00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.580
 We're going to have the Bible reading now.

00:00:04.259 --> 00:00:09.880
 So we're reading from Romans chapter 3, verses 9 through to verse 20.

00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:18.960
 So Romans 3, verse 9.

00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:23.480
 What then? Are we Jews any better off?

00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:25.400
 No, not at all.

00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:32.439
 For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, as it is written.

00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:36.339
 No one is righteous. No, not one.

00:00:36.879 --> 00:00:40.280
 No one understands. No one seeks for God.

00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:44.359
 All have turned aside. Together they have become worthless.

00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:47.519
 No one does good. Not even one.

00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:53.060
 Their throat is an open grave. They use their tongues to deceive.

00:00:53.060 --> 00:00:56.440
 The venom of asps is under their lips.

00:00:57.080 --> 00:00:59.100
 Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.

00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:01.880
 Their feet are swift to shed blood.

00:01:02.500 --> 00:01:04.460
 In their paths are ruin and misery.

00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.320
 And the way of peace they have not known.

00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:10.439
 There is no fear of God before their eyes.

00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:16.439
 Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law.

00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:22.500
 So that every mouth may be stopped and the whole world may be held accountable to God.

00:01:23.179 --> 00:01:28.280
 For by the works of the law, no human being will be justified in his sight,

00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:31.459
 since through the law comes knowledge of sin.

00:01:31.459 --> 00:01:46.379
 Dave's going to come up and speak to us soon from that passage.

00:01:46.859 --> 00:01:51.060
 Just now would be a great time if you have kids age three to year two at school.

00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:53.159
 We have a program called Grace Kids.

00:01:54.199 --> 00:01:56.560
 Where kids will learn more about God and be looked after.

00:01:56.739 --> 00:02:00.079
 Just out in the grass area between the hall and the auditorium.

00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:00.840
 That's where that's happening.

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:02.920
 So if you guys would like to head out now.

00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:05.179
 Just while that's happening, before Dave comes up,

00:02:05.420 --> 00:02:11.659
 I just thought I'd read a part of the short article excerpt that was on the bulletin.

00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:13.659
 I'll just read that to us.

00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:18.020
 I've been really enjoying the messages on Romans that we've been going through.

00:02:18.819 --> 00:02:20.960
 Obviously all parts of the Bible are extremely valuable,

00:02:21.099 --> 00:02:25.759
 but it's just been so good to hear the messages from Romans just presenting the gospel so clearly.

00:02:27.139 --> 00:02:27.939
 The article says,

00:02:27.939 --> 00:02:30.699
 Some would argue that Paul's letter to the Romans is not for the faint-hearted.

00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:35.620
 It confronts us with the reality of God's justice and his considered commitment to judging sin,

00:02:36.079 --> 00:02:37.340
 which must include my sin.

00:02:38.079 --> 00:02:40.979
 But coming to terms with sin is not natural or easy for us.

00:02:41.740 --> 00:02:46.280
 God makes clear that sin is a self-deifying attitude,

00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:50.819
 resulting in self-asserting actions against both God and people around us.

00:02:50.819 --> 00:02:56.939
 But our dishonest, self-excusing view of self refuses to accept that our rebellion against God

00:02:56.939 --> 00:03:00.819
 is as offensive as God declares it to be, deserving his unrestrained wrath.

00:03:01.799 --> 00:03:04.459
 Individuals giving expression to their ruthless self-centeredness

00:03:04.459 --> 00:03:07.959
 are more inclined to attempt to dismantle any notion of God's righteousness

00:03:07.959 --> 00:03:10.519
 than to admit sin and guilt before him.

00:03:11.340 --> 00:03:14.439
 However, the mess of life cannot be ignored, even by the most dishonest.

00:03:15.019 --> 00:03:16.819
 People know they are broken and dysfunctional,

00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:18.819
 behind the image of happiness and success.

00:03:18.819 --> 00:03:21.699
 In their more honest moments, they long for something better.

00:03:22.419 --> 00:03:24.000
 They sense that they are made for something better.

00:03:24.739 --> 00:03:27.199
 That's why the gospel of Jesus is great good news,

00:03:27.739 --> 00:03:30.459
 announcing that God has intervened in history to put things right,

00:03:30.979 --> 00:03:33.419
 to put people right so that the good life may be enjoyed.

00:03:34.340 --> 00:03:36.159
 So the gospel is very much for the faint-hearted.

00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.680
 Come unto me, you who labour and are heavy laden,

00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:41.079
 and I will give rest for your souls.

00:03:43.359 --> 00:03:47.539
 Yeah, if Dave would like to come up now, we'll hear from that section in Romans.

00:03:48.819 --> 00:03:55.039
 Well, I'd like to start this morning by quoting some song lyrics.

00:03:56.419 --> 00:03:58.299
 It's a pop song.

00:03:58.879 --> 00:03:59.560
 I think it's pop.

00:03:59.699 --> 00:03:59.959
 I don't know.

00:03:59.979 --> 00:04:01.799
 I don't know music and genre as well enough.

00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.340
 It's by John Bellion, if you know John Bellion,

00:04:04.519 --> 00:04:06.019
 and the song is called The Internet.

00:04:06.900 --> 00:04:09.579
 So here's some lyrics from this song.

00:04:09.580 --> 00:04:14.800
 Life became dangerous the day we all became famous.

00:04:15.580 --> 00:04:19.660
 No one cares if you're happy, just as long as you claim it.

00:04:20.300 --> 00:04:24.460
 No one cares if you have it, just as long as they think you do.

00:04:25.580 --> 00:04:26.600
 I don't need the foot.

00:04:27.540 --> 00:04:29.480
 I just need you to think I kick it.

00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:31.620
 I don't need the wood.

00:04:32.300 --> 00:04:34.020
 I just need you to think I hit it.

00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:35.719
 I don't need the good.

00:04:36.419 --> 00:04:38.060
 I just need you to think I did it.

00:04:38.819 --> 00:04:39.799
 I don't need the good.

00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:40.859
 I don't need the good.

00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:42.180
 I don't need the word.

00:04:42.479 --> 00:04:44.120
 I just need you to think I said it.

00:04:44.659 --> 00:04:45.819
 I don't need to learn.

00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:48.219
 I just need you to think I get it.

00:04:48.939 --> 00:04:50.079
 I don't need the sermon.

00:04:50.539 --> 00:04:51.899
 This might be relevant right now.

00:04:52.539 --> 00:04:54.799
 I just need you to think I read it.

00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:56.219
 I don't need the sermon.

00:04:56.359 --> 00:04:57.019
 I don't need the sermon.

00:04:57.019 --> 00:05:01.000
 And then it just repeats just as long as they think you do.

00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:10.259
 and it's quite a very like bouncy tune but it's quite a piercing social commentary isn't it

00:05:10.259 --> 00:05:20.379
 do you find that piercing I think what he what he's saying is substance reality doesn't count

00:05:20.379 --> 00:05:29.959
 it's not important to get by in the world today the only thing that counts is if people accept

00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:34.120
 whatever image of yourself that you present to the world

00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:41.079
 does that do you think that describes the day we're living in

00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:50.539
 now as much as the internet has changed the way we live this thinking is has been around

00:05:50.539 --> 00:05:58.699
 far longer than the internet just take the people of Israel when they're appointing their first king

00:05:58.699 --> 00:06:04.259
 king Saul this is kind of relevant to the kids talk who did who do they choose like who's going

00:06:04.259 --> 00:06:10.439
 to be their leader what qualities are they going to look for well they look around and go oh there's

00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:15.599
 a guy whose head and shoulders above the rest Pete might have been chosen that day who knows but

00:06:15.599 --> 00:06:23.680
 they pick Saul he is he is tall he can tower over our enemies he can keep us safe

00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:32.480
 and here's God's here's what God says in 1 Samuel 16 man mankind looks at the outward appearance but

00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:41.300
 the Lord looks at the heart this thinking has been around since the beginning of human history

00:06:41.300 --> 00:06:49.639
 human beings we were made in the image of God each of us were meant to reflect the character the

00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:56.899
 substance of God in everything we did every word we speak all our choices as we engage in the world

00:06:56.899 --> 00:07:05.539
 but instead of expressing God's character the substance we often settle for just getting one another's praise

00:07:05.539 --> 00:07:07.839
 by what we present on the outside

00:07:07.839 --> 00:07:13.179
 like Adam and Eve who so fig leaves

00:07:13.179 --> 00:07:16.219
 fig leaves I don't know leaves together

00:07:16.219 --> 00:07:18.619
 to cover

00:07:18.619 --> 00:07:20.099
 their shame

00:07:20.099 --> 00:07:25.519
 psychologist Larry Crabb he says that's a picture of how we relate to one another

00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:27.359
 how we relate to God

00:07:27.359 --> 00:07:31.179
 we have a covering we present an image a mask a layer

00:07:31.179 --> 00:07:35.899
 so that you you accept me based on that layer because if you get too close

00:07:35.899 --> 00:07:39.939
 and see what I'm really like that's too dangerous you might reject me

00:07:39.939 --> 00:07:44.560
 we're bouncing off each other we're all presenting these layers

00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:48.199
 not the substance of God's character

00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:55.719
 I wouldn't blame you if you're thinking at this point what has this got to do with Romans 3

00:07:55.719 --> 00:07:57.679
 and the Bible reading we just read

00:07:57.679 --> 00:08:01.079
 here's how I think it connects

00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:06.959
 Romans 3 9 to 20 and Romans 1 to 3 which we've been looking at for a few weeks now

00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:09.300
 it's like a mirror

00:08:09.300 --> 00:08:12.379
 it's it's like a MRI scan

00:08:12.379 --> 00:08:16.199
 that tells us what I am really like

00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:18.500
 what you are really like

00:08:18.500 --> 00:08:18.819
 what

00:08:18.819 --> 00:08:21.639
 all humanity is really

00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:22.699
 like

00:08:22.699 --> 00:08:26.240
 and it bypasses any image

00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:28.599
 any mask that we present to the world

00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:30.920
 and it shows us the substance

00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:32.480
 it shows us the reality

00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:34.519
 the true condition of our hearts

00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:38.620
 it is difficult to hear

00:08:38.620 --> 00:08:40.700
 it is difficult to accept

00:08:40.700 --> 00:08:45.860
 and our normal way of operating in the world

00:08:45.860 --> 00:08:48.340
 like that song was talking about

00:08:48.340 --> 00:08:50.840
 it doesn't care about substance

00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:53.639
 it doesn't help us to hear

00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.139
 what God says to us this morning

00:08:56.139 --> 00:09:03.399
 it's going to be in direct competition to what God says to us this morning

00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:03.840
 because

00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:07.100
 if my self-assessment

00:09:07.100 --> 00:09:09.899
 based off the approval I get from others

00:09:09.899 --> 00:09:12.360
 like I want you to think I'm a good husband

00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:13.340
 I'm a good father

00:09:13.340 --> 00:09:14.580
 a good pastor

00:09:14.580 --> 00:09:15.580
 a good whatever

00:09:15.580 --> 00:09:15.919
 whatever

00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:19.399
 if my self-assessment based off your approval

00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:21.159
 says one thing

00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:22.600
 but God's assessment

00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:25.220
 says my heart is corrupt

00:09:25.220 --> 00:09:26.600
 I've got to choose

00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.680
 which assessment is me

00:09:28.680 --> 00:09:30.139
 which one's more accurate

00:09:30.139 --> 00:09:36.240
 it's hard to accept

00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:41.180
 so I went to the dentist with Emma a few years ago

00:09:41.180 --> 00:09:43.620
 for a general check up

00:09:43.620 --> 00:09:45.139
 she went first

00:09:45.139 --> 00:09:46.720
 and I was a bit nervous

00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:47.820
 in the waiting room

00:09:47.820 --> 00:09:48.759
 and she came out

00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:50.360
 with a glowing report

00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:51.800
 like her teeth are amazing

00:09:51.800 --> 00:09:52.960
 I was like oh good

00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:53.980
 that gave me confidence

00:09:53.980 --> 00:09:54.540
 went in

00:09:54.539 --> 00:09:56.240
 let's just say

00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:57.299
 I got a different report

00:09:57.299 --> 00:10:01.419
 the dentist had something very different to say to me

00:10:01.419 --> 00:10:03.599
 and driving home

00:10:03.599 --> 00:10:05.339
 I felt deflated

00:10:05.339 --> 00:10:07.360
 I felt like my ego was just

00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:08.459
 gone

00:10:08.459 --> 00:10:09.839
 I even resented

00:10:09.839 --> 00:10:10.419
 Emma's

00:10:10.419 --> 00:10:12.099
 I'm not sure if I told you this

00:10:12.099 --> 00:10:13.019
 but I resented

00:10:13.019 --> 00:10:15.099
 your glowing report

00:10:15.099 --> 00:10:15.419
 I'm just

00:10:15.419 --> 00:10:17.240
 what

00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:19.839
 because it highlighted my problems

00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:22.139
 it wasn't pleasant

00:10:22.139 --> 00:10:22.879
 it wasn't pleasant to hear

00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:24.940
 that some of my teeth

00:10:24.940 --> 00:10:26.200
 had rotting holes

00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:29.500
 you're not going to look at my smile

00:10:29.500 --> 00:10:29.740
 any

00:10:29.740 --> 00:10:31.019
 the same after this

00:10:31.019 --> 00:10:31.220
 but

00:10:31.220 --> 00:10:32.340
 they've been filled

00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:35.320
 what if my dentist

00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:36.320
 had just lied to me

00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:36.600
 and gone

00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:37.899
 I'll just keep what you're doing

00:10:37.899 --> 00:10:38.460
 keep

00:10:38.460 --> 00:10:40.680
 keep brushing the way you are

00:10:40.680 --> 00:10:42.980
 your teeth look great

00:10:42.980 --> 00:10:46.300
 wouldn't be a very good dentist

00:10:46.299 --> 00:10:49.240
 he didn't want

00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:50.139
 my mouth

00:10:50.139 --> 00:10:51.519
 to rot

00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:54.679
 it was loving truth

00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:58.459
 Romans 1 to 3

00:10:58.459 --> 00:10:59.459
 is an assessment

00:10:59.459 --> 00:11:00.599
 of our condition

00:11:00.599 --> 00:11:00.979
 that

00:11:00.979 --> 00:11:02.799
 is hard to accept

00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:04.319
 but it comes from a place of love

00:11:04.319 --> 00:11:07.179
 God doesn't want us to rot

00:11:07.179 --> 00:11:10.000
 it's hard to accept

00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:11.779
 but it comes from a place of love

00:11:11.779 --> 00:11:15.099
 so before we get

00:11:15.099 --> 00:11:16.979
 we're about to dive into the passage

00:11:16.979 --> 00:11:17.259
 but

00:11:17.259 --> 00:11:19.199
 I think we need to ask ourselves

00:11:19.199 --> 00:11:20.299
 before we hear this

00:11:20.299 --> 00:11:22.279
 will you

00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:24.099
 entertain the possibility

00:11:24.099 --> 00:11:25.120
 that God

00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:26.179
 knows you

00:11:26.179 --> 00:11:26.819
 better than

00:11:26.819 --> 00:11:28.079
 you know you

00:11:28.079 --> 00:11:32.259
 will you allow

00:11:32.259 --> 00:11:33.339
 the righteous judge

00:11:33.339 --> 00:11:34.359
 to show you

00:11:34.359 --> 00:11:35.359
 what you're really like

00:11:35.359 --> 00:11:36.379
 what I'm really like

00:11:36.379 --> 00:11:37.980
 or are you going to just cling

00:11:37.980 --> 00:11:39.939
 to your own self-assessment

00:11:39.939 --> 00:11:42.320
 that you think is true

00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:43.039
 because others

00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:44.120
 are approving

00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:45.100
 what they see in you

00:11:45.100 --> 00:11:48.379
 okay

00:11:48.379 --> 00:11:48.720
 well

00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:49.720
 let's dive in

00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:50.019
 shall we

00:11:50.019 --> 00:11:51.639
 please have your Bibles open

00:11:51.639 --> 00:11:53.679
 to Romans chapter 3

00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:55.480
 or just listen along

00:11:55.480 --> 00:12:00.200
 so verse 9

00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:01.519
 verse 9 gives us

00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:02.899
 Paul's main point

00:12:02.899 --> 00:12:04.500
 he's been driving home

00:12:04.500 --> 00:12:06.019
 from chapter 1

00:12:06.019 --> 00:12:06.539
 verse 18

00:12:06.539 --> 00:12:07.639
 and he's now reaching

00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:08.460
 the climax

00:12:08.460 --> 00:12:11.039
 he says in verse 9

00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.940
 we have already charged

00:12:13.940 --> 00:12:15.580
 that all

00:12:15.580 --> 00:12:17.419
 both Jews

00:12:17.419 --> 00:12:18.480
 and Greeks

00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:19.960
 Jews and non-Jews

00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:20.919
 all

00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:23.159
 are under sin

00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:25.000
 whether the openly

00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:26.159
 immoral person

00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:28.240
 the morally sensitive person

00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:30.000
 the religiously privileged person

00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:31.100
 none of us

00:12:31.100 --> 00:12:32.700
 live up to the good

00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:33.259
 we know

00:12:33.259 --> 00:12:34.180
 we should be doing

00:12:34.180 --> 00:12:35.000
 none of us

00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:36.000
 live up to the knowledge

00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:36.680
 of God

00:12:36.680 --> 00:12:37.900
 his character

00:12:37.900 --> 00:12:39.720
 we should be

00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:44.960
 so Paul

00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:45.820
 finishes

00:12:45.820 --> 00:12:47.540
 this main point

00:12:47.540 --> 00:12:48.720
 this main section

00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:50.040
 by bringing home

00:12:50.040 --> 00:12:50.480
 scripture

00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:51.480
 to bear witness

00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:53.040
 to prove

00:12:53.040 --> 00:12:54.600
 that even the Jewish people

00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:56.000
 are not

00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:56.800
 righteous

00:12:56.800 --> 00:12:59.060
 and if the Jews

00:12:59.060 --> 00:12:59.759
 fall short

00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:00.740
 even while having

00:13:00.740 --> 00:13:01.759
 God's perfect law

00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:03.639
 than all humanity

00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:04.060
 too

00:13:04.060 --> 00:13:04.960
 falls short

00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:06.659
 so in a sense

00:13:06.659 --> 00:13:07.539
 these verses

00:13:07.539 --> 00:13:09.180
 there's nothing new here

00:13:09.180 --> 00:13:10.539
 it's kind of a summary

00:13:10.539 --> 00:13:11.340
 it's a climax

00:13:11.340 --> 00:13:13.879
 he's already made the case

00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:15.259
 and now he's bringing

00:13:15.259 --> 00:13:15.980
 God's word

00:13:15.980 --> 00:13:16.860
 as witness

00:13:16.860 --> 00:13:18.980
 he's adding

00:13:18.980 --> 00:13:19.860
 further weight

00:13:19.860 --> 00:13:21.560
 to what he said

00:13:21.560 --> 00:13:24.539
 but he does use

00:13:24.539 --> 00:13:25.539
 a new phrase

00:13:25.539 --> 00:13:26.519
 if you notice

00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:27.320
 in verse 9

00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:28.260
 to describe

00:13:28.260 --> 00:13:29.700
 what is the root

00:13:29.700 --> 00:13:30.220
 problem

00:13:30.220 --> 00:13:30.940
 for us all

00:13:30.940 --> 00:13:33.240
 what is the problem

00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:34.340
 why aren't we righteous

00:13:34.340 --> 00:13:36.600
 we've got a new phrase here

00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:40.920
 all are under

00:13:40.920 --> 00:13:42.020
 sin

00:13:42.020 --> 00:13:43.879
 that's an interesting

00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:44.420
 expression

00:13:44.420 --> 00:13:45.540
 isn't it

00:13:45.540 --> 00:13:46.820
 this is more than saying

00:13:46.820 --> 00:13:47.980
 that people are basically

00:13:47.980 --> 00:13:48.320
 good

00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:48.900
 and sometimes

00:13:48.900 --> 00:13:49.620
 we get it wrong

00:13:49.620 --> 00:13:51.840
 it's not just saying

00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:52.280
 that people

00:13:52.280 --> 00:13:53.700
 commit sins

00:13:53.700 --> 00:13:54.560
 like lying

00:13:54.560 --> 00:13:55.140
 and cheating

00:13:55.139 --> 00:13:55.939
 and gossiping

00:13:55.939 --> 00:13:56.600
 and slandering

00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:57.199
 and so on

00:13:57.199 --> 00:13:57.600
 and so on

00:13:57.600 --> 00:13:58.919
 it's not just saying

00:13:58.919 --> 00:13:59.399
 that we

00:13:59.399 --> 00:14:01.539
 commit sins

00:14:01.539 --> 00:14:02.919
 any Jew

00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:04.460
 of Paul's day

00:14:04.460 --> 00:14:05.600
 would openly admit

00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:06.299
 that they sin

00:14:06.299 --> 00:14:07.779
 they commit sins

00:14:07.779 --> 00:14:08.919
 and that's why

00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:09.460
 they need the

00:14:09.460 --> 00:14:10.480
 sacrificial system

00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:11.659
 Paul is saying

00:14:11.659 --> 00:14:12.439
 something more than that

00:14:12.439 --> 00:14:13.259
 he's saying that

00:14:13.259 --> 00:14:15.679
 we are under

00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:16.439
 sin

00:14:16.439 --> 00:14:18.960
 he's describing

00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:19.840
 sin as

00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:20.919
 as a force

00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:21.819
 a power

00:14:21.820 --> 00:14:23.480
 a controlling

00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:24.360
 principle

00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:25.780
 over our lives

00:14:25.780 --> 00:14:26.780
 that keeps us

00:14:26.780 --> 00:14:27.280
 captive

00:14:27.280 --> 00:14:29.379
 we are under

00:14:29.379 --> 00:14:30.260
 the control

00:14:30.260 --> 00:14:31.420
 of sin

00:14:31.420 --> 00:14:35.040
 this is quite

00:14:35.040 --> 00:14:36.440
 a claim

00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:37.820
 because Jews

00:14:37.820 --> 00:14:38.300
 would have thought

00:14:38.300 --> 00:14:38.900
 of themselves

00:14:38.900 --> 00:14:39.900
 as under God

00:14:39.900 --> 00:14:40.580
 that God

00:14:40.580 --> 00:14:41.240
 is the controlling

00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:42.340
 principle of their life

00:14:42.340 --> 00:14:43.180
 Paul is saying

00:14:43.180 --> 00:14:43.520
 no

00:14:43.520 --> 00:14:44.660
 sin

00:14:44.660 --> 00:14:45.820
 is the controlling

00:14:45.820 --> 00:14:46.640
 principle

00:14:46.640 --> 00:14:47.640
 of your life

00:14:47.640 --> 00:14:51.040
 it's a big claim

00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:51.980
 and Paul

00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:52.699
 backs it up

00:14:52.699 --> 00:14:53.399
 by quoting

00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:55.259
 scripture itself

00:14:55.259 --> 00:14:57.399
 quoting the Old Testament

00:14:57.399 --> 00:14:58.179
 the Jews

00:14:58.179 --> 00:14:58.839
 boasted

00:14:58.839 --> 00:14:59.919
 in having the law

00:14:59.919 --> 00:15:00.759
 well

00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:01.980
 listen to what

00:15:01.980 --> 00:15:02.779
 the law says

00:15:02.779 --> 00:15:07.299
 so here's the quotes

00:15:07.299 --> 00:15:08.419
 you can see in the outline

00:15:08.419 --> 00:15:09.679
 where Paul quotes from

00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:11.120
 he jumps

00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:12.399
 all around the Psalms

00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:13.139
 and then he goes

00:15:13.139 --> 00:15:13.679
 to Isaiah

00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:15.039
 in verses 10 to 12

00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:16.559
 his point there

00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:17.299
 is the problem

00:15:17.299 --> 00:15:18.299
 it's universal

00:15:18.299 --> 00:15:19.579
 and then

00:15:19.579 --> 00:15:20.120
 in verses

00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:21.179
 13 to 17

00:15:21.179 --> 00:15:23.299
 we can see

00:15:23.299 --> 00:15:23.919
 the problem

00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:25.480
 in our words

00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:26.379
 and in our actions

00:15:26.379 --> 00:15:27.480
 that we

00:15:27.480 --> 00:15:28.700
 are under sin

00:15:28.700 --> 00:15:29.759
 and we can see

00:15:29.759 --> 00:15:30.580
 the fruit of that

00:15:30.580 --> 00:15:32.039
 it reveals

00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:32.919
 what's in our heart

00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:34.159
 and then verse 18

00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:35.580
 describes the root cause

00:15:35.580 --> 00:15:37.220
 we don't fear God

00:15:37.220 --> 00:15:39.139
 so let's

00:15:39.139 --> 00:15:39.759
 let's take these

00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:40.360
 one at a time

00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:40.940
 first

00:15:40.940 --> 00:15:42.179
 the power of sin

00:15:42.179 --> 00:15:43.580
 is universal

00:15:43.580 --> 00:15:47.019
 no one

00:15:47.019 --> 00:15:48.740
 or none

00:15:48.740 --> 00:15:49.820
 one is righteous

00:15:49.820 --> 00:15:51.779
 no

00:15:51.779 --> 00:15:53.039
 not one

00:15:53.039 --> 00:15:54.659
 no one

00:15:54.659 --> 00:15:55.500
 understands

00:15:55.500 --> 00:15:57.560
 no one

00:15:57.560 --> 00:15:59.539
 seeks for God

00:15:59.539 --> 00:16:02.240
 all have turned aside

00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:04.159
 together they have

00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:05.039
 become worthless

00:16:05.039 --> 00:16:06.279
 no one

00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:07.440
 does good

00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:08.639
 not

00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:09.740
 even

00:16:09.740 --> 00:16:10.379
 one

00:16:10.379 --> 00:16:16.220
 like

00:16:16.220 --> 00:16:16.919
 it's self

00:16:16.919 --> 00:16:17.220
 evident

00:16:17.220 --> 00:16:18.039
 that those

00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:18.299
 who don't

00:16:18.299 --> 00:16:18.960
 believe in God

00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:19.559
 don't seek

00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:19.960
 for God

00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:20.200
 but

00:16:20.200 --> 00:16:21.500
 like there's

00:16:21.500 --> 00:16:22.000
 plenty of

00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:22.580
 religion going

00:16:22.580 --> 00:16:23.159
 on in today

00:16:23.159 --> 00:16:24.419
 in our world

00:16:24.419 --> 00:16:24.779
 today

00:16:24.779 --> 00:16:26.320
 there's plenty

00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:27.220
 of Buddhist

00:16:27.220 --> 00:16:27.779
 and Hindu

00:16:27.779 --> 00:16:28.159
 monks

00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:28.879
 there's plenty

00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:29.539
 of Muslims

00:16:29.539 --> 00:16:30.379
 praying five

00:16:30.379 --> 00:16:31.039
 times a day

00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:32.439
 there's plenty

00:16:32.439 --> 00:16:32.919
 of Jewish

00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:33.639
 synagogues

00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:34.440
 still gathering

00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:36.000
 there's so much

00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:36.700
 religion in our

00:16:36.700 --> 00:16:37.220
 world today

00:16:37.220 --> 00:16:37.879
 maybe not

00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:38.820
 in our culture

00:16:38.820 --> 00:16:39.440
 as much

00:16:39.440 --> 00:16:40.260
 but around the

00:16:40.260 --> 00:16:40.500
 world

00:16:40.500 --> 00:16:41.460
 it is full

00:16:41.460 --> 00:16:42.180
 of religion

00:16:42.180 --> 00:16:44.140
 and in Paul's

00:16:44.140 --> 00:16:44.420
 day

00:16:44.420 --> 00:16:45.660
 atheists

00:16:45.660 --> 00:16:46.560
 was very rare

00:16:46.560 --> 00:16:47.380
 everyone was

00:16:47.380 --> 00:16:48.040
 worshipping God

00:16:48.040 --> 00:16:49.340
 how can Paul say

00:16:49.340 --> 00:16:50.500
 no one

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:51.640
 seeks

00:16:51.640 --> 00:16:53.020
 for God

00:16:53.020 --> 00:16:56.700
 I think we come

00:16:56.700 --> 00:16:57.280
 to that answer

00:16:57.280 --> 00:16:58.080
 in verse 20

00:16:58.080 --> 00:16:59.240
 but I want you

00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:00.100
 to pause on that

00:17:00.100 --> 00:17:00.620
 I just want you

00:17:00.620 --> 00:17:01.420
 to feel the weight

00:17:01.420 --> 00:17:01.820
 of it

00:17:01.820 --> 00:17:03.260
 no one

00:17:03.260 --> 00:17:05.380
 wants God

00:17:05.380 --> 00:17:10.140
 lined up

00:17:10.140 --> 00:17:10.980
 before the

00:17:10.980 --> 00:17:11.380
 heavenly

00:17:11.380 --> 00:17:12.320
 courtroom

00:17:12.320 --> 00:17:12.780
 bench

00:17:12.780 --> 00:17:13.440
 God says

00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:14.340
 of all of us

00:17:14.340 --> 00:17:14.980
 everyone in

00:17:14.980 --> 00:17:15.480
 this room

00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:17.940
 not righteous

00:17:17.940 --> 00:17:18.680
 no one is

00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:19.180
 righteous

00:17:19.180 --> 00:17:24.140
 some Christians

00:17:24.140 --> 00:17:25.020
 ask of these

00:17:25.020 --> 00:17:25.700
 verses

00:17:25.700 --> 00:17:26.860
 okay Paul

00:17:26.860 --> 00:17:27.340
 do you

00:17:27.340 --> 00:17:28.320
 actually mean

00:17:28.320 --> 00:17:29.640
 no one

00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:32.120
 do you mean

00:17:32.120 --> 00:17:32.960
 every single

00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:33.400
 person

00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:34.180
 is that what

00:17:34.180 --> 00:17:34.560
 you're saying

00:17:34.560 --> 00:17:35.720
 because when

00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:36.340
 you read

00:17:36.340 --> 00:17:37.300
 the context

00:17:37.300 --> 00:17:37.640
 of the

00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:38.140
 Psalms

00:17:38.140 --> 00:17:39.840
 the context

00:17:39.840 --> 00:17:40.160
 of those

00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:40.580
 Psalms

00:17:40.580 --> 00:17:41.019
 is

00:17:41.019 --> 00:17:41.560
 a lot

00:17:41.560 --> 00:17:41.740
 of the

00:17:41.740 --> 00:17:41.960
 Psalms

00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:42.200
 are by

00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:42.660
 King

00:17:42.660 --> 00:17:43.019
 David

00:17:43.019 --> 00:17:43.840
 and he's

00:17:43.840 --> 00:17:44.120
 saying

00:17:44.120 --> 00:17:44.840
 those who

00:17:44.840 --> 00:17:45.680
 oppose him

00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:46.280
 those who

00:17:46.280 --> 00:17:47.120
 oppose God

00:17:47.120 --> 00:17:48.340
 they are in

00:17:48.340 --> 00:17:48.680
 the wicked

00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:49.140
 camp

00:17:49.140 --> 00:17:49.960
 me and

00:17:49.960 --> 00:17:50.259
 everyone

00:17:50.259 --> 00:17:51.600
 who seeks

00:17:51.600 --> 00:17:52.140
 for God

00:17:52.140 --> 00:17:53.620
 they're in

00:17:53.620 --> 00:17:54.120
 the righteous

00:17:54.120 --> 00:17:54.519
 camp

00:17:54.519 --> 00:17:55.100
 so the

00:17:55.100 --> 00:17:56.120
 original meaning

00:17:56.120 --> 00:17:56.580
 is

00:17:56.580 --> 00:17:57.800
 there were

00:17:57.800 --> 00:17:58.320
 some Jews

00:17:58.320 --> 00:17:58.640
 who were

00:17:58.640 --> 00:17:59.000
 righteous

00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:00.700
 but then

00:18:00.700 --> 00:18:01.080
 there's the

00:18:01.080 --> 00:18:01.860
 enemies of God

00:18:01.860 --> 00:18:02.420
 they're in

00:18:02.420 --> 00:18:02.780
 the wicked

00:18:02.780 --> 00:18:03.220
 camp

00:18:03.220 --> 00:18:05.019
 and so

00:18:05.019 --> 00:18:06.220
 some Christians

00:18:06.220 --> 00:18:06.880
 interpret this

00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:07.319
 as saying

00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:09.420
 it's not

00:18:09.420 --> 00:18:10.160
 literally

00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:11.319
 everyone

00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:12.240
 that Paul

00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:12.680
 is talking

00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:12.980
 about

00:18:12.980 --> 00:18:15.539
 we can't

00:18:15.539 --> 00:18:16.039
 just dismiss

00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:16.299
 this

00:18:16.299 --> 00:18:16.680
 that's an

00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:17.620
 important tool

00:18:17.620 --> 00:18:18.259
 for understanding

00:18:18.259 --> 00:18:18.700
 the Bible

00:18:18.700 --> 00:18:19.160
 we've got to

00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:20.079
 understand the

00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:20.680
 quotes in

00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:21.120
 their original

00:18:21.120 --> 00:18:21.700
 context

00:18:21.700 --> 00:18:23.920
 there's a few

00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:24.660
 reasons I'm

00:18:24.660 --> 00:18:25.640
 not convinced

00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:26.240
 that Paul

00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:26.920
 leaves any

00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:27.519
 room for

00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:28.299
 some Jews

00:18:28.299 --> 00:18:28.640
 to be

00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:29.120
 righteous

00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:31.279
 the main

00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:31.759
 basis

00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:33.539
 I think

00:18:33.539 --> 00:18:33.939
 is that

00:18:33.939 --> 00:18:34.719
 more important

00:18:34.719 --> 00:18:35.059
 than the

00:18:35.059 --> 00:18:35.419
 original

00:18:35.419 --> 00:18:36.079
 context

00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:37.319
 is what

00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:38.000
 is the

00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:38.899
 apostle Paul

00:18:38.899 --> 00:18:39.739
 using the

00:18:39.739 --> 00:18:40.519
 verses to

00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:41.219
 do now

00:18:41.219 --> 00:18:42.219
 in this

00:18:42.219 --> 00:18:43.159
 in Romans

00:18:43.159 --> 00:18:45.559
 he understands

00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:46.059
 the original

00:18:46.059 --> 00:18:46.859
 context but

00:18:46.859 --> 00:18:47.279
 he's not

00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:48.179
 restrained

00:18:48.179 --> 00:18:49.359
 by the

00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:49.679
 original

00:18:49.679 --> 00:18:50.339
 context

00:18:50.339 --> 00:18:54.099
 to leave a

00:18:54.099 --> 00:18:55.439
 caveat of

00:18:55.439 --> 00:18:55.879
 righteous

00:18:55.879 --> 00:18:57.179
 Jews would

00:18:57.179 --> 00:18:58.039
 contradict what

00:18:58.039 --> 00:18:58.559
 he said in

00:18:58.559 --> 00:18:59.139
 verse 9

00:18:59.139 --> 00:19:00.299
 that all

00:19:00.299 --> 00:19:01.099
 both Jews

00:19:01.099 --> 00:19:01.579
 and Greeks

00:19:01.579 --> 00:19:02.039
 are under

00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:02.379
 sin

00:19:02.379 --> 00:19:03.319
 it contradicts

00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:03.939
 his whole

00:19:03.939 --> 00:19:04.639
 argument so

00:19:04.639 --> 00:19:04.919
 far

00:19:04.919 --> 00:19:06.539
 and then in

00:19:06.539 --> 00:19:07.199
 verse 19

00:19:07.199 --> 00:19:08.659
 Paul explicitly

00:19:08.659 --> 00:19:09.879
 applies it to

00:19:09.879 --> 00:19:10.579
 Jewish people

00:19:10.579 --> 00:19:11.819
 we know that

00:19:11.819 --> 00:19:12.240
 whatever the

00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:12.819
 law says it

00:19:12.819 --> 00:19:13.259
 speaks to

00:19:13.259 --> 00:19:13.639
 those who

00:19:13.639 --> 00:19:14.159
 are under

00:19:14.159 --> 00:19:14.619
 the law

00:19:14.619 --> 00:19:17.059
 so it

00:19:17.059 --> 00:19:17.559
 would undermine

00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:18.259
 his argument

00:19:18.259 --> 00:19:18.779
 to say

00:19:18.779 --> 00:19:19.500
 oh there is

00:19:19.500 --> 00:19:20.419
 some who

00:19:20.419 --> 00:19:20.939
 are righteous

00:19:20.939 --> 00:19:22.519
 and then he

00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:23.339
 applies it to

00:19:23.339 --> 00:19:24.159
 Jews saying

00:19:24.159 --> 00:19:24.899
 what the law

00:19:24.899 --> 00:19:25.720
 says it says

00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:26.720
 to you if

00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:27.740
 you're under

00:19:27.740 --> 00:19:28.220
 the law

00:19:28.220 --> 00:19:29.939
 and then the

00:19:29.939 --> 00:19:30.799
 implication he

00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:31.359
 draws from

00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:32.379
 this is

00:19:32.379 --> 00:19:32.960
 universal

00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:34.740
 every mouth

00:19:34.740 --> 00:19:35.679
 will be

00:19:35.679 --> 00:19:36.139
 stopped

00:19:36.139 --> 00:19:36.980
 the whole

00:19:36.980 --> 00:19:37.559
 world

00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:39.139
 held accountable

00:19:39.139 --> 00:19:40.539
 to God

00:19:40.539 --> 00:19:43.240
 the other

00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:44.159
 reason I'm

00:19:44.159 --> 00:19:44.619
 not convinced

00:19:44.619 --> 00:19:45.299
 is that it's

00:19:45.299 --> 00:19:45.559
 a little

00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:46.319
 selective to

00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:46.740
 say that

00:19:46.740 --> 00:19:47.559
 Psalms the

00:19:47.559 --> 00:19:48.099
 context of

00:19:48.099 --> 00:19:49.639
 Psalms is

00:19:49.639 --> 00:19:50.460
 righteous and

00:19:50.460 --> 00:19:50.940
 unrighteous

00:19:50.940 --> 00:19:52.119
 because the

00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:53.200
 Isaiah quote

00:19:53.200 --> 00:19:54.420
 is talking to

00:19:54.420 --> 00:19:55.220
 all Jews

00:19:55.220 --> 00:19:56.579
 that is the

00:19:56.579 --> 00:19:57.379
 original context

00:19:57.379 --> 00:19:58.019
 so what I

00:19:58.019 --> 00:19:58.599
 think Paul is

00:19:58.599 --> 00:19:59.299
 doing is going

00:19:59.299 --> 00:20:00.440
 Jews you think

00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:00.839
 you're in the

00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:01.700
 righteous camp

00:20:01.700 --> 00:20:02.420
 and everyone

00:20:02.420 --> 00:20:03.200
 else is wicked

00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:06.259
 but you are

00:20:06.259 --> 00:20:06.799
 in the wicked

00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:07.299
 camp

00:20:07.299 --> 00:20:09.279
 and that's

00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:10.220
 you can see

00:20:10.220 --> 00:20:11.759
 that by the

00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:12.480
 fruit of what

00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:13.140
 you say and

00:20:13.140 --> 00:20:13.680
 what you do

00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:15.759
 that the law

00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:16.740
 is for you to

00:20:16.740 --> 00:20:17.660
 hear but you

00:20:17.660 --> 00:20:18.579
 don't do it

00:20:18.579 --> 00:20:23.319
 so none is

00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:23.920
 righteous

00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:27.360
 Paul is saying

00:20:27.360 --> 00:20:28.400
 all are under

00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:29.600
 controlling power

00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:30.539
 of sin and

00:20:30.539 --> 00:20:31.420
 Jewish history

00:20:31.420 --> 00:20:32.900
 is testimony

00:20:32.900 --> 00:20:33.500
 to that

00:20:33.500 --> 00:20:35.720
 scripture leaves

00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:36.720
 no one exempt

00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:40.259
 so where

00:20:40.259 --> 00:20:41.500
 does Paul turn

00:20:41.500 --> 00:20:41.960
 in scripture

00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:43.440
 to prove this

00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:44.420
 to give

00:20:44.420 --> 00:20:45.539
 evidence of

00:20:45.539 --> 00:20:45.839
 this

00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:48.019
 I thought about

00:20:48.019 --> 00:20:48.339
 that like

00:20:48.339 --> 00:20:49.079
 where would you

00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:49.640
 go like

00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:50.539
 maybe the

00:20:50.539 --> 00:20:51.380
 golden calf

00:20:51.380 --> 00:20:52.640
 incident in

00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:53.140
 the giving of

00:20:53.140 --> 00:20:53.480
 the law

00:20:53.480 --> 00:20:54.779
 immediately they're

00:20:54.779 --> 00:20:55.380
 worshipping other

00:20:55.380 --> 00:20:55.720
 gods

00:20:55.720 --> 00:20:57.180
 like how would

00:20:57.180 --> 00:20:59.160
 you prove that

00:20:59.160 --> 00:20:59.860
 someone isn't

00:20:59.860 --> 00:21:00.799
 righteous with

00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:01.500
 all the religion

00:21:01.500 --> 00:21:02.400
 going on in

00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:03.000
 Jewish day

00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:05.220
 I think it's

00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:05.779
 interesting that

00:21:05.779 --> 00:21:06.559
 Paul goes to

00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:07.079
 the mouth

00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:08.960
 look at all the

00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:09.640
 references to

00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:10.140
 the mouth

00:21:10.140 --> 00:21:12.380
 he looks at

00:21:12.380 --> 00:21:13.039
 the flesh

00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:13.940
 there's lots

00:21:13.940 --> 00:21:14.680
 about the mouth

00:21:14.680 --> 00:21:15.359
 the feet

00:21:15.359 --> 00:21:16.180
 the eyes

00:21:16.180 --> 00:21:19.480
 what reveals

00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:20.000
 the true

00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:20.579
 condition of

00:21:20.579 --> 00:21:21.180
 our heart

00:21:21.180 --> 00:21:22.819
 is seen

00:21:22.819 --> 00:21:24.099
 very clearly

00:21:24.099 --> 00:21:24.859
 by what comes

00:21:24.859 --> 00:21:25.279
 out of our

00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:25.680
 mouth

00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:28.160
 our choices

00:21:28.160 --> 00:21:28.680
 tell us

00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:29.160
 something

00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:30.779
 but he's

00:21:30.779 --> 00:21:31.559
 like the

00:21:31.559 --> 00:21:32.319
 apostle James

00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:33.000
 and Jesus

00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:33.500
 himself

00:21:33.500 --> 00:21:34.500
 who really

00:21:34.500 --> 00:21:35.240
 focus on the

00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:35.899
 mouth as

00:21:35.899 --> 00:21:36.500
 evidence of

00:21:36.500 --> 00:21:36.799
 what's in

00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:37.339
 our heart

00:21:37.339 --> 00:21:40.599
 so look at

00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:40.799
 all the

00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:41.399
 imagery there

00:21:41.399 --> 00:21:42.319
 their throat

00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:43.500
 is an open

00:21:43.500 --> 00:21:44.180
 grave

00:21:44.180 --> 00:21:47.099
 like it

00:21:47.099 --> 00:21:47.779
 just smells

00:21:47.779 --> 00:21:48.299
 of death

00:21:48.299 --> 00:21:48.819
 in there

00:21:48.819 --> 00:21:50.680
 it produces

00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:51.259
 death

00:21:51.259 --> 00:21:53.079
 they use

00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:53.779
 their tongue

00:21:53.779 --> 00:21:55.339
 to deceive

00:21:55.339 --> 00:21:57.240
 the venom

00:21:57.240 --> 00:21:57.960
 of asps

00:21:57.960 --> 00:21:58.539
 is under

00:21:58.539 --> 00:21:59.180
 their lips

00:21:59.180 --> 00:22:00.519
 their mouth

00:22:00.519 --> 00:22:01.500
 is full

00:22:01.500 --> 00:22:02.480
 of curses

00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:03.220
 and bitterness

00:22:03.220 --> 00:22:05.799
 their feet

00:22:05.799 --> 00:22:06.580
 are swift

00:22:06.580 --> 00:22:07.240
 to shed

00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:07.600
 blood

00:22:07.600 --> 00:22:08.340
 and their

00:22:08.340 --> 00:22:08.880
 paths

00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:09.980
 are ruin

00:22:09.980 --> 00:22:10.460
 and misery

00:22:10.460 --> 00:22:10.820
 and the

00:22:10.820 --> 00:22:11.160
 way of

00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:11.600
 peace

00:22:11.600 --> 00:22:12.600
 they have

00:22:12.600 --> 00:22:13.080
 not known

00:22:13.080 --> 00:22:13.460
 there is

00:22:13.460 --> 00:22:13.960
 no fear

00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:14.440
 of God

00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:14.960
 before their

00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:15.420
 eyes

00:22:15.420 --> 00:22:20.860
 brutal

00:22:20.860 --> 00:22:21.320
 pictures

00:22:21.320 --> 00:22:23.519
 as we

00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:24.080
 compare

00:22:24.080 --> 00:22:25.100
 the words

00:22:25.100 --> 00:22:25.400
 that come

00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:25.660
 out of

00:22:25.660 --> 00:22:26.279
 our mouths

00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:26.620
 to the

00:22:26.620 --> 00:22:27.000
 words that

00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:27.320
 come out

00:22:27.320 --> 00:22:27.920
 of God's

00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:28.200
 mouth

00:22:28.200 --> 00:22:28.680
 we shouldn't

00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:29.080
 compare to

00:22:29.080 --> 00:22:29.420
 one another

00:22:29.420 --> 00:22:29.700
 we need

00:22:29.700 --> 00:22:30.160
 to compare

00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:30.880
 to God

00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:31.680
 his

00:22:31.680 --> 00:22:32.240
 righteousness

00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:35.080
 our state

00:22:35.080 --> 00:22:36.960
 reveals itself

00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:37.860
 so I want

00:22:37.860 --> 00:22:38.360
 to draw on

00:22:38.360 --> 00:22:39.059
 Psalm 19

00:22:39.059 --> 00:22:39.840
 which really

00:22:39.840 --> 00:22:40.660
 just rejoices

00:22:40.660 --> 00:22:41.200
 in God's

00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:41.480
 words

00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:43.220
 God's words

00:22:43.220 --> 00:22:44.160
 are sure

00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:45.120
 and true

00:22:45.120 --> 00:22:46.120
 you can rely

00:22:46.120 --> 00:22:46.660
 on them

00:22:46.660 --> 00:22:50.380
 but do you

00:22:50.380 --> 00:22:51.080
 hold back

00:22:51.080 --> 00:22:51.539
 the whole

00:22:51.539 --> 00:22:52.059
 truth

00:22:52.059 --> 00:22:53.440
 when it

00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:54.140
 benefits you

00:22:54.140 --> 00:23:00.120
 have you

00:23:00.120 --> 00:23:00.580
 been quick

00:23:00.580 --> 00:23:01.080
 to say

00:23:01.080 --> 00:23:01.520
 something

00:23:01.520 --> 00:23:02.900
 if it

00:23:02.900 --> 00:23:03.340
 backs up

00:23:03.340 --> 00:23:03.560
 your

00:23:03.560 --> 00:23:04.020
 argument

00:23:04.020 --> 00:23:05.440
 and you

00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:05.800
 don't really

00:23:05.800 --> 00:23:06.259
 care if

00:23:06.259 --> 00:23:06.680
 it's true

00:23:06.680 --> 00:23:07.120
 or not

00:23:07.120 --> 00:23:10.720
 you'll work

00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:11.020
 that out

00:23:11.020 --> 00:23:11.300
 later

00:23:11.300 --> 00:23:12.540
 you just

00:23:12.540 --> 00:23:12.840
 let it

00:23:12.840 --> 00:23:13.240
 fly

00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:15.880
 God's

00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:16.340
 words

00:23:16.340 --> 00:23:17.840
 are always

00:23:17.840 --> 00:23:18.360
 true

00:23:18.360 --> 00:23:19.120
 and sure

00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:21.959
 God's

00:23:21.959 --> 00:23:22.319
 words

00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:23.119
 revive

00:23:23.119 --> 00:23:23.879
 the soul

00:23:23.879 --> 00:23:27.679
 has

00:23:27.679 --> 00:23:28.219
 poison

00:23:28.219 --> 00:23:29.000
 come out

00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:29.199
 of your

00:23:29.199 --> 00:23:29.559
 mouth

00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:30.299
 recently

00:23:30.299 --> 00:23:31.159
 where

00:23:31.159 --> 00:23:31.479
 someone

00:23:31.479 --> 00:23:31.839
 feels

00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:32.279
 bitten

00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:33.099
 by you

00:23:33.099 --> 00:23:35.059
 aren't

00:23:35.059 --> 00:23:35.500
 there some

00:23:35.500 --> 00:23:36.379
 phrases that

00:23:36.379 --> 00:23:37.139
 just eat

00:23:37.139 --> 00:23:37.759
 away at

00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:38.039
 you

00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:39.119
 like you

00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:39.439
 might have

00:23:39.439 --> 00:23:40.000
 forgiven that

00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:40.599
 person for

00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:41.099
 it but you

00:23:41.099 --> 00:23:42.039
 still remember

00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:42.859
 that exact

00:23:42.859 --> 00:23:43.639
 phrase don't

00:23:43.639 --> 00:23:43.819
 you

00:23:43.819 --> 00:23:45.839
 words can

00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:46.099
 be

00:23:46.099 --> 00:23:47.079
 poison

00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:47.519
 to

00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:48.279
 relationships

00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:52.720
 God's

00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:53.039
 words

00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:53.599
 bring

00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:54.439
 rejoicing

00:23:54.439 --> 00:23:54.819
 to the

00:23:54.819 --> 00:23:55.220
 heart

00:23:55.220 --> 00:23:58.019
 have you

00:23:58.019 --> 00:23:58.879
 used words

00:23:58.879 --> 00:23:59.599
 to make

00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:00.139
 others feel

00:24:00.139 --> 00:24:00.759
 rejected

00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:01.720
 by you

00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:07.039
 our words

00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:08.019
 expose us

00:24:08.019 --> 00:24:09.799
 out of the

00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:10.539
 overflow of

00:24:10.539 --> 00:24:11.059
 the heart

00:24:11.059 --> 00:24:11.539
 the mouth

00:24:11.539 --> 00:24:12.079
 speaks

00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:14.339
 so there

00:24:14.339 --> 00:24:14.879
 might be

00:24:14.879 --> 00:24:15.799
 lots of

00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:16.159
 religion

00:24:16.159 --> 00:24:16.740
 going on

00:24:16.740 --> 00:24:17.240
 lots of

00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:17.759
 rituals

00:24:17.759 --> 00:24:18.199
 happening

00:24:18.199 --> 00:24:18.740
 but our

00:24:18.740 --> 00:24:19.240
 words

00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:20.019
 our flesh

00:24:20.019 --> 00:24:21.220
 shows what's

00:24:21.220 --> 00:24:21.759
 really going

00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:22.460
 on in the

00:24:22.460 --> 00:24:22.939
 condition of

00:24:22.939 --> 00:24:23.419
 our heart

00:24:23.419 --> 00:24:26.079
 man might

00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:26.460
 look at the

00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:27.059
 outside but

00:24:27.059 --> 00:24:27.659
 God looks at

00:24:27.659 --> 00:24:28.099
 the heart

00:24:28.099 --> 00:24:31.119
 and ruin

00:24:31.119 --> 00:24:31.980
 relationships

00:24:31.980 --> 00:24:33.240
 misery

00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:34.199
 doing harm

00:24:34.199 --> 00:24:34.559
 to one

00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:34.819
 another

00:24:34.819 --> 00:24:35.339
 lack of

00:24:35.339 --> 00:24:35.819
 peace

00:24:35.819 --> 00:24:37.500
 if we look

00:24:37.500 --> 00:24:38.039
 back on our

00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:39.220
 lives we can

00:24:39.220 --> 00:24:39.579
 see the

00:24:39.579 --> 00:24:40.159
 carnage

00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:42.460
 we do

00:24:42.460 --> 00:24:43.240
 violence with

00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:43.820
 our words

00:24:43.820 --> 00:24:46.700
 and this

00:24:46.700 --> 00:24:47.380
 all comes

00:24:47.380 --> 00:24:47.800
 we're told

00:24:47.800 --> 00:24:48.460
 verse 18

00:24:48.460 --> 00:24:49.960
 there's a

00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:50.320
 lack of

00:24:50.320 --> 00:24:50.800
 fear of

00:24:50.800 --> 00:24:51.440
 God before

00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:52.100
 our eyes

00:24:52.100 --> 00:24:55.340
 so fear of

00:24:55.340 --> 00:24:55.900
 God is to

00:24:55.900 --> 00:24:56.200
 live in

00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:56.759
 awe of

00:24:56.759 --> 00:24:57.040
 him

00:24:57.040 --> 00:24:59.040
 utter

00:24:59.040 --> 00:24:59.759
 respect

00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:00.580
 utter

00:25:00.580 --> 00:25:01.200
 worship

00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:03.660
 but our

00:25:03.660 --> 00:25:04.400
 words that

00:25:04.400 --> 00:25:05.720
 spew out of

00:25:05.720 --> 00:25:06.380
 our mouth

00:25:06.380 --> 00:25:07.779
 show that

00:25:07.779 --> 00:25:08.559
 we aren't

00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:09.000
 worshipping

00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:09.359
 God

00:25:09.359 --> 00:25:10.220
 otherwise

00:25:10.220 --> 00:25:11.220
 like James

00:25:11.220 --> 00:25:11.680
 says we

00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:11.980
 would be

00:25:11.980 --> 00:25:12.500
 blessing

00:25:12.500 --> 00:25:13.539
 people

00:25:13.539 --> 00:25:13.960
 how can

00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:14.759
 blessing and

00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:15.720
 curses come

00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:16.139
 out of the

00:25:16.139 --> 00:25:16.720
 same mouth

00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:19.899
 rather than

00:25:19.899 --> 00:25:20.559
 worship of

00:25:20.559 --> 00:25:21.319
 God being the

00:25:21.319 --> 00:25:22.180
 principle of

00:25:22.180 --> 00:25:22.700
 our life

00:25:22.700 --> 00:25:23.819
 always before

00:25:23.819 --> 00:25:24.420
 our eyes

00:25:24.420 --> 00:25:25.119
 everything we

00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:25.740
 see everything

00:25:25.740 --> 00:25:26.940
 we do

00:25:26.940 --> 00:25:28.139
 through that

00:25:28.139 --> 00:25:28.799
 lens of the

00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:29.279
 worship of

00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:29.579
 God

00:25:29.579 --> 00:25:33.920
 we live

00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:34.420
 lives our

00:25:34.420 --> 00:25:34.960
 own way

00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:37.860
 all Jew

00:25:37.860 --> 00:25:38.480
 and non Jew

00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:38.980
 are under

00:25:38.980 --> 00:25:39.380
 sin

00:25:39.380 --> 00:25:42.680
 and so we

00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:43.500
 come back to

00:25:43.500 --> 00:25:44.240
 that question

00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:44.819
 all this

00:25:44.819 --> 00:25:45.600
 religion going

00:25:45.600 --> 00:25:46.220
 on in the

00:25:46.220 --> 00:25:47.059
 world and

00:25:47.059 --> 00:25:47.500
 in people's

00:25:47.500 --> 00:25:48.299
 lives why

00:25:48.299 --> 00:25:49.039
 is that not

00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:49.740
 seeking God

00:25:49.740 --> 00:25:51.960
 why is that

00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:52.860
 not good

00:25:52.860 --> 00:25:53.240
 enough

00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:57.319
 verse 20

00:25:57.319 --> 00:25:58.440
 for by works

00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:59.100
 of the law

00:25:59.100 --> 00:26:01.039
 no human

00:26:01.039 --> 00:26:02.000
 being will

00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:02.740
 be justified

00:26:02.740 --> 00:26:03.880
 in his

00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:04.259
 sight

00:26:04.259 --> 00:26:07.759
 if you

00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:08.420
 did God's

00:26:08.420 --> 00:26:08.720
 law

00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:10.240
 God's

00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:10.559
 law is

00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:10.980
 good

00:26:10.980 --> 00:26:11.720
 it's good

00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:12.119
 to do

00:26:12.119 --> 00:26:12.400
 God's

00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:12.740
 law of

00:26:12.740 --> 00:26:13.019
 course

00:26:13.019 --> 00:26:14.400
 but thinking

00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:14.920
 it's by

00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:15.400
 your own

00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:15.900
 efforts

00:26:15.900 --> 00:26:17.619
 thinking

00:26:17.619 --> 00:26:18.400
 that you

00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:18.799
 are doing

00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:19.079
 what's

00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:19.359
 right

00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:20.160
 that that's

00:26:20.160 --> 00:26:20.759
 the basis

00:26:20.759 --> 00:26:21.119
 of your

00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:21.420
 goodness

00:26:21.420 --> 00:26:21.879
 that's

00:26:21.879 --> 00:26:22.579
 man-made

00:26:22.579 --> 00:26:22.980
 religion

00:26:22.980 --> 00:26:23.299
 that's

00:26:23.299 --> 00:26:23.779
 like trying

00:26:23.779 --> 00:26:24.319
 to climb

00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:24.740
 a ladder

00:26:24.740 --> 00:26:25.240
 up to

00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:25.599
 God

00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:28.000
 but true

00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:28.619
 religion is

00:26:28.619 --> 00:26:29.240
 taking God

00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:29.519
 at his

00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:29.879
 word

00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:33.120
 I think

00:26:33.120 --> 00:26:33.680
 Paul is

00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:34.420
 playing with

00:26:34.420 --> 00:26:34.780
 the word

00:26:34.780 --> 00:26:35.380
 flesh

00:26:35.380 --> 00:26:35.860
 here

00:26:35.860 --> 00:26:37.460
 so in

00:26:37.460 --> 00:26:37.980
 verse 20

00:26:37.980 --> 00:26:38.680
 by works

00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:39.180
 the law

00:26:39.180 --> 00:26:39.840
 no human

00:26:39.840 --> 00:26:40.320
 being

00:26:40.320 --> 00:26:42.140
 that is

00:26:42.140 --> 00:26:42.440
 literally

00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:43.360
 no flesh

00:26:43.360 --> 00:26:43.780
 will be

00:26:43.780 --> 00:26:44.260
 justified

00:26:44.260 --> 00:26:44.920
 in his

00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:45.260
 sight

00:26:45.260 --> 00:26:45.920
 I think

00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:46.340
 he's playing

00:26:46.340 --> 00:26:46.640
 with that

00:26:46.640 --> 00:26:46.960
 word

00:26:46.960 --> 00:26:48.120
 you're putting

00:26:48.120 --> 00:26:49.020
 confidence in

00:26:49.020 --> 00:26:49.480
 yourself

00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:50.020
 your own

00:26:50.020 --> 00:26:50.480
 flesh

00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:51.520
 your own

00:26:51.520 --> 00:26:51.940
 goodness

00:26:51.940 --> 00:26:52.380
 what you

00:26:52.380 --> 00:26:53.000
 can achieve

00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:53.800
 but look

00:26:53.800 --> 00:26:54.060
 at your

00:26:54.060 --> 00:26:54.460
 flesh

00:26:54.460 --> 00:26:54.800
 it is

00:26:54.800 --> 00:26:55.400
 producing

00:26:55.400 --> 00:26:57.240
 things that

00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:57.600
 God

00:26:57.600 --> 00:26:58.660
 doesn't

00:26:58.660 --> 00:26:59.019
 do

00:26:59.019 --> 00:27:03.519
 you might

00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:04.320
 be very

00:27:04.320 --> 00:27:04.740
 religious

00:27:04.740 --> 00:27:05.080
 on the

00:27:05.080 --> 00:27:05.500
 outside

00:27:05.500 --> 00:27:06.240
 but your

00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:06.780
 flesh

00:27:06.780 --> 00:27:07.660
 betrays

00:27:07.660 --> 00:27:07.880
 you

00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:08.500
 your

00:27:08.500 --> 00:27:09.000
 words

00:27:09.000 --> 00:27:10.019
 show the

00:27:10.019 --> 00:27:10.420
 character

00:27:10.420 --> 00:27:11.040
 of what's

00:27:11.040 --> 00:27:11.740
 going on

00:27:11.740 --> 00:27:13.700
 that's

00:27:13.700 --> 00:27:14.060
 because

00:27:14.060 --> 00:27:14.480
 our

00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:14.800
 flesh

00:27:14.800 --> 00:27:15.200
 is under

00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:15.380
 the

00:27:15.380 --> 00:27:15.860
 control

00:27:15.860 --> 00:27:16.120
 of

00:27:16.120 --> 00:27:16.400
 sin

00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:21.140
 the

00:27:21.140 --> 00:27:21.460
 law

00:27:21.460 --> 00:27:21.660
 of

00:27:21.660 --> 00:27:22.019
 Moses

00:27:22.019 --> 00:27:22.280
 the

00:27:22.280 --> 00:27:22.519
 ten

00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:23.000
 commandments

00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:23.460
 and so

00:27:23.460 --> 00:27:23.620
 on

00:27:23.620 --> 00:27:24.560
 they were

00:27:24.560 --> 00:27:24.880
 never

00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:25.300
 meant

00:27:25.300 --> 00:27:26.240
 to be

00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:26.780
 a ladder

00:27:26.780 --> 00:27:27.220
 up to

00:27:27.220 --> 00:27:27.540
 God

00:27:27.540 --> 00:27:28.960
 even

00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:29.300
 at the

00:27:29.300 --> 00:27:29.640
 moment

00:27:29.640 --> 00:27:29.980
 of

00:27:29.980 --> 00:27:30.260
 God

00:27:30.260 --> 00:27:30.580
 giving

00:27:30.580 --> 00:27:30.780
 the

00:27:30.780 --> 00:27:31.020
 law

00:27:31.020 --> 00:27:31.400
 like

00:27:31.400 --> 00:27:31.520
 I've

00:27:31.520 --> 00:27:31.700
 already

00:27:31.700 --> 00:27:32.000
 said

00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:32.860
 Israel

00:27:32.860 --> 00:27:33.140
 was

00:27:33.140 --> 00:27:33.620
 breaking

00:27:33.620 --> 00:27:33.860
 the

00:27:33.860 --> 00:27:34.040
 law

00:27:34.040 --> 00:27:34.560
 worshipping

00:27:34.560 --> 00:27:34.800
 other

00:27:34.800 --> 00:27:35.200
 gods

00:27:35.200 --> 00:27:36.920
 people

00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:37.340
 could

00:27:37.340 --> 00:27:37.600
 not

00:27:37.600 --> 00:27:37.900
 keep

00:27:37.900 --> 00:27:38.100
 the

00:27:38.100 --> 00:27:38.300
 law

00:27:38.300 --> 00:27:38.840
 obeying

00:27:38.840 --> 00:27:39.020
 the

00:27:39.020 --> 00:27:39.300
 law

00:27:39.300 --> 00:27:40.020
 is

00:27:40.020 --> 00:27:40.420
 good

00:27:40.420 --> 00:27:41.360
 it

00:27:41.360 --> 00:27:41.620
 gives

00:27:41.620 --> 00:27:42.300
 expression

00:27:42.300 --> 00:27:42.640
 to what

00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:42.920
 God's

00:27:42.920 --> 00:27:43.260
 character

00:27:43.260 --> 00:27:43.480
 is

00:27:43.480 --> 00:27:43.800
 like

00:27:43.800 --> 00:27:44.040
 but

00:27:44.040 --> 00:27:44.820
 it

00:27:44.820 --> 00:27:45.420
 never

00:27:45.420 --> 00:27:46.000
 made

00:27:46.000 --> 00:27:46.140
 it

00:27:46.140 --> 00:27:46.500
 possible

00:27:46.500 --> 00:27:47.960
 to

00:27:47.960 --> 00:27:48.120
 be

00:27:48.120 --> 00:27:48.500
 acceptable

00:27:48.500 --> 00:27:48.760
 to

00:27:48.760 --> 00:27:49.020
 God

00:27:49.020 --> 00:27:50.280
 the

00:27:50.280 --> 00:27:50.600
 law

00:27:50.600 --> 00:27:50.860
 could

00:27:50.860 --> 00:27:51.200
 never

00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:51.780
 save

00:27:51.780 --> 00:27:51.980
 us

00:27:51.980 --> 00:27:52.180
 from

00:27:52.180 --> 00:27:52.360
 the

00:27:52.360 --> 00:27:52.880
 controlling

00:27:52.880 --> 00:27:53.340
 power

00:27:53.340 --> 00:27:53.740
 of sin

00:27:53.740 --> 00:27:54.040
 in our

00:27:54.040 --> 00:27:54.400
 lives

00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:58.620
 what the

00:27:58.620 --> 00:27:58.800
 law

00:27:58.800 --> 00:27:59.440
 could do

00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:00.519
 is show

00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:01.519
 sin

00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:02.440
 comes the

00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:02.940
 knowledge

00:28:02.940 --> 00:28:03.640
 of sin

00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:05.980
 now

00:28:05.980 --> 00:28:06.800
 I think

00:28:06.800 --> 00:28:07.000
 we

00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:08.259
 my gut

00:28:08.259 --> 00:28:08.700
 instinct

00:28:08.700 --> 00:28:09.220
 my gut

00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:09.580
 instinct

00:28:09.580 --> 00:28:09.920
 is to

00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:10.280
 take that

00:28:10.280 --> 00:28:10.720
 negatively

00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:11.580
 that

00:28:11.580 --> 00:28:12.680
 to be

00:28:12.680 --> 00:28:13.220
 shown our

00:28:13.220 --> 00:28:13.660
 sin is a

00:28:13.660 --> 00:28:13.860
 negative

00:28:13.860 --> 00:28:14.080
 thing

00:28:14.080 --> 00:28:14.580
 but I

00:28:14.580 --> 00:28:15.040
 think that's

00:28:15.040 --> 00:28:15.820
 further

00:28:15.820 --> 00:28:16.580
 grace of

00:28:16.580 --> 00:28:16.820
 God

00:28:16.820 --> 00:28:17.100
 to be

00:28:17.100 --> 00:28:17.660
 shown our

00:28:17.660 --> 00:28:17.840
 sin

00:28:17.840 --> 00:28:18.580
 the Jewish

00:28:18.580 --> 00:28:19.080
 people should

00:28:19.080 --> 00:28:19.280
 have been

00:28:19.279 --> 00:28:19.960
 the first

00:28:19.960 --> 00:28:20.319
 to go

00:28:20.319 --> 00:28:21.099
 I need

00:28:21.099 --> 00:28:21.500

00:28:22.940 --> 00:28:23.440
 my

00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:23.899
 flesh

00:28:23.899 --> 00:28:24.399
 can't

00:28:24.399 --> 00:28:24.660
 keep

00:28:24.660 --> 00:28:24.859
 the

00:28:24.859 --> 00:28:25.180
 law

00:28:25.180 --> 00:28:25.740
 I

00:28:25.740 --> 00:28:26.200
 need

 to

00:29:46.540 --> 00:29:46.800
 God

 have

00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:53.539
 nothing

00:29:53.539 --> 00:29:53.759
 to

00:29:53.759 --> 00:29:54.099
 say

00:29:54.099 --> 00:29:55.740
 there

00:29:55.740 --> 00:29:56.099
 will

00:29:56.099 --> 00:29:56.220
 just

00:29:56.220 --> 00:29:56.379
 be

00:29:56.379 --> 00:29:57.019
 silence

00:29:57.019 --> 00:30:03.960
 guilty

00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:11.039
 you've

00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:11.259
 not

00:30:11.259 --> 00:30:11.740
 lived up

00:30:11.740 --> 00:30:12.079
 to my

00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:12.439
 righteous

00:30:12.439 --> 00:30:12.980
 character

00:30:12.980 --> 00:30:17.439
 now I

00:30:17.439 --> 00:30:17.839
 know this

00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:18.299
 is heavy

00:30:18.299 --> 00:30:20.039
 I

00:30:20.039 --> 00:30:20.259
 can

00:30:20.259 --> 00:30:20.639
 feel

00:30:20.639 --> 00:30:20.839
 the

00:30:20.839 --> 00:30:21.159
 room

00:30:21.159 --> 00:30:23.639
 maybe

00:30:23.639 --> 00:30:23.980
 that's

00:30:23.980 --> 00:30:24.079
 the

00:30:24.079 --> 00:30:24.240
 way

00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:24.359
 I'm

00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:24.680
 presenting

00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:24.879
 it

00:30:24.879 --> 00:30:25.019
 but

00:30:25.019 --> 00:30:25.299
 maybe

00:30:25.299 --> 00:30:25.480
 it's

00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:25.619
 just

00:30:25.619 --> 00:30:25.799
 the

00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:26.039
 weight

00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:26.200
 of

00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:27.279
 well

00:30:27.279 --> 00:30:29.259
 this

00:30:29.259 --> 00:30:29.399
 is

00:30:29.399 --> 00:30:29.779
 heavy

00:30:29.779 --> 00:30:34.980
 none

00:30:34.980 --> 00:30:35.240
 of us

00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:35.500
 have a

00:30:35.500 --> 00:30:35.680
 leg

00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:35.859
 to

00:30:36.099 --> 00:30:36.379
 on

00:30:36.379 --> 00:30:40.980
 that's

00:31:16.039 --> 00:31:16.420
 repent

00:31:16.420 --> 00:31:19.019
 as

00:31:19.019 --> 00:31:19.720
 brutal

00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:19.980
 and

 they're

 not

 main

00:31:27.080 --> 00:31:27.560
 preliminary

00:31:27.560 --> 00:31:29.800
 they're

00:31:29.800 --> 00:31:30.380
 preparing

00:31:30.380 --> 00:31:30.779
 us

00:31:30.779 --> 00:31:32.360
 if you

00:31:32.360 --> 00:31:32.720
 bypass

00:31:32.720 --> 00:31:33.100
 it

00:31:33.100 --> 00:31:33.420
 you'll

00:31:33.420 --> 00:31:33.640
 miss

 the

 main

00:31:35.700 --> 00:31:36.100
 need

00:31:36.100 --> 00:31:36.240
 to

00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:36.460
 hear

00:31:36.460 --> 00:31:36.960
 this

00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:39.940
 but it's

00:31:39.940 --> 00:31:40.420
 preparing

00:31:40.420 --> 00:31:40.740
 us

00:31:40.740 --> 00:31:41.019
 for the

 main

00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:41.600
 point

00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:44.579
 and I

00:31:44.579 --> 00:31:44.879
 just want

00:31:44.879 --> 00:31:45.199
 to give

00:31:45.199 --> 00:31:46.559
 we'll

00:31:46.559 --> 00:31:47.000
 focus

00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:47.299
 on the

00:31:47.299 --> 00:31:47.500
 main

00:31:47.500 --> 00:31:47.879
 point

00:31:47.879 --> 00:31:49.519
 the

00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:50.019
 delightful

00:31:50.019 --> 00:31:50.439
 passage

00:31:50.439 --> 00:31:50.819
 next

00:31:50.819 --> 00:31:51.139
 week

00:31:51.139 --> 00:31:52.480
 from

 verse

00:31:52.879 --> 00:31:53.419
 21

00:31:53.419 --> 00:31:54.279
 that

00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:54.740
 paragraph

00:31:54.740 --> 00:31:55.099
 there

00:31:55.099 --> 00:31:55.779
 but I

00:31:55.779 --> 00:31:57.079
 feel like

00:31:57.079 --> 00:31:57.399
 I need

00:31:57.399 --> 00:31:57.659
 to give

00:31:57.659 --> 00:31:58.000
 a sneak

00:31:58.000 --> 00:31:58.379
 preview

00:31:58.379 --> 00:31:58.619
 this

00:31:58.619 --> 00:31:58.959
 morning

00:31:58.959 --> 00:32:01.240
 the

00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:01.759
 question

00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:02.159
 at this

00:32:02.159 --> 00:32:02.519
 point

00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:03.199
 isn't

00:32:03.199 --> 00:32:03.379
 what

00:32:03.379 --> 00:32:03.699
 people

00:32:03.699 --> 00:32:04.059
 often

00:32:04.059 --> 00:32:04.379
 say

00:32:04.379 --> 00:32:04.719
 how

00:32:04.719 --> 00:32:04.959
 can

00:32:04.959 --> 00:32:05.179
 God

00:32:05.179 --> 00:32:05.359
 be

00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:05.659
 loving

00:32:05.659 --> 00:32:05.919
 and

00:32:05.919 --> 00:32:06.119
 send

00:32:06.119 --> 00:32:06.399
 people

00:32:06.399 --> 00:32:06.579
 to

00:32:06.579 --> 00:32:06.839
 hell

00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:08.179
 that's

00:32:08.179 --> 00:32:08.319
 not

00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:08.459
 the

00:32:08.459 --> 00:32:08.779
 question

00:32:08.779 --> 00:32:09.119
 that's

00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:09.240
 a

00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:09.500
 man

00:32:09.500 --> 00:32:10.000
 centred

00:32:10.000 --> 00:32:10.959
 question

00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:12.019
 if

00:32:12.019 --> 00:32:12.960
 we

00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:13.360
 listen

00:32:13.360 --> 00:32:13.519
 to

00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:13.720
 these

00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:14.140
 chapters

00:32:14.140 --> 00:32:15.039
 we're

00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:15.279
 all

00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:15.840
 exposed

00:32:15.840 --> 00:32:17.940
 that's

00:32:17.940 --> 00:32:18.100
 not

00:32:18.100 --> 00:32:18.259
 the

00:35:38.220 --> 00:35:39.780
 have

00:35:39.780 --> 00:35:40.400
 ammunition

00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:40.860
 to go

00:35:40.860 --> 00:35:41.539
 I'm

00:35:41.539 --> 00:35:42.599
 head

00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:42.760
 and

 shoulders

00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:43.360
 above

00:35:43.860 --> 00:35:44.740
 I'm

00:35:44.740 --> 00:35:45.340
 quite

00:35:45.340 --> 00:35:45.519
 a

 godly

00:35:45.780 --> 00:35:46.220

00:35:46.220 --> 00:35:46.820
 I

00:35:46.820 --> 00:35:47.079
 think

00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:47.260
 it's

00:35:47.260 --> 00:35:47.680
 languages

00:35:47.680 --> 00:35:48.180
 I

00:35:48.180 --> 00:35:48.380
 think

00:35:48.380 --> 00:35:48.780
 we can

00:35:48.780 --> 00:35:49.280
 boast

00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:50.720
 in

00:35:50.720 --> 00:35:51.220
 languages

00:35:51.220 --> 00:35:51.700
 it's

00:35:51.700 --> 00:35:51.920
 almost

00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:52.200
 like

00:35:52.200 --> 00:35:52.440
 someone

00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:52.640
 at

00:35:52.640 --> 00:35:53.340
 Bible

00:35:53.340 --> 00:35:53.660
 study

00:35:53.660 --> 00:35:54.300
 going

00:35:54.300 --> 00:35:54.740
 well

00:35:54.740 --> 00:35:55.599
 the

00:35:55.599 --> 00:35:55.840
 Greek

00:35:55.840 --> 00:35:56.260
 says

00:35:56.260 --> 00:35:58.559
 somehow

00:35:58.559 --> 00:35:59.059
 the

00:35:59.059 --> 00:35:59.500
 languages

00:35:59.500 --> 00:36:00.380
 we use

00:36:00.380 --> 00:36:00.880
 this

00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:02.180
 image

00:36:02.180 --> 00:36:02.559
 of

00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:03.800
 being

00:36:03.800 --> 00:36:04.360
 godly

00:36:04.360 --> 00:36:04.579
 and

00:36:04.579 --> 00:36:05.519
 superior

00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:07.539
 anyway

00:36:07.539 --> 00:36:07.880
 that's

00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:08.119
 all

00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:08.900
 to say

00:36:08.900 --> 00:36:09.220
 that

00:36:09.220 --> 00:36:09.820
 just

00:36:09.820 --> 00:36:10.140
 before

00:36:10.140 --> 00:36:10.320
 we

00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:10.460
 did

00:36:10.460 --> 00:36:10.660
 this

00:36:10.660 --> 00:36:11.059
 exam

00:36:11.059 --> 00:36:11.340
 my

00:36:11.340 --> 00:36:11.700
 lecturer

00:36:11.700 --> 00:36:12.200
 prayed

00:36:12.200 --> 00:36:14.720
 about

00:36:14.720 --> 00:36:15.680
 us

00:36:15.680 --> 00:36:15.900
 being

00:36:15.900 --> 00:36:16.420
 sinful

00:36:16.420 --> 00:36:17.220
 and

00:36:17.220 --> 00:36:17.840
 just

00:36:17.840 --> 00:36:18.380
 totally

00:36:18.380 --> 00:36:19.019
 accepted

00:36:19.019 --> 00:36:19.619
 by the

00:36:19.619 --> 00:36:19.800
 blood

00:36:19.800 --> 00:36:19.980
 of

00:36:19.980 --> 00:36:20.280
 Jesus

00:36:20.280 --> 00:36:21.220
 and

00:36:21.220 --> 00:36:21.680
 this

00:36:21.680 --> 00:36:22.240
 exam

00:36:22.240 --> 00:36:23.599
 wouldn't

00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:24.019
 change

00:36:24.019 --> 00:36:24.340
 that

00:36:24.340 --> 00:36:24.940
 I

00:36:24.940 --> 00:36:25.180
 wouldn't

00:36:25.180 --> 00:36:25.380
 add

00:36:25.380 --> 00:36:25.680
 to it

00:36:25.680 --> 00:36:25.900
 wouldn't

00:36:25.900 --> 00:36:26.099
 take

00:36:26.099 --> 00:36:26.340
 away

00:36:26.340 --> 00:36:26.559
 from

00:36:26.559 --> 00:36:26.780
 that

00:36:26.780 --> 00:36:27.960
 it

00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:29.680
 just

00:36:29.680 --> 00:36:30.320
 was

00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:30.600
 one of

00:36:30.600 --> 00:36:30.940
 those

00:36:30.940 --> 00:36:31.720
 aha

00:36:31.720 --> 00:36:32.300
 moments

00:36:32.300 --> 00:36:32.660
 one of

00:36:32.660 --> 00:36:33.019
 those

00:36:33.019 --> 00:36:34.080
 moments

00:36:34.080 --> 00:36:34.360
 where I

00:36:34.360 --> 00:36:34.519
 just

00:36:34.519 --> 00:36:34.740
 felt

00:36:34.740 --> 00:36:35.300
 peace

00:36:35.300 --> 00:36:37.620
 I

00:36:37.620 --> 00:36:37.860
 didn't

00:36:37.860 --> 00:36:38.280
 realise

00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:38.460
 it

00:36:38.460 --> 00:36:38.640
 but

00:36:38.640 --> 00:36:39.200
 I

00:36:39.200 --> 00:36:39.400
 think

00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:39.519
 there

00:36:39.519 --> 00:36:39.620
 was

00:36:39.620 --> 00:36:39.820
 just

00:36:39.820 --> 00:36:40.420
 within

00:36:40.420 --> 00:36:40.680
 me

00:36:40.680 --> 00:36:40.920
 this

00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:41.580
 competition

00:36:41.580 --> 00:36:41.960
 like

00:36:41.960 --> 00:36:43.060
 my

00:36:43.060 --> 00:36:43.580
 image

00:36:43.580 --> 00:36:43.820
 of

00:36:43.820 --> 00:36:44.100
 being

00:36:44.100 --> 00:36:44.260
 a

00:36:44.260 --> 00:36:44.480
 Bible

00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:44.820
 college

00:36:44.820 --> 00:36:45.280
 student

00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:46.120
 whatever

00:36:46.120 --> 00:36:46.720
 godliness

00:36:46.720 --> 00:36:47.040
 I've

00:36:47.040 --> 00:36:47.300
 wrapped

00:36:47.300 --> 00:36:47.640
 up

00:36:47.640 --> 00:36:47.800
 in

00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:48.060
 this

00:36:48.060 --> 00:36:48.620
 Greek

00:36:48.620 --> 00:36:49.100
 exam

00:36:49.100 --> 00:36:49.900
 suddenly

00:36:49.900 --> 00:36:50.100
 it

00:36:50.100 --> 00:36:50.340
 just

00:36:50.340 --> 00:36:51.460
 that's

00:36:51.460 --> 00:36:51.660
 not

00:36:51.660 --> 00:36:52.200
 important

00:36:52.200 --> 00:36:54.540
 I'm

00:36:54.540 --> 00:36:54.800
 loved

00:36:54.800 --> 00:36:55.040
 by

00:36:55.040 --> 00:36:55.480
 God

00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:56.220
 because

00:36:56.219 --> 00:36:56.559
 of what

00:36:56.559 --> 00:36:56.859
 Jesus

00:36:56.859 --> 00:36:57.099
 has

00:36:57.099 --> 00:36:57.359
 done

00:36:57.359 --> 00:36:59.699
 it

00:36:59.699 --> 00:37:00.139
 strips

00:37:00.139 --> 00:37:00.480
 away

00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:01.079
 pride

00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:02.539
 it

00:37:02.539 --> 00:37:02.859
 strips

00:37:02.859 --> 00:37:03.199
 away

00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:03.799
 fear

00:37:03.799 --> 00:37:04.099
 and

00:37:04.099 --> 00:37:04.679
 shame

00:37:04.679 --> 00:37:06.500
 I'm

00:37:06.500 --> 00:37:07.059
 totally

00:37:07.059 --> 00:37:07.379
 loved

00:37:07.379 --> 00:37:07.599
 by

00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:07.959
 God

00:37:07.959 --> 00:37:09.139
 I

00:37:09.139 --> 00:37:09.379
 think

00:37:09.379 --> 00:37:09.500
 it

00:37:09.500 --> 00:37:09.739
 even

00:37:09.739 --> 00:37:10.839
 produced

00:37:10.839 --> 00:37:12.059
 unity

00:37:12.059 --> 00:37:12.379
 in the

00:37:12.379 --> 00:37:12.859
 class

00:37:12.859 --> 00:37:14.199
 people

00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:14.539
 actually

00:37:14.539 --> 00:37:14.759
 wanted

00:37:14.759 --> 00:37:15.139
 to help

00:37:15.139 --> 00:37:15.339
 each

00:37:15.339 --> 00:37:15.539
 other

00:37:15.539 --> 00:37:15.859
 rather

00:37:15.859 --> 00:37:16.059
 than

00:37:16.059 --> 00:37:16.559
 compete

00:37:16.559 --> 00:37:20.559
 I

00:37:20.559 --> 00:37:20.739
 just

00:37:20.739 --> 00:37:21.339
 wanted

00:37:21.339 --> 00:37:21.739
 to

00:37:21.739 --> 00:37:21.939
 give

00:37:21.939 --> 00:37:22.079
 a

00:37:22.079 --> 00:37:22.519
 snapshot

00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:22.819
 that

00:37:22.819 --> 00:37:22.959
 the

00:37:22.959 --> 00:37:23.339
 gospel

00:37:23.339 --> 00:37:25.139
 works

00:37:25.139 --> 00:37:26.879
 only

00:37:26.879 --> 00:37:27.079
 the

00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:27.359
 gospel

00:37:27.359 --> 00:37:27.599
 can

00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:28.119
 produce

00:37:28.119 --> 00:37:28.379
 this

00:37:28.379 --> 00:37:28.579
 kind

00:37:28.579 --> 00:37:28.699
 of

00:37:28.699 --> 00:37:29.019
 fruit

00:37:29.019 --> 00:37:30.019
 of

00:37:30.019 --> 00:37:30.619
 peace

00:37:30.619 --> 00:37:31.779
 of

00:37:31.779 --> 00:37:32.379
 humility

00:37:32.379 --> 00:37:34.339
 of

00:37:34.339 --> 00:37:34.839
 unity

00:37:34.839 --> 00:37:36.859
 I

00:37:36.859 --> 00:37:37.079
 really

00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:37.400
 like

00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:37.619
 Tim

00:37:37.619 --> 00:37:38.259
 Keller's

00:37:38.259 --> 00:37:39.259
 quote

00:37:39.259 --> 00:37:39.500
 it's

00:37:39.500 --> 00:37:39.940
 memorable

00:37:39.940 --> 00:37:40.379
 it's

00:37:40.379 --> 00:37:40.559
 worth

00:37:40.559 --> 00:37:41.139
 memorizing

00:37:41.139 --> 00:37:41.339
 I

00:37:41.339 --> 00:37:41.579
 think

00:37:41.579 --> 00:37:43.299
 the

00:37:43.299 --> 00:37:43.759
 gospel

00:37:43.759 --> 00:37:44.339
 says

00:37:44.339 --> 00:37:45.199
 you

00:37:45.199 --> 00:37:45.379
 are

00:37:45.379 --> 00:37:45.859
 more

00:37:45.859 --> 00:37:46.599
 sinful

00:37:46.599 --> 00:37:46.980
 and

00:37:46.980 --> 00:37:47.460
 flawed

00:37:47.460 --> 00:37:48.659
 than

00:37:48.659 --> 00:37:48.819
 you

00:37:48.819 --> 00:37:49.079
 ever

00:37:49.079 --> 00:37:49.400
 dared

00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:49.940
 believe

00:37:49.940 --> 00:37:51.599
 but

00:37:51.599 --> 00:37:51.900
 more

00:37:51.900 --> 00:37:52.559
 accepted

00:37:52.559 --> 00:37:52.920
 and

00:37:52.920 --> 00:37:53.279
 loved

00:37:53.279 --> 00:37:53.639
 than

00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:53.779
 you

00:37:53.779 --> 00:37:54.139
 ever

00:37:54.139 --> 00:37:54.440
 dared

00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:54.779
 hope

00:37:54.780 --> 00:37:57.240
 it

00:37:57.240 --> 00:37:57.440
 gives

00:37:57.440 --> 00:37:57.540
 you

00:37:57.540 --> 00:37:57.740
 that

00:37:57.740 --> 00:37:58.320
 humility

00:37:58.320 --> 00:37:59.740
 and

00:37:59.740 --> 00:37:59.940
 that

00:37:59.940 --> 00:38:00.500
 full

00:38:00.500 --> 00:38:01.100
 acceptance

00:38:01.100 --> 00:38:01.440
 and

00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:01.820
 peace

00:38:01.820 --> 00:38:02.440
 at

00:38:02.440 --> 00:38:02.560
 the

00:38:02.560 --> 00:38:02.740
 same

00:38:02.740 --> 00:38:03.120
 time

00:38:03.120 --> 00:38:03.400
 only

00:38:03.400 --> 00:38:03.560
 the

00:38:03.560 --> 00:38:03.780
 gospel

00:38:03.780 --> 00:38:04.019
 can

00:38:04.019 --> 00:38:04.140
 do

00:38:04.140 --> 00:38:04.400
 that

00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:08.519
 the

00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:08.780
 gospel

00:38:08.780 --> 00:38:09.100
 says

00:38:09.100 --> 00:38:09.260
 my

00:38:09.260 --> 00:38:09.920
 fundamental

00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:10.480
 identity

00:38:10.480 --> 00:38:11.060
 is

00:38:11.060 --> 00:38:11.420
 loved

00:38:11.420 --> 00:38:11.680
 by

00:38:11.680 --> 00:38:12.040
 God

00:38:12.040 --> 00:38:12.640
 whatever

00:38:12.640 --> 00:38:13.180
 else

00:38:13.180 --> 00:38:13.720
 changes

00:38:13.720 --> 00:38:14.740
 that

00:38:14.740 --> 00:38:15.100
 remains

00:38:15.100 --> 00:38:15.240
 the

00:38:15.240 --> 00:38:15.420
 same

00:38:15.420 --> 00:38:15.680
 because

00:38:15.680 --> 00:38:15.940
 it's

00:38:15.940 --> 00:38:16.300
 based

00:38:16.300 --> 00:38:16.620
 on

00:38:16.620 --> 00:38:16.900
 his

00:38:16.900 --> 00:38:17.380
 grace

00:38:17.380 --> 00:38:18.200
 not

00:38:18.200 --> 00:38:18.380
 in

00:38:18.380 --> 00:38:18.660
 my

00:38:18.660 --> 00:38:19.800
 flesh

00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:20.180
 my

00:38:20.180 --> 00:38:20.560
 works

00:38:20.559 --> 00:38:24.500
 so

00:38:24.500 --> 00:38:24.739
 will

00:38:24.739 --> 00:38:24.940
 you

00:38:24.940 --> 00:38:25.239
 pin

 your

 forever

00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:28.079

 own

00:38:28.500 --> 00:38:29.000
 flesh

00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:30.279
 what

00:38:30.279 --> 00:38:30.440
 you

00:38:30.440 --> 00:38:30.619
 can

00:38:30.619 --> 00:38:31.139
 produce

00:38:31.139 --> 00:38:31.980
 or

00:38:31.980 --> 00:38:32.199
 will

00:38:32.199 --> 00:38:32.360
 you

00:38:32.360 --> 00:38:32.599
 pin

00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:32.779
 your

 grace

00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:34.920
 of

00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:35.279
 God

00:38:35.279 --> 00:38:36.840
 being

00:38:36.840 --> 00:38:37.340
 accepted

00:38:37.340 --> 00:38:37.559
 in

00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:37.679
 the

 blood

00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:38.000
 of

00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:38.420
 Jesus

00:38:38.420 --> 00:38:41.000
 will

00:38:41.000 --> 00:38:41.159
 you

00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:41.380
 pray

00:38:41.380 --> 00:38:41.539
 with

 pray

00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:51.920
 father

 I

00:38:53.599 --> 00:38:54.260
 thank you

00:38:54.260 --> 00:38:54.559
 that you

00:38:54.559 --> 00:38:55.220
 love us

00:38:55.220 --> 00:38:55.599
 enough

00:38:55.599 --> 00:38:56.400
 to tell

00:38:56.400 --> 00:38:56.559
 us

00:38:56.559 --> 00:38:56.720
 the

00:38:56.720 --> 00:38:57.059
 truth

00:38:57.059 --> 00:39:00.380
 that

00:39:00.380 --> 00:39:00.700
 you

00:39:00.700 --> 00:39:01.720
 expose

00:39:01.720 --> 00:39:04.380
 ourselves

00:39:04.380 --> 00:39:05.139
 you

00:39:05.139 --> 00:39:05.599
 show

 every

00:39:06.039 --> 00:39:06.440
 area

00:39:06.440 --> 00:39:06.720
 of our

00:39:06.720 --> 00:39:07.019
 life

00:39:07.019 --> 00:39:07.360
 where
