44.720
 concern

00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:44.960
 of what

00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:45.099
 other

00:31:45.099 --> 00:31:45.299
 people

00:31:45.299 --> 00:31:45.439
 would

00:31:45.439 --> 00:31:45.619
 think

00:31:45.619 --> 00:31:45.960
 of us

00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:47.639
 we

00:31:47.639 --> 00:31:47.919
 don't

00:31:47.919 --> 00:31:48.339
 do

00:31:48.339 --> 00:31:48.679
 certain

00:31:48.679 --> 00:31:49.119
 things

00:31:49.119 --> 00:31:49.519
 because

00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:49.639
 it

00:31:49.639 --> 00:31:49.759
 would

00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:49.960
 ruin

00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:50.159
 our

00:31:50.159 --> 00:31:50.679
 reputation

00:31:50.679 --> 00:31:52.259
 or

00:31:52.259 --> 00:31:52.399
 we

00:31:52.399 --> 00:31:52.639
 wouldn't

00:31:52.639 --> 00:31:52.960
 receive

00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:53.339
 favour

00:31:53.339 --> 00:31:53.579
 or

00:31:53.579 --> 00:31:54.480
 esteem

00:31:54.480 --> 00:31:55.480
 and

00:31:55.480 --> 00:31:55.740
 pleasing

00:31:55.740 --> 00:31:56.339
 God

00:31:56.339 --> 00:31:56.779
 or

00:31:56.779 --> 00:31:57.339
 obeying

00:31:57.339 --> 00:31:57.759
 God's

00:31:57.759 --> 00:31:58.220
 words

00:31:58.220 --> 00:32:00.559
 hardly

00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:00.919
 enters

00:32:00.919 --> 00:32:01.099
 into

00:32:01.099 --> 00:32:01.279
 our

00:32:01.279 --> 00:32:01.839
 consideration

00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:05.039
 why is

00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:05.299
 it that

00:32:05.299 --> 00:32:05.519
 I

00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:05.980
 seek

00:32:05.980 --> 00:32:06.139
 to

00:32:06.139 --> 00:32:06.279
 obey

00:32:06.279 --> 00:32:06.439
 the

00:32:06.439 --> 00:32:06.659
 first

00:32:06.659 --> 00:32:06.980
 part

00:32:06.980 --> 00:32:07.359
 of

00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:07.699
 verse

00:32:07.699 --> 00:32:08.119
 12

00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:09.379
 if

00:32:09.379 --> 00:32:09.500
 I

00:32:09.500 --> 00:32:09.740
 do

00:32:09.740 --> 00:32:11.579
 if

00:32:11.579 --> 00:32:11.759
 it's

00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:11.959
 only

00:32:11.959 --> 00:32:12.159
 for

00:32:12.159 --> 00:32:12.480
 social

00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:13.039
 esteem

00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:13.199
 and

00:32:13.199 --> 00:32:13.299
 if

00:32:13.299 --> 00:32:13.419
 it's

00:32:13.419 --> 00:32:13.559
 only

00:32:13.559 --> 00:32:13.699
 that

00:32:13.699 --> 00:32:13.899
 I'll

00:32:13.899 --> 00:32:14.199
 feel

00:32:14.199 --> 00:32:14.659
 better

00:32:14.659 --> 00:32:16.639
 and

00:32:16.639 --> 00:32:16.779
 it's

00:32:16.779 --> 00:32:17.039
 not

00:32:17.039 --> 00:32:18.299
 that

00:32:18.299 --> 00:32:18.500
 that

00:32:18.500 --> 00:32:18.619
 the

00:32:18.619 --> 00:32:18.799
 Bible

00:32:18.799 --> 00:32:19.500
 requires

00:32:19.500 --> 00:32:20.339
 what

00:32:20.339 --> 00:32:21.279
 he

00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:21.679
 requires

00:32:21.679 --> 00:32:21.819
 is

00:32:21.819 --> 00:32:21.939
 that

00:32:21.939 --> 00:32:22.059
 it

00:32:22.059 --> 00:32:22.379
 pleases

00:32:22.379 --> 00:32:22.839
 God

00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:25.220
 and

00:32:25.220 --> 00:32:25.740
 why

00:32:25.740 --> 00:32:26.099
 I

00:32:26.099 --> 00:32:26.419
 do

00:32:26.419 --> 00:32:26.879
 something

00:32:26.879 --> 00:32:27.459
 is

00:32:27.459 --> 00:32:27.599
 a

00:32:27.599 --> 00:32:27.939
 great

00:32:27.939 --> 00:32:28.519
 index

00:32:28.519 --> 00:32:28.740
 of

00:32:28.740 --> 00:32:29.039
 whose

00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:29.339
 I

00:32:29.339 --> 00:32:29.679
 am

00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:31.920
 and

00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:32.180
 Jesus

00:32:32.180 --> 00:32:32.480
 saying

00:32:32.480 --> 00:32:32.640
 to

00:32:32.640 --> 00:32:32.759
 you

00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:32.840
 and

00:32:32.840 --> 00:32:32.980
 I

00:32:32.980 --> 00:32:34.100
 that
