00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.900
 All right, well, this morning we come to the finale of this story in John that we've been

00:00:07.900 --> 00:00:09.480
 looking at over the past couple weeks.

00:00:10.120 --> 00:00:16.219
 We heard of how Jesus healed a man who was born blind, and it was an amazing sign that

00:00:16.219 --> 00:00:22.019
 Jesus is indeed the light of the world, the one who enables us to see, the revealer of

00:00:22.019 --> 00:00:22.379
 truth.

00:00:24.080 --> 00:00:27.699
 And we heard about the various reactions of people to this miracle.

00:00:27.699 --> 00:00:33.640
 Some of those who knew him when he was blind and was a beggar were astounded.

00:00:34.659 --> 00:00:37.899
 Others simply couldn't believe that this was the same guy.

00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:44.939
 And then last Sunday we heard how they finally took this man who had been blind to the Pharisees,

00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:47.780
 and we heard their reaction to all this.

00:00:48.620 --> 00:00:49.960
 We're in John chapter 9.

00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:51.960
 They were divided.

00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:58.160
 Some of them were trying to make a case that Jesus can't be from God because he made mud

00:00:58.160 --> 00:00:59.420
 to heal this man's eyes.

00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:01.660
 He made mud on the Sabbath, and that's work.

00:01:02.939 --> 00:01:04.219
 Others thought differently.

00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:11.879
 Why would God work this great sign through Jesus if Jesus was not a righteous man, if

00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:14.060
 he was sinning even in the act of doing it?

00:01:14.060 --> 00:01:22.260
 And the Pharisees questioned the man's parents, and then they questioned the man himself again

00:01:22.260 --> 00:01:23.280
 and again and again.

00:01:23.420 --> 00:01:29.520
 They were just looking for some way to invalidate this miracle or to discredit Jesus.

00:01:30.620 --> 00:01:35.800
 And we heard last Sunday how finally the man had enough, and he let the Pharisees know

00:01:35.800 --> 00:01:36.879
 what he was really thinking.

00:01:37.320 --> 00:01:41.680
 And then we heard how the Pharisees let him have it and kicked him out of the synagogue.

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:49.840
 Well, let's hear the rest of the story this morning from John chapter 9, verse 35.

00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:58.020
 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said,

00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:00.680
 Do you believe in the Son of Man?

00:02:01.940 --> 00:02:03.580
 Who is he, sir?

00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:04.840
 The man asked.

00:02:05.340 --> 00:02:08.080
 Tell me so that I may believe in him.

00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:16.000
 So Jesus actually goes and finds this man, and when he finds him, he asks him this question,

00:02:16.160 --> 00:02:18.160
 Do you believe in the Son of Man?

00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:23.740
 And I think to really appreciate this question, we kind of have to put ourselves back there

00:02:23.740 --> 00:02:24.580
 in the story.

00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.860
 This man is a Jewish man living in a Jewish place.

00:02:28.860 --> 00:02:33.860
 And so this question probably hit him differently than it hits us.

00:02:34.580 --> 00:02:41.680
 He probably already has some ideas, some things that he's heard about what the Son of Man was.

00:02:42.980 --> 00:02:48.540
 Not only that, but Jesus probably knew what this man already understood of the Son of Man.

00:02:49.340 --> 00:02:54.220
 Either he knew it how he knew all sorts of things about people, or he knew it simply by talking to him

00:02:54.219 --> 00:02:56.639
 before he came to ask this question.

00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:00.560
 And we don't know exactly what the man understood,

00:03:01.500 --> 00:03:06.539
 but he probably understood the Son of Man at the very least to refer to the Messiah.

00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:14.719
 Most people back then and there had some conception of who the Messiah would be,

00:03:14.780 --> 00:03:17.219
 or at least what he would be like when he came.

00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:20.560
 We saw that with the woman at the well in John chapter 4.

00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:27.280
 Maybe this man even knew of the words of the prophet Daniel, spoken hundreds of years before.

00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.939
 Daniel chapter 7, verse 13 and 14.

00:03:34.500 --> 00:03:38.939
 In that passage, Daniel describes a vision that he received from God.

00:03:39.060 --> 00:03:39.340
 He says,

00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:45.659
 In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a Son of Man,

00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:48.439
 coming with the clouds of heaven.

00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:54.819
 He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence.

00:03:55.699 --> 00:04:00.699
 He was given authority, glory, and sovereign power.

00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:05.719
 All nations and peoples of every language worshipped him.

00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.400
 His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away.

00:04:11.219 --> 00:04:14.699
 And his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.

00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:17.439
 What an amazing vision that was.

00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.959
 I don't know whether the man was thinking of this particular passage,

00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:26.620
 but probably at the least he thought that the Son of Man was the Messiah.

00:04:28.540 --> 00:04:31.459
 God's promised, chosen king.

00:04:31.779 --> 00:04:36.199
 The great one that many in Israel had been longing for to finally come.

00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:38.600
 So Jesus says to him,

00:04:38.699 --> 00:04:41.159
 Do you believe in the Son of Man?

00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:47.120
 And Jesus probably isn't asking him if he believes in the idea of the Son of Man.

00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:52.680
 This is not like the question that we often hear directed to children.

00:04:52.820 --> 00:04:54.920
 You know, do you believe in Santa Claus?

00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.560
 Or do you believe in the tooth fairy?

00:04:58.620 --> 00:05:00.180
 Jesus doesn't mean it like that.

00:05:00.740 --> 00:05:01.440
 He's not saying,

00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:03.660
 Do you believe that the Son of Man is real?

00:05:04.400 --> 00:05:05.500
 Of course he's real.

00:05:05.500 --> 00:05:08.899
 Jesus has already referred to himself many times as the Son of Man.

00:05:09.540 --> 00:05:11.899
 Probably what Jesus means is something more like,

00:05:12.139 --> 00:05:14.980
 Do you have faith in the Son of Man?

00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.540
 Do you trust the Son of Man?

00:05:18.540 --> 00:05:22.000
 And the man says in response,

00:05:22.620 --> 00:05:24.800
 Who is he, sir?

00:05:26.060 --> 00:05:28.220
 Tell me, so that I may believe in him.

00:05:29.939 --> 00:05:32.720
 So this man already believes that there is a Son of Man,

00:05:32.820 --> 00:05:34.740
 there is a special one, a Messiah,

00:05:35.259 --> 00:05:38.379
 and, judging by his answer, that he's already come.

00:05:41.100 --> 00:05:45.560
 He probably believes that the one who opened his eyes is that one,

00:05:46.080 --> 00:05:47.500
 the Son of Man, the Messiah.

00:05:48.540 --> 00:05:53.800
 No doubt he's probably learned a few things about Jesus secondhand

00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:57.860
 through his interrogation by the Pharisees.

00:05:58.420 --> 00:06:02.460
 But let's remember that in this man's last encounter with Jesus,

00:06:02.960 --> 00:06:04.180
 he was blind.

00:06:05.580 --> 00:06:06.420
 And so at this point,

00:06:06.540 --> 00:06:10.100
 he is probably not even certain about just who he's talking to.

00:06:11.500 --> 00:06:12.960
 And so he asked Jesus,

00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:15.400
 Well, who is the Son of Man?

00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.000
 Tell me, so that I may believe in him.

00:06:20.139 --> 00:06:21.120
 It's like he's saying,

00:06:21.699 --> 00:06:24.019
 Well, if you're talking to Jesus,

00:06:24.019 --> 00:06:25.099
 he doesn't know his name,

00:06:25.139 --> 00:06:27.579
 if you're talking about who I think you're talking about,

00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:30.019
 the one who opened my eyes,

00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:31.959
 I'm ready to put my faith in him.

00:06:32.039 --> 00:06:33.620
 I'm ready to put my trust in him.

00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:35.839
 I'm ready to become one of his followers.

00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:39.859
 You remember, that's what the Pharisees had said to this man.

00:06:39.860 --> 00:06:42.939
 They accused him of being one of this man's followers.

00:06:43.939 --> 00:06:46.080
 And probably he was thinking after that,

00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.040
 Well, yes, he opened my eyes.

00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:51.000
 I want to become one of his followers.

00:06:52.540 --> 00:06:53.699
 So who is he?

00:06:54.420 --> 00:06:55.500
 Do you know him?

00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:58.340
 Jesus says to him,

00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.840
 You have now seen him.

00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:06.099
 He is the one speaking with you.

00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:11.959
 Now, I don't know why Jesus refers to himself in the third person like this.

00:07:12.060 --> 00:07:14.060
 It's kind of climactic.

00:07:14.339 --> 00:07:15.000
 But he does.

00:07:15.219 --> 00:07:16.339
 And he's basically saying,

00:07:16.459 --> 00:07:17.579
 Where is you before?

00:07:17.719 --> 00:07:18.639
 You hadn't seen him.

00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:21.039
 Right now, you have.

00:07:22.579 --> 00:07:24.379
 He's the one speaking with you right now.

00:07:24.500 --> 00:07:26.179
 I am the Son of Man.

00:07:26.180 --> 00:07:30.840
 I am the one who opened your eyes.

00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:34.060
 Verse 38.

00:07:34.220 --> 00:07:35.160
 Then the man said,

00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.500
 Lord, I believe.

00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:40.980
 And he worshipped him.

00:07:42.939 --> 00:07:47.199
 I wish I could just hear what was going on in this man's thoughts in this moment.

00:07:47.980 --> 00:07:52.100
 Maybe he already suspected that this guy was the one who had opened his eyes.

00:07:52.939 --> 00:07:55.720
 Maybe he thought he recognized his voice a little bit.

00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:57.160
 But maybe wasn't certain.

00:07:57.960 --> 00:07:59.580
 But as soon as Jesus tells him,

00:07:59.700 --> 00:08:00.380
 I am the one.

00:08:01.300 --> 00:08:03.100
 I am the Son of Man.

00:08:03.220 --> 00:08:06.760
 This man knows that he is the Messiah.

00:08:08.420 --> 00:08:09.200
 He says,

00:08:09.400 --> 00:08:09.700
 Lord,

00:08:10.260 --> 00:08:12.140
 I believe.

00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:14.460
 And he hits the deck.

00:08:15.880 --> 00:08:18.140
 The word translated worshipped here

00:08:18.140 --> 00:08:19.880
 is literally,

00:08:20.280 --> 00:08:22.700
 he fell to the ground before him.

00:08:22.699 --> 00:08:26.639
 There's some debate over whether he was worshipping Jesus

00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:28.240
 as though Jesus was God,

00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:29.659
 divine,

00:08:30.019 --> 00:08:32.439
 or whether he fell down before him

00:08:32.439 --> 00:08:34.000
 bowing in deep reverence

00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:35.419
 as though Jesus is

00:08:35.419 --> 00:08:37.639
 that great king

00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:39.539
 of God's choosing,

00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:40.139
 the Messiah.

00:08:40.139 --> 00:08:42.960
 And it's kind of a tricky decision

00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:43.399
 because

00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:44.799
 whenever that word

00:08:44.799 --> 00:08:46.100
 translated worshipped here

00:08:46.100 --> 00:08:47.460
 is used with reference to God,

00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:48.419
 it means worshipped.

00:08:49.259 --> 00:08:51.299
 And whenever it's used of earthly men,

00:08:51.779 --> 00:08:54.419
 it means to bow reverently before them

00:08:54.419 --> 00:08:55.439
 or to pay homage

00:08:55.439 --> 00:08:56.500
 to them.

00:08:57.080 --> 00:08:58.139
 And in this case,

00:08:58.240 --> 00:08:59.580
 Jesus is both God

00:08:59.580 --> 00:09:00.480
 and man.

00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.860
 But the man who was blind

00:09:03.860 --> 00:09:05.860
 probably does not yet understand

00:09:05.860 --> 00:09:07.300
 the full extent

00:09:07.300 --> 00:09:08.420
 of who Jesus is,

00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:09.340
 that he is,

00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:10.680
 in fact,

00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:11.379
 God

00:09:11.379 --> 00:09:12.659
 here in front of him

00:09:12.659 --> 00:09:13.759
 in human flesh.

00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:20.019
 So he falls down

00:09:20.019 --> 00:09:21.180
 on the ground before him

00:09:21.180 --> 00:09:24.480
 and he confesses,

00:09:24.680 --> 00:09:25.240
 my Lord,

00:09:26.680 --> 00:09:28.259
 my King,

00:09:28.259 --> 00:09:31.240
 not just any king,

00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.319
 but God's king,

00:09:33.620 --> 00:09:34.860
 as he told the Pharisees.

00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:36.019
 I know that this man

00:09:36.019 --> 00:09:36.799
 came from God.

00:09:37.220 --> 00:09:38.279
 Look at what he did.

00:09:40.860 --> 00:09:41.860
 Verse 39,

00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:44.379
 Jesus said,

00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:46.480
 for judgment

00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:48.399
 I have come into this world

00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.919
 so that the blind will see

00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:53.399
 and those who see

00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:55.319
 will become blind.

00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:57.319
 Now,

00:09:57.320 --> 00:09:58.379
 I don't know about you,

00:09:58.460 --> 00:09:59.100
 but I have to admit

00:09:59.100 --> 00:09:59.960
 that this is not

00:09:59.960 --> 00:10:01.020
 what I expected Jesus

00:10:01.020 --> 00:10:01.900
 to say next.

00:10:03.540 --> 00:10:04.060
 I mean,

00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:05.080
 this is kind of a

00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:06.200
 joyful moment.

00:10:06.379 --> 00:10:06.980
 Here's Jesus

00:10:06.980 --> 00:10:07.740
 with this man

00:10:07.740 --> 00:10:08.480
 on the ground

00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:09.240
 before him.

00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:10.360
 This man has come

00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:11.620
 to realize the truth

00:10:11.620 --> 00:10:12.300
 and confess,

00:10:12.540 --> 00:10:12.840
 yes,

00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:14.580
 you are the Lord.

00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:15.660
 You are my Messiah.

00:10:18.160 --> 00:10:19.340
 And then Jesus says,

00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:20.080
 for judgment

00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:21.700
 I have come into this world

00:10:21.700 --> 00:10:24.320
 so that those

00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:26.340
 who are blind

00:10:26.340 --> 00:10:26.880
 will see.

00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:29.360
 and those who see

00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:30.760
 will become blind.

00:10:33.280 --> 00:10:34.660
 If we just take a part

00:10:34.660 --> 00:10:35.840
 of what Jesus says here,

00:10:35.920 --> 00:10:36.100
 I mean,

00:10:36.140 --> 00:10:37.140
 it kind of makes sense

00:10:37.140 --> 00:10:38.240
 and it's joyful.

00:10:38.780 --> 00:10:40.379
 I have come into this world

00:10:40.379 --> 00:10:41.240
 so that the blind

00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:41.860
 will see.

00:10:42.760 --> 00:10:43.820
 That's good news.

00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:45.780
 That's exactly

00:10:45.780 --> 00:10:46.800
 what Jesus did.

00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:49.140
 He gave this blind man

00:10:49.140 --> 00:10:49.920
 sight,

00:10:50.460 --> 00:10:51.460
 the ability to see.

00:10:51.460 --> 00:10:54.220
 But then we keep

00:10:54.220 --> 00:10:55.060
 listening to Jesus

00:10:55.060 --> 00:10:55.879
 and he says,

00:10:55.980 --> 00:10:56.860
 in the same breath,

00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:58.060
 I have also come

00:10:58.060 --> 00:10:58.900
 so that those

00:10:58.900 --> 00:10:59.639
 who see

00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:01.379
 will become blind.

00:11:03.139 --> 00:11:04.300
 What's going on here?

00:11:05.820 --> 00:11:06.860
 And for judgment

00:11:06.860 --> 00:11:08.160
 I have come into this world.

00:11:08.300 --> 00:11:09.980
 Why does Jesus say that?

00:11:11.980 --> 00:11:12.360
 Well,

00:11:12.400 --> 00:11:13.160
 as we'll see in a minute,

00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:14.120
 there were also

00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:15.600
 some Pharisees

00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:16.740
 standing nearby

00:11:16.740 --> 00:11:18.420
 watching all of this.

00:11:18.419 --> 00:11:20.799
 and by now

00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:21.299
 it should be

00:11:21.299 --> 00:11:22.579
 hopefully clear

00:11:22.579 --> 00:11:23.079
 that Jesus

00:11:23.079 --> 00:11:23.860
 is no longer

00:11:23.860 --> 00:11:24.699
 talking simply

00:11:24.699 --> 00:11:26.479
 about physical sight

00:11:26.479 --> 00:11:28.240
 and physical blindness.

00:11:29.299 --> 00:11:30.319
 He has a point

00:11:30.319 --> 00:11:30.799
 to make

00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:32.219
 that's deeper

00:11:32.219 --> 00:11:32.779
 than that.

00:11:34.059 --> 00:11:35.000
 For judgment

00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:35.639
 I have come

00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:36.479
 into this world

00:11:36.479 --> 00:11:38.019
 so that the blind

00:11:38.019 --> 00:11:38.719
 will see

00:11:38.719 --> 00:11:41.199
 and those who see

00:11:41.199 --> 00:11:43.099
 will become blind.

00:11:43.100 --> 00:11:45.399
 That's what's just

00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:46.440
 happened in this moment

00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:47.240
 for the man.

00:11:49.139 --> 00:11:50.560
 It wasn't earlier,

00:11:50.820 --> 00:11:51.540
 I mean earlier

00:11:51.540 --> 00:11:52.360
 he was blind

00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:53.279
 and he came to see

00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:53.960
 physically

00:11:53.960 --> 00:11:55.399
 but what just happened

00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:56.180
 for him now

00:11:56.180 --> 00:11:57.300
 is that he was blind

00:11:57.300 --> 00:11:58.000
 spiritually

00:11:58.000 --> 00:11:59.740
 and came to see

00:11:59.740 --> 00:12:01.120
 the truth

00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:02.340
 about Jesus.

00:12:04.060 --> 00:12:05.000
 And we know

00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:05.840
 Jesus is speaking

00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:06.659
 figuratively.

00:12:08.420 --> 00:12:09.279
 Did Jesus

00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:10.440
 just come into the world

00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:11.019
 to give

00:12:11.019 --> 00:12:12.360
 physical sight?

00:12:13.100 --> 00:12:14.899
 to the physical blind?

00:12:15.460 --> 00:12:16.320
 Physically blind?

00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:18.759
 Well if we've been

00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:19.580
 listening to Jesus

00:12:19.580 --> 00:12:20.540
 over the past months

00:12:20.540 --> 00:12:21.019
 we know that

00:12:21.019 --> 00:12:22.279
 that falls way short

00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:23.000
 of what Jesus

00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:24.040
 has been saying.

00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:25.080
 He has come

00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:26.000
 to give life

00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:27.759
 eternal life

00:12:27.759 --> 00:12:29.580
 so that people

00:12:29.580 --> 00:12:30.600
 would not perish

00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:31.580
 so that they would not

00:12:31.580 --> 00:12:32.300
 face

00:12:32.300 --> 00:12:33.340
 the just

00:12:33.340 --> 00:12:34.680
 wrath of God

00:12:34.680 --> 00:12:36.639
 and be condemned

00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:37.279
 but instead

00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:38.200
 have life.

00:12:41.220 --> 00:12:41.920
 Another way

00:12:41.920 --> 00:12:42.700
 to bring this out

00:12:42.700 --> 00:12:43.360
 is just simply

00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:43.820
 to ask

00:12:43.820 --> 00:12:44.660
 what's the greater

00:12:44.660 --> 00:12:45.560
 miracle here?

00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:47.960
 What's the greater

00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:49.200
 healing here?

00:12:50.420 --> 00:12:51.560
 Is it that the man

00:12:51.560 --> 00:12:53.220
 who is physically blind

00:12:53.220 --> 00:12:54.080
 can now see

00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:55.860
 with his physical eyes

00:12:55.860 --> 00:12:57.020
 and now in some sense

00:12:57.020 --> 00:12:57.900
 has a new life?

00:12:59.340 --> 00:13:00.480
 Or is it that the man

00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:00.940
 who was

00:13:00.940 --> 00:13:02.640
 spiritually lost

00:13:02.640 --> 00:13:03.240
 and walking

00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:04.020
 in darkness

00:13:04.020 --> 00:13:05.700
 has now come

00:13:05.700 --> 00:13:06.360
 to see

00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:07.400
 and believe

00:13:07.400 --> 00:13:08.140
 the truth

00:13:08.139 --> 00:13:10.019
 that gives him

00:13:10.019 --> 00:13:11.360
 eternal life?

00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:14.159
 We should celebrate

00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:14.919
 that this man

00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:15.740
 received one of the

00:13:15.740 --> 00:13:16.600
 greatest miracles

00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:17.419
 ever done.

00:13:19.860 --> 00:13:21.279
 Sight after having

00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:22.139
 lived his entire

00:13:22.139 --> 00:13:22.899
 life blind

00:13:22.899 --> 00:13:24.720
 but I hope

00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:26.100
 that our celebration

00:13:26.100 --> 00:13:26.879
 of that

00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:27.939
 pales

00:13:27.939 --> 00:13:28.980
 in comparison

00:13:28.980 --> 00:13:29.840
 to what just

00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:30.799
 happened to this man

00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:31.159
 now.

00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:33.399
 he has just

00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:34.100
 received something

00:13:34.100 --> 00:13:34.939
 far greater

00:13:34.939 --> 00:13:37.139
 something far

00:13:37.139 --> 00:13:37.559
 more

00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:38.719
 wonderful

00:13:38.719 --> 00:13:40.120
 the ability

00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:40.959
 to see

00:13:40.959 --> 00:13:42.279
 spiritually

00:13:42.279 --> 00:13:44.539
 and it's made

00:13:44.539 --> 00:13:45.179
 all the difference

00:13:45.179 --> 00:13:45.939
 in his life

00:13:45.939 --> 00:13:47.959
 and in his

00:13:47.959 --> 00:13:48.360
 eternity.

00:13:51.319 --> 00:13:52.279
 I wonder

00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:54.759
 do we have

00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:55.600
 more excitement

00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:57.720
 over someone

00:13:57.720 --> 00:13:59.019
 being miraculously

00:13:59.019 --> 00:13:59.519
 healed

00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:01.519
 than over

00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:01.939
 someone

00:14:01.939 --> 00:14:02.919
 coming to

00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:03.340
 repent

00:14:03.340 --> 00:14:04.600
 and believe

00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:05.139
 in Jesus

00:14:05.139 --> 00:14:06.100
 and be

00:14:06.100 --> 00:14:06.480
 saved?

00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:08.679
 Which is the

00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:09.360
 greater miracle?

00:14:10.579 --> 00:14:11.539
 Which part of

00:14:11.539 --> 00:14:12.000
 this story

00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:12.600
 should move

00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:12.919
 us

00:14:12.919 --> 00:14:14.100
 more deeply?

00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:16.039
 The part

00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:16.539
 where the man

00:14:16.539 --> 00:14:16.840
 says

00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:18.199
 I can see

00:14:18.199 --> 00:14:19.720
 at the

00:14:19.720 --> 00:14:20.059
 pool of

00:14:20.059 --> 00:14:20.519
 Siloam

00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:22.639
 or this

00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:23.439
 part here

00:14:23.439 --> 00:14:24.199
 where he

00:14:24.199 --> 00:14:24.480
 says

00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:24.899
 Lord

00:14:24.899 --> 00:14:26.079
 I believe

00:14:26.079 --> 00:14:27.620
 and hits

00:14:27.620 --> 00:14:28.159
 the ground

00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:29.240
 in front

00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:29.799
 of Jesus.

00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:32.079
 Jesus

00:14:32.079 --> 00:14:32.740
 came not

00:14:32.740 --> 00:14:33.480
 simply to

00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:34.360
 alleviate

00:14:34.360 --> 00:14:34.980
 physical

00:14:34.980 --> 00:14:35.519
 suffering

00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:36.319
 and cure

00:14:36.319 --> 00:14:36.819
 bodily

00:14:36.819 --> 00:14:37.419
 ailments

00:14:37.419 --> 00:14:38.959
 he came

00:14:38.959 --> 00:14:39.579
 primarily

00:14:39.579 --> 00:14:40.279
 to open

00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:40.819
 the eyes

00:14:40.819 --> 00:14:41.419
 of people

00:14:41.419 --> 00:14:42.639
 who are

00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:43.319
 spiritually

00:14:43.319 --> 00:14:43.919
 blind

00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:45.620
 and

00:14:45.620 --> 00:14:46.279
 spiritually

00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:47.240
 lost

00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:47.959
 in darkness.

00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:49.879
 Jesus

00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:50.319
 came to

00:14:50.319 --> 00:14:50.779
 make this

00:14:50.779 --> 00:14:51.100
 moment

00:14:51.100 --> 00:14:51.419
 that's

00:14:51.419 --> 00:14:51.699
 just

00:14:51.699 --> 00:14:52.059
 happened

00:14:52.059 --> 00:14:52.480
 for this

00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:52.779
 man

00:14:52.779 --> 00:14:53.079
 as he

00:14:53.079 --> 00:14:53.360
 says

00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:53.659
 Lord

00:14:53.659 --> 00:14:54.159
 I believe

00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:54.720
 he came

00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:54.980
 to make

00:14:54.980 --> 00:14:55.539
 that same

00:14:55.539 --> 00:14:55.980
 moment

00:14:55.980 --> 00:14:56.679
 happen

00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:57.459
 not just

00:14:57.459 --> 00:14:57.939
 for him

00:14:57.939 --> 00:14:58.339
 but for

00:14:58.339 --> 00:14:58.759
 many

00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:01.759
 for you

00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:04.139
 for me

00:15:04.139 --> 00:15:07.139
 and for

00:15:07.139 --> 00:15:07.579
 some in

00:15:07.579 --> 00:15:08.139
 our community

00:15:08.139 --> 00:15:08.620
 here in

00:15:08.620 --> 00:15:09.000
 Davidson

00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:10.239
 who right

00:15:10.239 --> 00:15:10.719
 now are

00:15:10.719 --> 00:15:11.399
 walking in

00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:11.799
 spiritual

00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:12.379
 darkness

00:15:12.379 --> 00:15:17.739
 is that

00:15:17.739 --> 00:15:18.199
 the miracle

00:15:18.199 --> 00:15:18.679
 that you're

00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:19.279
 asking God

00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:19.620
 for

00:15:19.620 --> 00:15:20.919
 these days

00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:25.179
 let's

00:15:25.179 --> 00:15:25.479
 consider

00:15:25.479 --> 00:15:25.879
 now the

00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:26.379
 other half

00:15:26.379 --> 00:15:26.779
 of Jesus

00:15:26.779 --> 00:15:27.299
 statement

00:15:27.299 --> 00:15:29.479
 verse 39

00:15:29.479 --> 00:15:30.259
 for judgment

00:15:30.259 --> 00:15:30.799
 I have

00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:31.259
 come into

00:15:31.259 --> 00:15:31.979
 this world

00:15:31.979 --> 00:15:33.319
 so that

00:15:33.319 --> 00:15:33.799
 the blind

00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:34.399
 will see

00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:35.939
 and

00:15:35.939 --> 00:15:37.079
 those who

00:15:37.079 --> 00:15:37.559
 see

00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:38.539
 will become

00:15:38.539 --> 00:15:39.059
 blind

00:15:39.059 --> 00:15:41.659
 it's difficult

00:15:41.659 --> 00:15:42.039
 to know

00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:42.459
 just what

00:15:42.459 --> 00:15:43.199
 Jesus means

00:15:43.199 --> 00:15:43.599
 here when

00:15:43.599 --> 00:15:44.019
 he says

00:15:44.019 --> 00:15:44.919
 for judgment

00:15:44.919 --> 00:15:46.179
 he doesn't

00:15:46.179 --> 00:15:46.899
 mean punishment

00:15:46.899 --> 00:15:47.379
 because that

00:15:47.379 --> 00:15:47.860
 doesn't make

00:15:47.860 --> 00:15:48.339
 sense

00:15:48.339 --> 00:15:49.679
 for punishment

00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:50.099
 I have

00:15:50.099 --> 00:15:50.439
 come into

00:15:50.439 --> 00:15:50.919
 this world

00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:51.259
 so that

00:15:51.259 --> 00:15:51.659
 the blind

00:15:51.659 --> 00:15:52.099
 will see

00:15:52.099 --> 00:15:53.379
 well that

00:15:53.379 --> 00:15:53.759
 doesn't make

00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:54.199
 sense

00:15:54.199 --> 00:15:56.219
 and he's

00:15:56.219 --> 00:15:56.699
 not talking

00:15:56.699 --> 00:15:57.159
 about the

00:15:57.159 --> 00:15:57.899
 final judgment

00:15:57.899 --> 00:15:58.439
 I mean we

00:15:58.439 --> 00:15:58.879
 know from

00:15:58.879 --> 00:15:59.219
 the rest

00:15:59.219 --> 00:15:59.759
 of the story

00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:00.099
 we know

00:16:00.099 --> 00:16:00.479
 from other

00:16:00.479 --> 00:16:00.919
 passages

00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:01.519
 this isn't

00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:01.899
 the final

00:16:01.899 --> 00:16:02.359
 judgment

00:16:02.359 --> 00:16:03.839
 that's coming

00:16:03.839 --> 00:16:06.319
 so what

00:16:06.319 --> 00:16:06.559
 does he

00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:06.899
 mean

00:16:06.899 --> 00:16:08.159
 well my

00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:08.819
 best guess

00:16:08.819 --> 00:16:10.139
 if I had to

00:16:10.139 --> 00:16:10.679
 take a guess

00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:11.099
 at it I

00:16:11.099 --> 00:16:11.439
 would say

00:16:11.439 --> 00:16:11.939
 that a part

00:16:11.939 --> 00:16:12.500
 of judgment

00:16:12.500 --> 00:16:13.179
 involves

00:16:13.179 --> 00:16:14.259
 separating

00:16:14.259 --> 00:16:17.179
 separating

00:16:17.179 --> 00:16:18.159
 truth

00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:19.600
 from lies

00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:21.480
 separating

00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:22.279
 the sheep

00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:22.899
 from the

00:16:22.899 --> 00:16:23.299
 goats

00:16:23.299 --> 00:16:24.720
 those who

00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:25.279
 are true

00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:26.480
 from the

00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:27.100
 imposters

00:16:27.100 --> 00:16:29.019
 we make

00:16:29.019 --> 00:16:29.580
 judgments

00:16:29.580 --> 00:16:30.419
 about things

00:16:30.419 --> 00:16:30.980
 all the time

00:16:30.980 --> 00:16:31.419
 and when we

00:16:31.419 --> 00:16:31.819
 do it

00:16:31.819 --> 00:16:32.220
 involves

00:16:32.220 --> 00:16:32.960
 separation

00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:33.819
 we approve

00:16:33.819 --> 00:16:34.519
 this news

00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:35.340
 article as

00:16:35.340 --> 00:16:36.000
 representing

00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:37.240
 the truth

00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:39.159
 and not

00:16:39.159 --> 00:16:39.679
 this one

00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:40.679
 separation

00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.679
 and here

00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:43.080
 we see a

00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:43.539
 similar kind

00:16:43.539 --> 00:16:43.860
 of thing

00:16:43.860 --> 00:16:44.200
 there's an

00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:44.700
 element of

00:16:44.700 --> 00:16:45.680
 separation

00:16:45.680 --> 00:16:47.060
 everyone is

00:16:47.060 --> 00:16:47.779
 being exposed

00:16:47.779 --> 00:16:48.399
 to Jesus

00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:49.840
 to his

00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:50.320
 teaching

00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:51.200
 to his

00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:51.740
 miracles

00:16:51.740 --> 00:16:54.460
 and yet

00:16:54.460 --> 00:16:55.060
 by God's

00:16:55.060 --> 00:16:55.300
 sovereign

00:16:55.300 --> 00:16:55.820
 purpose

00:16:55.820 --> 00:16:56.460
 and plan

00:16:56.460 --> 00:16:56.899
 this

00:16:56.899 --> 00:16:57.779
 exposure

00:16:57.779 --> 00:16:58.519
 is having

00:16:58.519 --> 00:16:59.200
 a different

00:16:59.200 --> 00:16:59.800
 result

00:16:59.800 --> 00:17:01.960
 for different

00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:02.379
 people

00:17:02.379 --> 00:17:03.680
 it's the

00:17:03.680 --> 00:17:04.299
 separating

00:17:04.299 --> 00:17:04.799
 or the

00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:05.220
 dividing

00:17:05.220 --> 00:17:05.839
 of people

00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:08.299
 and as

00:17:08.299 --> 00:17:08.579
 Jesus

00:17:08.579 --> 00:17:09.059
 ministry

00:17:09.059 --> 00:17:09.660
 does this

00:17:09.660 --> 00:17:10.079
 some

00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:10.579
 like this

00:17:10.579 --> 00:17:10.900
 man

00:17:10.900 --> 00:17:11.279
 who are

00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:11.880
 spiritually

00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:12.420
 blind

00:17:12.420 --> 00:17:13.220
 are coming

00:17:13.220 --> 00:17:13.799
 to see

00:17:13.799 --> 00:17:14.359
 and believe

00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:14.799
 and know

00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:15.379
 the truth

00:17:15.379 --> 00:17:17.799
 but others

00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:18.220
 are having

00:17:18.220 --> 00:17:18.639
 a different

00:17:18.639 --> 00:17:19.180
 result

00:17:19.180 --> 00:17:21.139
 others

00:17:21.139 --> 00:17:21.539
 who are

00:17:21.539 --> 00:17:22.139
 seeing

00:17:22.139 --> 00:17:22.799
 all that

00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:23.119
 Jesus

00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:23.879
 is doing

00:17:23.879 --> 00:17:25.559
 hearing

00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:25.960
 all that

00:17:25.960 --> 00:17:26.419
 he's saying

00:17:26.419 --> 00:17:26.980
 are becoming

00:17:26.980 --> 00:17:27.680
 spiritually

00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:28.180
 blind

00:17:28.180 --> 00:17:30.099
 they're becoming

00:17:30.099 --> 00:17:30.960
 more lost

00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:32.639
 more guilty

00:17:32.639 --> 00:17:33.159
 of sin

00:17:33.159 --> 00:17:33.940
 because they're

00:17:33.940 --> 00:17:34.500
 choosing to

00:17:34.500 --> 00:17:34.960
 reject

00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:35.919
 and turn

00:17:35.919 --> 00:17:36.339
 away

00:17:36.339 --> 00:17:37.119
 from the

00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:37.480
 light

00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:38.279
 of Jesus

00:17:38.279 --> 00:17:40.379
 I think

00:17:40.379 --> 00:17:40.799
 what Jesus

00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:41.299
 says here

00:17:41.299 --> 00:17:41.599
 is very

00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:41.960
 similar

00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:42.279
 to what

00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:42.579
 he said

00:17:42.579 --> 00:17:42.859
 to his

00:17:42.859 --> 00:17:43.359
 disciples

00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:44.799
 when he

00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:45.440
 explained

00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:46.019
 why he

00:17:46.019 --> 00:17:46.559
 spoke to

00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:47.319
 the crowds

00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:47.920
 in parables

00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:48.379
 maybe you

00:17:48.379 --> 00:17:48.740
 remember

00:17:48.740 --> 00:17:49.099
 that

00:17:49.099 --> 00:17:50.460
 what Jesus

00:17:50.460 --> 00:17:50.899
 said

00:17:50.899 --> 00:17:51.579
 Matthew

00:17:51.579 --> 00:17:52.160
 chapter

00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:52.879
 13

00:17:52.879 --> 00:17:54.460
 this is

00:17:54.460 --> 00:17:54.700
 in the

00:17:54.700 --> 00:17:55.019
 midst of

00:17:55.019 --> 00:17:55.460
 the parable

00:17:55.460 --> 00:17:55.799
 of the

00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:56.059
 sower

00:17:56.059 --> 00:17:57.519
 they asked

00:17:57.519 --> 00:17:57.879
 him about

00:17:57.879 --> 00:17:58.359
 why he

00:17:58.359 --> 00:17:58.680
 speaks

00:17:58.680 --> 00:17:59.220
 in parables

00:17:59.220 --> 00:17:59.519
 and he

00:17:59.519 --> 00:17:59.720
 said

00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:00.079
 this is

00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:00.460
 why I

00:18:00.460 --> 00:18:00.700
 speak

00:18:00.700 --> 00:18:01.000
 to them

00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:01.639
 in parables

00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:03.520
 though

00:18:03.520 --> 00:18:04.000
 seeing

00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:04.480
 they do

00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:04.720
 not

00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:04.960
 see

00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:05.240
 he's

00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:05.480
 quoting

00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:05.900
 Isaiah

00:18:05.900 --> 00:18:06.300
 here

00:18:06.300 --> 00:18:07.200
 though

00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:07.620
 hearing

00:18:07.620 --> 00:18:08.060
 they do

00:18:08.060 --> 00:18:08.340
 not

00:18:08.340 --> 00:18:08.640
 hear

00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:08.860
 or

00:18:08.860 --> 00:18:09.480
 understand

00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:11.540
 in them

00:18:11.540 --> 00:18:12.080
 is fulfilled

00:18:12.080 --> 00:18:12.720
 the prophecy

00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:13.400
 of Isaiah

00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:14.860
 you will

00:18:14.860 --> 00:18:15.340
 be ever

00:18:15.340 --> 00:18:15.820
 hearing

00:18:15.820 --> 00:18:16.920
 but never

00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:17.660
 understanding

00:18:17.660 --> 00:18:18.900
 you will

00:18:18.900 --> 00:18:19.259
 be ever

00:18:19.259 --> 00:18:19.800
 seeing

00:18:19.800 --> 00:18:21.340
 but never

00:18:21.340 --> 00:18:22.140
 perceiving

00:18:22.140 --> 00:18:23.980
 and we

00:18:23.980 --> 00:18:24.400
 might wonder

00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:24.800
 well how

00:18:24.800 --> 00:18:25.140
 can you

00:18:25.140 --> 00:18:25.560
 be ever

00:18:25.560 --> 00:18:25.980
 seeing

00:18:25.980 --> 00:18:26.600
 and never

00:18:26.600 --> 00:18:27.620
 seeing

00:18:27.620 --> 00:18:27.940
 never

00:18:27.940 --> 00:18:28.380
 getting

00:18:28.380 --> 00:18:28.580
 it

00:18:28.580 --> 00:18:28.940
 how can

00:18:28.940 --> 00:18:29.340
 you be

00:18:29.340 --> 00:18:30.320
 continuously

00:18:30.320 --> 00:18:30.980
 hearing

00:18:30.980 --> 00:18:32.059
 what Jesus

00:18:32.059 --> 00:18:32.599
 is saying

00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:33.120
 and not

00:18:33.120 --> 00:18:34.000
 understanding

00:18:34.000 --> 00:18:34.339
 it

00:18:34.339 --> 00:18:35.579
 how is

00:18:35.579 --> 00:18:35.740
 that

00:18:35.740 --> 00:18:36.240
 possible

00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:37.920
 Jesus

00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:38.420
 tells us

00:18:38.420 --> 00:18:38.860
 the answer

00:18:38.860 --> 00:18:39.559
 still quoting

00:18:39.559 --> 00:18:39.980
 Isaiah

00:18:39.980 --> 00:18:40.480
 in the next

00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:40.860
 verse

00:18:40.860 --> 00:18:42.059
 he says

00:18:42.059 --> 00:18:42.559
 for this

00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:43.140
 people's

00:18:43.140 --> 00:18:43.460
 heart

00:18:43.460 --> 00:18:44.120
 has become

00:18:44.120 --> 00:18:44.779
 calloused

00:18:44.779 --> 00:18:46.680
 they hardly

00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:47.400
 hear with

00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:48.019
 their ears

00:18:48.019 --> 00:18:49.360
 and they

00:18:49.360 --> 00:18:50.360
 have closed

00:18:50.360 --> 00:18:51.680
 their eyes

00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:52.539
 there it

00:18:52.539 --> 00:18:52.880
 is

00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:54.539
 they have

00:18:54.539 --> 00:18:55.099
 closed

00:18:55.099 --> 00:18:55.819
 their eyes

00:18:55.819 --> 00:18:56.299
 there is

00:18:56.299 --> 00:18:56.799
 a voluntary

00:18:56.799 --> 00:18:57.539
 decision

00:18:57.539 --> 00:18:58.480
 made on

00:18:58.480 --> 00:18:58.839
 the part

00:18:58.839 --> 00:18:59.079
 of the

00:18:59.079 --> 00:18:59.339
 people

00:18:59.339 --> 00:18:59.839
 that are

00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:00.400
 seeing

00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:01.360
 to close

00:19:01.360 --> 00:19:01.519
 their

00:19:01.519 --> 00:19:01.860
 eyes

00:19:01.860 --> 00:19:04.820
 Jesus

00:19:04.820 --> 00:19:05.500
 still

00:19:05.500 --> 00:19:05.860
 quoting

00:19:05.860 --> 00:19:06.200
 Isaiah

00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:06.519
 says

00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:06.980
 otherwise

00:19:06.980 --> 00:19:07.480
 they

00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:07.860
 might

00:19:07.860 --> 00:19:08.220
 see

00:19:08.220 --> 00:19:08.480
 with

00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:08.680
 their

00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:09.080
 eyes

00:19:09.080 --> 00:19:09.280
 and

00:19:09.280 --> 00:19:09.800
 hear

00:19:09.800 --> 00:19:10.040
 with

00:19:10.040 --> 00:19:10.200
 their

00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:10.600
 ears

00:19:10.600 --> 00:19:11.200
 and

00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:11.600
 understand

00:19:11.600 --> 00:19:11.960
 with

00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:12.120
 their

00:19:12.120 --> 00:19:12.380
 hearts

00:19:12.380 --> 00:19:12.580
 and

00:19:12.580 --> 00:19:13.360
 turn

00:19:13.360 --> 00:19:13.820
 and I

00:19:13.820 --> 00:19:14.220
 would

00:19:14.220 --> 00:19:14.580
 heal

00:19:14.580 --> 00:19:14.960
 them

00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:19.600
 Jesus

00:19:19.600 --> 00:19:19.980
 had a

00:19:19.980 --> 00:19:20.280
 distinct

00:19:20.280 --> 00:19:20.700
 purpose

00:19:20.700 --> 00:19:21.220
 in using

00:19:21.220 --> 00:19:21.740
 parables

00:19:21.740 --> 00:19:24.300
 in fact

00:19:24.300 --> 00:19:24.860
 I think

00:19:24.860 --> 00:19:25.160
 what he's

00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:25.600
 telling us

00:19:25.600 --> 00:19:25.940
 here is

00:19:25.940 --> 00:19:26.259
 that his

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:26.519
 whole

00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:26.980
 ministry

00:19:26.980 --> 00:19:27.440
 has a

00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:27.780
 distinct

00:19:27.779 --> 00:19:28.339
 purpose

00:19:28.339 --> 00:19:32.639
 these

00:19:32.639 --> 00:19:33.339
 Pharisees

00:19:33.339 --> 00:19:33.920
 have just

00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:34.619
 seen

00:19:34.619 --> 00:19:35.099
 what

00:19:35.099 --> 00:19:35.539
 Jesus

00:19:35.539 --> 00:19:36.099
 did

00:19:36.099 --> 00:19:37.420
 in

00:19:37.420 --> 00:19:37.660
 healing

00:19:37.660 --> 00:19:37.879
 this

00:19:37.879 --> 00:19:38.160
 blind

00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:38.440
 man

00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:38.700
 and they

00:19:38.700 --> 00:19:39.000
 can't

00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:39.259
 deny

00:19:39.259 --> 00:19:39.539
 it

00:19:39.539 --> 00:19:40.859
 they

00:19:40.859 --> 00:19:41.099
 brought

00:19:41.099 --> 00:19:41.279
 his

00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:41.639
 parents

00:19:41.639 --> 00:19:41.859
 in

00:19:41.859 --> 00:19:42.299
 yes

00:19:42.299 --> 00:19:42.639
 he

00:19:42.639 --> 00:19:42.859
 is

00:19:42.859 --> 00:19:43.019
 our

00:19:43.019 --> 00:19:43.279
 son

00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:43.680
 yes

00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:43.839
 he

00:19:43.839 --> 00:19:44.000
 was

00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:44.240
 born

00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:44.639
 blind

00:19:44.639 --> 00:19:45.160
 how

00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:45.339
 does

00:19:45.339 --> 00:19:45.460
 he

00:19:45.460 --> 00:19:45.639
 see

00:19:45.639 --> 00:19:46.799
 we

00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:46.980
 don't

00:19:46.980 --> 00:19:47.319
 know

00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:48.660
 Jesus

00:19:48.660 --> 00:19:49.000
 did

00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:49.240
 it

00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:50.519
 is

00:19:50.519 --> 00:19:50.660
 what

00:19:50.660 --> 00:19:50.779
 the

00:19:50.779 --> 00:19:50.980
 man

00:19:50.980 --> 00:19:51.399
 said

00:19:51.399 --> 00:19:52.200
 and yet

00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:52.460
 even

00:19:52.460 --> 00:19:52.660
 with

00:19:52.660 --> 00:19:52.899
 this

00:19:52.899 --> 00:19:53.359
 sign

00:19:53.359 --> 00:19:53.960
 clearly

00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:54.220
 in

00:19:54.220 --> 00:19:54.399
 front

00:19:54.399 --> 00:19:54.519
 of

00:19:54.519 --> 00:19:54.660
 them

00:19:54.660 --> 00:19:54.800
 they

00:19:54.800 --> 00:19:54.940
 are

00:19:54.940 --> 00:19:55.340
 seeing

00:19:55.340 --> 00:19:55.600
 it

00:19:55.600 --> 00:19:57.580
 they're

00:19:57.580 --> 00:19:57.840
 choosing

00:19:57.840 --> 00:19:58.040
 to

00:19:58.040 --> 00:19:58.259
 close

00:19:58.259 --> 00:19:58.460
 their

00:19:58.460 --> 00:19:58.800
 eyes

00:19:58.800 --> 00:20:01.000
 I'm

00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:01.160
 not

00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:01.340
 going

00:20:01.340 --> 00:20:01.460
 to

00:20:01.460 --> 00:20:01.820
 accept

00:20:01.820 --> 00:20:02.580
 the

00:20:02.580 --> 00:20:02.900
 truth

00:20:02.900 --> 00:20:03.140
 that

00:20:03.140 --> 00:20:03.380
 this

00:20:03.380 --> 00:20:03.759
 points

00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:04.040
 to

00:20:04.040 --> 00:20:05.480
 the

00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:05.880
 seeing

00:20:05.880 --> 00:20:06.700
 are

00:20:06.700 --> 00:20:07.100
 becoming

00:20:07.100 --> 00:20:07.560
 blind

00:20:07.560 --> 00:20:08.680
 this

00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:08.800
 is

00:20:08.800 --> 00:20:09.000
 what's

00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:09.360
 happening

00:20:09.360 --> 00:20:09.600
 with

00:20:09.600 --> 00:20:09.759
 the

00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:10.200
 Pharisees

00:20:10.200 --> 00:20:10.440
 right

00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:10.720
 now

00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:12.400
 I'm

00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:12.700
 reminded

00:20:12.700 --> 00:20:13.019
 of one

00:20:13.019 --> 00:20:13.140
 of

 Jesus

00:20:13.380 --> 00:20:13.820
 favorite

00:20:13.820 --> 00:20:14.279
 passages

00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:14.540
 to

00:20:14.540 --> 00:20:14.759
 bring

00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:14.960
 up

00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:15.100
 in

00:20:15.100 --> 00:20:15.540
 discussion

00:20:15.540 --> 00:20:15.800
 with

00:20:15.800 --> 00:20:15.960
 the

00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:16.440
 Pharisees

00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:16.600
 you

00:20:16.600 --> 00:20:17.019
 probably

00:20:17.019 --> 00:20:18.880
 know

00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:19.140
 this

00:20:19.140 --> 00:20:19.440
 one

 first

00:20:19.800 --> 00:20:20.220
 Peter

00:20:20.220 --> 00:20:20.660
 it's

00:20:20.660 --> 00:20:21.060
 mentioned

00:20:21.060 --> 00:20:21.480
 there

00:20:21.480 --> 00:20:23.540
 the

00:20:24.460 --> 00:20:25.039
 rejected

00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:26.400
 has

00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:26.720
 become

00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:26.920
 the

00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:27.220
 corner

00:20:27.220 --> 00:20:27.660
 stone

00:20:27.660 --> 00:20:28.460

00:20:28.460 --> 00:20:28.980
 Jesus

00:20:28.980 --> 00:20:30.880
 it's

00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:31.120
 also

00:20:31.120 --> 00:20:31.340
 a

00:20:31.340 --> 00:20:31.539
 stone

00:20:31.539 --> 00:20:31.720

00:20:34.360 --> 00:20:36.240
 some

00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:36.539
 trip

00:20:36.539 --> 00:20:36.819
 over

00:20:36.819 --> 00:20:37.039
 it

00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:37.220
 they

00:20:37.220 --> 00:20:37.759
 refuse

00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:38.000
 to

00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:38.440
 acknowledge

00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:38.900
 Jesus

00:20:38.900 --> 00:20:39.240
 as

00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:39.440
 the

00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:39.860
 Messiah

00:20:39.860 --> 00:20:41.200
 they

00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:41.620
 reject

00:20:41.620 --> 00:20:41.940
 him

00:20:41.940 --> 00:20:43.019
 but

00:20:43.019 --> 00:20:43.200
 the

00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:43.500
 very

00:20:43.500 --> 00:20:44.039
 same

00:20:44.039 --> 00:20:44.460
 Jesus

00:20:44.460 --> 00:20:44.860
 is

00:20:44.860 --> 00:20:45.380
 also

00:20:45.380 --> 00:20:46.039
 the

00:20:46.039 --> 00:20:46.460
 corner

00:20:46.460 --> 00:20:46.980
 stone

00:20:46.980 --> 00:20:49.200
 the

00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:49.440
 one

00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:49.600
 on

00:20:49.600 --> 00:20:49.740
 whom

00:20:49.740 --> 00:20:49.980
 God

00:20:49.980 --> 00:20:50.160
 has

00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:50.539
 chosen

00:20:50.539 --> 00:20:50.799
 to

00:20:50.799 --> 00:20:51.059
 build

00:20:51.059 --> 00:20:51.299
 his

00:20:51.299 --> 00:20:51.759
 house

00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:52.880
 his

00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:53.360
 people

00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:55.000
 and

00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:55.240
 again

00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:55.399
 we

00:20:55.399 --> 00:20:55.559
 see

00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:55.759
 that

00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:56.119
 idea

00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:56.419
 of

00:20:56.419 --> 00:20:57.399
 separation

00:20:57.399 --> 00:20:58.839
 people

00:20:58.839 --> 00:20:59.159
 having

00:20:59.159 --> 00:20:59.359
 an

00:20:59.359 --> 00:20:59.779
 opposite

00:20:59.779 --> 00:21:00.500
 reaction

00:21:00.500 --> 00:21:00.699
 and

00:21:00.699 --> 00:21:01.379
 response

00:21:01.379 --> 00:21:02.379
 to

00:21:02.379 --> 00:21:02.759
 Jesus

00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:03.799
 and

00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:04.000
 his

00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:04.459
 ministry

00:21:04.459 --> 00:21:07.579
 and

00:21:07.579 --> 00:21:07.759
 this

00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:08.059
 is all

00:21:08.059 --> 00:21:08.479
 happening

00:21:08.479 --> 00:21:08.679
 in

00:21:08.679 --> 00:21:09.019
 accordance

00:21:09.019 --> 00:21:09.339
 with

00:21:09.339 --> 00:21:09.539
 the

00:21:09.539 --> 00:21:09.959
 ultimate

00:21:09.959 --> 00:21:10.359
 plan

00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:10.539
 of

00:21:10.539 --> 00:21:10.899
 God

00:21:10.899 --> 00:21:13.259
 for

00:21:13.259 --> 00:21:13.859
 judgment

00:21:13.859 --> 00:21:14.159
 for

00:21:14.159 --> 00:21:14.359
 the

00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:14.779
 purpose

00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:15.039
 of

00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:15.500
 judgment

00:21:15.500 --> 00:21:15.759
 I

00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:15.899
 have

00:21:15.899 --> 00:21:16.099
 come

00:21:16.099 --> 00:21:16.299
 into

00:21:16.299 --> 00:21:16.539
 this

00:21:16.539 --> 00:21:17.059
 world

00:21:17.059 --> 00:21:18.219
 says

00:21:18.219 --> 00:21:18.779
 Jesus

00:21:18.779 --> 00:21:20.240
 so

00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:20.740
 that

00:21:20.740 --> 00:21:21.619
 in

00:21:21.619 --> 00:21:21.960
 order

00:21:21.960 --> 00:21:22.299
 that

00:21:22.299 --> 00:21:22.799
 these

00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:23.700
 outcomes

00:21:23.700 --> 00:21:23.980
 would

00:21:23.980 --> 00:21:24.500
 happen

00:21:24.500 --> 00:21:27.399
 now

00:21:27.399 --> 00:21:27.559
 it's

00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:27.759
 not

00:21:27.759 --> 00:21:28.119
 because

00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:28.420
 God

00:21:28.420 --> 00:21:28.899
 desires

00:21:28.899 --> 00:21:29.099
 in

00:21:29.099 --> 00:21:29.220
 his

00:21:29.220 --> 00:21:29.460
 heart

00:21:29.460 --> 00:21:29.680
 that

00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:29.899
 some

00:21:29.899 --> 00:21:30.059
 would

00:21:30.059 --> 00:21:30.220
 be

00:21:30.220 --> 00:21:30.680
 lost

00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:32.399
 that

00:21:32.399 --> 00:21:32.660
 some

00:21:32.660 --> 00:21:32.839
 would

00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:33.200
 become

00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:33.759
 blind

00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:35.859
 in

00:21:35.859 --> 00:21:36.000
 his

00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:36.259
 heart

00:21:36.259 --> 00:21:36.420
 of

00:21:36.420 --> 00:21:36.819
 hearts

00:21:36.819 --> 00:21:38.019
 God

00:21:38.019 --> 00:21:38.220
 does

00:21:38.220 --> 00:21:38.440
 not

00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:38.839
 desire

00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:39.139
 that

00:21:39.139 --> 00:21:39.299
 as

00:21:39.299 --> 00:21:39.460
 we

00:21:39.460 --> 00:21:39.660
 heard

00:21:39.660 --> 00:21:40.139
 back

00:21:40.139 --> 00:21:40.299
 in

00:21:40.299 --> 00:21:40.639
 Matthew

00:21:40.639 --> 00:21:41.720
 I

00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:42.039
 want

00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:42.200
 them

00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:42.399
 to

00:21:42.399 --> 00:21:42.700
 turn

00:21:42.700 --> 00:21:42.879
 and

00:21:42.879 --> 00:21:43.039
 I

00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:43.339
 would

00:21:43.339 --> 00:21:43.660
 heal

00:21:43.660 --> 00:21:43.980
 them

00:21:43.980 --> 00:21:44.379
 if

00:21:44.379 --> 00:21:44.579
 they

00:21:44.579 --> 00:21:44.960
 did

00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:47.059
 they

00:21:47.059 --> 00:21:47.559
 close

00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:47.819
 their

00:21:47.819 --> 00:21:48.279
 eyes

00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:51.079
 no

00:21:51.079 --> 00:21:51.399
 this

00:21:51.399 --> 00:21:51.759
 happens

00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:52.099
 according

00:21:52.099 --> 00:21:52.279
 to

00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:52.420
 the

00:21:52.420 --> 00:21:52.660
 plan

00:21:52.660 --> 00:21:52.839
 of

00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:53.099
 God

00:21:53.099 --> 00:21:53.460
 because

00:21:53.460 --> 00:21:53.759
 God

00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:54.319
 desires

00:21:54.319 --> 00:21:54.799
 that

00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:55.480
 people

00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:55.799
 should

00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:56.099
 be

00:21:56.099 --> 00:21:57.139
 separated

00:21:57.139 --> 00:21:57.579
 and

00:21:57.579 --> 00:21:58.160
 sifted

00:21:58.160 --> 00:21:58.440
 out

00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:59.480
 as

00:21:59.480 --> 00:21:59.619
 they

00:21:59.619 --> 00:21:59.879
 should

00:21:59.879 --> 00:22:00.180
 be

00:22:00.180 --> 00:22:02.500
 Jesus

00:22:02.500 --> 00:22:02.839
 is

00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:03.180
 like

00:22:03.180 --> 00:22:05.019
 the

00:22:05.019 --> 00:22:05.559
 sieve

00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:05.839
 of

00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:06.279
 God

00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:07.660
 that

00:22:07.660 --> 00:22:07.799
 has

00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:07.940
 been

00:22:07.940 --> 00:22:08.339
 sent

00:22:08.339 --> 00:22:08.720
 to

00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:10.460
 separate

00:22:11.639 --> 00:22:13.420
 the

00:22:13.420 --> 00:22:13.839
 people

00:22:13.839 --> 00:22:15.200
 he

00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:15.359
 is

00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:15.519
 the

 stone

00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:16.720
 put

 before

00:22:17.099 --> 00:22:17.339
 them

00:22:17.339 --> 00:22:17.539
 that

00:22:17.539 --> 00:22:17.700
 will

00:22:17.700 --> 00:22:18.180
 reveal

00:22:18.180 --> 00:22:19.240
 one

00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:19.519
 or

 the

 darkness

00:22:23.539 --> 00:22:24.920
 that

 they

00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:25.200
 will

 either

00:22:25.420 --> 00:22:25.720
 come

00:22:26.620 --> 00:22:26.799
 they

00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:27.019
 will

00:22:27.019 --> 00:22:27.580
 close

 turn

00:22:28.380 --> 00:22:28.620
 away

00:22:28.620 --> 00:22:28.799
 from

00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:29.600
 no

00:22:29.600 --> 00:22:29.820
 I

00:22:29.820 --> 00:22:29.960
 don't

00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:30.240
 want

00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:30.560
 that

00:22:30.560 --> 00:22:33.259
 in

00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:33.860
 I

00:22:33.860 --> 00:22:34.060
 think

00:22:34.060 --> 00:22:34.279
 what

00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:35.019
 Jesus

00:22:35.019 --> 00:22:35.259
 is

00:22:35.259 --> 00:22:35.519
 really

00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:36.019
 saying

00:22:36.019 --> 00:22:36.360
 here

00:22:36.360 --> 00:22:37.820
 is

00:22:37.820 --> 00:22:38.019
 that

00:22:38.019 --> 00:22:38.519
 at

00:22:38.519 --> 00:22:38.680
 the

00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:38.860
 end

00:22:38.860 --> 00:22:38.980
 of

00:22:38.980 --> 00:22:39.140
 the

 is

00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:43.019
 revealed

00:22:43.019 --> 00:22:43.259
 in

00:22:43.259 --> 00:22:43.680
 glory

00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:45.320
 how

 people

00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:46.380
 responded

00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:46.960
 Jesus

00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:47.220
 when

00:22:47.220 --> 00:22:47.400
 they

00:22:47.400 --> 00:22:47.740
 had

00:22:47.740 --> 00:22:47.940
 the

00:22:47.940 --> 00:22:48.640
 opportunity

00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:50.539
 that

00:22:50.539 --> 00:22:50.839
 will

00:22:50.839 --> 00:22:51.240
 be

00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:52.259
 the

00:22:52.259 --> 00:22:52.799
 basis

00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:54.440
 for

00:22:54.440 --> 00:22:54.980
 separating

00:22:54.980 --> 00:22:55.180
 them

00:22:55.180 --> 00:22:55.440
 out

00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:55.600
 in

00:22:55.600 --> 00:22:55.740
 the

00:22:55.740 --> 00:22:56.039
 final

00:22:56.039 --> 00:22:56.480
 judgment

00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:57.779
 the

00:22:57.779 --> 00:22:58.380
 separation

00:22:58.380 --> 00:22:58.680
 is

00:22:58.680 --> 00:22:59.100
 beginning

00:22:59.100 --> 00:22:59.519
 even

00:22:59.519 --> 00:22:59.880
 now

00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:00.079
 as

00:23:02.940 --> 00:23:05.440
 now

00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:05.559
 we

00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:05.740
 might

00:23:05.740 --> 00:23:06.080
 wonder

00:23:06.080 --> 00:23:06.360
 why

00:23:06.360 --> 00:23:06.539
 does

00:23:06.539 --> 00:23:06.640
 it

00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:45.779
 40

00:24:45.779 --> 00:24:46.680
 some

00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:47.400
 Pharisees

00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:47.559
 who

00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:47.680
 were

00:24:47.680 --> 00:24:47.940
 with

00:24:47.940 --> 00:24:48.240
 him

00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:50.039
 heard

00:24:50.039 --> 00:24:50.259
 him

00:24:50.259 --> 00:24:50.500
 say

00:24:50.500 --> 00:24:50.940
 this

00:24:50.940 --> 00:24:51.720
 and

00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:52.019
 asked

00:24:52.019 --> 00:24:53.339
 what

00:24:53.339 --> 00:24:53.720
 are

00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:53.980
 we

00:24:53.980 --> 00:24:54.319
 blind

00:24:54.319 --> 00:24:54.740
 too

00:24:54.740 --> 00:24:57.039
 a

00:24:57.039 --> 00:24:57.480
 rhetorical

00:24:57.480 --> 00:24:58.000
 question

00:24:58.000 --> 00:24:58.519
 you

00:24:58.519 --> 00:24:58.640
 can

00:24:58.640 --> 00:24:58.819
 just

00:24:58.819 --> 00:24:59.000
 hear

00:24:59.000 --> 00:24:59.200
 the

00:24:59.200 --> 00:24:59.460
 tone

00:24:59.460 --> 00:24:59.599
 of

00:24:59.599 --> 00:25:00.059
 mockery

00:25:00.059 --> 00:25:00.259
 in

00:25:00.259 --> 00:25:00.420
 it

00:25:00.420 --> 00:25:01.359
 like

00:25:01.359 --> 00:25:02.319
 are

00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:02.579
 we

00:25:02.579 --> 00:25:02.920
 blind

00:25:02.920 --> 00:25:03.279
 too

00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:04.000
 no

00:25:04.000 --> 00:25:05.000
 I

00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:05.240
 don't

00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:05.480
 think

00:25:05.480 --> 00:25:05.839
 so

00:25:05.839 --> 00:25:08.700
 and

00:25:08.700 --> 00:25:08.960
 Jesus

00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:09.539
 responds

00:25:09.539 --> 00:25:09.819
 with

00:25:09.819 --> 00:25:10.160
 this

00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:10.400
 he

00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:10.799
 says

00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:11.960
 if

00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:12.180
 you

00:25:12.180 --> 00:25:12.440
 were

00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:12.920
 blind

00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:14.099
 you

00:25:14.099 --> 00:25:14.259
 would

00:25:14.259 --> 00:25:14.500
 not

00:25:14.500 --> 00:25:14.720
 be

00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:15.019
 guilty

00:25:15.019 --> 00:25:15.259
 of

00:25:15.259 --> 00:25:15.579
 sin

00:25:15.579 --> 00:25:17.319
 but

00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:17.619
 now

00:25:17.619 --> 00:25:17.859
 that

00:25:17.859 --> 00:25:18.019
 you

00:25:18.019 --> 00:25:18.359
 claim

00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:18.539
 you

00:25:18.539 --> 00:25:18.720
 can

00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:19.119
 see

00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:20.779
 your

00:25:20.779 --> 00:25:21.059
 guilt

00:25:21.059 --> 00:25:21.640
 remains

00:25:21.640 --> 00:25:23.859
 it's

00:25:23.859 --> 00:25:24.160
 a loaded

00:25:24.160 --> 00:25:24.720
 response

00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:25.279
 this is

00:25:25.279 --> 00:25:25.500
 one of

00:25:25.500 --> 00:25:25.720
 those

00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:26.119
 noodle

00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:26.559
 busters

00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:28.339
 you

00:25:28.339 --> 00:25:28.539
 kind

00:25:28.539 --> 00:25:28.599
 of

00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:28.720
 just

00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:28.859
 got

00:25:28.859 --> 00:25:29.000
 to

00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:29.240
 sit

00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:29.399
 and

00:25:29.399 --> 00:25:29.740
 think

00:25:29.740 --> 00:25:29.980
 over

00:25:29.980 --> 00:25:30.220
 this

00:25:30.220 --> 00:25:30.399
 and

00:25:30.399 --> 00:25:30.740
 meditate

00:25:30.740 --> 00:25:31.079
 on

00:25:31.079 --> 00:25:31.179
 it

00:25:31.179 --> 00:25:31.359
 for

00:25:31.359 --> 00:25:31.500
 a

00:25:31.500 --> 00:25:31.799
 while

00:25:31.799 --> 00:25:33.159
 in

00:25:33.159 --> 00:25:33.319
 the

00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:33.619
 same

00:25:33.619 --> 00:25:34.000
 breath

00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:34.399
 Jesus

00:25:34.399 --> 00:25:34.799
 says

00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:35.259
 no

00:25:35.259 --> 00:25:36.000
 you're

00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:36.220
 not

00:25:36.220 --> 00:25:36.619
 blind

00:25:36.619 --> 00:25:37.839
 and

00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:38.019
 so

00:25:38.019 --> 00:25:38.220
 you

00:25:38.220 --> 00:25:38.440
 are

00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:38.779
 guilty

00:25:38.779 --> 00:25:39.019
 of

00:25:39.019 --> 00:25:39.299
 sin

00:25:39.299 --> 00:25:41.339
 and

00:25:41.339 --> 00:25:41.539
 he

00:25:41.539 --> 00:25:41.819
 says

00:25:41.819 --> 00:25:42.299
 yes

00:25:42.299 --> 00:25:43.000
 you

00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:43.279
 are

00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:43.740
 blind

00:25:43.740 --> 00:25:45.220
 and

00:25:45.220 --> 00:25:45.460
 so

00:25:45.460 --> 00:25:45.679
 you

00:25:45.679 --> 00:25:45.960
 are

00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:46.480
 guilty

00:25:46.480 --> 00:25:46.740
 of

00:25:46.740 --> 00:25:47.019
 sin

00:25:47.019 --> 00:25:47.759
 I

00:25:47.759 --> 00:25:47.940
 know

00:25:47.940 --> 00:25:48.139
 that

00:25:48.139 --> 00:25:48.359
 sounds

00:25:48.359 --> 00:25:48.519
 like

00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:48.659
 a

00:25:48.659 --> 00:25:49.159
 contradiction

00:25:49.159 --> 00:25:50.379
 but

00:25:50.379 --> 00:25:50.619
 it's

00:25:50.619 --> 00:25:50.940
 there

00:25:50.940 --> 00:25:52.620
 Jesus

00:25:52.620 --> 00:25:52.860
 is

00:25:52.860 --> 00:25:53.140
 speaking

00:25:53.140 --> 00:25:53.320
 at

00:25:53.320 --> 00:25:53.480
 a

00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:53.720
 different

00:25:53.720 --> 00:25:54.080
 level

00:25:54.080 --> 00:25:54.539
 probably

00:25:54.539 --> 00:25:55.380
 in

00:25:55.380 --> 00:25:56.360
 riddle

00:25:56.360 --> 00:25:56.559
 or

00:25:56.559 --> 00:25:57.039
 kind

00:25:57.039 --> 00:25:57.120
 of

00:25:57.120 --> 00:25:57.240
 like

00:25:57.240 --> 00:25:57.400
 a

00:25:57.400 --> 00:25:57.620
 mini

00:25:57.620 --> 00:25:58.080
 parable

00:25:58.080 --> 00:25:58.440
 here

00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:59.539
 let's

00:25:59.539 --> 00:25:59.880
 unpack

00:25:59.880 --> 00:26:00.059
 it

00:26:00.059 --> 00:26:00.480
 briefly

00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:02.940
 if

00:26:02.940 --> 00:26:03.200
 you

00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:03.500
 were

00:26:03.500 --> 00:26:03.960
 blind

00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:04.279
 in the

00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:04.580
 original

00:26:04.580 --> 00:26:05.039
 language

00:26:05.039 --> 00:26:05.380
 based

00:26:05.380 --> 00:26:05.559
 on

00:26:05.559 --> 00:26:05.720
 the

00:26:05.720 --> 00:26:06.140
 grammar

00:26:06.140 --> 00:26:06.480
 here

00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:06.840
 we

00:26:06.840 --> 00:26:07.039
 can

00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:07.279
 know

00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:07.480
 the

00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:07.700
 way

00:26:07.700 --> 00:26:07.920
 that

00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:08.180
 this

00:26:08.180 --> 00:26:08.480
 if

00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:08.740
 then

00:26:08.740 --> 00:26:09.140
 statement

00:26:09.140 --> 00:26:09.600
 works

00:26:09.600 --> 00:26:09.779
 we

00:26:09.779 --> 00:26:09.980
 know

00:26:09.980 --> 00:26:10.180
 that

00:26:10.180 --> 00:26:10.380
 it's

00:26:10.380 --> 00:26:11.000
 if

00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:11.259
 you

00:26:11.259 --> 00:26:11.500
 were

00:26:11.500 --> 00:26:11.980
 blind

00:26:11.980 --> 00:26:13.080
 and

00:26:13.080 --> 00:26:13.220
 you're

00:26:13.220 --> 00:26:13.620
 not

00:26:13.620 --> 00:26:14.720
 you

00:26:14.720 --> 00:26:14.900
 would

00:26:14.900 --> 00:26:15.160
 not

00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:15.380
 be

00:26:15.380 --> 00:26:15.660
 guilty

00:26:15.660 --> 00:26:15.900
 of

00:26:15.900 --> 00:26:16.220
 sin

00:26:16.220 --> 00:26:18.059
 what

00:26:18.059 --> 00:26:18.200
 does

00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:18.460
 Jesus

00:26:18.460 --> 00:26:18.799
 mean

00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:19.000
 by

00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:19.279
 this

00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:19.440
 I

00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:19.720
 think

00:26:19.720 --> 00:26:20.980
 what

00:26:20.980 --> 00:26:21.120
 he

00:26:21.120 --> 00:26:21.440
 means

00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:21.680
 is

00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:22.000
 if

00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:22.220
 you

00:26:22.220 --> 00:26:22.500
 were

00:26:22.500 --> 00:26:23.019
 truly

00:26:23.019 --> 00:26:23.539
 blind

00:26:23.539 --> 00:26:24.500
 if

00:26:24.500 --> 00:26:24.660
 you

00:26:24.660 --> 00:26:24.819
 were

00:26:24.819 --> 00:26:25.339
 truly

00:26:25.339 --> 00:26:25.960
 ignorant

00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:27.180
 of

00:26:27.180 --> 00:26:27.400
 what's

00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:27.620
 going

00:26:27.620 --> 00:26:27.880
 on

00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:28.140
 here

00:26:28.140 --> 00:26:28.339
 the

00:26:28.339 --> 00:26:28.839
 reality

00:26:28.839 --> 00:26:29.079
 of

00:26:29.079 --> 00:26:29.220
 who

00:26:29.220 --> 00:26:29.420
 I

00:26:29.420 --> 00:26:29.640
 am

00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:29.799
 then

00:26:29.799 --> 00:26:29.920
 you

00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:30.039
 would

00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:30.200
 not

00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:30.380
 be

00:26:30.380 --> 00:26:30.680
 guilty

00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:30.960
 of

00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:31.319
 sin

00:26:31.319 --> 00:26:33.480
 but

00:26:33.480 --> 00:26:33.680
 you're

00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:34.059
 not

00:26:34.059 --> 00:26:36.220
 you

00:26:36.220 --> 00:26:36.440
 do

00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:36.640
 know

00:26:36.640 --> 00:26:36.880
 what's

00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:37.100
 going

00:26:37.100 --> 00:26:37.360
 on

00:26:37.360 --> 00:26:37.620
 here

00:26:37.620 --> 00:26:37.960
 you

00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:38.339
 have

00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:35.240


00:28:35.240 --> 00:28:35.700
 because

00:28:35.700 --> 00:28:35.900
 they

00:28:35.900 --> 00:28:36.180
 refuse

00:28:37.859 --> 00:28:38.339
 forgiven

00:28:38.339 --> 00:28:40.120
 which

00:28:40.120 --> 00:28:40.259
 is

00:30:07.220 --> 00:30:07.480
 for

00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:07.600
 a

00:30:07.600 --> 00:30:07.800
 moment

00:30:07.800 --> 00:30:08.000
 that

00:30:08.000 --> 00:30:08.180
 you're

00:30:08.180 --> 00:30:08.320
 one

00:30:08.320 --> 00:30:08.420
 of

00:30:08.420 --> 00:30:08.540
 the

00:30:08.540 --> 00:30:09.140
 Pharisees

00:30:09.140 --> 00:30:11.420
 I

00:30:11.420 --> 00:30:11.540
 know

00:30:11.540 --> 00:30:11.780
 that's

00:30:11.780 --> 00:30:11.940
 not

00:30:11.940 --> 00:30:12.200
 something

00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:12.360
 we

00:30:12.360 --> 00:30:12.720
 naturally

00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:12.980
 want

00:30:12.980 --> 00:30:13.080
 to

00:30:13.080 --> 00:30:13.259
 do

00:30:13.259 --> 00:30:14.620
 but

00:30:14.620 --> 00:30:14.720
 I

00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:14.860
 think

00:30:14.860 --> 00:30:14.980
 we

00:30:14.980 --> 00:30:15.120
 can

00:30:15.120 --> 00:30:15.300
 learn

00:30:15.300 --> 00:30:15.500
 from

00:30:15.500 --> 00:30:15.680
 them

00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:15.960
 too

00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:19.200
 the

00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:19.520
 problem

00:30:19.520 --> 00:30:19.759
 with

00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:19.940
 them

00:30:19.940 --> 00:30:20.140
 was

00:30:20.140 --> 00:30:20.600
 pride

00:30:20.600 --> 00:30:22.480
 an

00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:23.060
 unwillingness

00:30:23.060 --> 00:30:23.240
 to

00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:23.620
 listen

00:30:23.620 --> 00:30:25.880
 they

00:30:25.880 --> 00:30:26.040
 thought

00:30:26.040 --> 00:30:26.200
 they

00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:26.320
 knew

00:30:26.320 --> 00:30:26.700
 better

00:30:26.700 --> 00:30:30.460
 maybe

00:30:30.460 --> 00:30:30.620
 you

00:30:30.620 --> 00:30:30.819
 don't

00:30:30.819 --> 00:30:31.160
 have

00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:31.960
 that

00:30:31.960 --> 00:30:32.680
 struggle

00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:32.880
 in

00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:33.019
 your

00:30:33.019 --> 00:30:33.360
 heart

00:30:33.360 --> 00:30:34.039
 but

00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:34.240
 maybe

00:30:34.240 --> 00:30:34.420
 you

00:30:34.420 --> 00:30:34.640
 do

00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:34.900
 maybe

00:30:34.900 --> 00:30:35.080
 you

00:30:35.080 --> 00:30:35.220
 are

00:30:35.220 --> 00:30:35.640
 thinking

00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:36.620
 I've

00:30:36.620 --> 00:30:36.779
 kind

00:30:36.779 --> 00:30:36.860
 of

00:30:36.860 --> 00:30:37.039
 got

00:30:37.039 --> 00:30:37.279
 this

00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:37.539
 figured

00:30:37.539 --> 00:30:37.779
 out

00:30:37.779 --> 00:30:37.980
 I've

00:30:37.980 --> 00:30:38.180
 got

00:30:38.180 --> 00:30:38.980
 I've

00:30:38.980 --> 00:30:39.100
 had

00:30:39.100 --> 00:30:39.340
 enough

00:30:39.340 --> 00:30:39.519
 of

00:30:39.519 --> 00:30:39.759
 Jesus

00:30:39.759 --> 00:30:40.259
 already

00:30:40.259 --> 00:30:41.680
 I'm

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:41.819
 good

00:30:41.819 --> 00:30:42.160
 enough

00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:42.500
 I'm

00:30:42.500 --> 00:30:42.640
 good

00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:42.779
 to

00:30:42.779 --> 00:30:43.140
 go

00:30:43.140 --> 00:30:45.600
 or

00:30:45.600 --> 00:30:45.759
 maybe

00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:45.960
 I'll

00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:46.160
 take

00:30:46.160 --> 00:30:46.279
 a

00:30:46.279 --> 00:30:46.440
 little

00:30:46.440 --> 00:30:46.640
 bit

00:30:46.640 --> 00:30:46.779
 of

00:30:46.779 --> 00:30:47.140
 Jesus

00:30:47.140 --> 00:30:48.980
 but

00:30:48.980 --> 00:30:49.140
 not

00:30:49.140 --> 00:30:49.440
 too

00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:49.840
 much

00:30:49.840 --> 00:30:52.059
 I

00:30:52.059 --> 00:30:52.240
 hope

00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:52.420
 from

00:30:52.420 --> 00:30:52.759
 Jesus

00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:53.660
 himself

00:30:53.660 --> 00:30:53.940
 this

00:30:53.940 --> 00:30:54.200
 morning

00:30:54.200 --> 00:30:54.400
 that

00:30:54.400 --> 00:30:54.519
 you

00:30:54.519 --> 00:30:54.900
 hear

00:30:54.900 --> 00:30:55.860
 and

00:30:55.860 --> 00:30:56.240
 understand

00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:56.579
 that

00:30:56.579 --> 00:30:56.740
 he

00:30:56.740 --> 00:30:56.980
 has

00:30:56.980 --> 00:30:57.339
 come

00:30:57.339 --> 00:30:57.759
 for

00:30:57.759 --> 00:30:58.259
 judgment

00:30:58.259 --> 00:30:59.980
 to

00:30:59.980 --> 00:31:00.380
 sift

00:31:00.380 --> 00:31:01.000
 and

00:31:01.000 --> 00:31:01.220
 to

00:31:01.220 --> 00:31:01.799
 separate

00:31:01.799 --> 00:31:05.460
 and

00:31:05.460 --> 00:31:05.620
 your

00:31:05.620 --> 00:31:06.059
 response

00:31:06.059 --> 00:31:06.259
 to

00:31:06.259 --> 00:31:06.500
 him

00:31:06.500 --> 00:31:08.460
 will

00:31:08.460 --> 00:31:08.660
 make

00:31:08.660 --> 00:31:08.859
 all

00:31:08.859 --> 00:31:09.019
 the

00:31:09.019 --> 00:31:09.480
 difference

00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:10.900
 in

00:31:10.900 --> 00:31:11.059
 the

00:31:11.059 --> 00:31:11.359
 world

00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:11.819
 for

00:31:11.819 --> 00:31:11.980
 the

00:31:11.980 --> 00:31:12.240
 rest

00:31:12.240 --> 00:31:12.400
 of

00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:12.839
 eternity

00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:15.019
 he's

00:31:15.019 --> 00:31:15.200
 either

00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:15.380
 going

00:31:15.380 --> 00:31:15.440
 to

00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:15.539
 be

00:31:15.539 --> 00:31:15.720
 the

00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:16.000
 stone

00:31:16.000 --> 00:31:16.180
 that

00:31:16.180 --> 00:31:16.319
 you

00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:16.720
 stumble

00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:17.099
 over

00:31:17.099 --> 00:31:19.059
 or

00:31:19.059 --> 00:31:19.220
 the

00:31:19.220 --> 00:31:19.680
 precious

00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:20.059
 corner

00:31:20.059 --> 00:31:20.420
 stone

00:31:20.420 --> 00:31:21.279
 there's

00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:21.559
 no

00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:21.900
 in

00:31:21.900 --> 00:31:22.259
 between

00:31:22.259 --> 00:31:24.279
 you'll

00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:24.460
 either

00:31:24.460 --> 00:31:24.700
 be

00:31:24.700 --> 00:31:25.079
 guilty

00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:25.819
 or

00:31:25.819 --> 00:31:26.399
 forgiven

00:31:26.399 --> 00:31:26.700
 by

00:31:26.700 --> 00:31:27.179
 God's

00:31:27.179 --> 00:31:27.559
 grace

00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:28.659
 there's

00:31:28.659 --> 00:31:28.859
 no

00:31:28.859 --> 00:31:29.019
 in

00:31:29.019 --> 00:31:29.379
 between

00:31:29.379 --> 00:31:35.299
 I

00:31:35.299 --> 00:31:35.480
 want to

00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:35.599
 end

00:31:35.599 --> 00:31:35.899
 with the

00:31:35.899 --> 00:31:36.119
 words

00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:36.299
 of

00:31:36.299 --> 00:31:36.599
 Jesus

00:31:36.599 --> 00:31:36.899
 which

00:31:36.899 --> 00:31:37.039
 we

00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:37.279
 haven't

00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:37.500
 come

00:31:37.500 --> 00:31:37.659
 to

00:31:37.659 --> 00:31:38.000
 yet

00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:38.519
 but

00:31:38.519 --> 00:31:38.759
 Jesus

00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:39.159
 simply

00:31:39.159 --> 00:31:39.439
 said

00:31:39.439 --> 00:31:39.700
 this

00:31:39.700 --> 00:31:39.819
 he

00:31:39.819 --> 00:31:40.059
 said

00:31:40.059 --> 00:31:40.439
 I

00:31:40.439 --> 00:31:40.819
 am

00:31:40.819 --> 00:31:41.019
 the

00:31:41.019 --> 00:31:41.299
 way

00:31:41.299 --> 00:31:42.439
 the

00:31:42.439 --> 00:31:42.919
 truth

00:31:42.919 --> 00:31:43.639
 and

00:31:43.639 --> 00:31:43.799
 the

00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:44.179
 life

00:31:44.179 --> 00:31:45.460
 no

00:31:45.460 --> 00:31:45.700
 one

00:31:45.700 --> 00:31:46.139
 comes

00:31:46.139 --> 00:31:46.519
 to

00:31:46.519 --> 00:31:46.659
 the

00:31:46.659 --> 00:31:47.019
 father

00:31:47.019 --> 00:31:47.899
 except

00:31:48.559 --> 00:31:50.700
 let's

00:31:50.700 --> 00:31:50.980
 pray

00:31:50.980 --> 00:31:58.279
 father

00:31:58.279 --> 00:31:58.440
 in

00:31:58.440 --> 00:31:58.620
 heaven

00:31:58.620 --> 00:31:59.039
 thank

00:31:59.039 --> 00:31:59.180

00:31:59.400 --> 00:31:59.599
 much

00:31:59.599 --> 00:31:59.779
 for

00:31:59.779 --> 00:32:00.039

00:32:02.940 --> 00:32:03.059

00:32:03.259 --> 00:32:03.720
 coming

00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:07.500
 as

00:32:07.500 --> 00:32:07.620
 we're

00:32:07.620 --> 00:32:07.799
 about

00:32:07.799 --> 00:32:08.000
 to

00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:08.299
 sing

00:32:08.299 --> 00:32:08.759
 we

00:32:08.759 --> 00:32:09.420
 celebrate

00:32:09.420 --> 00:32:09.960
 we

00:32:09.960 --> 00:32:10.319
 praise

00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:10.460
 you

00:32:10.460 --> 00:32:10.620
 that

00:32:10.620 --> 00:32:10.819
 you

00:32:10.819 --> 00:32:11.299
 have

00:32:11.299 --> 00:32:12.519
 given

00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:13.019
 sight

00:32:13.019 --> 00:32:13.480
 to

00:32:13.480 --> 00:32:13.620
 the

00:32:13.620 --> 00:32:13.920
 blind

00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:15.000
 and

00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:15.120
 that

00:32:15.120 --> 00:32:15.400
 that's

00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:15.599
 your

00:32:15.599 --> 00:32:16.099
 desire

00:32:16.099 --> 00:32:17.579
 not

00:32:17.579 --> 00:32:17.740
 that

00:32:17.740 --> 00:32:17.860
 we
