00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.719
 Good morning. Like Andrew said, we're reading from Romans chapter 1 and we're reading the first 17 verses.

00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:15.660
 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,

00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:19.879
 which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures,

00:00:20.500 --> 00:00:24.839
 concerning his son, who was descended from David according to the flesh

00:00:24.839 --> 00:00:29.859
 and was declared to be the son of God in power according to the spirit of holiness

00:00:29.859 --> 00:00:34.820
 by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:41.200
 through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:48.820
 for the sake of his name among all the nations, including you who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

00:00:49.299 --> 00:00:54.120
 To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints,

00:00:54.119 --> 00:01:00.099
 grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:01:00.100 --> 00:01:08.820
 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:15.219
 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his son,

00:01:15.659 --> 00:01:19.099
 that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers,

00:01:19.099 --> 00:01:25.339
 asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.

00:01:26.059 --> 00:01:31.839
 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,

00:01:32.119 --> 00:01:37.780
 that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.

00:01:37.780 --> 00:01:44.239
 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that I have often intended to come to you,

00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:49.980
 but thus far have been prevented, in order that I may reap some harvest among you,

00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:52.340
 as well as among the rest of the Gentiles.

00:01:53.299 --> 00:01:59.460
 I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.

00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:04.760
 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:13.879
 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes,

00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.719
 to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:22.040
 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith.

00:02:22.620 --> 00:02:25.920
 As it is written, the righteous shall live by faith.

00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:39.079
 For Romans, we are back to Romans again.

00:02:39.219 --> 00:02:40.120
 What a great book.

00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:49.759
 Today we are just recapping what we have talked about in the past,

00:02:50.060 --> 00:02:51.319
 just quite a few months ago.

00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:59.859
 The reading from chapter 1 to 17 just reminds us of what Romans is about.

00:02:59.860 --> 00:03:04.000
 And in the reading itself, there is already a summary of it.

00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:05.280
 There is the gospel of God.

00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:07.260
 There is Jesus Christ.

00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:08.860
 There is grace.

00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:10.000
 There is faith.

00:03:11.100 --> 00:03:12.580
 And there is righteousness.

00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:17.560
 So that is what we will be talking about today.

00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:20.540
 Before we start, let's pray first.

00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:28.520
 Almighty God, we thank you again for your mercy that is more.

00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:35.439
 That we can come before you, asking you to teach us what we need to know.

00:03:36.480 --> 00:03:38.280
 Show us how we should live.

00:03:39.020 --> 00:03:41.219
 That we might honor you with our life.

00:03:41.740 --> 00:03:42.280
 Thank you, Lord.

00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:43.600
 We pray in Jesus' name.

00:03:44.260 --> 00:03:44.520
 Amen.

00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:53.480
 In my childhood, I lived in a large wooden house,

00:03:53.660 --> 00:03:55.780
 which was built on a slope.

00:03:55.780 --> 00:04:01.539
 So we didn't take any good photograph of the house,

00:04:01.659 --> 00:04:03.159
 but that is part of it.

00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:09.420
 And it's actually a hill behind it with a big jungle in there.

00:04:09.419 --> 00:04:15.879
 And there was a large rock, very big, like a caravan,

00:04:16.039 --> 00:04:21.139
 just sitting right next to the roof that's on top of the hill.

00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:25.339
 And there were many people living in the house.

00:04:26.159 --> 00:04:30.500
 In the heyday, there were about 25 of us there.

00:04:30.500 --> 00:04:36.680
 Besides my parents' family, there's relatives who didn't have a place to live.

00:04:37.019 --> 00:04:39.399
 So they lived with us for many years.

00:04:42.540 --> 00:04:46.759
 Telling you that this house is built on the slope, on the hill,

00:04:47.379 --> 00:04:49.720
 and in that part of the world where it ran quite a lot,

00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:51.980
 especially towards the end of the year,

00:04:51.980 --> 00:04:57.700
 you would, I hope you would know that there's a danger of landslide.

00:04:58.420 --> 00:05:02.020
 And landslides did happen quite frequently in my hometown,

00:05:02.960 --> 00:05:04.900
 just not far away from us.

00:05:05.140 --> 00:05:06.720
 There was a few years,

00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:08.700
 no, one was a childhood.

00:05:08.939 --> 00:05:10.140
 There was one,

00:05:11.080 --> 00:05:14.379
 a few houses was damaged by that landslide,

00:05:14.540 --> 00:05:16.660
 and seven people died.

00:05:16.660 --> 00:05:21.180
 But we didn't,

00:05:21.660 --> 00:05:22.740
 as a child,

00:05:22.939 --> 00:05:24.240
 I never realized,

00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:25.880
 or didn't think about landslide,

00:05:25.980 --> 00:05:28.980
 although we were quite happy living in the house,

00:05:29.500 --> 00:05:30.120
 this big house,

00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.040
 and there's a hill we can climb.

00:05:33.500 --> 00:05:34.900
 So we had a happy time,

00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:36.400
 happy time there.

00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:39.780
 And I also climbed up to that big rock

00:05:39.780 --> 00:05:41.879
 and sat on top of it,

00:05:42.100 --> 00:05:44.100
 not knowing about the danger.

00:05:44.100 --> 00:05:47.260
 So the landslide did happen.

00:05:47.700 --> 00:05:49.160
 That was about 12 years ago.

00:05:49.340 --> 00:05:52.600
 That's 53 years after the house was built.

00:05:53.280 --> 00:05:58.320
 And you could see that the house is basically gone in there.

00:06:00.080 --> 00:06:01.740
 Thankfully, by that time,

00:06:02.080 --> 00:06:06.439
 most of us had moved away from the house to various places.

00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:09.420
 There were still two of my older brothers there

00:06:09.420 --> 00:06:10.500
 during that landslide.

00:06:11.540 --> 00:06:13.980
 It happened at about 4 a.m. in the morning,

00:06:14.100 --> 00:06:14.900
 in the heavy rain.

00:06:16.180 --> 00:06:17.320
 And miraculously,

00:06:17.780 --> 00:06:20.060
 they only sustained mild injury.

00:06:21.420 --> 00:06:21.800
 Not sure,

00:06:21.980 --> 00:06:23.420
 they also didn't know how to escape.

00:06:23.960 --> 00:06:26.140
 They somehow walk out in the dark,

00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:28.600
 in the rubble,

00:06:28.840 --> 00:06:29.800
 avoid everything.

00:06:31.700 --> 00:06:34.780
 But they're thankful that they escaped.

00:06:34.779 --> 00:06:35.779
 So,

00:06:35.779 --> 00:06:38.459
 for me,

00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:40.339
 ignorance was pleased

00:06:40.339 --> 00:06:44.699
 as I had a great childhood living in the house.

00:06:45.039 --> 00:06:47.539
 But if I knew that landslide could happen anytime,

00:06:48.379 --> 00:06:53.359
 then it would be a very anxious time living in the house.

00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:58.960
 Because my mom did tell me that she knew about ghost danger,

00:06:59.080 --> 00:07:00.000
 and every time it rains,

00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:02.699
 she would worry sick about this.

00:07:03.259 --> 00:07:04.340
 And it's just,

00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:06.520
 we're just thankful that we,

00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:09.780
 it did not happen during our childhood days.

00:07:09.779 --> 00:07:11.979
 And,

00:07:11.979 --> 00:07:15.059
 if it happened during our childhood days,

00:07:15.239 --> 00:07:16.699
 then ignorance was not a bliss,

00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:17.539
 obviously.

00:07:18.699 --> 00:07:18.759
 And,

00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:22.239
 so Romans 1 to 6

00:07:22.239 --> 00:07:24.799
 tells us ignorance is not bliss

00:07:24.799 --> 00:07:25.959
 for two reasons.

00:07:26.659 --> 00:07:27.639
 One is that

00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:30.559
 we are risking the danger of God's judgment.

00:07:31.619 --> 00:07:32.719
 The other one is that

00:07:32.719 --> 00:07:34.939
 we are missing the comfort of God's grace.

00:07:34.939 --> 00:07:37.139
 So,

00:07:37.699 --> 00:07:40.019
 when our days turn out as we have planned,

00:07:40.459 --> 00:07:43.120
 and we enjoy our time,

00:07:43.219 --> 00:07:44.740
 we do not think about God's judgment.

00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:46.300
 In fact,

00:07:46.620 --> 00:07:49.360
 we do not even think about God at all.

00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:51.259
 So,

00:07:51.339 --> 00:07:52.019
 these are too

00:07:52.019 --> 00:07:53.659
 dangerous.

00:07:55.699 --> 00:07:56.879
 In Romans 1,

00:07:56.980 --> 00:07:57.980
 it tells us that

00:07:57.980 --> 00:08:00.220
 there is a God,

00:08:01.500 --> 00:08:02.959
 and this God is angry

00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.860
 towards man's ungodliness.

00:08:04.939 --> 00:08:06.100
 and unrighteousness.

00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:10.060
 Ungodliness means that

00:08:10.060 --> 00:08:10.620
 we lost

00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:12.959
 the image of God.

00:08:13.100 --> 00:08:13.219
 I mean,

00:08:13.259 --> 00:08:14.000
 God created us

00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:15.259
 in his image.

00:08:15.779 --> 00:08:17.339
 And then we live in a way

00:08:17.339 --> 00:08:17.740
 that

00:08:17.740 --> 00:08:18.980
 nothing like God

00:08:18.980 --> 00:08:20.040
 in our character.

00:08:21.139 --> 00:08:22.319
 Unrighteousness means that

00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:23.879
 we live in a way

00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:25.459
 that we disregard God's rules.

00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:26.579
 We just live

00:08:26.579 --> 00:08:28.259
 whatever way we like.

00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:32.299
 The universe around us

00:08:32.299 --> 00:08:33.879
 tells us that there is a God.

00:08:34.940 --> 00:08:35.940
 Because we could see

00:08:35.940 --> 00:08:37.320
 the creation

00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:38.500
 and know that

00:08:38.500 --> 00:08:39.500
 it has to be

00:08:39.500 --> 00:08:41.060
 created by someone.

00:08:42.400 --> 00:08:43.340
 But we say that

00:08:43.340 --> 00:08:44.500
 the universe tells us

00:08:44.500 --> 00:08:45.240
 there is no God.

00:08:46.160 --> 00:08:47.120
 That it comes

00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:48.380
 by a big bang.

00:08:49.800 --> 00:08:51.400
 The presence of morality

00:08:51.400 --> 00:08:52.440
 in human society

00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:53.180
 tells us that

00:08:53.180 --> 00:08:53.820
 there is a God

00:08:53.820 --> 00:08:54.660
 who decides

00:08:54.660 --> 00:08:55.740
 what is

00:08:55.740 --> 00:08:57.220
 who decides

00:08:57.220 --> 00:08:57.840
 what is good

00:08:57.840 --> 00:08:58.840
 and what is bad.

00:08:59.840 --> 00:09:00.120
 So,

00:09:00.299 --> 00:09:01.419
 because we know

00:09:01.419 --> 00:09:03.320
 that if

00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:04.279
 something is good

00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:05.159
 and something is bad

00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:06.060
 there is that

00:09:06.060 --> 00:09:06.759
 moral standard.

00:09:07.580 --> 00:09:07.860
 And that

00:09:07.860 --> 00:09:09.320
 they have to think

00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:10.180
 who gives this

00:09:10.180 --> 00:09:10.840
 moral standard.

00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:11.919
 And then we should

00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:13.120
 consider that

00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:13.779
 there is a God

00:09:13.779 --> 00:09:14.860
 who would decide this.

00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:16.740
 But the society

00:09:16.740 --> 00:09:18.060
 will push for us

00:09:18.060 --> 00:09:18.419
 to

00:09:18.419 --> 00:09:19.180
 the freedom

00:09:19.180 --> 00:09:19.960
 for each person

00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:20.519
 to decide

00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:21.039
 what is good

00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:22.299
 and what is bad

00:09:22.299 --> 00:09:22.980
 for himself

00:09:22.980 --> 00:09:27.019
 and we think

00:09:27.019 --> 00:09:28.060
 that when the outcome

00:09:28.060 --> 00:09:28.960
 of our days

00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:30.600
 seems good to us

00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:32.340
 then this is

00:09:32.340 --> 00:09:33.019
 God's blessing.

00:09:34.259 --> 00:09:35.440
 But not knowing

00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:35.879
 that

00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:37.060
 this can be

00:09:37.060 --> 00:09:37.680
 God's judgment

00:09:37.680 --> 00:09:38.279
 as well.

00:09:38.580 --> 00:09:39.039
 That's what

00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:40.320
 chapter 1 says.

00:09:40.920 --> 00:09:41.860
 Because people

00:09:41.860 --> 00:09:42.440
 want to

00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:43.740
 ignore God

00:09:43.740 --> 00:09:48.080
 God's judgment

00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:48.940
 is to let people

00:09:48.940 --> 00:09:50.139
 do what they want.

00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:51.360
 So,

00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:52.080
 there are three things

00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:52.960
 that he mentioned there.

00:09:52.980 --> 00:09:54.320
 that he let people

00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:54.879
 worship

00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:56.779
 whatever they want

00:09:56.779 --> 00:09:57.920
 the creator beings.

00:09:58.519 --> 00:09:59.379
 In doing so

00:09:59.379 --> 00:10:00.539
 people

00:10:00.539 --> 00:10:02.080
 gradually

00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:02.580
 become

00:10:02.580 --> 00:10:03.360
 more and more

00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:04.480
 like what they worship.

00:10:04.800 --> 00:10:05.820
 We become

00:10:05.820 --> 00:10:06.920
 we will become

00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:07.960
 like what we worship.

00:10:08.340 --> 00:10:08.560
 So,

00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:09.700
 if we worship idols

00:10:09.700 --> 00:10:10.899
 we will like those idols

00:10:10.899 --> 00:10:11.320
 of

00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:12.139
 thoughts

00:10:12.139 --> 00:10:12.800
 and our character

00:10:12.800 --> 00:10:13.840
 we like those idols.

00:10:14.539 --> 00:10:14.779
 And so,

00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:15.379
 we lose

00:10:15.379 --> 00:10:17.500
 our identity

00:10:17.500 --> 00:10:18.399
 as the

00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:19.500
 image bearer

00:10:19.500 --> 00:10:19.899
 of God.

00:10:19.899 --> 00:10:22.840
 number two

00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:23.199
 is that

00:10:23.199 --> 00:10:23.439
 God

00:10:23.439 --> 00:10:23.959
 let

00:10:23.959 --> 00:10:25.159
 people

00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:26.179
 pursue

00:10:26.179 --> 00:10:26.919
 unnatural

00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:27.799
 identities.

00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:29.480
 We can now

00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:30.120
 choose our own

00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:30.559
 gender

00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:32.279
 our sexual

00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:33.120
 identities

00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:34.639
 so that it feels

00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:35.000
 good

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:36.759
 we can identify

00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:37.340
 ourselves with

00:10:37.340 --> 00:10:38.120
 anything we like.

00:10:38.980 --> 00:10:39.120
 So,

00:10:39.199 --> 00:10:39.799
 in doing so

00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:40.439
 we lose our

00:10:40.439 --> 00:10:41.240
 identity as

00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:41.959
 men and women.

00:10:42.699 --> 00:10:43.120
 So,

00:10:43.179 --> 00:10:43.559
 we lose

00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:44.340
 our honor

00:10:44.340 --> 00:10:45.399
 as God's

00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:46.259
 creator beings.

00:10:46.259 --> 00:10:48.159
 and number

00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:48.500
 three

00:10:48.500 --> 00:10:48.819
 God

00:10:48.819 --> 00:10:50.559
 lets people

00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:51.799
 satisfy the

00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:52.439
 desires of

00:10:52.439 --> 00:10:52.939
 their heart.

00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:55.399
 We become

00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:56.340
 preoccupied with

00:10:56.340 --> 00:10:57.039
 getting what

00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:57.939
 we want

00:10:57.939 --> 00:10:59.580
 and in doing

00:10:59.580 --> 00:10:59.939
 so

00:10:59.939 --> 00:11:00.939
 we will compete

00:11:00.939 --> 00:11:01.700
 with one another

00:11:01.700 --> 00:11:02.319
 because

00:11:02.319 --> 00:11:03.460
 when we

00:11:03.460 --> 00:11:04.840
 want the

00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:05.399
 same thing

00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:06.000
 and everyone

00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:06.879
 wants money

00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:08.240
 or power

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:09.100
 then

00:11:09.100 --> 00:11:10.139
 there is a

00:11:10.139 --> 00:11:10.500
 struggle

00:11:10.500 --> 00:11:11.899
 for

00:11:11.899 --> 00:11:12.960
 in the world

00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:13.960
 and there will be

00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:14.759
 conflict

00:11:14.759 --> 00:11:15.779
 between one

00:11:15.779 --> 00:11:16.199
 another

00:11:16.199 --> 00:11:18.159
 human beings

00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:19.079
 and between

00:11:19.079 --> 00:11:20.240
 countries

00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:21.620
 and

00:11:21.620 --> 00:11:22.779
 so that's

00:11:22.779 --> 00:11:23.500
 what the world

00:11:23.500 --> 00:11:24.159
 is like

00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:24.720
 at the moment

00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:25.620
 and

00:11:25.620 --> 00:11:27.220
 also we

00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:27.939
 make use of

00:11:27.939 --> 00:11:28.459
 one another

00:11:28.459 --> 00:11:29.379
 as instruments

00:11:29.379 --> 00:11:29.980
 to get what

00:11:29.980 --> 00:11:30.439
 we want

00:11:30.439 --> 00:11:32.079
 and we also

00:11:32.079 --> 00:11:32.879
 teach one another

00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:33.480
 that it's good

00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:34.279
 to have greed

00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:35.199
 and competition

00:11:35.199 --> 00:11:36.299
 so that there is

00:11:36.299 --> 00:11:36.879
 progress

00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:38.519
 in the society.

00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:39.519
 So,

00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:40.240
 in doing all

00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:40.699
 these things

00:11:40.699 --> 00:11:41.339
 we lose our

00:11:41.339 --> 00:11:41.799
 souls

00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:42.699
 we

00:11:42.699 --> 00:11:44.100
 become

00:11:44.100 --> 00:11:45.379
 dead

00:11:45.379 --> 00:11:45.759
 in our

00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:46.139
 souls

00:11:46.139 --> 00:11:50.899
 so Romans

00:11:50.899 --> 00:11:51.519
 1 and 2

00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:51.840
 also

00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:52.740
 tells us

00:11:52.740 --> 00:11:53.039
 that

00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:53.600
 ignorance

00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:54.279
 is not

00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:55.879
 an excuse

00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:58.039
 we can't

00:11:58.039 --> 00:11:58.460
 tell God

00:11:58.460 --> 00:11:58.779
 that we

00:11:58.779 --> 00:11:59.120
 didn't know

00:11:59.120 --> 00:11:59.539
 there's no

00:11:59.539 --> 00:12:00.159
 I didn't know

00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:00.939
 we didn't know

00:12:00.939 --> 00:12:01.519
 there's a God

00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:02.100
 we didn't know

00:12:02.100 --> 00:12:02.879
 there's your rules

00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:04.159
 because

00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:06.539
 the creator

00:12:06.539 --> 00:12:07.080
 universe

00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:07.539
 tells us

00:12:07.539 --> 00:12:08.639
 that there is

00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:09.179
 a creator

00:12:09.179 --> 00:12:09.820
 and our

00:12:09.820 --> 00:12:10.399
 own moral

00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:10.860
 codes

00:12:10.860 --> 00:12:11.720
 tells us

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:12.179
 there is a

00:12:12.179 --> 00:12:12.699
 lawgiver

00:12:12.699 --> 00:12:15.239
 and when

00:12:15.239 --> 00:12:15.739
 we judge

00:12:15.739 --> 00:12:16.459
 other people

00:12:16.459 --> 00:12:16.919
 for doing

00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:17.319
 the wrong

00:12:17.319 --> 00:12:17.979
 thing

00:12:17.979 --> 00:12:18.739
 we are

00:12:18.739 --> 00:12:19.199
 affirming

00:12:19.199 --> 00:12:19.939
 that there

00:12:19.939 --> 00:12:20.399
 is such a

00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:20.799
 thing as

00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:21.419
 right and

00:12:21.419 --> 00:12:21.759
 wrong

00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:24.579
 we do not

00:12:24.579 --> 00:12:24.899
 have any

00:12:24.899 --> 00:12:25.339
 excuse

00:12:25.339 --> 00:12:25.899
 because we

00:12:25.899 --> 00:12:26.620
 cannot even

00:12:26.620 --> 00:12:27.559
 live up to

00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:27.939
 what we

00:12:27.939 --> 00:12:28.319
 know is

00:12:28.319 --> 00:12:28.739
 right

00:12:28.740 --> 00:12:32.940
 and Romans

00:12:32.940 --> 00:12:33.360
 2

00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:34.680
 tells us

00:12:34.680 --> 00:12:35.220
 that even

00:12:35.220 --> 00:12:35.860
 people who

00:12:35.860 --> 00:12:36.360
 know

00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:37.759
 that there

00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:38.080
 is a

00:12:38.080 --> 00:12:38.539
 God and

00:12:38.539 --> 00:12:38.919
 who know

00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:39.259
 God's

00:12:39.259 --> 00:12:39.779
 law

00:12:39.779 --> 00:12:41.560
 are under

00:12:41.560 --> 00:12:41.840
 God's

00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:42.240
 judgment

00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:43.940
 because

00:12:43.940 --> 00:12:44.960
 as we

00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:45.379
 see the

00:12:45.379 --> 00:12:45.840
 Jews

00:12:45.840 --> 00:12:47.600
 they

00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:49.039
 claim that

00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:49.460
 they know

00:12:49.460 --> 00:12:49.820
 God

00:12:49.820 --> 00:12:50.740
 and they

00:12:50.740 --> 00:12:51.500
 claim that

00:12:51.500 --> 00:12:52.159
 they know

00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:52.539
 God's

00:12:52.539 --> 00:12:52.860
 laws

00:12:52.860 --> 00:12:53.539
 but they

00:12:53.539 --> 00:12:53.840
 could not

00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:54.299
 live up

00:12:54.299 --> 00:12:55.039
 to those

00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:56.019
 what they

00:12:56.019 --> 00:12:56.700
 know

00:12:56.700 --> 00:13:00.040
 so it

00:13:00.040 --> 00:13:01.600
 is more

00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:02.640
 liability

00:13:02.640 --> 00:13:03.379
 for those

00:13:03.379 --> 00:13:03.700
 people

00:13:03.700 --> 00:13:04.420
 for them

00:13:04.420 --> 00:13:04.960
 to know

00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:05.560
 God and

00:13:05.560 --> 00:13:06.080
 know God's

00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:06.540
 law but

00:13:06.540 --> 00:13:07.480
 yet unable

00:13:07.480 --> 00:13:07.900
 to live

00:13:07.900 --> 00:13:08.340
 up to

00:13:08.340 --> 00:13:08.580
 it

00:13:08.580 --> 00:13:13.100
 so Romans

00:13:13.100 --> 00:13:13.640
 2 tells

00:13:13.640 --> 00:13:14.620
 us that

00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:14.860
 being

00:13:14.860 --> 00:13:15.379
 religious

00:13:15.379 --> 00:13:17.500
 does not

00:13:17.500 --> 00:13:18.060
 help either

00:13:18.060 --> 00:13:18.560
 we are still

00:13:18.560 --> 00:13:19.080
 under the

00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:19.620
 judgment of

00:13:19.620 --> 00:13:19.940
 God

00:13:19.940 --> 00:13:21.020
 so the

00:13:21.020 --> 00:13:21.700
 first two

00:13:21.700 --> 00:13:23.720
 chapters of

00:13:23.720 --> 00:13:24.420
 Romans tells

00:13:24.420 --> 00:13:24.800
 us that

00:13:24.800 --> 00:13:25.360
 everyone in

00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:25.759
 the world

00:13:25.759 --> 00:13:26.939
 either it

00:13:26.939 --> 00:13:28.159
 is religious

00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:29.419
 or irreligious

00:13:29.419 --> 00:13:30.460
 is living

00:13:30.460 --> 00:13:30.960
 under the

00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:31.319
 wrath of

00:13:31.319 --> 00:13:31.580
 God

00:13:31.580 --> 00:13:32.759
 the judgment

00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:33.480
 that comes

00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:34.059
 with God's

00:13:34.059 --> 00:13:34.539
 wrath is

00:13:34.539 --> 00:13:37.460
 not only a

00:13:37.460 --> 00:13:38.340
 future event

00:13:38.340 --> 00:13:39.419
 but it's

00:13:39.419 --> 00:13:39.980
 also taking

00:13:39.980 --> 00:13:40.580
 place right

00:13:40.580 --> 00:13:41.539
 now as

00:13:41.539 --> 00:13:41.980
 God let

00:13:41.980 --> 00:13:42.519
 us do

00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:42.919
 what is

00:13:42.919 --> 00:13:43.399
 right in

00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:43.779
 our own

00:13:43.779 --> 00:13:44.179
 eyes

00:13:44.179 --> 00:13:47.779
 so therefore

00:13:47.779 --> 00:13:48.559
 ignorance of

00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:49.279
 God's judgment

00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:49.720
 is not

00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:50.139
 pleased

00:13:50.139 --> 00:13:52.779
 the other

00:13:52.779 --> 00:13:54.759
 reason why

00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:56.779
 ignorance is

00:13:56.779 --> 00:13:57.319
 not pleased

00:13:57.319 --> 00:13:57.980
 is that we

00:13:57.980 --> 00:13:58.600
 cannot afford

00:13:58.600 --> 00:13:59.139
 to ignore

00:13:59.139 --> 00:13:59.580
 God's

00:13:59.580 --> 00:14:00.199
 grace

00:14:00.199 --> 00:14:01.699
 so we

00:14:01.699 --> 00:14:02.299
 can ignore

00:14:02.299 --> 00:14:03.299
 God's

00:14:03.299 --> 00:14:03.779
 judgment

00:14:03.779 --> 00:14:05.480
 we can

00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:05.860
 you may

00:14:05.860 --> 00:14:06.439
 also ignore

00:14:06.439 --> 00:14:06.740
 God's

00:14:06.740 --> 00:14:07.159
 grace

00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:08.159
 grace

00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:11.839
 during a

00:14:11.839 --> 00:14:12.319
 recent

00:14:12.319 --> 00:14:13.139
 trip

00:14:13.139 --> 00:14:14.399
 to

00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:14.980
 Nongpen

00:14:14.980 --> 00:14:15.639
 in

00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.819
 Cambodia

00:14:16.819 --> 00:14:18.299
 I went

00:14:18.299 --> 00:14:18.980
 through blood

00:14:18.980 --> 00:14:19.740
 test results

00:14:19.740 --> 00:14:20.339
 with most

00:14:20.339 --> 00:14:20.719
 of the

00:14:20.719 --> 00:14:21.879
 staff of

00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:23.139
 Joy Christian

00:14:23.139 --> 00:14:23.559
 School

00:14:23.559 --> 00:14:25.000
 and I

00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:26.419
 requested them

00:14:26.419 --> 00:14:26.899
 to have their

00:14:26.899 --> 00:14:27.620
 vitamin D

00:14:27.620 --> 00:14:28.219
 levels

00:14:28.219 --> 00:14:28.899
 checked

00:14:28.899 --> 00:14:30.039
 so I

00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:30.939
 received 86

00:14:30.939 --> 00:14:31.799
 results

00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:32.120
 which I

00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:32.600
 plotted on

00:14:32.600 --> 00:14:33.480
 the graph

00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.340
 so in

00:14:35.340 --> 00:14:36.120
 Cambodia

00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:36.879
 the minimum

00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:37.300
 accepted

00:14:37.300 --> 00:14:38.039
 level of

00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:38.759
 vitamin D

00:14:38.759 --> 00:14:39.779
 from blood

00:14:39.779 --> 00:14:40.220
 test is

00:14:40.220 --> 00:14:42.340
 30 nanogram

00:14:42.340 --> 00:14:43.080
 per mini

00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:43.700
 litre

00:14:43.700 --> 00:14:44.580
 which is

00:14:44.580 --> 00:14:44.899
 the same

00:14:44.899 --> 00:14:45.440
 as Australia

00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:45.879
 which is

00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:46.320
 50

00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:46.820
 minimum

00:14:46.820 --> 00:14:47.659
 per litre

00:14:47.659 --> 00:14:47.899
 in

00:14:47.899 --> 00:14:48.220
 Australian

00:14:48.220 --> 00:14:49.279
 term

00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:51.920
 but the

00:14:51.920 --> 00:14:52.659
 ideal blood

00:14:52.659 --> 00:14:53.300
 level of

00:14:53.300 --> 00:14:54.039
 vitamin D

00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:54.779
 is generally

00:14:54.779 --> 00:14:55.240
 considered

00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:55.960
 about 40

00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:56.480
 nanogram

00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:57.820
 per litre

00:14:57.820 --> 00:14:59.159
 which is

00:14:59.159 --> 00:15:00.659
 if you

00:15:00.659 --> 00:15:01.120
 can see

00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:01.779
 the graph

00:15:01.779 --> 00:15:02.740
 so

00:15:02.740 --> 00:15:05.759
 on the

00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:07.340
 y axis

00:15:07.340 --> 00:15:08.159
 so there

00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:08.700
 is 0

00:15:08.700 --> 00:15:09.680
 and then

00:15:09.680 --> 00:15:10.000
 you've got

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:10.379
 10,

00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:10.899
 20,

00:15:11.100 --> 00:15:11.399
 30,

00:15:11.560 --> 00:15:11.919
 40

00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:13.060
 so

00:15:13.060 --> 00:15:14.200
 the mouse

00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:14.779
 is pointing

00:15:14.779 --> 00:15:15.100
 at the

00:15:15.100 --> 00:15:16.100
 40 level

00:15:16.100 --> 00:15:17.220
 that is

00:15:17.220 --> 00:15:18.639
 the ideal

00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:19.700
 level

00:15:19.700 --> 00:15:20.259
 or the

00:15:20.259 --> 00:15:21.419
 good level

00:15:21.419 --> 00:15:22.039
 of vitamin

00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:22.340
 D

00:15:22.340 --> 00:15:23.240
 so we

00:15:23.240 --> 00:15:23.620
 can see

00:15:23.620 --> 00:15:24.039
 that move

00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:25.299
 and then

00:15:25.299 --> 00:15:25.580
 in the

00:15:25.580 --> 00:15:25.899
 graph

00:15:25.899 --> 00:15:27.299
 there are

00:15:27.299 --> 00:15:29.100
 24 male

00:15:29.100 --> 00:15:29.580
 staff

00:15:29.580 --> 00:15:30.620
 at the

00:15:30.620 --> 00:15:30.919
 back of

00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:31.320
 the graph

00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:31.899
 the last

00:15:31.899 --> 00:15:32.460
 24

00:15:32.460 --> 00:15:33.280
 numbers

00:15:33.280 --> 00:15:34.120
 are male

00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:34.960
 and

00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:35.740
 the front

00:15:35.740 --> 00:15:36.960
 there are

00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:37.639
 62

00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:38.240
 are female

00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:39.800
 so

00:15:39.800 --> 00:15:40.820
 you can

00:15:40.820 --> 00:15:41.120
 see that

00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:41.519
 most of

00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:41.960
 the male

00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:42.800
 staff

00:15:42.800 --> 00:15:43.420
 actually

00:15:43.420 --> 00:15:44.420
 reach the

00:15:44.420 --> 00:15:44.660
 minimum

00:15:44.660 --> 00:15:45.180
 of 30

00:15:45.180 --> 00:15:45.720
 and many

00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:46.000
 of them

00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:46.300
 get to

00:15:46.300 --> 00:15:46.780
 40

00:15:46.780 --> 00:15:48.600
 but most

00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:48.840
 of the

00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:49.360
 females

00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:50.639
 don't even

00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:51.519
 get to

00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:51.980
 30

00:15:51.980 --> 00:15:53.400
 and

00:15:53.400 --> 00:15:54.540
 only one

00:15:54.540 --> 00:15:55.180
 got to

00:15:55.180 --> 00:15:55.700
 40

00:15:55.700 --> 00:15:57.400
 and so

00:15:57.400 --> 00:15:58.240
 there is

00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:00.080
 quite a

00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:01.600
 vitamin

00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:01.820
 D

00:16:01.820 --> 00:16:02.300
 deficiency

00:16:02.300 --> 00:16:02.660
 amount

00:16:02.660 --> 00:16:02.900
 of

00:16:02.900 --> 00:16:03.220
 the

00:16:03.220 --> 00:16:03.560
 female

00:16:03.560 --> 00:16:04.600
 staff

00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:07.480
 because

00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:07.900
 vitamin

00:16:07.900 --> 00:16:08.140
 D

00:16:08.140 --> 00:16:08.440
 deficiency

00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:08.960
 does not

00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:09.280
 cause

00:16:09.280 --> 00:16:09.620
 any

00:16:09.620 --> 00:16:10.080
 immediate

00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:10.620
 and obvious

00:16:10.620 --> 00:16:11.120
 symptoms

00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:11.879
 most

00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:12.120
 most people

00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:12.560
 are happily

00:16:12.560 --> 00:16:13.100
 ignorant

00:16:13.100 --> 00:16:13.639
 of this

00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:14.419
 deficiency

00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:16.419
 in

00:16:16.419 --> 00:16:16.899
 adults

00:16:16.899 --> 00:16:17.580
 persistent

00:16:17.580 --> 00:16:18.179
 vitamin D

00:16:18.179 --> 00:16:18.720
 deficiency

00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:19.320
 eventually

00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:19.840
 causes

00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:20.820
 osteoporosis

00:16:20.820 --> 00:16:21.840
 and in

00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:22.360
 infants

00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:23.539
 it

00:16:23.539 --> 00:16:23.940
 causes

00:16:23.940 --> 00:16:25.580
 malformation

00:16:25.580 --> 00:16:26.340
 of bones

00:16:26.340 --> 00:16:28.120
 but

00:16:28.120 --> 00:16:28.720
 vitamin D

00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:29.220
 deficiency

00:16:29.220 --> 00:16:29.600
 is also

00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:30.159
 known to

00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:30.480
 be

00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:30.899
 associated

00:16:30.899 --> 00:16:31.220
 with

00:16:31.220 --> 00:16:31.820
 depression

00:16:31.820 --> 00:16:33.019
 diabetes

00:16:33.019 --> 00:16:33.759
 heart

00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:34.100
 disease

00:16:34.100 --> 00:16:34.840
 and some

00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:35.340
 cancers

00:16:35.340 --> 00:16:37.259
 and so

00:16:37.259 --> 00:16:37.759
 we consider

00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:38.120
 what

00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:38.860
 causes

00:16:38.860 --> 00:16:39.100
 this

00:16:39.100 --> 00:16:39.560
 difference

00:16:39.560 --> 00:16:39.800
 in

00:16:39.800 --> 00:16:40.160
 vitamin

00:16:40.160 --> 00:16:40.399
 D

00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:40.700
 level

00:16:40.700 --> 00:16:41.100
 between

00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:41.360
 male

00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:41.500
 and

00:16:41.500 --> 00:16:41.759
 female

00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:42.160
 staff

00:16:42.160 --> 00:16:44.019
 I

00:16:44.019 --> 00:16:44.240
 think

00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:44.620
 it is

00:16:44.620 --> 00:16:45.060
 mainly

00:16:45.060 --> 00:16:45.480
 because

00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:45.899
 female

00:16:45.899 --> 00:16:46.280
 staff

00:16:46.280 --> 00:16:46.660
 wear

00:16:46.660 --> 00:16:47.259
 clothes

00:16:47.259 --> 00:16:47.480
 with

00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:47.860
 long

00:16:47.860 --> 00:16:48.460
 sleeves

00:16:48.460 --> 00:16:49.399
 and

00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:49.580
 why

00:16:49.580 --> 00:16:49.720
 do

00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:49.840
 they

00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:50.139
 wear

00:16:50.139 --> 00:16:50.379
 long

00:16:50.379 --> 00:16:50.680
 sleeves

00:16:50.680 --> 00:16:51.480
 because

00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:52.120
 the

00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:52.920
 school

00:16:52.920 --> 00:16:53.379
 is

00:16:53.379 --> 00:16:53.759
 air

00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:54.180
 conditioner

00:16:54.180 --> 00:16:54.840
 and

00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:54.940
 it's

00:16:54.940 --> 00:16:55.259
 cold

00:16:55.259 --> 00:16:55.700
 so

00:16:55.700 --> 00:16:56.500
 they

00:16:56.500 --> 00:16:57.519
 wear

00:16:57.519 --> 00:16:57.759
 long

00:16:57.759 --> 00:16:57.960
 sleeves

00:16:57.960 --> 00:16:58.780
 the other

00:16:58.780 --> 00:16:58.940
 thing

00:16:58.940 --> 00:16:59.080
 is

00:16:59.080 --> 00:16:59.320
 they

00:16:59.320 --> 00:16:59.480
 don't

00:16:59.480 --> 00:16:59.600
 want

00:16:59.600 --> 00:16:59.720
 to

00:16:59.720 --> 00:16:59.980
 get

00:16:59.980 --> 00:17:00.820
 sun

00:17:00.820 --> 00:17:01.060
 burn

00:17:01.060 --> 00:17:02.200
 because

00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:03.080
 their

00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:03.320
 skins

00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:03.519
 are

00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:03.740
 already

00:17:03.740 --> 00:17:04.100
 dark

00:17:04.100 --> 00:17:04.900
 so

00:17:04.900 --> 00:17:05.360
 they

00:17:05.360 --> 00:17:05.620
 don't

00:17:05.620 --> 00:17:05.759
 want

00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:05.880
 to

00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:06.040
 get

00:17:06.040 --> 00:17:06.160
 their

00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:06.360
 skin

00:17:06.360 --> 00:17:06.560
 any

00:17:06.560 --> 00:17:07.660
 darker

00:17:07.660 --> 00:17:08.100
 so

00:17:08.100 --> 00:17:08.259
 they

00:17:08.259 --> 00:17:08.480
 cover

00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:08.700
 their

00:17:08.700 --> 00:17:09.000
 skin

00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:11.220
 and

00:17:11.220 --> 00:17:12.180
 unfortunately

00:17:12.180 --> 00:17:12.500
 because

00:17:12.500 --> 00:17:12.700
 their

00:17:12.700 --> 00:17:13.080
 skins

00:17:13.080 --> 00:17:14.580
 are

00:17:14.580 --> 00:17:14.980
 darker

00:17:14.980 --> 00:17:15.360
 they

00:17:15.360 --> 00:17:15.560
 need

00:17:15.560 --> 00:17:15.840
 actually

00:17:15.840 --> 00:17:16.100
 more

00:17:16.100 --> 00:17:16.440
 sunlight

00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:16.720
 to

00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:16.920
 get

00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:17.259
 vitamin

00:17:17.259 --> 00:17:17.600
 D

00:17:17.600 --> 00:17:18.340
 unlike

00:17:18.340 --> 00:17:18.560
 the

00:17:18.560 --> 00:17:18.980
 Australian

00:17:18.980 --> 00:17:20.360
 skin

00:17:20.360 --> 00:17:21.620
 and

00:17:21.620 --> 00:17:22.080
 so

00:17:22.080 --> 00:17:23.120
 year

00:17:23.120 --> 00:17:23.620
 after

00:17:23.620 --> 00:17:23.880
 year

00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:24.180
 doing

00:17:24.180 --> 00:17:24.540
 that

00:17:24.540 --> 00:17:24.860
 they

00:17:24.860 --> 00:17:26.140
 don't

00:17:26.140 --> 00:17:26.280
 have

00:17:26.280 --> 00:17:26.740
 enough

00:17:26.740 --> 00:17:27.500
 sunlight

00:17:27.500 --> 00:17:28.340
 and

00:17:28.340 --> 00:17:28.560
 so

00:17:28.560 --> 00:17:28.820
 they

00:17:28.820 --> 00:17:29.420
 become

00:17:29.420 --> 00:17:29.920
 deficient

00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:30.680
 in

00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:31.280
 vitamin

00:17:31.280 --> 00:17:31.640
 D

00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:32.360
 and

00:17:32.360 --> 00:17:32.500
 there

00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:32.620
 is

00:17:32.620 --> 00:17:32.920
 plenty

00:17:32.920 --> 00:17:33.080
 of

00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:33.380
 sunlight

00:17:33.380 --> 00:17:33.660
 in

00:17:33.660 --> 00:17:34.120
 Cambodia

00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:36.179
 but

00:17:36.179 --> 00:17:36.439
 many

00:17:36.439 --> 00:17:36.739
 people

00:17:36.739 --> 00:17:36.959
 are

00:17:36.959 --> 00:17:37.319
 ignoring

00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:37.579
 the

00:17:37.579 --> 00:17:37.759
 need

00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:37.919
 of

00:17:37.919 --> 00:17:38.259
 sunlight

00:17:38.259 --> 00:17:38.559
 to

00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:38.799
 keep

00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:39.000
 their

00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:39.359
 bodies

00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:39.959
 healthy

00:17:39.959 --> 00:17:41.879
 I

00:17:41.879 --> 00:17:42.219
 understand

00:17:42.219 --> 00:17:42.479
 in

00:17:42.479 --> 00:17:42.919
 Australia

00:17:42.919 --> 00:17:43.339
 we

00:17:43.339 --> 00:17:43.879
 are

00:17:43.879 --> 00:17:44.159
 afraid

00:17:44.159 --> 00:17:44.379
 of

00:17:44.379 --> 00:17:44.559
 too

00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:44.839
 much

00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:45.559
 sunlight

00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:46.959
 because

00:17:46.959 --> 00:17:47.139
 of

00:17:47.139 --> 00:17:47.539
 different

00:17:47.539 --> 00:17:48.099
 skin

00:17:48.099 --> 00:17:48.579
 color

00:17:48.579 --> 00:17:49.139
 that is

00:17:49.139 --> 00:17:49.359
 one

00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:49.599
 thing

00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:51.419
 but

00:17:51.419 --> 00:17:51.879
 still

00:17:51.879 --> 00:17:52.299
 we

00:17:52.299 --> 00:17:52.479
 all

00:17:52.479 --> 00:17:52.699
 need

00:17:52.699 --> 00:17:53.079
 some

00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:53.479
 skin

00:17:53.479 --> 00:17:54.719
 some

00:17:54.719 --> 00:17:55.299
 sunlight

00:17:55.299 --> 00:17:55.759
 on

00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:55.939
 our

00:17:55.939 --> 00:17:56.359
 skins

00:17:56.359 --> 00:17:59.459
 also

00:17:59.459 --> 00:18:00.099
 by

00:18:00.099 --> 00:18:00.179
 the

00:18:00.179 --> 00:18:00.419
 way

00:18:00.419 --> 00:18:01.059
 you

00:18:01.059 --> 00:18:01.279
 may

00:18:01.279 --> 00:18:01.579
 worry

00:18:01.579 --> 00:18:01.799
 that

00:18:01.799 --> 00:18:01.919
 if

00:18:01.919 --> 00:18:02.019
 you

00:18:02.019 --> 00:18:02.199
 take

00:18:02.199 --> 00:18:02.339
 too

00:18:02.339 --> 00:18:02.500
 much

00:18:02.500 --> 00:18:02.799
 sunlight

00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:03.039
 your

00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:03.859
 body

00:18:03.859 --> 00:18:04.039
 may

00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:04.219
 have

00:18:04.219 --> 00:18:04.859
 overdose

00:18:04.859 --> 00:18:05.079
 of

00:18:05.079 --> 00:18:05.379
 vitamin

00:18:05.379 --> 00:18:05.719
 D

00:18:05.719 --> 00:18:06.519
 it

00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:06.799
 doesn't

00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:07.099
 happen

00:18:07.099 --> 00:18:07.439
 because

00:18:07.439 --> 00:18:07.659
 there's

00:18:07.659 --> 00:18:08.159
 automatic

00:18:08.159 --> 00:18:08.819
 shut off

00:18:08.819 --> 00:18:09.339
 when the

00:18:09.339 --> 00:18:09.539
 body

00:18:09.539 --> 00:18:09.879
 sense

00:18:09.879 --> 00:18:10.219
 that there's

00:18:10.219 --> 00:18:10.500
 enough

00:18:10.500 --> 00:18:10.799
 vitamin

00:18:10.799 --> 00:18:11.059
 D

00:18:11.059 --> 00:18:11.259
 it

00:18:11.259 --> 00:18:11.399
 will

00:18:11.399 --> 00:18:11.559
 not

00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:11.740
 make

00:18:11.740 --> 00:18:11.939
 any

00:18:11.939 --> 00:18:12.179
 more

00:18:12.180 --> 00:18:12.840
 and

00:18:12.840 --> 00:18:13.200
 that's

00:18:13.200 --> 00:18:13.940
 the

00:18:13.940 --> 00:18:14.759
 amazing

00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:15.019
 thing

00:18:15.019 --> 00:18:15.400
 about

00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:15.880
 God's

00:18:15.880 --> 00:18:16.340
 creation

00:18:16.340 --> 00:18:17.880
 so

00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:18.480
 I

00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:19.160
 advise

00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:19.500
 them

00:18:19.500 --> 00:18:19.799
 the

00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:20.220
 female

00:18:20.220 --> 00:18:20.799
 stuff

00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:21.880
 to get

00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:22.360
 about

00:18:22.360 --> 00:18:22.680
 20

00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:23.019
 minutes

00:18:23.019 --> 00:18:23.220
 of

00:18:23.220 --> 00:18:23.580
 sunlight

00:18:23.580 --> 00:18:23.820
 on

00:18:23.820 --> 00:18:23.960
 their

00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:24.240
 arms

00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:24.560
 that's

00:18:24.560 --> 00:18:24.779
 all

00:18:24.779 --> 00:18:25.080
 they

00:18:25.080 --> 00:18:25.400
 need

00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:26.380
 but

00:18:26.380 --> 00:18:26.900
 they

00:18:26.900 --> 00:18:27.060
 are

00:18:27.060 --> 00:18:27.360
 still

00:18:27.360 --> 00:18:27.660
 not

00:18:27.660 --> 00:18:27.920
 willing

00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:28.220
 to

00:18:28.220 --> 00:18:28.840
 do

00:18:28.840 --> 00:18:29.160
 that

00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:29.840
 they

00:18:29.840 --> 00:18:30.100
 would

00:18:30.100 --> 00:18:30.420
 rather

00:18:30.420 --> 00:18:30.799
 spend

00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:31.000
 their

00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:31.240
 money

00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:31.500
 to

00:18:31.500 --> 00:18:32.180
 buy

00:18:32.180 --> 00:18:32.759
 vitamin

00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:33.000
 D

00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:33.400
 supplement

00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:33.799
 but

00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.220
 at least

00:18:36.220 --> 00:18:37.980
 hopefully

00:18:37.980 --> 00:18:39.180
 this

00:18:39.180 --> 00:18:39.360
 will

00:18:39.360 --> 00:18:39.799
 prevent

00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:40.080
 many

00:18:40.080 --> 00:18:40.240
 of

00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:40.360
 them

00:18:40.360 --> 00:18:40.700
 getting

00:18:40.700 --> 00:18:41.519
 osteoporosis

00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:41.840
 in

00:18:41.840 --> 00:18:42.060
 their

00:18:42.059 --> 00:18:42.960
 older

00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:43.399
 age

00:18:43.399 --> 00:18:46.139
 so

00:18:46.139 --> 00:18:46.339
 in

00:18:46.339 --> 00:18:46.639
 some

00:18:46.639 --> 00:18:47.000
 ways

00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:47.960
 God's

00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:48.440
 grace

00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:49.399
 is like

00:18:49.399 --> 00:18:50.059
 sunlight

00:18:50.059 --> 00:18:51.019
 we're

00:18:51.019 --> 00:18:51.419
 ignoring

00:18:51.419 --> 00:18:51.980
 our

00:18:51.980 --> 00:18:52.240
 need

00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:52.440
 of

00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:52.700
 this

00:18:52.700 --> 00:18:53.799
 grace

00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:54.319
 we

00:18:54.319 --> 00:18:54.500
 think

00:18:54.500 --> 00:18:54.700
 that

00:18:54.700 --> 00:18:54.940
 we

00:18:54.940 --> 00:18:55.220
 are

00:18:55.220 --> 00:18:55.480
 doing

00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:55.759
 just

00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:56.139
 fine

00:18:56.139 --> 00:18:56.480
 without

00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:57.319
 any

00:18:57.319 --> 00:18:57.799
 sunlight

00:18:57.799 --> 00:18:59.299
 or

00:18:59.299 --> 00:18:59.480
 that

00:18:59.480 --> 00:18:59.659
 we

00:18:59.659 --> 00:18:59.879
 can

00:18:59.879 --> 00:19:00.240
 somehow

00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:00.500
 earn

00:19:00.500 --> 00:19:00.819
 God's

00:19:00.819 --> 00:19:01.159
 grace

00:19:01.159 --> 00:19:01.440
 by

00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:01.599
 our

00:19:01.599 --> 00:19:01.879
 own

00:19:01.879 --> 00:19:02.440
 efforts

00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:05.740
 what

00:19:05.740 --> 00:19:06.279
 difference

00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:06.579
 does

00:19:06.579 --> 00:19:06.879
 God's

00:19:06.879 --> 00:19:07.099
 grace

00:19:07.099 --> 00:19:07.440
 make

00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:08.039
 in

00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:08.240
 our

00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:08.619
 life

00:19:08.619 --> 00:19:09.200
 how

00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:09.419
 do

00:19:09.419 --> 00:19:09.579
 we

00:19:09.579 --> 00:19:09.919
 know

00:19:09.919 --> 00:19:10.319
 that

00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:10.500
 we

00:19:10.500 --> 00:19:11.139
 live

00:19:11.139 --> 00:19:11.419
 under

00:19:11.420 --> 00:19:11.900
 God's

00:19:11.900 --> 00:19:12.519
 grace

00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:13.400
 and

00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:13.680
 for

00:19:13.680 --> 00:19:13.960
 this

00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:14.539
 answer

00:19:14.539 --> 00:19:14.860
 we'll

00:19:14.860 --> 00:19:15.100
 jump

00:19:15.100 --> 00:19:15.320
 to

00:19:15.320 --> 00:19:15.720
 Romans

00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:16.420
 5

00:19:16.420 --> 00:19:17.279
 so

00:19:17.279 --> 00:19:17.580
 there's

00:19:17.580 --> 00:19:17.980
 Romans

00:19:17.980 --> 00:19:18.480
 5

00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:19.920
 the

00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:20.300
 difference

00:19:20.300 --> 00:19:20.860
 is that

00:19:20.860 --> 00:19:22.100
 we will

00:19:22.100 --> 00:19:22.259
 have

00:19:22.259 --> 00:19:22.680
 joy

00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:24.360
 we will

00:19:24.360 --> 00:19:24.820
 rejoice

00:19:24.820 --> 00:19:25.480
 people have

00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:25.900
 God's

00:19:25.900 --> 00:19:26.180
 grace

00:19:26.180 --> 00:19:28.360
 love

00:19:28.360 --> 00:19:28.860
 they will

00:19:28.860 --> 00:19:29.340
 rejoice

00:19:29.340 --> 00:19:29.580
 in

00:19:29.580 --> 00:19:31.620
 hope

00:19:31.620 --> 00:19:32.140
 in

00:19:32.140 --> 00:19:32.840
 hope

00:19:32.840 --> 00:19:34.220
 in

00:19:34.220 --> 00:19:34.860
 Romans

00:19:34.860 --> 00:19:35.140
 5

00:19:35.140 --> 00:19:36.740
 they will

00:19:36.740 --> 00:19:36.759
 rejoice in the hope of the glory of God

00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:43.539
 people who live under God's grace

00:19:43.539 --> 00:19:46.920
 they know that they have sinned and lost any hope of being like God

00:19:46.920 --> 00:19:51.240
 they have fallen short of the glory of God

00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:53.400
 but now that they have been forgiven by God

00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:58.840
 God is restoring this glory and honor and immortality to them

00:19:58.840 --> 00:20:01.360
 so because their hope is

00:20:01.360 --> 00:20:07.279
 is that God is restoring this glory and honor and immortality

00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:12.920
 so they will not be discouraged by the failures or weaknesses or suffering they face

00:20:12.920 --> 00:20:13.559
 each day

00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:16.960
 this hope keeps them going

00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:22.259
 and they also know that this hope is not dependent on what they do

00:20:22.259 --> 00:20:23.900
 it is

00:20:23.900 --> 00:20:24.960
 God given

00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:25.799
 so this

00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:27.680
 the second thing they rejoice

00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:29.220
 is in suffering

00:20:29.220 --> 00:20:33.759
 why do they rejoice in suffering?

00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:34.960
 because

00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:37.099
 people who live under the grace of God

00:20:37.099 --> 00:20:38.740
 they are not surprised by suffering

00:20:38.740 --> 00:20:41.660
 they are actually surprised that they don't suffer

00:20:41.660 --> 00:20:43.299
 because they know

00:20:43.299 --> 00:20:44.339
 that

00:20:44.339 --> 00:20:46.460
 they know two things

00:20:46.460 --> 00:20:47.220
 one is that

00:20:47.220 --> 00:20:50.400
 they are not perfect

00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:52.800
 they know that they are silly

00:20:52.800 --> 00:20:53.940
 they know that

00:20:53.940 --> 00:20:54.780
 they are foolish

00:20:54.780 --> 00:20:55.940
 and they know that

00:20:55.940 --> 00:20:56.620
 life

00:20:56.620 --> 00:20:58.720
 there will be lots of failures

00:20:58.720 --> 00:20:59.300
 and suffering

00:20:59.300 --> 00:21:00.220
 so this is one thing

00:21:00.220 --> 00:21:01.440
 they are not surprised

00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:02.560
 by their failure

00:21:02.560 --> 00:21:03.600
 second thing also

00:21:03.600 --> 00:21:04.360
 they know that

00:21:04.360 --> 00:21:05.840
 their life is different

00:21:05.840 --> 00:21:06.680
 to the life

00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:08.080
 people live in this world

00:21:08.080 --> 00:21:09.500
 and so

00:21:09.500 --> 00:21:10.360
 they will not

00:21:10.360 --> 00:21:11.880
 be able to mix well

00:21:11.880 --> 00:21:13.140
 with people in this world

00:21:13.140 --> 00:21:13.600
 and that

00:21:13.600 --> 00:21:14.060
 in that way

00:21:14.060 --> 00:21:14.640
 they will suffer

00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:16.960
 that is grace

00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:17.240
 that

00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:18.060
 that changed

00:21:18.060 --> 00:21:19.140
 their outlook

00:21:19.140 --> 00:21:20.940
 and they also know

00:21:20.940 --> 00:21:22.160
 that Jesus also suffered

00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:22.920
 in this world

00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:25.240
 and also

00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:25.920
 they know that

00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:27.320
 God is making them more like Jesus

00:21:27.320 --> 00:21:28.160
 through suffering

00:21:28.160 --> 00:21:29.200
 and so

00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:30.540
 they rejoice in suffering

00:21:30.540 --> 00:21:32.020
 the third thing

00:21:32.020 --> 00:21:32.600
 is that

00:21:32.600 --> 00:21:33.759
 they will rejoice in God

00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:36.460
 because they

00:21:36.460 --> 00:21:37.700
 start to understand

00:21:37.700 --> 00:21:38.400
 God's love

00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:39.100
 this love

00:21:39.100 --> 00:21:40.020
 has been poured

00:21:40.020 --> 00:21:40.640
 into the heart

00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:41.560
 by the Holy Spirit

00:21:41.560 --> 00:21:42.759
 and also through

00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:43.360
 revelation

00:21:43.360 --> 00:21:44.160
 in God's word

00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:44.980
 and

00:21:44.980 --> 00:21:45.700
 this love

00:21:45.700 --> 00:21:46.220
 keeps them

00:21:46.220 --> 00:21:47.200
 going

00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:49.160
 and also

00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:50.319
 they are no longer

00:21:50.319 --> 00:21:52.160
 just rejoicing

00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:53.220
 in their achievements

00:21:53.220 --> 00:21:54.600
 they rejoice in God

00:21:54.600 --> 00:21:55.019
 that means

00:21:55.019 --> 00:21:56.200
 they rejoice in

00:21:56.200 --> 00:21:57.319
 God's name being honoured

00:21:57.319 --> 00:21:58.220
 they rejoice

00:21:58.220 --> 00:22:00.900
 seeing God's kingdom come

00:22:00.900 --> 00:22:02.519
 and God's will being done

00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:03.580
 and this is

00:22:03.580 --> 00:22:04.559
 that's what

00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:05.620
 keeps them going

00:22:05.620 --> 00:22:06.960
 and these are the

00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:07.819
 people who live

00:22:07.819 --> 00:22:08.640
 under

00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:10.600
 the grace of God

00:22:10.600 --> 00:22:13.000
 so most of us

00:22:13.000 --> 00:22:13.960
 have joy deficiency

00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:16.120
 but we are not aware

00:22:16.120 --> 00:22:16.519
 of it

00:22:16.519 --> 00:22:19.000
 and it is easy

00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:19.859
 to check the level

00:22:19.859 --> 00:22:20.960
 of joy in our hearts

00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:22.180
 we can just

00:22:22.180 --> 00:22:23.740
 think for a moment

00:22:23.740 --> 00:22:24.859
 from the time

00:22:24.859 --> 00:22:25.480
 we wake up

00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:25.779
 this

00:22:25.779 --> 00:22:26.819
 we woke up

00:22:26.819 --> 00:22:27.279
 this morning

00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:27.940
 until now

00:22:27.940 --> 00:22:29.839
 how much our hearts

00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:30.819
 has been occupied

00:22:30.819 --> 00:22:31.599
 by worries

00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:32.460
 sadness

00:22:32.460 --> 00:22:34.160
 and disappointments

00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:35.119
 and

00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:36.339
 that happens

00:22:36.339 --> 00:22:37.799
 to all of us

00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:38.639
 every day

00:22:38.639 --> 00:22:40.720
 we do not have

00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:41.319
 much joy

00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:41.879
 in our heart

00:22:41.879 --> 00:22:42.660
 because we seek

00:22:42.660 --> 00:22:43.400
 satisfaction

00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:45.059
 in minor things

00:22:45.059 --> 00:22:46.079
 we rejoice

00:22:46.079 --> 00:22:46.960
 in our achievements

00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:48.359
 and our plans

00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:49.200
 being fulfilled

00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:50.679
 in our

00:22:50.679 --> 00:22:51.599
 entertainment

00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:53.359
 because

00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:54.659
 life does not

00:22:54.659 --> 00:22:55.379
 usually turn up

00:22:55.379 --> 00:22:56.259
 as it expects

00:22:56.259 --> 00:22:56.859
 it to be

00:22:56.859 --> 00:22:57.879
 and because

00:22:57.879 --> 00:22:58.899
 even when our plans

00:22:58.899 --> 00:22:59.460
 come true

00:22:59.460 --> 00:23:00.659
 we are not satisfied

00:23:00.659 --> 00:23:01.940
 and therefore

00:23:01.940 --> 00:23:02.740
 there is little joy

00:23:02.740 --> 00:23:03.379
 in our hearts

00:23:03.380 --> 00:23:05.340
 people who are

00:23:05.340 --> 00:23:05.720
 satisfied

00:23:05.720 --> 00:23:07.120
 in God's grace

00:23:07.120 --> 00:23:09.300
 and by God's grace

00:23:09.300 --> 00:23:10.080
 can rejoice

00:23:10.080 --> 00:23:11.100
 in major things

00:23:11.100 --> 00:23:12.200
 so they rejoice

00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:13.840
 in things which matter

00:23:13.840 --> 00:23:15.120
 they rejoice in the hope

00:23:15.120 --> 00:23:16.400
 of the glory of God

00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:18.140
 they rejoice in suffering

00:23:18.140 --> 00:23:19.200
 and they will rejoice

00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:20.140
 in God

00:23:20.140 --> 00:23:22.720
 and you know what

00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:24.180
 once you can rejoice

00:23:24.180 --> 00:23:25.380
 in major things

00:23:25.380 --> 00:23:26.620
 you will start

00:23:26.620 --> 00:23:27.540
 truly to rejoice

00:23:27.540 --> 00:23:28.460
 in minor things

00:23:28.460 --> 00:23:29.759
 God has given

00:23:29.759 --> 00:23:31.519
 to you to enjoy

00:23:31.519 --> 00:23:33.660
 and that is what

00:23:33.660 --> 00:23:34.440
 Ecclesiastes

00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:35.559
 is talking about

00:23:35.559 --> 00:23:36.940
 Solomon's writing

00:23:36.940 --> 00:23:37.660
 that vanity

00:23:37.660 --> 00:23:39.420
 everything is vanity

00:23:39.420 --> 00:23:41.480
 he is talking about

00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:43.360
 he couldn't enjoy

00:23:43.360 --> 00:23:44.960
 everything in the world

00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:45.840
 despite his wealth

00:23:45.840 --> 00:23:46.799
 his power

00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:48.660
 just because

00:23:48.660 --> 00:23:49.900
 his satisfaction

00:23:49.900 --> 00:23:50.880
 was

00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:52.319
 in the things

00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:52.900
 of the world

00:23:52.900 --> 00:23:54.779
 and we can't find

00:23:54.779 --> 00:23:55.860
 satisfaction in there

00:23:55.860 --> 00:23:57.400
 and that is why

00:23:57.400 --> 00:23:58.279
 he got disappointed

00:23:58.279 --> 00:23:59.619
 with all that

00:23:59.619 --> 00:24:00.660
 his experience

00:24:00.660 --> 00:24:02.180
 but if we

00:24:02.180 --> 00:24:03.579
 are satisfied

00:24:03.579 --> 00:24:04.819
 in God's grace

00:24:04.819 --> 00:24:07.180
 then we can truly

00:24:07.180 --> 00:24:07.819
 be free

00:24:07.819 --> 00:24:08.879
 to enjoy

00:24:08.879 --> 00:24:10.440
 God's creation

00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:11.220
 what God has given

00:24:11.220 --> 00:24:11.819
 to us

00:24:11.819 --> 00:24:15.319
 so

00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:17.180
 for those who

00:24:17.180 --> 00:24:17.799
 do not want

00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:18.339
 to ignore

00:24:18.339 --> 00:24:20.200
 God's grace

00:24:20.200 --> 00:24:20.799
 or do not want

00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:21.319
 to ignore

00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:22.099
 God's grace

00:24:22.099 --> 00:24:23.639
 Romans 5 and 6

00:24:23.639 --> 00:24:24.480
 tell us more

00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:25.059
 about this

00:24:25.059 --> 00:24:26.379
 grace

00:24:26.380 --> 00:24:29.380
 so if we

00:24:29.380 --> 00:24:29.740
 are joy

00:24:29.740 --> 00:24:30.140
 division

00:24:30.140 --> 00:24:30.740
 we need to

00:24:30.740 --> 00:24:31.460
 know grace

00:24:31.460 --> 00:24:32.020
 and we need

00:24:32.020 --> 00:24:32.680
 to understand

00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:33.640
 what grace

00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:33.920
 is

00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:38.680
 there's at least

00:24:38.680 --> 00:24:39.380
 five things

00:24:39.380 --> 00:24:39.760
 that

00:24:39.760 --> 00:24:41.960
 Romans 5 and 6

00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:42.540
 tell us

00:24:42.540 --> 00:24:42.880
 he said

00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:44.060
 grace is when

00:24:44.060 --> 00:24:45.820
 we were weak

00:24:45.820 --> 00:24:46.400
 and wicked

00:24:46.400 --> 00:24:48.040
 Christ died for us

00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:51.579
 grace is when

00:24:51.579 --> 00:24:52.659
 we were dead

00:24:52.659 --> 00:24:53.659
 Christ gave us

00:24:53.659 --> 00:24:54.019
 life

00:24:54.019 --> 00:24:56.680
 grace is when

00:24:56.680 --> 00:24:57.720
 we were enslaved

00:24:57.720 --> 00:24:58.279
 to sin

00:24:58.279 --> 00:24:59.779
 Christ set us

00:24:59.779 --> 00:25:00.059
 free

00:25:00.059 --> 00:25:02.599
 grace is when

00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:03.460
 we were lovers

00:25:03.460 --> 00:25:04.039
 of sin

00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:05.039
 Christ made us

00:25:05.039 --> 00:25:05.599
 lovers of

00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:06.019
 godliness

00:25:06.019 --> 00:25:09.519
 grace is when

00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:10.480
 we ought to

00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:11.139
 receive the

00:25:11.139 --> 00:25:11.680
 wages of

00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:12.500
 sin

00:25:12.500 --> 00:25:13.980
 Christ changed

00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:15.099
 it into the

00:25:15.099 --> 00:25:16.000
 gift of eternal

00:25:16.000 --> 00:25:16.440
 life

00:25:16.440 --> 00:25:21.220
 so Romans 1

00:25:21.220 --> 00:25:21.519
 and 2

00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:22.080
 tells us the

00:25:22.080 --> 00:25:22.700
 danger we are

00:25:22.700 --> 00:25:23.380
 facing if we

00:25:23.380 --> 00:25:24.220
 ignore God's

00:25:24.220 --> 00:25:24.759
 judgment

00:25:24.759 --> 00:25:26.720
 Romans 5 and 6

00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:27.799
 the place we are

00:25:27.799 --> 00:25:28.900
 missing if we

00:25:28.900 --> 00:25:29.620
 ignore God's

00:25:29.620 --> 00:25:29.980
 grace

00:25:29.980 --> 00:25:32.779
 then we need to

00:25:32.779 --> 00:25:33.779
 consider how does

00:25:33.779 --> 00:25:34.660
 the person get to

00:25:34.660 --> 00:25:35.600
 change from living

00:25:35.600 --> 00:25:36.320
 under God's

00:25:36.320 --> 00:25:37.400
 judgment to

00:25:37.400 --> 00:25:38.200
 living under God's

00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:38.519
 grace

00:25:38.519 --> 00:25:40.140
 and that's why

00:25:40.140 --> 00:25:41.059
 Romans 3

00:25:41.059 --> 00:25:41.759
 comes in

00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:44.820
 so Romans 3

00:25:44.820 --> 00:25:46.140
 first tells us

00:25:46.140 --> 00:25:46.800
 that no one is

00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:47.680
 acceptable in

00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:48.180
 God's eye

00:25:48.180 --> 00:25:49.759
 and by

00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:51.420
 the works of

00:25:51.420 --> 00:25:52.100
 the law no

00:25:52.100 --> 00:25:52.740
 human being

00:25:52.740 --> 00:25:53.680
 will be justified

00:25:53.680 --> 00:25:55.220
 in God's

00:25:55.220 --> 00:25:56.320
 sight for all

00:25:56.320 --> 00:25:57.520
 have sinned and

00:25:57.520 --> 00:25:58.440
 fallen short of

00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:59.140
 the glory of

00:25:59.140 --> 00:25:59.500
 God

00:25:59.500 --> 00:26:03.000
 we cannot

00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:03.660
 contribute

00:26:03.660 --> 00:26:05.140
 anything to

00:26:05.140 --> 00:26:05.600
 change our

00:26:05.600 --> 00:26:06.780
 status of

00:26:06.780 --> 00:26:07.300
 living under

00:26:07.300 --> 00:26:08.100
 God's judgment

00:26:08.100 --> 00:26:10.320
 to the status

00:26:10.320 --> 00:26:11.060
 of living under

00:26:11.060 --> 00:26:11.940
 God's grace

00:26:11.940 --> 00:26:13.980
 so we can

00:26:13.980 --> 00:26:14.340
 ask the

00:26:14.340 --> 00:26:14.700
 question

00:26:14.700 --> 00:26:16.440
 can't God

00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:16.880
 simply

00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:18.059
 forgive sin

00:26:18.059 --> 00:26:18.700
 to say

00:26:18.700 --> 00:26:19.480
 it doesn't

00:26:19.480 --> 00:26:19.820
 matter

00:26:19.820 --> 00:26:24.180
 God's holiness

00:26:24.180 --> 00:26:25.279
 is like light

00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:26.160
 and our sin

00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:27.980
 is like

00:26:27.980 --> 00:26:28.539
 darkness

00:26:28.539 --> 00:26:30.720
 holiness and

00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:31.340
 sin just

00:26:31.340 --> 00:26:31.900
 cannot come

00:26:31.900 --> 00:26:32.380
 together

00:26:32.380 --> 00:26:33.440
 without the

00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:34.160
 light consuming

00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:34.700
 the darkness

00:26:34.700 --> 00:26:36.059
 so it's not a

00:26:36.059 --> 00:26:36.640
 matter of if

00:26:36.640 --> 00:26:37.120
 light will

00:26:37.120 --> 00:26:37.740
 forgive the

00:26:37.740 --> 00:26:38.160
 darkness

00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:38.660
 darkness

00:26:38.660 --> 00:26:39.900
 but light

00:26:39.900 --> 00:26:40.400
 and darkness

00:26:40.400 --> 00:26:41.360
 just don't

00:26:41.360 --> 00:26:41.720
 mix

00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:44.060
 there's one

00:26:44.060 --> 00:26:44.360
 thing

00:26:44.360 --> 00:26:45.860
 the other

00:26:45.860 --> 00:26:46.460
 thing is that

00:26:46.460 --> 00:26:47.519
 God says

00:26:47.519 --> 00:26:48.060
 that already

00:26:48.060 --> 00:26:49.240
 the wages of

00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:49.920
 sin is death

00:26:49.920 --> 00:26:50.740
 and why will

00:26:50.740 --> 00:26:51.460
 God save

00:26:51.460 --> 00:26:52.980
 he can't

00:26:52.980 --> 00:26:54.080
 change it

00:26:54.080 --> 00:26:56.820
 or we can

00:26:56.820 --> 00:26:57.140
 ask

00:26:57.140 --> 00:26:57.740
 can't God

00:26:57.740 --> 00:26:58.200
 just say

00:26:58.200 --> 00:26:58.940
 let them be

00:26:58.940 --> 00:26:59.600
 they will grow

00:26:59.600 --> 00:27:00.220
 up someday

00:27:00.220 --> 00:27:01.019
 and return to

00:27:01.019 --> 00:27:01.259
 me

00:27:01.259 --> 00:27:02.340
 so people

00:27:02.340 --> 00:27:02.880
 will change

00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:03.640
 and become

00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:04.600
 a better

00:27:04.600 --> 00:27:05.120
 person

00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:07.939
 Romans 1

00:27:07.939 --> 00:27:09.959
 tells us

00:27:09.959 --> 00:27:10.419
 that God

00:27:10.419 --> 00:27:10.959
 does let

00:27:10.959 --> 00:27:11.399
 us be

00:27:11.399 --> 00:27:12.539
 but what

00:27:12.539 --> 00:27:12.859
 will happen

00:27:12.859 --> 00:27:13.839
 when God

00:27:13.839 --> 00:27:14.419
 let us be

00:27:14.419 --> 00:27:16.539
 when God

00:27:16.539 --> 00:27:17.079
 let us do

00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:17.559
 what is good

00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:18.019
 in our own

00:27:18.019 --> 00:27:18.379
 lives

00:27:18.379 --> 00:27:19.279
 so we will

00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:19.719
 grow up

00:27:19.719 --> 00:27:20.419
 not to be

00:27:20.419 --> 00:27:21.419
 a better

00:27:21.419 --> 00:27:21.779
 person

00:27:21.779 --> 00:27:22.379
 not to be

00:27:22.379 --> 00:27:22.779
 a person

00:27:22.779 --> 00:27:23.119
 who will

00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:23.399
 be

00:27:23.399 --> 00:27:24.659
 wanting to

00:27:24.659 --> 00:27:25.139
 know God

00:27:25.139 --> 00:27:25.939
 but we will

00:27:25.939 --> 00:27:26.419
 grow up to

00:27:26.419 --> 00:27:27.079
 be better

00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:27.439
 sinners

00:27:27.439 --> 00:27:28.919
 we will

00:27:28.919 --> 00:27:29.599
 become more

00:27:29.599 --> 00:27:30.399
 enslaved by

00:27:30.399 --> 00:27:30.799
 darkness

00:27:30.799 --> 00:27:32.359
 and we will

00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:32.879
 not come to

00:27:32.879 --> 00:27:33.379
 the light

00:27:33.380 --> 00:27:37.220
 so Romans 3

00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:38.640
 goes on

00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:39.420
 to tell us

00:27:39.420 --> 00:27:39.900
 the gospel

00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:40.860
 Paul said

00:27:40.860 --> 00:27:41.720
 that he

00:27:41.720 --> 00:27:42.100
 was not

00:27:42.100 --> 00:27:42.600
 ashamed of

00:27:42.600 --> 00:27:43.060
 the gospel

00:27:43.060 --> 00:27:44.900
 why did he

00:27:44.900 --> 00:27:45.420
 say that

00:27:45.420 --> 00:27:47.040
 because the

00:27:47.040 --> 00:27:47.540
 gospel is

00:27:47.540 --> 00:27:47.800
 not

00:27:47.800 --> 00:27:49.180
 we can do

00:27:49.180 --> 00:27:49.760
 something to

00:27:49.760 --> 00:27:50.180
 change our

00:27:50.180 --> 00:27:50.540
 life

00:27:50.540 --> 00:27:51.480
 but the

00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:52.040
 gospel is

00:27:52.040 --> 00:27:52.820
 God has

00:27:52.820 --> 00:27:53.560
 done something

00:27:53.560 --> 00:27:54.340
 to change

00:27:54.340 --> 00:27:54.920
 our lives

00:27:54.920 --> 00:27:59.640
 the gospel

00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:00.140
 is that

00:28:00.140 --> 00:28:00.780
 the judgment

00:28:00.780 --> 00:28:01.240
 of death

00:28:01.240 --> 00:28:01.560
 has been

00:28:01.560 --> 00:28:02.040
 received

00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:04.220
 by Christ

00:28:04.220 --> 00:28:04.599
 Jesus

00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:05.700
 the blood

00:28:05.700 --> 00:28:06.200
 of Christ

00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:06.859
 has satisfied

00:28:06.859 --> 00:28:07.559
 God's

00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:07.960
 holy

00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:08.519
 judgment

00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:09.659
 God can

00:28:09.659 --> 00:28:10.159
 now forgive

00:28:10.159 --> 00:28:10.559
 sin

00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:11.639
 because the

00:28:11.639 --> 00:28:12.079
 debt has

00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:12.639
 been paid

00:28:12.639 --> 00:28:13.619
 God can

00:28:13.619 --> 00:28:14.339
 now justify

00:28:14.339 --> 00:28:14.940
 sinners

00:28:14.940 --> 00:28:15.579
 without

00:28:15.579 --> 00:28:16.440
 violating

00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:16.940
 his own

00:28:16.940 --> 00:28:17.519
 justice

00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:21.599
 so will

00:28:21.599 --> 00:28:23.240
 all the

00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:23.519
 sinners

00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:24.059
 be justified

00:28:24.059 --> 00:28:24.659
 by God

00:28:24.659 --> 00:28:26.180
 no only

00:28:26.180 --> 00:28:26.720
 those who

00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:27.039
 are in

00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:27.440
 Christ

00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:28.039
 Jesus

00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:28.619
 can be

00:28:28.619 --> 00:28:29.379
 justified

00:28:29.380 --> 00:28:30.880
 now who

00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:31.500
 are those

00:28:31.500 --> 00:28:31.940
 in Christ

00:28:31.940 --> 00:28:32.240
 Jesus

00:28:32.240 --> 00:28:33.160
 they are

00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:33.540
 the sinners

00:28:33.540 --> 00:28:34.220
 who die

00:28:34.220 --> 00:28:34.940
 in Christ

00:28:34.940 --> 00:28:35.720
 and live

00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:36.200
 in Christ

00:28:36.200 --> 00:28:37.180
 they have

00:28:37.180 --> 00:28:37.900
 died to

00:28:37.900 --> 00:28:38.180
 their

00:28:38.180 --> 00:28:39.320
 darkness

00:28:39.320 --> 00:28:39.820
 and live

00:28:39.820 --> 00:28:40.080
 in the

00:28:40.080 --> 00:28:40.500
 light of

00:28:40.500 --> 00:28:40.860
 Christ

00:28:40.860 --> 00:28:41.900
 they can

00:28:41.900 --> 00:28:43.120
 therefore

00:28:43.120 --> 00:28:43.720
 return to

00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:43.940
 God

00:28:43.940 --> 00:28:44.560
 because they

00:28:44.560 --> 00:28:44.840
 are

00:28:44.840 --> 00:28:45.960
 covered by

00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:46.320
 the light

00:28:46.320 --> 00:28:46.960
 of Christ

00:28:46.960 --> 00:28:48.180
 or they

00:28:48.180 --> 00:28:48.840
 are consumed

00:28:48.840 --> 00:28:49.200
 by the

00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:49.580
 light of

00:28:49.580 --> 00:28:49.940
 Christ

00:28:49.940 --> 00:28:52.620
 so the

00:28:52.620 --> 00:28:53.580
 rest of

00:28:53.580 --> 00:28:55.039
 Romans 3

00:28:55.039 --> 00:28:55.559
 tells us

00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:56.140
 how someone

00:28:56.140 --> 00:28:56.519
 can be

00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:57.019
 in Christ

00:28:57.019 --> 00:28:58.000
 it is

00:28:58.000 --> 00:28:58.500
 both the

00:28:58.500 --> 00:28:58.860
 easiest

00:28:58.860 --> 00:28:59.340
 and the

00:28:59.340 --> 00:28:59.580
 hardest

00:28:59.580 --> 00:29:00.100
 things to

00:29:00.100 --> 00:29:00.500
 be in

00:29:00.500 --> 00:29:00.860
 Christ

00:29:00.860 --> 00:29:01.720
 and the

00:29:01.720 --> 00:29:01.940
 Bible

00:29:01.940 --> 00:29:02.500
 calls it

00:29:02.500 --> 00:29:03.059
 faith

00:29:03.059 --> 00:29:05.080
 so Romans

00:29:05.080 --> 00:29:06.160
 4

00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:07.220
 tells us

00:29:07.220 --> 00:29:07.980
 that from

00:29:07.980 --> 00:29:08.340
 the very

00:29:08.340 --> 00:29:08.840
 beginning

00:29:08.840 --> 00:29:09.640
 faith has

00:29:09.640 --> 00:29:10.700
 always been

00:29:10.700 --> 00:29:11.519
 necessary

00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:12.340
 for someone

00:29:12.340 --> 00:29:13.820
 to be

00:29:13.820 --> 00:29:14.160
 acceptable

00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:14.779
 to God

00:29:14.779 --> 00:29:16.019
 Abraham

00:29:16.019 --> 00:29:16.779
 was justified

00:29:16.779 --> 00:29:17.660
 because he

00:29:17.660 --> 00:29:18.340
 believed in

00:29:18.340 --> 00:29:18.840
 what God

00:29:18.840 --> 00:29:19.120
 has

00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:20.079
 promised

00:29:20.079 --> 00:29:23.219
 and

00:29:23.219 --> 00:29:25.439
 what he

00:29:25.439 --> 00:29:25.819
 caused

00:29:25.819 --> 00:29:26.279
 Abraham

00:29:26.279 --> 00:29:26.679
 to do

00:29:26.679 --> 00:29:26.959
 so

00:29:26.959 --> 00:29:27.799
 Abraham

00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:29.159
 had to

00:29:29.159 --> 00:29:31.439
 leave his

00:29:31.439 --> 00:29:32.219
 hometown

00:29:32.219 --> 00:29:33.379
 had to

00:29:33.379 --> 00:29:35.539
 go with

00:29:35.539 --> 00:29:35.859
 God

00:29:35.859 --> 00:29:36.299
 to

00:29:36.299 --> 00:29:37.299
 unknown

00:29:37.299 --> 00:29:37.759
 place

00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:38.619
 and had

00:29:38.619 --> 00:29:39.619
 to

00:29:39.619 --> 00:29:40.759
 sort of

00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:41.699
 sacrifice

00:29:41.699 --> 00:29:42.819
 his son

00:29:42.819 --> 00:29:44.939
 just because

00:29:44.939 --> 00:29:45.839
 he believed

00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:46.959
 in the

00:29:46.959 --> 00:29:47.299
 word of

00:29:47.299 --> 00:29:47.539
 God

00:29:47.539 --> 00:29:48.199
 so

00:29:48.199 --> 00:29:48.619
 believing

00:29:48.619 --> 00:29:50.119
 in God

00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:51.399
 does

00:29:51.399 --> 00:29:52.019
 cause us

00:29:52.019 --> 00:29:52.659
 something

00:29:52.659 --> 00:29:54.639
 and that's

00:29:54.639 --> 00:29:54.919
 why

00:29:54.919 --> 00:29:55.679
 faith is

00:29:55.679 --> 00:29:56.199
 the easiest

00:29:56.199 --> 00:29:56.899
 and the

00:29:56.899 --> 00:29:57.119
 hardest

00:29:57.119 --> 00:29:57.519
 thing at

00:29:57.519 --> 00:29:57.839
 the same

00:29:57.839 --> 00:29:58.239
 time

00:29:58.239 --> 00:29:59.719
 so easy

00:29:59.719 --> 00:30:00.299
 because we

00:30:00.299 --> 00:30:01.139
 just need to

00:30:01.139 --> 00:30:01.619
 listen and

00:30:01.619 --> 00:30:01.919
 believe

00:30:01.919 --> 00:30:02.919
 hard because

00:30:02.919 --> 00:30:03.379
 we need

00:30:03.379 --> 00:30:04.039
 to die

00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:04.659
 to ourselves

00:30:04.659 --> 00:30:08.959
 so in

00:30:08.959 --> 00:30:09.479
 accepting

00:30:09.480 --> 00:30:11.259
 what God

00:30:11.259 --> 00:30:12.160
 says

00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:13.039
 we need to

00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:13.400
 believe

00:30:13.400 --> 00:30:15.420
 at least

00:30:15.420 --> 00:30:15.839
 these five

00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:16.180
 things

00:30:16.180 --> 00:30:17.380
 I'm not

00:30:17.380 --> 00:30:17.799
 righteous

00:30:17.799 --> 00:30:19.220
 I have

00:30:19.220 --> 00:30:19.599
 not done

00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:19.900
 anything

00:30:19.900 --> 00:30:20.279
 good

00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:21.620
 this first

00:30:21.620 --> 00:30:21.799
 thing

00:30:21.799 --> 00:30:22.519
 I'm living

00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:23.120
 in darkness

00:30:23.120 --> 00:30:24.240
 second thing

00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:24.740
 is Jesus

00:30:24.740 --> 00:30:25.440
 Christ is the

00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:25.940
 only one who

00:30:25.940 --> 00:30:26.559
 is righteous

00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:28.259
 and the

00:30:28.259 --> 00:30:28.640
 light

00:30:28.640 --> 00:30:30.620
 third thing

00:30:30.620 --> 00:30:31.240
 only the death

00:30:31.240 --> 00:30:31.759
 of Jesus

00:30:31.759 --> 00:30:32.360
 Christ can

00:30:32.360 --> 00:30:33.059
 redeem me

00:30:33.059 --> 00:30:34.579
 fourth thing

00:30:34.579 --> 00:30:35.559
 Jesus Christ

00:30:35.559 --> 00:30:36.359
 alone can

00:30:36.359 --> 00:30:36.720
 be my

00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:37.079
 savior

00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:37.699
 and my

00:30:37.699 --> 00:30:38.079
 lord

00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:39.480
 and

00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:39.859
 15

00:30:39.859 --> 00:30:40.439
 once I

00:30:40.439 --> 00:30:41.099
 I'm in

00:30:41.099 --> 00:30:41.519
 Christ

00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:42.000
 it's no

00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:42.559
 longer I

00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:43.139
 who live

00:30:43.139 --> 00:30:44.159
 but Christ

00:30:44.159 --> 00:30:44.639
 lives in

00:30:44.639 --> 00:30:45.000
 me

00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.799
 even though

00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:49.359
 we do not

00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:49.879
 want to live

00:30:49.879 --> 00:30:50.500
 under God's

00:30:50.500 --> 00:30:50.919
 judgment

00:30:50.919 --> 00:30:52.699
 and that we

00:30:52.699 --> 00:30:53.220
 would like to

00:30:53.220 --> 00:30:53.639
 live under

00:30:53.639 --> 00:30:54.299
 God's grace

00:30:54.299 --> 00:30:55.159
 we are too

00:30:55.159 --> 00:30:55.519
 weak

00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:56.339
 on our own

00:30:56.339 --> 00:30:56.919
 to respond

00:30:56.919 --> 00:30:57.339
 to the

00:30:57.339 --> 00:30:57.799
 gospel

00:30:57.799 --> 00:30:58.500
 by faith

00:30:58.500 --> 00:31:01.119
 we do not

00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:01.519
 want to

00:31:01.519 --> 00:31:01.879
 give our

00:31:01.879 --> 00:31:02.559
 own rights

00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:04.279
 we are

00:31:04.279 --> 00:31:04.980
 fearful to

00:31:04.980 --> 00:31:05.279
 die

00:31:05.279 --> 00:31:06.639
 to ourselves

00:31:06.639 --> 00:31:09.859
 we thank

00:31:09.859 --> 00:31:10.200
 God that

00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:10.819
 he pulls

00:31:10.819 --> 00:31:11.379
 us along

00:31:11.379 --> 00:31:12.339
 helping us

00:31:12.339 --> 00:31:13.339
 to take

00:31:13.339 --> 00:31:13.799
 our first

00:31:13.799 --> 00:31:14.159
 steps

00:31:14.159 --> 00:31:14.899
 like a

00:31:14.899 --> 00:31:15.220
 father

00:31:15.220 --> 00:31:16.399
 helping his

00:31:16.399 --> 00:31:17.099
 infant to

00:31:17.099 --> 00:31:17.419
 walk

00:31:17.419 --> 00:31:18.799
 the gospel

00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:20.359
 comes to

00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:21.099
 us from

00:31:21.099 --> 00:31:21.619
 faith

00:31:21.619 --> 00:31:22.680
 for faith

00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:24.500
 God starts

00:31:24.500 --> 00:31:24.940
 our first

00:31:24.940 --> 00:31:25.360
 steps

00:31:25.360 --> 00:31:26.279
 after we

00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:26.799
 have tasted

00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:27.539
 the goodness

00:31:27.539 --> 00:31:28.799
 of walking

00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:29.420
 in grace

00:31:29.420 --> 00:31:30.480
 we will have

00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:31.180
 more confidence

00:31:31.180 --> 00:31:31.660
 to walk

00:31:31.660 --> 00:31:32.860
 on and

00:31:32.860 --> 00:31:33.140
 on

00:31:33.140 --> 00:31:34.440
 so today

00:31:34.440 --> 00:31:35.060
 many of us

00:31:35.060 --> 00:31:35.680
 have started

00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:36.180
 this walk

00:31:36.180 --> 00:31:36.620
 of faith

00:31:36.620 --> 00:31:37.799
 we are

00:31:37.799 --> 00:31:38.200
 thankful

00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:39.019
 that God

00:31:39.019 --> 00:31:39.480
 has been

00:31:39.480 --> 00:31:40.039
 holding our

00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:40.440
 hands

00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:41.539
 we are

00:31:41.539 --> 00:31:41.799
 thankful

00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:42.320
 that we

00:31:42.320 --> 00:31:42.860
 no longer

00:31:42.860 --> 00:31:44.480
 live under

00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:44.980
 the threat

00:31:44.980 --> 00:31:45.880
 of landslides

00:31:45.880 --> 00:31:47.180
 and we are

00:31:47.180 --> 00:31:47.759
 thankful that

00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:48.160
 God has

00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:48.840
 not left

00:31:48.840 --> 00:31:49.480
 us alone

00:31:49.480 --> 00:31:50.539
 to do

00:31:50.539 --> 00:31:50.960
 what seems

00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:51.340
 right

00:31:51.340 --> 00:31:52.660
 on us

00:31:52.660 --> 00:31:53.600
 and we

00:31:53.600 --> 00:31:53.960
 are thankful

00:31:53.960 --> 00:31:54.320
 for the

00:31:54.320 --> 00:31:54.860
 joy that

00:31:54.860 --> 00:31:55.420
 is ours

00:31:55.420 --> 00:31:56.000
 under

00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:56.340
 God's

00:31:56.340 --> 00:31:56.759
 grace

00:31:56.759 --> 00:31:58.259
 and I

00:31:58.259 --> 00:31:58.700
 hope that

00:31:58.700 --> 00:31:59.560
 for those

00:31:59.560 --> 00:31:59.920
 of us

00:31:59.920 --> 00:32:00.560
 walking in

00:32:00.560 --> 00:32:00.860
 this

00:32:00.860 --> 00:32:02.560
 path of

00:32:02.560 --> 00:32:03.560
 faith

00:32:03.560 --> 00:32:04.420
 in God's

00:32:04.420 --> 00:32:04.779
 grace

00:32:04.779 --> 00:32:05.920
 we will

00:32:05.920 --> 00:32:06.340
 keep

00:32:06.340 --> 00:32:06.779
 walking

00:32:06.779 --> 00:32:09.779
 as Jesus

00:32:09.779 --> 00:32:10.240
 told his

00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:10.600
 disciples

00:32:10.600 --> 00:32:11.000
 that

00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:11.820
 greater

00:32:11.820 --> 00:32:12.180
 things

00:32:12.180 --> 00:32:12.519
 you will

00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:12.820
 do

00:32:12.820 --> 00:32:13.840
 and I

00:32:13.840 --> 00:32:14.160
 hope that

00:32:14.160 --> 00:32:14.640
 we can

00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:14.960
 all

00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:16.220
 aspire to

00:32:16.220 --> 00:32:16.440
 that

00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:16.820
 to do

00:32:16.820 --> 00:32:17.160
 greater

00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:17.560
 things

00:32:17.560 --> 00:32:19.180
 in Christ

00:32:19.180 --> 00:32:20.279
 for the

00:32:20.279 --> 00:32:20.519
 kingdom

00:32:20.519 --> 00:32:21.100
 of God

00:32:21.099 --> 00:32:23.339
 to do

00:32:23.339 --> 00:32:23.659
 something

00:32:23.659 --> 00:32:24.000
 that

00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:24.480
 has

00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:25.019
 eternal

00:32:25.019 --> 00:32:25.459
 value

00:32:25.459 --> 00:32:29.439
 for those

00:32:29.439 --> 00:32:29.779
 of us

00:32:29.779 --> 00:32:30.059
 who have

00:32:30.059 --> 00:32:30.179
 not

00:32:30.179 --> 00:32:30.439
 started

00:32:30.439 --> 00:32:30.719
 this

00:32:30.719 --> 00:32:31.039
 walk

00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:33.139
 I hope

00:32:33.139 --> 00:32:33.519
 that you

00:32:33.519 --> 00:32:34.000
 do want

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:34.339
 to live

00:32:34.339 --> 00:32:34.659
 under

00:32:34.659 --> 00:32:35.839
 the light

00:32:35.839 --> 00:32:36.079
 of

00:32:36.079 --> 00:32:37.000
 God's

00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:37.419
 grace

00:32:37.420 --> 00:32:39.140
 and if

00:32:39.140 --> 00:32:39.360
 you

00:32:39.360 --> 00:32:40.180
 want

00:32:40.180 --> 00:32:40.820
 to do

00:32:40.820 --> 00:32:41.220
 so

00:32:41.220 --> 00:32:43.820
 you

00:32:43.820 --> 00:32:44.039
 just

00:32:44.039 --> 00:32:44.340
 need to

00:32:44.340 --> 00:32:44.840
 ask God

00:32:44.840 --> 00:32:45.740
 to help

00:32:45.740 --> 00:32:46.120
 you

00:32:46.120 --> 00:32:50.180
 otherwise

00:32:50.180 --> 00:32:51.320
 we would

00:32:51.320 --> 00:32:52.120
 keep on

00:32:52.120 --> 00:32:52.660
 carrying our

00:32:52.660 --> 00:32:52.980
 burden

00:32:52.980 --> 00:32:53.580
 in life

00:32:53.580 --> 00:32:56.120
 and

00:32:56.120 --> 00:32:58.160
 at the

00:32:58.160 --> 00:32:58.460
 end

00:32:58.460 --> 00:32:59.140
 there will

00:32:59.140 --> 00:32:59.360
 be

00:32:59.360 --> 00:32:59.900
 judgment

00:32:59.900 --> 00:33:00.779
 to come

00:33:00.779 --> 00:33:02.800
 let us

00:33:02.800 --> 00:33:03.080
 pray

00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:12.919
 father we

00:33:12.919 --> 00:33:13.799
 thank you

00:33:13.799 --> 00:33:14.159
 for your

00:33:14.159 --> 00:33:14.500
 mercy

00:33:14.500 --> 00:33:15.259
 that we

00:33:15.259 --> 00:33:15.879
 can now

00:33:15.879 --> 00:33:17.799
 know that

00:33:17.799 --> 00:33:18.379
 there's no

00:33:18.379 --> 00:33:19.819
 condemnation

00:33:19.819 --> 00:33:21.379
 to those

00:33:21.379 --> 00:33:22.460
 who are

00:33:22.460 --> 00:33:23.139
 in Christ

00:33:23.139 --> 00:33:25.220
 not only

00:33:25.220 --> 00:33:25.819
 that we

00:33:25.819 --> 00:33:26.899
 also live

00:33:26.899 --> 00:33:29.559
 in your

00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:29.939
 grace

00:33:29.939 --> 00:33:31.119
 that we

00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:31.740
 can face

00:33:31.740 --> 00:33:32.240
 this day

00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:33.120
 with

00:33:33.120 --> 00:33:33.779
 confidence

00:33:33.779 --> 00:33:35.339
 with joy

00:33:35.339 --> 00:33:38.420
 and with

00:33:38.420 --> 00:33:39.400
 the ability

00:33:39.400 --> 00:33:40.000
 to

00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:42.460
 share the

00:33:42.460 --> 00:33:42.900
 concern of

00:33:42.900 --> 00:33:43.240
 others

00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:43.859
 and be

00:33:43.859 --> 00:33:44.720
 kind to

00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:45.120
 others

00:33:45.120 --> 00:33:46.819
 thank you

00:33:46.819 --> 00:33:46.960
 Lord

00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:47.799
 we also

00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:48.220
 pray for

00:33:48.220 --> 00:33:48.660
 those of

00:33:48.660 --> 00:33:49.259
 us who

00:33:49.259 --> 00:33:49.900
 are

00:33:49.900 --> 00:33:52.740
 thinking

00:33:52.740 --> 00:33:53.700
 and wanting

00:33:53.700 --> 00:33:54.700
 to

00:33:54.700 --> 00:33:55.359
 seek

00:33:55.359 --> 00:33:56.960
 the truth

00:33:56.960 --> 00:33:57.640
 may you

00:33:57.640 --> 00:33:59.140
 help them

00:33:59.140 --> 00:34:00.759
 to see

00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:02.539
 the glory

00:34:02.539 --> 00:34:02.799
 of the

00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:02.980
 Lord

00:34:02.980 --> 00:34:03.200
 Jesus

 in Jesus

 name

00:34:06.420 --> 00:34:07.619
 amen

 thank you
