00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.540
 How lost are the lost.

00:00:30.940 --> 00:00:33.439
 I know that most of the people at the football stadium are outside of Christ.

00:00:33.539 --> 00:00:34.399
 They are under judgment.

00:00:35.939 --> 00:00:38.939
 But it is water off a duck's back, really.

00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:40.359
 It doesn't strike me.

00:00:40.420 --> 00:00:42.219
 You read the Lord Jesus.

00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:44.100
 The Lord Jesus came to Jerusalem.

00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:45.560
 He saw the crowd.

00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:47.920
 And he's moved with compassion.

00:00:49.400 --> 00:00:51.299
 You read some of the figures in church history.

00:00:51.299 --> 00:00:52.700
 They see the crowds.

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.079
 And they are moved with compassion.

00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:58.859
 I know people today that when they see crowds,

00:00:58.859 --> 00:01:00.820
 that is their immediate response.

00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.760
 They're moved with the plight of human beings.

00:01:05.579 --> 00:01:06.640
 But that's not me.

00:01:08.099 --> 00:01:09.140
 And so I learnt a long time ago

00:01:09.140 --> 00:01:12.200
 that I have to spend time meditating on the fate of the lost.

00:01:13.140 --> 00:01:16.719
 I have to understand the seriousness of their predicament.

00:01:17.980 --> 00:01:21.060
 God's diagnosis of life without Christ.

00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:23.939
 Of what I once was

00:01:23.939 --> 00:01:26.099
 and what they are.

00:01:26.099 --> 00:01:31.299
 And Ephesians 2 verses 1 to 3

00:01:31.299 --> 00:01:33.579
 is not really that easy to read, is it?

00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:34.459
 When you read it slowly.

00:01:36.199 --> 00:01:37.439
 But I want to say to you tonight

00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:38.099
 that as a church

00:01:38.099 --> 00:01:40.319
 we will never come up with the right solution

00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:43.000
 unless we get the right diagnosis.

00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:47.459
 And you were dead

00:01:47.459 --> 00:01:49.159
 in your trespasses and sins

00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:50.620
 in which you once walked

00:01:50.620 --> 00:01:52.620
 following the course of this world

00:01:52.620 --> 00:01:55.859
 following the prince of the power of the air

00:01:55.859 --> 00:01:57.200
 the spirit that is now at work

00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:58.500
 in the sons of disobedience

00:01:58.500 --> 00:02:00.420
 among whom we all once lived

00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:02.099
 in the passions of our flesh

00:02:02.099 --> 00:02:04.200
 carrying out the desires of the body and the mind

00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:06.400
 and were by nature children of wrath

00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:07.620
 like the rest of mankind.

00:02:07.620 --> 00:02:10.539
 If nothing else

00:02:10.539 --> 00:02:11.680
 the Bible will not pretend

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:13.939
 about the nature of humanity

00:02:13.939 --> 00:02:14.980
 outside of Christ.

00:02:16.099 --> 00:02:18.360
 It's a very graphic description

00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:19.900
 of the state of the lost

00:02:19.900 --> 00:02:20.500
 is it not?

00:02:21.860 --> 00:02:23.840
 And so let's slowly walk through this

00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:25.319
 verse 1 tells us

00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:26.280
 that the lost are

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:26.860
 verse 1

00:02:26.860 --> 00:02:27.620
 dead

00:02:27.620 --> 00:02:29.480
 in their transgressions

00:02:29.480 --> 00:02:30.379
 and sins.

00:02:30.379 --> 00:02:33.199
 I was blinded by the devil

00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:36.120
 born already ruined

00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:37.439
 stone cold dead

00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:38.960
 as I stepped out of the womb.

00:02:39.219 --> 00:02:40.280
 That's the first of three

00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:41.620
 Bob Dylan quotes tonight.

00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:42.680
 Not that I'm that much

00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:43.539
 of a Bob Dylan fan.

00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:45.780
 I was blinded by the devil

00:02:45.780 --> 00:02:47.060
 born already ruined

00:02:47.060 --> 00:02:48.280
 stone cold dead

00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:50.180
 as I stepped out of the womb.

00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:52.659
 This is a self-inflicted mortality

00:02:52.659 --> 00:02:55.039
 that's been brought about

00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:56.219
 by our rebellion

00:02:56.219 --> 00:02:57.340
 against the creator

00:02:57.340 --> 00:02:59.139
 dead in their transgressions

00:02:59.139 --> 00:03:00.359
 to transgress

00:03:00.359 --> 00:03:02.159
 is to cross a line

00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:03.339
 that you know is there.

00:03:04.659 --> 00:03:05.959
 So for the Jew

00:03:05.959 --> 00:03:07.919
 it would have been crossing

00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:09.179
 the law of the Lord.

00:03:10.459 --> 00:03:11.779
 For the non-Jew

00:03:11.779 --> 00:03:14.000
 it would have been violating

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:14.819
 the law that was written

00:03:14.819 --> 00:03:15.539
 on their hearts.

00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:17.439
 Either way

00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:19.000
 they're all culpable.

00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:21.599
 Though we were alive

00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:23.359
 without Christ

00:03:23.359 --> 00:03:24.939
 even though

00:03:24.939 --> 00:03:27.039
 we laughed and cried

00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:29.019
 we fell in and out of love

00:03:29.020 --> 00:03:30.920
 we experienced anger

00:03:30.920 --> 00:03:32.300
 we experienced jealousy

00:03:32.300 --> 00:03:34.620
 we did a gracious thing

00:03:34.620 --> 00:03:35.939
 a kind thing here

00:03:35.939 --> 00:03:37.520
 a thoughtful thing there

00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:38.680
 the bottom line is

00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:39.939
 until we came to Christ

00:03:39.939 --> 00:03:40.800
 we were certified

00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:41.740
 can you see it?

00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:42.800
 Spiritually dead.

00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:45.540
 The logic of the Bible

00:03:45.540 --> 00:03:46.240
 is very blunt.

00:03:47.480 --> 00:03:48.400
 That the wages of sin

00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:49.020
 is death.

00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:51.040
 That is the pay packet

00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:52.140
 of the end of our life.

00:03:53.219 --> 00:03:54.219
 We were spiritually like

00:03:54.219 --> 00:03:55.360
 dead like Adam and Eve.

00:03:55.500 --> 00:03:56.080
 You know the moment

00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:57.460
 they rebelled against God

00:03:57.460 --> 00:03:59.140
 they died.

00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:00.800
 You might say physically

00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:01.360
 they didn't die

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:02.080
 but they were like

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:02.880
 a cut flower.

00:04:04.020 --> 00:04:04.820
 So you know when you

00:04:04.820 --> 00:04:06.180
 buy someone flowers

00:04:06.180 --> 00:04:07.580
 there is a glory

00:04:07.580 --> 00:04:08.200
 isn't there?

00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:09.280
 There's a glory

00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:10.060
 in those flowers

00:04:10.060 --> 00:04:11.120
 that is so beautiful

00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:12.340
 and yet those flowers

00:04:12.340 --> 00:04:13.640
 will soon crumble

00:04:13.640 --> 00:04:14.460
 and implode.

00:04:15.700 --> 00:04:16.900
 And spiritual death

00:04:16.900 --> 00:04:18.460
 leads to physical death

00:04:18.460 --> 00:04:19.480
 that culminates

00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:20.420
 in the second death.

00:04:20.420 --> 00:04:22.460
 And as you know

00:04:22.460 --> 00:04:23.060
 the one thing

00:04:23.060 --> 00:04:24.080
 that you cannot have

00:04:24.080 --> 00:04:25.060
 with a dead person

00:04:25.060 --> 00:04:26.060
 is a relationship.

00:04:28.020 --> 00:04:28.920
 The relationship

00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:29.660
 is over.

00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:32.199
 You have memories

00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:33.780
 you have precious memories

00:04:33.780 --> 00:04:35.200
 but no relationship.

00:04:36.700 --> 00:04:37.439
 And God is saying

00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:38.220
 that is what

00:04:38.220 --> 00:04:39.680
 every non-Christian

00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:40.800
 is to me

00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:41.840
 in that sense.

00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:44.139
 I keep them alive

00:04:44.139 --> 00:04:46.240
 but I have no fellowship

00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:46.620
 with them.

00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:48.240
 And that is why

00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:49.939
 funerals are so painful

00:04:49.939 --> 00:04:50.500
 aren't they?

00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:53.740
 I know of a man

00:04:53.740 --> 00:04:54.400
 who became a Christian

00:04:54.400 --> 00:04:55.860
 from an Orthodox Jewish family

00:04:55.860 --> 00:04:56.519
 when a student

00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:59.220
 it was very shameful

00:04:59.220 --> 00:05:00.019
 for his family.

00:05:01.259 --> 00:05:02.840
 His father got so upset

00:05:02.840 --> 00:05:03.740
 that he took out

00:05:03.740 --> 00:05:04.540
 a death notice

00:05:04.540 --> 00:05:05.480
 in the local paper

00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:06.579
 because as far

00:05:06.579 --> 00:05:07.400
 as he was concerned

00:05:07.400 --> 00:05:08.699
 his son was as good

00:05:08.699 --> 00:05:09.220
 as dead.

00:05:11.060 --> 00:05:12.199
 It's such a profound

00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:12.900
 diagnosis

00:05:12.900 --> 00:05:14.680
 dead in our transgressions.

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:15.560
 It undercuts

00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:16.079
 doesn't it?

00:05:16.180 --> 00:05:16.900
 Any attempt

00:05:16.899 --> 00:05:18.679
 at thinking

00:05:18.679 --> 00:05:19.599
 human performance

00:05:19.599 --> 00:05:20.500
 will get you anywhere.

00:05:22.039 --> 00:05:22.959
 It explains

00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:23.839
 the need

00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:24.879
 why the lost

00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:26.439
 need to be born again

00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:27.039
 doesn't it?

00:05:28.219 --> 00:05:29.199
 It reminds you

00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:29.979
 that nothing less

00:05:29.979 --> 00:05:31.000
 than a total work

00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:31.500
 of God

00:05:31.500 --> 00:05:32.019
 in the life

00:05:32.019 --> 00:05:32.679
 of an unbeliever

00:05:32.679 --> 00:05:33.539
 is what is required.

00:05:34.939 --> 00:05:35.679
 It is not

00:05:35.679 --> 00:05:36.339
 as though

00:05:36.339 --> 00:05:37.679
 God takes

00:05:37.679 --> 00:05:38.939
 99 steps

00:05:38.939 --> 00:05:39.859
 and you take

00:05:39.859 --> 00:05:40.359
 one.

00:05:41.159 --> 00:05:41.739
 It is a work

00:05:41.739 --> 00:05:42.139
 of God

00:05:42.139 --> 00:05:42.560
 from beginning

00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:43.039
 to end.

00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:45.780
 Secondly

00:05:45.780 --> 00:05:46.280
 the lost

00:05:46.280 --> 00:05:46.840
 are described

00:05:46.840 --> 00:05:47.760
 as followers

00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:48.420
 of the ways

00:05:48.420 --> 00:05:49.240
 of this world

00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:51.480
 in which you

00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:51.939
 once walked

00:05:51.939 --> 00:05:52.700
 following the course

00:05:52.700 --> 00:05:53.080
 of the world

00:05:53.080 --> 00:05:53.720
 verse 2.

00:05:55.060 --> 00:05:56.439
 The problem

00:05:56.439 --> 00:05:57.600
 is not just

00:05:57.600 --> 00:05:58.360
 internally

00:05:58.360 --> 00:05:59.680
 it is externally.

00:06:01.140 --> 00:06:02.220
 It is the environment

00:06:02.220 --> 00:06:03.320
 of which we are a part.

00:06:05.100 --> 00:06:05.820
 It was Jesus

00:06:05.820 --> 00:06:06.379
 said

00:06:06.379 --> 00:06:07.060
 the world

00:06:07.060 --> 00:06:07.800
 does not

00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:08.860
 hate you

00:06:08.860 --> 00:06:09.580
 but it hates

00:06:09.580 --> 00:06:10.200
 me.

00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:12.379
 And so

00:06:12.379 --> 00:06:13.039
 being deemed

00:06:13.039 --> 00:06:13.699
 to be followers

00:06:13.699 --> 00:06:14.339
 of this world

00:06:14.339 --> 00:06:14.899
 you understand

00:06:14.899 --> 00:06:15.519
 that it is both

00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:16.819
 personal rebellion

00:06:16.819 --> 00:06:17.680
 and corporate.

00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:19.899
 It is collective

00:06:19.899 --> 00:06:21.039
 not just individual.

00:06:21.860 --> 00:06:22.219
 We do not

00:06:22.219 --> 00:06:22.879
 stand alone.

00:06:24.019 --> 00:06:24.599
 We are part

00:06:24.599 --> 00:06:25.319
 of something bigger.

00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:27.360
 We sided

00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:27.919
 with the enemy.

00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:29.839
 We do not

00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:30.599
 rebel alone.

00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:32.919
 John says

00:06:32.919 --> 00:06:33.459
 though the world

00:06:33.459 --> 00:06:34.039
 was made

00:06:34.039 --> 00:06:35.019
 through him

00:06:35.019 --> 00:06:37.139
 it did not

00:06:37.139 --> 00:06:38.000
 recognise him.

00:06:38.719 --> 00:06:39.079
 In fact

00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:39.839
 it kills him.

00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:42.879
 And then in verse 3

00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:43.920
 the lost are described

00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:44.539
 as those

00:06:44.539 --> 00:06:45.759
 who have

00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:46.339
 developed

00:06:46.339 --> 00:06:47.079
 a loyalty

00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:48.019
 to the evil one.

00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:48.719
 It is a strange

00:06:48.719 --> 00:06:49.399
 verse isn't it?

00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:52.399
 Verse 2

00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:53.420
 following the prince

00:06:53.420 --> 00:06:53.860
 of the power

00:06:53.860 --> 00:06:54.339
 of the air

00:06:54.339 --> 00:06:55.199
 the middle of the verse

00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:56.439
 following the prince

00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:57.039
 of the power

00:06:57.039 --> 00:06:57.459
 of the air

00:06:57.459 --> 00:06:57.959
 the spirit

00:06:57.959 --> 00:06:58.419
 that is now

00:06:58.419 --> 00:06:58.800
 at work

00:06:58.800 --> 00:06:59.240
 in the sons

00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:00.079
 of disobedience.

00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:03.099
 And so

00:07:03.099 --> 00:07:03.620
 this difficult

00:07:03.620 --> 00:07:04.240
 truth is that

00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:04.839
 the lost

00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:05.879
 are active

00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:06.539
 members

00:07:06.539 --> 00:07:07.240
 in the kingdom

00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:08.019
 of darkness

00:07:08.019 --> 00:07:09.519
 from which

00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:10.060
 they need

00:07:10.060 --> 00:07:11.419
 to be rescued

00:07:11.419 --> 00:07:13.159
 and moved

00:07:13.159 --> 00:07:13.799
 into the kingdom

00:07:13.799 --> 00:07:14.740
 of the sun.

00:07:16.939 --> 00:07:17.439
 And so

00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:17.939
 what is really

00:07:17.939 --> 00:07:18.579
 shocking about

00:07:18.579 --> 00:07:19.379
 this diagnosis

00:07:19.379 --> 00:07:19.919
 is that you

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:20.579
 don't have to be

00:07:20.579 --> 00:07:21.399
 in the occult

00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:22.639
 to be in the occult.

00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:25.339
 You just be yourself.

00:07:25.339 --> 00:07:29.019
 And you are

00:07:29.019 --> 00:07:29.560
 part of the

00:07:29.560 --> 00:07:29.919
 kingdom of

00:07:29.919 --> 00:07:30.339
 darkness.

00:07:32.719 --> 00:07:33.359
 We are not

00:07:33.359 --> 00:07:34.079
 just lost.

00:07:35.619 --> 00:07:36.299
 We are not

00:07:36.299 --> 00:07:36.879
 even just

00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:38.239
 willfully lost.

00:07:40.179 --> 00:07:40.919
 Outside of

00:07:40.919 --> 00:07:41.299
 Christ

00:07:41.299 --> 00:07:42.019
 there is a

00:07:42.019 --> 00:07:42.479
 demonic

00:07:42.479 --> 00:07:43.099
 element

00:07:43.099 --> 00:07:43.959
 to humanity.

00:07:46.559 --> 00:07:47.139
 Bob Dylan

00:07:47.139 --> 00:07:47.739
 said you may

00:07:47.739 --> 00:07:48.439
 be ambassador

00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:48.839
 to England

00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:49.439
 or France.

00:07:50.459 --> 00:07:50.779
 You may like

00:07:50.779 --> 00:07:51.159
 to gamble.

00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:51.899
 You may like

00:07:51.899 --> 00:07:52.299
 to dance.

00:07:53.359 --> 00:07:53.739
 You may be

00:07:53.739 --> 00:07:54.219
 the heavyweight

00:07:54.219 --> 00:07:54.759
 champion of the

00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:55.099
 world.

00:07:55.339 --> 00:07:55.899
 You may be

00:07:55.899 --> 00:07:56.500
 a socialite

00:07:56.500 --> 00:07:56.959
 with a long

00:07:56.959 --> 00:07:57.359
 string of

00:07:57.359 --> 00:07:57.699
 pearls.

00:07:58.339 --> 00:07:58.739
 But you are

00:07:58.739 --> 00:07:59.139
 going to have

00:07:59.139 --> 00:07:59.539
 to serve

00:07:59.539 --> 00:08:00.039
 somebody.

00:08:01.060 --> 00:08:01.639
 Maybe the

00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:02.859
 devil or

00:08:02.859 --> 00:08:03.339
 maybe the

00:08:03.339 --> 00:08:03.619
 Lord.

00:08:04.500 --> 00:08:04.879
 But you are

00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:05.219
 going to have

00:08:05.219 --> 00:08:05.579
 to serve

00:08:05.579 --> 00:08:05.939
 somebody.

00:08:06.119 --> 00:08:06.439
 Bob Dylan

00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:06.839
 was right.

00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:09.739
 Jesus said

00:08:09.739 --> 00:08:10.839
 if you are

00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:11.699
 not for

00:08:11.699 --> 00:08:13.479
 me you are

00:08:13.479 --> 00:08:14.059
 against me.

00:08:15.479 --> 00:08:15.659
 Do you

00:08:15.659 --> 00:08:15.919
 know that

00:08:15.919 --> 00:08:17.159
 proverbial fence

00:08:17.159 --> 00:08:17.620
 that people

00:08:17.620 --> 00:08:18.219
 talk about

00:08:18.219 --> 00:08:18.899
 that some

00:08:18.899 --> 00:08:19.599
 people think

00:08:19.599 --> 00:08:19.859
 they are

00:08:19.859 --> 00:08:20.479
 sitting on.

00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:20.859
 I am

00:08:20.859 --> 00:08:21.319
 sitting on

00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:21.859
 the fence

00:08:21.859 --> 00:08:22.439
 as it

00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:24.639
 concerns

00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:25.019
 Jesus.

00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:25.779
 The devil

00:08:25.779 --> 00:08:26.479
 claims that

00:08:26.479 --> 00:08:26.919
 fence.

00:08:29.019 --> 00:08:29.159
 Do you

00:08:29.159 --> 00:08:29.379
 remember what

00:08:29.379 --> 00:08:29.839
 Jesus said

00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:30.139
 in Matthew

00:08:30.139 --> 00:08:30.839
 25 about

00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:31.139
 the great

00:08:31.139 --> 00:08:31.459
 judgment

00:08:31.459 --> 00:08:32.120
 depart from

00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:32.699
 me into

00:08:32.699 --> 00:08:33.120
 hell.

00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:35.159
 That place

00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:35.899
 prepared for

00:08:35.899 --> 00:08:36.419
 the devil

00:08:36.419 --> 00:08:36.960
 and his

00:08:36.960 --> 00:08:37.460
 angels.

00:08:37.460 --> 00:08:40.080
 that's the

00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:40.639
 first reason

00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:41.040
 why hell

00:08:41.040 --> 00:08:41.620
 was created

00:08:41.620 --> 00:08:43.920
 and anyone

00:08:43.920 --> 00:08:44.420
 who will

00:08:44.420 --> 00:08:45.220
 remain loyal

00:08:45.220 --> 00:08:45.560
 to the

00:08:45.560 --> 00:08:46.900
 devil in

00:08:46.900 --> 00:08:47.680
 opposition to

00:08:47.680 --> 00:08:48.180
 Jesus.

00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:51.060
 And you

00:08:51.060 --> 00:08:51.660
 notice here

00:08:51.660 --> 00:08:52.300
 the work of

00:08:52.300 --> 00:08:52.720
 the devil

00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:54.500
 the work of

00:08:54.500 --> 00:08:54.920
 the evil

00:08:54.920 --> 00:08:55.460
 one how it's

00:08:55.460 --> 00:08:56.160
 described with

00:08:56.160 --> 00:08:56.720
 respect to

00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:57.300
 the unbeliever

00:08:57.300 --> 00:08:57.759
 the person

00:08:57.759 --> 00:08:58.400
 who is lost

00:08:58.400 --> 00:08:59.280
 the spirit

00:08:59.280 --> 00:09:00.040
 who is now

00:09:00.040 --> 00:09:00.920
 at work

00:09:00.920 --> 00:09:01.840
 as to

00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:03.400
 the sons

00:09:03.400 --> 00:09:04.240
 of disobedience.

00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.860
 And so

00:09:07.860 --> 00:09:08.299
 there is a

00:09:08.299 --> 00:09:08.820
 sense isn't

00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:09.320
 there when

00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:10.360
 somebody becomes

00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:10.919
 a Christian

00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:12.080
 there is a

00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:12.519
 sense in

00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:13.399
 which every

00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:14.639
 conversion

00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:15.120
 is an

00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:15.799
 exorcism.

00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:18.740
 Do we

00:09:18.740 --> 00:09:19.120
 believe in

00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:19.940
 exorcisms in

00:09:19.940 --> 00:09:20.460
 this church?

00:09:20.620 --> 00:09:21.060
 We certainly

00:09:21.060 --> 00:09:21.419
 do.

00:09:23.180 --> 00:09:23.659
 Where the

00:09:23.659 --> 00:09:24.279
 spirit

00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:25.600
 the ruler

00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:25.940
 of the

00:09:25.940 --> 00:09:26.419
 spirit of

00:09:26.419 --> 00:09:26.860
 the age

00:09:26.860 --> 00:09:29.000
 who once

00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:29.379
 was in

00:09:29.379 --> 00:09:29.659
 me

00:09:29.659 --> 00:09:31.500
 who I

00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:32.060
 was part

00:09:32.060 --> 00:09:32.399
 of his

00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:32.779
 kingdom

00:09:32.779 --> 00:09:33.919
 I was a

00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:34.699
 willing servant

00:09:34.699 --> 00:09:36.240
 I was never

00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:36.759
 interested in

00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:37.139
 the horror

00:09:37.139 --> 00:09:37.679
 world

00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:38.819
 horror films

00:09:38.819 --> 00:09:39.579
 freak me

00:09:39.579 --> 00:09:39.860
 out

00:09:39.860 --> 00:09:41.620
 the satanic

00:09:41.620 --> 00:09:42.679
 Ouija boards

00:09:42.679 --> 00:09:43.299
 they scare

00:09:43.299 --> 00:09:43.519
 the living

00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:43.939
 day that's

00:09:43.939 --> 00:09:44.199
 on me

00:09:44.199 --> 00:09:46.120
 I did not

00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:46.439
 have a

00:09:46.439 --> 00:09:47.059
 conscious

00:09:47.059 --> 00:09:47.799
 worship

00:09:47.799 --> 00:09:48.559
 attitude to

00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:48.860
 Satan

00:09:48.860 --> 00:09:51.139
 but by being

00:09:51.139 --> 00:09:51.720
 against

00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:52.339
 Christ

00:09:52.339 --> 00:09:54.519
 I was

00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:54.959
 actually a

00:09:54.959 --> 00:09:55.339
 servant of

00:09:55.339 --> 00:09:55.559
 Satan

00:09:55.559 --> 00:09:58.179
 his spirit

00:09:58.179 --> 00:09:59.139
 was actually

00:09:59.139 --> 00:10:00.139
 operating within

00:10:00.139 --> 00:10:00.759
 me I didn't

00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:01.220
 know it

00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:03.660
 until that

00:10:03.660 --> 00:10:04.379
 time when

00:10:04.379 --> 00:10:04.860
 the spirit

00:10:04.860 --> 00:10:05.160
 of the

00:10:05.160 --> 00:10:05.940
 evil one

00:10:05.940 --> 00:10:07.019
 departs

00:10:07.019 --> 00:10:08.600
 from us

00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:09.259
 internally and

00:10:09.259 --> 00:10:09.800
 the spirit

00:10:09.800 --> 00:10:10.200
 of God

00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:10.700
 takes his

00:10:10.700 --> 00:10:11.160
 place

00:10:11.160 --> 00:10:12.080
 Jesus says

00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:12.540
 wonderfully

00:10:12.540 --> 00:10:13.620
 he who is

00:10:13.620 --> 00:10:14.540
 in you

00:10:14.540 --> 00:10:15.540
 if you are

00:10:15.540 --> 00:10:15.980
 in Christ

00:10:15.980 --> 00:10:16.440
 he who is

00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:17.300
 in you

00:10:17.300 --> 00:10:19.700
 is greater

00:10:19.700 --> 00:10:20.060
 than he who

00:10:20.060 --> 00:10:20.360
 is in the

00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:20.720
 world

00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:22.820
 and leads

00:10:22.820 --> 00:10:23.200
 us from

00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:23.720
 one glory

00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:24.200
 to another

00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:27.820
 it's very

00:10:27.820 --> 00:10:28.279
 depressing

00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:28.980
 and very

00:10:28.980 --> 00:10:29.399
 heavy

00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:31.519
 and I

00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:31.799
 wish I

00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:32.059
 could tell

00:10:32.059 --> 00:10:32.220
 you a

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:32.399
 funny

00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:32.679
 story

00:10:32.679 --> 00:10:32.919
 at this

00:10:32.919 --> 00:10:33.159
 point

00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:33.620
 but I

00:10:33.620 --> 00:10:33.779
 don't

00:10:33.779 --> 00:10:34.039
 have a

00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:34.199
 funny

00:10:34.199 --> 00:10:34.620
 story

00:10:34.620 --> 00:10:38.659
 verse 3

00:10:38.659 --> 00:10:39.919
 we have the

00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:40.480
 world and the

00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:41.019
 devil and now

00:10:41.019 --> 00:10:41.459
 the third

00:10:41.459 --> 00:10:41.959
 part of the

00:10:41.959 --> 00:10:42.559
 unholy

00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:43.220
 trinity we

00:10:43.220 --> 00:10:43.579
 have the

00:10:43.579 --> 00:10:44.079
 flesh

00:10:44.079 --> 00:10:46.980
 we're told

00:10:46.980 --> 00:10:47.399
 that our

00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:48.480
 orientation was

00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:49.240
 completely

00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:51.879
 self

00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:52.579
 observed

00:10:52.579 --> 00:10:53.120
 self

00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:53.939
 indulgent

00:10:53.939 --> 00:10:54.480
 self

00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:55.019
 centred

00:10:55.019 --> 00:10:55.720
 verse 3

00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:56.500
 a man

00:10:56.500 --> 00:10:57.200
 whom we

00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:58.060
 all once

00:10:58.060 --> 00:10:58.399
 lived

00:10:58.399 --> 00:10:58.840
 in the

00:10:58.840 --> 00:10:59.240
 passions

00:10:59.240 --> 00:10:59.940
 of our

00:10:59.940 --> 00:11:00.320
 flesh

00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:01.120
 carrying out

00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:01.720
 the desires

00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:02.180
 of the

00:11:02.180 --> 00:11:02.540
 body

00:11:02.540 --> 00:11:03.279
 and the

00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:03.779
 mind

00:11:03.779 --> 00:11:05.700
 all of us

00:11:05.700 --> 00:11:07.680
 there's no

00:11:07.680 --> 00:11:08.840
 us and

00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:09.120
 them

00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:09.740
 tonight

00:11:09.740 --> 00:11:10.800
 it's just

00:11:10.800 --> 00:11:11.180
 us

00:11:11.180 --> 00:11:14.120
 we were in

00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:14.660
 the same boat

00:11:14.660 --> 00:11:15.180
 Jew and

00:11:15.180 --> 00:11:15.720
 Gentile

00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:16.639
 male and

00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:17.019
 female

00:11:17.019 --> 00:11:17.639
 black and

00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:17.960
 white

00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:20.440
 it's very

00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:21.259
 very inclusive

00:11:21.259 --> 00:11:23.679
 as far back

00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:24.080
 as Genesis

00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:24.720
 chapter 6

00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:25.240
 verse 5

00:11:25.240 --> 00:11:25.600
 there is

00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:26.559
 this profound

00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:27.639
 assessment of

00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:28.379
 human nature

00:11:28.379 --> 00:11:29.480
 that every

00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:30.319
 inclination of

00:11:30.319 --> 00:11:30.980
 the heart of

00:11:30.980 --> 00:11:32.159
 man was

00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:33.080
 only evil

00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:33.740
 all of the

00:11:33.740 --> 00:11:34.139
 time

00:11:34.139 --> 00:11:36.860
 and God's

00:11:36.860 --> 00:11:37.299
 heart was

00:11:37.299 --> 00:11:37.919
 broken with

00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:38.500
 pain because

00:11:38.500 --> 00:11:38.759
 of our

00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:39.240
 treatment

00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:41.340
 complete

00:11:41.340 --> 00:11:42.419
 thorough

00:11:42.419 --> 00:11:43.860
 wholesale

00:11:43.860 --> 00:11:44.379
 rebellion

00:11:44.379 --> 00:11:46.299
 and it's a

00:11:46.299 --> 00:11:46.639
 profound

00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:47.539
 diagnosis

00:11:47.539 --> 00:11:50.000
 gratifying

00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:50.879
 the desires

00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:51.240
 of the

00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:51.500
 sinful

00:11:51.500 --> 00:11:51.919
 nature

00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:52.720
 indulging

00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:53.039
 in the

00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:53.460
 desires

00:11:53.460 --> 00:11:53.720
 of a

00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:54.059
 rebellion

00:11:54.059 --> 00:11:54.580
 heart

00:11:54.580 --> 00:11:57.340
 there are

00:11:57.340 --> 00:11:57.779
 times out

00:11:57.779 --> 00:11:58.139
 there in

00:11:58.139 --> 00:11:58.559
 the Christian

00:11:58.559 --> 00:11:59.059
 life when

00:11:59.059 --> 00:11:59.439
 the penny

00:11:59.439 --> 00:12:00.000
 drops

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:00.860
 on this

00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:03.039
 by the

00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:03.500
 spirit of

00:12:03.500 --> 00:12:03.779
 God

00:12:03.779 --> 00:12:04.179
 the people

00:12:04.179 --> 00:12:04.620
 of God

00:12:04.620 --> 00:12:05.000
 get an

00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:05.480
 insight

00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:06.299
 into it

00:12:06.299 --> 00:12:08.360
 you see it

00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:08.740
 in Isaiah

00:12:08.740 --> 00:12:08.980
 do you

00:12:08.980 --> 00:12:09.159
 remember

00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:10.059
 he encounters

00:12:10.059 --> 00:12:10.980
 the revelation

00:12:10.980 --> 00:12:11.700
 of God

00:12:11.700 --> 00:12:12.860
 in the

00:12:12.860 --> 00:12:13.240
 temple

00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:14.899
 and the

00:12:14.899 --> 00:12:15.440
 angels are

00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:15.940
 saying to

00:12:15.940 --> 00:12:16.299
 one another

00:12:16.299 --> 00:12:16.779
 he is

00:12:16.779 --> 00:12:17.159
 holy

00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:17.600
 he is

00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:17.980
 holy

00:12:17.980 --> 00:12:18.440
 he is

00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:18.799
 holy

00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:19.600
 and his

00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:20.259
 response is

00:12:20.259 --> 00:12:20.700
 whoa

00:12:20.700 --> 00:12:21.500
 woe is

00:12:21.500 --> 00:12:21.780
 me

00:12:21.780 --> 00:12:22.660
 for I

00:12:22.660 --> 00:12:22.820
 am

00:12:22.820 --> 00:12:23.160
 ruined

00:12:23.160 --> 00:12:23.759
 literally

00:12:23.759 --> 00:12:24.540
 woe is

00:12:24.540 --> 00:12:24.660
 me

00:12:24.660 --> 00:12:24.920
 for I

00:12:24.920 --> 00:12:25.040
 am

00:12:25.040 --> 00:12:25.500
 lost

00:12:25.500 --> 00:12:27.140
 for I

00:12:27.140 --> 00:12:27.180
 am

00:12:27.180 --> 00:12:27.520
 a man

00:12:27.520 --> 00:12:27.620
 of

00:12:27.620 --> 00:12:28.040
 unclean

00:12:28.040 --> 00:12:28.340
 lips

00:12:28.340 --> 00:12:28.640
 and I

00:12:28.640 --> 00:12:28.879
 live

00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:29.140
 amongst

00:12:29.140 --> 00:12:29.280
 the

00:12:29.280 --> 00:12:29.460
 people

00:12:29.460 --> 00:12:29.600
 of

00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:29.980
 unclean

00:12:29.980 --> 00:12:30.340
 lips

00:12:30.340 --> 00:12:31.940
 and you

00:12:31.940 --> 00:12:32.240
 see it

00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:32.600
 in Peter

00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:32.920
 when he

00:12:32.920 --> 00:12:33.379
 encounters

00:12:33.379 --> 00:12:34.040
 the authority

00:12:34.040 --> 00:12:34.580
 of Jesus

00:12:34.580 --> 00:12:35.259
 go away

00:12:35.259 --> 00:12:35.720
 from me

00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:36.120
 for I

00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:36.480
 am a

00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:36.920
 sinful

00:12:36.920 --> 00:12:37.600
 man

00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:40.600
 and Jesus

00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:40.900
 says

00:12:40.900 --> 00:12:41.320
 everyone

00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:42.060
 who sins

00:12:42.060 --> 00:12:42.820
 is enslaved

00:12:42.820 --> 00:12:43.379
 to sin

00:12:43.379 --> 00:12:43.900
 and what

00:12:43.900 --> 00:12:44.480
 the world

00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:45.040
 calls

00:12:45.040 --> 00:12:45.860
 freedom

00:12:45.860 --> 00:12:49.100
 is

00:12:49.100 --> 00:12:49.480
 simply

00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:49.960
 God

00:12:49.960 --> 00:12:50.600
 handing

00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:51.060
 us

00:12:51.060 --> 00:12:51.460
 over

00:12:51.460 --> 00:12:51.899
 to our

00:12:51.899 --> 00:12:52.220
 self

00:12:52.220 --> 00:12:52.620
 centered

00:12:52.620 --> 00:12:53.220
 natures

00:12:53.220 --> 00:12:53.800
 and then

00:12:53.800 --> 00:12:54.200
 allowing

00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:54.539
 us to

00:12:54.539 --> 00:12:54.899
 reap what

00:12:54.899 --> 00:12:55.379
 we sow

00:12:55.379 --> 00:12:55.759
 and we

00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:56.200
 call it

00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:56.680
 freedom

00:12:56.680 --> 00:13:00.800
 the inherent

00:13:00.800 --> 00:13:01.440
 goodness

00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:02.300
 of humanity

00:13:02.300 --> 00:13:02.879
 is a

00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:03.360
 myth

00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:05.899
 the evidence

00:13:05.899 --> 00:13:06.440
 is all

00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:07.100
 around you

00:13:07.100 --> 00:13:07.940
 take a

00:13:07.940 --> 00:13:08.220
 look

00:13:08.220 --> 00:13:11.539
 what was

00:13:11.539 --> 00:13:11.820
 it that

00:13:11.820 --> 00:13:12.440
 persuaded you

00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:12.680
 that the

00:13:12.680 --> 00:13:13.080
 Bible is

00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:13.360
 the word

00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:13.820
 of God

00:13:13.820 --> 00:13:17.140
 what was

00:13:17.140 --> 00:13:17.420
 it that

00:13:17.420 --> 00:13:17.980
 persuaded you

00:13:17.980 --> 00:13:18.200
 that the

00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:18.500
 Bible is

00:13:18.500 --> 00:13:18.740
 the word

00:13:18.740 --> 00:13:19.120
 of God

00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:20.780
 it's a

00:13:20.780 --> 00:13:21.100
 lady I

00:13:21.100 --> 00:13:21.379
 know

00:13:21.379 --> 00:13:22.060
 for her

00:13:22.060 --> 00:13:22.300
 it was

00:13:22.300 --> 00:13:23.460
 Psalm 116

00:13:23.460 --> 00:13:24.100
 verse 11

00:13:24.100 --> 00:13:24.540
 anyone know

00:13:24.540 --> 00:13:24.800
 what that

00:13:24.800 --> 00:13:25.379
 verse says

00:13:25.379 --> 00:13:27.300
 all men

00:13:27.300 --> 00:13:27.980
 are liars

00:13:27.980 --> 00:13:30.780
 that's what

00:13:30.780 --> 00:13:31.200
 she read

00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:31.460
 and she

00:13:31.460 --> 00:13:31.960
 said that

00:13:31.960 --> 00:13:32.240
 is what

00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:32.920
 convinced me

00:13:32.920 --> 00:13:33.379
 that the

00:13:33.379 --> 00:13:33.660
 word of

00:13:33.660 --> 00:13:33.940
 God is

00:13:33.940 --> 00:13:34.200
 true

00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:35.680
 you can

00:13:35.680 --> 00:13:36.100
 translate

00:13:36.100 --> 00:13:36.460
 that as

00:13:36.460 --> 00:13:37.379
 all human

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:38.060
 beings

00:13:38.060 --> 00:13:39.760
 are liars

00:13:39.760 --> 00:13:40.040
 but it

00:13:40.040 --> 00:13:40.420
 was all

00:13:40.420 --> 00:13:40.780
 men are

00:13:40.780 --> 00:13:41.100
 liars

00:13:41.100 --> 00:13:41.560
 that convinced

00:13:41.560 --> 00:13:41.860
 her of the

00:13:41.860 --> 00:13:42.160
 truth of

00:13:42.160 --> 00:13:42.340
 the word

00:13:42.340 --> 00:13:42.780
 of God

00:13:42.779 --> 00:13:45.299
 she read

00:13:45.299 --> 00:13:45.600
 that and

00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:45.899
 she knew

00:13:45.899 --> 00:13:46.120
 that the

00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:46.439
 Bible was

00:13:46.439 --> 00:13:46.779
 telling the

00:13:46.779 --> 00:13:47.019
 truth

00:13:47.019 --> 00:13:47.519
 she felt

00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:47.759
 that the

00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:48.139
 Bible had

00:13:48.139 --> 00:13:48.539
 understood

00:13:48.539 --> 00:13:49.000
 the human

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:49.519
 condition

00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:50.980
 for what

00:13:50.980 --> 00:13:51.459
 it is

00:13:51.459 --> 00:13:54.220
 despite all

00:13:54.220 --> 00:13:54.939
 the personal

00:13:54.939 --> 00:13:55.539

 to your

00:14:22.419 --> 00:14:23.039
 problems is

 you've got

00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:27.439
 to be true

00:14:27.439 --> 00:14:28.220
 to yourself

00:14:28.220 --> 00:14:30.579
 trust me

00:14:30.579 --> 00:14:32.120
 people get

00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:32.559
 so upset

00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:32.839
 don't they

00:14:32.839 --> 00:14:33.100
 when we

00:14:33.100 --> 00:14:33.500
 don't trust

00:14:33.500 --> 00:14:33.759
 them

00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:36.039
 do I trust

00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:36.279
 you

00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:37.379
 of course

00:14:37.379 --> 00:14:37.659
 not

00:14:37.659 --> 00:14:38.179
 when we

00:14:38.179 --> 00:14:38.480
 don't trust

00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:38.799
 me

00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:39.500
 we're so

00:14:39.500 --> 00:14:39.799
 naive

00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:40.179
 aren't we

00:14:40.179 --> 00:14:41.399
 we know

00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:41.679
 don't we

00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:41.899
 what the

00:14:41.899 --> 00:14:42.419
 human condition

00:14:42.419 --> 00:14:42.959
 is like

00:14:42.959 --> 00:14:46.599
 John

00:14:46.599 --> 00:14:46.859
 Stoff

00:14:46.859 --> 00:14:47.659
 said if

00:14:47.659 --> 00:14:47.839
 you were

00:14:47.839 --> 00:14:48.039
 to look

00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:48.359
 into my

00:14:48.359 --> 00:14:48.659
 heart

00:14:48.659 --> 00:14:48.879
 you would

00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:49.219
 spit in

00:14:49.219 --> 00:14:49.699
 my face

00:14:49.699 --> 00:14:52.500
 and if

00:14:52.500 --> 00:14:52.699
 I were

00:14:52.699 --> 00:14:52.919
 to look

00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:53.279
 into your

00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:53.519
 heart

00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:53.819
 I'd be

00:14:53.819 --> 00:14:54.219
 tempted to

00:14:54.219 --> 00:14:54.539
 spit in

00:14:54.539 --> 00:14:55.099
 your face

00:14:55.099 --> 00:14:57.059
 and that's

00:14:57.059 --> 00:14:57.439
 with the

00:14:57.439 --> 00:14:57.779
 spirit of

00:14:57.779 --> 00:14:58.019
 God

00:14:58.019 --> 00:14:58.500
 isn't it

00:14:58.500 --> 00:15:02.179
 now we

00:15:02.179 --> 00:15:02.379
 need to

00:15:02.379 --> 00:15:02.740
 think about

00:15:02.740 --> 00:15:02.879
 this

00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:03.019
 really

00:15:03.019 --> 00:15:03.519
 hard

00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:03.959
 because

00:15:03.959 --> 00:15:04.839
 why do

00:15:04.839 --> 00:15:05.279
 we find

00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:05.579
 this

00:15:05.579 --> 00:15:06.259
 diagnosis

00:15:06.259 --> 00:15:06.580
 of the

00:15:06.580 --> 00:15:06.799
 human

00:15:06.799 --> 00:15:07.200
 condition

00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:07.659
 so

00:15:07.659 --> 00:15:08.120
 difficult

00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:08.899
 why are

00:15:08.899 --> 00:15:09.059
 you

00:15:09.059 --> 00:15:09.360
 thinking

00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:09.759
 this is

00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:10.159
 so

00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:10.720
 hard

00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:11.240
 tonight

00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:14.059
 and part

00:15:14.059 --> 00:15:14.259
 of the

00:15:14.259 --> 00:15:14.779
 reason is

00:15:14.779 --> 00:15:15.200
 there are

00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:15.419
 some

00:15:15.419 --> 00:15:15.939
 really

00:15:15.939 --> 00:15:16.519
 really

00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:17.039
 nice

00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:17.700
 non-Christians

00:15:17.700 --> 00:15:18.080
 out there

00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:18.460
 aren't they

00:15:18.460 --> 00:15:21.819
 in fact

00:15:21.819 --> 00:15:22.159
 they put

00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:22.460
 Christians

00:15:22.460 --> 00:15:22.659
 to the

00:15:22.659 --> 00:15:22.779
 chin

00:15:22.779 --> 00:15:22.980
 they put

00:15:22.980 --> 00:15:23.200
 me

00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:23.360
 to the

00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:23.460
 chin

00:15:23.460 --> 00:15:27.340
 and that

00:15:27.340 --> 00:15:27.600
 too is

00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:27.960
 part of

00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:28.360
 the evidence

00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:28.559
 you are

00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:28.819
 trying to

00:15:28.819 --> 00:15:29.139
 come to

00:15:29.139 --> 00:15:29.399
 terms

00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:29.700
 with

00:15:29.700 --> 00:15:32.460
 but you

00:15:32.460 --> 00:15:32.939
 don't

00:15:32.939 --> 00:15:33.340
 really

00:15:33.340 --> 00:15:33.799
 ever

00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:34.139
 see

00:15:34.139 --> 00:15:34.379
 the

00:15:34.379 --> 00:15:34.939
 darkness

00:15:34.939 --> 00:15:35.360
 of the

00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:35.600
 human

00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:36.100
 condition

00:15:36.100 --> 00:15:37.680
 the

00:15:37.680 --> 00:15:38.040
 darkness

00:15:38.040 --> 00:15:38.320
 of the

00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:38.540
 human

00:15:38.540 --> 00:15:38.820
 heart

00:15:38.820 --> 00:15:39.120
 until

00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:39.279
 it

00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:39.680
 encounters

00:15:39.680 --> 00:15:39.960
 the

00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:40.460
 personal

00:15:40.460 --> 00:15:40.920
 claims

00:15:40.920 --> 00:15:41.139
 of the

00:15:41.139 --> 00:15:41.300
 Lord

00:15:41.300 --> 00:15:41.580
 Jesus

00:15:41.580 --> 00:15:45.360
 so I

00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:45.460
 was

00:15:45.460 --> 00:15:45.700
 talking

00:15:45.700 --> 00:15:45.940
 with

00:15:45.940 --> 00:15:46.500
 someone

00:15:46.500 --> 00:15:46.700
 I

00:15:46.700 --> 00:15:46.940
 know

00:15:46.940 --> 00:15:47.100
 the

00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:47.220
 other

00:15:47.220 --> 00:15:47.560
 day

00:15:47.560 --> 00:15:48.379
 and his

00:15:48.379 --> 00:15:48.659
 father

00:15:48.659 --> 00:15:49.019
 was a

00:15:49.019 --> 00:15:49.360
 lovely

00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:51.500
 man

00:15:51.500 --> 00:15:51.879
 the

00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:52.060
 man

00:15:52.060 --> 00:15:52.320
 was not

00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:52.420
 a

00:15:52.420 --> 00:15:52.639
 Christian

00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:52.800
 the

00:15:52.800 --> 00:15:53.040
 father

00:15:53.040 --> 00:15:54.759
 his son

00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:55.200
 had become

00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:55.620
 a Christian

00:15:55.620 --> 00:15:56.100
 and the

00:15:56.100 --> 00:15:56.340
 father

00:15:56.340 --> 00:15:56.700
 was

00:15:56.700 --> 00:15:57.259
 dying

00:15:57.259 --> 00:15:58.139
 his son

00:15:58.139 --> 00:15:58.700
 was at

00:15:58.700 --> 00:15:58.879
 his

00:15:58.879 --> 00:15:59.279
 father's

00:15:59.279 --> 00:15:59.820
 bedside

00:15:59.820 --> 00:16:00.180
 and he

00:16:00.180 --> 00:16:00.680
 pleaded

00:16:00.680 --> 00:16:01.019
 with his

00:16:01.019 --> 00:16:01.320
 dad

00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:01.860
 to accept

00:16:01.860 --> 00:16:02.139
 Jesus

00:16:02.139 --> 00:16:02.580
 Christ

00:16:02.580 --> 00:16:04.860
 and the

00:16:04.860 --> 00:16:05.060
 father

00:16:05.060 --> 00:16:05.300
 who I

00:16:05.300 --> 00:16:05.779
 knew of

00:16:05.779 --> 00:16:06.019
 and was

00:16:06.019 --> 00:16:06.439
 a lovely

00:16:06.439 --> 00:16:06.740
 guy

00:16:06.740 --> 00:16:07.100
 said

00:16:07.100 --> 00:16:07.579
 you

00:16:07.579 --> 00:16:08.299
 offend

00:16:08.299 --> 00:16:08.759
 me

00:16:08.759 --> 00:16:09.679
 by asking

00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:10.159
 me to

00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:10.620
 accept

00:16:10.620 --> 00:16:11.059
 someone

00:16:11.059 --> 00:16:11.360
 I've

00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:11.799
 rejected

00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:14.639
 you

00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:15.039
 offend

00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:15.720
 me

00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:17.620
 I'm

00:16:17.620 --> 00:16:17.819
 telling you

00:16:17.819 --> 00:16:18.459
 this man

00:16:18.459 --> 00:16:19.019
 was a

00:16:19.019 --> 00:16:20.100
 great guy

00:16:20.100 --> 00:16:20.679
 loved in the

00:16:20.679 --> 00:16:20.980
 office

00:16:20.980 --> 00:16:21.620
 a charitable

00:16:21.620 --> 00:16:22.100
 man

00:16:22.100 --> 00:16:24.000
 but you

00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:24.639
 don't see the

00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:25.279
 darkness of the

00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:25.819
 human heart

00:16:25.819 --> 00:16:26.220
 until it

00:16:26.220 --> 00:16:26.959
 encounters the

00:16:26.959 --> 00:16:27.480
 claims of

00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:27.819
 Jesus

00:16:27.819 --> 00:16:28.559
 and then it

00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:28.819
 says I

00:16:28.819 --> 00:16:29.159
 want nothing

00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:29.379
 to do

00:16:29.379 --> 00:16:29.699
 with you

00:16:29.700 --> 00:16:32.860
 and so it's

00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:33.400
 not surprising

00:16:33.400 --> 00:16:33.920
 is it that the

00:16:33.920 --> 00:16:34.640
 result of this

00:16:34.640 --> 00:16:35.259
 in the last

00:16:35.259 --> 00:16:36.420
 part of verse

00:16:36.420 --> 00:16:37.240
 3 is

00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:42.600
 and we're by

00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:43.259
 nature children

00:16:43.259 --> 00:16:43.740
 of wrath

00:16:43.740 --> 00:16:44.460
 like the rest

00:16:44.460 --> 00:16:44.980
 of mankind

00:16:44.980 --> 00:16:47.540
 the one thing

00:16:47.540 --> 00:16:48.240
 that we deserve

00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:50.500
 the one thing

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:50.720
 that we

00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:51.540
 naturally ought

00:16:51.540 --> 00:16:52.120
 to attract

00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:52.720
 from God

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:53.560
 is condemnation

00:16:53.559 --> 00:16:55.719
 we sin

00:16:55.719 --> 00:16:56.379
 by choice

00:16:56.379 --> 00:16:57.719
 we sin

00:16:57.719 --> 00:16:58.399
 by nature

00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:00.839
 it's an

00:17:00.839 --> 00:17:01.419
 indication of

00:17:01.419 --> 00:17:02.079
 original sin

00:17:02.079 --> 00:17:02.759
 Lever said

00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:03.779
 that original sin

00:17:03.779 --> 00:17:04.279
 is the only

00:17:04.279 --> 00:17:05.019
 doctrine that

00:17:05.019 --> 00:17:05.399
 has been

00:17:05.399 --> 00:17:05.980
 empirically

00:17:05.980 --> 00:17:06.500
 proven

00:17:06.500 --> 00:17:07.240
 the evidence

00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:07.720
 is there

00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:09.440
 despite what

00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:09.799
 people want

00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:10.319
 to believe

00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:13.339
 we are by

00:17:13.339 --> 00:17:13.740
 nature

00:17:13.740 --> 00:17:14.500
 objects

00:17:14.500 --> 00:17:15.259
 of wrath

00:17:15.259 --> 00:17:15.740
 and when you

00:17:15.740 --> 00:17:16.079
 think of the

00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:16.579
 word wrath

00:17:16.579 --> 00:17:16.899
 I don't know

00:17:16.899 --> 00:17:17.279
 what you think

00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:17.579
 of

00:17:17.579 --> 00:17:20.259
 it makes me

00:17:20.259 --> 00:17:20.539
 think of a

00:17:20.539 --> 00:17:21.379
 heavy metal band

00:17:21.379 --> 00:17:22.359
 certain words

00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:22.859
 don't they have

00:17:22.859 --> 00:17:23.759
 certain images

00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:24.899
 wrath

00:17:24.899 --> 00:17:27.679
 but it's

00:17:27.679 --> 00:17:28.740
 not simply

00:17:28.740 --> 00:17:29.379
 an emotion

00:17:29.379 --> 00:17:31.179
 that kind of

00:17:31.179 --> 00:17:32.199
 springs out

00:17:32.199 --> 00:17:35.359
 it's not an

00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:35.819
 emotion that

00:17:35.819 --> 00:17:36.279
 springs out

00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:36.619
 from a

00:17:36.619 --> 00:17:37.379
 righteous God

00:17:37.379 --> 00:17:37.919
 we'll give God

00:17:37.919 --> 00:17:38.359
 enough time

00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:38.759
 and in the end

00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:39.479
 you'll get over it

00:17:39.479 --> 00:17:41.479
 it speaks of

00:17:41.479 --> 00:17:42.599
 God's righteous

00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:43.779
 his right and

00:17:43.779 --> 00:17:45.000
 holy response

00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.139
 from a just

00:17:47.139 --> 00:17:48.139
 God's response

00:17:48.139 --> 00:17:48.479
 to sin

00:17:48.479 --> 00:17:49.000
 and it is

00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:49.779
 experienced in

00:17:49.779 --> 00:17:50.379
 part now

00:17:50.379 --> 00:17:50.939
 Romans 1

00:17:50.939 --> 00:17:51.619
 tells us that

00:17:51.619 --> 00:17:53.879
 this world

00:17:53.879 --> 00:17:54.419
 is under

00:17:54.419 --> 00:17:54.779
 judgment

00:17:54.779 --> 00:17:55.399
 and we do

00:17:55.399 --> 00:17:56.559
 experience that

00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:57.319
 but it will

00:17:57.319 --> 00:17:58.019
 be experienced

00:17:58.019 --> 00:17:58.819
 fully on the

00:17:58.819 --> 00:17:59.259
 day of the

00:17:59.259 --> 00:17:59.659
 Lord

00:17:59.659 --> 00:18:02.179
 and that day

00:18:02.179 --> 00:18:02.659
 is called the

00:18:02.659 --> 00:18:03.379
 day of God's

00:18:03.379 --> 00:18:03.779
 wrath

00:18:03.779 --> 00:18:04.879
 the day of

00:18:04.879 --> 00:18:05.379
 vengeance

00:18:05.379 --> 00:18:06.739
 as we looked

00:18:06.739 --> 00:18:07.199
 at this one

00:18:07.199 --> 00:18:09.639
 and it is a

00:18:09.639 --> 00:18:10.319
 holy wrath

00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:10.979
 the opposite

00:18:10.979 --> 00:18:11.819
 to love

00:18:11.819 --> 00:18:13.279
 is not

00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:13.679
 anger

00:18:13.679 --> 00:18:16.159
 the opposite

00:18:16.159 --> 00:18:16.500
 to love

00:18:16.500 --> 00:18:17.299
 is indifference

00:18:17.299 --> 00:18:19.500
 and God

00:18:19.500 --> 00:18:20.220
 is anything

00:18:20.220 --> 00:18:21.460
 but indifferent

00:18:21.460 --> 00:18:22.299
 let me tell

00:18:22.299 --> 00:18:22.559
 you

00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:25.799
 but it's

00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:26.259
 what awaits

00:18:26.259 --> 00:18:26.839
 all those

00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:27.379
 who are lost

00:18:27.379 --> 00:18:27.839
 and outside

00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:28.339
 of Christ

00:18:28.339 --> 00:18:29.099
 Jesus said

00:18:29.099 --> 00:18:29.379
 it very

00:18:29.379 --> 00:18:29.919
 simply at

00:18:29.919 --> 00:18:30.159
 the end

00:18:30.159 --> 00:18:30.500
 of John

00:18:30.500 --> 00:18:30.879
 3

00:18:30.879 --> 00:18:31.200
 whoever

00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:31.720
 believes

00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:32.019
 on the

00:18:32.019 --> 00:18:32.240
 son

00:18:32.240 --> 00:18:33.039
 has life

00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:35.259
 whoever

00:18:35.259 --> 00:18:35.899
 rejects

00:18:35.899 --> 00:18:36.200
 the son

00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:36.639
 does not

00:18:36.639 --> 00:18:37.259
 have life

00:18:37.259 --> 00:18:38.000
 and the

00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:38.419
 wrath of

00:18:38.419 --> 00:18:38.639
 God

00:18:38.639 --> 00:18:39.059
 remains

00:18:39.059 --> 00:18:39.299
 upon

00:18:39.299 --> 00:18:40.299
 him

00:18:40.299 --> 00:18:42.799
 do you

00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:43.059
 see the

00:18:43.059 --> 00:18:43.339
 choice

00:18:43.339 --> 00:18:43.639
 it is

00:18:43.639 --> 00:18:44.079
 like the

00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:44.500
 blaze

00:18:44.500 --> 00:18:44.799
 and the

00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:45.220
 guillotine

00:18:45.220 --> 00:18:45.740
 ready to

00:18:45.740 --> 00:18:46.059
 drop

00:18:46.059 --> 00:18:49.200
 hence

00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:49.679
 the call

00:18:49.679 --> 00:18:49.960
 of the

00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:50.359
 gospel

00:18:50.359 --> 00:18:50.919
 is to

00:18:50.919 --> 00:18:51.419
 flee

00:18:51.419 --> 00:18:51.980
 from the

00:18:51.980 --> 00:18:52.279
 wrath

00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:52.819
 to come

00:18:52.819 --> 00:18:55.639
 and that

00:18:55.639 --> 00:18:55.919
 is the

00:18:55.919 --> 00:18:56.399
 status of

00:18:56.399 --> 00:18:56.619
 someone

00:18:56.619 --> 00:18:56.879
 who has

00:18:56.879 --> 00:18:57.139
 not

00:18:57.139 --> 00:18:57.619
 come to

00:18:57.619 --> 00:18:58.019
 Christ

00:18:58.019 --> 00:18:59.019
 of course

00:18:59.019 --> 00:18:59.619
 the blade

00:18:59.619 --> 00:18:59.859
 of the

00:18:59.859 --> 00:19:00.179
 guillotine

00:19:00.179 --> 00:19:00.819
 is removed

00:19:00.819 --> 00:19:02.039
 when you

00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:02.339
 come to

00:19:02.339 --> 00:19:02.599
 Christ

00:19:02.599 --> 00:19:03.799
 no condemnation

00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:04.139
 in Christ

00:19:04.139 --> 00:19:04.539
 Jesus

00:19:04.539 --> 00:19:06.179
 that's why

00:19:06.179 --> 00:19:06.399
 it's so

00:19:06.399 --> 00:19:06.839
 fantastic

00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:07.179
 to be a

00:19:07.179 --> 00:19:07.440
 Christian

00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:08.339
 tonight

00:19:08.339 --> 00:19:10.019
 that's why

00:19:10.019 --> 00:19:10.259
 you can

00:19:10.259 --> 00:19:10.619
 wake up

00:19:10.619 --> 00:19:10.879
 tomorrow

00:19:10.879 --> 00:19:11.200
 morning

00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:11.419
 knowing

00:19:11.419 --> 00:19:11.819
 that every

00:19:11.819 --> 00:19:12.240
 sin has

00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:12.639
 been dealt

00:19:12.639 --> 00:19:12.919
 with

00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:16.360
 but outside

00:19:16.360 --> 00:19:16.779
 of that

00:19:16.779 --> 00:19:18.920
 outside of

00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:19.200
 that you

00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:19.660
 don't want

00:19:19.660 --> 00:19:20.000
 to meet

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:20.600
 with God

00:19:20.600 --> 00:19:21.300
 unforgiven

00:19:21.300 --> 00:19:23.500
 but if

00:19:23.500 --> 00:19:23.740
 Hebrews

00:19:23.740 --> 00:19:24.180
 says it

00:19:24.180 --> 00:19:24.400
 is a

00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:24.779
 dreadful

00:19:24.779 --> 00:19:25.000
 thing

00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:25.340
 it is a

00:19:25.340 --> 00:19:25.600
 fearful

00:19:25.600 --> 00:19:26.100
 thing to

00:19:26.100 --> 00:19:26.460
 fall into

00:19:26.460 --> 00:19:26.840
 the hands

00:19:26.840 --> 00:19:27.080
 of the

00:19:27.080 --> 00:19:27.259
 living

00:19:27.259 --> 00:19:27.620
 God

00:19:27.620 --> 00:19:27.960
 and our

00:19:27.960 --> 00:19:28.220
 God

00:19:28.220 --> 00:19:28.460
 is a

00:19:28.460 --> 00:19:28.860
 consuming

00:19:28.860 --> 00:19:29.340
 fire

00:19:29.340 --> 00:19:32.880
 it is

00:19:32.880 --> 00:19:33.340
 not the

00:19:33.340 --> 00:19:33.660
 Bible

00:19:33.660 --> 00:19:34.060
 it is

00:19:34.060 --> 00:19:34.620
 not Jesus

00:19:34.620 --> 00:19:34.980
 but it

00:19:34.980 --> 00:19:35.539
 was Mahatma

00:19:35.539 --> 00:19:35.920
 Gandhi

00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:36.580
 who said

00:19:36.580 --> 00:19:37.120
 Jesus

00:19:37.120 --> 00:19:39.060
 hates the

00:19:39.060 --> 00:19:39.580
 sin but

00:19:39.580 --> 00:19:40.120
 loves the

00:19:40.120 --> 00:19:40.380
 sinner

00:19:40.380 --> 00:19:40.980
 that was

00:19:40.980 --> 00:19:41.340
 Mahatma

00:19:41.340 --> 00:19:41.620
 Gandhi

00:19:41.620 --> 00:19:42.200
 said that

00:19:42.200 --> 00:19:44.160
 now there's

00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:44.920
 half truth

00:19:44.920 --> 00:19:45.259
 there

00:19:45.259 --> 00:19:47.440
 but whatever

00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:48.140
 distinction you

00:19:48.140 --> 00:19:48.580
 want to make

00:19:48.580 --> 00:19:49.660
 now between

00:19:49.660 --> 00:19:50.840
 the two

00:19:50.840 --> 00:19:51.519
 between sin

00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:51.940
 and the

00:19:51.940 --> 00:19:52.240
 sinner

00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:55.019
 it is a

00:19:55.019 --> 00:19:55.440
 meaningless

00:19:55.440 --> 00:19:56.580
 distinction

00:19:56.580 --> 00:19:57.319
 on the day

00:19:57.319 --> 00:19:57.539
 of the

00:19:57.539 --> 00:19:57.900
 Lord when

00:19:57.900 --> 00:19:58.340
 he comes

00:19:58.340 --> 00:19:58.940
 when both

00:19:58.940 --> 00:19:59.539
 sinner and

00:19:59.539 --> 00:20:00.080
 sin will

00:20:00.080 --> 00:20:00.420
 be dealt

00:20:00.420 --> 00:20:00.779
 with

00:20:00.779 --> 00:20:03.980
 you see how

00:20:03.980 --> 00:20:04.480
 heavy this

00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:04.920
 is tonight

00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:05.299
 we're not

00:20:05.299 --> 00:20:05.740
 making this

00:20:05.740 --> 00:20:05.940
 up

00:20:05.940 --> 00:20:06.420
 there are

00:20:06.420 --> 00:20:07.120
 graphic

00:20:07.120 --> 00:20:07.600
 images

00:20:07.600 --> 00:20:07.900
 in the

00:20:07.900 --> 00:20:08.140
 Bible

00:20:08.140 --> 00:20:08.500
 that are

00:20:08.500 --> 00:20:09.019
 written in

00:20:09.019 --> 00:20:09.500
 such a

00:20:09.500 --> 00:20:09.860
 way

00:20:09.860 --> 00:20:10.500
 as to

00:20:10.500 --> 00:20:10.799
 evoke

00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:11.180
 fear

00:20:11.180 --> 00:20:14.080
 the Bible

00:20:14.080 --> 00:20:14.620
 goes out

00:20:14.620 --> 00:20:14.840
 of its

00:20:14.840 --> 00:20:15.160
 way to

00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:15.400
 tell you

00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:15.920
 how serious

00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:16.519
 this is

00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:18.600
 let's go to

00:20:18.600 --> 00:20:19.240
 just a couple

00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:19.700
 of places

00:20:19.700 --> 00:20:20.200
 let's go to

00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:20.580
 Revelation

00:20:20.580 --> 00:20:21.259
 chapter 6

00:20:21.259 --> 00:20:22.080
 verse 15

00:20:22.080 --> 00:20:25.140
 Revelation

00:20:25.140 --> 00:20:25.799
 chapter 6

00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:26.400
 verse 15

00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:26.640
 it's on

00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:27.759
 page 1031

00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:31.560
 it's one of

00:20:31.560 --> 00:20:32.259
 the expressions

00:20:32.259 --> 00:20:32.840
 of final

00:20:32.840 --> 00:20:33.160
 judgment

00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:33.620
 Revelation

00:20:33.620 --> 00:20:34.440
 chapter 6

00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:35.640
 verse 15

00:20:35.640 --> 00:20:43.420
 it says

00:20:43.420 --> 00:20:44.500
 on page

00:20:44.500 --> 00:20:45.420
 1031

00:20:45.420 --> 00:20:47.420
 then the

00:20:47.420 --> 00:20:47.780
 kings of

00:20:47.780 --> 00:20:48.140
 the earth

00:20:48.140 --> 00:20:48.380
 and the

00:20:48.380 --> 00:20:48.940
 great ones

00:20:48.940 --> 00:20:49.180
 and the

00:20:49.180 --> 00:20:49.520
 generals

00:20:49.520 --> 00:20:49.880
 and the

00:20:49.880 --> 00:20:50.120
 rich

00:20:50.120 --> 00:20:50.380
 and the

00:20:50.380 --> 00:20:50.660
 powerful

00:20:50.660 --> 00:20:51.040
 and ever

00:20:51.040 --> 00:20:51.259
 and the

00:20:51.259 --> 00:20:51.600
 slave and

00:20:51.600 --> 00:20:51.900
 free

00:20:51.900 --> 00:20:53.820
 hid

00:20:53.820 --> 00:20:54.259
 themselves

00:20:54.259 --> 00:20:54.580
 in the

00:20:54.580 --> 00:20:55.020
 caves

00:20:55.020 --> 00:20:55.640
 and among

00:20:55.640 --> 00:20:56.140
 the rocks

00:20:56.140 --> 00:20:56.360
 and the

00:20:56.360 --> 00:20:56.920
 mountains

00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:58.660
 calling to

00:20:58.660 --> 00:20:59.120
 the mountains

00:20:59.120 --> 00:20:59.660
 and rocks

00:20:59.660 --> 00:21:00.340
 fall on

00:21:00.340 --> 00:21:00.620
 us

00:21:00.620 --> 00:21:02.620
 and hide

00:21:02.620 --> 00:21:02.940
 us from

00:21:02.940 --> 00:21:03.420
 the face

00:21:03.420 --> 00:21:03.740
 of him

00:21:03.740 --> 00:21:04.000
 who is

00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:04.460
 seated on

00:21:04.460 --> 00:21:04.880
 the throne

00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:05.200
 and from

00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:05.539
 the wrath

00:21:05.539 --> 00:21:05.779
 of the

00:21:05.779 --> 00:21:06.039
 Lamb

00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:07.860
 the great

00:21:07.860 --> 00:21:08.180
 day of

00:21:08.180 --> 00:21:08.579
 their wrath

00:21:08.579 --> 00:21:08.900
 has come

00:21:08.900 --> 00:21:09.079
 and who

00:21:09.079 --> 00:21:09.620
 can stand

00:21:09.620 --> 00:21:13.960
 on that

00:21:13.960 --> 00:21:14.480
 day it

00:21:14.480 --> 00:21:14.720
 will be

00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:15.140
 better for

00:21:15.140 --> 00:21:15.559
 the enemies

00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:16.160
 of God

00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:16.620
 to have

00:21:16.620 --> 00:21:16.960
 a hundred

00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:17.539
 tons of

00:21:17.539 --> 00:21:18.039
 concrete

00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:18.880
 fall upon

00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:19.180
 them

00:21:19.180 --> 00:21:19.960
 than to

00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:20.259
 meet the

00:21:20.259 --> 00:21:20.460
 wrath

00:21:20.460 --> 00:21:20.720
 of the

00:21:20.720 --> 00:21:20.980
 Lamb

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:22.940
 and the

00:21:22.940 --> 00:21:23.240
 piercing

00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:23.600
 judgment

00:21:23.600 --> 00:21:24.059
 it is

00:21:24.059 --> 00:21:24.500
 the stuff

00:21:24.500 --> 00:21:25.120
 of nightmares

00:21:25.120 --> 00:21:27.160
 to meet

00:21:27.160 --> 00:21:27.460
 God

00:21:27.460 --> 00:21:28.340
 unforgiving

00:21:28.340 --> 00:21:28.779
 is simply

00:21:28.779 --> 00:21:29.200
 a nightmare

00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:31.720
 and you

00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:32.000
 don't know

00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:32.519
 what terror

00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:33.340
 is until

00:21:33.340 --> 00:21:33.940
 you stand

00:21:33.940 --> 00:21:34.360
 before a

00:21:34.360 --> 00:21:34.580
 holy

00:21:34.580 --> 00:21:34.960
 God

00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:35.240
 and his

00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:36.380
 God

00:21:36.380 --> 00:21:36.820
 appointed

00:21:36.820 --> 00:21:37.360
 son

00:21:37.360 --> 00:21:39.240
 who is

00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:39.539
 judge

00:21:39.539 --> 00:21:39.779
 and you

00:21:39.779 --> 00:21:40.120
 discover

00:21:40.120 --> 00:21:40.500
 that there

00:21:40.500 --> 00:21:40.820
 is no

00:21:40.820 --> 00:21:41.259
 place to

00:21:41.259 --> 00:21:41.440
 run

00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:42.019
 Psalm 2

00:21:42.019 --> 00:21:42.539
 puts it

00:21:42.539 --> 00:21:43.759
 in this

00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:44.180
 way for

00:21:44.180 --> 00:21:44.600
 those who

00:21:44.600 --> 00:21:45.039
 will stand

00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:45.480
 against the

00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:45.840
 Messiah

00:21:45.840 --> 00:21:46.600
 so complete

00:21:46.600 --> 00:21:47.019
 is his

00:21:47.019 --> 00:21:47.400
 judgment

00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:47.900
 that he

00:21:47.900 --> 00:21:48.320
 will dash

00:21:48.320 --> 00:21:48.620
 them to

00:21:48.620 --> 00:21:49.059
 pieces

00:21:49.059 --> 00:21:51.580
 Philippians

00:21:51.580 --> 00:21:52.120
 chapter 2

00:21:52.120 --> 00:21:52.400
 says

00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:52.640
 that the

00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:53.039
 name of

00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:53.279
 Jesus

00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:53.880
 every knee

00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:54.320
 will bow

00:21:54.320 --> 00:21:54.759
 in heaven

00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:55.160
 on the

00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:55.480
 earth

00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:55.900
 and under

00:21:55.900 --> 00:21:56.080
 the

00:21:56.080 --> 00:21:56.320
 earth

00:21:56.320 --> 00:21:56.700

00:21:56.700 --> 00:21:57.019
 tongue

00:21:57.019 --> 00:21:57.519
 confess

00:21:57.519 --> 00:21:58.019
 that Jesus

00:21:58.019 --> 00:21:58.440
 Christ

00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:59.019
 is Lord

00:21:59.019 --> 00:22:00.799
 to the

00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:01.200
 glory of

00:22:01.200 --> 00:22:01.460
 God

00:22:01.460 --> 00:22:02.019
 willingly

00:22:02.019 --> 00:22:03.180
 or unwillingly

00:22:03.180 --> 00:22:05.240
 from the

00:22:05.240 --> 00:22:05.740
 height of

00:22:05.740 --> 00:22:06.200
 heaven to

00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:06.619
 the pit

00:22:06.619 --> 00:22:07.299
 of hell

00:22:07.299 --> 00:22:08.819
 people will

00:22:08.819 --> 00:22:09.460
 be forced

00:22:09.460 --> 00:22:10.240
 to acknowledge

00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:10.819
 that Jesus

00:22:10.819 --> 00:22:11.539
 Christ is

00:22:11.539 --> 00:22:12.240
 Lord and

00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:12.700
 King to

00:22:12.700 --> 00:22:13.099
 the glory

00:22:13.099 --> 00:22:13.559
 of God

00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:14.680
 all rebellion

00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:16.000
 will be

00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:16.400
 suppressed

00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:16.980
 and ignored

00:22:16.980 --> 00:22:19.859
 let me quote

00:22:19.859 --> 00:22:20.220
 to you Bob

00:22:20.220 --> 00:22:20.619
 Dylan for the

00:22:20.619 --> 00:22:21.180
 last one

00:22:21.180 --> 00:22:23.440
 the iron hand

00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:23.839
 you know the

00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:24.660
 rebellious word

00:22:24.660 --> 00:22:25.319
 the iron hand

00:22:25.319 --> 00:22:25.740
 it ain't no

00:22:25.740 --> 00:22:26.319
 match for the

00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:26.859
 iron rod

00:22:26.859 --> 00:22:28.439
 the strongest

00:22:28.439 --> 00:22:29.039
 wall will

00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:29.599
 crumble and

00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:30.019
 fall to

00:22:30.019 --> 00:22:30.379
 a mighty

00:22:30.379 --> 00:22:30.819
 God

00:22:30.819 --> 00:22:32.179
 for all

00:22:32.179 --> 00:22:32.539
 those who

00:22:32.539 --> 00:22:33.099
 have eyes

00:22:33.099 --> 00:22:33.500
 and all

00:22:33.500 --> 00:22:33.959
 those who

00:22:33.959 --> 00:22:34.419
 have ears

00:22:34.419 --> 00:22:35.419
 it is only

00:22:35.419 --> 00:22:35.899
 he who

00:22:35.899 --> 00:22:36.339
 can reduce

00:22:36.339 --> 00:22:36.619
 me the

00:22:36.619 --> 00:22:37.019
 tears

00:22:37.019 --> 00:22:38.159
 of every

00:22:38.159 --> 00:22:38.519
 earthly

00:22:38.519 --> 00:22:39.039
 plan

00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:39.439
 that be

00:22:39.439 --> 00:22:39.879
 known to

00:22:39.879 --> 00:22:40.139
 man

00:22:40.139 --> 00:22:40.479
 he is

00:22:40.479 --> 00:22:41.339
 unconcerned

00:22:41.339 --> 00:22:41.679
 he's got

00:22:41.679 --> 00:22:42.199
 plans of

00:22:42.199 --> 00:22:42.599
 his own

00:22:42.599 --> 00:22:43.159
 to set up

00:22:43.159 --> 00:22:43.599
 his throne

00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:44.399
 when he

00:22:44.399 --> 00:22:44.899
 returns

00:22:44.899 --> 00:22:48.859
 and on that

00:22:48.859 --> 00:22:49.299
 day God's

00:22:49.299 --> 00:22:49.799
 enemies will

00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:50.399
 beg him to

00:22:50.399 --> 00:22:50.799
 kill them

00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:52.179
 and they will

00:22:52.179 --> 00:22:52.599
 not be able

00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:53.000
 to die

00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:55.939
 and you and

00:22:55.939 --> 00:22:56.519
 I love

00:22:56.519 --> 00:22:56.940
 people

00:22:56.940 --> 00:22:58.500
 who are

00:22:58.500 --> 00:22:59.660
 presently

00:22:59.660 --> 00:23:00.160
 heading for

00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:00.519
 the fist

00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:00.960
 of God's

00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:01.220
 judgment

00:23:01.220 --> 00:23:04.079
 to put it

00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:04.720
 another way

00:23:04.720 --> 00:23:05.279
 they will be

00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:05.720
 shut out

00:23:05.720 --> 00:23:05.980
 from the

00:23:05.980 --> 00:23:06.440
 presence of

00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:06.799
 the Lord

00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:09.779
 this is the

00:23:09.779 --> 00:23:10.220

00:23:47.040 --> 00:23:47.400
 to us

 Lord Jesus

 suffer

00:24:01.500 --> 00:24:01.660
 the

00:24:01.660 --> 00:24:01.940
 punishment

00:24:01.940 --> 00:24:02.100
 of

00:24:02.100 --> 00:24:02.420
 eternal

00:24:02.420 --> 00:24:02.940
 destruction

00:24:02.940 --> 00:24:03.460
 away from

00:24:03.460 --> 00:24:03.860
 the presence

00:24:03.860 --> 00:24:04.140
 of the

00:24:04.140 --> 00:24:04.380
 Lord

00:24:04.380 --> 00:24:04.620
 and from

00:24:04.620 --> 00:24:04.980
 the glory

00:24:04.980 --> 00:24:05.220
 of his

00:24:05.220 --> 00:24:05.500
 might

00:24:05.500 --> 00:24:07.380
 when he

00:24:07.380 --> 00:24:07.820
 comes on

00:24:07.820 --> 00:24:08.200
 that day

00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:08.440
 to be

00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:08.920
 glorified

00:24:08.920 --> 00:24:09.220
 in his

00:24:09.220 --> 00:24:09.500
 saints

00:24:09.500 --> 00:24:09.759
 and to

00:24:09.759 --> 00:24:09.900
 be

00:24:09.900 --> 00:24:10.320
 marveled

00:24:10.320 --> 00:24:10.420
 at

00:24:10.420 --> 00:24:10.580
 among

00:24:10.580 --> 00:24:10.880
 all

00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:11.040
 who

00:24:11.040 --> 00:24:11.480
 believed

00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:11.960
 because

00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:12.259
 our

00:24:12.259 --> 00:24:12.660
 testimony

00:24:12.660 --> 00:24:13.240
 to you

00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:14.460
 has

00:24:14.460 --> 00:24:14.880
 believed

00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:18.660
 on the

00:24:18.660 --> 00:24:19.100
 last day

00:24:19.100 --> 00:24:19.340
 it isn't

00:24:19.340 --> 00:24:19.460
 going to

00:24:19.460 --> 00:24:19.660
 be a

00:24:19.660 --> 00:24:20.020
 surprise

00:24:20.020 --> 00:24:20.500
 the future

00:24:20.500 --> 00:24:21.020
 is clear

00:24:21.020 --> 00:24:21.660
 and crystal

00:24:21.660 --> 00:24:22.240
 you don't

00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:22.540
 have to

00:24:22.540 --> 00:24:22.760
 wonder

00:24:22.760 --> 00:24:23.000
 what it

00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:23.100
 will be

00:24:23.100 --> 00:24:23.380
 like

00:24:23.380 --> 00:24:26.040
 I want

00:24:26.040 --> 00:24:26.240
 you to

00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:26.460
 realise

00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:26.820
 it is

00:24:26.820 --> 00:24:27.540
 an active

00:24:27.540 --> 00:24:28.020
 judgement

00:24:28.020 --> 00:24:28.680
 it is

00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:29.340
 the language

00:24:29.340 --> 00:24:30.400
 of exclusion

00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:31.340
 to not

00:24:31.340 --> 00:24:31.940
 be in the

00:24:31.940 --> 00:24:32.260
 presence

00:24:32.260 --> 00:24:32.880
 of God

00:24:32.880 --> 00:24:33.640
 of missing

00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:34.260
 out on

00:24:34.260 --> 00:24:34.760
 the glory

00:24:34.760 --> 00:24:35.180
 that is

00:24:35.180 --> 00:24:35.640
 to come

00:24:35.640 --> 00:24:37.240
 of being

00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:38.080
 told by

00:24:38.080 --> 00:24:38.460
 Jesus

00:24:38.460 --> 00:24:38.900
 depart

00:24:38.900 --> 00:24:39.440
 from me

00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:39.840
 for I

00:24:39.840 --> 00:24:40.020
 never

00:24:40.020 --> 00:24:40.220
 knew

00:24:40.220 --> 00:24:40.520
 you

00:24:40.520 --> 00:24:42.020
 of not

00:24:42.020 --> 00:24:42.420
 being able

00:24:42.420 --> 00:24:42.760
 to sit

00:24:42.760 --> 00:24:42.980
 at the

00:24:42.980 --> 00:24:43.240
 table

00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:43.800
 with Abraham

00:24:43.799 --> 00:24:45.059
 and Isaac

00:24:45.059 --> 00:24:46.139
 and Jacob

00:24:46.139 --> 00:24:47.579
 and Paul

00:24:47.579 --> 00:24:48.019
 Levy

00:24:48.019 --> 00:24:50.500
 it is so

00:24:50.500 --> 00:24:50.779
 happy

00:24:50.779 --> 00:24:51.480
 isn't it

00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:53.399
 there will

00:24:53.399 --> 00:24:53.579
 be a

00:24:53.579 --> 00:24:54.059
 cast of

00:24:54.059 --> 00:24:54.359
 millions

00:24:54.359 --> 00:24:54.720
 there

00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:55.480
 but you

00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:55.680
 won't

00:24:55.680 --> 00:24:56.159
 be there

00:24:56.159 --> 00:24:58.539
 and there will

00:24:58.539 --> 00:24:58.759
 be a

00:24:58.759 --> 00:24:59.359
 failure to

00:24:59.359 --> 00:24:59.879
 taste of

00:24:59.879 --> 00:25:00.180
 the new

00:25:00.180 --> 00:25:00.599
 creation

00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:00.960
 when there

00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:01.159
 will be

00:25:01.159 --> 00:25:01.519
 no more

00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:01.859
 crying

00:25:01.859 --> 00:25:02.180
 and no

00:25:02.180 --> 00:25:02.319
 more

00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:02.539
 grief

00:25:02.539 --> 00:25:02.899
 and no

00:25:02.899 --> 00:25:03.099
 more

00:25:03.099 --> 00:25:03.539
 pain

00:25:03.539 --> 00:25:05.619
 and to

00:25:05.619 --> 00:25:06.319
 miss out

00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:07.259
 on seeing

00:25:07.259 --> 00:25:07.779
 God

00:25:07.779 --> 00:25:08.559
 face to

00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:09.000
 face

00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:09.299
 to be

00:25:09.299 --> 00:25:09.759
 shut out

00:25:09.759 --> 00:25:10.039
 from the

00:25:10.039 --> 00:25:10.379
 presence

00:25:10.379 --> 00:25:10.700
 of the

00:25:10.700 --> 00:25:11.099
 Lord

00:25:11.099 --> 00:25:12.480
 to know

00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:12.799
 that there's

00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:13.299
 a party

00:25:13.299 --> 00:25:13.779
 going on

00:25:13.779 --> 00:25:14.299
 next door

00:25:14.299 --> 00:25:14.700
 but you

00:25:14.700 --> 00:25:15.180
 can never

00:25:15.180 --> 00:25:15.779
 get in

00:25:15.779 --> 00:25:18.460
 John Paul

00:25:18.460 --> 00:25:19.000
 Sartre

00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:19.759
 once said

00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:20.240
 hell is

00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:20.819
 other people

00:25:20.819 --> 00:25:22.119
 must be a

00:25:22.119 --> 00:25:22.539
 grief friend

00:25:22.539 --> 00:25:22.899
 to have

00:25:22.899 --> 00:25:24.819
 but hell

00:25:24.819 --> 00:25:25.200
 is no

00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:25.619
 people

00:25:25.619 --> 00:25:27.399
 and no

00:25:27.399 --> 00:25:27.960
 relationship

00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:29.200
 and no

00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:29.579
 God

00:25:29.579 --> 00:25:35.619
 for the

00:25:35.619 --> 00:25:36.119
 person who

00:25:36.119 --> 00:25:36.359
 is a

00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:36.660
 Christian

00:25:36.660 --> 00:25:37.359
 here tonight

00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:38.420
 this world

00:25:38.420 --> 00:25:40.440
 is as bad

00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:40.980
 as it'll ever

00:25:40.980 --> 00:25:41.299
 get

00:25:41.299 --> 00:25:44.539
 but for

00:25:44.539 --> 00:25:44.859
 the person

00:25:44.859 --> 00:25:45.159
 who is

00:25:45.159 --> 00:25:45.639
 not a

00:25:45.639 --> 00:25:45.940
 Christian

00:25:45.940 --> 00:25:46.519
 this world

00:25:46.519 --> 00:25:46.859
 is the

00:25:46.859 --> 00:25:47.119
 best

00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:47.279
 in

00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:47.480
 loving

00:25:47.480 --> 00:25:47.759
 it

00:25:47.759 --> 00:25:51.599
 John

00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:52.000
 Chapman

00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:53.240
 Houndless

00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:53.819
 in his

00:25:53.819 --> 00:25:54.259
 brilliant book

00:25:54.259 --> 00:25:54.579
 A Fresh

00:25:54.579 --> 00:25:54.960
 Start

00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:57.500
 wrote this

00:25:57.500 --> 00:25:58.039
 he used

00:25:58.039 --> 00:25:58.440
 poetic

00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:58.940
 licenses

00:25:58.940 --> 00:25:59.599
 an account

00:25:59.599 --> 00:26:00.059
 of someone

00:26:00.059 --> 00:26:00.619
 who finds

00:26:00.619 --> 00:26:01.039
 themselves

00:26:01.039 --> 00:26:01.399
 in outer

00:26:01.399 --> 00:26:01.879
 darkness

00:26:01.879 --> 00:26:02.359
 that Jesus

00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:02.960
 spoke of

00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:03.399
 and it

00:26:03.399 --> 00:26:03.759
 goes like

00:26:03.759 --> 00:26:04.059
 this

00:26:04.059 --> 00:26:06.139
 he'd

00:26:06.139 --> 00:26:06.619
 never felt

00:26:06.619 --> 00:26:06.879
 such

00:26:06.879 --> 00:26:07.339
 aloneness

00:26:07.339 --> 00:26:07.799
 before

00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:09.579
 where is

00:26:09.579 --> 00:26:10.059
 my wife

00:26:10.059 --> 00:26:10.559
 he choked

00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:12.799
 only that

00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:13.539
 awful echo

00:26:13.539 --> 00:26:14.279
 not here

00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:14.919
 your wife

00:26:14.919 --> 00:26:15.339
 is not

00:26:15.339 --> 00:26:15.720
 here

00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:17.519
 he tried

00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:17.819
 to piece

00:26:17.819 --> 00:26:18.059
 it all

00:26:18.059 --> 00:26:18.359
 together

00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:18.659
 but the

00:26:18.659 --> 00:26:18.980
 darkness

00:26:18.980 --> 00:26:19.480
 was too

00:26:19.480 --> 00:26:19.839
 thick

00:26:19.839 --> 00:26:22.099
 once in a

00:26:22.099 --> 00:26:22.440
 while he

00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:22.799
 thought he

00:26:22.799 --> 00:26:23.159
 could see a

00:26:23.159 --> 00:26:23.720
 blurred figure

00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:24.299
 or hear an

00:26:24.299 --> 00:26:25.099
 anguished moan

00:26:25.099 --> 00:26:25.740
 he remembered

00:26:25.740 --> 00:26:26.419
 the pain

00:26:26.419 --> 00:26:27.159
 those last

00:26:27.159 --> 00:26:27.740
 moments of

00:26:27.740 --> 00:26:28.000
 terror

00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:28.240
 but it

00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:28.679
 was nothing

00:26:28.679 --> 00:26:29.399
 compared to

00:26:29.399 --> 00:26:29.960
 the feelings

00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:30.799
 that were

00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:31.559
 creeping into

00:26:31.559 --> 00:26:32.139
 his awareness

00:26:32.139 --> 00:26:32.740
 again he

00:26:32.740 --> 00:26:33.079
 cried

00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:33.839
 where is

00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:34.619
 my wife

00:26:34.619 --> 00:26:35.759
 your wife

00:26:35.759 --> 00:26:36.059
 is not

00:26:36.059 --> 00:26:36.339
 here

00:26:36.339 --> 00:26:38.960
 where are

00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:39.779
 my children

00:26:39.779 --> 00:26:41.379
 your children

00:26:41.379 --> 00:26:41.659
 are not

00:26:41.659 --> 00:26:41.919
 here

00:26:41.919 --> 00:26:42.419
 he started

00:26:42.419 --> 00:26:42.759
 a group

00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:43.179
 about in

00:26:43.179 --> 00:26:43.639
 the darkness

00:26:43.639 --> 00:26:44.000
 but all

00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:44.619
 was blindness

00:26:44.619 --> 00:26:45.659
 my god

00:26:45.659 --> 00:26:46.220
 he howled

00:26:46.220 --> 00:26:46.480
 again

00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:47.179
 let me feel

00:26:47.179 --> 00:26:47.639
 the presence

00:26:47.639 --> 00:26:48.039
 of one

00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:48.619
 single human

00:26:48.619 --> 00:26:48.919
 being

00:26:48.919 --> 00:26:49.919
 my god

00:26:49.919 --> 00:26:50.359
 oh he

00:26:50.359 --> 00:26:50.699
 hadn't

00:26:50.699 --> 00:26:51.559
 said those

00:26:51.559 --> 00:26:51.960
 words in

00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:52.439
 such a long

00:26:52.439 --> 00:26:52.699
 time

00:26:52.699 --> 00:26:53.480
 my god

00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:54.299
 and now

00:26:54.299 --> 00:26:54.639
 he felt

00:26:54.639 --> 00:26:54.939
 like the

00:26:54.939 --> 00:26:55.599
 small child

00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:56.220
 being threatened

00:26:56.220 --> 00:26:56.740
 by the deep

00:26:56.740 --> 00:26:57.220
 darkness

00:26:57.220 --> 00:26:58.019
 no candles

00:26:58.019 --> 00:26:58.519
 anywhere

00:26:58.519 --> 00:26:59.460
 no love

00:26:59.460 --> 00:26:59.799
 anywhere

00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:00.519
 where is

00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:01.119
 my wife

00:27:01.119 --> 00:27:01.659
 he screamed

00:27:01.659 --> 00:27:02.159
 your wife

00:27:02.159 --> 00:27:02.500
 is not

00:27:02.500 --> 00:27:02.759
 here

00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:04.039
 where are

00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:04.660
 my children

00:27:04.660 --> 00:27:05.180
 he pleaded

00:27:05.180 --> 00:27:05.720
 your children

00:27:05.720 --> 00:27:06.039
 are not

00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:06.180
 here

00:27:06.180 --> 00:27:06.400
 and then

00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:06.799
 the greatest

00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:07.200
 of all

00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:07.519
 fears

00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:08.099
 came upon

00:27:08.099 --> 00:27:08.319
 him

00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:08.599
 he was

00:27:08.599 --> 00:27:09.039
 terrified

00:27:09.039 --> 00:27:09.680
 to ask

00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:10.420
 but he

00:27:10.420 --> 00:27:10.720
 knew he

00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:11.180
 had to

00:27:11.180 --> 00:27:12.599
 his whole

00:27:12.599 --> 00:27:13.359
 body trembled

00:27:13.359 --> 00:27:13.680
 as he

00:27:13.680 --> 00:27:14.220
 pursed his

00:27:14.220 --> 00:27:14.480
 lips

00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:14.799
 and he

00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:15.180
 wailed

00:27:15.180 --> 00:27:15.619
 into the

00:27:15.619 --> 00:27:16.039
 nebulous

00:27:16.039 --> 00:27:16.460
 night

00:27:16.460 --> 00:27:17.279
 where

00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:18.000
 oh where

00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:18.259
 is

00:27:18.259 --> 00:27:18.700
 god

00:27:18.700 --> 00:27:20.059
 and as

00:27:20.059 --> 00:27:20.519
 the deepest

00:27:20.519 --> 00:27:20.879
 of deep

00:27:20.879 --> 00:27:21.240
 darkness

00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:21.779
 creeped in

00:27:21.779 --> 00:27:22.059
 on his

00:27:22.059 --> 00:27:22.319
 soul

00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:22.680
 for all

00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:23.140
 eternity

00:27:23.140 --> 00:27:23.579
 he

00:27:23.579 --> 00:27:23.900
 heard

00:27:23.900 --> 00:27:24.119
 that

00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:24.640
 hideous

00:27:24.640 --> 00:27:25.140
 echo

00:27:25.140 --> 00:27:26.099
 whispering

00:27:26.099 --> 00:27:26.740
 the horrifying

00:27:26.740 --> 00:27:27.200
 of all

00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:27.619
 judgments

00:27:27.619 --> 00:27:27.619


00:27:32.759 --> 00:27:35.039
 now listen

00:27:35.039 --> 00:27:35.440
 to this

00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:37.599
 the reason

00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:38.440
 why jesus

00:27:38.440 --> 00:27:38.859
 cried

00:27:38.859 --> 00:27:39.559
 my god

00:27:39.559 --> 00:27:40.400
 my god

00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:42.460
 why have

00:27:42.460 --> 00:27:43.359
 you forsaken

00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:43.839
 me

00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:46.180
 is so that

00:27:46.180 --> 00:27:47.200
 you would not

00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:48.039
 have to hear

00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:49.039
 those words

00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:50.480
 god is

00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:51.339
 not here

00:27:51.339 --> 00:27:56.919
 he was

00:27:56.919 --> 00:27:57.599
 forsaken

00:27:57.599 --> 00:27:58.220
 so that

00:27:58.220 --> 00:27:58.799
 tonight

00:27:58.799 --> 00:27:59.579
 you do

00:27:59.579 --> 00:28:00.159
 not need

00:28:00.159 --> 00:28:01.059
 to fear

00:28:01.059 --> 00:28:01.339
 being

00:28:01.339 --> 00:28:01.859
 forsaken

00:28:01.859 --> 00:28:05.240
 now i

00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:05.500
 think we

00:28:05.500 --> 00:28:05.859
 need to be

00:28:05.859 --> 00:28:06.500
 careful here

00:28:06.500 --> 00:28:07.539
 i think we

00:28:07.539 --> 00:28:07.799
 need to be

00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:08.199
 careful on a

00:28:08.199 --> 00:28:08.539
 number of

00:28:08.539 --> 00:28:09.059
 levels but

00:28:09.059 --> 00:28:09.699
 the big

00:28:09.699 --> 00:28:09.939
 thing i

00:28:09.939 --> 00:28:10.159
 want to

00:28:10.159 --> 00:28:10.399
 say to

00:28:10.399 --> 00:28:10.699
 you tonight

00:28:10.699 --> 00:28:11.019
 is be

00:28:11.019 --> 00:28:11.679
 careful not

00:28:11.679 --> 00:28:12.079
 to think

00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:12.399
 that you

00:28:12.399 --> 00:28:12.879
 are more

00:28:12.879 --> 00:28:13.919
 merciful

00:28:13.919 --> 00:28:14.619
 than god

00:28:14.619 --> 00:28:14.980
 is

00:28:14.980 --> 00:28:19.019
 because as

00:28:19.019 --> 00:28:19.439
 we read

00:28:19.439 --> 00:28:19.859
 those words

00:28:19.859 --> 00:28:20.419
 from chapo

00:28:20.419 --> 00:28:20.959
 the great

00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:21.559
 temptation

00:28:21.559 --> 00:28:23.360
 is this

00:28:23.360 --> 00:28:24.019
 doesn't the

00:28:24.019 --> 00:28:24.420
 punishment

00:28:24.420 --> 00:28:25.059
 feel greater

00:28:25.059 --> 00:28:25.400
 than the

00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:25.819
 crime

00:28:25.819 --> 00:28:28.600
 i think it

00:28:28.600 --> 00:28:28.900
 does it

00:28:28.900 --> 00:28:29.440
 feels like

00:28:29.440 --> 00:28:29.720
 that to

00:28:29.720 --> 00:28:29.960
 me

00:28:29.960 --> 00:28:32.579
 if i

00:28:32.579 --> 00:28:33.579
 was god

00:28:33.579 --> 00:28:34.460
 i wouldn't

00:28:34.460 --> 00:28:34.759
 be like

00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:35.100
 that

00:28:35.100 --> 00:28:38.819
 and that is

00:28:38.819 --> 00:28:39.299
 only because

00:28:39.299 --> 00:28:39.880
 we just

00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:40.779
 don't understand

00:28:40.779 --> 00:28:41.420
 the seriousness

00:28:41.420 --> 00:28:42.079
 of sin

00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:42.480
 and the

00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:43.120
 holiness of

00:28:43.120 --> 00:28:43.299
 god

00:28:43.299 --> 00:28:43.700
 that's our

00:28:43.700 --> 00:28:44.059
 problem

00:28:44.059 --> 00:28:48.500
 jesus captures

00:28:48.500 --> 00:28:49.360
 the experience

00:28:49.360 --> 00:28:49.900
 of eternal

00:28:49.900 --> 00:28:50.500
 judgment in

00:28:50.500 --> 00:28:51.000
 just two

00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:51.599
 intentional

00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:52.279
 words

00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:54.640
 he captures

00:28:54.640 --> 00:28:55.019
 it in

00:28:55.019 --> 00:28:55.599
 terms of

00:28:55.599 --> 00:28:56.119
 weeping

00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:56.799
 and gnashing

00:28:56.799 --> 00:28:57.579
 and teeth

00:28:57.579 --> 00:28:59.680
 weeping

00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:00.299
 because of

00:29:00.299 --> 00:29:00.839
 the horror

00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:01.619
 of judgment

00:29:01.619 --> 00:29:03.579
 and gnashing

00:29:03.579 --> 00:29:04.380
 of teeth

00:29:04.380 --> 00:29:06.880
 because of

00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:07.519
 the ongoing

00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:08.079
 rebellion

00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:08.940
 that continues

00:29:08.940 --> 00:29:14.340
 in hell

00:29:14.340 --> 00:29:14.860
 they're not

00:29:14.860 --> 00:29:15.539
 regretting

00:29:15.539 --> 00:29:16.640
 they're not

00:29:16.640 --> 00:29:17.220
 regretting

00:29:17.220 --> 00:29:19.039
 they're still

00:29:19.039 --> 00:29:19.620
 rebellious

00:29:19.620 --> 00:29:21.620
 they gnash

00:29:21.620 --> 00:29:22.220
 their teeth

00:29:22.220 --> 00:29:24.860
 how lost

00:29:24.860 --> 00:29:25.059
 are they

00:29:25.059 --> 00:29:25.279
 lost

00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:26.140
 let me give you

00:29:26.140 --> 00:29:26.799
 seven reasons

00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:27.279
 why you need

00:29:27.279 --> 00:29:27.680
 to grasp

 this

00:29:27.900 --> 00:29:28.279
 i promise

00:29:28.279 --> 00:29:28.660
 it'll be

00:29:28.660 --> 00:29:29.279
 less than

00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:29.720
 five minutes

00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:29.980
 more

00:29:29.980 --> 00:29:31.660
 seven reasons

00:29:31.660 --> 00:29:32.140
 why we need

00:29:32.140 --> 00:29:32.580
 to grasp

00:29:32.580 --> 00:29:33.160
 this truth

00:29:33.160 --> 00:29:36.100
 number one

00:29:36.100 --> 00:29:36.460
 if you get

00:29:36.460 --> 00:29:36.960
 the question

 right

00:29:37.320 --> 00:29:37.820
 to how

00:29:37.820 --> 00:29:39.380
 lost

00:29:39.380 --> 00:29:39.720
 are the

00:29:39.720 --> 00:29:40.120
 lost

00:29:40.120 --> 00:29:42.080
 you will

00:29:42.080 --> 00:29:42.540
 grasp

00:29:42.540 --> 00:29:43.060
 grace

00:29:43.060 --> 00:29:43.620
 like never

00:29:43.620 --> 00:29:44.060
 before

00:29:44.060 --> 00:29:46.220
 and you

00:29:46.220 --> 00:29:46.720
 will never

00:29:46.720 --> 00:29:47.200
 understand

00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:47.540
 the good

00:29:47.540 --> 00:29:47.920
 news

00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:49.040
 unless you

00:29:49.040 --> 00:29:49.420
 understand

00:29:49.420 --> 00:29:49.860
 the bad

00:29:49.860 --> 00:29:52.279
 you will

00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:53.060
 hear words

00:29:53.060 --> 00:29:53.660
 like god

00:29:53.660 --> 00:29:54.279
 has forgiven

00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:54.960
 my sins

00:29:54.960 --> 00:29:55.320
 and it

00:29:55.320 --> 00:29:55.540
 will be

00:29:55.540 --> 00:29:56.100
 like water

00:29:56.100 --> 00:29:56.500
 off a

00:29:56.500 --> 00:29:56.940
 deck's

00:29:56.940 --> 00:29:57.320
 back

00:29:57.320 --> 00:29:58.420
 unless you

00:29:58.420 --> 00:29:59.200
 get the

00:29:59.200 --> 00:29:59.540
 plight

00:29:59.540 --> 00:29:59.860
 of the

00:29:59.860 --> 00:30:00.160
 lost

00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:00.460
 it will

00:30:00.460 --> 00:30:00.580
 be

00:30:00.580 --> 00:30:00.779
 like

00:30:00.779 --> 00:30:01.100
 bullets

00:30:01.100 --> 00:30:01.420
 off the

00:30:01.420 --> 00:30:01.680
 chest

00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:01.840
 of

00:30:01.840 --> 00:30:02.180
 Superman

00:30:02.180 --> 00:30:03.820
 they'll

00:30:03.820 --> 00:30:04.000
 just

00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:04.220
 bounce

00:30:04.220 --> 00:30:04.440
 off

00:30:04.440 --> 00:30:04.740
 like a

00:30:04.740 --> 00:30:05.060
 thousand

00:30:05.060 --> 00:30:06.220
 i love

00:30:06.220 --> 00:30:06.420
 you

00:30:06.420 --> 00:30:06.759
 for a

00:30:06.759 --> 00:30:07.000
 person

00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:07.200
 who's

00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:07.660
 perpetually

00:30:07.660 --> 00:30:08.100
 insecure

00:30:08.100 --> 00:30:08.519
 it has

00:30:08.519 --> 00:30:09.100
 no impact

00:30:09.100 --> 00:30:12.080
 but if you

00:30:12.080 --> 00:30:12.420
 get the

00:30:12.420 --> 00:30:12.680
 question

00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:12.980
 right

00:30:12.980 --> 00:30:13.360
 as to how

00:30:13.360 --> 00:30:13.700
 lost

00:30:13.700 --> 00:30:13.900
 the

00:30:13.900 --> 00:30:14.160
 lost

00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:14.400
 are

00:30:14.400 --> 00:30:14.540
 you

00:30:14.540 --> 00:30:14.680
 will

00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:14.980
 grasp

00:30:14.980 --> 00:30:15.279
 grace

00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:15.640
 like never

00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:15.940
 before

00:30:15.940 --> 00:30:16.460
 number two

00:30:16.460 --> 00:30:17.380
 you grasp

00:30:17.380 --> 00:30:17.820
 the answer

00:30:17.820 --> 00:30:18.200
 to this

00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:18.560
 question

00:30:18.560 --> 00:30:19.140
 how lost

00:30:19.140 --> 00:30:19.400
 are the

00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:19.720
 lost

00:30:19.720 --> 00:30:20.060
 and you

00:30:20.060 --> 00:30:20.200
 will

00:30:20.200 --> 00:30:20.519
 face

00:30:20.519 --> 00:30:20.720
 the

00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:21.100
 darkness

00:30:21.100 --> 00:30:21.460
 of your

00:30:21.460 --> 00:30:21.720
 own

00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:22.060
 soul

00:30:22.060 --> 00:30:22.440
 and the

00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:22.720
 depth

00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:23.200
 of god's

00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:23.519
 love

00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:26.040
 and it

00:30:26.040 --> 00:30:26.220
 should

00:30:26.220 --> 00:30:26.700
 turn you

00:30:26.700 --> 00:30:26.900
 if it

00:30:26.900 --> 00:30:27.200
 hasn't

00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:27.600
 already

00:30:27.600 --> 00:30:27.960
 from a

00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:28.620
 self-obsessed

00:30:28.620 --> 00:30:29.220
 middle-class

00:30:29.220 --> 00:30:29.720
 christian

00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:31.380
 into a

00:30:31.380 --> 00:30:31.819
 gloriously

00:30:31.819 --> 00:30:32.240
 joyful

00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:32.720
 soul

00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:34.960
 number three

00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:35.480
 you grasp

00:30:35.480 --> 00:30:36.080
 the severity

00:30:36.080 --> 00:30:36.360
 of the

00:30:36.360 --> 00:30:36.779
 situation

00:30:36.779 --> 00:30:37.059
 of the

00:30:37.059 --> 00:30:37.400
 lost

00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:37.900
 of what

00:30:37.900 --> 00:30:38.039
 you

00:30:38.039 --> 00:30:38.340
 once

00:30:38.340 --> 00:30:38.740
 were

00:30:38.740 --> 00:30:39.120
 and you

00:30:39.120 --> 00:30:39.559
 understand

00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:40.039
 that you

00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:40.400
 stand

00:30:40.400 --> 00:30:41.059
 shoulder to

00:30:41.059 --> 00:30:41.360
 shoulder

00:30:41.360 --> 00:30:41.680
 with the

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:42.039
 rest of

00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:42.519
 humanity

00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:45.819
 because you

00:30:45.819 --> 00:30:46.400
 understand that

00:30:46.400 --> 00:30:47.100
 christ died

00:30:47.100 --> 00:30:47.460
 for you

00:30:47.460 --> 00:30:47.860
 while you

00:30:47.860 --> 00:30:48.240
 were his

00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:48.799
 enemies

00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:51.200
 and you

00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:51.319
 will

00:30:51.319 --> 00:30:51.940
 allow to

00:30:51.940 --> 00:30:52.580
 you will

00:30:52.580 --> 00:30:53.440
 you refuse

00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:53.880
 to allow

00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:54.460
 that route

00:30:54.460 --> 00:30:54.960
 of self

00:30:54.960 --> 00:30:55.299
 righteousness

00:30:55.299 --> 00:30:55.980
 to take

00:30:55.980 --> 00:30:56.660
 control

00:30:56.660 --> 00:30:58.700
 you will

00:30:58.700 --> 00:30:59.100
 know that

00:30:59.100 --> 00:30:59.720
 the ground

00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:00.240
 at the foot

00:31:00.240 --> 00:31:00.420
 of the

00:31:00.420 --> 00:31:00.800
 cross is

00:31:00.800 --> 00:31:01.259
 very very

00:31:01.259 --> 00:31:01.700
 flat

00:31:01.700 --> 00:31:02.980
 and while

00:31:02.980 --> 00:31:03.500
 it may be

00:31:03.500 --> 00:31:03.920
 fair to

00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:04.240
 say that

00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:05.019
 some deserve

00:31:05.019 --> 00:31:05.680
 hell more

00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:06.140
 than others

00:31:06.140 --> 00:31:06.980
 you know

00:31:06.980 --> 00:31:07.420
 and I

00:31:07.420 --> 00:31:07.880
 know that

00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:08.420
 we deserve

00:31:08.420 --> 00:31:09.480
 it well

00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:09.880
 and truly

00:31:09.880 --> 00:31:12.200
 number four

00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:12.720
 you understand

00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:13.160
 the answer

00:31:13.160 --> 00:31:13.440
 to the

00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:13.900
 question

00:31:13.900 --> 00:31:15.259
 and you

00:31:15.259 --> 00:31:15.800
 will find

00:31:15.800 --> 00:31:17.860
 that you

00:31:17.860 --> 00:31:18.519
 will refuse

00:31:18.519 --> 00:31:19.200
 to withhold

00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:19.720
 forgiveness

00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:23.060
 because you

00:31:23.060 --> 00:31:23.940
 know that

00:31:23.940 --> 00:31:24.400
 no matter

00:31:24.400 --> 00:31:25.060
 how much

00:31:25.060 --> 00:31:25.560
 you have

00:31:25.560 --> 00:31:26.300
 to forgive

00:31:26.299 --> 00:31:27.919
 it will

00:31:27.919 --> 00:31:28.539
 always be

00:31:28.539 --> 00:31:28.819
 loose

00:31:28.819 --> 00:31:29.299
 change

00:31:29.299 --> 00:31:29.980
 compared

00:31:29.980 --> 00:31:31.460
 to what

00:31:31.460 --> 00:31:31.819
 God has

00:31:31.819 --> 00:31:32.079
 had to

00:31:32.079 --> 00:31:32.319
 forgive

00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:32.579
 you

00:31:32.579 --> 00:31:33.200
 and so

00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:34.200
 we can

00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:34.799
 reverently

00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:35.419
 let it

00:31:35.419 --> 00:31:35.839
 go

00:31:35.839 --> 00:31:39.039
 you grasp

00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:39.440
 the answer

00:31:39.440 --> 00:31:39.759
 to this

00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:40.119
 question

00:31:40.119 --> 00:31:40.839
 how lost

00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:41.079
 are the

00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:41.440
 lost

00:31:41.440 --> 00:31:41.779
 and you

00:31:41.779 --> 00:31:42.279
 begin to

00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:42.659
 grasp

00:31:42.659 --> 00:31:43.039
 something

00:31:43.039 --> 00:31:43.379
 of the

00:31:43.379 --> 00:31:43.639
 grief

00:31:43.639 --> 00:31:44.139
 of God

00:31:44.139 --> 00:31:46.319
 and the

00:31:46.319 --> 00:31:46.680
 pain

00:31:46.680 --> 00:31:47.059
 that your

00:31:47.059 --> 00:31:47.460
 rebellion

00:31:47.460 --> 00:31:48.000
 has caused

00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:48.279
 him

00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:50.819
 as well

00:31:50.819 --> 00:31:51.299
 as the

00:31:51.299 --> 00:31:51.899
 righteousness

00:31:51.899 --> 00:31:52.599
 and the

00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:52.960
 righteous

00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:53.440
 way

00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:53.980
 in which

00:31:53.980 --> 00:31:54.360
 he is

00:31:54.360 --> 00:31:54.720
 so

00:31:54.720 --> 00:31:55.440
 justified

00:31:55.440 --> 00:31:56.320
 he would

00:31:56.320 --> 00:31:56.740
 be so

00:31:56.740 --> 00:31:57.220
 justified

00:31:57.220 --> 00:31:57.519
 in being

00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:57.779
 able to

00:31:57.779 --> 00:31:58.160
 send any

00:31:58.160 --> 00:31:58.420
 of us

00:31:58.420 --> 00:31:58.640
 to other

00:31:58.640 --> 00:31:59.160
 darkness

00:31:59.160 --> 00:32:01.980
 number six

00:32:01.980 --> 00:32:02.480
 you grasp

00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:03.059
 how lost

00:32:03.059 --> 00:32:03.360
 are the

00:32:03.360 --> 00:32:03.680
 lost

00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:04.000
 and you

00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:04.299
 know that

00:32:04.299 --> 00:32:04.680
 whatever

00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:05.400
 suffering

00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:06.539
 has come

00:32:06.539 --> 00:32:07.259
 your way

00:32:07.259 --> 00:32:10.240
 will always

00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:10.640
 be less

00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:10.900
 than what

00:32:10.900 --> 00:32:11.460
 you deserve

00:32:11.460 --> 00:32:15.539
 and number

00:32:15.539 --> 00:32:15.840
 seven

00:32:15.840 --> 00:32:16.500
 you grasp

00:32:16.500 --> 00:32:17.019
 the answer

00:32:17.019 --> 00:32:17.380
 to this

00:32:17.380 --> 00:32:17.860
 question

00:32:17.859 --> 00:32:19.699
 and you

00:32:19.699 --> 00:32:20.099
 grasp

00:32:20.099 --> 00:32:20.339
 the

00:32:20.339 --> 00:32:20.699
 urgency

00:32:20.699 --> 00:32:20.939
 of

00:32:20.939 --> 00:32:21.299
 mission

00:32:21.299 --> 00:32:26.599
 because

00:32:26.599 --> 00:32:27.019
 we will

00:32:27.019 --> 00:32:27.500
 understand

00:32:27.500 --> 00:32:27.899
 that the

00:32:27.899 --> 00:32:28.359
 souls of

00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:28.740
 our loved

00:32:28.740 --> 00:32:29.240
 ones hang

00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:29.459
 in the

00:32:29.459 --> 00:32:29.899
 balance

00:32:29.899 --> 00:32:33.419
 will the

00:32:33.419 --> 00:32:34.359
 next phase

00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:34.740
 of your

00:32:34.740 --> 00:32:35.219
 life

00:32:35.219 --> 00:32:36.259
 be like

00:32:36.259 --> 00:32:36.599
 the last

00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:36.819
 one

00:32:36.819 --> 00:32:39.899
 will the

00:32:39.899 --> 00:32:40.699
 days in

00:32:40.699 --> 00:32:41.139
 front of

00:32:41.139 --> 00:32:41.500
 you

00:32:41.500 --> 00:32:43.479
 be days

00:32:43.479 --> 00:32:44.079
 where you've

00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:44.639
 made yourself

00:32:44.639 --> 00:32:45.299
 deaf to the

00:32:45.299 --> 00:32:45.639
 plight of

00:32:45.639 --> 00:32:46.039
 the lost

00:32:46.039 --> 00:32:48.659
 will you

00:32:48.659 --> 00:32:49.420
 refuse to

00:32:49.420 --> 00:32:50.000
 hear and

00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:50.500
 ponder their

00:32:50.500 --> 00:32:50.980
 destiny

00:32:50.980 --> 00:32:54.599
 and so the

00:32:54.599 --> 00:32:55.019
 question

00:32:55.019 --> 00:32:56.839
 that our

00:32:56.839 --> 00:32:57.659
 friends should

00:32:57.659 --> 00:32:58.460
 ask us

00:32:58.460 --> 00:33:00.639
 is if you

00:33:00.639 --> 00:33:01.440
 really believe

00:33:01.440 --> 00:33:01.839
 us

00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:04.200
 if you really

00:33:04.200 --> 00:33:04.799
 believe in

00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:05.240
 hell

00:33:05.240 --> 00:33:07.399
 if you really

00:33:07.399 --> 00:33:07.899
 believe that

00:33:07.899 --> 00:33:08.460
 because I don't

00:33:08.460 --> 00:33:08.920
 believe in

00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:10.180
 Jesus I'm

00:33:10.180 --> 00:33:10.440
 going to

00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:10.759
 hell

00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:12.940
 why haven't

00:33:12.940 --> 00:33:13.259
 you told

00:33:13.259 --> 00:33:13.519
 me

00:33:13.519 --> 00:33:19.900
 let me

00:33:19.900 --> 00:33:20.519
 speak to

00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:20.920
 you tonight

00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:21.400
 if you

00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:21.559
 have

00:33:21.559 --> 00:33:21.940
 realized

00:33:21.940 --> 00:33:22.460
 during this

00:33:22.460 --> 00:33:22.759
 sermon

00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:24.940
 that you

00:33:24.940 --> 00:33:25.400
 are outside

00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:26.019
 of Christ

00:33:26.019 --> 00:33:28.299
 and the

00:33:28.299 --> 00:33:28.639
 words of

00:33:28.639 --> 00:33:28.980
 Ephesians

00:33:28.980 --> 00:33:29.400
 to you

00:33:29.400 --> 00:33:29.859
 are without

00:33:29.859 --> 00:33:30.180
 God

00:33:30.180 --> 00:33:30.480
 and without

00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:30.819
 hope

00:33:30.819 --> 00:33:33.500
 and you

00:33:33.500 --> 00:33:33.839
 are dead

00:33:33.839 --> 00:33:34.079
 in your

00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:34.579
 trespasses

00:33:34.579 --> 00:33:35.059
 and sins

00:33:35.059 --> 00:33:35.379
 and you

00:33:35.379 --> 00:33:35.900
 followed the

00:33:35.900 --> 00:33:36.319
 course of

00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:36.700
 the world

00:33:36.700 --> 00:33:36.980
 and you

00:33:36.980 --> 00:33:37.480
 followed the

00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:37.879
 prince of

00:33:37.879 --> 00:33:38.200
 the power

00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:38.720
 of the air

00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:40.299
 and at

00:33:40.299 --> 00:33:41.000
 this moment

00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:41.700
 you are

00:33:41.700 --> 00:33:41.900
 under

00:33:41.900 --> 00:33:42.220
 God's

00:33:42.220 --> 00:33:42.519
 wrath

00:33:42.519 --> 00:33:44.740
 let me

00:33:44.740 --> 00:33:45.059
 say do you

00:33:45.059 --> 00:33:45.500
 remember the

00:33:45.500 --> 00:33:45.880
 children's

00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:46.079
 talk

00:33:46.079 --> 00:33:48.680
 because do you

00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:49.099
 remember that

00:33:49.099 --> 00:33:49.839
 verse for it

00:33:49.839 --> 00:33:50.660
 is by grace

00:33:50.660 --> 00:33:51.720
 you have been

00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:52.440
 saved through

00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:52.859
 faith

00:33:52.859 --> 00:33:54.839
 and this is

00:33:54.839 --> 00:33:55.380
 not your own

00:33:55.380 --> 00:33:55.839
 doing it is

00:33:55.839 --> 00:33:56.279
 the gift of

00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:56.559
 God

00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:59.700
 and so

00:33:59.700 --> 00:34:00.980
 we take

00:34:00.980 --> 00:34:01.519
 Jesus

00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:04.180
 and we

00:34:04.180 --> 00:34:04.660
 cling to

00:34:04.660 --> 00:34:05.079
 Jesus

00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:06.859
 and we

00:34:06.859 --> 00:34:07.380
 trust in

00:34:07.380 --> 00:34:07.799
 Jesus

00:34:07.799 --> 00:34:09.619
 and we

00:34:09.619 --> 00:34:10.179
 rely on

00:34:10.179 --> 00:34:10.639
 Jesus

00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:12.500
 and we

00:34:12.500 --> 00:34:12.980
 recognize

00:34:12.980 --> 00:34:13.899
 that he

00:34:13.899 --> 00:34:14.399
 was

00:34:14.399 --> 00:34:15.259
 forsaken

00:34:15.259 --> 00:34:18.019
 so that

00:34:18.019 --> 00:34:18.639
 you don't

00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:19.159
 have to be

00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:19.619
 forsaken

00:34:19.619 --> 00:34:22.259
 and as we

00:34:22.259 --> 00:34:22.899
 sang in our

00:34:22.899 --> 00:34:23.359
 last hymn

00:34:23.359 --> 00:34:23.940
 this morning

00:34:23.940 --> 00:34:24.639
 for those

00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:25.099
 who are in

00:34:25.099 --> 00:34:25.519
 Christ

00:34:25.519 --> 00:34:26.259
 the fears

00:34:26.259 --> 00:34:27.119
 of law

00:34:27.119 --> 00:34:27.899
 of hell

00:34:27.899 --> 00:34:28.259
 and of

00:34:28.259 --> 00:34:28.739
 God

00:34:28.739 --> 00:34:29.239
 with me

00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:29.579
 can have

00:34:29.579 --> 00:34:30.139
 nothing to

00:34:30.139 --> 00:34:30.359
 do

00:34:30.359 --> 00:34:32.699
 because in

00:34:32.699 --> 00:34:33.259
 Jesus Christ

00:34:33.259 --> 00:34:33.699
 there is no

00:34:33.699 --> 00:34:34.339
 condemnation

00:34:34.339 --> 00:34:37.799
 and so

00:34:37.799 --> 00:34:38.460
 will you

00:34:38.460 --> 00:34:40.780
 turn to

00:34:40.780 --> 00:34:41.099
 him

00:34:41.099 --> 00:34:42.940
 and trust

00:34:42.940 --> 00:34:43.420
 in him

00:34:43.420 --> 00:34:45.599
 and rely

00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:46.059
 on him

00:34:46.059 --> 00:34:47.639
 let's pray

00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:49.759
 to

00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:49.759


00:34:49.759 --> 00:34:50.159
 to

00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159


00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:50.159
