00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.940
 Good morning, Watermark. Please remain standing. We want to now confess our faith.

00:00:05.419 --> 00:00:08.040
 We actually want to read together the Nicene Creed.

00:00:08.419 --> 00:00:14.300
 We talk a lot about the faith of our church and our journey that we are on here at Watermark.

00:00:15.140 --> 00:00:24.440
 And when we read the Nicene Creed, we are connected with the journey of all the churches around, not just Hong Kong, but even around the world.

00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:29.019
 And it also connects us with the journey of the church over the past 2,000 years.

00:00:29.019 --> 00:00:39.439
 And so just as you read along, maybe you just take the words in and think about where are you on your journey and just seeing these words being true in your life.

00:00:39.820 --> 00:00:42.719
 So the words will be on the screen and please read with me.

00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:54.320
 We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen.

00:00:54.320 --> 00:01:08.980
 We believe Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, light from light, true God from true God, begotten, not made.

00:01:09.540 --> 00:01:14.939
 Of one being with the Father, through him all things were made for us and for our salvation.

00:01:15.460 --> 00:01:16.640
 He came down from heaven.

00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:22.140
 By the power of the Holy Spirit, he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary and was made man.

00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.219
 For our sake, he was crucified on the Pontius Pilate.

00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:28.680
 He suffered death and was buried.

00:01:29.099 --> 00:01:31.879
 On the third day, he rose again in accordance with the scriptures.

00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:36.140
 He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:40.359
 He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead.

00:01:40.819 --> 00:01:42.920
 And his kingdom will have no end.

00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:50.180
 We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son.

00:01:51.060 --> 00:01:54.219
 With the Father and the Son, he is worshipped and glorified.

00:01:54.740 --> 00:01:56.379
 He has spoken through the prophets.

00:01:57.140 --> 00:02:01.140
 We believe in one holy, universal, and apostolic church.

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:04.980
 We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

00:02:05.240 --> 00:02:10.139
 We look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.

00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:10.900
 Amen.

00:02:10.900 --> 00:02:16.640
 The scripture today comes from the books of Isaiah and Ezekiel and the Gospel of Luke.

00:02:17.260 --> 00:02:19.000
 Please follow along in your bulletin.

00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:23.700
 All of us, like sheep, have gone astray.

00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:26.480
 Each of us has turned to his own way.

00:02:27.140 --> 00:02:30.520
 But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all to fall on him.

00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:32.360
 For thus says the Lord God,

00:02:32.860 --> 00:02:36.939
 Behold, I myself will search for my sheep and seek them out.

00:02:36.939 --> 00:02:41.639
 As a shepherd cares for his herd in the day when he is among his scattered sheep.

00:02:42.139 --> 00:02:49.500
 So I will care for my sheep and will deliver them from all the places to which they were scattered on a cloudy and gloomy day.

00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:52.340
 Like a shepherd, he will tend his flock.

00:02:52.939 --> 00:02:56.539
 In his arm, he will gather the lambs and carry them in his bosom.

00:02:57.180 --> 00:02:59.139
 He will gently lead the nursing ills.

00:02:59.139 --> 00:03:04.179
 Now all the tax collectors and the sinners were coming near him to listen to him.

00:03:04.739 --> 00:03:07.919
 Both the Pharisees and the scribes began to grumble, saying,

00:03:08.559 --> 00:03:10.739
 This man receives sinners and eats with them.

00:03:11.239 --> 00:03:13.759
 So he told them this parable, saying,

00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:19.099
 What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and he has lost one of them,

00:03:19.799 --> 00:03:26.199
 does not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?

00:03:26.819 --> 00:03:30.699
 When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

00:03:31.299 --> 00:03:36.379
 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them,

00:03:37.099 --> 00:03:40.379
 Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.

00:03:40.379 --> 00:03:46.479
 I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who will repent

00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:51.259
 than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

00:03:52.060 --> 00:03:56.240
 Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins and loses one coin,

00:03:56.620 --> 00:04:01.199
 does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?

00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:05.740
 When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying,

00:04:06.180 --> 00:04:09.300
 Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.

00:04:09.300 --> 00:04:16.360
 In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.

00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:18.600
 This is the reading of God's word.

00:04:19.060 --> 00:04:19.720
 Please be seated.

00:04:20.280 --> 00:04:21.259
 How you guys doing?

00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:23.699
 Oh, that's terrible.

00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:25.740
 That wasn't good. That was terrible.

00:04:27.379 --> 00:04:28.199
 How you guys doing?

00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:29.639
 Okay.

00:04:30.100 --> 00:04:35.160
 Hey, if you are here for the first time or the third or fourth time, my name is Tobin.

00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:39.560
 I'm one of the pastors here at Watermark Community Church.

00:04:39.740 --> 00:04:45.740
 We have been on a journey following the clouds for places to meet as a congregation,

00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.860
 as we got kicked out of Cyberport for the last couple weeks.

00:04:49.060 --> 00:04:54.200
 And so the cloud has landed on ISF here, and it is an amazing facility.

00:04:54.800 --> 00:05:01.060
 So you want to, if you get a chance, thank the teachers and principals for allowing us to use this time here.

00:05:01.060 --> 00:05:02.500
 It's a great time here.

00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:05.780
 We are continuing in our journey of Luke.

00:05:06.379 --> 00:05:09.040
 We've been going through Luke for like two years.

00:05:09.180 --> 00:05:15.139
 We'll probably go for Luke for another two years, which you laugh, but it's true.

00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:20.300
 And we are talking about lost and found things today.

00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:25.639
 So actually, for the next four weeks, we're going to talk about lost and found things.

00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:30.139
 And I'm going to do something that a man should never do.

00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:34.959
 There's a cardinal rule among husbands to never disclose secrets of husbands.

00:05:35.699 --> 00:05:40.560
 But I know the husbands are getting nervous right now.

00:05:41.159 --> 00:05:47.800
 But ladies, I need to tell you, as we talk about lost and found, whether you know it or not,

00:05:48.039 --> 00:05:51.899
 your husbands are terrible primary caregivers.

00:05:51.899 --> 00:06:01.459
 And your husband has probably lost your children and never told you this because he does not want you to freak out

00:06:01.459 --> 00:06:07.139
 and never allow you to be or never allow you to have him have your kids with him again.

00:06:07.579 --> 00:06:08.799
 But that is true.

00:06:08.899 --> 00:06:09.799
 It's a statement of fact.

00:06:10.239 --> 00:06:11.159
 Husbands all know it.

00:06:11.219 --> 00:06:15.019
 We hide it because we don't want our wives to think any less of us.

00:06:15.019 --> 00:06:19.419
 The first time I lost my kid, we were in Bangkok.

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:23.139
 And Christina, we had Rachel only one child now.

00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:26.259
 We have four, which makes it easier to lose when you have four.

00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:28.879
 And Rachel was under one years old.

00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:30.959
 She was in a stroller, right?

00:06:31.379 --> 00:06:32.699
 And we went into this.

00:06:33.779 --> 00:06:38.839
 So this is like I'm getting rid of my therapy because I'm sharing it right now for my wife who's never heard this story.

00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:45.459
 So you're experiencing marital reconciliation too right here, which is really good, right?

00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:47.799
 And conflict resolution and communication.

00:06:48.060 --> 00:06:48.699
 And I love you, honey.

00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:53.959
 Anyway, so we had Rachel in her stroller.

00:06:54.099 --> 00:06:56.359
 It was a blue McLaren stroller.

00:06:56.919 --> 00:06:58.339
 And she was under one year old.

00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:01.459
 And Christina wanted to go look at shoes, as all good wives do.

00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:03.699
 They look at shoes whenever they go into department stores.

00:07:03.699 --> 00:07:05.659
 And she kept Rachel with me.

00:07:05.699 --> 00:07:07.319
 And she said, can you watch Rachel?

00:07:07.939 --> 00:07:09.240
 And I said, well, how hard can that be?

00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:10.199
 Yes, she's a baby.

00:07:10.300 --> 00:07:11.479
 She's strapped into a chair.

00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:12.899
 No problem.

00:07:12.939 --> 00:07:13.579
 I got this down.

00:07:13.699 --> 00:07:14.659
 It's going to work perfectly.

00:07:15.180 --> 00:07:21.699
 And so I did the thing that I normally do when I go to stores is I go to a book section or the newspaper section or the magazine section.

00:07:22.259 --> 00:07:24.779
 And so I pulled up to the magazine section.

00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:27.039
 And I had the magazines in front of me.

00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:29.039
 And I basically grabbed a couple magazines.

00:07:29.180 --> 00:07:30.680
 And I put Rachel right here.

00:07:30.699 --> 00:07:32.019
 And she's still in her chair, right?

00:07:32.019 --> 00:07:34.919
 So that was my first mistake because I put her on my left side.

00:07:35.019 --> 00:07:38.319
 Now, if you don't know it, I'm deaf on my left side.

00:07:38.620 --> 00:07:40.060
 I lost my hearing in college.

00:07:40.379 --> 00:07:41.879
 We'll talk about that in another time.

00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:43.740
 And so sometimes I read lips.

00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:48.099
 And so if you talk to me on the left and I ignore you and you walk away and go, wow, what a snob.

00:07:48.919 --> 00:07:49.659
 It's not that.

00:07:49.740 --> 00:07:51.120
 It's just I didn't hear you.

00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:53.779
 But I read lips and I look at people.

00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.060
 So even when you're in the audience and you say, well, I can't believe you said that.

00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:58.459
 I understand what you're saying.

00:07:59.180 --> 00:08:00.219
 Just to be aware of that.

00:08:00.220 --> 00:08:03.740
 I'm learning Cantonese lip reading to be better.

00:08:03.860 --> 00:08:05.060
 But I do English pretty well.

00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:09.220
 And so I'm there reading magazines.

00:08:09.400 --> 00:08:10.140
 And I look over the side.

00:08:10.260 --> 00:08:11.080
 And Rachel's there.

00:08:11.520 --> 00:08:12.360
 And I'm reading magazines.

00:08:12.440 --> 00:08:12.860
 I look over the side.

00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:13.460
 Rachel's there.

00:08:14.420 --> 00:08:15.880
 And I don't know how long it is.

00:08:15.960 --> 00:08:17.840
 Surely less than two seconds, right?

00:08:18.400 --> 00:08:19.740
 And I look over to the side.

00:08:19.840 --> 00:08:21.540
 And Rachel is not there.

00:08:22.660 --> 00:08:24.000
 I mean, the stroller's there.

00:08:24.020 --> 00:08:25.260
 But the baby isn't there.

00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:28.800
 And so I look down and I look back.

00:08:29.379 --> 00:08:32.519
 And I'm thinking, did Christina come by and get the kid?

00:08:32.899 --> 00:08:34.700
 What happened to Rachel?

00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:36.200
 Why is she gone?

00:08:36.299 --> 00:08:37.279
 And so you have one of these moments.

00:08:37.379 --> 00:08:39.220
 His dad's like, oh, my wife is going to kill me.

00:08:39.659 --> 00:08:41.240
 And how can I be so irresponsible?

00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:47.179
 I had one goal just to watch this kid for however long to try on 200 pairs of shoes.

00:08:47.179 --> 00:08:51.759
 Anyway, so, which was very quick, I know.

00:08:52.339 --> 00:08:54.839
 And so I panic.

00:08:55.859 --> 00:08:58.019
 And I know I turn white.

00:08:58.099 --> 00:08:59.579
 And I almost want to throw up, right?

00:08:59.599 --> 00:09:01.079
 Because I'm like, okay, we're in Bangkok.

00:09:01.239 --> 00:09:01.839
 I don't know anything.

00:09:02.099 --> 00:09:03.599
 We're in this huge department store.

00:09:03.979 --> 00:09:05.599
 And I can't speak Thai.

00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:06.879
 And so I stand up.

00:09:07.019 --> 00:09:08.259
 And I start looking around.

00:09:08.319 --> 00:09:09.539
 I kind of say, okay, hard search.

00:09:09.659 --> 00:09:11.240
 And don't act like you've lost anything.

00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.879
 Because if Christina sees you looking around like that, she's going to know you've lost something, right?

00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:16.719
 And it's going to be the kid.

00:09:17.180 --> 00:09:20.160
 So as a husband, you learn this way of kind of looking around and just kind of.

00:09:21.700 --> 00:09:23.700
 And all of a sudden, I don't see anything.

00:09:23.820 --> 00:09:25.840
 And I'm really starting to panic.

00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:28.180
 And so I start kind of going around.

00:09:28.300 --> 00:09:31.259
 And in my field of view, I can't see her.

00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:33.680
 I see a lot of short little Thai people walking around.

00:09:34.340 --> 00:09:37.600
 And no big white Caucasian baby anywhere.

00:09:38.300 --> 00:09:40.019
 And all of a sudden, I hear this laughing.

00:09:40.580 --> 00:09:41.680
 I hear this giggling and laughing.

00:09:42.060 --> 00:09:44.019
 And it's coming behind the bookshelves.

00:09:44.019 --> 00:09:46.240
 And so I run back there.

00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.740
 And the Thai worker has this huge white kid in her arms.

00:09:50.740 --> 00:09:51.759
 And she's walking around.

00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:55.559
 And all the other Thai workers are, you know, hanging out with her and laughing and giggling.

00:09:55.779 --> 00:09:57.500
 And, oh, look how big this foreign kid is.

00:09:57.720 --> 00:09:58.519
 How did they get that big?

00:09:58.539 --> 00:09:59.079
 I don't know.

00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:00.340
 Look at the size of that head.

00:10:00.340 --> 00:10:03.879
 And so I'm like, what are you doing?

00:10:04.580 --> 00:10:06.460
 And she goes, she looked lonely.

00:10:07.560 --> 00:10:10.720
 And I wanted to pick her up and just have fun with her.

00:10:11.680 --> 00:10:12.820
 And so I was like, oh, my gosh.

00:10:13.100 --> 00:10:18.879
 I was like, okay, I can never tell Christina this because she will not trust me whatsoever, right?

00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:27.799
 But then after you've had like your second, your third, or your fourth kid, losing kids is just different, right?

00:10:31.379 --> 00:10:32.799
 Because you have more of them, right?

00:10:32.899 --> 00:10:34.679
 So we had this one kid.

00:10:34.820 --> 00:10:35.500
 I don't want to.

00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:38.039
 I have a sheep in my pocket, so I'm going to take them off here.

00:10:39.139 --> 00:10:40.019
 We have this one kid.

00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:44.059
 I don't want to name names, but it's the one kid in our family that has the XY chromosome.

00:10:44.059 --> 00:10:48.439
 And the XY chromosome kid, that's a boy, okay?

00:10:49.859 --> 00:10:52.239
 So he's always getting lost, right?

00:10:52.419 --> 00:10:54.239
 And always just getting lost.

00:10:54.319 --> 00:11:01.599
 And so last week he got lost after church, and we were walking down to the car, and Christina goes, well, where's the XY kid?

00:11:01.659 --> 00:11:04.459
 And I'm like, Kip is lost.

00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:06.279
 And she goes, well, what are we going to do?

00:11:06.319 --> 00:11:08.419
 I'm like, just leave him here.

00:11:08.459 --> 00:11:09.299
 He'll find his way home.

00:11:10.659 --> 00:11:13.859
 I mean, if he got lost, he has to find his way back.

00:11:13.860 --> 00:11:14.680
 He can do that.

00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:16.940
 She goes, you can't be serious.

00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:20.820
 And in my mind, I'm like, okay, three out of four is 75%.

00:11:20.820 --> 00:11:23.300
 75% is pretty good, right?

00:11:23.860 --> 00:11:28.500
 I mean, if you score football three times out of four, you get, you know, touchdown.

00:11:28.740 --> 00:11:29.519
 That's pretty good.

00:11:30.340 --> 00:11:31.159
 But I'm not.

00:11:31.220 --> 00:11:32.500
 I wasn't serious, okay?

00:11:32.740 --> 00:11:34.399
 And so we end up looking for the kids.

00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:39.840
 But sometimes losing things, why did I share that?

00:11:39.860 --> 00:11:40.340
 I don't know.

00:11:40.340 --> 00:11:50.680
 But we're talking about lost and found things, and we're talking about how sometimes things stress us out and bother us.

00:11:51.040 --> 00:11:56.580
 And we're coming to a passage today, I think, that is the heart of the gospel.

00:11:56.580 --> 00:12:02.420
 It's, I think, that it's the center of the Bible.

00:12:02.900 --> 00:12:06.620
 We went through last week chapters 14, which is a really hard chapter.

00:12:06.700 --> 00:12:10.440
 But chapter 15, it's who God is.

00:12:11.620 --> 00:12:13.879
 It's the center of God's love for us.

00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:20.340
 I remember sharing with a Muslim guy in China, one of my students, and we were talking about God.

00:12:20.340 --> 00:12:23.720
 And he said, what's God like to you?

00:12:23.920 --> 00:12:26.240
 And I read the passage today to him.

00:12:27.220 --> 00:12:30.440
 And as I was sharing, he just kind of kept shaking his head.

00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:33.019
 And he says, too good, too good, too good.

00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:35.040
 I go, what do you mean?

00:12:35.100 --> 00:12:38.480
 He goes, that's just too good.

00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:43.660
 I can't believe that God is like that.

00:12:43.659 --> 00:12:52.199
 And so when we come to these passages that tell us what God is like, often, if you're like me, the first question I ask is, am I like that?

00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:55.559
 Because I'm a Christ follower.

00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:57.579
 Am I like what God is like?

00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:01.019
 Because God wants us to reflect him and to be like him, right?

00:13:01.019 --> 00:13:04.120
 And so it's always a good thing to think about.

00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:14.580
 But in Luke 15, verses 1 through 2, we're told that all the tax collectors and the sinners were coming near to Christ to listen to him.

00:13:14.980 --> 00:13:17.179
 Remember what happened in the last verse of 14.

00:13:17.379 --> 00:13:20.779
 It says, he who has ears to hear, let him hear.

00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:27.360
 Which basically means, hey, listen up, because something really important was just said and is about to be said.

00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:32.480
 And all the tax collectors and sinners were coming near to him to listen to him.

00:13:32.539 --> 00:13:37.779
 And both the Pharisees and the scribes began to grumble, saying, this man receives sinners and eats with them.

00:13:38.620 --> 00:13:44.300
 And we see here in this big setting, in this beginning of this story, which we're going to cover for the next four weeks,

00:13:45.259 --> 00:13:47.560
 that it all begins with a party.

00:13:47.700 --> 00:13:48.680
 It begins with a meal.

00:13:49.980 --> 00:13:52.379
 And it's interesting because Jesus said, he who has ears, let him hear.

00:13:52.379 --> 00:13:59.960
 And immediately, the worst people in their culture come and sit down and listen to him.

00:14:00.899 --> 00:14:01.720
 It's not the leaders.

00:14:01.899 --> 00:14:04.100
 It's not the powerful.

00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:04.960
 It's not the rich.

00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:05.720
 It's not the influential.

00:14:06.259 --> 00:14:08.220
 But it's the worst people.

00:14:08.700 --> 00:14:09.919
 And they come and they have a meal.

00:14:10.019 --> 00:14:15.700
 And you have to realize in Hebrew culture that meals are very, very serious things.

00:14:15.980 --> 00:14:17.919
 They're incredibly important.

00:14:18.100 --> 00:14:19.820
 They're symbols of friendship.

00:14:20.059 --> 00:14:21.360
 They're symbols of community.

00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:23.740
 They're symbols of forgiveness.

00:14:26.019 --> 00:14:28.200
 They're symbols of identity.

00:14:29.560 --> 00:14:36.899
 And so Jesus isn't just eating with these sinful people, but he's developing relationships and community with them.

00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:41.659
 And as the Pharisees look at it, they are appalled.

00:14:42.500 --> 00:14:46.180
 And the passage doesn't just say he joined them as he ate,

00:14:46.179 --> 00:14:52.599
 because even a righteous Jewish person would often throw a party and invite a lot of poor people to it,

00:14:52.620 --> 00:14:53.979
 but he would never attend it.

00:14:54.339 --> 00:14:58.279
 He would just let them eat because he didn't want to soil himself with the poor people.

00:14:58.500 --> 00:15:01.139
 But it says that Jesus actually hosted this party.

00:15:01.539 --> 00:15:04.179
 He personally invited all of these people.

00:15:04.339 --> 00:15:07.879
 He didn't just find them, but he brings them in there.

00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:10.899
 And it's a big problem.

00:15:12.259 --> 00:15:15.139
 The leaders look at this and they say, how can this be?

00:15:15.340 --> 00:15:19.519
 When you look at somebody like a tax gatherer, and I know we have a couple tax people in here,

00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:23.779
 but tax gatherers were the worst people in Jewish culture.

00:15:23.779 --> 00:15:26.459
 I mean, they were the scum of society.

00:15:27.000 --> 00:15:31.939
 Cicero, an orator, a Roman guy, basically said that a tax collector was just like a prostitute.

00:15:33.220 --> 00:15:40.199
 That a tax collector was somebody who basically bought a franchise to tax his own people from the Roman government.

00:15:41.019 --> 00:15:43.899
 So today we'd buy like a McDonald's franchise and make a lot of money.

00:15:44.319 --> 00:15:49.459
 In Jesus' day, a guy, a Jewish guy, would buy a tax franchise from the Roman government,

00:15:49.659 --> 00:15:52.839
 and he would make all of his money off of his own people.

00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:55.840
 And often he would make money because he would charge too much,

00:15:56.639 --> 00:15:58.560
 or charge it more often than he should.

00:15:59.580 --> 00:16:03.220
 And we're told in Hebrew culture that tax collectors and tax gatherers,

00:16:03.680 --> 00:16:08.519
 that their reputation, their word in court was not allowable.

00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:14.560
 We're actually even told that if a tax collector came and offered money in the church,

00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:19.200
 the rabbis would come and take it and throw it outside of the church.

00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:24.800
 That he was so dirty and so disdained that they didn't even want his offering.

00:16:25.920 --> 00:16:28.320
 And then the word sinner there is also very interesting.

00:16:28.860 --> 00:16:32.320
 It means in Hebrew and Greek, people of the land.

00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:35.259
 People of the land.

00:16:36.060 --> 00:16:38.200
 It meant people who had given up on God.

00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:41.440
 It meant people that were Jewish and they were walking with him,

00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:44.900
 and all of a sudden they became disinterested in him.

00:16:45.580 --> 00:16:47.600
 And they didn't want to be with him anymore.

00:16:47.860 --> 00:16:51.100
 And when the leaders looked at this, they couldn't understand what was going on.

00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:54.180
 They couldn't understand why Jesus would be interested in those type of people

00:16:54.180 --> 00:17:00.140
 because no self-respecting person would ever hang around lost, broken, and sinful people.

00:17:00.139 --> 00:17:03.080
 And Jesus is doing it.

00:17:04.579 --> 00:17:07.859
 And when we read verse 2, we realize that all of this begins,

00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:12.559
 all of this dialogue begins because the Jewish guys, the leaders, they begin to grumble.

00:17:13.539 --> 00:17:16.680
 And as they grumble, Jesus tells this story to them.

00:17:16.859 --> 00:17:19.220
 And it's important to remember that whenever Jesus tells a story,

00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:21.180
 whenever you read a story in Hebrew culture,

00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:24.720
 there's always an assumption that you're going to identify with one of the characters.

00:17:25.639 --> 00:17:27.619
 That as you hear this story being played out,

00:17:27.619 --> 00:17:29.500
 you're sitting in the audience and you're going,

00:17:29.879 --> 00:17:31.599
 okay, which person is most like me?

00:17:32.479 --> 00:17:33.819
 Okay, I'm probably more like that person.

00:17:34.739 --> 00:17:36.119
 What do I learn from that person?

00:17:36.939 --> 00:17:37.959
 What was that person like?

00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:40.719
 What is God trying to teach me about that person?

00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:43.579
 And so as Jesus tells these two parables

00:17:43.579 --> 00:17:46.899
 and then the third one that we're going to cover in the next three weeks later,

00:17:47.219 --> 00:17:49.599
 our hope is that you would listen to these parables

00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:51.259
 and you would ask yourself the question,

00:17:51.479 --> 00:17:52.359
 who am I?

00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:58.439
 Which person most relates to me?

00:17:58.979 --> 00:18:01.919
 And as we look at this passage, I want to cover three things.

00:18:02.059 --> 00:18:04.259
 We're going to go through it quickly because we have an exercise at the end.

00:18:04.679 --> 00:18:08.679
 I want to look at sheep, lost things.

00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:13.599
 I want to look at shepherds, people who find lost things.

00:18:13.740 --> 00:18:17.659
 And I want to look at celebrations, what happens after we find lost things.

00:18:17.660 --> 00:18:22.220
 So sheep, shepherds, celebrations, lost things, people who find lost things.

00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:24.660
 And what do we do after we find lost things?

00:18:26.019 --> 00:18:27.519
 And in verse three and four, we read,

00:18:27.620 --> 00:18:29.740
 and so then he tells them this parable saying,

00:18:30.820 --> 00:18:33.279
 what man among you, if he had a hundred sheep

00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:35.160
 and had lost one of them,

00:18:35.500 --> 00:18:37.720
 does not leave the 99 in the open pasture

00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.779
 and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?

00:18:43.740 --> 00:18:44.560
 Lost things.

00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:47.179
 I wanted to bring a sheep in here today.

00:18:48.159 --> 00:18:49.759
 But my wife said, that's not a good idea.

00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:52.000
 Stink, make too much noise.

00:18:52.099 --> 00:18:53.259
 I said, yeah, but we have four kids.

00:18:53.879 --> 00:18:55.720
 We can just dress one of them up like a sheep

00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:56.960
 and have them come in here.

00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:01.859
 But instead, I brought this little sheep from our nativity scene.

00:19:01.940 --> 00:19:03.579
 I have to make sure that I don't break it,

00:19:03.639 --> 00:19:06.419
 but it's just this little sheep that I think will do well today.

00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:08.259
 But you know, the interesting thing about sheep

00:19:08.259 --> 00:19:11.799
 is that sheep are some of the dumbest animals in the world.

00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:14.960
 I mean, they are stupid.

00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:18.779
 Growing up on a farm, I often would talk to ranchers,

00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:21.480
 and on the ranches around us, they had cattle and sheep,

00:19:21.740 --> 00:19:23.220
 and the ranchers would tell me that sheeps

00:19:23.220 --> 00:19:26.899
 are one of the only symbiotic creatures that they know.

00:19:27.299 --> 00:19:30.139
 And what he meant by that is that they're one of the only animals

00:19:30.139 --> 00:19:32.940
 on the ranch that cannot survive by itself.

00:19:34.220 --> 00:19:37.019
 That the sheep needs the shepherd,

00:19:37.399 --> 00:19:38.899
 the sheep needs the rancher,

00:19:39.019 --> 00:19:41.579
 that if you put the sheep by itself, it will die.

00:19:41.579 --> 00:19:42.919
 It is totally symbiotic.

00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:46.439
 It's totally dependent upon the shepherd to come through for it.

00:19:46.439 --> 00:19:48.099
 Because if the shepherd doesn't come through for it,

00:19:48.179 --> 00:19:48.980
 it's going to die.

00:19:50.019 --> 00:19:50.740
 I mean, think about it.

00:19:50.779 --> 00:19:51.539
 Sheep are white,

00:19:52.539 --> 00:19:55.179
 and they graze on a green background.

00:19:56.240 --> 00:19:58.319
 I mean, they are helpless.

00:19:58.460 --> 00:19:59.220
 They can't run.

00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:00.460
 They can't fight.

00:20:00.659 --> 00:20:01.519
 They can't bite.

00:20:01.720 --> 00:20:02.679
 They can't climb.

00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:03.759
 They can't dig.

00:20:04.019 --> 00:20:05.799
 You're never going to see a football team

00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:08.960
 ever in the whole world called the fighting sheep.

00:20:08.960 --> 00:20:13.900
 You're never going to see a soccer team called the fluffy fighting sheep.

00:20:14.700 --> 00:20:15.759
 Go sheep!

00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:16.240
 Bah!

00:20:17.380 --> 00:20:21.000
 But that just doesn't induce terror at all.

00:20:21.299 --> 00:20:23.140
 I mean, sheep are helpless.

00:20:23.299 --> 00:20:25.900
 They only survive by the goodwill of the shepherd.

00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:30.019
 Another thing that I learned about sheep is that sheep like to eat.

00:20:31.319 --> 00:20:33.620
 Sheep like to eat and poop.

00:20:34.619 --> 00:20:35.819
 Eat, eat, eat, eat.

00:20:35.899 --> 00:20:36.779
 That's all that sheep do.

00:20:37.099 --> 00:20:38.379
 Sheep continually eat.

00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:41.139
 In fact, sheep, if you watch them anywhere in the pastures,

00:20:41.179 --> 00:20:44.219
 if you go with us to Israel this summer on May 16th when we do the trip,

00:20:44.419 --> 00:20:45.619
 you're going to see sheep everywhere,

00:20:45.919 --> 00:20:47.939
 and you're going to realize that sheep,

00:20:48.379 --> 00:20:49.559
 all they do is they eat.

00:20:49.639 --> 00:20:50.659
 They follow the food.

00:20:50.919 --> 00:20:53.259
 They go around, and they eat, and they eat, and they eat,

00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:55.899
 and they eat until their stomachs are full, and they're satisfied.

00:20:56.239 --> 00:20:59.479
 And sometimes I'm told that even sometimes if the sheep eats the wrong thing,

00:20:59.539 --> 00:21:01.559
 they eat so much that their stomachs just blow up.

00:21:01.559 --> 00:21:05.220
 Like clover or things like that.

00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:06.679
 And so they just continually eat.

00:21:06.940 --> 00:21:08.799
 And as the sheep is eating, it's walking around,

00:21:09.000 --> 00:21:14.559
 and all of a sudden it looks up, and it's lost.

00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:21.000
 I mean, it followed its stomach to a place where it got separated from the crowd,

00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:25.299
 and basically in fear we're told then that the sheep kind of walks around in a circle,

00:21:25.700 --> 00:21:30.079
 bat, bat, bat, looks for somebody to come help it, somebody to save it.

00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:33.000
 It looks for the pack, and then the sheep just kind of lays down.

00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:35.039
 Bat.

00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:37.200
 Bat.

00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:37.360
 Bat.

00:21:38.319 --> 00:21:40.720
 And it just continues to cry out.

00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:44.600
 And what you realize as you study animals and sheep in Scripture

00:21:44.600 --> 00:21:47.420
 is that sheep need to get rescued.

00:21:48.740 --> 00:21:50.360
 Now, the Bible talks a lot about sheep.

00:21:51.539 --> 00:21:53.980
 I mean, it talks over and over about sheep and shepherds.

00:21:54.840 --> 00:21:57.759
 I know this is going to offend some of us in here,

00:21:57.759 --> 00:22:03.940
 but the Bible says that you and I spiritually are a lot like sheep.

00:22:06.859 --> 00:22:08.039
 How do you feel about that?

00:22:09.339 --> 00:22:12.839
 The Scripture says that you and I feed on things

00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:17.500
 that we think is going to satisfy our soul.

00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:22.160
 That we walk through life, we walk through work,

00:22:22.379 --> 00:22:24.579
 we walk through the journey that God has us on,

00:22:24.579 --> 00:22:26.439
 and we eat, we eat, we eat,

00:22:26.579 --> 00:22:29.339
 and we eat all these things that we think are going to satisfy us,

00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:30.199
 that they're going to fill us up,

00:22:30.500 --> 00:22:31.699
 that are going to make us whole,

00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:33.919
 that are going to make us important,

00:22:34.159 --> 00:22:36.220
 that we fill up on things like reputation,

00:22:36.419 --> 00:22:37.639
 our family, our job,

00:22:38.639 --> 00:22:42.699
 sometimes our spiritual accomplishments.

00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:46.699
 And we keep chewing, and we keep chewing,

00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:47.460
 and we keep eating,

00:22:47.579 --> 00:22:49.980
 thinking that all of these things are going to satisfy us.

00:22:54.579 --> 00:22:56.259
 What are you chewing on today?

00:23:02.159 --> 00:23:03.720
 What are you following?

00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:09.699
 What are you munching on

00:23:09.699 --> 00:23:13.799
 that you hope is going to satisfy you,

00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:15.220
 that you hope is going to fill you up,

00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:18.039
 that you hope is going to make you complete and whole,

00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:20.299
 and that you're never going to have to eat again?

00:23:22.579 --> 00:23:23.240
 What is it?

00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:23.740
 What is it?

00:23:27.339 --> 00:23:30.460
 The rancher told me that eventually the sheep's appetite

00:23:30.460 --> 00:23:31.680
 is a thing that gets them lost.

00:23:31.740 --> 00:23:32.779
 They realize that they're lost,

00:23:32.920 --> 00:23:34.200
 and they start to cry out,

00:23:34.279 --> 00:23:35.559
 and in Montana when they cry out,

00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:37.180
 this big wolf comes along,

00:23:37.660 --> 00:23:38.880
 and the wolf says,

00:23:39.319 --> 00:23:41.319
 hey, can I help you get back to the shepherds?

00:23:43.539 --> 00:23:45.859
 No, that's the revised version of it.

00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:47.500
 That's the politically correct version of it.

00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:48.960
 The wolf sees the sheep,

00:23:49.019 --> 00:23:49.519
 and he thinks,

00:23:50.440 --> 00:23:51.039
 pork chops,

00:23:51.039 --> 00:23:53.059
 food.

00:23:54.159 --> 00:23:55.420
 But the passage here,

00:23:55.559 --> 00:23:56.700
 the bulletin here,

00:23:57.180 --> 00:23:58.379
 what we've written down for you,

00:23:58.639 --> 00:24:02.819
 it says that we all go off like sheep.

00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:07.059
 We all follow our appetites.

00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:08.740
 We all follow something that we hope

00:24:08.740 --> 00:24:11.079
 is going to give us fulfillment

00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:13.599
 and happiness and satisfaction,

00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:16.659
 and all that it does is it gets us lost.

00:24:20.219 --> 00:24:22.379
 In fact, the scripture says that in this passage,

00:24:22.779 --> 00:24:23.799
 the sheep and the coin,

00:24:24.259 --> 00:24:26.319
 they don't even know that they're lost.

00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:30.000
 They have no idea that they're lost.

00:24:31.439 --> 00:24:33.939
 They have no idea where they are.

00:24:35.279 --> 00:24:36.939
 And this passage also tells us

00:24:36.939 --> 00:24:38.439
 that the sheep and the coin

00:24:38.439 --> 00:24:41.119
 can do nothing

00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:43.980
 to fix a situation.

00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:48.839
 The sheep can do nothing

00:24:48.839 --> 00:24:52.000
 to fix its life.

00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:56.079
 How do you feel when you hear that?

00:24:58.240 --> 00:25:00.779
 You know, when the Pharisees heard Jesus say that,

00:25:01.480 --> 00:25:03.420
 they would have been incredibly,

00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:04.740
 incredibly offended.

00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:08.059
 Because in Jesus' day,

00:25:08.259 --> 00:25:09.819
 the religious people taught the people

00:25:09.819 --> 00:25:10.619
 in the congregation

00:25:10.619 --> 00:25:13.539
 to repent meant to work hard,

00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:16.720
 to be good,

00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:20.200
 to do all the right things.

00:25:21.100 --> 00:25:22.299
 And if you did all the right things,

00:25:22.360 --> 00:25:23.100
 if you worked hard,

00:25:23.160 --> 00:25:24.180
 if you were good enough,

00:25:25.360 --> 00:25:26.240
 eventually you'd become

00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:27.420
 one of the righteous ones.

00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:29.980
 And so for 200 years,

00:25:30.059 --> 00:25:30.960
 the rabbis taught that

00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:32.059
 if you did these things,

00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:33.779
 you would become one of the righteous ones.

00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:35.319
 You wouldn't need forgiveness.

00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:37.160
 You wouldn't need atonement.

00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:38.740
 You'd be good enough.

00:25:40.360 --> 00:25:41.839
 And so when Jesus told this story,

00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:43.980
 he highly offended everybody

00:25:43.980 --> 00:25:44.640
 who was listening.

00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:49.019
 Because they had their act together.

00:25:50.299 --> 00:25:51.400
 They knew what to do.

00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:54.460
 As I think about this story,

00:25:54.539 --> 00:25:54.640
 you know,

00:25:54.680 --> 00:25:56.380
 it probably offends a lot of people

00:25:56.380 --> 00:25:57.339
 in Hong Kong too,

00:25:57.519 --> 00:25:57.940
 doesn't it?

00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:01.019
 When you come to your friends

00:26:01.019 --> 00:26:01.660
 and you share with them

00:26:01.660 --> 00:26:02.559
 the truth of the gospel,

00:26:04.420 --> 00:26:05.559
 and how the gospel says

00:26:05.559 --> 00:26:08.299
 that Christ saves lost people,

00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:11.900
 that there's nothing that you can do

00:26:11.900 --> 00:26:14.019
 to un-lose yourself,

00:26:14.019 --> 00:26:17.859
 that you, like a sheep,

00:26:17.940 --> 00:26:18.799
 are totally helpless,

00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:19.839
 that you, like a coin,

00:26:20.119 --> 00:26:21.099
 are laying on the ground.

00:26:21.420 --> 00:26:22.279
 And when I've shared that

00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:22.859
 with some people,

00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:23.740
 sometimes in Hong Kong,

00:26:23.799 --> 00:26:24.539
 I've actually had people

00:26:24.539 --> 00:26:25.619
 spit on me before.

00:26:29.460 --> 00:26:30.740
 Because they don't like hearing that.

00:26:33.420 --> 00:26:34.559
 They don't like hearing that.

00:26:35.299 --> 00:26:36.220
 But Christianity says

00:26:36.220 --> 00:26:36.940
 that you and I,

00:26:37.019 --> 00:26:38.160
 we need a savior,

00:26:38.379 --> 00:26:39.160
 we need a shepherd,

00:26:40.220 --> 00:26:40.619
 sheep,

00:26:40.619 --> 00:26:43.339
 lost,

00:26:43.899 --> 00:26:45.699
 shepherds.

00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:47.959
 Verses four and five,

00:26:49.139 --> 00:26:50.139
 what man among you,

00:26:50.219 --> 00:26:51.139
 if he has a hundred sheep

00:26:51.139 --> 00:26:52.500
 and he has lost one of them,

00:26:53.159 --> 00:26:54.519
 does he not leave the 99

00:26:54.519 --> 00:26:55.359
 in the open pasture

00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:56.299
 and he goes after the one

00:26:56.299 --> 00:26:56.839
 which is lost

00:26:56.839 --> 00:26:57.639
 until he finds it?

00:26:58.539 --> 00:26:59.279
 And when he has found it,

00:26:59.299 --> 00:27:00.599
 he lays it on his shoulders.

00:27:01.179 --> 00:27:01.299
 Now,

00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:03.019
 we cannot understand this

00:27:03.019 --> 00:27:03.979
 because in the context

00:27:03.979 --> 00:27:04.819
 of what Jesus is saying,

00:27:05.239 --> 00:27:05.500
 people,

00:27:05.659 --> 00:27:06.719
 there would be so much emotion,

00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:07.799
 just like the emotion

00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:09.299
 I felt when I lost my kid

00:27:09.299 --> 00:27:10.799
 in that department store.

00:27:11.099 --> 00:27:11.899
 As he's sharing it,

00:27:11.940 --> 00:27:13.039
 everybody in the audience

00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:13.759
 would have felt

00:27:13.759 --> 00:27:14.759
 an incredible amount

00:27:14.759 --> 00:27:15.619
 of emotion

00:27:15.619 --> 00:27:17.339
 as you think of this pastor,

00:27:17.899 --> 00:27:18.480
 this shepherd,

00:27:18.619 --> 00:27:19.539
 going out and looking

00:27:19.539 --> 00:27:20.859
 for sheep everywhere.

00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:22.119
 The passage tells us

00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:22.480
 that the minute

00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:23.740
 the sheep was lost,

00:27:24.980 --> 00:27:25.700
 the shepherd left.

00:27:26.659 --> 00:27:26.839
 I mean,

00:27:26.859 --> 00:27:28.019
 he ran out immediately

00:27:28.019 --> 00:27:29.960
 to find that sheep.

00:27:30.220 --> 00:27:31.099
 The story tells us

00:27:31.099 --> 00:27:31.440
 that the minute

00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:32.259
 the woman realized

00:27:32.259 --> 00:27:33.319
 that she lost the coin,

00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:35.500
 she started tearing up things.

00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:36.480
 Now,

00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:37.359
 the coin is a very

00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:38.079
 interesting story.

00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:39.740
 The coin that the woman wore

00:27:39.740 --> 00:27:40.599
 was probably

00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:41.980
 ten little silver coins

00:27:41.980 --> 00:27:43.359
 and they represented

00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:44.119
 her dowry.

00:27:44.819 --> 00:27:45.359
 They represented

00:27:45.359 --> 00:27:46.000
 her identity.

00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:46.879
 They were something

00:27:46.879 --> 00:27:48.279
 that even the tax collectors

00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:49.240
 could not take away

00:27:49.240 --> 00:27:50.199
 because it was so important

00:27:50.199 --> 00:27:50.839
 in their culture.

00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:52.599
 And when that woman

00:27:52.599 --> 00:27:53.720
 lost that one coin,

00:27:53.980 --> 00:27:54.740
 what most people

00:27:54.740 --> 00:27:55.439
 would have assumed

00:27:55.439 --> 00:27:57.879
 was that she was unfaithful.

00:28:00.460 --> 00:28:01.960
 That she was unfaithful.

00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:04.819
 And so she was frantically

00:28:04.819 --> 00:28:06.519
 looking for that one coin

00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:07.400
 to put it back

00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:08.099
 on her headdress

00:28:08.099 --> 00:28:09.200
 before her husband

00:28:09.200 --> 00:28:10.279
 returned.

00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:12.160
 Because she didn't

00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:13.039
 want to be shamed.

00:28:13.139 --> 00:28:14.579
 She didn't want to be seen

00:28:14.579 --> 00:28:15.180
 as somebody

00:28:15.180 --> 00:28:16.819
 who was unfaithful.

00:28:17.180 --> 00:28:17.859
 And in this story,

00:28:17.940 --> 00:28:18.619
 what you see is that

00:28:18.619 --> 00:28:19.480
 both of these people,

00:28:20.039 --> 00:28:20.240
 the shepherd,

00:28:20.279 --> 00:28:20.759
 and this would have been

00:28:20.759 --> 00:28:21.680
 very offensive also

00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:22.420
 to the Pharisees,

00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:24.180
 don't ever tell a story

00:28:24.180 --> 00:28:24.680
 of a woman

00:28:24.680 --> 00:28:25.920
 being the hero

00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:27.660
 to a Jewish scribe

00:28:27.660 --> 00:28:28.960
 because they think

00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:29.559
 women are worthless.

00:28:30.859 --> 00:28:31.799
 Don't ever tell a story

00:28:31.799 --> 00:28:32.299
 of a shepherd

00:28:32.299 --> 00:28:33.139
 being a hero

00:28:33.140 --> 00:28:35.680
 to a Jewish holy man

00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:37.880
 because shepherds

00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:38.780
 are dirty.

00:28:39.460 --> 00:28:40.360
 But in this story,

00:28:40.460 --> 00:28:41.220
 both of these people

00:28:41.220 --> 00:28:42.220
 immediately get up

00:28:42.220 --> 00:28:43.140
 and they expend

00:28:43.140 --> 00:28:44.860
 huge amounts of energy.

00:28:45.780 --> 00:28:45.960
 I mean,

00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:47.000
 the search isn't easy.

00:28:47.300 --> 00:28:48.400
 They are tearing up things.

00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:49.020
 They are relentless.

00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:49.780
 They're frantic.

00:28:50.259 --> 00:28:51.740
 They are both spending time

00:28:51.740 --> 00:28:53.000
 and energy

00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:54.460
 and things they probably

00:28:54.460 --> 00:28:56.020
 don't have to spend.

00:28:56.800 --> 00:28:57.940
 The shepherd goes out

00:28:57.940 --> 00:28:58.580
 into the wilderness

00:28:58.580 --> 00:29:00.320
 and he risks everything.

00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:01.319
 He exposes himself

00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:01.879
 to danger,

00:29:02.899 --> 00:29:03.779
 to wild animals,

00:29:04.740 --> 00:29:05.359
 to bandits,

00:29:06.419 --> 00:29:07.399
 to sleepless nights.

00:29:08.339 --> 00:29:10.639
 He's risking everything

00:29:10.639 --> 00:29:12.119
 for that sheep.

00:29:13.879 --> 00:29:14.839
 And the passage says

00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:15.980
 that he pursues it

00:29:15.980 --> 00:29:16.980
 until he finds it.

00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:17.879
 The word is when.

00:29:17.980 --> 00:29:19.319
 It's not if he finds it.

00:29:19.539 --> 00:29:21.000
 It's when he finds it.

00:29:21.220 --> 00:29:22.220
 The shepherd pays

00:29:22.220 --> 00:29:23.319
 an incredibly high cost

00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:24.240
 and he goes out

00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:25.500
 and he searches for the sheep

00:29:25.500 --> 00:29:26.439
 until he finds it.

00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:33.099
 In our case,

00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:36.740
 Jesus the shepherd

00:29:36.740 --> 00:29:39.279
 gave everything.

00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:43.339
 When Christ came down

00:29:43.339 --> 00:29:44.000
 from heaven,

00:29:44.099 --> 00:29:44.819
 he gave up,

00:29:45.299 --> 00:29:46.720
 set aside his glory,

00:29:46.879 --> 00:29:47.480
 his position,

00:29:48.099 --> 00:29:48.980
 his place.

00:29:49.099 --> 00:29:50.819
 He was born in a manger

00:29:50.819 --> 00:29:52.200
 which was filthy and dirty.

00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:53.379
 He laid aside

00:29:53.379 --> 00:29:54.319
 all of these things

00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:55.359
 that he was known for

00:29:55.359 --> 00:29:57.439
 in heaven for eternity

00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:01.320
 to come look for sheep.

00:30:03.620 --> 00:30:04.559
 We're told that Jesus

00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:06.519
 gave up everything for us.

00:30:08.700 --> 00:30:09.840
 Have you ever thought about that?

00:30:13.340 --> 00:30:14.720
 Jesus gave up everything

00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:15.980
 for you.

00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:16.640
 Maybe,

00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:17.860
 sometimes I wake up

00:30:17.860 --> 00:30:18.240
 in the morning

00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:19.240
 and one of the exercises

00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:20.440
 I get is I look myself

00:30:20.440 --> 00:30:20.799
 in the mirror

00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:21.279
 and I say,

00:30:22.039 --> 00:30:23.500
 Jesus gave up everything

00:30:23.500 --> 00:30:25.500
 for Tobin.

00:30:27.440 --> 00:30:30.680
 Maybe repeat that

00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:31.640
 out loud.

00:30:31.759 --> 00:30:32.840
 Don't say Tobin,

00:30:33.360 --> 00:30:34.400
 though that's true,

00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:35.640
 but yourself.

00:30:37.380 --> 00:30:38.900
 Jesus gave up everything

00:30:38.900 --> 00:30:39.720
 for,

00:30:41.860 --> 00:30:43.360
 this is a classroom setting

00:30:43.360 --> 00:30:44.860
 so when I say it,

00:30:44.900 --> 00:30:45.519
 we'll repeat it,

00:30:45.580 --> 00:30:45.740
 okay?

00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:48.620
 Jesus gave up everything.

00:30:49.620 --> 00:30:51.720
 Jesus gave up everything

00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:55.299
 for your name.

00:30:55.299 --> 00:30:58.659
 Jesus gave up everything

00:30:58.659 --> 00:31:00.700
 for Tobin.

00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:03.659
 How do you feel

00:31:03.659 --> 00:31:05.899
 when you hear that?

00:31:06.899 --> 00:31:07.159
 I mean,

00:31:07.220 --> 00:31:08.799
 the scripture is really crazy here

00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:09.720
 because he says,

00:31:09.839 --> 00:31:10.379
 on one hand,

00:31:10.740 --> 00:31:11.539
 you are a dumb,

00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:13.079
 stupid sheep

00:31:13.079 --> 00:31:14.419
 that follows your gut

00:31:14.419 --> 00:31:15.599
 and your appetite

00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:16.700
 and you get lost.

00:31:16.980 --> 00:31:17.099
 Now,

00:31:17.139 --> 00:31:17.559
 on the other hand,

00:31:17.579 --> 00:31:17.879
 it says,

00:31:17.879 --> 00:31:19.500
 you are so valuable.

00:31:21.259 --> 00:31:22.859
 You are so special

00:31:22.859 --> 00:31:26.439
 that God withheld nothing

00:31:26.439 --> 00:31:29.899
 to find you.

00:31:31.839 --> 00:31:32.679
 On one hand,

00:31:32.719 --> 00:31:33.839
 we follow our appetites

00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:34.299
 and we eat

00:31:34.299 --> 00:31:34.919
 and we get lost.

00:31:35.219 --> 00:31:35.779
 On the other hand,

00:31:35.819 --> 00:31:36.439
 we're told that

00:31:36.439 --> 00:31:38.639
 God gave up everything

00:31:38.639 --> 00:31:39.719
 for us

00:31:39.719 --> 00:31:41.939
 to bring us here.

00:31:43.539 --> 00:31:44.399
 You read the passage

00:31:44.399 --> 00:31:45.000
 and it goes on

00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:45.259
 and it says,

00:31:45.439 --> 00:31:46.299
 not only did the shepherd

00:31:46.299 --> 00:31:47.740
 find us,

00:31:48.299 --> 00:31:48.919
 but it says

00:31:48.919 --> 00:31:49.459
 that the shepherd

00:31:49.460 --> 00:31:51.500
 put us on his shoulders

00:31:51.500 --> 00:31:53.799
 and he carried us.

00:31:54.460 --> 00:31:55.279
 Think about that.

00:31:55.620 --> 00:31:56.539
 When you look for sheep,

00:31:56.700 --> 00:31:57.840
 sometimes the easy thing

00:31:57.840 --> 00:31:58.500
 is finding them

00:31:58.500 --> 00:31:59.100
 because they're green

00:31:59.100 --> 00:32:00.079
 or they're white

00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:00.779
 in a green field.

00:32:01.140 --> 00:32:02.019
 But the hard thing is

00:32:02.019 --> 00:32:02.980
 is that the sheep,

00:32:03.539 --> 00:32:04.380
 unlike a dog

00:32:04.380 --> 00:32:04.880
 or whatever,

00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:05.519
 you come up to and say,

00:32:05.600 --> 00:32:06.120
 okay, come on.

00:32:06.660 --> 00:32:07.100
 Let's go.

00:32:07.259 --> 00:32:07.779
 Time to go.

00:32:08.500 --> 00:32:09.700
 The sheep is so fearful

00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:10.799
 that it just lays there.

00:32:10.880 --> 00:32:11.380
 It does nothing.

00:32:12.860 --> 00:32:13.400
 And so the shepherd

00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:14.500
 actually has to go down

00:32:14.500 --> 00:32:15.519
 and he has to tie

00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:16.400
 the legs of the sheep

00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:17.079
 and he has to put

00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:18.039
 the sheep over his neck

00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:20.099
 so he has 50 or 70 pounds

00:32:20.099 --> 00:32:23.059
 of sheep over his neck

00:32:23.059 --> 00:32:26.920
 and he walks back to home,

00:32:27.019 --> 00:32:28.240
 we're told in the scripture,

00:32:29.000 --> 00:32:30.180
 and we realize

00:32:30.180 --> 00:32:31.859
 that often finding the sheep

00:32:31.859 --> 00:32:33.659
 is the easy thing,

00:32:34.940 --> 00:32:37.980
 but bringing them back home

00:32:37.980 --> 00:32:42.039
 is often very difficult.

00:32:45.500 --> 00:32:46.259
 Some of you know

00:32:46.259 --> 00:32:46.980
 what I'm talking about.

00:32:48.039 --> 00:32:49.379
 because you have kids

00:32:49.379 --> 00:32:51.119
 that are lost.

00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:53.879
 Some of you know

00:32:53.879 --> 00:32:54.559
 what I'm talking about

00:32:54.559 --> 00:32:56.599
 because you have a spouse

00:32:56.599 --> 00:32:59.099
 who is lost.

00:33:01.279 --> 00:33:02.399
 Some of you might know

00:33:02.399 --> 00:33:03.019
 what I'm talking about

00:33:03.019 --> 00:33:03.980
 because you're sitting in here

00:33:03.980 --> 00:33:04.319
 going,

00:33:05.059 --> 00:33:06.619
 I'm lost.

00:33:08.379 --> 00:33:09.740
 But the passage says

00:33:09.740 --> 00:33:10.279
 that Christ

00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:12.720
 does everything,

00:33:13.099 --> 00:33:14.180
 he gives everything,

00:33:14.500 --> 00:33:15.220
 he pursues,

00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:16.399
 he seeks us out

00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:17.480
 until he finds us

00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:18.480
 and not only does he

00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:19.240
 do that,

00:33:19.300 --> 00:33:20.000
 but he comes down,

00:33:20.080 --> 00:33:20.940
 he picks us up

00:33:20.940 --> 00:33:22.100
 as we were talking about earlier,

00:33:22.320 --> 00:33:23.580
 he puts us over his shoulders

00:33:23.580 --> 00:33:25.120
 and he walks with us

00:33:25.120 --> 00:33:26.440
 all the way.

00:33:28.440 --> 00:33:29.220
 And the question

00:33:29.220 --> 00:33:30.180
 we have to ask ourselves

00:33:30.180 --> 00:33:31.320
 today guys is,

00:33:32.320 --> 00:33:35.740
 do we trust him?

00:33:35.740 --> 00:33:42.240
 Do we trust Jesus

00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.420
 to carry us?

00:33:46.839 --> 00:33:47.920
 Do we trust him

00:33:47.920 --> 00:33:48.539
 to carry us

00:33:48.539 --> 00:33:49.279
 through our marriage?

00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:52.160
 Do we trust him

00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:53.019
 to get us married?

00:33:54.819 --> 00:33:55.660
 Do we trust him

00:33:55.660 --> 00:33:56.160
 to carry us

00:33:56.160 --> 00:33:57.420
 through our work?

00:33:58.380 --> 00:33:58.920
 Do we trust him

00:33:58.920 --> 00:33:59.380
 to carry us

00:33:59.380 --> 00:34:00.079
 through parenting

00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:00.819
 and parenthood?

00:34:01.700 --> 00:34:02.779
 Do we trust him

00:34:02.779 --> 00:34:04.019
 to carry us

00:34:04.019 --> 00:34:05.440
 through life?

00:34:07.500 --> 00:34:08.420
 And the passage

00:34:08.420 --> 00:34:09.619
 says over and over again

00:34:09.619 --> 00:34:11.219
 that Christ is good,

00:34:11.340 --> 00:34:12.300
 he is the good shepherd

00:34:12.300 --> 00:34:13.880
 that he comes alongside of us

00:34:13.880 --> 00:34:15.159
 and that he finds us

00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:16.380
 and he picks us up

00:34:16.380 --> 00:34:17.539
 and that he carries us

00:34:17.539 --> 00:34:18.259
 and he's good

00:34:18.259 --> 00:34:19.139
 and that his arms

00:34:19.139 --> 00:34:20.279
 are always on us.

00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:23.119
 It's not that our hands

00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:24.099
 are always on Christ

00:34:24.099 --> 00:34:24.940
 because they're not,

00:34:26.820 --> 00:34:28.119
 but that our hands,

00:34:28.320 --> 00:34:28.960
 his hands,

00:34:29.039 --> 00:34:30.360
 are always holding us

00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:32.059
 and guarding us.

00:34:32.059 --> 00:34:34.219
 So we have sheep,

00:34:34.360 --> 00:34:34.860
 lost things,

00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:35.599
 we have shepherds,

00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:36.679
 people who find lost things

00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:38.059
 and finally we have celebrations

00:34:38.059 --> 00:34:39.460
 and that's the easy part.

00:34:40.519 --> 00:34:41.679
 Verses 5 and 7,

00:34:41.980 --> 00:34:42.679
 then when he found it

00:34:42.679 --> 00:34:43.559
 he laid it on his shoulders

00:34:43.559 --> 00:34:44.099
 rejoicing

00:34:44.099 --> 00:34:44.820
 and when he comes home

00:34:44.820 --> 00:34:45.880
 he calls together his friends

00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:46.420
 and his neighbors

00:34:46.420 --> 00:34:46.880
 saying to him,

00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:48.019
 rejoice with me

00:34:48.019 --> 00:34:48.980
 for I found my sheep

00:34:48.980 --> 00:34:49.799
 which is lost.

00:34:50.860 --> 00:34:52.019
 I tell you in the same way

00:34:52.019 --> 00:34:53.119
 that there'll be more joy

00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:54.139
 in heaven over one sinner

00:34:54.139 --> 00:34:54.559
 who repents

00:34:54.559 --> 00:34:55.799
 and over 99 righteous people

00:34:55.799 --> 00:34:56.659
 who need no repentance.

00:34:57.960 --> 00:34:58.480
 And when the woman

00:34:58.480 --> 00:34:59.320
 cleans out her house

00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:00.299
 and she finds her coins

00:35:00.299 --> 00:35:01.380
 and when she finds it,

00:35:01.420 --> 00:35:01.779
 verse 9,

00:35:02.059 --> 00:35:03.039
 she calls together her friends

00:35:03.039 --> 00:35:03.559
 and her neighbors

00:35:03.559 --> 00:35:03.960
 and she says,

00:35:04.019 --> 00:35:04.940
 rejoice with me

00:35:04.940 --> 00:35:08.239
 for I found the coin

00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:09.099
 which I had lost.

00:35:10.840 --> 00:35:11.579
 In the same way

00:35:11.579 --> 00:35:12.340
 I tell you in the presence

00:35:12.340 --> 00:35:13.480
 of angels and of God

00:35:13.480 --> 00:35:15.719
 there is so much joy

00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:17.360
 over one sinner

00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:18.659
 who repents.

00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:21.980
 And the scripture here says

00:35:21.980 --> 00:35:23.039
 that as God

00:35:23.039 --> 00:35:24.759
 finds us,

00:35:24.799 --> 00:35:26.000
 as God brings us back

00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:26.500
 in heaven,

00:35:26.659 --> 00:35:28.279
 there's this massive celebration.

00:35:28.280 --> 00:35:31.060
 that angels are screaming,

00:35:31.340 --> 00:35:33.460
 that people are giving high fives,

00:35:33.740 --> 00:35:35.100
 that everybody is out of control,

00:35:35.340 --> 00:35:37.340
 and that heaven is a celebration.

00:35:39.019 --> 00:35:40.180
 Now when you read the passage,

00:35:40.340 --> 00:35:41.140
 you realize really quickly

00:35:41.140 --> 00:35:43.140
 the Pharisees hated that.

00:35:45.060 --> 00:35:46.460
 The Pharisees don't like people

00:35:46.460 --> 00:35:47.260
 coming to Christ.

00:35:48.560 --> 00:35:50.040
 The Pharisees don't like joy.

00:35:50.780 --> 00:35:53.040
 The Pharisees wanted honor.

00:35:53.039 --> 00:35:56.019
 The Pharisees wanted

00:35:56.019 --> 00:35:57.079
 special treatment.

00:35:57.219 --> 00:35:58.039
 The Pharisees wanted

00:35:58.039 --> 00:35:59.380
 to save their place.

00:35:59.500 --> 00:36:00.239
 They wanted heaven

00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:01.619
 only to be filled

00:36:01.619 --> 00:36:02.719
 with special,

00:36:03.219 --> 00:36:03.699
 important,

00:36:04.259 --> 00:36:05.619
 significant people.

00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:06.360
 In fact,

00:36:06.420 --> 00:36:06.980
 the Pharisees

00:36:06.980 --> 00:36:09.279
 majored their whole life

00:36:09.279 --> 00:36:10.279
 on technicalities

00:36:10.279 --> 00:36:10.960
 of the law.

00:36:12.179 --> 00:36:13.099
 And when they talked

00:36:13.099 --> 00:36:14.000
 about the law

00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:14.559
 and they talked

00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:15.259
 about redemption,

00:36:15.539 --> 00:36:16.279
 it was all about

00:36:16.279 --> 00:36:17.179
 what you had to do,

00:36:17.259 --> 00:36:18.000
 what you had to keep,

00:36:18.019 --> 00:36:18.880
 and what you had to be.

00:36:19.680 --> 00:36:20.260
 And they developed

00:36:20.260 --> 00:36:21.160
 this whole system

00:36:21.160 --> 00:36:21.820
 of spirituality

00:36:21.820 --> 00:36:23.500
 so that when people

00:36:23.500 --> 00:36:24.700
 walked into the church

00:36:24.700 --> 00:36:25.240
 or they walked

00:36:25.240 --> 00:36:26.200
 into the community group

00:36:26.200 --> 00:36:26.720
 or they walked

00:36:26.720 --> 00:36:27.260
 into wherever

00:36:27.260 --> 00:36:28.940
 the leaders were meeting,

00:36:30.420 --> 00:36:31.760
 immediately they weren't welcomed

00:36:31.760 --> 00:36:34.480
 because they knew

00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:35.180
 they were lost.

00:36:38.019 --> 00:36:39.340
 They knew that they were dirty.

00:36:40.900 --> 00:36:41.840
 They knew that there was

00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:42.599
 no way

00:36:42.599 --> 00:36:44.539
 that they could come

00:36:44.539 --> 00:36:45.340
 to Christ

00:36:45.340 --> 00:36:46.960
 on their own

00:36:46.960 --> 00:36:48.980
 because their heart

00:36:48.980 --> 00:36:50.039
 was so lost.

00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:51.539
 You know,

00:36:51.579 --> 00:36:52.039
 we're told

00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:53.119
 that when Jesus says

00:36:53.119 --> 00:36:54.480
 this in this story here,

00:36:54.900 --> 00:36:55.840
 it's the first time

00:36:55.840 --> 00:36:56.800
 in 200 years

00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:57.679
 the people of God

00:36:57.679 --> 00:36:58.639
 actually heard

00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:01.059
 that God searches

00:37:01.059 --> 00:37:02.119
 for lost people.

00:37:03.880 --> 00:37:05.099
 Up until that point,

00:37:05.320 --> 00:37:06.599
 all the teachers taught

00:37:06.599 --> 00:37:07.740
 that when the sheep

00:37:07.740 --> 00:37:08.579
 got lost,

00:37:08.860 --> 00:37:10.059
 the sheep was on his own

00:37:10.059 --> 00:37:11.840
 because he put himself there

00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:12.659
 and the sheep

00:37:12.659 --> 00:37:13.440
 needs to get back,

00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:14.599
 he needs to get his act together,

00:37:14.720 --> 00:37:15.480
 he needs to be good,

00:37:15.740 --> 00:37:16.539
 he needs to find his way

00:37:16.539 --> 00:37:16.940
 back home.

00:37:17.079 --> 00:37:17.579
 Because if he could

00:37:17.579 --> 00:37:18.300
 find his way lost,

00:37:18.360 --> 00:37:18.940
 he can find his way

00:37:18.940 --> 00:37:19.400
 back home.

00:37:21.519 --> 00:37:22.920
 But for the first time

00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:25.000
 in history,

00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:27.860
 Jesus says no.

00:37:30.900 --> 00:37:31.860
 Jesus says there's

00:37:31.860 --> 00:37:32.460
 this huge,

00:37:32.679 --> 00:37:33.480
 massive celebration

00:37:33.480 --> 00:37:34.900
 because God

00:37:34.900 --> 00:37:35.539
 has gone out

00:37:35.539 --> 00:37:36.380
 and he's found

00:37:36.380 --> 00:37:37.139
 the sheep

00:37:37.139 --> 00:37:38.320
 and he's brought them back

00:37:38.320 --> 00:37:39.800
 and the idea of joy

00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:41.000
 is uncontrollable.

00:37:42.260 --> 00:37:43.179
 And so when we read it,

00:37:43.220 --> 00:37:43.480
 we go,

00:37:43.659 --> 00:37:44.099
 well, they're joyful,

00:37:44.220 --> 00:37:44.639
 that's nice,

00:37:44.720 --> 00:37:45.179
 they're happy,

00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:45.780
 it's exciting,

00:37:45.780 --> 00:37:46.720
 but the words

00:37:46.720 --> 00:37:47.940
 are out of control joy.

00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:50.000
 The words

00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:50.580
 are excitement,

00:37:50.680 --> 00:37:51.200
 the words are like

00:37:51.200 --> 00:37:51.820
 when you find

00:37:51.820 --> 00:37:52.880
 your lost child

00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:53.840
 that you've been looking for

00:37:53.840 --> 00:37:54.920
 for an hour

00:37:54.920 --> 00:37:55.820
 or two hours.

00:37:56.019 --> 00:37:56.700
 The words are like

00:37:56.700 --> 00:37:57.100
 when you found

00:37:57.100 --> 00:37:57.880
 anything lost

00:37:57.880 --> 00:37:58.540
 is significant

00:37:58.540 --> 00:37:59.080
 and important

00:37:59.080 --> 00:38:00.260
 and you found it,

00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:01.320
 you're out of control

00:38:01.320 --> 00:38:01.980
 and you're excited

00:38:01.980 --> 00:38:02.780
 and you're rejoicing

00:38:02.780 --> 00:38:03.580
 and you're celebrating.

00:38:05.300 --> 00:38:06.220
 And so the passage here

00:38:06.220 --> 00:38:06.620
 says that

00:38:06.620 --> 00:38:07.420
 when Christ

00:38:07.420 --> 00:38:08.300
 finds

00:38:08.300 --> 00:38:09.800
 lost people,

00:38:09.800 --> 00:38:11.760
 heaven erupts.

00:38:14.380 --> 00:38:14.680
 In fact,

00:38:14.700 --> 00:38:15.920
 he says there's more joy

00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:17.180
 out of one lost sinner

00:38:17.180 --> 00:38:18.440
 coming to Christ

00:38:18.440 --> 00:38:20.600
 than 99 righteous people

00:38:20.600 --> 00:38:22.039
 who need no repentance.

00:38:23.700 --> 00:38:24.920
 Let me ask you a question.

00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:28.620
 Are there any righteous people

00:38:28.620 --> 00:38:31.140
 who need no repentance?

00:38:31.139 --> 00:38:31.319
 repentance?

00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:38.739
 God's word says no.

00:38:40.119 --> 00:38:40.960
 But everybody

00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:42.299
 that Jesus was talking to

00:38:42.299 --> 00:38:44.839
 thought that they didn't need it.

00:38:46.019 --> 00:38:47.519
 And the passage says here

00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:48.539
 that everyone

00:38:48.539 --> 00:38:49.839
 needs repentance,

00:38:50.480 --> 00:38:51.219
 everyone needs

00:38:51.219 --> 00:38:51.839
 to be reminded

00:38:51.839 --> 00:38:52.779
 of what God

00:38:52.779 --> 00:38:53.659
 has done in their life

00:38:53.659 --> 00:38:55.039
 and that this idea

00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:55.639
 of people

00:38:55.639 --> 00:38:57.179
 coming to know Christ

00:38:57.179 --> 00:38:58.379
 is out of control,

00:38:58.480 --> 00:38:59.039
 it's a celebration,

00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:00.360
 and sometimes I think

00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:00.800
 in a church

00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:01.480
 we miss it.

00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:04.559
 I miss it.

00:39:06.420 --> 00:39:07.320
 Because I think about

00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:08.079
 the things that bring me

00:39:08.079 --> 00:39:08.860
 joy in my day.

00:39:10.639 --> 00:39:11.380
 I'm joyful

00:39:11.380 --> 00:39:12.639
 because I make my numbers.

00:39:12.980 --> 00:39:13.539
 I'm joyful

00:39:13.539 --> 00:39:15.460
 because I got a raise.

00:39:15.579 --> 00:39:16.039
 I'm joyful

00:39:16.039 --> 00:39:17.159
 because my kids

00:39:17.159 --> 00:39:18.159
 were finally obedient

00:39:18.159 --> 00:39:19.219
 and they did well

00:39:19.219 --> 00:39:21.199
 in their school.

00:39:22.139 --> 00:39:22.880
 I'm joyful

00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:23.679
 that this happened

00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:24.599
 and this relationship

00:39:24.599 --> 00:39:25.239
 was built

00:39:25.239 --> 00:39:26.420
 but when I hear about

00:39:26.420 --> 00:39:27.619
 someone coming to Christ,

00:39:27.619 --> 00:39:30.980
 often I just kind of go,

00:39:31.639 --> 00:39:32.859
 wow, that's really cool.

00:39:34.159 --> 00:39:35.019
 God's amazing.

00:39:36.579 --> 00:39:37.799
 But the passage here

00:39:37.799 --> 00:39:39.059
 says that when someone

00:39:39.059 --> 00:39:41.619
 comes back to God,

00:39:42.099 --> 00:39:43.279
 heaven erupts

00:39:43.279 --> 00:39:44.719
 in joy

00:39:44.719 --> 00:39:46.079
 and in happiness

00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:47.319
 and celebration.

00:39:49.099 --> 00:39:49.819
 And if that's what

00:39:49.819 --> 00:39:51.099
 heaven is like,

00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:54.400
 then we as a church

00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:56.519
 need to think about

00:39:56.519 --> 00:39:57.420
 how we can make

00:39:57.420 --> 00:39:58.199
 earth

00:39:58.199 --> 00:40:00.000
 like that also.

00:40:03.099 --> 00:40:03.539
 Sheep,

00:40:03.659 --> 00:40:04.400
 lost things,

00:40:05.259 --> 00:40:05.599
 sinners,

00:40:06.280 --> 00:40:06.519
 I mean,

00:40:06.639 --> 00:40:07.159
 shepherds

00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:08.039
 who go after us

00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:08.960
 and find us

00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:09.780
 and bring us back

00:40:09.780 --> 00:40:11.079
 in celebrations

00:40:11.079 --> 00:40:11.860
 what it looks like.

00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:14.019
 I want to end

00:40:14.019 --> 00:40:15.400
 with a couple points

00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:15.860
 and then we're going

00:40:15.860 --> 00:40:16.820
 to do a little exercise

00:40:16.820 --> 00:40:17.159
 for us

00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:17.380
 because I think

00:40:17.380 --> 00:40:17.980
 it's really important

00:40:17.980 --> 00:40:18.820
 for us as a church,

00:40:19.280 --> 00:40:20.099
 especially as we enter

00:40:20.099 --> 00:40:21.039
 into our second year.

00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:22.880
 This is some thoughts

00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:23.320
 I've been thinking.

00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:23.960
 I'm just going to put

00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:24.420
 them out there.

00:40:24.420 --> 00:40:25.079
 This is not how

00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:25.740
 you do a sermon,

00:40:26.300 --> 00:40:27.900
 so I'll get critiqued

00:40:27.900 --> 00:40:28.200
 later,

00:40:28.519 --> 00:40:29.340
 but there are things

00:40:29.340 --> 00:40:29.619
 that have been

00:40:29.619 --> 00:40:30.180
 on my heart

00:40:30.180 --> 00:40:30.940
 as I've been pondering

00:40:30.940 --> 00:40:31.280
 and thinking

00:40:31.280 --> 00:40:31.880
 through these things.

00:40:32.539 --> 00:40:33.220
 I want to share

00:40:33.220 --> 00:40:33.500
 this with you

00:40:33.500 --> 00:40:33.920
 really quickly.

00:40:35.860 --> 00:40:36.539
 As we look at

00:40:36.539 --> 00:40:37.039
 the story,

00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:38.240
 the sheep

00:40:38.240 --> 00:40:39.019
 and the coin

00:40:39.019 --> 00:40:40.360
 in the story,

00:40:40.539 --> 00:40:41.320
 it does nothing.

00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:44.639
 It just gets lost.

00:40:46.700 --> 00:40:47.559
 The action

00:40:47.559 --> 00:40:48.300
 that the sheep

00:40:48.300 --> 00:40:48.840
 and the coin

00:40:48.840 --> 00:40:49.740
 does is it

00:40:49.740 --> 00:40:50.559
 just gets lost

00:40:50.559 --> 00:40:52.320
 and that getting lost

00:40:52.320 --> 00:40:53.160
 is what causes

00:40:53.160 --> 00:40:53.680
 the shepherd

00:40:53.680 --> 00:40:55.480
 to leave everything

00:40:55.480 --> 00:40:57.400
 to go after it.

00:40:58.620 --> 00:40:59.420
 The sheep

00:40:59.420 --> 00:41:00.180
 doesn't earn

00:41:00.180 --> 00:41:00.500
 the right

00:41:00.500 --> 00:41:01.180
 to be saved.

00:41:02.340 --> 00:41:03.160
 The sheep

00:41:03.160 --> 00:41:04.380
 doesn't change

00:41:04.380 --> 00:41:04.980
 its life.

00:41:06.240 --> 00:41:06.700
 The sheep

00:41:06.700 --> 00:41:07.080
 doesn't get

00:41:07.080 --> 00:41:07.920
 its act together.

00:41:08.940 --> 00:41:10.019
 People can't earn

00:41:10.019 --> 00:41:10.880
 God's love

00:41:10.880 --> 00:41:12.200
 and respect

00:41:12.200 --> 00:41:13.620
 and sometimes

00:41:13.620 --> 00:41:14.620
 we walk in world

00:41:14.620 --> 00:41:14.960
 and we think,

00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:15.059
 well,

00:41:15.059 --> 00:41:15.519
 I've got to earn

00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:16.180
 God's love

00:41:16.180 --> 00:41:16.559
 and respect

00:41:16.559 --> 00:41:17.580
 before he saves me

00:41:17.580 --> 00:41:18.280
 and the passage

00:41:18.280 --> 00:41:19.500
 says that's impossible.

00:41:19.500 --> 00:41:23.019
 The story tells us

00:41:23.019 --> 00:41:23.519
 that repentance

00:41:23.519 --> 00:41:24.719
 is this.

00:41:26.579 --> 00:41:27.199
 Repentance

00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:29.260
 is being found

00:41:29.260 --> 00:41:31.179
 by God

00:41:31.179 --> 00:41:34.139
 in allowing him

00:41:34.139 --> 00:41:35.980
 to find us.

00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:39.800
 There were 99 people

00:41:39.800 --> 00:41:40.960
 that Jesus was talking to.

00:41:42.940 --> 00:41:43.760
 Everybody there

00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:44.420
 was lost.

00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:46.840
 Only one person

00:41:46.840 --> 00:41:47.760
 knew he was lost

00:41:47.760 --> 00:41:48.380
 and he was willing

00:41:48.380 --> 00:41:49.039
 to allow God

00:41:49.039 --> 00:41:49.720
 to find him.

00:41:50.960 --> 00:41:52.360
 The 99 Pharisees

00:41:52.360 --> 00:41:52.900
 didn't think

00:41:52.900 --> 00:41:53.619
 that they were lost

00:41:53.619 --> 00:41:54.300
 and so they said,

00:41:54.740 --> 00:41:54.800
 well,

00:41:54.840 --> 00:41:55.200
 I don't need

00:41:55.200 --> 00:41:55.740
 to be found.

00:41:58.160 --> 00:41:59.059
 And the passage

00:41:59.059 --> 00:41:59.599
 says here

00:41:59.599 --> 00:42:00.180
 that repentance

00:42:00.180 --> 00:42:01.340
 is being found

00:42:01.340 --> 00:42:02.079
 by Christ

00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:04.320
 in allowing him

00:42:04.320 --> 00:42:05.119
 to find us.

00:42:06.680 --> 00:42:07.539
 The second thing

00:42:07.539 --> 00:42:08.039
 that's been sticking

00:42:08.039 --> 00:42:08.539
 in my head

00:42:08.539 --> 00:42:09.519
 is that searching

00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:10.539
 for lost people

00:42:10.539 --> 00:42:11.440
 is really difficult.

00:42:13.660 --> 00:42:14.099
 Searching

00:42:14.099 --> 00:42:14.500
 for people

00:42:14.500 --> 00:42:15.220
 who don't want

00:42:15.220 --> 00:42:15.860
 to know God,

00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:16.760
 who are running away,

00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:17.900
 can often be

00:42:17.900 --> 00:42:18.940
 frustrating,

00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:20.580
 hard,

00:42:21.760 --> 00:42:22.420
 cause a lot

00:42:22.420 --> 00:42:22.940
 of time,

00:42:23.640 --> 00:42:24.700
 a lot of energy

00:42:24.700 --> 00:42:26.200
 and sometimes

00:42:26.200 --> 00:42:27.200
 we do it

00:42:27.200 --> 00:42:27.980
 and we see

00:42:27.980 --> 00:42:28.540
 very,

00:42:28.740 --> 00:42:29.640
 very little result.

00:42:30.900 --> 00:42:31.680
 It's much easier

00:42:31.680 --> 00:42:33.120
 to start a new program

00:42:33.120 --> 00:42:33.780
 or it's much easier

00:42:33.780 --> 00:42:34.480
 to build a building

00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:35.220
 or it's much easier

00:42:35.220 --> 00:42:36.040
 to do something

00:42:36.040 --> 00:42:36.540
 that we see

00:42:36.540 --> 00:42:37.840
 physically happening

00:42:37.840 --> 00:42:38.760
 but if we say

00:42:38.760 --> 00:42:39.320
 we're here

00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:40.260
 to reach out

00:42:40.260 --> 00:42:41.120
 to lost people,

00:42:41.320 --> 00:42:42.780
 that is very difficult

00:42:42.780 --> 00:42:43.380
 and takes a lot

00:42:43.380 --> 00:42:43.780
 of time.

00:42:46.760 --> 00:42:47.500
 The passage

00:42:47.500 --> 00:42:48.119
 tells us

00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:48.640
 that Jesus

00:42:48.640 --> 00:42:49.619
 who is our shepherd

00:42:49.619 --> 00:42:53.079
 became a sheep

00:42:53.079 --> 00:42:56.180
 so that we

00:42:56.180 --> 00:42:57.220
 as his sheep

00:42:57.220 --> 00:43:00.280
 can become shepherds

00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:01.940
 to the people

00:43:01.940 --> 00:43:02.720
 around us.

00:43:04.140 --> 00:43:05.200
 That's what this passage

00:43:05.200 --> 00:43:05.900
 is all about.

00:43:06.900 --> 00:43:08.099
 It's about God's joy

00:43:08.099 --> 00:43:09.380
 in finding lost people

00:43:09.380 --> 00:43:10.920
 and about us

00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:11.660
 as sheep

00:43:11.659 --> 00:43:12.920
 participating

00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:13.980
 and joining

00:43:13.980 --> 00:43:14.539
 with him.

00:43:15.460 --> 00:43:16.319
 When we started

00:43:16.319 --> 00:43:16.859
 the church

00:43:16.859 --> 00:43:18.239
 two years ago,

00:43:19.119 --> 00:43:19.960
 we preached

00:43:19.960 --> 00:43:20.899
 on Luke passage.

00:43:21.719 --> 00:43:22.920
 We talked about

00:43:22.920 --> 00:43:23.759
 Christ

00:43:23.759 --> 00:43:24.960
 in a home

00:43:24.960 --> 00:43:27.359
 and as he was there

00:43:27.359 --> 00:43:28.179
 some men

00:43:28.179 --> 00:43:29.279
 brought a stretcher

00:43:29.279 --> 00:43:30.539
 and on this stretcher

00:43:30.539 --> 00:43:30.960
 they brought

00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:31.619
 their friend

00:43:31.619 --> 00:43:32.480
 who needed

00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:32.940
 desperately

00:43:32.940 --> 00:43:34.159
 to meet Christ.

00:43:35.359 --> 00:43:36.099
 This friend

00:43:36.099 --> 00:43:37.119
 desperately needed

00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:38.239
 to meet Christ

00:43:38.239 --> 00:43:39.019
 to be healed

00:43:39.019 --> 00:43:40.799
 and so we went

00:43:40.799 --> 00:43:41.359
 through the story

00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:41.860
 and then we brought

00:43:41.860 --> 00:43:42.740
 out this stretcher

00:43:42.740 --> 00:43:44.000
 right there

00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:45.260
 and over

00:43:45.260 --> 00:43:46.019
 two years

00:43:46.019 --> 00:43:46.539
 we've been

00:43:46.539 --> 00:43:47.740
 signing names

00:43:47.740 --> 00:43:49.500
 of people

00:43:49.500 --> 00:43:50.280
 in our lives

00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:52.800
 who are lost,

00:43:53.800 --> 00:43:55.720
 who need

00:43:55.720 --> 00:43:56.360
 to be found,

00:43:57.880 --> 00:43:58.420
 people that we're

00:43:58.420 --> 00:43:59.180
 committed to praying

00:43:59.180 --> 00:43:59.519
 for.

00:44:00.700 --> 00:44:01.680
 The most amazing

00:44:01.680 --> 00:44:02.260
 thing to me

00:44:02.260 --> 00:44:02.680
 is sometimes

00:44:02.680 --> 00:44:03.380
 when we see people

00:44:03.380 --> 00:44:04.000
 come up here now

00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:05.120
 and they come up

00:44:05.120 --> 00:44:05.579
 with their friend

00:44:05.579 --> 00:44:06.059
 and they see

00:44:06.059 --> 00:44:06.620
 their name

00:44:06.620 --> 00:44:07.220
 on there

00:44:07.220 --> 00:44:07.940
 and they go

00:44:07.940 --> 00:44:08.800
 is that my name?

00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:11.019
 And the guy

00:44:11.019 --> 00:44:11.340
 goes,

00:44:11.460 --> 00:44:11.660
 yeah,

00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:13.260
 I've been praying

00:44:13.260 --> 00:44:13.720
 for you

00:44:13.720 --> 00:44:15.820
 for two years.

00:44:17.380 --> 00:44:18.280
 I'm going to pray

00:44:18.280 --> 00:44:18.880
 for us

00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:20.340
 and Katie's

00:44:20.340 --> 00:44:21.060
 going to come up

00:44:21.060 --> 00:44:23.080
 and in this process

00:44:23.080 --> 00:44:24.000
 I want you

00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:24.920
 to think about

00:44:24.920 --> 00:44:26.560
 why God

00:44:26.560 --> 00:44:27.519
 has you

00:44:27.519 --> 00:44:28.160
 here

00:44:28.160 --> 00:44:29.400
 at this church.

00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:31.980
 We talk about

00:44:31.980 --> 00:44:32.640
 it all the time.

00:44:33.519 --> 00:44:34.080
 We talk about

00:44:34.080 --> 00:44:34.660
 if you're here

00:44:34.660 --> 00:44:35.260
 just to

00:44:35.260 --> 00:44:36.800
 get your needs

00:44:36.800 --> 00:44:37.120
 met

00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:37.420
 and not

00:44:37.420 --> 00:44:37.859
 to be a part

00:44:37.859 --> 00:44:38.319
 of the journey.

00:44:39.480 --> 00:44:40.179
 There's probably

00:44:40.179 --> 00:44:40.859
 other churches

00:44:40.859 --> 00:44:41.139
 that you're

00:44:41.139 --> 00:44:41.319
 going to be

00:44:41.319 --> 00:44:41.900
 more comfortable

00:44:41.900 --> 00:44:42.279
 at

00:44:42.279 --> 00:44:44.299
 because we

00:44:44.299 --> 00:44:45.139
 want the

00:44:45.139 --> 00:44:45.500
 people,

00:44:46.199 --> 00:44:46.679
 the family

00:44:46.679 --> 00:44:47.319
 members of

00:44:47.319 --> 00:44:47.880
 Watermark

00:44:47.880 --> 00:44:49.339
 to know

00:44:49.339 --> 00:44:49.779
 that the

00:44:49.779 --> 00:44:50.159
 journey

00:44:50.159 --> 00:44:52.079
 is all about

00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:52.779
 being used

00:44:52.779 --> 00:44:53.699
 by our

00:44:53.699 --> 00:44:54.039
 shepherd

00:44:54.039 --> 00:44:56.099
 to pray

00:44:56.099 --> 00:44:57.420
 and to reach

00:44:57.420 --> 00:44:58.019
 out for people

00:44:58.019 --> 00:44:58.819
 around us.

00:45:00.339 --> 00:45:00.719
 And so as

00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:01.559
 Katie comes

00:45:01.559 --> 00:45:03.299
 we would ask

00:45:03.299 --> 00:45:03.799
 for you

00:45:03.799 --> 00:45:04.799
 in an attitude

00:45:04.799 --> 00:45:05.400
 of prayer

00:45:05.400 --> 00:45:06.219
 and silence

00:45:06.219 --> 00:45:07.059
 if God

00:45:07.059 --> 00:45:07.500
 puts people

00:45:07.500 --> 00:45:07.779
 on your

00:45:07.779 --> 00:45:08.119
 heart

00:45:08.119 --> 00:45:09.779
 to come

00:45:09.779 --> 00:45:10.019
 up

00:45:10.019 --> 00:45:10.739
 the elders

00:45:10.739 --> 00:45:10.919
 are going

00:45:10.919 --> 00:45:11.159
 to bring

00:45:11.159 --> 00:45:11.519
 it down

00:45:11.519 --> 00:45:11.799
 here

00:45:11.799 --> 00:45:12.119
 right in

00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:12.379
 front

00:45:12.379 --> 00:45:12.939
 we'll have

00:45:12.939 --> 00:45:13.439
 some markers

00:45:13.439 --> 00:45:14.599
 and we

00:45:14.599 --> 00:45:14.919
 would ask

00:45:14.919 --> 00:45:15.099
 for you

00:45:15.099 --> 00:45:15.559
 just to sign

00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:16.039
 their name

00:45:16.039 --> 00:45:18.000
 and that's

00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:18.239
 a step

00:45:18.239 --> 00:45:18.779
 of faith

00:45:18.779 --> 00:45:19.480
 for us

00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:20.939
 and what

00:45:20.939 --> 00:45:21.219
 it means

00:45:21.219 --> 00:45:21.579
 is you're

00:45:21.579 --> 00:45:21.859
 committed

00:45:21.859 --> 00:45:22.500
 to pray

00:45:22.500 --> 00:45:23.000
 for those

00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:23.359
 people

00:45:23.359 --> 00:45:25.199
 that you're

00:45:25.199 --> 00:45:25.459
 committed

00:45:25.459 --> 00:45:26.059
 to be a

00:45:26.059 --> 00:45:26.319
 shepherd

00:45:26.319 --> 00:45:27.379
 to those

00:45:27.379 --> 00:45:27.739
 people

00:45:27.739 --> 00:45:29.299
 you're

00:45:29.299 --> 00:45:29.539
 committed

00:45:29.539 --> 00:45:30.359
 to go

00:45:30.359 --> 00:45:30.759
 out to

00:45:30.759 --> 00:45:30.959
 those

00:45:30.959 --> 00:45:31.299
 people

00:45:31.300 --> 00:45:32.560
 and to

00:45:32.560 --> 00:45:32.880
 show them

00:45:32.880 --> 00:45:33.240
 Jesus

00:45:33.240 --> 00:45:35.880
 and allow

00:45:35.880 --> 00:45:36.420
 the good

00:45:36.420 --> 00:45:36.760
 shepherd

00:45:36.760 --> 00:45:38.280
 to bring

00:45:38.280 --> 00:45:38.620
 them back

00:45:38.620 --> 00:45:38.860
 to the

00:45:38.860 --> 00:45:39.240
 family

00:45:39.240 --> 00:45:41.039

00:45:41.940 --> 00:45:43.620
 shepherds

00:45:43.620 --> 00:45:44.280
 people who

00:45:44.280 --> 00:45:44.700
 search for

00:45:44.700 --> 00:45:45.019
 lost

00:45:45.019 --> 00:45:45.420
 things

00:45:45.420 --> 00:45:46.720
 celebrations

00:45:46.720 --> 00:45:47.420
 what we

00:45:47.420 --> 00:45:47.640
 do

00:45:47.640 --> 00:45:47.880
 when we

00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:48.140
 find

00:45:48.140 --> 00:45:48.420
 lost

00:45:48.420 --> 00:45:48.840
 things

00:45:54.180 --> 00:45:55.220

00:45:55.220 --> 00:45:55.580
 in our

00:45:55.580 --> 00:45:56.000
 life

00:45:56.000 --> 00:45:57.780
 as we

00:45:57.780 --> 00:45:58.059
 look at

00:45:58.059 --> 00:45:58.280
 these

00:45:58.280 --> 00:45:58.840
 stories

00:45:58.840 --> 00:45:59.300
 and we

00:45:59.300 --> 00:45:59.679
 consider

00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:00.079
 what you

00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:00.519
 did for

00:46:00.519 --> 00:46:00.940
 us

00:46:00.940 --> 00:46:03.159
 I can't

00:46:03.159 --> 00:46:03.619
 even begin

00:46:03.619 --> 00:46:04.219
 to imagine

00:46:04.219 --> 00:46:04.820
 or comprehend

00:46:04.820 --> 00:46:05.340
 all that

00:46:05.340 --> 00:46:05.820

00:46:07.539 --> 00:46:07.840

00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:09.380
 when I say

00:46:09.380 --> 00:46:09.780
 the words

00:46:09.780 --> 00:46:10.139
 that you

00:46:10.139 --> 00:46:10.719
 gave up

00:46:10.719 --> 00:46:11.159
 everything

00:46:11.159 --> 00:46:13.039
 to bring

 pray for

00:47:22.500 --> 00:47:22.860
 some of

00:47:22.860 --> 00:47:23.160
 us in

00:47:23.160 --> 00:47:23.519
 here right

00:47:23.519 --> 00:47:23.840
 now who

00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:24.240
 hear this

00:47:24.240 --> 00:47:24.620
 message

00:47:24.620 --> 00:47:27.099
 and they

00:47:27.099 --> 00:47:27.620
 realize that

00:47:27.620 --> 00:47:27.920
 they're the

00:47:27.920 --> 00:47:28.599
 lost sheep

00:47:28.599 --> 00:47:31.380
 and if they're

00:47:31.380 --> 00:47:31.820
 like me

00:47:31.820 --> 00:47:32.360
 they're busy

00:47:32.360 --> 00:47:33.220
 trying to

00:47:33.220 --> 00:47:34.920
 get in shape

00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:35.539
 and get their

00:47:35.539 --> 00:47:36.059
 life together

00:47:36.059 --> 00:47:37.400
 before they

00:47:37.400 --> 00:47:38.000
 are presentable

00:47:38.000 --> 00:47:38.400
 to you

00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:38.820
 and Lord I

00:47:38.820 --> 00:47:39.300
 pray that

00:47:39.300 --> 00:47:39.740
 through these

00:47:39.740 --> 00:47:40.200
 words and

00:47:40.200 --> 00:47:40.440
 through the

00:47:40.440 --> 00:47:40.700
 message

00:47:40.700 --> 00:47:40.940
 they'd

00:47:40.940 --> 00:47:41.420
 realize that

00:47:41.420 --> 00:47:41.620
 there's

00:47:41.620 --> 00:47:42.019
 nothing they

00:47:42.019 --> 00:47:42.539
 can do

00:47:42.539 --> 00:47:44.779
 to make

00:47:44.779 --> 00:47:45.079
 them more

00:47:45.079 --> 00:47:45.539
 beautiful

00:47:45.539 --> 00:47:46.940
 and expensive

00:47:46.940 --> 00:47:47.579
 and costly

00:47:47.579 --> 00:47:48.840
 to you

00:47:48.840 --> 00:47:51.219
 because you've

00:47:51.219 --> 00:47:51.619
 already done

00:47:51.619 --> 00:47:52.059
 that when you

00:47:52.059 --> 00:47:52.360
 gave your

00:47:52.360 --> 00:47:52.800
 son Jesus

00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:53.480
 for them

00:47:53.480 --> 00:47:55.619
 so Lord I

00:47:55.619 --> 00:47:56.139
 pray for any

00:47:56.139 --> 00:47:56.579
 of us here

00:47:56.579 --> 00:47:56.980
 who are

00:47:56.980 --> 00:47:57.440
 struggling

00:47:57.440 --> 00:47:59.420
 to get our

00:47:59.420 --> 00:47:59.960
 life right

00:47:59.960 --> 00:48:00.460
 and perfect

00:48:00.460 --> 00:48:00.980
 so that we

00:48:00.980 --> 00:48:01.420
 can please

00:48:01.420 --> 00:48:01.739
 you

00:48:01.739 --> 00:48:03.619
 that we

00:48:03.619 --> 00:48:04.079
 come before

00:48:04.079 --> 00:48:04.380
 you this

00:48:04.380 --> 00:48:04.820

00:48:05.239 --> 00:48:05.679

00:48:05.679 --> 00:48:07.759
 and realize

00:48:07.759 --> 00:48:08.219
 as a good

00:48:08.219 --> 00:48:08.719
 shepherd that

00:48:08.719 --> 00:48:09.279

00:48:09.279 --> 00:48:09.900
 us and

00:48:09.900 --> 00:48:10.400
 you've got

00:48:10.400 --> 00:48:11.579
 us and

00:48:11.579 --> 00:48:11.920
 you've put

00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:12.179
 us on

00:48:12.179 --> 00:48:12.679
 your shoulders

00:48:12.679 --> 00:48:13.419
 and you've

00:48:13.419 --> 00:48:14.139
 promised to

00:48:14.139 --> 00:48:15.119
 never let

00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:15.839
 go of us

00:48:15.839 --> 00:48:17.299
 and to

00:48:17.299 --> 00:48:17.599

00:48:20.759 --> 00:48:21.679
 before you

 and we pray

00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:22.799
 also for this

00:48:22.799 --> 00:48:23.139
 city of

00:48:23.139 --> 00:48:23.679
 Hong Kong

00:48:23.679 --> 00:48:26.139

00:48:26.139 --> 00:48:26.940
 amazing city

00:48:26.940 --> 00:48:30.480
 where 95%

00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:30.960
 of the people

00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:33.000
 walk in

00:48:33.000 --> 00:48:33.419
 darkness

00:48:33.419 --> 00:48:35.799
 who are

00:48:35.799 --> 00:48:36.579
 busy chewing

00:48:36.579 --> 00:48:38.440
 whatever they

00:48:38.440 --> 00:48:39.099
 feel like is

00:48:39.099 --> 00:48:39.419
 going to give

00:48:39.419 --> 00:48:40.299
 them satisfaction

00:48:40.299 --> 00:48:40.839
 and hope

00:48:40.839 --> 00:48:41.279

00:48:42.360 --> 00:48:42.640
 go on

00:48:42.640 --> 00:48:42.820
 this

00:48:42.820 --> 00:48:43.180
 journey

00:48:43.180 --> 00:48:45.560
 where we

00:48:45.560 --> 00:48:45.900
 pray that

00:48:45.900 --> 00:48:46.140
 you would

00:48:46.140 --> 00:48:46.480
 use us

00:48:46.480 --> 00:48:46.740
 as a

00:48:46.740 --> 00:48:47.060
 church

00:48:47.060 --> 00:48:47.380
 to be

00:48:47.380 --> 00:48:47.740
 beside

00:48:47.740 --> 00:48:47.960
 them

00:48:47.960 --> 00:48:48.240
 when they

00:48:48.240 --> 00:48:48.700
 wake up

00:48:48.700 --> 00:48:48.940
 and they

00:48:48.940 --> 00:48:49.240
 realize

00:48:49.240 --> 00:48:49.519
 that they're

00:48:49.519 --> 00:48:50.040
 lost

00:48:50.040 --> 00:48:52.080
 that you

00:48:52.080 --> 00:48:52.480
 would use

00:48:52.480 --> 00:48:52.880
 us as

00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:53.380
 hands and

00:48:53.380 --> 00:48:53.680
 feet

00:48:53.680 --> 00:48:54.380
 and money

00:48:54.380 --> 00:48:54.900
 and whatever

00:48:54.900 --> 00:48:55.500
 else that we

00:48:55.500 --> 00:48:56.240
 have as your

00:48:56.240 --> 00:48:56.760
 stewards

00:48:56.760 --> 00:48:58.300
 to bring them

00:48:58.300 --> 00:48:58.700
 back to your

00:48:58.700 --> 00:48:59.140
 family

00:48:59.140 --> 00:49:01.340
 so Lord we

00:49:01.340 --> 00:49:01.960
 dedicate these

00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:02.720
 names on this

00:49:02.720 --> 00:49:03.220
 stretch right

00:49:03.220 --> 00:49:03.540
 now

00:49:03.540 --> 00:49:05.120
 and we pray

00:49:05.120 --> 00:49:05.360
 that you

00:49:05.360 --> 00:49:05.800
 would change

00:49:05.800 --> 00:49:06.500
 their lives

00:49:06.500 --> 00:49:08.360
 we know

00:49:08.360 --> 00:49:08.920
 that repentance

00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:09.619
 is being

00:49:09.619 --> 00:49:10.300
 found by

00:49:10.300 --> 00:49:10.739
 you

00:49:10.739 --> 00:49:12.980
 and them

00:49:12.980 --> 00:49:13.739
 accepting it

00:49:13.739 --> 00:49:15.659
 and so we

00:49:15.659 --> 00:49:16.219
 pray for these

00:49:16.219 --> 00:49:16.659
 hundreds of

00:49:16.659 --> 00:49:17.280
 people Lord

00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:18.900
 that you

00:49:18.900 --> 00:49:19.280
 would do a

00:49:19.280 --> 00:49:19.760
 mighty work

00:49:19.760 --> 00:49:19.960
 in their

00:49:19.960 --> 00:49:20.360
 life

00:49:20.360 --> 00:49:22.320
 we love

00:49:22.320 --> 00:49:22.579
 you

00:49:22.579 --> 00:49:24.079
 we pray

00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:24.380
 these things

00:49:24.380 --> 00:49:24.539
 in your

00:49:24.539 --> 00:49:24.900
 son Jesus

00:49:24.900 --> 00:49:25.300

00:49:33.179 --> 00:49:34.539
 and precious

00:49:34.539 --> 00:49:36.340
 to God

00:49:36.340 --> 00:49:36.820
 the creator

00:49:36.820 --> 00:49:37.179
 of all

00:49:37.179 --> 00:49:37.679
 universe

00:49:37.679 --> 00:49:39.280

00:49:39.820 --> 00:49:40.920
 my prayer

00:49:40.920 --> 00:49:41.400
 is that you

00:49:41.400 --> 00:49:41.739

00:49:43.480 --> 00:49:44.059
 God sees

00:49:44.059 --> 00:49:44.300
 you

00:49:44.300 --> 00:49:46.019
 that's how

00:49:46.019 --> 00:49:46.280

00:50:17.480 --> 00:50:17.619
 people

00:50:17.619 --> 00:50:17.820
 have said

00:50:17.820 --> 00:50:18.059
 they go

00:50:18.059 --> 00:50:18.280
 on the

00:50:18.280 --> 00:50:18.539
 website

00:50:18.539 --> 00:50:18.880
 they don't

00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:19.079
 know

00:50:19.079 --> 00:50:19.460
 where we

00:50:19.460 --> 00:50:19.740
 meet

00:50:19.740 --> 00:50:20.380
 it's

00:50:20.380 --> 00:50:20.559
 in the

00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:20.720
 big

00:50:20.720 --> 00:50:21.099
 banner

00:50:21.099 --> 00:50:21.740
 always

00:50:21.740 --> 00:50:21.980
 in the

00:50:21.980 --> 00:50:22.200
 center

00:50:22.200 --> 00:50:22.340
 it

00:50:22.340 --> 00:50:22.660
 flashes

00:50:22.660 --> 00:50:22.960
 sometimes

00:50:22.960 --> 00:50:23.160
 there's

00:50:23.160 --> 00:50:23.300
 two

00:50:23.300 --> 00:50:23.559
 banners

00:50:23.559 --> 00:50:23.820
 sometimes

00:50:23.820 --> 00:50:24.059
 there's

00:50:24.059 --> 00:50:24.260
 three

00:50:24.260 --> 00:50:24.619
 but it's

00:50:24.619 --> 00:50:24.840
 always

00:50:24.840 --> 00:50:25.160
 there

00:50:25.160 --> 00:50:25.700
 we'll

00:50:25.700 --> 00:50:25.860
 tell

00:50:25.860 --> 00:50:26.160
 where we

00:50:26.160 --> 00:50:26.440
 meet

00:50:26.440 --> 00:50:27.220
 and on

00:50:27.220 --> 00:50:27.780
 the top

00:50:27.780 --> 00:50:28.360
 right hand

00:50:28.360 --> 00:50:28.820
 corner

00:50:28.820 --> 00:50:29.660
 there's

00:50:29.660 --> 00:50:30.019
 always

00:50:30.019 --> 00:50:30.579
 where we

00:50:30.579 --> 00:50:30.840
 meet

00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:31.220
 also

00:50:31.220 --> 00:50:31.940
 and so

00:50:31.940 --> 00:50:32.180
 God

00:50:32.180 --> 00:50:32.579
 has us

00:50:32.579 --> 00:50:32.940
 wandering

00:50:32.940 --> 00:50:33.260
 around

00:50:33.260 --> 00:50:33.559
 for a

00:50:33.559 --> 00:50:33.820
 while

00:50:33.820 --> 00:50:34.660
 which

00:50:34.660 --> 00:50:35.760
 seems

00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:35.940
 like

00:50:35.940 --> 00:50:36.140
 that's

00:50:36.140 --> 00:50:36.240
 what

00:50:36.240 --> 00:50:36.519
 life

00:50:36.519 --> 00:50:36.660
 is

00:50:36.660 --> 00:50:36.880
 like

00:50:36.880 --> 00:50:37.019
 in

00:50:37.019 --> 00:50:37.200
 Hong

00:50:37.200 --> 00:50:37.400
 Kong

00:50:37.400 --> 00:50:37.640
 isn't

00:50:37.640 --> 00:50:37.800
 it

00:50:37.800 --> 00:50:38.260
 so

00:50:38.260 --> 00:50:38.539
 hopefully

00:50:38.539 --> 00:50:38.740
 we

00:50:38.740 --> 00:50:38.860
 will

00:50:38.860 --> 00:50:39.079
 see

00:50:39.079 --> 00:50:39.220
 you

00:50:39.220 --> 00:50:39.539

00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:42.780
 we're

00:50:42.780 --> 00:50:43.119
 going

00:50:43.119 --> 00:50:43.300
 into

00:50:50.380 --> 00:50:50.640
 to

00:50:50.640 --> 00:50:51.160
 become

00:50:51.160 --> 00:50:52.500
 enter

00:50:52.500 --> 00:50:52.700
 into

00:50:52.700 --> 00:50:52.900
 that

00:50:52.900 --> 00:50:53.260
 class

00:50:53.260 --> 00:50:53.460
 and be

00:50:53.460 --> 00:50:53.700
 a part

00:50:53.700 --> 00:50:53.920
 of that

 hey

00:50:54.880 --> 00:50:55.160

00:50:55.160 --> 00:50:57.300
 and so

00:50:57.300 --> 00:50:57.660
 there's

00:50:57.660 --> 00:50:57.980
 a sign

00:50:57.980 --> 00:50:58.200
 up on

00:50:58.200 --> 00:50:58.539
 the table

00:50:58.539 --> 00:50:58.900

00:51:00.720 --> 00:51:01.140
 baptism

00:51:01.140 --> 00:51:01.720
 class

00:51:01.720 --> 00:51:02.720
 and also

00:51:02.720 --> 00:51:03.820
 we don't

00:51:03.820 --> 00:51:04.360
 pass around

00:51:04.360 --> 00:51:04.800
 offerings

00:51:04.800 --> 00:51:05.039
 here

00:51:05.039 --> 00:51:05.340
 you probably

00:51:05.340 --> 00:51:05.480
 think

00:51:05.480 --> 00:51:05.599
 it's

00:51:05.599 --> 00:51:05.740
 kind

00:51:05.740 --> 00:51:05.820
 of

00:51:05.820 --> 00:51:06.039
 weird

00:51:06.039 --> 00:51:06.160
 and

00:51:06.160 --> 00:51:06.240
 we

00:51:06.240 --> 00:51:06.340
 don't

00:51:06.340 --> 00:51:06.440
 even

00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:06.539
 have

00:51:06.539 --> 00:51:06.680
 the

00:51:06.680 --> 00:51:07.240
 kiosk

00:51:07.240 --> 00:51:07.360
 that

00:51:07.360 --> 00:51:07.460
 we

00:51:07.460 --> 00:51:07.700
 normally

00:51:07.700 --> 00:51:07.920
 have

00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:08.039
 at

00:51:08.039 --> 00:51:08.519
 cyberport

00:51:08.519 --> 00:51:09.380
 but

00:51:09.380 --> 00:51:09.980
 we

00:51:09.980 --> 00:51:10.320
 do

00:51:10.320 --> 00:51:10.960
 feel

00:51:10.960 --> 00:51:11.240
 like

00:51:11.240 --> 00:51:11.440
 that

00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:13.400
 what

00:51:13.400 --> 00:51:13.760
 you

00:51:13.760 --> 00:51:14.519
 give

00:51:14.519 --> 00:51:14.640
 to

00:51:14.640 --> 00:51:14.760
 the

00:51:14.760 --> 00:51:14.920
 Lord

00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:15.200
 as an

00:51:15.200 --> 00:51:15.519
 offering

00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:16.119
 is

00:51:16.119 --> 00:51:16.300
 an

00:51:16.300 --> 00:51:16.680
 indication

00:51:16.680 --> 00:51:16.960
 of

00:51:16.960 --> 00:51:17.079
 your

00:51:17.079 --> 00:51:17.539
 understanding

00:51:17.539 --> 00:51:18.519
 of

00:51:18.519 --> 00:51:19.099
 what

00:51:19.099 --> 00:51:19.340
 he's

00:51:19.340 --> 00:51:19.519
 done

00:51:19.519 --> 00:51:19.659
 in

00:51:19.659 --> 00:51:19.800
 your

00:51:19.800 --> 00:51:20.220
 life

00:51:20.220 --> 00:51:20.480
 and so

00:51:20.480 --> 00:51:20.619
 we

00:51:20.619 --> 00:51:20.760
 would

00:51:20.760 --> 00:51:21.099
 ask

00:51:21.099 --> 00:51:21.280
 for

00:51:21.280 --> 00:51:21.420
 you

00:51:21.420 --> 00:51:21.599
 as

00:51:21.599 --> 00:51:21.740
 you

00:51:21.740 --> 00:51:22.460
 contemplate

00:51:22.460 --> 00:51:23.320
 how

00:51:23.320 --> 00:51:23.700
 Christ

00:51:23.700 --> 00:51:23.840
 has

00:51:23.840 --> 00:51:24.059
 brought

00:51:24.059 --> 00:51:24.220
 you

00:51:24.220 --> 00:51:24.539

00:51:24.539 --> 00:51:24.680
 and

00:51:24.680 --> 00:51:24.800
 what

00:51:24.800 --> 00:51:24.940
 that

00:51:24.940 --> 00:51:25.180
 means

00:51:25.180 --> 00:51:25.360
 to

00:51:25.360 --> 00:51:25.599
 you

00:51:25.599 --> 00:51:26.119
 that

00:51:26.119 --> 00:51:26.260
 you

00:51:26.260 --> 00:51:26.400
 would

00:51:26.400 --> 00:51:26.639
 give

00:51:27.940 --> 00:51:28.159
 given

00:51:28.159 --> 00:51:28.420

00:51:28.420 --> 00:51:28.980

00:51:28.980 --> 00:51:29.780

00:51:29.780 --> 00:51:29.940
