WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.839
 Thank you, Gary.

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:07.080
 If you'd like to keep your Bibles open, that'd be great.

00:00:07.640 --> 00:00:12.359
 If you've just joined us, we are in our annual vision series.

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:15.660
 We've been dealing with big topics of things like racism,

00:00:15.839 --> 00:00:17.839
 ethnocentricity, unity, diversity,

00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:20.980
 what does it all look like in terms of working out in a local church.

00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:26.519
 Our vision, hopefully you have heard it many times in the past,

00:00:26.620 --> 00:00:29.440
 hear it again, is to treasure Jesus together

00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:33.039
 that is make Jesus supreme together

00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:36.800
 for God's glory and the joy of all people.

00:00:37.100 --> 00:00:40.579
 Now, I'm convinced that we pursue that vision as a church

00:00:40.579 --> 00:00:44.660
 in a neighbourhood that we're in, a multi-ethnic neighbourhood,

00:00:44.900 --> 00:00:47.740
 by building a multi-ethnic church of people

00:00:47.740 --> 00:00:51.719
 whose hearts are transformed towards one another by Jesus Christ.

00:00:52.480 --> 00:00:57.140
 Now, in this series, I've been making the point really clear

00:00:57.140 --> 00:00:58.799
 again and again and again.

00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:01.339
 This is not about fixing the politics of our world.

00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:04.939
 It's not about a political statements of where we sit with racism.

00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:07.840
 This is a series that's about hearts.

00:01:07.939 --> 00:01:08.840
 It's about your heart.

00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:11.039
 It's about my heart.

00:01:12.299 --> 00:01:13.319
 That's what it's about.

00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:23.159
 And together, I want to talk about those transformed hearts coming together

00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:28.439
 as a local church in relational generosity.

00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:34.179
 That's fundamentally the transformation of God's grace to us

00:01:34.179 --> 00:01:39.619
 is that his radical generosity to us makes us radically generous people,

00:01:39.620 --> 00:01:43.980
 not just with finances, but relationally generous.

00:01:43.980 --> 00:01:51.680
 Being a multi-ethnic church is fundamentally about our relational commitment to each other

00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:56.960
 and not, first and foremost, about structures and how we do things.

00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:01.840
 It's not first and foremost about language and structures and leadership.

00:02:02.080 --> 00:02:04.260
 It's about relational commitment.

00:02:04.260 --> 00:02:12.259
 And I want to pick that issue up today from Luke 17 and a few other verses.

00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:13.780
 So three points today.

00:02:13.860 --> 00:02:16.860
 If you've got the St. Paul's app, it'd be great to open it up

00:02:16.860 --> 00:02:21.099
 or just get a pen and pencil, you know, piece of paper, whatever.

00:02:21.659 --> 00:02:22.540
 Three points.

00:02:23.040 --> 00:02:25.939
 Being a multi-ethnic church requires us to be a community of forgiveness,

00:02:26.620 --> 00:02:29.400
 a community of reconciliation, and a community of love.

00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:31.120
 That's the three points.

00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.700
 And I want to focus on the first point the most.

00:02:34.920 --> 00:02:36.540
 So when I get to the end of the first point, you go,

00:02:36.620 --> 00:02:37.900
 my goodness, he just got through one.

00:02:38.500 --> 00:02:40.000
 That will be the most point.

00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:41.920
 Then I'm going to quickly move through the other two.

00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:45.099
 Okay, a community, a forgiving community.

00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:50.980
 First of all, we notice from Luke 17 that forgiveness is hard.

00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:57.379
 Every single one of us had people out there who owe us.

00:02:57.379 --> 00:03:00.280
 People who, in our mind, owe us.

00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:04.599
 Might not have never met them personally, but we think that they owe us

00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.639
 because of how they've treated us,

00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:12.060
 even if that treatment of us has not been a direct treatment of us.

00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:14.340
 We just assume that they've treated us badly.

00:03:15.099 --> 00:03:17.819
 And we tend to hold it over them in some way,

00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:19.879
 even if it's a secrecy of our own hearts.

00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:27.039
 We might be more demanding of them if we know them personally,

00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:31.680
 or we might just keep bottled it up inside and don't speak of it.

00:03:33.019 --> 00:03:36.019
 Generosity means that you release those things.

00:03:36.579 --> 00:03:37.099
 We let it go.

00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:37.859
 We forgive.

00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:40.000
 Does that sound hard?

00:03:40.620 --> 00:03:45.199
 Well, in Luke 17, it appears the disciples thought forgiveness was hard too.

00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:48.479
 When Jesus starts talking about forgiveness,

00:03:49.219 --> 00:03:52.619
 the first response of the disciples is an emphatic,

00:03:53.099 --> 00:03:55.759
 in the Greek language, increase our faith.

00:03:57.619 --> 00:03:58.679
 Increase our faith.

00:04:00.419 --> 00:04:01.819
 It's another way of saying,

00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:04.699
 Jesus, how on earth is that even possible?

00:04:06.079 --> 00:04:09.179
 How is it even possible for us to forgive like this?

00:04:09.180 --> 00:04:15.180
 Verse 4 is the enormity of the challenge that Jesus puts before the disciples.

00:04:15.340 --> 00:04:20.959
 He says that if your brother sins against you seven times in a day,

00:04:21.300 --> 00:04:25.780
 and seven times he comes to you repentant, you must forgive.

00:04:27.660 --> 00:04:32.160
 Now, the number 7 was symbolic for Jewish people.

00:04:32.620 --> 00:04:36.360
 It's a number that means completeness, fullness, perfection,

00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:39.860
 beyond which nothing more is possible.

00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:46.340
 What Jesus is saying here is worse than you think.

00:04:48.860 --> 00:04:50.980
 Someone put it like this.

00:04:52.139 --> 00:04:56.680
 If a person would wrong you as completely and as fully

00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:02.840
 as any person could ever possibly wrong another human being,

00:05:03.280 --> 00:05:04.580
 you must forgive them.

00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:09.400
 Just let that sit with you for a moment.

00:05:10.139 --> 00:05:11.660
 That's his command on his disciples.

00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:17.160
 Imagine the worst thing that anybody could possibly do to you,

00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:21.360
 something so bad that nothing beyond it is even possible.

00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:26.780
 Jesus says to his disciples, you must forgive them.

00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:32.600
 That's why the disciples say, increase our faith.

00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:37.320
 He's saying, that's impossible, Jesus.

00:05:38.520 --> 00:05:39.280
 That's impossible.

00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:44.100
 It's an enormous challenge.

00:05:44.820 --> 00:05:47.060
 But we cannot shrink back from it.

00:05:47.320 --> 00:05:50.840
 There's a little phrase here that is easy to ignore.

00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:55.599
 And it's actually connected to what follows,

00:05:55.679 --> 00:05:57.939
 not to what the two previous verses is.

00:05:57.939 --> 00:06:00.379
 In verse 3, it's connected to what follows.

00:06:01.579 --> 00:06:04.159
 We connected to normally what is previously,

00:06:04.339 --> 00:06:05.659
 but actually connected to what follows.

00:06:06.039 --> 00:06:08.899
 Jesus starts this section with, watch yourself.

00:06:10.799 --> 00:06:11.879
 Watch yourself.

00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.360
 Then he talks about forgiveness.

00:06:15.659 --> 00:06:22.939
 We are called to watch ourselves when others sin against us.

00:06:24.719 --> 00:06:31.519
 When someone wrongs us, we normally pay a great deal attention to them.

00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:38.439
 Think about how much they have wronged us and how much they have hurt us.

00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:44.959
 Jesus says you are to pay attention to yourself, your own heart.

00:06:47.379 --> 00:06:49.959
 This is so crucial for us.

00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:54.199
 As a multi-ethnic church of diverse people,

00:06:55.339 --> 00:07:01.680
 it is so easy to inadvertently say the wrong thing,

00:07:02.359 --> 00:07:05.959
 to be culturally offensive and not even to be aware of it,

00:07:06.259 --> 00:07:09.560
 to forget someone's name and for deep hurt to be settled in

00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:11.919
 because of someone, I've used the wrong name.

00:07:13.419 --> 00:07:15.120
 It's so easy to hurt.

00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:20.420
 It's so easy just to pack it all in the heart.

00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:23.259
 And Jesus says, watch yourself.

00:07:25.980 --> 00:07:26.840
 Watch yourself.

00:07:26.980 --> 00:07:27.240
 Why?

00:07:27.540 --> 00:07:29.420
 I'll illustrate it, then I'll unpack it.

00:07:30.379 --> 00:07:36.199
 The Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy was married to his wife Sonia for 48 years.

00:07:36.860 --> 00:07:38.600
 On the eve of their wedding,

00:07:39.100 --> 00:07:43.500
 he gave his 18-year-old fiancé his diaries to read.

00:07:43.500 --> 00:07:48.639
 They included the details of his many sexual experiences,

00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:53.839
 including with a servant who worked for him in that moment

00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:56.100
 and who bore him a child.

00:07:56.220 --> 00:08:01.860
 The child who his fiancé was not aware of was, in fact, Leo's child.

00:08:03.220 --> 00:08:05.639
 When she was in her early 70s,

00:08:06.980 --> 00:08:10.420
 she was writing, this is right at the end of her life,

00:08:10.420 --> 00:08:15.120
 she was writing in her own journal very, very bitterly

00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.780
 about what she had read over 50 years earlier.

00:08:19.819 --> 00:08:23.600
 One historian wrote this about that journal entry.

00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:30.500
 For half a century, jealousy and unforgiveness blinded her

00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:36.480
 and in the process destroyed all love for her husband and other people.

00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:41.279
 In other words,

00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:44.500
 she reads of his sin

00:08:44.500 --> 00:08:47.879
 and she's destroyed by it.

00:08:50.379 --> 00:08:51.980
 She's the one who's ruined.

00:08:54.779 --> 00:08:56.300
 Hebrews 12, 15,

00:08:56.300 --> 00:08:59.960
 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God

00:08:59.960 --> 00:09:06.400
 and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.

00:09:07.280 --> 00:09:08.600
 Watch yourself.

00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:14.040
 Because anger, when someone wrongs us,

00:09:14.139 --> 00:09:18.879
 will always tell us it's not actually anger.

00:09:20.300 --> 00:09:23.440
 Anger will tell you that I'm not anger,

00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:24.600
 I am justified,

00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:26.740
 I am truth,

00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:28.320
 I am righteous.

00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:32.200
 But if we keep a hold of that anger,

00:09:32.340 --> 00:09:33.800
 it will defile us.

00:09:35.560 --> 00:09:38.660
 Now there are four words in the English language

00:09:38.660 --> 00:09:43.120
 that all come from the same core root word.

00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:44.760
 They are

00:09:44.760 --> 00:09:45.620
 wrath,

00:09:46.560 --> 00:09:48.000
 which means rage,

00:09:48.580 --> 00:09:49.020
 anger,

00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:49.980
 fury.

00:09:51.460 --> 00:09:51.860
 Reef,

00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:55.400
 which means to twist together flowers,

00:09:55.620 --> 00:09:55.980
 branches,

00:09:56.180 --> 00:09:56.680
 vines.

00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.599
 Writhe,

00:09:58.599 --> 00:10:00.919
 is to be bent out of shape and contorted.

00:10:01.599 --> 00:10:02.379
 And wraith,

00:10:02.500 --> 00:10:04.620
 which is a ghost-like figure,

00:10:04.739 --> 00:10:05.679
 image of someone

00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:08.339
 just before or after their death.

00:10:08.679 --> 00:10:09.599
 They're all connected,

00:10:09.699 --> 00:10:10.639
 the same root word.

00:10:11.459 --> 00:10:13.459
 And when we stay angry with people

00:10:13.459 --> 00:10:14.799
 and we hold a grudge,

00:10:15.599 --> 00:10:18.059
 we stay resentful,

00:10:19.199 --> 00:10:20.620
 we become distorted,

00:10:21.859 --> 00:10:23.639
 twisted by anger.

00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:25.159
 They may well move on.

00:10:26.199 --> 00:10:26.960
 We don't.

00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:31.100
 We become a person who's afraid

00:10:31.100 --> 00:10:36.259
 of trusting another human being.

00:10:39.100 --> 00:10:41.580
 Can you see how that destroys relationships?

00:10:44.740 --> 00:10:46.220
 We become joyless.

00:10:47.439 --> 00:10:48.980
 We become suspicious of people.

00:10:48.980 --> 00:10:50.940
 We demonize others.

00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:53.240
 We become a hard person.

00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:55.480
 If someone wronged you,

00:10:55.940 --> 00:10:58.000
 and if this is the case for you right now,

00:10:58.139 --> 00:10:59.700
 put your heart on high alert.

00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:03.860
 The wrong that's being done to you

00:11:03.860 --> 00:11:05.379
 is probably the least of your problems.

00:11:05.379 --> 00:11:11.919
 So,

00:11:12.779 --> 00:11:14.740
 forgiveness is hard.

00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:17.980
 So what does the practice of forgiveness look like?

00:11:18.019 --> 00:11:19.100
 There are at least three things

00:11:19.100 --> 00:11:20.539
 that we must do

00:11:20.539 --> 00:11:22.480
 if we're to avoid becoming twisted

00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:23.759
 and destroyed by bitterness.

00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:25.340
 The first thing

00:11:25.340 --> 00:11:27.000
 is that we must refuse

00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:28.720
 to caricature

00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.220
 the other person,

00:11:31.299 --> 00:11:32.559
 the person who's wronged us.

00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:36.439
 Jesus is making an important point here

00:11:36.439 --> 00:11:37.679
 when he says,

00:11:38.319 --> 00:11:41.139
 if your brother sins.

00:11:42.359 --> 00:11:43.099
 He's talking about,

00:11:43.299 --> 00:11:44.099
 in this moment,

00:11:44.259 --> 00:11:46.139
 Christians wronging Christians.

00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:48.059
 And he's reminding us

00:11:48.059 --> 00:11:49.779
 that we all have a common family.

00:11:50.779 --> 00:11:51.539
 When our temptation

00:11:51.539 --> 00:11:53.279
 is to highlight the differences,

00:11:54.599 --> 00:11:56.299
 don't forget to emphasize

00:11:56.299 --> 00:11:57.339
 the unity

00:11:57.339 --> 00:11:59.739
 in whose you are.

00:11:59.740 --> 00:12:04.120
 But in Mark 11, 25,

00:12:04.560 --> 00:12:05.360
 Jesus says

00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:06.639
 that we are to forgive

00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:07.799
 anyone

00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:09.159
 who wrongs us.

00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:09.740
 Not just brothers,

00:12:09.940 --> 00:12:10.379
 anyone.

00:12:12.180 --> 00:12:13.680
 And the principle is the same.

00:12:13.779 --> 00:12:14.720
 We must stress

00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:16.360
 that we have

00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:18.680
 a common unity

00:12:18.680 --> 00:12:20.299
 with whoever they are.

00:12:20.460 --> 00:12:22.320
 We share a common humanity

00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:23.480
 in the image of God.

00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:24.919
 Every human being

00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:26.879
 is a complex person

00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:28.659
 made in God's image

00:12:28.659 --> 00:12:29.939
 with great dignity

00:12:29.939 --> 00:12:30.939
 and worth.

00:12:32.259 --> 00:12:33.319
 We also share

00:12:33.319 --> 00:12:34.339
 a common sinfulness

00:12:34.339 --> 00:12:35.179
 with all people.

00:12:36.179 --> 00:12:37.139
 It is impossible

00:12:37.139 --> 00:12:40.219
 to stay angry

00:12:40.219 --> 00:12:42.339
 with someone else

00:12:42.339 --> 00:12:43.659
 unless you feel

00:12:43.659 --> 00:12:45.199
 superior to them.

00:12:47.899 --> 00:12:48.980
 Get that?

00:12:50.259 --> 00:12:51.159
 Let me just let that

00:12:51.159 --> 00:12:51.860
 sink into you

00:12:51.860 --> 00:12:52.579
 a little bit more.

00:12:52.939 --> 00:12:53.819
 It is impossible

00:12:53.819 --> 00:12:55.220
 to stay angry

00:12:55.220 --> 00:12:55.659
 with someone

00:12:55.659 --> 00:12:57.719
 unless you feel

00:12:57.719 --> 00:12:59.159
 superior to them.

00:13:04.939 --> 00:13:06.759
 We must identify

00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:07.679
 with the enemy.

00:13:08.459 --> 00:13:09.199
 We must bring

00:13:09.199 --> 00:13:10.740
 ourselves down

00:13:10.740 --> 00:13:12.000
 in humility

00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:13.360
 and them

00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:14.259
 up

00:13:14.259 --> 00:13:15.360
 in image

00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:15.899
 of God.

00:13:15.899 --> 00:13:20.179
 the second thing

00:13:20.179 --> 00:13:21.279
 we need to do

00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:22.439
 is to inwardly

00:13:22.439 --> 00:13:23.459
 surrender the right

00:13:23.459 --> 00:13:24.980
 to repayment

00:13:24.980 --> 00:13:26.039
 and to pay

00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:26.959
 the debt ourselves.

00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:29.779
 The word for forgive

00:13:29.779 --> 00:13:30.799
 that Jesus uses

00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:31.539
 in this passage

00:13:31.539 --> 00:13:32.919
 is a very specific word

00:13:32.919 --> 00:13:33.899
 that means

00:13:33.899 --> 00:13:35.100
 to release a person

00:13:35.100 --> 00:13:36.379
 from a financial debt

00:13:36.379 --> 00:13:38.639
 and it means

00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:40.159
 to absorb

00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:41.100
 the debt yourself.

00:13:41.100 --> 00:13:44.659
 How do we forgive?

00:13:45.659 --> 00:13:47.620
 We can only forgive

00:13:47.620 --> 00:13:48.720
 if we

00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:50.259
 inwardly

00:13:50.259 --> 00:13:51.560
 inwardly

00:13:51.560 --> 00:13:52.659
 we forgo

00:13:52.659 --> 00:13:55.820
 seeking repayment.

00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:58.159
 Normally

00:13:58.159 --> 00:13:58.840
 if someone

00:13:58.840 --> 00:13:59.840
 makes us happy

00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:02.399
 we in turn

00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:03.180
 seek to make

00:14:03.180 --> 00:14:04.200
 them unhappy.

00:14:04.920 --> 00:14:05.820
 If someone

00:14:05.820 --> 00:14:06.680
 rejects us

00:14:06.680 --> 00:14:08.200
 we in turn

00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:09.200
 seek to reject

00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:09.700
 them.

00:14:09.700 --> 00:14:10.980
 If someone

00:14:10.980 --> 00:14:11.620
 destroys

00:14:11.620 --> 00:14:12.640
 our reputation

00:14:12.640 --> 00:14:14.200
 we destroy

00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:15.720
 their reputation.

00:14:18.160 --> 00:14:19.020
 We might

00:14:19.020 --> 00:14:19.360
 do it

00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:19.840
 directly

00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:20.480
 and tell them

00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:20.840
 off

00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:21.340
 and make

00:14:21.340 --> 00:14:21.660
 them feel

00:14:21.660 --> 00:14:22.080
 bad

00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:22.820
 or we might

00:14:22.820 --> 00:14:23.160
 do it

00:14:23.160 --> 00:14:23.740
 behind their

00:14:23.740 --> 00:14:24.040
 backs

00:14:24.040 --> 00:14:24.480
 and gossip

00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:25.060
 about them

00:14:25.060 --> 00:14:25.440
 and ruin

00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:26.320
 their reputation.

00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:28.520
 The less

00:14:28.520 --> 00:14:29.360
 obvious way

00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:29.720
 though

00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:31.040
 is to

00:14:31.040 --> 00:14:32.460
 inwardly

00:14:32.460 --> 00:14:33.540
 nurture

00:14:33.540 --> 00:14:34.240
 the hurt.

00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:37.040
 Inwardly

00:14:37.040 --> 00:14:37.620
 nurture it.

00:14:38.460 --> 00:14:39.140
 We keep

00:14:39.139 --> 00:14:40.059
 playing it

00:14:40.059 --> 00:14:40.720
 over and

00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:41.360
 over and

00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:42.259
 over again

00:14:42.259 --> 00:14:42.720
 in our

00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:43.319
 minds

00:14:43.319 --> 00:14:44.899
 so that we

00:14:44.899 --> 00:14:45.639
 can stay

00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:46.439
 angry with

00:14:46.439 --> 00:14:46.659
 them.

00:14:48.299 --> 00:14:49.000
 And we

00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:49.639
 take any

00:14:49.639 --> 00:14:50.220
 little bit

00:14:50.220 --> 00:14:50.840
 of feed

00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:51.199
 that we

00:14:51.199 --> 00:14:51.840
 can get

00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:53.039
 to feed

00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:53.779
 it into

00:14:53.779 --> 00:14:54.480
 that anger

00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:54.980
 so the

00:14:54.980 --> 00:14:55.340
 anger

00:14:55.340 --> 00:14:56.299
 just stays

00:14:56.299 --> 00:14:57.100
 really healthy.

00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:01.340
 Whichever

00:15:01.340 --> 00:15:01.779
 way we

00:15:01.779 --> 00:15:02.159
 do it

00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:03.179
 we feel

00:15:03.179 --> 00:15:03.620
 like we

00:15:03.620 --> 00:15:04.080
 are getting

00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:04.919
 repayment.

00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:05.919
 forgiveness

00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:06.719
 but

00:15:06.719 --> 00:15:08.719
 it is

00:15:08.719 --> 00:15:09.439
 instead

00:15:09.439 --> 00:15:10.120
 robbing

00:15:10.120 --> 00:15:11.179
 our life

00:15:11.179 --> 00:15:12.479
 of joy

00:15:12.479 --> 00:15:13.799
 and peace

00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:15.259
 and contentment.

00:15:15.979 --> 00:15:16.439
 We become

00:15:16.439 --> 00:15:16.919
 harder

00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:18.240
 and bitter

00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:19.679
 and twisted

00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:21.240
 and closed

00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:21.699
 off

00:15:21.699 --> 00:15:22.779
 from others.

00:15:25.659 --> 00:15:26.419
 Forgiveness

00:15:26.419 --> 00:15:27.860
 disciples were

00:15:27.860 --> 00:15:28.439
 right here

00:15:28.439 --> 00:15:29.259
 increase our

00:15:29.259 --> 00:15:29.719
 faith.

00:15:31.059 --> 00:15:31.339
 Forgiveness

00:15:31.339 --> 00:15:32.079
 might hurt

00:15:32.079 --> 00:15:32.639
 in the short

00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:33.259
 term because

00:15:33.259 --> 00:15:34.019
 we refuse

00:15:34.019 --> 00:15:34.759
 to repay

00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:35.659
 and instead

00:15:35.659 --> 00:15:36.279
 absorb

00:15:36.279 --> 00:15:36.840
 the debt

00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:37.840
 but it

00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:38.319
 leads to

00:15:38.319 --> 00:15:39.139
 joy and

00:15:39.139 --> 00:15:39.779
 peace and

00:15:39.779 --> 00:15:40.319
 freedom

00:15:40.319 --> 00:15:41.740
 for eternity.

00:15:42.980 --> 00:15:43.399
 The third

00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:43.700
 thing we

00:15:43.700 --> 00:15:44.019
 must do

00:15:44.019 --> 00:15:44.279
 is in

00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:44.879
 verse 3

00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:45.799
 if your

00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:46.360
 brother or

00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:46.939
 sister sins

00:15:46.939 --> 00:15:47.899
 against you

00:15:47.899 --> 00:15:48.720
 rebuke

00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:49.019
 them.

00:15:50.580 --> 00:15:51.059
 That is

00:15:51.059 --> 00:15:51.700
 what it's

00:15:51.700 --> 00:15:52.000
 saying here

00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:52.480
 is it's

00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:53.299
 not loving

00:15:53.299 --> 00:15:54.539
 to let

00:15:54.539 --> 00:15:55.259
 someone go

00:15:55.259 --> 00:15:55.879
 on doing

00:15:55.879 --> 00:15:56.439
 anything

00:15:56.439 --> 00:15:56.899
 that they

00:15:56.899 --> 00:15:57.360
 want

00:15:57.360 --> 00:15:59.340
 but

00:15:59.340 --> 00:16:01.179
 be really

00:16:01.179 --> 00:16:02.000
 careful with

00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:02.659
 this verse.

00:16:03.259 --> 00:16:04.419
 really

00:16:04.419 --> 00:16:04.899
 careful.

00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:06.240
 The purpose

00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:06.539
 of the

00:16:06.539 --> 00:16:07.039
 rebuke

00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:08.100
 here is

00:16:08.100 --> 00:16:08.679
 not to

00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:09.319
 put the

00:16:09.319 --> 00:16:10.220
 other person

00:16:10.220 --> 00:16:10.939
 down.

00:16:11.740 --> 00:16:12.399
 The purpose

00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:12.679
 of the

00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:13.120
 rebuke

00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:13.559
 is in

00:16:13.559 --> 00:16:14.000
 fact to

00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:14.419
 lift them

00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:14.879
 up.

00:16:16.379 --> 00:16:16.960
 It's

00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:17.480
 not to

00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:18.399
 win an

00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:19.100
 argument

00:16:19.100 --> 00:16:20.960
 it is to

00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:21.480
 win them

00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:22.100
 over

00:16:22.100 --> 00:16:24.200
 in relationship.

00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:25.200
 The goal

00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:25.639
 of the

00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:26.080
 rebuke

00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:26.779
 here is

00:16:26.779 --> 00:16:27.519
 restored

00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:28.220
 relationship

00:16:28.220 --> 00:16:29.580
 not a

00:16:29.580 --> 00:16:29.919
 further

00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:30.639
 breaking

00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:31.659
 of the

00:16:31.659 --> 00:16:32.240
 relationship.

00:16:33.259 --> 00:16:34.759
 the truth

00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:35.480
 must be

00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:36.100
 spoken in

00:16:36.100 --> 00:16:36.500
 love for

00:16:36.500 --> 00:16:36.759
 the other

00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:37.259
 person.

00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:37.960
 We need

00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:38.799
 to inwardly

00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:39.360
 forgive

00:16:39.360 --> 00:16:41.120
 then rebuke

00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:41.960
 in order

00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:42.759
 to reconcile.

00:16:43.700 --> 00:16:44.179
 In other

00:16:44.179 --> 00:16:44.600
 words we

00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:45.200
 must seek

00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:45.919
 the good

00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:47.679
 and we

00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:48.700
 must will

00:16:48.700 --> 00:16:49.519
 the good

00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:50.340
 of the

00:16:50.340 --> 00:16:50.939
 person we

00:16:50.939 --> 00:16:51.779
 perceive to

00:16:51.779 --> 00:16:52.840
 have wronged

00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:53.340
 us and I

00:16:53.340 --> 00:16:54.259
 emphasize the

00:16:54.259 --> 00:16:55.139
 word perceived

00:16:55.139 --> 00:16:56.519
 to have

00:16:56.519 --> 00:16:57.319
 wronged us.

00:16:57.320 --> 00:17:01.260
 we need

00:17:01.260 --> 00:17:02.100
 to will

00:17:02.100 --> 00:17:02.879
 the good

00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:03.360
 of the

00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:03.680
 other

00:17:03.680 --> 00:17:05.460
 and if

00:17:05.460 --> 00:17:05.779
 you're a

00:17:05.779 --> 00:17:06.160
 Christian

00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:09.100
 if you

00:17:09.100 --> 00:17:09.820
 are not

00:17:09.820 --> 00:17:10.240
 spending

00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:10.840
 extensive

00:17:10.840 --> 00:17:11.360
 time

00:17:11.360 --> 00:17:12.019
 praying

00:17:12.019 --> 00:17:13.200
 about the

00:17:13.200 --> 00:17:13.779
 individual

00:17:13.779 --> 00:17:14.440
 and their

00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:14.980
 goodwill

00:17:14.980 --> 00:17:15.600
 before you

00:17:15.600 --> 00:17:16.019
 seek to

00:17:16.019 --> 00:17:16.380
 rebuke

00:17:16.380 --> 00:17:16.640
 them

00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:18.200
 don't

00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:18.779
 assume

00:17:18.779 --> 00:17:19.460
 even for

00:17:19.460 --> 00:17:20.080
 a moment

00:17:20.080 --> 00:17:20.640
 that you're

00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:21.000
 doing it

00:17:21.000 --> 00:17:21.340
 with good

00:17:21.340 --> 00:17:21.900
 intentions.

00:17:21.900 --> 00:17:27.840
 what that

00:17:27.840 --> 00:17:28.259
 ultimately

00:17:28.259 --> 00:17:29.060
 means is

00:17:29.060 --> 00:17:29.560
 we chuck

00:17:29.560 --> 00:17:30.000
 out the

00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:30.280
 old

00:17:30.280 --> 00:17:30.840
 statement

00:17:30.840 --> 00:17:32.680
 I forgive

00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:33.019
 them

00:17:33.019 --> 00:17:34.259
 but I

00:17:34.259 --> 00:17:34.620
 just don't

00:17:34.620 --> 00:17:34.860
 want to

00:17:34.860 --> 00:17:35.200
 see them

00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:35.480
 or having

00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:35.860
 to do

00:17:35.860 --> 00:17:36.220
 with them.

00:17:38.420 --> 00:17:39.019
 That

00:17:39.019 --> 00:17:39.480
 statement

00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:40.740
 is not

00:17:40.740 --> 00:17:41.040
 biblical

00:17:41.040 --> 00:17:41.800
 in any

00:17:41.800 --> 00:17:42.080
 way.

00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:45.880
 To say

00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:46.540
 that means

00:17:46.540 --> 00:17:46.900
 that you

00:17:46.900 --> 00:17:47.540
 might not

00:17:47.540 --> 00:17:47.900
 in fact

00:17:47.900 --> 00:17:48.460
 be seeking

00:17:48.460 --> 00:17:48.960
 vengeance

00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:51.100
 on them

00:17:51.099 --> 00:17:52.419
 but you

00:17:52.419 --> 00:17:52.879
 are not

00:17:52.879 --> 00:17:53.259
 seeking

00:17:53.259 --> 00:17:53.779
 their good

00:17:53.779 --> 00:17:54.279
 either.

00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:56.599
 So watch

00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:57.139
 yourself.

00:18:00.259 --> 00:18:01.159
 So lastly

00:18:01.159 --> 00:18:01.759
 on this

00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:02.139
 point

00:18:02.139 --> 00:18:03.279
 unlocking

00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:03.799
 forgiveness.

00:18:05.219 --> 00:18:05.519
 So by

00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:05.839
 now

00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:06.819
 you might

00:18:06.819 --> 00:18:07.219
 be

00:18:07.219 --> 00:18:08.279
 echoing

00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:08.519
 in the

00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:08.679
 bottom

00:18:08.679 --> 00:18:08.939
 of your

00:18:08.939 --> 00:18:09.219
 heart

00:18:09.219 --> 00:18:09.759
 increase

00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:10.059
 my

00:18:10.059 --> 00:18:10.519
 faith.

00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:11.719
 I hope

00:18:11.719 --> 00:18:12.199
 you are.

00:18:14.399 --> 00:18:14.959
 It's a

00:18:14.959 --> 00:18:16.019
 core

00:18:16.019 --> 00:18:16.459
 element

00:18:16.459 --> 00:18:16.919
 of our

00:18:16.919 --> 00:18:17.740
 community

00:18:17.740 --> 00:18:18.259
 here.

00:18:20.399 --> 00:18:21.039
 Fortunately

00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:21.579
 Jesus

00:18:21.579 --> 00:18:21.940
 has given

00:18:21.940 --> 00:18:22.240
 us a

00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:22.440
 good

00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:22.899
 answer

00:18:22.899 --> 00:18:23.079
 to

00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:23.279
 what

00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:23.720
 follows

00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:23.940
 in

00:18:23.940 --> 00:18:24.180
 verse

00:18:24.180 --> 00:18:24.799
 five.

00:18:25.700 --> 00:18:25.980
 In

00:18:25.980 --> 00:18:26.259
 these

00:18:26.259 --> 00:18:26.599
 verses

00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:26.859
 we

00:18:26.859 --> 00:18:27.000
 have

00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:27.180
 a

00:18:27.180 --> 00:18:27.599
 parable

00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:28.079
 and

00:18:28.079 --> 00:18:28.220
 a

00:18:28.220 --> 00:18:28.500
 metaphor.

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:29.940
 The

00:18:29.940 --> 00:18:30.440
 parable

00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:30.960
 starts

00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:31.159
 at

00:18:31.159 --> 00:18:31.379
 verse

00:18:31.379 --> 00:18:31.879
 seven.

00:18:32.819 --> 00:18:33.079
 Suppose

00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:33.759
 you were

00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:33.960
 the

00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:34.200
 Lord,

00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:34.359
 the

00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:34.680
 master,

00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:34.879
 the

00:18:34.879 --> 00:18:35.039
 owner

00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:35.259
 of a

00:18:35.259 --> 00:18:35.599
 property

00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:35.879
 and

00:18:35.879 --> 00:18:36.019
 you

00:18:36.019 --> 00:18:36.180
 had

00:18:36.180 --> 00:18:36.399
 some

00:18:36.399 --> 00:18:36.700
 people

00:18:36.700 --> 00:18:37.039
 plowing

00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:37.200
 the

00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:37.519
 paddocks

00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:37.859
 and looking

00:18:37.859 --> 00:18:38.319
 after your

00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:38.639
 livestock

00:18:38.639 --> 00:18:39.259
 for you.

00:18:39.879 --> 00:18:40.099
 At

00:18:40.099 --> 00:18:40.359
 the end

00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:40.579
 of the

00:18:40.579 --> 00:18:40.960
 day

00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:41.819
 would

00:18:41.819 --> 00:18:42.039
 you

00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:42.539
 say

00:18:42.539 --> 00:18:43.539
 it's

00:18:43.539 --> 00:18:43.920
 time to

00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:44.180
 finish

00:18:44.180 --> 00:18:44.480
 up,

00:18:44.879 --> 00:18:45.039
 come

00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:45.399
 on in

00:18:45.399 --> 00:18:45.759
 for

00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:46.000
 dinner.

00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:47.960
 would

00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:48.140
 you

00:18:48.140 --> 00:18:48.640
 say

00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:50.099
 thank

00:18:50.099 --> 00:18:50.359
 you

00:18:50.359 --> 00:18:50.759
 so

00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:51.099
 much

00:18:51.099 --> 00:18:51.359
 for the

00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:51.519
 way

00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:51.640
 that

00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:51.799
 you've

00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:52.019
 taken

00:18:52.019 --> 00:18:52.299
 care

00:18:52.299 --> 00:18:52.400
 of

00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:52.559
 my

00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:52.799
 sheep

00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:53.099
 today

00:18:53.099 --> 00:18:53.380
 and my

00:18:53.380 --> 00:18:53.619
 goats

00:18:53.619 --> 00:18:53.880
 and my

00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:54.160
 chickens.

00:18:54.160 --> 00:18:57.120
 Now to

00:18:57.120 --> 00:18:57.279
 the

00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:57.680
 apostles

00:18:57.680 --> 00:18:58.220
 hearing

00:18:58.220 --> 00:18:58.720
 this

00:18:58.720 --> 00:18:58.940
 from

00:18:58.940 --> 00:18:59.360
 Jesus

00:18:59.360 --> 00:19:00.180
 in

00:19:00.180 --> 00:19:00.320
 the

00:19:00.320 --> 00:19:00.560
 first

00:19:00.560 --> 00:19:01.100
 century

00:19:01.100 --> 00:19:02.540
 the

00:19:02.540 --> 00:19:02.980
 apostles

00:19:02.980 --> 00:19:03.380
 answer

00:19:03.380 --> 00:19:03.540
 to

00:19:03.540 --> 00:19:03.720
 that

00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:03.900
 would

00:19:03.900 --> 00:19:04.240
 be

00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:05.420
 no

00:19:05.420 --> 00:19:06.620
 no

00:19:06.620 --> 00:19:07.360
 no

00:19:07.360 --> 00:19:07.519
 you

00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:07.800
 wouldn't

00:19:07.800 --> 00:19:08.060
 say

00:19:08.060 --> 00:19:08.240
 that

00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:08.340
 at

00:19:08.340 --> 00:19:08.519
 all

00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:08.640
 to

00:19:08.640 --> 00:19:08.800
 your

00:19:08.800 --> 00:19:09.259
 servants

00:19:09.259 --> 00:19:10.220
 that's

00:19:10.220 --> 00:19:10.660
 ridiculous

00:19:10.660 --> 00:19:12.220
 us

00:19:12.220 --> 00:19:12.640
 modern

00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:13.040
 people

00:19:13.040 --> 00:19:13.400
 hear it

00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:13.580
 very

00:19:13.580 --> 00:19:14.000
 differently

00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:14.740
 we

00:19:14.740 --> 00:19:14.880
 would

00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:15.060
 say

00:19:15.060 --> 00:19:15.240
 of

00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:15.400
 course

00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:15.540
 we

00:19:15.540 --> 00:19:15.640
 want

00:26:04.019 --> 00:26:04.599
 in life

00:26:04.599 --> 00:26:04.879
 and all

00:26:04.879 --> 00:26:05.079
 of a

00:26:05.079 --> 00:26:05.339
 sudden

00:26:05.339 --> 00:26:06.000
 I

00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:06.480
 go that

00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:06.980
 direction

00:26:06.980 --> 00:26:07.699
 in life

00:26:07.699 --> 00:26:08.199
 towards

00:26:08.199 --> 00:26:08.579
 God

00:26:08.579 --> 00:26:08.839
 it means

00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:09.079
 going

00:26:09.079 --> 00:26:09.459
 back

00:26:09.459 --> 00:26:09.639
 to

00:26:09.639 --> 00:26:10.079
 God

00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:10.959
 repentance

00:26:10.959 --> 00:26:11.579
 means to

00:26:11.579 --> 00:26:11.919
 alter

00:26:11.919 --> 00:26:12.219
 our

00:26:12.219 --> 00:26:12.599
 habits

00:26:12.599 --> 00:26:12.740
 our

00:26:12.740 --> 00:26:13.159
 behavior

00:26:13.159 --> 00:26:13.679
 attitudes

00:26:13.679 --> 00:26:13.980
 our

00:26:13.980 --> 00:26:14.359
 outlook

00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:14.559
 our

00:26:14.559 --> 00:26:14.980
 policy

00:26:14.980 --> 00:26:15.179
 our

00:26:15.179 --> 00:26:15.679
 direction

00:26:15.679 --> 00:26:16.179
 and

00:26:16.179 --> 00:26:16.339
 our

00:26:16.339 --> 00:26:16.839
 behavior

00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:17.719
 repentance

00:26:17.719 --> 00:26:18.559
 is

00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:19.179
 about

00:26:19.179 --> 00:26:20.159
 spiritual

00:26:20.159 --> 00:26:21.379
 revolution

00:26:21.379 --> 00:26:23.599
 so what

00:26:23.599 --> 00:26:23.859
 does it

00:26:23.859 --> 00:26:24.399
 mean to

00:26:24.399 --> 00:26:25.039
 repent of

00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:25.500
 racism

00:26:25.500 --> 00:26:25.659
 and

00:26:25.659 --> 00:26:26.579
 ethnocentricity

00:26:26.579 --> 00:26:29.319
 repenting

00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:29.879
 first and

00:26:29.879 --> 00:26:30.319
 foremost

00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:31.019
 is to

00:26:31.019 --> 00:26:31.419
 God

00:26:31.420 --> 00:26:33.360
 to

00:26:33.360 --> 00:26:33.720
 God

00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:34.940
 all

00:26:34.940 --> 00:26:35.400
 sin

00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:35.759
 is

00:26:35.759 --> 00:26:36.279
 ultimately

00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:36.779
 sin

00:26:36.779 --> 00:26:37.279
 against

00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:37.720
 him

00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:38.620
 against

00:26:38.620 --> 00:26:38.960
 his

00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:39.340
 will

00:26:39.340 --> 00:26:39.800
 and

00:26:39.800 --> 00:26:40.039
 his

00:26:40.039 --> 00:26:40.279
 good

00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:40.840
 creation

00:26:40.840 --> 00:26:41.860
 it's

00:26:41.860 --> 00:26:42.360
 crucial

00:26:42.360 --> 00:26:43.380
 that we

00:26:43.380 --> 00:26:43.880
 repent

00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:44.539
 for the

00:26:44.539 --> 00:26:44.740
 more

00:26:44.740 --> 00:26:45.240
 deliberate

00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:45.759
 ways

00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:46.060
 that we

00:26:46.060 --> 00:26:46.240
 have

00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:46.800
 violated

00:26:46.800 --> 00:26:47.039
 the

00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:47.259
 image

00:26:47.259 --> 00:26:47.420
 of

00:26:47.420 --> 00:26:47.779
 God

00:26:47.779 --> 00:26:49.360
 neighborhood

00:26:49.360 --> 00:26:50.480
 love

00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:51.060
 love of

00:26:51.060 --> 00:26:51.220
 our

00:26:51.220 --> 00:26:51.600
 neighbors

00:26:51.600 --> 00:26:52.539
 and the

00:26:52.539 --> 00:26:52.720
 new

00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:53.240
 creation

00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:53.759
 and the

00:26:53.759 --> 00:26:54.060
 gospel

00:26:54.060 --> 00:26:54.480
 of God's

00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:54.680
 grace

00:26:54.680 --> 00:26:55.000
 to us

00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:55.160
 in

00:26:55.160 --> 00:26:55.440
 Jesus

00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:55.980
 Christ

00:26:55.980 --> 00:26:57.720
 now keep

00:26:57.720 --> 00:26:58.500
 in mind

00:26:58.500 --> 00:26:59.960
 that we

00:26:59.960 --> 00:27:00.680
 are all

00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:01.120
 called

00:27:01.120 --> 00:27:01.759
 not only

00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:02.319
 to repent

00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:03.200
 of deliberate

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:04.079
 and known

00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:04.579
 sin

00:27:04.579 --> 00:27:05.819
 but also

00:27:05.819 --> 00:27:06.279
 for the

00:27:06.279 --> 00:27:06.759
 sins that

00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:07.180
 we are

00:27:07.180 --> 00:27:07.920
 unaware

00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:08.640
 of

00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:11.099
 such as

00:27:11.099 --> 00:27:11.640
 Job

00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:13.539
 repenting

00:27:13.539 --> 00:27:14.059
 on behalf

00:27:14.059 --> 00:27:14.519
 of his

00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:15.000
 children

00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:15.779
 just in

00:27:15.779 --> 00:27:16.240
 case

00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:16.880
 they

00:27:16.880 --> 00:27:18.319
 sinned

00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:19.000
 Psalm

00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:19.640
 19

00:27:19.640 --> 00:27:20.039
 verse

00:27:20.039 --> 00:27:20.759
 12

00:27:20.759 --> 00:27:22.779
 but who

00:27:22.779 --> 00:27:23.519
 can discern

00:27:23.519 --> 00:27:24.160
 their own

00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:24.700
 errors

00:27:24.700 --> 00:27:26.880
 forgive

00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:28.059
 my

00:27:28.059 --> 00:27:28.539
 hidden

00:27:28.539 --> 00:27:29.220
 faults

00:27:29.220 --> 00:27:30.940
 that's a

00:27:30.940 --> 00:27:31.240
 prayer of

00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:31.600
 repentance

00:27:31.600 --> 00:27:31.980
 from

00:27:31.980 --> 00:27:32.840
 Psalm

00:27:32.840 --> 00:27:33.500
 19

00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:34.620
 please

00:27:34.620 --> 00:27:35.059
 forgive

00:27:35.059 --> 00:27:35.259
 me

00:27:35.259 --> 00:27:35.559
 for the

00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:35.920
 things

00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:36.220
 that I

00:27:36.220 --> 00:27:36.500
 don't

00:27:36.500 --> 00:27:36.700
 even

00:27:36.700 --> 00:27:37.000
 know

00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:37.360
 that I've

00:27:37.360 --> 00:27:37.680
 done

00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:40.420
 so the

00:27:40.420 --> 00:27:40.759
 Christian

00:27:40.759 --> 00:27:41.220
 should be

00:27:41.220 --> 00:27:41.640
 willing to

00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:42.080
 repent

00:27:42.080 --> 00:27:42.360
 for the

00:27:42.360 --> 00:27:42.799
 ways in

00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:43.160
 which we

00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:43.519
 may be

00:27:43.519 --> 00:27:43.860
 committing

00:27:43.860 --> 00:27:44.080
 the

00:27:44.080 --> 00:27:44.360
 sin of

00:27:44.360 --> 00:27:44.799
 racism

00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:45.340
 and

00:27:45.340 --> 00:27:46.420
 ethnocentricity

00:27:46.420 --> 00:27:47.380
 of which

00:27:47.380 --> 00:27:47.740
 we are

00:27:47.740 --> 00:27:48.200
 barely

00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:48.740
 even

00:27:48.740 --> 00:27:49.480
 conscience

00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:50.279
 of

00:27:50.279 --> 00:27:57.519
 I'm

00:27:57.519 --> 00:27:57.799
 of the

00:27:57.799 --> 00:27:58.139
 view

00:27:58.139 --> 00:27:59.559
 that

00:27:59.559 --> 00:27:59.980
 corporate

00:27:59.980 --> 00:28:00.539
 repentance

00:28:00.539 --> 00:28:01.539
 at least

00:28:01.539 --> 00:28:02.559
 comes to

00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:02.960
 grips

00:28:02.960 --> 00:28:03.899
 with the

00:28:03.899 --> 00:28:04.359
 way that

00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:04.660
 our

00:28:04.660 --> 00:28:05.319
 society

00:28:05.319 --> 00:28:05.759
 has

00:28:05.759 --> 00:28:06.160
 treated

00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:06.599
 various

00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:06.899
 groups

00:28:06.899 --> 00:28:07.039
 of

00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:07.299
 people

00:28:07.299 --> 00:28:07.579
 in

00:28:07.579 --> 00:28:07.759
 the

00:28:07.759 --> 00:28:08.319
 past

00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:09.920
 I'm

00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:10.259
 of that

00:28:10.259 --> 00:28:10.559
 view

00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:12.399
 the

00:28:12.399 --> 00:28:12.680
 Bible

00:28:12.680 --> 00:28:13.379
 always

00:28:13.379 --> 00:28:13.980
 says

00:28:13.980 --> 00:28:14.279
 that

00:28:14.279 --> 00:28:14.460
 we

00:28:14.460 --> 00:28:15.619
 have

00:28:15.619 --> 00:28:16.039
 not

00:28:16.039 --> 00:28:16.619
 repented

00:28:16.619 --> 00:28:17.519
 if we

00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:17.700
 have

00:28:17.700 --> 00:28:18.119
 not

00:28:18.119 --> 00:28:18.759
 changed

00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:19.099
 and we

00:28:19.099 --> 00:28:19.240
 have

00:28:19.240 --> 00:28:19.519
 not

00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:20.019
 produced

00:28:20.019 --> 00:28:20.559
 fruit

00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:21.140
 in

00:28:21.140 --> 00:28:21.480
 keeping

00:28:21.480 --> 00:28:21.819
 with

00:28:21.819 --> 00:28:22.319
 repentance

00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:23.640
 that's

00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:23.900
 Matthew

00:28:23.900 --> 00:28:24.240
 3

00:28:24.240 --> 00:28:24.599
 8

00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:26.299
 and

00:28:26.299 --> 00:28:26.559
 this

00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:27.000
 fruit

00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:27.240
 of

00:28:27.240 --> 00:28:27.640
 repentance

00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:28.059
 will

00:28:28.059 --> 00:28:29.039
 take

00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:29.559
 various

00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:30.259
 forms

00:28:30.259 --> 00:28:31.359
 depending

00:28:31.359 --> 00:28:31.819
 on

00:28:31.819 --> 00:28:32.180
 who's

00:28:32.180 --> 00:28:32.480
 doing

00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:32.680
 the

00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:33.319
 repenting

00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:36.680
 now

00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:36.960
 I think

00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:37.220
 there are

00:28:37.220 --> 00:28:37.900
 two ways

00:28:37.900 --> 00:28:38.180
 that a

00:28:38.180 --> 00:28:38.379
 church

00:28:38.379 --> 00:28:38.799
 like this

00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:38.980
 can

00:28:38.980 --> 00:28:39.519
 produce

00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:40.379
 such

00:28:40.379 --> 00:28:40.720
 fruit

00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:40.859
 of

00:28:40.859 --> 00:28:41.279
 repentance

00:28:43.980 --> 00:28:44.640
 we

00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:45.059
 bear

00:28:45.059 --> 00:28:45.359
 the

 fruit

00:28:45.700 --> 00:28:46.059
 of

00:28:46.059 --> 00:28:46.539
 repentance

00:28:46.539 --> 00:28:47.579
 is

00:28:48.539 --> 00:28:49.139
 church

00:28:49.139 --> 00:28:49.659

00:28:49.939 --> 00:28:50.819
 sacrifices

00:28:54.779 --> 00:28:56.279
 so

00:28:56.279 --> 00:28:56.479
 that

00:28:56.479 --> 00:28:56.779
 we

00:28:56.779 --> 00:28:57.639
 continue

00:28:57.639 --> 00:28:57.919
 to

00:28:57.919 --> 00:28:58.399
 grow

00:28:58.399 --> 00:28:59.059
 into

 cultural

00:29:05.359 --> 00:29:05.799
 barriers

00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:06.039
 that

00:29:06.039 --> 00:29:06.519
 divide

00:29:06.519 --> 00:29:06.839
 this

00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:07.239
 world

00:29:07.239 --> 00:29:07.779
 outside

00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:10.819
 it

00:29:10.819 --> 00:29:11.299
 inside

 the

00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:12.019
 church

00:29:12.019 --> 00:29:12.979
 because

00:29:12.979 --> 00:29:13.179

00:29:13.479 --> 00:29:13.579
 of

 gospel

00:29:14.019 --> 00:29:15.459
 that's

00:29:15.459 --> 00:29:15.799
 one

00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:16.059
 way

00:29:16.059 --> 00:29:16.259
 we

00:29:16.259 --> 00:29:16.500
 bear

00:29:16.500 --> 00:29:16.699
 the

 fruit

00:29:17.099 --> 00:29:17.859
 of

00:29:17.859 --> 00:29:18.379
 repentance

00:29:18.379 --> 00:29:24.619
 that

00:29:24.619 --> 00:29:24.759
 in

00:29:24.759 --> 00:29:25.259
 itself

00:29:25.259 --> 00:29:25.559
 should

00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:25.879
 tell

00:29:25.879 --> 00:29:26.119
 us

00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:26.339
 that

00:29:26.339 --> 00:29:26.619
 fruit

00:29:26.619 --> 00:29:27.439
 of

00:29:27.439 --> 00:29:27.839
 repentance

00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:28.159
 is

00:29:28.159 --> 00:29:28.679
 hard

00:29:28.679 --> 00:29:31.619
 it

00:29:31.619 --> 00:29:31.799
 is

00:29:31.799 --> 00:29:32.179
 filled

00:29:32.179 --> 00:29:32.419
 with

00:29:32.419 --> 00:29:33.000
 difficulties

00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:34.619
 and

00:29:34.619 --> 00:29:34.819
 it

00:29:34.819 --> 00:29:35.399
 causes

00:29:35.399 --> 00:29:35.980
 a

00:29:36.959 --> 00:29:37.259
 people

00:29:37.259 --> 00:29:37.599
 to

00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:37.939
 walk

00:29:37.939 --> 00:29:38.519
 away

00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:39.139
 from

00:29:44.500 --> 00:29:45.759
 that's

00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:45.879
 not

00:29:45.879 --> 00:29:45.960
 a

 reflection

00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:46.519
 just

00:30:48.679 --> 00:30:48.939
 I

00:30:48.939 --> 00:30:49.240
 preached

00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:49.379
 on

00:30:49.379 --> 00:30:49.519
 the

00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:49.859
 parable

00:30:49.859 --> 00:30:49.980
 of

00:30:49.980 --> 00:30:50.059
 the

00:30:50.059 --> 00:30:50.220
 good

00:30:50.220 --> 00:30:50.740
 samaritan

00:30:50.740 --> 00:30:50.899
 and

00:30:50.899 --> 00:30:51.039
 the

00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:51.279
 call

00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:51.480
 to

00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:51.659
 love

00:30:51.659 --> 00:30:51.859
 your

00:30:51.859 --> 00:30:52.220
 neighbor

00:30:52.220 --> 00:30:53.319
 so

00:30:53.319 --> 00:30:53.419
 I'm

00:30:53.419 --> 00:30:53.500
 not

00:30:53.500 --> 00:30:53.599
 going

00:30:53.599 --> 00:30:53.919
 to

00:30:53.919 --> 00:30:54.619
 re-preach

00:30:54.619 --> 00:30:54.939
 that

00:30:54.939 --> 00:30:55.759
 but

00:30:55.759 --> 00:30:55.899
 there

00:30:55.899 --> 00:30:56.019
 was

00:30:56.019 --> 00:30:56.240
 one

00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:56.500
 point

00:30:56.500 --> 00:30:56.720
 I

00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:57.240
 left

00:30:57.240 --> 00:30:57.759

00:30:57.759 --> 00:30:57.939
 I'll

00:30:57.939 --> 00:30:58.119

00:30:58.119 --> 00:30:58.279
 up

00:30:58.279 --> 00:30:58.559
 now

00:30:58.559 --> 00:30:58.720
 it's

00:30:58.720 --> 00:30:58.819
 just

00:30:58.819 --> 00:30:58.919
 a

00:31:06.139 --> 00:31:06.539
 hopefully

00:31:06.539 --> 00:31:07.319

00:33:02.259 --> 00:33:03.200
 underestimate

00:33:03.200 --> 00:33:03.820
 the role

00:33:03.820 --> 00:33:04.400
 you play

00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:04.780
 simply

00:33:04.780 --> 00:33:05.420
 by turning
