00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,640
Welcome to the Gospel Truth Project Podcast.

2
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,840
I'm your host, Jason, and I'm here with my co-host, Dylan.

3
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,160
What up?

4
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:16,160
Hello.

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,160
Awesome.

6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:22,040
Well, how are you doing today, Dylan?

7
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,040
I'm doing good.

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:27,040
I'm just having a good day.

9
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:28,040
Recorded on a Friday.

10
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,800
Nobody knows when we record and what days are because they come out different times.

11
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,040
But it's been a good day.

12
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:41,480
It's back in school now, which is nice.

13
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:46,200
That way it gives them some of the energy out.

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,760
You've tried to entertain me for a whole day.

15
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,000
You understand what it's like.

16
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,880
So that's just that.

17
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:58,000
I'm excited to hear what we're going to talk about because like I did to Jason last time,

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:04,560
he has not told me anything basically until five minutes ago.

19
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,880
So we'll see how this goes for me.

20
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,160
Well, actually, I'm going to add one to that.

21
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,880
I didn't know the topic until five minutes ago either.

22
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,680
I work with a lunatic.

23
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:17,680
Okay.

24
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:18,680
Okay.

25
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:24,160
Let me give back story because I told you I was going to say a story before we started.

26
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,280
And so here's the story.

27
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:31,960
I have been on Facebook forums.

28
00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:32,960
I have been on TikToks.

29
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:35,360
I've been talking to people in comments, etc.

30
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,880
A lot of communication, a lot of talking, a lot of like trying to share the gospel and

31
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,660
stuff like that.

32
00:01:41,660 --> 00:01:43,560
And I've been doing a lot of it.

33
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:50,320
And today, especially, it really hit me to where I had like 15 different topics I wanted

34
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,800
to talk about and discuss.

35
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,440
And we will get to those topics because they're on our list.

36
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:57,720
He always wants to.

37
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,440
He always wants to, you know, 15 different.

38
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,920
He's like, I can do this, this, this, this or that.

39
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,600
And I'm like, well, which one, Jason?

40
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,920
I need to write.

41
00:02:09,920 --> 00:02:13,280
And he tells me at least five options.

42
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:14,560
Yeah.

43
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:22,400
And then I was I've been listening to the Gospel Truth Project, GTP worship playlist

44
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,960
that I created on Spotify.

45
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,360
And it's got good music, guys.

46
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:28,360
It's good.

47
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:34,360
And I've been listening to it all morning and it's really been hitting me home, hitting

48
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:40,240
home for me where, you know, I was like, there's all those different things going on and all

49
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,040
this stuff that people are dealing with.

50
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,240
There's like we could talk about marriage.

51
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,600
We could talk about parenting.

52
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,640
We can talk about validity of the Bible.

53
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:49,600
We can talk about sarcasm.

54
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,600
Even like we talked about before.

55
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,320
We can even go and talk about LGBT stuff.

56
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,840
We can talk about like this thing after thing after thing after thing we could discuss and

57
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,480
talk about how we treat others, how we interact with others, how we should be talking, how

58
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:08,640
we should be acting, how do we actually live out a humility in humility and actually what

59
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:10,480
that looks like in real time.

60
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,280
And there's so many things that we could discuss.

61
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,600
And while I was kind of praying about it and walking around about it and I actually had

62
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,720
experience yesterday morning, which I'll explain that's the story I wanted to share.

63
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,720
But I was kind of pacing in the house and kind of thinking, what do I talk about?

64
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,400
What do we God, what do you want me and Dylan to talk about today?

65
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:31,800
And it's the pace guys.

66
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,880
So I feel sorry for his wife.

67
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:44,520
And it came out to where worship was the topic on my mind in the last minutes where I used

68
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:50,000
to be on a worship team for like 11, 12 years, I would go to different churches and be on

69
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
their worship teams.

70
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,360
I would go to multiple events and be on worship teams.

71
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,320
I was hired to be on worship teams in some places.

72
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,360
And that's just kind of what it was.

73
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,440
And I have a really big passion and big heart for worship.

74
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,640
And I think this is a good topic to go on.

75
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,200
That's just since I'm leading today's episode.

76
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,680
I think it's going to be really good.

77
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,560
And it ties into my story that happened yesterday.

78
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,840
So that that's where we're at.

79
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:16,840
Yeah.

80
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:19,640
I'm glad to have Jason, somebody who's been on a worship team.

81
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,720
I think I was on the youth worship team and played like the bongos.

82
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,640
That's my little boom, boom, boom, boom.

83
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:36,320
That's my worst experience with this guy is the really, like he says, been in multiple

84
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:43,800
worship teams can sing, can play 20 something plus instruments.

85
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,760
So like he knows worship.

86
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,840
You know, I can't sing.

87
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:53,640
So Dylan was the little drummer boy.

88
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:54,640
Yes.

89
00:04:54,640 --> 00:05:01,000
You know, who hasn't seen the six to 200 plus drummer boy?

90
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,920
Not the not the little drummer boy.

91
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:03,920
No, no.

92
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,840
The oh, my gosh, the drummer boy.

93
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:07,840
I don't know.

94
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:11,680
All Lord drummer boy.

95
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:12,680
So yeah.

96
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,680
So that's that's the base.

97
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,720
He's just walking.

98
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,040
He's walking.

99
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:28,920
So I wanted to share first off, what is the definition of worship and then share my story

100
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,720
because the short story, it's not that long.

101
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,920
Probably the pulpit guys go in.

102
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:41,280
No, not a pulpit today, but worship and a definition is any expression of obedience,

103
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:49,120
praise, honor, adoration, gratitude offered to the true God by a regenerate soul who knows

104
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,280
the truth about God and loves him.

105
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:53,600
That is the basic definition.

106
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,860
And most people think worship is just singing songs.

107
00:05:57,860 --> 00:06:01,880
So that's the definition and that's that's the true definition of worship.

108
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,680
And we will get into versus talking about that.

109
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,160
That's going to be easy.

110
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,400
Here's the story that happened to me yesterday.

111
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,160
And Dylan, I didn't tell you yet, but I've told like three or four other people.

112
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:19,240
So before me, before you, I thought that's OK.

113
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,080
You didn't respond to me.

114
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,720
I was trying to talk with you.

115
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,600
I'm sorry, but I was parenting and.

116
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:34,960
You just have to say I'm parenting and that's it.

117
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,160
And then plus it was my parents anniversary.

118
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,520
So you know, yeah, I did see that.

119
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:40,520
Yeah.

120
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,280
Congratulations to them for sure.

121
00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:43,640
And he yeah.

122
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:44,920
Thirty two years.

123
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:45,920
It's crazy.

124
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:46,920
That's funny.

125
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,240
I had to get Miranda involved and like Dylan, where's your phone?

126
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,800
I had to like message it where Miranda saw it.

127
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,840
She's like, she's like, she's like, Jason's messaging the group.

128
00:06:54,840 --> 00:06:55,840
You need to respond.

129
00:06:55,840 --> 00:07:00,360
I'm like, OK, I'm going to be like, I shared.

130
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,720
I asked him, when can you record?

131
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,120
I sent him like a photo that I created.

132
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,600
I sent him marketing material for Gospel Truth.

133
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,600
I sent them links.

134
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,360
I was like, he's not responding.

135
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,840
And not not only that, he didn't see any of the messages or open any of them because it

136
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,720
tells me if he opens my messages, he was leaving me on read.

137
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,360
He didn't get read.

138
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,200
No, nothing was seen.

139
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,480
He was just seeing the messages and swiping them away.

140
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,080
Like, I don't want to look at his text right now.

141
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,400
I had so many understand I had.

142
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,840
He I had coach soccer yesterday.

143
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,760
You know, I mean, you cook dinner and see my parents at the time.

144
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,880
I'm like, it's like a cooking in the middle cooking, you know, dinner.

145
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,600
And I get, you know.

146
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,720
Yeah, when?

147
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:51,720
Volume off on your phone.

148
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:52,720
Yeah.

149
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,520
Jason's trying to get a hold of you.

150
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,520
So you need any answer?

151
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,240
I'm like, it's been all day.

152
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,880
Yeah, I think I saw something.

153
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:08,840
I told myself, because I'm like, it's in message me respond to him later.

154
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:09,840
Like cleared notifications.

155
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:16,360
And I'm like, and your response, your response was thumbing up.

156
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,280

All response.

158
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,120
I just see this Dylan like to put a message.

159
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,080
I was like, that's his response.

160
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,080
And I go in there.

161
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,480
He like, do you want to record tomorrow?

00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:31,480
Thumbs up.

163
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:32,480
Let's do it.

164
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:37,080
I was like, OK, then I clicked on the worship.

165
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,240
Thank him.

166
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,080
I listen to some worship.

167
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,080
It's good stuff.

168
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,080
Oh, cooking.

169
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:47,800
I mean, I mean, not sure how many not shows and to status.

170
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:48,800
Good stuff.

171
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,240
And the hot oil and trying not to burn myself.

172
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:53,240
Oh, yeah.

173
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:54,240
Yeah.

174
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,200
Whatever does whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

175
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,200
Right.

176
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,320
And if it's not shows, it tastes good, too.

177
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,320
So yeah, you get rewarded.

178
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,520
Worth the pain.

179
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,520
Yeah.

180
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,000
All right.

181
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:14,880
So regardless of that, this is the story that I was going to tell you yesterday that we

182
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,560
told you is going to be a pulpit guy.

183
00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:19,600
He's been talking about the story for like the past 10 minutes.

184
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,720
No, it's not.

185
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:22,920
It's just kind of interesting.

186
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,840
So I woke up at like two fifty a.m. yesterday.

187
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,360
Frighteningly, I was going to throw up.

188
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,360
I hated it.

189
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,000
It was like some food poisoning or something that got me.

190
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,560
I was I knew without a doubt.

191
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:39,800
If I ever had that feeling, I'm going to throw up.

192
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,360
That's just my personality.

193
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,680
I know it's gross, but that is just when I feel that feeling, I know it's happening.

194
00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:50,360
So I went to the restroom and I was waiting for that moment to happen where I was going

195
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,360
to throw up.

196
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:52,360
I was gagging.

197
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,360
I was like, this is not good.

198
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,360
This is not good.

199
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,880
I'm thinking, man, it's three a.m.

200
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,560
I I'm so tired from this week.

201
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:01,560
It's been a long week.

202
00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:03,680
I can't have this.

203
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:12,120
And so I laid down on the bathroom floor face down, laying down, and I laid there just feeling

204
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,760
this feeling and gagging and just like, I don't want to do this.

205
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:22,840
And I turned it and I was like, God, thank you for this opportunity I have right now

206
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,960
to thank you and talk to you and worship you.

207
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:32,120
And I laid there face down and on a bathroom floor saying, God, thank you for this.

208
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,200
Thank you for what I'm dealing with, whether I do throw up or don't throw up.

209
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:42,480
Thank you that I get this moment to to worship you and express that to you and express gratitude

210
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:43,480
towards you.

211
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,080
And I thank you for this.

212
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,360
And this was for 20 minutes, 15, 20 minutes.

213
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:55,120
I was just for three on the on the floor of the bathroom.

214
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,120
Yeah.

215
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,160
I said the bidet.

216
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,920
Yeah.

217
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,000
I was just like, I'm going to throw up.

218
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,480
And then I felt the warmth presence, like the warm presence of the Holy Spirit lay on

219
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:13,120
me on my back, like a press could have been the Arizona heat guys could be, you know,

220
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,120
could be.

221
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,440
I probably it was the Holy Spirit.

222
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:16,440
Yeah.

223
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:22,880
And I was laying there and I felt God explain to me, go eat two anti acids and eat three

224
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:28,560
vitamin C pills and lay down on the back on bed on your back.

225
00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:31,840
Don't roll, don't sleep which way I sleep on my side.

226
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,640
So sleep on my back is really hard for me and sleep on your back and it will go away.

227
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,520
And I kept hearing that in my head over and over again.

228
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,560
And I was like, this is nothing I would never do that.

229
00:11:42,560 --> 00:11:45,680
I would eat an anti acid just one because I don't like to eat two.

230
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:49,040
I would eat one and leave it at that and try to sleep.

231
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,400
That's how I try to deal with it.

232
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,920
But it never works.

233
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,720
So I'm laying there face down like I believe that's God because that's not something I

234
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,720
would do.

235
00:11:58,720 --> 00:11:59,720
Why the vitamin C?

236
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,080
I don't even know if I had vitamin C right now.

237
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,080
So that's kind of weird.

238
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,360
But I'm like laying there face flat.

239
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,600
I'm like, I don't know if I can even get up right now without throwing up.

240
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,960
So I pushed myself.

241
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,640
I got up, felt like I was about to just throw chunks in the kitchen because I was that's

242
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,760
where all my vitamins and stuff are.

243
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:18,960
I opened up the cabinet.

244
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,280
I find the anti acids.

245
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,760
I eat two of them and that look and there was sure enough some vitamin C left and I

246
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,440
ate three of those.

247
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,240
I went to the bedroom and I'm like, I feel like I'm going to throw up on this bed.

248
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,520
I can't do that though.

249
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:32,520
I'm like, it's fine.

250
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:33,840
I'm doing what God's instructed.

251
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,200
I know it's God.

252
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:41,520
And I laid down on my bed on my back and instantaneously the feeling of throwing up went away.

253
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:42,840
Absolutely gone.

254
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:48,580
And I was like, thank you God that you gave this to me.

255
00:12:48,580 --> 00:12:49,580
And I fell asleep.

256
00:12:49,580 --> 00:12:51,840
I woke up the next day.

257
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:52,840
Well rested.

258
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,080
It felt fantastic.

259
00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:02,120
And it was such a cool experience to see that I accepted whatever does happen to me that

260
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,800
night that morning.

261
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,880
Whatever one you like to say, I accepted it.

262
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,720
It's 233 AM.

263
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,600
So I accepted what was happening to me and what was going to happen one way or another.

264
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:21,440
If it was for my benefit or my wants or it wasn't for my wants of my benefit, I accepted

265
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:27,840
it and thank God for it because he deserves the praise and by doing that, he gave me instructions.

266
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:34,840
I listened and I followed and that's an expression of worship is that obedience, honor, praise,

267
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,840
adoration.

268
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,200
And so while I'm over here pacing, thinking about what to talk about today, I realized

269
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:45,560
I had a story this share about what happened and it does relate to worship and it all falls

270
00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:49,280
back into place about what is worship and how do we live that out.

271
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,440
So that's my little story from yesterday morning.

272
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,240
I got to deal with.

273
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,640
Yeah, I assume it makes me think about what my mom always said.

274
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:06,200
I wake up early like at like three, four in the morning sometimes.

275
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,760
And I assume like, oh, it's your ADHD.

276
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:14,760
No, I'm like, no, I just wake up and I can't go back to bed.

277
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:20,120
Mom's like, that's because God's trying to tell you something now.

278
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,000
So you need to pray and you need to read.

279
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,120
Did you make time?

280
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:31,240
They before I like, oh, did they?

281
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,160
Sometimes God gives you a stomach ache, too.

282
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,920
This is like, hey, rely on me.

283
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,520
You need to rely on me a little bit.

284
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:38,880
Pray to me, talk to me, Jason.

285
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:39,880
I need that.

286
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,880
Yeah.

287
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,200
And maybe you were sick and maybe, you know, you're good.

288
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,480
You listened, heard what he was trying to tell you.

289
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:49,480
Yeah.

290
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,160
I mean, he just some cakes in the middle of the night.

291
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,920
And I think that's something I would always be told.

292
00:14:54,920 --> 00:15:00,520
So I think of them like, you know, God's like, hey, you need to focus here for a little bit.

293
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:01,840
You forgot about me.

294
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,800
I was you cut out my time.

295
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:09,840
You were cutting out some sleeping time, which is, you know, huge.

296
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,880
I loved I love sleep.

297
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,320
So, you know, and it's one of those things where it's like, man, need that.

298
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,000
It's like you need sleep, but you also need to have time with God.

299
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,280
So, yeah, he's going to make sure that he gets his time.

300
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,280
Right.

301
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,120
Some of us here he means to make he make sure.

302
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:27,120
Yeah.

303
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:32,000
And it's interesting, too, because when I was younger, when I was a lot younger, like

304
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:36,440
18, 19, I used to.

305
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,000
Yes, that's a long time ago, Dylan.

306
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,600
No, don't you say it like it's a long time ago.

307
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,320
But I'm like, no, it was.

308
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,200
It was over a decade.

309
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,200
Yeah.

310
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,120
It's like 11 to 13 years ago.

311
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:55,240
It's only 10 years for me as a decade.

312
00:15:55,240 --> 00:16:01,560
When I was younger, that age, I used to I remember getting sick a couple of times and

313
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,640
I used to think why was God forsaking me?

314
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:05,860
And that was my mentality.

315
00:16:05,860 --> 00:16:08,360
Why is God letting me deal with this?

316
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:13,080
Why why does he not love me enough to keep me from feeling this?

317
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:18,600
And that was a lot of my ideology because I felt that and I was also taught that from

318
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,480
some of the churches was that, you know, God removes sickness.

319
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,800
And if he's not going away, then you don't have enough faith.

320
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,280
You don't believe hard enough.

321
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:28,600
You done something wrong.

322
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,220
It's generational wrong that you can't.

323
00:16:32,220 --> 00:16:34,840
That's not something you're supposed to experience.

324
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,720
And realizing that's wrong.

325
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,800
That ideology was wrong.

326
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:47,080
And I think God through all of it and I give him I open doors as in like I talk to people

327
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:53,800
and I give God opportunity for the Holy Spirit to intervene in situations and use me as a

328
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,120
vessel.

329
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,680
And so that's what I do nowadays.

330
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,460
And I think whether it goes my way or think when it doesn't go my way, because it's not

331
00:17:00,460 --> 00:17:04,160
about my way, it's about his way and me following his way.

332
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,880
Oh, way, yeah, way.

333
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,360
Yeah, I know.

334
00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:18,040
I've ever been told that I suppose I had appendicitis that God was trying to tell me something and

335
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,040
then I wasn't listening.

336
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:24,760
I was going like, no, I'm pretty sure it's because my appendix got inflamed.

337
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:30,640
Like I don't think God's like here to sickness because you're not obeying God brings good

338
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,160
things.

339
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,360
Every good and perfect thing that's from him.

340
00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:43,720
Yeah, it's a good every good and perfect thing comes from you.

341
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,360
And you sing it to God.

342
00:17:45,360 --> 00:17:50,520
Yeah, that's like early 2000s worship right there early.

343
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,320
You know what?

344
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,680
I'm going to sidetrack us here a little bit because you reminded me of another topic that

345
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,600
I was trying to think about talking about and we will talk about it sometime, but I

346
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,200
just want to touch up on it because you mentioned it.

347
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:11,200
There are things that we like not everybody, but there are things that everybody has been

348
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:17,160
taught from churches or leaders that are more of the manmade side rather than the biblical

349
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:18,160
side.

350
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:23,080
Like, for example, don't say maybe I want to share this one thing.

351
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,360
This is the side tangent.

352
00:18:24,360 --> 00:18:26,520
We'll do this for like five minutes or something.

353
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:33,280
But I want I was listening to a preacher, right?

354
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,720
Someone who was just sharing the gospel, just talking about it.

355
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:44,120
And he they asked him, how do you see?

356
00:18:44,120 --> 00:18:49,040
How do you know how well off you are building your relationship with God?

357
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,520
Have you heard that term building a relationship with God?

358
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:53,520
Yeah.

359
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,800
How are you building that?

360
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:03,600
No, it's oh, he hasn't heard it for a while.

361
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,720
You already have a relationship with God.

362
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:12,960
God has done everything on his side of that relationship, so to speak.

363
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,720
He sacrificed his life.

364
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:15,960
He's come back from the dead.

365
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,040
He's conquered sin.

366
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,560
He's given a new covenant to humankind.

367
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,260
He already has shown all his cards.

368
00:19:22,260 --> 00:19:25,940
His love, his grace, his compassion, et cetera.

369
00:19:25,940 --> 00:19:30,600
When people say building a relationship, they like to think that it's a human relationship

370
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,440
where both sides are working on it.

371
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,640
Both sides are figuring out both sides are doing their part to try to work it out.

372
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,360
This isn't how it works with God.

373
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:44,600
Our relationship with God, it's not in the sense that we're building together.

374
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,720
We can never build something with God.

375
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,240
He already set the stone.

376
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:49,820
He set the foundation.

377
00:19:49,820 --> 00:19:54,520
He gave us everything we need to do to get close to him.

378
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,080
When it comes to relationship with Christ, which we've mentioned before, we're talking

379
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:04,160
about our side of things and knowing how deep that love goes.

380
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,560
That's important.

381
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,520
That's something that I heard today that just threw me off.

382
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,320
I was like, oh, I've heard that before.

383
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,320
I've heard I'm building a relationship with Christ before.

384
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,320
Yeah.

385
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:17,320
I haven't heard that.

386
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:25,920
I feel like in a really long time because that's like, there's not it's like it's the

387
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,080
relationship is already there.

388
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:32,440
Everybody has a relationship with God, whether it's a good one or a bad one.

389
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,440
It's on us.

390
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:34,440
You know what I mean?

391
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,440
It's on us.

392
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,440
Exactly.

393
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:37,440
It's not him.

394
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:38,440
It's not on him.

395
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,040
Like, you know.

396
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:52,600
So there was this is one of the so many stuff to talk about, but there was one talk about.

397
00:20:52,600 --> 00:21:02,920
Yeah, it's not Tuesday yet, but I will share this and I encourage you to keep an open mind

398
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:08,320
because a lot of people, a lot of Christians, as soon as I say this, they freak the frick

399
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,120
out.

400
00:21:10,120 --> 00:21:17,880
And it's insane to me because there is a God that loves us all and it's insane to think

401
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,760
about.

402
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,920
So there's this there's this guy on TikTok.

403
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,840
All he does is preach the gospel.

404
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,240
He he he talks the Bible.

405
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:28,240
He loves God.

406
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,400
You can see the Holy Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit through everything he does, says

407
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,320
and does.

408
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,760
And the sad thing is, is that this guy is he is gay.

409
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,840
He's attracted to the same sex.

410
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,520
But here's the thing.

411
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:43,720
He's celibate.

412
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:44,720
And he said this before.

413
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,000
I respect him wholeheartedly for this.

414
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:53,880
He has said it before that God is greater than his lust, his desire and his passions.

415
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,920
That doesn't change necessarily who he's attracted to.

416
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,600
And it didn't for him specifically, but he went celibate because he knew that that is

417
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,520
something he struggles with and he knows what the Bible says about it.

418
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:10,880
And he continuously strives to show the gospel and who God is.

419
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,280
And there was people in the comments.

420
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,560
Oh, you can't teach.

421
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:15,780
You can't speak about God.

422
00:22:15,780 --> 00:22:17,120
You can't talk about the Bible.

423
00:22:17,120 --> 00:22:19,760
You can't talk about the gospel because you're still gay.

424
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,180
You're still attracted to the same sex.

425
00:22:22,180 --> 00:22:30,520
And he was like, I, I understand that living that life is wrong, but that doesn't change.

426
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,760
That doesn't always end up changing my mentality of who I am.

427
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,920
That's my sin I struggle with.

428
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,880
I have a huge issue.

429
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:44,160
If not with that gentleman at all, I have an issue with people who are thinking like

430
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,400
that because those people that are calling him out, it's the same thing we talked about.

431
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,760
I think it was last week.

432
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,760
Oh, pulling out the eye thing.

433
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,760
Removing the spec.

434
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,960
Somebody else says I wouldn't have to hold the log.

435
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,320
Not at all saying that it's okay.

436
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:06,120
You know, but that's his sin that he's dealing with and he's doing a lot better than most

437
00:23:06,120 --> 00:23:07,120
people.

438
00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:08,120
I'll see.

439
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:10,840
So they act out on their sin and they, you know what?

440
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:19,120
And like, you know, I remember hearing this one thing is like 60% of pastors deal with

441
00:23:19,120 --> 00:23:21,760
a problem of pornography.

442
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:22,760
Oh yeah.

443
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:23,760
Yeah.

444
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:24,760
60%.

445
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,760
So that's 60% of your pastors.

446
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:36,120
Like I remember there was a thing, a guy with stockings going like the clerk or whatever

447
00:23:36,120 --> 00:23:41,320
the hotel is going like, yeah, you guys sure get a lot of pornography.

448
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:46,920
They're buying a lot of pornos and he was shocked when he heard that and he was like

449
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,240
to find out the stats.

450
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,240
It's like 60%.

451
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,880
And that's his pastors.

452
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,720
The congregation, like there's, I'm not saying that's everybody's problem, but it's

453
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,680
people have anger issues.

454
00:23:58,680 --> 00:23:59,760
That's another big one.

455
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,200
Everybody has a different sin.

456
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,120
If somebody is working on their sin is our job to be encouraging.

457
00:24:06,120 --> 00:24:07,120
Right.

458
00:24:07,120 --> 00:24:13,720
Like my crisis and the encourage like, Hey man, you know, and on you for, you know, saying

459
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:18,840
single being so celibate and you know, not acting on your sin.

460
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:23,920
Um, maybe even open up and say, Hey man, I'll be keep praying for you.

461
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,160
You know, I can use prayer in this area.

462
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:34,760
We're all struggling with the sin on this planet and the single somebody out.

463
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:38,320
And then he's trying to, you know, show that's even good because there might be somebody

464
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:45,400
who like a teenager or somebody who is struggling with that sin and those feelings like, ah,

465
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:51,400
but I know it's wrong, but you know, I told by society that now anybody who doesn't accept

466
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:58,200
me their biggest, their sex, their, all these hateful homophobic people, but that's putting

467
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:04,280
a positive light on it going like, Hey, you know, Oh, he believes in Christ.

468
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,480
Oh yeah.

469
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:06,880
He knows it's not right too.

470
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,960
And he's dealing with it.

471
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,000
He's not still able to have a relationship with Jesus.

472
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,000
Right.

473
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,000
The same thing.

474
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,960
Like I tell my youth kids, I'm like, um, I'm like, I'm this old, you know, I waited for

475
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,160
marriage to have sex.

476
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,920
I waited for her.

477
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,200
I've never, I haven't been drunk.

478
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,720
I haven't smoked pot.

479
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,440
I haven't done any of that stuff.

480
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:32,920
I'm like, I'm almost 30.

481
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,520
I'll be 30 here in six months.

482
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:39,880
And I'm like, I have made it three decades without doing any of that stuff.

483
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,460
I'm like, I'm saying like, I mean, I'm so thinking amazing because I fall short in many

484
00:25:44,460 --> 00:25:49,920
other places when like, look at, Hey, it's cause everybody seems like everybody's doing

485
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:56,560
something doesn't mean you, you have to, and you can stay strong and know that, you know,

486
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,520
there's temptations, but you don't have to fall into them.

487
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,280
I think that's a great example.

488
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:08,920
Um, that guy, um, you have to send me his, yeah, I think it is afterwards.

489
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:09,920
Yeah.

490
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:10,920
Cause yeah.

491
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,480
Cause it's, there's a, like we talked about in the previous episode about sin is that

492
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,960
there's a difference between living in sin and sinning and falling short.

493
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:18,960
Cause we all fall short.

494
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,520
We all sin, but the difference is that you're choosing to continuously live in sin is where

495
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,800
we're not truly following Christ.

496
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,720
And that's where we do not have the Holy spirit with us because we do not continuously live

497
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,540
in sin unless we are choosing to walk away from God.

498
00:26:34,540 --> 00:26:40,540
And anyone like this guy who's like, God is Jesus is Lord.

499
00:26:40,540 --> 00:26:41,780
He's my Lord and savior.

500
00:26:41,780 --> 00:26:46,440
He's rescued me from this world, from this life that I lived before.

501
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,120
And that I still struggle with these feelings.

502
00:26:49,120 --> 00:26:56,280
I still struggle with these desires, but his love and his kingdom is greater than my lust,

503
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,600
my str my struggles and anything I deal with.

504
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,440
I'm like, dude, I even sent him a message.

505
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,000
I'm like, I'd love to have you on my podcast to be honest.

506
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:09,800
I'm like, I'd love to hear your testimony because I've seen it on his Tik TOKs.

507
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:15,240
I'm like, dude, this site, this guy really, really pushes, uh, I'm not going to share

508
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:22,520
his name on here, um, just in general, but, uh, it's really, really cool to see that kind

509
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,680
of dedication and that falls for everybody.

510
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:31,480
Like even if us, even us too, if we look at a woman and in lust after her, that right

511
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:32,480
there is a sin.

512
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,720
We've already committed adultery done.

513
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:35,800
That's it.

514
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:36,920
And we fail.

515
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,880
That's that's that's going to happen.

516
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:45,100
And so, you know, with porn, that's one of the easiest and most accessible ways to get

517
00:27:45,100 --> 00:27:48,880
into lust and get into that sin because it's so accessible.

518
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,000
You got your computer, you got your phone, you got your tablet.

519
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:55,240
I mean, shoot, you could probably yell out to Alexa over there and say something and

520
00:27:55,240 --> 00:28:01,600
it will start playing porn sounds like it's so accessible to everything.

521
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:08,080
It's like, yeah, you can probably sneeze on accident and your phone will go to porn.

522
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:13,360
Like it's so accessible to everybody and it's so easy to get involved with and get hooked

523
00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:14,360
on.

524
00:28:14,360 --> 00:28:18,600
And then people pretend like, oh, well, that's just a soft sin.

525
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:19,960
It doesn't hurt any blind.

526
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,240
Well, sin is sin.

527
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:22,240
You're cheating on God.

528
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,240
You're cheating on God.

529
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:28,360
Yeah, we could do a whole episode on that, too, because that is detrimental to mental

530
00:28:28,360 --> 00:28:31,560
health and health wise for men.

531
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:32,560
Yeah.

532
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:38,560
And the damage does, you know, men's damage is so much.

533
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:43,800
Yeah, we've been part of so many men's Bible studies or, you know, I've talked about that.

534
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:44,800
We've discussed it.

535
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:51,240
It is the problem with it is that, you know, most people don't talk about it because it's

536
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,040
one of those taboo things.

537
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,880
And you know, we're here talking about worship today.

538
00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:59,480
Oh, yes.

539
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,960
And this actually ties all back in to worship, because what was the very first thing of that

540
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:13,520
definition I mentioned was that worship is any expression of obedience, praise to God,

541
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:21,360
honor, adoration, gratitude offered to God by a regenerate soul who knows the truth about

542
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,820
God and that God loves them.

543
00:29:23,820 --> 00:29:25,080
And that's the beauty of this.

544
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,200
And we're going to get into some verses with it that everything that we've been talking

545
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,960
about, it shows that obedience is part of worship.

546
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:36,760
And I mean, there's even points to where like it's not just going to church on Sunday and

547
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,820
singing some worship songs.

548
00:29:38,820 --> 00:29:44,800
Worship in itself is continuous obedience and reverence of God, of Jesus.

549
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:51,920
And so first off, I wanted to bring up John 4 24.

550
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,440
Do you know this passage?

551
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,120
On 4 24.

552
00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:01,480
Yeah, it's the most famous moment in Jesus earthly ministry by far.

553
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,840
Like it is absolutely it's between verse five and 26.

554
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,320
But here he converses with the Samaritan woman.

555
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:17,120
I'm sure you recognize that where this particular woman is not only an unclean quote Samaritan,

556
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,700
but an outcast among her own people.

557
00:30:19,700 --> 00:30:24,880
She actually attempts to avoid Jesus teachings, giving flippant and sarcastic answers, that

558
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:25,880
kind of stuff.

559
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:30,720
And despite that, despite knowing all about her sin, Jesus encourages her with the love

560
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:31,840
of God.

561
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:36,800
And this breaks through her hard heart, and as a result, many others are brought to meet

562
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:37,800
Christ.

563
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,640
And disciples are also taught a valuable lesson about the purpose of their mission.

564
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:46,320
Rather than preaching to you know who just Jews, they were like, wow, this is a Samaritan.

565
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,320
This is like.

566
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:48,320
What the heck?

567
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,920
Like, these are the people that we don't like.

568
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:58,480
So it's like, I mean, shoot, you can you can say American versus any other country out

569
00:30:58,480 --> 00:30:59,480
there.

570
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:04,760
But I'm just going to them and saying like, hey, you know, we love you guys.

571
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,320
It's like what?

572
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:11,240
Like Americans over to Germans, even if they're part of the Nazi Party or not, not part of

573
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,760
the Nazi Party, just to be extreme in that sense.

574
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,560
We still show them that love and like, hey, you're my people that I'm trying to reach

575
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:18,560
out to.

576
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,160
You're the people I'm trying to to show God's love to.

577
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,240
I'm not trying to show the people who are already in church or the people who already

578
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,240
accept Christ.

579
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,880
I'm looking for the people who don't know God, who might be dealing with the worst of

580
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,560
the worst and who might need God the most.

581
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,560
That's where I'm at.

582
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,120
So that's very true.

583
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:38,280
Yeah.

584
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,920
So in verse 24, I mean, you're there, right?

585
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:42,920
On 424.

586
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:43,920
Yeah.

587
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,720
Go ahead and read that one.

588
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:51,520
So God is spirit and his worship must worship in the spirit.

589
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:57,640
The woman said, I know that Messiah.

590
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:02,520
With Christ is coming and when he comes, he will explain everything to us.

591
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,240
And Jesus says, I am the one you speak of.

592
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:06,240
I am he.

593
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,240
Yep.

594
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:08,240
Right.

595
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:09,240
There's Jesus claiming.

596
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,240
Yeah, he's claiming he is him.

597
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:17,840
And he says those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.

598
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,240
This is really cool because it makes a clear point that God himself is spirit and God is

599
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:26,800
not simply a more complex physical being or a limited creature.

600
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:32,880
In other words, God is not restricted to seeing, hearing or being in a single location like

601
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,400
the false gods of most religions, especially at this time.

602
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,160
This also helps to keep Genesis 126 in context.

603
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:46,360
The fact that man is created in the image of God does not mean we have some physical

604
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,960
resemblance to him.

605
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,960
We share his moral and rational nature.

606
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,320
And I love this.

607
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:58,320
I love this verse and I think it's a great verse to talk about in general, but it goes

608
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,080
to show a little bit about, OK, so now we're starting to touch into verses talking about

609
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:07,840
worship and I have another verse that you will probably like a lot.

610
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:13,640
So then Romans, it is in Romans.

611
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,280
Romans 12, one.

612
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,440
Roman Romans.

613
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,000
Oh, man.

614
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,000
Of one.

615
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,000
12, one.

616
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,000
Oh, oh.

617
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,840
The context here is one to two, so two.

618
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:36,240
Therefore I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy to offer your bodies

619
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:41,120
as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God.

620
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,920
This is our true and proper worship.

621
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:49,560
Do not conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed with the renewing of your

622
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:56,800
mind and you will be able to test and approve that what God's will is.

623
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:57,800
Is good.

624
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,200
Beasing imperfect will.

625
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,520
So that's good right there.

626
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,640
Oh, yeah.

627
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:11,680
This is the true and proper worship is sacrificing is a living sacrifice.

628
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,200
We should be living sacrifice for God.

629
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,320
It means and holy and pleasing to him.

630
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:24,320
So that means we need to be holy, which is set apart, set apart and pleasing the Lord.

631
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:32,460
That is the true purpose, the true proper worship to be set apart and to please God.

632
00:34:32,460 --> 00:34:36,920
We are set apart for him to just worship him.

633
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,200
I sense then you'll be able to test and approve God's will.

634
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:47,280
So then by doing this and by wishing him and being set apart for him, it sounds like in

635
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,720
a sense of having discernment and you will know because we will be set apart for him

636
00:34:51,720 --> 00:34:53,040
that we will be in him.

637
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:58,000
We will know things that are not of him.

638
00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,480
Like that.

639
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,360
It's really cool because here he's answering the question.

640
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:08,400
How should we respond to God's great mercy to us?

641
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:14,660
And the answer is to become living, breathing sacrifices like you were saying and like this

642
00:35:14,660 --> 00:35:18,200
is saying and.

643
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:21,240
It's true and it's really cool because it's an ongoing worship.

644
00:35:21,240 --> 00:35:25,540
It's not just like I said, church on Sundays.

645
00:35:25,540 --> 00:35:32,560
It's an ongoing living and continuous sacrifice of who I am or who he is.

646
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:33,560
Right.

647
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:34,560
100%.

648
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:38,600
That goes back to the tick tock guy I was talking about where he's like, God is greater

649
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,760
than anything that I want and deal with.

650
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,800
And so therefore I submit to him.

651
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:45,800
I submit to him.

652
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:46,800
I submit to his authority.

653
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,840
I said I submit to everything he is and follow him because he is the true king.

654
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:52,840
He is a savior.

655
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,700
He is salvation.

656
00:35:54,700 --> 00:35:59,580
So that that is something that's really important to understand.

657
00:35:59,580 --> 00:36:06,280
Now the cool thing is, is that with that being mentioned, where is it?

658
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:14,920
There is a verse that references this Hebrews 1315 is actually referencing Romans because

659
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:20,380
it says through him, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God.

660
00:36:20,380 --> 00:36:25,480
That is the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

661
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:30,840
So it takes that continuous sacrifice and says, acknowledge his name, which is really

662
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:37,280
cool because it's not just saying like not just a lifestyle.

663
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:38,280
It's more than that.

664
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:43,840
It's sacrificing your life, everything you are and giving it to God as as he sacrifices

665
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:44,840
life for us.

666
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,760
We sacrifice our life for him and for his kingdom.

667
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,300
And we announce it with our we acknowledge his name.

668
00:36:51,300 --> 00:36:55,240
We continue to say his name.

669
00:36:55,240 --> 00:37:01,920
This whole section for Hebrews 13, it contains practical instructions for the Christian believers

670
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,280
for seven through 17.

671
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,440
Highly recommend reading it.

672
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:12,880
These follow major themes from the rest of this letter, including perseverance, peacefulness,

673
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,440
praise.

674
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:19,520
This text also includes like parallel component components of the old covenant with the ministry

675
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:25,720
of Jesus, specifically those these verses compared to the disposal of sacrifice to animals

676
00:37:25,720 --> 00:37:31,360
with Jesus crucifix crucifix crucifixion.

677
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,360
Talking too much now.

678
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:37,320
I'm going too fast, but but both occurred outside the borders of the community.

679
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:38,320
Right?

680
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:44,080
I can see.

681
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,720
I couldn't say it, but crucifixion.

682
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:50,520
It's it's important to crucifixion.

683
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:55,840
So I was saying it wrong, but sound like you're talking in tongues for a second.

684
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:56,840
Right.

685
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:03,160
So instead of sacrificing animals, Jesus sacrificed himself for us so we wouldn't have to do that.

686
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:11,120
So in return, we sacrifice who we are for the glory of his kingdom there.

687
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,400
Much easier, much easier to understand.

688
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,680
I thought you're like trying to be Moses there for a second with that speech and put him

689
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:24,600
in there or something like are me.

690
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:33,800
I think the worship, like you said, man, is this like, you know, it's that set apart giving

691
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,200
yourself for him.

692
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:41,920
And like you're saying with that one gentleman, you know, his sin and sacrificing yourself

693
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:43,480
to your sin.

694
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,360
Oh, yeah.

695
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:50,240
No, sacrificing yourself to God, not your sin.

696
00:38:50,240 --> 00:38:51,240
Right.

697
00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:58,960
Because he divulged into your sin to deny your flesh.

698
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:07,440
So yeah, there's a consistent theme with worship.

699
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:14,160
And I don't know how it got so lost in the church in general, where churches teaching

700
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,480
worship to be worship is just singing.

701
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:23,760
You come, you sing and you sing praise and there you worship and that's worship.

702
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,640
And we've come to the idea that that is what worship is.

703
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,760
And that's not biblically accurate at all.

704
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,960
Yeah, we do sing praises.

705
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:34,680
That is exactly what we should be doing.

706
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,200
But it's a lifelong every day.

707
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:42,680
Everything we do, like when I was on the bathroom floor, I thank God for it because I knew it

708
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:48,040
was the same concept that I give up everything I'm doing, my life and everything to him and

709
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:53,120
say, no, I don't care the outcome because God is good.

710
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:59,240
And that's the most important part of my aspect of my mentality is that God is good and that

711
00:39:59,240 --> 00:40:04,480
it's and all be the glory to him, no matter what the circumstances or the outcome of those

712
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,440
circumstances are.

713
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:14,280
John four twenty three, which we already read in four, but this is a little bit later where

714
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:19,680
it says, but the hour is coming, which I'm sure you've heard before, is now here where

715
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:26,400
the true worshipers will worship the father in spirit and truth, for the father is seeking

716
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,840
such people to worship him.

717
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:38,160
And I, I, this is going to hit a little harder in my opinion, because I've seen this and

718
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:44,480
I know it's common when persecution comes for Christians and those who believe and follow

719
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,920
Christ.

720
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:54,440
People will have the choice to say that they worship God or say they don't and face the

721
00:40:54,440 --> 00:41:00,000
penalty, whatever it is, could be death, someone like out to kill them, could be whatever it

722
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,880
is, persecution.

723
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:08,520
And we're going to see real quickly who's actually followers of Christ and who's not.

724
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:14,520
And I think this kind of falls in line with what this verse is talking about in the sense

725
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:22,080
that like true worshipers will worship the father in spirit and truth.

726
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:26,340
And this is this is very important in general.

727
00:41:26,340 --> 00:41:32,360
This is because this verse is crucial for two reasons.

728
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:37,560
First, this is the part of Jesus correction on the meaning of worship.

729
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,160
The Samaritan woman, this is the same chapters before when we're talking about the Samaritan

730
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:48,240
woman, she attempted to distract Jesus from her sin by asking him to resolve an old spiritual

731
00:41:48,240 --> 00:41:51,060
argument.

732
00:41:51,060 --> 00:41:58,400
This was the question of where proper worship should occur.

733
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:04,480
Mount Gerizim or the Temple of Jerusalem or rather than taking the bait, Jesus clarifies

734
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:11,840
that true worship of God is not tied to a location, but to the inherent or the inherent

735
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,780
intent of one's heart.

736
00:42:14,780 --> 00:42:19,160
It's not about places, not going Sunday, not about doing something.

737
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:23,400
It's the one's heart and their intent behind it.

738
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,520
And this is very important because he's setting that standard.

739
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:32,640
Worship is not just I'm going to Jerusalem, I'm going to worship and by singing, he's

740
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,480
like, that's not what worship is.

741
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,320
And you think that way, you're not a true bullet.

742
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:37,520
You're not a true worshiper.

743
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:39,640
I'm not looking for that.

744
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,540
He goes to the point to like, father is seeking such people who to worship him when they're

745
00:42:43,540 --> 00:42:46,880
true worshipers who worship the father in spirit and truth.

746
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,720
I just go to a building and say, I'm worshipping.

747
00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:53,520
He's looking for the people who actually worship.

748
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,960
Yeah, I, it's a hundred percent true.

749
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:06,960
It's like, I always think of a, the church sign has church was missing the, uh, it is

750
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:11,800
spelled C H T H and it has a tube length.

751
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,280
He's like, what's missing?

752
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:17,760
You are, huh, that's like, you're missing.

753
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:18,760
No, it's good.

754
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,440
It's like, is you are missing like, is you are the church.

755
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:22,440
Yeah.

756
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,880
I was like, doesn't matter.

757
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:30,640
And a building is just like you and me right now.

758
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:32,000
We are the body.

759
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:33,680
We are the church of Christ.

760
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,720
We talked about church too.

761
00:43:36,720 --> 00:43:37,720
It did.

762
00:43:37,720 --> 00:43:38,720
That's a good episode.

763
00:43:38,720 --> 00:43:39,720
Yeah.

764
00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:40,720
What is the church?

765
00:43:40,720 --> 00:43:43,640
There's a plug here.

766
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:49,460
Um, no, but I think that's huge.

767
00:43:49,460 --> 00:43:54,200
Um, cause people get caught up with the four, four, four walls.

768
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:55,200
Oh, oh yeah.

769
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,800
You can mortar of it all.

770
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,040
And it's not the case.

771
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:09,920
Like that's where, yes, you, you can meet and you can grow, but not everybody is reached

772
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,440
those four walls.

773
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:19,120
We're called to go out and we're going, you know, like how should be an extension of your

774
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,120
church?

775
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,120
Right.

776
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,280
Anywhere you go should be an extension of the church.

777
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:25,280
Yes, exactly.

778
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:32,040
And an extension of worship and you know, an extension of God.

779
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,200
Um, that's, that's what it is.

780
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,040
Um, that's what I say.

781
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,240
I don't like it.

782
00:44:40,240 --> 00:44:47,840
Sorry, but you know, you know, and the church isn't just the church on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday,

783
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,160
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

784
00:44:51,160 --> 00:45:03,560
I have, uh, I will say this because you touched up on a point that I had been arguing, debating

785
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:07,920
with people on Facebook that I knew were Christian leaders in their church and respective churches

786
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,880
who are, they were like fed up.

787
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:17,720
They're like, the government does lockdowns again, stand against it, like rebuke it and

788
00:45:17,720 --> 00:45:18,720
don't do it.

789
00:45:18,720 --> 00:45:22,440
And I was like, why you say that?

790
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,920
Because in the Bible it says, unless it's telling us to do something against God, we're

791
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:31,800
supposed to follow it as if it was God's law in the sense that we respect the land.

792
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:35,620
No matter if it tells us to pay taxes a lot or not, or the wear a mask or to not, or to

793
00:45:35,620 --> 00:45:40,000
lock up or not, it doesn't say go against it if you feel uncomfortable.

794
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,600
Like, so where are you getting this?

795
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,280
And they said, because we weren't allowed to go to church.

796
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:53,480
I said, then you don't know what church is because in the definition of the Bible, church

797
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,040
is the individual.

798
00:45:55,040 --> 00:46:00,200
That's one sense of the church, the individual as a body of Christ representation of Christ,

799
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:06,120
like you mentioned, to the second representation, church is the gathering of any individuals

800
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:09,800
in any place to represent God.

801
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:15,680
That is the second church, not a building, not a place with a cross in it, not a pews

802
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,040
in Bible and music.

803
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:26,080
But the second and most coming forth part of church is two or more people gathered for

804
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,000
Christ in representation of Christ.

805
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:30,760
And we talked about that.

806
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,680
So I'm like, so where are you getting that, that just because the government said don't

807
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,800
go to church, like an actual building, where do you get at to say that that is against

808
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:40,800
God?

809
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,920
Because God never commanded you to go to the four walls.

810
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,520
He never commanded you to go to a building.

811
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,840
He commanded you to commune with each other, whether that's two people or more.

812
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:53,320
He didn't say it has to be a minimum of 50 people or else you don't have a church.

813
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:56,760
He said two or more.

814
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:57,760
We grow together.

815
00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:58,760
Congratulations.

816
00:46:58,760 --> 00:46:59,760
You're a church.

817
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,480
You and me, Dylan on here talking, growing.

818
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:03,480
We're a church.

819
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:11,760
Whether people are listening or not, whether people listen or not, we're a church, biblically

820
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:18,040
structured church, which is the foundation of what God set upon was that he would set

821
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:22,880
up this church, this foundation upon his rock and you call it his church.

822
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:27,760
And the church and that definition is those who are chosen to follow Christ, who actually

823
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:32,200
pick up that cross and say, I will follow him.

824
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:33,200
That's it.

825
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:39,480
So whether you're against this or against that, that pride is freaking filling you up.

826
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:44,020
And I see it every single time with these people on Facebook who just have pride and

827
00:47:44,020 --> 00:47:47,280
arrogance and like, I'm for this political party.

828
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:48,680
I'm for this political party.

829
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:49,680
I'm for this or that.

830
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,320
And the government can't tell me what to do.

831
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:52,440
And I say, shut up.

832
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:53,760
I even DM him.

833
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,720
I said, you have a serpent's tongue.

834
00:47:55,720 --> 00:47:59,520
How dare you speak in front of all these people who believe in you because you're a leader

835
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:05,760
of the church and you use your position to speak against what the Bible says.

836
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:09,600
Bible's very clear about what we're supposed to do as Christians in this, in this place.

837
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,600
No matter what the government's doing, we are to obey it.

838
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:13,600
Government says, do not do this.

839
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:19,520
If it doesn't get go against what God is calling me to do, I will, I will comply because that's

840
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:21,120
what God told me to do.

841
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:25,720
We're not called to the become together and communion.

842
00:48:25,720 --> 00:48:28,480
And what does that look like?

843
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,320
You can't do it at your house.

844
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:32,320
It's two or more Dylan.

845
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,320
You get people to come to your house.

846
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,520
Hey, hey, look, fuck it.

847
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,400
I cleared that with the wife.

848
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:41,400
Okay.

849
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:42,400
Right.

850
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:50,920
You know, I, I don't agree personally with shutting down churches and schools and stuff.

851
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:55,400
At the same time, I understand where people, you know what, some people they rely, they

852
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,040
they rely on that community in doing that.

853
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,760
Oh, the scripture and quoting all that.

854
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:02,760
Yeah.

855
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:04,560
I see what you're talking about.

856
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:06,480
So I only have one question.

857
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:07,480
You know, okay.

858
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:08,480
Yeah.

859
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:13,520
Cause I know where you're going.

860
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:14,520
What a crazy.

861
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,360
So how far away are we right now from each other?

862
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,280
I drove it.

863
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,440
It's like eight and a half, nine hours.

864
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,280
Are we, are we having communion with each other right now?

865
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:27,280
Connects.

866
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:28,280
We are.

867
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:29,280
Yes.

868
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:30,280
Right.

869
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:31,280
We have technology, dude.

870
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,280
Like people will act like question as soon as church is closed.

871
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:35,280
Yeah.

872
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:36,280
Yeah.

873
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:42,320
Oh, I think this is good enough for the, no, here's the thing.

874
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:43,320
I get what you're saying.

875
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:44,320
Yes.

876
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:45,320
For some people, this is fine.

877
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:50,400
But my question is what about for the children?

878
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:51,400
What do you mean?

879
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:58,320
You like, they need physical interaction with another, like they need that.

880
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,160
It's psychologically and very much proven.

881
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:02,280
Like kids need that.

882
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:07,200
Like my six year old, he needs to be able to go out and hang out with friends and do

883
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:08,200
that.

884
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:09,200
Okay.

885
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,880
Go to the park with them.

886
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:13,160
Who says you have to stay home?

887
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,880
Who says it has to be a four walls building?

888
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:17,460
No, you can go to the park.

889
00:50:17,460 --> 00:50:18,840
That's always been allowed.

890
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,360
Even when the, when government news said, we don't recommend it in the California.

891
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,080
Cause I know what it was.

892
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,280
People would still go to the park because they can't enforce that.

893
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,040
It was with buildings they had an issue with.

894
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:30,800
And I said, it doesn't matter if it's a building or not.

895
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:32,520
What about schools though?

896
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:33,640
It doesn't matter.

897
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:34,640
School is school.

898
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:35,640
Like that's not biblical required.

899
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,480
If they shut down schools, that's their stuff that they're shutting down.

900
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:43,240
They have full right to shut down a school because that is their derogative.

901
00:50:43,240 --> 00:50:44,240
That is their property.

902
00:50:44,240 --> 00:50:45,240
That is their stuff.

903
00:50:45,240 --> 00:50:46,240
And then it just hurts our children.

904
00:50:46,240 --> 00:50:47,240
But that's them.

905
00:50:47,240 --> 00:50:48,240
It hurts our children.

906
00:50:48,240 --> 00:50:50,240
So you, right.

907
00:50:50,240 --> 00:50:53,240
But that's you now need to do.

908
00:50:53,240 --> 00:50:54,480
So right.

909
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,200
But it's like, that's where we go to normal school.

910
00:50:58,200 --> 00:50:59,200
So right.

911
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:03,400
But that's where us as individuals rely on God.

912
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,400
God, what do you need us to do?

913
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,440
He's not going to ask you to be rebellious.

914
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:11,000
He's not going to ask you to go against what he's already told you in the Bible in Titus

915
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,680
3, in Romans 2 as well.

916
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:20,440
There's multiple points in the Bible where it says that we follow the law as it is written

917
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,820
in wherever we live and we bless the people in charge.

918
00:51:23,820 --> 00:51:25,240
We don't pray against them.

919
00:51:25,240 --> 00:51:27,040
We don't pray that they get kicked out.

920
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,160
We pray that God intervenes and God blesses them.

921
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:31,520
God shows up in them.

922
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:37,400
That the Holy Spirit lays their hand on them that they experience who God is at the whole.

923
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:41,000
And because I'm listening to God, he's going to bless me for it.

924
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,200
Just like he'll bless you for it.

925
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:47,240
Just like you'll bless everyone for it because that's that consistent worship of obeying

926
00:51:47,240 --> 00:51:54,160
what has been told for us to do and any given circumstance, whether we like it or not.

927
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,200
And it's been such a hardcore argument.

928
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:04,320
You can tell I'm passionate about it because I get loud, but I'm passionate about it because

929
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:10,400
there's this false sense of doctrine that doesn't line up with the Bible and it's being

930
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:16,480
spread as if it's our God given right to do these things and stand up against the laws

931
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,400
of the land because we don't like it.

932
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:23,520
Like good job showing you don't read the Bible or good job showing you don't care about all

933
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:24,520
of it.

934
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:25,800
Like it's either all or none of it.

935
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:31,240
You can't be a little bit of it and say, oh, do we not have a right to have communion

936
00:52:31,240 --> 00:52:36,840
with one another in our building of our place of worship?

937
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:39,560
If it gets taken away, guess what?

938
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:41,960
I have I'll share this.

939
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:42,960
I understand.

940
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,960
It's a good point.

941
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:46,920
It's a good question.

942
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,880
I have a friend who lives in Afghanistan.

943
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:50,880
Okay.

944
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:52,720
He is a he's a preacher over there.

945
00:52:52,720 --> 00:52:55,060
He is a he's a pastor.

946
00:52:55,060 --> 00:52:59,720
His church just got burned down yesterday and three people got sent to the hospital

947
00:52:59,720 --> 00:53:03,540
because they were there when they got burned down by people who hate them because they

948
00:53:03,540 --> 00:53:05,040
are Christian.

949
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,640
Yes, they don't have a building anymore.

950
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,040
No, he did.

951
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:15,320
He sent me pictures of all the kids from his youth group and all the parents in the back

952
00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:20,200
alley behind his house in the alleyway, worshiping, praying, reading the Bible.

953
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:24,000
No, I because his community has nothing to do with a building.

954
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:28,080
Community has that to do with everybody who is a believer in Christ, just like you and

955
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:35,360
me gathering together in any place that we can sit, whether it be a house, an alleyway,

956
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,040
a park, a building.

957
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:38,040
Sure.

958
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,760
We're we're lucky enough over here to have a building and not have to worry about it

959
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,640
being burned down the next day.

960
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:43,640
Great.

961
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:44,640
We're spoiled.

962
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:45,640
We're very spoiled.

963
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:47,640
You might be hit with fines and everything.

964
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:48,640
Yeah, sure.

965
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:49,640
That's what we get.

966
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:55,160
We get hit with fines and you get hit with labels and stuff.

967
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:59,720
Instead of them burning the building down and getting sent to the E.R. and an E.R.

968
00:53:59,720 --> 00:54:02,520
that doesn't care if you survive because you're Christian.

969
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,960
Oh, you're part of the Christian group that got burned down.

970
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,200
OK, well, you can you can sit on death row over there.

971
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:08,560
We don't care about you.

972
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:10,680
That's what happens over there every single day.

973
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:14,120
Yeah, we have a good here in America.

974
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:17,880
I'm not ever going to say we don't because we were blessed.

975
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:18,880
Right.

976
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:24,120
But it's that spoiled nature of like they won't let me go to my church building.

977
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,280
Oh, what?

978
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,480
Like they get all like huffy puffy.

979
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:33,320
I'm like, you think that that's you think that that's the only community you have?

980
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,640
You think that's the only way you can commune with each other?

981
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:39,560
That's the only way that you guys can hang out together or be a ministry?

982
00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,440
I don't think it is.

983
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:47,600
That's not the only way, but I think it's the it's the main way that most people know

984
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,400
how to today.

985
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:50,400
Right.

986
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:57,120
And because of the comfortability that we have here in the States, we don't know.

987
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,760
The other way, they grew up in a house church.

988
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:04,520
It's a little different, like, oh, just go to somebody else's house because they're

989
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:05,520
in the church.

990
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,600
Now, see, most people, they're used to the brick and mortar, the four walls.

991
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,640
But for them, yeah, that is and it feels like an attack.

992
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:14,680
So they become defensive as well.

993
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:15,680
Right.

994
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:19,280
Because they don't understand what church really is.

995
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:25,840
Because if you have a full understanding of what church is and you believe that you are

996
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:31,760
the representation of Christ in your life on a daily walk, then it doesn't matter where

997
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:32,760
you meet.

998
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:37,240
It doesn't matter where it's at, because if you truly understand the definition of

999
00:55:37,240 --> 00:55:42,280
church, which that is you as an individual and church in a group is two or more people

1000
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:43,280
meeting.

1001
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:47,560
If you understand that, then it doesn't matter where.

1002
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:51,600
Because that is what church is and God is there and God's going to bless you for it

1003
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:57,280
and God's going to protect you and be a provider and give you the Holy Spirit to bring peace

1004
00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:58,280
during those times.

1005
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,200
And that's that's the difference.

1006
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:04,400
It's like we just have to adapt to whatever the country throws at us.

1007
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:05,400
Sure.

1008
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:11,300
But until it tells me to stop worshipping God, I'm told to follow the law, whether

1009
00:56:11,300 --> 00:56:13,400
I like it or not.

1010
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:18,680
And for those people, you know, that's all they know for them, that's what it feels like.

1011
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,640
I mean, you understand that.

1012
00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,600
But that means that they don't understand what church is.

1013
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:32,120
OK, well, people, either side of the aisle are sheep and they're not they're not a clip

1014
00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:38,800
and they're not well, they're not articulate enough in what they know.

1015
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:43,760
Scripture or whatever it is to know the facts and to know things like that, most people

1016
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:53,840
aren't said they don't they like the intelligence or the knowledge, let's say, of what is what

1017
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:54,840
is the church?

1018
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:55,840
What does it mean?

1019
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,720
And you know, so.

1020
00:56:59,720 --> 00:57:07,520
So whose whose fault is it then that they do not believe leaders should be good in telling

1021
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:13,480
the people, but also the leaders, you know, because you live in a country that says separation

1022
00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:19,880
of church and state, the church should be if they're free to govern themselves.

1023
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:21,040
That's where I'm like, OK, I get that.

1024
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:27,360
My whole thing is I'll just I'll say this because I'll let you finish that with it.

1025
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,200
Don't care what you think, what you believe.

1026
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:35,760
I just know that no matter what it is with all this going on, if it goes on again, I

1027
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,880
need to think about the kids and about the youth.

1028
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:43,360
You look at developmental issues and everything goes on.

1029
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:49,080
If what happened after the last time we locked down and did all this stuff, it's detrimental

1030
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,040
to the kids' development and health.

1031
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:57,080
You've seen a rise in suicide, depression and anxiety throughout these kids.

1032
00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,480
That's my only main concern I have.

1033
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:02,440
And that's where I stand on it.

1034
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:06,240
And it's more or less when you think of the future for the kids.

1035
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:07,880
Also, I don't even make kids.

1036
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:10,680
They get sick all the time and they bounce back.

1037
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:11,680
Sure.

1038
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:19,000
So I and you know, as I said, you know, people that know that has cancer.

1039
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:23,480
He was on people who was like cancer, but ain't nothing.

1040
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,200
Oh, and that's where he stands on it.

1041
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,340
You know, each person is different.

1042
00:58:27,340 --> 00:58:31,320
You know, it's also for those people who really want to meet at church.

1043
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:37,000
Most churches have a courtyard meet outside if the way you can still follow the law.

1044
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,320
You really have to be there.

1045
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:41,320
Yeah, I.

1046
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:42,320
Yeah.

1047
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:50,240
The stance on this is that there's nothing sacred about a church building.

1048
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:57,440
And I said that before and people I've definitely been blocked because of that statement.

1049
00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:05,680
And thinking that there's something sacred, he's over there like, I'm going to meet myself.

1050
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:08,680
There's nothing.

1051
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:12,280
There's nothing.

1052
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:13,720
My mic, everything I'm done.

1053
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,000
Now it's just messing.

1054
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,840
There's nothing sacred about a church building.

1055
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:25,320
The idea is that I understand your children are special and they are.

1056
00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:28,600
You know, God says that about the kids.

1057
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:29,680
Correct.

1058
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:33,520
Does he say like, you must provide a building for the kids because they don't get to talk

1059
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:34,520
with each other.

1060
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:35,520
We have an issue.

1061
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:36,520
No, no, he doesn't.

1062
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:42,320
When it comes to when it comes to my whole thing is like, you know what?

1063
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:47,480
As a youth pastor, when they canceled youth group and it was on zoom, it's that zoom does

1064
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:48,760
not cut it for the kids.

1065
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:49,760
Right.

1066
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:50,760
Go to the park.

1067
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:51,760
Yeah, go to the park.

1068
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:54,480
You know, like that's still legal.

1069
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,240
Yeah, yeah, I know.

1070
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:57,240
But you guys have Waller Park.

1071
00:59:57,240 --> 00:59:58,240
A lot.

1072
00:59:58,240 --> 00:59:59,240
It's a lot harder.

1073
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:04,480
Get a lot of parents to go to a park.

1074
01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:07,040
And then who's fault is that?

1075
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:10,160
Well, that's the parents because you know what?

1076
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,080
You can't at night go into a park.

1077
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:14,120
So that'll sketch you when there's a lot of drug addicts.

1078
01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:15,440
You don't live in the best place.

1079
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:18,360
So it's safer to do it inside a building.

1080
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:19,800
That's the only thing on that.

1081
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,640
And like I said, it's my whole thing is the kids.

1082
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:23,640
Right.

1083
01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:26,480
And I am with you and I will back you up.

1084
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:28,920
I need and I need a place where I can watch them.

1085
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,520
I worry about people coming in and out.

1086
01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:32,880
That's my whole thing.

1087
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:37,640
So I will I will back you up and say that in the sense that for kids, it's nice to have

1088
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:39,420
a safe spot, a safe place.

1089
01:00:39,420 --> 01:00:42,240
You can call like this is where we're going.

1090
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:47,980
I think parents tend to when there's a change, a lot of times in the church setting, parents

1091
01:00:47,980 --> 01:00:52,960
are usually not too forward about doing the right thing for their kids.

1092
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,040
It's usually like, well, I don't want to do that.

1093
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,800
And it's usually a lot of selfish reasons or it's just like, I don't I don't want to

1094
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:02,520
get myself up and deal with this, too, because now I have to worry about going to pick them

1095
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:03,520
up again or whatever.

1096
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,240
And it has a lot of stuff on that.

1097
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:06,560
That's a lot of stress on them.

1098
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:08,960
And they're doing that wrong, too.

1099
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:15,000
Great because biblically, we're supposed to in humility, which we talked about, is is

1100
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:18,760
understand that someone else's needs are more important than our own.

1101
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:23,120
And we see that failing in a lot of the parenting and a lot of the church members and a lot

1102
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:26,200
of people in general.

1103
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:32,000
When when it comes to like the lockdown stuff, I don't think we try hard enough and I don't

1104
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:34,420
think we do enough.

1105
01:01:34,420 --> 01:01:36,840
And I say that in the sense of this.

1106
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:43,160
If if let's say one of the pastors at your church, for example, they have a home, they

1107
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:44,160
have a garage.

1108
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:49,720
What if they decided to pay 50 bucks a month to put everything in their garage into a storage?

1109
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:51,160
So it's out of the way.

1110
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:54,800
And then they just put chairs in the garage so they can all kind of hang out, have a foosball

1111
01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:55,800
table.

1112
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:58,000
Now you got youth group at the garage.

1113
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,400
But it's inconvenient because they have to pay extra or they have to move stuff or they

1114
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:04,920
have to empty stuff or they have to make it safe or whatever.

1115
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,600
But then that means that they're not doing everything that they can rather than they

1116
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:12,720
like to sit behind their computer and complain than rather than do the actual work.

1117
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:17,560
This is true, but we also pay for a building, have a building.

1118
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:18,560
Right.

1119
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:20,120
But that's that's a luxury.

1120
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:23,680
That's not required.

1121
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:24,920
Building is a luxury.

1122
01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:28,840
We will never there will be a time where we're not even allowed to have a church anymore.

1123
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:29,840
And that's common.

1124
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:30,840
That's promise.

1125
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:32,600
That's a that's a prophecy.

1126
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,520
I think that's more where we won't have a choice.

1127
01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:42,040
This scares a lot of the people because there's an easy way they get that started.

1128
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:44,560
And I think people are, you know, and I see in that sense.

1129
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:46,600
Yes, of course.

1130
01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:51,240
Have that incident that inclination to.

1131
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,920
Fight that because I mean, it makes sense.

1132
01:02:54,920 --> 01:03:04,040
I said, I just, you know, it's the kids, you know, if a lock a lockdown does happen because.

1133
01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:07,480
It's really easy to say the fear.

1134
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:08,480
It is.

1135
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:09,480
That's all I care about.

1136
01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:10,480
Right.

1137
01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:11,480
Children.

1138
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:12,480
Right.

1139
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:13,480
And I agree.

1140
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:15,480
And I'm saying that there should be a safe spot.

1141
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:17,360
But then we see leaders of the church.

1142
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:22,200
Like for example, I was saying with like a pastor who has a garage, maybe or or even

1143
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:25,360
a backyard, maybe and say, hey, guys, come over to my house.

1144
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:29,440
We're going to hang out in the backyard, have some bonfire stuff and discuss the word.

1145
01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:31,680
But you don't see them doing that because it's inconvenient.

1146
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:35,480
But you don't see them doing that because like, man, I really don't want to be a host.

1147
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:37,840
Man, I don't really want to give my time like that.

1148
01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:39,360
I don't want to do that kind of stuff.

1149
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:40,520
That's not what I was.

1150
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:41,980
We we pay for a building.

1151
01:03:41,980 --> 01:03:44,880
So we should have to get the right to use the building.

1152
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:49,280
That's the government's building, for one, because they own everything land wise, building

1153
01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:50,280
wise.

1154
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:51,440
You're just renting.

1155
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:53,240
And when it comes down to it, they want it back.

1156
01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:57,760
They can have it back because that doesn't define what the church is.

1157
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:03,120
And I know that's a little off topic from the worship, but I had a couch, though.

1158
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,120
I read couches are that red.

1159
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:07,680
That red couch has to come with you guys wherever you go.

1160
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:08,680
I don't care.

1161
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:09,680
I don't care.

1162
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:14,920
I'll go in there and find some red couch that has been there longer than anybody else.

1163
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:16,200
You put it over your shoulder.

1164
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:17,440
You take it out with you.

1165
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:19,440
You're like, it's fine with me.

1166
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,280
I'll fit in my little Honda Accord.

1167
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:24,800
Yeah, I do.

1168
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:31,760
Eventually when I have a whole episode talking about like kind of like biblical prophecy

1169
01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:34,680
because you know me, I study it a lot.

1170
01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:38,480
A lot.

1171
01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:44,560
And I can even go through and show you all the prophecies from Daniel that were fulfilled

1172
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:48,720
over the years, undeniably fulfilled over the years.

1173
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:51,400
And I'd love to go on and talk about that and stuff.

1174
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:52,400
And we will.

1175
01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:53,920
We will eventually.

1176
01:04:53,920 --> 01:05:00,320
But I all this stuff about the church, it ties in with worship because like I said before,

1177
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:05,880
a lot of people have the idea that worship is just going to the building, singing my

1178
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,440
songs and that's worship.

1179
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,360
And we see it's consistently not in the Bible.

1180
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:13,280
It's not ever explained that way.

1181
01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:14,840
It's never told that way.

1182
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:22,280
I will say in Colossians 3, 16, it does say, let the word of the Christ dwell in you richly

1183
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:28,320
teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom and singing psalms and hymns and spiritual

1184
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:31,440
songs with thankfulness in your heart to God.

1185
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:33,700
And this is just saying that we need to sing praises.

1186
01:05:33,700 --> 01:05:35,560
We need to be allowed.

1187
01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:38,320
We need to be expressive to God.

1188
01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:44,720
This is really easily just the show that it's more than just the sacrifice in life.

1189
01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:50,400
We're all encompassing sacrificing our life and we express thankfulness and gratitude

1190
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:58,080
because we understand his position in our lives and his position as authority and everything.

1191
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:03,040
And I only brought up the whole church thing and the people on Facebook who are saying

1192
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:05,280
like rebel, rebel, rebel.

1193
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:11,720
And I'm just like, do you not understand that God is not a God of fear?

1194
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:18,640
And when things happen, just know that church, what the actual definition of church is and

1195
01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:21,800
any place that you want to meet, you can meet up.

1196
01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,200
People just don't do it because it's inconvenient.

1197
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:27,280
They like to point fingers elsewhere to say, well, it's out of my control because we're

1198
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,200
not allowed to go to the church anymore.

1199
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,840
Well, whose backyard can we go hang out at?

1200
01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:33,200
What do you mean?

1201
01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:34,760
Whose backyard can we go hang out?

1202
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:40,080
People have property, I know, especially in California, there's pastors with yards, garages,

1203
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:41,080
houses.

1204
01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:42,400
Whose house can we go crash?

1205
01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:44,800
I'm not one of those.

1206
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:51,600
I know, but I know who are because I know my church is over there and I know who's who.

1207
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:54,040
And I've been to a lot of their house.

1208
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:55,920
People that got some money in houses.

1209
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:58,080
I'm like, that must be nice.

1210
01:06:58,080 --> 01:06:59,080
And yeah.

1211
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:04,000
And those people, those are the people that the church, the group of community needs to

1212
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:09,080
rely on and say, hey, since we can't go to their building, can we come to your yard?

1213
01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:10,520
Can we come to your house?

1214
01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:17,240
Can we rely on you as another member of Christ, the body of Christ to do this?

1215
01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:18,240
And they say no.

1216
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:23,200
Then do they really understand who God is and what humility is and what living life

1217
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:29,040
like Christ is or doing your part to know who God is?

1218
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:31,760
And it's it's usually a no.

1219
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:36,480
We're so spoiled in the US where we don't understand what we have and we like to abuse

1220
01:07:36,480 --> 01:07:40,720
it rather than take care of the problems by doing the right thing because it points fingers

1221
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:43,560
back to us.

1222
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:49,080
Yeah, we had some technical difficulties.

1223
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:52,080
Devil attacking us is fun.

1224
01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:56,400
That could be the enemy one way or another.

1225
01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:58,440
We're still we're tracking on.

1226
01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:07,960
But that's that's I gave my two cents about that and what you know, it's all responsibilities

1227
01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:12,440
if you are truly a follower of Christ, it's all our responsibilities to live up to that

1228
01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:16,040
and to follow Christ, not just one or the other.

1229
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:19,200
That includes everybody that says they're Christian under in the church, that they have

1230
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:22,120
a responsibility to Christ.

1231
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:28,120
And no, I brought up the end time stuff prophecies because I know when when people are going

1232
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:32,240
to start getting persecuted for this, whenever that does happen, like Christians, it was

1233
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:35,280
to see so many people fall off and say, I'm not Christian.

1234
01:08:35,280 --> 01:08:36,280
No, I never was.

1235
01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:39,040
I only did it because I felt like the moral thing to do.

1236
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,680
I didn't want to be a part associated.

1237
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:44,400
It's going to be so hardcore.

1238
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:50,320
And from the words of Brad Stein, which he is a comedian, but he has some really good

1239
01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:51,320
like actual teachings.

1240
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:58,680
From the words of Brad Stein, he said, what are you willing to die for?

1241
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:03,080
Like legitimately willing to die for?

1242
01:09:03,080 --> 01:09:07,440
And there's no question that's a very good question.

1243
01:09:07,440 --> 01:09:12,760
Yeah, because if someone came into your house and was like, are you a Christian?

1244
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:17,440
And you're like, yes, they're like, I am going to kill you because you're a Christian.

1245
01:09:17,440 --> 01:09:19,360
OK, anybody listening?

1246
01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:22,880
Is that something like I found with the 12 gauge?

1247
01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:24,160
I'm like, cool.

1248
01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:25,160
Send me up to him.

1249
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:28,960
I'm glad to see him early, I guess.

1250
01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:29,960
It's scary.

1251
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:34,140
I know I'm going to get a gauge.

1252
01:09:34,140 --> 01:09:35,880
Would you like to meet him?

1253
01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:36,880
No.

1254
01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:42,680
To the Lord, forgive me Lord.

1255
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:47,120
No, it's true, though.

1256
01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:49,360
What are you willing to die for?

1257
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:54,760
And you can see that even with the you know, remember, I know this is off topic of worship,

1258
01:09:54,760 --> 01:10:03,160
but it just comes back to our life living daily in obedience and reverence of him.

1259
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:07,720
But you remember in the the Garden of Samadhi?

1260
01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,520
Garden where Jesus and the disciples and they came.

1261
01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:13,400
I'm staying awake.

1262
01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:14,400
You know this.

1263
01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:18,560
I know I'm saying they were falling asleep.

1264
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:26,200
Yeah, they were falling asleep and you know, they came for Jesus, right?

1265
01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:33,360
And someone was like, no, you ain't and got up and cut off the guy's ear.

1266
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:34,360
Right.

1267
01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:41,440
Remember this?

1268
01:10:41,440 --> 01:10:46,920
And at that point, Jesus looked as like, no, this is this is this is not that's not how

1269
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:48,720
this is going to go.

1270
01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:50,960
And he healed the guy's ear.

1271
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:54,720
And that guy was like, well, what the he just put my ear back on.

1272
01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:59,800
But hearing this, some guy comes to attack me and my family.

1273
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:03,160
I shoot him and I pray for him.

1274
01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:04,960
I don't think that that's the message.

1275
01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:06,880
That is what I heard.

1276
01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:07,880
I agree.

1277
01:11:07,880 --> 01:11:08,880
I like it.

1278
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,680
OK, you heard it here first in the GDP show.

1279
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:13,720
Oh, my God.

1280
01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:16,760
We're going to talk about it, dude.

1281
01:11:16,760 --> 01:11:21,800
One of the one of these times we've got to talk about weapons and stuff like that, because

1282
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,520
that's such a good topic.

1283
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,680
Yes, weapons are amazing.

1284
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:32,280
I mean, I got a twenty two somewhere, but how do you not know?

1285
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:35,080
OK, well, to be fair, yeah, never mind.

1286
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:36,080
It is it is a twenty two.

1287
01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:37,080
It's a twenty two rifle.

1288
01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:38,080
It's just somewhere.

1289
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:39,080
I know where it's at.

1290
01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,760
I mean, I don't think about it for a second, but I remember it's at.

1291
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:47,880
This is why some people shouldn't have guns because they don't keep track of them.

1292
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:50,040
I have two places for it and I don't have any kids.

1293
01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:51,040
So that's a positive.

1294
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:52,040
You know, that's fair.

1295
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:53,040
That's fair.

1296
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:56,040
If I had kids, I'd be a little more concerned.

1297
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:57,040
I do that.

1298
01:11:57,040 --> 01:12:01,640
And next thing I know, I was like, look at that's not the toy gun.

1299
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:04,060
Put that down now.

1300
01:12:04,060 --> 01:12:05,060
That's not the nerf.

1301
01:12:05,060 --> 01:12:06,060
It's not nerf.

1302
01:12:06,060 --> 01:12:07,060
It's never nothing, dad.

1303
01:12:07,060 --> 01:12:08,060
No, it's nothing for nothing.

1304
01:12:08,060 --> 01:12:09,060
Not a sponsor.

1305
01:12:09,060 --> 01:12:10,060
Not a sponsor.

1306
01:12:10,060 --> 01:12:23,280
No, I, I only I want to finish off with one verse.

1307
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:26,280
OK, only one verse.

1308
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:27,280
Two verses.

1309
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:28,280
I'm sorry.

1310
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:30,200
Wait, you be a man of your word.

1311
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:31,200
I'll finish.

1312
01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:32,200
I'll do one verse.

1313
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:33,200
I'll do one verse.

1314
01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,200
OK, Romans 11, thirty six.

1315
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:42,440
OK, for him.

1316
01:12:42,440 --> 01:12:49,720
Or from him and through him and to him are all things and to him be the glory forever.

1317
01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:52,860
Amen.

1318
01:12:52,860 --> 01:12:55,960
This is the conclusion of Romans 11.

1319
01:12:55,960 --> 01:13:00,640
Paul builds on the question he asked the previous verse, who has given anything to God valuable

1320
01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:04,720
enough that God owes him something back?

1321
01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:10,280
And with this, the answer is nobody.

1322
01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:12,920
God doesn't owe us anything.

1323
01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:17,760
In this verse, Paul explains why everything that is in the universe came from God.

1324
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:22,040
To start with, he is the creator, the source of all things as good.

1325
01:13:22,040 --> 01:13:27,560
How could we ever give him anything if he doesn't already have?

1326
01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:32,120
And second, all things are through God.

1327
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:37,400
Not only is God the source of all things, he holds them together, he sustains everything

1328
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:43,400
he that is is actively and present in the work of keeping the universe running and all

1329
01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:46,200
things that exist continue through him.

1330
01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:50,520
And third, all things are to him are for him.

1331
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:55,360
In all other words, everything that exists has been made for God's purpose.

1332
01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:57,560
They all reflect glory back to him.

1333
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,880
Nothing exists that doesn't serve his great plan and purpose for all things.

1334
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:09,560
I will lightly say and we will talk about this too sometime that that doesn't mean bad things

1335
01:14:09,560 --> 01:14:13,560
happen and he's sitting there like good, good, bad things.

1336
01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:17,920
Yes, because the world has bad things and that was not the original intent, but it was

1337
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:20,960
the possibility of free choice by humans.

1338
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:22,600
And we brought sin into the world.

1339
01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:26,520
Freaking Adam and Eve.

1340
01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:29,000
And yeah, we brought sin in this world.

1341
01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:33,280
But that's the consequences because that was a covenant and God doesn't break covenant.

1342
01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:34,280
He said a covenant.

1343
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:37,240
He said, hey, this is what's going to happen.

1344
01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:41,840
And so when that happened, everything was going, you know, crazy because now at this

1345
01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:43,560
point the flush is taken over.

1346
01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:46,260
We understand the right, the good and evil.

1347
01:14:46,260 --> 01:14:47,320
We know what it is.

1348
01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:52,200
And so our bodies crave things that are our own understanding, which is not of God, which

1349
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:54,600
is why we crave sin.

1350
01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:56,520
And we talked about sin before on an episode.

1351
01:14:56,520 --> 01:14:57,520
Go back and read it.

1352
01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:02,000
I just wanted to clarify that this is not what is in.

1353
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:03,480
Yeah, that one.

1354
01:15:03,480 --> 01:15:10,840
But this is not saying that God is up there sitting there like, ah, give that person cancer.

1355
01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:12,720
Make that person get hit by a bus.

1356
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:16,120
They would just know this.

1357
01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:22,240
That's that's stuff that happens in this world because sin exists and people are fallible

1358
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:25,800
and they will make mistakes and stuff happens.

1359
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:32,560
And God can use those things for the greater of his kingdom and glorify him as long as

1360
01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:39,360
we trust him through those things that happen and rely on him when those things happen.

1361
01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:42,040
And that is going to be part of worship.

1362
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,680
That constant.

1363
01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:50,320
Thankful gratitude towards him and that constant reverence of him and that constant obedience

1364
01:15:50,320 --> 01:15:51,980
to him is all worship.

1365
01:15:51,980 --> 01:15:55,200
And that's why we're doing worship today.

1366
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:56,200
Any thoughts?

1367
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,280
No, I think that was good.

1368
01:15:58,280 --> 01:15:59,280
I just.

1369
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:01,280
Hey, men and amen.

1370
01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:04,200
This is a long conversation.

1371
01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:05,200
Definitely a longer episode.

1372
01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:06,200
Yeah.

1373
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:12,600
I mean, to be fair, there are some bloopers in the first 20.

1374
01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:19,800
So and we'll see if they'll make it.

1375
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,320
Yeah.

1376
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:25,960
We had to snack down on a smoke is uncrustable right before we recorded.

1377
01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:32,680
So it was me.

1378
01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:33,680
It was you.

1379
01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:36,680
I put that on our.

1380
01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:37,680
Yeah.

1381
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:41,000
I take talk as all the bloopers.

1382
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:42,000
Yeah.

1383
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:44,000
So go follow us there.

1384
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:47,960
I check out the blooper reel we have there.

1385
01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:52,640
You'll be up there in a little bit.

1386
01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:53,640
Right.

1387
01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:55,640
I'll work on it.

1388
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:56,640
Yeah.

1389
01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:57,640
All righty.

1390
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:03,120
Well, I'll pray us out and we're going to end this episode.

1391
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:07,280
All right, Lord.

1392
01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:10,240
Thank you for everything that we.

1393
01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:12,440
Get to experience because of you.

1394
01:17:12,440 --> 01:17:19,000
I thank you for your redeeming love and that you are constantly with us whenever we need

1395
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:20,000
you.

1396
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:21,600
I praise you for the good times.

1397
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:23,040
I praise you for the bad times.

1398
01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:26,960
I thank you for the good times and I thank you for the bad times.

1399
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:31,680
I thank you that you bring me out of those times and that you bring me into a new understanding

1400
01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:35,400
of you, that you bring peace, that you bring understanding, that you bring love, you bring

1401
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:39,440
joy with anything and everything that I deal with on a daily basis.

1402
01:17:39,440 --> 01:17:45,840
I pray for those who listen to this episode that that they just not hear it from us, but

1403
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:48,800
hear it from your word as we share your word.

1404
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:54,520
And I pray that they take your word as truth and not our own.

1405
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:58,760
I just pray that we're able to guide them the right way to understanding who you are

1406
01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:04,720
and discuss who you are and what you are wanting us to do when it comes to worshiping you.

1407
01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:07,600
And I thank you for your understanding and your grace.

1408
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,520
In Jesus name, amen.

1409
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:12,320
Amen.

1410
01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:20,600
So on that note, we're going to end this podcast and we will be seeing you on the next episode

1411
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,120
we're dealing as hosting.

1412
01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:25,000
And we'll see on talking on who knows.

1413
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:26,000
We don't.

1414
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:27,000
Yeah.

1415
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:32,000
Well, see you all in the flippity flop.

1416
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:55,780
Bye-bye.
