00:11 AND WE WOULD ARE BACK. THURSDAY NIGHT LIVE 3ABN TODAY.
00:17 YOU MIGHT AS WELL GET USED TO PASTOR DEE OF CASPER. 00:25 WE ARE WRESTLING WITH THOSE THINGS THAT HELP US PREPARE FOR 00:29 THE SECOND COMING. THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM AND WORKING 00:31 RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM AND SURROUNDER TO HIM AND ACCEPTING 00:34 OF HIS GOODNESS AND GRACE AND NOT CONDEMNING YOURSELF BUT 00:40 COMING TO THE LORD. OH I SAID TO MYSELF MANY TIMES 00:48 WHAT BETTER PLACE THEY COULD BE BUT THE FEET OF JESUS. 00:52 WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF CAUGHT IN SIN, RUN TO THE FEET OF JESUS 00:56 BECAUSE YOU WILL FIND LOVE AND FIND A NON CONDEMNING SPUR 01:02 >> Bob: ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WILL HELP PREPARING IS A 01:04 REALIZATION HOW VALUABLE YOU ARE TO JESUS, HOW MUCH HE CARES FOR 01:08 YOU AND HOW EVERYTHING THAT TOUCHES YOU TOUCHES HIM LET's GO 01:26 INTO SOME OF THESE THINGS AND COME BACK AND LOOK AT SOME OF 01:28 THE THINGS WE SAID. REMEMBER WE SAID THIS IS NOT A 01:35 LOADED QUESTION. LET's LOOK AT THESE AND BEFORE 01:39 THIS IS OVER I WANT US TO WRESTLE OURSELVES WITH THIS IDEA 01:44 OF THE LAST DAY ON EARTH HE SAID I WOULD LIVE DIFFERENTLY TODAY 02:03 IF I KNEW JESUS CHRIST WERE COMING TOMORROW. 02:06 I WOULD SEEK OUT THE ORPHANS AND HELP THEM AS THEY NEED. 02:09 I WOULD LOOK FOR THE WIDOWS AND CARE FOR THEM AS THEY I WOULD 02:17 HAVE HELPED THAT MAN CROSS THE STREET OF OR THE ONE TODAY. 02:23 I'LL GIVE AN EXTRA MOMENT TO THE DESPERATE AND A HELPING HAND TO 02:29 DO THE LORD's WILL. I WOULD SPEAK OF HIS KINGDOM AS 02:34 I SHOULD HAVE VOCALLY AND I'D HAVE SHARED THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH 02:39 IN JESUS CHRIST WITH ALL THAT COME INTO GOD's WILL. 02:59 I WOULD BE ON THE WATCH EACH MOMENT TO CHRIST JESUS FINDS ME 03:03 DOING WHAT HE DID WHILE ON EARTH AND RECEIVE ME INTO HIS KINGDOM. 03:10 IT CHANGES YOU DOES BT IT. IF YOU HAD THE INFORMATION THAT 03:17 VERIFIED THAT JESUS -- CONFIRMATION JESUS IS COMING 03:22 TOMORROW IT CHANGES YOUR MINDSET. 03:24 WHAT YOU GOT? >> I GOT A QUESTION HERE IT's 03:27 BASED ON SOMETHING WE MENTIONED IN THE FIRST HOUR. 03:32 HIS SUFFERING AND CLOSING EVENTS OF HIS LIFE HOW DO WE BALANCE 03:37 THAT WITH THE BLOOD OF THE CHRIST. 03:41 THAT's ALMOST WORSE THAN DWELLING. 03:43 THIS KIND OF MEL GIBSON BLOOD BATH APPROACH. 03:46 A HELPFUL ANSWER FOR THAT THE SUFFERINGS OF JESUS AREN'T 03:50 SHOALLY PHYSICAL. NOW WE ARE NOT SAYING THEY 03:52 WEREN'T PHYSICAL. THEY WERE. 03:53 WE'RE NOT PREACHING A DIFFERENT TYPE OF GOSPEL. 03:56 THEY WERE INTENSELY PAINFUL. WHENEVER HE'S NAILED TO THE 04:03 CROSS YOU AND HAVE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH EVERY NERVE OF HIS BODY 04:06 THE PHYSICAL PAIN WAS HARDLY FELT IN COMPARISON WITH THE 04:10 EMOTIONAL PSYCHOLOGICAL PAIN THAT HE'S ENDURENDURING. 04:16 ONE STRONG READING THE GIST SEPL 90 CHAPTER WHAT YOU'LL FIND 04:21 THESE TWO CHAPTERS. AND THERE ARE OTHER FORMS OF 04:46 SUFFERING THAT JESUS GOES THROUGH. 04:47 WHAT WE COME TO SEE AND OUR VIEW OF THE GOSPEL IS THAT GIGI SUS's 04:55 SU EE/* -- JESUS's SUFFERINGS WERE 04:58 MORE THAN PHYSICAL. THIS WHY HE DIED OF A BROKEN 05:03 HEART. MOST PEOPLE TOOK MULTIPLE DIES 05:06 AND JESUS DIED IN A SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME. 05:09 BECAUSE THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD CRUSHED OUT THE LIFE OF THE SON 05:12 OF GOD AS HE ENDURED THE UNBRIDLED WRATH OF GOD AS GOD. 05:17 SO THAT's WHY WE BELIEVE THAT -- THAT's HELPFUL BECAUSE WE 05:21 REALIZE THAT WE -- I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT. 05:25 ME. MY SINS KILLED JESUS NOT JUST 05:27 SOMEONE ELSE's OR CORPORATE SINS. 05:30 ME INDIVIDUALLY AND THAT's WHAT CAUSES US TO SEARCH OWN HEARTS 05:34 THE UNDESERVED GOODNESS OF GOD IN SPITE OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE. 05:42 >> I SEE THE PERSON's POINT IN A SENSE OF DWELLING ON THE BLOOD -pAND GUTS. 05:46 BUT THERE'S MORE TO THAT. NOBODY COULD MEASURE. 06:18 NOBODY ON THIS EARTH COULD MEASURE. 06:22 WE'RE GIVEN A GLIMPSE AND BEING IN AGONY THAT WE'RE THERE 06:29 CONVEYS A MESSAGE OF THIS STRUGGLE THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE IN 06:34 THE MIND OF CHRIST. BEING INNING A ON MY IT HE 06:38 PRAYED ALL THE MORE ERNESTLY AND GREAT SWEAT AS GREAT DROPS OF 06:42 BLOOD FALLING FROM HIS HEAD BECAUSE OF THE ANGUISH THAT HE 06:45 WAS GOING THROUGH. AS YOU THINK ABOUT THOSE THINGS, 06:48 IT HELPS YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS THIS STRUGGLE IN THE 06:53 MIND OF CHRIST OF, DO I RETURN TO THE JOYS OF HEAVEN AND ESCAPE 06:58 THIS MENTAL ANGUISH AND THIS PHYSICAL SUFFERING I'LL ENDURE 07:02 IF I CONTINUE GOING INTO THE DIRECTION THAT I'M GOING. 07:19 THERE'S THIS MOMENT AS IF THE THE FATE OF THE WORLD, THE FATE 07:28 OF MY SALVATION HUNG IN A LITTLE TINY STRING THAT JESUS COULD 07:32 SAY, I'M GOING TO WIPE THE BLOODY SWEAT AND JUST GOING TO 07:37 STOP RIGHT HERE AND G BACK TO HE 08:21 HEAVEN. WE DON'T SEE THE INVOLVEMENT IN 08:24 SATAN AS MUCH AS WE SEE IT IN DESIRE OF AGES WHICH HELPS US 08:27 UNDERSTAND. HE DIDN'T GIVE UP. 08:28 HE WAS THERE UNTIL THE LAST MOMENT HOPING THAT HE WOULD THIS 08:37 IS ENOUGH. AND I'M TIRED AND I'M NOT GOING 08:40 THROUGH THIS. BUT, THE MIRACLE OF HOLDING ON 08:44 THE FAITH OF CHRIST. I'M GOING TO SAY THE FAITH OF 09:25 CHRIST I THINK IT's WHAT YOU FOCUS ON. 09:28 THE FACT THAT THIS IS ALL BEING DEALT WITH IN A MILIEU OF 09:34 TORTURE IS A GIVEN. BUT THINK OF OF THE CONVERSATION 09:41 ON THE CROSS. CHRIST STOPPED DEATH AND HAD A 09:44 REASONABLE RATIONAL CONVERSATION IN THE MIDST OF ALL THAT BLOOD 09:46 AND SWEAT. SO YOU CAN FOCUS ON THAT ARE OR 09:49 YOU CAN FOCUS ON THE LOVE OF CHRIST WHICH IS SO STRONG THAT 09:53 WHEN AN IF HE WILL OH THRAOEF SAYS LOOKS AT HIM AND TURNS AND 10:01 WHAT's INTERESTING ABOUT WHERE DOES HE SPEND THE LAST 6, EIGHTH 10:23 TWELT HOURS OF HIS LIFE IN THE COMPANY OF JESUS. 10:26 AND 3 HOURS ON THE CROSS RIGHT NEXT TO JESUS. 10:29 CHRIST GETS IN THIS EXTENDED SECOND CHANCE WHICH HE LEAPS AT 10:55 IN THE MIDST OF ALL THIS PAIN AND BLEEDING AND CROWN OF 11:00 THORPBZ. I TOUCHED THAT THORN BUSH, LONG, 11:04 RAZOR SHARP THORPBZ HE STOPS AND HAS A REASONABLE CONVERSATION 11:07 AND SAVES SOMEBODY SO THAT's WHAT YOU NEED TO FOCUS ON. 11:24 WE'RE TOLD THAT JESUS WOULD HAVE DIED IN THE GARDEN. 11:27 HE HE WOULDN'T HAVE MADE IT TO THE CROSS WHERE GODSEND AN ANGEL 11:32 FROM HEAVEN WHO CRADLES THE HEAD OF JESUS IN HIS BOSOM. 11:39 HE WAS LONGING FOR HUMAN AFFECTION AND THE DISCIPLES GAVE 11:43 HIM NOTHING. WHEN HE WRESTLES HE SAYS HIS 11:46 DECISION IS MADE AND HE'LL SAVE MAN AT ANY COST TO HIMSELF. 11:49 GOD SUFFERED WITH HIS SON. THERE WAS SILENCE IN HEAVEN. 11:53 AND COULD MORTALS HAVE VIEWED THE AMUSEL AS IN SILENT GRIEF 11:59 THEY WATCH THE FATHER SEPARATING. 12:11 THIS IS WHY WE SHOULD TAKE THAT THOUGHTFUL HOUR. 12:20 WHAT HE WOULD DOUGH THROUGH WHILE HE'S GOING THROUGH IT AND 12:23 AFTER HE WENT THROUGH IT. HE SAYS THAT HE WHAT YOU 12:26 SATURDAYS FADE. WHY? 12:28 BECAUSE BY HIS KNOWLEDGE MY RIGHTEOUS SERVANT SHALL JUSTIFY 12:31 MANY AND HE SHOULD BEAR THEIR INEQUITIES. 12:36 IF THIS IS WHAT IT TAKES I'LL DO IT. 12:39 IT IMMEDIATELY PLACE AS VALUE ON YOU, THE FAITH OF JESUS PLACE AS 12:43 VALUE ON YOU THAT YOU DON'T SEE AND LEADS YOU TO RESPOND BY 12:46 HAVING A FAITH IN JESUS. IT SAYS NOW OUR LORD JESUS 13:05 CHRIST AND GOD OUR FATHER WHO LOVED US AND HAD GIVEN US EVER 13:12 LASTING CONSOLATION. EVER LASTING CONSOLATION AND 13:19 HOPE HOPE THROUGH GRACE. OH MY GOODNESS. 13:21 IT'S A WONDERFUL -- I'VE GOT TO FIND IT. 13:24 FORGIVE ME. WHILE I'M LOOKING YOU CAN -- 13:26 IT's A WONDERFUL TEXT BUT IT's A GREAT, GREAT TEXT AND I'VE GOT 13:42 TO -- IT's A GREAT TEXT. >> IT's ACTUALLY RELEVANT TO THE 14:22 TOPIC AT HAND TOO. >> HUH-UH. 14:27 >> HERE WE GO. NOW MAY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST 14:30 HIMSELF AND GOD IN FATHER WHO LOVED US AND GIVEN US EVER 14:34 LASTING CONSOLATION -- THAT IS SUCH A COOL SET OF WORDS. 14:38 EVER LASTING CONSOLATION. AND GOOD HOPE BY GRACE. 14:46 COMFORT YOUR HEARTS AND ESTABLISH YOU IN EVERY GOOD WORD 14:52 AND WORK. YOU CAN TRUST HIM BECAUSE HE 15:02 WENT THROUGH IT ALL SO ESTABLISH IN EVERY GOOD WORD AND WORK. 15:07 THIS IS WHAT WILL LEAD TO A WORK BY LOVE. 15:40 AMEN. HE HAS SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT 15:44 HAND OF THE THRONE OF GOD. IT'S ALMOST BEYOND MY 15:46 UNDERSTANDING. IT WAS. 15:48 BEYOND MY UNDERSTANDING. JESUS ON THE CROSS IS THERE 15:51 DYING FOR ME WELL FOR THE HUMAN RACE AND DYING FOR YOU. 15:55 THAT THERE WAS THIS JOY SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDST OF 16:01 SUFFERING BECAUSE OF THE JOY OF MAKING AVAILABLE SALVATION TO 16:08 ME. ISN'T THAT AMAZING. 16:11 WE COULD SPEND A LONG TIME TALKING ABOUT WHAT JESUS HAD 16:15 DONE FOR US FOR THE JOY THAT WAS SET BEFORE HIM ENDURED THE CROSS 16:19 DESPITE THE SHAME. SOMEHOW IN THE MIDST OF ALL 16:23 THAT, DYING ON THE CROSS AND NAILS IN HIS HANDS, THE CROWN OF 16:28 THORNS AS WELL AS THE FEET, THE SUFFERING HE COULDN'T EVEN 16:32 BREATH PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE ON THE LUNGS. 16:35 I HAVE A LOT OF MATERIAL ON THIS. 16:39 AND STILL THERE'S JOY. I CAN DO THIS. 16:41 I HAVE TO DO THIS. I HAVE TO DO THIS FOR JOHN FOR 16:52 DEE AND ENDURE THE CROSS. EVEN THE POINT THERE'S THIS -- 16:56 THAT WHY I SUGGEST IF YOU -- THERE'S THIS PART OF THE 17:01 SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS, MY GOD, MY GOD. 17:04 WHY HAS THOU FORSAKEN ME. HE SEES THE TRA TRAIL OF THE 17:18 SOUL AND IS SATISFIED. >> THAT IS POWER. 17:22 . HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S GOING TO GO 17:23 THROUGH AND HE'S GOING THROUGH WHAT HE'S GOING THROUGH. 17:26 HE'S GETTING THROUGH WHAT HE'S GOING THROUGH AND THEN HE LOOKS 17:28 ON BACK AND HE LOOKS BACK ON WHAT HE WENT THROUGH AND SAYS, 17:35 OKAY, I'M SATISFIED. THINK OF IT IN TERMS OF HE LOVES 17:38 YOU SO MUCH THAT HE DOES NOT REJECT OR RECENT WHAT HE WENT 17:42 THROUGH BECAUSE YOU'RE WORTH IT. YOU ARE WORTH THAT SUFFERING TO 17:45 SAVE YOU TO BRING YOU BACK TO HIM TO GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY 17:48 TO HAVE A RIGHT TO THE TREE OF LIFE. 17:51 HE WENT THRAUL THAT FOR YOU. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO 17:55 BE CONTEMPLATED DAILY AND YOUR HEART WILL OVERFLOW WITH LOVE 18:00 WHEN YOU REALIZE THAT DEPTH OF SUFFERING THAT WAS DONE ON YOUR 18:04 BEHALF AND HE'S SAYING, OKAY. WORTH IT. 18:07 >> AMAZING THING IS HE'S NOT SURE THAT IT WAS SUCCESSFUL. 18:12 WHEN JESUS ASCENDS INTO HEAVEN THE ANGELS ERUPT IN PRAISE AND 18:16 JESUS LOOKS HIM IN THE EYE AND TELLS HIM NO AND HE PRESSES INTO 18:19 THE FATHER AND HE HAS ONE QUESTION, WAS IT ENOUGH? 18:23 WAS IT ENOUGH? HE HAD TO KNOW. 18:26 WHEN THE FATHER TELLS HIM YES, THEN JESUS WILL ACCEPT IT AND 18:30 ACCEPT THE PRAISE. BUT NOTHING WAS MORE IMPORTANT 18:32 TO JESUS THAN IN THAT MOMENT KNOWING WAS THIS ENOUGH TO BRING 18:37 THEM HOME? BECAUSE YOU MATTER THAT MUCH TO 18:40 JESUS. I THINK IT's AMAZING. 18:43 YOU SEE THAT THE ANGLE WE'RE TAKING IN PREPARATION FOR THE 18:47 COMING OF THE LORD. NOT SO MUCH DO THIS AND DO THAT. 18:51 AS MUCH AS A CONTEMPLATION OF THE SACRIFICE MADE IN YOUR 18:56 BEHALF AND APPRECIATION FOR WHAT CHRIST HAS DONE. 19:02 GRATITUDE -- HOW GRATEFULNESS FOR THAT SACRIFICE PREPARES YOU 19:09 BECAUSE IT STRENGTHENS YOUR PREEXISTING CONDITION, A TERM WE 19:13 USED BEFORE, A FUNCTIONAL WORKING LOVE RELATIONSHIP WITH 19:16 CHRIST. IT WILL BE THAT RELATIONSHIP 19:18 THAT WILL KEEP YOU IN THE ARCH MUCH TEMPTATION AND HELP YOU 19:23 PREPARE FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD. 19:25 AGAIN, MAY I ENCOURAGE YOU TO WRITE US AND LET US KNOW HOW YOU-WOULD SPEND YOUR DAY IF YOU KNEW 19:31 YOU WERE AT THE PENULTIMATE DAY BEFORE THE COMING OF THE LORD 19:34 AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST JUST ONE DAY BEFORE. 19:37 HERE IT IS. HOW WOULD YOU LIVE TODAY IF YOU 19:40 KNEW THAT CHRIST WAS COMING TOMORROW OR THAT THIS DAY WAS 19:45 YOUR LAST DAY? HOW WOULD YOU PROSECUTE THIS 19:48 PARTICULAR DAY IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT THIS IS YOUR LAST DAY. 19:51 THERE WILL BE NO MORE DAY AND CHRIST IS COMING TOMORROW. 19:54 HOW DO YOU LIVE THIS DAY? PLEASE WRITE US AND WE'LL READ 19:58 THEM. I THINK WE HAVE ONE MORE. 19:59 YOU GOT ONE MORE. JOHNNY, YOU GOT ONE MORE? 20:02 >> LET's TAKE ANOTHER ROUND. THIS IS MILDRED. 20:05 AND SHE SAYS, I WOULD SPEND THOSE LAST FEW HOURS VISITING 20:11 FAMILY AND FRIENDS TELLING THEM OF THE LOVE OF GOD AND WHAT 20:14 JESUS DID TO SAVE ME. TELL OF HIS PROMISES, PRAYING 20:18 THAT THOSE WHO HAVE NOT YET ACCEPTED HIS GRACE ALTHOUGH NEW 20:26 IF THEY DID NOT GIVE THEIR HEART TO HIM OVER THE YEARS GOD FORBID 20:31 IT MIGHT BE TOO LATE. WE'RE JUST READING YOUR 20:45 THOUGHTS. >> I DON'T KNOW IF WE NEED TO 20:46 CHANGE THE YES A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE I SEE SOME PEOPLE HAVE 20:49 LOVE FOR OTHERS AND WANT TO COMMUNICATE THE MESSAGE OF 20:53 SALVATION TO OTHERS. >> WHICH IS WHY I'M NOT 20:55 COMMENTING ON THEM. THAT's WHAT IS IN YOUR HEART TO 20:58 DO THEN THAT's WHAT YOU SHOULD DO. 21:02 >> GREETINGS IN JESUS NAME. I WOULD BE MORE AGGRESSIVE AND 21:06 PERSISTENT IN SPREADING THE GOSPEL ON FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE AND 21:11 AT WORK AND IN THE COMMUNITY AND EVERYWHERE. 21:15 THAT's WHAT ANTON NET WOULD DO. PRAISE GOD. 21:19 >> IF I KNEW THAT JESUS WAS COMING BACK TOMORROW I WOULD 21:23 CONTINUE TO WORSHIP HIM SINGING TO HIM THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT 21:26 KNOWING MY FAITHING SOLID AND I COULD ADD NOTHING OF MYSELF 21:28 BECAUSE HE PROMISED THE WORK HE HAS BEGUN IN ME IS FINISHED. 21:51 HOW WOULD YOU LIVE THAT LAST DAY. 21:52 >> EVEN IF IT WAS YOUR LAST WEEK OR LAST MONTH OR YEAR. 21:55 WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY KNOWING THAT JESUS CHRIST IS 21:59 GOING TO BE COMING VERY, VERY SOON. 22:02 >> BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS WE KNOW NOT THE HOUR AND ANY DAY COULD 22:06 BE OUR LAST DAY. THIS IS TRUE. 22:09 >> LITTLE HINT WE'RE SENDING OUT. 22:17 AND WE DO NOT KNOW. GOD WILL REVEAL HIMSELF IN HIS 22:34 MAJESTY. VERY SOON THE WICKEDNESS OF THE 22:37 WORLD WILL HAVE REACHED ITS LIMIT AND IN THE DAY -- AND AS 22:41 IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, GOD WILL POUR OUT HIS JUDGMENT. 22:46 THAT's COMING FROM TERRIBLE REPORTS WE HEAR OF MURDERS AND 22:51 ROBBIES AND RAIL WAY ACCIDENTS AND DEEDS OF VIOLENCE TELL THE 22:55 STORY THAT THE END OF ALL THINGS IS AT HAND. 22:58 JUST NOW WE NEED TO BE PREPARING FOR THE LORD's SECOND COMING. 23:15 THE STORY IS A VERY CONVICTING STORY WHEN IT COMES TO 23:18 PREPARATION FOR THE SECOND COMING. 23:22 BECAUSE LOT WAS A MAN OF RIGHT US NEWS. 23:47 HE SAYS, YOU'RE NOT STAYING IN THE ALLEYWAYS AND YOU'RE STAYING 23:48 AT MY HOUSE. COME TO MY PLACE BECAUSE THIS 23:51 PLACE IS A MESS AND HE KNEW IT.-pWHEN HE BRINGS HIM THERE AND THEN THE POPLE COME AND ASK FOR 23:56 THEIR UNHOLY REQUEST HE STRIKES THEM WITH BLINDNESS AND HE SAYS, 23:59 YOU NEED TO -- THE ANGELS TELL HIM GET OUT OF HERE AND GET OUT 24:02 OF HERE NOW. THERE'S ALMOST A SENSE OF NOT 24:05 WANTING TO GO BECAUSE HE'S POURED HIS ENTIRE LIFE INTO A 24:09 PLACE -- WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HOW TO LIVE IN PREPARATION FOR THE 24:12 SECOND COMING IS THE REASON I'M GOING THIS DIRECTION. 24:14 HE'S LIVING HIS LIFE IN A WAY THAT HE DOESN'T WANT TO LET 24:17 GO -- ALL OF HIS LIFE IS TIED INTO A PLACE. 24:35 HE'S BREATHING REALLY HARD AND HE SAYS, YOU GUYS GOT TO GET OUT 24:38 OF HERE. THIS PLACE IS A DISASTER AND GOING DOWN AND IT's 24:40 A MESS. YOU HAVE TO LEAVE. 24:42 IT'S WICKED AND IT's EVIL. AND THE TEXT LITERALLY SAYS TO 24:46 HIS SONS IN LAW HE SEEMED TO BE JOKING. 24:48 YOU NEVER WONDER WHY? WELL, JUST IMAGINE. 24:51 THESE ARE THE THOUGHTS THAT GO THROUGH MY MIND ON WHAT WENT 24:55 THROUGH THEIR MIND. YOU KNOW YOU DIDN'T SEEM TO BE 25:05 WHY DO YOU LIVE HERE AND WHY DID YOU RAISE YOUR CHILDREN HERE. 25:08 AND IT's THIS CONVICTING LINE BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT 25:12 ONCE WE START TO SEE THE MARK OF THE BEAST CRISIS START TO BEGIN 25:16 AND WE START TO SEE AN IMAGE DIRECTED AT THE BEAST AND ALL 25:19 THIS STUFF HAPPENING THEN WE'LL GET SERIOUS AND LIVE DIFFERENTLY 25:22 AND DO SOMETHING DIFFERENTLY AND WE OURSELVES WILL WANT TO LEAVE 25:27 SODOM WHICH HE WRESTLED WITH AND HIS WIFE WAS LOST. 25:30 BUT TWO WE ALSO THINK THAT WE'RE GOING TO BRING OTHER PEOPLE WITH 25:44 US. WE HAVE NO TKPWAEURB TEE WE WANT 25:47 TO LEAVE AND NO GURANTEE WE'LL BE ABLE TO BRING PEOPLE WITH US. 25:50 >> THAT's THE BIG THING. >> BECAUSE YOUR WITESS WILL BE 25:57 NULL AND VOID. YOU'RE HERE WITH ME. 25:58 EVEN IF YOU ARE CONVICTED IN YOUR HEART YOUR WITNESS WILL BE 26:04 DULLED BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN LIVING HERE THE WHOLE TIME. 26:07 >> AND THAT CORRUPTING INFLUENCE NEVER LEFT HIS 26:17 DAUGHTERS. THE LEGACY THAT HE LEAVES ARE 26:21 THE THEY'RE JUST A CURSE TO THE 26:25 WORLD. AND THERE IS ANOTHER THING WHERE 26:27 HE SAYS THAT HE CAME INTO SODOM AN EXCEEDINGLY WEALTHY MAN AND 26:35 HE LEFT WITH NOTHING. IF WE'RE ALL WAITING UNTIL 26:37 SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS LATER 0 SOME LARGE CATASTROPHIC EVENT TO 26:43 LIVE DIFFERENTLY LATER IT's NOT IN OUR BEST INTEREST TO HAVE 26:45 THAT MENTALITY IS THE POINT. IT WOULD BE GOOD TO MAKE THE 27:06 TRANSITIONS NOW AS OPPOSED TO LATER. 27:14 IF HE GAVE ALL THE LEAST I CAN DO IS GIVE WHAT I HAVE HERE IN 27:18 NOW AND THAT's WHAT MARY DID AT THE SEAT OF JESUS. 27:24 SHE DID EVERYTHING SHE HAD AND SIMON FORGOT WHERE HE CAME FROM 27:26 AND THAT's WHY HE DID NOTHING NOR JESUS IN THAT MOMENT. 27:30 SHE APPRECIATE THE CROSS AND RESPONDED IMMEDIATELY. 27:35 >> NO MTTER HOW SINFUL SIN IS, YOU CAN GET ACCUSTOMED TO IT. 27:43 AFTER THE CAPTIVITY AND THE DECREE WAS SIGNED 457 BC, THERE 27:47 WERE JEWS WHO DIDN'T WANT TO GO BACK. 27:49 WHAT AN ARE WE DOING BACK THERE FOR? 27:52 AND THEY WERE. DANIEL HAD ACCLIMATED HIMSELF -- 27:57 THAT's THE WRONG TERM. THE 4 SEPARATE KINGS ALL SAW IN 28:02 DANIEL A GODLY AND THAT TRANSPORTED ITSELF OR 28:05 TRANSFERRED ITSELF INTO DECENT TREATMENT OF THE JEWISH CAPTAIN 28:09 BECAUSE OF THE RESPECT FOR THEIR LEADER. 28:12 SO THEY WERE DOING GOOD. THEY HAD GOTTEN GOOD GOVERNMENT 28:15 POSITIONS AND CIVIL SERVE SRAPTS. 28:17 WHY ARE WE LEAVING THIS TO GO BACK TO NOTHING AND BEGIN 28:20 BUILDING AGAIN. NO MATTER HOW BAD THEY ARE, IF 28:23 YOU STAY IN THERE LONG ENOUGH IT's GOING TO WEAR ON AND GOING 28:26 TO WEAR YOU DOWN TO YOUR RESISTANCE. 28:29 THEY DON'T WANT TO COME OUT. BECAUSE WE'RE DOING OKAY. 28:32 AND FOR YOU TO STAND UP NOW AFTER LIVING WITH US IN THIS, 28:36 SEEMS KIND OF COUNTERFEIT. IT DOES SEEM KIND OF 28:52 COUNTERFEIT. YOU GOT TO HAVE A CONSTANT 28:55 VIBRANT LIVING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD AND THAT IS YOUR ONLY 28:58 BULWARK AGAINST SIN AND EVIL. >> AS WERE YOU TALKING HERE, I'M 29:04 REMINDED HAVE SECOND CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 3 AND VERSE 18. 29:16 OUR CHANGE INTO THAT IMAGE AND REALLY WE PARAPHRASE BY 29:26 BEHOLDING WE BECOME KHAEUFPBLGT EVENTUALLY HE WAS GOING DO WHAT 29:37 THEY WERE DOING. AND SO, IF YOU CANNOT CHANGE 29:42 YOUR CONDITION BECAUSE OF SOME CIRCUMSTANCE THAT HAS TO KEEP 29:46 YOU THERE, THEN YOU MUST MAINTAIN THAT CLOSE WALK WITH 29:49 THE LORD. BEHOLD THE LORD MORE THAN YOU 29:54 BEHOLD EVIL BECAUSE THAT WHICH YOU BEHOLD THAT's WHAT YOU 29:58 CONTEMPLATE ON AND THAT's WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE CHANGED INTO 30:01 AND THAT's WHY THE DANGER OF NOWADAYS THERE'S THIS THING THAT 30:06 WASN'T THERE BEFORE AND I HEARD THIS TERM BINGE WATCHING. 30:13 PEOPLE SIT DOWN AND THEY WATCH A SEASON OF TELEVISION SLOWS AND 30:21 THESE THINGS. THAT's A LOT OF TIME SPENT IN 30:28 BEHOLDING SOMETHING THAT SOMETHING THAT ISN'T GOOD FOR 30:32 YOU. I WOULD ENCOURAGE US IN THE 30:38 PREPARATION OF THE LORD TAKE AN INVENTORY. 30:40 WHAT AM I GIVING MORE TIME TO AND WHAT EFFECT IS THIS HAVING 30:44 UPON YOU ME? IF YOU'RE WATCHING 3ABN PRAISE 30:47 THE LORD. PRAISE THE LORD. 30:49 IF YOU'RE LISTENING TO ABN PRAISE THE LORD. 30:53 BECAUSE THAT WILL HAVE A GOOD EFFECT UPON YOU. 30:57 WE'RE LIVING IN A TIME WHERE BEHOLDING EVENING BECOMES NOT SO 31:05 BAD AFTER ALL. >> YOU LOOK AT IT AND IF YOU 31:08 BECOME -- FIRST OF ALL IT WILL LOSE ITS AVERSION TO YOU. 31:13 SIN BECOMES THE LESS SINFUL AND THEN YOU BECOME AT PEACE WITH IT 31:18 AND THEN IF YOU STAY THERE LONG ENOUGH YOU ACTUALLY LIKE IT. 31:25 THAT's THE NATURAL PROGRESSION. THEN YOU JUSTIFY IT. 31:27 >> THE HARD PART OF THIS IS IT's REFERRED TO A RIGHTEOUS MAN AND 31:36 YET HE HAD THIS IT WAS LIKE A 51-49 SPLIT. 31:41 IT WAS BECAUSE HE WAS COMFORTABLE AND WE WERE TOLD HE 31:44 WAS SAVED SO AS BY FIRE. IN SHORT BARELY. 31:48 GOD DOESN'T WANT THAT FOR US. GOD WANTS TO HAVE A LIFE AND 31:51 LIFE MORE ABUNDANTLY AND EXPERIENCE THAT ISN'T JUST THIS 31:55 NAIL BITER AND I HOPE MAYBE IF I JUST -- GOD WANTS US TO HAVE A 32:00 SECURE EXPERIENCE WITH HIM BUT THAT COMES BY BEING COMPLETETY 32:04 SUR RENNED HERRED TO HIM AND SURRENDER IS A LOGICAL RESPONSE 32:08 TO THE LOVE OF GOD AND NOT THIS LEGALISM AND SELF RIGHTEOUS 32:17 PURSUIT. IF WE DON'T START THERE IT 32:23 DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. WE'RE FOCUSING ON MAKING CHRIST 32:34 THE CENTER TO MAKE AN APPEAL TO SOMEONE NO LONGER SOUNDS LIKE 32:38 HARDNESS OR LEGALISM BUT MAKES SENSE AND A FAR MORE DESIRABLE 32:44 ALTERNATIVE THAT THEY WOULD WANT TO RESPOND TO. 32:55 THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS TO APPROACH PREPARATION FOR THE 32:58 COMING OF THE LORD. WE'RE CMING FROM IT OR RATHER 33:01 COMING TO IT WITH THE IDEA THAT THE BEST PREPARATION YOU CAN DO 33:05 FOR THE SECOND COMING IS PRE PEARING EACH DAY BY SOLIDIFYING 33:09 YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD. SO THEN, WHATEVER COMES IT's 33:15 LIKE A GENRAL ANTI-BIOTIC. WHATEVER BUG YOU GET IT's GOING 33:19 TO TAKE CARE OF IT. THE REASON THAT THE DOCTORS 33:25 SPEND SO MUCH TIME IN DIAGNOSIS IS THAT THEY GIVE YOU THE RIGHT 33:28 MEDICINE FOR WHAT YOU GOT. IF YOU GOT A PREEXISTING 33:38 CONDITION FOR JESUS CYST IF YOU'RE IN CHRIST JESUS AND 33:44 CHRIST JESUS IS IN YOU YOU CAN BE SUCCESSFUL IN YOUR FIGHT. 33:49 SO WHEN IT'S PEOPLE GOING TO PARTIES AND ALL THIS KIND OF 33:52 STUFF. IF 82 YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS IT 33:55 SIMPLY IDENTIFIES YOU MEDICATION. 33:57 YOU DON'T NEED A BUNCH OF PILLS. YOU ONLY GOT ONE, JESUS. 34:03 OUR APPROACH IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT. 34:06 WHAT WE ARE DOING IS TRYING TO GIVE YOU TOOLS FOR ESTABLISHING 34:09 A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD WHICH WILL ALLOW YOU TO BE KEPT 34:12 STRONG AND GIVE YOU VICTORY FROM WHATEVER YO HAVE TO FACE. 34:16 BECAUSE EVERYBODY's TRIAL -- I READ SOMETHING THE OTHER DAY AND 34:19 I WISH I HAD IT WITH ME. SHE SAID, SATAN DOES NOT TEMPT 34:27 CAPRICIOUSLY. HE TARGET TEMPTS. 34:29 HE KNOWS JOHNNY AND SAYS, THIS IS GOING TO WORK WITH JOHNNY AND 34:34 NOT GOING TO WORK WITH DEE SO I'LL DO THIS. 34:36 SO HE'S STUDYING YOU. THE LORD KNOWS THOSE AND SO DOES 34:55 THE DEVIL AND HE KNOWS HOW TO PUSH THE BUTTONS. 35:01 SO THE DEVIL IS MANY, MANY THINGS AND NOT STUPID. 35:05 HE HAS STUDIED MAN. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO BE 35:18 SUCCESSFUL WHATEVER HE SENDS AND THROWS YOUR WAY. 35:20 >> IN MATTHEW CHAPTER 24 THERE IS AN ELEMENT THAT CONTINUES AND 35:25 THERE SEVERAL TIMES WHERE JESUS IS TALKING ABOUT THEY KNEW NOT 35:35 AND JESUS -- THERE'S A MESSAGE OF PREPARATION THERE THEY HAD A 36:35 CALENDAR. EACH DAY YOU WOULD CROSS OFF A 36:37 DAY AND THEY WOULD GET YOU CLOSER TO THAT -- THAT DAY WOULD 36:41 BE ONE AND THEN ZERO THAT YOU KNOW YOU'RE GOING HOME BECAUSE 36:44 YOUR TIME THERE IS OVER. AND I REMEMBER THE TIMES WHEN 36:49 YOU WERE GIVEN A TASK TO DO THAT WASN'T VERY PLEASANT. 36:52 GO OVER THERE BY SUCH AND SUCH AND BUILDING AND EVERYBODY PICK 36:56 UP TRASH. GO OVER THERE AND CLEAN THIS AND 36:58 CLEAN THAT. THERE WERE THINGS YOU WOULD SAY, 37:00 I'VE BEEN -- YOU WOULD EXPRESS I'VE BEEN IN THIS THING IN THIS 37:05 ARMY 12, 14 YEARS I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M STILL PICKING UP 37:09 TRASH. ANYWAY, THEY WERE OUT THERE 37:12 RAKING AND PICKING UP TRASH, CIGARETTE BUTTS OR WHATEVER IT 37:16 IS AND SOMEBODY's FRUSTRATED AND TALKING ABOUT, I CAN'T BELIEVE 37:19 WE'RE DOING THIS. AND I SAID, WHY AREN'T YOU 37:22 FRUSTRATED AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY WOULD DO? 37:29 I'LL TELL YOU WHAT THAT MEANS. THAT MEANS I'M SHORT. 37:34 I JUST HAVE THIS TIME AND I'M GOING HOME. 37:40 THIS THAT I'M DOING DOESN'T BOTHER BECAUSE IT's GOING TO BE 37:43 OVER SOON. HOW's IT GOING. 37:46 THAT's HOW YOU WOULD DO AND YOU WOULD KNOW, I GOT YOU. 37:49 AND SO PEOPLE WOULD LOOK -- AS SOON AS THEY GOT TO 100 DAYS 37:54 THEY STARTED, PHAING THE DAYS OFF. 37:57 THE ANTICIPATION, JESUS CHRIST IS COMING SOON. 38:04 WE'RE LIKE THIS NOW THAT WE KNOW JESUS CHRIST IS COMING SOON. 38:07 WHATEVER THE DEVIL THROWS OUR WAY, KEEP LOOKING TO JESUS. 38:11 KEEP LOOKING TO JESUS. IT'S WORKING FOR US A FAR MORE 38:21 ETERNAL WAY OF GLORY. FOR WE LOOK NOT AT THE THINGS 38:25 THAT ARE SEEN BUT THE THINGS THAT ARE UNSEEN. 39:11 ONE OF THE THINGS ABOUT WALKING MUM PWHREU WITH GOD, IT ALLOWS 39:15 YOU TO NAVIGATE AND NEGOTIATE A LOT OF THE STUFF THAT COMES YOUR-WAY. 39:33 IF I'M NOT OFFENDED I DON'T HAVE TO CONSUME TRYING TO GET BACK OR 39:40 GET EVEN WITH YOU. THE FACT THAT WE HAVE HEEN IN 39:53 OUR VIEW ALLOWS ME TO DEAL WITH A LOT OF THE STUFF THAT COMES MY 39:58 WAY OF PEOPLE WILL SAY THINGS ABOUT YOU AND PEOPLE GOING TO 40:01 TREAT YOU WRONG AND MISTREAT YOU AND PEOPLE WHO DISAPPOINT YOU. 40:04 BUT I CAN WEATHER THAT BECAUSE I KNOW THAT's PART AND PARCEL OF 40:07 MY WALK WITH THE LORD. JUST AS CHRIST WILL SAY AND HAS 40:12 SAID AND IS SAYING I I'M SATISFIED. 40:17 BECAUSE MY GOAL WAS TO GET THESE PEOPLE SAVED. 40:19 WHEN I LOOK AT WHAT I'VE HAD TO GO THROUGH I THINK THE SUFFERING 40:24 WAS WORTHY AND WORTH WHAT I HAD TO GO THROUGH TO GET THEM SAVED. 40:36 SO IF GET AN ARROW OVER HERE, I'LL LAY DOWN AND BLEED A WHILE 40:40 AND I'LL GET BACK UP AND KEEP ON WALKING. 40:43 IF SOMETHING COMES OVER HERE I'LL PROCESS THAT AND I'M NOT 40:45 GOING TO GO RUNNING A THAFR. BECAUSE MY TKPOEL IS GOING THIS 40:48 WAY. I'M HEADING HOME. 40:52 IN STUFF IS NOISE AND FAKE NEWS AND NOT THE REAL DEAL. 40:56 MY GOAL IS THERE. SO I'M WALKING HUMBLY WITH MY 40:59 GOD AND THAT KEEPS ME TO A LOT OF THE STUFF AND FIERY DARK 41:03 THAT's ON MY WAY >> THERE IS A THOUGHT -- THERE 41:05 ARE SOME PEOPLE THAT SEEM LIKE THESE PAIR GONES OF FAITH AND WE 41:09 WONDER IF I COULD BE LIKE THEM. THEY'RE LIVING -- THEY LIVED 41:15 EXAMPLES FOR US ON SIMPLER SCENARIOS OF LAW BEING DECREED 41:22 AND LIVES ARE AT STAKE. WE WONDER HOW WAS IT THEY BECOME 41:25 THESE ROCK STARS IN THAT ONE MOMENT. 41:27 YOU JUST THINK HOW DID THAT GUY GO THIS IS TALKING ABOUT DANIEL 41:56 SPECIFICALLY IN DANIEL 6. FROM THE STORY WE MAY LEARN IN 41:59 SEASONS OF TRIAL AND GLOOM A GOD's CHILDREN SHOULD BE JUST 42:03 WHAT THEY WERE WHEN THEIR PROSPECTS WERE BRIGHT WITH HOPE 42:05 AND SURROUNDINGS ALL THEY COULD DESIRE. 42:08 LESS LISTEN THOUGH. DANIEL IN THE LION's DEN WAS THE 42:14 SAME WHO STOOD AS THE PROFIT OF THE MOST HIGH. 42:17 A MAN WHOSE HEART STAYED UPON GOD WILL BE THE SAME IN THE HOUR 42:21 OF HIS GREATEST TRIAL AS HE IS IN PROSPERITY. 42:23 WHEN THE LIGHT IN FARE OF LIGHT OF MAN BE UPON HIM. 42:26 I LOVE THIS IDEA THAT WE THINK THEY BECAME SOMEONE DIFFERENT 42:29 ALL OF A SUDDEN. THEY DIDN'T. 42:32 IN THAT MOMNT THEY WERE THE SAME PERSON THEY WERE YESTERDAY 42:34 WHEN THEY HAD TO PAY THEIR TAXES AND BE HONEST ABOUT IT. 42:36 THEY WERE THE SAME PERSON THAT DID THEIR HOMEWORK ON TIME. 42:39 THEY WERE THE SAME PERSON WHO SPOKE RESPECTFULLY TO THE PERSON 42:42 WHO WAS MEAN TO THEM. HOW IS IT WE PREPARE TO -- IT's 42:48 NOT BY SEEING SOMEONE DIFFERENT BUT SUR RENNED HERRING TO GOD 42:52 NOW. SO WE SHOULDN'T BE WORRIED ABOUT 42:55 WHETHER A WILL GOD WITH ME THEN. WE SHOULD WORRY ABOUT WHAT WE 43:02 ARE DOING NOW. >> YOU JUST SAID SOMETHING AND 43:21 YOU DROPPED A HEAVY BOMB RIHT THERE. 43:25 YOU REALLY DID. ABOUT THEN AND NOW AND IT's A 43:27 CLUE TO WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR AND I HOPE THAT OUR WELL DOES 43:33 NOT DRY UP. THE QUESTION AGAIN IS IF YOU 43:35 KNEW THIS WAS YOUR LAST DAY AND CHRIST WAS COMING TOMORROW HOW 43:39 WOULD YOU SPEND THIS DAY IN THE LIGHT THAT THE IS YOUR LAST DAY 43:43 AND WEIGH ON THAT PLEASE. LIVE. 43:52 WE WANT TO READ THEM AND HEAR WHAT's ON YOUR MIND. 43:58 DEE JUST SLIPPED SOMETHING IN ON YOU AND YOU MAY HAVE CAUGHT IT 44:01 AND YOU MAY NOT. WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK TO IT A 44:03 LITTLE BIT LATER. BUT HE JUST SAID SOMETHING. 44:06 HE JUST REALLY CONNECTED A LOT OF DOTS FOR YOU HERE. WE'LL TRY 44:23 TO GET TO THEM IN THE LAST QUARTER OF AN AN HOUR THAT 44:27 REMAINS TO US. ALL RIGHT. 44:30 >> I'M SO GRATEFUL THAT TE LORD KNOWS THAT's GOING TO HAPPEN 44:32 TOMORROW AND THE NEXT DAY AND THE DAY AFTER. 44:39 BECAUSE OF THIS THE LORD WANTS TO PREPARE US. 44:42 WHEN JESUS SAID TO PETER PETER, PETER, SATAN HAS ASKED FOR YOU. 44:56 HE TAKES US THROUGH EXPERIENCES AND SITUATIONS THAT ARE GOING TO 45:00 PREPARE US FOR TOMORROW AND THE NEXT DAY AND THE TRIALS COMING 45:06 UP. BECAUSE YOU MAY NOT BE PREPARED 45:08 TO FACE WHAT's GOING TO HAPPEN TO YOU IN A MONTH, BUT THE LORD 45:12 WANTS TO PREPARE YOU FOR THAT. THIS IS NOT A -- GOD IS NOT THIS 45:39 WAY. WELL, LET's SEE WHAT IS GOING TO 45:41 HAPPEN TO MY CHILD TODAY. HE KNOWS WHAT HE GOING TO HAPPEN 45:48 TO YOU. SO GOD IS HELPING US EVERY DAY 46:14 LEADING US TO SOLIDIFY OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM TO THE 46:18 POINT THAT WE WILL TRUST HIM NO MATTER WHAT WILL HAPPEN. 46:20 >> AMEN. AMEN. 46:22 AND ALL OF THE PUNISHMENT THAT WE SEE AROUND US THOUGH AS 46:27 HORRIFIC CAN BE, THEY'RE STILL FILTERED THROUGH A LENS OF GRACE 46:32 AND MERCY. HE'S TAPPING ON OUR SHOULDER TO 46:34 GET OUR ATTENTION AND IF YOU ARE A HEAVY SLEEPER WELL THEN HE'S 46:39 GOING TO SPEAK A LITTLE LOUDER. YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR ATTENTION 46:45 ARRESTED FROM THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD SO YOU'RE NOT CON FORMED 46:49 TO THIS WORLD. YOU ARE TRANSFORMED AND HE NEEDS 46:51 TO GET YOUR ATTENTION. SO WE'VE GOT TO TURN UP THE 46:54 VOLUME. ONCE HE GETS YOUR ATTENTION THEN 46:56 CAN HE SPEAK SOFTLY IN YOUR EAR WHICH IS WHAT HE WANTS TO DO ALL 46:59 THE TIME. YOU GO THE TO YOUR ATTENTION 47:05 FIRST. THE CARNAGE THAT WE SEE AS BAD 47:08 AS IT IS IS STILL MINGLED WITH MERCY BECAUSE GOD IS TRYING TO 47:11 GET OUR -- YOU DON'T WANT TO GET TOO COMFORTABLE DOWN HERE 47:15 BECAUSE THIS WORLD IS PASSING AWAY EXONE DAY WILL BE 47:23 DESTROYED. DON'T HAVE A NAME. 47:28 BRIDGET. I RECENTLY BEEN TRYING TO FOCUS 47:31 LESS ON MY DESIRE TO GO TO HEEN AND FOCUS ON JESUS. 47:36 BEING ABLE TO COME IN HIS GLORY AND RECEIVE THAT REWARD HE 47:44 SUFFERED SO MUCH FOR. IF I KNEW HE WHAT YOU COULD 47:46 MANYING TOMORROW I THINK I WOULD BE HAVING A PRAISE PARTY. 47:54 PRAISING HIM FOR ALL HE HAS DONE FOR ME AND HOW HE HAS PATIENTLY 47:59 WAITEDUWAITED FOR HIS REWARD WHILE SAOERBGING THE LORD. 48:04 I GOT A GREAT RESPECT FOR MY WIFE. 48:07 YOU KNOW, THIS IDEA OF I THINKING WHAT JESUS DID. 48:10 I HAD PROSTATE CANCER IN 2011 AND THEN JUST COUPLE YEARS LATER 48:17 WE HAD BYPASS AND OPEN HART SURGERY. 48:21 WHEN YOU ARE IN THIS I'M THE GUY AND I CAN DO THIS AND YOU GET 48:26 OLDER AND THINGS BEGIN TO HAPPEN AND YOU REALIZE YOU'RE NOT AN 48:30 INVINCIBLE AS YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE. 48:31 I DEVELOPED A GREAT LOVE -- NOT A GREAT LOVE BUT INCREASED LOVE 48:35 AND RESPECT FOR MY WIFE BECAUSE SHE HAD TO DO FOR ME THINGS I 48:38 COULD NOT DO FOR MYSELF AND SOME OF THEM WERE KIND OF YUCKY BUT 48:43 OUT OF LOVE SHE NEVER COMPLAINED AND NEVER SAID ANYTHING SHE JUST 48:48 DID AND SOMETIMES I'D RATHER DO THEM FOR MYSELF. 48:58 LOOKING BAG IT GAVE ME A GREAT APPRECIATION FOR HER. 49:02 PART OF THE MARRIAGE IS FOR BETTER FOR WORSE. 49:06 WE KIND OF WENT THRUGH SOME OF THE WORSE BECAUSE OF THE -PHYSICAL STUFF. 49:10 WHEN SHE PUTS HER COLD FEET ON ME AT NIGHT IT DOESN'T BOTHER 49:20 ME. YOU REALIZE SHE DID THIS FOR ME 49:22 I CAN TAKE THE COLD FEET. NO PROBLEM THAT KIND OF THING. 49:25 AND IT's THE SAME WITH YOUR LOVE FOR CHRIST. 49:28 AS YOU REALIZE WHAT HE'S GONE THROUGH FOR YOU, THERE IS A 49:34 LEVEL OF APPRECIATION AND AFFECTION THAT IS INCREASED 49:36 BECAUSE YOU REALIZE THE SUFFERING AND I SAY THIS, HE 49:42 COULD HAVE PULLED OUT. HE COULD HAVE PULLED OUT OR HE 49:46 COULD HAVE FAILED. BUT HE DID NEITHER BECAUSE HE 49:49 HAD THE GOAL IN MIND AND THE GOAL WAS TO BE AT ONE WITH US 49:52 AND TO BRING US HOME WITH HIM. SO THERE IS A LOVE THAT CAN COME 49:55 WHEN YOU CONTEMPLATE THAT KIND OF THING. 49:57 WHEN I THINK ABOUT WHAT E-- >> YOU SAID SOMETHING THAT's THE 50:04 CONCEPT THAT IS DIFFICULT FOR SOME PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND. 50:12 S JESUS WENT THROUGH THE LIFE WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF FAILING 50:17 PER SE. BECAUSE YOU LOOK AT THE DEVIL. 50:21 I DON'T THINK THE DEVIL WASTES ANY MOMENT. 50:32 HE MADE THE LIFE OF CHRIST A TORTURE TO BE ALIVE I WOULD SAY 50:36 BECAUSE THE TEMPTATIONS THAT JESUS ENDURED ARE FAR MORE 50:41 DIFFICULT THAN WE CAN IMAGINE. WE ARE ONLY GIVEN THE GLIMPSE WE 50:46 LOOK AT THREE TEMPTATIONS THAT HE'S PRESENTED TO IN THE 50:51 BEGINNING OF HIS MINISTRY. BUT BEFORE COMING INTO MINISTRY 50:55 AND AFTER THOSE TEMPTATIONS THE BIBLE SAYS AND THE DEVIL LEAVE I 51:01 THINK HIM FOR A WHILE. HE CAME BACK AS SOON AS 51:06 RECOVERED FROM THE DEFEAT BASICALLY. 51:08 AS SOON AS THE DEVIL RECOVERED HE WAS BACK ON JESUS TRACK 51:12 TRYING TO MAKE HIM FALL BUT JESUS LIVED A VICTORIOUS LIFE 51:17 FOR ME SO THAT I COULD BE SAVED AND THAT SHOULD EVER KEEP ME 51:24 GRATEFUL AND SAY AMAZING GRACE. >> WE'RE COMING DOWN TO OUR 51:29 LAST 5 MINUTES. I WANT YOU TO THINK OF A CLOSING 51:31 THOUGHT AS WE TRY TO PUT A LITTLE BOW ON THIS. 51:35 GOT SOMETHING FROM LITTLE MARIE HERE. SHE SAID IT WAS MY LAST 51:39 DAY AND I WAS GOING TO DIE I WOULD TALK TO MY FAMILY WHO ARE 51:44 NOT MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH AND NOT GIVEN THE HEART TO THE LORD 51:47 AND MAKE SURE MY THINGS ARE IN ORDER AND REMIND THOSE SIBLINGS 51:52 WHO HAVE NOT ACCPTED JESUS. IF I KNOW THAT CHRIST WAS COMING 51:57 I WOULD SEARCH MY HEART TO SEE IF EVERYTHING WAS RIGHT AND 52:02 THERE WERE ANY UNCONFESSED SINS TO MEET MY JESUS. 52:05 I WILL REMEMBER THAT IT's NOTHING I CAN DO TO BE SAVED BUT 52:10 THERE THE GRACE OF JESUS CHRIST. IN LOOKING AT THAT, A GOOD 52:14 FRIEND OF MINE TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A TIME WHEN ALL 3 52:17 BROTHERS WERE OUT OF THE CHURCH. TWO HAD COME BACK TO THE LORD 52:20 AFTER THE MOM HAD DIED AND IS THE LAST BROTHER DIDN'T WAN TO 52:24 HEAR TOO MUCH ABOUT IT. DUANE AND HIS OTHER BROTHERS 52:26 WENT TO THIS THIRD BROTHER's HOUSE AND THEY WERE TRYING TO 52:29 FIND A WAY TO BRING UP CHRIST AND THEY KNEW HE WHAT YOU GOING 52:33 TO REJECT EVERYTHING THAT THEY SAID. 52:36 SO THEY KEPT UP WITH THE IDEA AND GOD GAVE THEM THE IDEA TO 52:39 SAY, MOM DIED BEFORE WE CAME BACK TO THE LORD. 52:46 SO SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE TWO OF US. 52:49 WHEN WE GET TO HEAVEN AND MEET HER, ONE OF THE FIRST QUESTIONS 52:54 SHE'S GOING TO ASK IS WHERES YOUR BABY BROTHER. 52:59 WHAT DOWE TELL HER? YOU KNOW SHE'S GOING TO ASK 53:02 ABOUT YOU AND HOW MUCH SHE AGONIZED FOR YOU. 53:05 SHE'S GOING TO ASK WHAT DO WE TELL HER? 53:08 AND THAT DID IT. THAT DI IT. 53:10 WE GOT TO TELL HER SOMETHING. YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE THERE. 53:13 IT CAN'T BE HEAVEN WITHOUT YOU THERE. 53:15 THAT DID IT. THAT BROKE HIS HEART. 53:18 THE IDEA THAT WE'RE ALL GOING TO BE. 53:20 WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO BE? THAT KIND OF THING. 53:23 THE TRUTH IS IT's COMING BUT NO WAY TO GET AROUND IT. 53:27 CHRIST IS COMING SOON AND WE MUST BE READY. 53:32 JOHNNY, TAKE IT FIRST. >> I'M GOING TO READ -- IN 53:40 BETTER WORDS THIS DESIRE OF AGES PAGE 131. 53:45 IT SAYS NEVER CAN THE COST OFF OUR REDEMPTION BE REALIZED UNTIL 53:50 THE REDEEMED SHALL STAND WITH THE REDEEMER BEFORE THE THRONE 53:54 OF GOD. THEN AS THE GLORIES OF THE 53:57 ETERNAL HOME BURST UPON OUR SENSES, WE SHALL REMEMBER THAT 54:01 JESUS LEFT ALL THIS FOR US. THAT HE NOT ONLY BECAME IN EXILE 54:09 IN HEAENLY COURTS BUT FOR US TOOK THE RISK OF FAILURE AND 54:14 ETERNAL AND THEN WE SHALL CAST OUR CROWNS AT HIS FEET AND RAISE 54:17 THE SONG WORTHY IS THE LAMB THAT WAS SLAIN TO RECEIVE POWER AND 54:22 RICHES AND WISDOM AND STRENGTH AND HONOR AND GLORY AND 54:26 BLESSING. QUOTING OF COURSE REVELATION 54:28 CHAPTER 5 VERSE 12. SO I SAY, WHAT JESUS HAS DONE 54:34 FOR US SHOULD EVER BRING OUT PRAISE AND GLORY AND ALSO 54:40 EXPRESSIONS OF GOD's AMAZING -GRACE. >> AMEN. 54:45 DEE? >> IS I THINK YOU TALKED ABOUT 54:47 THE FACT TOUCHING ILLUSTRATION THAT HIS BROTHERS TOLD THEIR 54:50 BROTHER THAT HEAVEN WOULD NOT BE HEAVEN WITHOUT YOU. 54:53 THE MOST PRECIOUS THING THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT DROVE JESUS. 54:57 HE COULD NOT IMAGINE HEAVEN BEING WHAT HE WANTED IT TO BE IF 55:00 YOU DIDN'T HAVE AN OPTION TO BE THERE. 55:02 THAT's WHY THEY CREATED THE SET OF LOVE AND THAT's WHY HE'S 55:05 COMING AGAIN. THE WHOLE POINT OF THE SECOND 55:07 COMING IS WHEN HE DID AT THE FIRST COMING. 55:09 HE GAVE HIS LIFE FOR A LOST WORLD BECAUSE HE WANTS YOU. 55:13 SO THE WHOLE REASON HE'S COMING A SECOND TIME IS PICK UP WHAT HE 55:16 PAID FOR AND THAT's YOU. THE WHOLE POINT IS A MAT MOANAL 55:28 REUNION. AND THAT's WHAT TOUCHES AND 55:30 MOVES ME. >> I'VE GOT TO JUST PUT THIS IN. 55:34 SHE'S LISTENING ON AUSTRALIA RADIO. 55:37 SHE SAYS I'M LISTENING TO YOU WITH HEADPHONES ON WHILE I'M 55:43 VACUUMING MY HOUSE. GOD IS REALLY SPEAKING TO ME 55:46 THROUGH YOUR MESSAGE TODAY. I NOTICE THE PRESENCE OF GOD 55:49 THROUGH HIS SPIRIT. I'M JUST WHERE I WOULD CHOOSE TO 55:53 BE. LISTENING AND THINKING ABOUT 55:56 JESUS AND HIS INCREDIBLE LOVE AND SACRIFICE FOR ME. 55:59 WHAT I WOULD HOPE IS THAT MY LAST DAY WOULD BE SPENT PRETTY 56:02 MUCH LIKE EVERY DAY. I WOULD WANT EVERY DAY TO BE 56:05 LIVED IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT CHRIST IS COMING THE NEXT DAY OR 56:11 THE NEXT DAY OR THE NEXT DAY. I WOULD WANT EACH DAY TO HAVE 56:17 SURRENDERED MY LIFE TO THE WORLD SO MY LAST DAY WOULD NOT BE 56:21 RADICALLY DIFFERENT FROM EVERY DAY. 56:22 I WOULD WANT TO BE PRAYING EVERY DAY AND READING EVERY DAY AND 56:27 SURROUNDING MYSELF TO THE HOLY SPIRIT. 56:30 I DON'T WANT THAT DAY TO BE RADICALLY DIFFERENT THAN ANY 56:33 OTHER DAY. I WANT EACH DAY TO BE HE HAVE 56:35 LIVED IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT IT's COMING SOON AND SO CLOSE TO 56:39 CHRIST THAT IF MY NEXT DAY WAS MY LAST DAY, MY SOUL WOULD BE IN 56:44 LINE WITH MY SAVIOR. THAT's MY PRAYER FOR MY LIFE AND 56:48 CERTAINLY MY PRAYERS FORS YOU AND ALL OF US TO SEEK THE NAME 56:52 OF JESUS AND TO BE RIGHT WITH HIM WHEN HE COMES. 56:55 OUR TIME HAS FAST SLIPPED INTO ETERNITY AND ALLOW ME TO WISH 57:00 YOU GRACE AND PEACE THROUGH OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. 57:04 SEE YOU AGAIN BYE BYE AND GOD BLESS. |
