00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.080
 I want you to turn in your Bibles this morning to John chapter 16.

00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:14.439
!

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:42.140
 I'm going to be up here and appeal to you to have the Scriptures resonate when we're

00:00:42.140 --> 00:00:42.740
 singing.

00:00:43.620 --> 00:00:44.399
 Everybody look up.

00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:48.340
 I ought to be able to make a biblical argument for that.

00:00:48.379 --> 00:00:49.079
 Would you agree to that?

00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:56.420
 I should be able to point to a passage of Scripture and say, well, here's why I was thinking that

00:00:56.420 --> 00:00:56.740
 way.

00:00:56.740 --> 00:01:02.219
 Sidebar, just so you're following me here, and it'll come together.

00:01:03.940 --> 00:01:06.400
 You can be here and not be full of the Holy Spirit.

00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:07.400
 Would you agree with that?

00:01:09.700 --> 00:01:15.140
 And should the believer be filled with the Holy Spirit?

00:01:15.240 --> 00:01:16.640
 What's the answer from the Bible?

00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:18.640
 Absolutely!

00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:22.560
 We're commanded to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:30.480
 And how many of you have on occasion been uncertain that you were filled with the Holy Spirit?

00:01:31.520 --> 00:01:32.799
 Besides me, I'm just wondering.

00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:41.040
 You know, one of the things that we know from the Scripture is that now you can sing and not

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:42.159
 be filled with the Holy Spirit.

00:01:42.219 --> 00:01:43.099
 How many of you would agree with that?

00:01:43.099 --> 00:01:50.019
 But the Holy Spirit does prompt the believer to sing.

00:01:50.419 --> 00:01:53.319
 That's what it tells us in Ephesians chapter 5.

00:01:53.319 --> 00:02:11.159
 And I want you to understand that another indication of the working of the Holy Spirit is that when we are thinking and when we're, let's try singing, the Holy Spirit, when He's at work in us, He's bringing up passages of Scripture.

00:02:11.519 --> 00:02:15.699
 Because listen, nothing magnifies Jesus more than this Bible.

00:02:15.699 --> 00:02:23.659
 And so, the Spirit of God says, hey, Tim, hey, what about that passage?

00:02:23.859 --> 00:02:24.159
 Click.

00:02:25.119 --> 00:02:28.659
 And Christ is amplified or glorified in that.

00:02:28.899 --> 00:02:29.060
 Okay.

00:02:29.979 --> 00:02:30.959
 Bible passage.

00:02:31.859 --> 00:02:32.339
 Ephesians.

00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:34.759
 John chapter 6.

00:02:34.839 --> 00:02:38.299
 My Bible went to Acts by my hand, by the way.

00:02:38.399 --> 00:02:39.000
 Okay, here we go.

00:02:39.899 --> 00:02:42.659
 John chapter 16, verse 13 and 14.

00:02:42.659 --> 00:02:59.240
 When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth, for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears, He will speak, and He will declare to you the things that are to come.

00:03:00.460 --> 00:03:04.159
 So the Holy Spirit speaks, and how do we know that He speaks?

00:03:04.219 --> 00:03:07.900
 We don't have these little whispering words in our ears, but we have the Word of God.

00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:09.740
 This is God's Word.

00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:11.859
 Verse 14.

00:03:11.860 --> 00:03:19.700
 He will glorify me, for He will take that which is mine, Bible, and declare it to you.

00:03:19.699 --> 00:03:46.919
 So, there's nothing wrong with when you come to corporate worship saying, Holy Spirit, would you help me this morning that as we are singing, you would enable me to sing joyfully, enthusiastically, with an affection for the Lord Jesus Christ and an ambition for heaven.

00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:54.539
 And would you bring to mind, and would you bring to mind, passages of Scripture that relate to what we're singing?

00:03:54.759 --> 00:03:55.639
 Okay, enough of that.

00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:57.339
 John 6.

00:03:57.839 --> 00:03:58.639
 We'll get there.

00:03:59.879 --> 00:04:00.759
 John 6.

00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:13.560
 As I preach, you have a very active responsibility.

00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:14.419
 What is that, too?

00:04:15.699 --> 00:04:16.579
 You are to pray.

00:04:18.779 --> 00:04:20.339
 And I trust you will do that.

00:04:20.339 --> 00:04:25.479
 That the Word of God might have free course and make a difference in your life.

00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:35.679
 And that God would use this very earthen vessel to remind you of the glory and the supremacy of Christ, and that you would have a desire to see Him face to face.

00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:45.300
 And that the day you live in the day to come would be a tangible evidence of your walk with Christ.

00:04:46.500 --> 00:04:47.280
 Let's pray.

00:04:49.780 --> 00:04:58.980
 Our hearts this morning are reminded of the passage in Zechariah where the prophet penned these words,

00:04:58.980 --> 00:05:28.960
 says,

00:05:28.980 --> 00:05:36.540
 to be the physical manifestation of His character and nature and affection for lost mankind.

00:05:39.340 --> 00:05:52.340
 And that those who are here that do not know Christ would be drawn by His grace to cry out for salvation and for deliverance from their sin.

00:05:53.379 --> 00:05:55.460
 And we ask this in Jesus' name.

00:05:56.180 --> 00:05:56.500
 Amen.

00:05:56.500 --> 00:05:56.620
 Amen.

00:05:58.980 --> 00:06:05.600
 I have to tell you that I remember at a point in my life being very, very hesitant to launch into the book of John.

00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:14.400
 Early in my ministry, I was intimidated at the prospect of John in particular

00:06:14.400 --> 00:06:22.700
 because it is a gospel different from the others in that it doesn't have so much of the narrative.

00:06:22.699 --> 00:06:27.620
 You can't kind of follow the history of Jesus as you're working your way primarily through the gospel of John.

00:06:27.620 --> 00:06:33.539
 There are only a certain number of incidents that kind of follow a narrative.

00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:45.879
 Much of the gospel of John gives to us a picture of the person of Christ and draws us to recognize that He is the Savior of mankind and the one with whom we have to do.

00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:53.079
 As I have been working my way in private study and prayer through the book of John,

00:06:53.259 --> 00:06:55.899
 I have grown to look back in retrospect and say,

00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:57.500
 why didn't I do this earlier?

00:06:57.500 --> 00:07:08.240
 Because John is such a rich picture of who Jesus is that it is helping me in my process of growing to love Him more.

00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:10.720
 And I trust that is what is happening to you.

00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:22.440
 We saw last week in particular the heart of our Savior in not only meeting the needs of a hungry and very, very shallow crowd,

00:07:22.520 --> 00:07:24.300
 and we know that He fed how many?

00:07:24.400 --> 00:07:26.300
 About 20,000 is the estimate.

00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:28.280
 He fed 20,000 people.

00:07:29.500 --> 00:07:31.280
 And on the heels of that,

00:07:32.400 --> 00:07:35.820
 you remember if you look back just a little bit in John,

00:07:35.819 --> 00:07:41.879
 you'll pick up there that what He did after the feeding of the 5,000,

00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:46.079
 the people were ready to come and take Him by force and make Him their king.

00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:55.219
 And we know that in His sympathy and sensitivity for the weakness of the disciples in particular,

00:07:55.579 --> 00:08:00.379
 in facing that fickle and selfish crowd and their own spiritual frailty,

00:08:00.379 --> 00:08:04.560
 He pushed them off into the boat and sent them into a storm.

00:08:05.819 --> 00:08:07.719
 And then He delivered them from the storm.

00:08:09.180 --> 00:08:13.980
 What we are looking at this morning as we pick up in John 6, verse 22,

00:08:14.300 --> 00:08:15.959
 is the next day.

00:08:17.379 --> 00:08:20.800
 And I want you to recognize as you look at this extended passage

00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:25.560
 that it is a lesson for us of the heart of our Lord Jesus

00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:29.159
 for people that can be profoundly frustrating.

00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:35.399
 And I preach to you, primarily, who are part of our fellowship,

00:08:35.820 --> 00:08:37.300
 and know the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:08:37.400 --> 00:08:40.760
 because you are here by assignment and appointment

00:08:40.760 --> 00:08:42.740
 to minister to other people.

00:08:42.820 --> 00:08:43.879
 Do you recognize that?

00:08:44.160 --> 00:08:45.520
 I mean, it'd be better to be in heaven.

00:08:45.580 --> 00:08:46.300
 Would you agree with that?

00:08:47.540 --> 00:08:49.100
 Truthfully, it'd be better to be in heaven.

00:08:49.140 --> 00:08:50.200
 Nothing wrong with that place.

00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:54.460
 The reason I draw breath and the reason you draw breath

00:08:54.460 --> 00:08:59.139
 is He left me here to be His ambassador, His representative,

00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:03.580
 and doing that means that He wants me to be in direct contact

00:09:03.580 --> 00:09:08.860
 with broken, wounded individuals whose hearts are an absolute mess.

00:09:08.860 --> 00:09:14.080
 And I need to be reminded of how Jesus dealt with those people

00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:17.139
 because every now and then, in my flesh,

00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:21.379
 I would like them just to get entirely sanctified

00:09:21.379 --> 00:09:23.560
 the moment I give them a Bible verse or two

00:09:23.560 --> 00:09:25.060
 and leave it go at that.

00:09:26.560 --> 00:09:31.360
 I want you to look at what we find here in this passage,

00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:33.779
 beginning there in verse 22 as we work our way through

00:09:33.779 --> 00:09:37.100
 and kind of see the heart of Christ towards unbelievers in particular.

00:09:37.100 --> 00:09:38.519
 Let me begin reading.

00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.100
 John 6, verse 22, it says,

00:09:41.220 --> 00:09:43.980
 On the next day the crowd that remained on the other side of the sea

00:09:43.980 --> 00:09:47.100
 saw that there had been only one boat there

00:09:47.100 --> 00:09:50.420
 and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples,

00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.139
 but His disciples had gone away.

00:09:53.060 --> 00:09:55.320
 Other boats came from Tiberias,

00:09:55.779 --> 00:09:58.620
 came near the place where they had eaten the bread

00:09:58.620 --> 00:10:00.220
 after the Lord had given thanks.

00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:03.360
 So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples,

00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:05.600
 they themselves got into the boats

00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:08.820
 and went to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:14.700
 I want us to look this morning at a picture of the Lord Jesus

00:10:14.700 --> 00:10:18.700
 ministering to some very short-sighted individuals.

00:10:19.860 --> 00:10:22.240
 Our lesson starts there in verse 22,

00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:25.360
 and we recognize that as we kind of pick up the narrative,

00:10:25.500 --> 00:10:29.580
 we find that Jesus, after having ministered to these 20,000 or so people,

00:10:29.580 --> 00:10:32.900
 you'll remember that they had followed Him into the wilderness

00:10:32.900 --> 00:10:36.139
 because they'd been impressed with His miracles.

00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.540
 I mean, He'd done some things that were stunning,

00:10:39.780 --> 00:10:42.340
 and they were intrigued, they were interested.

00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:47.280
 I'm certain there were ones in the crowd that wanted healing and things done for them.

00:10:47.660 --> 00:10:50.460
 And Jesus, after He had taken them out there in the wilderness,

00:10:50.580 --> 00:10:51.460
 at least they'd followed Him,

00:10:51.460 --> 00:10:54.340
 He saw their need, their very physical need,

00:10:54.540 --> 00:10:56.300
 and He was willing to feed them.

00:10:58.500 --> 00:11:02.000
 When they decided that they would force Him to be king,

00:11:03.580 --> 00:11:06.940
 Jesus sent His disciples out of harm's way into a storm,

00:11:07.680 --> 00:11:09.180
 and then He went off to pray.

00:11:09.179 --> 00:11:12.620
 So what we find in verse 24,

00:11:12.779 --> 00:11:14.620
 and I want you to kind of put your finger on 24,

00:11:15.179 --> 00:11:20.500
 it tells us that after the crowd found that Jesus wasn't where they had anticipated Him,

00:11:20.739 --> 00:11:22.179
 they went looking for Him,

00:11:22.239 --> 00:11:23.659
 and they went to the reasonable place,

00:11:23.899 --> 00:11:24.859
 at least in their thinking,

00:11:24.959 --> 00:11:26.099
 back to the city of Capernaum,

00:11:26.339 --> 00:11:31.079
 and they were going there with the expectation of finding Jesus.

00:11:31.199 --> 00:11:32.099
 That's their goal.

00:11:34.199 --> 00:11:35.639
 When they found Jesus,

00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:39.059
 I want you to mark His conversation with them,

00:11:39.199 --> 00:11:43.860
 because instead of complimenting them on their pursuit of Jesus,

00:11:44.179 --> 00:11:48.620
 He exposed the shallowness of their ambition and their interest.

00:11:49.740 --> 00:11:53.620
 It serves us well to remember that Jesus loved these people,

00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:55.620
 and that He would weep for them later on,

00:11:55.819 --> 00:11:59.419
 as we read that on the day of His crucifixion,

00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:01.159
 as He looked upon the crowd,

00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:02.740
 His heart was deeply touched by them.

00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:05.299
 Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.

00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:08.580
 Earlier than that, when He'd come into Jerusalem for the last time,

00:12:08.819 --> 00:12:11.139
 it says that when He looked upon the city, He wept.

00:12:12.319 --> 00:12:17.080
 Jesus had a heart for these unsaved, lost, blinded individuals,

00:12:17.439 --> 00:12:19.399
 and we see that even here.

00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:22.120
 Listen to what He says.

00:12:24.199 --> 00:12:24.919
 He says,

00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:41.339
 I want you to stop and think just for a moment that Jesus,

00:12:41.539 --> 00:12:43.339
 as He was speaking of this,

00:12:43.379 --> 00:12:46.659
 He started out by reminding them of what had taken place,

00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:49.579
 and there wasn't a heart on the part of Christ that says,

00:12:49.659 --> 00:12:51.099
 I should have never fed you.

00:12:51.100 --> 00:12:53.620
 He was willing to do that for them.

00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:59.399
 And so I want to recognize that genuine love willingly does meet physical needs,

00:12:59.779 --> 00:13:01.980
 but it doesn't stop there.

00:13:03.180 --> 00:13:05.960
 And what Jesus said was very convicting,

00:13:06.139 --> 00:13:10.480
 because what it did was expose the most ancient trap

00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:13.860
 that Satan has used in all of our lives,

00:13:13.920 --> 00:13:15.800
 including Adam and Eve,

00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:19.740
 to draw us away from our Creator and our Savior.

00:13:21.139 --> 00:13:22.159
 And what do I mean by that?

00:13:23.219 --> 00:13:26.959
 Satan relies upon the things that we're interested in

00:13:26.959 --> 00:13:29.799
 that are of superficial and temporal worth

00:13:30.500 --> 00:13:34.519
 to draw our affections and our attentions away from Christ.

00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:38.059
 He seduces people today

00:13:38.059 --> 00:13:42.340
 to choose jobs that enslave them

00:13:42.340 --> 00:13:47.639
 for no other reason than accumulating material goods

00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:49.139
 that will not satisfy

00:13:49.139 --> 00:13:51.860
 and ultimately will end up in a dumpster.

00:13:53.199 --> 00:13:56.799
 You know, one of the things that I hear families say,

00:13:57.299 --> 00:13:59.879
 I've got to be careful here when I say this,

00:13:59.980 --> 00:14:01.360
 but I've got to tell you the truth.

00:14:01.439 --> 00:14:02.720
 I've heard more than one family say,

00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:04.080
 when my mom and dad die,

00:14:04.300 --> 00:14:05.940
 I'm going to rent a roll-off

00:14:05.940 --> 00:14:07.720
 and we're going to clean the house out.

00:14:09.379 --> 00:14:10.560
 Has anybody ever said,

00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:11.180
 don't raise your hand,

00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:13.360
 but just kind of nod very, very carefully

00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:16.420
 so nobody else knows that you and me understand each other.

00:14:18.160 --> 00:14:19.600
 When mom and dad die,

00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:21.700
 we're going to rent a roll-off.

00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:23.259
 You know what that's an indication of?

00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:25.399
 What they put their energy into

00:14:25.399 --> 00:14:27.379
 really didn't last.

00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:28.720
 Agreed?

00:14:31.100 --> 00:14:32.200
 We can all do that.

00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.519
 And Jesus, as he looked at this crowd

00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:37.680
 that had come to them,

00:14:37.740 --> 00:14:39.440
 he says, hey, you're here

00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:42.180
 just because I fed you bread.

00:14:43.740 --> 00:14:46.080
 He misleads people also into thinking

00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:49.879
 that the time they invest in consumptive pleasures,

00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:52.879
 activities, and entertainments,

00:14:53.740 --> 00:14:55.200
 sometimes in the name of their children.

00:14:55.300 --> 00:14:56.680
 Did you realize that doing something

00:14:56.680 --> 00:14:57.600
 in the name of your children

00:14:57.600 --> 00:14:59.540
 is Trump in our contemporary culture?

00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:00.440
 How many of you realize that?

00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:02.200
 It's amazing.

00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:04.060
 You can do all kinds of things for your children,

00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:05.420
 and everybody just kind of nods.

00:15:05.500 --> 00:15:06.620
 Yeah, I mean, I understand.

00:15:06.760 --> 00:15:07.340
 I'm with you there.

00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:10.300
 I remember parents

00:15:10.300 --> 00:15:12.340
 several years ago

00:15:12.340 --> 00:15:14.600
 who commented to me

00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:15.520
 that they were really

00:15:15.520 --> 00:15:17.900
 in a financial bind.

00:15:17.899 --> 00:15:20.579
 And I, you know, curiosity.

00:15:20.579 --> 00:15:21.259
 I'm a pastor.

00:15:21.379 --> 00:15:21.860
 I'm a shepherd.

00:15:21.860 --> 00:15:23.379
 I care about people's hearts.

00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:25.840
 And I said, what's the problem?

00:15:26.959 --> 00:15:29.879
 Well, it's going to cost me $1,800

00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:31.840
 to send my daughter

00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:33.600
 to the travel team for volleyball.

00:15:33.779 --> 00:15:35.679
 I hope nobody plays volleyball here,

00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:36.759
 you know, that level.

00:15:36.899 --> 00:15:38.959
 I mean, I wasn't thinking of you.

00:15:39.079 --> 00:15:40.559
 Not thinking of you.

00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:41.000
 Okay?

00:15:45.359 --> 00:15:46.779
 Being an older man

00:15:46.779 --> 00:15:49.559
 and moderately mature pastor sometimes,

00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:51.619
 I just kept my mouth shut

00:15:51.619 --> 00:15:53.039
 and I just let the person go on.

00:15:56.019 --> 00:15:57.259
 You know, hey, listen,

00:15:57.459 --> 00:15:58.939
 we have come a long way

00:15:58.939 --> 00:16:03.959
 from where Eric Liddell was

00:16:03.959 --> 00:16:06.039
 who was unwilling to run on Sunday.

00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:09.259
 Do you follow that?

00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:12.419
 Oh, we like watching

00:16:12.419 --> 00:16:13.159
 Chariots of Fire.

00:16:13.299 --> 00:16:14.879
 I mean, hey, the music is outstanding.

00:16:15.319 --> 00:16:16.860
 But really, if it comes down to us

00:16:16.860 --> 00:16:18.079
 deciding if we're going to choose

00:16:18.079 --> 00:16:19.139
 between corporate worship

00:16:19.139 --> 00:16:21.120
 and some physical activity

00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:21.860
 for our children,

00:16:22.019 --> 00:16:22.799
 children trumps.

00:16:24.699 --> 00:16:26.439
 We've fallen into the trap

00:16:26.439 --> 00:16:27.559
 of Satan, of thinking

00:16:27.559 --> 00:16:28.679
 that things that are

00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:30.480
 of no eternal value

00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.179
 are significant and supreme

00:16:33.179 --> 00:16:34.839
 in comparison to the glory

00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:36.480
 of Christ

00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:38.980
 and the body that he loves.

00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:43.259
 I remember another parent.

00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:45.040
 I'm on volleyball today,

00:16:45.139 --> 00:16:46.240
 so you can kind of pass

00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:47.139
 if you're not.

00:16:48.460 --> 00:16:50.220
 Another parent that came to me,

00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:51.320
 their home was just

00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:52.399
 an absolute disaster.

00:16:52.620 --> 00:16:54.180
 It was, the wheels had come off.

00:16:54.300 --> 00:16:55.580
 I'm not talking about one,

00:16:55.960 --> 00:16:57.040
 you know, and a little bit

00:16:57.040 --> 00:16:58.460
 of the retread popped or something.

00:16:58.580 --> 00:16:59.840
 All four wheels were off

00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:00.720
 and the marriage

00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:01.940
 was an absolute disaster.

00:17:02.180 --> 00:17:03.280
 And I said, listen,

00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:05.059
 I want to minister to you guys.

00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:06.399
 And so let's set up a time

00:17:06.399 --> 00:17:07.059
 for counseling.

00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:07.539
 I mean, you know,

00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:09.160
 let's work at this marriage.

00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:11.579
 And the guy grabbed his calendar

00:17:11.579 --> 00:17:12.920
 and you know what?

00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:14.680
 He couldn't pull it off

00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:15.559
 because his daughter

00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:17.440
 was in a travel league.

00:17:19.139 --> 00:17:20.559
 Cincinnati this weekend,

00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:22.139
 Cleveland the next,

00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:24.059
 somewhere in West Virginia.

00:17:25.059 --> 00:17:26.139
 And he says, you know,

00:17:26.339 --> 00:17:28.000
 I don't think I can work this out

00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:29.180
 for the next three or four weeks

00:17:29.180 --> 00:17:31.320
 because every single night

00:17:31.320 --> 00:17:32.880
 I got to get my daughter

00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:33.440
 to volleyball

00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:34.680
 or I have to get her

00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:36.240
 to a game some other city.

00:17:36.660 --> 00:17:37.580
 And I thought to myself,

00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:38.900
 well, I guess your marriage

00:17:38.900 --> 00:17:40.320
 isn't very important, right?

00:17:41.940 --> 00:17:42.620
 That's Satan.

00:17:43.740 --> 00:17:44.720
 And here were people

00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:45.920
 coming to Jesus and saying,

00:17:46.019 --> 00:17:46.299
 hey, listen,

00:17:46.560 --> 00:17:47.680
 what we'd really like you

00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:48.519
 to do for us

00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:49.299
 is kind of help us

00:17:49.299 --> 00:17:50.180
 with the things

00:17:50.180 --> 00:17:51.380
 we think are important.

00:17:53.820 --> 00:17:54.900
 He snares people

00:17:54.900 --> 00:17:55.400
 into thinking

00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:56.160
 that the answers

00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:57.240
 to life's problems

00:17:57.240 --> 00:17:58.300
 really can be found

00:17:58.300 --> 00:17:59.700
 in things

00:17:59.700 --> 00:18:03.500
 or causes

00:18:03.500 --> 00:18:05.900
 that are not

00:18:05.900 --> 00:18:07.420
 of eternal worth.

00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:10.519
 I choked this week

00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:10.960
 in anger

00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:14.759
 and I was kind of worked up

00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:15.259
 over the fact

00:18:15.259 --> 00:18:16.500
 that so many people

00:18:16.500 --> 00:18:19.220
 were just absolutely traumatized

00:18:19.220 --> 00:18:20.019
 by the slaughter,

00:18:20.180 --> 00:18:21.480
 and I think a senseless slaughter

00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:23.460
 of Cecil the lion,

00:18:23.600 --> 00:18:24.200
 you know, whatever,

00:18:24.360 --> 00:18:25.400
 hang it on your den.

00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:26.740
 But you know what?

00:18:26.820 --> 00:18:28.620
 Not a peep of concern

00:18:28.620 --> 00:18:31.720
 for what Planned Parenthood

00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:32.700
 has been doing

00:18:32.700 --> 00:18:35.900
 of harvesting unborn babies

00:18:35.900 --> 00:18:37.360
 and selling their parts

00:18:37.360 --> 00:18:38.200
 for profit.

00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:43.920
 So what's our Savior

00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:45.019
 want us to focus on?

00:18:45.780 --> 00:18:47.220
 You look at the passage here

00:18:47.220 --> 00:18:48.920
 and He says,

00:18:49.380 --> 00:18:50.519
 you ate your fill

00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:51.220
 and that's what

00:18:51.220 --> 00:18:52.160
 you're interested in.

00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:54.440
 So listen to what Jesus said

00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:55.080
 as He follows.

00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:55.939
 See there in verse 7

00:18:55.939 --> 00:18:56.240
 He says,

00:18:56.619 --> 00:18:57.460
 Do not labor

00:18:57.460 --> 00:18:58.519
 for the food

00:18:58.519 --> 00:18:59.679
 that perishes.

00:19:00.019 --> 00:19:00.500
 Now stop,

00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:01.059
 just for a moment.

00:19:01.619 --> 00:19:02.579
 You might underline

00:19:02.579 --> 00:19:03.199
 that in your Bible

00:19:03.199 --> 00:19:05.259
 because that is Jesus

00:19:05.259 --> 00:19:06.579
 speaking to you

00:19:06.579 --> 00:19:08.019
 about your agenda,

00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:09.879
 your checkbook,

00:19:10.220 --> 00:19:11.419
 your life.

00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:12.019
 And He says,

00:19:12.220 --> 00:19:13.159
 Do not labor

00:19:13.159 --> 00:19:13.859
 for things

00:19:13.859 --> 00:19:14.960
 that will perish.

00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:20.180
 if God's people

00:19:20.180 --> 00:19:23.079
 put as much time

00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:24.779
 into things

00:19:24.779 --> 00:19:26.120
 that are of eternal worth

00:19:26.120 --> 00:19:27.559
 as they do

00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:29.539
 into all the other activities

00:19:29.539 --> 00:19:31.079
 that they engage in,

00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:34.019
 I tell you what,

00:19:35.019 --> 00:19:36.579
 it'd be a different world

00:19:36.579 --> 00:19:37.319
 that we live in.

00:19:38.860 --> 00:19:39.920
 And here's Jesus.

00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:40.279
 He says,

00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:41.599
 work for the food

00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:42.579
 that endures

00:19:42.579 --> 00:19:43.859
 to eternal life

00:19:43.859 --> 00:19:45.700
 and that's the food

00:19:45.700 --> 00:19:46.660
 that the Son of Man

00:19:46.660 --> 00:19:47.420
 will give you.

00:19:48.899 --> 00:19:50.039
 So ask yourself

00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:50.639
 the question,

00:19:51.639 --> 00:19:53.079
 did these people

00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:54.000
 believe in Jesus?

00:19:54.559 --> 00:19:55.980
 And in one sense,

00:19:56.220 --> 00:19:57.319
 I want you to follow this,

00:19:57.379 --> 00:19:57.779
 they did.

00:19:58.720 --> 00:19:59.519
 They did.

00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:01.920
 They believed

00:20:01.920 --> 00:20:02.639
 that the guy

00:20:02.639 --> 00:20:03.579
 who had fed them

00:20:03.579 --> 00:20:04.099
 yesterday

00:20:04.099 --> 00:20:05.099
 could pull it off

00:20:05.099 --> 00:20:05.940
 again today.

00:20:05.940 --> 00:20:09.120
 and they were insisting

00:20:09.120 --> 00:20:11.180
 what we want you for

00:20:11.180 --> 00:20:12.620
 is for our own

00:20:12.620 --> 00:20:13.580
 personal benefit

00:20:13.580 --> 00:20:15.160
 and we're pretty interested

00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:16.180
 in you taking care

00:20:16.180 --> 00:20:17.019
 of some of the

00:20:17.019 --> 00:20:17.880
 superficial things

00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:18.980
 that we're interested in

00:20:18.980 --> 00:20:19.960
 but don't mess

00:20:19.960 --> 00:20:20.700
 with the others.

00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:23.440
 I've got to tell you

00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:24.039
 that the health

00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:24.580
 and wealth,

00:20:25.220 --> 00:20:26.600
 the prosperity gospel

00:20:26.600 --> 00:20:28.580
 that is pervasive

00:20:28.580 --> 00:20:29.559
 in our culture

00:20:29.559 --> 00:20:32.299
 is a gospel

00:20:32.299 --> 00:20:33.779
 that proposes

00:20:33.779 --> 00:20:34.700
 fundamentally

00:20:34.700 --> 00:20:36.799
 the value of Christ

00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:38.200
 is in relationship

00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:39.299
 to what He can do

00:20:39.299 --> 00:20:40.019
 for you.

00:20:42.580 --> 00:20:43.420
 Jesus says

00:20:43.420 --> 00:20:43.980
 to the people

00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:44.519
 that had come

00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:45.580
 gathering around Him

00:20:45.580 --> 00:20:47.039
 for the sake of a meal

00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:48.420
 or for the sake of whatever

00:20:48.420 --> 00:20:49.559
 was of their own

00:20:49.559 --> 00:20:50.259
 personal interest,

00:20:50.340 --> 00:20:51.039
 they do not labor

00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:52.120
 for the food that perishes

00:20:52.120 --> 00:20:53.220
 but for the food

00:20:53.220 --> 00:20:53.880
 that endures

00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:54.779
 to eternal life

00:20:54.779 --> 00:20:56.160
 which the Son of Man

00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:57.080
 will give to you

00:20:57.080 --> 00:20:58.420
 for on Him

00:20:58.420 --> 00:20:59.259
 God the Father

00:20:59.259 --> 00:21:00.660
 has set His seal.

00:21:02.420 --> 00:21:03.000
 I know,

00:21:03.500 --> 00:21:04.640
 I know,

00:21:04.700 --> 00:21:07.380
 that most of you

00:21:07.380 --> 00:21:08.259
 who are here this morning

00:21:08.259 --> 00:21:08.860
 are believers

00:21:08.860 --> 00:21:09.680
 and you're not here

00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:10.740
 to hear about better food

00:21:10.740 --> 00:21:11.440
 or better government

00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:12.100
 or better health

00:21:12.100 --> 00:21:13.660
 but let me ask you this.

00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:16.799
 Does your

00:21:16.799 --> 00:21:20.539
 belief in Christ

00:21:20.539 --> 00:21:21.440
 lead you

00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:23.019
 in a different path

00:21:23.019 --> 00:21:24.160
 than the world's?

00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:25.059
 Truthfully.

00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:26.980
 Does it?

00:21:26.980 --> 00:21:29.720
 How substantially different

00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:31.620
 are your affections

00:21:31.620 --> 00:21:32.880
 and the use

00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:33.880
 of your energy

00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:35.539
 in comparison

00:21:35.539 --> 00:21:36.620
 to the unbelieving world

00:21:36.620 --> 00:21:37.519
 that we're all exposed

00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:38.360
 to all the time?

00:21:41.360 --> 00:21:42.539
 If you're caught up

00:21:42.539 --> 00:21:43.279
 by the world's

00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:44.279
 magnetic pull

00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:46.000
 and belief

00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:46.819
 that what the world

00:21:46.819 --> 00:21:47.539
 has to offer

00:21:47.539 --> 00:21:48.519
 is so worthy

00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:49.940
 then you have to recognize

00:21:49.940 --> 00:21:51.240
 that what you're doing

00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:52.860
 is you're devaluing

00:21:52.860 --> 00:21:53.579
 the significance

00:21:53.579 --> 00:21:54.519
 of the cross.

00:21:56.019 --> 00:21:56.980
 Well let's go further

00:21:56.980 --> 00:21:57.439
 in the text

00:21:57.439 --> 00:21:58.439
 because we need to understand

00:21:58.439 --> 00:21:59.500
 the point that Jesus

00:21:59.500 --> 00:22:00.240
 is making here

00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:01.139
 and you look there

00:22:01.139 --> 00:22:02.399
 in verse 33 and 34

00:22:02.399 --> 00:22:02.720
 it says

00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:03.559
 for the bread of God

00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:04.779
 is He who comes down

00:22:04.779 --> 00:22:05.220
 from heaven

00:22:05.220 --> 00:22:06.179
 and gives life

00:22:06.179 --> 00:22:06.859
 to the world.

00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:08.759
 Here's Jesus

00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:09.579
 ministering

00:22:09.579 --> 00:22:10.720
 to the unbelieving.

00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:13.740
 I love the way

00:22:13.740 --> 00:22:14.720
 things move here.

00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:16.500
 Instead of having

00:22:16.500 --> 00:22:17.500
 humbling hearts

00:22:17.500 --> 00:22:18.380
 or humbled hearts

00:22:18.380 --> 00:22:19.000
 when the people

00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:20.039
 heard what Jesus

00:22:20.039 --> 00:22:20.759
 had to say

00:22:20.759 --> 00:22:22.059
 they kind of respond

00:22:22.059 --> 00:22:22.900
 back to Him

00:22:22.900 --> 00:22:24.259
 and they say something

00:22:24.259 --> 00:22:25.200
 pretty crass.

00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:26.120
 Listen to this.

00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:27.480
 Look at the passage.

00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:29.380
 He says

00:22:29.380 --> 00:22:30.759
 Sir give us this bread

00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:32.279
 actually going back

00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:32.720
 a little bit

00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:33.519
 verse 30

00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:34.920
 it says

00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:36.220
 Then what sign

00:22:36.220 --> 00:22:36.900
 do you do

00:22:36.900 --> 00:22:38.059
 that we may see

00:22:38.059 --> 00:22:38.799
 and believe in you?

00:22:38.880 --> 00:22:39.819
 What work do you perform?

00:22:39.819 --> 00:22:40.460
 By the way

00:22:40.460 --> 00:22:41.439
 what had He done yesterday?

00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:42.799
 Huh?

00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:44.279
 He'd fed them.

00:22:45.460 --> 00:22:46.519
 Now agreed

00:22:46.519 --> 00:22:47.879
 that it wasn't manna

00:22:47.879 --> 00:22:50.319
 and I don't really know

00:22:50.319 --> 00:22:51.000
 what the relative

00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:51.779
 food value

00:22:51.779 --> 00:22:52.559
 between manna

00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:53.379
 and fish and bread

00:22:53.379 --> 00:22:54.559
 I'm not into that.

00:22:55.539 --> 00:22:56.939
 I really don't know

00:22:56.939 --> 00:22:57.619
 whether manna

00:22:57.619 --> 00:22:58.839
 was a more palatable

00:22:58.839 --> 00:23:00.200
 and a more enjoyable thing

00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:01.319
 than fish and bread

00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:02.200
 but I got to tell you

00:23:02.200 --> 00:23:03.500
 the scripture tells me

00:23:03.500 --> 00:23:04.439
 that people got

00:23:04.439 --> 00:23:05.399
 pretty sick and tired

00:23:05.399 --> 00:23:05.960
 of manna.

00:23:07.399 --> 00:23:08.579
 And here they are

00:23:08.579 --> 00:23:09.799
 having had fish and bread

00:23:09.799 --> 00:23:10.720
 they turn around

00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:10.960
 and say

00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:11.159
 hey

00:23:11.159 --> 00:23:12.379
 what can you do

00:23:12.379 --> 00:23:12.899
 for us?

00:23:15.259 --> 00:23:16.319
 And then they go on

00:23:16.319 --> 00:23:17.039
 and they make

00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:17.659
 their argument

00:23:17.659 --> 00:23:20.039
 verse 30 says

00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:21.700
 what sign

00:23:21.700 --> 00:23:23.059
 what work

00:23:23.059 --> 00:23:23.940
 are you going to do

00:23:23.940 --> 00:23:25.059
 so we can believe?

00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:26.819
 And then they

00:23:26.819 --> 00:23:27.839
 step into it

00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:28.680
 in a really bad way

00:23:28.680 --> 00:23:29.359
 in verse 31

00:23:29.359 --> 00:23:30.279
 our fathers

00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:30.899
 ate manna

00:23:30.899 --> 00:23:31.700
 in the wilderness

00:23:31.700 --> 00:23:32.619
 as it is written

00:23:32.619 --> 00:23:33.659
 but don't you love it

00:23:33.659 --> 00:23:34.460
 when people recite

00:23:34.460 --> 00:23:35.599
 scripture for their own benefit?

00:23:35.599 --> 00:23:39.339
 that little phrase

00:23:39.339 --> 00:23:40.159
 it is written

00:23:40.159 --> 00:23:41.419
 was Jesus'

00:23:42.179 --> 00:23:43.099
 favorite zinger

00:23:43.099 --> 00:23:44.019
 to the Pharisees

00:23:44.019 --> 00:23:44.339
 do you follow?

00:23:44.559 --> 00:23:45.619
 Whenever Jesus said

00:23:45.619 --> 00:23:46.199
 it is written

00:23:46.199 --> 00:23:47.519
 you could hear him

00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:48.139
 bringing down

00:23:48.139 --> 00:23:49.419
 the eight pound sledge

00:23:49.419 --> 00:23:50.459
 on whoever else

00:23:50.459 --> 00:23:51.319
 he was dealing with

00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:52.519
 you know what

00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:53.459
 an eight pound sledge is?

00:23:53.539 --> 00:23:54.079
 I'm talking about

00:23:54.079 --> 00:23:55.279
 a big piece of iron

00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:55.980
 on the end

00:23:55.980 --> 00:23:57.339
 of a long stick

00:23:57.339 --> 00:23:58.619
 and he put the

00:23:58.619 --> 00:23:58.959
 whop

00:23:58.959 --> 00:23:59.339
 he said

00:23:59.339 --> 00:24:00.019
 it is written

00:24:00.019 --> 00:24:00.779
 here they're playing

00:24:00.779 --> 00:24:01.599
 that game with Jesus

00:24:01.599 --> 00:24:02.279
 of all people

00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:03.599
 it is written

00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:04.420
 you know

00:24:04.420 --> 00:24:07.899
 listen to what

00:24:07.899 --> 00:24:08.460
 Jesus says

00:24:08.460 --> 00:24:09.200
 in verse 32

00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:09.859
 truly truly

00:24:09.859 --> 00:24:10.619
 I say to you

00:24:10.619 --> 00:24:12.299
 it was not

00:24:12.299 --> 00:24:12.940
 Moses

00:24:12.940 --> 00:24:15.339
 you see

00:24:15.339 --> 00:24:16.000
 the Jews

00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:16.680
 had the idea

00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:17.420
 that Moses

00:24:17.420 --> 00:24:18.339
 was the

00:24:18.339 --> 00:24:19.440
 one who brought

00:24:19.440 --> 00:24:20.079
 it to them

00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:21.039
 oh

00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:21.879
 Moses

00:24:21.879 --> 00:24:22.319
 by the way

00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:23.980
 how did the people

00:24:23.980 --> 00:24:24.539
 that Moses

00:24:24.539 --> 00:24:25.500
 actually ministered

00:24:25.500 --> 00:24:26.379
 to in flesh and blood

00:24:26.379 --> 00:24:27.539
 really like him?

00:24:28.700 --> 00:24:29.160
 Does anybody know?

00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:30.599
 What was their

00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:31.480
 attitude towards Moses?

00:24:31.480 --> 00:24:32.019
 somebody would get up

00:24:32.019 --> 00:24:32.380
 in the morning

00:24:32.380 --> 00:24:32.740
 and say

00:24:32.740 --> 00:24:33.579
 oh Lord

00:24:33.579 --> 00:24:34.380
 we are so thankful

00:24:34.380 --> 00:24:35.019
 for that servant

00:24:35.019 --> 00:24:35.579
 you brought us

00:24:35.579 --> 00:24:36.079
 that Moses

00:24:36.079 --> 00:24:36.460
 he is

00:24:36.460 --> 00:24:37.400
 by the way

00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:38.099
 he was the most

00:24:38.099 --> 00:24:38.740
 humble man

00:24:38.740 --> 00:24:39.559
 do you understand that?

00:24:39.759 --> 00:24:40.680
 that's what the Bible says

00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:43.299
 and how did the people

00:24:43.299 --> 00:24:44.079
 handle Moses?

00:24:45.360 --> 00:24:46.599
 the incessant

00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:47.180
 grumbling

00:24:47.180 --> 00:24:48.079
 and complaining

00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:49.339
 and whining

00:24:49.339 --> 00:24:50.220
 they were just

00:24:50.220 --> 00:24:51.160
 always livid

00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:51.740
 at Moses

00:24:51.740 --> 00:24:52.680
 because Moses

00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:53.539
 wasn't cooperative

00:24:53.539 --> 00:24:55.480
 do it my way

00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:57.440
 well here's Jesus

00:24:57.440 --> 00:24:58.180
 dealing with these

00:24:58.180 --> 00:24:58.860
 people's attitudes

00:24:58.860 --> 00:25:00.000
 and he makes a point here

00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:00.960
 ultimately

00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:01.799
 Moses wasn't

00:25:01.799 --> 00:25:02.140
 the key

00:25:02.140 --> 00:25:02.980
 to the whole thing

00:25:02.980 --> 00:25:05.940
 look at the passage

00:25:05.940 --> 00:25:06.519
 again

00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:08.720
 there in verse 32

00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:09.519
 Jesus said to them

00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:10.079
 truly truly

00:25:10.079 --> 00:25:10.799
 I say to you

00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:11.680
 it was not

00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:12.120
 Moses

00:25:12.120 --> 00:25:13.700
 who gave you

00:25:13.700 --> 00:25:14.039
 the bread

00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:14.559
 from heaven

00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:16.660
 where'd it come from?

00:25:17.120 --> 00:25:17.640
 God

00:25:17.640 --> 00:25:18.740
 not Moses

00:25:18.740 --> 00:25:20.640
 and so I want you

00:25:20.640 --> 00:25:21.519
 to remind yourself

00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:21.900
 of this

00:25:21.900 --> 00:25:23.400
 no human being

00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:24.620
 can bring

00:25:24.620 --> 00:25:25.539
 eternal

00:25:25.539 --> 00:25:26.319
 blessing

00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:27.180
 to this world

00:25:27.180 --> 00:25:27.900
 no one

00:25:27.900 --> 00:25:29.780
 there is no

00:25:29.780 --> 00:25:30.860
 human being

00:25:30.860 --> 00:25:31.920
 that is the remedy

00:25:31.920 --> 00:25:33.360
 to the brokenness

00:25:33.360 --> 00:25:34.120
 and the messiness

00:25:34.120 --> 00:25:35.060
 of the world

00:25:35.060 --> 00:25:35.740
 we live in

00:25:35.740 --> 00:25:37.120
 I

00:25:37.120 --> 00:25:38.920
 I really am not

00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:39.720
 looking forward

00:25:39.720 --> 00:25:40.480
 to the next

00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:41.000
 political

00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:42.920
 cycle

00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:45.759
 but what I do

00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:46.160
 know

00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:46.800
 is that

00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:47.460
 as we get

00:25:47.460 --> 00:25:48.320
 closer and closer

00:25:48.320 --> 00:25:48.759
 to

00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:49.860
 16

00:25:49.860 --> 00:25:51.320
 there are going

00:25:51.320 --> 00:25:52.000
 to be people

00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:52.980
 even professing

00:25:52.980 --> 00:25:53.380
 believers

00:25:53.380 --> 00:25:53.960
 who become

00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:54.579
 kind of

00:25:54.579 --> 00:25:55.460
 apoplectic

00:25:55.460 --> 00:25:55.980
 in their

00:25:55.980 --> 00:25:56.519
 ambitions

00:25:56.519 --> 00:25:57.200
 that certain

00:25:57.200 --> 00:25:57.559
 people

00:25:57.559 --> 00:25:58.299
 come into

00:25:58.299 --> 00:25:58.680
 government

00:25:58.680 --> 00:25:59.059
 because

00:25:59.059 --> 00:26:00.039
 if they are

00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:00.500
 elected

00:26:00.500 --> 00:26:01.180
 guess what

00:26:01.180 --> 00:26:02.059
 the millennium

00:26:02.059 --> 00:26:02.700
 is coming

00:26:02.700 --> 00:26:04.480
 surprise

00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:05.319
 not true

00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:06.620
 not true

00:26:06.620 --> 00:26:07.279
 don't post

00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:07.880
 anything on your

00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:08.240
 Facebook

00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:08.920
 at least that I

00:26:08.920 --> 00:26:09.440
 will read

00:26:09.440 --> 00:26:10.360
 that says

00:26:10.360 --> 00:26:10.980
 anything like

00:26:10.980 --> 00:26:11.400
 that because

00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:11.779
 that just

00:26:11.779 --> 00:26:12.460
 kind of

00:26:12.460 --> 00:26:13.160
 it kind of

00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:13.759
 wigs me out

00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:14.039
 it's like

00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:14.620
 stop

00:26:14.620 --> 00:26:17.059
 salvation

00:26:17.059 --> 00:26:17.700
 does not

00:26:17.700 --> 00:26:18.160
 come

00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:21.019
 in the form

00:26:21.019 --> 00:26:21.920
 of mere

00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:22.360
 human

00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:23.019
 individuals

00:26:23.019 --> 00:26:24.279
 listen again

00:26:24.279 --> 00:26:24.519
 to what

00:26:24.519 --> 00:26:25.059
 Jesus said

00:26:25.059 --> 00:26:25.379
 there in

00:26:25.379 --> 00:26:26.019
 verse 33

00:26:26.019 --> 00:26:28.759
 for the

00:26:28.759 --> 00:26:29.139
 bread of

00:26:29.139 --> 00:26:29.519
 God

00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:30.539
 is he

00:26:30.539 --> 00:26:31.079
 who comes

00:26:31.079 --> 00:26:31.639
 down from

00:26:31.639 --> 00:26:31.959
 heaven

00:26:31.959 --> 00:26:32.419
 and gives

00:26:32.419 --> 00:26:32.899
 life

00:26:32.899 --> 00:26:33.359
 to the

00:26:33.359 --> 00:26:33.699
 world

00:26:33.699 --> 00:26:34.419
 what was

00:26:34.419 --> 00:26:34.639
 Jesus

00:26:34.639 --> 00:26:35.059
 saying

00:26:35.059 --> 00:26:36.439
 he was

00:26:36.439 --> 00:26:36.679
 saying

00:26:36.679 --> 00:26:36.879
 that

00:26:36.879 --> 00:26:37.539
 salvation

00:26:37.539 --> 00:26:38.259
 and blessing

00:26:38.259 --> 00:26:39.000
 comes from

00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:39.399
 God

00:26:39.399 --> 00:26:39.899
 through

00:26:39.899 --> 00:26:40.419
 Jesus

00:26:40.419 --> 00:26:41.019
 Christ

00:26:41.019 --> 00:26:41.679
 alone

00:26:41.679 --> 00:26:43.719
 I got to

00:26:43.719 --> 00:26:44.019
 tell you

00:26:44.019 --> 00:26:44.799
 as I think

00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:45.299
 about this

00:26:45.299 --> 00:26:45.719
 passage

00:26:45.719 --> 00:26:46.579
 I am

00:26:46.579 --> 00:26:46.979
 struck

00:26:46.979 --> 00:26:47.479
 by how

00:26:47.479 --> 00:26:48.039
 patient

00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:48.879
 and how

00:26:48.879 --> 00:26:49.399
 tender

00:26:49.399 --> 00:26:49.899
 Jesus

00:26:49.899 --> 00:26:50.479
 was

00:26:50.479 --> 00:26:51.459
 in dealing

00:26:51.459 --> 00:26:51.959
 with

00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:52.840
 very

00:26:52.840 --> 00:26:53.259
 very

00:26:53.259 --> 00:26:53.900
 carnal

00:26:53.900 --> 00:26:54.440
 short

00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:55.120
 sighted

00:26:55.120 --> 00:26:55.579
 narrow

00:26:55.579 --> 00:26:56.200
 minded

00:26:56.200 --> 00:26:56.840
 self

00:26:56.840 --> 00:26:57.519
 focused

00:26:57.519 --> 00:26:58.579
 unhappy

00:26:58.579 --> 00:26:58.900
 can I

00:26:58.900 --> 00:26:59.039
 keep

00:26:59.039 --> 00:26:59.259
 going

00:26:59.259 --> 00:27:00.200
 people

00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:04.079
 listen

00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:04.539
 up

00:27:04.539 --> 00:27:08.799
 as I

00:27:08.799 --> 00:27:08.940
 was

00:27:08.940 --> 00:27:09.259
 praying

00:27:09.259 --> 00:27:09.420
 and

00:27:09.420 --> 00:27:09.640
 thinking

00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:10.000
 about

00:27:10.000 --> 00:27:11.079
 what

00:27:11.079 --> 00:27:11.259
 this

00:27:11.259 --> 00:27:11.579
 passage

00:27:11.579 --> 00:27:11.840
 really

00:27:11.840 --> 00:27:12.140
 says

00:27:12.140 --> 00:27:12.299
 to

00:27:12.299 --> 00:27:12.500
 Tim

00:27:12.500 --> 00:27:12.920
 Knoyer

00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:14.340
 I

00:27:14.340 --> 00:27:14.559
 suppose

00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:14.740
 to

00:27:14.740 --> 00:27:14.900
 some

00:27:14.900 --> 00:27:15.019

00:27:15.019 --> 00:27:15.120
 you

00:27:15.120 --> 00:27:15.340
 here

00:27:15.340 --> 00:27:16.559
 I

00:27:16.559 --> 00:27:16.779
 was

00:27:16.779 --> 00:27:17.180
 reminded

00:27:17.180 --> 00:27:17.500
 that

00:27:17.500 --> 00:27:18.220
 this

00:27:18.220 --> 00:27:18.400
 is

00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:18.519
 an

00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:19.039
 example

00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:19.319
 for

00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:19.640
 Tim

 the

00:27:21.220 --> 00:27:21.500
 heart

00:27:21.500 --> 00:27:21.700
 he

00:27:21.700 --> 00:27:22.019
 wants

00:27:22.019 --> 00:27:22.180
 me

00:27:22.180 --> 00:27:22.319

00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:46.380
 and

00:27:46.380 --> 00:27:46.600
 he

00:27:46.600 --> 00:27:46.980
 doesn't

00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:47.240
 want

00:27:47.240 --> 00:27:47.360
 you

00:27:47.360 --> 00:27:47.500
 to

00:27:47.500 --> 00:27:47.779
 get

00:27:47.779 --> 00:27:48.799
 discouraged

00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:49.299
 or

00:27:49.299 --> 00:27:49.920
 overwhelmed

00:27:49.920 --> 00:27:50.299
 or a

00:27:50.299 --> 00:27:50.420
 little

00:27:50.420 --> 00:27:50.980
 embittered

00:27:50.980 --> 00:27:51.120
 just

00:27:51.120 --> 00:27:51.440
 because

00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:51.660
 they're

00:27:51.660 --> 00:27:51.860
 not

00:27:51.860 --> 00:27:52.539
 cooperating

00:27:52.539 --> 00:27:53.019
 and

00:27:53.019 --> 00:27:53.220
 just

00:27:53.220 --> 00:27:53.579
 falling

00:27:53.579 --> 00:27:53.839
 all

00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:54.120
 over

00:27:54.120 --> 00:27:54.400
 you

00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:54.779
 in

00:27:54.779 --> 00:27:55.220
 appreciation

00:27:55.220 --> 00:27:55.680
 for

00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:55.839
 the

00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:56.279
 significance

00:27:56.279 --> 00:27:56.600
 of

00:27:56.600 --> 00:27:56.720
 your

00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:57.140
 ministry

00:27:57.140 --> 00:27:57.559
 stay

00:27:57.559 --> 00:27:57.860
 with

00:27:57.860 --> 00:27:58.140
 it

00:27:58.140 --> 00:27:59.680
 why

00:27:59.680 --> 00:28:00.299
 because

00:28:00.299 --> 00:28:00.700
 Jesus

00:28:00.700 --> 00:28:01.160
 did

00:28:01.160 --> 00:28:04.759
 I

00:28:04.759 --> 00:28:04.920
 gotta

00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:05.279
 tell you

00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:05.600
 something

00:28:05.600 --> 00:28:06.860
 he

00:28:06.860 --> 00:28:07.140
 never

00:28:07.140 --> 00:28:07.460
 turned

00:28:07.460 --> 00:28:07.779
 away

00:28:07.779 --> 00:28:07.960
 in

00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:08.539
 disgust

00:28:08.539 --> 00:28:08.660
 or

00:28:08.660 --> 00:28:09.220
 irritation

00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:10.460
 never

00:28:10.460 --> 00:28:10.880
 stopped

00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:11.220
 reaching

00:28:11.220 --> 00:28:11.539
 out

00:28:11.539 --> 00:28:11.680
 to

00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:11.980
 these

00:28:11.980 --> 00:28:12.920
 shallow

00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:13.480
 narrow

00:28:13.480 --> 00:28:14.000
 minded

00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:14.440
 self

00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:14.839
 focused

00:28:14.839 --> 00:28:15.339
 people

00:28:15.339 --> 00:28:16.019
 now

00:28:16.019 --> 00:28:16.420
 he

00:28:16.420 --> 00:28:16.700
 did

00:28:16.700 --> 00:28:16.960
 tell

00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:17.079
 them

00:28:17.079 --> 00:28:17.240
 the

00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:17.500
 truth

00:28:17.500 --> 00:28:17.960
 but

00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:18.200
 how

00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:18.440
 many

00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:18.659
 of

00:28:18.659 --> 00:28:18.839
 you

00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:19.119
 know

00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:19.299
 the

00:28:19.299 --> 00:28:19.639
 difference

00:28:19.639 --> 00:28:19.980
 between

00:28:19.980 --> 00:28:20.319
 having

00:28:20.319 --> 00:28:20.539
 an

00:28:20.539 --> 00:28:20.960
 edge

00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:21.420
 when

00:28:21.420 --> 00:28:21.599
 you're

00:28:21.599 --> 00:28:21.879
 dealing

00:28:21.879 --> 00:28:22.200
 with

00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:22.559
 people

00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:23.059
 and

00:28:23.059 --> 00:28:23.379
 having

00:28:23.379 --> 00:28:23.519
 an

00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:23.980
 affection

00:28:23.980 --> 00:28:24.460
 even

00:28:24.460 --> 00:28:24.700
 when

00:28:24.700 --> 00:28:24.839
 you

00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:25.019
 tell

00:28:25.019 --> 00:28:25.139
 them

00:28:25.139 --> 00:28:25.279
 the

00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:25.500
 truth

00:28:25.500 --> 00:28:25.799
 how

00:28:25.799 --> 00:28:25.940
 many

00:28:25.940 --> 00:28:26.000
 of

00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:26.059
 you

00:28:26.059 --> 00:28:26.180
 know

00:28:26.180 --> 00:28:26.319
 the

00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:26.799
 difference

00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:28.960
 he

00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:30.039
 loved

00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:30.279
 them

00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:31.799
 and

00:28:31.799 --> 00:28:31.960
 when

00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:32.159
 he

00:28:32.159 --> 00:28:32.879
 dealt

00:28:32.879 --> 00:28:33.220
 with

00:28:33.220 --> 00:28:33.500
 their

00:28:33.500 --> 00:28:34.619
 shallowness

00:28:34.619 --> 00:28:35.119
 it

00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:35.359
 was

00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:35.680
 not

00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:35.960
 with

00:28:35.960 --> 00:28:36.200
 this

00:28:36.200 --> 00:28:36.839
 bitter

00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:38.159
 negative

00:28:38.159 --> 00:28:39.079
 hardened

00:28:39.079 --> 00:28:39.700
 heart

00:28:39.700 --> 00:28:40.200
 like

00:28:40.200 --> 00:28:40.700
 Jonah

00:28:40.700 --> 00:28:40.700


00:28:41.539 --> 00:28:41.740
 you ever

00:28:41.740 --> 00:28:41.980
 stopped

00:28:41.980 --> 00:28:42.139
 and

00:28:42.139 --> 00:28:42.299
 thought

00:28:42.299 --> 00:28:42.480
 about

00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:42.720
 why

00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:43.019
 Jonah

00:28:43.019 --> 00:28:43.819
 actually

00:28:43.819 --> 00:28:44.299
 ended up

00:28:44.299 --> 00:28:44.480
 being

00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:44.879
 instructed

00:28:44.879 --> 00:28:45.139
 by

00:28:45.139 --> 00:28:45.500
 God

00:28:45.500 --> 00:28:45.859
 to

00:28:45.859 --> 00:28:46.059
 write

00:28:46.059 --> 00:28:46.180
 a

00:28:46.180 --> 00:28:46.339
 book

00:28:46.339 --> 00:28:46.559
 about

00:28:46.559 --> 00:28:46.740
 what

00:28:46.740 --> 00:28:46.879
 a

00:28:46.879 --> 00:28:47.099
 jerk

00:28:47.099 --> 00:28:47.200
 he

00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:47.519
 was

00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:48.879
 no

00:28:48.879 --> 00:28:49.200
 I'm

00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:49.420
 think

00:28:49.420 --> 00:28:49.579
 with

00:28:49.579 --> 00:28:50.079
 me

00:28:50.079 --> 00:28:51.920
 I

00:28:51.920 --> 00:28:52.139
 do

00:28:52.139 --> 00:28:52.220
 you

00:28:52.220 --> 00:28:52.539
 understand

00:28:52.539 --> 00:28:52.879
 that

00:28:52.879 --> 00:28:53.839
 there's

00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:54.019
 not

00:28:54.019 --> 00:28:54.420
 one

00:28:54.420 --> 00:28:54.879
 verse

00:28:54.879 --> 00:28:55.920
 that

00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:56.139
 gives

00:28:56.139 --> 00:28:56.319
 us

00:28:56.319 --> 00:28:56.519
 any

00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:57.000
 ambition

00:28:57.000 --> 00:28:57.220
 of

00:28:57.220 --> 00:28:57.480
 thinking

00:28:57.480 --> 00:28:57.819
 Jonah

00:28:57.819 --> 00:28:58.559
 really

00:28:58.559 --> 00:28:58.799
 ever

00:28:58.799 --> 00:28:59.119
 got

00:28:59.119 --> 00:28:59.299
 it

00:28:59.299 --> 00:28:59.579
 now

00:28:59.579 --> 00:29:00.460
 he

00:29:00.460 --> 00:29:00.700
 has

00:29:00.700 --> 00:29:00.799
 it

00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:01.079
 now

00:29:01.079 --> 00:29:01.319
 but

00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:01.720
 do

00:29:01.720 --> 00:29:01.779
 you

00:29:01.779 --> 00:29:01.960
 follow

00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:02.180
 me

00:29:02.180 --> 00:29:03.259
 I

00:29:03.259 --> 00:29:03.440
 think

00:29:03.440 --> 00:29:03.579
 the

00:29:03.579 --> 00:29:03.799
 reason

00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:04.019
 that

00:29:04.019 --> 00:29:04.220
 book

00:29:04.220 --> 00:29:04.379
 was

00:29:04.379 --> 00:29:04.619
 written

00:29:04.619 --> 00:29:04.799
 is

00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:04.899
 to

00:29:04.899 --> 00:29:05.420
 remind

00:29:05.420 --> 00:29:05.700
 us

00:29:05.700 --> 00:29:06.720
 you

00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:06.819
 know

00:29:06.819 --> 00:29:07.000
 what

00:29:07.000 --> 00:29:07.140
 if

00:29:07.140 --> 00:29:07.360
 God

00:29:07.360 --> 00:29:07.559
 can

00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:07.799
 use

00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:08.079
 Jonah

00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:08.579
 there's

00:29:08.579 --> 00:29:08.740
 hope

00:29:08.740 --> 00:29:08.880
 for

00:29:08.880 --> 00:29:09.100
 me

00:29:09.100 --> 00:29:10.299
 you

00:29:10.299 --> 00:29:10.460
 know

00:29:10.460 --> 00:29:11.660
 now

00:29:11.660 --> 00:29:11.900
 it's

00:29:11.900 --> 00:29:12.120
 not

00:29:12.120 --> 00:29:12.279
 an

00:29:12.279 --> 00:29:12.860
 endorsement

00:29:12.860 --> 00:29:13.000
 of

00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:13.220
 being

00:29:13.220 --> 00:29:13.420
 a

00:29:13.420 --> 00:29:13.700
 jerk

00:29:13.700 --> 00:29:13.880
 I

00:29:13.880 --> 00:29:14.000
 do

00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:14.360
 get

00:29:14.360 --> 00:29:14.700
 that

00:29:14.700 --> 00:29:16.579
 I'd

00:29:16.579 --> 00:29:16.740
 like

00:29:16.740 --> 00:29:16.880
 to

00:29:16.880 --> 00:29:17.120
 test

00:29:17.120 --> 00:29:17.400
 God

00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:17.519
 and

00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:17.660
 see

00:29:17.660 --> 00:29:17.819
 how

00:29:17.819 --> 00:29:18.019
 much

00:29:18.019 --> 00:29:18.140
 he

00:29:18.140 --> 00:29:18.259
 can

00:29:18.259 --> 00:29:18.500
 use

00:29:18.500 --> 00:29:18.640
 me

00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:18.839
 being

00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:19.000
 that

00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:19.120
 way

00:29:19.120 --> 00:29:19.259
 no

00:29:19.259 --> 00:29:19.779
 it's

00:29:19.779 --> 00:29:20.519
 God

00:29:20.519 --> 00:29:21.059
 can

00:29:21.059 --> 00:29:21.360
 use

00:29:21.360 --> 00:29:21.480
 us

00:29:21.480 --> 00:29:21.640
 but

00:29:21.640 --> 00:29:21.880
 hey

00:29:21.880 --> 00:29:22.380
 have

00:29:22.380 --> 00:29:22.500
 the

00:29:22.500 --> 00:29:22.640
 heart

00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:22.779
 of

00:29:22.779 --> 00:29:23.140
 Jesus

00:29:23.140 --> 00:29:23.660
 not

00:29:23.660 --> 00:29:23.980
 Jonah

00:29:23.980 --> 00:29:26.200
 so

00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:26.299
 I

00:29:26.299 --> 00:29:26.480
 got to

00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:26.600
 come

00:29:26.600 --> 00:29:26.860
 around

00:29:26.860 --> 00:29:27.039
 on

00:29:27.039 --> 00:29:27.220
 this

00:29:27.220 --> 00:29:27.339
 so

00:29:27.339 --> 00:29:27.400
 you

00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:27.839
 understand

00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:28.019
 the

00:29:28.019 --> 00:29:28.259
 point

00:29:28.259 --> 00:29:28.500
 that

00:29:28.500 --> 00:29:28.740
 we

00:29:28.740 --> 00:29:29.000
 find

00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:38.600
 can

00:29:38.600 --> 00:29:38.700
 I

00:29:38.700 --> 00:29:38.819
 say

00:29:38.819 --> 00:29:38.960
 that

00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:39.200
 again

00:29:39.200 --> 00:29:40.579
 we

00:29:40.579 --> 00:29:40.740
 ought

00:29:40.740 --> 00:29:40.819
 to

00:29:40.819 --> 00:29:40.920
 be

00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:41.120
 more

00:29:41.120 --> 00:29:41.380
 like

00:29:41.380 --> 00:29:41.860
 Jesus

00:29:41.860 --> 00:29:43.660
 in

00:29:43.660 --> 00:29:43.940
 dealing

00:29:43.940 --> 00:29:44.180
 with

00:29:44.180 --> 00:29:44.400
 those

00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:44.519
 who

00:29:44.519 --> 00:29:44.579
 have

00:29:44.579 --> 00:29:44.700
 been

00:29:44.700 --> 00:29:44.980
 snared

00:29:44.980 --> 00:29:45.160
 by

00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:45.579
 sin

00:29:45.579 --> 00:29:47.380
 let

00:29:47.380 --> 00:29:47.519
 our

00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:48.160
 compassion

00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:51.019
 let

00:29:51.019 --> 00:29:51.200
 our

00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:51.779
 humility

00:29:51.779 --> 00:29:53.920
 let

00:29:53.920 --> 00:29:54.319
 the

00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:54.860
 gentleness

00:29:54.860 --> 00:29:55.259
 of our

00:29:55.259 --> 00:29:55.779
 heart

00:29:55.779 --> 00:29:58.640
 reflect

00:29:58.640 --> 00:29:58.960
 the

00:29:58.960 --> 00:29:59.200
 heart

00:29:59.200 --> 00:29:59.400
 he

00:29:59.400 --> 00:29:59.799
 had

00:29:59.799 --> 00:30:01.480
 there's

00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:01.680
 no

00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:02.079
 place

00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:02.299
 for

00:30:02.299 --> 00:30:02.980
 sarcasm

00:30:02.980 --> 00:30:03.559
 everybody

 I

00:30:04.700 --> 00:30:04.839
 want

00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:04.940
 you

00:30:04.940 --> 00:30:05.019
 to

00:30:05.019 --> 00:30:05.160
 say

00:30:05.160 --> 00:30:05.440
 that

00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:05.740
!

00:30:05.740 --> 00:30:06.900
 There's

00:30:06.900 --> 00:30:07.099
 no

00:30:07.099 --> 00:30:07.539
 place

00:30:07.539 --> 00:30:07.779
 for

00:30:07.779 --> 00:30:08.120
 sarcasm

00:30:08.120 --> 00:30:14.660
 in the

00:30:14.660 --> 00:30:14.920
 heart

00:30:14.920 --> 00:30:15.299
 of the

00:30:15.299 --> 00:30:15.620
 servant

00:30:15.620 --> 00:30:15.880
 of the

00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:16.279
 king

00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:19.940
 there

00:30:19.940 --> 00:30:20.099

00:30:20.099 --> 00:30:20.259
 be

00:30:20.259 --> 00:30:20.819
 tenderness

00:30:20.819 --> 00:30:22.420
 if

00:30:22.420 --> 00:30:22.819
 Jesus

00:30:22.819 --> 00:30:23.200
 dealt

00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:23.400
 with

00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:23.559
 a

00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:23.839
 crowd

00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:24.019
 that

00:30:24.019 --> 00:30:24.160
 was

00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:24.299
 going

00:30:24.299 --> 00:30:24.440
 to

00:30:24.440 --> 00:30:24.980
 crucify

00:30:24.980 --> 00:30:25.200
 him

00:30:25.200 --> 00:30:25.640
 we

00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:25.819

00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:26.160
 a

00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:26.259
 little

00:30:26.259 --> 00:30:26.500
 more

00:30:26.500 --> 00:30:26.940
 gentle

00:30:26.940 --> 00:30:27.420
 with

00:30:27.420 --> 00:30:27.559
 the

00:30:27.559 --> 00:30:27.839
 people

00:30:27.839 --> 00:30:28.059
 that

00:30:30.019 --> 00:30:30.299
 part

00:30:30.299 --> 00:30:30.400

 the

00:30:35.460 --> 00:30:36.019
 unbelievers

00:30:36.019 --> 00:30:36.339
 that he

00:30:36.339 --> 00:30:36.779
 puts us

00:30:36.779 --> 00:30:37.259
 face to

00:30:37.259 --> 00:30:37.740

 to have

00:30:40.980 --> 00:30:41.519
 the same

00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:42.259
 affection and

00:30:42.259 --> 00:30:43.079
 compassion for

00:30:43.079 --> 00:30:43.879
 them that

00:30:43.879 --> 00:30:44.379
 Jesus

00:30:44.379 --> 00:30:45.220
 had

00:30:45.220 --> 00:30:50.099
 oh can I tell you

00:30:50.099 --> 00:30:50.399
 something

00:30:50.399 --> 00:30:52.700
 you're ultimately

00:30:52.700 --> 00:30:53.679
 not going to do

00:30:53.679 --> 00:30:54.379
 very well

00:30:54.379 --> 00:30:55.240
 outside the

00:30:55.240 --> 00:30:55.919
 family if you

00:30:55.919 --> 00:30:56.879
 can't handle it

00:30:56.879 --> 00:30:57.500
 inside the

00:30:57.500 --> 00:30:57.899
 family

00:30:57.899 --> 00:30:59.559
 write that

00:30:59.559 --> 00:30:59.759

00:31:02.379 --> 00:31:03.039
 get a

00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:03.200
 kick

00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:03.359
 out

00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:03.440
 of

00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:03.640
 people

00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:03.779
 who

00:31:04.379 --> 00:31:05.039
 evangelism

00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:05.359
 but they

00:31:05.359 --> 00:31:05.599
 can't

00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:05.920
 get along

00:31:05.920 --> 00:31:06.299
 with people

00:31:30.879 --> 00:31:32.240
 isn't that

00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:32.879
 just kind of

 this

00:31:34.259 --> 00:31:34.599
 this is the

00:31:41.019 --> 00:31:41.599
 Jesus said

00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:42.240
 promising the

00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:42.519
 bread of

00:31:42.519 --> 00:31:42.879
 life

00:31:42.879 --> 00:31:46.140
 I am the

00:31:46.140 --> 00:31:46.440
 bread of

00:31:46.440 --> 00:31:46.859
 life

00:31:46.859 --> 00:31:48.480
 whosoever

00:31:48.480 --> 00:31:48.980

00:31:49.420 --> 00:31:50.000
 not hunger

00:31:50.000 --> 00:31:51.759
 and whosoever

00:31:57.799 --> 00:31:58.140
 saying is

00:31:58.140 --> 00:31:58.620
 this is I'm

00:31:58.620 --> 00:31:59.240
 the only one

00:31:59.240 --> 00:31:59.519
 who can

00:31:59.519 --> 00:32:00.000
 really make

00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:00.579
 a difference

00:32:00.579 --> 00:32:03.019
 isn't that

00:32:03.019 --> 00:32:03.259
 true

00:32:03.259 --> 00:32:05.579
 when you

00:32:06.339 --> 00:32:06.819
 said

00:32:06.819 --> 00:32:08.539
 does your

00:32:08.539 --> 00:32:09.039
 heart kind

00:32:09.039 --> 00:32:09.700
 of rise up

00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:10.140
 within you

00:32:10.140 --> 00:32:10.559
 and say

00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:11.559
 yes

00:32:11.559 --> 00:32:12.819
 do you

00:32:12.819 --> 00:32:13.359
 follow that

00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:14.039
 look at me

00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:15.420
 if your

00:32:15.420 --> 00:32:16.059
 heart is

00:32:16.059 --> 00:32:16.880
 connected to

00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:17.579
 that statement

00:32:17.579 --> 00:32:18.700
 do you know

00:32:18.700 --> 00:32:19.740
 that unbelievers

00:32:19.740 --> 00:32:20.660
 can sense

00:32:20.660 --> 00:32:20.980
 it

00:32:20.980 --> 00:32:25.819
 what it

00:32:25.819 --> 00:32:26.240
 says in

00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:26.740
 first Peter

00:32:26.740 --> 00:32:27.200
 is that

00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:28.360
 when they

00:32:28.360 --> 00:32:29.039
 see it

00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:29.720
 they're going

00:32:29.720 --> 00:32:30.140
 to ask

00:32:30.140 --> 00:32:30.579
 you what's

00:32:30.579 --> 00:32:31.039
 the reason

00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:31.460
 for the

00:32:31.460 --> 00:32:31.839
 hope that

00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:32.400
 lies within

00:32:32.400 --> 00:32:32.700
 you

00:32:32.700 --> 00:32:34.259
 well it's

00:32:34.259 --> 00:32:34.680
 the new

00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:35.339
 therapy that

00:32:35.339 --> 00:32:35.620
 I've been

00:32:35.620 --> 00:32:36.240
 involved in

00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:36.579
 you know

00:32:36.579 --> 00:32:37.740
 I'm taking

00:32:37.740 --> 00:32:38.420
 these pills

00:32:38.420 --> 00:32:39.039
 and they're

00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:39.519
 just doing

00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:45.680
 I got to

00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:45.920
 tell you

00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:46.279
 something

00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:48.860
 why is

00:32:48.860 --> 00:32:49.079
 it

00:32:49.079 --> 00:32:51.220
 that

00:32:51.220 --> 00:32:52.259
 more

00:32:52.259 --> 00:32:52.759
 believers

00:32:52.759 --> 00:32:53.439
 are not

00:32:53.439 --> 00:32:54.460
 impassioned

00:32:54.460 --> 00:32:56.019
 and enthusiastic

00:32:56.019 --> 00:32:57.139
 about Jesus

00:32:57.139 --> 00:32:57.879
 are you

00:32:57.879 --> 00:32:58.139
 listening

00:32:58.139 --> 00:32:58.679
 you're thinking

00:32:58.679 --> 00:32:59.039
 with me

00:32:59.039 --> 00:33:00.819
 it's because

00:33:00.819 --> 00:33:01.359
 they have

00:33:01.359 --> 00:33:01.980
 fallen into

00:33:01.980 --> 00:33:02.439
 the ancient

00:33:02.439 --> 00:33:02.960
 trap of

00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:03.299
 Satan

00:33:03.299 --> 00:33:04.720
 remember

00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:05.119
 Adam and

00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:05.299
 Eve

00:33:05.299 --> 00:33:05.879
 could you

00:33:05.879 --> 00:33:06.119
 have had

00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:06.419
 it any

00:33:06.419 --> 00:33:06.879
 better than

00:33:06.879 --> 00:33:07.220
 Adam and

00:33:07.220 --> 00:33:07.579
 Eve did

00:33:07.579 --> 00:33:07.859
 I mean

00:33:07.859 --> 00:33:08.339
 in some

00:33:08.339 --> 00:33:08.659
 senses

00:33:08.659 --> 00:33:09.039
 you know

00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:13.240
 it's because

00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:13.899
 many

00:33:13.899 --> 00:33:14.819
 of

00:33:14.819 --> 00:33:15.819
 us

00:33:15.819 --> 00:33:17.240
 have been

00:33:17.240 --> 00:33:17.779
 seduced

00:33:17.779 --> 00:33:18.180
 by the

00:33:18.180 --> 00:33:18.519
 lie

00:33:18.519 --> 00:33:18.779
 of

00:33:18.779 --> 00:33:19.240
 Satan

00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:19.579
 that

00:33:19.579 --> 00:33:20.039
 things

00:33:20.039 --> 00:33:20.299
 that

00:33:20.299 --> 00:33:20.599
 do

00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:20.899
 not

00:33:20.899 --> 00:33:21.480
 last

00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:22.059
 forever

00:33:22.059 --> 00:33:22.759
 are

00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:23.200
 worthy

00:33:23.200 --> 00:33:23.680
 of our

00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:24.279
 ambitions

00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:24.779
 and our

00:33:24.779 --> 00:33:25.460
 affections

00:33:25.460 --> 00:33:25.779
 of our

00:33:25.779 --> 00:33:26.440
 checkbook

00:33:26.440 --> 00:33:27.000
 and our

00:33:27.000 --> 00:33:27.599
 time

00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:30.980
 our devotional

00:33:30.980 --> 00:33:31.500
 lives

00:33:31.500 --> 00:33:32.639
 are almost

00:33:32.639 --> 00:33:33.379
 close to

00:33:33.379 --> 00:33:34.139
 bankrupt

00:33:34.139 --> 00:33:37.359
 our prayer

00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:37.819
 time

00:33:37.819 --> 00:33:39.379
 is close

00:33:39.379 --> 00:33:40.099
 to zero

00:33:40.099 --> 00:33:42.440
 and then

00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:43.220
 we go out

00:33:43.220 --> 00:33:43.740
 into an

00:33:43.740 --> 00:33:44.399
 unbelieving

00:33:44.399 --> 00:33:44.700
 and a

00:33:44.700 --> 00:33:45.539
 broken world

00:33:45.539 --> 00:33:46.259
 and we

00:33:46.259 --> 00:33:46.740
 think

00:33:46.740 --> 00:33:47.480
 that just

00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:48.460
 by dropping

00:33:48.460 --> 00:33:48.899
 a couple

00:33:48.899 --> 00:33:50.019
 surly words

00:33:50.019 --> 00:33:50.680
 we can

00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:51.139
 make a

00:33:51.139 --> 00:33:51.519
 difference

00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:51.879
 in the

00:33:51.879 --> 00:33:52.339
 lives of

00:33:52.339 --> 00:33:52.720
 those who

00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:53.159
 are broken

00:33:53.159 --> 00:33:53.779
 by sin

00:33:53.779 --> 00:33:54.139
 it isn't

00:33:54.139 --> 00:33:54.399
 going to

00:33:54.399 --> 00:33:54.819
 happen

00:33:54.819 --> 00:34:00.879
 but when

00:34:00.879 --> 00:34:01.379
 our hearts

00:34:01.379 --> 00:34:01.839
 are lifted

00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:02.440
 up because

00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:03.079
 Jesus is

00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:03.539
 the way

00:34:03.539 --> 00:34:06.619
 and Jesus

00:34:06.619 --> 00:34:07.139
 is the one

00:34:07.139 --> 00:34:07.639
 who can take

00:34:07.639 --> 00:34:08.039
 away the

00:34:08.039 --> 00:34:08.440
 thirst

00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:10.239
 and satisfy

00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:10.739
 the hunger

00:34:10.739 --> 00:34:11.440
 and we

00:34:11.440 --> 00:34:12.179
 know that

00:34:12.179 --> 00:34:14.659
 we know

00:34:14.659 --> 00:34:15.119
 that

00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:18.519
 then our

00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:19.139
 testimonies

00:34:19.139 --> 00:34:19.699
 are powerful

00:34:19.699 --> 00:34:22.199
 so where's

00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:22.500
 that put

00:34:22.500 --> 00:34:22.739
 you

00:34:22.739 --> 00:34:27.659
 where's

00:34:27.659 --> 00:34:27.980
 that put

00:34:27.980 --> 00:34:28.179
 you

00:34:28.179 --> 00:34:30.359
 you see

00:34:30.359 --> 00:34:31.719
 when we

00:34:31.719 --> 00:34:32.279
 talk about

00:34:32.279 --> 00:34:32.659
 Jesus

00:34:32.659 --> 00:34:33.099
 you have

00:34:33.099 --> 00:34:33.419
 to ask

00:34:33.419 --> 00:34:33.759
 yourself

00:34:33.759 --> 00:34:34.399
 a very

00:34:34.399 --> 00:34:34.899
 very basic

00:34:34.899 --> 00:34:35.379
 question

00:34:35.379 --> 00:34:36.099
 number one

00:34:36.099 --> 00:34:36.379
 do I

00:34:36.379 --> 00:34:36.759
 know him

00:34:36.759 --> 00:34:37.039
 right

00:34:37.039 --> 00:34:37.519
 I mean

00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:37.819
 that's

00:34:37.819 --> 00:34:38.159
 important

00:34:38.159 --> 00:34:38.899
 do I

00:34:38.899 --> 00:34:39.259
 know him

00:34:39.259 --> 00:34:40.299
 and you

00:34:40.299 --> 00:34:40.599
 could be

00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:41.099
 sitting here

00:34:41.099 --> 00:34:41.360
 and you

00:34:41.360 --> 00:34:41.759
 don't know

00:34:41.759 --> 00:34:42.079
 Jesus

00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:42.519
 the fact

00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:42.699
 of the

00:34:42.699 --> 00:34:42.880
 matter

00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:43.179
 is

00:34:43.179 --> 00:34:44.039
 if you

00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:44.380
 leave

00:34:44.380 --> 00:34:44.619
 this

00:34:44.619 --> 00:34:44.940
 place

00:34:44.940 --> 00:34:45.299
 and you

00:34:45.299 --> 00:34:45.500
 don't

00:34:45.500 --> 00:34:45.880
 come to

00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:46.119
 grips

00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:46.799
 with the

00:34:46.799 --> 00:34:47.179
 bankruptcy

00:34:47.179 --> 00:34:47.659
 of your

00:34:47.659 --> 00:34:48.279
 own soul

00:34:48.279 --> 00:34:48.639
 and the

00:34:48.639 --> 00:34:48.980
 darkness

00:34:48.980 --> 00:34:49.380
 of your

00:34:49.380 --> 00:34:49.659
 heart

00:34:49.659 --> 00:34:50.360
 there is

00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:51.179
 no hope

00:34:51.179 --> 00:34:51.539
 in

00:34:51.539 --> 00:34:52.259
 eternity

00:34:52.259 --> 00:34:53.579
 and you

00:34:53.579 --> 00:34:54.159
 desperately

00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:55.000
 need

00:34:55.000 --> 00:34:55.819
 Christ

00:34:55.819 --> 00:34:57.860
 and I

00:34:57.860 --> 00:34:57.980
 would

00:34:57.980 --> 00:34:58.299
 plead

00:34:58.299 --> 00:34:58.699
 with you

00:34:58.699 --> 00:34:58.940
 this

00:34:58.940 --> 00:34:59.299
 morning

00:34:59.299 --> 00:35:00.299
 the

00:35:00.299 --> 00:35:00.579
 scriptures

00:35:00.579 --> 00:35:01.059
 make it

00:35:01.059 --> 00:35:01.559
 profoundly

00:35:01.559 --> 00:35:02.000
 simple

00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:02.339
 all you

00:35:02.339 --> 00:35:02.659
 have to

00:35:02.659 --> 00:35:02.880
 do

00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:03.019
 is

00:35:03.019 --> 00:35:03.219
 come

00:35:03.219 --> 00:35:03.319
 to

00:35:03.319 --> 00:35:03.420
 the

00:35:03.420 --> 00:35:03.639
 point

00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:03.759
 of

00:35:03.759 --> 00:35:03.980
 saying

00:35:03.980 --> 00:35:04.179
 yeah

00:35:04.179 --> 00:35:04.619
 what

00:35:04.619 --> 00:35:04.920
 Jesus

00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:05.239
 says

00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:05.519
 about

00:35:05.519 --> 00:35:05.679
 me

00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:05.819
 is

00:35:05.819 --> 00:35:06.079
 true

00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:06.360
 I

00:35:06.360 --> 00:35:06.539
 am

00:35:06.539 --> 00:35:06.759
 a

00:35:06.759 --> 00:35:08.039
 hard

00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:08.619
 hearted

00:35:08.619 --> 00:35:09.519
 unrepentant

00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:09.819
 sinner

00:35:09.819 --> 00:35:10.719
 and the

00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:11.239
 only thing
