WEBVTT

00:00:00.100 --> 00:00:01.780
 Well, begin our worship this evening.

00:00:01.919 --> 00:00:05.919
 We're going to sing to God's praise in Psalm 116,

00:00:06.620 --> 00:00:10.779
 the Scottish Psalter version on page 395 of the Psalm books.

00:00:11.779 --> 00:00:14.939
 Psalm 116, page 395.

00:00:17.339 --> 00:00:19.379
 We're going to sing from the beginning of the Psalm

00:00:19.379 --> 00:00:20.920
 down to the verse marked eight.

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.800
 I love the Lord because my voice and prayers he did hear.

00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:28.500
 I, while I live, will call on him who bowed to me his ear.

00:00:28.500 --> 00:00:32.359
 Of death the chords and sorrows did about me compass round.

00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:36.460
 The pains of hell took hold on me, I grief and trouble found.

00:00:36.539 --> 00:00:39.840
 We'll sing from verse one to verse eight to God's praise

00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:41.079
 and we stand to sing.

00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:54.340
 I love the Lord because my voice

00:00:54.340 --> 00:01:01.720
 and where she did hear.

00:01:01.720 --> 00:01:19.020
 My wife, I live with all of him who bowed to me his ear.

00:01:19.019 --> 00:01:36.019
 Of death the chords and sorrows did about me compass round.

00:01:36.019 --> 00:01:53.019
 The pains of hell took hold on me, I grief and trouble found.

00:01:53.019 --> 00:02:03.019
 Upon the name of God the Lord.

00:02:03.019 --> 00:02:12.019
 Then did I call and say,

00:02:12.020 --> 00:02:14.020
 He delivered the Lord.

00:02:14.020 --> 00:02:18.020
 He delivered the Lord.

00:02:18.020 --> 00:02:22.020
 My soul, O Lord.

00:02:22.020 --> 00:02:29.020
 I do the humbling praise.

00:02:29.020 --> 00:02:39.020
 God merciful and righteousness.

00:02:39.020 --> 00:02:47.020
 He gracious is our Lord.

00:02:47.020 --> 00:02:57.020
 God merciful and sorrows did about me, I was brought home.

00:02:57.020 --> 00:03:02.020
 He did be held upon.

00:03:02.020 --> 00:03:04.020
 God merciful and sorrows did about me, I was brought home.

00:03:04.020 --> 00:03:17.020
 He sang to me, I was brought home to God.

00:03:17.020 --> 00:03:23.460
 In thy quiet rest

00:03:23.460 --> 00:03:27.580
 For God's below

00:03:27.580 --> 00:03:33.060
 The Lord to thee

00:03:33.060 --> 00:03:40.820
 His bounty hath expressed

00:03:40.819 --> 00:03:46.579
 For my distress

00:03:46.579 --> 00:03:50.859
 And soul from death

00:03:50.859 --> 00:03:57.819
 Delivered caused by thee

00:03:58.459 --> 00:04:06.060
 Thou gives my pouring eyes

00:04:06.060 --> 00:04:10.900
 From tears, my feet

00:04:10.900 --> 00:04:14.900
 Of falling free

00:04:14.900 --> 00:04:22.980
 We'll come to God in prayer.

00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:23.759
 Let us pray.

00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:32.579
 Our gracious Father in heaven,

00:04:32.699 --> 00:04:35.439
 as we come to offer up our praise

00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:37.120
 to you and you this evening,

00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:38.500
 we thank you for the words

00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:39.540
 which we have shared

00:04:39.540 --> 00:04:41.540
 in praise to you

00:04:41.540 --> 00:04:42.879
 that we can come

00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:45.259
 echoing the words of the psalmist

00:04:45.259 --> 00:04:46.360
 that we can love you

00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:47.620
 because you have heard

00:04:47.620 --> 00:04:49.839
 our voice and our prayer.

00:04:50.420 --> 00:04:51.399
 And we thank you

00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:53.079
 that your promise is

00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:55.079
 that you will always hear your people,

00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:57.139
 that your ear is towards

00:04:57.139 --> 00:04:59.220
 all who call upon you.

00:04:59.939 --> 00:05:00.699
 And we thank you

00:05:00.699 --> 00:05:03.000
 that there is such a great privilege

00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:03.759
 in prayer,

00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:05.740
 such a blessing to us

00:05:05.740 --> 00:05:07.680
 to know that in our needs

00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:09.220
 and in our helplessness

00:05:09.220 --> 00:05:10.699
 that you are a God

00:05:10.699 --> 00:05:11.699
 who hears

00:05:11.699 --> 00:05:14.139
 and is always there for us.

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:15.439
 We thank you

00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.040
 that as we look through the psalms

00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:19.259
 we see the great experience

00:05:19.259 --> 00:05:21.439
 of the variety of psalmists

00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:22.180
 and the positions

00:05:22.180 --> 00:05:23.560
 and situations

00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:25.259
 that they found themselves in.

00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:27.100
 And so often, Lord,

00:05:27.220 --> 00:05:30.000
 we recognize ourselves in them,

00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.360
 whether it's going astray

00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:33.339
 and away from you,

00:05:33.860 --> 00:05:34.899
 whether it's in times

00:05:34.899 --> 00:05:36.300
 of sorrow and distress,

00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:38.300
 whether it's in times

00:05:38.300 --> 00:05:39.180
 of questioning

00:05:39.180 --> 00:05:40.680
 and uncertainty,

00:05:41.500 --> 00:05:42.560
 or whether it's in times

00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:44.540
 of great rejoicing and praise.

00:05:45.139 --> 00:05:45.800
 We thank you

00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:46.939
 that our experiences

00:05:46.939 --> 00:05:47.699
 are echoed

00:05:47.699 --> 00:05:49.160
 in these words so often.

00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:51.300
 And we pray tonight, Lord,

00:05:51.379 --> 00:05:52.399
 that we will enter in

00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:54.100
 to these words

00:05:54.100 --> 00:05:55.720
 and to the experience of them,

00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:57.100
 that we will hear

00:05:57.100 --> 00:05:58.980
 your words speaking to us,

00:05:58.980 --> 00:06:00.400
 that you are the one

00:06:00.400 --> 00:06:02.319
 who is able to deliver us

00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:03.160
 and to give us

00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:06.180
 great rest for our soul.

00:06:06.860 --> 00:06:07.600
 We thank you

00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.319
 that there is that reminder

00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:10.340
 that we are a people

00:06:10.340 --> 00:06:11.900
 who are perishing,

00:06:12.640 --> 00:06:14.200
 for we are a sinful people.

00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:15.680
 We are living

00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:16.740
 in the midst

00:06:16.740 --> 00:06:17.960
 of a sinful world,

00:06:18.640 --> 00:06:20.060
 and our hearts are wicked

00:06:20.060 --> 00:06:21.460
 beyond all

00:06:21.460 --> 00:06:22.319
 that we could imagine.

00:06:23.220 --> 00:06:24.040
 But we thank you

00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:25.620
 that your word reminds us

00:06:25.620 --> 00:06:27.120
 that you have sent your son

00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:28.640
 into this world

00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:29.860
 because of our sin,

00:06:30.339 --> 00:06:31.240
 that he came

00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:32.159
 to save us

00:06:32.159 --> 00:06:33.099
 from our sin.

00:06:33.919 --> 00:06:34.879
 And we thank you

00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:35.479
 that your word

00:06:35.479 --> 00:06:36.860
 is a word of hope,

00:06:37.459 --> 00:06:38.419
 a word of hope

00:06:38.419 --> 00:06:40.199
 even in our most troubled times.

00:06:41.060 --> 00:06:41.560
 So we pray

00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:42.199
 that you will bless

00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:43.240
 your word to us

00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:44.300
 together this evening,

00:06:44.979 --> 00:06:46.479
 and indeed bless it to us

00:06:46.479 --> 00:06:48.099
 in this week ahead as well

00:06:48.099 --> 00:06:49.039
 as we look forward

00:06:49.039 --> 00:06:50.360
 with a sense

00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:51.339
 of anticipation

00:06:51.339 --> 00:06:53.939
 and prayerful preparations

00:06:53.939 --> 00:06:55.439
 as we will come,

00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:56.039
 God willing,

00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:57.819
 to prepare ourselves

00:06:57.819 --> 00:06:58.919
 for the Lord's Supper

00:06:58.919 --> 00:06:59.839
 and all being well

00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.439
 to partake in it

00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:02.779
 next week.

00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:04.319
 We thank you, Lord,

00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:05.439
 for these seasons

00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:07.079
 and for being able

00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:08.179
 to meet once again

00:07:08.179 --> 00:07:08.899
 in this way

00:07:08.899 --> 00:07:10.299
 after a period

00:07:10.299 --> 00:07:11.139
 when things have been

00:07:11.139 --> 00:07:11.979
 so different.

00:07:12.620 --> 00:07:13.259
 And we pray

00:07:13.259 --> 00:07:14.359
 that there will be

00:07:14.359 --> 00:07:15.839
 a sense of urgency

00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:16.519
 and longing

00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:17.979
 for us to meet

00:07:17.979 --> 00:07:18.359
 with you

00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:18.900
 in the midst

00:07:18.900 --> 00:07:19.860
 of your word

00:07:19.860 --> 00:07:20.620
 and sacrament.

00:07:21.580 --> 00:07:22.280
 And so we pray

00:07:22.280 --> 00:07:23.360
 that you will help us

00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:24.480
 to prepare our hearts

00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:24.980
 for it,

00:07:25.620 --> 00:07:26.960
 to prayerfully approach

00:07:26.960 --> 00:07:28.040
 each day of the week

00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:29.980
 and pray for the services

00:07:29.980 --> 00:07:31.040
 to take place.

00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:32.740
 Your word preached

00:07:32.740 --> 00:07:33.980
 and those who will preach,

00:07:34.699 --> 00:07:36.040
 preach your word to us

00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:37.939
 in our fellowship together.

00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.500
 And in your people's hearts,

00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:40.819
 Lord,

00:07:40.900 --> 00:07:42.699
 may you encourage us

00:07:42.699 --> 00:07:43.680
 and build us up.

00:07:44.460 --> 00:07:45.580
 May you draw people

00:07:45.580 --> 00:07:46.500
 to yourself.

00:07:47.220 --> 00:07:48.220
 May you help those

00:07:48.220 --> 00:07:48.900
 even now

00:07:48.900 --> 00:07:50.560
 who may be wondering

00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:51.840
 of what they should do

00:07:51.840 --> 00:07:53.520
 of coming to the Lord's table,

00:07:54.180 --> 00:07:55.060
 feeling unworthy,

00:07:55.980 --> 00:07:57.120
 feeling unprepared,

00:07:57.340 --> 00:07:58.800
 feeling undeserving

00:07:58.800 --> 00:07:59.980
 of the least

00:07:59.980 --> 00:08:00.940
 of your mercies.

00:08:01.580 --> 00:08:02.620
 But yet that's the way

00:08:02.620 --> 00:08:03.480
 we all come.

00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:04.840
 We recognize

00:08:04.840 --> 00:08:06.280
 we do not deserve

00:08:06.280 --> 00:08:07.540
 it in and of ourselves,

00:08:08.320 --> 00:08:08.940
 but that we are

00:08:08.940 --> 00:08:10.140
 to look to Jesus,

00:08:10.880 --> 00:08:12.760
 the one who took our place,

00:08:13.420 --> 00:08:15.120
 the one whose death

00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:17.200
 we come to remember,

00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:20.219
 the one who we can trust in,

00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:22.019
 the one who we can

00:08:22.019 --> 00:08:23.539
 put all our hope in,

00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:25.300
 for he has done

00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:27.099
 all that we could not.

00:08:27.779 --> 00:08:28.819
 And so we pray

00:08:28.819 --> 00:08:30.319
 that you will encourage us

00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:31.339
 all in our hearts

00:08:31.339 --> 00:08:33.259
 to hear and see

00:08:33.259 --> 00:08:35.720
 of the wonder of Jesus Christ,

00:08:36.299 --> 00:08:37.340
 the one who died

00:08:37.340 --> 00:08:38.279
 for our sins,

00:08:38.939 --> 00:08:40.299
 but greater than that,

00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:41.279
 who rose again,

00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:42.919
 and whoever lives

00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:44.059
 making intercession

00:08:44.059 --> 00:08:45.439
 for us even now

00:08:45.439 --> 00:08:46.360
 at the right hand

00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:47.439
 of God the Father.

00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:48.919
 So as we come

00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:49.600
 in our prayers,

00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:50.720
 we come in his name,

00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:52.279
 seeking your goodness

00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:53.620
 and mercy upon us

00:08:53.620 --> 00:08:55.819
 and seeking your blessing

00:08:55.819 --> 00:08:57.019
 on us as a church

00:08:57.019 --> 00:08:58.459
 and as a church

00:08:58.459 --> 00:08:59.419
 throughout the world,

00:08:59.500 --> 00:09:00.299
 as your people

00:09:00.299 --> 00:09:02.120
 gather in your name

00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:04.240
 throughout this day.

00:09:04.899 --> 00:09:05.819
 We pray, Lord,

00:09:05.899 --> 00:09:07.179
 that your kingdom

00:09:07.179 --> 00:09:08.379
 will be blessed,

00:09:08.379 --> 00:09:09.100
 that you will be

00:09:09.100 --> 00:09:10.899
 bringing many sinners

00:09:10.899 --> 00:09:11.939
 into repentance

00:09:11.939 --> 00:09:13.220
 and into salvation,

00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:15.120
 into your kingdom.

00:09:15.899 --> 00:09:16.720
 We pray, Lord,

00:09:16.779 --> 00:09:17.620
 that you will continue

00:09:17.620 --> 00:09:18.320
 to pour out

00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:19.600
 your blessing upon us

00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:20.840
 as a nation

00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:21.799
 at this time,

00:09:22.700 --> 00:09:24.220
 undeserving as we are,

00:09:24.779 --> 00:09:25.740
 yet still we see

00:09:25.740 --> 00:09:26.919
 your hand upon us.

00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:29.080
 We see your hand upon us

00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:29.759
 in teaching

00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:30.899
 and rebuking,

00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:33.039
 but we see your hand upon us

00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:34.779
 in encouragement as well,

00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:36.740
 that there are people

00:09:36.740 --> 00:09:38.720
 who are seeking after you,

00:09:39.220 --> 00:09:40.079
 that there are those

00:09:40.079 --> 00:09:40.779
 who in the midst

00:09:40.779 --> 00:09:42.819
 of some of the greatest turmoil

00:09:42.819 --> 00:09:44.379
 maybe we've ever experienced

00:09:44.379 --> 00:09:45.439
 in our own lives,

00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:47.120
 who are looking to you

00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:48.379
 and recognizing

00:09:48.379 --> 00:09:50.759
 how frail a people we are,

00:09:51.379 --> 00:09:53.000
 but how great a God you are.

00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:54.459
 And so we pray

00:09:54.459 --> 00:09:55.360
 that as you continue

00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:56.220
 to teach us

00:09:56.220 --> 00:09:57.500
 many hard lessons,

00:09:58.139 --> 00:09:59.199
 that we will recognize

00:09:59.199 --> 00:10:00.720
 your grace and your love

00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:02.299
 and your mercy towards us,

00:10:02.299 --> 00:10:04.379
 and that if we as a nation

00:10:04.379 --> 00:10:06.519
 would repent and turn

00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:08.719
 and seek you as our God

00:10:08.719 --> 00:10:09.679
 and as our Lord,

00:10:10.459 --> 00:10:12.019
 what a blessing that would be

00:10:12.019 --> 00:10:14.000
 and the blessing that would be ours

00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.279
 poured out from heaven.

00:10:15.959 --> 00:10:16.740
 So, Lord, we pray

00:10:16.740 --> 00:10:18.879
 that you will rule over us

00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:20.519
 in the midst of these days,

00:10:21.079 --> 00:10:21.879
 rule over those

00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:24.000
 who are our nation's rulers,

00:10:24.779 --> 00:10:25.779
 that they would recognize

00:10:25.779 --> 00:10:27.240
 that they must bow the knee

00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:28.059
 before you,

00:10:28.719 --> 00:10:30.479
 give wisdom and guidance

00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:31.680
 to all who would seek

00:10:31.680 --> 00:10:32.340
 to lead us

00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:34.500
 in every aspect of life,

00:10:35.139 --> 00:10:36.700
 be it in our governments,

00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:38.060
 in our councils,

00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:41.019
 in any line of work

00:10:41.019 --> 00:10:41.840
 where there are decisions

00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:42.879
 that affect us

00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:43.600
 as a nation

00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:44.560
 and as a people.

00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:46.200
 We pray, Lord,

00:10:46.300 --> 00:10:47.820
 for your mercy and grace

00:10:47.820 --> 00:10:49.480
 when we think of

00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:52.019
 the trying times

00:10:52.019 --> 00:10:53.700
 we face in terms of

00:10:53.700 --> 00:10:55.860
 financial crisis

00:10:55.860 --> 00:10:57.539
 and pressures upon people.

00:10:58.220 --> 00:10:58.980
 We pray, Lord,

00:10:58.980 --> 00:11:00.320
 that the hearts of those

00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:02.080
 who are so often greedy

00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:02.740
 for more,

00:11:03.379 --> 00:11:04.800
 although they have so much,

00:11:04.860 --> 00:11:05.840
 it's never enough

00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:07.100
 and no matter

00:11:07.100 --> 00:11:09.060
 the consequences of others,

00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:10.600
 they seem to just want more.

00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:11.960
 We pray, Lord,

00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:13.159
 that you will change

00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:14.460
 the hearts that are greedy

00:11:14.460 --> 00:11:18.240
 for financial gain

00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:19.100
 in this world

00:11:19.100 --> 00:11:20.879
 to hearts that are filled

00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:21.539
 with mercy,

00:11:22.220 --> 00:11:23.620
 hearts that will show favor

00:11:23.620 --> 00:11:24.279
 and help

00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:24.940
 and kindness

00:11:24.940 --> 00:11:26.060
 towards others.

00:11:26.800 --> 00:11:27.500
 We know, Lord,

00:11:27.500 --> 00:11:28.539
 we live in a world

00:11:28.539 --> 00:11:31.200
 where we so often hear it said,

00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:32.500
 the rich are getting richer

00:11:32.500 --> 00:11:34.000
 and the poor are getting poorer.

00:11:34.659 --> 00:11:35.539
 But we know that

00:11:35.539 --> 00:11:36.940
 to know Christ

00:11:36.940 --> 00:11:38.379
 and to have him

00:11:38.379 --> 00:11:40.159
 would be to make us rich

00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:41.480
 beyond all comparison.

00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:43.159
 So we pray for

00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:44.960
 rich and poor,

00:11:45.139 --> 00:11:45.980
 young and old,

00:11:46.419 --> 00:11:47.379
 everyone to come

00:11:47.379 --> 00:11:49.519
 to know and to understand

00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:50.919
 the love of Christ,

00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:52.820
 that love that is beyond

00:11:52.820 --> 00:11:53.980
 all comparison.

00:11:53.980 --> 00:11:55.779
 So we pray, Lord,

00:11:55.940 --> 00:11:57.420
 your mercy upon us

00:11:57.420 --> 00:11:58.159
 and we pray, Lord,

00:11:58.200 --> 00:11:59.480
 that you will go before us

00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:01.080
 in this week ahead

00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:03.080
 as well as we look forward

00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:05.220
 to the time of communion season

00:12:05.220 --> 00:12:05.860
 in our midst.

00:12:06.500 --> 00:12:07.620
 We pray your blessing

00:12:07.620 --> 00:12:08.899
 on all the services

00:12:08.899 --> 00:12:10.080
 that will take place

00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:11.720
 and upon every preacher

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:13.399
 who will minister in our midst.

00:12:13.680 --> 00:12:14.600
 May you help them

00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:15.899
 as they prepare

00:12:15.899 --> 00:12:16.860
 for the services

00:12:16.860 --> 00:12:18.200
 in these coming days.

00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:20.399
 We pray for each of them, Lord,

00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:21.940
 that you will bless them

00:12:21.940 --> 00:12:23.500
 and use them to your glory

00:12:23.500 --> 00:12:25.920
 and for our blessing here.

00:12:26.520 --> 00:12:27.520
 We pray for Reverend

00:12:27.520 --> 00:12:28.500
 Kenneth Ferguson

00:12:28.500 --> 00:12:31.020
 for the Thursday evening service.

00:12:31.140 --> 00:12:31.640
 We thank you

00:12:31.640 --> 00:12:33.560
 for his years of ministry

00:12:33.560 --> 00:12:34.200
 and his willingness

00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:36.440
 to serve in so many ways.

00:12:36.860 --> 00:12:37.760
 We pray that you will bless

00:12:37.760 --> 00:12:40.400
 that time around your word there.

00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:42.160
 We pray for Emma Critchie

00:12:42.160 --> 00:12:42.960
 and Paul Murray

00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:44.620
 as they come on the Friday evening.

00:12:45.260 --> 00:12:46.140
 May you bless them

00:12:46.140 --> 00:12:47.220
 and use them too.

00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:48.780
 We pray for Reverend

00:12:48.780 --> 00:12:49.640
 James McKeever

00:12:49.640 --> 00:12:51.160
 and Reverend Colin McLeod too

00:12:51.159 --> 00:12:52.480
 as they minister

00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:53.379
 over the weekend

00:12:53.379 --> 00:12:55.819
 and the sacrament

00:12:55.819 --> 00:12:57.059
 of the Lord's Supper.

00:12:57.519 --> 00:12:58.939
 May you bless them, Lord,

00:12:59.019 --> 00:13:00.000
 and encourage them.

00:13:00.620 --> 00:13:01.419
 And may we be ever

00:13:01.419 --> 00:13:03.019
 prayerful towards them.

00:13:03.539 --> 00:13:04.240
 We thank you

00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:06.100
 that even in this past week,

00:13:06.219 --> 00:13:06.919
 Mr. McKeever

00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:09.279
 has celebrated 35 years

00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:09.980
 in the ministry.

00:13:10.620 --> 00:13:11.839
 We pray you'll continue

00:13:11.839 --> 00:13:12.539
 to bless him

00:13:12.539 --> 00:13:13.740
 in his ministry here

00:13:13.740 --> 00:13:15.860
 and further afield as well.

00:13:16.459 --> 00:13:16.939
 Thanking you

00:13:16.939 --> 00:13:17.959
 for the congregations

00:13:17.959 --> 00:13:19.299
 he's been in in the past,

00:13:19.299 --> 00:13:20.979
 for East Kilbride

00:13:20.979 --> 00:13:22.679
 and for Point.

00:13:22.959 --> 00:13:25.259
 And we pray for the congregation

00:13:25.259 --> 00:13:26.199
 here as well,

00:13:26.259 --> 00:13:26.419
 Lord,

00:13:26.439 --> 00:13:27.620
 and his ministry here.

00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:29.459
 May you bless each one

00:13:29.459 --> 00:13:30.839
 and may you continue

00:13:30.839 --> 00:13:31.659
 to help us

00:13:31.659 --> 00:13:33.219
 to know your goodness

00:13:33.219 --> 00:13:33.819
 with us

00:13:33.819 --> 00:13:35.299
 all the days of our lives.

00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:36.620
 So we continue

00:13:36.620 --> 00:13:38.039
 to seek your face now

00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:39.179
 as we worship you

00:13:39.179 --> 00:13:41.039
 and as we turn to your word,

00:13:41.099 --> 00:13:42.519
 as we sing your praise.

00:13:43.059 --> 00:13:44.459
 May you draw near to us

00:13:44.460 --> 00:13:45.259
 as we seek

00:13:45.259 --> 00:13:46.900
 to draw near to you.

00:13:47.420 --> 00:13:48.879
 We ask all things,

00:13:49.420 --> 00:13:50.519
 confessing our sins

00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:51.639
 before you anew,

00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:53.300
 that we are a people

00:13:53.300 --> 00:13:54.540
 who fall short

00:13:54.540 --> 00:13:55.460
 of your glory,

00:13:56.019 --> 00:13:57.680
 who sin daily

00:13:57.680 --> 00:13:58.280
 in thought,

00:13:58.400 --> 00:13:58.700
 word,

00:13:58.800 --> 00:13:59.360
 and in deed.

00:13:59.940 --> 00:14:00.879
 But we thank you

00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:02.040
 that in Christ

00:14:02.040 --> 00:14:03.379
 there is rich forgiveness.

00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:04.759
 So we come

00:14:04.759 --> 00:14:05.920
 confessing anew

00:14:05.920 --> 00:14:07.500
 and looking to him,

00:14:08.040 --> 00:14:09.120
 asking for your mercy

00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:10.420
 upon us as a people,

00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:12.220
 that you'll go with us now.

00:14:12.220 --> 00:14:14.320
 We ask all in Jesus' name

00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:15.960
 and for his sake.

00:14:16.420 --> 00:14:16.860
 Amen.

00:14:20.820 --> 00:14:22.860
 We're going to sing again

00:14:22.860 --> 00:14:23.840
 to God's praise,

00:14:23.920 --> 00:14:25.980
 this time in Psalm 139

00:14:25.980 --> 00:14:29.100
 in the Scottish Psalter.

00:14:30.420 --> 00:14:33.740
 Psalm 139 on page 432.

00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:36.879
 We're going to sing

00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:37.879
 from verse 1

00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:39.180
 down to verse 10.

00:14:40.019 --> 00:14:40.460
 O Lord,

00:14:40.460 --> 00:14:41.920
 thou hast me searched

00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:42.399
 and known,

00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:43.079
 thou knowest

00:14:43.079 --> 00:14:44.019
 my sitting down

00:14:44.019 --> 00:14:45.000
 and rising up.

00:14:45.539 --> 00:14:46.479
 Yea, all my thoughts

00:14:46.479 --> 00:14:47.839
 afar to thee are known,

00:14:48.319 --> 00:14:49.000
 my footsteps

00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:50.219
 and my lying down

00:14:50.219 --> 00:14:51.719
 thou compassest always.

00:14:52.419 --> 00:14:54.059
 Thou also most entirely

00:14:54.059 --> 00:14:54.879
 art acquaint

00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:56.620
 with all my ways.

00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:57.099
 We'll sing

00:14:57.099 --> 00:14:58.439
 from verse 1 to 10

00:14:58.439 --> 00:14:59.839
 to God's praise

00:14:59.839 --> 00:15:01.219
 and we stand to sing.

00:15:01.219 --> 00:15:01.279
 Amen.

00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:07.500
 O Lord,

00:15:07.620 --> 00:15:11.219
 thou hast me searched,

00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:15.679
 and thus,

00:15:16.319 --> 00:15:17.019
anche onen of the nations

00:15:17.019 --> 00:15:17.799
 and endure his name

00:15:17.799 --> 00:15:19.779
 again.

00:15:19.819 --> 00:15:20.919
 I have come to autre

00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:24.279
 the star of 632.

00:15:24.339 --> 00:15:25.139
 If one of the nations

00:15:25.139 --> 00:15:25.959
 или reach,

00:15:25.959 --> 00:15:26.559
 or 100% of the nations

00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:27.500
 may have come to Thee

00:15:27.500 --> 00:15:28.719
 and above the nations

00:15:28.719 --> 00:15:30.740
 and where he hailed

00:15:30.740 --> 00:15:32.219
 of mine as I know.

00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:33.479
 I have come to say

00:15:33.479 --> 00:15:34.419
 though God isMI

00:15:34.419 --> 00:15:35.079
 above us will.

00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:39.080
 Our Lord

00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:42.080
 My footsteps

00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:47.080
 And my lying

00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:49.080
 God

00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:51.080
 Thou God

00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:55.080
 Passest always

00:15:55.080 --> 00:15:59.080
 Thou also

00:15:59.080 --> 00:16:01.080
 Holds

00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:03.080
 My entire

00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:05.080
 Yard

00:16:05.080 --> 00:16:07.080
 I'll wait

00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:11.080
 With all my

00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:13.080
 Ways

00:16:13.080 --> 00:16:15.080
 For in

00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:17.080
 My tongue

00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:19.080
 Before

00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:21.080
 I speak

00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:25.080
 Not any

00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:27.080
 Work

00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:29.080
 Can be

00:16:29.080 --> 00:16:31.080
 But

00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:33.080
 All

00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:35.080
 Together

00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:37.080
 O

00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:39.080
 Lord

00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:41.080
 It is

00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:43.080
 Well

00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:45.080
 Long to

00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:47.080
 Thee

00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:49.080
 Behind

00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:51.080
 Before

00:16:51.080 --> 00:16:53.080
 The

00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:55.080
 Past

00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:57.080
 We

00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.080
 And

00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:01.080
 And

00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:03.080
 Live

00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:05.079
 On

00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:07.079
 Thee

00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:09.079
 Thee

00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:11.079
 Thee

00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:13.079
 Thee

00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.079
 Thee

00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:17.079
 Thee

00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:19.079
 Thee

00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:21.079
 Thee

00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:23.079
 From

00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:25.079
 Thy

00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:27.079
 Sand

00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:31.079
 Thine

00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:32.079
 Thee

00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:33.079
 From

00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:35.079
 Thy

00:17:35.079 --> 00:17:36.079
 Thee

00:17:36.079 --> 00:17:37.079
 Thee

00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:39.079
 Thee

00:17:39.079 --> 00:17:41.079
 Thee

00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:43.079
 Thee

00:17:43.079 --> 00:17:45.079
 Thee

00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:47.079
 Thee

00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:56.079
 There is in hell I lie.

00:17:57.339 --> 00:18:06.139
 Take I the morning wings and dwell

00:18:06.139 --> 00:18:13.079
 in utmost parts of sea.

00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:22.759
 In heaven, Lord, shall thy hand be me,

00:18:23.059 --> 00:18:30.319
 thy right hand hold shall be.

00:18:35.859 --> 00:18:39.919
 If we could turn together now, we'll read in God's word

00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:43.980
 in the beginning of the Old Testament in the book of Genesis.

00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:47.519
 I'm reading in Genesis chapter 3.

00:18:51.500 --> 00:18:54.380
 I'm going to read the whole of this chapter.

00:18:54.519 --> 00:18:57.920
 Genesis chapter 3 and the whole of this chapter.

00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:03.580
 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field

00:19:03.580 --> 00:19:05.460
 that the Lord God had made.

00:19:06.420 --> 00:19:07.600
 He said to the woman,

00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:09.700
 Did God actually say,

00:19:10.500 --> 00:19:13.100
 You shall not eat of any tree in the garden?

00:19:14.140 --> 00:19:15.940
 And the woman said to the serpent,

00:19:16.320 --> 00:19:19.039
 We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden,

00:19:19.600 --> 00:19:20.519
 but God said,

00:19:20.860 --> 00:19:22.680
 You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree

00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:24.100
 that is in the midst of the garden,

00:19:24.099 --> 00:19:26.279
 neither shall you touch it,

00:19:26.619 --> 00:19:27.419
 lest you die.

00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:30.059
 But the serpent said to the woman,

00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:32.139
 You will not surely die,

00:19:32.839 --> 00:19:34.879
 for God knows that when you eat of it,

00:19:35.099 --> 00:19:36.359
 your eyes will be opened,

00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:38.399
 and you will be like God,

00:19:38.879 --> 00:19:40.539
 knowing good and evil.

00:19:41.659 --> 00:19:43.740
 So when the woman saw that the tree

00:19:43.740 --> 00:19:44.980
 was good for food,

00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:47.439
 and that it was a delight to the eyes,

00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:49.659
 and that the tree was to be desired

00:19:49.659 --> 00:19:50.740
 to make one wise,

00:19:50.740 --> 00:19:53.079
 she took out its fruit and ate.

00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:56.140
 And she also gave some to her husband,

00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:57.460
 who was with her,

00:19:57.960 --> 00:19:58.740
 and he ate.

00:19:59.779 --> 00:20:01.660
 And the eyes of both were opened,

00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:03.660
 and they knew that they were naked,

00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:06.220
 and they sewed fig leaves together

00:20:06.220 --> 00:20:08.120
 and made themselves loincloths.

00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:12.019
 And they heard the sound of the Lord God

00:20:12.019 --> 00:20:14.859
 walking in the garden in the cool of the day.

00:20:15.660 --> 00:20:17.740
 And the man and his wife hid themselves

00:20:17.740 --> 00:20:20.120
 from the presence of the Lord God

00:20:20.120 --> 00:20:22.140
 among the trees of the garden.

00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:25.740
 But the Lord God called to the man

00:20:25.740 --> 00:20:26.779
 and said to him,

00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:28.620
 Where are you?

00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:30.599
 And he said,

00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:32.900
 I heard the sound of you in the garden,

00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:33.799
 and I was afraid,

00:20:34.299 --> 00:20:35.359
 because I was naked,

00:20:35.900 --> 00:20:36.940
 and I hid myself.

00:20:38.120 --> 00:20:38.559
 He said,

00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:40.779
 Who told you that you were naked?

00:20:41.339 --> 00:20:42.680
 Have you eaten of the tree

00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:44.960
 of which I commanded you not to eat?

00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:47.019
 The man said,

00:20:47.340 --> 00:20:49.059
 The woman whom you gave to me

00:20:49.059 --> 00:20:50.160
 to be with me,

00:20:50.259 --> 00:20:51.740
 she gave me fruit of the tree,

00:20:51.819 --> 00:20:52.259
 and I ate.

00:20:53.360 --> 00:20:55.059
 Then the Lord said to the woman,

00:20:55.319 --> 00:20:57.380
 What is this that you have done?

00:20:58.259 --> 00:20:59.500
 The woman said,

00:21:00.019 --> 00:21:01.819
 The serpent deceived me,

00:21:02.299 --> 00:21:03.100
 and I ate.

00:21:04.180 --> 00:21:06.279
 The Lord God said to the serpent,

00:21:06.840 --> 00:21:08.299
 Because you have done this,

00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:10.980
 cursed are you above all livestock,

00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:13.400
 and above all beasts of the field.

00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:15.519
 On your belly you shall go,

00:21:16.060 --> 00:21:17.380
 and dust you shall eat

00:21:17.380 --> 00:21:18.780
 all the days of your life.

00:21:19.640 --> 00:21:21.940
 I will put enmity between you and the woman,

00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:25.580
 between your offspring and her offspring.

00:21:26.500 --> 00:21:28.440
 He shall bruise your head,

00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:31.080
 and you shall bruise his heel.

00:21:32.140 --> 00:21:33.720
 To the woman he said,

00:21:34.259 --> 00:21:36.400
 I will surely multiply your pain

00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:37.280
 and childbearing.

00:21:37.980 --> 00:21:40.040
 In pain you shall bring forth children.

00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:43.399
 Your desire shall be for your husband,

00:21:43.720 --> 00:21:45.680
 and he shall rule over you.

00:21:46.579 --> 00:21:47.799
 And to Adam he said,

00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:50.559
 Because you have listened to the voice of your wife,

00:21:50.619 --> 00:21:53.000
 and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you,

00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:54.879
 you shall not eat of it.

00:21:55.579 --> 00:21:57.539
 Cursed is the ground because of you.

00:21:58.220 --> 00:21:59.859
 In pain you shall eat of it

00:21:59.859 --> 00:22:01.779
 all the days of your life.

00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:05.779
 Thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you,

00:22:05.779 --> 00:22:08.680
 and you shall eat the plants of the field.

00:22:09.460 --> 00:22:12.160
 By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread,

00:22:12.599 --> 00:22:14.059
 till you return to the ground.

00:22:14.700 --> 00:22:16.119
 For out of it you were taken,

00:22:16.899 --> 00:22:18.019
 for you are dust,

00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:19.799
 and to dust you shall return.

00:22:20.940 --> 00:22:23.420
 The man called his wife's name Eve,

00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:25.700
 because she was the mother of all living.

00:22:26.399 --> 00:22:28.859
 And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife

00:22:28.859 --> 00:22:31.720
 garments of skins and clothed them.

00:22:31.720 --> 00:22:34.019
 And the Lord God said,

00:22:34.740 --> 00:22:37.680
 Behold, the man has become like one of us

00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:39.539
 in knowing good and evil.

00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:42.620
 Now lest he reach out his hand

00:22:42.620 --> 00:22:44.900
 and take also the tree of life

00:22:44.900 --> 00:22:46.120
 and eat and live forever.

00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:49.400
 Therefore the Lord God sent him out

00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:50.799
 from the garden of Eden

00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:53.519
 to work the ground from which he was taken.

00:22:54.339 --> 00:22:55.539
 He drove out the man,

00:22:56.180 --> 00:22:57.740
 and at the east of the garden of Eden

00:22:57.740 --> 00:22:59.059
 he placed the cherubim

00:22:59.059 --> 00:23:02.359
 and a flaming sword that turned every way

00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:05.460
 to guard the way to the tree of life.

00:23:06.339 --> 00:23:07.599
 So I want to make God bless

00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:10.000
 that reading from his word.

00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:12.799
 Before we turn back to that passage,

00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.500
 we'll again sing to God's praise this time

00:23:15.500 --> 00:23:19.059
 in the Singed Psalms version of Psalm 56.

00:23:20.539 --> 00:23:22.019
 Psalm 56.

00:23:23.019 --> 00:23:25.399
 We find this on page 73.

00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:29.040
 We're singing from verse 1 to verse 9.

00:23:30.300 --> 00:23:32.480
 Oh my God, show mercy to me.

00:23:32.740 --> 00:23:34.800
 Men would take my life away.

00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:37.600
 Hostile forces press upon me.

00:23:37.700 --> 00:23:39.759
 They pursue me all the day.

00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:41.900
 Slanderers are close behind me.

00:23:42.420 --> 00:23:44.080
 They pursue me all day long.

00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:46.519
 In their arrogance they hound me.

00:23:47.060 --> 00:23:49.080
 They are numerous and strong.

00:23:49.620 --> 00:23:51.980
 We'll sing from verse 1 to verse 9.

00:23:52.340 --> 00:23:54.280
 To God's praise and we stand to sing.

00:23:54.279 --> 00:24:06.399
 O my God, your mercy to me.

00:24:06.399 --> 00:24:13.700
 Men would take my life away.

00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:21.519
 All sad forces press upon me.

00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:26.519
 They pursue me all day long.

00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:27.519
 All day long.

00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:28.519
 All day long.

00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:31.519
 All day long.

00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:33.519
 They are numerous and strong.

00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:36.519
 When they are no guards without me.

00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:38.519
 They are numerous and strong.

00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:43.519
 They are numerous and strong.

00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:50.519
 When they are no guards without me.

00:24:50.519 --> 00:24:55.519
 They are numerous and strong.

00:24:55.519 --> 00:25:07.519
 When I am afraid and trusting.

00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:13.519
 I will praise your faithful word.

00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:21.519
 I will trust and not be fearful.

00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:29.519
 What can man do to me, Lord?

00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:30.519
 All day long.

00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:31.519
 All day long.

00:25:31.519 --> 00:25:32.519
 All day long.

00:25:32.519 --> 00:25:36.519
 They platter hardly.

00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:44.519
 Twisting everything I say.

00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:47.519
 They will praise my heart.

00:25:47.519 --> 00:25:48.519
 They will praise the Lord.

00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:49.519
 And I will praise the Lord.

00:25:49.519 --> 00:25:50.519
 And I will praise the Lord.

00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:51.519
 And I will praise the Lord.

00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:52.519
 All day long.

00:25:52.519 --> 00:25:53.519
 All day long.

00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:57.519
 To take my life away.

00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:14.740
 Let them all dishing their anger, ring the nations down, O Lord.

00:26:14.740 --> 00:26:28.740
 In your hope, write my entreaties, in your scroll my tears record.

00:26:28.740 --> 00:26:43.740
 When I call on you to help me, then my faults will turn aside.

00:26:43.740 --> 00:26:59.779
 This is how I will be certain, that my God is on my side.

00:26:59.779 --> 00:27:00.779
 Amen.

00:27:00.779 --> 00:27:09.279
 Well, if we can turn together to our reading in Genesis chapter 3.

00:27:09.279 --> 00:27:12.779
 I want us to read again at verse 8.

00:27:12.779 --> 00:27:17.819
 Genesis chapter 3, reading at verse 8.

00:27:17.819 --> 00:27:25.519
 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day.

00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:32.559
 And the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:40.139
 But the Lord God called to the man and said to him, Where are you?

00:27:40.140 --> 00:27:42.180
 And so on.

00:27:44.500 --> 00:27:51.340
 But God willing, this coming week, we look forward to a time of communion season in our midst.

00:27:51.860 --> 00:27:54.700
 And we come to remember the Lord's death.

00:27:54.880 --> 00:28:01.040
 But we ask ourselves as we look forward to it, what is it that we are remembering in the Lord's death?

00:28:01.120 --> 00:28:03.820
 What is the reason for his death?

00:28:03.819 --> 00:28:08.779
 But we look at ourselves, we examine ourselves, and we turn to Scripture,

00:28:08.779 --> 00:28:15.579
 and we see what God is saying to us through his word is that we as a people are a fallen people.

00:28:16.059 --> 00:28:20.899
 That is, that our relationship with God has been marred by sin.

00:28:21.579 --> 00:28:25.000
 And in order to be made right once again with God,

00:28:25.559 --> 00:28:28.539
 something had to take place to restore that relationship,

00:28:28.539 --> 00:28:33.139
 to make right that relationship, a price had to be paid.

00:28:33.819 --> 00:28:40.980
 And the price that was paid was ultimately that the Lord Jesus came to give his life.

00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:44.619
 Everything that was foreshadowed in the Old Testament,

00:28:44.879 --> 00:28:49.519
 where you read through it and you see the whole sacrificial system,

00:28:49.779 --> 00:28:54.359
 where sacrifices were offered to have forgiveness of sin,

00:28:54.460 --> 00:28:57.480
 bringing it to the high priest once a year.

00:28:57.480 --> 00:29:03.359
 We see ultimately that pointing to a Savior who is Christ the Lord.

00:29:03.819 --> 00:29:08.159
 The way to God was barred to his people,

00:29:08.639 --> 00:29:13.659
 but a way was opened up once again through the death of the Lord Jesus.

00:29:14.659 --> 00:29:18.579
 And really it takes us back to the roots here in Genesis,

00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:21.139
 in Genesis chapter 3,

00:29:22.019 --> 00:29:25.659
 where we see the coming of sin into the world

00:29:25.660 --> 00:29:28.920
 and how we are all marred by this sin.

00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:32.300
 And the way back to God was cut off,

00:29:32.340 --> 00:29:34.320
 as you see at the end of chapter 3,

00:29:34.860 --> 00:29:38.220
 where the cherubim were there to protect the way to God.

00:29:39.360 --> 00:29:42.220
 And then we see that the man was cast out,

00:29:42.900 --> 00:29:46.740
 cast out of the garden to work the ground in hard toil.

00:29:46.740 --> 00:29:53.440
 But it's a chapter that reminds us too of the wonder of God's grace.

00:29:54.359 --> 00:29:57.779
 That God didn't give to them what they deserved,

00:29:58.380 --> 00:30:01.500
 but that he still showed mercy towards them.

00:30:02.200 --> 00:30:06.039
 And this is the mercy that is shown to us in Christ Jesus.

00:30:06.819 --> 00:30:11.620
 That in him we have one who is able still to take away our sins,

00:30:11.740 --> 00:30:13.859
 to make us right with God.

00:30:13.859 --> 00:30:17.019
 So as we look at this passage tonight,

00:30:17.139 --> 00:30:19.839
 I want to think about it in light of one of the questions

00:30:19.839 --> 00:30:22.139
 that we see in this chapter.

00:30:22.539 --> 00:30:25.779
 I want to ask ourselves that question this evening.

00:30:26.779 --> 00:30:31.719
 But first of all, what's the hardest question

00:30:31.719 --> 00:30:34.240
 you have ever had to answer?

00:30:35.079 --> 00:30:39.339
 What's the hardest question you've ever had to answer?

00:30:40.139 --> 00:30:42.719
 We all find ourselves maybe in situations

00:30:42.720 --> 00:30:44.539
 where we face up to questions,

00:30:44.660 --> 00:30:46.700
 be it from someone around us

00:30:46.700 --> 00:30:49.100
 or in a setting that we find ourselves in,

00:30:49.140 --> 00:30:51.319
 where someone asks us a question.

00:30:51.420 --> 00:30:52.519
 And we maybe think to yourself,

00:30:53.120 --> 00:30:56.259
 I'm just not sure how I might answer this question.

00:30:57.220 --> 00:30:59.759
 There'll be some teenagers in here tonight

00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:00.860
 or maybe listening in.

00:31:01.420 --> 00:31:03.039
 And over the last few months,

00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:05.819
 you've had to sit in a classroom situation,

00:31:06.360 --> 00:31:07.180
 sitting exams.

00:31:07.180 --> 00:31:09.000
 And sometimes when you sit in an exam,

00:31:09.100 --> 00:31:10.779
 you turn over the question sheet

00:31:10.779 --> 00:31:12.299
 and you look at the question,

00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:13.279
 you just think to yourself,

00:31:13.460 --> 00:31:16.039
 oh, I just didn't see that question coming.

00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:19.480
 I'm just not sure how I'm going to try

00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:20.539
 and answer that question.

00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:22.140
 Such a difficult question.

00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:25.480
 We're always maybe facing up to situations

00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:28.140
 where we have difficult questions

00:31:28.140 --> 00:31:30.960
 we have to try and answer.

00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:33.759
 Well, as we look at this chapter,

00:31:33.900 --> 00:31:36.759
 we are reminded of one of the most serious questions

00:31:36.759 --> 00:31:39.420
 that we have to face up to.

00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:42.700
 And maybe it's a question we've answered in the past.

00:31:43.319 --> 00:31:43.960
 And maybe you thought,

00:31:44.460 --> 00:31:45.079
 I'm okay.

00:31:45.740 --> 00:31:46.380
 I'm fine.

00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:48.220
 Everything's well in my life.

00:31:48.299 --> 00:31:49.319
 Everything's going fine.

00:31:50.360 --> 00:31:53.259
 But then you find yourself coming into a situation

00:31:53.259 --> 00:31:56.039
 where the Lord begins to open your eyes

00:31:56.039 --> 00:31:57.100
 and to open your heart.

00:31:57.099 --> 00:32:00.059
 And as he asks this question again,

00:32:00.159 --> 00:32:01.480
 you begin to think to yourself,

00:32:01.619 --> 00:32:02.179
 well, actually,

00:32:02.639 --> 00:32:04.679
 is everything okay in my life?

00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:07.159
 Is where I am now,

00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:09.359
 am I right with God?

00:32:09.419 --> 00:32:12.379
 Or is there something that needs to change?

00:32:13.500 --> 00:32:15.219
 What we find in this chapter,

00:32:15.339 --> 00:32:16.579
 in Genesis chapter 3,

00:32:16.740 --> 00:32:19.759
 is the account of what is called the fall,

00:32:20.919 --> 00:32:23.439
 where sin came into the world,

00:32:23.759 --> 00:32:26.379
 where man's relationship with God

00:32:26.380 --> 00:32:29.040
 was ruined in a sense.

00:32:30.020 --> 00:32:33.140
 And yet where God shows mercy.

00:32:34.120 --> 00:32:36.320
 The shorter Catechson puts it well

00:32:36.320 --> 00:32:37.700
 when he speaks about

00:32:37.700 --> 00:32:39.620
 what man entered into

00:32:39.620 --> 00:32:40.780
 in the beginning with God

00:32:40.780 --> 00:32:41.860
 is called a covenant.

00:32:42.060 --> 00:32:42.940
 This relationship,

00:32:43.520 --> 00:32:44.620
 this bond with God,

00:32:44.660 --> 00:32:46.840
 and it was called a covenant of life.

00:32:48.260 --> 00:32:50.380
 And everything was good and well in the garden.

00:32:50.380 --> 00:32:54.640
 But the covenant had a condition.

00:32:55.740 --> 00:32:58.660
 And the condition was perfect obedience.

00:32:59.180 --> 00:33:00.860
 And as you read through chapter 3,

00:33:01.280 --> 00:33:04.140
 you realize where this obedience was broken.

00:33:04.780 --> 00:33:05.620
 Where the serpent,

00:33:05.760 --> 00:33:06.880
 the crafty serpent,

00:33:07.460 --> 00:33:09.680
 came into the garden with his own questions,

00:33:10.560 --> 00:33:12.200
 leading them away from God.

00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:15.220
 And this question that brought them

00:33:15.220 --> 00:33:17.480
 to a place where they sinned.

00:33:18.019 --> 00:33:19.440
 They broke God's law.

00:33:19.539 --> 00:33:21.920
 They broke their covenant relationship with him.

00:33:22.360 --> 00:33:23.660
 The Catechson again says,

00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:24.940
 the fall brought mankind

00:33:24.940 --> 00:33:28.600
 into an estate of sin and misery.

00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:30.600
 And this chapter alone,

00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:31.400
 chapter 3,

00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:33.400
 makes it clear for us

00:33:33.400 --> 00:33:35.140
 what this misery was.

00:33:35.140 --> 00:33:36.460
 hard labor,

00:33:37.500 --> 00:33:40.000
 a relationship ruined with God,

00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:41.420
 cast out of the garden,

00:33:42.020 --> 00:33:44.940
 ultimately the pain of death.

00:33:46.259 --> 00:33:47.700
 It also brought with it

00:33:47.700 --> 00:33:49.080
 many other difficulties

00:33:49.080 --> 00:33:51.960
 and trials and temptations.

00:33:53.320 --> 00:33:54.460
 And they are all things

00:33:54.460 --> 00:33:56.680
 that we can relate to today as well.

00:33:56.759 --> 00:33:58.340
 We live in a world

00:33:58.340 --> 00:33:59.980
 where sin is all around us,

00:34:00.300 --> 00:34:01.800
 but it's not just out there.

00:34:02.980 --> 00:34:04.259
 Sin is in here.

00:34:04.259 --> 00:34:06.779
 Sin is in our heart.

00:34:07.420 --> 00:34:08.760
 In our own hearts tonight,

00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:11.780
 there is sin because we sin

00:34:11.780 --> 00:34:13.219
 daily in thought,

00:34:13.619 --> 00:34:15.440
 word and deed.

00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:18.500
 You don't have to think too hard

00:34:18.500 --> 00:34:19.380
 to think today,

00:34:20.099 --> 00:34:21.460
 well, how have I sinned?

00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:23.159
 I'm sure all of us

00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:24.940
 can immediately just think of ways

00:34:24.940 --> 00:34:26.599
 we've fallen short,

00:34:26.760 --> 00:34:27.900
 ways we've sinned,

00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:29.420
 something we've said,

00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:32.460
 something we've done,

00:34:32.460 --> 00:34:34.720
 or more often than not,

00:34:35.139 --> 00:34:36.480
 something we've thought.

00:34:37.240 --> 00:34:38.220
 The sins that we think

00:34:38.220 --> 00:34:39.679
 that nobody else sees,

00:34:40.460 --> 00:34:41.639
 but God knows.

00:34:43.559 --> 00:34:45.860
 So what's the solution for us

00:34:45.860 --> 00:34:47.699
 in this situation

00:34:47.699 --> 00:34:49.360
 where we think to yourself tonight

00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:50.699
 and we all think it may be,

00:34:50.900 --> 00:34:51.960
 well, here I am,

00:34:52.420 --> 00:34:54.099
 just a miserable sinner,

00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:55.240
 the chief of sinners

00:34:55.240 --> 00:34:57.340
 as Paul describes himself.

00:34:57.340 --> 00:34:59.300
 What can we do?

00:35:00.019 --> 00:35:02.360
 What's the answer for us?

00:35:03.559 --> 00:35:05.920
 Well, it's not to keep asking questions

00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:07.360
 of ourselves.

00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:09.500
 We can often ask questions

00:35:09.500 --> 00:35:10.260
 of ourselves,

00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:12.420
 but it's to hear the questions

00:35:12.420 --> 00:35:14.200
 that God asks.

00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:18.200
 And in the midst of the garden setting here,

00:35:19.039 --> 00:35:22.260
 when Adam and Eve had sinned against God,

00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:24.440
 when they disobeyed his command,

00:35:24.440 --> 00:35:26.700
 what happened to them?

00:35:27.860 --> 00:35:31.240
 They heard the sound of the Lord God.

00:35:32.280 --> 00:35:33.619
 He was walking in the garden

00:35:33.619 --> 00:35:35.500
 in the cool of the day

00:35:35.500 --> 00:35:38.460
 and they hid themselves.

00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:41.840
 That's not the answer for us.

00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:44.220
 It wasn't the answer for them,

00:35:44.280 --> 00:35:45.059
 as we will see.

00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:46.940
 The answer when we recognize

00:35:46.940 --> 00:35:48.360
 that we fall short,

00:35:48.460 --> 00:35:49.079
 when we're sinners,

00:35:49.200 --> 00:35:52.019
 is not to try and hide ourselves from God,

00:35:52.119 --> 00:35:53.960
 not to try and push God away,

00:35:54.440 --> 00:35:56.840
 the answer is to come near to God

00:35:56.840 --> 00:35:59.220
 and to see that he is a God

00:35:59.220 --> 00:36:01.000
 that is inviting us in,

00:36:01.659 --> 00:36:02.860
 inviting us back.

00:36:03.760 --> 00:36:05.920
 And that is what we see God doing here.

00:36:06.260 --> 00:36:07.840
 In the midst of everything that's happened,

00:36:07.980 --> 00:36:10.380
 God comes with this question

00:36:10.380 --> 00:36:12.579
 that we have in verse 9.

00:36:12.579 --> 00:36:17.000
 But the Lord God called to the man

00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:18.159
 and said to him,

00:36:18.960 --> 00:36:20.639
 Where are you?

00:36:21.779 --> 00:36:22.940
 And it's that question

00:36:22.940 --> 00:36:25.380
 I want us to ponder this evening.

00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:28.099
 It's one of the hardest questions

00:36:28.099 --> 00:36:30.539
 you'll maybe have to give answer to.

00:36:31.420 --> 00:36:33.279
 Where are you?

00:36:33.940 --> 00:36:36.679
 As we remember who is asking that question,

00:36:37.099 --> 00:36:39.219
 it is God, the Lord.

00:36:39.219 --> 00:36:41.379
 And there are three things

00:36:41.379 --> 00:36:43.199
 I want us to take from that question

00:36:43.199 --> 00:36:43.859
 this evening.

00:36:43.980 --> 00:36:44.939
 The first is this,

00:36:45.459 --> 00:36:47.639
 the nature of the question.

00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:51.279
 Secondly, the nurture of the question.

00:36:51.399 --> 00:36:54.699
 And thirdly, the need of the question.

00:36:55.419 --> 00:36:57.599
 So firstly, we see the nature

00:36:57.599 --> 00:36:59.539
 of this question.

00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:02.879
 What do we see of this question?

00:37:04.039 --> 00:37:05.239
 In the nature of it,

00:37:05.259 --> 00:37:06.939
 what kind of question is it?

00:37:06.940 --> 00:37:09.880
 The Lord God called to the man

00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:10.740
 and said to him,

00:37:11.280 --> 00:37:13.099
 Where are you?

00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:18.099
 It's very much a penetrating question.

00:37:19.139 --> 00:37:21.559
 It's a cutting question.

00:37:22.340 --> 00:37:24.840
 It's a question that Adam and Eve

00:37:24.840 --> 00:37:25.639
 are hearing,

00:37:26.659 --> 00:37:28.320
 believing they've hid themselves

00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:29.099
 from God.

00:37:29.500 --> 00:37:30.900
 But God's asking them

00:37:30.900 --> 00:37:33.240
 this penetrating question.

00:37:33.239 --> 00:37:36.159
 It's not like a question

00:37:36.159 --> 00:37:37.299
 that you or I would ask

00:37:37.299 --> 00:37:39.819
 when we don't know the answer.

00:37:40.839 --> 00:37:42.839
 Because God has a knowledge of us

00:37:42.839 --> 00:37:44.739
 that we can never have.

00:37:45.199 --> 00:37:47.639
 We maybe ask questions like this

00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:49.439
 in a frustrated situation

00:37:49.439 --> 00:37:50.739
 where we're thinking,

00:37:50.879 --> 00:37:52.199
 we're looking for our keys.

00:37:52.719 --> 00:37:53.439
 Where are they?

00:37:54.459 --> 00:37:55.739
 Where did I leave them?

00:37:56.479 --> 00:37:58.019
 Or maybe we're trying to drive

00:37:58.019 --> 00:37:59.039
 to a certain place

00:37:59.039 --> 00:37:59.839
 and we're saying to ourselves,

00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:01.299
 Which turning is it?

00:38:01.339 --> 00:38:02.019
 Where do we go?

00:38:02.019 --> 00:38:02.960
 Where do we turn?

00:38:03.800 --> 00:38:05.440
 We ask these questions

00:38:05.440 --> 00:38:06.739
 and we don't know

00:38:06.739 --> 00:38:07.980
 the answers to them.

00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:10.880
 But God asks the question here,

00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:12.139
 not because he doesn't know

00:38:12.139 --> 00:38:12.780
 where they are.

00:38:13.480 --> 00:38:14.840
 He knows exactly

00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:16.219
 where they are.

00:38:17.380 --> 00:38:18.739
 This is not a game of

00:38:18.739 --> 00:38:19.960
 hide and seek

00:38:19.960 --> 00:38:21.500
 that God is playing with them.

00:38:22.059 --> 00:38:23.320
 It's not like us

00:38:23.320 --> 00:38:24.300
 as small children

00:38:24.300 --> 00:38:25.039
 or little children

00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:26.159
 playing with our friends

00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:27.340
 and we try and go

00:38:27.340 --> 00:38:28.259
 and hide somewhere

00:38:28.259 --> 00:38:29.639
 and someone's trying to find us

00:38:29.639 --> 00:38:31.359
 and they're becoming frustrated

00:38:31.359 --> 00:38:31.699
 and they're,

00:38:31.960 --> 00:38:32.679
 where are you?

00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:33.980
 Will you not just come out?

00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:36.339
 This is not God

00:38:36.339 --> 00:38:38.000
 playing a game.

00:38:39.119 --> 00:38:40.859
 God is asking this question

00:38:40.859 --> 00:38:43.219
 in a much more serious way.

00:38:44.099 --> 00:38:44.739
 He knows

00:38:44.739 --> 00:38:46.159
 where they are.

00:38:47.480 --> 00:38:48.239
 And Matthew Henry

00:38:48.239 --> 00:38:49.299
 says in his commentary

00:38:49.299 --> 00:38:50.039
 on this verse

00:38:50.039 --> 00:38:51.099
 that he's not asking

00:38:51.099 --> 00:38:51.940
 this question

00:38:51.940 --> 00:38:53.139
 in the sense of

00:38:53.139 --> 00:38:53.619
 it's not

00:38:53.619 --> 00:38:55.119
 what place

00:38:55.119 --> 00:38:56.259
 are they.

00:38:57.299 --> 00:38:58.699
 What he's asking is

00:38:58.699 --> 00:39:00.759
 in what condition

00:39:00.759 --> 00:39:01.839
 are they?

00:39:02.759 --> 00:39:03.739
 Where are you

00:39:03.739 --> 00:39:05.239
 in the sense

00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:06.699
 of what condition

00:39:06.699 --> 00:39:07.819
 you're in?

00:39:08.799 --> 00:39:09.460
 And that's

00:39:09.460 --> 00:39:10.500
 the nature

00:39:10.500 --> 00:39:11.699
 of this question.

00:39:12.339 --> 00:39:14.019
 It's a penetrating

00:39:14.019 --> 00:39:14.980
 question.

00:39:16.259 --> 00:39:17.420
 God isn't asking you

00:39:17.420 --> 00:39:17.880
 tonight

00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:19.639
 where are you?

00:39:20.179 --> 00:39:21.319
 And your answer is

00:39:21.320 --> 00:39:22.960
 I'm sitting in the church

00:39:22.960 --> 00:39:23.900
 in Kenneth Street.

00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:25.019
 That's not the question

00:39:25.019 --> 00:39:27.180
 that God is asking you here.

00:39:27.880 --> 00:39:28.740
 The question

00:39:28.740 --> 00:39:29.720
 he's asking you here

00:39:29.720 --> 00:39:30.000
 is

00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:31.519
 where are you

00:39:31.519 --> 00:39:32.360
 in the sense of

00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:33.660
 what condition

00:39:33.660 --> 00:39:34.380
 are you in?

00:39:35.200 --> 00:39:36.140
 What condition

00:39:36.140 --> 00:39:36.720
 are you in

00:39:36.720 --> 00:39:38.220
 in your relationship

00:39:38.220 --> 00:39:39.559
 with God?

00:39:40.620 --> 00:39:41.980
 Do you realize

00:39:41.980 --> 00:39:43.200
 what you've done?

00:39:44.900 --> 00:39:45.700
 Adam and Eve

00:39:45.700 --> 00:39:46.240
 are hearing

00:39:46.240 --> 00:39:48.240
 this question.

00:39:49.140 --> 00:39:49.920
 God's question

00:39:49.920 --> 00:39:51.480
 has come as a result

00:39:51.480 --> 00:39:52.579
 of their response

00:39:52.579 --> 00:39:53.340
 to the question

00:39:53.340 --> 00:39:53.960
 that Satan

00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:54.639
 the serpent

00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:56.280
 had asked them earlier.

00:39:56.840 --> 00:39:57.460
 Did God

00:39:57.460 --> 00:39:58.519
 really say

00:39:58.519 --> 00:40:00.119
 that you would die?

00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:02.639
 He had come

00:40:02.639 --> 00:40:03.760
 with his crafty

00:40:03.760 --> 00:40:04.460
 questions.

00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:06.039
 He put doubt

00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:07.200
 into their relationship

00:40:07.200 --> 00:40:08.460
 with God

00:40:08.460 --> 00:40:08.960
 and saying

00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:09.639
 can God

00:40:09.639 --> 00:40:10.880
 really be trusted?

00:40:12.320 --> 00:40:13.099
 That's so often

00:40:13.099 --> 00:40:13.740
 the condition

00:40:13.740 --> 00:40:14.440
 we've been in

00:40:14.440 --> 00:40:15.039
 ourselves.

00:40:16.559 --> 00:40:17.460
 Maybe we've heard

00:40:17.460 --> 00:40:18.000
 of God

00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:18.740
 all our days

00:40:18.739 --> 00:40:19.419
 growing up

00:40:19.419 --> 00:40:20.679
 but now

00:40:20.679 --> 00:40:21.000
 we want to

00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:21.559
 put him away

00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:22.439
 and there's a doubt

00:40:22.439 --> 00:40:23.219
 that comes in.

00:40:23.339 --> 00:40:24.379
 Is God real?

00:40:25.099 --> 00:40:25.679
 Can God

00:40:25.679 --> 00:40:26.639
 be trusted?

00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:29.419
 But then

00:40:29.419 --> 00:40:30.119
 God comes

00:40:30.119 --> 00:40:30.500
 with his

00:40:30.500 --> 00:40:31.859
 own question.

00:40:33.679 --> 00:40:34.559
 God comes

00:40:34.559 --> 00:40:35.339
 and asks you

00:40:35.339 --> 00:40:35.839
 tonight

00:40:35.839 --> 00:40:37.559
 but where

00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:38.119
 are you?

00:40:39.899 --> 00:40:40.719
 Where are you

00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:41.000
 now?

00:40:41.879 --> 00:40:42.479
 What has

00:40:42.479 --> 00:40:43.739
 all of your life

00:40:43.739 --> 00:40:44.039
 done?

00:40:44.119 --> 00:40:44.819
 All that you thought

00:40:44.819 --> 00:40:45.639
 you could get away

00:40:45.639 --> 00:40:45.959
 with?

00:40:46.359 --> 00:40:47.019
 All the ways

00:40:47.019 --> 00:40:47.400
 you thought

00:40:47.400 --> 00:40:47.920
 you could run

00:40:47.920 --> 00:40:48.639
 away from me

00:40:48.639 --> 00:40:49.179
 and hide

00:40:49.179 --> 00:40:49.579
 and just

00:40:49.579 --> 00:40:50.360
 go on

00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:50.960
 with your life

00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:51.360
 in the way

00:40:51.360 --> 00:40:52.099
 that was pleasing

00:40:52.099 --> 00:40:52.900
 to yourself?

00:40:53.300 --> 00:40:53.980
 Where are you

00:40:53.980 --> 00:40:54.259
 now?

00:40:56.039 --> 00:40:56.980
 What condition

00:40:56.980 --> 00:40:57.639
 are you in?

00:40:59.199 --> 00:40:59.920
 What is your

00:40:59.920 --> 00:41:00.599
 relationship

00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:01.860
 with me?

00:41:03.759 --> 00:41:04.199
 Where

00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:05.340
 are you?

00:41:07.739 --> 00:41:08.599
 God's word

00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:09.940
 penetrates.

00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:10.920
 God's voice

00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:12.179
 penetrates

00:41:12.179 --> 00:41:13.119
 here in the garden

00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:14.019
 and it should

00:41:14.019 --> 00:41:14.860
 penetrate into

00:41:14.860 --> 00:41:15.320
 our own

00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:15.680
 hearts

00:41:15.680 --> 00:41:16.099
 tonight

00:41:16.099 --> 00:41:17.200
 asking us

00:41:17.200 --> 00:41:17.800
 that question

00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:18.620
 where are we?

00:41:19.800 --> 00:41:20.260
 The book of

00:41:20.260 --> 00:41:21.000
 Hebrews chapter

00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:22.120
 4 verse 12

00:41:22.120 --> 00:41:23.300
 says the word

00:41:23.300 --> 00:41:23.940
 of God is

00:41:23.940 --> 00:41:24.500
 living and

00:41:24.500 --> 00:41:24.980
 active

00:41:24.980 --> 00:41:26.220
 sharper than

00:41:26.220 --> 00:41:26.860
 any two

00:41:26.860 --> 00:41:27.740
 edged sword

00:41:27.740 --> 00:41:28.280
 piercing

00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:29.440
 to the division

00:41:29.440 --> 00:41:30.200
 of soul

00:41:30.200 --> 00:41:31.019
 and spirit

00:41:31.019 --> 00:41:31.940
 of joints

00:41:31.940 --> 00:41:32.420
 and marrow

00:41:32.420 --> 00:41:33.200
 and discerning

00:41:33.200 --> 00:41:34.280
 the thoughts

00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:35.220
 and intentions

00:41:35.220 --> 00:41:36.780
 of the heart.

00:41:37.940 --> 00:41:38.880
 There's no

00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:39.880
 hiding place

00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:40.559
 from God

00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:41.980
 and his

00:41:41.980 --> 00:41:42.400
 word

00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:43.500
 penetrates.

00:41:44.299 --> 00:41:44.840
 His word

00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:45.579
 searches

00:41:45.579 --> 00:41:46.880
 into your

00:41:46.880 --> 00:41:47.239
 heart

00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:47.659
 tonight

00:41:47.659 --> 00:41:48.420
 asking you

00:41:48.420 --> 00:41:49.279
 that question

00:41:49.279 --> 00:41:50.779
 where are you?

00:41:51.219 --> 00:41:51.539
 And the

00:41:51.539 --> 00:41:52.420
 question

00:41:52.420 --> 00:41:53.019
 that goes

00:41:53.019 --> 00:41:53.360
 with it

00:41:53.360 --> 00:41:53.599
 is

00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:54.759
 what does

00:41:54.759 --> 00:41:55.059
 that

00:41:55.059 --> 00:41:55.920
 convict you

00:41:55.920 --> 00:41:56.579
 of tonight?

00:41:57.960 --> 00:41:58.619
 Where

00:41:58.619 --> 00:42:00.299
 are you?

00:42:01.539 --> 00:42:01.940
 Jesus'

00:42:02.179 --> 00:42:02.679
 question

00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:03.259
 so often

00:42:03.259 --> 00:42:03.659
 did the

00:42:03.659 --> 00:42:04.000
 same

00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:05.559
 when he

00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:06.000
 was with

00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:06.759
 his disciples

00:42:06.759 --> 00:42:07.340
 and people

00:42:07.340 --> 00:42:08.059
 were discussing

00:42:08.059 --> 00:42:09.420
 who Jesus

00:42:09.420 --> 00:42:10.119
 was.

00:42:10.599 --> 00:42:11.039
 Some people

00:42:11.039 --> 00:42:11.559
 were saying

00:42:11.559 --> 00:42:12.340
 that he was

00:42:12.340 --> 00:42:12.759
 John the

00:42:12.759 --> 00:42:13.199
 Baptist

00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:13.840
 others saying

00:42:13.840 --> 00:42:14.239
 one of the

00:42:14.239 --> 00:42:14.840
 prophets

00:42:14.840 --> 00:42:16.699
 but Jesus

00:42:16.699 --> 00:42:17.500
 asked a

00:42:17.500 --> 00:42:17.880
 searching

00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:18.579
 question of

00:42:18.579 --> 00:42:19.219
 his disciples

00:42:19.219 --> 00:42:19.679
 he said

00:42:19.679 --> 00:42:20.000
 to them

00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:21.059
 but what

00:42:21.059 --> 00:42:21.639
 about you

00:42:21.639 --> 00:42:22.259
 who do

00:42:22.259 --> 00:42:23.059
 you say

00:42:23.059 --> 00:42:23.480
 that I

00:42:23.480 --> 00:42:23.759
 am?

00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:25.559
 It's a

00:42:25.559 --> 00:42:26.900
 very similar

00:42:26.900 --> 00:42:27.519
 kind of

00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:27.840
 question

00:42:27.840 --> 00:42:28.400
 it's a

00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:28.920
 searching

00:42:28.920 --> 00:42:29.639
 question

00:42:29.639 --> 00:42:30.500
 it's a

00:42:30.500 --> 00:42:30.980
 piercing

00:42:30.980 --> 00:42:32.199
 question

00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:34.940
 who do

00:42:34.940 --> 00:42:35.500
 you say

00:42:35.500 --> 00:42:36.440
 that I

00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:36.739
 am?

00:42:38.059 --> 00:42:38.960
 where

00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:40.259
 are you?

00:42:41.420 --> 00:42:41.799
 I like

00:42:41.799 --> 00:42:42.239
 to watch

00:42:42.239 --> 00:42:42.900
 sometimes

00:42:42.900 --> 00:42:44.119
 crime

00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:44.739
 dramas

00:42:44.739 --> 00:42:46.259
 when a

00:42:46.259 --> 00:42:46.759
 crime has

00:42:46.759 --> 00:42:47.320
 been committed

00:42:47.320 --> 00:42:48.579
 and maybe

00:42:48.579 --> 00:42:49.019
 a team

00:42:49.019 --> 00:42:49.420
 is trying

00:42:49.420 --> 00:42:49.900
 to work

00:42:49.900 --> 00:42:50.320
 out who

00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:50.759
 committed

00:42:50.759 --> 00:42:51.360
 the crime

00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:51.599
 and they

00:42:51.599 --> 00:42:51.960
 have their

00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:52.519
 suspects

00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:53.119
 they bring

00:42:53.119 --> 00:42:53.559
 them in

00:42:53.559 --> 00:42:54.820
 one of the

00:42:54.820 --> 00:42:55.320
 questions

00:42:55.320 --> 00:42:55.639
 that they

00:42:55.639 --> 00:42:56.320
 often ask

00:42:56.320 --> 00:42:57.099
 is where

00:42:57.099 --> 00:42:57.500
 were you

00:42:57.500 --> 00:42:58.139
 at midnight

00:42:58.139 --> 00:42:59.059
 or a

00:42:59.059 --> 00:42:59.360
 certain

00:42:59.360 --> 00:42:59.799
 time

00:42:59.799 --> 00:43:00.460
 last night?

00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:02.320
 It's a

00:43:02.320 --> 00:43:02.940
 searching

00:43:02.940 --> 00:43:03.679
 question

00:43:03.679 --> 00:43:05.019
 it's a

00:43:05.019 --> 00:43:05.480
 question

00:43:05.480 --> 00:43:06.199
 that your

00:43:06.199 --> 00:43:06.900
 defense is

00:43:06.900 --> 00:43:07.360
 maybe going

00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:08.019
 to be based

00:43:08.019 --> 00:43:08.420
 upon

00:43:08.420 --> 00:43:08.780
 do you

00:43:08.780 --> 00:43:09.099
 have an

00:43:09.099 --> 00:43:09.440
 alibi

00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:11.079
 or can

00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:11.240
 you

00:43:11.240 --> 00:43:11.840
 do you

00:43:11.840 --> 00:43:12.120
 have no

00:43:12.120 --> 00:43:12.700
 answer to

00:43:12.700 --> 00:43:13.280
 that question

00:43:13.280 --> 00:43:13.579
 that's going

00:43:13.579 --> 00:43:14.160
 to convince

00:43:14.160 --> 00:43:15.099
 them that

00:43:15.099 --> 00:43:15.519
 you weren't

00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:16.180
 involved in

00:43:16.180 --> 00:43:16.760
 the crime?

00:43:18.980 --> 00:43:19.579
 Well God's

00:43:19.579 --> 00:43:20.400
 question comes

00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:21.000
 in the same

00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:21.640
 way tonight

00:43:21.640 --> 00:43:22.120
 as well

00:43:22.120 --> 00:43:22.599
 where are

00:43:22.599 --> 00:43:22.920
 you?

00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:24.800
 So can

00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:25.240
 you say

00:43:25.240 --> 00:43:25.620
 you've got

00:43:25.620 --> 00:43:26.160
 your alibi?

00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:28.559
 I am in

00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:29.039
 Christ

00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:30.800
 I am

00:43:30.800 --> 00:43:31.539
 entrusting

00:43:31.539 --> 00:43:32.420
 my soul

00:43:32.420 --> 00:43:33.460
 to him

00:43:33.460 --> 00:43:34.960
 I believe

00:43:34.960 --> 00:43:35.679
 in him

00:43:35.679 --> 00:43:36.720
 with all

00:43:36.720 --> 00:43:37.519
 my heart

00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:38.300
 or like

00:43:38.300 --> 00:43:38.940
 the psalmist

00:43:38.940 --> 00:43:39.400
 in Psalm

00:43:39.400 --> 00:43:40.260
 116

00:43:40.260 --> 00:43:40.679
 you're able

00:43:40.679 --> 00:43:41.059
 to say

00:43:41.059 --> 00:43:42.320
 I love

00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:43.000
 the Lord

00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:44.320
 because my

00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:45.039
 voice and

00:43:45.039 --> 00:43:46.079
 prayers he did

00:43:46.079 --> 00:43:46.420
 hear

00:43:46.420 --> 00:43:47.860
 I while I

00:43:47.860 --> 00:43:48.199
 live

00:43:48.199 --> 00:43:49.199
 will call

00:43:49.199 --> 00:43:49.559
 on him

00:43:49.559 --> 00:43:50.240
 who bowed

00:43:50.240 --> 00:43:50.679
 to me

00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:51.559
 his ear

00:43:51.559 --> 00:43:53.460
 is that

00:43:53.460 --> 00:43:54.360
 your defense

00:43:54.360 --> 00:43:56.880
 or are you

00:43:56.880 --> 00:43:57.519
 recognizing

00:43:57.519 --> 00:43:58.240
 your sin

00:43:58.240 --> 00:43:58.800
 in the sense

00:43:58.800 --> 00:43:59.159
 you've got

00:43:59.159 --> 00:44:00.099
 no defense

00:44:00.099 --> 00:44:01.679
 where are

00:44:01.679 --> 00:44:01.960
 you?

00:44:02.759 --> 00:44:03.339
 You're

00:44:03.339 --> 00:44:03.960
 outside

00:44:03.960 --> 00:44:04.779
 the camp

00:44:04.779 --> 00:44:05.639
 you're

00:44:05.639 --> 00:44:06.339
 away from

00:44:06.339 --> 00:44:06.659
 God

00:44:06.659 --> 00:44:06.940
 you're

00:44:06.940 --> 00:44:07.259
 running

00:44:07.259 --> 00:44:07.940
 you're

00:44:07.940 --> 00:44:08.400
 hiding

00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:10.000
 God is

00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:10.739
 calling you

00:44:10.739 --> 00:44:11.539
 not because

00:44:11.539 --> 00:44:12.019
 he doesn't

00:44:12.019 --> 00:44:12.480
 know where

00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:12.880
 you are

00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:13.139
 but he

00:44:13.139 --> 00:44:13.599
 knows your

00:44:13.599 --> 00:44:14.119
 condition

00:44:14.119 --> 00:44:15.839
 and the

00:44:15.839 --> 00:44:16.339
 nature of

00:44:16.339 --> 00:44:16.880
 his question

00:44:16.880 --> 00:44:17.579
 is a

00:44:17.579 --> 00:44:18.000
 piercing

00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:18.339
 one

00:44:18.339 --> 00:44:19.860
 where

00:44:19.860 --> 00:44:21.079
 are you?

00:44:22.519 --> 00:44:23.000
 But we

00:44:23.000 --> 00:44:23.679
 also see

00:44:23.679 --> 00:44:24.019
 with this

00:44:24.019 --> 00:44:24.400
 question

00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:24.699
 that there

00:44:24.699 --> 00:44:25.299
 is nurture

00:44:25.299 --> 00:44:25.900
 to this

00:44:25.900 --> 00:44:26.360
 question

00:44:26.360 --> 00:44:28.259
 God is

00:44:28.259 --> 00:44:28.659
 asking

00:44:28.659 --> 00:44:29.799
 this in

00:44:29.800 --> 00:44:29.980
 a

00:44:29.980 --> 00:44:30.680
 compassionate

00:44:30.680 --> 00:44:31.180
 way

00:44:31.180 --> 00:44:33.100
 he'll

00:44:33.100 --> 00:44:33.500
 be well

00:44:33.500 --> 00:44:33.960
 within his

00:44:33.960 --> 00:44:34.580
 rights to

00:44:34.580 --> 00:44:35.680
 come and

00:44:35.680 --> 00:44:36.500
 condemn them

00:44:36.500 --> 00:44:36.940
 for what

00:44:36.940 --> 00:44:37.500
 they've done

00:44:37.500 --> 00:44:39.220
 they've

00:44:39.220 --> 00:44:39.900
 broken the

00:44:39.900 --> 00:44:40.280
 covenant

00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:40.600
 they've

00:44:40.600 --> 00:44:40.980
 broken

00:44:40.980 --> 00:44:41.640
 the

00:44:41.640 --> 00:44:42.320
 relationship

00:44:42.320 --> 00:44:42.940
 with God

00:44:42.940 --> 00:44:43.380
 and God

00:44:43.380 --> 00:44:43.920
 was within

00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:44.440
 his rights

00:44:44.440 --> 00:44:45.720
 to cast

00:44:45.720 --> 00:44:46.380
 them away

00:44:46.380 --> 00:44:48.720
 but that's

00:44:48.720 --> 00:44:49.680
 not how

00:44:49.680 --> 00:44:50.160
 God

00:44:50.160 --> 00:44:50.820
 comes

00:44:50.820 --> 00:44:52.640
 so often

00:44:52.640 --> 00:44:53.220
 we maybe

00:44:53.220 --> 00:44:55.200
 see things

00:44:55.200 --> 00:44:55.660
 or hear

00:44:55.660 --> 00:44:56.220
 things where

00:44:56.220 --> 00:44:57.060
 a joke

00:44:57.060 --> 00:44:57.400
 has been

00:44:57.400 --> 00:44:58.160
 played on

00:44:58.160 --> 00:44:58.600
 someone

00:44:58.599 --> 00:44:59.880
 in my

00:44:59.880 --> 00:45:00.179
 younger

00:45:00.179 --> 00:45:00.559
 years

00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:00.839
 it was

00:45:00.839 --> 00:45:01.860
 Beatles

00:45:01.860 --> 00:45:02.279
 about

00:45:02.279 --> 00:45:02.659
 when

00:45:02.659 --> 00:45:03.119
 they

00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:03.319
 used

00:45:03.319 --> 00:45:03.460
 to

00:45:03.460 --> 00:45:03.920
 set

00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:04.119
 up

00:45:04.119 --> 00:45:04.539
 someone

00:45:04.539 --> 00:45:04.880
 to

00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:05.480
 maybe

00:45:05.480 --> 00:45:05.759
 have

00:45:05.759 --> 00:45:05.960
 their

00:45:05.960 --> 00:45:06.500
 card

00:45:06.500 --> 00:45:07.079
 thrashed

00:45:07.079 --> 00:45:07.619
 or something

00:45:07.619 --> 00:45:08.139
 like that

00:45:08.139 --> 00:45:08.440
 and just

00:45:08.440 --> 00:45:09.480
 filming them

00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:09.940
 and what

00:45:09.940 --> 00:45:10.619
 their reaction

00:45:10.619 --> 00:45:11.199
 would be

00:45:11.199 --> 00:45:11.860
 today it's

00:45:11.860 --> 00:45:12.119
 more

00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:13.039
 aunt and

00:45:13.039 --> 00:45:13.339
 deck

00:45:13.339 --> 00:45:13.699
 on a

00:45:13.699 --> 00:45:14.079
 Saturday

00:45:14.079 --> 00:45:14.519
 night

00:45:14.519 --> 00:45:15.579
 setting up

00:45:15.579 --> 00:45:15.839
 some

00:45:15.839 --> 00:45:16.420
 celebrity

00:45:16.420 --> 00:45:17.139
 when something

00:45:17.139 --> 00:45:17.579
 goes

00:45:17.579 --> 00:45:18.339
 wrong

00:45:18.339 --> 00:45:18.699
 and they're

00:45:18.699 --> 00:45:19.000
 just

00:45:19.000 --> 00:45:19.960
 filming them

00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:20.319
 to see

00:45:20.319 --> 00:45:20.880
 how they'll

00:45:20.880 --> 00:45:21.539
 react

00:45:21.539 --> 00:45:22.699
 there's

00:45:22.699 --> 00:45:23.159
 a funny

00:45:23.159 --> 00:45:23.719
 side

00:45:23.719 --> 00:45:24.259
 to it

00:45:24.259 --> 00:45:26.679
 but there's

00:45:26.679 --> 00:45:26.960
 not

00:45:26.960 --> 00:45:28.219
 humour

00:45:28.219 --> 00:45:28.820
 in the

00:45:28.820 --> 00:45:29.360
 way God

00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:29.840
 looks on

00:45:29.840 --> 00:45:30.079
 us

00:45:30.079 --> 00:45:30.800
 he's not

00:45:30.800 --> 00:45:31.199
 looking on

00:45:31.199 --> 00:45:31.559
 us and

00:45:31.559 --> 00:45:31.739
 thinking

00:45:31.739 --> 00:45:32.159
 well I'm

00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:32.480
 just going

00:45:32.480 --> 00:45:32.679
 to do

00:45:32.679 --> 00:45:33.019
 this to

00:45:33.019 --> 00:45:33.320
 see

00:45:33.320 --> 00:45:34.059
 how they

00:45:34.059 --> 00:45:34.679
 react

00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:38.179
 how does

00:45:38.179 --> 00:45:38.960
 God react

00:45:38.960 --> 00:45:39.279
 when we

00:45:39.279 --> 00:45:39.880
 have wronged

00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:40.199
 him

00:45:40.199 --> 00:45:42.900
 how did

00:45:42.900 --> 00:45:44.079
 Christ react

00:45:44.079 --> 00:45:45.440
 as Peter

00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:46.380
 denied him

00:45:46.380 --> 00:45:47.820
 how did

00:45:47.820 --> 00:45:48.380
 he react

00:45:48.380 --> 00:45:48.719
 on the

00:45:48.719 --> 00:45:49.219
 cross as

00:45:49.219 --> 00:45:49.519
 he looked

00:45:49.519 --> 00:45:50.019
 down and

00:45:50.019 --> 00:45:50.719
 saw those

00:45:50.719 --> 00:45:51.500
 who were

00:45:51.500 --> 00:45:52.239
 crucifying

00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:52.480
 him

00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:54.839
 the wonder

00:45:54.839 --> 00:45:55.859
 of compassion

00:45:55.859 --> 00:45:57.599
 and grace

00:45:57.599 --> 00:45:58.179
 and love

00:45:58.179 --> 00:45:58.899
 that he showed

00:45:58.899 --> 00:45:59.799
 towards his

00:45:59.799 --> 00:46:00.099
 own

00:46:00.099 --> 00:46:01.519
 so when you

00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:01.839
 look at the

00:46:01.839 --> 00:46:02.859
 question here

00:46:02.859 --> 00:46:04.439
 where are you

00:46:04.439 --> 00:46:05.079
 God within

00:46:05.079 --> 00:46:05.779
 his rights

00:46:05.779 --> 00:46:06.319
 to come

00:46:06.319 --> 00:46:07.439
 in immediate

00:46:07.439 --> 00:46:08.319
 judgment

00:46:08.319 --> 00:46:09.279
 on these

00:46:09.279 --> 00:46:09.859
 people

00:46:09.859 --> 00:46:10.980
 to condemn

00:46:10.980 --> 00:46:11.139
 them

00:46:11.139 --> 00:46:11.679
 say why

00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:11.959
 have you

00:46:11.959 --> 00:46:12.739
 done this

00:46:12.739 --> 00:46:13.859
 he could

00:46:13.859 --> 00:46:14.239
 give them

00:46:14.239 --> 00:46:14.719
 a lecture

00:46:14.719 --> 00:46:15.039
 and say

00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:15.399
 Adam

00:46:15.399 --> 00:46:15.819
 Eve

00:46:15.819 --> 00:46:16.259
 I can't

00:46:16.259 --> 00:46:16.839
 believe

00:46:16.839 --> 00:46:17.719
 what you've

00:46:17.719 --> 00:46:18.039
 done

00:46:18.039 --> 00:46:20.099
 how could

00:46:20.099 --> 00:46:20.339
 you

00:46:20.340 --> 00:46:21.539
 after all

00:46:21.539 --> 00:46:22.019
 I've done

00:46:22.019 --> 00:46:22.600
 for you

00:46:22.600 --> 00:46:23.240
 how could

00:46:23.240 --> 00:46:23.480
 you be

00:46:23.480 --> 00:46:24.660
 so stupid

00:46:24.660 --> 00:46:28.920
 but God

00:46:28.920 --> 00:46:29.559
 graciously

00:46:29.559 --> 00:46:30.240
 comes to

00:46:30.240 --> 00:46:30.660
 Adam and

00:46:30.660 --> 00:46:30.800
 Eve

00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:31.240
 asking

00:46:31.240 --> 00:46:32.400
 where

00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:33.559
 are you

00:46:33.559 --> 00:46:36.140
 there is

00:46:36.140 --> 00:46:36.500
 almost

00:46:36.500 --> 00:46:37.940
 a sense

00:46:37.940 --> 00:46:38.600
 of humor

00:46:38.600 --> 00:46:39.320
 here

00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:39.660
 when you

00:46:39.660 --> 00:46:39.980
 see

00:46:39.980 --> 00:46:40.500
 they're

00:46:40.500 --> 00:46:41.000
 trying to

00:46:41.000 --> 00:46:41.539
 hide

00:46:41.539 --> 00:46:42.600
 among

00:46:42.600 --> 00:46:43.519
 the trees

00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:45.220
 trying to

00:46:45.220 --> 00:46:45.559
 hide

00:46:45.559 --> 00:46:46.120
 themselves

00:46:46.120 --> 00:46:46.539
 from the

00:46:46.539 --> 00:46:46.960
 God

00:46:46.960 --> 00:46:47.699
 who

00:46:47.699 --> 00:46:47.980
 made

00:46:47.980 --> 00:46:48.240
 the

00:46:48.240 --> 00:46:48.740
 heavens

00:46:48.740 --> 00:46:49.780
 and

00:46:49.780 --> 00:46:49.940
 the

00:46:49.940 --> 00:46:50.420
 earth

00:46:50.420 --> 00:46:52.840
 it's

00:46:52.840 --> 00:46:53.619
 impossible

00:46:53.619 --> 00:46:55.579
 even as

00:46:55.579 --> 00:46:56.099
 we sang

00:46:56.099 --> 00:46:56.320
 in

00:46:56.320 --> 00:46:57.900
 Psalm 139

00:46:57.900 --> 00:46:58.980
 Psalm that

00:46:58.980 --> 00:46:59.400
 says you

00:46:59.400 --> 00:46:59.699
 know it

00:46:59.699 --> 00:47:00.119
 doesn't matter

00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:00.980
 where we go

00:47:00.980 --> 00:47:01.280
 in this

00:47:01.280 --> 00:47:01.559
 world

00:47:01.559 --> 00:47:02.000
 there's no

00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:02.519
 getting away

00:47:02.519 --> 00:47:03.139
 from God

00:47:03.139 --> 00:47:05.039
 whether you

00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:05.420
 take the

00:47:05.420 --> 00:47:05.940
 wings to the

00:47:05.940 --> 00:47:06.720
 utmost parts

00:47:06.720 --> 00:47:07.300
 of sea

00:47:07.300 --> 00:47:08.740
 even there

00:47:08.740 --> 00:47:09.539
 God is

00:47:09.539 --> 00:47:11.679
 there's no

00:47:11.679 --> 00:47:12.179
 hiding

00:47:12.179 --> 00:47:12.659
 there's no

00:47:12.659 --> 00:47:13.500
 getting away

00:47:13.500 --> 00:47:14.780
 from God

00:47:14.780 --> 00:47:17.079
 but God

00:47:17.079 --> 00:47:17.559
 is saying

00:47:17.559 --> 00:47:18.159
 here yes

00:47:18.159 --> 00:47:19.539
 sin must

00:47:19.539 --> 00:47:20.420
 be judged

00:47:20.420 --> 00:47:22.960
 he's not

00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:23.619
 letting that

00:47:23.619 --> 00:47:24.079
 go

00:47:24.079 --> 00:47:25.159
 and we see

00:47:25.159 --> 00:47:25.699
 that at the

00:47:25.699 --> 00:47:26.619
 cross as sin

00:47:26.619 --> 00:47:27.280
 was judged

00:47:27.280 --> 00:47:28.579
 finally as

00:47:28.579 --> 00:47:29.360
 Christ gave

00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:30.000
 his life

00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:32.059
 but God

00:47:32.059 --> 00:47:32.619
 does not

00:47:32.619 --> 00:47:33.199
 immediately

00:47:33.199 --> 00:47:34.599
 give what

00:47:34.599 --> 00:47:34.960
 sin

00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:35.719
 deserves

00:47:35.719 --> 00:47:37.539
 thank God

00:47:37.539 --> 00:47:38.039
 for his

00:47:38.039 --> 00:47:38.500
 grace

00:47:38.500 --> 00:47:40.079
 towards us

00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:41.460
 because where

00:47:41.460 --> 00:47:42.179
 would we be

00:47:42.179 --> 00:47:43.359
 without his

00:47:43.359 --> 00:47:43.819
 grace

00:47:43.819 --> 00:47:45.519
 where would

00:47:45.519 --> 00:47:45.879
 you be

00:47:45.879 --> 00:47:46.379
 tonight

00:47:46.379 --> 00:47:47.419
 without his

00:47:47.419 --> 00:47:47.759
 grace

00:47:47.759 --> 00:47:48.419
 where are

00:47:48.419 --> 00:47:49.039
 you tonight

00:47:49.039 --> 00:47:50.159
 in light

00:47:50.159 --> 00:47:50.500
 of his

00:47:50.500 --> 00:47:50.940
 grace

00:47:50.940 --> 00:47:52.399
 are you

00:47:52.399 --> 00:47:53.000
 leaning upon

00:47:53.000 --> 00:47:53.379
 it

00:47:53.379 --> 00:47:54.239
 are you

00:47:54.239 --> 00:47:54.879
 trusting

00:47:54.879 --> 00:47:55.519
 in it

00:47:55.519 --> 00:47:57.319
 we forget

00:47:57.319 --> 00:47:58.359
 the Lord

00:47:58.359 --> 00:48:00.659
 but as one

00:48:00.659 --> 00:48:01.319
 commentator

00:48:01.319 --> 00:48:01.819
 put it

00:48:01.819 --> 00:48:02.839
 he must

00:48:02.839 --> 00:48:03.599
 draw him

00:48:03.599 --> 00:48:04.339
 out of

00:48:04.339 --> 00:48:04.839
 hiding

00:48:04.839 --> 00:48:06.119
 that's what

00:48:06.119 --> 00:48:06.519
 he says

00:48:06.519 --> 00:48:07.039
 of Adam

00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:08.019
 he is a

00:48:08.019 --> 00:48:08.819
 good shepherd

00:48:08.819 --> 00:48:10.159
 who seeks

00:48:10.159 --> 00:48:10.839
 the lost

00:48:10.839 --> 00:48:11.419
 sheep

00:48:11.420 --> 00:48:13.079
 and it's

00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:13.440
 not what

00:48:13.440 --> 00:48:14.139
 God does

00:48:14.139 --> 00:48:14.820
 to us

00:48:14.820 --> 00:48:16.059
 when he

00:48:16.059 --> 00:48:16.639
 comes to

00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:17.200
 save us

00:48:17.200 --> 00:48:17.639
 from our

00:48:17.639 --> 00:48:17.820
 sin

00:48:17.820 --> 00:48:18.940
 he draws

00:48:18.940 --> 00:48:19.480
 us out

00:48:19.480 --> 00:48:19.800
 of our

00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:20.220
 hiding

00:48:20.220 --> 00:48:20.740
 place

00:48:20.740 --> 00:48:22.180
 wherever

00:48:22.180 --> 00:48:22.559
 you're

00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:22.940
 hiding

00:48:22.940 --> 00:48:23.200
 wherever

00:48:23.200 --> 00:48:23.539
 you're

00:48:23.539 --> 00:48:23.820
 running

00:48:23.820 --> 00:48:24.159
 to

00:48:24.159 --> 00:48:25.039
 you're

00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:25.260
 running

00:48:25.260 --> 00:48:25.559
 from

00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:26.000
 God

00:48:26.000 --> 00:48:27.420
 but he

00:48:27.420 --> 00:48:27.599
 will

00:48:27.599 --> 00:48:28.039
 come

00:48:28.039 --> 00:48:29.320
 and he

00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:29.440
 will

00:48:29.440 --> 00:48:29.740
 come

00:48:29.740 --> 00:48:30.300
 to draw

00:48:30.300 --> 00:48:30.619
 you

00:48:30.619 --> 00:48:31.360
 out

00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:31.539
 of

00:48:31.539 --> 00:48:31.980
 hiding

00:48:31.980 --> 00:48:33.200
 we so

00:48:33.200 --> 00:48:33.539
 easily

00:48:33.539 --> 00:48:34.260
 forget

00:48:34.260 --> 00:48:35.159
 the

00:48:35.159 --> 00:48:35.519
 Lord

00:48:35.519 --> 00:48:35.760
 our

00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:36.180
 God

00:48:36.179 --> 00:48:38.379
 and there's

00:48:38.379 --> 00:48:39.219
 consequences

00:48:39.219 --> 00:48:40.480
 for that

00:48:40.480 --> 00:48:41.279
 Deuteronomy

00:48:41.279 --> 00:48:41.719
 8

00:48:41.719 --> 00:48:42.579
 verse 11

00:48:42.579 --> 00:48:43.019
 says

00:48:43.019 --> 00:48:43.579
 take care

00:48:43.579 --> 00:48:43.940
 lest you

00:48:43.940 --> 00:48:44.339
 forget

00:48:44.339 --> 00:48:44.819
 the Lord

00:48:44.819 --> 00:48:45.379
 your God

00:48:45.379 --> 00:48:46.259
 by not

00:48:46.259 --> 00:48:47.879
 keeping

00:48:47.879 --> 00:48:48.679
 his commandments

00:48:48.679 --> 00:48:49.139
 and his

00:48:49.139 --> 00:48:49.440
 rules

00:48:49.440 --> 00:48:49.759
 and his

00:48:49.759 --> 00:48:50.359
 statutes

00:48:50.359 --> 00:48:51.199
 which I

00:48:51.199 --> 00:48:51.659
 command

00:48:51.659 --> 00:48:52.219
 you today

00:48:52.219 --> 00:48:53.919
 you know

00:48:53.919 --> 00:48:54.259
 he still

00:48:54.259 --> 00:48:55.319
 says to us

00:48:55.319 --> 00:48:55.940
 to keep

00:48:55.940 --> 00:48:56.460
 his laws

00:48:56.460 --> 00:48:56.879
 to keep

00:48:56.879 --> 00:48:57.500
 his commandments

00:48:57.500 --> 00:48:58.659
 but he knows

00:48:58.659 --> 00:48:59.059
 we cannot

00:48:59.059 --> 00:48:59.599
 keep them

00:48:59.599 --> 00:49:00.219
 perfectly

00:49:00.219 --> 00:49:02.000
 but even

00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:02.259
 when we

00:49:02.259 --> 00:49:02.719
 fail

00:49:02.719 --> 00:49:03.519
 in that

00:49:03.519 --> 00:49:03.819
 we have

00:49:03.819 --> 00:49:04.199
 a way

00:49:04.199 --> 00:49:05.000
 to salvation

00:49:05.000 --> 00:49:06.079
 that is

00:49:06.079 --> 00:49:06.539
 through

00:49:06.539 --> 00:49:07.079
 Christ

00:49:07.079 --> 00:49:07.699
 Jesus

00:49:07.699 --> 00:49:09.219
 because when

00:49:09.219 --> 00:49:09.439
 you come

00:49:09.439 --> 00:49:09.799
 into the

00:49:09.799 --> 00:49:10.500
 New Testament

00:49:10.500 --> 00:49:10.839
 you think

00:49:10.839 --> 00:49:11.039
 of the

00:49:11.039 --> 00:49:11.359
 words

00:49:11.359 --> 00:49:12.039
 of Jesus

00:49:12.039 --> 00:49:13.319
 in Matthew

00:49:13.319 --> 00:49:13.739
 11

00:49:13.739 --> 00:49:14.579
 verse 28

00:49:14.579 --> 00:49:15.599
 come to

00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:15.879
 me

00:49:15.879 --> 00:49:16.819
 all you

00:49:16.819 --> 00:49:17.179
 who labor

00:49:17.179 --> 00:49:17.419
 and are

00:49:17.419 --> 00:49:17.859
 heavy laden

00:49:17.859 --> 00:49:18.179
 and I

00:49:18.179 --> 00:49:18.599
 will give

00:49:18.599 --> 00:49:19.379
 you rest

00:49:19.379 --> 00:49:21.539
 he calls

00:49:21.539 --> 00:49:22.659
 a people

00:49:22.659 --> 00:49:24.139
 to himself

00:49:24.139 --> 00:49:25.779
 so even

00:49:25.779 --> 00:49:26.059
 as he

00:49:26.059 --> 00:49:26.659
 asks this

00:49:26.659 --> 00:49:27.259
 question

00:49:27.259 --> 00:49:28.019
 that is

00:49:28.019 --> 00:49:28.699
 nurtured

00:49:28.699 --> 00:49:29.339
 in it

00:49:29.339 --> 00:49:30.799
 where

00:49:30.799 --> 00:49:31.939
 are

00:49:31.939 --> 00:49:32.299
 you

00:49:32.300 --> 00:49:34.400
 but

00:49:34.400 --> 00:49:34.640
 there's

00:49:34.640 --> 00:49:35.140
 warning

00:49:35.140 --> 00:49:35.560
 to

00:49:35.560 --> 00:49:37.580
 he's

00:49:37.580 --> 00:49:37.820
 saying

00:49:37.820 --> 00:49:38.460
 to us

00:49:38.460 --> 00:49:39.680
 will you

00:49:39.680 --> 00:49:40.060
 listen

00:49:40.060 --> 00:49:42.060
 will you

00:49:42.060 --> 00:49:42.400
 heed

00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:42.860
 this

00:49:42.860 --> 00:49:43.360
 question

00:49:43.360 --> 00:49:43.680
 will you

00:49:43.680 --> 00:49:44.100
 recognize

00:49:44.100 --> 00:49:44.460
 your

00:49:44.460 --> 00:49:45.000
 condition

00:49:45.000 --> 00:49:46.320
 how far

00:49:46.320 --> 00:49:46.760
 short

00:49:46.760 --> 00:49:47.019
 you're

00:49:47.019 --> 00:49:47.400
 falling

00:49:47.400 --> 00:49:47.780
 when you're

00:49:47.780 --> 00:49:47.980
 running

00:49:47.980 --> 00:49:48.640
 from me

00:49:48.640 --> 00:49:50.900
 what is

00:49:50.900 --> 00:49:51.080
 your

00:49:51.080 --> 00:49:51.580
 condition

00:49:51.580 --> 00:49:52.620
 tonight

00:49:52.620 --> 00:49:53.080
 in this

00:49:53.080 --> 00:49:53.539
 sense

00:49:53.539 --> 00:49:55.100
 do you

00:49:55.100 --> 00:49:55.420
 need

00:49:55.420 --> 00:49:56.539
 the grace

00:49:56.539 --> 00:49:57.039
 of God

00:49:57.039 --> 00:49:57.380
 as we

00:49:57.380 --> 00:49:57.800
 all do

00:49:57.800 --> 00:49:58.080
 or do

00:49:58.080 --> 00:49:58.200
 you

00:49:58.200 --> 00:49:58.860
 recognize

00:49:58.860 --> 00:49:59.640
 your

00:49:59.640 --> 00:49:59.900
 need

00:49:59.900 --> 00:50:00.220
 of the

00:50:00.220 --> 00:50:00.500
 grace

00:50:00.500 --> 00:50:00.960
 of God

00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:01.320
 or maybe

00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:01.560
 you're

00:50:01.560 --> 00:50:01.840
 saying

00:50:01.840 --> 00:50:02.280
 to yourself

00:50:02.280 --> 00:50:02.740
 I know

00:50:02.740 --> 00:50:03.120
 I need

00:50:03.120 --> 00:50:03.320
 it

00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:05.180
 but I

00:50:05.180 --> 00:50:05.480
 don't

00:50:05.480 --> 00:50:05.960
 deserve

00:50:05.960 --> 00:50:06.519
 it

00:50:06.519 --> 00:50:08.880
 none

00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:09.220
 of us

00:50:09.220 --> 00:50:09.480
 do

00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:11.280
 and yet

00:50:11.280 --> 00:50:11.720
 God

00:50:11.720 --> 00:50:12.640
 by his

00:50:12.640 --> 00:50:12.960
 mercy

00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:13.380
 is able

00:50:13.380 --> 00:50:13.760
 to show

00:50:13.760 --> 00:50:14.320
 grace

00:50:14.320 --> 00:50:15.760
 there's a

00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:16.420
 story told

00:50:16.420 --> 00:50:16.900
 of a man

00:50:16.900 --> 00:50:17.180
 who was

00:50:17.180 --> 00:50:17.620
 struggling

00:50:17.620 --> 00:50:18.860
 to believe

00:50:18.860 --> 00:50:19.260
 and to

00:50:19.260 --> 00:50:20.040
 find peace

00:50:20.040 --> 00:50:20.740
 with God

00:50:20.740 --> 00:50:22.019
 and he

00:50:22.019 --> 00:50:22.860
 came to

00:50:22.860 --> 00:50:23.120
 another

00:50:23.120 --> 00:50:23.640
 Christian

00:50:23.640 --> 00:50:24.080
 friend

00:50:24.080 --> 00:50:24.680
 one day

00:50:24.680 --> 00:50:24.920
 and he

00:50:24.920 --> 00:50:25.300
 said to

00:50:25.300 --> 00:50:25.460
 him

00:50:25.460 --> 00:50:26.440
 I am

00:50:26.440 --> 00:50:27.000
 such

00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:27.600
 a

00:50:27.600 --> 00:50:28.120
 helpless

00:50:28.120 --> 00:50:29.460
 miserable

00:50:29.460 --> 00:50:30.000
 sinner

00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:31.480
 there's

00:50:31.480 --> 00:50:32.139
 no hope

00:50:32.139 --> 00:50:32.659
 for me

00:50:32.659 --> 00:50:34.139
 I've

00:50:34.139 --> 00:50:34.480
 prayed

00:50:34.480 --> 00:50:34.760
 and I've

00:50:34.760 --> 00:50:35.039
 tried

00:50:35.039 --> 00:50:35.559
 my best

00:50:35.559 --> 00:50:35.880
 and I've

00:50:35.880 --> 00:50:36.280
 vowed

00:50:36.280 --> 00:50:36.760
 until I'm

00:50:36.760 --> 00:50:37.320
 sick of

00:50:37.320 --> 00:50:38.119
 my efforts

00:50:38.119 --> 00:50:39.400
 there's

00:50:39.400 --> 00:50:39.920
 just no

00:50:39.920 --> 00:50:40.420
 hope

00:50:40.420 --> 00:50:41.320
 in my

00:50:41.320 --> 00:50:42.260
 situation

00:50:42.260 --> 00:50:44.780
 his friend

00:50:44.780 --> 00:50:45.380
 said to

00:50:45.380 --> 00:50:45.559
 him

00:50:45.559 --> 00:50:46.260
 do you

00:50:46.260 --> 00:50:46.960
 believe

00:50:46.960 --> 00:50:48.159
 that Christ

00:50:48.159 --> 00:50:49.199
 died for

00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:50.240
 your sins

00:50:50.240 --> 00:50:51.119
 and rose

00:50:51.119 --> 00:50:51.460
 again

00:50:51.460 --> 00:50:53.460
 and he

00:50:53.460 --> 00:50:54.139
 said yes

00:50:54.139 --> 00:50:55.179
 of course

00:50:55.179 --> 00:50:56.320
 I do

00:50:56.320 --> 00:50:56.800
 believe

00:50:56.800 --> 00:50:57.280
 that

00:50:57.280 --> 00:50:59.320
 his

00:50:59.320 --> 00:50:59.620
 Christian

00:50:59.620 --> 00:50:59.920
 friend

00:50:59.920 --> 00:51:00.200
 said

00:51:00.200 --> 00:51:00.280
 to

00:51:00.280 --> 00:51:00.380
 him

00:51:00.380 --> 00:51:00.540
 well

00:51:00.540 --> 00:51:01.019
 if

00:51:01.019 --> 00:51:01.140
 he

00:51:01.140 --> 00:51:01.300
 were

00:51:01.300 --> 00:51:01.600
 here

00:51:01.600 --> 00:51:01.760
 on

00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:02.040
 earth

00:51:02.040 --> 00:51:02.560
 in bodily

00:51:02.560 --> 00:51:03.080
 form

00:51:03.080 --> 00:51:03.960
 invisible

00:51:03.960 --> 00:51:04.780
 what would

00:51:04.780 --> 00:51:05.240
 you do

00:51:05.240 --> 00:51:07.260
 he said

00:51:07.260 --> 00:51:07.660
 well I

00:51:07.660 --> 00:51:08.420
 would go

00:51:08.420 --> 00:51:08.800
 to him

00:51:08.800 --> 00:51:09.519
 at once

00:51:09.519 --> 00:51:11.980
 and what

00:51:11.980 --> 00:51:12.280
 would you

00:51:12.280 --> 00:51:12.960
 ask of

00:51:12.960 --> 00:51:13.200
 him

00:51:13.200 --> 00:51:15.200
 well I

00:51:15.200 --> 00:51:15.740
 would ask

00:51:15.740 --> 00:51:15.980
 him

00:51:15.980 --> 00:51:17.620
 to forgive

00:51:17.620 --> 00:51:18.600
 my sins

00:51:18.600 --> 00:51:21.280
 and what

00:51:21.280 --> 00:51:21.600
 would he

00:51:21.600 --> 00:51:22.140
 answer

00:51:22.140 --> 00:51:25.400
 and there

00:51:25.400 --> 00:51:25.700
 was a

00:51:25.700 --> 00:51:26.360
 silence

00:51:26.360 --> 00:51:29.039
 and then

00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:29.500
 he asked

00:51:29.500 --> 00:51:29.980
 him again

00:51:29.980 --> 00:51:30.940
 what would

00:51:30.940 --> 00:51:31.599
 he answer

00:51:31.599 --> 00:51:34.920
 and then

00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:35.400
 suddenly

00:51:35.400 --> 00:51:36.960
 the man's

00:51:36.960 --> 00:51:37.460
 eyes lit

00:51:37.460 --> 00:51:37.980
 up and a

00:51:37.980 --> 00:51:38.599
 smile of

00:51:38.599 --> 00:51:39.059
 peace

00:51:39.059 --> 00:51:40.059
 came on

00:51:40.059 --> 00:51:40.599
 his face

00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:42.960
 he said

00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:43.300
 he would

00:51:43.300 --> 00:51:43.820
 answer

00:51:43.820 --> 00:51:45.220
 I will

00:51:45.220 --> 00:51:48.340
 and that's

00:51:48.340 --> 00:51:49.400
 the wonder

00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:50.180
 of God's

00:51:50.180 --> 00:51:50.620
 grace

00:51:50.620 --> 00:51:52.680
 the devil

00:51:52.680 --> 00:51:53.180
 will have

00:51:53.180 --> 00:51:53.480
 us

00:51:53.480 --> 00:51:54.099
 troubled

00:51:54.099 --> 00:51:54.720
 by our

00:51:54.720 --> 00:51:55.200
 sins

00:51:55.200 --> 00:51:56.140
 forever

00:51:56.139 --> 00:51:56.519
 if he

00:51:56.519 --> 00:51:56.819
 could

00:51:56.819 --> 00:51:58.559
 but the

00:51:58.559 --> 00:51:59.019
 word of

00:51:59.019 --> 00:51:59.400
 God

00:51:59.400 --> 00:51:59.599
 the

00:51:59.599 --> 00:51:59.980
 nurture

00:51:59.980 --> 00:52:00.440
 of it

00:52:00.440 --> 00:52:01.539
 calls us

00:52:01.539 --> 00:52:02.219
 to himself

00:52:02.219 --> 00:52:02.819
 to find

00:52:02.819 --> 00:52:03.859
 one who

00:52:03.859 --> 00:52:04.359
 is able

00:52:04.359 --> 00:52:05.099
 to forgive

00:52:05.099 --> 00:52:06.579
 as it

00:52:06.579 --> 00:52:07.079
 says in

00:52:07.079 --> 00:52:07.739
 first John

00:52:07.739 --> 00:52:08.420
 one verse

00:52:08.420 --> 00:52:08.759
 nine

00:52:08.759 --> 00:52:09.879
 if we

00:52:09.879 --> 00:52:10.619
 confess

00:52:10.619 --> 00:52:11.679
 our sins

00:52:11.679 --> 00:52:12.699
 he is

00:52:12.699 --> 00:52:13.579
 faithful and

00:52:13.579 --> 00:52:14.139
 just to

00:52:14.139 --> 00:52:14.719
 forgive us

00:52:14.719 --> 00:52:15.519
 our sins

00:52:15.519 --> 00:52:16.859
 and cleanse

00:52:16.859 --> 00:52:17.319
 us from

00:52:17.319 --> 00:52:17.819
 all

00:52:17.819 --> 00:52:19.539
 unrighteousness

00:52:19.539 --> 00:52:21.940
 may we

00:52:21.940 --> 00:52:23.039
 see the

00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:23.739
 grace of

00:52:23.739 --> 00:52:24.159
 God

00:52:24.159 --> 00:52:25.039
 the

00:52:25.039 --> 00:52:25.800
 unworthiness

00:52:25.800 --> 00:52:26.519
 because of

00:52:26.519 --> 00:52:27.159
 our sin

00:52:27.159 --> 00:52:28.639
 but see

00:52:28.639 --> 00:52:29.059
 why he

00:52:29.059 --> 00:52:29.619
 came and

00:52:29.619 --> 00:52:30.019
 come and

00:52:30.019 --> 00:52:30.940
 confess our

00:52:30.940 --> 00:52:31.559
 sins

00:52:31.559 --> 00:52:32.960
 and that he

00:52:32.960 --> 00:52:33.739
 is faithful

00:52:33.739 --> 00:52:35.039
 and just

00:52:35.039 --> 00:52:35.940
 to forgive

00:52:35.940 --> 00:52:38.119
 where are

00:52:38.119 --> 00:52:39.039
 you tonight

00:52:39.039 --> 00:52:41.099
 if you

00:52:41.099 --> 00:52:41.719
 will come

00:52:41.719 --> 00:52:42.980
 to him

00:52:42.980 --> 00:52:43.559
 and say

00:52:43.559 --> 00:52:44.039
 to him

00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:44.920
 forgive my

00:52:44.920 --> 00:52:45.579
 sins

00:52:45.579 --> 00:52:46.860
 he is

00:52:46.860 --> 00:52:47.360
 able to

00:52:47.360 --> 00:52:47.779
 say

00:52:47.779 --> 00:52:49.139
 I will

00:52:49.139 --> 00:52:51.739
 the final

00:52:51.739 --> 00:52:52.179
 thing just

00:52:52.179 --> 00:52:52.719
 briefly we

00:52:52.719 --> 00:52:53.900
 see of

00:52:53.900 --> 00:52:54.699
 this question

00:52:54.699 --> 00:52:55.099
 is the

00:52:55.099 --> 00:52:56.340
 need of

00:52:56.340 --> 00:52:56.659
 this

00:52:56.659 --> 00:52:57.340
 question

00:52:57.340 --> 00:53:01.440
 it's such

00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:02.960
 a needful

00:53:02.960 --> 00:53:03.860
 question for

00:53:03.860 --> 00:53:04.480
 us all

00:53:04.480 --> 00:53:06.099
 you know as

00:53:06.099 --> 00:53:06.759
 we approach

00:53:06.759 --> 00:53:07.480
 the Lord's

00:53:07.480 --> 00:53:07.659
 Supper

00:53:07.659 --> 00:53:08.400
 every one

00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:08.779
 of us

00:53:08.779 --> 00:53:09.699
 God willing

00:53:09.699 --> 00:53:10.119
 in this

00:53:10.119 --> 00:53:10.799
 coming week

00:53:10.799 --> 00:53:11.360
 this is a

00:53:11.360 --> 00:53:11.880
 question

00:53:11.880 --> 00:53:13.000
 we need to

00:53:13.000 --> 00:53:13.599
 ask of

00:53:13.599 --> 00:53:14.199
 ourselves

00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:16.299
 where are

00:53:16.299 --> 00:53:16.639
 you

00:53:16.639 --> 00:53:18.939
 if you

00:53:18.939 --> 00:53:19.359
 come

00:53:19.359 --> 00:53:20.439
 as one

00:53:20.439 --> 00:53:20.699
 who is

00:53:20.699 --> 00:53:21.379
 professing

00:53:21.379 --> 00:53:21.879
 faith

00:53:21.879 --> 00:53:22.199
 you will

00:53:22.199 --> 00:53:22.960
 ask yourself

00:53:22.960 --> 00:53:23.739
 that question

00:53:23.739 --> 00:53:24.019
 and you

00:53:24.019 --> 00:53:24.599
 realize

00:53:24.599 --> 00:53:25.619
 so often

00:53:25.619 --> 00:53:26.059
 we're not

00:53:26.059 --> 00:53:26.399
 where we

00:53:26.399 --> 00:53:27.019
 want to

00:53:27.019 --> 00:53:27.399
 be

00:53:27.399 --> 00:53:29.579
 so often

00:53:29.579 --> 00:53:30.199
 we feel

00:53:30.199 --> 00:53:31.379
 so far

00:53:31.379 --> 00:53:31.960
 removed

00:53:31.960 --> 00:53:32.619
 from God

00:53:32.619 --> 00:53:33.439
 so far

00:53:33.439 --> 00:53:34.319
 away

00:53:34.319 --> 00:53:35.159
 from God

00:53:35.159 --> 00:53:36.539
 we see

00:53:36.539 --> 00:53:37.219
 our sins

00:53:37.219 --> 00:53:37.799
 we know

00:53:37.799 --> 00:53:38.039
 them

00:53:38.039 --> 00:53:39.319
 only too

00:53:39.319 --> 00:53:39.699
 well

00:53:39.699 --> 00:53:42.239
 but it's

00:53:42.239 --> 00:53:42.839
 a question

00:53:42.839 --> 00:53:43.339
 that puts

00:53:43.339 --> 00:53:43.899
 us right

00:53:43.900 --> 00:53:44.440
 back to

00:53:44.440 --> 00:53:45.119
 the cross

00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:46.880
 right back

00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:47.860
 to Christ

00:53:47.860 --> 00:53:49.240
 back to

00:53:49.240 --> 00:53:49.559
 where we

00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:50.000
 need to

00:53:50.000 --> 00:53:50.880
 come always

00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:52.440
 recognizing

00:53:52.440 --> 00:53:52.860
 our

00:53:52.860 --> 00:53:53.720
 shortcomings

00:53:53.720 --> 00:53:55.519
 but recognizing

00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:56.260
 we come

00:53:56.260 --> 00:53:58.260
 to do this

00:53:58.260 --> 00:53:58.840
 in remembrance

00:53:58.840 --> 00:53:59.300
 of him

00:53:59.300 --> 00:54:00.079
 not because

00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:00.880
 of ourselves

00:54:00.880 --> 00:54:03.400
 but in

00:54:03.400 --> 00:54:03.800
 remembrance

00:54:03.800 --> 00:54:04.539
 of him

00:54:04.539 --> 00:54:05.940
 and what

00:54:05.940 --> 00:54:06.599
 he's done

00:54:06.599 --> 00:54:10.559
 and if

00:54:10.559 --> 00:54:10.779
 you are

00:54:10.779 --> 00:54:11.079
 not

00:54:11.079 --> 00:54:11.819
 professing

00:54:11.819 --> 00:54:12.319
 tonight

00:54:12.319 --> 00:54:13.759
 this

00:54:13.759 --> 00:54:14.159
 coming

00:54:14.159 --> 00:54:14.440
 week

00:54:14.440 --> 00:54:14.880
 may the

00:54:14.880 --> 00:54:15.239
 Lord

00:54:15.239 --> 00:54:15.940
 prick

00:54:15.940 --> 00:54:16.259
 you in

00:54:16.259 --> 00:54:16.440
 your

00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:16.940
 heart

00:54:16.940 --> 00:54:18.579
 asking

00:54:18.579 --> 00:54:18.980
 you this

00:54:18.980 --> 00:54:19.500
 question

00:54:19.500 --> 00:54:20.179
 where are

00:54:20.179 --> 00:54:20.519
 you

00:54:20.519 --> 00:54:22.679
 and if

00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:23.019
 you're not

00:54:23.019 --> 00:54:23.579
 right with

00:54:23.579 --> 00:54:23.960
 God

00:54:23.960 --> 00:54:24.599
 what needs

00:54:24.599 --> 00:54:25.559
 to change

00:54:25.559 --> 00:54:27.739
 it is

00:54:27.739 --> 00:54:28.340
 to come

00:54:28.340 --> 00:54:30.239
 to come

00:54:30.239 --> 00:54:31.360
 to him

00:54:31.360 --> 00:54:35.179
 when you

00:54:35.179 --> 00:54:35.440
 look at

00:54:35.440 --> 00:54:35.659
 this

00:54:35.659 --> 00:54:36.320
 passage

00:54:36.320 --> 00:54:36.900
 the

00:54:36.900 --> 00:54:37.500
 Lord

00:54:37.500 --> 00:54:38.519
 came to

00:54:38.519 --> 00:54:38.779
 them

00:54:38.779 --> 00:54:40.039
 it says

00:54:40.039 --> 00:54:40.400
 in verse

00:54:40.400 --> 00:54:40.699
 8

00:54:40.699 --> 00:54:41.759
 in the

00:54:41.759 --> 00:54:42.119
 cool

00:54:42.119 --> 00:54:43.440
 of the

00:54:43.440 --> 00:54:43.799
 day

00:54:43.799 --> 00:54:45.559
 and

00:54:45.559 --> 00:54:46.360
 commentators

00:54:46.360 --> 00:54:46.840
 debate

00:54:46.840 --> 00:54:47.340
 and say

00:54:47.340 --> 00:54:47.900
 well what

00:54:47.900 --> 00:54:48.480
 time of

00:54:48.480 --> 00:54:48.759
 day

00:54:48.759 --> 00:54:49.719
 was this

00:54:49.719 --> 00:54:51.539
 there are

00:54:51.539 --> 00:54:51.960
 some who

00:54:51.960 --> 00:54:52.380
 would say

00:54:52.380 --> 00:54:52.840
 and go

00:54:52.840 --> 00:54:53.320
 along with

00:54:53.320 --> 00:54:53.640
 them and

00:54:53.640 --> 00:54:54.039
 say well

00:54:54.039 --> 00:54:54.240
 it's

00:54:54.240 --> 00:54:54.559
 probably

00:54:54.559 --> 00:54:55.059
 first

00:54:55.059 --> 00:54:55.360
 thing

00:54:55.360 --> 00:54:55.620
 in the

00:54:55.620 --> 00:54:55.980
 morning

00:54:55.980 --> 00:54:57.100
 the

00:54:57.100 --> 00:54:57.460
 morning

00:54:57.460 --> 00:54:58.000
 would bring

00:54:58.000 --> 00:54:58.440
 with it

00:54:58.440 --> 00:54:59.140
 a cool

00:54:59.140 --> 00:54:59.680
 wind

00:54:59.680 --> 00:55:00.720
 and the

00:55:00.720 --> 00:55:01.019
 light

00:55:01.019 --> 00:55:01.340
 would be

00:55:01.340 --> 00:55:01.700
 coming

00:55:01.700 --> 00:55:03.260
 and they

00:55:03.260 --> 00:55:03.640
 say this

00:55:03.640 --> 00:55:04.240
 is almost

00:55:04.240 --> 00:55:04.920
 indicative of

00:55:04.920 --> 00:55:05.280
 where they

00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:05.620
 were

00:55:05.620 --> 00:55:06.780
 from the

00:55:06.780 --> 00:55:07.220
 darkness

00:55:07.220 --> 00:55:07.900
 of night

00:55:07.900 --> 00:55:09.160
 knowing that

00:55:09.160 --> 00:55:09.480
 they'd

00:55:09.480 --> 00:55:10.500
 sinned

00:55:10.500 --> 00:55:10.940
 into the

00:55:10.940 --> 00:55:11.440
 light of

00:55:11.440 --> 00:55:12.019
 day when

00:55:12.019 --> 00:55:12.460
 God

00:55:12.460 --> 00:55:13.320
 calls them

00:55:13.320 --> 00:55:15.519
 and showing

00:55:15.519 --> 00:55:15.980
 there

00:55:15.980 --> 00:55:16.780
 we see

00:55:16.780 --> 00:55:17.500
 what Christ

00:55:17.500 --> 00:55:17.900
 did

00:55:17.900 --> 00:55:19.039
 how he

00:55:19.039 --> 00:55:19.500
 came

00:55:19.500 --> 00:55:20.360
 into the

00:55:20.360 --> 00:55:20.820
 darkness

00:55:20.820 --> 00:55:21.220
 of a

00:55:21.220 --> 00:55:21.600
 fallen

00:55:21.600 --> 00:55:22.100
 world

00:55:22.100 --> 00:55:23.240
 but he

00:55:23.239 --> 00:55:23.739
 came as

00:55:23.739 --> 00:55:24.299
 the light

00:55:24.299 --> 00:55:24.599
 of the

00:55:24.599 --> 00:55:25.019
 world

00:55:25.019 --> 00:55:26.159
 the light

00:55:26.159 --> 00:55:26.819
 to show

00:55:26.819 --> 00:55:27.559
 us the

00:55:27.559 --> 00:55:28.039
 way to

00:55:28.039 --> 00:55:28.479
 God

00:55:28.479 --> 00:55:29.519
 and back

00:55:29.519 --> 00:55:30.019
 to him

00:55:30.019 --> 00:55:31.899
 the human

00:55:31.899 --> 00:55:32.839
 response to

00:55:32.839 --> 00:55:33.299
 guilt

00:55:33.299 --> 00:55:34.519
 is so

00:55:34.519 --> 00:55:35.079
 often to

00:55:35.079 --> 00:55:35.579
 try and

00:55:35.579 --> 00:55:36.059
 hide

00:55:36.059 --> 00:55:37.599
 to run

00:55:37.599 --> 00:55:38.019
 away

00:55:38.019 --> 00:55:39.799
 but there's

00:55:39.799 --> 00:55:40.219
 nowhere

00:55:40.219 --> 00:55:41.379
 where we

00:55:41.379 --> 00:55:42.139
 can hide

00:55:42.139 --> 00:55:44.219
 and this

00:55:44.219 --> 00:55:44.879
 question

00:55:44.879 --> 00:55:45.919
 is needful

00:55:45.919 --> 00:55:46.819
 for ourselves

00:55:46.819 --> 00:55:48.719
 where are

00:55:48.719 --> 00:55:49.099
 we

00:55:49.099 --> 00:55:49.959
 today

00:55:49.959 --> 00:55:51.179
 in light

00:55:51.179 --> 00:55:51.799
 of this

00:55:51.800 --> 00:55:54.100
 what is

00:55:54.100 --> 00:55:54.600
 the hardest

00:55:54.600 --> 00:55:55.400
 question

00:55:55.400 --> 00:55:56.780
 you face

00:55:56.780 --> 00:55:57.460
 tonight

00:55:57.460 --> 00:55:58.900
 what is

00:55:58.900 --> 00:55:59.320
 the hardest

00:55:59.320 --> 00:56:00.000
 question

00:56:00.000 --> 00:56:01.019
 you've had

00:56:01.019 --> 00:56:01.700
 to answer

00:56:01.700 --> 00:56:02.780
 in your

00:56:02.780 --> 00:56:03.300
 life

00:56:03.300 --> 00:56:06.039
 well the

00:56:06.039 --> 00:56:06.360
 hardest

00:56:06.360 --> 00:56:07.260
 questions

00:56:07.260 --> 00:56:08.640
 are not

00:56:08.640 --> 00:56:09.260
 the questions

00:56:09.260 --> 00:56:10.280
 for ourselves

00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:11.800
 but the

00:56:11.800 --> 00:56:12.340
 question

00:56:12.340 --> 00:56:13.539
 that puts

00:56:13.539 --> 00:56:14.200
 God into

00:56:14.200 --> 00:56:14.920
 our life

00:56:14.920 --> 00:56:17.659
 and questions

00:56:17.659 --> 00:56:18.800
 prick

00:56:18.800 --> 00:56:19.940
 our hearts

00:56:19.940 --> 00:56:21.940
 one of the

00:56:21.940 --> 00:56:22.240
 greatest

00:56:22.240 --> 00:56:23.000
 questions

00:56:23.000 --> 00:56:24.159
 that challenged

00:56:24.159 --> 00:56:24.880
 me was a

00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:25.619
 question on a

00:56:25.619 --> 00:56:26.360
 tract I was

00:56:26.360 --> 00:56:26.659
 given

00:56:26.659 --> 00:56:28.840
 where will you

00:56:28.840 --> 00:56:29.519
 spend

00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:30.659
 eternity

00:56:30.659 --> 00:56:33.720
 another

00:56:33.720 --> 00:56:34.340
 important

00:56:34.340 --> 00:56:34.920
 question

00:56:34.920 --> 00:56:36.659
 and you can

00:56:36.659 --> 00:56:37.300
 only answer

00:56:37.300 --> 00:56:38.079
 that in light

00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:38.500
 of this

00:56:38.500 --> 00:56:39.079
 question

00:56:39.079 --> 00:56:40.820
 where are

00:56:40.820 --> 00:56:41.099
 you

00:56:41.099 --> 00:56:44.199
 where are

00:56:44.199 --> 00:56:44.440
 you

00:56:44.440 --> 00:56:45.599
 with God

00:56:45.599 --> 00:56:46.279
 tonight

00:56:46.279 --> 00:56:47.900
 is the

00:56:47.900 --> 00:56:48.360
 question

00:56:48.360 --> 00:56:48.960
 we need

00:56:48.960 --> 00:56:51.079
 so how

00:56:51.079 --> 00:56:51.420
 do you

00:56:51.420 --> 00:56:51.880
 answer

00:56:51.880 --> 00:56:54.119
 are you

00:56:54.119 --> 00:56:54.619
 resting

00:56:54.619 --> 00:56:55.500
 in Christ

00:56:55.500 --> 00:56:57.719
 or are you

00:56:57.719 --> 00:56:58.480
 still running

00:56:58.480 --> 00:57:00.059
 and trying

00:57:00.059 --> 00:57:00.759
 to hide

00:57:00.759 --> 00:57:01.880
 in the midst

00:57:01.880 --> 00:57:02.219
 of the

00:57:02.219 --> 00:57:02.779
 trees

00:57:02.779 --> 00:57:03.539
 like Adam

00:57:03.539 --> 00:57:04.059
 and Eve

00:57:04.059 --> 00:57:04.639
 thinking

00:57:04.639 --> 00:57:06.039
 God won't

00:57:06.039 --> 00:57:06.579
 see me

00:57:06.579 --> 00:57:08.679
 God

00:57:08.679 --> 00:57:09.380
 isn't asking

00:57:09.380 --> 00:57:09.639
 you the

00:57:09.639 --> 00:57:10.079
 question

00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:11.039
 because he

00:57:11.039 --> 00:57:11.619
 doesn't know

00:57:11.619 --> 00:57:11.980
 where you

00:57:11.980 --> 00:57:12.340
 are

00:57:12.340 --> 00:57:14.199
 he's asking

00:57:14.199 --> 00:57:14.819
 the question

00:57:14.819 --> 00:57:15.360
 because he

00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:15.799
 knows

00:57:15.799 --> 00:57:17.259
 exactly where

00:57:17.259 --> 00:57:17.719
 you are

00:57:17.719 --> 00:57:19.239
 he knows

00:57:19.239 --> 00:57:19.980
 your condition

00:57:19.980 --> 00:57:21.380
 and the

00:57:21.380 --> 00:57:21.920
 reason he's

00:57:21.920 --> 00:57:22.400
 asking

00:57:22.400 --> 00:57:23.639
 is that you

00:57:23.639 --> 00:57:24.259
 might come

00:57:24.259 --> 00:57:25.159
 and be

00:57:25.159 --> 00:57:25.739
 right with

00:57:25.739 --> 00:57:26.079
 him

00:57:26.079 --> 00:57:28.000
 so ponder

00:57:28.000 --> 00:57:28.980
 this question

00:57:28.980 --> 00:57:30.420
 tonight

00:57:30.420 --> 00:57:31.840
 and God

00:57:31.840 --> 00:57:32.420
 willing if you

00:57:32.420 --> 00:57:32.920
 have time

00:57:32.920 --> 00:57:33.440
 in the days

00:57:33.440 --> 00:57:33.880
 ahead

00:57:33.880 --> 00:57:35.579
 but don't

00:57:35.579 --> 00:57:35.980
 leave it

00:57:35.980 --> 00:57:36.659
 too long

00:57:36.659 --> 00:57:38.420
 because

00:57:38.420 --> 00:57:39.079
 eternity

00:57:39.079 --> 00:57:39.980
 depends

00:57:39.980 --> 00:57:41.159
 on your

00:57:41.159 --> 00:57:41.599
 answer

00:57:41.599 --> 00:57:43.539
 so where

00:57:43.539 --> 00:57:44.880
 are you

00:57:44.880 --> 00:57:46.300
 may you

00:57:46.300 --> 00:57:46.699
 come

00:57:46.699 --> 00:57:48.139
 and find

00:57:48.139 --> 00:57:48.820
 yourself
