1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000
And for your ministry tonight and for all of you who participated in the early part of our service,

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:14,000
let's turn now in the Word of God to 2 Peter as we look again into chapter 1 and think about the theme of this book,

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:22,000
which is growing in Christ, the key verse, chapter 3 verse 18,

4
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:34,000
which is evidenced by the manner in which one responds to trials.

5
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:41,000
It's not really knowing more of the Bible or quoting more verses, nothing wrong with those things of course,

6
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:49,000
but really growing in Christ is our maturing in our experience with God.

7
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:56,000
And that maturing is then evidenced by the way that we respond to the trials of our lives.

8
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:05,000
God has given us life in His Son Jesus Christ and the inevitable result of life is growth.

9
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,000
Although admittedly there may be periods of latency or dormancy,

10
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:20,000
and although growth occurs at different speeds, there is nonetheless growth where there is life.

11
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:28,000
Beginning in chapter 1 and verse 3 of 2 Peter, we learn some basic facts about Christian growth and maturity.

12
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:38,000
In the first place we see that Christian growth is supported by the root of genuine salvation.

13
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,000
There is really no growth as a Christian until one becomes one.

14
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:50,000
There is no maturing in the Lord until one belongs to the Lord.

15
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,000
And so the root of Christian growth is genuine salvation.

16
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,000
He describes that root as involving faith.

17
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000
In fact, he says it's a faith of the same kind as ours.

18
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:12,000
That is, the faith that has saved you is that same kind of faith that has saved anybody that's been saved

19
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:18,000
in the last however many thousands of years since God's been saving people.

20
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,000
It is a reasonable faith.

21
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000
It's not just merely leaping into the dark into whatever may be out there.

22
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:32,000
It is a reasonable faith that is based upon the promises of God, God who is trustworthy.

23
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:43,000
It is a repentant faith, a faith that involves our turning from all that we've trusted in before to God Himself and God alone.

24
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Then genuine salvation also involves knowledge, the full knowledge, the genuine knowledge of God as he talks about it in these verses.

25
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,000
It involves a call from God.

26
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
He speaks of God who called us by His own glory and excellence.

27
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,000
That is God's summoning us to salvation.

28
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
Genuine salvation finally involves a grant.

29
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Because when we're saved, God by His divine power grants to us everything we will ever need in this life and in the life to come.

30
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:27,000
He also tells us regarding Christian growth that it is the provision of God.

31
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:36,000
God has provided His promises, which He calls magnificent and precious.

32
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:43,000
He says that by these promises we become partakers of the divine nature.

33
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:54,000
We partake of Christ's likeness and in doing so we escape the corruption that is so prominent in our world.

34
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:59,000
He also tells us that growing in Christ is a pattern, it's the following of a pattern.

35
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000
It's not a haphazard thing.

36
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:15,000
He tells us that faith is involved, but out of that faith we are to provide with diligence for some qualities.

37
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Qualities that flow out of faith, they ensue out of faith like that telescope you may have played with as a child.

38
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,000
It was just about this long and then you begin to extend it until it was maybe that long.

39
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:40,000
He says that faith, out of our faith, we're to provide for the seven qualities that are mentioned in verses five, six, and seven.

40
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:54,000
In other words, as we grow in our Lord and we face trials, there are times that we will need to evidence moral excellence,

41
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,000
a courageous goodness in the face of temptation.

42
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:08,000
There are times that we will evidence self-control or a true God focus to our lives,

43
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,000
or a godliness, or a brotherly kindness.

44
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:18,000
The point is that our growth in Christ follows a pattern, and as that pattern is fulfilled in us,

45
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:26,000
it makes us more like Jesus because really these qualities are an expression of what he was like in the world.

46
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,000
He tells us that our growing in Christ is important.

47
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,000
It's not something that we can be haphazard about.

48
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,000
We are to give diligence to it.

49
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,000
He says it's important because it will bring to us an effective life, verse eight.

50
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:51,000
He says if these qualities are yours and they're increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful.

51
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,000
We'll have an effective life.

52
00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:00,000
It's also important because as we grow in Christ, we certify our calling.

53
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:09,000
Verse 10 says, be all the more diligent to make certain about his calling and choosing you.

54
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:16,000
My growth in Jesus Christ certifies that I've truly been one of his called ones.

55
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:21,000
And then in verse 11, he tells us that we are to give diligence to grow.

56
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,000
It's important because it will bring to us an abundant reward.

57
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000
He says in this way, the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior,

58
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Jesus Christ, will be abundantly supplied to you.

59
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:46,000
If we want to have an abundant reward then, it means giving diligence now in growing in our faith in Jesus Christ.

60
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000
So what's the problem?

61
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000
What's the problem?

62
00:06:51,000 --> 00:07:01,000
The problem that all of us have is doing this with consistency because we share a common difficulty.

63
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,000
Peter alludes to it.

64
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Let me read some verses here beginning in verse 12, our text for tonight.

65
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:15,000
Therefore, I shall always be ready to remind you of these things even though you already know them

66
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,000
and have been established in the truth which is present with you.

67
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:28,000
And I consider it right as long as I am in this earthly dwelling to stir you up by way of reminder

68
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:36,000
knowing that the laying aside of my earthly dwelling is eminent as also our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.

69
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:45,000
And I will also be diligent that at any time after my departure you may be able to call these things to mind.

70
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:54,000
What is the problem that you and I struggle with that causes us to be inconsistent in our growth?

71
00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Well, Peter suggests here that the problem is one of forgetfulness.

72
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Somebody has said there's an advantage to having a poor memory.

73
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,000
You have less to forget.

74
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:17,000
To err is human, to forget routine for most of us.

75
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Somebody has said I have three basic problems in life.

76
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:28,000
The first one is I have a poor memory and I can't remember the other two.

77
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:35,000
All of us have short memories.

78
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:40,000
We have quick forgetters.

79
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:48,000
So Peter in his language here says I want to remind you of some things.

80
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:57,000
Verse 12 he says I shall always be ready to keep on reminding you.

81
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Parents know what that's like.

82
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:06,000
To keep on reminding children.

83
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:15,000
And God knows what it's like to keep on reminding us parents because we easily forget.

84
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,000
He says in verse 13 I want to stir you up.

85
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,000
The word means literally I want to awaken you out of sleep.

86
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:30,000
I want to stir you up to bring you to full alertness by way of a reminder.

87
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:35,000
He says after my departure I want you to be able to call these things to mind.

88
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,000
Why is he saying this?

89
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Because these people were just like us.

90
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:45,000
They easily forgot important things.

91
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,000
In chapter 3 he begins the chapter with the same thrust.

92
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:55,000
He says I'm writing to you this second letter in which I am stirring up your sincere mind

93
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:02,000
by way of a reminder that you should remember.

94
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:11,000
So Peter tells us that the key to being consistent in our growing is remembering several things.

95
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:18,000
We'll just look at a couple of them tonight before we go to downstairs in our time of fellowship.

96
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:26,000
In the first place he says remember the things you know.

97
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Notice how he says this.

98
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:32,000
I shall always be ready to remind you of these things.

99
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Again in verse 15 he talks about these things.

100
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,000
What are these things?

101
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:43,000
They are the things that they already are aware of.

102
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,000
What he calls in verse 12 the truth that is present with you.

103
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,000
It's not absent.

104
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,000
You know it.

105
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:56,000
The truth was actively resident in their lives.

106
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:01,000
It was there but they needed to be continually brought back to the basics.

107
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Remember this.

108
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Remember these things.

109
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Peter says if you and I are going to consistently grow it begins by remembering the things that we already know.

110
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Old truth must never become commonplace.

111
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
That's the tendency for all of us.

112
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:35,000
Truth that we've heard before sometimes is counted as trite or stale or somehow unremarkable.

113
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:41,000
So continually we need to be brought back to the old truths.

114
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:48,000
Brought back to the basics in a fresh way so that we are reminded.

115
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000
It's been long said repetition is the mother of learning.

116
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:56,000
We need to keep on saying the things that we've heard before.

117
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,000
Keep on going back to them and bringing them to our minds again.

118
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,000
What are some of these things?

119
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Well if we just look at the context here it's salvation as the gift of God's righteousness.

120
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,000
It's not something that we earn or deserve.

121
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,000
It's not something we perform for in order to get.

122
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,000
It is the gift of God's righteousness.

123
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,000
It is a grant that is bestowed freely upon us.

124
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:32,000
These things would also include the fact that God has already given us everything that we'll ever need.

125
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:37,000
If we don't remember that we're liable to be out here searching for some new experience.

126
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:43,000
Some new thing that we hope will get us over the top on the Christian life.

127
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:49,000
We'll fall sucker to the line that says, well you need to have this or you need to do that

128
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,000
if you're really going to grow as a Christian.

129
00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:01,000
We need to remind ourselves God's already given to us everything that we need pertaining to life and godliness.

130
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,000
We may not have used it yet, but it's there.

131
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:10,000
These things would include the fact that our destiny is an eternal kingdom.

132
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Oh how easily we begin to focus on this life and its passing concerns.

133
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Peter says we need to keep being brought back to this truth that we are citizens of a kingdom that is forever.

134
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,000
An eternal kingdom and live like it.

135
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:37,000
These things would include the fact that it requires effort and discipline to grow in our faith.

136
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000
It doesn't just happen automatically.

137
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,000
It requires diligence that we must apply.

138
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:52,000
We are responsible to provide out of our faith for these various qualities and the pattern that he's given us in verses 5 through 7.

139
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,000
That's not God's responsibility. It's ours.

140
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,000
We are to provide for this.

141
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,000
It comes out of the basic package of salvation that God has given,

142
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:09,000
but we are the ones who are to provide lavishly for it out of our faith.

143
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,000
These are the things that we have to keep being reminded of.

144
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:20,000
So easily somewhere, somehow we all tend to lose the wonder of it all.

145
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:27,000
The freshness of God's working in our lives, that early devotion to Jesus.

146
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:32,000
We need to remember the things that we already know.

147
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Peter says if we are going to grow consistently as Christians, we also need to remember the limitation that we face.

148
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,000
We see this in verses 13 through 15.

149
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:54,000
You know, easily we forget that our lives are not unlimited.

150
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:59,000
That's especially a tendency when you're young.

151
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:08,000
As you get older, you're reminded more that life is limited.

152
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:14,000
But all of us need to remember the fact that we are limited in our opportunities.

153
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:22,000
There is a cessation to life in this world with its opportunities as well as its trials.

154
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:30,000
As we received a telephone call the other night informing us of the death of Miriam,

155
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:35,000
John and Lydia Rhodes' daughter in that terrible accident, our hearts were grieved.

156
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:43,000
No sooner did we hang up the telephone than in two minutes we received a telephone call from another direction in Kentucky.

157
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:53,000
We were informed of, again, an automobile accident that took the life of an 18-year-old girl,

158
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:59,000
a friend of my wife, one of her best friends back in high school, nursing school.

159
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:05,000
An 18-year-old girl coming home from babysitting.

160
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:11,000
It had been raining and the street was flooded and she hit a puddle of water that was deeper than she thought.

161
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:19,000
It threw her into a tree and she was killed instantly, taken into eternity.

162
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:25,000
We all need to be reminded of the fact that we are limited in this world.

163
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,000
We don't know when death is coming, but it is coming.

164
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:36,000
We each have an appointment with it unless Jesus gloriously returns first.

165
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:42,000
It may come for us sooner as it did for that young girl in Kentucky last week.

166
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:49,000
It may come for us later in life, but it's coming.

167
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,000
Peter knew that death was coming for him.

168
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:58,000
And because of Jesus' words to him, he knew the kind of death that was coming to him.

169
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Jesus mentioned that to him in John 21.

170
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:12,000
One day Peter would be carried forth to a place that he would not wish to go, suggesting crucifixion.

171
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,000
Tradition tells us that Peter chose to be crucified upside down

172
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:21,000
because he didn't feel worthy to be crucified the way his Lord was.

173
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:27,000
We may not know the method by which our lives will be taken from this world,

174
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,000
but we do know the certainty of it.

175
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:36,000
Hebrews says it is appointed unto man once to die.

176
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,000
When we were young, I say again, we easily forget that.

177
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:47,000
As we vacationed in Kentucky just three weeks ago while we were there,

178
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:56,000
a young boy in Calvary Baptist Church, 11 years old, was playing baseball with his team.

179
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:01,000
The storm came up quickly, and the team was getting off the field,

180
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,000
and lightning struck this little boy.

181
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,000
And he was declared brain dead several days later.

182
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:15,000
I married his mother and father, their only son.

183
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,000
We don't know the limitation in our opportunities.

184
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,000
You say, well, this is morose.

185
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,000
Yes, it's sobering, isn't it?

186
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,000
But Peter says if we're going to be consistent about our growing,

187
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:32,000
we need to keep coming back to this truth that life isn't forever

188
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,000
and our opportunities in this world are limited.

189
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,000
So make the most of them.

190
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:43,000
Peter compares his death here to the laying aside of his earthly dwelling,

191
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,000
his tabernacle or tent,

192
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:53,000
which suggests an impermanence or an insecurity in his present situation.

193
00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:02,000
This laying aside of a tent is a common picture of death in the Bible.

194
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,000
He also calls it his departure, verse 15.

195
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,000
The word there is Exodus in the Greek.

196
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,000
That's a word that's used three times only in the New Testament.

197
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:18,000
It's used once of Israel's Exodus, as it's referred to in Hebrews 11, 22.

198
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,000
But Jesus uses it, or it's used rather of Jesus,

199
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:28,000
in Luke 9, 31 where it says that Moses and Elijah came to talk with Jesus

200
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:34,000
regarding his Exodus, his disease, his death in Jerusalem.

201
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,000
It's interesting, isn't it, that both of these pictures

202
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:41,000
are reminiscent of Old Testament history, the laying aside of a tent, a tabernacle.

203
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,000
An Exodus from this world.

204
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,000
Paul calls upon a similar figure in Philippians 1, 23

205
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,000
as he speaks of his death in these words.

206
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:57,000
Having a desire, literally he says it this way,

207
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:02,000
having a desire for thee to depart and to be with Christ.

208
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,000
See, that doesn't flow in English very well, no.

209
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,000
He's saying, I have a desire for that experience

210
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,000
that I would describe as departing and being with Christ.

211
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,000
And the way that he puts it together, he saw the departure from this world

212
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,000
and his arrival in the Lord's presence as one step.

213
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Just as you step through a door and in that instant you leave one room

214
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,000
and you arrive in another.

215
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:32,000
He says, that's what death is like. Departure.

216
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,000
And if we're going to keep growing in our Christian lives,

217
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,000
then we have to work this thing of forgetfulness.

218
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:47,000
Forgetfulness causes us just to kind of flow along with the current around us.

219
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:52,000
It's a very casual way to live. Peter says, be diligent.

220
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
He says, remember. Remember those things that you already know.

221
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,000
Call them to mind. They are precious, magnificent things.

222
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,000
Don't lose hold of them.

223
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:08,000
And remember the limitations that you're facing in the world.

224
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,000
You'll not always have your present opportunities,

225
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,000
so make the most of them while you can.

226
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,000
He goes on in the text, in a couple of weeks we'll look at some other reminders,

227
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:26,000
which if we pay heed to, we will keep on growing in our Christian life.

228
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:33,000
Bow with me please in prayer, would you?

229
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Are you growing, my friend, in your walk with God?

230
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Is your experience with God maturing so that your response to trials today

231
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:53,000
is better than it would have been a year ago or five years ago?

232
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
You see, that's what Christian growth is.

233
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:05,000
It's maturing in our experience with God so that our response to trials improves.

234
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,000
It becomes more like what God wants it to be.

235
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,000
As was suggested earlier, some of us are passing through trials right now.

236
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,000
The test is hot.

237
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:26,000
What God is doing, at least in part, is just proving to us and to Him

238
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,000
where we're at in our growth.

239
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,000
Let's determine to give diligence to this matter of growing in Christ.

240
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:37,000
Father, thank you for these reminders from your Word tonight.

241
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:44,000
Oh, we would desire that the Holy Spirit would enable us to be consistent

242
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,000
and diligent in this matter of growing.

243
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,000
And if there are some of us that have grown careless,

244
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:56,000
but we've been in the latent dormant period,

245
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,000
kick us out of that and get us moving.

246
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Accomplished, we pray your divine will in us.

247
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:15,000
In Jesus' name, amen.
