00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.480
 You are listening to a message from Southwood Presbyterian Church in Huntsville, Alabama.

00:00:06.980 --> 00:00:09.540
 Our passion is to experience and express grace.

00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:10.620
 Join us.

00:00:12.700 --> 00:00:16.000
 Open your Bibles, if you will, to Luke 4.

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:33.400
 I'm going to read verses 1 through 14 in this extended study that we are in the middle of, of the Gospel of Luke.

00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:40.539
 You can follow with me as I read from God's Word of truth.

00:00:40.539 --> 00:00:53.259
 And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness for 40 days, being tempted by the devil.

00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:56.359
 And he ate nothing during those days.

00:00:57.039 --> 00:00:59.280
 And when they were ended, he was hungry.

00:01:00.179 --> 00:01:01.259
 And the devil said to him,

00:01:01.659 --> 00:01:07.879
 If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.

00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.659
 And Jesus answered him,

00:01:11.019 --> 00:01:14.839
 It is written, man shall not live by bread alone.

00:01:16.039 --> 00:01:21.000
 And the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:22.739
 And said to him,

00:01:23.039 --> 00:01:27.719
 To you, I will give all this authority and their glory.

00:01:28.219 --> 00:01:32.000
 For it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will.

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:37.980
 If you, then, will worship me, it will all be yours.

00:01:39.700 --> 00:01:40.960
 Jesus answered him,

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:42.280
 It is written,

00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:48.359
 You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.

00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:54.000
 And he took him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him,

00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:58.980
 If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here.

00:01:59.099 --> 00:01:59.819
 For it is written,

00:02:01.099 --> 00:02:04.700
 He will command his angels concerning you to guard you,

00:02:05.099 --> 00:02:11.060
 and on their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.

00:02:12.580 --> 00:02:14.060
 And Jesus answered him,

00:02:14.620 --> 00:02:15.620
 It is said,

00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:18.840
 You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.

00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:22.259
 And when the devil had ended every temptation,

00:02:23.259 --> 00:02:26.560
 he departed from him until an opportune time.

00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:31.780
 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee.

00:02:32.539 --> 00:02:37.819
 And a report about him went out through all the surrounding country.

00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:44.659
 Bow with me, if you will, as we pray that God would give us understanding

00:02:44.659 --> 00:02:47.280
 from this portion of his word.

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:47.840
 Lord,

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.699
 Oh Lord,

00:02:51.640 --> 00:02:57.560
 we are needy beyond our comprehension,

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:01.599
 but we are blessed beyond imagination.

00:03:03.580 --> 00:03:06.920
 We struggle in this world, but yet you've given us everything.

00:03:08.259 --> 00:03:11.520
 You give us your spirit, you give us yourself.

00:03:12.819 --> 00:03:15.879
 You've given us forgiveness, you've given us life.

00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:19.400
 You've taken away our penalty.

00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:23.759
 You've come to dwell within us.

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:27.680
 Oh Lord Jesus, we thank you for the great truths.

00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:29.780
 We thank you for who you've made us to be,

00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:31.439
 and who you are for us.

00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:34.400
 We thank you for the hope that that gives us.

00:03:34.500 --> 00:03:37.759
 And part of that hope, part of the gift you give us,

00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:40.199
 is your word.

00:03:41.539 --> 00:03:48.000
 Your word is not just nice sayings and truths that we can gain from.

00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:49.800
 Your word is life itself.

00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:51.800
 It is your word.

00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:55.080
 It is your word, your love letter to us,

00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.740
 to remind us of who you are,

00:03:59.480 --> 00:04:00.800
 and all that you've done.

00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.780
 So, Lord Jesus,

00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:06.060
 would you pour out your spirit?

00:04:07.540 --> 00:04:08.900
 Would you come

00:04:08.900 --> 00:04:12.640
 and anoint me

00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:15.840
 in a way that

00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.240
 when all is said and done,

00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:22.319
 we will have actually heard

00:04:22.319 --> 00:04:25.019
 not words from a man,

00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:27.120
 but words from you.

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:29.819
 Come Holy Spirit.

00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:33.160
 Would you speak to us

00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:34.620
 and lead us

00:04:34.620 --> 00:04:35.920
 into truth.

00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:37.699
 We pray

00:04:37.699 --> 00:04:40.100
 in the great name of our Savior,

00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:40.800
 our Lord Jesus.

00:04:41.780 --> 00:04:42.079
 Amen.

00:04:44.660 --> 00:04:46.060
 You know, last week,

00:04:46.939 --> 00:04:47.879
 we witnessed,

00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:50.600
 when we looked at the baptism of Jesus,

00:04:51.259 --> 00:04:54.480
 we probably looked at the high point,

00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:56.720
 that glory point,

00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:58.000
 in many ways,

00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.680
 of Jesus' ministry.

00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:03.680
 It was his very first public act.

00:05:04.259 --> 00:05:06.140
 It was the entrance into this,

00:05:06.259 --> 00:05:06.740
 now,

00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:09.780
 three or so years of ministry.

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:11.560
 And it was glorious

00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:13.780
 because we saw in his baptism

00:05:13.780 --> 00:05:14.800
 that

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:17.560
 as he went into baptism

00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:19.560
 and identified himself with us,

00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:20.340
 he came up,

00:05:20.700 --> 00:05:21.939
 heard the Father

00:05:21.939 --> 00:05:24.100
 speak audibly to him

00:05:24.100 --> 00:05:25.339
 with the descent

00:05:25.339 --> 00:05:27.100
 of the Holy Spirit upon him

00:05:27.100 --> 00:05:28.360
 in the form of a dove.

00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:29.899
 And he heard

00:05:29.899 --> 00:05:31.980
 that glorious declaration,

00:05:32.579 --> 00:05:35.360
 you are my beloved son

00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:37.980
 in whom I am well pleased.

00:05:39.980 --> 00:05:40.720
 I mean,

00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:42.740
 it just doesn't get

00:05:42.740 --> 00:05:44.240
 any better than that.

00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:46.780
 But,

00:05:47.019 --> 00:05:48.680
 as that is the high point,

00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:50.639
 it also means

00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.860
 it's probably downhill from there.

00:05:55.720 --> 00:05:56.780
 And immediately,

00:05:57.040 --> 00:05:57.699
 we know that,

00:05:57.759 --> 00:05:57.960
 you know,

00:05:58.019 --> 00:05:58.980
 from our own experience,

00:05:59.060 --> 00:06:00.600
 we go to these great retreats,

00:06:00.699 --> 00:06:01.980
 you'll hear this sermon

00:06:01.980 --> 00:06:04.000
 and you'll be on such a spiritual high

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:05.860
 that you just can't stand it,

00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:07.620
 but then walk out of here

00:06:07.620 --> 00:06:12.199
 and reality of life returns.

00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:15.439
 And that's kind of the way it is.

00:06:15.479 --> 00:06:16.740
 It's the way it was with Jesus

00:06:16.740 --> 00:06:17.639
 because now,

00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:20.120
 from this high point,

00:06:20.939 --> 00:06:23.120
 he goes straight to the wilderness.

00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:27.620
 And from glory,

00:06:28.300 --> 00:06:30.159
 he now enters into

00:06:30.159 --> 00:06:34.539
 a period of very real struggle.

00:06:36.139 --> 00:06:38.459
 And this struggle,

00:06:38.819 --> 00:06:41.099
 this period that he's going to enter

00:06:41.099 --> 00:06:41.879
 into the wilderness,

00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:45.879
 I think is extremely instructive for us.

00:06:46.819 --> 00:06:48.399
 But I will also tell you,

00:06:49.139 --> 00:06:52.120
 it is very intricately connected

00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:54.719
 to what just happened

00:06:54.719 --> 00:06:56.500
 at Jesus' baptism.

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:58.300
 So we can't forget that.

00:06:59.159 --> 00:07:00.899
 Because now that he enters

00:07:00.899 --> 00:07:01.719
 into the wilderness,

00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:04.399
 everything he heard

00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:06.879
 at that baptism,

00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:08.259
 from heaven,

00:07:08.259 --> 00:07:09.599
 from his father,

00:07:09.599 --> 00:07:12.659
 is going to be put to the test.

00:07:14.060 --> 00:07:16.159
 And as it is with Jesus,

00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:19.319
 so it will be for us.

00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:24.439
 So Jesus enters the wilderness.

00:07:24.980 --> 00:07:26.920
 And there are three things,

00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:27.639
 again,

00:07:27.699 --> 00:07:29.319
 that I think we need to draw

00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:30.579
 from this text.

00:07:30.699 --> 00:07:31.599
 And because of time,

00:07:31.719 --> 00:07:33.759
 we're not going to be able to go through

00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:36.159
 and analyze all the temptations individually.

00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:38.699
 But there's something major

00:07:38.699 --> 00:07:40.039
 going on here

00:07:40.039 --> 00:07:42.319
 in this period.

00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:43.879
 And the first thing we need to see

00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:45.259
 is the normalcy

00:07:45.259 --> 00:07:46.659
 of the wilderness.

00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:49.000
 Secondly,

00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:49.879
 we are going to see

00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:50.699
 the challenge

00:07:50.699 --> 00:07:52.620
 of the wilderness.

00:07:52.620 --> 00:07:55.280
 then finally,

00:07:55.420 --> 00:07:56.319
 we're going to see victory

00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:57.120
 in the wilderness.

00:07:58.420 --> 00:08:00.040
 So let's look at the normalcy

00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:01.759
 and the necessity

00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:03.420
 of the wilderness.

00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:04.379
 Two things.

00:08:05.139 --> 00:08:06.660
 Immediately as you read this,

00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:08.420
 I don't know if it struck you

00:08:08.420 --> 00:08:09.340
 as a little odd

00:08:09.340 --> 00:08:10.040
 or different,

00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:11.699
 but if you notice,

00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:14.399
 in verse 1,

00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:15.560
 you know,

00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:16.840
 right after the baptism,

00:08:17.019 --> 00:08:17.180
 you know,

00:08:17.220 --> 00:08:18.759
 we've gone through the genealogy,

00:08:18.899 --> 00:08:20.540
 but this is immediately followed

00:08:20.540 --> 00:08:21.780
 the baptism,

00:08:21.779 --> 00:08:22.719
 the Holy Spirit

00:08:22.719 --> 00:08:24.919
 is descended upon Jesus.

00:08:26.859 --> 00:08:27.359
 And,

00:08:27.479 --> 00:08:28.259
 verse 1,

00:08:28.739 --> 00:08:29.199
 and Jesus,

00:08:29.379 --> 00:08:30.639
 full of the Holy Spirit,

00:08:31.539 --> 00:08:32.980
 returned from the Jordan

00:08:32.980 --> 00:08:34.819
 and was led

00:08:34.819 --> 00:08:36.439
 by the Spirit

00:08:36.439 --> 00:08:38.639
 into the wilderness.

00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:40.740
 In the wilderness.

00:08:41.980 --> 00:08:44.139
 It was not the devil

00:08:44.139 --> 00:08:45.179
 that led Jesus

00:08:45.179 --> 00:08:46.059
 in the wilderness.

00:08:46.740 --> 00:08:47.720
 It wasn't the devil

00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:48.539
 that took Jesus

00:08:48.539 --> 00:08:49.519
 to the wilderness.

00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:52.399
 it was the Holy Spirit.

00:08:54.819 --> 00:08:55.059
 Now,

00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:57.220
 I don't know

00:08:57.220 --> 00:08:58.039
 if that strikes you

00:08:58.039 --> 00:08:58.620
 as odd,

00:08:59.919 --> 00:09:00.460
 but

00:09:00.460 --> 00:09:02.259
 that is an important

00:09:02.259 --> 00:09:03.220
 piece of information.

00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:04.279
 First off,

00:09:04.340 --> 00:09:04.840
 the wilderness,

00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:05.620
 the whole idea

00:09:05.620 --> 00:09:06.240
 of the wilderness,

00:09:06.860 --> 00:09:08.319
 it runs all the way

00:09:08.319 --> 00:09:09.579
 through Scripture.

00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:10.519
 This is one of those

00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:11.379
 paradigms

00:09:11.379 --> 00:09:12.460
 that describes

00:09:12.460 --> 00:09:13.559
 so much

00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:15.519
 of our experience

00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:16.379
 and our relationship

00:09:16.379 --> 00:09:18.039
 with God.

00:09:18.740 --> 00:09:19.279
 And here,

00:09:19.379 --> 00:09:19.960
 when he's talking

00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:20.799
 about a wilderness,

00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:22.179
 he's talking about

00:09:22.179 --> 00:09:22.799
 the area there

00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:23.679
 close to the Jordan,

00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:25.120
 and there,

00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:26.100
 if you've ever been

00:09:26.100 --> 00:09:26.960
 to the Middle East,

00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:29.139
 it is hot,

00:09:29.539 --> 00:09:30.700
 it is dry,

00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:32.399
 it is barren,

00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:33.899
 it is desolate,

00:09:33.899 --> 00:09:38.600
 it is a hard place

00:09:38.600 --> 00:09:41.220
 to say the least.

00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:43.879
 And so,

00:09:43.980 --> 00:09:44.699
 in many ways,

00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:45.480
 the wilderness,

00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:47.559
 what the biblical

00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:48.539
 writers do

00:09:48.539 --> 00:09:49.240
 is they use

00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:49.939
 the wilderness,

00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:50.699
 this picture

00:09:50.699 --> 00:09:51.259
 of wilderness

00:09:51.259 --> 00:09:52.579
 to really describe

00:09:52.579 --> 00:09:54.480
 what life is like

00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:56.199
 for God's people

00:09:56.199 --> 00:09:57.399
 here

00:09:57.399 --> 00:09:58.779
 and now.

00:09:58.779 --> 00:10:00.059
 I mean,

00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:00.620
 our world

00:10:00.620 --> 00:10:01.779
 is not

00:10:01.779 --> 00:10:02.679
 the way

00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:03.620
 it was

00:10:03.620 --> 00:10:04.339
 at the beginning,

00:10:05.139 --> 00:10:06.620
 it's not

00:10:06.620 --> 00:10:07.079
 the way

00:10:07.079 --> 00:10:07.779
 it's going

00:10:07.779 --> 00:10:08.439
 to be

00:10:08.439 --> 00:10:09.819
 in the future,

00:10:10.620 --> 00:10:11.419
 but we have

00:10:11.419 --> 00:10:12.559
 this here

00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:13.000
 and now,

00:10:13.100 --> 00:10:13.779
 this middle,

00:10:15.059 --> 00:10:17.199
 and for us,

00:10:17.740 --> 00:10:19.159
 that's really

00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:19.799
 the wilderness

00:10:19.799 --> 00:10:20.959
 because it's here.

00:10:21.899 --> 00:10:22.179
 You know,

00:10:22.220 --> 00:10:23.159
 I love that song,

00:10:23.379 --> 00:10:24.259
 Satisfied,

00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:25.899
 because it calls us

00:10:25.899 --> 00:10:26.779
 to Christ

00:10:26.779 --> 00:10:27.639
 as the only one

00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.240
 who can satisfy,

00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:31.000
 but it also tells us

00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:31.639
 if you read through

00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:32.199
 the verses

00:10:32.199 --> 00:10:33.179
 of that song,

00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:34.600
 that in this life

00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:35.379
 and in this world,

00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:36.139
 we hunger,

00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:37.659
 we are thirsty,

00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:38.980
 we keep running

00:10:38.980 --> 00:10:39.559
 to things

00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:40.960
 to try to satisfy

00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:41.620
 those things

00:10:41.620 --> 00:10:42.139
 in our heart

00:10:42.139 --> 00:10:43.379
 and we can't find them

00:10:43.379 --> 00:10:44.699
 and we keep coming up

00:10:44.699 --> 00:10:45.179
 empty

00:10:45.179 --> 00:10:46.799
 and so this world

00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:48.779
 is really

00:10:48.779 --> 00:10:50.319
 the wilderness

00:10:50.319 --> 00:10:52.879
 and it's hard,

00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:54.500
 it's a place

00:10:54.500 --> 00:10:55.120
 of struggle

00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:58.100
 and it might be,

00:10:58.980 --> 00:10:59.259
 you know,

00:10:59.320 --> 00:10:59.919
 that hardness

00:10:59.919 --> 00:11:01.340
 might come from

00:11:01.340 --> 00:11:02.060
 just the regular

00:11:02.060 --> 00:11:03.320
 brokenness of life,

00:11:03.779 --> 00:11:04.879
 it might come

00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:05.879
 from your own

00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:07.120
 sinful doings,

00:11:07.139 --> 00:11:07.759
 it might come

00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:08.480
 from pressure

00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:09.480
 from the world

00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:10.759
 simply because we are

00:11:10.759 --> 00:11:11.679
 the people of God,

00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:14.299
 but regardless,

00:11:14.580 --> 00:11:15.440
 it will come,

00:11:16.259 --> 00:11:17.560
 it is hard

00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:19.899
 and it's normal

00:11:19.899 --> 00:11:22.699
 and this

00:11:22.699 --> 00:11:24.159
 strikes

00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:25.679
 at the core

00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:27.559
 of what is

00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:29.139
 often termed

00:11:29.139 --> 00:11:30.039
 the prosperity

00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:30.679
 gospel.

00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:32.419
 Now,

00:11:32.699 --> 00:11:33.479
 the prosperity

00:11:33.479 --> 00:11:34.019
 gospel,

00:11:35.219 --> 00:11:36.859
 we can make fun

00:11:36.859 --> 00:11:37.679
 of those

00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:38.959
 prosperity gospel

00:11:38.959 --> 00:11:39.739
 preachers

00:11:39.739 --> 00:11:40.239
 a lot,

00:11:40.319 --> 00:11:41.099
 you'll see the memes

00:11:41.099 --> 00:11:42.000
 on Facebook

00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:43.519
 with Joel Osteen

00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:44.519
 and some of those

00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:44.979
 others

00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:46.519
 because they're

00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:47.200
 just preaching

00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:48.320
 this happy,

00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:49.700
 clappy gospel

00:11:49.700 --> 00:11:50.440
 and if you're

00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:51.659
 close to God

00:11:51.659 --> 00:11:52.420
 everything's going

00:11:52.420 --> 00:11:52.980
 to be great,

00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:53.340
 you're going

00:11:53.340 --> 00:11:53.920
 to prosper

00:11:53.920 --> 00:11:54.700
 here and now

00:11:54.700 --> 00:11:55.420
 materially,

00:11:55.659 --> 00:11:56.320
 relationally,

00:11:56.700 --> 00:11:57.100
 physically,

00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:00.120
 in every way

00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:03.139
 and we can

00:12:03.139 --> 00:12:04.019
 very easily

00:12:04.019 --> 00:12:05.840
 dismiss that

00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:06.940
 as that's just

00:12:06.940 --> 00:12:08.159
 not good theology,

00:12:08.259 --> 00:12:09.240
 it's not true

00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:11.139
 and so we don't

00:12:11.139 --> 00:12:12.340
 fall prey to it

00:12:12.340 --> 00:12:14.680
 because we're

00:12:14.680 --> 00:12:15.920
 good Presbyterians

00:12:15.920 --> 00:12:19.860
 or do we?

00:12:23.160 --> 00:12:23.680
 See,

00:12:23.920 --> 00:12:26.240
 I live

00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:26.680
 with this

00:12:26.680 --> 00:12:27.160
 assumption

00:12:27.160 --> 00:12:30.160
 that life

00:12:30.160 --> 00:12:30.540
 is supposed

00:12:30.540 --> 00:12:31.080
 to be good

00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:33.860
 and I live

00:12:33.860 --> 00:12:34.280
 with this

00:12:34.280 --> 00:12:34.840
 assumption,

00:12:35.040 --> 00:12:35.660
 it's underlying

00:12:35.660 --> 00:12:36.200
 assumption,

00:12:36.340 --> 00:12:36.780
 I wouldn't

00:12:36.780 --> 00:12:37.700
 verbalize

00:12:37.700 --> 00:12:38.620
 that I really

00:12:38.620 --> 00:12:39.220
 believe this

00:12:39.220 --> 00:12:39.860
 but I know

00:12:39.860 --> 00:12:40.379
 I do

00:12:40.379 --> 00:12:42.200
 because when

00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:43.120
 things go

00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:44.059
 foul,

00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:46.879
 when life

00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:48.240
 gets disrupted

00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:51.320
 or I'm

00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:51.860
 in a place

00:12:51.860 --> 00:12:52.840
 where I hurt,

00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:54.960
 I immediately

00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.720
 think something's

00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:57.360
 wrong

00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:00.779
 and the first

00:13:00.779 --> 00:13:01.460
 place that I

00:13:01.460 --> 00:13:02.879
 go is that

00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:03.980
 I want

00:13:03.980 --> 00:13:04.779
 relief

00:13:04.779 --> 00:13:06.139
 from that,

00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:07.840
 I should

00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:09.360
 get relief,

00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:10.419
 you know,

00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:11.139
 God must,

00:13:12.460 --> 00:13:13.060
 I don't know

00:13:13.060 --> 00:13:13.620
 what God's

00:13:13.620 --> 00:13:13.940
 doing,

00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:15.080
 you know,

00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:15.539
 you make a

00:13:15.539 --> 00:13:15.899
 decision,

00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:16.600
 maybe you

00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:18.360
 change jobs

00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:18.980
 or you move

00:13:18.980 --> 00:13:19.419
 to another

00:13:19.419 --> 00:13:20.620
 town and

00:13:20.620 --> 00:13:21.220
 as soon as

00:13:21.220 --> 00:13:21.560
 you make

00:13:21.560 --> 00:13:22.200
 that decision

00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:23.200
 things start

00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:25.360
 getting mucked

00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:28.000
 up and

00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:28.419
 what's your

00:13:28.419 --> 00:13:29.080
 first thought?

00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:32.000
 I missed

00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:32.659
 God's will,

00:13:33.539 --> 00:13:34.460
 I missed

00:13:34.460 --> 00:13:35.060
 his leading,

00:13:36.340 --> 00:13:36.460
 I,

00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:37.340
 this must

00:13:37.340 --> 00:13:37.980
 not be where

00:13:37.980 --> 00:13:38.600
 God wants

00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:38.920
 me,

00:13:39.420 --> 00:13:40.500
 because if

00:13:40.500 --> 00:13:40.920
 I was

00:13:40.920 --> 00:13:41.399
 where God

00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:41.960
 wants me,

00:13:42.100 --> 00:13:42.720
 then it

00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:42.940
 would have

00:13:42.940 --> 00:13:43.340
 all gone

00:13:43.340 --> 00:13:43.899
 smoothly.

00:13:46.779 --> 00:13:47.340
 Well,

00:13:48.060 --> 00:13:48.860
 maybe,

00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:51.240
 maybe not.

00:13:55.100 --> 00:13:55.740
 You know,

00:13:55.779 --> 00:13:56.180
 in the height

00:13:56.180 --> 00:13:56.759
 of intimacy

00:13:56.759 --> 00:13:57.620
 with Jesus,

00:13:57.820 --> 00:13:58.680
 that Jesus

00:13:58.680 --> 00:13:59.019
 had,

00:13:59.080 --> 00:13:59.480
 in the height

00:13:59.480 --> 00:13:59.960
 of intimacy

00:13:59.960 --> 00:14:00.480
 with his

00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:00.860
 father,

00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:02.460
 the very

00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:02.920
 height,

00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:03.820
 he's led

00:14:03.820 --> 00:14:04.139
 by the

00:14:04.139 --> 00:14:04.759
 Holy Spirit

00:14:04.759 --> 00:14:06.419
 into an

00:14:06.419 --> 00:14:07.259
 extremely

00:14:07.259 --> 00:14:08.360
 difficult

00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:09.819
 place.

00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:13.000
 And it's

00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:13.379
 normal.

00:14:15.740 --> 00:14:16.720
 The Christian

00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:17.220
 life,

00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:18.559
 on this

00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:19.139
 side of

00:14:19.139 --> 00:14:19.679
 glory,

00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:21.360
 is the

00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:21.720
 wilderness.

00:14:23.860 --> 00:14:24.379
 And we

00:14:24.379 --> 00:14:24.939
 should not

00:14:24.939 --> 00:14:26.720
 be surprised.

00:14:27.220 --> 00:14:27.559
 And I

00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:29.080
 think a lot

00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:29.879
 can be said

00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:30.580
 too about

00:14:30.580 --> 00:14:31.340
 how we

00:14:31.340 --> 00:14:31.919
 should be

00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:32.679
 parenting our

00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:33.419
 children and

00:14:33.419 --> 00:14:34.120
 preparing them

00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:34.639
 for this.

00:14:36.580 --> 00:14:37.299
 God's will

00:14:37.299 --> 00:14:37.639
 for them

00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:38.120
 may not

00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:39.220
 be total

00:14:39.220 --> 00:14:40.340
 self-fulfillment.

00:14:41.700 --> 00:14:42.379
 Or that

00:14:42.379 --> 00:14:43.060
 they experience

00:14:43.060 --> 00:14:44.019
 everything this

00:14:44.019 --> 00:14:44.700
 world has to

00:14:44.700 --> 00:14:45.019
 offer.

00:14:45.740 --> 00:14:46.500
 Or that

00:14:46.500 --> 00:14:47.759
 life is just

00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:48.700
 the fullest.

00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:52.100
 And sometimes

00:14:52.100 --> 00:14:52.940
 I think we are

00:14:52.940 --> 00:14:53.679
 communicating,

00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:54.240
 we're preaching

00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:55.159
 to our kids

00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:56.139
 the prosperity

00:14:56.139 --> 00:14:56.620
 gospel.

00:14:56.620 --> 00:14:56.720
 people.

00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:59.440
 And when

00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:00.440
 trouble comes,

00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:01.659
 they're not

00:15:01.659 --> 00:15:02.139
 prepared.

00:15:04.980 --> 00:15:06.039
 This world,

00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:07.580
 on this

00:15:07.580 --> 00:15:07.899
 side of

00:15:07.899 --> 00:15:08.299
 glory,

00:15:09.560 --> 00:15:10.240
 the wilderness,

00:15:11.299 --> 00:15:12.060
 is normal.

00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:13.940
 It's not

00:15:13.940 --> 00:15:15.139
 an aberration.

00:15:16.100 --> 00:15:16.899
 It's normal.

00:15:18.340 --> 00:15:18.539
 You know,

00:15:18.580 --> 00:15:19.200
 even Jesus,

00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:20.700
 you know,

00:15:20.740 --> 00:15:21.220
 the second

00:15:21.220 --> 00:15:21.560
 thing,

00:15:21.700 --> 00:15:22.240
 that's the first

00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:22.700
 thing we need

00:15:22.700 --> 00:15:23.279
 to see about

00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:24.000
 the wilderness

00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:24.379
 here,

00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:25.039
 is that it's

00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:25.419
 normal.

00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:26.159
 But secondly,

00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:27.840
 it's necessary.

00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:31.039
 Hebrews 5,

00:15:31.379 --> 00:15:32.100
 verse 8,

00:15:32.179 --> 00:15:32.620
 there's this

00:15:32.620 --> 00:15:33.320
 really interesting

00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:34.879
 statement about

00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:35.919
 Jesus himself,

00:15:36.019 --> 00:15:37.259
 the perfect man.

00:15:37.940 --> 00:15:38.659
 And it says,

00:15:38.840 --> 00:15:39.559
 although he was

00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:40.240
 a son,

00:15:41.299 --> 00:15:41.879
 he learned

00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:42.639
 obedience

00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:45.080
 through what

00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:46.419
 he suffered.

00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:48.600
 Now,

00:15:48.820 --> 00:15:49.279
 again,

00:15:49.419 --> 00:15:49.899
 that sounds

00:15:49.899 --> 00:15:50.539
 a little odd.

00:15:50.539 --> 00:15:51.139
 Why would

00:15:51.139 --> 00:15:51.699
 somebody who

00:15:51.699 --> 00:15:52.419
 is perfect

00:15:52.419 --> 00:15:53.299
 have to

00:15:53.299 --> 00:15:53.919
 learn

00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:55.860
 obedience?

00:15:56.659 --> 00:15:57.019
 Well,

00:15:58.139 --> 00:15:59.000
 it's necessary

00:15:59.000 --> 00:15:59.679
 for him

00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:00.399
 because

00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:01.319
 obedience

00:16:01.319 --> 00:16:02.939
 is not

00:16:02.939 --> 00:16:03.799
 real

00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:04.639
 obedience

00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:06.099
 until

00:16:06.099 --> 00:16:07.799
 it is put

00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:09.059
 to the test.

00:16:11.419 --> 00:16:12.819
 Real faith,

00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:13.899
 real obedience

00:16:13.899 --> 00:16:15.819
 comes through

00:16:15.819 --> 00:16:17.559
 the test.

00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:17.699
 engineers,

00:16:18.199 --> 00:16:19.959
 and you

00:16:19.959 --> 00:16:20.659
 guys know

00:16:20.659 --> 00:16:21.139
 this,

00:16:21.599 --> 00:16:22.199
 most of

00:16:22.199 --> 00:16:22.559
 the people

00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:22.879
 in this

00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:23.239
 room are

00:16:23.239 --> 00:16:23.679
 engineers.

00:16:26.099 --> 00:16:27.119
 And you

00:16:27.119 --> 00:16:27.799
 know that

00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:28.419
 when you

00:16:28.419 --> 00:16:29.139
 get on

00:16:29.139 --> 00:16:29.839
 your computers,

00:16:30.299 --> 00:16:31.159
 you guys

00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:31.699
 are building

00:16:31.699 --> 00:16:32.519
 some incredible

00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:33.059
 things.

00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:34.179
 I'm just

00:16:34.179 --> 00:16:35.000
 amazed at

00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:35.419
 some of the

00:16:35.419 --> 00:16:36.179
 projects you're

00:16:36.179 --> 00:16:36.839
 involved with.

00:16:37.419 --> 00:16:38.479
 You get on

00:16:38.479 --> 00:16:39.099
 and you build

00:16:39.099 --> 00:16:40.819
 these launch

00:16:40.819 --> 00:16:41.599
 systems,

00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:42.719
 you know,

00:16:42.859 --> 00:16:43.839
 for space

00:16:43.839 --> 00:16:44.659
 travel or

00:16:44.659 --> 00:16:45.339
 this really

00:16:45.339 --> 00:16:46.619
 cool aircraft,

00:16:46.620 --> 00:16:46.899
 aircraft,

00:16:47.340 --> 00:16:48.019
 and on the

00:16:48.019 --> 00:16:48.539
 computer,

00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:48.840
 man,

00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:49.480
 it's looking

00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:50.060
 great,

00:16:50.179 --> 00:16:50.639
 and then you

00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:51.060
 go from

00:16:51.060 --> 00:16:51.279
 that,

00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:51.720
 you build

00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:52.419
 these models

00:16:52.419 --> 00:16:52.960
 and they

00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:53.879
 are cool.

00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:56.060
 You build

00:16:56.060 --> 00:16:56.240
 it,

00:16:56.460 --> 00:16:57.519
 you finally

00:16:57.519 --> 00:16:58.080
 get to the

00:16:58.080 --> 00:16:58.539
 place where

00:16:58.539 --> 00:16:59.060
 you put

00:16:59.060 --> 00:16:59.919
 one together

00:16:59.919 --> 00:17:00.519
 and it's

00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:01.120
 all there

00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:01.720
 and sitting

00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:02.019
 on the

00:17:02.019 --> 00:17:02.320
 runway.

00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:03.759
 This is

00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:04.680
 one mean

00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:05.160
 machine.

00:17:08.299 --> 00:17:09.039
 But you

00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:10.720
 know you're

00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:11.519
 not finished

00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:13.039
 because you

00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:14.039
 have no idea

00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:14.900
 if this

00:17:14.900 --> 00:17:15.839
 design is

00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:16.939
 really going

00:17:16.939 --> 00:17:17.339
 to hold

00:17:17.339 --> 00:17:17.740
 up.

00:17:19.179 --> 00:17:19.539
 And so

00:17:19.539 --> 00:17:19.899
 what you

00:17:19.899 --> 00:17:20.339
 do,

00:17:20.339 --> 00:17:21.379
 you put

00:17:21.379 --> 00:17:22.079
 it through

00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:24.000
 testing that

00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:25.259
 pushes it to

00:17:25.259 --> 00:17:25.959
 the ultimate

00:17:25.959 --> 00:17:27.879
 limits of

00:17:27.879 --> 00:17:28.539
 what its

00:17:28.539 --> 00:17:30.299
 capabilities are

00:17:30.299 --> 00:17:31.759
 because only

00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:33.240
 then do you

00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:34.199
 know it

00:17:34.199 --> 00:17:34.599
 can be

00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:35.099
 trusted.

00:17:37.919 --> 00:17:38.220
 And,

00:17:38.659 --> 00:17:39.559
 you know,

00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:40.059
 the wilderness

00:17:40.059 --> 00:17:42.240
 is our

00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:43.859
 stress test.

00:17:43.859 --> 00:17:46.459
 for a

00:17:46.459 --> 00:17:47.740
 believer to

00:17:47.740 --> 00:17:48.419
 live his

00:17:48.419 --> 00:17:49.539
 life at

00:17:49.539 --> 00:17:51.479
 ease with

00:17:51.479 --> 00:17:52.039
 everything

00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:52.779
 given to

00:17:52.779 --> 00:17:54.179
 him in a

00:17:54.179 --> 00:17:54.659
 life of

00:17:54.659 --> 00:17:55.439
 comfort and

00:17:55.439 --> 00:17:56.199
 so forth,

00:17:56.579 --> 00:17:58.019
 his faithfulness

00:17:58.019 --> 00:17:59.039
 to God in

00:17:59.039 --> 00:17:59.839
 that position

00:17:59.839 --> 00:18:01.199
 is a good

00:18:01.199 --> 00:18:01.759
 thing.

00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:05.759
 but,

00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:08.799
 let's compare

00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:10.059
 it to

00:18:10.059 --> 00:18:11.160
 somebody else

00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:12.460
 who's just

00:18:12.460 --> 00:18:13.119
 gone through

00:18:13.119 --> 00:18:13.779
 a battle

00:18:13.779 --> 00:18:14.379
 of cancer,

00:18:14.879 --> 00:18:15.879
 they've lost

00:18:15.879 --> 00:18:17.000
 a child,

00:18:17.579 --> 00:18:18.059
 maybe they've

00:18:18.059 --> 00:18:18.619
 lost their

00:18:18.619 --> 00:18:19.279
 jobs,

00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:20.059
 maybe they're

00:18:20.059 --> 00:18:21.140
 being persecuted

00:18:21.140 --> 00:18:23.379
 by friends

00:18:23.379 --> 00:18:24.200
 at school

00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:25.019
 because their

00:18:25.019 --> 00:18:26.039
 value system

00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:27.039
 is so contrary

00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:28.160
 to anybody

00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:28.799
 else's,

00:18:29.099 --> 00:18:29.879
 and they go

00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:30.300
 through all

00:18:30.300 --> 00:18:30.940
 this stress

00:18:30.940 --> 00:18:31.500
 and then

00:18:31.500 --> 00:18:32.200
 they still

00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:32.900
 say at

00:18:32.900 --> 00:18:33.240
 the end,

00:18:33.380 --> 00:18:33.880
 God is

00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:34.660
 faithful and

00:18:34.660 --> 00:18:35.160
 good,

00:18:36.900 --> 00:18:38.020
 whose faith

00:18:38.020 --> 00:18:38.820
 are you going

00:18:38.820 --> 00:18:39.700
 to say is

00:18:39.700 --> 00:18:40.000
 the most

00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:40.300
 genuine?

00:18:43.040 --> 00:18:43.740
 You see,

00:18:43.800 --> 00:18:44.220
 the wilderness

00:18:44.220 --> 00:18:45.120
 is necessary

00:18:45.120 --> 00:18:46.060
 for us.

00:18:46.700 --> 00:18:47.240
 It's not

00:18:47.240 --> 00:18:48.140
 necessary for

00:18:48.140 --> 00:18:48.840
 God to

00:18:48.840 --> 00:18:49.840
 figure out

00:18:49.840 --> 00:18:50.980
 if our

00:18:50.980 --> 00:18:51.480
 faith is

00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:51.880
 genuine.

00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:54.200
 He already

00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:54.960
 knows.

00:18:56.760 --> 00:18:57.660
 But it's

00:18:57.660 --> 00:18:58.900
 necessary for

00:18:58.900 --> 00:18:59.600
 us.

00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:02.460
 Because it

00:19:02.460 --> 00:19:03.600
 proves whether

00:19:03.600 --> 00:19:04.180
 faith is

00:19:04.180 --> 00:19:04.860
 there or not.

00:19:05.040 --> 00:19:05.180
 You know,

00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:05.700
 some of you

00:19:05.700 --> 00:19:06.400
 might say

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:07.040
 at some point

00:19:07.040 --> 00:19:07.519
 you get in

00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:08.019
 one of those

00:19:08.019 --> 00:19:09.220
 stressful

00:19:09.220 --> 00:19:09.980
 situations

00:19:09.980 --> 00:19:11.440
 and maybe

00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:11.880
 you don't

00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:12.820
 respond really

00:19:12.820 --> 00:19:13.280
 well.

00:19:14.180 --> 00:19:15.080
 Maybe the

00:19:15.080 --> 00:19:15.620
 words that

00:19:15.620 --> 00:19:16.040
 come out of

00:19:16.040 --> 00:19:16.440
 your mouth

00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:16.860
 are pretty

00:19:16.860 --> 00:19:17.460
 ugly or

00:19:17.460 --> 00:19:17.720
 you just

00:19:17.720 --> 00:19:18.420
 kind of

00:19:18.420 --> 00:19:19.180
 flip out.

00:19:21.140 --> 00:19:21.720
 And you

00:19:21.720 --> 00:19:22.100
 say to

00:19:22.100 --> 00:19:23.759
 those who

00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:24.080
 may have

00:19:24.080 --> 00:19:24.580
 witnessed it,

00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:25.100
 oh, I'm

00:19:25.100 --> 00:19:25.840
 sorry, I

00:19:25.840 --> 00:19:26.400
 just wasn't

00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:26.960
 myself.

00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:27.860
 that, you

00:19:27.860 --> 00:19:28.019
 know.

00:19:30.620 --> 00:19:31.600
 I actually

00:19:31.600 --> 00:19:32.779
 think in

00:19:32.779 --> 00:19:33.759
 those situations

00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:34.519
 we are far

00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:35.400
 more ourselves

00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:37.640
 than we are

00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:38.799
 when everything

00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:39.460
 is under

00:19:39.460 --> 00:19:39.880
 control.

00:19:42.100 --> 00:19:42.880
 When we

00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:43.340
 went to

00:19:43.340 --> 00:19:43.920
 overseas,

00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:45.559
 we were

00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:46.680
 told ahead

00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:47.259
 of time as

00:19:47.259 --> 00:19:47.579
 we were

00:19:47.579 --> 00:19:48.079
 moving our

00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:48.740
 whole family

00:19:48.740 --> 00:19:50.360
 to East

00:19:50.360 --> 00:19:50.880
 Central

00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:51.340
 Europe,

00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:52.720
 we were

00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:53.920
 told this

00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:54.900
 great truth

00:19:54.900 --> 00:19:55.380
 and I

00:19:55.380 --> 00:19:55.759
 found it

00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:56.060
 to be

00:19:56.060 --> 00:19:56.700
 true on

00:19:56.700 --> 00:19:56.900
 every

00:19:56.900 --> 00:19:57.259
 level.

00:19:58.360 --> 00:19:58.940
 Moving to

00:19:58.940 --> 00:19:59.380
 the mission

00:19:59.380 --> 00:20:00.019
 field is

00:20:00.019 --> 00:20:00.680
 like pouring

00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:01.620
 miracle grow

00:20:01.620 --> 00:20:03.000
 on all of

00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:03.480
 your sin.

00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:08.420
 That should

00:20:08.420 --> 00:20:09.000
 encourage you

00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:09.380
 to go to

00:20:09.380 --> 00:20:09.700
 the missions.

00:20:09.780 --> 00:20:10.280
 Go missions.

00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:12.880
 It's

00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:13.480
 great.

00:20:16.800 --> 00:20:17.440
 But what

00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:18.040
 happens when

00:20:18.040 --> 00:20:18.540
 you get into

00:20:18.540 --> 00:20:19.000
 these foreign

00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:19.420
 cultures,

00:20:19.560 --> 00:20:20.019
 you deal with

00:20:20.019 --> 00:20:20.320
 a foreign

00:20:20.320 --> 00:20:20.840
 language,

00:20:21.100 --> 00:20:21.400
 you deal

00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:21.660
 with all

00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:22.200
 this stuff,

00:20:22.460 --> 00:20:22.840
 all of a

00:20:22.840 --> 00:20:23.100
 sudden all

00:20:23.100 --> 00:20:23.840
 those props

00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:24.220
 that you

00:20:24.220 --> 00:20:24.599
 used to

00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:25.039
 have to

00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:25.679
 hold life

00:20:25.679 --> 00:20:26.139
 together

00:20:26.139 --> 00:20:27.039
 don't work

00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:27.599
 anymore.

00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:31.459
 And so

00:20:31.459 --> 00:20:33.220
 your true

00:20:33.220 --> 00:20:34.059
 support,

00:20:34.579 --> 00:20:35.019
 the things

00:20:35.019 --> 00:20:35.319
 that you

00:20:35.319 --> 00:20:35.879
 really do

00:20:35.879 --> 00:20:36.480
 trust,

00:20:36.899 --> 00:20:37.359
 come to

00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:37.980
 the surface,

00:20:38.459 --> 00:20:39.299
 they fail,

00:20:40.819 --> 00:20:41.599
 and now we

00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:42.000
 see what

00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:42.319
 you're really

00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:42.699
 like.

00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:43.980
 That would

00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:44.720
 never happen

00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:46.259
 outside of

00:20:46.259 --> 00:20:46.740
 the stress

00:20:46.740 --> 00:20:47.179
 test.

00:20:47.299 --> 00:20:47.959
 We don't

00:20:47.959 --> 00:20:48.639
 see the

00:20:48.639 --> 00:20:49.319
 reality of

00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:49.859
 faith while

00:20:49.859 --> 00:20:50.480
 we're relaxing

00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:50.859
 on the

00:20:50.859 --> 00:20:51.199
 sofa.

00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:51.360
 that.

00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:54.640
 So,

00:20:54.980 --> 00:20:55.559
 will your

00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:55.779
 Heavenly

00:20:55.779 --> 00:20:57.240
 Father lead

00:20:57.240 --> 00:20:59.039
 you intentionally

00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:00.620
 to a hard

00:21:00.620 --> 00:21:01.279
 place?

00:21:02.380 --> 00:21:02.940
 Absolutely.

00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:05.420
 Cheer up.

00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:09.380
 Is it because

00:21:09.380 --> 00:21:09.980
 He's trying to

00:21:09.980 --> 00:21:10.559
 crush you?

00:21:12.279 --> 00:21:12.799
 Absolutely

00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:13.400
 not.

00:21:15.740 --> 00:21:16.559
 What He is

00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:17.259
 trying to do

00:21:17.259 --> 00:21:18.680
 is to crush

00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:19.640
 what is false.

00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:21.940
 To bring to

00:21:21.940 --> 00:21:22.640
 life what is

00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:22.980
 true.

00:21:25.059 --> 00:21:25.400
 And the

00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:26.160
 wilderness is

00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:26.799
 the necessary

00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:27.420
 place for

00:21:27.420 --> 00:21:27.700
 that.

00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:31.039
 So,

00:21:31.120 --> 00:21:31.620
 that's that

00:21:31.620 --> 00:21:32.480
 normalcy and

00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:33.279
 the necessity

00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:34.380
 of this

00:21:34.380 --> 00:21:34.960
 wilderness.

00:21:35.740 --> 00:21:36.700
 We can't

00:21:36.700 --> 00:21:37.299
 escape it.

00:21:37.380 --> 00:21:38.160
 It is where

00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:38.880
 we live.

00:21:38.940 --> 00:21:39.420
 But now we

00:21:39.420 --> 00:21:39.779
 see the

00:21:39.779 --> 00:21:40.500
 challenge in

00:21:40.500 --> 00:21:40.940
 the wilderness.

00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:42.620
 How does

00:21:42.620 --> 00:21:44.200
 really the

00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:45.420
 stress come

00:21:45.420 --> 00:21:46.559
 on Jesus?

00:21:46.559 --> 00:21:48.500
 in this

00:21:48.500 --> 00:21:49.019
 account,

00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:49.659
 we're not

00:21:49.659 --> 00:21:50.200
 only given

00:21:50.200 --> 00:21:50.679
 again that

00:21:50.679 --> 00:21:51.559
 reality of

00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:51.960
 the wilderness,

00:21:52.159 --> 00:21:52.419
 but we're

00:21:52.419 --> 00:21:53.220
 also given

00:21:53.220 --> 00:21:54.359
 insight into

00:21:54.359 --> 00:21:55.139
 the nature

00:21:55.139 --> 00:21:56.139
 of how the

00:21:56.139 --> 00:21:56.960
 challenges are

00:21:56.960 --> 00:21:57.579
 going to

00:21:57.579 --> 00:21:57.980
 come.

00:21:58.759 --> 00:21:59.480
 And this

00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:00.139
 is vital

00:22:00.139 --> 00:22:00.559
 for us.

00:22:00.579 --> 00:22:00.740
 And we

00:22:00.740 --> 00:22:01.059
 have to

00:22:01.059 --> 00:22:01.619
 remember the

00:22:01.619 --> 00:22:02.279
 context.

00:22:03.379 --> 00:22:04.139
 Remember what

00:22:04.139 --> 00:22:04.720
 has Jesus

00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.179
 just experienced?

00:22:07.220 --> 00:22:08.019
 He's just

00:22:08.019 --> 00:22:08.980
 experienced this

00:22:08.980 --> 00:22:10.139
 great moment

00:22:10.139 --> 00:22:10.740
 with the

00:22:10.740 --> 00:22:11.240
 Spirit and

00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:11.859
 the Father

00:22:11.859 --> 00:22:12.799
 and His

00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:13.819
 Sonship.

00:22:13.819 --> 00:22:15.700
 His

00:22:15.700 --> 00:22:16.879
 identity as

00:22:16.879 --> 00:22:17.460
 the beloved

00:22:17.460 --> 00:22:18.139
 Son in

00:22:18.139 --> 00:22:18.519
 whom the

00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:19.019
 Father is

00:22:19.019 --> 00:22:19.759
 well-pleased

00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:20.379
 is front

00:22:20.379 --> 00:22:21.099
 and center.

00:22:23.399 --> 00:22:24.500
 And now

00:22:24.500 --> 00:22:24.899
 as He

00:22:24.899 --> 00:22:25.859
 enters into

00:22:25.859 --> 00:22:26.740
 the wilderness,

00:22:28.379 --> 00:22:29.500
 that

00:22:29.500 --> 00:22:31.119
 is what

00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:31.980
 is going

00:22:31.980 --> 00:22:32.599
 to be

00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:32.960
 tested.

00:22:35.399 --> 00:22:36.200
 You know,

00:22:36.259 --> 00:22:36.619
 He gets

00:22:36.619 --> 00:22:37.039
 out into

00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:37.439
 the wilderness

00:22:37.439 --> 00:22:37.839
 and then

00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:38.319
 immediately

00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:39.500
 He's been

00:22:39.500 --> 00:22:39.839
 there for

00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:40.700
 40 days

00:22:40.700 --> 00:22:42.659
 and the

00:22:42.659 --> 00:22:43.379
 enemy comes

00:22:43.380 --> 00:22:43.920
 to Him

00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:45.020
 and says

00:22:45.020 --> 00:22:45.480
 what?

00:22:46.840 --> 00:22:47.520
 If

00:22:47.520 --> 00:22:49.580
 you are

00:22:49.580 --> 00:22:50.700
 the Son

00:22:50.700 --> 00:22:51.200
 of God.

00:22:52.720 --> 00:22:53.460
 If

00:22:53.460 --> 00:22:56.880
 He's

00:22:56.880 --> 00:22:57.680
 trying to

00:22:57.680 --> 00:22:58.940
 bring doubt

00:22:58.940 --> 00:22:59.860
 by

00:22:59.860 --> 00:23:01.680
 showing Him

00:23:01.680 --> 00:23:03.200
 the hardness

00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:03.980
 of the

00:23:03.980 --> 00:23:04.360
 wilderness

00:23:04.360 --> 00:23:06.400
 and He

00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:07.040
 says this

00:23:07.040 --> 00:23:07.580
 to Jesus

00:23:07.580 --> 00:23:08.340
 twice.

00:23:08.760 --> 00:23:09.240
 In the

00:23:09.240 --> 00:23:10.180
 first temptation

00:23:10.180 --> 00:23:10.580
 the way

00:23:10.580 --> 00:23:11.000
 that Luke

00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:11.760
 arranges them

00:23:11.760 --> 00:23:12.760
 in the

00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:13.319
 first one

00:23:13.319 --> 00:23:13.960
 and then

00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:14.180
 in the

00:23:14.180 --> 00:23:14.819
 last one.

00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:17.180
 Both of

00:23:17.180 --> 00:23:17.619
 those He

00:23:17.619 --> 00:23:18.759
 begins by

00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:19.859
 saying if

00:23:19.859 --> 00:23:20.440
 you are

00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:20.980
 the Son.

00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:21.640
 Well,

00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:22.039
 in the

00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:22.519
 middle one

00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:22.740
 it's

00:23:22.740 --> 00:23:23.279
 interesting

00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:24.940
 because He

00:23:24.940 --> 00:23:25.799
 challenges them.

00:23:25.839 --> 00:23:26.299
 He takes

00:23:26.299 --> 00:23:26.759
 them to a

00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:27.160
 place and

00:23:27.160 --> 00:23:27.640
 shows Him

00:23:27.640 --> 00:23:28.019
 all the

00:23:28.019 --> 00:23:28.299
 kingdoms

00:23:28.299 --> 00:23:28.680
 of the

00:23:28.680 --> 00:23:29.079
 world.

00:23:30.660 --> 00:23:31.279
 But if

00:23:31.279 --> 00:23:31.640
 we read

00:23:31.640 --> 00:23:32.200
 back in

00:23:32.200 --> 00:23:33.099
 Psalm 2

00:23:33.099 --> 00:23:35.339
 verses 7

00:23:35.339 --> 00:23:35.920
 and 8

00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:36.879
 hear these

00:23:36.879 --> 00:23:37.339
 words.

00:23:38.759 --> 00:23:38.960
 It said,

00:23:38.960 --> 00:23:39.380
 I will

00:23:39.380 --> 00:23:40.460
 tell of

00:23:40.460 --> 00:23:40.900
 the

00:23:40.900 --> 00:23:41.360
 decree

00:23:41.360 --> 00:23:42.620
 the

00:23:42.620 --> 00:23:42.840
 Lord

00:23:42.840 --> 00:23:43.360
 said to

00:23:43.360 --> 00:23:43.600
 me

00:23:43.600 --> 00:23:44.240
 you

00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:44.720
 are

00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:45.100
 my

00:23:45.100 --> 00:23:45.700
 son

00:23:45.700 --> 00:23:47.140
 today

00:23:47.140 --> 00:23:47.480
 I

00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:47.620
 have

00:23:47.620 --> 00:23:48.100
 begotten

00:23:48.100 --> 00:23:48.420
 you

00:23:48.420 --> 00:23:49.519
 ask of

00:23:49.519 --> 00:23:50.100
 me

00:23:50.100 --> 00:23:52.019
 and I

00:23:52.019 --> 00:23:52.460
 will make

00:23:52.460 --> 00:23:53.120
 the nations

00:23:53.120 --> 00:23:53.460
 your

00:23:53.460 --> 00:23:54.100
 heritage

00:23:54.100 --> 00:23:55.319
 and the

00:23:55.319 --> 00:23:55.660
 ends of

00:23:55.660 --> 00:23:56.079
 the earth

00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:57.380
 your

00:23:57.380 --> 00:23:58.380
 possession.

00:24:00.019 --> 00:24:00.680
 I mean

00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:01.000
 look at

00:24:01.000 --> 00:24:01.400
 this.

00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:03.440
 There's the

00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:03.880
 declaration.

00:24:04.059 --> 00:24:04.559
 It sounds

00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:05.440
 so familiar

00:24:05.440 --> 00:24:06.059
 from what we

00:24:06.059 --> 00:24:06.539
 just heard

00:24:06.539 --> 00:24:06.940
 back in

00:24:06.940 --> 00:24:07.460
 Luke 3.

00:24:07.460 --> 00:24:09.880
 And Satan

00:24:09.880 --> 00:24:11.259
 is confronting

00:24:11.259 --> 00:24:12.819
 Jesus.

00:24:13.840 --> 00:24:14.140
 He's

00:24:14.140 --> 00:24:14.600
 confronting

00:24:14.600 --> 00:24:15.460
 that promise.

00:24:17.000 --> 00:24:17.880
 And he's

00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:18.400
 confronting

00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:19.360
 his

00:24:19.360 --> 00:24:20.200
 true

00:24:20.200 --> 00:24:21.039
 identity.

00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:22.539
 And he's

00:24:22.539 --> 00:24:22.960
 saying

00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:23.900
 that the

00:24:23.900 --> 00:24:24.360
 hardness

00:24:24.360 --> 00:24:25.039
 of the

00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:25.460
 wilderness

00:24:25.460 --> 00:24:27.240
 is saying

00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:28.279
 that obviously

00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:29.740
 you've got

00:24:29.740 --> 00:24:30.880
 it wrong.

00:24:33.460 --> 00:24:34.500
 So here's

00:24:34.500 --> 00:24:35.000
 the crucial

00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:35.960
 issue for us

00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:36.700
 as we battle

00:24:36.700 --> 00:24:37.480
 against sin.

00:24:38.840 --> 00:24:39.460
 If you're

00:24:39.460 --> 00:24:39.740
 going to

00:24:39.740 --> 00:24:40.480
 defeat sin

00:24:40.480 --> 00:24:41.019
 you've got

00:24:41.019 --> 00:24:41.580
 to fight

00:24:41.580 --> 00:24:42.279
 the right

00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:42.960
 thing.

00:24:43.460 --> 00:24:43.860
 You've got

00:24:43.860 --> 00:24:44.259
 to fight

00:24:44.259 --> 00:24:44.720
 the right

00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:45.140
 enemy.

00:24:47.299 --> 00:24:47.580
 And I

00:24:47.580 --> 00:24:47.980
 think too

00:24:47.980 --> 00:24:48.700
 often when

00:24:48.700 --> 00:24:49.080
 we get

00:24:49.080 --> 00:24:49.900
 into battle

00:24:49.900 --> 00:24:50.440
 with our

00:24:50.440 --> 00:24:50.980
 sin

00:24:50.980 --> 00:24:53.039
 we see

00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:53.380
 it as

00:24:53.380 --> 00:24:54.059
 our behavior.

00:24:54.259 --> 00:24:54.740
 What I

00:24:54.740 --> 00:24:55.039
 need to

00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:55.519
 do is I

00:24:55.519 --> 00:24:55.799
 need to

00:24:55.799 --> 00:24:56.440
 fight this

00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:57.140
 bad behavior.

00:24:57.299 --> 00:24:57.720
 I need to

00:24:57.720 --> 00:24:58.460
 fight to

00:24:58.460 --> 00:24:58.940
 gain a

00:24:58.940 --> 00:24:59.240
 little bit

00:24:59.240 --> 00:24:59.840
 more self

00:24:59.840 --> 00:25:00.440
 control.

00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:02.019
 I need

00:25:02.019 --> 00:25:02.279
 more

00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:03.279
 determination

00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:06.380
 simply to

00:25:06.380 --> 00:25:07.700
 bring myself

00:25:07.700 --> 00:25:08.500
 into line

00:25:08.500 --> 00:25:09.480
 with all

00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:10.100
 of this

00:25:10.100 --> 00:25:10.820
 biblical

00:25:10.820 --> 00:25:11.720
 rules and

00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:12.320
 regulations

00:25:12.320 --> 00:25:13.660
 and values

00:25:13.660 --> 00:25:14.360
 and so

00:25:14.360 --> 00:25:14.799
 forth.

00:25:16.380 --> 00:25:17.279
 The problem

00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:17.779
 is that's

00:25:17.779 --> 00:25:18.340
 not where

00:25:18.340 --> 00:25:18.880
 the enemy

00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:20.240
 comes to

00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:20.799
 do battle.

00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:24.160
 He's doing

00:25:24.160 --> 00:25:25.019
 battle at

00:25:25.019 --> 00:25:25.380
 the very

00:25:25.380 --> 00:25:26.980
 core of

00:25:26.980 --> 00:25:27.380
 who we

00:25:27.380 --> 00:25:29.539
 are and

00:25:29.539 --> 00:25:30.660
 what we

00:25:30.660 --> 00:25:31.740
 believe.

00:25:33.779 --> 00:25:34.440
 You know

00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:35.000
 if I am

00:25:35.000 --> 00:25:35.420
 battling

00:25:35.420 --> 00:25:37.440
 sexual sin

00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:39.360
 or if I'm

00:25:39.360 --> 00:25:40.259
 battling an

00:25:40.259 --> 00:25:41.360
 addiction to

00:25:41.360 --> 00:25:42.620
 something or

00:25:42.620 --> 00:25:43.460
 if I'm

00:25:43.460 --> 00:25:44.759
 battling an

00:25:44.759 --> 00:25:45.960
 anxiety issue

00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:46.960
 or I can't

00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:48.240
 control my

00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:49.900
 temper or

00:25:49.900 --> 00:25:51.460
 any of

00:25:51.460 --> 00:25:51.900
 that at

00:25:51.900 --> 00:25:52.380
 the heart

00:25:52.380 --> 00:25:52.860
 of it

00:25:52.860 --> 00:25:55.160
 the issue

00:25:55.160 --> 00:25:55.839
 is

00:25:55.839 --> 00:25:57.419
 not

00:25:57.419 --> 00:25:58.859
 how much

00:25:58.859 --> 00:25:59.559
 self-control

00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:00.319
 I have

00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:00.679
 I mean

00:26:00.679 --> 00:26:01.099
 that is

00:26:01.099 --> 00:26:01.659
 part of

00:26:01.659 --> 00:26:01.899
 it

00:26:01.899 --> 00:26:04.279
 but the

00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:04.779
 biggest

00:26:04.779 --> 00:26:05.339
 issue

00:26:05.339 --> 00:26:05.819
 is

00:26:05.819 --> 00:26:07.019
 what

00:26:07.019 --> 00:26:07.919
 do I

00:26:07.919 --> 00:26:08.699
 believe

00:26:08.699 --> 00:26:09.379
 about

00:26:09.379 --> 00:26:09.899
 God?

00:26:11.419 --> 00:26:12.439
 Is

00:26:12.439 --> 00:26:13.419
 he

00:26:13.419 --> 00:26:14.399
 good?

00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:16.639
 Does

00:26:16.639 --> 00:26:17.059
 he

00:26:17.059 --> 00:26:17.959
 love

00:26:17.959 --> 00:26:18.699
 me?

00:26:20.639 --> 00:26:21.399
 Is

00:26:21.399 --> 00:26:22.179
 his promise

00:26:22.179 --> 00:26:23.159
 sure?

00:26:23.160 --> 00:26:25.060
 God

00:26:25.060 --> 00:26:26.220
 that's

00:26:26.220 --> 00:26:26.759
 where

00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:27.500
 the

00:26:27.500 --> 00:26:28.240
 challenge

00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:29.220
 is

00:26:29.220 --> 00:26:30.700
 you

00:26:30.700 --> 00:26:30.779
 know

00:26:30.779 --> 00:26:31.140
 one of

00:26:31.140 --> 00:26:32.920
 one of

00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:33.500
 my great

00:26:33.500 --> 00:26:34.560
 lifelong

00:26:34.560 --> 00:26:35.140
 struggles

00:26:35.140 --> 00:26:37.240
 I think

00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:37.640
 is my

00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:38.380
 reliance

00:26:38.380 --> 00:26:39.019
 on

00:26:39.019 --> 00:26:40.420
 material

00:26:40.420 --> 00:26:41.779
 resources

00:26:41.779 --> 00:26:43.240
 to give

00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:43.540
 me a

00:26:43.540 --> 00:26:44.000
 sense of

00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:44.560
 peace

00:26:44.560 --> 00:26:45.700
 and rest

00:26:45.700 --> 00:26:46.840
 in life

00:26:46.840 --> 00:26:47.860
 when I

00:26:47.860 --> 00:26:48.840
 pull up

00:26:48.840 --> 00:26:49.560
 the computer

00:26:49.560 --> 00:26:50.840
 and quicken

00:26:50.840 --> 00:26:51.259
 and I look

00:26:51.259 --> 00:26:51.680
 at all the

00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:52.080
 numbers

00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:52.799
 and the

00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:53.279
 numbers

00:26:53.279 --> 00:26:53.720
 of the

00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:54.000
 bank

00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:54.500
 accounts

00:26:54.500 --> 00:26:54.819
 and the

00:26:54.819 --> 00:26:55.039
 credit

00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:55.379
 cards

00:26:55.379 --> 00:26:55.639
 and all

00:26:55.639 --> 00:26:55.839
 that

00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:56.220
 stuff

00:26:56.220 --> 00:26:57.480
 when there's

00:26:57.480 --> 00:26:57.720
 a lot

00:26:57.720 --> 00:26:58.159
 of red

00:26:58.159 --> 00:26:58.539
 on that

00:26:58.539 --> 00:26:59.159
 page

00:26:59.159 --> 00:27:01.359
 I

00:27:01.359 --> 00:27:02.639
 get

00:27:02.639 --> 00:27:03.980
 terribly

00:27:03.980 --> 00:27:05.299
 anxious

00:27:05.299 --> 00:27:06.299
 fear

00:27:06.299 --> 00:27:07.639
 and I

00:27:07.639 --> 00:27:08.039
 feel

00:27:08.039 --> 00:27:08.500
 like

00:27:08.500 --> 00:27:09.240
 this

00:27:09.240 --> 00:27:10.339
 security

00:27:10.339 --> 00:27:10.899
 that I

00:27:10.899 --> 00:27:11.359
 trust

00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:11.680
 this

00:27:11.680 --> 00:27:13.039
 foundation

00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:13.980
 under my

00:27:13.980 --> 00:27:14.319
 feet

00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:14.779
 is no

00:27:14.779 --> 00:27:15.159
 longer

00:27:15.159 --> 00:27:15.639
 there

00:27:15.639 --> 00:27:16.419
 and I

00:27:16.419 --> 00:27:16.799
 become

00:27:16.799 --> 00:27:17.119
 very

00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:17.859
 vulnerable

00:27:17.859 --> 00:27:19.399
 and so

00:27:19.399 --> 00:27:19.899
 at that

00:27:19.899 --> 00:27:20.440
 point

00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:21.460
 then

00:27:21.460 --> 00:27:22.259
 I get

00:27:22.259 --> 00:27:22.579
 really

00:27:22.579 --> 00:27:23.099
 uptight

00:27:23.099 --> 00:27:23.480
 I get

00:27:23.480 --> 00:27:24.180
 stressed

00:27:24.180 --> 00:27:24.599
 and I'm

00:27:24.599 --> 00:27:25.039
 just not

00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:25.539
 very fun

00:27:25.539 --> 00:27:25.759
 to be

00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:26.059
 around

00:27:26.059 --> 00:27:28.099
 so how

00:27:28.099 --> 00:27:28.319
 do you

00:27:28.319 --> 00:27:28.700
 fight

00:27:28.700 --> 00:27:29.220
 that kind

00:27:29.220 --> 00:27:29.339
 of

00:27:29.339 --> 00:27:29.859
 anxiety

00:27:29.859 --> 00:27:31.879
 how do

00:27:31.879 --> 00:27:32.459
 you fight

00:27:32.459 --> 00:27:32.959
 those kind

00:27:32.959 --> 00:27:33.500
 of fears

00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:34.259
 and that

00:27:34.259 --> 00:27:34.959
 kind of

00:27:34.959 --> 00:27:36.159
 dependence

00:27:36.159 --> 00:27:37.240
 on

00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:37.939
 material

00:27:37.939 --> 00:27:38.779
 well I

00:27:38.779 --> 00:27:39.419
 could

00:27:39.419 --> 00:27:40.799
 go back

00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:41.240
 to all the

00:27:41.240 --> 00:27:41.579
 scriptures

00:27:41.579 --> 00:27:42.339
 and said

00:27:42.339 --> 00:27:43.559
 be generous

00:27:43.559 --> 00:27:43.979
 and give

00:27:43.979 --> 00:27:44.319
 all your

00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:44.879
 money away

00:27:44.879 --> 00:27:48.379
 or I

00:27:48.379 --> 00:27:48.799
 could go

00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:49.679
 memorize all

00:27:49.679 --> 00:27:50.240
 those scriptures

00:27:50.240 --> 00:27:50.899
 that say

00:27:50.899 --> 00:27:52.319
 fear not

00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:57.279
 is it

00:27:57.279 --> 00:27:57.419
 going to

00:27:57.419 --> 00:27:57.740
 work

00:27:57.740 --> 00:28:00.059
 afraid

00:28:00.059 --> 00:28:00.460
 not

00:28:00.460 --> 00:28:03.279
 because

00:28:03.279 --> 00:28:03.740
 that's not

00:28:03.740 --> 00:28:04.259
 the issue

00:28:04.259 --> 00:28:07.279
 the issue

00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:07.859
 is

00:28:07.859 --> 00:28:10.339
 that

00:28:10.339 --> 00:28:11.700
 this is

00:28:11.700 --> 00:28:12.019
 what the

00:28:12.019 --> 00:28:12.240
 enemy

00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:12.819
 basically

00:28:12.819 --> 00:28:13.419
 says

00:28:13.419 --> 00:28:14.639
 at that

00:28:14.639 --> 00:28:15.019
 point

00:28:15.019 --> 00:28:15.439
 he says

00:28:15.439 --> 00:28:15.779
 you

00:28:15.779 --> 00:28:16.399
 are

00:28:16.399 --> 00:28:16.839
 alone

00:28:16.839 --> 00:28:19.480
 it's

00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:19.819
 all up

00:28:19.819 --> 00:28:20.240
 to you

00:28:20.240 --> 00:28:22.819
 you can

00:28:22.819 --> 00:28:24.500
 live here

00:28:24.500 --> 00:28:24.900
 in this

00:28:24.900 --> 00:28:25.319
 hardship

00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:26.099
 and struggle

00:28:26.099 --> 00:28:26.539
 and you're

00:28:26.539 --> 00:28:27.220
 going to

00:28:27.220 --> 00:28:27.640
 you know

00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:28.220
 get to

00:28:28.220 --> 00:28:28.839
 retirement

00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:29.640
 and you're

00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:29.980
 going to

00:28:29.980 --> 00:28:30.839
 not have

00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:31.279
 any money

00:28:31.279 --> 00:28:31.519
 and you're

00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:31.700
 going to

00:28:31.700 --> 00:28:32.700
 be stuck

00:28:32.700 --> 00:28:33.059
 in some

00:28:33.059 --> 00:28:33.259
 old

00:28:33.259 --> 00:28:33.839
 people's

00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:34.059
 home

00:28:34.059 --> 00:28:34.579
 and nobody's

00:28:34.579 --> 00:28:34.759
 going to

00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:35.140
 come see

00:28:35.140 --> 00:28:35.720
 you

00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:40.220
 is that

00:28:40.220 --> 00:28:40.440
 what you

00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:40.740
 want

00:28:40.740 --> 00:28:43.019
 or

00:28:43.019 --> 00:28:44.940
 you can

00:28:44.940 --> 00:28:45.099
 take

00:28:45.099 --> 00:28:45.620
 shortcut

00:28:45.620 --> 00:28:48.380
 you can

00:28:48.380 --> 00:28:48.700
 fudge

00:28:48.700 --> 00:28:49.039
 here

00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:49.940
 just

00:28:49.940 --> 00:28:50.139
 not

00:28:50.139 --> 00:28:50.420
 give

00:28:50.420 --> 00:28:50.559
 as

00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:50.819
 much

00:28:50.819 --> 00:28:51.159
 there

00:28:51.159 --> 00:28:52.480
 you

00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:52.579
 can

00:28:52.579 --> 00:28:52.659
 do

00:28:52.659 --> 00:28:52.759
 all

00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:52.899
 these

00:28:52.899 --> 00:28:53.119
 things

00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:53.599
 and that

00:28:53.599 --> 00:28:53.839
 will

00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:54.159
 sure

00:28:54.159 --> 00:28:54.500
 make

00:28:54.500 --> 00:28:54.680
 all

00:28:54.680 --> 00:28:54.899
 those

00:28:54.899 --> 00:28:55.559
 numbers

00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:56.440
 on the

00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:56.799
 computer

00:28:56.799 --> 00:28:57.240
 screen

00:28:57.240 --> 00:28:57.819
 black

00:28:57.819 --> 00:28:58.200
 instead

00:28:58.200 --> 00:28:58.859
 of red

00:28:58.859 --> 00:29:00.899
 and some

00:29:00.899 --> 00:29:01.180
 of those

00:29:01.180 --> 00:29:01.639
 things you'd

00:29:01.639 --> 00:29:02.019
 really like

00:29:02.019 --> 00:29:02.420
 to get

00:29:02.420 --> 00:29:03.200
 you could

00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:08.519
 but he

00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:08.619
 says

00:29:08.619 --> 00:29:08.779
 you're

00:29:08.779 --> 00:29:09.359
 all alone

00:29:09.359 --> 00:29:11.099
 and it's

00:29:11.099 --> 00:29:11.359
 all up

00:29:11.359 --> 00:29:11.720
 to you

00:29:11.720 --> 00:29:15.099
 that's

00:29:15.099 --> 00:29:16.039
 the lie

00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:19.759
 and he

00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:20.059
 offers

00:29:20.059 --> 00:29:20.619
 a shortcut

00:29:20.619 --> 00:29:20.920
 and this

00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:21.420
 is exactly

00:29:21.420 --> 00:29:21.720
 what

00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:22.019
 enemy

00:29:22.019 --> 00:29:22.359
 does

00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:22.539
 to

00:29:22.539 --> 00:29:22.940
 Jesus

00:29:22.940 --> 00:29:23.899
 Jesus

00:29:23.899 --> 00:29:24.319
 has been

00:29:24.319 --> 00:29:24.599
 out in

00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:24.700
 the

00:29:24.700 --> 00:29:25.019
 wilderness

00:29:25.019 --> 00:29:26.079
 he's

00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:26.440
 been out

00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:26.599
 there

00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:27.319
 for 40

00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:28.200
 days

00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:28.599
 and he

00:29:28.599 --> 00:29:29.240
 has not

00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:29.619
 eaten

00:29:29.619 --> 00:29:30.059
 and I

00:29:30.059 --> 00:29:30.259
 think

00:29:30.259 --> 00:29:30.539
 it's

00:29:30.539 --> 00:29:30.799
 such

00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:31.019
 an

00:29:31.019 --> 00:29:32.119
 understatement

00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:32.720
 where Luke

00:29:32.720 --> 00:29:33.119
 writes

00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:33.379
 and he

00:29:33.379 --> 00:29:33.619
 got

00:29:33.619 --> 00:29:34.159
 hungry

00:29:34.159 --> 00:29:36.920
 yeah

00:29:36.920 --> 00:29:39.359
 I'm

00:29:39.359 --> 00:29:39.680
 dying

00:29:39.680 --> 00:29:40.059
 after

00:29:40.059 --> 00:29:40.619
 24

00:29:40.619 --> 00:29:41.099
 hours

00:29:41.099 --> 00:29:41.339
 I

00:29:41.339 --> 00:29:41.680
 cannot

00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:42.339
 imagine

00:29:42.339 --> 00:29:42.779
 going

00:29:42.779 --> 00:29:43.359
 a month

00:29:43.359 --> 00:29:43.559
 and a

00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:44.019
 half

00:29:44.019 --> 00:29:48.200
 and he

00:29:48.200 --> 00:29:48.539
 calls

00:29:48.539 --> 00:29:48.920
 Jesus

00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:49.400
 attention

00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:49.819
 to his

00:29:49.819 --> 00:29:50.379
 suffering

00:29:50.379 --> 00:29:52.299
 and he

00:29:52.299 --> 00:29:52.579
 said hey

00:29:52.579 --> 00:29:52.900
 you can

00:29:52.900 --> 00:29:53.420
 end this

00:29:53.420 --> 00:29:54.000
 right now

00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:55.460
 you've

00:29:55.460 --> 00:29:55.799
 got the

00:29:55.799 --> 00:29:56.299
 power

00:29:56.299 --> 00:29:58.059
 just

00:29:58.059 --> 00:29:59.099
 come in

00:29:59.099 --> 00:29:59.920
 that stone

00:29:59.920 --> 00:30:00.379
 will become

00:30:00.379 --> 00:30:00.900
 bread

00:30:00.900 --> 00:30:01.400
 and this

00:30:01.400 --> 00:30:01.639
 will all

00:30:01.639 --> 00:30:02.119
 be over

00:30:02.119 --> 00:30:02.900
 you get

00:30:02.900 --> 00:30:03.579
 relief

00:30:03.579 --> 00:30:08.940
 that's

00:30:08.940 --> 00:30:09.079
 the

00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:09.480
 reasoning

00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:12.500
 a son

00:30:12.500 --> 00:30:13.079
 should not

00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:13.500
 suffer

00:30:13.500 --> 00:30:14.220
 like this

00:30:14.220 --> 00:30:15.119
 if

00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:15.599
 God

00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:15.859
 were

00:30:15.859 --> 00:30:16.539
 good

00:30:16.539 --> 00:30:19.119
 and

00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:19.319
 you

00:30:19.319 --> 00:30:19.759
 were so

00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:20.279
 precious

00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:22.539
 then

00:30:22.539 --> 00:30:23.919
 you

00:30:23.919 --> 00:30:24.159
 should

00:30:24.159 --> 00:30:24.359
 not

00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:24.699
 be in

00:30:24.699 --> 00:30:25.019
 pain

00:30:25.019 --> 00:30:26.480
 let's

00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:26.759
 fix

00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:27.179
 this

00:30:27.179 --> 00:30:28.559
 because

00:30:28.559 --> 00:30:29.099
 obviously

00:30:29.099 --> 00:30:29.480
 God

00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:29.980
 is not

00:30:29.980 --> 00:30:30.379
 there

00:30:30.379 --> 00:30:32.599
 so

00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:32.819
 it's

00:30:32.819 --> 00:30:33.079
 up to

00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:33.319
 you

00:30:33.319 --> 00:30:34.199
 you know

00:30:34.199 --> 00:30:34.619
 the second

00:30:34.619 --> 00:30:35.179
 temptation

00:30:35.179 --> 00:30:35.659
 is the

00:30:35.659 --> 00:30:36.019
 same

00:30:36.019 --> 00:30:37.339
 it's a

00:30:37.339 --> 00:30:37.639
 little bit

00:30:37.639 --> 00:30:38.099
 different

00:30:38.099 --> 00:30:38.939
 he's now

00:30:38.939 --> 00:30:39.259
 here

00:30:39.259 --> 00:30:39.679
 he's not

00:30:39.679 --> 00:30:40.079
 just

00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:41.220
 tempting

00:30:41.220 --> 00:30:41.779
 him to

00:30:41.779 --> 00:30:42.299
 bring

00:30:42.299 --> 00:30:42.940
 relief

00:30:42.940 --> 00:30:43.700
 in his

00:30:43.700 --> 00:30:44.539
 momentary

00:30:44.539 --> 00:30:44.960
 hunger

00:30:44.960 --> 00:30:45.500
 but he's

00:30:45.500 --> 00:30:46.019
 now

00:30:46.019 --> 00:30:46.680
 attempting

00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:47.720
 him

00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:48.480
 for

00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:49.099
 power

00:30:49.099 --> 00:30:49.419
 and

00:30:49.419 --> 00:30:50.139
 control

00:30:50.139 --> 00:30:51.259
 and

00:30:51.259 --> 00:30:51.539
 he

00:30:51.539 --> 00:30:52.019
 basically

00:30:52.019 --> 00:30:52.319
 says

00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:52.680
 Jesus

00:30:52.680 --> 00:30:53.359
 you don't

00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:53.899
 have to

00:30:53.899 --> 00:30:54.180
 go

00:30:54.180 --> 00:30:54.519
 this

00:30:54.519 --> 00:30:55.059
 route

00:30:55.059 --> 00:30:55.480
 that

00:30:55.480 --> 00:30:55.720
 you're

00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:56.099
 on

00:30:56.099 --> 00:30:56.639
 you

00:30:56.639 --> 00:30:56.819
 can

00:30:56.819 --> 00:30:57.059
 get

00:30:57.059 --> 00:30:57.299
 out

00:30:57.299 --> 00:30:57.399
 of

00:30:57.399 --> 00:30:57.599
 this

00:30:57.599 --> 00:30:58.019
 suffering

00:30:58.019 --> 00:30:58.519
 you

00:30:58.519 --> 00:30:59.059
 don't

00:30:59.059 --> 00:30:59.299
 have

00:30:59.299 --> 00:30:59.480
 to

00:30:59.480 --> 00:30:59.639
 go

00:30:59.639 --> 00:30:59.819
 down

00:30:59.819 --> 00:31:00.059
 this

00:31:00.059 --> 00:31:00.480
 path

00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:00.659
 to

00:31:00.659 --> 00:31:01.159
 Jerusalem

00:31:01.159 --> 00:31:01.980
 I

00:31:01.980 --> 00:31:02.240
 know

00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:02.460
 where

00:31:02.460 --> 00:31:02.720
 you're

00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:03.139
 going

00:31:03.139 --> 00:31:03.819
 we

00:31:03.819 --> 00:31:04.019
 can

00:31:04.019 --> 00:31:04.599
 skip

00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:04.859
 all

00:31:04.859 --> 00:31:05.200
 that

00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:05.599
 just

00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:06.759
 I

00:31:06.759 --> 00:31:06.960
 can

00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:07.180
 give

00:31:07.180 --> 00:31:07.279
 you

00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:07.859
 everything

00:31:07.859 --> 00:31:10.399
 obviously

00:31:10.399 --> 00:31:11.000
 you're

00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:11.339
 alone

00:31:11.339 --> 00:31:11.579
 out

00:31:11.579 --> 00:31:11.759
 here

00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:12.139
 God

00:31:12.139 --> 00:31:12.359
 has

00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:12.839
 abandoned

00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:13.359
 you

00:31:13.359 --> 00:31:17.500
 the

00:31:17.500 --> 00:31:17.759
 third

00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:18.279
 temptation

00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:18.939
 is the

00:31:18.939 --> 00:31:19.219
 same

00:31:19.219 --> 00:31:20.959
 says

00:31:20.959 --> 00:31:21.500
 if you

00:31:21.500 --> 00:31:21.839
 are the

00:31:21.839 --> 00:31:22.119
 son

00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:23.959
 throw

00:31:23.959 --> 00:31:24.459
 yourself

00:31:24.459 --> 00:31:24.919
 off the

00:31:24.919 --> 00:31:25.179
 top

00:31:25.179 --> 00:31:25.459
 of this

00:31:25.459 --> 00:31:25.799
 temple

00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:28.539
 and

00:31:28.539 --> 00:31:28.719
 it'll

00:31:28.719 --> 00:31:28.879
 be

00:31:28.879 --> 00:31:29.559
 glorious

00:31:29.559 --> 00:31:31.599
 forget

00:31:31.599 --> 00:31:32.399
 the cross

00:31:32.399 --> 00:31:32.779
 forget

00:31:32.779 --> 00:31:33.619
 the humility

00:31:33.619 --> 00:31:34.079
 forget

00:31:34.079 --> 00:31:34.459
 the

00:31:34.459 --> 00:31:35.019
 the

00:31:35.019 --> 00:31:35.519
 suffering

00:31:35.519 --> 00:31:35.979
 forget

00:31:35.980 --> 00:31:36.299
 all

00:31:36.299 --> 00:31:36.400
 of

00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:36.640
 that

00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:36.920
 just

00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:37.240
 throw

00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:37.720
 yourself

00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:38.039
 down

00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:38.200
 you

00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:38.380
 got

00:31:38.380 --> 00:31:38.599
 the

00:31:38.599 --> 00:31:38.960
 scriptures

00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:39.360
 here

00:31:39.360 --> 00:31:39.559
 that

00:31:39.559 --> 00:31:40.039
 support

00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:40.339
 you

00:31:40.339 --> 00:31:40.920
 just

00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:44.920
 in

00:31:44.920 --> 00:31:45.599
 everything

00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:47.779
 the

00:31:47.779 --> 00:31:48.279
 temptation

00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:48.839
 is

00:31:48.839 --> 00:31:50.339
 if

00:31:50.339 --> 00:31:50.519
 you're

00:31:50.519 --> 00:31:50.940
 suffering

00:31:50.940 --> 00:31:52.440
 God

00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:52.839
 obviously

00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:53.200
 doesn't

00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:53.400
 love

00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:53.579
 you

00:31:53.579 --> 00:31:54.860
 if

00:31:54.860 --> 00:31:55.079
 you're

00:31:55.079 --> 00:31:55.360
 if

00:31:55.360 --> 00:31:55.579
 you're

00:31:55.579 --> 00:31:55.680
 in

00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:55.779
 the

00:31:55.779 --> 00:31:55.980
 hard

00:31:55.980 --> 00:31:56.360
 place

00:31:56.360 --> 00:31:56.900
 and

00:31:56.900 --> 00:31:57.079
 you're

00:31:57.079 --> 00:31:57.519
 experiencing

00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:58.079
 pain

00:31:58.079 --> 00:31:58.620
 you're

00:31:58.620 --> 00:31:59.099
 obviously

00:31:59.099 --> 00:31:59.779
 not

00:31:59.779 --> 00:32:00.240
 the

00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:00.620
 beloved

00:32:00.620 --> 00:32:01.500
 son

00:32:01.500 --> 00:32:01.940
 in whom

00:32:01.940 --> 00:32:02.140
 the

00:32:02.140 --> 00:32:02.420
 father

00:32:02.420 --> 00:32:02.640
 is

00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:02.880
 well

00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:03.480
 pleased

00:32:03.480 --> 00:32:04.380
 so

00:32:04.380 --> 00:32:05.039
 take

00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:05.220
 the

00:32:05.220 --> 00:32:05.579
 shortcut

00:32:05.579 --> 00:32:06.439
 get

00:32:06.439 --> 00:32:06.899
 relief

00:32:06.899 --> 00:32:10.599
 and

00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:10.740
 this

00:32:10.740 --> 00:32:10.839
 is

00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:11.000
 what

00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:11.139
 he

00:32:11.139 --> 00:32:11.399
 says

00:32:11.399 --> 00:32:11.599
 to

00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:11.899
 us

00:32:11.899 --> 00:32:12.439
 when

00:32:12.439 --> 00:32:12.639
 we're

00:32:12.639 --> 00:32:12.960
 tempted

00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:13.639
 sexually

00:32:13.639 --> 00:32:14.139
 when

00:33:23.480 --> 00:33:23.919

00:33:23.920 --> 00:33:24.519
 overlook

00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:25.320
 that

 and

00:33:29.800 --> 00:33:29.920
 then

00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:30.080
 we

00:33:30.080 --> 00:33:30.300
 see

00:33:30.300 --> 00:33:30.500
 that

 it

00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:32.920
 says

00:33:32.920 --> 00:33:33.039
 and

00:33:33.039 --> 00:33:33.180
 the

00:33:33.460 --> 00:33:33.880
 leads

00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:34.060
 him

00:33:34.060 --> 00:33:34.480
 back

00:33:34.480 --> 00:33:34.779
 out

00:33:34.779 --> 00:33:34.880

 the

00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:35.340
 wilderness

00:33:35.340 --> 00:33:36.340
 into

00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:39.120
 the

00:33:39.120 --> 00:33:39.800
 victory

00:33:39.800 --> 00:33:42.779
 and

00:33:42.779 --> 00:33:42.900
 he

00:33:42.900 --> 00:33:43.200
 does

00:33:43.200 --> 00:33:43.700
 so

00:33:43.700 --> 00:33:45.820
 contrary

00:33:45.820 --> 00:33:47.320
 to

00:33:47.320 --> 00:33:47.480
 what

00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:47.880
 God's

00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:48.180
 people

00:33:48.180 --> 00:33:48.380
 have

00:33:48.380 --> 00:33:48.640
 done

00:33:48.640 --> 00:33:48.840
 up

00:33:48.840 --> 00:33:49.120
 until

00:33:49.120 --> 00:33:49.480
 now

00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:49.940
 throughout

00:33:49.940 --> 00:33:50.340
 all

00:33:50.340 --> 00:33:50.539
 the

00:33:50.539 --> 00:33:50.940
 centuries

00:33:50.940 --> 00:33:51.240
 as

00:33:51.240 --> 00:33:51.400
 they

00:33:51.400 --> 00:33:51.720
 live

00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:51.960
 through

00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:52.180
 the

00:33:52.180 --> 00:33:52.600
 wilderness

00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:53.439
 God's

00:33:53.439 --> 00:33:53.740
 people

00:33:53.740 --> 00:33:53.980
 have

00:33:53.980 --> 00:33:54.179
 been

00:33:54.179 --> 00:33:54.519
 there

00:33:54.519 --> 00:33:55.139
 every

00:33:55.139 --> 00:33:55.480
 time

00:33:55.480 --> 00:33:55.819
 things

00:33:55.819 --> 00:33:56.079
 got

00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:56.559
 hard

00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:57.119
 they

00:33:57.119 --> 00:33:57.719
 ran

00:33:57.719 --> 00:33:58.099
 and

00:33:58.099 --> 00:33:58.740
 left

00:33:58.740 --> 00:33:59.419
 and

00:33:59.419 --> 00:33:59.559
 they

00:33:59.559 --> 00:33:59.740
 went

00:33:59.740 --> 00:33:59.919
 to

00:33:59.919 --> 00:34:00.279
 other

00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:00.759
 gods

00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:00.959
 they

00:34:00.959 --> 00:34:01.159
 went

00:34:01.159 --> 00:34:01.339
 to

00:34:01.339 --> 00:34:01.699
 other

00:34:01.699 --> 00:34:02.139
 sources

00:34:02.139 --> 00:34:02.359
 they

00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:02.619
 took

00:34:02.619 --> 00:34:03.240
 shortcuts

00:34:03.240 --> 00:34:03.699
 to

00:34:03.699 --> 00:34:04.159
 cut

00:34:04.159 --> 00:34:05.539
 short

00:34:05.539 --> 00:34:05.779
 the

00:34:05.779 --> 00:34:06.139
 pain

00:34:06.139 --> 00:34:06.359
 to

00:34:06.359 --> 00:34:06.699
 bring

00:34:06.699 --> 00:34:07.359
 relief

00:34:07.359 --> 00:34:10.480
 but

00:34:10.480 --> 00:34:10.679
 where

00:34:10.679 --> 00:34:10.980
 they

00:34:10.980 --> 00:34:11.819
 failed

00:34:11.819 --> 00:34:14.039
 Jesus

00:34:14.039 --> 00:34:15.759
 succeeds

00:34:15.759 --> 00:34:18.400
 and

00:34:18.400 --> 00:34:18.779
 again

00:34:18.779 --> 00:34:19.139
 this

00:34:19.139 --> 00:34:19.519
 is so

00:34:19.519 --> 00:34:20.079
 important

00:34:20.079 --> 00:34:21.000
 because

00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:22.719
 we

00:34:22.719 --> 00:34:23.139
 are

00:34:23.139 --> 00:34:24.019
 talking

00:34:24.019 --> 00:34:24.519
 about

00:34:24.519 --> 00:34:25.099
 our

00:34:25.099 --> 00:34:25.820
 identity

00:34:25.820 --> 00:34:26.519
 in

00:34:26.519 --> 00:34:27.139
 Christ

00:34:27.139 --> 00:34:29.500
 because

00:34:29.500 --> 00:34:29.780
 we

00:34:29.780 --> 00:34:30.460
 identified

00:34:30.460 --> 00:34:30.920
 with

00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:31.320
 him

00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:32.579
 he

00:34:32.579 --> 00:34:32.860
 with

00:34:32.860 --> 00:34:33.360
 us

00:34:33.360 --> 00:34:33.619
 in

00:34:33.619 --> 00:34:33.800
 his

00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:34.380
 baptism

00:34:34.380 --> 00:34:35.159
 he

00:34:35.159 --> 00:34:36.059
 came

00:34:36.059 --> 00:34:36.340
 and

00:34:36.340 --> 00:34:36.960
 embraced

00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:37.340
 our

00:34:37.340 --> 00:34:38.119
 brokenness

00:34:38.119 --> 00:34:38.940
 our

00:34:38.940 --> 00:34:39.559
 sin

00:34:39.559 --> 00:34:40.119
 he

00:34:40.119 --> 00:34:40.340
 was

00:34:40.340 --> 00:34:40.880
 baptized

00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:41.300
 of

00:34:41.300 --> 00:34:41.559
 saying

00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:41.980
 I'm

00:34:41.980 --> 00:34:42.219
 one

00:34:42.219 --> 00:34:42.440
 with

00:34:42.440 --> 00:34:42.739
 you

00:34:42.739 --> 00:34:43.179
 that's

00:34:43.179 --> 00:34:43.599
 mine

00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:43.980
 I'm

00:34:43.980 --> 00:34:44.119
 going

00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:44.260
 to

00:34:44.260 --> 00:34:44.639
 take

00:34:44.639 --> 00:34:45.000
 it

00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:45.559
 so

00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:45.840
 we

00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:45.960
 are

00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:46.460
 identified

00:34:46.460 --> 00:34:46.840
 with

00:34:46.840 --> 00:34:47.280
 Christ

00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:47.619
 in

00:34:47.619 --> 00:34:48.000
 that

00:34:48.000 --> 00:34:48.980
 and

00:34:48.980 --> 00:34:49.179
 then

00:34:49.179 --> 00:34:49.440
 we

00:34:49.440 --> 00:34:49.780
 also

00:34:49.780 --> 00:34:50.340
 saw

00:34:50.340 --> 00:34:50.820
 that

00:34:50.820 --> 00:34:50.980
 as

00:34:50.980 --> 00:34:51.099
 he

00:34:51.099 --> 00:34:51.440

 we're

 identity

00:35:13.579 --> 00:35:17.400
 and

00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:17.639
 now

00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:18.179
 here

00:35:18.179 --> 00:35:19.119
 in

00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:19.299

00:35:19.299 --> 00:35:19.699
 wilderness

00:35:19.699 --> 00:35:21.639
 it's

00:35:21.639 --> 00:35:21.819
 the

00:35:21.819 --> 00:35:22.099
 same

00:35:22.099 --> 00:35:22.460
 thing

00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:29.639
 I

00:35:29.639 --> 00:35:29.819

00:35:29.819 --> 00:35:30.380
 too

00:35:30.380 --> 00:35:31.819
 because

00:35:37.579 --> 00:35:37.719
 know

00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:38.019
 if it's

00:35:38.019 --> 00:35:38.480

00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:44.480
 I

00:35:44.480 --> 00:35:44.679
 wouldn't

00:35:44.679 --> 00:35:44.960
 have a

 of

00:35:45.659 --> 00:35:45.820
 being

00:35:46.260 --> 00:35:48.239
 because

00:35:48.239 --> 00:35:48.500
 far

00:35:48.500 --> 00:35:48.719
 too

00:35:48.719 --> 00:35:49.079
 often

00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:49.679
 my

00:35:49.679 --> 00:35:50.000
 hope

 son

00:35:52.539 --> 00:35:53.239
 in

00:35:53.239 --> 00:35:53.519
 whom

00:35:53.519 --> 00:35:53.780
 his

00:35:53.780 --> 00:35:54.199
 father

00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:54.840
 delights

 a

00:35:55.099 --> 00:35:55.480
 son

00:35:55.480 --> 00:35:56.099
 in

00:35:56.099 --> 00:35:56.420
 whom

00:35:56.420 --> 00:35:56.659
 the

00:35:56.659 --> 00:35:57.019
 father

00:35:57.019 --> 00:35:57.280
 is

00:35:57.280 --> 00:35:57.579
 well

00:35:57.579 --> 00:35:58.300
 pleased

00:35:58.300 --> 00:35:59.340
 I

00:35:59.340 --> 00:36:00.119
 base

00:36:00.119 --> 00:36:00.699
 so

00:36:00.699 --> 00:36:01.480
 much

00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:01.739
 of

00:36:01.739 --> 00:36:02.000
 that

00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:02.500
 hope

00:36:02.500 --> 00:36:02.800
 on

00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:03.099
 how

00:36:03.099 --> 00:36:03.460
 I

00:36:03.460 --> 00:36:04.079
 perform

00:36:04.079 --> 00:36:04.480
 in

00:36:04.480 --> 00:36:04.719
 my

00:36:04.719 --> 00:36:05.320
 faith

00:36:05.320 --> 00:36:10.340
 and

00:36:10.340 --> 00:36:10.460
 if

00:36:10.460 --> 00:36:10.700
 that's

00:36:10.700 --> 00:36:10.800
 what

00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:11.000
 it's

00:36:11.000 --> 00:36:11.280
 based

00:36:11.280 --> 00:36:11.620
 on

00:36:11.620 --> 00:36:14.000
 I

00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:14.160
 have

00:36:14.160 --> 00:36:14.260
 a

00:36:14.260 --> 00:36:14.340
 little

00:36:14.340 --> 00:36:14.640
 hope

00:36:14.640 --> 00:36:15.780
 and

00:36:15.780 --> 00:36:15.880
 I

00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:16.000
 bet

00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:16.140
 you

00:36:16.140 --> 00:36:16.280
 do

00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:16.519
 too

00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:19.620
 but

00:36:19.620 --> 00:36:19.900
 that's

00:36:19.900 --> 00:36:20.080
 not

00:36:20.080 --> 00:36:20.240
 where

00:36:20.240 --> 00:36:20.360
 our

00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:20.539
 hope

00:36:20.539 --> 00:36:20.920
 is

00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:23.220
 because

00:36:23.220 --> 00:36:23.740
 Jesus

00:36:23.740 --> 00:36:24.900
 succeeded

00:36:24.900 --> 00:36:26.420
 Jesus

00:36:26.420 --> 00:36:27.720
 won

00:36:27.720 --> 00:36:28.140
 the

00:36:28.140 --> 00:36:28.680
 battle

00:36:28.680 --> 00:36:33.460
 this

00:36:33.460 --> 00:36:34.160
 is

00:36:34.160 --> 00:36:34.960
 what

00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:35.940
 Christ

00:36:35.940 --> 00:36:36.820
 does

00:36:36.820 --> 00:36:37.599
 for

00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:37.960
 me

00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:42.159
 I

00:36:42.159 --> 00:36:42.360
 am

00:36:42.360 --> 00:36:42.659
 in

00:36:42.659 --> 00:36:43.179
 Christ

00:36:43.179 --> 00:36:45.500
 my

00:36:45.500 --> 00:36:45.880
 sin

00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:46.059
 was

00:36:46.059 --> 00:36:46.539
 taken

00:36:46.539 --> 00:36:46.900
 in

00:36:46.900 --> 00:36:47.380
 Christ

00:36:47.380 --> 00:36:48.960
 I

00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:49.099
 am

00:36:49.099 --> 00:36:49.500
 declared

00:36:49.500 --> 00:36:49.780
 the

00:36:49.780 --> 00:36:50.220
 son

00:36:50.220 --> 00:36:50.780
 in

00:36:50.780 --> 00:36:51.320
 Christ

00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:52.599
 and

00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:52.820
 now

00:36:52.820 --> 00:36:53.039
 I

00:36:53.039 --> 00:36:53.320
 have

00:36:53.320 --> 00:36:54.000
 victory

00:36:54.000 --> 00:36:55.179
 in

00:36:55.179 --> 00:36:56.460
 Christ

00:36:56.460 --> 00:36:59.559
 he

00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:00.920
 wins

00:37:00.920 --> 00:37:01.420
 the

00:37:01.420 --> 00:37:01.880
 battle

00:37:01.880 --> 00:37:03.000
 and

00:37:03.000 --> 00:37:03.340
 I'm

00:37:03.340 --> 00:37:03.579
 there

00:37:03.579 --> 00:37:03.840
 in

00:37:03.840 --> 00:37:04.280
 him

00:37:04.280 --> 00:37:05.580
 and

00:37:05.580 --> 00:37:05.780
 when

00:37:05.780 --> 00:37:05.960
 he

00:37:05.960 --> 00:37:06.420
 wins

00:37:06.420 --> 00:37:07.180
 I

00:37:07.180 --> 00:37:07.700
 win

00:37:07.700 --> 00:37:09.860
 and

00:37:09.860 --> 00:37:10.480
 now

00:37:10.480 --> 00:37:11.780
 in

00:37:11.780 --> 00:37:12.480
 Christ

00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:15.460
 I

00:37:15.460 --> 00:37:15.720
 can

00:37:15.720 --> 00:37:16.260
 say

00:37:16.260 --> 00:37:18.340
 even

00:37:18.340 --> 00:37:18.620
 though

00:37:18.620 --> 00:37:19.260
 in this

00:37:19.260 --> 00:37:19.720
 wilderness

00:37:19.720 --> 00:37:20.660
 my

00:37:20.660 --> 00:37:21.200
 performance

00:37:21.200 --> 00:37:21.780
 is

00:37:21.780 --> 00:37:22.380
 much

00:37:22.380 --> 00:37:22.700
 to be

00:37:22.700 --> 00:37:23.100
 desired

00:37:23.100 --> 00:37:26.140
 I

00:37:26.140 --> 00:37:26.560
 win

00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:29.920
 I

00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:30.460
 win

00:37:30.460 --> 00:37:31.019
 I

00:37:31.019 --> 00:37:31.400
 win

00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:35.279
 now

00:37:35.279 --> 00:37:36.079
 is

00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:36.219
 this

00:37:36.219 --> 00:37:36.440
 going

00:37:36.440 --> 00:37:36.639
 to

00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:37.099
 encourage

00:37:37.099 --> 00:37:37.639
 us

00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:39.400
 to

00:37:39.400 --> 00:37:39.820
 say

00:37:39.820 --> 00:37:41.079
 well

00:37:41.079 --> 00:37:42.860
 that's

00:37:42.860 --> 00:37:43.199
 the case

00:37:43.199 --> 00:37:43.539
 I can

00:37:43.539 --> 00:37:43.739
 just

00:37:43.739 --> 00:37:44.059
 run

00:37:44.059 --> 00:37:44.299
 off

00:37:44.299 --> 00:37:44.500
 and

00:37:44.500 --> 00:37:45.059
 do

00:37:45.059 --> 00:37:45.360
 whatever

00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:45.579
 I

00:37:45.579 --> 00:37:46.019
 want

00:37:46.019 --> 00:37:46.860
 whatever

00:37:46.860 --> 00:37:47.099
 I

00:37:47.099 --> 00:37:47.279
 want

00:37:47.279 --> 00:37:47.380
 to

00:37:47.380 --> 00:37:47.639
 do

00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:47.880
 I

00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:48.059
 don't

00:37:48.059 --> 00:37:48.279
 have

00:37:48.279 --> 00:37:48.539
 to

00:37:48.539 --> 00:37:49.779
 obey

00:37:49.779 --> 00:37:50.239
 because

00:37:50.239 --> 00:37:50.519
 I'm

00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:50.639
 in

00:37:50.639 --> 00:37:51.019
 Christ

00:37:51.019 --> 00:37:51.299
 he's

00:37:51.299 --> 00:37:51.559
 already

00:37:51.559 --> 00:37:51.940
 won

00:37:51.940 --> 00:37:52.700
 it's

00:37:52.700 --> 00:37:53.139
 okay

00:37:53.139 --> 00:37:56.360
 I

00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:57.220
 don't

00:37:57.220 --> 00:37:57.920
 think

00:37:57.920 --> 00:37:59.659
 that's

00:37:59.659 --> 00:38:00.099
 where we're

00:38:00.099 --> 00:38:00.280
 going to

00:38:00.280 --> 00:38:00.539
 go

00:38:00.539 --> 00:38:02.519
 because

00:38:02.519 --> 00:38:03.000
 of this

00:38:03.000 --> 00:38:05.139
 I

00:38:05.139 --> 00:38:05.380
 used

00:38:05.380 --> 00:38:05.700
 to

00:38:05.700 --> 00:38:06.500
 have

00:38:06.500 --> 00:38:07.019
 a dog

00:38:07.019 --> 00:38:08.720
 that I

00:38:08.720 --> 00:38:09.220
 used

00:38:09.220 --> 00:38:09.460
 to

00:38:09.460 --> 00:38:09.840
 is the

00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:11.139
 key word

00:38:11.139 --> 00:38:11.360
 here

00:38:11.360 --> 00:38:12.820
 that I

00:38:12.820 --> 00:38:13.179
 really

00:38:13.179 --> 00:38:13.639
 struggled

00:38:13.639 --> 00:38:14.099
 with

00:38:14.099 --> 00:38:16.079
 and what

00:38:16.079 --> 00:38:16.460
 I'm about

00:38:16.460 --> 00:38:16.900
 to say

00:38:16.900 --> 00:38:17.400
 is probably

00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:18.159
 going to

00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:19.559
 make all

00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:20.019
 you pet

00:38:20.019 --> 00:38:20.380

00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:21.160
 angry

00:38:21.160 --> 00:38:21.420
 with

00:38:21.420 --> 00:38:21.740
 me

00:38:21.740 --> 00:38:23.260
 but

00:38:23.260 --> 00:38:24.480
 I

00:38:24.480 --> 00:38:24.660
 have

00:38:24.660 --> 00:38:25.140
 improved

00:38:25.140 --> 00:38:25.340
 I

00:38:25.340 --> 00:38:25.519
 have

00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:26.119
 changed

00:38:26.119 --> 00:38:27.460
 I

00:38:27.460 --> 00:38:27.599
 don't

00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:27.780
 have

00:38:27.780 --> 00:38:27.920
 a

00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:28.099
 pet

00:38:28.099 --> 00:38:28.460
 anymore

00:38:28.460 --> 00:38:31.700
 well

00:38:31.700 --> 00:38:31.880
 this

00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:32.240
 dog

00:38:32.240 --> 00:38:32.500
 that we

00:38:32.500 --> 00:38:32.900
 had

00:38:32.900 --> 00:38:33.720
 was not

00:38:33.720 --> 00:38:34.180
 the most

00:38:34.180 --> 00:38:34.720
 obedient

00:38:34.720 --> 00:38:35.619
 and part

00:38:35.619 --> 00:38:35.860
 of the

00:38:35.860 --> 00:38:36.119
 reason

00:38:36.119 --> 00:38:36.640
 was I

00:38:36.640 --> 00:38:36.960
 didn't

00:38:36.960 --> 00:38:37.300
 train

00:38:37.300 --> 00:38:37.519
 him

00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:37.900
 very

00:38:37.900 --> 00:38:38.200
 well

00:38:38.200 --> 00:38:38.380
 though

00:38:38.380 --> 00:38:38.539
 I

00:38:38.539 --> 00:38:38.760
 don't

00:38:38.760 --> 00:38:39.019
 think

00:38:39.019 --> 00:38:39.240
 this

00:38:39.240 --> 00:38:39.579
 dog

00:38:39.579 --> 00:38:39.760

00:38:41.940 --> 00:38:42.380
 trained

00:38:42.380 --> 00:38:43.539
 but

00:38:43.539 --> 00:38:43.640
 he

00:38:43.640 --> 00:38:43.800
 would

00:38:43.800 --> 00:38:44.019
 get

00:38:44.019 --> 00:38:44.300
 out

00:38:46.920 --> 00:38:47.320
 sometimes

00:40:03.539 --> 00:40:04.360
 does

00:40:04.360 --> 00:40:05.519
 if

00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:05.720
 we

00:40:05.720 --> 00:40:06.240
 think

00:40:06.240 --> 00:40:07.660
 that

00:40:07.659 --> 00:40:07.960
 God

00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:08.139
 is

00:40:08.139 --> 00:40:08.440
 not

00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:09.000
 pleased

00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:10.239
 and

00:40:10.239 --> 00:40:10.359
 that

00:40:10.359 --> 00:40:10.500
 if

00:40:10.500 --> 00:40:10.659
 we

00:40:10.659 --> 00:40:11.159
 fail

00:40:11.159 --> 00:40:11.500
 he's

00:40:11.500 --> 00:40:11.679
 just

00:40:11.679 --> 00:40:11.839
 going

00:40:11.839 --> 00:40:11.960
 to

00:40:11.960 --> 00:40:12.359
 whack

00:40:12.359 --> 00:40:12.579
 us

00:40:12.579 --> 00:40:13.119
 around

00:40:13.119 --> 00:40:14.739
 to

00:40:14.739 --> 00:40:15.339
 beat

00:40:15.339 --> 00:40:15.559
 some

00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:15.940
 sense

00:40:15.940 --> 00:40:16.239
 into

00:40:16.239 --> 00:40:16.679
 us

00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:18.480
 but

00:40:18.480 --> 00:40:18.659
 too

00:40:18.659 --> 00:40:18.920
 often

00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:19.219
 that's

00:40:19.219 --> 00:40:19.379
 what

00:40:19.379 --> 00:40:19.539
 we

00:40:19.539 --> 00:40:19.799
 think

00:40:19.799 --> 00:40:19.960
 he

00:40:19.960 --> 00:40:20.460
 is

00:40:20.460 --> 00:40:21.339
 we

00:40:21.339 --> 00:40:21.940
 forget

00:40:21.940 --> 00:40:22.199
 the

00:40:22.199 --> 00:40:22.440
 fact

00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:22.599
 that

00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:22.779
 we're

00:40:22.779 --> 00:40:23.579
 sons

00:40:23.579 --> 00:40:25.119
 beloved

00:40:25.119 --> 00:40:26.039
 sons

00:40:26.039 --> 00:40:27.699
 in

00:40:27.699 --> 00:40:27.879
 whom

00:40:27.879 --> 00:40:28.019
 he

00:40:28.019 --> 00:40:28.199
 is

00:40:28.199 --> 00:40:29.059
 pleased

00:40:29.059 --> 00:40:33.719
 and

00:40:33.719 --> 00:40:33.859
 so

00:40:33.859 --> 00:40:34.079
 now

00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:34.299
 the

00:40:34.299 --> 00:40:34.839
 father

00:40:34.840 --> 00:40:39.600

00:40:39.600 --> 00:40:39.960
 simply

00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:40.720
 gets

00:40:40.720 --> 00:40:41.220
 down

00:40:41.220 --> 00:40:42.280
 and

00:40:42.280 --> 00:40:42.700
 stretches

00:40:42.700 --> 00:40:42.940
 out

00:40:42.940 --> 00:40:43.120
