WEBVTT

00:00:00.900 --> 00:00:02.200
 Good morning, everybody.

00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:04.740
 Good morning.

00:00:05.020 --> 00:00:06.560
 Okay, that's better.

00:00:07.960 --> 00:00:09.980
 If you don't know me, I'm Bernard,

00:00:10.500 --> 00:00:13.759
 and I'm one of the members at Watermark.

00:00:13.980 --> 00:00:15.339
 I'm not on the staff,

00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.379
 so you are unfortunately having amateur night,

00:00:19.240 --> 00:00:20.420
 attending amateur night.

00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:22.719
 What we're going to talk about today, though,

00:00:22.820 --> 00:00:24.140
 is we're rounding out,

00:00:24.280 --> 00:00:25.879
 we've been going through for the last month,

00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:28.780
 we're rounding out a series on the Holy Spirit.

00:00:28.780 --> 00:00:29.300
 Okay.

00:00:29.300 --> 00:00:31.460
 And today we're going to talk about

00:00:31.460 --> 00:00:33.620
 the empowering Holy Spirit.

00:00:34.060 --> 00:00:34.219
 Okay.

00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:37.060
 So what does it mean to be filled,

00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:39.939
 and what does it mean to be empowered by the Holy Spirit?

00:00:40.120 --> 00:00:40.359
 Okay.

00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:42.539
 So we're going to look at this topic,

00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:44.620
 we're going to tackle it under three headings.

00:00:45.480 --> 00:00:48.280
 The need for the Holy Spirit in 2017.

00:00:49.060 --> 00:00:49.299
 Right?

00:00:49.480 --> 00:00:50.920
 Why do we need the Holy Spirit?

00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:56.159
 The signs of what a Spirit-filled life looks like in 2017.

00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:58.939
 And how.

00:00:58.939 --> 00:01:00.279
 The last is the application.

00:01:00.539 --> 00:01:03.419
 How can you be filled with the Holy Spirit?

00:01:04.099 --> 00:01:04.299
 Okay.

00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:06.359
 So let's start with the beginning.

00:01:06.899 --> 00:01:08.799
 The need for the Holy Spirit in 2017.

00:01:09.019 --> 00:01:12.620
 Why do we even need the Holy Spirit in 2017?

00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:13.579
 Right?

00:01:13.579 --> 00:01:16.780
 We can meet everybody we want on Facebook and LinkedIn.

00:01:17.219 --> 00:01:17.519
 Right?

00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:22.420
 We can get all our answers that we ever want to ask on Google.

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.939
 And we can buy anything we want on Amazon or Taobao.

00:01:28.420 --> 00:01:28.679
 Right?

00:01:28.680 --> 00:01:32.120
 So why do we need the Holy Spirit?

00:01:32.340 --> 00:01:36.760
 At no time in history are we more connected to one another

00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:41.120
 through messaging apps like WhatsApp and WeChat and Snapchat.

00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:42.020
 Right?

00:01:43.380 --> 00:01:47.300
 Last, just three days ago on Friday in the New York Times,

00:01:48.020 --> 00:01:51.000
 David Brooks, one of the journalists in the New York Times,

00:01:51.580 --> 00:01:52.860
 had an article called,

00:01:53.740 --> 00:01:55.320
 Just How Evil Is Tech?

00:01:56.340 --> 00:01:56.600
 Okay?

00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:58.039
 Just How Evil Is Tech?

00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:00.819
 By the way, I'm in the technology industry,

00:02:01.019 --> 00:02:06.339
 so this could be a little contrarian when you listen to me.

00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:08.579
 But he said in it,

00:02:08.979 --> 00:02:11.519
 we have more control over our social interactions,

00:02:12.060 --> 00:02:14.180
 but it leads to thinner interactions.

00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:14.919
 Okay?

00:02:15.019 --> 00:02:15.519
 Technology.

00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:17.939
 We have more control over our social interaction,

00:02:18.060 --> 00:02:19.759
 but it leads to thinner interactions.

00:02:20.079 --> 00:02:22.379
 And he gave some scary statistics,

00:02:22.859 --> 00:02:24.579
 and I want to share those with you.

00:02:24.580 --> 00:02:25.840
 He said,

00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:28.540
 A study shows that 13-year-olds

00:02:28.540 --> 00:02:30.860
 who spend 10 hours plus a week,

00:02:30.940 --> 00:02:31.660
 a week, okay?

00:02:31.720 --> 00:02:32.220
 Not a day.

00:02:32.340 --> 00:02:34.660
 10 hours plus a week on social media

00:02:34.660 --> 00:02:38.000
 increase their risk of depression by 27%.

00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:38.720
 Okay?

00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:42.300
 10 hours is actually not that much a week on social media.

00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:43.880
 This is for 13-year-olds.

00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:46.660
 Teens who spend three or more hours a day

00:02:46.660 --> 00:02:48.020
 on electronic devices,

00:02:48.020 --> 00:02:49.020
 smartphones,

00:02:49.480 --> 00:02:50.260
 you know, tablets,

00:02:50.980 --> 00:02:56.040
 are 35% more likely to have risk of suicide-like making plans

00:02:56.040 --> 00:02:57.000
 on how to do it.

00:02:57.600 --> 00:02:59.600
 Girls especially are hard hit

00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:03.439
 and have experienced a 50% increase in depression symptoms

00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:06.520
 since the advent of mobile technology.

00:03:07.260 --> 00:03:08.260
 These statistics

00:03:08.260 --> 00:03:11.040
 are showing us one thing,

00:03:11.140 --> 00:03:11.780
 that you know what?

00:03:11.780 --> 00:03:16.240
 Our technology is not the solution to loneliness,

00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:18.259
 but on the contrary,

00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:18.860
 it's actually,

00:03:19.340 --> 00:03:20.740
 it amplifies our loneliness.

00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:21.900
 Okay?

00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:23.219
 So on the knowledge front,

00:03:23.300 --> 00:03:24.020
 and I talked about,

00:03:24.099 --> 00:03:24.219
 you know,

00:03:24.259 --> 00:03:26.000
 we can get all our answers from Google, right?

00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:26.659
 I mean,

00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:27.360
 well,

00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:29.240
 there's probably one of you out there using Bing,

00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:30.939
 so using Yahoo,

00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:31.860
 diehards,

00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:34.520
 but most of us are probably Google people.

00:03:35.060 --> 00:03:37.600
 So you can get everything you want to know on Google,

00:03:37.740 --> 00:03:40.520
 and then if you want to know a little bit more on Wikipedia,

00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:42.360
 and if you're challenging,

00:03:43.160 --> 00:03:43.320
 you know,

00:03:43.420 --> 00:03:45.000
 you're reading challenge,

00:03:45.300 --> 00:03:46.320
 you probably use YouTube,

00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:47.040
 right?

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:50.140
 But are we better informed?

00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:51.620
 You know,

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:53.320
 as a society,

00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:53.860
 as a group,

00:03:53.900 --> 00:03:54.379
 as an individual,

00:03:54.460 --> 00:03:55.340
 are we better informed?

00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:56.760
 Are we more educated?

00:03:57.640 --> 00:03:58.840
 Or are we just more confused?

00:04:00.420 --> 00:04:00.660
 And,

00:04:00.660 --> 00:04:01.260
 and is,

00:04:01.939 --> 00:04:02.500
 you know,

00:04:02.580 --> 00:04:02.780
 there's,

00:04:02.780 --> 00:04:04.240
 there's a lot of talk recently

00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:06.480
 that hack is actually

00:04:06.480 --> 00:04:08.780
 emphasizing our bias,

00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:10.939
 and there's a lot of talk about

00:04:10.939 --> 00:04:12.820
 this echo chamber effect.

00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:13.200
 You know,

00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:15.260
 you only Google the things that agree with you.

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:16.340
 So,

00:04:17.980 --> 00:04:18.900
 I think one of the keys,

00:04:19.060 --> 00:04:19.420
 the other,

00:04:19.540 --> 00:04:21.360
 the other thing that's just come up recently

00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:22.139
 is,

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:23.560
 is what is fake and what is real,

00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:24.360
 right?

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:24.600
 I mean,

00:04:24.620 --> 00:04:25.939
 you saw in the US elections,

00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:26.740
 you know,

00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:29.220
 there's a lot of talk about fake news and all that,

00:04:29.220 --> 00:04:29.519
 and,

00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:31.960
 and I'll just spend a little bit of talk about that.

00:04:32.220 --> 00:04:32.319
 But,

00:04:32.400 --> 00:04:32.519
 you know,

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:33.000
 Paul,

00:04:33.259 --> 00:04:33.879
 funny enough,

00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:34.939
 Paul,

00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.040
 writing to the Ephesians,

00:04:37.280 --> 00:04:38.480
 had some advice for us.

00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:39.439
 Okay?

00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:40.240
 Now,

00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:41.939
 the city of Ephesus

00:04:41.939 --> 00:04:42.639
 in,

00:04:42.780 --> 00:04:43.759
 in the first century,

00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:46.420
 is actually not that different to Hong Kong.

00:04:46.860 --> 00:04:49.860
 It was a kind of a commerce hub for the Roman Empire.

00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:51.379
 It was a trading center.

00:04:51.939 --> 00:04:53.939
 Not so different to Hong Kong being,

00:04:54.280 --> 00:04:54.560
 you know,

00:04:54.660 --> 00:04:57.000
 a commerce and trading center for China,

00:04:57.139 --> 00:04:57.379
 right?

00:04:57.379 --> 00:04:57.420
 Right?

00:04:57.819 --> 00:04:58.139
 So,

00:04:58.719 --> 00:05:02.719
 the Christians at Ephesus was also being overwhelmed by their,

00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:04.399
 the demands on their modern world,

00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:05.839
 their first century modern world,

00:05:05.899 --> 00:05:06.100
 right?

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:06.899
 So,

00:05:07.620 --> 00:05:07.860
 what,

00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:08.040
 what,

00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:08.259
 what,

00:05:08.259 --> 00:05:08.319
 what,

00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:08.360
 what,

00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:08.420
 what,

00:05:08.420 --> 00:05:08.500
 what,

00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:08.659
 and,

00:05:08.659 --> 00:05:13.600
 and they too wanted to find a way to get back a bit of control into their lives.

00:05:13.860 --> 00:05:14.439
 They feel like they're,

00:05:14.699 --> 00:05:14.959
 they're,

00:05:15.100 --> 00:05:15.279
 you know,

00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:16.819
 Ephesians are feeling like,

00:05:17.119 --> 00:05:17.479
 you know what,

00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:19.279
 my life is kind of spinning out of control.

00:05:20.059 --> 00:05:20.139
 And,

00:05:20.139 --> 00:05:20.459
 and,

00:05:20.459 --> 00:05:20.799
 and,

00:05:20.799 --> 00:05:21.619
 and Paul's,

00:05:21.619 --> 00:05:23.000
 Paul's writing a letter to say,

00:05:23.359 --> 00:05:23.500
 hey,

00:05:23.559 --> 00:05:25.839
 here's a way you get a bit of control into your life.

00:05:26.039 --> 00:05:26.339
 Okay?

00:05:26.779 --> 00:05:27.099
 And,

00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:28.019
 what he said is,

00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:30.019
 do not get drunk with wine,

00:05:30.559 --> 00:05:31.479
 for that is the poetry,

00:05:31.939 --> 00:05:33.359
 but to be filled by the Spirit.

00:05:34.359 --> 00:05:34.619
 So,

00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:40.079
 Paul's advice to the Ephesians on how to cope with the challenges they have in their lives

00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:41.679
 is to be filled with the Spirit.

00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:42.479
 And he,

00:05:42.719 --> 00:05:45.259
 and he explains what this filling of the Spirit is.

00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:48.479
 what it means by contrasting it with,

00:05:48.479 --> 00:05:51.500
 with the experience of being drunk on wine.

00:05:51.919 --> 00:05:52.139
 Okay?

00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:55.459
 I know none of you have ever been drunk in your life.

00:05:55.919 --> 00:05:58.000
 None of you have had one too many.

00:05:58.339 --> 00:05:58.539
 So,

00:05:58.599 --> 00:06:03.339
 you just got to stick with me and think through this in a purely theoretical sense.

00:06:03.419 --> 00:06:03.639
 Okay?

00:06:03.719 --> 00:06:04.759
 Because experientially,

00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:06.339
 it is all foreign to you.

00:06:06.799 --> 00:06:07.000
 Okay?

00:06:07.359 --> 00:06:07.639
 So,

00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:09.519
 what he said is,

00:06:09.579 --> 00:06:09.699
 you know,

00:06:09.739 --> 00:06:09.899
 one,

00:06:09.979 --> 00:06:14.879
 one of the reasons people drink a bit too much is they're having challenges in their lives.

00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:15.759
 Okay?

00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:17.059
 If you're having challenges,

00:06:17.219 --> 00:06:18.419
 you've got a horrible boss,

00:06:18.579 --> 00:06:20.579
 and you've got a horrible lecturer,

00:06:20.699 --> 00:06:21.519
 or something like that.

00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:22.599
 Well,

00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:23.059
 maybe not,

00:06:23.219 --> 00:06:23.459
 you know,

00:06:24.179 --> 00:06:25.699
 you want to,

00:06:25.739 --> 00:06:26.059
 like,

00:06:26.179 --> 00:06:27.099
 have extra bear.

00:06:27.379 --> 00:06:27.799
 Why?

00:06:28.059 --> 00:06:31.539
 Because you want to kind of forget about the challenges that you're facing.

00:06:31.819 --> 00:06:32.019
 Right?

00:06:32.019 --> 00:06:32.799
 So,

00:06:33.019 --> 00:06:35.019
 what alcohol does,

00:06:35.180 --> 00:06:35.779
 physiologically,

00:06:36.159 --> 00:06:37.719
 is it's a depressant.

00:06:38.599 --> 00:06:38.719
 Okay?

00:06:38.799 --> 00:06:40.019
 It kind of lowers,

00:06:40.500 --> 00:06:43.359
 it lowers the tempo in your life.

00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:48.519
 It reduces your ability to tell what is real and what is not.

00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:49.399
 Okay?

00:06:50.180 --> 00:06:51.699
 It lowers your inhibitions.

00:06:52.379 --> 00:06:52.500
 So,

00:06:52.599 --> 00:06:52.779
 you know,

00:06:52.859 --> 00:06:54.319
 people who are drunk love,

00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:58.120
 believe that they all should be on America's Got Talent.

00:06:58.720 --> 00:06:59.000
 Right?

00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:00.220
 They love to sing,

00:07:00.379 --> 00:07:00.639
 and,

00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:00.959
 you know,

00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:04.079
 and they have this perception that they can do anything they want.

00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:04.439
 Like,

00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:05.480
 jump,

00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:06.079
 you know,

00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:07.040
 a thousand,

00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:07.480
 you know,

00:07:07.500 --> 00:07:08.819
 jump up a building like Superman.

00:07:09.060 --> 00:07:10.459
 And you see when people are drunk,

00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:10.819
 they are,

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:12.399
 they're very bold.

00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:13.139
 Okay?

00:07:13.660 --> 00:07:16.220
 But they have no perception of what is real,

00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:17.980
 and their own abilities.

00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:19.000
 So,

00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:21.939
 but the opposite of that is spirit-filled,

00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:22.600
 Paul said.

00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:23.120
 So,

00:07:23.259 --> 00:07:24.620
 what a spirit-filled gives you?

00:07:25.060 --> 00:07:25.819
 Being spirit-filled,

00:07:25.819 --> 00:07:27.560
 what Paul is saying is,

00:07:27.620 --> 00:07:28.519
 it gives you clarity.

00:07:28.899 --> 00:07:31.219
 It gives you a higher perception of reality.

00:07:31.860 --> 00:07:33.420
 And it enhances your control.

00:07:34.159 --> 00:07:34.300
 Okay?

00:07:34.980 --> 00:07:35.240
 So,

00:07:35.980 --> 00:07:39.439
 what it means to be spirit-filled is you see more of reality.

00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:39.920
 Okay?

00:07:40.100 --> 00:07:42.159
 Not just the reality before your eyes.

00:07:42.339 --> 00:07:42.579
 Okay?

00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:44.159
 I'm a little bit older than a lot of you.

00:07:44.539 --> 00:07:44.719
 So,

00:07:44.860 --> 00:07:47.039
 one thing you learn as you get older is,

00:07:47.659 --> 00:07:50.579
 reality is not just what is before your eyes,

00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:52.519
 but the context of what is happening.

00:07:53.459 --> 00:07:53.659
 Okay?

00:07:53.719 --> 00:07:55.120
 The context of what is happening.

00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:55.480
 So,

00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:58.399
 context is as important to tell what is reality

00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:00.259
 than exactly just what you see.

00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:00.600
 So,

00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:02.579
 I'll talk a little bit more about that.

00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:03.379
 And then,

00:08:03.819 --> 00:08:04.120
 to get,

00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:06.000
 you have more control over your life.

00:08:06.100 --> 00:08:06.459
 I don't know,

00:08:06.899 --> 00:08:08.060
 can I ask a show of hands,

00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:09.800
 who has more to do?

00:08:10.300 --> 00:08:10.459
 Wait,

00:08:10.780 --> 00:08:13.540
 I have a problem finishing off my to-do list.

00:08:13.939 --> 00:08:14.199
 Okay?

00:08:14.840 --> 00:08:16.319
 Both at work and at home.

00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:17.819
 By the end of the day,

00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.000
 I always have things left in my to-do list.

00:08:20.500 --> 00:08:21.600
 Can I just have a show of hands?

00:08:21.819 --> 00:08:22.819
 Who has a problem,

00:08:22.819 --> 00:08:24.420
 who has more to do in a day

00:08:24.420 --> 00:08:26.319
 than they can get done?

00:08:27.099 --> 00:08:27.319
 Anybody?

00:08:28.099 --> 00:08:28.459
 Okay.

00:08:28.899 --> 00:08:29.620
 That's pretty,

00:08:29.719 --> 00:08:30.360
 pretty good,

00:08:30.579 --> 00:08:30.800
 right?

00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:31.180
 I mean,

00:08:31.300 --> 00:08:31.639
 that's,

00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:33.179
 it's a common problem.

00:08:33.539 --> 00:08:35.659
 We all have more to do in a day

00:08:35.659 --> 00:08:37.319
 than we have time to do.

00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:38.980
 Here's the problem.

00:08:38.980 --> 00:08:42.139
 If you believe God,

00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:43.759
 it's all-loving,

00:08:44.220 --> 00:08:45.220
 all-powerful,

00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:46.600
 and all-knowing God,

00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:50.440
 He would not give you more things to do in a day

00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:51.480
 than you can do.

00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:53.180
 Agree with that?

00:08:53.539 --> 00:08:54.860
 If God is all-powerful,

00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:56.039
 so He can control everything,

00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:57.060
 all-knowing,

00:08:57.440 --> 00:08:58.259
 and all-loving,

00:08:58.539 --> 00:09:01.139
 He would not give you more to do in a day

00:09:01.139 --> 00:09:02.080
 than you can get done.

00:09:02.659 --> 00:09:04.200
 He would not set you up to fail,

00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:04.840
 in other words,

00:09:05.220 --> 00:09:05.440
 right?

00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:06.220
 Because He's all-loving.

00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:07.300
 So just,

00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:07.680
 I'm just,

00:09:07.780 --> 00:09:08.980
 just logic here,

00:09:09.040 --> 00:09:09.240
 okay?

00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:10.040
 So,

00:09:10.260 --> 00:09:11.020
 but the fact is,

00:09:11.260 --> 00:09:13.220
 all of us have more to do in a day

00:09:13.220 --> 00:09:14.700
 than we can deal with.

00:09:15.140 --> 00:09:15.960
 So what does that mean?

00:09:16.580 --> 00:09:16.840
 So,

00:09:17.560 --> 00:09:18.480
 logically speaking,

00:09:18.740 --> 00:09:19.900
 what it's saying is,

00:09:20.640 --> 00:09:23.180
 there are things that we are trying to do

00:09:23.180 --> 00:09:24.860
 and we're striving for in a day

00:09:24.860 --> 00:09:26.620
 that God did not put in our day

00:09:26.620 --> 00:09:28.240
 and are not good for us.

00:09:28.700 --> 00:09:31.760
 But we are working really hard

00:09:31.760 --> 00:09:33.560
 to try to get those things done,

00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:35.939
 and it's causing stress in all our lives,

00:09:36.539 --> 00:09:36.779
 okay?

00:09:37.419 --> 00:09:38.919
 Wouldn't you like the wisdom

00:09:38.919 --> 00:09:40.419
 and the discernment

00:09:40.419 --> 00:09:41.479
 to tell the difference

00:09:41.479 --> 00:09:43.099
 of what are the things

00:09:43.099 --> 00:09:44.399
 that are good for you

00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:46.699
 that God wants you to do

00:09:46.699 --> 00:09:47.819
 and what are the things

00:09:47.819 --> 00:09:49.379
 that are just urgent

00:09:49.379 --> 00:09:50.659
 but not important?

00:09:51.259 --> 00:09:51.500
 You know,

00:09:51.619 --> 00:09:52.479
 we've got to separate

00:09:52.479 --> 00:09:54.339
 the urgent but not important.

00:09:54.340 --> 00:09:54.660
 So,

00:09:55.540 --> 00:09:56.700
 what Paul is saying

00:09:56.700 --> 00:09:57.720
 to Ephesians is,

00:09:58.480 --> 00:09:58.660
 guys,

00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:00.360
 I've got some advice for you.

00:10:01.700 --> 00:10:03.420
 The key to discerning

00:10:03.420 --> 00:10:04.660
 what is the difference

00:10:04.660 --> 00:10:06.040
 between urgent and important

00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:08.139
 is actually to be spirit-filled.

00:10:08.840 --> 00:10:09.080
 Now,

00:10:10.160 --> 00:10:11.180
 all of us

00:10:11.180 --> 00:10:13.000
 feel overwhelmed.

00:10:13.379 --> 00:10:13.860
 I don't know.

00:10:13.980 --> 00:10:15.160
 I'm feeling more overwhelmed

00:10:15.160 --> 00:10:15.580
 this year

00:10:15.580 --> 00:10:16.560
 than I did last year

00:10:16.560 --> 00:10:18.420
 than I did the year before that.

00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:20.259
 And there's a,

00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.280
 there was a really good book

00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:23.919
 early on this year

00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:25.159
 written by

00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:26.759
 another New York Times journalist,

00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:27.579
 Thomas Freeman,

00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:28.319
 okay?

00:10:28.419 --> 00:10:28.980
 Thomas Freeman,

00:10:29.620 --> 00:10:31.319
 long-time New York Times journalist,

00:10:31.439 --> 00:10:32.799
 writes about big issues

00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:35.220
 and the book is called

00:10:35.220 --> 00:10:37.059
 Thank You for Being Late,

00:10:38.100 --> 00:10:38.419
 okay?

00:10:38.899 --> 00:10:39.860
 And the whole reason for,

00:10:40.299 --> 00:10:41.259
 it's a strange name,

00:10:41.319 --> 00:10:42.100
 Thank You for Being Late.

00:10:42.220 --> 00:10:42.779
 Why is it called

00:10:42.779 --> 00:10:43.659
 Thank You for Being Late?

00:10:43.980 --> 00:10:44.220
 Well,

00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:45.199
 the third song

00:10:45.199 --> 00:10:46.579
 we just sang before

00:10:46.579 --> 00:10:47.360
 said,

00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:48.539
 God is in the waiting.

00:10:49.220 --> 00:10:49.439
 You know,

00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:51.839
 if I had a postscript

00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:52.540
 to that book,

00:10:52.660 --> 00:10:52.980
 it'll be,

00:10:53.139 --> 00:10:54.200
 Thank You for Being Late,

00:10:54.379 --> 00:10:55.180
 God is in the waiting.

00:10:55.700 --> 00:10:56.360
 We all need,

00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:57.540
 what he's arguing is

00:10:57.540 --> 00:10:58.700
 we need to take some time

00:10:58.700 --> 00:10:59.639
 to push pause

00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:00.700
 on our lives

00:11:00.700 --> 00:11:01.920
 and hear

00:11:01.920 --> 00:11:03.240
 what,

00:11:03.500 --> 00:11:04.720
 hear the voice

00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:05.340
 in our waiting.

00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:05.780
 Now,

00:11:05.820 --> 00:11:07.060
 he's not a Christian writer.

00:11:07.379 --> 00:11:07.560
 So,

00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:08.399
 what he's saying is

00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:09.240
 the reason why

00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:10.600
 we're all so frazzled

00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:12.740
 is the rate of change

00:11:12.740 --> 00:11:13.960
 caused by three things,

00:11:14.280 --> 00:11:14.840
 technology,

00:11:15.160 --> 00:11:15.680
 globalization,

00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:17.879
 and environmental impact

00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:19.540
 is accelerating,

00:11:20.019 --> 00:11:20.240
 okay,

00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:20.980
 exponentially.

00:11:20.980 --> 00:11:22.759
 the changes in our lives

00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:23.740
 to the point that

00:11:23.740 --> 00:11:25.320
 this is the first time

00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:26.139
 in human history

00:11:26.139 --> 00:11:27.840
 that the change

00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:29.120
 that we're experiencing,

00:11:29.500 --> 00:11:30.539
 it's outpacing

00:11:30.539 --> 00:11:31.539
 our ability

00:11:31.539 --> 00:11:32.720
 to adapt to the change,

00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:34.120
 okay?

00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:34.980
 So,

00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:36.039
 the change

00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:36.779
 that is happening

00:11:36.779 --> 00:11:37.399
 around us

00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:38.539
 caused by globalization,

00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:40.019
 technology,

00:11:40.379 --> 00:11:41.560
 and environmental changes

00:11:41.560 --> 00:11:42.840
 is outpacing

00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:43.960
 our ability,

00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:45.279
 our human ability

00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:46.539
 to adapt to the change.

00:11:46.539 --> 00:11:47.339
 So,

00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:48.879
 that's why we're frazzled.

00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:50.459
 This kind of change

00:11:50.459 --> 00:11:51.099
 kind of happened,

00:11:51.259 --> 00:11:52.199
 started to happen,

00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:52.740
 he argued,

00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:53.699
 in the 70s,

00:11:53.959 --> 00:11:54.199
 okay?

00:11:54.659 --> 00:11:54.860
 Now,

00:11:54.939 --> 00:11:56.399
 in the 80s and 90s,

00:11:56.860 --> 00:11:57.379
 we had,

00:11:57.740 --> 00:11:58.439
 our solution

00:11:58.439 --> 00:11:59.740
 to adapting to change

00:11:59.740 --> 00:12:00.899
 was this concept

00:12:00.899 --> 00:12:01.799
 of time management.

00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:03.839
 There were all sorts of,

00:12:04.259 --> 00:12:04.439
 you know,

00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:05.639
 some of you are nodding your head,

00:12:05.740 --> 00:12:06.379
 some of you are like,

00:12:06.419 --> 00:12:07.360
 I wasn't even born yet.

00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:08.019
 Anyway,

00:12:09.059 --> 00:12:09.980
 there were all sorts

00:12:09.980 --> 00:12:10.679
 of companies

00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:11.519
 that sprung up

00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:12.359
 that gave,

00:12:12.579 --> 00:12:13.479
 that made all these

00:12:13.479 --> 00:12:14.379
 specialized,

00:12:14.539 --> 00:12:16.039
 patented diaries,

00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:17.000
 you know,

00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:17.599
 like,

00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:19.199
 like Franklin Covey

00:12:19.199 --> 00:12:20.779
 and Philofax,

00:12:21.059 --> 00:12:21.659
 and you pay

00:12:21.659 --> 00:12:23.000
 hundreds of dollars

00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:23.819
 for these diaries

00:12:23.819 --> 00:12:25.539
 for a very specialized

00:12:25.539 --> 00:12:26.579
 patented process

00:12:26.579 --> 00:12:27.639
 of how to do

00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:28.579
 your to-do list better,

00:12:29.439 --> 00:12:30.059
 and how do you

00:12:30.059 --> 00:12:31.159
 check off your to-do list.

00:12:31.539 --> 00:12:31.679
 So,

00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:33.019
 our solution

00:12:33.019 --> 00:12:34.239
 in the 80s and 90s

00:12:34.239 --> 00:12:34.740
 to this

00:12:34.740 --> 00:12:37.179
 faster pace of change

00:12:37.179 --> 00:12:38.379
 was to write

00:12:38.379 --> 00:12:39.379
 better to-do lists.

00:12:39.379 --> 00:12:41.120
 That didn't really work,

00:12:41.259 --> 00:12:41.539
 okay?

00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:42.340
 So,

00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:44.559
 in the late 90s,

00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:46.299
 technology started creeping in,

00:12:46.700 --> 00:12:47.779
 and companies like,

00:12:48.419 --> 00:12:48.779
 you know,

00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:49.539
 Palm,

00:12:49.659 --> 00:12:50.320
 Palm Pilot,

00:12:50.740 --> 00:12:50.919
 you know,

00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:52.000
 most of you are like,

00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:53.500
 what's Palm Pilot,

00:12:54.100 --> 00:12:54.419
 okay?

00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:55.840
 And BlackBerry,

00:12:56.500 --> 00:12:56.679
 you know,

00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:57.240
 most,

00:12:57.419 --> 00:12:58.500
 some of you may have heard

00:12:58.500 --> 00:12:59.080
 of BlackBerry,

00:12:59.580 --> 00:12:59.779
 but,

00:13:00.179 --> 00:13:00.659
 you know,

00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:02.519
 what was kind of created

00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:03.659
 in the late 90s,

00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:06.139
 and that wasn't going

00:13:06.139 --> 00:13:07.240
 to solve our problems,

00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:07.720
 okay?

00:13:09.379 --> 00:13:10.360
 I can see a lot

00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:11.700
 of blank faces out there,

00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:12.600
 especially when I mention

00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:13.159
 Palm Pilot.

00:13:13.580 --> 00:13:14.539
 Half of you don't know

00:13:14.539 --> 00:13:15.039
 what it is,

00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:16.340
 the other half is nodding,

00:13:16.419 --> 00:13:18.019
 it's like having flashbacks

00:13:18.019 --> 00:13:19.320
 of holding your palm trio,

00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:20.960
 and listening to

00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:21.960
 Britney Spears,

00:13:22.179 --> 00:13:22.439
 you know,

00:13:22.580 --> 00:13:22.799
 oops,

00:13:22.860 --> 00:13:23.580
 I did it again.

00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:25.879
 But that's the error,

00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:26.259
 okay?

00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:26.580
 But,

00:13:26.899 --> 00:13:27.120
 anyway,

00:13:27.259 --> 00:13:27.860
 they're kind of like

00:13:27.860 --> 00:13:29.259
 early poor versions

00:13:29.259 --> 00:13:29.840
 of iPhone,

00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:31.039
 if you can imagine that.

00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:32.200
 2007,

00:13:32.580 --> 00:13:33.879
 Steve Jobs made the iPhone,

00:13:33.980 --> 00:13:34.159
 right?

00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:34.959
 And then he said,

00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:37.519
 this is a revolutionary device

00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:39.139
 that's going to change everything.

00:13:40.199 --> 00:13:41.379
 I think he was right,

00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:41.899
 okay?

00:13:42.219 --> 00:13:43.259
 But it's actually changed

00:13:43.259 --> 00:13:44.179
 a lot of things

00:13:44.179 --> 00:13:45.299
 he didn't intend to change.

00:13:45.860 --> 00:13:45.980
 So,

00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:48.179
 and we also,

00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:49.379
 at that same time,

00:13:49.620 --> 00:13:50.259
 we had the advent

00:13:50.259 --> 00:13:51.139
 of cloud computing,

00:13:51.539 --> 00:13:51.779
 okay?

00:13:51.819 --> 00:13:53.179
 I won't go too techy

00:13:53.179 --> 00:13:53.699
 into this,

00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:55.199
 but the fact is,

00:13:55.620 --> 00:13:56.899
 social media was birthed

00:13:56.899 --> 00:13:58.159
 from cloud computing,

00:13:58.379 --> 00:13:58.620
 okay?

00:13:58.620 --> 00:13:59.220
 So,

00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:01.399
 2007,

00:14:01.820 --> 00:14:03.039
 this is my life

00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:03.940
 in 2007.

00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:04.500
 Well,

00:14:04.860 --> 00:14:05.120
 you know,

00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:07.019
 does it look like

00:14:07.019 --> 00:14:08.279
 a little bit of your life

00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:08.639
 as well?

00:14:08.899 --> 00:14:09.620
 Social media,

00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:09.960
 okay,

00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:11.019
 was meant to help us connect.

00:14:11.139 --> 00:14:11.480
 Instagram,

00:14:11.940 --> 00:14:12.320
 Facebook,

00:14:12.580 --> 00:14:13.139
 and LinkedIn,

00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:14.740
 and later Snapchat,

00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:16.019
 was helped to connect

00:14:16.019 --> 00:14:16.639
 with one another.

00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:17.299
 But,

00:14:17.799 --> 00:14:18.519
 the problem,

00:14:18.740 --> 00:14:19.799
 as David Brooks said,

00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.740
 it created thinner relationships,

00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:22.539
 okay?

00:14:22.740 --> 00:14:23.340
 He said,

00:14:23.460 --> 00:14:23.980
 online,

00:14:24.340 --> 00:14:24.960
 it's great,

00:14:25.379 --> 00:14:26.419
 it's a great place

00:14:26.419 --> 00:14:27.700
 for human contact,

00:14:27.700 --> 00:14:28.600
 but not internet.

00:14:28.620 --> 00:14:28.879
 intimacy.

00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:30.560
 Online,

00:14:30.980 --> 00:14:31.799
 it's a great place

00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:32.560
 for information,

00:14:32.820 --> 00:14:33.659
 but not reflection,

00:14:34.600 --> 00:14:34.840
 okay?

00:14:35.259 --> 00:14:35.500
 So,

00:14:36.379 --> 00:14:36.639
 you know,

00:14:37.299 --> 00:14:37.940
 you can't,

00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:39.259
 most of our messaging,

00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:40.580
 we may be messaging

00:14:40.580 --> 00:14:42.419
 tens of people,

00:14:42.679 --> 00:14:43.019
 I don't know,

00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:43.899
 some of you may be messaging

00:14:43.899 --> 00:14:44.899
 hundreds of people

00:14:44.899 --> 00:14:45.820
 per day,

00:14:46.019 --> 00:14:46.860
 but you're not having

00:14:46.860 --> 00:14:47.779
 deep relationships.

00:14:47.980 --> 00:14:48.159
 I mean,

00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:48.779
 how deep can

00:14:48.779 --> 00:14:50.139
 your relationship be

00:14:50.139 --> 00:14:51.419
 if there's no words,

00:14:51.500 --> 00:14:52.340
 but just emoji,

00:14:53.100 --> 00:14:53.860
 or selfies

00:14:53.860 --> 00:14:54.740
 with dog filters,

00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:55.740
 okay?

00:14:56.460 --> 00:14:56.720
 So,

00:14:57.519 --> 00:14:58.399
 I'm not,

00:14:58.399 --> 00:14:59.459
 giving you a hard time

00:14:59.459 --> 00:15:00.039
 with the selfie

00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:00.799
 with the dog filter,

00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:01.720
 but I'm saying,

00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:03.220
 that is not

00:15:03.220 --> 00:15:04.600
 a relationship.

00:15:05.100 --> 00:15:06.179
 That is something,

00:15:06.340 --> 00:15:07.299
 I don't know what it is,

00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:08.159
 but it's actually

00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:08.959
 not a relationship,

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:09.360
 okay?

00:15:09.779 --> 00:15:09.980
 So,

00:15:10.079 --> 00:15:10.699
 cut down on the

00:15:10.699 --> 00:15:12.419
 selfie with the dog filter.

00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:15.000
 A couple weeks ago,

00:15:15.079 --> 00:15:16.019
 I was in Hongxiao,

00:15:17.279 --> 00:15:19.220
 visiting my youngest daughter,

00:15:19.319 --> 00:15:19.600
 Lizzie,

00:15:20.220 --> 00:15:20.600
 and,

00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:21.240
 you know,

00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:22.100
 Hongxiao is the home

00:15:22.100 --> 00:15:22.720
 for Alibaba,

00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:24.139
 and I just happened

00:15:24.139 --> 00:15:24.779
 to be there

00:15:24.779 --> 00:15:27.620
 on November 11th.

00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:28.040
 You know,

00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:28.860
 anybody know,

00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:30.600
 Singles Day,

00:15:30.700 --> 00:15:30.879
 right?

00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:31.960
 1-1-1-1,

00:15:32.040 --> 00:15:32.240
 right?

00:15:32.540 --> 00:15:32.920
 I don't know.

00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:36.759
 Who made this thing up?

00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:37.180
 Okay?

00:15:37.340 --> 00:15:37.860
 Singles Day,

00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:39.120
 biggest shopping day

00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:39.720
 in China.

00:15:40.160 --> 00:15:40.820
 And we were there

00:15:40.820 --> 00:15:41.800
 on Saturday morning,

00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:43.220
 and we drove out

00:15:43.220 --> 00:15:44.320
 to look at some sites,

00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:45.820
 and there was no traffic

00:15:45.820 --> 00:15:47.000
 on the road.

00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:49.559
 And the tour guide said,

00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:51.019
 the reason there's no traffic

00:15:51.019 --> 00:15:51.700
 on the road is

00:15:51.700 --> 00:15:53.519
 everybody was up all night

00:15:53.519 --> 00:15:54.700
 from midnight

00:15:54.700 --> 00:15:56.019
 to 4 a.m.

00:15:56.120 --> 00:15:56.980
 trying to get

00:15:56.980 --> 00:15:57.860
 the best bargains.

00:15:58.580 --> 00:15:58.779
 So,

00:15:59.000 --> 00:15:59.919
 everybody's sleeping

00:15:59.919 --> 00:16:00.659
 in this morning,

00:16:00.980 --> 00:16:01.259
 right?

00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:02.019
 So,

00:16:02.519 --> 00:16:03.659
 and there was

00:16:03.659 --> 00:16:04.820
 this sense of pride.

00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:06.039
 By the end of that day,

00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:06.379
 you know,

00:16:06.500 --> 00:16:07.240
 China had bought

00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:08.279
 $25 billion

00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:10.740
 worth of stuff.

00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:12.000
 I don't know,

00:16:12.179 --> 00:16:13.299
 stocked up on toilet paper

00:16:13.299 --> 00:16:14.100
 for three years,

00:16:14.340 --> 00:16:14.980
 or something.

00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:16.879
 $25 billion

00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:17.480
 right?

00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:18.539
 Which is like twice

00:16:18.539 --> 00:16:19.659
 Black Friday,

00:16:20.139 --> 00:16:20.720
 Cyber Monday,

00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:21.700
 whatever it is.

00:16:22.340 --> 00:16:23.279
 But the fact is,

00:16:23.340 --> 00:16:24.539
 there was a national pride

00:16:24.539 --> 00:16:25.820
 in how much we have spent

00:16:25.820 --> 00:16:26.639
 on buying stuff

00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:27.500
 that we don't need.

00:16:28.200 --> 00:16:28.419
 Okay?

00:16:29.080 --> 00:16:29.879
 It was like

00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:30.860
 China won the World Cup

00:16:30.860 --> 00:16:33.120
 when it crossed

00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:34.759
 the $25 billion mark.

00:16:34.860 --> 00:16:34.980
 So,

00:16:35.379 --> 00:16:36.080
 there's something

00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:36.899
 going on there,

00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:37.539
 and we're spending,

00:16:37.919 --> 00:16:38.519
 you know,

00:16:38.779 --> 00:16:40.539
 Taobao and Amazon

00:16:40.539 --> 00:16:41.879
 was meant to save us time.

00:16:42.379 --> 00:16:42.860
 But we're actually

00:16:42.860 --> 00:16:44.000
 spending a lot of time,

00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:44.940
 I don't know about you,

00:16:45.179 --> 00:16:45.379
 you know,

00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:46.120
 I get hooked.

00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:47.560
 I'm spending a lot of time

00:16:47.560 --> 00:16:49.220
 going on these online shots,

00:16:49.379 --> 00:16:50.019
 buying stuff

00:16:50.019 --> 00:16:50.899
 that you don't need.

00:16:51.740 --> 00:16:51.960
 Okay?

00:16:52.179 --> 00:16:53.179
 You're not actually,

00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:55.159
 if you're honest with us,

00:16:55.259 --> 00:16:56.820
 not really saving us

00:16:56.820 --> 00:16:57.500
 a lot of time.

00:16:57.980 --> 00:16:58.139
 So,

00:16:59.100 --> 00:16:59.960
 and here's the

00:16:59.960 --> 00:17:00.879
 dirty little secret,

00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:01.360
 okay?

00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:03.159
 I work in the technology industry.

00:17:04.059 --> 00:17:04.700
 Tech companies

00:17:04.700 --> 00:17:05.819
 are not interested

00:17:05.819 --> 00:17:06.859
 at all

00:17:06.859 --> 00:17:08.319
 in saving you time.

00:17:09.180 --> 00:17:10.680
 They have zero interest,

00:17:11.019 --> 00:17:11.279
 okay,

00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:12.660
 of all saving you time.

00:17:12.660 --> 00:17:13.660
 what they want

00:17:13.660 --> 00:17:15.400
 is for you

00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:16.580
 to spend more time

00:17:16.580 --> 00:17:18.880
 on their platforms.

00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:19.820
 It could be

00:17:19.820 --> 00:17:20.600
 on their devices,

00:17:21.320 --> 00:17:22.800
 on their social media platform.

00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:23.259
 Why?

00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:24.740
 The more time you spend there,

00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:26.519
 the more value there is

00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:27.800
 for advertisers

00:17:27.800 --> 00:17:30.140
 who advertise to you

00:17:30.140 --> 00:17:31.460
 for you to buy more stuff,

00:17:31.660 --> 00:17:33.279
 which can be delivered

00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:34.300
 from the SF

00:17:34.300 --> 00:17:35.000
 tomorrow,

00:17:35.519 --> 00:17:35.740
 right?

00:17:35.740 --> 00:17:36.220
 So,

00:17:36.779 --> 00:17:37.700
 the fact here is

00:17:37.700 --> 00:17:38.480
 technology,

00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:39.200
 you know,

00:17:39.279 --> 00:17:39.900
 we say,

00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:40.039
 well,

00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:40.599
 technology is going to

00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:41.380
 save so much time.

00:17:42.500 --> 00:17:43.279
 Tech companies

00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:44.120
 are not interested,

00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:44.660
 okay?

00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:45.000
 And you say,

00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:45.240
 wow,

00:17:45.299 --> 00:17:46.420
 that's very evil,

00:17:46.660 --> 00:17:49.660
 very conspiracy theory,

00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:50.420
 okay?

00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:51.980
 Give you a couple examples.

00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:52.620
 Snapchat.

00:17:52.900 --> 00:17:53.559
 Who uses Snapchat?

00:17:55.980 --> 00:17:56.220
 Okay,

00:17:56.279 --> 00:17:57.519
 you don't have to be ashamed of it.

00:17:57.620 --> 00:17:58.079
 I didn't say,

00:17:58.140 --> 00:17:58.720
 who uses Snapchat

00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:00.000
 only using dog filters?

00:18:02.299 --> 00:18:02.700
 Okay.

00:18:03.900 --> 00:18:04.339
 Snapchat.

00:18:04.339 --> 00:18:04.539
 Okay.

00:18:04.539 --> 00:18:05.579
 Okay.

00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:07.200
 Snapchat has latest,

00:18:07.500 --> 00:18:07.759
 latest,

00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:08.559
 not the latest,

00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:09.440
 the big thing,

00:18:09.519 --> 00:18:10.639
 Snapchat is Snapstreak,

00:18:11.420 --> 00:18:11.680
 right?

00:18:11.859 --> 00:18:12.519
 For those of you

00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:12.859
 who don't know

00:18:12.859 --> 00:18:13.899
 what Snapstreak is,

00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:15.299
 you know,

00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:16.339
 it's basically,

00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:17.859
 you're Snapchatting a friend

00:18:17.859 --> 00:18:19.619
 and you need to Snapchat

00:18:19.619 --> 00:18:21.079
 each other every day

00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:22.480
 to keep that streak going.

00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:23.420
 And people have

00:18:23.420 --> 00:18:24.519
 one year,

00:18:24.740 --> 00:18:25.319
 two year,

00:18:25.619 --> 00:18:26.779
 really long streaks,

00:18:26.879 --> 00:18:27.700
 hundreds of days,

00:18:27.779 --> 00:18:28.000
 right?

00:18:28.359 --> 00:18:30.159
 And you feel a lot of pressure

00:18:30.159 --> 00:18:30.879
 on,

00:18:31.139 --> 00:18:33.139
 I got to snap something

00:18:33.139 --> 00:18:34.259
 to my friend,

00:18:34.259 --> 00:18:34.640
 and otherwise,

00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:35.460
 I'm going to break

00:18:35.460 --> 00:18:36.079
 the streak.

00:18:36.420 --> 00:18:36.640
 Okay?

00:18:37.900 --> 00:18:38.319
 That,

00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:39.559
 in marketing,

00:18:39.940 --> 00:18:40.720
 is called

00:18:40.720 --> 00:18:41.660
 a compulsive loop.

00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:42.720
 Okay?

00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:44.599
 Or hijacking technology.

00:18:45.539 --> 00:18:45.680
 So,

00:18:45.879 --> 00:18:47.259
 what is happening

00:18:47.259 --> 00:18:48.319
 is technologies,

00:18:49.140 --> 00:18:49.799
 tech companies

00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:50.259
 are building

00:18:50.259 --> 00:18:52.119
 systems

00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:52.900
 into,

00:18:53.700 --> 00:18:54.599
 to keep you on

00:18:54.599 --> 00:18:55.379
 the system.

00:18:55.579 --> 00:18:55.879
 Okay?

00:18:56.140 --> 00:18:56.740
 Newsfeeds.

00:18:56.859 --> 00:18:57.539
 If you look at how

00:18:57.539 --> 00:18:58.759
 newsfeeds are read,

00:18:59.079 --> 00:18:59.619
 you go into

00:18:59.619 --> 00:19:00.420
 CNN,

00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:01.259
 BBC,

00:19:01.259 --> 00:19:01.379
 see,

00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:01.980
 it doesn't matter,

00:19:02.140 --> 00:19:02.359
 any,

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:02.680
 having,

00:19:02.879 --> 00:19:03.379
 whatever,

00:19:03.980 --> 00:19:05.200
 the news stories

00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:06.400
 actually go down

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:07.220
 in a spiral.

00:19:07.379 --> 00:19:08.420
 It's a bottomless bowl

00:19:08.420 --> 00:19:09.200
 and it leads you

00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:10.180
 to a next story,

00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:10.759
 next story,

00:19:10.879 --> 00:19:11.259
 next story,

00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:11.819
 next story.

00:19:12.259 --> 00:19:12.539
 Okay?

00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:13.480
 Because there's always

00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:14.900
 a different colour

00:19:14.900 --> 00:19:15.559
 click-through

00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:17.259
 to go to the next story.

00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:17.700
 Okay?

00:19:17.700 --> 00:19:18.440
 And,

00:19:18.600 --> 00:19:20.380
 that's to keep you

00:19:20.380 --> 00:19:21.180
 on the news site

00:19:21.180 --> 00:19:21.880
 for longer.

00:19:22.340 --> 00:19:22.500
 Okay?

00:19:23.019 --> 00:19:23.860
 Online gaming,

00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:24.680
 if you're a gamer,

00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:26.220
 there are incentives

00:19:26.220 --> 00:19:26.779
 for you.

00:19:26.900 --> 00:19:27.279
 In fact,

00:19:27.380 --> 00:19:27.960
 there are penalties.

00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:29.059
 If you don't play

00:19:29.059 --> 00:19:29.799
 every day,

00:19:30.299 --> 00:19:30.779
 there are penalties.

00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:31.440
 You drop down

00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:32.180
 the league table

00:19:32.180 --> 00:19:33.740
 and so forth.

00:19:33.740 --> 00:19:33.920
 Right?

00:19:34.019 --> 00:19:34.220
 I mean,

00:19:34.539 --> 00:19:35.400
 for those of you

00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:36.180
 who spend a lot of time

00:19:36.180 --> 00:19:36.779
 on the platform,

00:19:36.900 --> 00:19:37.900
 you know this.

00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:39.360
 And worse than,

00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:39.779
 well,

00:19:39.819 --> 00:19:40.480
 I wouldn't say worse.

00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:41.860
 Most of all,

00:19:43.360 --> 00:19:44.360
 social media platforms

00:19:44.360 --> 00:19:44.980
 are very,

00:19:45.080 --> 00:19:45.539
 very smart

00:19:45.539 --> 00:19:46.119
 and they give

00:19:46.119 --> 00:19:47.799
 irregular time rewards

00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:50.039
 because then

00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:51.019
 you have to check it,

00:19:51.399 --> 00:19:52.200
 check your Facebook

00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:53.079
 and check Instagram

00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:54.059
 all the time

00:19:54.059 --> 00:19:55.700
 to get this burst

00:19:55.700 --> 00:19:57.019
 of social affirmation.

00:19:57.420 --> 00:19:58.579
 What is social affirmation?

00:19:58.920 --> 00:19:59.619
 Your likes,

00:20:00.619 --> 00:20:01.279
 your followers.

00:20:02.099 --> 00:20:02.259
 Okay?

00:20:02.259 --> 00:20:02.899
 Trust me,

00:20:02.940 --> 00:20:03.319
 those likes

00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:04.619
 don't appear immediately.

00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:05.139
 Okay?

00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:06.740
 There's timing involved.

00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:07.460
 So,

00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:10.519
 social affirmation

00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:13.180
 is a dangerous thing

00:20:13.180 --> 00:20:15.519
 and most of you know

00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:16.639
 you can actually go

00:20:16.639 --> 00:20:18.019
 on certain sites

00:20:18.019 --> 00:20:18.920
 to buy likes

00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:19.680
 which is,

00:20:19.819 --> 00:20:20.220
 you know,

00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:21.500
 kind of weird

00:20:21.500 --> 00:20:22.160
 but anyway,

00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:23.539
 you can buy likes

00:20:23.539 --> 00:20:25.160
 so suddenly

00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:26.119
 your post has got

00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:26.700
 more likes

00:20:26.700 --> 00:20:28.420
 than actually there was

00:20:28.420 --> 00:20:30.079
 people who liked it.

00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:32.200
 But what social affirmation

00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:33.579
 is leading to?

00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:34.079
 You know,

00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:34.720
 a month ago

00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:36.099
 I had to do

00:20:36.099 --> 00:20:36.859
 a little study

00:20:36.859 --> 00:20:37.480
 on a subject

00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:40.460
 I have no knowledge of

00:20:40.460 --> 00:20:41.400
 and that's cosmetics

00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:43.339
 because I was talking

00:20:43.339 --> 00:20:44.059
 to a client

00:20:44.059 --> 00:20:44.920
 who makes cosmetics

00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:45.720
 and I was trying

00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:46.259
 to talk to him

00:20:46.259 --> 00:20:46.920
 about technology

00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:47.400
 so I thought

00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:47.940
 I better learn

00:20:47.940 --> 00:20:48.580
 about cosmetics

00:20:48.580 --> 00:20:49.279
 otherwise I'm going

00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:50.400
 to look like

00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:51.519
 a right Philistine

00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:53.220
 in the cosmetic industry.

00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:54.340
 So,

00:20:54.519 --> 00:20:55.460
 I studied

00:20:55.460 --> 00:20:56.960
 the cosmetic industry

00:20:56.960 --> 00:20:58.460
 for a few days

00:20:58.460 --> 00:20:59.160
 and one thing

00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:00.039
 I found was

00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:01.400
 cosmetic industry

00:21:01.400 --> 00:21:01.860
 has been going

00:21:01.860 --> 00:21:02.480
 through a boom

00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:03.460
 in the last five years.

00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:04.539
 Exponential boom.

00:21:04.900 --> 00:21:05.660
 Selling more

00:21:05.660 --> 00:21:07.120
 than ever.

00:21:07.539 --> 00:21:07.620
 Okay?

00:21:07.980 --> 00:21:08.880
 And the boom

00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:09.340
 was driven

00:21:09.340 --> 00:21:10.360
 by this one concept

00:21:10.360 --> 00:21:11.060
 social beauty.

00:21:11.059 --> 00:21:12.259
 Okay?

00:21:12.659 --> 00:21:13.039
 And what is

00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:13.639
 social beauty?

00:21:13.759 --> 00:21:15.079
 You can probably guess

00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:15.460
 right?

00:21:15.819 --> 00:21:16.819
 It's look good

00:21:16.819 --> 00:21:18.319
 on your selfies

00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:19.259
 on your Instagram

00:21:19.259 --> 00:21:20.539
 or on your

00:21:20.539 --> 00:21:21.819
 whatever you're posting

00:21:21.819 --> 00:21:22.359
 you're doing.

00:21:22.919 --> 00:21:23.059
 Okay?

00:21:23.179 --> 00:21:23.859
 Social beauty

00:21:23.859 --> 00:21:24.740
 is driving a boom

00:21:24.740 --> 00:21:25.779
 in the cosmetic industry

00:21:25.779 --> 00:21:27.299
 especially with foundation

00:21:27.299 --> 00:21:27.859
 and lipstick

00:21:27.859 --> 00:21:28.799
 and eyeliner

00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:30.720
 less so with nail products

00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:31.839
 because I figured

00:21:31.839 --> 00:21:33.299
 if you can see

00:21:33.299 --> 00:21:34.440
 nail products

00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:35.399
 in your selfie

00:21:35.399 --> 00:21:36.200
 that means your fingers

00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:36.919
 actually covering

00:21:36.919 --> 00:21:37.460
 the camera

00:21:37.460 --> 00:21:39.019
 so this

00:21:39.019 --> 00:21:41.200
 just around the face.

00:21:41.380 --> 00:21:41.519
 Okay?

00:21:41.660 --> 00:21:42.480
 That's the boom.

00:21:42.620 --> 00:21:42.980
 Do not

00:21:42.980 --> 00:21:44.539
 this is not booming.

00:21:46.220 --> 00:21:46.480
 So

00:21:46.480 --> 00:21:48.200
 but on top of that

00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:49.620
 I also found out

00:21:49.620 --> 00:21:50.600
 about this app

00:21:50.600 --> 00:21:51.259
 Me Too.

00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:53.079
 Now

00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:54.200
 there's a lot of people

00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:54.660
 in denial

00:21:54.660 --> 00:21:55.299
 out there saying

00:21:55.299 --> 00:21:55.860
 I don't know

00:21:55.860 --> 00:21:56.460
 what Me Too is.

00:21:56.500 --> 00:21:57.059
 I never used it

00:21:57.059 --> 00:21:57.700
 before in my life.

00:21:58.120 --> 00:21:59.799
 It's the number one

00:21:59.799 --> 00:22:01.860
 selfie filter app

00:22:01.860 --> 00:22:03.100
 in China.

00:22:03.380 --> 00:22:03.680
 Okay?

00:22:03.840 --> 00:22:04.960
 I see some nodding heads.

00:22:05.600 --> 00:22:06.640
 So you take a picture

00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:07.400
 you don't have to do

00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:07.860
 your makeup.

00:22:08.420 --> 00:22:08.640
 Okay?

00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:09.160
 You take a picture

00:22:09.160 --> 00:22:10.040
 and then you put in

00:22:10.040 --> 00:22:10.720
 these filters

00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:11.500
 and basically

00:22:11.500 --> 00:22:12.580
 by the time you post it

00:22:12.580 --> 00:22:13.140
 you can't even

00:22:13.140 --> 00:22:14.120
 recognize yourself.

00:22:14.420 --> 00:22:15.200
 You look so good.

00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:15.860
 Right?

00:22:16.100 --> 00:22:16.640
 The problem

00:22:16.640 --> 00:22:18.640
 and by the way

00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:19.720
 this is not like

00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:21.060
 50,000 downloads.

00:22:21.259 --> 00:22:21.780
 There's over

00:22:21.780 --> 00:22:23.259
 a billion downloads

00:22:23.259 --> 00:22:24.080
 of Me Too.

00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:24.660
 Okay?

00:22:24.740 --> 00:22:26.180
 It's a multi-billion dollar company.

00:22:26.700 --> 00:22:27.940
 I say a billion downloads.

00:22:28.020 --> 00:22:29.160
 That's a lot of downloads.

00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:29.440
 Okay?

00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:30.960
 Of the app.

00:22:31.120 --> 00:22:31.400
 So

00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:31.940
 you know

00:22:31.940 --> 00:22:32.400
 if I

00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:34.280
 confiscate everybody's

00:22:34.280 --> 00:22:35.120
 smartphone right now

00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:36.319
 and see who has

00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:37.119
 the Me Too app

00:22:37.119 --> 00:22:37.839
 you know

00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:38.759
 there will be

00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:40.719
 a good bunch of people here

00:22:40.719 --> 00:22:41.819
 with the Me Too app.

00:22:42.219 --> 00:22:42.399
 Okay?

00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:43.619
 I'm just saying

00:22:43.619 --> 00:22:44.239
 so

00:22:44.239 --> 00:22:45.699
 one of the problems is

00:22:45.699 --> 00:22:47.059
 we are blurring

00:22:47.059 --> 00:22:48.279
 the line between reality

00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:49.479
 and

00:22:49.479 --> 00:22:50.459
 and

00:22:50.459 --> 00:22:50.779
 and

00:22:50.779 --> 00:22:51.919
 and what is fake.

00:22:52.639 --> 00:22:54.379
 And we got a lot of pressure.

00:22:54.859 --> 00:22:55.779
 We as a society

00:22:55.779 --> 00:22:56.859
 have put a lot of pressure

00:22:56.859 --> 00:22:57.559
 on people

00:22:57.559 --> 00:22:58.339
 and put on

00:22:58.339 --> 00:22:58.939
 on ourselves

00:22:58.939 --> 00:22:59.819
 on this

00:22:59.819 --> 00:23:01.159
 social affirmation

00:23:01.159 --> 00:23:01.639
 and this

00:23:01.639 --> 00:23:02.459
 social beauty.

00:23:02.460 --> 00:23:04.200
 technology

00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:05.460
 ain't the solve

00:23:05.460 --> 00:23:06.860
 for our

00:23:06.860 --> 00:23:07.460
 razzled

00:23:07.460 --> 00:23:08.799
 out of control life.

00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:09.200
 Okay?

00:23:09.740 --> 00:23:10.059
 And

00:23:10.059 --> 00:23:11.079
 last and certainly

00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:11.700
 not least

00:23:11.700 --> 00:23:13.000
 a lot of

00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:13.740
 a lot of

00:23:13.740 --> 00:23:14.720
 news articles

00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:15.380
 out

00:23:15.380 --> 00:23:16.120
 and Economist

00:23:16.120 --> 00:23:16.640
 Front cover

00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:17.440
 two weeks ago

00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:18.319
 said

00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:19.100
 the social

00:23:19.100 --> 00:23:20.720
 the quote was

00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:21.620
 social media's

00:23:21.620 --> 00:23:22.440
 threat to democracy

00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:23.319
 and basically

00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:24.140
 it was the story

00:23:24.140 --> 00:23:24.519
 about

00:23:24.519 --> 00:23:25.420
 Facebook

00:23:25.420 --> 00:23:25.860
 and

00:23:25.860 --> 00:23:27.039
 and Russian

00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:28.240
 fake news

00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:29.579
 and dissemination

00:23:29.579 --> 00:23:30.420
 of that.

00:23:30.420 --> 00:23:30.880
 so

00:23:30.880 --> 00:23:33.259
 we live in a more

00:23:33.259 --> 00:23:34.340
 complex society

00:23:34.340 --> 00:23:35.340
 with this technology.

00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:36.340
 We have a lot more

00:23:36.340 --> 00:23:36.980
 new pressure

00:23:36.980 --> 00:23:37.759
 that the Ephesians

00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:38.500
 didn't have

00:23:38.500 --> 00:23:39.140
 but you know

00:23:39.140 --> 00:23:40.120
 but

00:23:40.120 --> 00:23:40.940
 but also

00:23:40.940 --> 00:23:42.279
 the problem

00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:43.259
 that solution

00:23:43.259 --> 00:23:44.460
 is still the same.

00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:45.279
 Paul's

00:23:45.279 --> 00:23:46.980
 advice to the Ephesians

00:23:46.980 --> 00:23:48.440
 works for us today.

00:23:49.220 --> 00:23:49.800
 What

00:23:49.800 --> 00:23:51.380
 Paul is saying is

00:23:51.380 --> 00:23:52.539
 only

00:23:52.539 --> 00:23:53.420
 if you have

00:23:53.420 --> 00:23:54.779
 the spirit

00:23:54.779 --> 00:23:56.180
 active in your life

00:23:56.180 --> 00:23:57.360
 that you're going

00:23:57.360 --> 00:23:58.220
 to see more

00:23:58.220 --> 00:23:58.840
 of reality

00:23:58.839 --> 00:23:59.939
 and you're going

00:23:59.939 --> 00:24:00.720
 to have more

00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:01.619
 control

00:24:01.619 --> 00:24:02.359
 in your life.

00:24:02.579 --> 00:24:02.759
 Okay.

00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:04.079
 The recognition

00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:04.919
 that actually

00:24:04.919 --> 00:24:06.099
 2,000 years ago

00:24:06.099 --> 00:24:07.240
 on a hill

00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:07.980
 in Calvary

00:24:07.980 --> 00:24:09.720
 that Christ

00:24:09.720 --> 00:24:10.579
 died on the cross

00:24:10.579 --> 00:24:11.019
 for us

00:24:11.019 --> 00:24:11.899
 have given us

00:24:11.899 --> 00:24:12.359
 that victory

00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:13.359
 frees us

00:24:13.359 --> 00:24:14.439
 from that

00:24:14.439 --> 00:24:15.039
 social

00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:15.939
 affirmation

00:24:15.939 --> 00:24:16.579
 seeking

00:24:16.579 --> 00:24:18.099
 tendency.

00:24:18.639 --> 00:24:19.459
 Frees us

00:24:19.459 --> 00:24:19.859
 from that

00:24:19.859 --> 00:24:20.799
 social beauty

00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:21.399
 seeking

00:24:21.399 --> 00:24:22.379
 tendency.

00:24:22.879 --> 00:24:23.199
 We won't

00:24:23.199 --> 00:24:24.119
 feel so

00:24:24.119 --> 00:24:24.759
 enslaved

00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:25.500
 by that.

00:24:25.500 --> 00:24:26.099
 So

00:24:26.099 --> 00:24:27.900
 does that

00:24:27.900 --> 00:24:28.299
 mean

00:24:28.299 --> 00:24:29.500
 the challenges

00:24:29.500 --> 00:24:30.700
 that we face

00:24:30.700 --> 00:24:31.319
 before us

00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:31.799
 are all

00:24:31.799 --> 00:24:33.180
 not real?

00:24:33.380 --> 00:24:33.619
 No.

00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:34.339
 It doesn't.

00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:35.900
 We all face

00:24:35.900 --> 00:24:36.559
 real challenges

00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:37.299
 in our lives

00:24:37.299 --> 00:24:38.579
 but what

00:24:38.579 --> 00:24:39.640
 having a spirit

00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:40.140
 filled life

00:24:40.140 --> 00:24:40.539
 means

00:24:40.539 --> 00:24:41.599
 is that

00:24:41.599 --> 00:24:42.099
 we will not

00:24:42.099 --> 00:24:42.559
 be crushed

00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:42.960
 by those

00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:43.380
 challenges.

00:24:44.380 --> 00:24:45.380
 We will see

00:24:45.380 --> 00:24:45.980
 a reality

00:24:45.980 --> 00:24:46.819
 that is

00:24:46.819 --> 00:24:47.579
 deeper

00:24:47.579 --> 00:24:48.759
 and that is

00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:49.400
 more

00:24:49.400 --> 00:24:50.819
 real.

00:24:51.079 --> 00:24:51.480
 Now I'll give you

00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:51.940
 an example.

00:24:52.140 --> 00:24:52.859
 In the Old Testament

00:24:52.859 --> 00:24:53.440
 do you remember

00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:54.240
 that there's a story

00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:54.900
 of Elisha?

00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:56.559
 Elisha was

00:24:56.559 --> 00:24:57.200
 in a place

00:24:57.200 --> 00:24:57.799
 called Dothran

00:24:57.799 --> 00:24:59.460
 and he was

00:24:59.460 --> 00:25:00.160
 there with his

00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:01.039
 servant

00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:02.460
 and the king

00:25:02.460 --> 00:25:03.019
 of Syria

00:25:03.019 --> 00:25:04.759
 wanted to

00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:05.660
 kill Elisha

00:25:05.660 --> 00:25:06.759
 so what he did

00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:07.640
 is sent an army

00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:08.579
 with chariots

00:25:08.579 --> 00:25:09.359
 and soldiers

00:25:09.359 --> 00:25:10.720
 and in the

00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:11.099
 morning

00:25:11.099 --> 00:25:13.059
 Elisha and

00:25:13.059 --> 00:25:13.500
 the servant

00:25:13.500 --> 00:25:14.059
 woke up

00:25:14.059 --> 00:25:14.799
 and he looks

00:25:14.799 --> 00:25:15.380
 over the wall

00:25:15.380 --> 00:25:16.299
 and he sees

00:25:16.299 --> 00:25:16.960
 oh we're

00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:17.960
 surrounded by

00:25:17.960 --> 00:25:19.019
 thousands of

00:25:19.019 --> 00:25:19.920
 Syrian soldiers

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:21.059
 okay with

00:25:21.059 --> 00:25:21.779
 their chariots

00:25:21.779 --> 00:25:23.640
 and the servant

00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:24.080
 runs down

00:25:24.080 --> 00:25:24.300
 and says

00:25:24.300 --> 00:25:24.840
 to Elisha

00:25:24.840 --> 00:25:25.840
 we're in

00:25:25.840 --> 00:25:26.140
 trouble

00:25:26.140 --> 00:25:26.500
 we are

00:25:26.500 --> 00:25:27.200
 dead

00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:28.360
 the Syrian

00:25:28.360 --> 00:25:28.720
 king

00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:29.200
 has sent

00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:29.820
 an army

00:25:29.820 --> 00:25:31.300
 and we're

00:25:31.300 --> 00:25:31.440
 going to

00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:31.860
 capture

00:25:31.860 --> 00:25:32.160
 and we're

00:25:32.160 --> 00:25:32.259
 going to

00:25:32.259 --> 00:25:32.700
 get killed

00:25:32.700 --> 00:25:34.120
 and Elisha

00:25:34.120 --> 00:25:34.560
 said

00:25:34.560 --> 00:25:36.259
 let's get

00:25:36.259 --> 00:25:36.560
 drunk

00:25:36.560 --> 00:25:37.460
 no he didn't

00:25:37.460 --> 00:25:38.000
 of course he

00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:38.340
 didn't get

00:25:38.340 --> 00:25:38.860
 to say that

00:25:38.860 --> 00:25:39.640
 he said

00:25:39.640 --> 00:25:42.340
 the contract

00:25:42.340 --> 00:25:43.320
 he said

00:25:43.320 --> 00:25:44.240
 he said

00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:45.780
 let us

00:25:45.780 --> 00:25:46.080
 pray

00:25:46.080 --> 00:25:48.220
 and what

00:25:48.220 --> 00:25:48.759
 did Elisha

00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:49.360
 pray about

00:25:49.360 --> 00:25:50.000
 Elisha

00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:50.620
 prayed that

00:25:50.620 --> 00:25:51.360
 God will

00:25:51.360 --> 00:25:52.020
 open the

00:25:52.020 --> 00:25:52.540
 servant's

00:25:52.540 --> 00:25:53.000
 eyes

00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:56.099
 Elisha

00:25:56.099 --> 00:25:56.619
 didn't say

00:25:56.619 --> 00:25:57.240
 send down

00:25:57.240 --> 00:25:57.859
 lightning bolt

00:25:57.859 --> 00:25:58.680
 and destroy

00:25:58.680 --> 00:25:59.539
 the Syrian

00:25:59.539 --> 00:25:59.900
 army

00:25:59.900 --> 00:26:00.380
 he said

00:26:00.380 --> 00:26:00.940
 God will

00:26:00.940 --> 00:26:01.460
 open the

00:26:01.460 --> 00:26:01.900
 servant's

00:26:01.900 --> 00:26:02.099
 eyes

00:26:02.099 --> 00:26:02.480
 and when

00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:02.839
 the servant

00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:03.299
 went back

00:26:03.299 --> 00:26:03.680
 up on the

00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:03.920
 wall

00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:05.480
 all the

00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:05.880
 Syrian

00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:06.359
 army was

00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:07.019
 still there

00:26:07.019 --> 00:26:07.400
 if you

00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:07.819
 remember

00:26:07.819 --> 00:26:08.839
 but what

00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:09.299
 he saw

00:26:09.299 --> 00:26:10.319
 behind them

00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:12.059
 were the

00:26:12.059 --> 00:26:12.660
 chariots of

00:26:12.660 --> 00:26:13.059
 fire

00:26:13.059 --> 00:26:14.000
 okay

00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:15.579
 so you

00:26:15.579 --> 00:26:15.740
 know

00:26:15.740 --> 00:26:16.839
 so I'm

00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:17.359
 not saying

00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:18.059
 by having

00:26:18.059 --> 00:26:18.400
 a spirit

00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:18.960
 filled life

00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:19.720
 that you

00:26:19.720 --> 00:26:19.900
 know

00:26:19.900 --> 00:26:20.599
 all your

00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:21.039
 problems

00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:21.380
 are going

00:26:21.380 --> 00:26:21.640
 to go

00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:22.060
 away

00:26:22.060 --> 00:26:22.980
 but what

00:26:22.980 --> 00:26:23.420
 you will

00:26:23.420 --> 00:26:23.760
 have

00:26:23.760 --> 00:26:24.140
 is a

00:26:24.140 --> 00:26:24.800
 perspective

00:26:24.800 --> 00:26:25.540
 that you

00:26:25.540 --> 00:26:25.900
 can see

00:26:25.900 --> 00:26:26.380
 more of

00:26:26.380 --> 00:26:26.760
 reality

00:26:26.760 --> 00:26:27.120
 you get

00:26:27.120 --> 00:26:27.540
 able to

00:26:27.540 --> 00:26:27.820
 see

00:26:27.820 --> 00:26:29.040
 past

00:26:29.040 --> 00:26:29.660
 the

00:26:29.660 --> 00:26:30.640
 problems

00:26:30.640 --> 00:26:31.660
 that is

00:26:31.660 --> 00:26:32.000
 right in

00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:32.320
 front of

00:26:32.320 --> 00:26:32.440
 you

00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:32.960
 you know

00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:33.600
 one of

00:26:33.600 --> 00:26:33.820
 the

00:26:33.820 --> 00:26:36.160
 one of

00:26:36.160 --> 00:26:36.660
 the challenges

00:26:36.660 --> 00:26:37.380
 we have

00:26:37.380 --> 00:26:39.300
 you know

00:26:39.300 --> 00:26:40.200
 we live

00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:40.560
 in a

00:26:40.560 --> 00:26:40.860
 spiritual

00:26:40.860 --> 00:26:41.320
 battle

00:26:41.320 --> 00:26:42.420
 okay

00:26:42.420 --> 00:26:43.820
 in Ephesians

00:26:43.820 --> 00:26:44.820
 where we're

00:26:44.820 --> 00:26:45.600
 told our

00:26:45.600 --> 00:26:46.420
 battle is not

00:26:46.420 --> 00:26:47.120
 just in flesh

00:26:47.120 --> 00:26:47.540
 and blood

00:26:47.540 --> 00:26:48.380
 but our

00:26:48.380 --> 00:26:49.200
 battle is

00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:49.600
 in the

00:26:49.600 --> 00:26:49.880
 cosmic

00:26:49.880 --> 00:26:50.340
 realms

00:26:50.340 --> 00:26:51.140
 and one

00:26:51.140 --> 00:26:51.360
 of the

00:26:51.360 --> 00:26:51.680
 things the

00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:52.420
 enemy want

00:26:52.420 --> 00:26:53.840
 us and

00:26:53.840 --> 00:26:54.380
 want all

00:26:54.380 --> 00:26:54.920
 of us to

00:26:54.920 --> 00:26:55.420
 be focused

00:26:55.420 --> 00:26:56.660
 on is

00:26:56.660 --> 00:26:57.559
 the problems

00:26:57.559 --> 00:26:58.220
 in our

00:26:58.220 --> 00:26:58.580
 lives

00:26:58.580 --> 00:26:59.740
 and he

00:26:59.740 --> 00:27:00.220
 wants those

00:27:00.220 --> 00:27:00.940
 problems to

00:27:00.940 --> 00:27:01.380
 amplify

00:27:01.380 --> 00:27:02.500
 and you know

00:27:02.500 --> 00:27:02.880
 we're all

00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:03.559
 pessimists

00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:04.860
 when it comes

00:27:04.860 --> 00:27:05.380
 to problems

00:27:05.380 --> 00:27:05.759
 we think

00:27:05.759 --> 00:27:06.680
 oh this is

00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:07.120
 just going to

00:27:07.120 --> 00:27:07.440
 turn into

00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:07.900
 this this

00:27:07.900 --> 00:27:08.180
 is going to

00:27:08.180 --> 00:27:08.519
 turn into

00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:08.680
 this

00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:08.980
 you know

00:27:08.980 --> 00:27:09.519
 my kid

00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:09.900
 did not

00:27:09.900 --> 00:27:10.380
 get into

00:27:10.380 --> 00:27:11.500
 that play

00:27:11.500 --> 00:27:11.819
 group

00:27:11.819 --> 00:27:12.580
 therefore

00:27:12.580 --> 00:27:14.340
 he is not

00:27:14.340 --> 00:27:14.620
 going to get

00:27:14.620 --> 00:27:14.920
 into that

00:27:14.920 --> 00:27:15.319
 kindergarten

00:27:15.319 --> 00:27:16.259
 therefore he's

00:27:16.259 --> 00:27:16.600
 not going to

00:27:16.600 --> 00:27:16.779
 get into

00:27:16.779 --> 00:27:17.140
 that primary

00:27:17.140 --> 00:27:17.460

 high school

00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:19.460
 and that

00:27:19.460 --> 00:27:19.980
 university

00:27:19.980 --> 00:27:20.460
 and he's

00:27:20.460 --> 00:27:20.580
 going to

00:27:20.580 --> 00:27:20.920
 sleep under

00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:21.280
 a bridge

00:27:21.280 --> 00:27:22.660
 it's a

00:27:22.660 --> 00:27:23.660
 big leap

00:27:23.660 --> 00:27:24.080
 you know

00:27:24.080 --> 00:27:24.620
 but you know

00:27:24.620 --> 00:27:25.440
 what we all

00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:26.080
 do this

00:27:26.080 --> 00:27:27.259
 because when

00:27:27.259 --> 00:27:27.900
 we see a

00:27:27.900 --> 00:27:28.400
 problem in

00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:28.860
 our life

00:27:28.860 --> 00:27:29.780
 we focus

00:27:29.780 --> 00:27:30.259
 on that

00:27:30.259 --> 00:27:30.660
 and the

00:27:30.660 --> 00:27:31.120
 enemy want

00:27:31.120 --> 00:27:31.680
 us to be

00:27:31.680 --> 00:27:32.320
 overwhelmed

00:27:32.320 --> 00:27:32.740
 by that

00:27:32.740 --> 00:27:33.120
 problem

00:27:33.120 --> 00:27:33.780
 okay

00:27:33.780 --> 00:27:35.019
 and what

00:27:35.019 --> 00:27:35.340
 the Holy

00:27:35.340 --> 00:27:35.900
 Spirit does

00:27:35.900 --> 00:27:37.120
 it clarifies

00:27:37.120 --> 00:27:37.620
 that for you

00:27:37.620 --> 00:27:37.860
 and it's

00:27:37.860 --> 00:27:38.860
 say look

00:27:38.860 --> 00:27:39.240
 at this

00:27:39.240 --> 00:27:39.600
 in the

00:27:39.600 --> 00:27:40.080
 perspective

00:27:40.080 --> 00:27:40.800
 of what

00:27:40.800 --> 00:27:41.259
 Christ has

00:27:41.259 --> 00:27:42.000
 already done

00:27:42.000 --> 00:27:42.500
 for us

00:27:42.500 --> 00:27:43.300
 you have

00:27:43.300 --> 00:27:43.820
 the victory

00:27:43.820 --> 00:27:44.800
 you don't

00:27:44.800 --> 00:27:45.800
 need to be

00:27:45.800 --> 00:27:46.519
 crushed by

00:27:46.519 --> 00:27:47.120
 this problem

00:27:47.120 --> 00:27:47.660
 okay

00:27:47.660 --> 00:27:48.500
 so that's

00:27:48.500 --> 00:27:49.180
 I think

00:27:49.180 --> 00:27:49.900
 you know

00:27:49.900 --> 00:27:51.160
 the essence

00:27:51.160 --> 00:27:51.740
 of that

00:27:51.740 --> 00:27:52.240
 clarity

00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:52.759
 of what

00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:53.100
 the Holy

00:27:53.100 --> 00:27:53.519
 Spirit can

00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:53.960
 give us

00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:54.840
 the other

00:27:54.840 --> 00:27:55.180
 thing

00:27:55.180 --> 00:27:56.080
 within that

00:27:56.080 --> 00:27:56.519
 verse

00:27:56.519 --> 00:27:57.660
 in Ephesians

00:27:57.660 --> 00:27:58.100
 5

00:27:58.100 --> 00:27:58.980
 is it

00:27:58.980 --> 00:27:59.420
 talks about

00:27:59.420 --> 00:27:59.700
 what are

00:27:59.700 --> 00:27:59.900
 some of

00:27:59.900 --> 00:28:00.200
 the other

00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:00.940
 signs

00:28:00.940 --> 00:28:01.779
 of being

00:28:01.779 --> 00:28:01.940
 a

00:28:01.940 --> 00:28:02.360
 spirit-filled

00:28:02.360 --> 00:28:02.740
 life

00:28:02.740 --> 00:28:03.580
 and you know

00:28:03.580 --> 00:28:03.759
 this

00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:04.440
 this I

00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:04.860
 really like

00:28:04.860 --> 00:28:05.300
 firstly

00:28:05.300 --> 00:28:06.380
 it clearly

00:28:06.380 --> 00:28:07.200
 talks about

00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:07.700
 it

00:28:07.700 --> 00:28:09.100
 maybe go

00:28:09.100 --> 00:28:09.460
 back up

00:28:09.460 --> 00:28:09.980
 one slide

00:28:09.980 --> 00:28:11.300
 to the

00:28:11.300 --> 00:28:11.880
 previous slide

00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:12.800
 it clearly

00:28:12.800 --> 00:28:13.500
 talks about

00:28:13.500 --> 00:28:14.660
 addressing

00:28:14.660 --> 00:28:15.340
 one another

00:28:15.340 --> 00:28:16.360
 in psalms

00:28:16.360 --> 00:28:17.100
 and hymns

00:28:17.100 --> 00:28:17.660
 and spiritual

00:28:17.660 --> 00:28:18.220
 songs

00:28:18.220 --> 00:28:18.740
 okay

00:28:18.740 --> 00:28:19.740
 not all of

00:28:19.740 --> 00:28:20.019
 us can

00:28:20.019 --> 00:28:20.540
 hold a tune

00:28:20.540 --> 00:28:21.279
 I can't

00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:21.779
 hold a tune

00:28:21.779 --> 00:28:23.200
 I'm terrible

00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:24.600
 music wise

00:28:24.600 --> 00:28:25.740
 but when

00:28:25.740 --> 00:28:26.259
 you're spirit

00:28:26.259 --> 00:28:26.600
 filled

00:28:26.600 --> 00:28:27.500
 you want

00:28:27.500 --> 00:28:28.860
 to sing

00:28:28.860 --> 00:28:29.540
 praise to

00:28:29.540 --> 00:28:29.840
 God

00:28:29.840 --> 00:28:30.960
 not in

00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:31.220
 tune

00:28:31.220 --> 00:28:31.779
 always

00:28:31.779 --> 00:28:33.000
 but the

00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:33.519
 fact that

00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:34.160
 you want

00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:34.660
 to be able

00:28:34.660 --> 00:28:35.100
 to praise

00:28:35.100 --> 00:28:35.300
 God

00:28:35.300 --> 00:28:35.640
 why

00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:36.440
 music

00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:37.720
 and songs

00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:39.620
 allows us

00:28:39.620 --> 00:28:40.400
 to express

00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:41.080
 things that

00:28:41.080 --> 00:28:41.480
 are in our

00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:41.720
 heart

00:28:41.720 --> 00:28:42.319
 that prose

00:28:42.319 --> 00:28:42.779
 and words

00:28:42.779 --> 00:28:43.100
 cannot

00:28:43.100 --> 00:28:44.299
 okay

00:28:44.299 --> 00:28:44.620
 there's

00:28:44.620 --> 00:28:44.860
 something

00:28:44.860 --> 00:28:45.259
 magic

00:28:45.259 --> 00:28:46.019
 that happens

00:28:46.019 --> 00:28:46.900
 when we

00:28:46.900 --> 00:28:47.259
 sing

00:28:47.259 --> 00:28:47.920
 even out

00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:48.259
 of tune

00:28:48.259 --> 00:28:48.839
 okay

00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:50.019
 that we

00:28:50.019 --> 00:28:50.980
 can express

00:28:50.980 --> 00:28:51.779
 a praise

00:28:51.779 --> 00:28:52.079
 and a

00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:52.480
 gratitude

00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:53.420
 that words

00:28:53.420 --> 00:28:54.140
 when you're

00:28:54.140 --> 00:28:55.240
 just reading

00:28:55.240 --> 00:28:55.860
 and writing

00:28:55.860 --> 00:28:56.900
 doesn't happen

00:28:56.900 --> 00:28:57.600
 okay

00:28:57.600 --> 00:28:58.519
 so that's

00:28:58.519 --> 00:28:58.940
 that's one

00:28:58.940 --> 00:29:00.100
 second thing

00:29:00.100 --> 00:29:01.279
 of signs

00:29:01.279 --> 00:29:01.900
 of a spirit

00:29:01.900 --> 00:29:02.640
 filled life

00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:04.299
 is somebody

00:29:04.299 --> 00:29:05.339
 you can see

00:29:05.339 --> 00:29:06.079
 it back here

00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:07.279
 giving thanks

00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:07.779
 always

00:29:07.779 --> 00:29:09.220
 somebody

00:29:09.220 --> 00:29:10.039
 who lives

00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:10.539
 a life of

00:29:10.539 --> 00:29:10.980
 gratitude

00:29:10.980 --> 00:29:11.960
 okay

00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:12.880
 we

00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:14.200
 we've all

00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:14.460
 known

00:29:14.460 --> 00:29:15.059
 what's the

00:29:15.059 --> 00:29:15.380
 opposite

00:29:15.380 --> 00:29:16.099
 of gratitude

00:29:16.099 --> 00:29:17.740
 complaining

00:29:17.740 --> 00:29:18.259
 and

00:29:18.259 --> 00:29:19.360
 C.S. Lewis

00:29:19.360 --> 00:29:19.880
 used the word

00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:20.380
 grumbling

00:29:20.380 --> 00:29:21.019
 that's probably

00:29:21.019 --> 00:29:21.339
 a more

00:29:21.339 --> 00:29:22.500
 old English

00:29:22.500 --> 00:29:22.799
 word

00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:23.059
 but

00:29:23.059 --> 00:29:23.740
 complaining

00:29:23.740 --> 00:29:24.259
 right

00:29:24.259 --> 00:29:24.920
 things are

00:29:24.920 --> 00:29:25.759
 never right

00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:26.120
 it's always

00:29:26.120 --> 00:29:26.720
 somebody else's

00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:27.019
 fault

00:29:27.019 --> 00:29:27.579
 this is no

00:29:27.579 --> 00:29:28.000
 good

00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:28.579
 you know

00:29:28.579 --> 00:29:29.259
 so and so

00:29:29.259 --> 00:29:29.599
 doesn't

00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:30.360
 my boss

00:29:30.360 --> 00:29:30.680
 doesn't

00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:31.380
 understand

00:29:31.380 --> 00:29:31.779
 my

00:29:31.779 --> 00:29:32.599
 talents

00:29:32.599 --> 00:29:32.960
 and my

00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:33.480
 desires

00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:34.480
 and how

00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:34.900
 great

00:29:34.900 --> 00:29:35.339
 I'm going

00:29:35.339 --> 00:29:35.579
 to make

00:29:35.579 --> 00:29:36.200
 this company

00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:36.720
 and he

00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:37.140
 keeps on

00:29:37.140 --> 00:29:37.620
 asking me

00:29:37.620 --> 00:29:37.799
 to do

00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:38.319
 these things

00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:38.640
 where I

00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:38.880
 should be

00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:39.039
 doing

00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:39.559
 strategy

00:29:39.559 --> 00:29:40.440
 you know

00:29:40.440 --> 00:29:41.660
 that's

00:29:41.660 --> 00:29:42.100
 you know

00:29:42.100 --> 00:29:42.600
 the fact

00:29:42.600 --> 00:29:43.059
 here is

00:29:43.059 --> 00:29:44.140
 grumbling

00:29:44.140 --> 00:29:45.539
 is a sign

00:29:45.539 --> 00:29:45.880
 that you

00:29:45.880 --> 00:29:46.279
 don't have

00:29:46.279 --> 00:29:47.120
 spiritual life

00:29:47.120 --> 00:29:47.940
 C.S. Lewis

00:29:47.940 --> 00:29:48.420
 wrote about

00:29:48.420 --> 00:29:48.980
 this in

00:29:48.980 --> 00:29:50.180
 his book

00:29:50.180 --> 00:29:50.539
 The Great

00:29:50.539 --> 00:29:51.000
 Divorce

00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:51.580
 and he

00:29:51.580 --> 00:29:51.980
 said

00:29:51.980 --> 00:29:53.279
 in it

00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:53.660
 he said

00:29:53.660 --> 00:29:54.539
 in all

00:29:54.539 --> 00:29:55.019
 of us

00:29:55.019 --> 00:29:55.940
 he said

00:29:55.940 --> 00:29:56.840
 hell begins

00:29:56.840 --> 00:29:57.660
 with a

00:29:57.660 --> 00:29:58.039
 grumbling

00:29:58.039 --> 00:29:58.480
 mood

00:29:58.480 --> 00:29:59.620
 always complaining

00:29:59.620 --> 00:30:00.200
 and always

00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:01.039
 blaming others

00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:02.000
 if you

00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:03.000
 and what

00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:03.680
 he's saying

00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:04.380
 is if you

00:30:04.380 --> 00:30:04.820
 don't deal

00:30:04.820 --> 00:30:05.259
 with it

00:30:05.259 --> 00:30:05.940
 soon

00:30:05.940 --> 00:30:06.840
 you have

00:30:06.840 --> 00:30:07.279
 nothing

00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:08.400
 but a

00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:08.779
 grumble

00:30:08.779 --> 00:30:11.779
 and finally

00:30:11.779 --> 00:30:12.360
 he said

00:30:12.360 --> 00:30:13.720
 but in

00:30:13.720 --> 00:30:14.200
 each of

00:30:14.200 --> 00:30:14.440
 us

00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:14.799
 there's

00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:15.140
 something

00:30:15.140 --> 00:30:15.700
 growing

00:30:15.700 --> 00:30:16.680
 which

00:30:16.680 --> 00:30:17.340
 will be

00:30:17.340 --> 00:30:17.759
 hell

00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:18.480
 unless

00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:19.019
 we nip

00:30:19.019 --> 00:30:19.259
 it in

00:30:19.259 --> 00:30:19.620
 the bud

00:30:19.620 --> 00:30:21.140
 that sense

00:30:21.140 --> 00:30:21.980
 of grumbling

00:30:21.980 --> 00:30:22.779
 that sense

00:30:22.779 --> 00:30:23.740
 of ingratitude

00:30:23.740 --> 00:30:24.400
 to God

00:30:24.400 --> 00:30:25.539
 is

00:30:25.539 --> 00:30:26.559
 growing

00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:26.940
 in all

00:30:26.940 --> 00:30:27.340
 of us

00:30:27.340 --> 00:30:28.640
 we always

00:30:28.640 --> 00:30:28.940
 want to

00:30:28.940 --> 00:30:29.360
 look around

00:30:29.360 --> 00:30:29.720
 and see

00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:30.019
 hey

00:30:30.019 --> 00:30:30.299
 you know

00:30:30.299 --> 00:30:30.559
 what

00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:31.180
 so and so

00:30:31.180 --> 00:30:31.519
 doesn't

00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:31.759
 really

00:30:31.759 --> 00:30:32.340
 understand

00:30:32.339 --> 00:30:33.379
 and you

00:30:33.379 --> 00:30:33.500
 know

00:30:33.500 --> 00:30:34.000
 so and so

00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:34.500
 is not

00:30:34.500 --> 00:30:35.519
 really

00:30:35.519 --> 00:30:36.359
 recognizing

00:30:36.359 --> 00:30:37.539
 me

00:30:37.539 --> 00:30:38.559
 but the

00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:39.139
 fact is

00:30:39.139 --> 00:30:40.240
 if you're

00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:40.959
 spirit filled

00:30:40.959 --> 00:30:42.000
 you don't

00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:42.639
 need that

00:30:42.639 --> 00:30:44.480
 maybe the

00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:45.480
 opposite of

00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:46.919
 gratitude

00:30:46.919 --> 00:30:48.099
 is neediness

00:30:48.099 --> 00:30:48.839
 you know

00:30:48.839 --> 00:30:49.799
 we all know

00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:50.439
 people that are

00:30:50.439 --> 00:30:51.519
 super needy

00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:51.799
 okay

00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:52.259
 I call them

00:30:52.259 --> 00:30:53.259
 emotional vampires

00:30:53.259 --> 00:30:54.339
 okay

00:30:54.339 --> 00:30:55.599
 and you can

00:30:55.599 --> 00:30:56.119
 have a coffee

00:30:56.119 --> 00:30:56.439
 with them

00:30:56.439 --> 00:30:56.740
 next minute

00:30:56.740 --> 00:30:57.159
 turns into

00:30:57.159 --> 00:30:57.939
 four hours

00:30:57.939 --> 00:30:59.259
 of why

00:30:59.259 --> 00:31:00.500
 life is not

00:31:00.500 --> 00:31:01.059
 good for me

00:31:01.059 --> 00:31:01.939
 and why

00:31:01.940 --> 00:31:02.240
 it's not

00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:02.720
 my fault

00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:04.019
 and it

00:31:04.019 --> 00:31:04.580
 is draining

00:31:04.580 --> 00:31:05.080
 that's why

00:31:05.080 --> 00:31:05.340
 it's an

00:31:05.340 --> 00:31:06.120
 emotional vampire

00:31:06.120 --> 00:31:06.420
 right

00:31:06.420 --> 00:31:06.640
 so

00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:08.240
 but the

00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:08.580
 fact here

00:31:08.580 --> 00:31:08.960
 is if

00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:09.160
 you're

00:31:09.160 --> 00:31:09.720
 spirit filled

00:31:09.720 --> 00:31:10.299
 you're not

00:31:10.299 --> 00:31:10.620
 going to

00:31:10.620 --> 00:31:11.000
 be an

00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:11.400
 emotional

00:31:11.400 --> 00:31:11.940
 vampire

00:31:11.940 --> 00:31:13.080
 okay

00:31:13.080 --> 00:31:13.740
 if you

00:31:13.740 --> 00:31:13.980
 want to

00:31:13.980 --> 00:31:14.519
 break out

00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:15.180
 of your

00:31:15.180 --> 00:31:16.000
 emotional

00:31:16.000 --> 00:31:16.880
 vampire-ness

00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:18.500
 spirit filled

00:31:18.500 --> 00:31:19.880
 is the

00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:20.240
 answer

00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:21.539
 we've

00:31:21.539 --> 00:31:22.500
 also known

00:31:22.500 --> 00:31:23.220
 people that

00:31:23.220 --> 00:31:24.380
 are always

00:31:24.380 --> 00:31:25.059
 full of joy

00:31:25.059 --> 00:31:25.960
 despite their

00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:26.600
 circumstances

00:31:26.600 --> 00:31:27.080
 right

00:31:27.080 --> 00:31:28.440
 they have

00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:28.860
 this sense

00:31:28.860 --> 00:31:29.420
 of optimism

00:31:29.420 --> 00:31:30.120
 about them

00:31:30.120 --> 00:31:31.200
 they're poised

00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:32.220
 that you

00:31:32.220 --> 00:31:32.400
 know

00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:33.700
 probably not

00:31:33.700 --> 00:31:34.100
 a word we

00:31:34.100 --> 00:31:34.559
 use a lot

00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:35.019
 nowadays

00:31:35.019 --> 00:31:36.580
 they're poised

00:31:36.580 --> 00:31:36.960
 and they're

00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:37.640
 in control

00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:38.779
 and when

00:31:38.779 --> 00:31:39.840
 bad things

00:31:39.840 --> 00:31:40.279
 happen in

00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:40.799
 their life

00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:41.600
 they have

00:31:41.600 --> 00:31:42.340
 emotional

00:31:42.340 --> 00:31:42.960
 ballast

00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:43.680
 you know

00:31:43.680 --> 00:31:43.960
 what a

00:31:43.960 --> 00:31:44.460
 ballast is

00:31:44.460 --> 00:31:44.880
 is things

00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:45.580
 that in a

00:31:45.580 --> 00:31:45.960
 boat that

00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:46.299
 keeps you

00:31:46.299 --> 00:31:46.840
 afloat

00:31:46.840 --> 00:31:47.279
 right

00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:47.940
 so they

00:31:47.940 --> 00:31:48.220
 have this

00:31:48.220 --> 00:31:48.779
 emotional

00:31:48.779 --> 00:31:49.319
 ballast

00:31:49.319 --> 00:31:49.720
 that they

00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:50.600
 can stay

00:31:50.600 --> 00:31:51.220
 afloat

00:31:51.220 --> 00:31:52.180
 in stormy

00:31:52.180 --> 00:31:52.860
 situations

00:31:52.860 --> 00:31:53.480
 okay

00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:55.059
 so don't

00:31:55.059 --> 00:31:55.360
 we all

00:31:55.360 --> 00:31:55.900
 want that

00:31:55.900 --> 00:31:56.440
 don't we all

00:31:56.440 --> 00:31:57.019
 want kind of

00:31:57.019 --> 00:31:57.480
 poised

00:31:57.480 --> 00:31:58.019
 emotional

00:31:58.019 --> 00:31:58.539
 ballast

00:31:58.539 --> 00:31:59.079
 and a

00:31:59.079 --> 00:31:59.279
 joy

00:31:59.279 --> 00:31:59.659
 that is

00:31:59.659 --> 00:32:00.539
 absent

00:32:00.539 --> 00:32:01.159
 from

00:32:01.159 --> 00:32:01.899
 that

00:32:01.899 --> 00:32:02.159
 you're

00:32:02.159 --> 00:32:02.740
 independent

00:32:02.740 --> 00:32:03.180
 I mean

00:32:03.180 --> 00:32:03.519
 from

00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:03.859
 our

00:32:03.859 --> 00:32:04.539
 circumstances

00:32:04.539 --> 00:32:05.539
 so the

00:32:05.539 --> 00:32:05.980
 last and

00:32:05.980 --> 00:32:06.220
 certainly

00:32:06.220 --> 00:32:07.759
 key piece

00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:08.799
 is how

00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:09.619
 do we get

00:32:09.619 --> 00:32:10.740
 to be

00:32:10.740 --> 00:32:11.399
 spirit filled

00:32:11.399 --> 00:32:11.899
 okay

00:32:11.899 --> 00:32:12.759
 so here's the

00:32:12.759 --> 00:32:13.259
 application

00:32:13.259 --> 00:32:13.859
 how do we

00:32:13.859 --> 00:32:14.399
 and

00:32:14.399 --> 00:32:15.639
 we're told

00:32:15.639 --> 00:32:17.859
 there are three

00:32:17.859 --> 00:32:18.740
 things we've got to do

00:32:18.740 --> 00:32:19.440
 okay

00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:21.619
 as I search the

00:32:21.619 --> 00:32:21.899
 scripture

00:32:21.899 --> 00:32:22.799
 one is

00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:24.180
 to do

00:32:24.180 --> 00:32:25.080
 and two

00:32:25.080 --> 00:32:25.700
 is things

00:32:25.700 --> 00:32:26.080
 to watch

00:32:26.080 --> 00:32:26.539
 out for

00:32:26.539 --> 00:32:27.400
 the first

00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:27.820
 thing is

00:32:27.820 --> 00:32:28.820
 Romans

00:32:28.820 --> 00:32:29.980
 8 13

00:32:29.980 --> 00:32:30.759
 said

00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:31.860
 if you live

00:32:31.860 --> 00:32:32.460
 according to the

00:32:32.460 --> 00:32:33.060
 flesh you will

00:32:33.060 --> 00:32:33.380
 die

00:32:33.380 --> 00:32:34.140
 but if the

00:32:34.140 --> 00:32:34.580
 spirit

00:32:34.580 --> 00:32:36.080
 but by the

00:32:36.080 --> 00:32:37.039
 spirit you put

00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:37.519
 to death

00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:38.060
 the deeds

00:32:38.060 --> 00:32:38.600
 of the body

00:32:38.600 --> 00:32:40.060
 what this is

00:32:40.060 --> 00:32:40.480
 saying is

00:32:40.480 --> 00:32:41.279
 put to death

00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:42.019
 sin

00:32:42.019 --> 00:32:43.340
 that

00:32:43.340 --> 00:32:44.360
 sounds like

00:32:44.360 --> 00:32:45.519
 a seriously

00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:46.940
 difficult

00:32:46.940 --> 00:32:47.580
 task

00:32:47.580 --> 00:32:48.620
 what does

00:32:48.620 --> 00:32:49.360
 put to death

00:32:49.360 --> 00:32:50.120
 sin in our

00:32:50.120 --> 00:32:50.779
 lives mean

00:32:50.779 --> 00:32:51.259
 okay

00:32:51.259 --> 00:32:51.940
 now I'm going

00:32:51.940 --> 00:32:52.180
 to give you

00:32:52.180 --> 00:32:52.700
 a step by

00:32:52.700 --> 00:32:53.019
 step

00:32:53.019 --> 00:32:53.640
 it's actually

00:32:53.640 --> 00:32:55.080
 it's not

00:32:55.080 --> 00:32:55.780
 one big

00:32:55.780 --> 00:32:56.120
 thing

00:32:56.120 --> 00:32:57.660
 it's a

00:32:57.660 --> 00:32:58.060
 journey

00:32:58.060 --> 00:32:58.940
 and it's a

00:32:58.940 --> 00:32:59.340
 constant

00:32:59.340 --> 00:33:00.280
 small things

00:33:00.280 --> 00:33:00.820
 that we do

00:33:00.820 --> 00:33:01.240
 okay

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:01.920
 so

00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:03.360
 put to death

00:33:03.360 --> 00:33:04.040
 is more

00:33:04.040 --> 00:33:05.460
 than repentance

00:33:05.460 --> 00:33:06.080
 it's more

00:33:06.080 --> 00:33:06.420
 than just

00:33:06.420 --> 00:33:06.960
 asking for

00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:07.340
 forgiveness

00:33:07.340 --> 00:33:07.980
 so normally

00:33:07.980 --> 00:33:08.780
 you know

00:33:08.780 --> 00:33:09.540
 we do

00:33:09.540 --> 00:33:09.900
 something

00:33:09.900 --> 00:33:10.440
 we know

00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:10.840
 sin

00:33:10.840 --> 00:33:11.280
 we come

00:33:11.280 --> 00:33:11.620
 to God

00:33:11.620 --> 00:33:11.960
 and say

00:33:11.960 --> 00:33:12.240
 God

00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:12.700
 we're really

00:33:12.700 --> 00:33:13.120
 sorry

00:33:13.120 --> 00:33:13.580
 I shouldn't

00:33:13.580 --> 00:33:13.820
 have done

00:33:13.820 --> 00:33:14.120
 that

00:33:14.120 --> 00:33:15.700
 I'm facing

00:33:15.700 --> 00:33:16.220
 the consequence

00:33:16.220 --> 00:33:16.740
 now

00:33:16.740 --> 00:33:17.520
 but you know

00:33:17.520 --> 00:33:17.740
 what

00:33:17.740 --> 00:33:18.780
 I'm asking

00:33:18.780 --> 00:33:19.620
 for forgiveness

00:33:19.620 --> 00:33:20.440
 and we are

00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:20.820
 assured

00:33:20.820 --> 00:33:21.880
 of forgiveness

00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:22.600
 because of

00:33:22.600 --> 00:33:23.080
 what Christ

00:33:23.080 --> 00:33:23.420
 has done

00:33:23.420 --> 00:33:23.880
 on the cross

00:33:23.880 --> 00:33:24.340
 for us

00:33:24.340 --> 00:33:25.120
 and then

00:33:25.120 --> 00:33:25.440
 we move

00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:25.720
 on

00:33:25.720 --> 00:33:26.700
 and then

00:33:26.700 --> 00:33:26.960
 we sin

00:33:26.960 --> 00:33:27.259
 again

00:33:27.259 --> 00:33:27.820
 and then

00:33:27.820 --> 00:33:28.080
 we go

00:33:28.080 --> 00:33:28.920
 into repentance

00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:30.000
 stage two

00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:30.660
 right

00:33:30.660 --> 00:33:31.519
 and we move

00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:31.720
 on

00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:33.120
 what put to

00:33:33.120 --> 00:33:33.960
 death means

00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:34.300
 here

00:33:34.300 --> 00:33:35.039
 and the

00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:35.519
 King James

00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:35.860
 version

00:33:35.860 --> 00:33:36.440
 used an old

00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:36.820
 word called

00:33:36.820 --> 00:33:37.600
 mortification

00:33:37.600 --> 00:33:38.740
 but put to

00:33:38.740 --> 00:33:39.480
 death as being

00:33:39.480 --> 00:33:40.279
 proactive in

00:33:40.279 --> 00:33:40.720
 dealing with

00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:41.200
 our sins

00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:42.519
 how do we

00:33:42.519 --> 00:33:43.560
 proactively deal

00:33:43.560 --> 00:33:44.360
 with our sins

00:33:44.360 --> 00:33:44.980
 okay

00:33:44.980 --> 00:33:47.380
 firstly

00:33:47.380 --> 00:33:48.160
 the first thing

00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:48.539
 you have to do

00:33:48.539 --> 00:33:50.180
 is I highly

00:33:50.180 --> 00:33:50.880
 recommend a

00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:51.160
 journal

00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:51.940
 I highly

00:33:51.940 --> 00:33:52.600
 recommend you

00:33:52.600 --> 00:33:53.140
 get a book

00:33:53.140 --> 00:33:53.840
 a notebook

00:33:53.840 --> 00:33:54.820
 and write

00:33:54.820 --> 00:33:55.180
 this down

00:33:55.180 --> 00:33:56.100
 something happens

00:33:56.100 --> 00:33:56.940
 magically

00:33:56.940 --> 00:33:58.279
 when you write

00:33:58.279 --> 00:33:59.060
 something down

00:33:59.060 --> 00:34:00.360
 it becomes

00:34:00.360 --> 00:34:01.279
 much more real

00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:02.140
 and you process

00:34:02.140 --> 00:34:02.900
 it in a different

00:34:02.900 --> 00:34:03.279
 way

00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:03.860
 okay

00:34:03.860 --> 00:34:04.740
 don't even use

00:34:04.740 --> 00:34:05.580
 notes in your

00:34:05.580 --> 00:34:06.320
 iPhone or your

00:34:06.320 --> 00:34:07.200
 Samsung and type

00:34:07.200 --> 00:34:07.340
 it

00:34:07.340 --> 00:34:08.659
 get a piece of

00:34:08.659 --> 00:34:09.559
 paper and write

00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:10.159
 this thing down

00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:11.599
 identify the sin

00:34:11.599 --> 00:34:12.500

 Christ be

00:34:57.040 --> 00:34:58.140
 saddened

00:34:58.140 --> 00:34:58.700
 why would

00:34:58.700 --> 00:34:59.160
 Christ be

00:34:59.160 --> 00:35:00.060
 saddened

00:35:00.060 --> 00:35:01.340
 by me

00:35:01.340 --> 00:35:02.340
 being stuck

00:35:02.340 --> 00:35:02.680
 in this

00:35:02.680 --> 00:35:02.920
 sin

00:35:02.920 --> 00:35:05.540
 also journal

 what's the

00:35:10.220 --> 00:35:10.720
 motivation

00:35:10.720 --> 00:35:11.320
 behind it

00:35:11.320 --> 00:35:11.980
 why would

00:35:11.980 --> 00:35:12.380
 Christ

00:35:12.380 --> 00:35:13.360
 be saddened

00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:13.820
 by it

00:35:13.820 --> 00:35:14.780
 okay

00:35:14.780 --> 00:35:16.360
 and then

00:35:16.360 --> 00:35:17.220
 why doesn't

00:35:17.220 --> 00:35:17.700
 Christ want

00:35:17.700 --> 00:35:18.019
 me to be

00:35:18.019 --> 00:35:19.100
 stuck in

00:35:19.100 --> 00:35:19.720
 this cycle

00:35:19.720 --> 00:35:20.200
 of sin

00:35:20.200 --> 00:35:21.580
 you know

00:35:21.580 --> 00:35:23.080
 and then

00:35:23.080 --> 00:35:23.860
 why is it

00:35:23.860 --> 00:35:24.480
 bad for me

00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:25.400
 simple

00:35:25.400 --> 00:35:26.780
 why is this

00:35:26.780 --> 00:35:27.160
 sin bad

00:35:27.160 --> 00:35:27.460
 for me

00:35:27.460 --> 00:35:27.800
 you say

00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:28.059
 well

00:35:28.059 --> 00:35:28.980
 it's not

00:35:28.980 --> 00:35:29.780
 you know

00:35:29.780 --> 00:35:30.200
 I quite

00:35:30.200 --> 00:35:30.760
 enjoy it

00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:31.180
 at the

00:35:31.180 --> 00:35:31.460
 moment

00:35:31.460 --> 00:35:32.240
 but

00:35:32.240 --> 00:35:33.080
 for the

00:35:33.080 --> 00:35:33.380
 long

00:35:33.380 --> 00:35:34.000
 and for

00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:34.400
 the medium

00:35:34.400 --> 00:35:34.780
 and longer

00:35:34.780 --> 00:35:35.080
 term

00:35:35.080 --> 00:35:35.960
 why would

00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:36.519
 this sin

00:35:36.519 --> 00:35:36.920
 have an

00:35:36.920 --> 00:35:37.240
 impact

00:35:37.240 --> 00:35:37.740
 on me

00:35:37.740 --> 00:35:38.980
 and those

00:35:38.980 --> 00:35:39.600
 around me

00:35:39.600 --> 00:35:40.600
 okay

00:35:40.600 --> 00:35:41.000
 so

00:35:41.000 --> 00:35:42.079
 it's

00:35:42.079 --> 00:35:42.400
 simple

00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:42.679
 just

00:35:42.679 --> 00:35:43.599
 five

00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:44.019
 points

00:35:44.019 --> 00:35:46.599
 but

00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:47.039
 write this

00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:47.199
 down

00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:47.579
 this

00:35:47.579 --> 00:35:47.820
 is

00:35:47.820 --> 00:35:48.019
 the

00:35:48.019 --> 00:35:48.519
 process

00:35:48.519 --> 00:35:48.739
 of

00:35:48.739 --> 00:35:48.980
 putting

00:35:48.980 --> 00:35:49.460
 to death

00:35:49.460 --> 00:35:49.860
 sin

00:35:49.860 --> 00:35:50.820
 and

00:35:50.820 --> 00:35:51.119
 then

00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:51.820
 search

00:35:51.820 --> 00:35:52.519
 and read

00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:53.019
 the scripture

00:35:53.019 --> 00:35:54.000
 and look

00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:54.199
 at the

00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:54.460
 Bible

00:35:54.460 --> 00:35:54.900
 and

00:35:54.900 --> 00:35:55.659
 the

00:35:55.659 --> 00:35:56.079
 answers

00:35:56.079 --> 00:35:56.880
 of all

00:35:56.880 --> 00:35:57.219
 those

00:35:57.219 --> 00:35:57.739
 questions

00:35:57.739 --> 00:35:58.519
 are in

00:35:58.519 --> 00:35:58.940
 the Bible

00:35:58.940 --> 00:35:59.820
 and you

00:35:59.820 --> 00:36:00.159
 can search

00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:00.659
 and ask

00:36:00.659 --> 00:36:00.960
 the Holy

00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:01.179
 Spirit

00:36:01.179 --> 00:36:01.559
 to speak

00:36:01.559 --> 00:36:01.860
 to you

00:36:01.860 --> 00:36:02.300
 and reveal

00:36:02.300 --> 00:36:02.619
 to you

00:36:02.619 --> 00:36:03.420
 why is

00:36:03.420 --> 00:36:03.719
 Christ

00:36:03.719 --> 00:36:04.159
 saddened

00:36:04.159 --> 00:36:04.539
 by this

00:36:04.539 --> 00:36:04.760
 sin

00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:06.600
 who

00:36:06.600 --> 00:36:07.360
 am I

00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:07.880
 impacting

00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:08.820
 around me

00:36:08.820 --> 00:36:09.360
 with this

00:36:09.360 --> 00:36:09.600
 sin

00:36:09.600 --> 00:36:10.860
 apart from

00:36:10.860 --> 00:36:11.240
 myself

00:36:11.240 --> 00:36:11.540
 you're

00:36:11.540 --> 00:36:11.800
 certainly

00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:12.240
 impacting

00:36:12.240 --> 00:36:12.700
 yourself

00:36:12.700 --> 00:36:13.320
 okay

00:36:13.320 --> 00:36:14.460
 and then

00:36:14.460 --> 00:36:15.540
 journal that

00:36:15.540 --> 00:36:15.840
 I would

00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:16.140
 just say

00:36:16.140 --> 00:36:16.760
 take time

00:36:16.760 --> 00:36:17.280
 and this

00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:17.700
 is not a

00:36:17.700 --> 00:36:18.120
 one off

00:36:18.120 --> 00:36:18.480
 I'm gonna

00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:18.900
 get it

00:36:18.900 --> 00:36:19.100
 done

00:36:19.100 --> 00:36:19.420
 and then

00:36:19.420 --> 00:36:19.640
 boom

00:36:19.640 --> 00:36:20.340
 I'm done

00:36:20.340 --> 00:36:21.440
 this is a

00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:21.760
 daily

00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:22.380
 process

00:36:22.380 --> 00:36:23.140
 what we are

00:36:23.140 --> 00:36:23.600
 told in the

00:36:23.600 --> 00:36:23.860
 scripture

00:36:23.860 --> 00:36:24.420
 is put

00:36:24.420 --> 00:36:24.960
 to death

00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:25.520
 sin in our

00:36:25.520 --> 00:36:25.800
 lives

00:36:25.800 --> 00:36:26.280
 daily

00:36:26.280 --> 00:36:27.460
 okay

00:36:27.460 --> 00:36:28.220
 so take

00:36:28.220 --> 00:36:28.680
 time

00:36:28.680 --> 00:36:29.320
 and just

00:36:29.320 --> 00:36:29.740
 do it

00:36:29.740 --> 00:36:30.180
 maybe you

00:36:30.180 --> 00:36:30.680
 can't do it

00:36:30.680 --> 00:36:31.500
 every day

00:36:31.500 --> 00:36:32.160
 maybe you

00:36:32.160 --> 00:36:33.020
 just do it

00:36:33.020 --> 00:36:33.640
 twice a week

00:36:33.640 --> 00:36:34.260
 schedule

00:36:34.260 --> 00:36:34.720
 twice a

00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:34.859
 week

00:36:34.859 --> 00:36:35.559
 just five

00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:35.919
 minutes

00:36:35.919 --> 00:36:36.480
 in your

00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:37.500
 journal

00:36:37.500 --> 00:36:38.679
 just do

00:36:38.679 --> 00:36:39.279
 look at

00:36:39.279 --> 00:36:39.980
 what are

00:36:39.980 --> 00:36:40.399
 the sins

00:36:40.399 --> 00:36:40.980
 this last

00:36:40.980 --> 00:36:41.279
 week

00:36:41.279 --> 00:36:41.679
 that has

00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:42.319
 been bothering

00:36:42.319 --> 00:36:42.679
 me

00:36:42.679 --> 00:36:43.980
 and how

00:36:43.980 --> 00:36:44.439
 can I

00:36:44.439 --> 00:36:45.059
 get ahead

00:36:45.059 --> 00:36:45.339
 of it

00:36:45.339 --> 00:36:45.739
 how can

00:36:45.739 --> 00:36:46.099
 I deal

00:36:46.099 --> 00:36:46.379
 with it

00:36:46.379 --> 00:36:47.039
 before it

00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:48.099
 overwhelms

00:36:48.099 --> 00:36:48.359
 me

00:36:48.359 --> 00:36:48.859
 okay

00:36:48.859 --> 00:36:50.319
 now because

00:36:50.319 --> 00:36:50.939
 I think

00:36:50.939 --> 00:36:52.699
 the key

00:36:52.699 --> 00:36:53.419
 thing here

00:36:53.419 --> 00:36:54.299
 is understanding

00:36:54.299 --> 00:36:54.819
 how that

00:36:54.819 --> 00:36:55.859
 sin grieves

00:36:55.859 --> 00:36:56.399
 God

00:36:56.399 --> 00:36:57.539
 okay

00:36:57.539 --> 00:36:57.919
 what does

00:36:57.919 --> 00:36:58.159
 that mean

00:36:58.159 --> 00:36:58.959
 make saddens

00:36:58.959 --> 00:36:59.319
 God

00:36:59.319 --> 00:36:59.759
 okay

00:36:59.759 --> 00:37:00.879
 so I'm

00:37:00.879 --> 00:37:00.980
 gonna

00:37:00.980 --> 00:37:02.199
 one thing

00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:02.579
 we do

00:37:02.579 --> 00:37:03.199
 two things

00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:03.439
 we gotta

00:37:03.439 --> 00:37:03.919
 watch out

00:37:03.919 --> 00:37:04.219
 for

00:37:04.219 --> 00:37:05.539
 the key

00:37:05.539 --> 00:37:06.179
 of overcoming

00:37:06.179 --> 00:37:06.659
 sin

00:37:06.659 --> 00:37:07.500
 is understanding

00:37:07.500 --> 00:37:07.980
 how that

00:37:07.980 --> 00:37:08.319
 sin

00:37:08.319 --> 00:37:09.599
 grieves

00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:10.619
 the one

00:37:10.619 --> 00:37:11.480
 who died

00:37:11.480 --> 00:37:12.019
 on the cross

00:37:12.019 --> 00:37:12.579
 for us

00:37:12.579 --> 00:37:13.079
 okay

00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:14.059
 so

00:37:14.059 --> 00:37:15.359
 there's some

00:37:15.359 --> 00:37:15.879
 parents out

00:37:15.879 --> 00:37:16.119
 here

00:37:16.119 --> 00:37:16.919
 okay

00:37:16.919 --> 00:37:18.319
 if you're

00:37:18.319 --> 00:37:18.599
 not a

00:37:18.599 --> 00:37:18.859
 parent

00:37:18.859 --> 00:37:19.579
 you have

00:37:19.579 --> 00:37:20.039
 parents

00:37:20.039 --> 00:37:20.779
 okay

00:37:20.779 --> 00:37:21.659
 so

00:37:21.659 --> 00:37:23.480
 I'm just

00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:23.919
 gonna use a

00:37:23.919 --> 00:37:24.259
 parenting

00:37:24.259 --> 00:37:24.839
 example

00:37:24.839 --> 00:37:25.579
 okay

00:37:25.579 --> 00:37:26.319
 maybe you

00:37:26.319 --> 00:37:26.719
 are the

00:37:26.719 --> 00:37:28.739
 cause of

00:37:28.739 --> 00:37:29.359
 this parenting

00:37:29.359 --> 00:37:29.939
 dilemma

00:37:29.940 --> 00:37:31.200
 but here

00:37:31.200 --> 00:37:32.220
 if you're

00:37:32.220 --> 00:37:32.720
 a parent

00:37:32.720 --> 00:37:34.820
 you've

00:37:34.820 --> 00:37:35.599
 spent time

00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:37.019
 in sacrificing

00:37:37.019 --> 00:37:38.079
 and nurturing

00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:39.599
 your child

00:37:39.599 --> 00:37:40.639
 with a

00:37:40.639 --> 00:37:41.280
 hope of

00:37:41.280 --> 00:37:41.900
 this child

00:37:41.900 --> 00:37:42.500
 achieve

00:37:42.500 --> 00:37:43.280
 his or her

00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:43.780
 potential

00:37:43.780 --> 00:37:44.760
 and this

00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:45.179
 child have

00:37:45.179 --> 00:37:45.760
 joy in

00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:46.380
 their life

00:37:46.380 --> 00:37:47.340
 and so

00:37:47.340 --> 00:37:47.700
 forth

00:37:47.700 --> 00:37:47.960
 right

00:37:47.960 --> 00:37:48.780
 now

00:37:48.780 --> 00:37:49.980
 you may

00:37:49.980 --> 00:37:50.320
 not have

00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:50.740
 experienced

00:37:50.740 --> 00:37:51.260
 this

00:37:51.260 --> 00:37:52.099
 but if

00:37:52.099 --> 00:37:52.400
 you have

00:37:52.400 --> 00:37:52.840
 a three

00:37:52.840 --> 00:37:53.179
 year old

00:37:53.179 --> 00:37:53.639
 you probably

00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:54.179
 have

00:37:54.179 --> 00:37:56.019
 from now

00:37:56.019 --> 00:37:57.219
 at some

00:37:57.219 --> 00:37:57.579
 point

00:37:57.579 --> 00:37:58.839
 the child

00:37:58.839 --> 00:37:59.319
 whatever

00:37:59.319 --> 00:37:59.980
 advice you

00:37:59.980 --> 00:38:00.339
 give them

00:38:00.339 --> 00:38:00.759
 they're just

00:38:00.759 --> 00:38:01.139
 gonna do

00:38:01.139 --> 00:38:01.619
 the opposite

00:38:01.619 --> 00:38:03.259
 okay

00:38:03.259 --> 00:38:04.259
 not only

00:38:04.259 --> 00:38:04.559
 will they

00:38:04.559 --> 00:38:04.819
 do the

00:38:04.819 --> 00:38:05.139
 opposite

00:38:05.139 --> 00:38:05.599
 they will

00:38:05.599 --> 00:38:06.019
 stop

00:38:06.019 --> 00:38:06.440
 at a

00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:06.739
 moment

00:38:06.739 --> 00:38:08.019
 turn around

00:38:08.019 --> 00:38:09.179
 and look

00:38:09.179 --> 00:38:09.639
 at you

00:38:09.639 --> 00:38:10.579
 and say

00:38:10.579 --> 00:38:11.940
 dad

00:38:11.940 --> 00:38:13.799
 the reason

00:38:13.799 --> 00:38:14.339
 you don't

00:38:14.339 --> 00:38:15.019
 want me

00:38:15.019 --> 00:38:15.980
 to stay

00:38:15.980 --> 00:38:16.319
 out

00:38:16.319 --> 00:38:16.839
 to three

00:38:16.839 --> 00:38:17.079
 in the

00:38:17.079 --> 00:38:17.440
 morning

00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:18.179
 is you

00:38:18.179 --> 00:38:18.619

00:38:18.619 --> 00:38:19.139
 not want

00:38:19.139 --> 00:38:19.379
 me to

00:38:19.379 --> 00:38:19.879
 be happy

00:38:19.879 --> 00:38:22.159
 I'm

00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:22.879
 five years

00:38:22.879 --> 00:38:23.219
 old

00:38:23.219 --> 00:38:23.919
 come on

00:38:23.920 --> 00:38:25.579
 okay

00:38:25.579 --> 00:38:26.340
 you just

00:38:26.340 --> 00:38:26.680
 don't want

00:38:26.680 --> 00:38:26.880
 me to

00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:27.139
 be happy

00:38:27.139 --> 00:38:27.539
 you want

00:38:27.539 --> 00:38:27.780
 me to

00:38:27.780 --> 00:38:28.079
 live a

00:38:28.079 --> 00:38:28.320
 miserable

00:38:28.320 --> 00:38:28.800
 life

00:38:28.800 --> 00:38:29.900
 my

00:38:29.900 --> 00:38:30.360
 sister's

00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:30.599
 two

00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:31.079
 I can

00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:31.519
 understand

00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:31.900
 for her

00:38:31.900 --> 00:38:32.280
 she should

00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:32.539
 not be

00:38:32.539 --> 00:38:32.780
 out to

00:38:32.780 --> 00:38:32.980
 three

00:38:32.980 --> 00:38:33.639
 but I

00:38:33.639 --> 00:38:33.800
 am

00:38:33.800 --> 00:38:34.360
 five

00:38:34.360 --> 00:38:34.920
 okay

00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:35.880
 you just

00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:37.880
 maybe

00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:38.440
 you haven't

00:38:38.440 --> 00:38:38.980
 heard that

00:38:38.980 --> 00:38:39.579
 maybe

00:38:39.579 --> 00:38:39.840
 you've

00:38:39.840 --> 00:38:40.059
 said

00:38:40.059 --> 00:38:40.440
 that

00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:41.240
 okay

00:38:41.240 --> 00:38:41.820
 now

00:38:41.820 --> 00:38:42.800
 take

00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:43.260
 that

00:38:43.260 --> 00:38:43.559
 it's

00:38:43.559 --> 00:38:43.680
 an

00:38:43.680 --> 00:38:44.000
 imperfect

00:38:44.000 --> 00:38:44.579
 example

00:38:44.579 --> 00:38:45.440
 because

00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:46.659
 parents

00:38:46.659 --> 00:38:46.980
 are

00:38:46.980 --> 00:38:47.360
 flawed

00:38:47.360 --> 00:38:47.780
 human

00:38:47.780 --> 00:38:48.119
 parents

00:38:48.119 --> 00:38:48.280
 are

00:38:48.280 --> 00:38:48.559
 flawed

00:38:48.559 --> 00:38:49.200
 and

00:38:49.200 --> 00:38:49.500
 we

00:38:49.500 --> 00:38:49.720
 have

00:38:49.720 --> 00:38:51.200
 flawed

00:38:51.200 --> 00:38:51.599
 motives

00:38:51.599 --> 00:38:52.200
 and we

00:38:52.200 --> 00:38:52.400
 don't

00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:52.740
 have full

00:38:52.740 --> 00:38:53.119
 knowledge

00:38:53.119 --> 00:38:53.799
 but when

00:38:53.799 --> 00:38:54.259
 God

00:38:54.259 --> 00:38:54.719
 wants us

00:38:54.719 --> 00:38:55.079
 to do

00:38:55.079 --> 00:38:55.480
 something

00:38:55.480 --> 00:38:55.960
 gives us

00:38:55.960 --> 00:38:56.400
 advice

00:38:56.400 --> 00:38:56.799
 to do

00:38:56.799 --> 00:38:57.159
 something

00:38:57.159 --> 00:38:57.739
 and we

00:38:57.739 --> 00:38:58.259
 turn around

00:38:58.259 --> 00:38:58.539
 and say

00:38:58.539 --> 00:38:58.880
 God

00:38:58.880 --> 00:38:59.400
 I'm not

00:38:59.400 --> 00:38:59.659
 going to

00:38:59.659 --> 00:39:00.159
 do that

00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:00.559
 because

00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:01.000
 you just

00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:01.400
 don't want

00:39:01.400 --> 00:39:01.639
 me to

00:39:01.639 --> 00:39:02.199
 be happy

00:39:02.199 --> 00:39:03.679
 okay

00:39:03.679 --> 00:39:04.359
 and we

00:39:04.359 --> 00:39:04.719
 do that

00:39:04.719 --> 00:39:05.239
 every day

00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:06.859
 the sad

00:39:06.859 --> 00:39:07.099
 thing is

00:39:07.099 --> 00:39:07.359
 we do

00:39:07.359 --> 00:39:07.519
 that

00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:07.960
 every day

00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:08.960
 and not

00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:09.619
 only did

00:39:09.619 --> 00:39:09.880
 they

00:39:09.880 --> 00:39:10.500
 you know

00:39:10.500 --> 00:39:11.420
 give up

00:39:11.420 --> 00:39:12.719
 a little

00:39:12.719 --> 00:39:13.079
 something

00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:13.699
 for us

00:39:13.699 --> 00:39:14.500
 God

00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.940
 gave up

00:39:14.940 --> 00:39:15.460
 his son

00:39:15.460 --> 00:39:16.579
 paid

00:39:16.579 --> 00:39:17.339
 that price

00:39:17.339 --> 00:39:18.000
 and we

00:39:18.000 --> 00:39:18.719
 turn around

00:39:18.719 --> 00:39:19.579
 and we

00:39:19.579 --> 00:39:19.960
 lift our

00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:20.400
 nose

00:39:20.400 --> 00:39:20.980
 and we

00:39:20.980 --> 00:39:21.360
 wave our

00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:21.559
 finger

00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:21.960
 at him

00:39:21.960 --> 00:39:22.840
 and say

00:39:22.840 --> 00:39:24.039
 you don't

00:39:24.039 --> 00:39:24.340
 want me

00:39:24.340 --> 00:39:24.599
 to do

00:39:24.599 --> 00:39:24.840
 this

00:39:24.840 --> 00:39:25.160
 thing

00:39:25.160 --> 00:39:25.980
 it's

00:39:25.980 --> 00:39:26.380
 cramping

00:39:26.380 --> 00:39:26.559
 my

00:39:26.559 --> 00:39:27.079
 lifestyle

00:39:27.079 --> 00:39:28.019
 you just

00:39:28.019 --> 00:39:28.220
 don't

00:39:28.220 --> 00:39:28.700
 love me

00:39:28.700 --> 00:39:29.160
 and you

00:39:29.160 --> 00:39:29.320
 don't

00:39:29.320 --> 00:39:29.579
 want me

00:39:29.579 --> 00:39:29.820
 to be

00:39:29.820 --> 00:39:30.099
 happy

00:39:30.099 --> 00:39:30.539
 and that's

00:39:30.539 --> 00:39:30.780
 what we

00:39:30.780 --> 00:39:30.900
 do

00:39:30.900 --> 00:39:31.300
 every day

00:39:31.300 --> 00:39:31.840
 and you

00:39:31.840 --> 00:39:32.099
 got to

00:39:32.099 --> 00:39:32.740
 take that

00:39:32.740 --> 00:39:34.139
 and put

00:39:34.139 --> 00:39:34.700
 it on top

00:39:34.700 --> 00:39:35.300
 of when

00:39:35.300 --> 00:39:35.840
 you're trying

00:39:35.840 --> 00:39:36.440
 to put

00:39:36.440 --> 00:39:36.760
 to death

00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:37.220
 the sin

00:39:37.220 --> 00:39:38.320
 and think

00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:38.900
 through it

00:39:38.900 --> 00:39:39.760
 in that

00:39:39.760 --> 00:39:40.340
 context

00:39:40.340 --> 00:39:40.900
 and it

00:39:40.900 --> 00:39:41.320
 will give

00:39:41.320 --> 00:39:42.180
 you a

00:39:42.180 --> 00:39:42.559
 whole new

00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:43.000
 perspective

00:39:43.000 --> 00:39:43.400
 of the

00:39:43.400 --> 00:39:43.579
 sin

00:39:43.579 --> 00:39:44.519
 we all

00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:44.840
 know

00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:45.619
 the sin

00:39:45.619 --> 00:39:46.119
 is wrong

00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:46.579
 we all

00:39:46.579 --> 00:39:46.740
 know

00:39:46.740 --> 00:39:47.119
 it's not

00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:47.599
 good for

00:39:47.599 --> 00:39:47.880
 us

00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:48.440
 so it's

00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:51.139
 you know

00:39:51.139 --> 00:39:51.860
 we've

00:39:51.860 --> 00:39:52.460
 known that

00:39:52.460 --> 00:39:53.039
 and we

00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:53.400
 haven't been

00:39:53.400 --> 00:39:53.740
 able to

00:39:53.740 --> 00:39:54.079
 stop

00:39:54.079 --> 00:39:54.700
 right

00:39:54.700 --> 00:39:55.519
 it hasn't

00:39:55.519 --> 00:39:56.059
 really helped

00:39:56.059 --> 00:39:56.400
 us

00:39:56.400 --> 00:39:57.340
 it's not

00:39:57.340 --> 00:39:57.780
 the lack

00:39:57.780 --> 00:39:58.340
 of knowledge

00:39:58.340 --> 00:39:59.019
 it's actually

00:39:59.019 --> 00:39:59.820
 the thing

00:39:59.820 --> 00:40:00.139
 the most

00:40:00.139 --> 00:40:00.500
 powerful

00:40:00.500 --> 00:40:01.019
 thing that's

00:40:01.019 --> 00:40:01.260
 going to

00:40:01.260 --> 00:40:01.680
 help us

00:40:01.680 --> 00:40:02.059
 overcome

00:40:02.059 --> 00:40:02.579
 sin

00:40:02.579 --> 00:40:03.700
 is actually

00:40:03.700 --> 00:40:04.820
 understanding

00:40:04.820 --> 00:40:06.059
 how it

00:40:06.059 --> 00:40:06.539
 grieves

00:40:06.539 --> 00:40:06.960
 us

00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:07.639
 okay

00:40:07.639 --> 00:40:08.619
 so I'm

00:40:08.619 --> 00:40:08.940
 just going

00:40:08.940 --> 00:40:09.340
 to kind

00:40:09.340 --> 00:40:10.500
 of wrap

00:40:10.500 --> 00:40:11.519
 up soon

00:40:11.519 --> 00:40:11.780
 here

00:40:11.780 --> 00:40:12.519
 the last

00:40:12.519 --> 00:40:13.119
 thing is

00:40:13.119 --> 00:40:14.300
 in 1

00:40:14.300 --> 00:40:16.000
 Thessalonians

00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:16.680
 5.19

00:40:16.680 --> 00:40:17.119
 it says

00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:17.559
 do not

00:40:17.559 --> 00:40:18.000
 quench

00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:18.599
 the spirit

00:40:18.599 --> 00:40:19.619
 what is

00:40:19.619 --> 00:40:20.139
 quench

00:40:20.139 --> 00:40:21.219
 the spirit

00:40:21.219 --> 00:40:21.559
 mean

00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:21.980
 okay

00:40:21.980 --> 00:40:23.980
 last week

00:40:23.980 --> 00:40:24.460
 I think

00:40:24.460 --> 00:40:25.039
 BJ

00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:25.940
 shared

00:40:25.940 --> 00:40:26.779
 in here

00:40:26.779 --> 00:40:27.639
 to talk

00:40:27.639 --> 00:40:28.099
 about

00:40:28.099 --> 00:40:29.500
 prophecy

00:40:29.500 --> 00:40:30.639
 one of the

00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:30.940
 things

00:40:30.940 --> 00:40:31.819
 we talked

00:40:31.819 --> 00:40:32.059
 about

00:40:32.059 --> 00:40:32.339
 is the

00:40:32.339 --> 00:40:32.839
 Holy Spirit

00:40:32.839 --> 00:40:33.539
 speaks into

00:40:33.539 --> 00:40:34.159
 our lives

00:40:34.159 --> 00:40:35.359
 if you look

00:40:35.359 --> 00:40:35.819
 at that third

00:40:35.819 --> 00:40:36.219
 song

00:40:36.219 --> 00:40:36.799
 in the

00:40:36.799 --> 00:40:37.119
 waiting

00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:37.699
 the spirit

00:40:37.699 --> 00:40:38.359
 is speaking

00:40:38.359 --> 00:40:39.039
 to us

00:40:39.039 --> 00:40:39.440
 in our

00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:39.859
 waiting

00:40:39.859 --> 00:40:40.500
 okay

00:40:40.500 --> 00:40:40.920
 the spirit

00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:41.500
 speaks into

00:40:41.500 --> 00:40:41.739
 us

00:40:41.739 --> 00:40:42.079
 through

00:40:42.079 --> 00:40:42.759
 personal

00:40:42.759 --> 00:40:43.480
 revelations

00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:44.179
 it could

00:40:44.179 --> 00:40:44.379
 be

00:40:44.379 --> 00:40:44.719
 through

00:40:44.719 --> 00:40:45.139
 scripture

00:40:45.139 --> 00:40:45.739
 it could

00:40:45.739 --> 00:40:45.879
 be

00:40:45.879 --> 00:40:46.099
 through

00:40:46.099 --> 00:40:46.579
 prayer

00:40:46.579 --> 00:40:47.139
 it could

00:40:47.139 --> 00:40:47.299
 be

00:40:47.299 --> 00:40:47.779
 in times

00:40:47.779 --> 00:40:48.299
 of worship

00:40:48.299 --> 00:40:48.980
 okay

00:40:48.980 --> 00:40:49.599
 at that

00:40:49.599 --> 00:40:49.860
 time

00:40:49.860 --> 00:40:50.219
 when the

00:40:50.219 --> 00:40:50.420
 spirit

00:40:50.420 --> 00:40:50.839
 speaks

00:40:50.839 --> 00:40:51.299
 to you

00:40:51.299 --> 00:40:52.779
 and

00:40:52.779 --> 00:40:53.799
 asks you

00:40:53.799 --> 00:40:55.420
 to join

00:40:55.420 --> 00:40:55.699
 him

00:40:55.699 --> 00:40:55.960
 in

00:40:55.960 --> 00:40:56.380
 something

00:40:56.380 --> 00:40:56.799
 you have

00:40:56.799 --> 00:40:57.279
 a choice

00:40:57.279 --> 00:40:58.339
 you have

00:40:58.339 --> 00:40:58.719
 a choice

00:41:46.039 --> 00:41:46.420
 some time

00:41:46.420 --> 00:41:46.739
 with me

00:41:46.739 --> 00:41:48.079
 you're going

00:41:48.079 --> 00:41:48.400

00:41:48.400 --> 00:41:49.119
 hearing those

00:41:49.119 --> 00:41:49.440
 it's not

00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:49.940
 because God

00:41:49.940 --> 00:41:50.579
 stopped sending

00:41:50.579 --> 00:41:50.840
 them

00:41:50.840 --> 00:41:51.539
 you will

00:41:51.539 --> 00:41:52.159
 not notice

00:41:52.159 --> 00:41:52.559
 those

 anymore

00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:54.079
 okay

00:41:54.079 --> 00:41:54.739
 so God

00:41:54.739 --> 00:41:55.420
 continued to

00:41:55.420 --> 00:41:55.799
 call out

00:41:55.799 --> 00:41:56.179
 to us

00:41:56.179 --> 00:41:56.639
 but we

00:41:56.639 --> 00:41:57.159
 continue

00:41:57.159 --> 00:41:57.900
 when we

00:41:57.900 --> 00:41:58.539
 ignore him

00:41:58.539 --> 00:41:58.920
 and we

00:41:58.920 --> 00:41:59.239
 say

00:41:59.239 --> 00:42:00.259
 you know

00:42:00.259 --> 00:42:01.460
 I'm too

00:42:01.460 --> 00:42:01.779

00:42:01.779 --> 00:42:03.659
 it's going

00:42:03.659 --> 00:42:04.099
 to be hard

00:42:04.099 --> 00:42:04.400
 for us

00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:04.819
 to keep

00:42:04.819 --> 00:42:05.420
 hearing

00:42:05.420 --> 00:42:05.779
 that

00:42:05.779 --> 00:42:06.360
 okay

00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:07.699
 in Luke

00:42:07.699 --> 00:42:08.759
 418

00:42:08.759 --> 00:42:09.699
 we talked

00:42:09.699 --> 00:42:09.840
 about

00:42:09.840 --> 00:42:10.199
 the spirit

00:42:10.199 --> 00:42:10.460
 of the

00:42:10.460 --> 00:42:10.619
 Lord

00:42:10.619 --> 00:42:10.980
 is upon

00:42:10.980 --> 00:42:11.299
 me

00:42:11.299 --> 00:42:11.900
 because

00:42:11.900 --> 00:42:12.259
 we have

00:42:12.259 --> 00:42:12.420
 been

00:42:12.420 --> 00:42:13.440
 because he

00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:13.960
 has anointed

00:42:13.960 --> 00:42:14.199
 me

00:42:14.199 --> 00:42:14.759
 to proclaim

00:42:14.759 --> 00:42:15.139
 the good

00:42:15.139 --> 00:42:15.339
 news

00:42:15.339 --> 00:42:15.799
 to the poor

00:42:15.799 --> 00:42:16.699
 and sent

00:42:16.699 --> 00:42:17.000
 me to

00:42:17.000 --> 00:42:17.319
 proclaim

00:42:17.319 --> 00:42:17.659
 liberty

00:42:17.659 --> 00:42:17.980
 to the

00:42:17.980 --> 00:42:18.399
 captives

00:42:18.399 --> 00:42:19.319
 and recover

00:42:19.319 --> 00:42:19.659
 sights

00:42:19.659 --> 00:42:20.179
 to the blind

00:42:20.179 --> 00:42:20.859
 now

00:42:20.859 --> 00:42:22.919
 that is God

00:42:22.919 --> 00:42:23.719
 calling us

00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:24.619
 God is calling

00:42:24.619 --> 00:42:25.679
 us to join

00:42:25.679 --> 00:42:26.739
 him in his

00:42:26.739 --> 00:42:27.159
 work

00:42:27.159 --> 00:42:28.179
 he doesn't need

00:42:28.179 --> 00:42:28.819
 us by the way

00:42:28.819 --> 00:42:29.559
 I mean just

00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:30.299
 in case you're

00:42:30.299 --> 00:42:30.419
 thinking

00:42:30.419 --> 00:42:31.519
 God really

00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:32.119
 needs me to

00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:32.480
 go and save

00:42:32.480 --> 00:42:32.779
 the world

00:42:32.779 --> 00:42:34.519
 he doesn't

00:42:34.519 --> 00:42:34.879
 okay

00:42:34.879 --> 00:42:35.899
 he can do it

00:42:35.899 --> 00:42:36.439
 without you

00:42:36.439 --> 00:42:37.579
 he's sending

00:42:37.579 --> 00:42:38.099
 an invitation

00:42:38.099 --> 00:42:38.500
 to say

00:45:01.939 --> 00:45:03.039
 when God

 a spirit

00:45:41.059 --> 00:45:41.420
 at the

00:45:41.420 --> 00:45:42.079
 highest cost

00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:42.400
 that is

00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:42.920
 possible

00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:44.220
 Lord

00:45:44.220 --> 00:45:44.639
 that you

00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:44.820

00:45:47.639 --> 00:45:48.260
 that cross

00:45:48.260 --> 00:45:49.380
 so that

00:45:49.380 --> 00:45:50.200
 we may

00:45:50.200 --> 00:45:50.800
 receive the

00:45:50.800 --> 00:45:51.139
 spirit

00:45:51.139 --> 00:45:51.579
 and that

00:45:51.579 --> 00:45:52.039
 spirit

00:45:52.039 --> 00:45:52.460
 is here

00:45:52.460 --> 00:45:52.900
 to guide

00:45:52.900 --> 00:45:53.260
 us through

00:45:53.260 --> 00:45:53.760
 the journey

00:45:53.760 --> 00:45:54.420
 of life

00:45:54.420 --> 00:45:54.840
 in this

00:45:54.840 --> 00:45:55.099
 world

00:45:55.099 --> 00:45:56.300
 and Lord

00:45:56.300 --> 00:45:56.880
 that there's

00:45:56.880 --> 00:45:57.480
 so many

00:45:57.480 --> 00:45:58.380
 things that

00:45:58.380 --> 00:45:59.300
 you have

00:45:59.300 --> 00:45:59.960
 installed for

00:45:59.960 --> 00:46:00.440
 us but

00:46:00.440 --> 00:46:01.059
 yet we fill

00:46:01.059 --> 00:46:01.539
 our day

00:46:01.539 --> 00:46:02.260
 with so

00:46:02.260 --> 00:46:02.900
 many things

00:46:02.900 --> 00:46:03.460
 that are

00:46:03.460 --> 00:46:04.260
 not good

00:46:04.260 --> 00:46:04.800
 for us

00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:05.579
 Lord

00:46:05.579 --> 00:46:06.079
 help us

00:46:06.079 --> 00:46:06.579
 discern

00:46:06.579 --> 00:46:07.280
 what is

00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:08.559
 intended

00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:09.380
 for you

00:46:09.380 --> 00:46:10.219
 what you

00:46:10.219 --> 00:46:10.679
 intend

00:46:10.679 --> 00:46:11.219
 for our

00:46:11.219 --> 00:46:11.519
 day

00:46:11.519 --> 00:46:12.619
 and let us

00:46:12.619 --> 00:46:13.179
 put aside

00:46:13.179 --> 00:46:13.739
 those things

00:46:13.739 --> 00:46:14.219
 that we may

00:46:14.219 --> 00:46:14.739
 be striving

00:46:14.739 --> 00:46:15.420
 for that we

00:46:15.420 --> 00:46:16.340
 may think

00:46:16.340 --> 00:46:16.860
 will make us

00:46:16.860 --> 00:46:17.460
 happy but

00:46:17.460 --> 00:46:18.299
 ultimately

00:46:18.299 --> 00:46:18.860
 they will

00:46:18.860 --> 00:46:19.219
 come out

00:46:19.219 --> 00:46:19.559
 empty

00:46:19.559 --> 00:46:20.900
 we just ask

00:46:20.900 --> 00:46:21.320
 you that

00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:22.500
 we can step

00:46:22.500 --> 00:46:23.199
 out in faith

00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:24.199
 when you come

00:46:24.199 --> 00:46:24.779
 calling when

00:46:24.779 --> 00:46:25.360
 you're messaging

00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:26.679
 us that we

00:46:26.679 --> 00:46:28.099
 can take our

00:46:28.099 --> 00:46:28.980
 faith and just

00:46:28.980 --> 00:46:29.679
 walk in one

00:46:29.679 --> 00:46:30.279
 step out to

00:46:30.279 --> 00:46:30.699
 say you know

00:46:30.699 --> 00:46:31.719
 what I'm

00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:32.279
 going to spend

00:46:32.279 --> 00:46:32.900
 a little bit

00:46:32.900 --> 00:46:33.500
 time with you

00:46:33.500 --> 00:46:34.860
 and serving

00:46:34.860 --> 00:46:36.559
 the needs

00:46:36.559 --> 00:46:37.219
 around us

00:46:37.219 --> 00:46:38.340
 Lord we just

00:46:38.340 --> 00:46:38.820
 want to lift

00:46:38.820 --> 00:46:39.340
 us up to

00:46:39.340 --> 00:46:40.019
 you in the

00:46:40.019 --> 00:46:40.460
 name of our

00:46:40.460 --> 00:46:40.940
 Lord Jesus

00:46:40.940 --> 00:46:42.000
 Amen
