WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.040
 Well, good evening, and it's good to be with you again this evening.

00:00:05.960 --> 00:00:09.120
 We've had a joyful day here in Lewis.

00:00:09.220 --> 00:00:12.300
 We were able to visit the sister congregation in Carloway

00:00:12.300 --> 00:00:15.720
 and to celebrate with them the refurbishment of their building.

00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:19.120
 And it's great to be back together with you this evening.

00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:24.379
 We're going to begin our time by singing to God's praise.

00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:27.920
 And before we do, I wanted to read some words from the 98th Psalm,

00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:29.940
 which we'll sing in just a moment.

00:00:30.980 --> 00:00:31.820
 But the psalmist writes,

00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:36.439
 So sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvellous things.

00:00:36.899 --> 00:00:40.359
 His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:43.939
 Make a joyful noise to the Lord all the earth.

00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:48.179
 Break forth into joyous song and sing praises.

00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:52.620
 Well, let's begin our time together this evening in doing just that,

00:00:52.620 --> 00:00:59.760
 as we sing together the first six verses of the Sing Psalms version of Psalm 98.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.760
 We'll sing Psalm 98 to the tune, Gainsborough.

00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:11.100
 O sing a new song to the Lord.

00:01:11.099 --> 00:01:15.919
 O sing a new song to the Lord.

00:01:15.919 --> 00:01:25.079
 O sing a new song to the Lord.

00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:29.079
 O sing a new song, dear the Lord.

00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:36.620
 For what wonders he has done.

00:01:36.620 --> 00:01:45.980
 His right hand and hand, his holy arm,

00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:53.980
 The victory have won.

00:01:53.980 --> 00:02:04.080
 The Lord declared his saving word,

00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:11.079
 And made it to be known.

00:02:11.079 --> 00:02:21.079
 To all the nations of the world,

00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:28.080
 His righteousness is sure.

00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:39.080
 His steadfast love and faithfulness,

00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:46.080
 He has remembered well.

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:56.080
 The covenant he made with them,

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:02.080
 The hearts of Israel.

00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:14.080
 And all the nations of the earth,

00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:21.080
 Have seen what God has done.

00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:31.080
 Our God who prays deliver us,

00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:40.080
 By his right hand alone.

00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:50.080
 Acclaim the Lord, O all the earth,

00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:57.080
 Shall loudly and rejoice,

00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:07.080
 Make music and be jubilant,

00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:15.080
 To them with a pure voice.

00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:25.080
 With heart make music to the Lord,

00:04:25.080 --> 00:04:32.080
 With heart his praises sing,

00:04:32.080 --> 00:04:42.080
 With trumpet and with all rejoice,

00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:59.079
 Before the Lord again.

00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:04.079
 Let's continue now in praying to our gracious God and Father.

00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:06.079
 Let us pray together.

00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:13.079
 Gracious God, we do rejoice this night,

00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:18.079
 As we lift up our voices to praise you,

00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:23.079
 As we sing to you a new song.

00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:26.079
 Lord, we remember that you are the king,

00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:29.079
 Over this whole world.

00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:33.079
 Before you the nations are a drop in a bucket,

00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:37.079
 They are as dust in your hand.

00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:39.079
 For you are the king of kings,

00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:44.079
 And the Lord of lords.

00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:47.079
 We bow our knees before you,

00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:48.079
 Our gracious God,

00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:51.079
 Knowing that you are the one who holds sway

00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:54.079
 Over all the peoples.

00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:56.079
 And that you are the one who has sent salvation

00:05:56.079 --> 00:06:00.079
 To all lands.

00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.079
 That you are saving work.

00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:05.079
 That your righteousness about which we have sung

00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:08.079
 Has been made known to all nations.

00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:12.079
 In and through your son.

00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.079
 Our savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:21.079
 And so this evening we turn our attention to him.

00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:25.079
 Giving him the love and the praise of our hearts.

00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:29.079
 Recognizing that he is the one by whom,

00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:31.079
 And through whom,

00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:34.079
 And for whom all things were created.

00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:40.079
 We humble ourselves before the one who stepped down.

00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:44.079
 Who stepped into this world that he had made.

00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:50.079
 And which we had tarnished with our sin and our disobedience.

00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:57.079
 We thank you that he was willing to go all the way to Calvary's cross.

00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:01.079
 To experience rejection at the hands of men.

00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:05.079
 To taste death for all.

00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:08.079
 To suffer for us.

00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:12.079
 That we might be redeemed from our sins.

00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:16.079
 We might be reconciled to you as our God and as our Father.

00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:19.079
 And that we might one day.

00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:26.079
 Be presented holy and blameless and above reproach before you.

00:07:26.079 --> 00:07:29.079
 And so we rejoice.

00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:33.079
 As the psalmist rejoiced in your victory.

00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:36.079
 In your mighty works of salvation.

00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:37.079
 In your righteousness.

00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:40.079
 In your righteousness.

00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:45.079
 We are conscious that one day the world will be judged in righteousness.

00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:47.079
 But this day, this night.

00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:51.079
 The judge comes to us as Lord and Savior.

00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:56.079
 And he speaks to us once more of your steadfast love.

00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:58.079
 And of your faithfulness.

00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:04.079
 This weekend we are reminded once more of the new covenant made in his blood.

00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:09.079
 A covenant that promises to us the forgiveness of all of our sins.

00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:13.079
 That promises that our hearts might be filled with your Holy Spirit.

00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.079
 And that we might walk in newness of life.

00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:22.079
 Gracious God, as we gather tonight.

00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:24.079
 To worship you.

00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.079
 To wait on you.

00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:28.079
 To hear what you have to say.

00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:33.079
 We ask that the peace of Christ might dwell among us.

00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:39.080
 That we might dwell together in peace and unity.

00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:44.080
 That we might maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bonds of peace.

00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:49.080
 Grant us, we pray, soft hearts.

00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:50.080
 To forgive one another.

00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:52.080
 To bear with one another.

00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:56.080
 If there has been any wrong committed against us.

00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:00.080
 Help us to put on compassionate hearts.

00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:06.080
 And to be reminded once more of what we have been forgiven from in Christ.

00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:11.080
 That we might graciously forgive others.

00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:17.080
 As we have freely received, so might we freely give.

00:09:17.080 --> 00:09:23.080
 So we ask you, Lord, help us to walk in newness of life.

00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:26.080
 To live in unity.

00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:29.080
 As brothers and sisters should.

00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:35.080
 That you might bestow the blessing upon us as individuals.

00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.080
 And as a congregation of Christ's people.

00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:44.080
 We ask that that itself would be a witness.

00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:47.080
 To the wider world who might look in.

00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:49.080
 Who might listen in.

00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:53.080
 And who might themselves learn of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:55.080
 In whose name we gather.

00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.080
 And in whose name we pray.

00:09:58.080 --> 00:09:59.080
 Amen.

00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:00.080
 Amen.

00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:01.080
 Amen.

00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:02.080
 Amen.

00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:10.080
 Well, last night we thought of true forgiveness.

00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:12.080
 True faithfulness, I should say.

00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:16.080
 As we studied together in Nehemiah chapter 9.

00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:20.080
 The faithfulness of God to his very often unfaithful people.

00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:25.080
 And this evening, in just a moment, we'll read from Matthew chapter 18.

00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:27.080
 And think about true forgiveness.

00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:31.080
 How we, in the gospel, are forgiven all of our sins.

00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:34.080
 They are cast into the very depths of the sea.

00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:38.080
 And how we are therefore to forgive one another.

00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:42.080
 Before we do, we'll sing a psalm once more.

00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:46.080
 We're going to sing the metrical version of Psalm 133.

00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:49.080
 To the tune Ardros.

00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:53.080
 A psalm that speaks of the unity of the Lord's people.

00:10:53.080 --> 00:11:00.080
 And how good and pleasant it is when brothers and sisters dwell together in unity.

00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:03.080
 And so we'll sing together Psalm 133.

00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:11.080
 Behold how good a thing it is and how becoming well together such as brethren are in unity to dwell.

00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:13.080
 We sing together to the praise of God.

00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:15.080
 We sing together to the praise of God.

00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:16.080
 God bless you.

00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:17.080
 Amen.

00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:19.080
 God bless you.

00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:20.080
 God bless you.

00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.080
 God bless you.

00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:28.080
 God bless you.

00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:35.160
 And I'm becoming well

00:11:35.160 --> 00:11:44.660
 Together, sons, a threading heart

00:11:44.660 --> 00:11:52.500
 In unity to dwell

00:11:52.500 --> 00:11:58.500
 Like precious coins

00:11:58.500 --> 00:12:02.500
 Led on the head

00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:07.500
 The thumb of fear

00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:10.500
 Did flow

00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:15.500
 He may prosper

00:12:16.019 --> 00:12:20.679
 And to the skirt

00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:28.679
 Let off his garments go

00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:33.679
 At heaven's dew

00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:38.679
 The dew of the dew

00:12:38.679 --> 00:12:45.679
 On Zion hills descend

00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:51.679
 For hath the blessing

00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:55.679
 God for us

00:12:55.679 --> 00:13:01.679
 Thy path shall never end

00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:03.679
 For hath the blessing

00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:07.679
 For hath the blessing

00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:22.679
 Well I want us to read together now from Matthew chapter 18 and verses 15 down to verse 35

00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:39.679
 If you have the same version as I do of the church bible it's on page 993 but the verses can be found in Matthew chapter 18 beginning at verse 15 with the heading if your brother sins against you

00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:45.679
 Let us hear together

00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:49.679
 Let us hear together the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ

00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:51.679
 If your brother sins against you

00:13:51.679 --> 00:13:53.679
 Go and tell him his fault

00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:57.679
 Between you and him alone

00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:01.679
 If he listens to you you have gained your brother

00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:07.679
 But if he does not listen take one or two others along with you

00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:13.679
 That every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses

00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:17.679
 If he refuses to listen to them

00:14:17.679 --> 00:14:19.679
 Tell it to the church

00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:22.679
 And if he refuses to listen even to the church

00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:27.679
 Let him be to you as a gentile and a tax collector

00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:32.679
 Truly I say to you whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven

00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:36.679
 Whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven

00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:43.679
 Again I say to you if two of you agree on anything on earth about anything they ask

00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:46.679
 It will be done for them by my father in heaven

00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:50.679
 For where two or three are gathered in my name

00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:52.679
 There am I among them

00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:56.679
 Then Peter came up and said to him

00:14:56.679 --> 00:15:01.679
 Lord how often will my brother sin against me and I forgive him?

00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:03.679
 As many as seven times?

00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:06.679
 Jesus said to him

00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:09.679
 I do not say to you seven times

00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:12.679
 But seventy times seven

00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.679
 Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king

00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:19.679
 Who wished to settle accounts with his servants

00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:22.679
 When he began to settle one was brought to him

00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:25.679
 Who owed him ten thousand talents

00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:28.679
 And since he could not pay his master

00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:31.679
 Ordered him to be sold with his wife and children

00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:32.679
 And all that he had

00:15:32.679 --> 00:15:34.679
 And payment to be made

00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:38.679
 So the servant fell on his knees imploring him

00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:40.679
 Have patience with me and I will pay you everything

00:15:40.679 --> 00:15:43.679
 And out of pity for him

00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:47.679
 The master of that servant released him

00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:50.679
 And forgave him the debt

00:15:51.679 --> 00:15:52.679
 But when the same servant went out

00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:54.679
 He found one of his fellow servants

00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:56.679
 Who owed him a hundred denarii

00:15:56.679 --> 00:15:59.679
 And seizing him he began to choke him saying

00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:00.679
 Pay what you owe

00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:04.679
 So his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him

00:16:04.679 --> 00:16:06.679
 Have patience with me and I will pay you

00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:07.679
 I will pay you

00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:09.679
 He refused

00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:12.679
 And went and put him in prison

00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:14.679
 Until he should pay the debt

00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:17.679
 When his fellow servants saw what had taken place

00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:19.679
 They were greatly distressed

00:16:19.679 --> 00:16:21.679
 And they went and reported to their master

00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:22.679
 All that had been

00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:24.679
 All that had taken place

00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:27.679
 Then his master summoned him and said to him

00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:29.679
 You wicked servant

00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:31.679
 I forgave you all the debt

00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:33.679
 Because you pleaded with me

00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:36.679
 And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant

00:16:36.679 --> 00:16:39.679
 As I had mercy on you

00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:43.679
 And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers

00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:45.679
 Until he should pay all his debt

00:16:46.679 --> 00:16:50.679
 So also my heavenly father will do to every one of you

00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:53.679
 If you do not forgive your brother from your heart

00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:59.679
 And we thank God for his word to us

00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:02.679
 Before we study together

00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:04.679
 We'll sing once more

00:17:04.679 --> 00:17:05.679
 This time from Sing Psalms

00:17:06.679 --> 00:17:08.679
 And the 25th Psalm

00:17:09.679 --> 00:17:10.679
 Which we shall sing to the tune

00:17:11.679 --> 00:17:12.679
 Heron Gate

00:17:13.679 --> 00:17:14.679
 Psalm 25

00:17:15.679 --> 00:17:17.679
 To you O Lord I lift my soul

00:17:18.679 --> 00:17:19.679
 I trust in you continually

00:17:20.679 --> 00:17:21.679
 Do not let me be put to shame

00:17:22.679 --> 00:17:24.679
 Nor let my foes gloat over me

00:17:24.680 --> 00:17:25.680
 We sing

00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:26.680
 We sing

00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:27.680
 In verses 1 to verse 7

00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:28.680
 We sing

00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:29.680
 In verses 1 to verse 7

00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:31.680
 To you O Lord I lift my soul

00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:33.680
 I trust in you continually

00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:34.680
 Do not let me be put to shame

00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:35.680
 To you O Lord I lift my soul

00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:40.680
 To you O Lord I lift my soul

00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:42.680
 I trust in you continually

00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:44.680
 I trust in you continually

00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:48.680
 Do not let me be put to shame

00:17:48.680 --> 00:18:00.680
 Do not let me be put to shame

00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:05.680
 Or let my foes gloat over me

00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:08.680
 No one who sets his hope in you

00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:19.680
 No one who sets his hope in you

00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:24.680
 Will ever suffer such his grace

00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:38.680
 But those who act with treachery

00:18:39.680 --> 00:18:47.680
 Humiliating shame will fail

00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:57.680
 O Lord we feel to me your ways

00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:02.680
 And all your paths

00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.680
 Help me to know

00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:16.680
 Direct and guide me in your truth

00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:24.680
 And stop me ever way to go

00:19:24.680 --> 00:19:35.680
 You are my Savior and my God

00:19:35.680 --> 00:19:44.680
 All day I hope in you alone

00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:54.680
 Remember Lord your love and grace

00:19:54.680 --> 00:20:04.680
 Which from past ages you have shown

00:20:04.680 --> 00:20:14.680
 Do not recall my sins of youth

00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:22.680
 Or my rebellious evil ways

00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:32.680
 Remember me in your place of

00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:42.680
 For you O Lord I live in your ways

00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:43.680
 For you O Lord I lift you

00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:44.680
 Amen

00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:45.680
 Amen

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:46.680
 Amen

00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:56.680
 Well let me invite you to keep your Bible open

00:20:56.680 --> 00:20:57.680
 to Matthew 18

00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:01.680
 As we think tonight together

00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:04.680
 of the subject about which we have just sung

00:21:05.680 --> 00:21:07.680
 True forgiveness

00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:12.900
 it's a joy to be together this weekend

00:21:12.900 --> 00:21:14.440
 to share fellowship

00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:17.420
 to share partnership in the gospel

00:21:17.420 --> 00:21:20.200
 and it's a joy to come together

00:21:20.200 --> 00:21:24.000
 and to worship before almighty God

00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:28.279
 and as we prepare our hearts for the services tomorrow

00:21:28.279 --> 00:21:32.039
 I thought it would be good to think on the subject of forgiveness

00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:35.920
 to reflect on the forgiveness of sins promised

00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:41.360
 through the gospel but also to ask if we need to show forgiveness

00:21:41.360 --> 00:21:43.039
 to any in the fellowship

00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:47.720
 or to seek forgiveness from any in the congregation

00:21:47.720 --> 00:21:51.920
 yesterday evening we thought of true faithfulness

00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:53.080
 Nehemiah chapter 9

00:21:53.080 --> 00:21:56.400
 we thought of the faithfulness of God

00:21:56.400 --> 00:22:00.440
 who makes and keeps promises

00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:04.580
 the God of great mercy and steadfast love

00:22:04.579 --> 00:22:09.439
 who forgave his people their sins time and again

00:22:09.439 --> 00:22:11.960
 in the Old Testament history

00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:16.599
 and tonight we'll think about the forgiveness we have received

00:22:16.599 --> 00:22:17.980
 if we are in Christ

00:22:17.980 --> 00:22:21.279
 and the forgiveness we need to show one another

00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:24.740
 if we are together in his church

00:22:24.740 --> 00:22:28.559
 and it's a very important word

00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:29.819
 it's a very relevant word

00:22:29.819 --> 00:22:33.359
 because in life we have all kinds of relationships

00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:37.079
 relationships can be a source of great joy

00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:40.839
 and also a source of great sorrow

00:22:40.839 --> 00:22:43.700
 when these relationships break down

00:22:43.700 --> 00:22:46.480
 our hearts can be heavy

00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:49.660
 I always like to read

00:22:49.660 --> 00:22:52.000
 a kind of history book or biography

00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:55.900
 and the other day I ordered a copy of Paul Allen

00:22:55.900 --> 00:22:56.860
 Idea Man

00:22:56.860 --> 00:23:00.400
 which is a memoir by the co-founder of Microsoft

00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:03.779
 I didn't realise that the history of computer programming

00:23:03.779 --> 00:23:05.059
 was so exciting

00:23:05.059 --> 00:23:06.460
 it's a real page turner

00:23:06.460 --> 00:23:09.940
 and Paul Allen co-founded Microsoft

00:23:09.940 --> 00:23:12.360
 with his childhood friend Bill Gates

00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:14.519
 while they were really just teenagers

00:23:14.519 --> 00:23:16.539
 they worked together

00:23:16.539 --> 00:23:17.839
 for about a decade

00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:19.159
 day and night

00:23:19.159 --> 00:23:20.459
 they worked together

00:23:20.459 --> 00:23:21.799
 they shared a flat

00:23:21.799 --> 00:23:26.719
 but when they turned 30 or so

00:23:26.719 --> 00:23:28.079
 they fell out

00:23:28.079 --> 00:23:31.599
 Paul Allen felt he was mistreated

00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:33.679
 the business partnership

00:23:33.679 --> 00:23:35.199
 effectively ended

00:23:35.199 --> 00:23:37.139
 the personal relationship

00:23:37.139 --> 00:23:38.219
 came to an end

00:23:38.219 --> 00:23:40.359
 though they were later reconciled

00:23:40.359 --> 00:23:43.179
 and it's just one example

00:23:43.179 --> 00:23:45.000
 of a broken relationship

00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:46.859
 such as we see

00:23:46.859 --> 00:23:48.399
 between nations

00:23:48.399 --> 00:23:49.939
 in workplaces

00:23:49.939 --> 00:23:53.500
 in extended families

00:23:53.500 --> 00:23:54.519
 in homes

00:23:54.519 --> 00:23:56.079
 and sadly

00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:57.719
 and all too often

00:23:57.719 --> 00:23:59.939
 in Christian communities

00:23:59.939 --> 00:24:03.759
 the Christian missionary

00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:06.159
 psychiatrist Marjorie Foyle

00:24:06.159 --> 00:24:07.399
 wrote a book

00:24:07.399 --> 00:24:09.259
 about stress

00:24:09.259 --> 00:24:11.220
 among Christian workers

00:24:11.220 --> 00:24:12.799
 and she said

00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:14.299
 the number one reason

00:24:14.299 --> 00:24:15.519
 Christian missionaries

00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:17.160
 leave the field of service

00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:18.819
 is because of conflict

00:24:18.819 --> 00:24:20.900
 with other missionaries

00:24:20.900 --> 00:24:24.819
 but we don't have to go overseas

00:24:24.819 --> 00:24:25.660
 to find

00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:28.000
 relationship difficulties

00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:31.000
 maybe there are churches

00:24:31.000 --> 00:24:32.299
 where you can say

00:24:32.299 --> 00:24:33.059
 well that's the church

00:24:33.059 --> 00:24:34.160
 I used to go to

00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:36.420
 oh that's the church

00:24:36.420 --> 00:24:38.080
 I never go to

00:24:38.080 --> 00:24:39.360
 because of something

00:24:39.360 --> 00:24:39.920
 that happened

00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:40.340
 something

00:24:40.340 --> 00:24:41.680
 that was said

00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:44.360
 so we might attend

00:24:44.360 --> 00:24:44.980
 a convention

00:24:44.980 --> 00:24:46.380
 such as the Keswick Convention

00:24:46.380 --> 00:24:47.440
 with its great motto

00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:49.340
 all one in Christ Jesus

00:24:49.340 --> 00:24:51.920
 we might read

00:24:51.920 --> 00:24:52.960
 a chapter

00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:53.900
 such as Matthew 18

00:24:53.900 --> 00:24:54.700
 we might sing

00:24:54.700 --> 00:24:57.000
 Psalm 133

00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:59.580
 but at the same time

00:24:59.580 --> 00:25:00.200
 there might be

00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:01.480
 someone here tonight

00:25:01.480 --> 00:25:02.500
 that you avoid

00:25:02.500 --> 00:25:03.960
 eye contact with you

00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:05.980
 would not sit next to

00:25:05.980 --> 00:25:06.559
 you perhaps

00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:07.619
 haven't spoken to

00:25:07.619 --> 00:25:08.960
 for years

00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:11.339
 because of something

00:25:11.339 --> 00:25:11.980
 they said

00:25:11.980 --> 00:25:12.400
 or did

00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:13.180
 because of something

00:25:13.180 --> 00:25:14.339
 they didn't say

00:25:14.339 --> 00:25:15.640
 or didn't do

00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:16.180
 that perhaps

00:25:16.180 --> 00:25:17.099
 they should have done

00:25:17.099 --> 00:25:20.019
 and in any gathering

00:25:20.019 --> 00:25:20.559
 of people

00:25:20.559 --> 00:25:22.720
 especially a multicultural

00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:23.980
 multi-generational

00:25:23.980 --> 00:25:24.599
 body

00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:25.299
 such as the

00:25:25.299 --> 00:25:26.319
 Church of Christ

00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:27.059
 there will be

00:25:27.059 --> 00:25:28.440
 differences of opinion

00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:29.700
 there will be

00:25:29.700 --> 00:25:30.420
 disagreements

00:25:30.420 --> 00:25:31.200
 there may be

00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:32.620
 miscommunication

00:25:32.620 --> 00:25:33.820
 and misunderstanding

00:25:33.820 --> 00:25:37.060
 perhaps somebody

00:25:37.060 --> 00:25:37.840
 said something

00:25:37.840 --> 00:25:38.600
 to you

00:25:38.600 --> 00:25:40.240
 perhaps somebody

00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:41.300
 said something

00:25:41.300 --> 00:25:42.060
 about you

00:25:42.060 --> 00:25:43.759
 perhaps behind

00:25:43.759 --> 00:25:44.460
 your back

00:25:44.460 --> 00:25:46.300
 maybe there was

00:25:46.300 --> 00:25:46.880
 a disagreement

00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:47.640
 in the workplace

00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:48.740
 that has spilled over

00:25:48.740 --> 00:25:50.700
 into the Church

00:25:50.700 --> 00:25:51.259
 there are

00:25:51.259 --> 00:25:51.920
 many

00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:52.580
 many

00:25:52.580 --> 00:25:53.580
 reasons

00:25:53.580 --> 00:25:55.440
 why relationships

00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.900
 between brothers

00:25:56.900 --> 00:25:57.900
 and sisters

00:25:57.900 --> 00:25:58.680
 may have been

00:25:58.680 --> 00:25:59.340
 strained

00:25:59.340 --> 00:26:00.240
 or even

00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:01.519
 severed

00:26:01.519 --> 00:26:04.860
 and

00:26:04.860 --> 00:26:05.680
 Matthew 18

00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:06.860
 addresses

00:26:06.860 --> 00:26:07.880
 this

00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:09.180
 subject

00:26:09.180 --> 00:26:10.799
 concerns

00:26:10.799 --> 00:26:11.600
 the parable

00:26:11.600 --> 00:26:12.600
 of an

00:26:12.600 --> 00:26:13.140
 unforgiving

00:26:13.140 --> 00:26:13.660
 servant

00:26:13.660 --> 00:26:15.600
 there are some

00:26:15.600 --> 00:26:16.480
 parables still

00:26:16.480 --> 00:26:17.360
 well known

00:26:17.360 --> 00:26:18.180
 in our culture

00:26:18.180 --> 00:26:20.019
 still alluded to

00:26:20.019 --> 00:26:20.880
 in the wider

00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:21.500
 society

00:26:21.500 --> 00:26:22.620
 the good Samaritan

00:26:22.620 --> 00:26:23.759
 the prodigal son

00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:25.279
 this

00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:26.279
 parable

00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:26.779
 perhaps

00:26:26.779 --> 00:26:27.819
 less well known

00:26:27.819 --> 00:26:28.599
 but no less

00:26:28.599 --> 00:26:29.259
 important

00:26:29.259 --> 00:26:30.859
 and it has

00:26:30.859 --> 00:26:31.700
 much to say

00:26:31.700 --> 00:26:32.579
 tonight

00:26:32.579 --> 00:26:34.160
 about the subject

00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:34.859
 of Christian

00:26:34.859 --> 00:26:35.319
 unity

00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:38.099
 and I suggest

00:26:38.099 --> 00:26:39.099
 it's very important

00:26:39.099 --> 00:26:40.279
 for two reasons

00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:41.220
 firstly as we've just

00:26:41.220 --> 00:26:41.519
 sung

00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:42.579
 it is good

00:26:42.579 --> 00:26:43.819
 and pleasant

00:26:43.819 --> 00:26:45.000
 when brothers

00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:45.720
 and sisters

00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:46.319
 dwell

00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:47.079
 in unity

00:26:47.079 --> 00:26:49.680
 how it must

00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:50.379
 please

00:26:50.379 --> 00:26:51.839
 our heavenly

00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:52.359
 father

00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:53.420
 when his

00:26:53.420 --> 00:26:53.859
 children

00:26:53.859 --> 00:26:54.579
 get on

00:26:54.579 --> 00:26:55.799
 and love

00:26:55.799 --> 00:26:56.339
 one another

00:26:56.339 --> 00:26:59.199
 and secondly

00:26:59.199 --> 00:26:59.720
 because our

00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:00.299
 witness to the

00:27:00.299 --> 00:27:00.879
 world depends

00:27:00.879 --> 00:27:01.299
 upon it

00:27:01.299 --> 00:27:01.799
 did not the

00:27:01.799 --> 00:27:02.259
 Lord Jesus

00:27:02.259 --> 00:27:03.240
 himself say

00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:03.980
 that it is

00:27:03.980 --> 00:27:04.619
 by our

00:27:04.619 --> 00:27:05.240
 love for

00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:05.799
 one another

00:27:05.799 --> 00:27:06.379
 that all

00:27:06.379 --> 00:27:07.019
 men shall

00:27:07.019 --> 00:27:07.460
 know

00:27:07.460 --> 00:27:08.240
 that we

00:27:08.240 --> 00:27:08.819
 are his

00:27:08.819 --> 00:27:09.720
 disciples

00:27:09.720 --> 00:27:13.119
 so the

00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:13.500
 pleasure

00:27:13.500 --> 00:27:14.759
 of God

00:27:14.759 --> 00:27:16.199
 the persuasiveness

00:27:16.199 --> 00:27:17.559
 of the gospel

00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:18.599
 depends upon

00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:19.939
 good and

00:27:19.939 --> 00:27:20.359
 loving

00:27:20.359 --> 00:27:21.419
 relationships

00:27:21.419 --> 00:27:21.859
 between

00:27:21.859 --> 00:27:22.419
 Christians

00:27:22.419 --> 00:27:25.559
 so we'll

00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:26.119
 look together

00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:27.699
 at this

00:27:27.699 --> 00:27:28.119
 parable

00:27:28.119 --> 00:27:29.079
 and the

00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:29.399
 verses

00:27:29.399 --> 00:27:29.819
 which

00:27:29.819 --> 00:27:30.819
 precede it

00:27:30.819 --> 00:27:32.599
 and the

00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:33.159
 whole section

00:27:33.159 --> 00:27:33.500
 of this

00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:34.079
 gospel has

00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:34.339
 to do

00:27:34.339 --> 00:27:34.479
 with

00:27:34.479 --> 00:27:35.019
 relationships

00:27:35.019 --> 00:27:35.459
 between

00:27:35.459 --> 00:27:36.039
 disciples

00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:37.599
 chapter

00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:37.979
 18

00:27:37.979 --> 00:27:38.539
 verse 1

00:27:38.539 --> 00:27:39.839
 we see

00:27:39.839 --> 00:27:40.459
 the disciples

00:27:40.459 --> 00:27:41.159
 are having

00:27:41.159 --> 00:27:41.559
 some

00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:42.319
 issues

00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:42.659
 of their

00:27:42.659 --> 00:27:42.919
 own

00:27:42.919 --> 00:27:44.259
 as they

00:27:44.259 --> 00:27:44.559
 come to

00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:44.839
 the Lord

00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:45.099
 and say

00:27:45.099 --> 00:27:45.399
 who's

00:27:45.399 --> 00:27:46.039
 the greatest

00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:46.959
 who's

00:27:46.959 --> 00:27:47.119
 your

00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:47.559
 favorite

00:27:47.559 --> 00:27:48.659
 who's

00:27:48.659 --> 00:27:49.039
 number

00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:49.479
 one

00:27:49.479 --> 00:27:50.240
 in the

00:27:50.240 --> 00:27:50.579
 kingdom

00:27:50.579 --> 00:27:51.759
 of heaven

00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:53.660
 and so

00:27:53.660 --> 00:27:53.839
 the

00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:54.220
 subsequent

00:27:54.220 --> 00:27:54.900
 teaching

00:27:54.900 --> 00:27:55.779
 has to

00:27:55.779 --> 00:27:56.099
 do

00:27:56.099 --> 00:27:56.960
 with

00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:57.299
 our

00:27:57.299 --> 00:27:58.059
 relationships

00:27:58.059 --> 00:27:58.519
 and our

00:27:58.519 --> 00:27:59.319
 responsibilities

00:27:59.319 --> 00:28:00.180
 toward

00:28:00.180 --> 00:28:01.500
 one another

00:28:01.500 --> 00:28:02.839
 we're not

00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:03.200
 to look

00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:03.559
 down

00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:04.379
 on one

00:28:04.379 --> 00:28:04.720
 another

00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:05.980
 the disciples

00:28:05.980 --> 00:28:06.500
 were looking

00:28:06.500 --> 00:28:07.019
 down on

00:28:07.019 --> 00:28:07.519
 each other

00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:09.220
 but we are

00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:09.680
 to look

00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:10.059
 out

00:28:10.059 --> 00:28:10.660
 for one

00:28:10.660 --> 00:28:10.960
 another

00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:12.920
 and to

00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:13.599
 care

00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:14.240
 for one

00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:14.579
 another

00:28:14.579 --> 00:28:15.839
 and to

00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:16.180
 guide

00:28:16.180 --> 00:28:16.440
 one

00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:16.779
 another

00:28:16.779 --> 00:28:18.160
 in

00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:19.140
 the path

00:28:19.140 --> 00:28:20.200
 of life

00:28:20.200 --> 00:28:22.539
 so

00:28:22.539 --> 00:28:22.819
 I've got

00:28:22.819 --> 00:28:23.039
 two

00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:23.559
 headings

00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:25.080
 two

00:28:25.080 --> 00:28:25.519
 divisions

00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:25.960
 verses

00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:26.500
 15

00:28:26.500 --> 00:28:26.660
 to

00:28:26.660 --> 00:28:27.100
 20

00:28:27.100 --> 00:28:28.600
 if we

00:28:28.600 --> 00:28:28.779
 are

00:28:28.779 --> 00:28:29.140
 sinned

00:28:29.140 --> 00:28:29.519
 against

00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:29.960
 we must

00:28:29.960 --> 00:28:30.400
 show

00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:30.860
 our

00:28:30.860 --> 00:28:31.120
 brother

00:28:31.120 --> 00:28:31.620
 or sister

00:28:31.620 --> 00:28:31.900
 their

00:28:31.900 --> 00:28:32.460
 fault

00:28:32.460 --> 00:28:33.840
 and

00:28:33.840 --> 00:28:34.039
 verse

00:28:34.039 --> 00:28:34.460
 21

00:28:34.460 --> 00:28:34.660
 to

00:28:34.660 --> 00:28:35.120
 35

00:28:35.120 --> 00:28:35.440
 we

00:28:35.440 --> 00:28:35.620
 must

00:28:35.620 --> 00:28:35.819
 then

00:28:35.819 --> 00:28:36.120
 show

00:28:36.120 --> 00:28:36.400
 them

00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:37.400
 forgiveness

00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:39.340
 and it

00:28:39.340 --> 00:28:39.740
 may be

00:28:39.740 --> 00:28:40.240
 you think

00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:40.660
 well I

00:28:40.660 --> 00:28:41.259
 find it

00:28:41.259 --> 00:28:41.680
 very easy

00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:42.019
 to show

00:28:42.019 --> 00:28:42.279
 people

00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:42.480
 their

00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:42.799
 faults

00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:43.080
 that's

00:28:43.080 --> 00:28:43.220
 not

00:28:43.220 --> 00:28:43.319
 going

00:28:43.319 --> 00:28:43.360
 to

00:28:43.360 --> 00:28:43.480
 be

00:28:43.480 --> 00:28:43.799
 hard

00:28:43.799 --> 00:28:45.180
 but

00:28:45.180 --> 00:28:45.319
 it's

00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:45.460
 not

00:28:45.460 --> 00:28:45.660
 so

00:28:45.660 --> 00:28:45.940
 easy

00:28:45.940 --> 00:28:46.180
 to

00:28:46.180 --> 00:28:46.400
 show

00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:46.660
 them

00:28:46.660 --> 00:28:47.580
 our

00:28:47.580 --> 00:28:48.100
 forgiveness

00:28:48.099 --> 00:28:49.799
 so we

00:28:49.799 --> 00:28:50.139
 want to

00:28:50.139 --> 00:28:50.419
 think

00:28:50.419 --> 00:28:51.279
 about

00:28:51.279 --> 00:28:51.559
 that

00:28:51.559 --> 00:28:51.859
 now

00:28:51.859 --> 00:28:52.139
 verse

00:28:52.139 --> 00:28:52.559
 15

00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:52.740
 to

00:28:52.740 --> 00:28:53.099
 20

00:28:53.099 --> 00:28:53.519
 showing

00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:53.859
 them

00:28:53.859 --> 00:28:54.579
 their

00:28:54.579 --> 00:28:55.119
 fault

00:28:55.119 --> 00:28:57.659
 when we

00:28:57.659 --> 00:28:58.079
 are

00:28:58.079 --> 00:28:58.759
 in

00:28:58.759 --> 00:28:59.359
 Christ

00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:01.619
 we

00:29:01.619 --> 00:29:01.819
 are

00:29:01.819 --> 00:29:02.139
 also

00:29:02.139 --> 00:29:02.419
 in

00:30:36.519 --> 00:30:36.900
 perhaps

00:30:36.900 --> 00:30:37.180
 to

 it

00:30:50.940 --> 00:30:51.200
 then

 being

 found

 again

00:30:52.860 --> 00:30:53.140
 and

00:30:53.140 --> 00:30:53.620
 very

00:30:53.620 --> 00:30:53.900
 often

00:30:53.900 --> 00:30:54.140
 we

00:30:54.140 --> 00:30:54.380
 can

00:30:54.380 --> 00:30:54.580
 go

00:30:54.580 --> 00:30:54.920
 astray

00:30:54.920 --> 00:30:55.040
 in

 our

00:30:56.019 --> 00:30:57.759
 something

00:30:57.759 --> 00:30:58.019
 as

00:30:58.019 --> 00:30:58.340
 simple

00:30:58.340 --> 00:30:58.700
 as

00:30:59.820 --> 00:31:00.160

00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:00.920
 something

00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:01.200
 perhaps

00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:01.420
 more

00:31:01.420 --> 00:31:01.820
 complex

00:31:01.820 --> 00:31:02.100
 is

 the

 of

 encourage

00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:11.700
 one

00:31:11.700 --> 00:31:12.040
 another

00:31:12.040 --> 00:31:13.440
 Paul

00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:13.780
 writing

00:31:13.780 --> 00:31:13.960
 to

00:31:13.960 --> 00:31:14.120
 the

00:31:14.120 --> 00:31:14.340
 church

00:31:14.340 --> 00:31:14.500
 in

00:31:14.500 --> 00:31:14.980
 Galatia

00:31:14.980 --> 00:31:16.000
 says

00:31:16.000 --> 00:31:16.320
 this

00:31:16.320 --> 00:31:16.500
 if

00:31:16.500 --> 00:31:16.880
 somebody

00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:17.180
 is

00:31:17.180 --> 00:31:17.480
 caught

00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:17.620
 in

00:31:17.620 --> 00:31:17.860
 a

00:31:17.860 --> 00:31:18.140
 sin

00:31:18.140 --> 00:31:18.540
 you

00:31:18.540 --> 00:31:18.740
 who

00:31:18.740 --> 00:31:18.940
 are

00:31:18.940 --> 00:31:19.660
 spiritual

00:31:19.660 --> 00:31:20.900
 ought

00:31:20.900 --> 00:31:21.060
 to

00:31:21.060 --> 00:31:21.440
 restore

00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:21.680
 them

00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:22.060
 in a

00:31:22.060 --> 00:31:22.400
 spirit

00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:22.680
 of

00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:23.560
 gentleness

00:31:23.559 --> 00:31:26.019
 so we're

00:31:26.019 --> 00:31:26.480
 part of

00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:26.960
 Christ's

00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:27.240
 body

00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:27.879
 responsible

00:31:27.879 --> 00:31:28.480
 for

00:31:28.480 --> 00:31:29.039
 and

00:31:29.039 --> 00:31:29.579
 accountable

00:31:29.579 --> 00:31:30.200
 to

00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:31.099
 one

00:31:31.099 --> 00:31:31.879
 another

00:31:31.879 --> 00:31:34.179
 and the

00:31:34.179 --> 00:31:34.480
 question

00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:35.000
 before us

00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:35.599
 verse 15

00:31:35.599 --> 00:31:36.000
 is what

00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:36.559
 happens if

00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:37.019
 somebody in

00:31:37.019 --> 00:31:37.559
 the church

00:31:37.559 --> 00:31:39.119
 is sinning

00:31:39.119 --> 00:31:39.579
 or

00:31:39.579 --> 00:31:40.379
 particularly

00:31:40.379 --> 00:31:41.240
 sinning

00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:42.079
 against

00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:43.399
 us

00:31:43.400 --> 00:31:45.920
 sinning

00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:45.940
 it

00:31:45.940 --> 00:31:46.220
 may

00:31:46.220 --> 00:31:47.200
 some

00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:47.800
 interpreters

00:31:47.800 --> 00:31:48.180
 take that

00:31:48.180 --> 00:31:48.440
 to mean

00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:48.720
 if we

00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:48.980
 see

00:31:48.980 --> 00:31:49.360
 a

00:31:49.360 --> 00:31:49.519
 brother

00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:49.700
 or

00:31:49.700 --> 00:31:49.880
 sister

00:31:49.880 --> 00:31:50.300
 falling

00:31:50.300 --> 00:31:50.580
 into

00:31:50.580 --> 00:31:51.019
 sin

00:31:51.019 --> 00:31:51.700
 or

00:31:51.700 --> 00:31:51.880
 if

00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:52.019
 it

00:31:52.019 --> 00:31:52.780
 specifically

00:31:52.780 --> 00:31:53.259
 refers

00:31:53.259 --> 00:31:53.500
 to

00:31:53.500 --> 00:31:53.860
 sinning

00:31:53.860 --> 00:31:54.220
 against

00:31:54.220 --> 00:31:54.640
 somebody

00:31:54.640 --> 00:31:55.220
 in

00:31:55.220 --> 00:31:55.360
 the

00:31:55.360 --> 00:31:55.700
 body

00:31:55.700 --> 00:31:55.960
 in

00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:56.120
 the

00:31:56.120 --> 00:31:56.540
 fellowship

00:31:56.540 --> 00:31:57.720
 what

00:31:57.720 --> 00:31:57.920
 are we

00:31:57.920 --> 00:31:58.240
 to do

00:31:58.240 --> 00:31:58.440
 though

00:31:58.440 --> 00:31:59.480
 if we

00:31:59.480 --> 00:31:59.680
 see

00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:00.080
 somebody

00:32:00.080 --> 00:32:00.500
 going

00:32:00.500 --> 00:32:01.300
 astray

00:32:01.300 --> 00:32:03.680
 well

00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:03.900
 what

00:32:03.900 --> 00:32:04.160
 we're

00:32:04.160 --> 00:32:04.680
 not

00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:04.880
 to

00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:05.120
 do

00:32:05.120 --> 00:32:06.519
 is

00:32:06.519 --> 00:32:06.759
 to

00:32:06.759 --> 00:32:07.200
 simply

00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:07.720
 ignore

00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:08.040
 it

00:32:08.040 --> 00:32:09.480
 turn a

00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:09.780
 blind

00:32:09.780 --> 00:32:10.140
 eye

00:32:10.140 --> 00:32:10.500
 sweep

00:32:10.500 --> 00:32:10.820
 it under

00:32:10.820 --> 00:32:11.040
 the

00:32:11.040 --> 00:32:11.400
 carpet

00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:12.380
 hope

00:32:12.380 --> 00:32:12.580
 it'll

00:32:12.580 --> 00:32:12.780
 go

00:32:12.780 --> 00:32:13.220
 away

00:32:13.220 --> 00:32:15.100
 be a

00:32:15.100 --> 00:32:15.340
 fairly

00:32:15.340 --> 00:32:16.080
 apathetic

00:32:16.080 --> 00:32:16.519
 shepherd

00:32:16.519 --> 00:32:17.580
 that

00:32:17.580 --> 00:32:17.840
 didn't

00:32:17.840 --> 00:32:18.060
 care

00:32:18.060 --> 00:32:18.280
 about

00:32:18.280 --> 00:32:18.460
 the

00:32:18.460 --> 00:32:18.700
 sheep

00:32:18.700 --> 00:32:19.000
 just

00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:19.380
 wandering

00:32:19.380 --> 00:32:19.680
 off

00:32:19.680 --> 00:32:20.040
 across

00:32:20.040 --> 00:32:20.280
 the

00:32:20.280 --> 00:32:20.640
 roads

00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:20.860
 and

00:32:20.860 --> 00:32:21.480
 into

00:32:21.480 --> 00:32:21.720
 the

00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:22.160
 fields

00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:24.680
 we're

00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:24.960
 not to

00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:25.240
 gossip

00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:25.600
 about

00:32:25.600 --> 00:32:25.759
 them

00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:25.940
 we're

00:32:25.940 --> 00:32:26.240
 not to

00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:26.440
 hold

00:32:26.440 --> 00:32:26.600
 a

00:32:26.600 --> 00:32:26.960
 grudge

00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:27.800
 against

00:32:27.800 --> 00:32:28.140
 them

00:32:28.140 --> 00:32:29.620
 there

00:32:29.620 --> 00:32:29.820
 are

00:32:29.820 --> 00:32:30.380
 issues

00:32:30.380 --> 00:32:31.720
 interpersonal

00:32:31.720 --> 00:32:32.380
 issues

00:32:32.380 --> 00:32:32.940
 that need

00:32:32.940 --> 00:32:33.800
 to be

00:32:33.800 --> 00:32:34.540
 addressed

00:32:34.540 --> 00:32:36.740
 he says

00:32:36.740 --> 00:32:37.200
 Christians

00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:37.600
 in the

00:32:37.600 --> 00:32:37.920
 church

00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:38.180
 we

00:32:38.180 --> 00:32:39.519
 come

00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:39.960
 together

00:32:39.960 --> 00:32:40.440
 for

00:32:40.440 --> 00:32:40.960
 comfort

00:32:40.960 --> 00:32:42.380
 to be

00:32:42.380 --> 00:32:43.039
 strengthened

00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:43.660
 when we're

00:32:43.660 --> 00:32:44.200
 suffering

00:32:44.200 --> 00:32:44.860
 and facing

00:32:44.860 --> 00:32:45.380
 trials

00:32:45.380 --> 00:32:45.779
 of many

00:32:45.779 --> 00:32:46.380
 kinds

00:32:46.380 --> 00:32:48.299
 but we

00:32:48.299 --> 00:32:48.860
 must also

00:32:48.860 --> 00:32:49.460
 expect a

00:32:49.460 --> 00:32:49.920
 degree of

00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:50.640
 challenge

00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:51.960
 if we're

00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:52.340
 sinning

00:32:52.340 --> 00:32:52.700
 if we're

00:32:52.700 --> 00:32:53.299
 straying

00:32:53.299 --> 00:32:53.779
 that we'll

00:32:53.779 --> 00:32:54.240
 be called

00:32:54.240 --> 00:32:54.759
 back

00:32:54.759 --> 00:32:56.120
 to Christ

00:32:56.120 --> 00:32:57.160
 the chief

00:32:57.160 --> 00:32:57.940
 shepherd

00:32:57.940 --> 00:33:00.480
 and this

00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:00.720
 isn't

00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:01.460
 something we

00:33:01.460 --> 00:33:01.880
 ought to

00:33:01.880 --> 00:33:02.240
 resent

00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:03.860
 in the

00:33:03.860 --> 00:33:04.160
 workplace

00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:04.559
 it was

00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:04.779
 never

00:33:04.779 --> 00:33:05.380
 particularly

00:33:05.380 --> 00:33:06.039
 comfortable

00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:06.380
 getting

00:33:06.380 --> 00:33:06.779
 feedback

00:33:06.779 --> 00:33:07.600
 sometimes

00:33:07.600 --> 00:33:08.420
 it stung

00:33:08.420 --> 00:33:09.880
 but it

00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:10.299
 was helpful

00:33:10.299 --> 00:33:11.500
 helped

00:33:11.500 --> 00:33:12.059
 to grow

00:33:12.059 --> 00:33:12.480
 helped

00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:12.859
 us to

00:33:12.859 --> 00:33:13.759
 address

00:33:13.759 --> 00:33:14.159
 any

00:33:14.159 --> 00:33:14.680
 problems

00:33:14.680 --> 00:33:15.000
 any

00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:15.500
 issues

00:33:15.500 --> 00:33:17.859
 so too

00:33:17.859 --> 00:33:18.460
 in the

00:33:18.460 --> 00:33:18.839
 Christian

00:33:18.839 --> 00:33:19.519
 life

 proverbs

00:33:21.799 --> 00:33:22.879
 chapter 9

00:33:22.879 --> 00:33:23.379
 verse 8

00:33:23.379 --> 00:33:24.399
 reprove a

00:33:24.399 --> 00:33:25.279
 wise man

00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:26.460
 and he

00:33:26.460 --> 00:33:26.759
 will

00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:28.379
 love you

00:33:28.379 --> 00:33:29.799
 elsewhere

00:33:29.799 --> 00:33:30.259
 in that

00:33:30.259 --> 00:33:30.700
 book we

00:33:30.700 --> 00:33:31.139
 read these

00:33:31.139 --> 00:33:31.460
 words

00:33:31.460 --> 00:33:32.019
 faithful

00:33:32.019 --> 00:33:32.759
 are the

00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:33.279
 wounds

00:33:33.279 --> 00:33:33.839
 of a

00:33:33.839 --> 00:33:34.379
 friend

00:33:34.379 --> 00:33:36.480
 sometimes

00:33:36.480 --> 00:33:37.000
 we need

00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:37.619
 that gentle

00:33:37.619 --> 00:33:38.139
 word

00:33:38.140 --> 00:33:38.740
 of

00:33:38.740 --> 00:33:39.300
 encouragement

00:33:39.300 --> 00:33:39.640
 that

00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:40.300
 word

00:33:40.300 --> 00:33:40.500
 of

00:33:40.500 --> 00:33:41.240
 admonition

00:33:41.240 --> 00:33:44.060
 and in

00:33:44.060 --> 00:33:44.620
 verse 15

00:33:44.620 --> 00:33:45.160
 we read

00:33:45.160 --> 00:33:45.420
 of the

00:33:45.420 --> 00:33:45.960
 situation

00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:46.280
 where

00:33:46.280 --> 00:33:47.140
 a brother

00:33:47.140 --> 00:33:47.520
 sins

00:33:47.520 --> 00:33:47.900
 against

00:33:47.900 --> 00:33:48.220
 another

00:33:48.220 --> 00:33:48.540
 brother

00:33:48.540 --> 00:33:49.060
 or sister

00:33:49.060 --> 00:33:51.000
 and the

00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:51.200
 Lord

00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:52.060
 teaches us

00:33:52.060 --> 00:33:52.820
 a sequence

00:33:52.820 --> 00:33:53.240
 in which

00:33:53.240 --> 00:33:54.080
 to address

00:33:54.080 --> 00:33:55.000
 these

00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:55.620
 difficulties

00:33:55.620 --> 00:33:58.860
 verse 15

00:33:58.860 --> 00:34:00.240
 if they

00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:00.700
 sin against

00:34:00.700 --> 00:34:01.120
 you go

00:34:01.120 --> 00:34:01.600
 and tell

00:34:01.600 --> 00:34:01.800
 them

00:34:01.800 --> 00:34:02.759
 their fault

00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:03.840
 alone

00:34:03.839 --> 00:34:06.199
 so we

00:34:06.199 --> 00:34:06.679
 begin with

00:34:06.679 --> 00:34:07.019
 something

00:34:07.019 --> 00:34:07.459
 which is

00:34:07.459 --> 00:34:07.919
 private

00:34:07.919 --> 00:34:09.980
 and informal

00:34:09.980 --> 00:34:11.319
 and this

00:34:11.319 --> 00:34:11.960
 then progresses

00:34:11.960 --> 00:34:12.460
 to something

00:34:12.460 --> 00:34:12.960
 more public

00:34:12.960 --> 00:34:13.980
 more formal

00:34:13.980 --> 00:34:15.000
 but initially

00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:16.480
 the Lord

00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:16.900
 says if

00:34:16.900 --> 00:34:17.239
 there's an

00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:17.619
 issue

00:34:17.619 --> 00:34:19.219
 don't let

00:34:19.219 --> 00:34:19.639
 the bitter

00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:20.380
 root grow

00:34:20.380 --> 00:34:20.900
 up in

00:34:20.900 --> 00:34:21.559
 your heart

00:34:21.559 --> 00:34:23.779
 go and

00:34:23.779 --> 00:34:24.259
 speak to

00:34:24.259 --> 00:34:24.639
 the one

00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:25.360
 who has

00:34:25.360 --> 00:34:26.239
 sinned

00:34:26.239 --> 00:34:26.619
 against

00:34:26.619 --> 00:34:27.000
 you

00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:29.759
 invite them

00:34:29.759 --> 00:34:30.159
 round

00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:31.679
 take them

00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:31.960
 for a

00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:32.279
 coffee

00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:34.320
 I had

00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:34.720
 one friend

00:34:34.720 --> 00:34:34.920
 that was

00:34:34.920 --> 00:34:35.280
 a student

00:34:35.280 --> 00:34:35.600
 worker

00:34:35.600 --> 00:34:37.320
 working with

00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:37.780
 Christian

00:34:37.780 --> 00:34:38.280
 students

00:34:38.280 --> 00:34:40.360
 and when

00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:40.600
 they were

00:34:40.600 --> 00:34:41.200
 washing the

00:34:41.200 --> 00:34:41.600
 dishes

00:34:41.600 --> 00:34:42.880
 after meals

00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:43.980
 he thought

00:34:43.980 --> 00:34:44.340
 that was

00:34:44.340 --> 00:34:44.920
 always the

00:34:44.920 --> 00:34:45.480
 best time

00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:45.840
 to ask

00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:46.200
 the really

00:34:46.200 --> 00:34:46.680
 difficult

00:34:46.680 --> 00:34:47.420
 questions

00:34:47.420 --> 00:34:48.360
 because you

00:34:48.360 --> 00:34:49.040
 were concentrating

00:34:49.040 --> 00:34:49.560
 on something

00:34:49.560 --> 00:34:49.860
 you weren't

00:34:49.860 --> 00:34:50.360
 looking each

00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:50.740
 other in the

00:34:50.740 --> 00:34:51.080
 face

00:34:51.080 --> 00:34:51.940
 and that

00:34:51.940 --> 00:34:52.220
 was when

00:34:52.220 --> 00:34:52.680
 he really

00:34:52.680 --> 00:34:53.120
 asked you

00:34:53.120 --> 00:34:53.660
 the challenging

00:34:53.660 --> 00:34:54.340
 questions

00:34:54.340 --> 00:34:55.280
 about your

00:34:55.280 --> 00:34:55.620
 Christian

00:34:55.620 --> 00:34:56.160
 life and

00:34:56.160 --> 00:34:56.540
 walk

00:34:56.540 --> 00:35:00.700
 verse 16

00:35:00.700 --> 00:35:01.120
 but if they

00:35:01.120 --> 00:35:01.660
 won't listen

00:35:01.659 --> 00:35:03.239
 take one

00:35:03.239 --> 00:35:03.500
 or two

00:35:03.500 --> 00:35:03.739
 others

00:35:03.739 --> 00:35:04.219
 with you

00:35:04.219 --> 00:35:05.279
 that every

00:35:05.279 --> 00:35:05.839
 charge may

00:35:05.839 --> 00:35:06.420
 be established

00:35:06.420 --> 00:35:06.940
 by the

00:35:06.940 --> 00:35:07.359
 evidence

00:35:07.359 --> 00:35:08.719
 of two

00:35:08.719 --> 00:35:09.539
 or three

00:35:09.539 --> 00:35:10.019
 witnesses

00:35:10.019 --> 00:35:10.779
 to emphasize

00:35:10.779 --> 00:35:11.539
 the gravity

00:35:11.539 --> 00:35:11.940
 of the

00:35:11.940 --> 00:35:12.599
 situation

00:35:12.599 --> 00:35:14.159
 take two

00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:14.619
 or three

00:35:14.619 --> 00:35:14.960
 others

00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:15.539
 as in the

00:35:15.539 --> 00:35:16.079
 Old Testament

00:35:16.079 --> 00:35:16.399
 there were

00:35:16.399 --> 00:35:16.859
 two or

00:35:16.859 --> 00:35:17.139
 three

00:35:17.139 --> 00:35:17.980
 witnesses

00:35:17.980 --> 00:35:21.420
 and if they

00:35:21.420 --> 00:35:21.980
 refuse to

00:35:21.980 --> 00:35:22.440
 listen to

00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:22.679
 that

00:35:22.679 --> 00:35:23.079
 tell it

00:35:23.079 --> 00:35:23.379
 to the

00:35:23.379 --> 00:35:23.779
 church

00:35:23.779 --> 00:35:25.099
 and if

00:35:25.099 --> 00:35:25.500
 they refuse

00:35:25.500 --> 00:35:25.899
 to listen

00:35:25.899 --> 00:35:26.259
 to the

00:35:26.259 --> 00:35:26.619
 church

00:35:26.619 --> 00:35:27.759
 effectively

00:35:27.759 --> 00:35:28.139
 they are

00:35:28.139 --> 00:35:28.440
 to be

00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:29.019
 put out

00:35:29.019 --> 00:35:29.299
 of the

00:35:29.299 --> 00:35:29.559
 church

00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:29.960
 treated

00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:31.460
 as a

00:35:31.460 --> 00:35:31.780
 Jewish

00:35:31.780 --> 00:35:32.480
 person

00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:32.800
 of that

00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:32.940
 day

00:35:32.940 --> 00:35:33.260
 might have

00:35:33.260 --> 00:35:33.460
 treated

00:35:33.460 --> 00:35:33.699
 a

00:35:33.699 --> 00:35:34.199
 Gentile

00:35:34.199 --> 00:35:35.059
 or a

00:35:35.059 --> 00:35:35.360
 tax

00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:35.920
 collector

00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:39.179
 there is

00:35:39.179 --> 00:35:39.980
 a weight

00:35:39.980 --> 00:35:40.639
 to these

00:35:40.639 --> 00:35:41.079
 words

00:35:41.079 --> 00:35:42.320
 somebody

00:35:42.320 --> 00:35:43.119
 refuses to

00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:43.420
 listen

00:35:43.420 --> 00:35:44.260
 to a

00:35:44.260 --> 00:35:44.860
 friend

00:35:44.860 --> 00:35:46.039
 to a

00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:46.639
 company

00:35:46.639 --> 00:35:46.960
 of their

00:35:46.960 --> 00:35:47.300
 friends

00:35:47.300 --> 00:35:47.679
 to the

00:35:47.679 --> 00:35:48.039
 leadership

00:35:48.039 --> 00:35:48.440
 of the

00:35:48.440 --> 00:35:48.720
 local

00:35:48.720 --> 00:35:49.220
 church

00:35:49.220 --> 00:35:51.159
 there is

00:35:51.159 --> 00:35:51.440
 a weight

00:35:51.440 --> 00:35:51.840
 behind

00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:52.179
 them

00:35:52.179 --> 00:35:53.659
 and that

00:35:53.659 --> 00:35:54.220
 admonition

00:35:54.220 --> 00:35:54.800
 comes with

00:35:54.800 --> 00:35:55.400
 the authority

00:35:55.400 --> 00:35:56.460
 of the

00:35:56.460 --> 00:35:56.700
 Lord

00:35:56.700 --> 00:35:56.980
 Jesus

00:35:56.980 --> 00:35:57.760
 Christ

00:35:57.760 --> 00:35:59.780
 Paul

00:35:59.780 --> 00:36:00.280
 writing to

00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:00.660
 the church

00:36:00.660 --> 00:36:01.099
 in Corinth

00:36:01.099 --> 00:36:01.760
 1 Corinthians

00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:02.860
 5 says

00:36:02.860 --> 00:36:03.119
 that when

00:36:03.119 --> 00:36:03.280
 you are

00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:03.700
 assembled

00:36:03.700 --> 00:36:04.039
 in the

00:36:04.039 --> 00:36:04.300
 name of

00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:05.260
 Christ

00:36:05.260 --> 00:36:05.559
 and my

00:36:05.559 --> 00:36:05.840
 spirit

00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:06.059
 is

00:36:06.059 --> 00:36:06.420
 present

00:36:06.420 --> 00:36:06.860
 with

00:36:06.860 --> 00:36:07.059
 the

00:36:07.059 --> 00:36:07.320
 power

00:36:07.320 --> 00:36:07.480
 of

00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:07.599
 the

 Jesus

00:36:08.079 --> 00:36:08.619
 Christ

00:36:08.619 --> 00:36:10.220
 you are

00:36:10.220 --> 00:36:10.400
 to

00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:10.700
 deliver

00:36:10.700 --> 00:36:10.920
 this

00:36:10.920 --> 00:36:11.180
 man

00:36:11.180 --> 00:36:11.440
 over

00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:11.780
 to

00:36:11.780 --> 00:36:12.220
 Satan

00:36:12.220 --> 00:36:13.300
 for

00:36:13.300 --> 00:36:13.420
 the

00:36:13.420 --> 00:36:13.800
 destruction

00:36:13.800 --> 00:36:13.960
 of

00:36:13.960 --> 00:36:14.079
 his

00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:14.380
 flesh

00:36:14.380 --> 00:36:14.539
 so

00:36:14.539 --> 00:36:14.639
 that

00:36:14.639 --> 00:36:14.860
 his

00:36:14.860 --> 00:36:15.200
 soul

00:36:15.200 --> 00:36:15.380
 may

00:36:15.380 --> 00:36:15.539
 be

00:36:15.539 --> 00:36:15.920
 saved

00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:16.599
 in

00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:16.720
 the

00:36:16.720 --> 00:36:16.880
 day

00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:17.000
 of

00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:17.139
 the

00:36:17.139 --> 00:36:17.519
 Lord

 Jesus

00:36:22.300 --> 00:36:22.619
 says

00:36:22.619 --> 00:36:22.780
 when

00:36:22.780 --> 00:36:23.160
 two or

00:36:23.160 --> 00:36:23.300
 three

00:36:23.300 --> 00:36:23.440
 are

 thought

00:39:52.939 --> 00:39:53.199
 well

00:39:53.199 --> 00:39:54.279
 maybe

00:40:01.919 --> 00:40:02.139

00:40:02.139 --> 00:40:02.899
 he

00:40:02.899 --> 00:40:03.039
 was

00:40:03.039 --> 00:40:03.219
 very

00:40:07.900 --> 00:40:08.039
 I

00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:08.199
 should

00:43:10.159 --> 00:43:12.219
 takes

00:43:12.219 --> 00:43:12.699
 humility

00:43:12.699 --> 00:43:14.219
 to listen

00:43:14.219 --> 00:43:14.719
 wisdom

00:43:14.719 --> 00:43:15.399
 to discern

00:43:15.399 --> 00:43:15.819
 if there's

00:43:15.819 --> 00:43:16.259
 anything

00:43:16.259 --> 00:43:17.379
 there that

00:43:17.379 --> 00:43:17.719
 needs to

00:43:17.719 --> 00:43:18.139
 be acted

00:43:18.139 --> 00:43:18.639
 upon

00:43:18.639 --> 00:43:20.599
 part of

00:43:20.599 --> 00:43:21.000
 being a

00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:21.359
 Christian

00:43:21.359 --> 00:43:22.139
 not only

00:43:22.139 --> 00:43:22.379
 being

00:43:22.379 --> 00:43:23.179
 comforted

00:43:23.179 --> 00:43:24.339
 but being

00:43:24.339 --> 00:43:25.019
 challenged

00:43:25.019 --> 00:43:25.960
 by the

00:43:25.960 --> 00:43:26.239
 Lord

00:43:26.239 --> 00:43:26.739
 by his

00:43:26.739 --> 00:43:27.199
 word

00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:28.699
 and

00:43:28.699 --> 00:43:29.039
 sometimes

00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:29.500
 by a

00:43:29.500 --> 00:43:29.699
 loving

00:43:29.699 --> 00:43:30.019
 brother

00:43:30.019 --> 00:43:30.739
 or sister

00:43:30.739 --> 00:43:33.780
 and that's

00:43:33.780 --> 00:43:34.280
 really what

00:43:34.280 --> 00:43:34.559
 church

00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:35.039
 membership

00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:36.119
 is about

00:43:36.119 --> 00:43:36.940
 in part

00:43:36.940 --> 00:43:38.559
 as we

00:43:38.559 --> 00:43:38.880
 approach

00:43:38.880 --> 00:43:39.579
 this season

00:43:39.579 --> 00:43:40.780
 we think

00:43:40.780 --> 00:43:41.159
 about what

00:43:41.159 --> 00:43:41.480
 it means

00:43:41.480 --> 00:43:41.860
 to be a

00:43:41.860 --> 00:43:42.380
 communicant

00:43:42.380 --> 00:43:42.759
 member

00:43:42.759 --> 00:43:43.639
 of a

00:43:43.639 --> 00:43:44.199
 congregation

00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:45.759
 and at

00:43:45.759 --> 00:43:46.239
 one level

00:43:46.239 --> 00:43:47.199
 becoming a

00:43:47.199 --> 00:43:47.559
 member

00:43:47.559 --> 00:43:48.239
 is to

00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:48.759
 say to

00:43:48.759 --> 00:43:48.920
 the

00:43:48.920 --> 00:43:49.199
 leadership

00:43:49.199 --> 00:43:49.619
 of that

00:43:49.619 --> 00:43:49.900
 church

00:43:49.900 --> 00:43:50.340
 that I'm

00:43:50.340 --> 00:43:50.759
 willing to

00:43:50.759 --> 00:43:51.139
 be held

00:43:51.139 --> 00:43:51.679
 accountable

00:43:51.679 --> 00:43:53.059
 for my

00:43:53.059 --> 00:43:53.399
 Christian

00:43:53.399 --> 00:43:53.799
 walk

00:43:53.799 --> 00:43:54.119
 and my

00:43:54.119 --> 00:43:54.480
 Christian

00:43:54.480 --> 00:43:54.919
 witness

00:43:54.919 --> 00:43:57.339
 and I

00:43:57.339 --> 00:43:58.559
 look forward

00:43:58.559 --> 00:43:59.039
 to being

00:43:59.039 --> 00:44:00.000
 prayed for

00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:00.460
 but I'm

00:44:00.460 --> 00:44:01.199
 open to

00:44:01.199 --> 00:44:01.940
 being asked

00:44:01.940 --> 00:44:02.819
 questions

00:44:02.819 --> 00:44:03.879
 about my

00:44:03.879 --> 00:44:04.219
 Christian

00:44:04.219 --> 00:44:04.539
 life

00:44:04.539 --> 00:44:04.799
 I'm

00:44:04.799 --> 00:44:05.500
 open to

00:44:05.500 --> 00:44:05.859
 somebody

00:44:05.859 --> 00:44:06.379
 having a

00:44:06.379 --> 00:44:06.619
 word

00:44:06.619 --> 00:44:07.639
 a private

00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:08.440
 informal

00:44:08.440 --> 00:44:08.899
 word

00:44:08.899 --> 00:44:10.399
 if something

00:44:10.399 --> 00:44:10.819
 comes to

00:44:10.819 --> 00:44:11.419
 their attention

00:44:11.419 --> 00:44:11.759
 that is

00:44:11.759 --> 00:44:12.500
 inconsistent

00:44:12.500 --> 00:44:13.819
 in my

00:44:13.819 --> 00:44:14.259
 conduct

00:44:14.259 --> 00:44:14.599
 or my

00:44:14.599 --> 00:44:15.239
 conversation

00:44:15.239 --> 00:44:18.079
 indeed

00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:18.799
 not joining

00:44:18.799 --> 00:44:19.379
 a church

00:44:19.379 --> 00:44:21.259
 is to

00:44:21.259 --> 00:44:21.619
 say at

00:44:21.619 --> 00:44:22.019
 one level

00:44:22.019 --> 00:44:22.359
 that I

00:44:22.359 --> 00:44:22.699
 don't want

00:44:22.699 --> 00:44:23.159
 anyone to

00:44:23.159 --> 00:44:23.479
 be held

00:44:23.479 --> 00:44:24.639
 accountable

00:44:24.639 --> 00:44:25.179
 to anyone

00:44:25.179 --> 00:44:26.199
 I don't

00:44:26.199 --> 00:44:26.579
 want anyone

00:44:26.579 --> 00:44:26.919
 to be

00:44:26.919 --> 00:44:27.500
 taking such

00:44:27.500 --> 00:44:28.059
 an interest

00:44:28.059 --> 00:44:29.000
 in my

00:44:29.000 --> 00:44:29.479
 life

00:44:29.479 --> 00:44:32.039
 but the

00:44:32.039 --> 00:44:32.619
 Lord says

00:44:32.619 --> 00:44:33.159
 we have

00:44:33.159 --> 00:44:34.179
 responsibilities

00:44:34.179 --> 00:44:35.139
 toward

00:44:35.139 --> 00:44:36.419
 one another

00:44:36.419 --> 00:44:37.619
 not to

00:44:37.619 --> 00:44:38.119
 look down

00:44:38.119 --> 00:44:38.479
 on one

00:44:38.479 --> 00:44:38.739
 another

00:44:38.739 --> 00:44:39.059
 as the

00:44:39.059 --> 00:44:39.419
 disciples

00:44:39.419 --> 00:44:39.719
 did

00:44:39.719 --> 00:44:40.299
 but to

00:44:40.299 --> 00:44:40.919
 look out

00:44:40.919 --> 00:44:41.559
 for one

00:44:41.559 --> 00:44:41.879
 another

00:44:41.879 --> 00:44:43.039
 and to

00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:43.539
 care for

00:44:43.539 --> 00:44:44.019
 one another

00:44:44.019 --> 00:44:45.219
 and where

00:44:45.219 --> 00:44:45.639
 necessary

00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:46.380
 to restore

00:44:46.380 --> 00:44:47.039
 one another

00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:50.920
 so firstly

00:44:50.920 --> 00:44:51.519
 he says

00:44:51.519 --> 00:44:52.719
 if somebody

00:44:52.719 --> 00:44:53.539
 sins against

00:44:53.539 --> 00:44:54.059
 you show

00:44:54.059 --> 00:44:55.179
 them their

00:44:55.179 --> 00:44:55.659
 fault

00:44:55.659 --> 00:44:57.900
 but then in

00:44:57.900 --> 00:44:58.440
 this parable

00:44:58.440 --> 00:44:59.179
 verse 21

00:44:59.179 --> 00:44:59.659
 he says

00:44:59.659 --> 00:45:00.000
 if they

00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:00.880
 sin against

00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:01.579
 you of

00:45:01.579 --> 00:45:01.980
 course you

00:45:01.980 --> 00:45:02.440
 must show

00:45:02.440 --> 00:45:03.679
 them your

00:45:03.679 --> 00:45:04.619
 forgiveness

00:45:04.619 --> 00:45:08.059
 and Christian

00:45:08.059 --> 00:45:09.019
 forgiveness

00:45:09.019 --> 00:45:10.360
 when exercised

00:45:10.360 --> 00:45:11.380
 is extremely

00:45:11.380 --> 00:45:12.579
 powerful

00:45:12.579 --> 00:45:15.319
 I was

00:45:15.319 --> 00:45:16.159
 delighted to

00:45:16.159 --> 00:45:16.519
 find a

00:45:16.519 --> 00:45:16.819
 Christian

00:45:16.819 --> 00:45:17.360
 bookshop

00:45:17.360 --> 00:45:18.039
 here

00:45:18.039 --> 00:45:18.599
 just

00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:19.059
 yesterday

00:45:19.059 --> 00:45:19.960
 and we

00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:20.420
 had a

00:45:20.420 --> 00:45:21.460
 great time

00:45:21.460 --> 00:45:22.000
 browsing the

00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:22.579
 books and

00:45:22.579 --> 00:45:23.779
 I saw some

00:45:23.779 --> 00:45:24.840
 books about

00:45:24.840 --> 00:45:26.480
 the work of

00:45:26.480 --> 00:45:26.980
 God in

00:45:26.980 --> 00:45:28.679
 China in

00:45:28.679 --> 00:45:29.079
 the past

00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:29.739
 century the

00:45:29.739 --> 00:45:30.179
 remarkable

00:45:30.179 --> 00:45:30.739
 growth

00:45:30.739 --> 00:45:31.599
 miraculous

00:45:31.599 --> 00:45:33.319
 growth of

00:45:33.319 --> 00:45:33.960
 the Christian

00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:34.699
 church in

00:45:34.699 --> 00:45:35.119
 China

00:45:35.119 --> 00:45:36.840
 and it

00:45:36.840 --> 00:45:37.199
 reminded me

00:45:37.199 --> 00:45:37.759
 of the story

00:45:37.759 --> 00:45:38.400
 of a Christian

00:45:38.400 --> 00:45:39.179
 leader who

00:45:39.179 --> 00:45:40.000
 had published

00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:40.420
 a book

00:45:40.420 --> 00:45:41.800
 and was

00:45:41.800 --> 00:45:42.200
 getting a

00:45:42.200 --> 00:45:42.680
 certain amount

00:45:42.680 --> 00:45:43.260
 of publicity

00:45:43.260 --> 00:45:44.119
 in the

00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:44.599
 West

00:45:44.599 --> 00:45:45.460
 book

00:45:45.460 --> 00:45:46.519
 sought to

00:45:46.519 --> 00:45:47.480
 glorify God

00:45:47.480 --> 00:45:48.340
 tell of some

00:45:48.340 --> 00:45:48.599
 of his

00:45:48.599 --> 00:45:49.500
 marvelous works

00:45:49.500 --> 00:45:51.460
 and yet there

00:45:51.460 --> 00:45:52.119
 were those who

00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:52.860
 didn't believe

00:45:52.860 --> 00:45:53.360
 what was written

00:45:53.360 --> 00:45:53.900
 in this book

00:45:53.900 --> 00:45:55.300
 there was one

00:45:55.300 --> 00:45:55.980
 man in

00:45:55.980 --> 00:45:56.639
 particular

00:45:56.639 --> 00:45:57.700
 that began

00:45:57.700 --> 00:45:58.639
 a campaign

00:45:58.639 --> 00:45:59.800
 against the

00:45:59.800 --> 00:46:00.220
 author

00:46:00.220 --> 00:46:01.539
 and he began

00:46:01.539 --> 00:46:02.119
 a website

00:46:02.119 --> 00:46:02.980
 and he

00:46:02.980 --> 00:46:04.139
 somehow influenced

00:46:04.139 --> 00:46:04.720
 other leaders

00:46:04.720 --> 00:46:05.340
 in the Chinese

00:46:05.340 --> 00:46:05.980
 church to

00:46:05.980 --> 00:46:07.079
 disown this

00:46:07.079 --> 00:46:07.440
 man

00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:08.680
 to claim

00:46:08.680 --> 00:46:09.039
 that he was

00:46:09.039 --> 00:46:09.559
 a fraud

00:46:09.559 --> 00:46:11.019
 to drag

00:46:11.019 --> 00:46:11.519
 his name

00:46:11.519 --> 00:46:11.920
 through the

00:46:11.920 --> 00:46:12.159
 dirt

00:46:12.159 --> 00:46:14.739
 and after

00:46:14.739 --> 00:46:15.079
 this had

00:46:15.079 --> 00:46:15.599
 rumbled on

00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:16.099
 for a number

00:46:16.099 --> 00:46:16.480
 of months

00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:17.059
 somebody went

00:46:17.059 --> 00:46:17.360
 to this

00:46:17.360 --> 00:46:18.019
 Chinese leader

00:46:18.019 --> 00:46:19.320
 and they

00:46:19.320 --> 00:46:19.759
 said what

00:46:19.759 --> 00:46:20.219
 is your

00:46:20.219 --> 00:46:20.559
 comment

00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:21.039
 what do

00:46:21.039 --> 00:46:21.599
 you say

00:46:21.599 --> 00:46:22.480
 to this

00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:22.940
 individual

00:46:22.940 --> 00:46:23.279
 and to

00:46:23.279 --> 00:46:23.739
 these other

00:46:23.739 --> 00:46:24.380
 leaders

00:46:24.380 --> 00:46:25.360
 he's turned

00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:26.059
 against you

00:46:26.059 --> 00:46:28.219
 and this

00:46:28.219 --> 00:46:28.679
 brother very

00:46:28.679 --> 00:46:29.179
 graciously

00:46:29.179 --> 00:46:30.019
 responded by

00:46:30.019 --> 00:46:30.940
 saying I

00:46:30.940 --> 00:46:31.619
 have absolutely

00:46:31.619 --> 00:46:33.099
 nothing against

00:46:33.099 --> 00:46:33.659
 these brothers

00:46:33.659 --> 00:46:34.300
 of mine

00:46:34.300 --> 00:46:35.779
 and I look

00:46:35.779 --> 00:46:36.500
 forward to

00:46:36.500 --> 00:46:37.179
 the day when

00:46:37.179 --> 00:46:38.179
 we will embrace

00:46:38.179 --> 00:46:38.779
 one another

00:46:38.779 --> 00:46:39.679
 before the

00:46:39.679 --> 00:46:40.779
 throne of

00:46:40.779 --> 00:46:41.339
 the Lamb

00:46:41.339 --> 00:46:43.559
 he turned

00:46:43.559 --> 00:46:43.879
 the other

00:46:43.879 --> 00:46:44.239
 cheek

00:46:44.239 --> 00:46:46.519
 he forgave

00:46:46.519 --> 00:46:47.859
 his critics

00:46:47.859 --> 00:46:51.659
 and Peter

00:46:51.659 --> 00:46:52.419
 wants to

00:46:52.419 --> 00:46:52.940
 understand more

00:46:52.940 --> 00:46:53.419
 about Christian

00:46:53.419 --> 00:46:53.759
 forgiveness

00:46:53.759 --> 00:46:54.440
 verse 21

00:46:54.440 --> 00:46:56.000
 how many

00:46:56.000 --> 00:46:56.980
 times must I

00:46:56.980 --> 00:46:57.519
 forgive him

00:46:57.519 --> 00:46:58.759
 seven times

00:46:58.759 --> 00:47:01.219
 now the

00:47:01.219 --> 00:47:02.239
 rabbis of the

00:47:02.239 --> 00:47:03.199
 day taught

00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:03.940
 that if you

00:47:03.940 --> 00:47:04.500
 were sinned

00:47:04.500 --> 00:47:05.059
 against

00:47:05.059 --> 00:47:06.400
 you had to

00:47:06.400 --> 00:47:07.579
 forgive somebody

00:47:07.579 --> 00:47:08.739
 up to three

00:47:08.739 --> 00:47:09.340
 times

00:47:09.340 --> 00:47:11.500
 so Peter is

00:47:11.500 --> 00:47:12.000
 really looking

00:47:12.000 --> 00:47:12.539
 for top

00:47:12.539 --> 00:47:13.179
 marks here

00:47:13.179 --> 00:47:14.019
 seven times

00:47:14.019 --> 00:47:14.519
 Lord that's

00:47:14.519 --> 00:47:14.880
 more than

00:47:14.880 --> 00:47:15.900
 twice what

00:47:15.900 --> 00:47:16.420
 the rabbis

00:47:16.420 --> 00:47:16.920
 are teaching

00:47:16.920 --> 00:47:19.460
 but the

00:47:19.460 --> 00:47:19.940
 Lord Jesus

00:47:19.940 --> 00:47:20.719
 raises the

00:47:20.719 --> 00:47:21.380
 bar even

00:47:21.380 --> 00:47:22.039
 higher as

00:47:22.039 --> 00:47:22.860
 high as he

00:47:22.860 --> 00:47:23.259
 can raise

00:47:23.259 --> 00:47:23.539
 it not

00:47:23.539 --> 00:47:24.420
 seven times

00:47:24.420 --> 00:47:25.980
 but seventy

00:47:25.980 --> 00:47:27.799
 times seven

00:47:27.799 --> 00:47:30.019
 seven the

00:47:30.019 --> 00:47:30.400
 number of

00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:30.880
 completeness

00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:31.639
 seventy times

00:47:31.639 --> 00:47:32.440
 seven seventy

00:47:32.440 --> 00:47:34.460
 seven fullness

00:47:34.460 --> 00:47:35.360
 completeness

00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:36.220
 as many

00:47:36.220 --> 00:47:37.079
 times as

00:47:37.079 --> 00:47:37.519
 you are

00:47:37.519 --> 00:47:38.380
 being sinned

00:47:38.380 --> 00:47:38.840
 against

00:47:38.840 --> 00:47:39.820
 total

00:47:39.820 --> 00:47:40.880
 true

00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:41.760
 forgiveness

00:47:41.760 --> 00:47:45.400
 one writer

00:47:45.400 --> 00:47:46.099
 says there's

00:47:46.099 --> 00:47:46.599
 no point

00:47:46.599 --> 00:47:47.179
 burying a

00:47:47.179 --> 00:47:47.720
 hatchet

00:47:47.720 --> 00:47:48.639
 if you're

00:47:48.639 --> 00:47:48.960
 going to

00:47:48.960 --> 00:47:49.420
 put up a

00:47:49.420 --> 00:47:50.079

00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:50.599
 the site

00:47:50.599 --> 00:47:53.880
 and so

00:47:53.880 --> 00:47:54.300
 the Lord

00:47:54.300 --> 00:47:54.840
 goes on to

00:47:54.840 --> 00:47:55.300
 tell this

00:47:55.300 --> 00:47:55.700
 parable

00:47:55.700 --> 00:47:57.340
 to emphasize

00:47:57.340 --> 00:47:59.059
 the importance

00:47:59.059 --> 00:48:00.400
 of forgiveness

00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:02.579
 there is a

00:48:02.579 --> 00:48:04.539
 king and

00:48:04.539 --> 00:48:05.079
 he comes to

00:48:05.079 --> 00:48:05.400
 the end of

00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:05.880
 his tax

00:48:05.880 --> 00:48:06.840
 year and

00:48:06.840 --> 00:48:07.360
 he's settling

00:48:07.360 --> 00:48:08.000
 accounts with

00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:08.700
 his servants

00:48:08.700 --> 00:48:11.000
 verse 24

00:48:11.000 --> 00:48:11.700
 one servant

00:48:11.700 --> 00:48:12.160
 is brought

00:48:12.160 --> 00:48:12.559
 in who

00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:13.680
 owes ten

00:48:13.680 --> 00:48:14.720
 thousand

00:48:14.720 --> 00:48:15.820
 talents

00:48:15.820 --> 00:48:18.360
 if you

00:48:18.360 --> 00:48:19.579
 have the

00:48:19.579 --> 00:48:20.039
 footnote

00:48:20.039 --> 00:48:20.619
 in your

00:48:20.619 --> 00:48:21.920
 bibles I

00:48:21.920 --> 00:48:22.180
 have in

00:48:22.180 --> 00:48:22.599
 this church

00:48:22.599 --> 00:48:23.059
 bible you

00:48:23.059 --> 00:48:23.619
 can scan

00:48:23.619 --> 00:48:25.599
 down and

00:48:25.599 --> 00:48:26.000
 it says a

00:48:26.000 --> 00:48:26.559
 talent was a

00:48:26.559 --> 00:48:27.119
 monetary unit

00:48:27.119 --> 00:48:27.639
 worth about

00:48:27.639 --> 00:48:28.780
 twenty years

00:48:28.780 --> 00:48:30.280
 wages for

00:48:30.280 --> 00:48:31.019
 a labourer

00:48:31.019 --> 00:48:33.100
 so here is

00:48:33.100 --> 00:48:33.519
 a man

00:48:33.519 --> 00:48:35.100
 who somehow

00:48:35.100 --> 00:48:35.540
 and we don't

00:48:35.540 --> 00:48:35.920
 know how

00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:36.700
 has run up

00:48:36.700 --> 00:48:37.760
 extraordinary

00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:39.000
 debts in

00:48:39.000 --> 00:48:39.500
 the service

00:48:39.500 --> 00:48:40.060
 of the king

00:48:40.060 --> 00:48:41.100
 not thousands

00:48:41.100 --> 00:48:41.600
 of pounds

00:48:41.600 --> 00:48:42.100
 or millions

00:48:42.100 --> 00:48:42.580
 of pounds

00:48:42.580 --> 00:48:43.700
 but billions

00:48:43.700 --> 00:48:44.480
 of pounds

00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.580
 Paul Allen

00:48:47.580 --> 00:48:48.080
 was worth

00:48:48.080 --> 00:48:48.460
 I think

00:48:48.460 --> 00:48:49.000
 at his peak

00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:49.480
 something like

00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:50.240
 twenty six

00:48:50.240 --> 00:48:51.680
 billion pounds

00:48:51.680 --> 00:48:53.220
 Microsoft

00:48:53.220 --> 00:48:53.820

00:48:53.820 --> 00:48:54.560
 largest companies

00:48:54.560 --> 00:48:55.040
 in the world

00:48:55.040 --> 00:48:55.880
 it is that

00:48:55.880 --> 00:48:56.620
 kind of sum

00:48:56.620 --> 00:48:57.280
 of money

00:48:57.280 --> 00:48:58.200
 this man

00:48:58.200 --> 00:48:58.740
 is in

00:48:58.740 --> 00:48:59.140
 debt

00:48:59.140 --> 00:49:02.440
 and he

00:49:02.440 --> 00:49:02.920
 comes before

00:49:02.920 --> 00:49:03.420
 the king

00:49:05.580 --> 00:49:06.140

00:49:06.140 --> 00:49:06.540
 says he

00:49:06.540 --> 00:49:06.920
 could not

00:49:06.920 --> 00:49:07.280
 pay

00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:09.040
 his master

00:49:09.040 --> 00:49:09.680
 ordered him

00:49:09.680 --> 00:49:10.519
 to be sold

00:49:10.519 --> 00:49:11.700
 with his

00:49:11.700 --> 00:49:12.080
 wife

00:49:12.080 --> 00:49:13.500

00:49:13.500 --> 00:49:14.460

00:49:14.460 --> 00:49:14.720
 that he

00:49:14.720 --> 00:49:15.140
 had

00:49:15.140 --> 00:49:16.000
 total

00:50:17.199 --> 00:50:18.000
 unworthy

00:50:18.000 --> 00:50:19.039
 servant

00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:22.420
 and would

00:50:22.420 --> 00:50:22.719
 that not

00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:23.279
 be cause

00:50:23.279 --> 00:50:23.739
 for great

00:50:23.739 --> 00:50:24.420
 rejoicing

00:50:24.420 --> 00:50:25.820
 as he has

00:50:25.820 --> 00:50:26.519
 back his

00:50:26.519 --> 00:50:26.880
 home

00:50:26.880 --> 00:50:27.199
 as he

00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:28.019
 has back

00:50:28.019 --> 00:50:28.719
 his wife

00:50:28.719 --> 00:50:29.099
 and his

00:50:29.099 --> 00:50:29.739
 children

00:50:29.739 --> 00:50:30.400
 as he

00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:31.019
 has back

00:50:31.019 --> 00:50:31.800
 his life

00:50:31.800 --> 00:50:32.420
 and you

00:50:32.420 --> 00:50:32.820
 think it

00:50:32.820 --> 00:50:33.119
 might be

00:50:33.119 --> 00:50:33.440
 the kind

00:50:33.440 --> 00:50:34.279
 of rejoicing

00:50:34.279 --> 00:50:34.699
 we see

00:50:34.699 --> 00:50:35.279
 earlier in the

00:50:35.279 --> 00:50:35.679
 chapter

00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:37.099
 gathering

00:50:37.099 --> 00:50:37.539
 together

00:50:37.539 --> 00:50:38.099
 friends

00:50:38.099 --> 00:50:38.920
 praising

00:50:38.920 --> 00:50:39.460
 the master

00:50:39.460 --> 00:50:39.900
 who showed

00:50:39.900 --> 00:50:40.059
 him

00:50:40.059 --> 00:50:40.460
 mercy

00:50:40.460 --> 00:50:43.139
 given his

00:50:43.139 --> 00:50:44.019
 life back

00:50:44.019 --> 00:50:48.500
 but on

00:50:48.500 --> 00:50:48.719
 the way

00:50:48.719 --> 00:50:49.059
 home

00:50:49.059 --> 00:50:50.920
 he meets

00:50:50.920 --> 00:50:51.159
 one of

00:50:51.159 --> 00:50:51.300
 his

00:50:51.300 --> 00:50:51.780
 colleagues

00:50:51.780 --> 00:50:54.500
 and this

00:50:54.500 --> 00:50:55.000
 man owes

00:50:55.000 --> 00:50:55.300
 him

00:50:55.300 --> 00:50:57.059
 a hundred

00:50:57.059 --> 00:50:58.860
 denarii

00:50:58.860 --> 00:51:00.980
 a denarii

00:51:00.980 --> 00:51:01.259
 was a

00:51:01.259 --> 00:51:01.619
 day's

00:51:01.619 --> 00:51:02.059
 wage

00:51:02.059 --> 00:51:02.519
 so we're

00:51:02.519 --> 00:51:03.179
 talking here

00:51:03.179 --> 00:51:03.860
 a couple

00:51:03.860 --> 00:51:04.219
 of months

00:51:04.219 --> 00:51:04.699
 salary

00:51:04.699 --> 00:51:06.440
 a matter

00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:06.940
 of a

00:51:06.940 --> 00:51:07.179
 few

00:51:07.179 --> 00:51:07.599
 thousand

00:51:07.599 --> 00:51:08.139
 pounds

00:51:08.139 --> 00:51:10.559
 and instead

00:51:10.559 --> 00:51:11.059
 of telling

00:51:11.059 --> 00:51:11.440
 him the

00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:12.039
 good news

00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:12.480
 about the

00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:12.840
 generous

00:51:12.840 --> 00:51:13.259
 master

00:51:13.260 --> 00:51:14.240
 he seizes

00:51:14.240 --> 00:51:14.540
 him

00:51:14.540 --> 00:51:15.500
 and chokes

00:51:15.500 --> 00:51:15.760
 him

00:51:15.760 --> 00:51:16.260
 and says

00:51:16.260 --> 00:51:16.800
 pay what

00:51:16.800 --> 00:51:17.220
 you owe

00:51:17.220 --> 00:51:20.420
 and the

00:51:20.420 --> 00:51:21.020
 fellow servant

00:51:21.020 --> 00:51:21.700
 falls down

00:51:21.700 --> 00:51:22.180
 and pleads

00:51:22.180 --> 00:51:22.580
 with him

00:51:22.580 --> 00:51:24.320
 and he

00:51:24.320 --> 00:51:24.880
 says the

00:51:24.880 --> 00:51:25.660
 very same

00:51:25.660 --> 00:51:26.180
 words

00:51:26.180 --> 00:51:26.960
 the first

00:51:26.960 --> 00:51:27.280
 servant

00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:27.800
 said to

00:51:27.800 --> 00:51:28.420
 his master

00:51:28.420 --> 00:51:29.440
 have patience

00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:29.820
 with me

00:51:29.820 --> 00:51:30.100
 and I

00:51:30.100 --> 00:51:30.660
 will repay

00:51:30.660 --> 00:51:31.240
 you

00:51:31.240 --> 00:51:35.600
 and you

00:51:35.600 --> 00:51:36.020
 might think

00:51:36.020 --> 00:51:36.260
 he would

00:51:36.260 --> 00:51:36.860
 have patience

00:51:36.860 --> 00:51:38.220
 and in his

00:51:38.220 --> 00:51:39.140
 joy and in

00:51:39.140 --> 00:51:39.860
 his gratitude

00:51:39.860 --> 00:51:40.440
 and in his

00:51:40.440 --> 00:51:41.140
 gladness

00:51:41.140 --> 00:51:41.920
 let the

00:51:41.920 --> 00:51:42.480
 man go

00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:45.420
 but verse

00:51:45.420 --> 00:51:45.760
 30

00:51:45.760 --> 00:51:46.500
 he refused

00:51:46.500 --> 00:51:48.240
 and he

00:51:48.240 --> 00:51:48.619
 went and

00:51:48.619 --> 00:51:48.940
 put him

00:51:48.940 --> 00:51:49.519
 in prison

00:51:49.519 --> 00:51:50.639
 until he

00:51:50.639 --> 00:51:51.099
 should pay

00:51:51.099 --> 00:51:51.740
 the debt

00:51:51.740 --> 00:51:55.179
 and when the

00:51:55.179 --> 00:51:55.800
 fellow servants

00:51:55.800 --> 00:51:56.360
 hear about this

00:51:56.360 --> 00:51:56.980
 they're appalled

00:51:56.980 --> 00:51:58.260
 and they go to

00:51:58.260 --> 00:51:58.719
 the master

00:51:58.719 --> 00:52:00.079
 and they tell

00:52:00.079 --> 00:52:00.400
 him what

00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:00.800
 happened

00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:02.579
 and the

00:52:02.579 --> 00:52:03.159
 master is

00:52:03.159 --> 00:52:03.740
 angry

00:52:03.740 --> 00:52:05.119
 righteously

00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:05.760
 angry

00:52:05.760 --> 00:52:06.699
 you wicked

00:52:06.699 --> 00:52:07.179
 servant

00:52:07.179 --> 00:52:08.320
 I forgave you

00:52:08.320 --> 00:52:09.300
 all that debt

00:52:09.300 --> 00:52:10.400
 billions of

00:52:10.400 --> 00:52:10.960
 pounds

00:52:10.960 --> 00:52:12.440
 because you

00:52:12.440 --> 00:52:13.119
 pleaded with

00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:13.559
 me

00:52:13.559 --> 00:52:15.300
 and should

00:52:15.300 --> 00:52:15.619
 you not

00:52:15.619 --> 00:52:16.000
 have had

00:52:16.000 --> 00:52:16.559
 mercy on

00:52:16.559 --> 00:52:16.980
 your fellow

00:52:16.980 --> 00:52:17.460
 servant

00:52:17.460 --> 00:52:18.980
 as I

00:52:18.980 --> 00:52:20.059
 had mercy

00:52:20.059 --> 00:52:21.740
 on you

00:52:21.740 --> 00:52:24.420
 he was

00:52:24.420 --> 00:52:24.880
 shown

00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:25.619
 mercy

00:52:25.619 --> 00:52:26.180
 but he

00:52:26.180 --> 00:52:26.880
 refused to

00:52:26.880 --> 00:52:28.119
 show mercy

00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:28.800
 he was

00:52:28.800 --> 00:52:29.260
 forgiven

00:52:29.260 --> 00:52:29.700
 but he

00:52:29.700 --> 00:52:30.400
 refused

00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:31.380
 to forgive

00:52:31.380 --> 00:52:32.260
 others

00:52:32.260 --> 00:52:35.380
 and Jesus

00:52:35.380 --> 00:52:36.680
 warns

00:52:36.680 --> 00:52:37.580
 what his

00:52:37.580 --> 00:52:38.120
 heavenly father

00:52:38.120 --> 00:52:38.520
 will do

00:52:38.520 --> 00:52:39.180
 to everyone

00:52:39.180 --> 00:52:40.440
 if they do

00:52:40.440 --> 00:52:40.880
 not forgive

00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:41.280
 their brother

00:52:41.280 --> 00:52:41.680
 from the

00:52:41.680 --> 00:52:42.140
 heart

00:52:42.140 --> 00:52:44.200
 casting them

00:52:44.200 --> 00:52:44.740
 to the

00:52:44.740 --> 00:52:45.180
 jailers

00:52:45.180 --> 00:52:45.680
 until they

00:52:45.680 --> 00:52:46.260
 should pay

00:52:46.260 --> 00:52:47.260
 all the

00:52:47.260 --> 00:52:47.720
 debt

00:52:47.719 --> 00:52:52.319
 so Peter's

00:52:52.319 --> 00:52:52.919
 answer

00:52:52.919 --> 00:52:54.339
 how often

00:52:54.339 --> 00:52:54.739
 will I

00:52:54.739 --> 00:52:55.279
 forgive my

00:52:55.279 --> 00:52:55.539
 brother

00:52:55.539 --> 00:52:55.899
 Jesus

00:52:55.899 --> 00:52:56.439
 says

00:52:56.439 --> 00:52:57.339
 70

00:52:57.339 --> 00:52:58.099
 times

00:52:58.099 --> 00:52:58.879
 7

00:52:58.879 --> 00:53:00.359
 whenever

00:53:00.359 --> 00:53:00.959
 your brother

00:53:00.959 --> 00:53:01.759
 asks to be

00:53:01.759 --> 00:53:02.059
 forgiven

00:53:02.059 --> 00:53:02.439
 you will

00:53:02.439 --> 00:53:03.019
 forgive him

00:53:03.019 --> 00:53:04.239
 because you

00:53:04.239 --> 00:53:04.799
 will remember

00:53:04.799 --> 00:53:05.459
 how much

00:53:05.459 --> 00:53:06.379
 you have

00:53:06.379 --> 00:53:06.739
 been

00:53:06.739 --> 00:53:07.439
 forgiven

00:53:07.439 --> 00:53:08.259
 by your

00:53:08.259 --> 00:53:09.159
 master

00:53:09.159 --> 00:53:13.619
 one writer

00:53:13.619 --> 00:53:14.199
 says

00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:16.359
 it is the

00:53:16.359 --> 00:53:16.980
 person who

00:53:16.980 --> 00:53:17.559
 most knows

00:53:17.559 --> 00:53:18.019
 himself

00:53:18.019 --> 00:53:18.779
 liable to

00:53:18.779 --> 00:53:19.259
 fall

00:53:19.259 --> 00:53:21.379
 that will

00:53:21.379 --> 00:53:22.000
 be most

00:53:22.000 --> 00:53:22.859
 likely to

00:53:22.859 --> 00:53:23.500
 overlook any

00:53:23.500 --> 00:53:23.960
 offenses

00:53:23.960 --> 00:53:25.319
 from his

00:53:25.319 --> 00:53:25.699
 fellow

00:53:25.699 --> 00:53:26.699
 man

00:53:26.699 --> 00:53:30.019
 if somebody

00:53:30.019 --> 00:53:30.919
 sins against

00:53:30.919 --> 00:53:31.219
 us

00:53:31.219 --> 00:53:31.759
 if somebody

00:53:31.759 --> 00:53:32.379
 offends

00:53:32.379 --> 00:53:32.759
 us

00:53:32.759 --> 00:53:34.639
 we need to

00:53:34.639 --> 00:53:35.219
 remember how

00:53:35.219 --> 00:53:35.859
 much we

00:53:35.859 --> 00:53:37.219
 in our lives

00:53:37.219 --> 00:53:37.960
 have sinned

00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:39.239
 against a

00:53:39.239 --> 00:53:39.839
 holy God

00:53:39.839 --> 00:53:40.359
 how much we

00:53:40.359 --> 00:53:41.000
 have offended

00:53:41.000 --> 00:53:41.719
 the creator

00:53:41.719 --> 00:53:42.519
 and ruler

00:53:42.519 --> 00:53:43.480
 of all things

00:53:43.480 --> 00:53:46.340
 and then to

00:53:46.340 --> 00:53:46.940
 remember how

00:53:46.940 --> 00:53:47.699
 much he has

00:53:47.699 --> 00:53:48.579
 forgiven us

00:53:48.579 --> 00:53:50.059
 what it

00:53:50.059 --> 00:53:51.380
 cost him

00:53:51.380 --> 00:53:51.940
 not in

00:53:51.940 --> 00:53:52.579
 talents

00:53:52.579 --> 00:53:54.760
 but in the

00:53:54.760 --> 00:53:55.579
 precious blood

00:53:55.579 --> 00:53:56.920
 of the Lord

00:53:56.920 --> 00:53:57.820
 Jesus Christ

00:53:57.820 --> 00:53:58.760
 shed at

00:53:58.760 --> 00:53:59.340
 Calvary

00:53:59.340 --> 00:54:01.240
 and we

00:54:01.240 --> 00:54:01.880
 remember how

00:54:01.880 --> 00:54:03.000
 he cancelled

00:54:03.000 --> 00:54:03.539
 all our

00:54:03.539 --> 00:54:04.000
 debts

00:54:04.000 --> 00:54:05.980
 it should

00:54:05.980 --> 00:54:06.320
 make it

00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:06.960
 possible for

00:54:06.960 --> 00:54:07.380
 us to

00:54:07.380 --> 00:54:08.119
 forgive others

00:54:08.119 --> 00:54:10.940
 and to

00:54:10.940 --> 00:54:11.460
 forgive their

00:54:11.460 --> 00:54:12.280
 trespasses

00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:13.720
 as we

00:54:13.720 --> 00:54:14.320
 have

00:54:14.320 --> 00:54:15.000
 trespassed

00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:15.640
 against our

00:54:15.640 --> 00:54:16.040
 father

00:54:16.040 --> 00:54:19.820
 writing to

00:54:19.820 --> 00:54:20.240
 the church

00:54:20.240 --> 00:54:20.820
 in Ephesians

00:54:20.820 --> 00:54:21.300
 the apostle

00:54:21.300 --> 00:54:21.920
 Paul says

00:54:21.920 --> 00:54:22.540
 be kind

00:54:22.540 --> 00:54:22.920
 to one

00:54:22.920 --> 00:54:23.260
 another

00:54:23.260 --> 00:54:25.060
 tender

00:54:25.060 --> 00:54:25.820
 hearted

00:54:25.820 --> 00:54:27.280
 forgiving

00:54:27.280 --> 00:54:27.960
 one another

00:54:27.960 --> 00:54:29.940
 as God

00:54:29.940 --> 00:54:31.100
 in Christ

00:54:31.100 --> 00:54:32.460
 forgave

00:54:32.460 --> 00:54:33.560
 you

00:54:33.559 --> 00:54:36.619
 in the

00:54:36.619 --> 00:54:36.860
 sermon

00:54:36.860 --> 00:54:37.159
 of the

00:54:37.159 --> 00:54:37.340
 mount

00:54:37.340 --> 00:54:37.639
 Jesus

00:54:37.639 --> 00:54:38.000
 says

00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:38.279
 if you

00:54:38.279 --> 00:54:38.639
 forgive

00:54:38.639 --> 00:54:39.000
 others

00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:39.219
 their

00:54:39.219 --> 00:54:39.940
 trespasses

00:54:39.940 --> 00:54:40.619
 your

00:54:40.619 --> 00:54:40.980
 heavenly

00:54:40.980 --> 00:54:41.340
 father

00:54:41.340 --> 00:54:41.659
 will

00:54:41.659 --> 00:54:42.219
 forgive

00:54:42.219 --> 00:54:42.779
 you

00:54:42.779 --> 00:54:44.279
 but if

00:54:44.279 --> 00:54:44.579
 you do

00:54:44.579 --> 00:54:44.799
 not

00:54:44.799 --> 00:54:45.159
 forgive

00:54:45.159 --> 00:54:45.420
 one

00:54:45.420 --> 00:54:45.799
 another

00:54:45.799 --> 00:54:46.759
 their

00:54:46.759 --> 00:54:47.460
 trespasses

00:54:47.460 --> 00:54:47.779
 neither

00:54:47.779 --> 00:54:48.219
 will

00:54:48.219 --> 00:54:48.940
 your

00:54:48.940 --> 00:54:49.279
 heavenly

00:54:49.279 --> 00:54:49.679
 father

00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:50.119
 forgive

00:54:50.119 --> 00:54:50.539
 your

00:54:50.539 --> 00:54:51.840
 trespasses

00:54:51.840 --> 00:54:54.460
 we refuse

00:54:54.460 --> 00:54:55.100
 to cancel

00:54:55.100 --> 00:54:56.120
 the debts

00:54:56.120 --> 00:54:57.240
 of others

00:54:57.240 --> 00:54:58.160
 then our

00:54:58.160 --> 00:54:58.559
 debt

00:54:58.559 --> 00:54:59.559
 will

00:54:59.559 --> 00:55:00.500
 remain

00:55:00.500 --> 00:55:03.559
 and so

00:55:03.559 --> 00:55:03.880
 the Lord

00:55:03.880 --> 00:55:04.640
 teaches us

00:55:04.640 --> 00:55:05.559
 to

00:55:05.559 --> 00:55:06.559
 practice

00:55:06.559 --> 00:55:08.100
 forgiveness

00:55:08.100 --> 00:55:09.000
 to show

00:55:09.000 --> 00:55:10.160
 the mercy

00:55:10.160 --> 00:55:10.720
 that we

00:55:10.720 --> 00:55:11.539
 have been

00:55:11.539 --> 00:55:12.400
 shown

00:55:12.400 --> 00:55:15.960
 and that's

00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:16.320
 such a

00:55:16.320 --> 00:55:16.720
 liberating

00:55:16.720 --> 00:55:17.100
 thing

00:55:17.100 --> 00:55:19.039
 it's not

00:55:19.039 --> 00:55:19.559
 an easy

00:55:19.559 --> 00:55:19.940
 thing

00:55:19.940 --> 00:55:20.620
 by any

00:55:20.620 --> 00:55:21.079
 stretch

00:55:21.079 --> 00:55:23.539
 but it

00:55:23.539 --> 00:55:24.119
 frees us

00:55:24.119 --> 00:55:24.619
 from

00:55:24.619 --> 00:55:25.259
 unforgiveness

00:55:25.259 --> 00:55:25.819
 it frees

00:55:25.819 --> 00:55:26.179
 us from

00:55:26.179 --> 00:55:26.639
 bitterness

00:55:26.639 --> 00:55:30.360
 and somebody

00:55:30.360 --> 00:55:30.900
 said

00:55:30.900 --> 00:55:32.840
 bitterness

00:55:32.840 --> 00:55:35.159
 resenting

00:55:35.159 --> 00:55:35.559
 someone

00:55:35.559 --> 00:55:37.519
 it's like

00:55:37.519 --> 00:55:38.199
 drinking a

00:55:38.199 --> 00:55:38.579
 cup of

00:55:38.579 --> 00:55:39.340
 poison and

00:55:39.340 --> 00:55:40.099
 expecting the

00:55:40.099 --> 00:55:40.619
 other person

00:55:40.619 --> 00:55:41.219
 to die

00:55:41.219 --> 00:55:43.259
 it only

00:55:43.259 --> 00:55:43.860
 harms

00:55:43.860 --> 00:55:44.819
 ourselves

00:55:44.819 --> 00:55:49.000
 one writer

00:55:49.000 --> 00:55:49.980
 speaks of

00:55:49.980 --> 00:55:50.579
 the liberation

00:55:50.579 --> 00:55:51.159
 of forgiveness

00:55:51.159 --> 00:55:51.639
 in these

00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:52.039
 words

00:55:52.039 --> 00:55:53.380
 a Christian

00:55:53.380 --> 00:55:54.920
 will find it

00:55:54.920 --> 00:55:55.539
 cheaper to

00:55:55.539 --> 00:55:56.119
 pardon than

00:55:56.119 --> 00:55:56.699
 to resent

00:55:56.699 --> 00:55:59.259
 forgiveness

00:55:59.259 --> 00:56:00.980
 saves us

00:56:00.980 --> 00:56:01.699
 the expense

00:56:01.699 --> 00:56:02.239
 of anger

00:56:02.239 --> 00:56:03.639
 the cost

00:56:03.639 --> 00:56:04.259
 of hatred

00:56:04.259 --> 00:56:05.380
 and the

00:56:05.380 --> 00:56:05.880
 waste

00:56:05.880 --> 00:56:06.860
 of

00:56:06.860 --> 00:56:07.699
 our

00:56:07.699 --> 00:56:08.960
 spirits

00:56:08.960 --> 00:56:12.920
 so the

00:56:12.920 --> 00:56:13.139
 Lord

00:56:13.139 --> 00:56:13.800
 recognizes

00:56:13.800 --> 00:56:14.780
 there will

00:56:14.780 --> 00:56:15.119
 be great

00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:15.760
 joys in

00:56:15.760 --> 00:56:16.059
 Christian

00:56:16.059 --> 00:56:16.519
 fellowship

00:56:16.519 --> 00:56:17.539
 courage

00:56:17.539 --> 00:56:19.280
 such as

00:56:19.280 --> 00:56:19.480
 we've

00:56:19.480 --> 00:56:19.860
 shared

00:56:19.860 --> 00:56:20.119
 this

00:56:20.119 --> 00:56:20.440
 weekend

00:56:20.440 --> 00:56:20.720
 but there

00:56:20.720 --> 00:56:20.980
 will be

00:56:20.980 --> 00:56:21.599
 difficulties

00:56:21.599 --> 00:56:23.019
 differences

00:56:23.019 --> 00:56:25.059
 and he

00:56:25.059 --> 00:56:25.340
 says we

00:56:25.340 --> 00:56:25.699
 need to be

00:56:25.699 --> 00:56:26.099
 realistic

00:56:26.099 --> 00:56:27.139
 we need to

00:56:27.139 --> 00:56:27.599
 be open

00:56:27.599 --> 00:56:28.460
 transparent

00:56:28.460 --> 00:56:29.079
 we need to

00:56:29.079 --> 00:56:30.000
 be willing

00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:30.659
 to receive

00:56:30.659 --> 00:56:31.360
 correction

00:56:31.360 --> 00:56:32.840
 willing

00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:33.420
 sometimes

00:56:33.420 --> 00:56:34.000
 even to

00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:34.720
 give

00:56:34.720 --> 00:56:35.280
 correction

00:56:35.280 --> 00:56:35.800
 to show

00:56:35.800 --> 00:56:36.380
 one another

00:56:36.380 --> 00:56:37.460
 our faults

00:56:37.460 --> 00:56:37.980
 in a spirit

00:56:37.980 --> 00:56:38.539
 of love

00:56:38.539 --> 00:56:40.940
 but we

00:56:40.940 --> 00:56:41.360
 need also

00:56:41.360 --> 00:56:41.760
 to bear

00:56:41.760 --> 00:56:42.199
 with one

00:56:42.199 --> 00:56:42.480
 another

00:56:42.480 --> 00:56:43.079
 to love

00:56:43.079 --> 00:56:44.119
 one another

00:56:44.119 --> 00:56:46.240
 and to

00:56:46.240 --> 00:56:46.639
 show one

00:56:46.639 --> 00:56:46.880
 another

00:56:46.880 --> 00:56:47.340
 the same

00:56:47.340 --> 00:56:47.820
 forgiveness

00:56:47.820 --> 00:56:48.860
 or something

00:56:48.860 --> 00:56:49.380
 of the same

00:56:49.380 --> 00:56:49.780
 forgiveness

00:56:49.780 --> 00:56:51.139
 which we

00:56:51.139 --> 00:56:51.460
 have been

00:56:51.460 --> 00:56:51.860
 shown

00:56:51.860 --> 00:56:52.900
 by our

00:56:52.900 --> 00:56:53.320
 master

00:56:53.320 --> 00:56:54.800
 who at

00:56:54.800 --> 00:56:55.420
 the ultimate

00:56:55.420 --> 00:56:56.099
 cost to

00:56:56.099 --> 00:56:56.539
 himself

00:56:56.539 --> 00:56:57.159
 sent his

00:56:57.159 --> 00:56:57.599
 son the

00:56:57.599 --> 00:56:58.159
 Lord Jesus

00:56:58.159 --> 00:56:58.579
 Christ

00:56:58.579 --> 00:56:59.199
 into this

00:56:59.199 --> 00:56:59.519
 world

00:56:59.519 --> 00:57:01.019
 in order

00:57:01.019 --> 00:57:01.480
 to free

00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:01.840
 us from

00:57:01.840 --> 00:57:02.440
 our slavery

00:57:02.440 --> 00:57:03.840
 and to

00:57:03.840 --> 00:57:04.380
 forgive us

00:57:04.380 --> 00:57:05.820
 all of

00:57:05.820 --> 00:57:06.579
 our sins

00:57:06.579 --> 00:57:08.659
 he showed

00:57:08.659 --> 00:57:09.320
 us our

00:57:09.320 --> 00:57:09.800
 faults

00:57:09.800 --> 00:57:11.240
 he shows

00:57:11.240 --> 00:57:12.320
 us his

00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:12.740
 forgiveness

00:57:12.740 --> 00:57:14.519
 and he

00:57:14.519 --> 00:57:15.639
 invites us

00:57:15.639 --> 00:57:16.360
 to do the

00:57:16.360 --> 00:57:16.700
 same

00:57:16.700 --> 00:57:17.700
 one to

00:57:17.700 --> 00:57:18.000
 another

00:57:18.000 --> 00:57:19.420
 that we

00:57:19.420 --> 00:57:20.000
 might maintain

00:57:20.000 --> 00:57:20.480
 the unity

00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:21.159
 of the spirit

00:57:21.159 --> 00:57:22.740
 in the bonds

00:57:22.740 --> 00:57:23.840
 of peace

00:57:23.840 --> 00:57:27.420
 well we

00:57:27.420 --> 00:57:27.900
 need God's

00:57:27.900 --> 00:57:28.860
 help in

00:57:28.860 --> 00:57:29.240
 order to

00:57:29.240 --> 00:57:29.680
 do that

00:57:29.680 --> 00:57:31.340
 and so

00:57:31.340 --> 00:57:32.440
 we're going

00:57:32.440 --> 00:57:32.780
 to pray

00:57:32.780 --> 00:57:33.500
 once more

00:57:33.500 --> 00:57:34.920
 before we

00:57:34.920 --> 00:57:35.300
 close

00:57:35.300 --> 00:57:36.800
 with the

01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:38.420
 of sin

01:01:38.420 --> 01:01:39.300
 casting it

01:01:39.300 --> 01:01:40.740

01:01:41.180 --> 01:01:41.440

01:01:41.440 --> 01:01:41.700
 sea

01:01:41.699 --> 01:01:44.719

01:01:46.039 --> 01:01:46.859
 our sins

01:01:46.859 --> 01:01:47.899
 from us

01:01:47.899 --> 01:01:48.460
 as far

01:01:48.460 --> 01:01:48.799

01:01:55.079 --> 01:01:57.419

01:01:57.419 --> 01:01:57.759

01:01:59.000 --> 01:02:01.279
 so help

01:02:10.500 --> 01:02:10.899

01:02:10.899 --> 01:02:11.199
 another

01:02:11.199 --> 01:02:12.259
 this

01:02:12.259 --> 01:02:12.619
 night

01:02:12.619 --> 01:02:13.619
 and in

01:02:13.619 --> 01:02:13.960
 the days

01:02:13.960 --> 01:02:14.399
 to come

01:02:14.399 --> 01:02:14.799
 for we

01:02:14.799 --> 01:02:15.199
 pray in

01:02:37.519 --> 01:02:37.799
 metrical

01:02:37.799 --> 01:02:38.319
 version of

01:02:38.319 --> 01:02:39.299
 Psalm 130

01:02:39.299 --> 01:02:40.599
 to the

01:02:40.599 --> 01:02:40.739
 gratitude

01:02:40.739 --> 01:02:41.420
 martyrdom

01:02:41.420 --> 01:02:43.360
 this great

01:02:43.360 --> 01:02:44.139
 psalm of

01:02:44.139 --> 01:02:44.860
 God's

01:02:44.860 --> 01:02:45.400
 salvation

01:02:45.400 --> 01:02:46.779
 the

01:02:46.779 --> 01:02:47.259
 plenteous

01:02:47.259 --> 01:02:47.759
 redemption

01:02:47.759 --> 01:02:49.940
 we find

01:02:49.940 --> 01:02:50.940
 in Christ

01:02:50.940 --> 01:02:52.500
 the forgiveness

01:02:52.500 --> 01:02:53.000
 from all

01:02:53.000 --> 01:02:53.739
 their iniquities

01:02:53.739 --> 01:02:54.679
 but we shall

01:02:54.679 --> 01:02:55.279
 sing together

01:02:55.279 --> 01:02:56.380
 Psalm 130

01:02:56.380 --> 01:02:57.139
 Lord from the

01:02:57.139 --> 01:02:57.579
 depths to

01:02:57.579 --> 01:02:58.259
 thee I cried

01:02:58.259 --> 01:02:59.339
 my voice

01:02:59.339 --> 01:02:59.799
 Lord do

01:02:59.799 --> 01:03:00.299
 thou hear

01:03:00.299 --> 01:03:01.480
 and to

01:03:01.480 --> 01:03:02.339
 my supplications

01:03:02.339 --> 01:03:03.119
 voice give

01:03:03.119 --> 01:03:03.799
 an attentive

01:03:03.799 --> 01:03:05.339
 ear we sing

01:03:05.339 --> 01:03:06.539
 together to

01:03:06.539 --> 01:03:07.059
 the praise of

01:03:07.059 --> 01:03:08.460
 God

01:03:08.460 --> 01:03:16.239
 Lord from

01:03:16.239 --> 01:03:16.799
 the torch

01:03:16.799 --> 01:03:19.340
 toward

01:03:19.340 --> 01:03:22.079
 thee I

01:03:22.299 --> 01:03:23.779
 and

01:03:23.779 --> 01:03:24.719
 my voice

01:03:24.719 --> 01:03:25.380
 Lord do

01:03:25.380 --> 01:03:47.380
 Lord, do thou hear unto my suffocation's voice, if thou thou tender here?

01:03:47.380 --> 01:04:04.680
 Lord, who shall standeth thou, O Lord, to spark in liberty?

01:04:04.679 --> 01:04:23.679
 But yet with thee forgivenesses, that fear forbids me.

01:04:23.679 --> 01:04:42.679
 I wait for God, my soul doth wait, my hope is in his word.

01:04:42.679 --> 01:05:00.679
 O Lord, may thou, O morning watch, my soul doth wait for the Lord.

01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:18.679
 I say, Lord, I may not be watch, the morning light to see.

01:05:18.679 --> 01:05:35.679
 Let Israel, O live the Lord, arm with liberty.

01:05:35.679 --> 01:05:55.679
 Unplaintious redemption is never found within.

01:05:55.679 --> 01:06:13.679
 And from all his liberty, Israel shall redeem.

01:06:13.679 --> 01:06:14.679
 Amen.

01:06:43.679 --> 01:06:49.679
 Amen.

01:07:13.679 --> 01:07:14.679
 Amen.

01:07:15.679 --> 01:07:16.679
 Amen.
