00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:16.160
 2 Corinthians chapter 13 and Christine is going to come and read for us this morning.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:39.399
 So that's 2 Corinthians chapter 13, beginning at verse 1 and that's on page 1167, whether

00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:41.159
 you've got the blue or the red Bible.

00:00:45.060 --> 00:00:47.340
 This will be my third visit to you.

00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:53.879
 Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.

00:00:54.879 --> 00:00:58.760
 I already gave you a warning when I was with you the second time.

00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:01.839
 I now repeat it while absent.

00:01:02.659 --> 00:01:08.319
 On my return, I will not spare those who sinned earlier or any of the others, since you are

00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:11.140
 demanding proof that Christ is speaking through me.

00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:16.400
 He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful among you.

00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:23.120
 For to be sure, he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God's power.

00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:31.859
 Likewise, we are weak in him, yet by God's power, we will live with him in our dealing with you.

00:01:33.980 --> 00:01:36.880
 Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith.

00:01:37.420 --> 00:01:38.300
 Test yourselves.

00:01:39.260 --> 00:01:42.240
 Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you?

00:01:43.100 --> 00:01:45.100
 Unless, of course, you fail the test.

00:01:45.099 --> 00:01:50.519
 And I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test.

00:01:51.459 --> 00:01:54.699
 Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong.

00:01:55.759 --> 00:02:01.959
 Not so that people will see that we have stood the test, but so that you will do what is right,

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:04.679
 even though we may seem to have failed.

00:02:05.679 --> 00:02:10.280
 For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.

00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:18.960
 We are glad whenever we are weak, but you are strong, and our prayer is that you may be fully restored.

00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:23.080
 This is why I write these things when I am absent.

00:02:23.900 --> 00:02:27.960
 That when I come, I may not have to be harsh in my use of authority.

00:02:28.580 --> 00:02:34.680
 The authority the Lord gave me for building you up, not for tearing you down.

00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:38.680
 Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice.

00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:41.280
 Strive for full restoration.

00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:42.960
 Encourage one another.

00:02:43.420 --> 00:02:44.420
 Be of one mind.

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:45.540
 Live in peace.

00:02:46.260 --> 00:02:49.140
 And the God of love and peace will be with you.

00:02:50.659 --> 00:02:53.319
 Greet one another with a holy kiss.

00:02:54.219 --> 00:02:56.719
 All God's people here send their greetings.

00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:05.939
 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:17.120
 Thanks, Chris, for reading.

00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:18.640
 Thank you.

00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:27.199
 We come to the end of our studies in 2 Corinthians.

00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:34.899
 And if you've missed any of the talks along the way, you'll find them on the website.

00:03:35.099 --> 00:03:36.039
 Most of them are there.

00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:42.819
 And I encourage you to go back and look through some of the passages in your time.

00:03:42.979 --> 00:03:51.959
 It's been a great encouragement and help to us as we lean upon God's strength in our weakness.

00:03:51.960 --> 00:04:01.140
 So let's pray and ask for God's help as we finish up in this letter this morning.

00:04:01.139 --> 00:04:11.779
 The Apostle Paul writes,

00:04:12.099 --> 00:04:16.979
 For when I am weak, then I am strong.

00:04:16.980 --> 00:04:22.100
 Father, you know our weaknesses.

00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:24.400
 You know our struggles.

00:04:25.939 --> 00:04:31.080
 And how we need to be strengthened and built up in our faith.

00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:41.300
 And so we trust that through your word and by your spirit, you will make us a strong church.

00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:47.539
 That together we would walk faithfully with you.

00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:50.699
 So help us now, we pray.

00:04:51.299 --> 00:04:52.699
 In Jesus' name.

00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:54.039
 Amen.

00:04:54.040 --> 00:05:00.180
 So how strong are you?

00:05:01.460 --> 00:05:08.140
 I don't mean how many kgs can you lift or how many chin-ups you can do on the bar at the back there.

00:05:08.140 --> 00:05:16.379
 I mean, are you strong enough to stand against the blows and punches of false teachers?

00:05:17.379 --> 00:05:19.700
 Are you working out?

00:05:19.699 --> 00:05:28.120
 Are you building up those spiritual muscles so that you remain strong in the faith?

00:05:29.459 --> 00:05:34.839
 Because today we're going to see how we can be a strong church.

00:05:35.379 --> 00:05:40.879
 So this is going to be a workout session together as we look at God's word.

00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:44.839
 Look at chapter 13, verse 1.

00:05:45.019 --> 00:05:49.939
 Paul begins his conclusion with this by reminding us that he says,

00:05:50.159 --> 00:05:53.439
 This will be my third visit to you.

00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:58.879
 If you remember back during his first visit, he had arrived in Corinth.

00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:05.300
 He had preached the good news about Jesus, who had died, and how by trusting him we can have life.

00:06:05.300 --> 00:06:11.220
 And all those who had believed were gathered together into a church.

00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:16.259
 Then on his second visit, which was a lot more difficult,

00:06:17.180 --> 00:06:21.280
 in fact, as described in chapter 2, verse 1, as a painful visit,

00:06:22.300 --> 00:06:27.240
 Paul had to deal with some serious sin issues in the church.

00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:31.639
 Now he plans a third visit.

00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:34.680
 So look at verse 10 with me.

00:06:36.419 --> 00:06:37.180
 He says,

00:06:37.259 --> 00:06:39.319
 This is why I write these things.

00:06:39.419 --> 00:06:40.800
 So the whole letter.

00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:44.939
 This is why I write these things when I am absent.

00:06:45.599 --> 00:06:47.000
 That when I come,

00:06:47.579 --> 00:06:49.240
 that will be my third visit,

00:06:49.919 --> 00:06:53.979
 I may not have to be harsh in my use of authority.

00:06:54.819 --> 00:07:00.060
 The authority the Lord gave me for building you up.

00:07:00.060 --> 00:07:03.120
 Not for tearing you down.

00:07:04.819 --> 00:07:09.180
 So Paul's hope and desire is that when he visits the church,

00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:11.920
 they will be built up.

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.160
 Because being strong is vital,

00:07:16.300 --> 00:07:22.300
 because there are those who will try to lead us away from Christ and the gospel.

00:07:22.300 --> 00:07:26.900
 We were warned about this in chapter 11.

00:07:26.960 --> 00:07:30.620
 If you have a look back in chapter 11, verse 13.

00:07:31.699 --> 00:07:40.439
 Remember the so-called super apostles had arrived in and were creating and causing havoc in the church.

00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:45.879
 And we're told about these people in chapter 11, verse 13.

00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:49.000
 For such people are false apostles,

00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:51.759
 deceitful workers,

00:07:52.620 --> 00:07:54.819
 masquerading as apostles of Christ.

00:07:55.220 --> 00:07:57.980
 And no wonder for Satan himself

00:07:57.980 --> 00:08:02.159
 masquerades as an angel of light.

00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:05.540
 They were teaching things like,

00:08:05.700 --> 00:08:07.439
 well, you've got God's word,

00:08:07.640 --> 00:08:11.920
 but your word in your heart is more trustworthy.

00:08:12.320 --> 00:08:14.560
 Listen to what you want,

00:08:14.620 --> 00:08:15.580
 what is best.

00:08:17.380 --> 00:08:19.600
 Let's get back to chapter 13.

00:08:19.780 --> 00:08:20.740
 So Paul is saying,

00:08:20.840 --> 00:08:22.520
 look, when I come to visit you,

00:08:23.140 --> 00:08:24.320
 when I come to you,

00:08:24.400 --> 00:08:26.620
 I want you to be in good shape.

00:08:27.100 --> 00:08:29.360
 I want you to be working out

00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:30.820
 so that you are built up.

00:08:30.819 --> 00:08:33.379
 In fact, it's even stronger than that.

00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:34.220
 He's saying,

00:08:34.379 --> 00:08:35.919
 if you're not in shape,

00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:37.779
 when I come,

00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:40.759
 I will knock you into shape.

00:08:41.620 --> 00:08:43.480
 That's how forceful he is.

00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:44.899
 Look again at verse 10.

00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:46.939
 I wonder if you picked it up.

00:08:47.580 --> 00:08:48.700
 In verse 10, he says,

00:08:48.779 --> 00:08:51.600
 this is why I write these things when I am absent,

00:08:52.299 --> 00:08:53.779
 that when I come,

00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:55.819
 I may not have to be harsh

00:08:55.819 --> 00:08:59.080
 in my use of authority.

00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:00.960
 He's saying,

00:09:01.139 --> 00:09:02.580
 get yourself fit,

00:09:03.139 --> 00:09:05.520
 or I'm going to get you fit.

00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:08.720
 Well,

00:09:09.540 --> 00:09:11.020
 who is Paul

00:09:11.020 --> 00:09:13.820
 to talk with such authority?

00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:17.520
 Why should we listen to his words?

00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:20.180
 Well, he has authority

00:09:20.180 --> 00:09:22.920
 because he is an apostle.

00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:25.199
 This is something he's been trying

00:09:25.199 --> 00:09:26.759
 to teach them through the letter.

00:09:27.379 --> 00:09:29.439
 So jump back to chapter 12,

00:09:29.899 --> 00:09:31.139
 verse 12.

00:09:34.620 --> 00:09:35.579
 He says,

00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:39.620
 I persevered in demonstrating among you

00:09:39.620 --> 00:09:42.399
 the marks of a true apostle,

00:09:43.379 --> 00:09:44.939
 including signs,

00:09:45.579 --> 00:09:45.979
 wonders,

00:09:46.379 --> 00:09:47.439
 and miracles.

00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:50.440
 So all the signs and wonders

00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.200
 that the apostle Paul had done

00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.440
 proved his authority.

00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:56.380
 It was a mark of authentication

00:09:56.380 --> 00:09:58.980
 that he was called by God

00:09:58.980 --> 00:10:00.520
 to this special task.

00:10:01.880 --> 00:10:04.080
 And he uses that authority

00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:06.940
 to build up the church.

00:10:07.560 --> 00:10:08.720
 So chapter 12,

00:10:09.100 --> 00:10:11.040
 at the end of verse 19,

00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:13.939
 he says,

00:10:14.019 --> 00:10:15.519
 and everything we do,

00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:16.459
 dear friends,

00:10:16.779 --> 00:10:19.360
 is for your strengthening.

00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:21.339
 You see,

00:10:21.439 --> 00:10:23.559
 Paul's words are not to be treated

00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:24.039
 lightly.

00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:26.679
 It's not just an opinion

00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:27.480
 he has.

00:10:27.899 --> 00:10:30.039
 They come with the very authority

00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:30.879
 of Christ.

00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:32.699
 So chapter 13,

00:10:32.839 --> 00:10:33.519
 verse 3,

00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:36.120
 he says,

00:10:36.199 --> 00:10:37.600
 you are demanding proof

00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:38.500
 that Christ

00:10:38.500 --> 00:10:39.819
 is speaking

00:10:39.819 --> 00:10:41.480
 through me.

00:10:42.679 --> 00:10:43.360
 Well,

00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:44.299
 that's a big thing

00:10:44.299 --> 00:10:44.860
 to claim,

00:10:44.980 --> 00:10:45.340
 isn't it?

00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:46.319
 To say that everything

00:10:46.319 --> 00:10:47.319
 that I say

00:10:47.319 --> 00:10:49.159
 and the words that I write

00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:50.539
 is Christ

00:10:50.539 --> 00:10:51.299
 speaking

00:10:51.299 --> 00:10:52.620
 through me.

00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:54.740
 But that's exactly

00:10:54.740 --> 00:10:55.779
 what he is saying.

00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:57.340
 Because the words

00:10:57.340 --> 00:10:58.539
 that we read here

00:10:58.539 --> 00:10:59.579
 in 2 Corinthians,

00:10:59.980 --> 00:11:00.879
 as we listen

00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:01.860
 to these words,

00:11:01.860 --> 00:11:03.159
 we are to listen

00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:03.600
 to them

00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:04.320
 as if they were

00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:05.379
 the very words

00:11:05.379 --> 00:11:07.120
 of Jesus Christ.

00:11:09.100 --> 00:11:09.960
 It's like Paul

00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:11.279
 is their spiritual

00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:12.980
 gym instructor.

00:11:12.980 --> 00:11:14.360
 He is using

00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:15.639
 his authority

00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:17.700
 to build

00:11:17.700 --> 00:11:19.139
 and strengthen

00:11:19.139 --> 00:11:20.060
 the church.

00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:22.680
 Now,

00:11:22.740 --> 00:11:23.320
 I hope we know

00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:24.879
 that physical exercise

00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:26.539
 is good for you

00:11:26.539 --> 00:11:27.820
 and that if we

00:11:27.820 --> 00:11:29.039
 don't exercise,

00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:30.120
 then physically

00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:31.320
 we get out of shape.

00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:32.280
 we become

00:11:32.280 --> 00:11:33.160
 unfit

00:11:33.160 --> 00:11:34.240
 and those

00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:35.020
 health issues

00:11:35.020 --> 00:11:35.760
 arise.

00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:36.920
 Well,

00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:37.700
 in the same way,

00:11:37.800 --> 00:11:38.620
 we need to be

00:11:38.620 --> 00:11:40.620
 fit spiritually.

00:11:41.160 --> 00:11:42.320
 We need to be

00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:43.820
 strengthened together

00:11:43.820 --> 00:11:44.660
 as a church

00:11:44.660 --> 00:11:45.900
 and built up.

00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:46.980
 Paul put it

00:11:46.980 --> 00:11:47.460
 like this

00:11:47.460 --> 00:11:47.960
 when he was

00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:48.460
 encouraging

00:11:48.460 --> 00:11:49.540
 a young pastor

00:11:49.540 --> 00:11:51.160
 called Timothy.

00:11:53.800 --> 00:11:54.920
 I don't have it.

00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:55.500
 You'll just have

00:11:55.500 --> 00:11:56.320
 to listen to it.

00:11:56.780 --> 00:11:57.920
 He says to Timothy,

00:11:58.060 --> 00:11:58.440
 he says,

00:11:58.440 --> 00:11:59.520
 train yourself

00:11:59.520 --> 00:12:01.060
 to be godly.

00:12:01.820 --> 00:12:02.780
 For physical

00:12:02.780 --> 00:12:03.800
 training is of

00:12:03.800 --> 00:12:04.920
 some value,

00:12:05.920 --> 00:12:07.260
 but godliness

00:12:07.260 --> 00:12:08.860
 has value

00:12:08.860 --> 00:12:10.220
 for all things.

00:12:10.660 --> 00:12:11.400
 In other words,

00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:12.180
 he's saying to them,

00:12:12.620 --> 00:12:13.280
 prioritize

00:12:13.280 --> 00:12:15.240
 strengthening

00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:16.660
 yourself

00:12:16.660 --> 00:12:17.440
 spiritually.

00:12:18.140 --> 00:12:18.280
 Prioritize

00:12:19.060 --> 00:12:19.280
 strengthening

00:12:19.820 --> 00:12:21.320
 the church.

00:12:22.140 --> 00:12:23.100
 Listen to

00:12:23.100 --> 00:12:24.220
 and submit to

00:12:24.220 --> 00:12:25.940
 the apostolic

00:12:25.940 --> 00:12:26.560
 authority

00:12:26.560 --> 00:12:27.560
 which is

00:12:27.560 --> 00:12:28.379
 God's word

00:12:28.379 --> 00:12:28.980
 which we are

00:12:28.980 --> 00:12:29.540
 looking at

00:12:29.540 --> 00:12:30.120
 right now

00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:30.600
 today.

00:12:32.060 --> 00:12:32.540
 This is

00:12:32.540 --> 00:12:33.440
 God's word

00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:34.399
 written down

00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:35.879
 so that we

00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:36.759
 can stand

00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:37.420
 strong

00:12:37.420 --> 00:12:38.200
 in the face

00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:39.000
 of opposition

00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:40.420
 of false

00:12:40.420 --> 00:12:40.960
 teachers

00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:42.300
 who may want

00:12:42.300 --> 00:12:42.960
 to lead us

00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:43.480
 astray.

00:12:44.340 --> 00:12:45.120
 So how are we

00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:45.600
 going to do

00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:45.920
 that?

00:12:46.019 --> 00:12:46.680
 We've set the

00:12:46.680 --> 00:12:47.019
 scene,

00:12:47.580 --> 00:12:48.180
 be fit,

00:12:48.180 --> 00:12:49.120
 be strong,

00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:50.399
 let us be

00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:51.279
 built up together.

00:12:51.420 --> 00:12:52.040
 How is that

00:12:52.040 --> 00:12:52.680
 going to happen?

00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:53.819
 Well, we're

00:12:53.819 --> 00:12:54.199
 going to go

00:12:54.199 --> 00:12:54.979
 through four

00:12:54.979 --> 00:12:55.839
 spiritual

00:12:55.839 --> 00:12:56.759
 exercises

00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:58.539
 to help us

00:12:58.539 --> 00:12:59.819
 be strong.

00:13:00.459 --> 00:13:01.219
 So get on

00:13:01.219 --> 00:13:03.179
 your sweatpants

00:13:03.179 --> 00:13:03.739
 and your

00:13:03.739 --> 00:13:04.539
 joggers

00:13:04.539 --> 00:13:05.519
 and let's

00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:06.259
 get into

00:13:06.259 --> 00:13:07.679
 the gym.

00:13:08.179 --> 00:13:08.699
 Here's the

00:13:08.699 --> 00:13:09.899
 first exercise.

00:13:10.759 --> 00:13:11.239
 Deal

00:13:11.239 --> 00:13:12.319
 with

00:13:12.319 --> 00:13:13.259
 sin.

00:13:14.479 --> 00:13:15.000
 Verse

00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:15.399
 two.

00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:18.579
 I already

00:13:18.579 --> 00:13:19.199
 gave you

00:13:19.199 --> 00:13:19.799
 a warning

00:13:19.799 --> 00:13:21.759
 when I

00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:22.299
 was with

00:13:22.299 --> 00:13:22.579
 you.

00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:23.120
 on that

00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:23.719
 second

00:13:23.719 --> 00:13:24.319
 visit.

00:13:24.979 --> 00:13:25.620
 I now

00:13:25.620 --> 00:13:26.239
 repeat it

00:13:26.239 --> 00:13:27.139
 while absent.

00:13:27.819 --> 00:13:28.519
 On my

00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:29.099
 return,

00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:30.179
 I will

00:13:30.179 --> 00:13:30.899
 not spare

00:13:30.899 --> 00:13:31.579
 those who

00:13:31.579 --> 00:13:32.039
 sinned

00:13:32.039 --> 00:13:32.639
 earlier

00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:33.939
 or any

00:13:33.939 --> 00:13:34.359
 of the

00:13:34.359 --> 00:13:34.839
 others.

00:13:36.299 --> 00:13:36.939
 Sounds

00:13:36.939 --> 00:13:37.799
 heavy-handed,

00:13:37.979 --> 00:13:38.579
 doesn't it?

00:13:39.339 --> 00:13:40.019
 But these

00:13:40.019 --> 00:13:40.679
 are words

00:13:40.679 --> 00:13:41.399
 of deep

00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:42.159
 loving

00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:42.859
 concern

00:13:42.859 --> 00:13:43.419
 for the

00:13:43.419 --> 00:13:43.959
 church.

00:13:45.099 --> 00:13:45.699
 Remember

00:13:45.699 --> 00:13:46.039
 what he

00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:46.459
 said in

00:13:46.459 --> 00:13:47.219
 chapter 12

00:13:47.219 --> 00:13:48.079
 verse 21?

00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.980
 he says,

00:13:51.040 --> 00:13:51.980
 I'm afraid

00:13:51.980 --> 00:13:53.500
 that when I

00:13:53.500 --> 00:13:54.220
 come again

00:13:54.220 --> 00:13:54.720
 on this

00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:55.500
 third visit,

00:13:55.980 --> 00:13:56.600
 my God

00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:57.280
 will humble

00:13:57.280 --> 00:13:57.960
 me before

00:13:57.960 --> 00:13:58.820
 you and

00:13:58.820 --> 00:13:59.420
 I will be

00:13:59.420 --> 00:14:00.139
 grieved over

00:14:00.139 --> 00:14:00.900
 many who

00:14:00.900 --> 00:14:01.740
 have sinned

00:14:01.740 --> 00:14:02.200
 earlier

00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:04.360
 and have

00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:05.020
 not

00:14:05.020 --> 00:14:06.600
 repented.

00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:06.800
 sinned.

00:14:06.800 --> 00:14:07.040
 He's

00:14:07.040 --> 00:14:07.560
 tackling

00:14:07.560 --> 00:14:09.360
 unrepentant

00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:11.680
 sin,

00:14:12.340 --> 00:14:13.379
 not dealing

00:14:13.379 --> 00:14:13.980
 with those

00:14:13.980 --> 00:14:14.920
 behaviours and

00:14:14.920 --> 00:14:16.180
 attitudes that

00:14:16.180 --> 00:14:17.180
 weaken us

00:14:17.180 --> 00:14:18.720
 spiritually and

00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:19.820
 can destroy

00:14:19.820 --> 00:14:21.220
 the church.

00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:23.019
 So he's

00:14:23.019 --> 00:14:23.740
 saying deal

00:14:23.740 --> 00:14:24.279
 with that

00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:25.120
 unrepentant

00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:25.379
 sin,

00:14:25.779 --> 00:14:26.360
 sort it

00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:26.759
 out.

00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:30.480
 well how

00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:30.779
 do we

00:14:30.779 --> 00:14:31.480
 do that?

00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:33.740
 Well we

00:14:33.740 --> 00:14:34.620
 can summarise

00:14:34.620 --> 00:14:35.039
 it like

00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:35.539
 this.

00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:39.480
 We can

00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:40.159
 summarise it

00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:40.860
 like this.

00:14:42.059 --> 00:14:43.419
 Christ is

00:14:43.419 --> 00:14:44.039
 at work

00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:45.240
 in his

00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:45.840
 church

00:14:45.840 --> 00:14:47.279
 to deal

00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:47.960
 with sin

00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:48.779
 by his

00:14:48.779 --> 00:14:49.340
 spirit

00:14:49.340 --> 00:14:50.620
 through his

00:14:50.620 --> 00:14:51.039
 word.

00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:53.019
 Christ is

00:14:53.019 --> 00:14:53.519
 at work

00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:54.240
 in his

00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:54.720
 church

00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:55.779
 to deal

00:14:55.779 --> 00:14:56.439
 with sin

00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:57.580
 by his

00:14:57.580 --> 00:14:58.080
 spirit

00:14:58.080 --> 00:14:58.940
 through his

00:14:58.940 --> 00:14:59.420
 word.

00:15:00.620 --> 00:15:01.380
 Look at

00:15:01.380 --> 00:15:02.740
 verse 3,

00:15:02.860 --> 00:15:03.240
 the end

00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:04.060
 of verse 3.

00:15:06.220 --> 00:15:06.660
 He,

00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:07.660
 that is

00:15:07.660 --> 00:15:08.240
 Christ,

00:15:09.020 --> 00:15:09.940
 is not

00:15:09.940 --> 00:15:10.600
 weak

00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:12.080
 in dealing

00:15:12.080 --> 00:15:12.880
 with you

00:15:12.880 --> 00:15:14.360
 but is

00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:15.160
 powerful

00:15:15.160 --> 00:15:16.920
 among you.

00:15:18.260 --> 00:15:18.720
 Christ

00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:19.660
 is present

00:15:19.660 --> 00:15:20.520
 and active

00:15:20.520 --> 00:15:22.020
 right now

00:15:22.020 --> 00:15:23.440
 amongst us

00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:24.120
 here as we

00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:24.480
 gather.

00:15:24.920 --> 00:15:25.280
 He is

00:15:25.280 --> 00:15:26.200
 powerful

00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:28.160
 amongst us.

00:15:28.860 --> 00:15:29.300
 How?

00:15:30.180 --> 00:15:30.759
 Well look at

00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:31.420
 verse 4.

00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:33.800
 For to be

00:15:33.800 --> 00:15:34.400
 sure,

00:15:34.920 --> 00:15:35.720
 Christ was

00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:36.460
 crucified

00:15:36.460 --> 00:15:37.640
 in weakness.

00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:39.080
 He was

00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:39.640
 beaten

00:15:39.640 --> 00:15:40.520
 and nailed

00:15:40.520 --> 00:15:41.440
 to a cross

00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:41.940
 with a

00:15:41.940 --> 00:15:42.600
 crown of

00:15:42.600 --> 00:15:43.000
 thorns

00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:43.640
 crushed in

00:15:43.640 --> 00:15:44.220
 his head.

00:15:45.280 --> 00:15:46.000
 Yet he

00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:46.940
 lives

00:15:46.940 --> 00:15:48.520
 by God's

00:15:48.520 --> 00:15:48.980
 power.

00:15:50.560 --> 00:15:51.280
 Christ's

00:15:51.280 --> 00:15:51.820
 death on

00:15:51.820 --> 00:15:52.280
 the cross

00:15:52.280 --> 00:15:52.759
 was the

00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:53.860
 means for

00:15:53.860 --> 00:15:54.360
 defeating

00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:55.080
 our sin

00:15:55.080 --> 00:15:56.039
 once and

00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:56.560
 for all

00:15:56.560 --> 00:15:57.399
 and now

00:15:57.399 --> 00:15:58.180
 the risen

00:15:58.180 --> 00:15:59.019
 Jesus is

00:15:59.019 --> 00:16:00.519
 present by

00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:01.399
 his spirit

00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:02.539
 amongst the

00:16:02.539 --> 00:16:03.500
 church and

00:16:03.500 --> 00:16:04.120
 the spirit

00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:05.360
 applies the

00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:06.100
 finished work

00:16:06.100 --> 00:16:06.680
 of Christ

00:16:06.680 --> 00:16:07.519
 to all

00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:08.159
 who will

00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:08.620
 turn in

00:16:08.620 --> 00:16:09.100
 repentance.

00:16:09.800 --> 00:16:10.320
 So Jesus

00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:10.899
 is saying

00:16:10.899 --> 00:16:11.800
 come to

00:16:11.800 --> 00:16:12.700
 me and

00:16:12.700 --> 00:16:13.100
 I will

00:16:13.100 --> 00:16:13.919
 forgive you

00:16:13.919 --> 00:16:14.779
 now.

00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:16.460
 Repent

00:16:16.460 --> 00:16:17.159
 and I will

00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:17.899
 remember your

00:16:17.899 --> 00:16:18.960
 sins no more.

00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:19.740
 I am

00:16:19.740 --> 00:16:20.540
 powerful

00:16:20.540 --> 00:16:21.080
 amongst

00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:21.440
 you.

00:16:22.560 --> 00:16:23.400
 My word

00:16:23.400 --> 00:16:24.019
 goes out

00:16:24.019 --> 00:16:24.560
 to you

00:16:24.560 --> 00:16:25.480
 and my

00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:26.379
 spirit will

00:16:26.379 --> 00:16:27.019
 enable you

00:16:27.019 --> 00:16:27.700
 to turn

00:16:27.700 --> 00:16:28.879
 and to

00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:29.320
 repent.

00:16:30.940 --> 00:16:31.460
 You see

00:16:31.460 --> 00:16:32.259
 Christ is

00:16:32.259 --> 00:16:32.860
 serious

00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:34.600
 about sin.

00:16:35.759 --> 00:16:36.300
 He's so

00:16:36.300 --> 00:16:37.180
 serious about

00:16:37.180 --> 00:16:37.580
 it that he

00:16:37.580 --> 00:16:38.300
 provided the

00:16:38.300 --> 00:16:38.780
 means for

00:16:38.780 --> 00:16:39.519
 defeating it.

00:16:39.920 --> 00:16:40.460
 So let's

00:16:40.460 --> 00:16:41.800
 start exercising

00:16:41.800 --> 00:16:42.920
 that truth

00:16:42.920 --> 00:16:44.639
 within the

00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:45.120
 church.

00:16:46.759 --> 00:16:47.180
 You see

00:16:47.180 --> 00:16:47.600
 when we

00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:48.200
 become a

00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:48.759
 Christian

00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:50.639
 we don't

00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:51.000
 live in

00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:51.740
 isolation

00:16:51.740 --> 00:16:52.879
 God places

00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:53.779
 us into

00:16:53.779 --> 00:16:54.480
 a community

00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:55.379
 of believers

00:16:55.379 --> 00:16:56.779
 the church

00:16:56.779 --> 00:16:58.039
 and God

00:16:58.039 --> 00:16:58.679
 does that

00:16:58.679 --> 00:16:59.159
 for our

00:16:59.159 --> 00:16:59.799
 very good

00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:00.220
 for our

00:17:00.220 --> 00:17:00.620
 best

00:17:00.620 --> 00:17:01.500
 because we

00:17:01.500 --> 00:17:02.360
 need people

00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:03.220
 around us

00:17:03.220 --> 00:17:04.200
 to remind

00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:04.900
 us of what

00:17:04.900 --> 00:17:05.619
 Christ has

00:17:05.619 --> 00:17:06.460
 done for us

00:17:06.460 --> 00:17:07.180
 on the cross

00:17:07.180 --> 00:17:08.240
 and people

00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:08.559
 who will

00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:09.039
 take us

00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:09.559
 back to

00:17:09.559 --> 00:17:10.059
 the cross

00:17:10.059 --> 00:17:10.799
 to deal

00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:12.180
 with issues

00:17:12.180 --> 00:17:12.599
 in our

00:17:12.599 --> 00:17:13.079
 life.

00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:15.000
 That's

00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:15.700
 exactly what

00:17:15.700 --> 00:17:16.180
 he's saying

00:17:16.180 --> 00:17:17.160
 here if you

00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:17.559
 look at the

00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:18.240
 second part

00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:18.620
 of verse

00:17:18.620 --> 00:17:19.000
 four.

00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:22.240
 So it's

00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:22.700
 not just

00:17:22.700 --> 00:17:23.259
 Christ

00:17:23.259 --> 00:17:24.059
 who is

00:17:24.059 --> 00:17:24.579
 powerful

00:17:24.579 --> 00:17:25.160
 amongst

00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:26.000
 the church.

00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:27.920
 Look at

00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:28.240
 the rest

00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:28.579
 of verse

00:17:28.579 --> 00:17:28.839
 four.

00:17:28.980 --> 00:17:29.359
 Likewise

00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:30.160
 we are

00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:30.740
 weak in

00:17:30.740 --> 00:17:31.160
 him

00:17:31.160 --> 00:17:32.440
 yet by

00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:33.140
 God's

00:17:33.140 --> 00:17:33.640
 power

00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:34.220
 we will

00:17:34.220 --> 00:17:34.640
 live

00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:35.420
 with him

00:17:35.420 --> 00:17:36.240
 in our

00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:36.700
 dealing

00:17:36.700 --> 00:17:37.440
 with you.

00:17:39.079 --> 00:17:39.420
 You see

00:17:39.420 --> 00:17:40.319
 by ourselves

00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:41.240
 we cannot

00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:42.140
 deal

00:17:42.140 --> 00:17:42.799
 with sin

00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:44.879
 but Christ

00:17:44.879 --> 00:17:45.440
 has given

00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:45.960
 us the

00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:46.639
 power of

00:17:46.639 --> 00:17:47.399
 his spirit

00:17:47.399 --> 00:17:49.019
 and the

00:17:49.019 --> 00:17:49.960
 authority of

00:17:49.960 --> 00:17:50.519
 his word

00:17:50.519 --> 00:17:51.599
 given to

00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:52.299
 his church

00:17:52.299 --> 00:17:53.359
 so that we

00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:54.019
 can help

00:17:54.019 --> 00:17:54.599
 one another

00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:55.500
 repent of

00:17:55.500 --> 00:17:56.539
 the sinful

00:17:56.539 --> 00:17:57.399
 behaviours and

00:17:57.399 --> 00:17:57.799
 attitudes

00:17:57.799 --> 00:17:58.799
 that are

00:17:58.799 --> 00:17:59.500
 weakening

00:17:59.500 --> 00:18:00.539
 our life

00:18:00.539 --> 00:18:02.559
 and weakening

00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:03.480
 the church.

00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.940
 you see

00:18:06.940 --> 00:18:07.640
 Christ

00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:09.420
 is at work

00:18:09.420 --> 00:18:10.079
 in his

00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:10.579
 church

00:18:10.579 --> 00:18:11.720
 right now

00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:12.360
 as we

00:18:12.360 --> 00:18:12.779
 gather

00:18:12.779 --> 00:18:14.000
 to deal

00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:14.740
 with sin

00:18:14.740 --> 00:18:15.440
 by his

00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:15.980
 spirit

00:18:15.980 --> 00:18:17.339
 through his

00:18:17.339 --> 00:18:18.019
 word.

00:18:18.019 --> 00:18:20.960
 it's a

00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:21.359
 serious

00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:21.980
 thing.

00:18:23.259 --> 00:18:23.940
 It's

00:18:23.940 --> 00:18:24.480
 crucial

00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:25.460
 that we

00:18:25.460 --> 00:18:26.079
 get this

00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:26.799
 spiritual

00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:27.519
 exercise

00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:28.220
 right.

00:18:28.460 --> 00:18:29.160
 It's not

00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:29.920
 our job

00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:30.660
 to defeat

00:18:30.660 --> 00:18:31.099
 sin.

00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:32.000
 Christ

00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:32.759
 has wonderfully

00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:33.339
 done that

00:18:33.339 --> 00:18:33.680
 on the

00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:34.019
 cross.

00:18:34.500 --> 00:18:34.740
 Our

00:18:34.740 --> 00:18:35.139
 role

00:18:35.139 --> 00:18:35.680
 the

00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:36.220
 exercise

00:18:36.220 --> 00:18:36.960
 we need

00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:37.420
 to do

00:18:37.420 --> 00:18:38.119
 is to

00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:38.460
 bring

00:18:38.460 --> 00:18:38.940
 God's

00:18:38.940 --> 00:18:39.200
 word

00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:39.639
 to one

00:18:39.639 --> 00:18:39.980
 another

00:18:39.980 --> 00:18:40.660
 and to

00:18:40.660 --> 00:18:40.839
 be

00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:41.240
 praying

00:18:41.240 --> 00:18:41.639
 for the

00:18:41.639 --> 00:18:41.960
 spirit

00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:42.339
 to be

00:18:42.339 --> 00:18:42.799
 at work

00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:43.240
 amongst

00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:43.740
 us.

00:18:45.099 --> 00:18:45.940
 And this

00:18:45.940 --> 00:18:46.319
 is what

00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:47.220
 all church

00:18:47.220 --> 00:18:47.740
 members

00:18:47.740 --> 00:18:48.480
 must do.

00:18:49.259 --> 00:18:49.980
 We can't

00:18:49.980 --> 00:18:50.519
 opt out

00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:50.920
 of this

00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:51.500
 exercise

00:18:51.500 --> 00:18:51.880
 and go

00:18:51.880 --> 00:18:52.640
 I don't

00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:53.240
 like the

00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:53.960
 idea of

00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:54.380
 this.

00:18:54.980 --> 00:18:55.400
 I don't

00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:55.799
 think I

00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:56.160
 want to

00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:56.740
 do it.

00:18:58.039 --> 00:18:58.359
 That's

00:18:58.359 --> 00:18:58.759
 like a

00:18:58.759 --> 00:18:59.120
 little bit

00:18:59.120 --> 00:18:59.880
 saying I

00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:00.299
 want a

00:19:00.299 --> 00:19:00.920
 six pack

00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:01.279
 but I

00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:01.420
 don't

00:19:01.420 --> 00:19:01.660
 want to

00:19:01.660 --> 00:19:02.019
 do any

00:19:02.019 --> 00:19:02.680
 sit-ups.

00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:06.420
 This is

00:19:06.420 --> 00:19:06.819
 the way

00:19:06.819 --> 00:19:07.259
 in which

00:19:07.259 --> 00:19:07.920
 the church

00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:08.539
 is built

00:19:08.539 --> 00:19:09.240
 up and

00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:09.980
 strengthened.

00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:12.059
 And as

00:19:12.059 --> 00:19:12.799
 he concludes

00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:13.579
 his letter

00:19:13.579 --> 00:19:15.160
 he says

00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:15.960
 deal with

00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:16.519
 the things

00:19:16.519 --> 00:19:17.039
 that need

00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:17.500
 dealt

00:19:17.500 --> 00:19:17.980
 with.

00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:19.380
 Otherwise

00:19:19.380 --> 00:19:20.059
 you will

00:19:20.059 --> 00:19:21.039
 spiral out

00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:21.779
 of control.

00:19:24.180 --> 00:19:25.019
 So let

00:19:25.019 --> 00:19:25.660
 us together

00:19:25.660 --> 00:19:26.359
 speak

00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:27.319
 God's

00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:27.779
 word

00:19:27.779 --> 00:19:29.500
 and pray

00:19:29.500 --> 00:19:29.960
 for the

00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:30.500
 spirit to

00:19:30.500 --> 00:19:30.839
 be at

00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:31.240
 work

00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:33.240
 and watch

00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:34.480
 the body

00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:34.900
 of the

00:19:34.900 --> 00:19:35.319
 church

00:19:35.319 --> 00:19:36.160
 grow.

00:19:37.500 --> 00:19:37.799
 So

00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:38.400
 exercise

00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:39.140
 one

00:19:39.140 --> 00:19:40.660
 deal

00:19:40.660 --> 00:19:41.500
 with

00:19:41.500 --> 00:19:42.640
 sin.

00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:44.960
 second

00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:45.880
 exercise

00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:48.759
 has to

00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:49.100
 do with

00:19:49.100 --> 00:19:49.280
 our

00:19:49.280 --> 00:19:49.820
 hearts.

00:19:50.980 --> 00:19:51.540
 Examine

00:19:51.540 --> 00:19:51.860
 your

00:19:51.860 --> 00:19:52.180
 heart.

00:19:52.280 --> 00:19:52.600
 We need

00:19:52.600 --> 00:19:53.060
 a healthy

00:19:53.060 --> 00:19:53.460
 heart,

00:19:53.580 --> 00:19:54.040
 don't we?

00:19:54.520 --> 00:19:54.860
 Verse

00:19:54.860 --> 00:19:55.380
 five.

00:19:57.660 --> 00:19:58.320
 Examine

00:19:58.320 --> 00:19:58.980
 yourselves

00:19:58.980 --> 00:19:59.660
 to see

00:19:59.660 --> 00:20:00.340
 whether you

00:20:00.340 --> 00:20:00.920
 are in

00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:01.759
 the face.

00:20:03.080 --> 00:20:03.500
 Test

00:20:03.500 --> 00:20:04.180
 yourself.

00:20:04.180 --> 00:20:07.000
 when I

00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:07.380
 go to

00:20:07.380 --> 00:20:07.840
 the gym

00:20:07.840 --> 00:20:08.660
 one of

00:20:08.660 --> 00:20:09.060
 the first

00:20:09.060 --> 00:20:10.180
 exercises I

00:20:10.180 --> 00:20:10.700
 try to

00:20:10.700 --> 00:20:11.160
 do is

00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:11.519
 on the

00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:11.860
 rowing

00:20:11.860 --> 00:20:12.240
 machine

00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:12.860
 and I

00:20:12.860 --> 00:20:13.160
 have a

00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:13.560
 target.

00:20:13.779 --> 00:20:14.180
 I click

00:20:14.180 --> 00:20:15.100
 in the

00:20:15.100 --> 00:20:15.580
 number of

00:20:15.580 --> 00:20:15.920
 meters,

00:20:16.120 --> 00:20:17.259
 2,300

00:20:17.259 --> 00:20:18.840
 meters I've

00:20:18.840 --> 00:20:19.320
 got to do

00:20:19.320 --> 00:20:19.759
 in 10

00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:20.240
 minutes.

00:20:20.680 --> 00:20:21.160
 That's the

00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:21.720
 aim at

00:20:21.720 --> 00:20:22.060
 least.

00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:22.980
 I don't

00:20:22.980 --> 00:20:23.500
 always get

00:20:23.500 --> 00:20:23.700
 there,

00:20:23.759 --> 00:20:24.160
 most of

00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:24.660
 the time I

00:20:24.660 --> 00:20:25.100
 don't,

00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:26.460
 but at

00:20:26.460 --> 00:20:27.220
 least it's

00:20:27.220 --> 00:20:27.820
 a target

00:20:27.820 --> 00:20:28.299
 to aim

00:20:28.299 --> 00:20:28.460
 for.

00:20:28.539 --> 00:20:28.880
 I need

00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:29.700
 to examine

00:20:29.700 --> 00:20:30.779
 my

00:20:30.779 --> 00:20:31.580
 fitness.

00:20:32.840 --> 00:20:33.240
 Well,

00:20:33.279 --> 00:20:33.620
 we are

00:20:33.620 --> 00:20:34.559
 to examine

00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:35.600
 and test

00:20:35.600 --> 00:20:36.180
 ourselves

00:20:36.180 --> 00:20:37.299
 to see

00:20:37.299 --> 00:20:37.960
 whether we

00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:38.539
 are in

00:20:38.539 --> 00:20:39.400
 the faith.

00:20:41.259 --> 00:20:42.120
 So how

00:20:42.120 --> 00:20:42.559
 do we go

00:20:42.559 --> 00:20:43.360
 about testing

00:20:43.360 --> 00:20:43.880
 ourselves?

00:20:45.220 --> 00:20:46.140
 Am I

00:20:46.140 --> 00:20:46.620
 in the

00:20:46.620 --> 00:20:47.019
 faith

00:20:47.019 --> 00:20:47.600
 today?

00:20:49.600 --> 00:20:50.279
 Look at

00:20:50.279 --> 00:20:51.000
 the second

00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:51.539
 part of

00:20:51.539 --> 00:20:52.240
 verse five.

00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:54.200
 Do you

00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:55.420
 not realise

00:20:55.420 --> 00:20:57.000
 that Christ

00:20:57.000 --> 00:20:57.880
 Jesus is

00:20:57.880 --> 00:20:58.440
 in you

00:20:58.440 --> 00:21:00.019
 unless,

00:21:00.180 --> 00:21:00.740
 of course,

00:21:01.259 --> 00:21:02.500
 you fail

00:21:02.500 --> 00:21:03.279
 the test?

00:21:05.080 --> 00:21:05.539
 Is

00:21:05.539 --> 00:21:06.200
 Christ

00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:06.740
 Jesus

00:21:06.740 --> 00:21:08.000
 in you

00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:09.200
 today?

00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:12.400
 You think,

00:21:12.500 --> 00:21:12.620
 well,

00:21:12.700 --> 00:21:13.180
 what would

00:21:13.180 --> 00:21:13.660
 that look

00:21:13.660 --> 00:21:14.080
 like?

00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:15.259
 What would

00:21:15.259 --> 00:21:15.740
 that look

00:21:15.740 --> 00:21:16.259
 like for

00:21:16.259 --> 00:21:16.700
 Christ

00:21:16.700 --> 00:21:17.440
 Jesus to

00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:17.840
 be in

00:21:17.840 --> 00:21:18.539
 me today?

00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:22.240
 Well,

00:21:22.320 --> 00:21:22.759
 it should

00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:23.700
 be two

00:21:23.700 --> 00:21:24.279
 things,

00:21:24.420 --> 00:21:24.980
 two related

00:21:24.980 --> 00:21:25.420
 things.

00:21:25.820 --> 00:21:26.539
 If Christ

00:21:26.539 --> 00:21:27.220
 Jesus is

00:21:27.220 --> 00:21:27.620
 in me

00:21:27.620 --> 00:21:28.080
 today,

00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:29.039
 there will

00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:29.779
 be repentance

00:21:29.779 --> 00:21:30.559
 of sin,

00:21:30.940 --> 00:21:31.400
 which we've

00:21:31.400 --> 00:21:31.960
 just looked

00:21:31.960 --> 00:21:32.320
 at,

00:21:33.019 --> 00:21:33.759
 and a

00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:34.600
 reliance

00:21:34.600 --> 00:21:35.920
 on God's

00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:36.360
 grace.

00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:38.120
 That's

00:21:38.120 --> 00:21:38.980
 the test.

00:21:40.340 --> 00:21:40.820
 Am I

00:21:40.820 --> 00:21:41.200
 in the

00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:41.620
 faith?

00:21:42.180 --> 00:21:42.480
 Is

00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:42.900
 Christ

00:21:42.900 --> 00:21:43.299
 Jesus

00:21:43.299 --> 00:21:43.880
 in me?

00:21:44.559 --> 00:21:45.140
 Am I

00:21:45.140 --> 00:21:45.940
 repenting

00:21:45.940 --> 00:21:46.340
 of my

00:21:46.340 --> 00:21:46.759
 sin,

00:21:47.080 --> 00:21:47.779
 and am I

00:21:47.779 --> 00:21:48.600
 relying on

00:21:48.600 --> 00:21:49.059
 God's

00:21:49.059 --> 00:21:49.539
 grace?

00:21:49.539 --> 00:21:51.440
 Am I

00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:52.519
 turning away

00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:52.980
 from the

00:21:52.980 --> 00:21:53.559
 behaviours

00:21:53.559 --> 00:21:54.279
 and attitudes

00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:54.980
 that weaken

00:21:54.980 --> 00:21:55.660
 my life,

00:21:55.660 --> 00:21:56.720
 or am I

00:21:56.720 --> 00:21:57.259
 trusting

00:21:57.259 --> 00:21:58.279
 wholeheartedly

00:21:58.279 --> 00:21:59.100
 in the

00:21:59.100 --> 00:21:59.600
 forgiveness

00:21:59.600 --> 00:22:00.279
 of the

00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:00.820
 grace

00:22:00.820 --> 00:22:01.759
 of God?

00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:04.040
 That's

00:22:04.040 --> 00:22:04.820
 the test.

00:22:06.100 --> 00:22:06.660
 So,

00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:07.440
 verse 5,

00:22:08.560 --> 00:22:09.140
 examine

00:22:09.140 --> 00:22:09.880
 yourselves

00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:10.560
 to see

00:22:10.560 --> 00:22:11.060
 whether you

00:22:11.060 --> 00:22:11.340
 are in

00:22:11.340 --> 00:22:11.860
 the faith.

00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:12.840
 Test

00:22:12.840 --> 00:22:13.720
 yourselves.

00:22:14.560 --> 00:22:14.960
 Do you

00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:15.660
 not realise

00:22:15.660 --> 00:22:16.300
 that Christ

00:22:16.300 --> 00:22:16.920
 Jesus is

00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:17.279
 in you

00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:17.880
 unless,

00:22:18.259 --> 00:22:18.600
 of course,

00:22:18.759 --> 00:22:20.000
 you fail

00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:20.700
 the test?

00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:26.039
 So,

00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:26.359
 here's

00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:26.480
 the

00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:26.880
 question

00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:27.460
 for us

00:22:27.460 --> 00:22:27.799
 now.

00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:29.059
 Have

00:22:29.059 --> 00:22:29.519
 you,

00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:30.380
 have I,

00:22:31.019 --> 00:22:31.539
 passed

00:22:31.539 --> 00:22:32.359
 the test,

00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:34.039
 or have

00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:34.660
 I failed

00:22:34.660 --> 00:22:35.400
 the test?

00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:37.539
 Am I

00:22:37.539 --> 00:22:38.420
 relying on

00:22:38.420 --> 00:22:38.920
 myself,

00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:41.400
 or am I

00:22:41.400 --> 00:22:42.200
 relying on

00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:42.640
 God's

00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:43.099
 grace?

00:22:45.079 --> 00:22:45.759
 Well,

00:22:46.220 --> 00:22:47.640
 there's

00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:48.359
 two good

00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:49.240
 news items

00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:50.179
 for us.

00:22:51.199 --> 00:22:51.599
 Good

00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:52.240
 news

00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:53.279
 if we

00:22:53.279 --> 00:22:53.719
 have just

00:22:53.719 --> 00:22:54.379
 failed the

00:22:54.379 --> 00:22:54.879
 test.

00:22:55.879 --> 00:22:56.359
 Good

00:22:56.359 --> 00:22:56.959
 news if

00:22:56.959 --> 00:22:57.479
 we've just

00:22:57.479 --> 00:22:58.059
 failed the

00:22:58.059 --> 00:22:58.419
 test.

00:22:58.759 --> 00:22:59.559
 There is

00:22:59.559 --> 00:23:00.019
 hope.

00:23:00.539 --> 00:23:01.059
 Go back

00:23:01.059 --> 00:23:01.539
 to chapter

00:23:01.539 --> 00:23:02.319

00:23:05.099 --> 00:23:05.740
 Chapter

00:23:05.740 --> 00:23:06.319
 six.

00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:10.399
 The

00:23:10.399 --> 00:23:11.039
 good news

00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:11.359
 is,

00:23:11.479 --> 00:23:12.000
 if we

00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:12.659
 have failed,

00:23:13.699 --> 00:23:14.759
 there is

00:23:14.759 --> 00:23:15.419
 hope.

00:23:15.420 --> 00:23:18.640
 look at

00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:19.120
 verse one

00:23:19.539 --> 00:23:19.920

00:23:20.320 --> 00:23:20.420
 As

00:23:20.420 --> 00:23:20.860
 God's

00:23:20.860 --> 00:23:21.120
 fellow

00:23:21.120 --> 00:23:21.580

 urge you

00:23:22.700 --> 00:23:24.240

00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:24.800
 receive

00:23:24.800 --> 00:23:25.500
 God's

00:23:25.500 --> 00:23:26.100
 grace

00:23:26.100 --> 00:23:27.320
 in vain.

00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:28.700
 Well,

00:23:28.759 --> 00:23:29.039

00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:30.100
 been

00:23:30.100 --> 00:23:30.440
 talking

00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:30.740
 about?

00:23:31.039 --> 00:23:31.300
 Well,

00:23:31.340 --> 00:23:31.539
 it's

00:23:31.539 --> 00:23:31.840

00:23:31.840 --> 00:23:32.420

 verse.

 Chapter

00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:35.580

00:23:35.580 --> 00:23:36.019

00:23:38.019 --> 00:23:38.539
 God

00:23:38.539 --> 00:23:39.019
 made

00:23:39.019 --> 00:23:39.660
 Christ,

00:23:39.840 --> 00:23:40.180
 who had

00:23:40.180 --> 00:23:41.080
 no sin,

00:23:41.860 --> 00:23:42.259
 to be

00:23:42.259 --> 00:23:43.100
 sin for

00:23:43.099 --> 00:23:43.599
 us,

00:23:44.119 --> 00:23:44.740
 so that

00:23:44.740 --> 00:23:45.319
 in

00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:45.879
 Christ

00:23:45.879 --> 00:23:46.179
 we

00:23:46.179 --> 00:23:46.459
 might

00:23:46.459 --> 00:23:46.819
 become

00:23:46.819 --> 00:23:47.079
 the

00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:47.639
 righteousness

00:23:47.639 --> 00:23:48.740
 of

00:23:48.740 --> 00:23:49.179
 God.

00:23:49.699 --> 00:23:50.259
 That

00:23:50.259 --> 00:23:51.240
 is

00:23:51.240 --> 00:23:51.759
 good

00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:52.139
 news.

00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:52.399
 That

00:23:52.399 --> 00:23:52.679

00:23:52.679 --> 00:23:53.419
 great

00:23:53.419 --> 00:23:54.179
 news.

00:23:55.659 --> 00:23:56.339
 So,

00:23:56.779 --> 00:23:57.500
 we

00:23:57.500 --> 00:23:58.240
 urge you,

00:24:01.619 --> 00:24:02.279

00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:03.019
 in

00:24:03.019 --> 00:24:03.459
 vain.

00:24:05.419 --> 00:24:06.099
 Verse

00:24:06.099 --> 00:24:06.480
 two,

00:24:06.740 --> 00:24:07.199

00:24:07.579 --> 00:24:07.799
 in the

 my

 grace

00:24:09.439 --> 00:24:09.679
 I

00:24:09.679 --> 00:24:10.039
 heard

00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:10.319
 you,

00:24:10.579 --> 00:24:11.019
 and in

00:24:11.019 --> 00:24:11.199
 the

00:24:11.199 --> 00:24:11.659
 day of

00:24:11.659 --> 00:24:12.179
 salvation

00:24:12.180 --> 00:24:12.420
 I

00:24:12.420 --> 00:24:12.759
 helped

00:24:12.759 --> 00:24:12.940
 you,

00:24:13.259 --> 00:24:13.380
 I

00:24:13.380 --> 00:24:13.640
 tell

00:24:13.640 --> 00:24:13.900
 you,

 now

00:24:14.779 --> 00:24:15.539

00:24:16.039 --> 00:24:16.240
 of

00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:16.680
 God's

00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:17.200
 grace.

00:24:18.380 --> 00:24:18.980
 Now

00:24:18.980 --> 00:24:19.320
 is

00:24:19.320 --> 00:24:19.480
 the

00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:19.860
 day

00:24:19.860 --> 00:24:20.420
 of

00:24:20.420 --> 00:24:21.060
 salvation.

00:24:23.080 --> 00:24:23.259
 You

00:24:23.259 --> 00:24:23.519
 see,

00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:24.200
 God's

00:24:24.200 --> 00:24:24.660
 grace

00:24:24.660 --> 00:24:24.920
 is

00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:25.400
 available

00:24:25.400 --> 00:24:25.799

00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:26.060
 us

00:24:26.060 --> 00:24:26.240
 in

00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:26.680
 bucket

00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:27.180
 loads,

00:24:27.380 --> 00:24:27.660
 and

00:24:27.660 --> 00:24:27.840
 the

00:24:27.840 --> 00:24:28.400
 opportunity

00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:28.820
 is

00:24:28.820 --> 00:24:29.060
 there

00:24:29.060 --> 00:24:29.279
 for

00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:29.440
 us

00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:29.620
 to

00:24:29.620 --> 00:24:29.820
 turn

00:24:29.820 --> 00:24:30.000
 to

00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:30.160
 him

00:24:30.160 --> 00:24:30.480
 now.

00:24:30.900 --> 00:24:31.279
 Today

00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:31.900
 is

00:24:31.900 --> 00:24:32.060
 the

00:24:32.060 --> 00:24:32.240
 day

00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:32.400
 of

00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:32.920
 salvation.

00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:33.759
 Listen

00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:34.019
 to

00:24:34.019 --> 00:24:34.220
 this

00:24:34.220 --> 00:24:34.779
 wonderful

00:24:34.779 --> 00:24:35.160
 free

00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:35.460
 offer.

00:24:35.660 --> 00:24:36.019
 Don't

00:24:36.019 --> 00:24:36.420
 delay.

00:24:36.820 --> 00:24:37.220
 Don't

00:24:37.220 --> 00:24:37.620
 put it

00:24:37.620 --> 00:24:37.860
 off.

00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:38.360
 If

00:24:38.360 --> 00:24:38.580
 you

00:24:38.580 --> 00:24:38.820
 have

00:24:38.820 --> 00:24:39.299
 not

00:24:39.299 --> 00:24:39.660
 yet

00:24:39.660 --> 00:24:40.160
 passed

00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:40.400
 the

00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:40.740
 test,

00:24:40.820 --> 00:24:40.920
 and

00:24:40.920 --> 00:24:41.039
 you

00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:41.160
 are

00:24:41.160 --> 00:24:41.440
 not

00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:41.640
 in

00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:41.820
 the

00:24:41.820 --> 00:24:42.160
 faith,

00:24:42.600 --> 00:24:43.000
 ask

00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:43.360
 God

00:24:43.360 --> 00:24:43.600
 to

00:24:43.600 --> 00:24:44.000
 save

00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:44.340
 you

00:24:44.340 --> 00:24:45.200
 now.

00:24:46.560 --> 00:24:47.120
 Because

00:24:47.120 --> 00:24:47.740
 where we

00:24:47.740 --> 00:24:48.320
 fail,

00:24:49.420 --> 00:24:49.880
 Christ

00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:50.259
 has

00:24:50.259 --> 00:24:50.680
 won

00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:51.460
 and

00:24:51.460 --> 00:24:52.080
 succeeded

00:24:52.080 --> 00:24:52.900
 on

00:24:52.900 --> 00:24:53.160
 our

00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:53.759
 behalf.

00:24:56.519 --> 00:24:57.140
 But

00:24:57.140 --> 00:24:57.400
 maybe

00:24:57.400 --> 00:24:57.660
 you

00:24:57.660 --> 00:24:57.860
 are

00:24:57.860 --> 00:24:58.039
 a

00:24:58.039 --> 00:24:58.440
 Christian,

00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:00.880
 and

00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:01.060
 you're

00:25:01.060 --> 00:25:01.480
 struggling,

00:25:01.720 --> 00:25:01.759
 and

00:25:01.759 --> 00:25:01.920
 you're

00:25:01.920 --> 00:25:02.200
 thinking,

00:25:02.360 --> 00:25:02.539
 well,

00:25:02.840 --> 00:25:03.060
 am

00:25:03.060 --> 00:25:03.400
 I

00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:04.180
 in

00:25:04.180 --> 00:25:04.360
 the

00:25:04.360 --> 00:25:04.820
 faith?

00:25:06.460 --> 00:25:07.060
 Because

00:25:07.060 --> 00:25:07.680
 I

00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:08.080
 know I

00:25:08.080 --> 00:25:08.380
 haven't

00:25:08.380 --> 00:25:08.580
 been

00:25:08.580 --> 00:25:08.960
 walking

00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:09.220
 in

00:25:09.220 --> 00:25:09.960
 obedience.

00:25:10.920 --> 00:25:12.240
 Rather

00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:12.539
 than

00:25:12.539 --> 00:25:12.900
 dealing

00:25:12.900 --> 00:25:13.180
 with

00:25:13.180 --> 00:25:13.420
 sin,

00:25:13.500 --> 00:25:13.740
 I've

00:25:13.740 --> 00:25:13.980
 just

00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:14.240
 been

00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:14.660
 ignoring

00:25:14.660 --> 00:25:15.100
 it.

00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:17.820
 I

00:25:17.820 --> 00:25:18.080
 hear

00:25:18.080 --> 00:25:18.300
 the

00:25:18.300 --> 00:25:18.620
 call

00:25:18.620 --> 00:25:18.840
 to

00:25:18.840 --> 00:25:19.140
 turn

00:25:19.140 --> 00:25:19.340
 and

00:25:19.340 --> 00:25:19.680
 trust,

00:25:19.840 --> 00:25:20.000
 but

00:25:20.000 --> 00:25:20.940
 I

00:25:20.940 --> 00:25:21.259
 just

00:25:21.259 --> 00:25:21.740
 resist

00:25:21.740 --> 00:25:22.140
 it.

00:25:24.060 --> 00:25:24.660
 Well,

00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:24.800
 the

00:25:24.800 --> 00:25:25.100
 message

00:25:25.100 --> 00:25:25.519
 is the

00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:25.779
 same.

00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:26.320
 Don't

00:25:26.320 --> 00:25:26.900
 receive

00:25:26.900 --> 00:25:27.560
 God's

00:25:27.560 --> 00:25:28.019
 grace

00:25:28.019 --> 00:25:28.660
 in

00:25:28.660 --> 00:25:29.039
 vain.

00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:31.360
 Act

00:25:31.360 --> 00:25:31.720
 on it

00:25:31.720 --> 00:25:32.120
 now.

00:25:33.220 --> 00:25:33.660
 Being

00:25:33.660 --> 00:25:34.120
 able to

00:25:34.120 --> 00:25:34.460
 stand

00:25:34.460 --> 00:25:34.900
 before

00:25:34.900 --> 00:25:35.279
 God

00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:35.580
 and be

00:25:35.580 --> 00:25:35.920
 able to

00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:36.500
 explain

00:25:36.500 --> 00:25:37.180
 what

00:25:37.180 --> 00:25:37.640
 grace

00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:38.080
 actually

00:25:38.080 --> 00:25:38.560
 means,

00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:39.119
 but

00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:39.579
 never

00:25:39.579 --> 00:25:40.039
 having

00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:41.059
 experienced

00:25:41.059 --> 00:25:41.519
 it,

00:25:42.519 --> 00:25:45.339
 act

00:25:45.339 --> 00:25:45.779
 on it

00:25:45.779 --> 00:25:46.179
 now

00:25:46.179 --> 00:25:47.839
 so that

00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:48.039
 we

00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:48.819
 pass

00:25:48.819 --> 00:25:49.359
 the

00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:49.980
 test.

00:25:50.980 --> 00:25:51.220
 So

00:25:51.220 --> 00:25:51.500
 that's

00:25:51.500 --> 00:25:51.720
 good

00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:51.960
 news

00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:52.279
 if we

00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:52.619
 fail

00:25:52.619 --> 00:25:52.819
 the

00:25:52.819 --> 00:25:53.079
 test.

00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:53.879
 Here's

00:25:53.879 --> 00:25:54.179
 good

00:25:54.179 --> 00:25:54.579
 news

00:25:54.579 --> 00:25:55.019
 if we

00:25:55.019 --> 00:25:55.299
 do

00:25:55.299 --> 00:25:55.759
 pass

00:25:55.759 --> 00:25:56.000
 the

00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:56.440
 test.

00:25:56.980 --> 00:25:57.139
 We

00:25:57.139 --> 00:25:57.480
 have

00:25:57.480 --> 00:25:58.159
 assurance

00:25:58.159 --> 00:25:58.579
 and

00:25:58.579 --> 00:25:59.059
 confidence.

00:25:59.720 --> 00:26:00.000
 Look at

00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:00.179
 this

00:26:00.179 --> 00:26:00.460
 verse

00:26:00.460 --> 00:26:00.700
 with

00:26:00.700 --> 00:26:00.879
 me.

 Chapter

 verse

00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:03.419

00:26:07.539 --> 00:26:08.060
 Corinthians

00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:10.120
 verse

00:26:10.120 --> 00:26:10.759
 21.

00:26:11.600 --> 00:26:12.160
 Good

00:26:12.160 --> 00:26:12.640
 news

00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:13.060
 if we

00:26:13.060 --> 00:26:13.240
 have

00:26:13.240 --> 00:26:13.759
 passed

00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:14.039
 the

00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:14.620
 test.

00:26:17.120 --> 00:26:17.920
 Do you

00:26:17.920 --> 00:26:18.240
 see it

00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:18.480
 there?

00:26:18.600 --> 00:26:19.019
 Now it

00:26:19.019 --> 00:26:19.720
 is God

00:26:19.720 --> 00:26:20.380
 who makes

00:26:20.380 --> 00:26:20.860
 both

00:26:20.860 --> 00:26:21.400
 us

00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:22.180
 and

00:26:22.180 --> 00:26:22.560
 you

00:26:22.560 --> 00:26:23.360
 stand

00:26:23.360 --> 00:26:23.980
 firm.

00:26:24.600 --> 00:26:24.880
 So

00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:25.300
 God

00:26:25.300 --> 00:26:25.500
 who

00:26:25.500 --> 00:26:25.900
 called

00:26:25.900 --> 00:26:26.080
 you

00:26:26.080 --> 00:26:26.300
 will

00:26:26.300 --> 00:26:26.640
 hold

00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:26.880
 you.

00:26:27.340 --> 00:26:27.460
 He

00:26:27.460 --> 00:26:28.019
 anointed

00:26:28.019 --> 00:26:28.560
 us,

00:26:29.100 --> 00:26:29.360
 set

00:26:29.360 --> 00:26:29.580
 his

00:26:29.580 --> 00:26:29.960
 seal

00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:30.140
 of

00:26:30.140 --> 00:26:30.519
 ownership

00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:30.860
 on

00:26:30.860 --> 00:26:31.100
 us

00:26:31.100 --> 00:26:31.620
 and

00:26:31.620 --> 00:26:32.039
 put

00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:32.380
 his

00:26:32.380 --> 00:26:32.820
 spirit

00:26:32.819 --> 00:26:33.200
 in

00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:33.419
 our

00:26:33.419 --> 00:26:33.839
 hearts

00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:34.439
 as

00:26:34.439 --> 00:26:34.599
 a

00:26:34.599 --> 00:26:35.139
 deposit

00:26:35.139 --> 00:26:37.139
 guaranteeing

00:26:37.139 --> 00:26:39.359
 no

00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:39.980
 doubts

00:26:39.980 --> 00:26:41.419
 absolute

00:26:41.419 --> 00:26:42.259
 assurance

00:26:42.259 --> 00:26:43.480
 of

00:26:43.480 --> 00:26:43.720
 what

00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:43.960
 is

00:26:43.960 --> 00:26:44.159
 to

00:26:44.159 --> 00:26:44.519
 come.

00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:48.500
 Let's

00:26:48.500 --> 00:26:48.980
 go back

00:26:48.980 --> 00:26:49.220
 to

00:26:49.220 --> 00:26:49.559
 chapter

00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:50.259
 13.

00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:54.399
 So

00:26:54.399 --> 00:26:54.639
 we

00:26:54.639 --> 00:26:54.899
 should

00:26:54.899 --> 00:26:55.619
 examine

00:26:55.619 --> 00:26:56.279
 ourselves

00:26:56.279 --> 00:26:57.000
 to see

00:26:57.000 --> 00:26:57.299
 whether

00:26:57.299 --> 00:26:57.759
 we are

00:26:57.759 --> 00:26:58.359
 in the

00:26:58.359 --> 00:26:58.700
 faith

00:26:58.700 --> 00:26:58.919
 and

00:26:58.919 --> 00:26:59.200
 know

00:26:59.200 --> 00:26:59.439
 that

00:26:59.439 --> 00:26:59.779
 because

00:26:59.779 --> 00:27:00.019
 of

00:27:00.019 --> 00:27:00.399
 God's

00:27:00.399 --> 00:27:00.679
 grace

00:27:00.679 --> 00:27:00.899
 if

00:27:00.899 --> 00:27:01.039
 we

00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:01.500
 fail

00:27:01.500 --> 00:27:02.720
 we

00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:03.079
 can

00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:03.700
 pass

00:27:03.700 --> 00:27:04.059
 because

00:27:04.059 --> 00:27:04.339
 of

00:27:04.339 --> 00:27:04.519
 his

00:27:04.519 --> 00:27:05.039
 grace

00:27:05.039 --> 00:27:06.519
 and

00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:06.680
 if

00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:06.859
 we

00:27:06.859 --> 00:27:07.079
 do

00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:07.680
 pass

00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:08.720
 there

00:27:08.720 --> 00:27:08.960
 is

00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:09.599
 assurance

00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:10.059
 and

00:27:10.059 --> 00:27:10.579
 confidence

00:27:10.579 --> 00:27:11.759
 because

00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:12.299
 of what

00:27:12.299 --> 00:27:12.660
 Jesus

00:27:12.660 --> 00:27:12.980
 has

00:27:12.980 --> 00:27:13.319
 done.

00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:14.920
 We

00:27:14.920 --> 00:27:15.160
 would

00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:15.359
 do

00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:15.680
 well

00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:15.960
 to

00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:16.279
 pray

00:27:16.279 --> 00:27:16.640
 this

00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:17.220
 prayer

00:27:17.220 --> 00:27:18.880
 daily

00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:19.500
 in

00:27:19.500 --> 00:27:19.700
 our

00:27:19.700 --> 00:27:20.079
 life.

00:27:20.200 --> 00:27:20.299
 It

00:27:20.299 --> 00:27:20.559
 comes

00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:20.779
 from

00:27:20.779 --> 00:27:21.099
 Psalm

00:27:21.099 --> 00:27:22.400

00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:23.660

00:27:23.660 --> 00:27:23.680
 search

00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:23.980
 me

00:27:23.980 --> 00:27:24.600
 God

00:27:24.600 --> 00:27:25.960
 and

00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:26.380
 know

00:27:26.380 --> 00:27:26.700
 my

00:27:26.700 --> 00:27:27.259
 heart

00:27:27.259 --> 00:27:28.920
 test

00:27:28.920 --> 00:27:29.360
 me

00:27:29.360 --> 00:27:30.460
 and

00:27:30.460 --> 00:27:30.840
 know

00:27:30.840 --> 00:27:31.200
 my

00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:31.720
 anxious

00:27:31.720 --> 00:27:32.420
 thoughts

00:27:32.420 --> 00:27:34.040
 see

00:27:34.040 --> 00:27:34.240
 if

00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:34.460
 there

00:27:34.460 --> 00:27:34.640
 is

00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:34.880
 any

00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:35.420
 offensive

00:27:35.420 --> 00:27:35.800
 way

00:27:35.800 --> 00:27:36.000
 in

00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:36.320
 me

00:27:36.320 --> 00:27:37.820
 and

00:27:37.820 --> 00:27:38.200
 lead

00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:38.460
 me

00:27:38.460 --> 00:27:38.640
 in

00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:38.780
 the

00:27:38.780 --> 00:27:39.180
 way

00:27:39.180 --> 00:27:40.640
 everlasting.

00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:43.060
 So

00:27:43.060 --> 00:27:43.519
 exercise

00:27:43.519 --> 00:27:44.200
 two

00:27:44.200 --> 00:27:45.600
 examine

00:27:45.600 --> 00:27:46.620
 our

00:27:46.620 --> 00:27:47.320
 hearts.

00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:49.519
 Exercise

00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:50.259
 three

00:27:50.259 --> 00:27:52.240
 pray

00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:53.460
 for

00:27:53.460 --> 00:27:54.339
 restoration.

00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:56.319
 Look at

00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:56.539
 verse

00:27:56.539 --> 00:27:56.960
 seven.

00:27:59.039 --> 00:27:59.779
 Now

00:27:59.779 --> 00:28:00.019
 we

00:28:00.019 --> 00:28:00.519
 pray

00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:00.799
 to

00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:01.240
 God

00:28:01.240 --> 00:28:02.220
 that

00:28:02.220 --> 00:28:02.379
 you

00:28:02.379 --> 00:28:02.599
 will

00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:02.920
 not

00:28:02.920 --> 00:28:03.259
 do

00:28:03.259 --> 00:28:03.900
 anything

00:28:03.900 --> 00:28:04.440
 wrong.

00:28:05.920 --> 00:28:06.619
 Now

00:28:06.619 --> 00:28:06.900
 jump

00:28:06.900 --> 00:28:07.180
 down

00:28:07.180 --> 00:28:07.500
 to the

00:28:07.500 --> 00:28:07.700
 end

00:28:07.700 --> 00:28:07.839
 of

00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:08.099
 verse

00:28:08.099 --> 00:28:08.539
 nine.

00:28:10.220 --> 00:28:10.579
 And

00:28:10.579 --> 00:28:10.839
 our

00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:11.420
 prayer

00:28:11.420 --> 00:28:11.799
 is

00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:12.039
 that

00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:12.400
 you

00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:12.720
 may

00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:13.000
 be

00:28:13.000 --> 00:28:13.639
 fully

00:28:13.639 --> 00:28:14.379
 restored.

00:28:15.940 --> 00:28:16.299
 A

00:28:16.299 --> 00:28:16.740
 prayer

00:28:16.740 --> 00:28:17.079
 for

00:28:17.079 --> 00:28:17.839
 restoration.

00:28:18.579 --> 00:28:18.700
 You

00:28:18.700 --> 00:28:18.940
 see

00:28:18.940 --> 00:28:19.480
 drift

00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:19.880
 can

00:28:19.880 --> 00:28:20.360
 happen

00:28:20.360 --> 00:28:21.000
 in

00:28:21.000 --> 00:28:21.160
 the

00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:21.440
 life

00:28:21.440 --> 00:28:21.580
 of

00:28:21.580 --> 00:28:21.740
 the

00:28:21.740 --> 00:28:22.220
 church.

00:28:22.940 --> 00:28:23.259
 When

00:28:23.259 --> 00:28:23.440
 we

00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:23.799
 don't

00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:24.220
 deal

00:28:24.220 --> 00:28:24.500
 with

00:28:24.500 --> 00:28:24.740
 our

00:28:24.740 --> 00:28:25.120
 sin

00:28:25.120 --> 00:28:26.039
 and

00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:26.180
 when

00:28:26.180 --> 00:28:26.380
 we

00:28:26.380 --> 00:28:26.759
 stop

00:28:26.759 --> 00:28:27.420
 examining

00:28:27.420 --> 00:28:27.740
 our

00:28:27.740 --> 00:28:28.320
 hearts

00:28:28.320 --> 00:28:29.460
 that's

00:28:29.460 --> 00:28:29.620
 the

00:28:29.620 --> 00:28:29.840
 very

00:28:29.840 --> 00:28:30.279
 moment

00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:30.500
 we

00:28:30.500 --> 00:28:30.940
 become

00:28:30.940 --> 00:28:31.440
 weak

00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:32.320
 and

00:28:32.320 --> 00:28:32.580
 not

00:28:32.580 --> 00:28:33.100
 strong.

00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:34.880
 And

00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:35.019
 the

00:28:35.019 --> 00:28:35.240
 only

00:28:35.240 --> 00:28:35.580
 right

00:28:35.580 --> 00:28:36.180
 response

00:28:36.180 --> 00:28:36.539
 for

00:28:36.539 --> 00:28:36.820
 that

00:28:36.820 --> 00:28:37.140
 is

00:28:37.140 --> 00:28:37.340
 that

00:28:37.340 --> 00:28:37.500
 we

00:28:37.500 --> 00:28:37.740
 would

00:28:37.740 --> 00:28:38.140
 pray

00:28:38.140 --> 00:28:38.600
 for

00:28:38.600 --> 00:28:39.620
 full

00:28:39.620 --> 00:28:40.900
 restoration.

00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:42.620
 In

00:28:42.620 --> 00:28:42.860
 fact

00:28:42.860 --> 00:28:43.120
 in

00:28:43.120 --> 00:28:43.400
 verse

00:28:43.400 --> 00:28:43.980
 eleven

00:28:43.980 --> 00:28:46.340
 we're

00:28:46.340 --> 00:28:46.880
 encouraged

00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:47.180
 to

00:28:47.180 --> 00:28:47.960
 strive

00:28:47.960 --> 00:28:48.420
 for

00:28:48.420 --> 00:28:49.160
 full

00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:50.519
 restoration.

00:28:53.779 --> 00:28:54.539
 Now

00:28:54.539 --> 00:28:54.920
 when we

00:28:54.920 --> 00:28:55.319
 stop

00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:55.600
 our

00:28:55.600 --> 00:28:56.200
 physical

00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:57.140
 exercising

00:28:57.140 --> 00:28:58.220
 our

00:28:58.220 --> 00:28:58.600
 health

00:28:58.600 --> 00:28:58.880
 can

00:28:58.880 --> 00:28:59.779
 deteriorate

00:28:59.779 --> 00:29:00.539
 but

00:29:00.539 --> 00:29:00.960
 when we

00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:01.460
 get out

00:29:01.460 --> 00:29:02.039
 into the

00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:02.440
 walking

00:29:02.440 --> 00:29:03.579
 and do

00:29:03.579 --> 00:29:03.880
 some

00:29:03.880 --> 00:29:04.299
 running

00:29:04.299 --> 00:29:04.960
 or whatever

00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:05.480
 we do

00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:06.019
 for our

00:29:06.019 --> 00:29:06.940
 fitness

00:29:06.940 --> 00:29:08.000
 then

00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:08.360
 our

00:29:08.360 --> 00:29:08.900
 body

00:29:08.900 --> 00:29:09.840
 it

00:29:09.840 --> 00:29:10.259
 almost

00:29:10.259 --> 00:29:11.259
 restores

00:29:11.259 --> 00:29:11.880
 itself

00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:12.279
 doesn't

00:29:12.279 --> 00:29:12.400
 it?

00:29:12.460 --> 00:29:12.799
 We're

00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:13.319
 able to

00:29:13.319 --> 00:29:13.500
 do

00:29:13.500 --> 00:29:13.860
 things

00:29:13.860 --> 00:29:14.180
 that we

00:29:14.180 --> 00:29:14.440
 weren't

00:29:14.440 --> 00:29:14.880
 able to

00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:15.059
 do

00:29:15.059 --> 00:29:15.480
 before.

00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:16.019
 Our

00:29:16.019 --> 00:29:16.480
 body

00:29:16.480 --> 00:29:16.720
 is

00:29:16.720 --> 00:29:17.039
 made

00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:17.660
 useful

00:29:17.660 --> 00:29:18.120
 again.

00:29:19.099 --> 00:29:19.299
 Well

00:29:19.299 --> 00:29:19.640
 that's

00:29:19.640 --> 00:29:20.099
 exactly

00:29:20.099 --> 00:29:20.400
 what

00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:20.579
 the

00:29:20.579 --> 00:29:20.860
 prayer

00:29:20.860 --> 00:29:21.160
 is

00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:21.500
 here.

00:29:21.500 --> 00:29:22.079
 That

00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:22.259
 we

00:29:22.259 --> 00:29:22.480
 would

00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:22.700
 be

00:29:22.700 --> 00:29:23.519
 restored

00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:23.920
 to

00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:24.500
 full

00:29:24.500 --> 00:29:25.319
 spiritual

00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:25.799
 health.

00:29:26.220 --> 00:29:26.360
 That

00:29:26.360 --> 00:29:26.539
 we

00:29:26.539 --> 00:29:26.759
 would

00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:26.940
 be

00:29:26.940 --> 00:29:27.360
 made

00:29:27.360 --> 00:29:28.279
 useful

00:29:28.279 --> 00:29:29.059
 rather

00:29:29.059 --> 00:29:29.380
 than

00:29:29.380 --> 00:29:29.920
 drifting

00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:30.620
 we

00:29:30.620 --> 00:29:30.839
 would

00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:31.140
 be

00:29:31.140 --> 00:29:31.720
 in

00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:32.099
 the

00:29:32.099 --> 00:29:32.599
 service

00:29:32.599 --> 00:29:32.839
 of

00:29:32.839 --> 00:29:33.279
 God's

00:29:33.279 --> 00:29:33.700
 people.

00:29:36.299 --> 00:29:37.019
 Now

00:29:37.019 --> 00:29:37.319
 let's

00:29:37.319 --> 00:29:37.480
 be

00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:37.740
 very

00:29:37.740 --> 00:29:38.079
 clear

00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:38.440
 being

00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:39.019
 restored

00:29:39.019 --> 00:29:39.400
 doesn't

00:29:39.400 --> 00:29:39.599
 mean

00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:39.819
 we

00:29:39.819 --> 00:29:40.839
 reach

00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:41.019
 a

00:29:41.019 --> 00:29:41.380
 standard

00:29:41.380 --> 00:29:41.660
 of

00:29:41.660 --> 00:29:42.160
 perfection

00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:42.880
 that

00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:43.060
 we'll

00:29:45.620 --> 00:29:45.759
 No

00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:46.120
 being

00:29:46.120 --> 00:29:46.779
 restored

00:29:46.779 --> 00:29:47.040

00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:47.420
 we

00:29:47.420 --> 00:29:47.660
 will

00:29:47.660 --> 00:29:48.080
 do

00:29:48.080 --> 00:29:48.340
 the

00:29:48.340 --> 00:29:49.160
 exercises

 God

00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:50.160
 words

00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:50.519
 gives

00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:50.840
 us

00:29:50.840 --> 00:29:51.600
 dealing

00:29:53.540 --> 00:29:54.340
 that

00:29:54.340 --> 00:29:54.680
 is

00:29:54.680 --> 00:29:55.160
 what

 Christian

00:29:57.440 --> 00:29:57.980
 life

00:29:57.980 --> 00:29:58.519
 is

00:29:58.519 --> 00:29:59.000
 like.

00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:00.480
 The

00:30:00.480 --> 00:30:01.160
 disciplines

00:30:01.160 --> 00:30:01.580
 that

00:30:01.580 --> 00:30:01.940
 God

00:30:01.940 --> 00:30:02.320
 gives

 us

00:30:02.580 --> 00:30:02.960
 for

00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:03.279
 our

 good.

00:30:05.160 --> 00:30:05.340
 You

00:30:05.340 --> 00:30:05.540
 see

00:30:05.540 --> 00:30:05.779
 this

00:30:05.779 --> 00:30:06.160
 prayer

00:30:06.160 --> 00:30:06.420
 is

00:30:06.420 --> 00:30:07.100
 powerful.

00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:07.740
 Look

00:30:08.120 --> 00:30:08.600
 9.

00:30:10.120 --> 00:30:10.240
 We

 are

 glad

00:30:11.040 --> 00:30:11.500
 whenever

00:30:11.500 --> 00:30:11.799
 we

00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:12.000
 are

00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:12.420
 weak

00:30:12.420 --> 00:30:12.740
 but

00:30:12.740 --> 00:30:12.960
 you

00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:13.140
 are

00:30:16.940 --> 00:30:17.720
 As

00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:18.059
 we

00:30:18.059 --> 00:30:18.740
 pray

00:30:18.740 --> 00:30:20.839
 God's

00:30:20.839 --> 00:30:21.319
 power

00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:21.859
 is at

00:30:21.859 --> 00:30:22.339
 work

00:30:22.339 --> 00:30:22.940
 in

00:30:22.940 --> 00:30:23.160
 our

00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:23.660
 life.

00:30:25.059 --> 00:30:25.960
 So

00:30:25.960 --> 00:30:26.460
 let's

00:30:26.460 --> 00:30:26.880
 commit

00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:27.480
 ourselves

00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:27.980
 to the

00:30:27.980 --> 00:30:28.579
 exercise

00:30:28.579 --> 00:30:29.480
 of

00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:29.940
 praying

00:30:29.940 --> 00:30:30.259
 for

00:30:30.259 --> 00:30:30.960
 restoration

00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:31.680
 in

00:30:31.680 --> 00:30:31.880
 our

00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:32.160
 own

00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:32.799
 lives

00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:34.359
 and

00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:34.519
 in

00:30:34.519 --> 00:30:34.680
 the

00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:34.980
 lives

00:30:34.980 --> 00:30:35.160
 of

00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:35.400
 each

00:30:35.400 --> 00:30:35.720
 other.

00:30:37.339 --> 00:30:38.259
 So

00:30:38.259 --> 00:30:38.640
 that's

00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:39.160
 exercise

00:30:39.160 --> 00:30:40.700
 three.

00:30:41.500 --> 00:30:42.660
 Then

00:30:42.660 --> 00:30:43.240
 last

00:30:43.240 --> 00:30:44.700
 exercise

00:30:44.700 --> 00:30:46.259
 four.

00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:48.420
 Encourage

00:30:48.420 --> 00:30:49.619
 each

00:30:49.619 --> 00:30:50.059
 other.

00:30:51.019 --> 00:30:51.579
 Look

00:30:51.579 --> 00:30:51.700
 at

00:30:51.700 --> 00:30:51.940
 verse

00:30:51.940 --> 00:30:52.359
 11.

00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:54.940
 Finally

00:30:54.940 --> 00:30:56.640
 brothers

00:30:56.640 --> 00:30:57.380
 and

00:30:57.380 --> 00:30:58.099
 sisters

00:30:58.099 --> 00:30:59.519
 rejoice.

00:31:01.019 --> 00:31:01.240
 You

00:31:01.240 --> 00:31:01.440
 see

00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:03.440
 and

00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:03.799
 sisters.

00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:04.180
 It's

00:31:04.180 --> 00:31:04.420
 not

00:31:04.420 --> 00:31:04.660
 an

00:31:04.660 --> 00:31:05.240
 individual

00:31:05.240 --> 00:31:05.740
 lived

00:31:05.740 --> 00:31:06.000
 out

00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:06.720
 experience.

00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:07.519
 The

00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:08.039
 Christian

00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:08.700
 life is

00:31:08.700 --> 00:31:09.019
 never

00:31:09.019 --> 00:31:09.380
 to be

00:31:09.380 --> 00:31:09.640
 lived

00:31:09.640 --> 00:31:10.000
 alone.

00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:10.619
 We

00:31:10.619 --> 00:31:11.339
 need

00:31:11.339 --> 00:31:11.940
 one

00:31:11.940 --> 00:31:12.380
 another.

00:31:13.740 --> 00:31:14.460
 So

00:31:14.460 --> 00:31:14.759
 look what

00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:15.299
 it says

00:31:15.299 --> 00:31:15.700
 verse

00:31:15.700 --> 00:31:16.079
 11.

00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:17.359
 Finally

00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:17.779
 brothers

00:31:17.779 --> 00:31:18.059
 and

00:31:18.059 --> 00:31:18.400

00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:19.220
 rejoice

00:31:19.220 --> 00:31:20.700
 strive

00:31:20.700 --> 00:31:21.079
 for

00:31:21.079 --> 00:31:21.460
 full

00:31:21.460 --> 00:31:22.279

00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:23.900
 encourage

00:31:23.900 --> 00:31:25.039

00:31:25.039 --> 00:31:26.079
 another.

00:31:27.079 --> 00:31:27.799
 Verse

00:31:27.799 --> 00:31:28.259
 12.

00:31:28.740 --> 00:31:29.259
 Greet

00:31:29.259 --> 00:31:30.519
 one

00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:31.279
 another

00:31:31.279 --> 00:31:31.839
 with a

00:31:31.839 --> 00:31:32.140
 holy

00:31:32.140 --> 00:31:32.539
 kiss

00:31:32.539 --> 00:31:32.980
 or a

00:31:32.980 --> 00:31:33.220
 fist

00:31:33.220 --> 00:31:33.539
 bump

00:31:33.539 --> 00:31:33.859
 or a

00:31:33.859 --> 00:31:34.319
 handshake

00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:34.599
 or a

00:31:34.599 --> 00:31:34.799
 hug

00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:35.519
 or whatever

00:31:35.519 --> 00:31:36.259

00:31:36.259 --> 00:31:36.839
 sensitive

00:31:36.839 --> 00:31:37.599
 to you.

00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:42.639
 Now I

00:31:42.639 --> 00:31:42.919
 don't know

00:31:42.919 --> 00:31:43.480
 about you

00:31:43.480 --> 00:31:43.819
 but

00:31:43.819 --> 00:31:45.259
 getting

00:31:45.259 --> 00:31:45.859
 to do

00:31:45.859 --> 00:31:46.379
 exercise

00:31:46.379 --> 00:31:47.159
 is hard.

00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:47.439
 There's

00:31:47.439 --> 00:31:47.779
 always

00:31:47.779 --> 00:31:48.619
 easier

00:31:48.619 --> 00:31:49.240
 things to

00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:49.439
 do

00:31:49.439 --> 00:31:49.720
 isn't

00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:49.959
 there?

00:31:50.299 --> 00:31:50.740
 Like

00:31:50.740 --> 00:31:50.980
 just

00:31:50.980 --> 00:31:51.299
 sitting

00:31:51.299 --> 00:31:51.659
 on the

00:31:51.659 --> 00:31:52.099
 couch.

00:31:53.339 --> 00:31:54.019
 It's

00:31:54.019 --> 00:31:54.459
 hard

00:31:54.459 --> 00:31:54.799
 to

00:31:54.799 --> 00:31:55.439
 motivate

00:31:55.439 --> 00:31:56.099
 yourself

00:31:56.099 --> 00:31:56.399
 to

00:31:56.399 --> 00:31:56.899
 keep

00:31:56.899 --> 00:31:57.519
 going

00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:58.720
 to

00:31:58.720 --> 00:31:58.939
 get

00:31:58.939 --> 00:31:59.179
 out

00:31:59.179 --> 00:31:59.399
 for

00:31:59.399 --> 00:31:59.619
 that

00:31:59.619 --> 00:32:00.179
 walk.

00:32:00.779 --> 00:32:01.159
 It's

00:32:01.159 --> 00:32:01.559
 much

00:32:01.559 --> 00:32:02.039
 easier

00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:02.399
 if you

00:32:02.399 --> 00:32:02.559
 have

00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:02.919
 people

00:32:02.919 --> 00:32:03.279
 around

00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:03.480
 you

00:32:03.480 --> 00:32:03.699
 to

00:32:03.699 --> 00:32:04.179
 encourage

00:32:04.179 --> 00:32:04.519
 you.

00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:05.619
 Well here

00:32:05.619 --> 00:32:06.099
 we are.

00:32:06.480 --> 00:32:06.660
 Look

00:32:06.660 --> 00:32:06.960
 around

00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:07.180

00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:07.519
 God

00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:07.740
 has

00:32:07.740 --> 00:32:08.180
 placed

00:32:08.180 --> 00:32:08.420
 you

00:32:08.420 --> 00:32:08.680
 into

00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:08.900
 a

00:32:08.900 --> 00:32:09.379
 community

00:32:09.379 --> 00:32:09.700
 of

00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:10.139
 people

00:32:10.139 --> 00:32:10.920
 to

00:32:10.920 --> 00:32:11.420
 encourage

00:32:11.420 --> 00:32:11.779
 you

00:32:11.779 --> 00:32:11.980
 and

00:32:11.980 --> 00:32:12.519
 support

00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:13.000

00:32:18.059 --> 00:32:18.740
 So

00:32:23.619 --> 00:32:24.299
 Well

00:32:24.299 --> 00:32:25.940
 we're just

00:32:25.940 --> 00:32:26.259
 going to

00:32:26.259 --> 00:32:26.920
