00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.219
 What would it take for you to put your trust in someone and follow them?

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:16.199
 For me, the reputation and credential of the person is an essential factor.

00:00:17.940 --> 00:00:22.460
 Do the actions of those people match the words that come out from their mouth?

00:00:23.339 --> 00:00:29.160
 But I think I relied on the witness and testimony of other people more.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:35.259
 Does anyone that I know and trust also follow that person?

00:00:36.179 --> 00:00:38.799
 What is their experience with that person?

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.980
 We'll be spending a few weeks in chapter 1 to 12 of the Gospel of John

00:00:44.980 --> 00:00:49.340
 to read his testimony and witness about Jesus Christ.

00:00:50.340 --> 00:00:54.980
 John wrote to show his readers the greatness of Jesus Christ.

00:00:54.980 --> 00:00:58.340
 He warned us to see Jesus as glorious.

00:00:58.340 --> 00:01:06.520
 By seeing his glory and examining the evidence of who he claims himself to be,

00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.340
 John hopes that we'll become a believer and follower,

00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:13.300
 in other terms, a disciple of Jesus.

00:01:13.980 --> 00:01:15.800
 And as you follow Jesus,

00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:20.300
 and when Jesus becomes more central to your life,

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:22.140
 your life will be abundant.

00:01:22.140 --> 00:01:26.560
 Jesus himself also has the same aim in mind

00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:29.960
 as he walked on this earth more than 2,000 years ago,

00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.120
 and as he now sits by the right hands of our Heavenly Father

00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:37.739
 to intercede for those who put their trust in him.

00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:41.640
 He told his disciples that he had come

00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:45.900
 so that his disciples may have life and have it abundantly.

00:01:45.900 --> 00:01:51.380
 Today, as we continue in chapter 1 and 2 of John,

00:01:51.740 --> 00:01:56.000
 let's look at Jesus' invitation to his very first group of disciples

00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:59.380
 and two aspects of who Jesus is.

00:01:59.880 --> 00:02:03.700
 You can find the outline in our St. Paul's app.

00:02:03.700 --> 00:02:10.479
 Last week, our senior minister, Steve, encouraged us

00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:14.420
 and invited us to look, to behold, to think,

00:02:14.939 --> 00:02:18.580
 and gaze, ponder, understand, and get who Jesus is

00:02:18.580 --> 00:02:19.879
 and what he has done.

00:02:20.740 --> 00:02:23.920
 He ended the sermon with these two points.

00:02:24.659 --> 00:02:25.900
 If you missed the preaching,

00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:30.980
 I encourage you to look up the St. Paul's Chesswood channel on YouTube

00:02:30.979 --> 00:02:34.099
 and to watch it again or go to our website to listen.

00:02:35.399 --> 00:02:39.819
 Firstly, how much we will align our life with Jesus

00:02:39.819 --> 00:02:41.759
 and grow in abundant life

00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:46.519
 is directly proportional to how much we behold Jesus,

00:02:47.259 --> 00:02:49.579
 look to Jesus, and understand Jesus.

00:02:50.659 --> 00:02:54.179
 We will be filled with all the fullness of God

00:02:54.179 --> 00:02:58.439
 as we grasp the breadth, length, height, and depth

00:02:58.439 --> 00:02:59.620
 of the love of Christ.

00:02:59.620 --> 00:03:04.900
 And to the degree that we grow in the abundant life

00:03:04.900 --> 00:03:08.719
 is a degree that we too will be a voice

00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.300
 to the greatness and goodness of Jesus Christ.

00:03:12.340 --> 00:03:14.379
 We will see from today's passage

00:03:14.379 --> 00:03:18.879
 how this proposition unfolds in two persons

00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:20.000
 we will meet today.

00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:23.439
 So please turn your Bible to John 1.35.

00:03:24.640 --> 00:03:26.060
 John 1.35.

00:03:26.060 --> 00:03:31.979
 When two of John the Baptist's disciples heard him referring to Jesus again,

00:03:32.340 --> 00:03:34.199
 saying, look, the Lamb of God.

00:03:34.900 --> 00:03:36.219
 They followed Jesus.

00:03:37.340 --> 00:03:38.900
 And our passage shows us that

00:03:38.900 --> 00:03:41.640
 Jesus took notice that they were following.

00:03:42.460 --> 00:03:44.840
 In verse 38, it says,

00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:46.099
 Jesus saw them.

00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:49.960
 Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked,

00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:51.340
 what do you want?

00:03:52.819 --> 00:03:56.439
 I want us to pause and try to imagine

00:03:56.439 --> 00:04:00.980
 what tone Jesus would use to ask this simple question.

00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:07.439
 Whichever way I imagine,

00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:09.300
 I still find the question,

00:04:09.819 --> 00:04:10.500
 what do you want?

00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:11.259
 A bit abrupt

00:04:11.259 --> 00:04:14.599
 and challenging to say it in a friendly way.

00:04:15.500 --> 00:04:17.019
 But it does not sound rude.

00:04:18.500 --> 00:04:19.939
 When I hear the question,

00:04:20.579 --> 00:04:22.620
 I can only think of the time

00:04:22.620 --> 00:04:24.259
 when my kids are much younger

00:04:24.259 --> 00:04:26.699
 and try to net me for something.

00:04:27.220 --> 00:04:29.019
 And that's how I answer or question them.

00:04:29.159 --> 00:04:29.680
 What do you want?

00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:35.300
 There will be another one of this kind of interaction

00:04:35.300 --> 00:04:37.600
 in the later part of our passage today.

00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:41.620
 How are you going to read the Bible?

00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:45.639
 How are you doing with reading the Bible?

00:04:46.100 --> 00:04:47.060
 Nick mentioned about

00:04:47.060 --> 00:04:49.560
 we encourage each other to read the Bible

00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:50.960
 and build a habit of reading

00:04:50.960 --> 00:04:52.600
 at least four or more times a week.

00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:54.560
 Are you a morning reader?

00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:56.280
 Reading your Bible in the morning?

00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.119
 Or evening reader

00:04:58.119 --> 00:05:00.559
 who has a Bible by your bed

00:05:00.559 --> 00:05:02.199
 and read before you sleep

00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:03.859
 or finish the day.

00:05:04.459 --> 00:05:06.299
 Maybe you read the Bible during the day

00:05:06.299 --> 00:05:07.539
 or maybe during lunchtime.

00:05:08.039 --> 00:05:09.159
 As you read the Bible,

00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.699
 how often would you pause and slow down?

00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:16.399
 Especially if it's some kind of dialogue

00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:18.979
 or passage that you have read before.

00:05:20.059 --> 00:05:23.000
 Do you ever consider what tone of voice

00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:25.339
 the people you are reading would use?

00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:29.519
 I believe our own culture and background

00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:32.159
 or whether we are reading the Bible

00:05:32.159 --> 00:05:34.779
 in a language that is not our hard language

00:05:34.779 --> 00:05:36.919
 may affect how we read the Bible.

00:05:37.639 --> 00:05:38.959
 We need to take care

00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:42.399
 not to read into what is in front of us.

00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:44.759
 Something that may originate

00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:46.799
 from our own culture and background

00:05:46.799 --> 00:05:48.119
 that is not helpful,

00:05:48.559 --> 00:05:49.959
 which may hinder us

00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:51.719
 from seeing the complete picture.

00:05:53.239 --> 00:05:54.739
 Pause and think.

00:05:54.740 --> 00:05:56.960
 Pause to imagine.

00:05:58.060 --> 00:05:59.379
 And use something like the app,

00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:01.259
 the word one-to-one,

00:06:01.460 --> 00:06:03.319
 which would be an excellent way of you

00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:05.000
 to behold Jesus better.

00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:07.600
 Pause and ask yourself,

00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:10.019
 is the perception of Jesus

00:06:10.019 --> 00:06:12.139
 really who he is?

00:06:12.620 --> 00:06:13.879
 Or are you making Jesus

00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:15.519
 into what you want him to be?

00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:18.240
 I hope as you listen

00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:19.779
 to this series of preaching

00:06:19.779 --> 00:06:22.439
 from the first 12th chapter of John,

00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:24.919
 you will see Jesus as who he is,

00:06:25.219 --> 00:06:26.939
 not what you want him to be.

00:06:28.019 --> 00:06:29.419
 Getting back to the question

00:06:29.419 --> 00:06:31.359
 Jesus asked the two disciples

00:06:31.359 --> 00:06:32.879
 of John the Baptist

00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:34.519
 as he saw them following.

00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:37.779
 Apart from the tone that he was used,

00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:41.379
 which is maybe hard to conclude,

00:06:41.379 --> 00:06:43.100
 we can also consider

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:45.339
 why Jesus took that moment

00:06:45.339 --> 00:06:47.180
 to turn around and ask them,

00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:48.339
 what do you want,

00:06:48.659 --> 00:06:49.939
 after he saw them following.

00:06:51.699 --> 00:06:53.639
 John Carson commented that,

00:06:54.139 --> 00:06:54.920
 on one level,

00:06:55.399 --> 00:06:56.060
 what do you want

00:06:56.060 --> 00:06:57.779
 can be a straightforward narrative

00:06:57.779 --> 00:06:59.219
 to invite them

00:06:59.219 --> 00:07:01.639
 to articulate what is on their mind

00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:02.719
 while following Jesus.

00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:04.600
 However,

00:07:05.500 --> 00:07:06.520
 it may also be

00:07:06.520 --> 00:07:07.820
 John's intention

00:07:07.820 --> 00:07:09.580
 to guide his reader

00:07:09.580 --> 00:07:10.660
 to reflect

00:07:10.660 --> 00:07:12.840
 on more profound questions.

00:07:14.580 --> 00:07:15.680
 It might be that

00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:16.200
 the word,

00:07:16.300 --> 00:07:17.000
 the Logos,

00:07:17.460 --> 00:07:18.140
 the Messiah

00:07:18.140 --> 00:07:19.380
 who comes to take away

00:07:19.380 --> 00:07:20.340
 the sin of the world,

00:07:20.880 --> 00:07:22.060
 confronts those

00:07:22.060 --> 00:07:23.740
 who make any show

00:07:23.740 --> 00:07:25.640
 of beginning to follow him

00:07:25.640 --> 00:07:27.800
 and demands that they articulate

00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.440
 what they really want in life.

00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:33.840
 When was the last time

00:07:33.840 --> 00:07:35.200
 you think about such question,

00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:37.400
 about what do you really want

00:07:37.400 --> 00:07:38.140
 in your life?

00:07:39.180 --> 00:07:40.720
 What do you really want

00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:41.560
 from Jesus

00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:42.680
 as you follow him?

00:07:43.640 --> 00:07:44.340
 Why are you here

00:07:44.340 --> 00:07:45.520
 at church on Sunday

00:07:45.520 --> 00:07:46.400
 or any,

00:07:46.780 --> 00:07:47.320
 on today

00:07:47.320 --> 00:07:48.280
 or any other Sunday?

00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:50.440
 They told Jesus that

00:07:50.440 --> 00:07:52.720
 they want to know

00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:53.820
 where Jesus was staying.

00:07:55.340 --> 00:07:57.020
 These two disciples of John,

00:07:57.860 --> 00:07:59.000
 they reply,

00:07:59.320 --> 00:08:00.560
 demonstrate their intention

00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:01.900
 to follow Jesus

00:08:01.899 --> 00:08:03.679
 because at that time,

00:08:04.259 --> 00:08:06.159
 unlike ancient China,

00:08:07.599 --> 00:08:09.259
 students often move in

00:08:09.259 --> 00:08:10.620
 to stay with their teachers

00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:12.819
 so they want to check out

00:08:12.819 --> 00:08:13.759
 where they're going to live

00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:14.799
 later on.

00:08:15.819 --> 00:08:16.959
 In today's term,

00:08:17.699 --> 00:08:19.179
 asking where Jesus is staying

00:08:19.179 --> 00:08:20.279
 is like us

00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:20.939
 checking out

00:08:20.939 --> 00:08:21.759
 our kids' school

00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:23.019
 on orientation day

00:08:23.019 --> 00:08:24.539
 or going to all week

00:08:24.539 --> 00:08:26.060
 before you attend university.

00:08:26.699 --> 00:08:27.819
 You want to check out

00:08:27.819 --> 00:08:28.399
 the place,

00:08:28.919 --> 00:08:30.419
 you want to check it out

00:08:30.420 --> 00:08:31.360
 for your kids

00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:32.019
 or yourself

00:08:32.019 --> 00:08:33.620
 before taking the next step

00:08:33.620 --> 00:08:34.759
 to be fully committed.

00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:37.200
 And Jesus saw

00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:37.920
 their intention,

00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:39.340
 he invited them

00:08:39.340 --> 00:08:40.379
 to,

00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:42.539
 his invitation to them

00:08:42.539 --> 00:08:42.940
 was,

00:08:43.340 --> 00:08:44.480
 come and you will see.

00:08:45.779 --> 00:08:46.940
 And they went

00:08:46.940 --> 00:08:48.539
 and remained with Jesus

00:08:48.539 --> 00:08:49.879
 for the whole day.

00:08:50.620 --> 00:08:51.440
 They are invited

00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:53.300
 to come and see the Lord.

00:08:54.920 --> 00:08:55.960
 There is an invitation

00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:56.740
 for us

00:08:56.740 --> 00:08:57.940
 as we come

00:08:57.940 --> 00:08:58.960
 to consider Jesus.

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:01.000
 It's not just

00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:01.740
 an invitation

00:09:01.740 --> 00:09:02.960
 for those who are

00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:03.800
 not Christian,

00:09:04.620 --> 00:09:05.680
 but it's an invitation

00:09:05.680 --> 00:09:06.920
 for Christians as well.

00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:08.639
 It's an invitation

00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:10.220
 for meditation

00:09:10.220 --> 00:09:11.320
 and reflection

00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:12.160
 on Christ.

00:09:13.160 --> 00:09:14.259
 That invitation

00:09:14.259 --> 00:09:15.420
 still stands today.

00:09:16.100 --> 00:09:17.600
 Jesus is asking you now,

00:09:18.180 --> 00:09:18.980
 what do you want?

00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:20.519
 And inviting you

00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:21.680
 to come and see

00:09:21.680 --> 00:09:22.560
 who he is

00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:24.719
 and what he has

00:09:24.719 --> 00:09:25.899
 accomplished for you.

00:09:28.419 --> 00:09:29.739
 At these two disciples

00:09:29.739 --> 00:09:30.199
 of John

00:09:30.199 --> 00:09:31.599
 find out who Jesus is.

00:09:31.979 --> 00:09:32.639
 One of them

00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:33.539
 named Andrew

00:09:33.539 --> 00:09:34.639
 goes and finds

00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:35.619
 his brother Simon

00:09:35.619 --> 00:09:36.919
 and brings him

00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:37.500
 to Jesus.

00:09:39.139 --> 00:09:40.179
 Andrew has become

00:09:40.179 --> 00:09:40.899
 the voice

00:09:40.899 --> 00:09:41.939
 of the greatness

00:09:41.939 --> 00:09:42.659
 and goodness

00:09:42.659 --> 00:09:43.559
 of Jesus Christ

00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:44.779
 after spending

00:09:44.779 --> 00:09:45.679
 a day with him

00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:47.000
 like his previous

00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:47.419
 teacher,

00:09:47.579 --> 00:09:48.139
 John the Baptist.

00:09:49.259 --> 00:09:50.199
 We are told

00:09:50.199 --> 00:09:51.399
 in verse 43

00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:52.219
 to 46

00:09:52.220 --> 00:09:54.740
 that another person,

00:09:55.060 --> 00:09:55.379
 Philip,

00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:56.840
 also went

00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:57.899
 and found Nathaniel

00:09:57.899 --> 00:09:59.019
 and brought him

00:09:59.019 --> 00:09:59.759
 to Jesus.

00:10:01.899 --> 00:10:02.940
 Philip even used

00:10:02.940 --> 00:10:04.440
 the very similar phrase

00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:05.420
 that Jesus used,

00:10:05.860 --> 00:10:06.700
 come and see,

00:10:07.820 --> 00:10:08.480
 and extended

00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:09.519
 Jesus' invitation

00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:10.759
 to Nathaniel

00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:12.480
 even after he made

00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:13.720
 some degrading comment

00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:14.840
 about where

00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:15.700
 Jesus is from.

00:10:17.660 --> 00:10:18.480
 From Jesus'

00:10:18.660 --> 00:10:19.180
 interaction

00:10:19.180 --> 00:10:20.860
 with Nathaniel

00:10:20.860 --> 00:10:22.840
 between verse 47

00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:23.680
 to the end

00:10:23.680 --> 00:10:24.680
 of chapter 1,

00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:26.360
 we see how Jesus

00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:28.080
 is all-knowing.

00:10:29.500 --> 00:10:30.320
 Or if we use

00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:30.759
 one of those

00:10:30.759 --> 00:10:31.580
 big words,

00:10:32.659 --> 00:10:33.580
 we can see Jesus

00:10:33.580 --> 00:10:34.620
 is omniscient.

00:10:35.539 --> 00:10:36.379
 Let's read that

00:10:36.379 --> 00:10:37.300
 interaction again.

00:10:37.299 --> 00:10:40.120
 When Jesus saw

00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.099
 Nathaniel approaching,

00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:42.439
 he said to him,

00:10:43.079 --> 00:10:43.699
 He truly

00:10:43.699 --> 00:10:44.939
 is an Israelite

00:10:44.939 --> 00:10:45.599
 in whom

00:10:45.599 --> 00:10:46.620
 there is no disease.

00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:49.219
 How do you know me?

00:10:49.359 --> 00:10:50.159
 Nathaniel asked.

00:10:50.699 --> 00:10:51.319
 Jesus answered,

00:10:51.579 --> 00:10:52.379
 I saw you

00:10:52.379 --> 00:10:53.159
 while you were

00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:54.459
 still under the fig tree

00:10:54.459 --> 00:10:55.639
 before Philip

00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:56.299
 calls you.

00:10:57.639 --> 00:10:58.899
 Then Nathaniel declared,

00:10:59.079 --> 00:10:59.359
 Rabbi,

00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:01.000
 you are the son of God,

00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:02.019
 you are the king

00:11:02.019 --> 00:11:02.519
 of Israel.

00:11:03.599 --> 00:11:04.299
 Jesus said,

00:11:04.299 --> 00:11:05.139
 you believe

00:11:05.139 --> 00:11:06.139
 because I told you

00:11:06.139 --> 00:11:06.779
 I saw you

00:11:06.779 --> 00:11:07.659
 under the fig tree.

00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:08.539
 You will see

00:11:08.539 --> 00:11:09.179
 greater things

00:11:09.179 --> 00:11:09.679
 than that.

00:11:11.199 --> 00:11:12.500
 I saw you

00:11:12.500 --> 00:11:13.439
 while you were

00:11:13.439 --> 00:11:14.620
 still under the fig tree

00:11:14.620 --> 00:11:15.639
 before Philip

00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:16.240
 called you.

00:11:17.179 --> 00:11:17.959
 Do you notice

00:11:17.959 --> 00:11:18.659
 a word that

00:11:18.659 --> 00:11:20.459
 John keeps using

00:11:20.459 --> 00:11:21.620
 as he encourages

00:11:21.620 --> 00:11:22.240
 his reader

00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:23.459
 to look to Jesus?

00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:25.859
 It mentioned

00:11:25.859 --> 00:11:26.779
 John the Baptist

00:11:26.779 --> 00:11:28.439
 saw Jesus passing

00:11:28.439 --> 00:11:29.979
 and the two

00:11:29.979 --> 00:11:30.779
 of his disciples

00:11:30.779 --> 00:11:31.859
 went and saw

00:11:31.859 --> 00:11:32.759
 where Jesus

00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:33.479
 was staying.

00:11:34.299 --> 00:11:36.159
 John also highlighted

00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:37.179
 that Jesus saw

00:11:37.179 --> 00:11:37.779
 the two of

00:11:37.779 --> 00:11:38.699
 John's disciples

00:11:38.699 --> 00:11:39.299
 following

00:11:39.299 --> 00:11:40.319
 and Jesus

00:11:40.319 --> 00:11:41.419
 saw Nathaniel

00:11:41.419 --> 00:11:42.199
 while he was

00:11:42.199 --> 00:11:42.759
 still under

00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:43.419
 the fig tree

00:11:43.419 --> 00:11:44.519
 before Philip

00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:45.159
 calls him.

00:11:46.719 --> 00:11:48.000
 I saw you

00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:49.339
 is such a simple

00:11:49.339 --> 00:11:49.919
 face

00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:51.159
 but it also

00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:52.240
 is so rich

00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:53.500
 and manifested.

00:11:54.740 --> 00:11:55.779
 I believe

00:11:55.779 --> 00:11:56.240
 it also

00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:57.139
 can be a good

00:11:57.139 --> 00:11:58.099
 revealer

00:11:58.099 --> 00:11:58.979
 of what's going

00:11:58.979 --> 00:12:00.000
 on in our hearts.

00:12:02.139 --> 00:12:03.539
 I saw you

00:12:03.539 --> 00:12:05.139
 an image

00:12:05.139 --> 00:12:06.240
 of parents

00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:07.459
 playing high

00:12:07.459 --> 00:12:07.899
 and sick

00:12:07.899 --> 00:12:08.559
 and pick-a-poo

00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:09.980
 with their children

00:12:09.980 --> 00:12:11.039
 coming to mind.

00:12:11.659 --> 00:12:12.199
 The laughter

00:12:12.199 --> 00:12:12.899
 and joy

00:12:12.899 --> 00:12:13.919
 in their playful

00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:14.599
 interaction

00:12:14.599 --> 00:12:16.059
 are so contagious.

00:12:17.819 --> 00:12:18.539
 It can also

00:12:18.539 --> 00:12:19.279
 be a marker

00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:20.299
 of the beginning

00:12:20.299 --> 00:12:21.219
 of a relationship

00:12:21.219 --> 00:12:22.599
 as if someone

00:12:22.599 --> 00:12:23.079
 would say

00:12:23.079 --> 00:12:24.360
 when I saw you

00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:25.159
 the first time

00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:26.319
 I fall in love

00:12:26.319 --> 00:12:26.740
 with you.

00:12:27.179 --> 00:12:27.819
 That's my wife

00:12:27.819 --> 00:12:28.179
 over there.

00:12:28.179 --> 00:12:33.019
 On the other hand

00:12:33.019 --> 00:12:34.579
 if you know

00:12:34.579 --> 00:12:35.239
 that you have

00:12:35.239 --> 00:12:35.739
 done something

00:12:35.739 --> 00:12:36.199
 wrong

00:12:36.199 --> 00:12:37.659
 something you

00:12:37.659 --> 00:12:38.179
 should not have

00:12:38.179 --> 00:12:38.459
 done

00:12:38.459 --> 00:12:39.179
 or you have

00:12:39.179 --> 00:12:39.799
 not fulfilled

00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:40.199
 what you

00:12:40.199 --> 00:12:40.659
 ought to have

00:12:40.659 --> 00:12:41.199
 done

00:12:41.199 --> 00:12:42.159
 hearing their

00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:42.559
 face

00:12:42.559 --> 00:12:43.679
 can bring up

00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:44.059
 so much

00:12:44.059 --> 00:12:44.579
 worry

00:12:44.579 --> 00:12:45.679
 fear

00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:46.620
 anxiety

00:12:46.620 --> 00:12:47.719
 and guilt.

00:12:49.339 --> 00:12:50.620
 I saw you

00:12:50.620 --> 00:12:51.719
 can be comforting

00:12:51.719 --> 00:12:52.639
 and reassuring

00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:54.159
 especially to

00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:54.599
 someone

00:12:54.599 --> 00:12:55.620
 who may be

00:12:55.620 --> 00:12:56.539
 at a crossroad

00:12:56.539 --> 00:12:57.219
 or a dana

00:12:57.219 --> 00:12:59.079
 feeling all alone

00:12:59.079 --> 00:12:59.959
 questioning

00:12:59.959 --> 00:13:00.959
 all the things

00:13:00.959 --> 00:13:02.299
 that are happening

00:13:02.299 --> 00:13:03.039
 in their life

00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:05.779
 where there

00:13:05.779 --> 00:13:06.379
 seems to be

00:13:06.379 --> 00:13:07.099
 no one

00:13:07.099 --> 00:13:07.939
 who care

00:13:07.939 --> 00:13:09.899
 or take notice

00:13:09.899 --> 00:13:10.480
 of the pain

00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:10.959
 and suffering

00:13:10.959 --> 00:13:11.659
 you are going

00:13:11.659 --> 00:13:12.120
 through

00:13:12.120 --> 00:13:13.339
 having someone

00:13:13.339 --> 00:13:14.240
 to say to you

00:13:14.240 --> 00:13:15.099
 I saw you

00:13:15.099 --> 00:13:16.319
 could mean so much.

00:13:17.699 --> 00:13:18.639
 I believe

00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:19.419
 Nathaniel

00:13:19.419 --> 00:13:19.980
 may be going

00:13:19.980 --> 00:13:20.439
 through one

00:13:20.439 --> 00:13:21.240
 of those moments

00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:22.319
 under the fig tree

00:13:22.319 --> 00:13:24.419
 but he followed

00:13:24.419 --> 00:13:24.939
 Philip

00:13:24.939 --> 00:13:26.000
 to go and see

00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:26.480
 Jesus

00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:29.039
 but he was

00:13:29.039 --> 00:13:29.420
 seen

00:13:29.420 --> 00:13:30.340
 by Jesus

00:13:30.340 --> 00:13:31.399
 before he

00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:31.899
 got there.

00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:33.700
 Jesus

00:13:33.700 --> 00:13:34.100
 knows

00:13:34.100 --> 00:13:34.740
 Nathaniel

00:13:34.740 --> 00:13:35.480
 and tell him

00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:36.340
 that he

00:13:36.340 --> 00:13:37.060
 saw him

00:13:37.060 --> 00:13:37.740
 while he

00:13:37.740 --> 00:13:38.220
 was alone

00:13:38.220 --> 00:13:39.139
 under the fig tree

00:13:39.139 --> 00:13:41.700
 and that's

00:13:41.700 --> 00:13:42.019
 what

00:13:42.019 --> 00:13:42.940
 Jesus

00:13:42.940 --> 00:13:43.620
 is saying

00:13:43.620 --> 00:13:44.180
 to you

00:13:44.180 --> 00:13:44.600
 and me.

00:13:46.060 --> 00:13:46.300
 Jesus

00:13:46.300 --> 00:13:47.420
 has supernatural

00:13:47.420 --> 00:13:47.960
 knowledge

00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:48.500
 of what is

00:13:48.500 --> 00:13:49.000
 going on

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:49.279
 in your

00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:49.680
 world

00:13:49.680 --> 00:13:50.519
 and he

00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:51.000
 does not

00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:51.399
 hold

00:13:51.399 --> 00:13:52.120
 any of

00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:52.279
 that

00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:52.620
 knowledge

00:13:52.620 --> 00:13:53.060
 against

00:13:53.060 --> 00:13:53.379
 you

00:13:53.379 --> 00:13:53.820
 or me.

00:13:54.659 --> 00:13:55.399
 No need

00:13:55.399 --> 00:13:55.759
 to be

00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:56.279
 embarrassed

00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:56.819
 about what

00:13:56.819 --> 00:13:57.179
 is going

00:13:57.179 --> 00:13:57.500
 on in

00:13:57.500 --> 00:13:58.000
 your mind.

00:13:58.740 --> 00:13:58.980
 Jesus

00:13:58.980 --> 00:13:59.699
 saw you

00:13:59.699 --> 00:14:00.840
 and he

00:14:00.840 --> 00:14:01.120
 is the

00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:01.480
 answer

00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:02.179
 to all

00:14:02.179 --> 00:14:02.319
 the

00:14:02.319 --> 00:14:02.679
 questions

00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:02.899
 you

00:14:02.899 --> 00:14:03.120
 have

00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:03.379
 about

00:14:03.379 --> 00:14:03.620
 your

00:14:03.620 --> 00:14:04.019
 life

00:14:04.019 --> 00:14:04.220
 and

00:14:04.220 --> 00:14:04.379
 your

00:14:04.379 --> 00:14:04.720
 world.

00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:06.240
 Jesus

00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:07.199
 does not

00:14:07.199 --> 00:14:07.579
 use

00:14:07.579 --> 00:14:08.120
 his

00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:08.500
 knowledge

00:14:08.500 --> 00:14:09.100
 about you

00:14:09.100 --> 00:14:10.220
 to control

00:14:10.220 --> 00:14:11.100
 or manipulate

00:14:11.100 --> 00:14:11.580
 you.

00:14:12.180 --> 00:14:12.320
 He

00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:12.639
 loves

00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:12.940
 you.

00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:15.600
 Jesus

00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:16.279
 is all

00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:16.720
 knowing

00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:17.420
 with

00:14:17.420 --> 00:14:18.019
 supernatural

00:14:18.019 --> 00:14:18.639
 knowledge.

00:14:19.240 --> 00:14:19.360
 He

00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:19.720
 promised

00:14:19.720 --> 00:14:20.060
 that

00:14:20.060 --> 00:14:20.700
 when you

00:14:20.700 --> 00:14:21.100
 see

00:14:21.100 --> 00:14:21.500
 and

00:14:21.500 --> 00:14:21.940
 behold

00:14:21.940 --> 00:14:22.399
 him

00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:23.040
 your

00:14:23.040 --> 00:14:23.560
 life

00:14:23.560 --> 00:14:23.920
 will

00:14:23.920 --> 00:14:24.379
 change

00:14:24.379 --> 00:14:25.100
 and

00:14:25.100 --> 00:14:25.200
 you

00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:25.340
 will

00:14:25.340 --> 00:14:25.500
 see

00:14:25.500 --> 00:14:25.879
 greater

00:14:25.879 --> 00:14:26.420
 things.

00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:27.379
 He

00:14:27.379 --> 00:14:27.540
 can

00:14:27.540 --> 00:14:27.759
 do

00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:27.920
 it

00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:28.180
 because

00:14:28.180 --> 00:14:28.420
 he

00:14:28.420 --> 00:14:28.580
 is

00:14:28.580 --> 00:14:29.100
 also

00:14:29.100 --> 00:14:29.680
 all

00:14:29.680 --> 00:14:30.240
 powerful

00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:31.060
 as

00:14:31.060 --> 00:14:31.220
 we

00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:31.460
 see

00:14:31.460 --> 00:14:31.700
 from

00:14:31.700 --> 00:14:31.960
 chapter

00:14:33.259 --> 00:14:33.360
 to

00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:33.779
 12.

00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:36.259
 There's

00:14:36.259 --> 00:14:36.440
 a

00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:36.800
 wedding

00:14:36.800 --> 00:14:37.480
 at

00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:37.920
 Canaan

00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:38.599
 in

00:14:38.599 --> 00:14:39.059
 Galilee.

00:14:39.740 --> 00:14:39.959
 Jesus

00:14:39.959 --> 00:14:40.299
 mother

00:14:40.299 --> 00:14:40.559
 was

00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:40.860
 there

00:14:40.860 --> 00:14:41.379
 and

00:14:41.379 --> 00:14:41.639
 so

00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:41.839
 were

00:14:41.839 --> 00:14:42.120
 Jesus

00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:42.620
 and

00:14:42.620 --> 00:14:42.799
 his

00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:43.319
 disciples.

00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:45.419
 It is

00:14:45.419 --> 00:14:45.819
 here

00:14:45.819 --> 00:14:46.439
 that

00:14:46.439 --> 00:14:46.719
 Jesus

00:14:46.719 --> 00:14:47.019
 had

00:14:47.019 --> 00:14:47.579
 another

00:14:47.579 --> 00:14:48.419
 abrupt

00:14:48.419 --> 00:14:49.419
 interaction

00:14:49.419 --> 00:14:49.679
 with

00:14:49.679 --> 00:14:50.039
 someone,

00:14:50.579 --> 00:14:50.860
 his

00:14:50.860 --> 00:14:51.279
 mother.

00:14:52.059 --> 00:14:52.379
 Let's

00:14:52.379 --> 00:14:52.539
 see

00:14:52.539 --> 00:14:52.699
 in

00:14:52.699 --> 00:14:52.879
 verse

00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:53.179
 3.

00:14:54.299 --> 00:14:54.479
 When

00:14:54.479 --> 00:14:54.639
 the

00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:54.879
 wine

00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:55.159
 was

00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:55.620
 gone,

00:14:56.099 --> 00:14:56.299
 Jesus

00:14:56.299 --> 00:14:56.679
 mother

00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:56.959
 said

00:14:56.959 --> 00:14:57.139
 to

00:14:57.139 --> 00:14:57.360
 him,

00:14:57.779 --> 00:14:57.879
 they

00:14:57.879 --> 00:14:58.019
 have

00:14:58.019 --> 00:14:58.179
 no

00:14:58.179 --> 00:14:58.339
 more

00:14:58.339 --> 00:14:58.679
 wine.

00:14:59.519 --> 00:14:59.839
 Woman,

00:15:00.299 --> 00:15:00.559
 why

00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:00.759
 do

00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:00.919
 you

00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:01.219
 involve

00:15:01.219 --> 00:15:01.539
 me?

00:15:02.079 --> 00:15:02.319
 Jesus

00:15:02.319 --> 00:15:02.860
 replied,

00:15:03.459 --> 00:15:03.639
 my

00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:04.019
 hour

00:15:04.019 --> 00:15:04.299
 has

00:15:04.299 --> 00:15:04.539
 not

00:15:04.539 --> 00:15:04.740
 yet

00:15:04.740 --> 00:15:05.099
 come.

00:15:06.719 --> 00:15:07.279
 Again,

00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:07.799
 I

00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:08.159
 find

00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:08.379
 it

00:15:08.379 --> 00:15:08.939
 difficult

00:15:08.939 --> 00:15:09.480
 to

00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:09.759
 put

00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:10.000
 the

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:11.360
 phrase

00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:11.799
 woman,

00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:12.319
 why

00:15:12.319 --> 00:15:12.500
 do

00:15:12.500 --> 00:15:12.639
 you

00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:12.959
 involve

00:15:12.959 --> 00:15:13.279
 me?

00:15:13.579 --> 00:15:13.779
 In

00:15:13.779 --> 00:15:13.980
 a

00:15:13.980 --> 00:15:14.360
 pleasing

00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:15.059
 and

00:15:15.059 --> 00:15:16.039
 non-confrontational

00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:16.439
 way.

00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:17.939
 But

00:15:17.939 --> 00:15:18.159
 why

00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:18.379
 does

00:15:18.379 --> 00:15:18.740
 Jesus

00:15:18.740 --> 00:15:19.179
 have

00:15:19.179 --> 00:15:19.360
 to

00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:19.699
 speak

00:15:19.699 --> 00:15:20.339
 nicely

00:15:20.339 --> 00:15:21.039
 and

00:15:21.039 --> 00:15:22.679
 offensively

00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:22.860
 to

00:15:22.860 --> 00:15:23.259
 people

00:15:23.259 --> 00:15:23.519
 or

00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:23.720
 his

00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:23.959
 mom

00:15:23.959 --> 00:15:24.139
 all

00:15:24.139 --> 00:15:24.240
 the

00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:24.519
 time?

00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:26.919
 The

00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:27.759
 problem

00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:28.319
 of my

00:15:28.319 --> 00:15:28.860
 discomfort

00:15:28.860 --> 00:15:29.679
 is

00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:30.139
 obvious

00:15:30.139 --> 00:15:30.579
 to do

00:15:30.579 --> 00:15:30.779
 with

00:15:30.779 --> 00:15:31.100
 me.

00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:32.819
 I'm

00:15:32.819 --> 00:15:33.459
 concerned

00:15:33.459 --> 00:15:34.000
 about

00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:34.459
 the

00:15:34.459 --> 00:15:34.720
 tone

00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:34.879
 of

00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:35.079
 Jesus'

00:15:35.079 --> 00:15:35.759
 interaction

00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:36.819
 earlier

00:15:36.819 --> 00:15:37.139
 and

00:15:37.139 --> 00:15:37.500
 here.

00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:38.819
 It

00:15:38.819 --> 00:15:38.960
 has

00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:39.259
 a lot

00:15:39.259 --> 00:15:39.439
 to

00:15:39.439 --> 00:15:39.759
 do

00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:40.240
 with

00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:40.480
 how

00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:40.659
 I

00:15:40.659 --> 00:15:40.879
 want

00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:41.039
 to

00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:41.379
 present

00:15:41.379 --> 00:15:41.679
 Jesus

00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:41.960
 as

00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:42.139
 a

00:15:42.139 --> 00:15:42.460
 friendly

00:15:42.460 --> 00:15:43.100
 person

00:15:43.100 --> 00:15:45.120
 or

00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:45.980
 for

00:15:45.980 --> 00:15:46.399
 others

00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:46.819
 to

00:15:46.819 --> 00:15:47.120
 think

00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:47.399
 that

00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:47.860
 I

00:15:47.860 --> 00:15:48.059
 am

00:15:48.059 --> 00:15:48.200
 a

00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:48.379
 nice

00:15:48.379 --> 00:15:48.799
 person.

00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:50.139
 But

00:15:50.139 --> 00:15:50.500
 apart

00:15:50.500 --> 00:15:50.720
 from

00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:51.080
 being

00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:51.500
 our

00:15:52.299 --> 00:15:52.519
 there's

00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:52.799
 more

00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:53.019

00:15:53.019 --> 00:15:53.419
 Jesus

00:15:53.419 --> 00:15:55.480
 and

00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:55.659
 it's

00:15:55.659 --> 00:15:55.919
 nothing

00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:56.179
 to

00:15:56.179 --> 00:15:56.519
 do

00:15:56.519 --> 00:15:57.240
 with

00:15:57.240 --> 00:15:57.639
 what

00:15:57.639 --> 00:15:57.819
 people

00:15:57.819 --> 00:15:58.179

00:15:58.179 --> 00:15:58.379
 of

 me.

00:16:00.500 --> 00:16:01.080
 Here's

00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:01.200

00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:02.179
 myself

00:16:02.179 --> 00:16:02.539
 and

00:16:02.539 --> 00:16:02.700
 maybe

00:16:02.700 --> 00:16:02.879

00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:03.100
 some

00:16:03.100 --> 00:16:03.259

00:16:03.259 --> 00:16:03.500
 you

00:16:03.500 --> 00:16:03.879
 too.

00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:04.960
 Before

 Jesus

00:16:06.340 --> 00:16:06.600
 as

00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:06.919
 our

00:16:08.539 --> 00:16:08.740

00:16:08.740 --> 00:16:09.120
 Jesus

00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:09.539
 as

00:16:09.539 --> 00:16:09.679
 the

00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:09.860
 Son

00:16:09.860 --> 00:16:10.039
 of

00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:10.299
 God,

00:16:10.700 --> 00:16:10.960
 the

00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:11.320
 King,

00:16:11.899 --> 00:16:12.139
 the

00:16:12.139 --> 00:16:12.539
 Lamb of

00:16:12.539 --> 00:16:12.759
 God

00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:12.899
 who

00:16:12.899 --> 00:16:13.139
 takes

00:16:13.139 --> 00:16:13.419
 away

00:16:13.419 --> 00:16:13.620
 the

00:16:13.840 --> 00:16:14.000
 of

00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:14.139
 the

00:16:14.139 --> 00:16:14.399
 world.

00:16:15.059 --> 00:16:15.279
 We

00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:15.539
 need

00:16:17.059 --> 00:16:17.299
 he

00:16:17.299 --> 00:16:17.700
 is,

00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:18.259
 not

00:16:18.259 --> 00:16:18.480
 as

00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:18.779
 what

00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:22.100
 The

00:16:22.100 --> 00:16:22.500

00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:26.860
 Bible

00:16:26.860 --> 00:16:27.360
 about

00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:27.600
 his

00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:27.940
 death

00:16:27.940 --> 00:16:28.259
 on

00:16:28.259 --> 00:16:28.419
 the

00:16:28.419 --> 00:16:28.779
 cross,

00:16:29.179 --> 00:16:29.379
 his

00:16:29.379 --> 00:16:29.940

00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:41.440
 It's

00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:41.600

00:17:46.060 --> 00:17:46.280
 try

00:17:46.280 --> 00:17:46.460
 to

00:17:46.460 --> 00:17:46.700
 build

00:17:46.700 --> 00:17:46.900
 a

00:17:46.900 --> 00:17:47.160
 great

00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:47.740
 life

00:17:47.740 --> 00:17:48.840
 something

00:17:48.840 --> 00:17:49.320
 comes

00:17:49.320 --> 00:17:49.680
 in

00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:51.120
 and

00:17:51.120 --> 00:17:51.480
 ruin

00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:51.820
 our

00:17:51.820 --> 00:17:52.380
 effort

00:17:52.380 --> 00:17:53.080
 our

00:17:53.080 --> 00:17:53.520
 efforts

00:17:53.520 --> 00:17:53.720
 are

00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:53.960
 never

00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:54.540
 enough.

00:17:55.500 --> 00:17:55.720
 In

00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:55.940
 Jesus'

00:17:56.120 --> 00:17:56.400
 time

00:17:56.400 --> 00:17:56.960
 the

00:17:56.960 --> 00:17:57.200
 wine

00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:57.500
 running

00:17:57.500 --> 00:17:57.780
 out

00:17:57.780 --> 00:17:58.120
 means

00:17:58.120 --> 00:17:58.500
 the

00:17:58.500 --> 00:17:58.960
 bridegroom

00:17:58.960 --> 00:17:59.180
 had

00:17:59.180 --> 00:17:59.360
 done

00:17:59.360 --> 00:17:59.620
 a

00:17:59.620 --> 00:18:00.080
 terrible

00:18:00.080 --> 00:18:00.600
 job

00:18:00.600 --> 00:18:00.840
 of

00:18:00.840 --> 00:18:01.360
 preparation.

00:18:02.660 --> 00:18:02.940
 It's

00:18:02.940 --> 00:18:03.100
 a

00:18:03.100 --> 00:18:03.700
 disastrous

00:18:03.700 --> 00:18:04.500
 situation

00:18:04.500 --> 00:18:05.140
 that

00:18:05.140 --> 00:18:05.300
 would

00:18:05.300 --> 00:18:05.460
 be

00:18:05.460 --> 00:18:05.660
 a

00:18:05.660 --> 00:18:05.980
 very

00:18:05.980 --> 00:18:06.520
 shameful

00:18:06.520 --> 00:18:07.200
 embarrassment.

00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:08.020
 It

00:18:08.020 --> 00:18:08.160
 would

00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:08.320
 be

00:18:08.320 --> 00:18:08.520
 the

00:18:08.520 --> 00:18:08.820
 talk

00:18:08.820 --> 00:18:08.980
 of

00:18:08.980 --> 00:18:09.120
 the

00:18:09.120 --> 00:18:09.500
 time

00:18:09.500 --> 00:18:10.180
 forever.

00:18:11.500 --> 00:18:11.740
 By

00:18:11.740 --> 00:18:12.040
 making

00:18:12.040 --> 00:18:12.360
 new

00:18:12.360 --> 00:18:12.660
 wine

00:18:12.660 --> 00:18:12.840
 for

00:18:12.840 --> 00:18:13.000
 the

00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:13.360
 wedding

00:18:13.360 --> 00:18:13.660
 at

00:18:13.660 --> 00:18:13.860
 King

00:18:13.860 --> 00:18:14.940
 Jesus

00:18:14.940 --> 00:18:15.400
 showed

00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:15.720
 he

00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:15.860
 has

00:18:15.860 --> 00:18:16.360
 power

00:18:16.360 --> 00:18:16.920
 over

00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:17.400
 the

00:18:17.400 --> 00:18:17.940
 created

00:18:17.940 --> 00:18:18.380
 order

00:18:18.380 --> 00:18:19.180
 because

00:18:19.180 --> 00:18:19.840
 he

00:18:19.840 --> 00:18:20.040
 is

00:18:20.040 --> 00:18:20.200
 the

00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:20.620
 creator

00:18:20.620 --> 00:18:21.060
 who

00:18:21.060 --> 00:18:21.340
 comes

00:18:21.340 --> 00:18:21.540
 to

00:18:21.540 --> 00:18:21.820
 earth.

00:18:22.380 --> 00:18:23.060
 He

00:18:23.060 --> 00:18:23.200
 is

00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:23.480
 all

00:18:23.480 --> 00:18:24.080
 powerful

00:18:24.080 --> 00:18:25.680
 omnipotent

00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:26.200
 and

00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:26.400
 can

00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:26.620
 make

00:18:26.620 --> 00:18:27.040
 everything

00:18:27.040 --> 00:18:27.480
 new.

00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:28.760
 Jesus

00:18:28.760 --> 00:18:29.080
 did

00:18:29.080 --> 00:18:29.460
 much

00:18:29.460 --> 00:18:29.960
 more

00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:30.520
 than

00:18:30.520 --> 00:18:31.100
 simply

00:18:31.100 --> 00:18:32.000
 feel

00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:32.520
 a need

00:18:32.520 --> 00:18:33.120
 or a

00:18:33.120 --> 00:18:33.360
 first

00:18:33.360 --> 00:18:33.600
 some

00:18:33.600 --> 00:18:33.900
 kind

00:18:33.900 --> 00:18:34.060
 of

00:18:34.060 --> 00:18:34.400
 social

00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:35.020
 disaster.

00:18:35.420 --> 00:18:36.020
 He

00:18:36.020 --> 00:18:36.600
 turns

00:18:36.600 --> 00:18:37.260
 embarrassment

00:18:37.260 --> 00:18:38.240
 into a

00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:38.660
 blessing.

00:18:38.660 --> 00:18:41.960
 what

00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:42.120
 the

00:18:42.120 --> 00:18:42.480
 master

00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:42.640
 of

00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:43.019
 banquet

00:18:43.019 --> 00:18:43.300
 said

00:18:43.300 --> 00:18:43.460
 to

00:18:43.460 --> 00:18:43.660
 the

00:18:43.660 --> 00:18:44.200
 bridegroom

00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:44.580
 in

00:18:44.580 --> 00:18:44.840
 verse

00:18:44.840 --> 00:18:45.200
 10

00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:45.460
 is

00:18:45.460 --> 00:18:45.640
 a

00:18:45.640 --> 00:18:46.220
 climax

00:18:46.220 --> 00:18:46.660
 of

00:18:46.660 --> 00:18:46.860
 this

00:18:46.860 --> 00:18:47.279
 story.

00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:48.500
 Everyone

00:18:48.500 --> 00:18:48.940
 brings

00:18:48.940 --> 00:18:49.180
 out

00:18:49.180 --> 00:18:49.680
 choice

00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:50.220
 wine

00:18:50.220 --> 00:18:50.860
 first

00:18:50.860 --> 00:18:51.340
 and

00:18:51.340 --> 00:18:51.480
 then

00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:51.640
 the

00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:51.900
 cheaper

00:18:51.900 --> 00:18:52.259
 wine

00:18:52.259 --> 00:18:52.580
 after

00:18:52.580 --> 00:18:52.800
 the

00:18:52.800 --> 00:18:53.040
 guests

00:18:53.040 --> 00:18:53.259
 had

00:18:53.259 --> 00:18:53.860
 too

00:18:53.860 --> 00:18:54.220
 much

00:18:54.220 --> 00:18:54.420
 to

00:18:54.420 --> 00:18:54.800
 drink.

00:18:54.800 --> 00:18:55.480
 But

00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:55.680
 you

00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:55.840
 have

00:18:55.840 --> 00:18:56.220
 saved

00:18:56.220 --> 00:18:56.420
 the

00:18:56.420 --> 00:18:56.700
 best

00:18:56.700 --> 00:18:56.940
 till

00:18:56.940 --> 00:18:57.340
 last,

00:18:57.800 --> 00:18:58.040
 till

00:18:58.040 --> 00:18:58.360
 now.

00:19:00.600 --> 00:19:01.180
 Instead

00:19:01.180 --> 00:19:01.759
 of having

00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:02.300
 to

00:19:02.300 --> 00:19:02.680
 endure

00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:03.240
 shame,

00:19:04.120 --> 00:19:04.279
 the

00:19:04.279 --> 00:19:04.779
 bridegroom

00:19:04.779 --> 00:19:05.240
 was

00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:05.759
 publicly

00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:06.400
 honored

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:06.940
 for

00:19:06.940 --> 00:19:07.140
 his

00:19:07.140 --> 00:19:07.840
 over-the-top

00:19:07.840 --> 00:19:08.560
 hospitality

00:19:08.560 --> 00:19:09.440
 for

00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:09.780
 saving

00:19:09.780 --> 00:19:10.000
 the

00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:10.200
 good

00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:10.460
 wine

00:19:10.460 --> 00:19:10.660
 for

00:19:10.660 --> 00:19:11.060
 last.

00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:12.700
 Jesus

00:19:12.700 --> 00:19:13.519
 came

00:19:13.519 --> 00:19:13.940
 to

00:19:13.940 --> 00:19:14.280
 bring

00:19:14.280 --> 00:19:14.780
 blessing

00:19:14.780 --> 00:19:15.080
 to

00:19:15.080 --> 00:19:15.380
 us,

00:19:15.860 --> 00:19:16.220
 not

00:19:16.220 --> 00:19:16.780
 judgment.

00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:17.940
 He

00:19:17.940 --> 00:19:18.380
 used

00:19:18.380 --> 00:19:18.940
 stone

00:19:18.940 --> 00:19:19.259
 water

00:19:19.259 --> 00:19:19.860
 jar

00:19:19.860 --> 00:19:20.620
 that

00:19:20.620 --> 00:19:20.820
 was

00:19:20.820 --> 00:19:21.120
 set

00:19:21.120 --> 00:19:21.460
 aside

00:19:21.460 --> 00:19:21.680
 for

00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:22.400
 ceremonial

00:19:22.400 --> 00:19:22.900
 washing

00:19:22.900 --> 00:19:23.600
 to

00:19:23.600 --> 00:19:23.960
 change

00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:24.400
 water

00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:24.780
 into

00:19:24.780 --> 00:19:25.240
 wine.

00:19:26.540 --> 00:19:26.740
 It

00:19:26.740 --> 00:19:26.880
 is

00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:27.200
 through

00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:27.480
 his

00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:27.960
 death

00:19:27.960 --> 00:19:28.500
 on

00:19:28.500 --> 00:19:28.680
 the

00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:29.080
 cross

00:19:29.080 --> 00:19:29.940
 by

00:19:29.940 --> 00:19:30.220
 his

00:19:30.220 --> 00:19:30.660
 blood

00:19:30.660 --> 00:19:31.320
 that

00:19:31.320 --> 00:19:31.480
 he

00:19:31.480 --> 00:19:31.960
 cleansed

00:19:31.960 --> 00:19:32.200
 us

00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:32.500
 and

00:19:32.500 --> 00:19:32.920
 forgives

00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:33.200
 us

00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:33.640
 of

00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:33.880
 our

00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:34.240
 sins.

00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:37.620
 He

00:19:37.620 --> 00:19:38.040
 holds

00:19:38.040 --> 00:19:38.240
 the

00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:38.660
 power

00:19:38.660 --> 00:19:39.240
 to

00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:39.600
 change

00:19:39.600 --> 00:19:40.160
 whatever

00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:40.900
 embarrassment

00:19:40.900 --> 00:19:41.320
 in your

00:19:41.320 --> 00:19:41.700
 life

00:19:41.700 --> 00:19:42.460
 that

00:19:42.460 --> 00:19:42.620
 are

00:19:42.620 --> 00:19:42.820
 so

00:19:42.820 --> 00:19:43.380
 shameful

00:19:43.380 --> 00:19:43.960
 that

00:19:43.960 --> 00:19:44.140
 you

00:19:44.140 --> 00:19:44.340
 would

00:19:44.340 --> 00:19:44.740
 want

00:19:44.740 --> 00:19:44.900
 to

00:19:44.900 --> 00:19:45.100
 keep

00:19:45.100 --> 00:19:45.580
 hiding

00:19:45.580 --> 00:19:46.780
 into

00:19:46.780 --> 00:19:47.400
 something

00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:47.780
 for

00:19:47.780 --> 00:19:48.060
 his

00:19:48.060 --> 00:19:48.500
 glory.

00:19:50.140 --> 00:19:50.740
 But

00:19:50.740 --> 00:19:51.019
 before

00:19:51.019 --> 00:19:51.380
 Jesus

00:19:51.380 --> 00:19:51.640
 can

00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:52.080
 give us

00:19:52.080 --> 00:19:52.440
 a cup

00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:52.620
 of

00:19:52.620 --> 00:19:53.040
 blessing,

00:19:53.860 --> 00:19:54.080
 he

00:19:54.080 --> 00:19:54.200
 will

00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:54.420
 have

00:19:54.420 --> 00:19:54.600
 to

00:19:54.600 --> 00:19:54.880
 take

00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:55.240
 the

00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:55.480
 cup

00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:55.680
 of

00:19:55.680 --> 00:19:56.120
 divine

00:19:56.120 --> 00:19:56.580
 wolf.

00:19:57.680 --> 00:19:58.060
 And

00:19:58.060 --> 00:19:58.220
 he

00:19:58.220 --> 00:19:58.420
 did

00:19:58.420 --> 00:19:58.680
 it

00:19:58.680 --> 00:19:59.200
 willingly

00:19:59.200 --> 00:19:59.700
 for

00:19:59.700 --> 00:19:59.980
 you.

00:20:00.460 --> 00:20:00.700
 And

00:20:00.700 --> 00:20:00.820
 you

00:20:00.820 --> 00:20:01.000
 don't

00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:01.160
 have

00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:01.300
 to

00:20:01.300 --> 00:20:01.620
 hide

00:20:01.620 --> 00:20:02.360
 anything

00:20:02.360 --> 00:20:03.019
 anymore.

00:20:03.019 --> 00:20:05.740
 changing

00:20:05.740 --> 00:20:06.200
 water

00:20:06.200 --> 00:20:06.500

00:20:06.500 --> 00:20:06.940
 wine

00:20:06.940 --> 00:20:07.460

00:20:07.460 --> 00:20:07.639
 the

00:20:07.639 --> 00:20:07.859
 first

00:20:07.859 --> 00:20:08.019
 of

00:20:08.019 --> 00:20:08.259
 many

00:20:08.259 --> 00:20:08.900

00:20:08.900 --> 00:20:09.240
 in

00:20:09.660 --> 00:20:10.059

00:20:10.059 --> 00:20:10.859
 where

00:20:10.859 --> 00:20:11.400
 Jesus

00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:12.480
 restores

00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:13.160
 something

00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:13.720
 to

00:20:13.720 --> 00:20:14.059
 better

00:20:14.059 --> 00:20:14.319
 than

00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:14.759
 original

00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:15.420
 condition.

00:20:16.420 --> 00:20:16.639
 It

00:20:16.639 --> 00:20:17.119
 reveals

00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:17.519
 Jesus'

00:20:17.519 --> 00:20:18.279
 deep

00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:18.980
 concern

00:20:18.980 --> 00:20:19.519
 for

00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:19.799

00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:21.980

 no

00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:23.240
 matter

00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:23.740

00:20:23.740 --> 00:20:24.519

 by

00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:24.440
 believing

00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:25.539
 we

00:21:27.740 --> 00:21:28.000
 and

00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:28.119
 it

00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:28.240
 will

00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:28.539
 not

00:21:28.539 --> 00:21:28.920
 be

00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:29.660
 any

00:21:29.660 --> 00:21:30.099
 ordinary

00:21:30.099 --> 00:21:30.680
 life,

00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:31.119
 but

00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:31.599
 life

00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:32.019
 that

00:21:32.019 --> 00:21:32.160
 is

00:21:32.160 --> 00:21:32.420
 filled

00:21:32.420 --> 00:21:32.599
 to

00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:32.759

 broom

00:21:33.099 --> 00:21:33.859
 and

00:21:33.859 --> 00:21:34.599
 abundant

00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:35.119
 life.

00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:36.980
 Believing

00:21:36.980 --> 00:21:37.700
 and trusting

00:21:37.700 --> 00:21:38.379
 is

00:21:38.379 --> 00:21:39.000
 relational.

00:21:39.000 --> 00:21:41.440
 I can

00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:41.920
 imitate

00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:42.819
 and do

00:21:42.819 --> 00:21:43.220
 exactly

00:21:43.220 --> 00:21:43.460
 what

 another

00:21:43.799 --> 00:21:44.180
 person

00:21:44.180 --> 00:21:44.599
 does,

00:21:44.980 --> 00:21:45.420
 but

00:21:45.420 --> 00:21:45.779
 that

00:21:45.779 --> 00:21:45.960
 will

00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:46.180
 not

00:21:46.180 --> 00:21:46.619

00:22:48.299 --> 00:22:48.620
 Jesus

00:22:48.620 --> 00:22:49.180
 to treat

00:22:49.180 --> 00:22:49.500

00:22:49.500 --> 00:22:50.340
 as a

00:22:50.340 --> 00:22:50.960
 primary

00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:51.700
 example

00:22:51.700 --> 00:22:52.019
 to

00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:55.519
 That is

00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:56.019
 not

00:22:56.019 --> 00:22:56.819
 the key

00:22:56.819 --> 00:22:57.140
 to

00:22:57.140 --> 00:22:57.539
 abundant

00:22:57.539 --> 00:22:57.980
 life.

00:22:59.240 --> 00:22:59.379
 The

00:22:59.379 --> 00:22:59.740
 key

00:22:59.740 --> 00:23:00.500
 is to

00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:00.920
 believe

00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:01.159
 in

00:23:01.159 --> 00:23:01.559
 Jesus

00:23:01.559 --> 00:23:02.379
 after

00:23:02.379 --> 00:23:02.839
 seeing

00:23:02.839 --> 00:23:03.319
 his

00:23:03.319 --> 00:23:03.799
 glory.
