00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:06.160
 The scripture reading comes from Philemon. Please follow along in your bulletin or on the screen.

00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:11.740
 Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy, our brother.

00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:21.280
 To Philemon, our beloved fellow worker, and Aphia, our sister, and Archippus, our fellow soldier, and the church in your house.

00:00:22.300 --> 00:00:27.420
 Grace to you and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:00:27.420 --> 00:00:40.060
 I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers, because I hear of your love and of the faith that you have toward the Lord Jesus and for all the saints.

00:00:40.700 --> 00:00:49.560
 And I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective for the full knowledge of every good thing that is in us for the sake of Christ.

00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:59.560
 For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you.

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:10.960
 Accordingly, though I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do what is required, yet, for love's sake, I prefer to appeal to you.

00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:23.799
 I, Paul, an old man, and now a prisoner, also for Christ Jesus, I appeal to you for my child, Onesimus, whose father I became in my imprisonment.

00:01:24.739 --> 00:01:30.939
 Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me.

00:01:30.939 --> 00:01:36.140
 I am sending him back to you, sending my very heart.

00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:44.659
 I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel.

00:01:45.579 --> 00:01:53.879
 But I prefer to do nothing without your consent, in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion, but of your own accord.

00:01:53.879 --> 00:02:09.659
 For this, perhaps, is why he was parted from you for a while, that you might have him back forever, no longer as a bondservant, but more than a bondservant, as a beloved brother, especially to me.

00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.960
 But how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:21.280
 So if you consider me your partner, receive him as you would receive me.

00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:27.780
 If he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, charge that to my account.

00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:32.180
 I, Paul, write this with my own hand.

00:02:32.920 --> 00:02:38.139
 I will repay it, to say nothing of your only me, even your own self.

00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:42.840
 Yes, brother, I want some benefit from you and the Lord.

00:02:43.580 --> 00:02:45.340
 Refresh my heart in Christ.

00:02:46.539 --> 00:02:49.420
 Confident of your obedience, I write to you,

00:02:49.419 --> 00:02:52.419
 knowing that you will do even more than I say.

00:02:53.379 --> 00:02:56.619
 At the same time, prepare a guest room for me,

00:02:57.079 --> 00:03:01.759
 for I am hoping that, through your prayers, I will be graciously given to you.

00:03:03.119 --> 00:03:07.199
 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends greetings to you.

00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:12.339
 And so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.

00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:16.199
 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:17.839
 This is the word of God.

00:03:19.419 --> 00:03:23.659
 Great, thanks, Joanne and Annabelle, reading the entire book of the Bible in one sitting.

00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:24.459
 There we go.

00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:30.899
 Paul, do you want to come on up and let me introduce Paul to us.

00:03:30.979 --> 00:03:33.379
 Paul is going to be bringing God's word to us this morning, preaching.

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.359
 And Chris actually is the one that introduced us to Paul.

00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:38.500
 And Chris has preached.

00:03:38.899 --> 00:03:42.399
 So Paul is a pastor at Holy Light Church in Yuen Long.

00:03:42.519 --> 00:03:43.060
 Is that right?

00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:43.319
 Yes.

00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:48.599
 And I don't actually know how you guys met about a year ago or so.

00:03:49.419 --> 00:03:50.079
 Two years.

00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:50.560
 Two years ago?

00:03:50.620 --> 00:03:50.759
 Okay.

00:03:50.819 --> 00:03:50.959
 Yeah.

00:03:51.459 --> 00:03:54.719
 And I know Chris has come and preached at your church once or twice.

00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:59.259
 And the first time he came back, he said, you've got to meet this guy, Paul.

00:03:59.379 --> 00:04:01.419
 He's an amazing gospel man.

00:04:02.259 --> 00:04:06.240
 So humble and yet really sure of God's love and the gospel.

00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:08.259
 And Chris just spoke so highly of you.

00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:13.780
 And Paul came to our staff meeting probably a year ago, a little bit less, and spoke to our staff.

00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:14.099
 Yes.

00:04:14.359 --> 00:04:21.339
 And back then, we decided on this date, almost nine months ago, we decided, okay, February 2020, come and bring God's word.

00:04:21.860 --> 00:04:26.339
 And then we've actually seen each other twice this week, on Tuesday night and on Thursday afternoon.

00:04:26.539 --> 00:04:26.779
 Yes.

00:04:27.019 --> 00:04:28.959
 And Paul, it's really great to have you.

00:04:29.039 --> 00:04:31.959
 We're so grateful for you coming down this morning and being with us.

00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:33.680
 So thank you for bringing God's word.

00:04:33.939 --> 00:04:34.819
 Thank you for your all.

00:04:34.819 --> 00:04:35.500
 And we're so thrilled that you're with us.

00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:36.139
 Thank you.

00:04:36.139 --> 00:04:38.300
 Can I pray for you and just for us this morning?

00:04:38.659 --> 00:04:38.899
 Yes.

00:04:38.899 --> 00:04:39.079
 Great.

00:04:39.219 --> 00:04:40.159
 Let's pray briefly.

00:04:40.860 --> 00:04:44.979
 Lord Jesus, thank you so much for Paul, for his life and his ministry.

00:04:45.139 --> 00:04:49.639
 Thank you for his devotion to you, God, how you saved him as a young man, God.

00:04:50.479 --> 00:04:55.459
 And you've called him to help others discover the hope of Jesus in the gospel.

00:04:56.180 --> 00:05:00.219
 Lord, I pray that as he brings your word to us this morning, that you will anoint him and empower him.

00:05:00.459 --> 00:05:04.500
 I pray, God, that it won't just be his words, but it'll be you speaking through him.

00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:06.039
 We want to hear from you this morning.

00:05:06.139 --> 00:05:07.560
 We want to encounter you in your word.

00:05:08.659 --> 00:05:09.459
 And so we pray for him.

00:05:09.539 --> 00:05:11.800
 We pray for his church, for Holy Life Church, God.

00:05:13.719 --> 00:05:16.740
 Fill us and fill him and fill them with your spirit, we pray.

00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:18.879
 We pray these things in your wonderful name.

00:05:19.339 --> 00:05:19.579
 Amen.

00:05:20.819 --> 00:05:21.219
 Amen.

00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:22.120
 Paul, over to you.

00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:23.019
 Thank you.

00:05:23.019 --> 00:05:23.040
 Thank you.

00:05:24.540 --> 00:05:26.139
 Thank you for Kelvin's.

00:05:27.220 --> 00:05:32.500
 Actually, I'm humble because I know I'm not good.

00:05:32.840 --> 00:05:40.639
 I have nothing to be proud of, so I have to be humble because I'm not very strong or anything.

00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:43.659
 Let me introduce myself.

00:05:43.659 --> 00:05:47.379
 I come from a local family and local church.

00:05:48.019 --> 00:05:52.399
 And my father is just a construction site worker, painter.

00:05:52.779 --> 00:05:58.199
 And my mother worked in a factory as a plastic toy worker.

00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.019
 So I'm born in a very poor house.

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:02.759
 I'm born in a broken house.

00:06:04.379 --> 00:06:07.500
 My grandfather was a drug addict.

00:06:08.060 --> 00:06:09.920
 And also my uncle was a drug addict.

00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.099
 And the gospel comes through my grandmother.

00:06:13.100 --> 00:06:19.580
 My father, she led my uncle to believe in Jesus and quit drug taking.

00:06:20.340 --> 00:06:25.900
 And after a while, my cousin was also become a drug addict.

00:06:26.400 --> 00:06:31.960
 And God saved me and I bring the gospel to my brother and he quit taking drugs.

00:06:32.379 --> 00:06:34.680
 So I come from a very broken family.

00:06:34.860 --> 00:06:37.100
 I have nothing to be proud of.

00:06:37.200 --> 00:06:40.879
 But it is all the grace of God who saved our family.

00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:45.480
 And I'm not very academic people.

00:06:45.719 --> 00:06:52.860
 So I'm not very good at theology or any exegesis, something like that.

00:06:53.180 --> 00:06:56.060
 I used to minister serving in prison.

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:59.300
 I've been serving in the prison for 11 years.

00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.420
 And I still keep going to the prison.

00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:07.199
 So I used to talk to people face by face individually.

00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:11.000
 So actually, that's why I ask all of you to pray for me.

00:07:11.139 --> 00:07:14.319
 Because I'm not used to preach to a bunch of people.

00:07:14.599 --> 00:07:15.579
 It would make me nervous.

00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:20.579
 And especially, I'm a local Hong Konger.

00:07:21.039 --> 00:07:23.500
 So my mother tongue was Cantonese.

00:07:23.860 --> 00:07:26.099
 It is the third time I preach in English.

00:07:26.300 --> 00:07:27.379
 So I'm so nervous.

00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:28.879
 So please pray for me.

00:07:29.560 --> 00:07:31.279
 And thank you.

00:07:31.279 --> 00:08:01.259
 Thank you.

00:08:01.819 --> 00:08:02.039
 All right.

00:08:02.099 --> 00:08:02.739
 I'll send you one.

00:08:03.979 --> 00:08:05.099
 Make yourself at home.

00:08:05.259 --> 00:08:05.339
 Okay.

00:08:05.359 --> 00:08:05.659
 All right.

00:08:05.719 --> 00:08:06.099
 Thank you.

00:08:06.099 --> 00:08:06.419
 Sorry about that.

00:08:08.099 --> 00:08:08.699
 Hello.

00:08:08.799 --> 00:08:08.979
 Hello.

00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:09.459
 It's okay.

00:08:10.219 --> 00:08:13.419
 So that's why I used the scripture today.

00:08:13.719 --> 00:08:21.399
 I will try to use some life story I met in the prison, as well as some story in our family.

00:08:21.539 --> 00:08:25.539
 Try to demonstrate how the gospel changed people.

00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:29.539
 And not just individually, but in a community.

00:08:29.540 --> 00:08:38.980
 So did you ever ask a question like, why you are brought to this world?

00:08:39.820 --> 00:08:41.620
 What is the meaning of life?

00:08:41.620 --> 00:08:47.679
 Especially when you are suffering, being despised, neglected, or left alone?

00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:52.379
 Actually, I tell you, I asked this question when I was three years old.

00:08:52.379 --> 00:08:57.700
 I told you, my father is a painter.

00:08:58.200 --> 00:08:59.919
 My mother is a factory worker.

00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:04.480
 So in my memory, I was brought up by my grandmother.

00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:08.899
 My parents didn't work a whole day.

00:09:09.379 --> 00:09:14.440
 And after they come back home, they eat their dinner, and then they will sleep.

00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:18.360
 And very early in the morning, they will go out to work again.

00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:24.019
 So I have very little time to meet with my parents.

00:09:24.820 --> 00:09:33.580
 And, you know, when you're kissed, you would like your parents to hug you, to be with you.

00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:37.440
 I may try to ask them, come, play with me.

00:09:37.580 --> 00:09:39.759
 Come, spend some time with me.

00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:43.340
 But they would say, I'm so tired.

00:09:43.580 --> 00:09:44.620
 Go away, go away.

00:09:44.899 --> 00:09:45.860
 Find your grandmom.

00:09:46.539 --> 00:09:52.700
 And if I, you know, I'm naughty, they may even beat me.

00:09:53.200 --> 00:10:01.340
 So that's why I will, in the year of three, I ask myself, if you don't love me, why did you bring me to this world?

00:10:02.259 --> 00:10:05.080
 Today, we also talk about a slave.

00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:12.800
 I think this slave, he may probably ask this question a thousand times in his life.

00:10:13.580 --> 00:10:14.920
 Why am I a slave?

00:10:15.860 --> 00:10:17.660
 What is the meaning of my life?

00:10:18.340 --> 00:10:20.400
 Was it a mistake I came to this world?

00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:29.660
 Actually, I heard this question a lot in prison, especially some prisoners who come from Africa.

00:10:29.980 --> 00:10:33.960
 They were cheated to bring some drug to Hong Kong.

00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:41.480
 And the people who cheated him said, oh, it's very, it's no big deal to bring drugs to Hong Kong.

00:10:41.740 --> 00:10:43.160
 The penalty is very small.

00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:47.320
 You just need to stay a few months in Hong Kong and then you come back.

00:10:48.220 --> 00:10:58.500
 But after they were arrested in Hong Kong, they find the penalties several decades, two decades or several years in Hong Kong.

00:10:59.019 --> 00:11:00.480
 They were collapsed.

00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:03.920
 They just wanted to earn a few money for their family.

00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:10.460
 So they worry about their family and they ask about what is the meaning of life?

00:11:10.800 --> 00:11:14.600
 Why this happened to me?

00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:26.620
 And we don't know the reason, but this slave, Omnissimus, left his master, probably stolen some money when he left.

00:11:27.139 --> 00:11:31.680
 And eventually, he went to Rome, arrived Rome.

00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:34.000
 In there, he met Paul.

00:11:34.379 --> 00:11:36.820
 And in there, he heard the gospel.

00:11:36.820 --> 00:11:40.879
 And in there, the gospel transformed his whole life.

00:11:41.460 --> 00:11:55.860
 I met some people from overseas, from Africa, from South America, from Vietnam, from Southeast Asia or India, Southern Asia.

00:11:55.860 --> 00:12:07.659
 They said they have heard about Jesus, but they don't think Jesus did matter to him until he was in prison.

00:12:07.659 --> 00:12:16.059
 And when he asked the meaning of life, and when they heard about the gospel, their life was transformed.

00:12:16.819 --> 00:12:21.120
 And some even said their sentence was very short, just a few months.

00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:26.419
 And some said, oh, this few months sentence for me is not a curse, a blessing.

00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:30.340
 Because, not because of this, my life will never change.

00:12:30.679 --> 00:12:35.759
 I will still living in a lie, living under illusion.

00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:39.000
 I'm chasing something that is not worthy.

00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:42.299
 But because of Christ, my life was changed.

00:12:43.179 --> 00:12:48.500
 And also, Omnissimus, when he arrived in Rome, he met Paul.

00:12:48.500 --> 00:12:52.779
 He heard the gospel, and the gospel transformed his life.

00:12:54.740 --> 00:12:59.220
 Omnissimus, his name means profitable or good to you.

00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.379
 But to him, he may not think so.

00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:11.659
 Maybe he was someone's assets, which means profitable to his master, because at least he worth some money.

00:13:11.659 --> 00:13:19.899
 But to himself, he might think his life was worthless, meaningless, or even a burden.

00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:30.879
 What was the point doing all the housework, but you never know when will you have your own family or your own house?

00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:36.679
 I think the youngster in Hong Kong may probably understand this feeling.

00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:39.559
 Why should I study so hard?

00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:42.200
 Why should I get into the university?

00:13:43.580 --> 00:13:52.740
 How many years I need to work and didn't spend a penny in order to save enough money to get an apartment?

00:13:53.299 --> 00:13:56.240
 What's the point to working so hard?

00:13:56.299 --> 00:13:57.659
 What is the meaning of life?

00:13:57.659 --> 00:14:06.439
 And I think Omnissimus might be thinking about why I have this fate.

00:14:07.659 --> 00:14:10.639
 So he ran away from his master.

00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:18.039
 Maybe his living from his master was to find freedom or to start a new life.

00:14:18.620 --> 00:14:21.339
 But what future could happen to a fugitive?

00:14:21.340 --> 00:14:29.960
 I did meet some prisoner who has been a fugitive running away to mainland China.

00:14:30.560 --> 00:14:35.680
 He stayed several years in mainland China until all his money was spent.

00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:39.720
 And after that, he turned himself in back to Hong Kong.

00:14:40.100 --> 00:14:41.519
 And I met him in Lai Chi Kho.

00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:52.439
 And he said to me, even though I have money, even though I feel secure in mainland China, but I have no peace.

00:14:53.059 --> 00:14:58.199
 Every night I was afraid someone would break in and take me to the police.

00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:10.520
 Or even someone I get against, probably some gangster from the opposite side, may come to take me and beat me.

00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:16.879
 So even though he has a lot of money, he was worried about many, many things.

00:15:16.939 --> 00:15:30.340
 Until he came to Hong Kong and turned himself in and he took up his responsibility to confess his sin or his guilty, he finally relieved.

00:15:30.340 --> 00:15:40.519
 He said he finally can shake off the guilt and the worry he used to have in mainland China.

00:15:41.259 --> 00:15:49.879
 So we don't know whether Onesimus knew Paul was in Rome, but eventually he met Paul there.

00:15:50.620 --> 00:15:58.379
 From Paul, Onesimus heard that the problem of his life as well as this world were the consequences of our sin.

00:15:58.379 --> 00:16:05.740
 Actually, it is sin who divides us or separates us from God.

00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:15.799
 And the consequences, we're not only separated from God, we're also, we're called alienated or separated from ourselves.

00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:17.860
 We don't know who we are.

00:16:18.379 --> 00:16:19.980
 We don't know our true identity.

00:16:20.620 --> 00:16:25.639
 We rely on many, many other things to define am I a worthy people.

00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:31.639
 For example, I listen to a lot of gangsters in youth institutions.

00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:35.340
 He was very young, just 16 years old.

00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:38.720
 But he just have a grade 9 education.

00:16:39.340 --> 00:16:49.100
 And he said to me, if I have money, if I can earn enough money to have a company or have a shop, I will be somebody.

00:16:49.100 --> 00:16:54.480
 So he tried to do some drug trafficking.

00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:59.379
 And you know, drug trafficking is really, really very profitable in Hong Kong.

00:16:59.379 --> 00:17:08.299
 He said to me, one month he can earn 200,000 by drug trafficking.

00:17:08.700 --> 00:17:15.220
 So he just want to do one year and earn several million dollars and then he can set up a company.

00:17:15.700 --> 00:17:19.799
 And then he can no longer deal with drugs and he will be somebody.

00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:21.919
 So that's the problem.

00:17:23.180 --> 00:17:30.000
 We all define our value, our identity with something outside ourselves, something outside God.

00:17:30.539 --> 00:17:31.899
 So that's the problem.

00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:33.399
 We create a lot of problem.

00:17:33.980 --> 00:17:40.220
 We just care about ourselves and didn't care about other people's well-being.

00:17:40.220 --> 00:17:45.220
 So, and also the sin also bring other consequences.

00:17:45.819 --> 00:17:49.500
 We don't know how to treat the nature properly.

00:17:50.059 --> 00:17:57.940
 We don't know how to enjoy but not exploit the nature, the natural resources.

00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:04.200
 So we see a lot of pollution, a lot of environmental problem.

00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:06.360
 It's all the consequences of sin.

00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:12.899
 After that, after Omnissimus knows that the problem is our sin.

00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:24.339
 And not only that, he heard from Paul that the creator of this world has become flesh and died for our sin, who is Jesus.

00:18:24.879 --> 00:18:26.759
 He died instead of us.

00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:32.359
 He substituted us to bear the price of sin on the cross.

00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:37.500
 By receiving Jesus, Omnissimus received a new identity.

00:18:38.179 --> 00:18:39.899
 He became God's favorite son.

00:18:40.659 --> 00:18:44.699
 He was no longer belong to this world, even though he's still living in this world.

00:18:45.019 --> 00:18:52.959
 But he knew he belonged to a heavenly family, a kingdom of eternity.

00:18:52.960 --> 00:19:00.440
 So even though our life on this earth is very short, but our life story didn't end after we died.

00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:04.259
 We belong to an eternity kingdom.

00:19:05.059 --> 00:19:12.440
 So now Omnissimus knew the meaning of his life, why he was a slave.

00:19:12.980 --> 00:19:18.059
 He become an ambassador of God using his role as a slave.

00:19:18.539 --> 00:19:22.620
 He's not just a slave, but also an ambassador of God.

00:19:22.619 --> 00:19:28.139
 Now, before he's doing all the housework, he don't know what's the meaning.

00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:32.039
 But at that time, Paul was in prison in Rome.

00:19:32.459 --> 00:19:36.299
 He couldn't leave the house freely.

00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.919
 He needed to stay in the house until his case was trialed.

00:19:42.199 --> 00:19:46.099
 So he needs someone to take care of his daily life.

00:19:46.399 --> 00:19:48.299
 And he opened his house.

00:19:48.579 --> 00:19:51.500
 People can visit him and listen to the gospel.

00:19:51.500 --> 00:19:55.700
 At that moment, Omnissimus finds his purpose.

00:19:56.220 --> 00:19:57.980
 He can serve Paul.

00:19:58.660 --> 00:20:02.099
 He can participate in the mission of preaching the gospel.

00:20:02.700 --> 00:20:04.519
 His life is not useless.

00:20:05.140 --> 00:20:07.720
 His life is meaningful and useful.

00:20:08.660 --> 00:20:09.779
 I met a man.

00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:14.539
 I called him Mr. Chow several years ago.

00:20:14.539 --> 00:20:20.059
 At that time, he was 60 years old.

00:20:20.420 --> 00:20:27.480
 And he told me he was discharged from prison when he was 58 years old.

00:20:27.700 --> 00:20:28.019
 58.

00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:33.779
 He has been in prison for 17 times in all his life.

00:20:34.019 --> 00:20:35.639
 17 times in prison.

00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:39.399
 The first time he was in prison was 17 years old.

00:20:39.400 --> 00:20:40.800
 He was very young.

00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:44.200
 And because he took drugs, he was a drug addict.

00:20:44.560 --> 00:20:48.500
 So he went in and went out to prison many, many times.

00:20:48.740 --> 00:20:49.720
 17 times.

00:20:50.360 --> 00:20:53.540
 All his life is to cheat money for drugs.

00:20:53.539 --> 00:21:04.539
 And because he used needles to inject the drug, his left leg, the blood vessel of his last leg was blocked.

00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:09.139
 And so his left leg was swollen and difficult to walk.

00:21:09.899 --> 00:21:14.319
 He was so afraid his left leg would be needed to cut off.

00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:23.099
 And in his last imprisonment, he met a friend who used to take drugs with him.

00:21:23.619 --> 00:21:28.200
 But this time, his friend looked healthier and fatter than before.

00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:32.939
 So he was so curious as, what happened to you?

00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:38.700
 So his friend told him, well, I quit taking drugs by the gospel.

00:21:39.139 --> 00:21:42.659
 But this time, I was in prison because I was fighting with others.

00:21:42.660 --> 00:21:45.019
 So it doesn't matter with the drug.

00:21:46.660 --> 00:21:49.860
 So Mr. Chow was very curious.

00:21:50.060 --> 00:21:52.540
 Oh, I used to look down on this guy.

00:21:53.340 --> 00:22:00.940
 Even though we are all drug addicts, but I looked down on him because I think he's not worthy or not better than me.

00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:05.759
 But how come he can become so healthier and look better than me?

00:22:06.100 --> 00:22:08.420
 I must quit the drug also.

00:22:08.420 --> 00:22:16.259
 So after he was discharged, he immediately joined St. Stephen's Society to treat the drug.

00:22:17.120 --> 00:22:24.340
 So two years later, he kept living in St. Stephen's Society.

00:22:24.740 --> 00:22:25.900
 He quit taking drugs.

00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:31.860
 And not only he quit drugs, but also he became a volunteer.

00:22:31.859 --> 00:22:36.219
 He went to Guangzhou station.

00:22:36.419 --> 00:22:41.379
 You know, there's a back street of Guangzhou railway station.

00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:45.179
 Many drug addicts used to inject drugs in there.

00:22:45.779 --> 00:22:54.039
 He joined other volunteers to go to Guangzhou and spread the leaflet and told them about the gospel,

00:22:54.479 --> 00:22:57.339
 how you can quit taking drugs by the gospel.

00:22:57.339 --> 00:23:01.019
 He became useful.

00:23:01.959 --> 00:23:08.139
 He said he didn't think he can be useful even when he was 60 years old.

00:23:08.339 --> 00:23:09.759
 He think his life was over.

00:23:10.199 --> 00:23:10.879
 He was rubbish.

00:23:11.419 --> 00:23:14.039
 He couldn't bring any good to this world.

00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:20.079
 But by God's grace, he can bring some good to this world.

00:23:20.079 --> 00:23:26.259
 After knowing Omnissimus was escaped from his master Philemon,

00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:32.119
 Paul wrote this letter to ask Philemon to forgive and receive Omnissimus again.

00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:37.720
 Paul knew Philemon because it is Paul who brings the gospel to Philemon,

00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:41.319
 and Paul has been visiting the church in Philemon's house.

00:23:41.859 --> 00:23:44.899
 Paul and Philemon has a very close relationship.

00:23:44.900 --> 00:23:52.980
 So, Paul praised Philemon for his love and his faith towards Jesus and all the saints.

00:23:53.600 --> 00:23:59.780
 And Philemon did live out the gospel transformed life because his good doing,

00:23:59.960 --> 00:24:08.220
 his good deed was not just because the law requests me to do or because other people expect me to do so,

00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:09.700
 so I do the good thing.

00:24:09.700 --> 00:24:18.380
 No, he do all the good thing because it is all out of the love and faith of him towards Jesus.

00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:22.019
 Paul also quoted other saints' testimony.

00:24:23.140 --> 00:24:23.559
 Paul said,

00:24:23.799 --> 00:24:29.779
 Philemon, many people report to me, you had refreshed their heart.

00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:32.680
 So, Paul appealed to Philemon.

00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:42.440
 Paul warned Philemon to keep showing his kindness, especially to an old man and a prisoner for Christ, which is Paul.

00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:46.200
 Paul appealed to Philemon for his child Omnissimus.

00:24:46.740 --> 00:24:50.940
 He warned Philemon could forgive and receive Omnissimus.

00:24:52.220 --> 00:24:58.420
 True forgiveness and acceptance cannot be requested by compulsion or by force.

00:24:58.420 --> 00:25:02.440
 Because this must come from a willing heart.

00:25:02.860 --> 00:25:06.900
 And it also means willing to give up the right to revenge.

00:25:09.800 --> 00:25:16.080
 I think it's very hard for us to ask for forgiveness.

00:25:16.900 --> 00:25:21.740
 And I also think it's very hard to forgive someone truly hurt you.

00:25:21.740 --> 00:25:28.059
 Without the grace of God, I don't think it would be possible.

00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:39.140
 Mr. Chow, the 60-year-old brother I mentioned, he told me one day he prayed to God.

00:25:39.779 --> 00:25:40.220
 He said,

00:25:40.220 --> 00:25:44.500
 God, I have brought a lot of hurt to my family.

00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:49.019
 My father, my sister, moved to other places.

00:25:49.460 --> 00:25:53.160
 They changed their telephone number because they want to avoid me.

00:25:53.460 --> 00:25:57.400
 I cheat them a lot and I let them disappoint a lot.

00:25:58.180 --> 00:26:03.640
 And my wife and daughter, she has a wife when he was very young.

00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:08.579
 And his wife gave birth a daughter for him.

00:26:08.579 --> 00:26:12.859
 But also, his wife, his daughter forsake him.

00:26:13.699 --> 00:26:14.279
 And he said,

00:26:14.639 --> 00:26:16.299
 And I couldn't contact them.

00:26:16.359 --> 00:26:17.799
 I don't have their telephone number.

00:26:18.339 --> 00:26:24.859
 And I am also too ashamed to try to search them by myself.

00:26:25.220 --> 00:26:26.299
 Please help me.

00:26:27.639 --> 00:26:30.659
 So after this prayer, a few days,

00:26:31.919 --> 00:26:35.359
 he joined a volunteer activity of his church.

00:26:35.359 --> 00:26:42.559
 He helped to clean an elder person's home in Chinhwan.

00:26:43.219 --> 00:26:46.159
 He arrived early in Chinhwan MTR station.

00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:48.019
 So arriving in the MTR station,

00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:51.819
 he checked his mobile to see where other church members were.

00:26:52.299 --> 00:26:54.179
 And when he was checking his mobile,

00:26:54.699 --> 00:26:57.259
 a woman come to him and asked him,

00:26:57.919 --> 00:26:59.399
 Are you Sam Go?

00:26:59.599 --> 00:27:01.000
 Are you the third brother?

00:27:01.099 --> 00:27:01.759
 Are you Sam Go?

00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:03.180
 I am Sam Go?

00:27:03.180 --> 00:27:05.039
 I am the third brother's wife.

00:27:05.539 --> 00:27:06.279
 How are you?

00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:08.099
 You look better.

00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:09.140
 You look healthier.

00:27:09.420 --> 00:27:11.059
 What happened to you?

00:27:11.779 --> 00:27:21.619
 And Mr. Chow told her sister-in-law about he was receiving gospel drug rehabilitation service.

00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:25.740
 He was living with other brother in the rehab center.

00:27:25.740 --> 00:27:27.319
 He was going to the church,

00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:32.500
 and now he was going to do some cleansing work for an elder person.

00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:36.599
 And one week later,

00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:37.680
 one week later,

00:27:38.480 --> 00:27:40.079
 his two elder sister,

00:27:40.620 --> 00:27:43.579
 his younger brother and his sister-in-law,

00:27:43.880 --> 00:27:45.680
 come out to have lunch with him.

00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:47.980
 And one month later,

00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:49.660
 another younger brother,

00:27:50.060 --> 00:27:54.220
 fly to Hong Kong from Europe to have dinner with him.

00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:56.039
 And a few weeks later,

00:27:56.400 --> 00:27:59.039
 her sister-in-law find her daughter.

00:27:59.500 --> 00:28:03.680
 Her daughter forgave him and accept him as father again.

00:28:04.519 --> 00:28:04.759
 So,

00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:07.100
 Mr. Chow said,

00:28:07.660 --> 00:28:09.799
 drug has taken everything from me.

00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:14.900
 I have never dreamed of having my family accept me again.

00:28:15.800 --> 00:28:18.420
 People used to look me as a worm,

00:28:18.780 --> 00:28:19.440
 as a rubbish,

00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:20.640
 or invisible.

00:28:21.380 --> 00:28:23.060
 People will not respect me.

00:28:23.340 --> 00:28:23.900
 But now,

00:28:24.280 --> 00:28:25.940
 God gave me a new identity.

00:28:26.660 --> 00:28:27.720
 God gave me dignity.

00:28:28.360 --> 00:28:30.100
 And God break back my family.

00:28:30.460 --> 00:28:31.740
 Not just a heavenly family,

00:28:31.880 --> 00:28:33.280
 but also my blood family.

00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:34.380
 So,

00:28:34.900 --> 00:28:38.420
 having my family forgive and accept me again

00:28:38.420 --> 00:28:40.100
 is the grace of God.

00:28:40.980 --> 00:28:41.460
 So,

00:28:41.780 --> 00:28:43.400
 it is not by the grace of God,

00:28:43.400 --> 00:28:45.120
 I don't think Mr. Chow can

00:28:45.120 --> 00:28:48.160
 reconsolate with his family.

00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:51.340
 Forgive is very difficult,

00:28:51.480 --> 00:28:53.100
 especially if someone hurts you

00:28:53.100 --> 00:28:55.620
 deep and very long time.

00:28:56.180 --> 00:28:58.500
 And ask to forgive is also very difficult,

00:28:58.640 --> 00:28:58.940
 because

00:28:58.940 --> 00:29:01.720
 we are afraid,

00:29:01.880 --> 00:29:03.700
 we don't like the feeling of shame.

00:29:04.060 --> 00:29:05.240
 We don't like the feeling

00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:08.019
 to plead guilty before man.

00:29:08.019 --> 00:29:08.660
 But,

00:29:09.660 --> 00:29:10.940
 Paul warned,

00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:13.420
 or Paul appealed to Philemon,

00:29:13.579 --> 00:29:15.460
 remember the grace of God.

00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:18.059
 Remember the love of Jesus Christ.

00:29:19.059 --> 00:29:19.299
 And,

00:29:19.639 --> 00:29:21.420
 let the love of Jesus Christ

00:29:21.420 --> 00:29:23.339
 be your energy,

00:29:23.900 --> 00:29:26.420
 be your strength and power

00:29:26.420 --> 00:29:27.400
 to forgive.

00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:28.359
 So,

00:29:28.619 --> 00:29:29.980
 Paul reminds Philemon that

00:29:29.980 --> 00:29:32.220
 he might not just

00:29:32.220 --> 00:29:33.400
 have received,

00:29:33.900 --> 00:29:35.720
 he might have not just received

00:29:35.720 --> 00:29:36.740
 Omnissimus

00:29:36.740 --> 00:29:37.960
 as a born servant,

00:29:38.339 --> 00:29:39.220
 but more

00:29:39.220 --> 00:29:40.420
 than a born servant.

00:29:41.059 --> 00:29:41.460
 Although,

00:29:42.500 --> 00:29:43.120
 Omnissimus

00:29:43.120 --> 00:29:44.319
 was still

00:29:44.319 --> 00:29:45.259
 a slave.

00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:46.019
 But,

00:29:46.380 --> 00:29:48.000
 slave is not his primary

00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:49.360
 identity anymore.

00:29:49.819 --> 00:29:51.019
 He was a son of God.

00:29:51.620 --> 00:29:52.039
 Slave

00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:52.960
 or master,

00:29:53.480 --> 00:29:54.700
 these identities

00:29:54.700 --> 00:29:56.000
 couldn't divide

00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:56.960
 the relationship

00:29:56.960 --> 00:29:58.440
 we have in Christ

00:29:58.440 --> 00:29:59.539
 because of Christ.

00:29:59.980 --> 00:30:01.019
 We can put down

00:30:01.019 --> 00:30:01.480
 the hatred

00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:02.660
 because of Christ.

00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:03.480
 We can put down

00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:04.980
 all the debt before.

00:30:05.500 --> 00:30:06.720
 We can reconcilate

00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:07.779
 with each other.

00:30:09.200 --> 00:30:09.579
 In

00:30:09.579 --> 00:30:10.819
 Shakpik prison,

00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:12.200
 every Wednesday,

00:30:12.539 --> 00:30:13.039
 I will have,

00:30:13.500 --> 00:30:14.120
 we will have

00:30:14.120 --> 00:30:15.240
 religious class

00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:16.640
 in Shakpik prison.

00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:18.180
 People from

00:30:18.180 --> 00:30:19.140
 South America,

00:30:19.539 --> 00:30:20.120
 people from

00:30:20.120 --> 00:30:20.660
 Africa,

00:30:21.180 --> 00:30:21.720
 people from

00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:22.200
 Asia

00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:23.480
 will come

00:30:23.480 --> 00:30:24.240
 to our

00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:25.039
 religious class.

00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:25.599
 We all

00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:26.839
 worship together

00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:27.920
 using different

00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:28.420
 languages.

00:30:28.420 --> 00:30:28.539
 religious,

00:30:28.980 --> 00:30:30.360
 we try to learn

00:30:30.360 --> 00:30:31.460
 the Bible.

00:30:32.060 --> 00:30:32.740
 Sometimes I will

00:30:32.740 --> 00:30:33.660
 speak in Cantonese,

00:30:33.740 --> 00:30:34.120
 someone will

00:30:34.120 --> 00:30:34.940
 translate it into

00:30:34.940 --> 00:30:35.320
 English,

00:30:35.600 --> 00:30:36.380
 and someone will

00:30:36.380 --> 00:30:37.560
 translate it from

00:30:37.560 --> 00:30:38.720
 English to Spanish

00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:39.539
 because I'm from

00:30:39.539 --> 00:30:40.600
 South America.

00:30:41.140 --> 00:30:41.820
 So, you know,

00:30:42.140 --> 00:30:43.019
 Cantonese,

00:30:43.580 --> 00:30:43.920
 Mandarin,

00:30:44.660 --> 00:30:45.640
 English,

00:30:46.220 --> 00:30:46.880
 Spanish,

00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:48.840
 we all speak

00:30:48.840 --> 00:30:49.759
 in the same

00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:50.680
 religious class.

00:30:51.300 --> 00:30:52.240
 Language didn't

00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:53.519
 become a bearer.

00:30:54.300 --> 00:30:55.560
 Our nationality,

00:30:55.559 --> 00:30:56.859
 our color,

00:30:57.759 --> 00:30:58.419
 it doesn't

00:30:58.419 --> 00:30:59.679
 matter because

00:30:59.679 --> 00:31:01.319
 we know

00:31:01.319 --> 00:31:02.440
 we are all

00:31:02.440 --> 00:31:02.879
 sinners.

00:31:03.539 --> 00:31:04.639
 We all need

00:31:04.639 --> 00:31:05.679
 the grace and

00:31:05.679 --> 00:31:06.460
 salvation from

00:31:06.460 --> 00:31:06.919
 Christ.

00:31:08.059 --> 00:31:09.039
 Some of them,

00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:09.919
 they are well

00:31:09.919 --> 00:31:10.480
 educated.

00:31:10.919 --> 00:31:11.399
 Some of them

00:31:11.399 --> 00:31:13.200
 are accountants.

00:31:13.539 --> 00:31:14.139
 Some of them

00:31:14.139 --> 00:31:14.659
 are lawyers.

00:31:15.099 --> 00:31:15.559
 Some of them

00:31:15.559 --> 00:31:16.059
 are teachers.

00:31:16.599 --> 00:31:17.079
 And some of

00:31:17.079 --> 00:31:18.039
 them are not

00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:18.679
 very well

00:31:18.679 --> 00:31:19.200
 educated.

00:31:19.559 --> 00:31:20.500
 They may have

00:31:20.500 --> 00:31:21.639
 a grade

00:31:21.639 --> 00:31:22.940
 six or

00:31:22.940 --> 00:31:24.179
 grade seven

00:31:24.179 --> 00:31:24.839
 education.

00:31:24.839 --> 00:31:26.079
 they were

00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:26.559
 a gangster.

00:31:27.099 --> 00:31:27.599
 Some from

00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:29.759
 America,

00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:30.599
 they didn't,

00:31:30.720 --> 00:31:31.539
 Africa,

00:31:31.759 --> 00:31:32.139
 they didn't

00:31:32.139 --> 00:31:32.959
 receive any

00:31:32.959 --> 00:31:34.819
 much well

00:31:34.819 --> 00:31:35.439
 education.

00:31:36.379 --> 00:31:36.740
 But,

00:31:37.539 --> 00:31:38.419
 they knew

00:31:38.419 --> 00:31:39.919
 education,

00:31:40.740 --> 00:31:41.679
 our intelligence,

00:31:42.179 --> 00:31:42.879
 couldn't help

00:31:42.879 --> 00:31:44.019
 us overcome

00:31:44.019 --> 00:31:44.919
 the dark side

00:31:44.919 --> 00:31:45.939
 of our humanity.

00:31:46.659 --> 00:31:47.119
 Even though

00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:47.599
 you are a

00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:47.839
 lawyer,

00:31:48.220 --> 00:31:48.579
 even though

00:31:48.579 --> 00:31:48.919
 you are

00:31:48.919 --> 00:31:49.720
 a professional

00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:50.959
 just like a

00:31:50.959 --> 00:31:51.379
 teacher,

00:31:52.099 --> 00:31:53.079
 when the

00:31:53.079 --> 00:31:53.559
 temptation

00:31:53.559 --> 00:31:54.240
 comes,

00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:54.960
 you will

00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:55.539
 still fail.

00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:56.500
 They commit

00:31:56.500 --> 00:31:57.920
 crime because

00:31:57.920 --> 00:31:59.059
 of money,

00:31:59.579 --> 00:32:00.140
 because of

00:32:00.140 --> 00:32:00.759
 sex,

00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:01.740
 some maybe

00:32:01.740 --> 00:32:02.640
 because they

00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:03.359
 couldn't control

00:32:03.359 --> 00:32:04.000
 their anger.

00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:04.660
 So,

00:32:04.779 --> 00:32:05.079
 they hurt

00:32:05.079 --> 00:32:05.940
 people and

00:32:05.940 --> 00:32:06.400
 they were

00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:07.579
 in prison.

00:32:08.180 --> 00:32:08.339
 So,

00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:10.380
 they understand

00:32:10.380 --> 00:32:10.960
 all,

00:32:11.680 --> 00:32:12.620
 we all

00:32:12.620 --> 00:32:13.900
 need the

00:32:13.900 --> 00:32:14.539
 salvation,

00:32:15.180 --> 00:32:16.440
 the grace

00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:17.019
 of God.

00:32:17.019 --> 00:32:17.059
 God.

00:32:17.539 --> 00:32:17.819
 So,

00:32:18.460 --> 00:32:19.440
 in this

00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:20.519
 little room,

00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:21.940
 we truly

00:32:21.940 --> 00:32:22.799
 share what

00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:24.160
 is grace,

00:32:24.740 --> 00:32:25.160
 no matter

00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:26.940
 what social

00:32:26.940 --> 00:32:27.519
 status,

00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:29.279
 or how

00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:29.740
 many money

00:32:29.740 --> 00:32:30.220
 you have,

00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:31.519
 or where

00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:31.940
 you come

00:32:31.940 --> 00:32:32.299
 from.

00:32:32.619 --> 00:32:33.200
 We are

00:32:33.200 --> 00:32:34.279
 all in

00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:35.420
 a family,

00:32:35.779 --> 00:32:36.220
 a heavenly

00:32:36.220 --> 00:32:36.619
 family.

00:32:36.779 --> 00:32:37.180
 We are all

00:32:37.180 --> 00:32:37.779
 brothers and

00:32:37.779 --> 00:32:38.720
 sisters of

00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:39.200
 a family.

00:32:39.720 --> 00:32:40.119
 I don't

00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:40.779
 know how

00:32:40.779 --> 00:32:42.079
 you feel

00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:42.599
 about this

00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:43.039
 teaching.

00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:43.099
 teaching.

00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:45.099
 Maybe you

00:32:45.099 --> 00:32:45.899
 understand this

00:32:45.899 --> 00:32:46.619
 teaching very

00:32:46.619 --> 00:32:47.259
 much in your

00:32:47.259 --> 00:32:47.899
 head a long

00:32:47.899 --> 00:32:48.599
 time ago.

00:32:49.659 --> 00:32:50.319
 But I

00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:51.019
 should remind

00:32:51.019 --> 00:32:51.379
 you,

00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:52.519
 it is very

00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:53.379
 hard to

00:32:53.379 --> 00:32:54.680
 put what

00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:55.299
 we learn

00:32:55.299 --> 00:32:55.859
 in our

00:32:55.859 --> 00:32:57.440
 head to

00:32:57.440 --> 00:32:58.460
 our heart

00:32:58.460 --> 00:32:59.299
 to live

00:32:59.299 --> 00:32:59.879
 it out.

00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:00.819
 Because

00:33:00.819 --> 00:33:01.659
 the world

00:33:01.659 --> 00:33:01.899
 is,

00:33:02.680 --> 00:33:04.000
 we are

00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:04.680
 living in a

00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:05.139
 world used

00:33:05.139 --> 00:33:07.139
 to judge

00:33:07.139 --> 00:33:07.980
 or compare

00:33:07.980 --> 00:33:09.079
 people by

00:33:09.079 --> 00:33:10.099
 many things

00:33:10.099 --> 00:33:10.799
 outside of

00:33:10.799 --> 00:33:11.279
 ourselves.

00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:12.339
 We use

00:33:12.339 --> 00:33:13.819
 education

00:33:13.819 --> 00:33:15.279
 to compare

00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:15.919
 people.

00:33:16.539 --> 00:33:16.980
 We use

00:33:16.980 --> 00:33:18.359
 where do

00:33:18.359 --> 00:33:19.019
 they live

00:33:19.019 --> 00:33:20.459
 to compare

00:33:20.459 --> 00:33:21.000
 people.

00:33:21.919 --> 00:33:22.519
 And because

00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:23.019
 I live in

00:33:23.019 --> 00:33:23.399
 Taiwan,

00:33:24.139 --> 00:33:24.799
 I live in

00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:26.740
 a public

00:33:26.740 --> 00:33:28.000
 estate,

00:33:28.659 --> 00:33:29.099
 and I

00:33:29.099 --> 00:33:29.839
 was very

00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:30.220
 poor.

00:33:30.639 --> 00:33:31.059
 So every

00:33:31.059 --> 00:33:31.399
 time I

00:33:31.399 --> 00:33:31.759
 went to

00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:32.319
 Central,

00:33:32.659 --> 00:33:33.579
 I was so

00:33:33.579 --> 00:33:33.939
 afraid,

00:33:34.059 --> 00:33:34.399
 anxious,

00:33:34.539 --> 00:33:35.000
 because I

00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:35.659
 felt I'm

00:33:35.659 --> 00:33:36.299
 not worthy

00:33:36.299 --> 00:33:37.679
 walking in

00:33:37.679 --> 00:33:38.039
 Central.

00:33:39.139 --> 00:33:40.240
 I'm lower

00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:40.659
 than the

00:33:40.659 --> 00:33:41.279
 people living

00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:41.980
 in Central.

00:33:42.339 --> 00:33:42.919
 They are

00:33:42.919 --> 00:33:44.199
 well-educated,

00:33:44.679 --> 00:33:45.899
 more educated

00:33:45.899 --> 00:33:46.399
 than me.

00:33:46.539 --> 00:33:46.779
 They have

00:33:46.779 --> 00:33:49.199
 more money

00:33:49.199 --> 00:33:49.759
 than me.

00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:52.000
 I dare

00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:52.419
 not to

00:33:52.419 --> 00:33:52.799
 speak to

00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:53.059
 them.

00:33:54.220 --> 00:33:54.899
 That's what

00:33:54.899 --> 00:33:55.500
 when I was

00:33:55.500 --> 00:33:56.019
 young, I

00:33:56.019 --> 00:33:56.459
 was like

00:33:56.459 --> 00:33:56.839
 that.

00:33:57.799 --> 00:33:58.859
 The world

00:33:58.859 --> 00:33:59.699
 teach me

00:33:59.699 --> 00:34:00.240
 like that.

00:34:00.439 --> 00:34:00.859
 We judge

00:34:00.859 --> 00:34:01.559
 people by

00:34:01.559 --> 00:34:03.019
 many our

00:34:03.019 --> 00:34:03.679
 things rather

00:34:03.679 --> 00:34:04.639
 than in

00:34:04.639 --> 00:34:05.019
 God.

00:34:05.019 --> 00:34:06.019
 people.

00:34:06.019 --> 00:34:06.639
 But in

00:34:06.639 --> 00:34:07.019
 this

00:34:07.019 --> 00:34:09.679
 religious

00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:10.259
 class in

00:34:10.259 --> 00:34:10.599
 Sepik

00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:10.920
 prison,

00:34:11.059 --> 00:34:11.920
 we truly

00:34:11.920 --> 00:34:12.920
 experience,

00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:14.280
 not in

00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:15.440
 our head,

00:34:15.659 --> 00:34:15.960
 but in

00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:16.519
 our heart,

00:34:16.619 --> 00:34:17.780
 because many

00:34:17.780 --> 00:34:18.320
 people,

00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:19.780
 Christian

00:34:19.780 --> 00:34:20.360
 volunteer,

00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:21.519
 they are

00:34:21.519 --> 00:34:22.239
 professors,

00:34:22.800 --> 00:34:23.099
 they are

00:34:23.099 --> 00:34:23.519
 musicians,

00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:24.539
 they are,

00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:25.719
 many come

00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:26.259
 from different

00:34:26.259 --> 00:34:27.019
 social classes,

00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:28.480
 come to the

00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:29.800
 prison and

00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:30.780
 worship together

00:34:30.780 --> 00:34:31.380
 with them,

00:34:31.380 --> 00:34:32.720
 and love

00:34:32.720 --> 00:34:32.980
 them,

00:34:33.119 --> 00:34:33.559
 show their

00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:34.059
 care to

00:34:34.059 --> 00:34:34.340
 them,

00:34:34.680 --> 00:34:35.180
 but not

00:34:35.180 --> 00:34:36.059
 as a role

00:34:36.059 --> 00:34:36.880
 of I'm a

00:34:36.880 --> 00:34:37.340
 rescuer,

00:34:37.460 --> 00:34:38.059
 I try to

00:34:38.059 --> 00:34:38.640
 rescue you.

00:34:38.820 --> 00:34:38.980
 No,

00:34:39.380 --> 00:34:39.820
 they really

00:34:39.820 --> 00:34:40.519
 come to,

00:34:40.760 --> 00:34:41.160
 I want to

00:34:41.160 --> 00:34:41.940
 make friends

00:34:41.940 --> 00:34:42.460
 with you,

00:34:42.660 --> 00:34:43.180
 I want to

00:34:43.180 --> 00:34:43.599
 be your

00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:43.980
 brother,

00:34:44.200 --> 00:34:44.660
 I want to

00:34:44.660 --> 00:34:45.539
 be your

00:34:45.539 --> 00:34:46.200
 sister,

00:34:46.500 --> 00:34:47.039
 I want to

00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:47.840
 walk with

00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:48.680
 you through

00:34:48.680 --> 00:34:49.320
 a journey,

00:34:49.780 --> 00:34:50.519
 especially

00:34:50.519 --> 00:34:52.860
 in a low

00:34:52.860 --> 00:34:53.420
 time of

00:34:53.420 --> 00:34:54.000
 your life.

00:34:54.400 --> 00:34:55.059
 So they

00:34:55.059 --> 00:34:56.340
 truly experience

00:34:56.340 --> 00:34:56.860
 the grace

00:34:56.860 --> 00:34:57.440
 of God in

00:34:57.440 --> 00:34:58.400
 their heart.

00:34:59.440 --> 00:34:59.800
 So I

00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:00.079
 think

00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.559
 maybe

00:35:02.559 --> 00:35:03.579
 it is a

00:35:03.579 --> 00:35:04.299
 very blessed

00:35:04.299 --> 00:35:05.099
 place,

00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:06.579
 somehow

00:35:06.579 --> 00:35:07.539
 maybe more

00:35:07.539 --> 00:35:08.400
 blessed than

00:35:08.400 --> 00:35:09.000
 in this

00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:09.380
 place,

00:35:09.619 --> 00:35:10.159
 because we

00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:10.500
 are all

00:35:10.500 --> 00:35:11.179
 sitting here

00:35:11.179 --> 00:35:11.900
 with a

00:35:11.900 --> 00:35:12.199
 proper

00:35:12.199 --> 00:35:12.779
 dressing,

00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:13.920
 we have

00:35:13.920 --> 00:35:14.360
 air

00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:14.779
 condition,

00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:16.059
 and we

00:35:16.059 --> 00:35:16.559
 all look

00:35:16.559 --> 00:35:17.199
 like very

00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:18.579
 civilized,

00:35:20.179 --> 00:35:20.500
 you know,

00:35:20.759 --> 00:35:21.380
 so people

00:35:21.380 --> 00:35:22.039
 will respect

00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:22.380
 you,

00:35:22.699 --> 00:35:23.119
 people will

00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:23.639
 love you,

00:35:24.059 --> 00:35:24.840
 probably because

00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:25.539
 of your

00:35:25.539 --> 00:35:25.960
 dressing,

00:35:26.500 --> 00:35:27.400
 because you

00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:28.219
 are speaking

00:35:28.219 --> 00:35:28.980
 very nice

00:35:28.980 --> 00:35:29.539
 to me,

00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:31.519
 but in

00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:32.019
 the prison,

00:35:32.920 --> 00:35:33.719
 they're

00:35:33.719 --> 00:35:34.139
 dressing

00:35:34.139 --> 00:35:35.239
 prisoner's

00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:35.599
 clothes,

00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:36.579
 they got

00:35:36.579 --> 00:35:36.779
 their

00:35:36.779 --> 00:35:37.119
 uniform,

00:35:38.299 --> 00:35:39.380
 and they

00:35:39.380 --> 00:35:39.900
 strip off

00:35:39.900 --> 00:35:40.699
 all their

00:35:40.699 --> 00:35:41.519
 social

00:35:41.519 --> 00:35:42.179
 titles,

00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:42.940
 even though

00:35:42.940 --> 00:35:43.219
 they're

00:35:43.219 --> 00:35:43.679
 a lawyer,

00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:44.299
 they're

00:35:44.299 --> 00:35:44.739
 accountant,

00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:45.460
 no,

00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:46.279
 they become

00:35:46.279 --> 00:35:46.779
 a number,

00:35:48.139 --> 00:35:48.380
 three,

00:35:48.460 --> 00:35:48.619
 five,

00:35:48.679 --> 00:35:48.819
 six,

00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:49.319
 so one,

00:35:49.559 --> 00:35:49.840
 come,

00:35:50.219 --> 00:35:50.500
 someone

00:35:50.500 --> 00:35:51.099
 visit you.

00:35:51.940 --> 00:35:53.299
 So when

00:35:53.299 --> 00:35:54.460
 he experiences

00:35:54.460 --> 00:35:54.860
 this and

00:35:54.860 --> 00:35:56.500
 someone didn't

00:35:56.500 --> 00:35:57.139
 care about

00:35:57.139 --> 00:35:58.000
 how he

00:35:58.000 --> 00:35:58.440
 dressed,

00:35:59.400 --> 00:36:01.000
 what people

00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:01.799
 call him,

00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:03.339
 they experience

00:36:03.339 --> 00:36:04.199
 someone truly

00:36:04.199 --> 00:36:05.319
 accept them,

00:36:05.859 --> 00:36:06.440
 love them,

00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:07.900
 and share

00:36:07.900 --> 00:36:09.000
 God's love

00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:10.679
 to them,

00:36:10.980 --> 00:36:11.799
 they experience

00:36:11.799 --> 00:36:12.920
 the power

00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:13.319
 of the

00:36:13.319 --> 00:36:13.699
 gospel,

00:36:14.259 --> 00:36:15.719
 it breaks

00:36:15.719 --> 00:36:16.239
 all the

00:36:16.239 --> 00:36:17.019
 dividing

00:36:17.019 --> 00:36:17.500
 wall,

00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:18.739
 we become

00:36:18.739 --> 00:36:19.960
 a body,

00:36:20.179 --> 00:36:20.619
 we become

00:36:20.619 --> 00:36:21.259
 a family,

00:36:21.260 --> 00:36:23.720
 no matter

00:36:23.720 --> 00:36:24.480
 what language

00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:25.220
 you're speaking,

00:36:25.680 --> 00:36:26.040
 no matter

00:36:26.040 --> 00:36:26.740
 what color

00:36:26.740 --> 00:36:27.400
 you are,

00:36:28.080 --> 00:36:28.780
 and I

00:36:28.780 --> 00:36:29.680
 saw that

00:36:29.680 --> 00:36:30.100
 is the

00:36:30.100 --> 00:36:31.100
 power of

00:36:31.100 --> 00:36:31.620
 the gospel,

00:36:33.280 --> 00:36:34.460
 so I

00:36:34.460 --> 00:36:35.960
 think I

00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:36.620
 can only

00:36:36.620 --> 00:36:37.100
 share my

00:36:37.100 --> 00:36:37.600
 experience,

00:36:37.800 --> 00:36:38.800
 I want you

00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:39.820
 to understand

00:36:39.820 --> 00:36:40.580
 and try to

00:36:40.580 --> 00:36:41.880
 learn in

00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:42.520
 this place,

00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:43.960
 we shouldn't

00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:44.640
 and we need

00:36:44.640 --> 00:36:45.260
 not to learn

00:36:45.260 --> 00:36:45.640
 it in the

00:36:45.640 --> 00:36:45.860
 prison,

00:36:46.180 --> 00:36:46.780
 I don't want

00:36:46.780 --> 00:36:47.400
 you all to

00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:48.500
 go to

00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:49.220
 prison to

00:36:49.220 --> 00:36:50.020
 experience this

00:36:50.020 --> 00:36:50.540
 experience,

00:36:50.539 --> 00:36:51.219
 but I

00:36:51.219 --> 00:36:51.860
 truly want

00:36:51.860 --> 00:36:52.179
 you to

00:36:52.179 --> 00:36:52.759
 experience

00:36:52.759 --> 00:36:53.579
 the power

00:36:53.579 --> 00:36:53.840
 of the

00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:54.639
 gospel in

00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:55.059
 here,

00:36:55.360 --> 00:36:55.779
 we can

00:36:55.779 --> 00:36:56.320
 love each

00:36:56.320 --> 00:36:56.960
 other no

00:36:56.960 --> 00:36:58.059
 matter what

00:36:58.059 --> 00:36:59.960
 social status

00:36:59.960 --> 00:37:00.460
 you are,

00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:01.980
 what language

00:37:01.980 --> 00:37:02.599
 you are speaking,

00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:03.539
 what color

00:37:03.539 --> 00:37:03.940
 you are,

00:37:04.279 --> 00:37:04.820
 where you

00:37:04.820 --> 00:37:05.259
 live,

00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:07.019
 in Christ

00:37:07.019 --> 00:37:07.519
 we are all

00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:08.440
 one family,

00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:11.360
 so Paul knew

00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:12.519
 that Omnismos

00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:13.000
 takes some

00:37:13.000 --> 00:37:13.980
 value thing

00:37:13.980 --> 00:37:14.800
 from Philemon,

00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:15.880
 maybe money,

00:37:16.019 --> 00:37:16.599
 maybe anything,

00:37:17.159 --> 00:37:18.079
 but Paul knew

00:37:18.079 --> 00:37:18.960
 it might bring

00:37:18.960 --> 00:37:19.659
 some hurt

00:37:19.659 --> 00:37:20.879
 to Philemon,

00:37:21.579 --> 00:37:21.980
 Paul was

00:37:21.980 --> 00:37:22.599
 willing to

00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:23.059
 take the

00:37:23.059 --> 00:37:23.339
 debt

00:37:23.339 --> 00:37:24.399
 of Omnismos

00:37:24.399 --> 00:37:25.219
 or Philemon

00:37:25.219 --> 00:37:25.859
 into his

00:37:25.859 --> 00:37:26.339
 account,

00:37:27.219 --> 00:37:27.579
 he was

00:37:27.579 --> 00:37:28.259
 imitating

00:37:28.259 --> 00:37:29.639
 Jesus Christ,

00:37:30.219 --> 00:37:31.079
 Jesus Christ

00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:31.739
 bear our

00:37:31.739 --> 00:37:32.460
 sin and

00:37:32.460 --> 00:37:33.279
 pay the

00:37:33.279 --> 00:37:33.719
 debt of

00:37:33.719 --> 00:37:34.179
 our sin

00:37:34.179 --> 00:37:34.539
 on the

00:37:34.539 --> 00:37:34.899
 cross,

00:37:35.619 --> 00:37:36.000
 Paul was

00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:36.539
 willing to

00:37:36.539 --> 00:37:37.319
 take the

00:37:37.319 --> 00:37:37.819
 debt of

00:37:37.819 --> 00:37:38.519
 Omnismos

00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:39.159
 as his

00:37:39.159 --> 00:37:39.559
 own,

00:37:40.799 --> 00:37:41.199
 is there

00:37:41.199 --> 00:37:41.839
 anyone hurt

00:37:41.839 --> 00:37:42.099
 you,

00:37:43.099 --> 00:37:43.440
 that you

00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:44.000
 find it

00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:44.579
 very difficult

00:37:44.579 --> 00:37:45.319
 to forgive,

00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:47.400
 what do

00:37:47.400 --> 00:37:47.820
 you think

00:37:47.820 --> 00:37:48.760
 if Jesus

00:37:48.760 --> 00:37:49.980
 Christ

00:37:49.980 --> 00:37:51.240
 was not

00:37:51.240 --> 00:37:51.760
 only

00:37:51.760 --> 00:37:52.539
 die for

00:37:52.539 --> 00:37:52.960
 you,

00:37:53.500 --> 00:37:54.080
 but also

00:37:54.080 --> 00:37:54.559
 the one

00:37:54.559 --> 00:37:55.140
 who hurt

00:37:55.140 --> 00:37:55.420
 you?

00:37:57.740 --> 00:37:58.840
 My sister

00:37:58.840 --> 00:37:59.940
 was adopted

00:37:59.940 --> 00:38:00.680
 to my

00:38:00.680 --> 00:38:01.240
 family

00:38:01.240 --> 00:38:02.300
 when I

00:38:02.300 --> 00:38:02.820
 was born,

00:38:03.240 --> 00:38:03.760
 at that

00:38:03.760 --> 00:38:04.700
 time she

00:38:04.700 --> 00:38:05.240
 was just

00:38:05.240 --> 00:38:05.940
 two years

00:38:05.940 --> 00:38:06.240
 old,

00:38:07.420 --> 00:38:07.940
 her birth

00:38:07.940 --> 00:38:09.000
 father

00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:09.760
 abandoned

00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:10.220
 her

00:38:10.220 --> 00:38:11.640
 when she

00:38:11.640 --> 00:38:12.160
 was two,

00:38:12.159 --> 00:38:13.899
 and she

00:38:13.899 --> 00:38:14.359
 knew this

00:38:14.359 --> 00:38:15.099
 truth when

00:38:15.099 --> 00:38:15.599
 she was

00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:16.059
 five.

00:38:17.420 --> 00:38:17.639
 Her

00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:17.899
 birth

00:38:17.899 --> 00:38:18.799
 father

00:38:18.799 --> 00:38:19.259
 will

00:38:19.259 --> 00:38:19.859
 occasionally

00:38:19.859 --> 00:38:20.980
 visit her

00:38:20.980 --> 00:38:21.920
 a few

00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:22.480
 times a

00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:22.779
 year,

00:38:23.460 --> 00:38:24.079
 but every

00:38:24.079 --> 00:38:25.179
 time her

00:38:25.179 --> 00:38:26.279
 birth father

00:38:26.279 --> 00:38:27.199
 visits her,

00:38:28.379 --> 00:38:28.719
 he will

00:38:28.719 --> 00:38:29.279
 ask my

00:38:29.279 --> 00:38:29.819
 sister,

00:38:30.379 --> 00:38:31.719
 take her

00:38:31.719 --> 00:38:32.179
 homework,

00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:33.119
 take her

00:38:33.119 --> 00:38:33.879
 test paper

00:38:33.879 --> 00:38:35.019
 to let

00:38:35.019 --> 00:38:35.920
 him have

00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:36.259
 a look,

00:38:37.179 --> 00:38:38.879
 and her

00:38:38.879 --> 00:38:40.019
 birth father

00:38:40.019 --> 00:38:40.460
 will ask

00:38:40.460 --> 00:38:40.699
 her,

00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:41.399
 kneel down,

00:38:42.159 --> 00:38:43.639
 ask about

00:38:43.639 --> 00:38:44.659
 how come

00:38:44.659 --> 00:38:45.079
 you got

00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:45.739
 so low

00:38:45.739 --> 00:38:46.639
 score in

00:38:46.639 --> 00:38:47.219
 the school,

00:38:47.719 --> 00:38:48.179
 and her

00:38:48.179 --> 00:38:49.099
 birth father

00:38:49.099 --> 00:38:49.659
 will beat

00:38:49.659 --> 00:38:50.259
 her.

00:38:51.319 --> 00:38:52.579
 So she

00:38:52.579 --> 00:38:53.059
 suffered a

00:38:53.059 --> 00:38:53.699
 lot in

00:38:53.699 --> 00:38:54.679
 her childhood,

00:38:55.379 --> 00:38:56.659
 and she

00:38:56.659 --> 00:38:57.279
 wasn't getting

00:38:57.279 --> 00:38:58.639
 very well

00:38:58.639 --> 00:38:59.500
 with my

00:38:59.500 --> 00:39:00.119
 family,

00:39:00.319 --> 00:39:00.839
 especially to

00:39:00.839 --> 00:39:01.500
 my parents

00:39:01.500 --> 00:39:01.960
 also,

00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:03.500
 so she

00:39:03.500 --> 00:39:04.960
 left our

00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:05.420
 family,

00:39:05.819 --> 00:39:06.519
 live by

00:39:06.519 --> 00:39:07.679
 herself when

00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:08.119
 she was

00:39:08.119 --> 00:39:09.159
 16 years

00:39:09.159 --> 00:39:09.460
 old,

00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:10.799
 and she

00:39:10.799 --> 00:39:11.339
 just got

00:39:11.340 --> 00:39:12.420
 grade 9

00:39:12.420 --> 00:39:13.100
 education.

00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:13.820
 So for

00:39:13.820 --> 00:39:14.059
 her,

00:39:14.140 --> 00:39:14.539
 it's very

00:39:14.539 --> 00:39:15.140
 difficult to

00:39:15.140 --> 00:39:15.480
 make a

00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:16.440
 living with

00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:17.980
 a grade 9

00:39:17.980 --> 00:39:18.640
 education,

00:39:19.180 --> 00:39:20.059
 16 years

00:39:20.059 --> 00:39:20.640
 old girl,

00:39:21.240 --> 00:39:21.800
 she need

00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:22.660
 to take

00:39:22.660 --> 00:39:23.740
 care all

00:39:23.740 --> 00:39:24.820
 by herself.

00:39:24.820 --> 00:39:27.059
 but eventually,

00:39:27.860 --> 00:39:29.800
 she settled

00:39:29.800 --> 00:39:30.400
 down with

00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:30.940
 a stable

00:39:30.940 --> 00:39:31.420
 income,

00:39:31.920 --> 00:39:32.340
 and he

00:39:32.340 --> 00:39:33.059
 met a

00:39:33.059 --> 00:39:33.500
 boyfriend,

00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:34.559
 living with

00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:35.600
 her boyfriend.

00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:38.220
 But happy

00:39:38.220 --> 00:39:39.160
 days were

00:39:39.160 --> 00:39:39.900
 very short.

00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:40.900
 At her

00:39:40.900 --> 00:39:42.100
 early 30,

00:39:42.260 --> 00:39:43.559
 I couldn't

00:39:43.559 --> 00:39:43.900
 remember,

00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:44.840
 it's 31

00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:45.400
 years old,

00:39:45.539 --> 00:39:45.980
 or 32

00:39:45.980 --> 00:39:46.960
 years old,

00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:48.059
 my sister

00:39:48.059 --> 00:39:49.600
 was diagnosed

00:39:49.600 --> 00:39:50.440
 with phase

00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:51.260
 4 cancer,

00:39:51.260 --> 00:39:53.700
 and at

00:39:53.700 --> 00:39:54.100
 the same

00:39:54.100 --> 00:39:54.660
 time,

00:39:55.460 --> 00:39:56.080
 she found

00:39:56.080 --> 00:39:57.120
 her boyfriend

00:39:57.120 --> 00:39:58.180
 was in

00:39:58.180 --> 00:39:58.620
 love with

00:39:58.620 --> 00:39:59.100
 another

00:39:59.100 --> 00:39:59.480
 woman.

00:40:00.560 --> 00:40:01.920
 So she

00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:03.240
 was so

00:40:03.240 --> 00:40:03.980

00:40:07.620 --> 00:40:08.180
 Her

00:40:08.180 --> 00:40:08.640
 boyfriend

00:40:08.640 --> 00:40:09.300

00:40:09.300 --> 00:40:09.840
 to be with

00:40:09.840 --> 00:40:10.540
 her anymore,

 Suffer and

00:40:19.260 --> 00:40:20.280
 exhausted,

00:40:21.100 --> 00:40:24.100
 she started

00:40:24.100 --> 00:40:24.740
 to go to

00:40:24.740 --> 00:40:25.260
 church with

00:40:25.260 --> 00:40:25.560
 us.

00:40:26.220 --> 00:40:26.620
 And in

00:40:26.620 --> 00:40:27.160
 the church,

00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:28.180
 he heard

00:40:28.180 --> 00:40:28.780
 the gospel,

00:40:29.700 --> 00:40:30.140
 he heard

00:40:30.140 --> 00:40:30.560
 Jesus.

00:40:32.940 --> 00:40:34.280
 She told

00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:35.040
 me, she

00:40:35.040 --> 00:40:35.580
 think about

00:40:35.580 --> 00:40:36.060
 all his

00:40:36.060 --> 00:40:36.880
 life, he

00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:37.360
 suffered a

00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:38.300
 lot, and

00:40:38.300 --> 00:40:38.860
 she also

00:40:38.860 --> 00:40:39.480
 did many

00:40:39.480 --> 00:40:39.980
 mistakes.

00:40:40.860 --> 00:40:41.220
 She was

00:40:41.220 --> 00:40:41.840
 so

00:40:41.840 --> 00:40:45.000
 self-centered,

00:40:45.920 --> 00:40:46.480
 sometimes

00:40:46.480 --> 00:40:47.020
 she was so

00:40:47.020 --> 00:40:47.640
 pried,

00:40:48.360 --> 00:40:48.580
 so

00:40:48.579 --> 00:40:50.380
 he asked

00:40:50.380 --> 00:40:51.199
 Jesus to

00:40:51.199 --> 00:40:51.900
 forgive her

00:40:51.900 --> 00:40:53.139
 sin, and

00:40:53.139 --> 00:40:54.480
 also he

00:40:54.480 --> 00:40:55.099
 asked Jesus

00:40:55.099 --> 00:40:55.739
 to heal

00:40:55.739 --> 00:40:56.340
 the hurt

00:40:56.340 --> 00:40:57.380
 in her

00:40:57.380 --> 00:40:57.719
 heart.

00:40:58.460 --> 00:40:59.380
 She said

00:40:59.380 --> 00:41:00.480
 she wanted

00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:00.900
 to find

00:41:00.900 --> 00:41:01.880
 love from

00:41:01.880 --> 00:41:03.539
 her father,

00:41:03.659 --> 00:41:04.000
 but her

00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:04.779
 father didn't

00:41:04.779 --> 00:41:05.219
 love her.

00:41:05.980 --> 00:41:06.460
 She wanted

00:41:06.460 --> 00:41:07.059
 to find love

00:41:07.059 --> 00:41:07.619
 from her

00:41:07.619 --> 00:41:08.219
 boyfriend,

00:41:08.420 --> 00:41:09.239
 but the

00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:09.659
 love from

00:41:09.659 --> 00:41:10.400
 her boyfriend

00:41:10.400 --> 00:41:11.219
 was very

00:41:11.219 --> 00:41:11.659
 short,

00:41:11.779 --> 00:41:12.380
 very temporal,

00:41:13.000 --> 00:41:14.039
 but finally

00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:14.799
 he found

00:41:14.799 --> 00:41:15.860
 the love

00:41:15.860 --> 00:41:16.980
 in Jesus,

00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:17.820
 and this

00:41:17.820 --> 00:41:18.559
 love never

00:41:18.559 --> 00:41:19.280
 failed her,

00:41:19.740 --> 00:41:20.920
 so she

00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:21.820
 received Jesus

00:41:21.820 --> 00:41:22.780
 and baptized,

00:41:24.059 --> 00:41:24.840
 and thanks

00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:25.460
 God, by the

00:41:25.460 --> 00:41:25.820
 grace of

00:41:25.820 --> 00:41:26.660
 God, her

00:41:26.660 --> 00:41:27.260
 cancer was

00:41:27.260 --> 00:41:28.059
 under control,

00:41:28.680 --> 00:41:30.039
 and her

00:41:30.039 --> 00:41:30.460
 health

00:41:30.460 --> 00:41:31.039
 eventually

00:41:31.039 --> 00:41:31.680
 restored.

00:41:32.320 --> 00:41:32.720
 In the

00:41:32.720 --> 00:41:33.220
 meantime,

00:41:33.660 --> 00:41:34.260
 her boyfriend

00:41:34.260 --> 00:41:35.360
 come back,

00:41:35.800 --> 00:41:36.599
 want to make

00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:37.220
 up with her

00:41:37.220 --> 00:41:38.079
 and live

00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:38.599
 with her

00:41:38.599 --> 00:41:39.039
 again,

00:41:39.039 --> 00:41:41.219
 so they

00:41:41.219 --> 00:41:41.920
 tried to

00:41:41.920 --> 00:41:43.460
 work it

00:41:43.460 --> 00:41:43.920
 out again,

00:41:44.559 --> 00:41:45.779
 but they

00:41:45.779 --> 00:41:46.440
 enjoyed a

00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:46.900
 few years

00:41:46.900 --> 00:41:47.559
 of happiness,

00:41:48.300 --> 00:41:49.320
 but ten

00:41:49.320 --> 00:41:50.019
 years later,

00:41:50.360 --> 00:41:50.759
 in my

00:41:50.759 --> 00:41:51.739
 sister,

00:41:51.940 --> 00:41:52.880
 42 years

00:41:52.880 --> 00:41:53.159
 old,

00:41:53.659 --> 00:41:54.019
 the cancer

00:41:54.019 --> 00:41:54.619
 came back,

00:41:55.079 --> 00:41:55.420
 and this

00:41:55.420 --> 00:41:55.840
 time,

00:41:56.440 --> 00:41:58.699
 he died

00:41:58.699 --> 00:41:59.820
 at 43

00:41:59.820 --> 00:42:00.960
 years old.

00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:02.279
 The day

00:42:02.279 --> 00:42:02.960
 she died,

00:42:03.559 --> 00:42:04.300
 every family

00:42:04.300 --> 00:42:05.279
 member came

00:42:05.279 --> 00:42:05.880
 to farewell

00:42:05.880 --> 00:42:06.380
 her,

00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:07.699
 and when

00:42:07.699 --> 00:42:08.699
 she breathed

00:42:08.699 --> 00:42:09.199
 out her

00:42:09.199 --> 00:42:10.079
 last breath,

00:42:10.919 --> 00:42:11.399
 it is

00:42:11.399 --> 00:42:12.679
 her birth

00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:13.379
 father

00:42:13.379 --> 00:42:15.339
 and her

00:42:15.339 --> 00:42:16.059
 husband,

00:42:17.059 --> 00:42:17.819
 the two

00:42:17.819 --> 00:42:19.079
 who hurt

00:42:19.079 --> 00:42:20.319
 her deepest

00:42:20.319 --> 00:42:21.079
 in her

00:42:21.079 --> 00:42:21.519
 life,

00:42:21.939 --> 00:42:22.319
 accompanied

00:42:22.319 --> 00:42:22.759
 her,

00:42:23.579 --> 00:42:24.000
 and when

00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:24.559
 my sister,

00:42:25.059 --> 00:42:25.519
 before she

00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:25.859
 died,

00:42:26.599 --> 00:42:27.019
 she said

00:42:27.019 --> 00:42:27.480
 to her

00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:27.779
 birth

00:42:27.779 --> 00:42:28.379
 father,

00:42:29.799 --> 00:42:30.079
 I

00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:30.519
 forgive

00:42:30.519 --> 00:42:30.939
 you.

00:42:33.500 --> 00:42:34.159
 She

00:42:34.159 --> 00:42:34.419
 knew

00:42:34.419 --> 00:42:34.719
 that

00:42:34.719 --> 00:42:35.099
 Jesus

00:42:35.099 --> 00:42:35.759
 Christ

00:42:35.759 --> 00:42:36.599
 not just

00:42:36.599 --> 00:42:37.079
 died for

00:42:37.079 --> 00:42:37.619
 her sin,

00:42:37.619 --> 00:42:39.239
 but also

00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:40.000
 those who

00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:40.659
 hurt her.

00:42:41.719 --> 00:42:41.960
 Jesus

00:42:41.960 --> 00:42:42.839
 has already

00:42:42.839 --> 00:42:43.599
 paid the

00:42:43.599 --> 00:42:44.000
 price.

00:42:44.739 --> 00:42:45.099
 She no

00:42:45.099 --> 00:42:45.519
 longer

00:42:45.519 --> 00:42:46.059
 hates

00:42:46.059 --> 00:42:46.920
 them.

00:42:47.719 --> 00:42:47.960
 She

00:42:47.960 --> 00:42:48.500
 needs no

00:42:48.500 --> 00:42:49.119
 revenge,

00:42:49.779 --> 00:42:50.400
 and she

00:42:50.400 --> 00:42:51.219
 left the

00:42:51.219 --> 00:42:52.319
 world without

00:42:52.319 --> 00:42:52.859
 hatred,

00:42:53.420 --> 00:42:53.799
 without

00:42:53.799 --> 00:42:54.420
 regret.

00:42:55.420 --> 00:42:56.159
 I saw

00:42:56.159 --> 00:42:56.699
 a beautiful

00:42:56.699 --> 00:42:57.319
 picture.

00:42:58.480 --> 00:42:59.199
 Two men

00:42:59.199 --> 00:43:00.319
 hurt my

00:43:00.319 --> 00:43:00.799
 sister

00:43:00.799 --> 00:43:01.659
 most

00:43:01.659 --> 00:43:02.859
 in her

00:43:02.859 --> 00:43:03.319
 life,

00:43:03.880 --> 00:43:04.219
 but it

00:43:04.219 --> 00:43:04.500
 is

00:43:04.500 --> 00:43:05.579
 day,

00:43:05.780 --> 00:43:06.099
 it is

00:43:06.099 --> 00:43:06.420
 them

00:43:06.420 --> 00:43:07.599
 accompanying

00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:08.519
 her to

00:43:08.519 --> 00:43:09.800
 walk to

00:43:09.800 --> 00:43:10.320
 the end,

00:43:10.820 --> 00:43:11.179
 to live

00:43:11.179 --> 00:43:12.360
 this world.

00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:13.599
 And what a

00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:14.260
 wonderful picture

00:43:14.260 --> 00:43:14.599
 is,

00:43:15.219 --> 00:43:15.739
 when my

00:43:15.739 --> 00:43:16.179
 sister

00:43:16.179 --> 00:43:16.679
 died,

00:43:17.300 --> 00:43:17.460
 he

00:43:17.460 --> 00:43:18.400
 reconsolates

00:43:18.400 --> 00:43:19.619
 with her

00:43:19.619 --> 00:43:20.059
 father,

00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:20.739
 and also

00:43:20.739 --> 00:43:22.179
 he

00:43:22.179 --> 00:43:25.099
 affirmed

00:43:25.099 --> 00:43:26.659
 her love

00:43:26.659 --> 00:43:27.320
 and her

00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:28.440
 husband's

00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:28.780
 love.

00:43:29.380 --> 00:43:30.300
 It's by the

00:43:30.300 --> 00:43:30.960
 power of the

00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:31.300
 gospel.

00:43:32.079 --> 00:43:32.380
 It is

00:43:32.380 --> 00:43:32.820
 Jesus

00:43:32.820 --> 00:43:33.420
 healed

00:43:33.420 --> 00:43:33.980
 the

00:43:33.980 --> 00:43:34.340
 wound,

00:43:34.500 --> 00:43:34.700
 the

00:43:34.700 --> 00:43:35.400
 hurt in

00:43:35.400 --> 00:43:35.660
 my

00:43:35.660 --> 00:43:36.220
 sister's

00:43:36.220 --> 00:43:36.519
 heart,

00:43:36.660 --> 00:43:37.900
 that she

00:43:37.900 --> 00:43:38.320
 can have

00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:38.800
 the love

00:43:38.800 --> 00:43:39.460
 to forgive

00:43:39.460 --> 00:43:40.880
 and to

00:43:40.880 --> 00:43:41.640
 put down

00:43:41.640 --> 00:43:42.260
 all the

00:43:42.260 --> 00:43:42.579
 debt.

00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:43.980
 He didn't

00:43:43.980 --> 00:43:44.700
 ask anyone

00:43:44.700 --> 00:43:45.180
 to pay

00:43:45.180 --> 00:43:45.900
 back the

00:43:45.900 --> 00:43:46.280
 debt they

00:43:46.280 --> 00:43:46.960
 own her.

00:43:48.360 --> 00:43:48.599
 I

00:43:48.599 --> 00:43:49.079
 witnessed,

00:43:49.619 --> 00:43:50.519
 I experienced

00:43:50.519 --> 00:43:51.260
 how Jesus

00:43:51.260 --> 00:43:52.119
 became our

00:43:52.119 --> 00:43:52.519
 peace.

00:43:53.360 --> 00:43:53.880
 I'm not

00:43:53.880 --> 00:43:55.480
 an academic

00:43:55.480 --> 00:43:55.960
 people.

00:43:56.340 --> 00:43:57.000
 I don't

00:43:57.000 --> 00:43:57.460
 know how

00:43:57.460 --> 00:43:58.880
 to explain

00:43:58.880 --> 00:44:00.260
 the scripture

00:44:00.260 --> 00:44:01.220
 very

00:44:01.220 --> 00:44:03.120
 reachfully

00:44:03.120 --> 00:44:03.620
 to you.

00:44:03.820 --> 00:44:04.180
 I can

00:44:04.180 --> 00:44:05.600
 only use

00:44:05.600 --> 00:44:06.760
 this life

00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:07.700
 story example

00:44:07.700 --> 00:44:08.820
 to tell

00:44:08.820 --> 00:44:09.340
 them what

00:44:09.340 --> 00:44:09.880
 I witnessed,

00:44:10.200 --> 00:44:10.480
 what I

00:44:10.480 --> 00:44:11.180
 experienced

00:44:11.180 --> 00:44:11.620
 in my

00:44:11.620 --> 00:44:11.960
 life,

00:44:12.500 --> 00:44:13.340
 how Jesus

00:44:13.340 --> 00:44:14.440
 has broken

00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:15.400
 down the

00:44:15.400 --> 00:44:16.360
 dividing wall

00:44:16.360 --> 00:44:17.320
 of hostility,

00:44:18.140 --> 00:44:18.600
 how he

00:44:18.600 --> 00:44:19.700
 created in

00:44:19.700 --> 00:44:20.840
 himself one

00:44:20.840 --> 00:44:21.900
 new man in

00:44:21.900 --> 00:44:22.480
 a place of

00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:22.960
 the two.

00:44:24.360 --> 00:44:24.700
 Did you

00:44:24.700 --> 00:44:25.500
 also experience

00:44:25.500 --> 00:44:25.840
 this?

00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:26.300
 I want

00:44:26.300 --> 00:44:27.059
 you to

00:44:27.059 --> 00:44:27.960
 think about

00:44:27.960 --> 00:44:29.640
 I want

00:44:29.640 --> 00:44:30.079
 to share

00:44:30.079 --> 00:44:31.000
 my experience

00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:32.320
 not to

00:44:32.320 --> 00:44:34.300
 earn your

00:44:34.300 --> 00:44:35.160
 like or

00:44:35.160 --> 00:44:36.160
 earn your

00:44:36.160 --> 00:44:36.780
 clap hand.

00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:37.320
 I just

00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:37.680
 want to

00:44:37.680 --> 00:44:38.079
 share with

00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:38.500
 you is

00:44:38.500 --> 00:44:39.640
 God is

00:44:39.640 --> 00:44:40.079
 true.

00:44:40.860 --> 00:44:41.320
 The power

00:44:41.320 --> 00:44:42.360
 of the

00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:42.920
 gospel is

00:44:42.920 --> 00:44:44.300
 very true.

00:44:44.820 --> 00:44:45.360
 It changed

00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:45.860
 my whole

00:44:45.860 --> 00:44:46.160
 life.

00:44:46.240 --> 00:44:46.600
 It changed

00:44:46.600 --> 00:44:47.340
 my family's

00:44:47.340 --> 00:44:47.559
 life.

00:44:47.900 --> 00:44:48.300
 It changed

00:44:48.300 --> 00:44:48.860
 the history

00:44:48.860 --> 00:44:49.960
 of my

00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:50.800
 whole family.

00:44:51.500 --> 00:44:51.980
 So I

00:44:51.980 --> 00:44:52.400
 want you

00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:53.000
 also to

00:44:53.000 --> 00:44:54.079
 experience it.

00:44:54.079 --> 00:44:55.219
 not just

00:44:55.219 --> 00:44:55.840
 stay in

00:44:55.840 --> 00:44:56.539
 our head.

00:44:57.619 --> 00:44:57.860
 Do you

00:44:57.860 --> 00:44:59.139
 think you

00:44:59.139 --> 00:44:59.759
 are most

00:44:59.759 --> 00:45:00.559
 related to

00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:02.159
 Omnisimus or

00:45:02.159 --> 00:45:02.880
 to Philemon?

00:45:03.400 --> 00:45:03.840
 Did you

00:45:03.840 --> 00:45:04.960
 hurt someone

00:45:04.960 --> 00:45:05.559
 that you

00:45:05.559 --> 00:45:06.079
 dare not

00:45:06.079 --> 00:45:06.519
 to ask

00:45:06.519 --> 00:45:06.960
 forgiveness

00:45:06.960 --> 00:45:08.039
 from him

00:45:08.039 --> 00:45:08.840
 or from

00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:09.119
 her?

00:45:09.699 --> 00:45:10.619
 Or does

00:45:10.619 --> 00:45:11.719
 anyone hurt

00:45:11.719 --> 00:45:12.380
 you before

00:45:12.380 --> 00:45:13.199
 that you

00:45:13.199 --> 00:45:13.659
 find it

00:45:13.659 --> 00:45:14.279
 very difficult

00:45:14.279 --> 00:45:15.059
 to forgive

00:45:15.059 --> 00:45:16.360
 him or

00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:17.119
 forgive her?

00:45:17.920 --> 00:45:18.779
 Or do

00:45:18.779 --> 00:45:19.239
 you find

00:45:19.239 --> 00:45:20.599
 the social

00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:21.539
 status,

00:45:21.960 --> 00:45:22.639
 slave or

00:45:22.639 --> 00:45:23.019
 master,

00:45:23.019 --> 00:45:24.539
 educated or

00:45:24.539 --> 00:45:25.400
 uneducated?

00:45:25.739 --> 00:45:26.280
 It becomes

00:45:26.280 --> 00:45:26.759
 a barrier

00:45:26.759 --> 00:45:27.300
 for you

00:45:27.300 --> 00:45:27.980
 to connect

00:45:27.980 --> 00:45:28.659
 to people,

00:45:29.019 --> 00:45:29.619
 to love

00:45:29.619 --> 00:45:30.300
 the people,

00:45:30.759 --> 00:45:31.679
 or be

00:45:31.679 --> 00:45:32.159
 united

00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:33.159
 together in

00:45:33.159 --> 00:45:33.639
 Christ?

00:45:34.880 --> 00:45:35.579
 We all

00:45:35.579 --> 00:45:36.019
 need to

00:45:36.019 --> 00:45:36.639
 face the

00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:37.179
 dark side

00:45:37.179 --> 00:45:37.559
 of our

00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:38.119
 humanity.

00:45:38.900 --> 00:45:39.179
 We are

00:45:39.179 --> 00:45:39.940
 very fragile.

00:45:40.619 --> 00:45:40.940
 We are

00:45:40.940 --> 00:45:42.219
 just broken

00:45:42.219 --> 00:45:42.800
 human.

00:45:43.780 --> 00:45:45.239
 But there's

00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:45.599
 hope.

00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:46.219
 We should

00:45:46.219 --> 00:45:47.000
 just look

00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:47.780
 in ourselves

00:45:47.780 --> 00:45:48.679
 and don't

00:45:48.679 --> 00:45:50.179
 look to

00:45:50.179 --> 00:45:50.500
 God.

00:45:50.940 --> 00:45:51.380
 We should

00:45:51.380 --> 00:45:51.739
 look to

00:45:51.739 --> 00:45:52.239
 ourselves,

00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:52.839
 but also

00:45:52.839 --> 00:45:53.239
 we should

00:45:53.239 --> 00:45:53.639
 look to

00:45:53.639 --> 00:45:54.439
 Jesus Christ,

00:45:54.519 --> 00:45:55.000
 what he

00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:55.619
 did for

00:45:55.619 --> 00:45:56.099
 us.

00:45:57.039 --> 00:45:57.399
 It is

00:45:57.399 --> 00:45:58.619
 Jesus who

00:45:58.619 --> 00:45:59.299
 helped us

00:45:59.299 --> 00:45:59.839
 or saved

00:45:59.839 --> 00:46:00.159
 us.

00:46:00.679 --> 00:46:01.339
 It is

00:46:01.339 --> 00:46:01.899
 Jesus who

00:46:01.899 --> 00:46:02.759
 delivered us

00:46:02.759 --> 00:46:05.159
 from the

00:46:05.159 --> 00:46:05.559
 guilty,

00:46:06.119 --> 00:46:07.079
 from shame.

00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:08.319
 It is also

00:46:08.319 --> 00:46:09.699
 Jesus who

00:46:09.699 --> 00:46:10.379
 gave us

00:46:10.379 --> 00:46:11.559
 power,

00:46:11.799 --> 00:46:12.819
 strength to

00:46:12.819 --> 00:46:13.899
 forgive or

00:46:13.899 --> 00:46:14.959
 to ask for

00:46:14.959 --> 00:46:15.419
 forgiveness.

00:46:16.059 --> 00:46:17.000
 Don't let

00:46:17.000 --> 00:46:17.859
 yourself trapped

00:46:17.859 --> 00:46:18.879
 in hatred

00:46:18.879 --> 00:46:19.719
 or trapped

00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:20.279
 in guilt

00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:20.920
 or shame.

00:46:21.540 --> 00:46:22.120
 It is

00:46:22.120 --> 00:46:22.740
 Jesus who

00:46:22.740 --> 00:46:23.580
 promised us

00:46:23.580 --> 00:46:24.540
 to have a

00:46:24.540 --> 00:46:26.260
 joyful life

00:46:26.260 --> 00:46:26.900
 through a

00:46:26.900 --> 00:46:27.280
 freedom.

00:46:27.660 --> 00:46:28.620
 I can freely

00:46:28.620 --> 00:46:29.420
 love people.

00:46:29.780 --> 00:46:30.500
 I am not a

00:46:30.500 --> 00:46:31.040
 slave of

00:46:31.040 --> 00:46:32.040
 sin.

00:46:32.160 --> 00:46:32.740
 I am not a

00:46:32.740 --> 00:46:33.220
 slave of

00:46:33.220 --> 00:46:34.600
 my shame.

00:46:34.820 --> 00:46:35.420
 I am not a

00:46:35.420 --> 00:46:35.860
 slave of

00:46:35.860 --> 00:46:36.620
 my pride.

00:46:37.480 --> 00:46:38.780
 I can freely

00:46:38.780 --> 00:46:39.860
 love people

00:46:39.860 --> 00:46:40.740
 just as

00:46:40.740 --> 00:46:41.620
 Jesus loved

00:46:41.620 --> 00:46:42.060
 me.

00:46:42.860 --> 00:46:43.620
 So I just

00:46:43.620 --> 00:46:44.320
 want you to

00:46:44.320 --> 00:46:45.940
 enjoy the

00:46:45.940 --> 00:46:46.640
 love of

00:46:46.639 --> 00:46:47.019
 Jesus.

00:46:47.759 --> 00:46:48.339
 And let

00:46:48.339 --> 00:46:48.779
 the love

00:46:48.779 --> 00:46:49.239
 of Jesus

00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:50.079
 help you

00:46:50.079 --> 00:46:51.440
 to ask

00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:52.079
 for forgiveness

00:46:52.079 --> 00:46:52.900
 or to

00:46:52.900 --> 00:46:54.099
 forgive or

00:46:54.099 --> 00:46:54.679
 to love

00:46:54.679 --> 00:46:55.420
 someone very

00:46:55.420 --> 00:46:56.139
 different from

00:46:56.139 --> 00:46:56.500
 you.

00:46:57.119 --> 00:46:57.639
 And let

00:46:57.639 --> 00:46:58.239
 the grace

00:46:58.239 --> 00:46:58.699
 and the

00:46:58.699 --> 00:46:59.139
 love of

00:46:59.139 --> 00:47:00.239
 God flow

00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:01.179
 through you

00:47:01.179 --> 00:47:02.000
 to the

00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:02.679
 people around

00:47:02.679 --> 00:47:03.039
 you.

00:47:03.759 --> 00:47:05.039
 And if

00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:05.799
 every one

00:47:05.799 --> 00:47:06.379
 of us can

00:47:06.379 --> 00:47:08.440
 truly experience

00:47:08.440 --> 00:47:08.819
 this,

00:47:09.639 --> 00:47:11.099
 we may

00:47:11.099 --> 00:47:12.159
 truly transform

00:47:12.159 --> 00:47:12.980
 this community,

00:47:13.480 --> 00:47:14.339
 this city.

00:47:14.340 --> 00:47:15.340
 people will

00:47:15.340 --> 00:47:17.320
 no longer

00:47:17.320 --> 00:47:18.539
 pointing their

00:47:18.539 --> 00:47:19.019
 finger to

00:47:19.019 --> 00:47:19.740
 other people,

00:47:20.200 --> 00:47:21.980
 blaming other

00:47:21.980 --> 00:47:22.480
 people's

00:47:22.480 --> 00:47:23.260
 responsibility,

00:47:24.059 --> 00:47:24.880
 or just

00:47:24.880 --> 00:47:25.940
 care about

00:47:25.940 --> 00:47:27.180
 themselves,

00:47:27.720 --> 00:47:28.480
 don't love

00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:29.120
 each other,

00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:30.160
 don't want to

00:47:30.160 --> 00:47:30.620
 connect with

00:47:30.620 --> 00:47:31.180
 each other.

00:47:31.600 --> 00:47:32.500
 It is God's

00:47:32.500 --> 00:47:33.660
 grace who

00:47:33.660 --> 00:47:34.760
 divides this

00:47:34.760 --> 00:47:35.500
 wall of

00:47:35.500 --> 00:47:36.140
 hostility.

00:47:36.900 --> 00:47:37.720
 It is God's

00:47:37.720 --> 00:47:38.320
 grace, it is

00:47:38.320 --> 00:47:39.300
 Jesus' love

00:47:39.300 --> 00:47:40.140
 bringing us

00:47:40.140 --> 00:47:40.640
 together.

00:47:40.640 --> 00:47:41.500
 We can

00:47:41.500 --> 00:47:42.460
 humbly

00:47:42.460 --> 00:47:44.360
 confess to

00:47:44.360 --> 00:47:45.079
 each other,

00:47:45.500 --> 00:47:46.280
 ask forgiveness

00:47:46.280 --> 00:47:47.039
 from each

00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:47.480
 other.

00:47:47.860 --> 00:47:48.240
 We can

00:47:48.240 --> 00:47:49.300
 love and

00:47:49.300 --> 00:47:50.280
 walk with

00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:51.099
 each other

00:47:51.099 --> 00:47:52.500
 by the

00:47:52.500 --> 00:47:52.980
 grace of

00:47:52.980 --> 00:47:53.320
 God.

00:47:53.960 --> 00:47:54.519
 I truly,

00:47:54.760 --> 00:47:55.400
 truly want

00:47:55.400 --> 00:47:56.940
 to share

00:47:56.940 --> 00:47:57.559
 my experience

00:47:57.559 --> 00:47:58.119
 so that you

00:47:58.119 --> 00:47:58.659
 may also

00:47:58.659 --> 00:47:59.740
 experience this.

00:48:00.380 --> 00:48:01.039
 If it is

00:48:01.039 --> 00:48:01.920
 your situation

00:48:01.920 --> 00:48:03.260
 today, no

00:48:03.260 --> 00:48:03.860
 matter you

00:48:03.860 --> 00:48:04.699
 are ashamed

00:48:04.699 --> 00:48:05.139
 to ask

00:48:05.139 --> 00:48:05.619
 forgiveness,

00:48:05.900 --> 00:48:06.300
 or you

00:48:06.300 --> 00:48:06.800
 are hard to

00:48:06.800 --> 00:48:07.340
 forgive some

00:48:07.340 --> 00:48:08.519
 people, or

00:48:08.519 --> 00:48:09.059
 you are hard

00:48:09.059 --> 00:48:09.539
 to love

00:48:09.539 --> 00:48:10.220
 someone very

00:48:10.220 --> 00:48:10.800
 different from

00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:12.039
 you, I

00:48:12.039 --> 00:48:12.679
 ask God

00:48:12.679 --> 00:48:14.059
 here, his

00:48:14.059 --> 00:48:14.940
 Holy Spirit,

00:48:15.539 --> 00:48:16.279
 pour the

00:48:16.279 --> 00:48:16.800
 love of

00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:18.019
 God, the

00:48:18.019 --> 00:48:18.440
 love of

00:48:18.440 --> 00:48:19.619
 Jesus into

00:48:19.619 --> 00:48:20.420
 our heart,

00:48:20.739 --> 00:48:21.179
 that we may

00:48:21.179 --> 00:48:21.599
 have the

00:48:21.599 --> 00:48:22.739
 strength, have

00:48:22.739 --> 00:48:23.639
 the love

00:48:23.639 --> 00:48:24.759
 from God

00:48:24.759 --> 00:48:25.639
 truly to

00:48:25.639 --> 00:48:26.900
 forgive, to

00:48:26.900 --> 00:48:27.300
 ask for

00:48:27.300 --> 00:48:28.559
 forgiveness, to

00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:29.699
 truly love,

00:48:30.219 --> 00:48:31.739
 not by our

00:48:31.739 --> 00:48:32.619
 judgment or

00:48:32.619 --> 00:48:33.259
 by our

00:48:33.259 --> 00:48:33.679
 standard.

00:48:35.059 --> 00:48:35.539
 I truly

00:48:35.539 --> 00:48:36.420
 hope God

00:48:36.420 --> 00:48:36.759
 may do

00:48:36.759 --> 00:48:36.920
 that.

00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:37.500
 Let us

00:48:37.500 --> 00:48:37.820
 pray.

00:48:38.119 --> 00:48:38.440
 Let us

00:48:38.440 --> 00:48:38.639
 pray.

00:48:38.639 --> 00:48:39.679
 Amen.

00:48:42.039 --> 00:48:44.539
 Lord Jesus,

00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:45.860
 we are all

00:48:45.860 --> 00:48:46.639
 broken people.

00:48:49.519 --> 00:48:50.539
 We cannot

00:48:50.539 --> 00:48:51.480
 boast anything

00:48:51.480 --> 00:48:52.139
 in front of

00:48:52.139 --> 00:48:52.420
 you.

00:48:58.500 --> 00:48:59.599
 We are so

00:48:59.599 --> 00:49:00.000
 fragile.

00:49:01.179 --> 00:49:02.199
 We have our

00:49:02.199 --> 00:49:03.519
 limit, and

00:49:03.519 --> 00:49:04.880
 also we

00:49:04.880 --> 00:49:05.380
 have our

00:49:05.380 --> 00:49:06.480
 dark side.

00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:09.059
 We cannot

00:49:09.059 --> 00:49:09.840
 save by

00:49:09.840 --> 00:49:10.460
 ourselves,

00:49:10.460 --> 00:49:12.260
 and also

00:49:12.260 --> 00:49:12.880
 we hurt

00:49:12.880 --> 00:49:13.900
 each other.

00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:15.480
 We hurt

00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:16.659
 people, people

00:49:16.659 --> 00:49:18.960
 hurt us, and

00:49:18.960 --> 00:49:19.599
 this hurt

00:49:19.599 --> 00:49:20.820
 divided us.

00:49:22.420 --> 00:49:22.900
 But Jesus,

00:49:23.099 --> 00:49:23.619
 thank you.

00:49:23.980 --> 00:49:24.579
 You died

00:49:24.579 --> 00:49:25.659
 for our

00:49:25.659 --> 00:49:25.960
 sin.

00:49:26.720 --> 00:49:27.139
 You've

00:49:27.139 --> 00:49:27.920
 already paid

00:49:27.920 --> 00:49:28.400
 the debt.

00:49:29.360 --> 00:49:29.720
 You've

00:49:29.720 --> 00:49:30.119
 already

00:49:30.119 --> 00:49:31.679
 canceled our

00:49:31.679 --> 00:49:33.059
 punishment on

00:49:33.059 --> 00:49:33.539
 the cross.

00:49:33.539 --> 00:49:35.139
 because we

00:49:35.139 --> 00:49:35.880
 receive in

00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:36.980
 you our

00:49:36.980 --> 00:49:37.739
 sin transferred

00:49:37.739 --> 00:49:38.480
 to you, and

00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:39.119
 your righteousness

00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:39.820
 transferred to

00:49:39.820 --> 00:49:40.179
 us.

00:49:40.599 --> 00:49:41.440
 We become

00:49:41.440 --> 00:49:42.380
 children of

00:49:42.380 --> 00:49:42.659
 God.

00:49:43.400 --> 00:49:44.519
 We join

00:49:44.519 --> 00:49:45.300
 your family.

00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:48.400
 We need

00:49:48.400 --> 00:49:49.179
 not any

00:49:49.179 --> 00:49:49.679
 other

00:49:49.679 --> 00:49:51.619
 outside thing

00:49:51.619 --> 00:49:52.400
 to judge

00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:53.380
 who we

00:49:53.380 --> 00:49:53.739
 are.

00:49:55.239 --> 00:49:55.539
 In

00:49:55.539 --> 00:49:56.519
 Jesus Christ,

00:49:56.599 --> 00:49:57.360

 We are all

00:49:59.539 --> 00:50:00.159
 your children,

00:50:00.779 --> 00:50:02.079
 and we can

00:50:02.659 --> 00:50:04.219

00:50:05.019 --> 00:50:07.139

00:50:07.139 --> 00:50:07.719
 standard to

00:50:07.719 --> 00:50:08.739
 judge who

00:50:08.739 --> 00:50:09.440
 is deserved,

00:50:09.599 --> 00:50:10.179
 who is not

00:50:10.179 --> 00:50:10.639
 deserved.

 Everyone in
