00:00:00.940 --> 00:00:06.440
 Please take your Bibles and open them up to Genesis chapter 3, and this morning we're

00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:11.640
 coming to one of the most infamous chapters of the entire Bible.

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:16.120
 If you're just now joining us for the first time, we've been walking through the book

00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:19.920
 of Genesis, the first book of the Bible, and up to this point things have been great.

00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:25.120
 But now this morning what we see is this good creation that we've seen up to this point

00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:32.060
 is about to be drastically changed for the worse with the entrance of sin into the world.

00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:38.000
 So Genesis chapter 3, our passage this morning is verses 1 through 13, and when you found

00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:42.620
 that in the Bible, then let's stand in honor of the reading of God's Word, Genesis 3, 1

00:00:42.620 --> 00:00:43.159
 through 13.

00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:57.000
 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made.

00:00:57.579 --> 00:01:03.659
 He said to the woman, did God actually say, you shall not eat of any tree in the garden?

00:01:04.379 --> 00:01:09.219
 And the woman said to the serpent, we may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, but

00:01:09.219 --> 00:01:14.319
 God said, you shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden,

00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.379
 neither shall you touch it, lest you die.

00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:23.079
 But the serpent said to the woman, you will not surely die, for God knows that when you

00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:27.340
 eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.

00:01:28.180 --> 00:01:32.759
 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the

00:01:32.759 --> 00:01:37.680
 eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and

00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:42.580
 ate, and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate.

00:01:43.440 --> 00:01:48.500
 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked, and they sewed fig

00:01:48.500 --> 00:01:50.980
 leaves together and made themselves loincloths.

00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:56.540
 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the

00:01:56.540 --> 00:02:01.100
 man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:05.520
 But the Lord God called to the man and said to him, where are you?

00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:11.199
 And he said, I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked,

00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:12.539
 and I hid myself.

00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:15.519
 He said, who told you that you were naked?

00:02:16.259 --> 00:02:18.960
 Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?

00:02:19.819 --> 00:02:24.000
 The man said, the woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me the fruit of the tree,

00:02:24.060 --> 00:02:24.560
 and I ate.

00:02:25.300 --> 00:02:28.319
 Then the Lord God said to the woman, what is this that you have done?

00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:33.219
 And the woman said, the serpent deceived me, and I ate.

00:02:33.219 --> 00:02:43.960
 And Father God, as we open up your word, we pray that we would see clearly here our sin,

00:02:44.979 --> 00:02:47.520
 our separation from you.

00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:53.000
 Lord, this is the root cause of all evil in the world and all evil in us.

00:02:53.079 --> 00:02:58.000
 And so Lord, we pray that we would see it clearly and that it would drive us to Christ in faith.

00:02:58.300 --> 00:02:59.280
 We pray in Jesus' name.

00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:00.280
 Amen.

00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:00.400
 Amen.

00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:02.340
 You may be seated.

00:03:03.379 --> 00:03:10.500
 I got lunch with somebody this week who was new to the area, and because it had warmed up just a little bit,

00:03:10.580 --> 00:03:12.259
 the tiniest bit, we sat outside.

00:03:12.620 --> 00:03:19.979
 But because we live where we live, we weren't out there long before we were absolutely eaten up by no-see-ums,

00:03:20.139 --> 00:03:21.520
 and they are back with a vengeance.

00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:22.439
 I don't know if you noticed.

00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:29.659
 And as we sat there, he wondered out loud, well, why in the world are these things so bad here?

00:03:29.740 --> 00:03:33.159
 And I didn't have a scientific explanation to give him.

00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:34.159
 I'm sure there is one.

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.699
 But the only explanation I could give him was because all the way back here in Genesis chapter 3,

00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:52.479
 Adam and Eve disobeyed the word of the Lord and plunged God's perfect creation and all of us in it into something called sin.

00:03:52.479 --> 00:04:04.419
 I don't want to be overly simplistic this morning, but sin is the fundamental explanation for everything that is bad and broken in the world.

00:04:04.419 --> 00:04:15.259
 All the way from minor inconveniences and things that annoy us like no-see-ums and mosquitoes and poison ivy and things like that,

00:04:15.379 --> 00:04:21.199
 all the way to the most difficult and terrible things that face all of us in this life.

00:04:22.219 --> 00:04:26.620
 Questions like, why is my marriage so difficult?

00:04:28.219 --> 00:04:32.399
 Questions like, well, why do I feel so alone and depressed?

00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:37.079
 Questions like, well, why do we deal with things like cancer?

00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:40.819
 Why do we have to face things like death?

00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:46.819
 And of course, as we think about this on a spiritual level this morning, it's the answer to questions like,

00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:54.419
 well, why does the Bible say that each and every one of us are by nature separated from God?

00:04:55.339 --> 00:04:56.699
 Enemies of God.

00:04:57.239 --> 00:05:02.339
 And why are all of us by nature enemies and under his wrath?

00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:03.699
 Why does anybody die?

00:05:03.779 --> 00:05:06.219
 And why does anybody go to this place called hell?

00:05:07.179 --> 00:05:13.199
 All of these terribly unpopular topics that no one really wants to think about and talk about.

00:05:13.259 --> 00:05:20.719
 The most basic answer and explanation that we can give for all of these questions is found right here in Genesis chapter 3.

00:05:21.379 --> 00:05:24.319
 With the entrance of sin into the world.

00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:26.459
 So let's look here at this passage together.

00:05:26.599 --> 00:05:31.939
 And what we're going to see here this morning is the entrance and the effects of sin.

00:05:32.740 --> 00:05:34.079
 And this will be our outline this morning.

00:05:34.159 --> 00:05:36.199
 If you're taking notes, that might help you to follow along.

00:05:36.659 --> 00:05:41.379
 We'll see the entrance of sin and the effects of sin this morning.

00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:45.519
 First, we see here the entrance of sin.

00:05:45.620 --> 00:05:46.920
 Look there with me starting in verse 1.

00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:53.600
 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made.

00:05:54.420 --> 00:05:57.220
 The tone kind of shifts here in chapter 3, doesn't it?

00:05:57.480 --> 00:06:00.680
 We've had God's good, perfect paradise up to this point.

00:06:00.840 --> 00:06:05.120
 And now the presence of this crafty serpent comes onto the scene.

00:06:05.259 --> 00:06:12.060
 And I'll just go ahead and tell you that there are questions that we have that Genesis simply does not answer.

00:06:12.060 --> 00:06:17.399
 And it doesn't intend to answer questions like about the origins of evil itself.

00:06:18.139 --> 00:06:20.319
 Or questions about maybe the fall of Satan.

00:06:21.139 --> 00:06:23.420
 Genesis doesn't intend to answer these questions.

00:06:23.540 --> 00:06:25.540
 It puts us after all of that.

00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.519
 And by the time we meet this serpent in the garden, he is already wicked.

00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:33.259
 And he's already bent on twisting God's good creation.

00:06:33.420 --> 00:06:38.399
 The focus here is on humanity and how humanity first sinned.

00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:43.560
 And the effects of that sin on all of creation and on all of us.

00:06:44.539 --> 00:06:51.159
 So this crafty serpent who we know is Satan, he comes to disrupt this perfect garden paradise.

00:06:51.359 --> 00:06:55.399
 And he comes with this tried and true playbook of temptation.

00:06:55.599 --> 00:06:57.500
 And I want you to look with me starting in verse 2.

00:06:57.939 --> 00:07:02.419
 And I want you to notice four tactics that Satan uses here in the garden.

00:07:02.420 --> 00:07:09.360
 And I want you to pay attention to this because these are tactics that he still uses today on each and every one of us.

00:07:10.080 --> 00:07:12.400
 I know we're talking about the very first sin.

00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:15.939
 But unfortunately, the first sin is not the last sin, is it?

00:07:16.580 --> 00:07:19.639
 This first temptation is not the last temptation.

00:07:19.840 --> 00:07:26.460
 What we see here is a mirror-like representation of something that each and every one of us faces in our day-to-day life.

00:07:26.459 --> 00:07:32.859
 Tactic number one, Satan attacks God's good design.

00:07:34.139 --> 00:07:41.560
 We've seen over the past several weeks, haven't we, how God ordered and structured his creation in Genesis 1 and 2.

00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:43.339
 It all began with God.

00:07:44.039 --> 00:07:45.139
 He is at the top.

00:07:45.219 --> 00:07:47.039
 He's at the center of all things.

00:07:47.099 --> 00:07:48.719
 His word is ultimate.

00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:53.500
 And then God creates Adam and he gives his word to Adam.

00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.840
 And then God creates Eve to be Adam's helper.

00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:01.420
 And Adam and Eve together are called to rule over the animal kingdom.

00:08:01.620 --> 00:08:03.300
 You see that structure and that order.

00:08:04.020 --> 00:08:04.960
 But here's what happens.

00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.700
 It's all completely reversed, isn't it?

00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:10.860
 The animal comes to the person.

00:08:11.640 --> 00:08:13.740
 The serpent comes up to the woman.

00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:16.240
 The woman takes her cues from an animal.

00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:19.360
 And then Adam takes his cues from the woman.

00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:22.379
 And nobody's listening to God at all.

00:08:23.860 --> 00:08:29.139
 Satan is disrupting, upending God's good design from the very beginning.

00:08:29.300 --> 00:08:31.620
 And he absolutely loves to do this.

00:08:32.539 --> 00:08:37.740
 Anywhere you see sin present, you will see an attack on God's good design.

00:08:37.860 --> 00:08:42.480
 We saw last week how we see the effects of this in marriages.

00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:48.480
 Husbands struggle to lead and to love their wives as they were designed to do.

00:08:48.659 --> 00:08:53.000
 Wives struggle to help and submit to their husbands as they were designed to do.

00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:57.100
 Sin comes in and jumbles up and confuses the whole thing.

00:08:58.420 --> 00:09:00.139
 We see it in churches.

00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:06.620
 Women stepping into roles of teaching and authority that are reserved for biblically qualified men.

00:09:06.620 --> 00:09:09.460
 Scripture is not unclear about this.

00:09:09.539 --> 00:09:13.039
 But again, sin comes in and disrupts God's good design.

00:09:13.139 --> 00:09:15.360
 But most often, you know where we see this most clearly?

00:09:16.620 --> 00:09:21.039
 You know where we see this order and this design of God attacked most often?

00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.379
 It's in our own sinful personal rebellion against God.

00:09:26.379 --> 00:09:29.939
 And we see it in our own lives.

00:09:29.939 --> 00:09:37.519
 When you and I walk in sin, what we are doing is we're saying to God that you're not the authority here.

00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:39.059
 I am.

00:09:39.539 --> 00:09:40.600
 That's what sin is.

00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:47.799
 Sin isn't just some minor little mistake, a little slip up here and there, doing something that we shouldn't do.

00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:53.519
 R.C. Sproul, he says that sin is cosmic treason.

00:09:53.519 --> 00:10:04.439
 Every sin, no matter how seemingly insignificant, is an act of rebellion against the sovereign God who reigns and rules over us.

00:10:04.539 --> 00:10:09.519
 And as such, is an act of treason against the cosmic king.

00:10:11.100 --> 00:10:14.779
 Sin always attacks and confuses God's design.

00:10:14.860 --> 00:10:15.179
 Always.

00:10:16.259 --> 00:10:21.579
 Wherever you see that order disrupted, you can trace it all the way back right here to the garden.

00:10:21.579 --> 00:10:22.679
 Tactic number two.

00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:26.079
 He questions the word of God.

00:10:27.100 --> 00:10:30.740
 He questions the word of God.

00:10:30.819 --> 00:10:32.759
 We see that plainly enough here, I think.

00:10:32.860 --> 00:10:34.579
 But it's so interesting to me.

00:10:34.659 --> 00:10:38.799
 When you slow down and pay attention to the dialogue here in this account,

00:10:39.199 --> 00:10:46.019
 you'll begin to notice that this temptation ultimately is a battle over the word of the Lord.

00:10:46.019 --> 00:10:48.079
 Look at this, verse one.

00:10:49.620 --> 00:10:55.240
 He says, did God actually say you shall not eat of any tree in the garden?

00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:56.779
 Now stop there.

00:10:57.120 --> 00:10:57.980
 Okay, this is a test.

00:10:58.079 --> 00:10:58.679
 Everybody look up.

00:10:58.759 --> 00:10:59.259
 Eyes on me.

00:10:59.860 --> 00:11:00.759
 Don't look at the book.

00:11:01.100 --> 00:11:02.360
 Okay, I don't tell you to do that often.

00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:03.159
 Look up at me.

00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.539
 Is that what God said?

00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:10.100
 Did God actually say you may not eat of any tree?

00:11:10.319 --> 00:11:11.980
 Is that what God said?

00:11:12.019 --> 00:11:12.480
 Yes or no?

00:11:13.819 --> 00:11:16.000
 What God said, you can look back down,

00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:20.980
 was that they could eat freely of every tree in the garden.

00:11:21.659 --> 00:11:24.360
 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,

00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:25.759
 they should not eat of it.

00:11:25.820 --> 00:11:27.600
 For in the day that they eat of it,

00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:29.980
 they will surely die.

00:11:30.059 --> 00:11:31.179
 From the beginning here,

00:11:31.259 --> 00:11:34.980
 the enemy completely misrepresents the word of the Lord, doesn't he?

00:11:34.980 --> 00:11:37.860
 Now look at how Eve responds.

00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:38.960
 Which by the way, first of all,

00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:40.659
 that's mistake number one.

00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:43.100
 Because she shouldn't have responded at all.

00:11:43.680 --> 00:11:45.139
 Okay, word of wisdom to you.

00:11:45.220 --> 00:11:48.940
 If a talking serpent comes up and starts speaking to you,

00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:51.379
 you don't have to have a dialogue with it.

00:11:51.420 --> 00:11:53.039
 You just run away and pray.

00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:55.240
 And that's what Eve should have done here.

00:11:56.539 --> 00:11:58.580
 That's what we should do when we face temptation.

00:11:58.740 --> 00:12:00.259
 You know, you don't have to engage it.

00:12:01.139 --> 00:12:03.000
 You don't have to have a dialogue with it.

00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:04.960
 You don't have to enter into a conversation.

00:12:04.980 --> 00:12:07.440
 With it, you are well within your rights

00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:09.560
 to simply say no and run away.

00:12:10.980 --> 00:12:12.159
 But Eve speaks.

00:12:13.100 --> 00:12:15.920
 And to her credit, she does correct him, doesn't she?

00:12:15.980 --> 00:12:16.399
 She says,

00:12:17.019 --> 00:12:19.300
 We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden,

00:12:19.420 --> 00:12:20.759
 but now look what she says.

00:12:21.300 --> 00:12:22.379
 God said,

00:12:23.259 --> 00:12:25.700
 You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree

00:12:25.700 --> 00:12:27.120
 that is in the midst of the garden,

00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.920
 neither shall you touch it,

00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:31.200
 lest you die.

00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:31.960
 Stop there.

00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:35.259
 Is that what God said?

00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:39.400
 This is like one of those pictures in the magazine

00:12:39.400 --> 00:12:41.120
 where you have side by side

00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:42.900
 and you got to spot the differences here.

00:12:43.019 --> 00:12:43.680
 It's subtle.

00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:45.820
 Do you spot the differences?

00:12:47.420 --> 00:12:49.019
 God never said,

00:12:49.280 --> 00:12:50.160
 Don't touch the tree.

00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:53.139
 She added that herself.

00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:58.459
 She adds to the word of the Lord.

00:12:59.579 --> 00:13:00.419
 And on top of that,

00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:02.639
 this is a little bit harder to see in the English,

00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:04.459
 but what she also does is

00:13:04.459 --> 00:13:08.379
 she minimizes the consequence of disobedience.

00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:10.879
 Hebrew language does this thing

00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:13.360
 where when they want to emphasize something,

00:13:13.500 --> 00:13:15.079
 they'll sometimes say it twice.

00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.940
 And so when God gave this command,

00:13:18.060 --> 00:13:18.800
 what it says is,

00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:20.460
 In the day that you eat of it,

00:13:20.520 --> 00:13:22.639
 you shall surely die.

00:13:22.740 --> 00:13:23.759
 In the Hebrew, that is,

00:13:24.020 --> 00:13:25.420
 you will die, die.

00:13:26.540 --> 00:13:27.480
 That's serious.

00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:29.720
 You're going to die, die.

00:13:29.800 --> 00:13:30.560
 It's for emphasis.

00:13:30.780 --> 00:13:33.180
 Don't eat it or you will surely die.

00:13:33.259 --> 00:13:34.180
 But what does Eve say?

00:13:34.680 --> 00:13:35.580
 Don't eat it.

00:13:35.980 --> 00:13:36.980
 Don't touch it.

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:38.440
 Or you'll die.

00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:41.520
 She adds to his word.

00:13:41.520 --> 00:13:44.000
 She takes away from his word.

00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:46.360
 She adds to it

00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:49.179
 to make it sound more restrictive than it is.

00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:52.179
 And then she minimizes the consequence

00:13:52.179 --> 00:13:53.960
 and makes it sound less severe

00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:55.639
 and less serious than it is.

00:13:55.720 --> 00:13:58.639
 You see, this temptation is a battle

00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:00.519
 over the word of the Lord.

00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:02.019
 And she is losing.

00:14:05.019 --> 00:14:09.000
 Church, if you want to guard yourself from sin,

00:14:10.139 --> 00:14:13.500
 get yourself in the word of the Lord.

00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:18.980
 If you expect to fight against the temptation of the enemy,

00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:23.799
 you must know the word of the Lord.

00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:25.960
 So that if somebody says,

00:14:26.059 --> 00:14:28.120
 Did God really say this?

00:14:28.179 --> 00:14:29.320
 You can look at him and say,

00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:31.039
 Well, no, he didn't.

00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:33.419
 And actually feel like you know what you're talking about

00:14:33.419 --> 00:14:35.179
 because you know the word of the Lord.

00:14:35.179 --> 00:14:36.939
 Or you could say,

00:14:37.019 --> 00:14:37.939
 Well, yes, he did.

00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:39.599
 And here's where he says it.

00:14:39.699 --> 00:14:41.079
 And here's why he says it.

00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:41.979
 And here's what it means.

00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:44.859
 Because I'm so immersed in the word of the Lord

00:14:44.859 --> 00:14:48.079
 that I can't be led astray by these subtle lies.

00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:51.019
 If we would fight against temptation,

00:14:51.199 --> 00:14:53.439
 we'd better be armed with the word of God.

00:14:53.500 --> 00:14:55.139
 Not the word as we want it to be,

00:14:55.219 --> 00:14:56.719
 but the word as it is.

00:14:56.779 --> 00:14:57.419
 No additions,

00:14:57.959 --> 00:14:59.359
 no subtractions.

00:14:59.459 --> 00:15:01.679
 The enemy here questions the word of God.

00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:02.899
 But he doesn't stop there, does he?

00:15:02.959 --> 00:15:03.939
 Tactic number three.

00:15:05.479 --> 00:15:08.379
 He outright lies to your face.

00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:12.019
 Look at how Satan responds.

00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:12.559
 Verse four.

00:15:13.899 --> 00:15:16.000
 You will not surely die.

00:15:17.379 --> 00:15:19.359
 You will not die.

00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:21.099
 Die, he says.

00:15:21.099 --> 00:15:23.599
 The serpent quotes the word of God.

00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:26.339
 He knows it more accurately than Eve does.

00:15:27.299 --> 00:15:29.419
 And he denies it completely.

00:15:29.419 --> 00:15:32.719
 Surely, you will not surely die.

00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:34.079
 That's an absolute lie.

00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:37.719
 And of course, it doesn't seem like it at first.

00:15:38.719 --> 00:15:41.819
 Adam and Eve, they don't immediately die, do they?

00:15:42.139 --> 00:15:43.360
 No, not physically at least.

00:15:44.199 --> 00:15:46.339
 But we know that this death,

00:15:46.819 --> 00:15:48.579
 this consequence of the sin here

00:15:48.579 --> 00:15:51.079
 is much more than just physical death.

00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:55.459
 The apostle Paul says in Romans chapter five

00:15:55.460 --> 00:15:59.080
 that sin came into the world through one man,

00:15:59.180 --> 00:15:59.720
 that's Adam,

00:16:00.340 --> 00:16:02.900
 and death through sin.

00:16:03.400 --> 00:16:05.879
 So death spread to all men

00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:07.980
 because all sinned.

00:16:08.680 --> 00:16:10.879
 They will die physically eventually,

00:16:11.160 --> 00:16:14.620
 and we die physically because of sin.

00:16:14.800 --> 00:16:17.280
 Church, death is a terrible enemy.

00:16:19.019 --> 00:16:20.379
 The more I see it,

00:16:20.400 --> 00:16:21.660
 the closer I get to it,

00:16:21.680 --> 00:16:23.139
 the more I experience it,

00:16:23.139 --> 00:16:24.779
 the more I hate it.

00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:27.620
 Death is a terrible enemy.

00:16:27.819 --> 00:16:29.220
 The devil lies here.

00:16:29.299 --> 00:16:30.639
 They will die.

00:16:32.059 --> 00:16:33.580
 But an even bigger issue here

00:16:33.580 --> 00:16:36.899
 is that sin brings spiritual death.

00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:40.759
 Adam and Eve are about to be banished

00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:42.220
 from the presence of God.

00:16:42.319 --> 00:16:43.659
 And for the first time,

00:16:44.379 --> 00:16:47.879
 that close, intimate communion with the Lord

00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:48.740
 that they've enjoyed

00:16:48.740 --> 00:16:50.000
 and God's perfect paradise

00:16:50.000 --> 00:16:52.080
 is about to be broken.

00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:56.299
 They may be alive, technically,

00:16:56.519 --> 00:16:58.439
 but they are dead.

00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:02.039
 You know, to be physically alive,

00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:04.359
 but spiritually dead,

00:17:04.440 --> 00:17:05.980
 that's not much of a life at all, is it?

00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:08.900
 It's a mirage.

00:17:09.900 --> 00:17:10.799
 It's a lie.

00:17:11.900 --> 00:17:12.880
 To be physically alive,

00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:14.799
 but spiritually dead,

00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:16.960
 sadly, that's the natural state

00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:18.559
 of every single person

00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:20.359
 that's born of Adam.

00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:21.039
 You realize,

00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:22.740
 it is possible for you

00:17:22.740 --> 00:17:24.659
 to be physically alive,

00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:27.819
 breathing, thinking, acting,

00:17:28.059 --> 00:17:29.500
 walking, sitting here,

00:17:29.740 --> 00:17:30.220
 listening,

00:17:31.019 --> 00:17:31.639
 sitting here,

00:17:31.899 --> 00:17:32.919
 singing the songs,

00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:34.740
 and hearing the word.

00:17:34.859 --> 00:17:36.000
 It's possible for you

00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:37.279
 to be physically alive,

00:17:37.379 --> 00:17:39.659
 but spiritually dead.

00:17:41.159 --> 00:17:42.559
 And this is our natural state

00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:43.359
 because of sin,

00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:44.740
 which is why Jesus says,

00:17:45.399 --> 00:17:46.599
 you must be born again

00:17:46.599 --> 00:17:48.740
 to enter the kingdom of God.

00:17:50.679 --> 00:17:51.879
 The devil lies.

00:17:52.339 --> 00:17:53.639
 You will not surely die.

00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:55.220
 He tells him another lie in verse 5.

00:17:56.700 --> 00:17:58.240
 God knows that when you eat of it,

00:17:58.460 --> 00:17:59.559
 your eyes will be opened

00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:01.440
 and you will be like God,

00:18:01.579 --> 00:18:03.139
 knowing good and evil.

00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:03.940
 Just zoom out

00:18:03.940 --> 00:18:06.579
 and think about how ridiculous this is.

00:18:06.579 --> 00:18:10.359
 Adam and Eve

00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:13.359
 are made in the image of God,

00:18:13.419 --> 00:18:13.919
 are they not?

00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:16.919
 They are the only creatures

00:18:16.919 --> 00:18:18.019
 in the world

00:18:18.019 --> 00:18:21.279
 that are made in the image of God.

00:18:22.139 --> 00:18:23.339
 No one else,

00:18:23.460 --> 00:18:25.240
 no creature in all of creation

00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:27.139
 is more like God than them.

00:18:27.220 --> 00:18:28.379
 They don't need to take cues

00:18:28.379 --> 00:18:29.639
 from a talking snake

00:18:29.639 --> 00:18:31.899
 on how to be made like God.

00:18:32.779 --> 00:18:33.859
 It's a lie.

00:18:33.859 --> 00:18:37.119
 Church, we should know

00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:38.279
 that the devil was a liar

00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:39.519
 from the beginning.

00:18:40.740 --> 00:18:42.959
 And everywhere he exerts his influence,

00:18:43.079 --> 00:18:45.099
 he does it through lies.

00:18:45.259 --> 00:18:46.279
 And you see what he does here.

00:18:46.419 --> 00:18:48.719
 He oversells the benefits

00:18:48.719 --> 00:18:50.719
 and he undersells

00:18:50.719 --> 00:18:52.279
 the consequence of sin.

00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:52.759
 You see that?

00:18:54.740 --> 00:18:56.059
 You'll be like God.

00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:58.659
 You'll be wise.

00:18:58.819 --> 00:19:00.099
 Think about how it'll benefit you.

00:19:00.179 --> 00:19:01.679
 And don't worry about the consequence.

00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:02.719
 You won't die.

00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:05.460
 He oversells the benefits

00:19:05.460 --> 00:19:07.740
 and he undersells the consequence.

00:19:07.860 --> 00:19:08.220
 And church,

00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:10.960
 isn't that always how it is

00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:12.059
 when we face temptation?

00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:15.759
 You think about whatever that is for you.

00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:18.920
 Whatever you tend to be led astray by,

00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:20.220
 be that pride,

00:19:21.140 --> 00:19:21.980
 or lust,

00:19:22.940 --> 00:19:23.519
 greed,

00:19:23.900 --> 00:19:25.059
 or anger,

00:19:25.380 --> 00:19:26.140
 or selfishness,

00:19:26.299 --> 00:19:27.440
 sins of the tongue

00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:28.120
 and of speech

00:19:28.120 --> 00:19:29.299
 like we spoke about this morning

00:19:29.299 --> 00:19:30.000
 in Sunday school.

00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:32.380
 In that moment of temptation,

00:19:32.380 --> 00:19:33.120
 you're not talking,

00:19:33.180 --> 00:19:34.580
 you're not thinking about consequence.

00:19:35.140 --> 00:19:36.700
 You're thinking about benefit.

00:19:36.860 --> 00:19:38.540
 How can this serve me?

00:19:40.600 --> 00:19:41.500
 Take a step back

00:19:41.500 --> 00:19:42.100
 and you realize

00:19:42.100 --> 00:19:43.500
 it's always a lie.

00:19:43.700 --> 00:19:44.080
 Sins,

00:19:44.320 --> 00:19:44.660
 pleasures,

00:19:44.820 --> 00:19:46.340
 are never worth it.

00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:48.120
 The enemy baits the hook.

00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:49.740
 He doesn't want you to see the hook.

00:19:49.800 --> 00:19:50.500
 He covers it up

00:19:50.500 --> 00:19:51.600
 with this delicious,

00:19:52.120 --> 00:19:52.900
 appealing bait.

00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:53.580
 Whatever it is

00:19:53.580 --> 00:19:54.600
 that appeals to us,

00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:55.780
 which is what we see

00:19:55.780 --> 00:19:57.360
 in this fourth tactic here.

00:19:57.440 --> 00:19:57.980
 Number four,

00:19:57.980 --> 00:19:59.620
 the enemy plays

00:19:59.620 --> 00:20:01.200
 to our desires.

00:20:02.900 --> 00:20:04.599
 This is how temptation works.

00:20:05.819 --> 00:20:06.900
 Look at verse six.

00:20:08.099 --> 00:20:09.519
 When the woman saw

00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:11.380
 that the tree was good for food

00:20:11.380 --> 00:20:13.559
 and that it was a delight

00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:14.500
 to the eyes

00:20:14.500 --> 00:20:15.460
 and that the tree

00:20:15.460 --> 00:20:16.420
 was to be desired

00:20:16.420 --> 00:20:17.620
 to make one wise,

00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:19.140
 she took of its fruit

00:20:19.140 --> 00:20:20.200
 and ate.

00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:22.220
 And she also gave some

00:20:22.220 --> 00:20:23.019
 to her husband

00:20:23.019 --> 00:20:24.039
 who was with her

00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:25.059
 and he ate.

00:20:25.180 --> 00:20:25.740
 First of all,

00:20:25.740 --> 00:20:26.819
 can we talk about Adam

00:20:26.819 --> 00:20:27.500
 here for a minute?

00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:31.880
 Where was Adam

00:20:31.880 --> 00:20:34.200
 the whole time

00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:35.440
 this was going on?

00:20:36.500 --> 00:20:37.740
 Where was Adam

00:20:37.740 --> 00:20:38.559
 the leader?

00:20:39.599 --> 00:20:40.460
 Where was Adam

00:20:40.460 --> 00:20:41.519
 the head?

00:20:41.620 --> 00:20:42.299
 Where was Adam

00:20:42.299 --> 00:20:43.299
 the husband?

00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:45.819
 Where was the guardian there?

00:20:46.059 --> 00:20:47.599
 The man in the garden?

00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:48.319
 He's supposed to be

00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:49.920
 the godly authority,

00:20:50.059 --> 00:20:50.700
 the protector.

00:20:50.900 --> 00:20:51.700
 Where was Adam

00:20:51.700 --> 00:20:53.000
 this whole time?

00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:54.759
 He was right there

00:20:54.759 --> 00:20:55.579
 with her.

00:20:56.480 --> 00:20:57.539
 He just stands by

00:20:57.539 --> 00:20:58.620
 and lets it all happen.

00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:01.359
 Passive Adam

00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:02.960
 stands by

00:21:02.960 --> 00:21:04.000
 and watches

00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:04.980
 as this snake

00:21:04.980 --> 00:21:06.660
 lies about God

00:21:06.660 --> 00:21:08.480
 and then tricks his wife.

00:21:10.460 --> 00:21:11.680
 But both of them here

00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:13.740
 make this fatal mistake.

00:21:13.880 --> 00:21:14.559
 This is what they do.

00:21:14.680 --> 00:21:15.240
 Listen to this.

00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:17.539
 They make this fatal mistake

00:21:17.539 --> 00:21:20.799
 of trusting their desires.

00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:21.019
 others.

00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:23.619
 You know we live

00:21:23.619 --> 00:21:24.220
 in a culture

00:21:24.220 --> 00:21:26.240
 that will tell you

00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:26.879
 things like

00:21:26.879 --> 00:21:28.579
 follow your heart.

00:21:29.059 --> 00:21:29.319
 Right?

00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:32.339
 If it feels good,

00:21:32.539 --> 00:21:33.359
 it's okay.

00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:36.539
 If I want to do something

00:21:36.539 --> 00:21:38.059
 or like something

00:21:38.059 --> 00:21:39.359
 or be something,

00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:40.899
 if it's what I desire,

00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:43.460
 nobody can say no to me

00:21:43.460 --> 00:21:45.339
 or it's not affirming to me.

00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:47.599
 It's not loving to me

00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:48.339
 to deny me

00:21:48.339 --> 00:21:49.339
 of my desire.

00:21:49.339 --> 00:21:49.699
 Listen,

00:21:50.579 --> 00:21:51.599
 our desires

00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:54.079
 cannot always be trusted.

00:21:54.079 --> 00:21:57.159
 Our feelings

00:21:57.159 --> 00:21:59.939
 cannot always be trusted.

00:22:00.939 --> 00:22:02.439
 Our emotions,

00:22:02.639 --> 00:22:03.899
 how we feel about something

00:22:03.899 --> 00:22:06.259
 cannot always be trusted.

00:22:06.519 --> 00:22:07.119
 Feelings

00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:08.359
 and desires

00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:09.399
 and emotions

00:22:09.399 --> 00:22:11.240
 are wonderful things

00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:13.259
 when they follow

00:22:13.259 --> 00:22:14.199
 the truth.

00:22:15.659 --> 00:22:16.379
 Only

00:22:16.379 --> 00:22:18.259
 when they follow

00:22:18.259 --> 00:22:19.199
 the truth.

00:22:19.200 --> 00:22:19.759
 Otherwise,

00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:20.799
 don't trust them.

00:22:22.580 --> 00:22:23.860
 James tells us

00:22:23.860 --> 00:22:24.779
 each person

00:22:24.779 --> 00:22:25.400
 is tempted

00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:26.039
 when he is

00:22:26.039 --> 00:22:26.720
 lured

00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:27.480
 and enticed

00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:29.080
 by his own desire.

00:22:30.340 --> 00:22:30.940
 Then desire,

00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:32.000
 when it has conceived,

00:22:32.299 --> 00:22:33.559
 gives birth to sin

00:22:33.559 --> 00:22:34.440
 and sin,

00:22:34.539 --> 00:22:35.640
 when it is fully grown,

00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:36.920
 brings forth

00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:38.299
 death.

00:22:38.779 --> 00:22:39.420
 Here we see

00:22:39.420 --> 00:22:40.120
 Eve is

00:22:40.120 --> 00:22:41.259
 tempted

00:22:41.259 --> 00:22:42.039
 by the lust

00:22:42.039 --> 00:22:42.920
 of the flesh.

00:22:44.059 --> 00:22:45.019
 She sees

00:22:45.019 --> 00:22:45.559
 that it's good

00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:46.160
 for food.

00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:48.200
 She's tempted

00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:49.039
 by the lust

00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:50.140
 of the eyes.

00:22:50.319 --> 00:22:51.160
 It looks

00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:51.740
 good.

00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:53.460
 And she's tempted

00:22:53.460 --> 00:22:54.220
 by the lust

00:22:54.220 --> 00:22:55.380
 of pride.

00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:56.940
 It's desired

00:22:56.940 --> 00:22:58.400
 to make me wise,

00:22:58.500 --> 00:22:59.539
 make me like God.

00:23:00.660 --> 00:23:01.319
 And all of it

00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:02.840
 is too much.

00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:03.480
 So we see

00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:04.559
 that she saw

00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:05.259
 it was good

00:23:05.259 --> 00:23:06.039
 to be desired.

00:23:06.220 --> 00:23:07.180
 She took it,

00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:07.819
 she ate it,

00:23:07.860 --> 00:23:08.400
 and her husband

00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:09.259
 who was with her

00:23:09.259 --> 00:23:09.720
 who should have

00:23:09.720 --> 00:23:10.940
 stopped the whole thing

00:23:10.940 --> 00:23:11.980
 took

00:23:11.980 --> 00:23:13.580
 and he ate.

00:23:13.720 --> 00:23:14.080
 And now,

00:23:14.220 --> 00:23:14.500
 second,

00:23:15.700 --> 00:23:16.580
 we see the tragic

00:23:16.580 --> 00:23:17.400
 effects

00:23:17.400 --> 00:23:18.580
 of sin.

00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:20.380
 Look there with me

00:23:20.380 --> 00:23:21.220
 starting in verse 7.

00:23:22.300 --> 00:23:22.840
 We see these

00:23:22.840 --> 00:23:24.120
 effects of sin.

00:23:24.220 --> 00:23:24.600
 We'll see this

00:23:24.600 --> 00:23:25.180
 throughout the rest

00:23:25.180 --> 00:23:25.759
 of the chapter.

00:23:25.900 --> 00:23:26.460
 I had to stop

00:23:26.460 --> 00:23:27.000
 somewhere.

00:23:27.840 --> 00:23:28.360
 We're going to stop

00:23:28.360 --> 00:23:29.200
 at verse 13.

00:23:30.380 --> 00:23:31.000
 Well, for one,

00:23:31.080 --> 00:23:32.160
 they felt shame.

00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:34.500
 Verse 7,

00:23:34.580 --> 00:23:35.220
 Then the eyes

00:23:35.220 --> 00:23:35.720
 of both

00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:36.340
 were opened

00:23:36.340 --> 00:23:37.759
 and they knew

00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:38.620
 that they were naked.

00:23:39.460 --> 00:23:40.300
 And they sewed

00:23:40.300 --> 00:23:41.480
 fig leaves together

00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:42.560
 and made themselves

00:23:42.560 --> 00:23:43.740
 loincloths.

00:23:43.740 --> 00:23:45.180
 for the first time,

00:23:46.299 --> 00:23:46.740
 mankind,

00:23:47.200 --> 00:23:47.900
 they felt this

00:23:47.900 --> 00:23:49.019
 awareness

00:23:49.019 --> 00:23:51.359
 and the shame

00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:52.680
 of their nakedness.

00:23:52.819 --> 00:23:52.940
 You know,

00:23:52.980 --> 00:23:54.460
 we have all felt

00:23:54.460 --> 00:23:55.579
 this with our sin.

00:23:55.720 --> 00:23:56.200
 Have we not?

00:23:57.539 --> 00:23:58.859
 Even non-believers,

00:23:59.019 --> 00:24:00.420
 you know deep down

00:24:00.420 --> 00:24:01.180
 that your rebellion

00:24:01.180 --> 00:24:02.019
 against the Lord

00:24:02.019 --> 00:24:02.859
 is wrong.

00:24:03.740 --> 00:24:04.660
 And when the temporary

00:24:04.660 --> 00:24:06.180
 pleasure of that sin

00:24:06.180 --> 00:24:07.339
 washes away

00:24:07.339 --> 00:24:08.299
 and passes away,

00:24:08.380 --> 00:24:09.519
 often what we're left

00:24:09.519 --> 00:24:10.319
 with at the end

00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:11.519
 is shame.

00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:13.700
 And notice what

00:24:13.700 --> 00:24:14.419
 they do with it.

00:24:14.460 --> 00:24:14.960
 Look how they try

00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:15.720
 to handle it.

00:24:16.619 --> 00:24:17.500
 They go and they try

00:24:17.500 --> 00:24:19.240
 and cover themselves up.

00:24:20.399 --> 00:24:21.419
 They grab whatever

00:24:21.419 --> 00:24:22.079
 they can find.

00:24:22.179 --> 00:24:23.339
 They sew fig leaves

00:24:23.339 --> 00:24:23.779
 together.

00:24:23.939 --> 00:24:24.579
 They make themselves

00:24:24.579 --> 00:24:25.439
 loincloths.

00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:27.159
 They try by their own

00:24:27.159 --> 00:24:28.419
 efforts to cover up

00:24:28.419 --> 00:24:29.259
 their shame.

00:24:29.659 --> 00:24:31.019
 Every single one of us

00:24:31.019 --> 00:24:31.659
 does this,

00:24:31.700 --> 00:24:32.079
 don't we?

00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:34.720
 We feel shame.

00:24:35.220 --> 00:24:36.480
 We sin and we feel

00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:37.079
 that shame.

00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.319
 And instead of running

00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:39.339
 to the Lord

00:24:39.339 --> 00:24:40.019
 as we ought,

00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:42.439
 we try some man-made

00:24:42.439 --> 00:24:43.799
 method of covering

00:24:43.799 --> 00:24:45.199
 it up.

00:24:47.059 --> 00:24:48.039
 Sometimes this is just

00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:48.799
 how sin works.

00:24:48.939 --> 00:24:50.879
 Sometimes the very thing

00:24:50.879 --> 00:24:52.500
 that brings us shame

00:24:52.500 --> 00:24:53.399
 is the same thing

00:24:53.399 --> 00:24:54.519
 that we turn to

00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:55.720
 to try and cover it up

00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:56.720
 and make us feel better.

00:24:57.819 --> 00:24:59.240
 It's this tragic,

00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:01.039
 endless cycle.

00:25:01.259 --> 00:25:02.399
 We self-medicate

00:25:02.399 --> 00:25:03.359
 with drugs

00:25:03.359 --> 00:25:05.519
 or with alcohol

00:25:05.519 --> 00:25:07.819
 or with pornography.

00:25:07.819 --> 00:25:10.179
 It's this endless

00:25:10.179 --> 00:25:11.579
 depressing cycle.

00:25:12.740 --> 00:25:13.819
 Or on the other end

00:25:13.819 --> 00:25:14.359
 of the spectrum,

00:25:14.500 --> 00:25:15.839
 maybe we try and cover

00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:16.539
 ourselves up

00:25:16.539 --> 00:25:18.359
 with good things,

00:25:18.460 --> 00:25:19.059
 things that we think

00:25:19.059 --> 00:25:20.240
 will please God

00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:21.439
 with religion

00:25:21.439 --> 00:25:23.639
 or good works.

00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:25.919
 Maybe if I just try harder.

00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:27.740
 Maybe if I just do more.

00:25:27.859 --> 00:25:29.179
 Maybe if I'm just

00:25:29.179 --> 00:25:29.980
 a little bit better

00:25:29.980 --> 00:25:30.700
 next time.

00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:31.059
 Listen,

00:25:31.399 --> 00:25:32.740
 that's not the answer either.

00:25:32.740 --> 00:25:35.359
 All of these

00:25:35.359 --> 00:25:37.140
 are feeble attempts

00:25:37.140 --> 00:25:37.819
 to cover up

00:25:37.819 --> 00:25:39.359
 our fundamental problem,

00:25:39.480 --> 00:25:40.079
 which is this.

00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:41.779
 We are all sinners.

00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:44.140
 We are naked

00:25:44.140 --> 00:25:44.900
 and exposed

00:25:44.900 --> 00:25:45.700
 and guilty

00:25:45.700 --> 00:25:46.740
 in the sight of God

00:25:46.740 --> 00:25:47.720
 and the answer for us

00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:48.720
 isn't just to try

00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:49.440
 and do something

00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:50.599
 to cover it up

00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:51.680
 as much as we want to.

00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:53.240
 We can't do anything

00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:54.460
 to cover up our shame.

00:25:54.579 --> 00:25:55.120
 The answer

00:25:55.120 --> 00:25:57.559
 is come to Christ.

00:25:59.740 --> 00:26:00.900
 Only Jesus

00:26:00.900 --> 00:26:02.300
 can cover our shame.

00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:05.440
 He bore our shame.

00:26:07.940 --> 00:26:09.240
 They experience shame

00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:09.759
 in the garden.

00:26:09.880 --> 00:26:10.580
 We also see that

00:26:10.580 --> 00:26:11.420
 because of their sin

00:26:11.420 --> 00:26:12.420
 for the first time

00:26:12.420 --> 00:26:13.259
 they experience

00:26:13.259 --> 00:26:14.360
 separation

00:26:14.360 --> 00:26:15.620
 from the Lord.

00:26:15.780 --> 00:26:16.280
 Verse 8

00:26:16.280 --> 00:26:18.660
 They heard the sound

00:26:18.660 --> 00:26:19.120
 of the Lord

00:26:19.120 --> 00:26:20.140
 walking in the garden

00:26:20.140 --> 00:26:21.180
 in the cool of the day

00:26:21.180 --> 00:26:22.380
 and the man and his wife

00:26:22.380 --> 00:26:23.759
 hid themselves

00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:25.140
 from the presence

00:26:25.140 --> 00:26:26.380
 of the Lord God

00:26:26.380 --> 00:26:27.280
 among the trees

00:26:27.280 --> 00:26:28.440
 of the garden.

00:26:28.580 --> 00:26:30.200
 For the first time

00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:32.240
 there is now

00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:33.259
 distance

00:26:33.259 --> 00:26:35.299
 separation

00:26:35.299 --> 00:26:37.039
 between them

00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:37.720
 and God.

00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:39.000
 For the first time

00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:40.120
 they are afraid

00:26:40.120 --> 00:26:41.220
 of the Lord

00:26:41.220 --> 00:26:42.779
 and they try

00:26:42.779 --> 00:26:43.539
 and hide themselves

00:26:43.539 --> 00:26:44.319
 away from them

00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:45.000
 and what a foolish

00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:45.740
 thing that is.

00:26:45.779 --> 00:26:46.420
 Can you imagine?

00:26:47.559 --> 00:26:49.220
 The Lord God

00:26:49.220 --> 00:26:50.720
 who owns all

00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:51.660
 and sees all

00:26:51.660 --> 00:26:52.460
 and knows all

00:26:52.460 --> 00:26:53.640
 you cannot hide

00:26:53.640 --> 00:26:54.620
 yourself from God

00:26:54.620 --> 00:26:55.440
 but what a tragedy

00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:56.380
 it is that they even

00:26:56.380 --> 00:26:57.460
 thought of this

00:26:57.460 --> 00:26:59.880
 for the very first time

00:26:59.880 --> 00:27:01.620
 sin has entered in

00:27:01.620 --> 00:27:02.640
 and severed

00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:03.640
 the relationship

00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:04.960
 between man and God

00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:06.240
 and they are afraid.

00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:09.100
 I know this has never

00:27:09.100 --> 00:27:09.740
 happened to you

00:27:09.740 --> 00:27:10.380
 but it's kind of like

00:27:10.380 --> 00:27:10.860
 when you're driving

00:27:10.860 --> 00:27:12.039
 down Highway 17

00:27:12.039 --> 00:27:14.799
 going about 25-30 miles

00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:15.319
 an hour

00:27:15.319 --> 00:27:16.180
 too fast

00:27:16.180 --> 00:27:18.880
 and you hear a siren

00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:19.860
 behind you

00:27:19.860 --> 00:27:21.940
 and what do you do?

00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:22.480
 Well you

00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:23.860
 you just kind of

00:27:23.860 --> 00:27:24.420
 inch over

00:27:24.420 --> 00:27:25.620
 to the right hand lane

00:27:25.619 --> 00:27:26.459
 and hope maybe

00:27:26.459 --> 00:27:27.039
 just maybe

00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:27.699
 they'll just pass

00:27:27.699 --> 00:27:28.639
 right by you

00:27:28.639 --> 00:27:30.079
 and show you

00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:30.679
 some mercy

00:27:30.679 --> 00:27:31.500
 maybe they won't

00:27:31.500 --> 00:27:32.000
 see you

00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:32.559
 maybe they're not

00:27:32.559 --> 00:27:33.399
 they're not coming

00:27:33.399 --> 00:27:34.159
 for you

00:27:34.159 --> 00:27:35.219
 you hide

00:27:35.219 --> 00:27:36.000
 but you know

00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:36.559
 in your heart

00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:36.959
 that they have

00:27:36.959 --> 00:27:37.699
 every right

00:27:37.699 --> 00:27:38.439
 to pull you over

00:27:38.439 --> 00:27:39.219
 and write you a ticket

00:27:39.219 --> 00:27:41.959
 you know that you're guilty

00:27:41.959 --> 00:27:42.599
 you just hope

00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:43.879
 that he passes you by

00:27:43.879 --> 00:27:44.799
 you know there's an echo

00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:45.939
 of this account

00:27:45.939 --> 00:27:47.239
 here in Genesis

00:27:47.239 --> 00:27:48.639
 with Adam and Eve

00:27:48.639 --> 00:27:49.659
 hiding amongst the

00:27:49.659 --> 00:27:50.599
 trees of the garden

00:27:50.599 --> 00:27:52.619
 hiding because of

00:27:52.619 --> 00:27:53.039
 their sin

00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:53.679
 there's an echo

00:27:53.679 --> 00:27:54.839
 of this all the way

00:27:54.839 --> 00:27:55.859
 at the end of the book

00:27:55.859 --> 00:27:56.639
 in Revelation

00:27:56.639 --> 00:27:59.000
 the return of the Lord

00:27:59.000 --> 00:27:59.980
 the day of the Lord

00:27:59.980 --> 00:28:01.839
 the wicked hide themselves

00:28:01.839 --> 00:28:02.679
 in rocks

00:28:02.679 --> 00:28:04.000
 and in caves

00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:04.980
 and they beg

00:28:04.980 --> 00:28:05.559
 that the rocks

00:28:05.559 --> 00:28:06.599
 might cover them up

00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:07.539
 that they might be hidden

00:28:07.539 --> 00:28:08.319
 from the wrath

00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:09.179
 of the Lord

00:28:09.179 --> 00:28:11.500
 but for them

00:28:11.500 --> 00:28:12.299
 it's too late

00:28:12.299 --> 00:28:15.059
 here God

00:28:15.059 --> 00:28:16.259
 we see he doesn't

00:28:16.259 --> 00:28:17.179
 pass them by

00:28:17.179 --> 00:28:17.939
 and God certainly

00:28:17.939 --> 00:28:18.980
 could have come

00:28:18.980 --> 00:28:19.500
 in wrath

00:28:19.500 --> 00:28:20.319
 right away

00:28:20.319 --> 00:28:21.199
 that very minute

00:28:21.199 --> 00:28:21.659
 but instead

00:28:21.659 --> 00:28:22.179
 look how he

00:28:22.179 --> 00:28:23.679
 look how he approaches them

00:28:23.680 --> 00:28:25.799
 he comes

00:28:25.799 --> 00:28:27.400
 gently

00:28:27.400 --> 00:28:30.400
 and graciously

00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:32.360
 asking these

00:28:32.360 --> 00:28:33.680
 these probing

00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:35.320
 rhetorical questions

00:28:35.320 --> 00:28:36.440
 he's like a parent

00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:37.779
 with a disobedient

00:28:37.779 --> 00:28:38.360
 child

00:28:38.360 --> 00:28:39.420
 son what were you

00:28:39.420 --> 00:28:39.860
 thinking

00:28:39.860 --> 00:28:42.060
 son why did you

00:28:42.060 --> 00:28:42.640
 do this

00:28:42.640 --> 00:28:43.860
 where

00:28:43.860 --> 00:28:45.060
 where are you

00:28:45.060 --> 00:28:46.500
 who told you

00:28:46.500 --> 00:28:47.340
 not to eat

00:28:47.340 --> 00:28:47.980
 of the tree

00:28:47.980 --> 00:28:49.240
 who told you

00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:50.039
 who told you

00:28:50.039 --> 00:28:50.740
 that you were naked

00:28:50.740 --> 00:28:51.299
 have you eaten

00:28:51.299 --> 00:28:51.779
 of the tree

00:28:51.779 --> 00:28:52.420
 which I commanded

00:28:52.420 --> 00:28:53.460
 you not to eat

00:28:53.460 --> 00:28:56.180
 and we know

00:28:56.180 --> 00:28:56.980
 that the day

00:28:56.980 --> 00:28:57.879
 of God's wrath

00:28:57.879 --> 00:28:58.619
 is coming

00:28:58.619 --> 00:29:01.000
 but here

00:29:01.000 --> 00:29:01.500
 we see

00:29:01.500 --> 00:29:01.940
 this is

00:29:01.940 --> 00:29:02.940
 this is the Lord

00:29:02.940 --> 00:29:03.899
 graciously

00:29:03.899 --> 00:29:04.680
 pursuing

00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:05.339
 sinners

00:29:05.339 --> 00:29:08.240
 but even so

00:29:08.240 --> 00:29:08.759
 the effect

00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:09.279
 of their sin

00:29:09.279 --> 00:29:09.920
 is obvious

00:29:09.920 --> 00:29:10.639
 their sin

00:29:10.639 --> 00:29:11.440
 has brought

00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:12.420
 separation

00:29:12.420 --> 00:29:13.379
 between them

00:29:13.379 --> 00:29:14.139
 and God

00:29:14.139 --> 00:29:15.319
 and so it is

00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:15.960
 with each

00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:16.700
 and every

00:29:16.700 --> 00:29:17.259
 one

00:29:17.259 --> 00:29:18.500
 of us

00:29:18.500 --> 00:29:21.680
 our sin

00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:23.759
 has earned

00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:24.259
 us

00:29:24.259 --> 00:29:25.400
 separation

00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:26.900
 from God

00:29:26.900 --> 00:29:28.480
 and we

00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:29.559
 cannot hide

00:29:29.559 --> 00:29:30.079
 ourselves

00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:30.779
 from him

00:29:30.779 --> 00:29:31.880
 Hebrews chapter 4

00:29:31.880 --> 00:29:32.900
 says no creature

00:29:32.900 --> 00:29:33.339
 is hidden

00:29:33.339 --> 00:29:34.220
 from his sight

00:29:34.220 --> 00:29:35.359
 but all

00:29:35.359 --> 00:29:36.119
 are naked

00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:37.180
 and exposed

00:29:37.180 --> 00:29:38.319
 to the eyes

00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:38.759
 of him

00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:39.180
 to whom

00:29:39.180 --> 00:29:39.799
 we must

00:29:39.799 --> 00:29:40.319
 give

00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:41.319
 an account

00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:43.960
 but instead

00:29:43.960 --> 00:29:44.339
 of coming

00:29:44.339 --> 00:29:44.900
 to him

00:29:44.900 --> 00:29:46.539
 and owning

00:29:46.539 --> 00:29:47.400
 their sin

00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:49.320
 and repenting

00:29:49.320 --> 00:29:50.019
 to him

00:29:50.019 --> 00:29:50.620
 look what they do

00:29:50.620 --> 00:29:51.440
 here in verse 12

00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:52.660
 we see another

00:29:52.660 --> 00:29:53.700
 effect here

00:29:53.700 --> 00:29:54.280
 of their sin

00:29:54.280 --> 00:29:54.860
 look what they do

00:29:54.860 --> 00:29:56.060
 they blame

00:29:56.060 --> 00:29:56.740
 shift

00:29:56.740 --> 00:29:58.580
 they shift

00:29:58.580 --> 00:29:59.240
 the blame

00:29:59.240 --> 00:29:59.900
 onto anybody

00:29:59.900 --> 00:30:01.040
 and everybody

00:30:01.040 --> 00:30:01.980
 else besides

00:30:01.980 --> 00:30:02.580
 themselves

00:30:02.580 --> 00:30:03.840
 look how quickly

00:30:03.840 --> 00:30:04.940
 Adam goes

00:30:04.940 --> 00:30:06.180
 from rejoicing

00:30:06.180 --> 00:30:07.120
 over his bride

00:30:07.120 --> 00:30:08.080
 here in chapter 2

00:30:08.080 --> 00:30:09.380
 to throwing her

00:30:09.380 --> 00:30:10.460
 right under the bus

00:30:10.460 --> 00:30:11.420
 here in chapter 3

00:30:11.420 --> 00:30:13.860
 this woman

00:30:13.860 --> 00:30:16.280
 not just this woman

00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:17.399
 but this woman

00:30:17.399 --> 00:30:18.139
 that you

00:30:18.139 --> 00:30:19.059
 gave me

00:30:19.059 --> 00:30:21.160
 she gave me

00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:21.639
 the fruit

00:30:21.639 --> 00:30:22.279
 and I ate

00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:24.079
 y'all the honeymoon

00:30:24.079 --> 00:30:24.779
 is over

00:30:24.779 --> 00:30:27.399
 he blames

00:30:27.399 --> 00:30:28.319
 his wife

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:29.000
 and essentially

00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:29.700
 he blames

00:30:29.700 --> 00:30:30.220
 God

00:30:30.220 --> 00:30:31.639
 this defective

00:30:31.639 --> 00:30:31.960
 helper

00:30:31.960 --> 00:30:32.539
 that you

00:30:32.539 --> 00:30:33.220
 gave me

00:30:33.220 --> 00:30:33.680
 that's the

00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:34.039
 problem

00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:34.819
 it's her fault

00:30:34.819 --> 00:30:36.819
 the Lord

00:30:36.819 --> 00:30:37.319
 turns his

00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:37.639
 attention

00:30:37.639 --> 00:30:38.279
 to the woman

00:30:38.279 --> 00:30:38.740
 and he says

00:30:38.740 --> 00:30:39.339
 what is this

00:30:39.339 --> 00:30:39.819
 that you

00:30:39.819 --> 00:30:40.559
 have done

00:30:40.559 --> 00:30:41.839
 what does

00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:42.460
 she do

00:30:42.460 --> 00:30:43.559
 well she

00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:44.139
 turns and

00:30:44.139 --> 00:30:44.539
 points the

00:30:44.539 --> 00:30:45.220
 finger at the

00:30:45.220 --> 00:30:45.619
 serpent

00:30:45.619 --> 00:30:47.500
 the serpent

00:30:47.500 --> 00:30:48.359
 deceived me

00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:49.159
 and I ate

00:30:49.159 --> 00:30:51.099
 Adam points

00:30:51.099 --> 00:30:51.539
 his finger

00:30:51.539 --> 00:30:52.179
 at his wife

00:30:52.179 --> 00:30:52.519
 he says

00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:53.199
 it's her fault

00:30:53.199 --> 00:30:53.599
 he points

00:30:53.599 --> 00:30:54.019
 his finger

00:30:54.019 --> 00:30:54.599
 at God

00:30:54.599 --> 00:30:55.000
 he says

00:30:55.000 --> 00:30:55.779
 it's your fault

00:30:55.779 --> 00:30:56.599
 she points

00:30:56.599 --> 00:30:56.979
 the finger

00:30:56.979 --> 00:30:57.599
 at the serpent

00:30:57.599 --> 00:30:58.659
 says it's his fault

00:30:58.659 --> 00:31:00.000
 no one

00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:01.399
 here is owning

00:31:01.399 --> 00:31:02.439
 their sin

00:31:02.439 --> 00:31:03.319
 before the Lord

00:31:03.319 --> 00:31:06.299
 no one

00:31:06.299 --> 00:31:07.159
 confesses

00:31:07.159 --> 00:31:09.359
 no one

00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:10.199
 repents

00:31:10.199 --> 00:31:12.359
 no one

00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:12.899
 takes full

00:31:12.899 --> 00:31:13.500
 responsibility

00:31:13.500 --> 00:31:14.399
 for their

00:31:14.399 --> 00:31:15.399
 own sin

00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:18.380
 I wonder

00:31:18.380 --> 00:31:21.680
 when was

00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:22.280
 the last

00:31:22.280 --> 00:31:22.900
 time that

00:31:22.900 --> 00:31:23.380
 you

00:31:23.380 --> 00:31:25.320
 simply

00:31:25.320 --> 00:31:26.620
 fully

00:31:26.620 --> 00:31:27.940
 completely

00:31:27.940 --> 00:31:28.780
 owned

00:31:28.780 --> 00:31:29.060
 your

00:31:29.060 --> 00:31:29.519
 sinfulness

00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:30.040
 before the

00:31:30.040 --> 00:31:30.340
 Lord

00:31:30.340 --> 00:31:32.880
 you didn't

00:31:32.880 --> 00:31:33.160
 blame

00:31:33.160 --> 00:31:33.540
 shift

00:31:33.540 --> 00:31:33.960
 point the

00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:34.180
 finger

00:31:34.180 --> 00:31:34.540
 at someone

00:31:34.540 --> 00:31:34.980
 else

00:31:34.980 --> 00:31:36.380
 you didn't

00:31:36.380 --> 00:31:36.940
 say I'm

00:31:36.940 --> 00:31:37.320
 sorry

00:31:37.320 --> 00:31:37.800
 but

00:31:37.800 --> 00:31:39.040
 you didn't

00:31:39.040 --> 00:31:39.400
 give any

00:31:39.400 --> 00:31:40.040
 excuse

00:31:40.040 --> 00:31:41.180
 any extra

00:31:41.180 --> 00:31:41.680
 explanation

00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:42.500
 you simply

00:31:42.500 --> 00:31:43.279
 before the

00:31:43.279 --> 00:31:43.539
 Lord

00:31:43.539 --> 00:31:44.279
 said I

00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:44.900
 am a

00:31:44.900 --> 00:31:45.320
 sinner

00:31:45.320 --> 00:31:46.200
 you see

00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:46.960
 my sin

00:31:46.960 --> 00:31:47.660
 I know

00:31:47.660 --> 00:31:48.299
 my guilt

00:31:48.299 --> 00:31:48.560
 and I

00:31:48.560 --> 00:31:49.019
 bring it

00:31:49.019 --> 00:31:49.820
 before you

00:31:49.820 --> 00:31:50.200
 would you

00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:50.799
 have mercy

00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:51.480
 on me

00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:52.160
 a sinner

00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:55.540
 let me

00:31:55.540 --> 00:31:55.960
 ask it like

00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:56.220
 this

00:31:56.220 --> 00:31:56.600
 when's the

00:31:56.600 --> 00:31:57.080
 last time

00:31:57.080 --> 00:31:57.680
 you really

00:31:57.680 --> 00:31:58.500
 practiced

00:31:58.500 --> 00:31:59.380
 repentance

00:31:59.380 --> 00:32:00.860
 and faith

00:32:00.860 --> 00:32:03.440
 those are

00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:03.740
 two pretty

00:32:03.740 --> 00:32:04.500
 key terms

00:32:04.500 --> 00:32:04.700
 that we

00:32:04.700 --> 00:32:04.940
 need to

00:32:04.940 --> 00:32:05.400
 understand

00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:05.940
 church

00:32:05.940 --> 00:32:07.180
 repentance

00:32:07.180 --> 00:32:08.620
 and faith

00:32:08.620 --> 00:32:09.420
 because this

00:32:09.420 --> 00:32:10.300
 is what it

00:32:10.300 --> 00:32:10.920
 means to

00:32:10.920 --> 00:32:11.759
 be a

00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:12.519
 Christian

00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:14.500
 to be

00:32:14.500 --> 00:32:15.279
 a Christian

00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:17.319
 you must

00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:17.740
 repent

00:32:17.740 --> 00:32:18.440
 of your

00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:18.960
 sin

00:32:18.960 --> 00:32:19.720
 and put

00:32:19.720 --> 00:32:20.379
 your faith

00:32:20.379 --> 00:32:21.240
 in Christ

00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:21.879
 Jesus

00:32:21.879 --> 00:32:22.839
 if you

00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:23.420
 have not

00:32:23.420 --> 00:32:24.079
 done this

00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:24.700
 you are

00:32:24.700 --> 00:32:25.079
 not a

00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:25.500
 Christian

00:32:25.500 --> 00:32:28.019
 and if you

00:32:28.019 --> 00:32:28.399
 are a

00:32:28.399 --> 00:32:28.819
 Christian

00:32:28.819 --> 00:32:29.139
 then you

00:32:29.139 --> 00:32:29.460
 start to

00:32:29.460 --> 00:32:29.899
 realize

00:32:29.899 --> 00:32:30.119
 this

00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:30.720
 this is a

00:32:30.720 --> 00:32:30.920
 whole

00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:31.519
 lifetime

00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:32.119
 worth of

00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:32.339
 faith

00:32:32.339 --> 00:32:32.879
 and repentance

00:32:32.879 --> 00:32:33.740
 I need

00:32:33.740 --> 00:32:34.139
 to repent

00:32:34.139 --> 00:32:34.799
 every day

00:32:34.799 --> 00:32:35.099
 I need

00:32:35.099 --> 00:32:35.759
 to remind

00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:36.139
 myself

00:32:36.139 --> 00:32:36.680
 to trust

00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:36.920
 in the

00:32:36.920 --> 00:32:37.139
 Lord

00:32:37.139 --> 00:32:37.500
 every

00:32:37.500 --> 00:32:37.859
 single

00:32:37.859 --> 00:32:38.180
 day

00:32:38.180 --> 00:32:38.480
 but it

00:32:38.480 --> 00:32:38.859
 happens

00:32:38.859 --> 00:32:39.779
 it starts

00:32:39.779 --> 00:32:40.460
 now

00:32:40.460 --> 00:32:41.039
 it starts

00:32:41.039 --> 00:32:41.680
 once

00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:42.039
 have you

00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:42.500
 have you

00:32:42.500 --> 00:32:43.019
 repented

00:32:43.019 --> 00:32:43.920
 and believed

00:32:43.920 --> 00:32:44.519
 the gospel

00:32:44.519 --> 00:32:47.599
 repentance

00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:48.599
 begins

00:32:48.599 --> 00:32:48.920
 with

00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:49.819
 fully

00:32:49.819 --> 00:32:50.299
 owning

00:32:50.299 --> 00:32:50.599
 your

00:32:50.599 --> 00:32:50.980
 sin

00:32:50.980 --> 00:32:51.339
 confess

00:32:51.339 --> 00:32:51.720
 it

00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:52.000
 own

00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:52.139
 it

00:32:52.139 --> 00:32:52.579
 I am

00:32:52.579 --> 00:32:53.039
 a sinner

00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:53.720
 I blew

00:32:53.720 --> 00:32:53.900
 it

00:32:53.900 --> 00:32:54.779
 I'm totally

00:32:54.779 --> 00:32:55.319
 powerless

00:32:55.319 --> 00:32:55.879
 to defeat

00:32:55.879 --> 00:32:56.019
 it

00:32:56.019 --> 00:32:56.440
 I can't

00:32:56.440 --> 00:32:56.740
 cover

00:32:56.740 --> 00:32:57.339
 myself

00:32:57.339 --> 00:32:57.759
 up

00:32:57.759 --> 00:32:58.319
 I can't

00:32:58.319 --> 00:32:58.759
 hide

00:32:58.759 --> 00:32:58.940
 it

00:32:58.940 --> 00:32:59.200
 from

00:32:59.200 --> 00:32:59.460
 you

00:32:59.460 --> 00:32:59.900
 you see

00:32:59.900 --> 00:33:00.119
 me

00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:00.980
 for exactly

00:33:00.980 --> 00:33:01.519
 who I

00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:01.900
 am

00:33:01.900 --> 00:33:02.460
 and so

00:33:02.460 --> 00:33:02.799
 what can

00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:03.019
 I do

00:33:03.019 --> 00:33:03.440
 but lay

00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:03.859
 myself

00:33:03.859 --> 00:33:04.240
 out

00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:04.639
 before

00:33:04.639 --> 00:33:05.039
 you

00:33:05.039 --> 00:33:05.980

00:33:05.980 --> 00:33:06.119
 you

00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:06.240
 to

00:33:07.900 --> 00:33:08.059
 sinner

00:33:08.059 --> 00:33:08.339
 like

00:33:08.339 --> 00:33:08.519
 me

00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:08.940
 that's

00:33:08.940 --> 00:33:09.400
 repentance

00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:11.819
 and then

00:33:11.819 --> 00:33:12.299
 faith

00:33:12.299 --> 00:33:13.700
 is

00:33:13.700 --> 00:33:14.559
 completely

00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:15.680
 trusting

00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:16.440
 Jesus

00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:17.240

00:33:17.980 --> 00:33:18.539
 your

00:33:18.539 --> 00:33:19.279
 place

00:33:19.279 --> 00:33:21.279
 say I

00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:21.799
 failed

00:33:21.799 --> 00:33:22.319
 I'm a

00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:22.559
 sinner

00:33:22.559 --> 00:33:24.000
 I

00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:24.720
 cannot

00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:25.900
 come back

00:33:25.900 --> 00:33:26.319
 into the

00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:26.819
 presence of

00:33:26.819 --> 00:33:27.039
 God

00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:27.360

00:33:27.620 --> 00:33:28.019
 account

00:33:28.019 --> 00:33:28.360

00:33:30.380 --> 00:33:30.920
 done

00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:31.360

00:33:31.360 --> 00:33:31.920
 sufficient

00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:33.319
 that's

00:33:33.319 --> 00:33:33.720
 faith

00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:34.860
