BUT TONIGHT I'LL CONFESS
00:00:15.36\00:00:26.96
TO YOU THIS MAY BE
MY FAVORITE SERMON.
00:00:26.96\00:00:31.53
MAYBE.
00:00:31.53\00:00:33.00
I SAY THAT EVERY NIGHT, BUT. . .
00:00:33.00\00:00:35.60
TURN, IF YOU WILL, TO
ISAIAH, THE 58TH CHAPTER,
00:00:35.60\00:00:39.56
AND I'M GOING TO READ
THE FIRST VERSE FROM THE NEW
00:00:39.56\00:00:42.63
INTERNATIONAL VERSION.
00:00:42.63\00:00:43.90
THAT'S WHY I'M GOING TO READ IT
FROM PAPER INSTEAD OF MY BIBLE.
00:00:43.90\00:00:47.23
BUT YOU'LL FIND THE
SAME THING, PRACTICALLY, IN
00:00:47.23\00:00:50.46
YOUR KING JAMES VERSION.
00:00:50.46\00:00:52.56
AND I'M SURE WE
HAVE OTHER VERSIONS HERE.
00:00:52.56\00:00:55.33
WE HAVE AN ESOTERIC GROUP,
SO THAT PEOPLE HAVE BROUGHT
00:00:55.33\00:00:59.26
VERSIONS OF EVERY ILK.
00:00:59.26\00:01:01.93
I HAVE SEEN SOME OF THEM.
00:01:01.93\00:01:03.63
I DON'T KNOW THAT
THEY'RE ANYWHERE NEAR THE TRUTH,
00:01:03.63\00:01:05.80
BUT I'VE SEEN SOME OF IT.
00:01:05.80\00:01:09.26
AND FEEL FREE TO BRING IT.
00:01:09.26\00:01:10.86
HERE IS WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS,
ISAIAH, 58, VERSES 13 AND 14:
00:01:10.86\00:01:17.76
IF YOU KEEP YOUR FEET FROM
BREAKING THE SABBATH, AND FROM
00:01:17.76\00:01:23.33
DOING AS YOU PLEASE ON MY HOLY
DAY, IF YOU CALL THE SABBATH A
00:01:23.33\00:01:29.70
DELIGHT, AND THE LORD'S HOLY DAY
HONORABLE, AND IF YOU HONOR IT
00:01:29.70\00:01:34.90
BY NOT GOING YOUR WAY AND NOT
DOING AS YOU PLEASE OR SPEAKING
00:01:34.90\00:01:40.23
IDLE WORDS, THEN YOU WILL
FIND YOUR JOY IN THE LORD.
00:01:40.23\00:01:47.46
AND I WILL CAUSE YOU TO RIDE
ON THE HEIGHTS OF THE LAND AND
00:01:47.46\00:01:52.46
TO FEAST ON THE INHERITANCE
OF YOUR FATHER JACOB.
00:01:52.46\00:01:57.03
THE MOUTH OF THE
LORD HAS SPOKEN IT.
00:01:57.03\00:02:02.36
NOW, LET'S KIND OF
TASTE THAT A LITTLE BIT.
00:02:02.36\00:02:08.26
THE MOUTH OF THE LORD SAYS, THAT
IF YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF OF
00:02:08.26\00:02:13.76
HIS SABBATH, THAT HE'LL MAKE
YOU FIND YOUR JOY IN THE LORD.
00:02:13.76\00:02:20.70
I SEE THESE TELEVISION
COMMERCIALS THAT MAKE YOU
00:02:20.70\00:02:24.83
THINK THAT PRODUCTS ON
THE SHELVES OF GROCERY STORES
00:02:24.83\00:02:30.33
CAN MAKE YOU HAPPY.
00:02:30.33\00:02:32.73
YOU KNOW HOW THEY DRAMATIZE.
00:02:32.73\00:02:34.83
THEY'VE GOT PEOPLE FLYING
AND PEOPLE SMILING WITH THIS
00:02:34.83\00:02:38.33
UBIQUITOUS EAST-TO-WEST SMILES.
00:02:38.33\00:02:41.16
SOMEBODY EATS A HAMBURGER
AND ACTS LIKE SOMETHING
00:02:41.16\00:02:44.26
WONDERFUL HAS HAPPENED.
00:02:44.26\00:02:45.93
THEY MAKE YOU THINK THAT IF
YOU USE DEODORANT, PEOPLE WILL
00:02:45.93\00:02:48.80
CLING TO YOU AND LOVE YOU.
00:02:48.80\00:02:51.20
THEY MAKE YOU THINK THAT IF
YOU DRINK SOME SOFT DRINK YOU'LL
00:02:51.20\00:02:53.90
HAVE A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.
00:02:53.90\00:02:57.00
AND ALL OF THAT IS TRITE.
00:02:57.00\00:02:59.13
THESE PEOPLE ARE GETTING PAID
TO MAKE YOU THINK SOMETHING'S
00:02:59.13\00:03:02.36
THAT UNIMPORTANT IS IMPORTANT.
00:03:02.36\00:03:05.26
AND THEN, ON TOP OF
THAT, YOU COME TO HEAR THIS
00:03:05.26\00:03:08.70
FROM THE WORD OF GOD.
00:03:08.70\00:03:10.23
AND GOD SAYS, IF YOU TAKE
YOUR FOOT OFF OF MY SABBATH,
00:03:10.23\00:03:13.63
FROM DOING YOUR PLEASURE,
FROM SPEAKING IDLE WORDS,
00:03:13.63\00:03:19.36
IF YOU WILL CALL IT A DELIGHT,
IF YOU'LL RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S
00:03:19.36\00:03:24.40
A DELIGHT, I WILL MAKE
YOU FIND YOUR JOY IN ME.
00:03:24.40\00:03:31.13
AND TRUST ME, IF THE
MOUTH OF THE LORD SAYS YOU'LL
00:03:31.13\00:03:34.76
FIND YOUR JOY IN
JESUS, YOU CAN DEPEND ON IT.
00:03:34.76\00:03:40.20
AND YOU KNOW, JOY, WHAT IS JOY ?
00:03:40.20\00:03:44.56
IS IT ACTING LIKE YOU'RE HAPPY.
00:03:44.56\00:03:47.00
I MEET PEOPLE LIKE THAT.
00:03:47.00\00:03:48.23
AND I APPRECIATE IT.
00:03:48.23\00:03:49.30
LET ME PAUSE TO SAY I
WOULD HATE TO MEET PEOPLE
00:03:49.30\00:03:53.40
ACTING JUST LIKE THEY FEEL.
00:03:53.40\00:03:58.50
IF YOU'RE HAVING A BAD DAY,
I APPRECIATE YOU FOR PUTTING A
00:03:58.50\00:04:01.66
LITTLE SOMETHING ON IT.
00:04:01.66\00:04:03.30
YOU KNOW, HI, HOW ARE YOU ?
00:04:03.30\00:04:05.96
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO I HAVE MET
WHO I DON'T ASK HOW ARE YOU ?
00:04:05.96\00:04:11.93
I DON'T ASK
BECAUSE THEY'LL TELL YOU.
00:04:11.93\00:04:15.23
AND I HAVE ASKED THE
WRONG PERSON FROM TIME TO TIME,
00:04:15.23\00:04:17.60
HOW ARE YOU ?
00:04:17.60\00:04:18.86
WELL, MY COUSIN IS SICK,
MY CAR STOPPED RUNNING TODAY
00:04:18.86\00:04:22.50
IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC.
00:04:22.50\00:04:23.93
I WENT HOME AND HAD
A FLOOD IN MY BASEMENT.
00:04:23.93\00:04:27.43
I WENT TO THE DOCTOR AND I DON'T
KNOW WHAT HE'S GOING TO SAY.
00:04:27.43\00:04:30.03
AND BY THE TIME
THEY GET THROUGH, YOU'RE
00:04:30.03\00:04:32.13
ALL THE WAY DOWN.
00:04:32.13\00:04:34.36
SO WHEN I FIND OUT YOU'LL
DO THAT, I'LL JUST SAY, HEY.
00:04:34.36\00:04:38.76
GOD BLESS YOU.
00:04:38.76\00:04:41.00
BUT I'M NOT TALKING
ABOUT THE PUT-ON JOY.
00:04:41.00\00:04:44.23
GOD SAYS IF YOU TAKE YOUR
FOOT OFF MY SABBATH, IF YOU CALL
00:04:44.23\00:04:50.50
IT A DELIGHT, I WILL HELP
YOU FIND YOUR JOY WHERE THERE IS
00:04:50.50\00:04:56.13
A RENEWABLE SOURCE OF JOY.
00:04:56.13\00:05:00.96
BECAUSE JESUS CAN MAKE YOU
HAPPY WITH NO APPARENT REASON.
00:05:00.96\00:05:07.20
IT'S JUST BECAUSE HE SAID SO.
00:05:07.20\00:05:11.16
SO, LIKE SOME PEOPLE WAKE
UP FEELING LIKE THEY ALWAYS
00:05:11.16\00:05:14.43
GET UP ON THE WRONG SIDE
OF THE BED, JESUS CAN ARRANGE
00:05:14.43\00:05:17.20
IT SO THAT YOU WAKE UP
HAPPY FOR NO APPARENT REASON.
00:05:17.20\00:05:22.83
JUST HAPPY BECAUSE
JESUS PROMISED IT TO YOU.
00:05:22.83\00:05:25.90
THEN IT SAYS YOU WILL RIDE
ON THE HIGH PLACES OF THE EARTH.
00:05:25.90\00:05:32.30
I USED TO SAY RATHER
JOKINGLY THAT I BELIEVE THE HIGH
00:05:32.30\00:05:35.80
PLACES OF THE EARTH
MUST MEAN ROLLS ROYCES.
00:05:35.80\00:05:39.83
AND, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S
SOMEONE LISTENING OR LOOKING
00:05:39.83\00:05:43.86
AND YOU HAVE A ROLLS ROYCE,
IF YOU AND I CAN GET TOGETHER,
00:05:43.86\00:05:47.83
LET'S MAKE AN APPOINTMENT.
00:05:47.83\00:05:48.86
I'D LIKE TO SIT THERE.
00:05:48.86\00:05:50.56
I KNOW HOW TO ACT.
00:05:50.56\00:05:52.00
I WOULDN'T GET ALL EXCITED.
00:05:52.00\00:05:54.40
I'D JUST SIT THERE VERY CALMLY
AND YOU WOULD BE PROUD OF ME.
00:05:54.40\00:05:59.80
BUT I'VE LEARNED THAT JESUS
HAS SOMETHING FAR MORE THAN
00:05:59.80\00:06:03.30
A LEXUS OR A MERCEDES-BENZ.
00:06:03.30\00:06:06.26
HE'S NOT TALKING ABOUT
RIDING ON THE HIGH PLACES OF THE
00:06:06.26\00:06:08.83
EARTH IN AN AUTOMOBILE.
00:06:08.83\00:06:11.16
HE'S TALKING ABOUT
SPIRITUAL AND MATERIAL WEALTH.
00:06:11.16\00:06:16.93
HE WILL MAKE YOU RIDE
ABOVE THE NORMAL SITUATION.
00:06:16.93\00:06:21.73
HE WILL GIVE YOU THE
GOODNESS FROM HIS OWN HEART THAT
00:06:21.73\00:06:25.93
WILL LIFT YOU EVERY
MOMENT OF EVERY DAY.
00:06:25.93\00:06:30.10
AND THEN THE THINGS THAT
YOU NEED, HE WILL SUPPLY IN SO
00:06:30.10\00:06:33.73
GREAT AN AMOUNT, THAT YOU
WON'T HAVE ROOM TO PUT IT THERE.
00:06:33.73\00:06:39.36
THEN, I GOT
CURIOUS THIS PAST WEEK.
00:06:39.36\00:06:44.50
BECAUSE THE TEXT ALSO SAYS
THAT GOD WILL FEED YOU WITH
00:06:44.50\00:06:47.66
THE HERITAGE OF JACOB.
00:06:47.66\00:06:50.60
NOW, I WENT BACK AND STUDIED
ABOUT ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB.
00:06:50.60\00:06:54.73
ISN'T THAT THE THING YOU
SAY IN YOUR PRAYER WHEN YOU
00:06:54.73\00:06:56.53
WANT TO IMPRESS PEOPLE ?
00:06:56.53\00:06:58.46
COME ON.
00:06:58.46\00:06:59.40
CONFESS IT.
00:06:59.40\00:07:00.90
WHEN YOU GO TO A BIG MEETING
AND THEY SAY, WOULD YOU PRAY ?
00:07:00.90\00:07:04.53
AND YOU SAY, WHAT CAN I
SAY THAT WILL IMPRESS THEM ?
00:07:04.53\00:07:11.33
GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB.
00:07:11.33\00:07:17.26
WELL, THE INHERITANCE PASSED
DOWN AND IT CAME TO JACOB.
00:07:17.26\00:07:23.13
SO WHEN GOD SAYS, IF YOU TAKE
YOUR FOOT OFF MY SABBATH, I WILL
00:07:23.13\00:07:28.26
GIVE YOU WHAT I PROMISED JACOB,
THAT MEANS THAT WHAT HE PROMISED
00:07:28.26\00:07:33.43
THE FATHER OF THE FAITHFUL,
HE WILL NOW SHARE WITH YOU.
00:07:33.43\00:07:40.06
I WENT AND CHECKED THE LIST.
00:07:40.06\00:07:42.56
I GOT THE LIST.
00:07:42.56\00:07:44.30
I GOT SEVEN THINGS HERE
THAT GOD PROMISED ABRAHAM,
00:07:44.30\00:07:49.70
ISAAC AND JACOB.
00:07:49.70\00:07:51.83
ARE YOU READY FOR IT ?
00:07:51.83\00:07:53.66
FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELTS.
00:07:53.66\00:07:56.26
NUMBER ONE, HE WILL GIVE
YOU HOLINESS OF CHARACTER.
00:07:56.26\00:08:01.36
ISN'T THAT SOMETHING.
00:08:01.36\00:08:02.86
YOU CAN'T FAKE IT.
00:08:02.86\00:08:05.16
YOU CAN'T PUT IT ON.
00:08:05.16\00:08:06.93
ONLY GOD CAN PROVIDE
HOLINESS OF CHARACTER.
00:08:06.93\00:08:10.40
NUMBER TWO, THE
BLESSINGS OF HEALTH.
00:08:10.40\00:08:13.83
IF YOU WERE A BILLIONAIRE
BUT YOU DIDN'T HAVE HEALTH,
00:08:13.83\00:08:17.23
YOU WOULD NOT ENJOY LIFE.
00:08:17.23\00:08:18.96
BUT GOD GIVES THE
BLESSING OF HEALTH.
00:08:18.96\00:08:21.96
NUMBER THREE,
SUPERIOR INTELLECT.
00:08:21.96\00:08:25.76
ANYBODY IN SCHOOL NOW ?
00:08:25.76\00:08:28.00
ANYBODY HERE TONIGHT
WHO'S IN GRAD SCHOOL ?
00:08:28.00\00:08:31.13
ANYBODY WORKING ON
YOUR MASTERS OR YOUR PH.D. ?
00:08:31.13\00:08:34.46
WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO
HAVE AN INSTALLMENT OF
00:08:34.46\00:08:36.23
SUPERIOR INTELLECT ?
00:08:36.23\00:08:39.00
WELL, I JUST TOLD YOU
HOW TO GET IT--GET YOUR FOOT
00:08:39.00\00:08:41.03
OFF THE SABBATH.
00:08:41.03\00:08:43.76
NUMBER FOUR, GOD PROMISED
SKILL IN AGRICULTURE AND
00:08:43.76\00:08:48.56
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY.
00:08:48.56\00:08:49.70
YOU DON'T NEED THAT PARTICULAR
SKILL, BUT WHAT HE SAYS IS,
00:08:49.70\00:08:53.03
I WILL MAKE IT SO THAT WHEN
YOU GO AT A TASK, YOU WILL DO
00:08:53.03\00:08:57.16
IT WELL BECAUSE I BLESS YOU
FOR KEEPING MY SABBATH HOLY.
00:08:57.16\00:09:02.13
NUMBERIVE,
SUPERIOR CRAFTSMANSHIP.
00:09:02.13\00:09:06.26
HE PROMISED TO
ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB.
00:09:06.26\00:09:09.06
SO WHEN YOU CREATE SOMETHING
WITH YOUR HANDS, GOD WILL
00:09:09.06\00:09:13.26
BE THERE TO INSPIRE YOU
SO THAT IT'S BETTER THAN YOU
00:09:13.26\00:09:17.00
WOULD HAVE IMAGINED.
00:09:17.00\00:09:18.46
NUMBER SIX, YOU WILL
HAVE UNPARALLELED PROSPERITY.
00:09:18.46\00:09:23.23
NOW, YOU KNOW I OUGHT TO
STOP HERE AND TELL YOU TO
00:09:23.23\00:09:25.73
GIVE A SPECI OFFERING.
00:09:25.73\00:09:29.90
I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT
BECAUSE THIS IS NOT MY OFFER.
00:09:29.90\00:09:34.40
THIS IS NOT MY PROMISE.
00:09:34.40\00:09:36.46
THIS IS GOD SAYING I'LL
GIVE YOU THE HERITAGE OF JACOB.
00:09:36.46\00:09:41.33
AND THAT'S PART OF. . .
00:09:41.33\00:09:42.36
THE LAST ONE IS
NATIONAL GREATNESS.
00:09:42.36\00:09:47.23
THIS IS ALL PART OF WHAT
GOD PROMISES IF YOU WILL TAKE
00:09:47.23\00:09:51.80
YOUR FOOT OFF OF HIS SABBATH.
00:09:51.80\00:09:54.70
NOW, LET ME TELL YOU, I
AM IMPRESSED BY THAT, BUT THE
00:09:54.70\00:09:59.23
FACT IS THAT A DAY FOR WORSHIP,
WHICH IS WHAT THE SABBATH TURNS
00:09:59.23\00:10:04.73
OUT TO BE, IS SIMPLY A MARVELOUS
BLESSING TO EVERYONE WHO'S
00:10:04.73\00:10:10.53
READY TO RECEIVE IT.
00:10:10.53\00:10:11.90
IT'S A DAY FOR COMMUNION
WITH GOD AND REMEMBRANCE
00:10:11.90\00:10:17.40
OF HIS CREATIVE POWER.
00:10:17.40\00:10:19.96
NOW, I MUST TELL YOU THAT I
ENJOY, IN FACT, IT TOOK ME A
00:10:19.96\00:10:23.06
LONG TIME TO GET QUIET ENOUGH
TO JUST BE IN SILENCE WITH GOD.
00:10:23.06\00:10:32.20
HAVE YOU EVER TRIED IT ?
00:10:32.20\00:10:34.13
WELL, LET ME GIVE YOU
A COUPLE OF ASSIGNMENTS.
00:10:34.13\00:10:37.33
GET ON YOUR KNEES FOR
ONCE AND DON'T GO WITH
00:10:37.33\00:10:40.93
A LAUNDRY LIST OF REQUESTS.
00:10:40.93\00:10:45.00
JUST PRAISE HIM IN YOUR PRAYER.
00:10:45.00\00:10:48.86
NOW, YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF
SLIPPING OVER INTO REQUESTS.
00:10:48.86\00:10:54.46
BACK UP, AND COME OUT AND
JUST PRAISE GOD, NOT FOR WHAT HE
00:10:54.46\00:11:00.66
GIVES, BUT FOR WHO HE IS.
00:11:00.66\00:11:10.16
GOD SAYS, I WANT YOU TO
HAVE A DAY WHEN THE AGENDA FOR
00:11:10.16\00:11:14.56
THAT DAY IS FOR US TO
COMMUNE WITH EACH OTHER.
00:11:14.56\00:11:19.66
NOT ONLY SHOULD YOU TALK
TO GOD, BUT GOD HAS PROMISED
00:11:19.66\00:11:24.16
THAT HE'LL TALK TO YOU.
00:11:24.16\00:11:26.83
MOST OF US COULD
HEAR HIM EVERY DAY, BUT WE
00:11:26.83\00:11:28.86
DON'T GET QUIET ENOUGH.
00:11:28.86\00:11:30.00
WE'RE TOO BUSY.
00:11:30.00\00:11:30.90
WE'VE GOT THIS
STUFF WE'VE GOT TO DO.
00:11:30.90\00:11:32.60
EVEN PEOPLE WHO CLAIM TO BE
CHRISTIANS HAVE LONG LISTS OF
00:11:32.60\00:11:34.66
THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO DO.
00:11:34.66\00:11:37.00
BUT THERE OUGHT TO BE ONE DAY
WHEN YOU CAN DO GOD'S WILL, BUT
00:11:37.00\00:11:41.10
TAKE A LITTLE TIME TO
LISTEN TO WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.
00:11:41.10\00:11:46.26
I ENJOY TALKING
ABOUT HIS CREATIVE POWER.
00:11:46.26\00:11:49.76
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH
THE EARTH HAS BEEN BLIGHTED
00:11:49.76\00:11:52.93
BY ALL KINDS OF PROBLEMS,
THIS EARTH IS STILL BEAUTIFUL.
00:11:52.93\00:11:58.06
THERE ARE STILL FLOWERS
THAT ARE AMAZING TO LOOK AT, BUT
00:11:58.06\00:12:03.53
YOU'VE GOT TO STOP AND LOOK.
00:12:03.53\00:12:07.36
YOU'VE GOT TO STOP PASSING
BY EVERYTHING IN A RACE TO
00:12:07.36\00:12:11.80
GET SOMETHING ELSE DONE.
00:12:11.80\00:12:13.40
YOU'VE GOT TO TAKE A MOMENT TO
SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL THINGS CAN BE.
00:12:13.40\00:12:17.00
I ENJOY THE OCEAN.
00:12:17.00\00:12:21.20
WELL, YOU'VE HEARD, I
AM LOOKING FOR A CRAFT.
00:12:21.20\00:12:28.03
BUT WHETHER I EVER GET IT
OR NOT, I CAN DRIVE MY CAR
00:12:28.03\00:12:31.83
DOWN TO WHERE THE WATER IS.
00:12:31.83\00:12:33.76
THERE ARE SOME SCIENTISTS
WHO SAY THAT THE WATER MOVES IN
00:12:33.76\00:12:36.43
A CERTAIN WAY THAT GIVES
SOLACE TO YOUR HEART AND YOUR
00:12:36.43\00:12:40.90
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM RESPONDS TO
THE RHYTHM OF WATER AS IT MOVES.
00:12:40.90\00:12:46.33
I'M NOT SURE ABOUT ALL OF
THAT, BUT WHEN I GET NEAR THE
00:12:46.33\00:12:49.06
WATER, I FEEL WONDERFUL.
00:12:49.06\00:12:51.06
IN FACT, I'LL GIVE YOU A
LITTLE SECRET THAT I DON'T
00:12:51.06\00:12:54.16
SHARE WITH MANY PEOPLE,
BUT NOW I GUESS IT'S OUT.
00:12:54.16\00:12:56.56
I HAVE SOMETHING
CALLED ACROPHOBIA.
00:12:56.56\00:13:03.20
IT MEANS THAT WHEN I GET
TOO HIGH, PARTICULARLY ON
00:13:03.20\00:13:08.56
BRIDGES AND LADDERS,
YOU KNOW, I PRAY A LOT.
00:13:08.56\00:13:16.80
WELL, I ASKED A PSYCHIATRIST,
WHO'S A FRIEND OF MINE, I SAID,
00:13:16.80\00:13:21.13
HOW CAN IT BE THAT I'M AFRAID TO
GO ON A BRIDGE AND AFRAID TO GO
00:13:21.13\00:13:23.83
ON A LADDER, BUT WHEN I GET INTO
AN AIRPLANE, I'M USUALLY OKAY ?
00:13:23.83\00:13:28.03
ABOUT A COUPLE TIMES A
YEAR I GET INTO A LITTLE
00:13:28.03\00:13:31.06
PANIC SITUATION.
00:13:31.06\00:13:32.66
AND HE SAID, WELL, YOU
CAN'T SEE THE PERSPECTIVE.
00:13:32.66\00:13:36.26
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW
REALLY HIGH YOU ARE.
00:13:36.26\00:13:38.56
BECAUSE ACROPHOBIA IS
NOT BEING HIGH, IT'S THE FEAR
00:13:38.56\00:13:41.06
OF BEING HIGH.
00:13:41.06\00:13:42.70
IT'S IRRATIONAL.
00:13:42.70\00:13:44.00
SO I SAID, WELL, WHEN
I GET THE PANIC ON THE
00:13:44.00\00:13:46.20
AIRPLANE, WHAT SHOULD I DO ?
00:13:46.20\00:13:47.16
HE SAID, HERE'S
WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO DO.
00:13:47.16\00:13:48.90
YOU'VE GOT TO GET
SOME PHYSICAL ACT CONNECTED
00:13:48.90\00:13:51.26
WITH THE PLACE YOU LOVE.
00:13:51.26\00:13:53.30
WELL, YOU KNOW,
I FIGURED THAT OUT.
00:13:53.30\00:13:55.80
SO, YOU KNOW WHAT A TRAY
TABLE, RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU ?
00:13:55.80\00:14:00.13
WHEN I PUT MY
HANDS UNDERNEATH THE TRAY
00:14:00.13\00:14:03.06
TABLE, I'M AT THE BEACH.
00:14:03.06\00:14:06.13
I'VE DONE IT SO MANY TIMES.
00:14:06.13\00:14:07.80
WHEN I PUT IT, I DON'T
HAVE TO THINK IT ANYMORE.
00:14:07.80\00:14:10.76
THE WAVES ARE THERE.
00:14:10.76\00:14:12.60
AND SO I'VE LEARNED TO
ENJOY THAT EVEN WHEN I CAN'T SEE
00:14:12.60\00:14:15.53
IT, BECAUSE NATURE IS AMAZING.
00:14:15.53\00:14:19.43
GO SOMEWHERE AND
LOOK AT GOD'S CREATION.
00:14:19.43\00:14:23.56
WELL, MAYBE YOU WANT
TO GO LOOK IN THE MIRROR.
00:14:23.56\00:14:25.86
YOU ARE GOD'S CREATION.
00:14:25.86\00:14:29.56
AND YOU MAY NOT LOOK AS
GOOD AS YOU WANT TO LOOK,
00:14:29.56\00:14:32.66
BUT GOD MADE YOU.
00:14:32.66\00:14:34.30
DO YOU KNOW THAT EVEN WHEN YOU
CAN STAND UP, THAT'S A MIRACLE ?
00:14:34.30\00:14:39.23
GOD HAS MADE IT SO THAT YOUR
FOOT IS BALANCED WITH MUSCLES
00:14:39.23\00:14:42.80
IN FRONT OF YOUR LEG
BONES, AND MUSCLES IN BACK.
00:14:42.80\00:14:47.70
AND IF GOD WERE NOT SO GREAT,
YOU WOULD ALWAYS BE DOING THIS.
00:14:47.70\00:14:49.76
YOU WOULD ALWAYS
TRYING TO FIND YOUR BALANCE.
00:14:49.76\00:14:52.00
BUT GOD HAS MADE IT SO THAT YOU
CANNOT ONLY STAND BUT YOU CAN
00:14:52.00\00:14:54.50
PUT A LITTLE STRUT IN YOUR WALK.
00:14:54.50\00:14:59.93
THE AMAZING THING THAT WE CAN
HEAR LANGUAGE, THAT OUR BRAIN
00:14:59.93\00:15:02.60
TAKES IT IN THROUGH THOSE
WONDERFUL MEMBRANES IN THE EAR
00:15:02.60\00:15:07.26
AND THEN THE BRAIN TRANSLATE IT.
00:15:07.26\00:15:09.30
AND THEN YOU CAN
ANSWER WITH A TONGUE.
00:15:09.30\00:15:11.36
WE ARE FEARFULLY
AND WONDERFULLY MADE.
00:15:11.36\00:15:13.70
YOU ARE A WALKING MIRACLE.
00:15:13.70\00:15:18.93
SO, THE SABBATH GIVES YOU A
TIME JUST TO PRAISE GOD FOR THE
00:15:18.93\00:15:26.70
GREAT THINGS THAT HE HAS DONE.
00:15:26.70\00:15:29.00
FOR THE WONDERFUL, AND I PRAISE
GOD THAT I DID NOT COME FROM
00:15:29.00\00:15:32.16
SOME SINGLE-CELLED CREATURE.
00:15:32.16\00:15:37.80
I CANNOT SPEAK FOR YOU.
00:15:37.80\00:15:40.10
IF YOU THINK YOU CAME
FROM SOME AMOEBA, WELL,
00:15:40.10\00:15:44.83
I GUESS YOU KNOW BETTER.
00:15:44.83\00:15:47.20
BUT THE FACT IS THAT I'VE
HEARD ALL THAT STUFF ABOUT
00:15:47.20\00:15:50.60
THE SINGLE-CELL TURNING INTO
SOMETHING LIKE A TADPOLE TURNED
00:15:50.60\00:15:52.53
INTO SOMETHING LIKE A MONKEY WHO
LOST ITS HAIR, STOOD UPRIGHT,
00:15:52.53\00:15:56.76
CRANKED ITS HEAD UP STRAIGHT
AND ONE DAY BECAME A MAN.
00:15:56.76\00:16:00.53
IF YOU THINK YOU GOT
HERE THAT WAY, YOU CAN ACT
00:16:00.53\00:16:02.46
ANY WAY YOU PLEASE.
00:16:02.46\00:16:04.66
BECAUSE IF YOU CAME THAT WAY,
YOU HAVE NO RULES GOVERNING YOU.
00:16:04.66\00:16:08.20
I BELIEVE THAT JESUS, THE ACTIVE
PERSON AND CREATION, BENT OVER
00:16:08.20\00:16:13.26
THE EARTH AND BEGAN TO FORM MAN
OUT OF THE DUST OF THE GROUND.
00:16:13.26\00:16:17.23
I BELIEVE THAT HE BREATHED INTO
HIS NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE.
00:16:17.23\00:16:21.86
I GOT THE NAME OF MY
SHOW IN THERE, DIDN'T I ?
00:16:21.86\00:16:24.46
BREATHE INTO HIS
NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE.
00:16:24.46\00:16:26.93
STOOD THAT CREATURE UP
AND MAN BECAME A LIVING SOUL.
00:16:26.93\00:16:34.63
SO I, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU.
00:16:34.63\00:16:37.20
I'M NOT A GREAT SCIENTIST,
BUT I KNOW WHERE I CAME FROM.
00:16:37.20\00:16:40.73
AND EVERY TIME A BABY IS
BORN, IT'S ANOTHER MIRACLE.
00:16:40.73\00:16:45.26
I TALKED WITH A SCIENTIST
WHO SAYS THEY'VE GOT ALL KINDS
00:16:45.26\00:16:47.36
OF THINGS FIGURED OUT.
00:16:47.36\00:16:48.33
HE SAID THEY CAN ALMOST
CREATE A HUMAN BEING, BUT
00:16:48.33\00:16:52.23
THERE'S ONE LITTLE SPARK
THAT THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT.
00:16:52.23\00:16:57.20
I'M KIND OF HAPPY ABOUT IT.
00:16:57.20\00:16:59.40
WE GOT ENOUGH TROUBLES
WITH THESE ONES THAT GOD MADE.
00:16:59.40\00:17:05.76
BUT YOU OUGHT TO TAKE
TIME TO THANK GOD FOR THE DAY.
00:17:05.76\00:17:10.00
NOW, THIS IS VERY CLEAR.
00:17:10.00\00:17:13.13
AND THIS IS ONE OF THOSE TIMES
WHEN I OUGHT TO CHARGE BECAUSE
00:17:13.13\00:17:17.66
THIS IS A BLESSING FROM GOD
AND GOD SAYS THAT IF YOU TAKE
00:17:17.66\00:17:22.20
YOUR FOOT OFF THAT SABBATH,
I WILL GIVE YOU YOUR JOY.
00:17:22.20\00:17:25.70
YOU'LL FIND YOUR JOY IN ME.
00:17:25.70\00:17:27.70
YOU'LL RIDE ON THE
HIGH PLACES OF THE EARTH.
00:17:27.70\00:17:30.36
THAT MEANS I'LL GIVE YOU
SPIRITUAL WEALTH AND I'LL
00:17:30.36\00:17:33.10
GIVE YOU MATERIAL WEALTH.
00:17:33.10\00:17:34.83
I'LL FEED YOU WITH
THE HERITAGE OF JACOB.
00:17:34.83\00:17:37.30
YOU'VE HEARD MY LIST.
00:17:37.30\00:17:39.10
BUT NOT ONLY YOU.
00:17:39.10\00:17:40.86
GO TO ISAIAH, CHAPTER 56,
AND IF YOU LOOK AT VERSE 2,
00:17:40.86\00:17:46.73
ISAIAH, CHAPTER 56, AND
VERSE 2, IT SAYS, BLESSED IS THE
00:17:46.73\00:17:51.43
MAN THAT DOETH THIS AND THE SON
OF MAN THAT LAYETH HOLD ON IT,
00:17:51.43\00:17:56.60
THAT KEEPETH THE SABBATH FROM
POLLUTING IT, AND KEEPETH HIS
00:17:56.60\00:17:59.73
HAND FROM DOING AN EVIL.
00:17:59.73\00:18:02.23
BUT IT SPREADS OUT.
00:18:02.23\00:18:04.26
THIS IS ISAIAH
56, VERSES 6 AND 7.
00:18:04.26\00:18:08.26
ALSO THE SONS OF THE STRANGER
THAT JOINED THEMSELVES TO THE
00:18:08.26\00:18:14.73
LORD TO SERVE HIM, AND TO
LOVE THE NAME OF THE LORD.
00:18:14.73\00:18:17.33
TO BE HIS SERVANTS.
00:18:17.33\00:18:18.56
EVERYONE THAT KEEPETH THE
SABBATH FROM POLLUTING IT, AND
00:18:18.56\00:18:21.70
TAKETH HOLD OF MY COVENANT, EVEN
THEM WILL I BRING TO MY HOLY
00:18:21.70\00:18:26.90
MOUNTAIN, AND MAKE THEM JOYFUL
IN MY HOUSE OF PRAYER, THEIR
00:18:26.90\00:18:32.43
BURNT OFFERINGS AND THEIR
SACRIFICES SHALL BE ACCEPTED
00:18:32.43\00:18:34.90
UPON MY ALTER, FOR MY
HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED A HOUSE OF
00:18:34.90\00:18:39.26
PRAYER FOR ALL PEOPLE.
00:18:39.26\00:18:41.50
WHAT GOD IS SAYING IS THAT YOU
DON'T HAVE TO BE A TRADITIONAL
00:18:41.50\00:18:45.96
CHRISTIAN TO GET THIS BLESSING.
00:18:45.96\00:18:49.56
YOU CAN BE WHAT SOME PEOPLE
WOULD REFER TO AS A STRANGER.
00:18:49.56\00:18:53.73
BUT IT IS GOD'S INTENT
TO SPREAD THE BLESSINGS.
00:18:53.73\00:18:59.73
GOD DIDN'T INTEND THAT
A FEW PEOPLE GET IT AND
00:18:59.73\00:19:03.10
KEEP IT TO THEMSELVES.
00:19:03.10\00:19:04.10
AND DON'T TELL ME THAT THERE
AREN'T PEOPLE LIKE THAT AROUND.
00:19:04.10\00:19:07.06
I KNOW SOME OF THEM.
00:19:07.06\00:19:08.26
ONCE THEY FIND
SOMETHING LIKE THIS. . .DON'T
00:19:08.26\00:19:10.30
SHARE THAT WITH THEM.
00:19:10.30\00:19:14.13
THEY COULD NEVER APPRECIATE IT.
00:19:14.13\00:19:16.76
LOOK AT HIM.
00:19:16.76\00:19:17.63
HE'S NOT ONE OF US, SO
DON'T SHARE IT WITH HIM.
00:19:17.63\00:19:21.90
WELL, IF YOU'VE GOT THAT
KIND OF ATTITUDE, THERE'S
00:19:21.90\00:19:24.43
SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU.
00:19:24.43\00:19:25.40
WHEN GOD GIVES YOU A
BLESSING, YOU OUGHT TO
00:19:25.40\00:19:27.26
BE WILLING TO SHARE IT, RIGHT ?
00:19:27.26\00:19:29.23
IN FACT, I HEARD
IT PHRASED THIS WAY:
00:19:29.23\00:19:32.83
WHEN YOU FIND THE GOODNESS
THAT GOD OFFERS, YOU OUGHT NOT
00:19:32.83\00:19:36.70
JUST TAKE A SLICE OF BREAD
TO SHARE WITH SOMEONE ELSE.
00:19:36.70\00:19:41.26
YOU OUGHT TO LET YOUR
FRIENDS KNOW THAT YOU'VE FOUND
00:19:41.26\00:19:43.76
THE OWNER OF THE BAKERY.
00:19:43.76\00:19:47.40
AND HE'S GOT
BREAD FOR EVERYBODY.
00:19:47.40\00:19:51.00
THIS IS ONE OF THOSE
THINGS THAT GOD HAS GIVEN TO US.
00:19:51.00\00:19:55.63
NOW, I WAS AT LUNCH AT
ONE OF THOSE NICE HOMES.
00:19:55.63\00:20:05.03
OH, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
00:20:05.03\00:20:06.23
YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE.
00:20:06.23\00:20:08.30
WHEN THEY OPENED THE
DOOR, IT WAS ONE OF THOSE
00:20:08.30\00:20:15.46
CATHEDRAL CEILINGS.
00:20:15.46\00:20:17.46
I TRIED NOT TO LOOK UP.
00:20:17.46\00:20:18.93
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT.
00:20:18.93\00:20:21.90
I JUST GLANCED UP.
00:20:21.90\00:20:23.46
AND THEN, WHEN I LOOKED THROUGH
THE SLIDING GLASS DOOR IN THE
00:20:23.46\00:20:28.13
REAR, THERE WAS A DECK AND
MOORED AT THE DECK WAS A YACHT.
00:20:28.13\00:20:37.60
OH, YOU KNOW THEY
HAD MY ATTENTION NOW.
00:20:37.60\00:20:39.50
I DIDN'T WALK DIRECTLY TO IT.
00:20:39.50\00:20:42.03
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN CRASS.
00:20:42.03\00:20:45.76
I WALKED AROUND AND TALKED
WITH EVERYONE AND I WAS, YOU
00:20:45.76\00:20:48.53
WOULD HAVE BEEN QUITE
PROUD, I ACTED AS THOUGH I MIGHT
00:20:48.53\00:20:52.10
HAVE A YACHT AT MY HOUSE.
00:20:52.10\00:20:56.06
BUT THERE WAS A GENTLEMAN
THERE WHO WAS CONNECTED WITH A
00:20:56.06\00:20:59.46
PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSITY,
AND DURING LUNCH, HE TOLD ME
00:20:59.46\00:21:04.60
SOMETHING THAT GOT ME EXCITED.
00:21:04.60\00:21:06.23
IN FACT, I
PRACTICALLY LOST MY APPETITE.
00:21:06.23\00:21:10.36
HE SAID, PASTOR, I'M GOING
TO SHARE SOMETHING WITH YOU
00:21:10.36\00:21:12.90
THAT YOU CAN'T TELL NOW.
00:21:12.90\00:21:15.03
I SAID, OKAY.
00:21:15.03\00:21:16.90
HE SAID, WE ARE DOING
SOME PRELIMINARY RESEARCH THAT
00:21:16.90\00:21:21.30
SEEMS TO INDICATE THAT
A CHANGE OF HABIT EVERY SO
00:21:21.30\00:21:30.63
MANY DAYS, WEEKS, OR MONTHS
BUILDS UP THE IMMUNE SYSTEM.
00:21:30.63\00:21:36.83
I SAID, IS THAT SO ?
00:21:36.83\00:21:40.93
HE SAID, IT'S ABSOLUTELY SO.
00:21:40.93\00:21:42.06
WE KNOW THAT BREAKING
YOUR HABIT PATTERN EVERY NUMBER
00:21:42.06\00:21:46.30
OF DAYS, WEEKS, OR MONTHS
BUILDS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM.
00:21:46.30\00:21:50.43
HOW MANY KNOW THAT
YOU NEED A POWERFUL IMMUNE
00:21:50.43\00:21:52.33
SYSTEM THESE DAYS ?
00:21:52.33\00:21:55.43
I DON'T WANT TO FRIGHTEN YOU BY
REMINDING YOU OF ALL THE THINGS
00:21:55.43\00:21:58.03
THAT ARE FLOATING IN THE AIR.
00:21:58.03\00:22:00.16
SOME OF YOU MIGHT
TRY TO STOP BREATHING.
00:22:00.16\00:22:04.50
BUT THIS IS WHERE WE ARE.
00:22:04.50\00:22:05.70
WE ALL SHARE THIS AIR.
00:22:05.70\00:22:08.13
BUT IF YOU WANT YOUR
IMMUNE SYSTEM BUILT UP.
00:22:08.13\00:22:10.93
HE WANT ON TO SAY, HE
SAID, PASTOR IT APPEARS THAT THE
00:22:10.93\00:22:15.36
TIME INTERVAL IS SEVEN DAYS.
00:22:15.36\00:22:23.86
I SAID, IS THAT SO ?
00:22:23.86\00:22:30.03
WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
00:22:30.03\00:22:31.80
I DROPPED MY FORK ON THAT ONE.
00:22:31.80\00:22:33.16
HE SAID, NOW, I DON'T
WANT YOU TO GO OUT YET, BECAUSE
00:22:33.16\00:22:37.46
THIS ISN'T CONFIRMED YET.
00:22:37.46\00:22:40.06
SO PLEASE, DON'T PUT
THIS IN A SERMON YET.
00:22:40.06\00:22:43.76
BECAUSE THE SCIENTISTS
HAVEN'T NAILED IT DOWN.
00:22:43.76\00:22:48.60
BUT I JUST WANTED TO TELL
YOU, AND THEN LATER ON WHEN WE
00:22:48.60\00:22:51.60
CONFIRM IT, I WILL BE IN
TOUCH WITH YOU AND PERHAPS THEN
00:22:51.60\00:22:54.50
YOU CAN GET EXCITED ABOUT IT.
00:22:54.50\00:22:56.63
I SAID, BUT YOU
DON'T UNDERSTAND.
00:22:56.63\00:22:58.80
I DON'T HAVE TO
WAIT FOR THE SCIENTISTS.
00:22:58.80\00:23:08.43
GO TO MARK, CHAPTER 2, AND
YOU'LL FIND OUT WHY I DON'T HAVE
00:23:08.43\00:23:13.63
TO WAIT FOR THE SCIENTISTS.
00:23:13.63\00:23:14.60
INCIDENTALLY, IF YOU'RE
LISTENING TO ME, SIR, WOULD YOU
00:23:14.60\00:23:16.53
PLEASE SEND ME THE RESULTS OF
WHAT YOUR SCIENTISTS DISCOVERED.
00:23:16.53\00:23:22.60
I AM INTERESTED IN IT.
00:23:22.60\00:23:23.86
I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SAY,
THE NEXT TIME I PREACH THIS,
00:23:23.86\00:23:28.86
THAT YOU HAVE DONE YOUR
STUDIES AND PERHAPS THEY ARE
00:23:28.86\00:23:31.30
THE SAME AS WHAT I FIND HERE.
00:23:31.30\00:23:35.83
BUT THE REASON WHY I
DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR HIS
00:23:35.83\00:23:37.86
SCIENTISTS IS BECAUSE
I'VE GOT MARK, CHAPTER 2.
00:23:37.86\00:23:42.90
AND LOOK AT VERSE 27.
00:23:42.90\00:23:45.86
MARK, CHAPTER 2, VERSE 27.
00:23:45.86\00:23:49.23
AND HE SAID ONTO THEM--WRITTEN
IN RED--THE SABBATH WAS MADE FOR
00:23:49.23\00:23:56.20
MAN AND NOT MAN FOR THE SABBATH.
00:23:56.20\00:24:00.10
IN FACT, LET ME GIVE
YOU THE NEXT VERSE BECAUSE
00:24:00.10\00:24:01.73
IT'S AN IMPORTANT ONE.
00:24:01.73\00:24:02.83
THEREFORE, THE SON OF MAN
IS LORD ALSO OF THE SABBATH.
00:24:02.83\00:24:07.60
LET ME TELL YOU WHAT THAT MEANS.
00:24:07.60\00:24:11.93
AND I WOULD NOT WANT
TO LECTURE THE SCIENTISTS.
00:24:11.93\00:24:14.00
I HAVE GREAT
RESPECT FOR SCIENTISTS.
00:24:14.00\00:24:15.80
I WISH I'D BECOME ONE.
00:24:15.80\00:24:18.03
I'D HAVE A GIGANTIC SALARY.
00:24:18.03\00:24:20.10
BUT EVEN NOW, WITH MY
PUNY LITTLE SALARY, I CAN TELL
00:24:20.10\00:24:22.90
YOU THAT THE BIBLE CONFIRMS
THAT GOD DID NOT MAKE THE
00:24:22.90\00:24:27.86
SABBATH AND THEN CREATE
PEOPLE TO WORSHIP ON IT.
00:24:27.86\00:24:34.26
HE CREATED MAN ON THE
SIXTH DAY OF THE CREATION WEEK,
00:24:34.26\00:24:40.63
AND THEN KNEW WHAT IT
TOOK TO MAKE MAN REMAIN HEALTHY
00:24:40.63\00:24:45.36
AND HAPPY AND STRONG.
00:24:45.36\00:24:47.90
AND THE FIRST GIFT THAT HE
GAVE TO MAN WAS THE SABBATH.
00:24:47.90\00:24:54.00
BECAUSE THE
SABBATH ENRICHES YOUR LIFE.
00:24:54.00\00:24:58.20
IN FACT, LET ME TELL YOU THIS.
00:24:58.20\00:25:00.46
THE SABBATH GIVES YOU
TIME TO TURN OFF ALL OF THOSE
00:25:00.46\00:25:05.40
TELEVISIONS IN ALL THOSE ROOMS.
00:25:05.40\00:25:08.46
NOW, WHEN I WAS GROWING UP,
I WANT TO SHARE A LITTLE, FROM
00:25:08.46\00:25:11.00
TIME TO TIME YOU NEED TO PEEK
OVER INTO THE WORLD OF POVERTY.
00:25:11.00\00:25:16.46
I KNOW SOME OF YOU
HAVE NEVER BEEN THERE.
00:25:16.46\00:25:19.20
SO LET ME ENRICH YOUR CULTURE.
00:25:19.20\00:25:22.86
AND THIS HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH SKIN COLOR.
00:25:22.86\00:25:25.46
I TOLD YOU, WHEN I WAS
GROWING UP, WE LIVED AROUND
00:25:25.46\00:25:28.30
PEOPLE FROM EVERY, PRACTICALLY
EVERY NATIONAL BACKGROUND,
00:25:28.30\00:25:31.20
BUT WE WERE ALL JOINED
TOGETHER BY OUR POVERTY.
00:25:31.20\00:25:35.43
AND WHAT I LEARNED WAS THIS.
00:25:35.43\00:25:39.30
WE USED TO HAVE A TELEVISION,
FINALLY, AND SOMETHING WOULD
00:25:39.30\00:25:46.36
GO WRONG WITH THAT TELEVISION
AND WE'D GO OUT AND BUY ANOTHER
00:25:46.36\00:25:52.40
TELEVISION, AND WE'D
PUT THE NEWER ONE ON TOP.
00:25:52.40\00:26:05.33
HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT ?
00:26:05.33\00:26:10.66
IN FACT, I REMEMBER A
TIME WHEN THE FIRST TELEVISION
00:26:10.66\00:26:14.00
STOPPED WORKING, AND THE
SECOND TELEVISION STOPPED
00:26:14.00\00:26:17.70
WORKING AND WE TRIED EVERYTHING,
CERTAINLY ALUMINUM FOIL.
00:26:17.70\00:26:24.90
AND THEN WE GOT
THE THIRD TELEVISION.
00:26:24.90\00:26:27.26
AND IT WAS LIKE A
WONDERFUL PYRAMID.
00:26:27.26\00:26:29.53
THE BIG ONE ON THE
BOTTOM AND THE NEXT ONE, AND THE
00:26:29.53\00:26:31.53
LITTLE ONE UP HERE.
00:26:31.53\00:26:33.30
BUT NOW NOBODY DOES THAT.
00:26:33.30\00:26:35.16
THAT'S TERRIBLE.
00:26:35.16\00:26:36.60
THAT'S A THING OF THE PAST.
00:26:36.60\00:26:39.10
NOW EVERY ROOM HAS A TELEVISION.
00:26:39.10\00:26:42.13
SO WHEN EVERYBODY COMES HOME,
WE DON'T EVEN SEE EACH OTHER.
00:26:42.13\00:26:45.76
WE PASS LIKE SHIPS IN THE NIGHT.
00:26:45.76\00:26:47.50
SOMEONE GOES AND GRABS SOMETHING
AND POPS IT IN THE MICROWAVE
00:26:47.50\00:26:51.53
AND THEN THEY GO TO THEIR
ROOM AND WATCH THEIR TELEVISION.
00:26:51.53\00:26:54.00
AND THEN MOM GOES TO HER ROOM,
AND DAD GOES TO HIS ROOM AND
00:26:54.00\00:26:57.86
WE BARELY SEE EACH OTHER.
00:26:57.86\00:26:58.90
ALMOST NEVER.
