Dale Partridge - Genesis 12： The Seed, the Promise, and the True Israel

00:00:00.000 Amen. Well, today is my final sermon in the book of Genesis. As I mentioned, when we first started

00:00:11.480 this series about six or seven months ago, I said that we would only be going to about chapter 12.

00:00:17.720 Now, as many of you know, we are weeks away from our updated and new liturgy, and Lord willing,

00:00:23.480 moving toward, by God's grace, a permanent building, and my hope is that that would allow

00:00:30.940 some more families to join the congregation from the local area. Now, with all of that in view,

00:00:39.000 this kind of new season of Kingsway, the elders believed it was a good time to return to the

00:00:44.760 fundamentals of the faith, and I can't think of a better book to do that than the Gospel of John.

00:00:50.120 And so in about two weeks, we'll begin a year-long series that will go through John's Gospel.

00:00:58.240 50% of that will be taught by me, and the other 50% will be split between Pastor Jesse and Pastor Corbin.

00:01:06.060 And so we've just finished, if you have been here with us for this journey, we've just finished Genesis 9-11 in a multiple-part series.

00:01:16.320 and we saw a clear picture of God's design for both race and for nations and ethnicity and how

00:01:23.020 we have a theology of the world in terms of geography and we had a great discussion in those

00:01:29.040 sections of scripture. We saw that the curse of civilizational servitude that was pronounced upon

00:01:35.440 Canaan particularly and generally upon the posterity of Ham. We saw the globalism at the 0.98

00:01:41.440 Tower of Babel and we saw the nationalism of the Lord as he scattered the nations according to 0.60

00:01:47.860 their ancestry or their families, their languages, their lands, and their nations. And so today 0.81

00:01:54.920 in Genesis 12 we watch those realities begin to start to play out in the life of this one man

00:02:03.660 named Abram his name obviously we know as Abraham now Abram comes from the line of Shem

00:02:12.120 comes from the line of Shem and that's significant because we just read chapter 9 of Genesis and the

00:02:19.220 blessing pronounced upon Shem in Genesis chapter 9 was a result of him bearing the messianic line

00:02:25.040 and then we see that being fulfilled in this man named Abram. Now to give you a timeline just so

00:02:33.920 you have the context of the passage of scripture that we're in, Abram lives nine generations after

00:02:41.420 Shem. So there's a good amount of time that's occurred between Shem and Abram. It's actually

00:02:49.160 roughly around 300 years after the flood. Now, so Babel occurred approximately 150 years 0.93

00:02:57.860 after the flood, and then Abram is born another 150 years after the Tower of Babel. Now, 0.66

00:03:06.420 interestingly, scripture tells us that Shem was still alive when Abram lived. In fact,

00:03:13.760 Shem outlives Abraham by 35 years and so it's a pretty fascinating timeline when you see the

00:03:21.320 overlapping reality and it's entirely possible that Abraham knew Shem. It doesn't have anything 0.58

00:03:28.100 in scripture that tells us specifically that that was the case but we know that Shem of course knew

00:03:34.700 Noah and Noah was only born 14 years after the death of Seth, Seth the son of Adam and so you

00:03:43.380 can really connect this making massive leaps if you go okay so you have Abram who knew Shem

00:03:52.020 potentially. Shem who of course knew Noah. Noah was born 14 years after Seth died. Seth was the

00:04:00.500 son of Adam and so this is actually spanning over 1948 years and you only have a few generations

00:04:08.220 of touch points there. Now, I mention that because they remind us of how remarkably close

00:04:14.620 these biblical figures are to one another. It's very easy to think that there's massive gaps here,

00:04:19.840 but there's not. Genesis was not some sort of distant mythology that's passed across countless

00:04:26.280 anonymous generations that didn't touch one another. No, it's living history that's preserved

00:04:32.240 through overlapping eyewitness testimonies. And that's what makes this so incredible.

00:04:38.220 Now in chapter 12, it's essentially about the most prominent manifestation of what we call

00:04:45.280 the covenant of grace. Now in Genesis 3.16, if we go back, Adam and Eve had sinned and that they

00:04:53.460 would die as a result of their sin. But God had instituted a covenant of grace that was talked

00:04:59.680 about in verse 316, which we call the Proto-Evangelium, which is the first gospel that we see in the

00:05:06.840 Bible, in the Old Testament. And it was about this future serpent crusher that would come

00:05:11.580 through the seed of this fallen woman. Now that promised seed was preserved in Seth. We know that

00:05:18.140 it was carried through the flood in Noah. We know that it was declared to be going down through the

00:05:23.420 line of Shem, and now it's particularized in the man Abram. And so that's kind of where we are

00:05:29.960 contextually. Now it's important to see these connections because scripture is not some sort

00:05:34.580 of series of isolated events, but a single unfolding covenant story moving steadily toward

00:05:41.880 Christ. And that's why it's important for us to teach our children how all of these connect

00:05:46.660 together, and they culminate in Jesus Christ. So let's read verses 1 through 3. It says,

00:05:54.100 Now the Lord said to Abram, Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the 0.97

00:06:01.080 land which I will show you, and I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your 0.87

00:06:08.160 name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and in him who dishonors

00:06:15.360 you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. So as we all know,

00:06:24.740 God has just divided mankind into nations according to their families and their languages 0.96

00:06:31.240 and their lands and their nations, and he calls Abraham out from his nation in order to form a 0.89

00:06:40.700 new nation. So there's a little bit of connection that happens there. Essentially, Abram becomes the

00:06:48.700 seed of a new people, a holy people. He's actually taken and set apart a holy people, and God promises

00:06:58.240 to him, I will make of you a great nation. Now, it's in this context that God says, I will bless

00:07:07.140 those who bless you and in him who dishonors you i will curse now this is probably one of the most

00:07:15.160 frequently bastardized passages of scripture in the modern american theology and politics okay

00:07:21.860 this passage needs to be understood in the christian life so that we are not taken away

00:07:27.140 through the error of many people in america today now many of you likely remember senator ted cruz

00:07:34.300 mentioned this passage of scripture in his interview with tucker but he reworded it

00:07:39.220 to say quote i will bless those who bless israel and curse those who curse israel but that's not

00:07:48.120 what the text says and systematically that's not even what the text means and so

00:07:52.940 this is not some sort of blank check of divine favor to every nation that supports every action

00:08:02.320 of a political state established in 1948. That's not what this passage is speaking to. It's not

00:08:08.680 some sort of lucky rabbit's foot that we can rub to earn God's blessing. We just need to support

00:08:14.660 Israel and God will bless us, right? It's the same kind of context for someone that says,

00:08:19.060 oh, you know what? I'm just going to give and so that God will actually bless me. I'm not giving

00:08:23.720 to give. I'm just actually giving so God will bless me. We've almost treated this relationship

00:08:28.060 with the modern state of Israel. Like, hey, let's just support them and protect them and give our

00:08:32.540 money to them in every possible way. That's the way that we will be blessed. That's been the

00:08:37.080 interpretation. And most of all, it's not a justification for supporting modern Israel's 0.82

00:08:42.060 endless war campaigns in the Middle East. So scripture commands us to do a few things when

00:08:47.820 it comes to judging nations. One is to judge them according to what is right, according to

00:08:54.080 righteousness and true justice. It's not to grant one particular nation unconditional moral immunity

00:09:01.760 while it continues to reject the very Messiah the promise was actually about. And so this passage

00:09:08.400 of scripture, we have to remember that for most Christians throughout history, the modern state

00:09:14.880 of Israel did not exist. So just think about this with me for a second. For the vast majority of

00:09:19.860 Christian history, the modern state of Israel did not even exist. In fact, one useful test of an 1.00

00:09:26.640 interpretation of a passage of scripture is to ask, how did that text apply throughout the ages?

00:09:34.420 How did it apply in the 1500s? How did it apply to the 1200s? How did it apply to the early medieval

00:09:41.060 and the early church? That's a very important hermeneutical tactic to determine the universal

00:09:46.400 application or interpretation of a particular text. So if Genesis 12.3 refers specifically

00:09:54.800 to supporting the modern nation of Israel, what were the Christians supposed to do for nearly

00:10:01.200 2,000 years when that state didn't exist? It's a very important question. For 400 years prior to

00:10:08.020 1948, the Muslim Turks actually had control over the land in which Israel is now, and was the

00:10:16.360 church supposed to bless those Muslim Turks? Is it talking about the land? Is it talking about the

00:10:21.600 people? Is it talking about the God of those people? What is it talking about? More importantly,

00:10:27.580 how should we understand Christ's prophecy that we see actually unfold in Matthew chapter 24, 0.53

00:10:33.940 but also that we see in the Romans that would destroy Jerusalem, killing millions of Jews in

00:10:39.340 70 AD? Think about this with me for a second. If we're to take this verse as meaning what Ted Cruz

00:10:45.380 says that should, you know, if we're supposed to bless Israel unconditionally, then we need to

00:10:52.160 actually assign Christ's prophecy that Rome comes and destroys the Jews. Would that mean that Rome 0.74

00:10:58.740 would be cursed for carrying out that judgment? Would that mean that these people that come in 1.00

00:11:03.760 and curse Israel, the nation of Israel, with their military campaign and tearing down their temple 0.95

00:11:11.600 and destroying their land and killing millions of their people?

00:11:15.620 Does that mean that God is also, while he calls and prophesies that this would occur,

00:11:20.360 and judges Israel through Rome, does that mean that Rome would be cursed as a result of doing this?

00:11:26.420 No, we actually see the opposite. 0.96

00:11:29.020 Rome was actually greatly blessed after destroying Jewish civilization. 0.99

00:11:34.020 It actually became the seed and the center of early Christendom 1.00

00:11:38.760 and the vehicle in which Christianity would spread throughout the rest of the world.

00:11:44.120 So very strange when you compare those two realities. 0.58

00:11:48.160 So Christians before 1948 could not have understood Genesis 12-3

00:11:52.060 as a command to provide political or military or financial support

00:11:56.820 to the modern state of Christ-rejecting Israel.

00:12:01.580 Now this text cannot suddenly acquire some sort of entirely new political referent meaning

00:12:08.620 as a result of 1948. I do believe that the establishment of the nation state of Israel

00:12:14.120 might be historically significant, but what it doesn't do is rewrite the authorial intent of

00:12:19.740 Genesis. It doesn't do that. So if it doesn't mean that, what does it mean? If it doesn't mean that

00:12:28.320 we should be as a nation constantly giving all of our resources and all of our political loyalty

00:12:32.580 and all of our prayers to this nation of people who hate our Lord, then what does this mean?

00:12:38.620 Well, for nearly 2,000 years, the church understood this text as a promise made to Abraham that would be ultimately fulfilled in Christ and extended to all who belong to Christ by faith.

00:12:53.480 In Galatians 3.16, Paul writes,

00:12:55.300 Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring.

00:13:00.800 It does not say, and to his offsprings, referring to many, but referring to one, and to your offspring, who is Christ, end quote.

00:13:12.820 I love that Paul does the hermeneutics here.

00:13:15.220 He says, it's not plural, it's singular.

00:13:19.340 And Jesus Christ is that promised seed of Abraham.

00:13:24.560 The substance in which all the families of the earth would be blessed. 0.68

00:13:28.860 They're not going to be blessed through the offspring, having multiple people. 0.90

00:13:33.440 They're not being blessed through the nation of Israel.

00:13:35.680 We're being blessed through the seed, the one singular Jesus Christ.

00:13:44.800 But it's not just Jesus Christ, but all who belong to him.

00:13:48.560 And we know that because later, a few verses in Galatians, chapter 3, verses 29,

00:13:53.980 It says, if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to the promise, end quote.

00:14:02.920 So the true meaning, the historic Christian meaning is this. 0.64

00:14:08.560 Those who bless Christ and his people will be blessed, and those who curse Christ and his people will be cursed.

00:14:16.700 That's the real historic systematic meaning of this passage of scripture.

00:14:22.300 And this exposes the tragic irony of modern America, because we have inverted the promise.

00:14:31.460 Pay attention here. 0.99

00:14:32.700 We bless the Jews who curse Christ while cursing Christians who bless Christ. 1.00

00:14:38.480 I'm going to say that again. 1.00

00:14:39.920 We bless the Jews who curse Christ while cursing Christians who bless Christ. 1.00

00:14:45.420 That is the world that we live in. 0.98

00:14:47.440 In other words, if you want to know why America is collapsing, if you want to know why America is suffering, it's because we have given the love and the honor that belongs to Christ and his church to the synagogue of Satan.

00:15:01.200 Truly, we have done that at a national level.

00:15:04.960 America will not recover a blessed state until we stop transferring the loyalty we are supposed to have for Christ and his church. 0.85

00:15:15.060 And start rejecting the Christ rejecting Israel in the Middle East. 0.62

00:15:24.120 So should Christians bless Abraham? 0.98

00:15:28.760 Absolutely. 0.55

00:15:30.660 But scripture tells us what that means.

00:15:34.060 We bless Abraham by receiving Abraham's God, by believing Abraham's gospel, by worshiping Abraham's promised seed.

00:15:45.080 Jesus said, Abraham rejoiced that he would see my day.

00:15:49.200 He saw it and was glad.

00:15:52.560 To bless Abraham is to honor Abraham's hope.

00:15:58.380 To receive Abraham is to receive Christ and his household.

00:16:03.500 That's what this passage is talking about.

00:16:05.920 You know what's fascinating to me is that we have 2,000 years of post-Old Testament, New Testament history.

00:16:16.280 And we have an incredible record of theological fights.

00:16:22.000 There are differences on almost every issue between Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, Protestantism,

00:16:33.160 and then there are disagreements even within each of those three streams of the church.

00:16:39.300 But you know one thing that every one of those groups agrees with for thousands of years is this doctrine.

00:16:47.500 This doctrine, we have no disagreements until the very beginning of dispensationalism and

00:16:53.860 American Zionism that is introduced in the late 1800s and early 1900s and has taken a rampant

00:17:00.340 scale here in America over the last 50 to 70 years. So think about that. It's an amazing thing 0.88

00:17:07.140 that we can rest in the true historical understanding of this passage of scripture.

00:17:12.680 Let's move to verse 4 through 9.

00:17:16.940 So Abram went as the Lord told him, and Lot went with him.

00:17:24.240 Abram was 75 years old when he departed from Haran.

00:17:28.600 And Abram took Sarai his wife and Lot his brother's son,

00:17:34.200 and all their possessions that they had gathered, 0.81

00:17:36.920 and the people that they had acquired in Haran.

00:17:39.040 And they set out to go to the land of Canaan.

00:17:43.360 When they came to the land of Canaan, Abram passed through the land to a place at Shechem, to the Oak of Morah. 0.71

00:17:53.600 At that time, the Canaanites were in the land.

00:17:57.300 Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, To your offspring, I will give this land.

00:18:04.180 So he built there an altar who had appeared to him.

00:18:11.320 From there he moved to the hill country on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east.

00:18:19.400 And there he built an altar to the Lord and called upon the name of the Lord. 0.74

00:18:24.640 And Abram journeyed on, still going toward Naga.

00:18:27.780 okay this passage of scripture i was reading it and i was going okay what what's the practical

00:18:35.060 application of a text like this um i think we see four acts of abraham's faith and excuse me if i

00:18:43.900 keep calling him abraham to abram we know who he is right so we see four fact four acts of abraham's

00:18:51.840 faith. And each one demonstrates that genuine faith is not passive. It's not passive. It always

00:19:00.120 is handcuffed to obedience. In fact, it makes sense when Jesus says, if you love me, you'll

00:19:07.480 keep my commandments. Or if you love me, you'll obey me. And in fact, in Hebrews 11, 8, it tells

00:19:16.320 us that, quote, by faith Abraham obeyed when he was called out to go out, end quote. James 22 or

00:19:26.620 222 says, and it's speaking of Abraham, it says, quote, you see that faith was active along with

00:19:34.420 his works and faith was completed by his works. And so these six verses here in Genesis that

00:19:43.440 we're talking about, give us four examples of Abraham's faith. So first, Abraham went out

00:19:52.720 as the Lord had told him. Number one, he went out. Faith just isn't about hearing. It's about doing. 0.77

00:20:06.120 in fact we know that by doing we believe that you're hearing it's an evidence of your faith

00:20:13.940 that you're actually obeying and so faith hears and also faith moves if faith doesn't move it's

00:20:23.860 not real james talks about this that if you don't have the works i don't understand that if you have

00:20:32.560 the faith. You need both. It is by the works that it demonstrates the faith. Second,

00:20:42.840 Abram builds an altar to the Lord, and it teaches us that faith wasn't merely about moving. It's

00:20:51.960 also about worshiping. And so it's very easy to go, well, Abram believed, and he heard. Great.

00:20:59.540 give me more okay faith moves abram moves okay great give me more okay faith hears and moves

00:21:12.840 and worships okay this is starting to make some connection points that there is substance to this

00:21:21.240 faith and then fourth well actually i'm going to go third because he does it again third he builds

00:21:29.100 an altar again and so you see that you have faith that is heard and then it's moving uh and then

00:21:38.620 it's worshiping and then again he builds a second altar which i'm going to say is that it's

00:21:44.900 continuing it's consistent it it kind of eliminates this faith landing on bad soil circumstance

00:21:54.100 Because you see that Abraham's got really strong, consistent faith.

00:22:00.360 He's moving from one place to another and maintaining his worship.

00:22:06.300 And then fourth, he calls upon the name of the Lord, which is another way to say that faith prays.

00:22:16.140 So here you go.

00:22:17.340 You've got Abram, who's hearing the Lord.

00:22:22.320 That's a good sign.

00:22:24.100 And then he's moving according to the Lord's will.

00:22:28.620 And then he's worshiping according to the Lord's will.

00:22:32.840 And then he's continuing to worship.

00:22:35.860 And then he's praying.

00:22:38.180 And this gives us somewhat of a full-orbed picture of the degree of faithfulness that we see in Abram.

00:22:48.280 And we are to be similar.

00:22:50.460 we know that Abram is the father of our faith in fact Romans talks about that we need to have

00:22:56.880 the faith of Abraham it's that faith that saves us and the question is do you hear

00:23:05.020 do you go do you worship do you stay worshiping do you pray in fact if I don't see those things

00:23:17.660 in your life, I don't think that you have faith.

00:23:21.840 Those are the marks 0.97

00:23:23.240 of a faithful man or woman

00:23:27.440 that you hear, that you go,

00:23:32.060 that you worship, that you pray.

00:23:35.440 When I see people who say that they love the Lord,

00:23:40.320 but they don't hear the truth of the scriptures

00:23:42.680 when they read it, they don't go to church,

00:23:45.720 they don't worship in their regular life they don't represent christ and they don't pray

00:23:52.200 that is the evidence that they are deceived they don't have the faith of abram

00:23:59.640 but god showcases abraham's faith alongside his weakness so let's look at verses 10 through 20

00:24:15.720 Now there was a famine in the land, so Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.

00:24:26.220 When he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai,

00:24:29.420 I know that you are a woman beautiful in appearance, and when the Egyptians see you, they will say,

00:24:36.880 This is his wife. Then they will kill me, but they will let you live. 0.99

00:24:42.740 Say you are my sister, that it may go well with me because of you, and that my life may be spared for your sake. 0.94

00:24:52.120 When Abram entered Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.

00:25:00.540 And when the princes of Pharaoh saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh.

00:25:05.600 And the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house, and for her sake he dealt well with Abram.

00:25:12.900 And he had sheep, oxen, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels. 0.80

00:25:19.780 But the Lord afflicted Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.

00:25:29.280 So Pharaoh called Abram and said,

00:25:31.740 what is this that you have done to me why did you not tell me that she was your wife 0.53

00:25:37.600 why did you say she is my sister so that i would take her for my wife now then here is your wife 0.64

00:25:46.500 take her and go and pharaoh gave men orders concerning him and they sent him away with his

00:25:53.960 wife and all that he had. All right. So God calls Abram into the land of promise only to be met 0.58

00:26:07.780 with famine. Okay. Welcome to the promised land that I'm giving to you. And here is a severe

00:26:15.780 famine. And this reminds me that the presence and favor of God do not guarantee ideal circumstances.

00:26:23.960 um welcome to prescott it's difficult uh okay um there there are many applications here

00:26:32.640 and it's here where abram's faith is weak

00:26:37.940 now even though abram holds a divine promise that is bound by the way to his wife's womb

00:26:46.460 okay it's not just to him uh it's like hey this is a this is a promise to you and your wife

00:26:53.920 he gambles his wife's purity in order to protect his own life and possessions

00:27:00.980 think about how wicked this is it's faithlessness it's cowardice it's adultery it's lying it's

00:27:12.380 deception. It's so wicked. This is the father of the faith. Okay? So Noah gets drunk. Abraham

00:27:25.280 pawns off his wife to pagans. Moses murders. David murders and commits adultery. 0.89

00:27:34.600 and so God does not hide the faults of his people

00:27:40.880 and that should warn us that he will not hide

00:27:46.620 your fault either. Scripture

00:27:50.720 says be sure that your sin will find you out

00:27:54.080 what is covered will eventually be uncovered

00:27:58.660 often for your good

00:28:01.400 And so if you are walking in hidden sin, Scripture says you should take that to the light.

00:28:12.440 But God loves us so much that sometimes he'll take it in the light for you.

00:28:18.780 Now, that's humiliating.

00:28:20.660 In fact, I'd rather bring it into light myself than have the Lord expose my weaknesses to the watching public.

00:28:32.760 But that is what the Lord does.

00:28:37.160 So Abram lies, he deceives, he treats the mother of the promised seed as expendable.

00:28:44.260 Yet even in Abram's failure, God remains faithful.

00:28:50.660 I think we could just pass over that passage and go,

00:28:57.260 like, Abram's not that bad. It wasn't that big of a deal. Like, no. In fact, you probably,

00:29:02.760 anybody in this room has never done anything as wicked as this. It's that wicked. And

00:29:09.700 even in that degree of failure,

00:29:14.300 pawning off the mother of the, you know, the foremother of the Messiah

00:29:25.000 to sleep with pagans. I don't know. It's very wicked. And even in that failure,

00:29:34.220 we see God is faithful to Abram. The Lord intervenes, and he afflicts Pharaoh's house 0.98

00:29:43.680 and he sovereignly protects both Sarai and, of course, through that, the covenant line 0.89

00:29:50.620 and continues to bless Abraham as a result.

00:29:57.760 And this demonstrates the covenant rests not on human strength or weakness,

00:30:03.260 but on divine faithfulness.

00:30:06.440 in other words abram's weakness cannot overturn god's promise and that should be very encouraging

00:30:16.780 to you okay when you fail which you do often because i do and when you are weak which you

00:30:24.580 are often because i am our redemption our covenant security does not rest in our strength to be

00:30:34.660 faithful, but in the faithfulness and the strength of Christ. It is a really good thing to remember.

00:30:43.400 Many of us have sinned to such a degree that we have thought, God's done with me.

00:30:52.800 The reality is, it doesn't rest on you. If you are God's children, God will continue to secure

00:31:04.320 you even in the midst of your failures and so when you fail Christ won't and when you're weak

00:31:12.440 Christ isn't and so the history of Abraham is not ultimately the history of a great man's strength

00:31:19.840 but the history of the strength of God's faithfulness that's what we see in this

00:31:26.440 passage and so my prayer for you is to be found among those who bless Abraham's seed

00:31:33.580 Christ Jesus

00:31:35.320 and that you are living heirs 0.80

00:31:39.640 of Abraham's faith

00:31:41.440 and that you walk

00:31:43.880 and even in the midst of those failures

00:31:46.480 you rest in the fact

00:31:48.240 that you are not saved

00:31:49.860 by the obedience of yourself

00:31:52.280 or the perfect faithfulness

00:31:54.920 of your own life

00:31:56.160 you are saved

00:31:57.500 by the perfect obedience of Christ

00:32:00.420 Amen?

00:32:02.100 Let's pray

00:32:03.540 Father, we thank you, Lord, for the example of Abraham.

00:32:08.000 Lord, that you have given us fathers in the faith that we might look up to and look to their example.

00:32:15.320 Lord, to know that they are weak, and yet God still saves.

00:32:22.120 Lord, we ask that you would help us to remain and rest in that truth.

00:32:26.560 In Jesus' name, amen.

00:32:33.100 Thank you.
