WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:14.000 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of all our hearts be found acceptable in thy sight O Lord our strength and our Redeemer. 00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:19.000 ! Amen. 00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:27.000 It isn't often that I am given clear instruction about what I am to preach about. 00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:30.000 Normally it is left up to me. 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:37.000 But today on this first Sunday in February I am doing as I have been told. 00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:44.000 Which is not a first but it happens. 00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:56.000 And so we are part way through this teaching series of Christian character and with the subject resisting temptation. 00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:59.000 I think I have drawn the short straw. 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:02.000 But be that as it may. 00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:11.000 A few minutes ago Grace read that very long lesson about the story of Joseph in Potiphar's house. 00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:18.000 It is a wonderful story of seduction. 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.000 There is that verse isn't there? 00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:24.000 Will you come to bed with me? 00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:25.000 Whoa! 00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.000 Temptation. 00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.000 Real, live temptation. 00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.000 We have no idea whether Potiphar's wife was a looker or not. 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:39.000 But what we do know is that Joseph certainly was. 00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:47.000 If you are listening to the scripture, as Grace read it, it tells you that Joseph was well made. 00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:48.000 He was handsome. 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.000 A real Adonis if you like. 00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:56.000 The sort of man that turns ladies heads and they, 00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:57.000 Whoa! 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.000 As he walked past. 00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:12.000 Is there any wonder that Joseph was tempted but at least he didn't succumb. 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:13.000 He didn't succumb. 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:18.000 And his response was worthy of note. 00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:22.000 This is what he says in response to the request. 00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.000 Come to bed. 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.000 No one is greater in this house than I am. 00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:34.000 My master has withheld nothing from me except you. 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.000 Because you are his wife. 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:43.000 How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God? 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:45.000 That was his response. 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:50.000 And there is no such thing like a woman scorned. 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:56.000 And when she didn't get her way, she made Joseph pay. 00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:58.000 Pay big time. 00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:01.000 And so she told her husband when he came home, 00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:04.000 This is what this Hebrew has done. 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:06.000 He tried to seduce me. 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:10.000 Lies, lies, lies. 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.000 But there we go. 00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:14.000 That's how it happened. 00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:27.000 And so poor Joseph finds himself ensconced in jail for a crime that he had not committed. 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:45.000 And this is the whole reason that Christian people need to be aware that there is that little word called know, which has such a magnificent expression in it. 00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:48.000 Know and mean it. 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:49.000 Know and mean it. 00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:49.000 00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.000 Know and mean it. 00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:56.000 In fact, the moral standards of Joseph were extremely clear. 00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:02.000 There was no way he was going to compromise his models and sin against God. 00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:07.000 Tempted, resisted, and because of his stand in prison. 00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:15.000 That's the basis upon which we base our thinking this morning. 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:24.000 But I want to move on and look at what Jesus says about temptation. 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:30.000 And particularly in the sixth chapter of Matthew's Gospel. 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:37.000 That part of the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus is teaching his disciples how to pray. 00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:40.000 First of all, he gives clear instructions about what to do. 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:47.000 Don't be like the hypocrites who stand on street corners flouting their importance. 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:52.000 Instead, when you pray, do it in private. 00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:55.000 Going to your own room and there. 00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:59.000 Don't use necessarily long words, but keep it simple and short. 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.000 And then comes the words of the Lord's Prayer. 00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:09.000 Which is short, but not particularly simple. 00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:14.000 Because there is one verse that has always caused me a bit of a problem. 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:17.000 One verse that says, 00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:20.000 Lead us not into temptation. 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:29.000 Now this gives the impression that God in his infinite wisdom is actually leading us into temptation. 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:35.000 And when they succumb, he can then point the finger at them and accuse them. 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:38.000 I told you not to do that and yet you did it. 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:43.000 This is not really the case. 00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:54.000 Because one commentator states that the original Aramaic was cause us not to enter into temptation. 00:05:55.000 --> 00:06:00.000 It can also bring us, it can also mean, do not bring us to the test. 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.000 Now I can understand that. 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:09.000 Because inevitably, every day of our lives we are being tested. 00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:13.000 And it's whether we succumb that really matters. 00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.000 First of all, temptation is real. 00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.000 Don't run away with the idea that it isn't, because it is. 00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:28.000 We are surrounded by things which seek to tempt us into all sorts of situations. 00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:33.000 Advertisements on television are a form of temptation. 00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:38.000 You need to buy this, you need to buy that, you need to buy a bigger car, you need to have a bigger house. 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:40.000 And so on and so forth. 00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:45.000 Tempting us to do things that we really, particularly don't want to do. 00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:50.000 And then of course people are attracted to gambling. 00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.000 The number of sites, adverts that come on television. 00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:58.000 Tempting people to gamble with whatever, whatever, whatever. 00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:01.000 In the hope that they might win huge sums of money. 00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:06.000 When they fail, they spend more and more, fall into addiction, 00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:10.000 and find themselves in a situation where there is no way out. 00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:19.000 Jesus knew what he was talking about when he talked about temptation. 00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:27.000 Because he himself was tempted when he was at his weakest and his most susceptible. 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:34.000 He spent 40 days in the wilderness and he was weak with hunger. 00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:36.000 What did the devil do? 00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:39.000 Tempted him at his weakest point. 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:42.000 If you are the son of God, he says. 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:50.000 And the word if signifies acceptance that the devil knew that he was the son of God. 00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:52.000 Then prove it. 00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:56.000 All you need to do is to command these stones to become bread. 00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.000 And you can eat your fill. 00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:04.000 And it would have been the easiest thing in the world for Jesus to succumb. 00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.000 In this moment of physical weakness to have surrendered to temptation. 00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:11.000 But to do so. 00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:14.000 To do so right at the beginning of his ministry. 00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:21.000 It would have been the end as far as he was concerned. 00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.000 And so he declined the offer. 00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:29.000 And in doing so gained victory over the devil. 00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:37.000 There is one temptation at the moment which is current amongst youngsters. 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:43.000 It seems to be cool to be carrying a knife. 00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:51.000 And the papers this week have been full of the tragedy in Birmingham. 00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:56.000 Where a 12 year old boy was stabbed to geth by a 15 year old. 00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:00.000 For no reason whatsoever. 00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:04.000 Just murdered in cold blood. 00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.000 Whether that youngster was tempted to show how manly he was. 00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:11.000 And he could do this. 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:15.000 And this young boy, 12 years of age. 00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:17.000 Disastrous consequences. 00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:20.000 Temptation is real. 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:23.000 It's a fact of life. 00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:25.000 We can't get away from it. 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.000 But in the end. 00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:32.000 Temptation is not in itself the end. 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:38.000 It's yielding to temptation. 00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:40.000 That is the sin. 00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:46.000 William Barclay in his study notes on Matthew's Gospel says this. 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:52.000 To modern ears the word tempt is always a bad word. 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:53.000 Well, it is. 00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:57.000 To modern ears the word tempt is always wrong. 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:00.000 It always means to seek to seduce into evil. 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:06.000 But in the Bible there is a Greek word which I can't pronounce. 00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:11.000 And it's often better translated by the word test. 00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:14.000 Rather than tempt. 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:21.000 And in the New Testament usage to tempt a person is not so much to seek to seduce a person. 00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:30.000 Rather, it is to test that person's faith and their willingness to do the things of God. 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.000 And Barclay goes on to use this illustration. 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:51.000 If metal is to be used in any form of structure or whatever, it is tested far beyond the stress that it is going to be needed in whatever project it's going to be used in. 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:53.000 It is tested. 00:10:53.000 --> 00:11:00.000 And you and I are tested every day of our lives. 00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:04.000 We come into situations that cause us problems. 00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:15.000 And we have to have the strength of will, aided by the grace of God, to not yield to temptation. 00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:24.000 That's fine insofar as it goes. 00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:29.000 But what about those temptations which the world throws at us? 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:31.000 Catches us off guard. 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:38.000 And before we know it, we are faced with a monumental challenge. 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:40.000 Shall I? 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:42.000 Or shan't I? 00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:46.000 Bring it to a personal point of view. 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:52.000 If I do this, will I be able to keep it from my loved ones? 00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:55.000 Will I be able to look them in the eye? 00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:59.000 Will I be able to stand before my God and say I failed? 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.000 Dare I take the risk? 00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:05.000 Common sense says don't. 00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:09.000 Use the word no. 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:10.000 No. 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:12.000 And stand up. 00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:15.000 Temptation is not a sin. 00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:17.000 Yielding is. 00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:22.000 When I was a boy in Sunday school more years ago than I care to remember, 00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:25.000 we used to use the hymn book Golden Bells. 00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.000 I'm sure you've come across it. 00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:30.000 A bit dated now. 00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:32.000 The hymn we sang quite regularly was, 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:33.000 Yield not to temptation. 00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:35.000 And I wonder if I might quote it to you. 00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:39.000 Yield not to temptation for yielding is sin. 00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.000 Each victory will help you. 00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:44.000 Some other to win. 00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:46.000 Fight manfully. 00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:48.000 That's his sexist. 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.000 Dark passion subdue. 00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:53.000 Look ever to Jesus and he will carry you through. 00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.000 Perhaps two of the greatest sins, 00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:01.000 sin is around us. 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:09.000 Perhaps two of the greatest temptations or tests are greed and sexual impropriety. 00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:12.000 Greed is always wanting more. 00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:19.000 And therefore being prepared to take whatever risk is necessary to increase our wealth. 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:27.000 And this sometimes means resorting to stealing in order to satisfy the craving for that more wealth. 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:28.000 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:37.000 And I can't ever forget the occasion when Bernie Eccleston, Ecclestone, not EGG, 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:41.000 he was the chap in charge of Formula One racing if you remember. 00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:44.000 And he was once asked, 00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:48.000 Do you really need more money Bernie? 00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:52.000 He was a billionaire twice over. 00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:54.000 And he said, 00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:55.000 You can never have enough. 00:13:55.000 --> 00:14:00.000 More or much needs more. 00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:06.000 And so this is temptation. 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:13.000 We need to do something so we can spend more and have more and enjoy more. 00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:15.000 Temptation. 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:20.000 The desire for more wealth was the carrot that Satan dangled before Jesus. 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:28.000 Matthew 4 verse 8 describes the third temptation as Jesus being taken to the top of a mountain. 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:32.000 So that Jesus could see what was there in front of him. 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:34.000 All this I will give you, says Satan. 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:36.000 You only have to do one thing. 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:42.000 Just bow down and worship me and all this will be yours. 00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:44.000 Get behind me, Satan. 00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:46.000 You shall not tempt the Lord your God. 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:53.000 The clear response was a resounding no. 00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:57.000 Maybe it's a lesson for us to learn. 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:07.000 In these enlightened days it appears that anything goes and sexual morality is placed on the back burner. 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:17.000 When the church is urged to catch up with the times and to embrace the liberal attitudes of society. 00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.000 And this is where sometimes we fail. 00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:24.000 Because the Christian church is called to be different. 00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:25.000 It is called to be separate. 00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:33.000 We need to stand up and be counted and not just embrace the modernity of society. 00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:34.000 This new mantra must be adhered to it all. 00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:34.000 00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:35.000 Sometimes the church appears to be out of touch, out of date. 00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:36.000 And some would say it's completely irrelevant. 00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:52.000 And then comes the temptation to loosen our standards. 00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:53.000 To become more with it. 00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:54.000 To become more with it. 00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:57.000 And to take on board the trappings of modernity. 00:15:57.000 --> 00:16:01.000 And bring about change so that we begin to fit in. 00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:03.000 Whatever that means. 00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:08.000 Paul in his letter to the church in Rome is quite adamant. 00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:14.000 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world. 00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:18.000 But be transformed by the renewing of your mind. 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:23.000 Then you will be able to resist. 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:26.000 To test and prove what God's will is. 00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:30.000 His good, pleasing and perfect will. 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:31.000 Romans 12. 00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:36.000 I was always given to understand. 00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:39.000 And I'm standing here as a Methodist. 00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:45.000 I always given to understand that Methodist was a part of the non-conformist structure. 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:51.000 John Wesley advocated that we should embrace the life of scriptural holiness. 00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:57.000 So scripture has to be the basis of everything we think and do. 00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:01.000 We take the authority of scripture as our benchmark. 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:06.000 And we are prepared to be seen as living a different life to the norm. 00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:11.000 Because in that respect we are different. 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:12.000 Our principles are different. 00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:15.000 Therefore we should live our lives differently. 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:21.000 We don't follow the path of conformity. 00:17:21.000 --> 00:17:24.000 We ought not to follow a sheep without a shepherd. 00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:27.000 But be prepared to stand and be counted. 00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:32.000 And be prepared to be seen as different. 00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:39.000 Finally, and in a sense I've said enough already. 00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:45.000 Change for change's sake is just not worth considering. 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:51.000 Unless it brings about a revival of those things that really matter. 00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:54.000 Scriptural holiness for one. 00:17:54.000 --> 00:18:00.000 Charles Wesley had the right idea when he penned two verses of a hymn. 00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:01.000 And it goes like this. 00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:04.000 A charge to keep I have. 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.000 A God to glorify. 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:11.000 A never dying soul to save and fit it for the sky. 00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:13.000 But this is it. 00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:16.000 To serve the present age my calling to fulfill. 00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:23.000 Oh, may it all my powers engage to do my master's will. 00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:24.000 Last Sunday. 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:26.000 Covenant Sunday. 00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:33.000 When we accepted and took on board the strictures that the covenant places upon us. 00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:37.000 To live for Christ and not for ourselves. 00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:42.000 Lead us not into temptation. 00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:43.000 No. 00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:45.000 Do not put us to the test. 00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:48.000 We are called to resist temptation. 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:52.000 To live holy lives that espouse the love of God. 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:54.000 And point others to Christ. 00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:56.000 That great shepherd of the sheep. 00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:58.000 Who gave his life. 00:18:58.000 --> 00:18:59.000 For us. 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:01.000 And for them. 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:06.000 Our final hymn which we'll be singing in a minute. 00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:09.000 Is written in the first person singular. 00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:12.000 It's me, my, mine. 00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:14.000 Not you, they, them. 00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:17.000 And it goes like this. 00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:19.000 Guide me. 00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:23.000 We can all make this our own. 00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:27.000 Guide me, O thou great Jehovah. 00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:31.000 Pilgrim as I am through this barren land. 00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:33.000 I am weak. 00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:34.000 But. 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:36.000 Thou art mighty. 00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:39.000 Hold me with thy powerful hand. 00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:40.000 And. 00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.000 If you take that on board. 00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:45.000 Hold fast to Christ. 00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:47.000 Resist temptation. 00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:49.000 And as we heard. 00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:50.000 James. 00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:51.000 4 verse 6. 00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:53.000 Resist temptation. 00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:56.000 And the devil will flee from you. 00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:57.000 And the future. 00:19:57.000 --> 00:19:58.000 The future. 00:19:58.000 --> 00:19:59.000 The future. 00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:00.000 The future. 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:02.000 Will hold. 00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:03.000 No fear. 00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:05.000 Let us pray. 00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:06.000 Father. 00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:07.000 We are weak. 00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:08.000 But you are strong. 00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:12.000 Help us to trust. 00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:18.000 Help us to lean on that strength. 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:19.000 And to use it. 00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:21.000 In our Christian life. 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:23.000 Help us when we are tested. 00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:24.000 Not to succumb. 00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:25.000 But to let the Spirit. 00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:26.000 Hold us fast. 00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:37.000 And lead us onward into life. 00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:42.000 Accept our worship, O God. 00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:43.000 not to succumb 00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:45.839 but to let the Spirit 00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:47.799 hold us fast 00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:50.319 and lead us onward 00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:51.059 into life. 00:20:53.660 --> 00:20:55.500 Accept our worship, O God. 00:20:57.259 --> 00:20:58.440 Forgive our sins 00:20:58.440 --> 00:21:01.440 and make us your people 00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:03.259 worthy 00:21:03.259 --> 00:21:05.559 of the name of Christ. 00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:07.059 Amen. 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:13.000 Amen.
