Nephilim Death Squad - Sermon on the Mount Episode 1

00:00:00.000 Let's go!

00:00:01.380 Top Lobster Productions

00:00:30.000 Okay, we're going to do the Sermon on the Mount

00:00:32.860 Who knows how many episodes it's going to be

00:00:34.700 It will probably be less than 100

00:00:36.680 But we don't know exactly how many

00:00:39.060 And so if you missed this right in the beginning

00:00:41.080 Of the Sermon on the Mount

00:00:41.980 It's Matthew 5, 6, and 7

00:00:43.740 Then you miss a lot

00:00:44.700 This is the beginning in verses 1 and 2

00:00:46.580 This is speaking of Jesus

00:00:49.920 In seeing the multitudes

00:00:51.380 He went up into a mountain

00:00:52.680 And when He was set

00:00:54.060 His disciples came unto Him

00:00:55.520 And He opened His mouth and taught them

00:00:57.440 Then He gets into the Beatitudes

00:01:00.940 He gets into the culture of the Kingdom of God

00:01:02.820 Which is ultimately what this is all about

00:01:04.200 Is the culture of our Kingdom

00:01:05.400 Can we go back to 4.23 real quick?

00:01:11.240 I know this might seem like boring

00:01:13.300 Or like, oh, that verse 1 and 2

00:01:15.460 Didn't have anything to do with anything

00:01:16.860 But it has a lot to do with everything

00:01:18.460 We're just going to unpack it

00:01:19.580 So back in 4.23 it says

00:01:22.600 And Jesus went about all Galilee

00:01:24.440 Teaching in their synagogues

00:01:26.800 And preaching the gospel of the Kingdom

00:01:28.320 And healing all manner of sickness

00:01:30.620 And all manner of disease among the people

00:01:32.740 And His fame went throughout all Syria

00:01:35.660 And they brought unto Him

00:01:36.680 All sick people that were taken

00:01:38.080 With diverse diseases and torments

00:01:39.980 And those which were possessed with devils

00:01:42.020 And those which were lunatic

00:01:43.460 And those that had the palsy

00:01:45.200 And He healed them

00:01:46.060 And there followed Him

00:01:47.120 Great multitudes of people

00:01:48.360 From Galilee and from Decapolis

00:01:49.960 And from Jerusalem

00:01:50.700 And from Judea

00:01:51.560 And from beyond Jordan

00:01:52.580 So that's the context

00:01:54.140 He's starting to make waves

00:01:55.880 If you will

00:01:56.420 They don't have Twitter

00:01:57.520 They don't have Facebook

00:01:58.500 They don't have any of the things

00:02:00.080 There's just this dude

00:02:01.580 Who's just going through the earth

00:02:03.060 Casting out demons

00:02:04.640 Healing sick people

00:02:06.100 Teaching things that they've never heard before

00:02:08.420 And it's gathering steam

00:02:10.000 It's gathering steam

00:02:10.860 People are starting to flock to Him

00:02:12.320 So He's got this giant multitude

00:02:14.120 And seeing the multitudes

00:02:16.380 We're back to 5.1

00:02:17.400 And seeing the multitudes

00:02:20.940 Okay

00:02:22.500 Let's keep that here

00:02:23.320 The multitudes

00:02:24.180 He went up into a mountain

00:02:27.580 And when He was set

00:02:28.940 His disciples came unto Him

00:02:30.820 So He sees the multitudes

00:02:32.480 That's not who this message is delivered to

00:02:34.940 This is delivered strictly to His disciples

00:02:37.560 Right?

00:02:38.680 So this matters for a couple of reasons

00:02:41.120 Because I think some people aren't totally sure

00:02:43.120 How the Sermon on the Mount goes down

00:02:44.420 Because it says the multitudes

00:02:45.940 As seeing the multitudes

00:02:47.280 He went up into a mountain

00:02:48.280 And when He was set

00:02:49.080 His disciples came unto Him

00:02:50.660 And He opened His mouth and taught them

00:02:52.700 Now this is the thing

00:02:54.260 That's real crazy to me today

00:02:55.740 Is I kind of unpack some of these topics

00:02:58.240 That are happening

00:02:58.940 That I wasn't really aware of

00:03:00.100 Before I started to do the podcast game

00:03:02.800 And I apologize for that

00:03:04.720 No, it's okay

00:03:06.320 What do you mean exposing me

00:03:07.900 To all the dumb stuff of the world?

00:03:09.320 Okay, so one of the dumb things

00:03:10.800 Is like Christian nationalism

00:03:12.640 They call it, right?

00:03:14.020 And so people are like

00:03:15.680 Yeah, the church will be in charge of the state

00:03:17.680 And I'm like, no

00:03:18.600 That's really stupid

00:03:20.400 If the state decides to

00:03:22.360 Honor the law of Moses

00:03:24.220 A law given to a nation

00:03:26.760 That's cool

00:03:27.540 That's cool if a state

00:03:28.700 A government decides to do that

00:03:30.980 It's probably very wise of them

00:03:33.000 But for the church

00:03:34.200 Or the kingdom of God

00:03:35.080 To get involved in that

00:03:36.200 It's not how Jesus operates

00:03:38.460 He sees the multitudes

00:03:39.980 He calls to Him His disciples

00:03:41.880 Do you see what I'm saying?

00:03:43.140 How it's subtle?

00:03:44.020 It's subtle

00:03:44.520 It's like

00:03:45.300 That's not the culture of our kingdom

00:03:47.880 To like dictate this

00:03:49.560 To the masses of people

00:03:50.780 That's not how He does it

00:03:52.000 Right?

00:03:52.520 And that's good, bad, or whatever

00:03:54.400 This is how He chooses to do it

00:03:56.720 And so if you miss this context

00:03:58.260 That He sees the multitudes

00:03:59.740 And imagine everything

00:04:00.500 That goes on with multitudes

00:04:01.540 You're like healing people

00:04:02.780 You're casting out demons

00:04:04.460 There's all this stuff

00:04:05.320 Going on in the multitudes

00:04:06.380 And I always think about

00:04:07.500 Like even in coffee shops

00:04:08.620 Like when I worked in a coffee shop

00:04:09.780 When I was 17

00:04:10.320 There's like all these different people

00:04:12.020 And there was like

00:04:12.860 Coffee was like this great equalizer

00:04:15.600 Between people, right?

00:04:17.040 Like if you notice in a coffee shop

00:04:18.480 If there's like a big shot society

00:04:19.920 That's like a wealthy doctor

00:04:21.260 Lawyer

00:04:21.940 Just, you know, some big shot

00:04:23.340 They're usually totally equalized

00:04:25.780 With like a janitor

00:04:26.600 Or a teenage kid

00:04:27.880 Everybody's kind of on the same level

00:04:29.740 So that's like a thing

00:04:31.060 I observed like very early in my life

00:04:32.800 About coffee shops

00:04:33.620 It was really cool

00:04:34.340 Like there's this dude, Brian

00:04:35.960 Just this straight tweaker

00:04:37.020 That would come in all the time

00:04:38.460 He was like

00:04:39.040 He was a tree trimmer

00:04:41.760 Like he was out there

00:04:42.500 With the chainsaw

00:04:43.280 And he was like this crazy dude

00:04:45.040 And I knew him from NA meetings too

00:04:46.520 But he'd come in Starbucks

00:04:47.960 When I worked there

00:04:48.540 He always got like a large black coffee

00:04:49.980 And he always had like water

00:04:51.700 With lemon in it for electrolytes

00:04:53.120 He's like, yo, you need electrolytes

00:04:54.540 I was like

00:04:55.040 But he was always on meth

00:04:56.480 Yeah, so he was like

00:04:58.060 Always chewing the invisible gum

00:04:59.620 Like jaw jacking

00:05:00.820 And he had like

00:05:01.320 Kermit the frog eyeballs

00:05:02.380 Like everything he was talking about

00:05:03.680 And I would just be like

00:05:04.860 Bro, you need more than electrolytes

00:05:06.380 Like you need something else

00:05:07.660 But like he could vibe

00:05:09.420 With doctors and lawyers

00:05:10.940 And like

00:05:11.660 Everybody was like

00:05:12.760 On the same level

00:05:13.620 In a copy shop

00:05:14.680 Other than Officer Jacobs

00:05:15.880 He hated Wayne Jacobs

00:05:17.020 Was his name

00:05:17.600 Yeah, because Wayne Jacobs

00:05:21.240 Was like

00:05:21.720 I think they went to high school together

00:05:23.140 And uh

00:05:24.080 Shout out, well

00:05:25.600 Uh

00:05:27.020 They like didn't like each other

00:05:28.560 From high school

00:05:29.240 And then Wayne Jacobs

00:05:30.240 Became a cop

00:05:31.100 And then this dude

00:05:31.840 Brian became a tweaker

00:05:32.880 But other than that

00:05:33.880 You see what I'm saying

00:05:34.480 Like everybody's on the same level

00:05:35.900 And I think

00:05:36.400 In this crowd with Jesus

00:05:37.780 It's the same thing

00:05:38.740 And I think Jesus sees everybody

00:05:41.000 I don't know

00:05:43.840 But I always have this feeling

00:05:45.180 He looks at humans

00:05:46.200 And like

00:05:46.700 At their fullest potential

00:05:48.220 I don't

00:05:48.700 I don't know

00:05:49.300 If that makes sense

00:05:50.140 But like

00:05:50.580 Sometimes you look at people

00:05:52.360 And they're in this situation

00:05:53.620 And that situation

00:05:54.440 You just look on them

00:05:55.320 And you love them

00:05:55.880 And you could see them

00:05:56.540 At like this higher potential

00:05:57.740 And I think he always did that

00:05:59.780 So he's got these masses of people

00:06:01.460 They're on like

00:06:02.940 He's viewing them

00:06:05.240 In their highest potential

00:06:06.100 But they're there for

00:06:07.000 Who knows how many reasons

00:06:08.460 Right?

00:06:08.880 It's a mixed multitude

00:06:10.200 And you just can't give

00:06:11.920 This to these guys

00:06:13.440 You can't just give it to them

00:06:14.560 Like that

00:06:14.900 Like you

00:06:15.220 You have to get some ones

00:06:16.800 Who are willing to receive it

00:06:18.040 And get those to you

00:06:19.040 Teach it to them

00:06:19.900 And let them live it

00:06:21.180 In front of the masses

00:06:22.040 This is also important

00:06:23.580 It's a point that like

00:06:25.000 Missel will bring up a lot

00:06:26.340 Or Ed Mabry

00:06:27.480 Who is he talking to?

00:06:29.420 Like the context

00:06:30.340 In which he's talking to

00:06:31.520 Because you won't understand

00:06:32.780 What he's saying

00:06:33.360 Unless you understand

00:06:34.200 Who the message

00:06:35.440 Is being delivered to

00:06:36.260 So it's his closest

00:06:37.460 His closest friends

00:06:39.720 At the time

00:06:40.340 And people that

00:06:41.300 Would understand

00:06:42.100 These kind of speaking

00:06:42.960 So like

00:06:43.440 The Hebrew people of this day

00:06:44.980 And specifically

00:06:46.200 Those who

00:06:47.360 Can receive it man

00:06:49.660 Those who

00:06:51.020 Can

00:06:52.220 Submit to the authority

00:06:54.900 Of the kingdom of God

00:06:55.920 Don't give this to everybody

00:06:57.620 They're not going to be able

00:06:58.480 Like you start to do

00:06:59.560 Gosh what's it called again

00:07:01.920 Where the church is in charge

00:07:03.160 Of the whole country

00:07:03.840 Christian nationals

00:07:04.900 Yeah everybody can't handle that

00:07:06.280 Everybody can't handle that

00:07:07.220 You can't just give that

00:07:08.100 To the masses

00:07:08.700 You call those to you

00:07:10.440 Who can receive it

00:07:11.800 And then they live it out

00:07:13.480 As an example

00:07:14.340 In front of everybody else

00:07:15.460 That's the kingdom of God

00:07:16.820 So like

00:07:17.480 This whole Christian nationalism

00:07:19.140 Is like

00:07:19.560 I feel like people get in this place

00:07:20.760 Where they're like

00:07:21.240 They haven't read the Bible

00:07:22.620 They don't know

00:07:23.480 But they're a Christian

00:07:24.320 They go to church

00:07:25.380 Whatever

00:07:25.700 And then a topic like this

00:07:27.820 Comes up

00:07:28.320 That they haven't studied out

00:07:29.500 Through the scripture

00:07:30.180 They don't have like

00:07:30.960 This bigger picture view

00:07:32.340 Of things

00:07:32.900 And so whoever has

00:07:34.040 The best argument

00:07:34.920 Within that sphere

00:07:35.820 Of Christian nationalism

00:07:36.720 They just go with that guy

00:07:37.860 It's like

00:07:38.540 No no no

00:07:38.880 You have to have

00:07:39.340 Some of these things

00:07:40.060 Already like

00:07:40.700 Ready in your mind

00:07:41.780 Because you already

00:07:42.500 Read it in the scripture

00:07:43.360 You already understand it

00:07:44.500 In the scripture

00:07:44.880 Before it presents itself

00:07:46.420 Not scrambling at the last minute

00:07:48.060 To try to

00:07:48.800 Understand a thing

00:07:49.940 Because it's like

00:07:50.500 Hot in the news

00:07:51.340 But to actually like

00:07:52.340 Have these things

00:07:53.320 Sort of understood

00:07:54.080 In your mind

00:07:54.660 Before this starts

00:07:55.520 And this is the culture

00:07:57.200 Of our kingdom

00:07:57.760 So it's like

00:07:58.460 It's sort of like

00:07:59.400 That mindset

00:08:00.080 Is like applying

00:08:00.800 Christian principles

00:08:01.740 To worldly thinking

00:08:02.840 Which happens a lot

00:08:03.700 Which happens a lot

00:08:04.580 But the whole context

00:08:05.960 Is off whack

00:08:06.720 Like we don't demand

00:08:08.200 That the masses

00:08:08.980 Live according to the culture

00:08:10.980 Of the kingdom of God

00:08:11.800 It's not going to happen

00:08:12.720 Right

00:08:14.480 So the multitudes

00:08:17.360 Can never accept it

00:08:18.300 It's the same thing today

00:08:19.200 It's got to be preached

00:08:20.000 To those who can handle it

00:08:21.160 And live it

00:08:21.700 And therefore make it attractive

00:08:23.060 Which is the context

00:08:24.980 Of verses 13 through 16

00:08:28.080 Can we look at

00:08:32.060 Yeah

00:08:34.260 Watch this

00:08:35.680 We're jumping ahead

00:08:36.740 A little bit

00:08:37.200 We're not even going to

00:08:37.820 We're not even going to

00:08:38.580 Unpack this passage

00:08:39.560 This week

00:08:40.020 But we're just going to

00:08:41.020 Try to make this point

00:08:42.340 So everybody's on the

00:08:43.080 Same page up front

00:08:44.100 That

00:08:45.720 That the context is

00:08:48.800 Jesus delivers this

00:08:50.020 To his disciples

00:08:50.820 To those who can receive it

00:08:52.260 And then it's their job

00:08:53.420 To deliver it to the masses

00:08:54.660 Right

00:08:55.060 He says this

00:08:55.960 He says

00:08:56.280 You are the salt of the earth

00:08:57.500 But if the salt

00:08:58.520 Has lost its savor

00:08:59.540 Wherewith shall it be salted

00:09:00.880 It is thenceforth

00:09:01.700 Good for nothing

00:09:02.720 But to be cast out

00:09:04.180 And to be trodden

00:09:05.160 Underfoot of men

00:09:06.340 You are the light of the world

00:09:08.880 A city that is set on a hill

00:09:10.560 Cannot be hid

00:09:11.600 Neither do men

00:09:13.780 Light a candle

00:09:14.440 And put it under a bushel

00:09:15.560 But on a candlestick

00:09:16.960 And it gives light

00:09:17.780 Unto all that are in the house

00:09:19.120 Let your light

00:09:20.300 So shine before men

00:09:21.860 That they may see

00:09:22.980 Your good works

00:09:23.600 And glorify your father

00:09:24.540 Which is in heaven

00:09:25.260 So like I said

00:09:26.180 We're not going to

00:09:26.700 Unpack that

00:09:27.360 But we're just

00:09:28.000 Referencing it real quick

00:09:29.820 To say that's how

00:09:30.940 God operates

00:09:31.720 He gives this

00:09:32.940 To a remnant

00:09:34.140 If you will

00:09:34.780 And then they become

00:09:35.880 That light that shines

00:09:36.860 Before men

00:09:37.520 That's how he does it

00:09:38.580 He doesn't demand

00:09:39.380 That the masses

00:09:39.940 Accept it

00:09:41.220 And that's where

00:09:41.940 You get into

00:09:42.400 Like the

00:09:42.920 Matthew 10

00:09:43.980 14

00:09:44.420 And Matthew 7

00:09:45.600 6

00:09:46.100 If we have

00:09:46.540 These passages

00:09:47.300 Matthew 7

00:09:52.520 6 pulled up here

00:09:53.340 Okay

00:09:54.180 So Matthew 7

00:09:55.060 6 says

00:09:55.540 Give not that

00:09:56.160 Which is holy

00:09:56.660 Under the dogs

00:09:57.380 Neither cast you

00:09:58.120 Your pearls

00:09:58.540 Before swine

00:09:59.300 Unless they trample

00:10:00.040 Them under their feet

00:10:00.900 And turn again

00:10:01.580 And rend you

00:10:02.140 Right

00:10:02.840 He says

00:10:03.540 Don't do that

00:10:04.280 Don't do that

00:10:04.940 The masses

00:10:05.460 Are not going

00:10:05.940 To be able

00:10:06.180 To accept this

00:10:06.920 Like don't

00:10:07.500 Like let's not

00:10:08.000 Do that

00:10:08.360 Let's not go there

00:10:09.100 And then

00:10:10.800 This is where

00:10:12.340 This is 10

00:10:13.640 14

00:10:13.960 Where he's like

00:10:14.540 Sending the disciples

00:10:15.300 Out

00:10:15.580 He says

00:10:15.840 Hey man

00:10:16.180 Whoever doesn't

00:10:17.120 Receive you

00:10:17.720 Or hear your words

00:10:18.700 When you depart

00:10:19.720 Out of that coast

00:10:20.420 Or city

00:10:20.780 Shake off the dust

00:10:21.960 Off your feet

00:10:22.500 Don't stick around

00:10:23.600 To argue

00:10:24.040 And win the argument

00:10:24.740 And demand that

00:10:25.540 Everybody accept

00:10:26.440 This way of life

00:10:27.280 Just get out of there

00:10:28.300 Don't sweat it

00:10:29.300 And this is just

00:10:32.280 One of those things

00:10:32.940 Where like

00:10:33.280 He's got to give it

00:10:34.040 To real ones

00:10:34.700 Right

00:10:34.860 Like this is where

00:10:35.280 That saying comes from

00:10:36.200 Like it's only as real

00:10:37.080 Through you

00:10:37.500 As real as it is to you

00:10:38.740 Like he's got to give it

00:10:39.800 To real ones

00:10:40.440 Who can go out there

00:10:41.160 And live it

00:10:41.780 And have people see it

00:10:43.420 And it becomes

00:10:44.000 Attractive to people

00:10:45.020 They're saying like

00:10:45.620 Something's different

00:10:46.640 This dude's otherworldly

00:10:48.160 Like he's not like

00:10:49.080 And I think that's

00:10:49.920 What you find out

00:10:50.580 As you start to go

00:10:51.240 Through these beatitudes

00:10:52.220 It's like

00:10:52.700 These are the characteristics

00:10:53.800 Of somebody who's

00:10:55.080 Otherworldly

00:10:55.940 Like they're just not

00:10:57.740 Like the ways

00:10:58.340 Of the earth

00:10:59.300 All right

00:11:01.320 So

00:11:01.660 So first and foremost

00:11:04.360 Like with all of these

00:11:05.220 Beatitudes we're going

00:11:06.060 To get into

00:11:06.740 Is the culture

00:11:08.680 Of this kingdom

00:11:09.460 Is

00:11:10.620 Is internal

00:11:11.700 It's character

00:11:12.520 You could say that

00:11:13.220 All these things

00:11:13.980 Are like

00:11:14.460 Characteristics

00:11:15.740 That like

00:11:16.960 Make up

00:11:17.580 A bigger character

00:11:19.220 If you will

00:11:20.000 If that makes sense

00:11:20.860 But they're internal

00:11:25.080 They're not like

00:11:25.980 They're not like

00:11:27.200 These things that

00:11:28.040 I don't know

00:11:29.240 So a lot of this

00:11:30.140 Is about kingdom

00:11:30.800 As well

00:11:31.220 Right

00:11:31.420 Like the whole

00:11:32.120 Context for this

00:11:32.880 Is kingdom

00:11:33.360 And so these dudes

00:11:34.740 That are listening

00:11:35.340 To him

00:11:36.000 And they understand

00:11:37.860 That he's coming

00:11:38.680 For a kingdom

00:11:39.300 And they keep

00:11:39.840 Making these references

00:11:40.780 To like

00:11:41.280 Will you restore

00:11:41.980 The kingdom to Israel

00:11:42.980 Which they make

00:11:44.000 All the way

00:11:44.600 Even to the end

00:11:45.540 Like even in Acts

00:11:46.540 Like even in Acts 1-9

00:11:47.120 They're still talking

00:11:48.740 About this

00:11:49.100 After the entire

00:11:49.960 Earthly ministry

00:11:50.820 Of Jesus

00:11:51.260 They're still making

00:11:52.060 These references

00:11:52.640 To like

00:11:53.180 Hey are you going

00:11:54.220 To restore

00:11:54.660 The kingdom to Israel

00:11:55.640 So imagine what

00:11:56.520 They're thinking here

00:11:57.260 At like the very beginning

00:11:58.300 At the very beginning

00:11:59.360 They're like

00:11:59.840 Yo what is this all about

00:12:01.080 Like is this still about

00:12:02.480 Christianity

00:12:04.580 Is this about Christ

00:12:05.780 Or is this about the kingdom

00:12:06.840 Like what's going on here

00:12:08.300 And it does make you wonder

00:12:12.380 Like how much they know

00:12:13.400 Even if they know

00:12:14.280 This is about a kingdom

00:12:15.180 Like do they understand

00:12:16.800 That he's the king

00:12:19.880 Like I wonder that too

00:12:21.160 Or are they just like

00:12:22.460 Okay he's talking

00:12:23.500 About a kingdom

00:12:24.000 Like we get it

00:12:25.080 But this dude's

00:12:25.880 Just like a solid teacher

00:12:27.000 Well they couldn't

00:12:27.640 I mean he hadn't

00:12:28.380 Revealed himself

00:12:29.000 As that yet right

00:12:29.820 Right

00:12:30.320 So it's very abstract

00:12:31.700 To these people

00:12:32.400 You just wonder though

00:12:33.280 Like John

00:12:34.080 You super wonder

00:12:35.200 If like John got it

00:12:36.500 Like maybe John

00:12:37.500 Was like dude

00:12:38.840 Is this the king

00:12:39.560 Like he's elaborating

00:12:40.940 On these things

00:12:41.540 Pertaining to the kingdom

00:12:42.420 Of God

00:12:42.800 Like is he the one

00:12:43.920 Like is he the king

00:12:45.000 So the earlier chapters

00:12:47.660 Have both John and Jesus

00:12:49.040 Saying repent

00:12:49.660 For the kingdom of heaven

00:12:50.580 Is at hand

00:12:51.180 So that's what I'm saying

00:12:52.000 Like people know

00:12:52.820 This is about a kingdom

00:12:53.860 So I don't know

00:12:57.180 But imagine what they have

00:12:58.280 In mind

00:12:58.620 Just based on Acts

00:12:59.800 Like is it one

00:13:01.460 One through nine

00:13:02.800 We need

00:13:03.760 We need

00:13:04.200 Chapter one

00:13:06.260 Verse one through nine

00:13:07.460 So this is just

00:13:09.120 The intro from Luke

00:13:10.060 He's saying

00:13:10.480 The former treaties

00:13:11.200 Have I made

00:13:11.640 O Theopolis

00:13:12.220 Of all that Jesus

00:13:13.060 Began both to do

00:13:14.380 And teach

00:13:14.880 So this is Luke

00:13:15.700 He's just writing

00:13:16.420 To this dude Theopolis

00:13:17.420 And he's explaining

00:13:19.100 To him about

00:13:19.580 The life of Jesus

00:13:20.520 Until the day

00:13:21.840 In which he was

00:13:22.400 Taken up

00:13:22.940 After that he

00:13:23.520 Through the Holy Ghost

00:13:24.260 Had given commandments

00:13:25.160 Under the apostles

00:13:26.260 Whom he had chosen

00:13:27.260 Not to the masses

00:13:29.240 To the apostles

00:13:30.180 To whom also

00:13:30.960 He showed himself alive

00:13:32.320 After his passion

00:13:33.200 By many infallible proofs

00:13:35.100 Being seen of them

00:13:36.140 This is heavy bro

00:13:37.060 Being seen of them

00:13:38.180 40 days

00:13:39.100 Right

00:13:39.760 So this is after the cross

00:13:41.300 After the resurrection

00:13:42.680 They've been seeing him

00:13:44.760 For 40 days

00:13:46.080 And he's been speaking

00:13:47.880 Of the things

00:13:48.540 Pertaining to the kingdom

00:13:49.700 Of God

00:13:50.220 That's rad

00:13:52.000 Because a lot of people

00:13:52.840 You know there's this weird

00:13:53.740 Phrase today

00:13:54.300 Like invite Jesus

00:13:55.080 Into your heart

00:13:55.640 Which I'm not

00:13:56.280 I'm not like against

00:13:57.280 This phrase

00:13:57.840 Invite Jesus

00:13:58.420 Into your heart

00:13:58.940 But it's kind of like

00:13:59.640 It kind of shafts

00:14:00.820 The Holy Spirit

00:14:01.500 And it kind of

00:14:02.400 Sets aside

00:14:03.320 This concept

00:14:04.180 That Jesus

00:14:04.700 Is actually seated

00:14:05.560 At the right hand

00:14:06.180 Of the Father

00:14:06.680 Interceding for us

00:14:07.800 Which I think

00:14:08.960 It does matter

00:14:09.500 To just kind of

00:14:10.140 Understand the context

00:14:11.200 Today

00:14:11.740 Right

00:14:12.200 So he's 40 days

00:14:14.120 Hanging out

00:14:15.640 After the resurrection

00:14:16.620 Talking to everybody

00:14:17.720 About things pertaining

00:14:18.560 To the kingdom

00:14:19.060 And being assembled

00:14:20.280 Together with them

00:14:21.140 Commanded them

00:14:21.800 That they should not

00:14:22.480 Depart from Jerusalem

00:14:23.500 But wait for the promise

00:14:24.540 Of the Father

00:14:25.140 Which saith he

00:14:26.340 You have heard of me

00:14:27.240 For John truly baptized

00:14:30.060 With water

00:14:30.640 But you shall be baptized

00:14:31.740 With the Holy Ghost

00:14:32.620 Not many days hence

00:14:33.820 When they therefore

00:14:36.780 Were come together

00:14:37.680 Imagine this dude

00:14:38.820 He's saying bro

00:14:39.400 You guys are about

00:14:40.060 To get the Holy Spirit

00:14:40.960 On a level

00:14:41.640 Like nobody's ever known

00:14:42.860 They're like okay cool

00:14:43.720 Therefore

00:14:44.500 When they came together

00:14:45.700 They asked him

00:14:46.220 Saying Lord

00:14:46.740 Will you at this time

00:14:47.560 Restore again

00:14:48.160 The kingdom to Israel

00:14:48.980 So you see what I'm saying

00:14:50.120 This is all the way

00:14:51.220 Even after

00:14:52.140 His entire ministry

00:14:54.680 On the earth

00:14:55.080 He's already

00:14:55.500 The cross

00:14:56.000 The resurrection

00:14:56.520 Has already happened

00:14:57.000 And they're still thinking

00:14:58.020 Like okay

00:14:58.640 This is the kingdom

00:14:59.660 Like Israel's gonna

00:15:01.360 Become the main nation

00:15:02.320 On the planet

00:15:02.900 We're gonna crush Rome

00:15:04.000 We're gonna crush

00:15:04.940 Whoever else

00:15:05.680 Like they're still

00:15:06.500 In that mindset

00:15:07.240 Even in Acts

00:15:08.460 So like where were they

00:15:10.480 Like where were they

00:15:12.080 At this time

00:15:12.940 This is very early

00:15:13.900 In his ministry

00:15:14.460 This describes that idea

00:15:15.700 Of the Christian nationalism

00:15:16.640 Today

00:15:17.280 People are still thinking

00:15:18.880 That today

00:15:19.860 Right

00:15:20.560 So it's like

00:15:21.500 I get it

00:15:23.000 I understand it

00:15:23.840 Because it's a very

00:15:24.500 Physical

00:15:25.680 Physical realm

00:15:27.020 Way of thinking

00:15:27.780 Rather than

00:15:28.980 You're not

00:15:29.420 You're not seeing

00:15:30.060 In the spirit

00:15:30.620 Yeah it's like

00:15:31.100 Applying these

00:15:31.820 Eternal things

00:15:32.800 To this natural

00:15:33.800 Way of thinking

00:15:34.500 And it's like

00:15:34.980 That's not how

00:15:35.760 He does it dude

00:15:36.620 He says

00:15:37.200 You're the salt

00:15:38.120 You're the light

00:15:39.240 Not

00:15:40.040 This isn't for everybody

00:15:40.940 Alright so he says

00:15:42.100 To them

00:15:42.300 It's not for you

00:15:42.900 To know the times

00:15:43.560 Of the seasons

00:15:44.060 Which the father

00:15:44.760 Has put in his own power

00:15:45.800 For John truly

00:15:47.680 Baptized with water

00:15:48.540 But you shall be

00:15:49.200 Baptized with the Holy Ghost

00:15:50.420 Not many days hence

00:15:51.580 When they therefore

00:15:52.820 Were coming together

00:15:53.480 They asked him

00:15:54.020 Saying Lord

00:15:54.460 Will you at this time

00:15:55.280 Restore again

00:15:55.760 The kingdom of Israel

00:15:56.560 Let's just read

00:15:57.560 The rest of this

00:15:57.980 He said to them

00:15:58.440 It's not for you

00:15:59.100 Wait what are we doing

00:15:59.900 We're going in circles

00:16:00.640 Yeah

00:16:01.100 It's not for you

00:16:02.000 To know the times

00:16:02.740 Of the seasons

00:16:03.360 Which the father

00:16:04.260 Has put in his own power

00:16:05.300 We got eight

00:16:07.200 But you shall receive power

00:16:08.680 After that the Holy Ghost

00:16:09.780 Has come upon you

00:16:10.500 Like guys guys

00:16:11.140 This isn't about

00:16:11.700 Some natural kingdom

00:16:12.760 That's not what this is about

00:16:13.660 You're going to receive power

00:16:14.780 After that the Holy Ghost

00:16:16.080 Has come upon you

00:16:16.760 And you shall be witnesses

00:16:17.680 Unto me both in Jerusalem

00:16:18.960 And all Judea

00:16:20.340 This is much bigger

00:16:21.100 Than just Israel

00:16:21.840 And in Samaria

00:16:22.740 And under the uttermost

00:16:23.600 Part of the earth

00:16:24.180 And when he had spoken

00:16:26.900 These things

00:16:27.460 While they beheld

00:16:28.200 He was taken up

00:16:29.240 And a cloud

00:16:29.700 Received him

00:16:30.360 Out of their sight

00:16:31.080 I love that verse

00:16:32.820 They're just watching

00:16:33.780 And boom

00:16:35.000 He just goes

00:16:35.840 They're like

00:16:37.060 Wait what

00:16:37.620 Yeah

00:16:38.680 This story's wild

00:16:39.880 Like all the stories

00:16:41.040 Are wild

00:16:41.480 They're not like

00:16:42.240 Rational

00:16:43.200 Like reasonable stories

00:16:44.540 They're very strange stories

00:16:46.160 Okay sorry

00:16:50.280 I haven't been on a pod

00:16:52.820 For a while

00:16:53.240 Take your time

00:16:57.120 By the grace of God

00:16:58.080 So

00:17:00.280 Okay so there's that

00:17:02.720 Alright so here's another

00:17:04.860 Crazy thing

00:17:05.600 Like as you start

00:17:06.780 To get into this

00:17:07.820 He starts to explain

00:17:11.160 These things about

00:17:11.900 The kingdom of God

00:17:12.800 And like

00:17:13.540 In our mindset

00:17:14.280 We're like

00:17:14.700 Oh yeah

00:17:15.040 Kingdom

00:17:15.460 Like how much

00:17:16.140 Military power

00:17:17.140 Like how much

00:17:18.360 Economic power

00:17:19.460 Like how much

00:17:20.720 I don't know

00:17:21.640 Like minerals

00:17:22.380 And stuff

00:17:23.120 Can we mine

00:17:24.260 Out of the earth

00:17:24.980 On our territory

00:17:25.880 On our soil

00:17:26.680 Like that's what

00:17:27.300 The kingdom's made of

00:17:28.340 Right

00:17:28.600 And he's like

00:17:29.620 No

00:17:30.040 No

00:17:30.780 It's like the character

00:17:32.100 Of the people

00:17:33.220 I don't know

00:17:34.380 This really challenged me

00:17:35.420 This week

00:17:35.900 Even when I was like

00:17:36.680 Working on this

00:17:37.460 That like

00:17:38.240 The greatest thing

00:17:39.040 About a kingdom

00:17:39.820 Is like

00:17:41.460 It's national character

00:17:42.580 And I think

00:17:44.000 And I think

00:17:44.020 What I mean by that

00:17:44.760 Is like

00:17:45.200 I don't know

00:17:47.100 Just watching everybody

00:17:48.020 In like 2020

00:17:48.920 You know what I mean

00:17:51.180 Like in the chaos

00:17:52.220 I feel like that

00:17:54.340 Really revealed

00:17:55.000 The character

00:17:55.640 Of Americans

00:17:57.100 Right

00:17:57.440 Like that

00:17:57.780 And we could say

00:17:59.160 The church

00:17:59.540 So like the

00:18:00.000 Kingdom of God

00:18:00.760 As far as like

00:18:01.300 The so-called church

00:18:02.760 In America

00:18:03.300 And then also

00:18:04.060 Just America

00:18:04.720 In general

00:18:05.320 And so this

00:18:06.540 Could have been

00:18:06.840 Like a great time

00:18:07.540 To like sink

00:18:08.440 Or swim

00:18:08.900 Either way

00:18:09.720 Right

00:18:10.080 But like

00:18:10.660 Watching how people

00:18:12.080 Acted

00:18:12.780 During that time

00:18:14.060 Signing

00:18:15.920 You know

00:18:17.660 Petitions

00:18:18.060 Yes

00:18:18.380 People signing

00:18:18.960 Petitions

00:18:19.380 To get us

00:18:19.760 Closed down

00:18:20.360 Because we're

00:18:20.720 Not wearing masks

00:18:21.600 It was like

00:18:22.240 Oh I don't really

00:18:23.040 Like the character

00:18:23.820 Of that

00:18:24.160 And then people

00:18:24.620 Screaming at each

00:18:25.460 Other because

00:18:26.100 This one

00:18:27.080 Wasn't wearing a mask

00:18:28.400 This one's

00:18:29.160 Screaming at them

00:18:29.700 Because they were

00:18:30.240 Wearing a mask

00:18:31.140 Demanding in people's

00:18:32.820 Face if they got

00:18:33.660 An injection or not

00:18:34.940 Like

00:18:35.660 I don't know

00:18:36.660 I think it would

00:18:37.200 Have been rad

00:18:37.640 If people would have

00:18:38.100 Been like

00:18:38.440 Hey man

00:18:39.060 How are you doing

00:18:39.880 Hey bro

00:18:40.280 I'm good

00:18:40.580 Like I don't want

00:18:41.060 To get this thing

00:18:41.700 Man

00:18:41.900 It really increased

00:18:42.800 My vitamin C

00:18:43.620 D and zinc

00:18:44.440 Man

00:18:44.780 I've been getting

00:18:45.200 Out there

00:18:45.620 I've been running

00:18:46.000 Barefoot at the park

00:18:47.040 The gym's closed

00:18:47.900 I'm getting some

00:18:48.420 Grounding

00:18:48.920 I'm doing jumping jacks

00:18:50.480 Like at all the corners

00:18:51.380 When I run around the park

00:18:52.560 Like I'm feeling good

00:18:53.400 I got the shirt off

00:18:54.200 I'm getting vitamin D

00:18:55.100 I'm getting sunlight

00:18:56.060 The other guy's like

00:18:57.080 No way man

00:18:57.680 That's great

00:18:58.120 I'm not like

00:18:58.680 Really in great shape

00:18:59.400 But I got some

00:18:59.920 Ivermectin

00:19:00.560 I found some other ways

00:19:01.660 To kind of like

00:19:02.200 Get this thing going

00:19:02.980 But you see what I'm saying

00:19:05.360 Like that was a way

00:19:06.440 Where it could have been

00:19:07.180 Like oh cool man

00:19:08.140 People are like thinking

00:19:09.240 And they're not being

00:19:10.480 Like just subdued

00:19:11.520 By this system

00:19:12.280 Bringing them down

00:19:13.080 And like the character

00:19:14.380 Of the kingdom

00:19:15.200 Kind of is the raddest thing

00:19:16.660 About any kingdom

00:19:17.560 Or any nation

00:19:18.340 You know what I mean

00:19:19.580 Like the more I think

00:19:20.260 Through this

00:19:20.620 I'm like this is rad

00:19:21.500 He's explaining

00:19:22.440 The kingdom of God

00:19:23.720 And it's not military power

00:19:25.500 And it's not

00:19:26.020 All these other things

00:19:26.960 It's the character

00:19:27.820 Within that kingdom

00:19:28.820 And so that's

00:19:29.920 That's really

00:19:30.460 Like we had to get

00:19:31.360 To the bottom of that

00:19:32.120 I think John 18.33-40

00:19:35.220 Really kind of explains

00:19:39.000 You know why this is the case

00:19:42.520 With what he's talking about

00:19:43.700 Let's see here

00:19:45.400 Then Pilate entered

00:19:47.960 Into the judgment hole again

00:19:49.740 And called Jesus

00:19:50.520 And said unto him

00:19:51.360 Art thou the king of the Jews

00:19:52.840 Jesus answered him

00:19:55.060 Sayest thou this thing of thyself

00:19:57.700 Or did others tell it thee of me

00:19:59.420 Like this is a very

00:20:02.180 Intriguing interaction dude

00:20:03.340 Remember real

00:20:03.920 Recognize real

00:20:04.660 Jesus is like

00:20:05.300 Did people tell you that

00:20:06.180 Or are you coming

00:20:07.020 To this conclusion

00:20:07.800 He's really challenging Pilate

00:20:09.940 Like this is the scene

00:20:10.780 Where Pilate

00:20:11.440 Is thinking like

00:20:13.000 Okay like this dude's on trial

00:20:14.820 But he appears to be

00:20:16.040 Like the only one here

00:20:17.340 That's not on trial

00:20:18.440 Like you feel like

00:20:19.100 Pilate's like

00:20:19.620 I'm on trial now

00:20:20.540 Yeah

00:20:21.020 And all of the Jewish religion

00:20:22.840 Is on trial now

00:20:23.840 This is a question like

00:20:24.600 Who do you say I am right

00:20:25.700 Yeah

00:20:26.320 Yes

00:20:27.140 Pilate answered

00:20:28.380 Am I a Jew

00:20:29.080 Your own nation

00:20:30.000 And the chief priest

00:20:30.760 Had delivered thee unto me

00:20:31.820 What have you done

00:20:33.020 Jesus answered

00:20:35.920 My kingdom is not of this world

00:20:37.560 Yo

00:20:38.240 That's what I'm saying

00:20:39.540 All of these things

00:20:40.760 In the culture

00:20:41.560 Of the kingdom of God

00:20:42.660 That we're about to unpack

00:20:43.880 In the sermon on the mount

00:20:44.860 Regardless of how many episodes

00:20:45.960 It takes

00:20:46.520 It's all gonna come down

00:20:48.040 To this concept

00:20:49.060 My kingdom is not of this world

00:20:51.480 If my kingdom were of this world

00:20:53.980 Then would my servants fight

00:20:55.340 That's gangster too dude

00:20:56.980 That I should not be delivered

00:20:59.100 To the Jews

00:20:59.620 But now

00:21:00.400 But now

00:21:02.520 Not forever

00:21:04.360 But now

00:21:05.140 Is my kingdom

00:21:06.060 Not from here

00:21:06.960 Pilate therefore said unto him

00:21:09.120 Are you a king then

00:21:09.860 Jesus answered

00:21:10.620 You say that I'm a king

00:21:11.740 He's almost saying

00:21:12.620 Like by your actions

00:21:13.680 You say I'm a king

00:21:14.620 Is really what he's saying

00:21:16.160 Because you could say things

00:21:17.120 With words

00:21:17.720 But then you can say things

00:21:19.480 By actions too

00:21:20.380 He's saying

00:21:21.320 You say I'm a king

00:21:22.260 He's basically saying

00:21:23.560 By you doing this

00:21:25.040 By you crucifying me

00:21:26.160 By you taking part in this

00:21:27.460 You're saying I'm a king

00:21:29.100 To this end was I born

00:21:31.160 And for this cause

00:21:32.000 Came I unto the world

00:21:32.980 That I should bear witness

00:21:34.060 Unto the truth

00:21:34.720 Everyone that is of the truth

00:21:36.440 Hears my voice

00:21:37.380 Pilate saith unto him

00:21:39.800 What is truth

00:21:40.620 And when he had said this

00:21:43.300 He went out again

00:21:43.980 Unto the Jews

00:21:44.500 And saith unto them

00:21:45.440 I find no fault at all

00:21:47.180 That's heavy bro

00:21:48.300 You really wonder

00:21:49.520 How many Christians

00:21:50.340 Have been able to do that

00:21:51.960 Like how many Christians

00:21:52.780 Have really read through the Bible

00:21:54.320 And been able to say

00:21:55.820 I find no fault in Jesus

00:21:58.080 Cause I know like

00:22:00.040 When I first got a Bible

00:22:00.940 When I was 19

00:22:01.680 I'm not talking about

00:22:02.240 Like when I actually

00:22:02.840 Started to walk with God

00:22:03.740 But when I was 19

00:22:04.500 I was looking for

00:22:05.940 Picking Jesus apart

00:22:07.320 Like that's what

00:22:07.800 I was looking for

00:22:08.680 I was looking for

00:22:10.120 Not gonna like him

00:22:11.460 Like not gonna like this

00:22:12.720 No I'm serious

00:22:13.260 I was like

00:22:13.600 I'm not gonna like

00:22:14.340 This whole thing

00:22:14.940 Like I don't like the whole

00:22:16.060 You know we went to

00:22:17.360 Catholic church

00:22:17.860 When I was a kid

00:22:18.520 I was like

00:22:18.820 I don't know

00:22:19.220 This seems sketchy

00:22:20.420 Like the whole

00:22:21.160 Everybody I know

00:22:22.220 That's a Christian

00:22:22.880 I don't know

00:22:23.660 It's kind of

00:22:24.140 Skechosaurus Rex

00:22:25.040 Like I don't really like this

00:22:26.440 And I'm gonna read through this

00:22:27.860 And potentially pick this apart

00:22:29.240 And then I was like

00:22:30.720 Pilot

00:22:31.060 I was like

00:22:31.680 Okay wait

00:22:33.140 There's some disconnect

00:22:34.060 Between him

00:22:35.120 And then

00:22:35.760 Whatever this is

00:22:36.840 In the earth

00:22:37.300 Representing him today

00:22:38.400 Like I find no

00:22:39.600 I was able to say that

00:22:40.520 I was like

00:22:40.820 I find no fault in him

00:22:41.860 I love this guy

00:22:42.900 Like I love this guy

00:22:43.980 And even before

00:22:46.140 I knew he was God

00:22:46.880 You know

00:22:47.420 Then ultimately

00:22:47.980 I was like

00:22:48.420 Okay this is God

00:22:49.360 But even then

00:22:49.900 I was like

00:22:50.180 I love this guy

00:22:50.980 But you have a custom

00:22:54.000 That I should release

00:22:54.760 And you want it to pass over

00:22:55.840 Were you there for

00:22:56.540 That I release

00:22:57.080 And to you

00:22:57.360 The king of the Jews

00:22:58.480 So he's convinced

00:23:01.460 That he's the king

00:23:02.260 He's trying to get him released

00:23:04.720 Then cried they all again

00:23:06.240 Saying

00:23:06.520 Not this man

00:23:07.240 But Barabbas

00:23:08.080 Now Barabbas

00:23:09.980 Was a robber

00:23:10.580 So that's just

00:23:12.100 Another example

00:23:12.860 Of people saying

00:23:13.600 Anything but God

00:23:14.640 Anything but God

00:23:15.500 Okay so he's going to

00:23:17.440 Elaborate about this kingdom

00:23:18.640 And the character

00:23:19.320 Of this kingdom

00:23:20.020 And it's a kingdom

00:23:21.880 That's not of this world

00:23:22.900 And at the core

00:23:23.980 Of all of these

00:23:25.060 Is this word blessed

00:23:26.520 Which in the Greek

00:23:27.480 Is makirios

00:23:29.000 And it means happy

00:23:31.920 Like at the core

00:23:32.860 Of this word

00:23:33.300 Is like happy

00:23:34.040 Which like

00:23:35.100 So at the core

00:23:35.960 Of this is a king

00:23:37.060 Who he wants

00:23:38.260 His citizens

00:23:38.880 To be happy

00:23:39.680 He wants them

00:23:40.260 To be blessed

00:23:41.000 Which is intriguing

00:23:42.260 It means happy

00:23:43.600 Fortunate

00:23:44.080 Or like well off

00:23:45.060 Like you know

00:23:45.740 You hear of like

00:23:46.680 Somebody that's well off

00:23:48.080 You assume it means

00:23:48.780 Like rich

00:23:49.360 That's not what he's saying

00:23:51.600 He's saying like

00:23:52.480 This internal set

00:23:54.000 This internal state of mind

00:23:55.560 And this internal being

00:23:56.720 This is what makes you well off

00:23:58.500 This is a thing

00:23:59.560 That we used to ask

00:24:00.400 Our guests

00:24:01.080 Every

00:24:01.900 After every show

00:24:02.820 And we haven't

00:24:03.320 In a while

00:24:03.720 But the very last question

00:24:05.160 Would be

00:24:05.400 Are you having fun

00:24:06.220 Yeah

00:24:06.680 I think that's what

00:24:08.680 We're asking

00:24:09.220 Like are you of this kingdom

00:24:10.360 Or are you of that kingdom

00:24:11.280 Because if you're not having fun

00:24:12.500 Then you're not

00:24:14.340 Yeah

00:24:15.080 We're not

00:24:15.560 Moving in the same direction

00:24:17.080 Yeah

00:24:17.700 And it's

00:24:18.580 It's happiness

00:24:19.300 Not based on like

00:24:20.480 Owning things

00:24:21.480 I mean it's blessed

00:24:23.540 The word is blessed

00:24:24.480 It's

00:24:24.860 It's more than happy

00:24:25.860 But I think the easiest way

00:24:26.880 For us to understand

00:24:27.620 In the context of this conversation

00:24:28.780 Is like a

00:24:29.140 You're like a happy person

00:24:30.620 And it's not based on

00:24:32.140 Owning things

00:24:32.920 Or popularity among people

00:24:34.540 Which is where

00:24:35.620 How many people

00:24:36.440 This is desperately

00:24:37.360 What they're seeking

00:24:38.120 But they don't understand

00:24:39.520 Like you can come to Christ

00:24:40.840 And this is the format

00:24:43.020 If you will

00:24:43.620 Like this is the culture

00:24:45.020 Of the kingdom

00:24:45.600 For blessed people

00:24:46.960 So you have this mindset

00:24:49.780 That like

00:24:50.180 The character

00:24:51.060 Creates an environment

00:24:52.060 Of happiness

00:24:52.680 Regardless of the

00:24:54.040 External environment

00:24:54.900 Right

00:24:55.180 It's not like

00:24:56.080 It's almost like

00:24:56.940 What do they say

00:24:58.680 Like a thermostat

00:24:59.660 Compared to a

00:25:01.080 This is David's tweet

00:25:02.160 From this morning

00:25:02.760 You don't have to read

00:25:03.480 The curse

00:25:03.880 But

00:25:04.160 Oh he's nasty

00:25:05.740 So he says

00:25:06.240 You're really rubbing off

00:25:07.080 David says

00:25:07.640 F off Doomer

00:25:08.540 I'm a little busy

00:25:09.840 Rejoicing in the day

00:25:10.840 That the Lord has made

00:25:12.000 It's hilarious

00:25:13.080 Because it's

00:25:14.280 It's

00:25:14.780 Vulgar

00:25:16.060 And it's not

00:25:17.340 It's not like

00:25:18.060 The polite person

00:25:19.240 Will look at it

00:25:19.800 And go

00:25:20.140 But the message

00:25:22.320 At heart

00:25:23.060 Is correct

00:25:24.120 It's just delivered

00:25:25.500 So incorrectly

00:25:26.640 That I really

00:25:27.400 That's your last thing

00:25:28.520 That's your jam

00:25:29.400 That's what you do

00:25:30.780 Okay so like

00:25:31.860 It's the difference

00:25:32.300 Between a thermostat

00:25:33.360 And a thermometer

00:25:35.080 Right

00:25:35.440 Like you've heard

00:25:36.220 This before

00:25:36.660 But like a dude

00:25:37.260 Comes into the room

00:25:38.260 He's like changing

00:25:39.360 The atmosphere

00:25:39.920 Around him

00:25:40.500 He's creating blessed

00:25:42.060 Right

00:25:42.380 He's creating blessed

00:25:43.240 He doesn't walk

00:25:43.880 In the room

00:25:44.460 And then depending

00:25:45.400 On the circumstances

00:25:46.420 In the room

00:25:47.240 That's going to dictate

00:25:48.540 To him if he's blessed

00:25:49.440 Or not

00:25:49.780 Like he's blessed

00:25:50.660 He's blessed

00:25:51.280 Because of these

00:25:51.900 Internal things

00:25:52.640 And then where he goes

00:25:53.980 Creates blessed

00:25:55.000 Right

00:25:55.240 Which we talk about

00:25:56.000 Like that's like

00:25:56.580 The job of a father

00:25:57.640 That's the job

00:25:58.320 Of a husband

00:25:58.880 That's the job

00:25:59.960 Of a boss

00:26:00.520 That's the job

00:26:01.100 Of anybody

00:26:01.660 In leadership

00:26:02.280 Is to create

00:26:02.840 An environment

00:26:03.380 Where those

00:26:03.980 That you are

00:26:04.700 Responsible for

00:26:05.620 Can thrive

00:26:06.560 That you know

00:26:08.080 What I'm saying

00:26:08.400 If you're a pastor

00:26:09.080 Like any

00:26:09.700 That's the context

00:26:11.020 Is that like

00:26:11.900 You create an environment

00:26:12.720 Where people can thrive

00:26:13.700 And the blessed man

00:26:14.740 Does that

00:26:15.320 He's blessed

00:26:16.080 He shows up

00:26:16.780 He creates an environment

00:26:17.740 Around him

00:26:18.340 Yeah

00:26:24.420 Alright let's just

00:26:25.060 Get into it then

00:26:25.760 That's just kind of

00:26:26.760 A little bit of an intro

00:26:28.240 Just everybody's

00:26:29.380 On the same page

00:26:30.380 We're going to get

00:26:30.860 Into a lot of topics

00:26:31.840 But right now

00:26:33.220 We'll just read through

00:26:34.340 We'll just read

00:26:36.140 Like 5

00:26:37.040 1 through 12

00:26:38.380 What will you do

00:26:38.840 1 again

00:26:39.240 1 and 2

00:26:39.800 Okay so that's

00:26:42.200 The setup

00:26:42.660 Seeing the multitudes

00:26:43.780 He went up

00:26:44.480 Into a mountain

00:26:44.920 Sorry if that was

00:26:45.460 Like a long-winded

00:26:46.200 Opening

00:26:46.520 But I just think

00:26:47.220 We kind of needed

00:26:47.860 All that for context

00:26:48.820 So a little bit

00:26:49.300 Of a long-winded

00:26:50.020 Opening

00:26:50.320 Or you were tracking

00:26:51.620 Yeah

00:26:52.440 Okay

00:26:52.860 And seeing the multitudes

00:26:54.460 He went up

00:26:54.960 Into a mountain

00:26:55.540 And when he was set

00:26:56.580 His disciples

00:26:57.260 Came unto him

00:26:58.040 And he opened his mouth

00:26:59.260 And taught them

00:26:59.800 Saying

00:27:00.100 Blessed are the poor

00:27:01.440 In spirit

00:27:01.960 For theirs is the

00:27:03.100 Kingdom of heaven

00:27:03.760 Blessed are they

00:27:05.460 That mourn

00:27:06.360 For they shall

00:27:07.020 Be comforted

00:27:07.740 Blessed are the meek

00:27:09.100 For they shall

00:27:09.780 Inherit the earth

00:27:10.620 Blessed are they

00:27:11.820 Which do hunger

00:27:12.580 And thirst

00:27:13.020 After righteousness

00:27:13.800 For they shall

00:27:14.520 Be filled

00:27:15.040 Blessed are the merciful

00:27:16.460 For they shall

00:27:17.220 Obtain mercy

00:27:17.940 Blessed are the pure

00:27:19.240 In heart

00:27:19.620 For they shall

00:27:20.200 See God

00:27:20.860 Blessed are the peacemakers

00:27:22.420 For they shall

00:27:22.940 Be called

00:27:23.340 The children

00:27:23.800 Of God

00:27:24.380 Blessed are they

00:27:25.420 Which are

00:27:25.740 Persecuted

00:27:26.760 For righteousness

00:27:27.400 For theirs

00:27:28.440 Is the kingdom

00:27:29.020 Of heaven

00:27:29.500 Blessed are you

00:27:30.640 When men

00:27:31.040 Shall revile you

00:27:31.960 And persecute you

00:27:33.020 And shall say

00:27:33.840 All manner of evil

00:27:34.780 Against you

00:27:35.320 Falsely for my sake

00:27:36.440 Rejoice and be

00:27:37.640 Exceeding glad

00:27:38.320 For great is your

00:27:39.120 Reward in heaven

00:27:39.940 For so persecuted

00:27:41.900 They the prophets

00:27:42.680 Which were before you

00:27:43.760 There's a lot

00:27:46.160 In there

00:27:46.520 There's a lot

00:27:47.100 In there

00:27:47.320 I like that

00:27:47.780 In the end

00:27:48.160 Where he says

00:27:48.580 Great is your reward

00:27:49.560 In heaven

00:27:49.900 Because that's

00:27:50.400 Another thing

00:27:50.880 That comes up

00:27:51.520 In this

00:27:52.300 I've noticed

00:27:52.960 Some Christian people

00:27:54.160 Are really offended

00:27:54.860 By the context

00:27:55.640 The concept of

00:27:56.780 Like rewards

00:27:57.460 In heaven

00:27:57.900 Some people

00:27:58.520 Are getting

00:27:58.760 Like offended

00:27:59.300 At that

00:27:59.640 Like no

00:28:00.100 Either you're

00:28:00.540 Saved or you're

00:28:00.960 Not saved

00:28:01.360 That's it

00:28:01.760 It's like okay

00:28:02.160 But Jesus talks

00:28:02.900 A lot about

00:28:03.440 Rewards in heaven

00:28:04.280 So there's that

00:28:06.560 Do you want to

00:28:07.340 Like do something

00:28:07.900 What am I supposed

00:28:09.460 To do

00:28:09.760 I don't know

00:28:10.320 He wants me to

00:28:10.900 Say jokes

00:28:11.380 Or something

00:28:11.780 I'm supposed to

00:28:12.740 Give a message

00:28:13.200 While this guy

00:28:13.700 Takes his shirt off

00:28:14.380 Yeah I figured

00:28:14.880 You had something

00:28:15.360 You wanted to talk

00:28:15.880 About

00:28:16.140 Yeah

00:28:16.660 What is this part

00:28:17.960 Right here

00:28:18.340 Blessed are the

00:28:19.940 Peacemakers

00:28:20.560 That's not you

00:28:22.780 We're not doing

00:28:23.660 That

00:28:23.880 That's not you yet

00:28:24.700 I'm not doing

00:28:25.400 You're getting there

00:28:25.960 I don't know

00:28:28.180 We'll see

00:28:29.760 There's a lot

00:28:31.140 Of other categories

00:28:31.780 That I can fall

00:28:32.380 Underneath

00:28:32.860 Exactly

00:28:34.580 Okay let's

00:28:37.280 Oh I don't like

00:28:38.340 The comments

00:28:38.840 Still less than

00:28:39.760 50 minutes

00:28:40.360 That's hilarious

00:28:41.060 It's a little

00:28:42.040 Long winded

00:28:42.720 Opening

00:28:43.100 I'm not doing

00:28:46.600 This

00:28:46.940 Okay so we're

00:28:48.120 In

00:28:48.340 So okay

00:28:50.460 So we're back

00:28:51.040 To verse 3

00:28:51.660 Blessed are the

00:28:52.380 Poor in spirit

00:28:53.100 For theirs is

00:28:53.720 The kingdom of heaven

00:28:54.300 And like I was

00:28:54.760 Saying these are

00:28:55.340 All like

00:28:55.740 Characteristics

00:28:56.780 Of the culture

00:28:58.520 Of the individuals

00:29:00.060 In the kingdom

00:29:00.900 Of God

00:29:01.480 These are characteristics

00:29:02.700 Of a greater character

00:29:04.480 What does it mean

00:29:05.320 Poor in spirit

00:29:06.140 Well let's unpack that

00:29:07.640 The poor in spirit

00:29:08.440 Is like

00:29:09.520 The thing about

00:29:10.140 Someone who's poor

00:29:10.920 They know that

00:29:11.500 They're in need

00:29:12.240 Right

00:29:13.060 They know that

00:29:14.080 They're in need

00:29:14.580 They're poor

00:29:15.100 They're not

00:29:15.920 They're not in delusions

00:29:16.960 Oh I'm rich

00:29:17.720 I'm wealthy

00:29:18.620 I'm in need of nothing

00:29:19.800 They recognize

00:29:21.040 That there's something

00:29:22.000 That they're lacking

00:29:22.860 But the context here

00:29:24.600 Poor in spirit

00:29:26.860 For theirs is

00:29:27.720 The kingdom of heaven

00:29:28.540 The context is

00:29:29.300 That they know

00:29:29.880 That there's a provider

00:29:30.860 And that that provider

00:29:31.900 Is the king

00:29:32.760 Blessed are the poor

00:29:34.480 In spirit

00:29:34.860 For theirs is

00:29:35.960 The kingdom of heaven

00:29:36.840 So they're in need

00:29:38.020 But they're aware

00:29:38.940 That they're a provider

00:29:39.880 That there is a provider

00:29:41.220 And this is the first thing

00:29:42.520 That he tells us

00:29:43.260 It's almost

00:29:43.440 There's a reason

00:29:44.160 It's the first

00:29:44.800 It means like

00:29:45.620 You've got to be

00:29:46.420 Submitted to the king

00:29:47.420 Like step one

00:29:48.400 Is you have to be

00:29:49.220 Submitted to the king

00:29:50.020 Blessed are the poor

00:29:51.520 In spirit

00:29:51.940 For theirs is

00:29:53.140 The kingdom of heaven

00:29:54.680 But step one

00:29:56.020 Is like

00:29:56.300 You've got to be

00:29:56.860 Poor in spirit

00:29:57.480 You've got to recognize

00:29:58.520 That you have a lack

00:30:00.140 And then you have to

00:30:01.220 Recognize that there is

00:30:02.280 One who can provide

00:30:03.160 For that lack

00:30:03.880 And that one

00:30:04.460 Is the king

00:30:05.240 Of this kingdom

00:30:06.020 So that's all

00:30:07.000 This is like submission

00:30:08.000 The most important thing

00:30:09.300 Yeah

00:30:09.580 Yeah

00:30:10.020 That's how I take it

00:30:10.960 Yeah

00:30:11.120 And I think there's

00:30:11.760 Different ways

00:30:12.640 That people unpack this

00:30:13.800 But this is my take on it

00:30:15.240 Yeah

00:30:15.880 Submissiveness to the king

00:30:17.320 Yeah

00:30:18.280 Being able to submit

00:30:19.300 To the king

00:30:19.780 Which a lot of people

00:30:20.580 Can't do

00:30:21.000 Especially like

00:30:21.640 Strong-minded people

00:30:22.800 They really can't submit

00:30:24.700 Right

00:30:25.000 They can't just let

00:30:25.960 Come under the authority

00:30:27.000 Of another

00:30:27.620 But like

00:30:28.540 This is why I say

00:30:29.740 It's easier if you were

00:30:30.480 A junkie

00:30:30.960 Than if you were

00:30:31.400 Like a normal person

00:30:32.380 Because I've already

00:30:34.020 Been down this road

00:30:34.860 Where there was this thing

00:30:35.780 That I didn't want

00:30:36.620 To do anymore

00:30:37.420 But I didn't have

00:30:38.760 The strength in myself

00:30:40.000 To stop

00:30:40.780 Right

00:30:41.280 And so I had to

00:30:42.360 Come to this conclusion

00:30:43.320 That the only way

00:30:44.220 This was going to stop

00:30:45.120 Is if one greater than me

00:30:46.380 Helped me to stop it

00:30:48.120 You've already been

00:30:49.200 Brought to your knees

00:30:50.120 Yeah

00:30:50.620 In a way

00:30:50.960 I've seen

00:30:52.720 I've seen people

00:30:53.320 That bring this up

00:30:54.400 And say

00:30:54.820 Like

00:30:55.620 Almost as a criticism

00:30:57.080 Like why

00:30:57.980 That you're weak

00:30:58.600 It's a crutch

00:30:59.160 Yeah

00:30:59.180 Why do you have to be weak

00:31:00.240 In order to be strong

00:31:01.220 Like look at these Christians

00:31:02.100 Being weak

00:31:02.700 And it's

00:31:03.060 But this is what

00:31:04.480 It's calling for

00:31:05.200 Yeah

00:31:06.620 Right

00:31:07.240 And that's why

00:31:07.940 Like

00:31:08.220 You're going to notice

00:31:09.640 All of this

00:31:10.360 Is the opposite of pride

00:31:11.460 You could say that about

00:31:12.440 What is poor in spirit

00:31:14.760 Well you could just say

00:31:15.580 Very simply

00:31:16.220 The opposite of pride

00:31:17.260 But really you can say that

00:31:18.920 About all of this

00:31:19.820 Like all of the characteristics

00:31:21.260 That unfold

00:31:22.060 In the character of

00:31:22.980 Citizens of the kingdom of God

00:31:24.600 Is the opposite of pride

00:31:26.360 Yeah

00:31:27.540 Submission to the king

00:31:28.520 Is step one

00:31:29.280 I want to stop

00:31:30.460 But I can't

00:31:31.520 But someone can give me

00:31:32.580 The ability or the strength

00:31:34.160 To do it

00:31:35.460 Right

00:31:35.620 Like I already came to that conclusion

00:31:37.080 Because of drugs

00:31:37.920 So that got me like

00:31:38.840 I didn't know it

00:31:39.560 But that got me way further

00:31:40.980 Down the road

00:31:41.800 Than somebody could have got to

00:31:43.480 In the kingdom of God

00:31:44.460 Of never like realizing that

00:31:47.020 And all of this

00:31:47.600 Just being concepts

00:31:48.600 Like I think it's

00:31:49.120 I think it's hard for people

00:31:50.020 If it's just concepts

00:31:51.020 If it's never actually unfolded

00:31:53.080 In their life

00:31:53.700 But like

00:31:55.700 This is another thing

00:31:56.640 Where I'm saying

00:31:57.200 Like all these things

00:31:58.520 That are unfolded here

00:32:02.560 People talk about like

00:32:03.960 What's the number one thing

00:32:05.500 I can do for the kingdom of God

00:32:06.920 And I've always said like

00:32:08.380 Get alone with God

00:32:09.520 Like the number one thing

00:32:10.500 You can do for the kingdom of God

00:32:11.780 Is not the canned food drive

00:32:14.100 Or the fish fry

00:32:15.120 Or the spaghetti dinner

00:32:16.320 Or the mission trip

00:32:18.180 It's you've got to get alone with God

00:32:20.280 And cultivate this inside of you man

00:32:22.460 Like this is

00:32:23.520 This is the number one thing

00:32:24.840 Anybody can do

00:32:25.600 And it's sort of sad

00:32:26.840 When you talk to people

00:32:27.920 And they're like

00:32:28.700 Oh yeah such and such

00:32:29.580 Is on fire for God

00:32:30.500 Oh really no way

00:32:31.360 What's up

00:32:32.000 Oh yeah he did this mission trip

00:32:33.600 He did this youth camp

00:32:34.640 He did like this canned food drive

00:32:36.120 Like yeah that's cool

00:32:37.520 I'm not knocking any of those things

00:32:39.300 But like

00:32:39.780 Those aren't the things

00:32:41.180 That our kingdom's based on

00:32:43.060 Dude

00:32:43.200 Like our kingdom is based

00:32:44.440 On this culture

00:32:45.380 Is unfolded right here

00:32:46.740 In the Sermon on the Mount

00:32:47.580 Dude

00:32:47.800 And like you cultivate this

00:32:49.400 By getting alone with God

00:32:51.060 And I don't think

00:32:51.760 These are things that like

00:32:52.840 You read

00:32:53.860 You memorize

00:32:54.580 You create a creed around it

00:32:56.520 I think these are things

00:32:57.720 That you have to reflect on

00:32:58.880 And look at

00:32:59.440 I think these don't happen

00:33:00.740 As you try to make them happen

00:33:02.340 They only happen

00:33:03.220 As you become intimate with God

00:33:04.700 You get in this time

00:33:06.060 Alone with God

00:33:06.860 And you cultivate

00:33:07.680 This personality

00:33:09.040 That's compatible with God

00:33:10.340 And it looks like this

00:33:11.520 And these are more

00:33:12.520 For like reflection

00:33:13.460 These are more for like

00:33:14.440 Looking back on

00:33:15.320 Not for memorizing

00:33:16.360 And trying in your own strength

00:33:18.100 To live like this

00:33:18.820 But to read these

00:33:19.520 And say man

00:33:20.060 Am I poor in spirit?

00:33:22.260 Like am I poor in spirit?

00:33:24.580 Am I mourning?

00:33:25.620 Like am I these things?

00:33:26.920 Am I hungering and thirsting

00:33:28.100 After righteousness?

00:33:29.020 Like these are things

00:33:29.520 You have to reflect on

00:33:30.640 Which like

00:33:31.320 Like I always say

00:33:32.320 Like all of these things

00:33:33.880 You see in your life

00:33:34.780 If you don't like them

00:33:35.880 You have to say like

00:33:37.060 What was my part in this?

00:33:38.440 That's a big part

00:33:39.500 Of like the culture

00:33:40.520 Of our kingdom man

00:33:41.460 Is being able to reflect

00:33:42.500 Being able to look

00:33:43.620 At these things and say

00:33:44.520 Am I cultivating this?

00:33:46.500 Am I living this?

00:33:47.680 You see what I'm saying?

00:33:49.760 Okay so that's

00:33:50.680 So that's really step one

00:33:51.720 Poor in spirit

00:33:52.420 Blessed are the poor in spirit

00:33:53.660 For theirs is the kingdom of heaven

00:33:55.180 Verse 4

00:33:56.660 Blessed are they that mourn

00:33:57.980 For they shall be comforted

00:33:59.980 I feel like we should have

00:34:03.900 Blue letter Bible

00:34:04.580 Pulled up for

00:34:05.200 The translation of mourn

00:34:06.860 We could

00:34:08.460 Alright let's

00:34:09.220 Let's go ahead

00:34:09.940 And check that out

00:34:11.320 Blessed are they that mourn

00:34:15.240 Almost

00:34:15.740 I wish the raven

00:34:17.200 Was here for this

00:34:17.820 I know he never watches the show

00:34:18.980 But if he did

00:34:19.540 He cries a lot

00:34:20.000 No

00:34:21.080 Blessed are they that

00:34:22.660 Have a heavy spirit

00:34:23.680 I know you guys

00:34:25.100 Love to mock that

00:34:26.000 But there's an element

00:34:28.760 Of that in the kingdom of God

00:34:30.180 Dude

00:34:30.380 There's an element

00:34:31.100 Of like looking at the world

00:34:32.580 Understanding that the majority

00:34:34.340 Of the world

00:34:34.940 People you're at like

00:34:35.920 Your kids baseball games with

00:34:37.380 Your kids jujitsu with

00:34:38.740 You're at Walmart with

00:34:40.320 You're at the gas station

00:34:41.520 You're at work

00:34:42.320 A majority of these people

00:34:43.780 Are on a path away from God

00:34:45.380 That should cause you to mourn

00:34:47.060 That should cause you to mourn

00:34:48.160 You should watch like

00:34:49.320 To lament

00:34:50.700 I remember when I first

00:34:51.960 Came to terms with this

00:34:53.180 This will say like

00:34:54.000 What time period it was

00:34:55.140 I remember being like

00:34:56.380 Yo if you like

00:34:57.280 Watch Oprah and Dr. Phil

00:34:59.100 Like yeah

00:35:00.180 You're gonna mourn

00:35:01.380 Like if that's your context

00:35:03.260 Of like what's going on

00:35:04.660 On the earth

00:35:05.280 Like that should make you mourn

00:35:07.160 But like look at the people

00:35:08.260 In the state that they're in

00:35:09.260 And you should

00:35:09.720 You should have this mindset

00:35:10.780 Of like yeah no

00:35:11.720 Something's not right man

00:35:12.980 I have a heavy spirit about this

00:35:14.260 This is not good

00:35:15.200 Blessed are those that mourn right

00:35:17.500 It's like the rational result

00:35:19.020 Of observing the world

00:35:20.660 They know that's not where

00:35:23.640 Their happiness

00:35:24.800 Or their blessedness comes from

00:35:26.540 And so it's like

00:35:27.480 Looking on this fallen world

00:35:28.880 And it does create a mournfulness

00:35:30.460 And I think there's also

00:35:31.740 Another element of like

00:35:33.340 Looking at your own sin

00:35:34.860 And your own missing of the mark

00:35:36.620 Mr. Archery

00:35:37.500 Your own like missing of the mark

00:35:39.260 And that causes a certain sense

00:35:41.040 Of mourning as well

00:35:41.920 But blessed are those

00:35:42.860 Who can reflect

00:35:43.780 Who can like look at this

00:35:45.460 From the bigger picture

00:35:46.800 And mourn over it

00:35:48.060 Right

00:35:48.840 You know what's intriguing

00:35:51.480 About this too

00:35:52.120 Is that it says like

00:35:53.040 Blessed are they that mourn

00:35:54.420 For they shall be comforted

00:35:56.060 And that word comforted

00:35:57.180 Is the same

00:35:58.000 Greek word

00:35:59.280 Yeah if you got it

00:36:00.100 You got it on Blue Letter Bible

00:36:01.340 Yeah

00:36:02.040 Blessed are they that mourn

00:36:03.540 For they shall be comforted

00:36:04.960 That word comforted

00:36:06.040 Is the same word

00:36:06.920 That's used of the Holy Spirit

00:36:08.860 Uh

00:36:11.040 Paraclete

00:36:11.920 It's Paracleo

00:36:13.460 It's Paracleo

00:36:15.640 It's

00:36:16.300 It's almost saying like

00:36:17.540 Blessed are those that mourn

00:36:18.820 For they shall be Holy Spirited

00:36:20.380 That's how I

00:36:21.480 That's how I like it

00:36:22.360 That's how I want to read it

00:36:23.240 It's like

00:36:23.600 It's the same word

00:36:24.660 They shall be comforted

00:36:26.040 He's called the Comforter

00:36:27.040 He's called the Paraclete

00:36:28.240 That word is

00:36:29.180 They shall be Paracleo

00:36:30.520 Like they shall be comforted

00:36:31.860 They shall be Holy Spirited

00:36:33.740 Yep

00:36:35.680 Paracleo

00:36:36.620 You there?

00:36:37.280 Yeah

00:36:37.500 Here it is

00:36:38.040 Let's go bro

00:36:38.660 This guy's good

00:36:40.700 You're the best producer

00:36:41.780 In the game dude

00:36:42.680 Now I know what everybody's

00:36:43.600 Talking about

00:36:44.380 Isn't that wild?

00:36:47.640 Mm-hmm

00:36:47.960 So it's that same word

00:36:49.180 So blessed are they that mourn

00:36:50.500 For they shall be comforted

00:36:51.880 Let's look at like

00:36:53.080 Uh

00:36:53.740 James 4

00:36:54.740 4 through 10

00:36:55.440 Just to throw in some more passages

00:36:56.820 To kind of give this

00:36:57.880 A little bit better context

00:36:59.080 Go ahead start reading

00:37:06.160 I'll pull it up

00:37:06.620 Okay sorry

00:37:07.220 I thought you were like

00:37:08.020 Mr

00:37:08.340 Sorry I should have got ahead of it

00:37:12.020 No you said I'm good

00:37:13.000 And then you know

00:37:13.640 You got a little off track

00:37:15.180 Yeah you started like answering

00:37:16.480 All right

00:37:17.160 Ye adulterers and adulteresses

00:37:19.180 Know ye not that the friendship

00:37:20.900 Of the world

00:37:21.500 Is enmity with God

00:37:23.040 Whosoever therefore

00:37:24.280 Will be a friend of the world

00:37:25.600 Is the enemy of God

00:37:26.620 We brought this up before

00:37:27.560 We brought this up

00:37:28.300 On our episode about the world

00:37:30.080 But like again

00:37:31.740 Blessed are those that mourn

00:37:33.160 They're looking at the world

00:37:34.360 And they're looking

00:37:35.160 At its decrepit state

00:37:36.160 And they know their happiness

00:37:37.220 Isn't coming from it

00:37:38.240 Right

00:37:39.240 They're not a friend of the world

00:37:40.440 They know that's not

00:37:41.300 Where blessedness comes from

00:37:42.500 Do you think that

00:37:43.460 The scripture says

00:37:44.120 In vain

00:37:44.540 The spirit that dwells

00:37:45.620 Dwells in us

00:37:47.040 Lust to envy

00:37:48.180 That's saying like

00:37:49.900 God

00:37:50.240 Not only is intrigued

00:37:51.980 By what we're doing

00:37:52.840 He's jealous over us

00:37:54.300 Isn't that crazy

00:37:55.180 Like when you're spending

00:37:56.620 Your free time

00:37:57.440 In this or that

00:37:58.540 Or the other

00:37:59.020 And not with God

00:37:59.880 God's watching that

00:38:00.980 And saying like

00:38:01.580 No I want you to

00:38:02.440 Spend that time with me

00:38:03.380 That's a form of worship

00:38:04.980 That's crazy

00:38:05.880 This is a

00:38:06.640 Ed Mabry was just

00:38:08.000 On Tony Merkel's show

00:38:09.020 And the title of the episode

00:38:10.460 Was like

00:38:11.380 It was

00:38:11.920 Is worship

00:38:13.920 Heroin

00:38:14.940 To

00:38:15.860 The Elohim

00:38:16.520 I think I saw that

00:38:16.960 Yeah

00:38:17.220 They love it so much

00:38:18.460 And they want worship

00:38:19.220 So bad

00:38:19.840 Yeah

00:38:20.440 It's kind of interesting

00:38:21.880 Evil

00:38:22.200 God's jealous of it

00:38:23.820 When it goes elsewhere

00:38:24.980 Yeah

00:38:25.840 Yeah amen

00:38:27.020 But imagine that

00:38:28.520 Like I'm doing something

00:38:29.780 In my free time

00:38:30.500 And the creator of the universe

00:38:31.440 Is like bro

00:38:32.000 You don't want to hang out

00:38:33.760 I mean

00:38:35.240 It's really like that

00:38:36.300 But he gives more grace

00:38:39.980 Wherefore he says

00:38:40.760 God resists the proud

00:38:42.040 But gives grace

00:38:42.900 Unto the humble

00:38:43.540 Submit yourselves

00:38:44.700 Therefore to God

00:38:45.620 Resist the devil

00:38:46.720 And he will flee from you

00:38:47.940 Draw close to God

00:38:49.340 And he will draw close to you

00:38:50.700 Cleanse your hands

00:38:51.840 You sinners

00:38:52.320 And purify your hearts

00:38:53.460 You double-minded

00:38:54.260 Be afflicted

00:38:56.360 And mourn

00:38:56.760 And weep

00:38:57.160 Let your laughter

00:38:57.800 Be turned to mourning

00:38:58.820 And your joy

00:39:00.400 To heaviness

00:39:01.040 Humble yourselves

00:39:02.200 In the sight of the Lord

00:39:03.300 And he shall lift you up

00:39:05.220 Right

00:39:06.520 So this is a passage

00:39:07.520 About like

00:39:08.160 Don't have playtime

00:39:10.680 In the world

00:39:11.140 That's not where

00:39:11.840 You're going to get

00:39:12.260 Your happiness from

00:39:13.100 Let's look at

00:39:14.080 1 Corinthians 5

00:39:15.280 1 and 2

00:39:15.940 These are going to

00:39:16.880 There's just a couple

00:39:17.740 Instances

00:39:18.920 That like

00:39:19.440 Of things that should

00:39:20.220 Make you mourn

00:39:20.940 This one's in the church

00:39:21.940 Well that scripture there though

00:39:23.040 Really quickly

00:39:23.740 When it's talking about

00:39:24.880 Draw closer to God

00:39:26.000 And he'll draw closer to you

00:39:27.280 Yeah

00:39:27.600 This was something

00:39:28.720 Remember I told you

00:39:29.580 About this entire

00:39:30.540 Whatever happened last week

00:39:31.660 And it's like

00:39:32.100 I didn't

00:39:33.260 Looking back

00:39:34.620 Would have rather not done it

00:39:35.560 Being in New York City

00:39:37.100 I told my father

00:39:38.480 I was like

00:39:38.800 Man in New York

00:39:39.460 It felt like

00:39:39.900 I was like

00:39:40.200 Far from God

00:39:41.160 Just the place itself

00:39:43.100 Like how everything is

00:39:44.980 And it's like

00:39:45.900 I was like

00:39:46.240 One of the things

00:39:46.780 That was not on my mind

00:39:48.060 Was God

00:39:48.780 And then on top of that

00:39:49.920 Was the conflict

00:39:51.400 That was 100%

00:39:52.700 Wait

00:39:53.160 What conflict from last week?

00:39:55.260 Is that what you're talking about?

00:39:56.620 You love that

00:39:57.360 You were in your glory for that

00:39:58.660 No but not just that

00:39:59.860 It's the

00:40:00.320 It's the compiling

00:40:01.580 Of the conflict

00:40:02.840 Plus being in this place

00:40:04.400 Well then that's not good

00:40:05.400 No it's not good

00:40:06.320 That's what I said

00:40:06.880 You should be able

00:40:07.460 To walk through hell

00:40:08.160 With gasoline boots on

00:40:09.320 And still be super close to God

00:40:10.840 Dude

00:40:11.280 It shouldn't matter

00:40:12.380 Like where we're at

00:40:13.480 It's hard being in New York City

00:40:15.560 And walking through

00:40:17.940 These old places

00:40:19.440 Like

00:40:20.260 You want to talk about mourning

00:40:21.880 Yeah

00:40:22.980 Yeah

00:40:23.640 It's that

00:40:24.400 But it also

00:40:25.060 For me felt like

00:40:25.880 A distance from God

00:40:26.880 I'm like mourning

00:40:27.920 In this place

00:40:28.440 Because I'm seeing

00:40:29.020 My old friends

00:40:30.160 And all these people

00:40:31.140 Doing the same things

00:40:32.240 We did a trade show

00:40:33.040 In Vegas one time

00:40:34.040 And we took everybody

00:40:36.060 To the Cirque du Soleil show

00:40:37.500 Yo that thing

00:40:38.820 I don't know anything

00:40:39.640 About Cirque du Soleil

00:40:40.440 That's got the spirit of death

00:40:41.880 Like in the entire show bro

00:40:43.800 It's all

00:40:44.380 I'm not like into theater

00:40:45.480 I know you love that

00:40:46.180 Nephilim look like clowns

00:40:46.880 I know you like

00:40:47.300 The Hamilton stuff

00:40:48.320 But like

00:40:49.020 Theater is like not my thing

00:40:51.100 But I'm taking like

00:40:51.760 Fancy designers

00:40:52.740 It's like this real expensive thing

00:40:54.300 We're doing for everybody

00:40:55.260 Or whatever

00:40:55.800 I'm like watching the thing

00:40:56.980 Well I gotta get up

00:40:57.880 And leave in the middle of it

00:40:59.120 I'm like I'm not gonna

00:40:59.860 Subject my spirit

00:41:00.700 I know you guys like to mock this

00:41:01.780 But I'm not gonna subject my spirit

00:41:03.300 To like the spirit of death

00:41:04.440 Like this like I'm not playing this game

00:41:05.800 I'm not gonna engage in this

00:41:06.840 And isn't there a heaviness of it

00:41:08.240 When you're in it

00:41:09.360 It's almost like

00:41:10.760 And maybe it's a flaw on my part

00:41:12.360 But I could feel like

00:41:13.320 Whatever closeness I have to God

00:41:14.600 I feel that stretching off of me

00:41:15.920 No

00:41:16.400 That's okay

00:41:17.080 That's not supposed to happen

00:41:18.520 What's supposed to happen

00:41:19.500 Is your spirit gets heavy

00:41:21.000 I know you guys love to mock

00:41:22.680 But you're like

00:41:23.160 I'm not gonna take part in this

00:41:24.380 Like I don't want any part in this

00:41:25.520 So I just asked another rep

00:41:27.500 To like keep an eye

00:41:28.500 On the people that I brought

00:41:29.620 The interior designers that I brought

00:41:30.880 I was like I'm going home

00:41:31.940 Like I'm going home

00:41:32.880 But they were all going to the club

00:41:34.080 And partying until like

00:41:34.780 Two or three in the morning anyway

00:41:35.900 So like that's what you do

00:41:37.420 When you're on the out-of-town trips

00:41:38.520 And I was like

00:41:38.880 I'm not gonna partake of that bro

00:41:40.200 I don't want to be involved in this

00:41:41.500 And it's heavy

00:41:42.760 And it feels gross

00:41:43.560 So I go back to my room

00:41:44.780 Right

00:41:45.000 I get up at like 4.45

00:41:46.300 I read the scripture for a while

00:41:47.720 Nobody else is gonna be up

00:41:48.700 Till like eight or nine

00:41:49.720 For the show

00:41:50.420 So I go out for like a jog

00:41:51.940 On the strip

00:41:52.560 And there's these

00:41:53.240 It's like playing cards

00:41:55.280 Baseball cards

00:41:56.060 Of porno chicks

00:41:56.980 Everywhere

00:41:57.720 Everywhere on the street dude

00:41:59.560 Yeah

00:41:59.960 You're just like

00:42:00.720 God what is going on

00:42:02.400 In this place

00:42:03.160 Like this is crazy

00:42:04.140 You on Fremont

00:42:04.860 Yeah

00:42:05.020 That's what I'm saying

00:42:05.720 Like Vegas is another

00:42:07.000 One of those places

00:42:07.720 Of when I was there

00:42:08.500 And I'm walking through the street

00:42:09.520 I'm like man

00:42:10.000 God's not here

00:42:10.760 I don't think God's here dude

00:42:12.620 It's

00:42:13.160 I don't know dude

00:42:13.980 But you

00:42:14.340 But you should mourn

00:42:15.260 Like you should

00:42:15.780 Like and then I went back

00:42:16.440 To my room

00:42:16.840 And I looked out the window

00:42:17.740 You know

00:42:18.080 And you're like

00:42:18.420 Looking at the whole city

00:42:19.360 And you're just like

00:42:20.020 Groaning

00:42:21.300 You're groaning

00:42:22.320 You're saying

00:42:22.700 Oh

00:42:23.400 God

00:42:24.800 But this happens in the church too

00:42:26.320 Look what

00:42:26.700 We

00:42:26.900 I think we did this last week

00:42:28.520 Or two weeks ago

00:42:29.400 I don't know

00:42:30.380 My time's mixed up

00:42:31.260 Because like you were gone

00:42:32.180 Then I was gone

00:42:33.060 Then

00:42:33.920 You had the guy

00:42:36.120 Timothy Wolverine

00:42:37.020 We don't want to talk about that

00:42:37.860 What scripture

00:42:38.580 Let's read the scripture

00:42:39.500 1 Corinthians 5

00:42:40.520 1 and 2

00:42:40.900 It is reported commonly

00:42:42.060 There's fornication among you

00:42:43.540 And such fornication

00:42:44.500 As is not so much

00:42:45.380 As named among the Gentiles

00:42:46.740 That one should have

00:42:47.320 His father's wife

00:42:48.140 And you're puffed up

00:42:49.680 And have not rather mourn

00:42:51.780 That he that had done this deed

00:42:54.840 Might be taken away from among you

00:42:56.320 So we don't need to unpack that

00:42:57.400 Because we unpacked that

00:42:58.160 In our last episode

00:42:59.580 But he said

00:43:00.860 Like you guys were puffed up

00:43:03.100 You were like glorying in this

00:43:04.500 And your tolerance for this

00:43:05.760 But it should have been the opposite

00:43:06.920 You should have been mourning

00:43:07.900 Right

00:43:08.500 So

00:43:09.360 Blessed are those that mourn

00:43:11.480 Man

00:43:11.680 Like they see these things

00:43:13.040 That are opposite of the kingdom of God

00:43:14.820 Opposite to the good of humanity

00:43:16.700 And it makes them mourn

00:43:18.080 And they see it in society around them

00:43:20.240 And they see it in themselves

00:43:21.200 Like

00:43:21.560 That is one thing

00:43:22.840 The closer you get to God

00:43:23.920 I remember when I first started reading

00:43:25.120 Like deep dudes

00:43:25.980 Who really knew the Lord

00:43:26.960 They would be saying this stuff

00:43:28.480 About like

00:43:29.180 Things they saw inside them

00:43:31.800 That they wanted to get rid of

00:43:33.320 And I felt like

00:43:34.160 It was a little overdramatic

00:43:35.120 And I was like

00:43:35.740 Dude these guys are

00:43:36.300 Like I really like this guy

00:43:37.440 But

00:43:37.680 Like a little overdramatic

00:43:38.900 It was just

00:43:39.400 I hadn't entered into that experience yet

00:43:41.060 I didn't know that yet

00:43:41.980 That I got a lot

00:43:42.580 A little further in the game

00:43:43.740 And I was like

00:43:44.200 Oh dude

00:43:45.360 I do some stuff

00:43:46.340 That like

00:43:46.900 I cringe at

00:43:47.760 Like I do

00:43:48.240 Like I think about stuff

00:43:49.320 From before I knew the Lord

00:43:50.460 And I think about stuff

00:43:51.760 From a couple years ago

00:43:52.740 And I think about stuff

00:43:53.880 Even now

00:43:54.560 That I did

00:43:55.420 And I go

00:43:55.720 Oh

00:43:56.260 Like there's just this sense

00:43:58.200 You just kind of mourn

00:43:59.200 Over some of this stuff

00:44:00.000 But you know that one day

00:44:00.980 It's going to be made right

00:44:01.920 You know what I mean

00:44:02.700 That

00:44:04.040 And that's the comfort

00:44:04.980 Like

00:44:05.300 Blessed are those that mourn

00:44:06.520 For they shall be comforted

00:44:07.840 Okay

00:44:09.060 Blessed are the meek

00:44:10.320 For they shall inherit the earth

00:44:13.440 I don't know

00:44:19.480 So meekness

00:44:20.280 I think the only way

00:44:21.100 To say meekness

00:44:21.840 Is to like

00:44:22.440 Read some passages about it

00:44:25.160 But I think

00:44:25.880 I think at the end of the day

00:44:26.900 Like the meekness thing

00:44:27.860 Is like

00:44:28.120 Those that know that self

00:44:29.480 Is not the most important person

00:44:31.280 In the story

00:44:32.000 Right

00:44:32.320 Like

00:44:32.980 Like that's really

00:44:34.220 What this comes at

00:44:34.900 Like there's a lot of people

00:44:36.120 That they are the main character

00:44:38.460 Of their story

00:44:39.180 And everything revolves around them

00:44:41.220 I think meek people

00:44:42.460 They recognize

00:44:43.320 Like okay

00:44:43.720 I'm part of this bigger story

00:44:45.420 And everything's not about me

00:44:47.060 Like I'm all

00:44:48.040 It's like I'm a support character

00:44:49.480 In this story

00:44:50.440 I'm not the main character

00:44:51.720 Like

00:44:52.680 Like

00:44:52.920 Like of course

00:44:53.720 The main character is God

00:44:55.400 But then the unfolding

00:44:56.840 Of life on the planet

00:44:57.980 Is the bigger picture

00:44:59.060 And it's not all about

00:45:00.180 What I want

00:45:00.840 What am I getting

00:45:01.580 Like me me me

00:45:02.520 Like meek people

00:45:03.620 They're like

00:45:04.380 They're the opposite of that

00:45:05.780 Let's see here

00:45:09.720 Okay

00:45:11.280 Genesis 13

00:45:12.160 1 through 9

00:45:12.700 Are we there?

00:45:14.300 Sorry

00:45:14.780 Sorry

00:45:15.480 Yeah

00:45:15.760 Well

00:45:16.220 Strong's

00:45:17.440 Strong's definition of this

00:45:18.700 Is mildness of disposition

00:45:20.400 Gentleness of spirit

00:45:21.860 That's what meekness means

00:45:23.880 Yeah

00:45:24.340 Well I think that's good

00:45:27.000 I think that meekness

00:45:28.200 Biblically

00:45:29.160 Also

00:45:30.380 There's an element of it

00:45:32.000 That like

00:45:32.520 You're those things

00:45:34.620 But not from

00:45:35.640 Not from a place of weakness

00:45:37.100 Yeah

00:45:38.000 It's the guy

00:45:38.460 It's the guy that has the sword

00:45:39.400 But chooses not to draw it

00:45:40.820 If that makes any sense

00:45:42.240 That's a fair

00:45:42.720 Yeah

00:45:43.020 Well that's what we're gonna read

00:45:44.120 That's what we're gonna read

00:45:44.840 Watch it

00:45:45.280 Like I feel like

00:45:45.860 These are stories

00:45:46.640 That kind of unpack

00:45:47.500 The concept behind meekness

00:45:49.180 Right

00:45:49.440 All right

00:45:51.380 So we're in Genesis 13

00:45:52.460 We're gonna read 1 through 9

00:45:53.480 And Abram went up out of Egypt

00:45:55.180 He and his wife

00:45:56.020 And all that he had

00:45:56.920 And a lot with him

00:45:57.720 Into the south

00:45:58.480 And Abram was very rich

00:45:59.900 In cattle

00:46:00.640 In silver

00:46:01.780 And in gold

00:46:02.680 Those are running right now

00:46:04.300 Dude

00:46:05.220 Running

00:46:05.700 How much bitcoin did he have

00:46:06.880 He wasn't into that

00:46:08.360 Dude

00:46:08.540 But silver and gold

00:46:09.420 And cattle

00:46:10.320 Had been money

00:46:10.760 Like forever

00:46:11.600 And he went on his journeys

00:46:13.080 From the south

00:46:13.700 Even to Bethel

00:46:14.400 Under the place

00:46:15.020 Where his tent had been

00:46:16.020 At the beginning

00:46:16.600 Between Bethel and Haig

00:46:18.560 Under the place of the altar

00:46:20.680 Which he had made there

00:46:21.580 At the first

00:46:22.100 We'll unpack Abraham's life

00:46:23.580 One day

00:46:23.940 But those

00:46:24.360 Those are the two things

00:46:25.420 That mark the life of Abraham

00:46:26.820 His tent and his altar

00:46:28.400 Like his tent was like

00:46:29.380 God

00:46:29.600 I'll go when you

00:46:30.320 Tell me to go

00:46:31.040 Like these guys

00:46:31.920 Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

00:46:33.120 Are like the richest dudes

00:46:34.100 On the planet

00:46:34.700 And they live in tents

00:46:36.380 Like they could have

00:46:37.500 Built palaces

00:46:38.220 They could have built

00:46:39.240 Their own tower of Babel

00:46:40.280 They could have built

00:46:40.840 Whatever they wanted

00:46:41.680 They could have built

00:46:42.300 Any structure

00:46:43.180 And they live in tents

00:46:44.720 They live in this

00:46:45.780 Not permanent thing

00:46:47.160 As if to say

00:46:48.380 God

00:46:48.620 When you tell me to go

00:46:49.500 I go

00:46:49.920 Like when you tell me

00:46:50.720 To stay

00:46:50.980 I stay

00:46:51.400 But I don't live

00:46:52.200 In like a permanent thinking

00:46:53.560 I live in a state of mind

00:46:54.860 Where I'm connected to you

00:46:55.900 And I just do

00:46:56.960 Whatever you want me to do

00:46:58.160 And I got an altar

00:46:59.340 Which is

00:46:59.860 Yeah

00:47:00.060 The worship

00:47:00.560 It doesn't say

00:47:02.320 You had a guitar

00:47:02.940 Or drums

00:47:03.620 Which I'm not saying

00:47:04.180 You can't use

00:47:04.680 Those for worship

00:47:05.440 But like an altar

00:47:06.600 It was really

00:47:07.340 The place of worship

00:47:08.180 And there

00:47:09.580 Abram called on

00:47:10.340 The name of the Lord

00:47:10.960 And Lot also

00:47:11.920 Which went with Abraham

00:47:12.960 Abram

00:47:14.200 Had flocks

00:47:14.980 And herds

00:47:15.640 And tents

00:47:16.260 So Lot

00:47:17.820 Who's his nephew

00:47:18.440 That he took in

00:47:19.000 Like a son

00:47:19.640 Because he loved him

00:47:20.920 Lot only has

00:47:22.260 What he has

00:47:23.000 Because of his

00:47:23.720 Connection to Abraham

00:47:24.580 Like if Abraham

00:47:25.180 Just leaves him

00:47:26.020 Lot doesn't have anything

00:47:27.300 Maybe he just kind of

00:47:28.140 Dies in Mesopotamia

00:47:29.280 In Ur of the Chaldees

00:47:30.440 You know

00:47:30.700 Maybe he just kind of

00:47:31.460 Leaves him there

00:47:32.040 And hey

00:47:32.500 Good luck Lot

00:47:33.160 But no

00:47:33.680 Abraham brings him

00:47:34.560 With him

00:47:34.920 And because of that

00:47:36.040 Lot is blessed now

00:47:37.120 And the land was not able

00:47:38.900 To bear them

00:47:39.540 That they might dwell together

00:47:40.980 For their substance

00:47:42.080 Was great

00:47:42.660 So that they could not

00:47:43.400 Dwell together

00:47:44.000 And there was a strife

00:47:44.920 Between the herdmen

00:47:45.700 Of Abram's cattle

00:47:46.460 And the herdmen

00:47:46.940 Of Lot's cattle

00:47:47.640 And the Canaanite

00:47:48.520 And the Perizzite

00:47:49.260 Dwelt then in the land

00:47:50.380 And Abram said unto Lot

00:47:52.400 Let there be no strife

00:47:54.400 I pray thee

00:47:54.940 Between me and thee

00:47:56.280 And between my herdmen

00:47:57.800 And thy herdmen

00:47:58.700 For we're brethren

00:47:59.880 Is not the whole land

00:48:02.180 Before thee

00:48:02.780 Separate thyself

00:48:03.980 I pray thee from me

00:48:05.080 If you will take

00:48:06.040 The left hand

00:48:06.700 Then I'll go to the right

00:48:07.760 Or if you depart

00:48:08.560 To the right

00:48:09.080 Then I'll go to the left

00:48:10.280 Like to me

00:48:11.320 That's a biblical example

00:48:13.180 Of meek

00:48:14.640 Like you only have

00:48:16.940 What you have

00:48:17.740 Because of the blessing

00:48:18.760 You've obtained

00:48:19.400 From your relationship

00:48:20.220 To me

00:48:20.660 So I have every right

00:48:22.520 To say hey

00:48:23.080 I'm picking the left

00:48:23.980 Or the right

00:48:24.380 You go the other way

00:48:25.440 But meekness says

00:48:26.900 No no

00:48:27.280 It's cool man

00:48:28.180 I'm not the big shot here

00:48:29.320 Like I love you

00:48:30.140 I'm not the main

00:48:30.880 I'm not the most important

00:48:31.720 Person in the story

00:48:32.360 You go wherever you want

00:48:33.440 Because I'll be good

00:48:34.020 Either way

00:48:34.360 I'm with the Lord

00:48:35.040 So I'll be good

00:48:35.800 Either way bro

00:48:36.360 So you pick a way

00:48:37.280 And then I'll go

00:48:37.780 The other way

00:48:38.360 This is a great example

00:48:40.080 Of this

00:48:40.700 This kind of like

00:48:42.280 Old guard thinking

00:48:43.240 That we've been discussing

00:48:44.300 On the show previously

00:48:45.560 Of you have this issue

00:48:48.360 Right

00:48:48.620 There's a land issue

00:48:49.680 And it's just

00:48:50.720 It's just a sustainability thing

00:48:53.120 Right

00:48:53.400 My cattle can't eat here

00:48:54.880 Because your cattle are here

00:48:55.660 But I enjoy your company

00:48:56.700 What do we do?

00:48:58.240 Do we fight over this

00:48:59.280 Little bit of land

00:49:00.000 Or do we realize

00:49:01.040 That there's a lot more

00:49:02.480 And there's like

00:49:04.080 There's no famine here

00:49:05.120 We just have to go that way

00:49:06.620 You go that way

00:49:07.160 I go this way

00:49:07.780 And it's like

00:49:08.500 What a genius thing to do

00:49:09.900 Rather than being trapped

00:49:10.920 In this

00:49:11.380 We should kill each other

00:49:12.680 Over this land

00:49:13.520 You know what I'm saying?

00:49:14.400 That's a

00:49:14.680 Yeah

00:49:14.940 That's a great

00:49:15.580 Yeah

00:49:16.160 This is what they could have done

00:49:17.380 And it's what people do all day

00:49:18.520 Sure

00:49:18.880 Yeah

00:49:19.220 No you're right

00:49:20.260 Yeah that is an intriguing thing

00:49:22.300 Of how they handled it

00:49:23.340 It's a sacrifice as well right

00:49:25.620 Because I'm sure

00:49:26.520 That he wanted to hang out with a lot

00:49:27.600 It seems like they enjoyed each other

00:49:28.660 But he's like

00:49:29.060 Well

00:49:29.280 Time has come

00:49:30.580 We'll split it up

00:49:31.700 Or we can kill each other

00:49:32.620 What do we do here

00:49:34.120 Right

00:49:34.400 Yeah

00:49:34.780 And then he lets him choose too

00:49:36.220 Yeah it's meekness man

00:49:37.840 Watch this

00:49:39.400 This one's heavy

00:49:40.720 Because the context of this

00:49:41.840 Is like

00:49:42.220 Saul has been hunting David

00:49:43.940 Like a dog dude

00:49:45.060 He's just trying to kill him

00:49:46.460 David's running for his life

00:49:48.480 Like all

00:49:48.820 You read all the Psalms

00:49:49.880 Where he's just like

00:49:50.540 Pleading for his life

00:49:51.600 And he's at the point of death

00:49:53.340 He's just over it

00:49:54.280 Like Saul has put him

00:49:55.360 In that bad of a spot

00:49:56.780 Watch how he deals with

00:49:58.020 Watch how David deals with Saul

00:49:59.860 And it came to pass

00:50:01.960 When Saul was returned

00:50:02.860 From following the Philistines

00:50:04.140 That it was told him

00:50:05.620 Saying

00:50:06.580 Behold David is in the wilderness

00:50:10.940 Of En Gedi

00:50:11.520 Then Saul took

00:50:12.900 Three thousand chosen men

00:50:14.280 Out of all Israel

00:50:15.140 And went to seek David

00:50:16.320 And his men

00:50:17.200 Upon the rocks

00:50:18.040 Of the wild goats

00:50:18.920 So he's just living

00:50:20.300 With the wild goats

00:50:21.300 David's got like

00:50:22.120 This band of thieves

00:50:23.300 He's just got like

00:50:24.640 All of the like

00:50:25.600 All of the men

00:50:26.480 That have been rejected

00:50:27.280 From society

00:50:28.140 It's almost like Florida

00:50:29.380 They all just go

00:50:30.620 Like bond to David

00:50:31.860 They all are with David now

00:50:33.780 And he came to the sheep coats

00:50:35.860 By the way

00:50:36.640 Where was a cave

00:50:37.700 And Saul went in

00:50:38.520 To cover his feet

00:50:39.320 And David and his

00:50:41.220 Men remained

00:50:42.960 In the sides of the cave

00:50:44.040 I think that means

00:50:46.040 He was going in

00:50:46.500 To go to the bathroom

00:50:47.220 And the men of David

00:50:49.740 Said unto him

00:50:50.260 Behold the day of which

00:50:51.400 The Lord has said unto thee

00:50:52.600 Behold I will deliver

00:50:53.760 Your enemy into your hand

00:50:54.960 That you may do to him

00:50:56.460 As it shall seem good unto you

00:50:57.920 So they're like

00:50:59.600 Bro

00:50:59.980 God has delivered Saul here

00:51:01.560 Like he's taking a dump

00:51:02.860 You can kill him

00:51:03.540 Right now dude

00:51:04.420 He's completely defenseless

00:51:05.560 Then David arose

00:51:07.360 And cut off

00:51:09.000 The skirt

00:51:09.820 Of Saul's robe

00:51:11.360 Privily

00:51:12.200 The new David movie

00:51:14.620 The kids one

00:51:15.600 Does a really great job

00:51:16.600 Of this

00:51:16.840 Because it

00:51:17.240 Brings this

00:51:18.060 This example

00:51:19.080 But David's within a cave

00:51:20.760 And there's a small waterfall

00:51:22.540 And Saul is in front

00:51:23.860 Of the waterfall

00:51:24.400 And David can see him

00:51:25.680 But Saul doesn't think

00:51:27.600 To look through it

00:51:28.260 It's a really powerful metaphor

00:51:30.560 Because he's right there

00:51:31.700 Yeah it's interesting

00:51:32.220 So he grabs it

00:51:32.760 Cuts it off

00:51:33.120 Well think about the composure

00:51:34.040 This dude's got to have

00:51:35.060 In that moment bro

00:51:36.000 Think about when you get

00:51:36.740 Buck fever

00:51:37.320 Just to shoot a deer

00:51:38.320 Shaken

00:51:39.540 There he is

00:51:40.420 Imagine there's a human

00:51:41.220 That's been trying to kill you

00:51:43.760 That's been hunting you

00:51:44.620 To kill you

00:51:45.260 And he's got to like

00:51:46.640 Roll up on him

00:51:47.520 And just kind of cut

00:51:48.420 A little piece off

00:51:49.780 Of his cape

00:51:50.500 His skirt

00:51:51.320 Dude's wearing a skirt

00:51:53.700 This is wild bro

00:51:54.880 And it came to pass

00:51:57.760 Afterward that David's heart

00:51:58.940 Smote him

00:51:59.520 Because he had cut

00:52:00.280 Saul's skirt

00:52:01.060 Not because he didn't

00:52:02.420 Kill him

00:52:02.840 But because he did

00:52:03.480 Even this thing

00:52:04.240 To cut off the edge

00:52:05.400 Of his skirt

00:52:05.960 Yeah you don't like that

00:52:07.120 You're like yeah

00:52:07.820 You should have got him

00:52:08.760 No I

00:52:09.480 Oh yeah

00:52:10.380 Don't feel bad

00:52:11.080 About the skirt

00:52:11.620 And he said unto his men

00:52:13.000 The Lord forbid

00:52:14.020 That I should do this thing

00:52:15.180 Unto my master

00:52:15.860 The Lord's anointed

00:52:16.820 To stretch forth

00:52:18.140 My hand against him

00:52:19.300 Seeing he is

00:52:20.260 The anointed of the Lord

00:52:21.340 Which is a common thing

00:52:22.260 With David

00:52:22.640 He's like I'm not

00:52:23.260 Going to go against this dude

00:52:24.240 Because he's the anointed

00:52:25.100 Of the Lord

00:52:25.620 It's a very honorable man

00:52:27.820 So David stayed

00:52:29.540 His servants

00:52:30.280 With these words

00:52:31.500 And suffered them

00:52:32.240 Not to rise against Saul

00:52:33.420 But Saul rose up

00:52:34.500 Out of the cave

00:52:35.120 And went on his way

00:52:35.940 David also arose

00:52:37.780 Afterward

00:52:38.340 And went out of the cave

00:52:39.180 And cried after Saul

00:52:40.100 Saying my lord the king

00:52:41.280 And when Saul

00:52:42.340 Looked behind him

00:52:43.120 David stooped

00:52:44.020 With his face

00:52:44.600 To the earth

00:52:45.120 And bowed himself

00:52:46.060 He bows down

00:52:47.200 To this guy

00:52:47.640 That he could have

00:52:48.060 Just killed

00:52:48.580 And David said to Saul

00:52:50.660 Wherefore hearest

00:52:52.100 Thou men's words

00:52:53.380 Saying behold

00:52:54.300 David seeks thy hurt

00:52:55.540 He's saying bro

00:52:56.540 You're listening to people

00:52:57.800 Like say something about me

00:52:59.040 That's not true

00:52:59.740 Like I'm not trying to kill you

00:53:01.680 I don't want any harm

00:53:02.700 To happen to you

00:53:03.460 Behold this day

00:53:04.980 Your eyes have seen

00:53:06.020 How that the Lord

00:53:06.640 Has delivered you today

00:53:07.640 Into my hand in the cave

00:53:08.980 And some told me to kill you

00:53:10.720 But my eye hath spared thee

00:53:12.260 Remember we talk about

00:53:13.980 Your eye must be single

00:53:15.040 That's an interesting phrase

00:53:16.080 My eye hath spared thee

00:53:17.460 And I said

00:53:18.400 I will not put forth

00:53:19.420 My hand against my lord

00:53:20.640 For he is the lord's anointed

00:53:21.840 Moreover my father

00:53:22.860 See

00:53:23.260 Yea see the skirt

00:53:24.680 Of your robe

00:53:25.240 In my hand

00:53:25.880 For in that I cut off

00:53:27.120 The skirt of your robe

00:53:28.100 And I didn't kill you

00:53:29.580 Know thou and see

00:53:30.980 That there is neither evil

00:53:32.120 Nor transgression

00:53:33.500 In my hand

00:53:34.100 And I have not

00:53:34.740 Sinned against you

00:53:35.580 Yet you hunt my soul

00:53:37.020 To take it

00:53:37.640 He says look dude

00:53:38.480 I cut off your skirt

00:53:39.640 I could have killed you

00:53:40.600 And I didn't

00:53:41.480 The lord judge

00:53:43.180 Between me and you

00:53:44.020 And the lord avenge me of thee

00:53:45.720 But my hand

00:53:46.820 Shall not be upon thee

00:53:47.940 I know you guys

00:53:49.660 Don't like that either

00:53:50.420 But it's like

00:53:51.000 This mindset

00:53:51.600 Of where like

00:53:52.520 Let God deal with it

00:53:54.060 Let God deal with it

00:53:55.220 You can go around

00:53:56.060 Like getting revenge

00:53:57.060 On people

00:53:57.700 You can go around

00:53:58.820 One-upping people

00:53:59.820 But you can also

00:54:00.820 Just be like

00:54:01.320 Here God

00:54:01.760 You take it

00:54:02.380 Yeah but God

00:54:02.900 God also delivered this

00:54:03.900 He delivered him to David

00:54:05.460 Amen

00:54:05.940 I guess it was David's choice

00:54:09.320 To make this example

00:54:10.260 But hey

00:54:11.660 God gave him to you

00:54:13.060 So you're just saying

00:54:13.820 You wouldn't have did

00:54:14.760 What

00:54:15.200 Probably not

00:54:16.340 Bro what

00:54:17.380 Okay but you're just saying

00:54:18.780 You're growing

00:54:19.340 You're kind of early in the game

00:54:20.840 But

00:54:21.100 Don't deliver me my enemies

00:54:24.160 We don't play games around here

00:54:26.260 No you don't

00:54:27.380 You don't

00:54:27.980 I'm not David

00:54:29.080 The lord judge between me and you

00:54:31.040 And the lord avenge me of thee

00:54:32.360 But my hand shall not be upon thee

00:54:34.180 As sayeth the proverb of the ancients

00:54:36.260 Wickedness proceeds from the wicked

00:54:38.020 But my hand shall not be upon you

00:54:40.280 See what I'm saying

00:54:41.720 After whom is the king of Israel come out

00:54:44.440 After whom do you pursue

00:54:45.740 After a dead dog

00:54:47.080 After a flea

00:54:47.980 This is meekness

00:54:48.960 He doesn't say

00:54:49.660 Yeah you punk

00:54:50.660 Like I had you

00:54:51.460 I could have killed you

00:54:52.380 He says no man

00:54:53.520 I could have killed you

00:54:54.300 But I'm just a dead dog man

00:54:55.640 I'm just a flea

00:54:56.620 Like that's what he says

00:54:58.480 This is meekness

00:54:59.420 He doesn't say

00:55:00.540 Yeah I got you cornered now

00:55:02.200 He goes no no man

00:55:03.200 Who are you coming out after

00:55:04.280 I'm just a dead dog

00:55:05.200 I'm just a flea man

00:55:06.260 So of course there's this humility

00:55:08.100 That's wrapped up in meekness too

00:55:09.500 The lord therefore be judge

00:55:11.200 And judge between me and you

00:55:12.360 And see and plead my cause

00:55:13.740 And deliver me out of your hand

00:55:15.060 He keeps coming back to that

00:55:16.280 Let God deal with this

00:55:17.440 And it came to pass

00:55:18.560 When David made an end

00:55:19.380 To speak in these words

00:55:20.300 And to Saul

00:55:20.740 That Saul said

00:55:21.620 Is this your voice

00:55:22.760 My son David

00:55:23.460 And Saul lifted up his voice

00:55:24.660 And wept

00:55:25.100 I think this is what

00:55:26.660 Some people would call

00:55:27.340 A moment of clarity

00:55:28.160 And he said to David

00:55:29.540 You're more righteous than I

00:55:30.780 For you have rewarded me good

00:55:32.060 Whereas I have rewarded you evil

00:55:33.660 And you have showed this day

00:55:35.360 How that you have dealt well with me

00:55:37.380 For as much as when the lord

00:55:38.560 Had delivered me into your hand

00:55:39.900 You didn't kill me

00:55:40.780 For if a man find his enemy

00:55:42.480 Will he let him go well away

00:55:44.260 Wherefore the lord reward thee good

00:55:46.360 For that thou hast done unto me this day

00:55:48.160 And now behold

00:55:49.060 I know well

00:55:49.760 That you shall surely be king

00:55:51.280 And that the kingdom of Israel

00:55:52.700 Shall be established in your hand

00:55:54.340 Swear now therefore unto me by the lord

00:55:57.420 That you will not cut off my seed after me

00:55:59.620 And that you will not destroy my name

00:56:01.400 Out of my father's house

00:56:02.440 And David swear unto Saul

00:56:03.660 And Saul went home

00:56:04.460 But David and his men

00:56:05.300 Got him up unto the hold

00:56:06.380 That's a wild passage bro

00:56:08.260 You can make the argument

00:56:09.500 That Saul fell more than any person

00:56:11.340 Has ever fell

00:56:12.000 What does it mean

00:56:12.440 They got him up unto the hold

00:56:13.720 They just got him back

00:56:14.940 Into the hiding place

00:56:15.800 Okay

00:56:16.840 But Saul

00:56:19.820 Like in a moment of clarity

00:56:20.960 Says hey man

00:56:21.660 At least don't destroy

00:56:22.860 Like my

00:56:23.540 At least don't destroy

00:56:25.640 Like my descendants

00:56:27.800 Like he's

00:56:29.140 Like he kind of has this concept

00:56:30.580 Of eternity

00:56:31.140 But like he's already

00:56:31.920 Screwed it up so much

00:56:33.040 That he can't

00:56:33.780 Like he's gone

00:56:34.480 Yeah

00:56:35.280 But he at least

00:56:38.320 Has this moment of clarity

00:56:39.820 To say like hey

00:56:40.500 Don't destroy all my descendants

00:56:41.900 It's just a wild story

00:56:43.060 But it's another example

00:56:44.020 Of meekness

00:56:44.620 So you don't think

00:56:45.320 If David slayed him right there

00:56:46.660 It would have been alright

00:56:47.220 Because you know

00:56:48.340 David says

00:56:48.960 The lord anointed you

00:56:50.720 But no

00:56:51.120 The lord anointed David

00:56:52.420 And that

00:56:53.880 That anointing on Saul

00:56:54.860 Passed long before

00:56:55.940 It's an interesting discussion

00:56:57.120 But he also needed him there

00:56:58.960 To teach him

00:56:59.760 He needed him to teach him

00:57:01.220 How to be king

00:57:01.800 A little bit

00:57:02.320 Like a couple of these lessons

00:57:03.280 Afterward

00:57:03.840 What do you mean

00:57:04.360 If he kills him right there

00:57:05.980 He dies

00:57:06.380 But I think David still

00:57:07.540 Had a lot more to learn

00:57:08.380 Yeah

00:57:09.040 You know what I mean

00:57:09.920 I think that's a great way

00:57:10.740 To look at it

00:57:11.260 Yeah

00:57:11.420 Yeah and I think

00:57:13.000 To your point

00:57:13.500 Like this story

00:57:14.460 Like that's always

00:57:15.120 The funny thing

00:57:15.780 About people who believe

00:57:16.940 In like hyper

00:57:17.700 Predetermined

00:57:19.260 Like they call it

00:57:20.240 Predestination

00:57:20.960 But what they really mean

00:57:21.800 Is predetermined

00:57:22.680 It's like yeah

00:57:23.380 I think we have to

00:57:23.880 Look at these stories

00:57:24.520 And know they could have

00:57:25.280 Went a lot of different ways

00:57:26.480 And don't just think

00:57:27.540 That like because

00:57:28.140 It went this way

00:57:29.160 That like

00:57:30.260 Oh it was predetermined

00:57:31.760 It was going to go that way

00:57:32.640 No dude

00:57:33.200 He could have killed him

00:57:33.860 Right there in the cave

00:57:34.580 And to your point

00:57:35.440 Could have been justified

00:57:37.440 God gave it to him

00:57:39.200 Meekness is on another level though

00:57:41.020 Meekness is on another level

00:57:43.520 Having the sword

00:57:45.300 Not using it though

00:57:46.260 Yeah

00:57:46.540 Being very dangerous dude

00:57:47.880 This is a

00:57:48.580 Also a Jordan Peterson point

00:57:50.120 You love him bro

00:57:51.740 You even get like

00:57:52.360 Your names from him and stuff

00:57:53.800 Yeah some of his old stuff

00:57:55.120 Was great

00:57:55.560 I thought you said

00:57:56.160 He was a wanker

00:57:56.860 Because he was like

00:57:57.500 I got the thing Trudeau

00:57:58.880 Now are you happy

00:57:59.980 Yeah but in his first book

00:58:01.320 He talks about

00:58:02.160 When he's talking to young men

00:58:03.340 That's so embarrassing

00:58:04.220 If he said that like that

00:58:05.480 It is embarrassing

00:58:06.360 But the things he said before it

00:58:07.600 Like he's talking to a young man

00:58:08.920 He's saying you have to be able

00:58:10.220 You have to be able to be dangerous

00:58:12.240 But have the ability to withhold that

00:58:14.860 I like that

00:58:15.440 You gotta be like

00:58:15.940 You know you have to be that animal

00:58:17.100 But you have to

00:58:17.800 Yeah you can't just be a wanker

00:58:19.080 And be soft

00:58:19.660 That's not meekness

00:58:20.520 That makes you really dangerous

00:58:21.500 I think that's the point

00:58:22.060 We're trying to get across

00:58:23.000 It's like meekness is not weakness

00:58:25.040 Like I think that's

00:58:25.920 Maybe even on a bumper sticker

00:58:27.260 Or a t-shirt

00:58:27.860 But meekness does not mean

00:58:30.480 You're like this little wanker

00:58:31.580 That can't do anything

00:58:32.520 It means no no

00:58:33.320 You can and you choose not to

00:58:35.000 Right that

00:58:35.720 It's like this ultimate strength man

00:58:37.520 That archetype is the dude

00:58:38.760 That goes to

00:58:39.560 That goes to the protest

00:58:41.700 To just hit on the girl

00:58:42.700 So he's like

00:58:43.240 Oh look at how weak I am

00:58:44.200 Like that

00:58:44.480 You know what I mean

00:58:44.920 But that dude's dangerous inside

00:58:46.540 It's true

00:58:47.160 Because he's festering

00:58:48.060 He's festering anger

00:58:48.980 But the dude that's strong

00:58:50.160 And confident within himself

00:58:51.260 That chooses not to do

00:58:52.560 This outward expression of violence

00:58:54.820 That's the guy

00:58:56.060 That's meek

00:58:57.100 Because he can be violent

00:58:58.700 But he's not

00:58:59.520 Right

00:59:00.080 I think that's the main thing

00:59:01.220 You gotta get

00:59:01.800 Because some people are like

00:59:02.720 Well I'm just a wanker

00:59:03.840 So I'm meek

00:59:04.480 No

00:59:05.000 No

00:59:05.980 That's okay

00:59:06.980 That's good

00:59:07.460 That you're not like nasty

00:59:08.440 And mean

00:59:08.820 Or whatever

00:59:09.460 But like

00:59:10.520 Meekness is specifically

00:59:11.580 That you're able

00:59:12.440 Like Abram

00:59:13.260 Had every right

00:59:14.480 To say

00:59:14.840 I'm taking whatever land

00:59:15.960 I want

00:59:16.420 David had every right

00:59:18.140 To your point

00:59:18.720 To kill Saul

00:59:19.660 Right

00:59:20.760 It's like

00:59:21.160 They had the ability

00:59:22.120 And the right

00:59:22.760 And they still chose not to

00:59:24.260 Like that's meekness

00:59:25.420 And that's why we like

00:59:26.660 To use biblical examples

00:59:27.720 But you can't talk about

00:59:29.420 This topic called meek

00:59:30.660 Or meekness

00:59:31.300 Without bringing up

00:59:31.980 The dude Moses

00:59:32.720 Or as they say

00:59:34.760 In the Hebrew

00:59:35.220 Moshe

00:59:35.700 I know you've been

00:59:37.960 Spending time

00:59:38.460 With the Jewish group

00:59:39.200 Back there

00:59:39.620 And you don't want me

00:59:40.160 To like tell everybody

00:59:40.920 But that's fine

00:59:41.840 Thank you

00:59:42.520 I appreciate it

00:59:43.100 If you kept it quiet

00:59:43.800 Numbers 12-3 says this

00:59:45.040 Now the man Moses

00:59:46.020 Was very meek

00:59:47.000 Above all the men

00:59:48.120 Which were upon

00:59:48.720 The face of the earth

00:59:49.560 You know what says that

00:59:50.360 Numbers 12-3

00:59:51.140 Moses

00:59:52.060 Was very meek

00:59:53.620 Above all the men

00:59:54.640 Which were upon

00:59:55.200 The face of the earth

00:59:56.040 He was the meekest man

00:59:58.700 On planet earth

00:59:59.740 And some people

01:00:01.200 Would say yeah

01:00:01.780 But he wrote numbers

01:00:02.840 Isn't that funny?

01:00:04.340 He's like I'm the best

01:00:05.380 Isn't that kind of funny?

01:00:07.320 I mean he's being inspired

01:00:08.740 By the spirit of God

01:00:09.880 To write that

01:00:10.560 But it's just a funny

01:00:11.340 Statement anyway

01:00:12.020 Alright so to look

01:00:13.440 At the meekness of Moses

01:00:14.720 This is a passage

01:00:15.920 That like made me cry

01:00:16.820 The first time I like

01:00:17.760 Really like read it

01:00:19.100 Is crying meekness?

01:00:20.860 I don't know

01:00:21.360 But I'm just saying

01:00:22.260 That this passage

01:00:24.280 Is so yeah

01:00:24.820 You're laughing now

01:00:25.520 Wait till you

01:00:25.920 Wait till you hear

01:00:26.460 This passage dude

01:00:27.340 Okay we're just gonna

01:00:28.680 Read all of Exodus 32

01:00:30.140 And then I don't know

01:00:32.640 Maybe we'll wrap up

01:00:33.500 After this

01:00:33.920 Because this is gonna be

01:00:34.580 This ongoing

01:00:35.440 Like long thing

01:00:36.640 So we'll yeah

01:00:40.540 Let's go with this

01:00:41.400 Alright

01:00:41.880 And when the people

01:00:42.840 Saw that Moses

01:00:43.620 Delayed to come down

01:00:44.680 Out of the mount

01:00:45.300 The people gathered

01:00:46.360 Themselves together

01:00:47.120 Unto Aaron

01:00:47.640 This is just a great

01:00:48.480 Story to know anyway

01:00:49.740 If anybody doesn't

01:00:50.200 Know this story

01:00:50.680 The people gathered

01:00:51.860 Themselves together

01:00:52.560 Unto Aaron

01:00:53.080 And said unto him

01:00:53.800 Up make us

01:00:54.620 Lowercase g gods

01:00:55.840 Which shall go before us

01:00:57.180 Because as for this dude

01:00:58.560 Moses

01:00:58.940 The man that brought us

01:01:00.200 Up out of the land

01:01:00.940 Of Egypt

01:01:01.420 We don't know

01:01:02.240 What's become of him

01:01:03.060 Now we read this

01:01:04.580 And we're like

01:01:05.000 Oh those trashy

01:01:06.900 Church people

01:01:08.240 They should have

01:01:08.860 Known better

01:01:09.500 They were part of

01:01:10.220 The covenant people

01:01:11.200 How did they

01:01:12.320 Like turn away from God

01:01:13.600 The dude's been gone

01:01:14.600 40 days

01:01:15.420 Yeah

01:01:16.120 The dude's been gone

01:01:16.880 40 days bro

01:01:18.100 So I get it

01:01:19.180 If like after the first week

01:01:20.460 They're like hey

01:01:20.980 Aaron is

01:01:21.640 What's up with Moses man

01:01:23.740 Is he coming back

01:01:24.480 The second week

01:01:25.740 Like hey bro

01:01:26.580 So Moses

01:01:27.100 He's doing

01:01:27.680 You know he's doing the thing

01:01:28.520 Like we're out here

01:01:28.960 In the wilderness

01:01:29.440 Like we just came out of Egypt

01:01:30.540 And we're just like

01:01:31.300 In the middle of nowhere

01:01:32.140 Like he's coming back

01:01:33.420 Right

01:01:33.660 Three weeks

01:01:34.700 Four weeks

01:01:36.160 Five weeks

01:01:37.300 40 days is like

01:01:38.360 Six weeks bro

01:01:39.220 You go this many weeks

01:01:40.900 Into it

01:01:41.260 They're like hey

01:01:41.840 Okay he's not coming back

01:01:43.440 They don't know

01:01:44.240 What's going on

01:01:45.040 He ran out of food up there

01:01:46.340 They don't have the scriptures

01:01:47.260 They don't have Facebook

01:01:48.480 They don't have

01:01:49.360 It's even like crazy

01:01:50.500 When you think about

01:01:51.060 Like the weather

01:01:51.700 Like we were 85 yesterday

01:01:53.520 Right

01:01:53.900 If you didn't have

01:01:55.280 Like the news today

01:01:56.280 And like weather forecasting

01:01:57.560 You'd have no clue

01:01:58.440 That this morning

01:01:59.100 We were under freezing

01:02:00.040 You'd have no clue

01:02:01.460 Like that's where

01:02:03.020 These guys were at

01:02:03.920 The dude's been gone

01:02:04.920 40 days

01:02:05.560 They're like

01:02:06.280 He's not coming back

01:02:07.320 And we need gods Aaron

01:02:09.260 So make us some gods

01:02:11.260 Make us some lowercase g gods

01:02:13.020 And Aaron said

01:02:14.240 And then break off

01:02:14.980 The golden earrings

01:02:15.940 Which are in the ears

01:02:16.820 Of your wives

01:02:17.520 Oh I hate this part

01:02:20.500 I hate

01:02:20.920 You don't know

01:02:21.480 Where they got the earrings

01:02:22.320 No

01:02:24.140 God made all the Egyptians

01:02:25.640 Give them all their gold

01:02:26.740 When they left Egypt

01:02:27.640 Oh yeah

01:02:28.200 So it's like this blessing

01:02:29.300 From God

01:02:30.040 It's like this

01:02:31.180 It really makes you think

01:02:32.580 Like okay dude

01:02:33.440 Like the things

01:02:34.100 I'm getting from God

01:02:35.180 Like what am I doing with them

01:02:36.860 I don't want to be some guy

01:02:37.920 Who gets this like

01:02:38.640 Major blessing from God

01:02:40.100 And then I use it

01:02:40.880 To go make a

01:02:41.540 Like I don't want to use

01:02:42.660 My gold to go make

01:02:43.540 Some false calf

01:02:44.480 Some false God

01:02:45.340 To just totally disrespect God

01:02:47.380 And I think people

01:02:48.160 Have to think about that dude

01:02:49.320 Like these blessings

01:02:50.180 That God has given you

01:02:51.420 And put in your life

01:02:52.200 Like what are you doing with it

01:02:53.500 You don't want to stand

01:02:54.260 Before God

01:02:54.880 And be like

01:02:55.220 Hey those gold earrings

01:02:56.380 That you gave me

01:02:56.960 Yeah I turned it into a golden calf

01:02:58.320 To worship it

01:02:59.060 But that's what they did

01:03:00.320 Aaron said

01:03:02.420 And then break off

01:03:03.100 The golden earrings

01:03:03.860 Which are in the ears

01:03:04.680 Of your wives

01:03:05.280 Of your sons

01:03:05.840 And of your daughters

01:03:06.540 And bring them unto me

01:03:07.440 And all the people

01:03:10.620 Broke off the golden earrings

01:03:11.900 Which were in their ears

01:03:12.760 And brought them unto Aaron

01:03:13.720 And he received them

01:03:14.680 At their hand

01:03:15.280 And fashioned it

01:03:16.100 With a graving tool

01:03:17.100 After he had made it

01:03:18.860 A molten calf

01:03:19.840 And they said

01:03:24.780 These be thy gods

01:03:25.960 O Israel

01:03:26.480 Which brought thee up

01:03:27.740 Out of the land of Egypt

01:03:29.420 And when Aaron saw it

01:03:31.140 When Aaron saw it

01:03:36.260 He built an altar before it

01:03:37.640 And Aaron made proclamation

01:03:39.080 And said

01:03:39.720 Tomorrow is a feast

01:03:41.040 Of the Lord

01:03:41.600 So I don't know

01:03:43.620 This is like mixed worship

01:03:44.700 Now for him

01:03:45.400 They say

01:03:45.980 They said

01:03:46.760 These be thy gods

01:03:47.720 These lowercase g gods

01:03:49.040 In verse 4

01:03:50.100 And then in verse 5

01:03:50.740 He says

01:03:50.940 Tomorrow is a feast

01:03:51.620 To the Lord

01:03:52.180 So I

01:03:52.580 Like they're still

01:03:53.800 Kind of

01:03:54.200 Like Aaron at least

01:03:55.180 Is still kind of like

01:03:56.260 Sounds like Catholicism

01:03:59.000 It just gets a little wild

01:04:00.620 It gets a little wild

01:04:01.400 What's going on here

01:04:02.200 And they rose up

01:04:03.520 Early on the morrow

01:04:04.400 And offered burnt offerings

01:04:05.780 And brought peace offerings

01:04:06.980 Remember this is intriguing

01:04:08.000 This is all before the law

01:04:09.120 A lot of people

01:04:10.560 Don't ever like

01:04:11.040 Think about these passages

01:04:12.140 Something's going on

01:04:13.260 On planet earth

01:04:13.920 Before the law

01:04:14.720 Like it's not just

01:04:15.700 The Levitical priesthood

01:04:16.780 That brings forth

01:04:17.600 The burnt offerings

01:04:19.440 And peace offerings

01:04:20.460 Like there was a beginning

01:04:21.400 To that

01:04:21.740 They haven't even started

01:04:22.460 That yet

01:04:22.920 Moses hasn't even

01:04:23.880 Come back down

01:04:24.480 From the mount yet

01:04:25.160 But they knew enough

01:04:26.520 To know they're going

01:04:27.060 To be making

01:04:27.800 These offerings

01:04:28.540 Right

01:04:28.920 And the people sat down

01:04:30.940 To eat and drink

01:04:31.660 And rose up to play

01:04:32.580 That's a little

01:04:34.820 Sketchesaurus Rex

01:04:35.720 Which we're going to find out

01:04:36.640 In a little bit

01:04:37.620 Rose up to play

01:04:39.020 And the Lord said

01:04:40.560 Unto Moses

01:04:41.000 Go get thee down

01:04:42.140 For thy people

01:04:43.120 Which thou brought

01:04:43.940 Out of the land

01:04:44.560 Of Egypt

01:04:44.920 Have corrupted

01:04:45.520 Themselves

01:04:46.040 I like when God

01:04:46.660 Says this

01:04:47.200 You know

01:04:48.480 Because Moses

01:04:48.960 Will say to God

01:04:49.600 These are your people

01:04:50.380 Here's God saying

01:04:51.100 To Moses

01:04:51.460 These are your people

01:04:52.360 This is so wild bro

01:04:53.980 The story is like

01:04:55.280 Why

01:04:55.780 If like Moses

01:04:57.160 Is like the greatest

01:04:57.960 Type of Christ

01:04:58.900 In the Old Testament

01:04:59.640 We have all these

01:05:00.380 Types of Christ

01:05:01.280 We have all these

01:05:02.360 Foreshadowing

01:05:03.140 Of like

01:05:03.400 How can a man

01:05:04.100 Do that

01:05:04.760 Unless he has

01:05:05.880 Christ in him

01:05:06.640 Right

01:05:06.980 And like

01:05:08.260 That's what

01:05:08.600 This story

01:05:09.220 Looks like

01:05:09.820 God

01:05:12.240 God tells Moses

01:05:13.040 Get you down

01:05:13.700 For your people

01:05:14.940 Which you brought

01:05:15.800 Out of the land

01:05:17.400 Of Egypt

01:05:17.700 Have corrupted

01:05:18.260 Themselves

01:05:18.760 They turned aside

01:05:19.520 Quickly out of the way

01:05:20.420 Which I commanded them

01:05:21.500 They've made them

01:05:22.480 A molten calf

01:05:23.280 And have worshipped it

01:05:24.140 And have sacrificed

01:05:25.040 Thereunto

01:05:25.480 And said

01:05:25.860 These be thy

01:05:26.460 Lowercase g

01:05:27.120 Gods

01:05:27.500 O Israel

01:05:27.980 Which have brought

01:05:29.100 Thee up

01:05:29.460 Out of the land

01:05:29.960 Of Egypt

01:05:30.380 So Moses

01:05:31.420 Is in like

01:05:32.080 I would argue

01:05:32.940 He's been in heaven

01:05:33.620 For this 40 days

01:05:34.600 Or dare I say

01:05:35.740 The spirit realm

01:05:36.420 But like

01:05:37.300 He comes down

01:05:38.580 And this is what

01:05:39.220 He walks into

01:05:39.980 Like this is what

01:05:41.140 He walks into

01:05:41.720 Because God tells him

01:05:42.680 Set up the tabernacle

01:05:44.080 According to the pattern

01:05:45.340 That I showed you

01:05:46.100 In the mount

01:05:46.560 He says that

01:05:47.760 Later on

01:05:48.500 In the

01:05:48.940 I think it's Exodus

01:05:49.780 Or somewhere

01:05:50.200 And then it's referenced

01:05:50.840 In the Hebrew letter too

01:05:52.440 I don't think

01:05:54.580 That's because

01:05:54.920 God was just up there

01:05:56.080 With a table

01:05:57.280 And like rolled out

01:05:58.100 A blueprint

01:05:58.520 I think it's because

01:05:59.640 He saw the pattern

01:06:00.800 In the mount

01:06:01.280 Like he saw

01:06:01.900 The heavenly pattern

01:06:02.940 Right

01:06:03.400 He saw the spirit realm

01:06:04.500 Pattern

01:06:04.920 He says okay

01:06:05.300 Make that down there

01:06:06.720 Like that's what

01:06:07.300 He's saying

01:06:07.740 So no matter what

01:06:08.880 He's with God

01:06:09.520 For 40 days

01:06:10.200 Regardless

01:06:10.640 This is what

01:06:11.640 He comes down to

01:06:12.460 Is the people

01:06:12.980 Have just completely

01:06:13.680 Forsaken God

01:06:14.640 And they've made

01:06:15.520 False gods

01:06:16.320 Lowercase g

01:06:17.340 Gods out of the gold

01:06:18.220 They've turned aside

01:06:21.280 Quickly out of the way

01:06:22.060 Which I commanded them

01:06:22.940 They've made them

01:06:23.500 A molten calf

01:06:24.180 And have worshipped it

01:06:25.000 And have sacrificed

01:06:25.740 Thereunto

01:06:26.200 And said

01:06:26.780 These be thy gods

01:06:27.740 O Israel

01:06:28.160 Which have brought thee

01:06:28.920 Up out of the land

01:06:29.540 Of Egypt

01:06:29.940 And the Lord said

01:06:31.020 Unto Moses

01:06:31.480 I've seen this people

01:06:32.540 And behold

01:06:32.980 It's a stiff neck people

01:06:34.140 Now therefore

01:06:35.180 Let me alone

01:06:35.920 That my wrath

01:06:36.660 May wax hot

01:06:37.480 Against them

01:06:38.120 And that I may

01:06:39.160 Consume them

01:06:39.980 And I will make

01:06:40.960 Of thee a great nation

01:06:42.240 Do you ever read

01:06:43.480 This passage

01:06:44.000 This is crazy

01:06:45.380 God is pissed

01:06:46.880 He says

01:06:47.580 His anger

01:06:48.140 Is waxed hot

01:06:49.160 Now therefore

01:06:51.060 Leave me alone

01:06:51.960 Moses

01:06:52.400 This is a stiff neck

01:06:54.240 People

01:06:54.540 Leave me alone

01:06:55.380 That my wrath

01:06:56.540 May wax hot

01:06:57.600 Against them

01:06:59.520 And I'll

01:07:00.120 And I

01:07:00.800 That I may

01:07:01.620 Consume them

01:07:02.580 But don't worry

01:07:03.560 I'll make a great nation

01:07:05.280 Out of you

01:07:06.020 Moses

01:07:06.560 Bro

01:07:07.860 Matt

01:07:08.660 Look at this

01:07:09.600 Like reference this

01:07:10.600 Against Satan

01:07:11.320 Satan would do anything

01:07:13.620 To have like a people

01:07:14.940 Brought from his lineage

01:07:16.840 Right

01:07:17.360 Would do anything

01:07:18.400 To be worshipped as God

01:07:19.820 You see what I'm saying

01:07:21.220 Like

01:07:21.400 Isn't it almost like

01:07:22.320 You have the 40 days

01:07:23.840 That Jesus is fasting

01:07:25.440 And then he has

01:07:26.380 That confrontation

01:07:26.960 With Satan

01:07:27.800 And Satan offers him

01:07:29.480 The kingdoms of the world

01:07:30.480 It's almost like

01:07:31.720 God is offering him

01:07:33.220 This

01:07:33.560 Right to him

01:07:34.540 Man

01:07:35.220 What a crazy inversion

01:07:36.360 Right

01:07:36.620 No that's a great insight

01:07:38.000 By you

01:07:38.500 That's what I'm saying

01:07:39.120 I love the way

01:07:39.800 You guys analyze stuff

01:07:40.880 Even though you're crazy people

01:07:42.020 Like that's a great

01:07:42.900 Analyzation of that

01:07:43.860 It's like

01:07:44.140 Almost God

01:07:45.300 Tempted Moses

01:07:47.360 With the same temptation

01:07:48.680 That Satan

01:07:49.520 Tempted Jesus with

01:07:50.720 Maybe that's the same temptation

01:07:51.820 That David had as well

01:07:53.260 Right

01:07:53.760 He's like

01:07:54.440 You gonna kill him

01:07:55.060 Right

01:07:55.400 And the question is

01:07:56.900 Like which kingdom

01:07:57.740 Do you belong to

01:07:58.660 Do you belong to the kingdom

01:08:00.300 Which is blessed are the meek

01:08:01.740 Or do you belong to the other kingdom

01:08:03.360 Which can justify

01:08:04.200 Killing Saul

01:08:05.480 Which can justify

01:08:06.340 You picking the land

01:08:07.820 Which can justify

01:08:08.660 Saying

01:08:09.140 Yeah God

01:08:09.980 I kind of had enough

01:08:10.820 Of these dudes too

01:08:11.620 Like smoke their ass

01:08:12.560 Like let's start over

01:08:13.440 Let's start over

01:08:14.060 Because I'm kind of

01:08:14.620 Over this too

01:08:15.180 God

01:08:15.400 I can see you're over it

01:08:16.400 I'm over it too

01:08:17.220 Let's just dust him

01:08:18.340 And start over

01:08:18.920 No

01:08:20.160 Not Moses dude

01:08:21.200 He's the meekest man

01:08:22.220 In all the land

01:08:22.780 That's why this is

01:08:23.360 This great story

01:08:24.200 Of meekness bro

01:08:25.120 And Moses besought

01:08:27.000 The Lord as God

01:08:27.760 And said

01:08:28.020 Lord why does your wrath

01:08:29.220 Wax hot against your people

01:08:30.740 Now he

01:08:31.980 Now he calls them

01:08:32.880 Your people

01:08:33.520 God tells Moses

01:08:34.460 He calls them

01:08:35.040 Your people

01:08:35.540 And then Moses

01:08:36.300 Says back to God

01:08:37.000 No they're your people

01:08:37.940 This is a dude

01:08:39.160 Who's close to God

01:08:40.220 Like think about

01:08:41.220 How close this dude

01:08:42.200 Is to God

01:08:42.760 To have this conversation

01:08:43.640 These are tests

01:08:44.880 Clearly these are tests

01:08:45.900 Because you're not

01:08:46.580 Going to remind God

01:08:47.820 That these are his people

01:08:49.880 He puts it on Moses

01:08:51.280 And it's Moses job

01:08:52.200 To put it back

01:08:53.280 Yeah yeah

01:08:53.720 That's I mean

01:08:54.280 That's why people

01:08:55.020 Would say

01:08:55.460 Just this whole realm

01:08:56.580 Like this whole like

01:08:57.640 The whole concept

01:08:58.980 Of like what's happening

01:09:00.040 In this realm

01:09:00.660 Is it is a testing realm

01:09:02.000 Like that

01:09:02.440 Like that's the whole context

01:09:03.480 Of why you live

01:09:04.240 In the natural temporary realm

01:09:05.740 For 120 years

01:09:06.820 Before you go into

01:09:08.160 An eternal realm

01:09:09.000 What's the point

01:09:09.980 If it's all already

01:09:11.360 Been determined

01:09:12.100 If it's all already set

01:09:13.580 Then why are we doing this

01:09:14.760 Why are we doing any of this

01:09:15.920 In the temporary realm

01:09:16.880 Unless it is a testing ground

01:09:18.520 I don't know

01:09:19.680 That just seems very logical

01:09:20.840 To me

01:09:21.160 From like a 30,000 foot view

01:09:22.520 Just kind of looking

01:09:23.180 At the picture as a whole

01:09:25.460 Is like yeah

01:09:26.460 And all

01:09:27.020 Everything going on

01:09:28.400 In our life

01:09:28.980 Is a testing

01:09:29.780 Everything in it

01:09:31.000 Is like what path

01:09:31.900 Are we going to go on

01:09:32.740 And thank God

01:09:33.620 For the sermon on the mount

01:09:34.540 That gives us the culture

01:09:35.420 Of our kingdom

01:09:35.940 Because it's something

01:09:36.560 For us to reference back to

01:09:37.920 It's something for us

01:09:38.940 To look back to

01:09:39.620 And say yeah man

01:09:40.900 Am I exhibiting

01:09:41.920 The culture of the kingdom of God

01:09:43.900 Or have I gone

01:09:44.900 A little off track

01:09:45.760 Let me get close to the Lord

01:09:47.200 To start to cultivate

01:09:48.160 These things inside of me

01:09:49.480 Instead of just trying

01:09:50.240 To act it out

01:09:51.120 That's where people

01:09:51.880 Run into problems

01:09:52.500 They just want to act it out

01:09:53.560 What's the Christian thing

01:09:54.660 To do right now

01:09:55.300 Well I don't know

01:09:55.860 But you better already

01:09:56.720 Have it in you now

01:09:57.680 Because you can't just

01:09:58.660 Come up with it

01:09:59.120 At the last minute

01:09:59.800 To say what's the Christian thing

01:10:01.020 It's going to be

01:10:01.720 Whatever you do right now

01:10:02.800 If you are the Christian

01:10:03.760 Wherefore should the Egyptians

01:10:07.700 Speak and say

01:10:08.640 This is another thing

01:10:09.620 That dudes who love God

01:10:10.580 They're always watching out

01:10:11.620 For his character

01:10:12.260 And they're saying

01:10:12.580 What will your enemies say then

01:10:13.920 Wherefore should the Egyptians

01:10:15.660 Speak and say

01:10:16.500 For mischief

01:10:17.560 Did he bring them out

01:10:18.420 To slay them in the mountains

01:10:19.620 And to consume them

01:10:20.580 From the face of the earth

01:10:21.820 Dude this is a crazy statement

01:10:24.660 From a man to God

01:10:25.900 Turn from your fierce wrath

01:10:27.620 And repent of this evil

01:10:28.780 Against your people

01:10:29.660 That's what Moses says

01:10:30.820 To God

01:10:31.720 Can you imagine

01:10:33.240 To be that close to God

01:10:34.580 To have that conversation

01:10:35.800 Remember Abraham

01:10:37.980 Isaac and Jacob

01:10:39.320 Remember Abraham

01:10:40.360 Isaac and Israel

01:10:41.260 Your servants

01:10:42.040 To whom you swore

01:10:43.380 By your own self

01:10:44.360 And said unto them

01:10:45.020 I will multiply your seed

01:10:46.360 As the stars of heaven

01:10:47.380 And all this land

01:10:48.780 That I have spoken of

01:10:49.580 Will I give unto your seed

01:10:50.660 And they shall inherit it forever

01:10:52.660 And the Lord repented

01:10:54.880 Of the evil

01:10:55.780 Which he thought

01:10:56.880 To do unto his people

01:10:58.080 A man interceded

01:10:59.720 On behalf of those people

01:11:01.260 And God changed his mind

01:11:03.480 If you will

01:11:03.960 I know a lot of people

01:11:04.600 Are going to be super offended

01:11:05.740 At that

01:11:06.160 But that's what the text

01:11:07.120 Is clearly saying

01:11:08.100 The text is clearly saying

01:11:10.460 God was going to smoke

01:11:11.840 Those people

01:11:12.540 And you could say

01:11:13.260 Yeah but in the foreknowledge

01:11:14.600 Of God

01:11:14.980 He knew Moses

01:11:15.700 Was going to plead with him

01:11:16.540 And he knew he wasn't

01:11:17.140 Going to do it

01:11:17.500 That's fine

01:11:17.920 That's fine

01:11:18.380 But in Moses' life

01:11:20.060 Moses still had

01:11:21.380 That kind of authority

01:11:22.460 Still had that kind of power

01:11:23.860 In that conversation with him

01:11:25.160 And this story

01:11:26.880 Could have gone another way

01:11:28.380 Like that's the thing

01:11:30.020 For me man

01:11:30.580 Is like all these stories

01:11:31.840 Could have gone another way

01:11:33.200 Right

01:11:33.960 Like I remember

01:11:34.680 Working for dudes

01:11:35.520 That are like

01:11:36.040 I remember doing a job

01:11:38.560 In downtown Sumter Landing

01:11:40.080 One time

01:11:40.520 Where the owner

01:11:41.120 Of the flooring company

01:11:41.860 I was working for

01:11:42.580 Was like super

01:11:44.100 Nervous and stressed

01:11:46.300 About getting this job done

01:11:47.520 Because he had to have it

01:11:48.260 Done by Monday

01:11:48.960 And it was like

01:11:49.680 Packed with furniture

01:11:51.020 It was a bank

01:11:51.880 It was the bank

01:11:52.720 And it was their

01:11:54.320 Upstairs bank

01:11:55.120 It wasn't like

01:11:55.640 Where you come in and out

01:11:56.560 But it was where

01:11:57.360 Like the office space

01:11:58.260 For the banks

01:11:58.740 It was like huge desks

01:12:00.420 Huge heavy file cabinets

01:12:01.540 So you got the tables

01:12:02.340 Packed with stuff

01:12:03.920 No comment

01:12:04.660 And this place

01:12:06.320 Is just packed bro

01:12:07.440 So that

01:12:10.160 All this furniture

01:12:10.900 Needs moved

01:12:11.500 There's a ton of floor prep

01:12:13.020 There's a ton of floor prep

01:12:14.240 Needs done

01:12:14.680 And he's freaking out

01:12:15.500 Because he's saying

01:12:16.060 With that much like

01:12:17.020 Ardex

01:12:17.660 And that much self leveler

01:12:18.840 Like it's going to need

01:12:19.820 10-15 hours

01:12:21.220 Just to dry out

01:12:22.080 Let alone

01:12:22.640 However much time

01:12:23.260 It takes you

01:12:23.640 To do the floor prep

01:12:24.620 Like they're only giving us

01:12:26.160 From Friday to Monday

01:12:27.040 And I told him

01:12:27.640 We could do it

01:12:28.120 And he's like

01:12:28.520 Freaking out

01:12:29.200 Right

01:12:29.460 I said well dude

01:12:30.420 It's no problem

01:12:31.120 It's no problem

01:12:31.920 I'll get in there

01:13:24.480 We get the paycheck

01:13:26.740 And the money is much less

01:13:29.520 Than what we discussed

01:13:31.040 Right

01:13:31.460 And I'm like

01:13:32.460 Damn

01:13:33.680 Like bro

01:13:34.360 What happened

01:13:35.480 Like we had

01:13:35.980 We had a very clear discussion

01:13:37.220 Oh no I'm not

01:13:38.120 I'm not paying you that much

01:13:39.240 For I mean

01:13:40.200 That was one weekend

01:13:41.300 What kind of hat was he wearing

01:13:42.540 You

01:13:43.000 Stop

01:13:43.520 You can't

01:13:44.360 No

01:13:44.680 Nobody should be making

01:13:46.160 That kind of money

01:13:46.860 Just for a weekend of work

01:13:48.020 They said dude what

01:13:49.680 We had like this very

01:13:50.620 There wasn't just a weekend of work

01:13:52.220 That was really like

01:13:53.460 I don't know

01:13:54.560 Between Friday night

01:13:55.540 All day Saturday

01:13:56.340 And all day Sunday

01:13:57.080 That's a

01:13:57.520 That's a full week of work

01:13:58.820 If you add up all the hours

01:14:00.740 Bringing the guys in

01:14:02.440 After hours

01:14:03.120 Working late hours

01:14:04.340 Not to mention

01:14:05.240 I mean I couldn't tell him

01:14:06.140 I had to get everybody

01:14:06.740 Jacked up

01:14:07.200 On Oxycontins

01:14:07.940 And Red Bull

01:14:08.440 Just to like

01:14:08.940 Get everything done

01:14:10.000 But his whole thing

01:14:11.240 Was like

01:14:11.660 Oh no I'm not

01:14:12.720 Paying anybody for that

01:14:13.760 Do you know how much

01:14:14.440 Drugs cost these days

01:14:15.480 Yeah that was

01:14:16.120 That was so easy

01:14:17.060 You did that one weekend

01:14:18.280 Do you see what I'm saying

01:14:19.320 Before it got done

01:14:20.620 He's like

01:14:20.960 Oh how are we gonna do it

01:14:22.140 He's freaking out right

01:14:23.200 Once it's done

01:14:24.160 He's like

01:14:24.400 Oh yeah nothing to it

01:14:25.540 And I think some people

01:14:26.280 Read the bible like that

01:14:27.280 They're like

01:14:27.500 Oh yeah these stories

01:14:28.420 That's just

01:14:28.840 Yeah it had to go that way

01:14:29.960 Like no

01:14:30.460 These stories could have

01:14:31.340 Went different

01:14:31.880 Does that make sense

01:14:33.080 Yeah

01:14:33.420 I don't know

01:14:34.380 That experience

01:14:35.300 Like shaped so much

01:14:36.680 Of my thinking

01:14:37.300 Like as I'm reading scripture

01:14:38.480 I'm always looking at this

01:14:39.580 And saying

01:14:39.920 I don't know

01:14:40.700 There's people who just think

01:14:41.900 Like if a thing went

01:14:43.080 They go

01:14:43.680 Could Paul have

01:14:44.940 Declined the call of God

01:14:47.040 Like yeah

01:14:48.160 Of course he could have

01:14:49.280 Like look at Judas

01:14:50.320 Look at Solomon

01:14:51.160 Like no no no

01:14:52.460 He couldn't have

01:14:53.020 I'm like yeah

01:14:53.500 You're just like the guy

01:14:54.700 Who like saw the job

01:14:56.920 Get done

01:14:57.540 And then was like

01:14:58.080 Oh yeah nothing to it

01:14:59.120 Of course the job got done

01:15:00.240 No no

01:15:01.980 This story could have

01:15:02.900 Went a totally different way

01:15:04.020 Dude

01:15:04.300 This story with Moses

01:15:05.440 Could have gone a totally

01:15:06.220 Different way

01:15:06.760 Do you see what I'm saying

01:15:08.100 Yeah

01:15:08.960 If God's going to get

01:15:10.480 Something done

01:15:10.960 It's going to get done

01:15:11.740 With or without

01:15:12.720 Different

01:15:13.560 Different dudes

01:15:14.220 Yes

01:15:14.400 So yeah

01:15:15.700 And so like the reward system

01:15:17.480 I think

01:15:18.060 Like even in the book

01:15:18.800 Of Revelation

01:15:19.340 It says like

01:15:20.080 Let no man

01:15:20.960 Steal your crown

01:15:22.000 It doesn't say

01:15:22.500 Don't let Satan

01:15:23.480 Steal your crown

01:15:24.100 That's your reward

01:15:26.760 It says let no man

01:15:27.560 Steal your crown

01:15:28.280 Yeah I think that's a reward

01:15:30.040 I think the reward system

01:15:31.300 Might be a lot more vast

01:15:32.660 Than we comprehend

01:15:33.520 But that's part of it

01:15:34.860 Is a crown

01:15:35.780 A type of crown

01:15:36.540 Which is multiple types

01:15:37.440 Of crowns mentioned

01:15:38.180 But it's like

01:15:39.040 To your point

01:15:40.300 This stuff's going to get done

01:15:41.880 There was a song

01:15:42.700 My boss used to play

01:15:43.760 With or without you

01:15:45.000 I think it's you too

01:15:45.840 Yeah

01:15:46.320 Because he would

01:15:46.840 Because I'd be like

01:15:47.500 Hey man I need time off

01:15:48.520 He's like oh really

01:15:49.200 Then I'm going to fire you

01:15:50.060 Because listen

01:15:50.620 This is going to get done

01:15:51.500 With or without you

01:15:52.260 He'd like play this song

01:15:53.100 But I think

01:15:54.640 There's an element of that

01:15:55.900 Where God's saying

01:15:56.560 Yeah my will is going to happen

01:15:58.220 Whether I use you

01:15:59.340 To do it or not

01:16:00.180 That's still up in the air

01:16:01.480 So don't let some man

01:16:03.420 Steal your crown

01:16:04.080 If I call you

01:16:04.860 To a specific destiny

01:16:05.880 And you're too busy

01:16:07.260 With Facebook

01:16:07.920 And TV shows

01:16:08.980 And whatever else

01:16:09.680 You're doing

01:16:10.200 You might still end up

01:16:12.180 In heaven if you're safe

01:16:13.020 But you're going to watch

01:16:13.720 That dude

01:16:14.320 Who fulfilled the destiny

01:16:15.660 I called you to

01:16:16.500 Walk around with your reward

01:16:17.800 For all of eternity

01:16:18.660 Don't let any man do that

01:16:20.280 Have I ever told you

01:16:21.140 About like

01:16:21.620 When I was in the old church

01:16:23.460 There was an older sister

01:16:25.320 Anna La Piccolo

01:16:26.240 Her name is

01:16:26.860 And she had a heavy Italian accent

01:16:29.460 And she prophesied over me

01:16:31.320 You didn't tell me this

01:16:32.900 You tell me nothing though

01:16:33.800 Which is fair

01:16:34.260 I'll tell you nothing

01:16:34.480 And that's the way it should be

01:16:35.440 But I'll tell you now

01:16:36.120 Because we're on the show

01:16:36.840 Let's go

01:16:37.300 So she prophesied over me

01:16:39.360 And I have one foot

01:16:40.160 Out of the church already

01:16:40.880 I've been kicked out

01:16:41.680 By the pastor

01:16:42.320 But I'm still attending

01:16:43.360 Because I'm stupid

01:16:44.080 And she goes

01:16:46.620 Brother Daniel

01:16:47.660 You are going to talk

01:16:49.200 To millions of people

01:16:50.580 One day about Jesus Christ

01:16:52.240 And I want to look at her

01:16:53.700 And go

01:16:54.040 You know like

01:16:55.480 And I go

01:16:56.300 Thanks sister

01:16:56.940 And then I leave

01:16:58.400 Where was she from

01:16:59.400 With that accent

01:17:00.040 She was from Italy

01:17:01.280 Old school Italy

01:17:02.340 I like that

01:17:03.200 But I like

01:17:04.560 At the time

01:17:05.000 I wanted to be like

01:17:05.700 Shut up

01:17:06.500 You know like

01:17:06.920 And I

01:17:08.300 But I didn't

01:17:09.100 I walked away

01:17:09.940 And what I said to myself

01:17:11.020 Was absolutely not

01:17:12.540 Whatever you say

01:17:13.640 I'm doing the opposite now

01:17:14.860 Don't put that on me

01:17:15.780 And I was telling this

01:17:16.880 To Tony Merkel

01:17:17.880 Not too long ago

01:17:19.020 When he

01:17:19.220 Because he was asking

01:17:19.760 He was like

01:17:19.980 How do you

01:17:20.340 Where do you start

01:17:21.760 How do you get

01:17:22.140 On a path like this

01:17:22.740 So I told him that story

01:17:23.720 And I was like

01:17:24.800 You know

01:17:25.000 Lo and behold

01:17:25.840 Here we are

01:17:26.960 Doing this thing

01:17:28.480 And yet

01:17:29.420 We've talked to

01:17:30.320 More than a million people

01:17:31.600 And it's kind of

01:17:32.980 Prophesied right

01:17:33.800 Bro prophecy is real

01:17:35.080 Yeah

01:17:35.480 That's why false prophecy

01:17:36.520 Sucks

01:17:37.260 Yeah

01:17:37.660 Because it makes

01:17:38.160 So many people

01:17:38.880 Look at it

01:17:39.640 And go

01:17:40.040 That's a scam

01:17:41.200 But Tony told me

01:17:42.200 Correctly

01:17:42.860 He said

01:17:44.080 I'm glad that

01:17:45.500 That happened for you

01:17:46.440 But

01:17:47.140 That was going to happen

01:17:48.920 With you

01:17:49.940 Or without you

01:17:50.860 Yeah

01:17:51.320 So it was like

01:17:52.140 It was my choice there

01:17:53.200 To leave it

01:17:53.800 But I guess

01:17:54.220 God had enough grace

01:17:55.440 With me

01:17:55.800 To leave it

01:17:56.720 For the 10 years

01:17:57.920 Where I

01:17:58.620 I told him to shove it

01:17:59.880 And that was still

01:18:01.400 Saved for me

01:18:02.080 But

01:18:02.360 God could have taken

01:18:03.220 He's like

01:18:03.540 God could have

01:18:04.180 God could have given

01:18:04.580 That to anybody

01:18:05.160 If he wanted that

01:18:06.400 To happen

01:18:06.840 Wait the dude

01:18:07.720 Merkel knows the Lord

01:18:08.680 Like is he

01:18:09.140 Yeah yeah yeah

01:18:10.080 Really

01:18:10.640 Yeah

01:18:11.560 I mean I don't know

01:18:12.520 A lot about him

01:18:13.100 But he's like a dude

01:18:13.740 That's a Bible reader

01:18:14.600 He's an actual

01:18:15.620 Like an actual Christian

01:18:17.100 Nuh uh

01:18:17.860 Yeah

01:18:18.480 I thought his shows

01:18:19.720 Were just like

01:18:20.340 The supernatural

01:18:21.180 And like crazy stuff

01:18:22.480 And

01:18:22.940 Yeah the supernatural

01:18:23.840 But it's

01:18:24.440 It's through a Christian lens

01:18:25.820 Uh

01:18:26.400 Yeah

01:18:27.040 It's what formed a lot

01:18:28.260 Of how me and David think

01:18:29.560 And obviously we're still

01:18:30.720 We're much crazier

01:18:31.640 But like

01:18:32.120 His show was really

01:18:33.000 Aimed that way

01:18:33.520 But that was

01:18:34.280 That was actually

01:18:35.260 It was like a punch

01:18:36.180 In the face

01:18:36.600 When he said that to me

01:18:37.220 I was like

01:18:37.440 When he was saying like

01:18:38.840 Dude if you didn't do it

01:18:39.660 Somebody would have did it

01:18:40.560 Yeah basically like

01:18:42.120 You're lucky

01:18:42.720 Because you

01:18:43.240 You let that sit

01:18:44.120 On the table

01:18:44.620 For that long

01:18:45.580 And he was like

01:18:46.040 That was gonna happen

01:18:47.100 Whether you wanted it

01:18:48.540 Or not

01:18:48.960 Someone would have

01:18:49.860 Someone else

01:18:50.380 Would have taken that

01:18:51.040 Uh huh

01:18:51.480 And I was like

01:18:52.040 Huh

01:18:52.280 And I sat there

01:18:53.140 For a second

01:18:53.600 Yeah

01:18:53.880 I think that's what

01:18:55.020 That passage in Revelation

01:18:56.260 Is alluding to

01:18:57.020 Let no man

01:18:57.800 Take your crown

01:18:58.540 Yeah

01:18:59.180 That's true

01:18:59.900 Like the purposes of God

01:19:00.980 They are going to happen

01:19:02.300 They are going to happen

01:19:03.780 Exactly what our part is

01:19:06.600 In the play

01:19:07.080 In the story

01:19:07.700 He leaves us

01:19:09.240 Freedom there

01:19:10.000 Right

01:19:10.360 We can't do anything

01:19:11.380 Outside of his grace

01:19:12.340 We can't do anything

01:19:13.340 Outside of his grace

01:19:14.600 And mercy

01:19:15.100 But is

01:19:15.860 But really like

01:19:16.820 The one thing

01:19:17.360 We can't bring to him

01:19:18.180 Is our will

01:19:18.840 To do it

01:19:19.400 And he even encourages that

01:19:21.260 He even is involved

01:19:22.200 In our will

01:19:22.780 So it's like

01:19:23.460 It is a

01:19:24.180 It is a wild game

01:19:25.160 It is a wild game

01:19:26.200 But this is the culture

01:19:27.420 Of our kingdom

01:19:27.920 And that's why

01:19:28.340 We submit to him

01:19:29.120 That's our only chance

01:19:31.880 Let's get on with this dude

01:19:34.260 Moses

01:19:34.700 Here's a question though

01:19:36.640 Go ahead

01:19:37.040 If I don't submit

01:19:38.140 And I do continue

01:19:40.740 On this path

01:19:41.520 I remain

01:19:43.540 The weak person

01:19:44.500 That I was

01:19:45.300 Attending a church

01:19:46.600 Following rules

01:19:47.740 So I almost had to go

01:19:48.980 Through that

01:19:49.360 Like you had to go

01:19:50.020 Through this drug phase

01:19:50.920 Right

01:19:51.180 Yeah

01:19:51.540 Yeah

01:19:52.160 So it's like

01:19:52.760 But thank God

01:19:53.960 That that was

01:19:54.340 I guess

01:19:54.640 Saved

01:19:55.540 Or held on to

01:19:56.460 For me

01:19:57.260 It was prophesied

01:19:59.000 But it was

01:19:59.640 It was held on

01:20:00.520 For me

01:20:01.380 If that makes any sense

01:20:02.320 Yeah

01:20:02.480 And you have to go

01:20:03.300 Through these hardships

01:20:04.020 That shape who you are

01:20:05.800 Like you don't

01:20:07.120 Yeah

01:20:07.340 I don't know

01:20:07.840 If a dude just has

01:20:08.620 Like this really simple

01:20:09.600 Easy path

01:20:10.380 That would be sketch

01:20:11.360 I don't even think

01:20:12.000 That exists dude

01:20:12.920 I don't even think

01:20:13.900 That like

01:20:14.500 I don't think

01:20:16.660 That there's like

01:20:17.080 Some dude

01:20:17.520 Who's like

01:20:17.920 Doing wonderful things

01:20:19.060 For God

01:20:19.420 And there was

01:20:19.760 No sketchiness

01:20:20.520 In it

01:20:20.800 There's no way

01:20:21.500 Like it's like

01:20:22.040 There's passages

01:20:22.660 I mean I don't even think

01:20:23.700 We're about to read one

01:20:24.440 Blessed are you

01:20:25.980 When men persecute you

01:20:27.400 For righteousness sake

01:20:28.900 Like it's

01:20:30.060 You gotta go through

01:20:31.240 The hardships

01:20:31.700 You gotta go through

01:20:33.560 The things

01:20:34.020 So that you can understand

01:20:35.220 Like other people

01:20:37.480 Yeah but when you

01:20:39.460 I guess

01:20:39.980 Again this is the thing

01:20:41.240 That you have to decide

01:20:42.120 When are you

01:20:43.100 Giving up your blessing

01:20:44.300 And when are you

01:20:45.580 Just kinda like

01:20:46.300 When are you supposed

01:20:47.380 To put that to this

01:20:48.140 It's very hard

01:20:49.520 Well I think that's why

01:20:50.560 You have to live in this

01:20:51.240 Constant connection to God

01:20:52.420 Right

01:20:52.640 You have to be in this

01:20:53.260 Constant connection to him

01:20:54.160 And say Lord

01:20:54.660 I wanna do whatever

01:20:55.640 You wanna do

01:20:56.240 And I think you have to mean it

01:20:57.760 You know

01:20:58.340 Cause there's no point

01:20:59.000 In having that conversation

01:20:59.880 With God and not meaning it

01:21:00.980 Cause he's like

01:21:01.380 Bro you're just being a hypocrite

01:21:02.580 Like you're just saying

01:21:03.180 Words right now

01:21:03.900 And I think some of that

01:21:05.300 Takes experience

01:21:06.260 Of realizing like

01:21:07.760 Okay I'm butchering

01:21:09.020 Every situation

01:21:10.320 Like I'm having a pattern

01:21:12.600 Of butchering every situation

01:21:14.900 Right

01:21:15.620 Like that's the crazy thing

01:21:16.640 About this

01:21:17.060 And me and Jess

01:21:17.560 Talk about it sometimes

01:21:18.360 Is like

01:21:18.780 There's a difference

01:21:20.480 Between living under the blessing

01:21:21.720 And living under the curse

01:21:22.400 And if you never lived

01:21:23.600 Under the curse

01:21:24.160 You don't know

01:21:24.800 Like you don't know

01:21:25.800 How like incredible

01:21:27.000 And lovely

01:21:27.560 And wonderful it is

01:21:28.760 To live under this blessing

01:21:30.300 That's being stated here

01:21:31.360 Unless at one time

01:21:32.500 You lived under the curse

01:21:33.560 And like living under the curse

01:21:35.180 Is this scenario

01:21:36.140 Where everything

01:21:36.960 That can go wrong

01:21:38.020 Goes wrong

01:21:39.060 Like when you look back

01:21:41.060 You're like

01:21:41.320 How did it even go that

01:21:42.860 Like how could it get that bad

01:21:44.400 Like how could this situation

01:21:46.140 Have got that mangled

01:21:47.480 And then on the flip side

01:21:49.140 You live under the blessing

01:21:50.020 And you start to reflect

01:21:51.020 On your life

01:21:51.600 Over the last couple years

01:21:52.460 And you're like

01:21:52.900 Wait wait

01:21:54.240 How did all of that

01:21:55.380 Fall into place

01:21:56.100 Like how did all of that

01:21:57.240 Go so good

01:21:57.960 How did like

01:21:59.460 Wow

01:22:00.200 If that

01:22:00.760 That and that

01:22:01.760 Didn't fall together

01:22:02.620 We would have been

01:22:03.160 Screwed right now

01:22:04.200 But that

01:22:05.360 That and that

01:22:06.620 Fell together

01:22:07.200 And we're thriving

01:22:07.980 Like this is wild

01:22:09.420 The whole thing's wild

01:22:10.500 But it's just like

01:22:11.720 Submission to God man

01:22:12.920 It's just submission to God

01:22:14.020 Which I'm not saying

01:22:14.640 It's going to be like

01:22:15.140 Happy time

01:22:15.900 Play time

01:22:16.420 I'm not saying

01:22:16.860 You're going to

01:22:17.160 Not suffer persecution

01:22:18.320 I'm saying

01:22:18.900 You are going to

01:22:19.420 Go through hardships

01:22:19.980 But you're blessed

01:22:20.720 You're happy either way

01:22:21.660 You're good either way

01:22:22.420 You're well off

01:22:23.260 As that word would

01:22:23.920 Say in the Greek

01:22:24.820 Alright let's keep

01:22:26.120 Rolling with Moses

01:22:26.880 Because I know how you get

01:22:28.420 What verse were we in

01:22:30.140 And the Lord repented

01:22:31.300 Of the evil

01:22:31.860 Which he thought

01:22:32.480 To do unto us

01:22:33.080 He repented in Genesis

01:22:34.480 That's wow

01:22:35.340 6 as well

01:22:36.100 6-6

01:22:36.940 Yeah

01:22:38.120 Well it doesn't say

01:22:38.940 He repented

01:22:39.500 It says he was grieved

01:22:40.400 At his heart

01:22:41.100 Doesn't say he repented

01:22:42.380 Maybe it did

01:22:43.080 Yeah he repented

01:22:44.420 But that's what that means

01:22:45.500 Oh repented himself

01:22:47.040 Yeah that he made man

01:22:48.600 On the earth

01:22:49.300 Right

01:22:49.720 Yeah

01:22:50.120 Is that what you're saying

01:22:50.800 So this is the second time

01:22:52.240 As far as I'm aware

01:22:53.000 It repented the Lord

01:22:54.260 That he had made man

01:22:55.180 On the earth

01:22:55.840 And it grieved him

01:22:56.520 At his heart

01:22:57.080 Oh yeah

01:22:58.480 That was a passage

01:22:59.220 That shook me too

01:23:00.220 Because I was like

01:23:00.800 Wait there's a thing

01:23:01.640 You can do

01:23:02.080 To grieve God

01:23:02.980 At his heart

01:23:03.540 This is

01:23:04.160 I think this goes

01:23:04.780 To an Ed Mabry point

01:23:05.740 About knowing the

01:23:06.600 Character of God

01:23:07.740 And character of God

01:23:08.740 As being just

01:23:09.760 Always just

01:23:10.960 Moses uses that

01:23:12.260 Against him

01:23:12.760 And I guess when

01:23:13.720 This wasn't a just thing

01:23:15.000 That God was about to do

01:23:16.140 So he used it against him

01:23:18.080 So God had to

01:23:19.760 Repent for it

01:23:20.680 Because that's not

01:23:21.180 His character

01:23:21.580 I don't think that

01:23:22.300 No

01:23:22.760 No

01:23:23.220 No I think God

01:23:23.920 Would have been

01:23:24.260 Totally just

01:23:24.980 To dust them

01:23:25.700 He didn't owe them

01:23:26.420 Anything

01:23:26.760 So then why apologize

01:23:28.120 Or why

01:23:28.900 Feel bad for what

01:23:30.560 You were

01:23:30.900 I don't think

01:23:31.580 That's not

01:23:32.000 I don't think

01:23:32.300 That's what that

01:23:32.800 Repented means

01:23:33.540 It just means

01:23:34.080 He changed

01:23:35.240 He turned

01:23:35.880 Like I know

01:23:36.480 In the Greek

01:23:36.960 I'm not sure

01:23:37.420 What that Hebrew word is

01:23:38.300 But that Greek word

01:23:39.060 Metanaeo

01:23:39.820 Is like a turning

01:23:41.460 It symbolizes

01:23:42.360 It's saying a turning

01:23:43.960 Which is an internal first

01:23:45.400 But then it does

01:23:46.800 Turn into an external

01:23:48.280 Turning as well

01:23:49.240 So I think

01:23:50.660 It's just saying

01:23:51.360 That he turned

01:23:52.120 From he was going to do that

01:23:53.180 Now he's not

01:23:53.880 Okay

01:23:54.420 I don't think

01:23:55.040 There's anything in that

01:23:56.080 That's like

01:23:56.680 God was like

01:23:57.420 Okay Moses

01:23:57.960 You're right

01:23:58.400 I'm wrong

01:23:58.860 I don't think

01:23:59.900 That that's possible

01:24:00.780 I think he's just like

01:24:02.500 You know what

01:24:03.000 I'll give you that Moses

01:24:04.120 You've earned that with me

01:24:05.540 That's a wild thing dude

01:24:06.920 You've earned that with me

01:24:07.980 You got enough dollars

01:24:09.600 In the bank account

01:24:10.260 To cover that check

01:24:11.140 I'll honor that check

01:24:12.540 Naham

01:24:13.320 Is the word here

01:24:14.440 In Hebrew

01:24:15.620 And it means

01:24:16.880 To be sorry

01:24:17.580 To console oneself

01:24:18.680 To be moved to pity

01:24:20.720 To have compassion

01:24:21.720 I could see that

01:24:23.060 Yeah

01:24:23.240 To be moved to pity

01:24:24.120 Suffer grief

01:24:25.240 Yeah

01:24:25.600 I mean there's a lot

01:24:26.260 Of meanings for it

01:24:26.940 Yeah

01:24:27.180 So you just gotta unpack it

01:24:28.660 And we just gotta know

01:24:29.140 That God isn't like

01:24:30.240 God's not like

01:24:30.920 Well I was wrong

01:24:31.700 But you're right

01:24:32.280 I'll correct it

01:24:32.940 He's not doing that

01:24:34.300 It's a testing too man

01:24:36.880 He's testing Moses bro

01:24:38.300 Is this the dude

01:24:38.960 That's really gonna

01:24:39.560 Lead my nation

01:24:40.600 And deliver the law

01:24:41.620 To this nation

01:24:42.360 That I'm giving to them

01:24:43.300 Can I trust him

01:24:44.500 What's his heart like

01:24:45.520 What's his character like

01:24:47.200 There's like

01:24:49.580 Modern stuff like this

01:24:50.600 You know this dude

01:24:51.200 Captain America

01:24:52.000 When they're trying

01:24:53.560 I think it's like

01:24:54.160 The first Captain America

01:24:55.360 They're trying to find

01:24:56.180 Like which guy

01:24:56.760 Is it

01:24:57.060 Doing pop culture references

01:24:57.860 And they're doing like

01:24:58.600 Buff

01:24:59.020 The buff guys

01:25:00.020 And stuff

01:25:00.580 And then there's

01:25:01.480 This little squirmy guy

01:25:02.820 And then they throw

01:25:03.800 The grenade

01:25:04.180 And he jumps on the grenade

01:25:05.500 You see what I'm saying

01:25:06.620 They're like yeah

01:25:07.120 That's

01:25:07.460 Yeah

01:25:08.100 That's the guy

01:25:08.760 We're looking for

01:25:09.360 I think there's some of that

01:25:10.360 Which that obviously

01:25:11.860 They steal that

01:25:12.720 From the Bible

01:25:13.340 The Bible doesn't steal

01:25:14.640 That from Captain America

01:25:15.820 Captain America

01:25:16.440 Gets that concept

01:25:17.160 From dudes like Moses

01:25:18.160 Right

01:25:18.640 Like these are selfless people

01:25:20.120 Willing to die

01:25:21.300 For the good of others

01:25:22.300 Like yeah

01:25:22.820 That's the one

01:25:23.380 We're looking for

01:25:24.020 Then Moses turned

01:25:25.820 And went down

01:25:26.300 From the mount

01:25:26.780 And the two tables

01:25:27.500 Of the testimony

01:25:28.100 Were in his hand

01:25:28.740 The tables were written

01:25:29.480 On both of their sides

01:25:30.620 On the one side

01:25:31.840 And on the other

01:25:32.680 Were they written

01:25:33.280 This is crazy man

01:25:35.580 And the tables

01:25:36.320 Were the work of God

01:25:37.440 And the writing

01:25:38.060 Was the writing of God

01:25:39.280 Graven upon the tables

01:25:40.720 So God

01:25:42.160 Like there's the

01:25:42.780 There's the ten

01:25:43.280 God's writing it

01:25:44.840 With his own finger

01:25:45.660 Which is wild

01:25:46.600 When you think about

01:25:47.260 When they bring the woman

01:25:48.200 Caught in the act of adultery

01:25:49.700 To Jesus

01:25:50.220 And he's like

01:25:51.520 Writing in the sand

01:25:52.440 He's just ignoring them

01:25:53.760 He's just writing

01:25:54.480 In the dust of the earth

01:25:55.460 I don't know

01:25:56.800 It's an interesting

01:25:57.460 Thought

01:25:57.980 We're not getting into that

01:25:58.760 And when Joshua

01:25:59.760 Heard the noise

01:26:00.560 Of the people

01:26:01.080 As they shouted

01:26:01.880 So they're like

01:26:02.780 Having a party down there

01:26:03.960 They're having a party

01:26:04.860 Down there

01:26:05.180 I think as we unpack this

01:26:06.340 Not to jump ahead

01:26:07.240 But in verse 25

01:26:08.360 It says they were naked

01:26:09.200 This was just a wild ass orgy

01:26:10.800 Is what this had turned into

01:26:11.900 Like Sodom and Gomorrah

01:26:13.140 Yeah they're just like

01:26:13.900 Going wild dude

01:26:14.800 They're

01:26:15.120 I think maybe this has to do

01:26:16.700 With the worship of lowercase g gods

01:26:18.300 As they get you into sexual sin

01:26:19.760 And like stuff's going crazy

01:26:21.380 So that's the noises

01:26:22.960 Like this wild party down there

01:26:24.460 Right

01:26:24.720 But this dude Joshua

01:26:25.900 He's built for war

01:26:26.900 He's made for war

01:26:27.920 Like God made all his parts

01:26:29.800 Specifically for war

01:26:31.320 Like the way he made his brain

01:26:32.600 And the way he made his ears

01:26:33.740 The way he made his eyeballs

01:26:34.860 And everything in his heart

01:26:35.820 This dude is just designed for war

01:26:37.900 Like you look at his life

01:26:39.000 This dude's made for war

01:26:40.160 So when Joshua heard the noise

01:26:42.020 Of the people

01:26:42.480 As they shouted

01:26:43.060 He said to Moses

01:26:43.880 There's the noise of war

01:26:45.300 In the camp

01:26:45.800 He's just always got war

01:26:47.360 On his mind

01:26:47.960 And he said

01:26:50.160 No no

01:26:50.680 It's not the voice of them

01:26:51.780 That shout for mastery

01:26:52.800 Neither is it the voice of them

01:26:54.680 That cry for being overcome

01:26:55.920 But the noise of them

01:26:57.440 That sing

01:26:58.340 Do I hear

01:26:59.460 Dare I say

01:27:01.140 In the words of Top Lobster

01:27:02.380 Them that worship

01:27:03.700 And it came to pass

01:27:06.700 As soon as he came nigh

01:27:07.740 Into the camp

01:27:08.280 That he saw the calf

01:27:09.320 And the dancing

01:27:10.060 And Moses' anger waxed hot

01:27:11.920 Right

01:27:12.380 Verse 10

01:27:13.060 God was hot

01:27:13.940 Right

01:27:14.220 God was angry

01:27:15.140 Now Moses

01:27:16.300 Here we are in verse 19

01:27:17.400 Now Moses is angry

01:27:18.620 This is why they say

01:27:19.800 Like the more time

01:27:20.660 You spend with God

01:27:21.520 The more you'll act like him

01:27:23.120 The more you'll be like him

01:27:24.420 People don't like this

01:27:25.980 Because it involves

01:27:26.640 The word anger

01:27:27.380 But that's the reality

01:27:28.620 The closer you get to God

01:27:29.960 The more you're like him

01:27:30.940 The more the more

01:27:31.740 The things that anger him

01:27:32.900 Anger you

01:27:33.400 The more the things

01:27:34.040 That make him happy

01:27:34.740 Make you happy

01:27:35.520 Like all the things

01:27:36.740 You become like his character

01:27:38.060 The more you spend time with him

01:27:39.380 And it came to pass

01:27:40.700 As soon as he came nigh

01:27:41.480 Into the camp

01:27:41.880 He saw the calf

01:27:42.640 And the dancing

01:27:43.260 And Moses' anger waxed hot

01:27:45.100 And he cast the tables

01:27:45.940 Out of his hand

01:27:46.540 And broke them beneath the mount

01:27:47.700 And he took the calf

01:27:48.900 Which they had made

01:27:49.560 And burnt it in the fire

01:27:50.580 And ground it to powder

01:27:51.500 And strawed it upon the water

01:27:52.800 And made the children of Israel

01:27:54.060 Drink of it

01:27:54.740 So he's a gangster

01:27:56.040 See what he did there

01:27:57.860 Drink that

01:27:58.380 And Moses said unto Aaron

01:27:59.720 What did this people do unto you

01:28:01.600 That you have brought

01:28:03.000 So great a sin upon them

01:28:04.680 Not just you Aaron

01:28:06.160 But you brought this great sin upon them

01:28:07.980 I thought you were a leader

01:28:08.900 We can preach on that another time

01:28:13.000 And Aaron said

01:28:14.080 Let not the anger of my lord wax hot

01:28:15.860 You know the people

01:28:16.700 That they are set on mischief

01:28:18.100 For they said unto me

01:28:20.660 Make us gods

01:28:21.360 Which shall go before us

01:28:22.400 For as for this Moses

01:28:23.300 The man that brought us up

01:28:24.420 Out of the land of Egypt

01:28:25.280 We don't know what's happened to him

01:28:27.120 He's gone 40 days

01:28:29.120 And we don't know

01:28:29.760 Like when he's coming back

01:28:30.800 Or if he's coming back

01:28:31.680 And I said unto them

01:28:32.860 Whosoever has any gold

01:28:34.280 That God gave them

01:28:36.100 From everybody in Egypt

01:28:37.700 Let them break it off

01:28:39.280 So they gave it me

01:28:40.540 Then I threw in the fire

01:28:41.940 And there just came out this calf

01:28:43.520 Wasn't that wild?

01:28:46.200 And when Moses saw

01:28:47.560 That the people were naked

01:28:48.820 So Moses has this

01:28:50.320 He first goes to Aaron

01:28:51.520 And says dude

01:28:52.000 What just happened?

01:28:53.420 Moses

01:28:53.700 Oh Aaron says

01:28:54.780 Yeah man

01:28:55.120 Earrings

01:28:55.940 I threw in the fire

01:28:56.800 And then out came this calf

01:28:58.220 And then Moses is like

01:28:59.740 Like right in the middle of him

01:29:00.800 Being like

01:29:01.280 Bro what the

01:29:02.060 What?

01:29:03.300 Then he looks

01:29:03.980 And then all the people were naked

01:29:05.440 When Moses saw

01:29:07.420 The people were naked

01:29:08.220 For Aaron had made them naked

01:29:09.480 Under their shame

01:29:10.200 Among their enemies

01:29:11.120 So it's not just this golden calf

01:29:14.420 Now there's some kind of

01:29:15.120 Sexual perversion going on

01:29:16.640 Then Moses stood in the gate

01:29:18.120 Of the camp

01:29:18.580 And said

01:29:18.900 Who's on the Lord's side?

01:29:20.040 Let him come unto me

01:29:20.800 And all the sons of Levi

01:29:22.400 Gathered themselves together unto him

01:29:24.120 And I think this is why

01:29:24.980 The tribe of Levi

01:29:25.760 Becomes the priestly tribe

01:29:28.780 Is because of this story right here

01:29:30.420 We'd have

01:29:30.800 I don't have that in front of me

01:29:32.380 But I think that's why

01:29:33.180 I think I remember that being why

01:29:34.280 And he said unto them

01:29:35.560 Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel

01:29:37.000 Put every man his sword by his side

01:29:38.840 And go in and out

01:29:39.700 From gate to gate

01:29:40.440 Throughout the camp

01:29:41.160 And slay every man his brother

01:29:42.920 And every man his companion

01:29:44.240 And every man his neighbor

01:29:45.680 And the children of Levi

01:29:47.420 Did according to the word of Moses

01:29:49.520 And there fell of the people that day

01:29:51.440 About 3,000 men

01:29:52.720 That doesn't make any allusion

01:29:54.180 To women here

01:29:54.920 So I don't know

01:29:55.760 Maybe that's just what it was

01:29:57.340 It was like dudes with dudes

01:29:58.480 It says brother

01:29:59.760 Companion

01:30:00.540 Neighbor

01:30:01.020 And then it says 3,000 men

01:30:02.640 In verse 28

01:30:03.380 I don't know

01:30:04.020 Doesn't this also rhyme a little bit

01:30:05.480 With the Garden of Eden?

01:30:06.300 Like he comes down

01:30:07.440 He kind of asks a question

01:30:09.300 He asks a question to

01:30:10.780 What did he ask?

01:30:12.900 He was talking to Aaron

01:30:14.000 And Aaron goes

01:30:15.160 Oh but your people

01:30:15.840 It's you know

01:30:16.520 These people

01:30:17.080 Your people did this

01:30:18.540 Right?

01:30:18.780 Right, right, right

01:30:19.180 You're saying how like

01:30:20.020 Adam was like

01:30:20.680 Oh the woman that you gave me

01:30:21.840 Yeah

01:30:22.100 But then the people are naked as well

01:30:24.240 And they're hiding their shame

01:30:25.300 Yeah, yes

01:30:26.360 It's kind of crazy

01:30:26.940 It rhymes

01:30:27.740 It rhymes too much

01:30:28.960 It does

01:30:29.000 Then the children of Levi

01:30:34.820 Did according to the word of Moses

01:30:36.220 And there fell all the people that day

01:30:37.420 About 3,000 men

01:30:38.480 For Moses had said

01:30:39.560 Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord

01:30:41.380 Even every man upon his son

01:30:44.620 And upon his brother

01:30:45.500 That he may bestow upon you

01:30:46.860 A blessing this day

01:30:47.980 For those who were killing the evil

01:30:49.900 In the camp

01:30:50.460 Saying this is going to spread

01:30:51.920 We have to get rid of this

01:30:53.000 This can't be in the camp

01:30:54.120 And it came to pass on the morrow

01:30:57.100 That Moses said unto the people

01:30:58.360 You have sinned a great sin

01:30:59.840 So the dust is settled now

01:31:01.340 It's the next day

01:31:03.340 You've sinned a great sin

01:31:05.600 And now I will go up unto the Lord

01:31:07.320 Peradventure I shall make an atonement

01:31:09.260 For your sin

01:31:09.980 This is why Moses is this incredible type

01:31:12.340 Of Jesus, dude

01:31:13.240 He says, alright dude

01:31:14.740 You guys have done bad

01:31:15.800 I'm going to go up there

01:31:16.680 And make an atonement for your sin

01:31:17.960 And Moses returned unto the Lord

01:31:20.380 And said, oh

01:31:21.240 These people have sinned a great sin

01:31:23.060 And have made them lowercase g

01:31:24.980 Gods of gold

01:31:25.900 This is the most crazy passage

01:31:28.720 In all of scripture

01:31:29.440 Possibly

01:31:30.320 One of the most craziest passages

01:31:32.140 You'll ever read in your life

01:31:33.160 Yet now

01:31:34.520 If you will forgive their sin

01:31:36.360 And if not

01:31:37.900 Blot me, I pray you

01:31:39.580 Out of the book which you've written

01:31:41.280 What?

01:31:45.360 These people who have shit all over Moses

01:31:47.700 This entire time

01:31:49.060 In Egypt

01:31:50.780 Out of Egypt

01:31:51.720 This entire time

01:31:52.860 Through the wilderness

01:31:53.480 He pleads with God

01:31:55.220 On their behalf

01:31:56.360 And says

01:31:56.860 If you don't save them

01:31:59.120 Take me out of the book of life

01:32:00.940 Nobody thinks that's crazy

01:32:04.440 The craziest thing ever been said

01:32:06.140 Let me become the curse

01:32:07.880 On their behalf

01:32:08.820 We know what that is

01:32:10.100 That's a type of Jesus

01:32:11.240 It's exactly what Jesus did

01:32:13.300 He became the curse

01:32:14.880 Yeah

01:32:15.760 He didn't just pay the penalty

01:32:17.720 For the curse

01:32:18.320 He became the curse

01:32:19.840 And you want to talk about

01:32:20.980 Spiritual darkness

01:32:22.080 Or like a heavy spirit

01:32:23.420 Dude

01:32:24.580 My God

01:32:25.800 My God

01:32:26.180 Why have you forsaken me?

01:32:27.220 He's on the cross

01:32:28.040 And there's all this

01:32:29.180 Physical thing going on

01:32:30.620 To him on the cross

01:32:31.380 That we can relate to

01:32:32.640 But I don't think

01:32:33.200 We can relate to that

01:32:34.040 Spiritual feeling

01:32:35.020 That he felt on the cross

01:32:36.400 Man

01:32:36.660 That kind of darkness

01:32:37.700 I don't think we have

01:32:38.420 Any concept of that

01:32:39.600 But that's what this dude

01:32:41.280 Is saying

01:32:41.760 This dude Moses

01:32:42.740 This isn't God saying this

01:32:44.280 This is a dude Moses

01:32:45.620 Put that on me

01:32:46.740 Dude

01:32:48.660 I just remember reading this

01:32:49.840 And getting it one time

01:32:50.820 And it changed my life

01:32:52.020 Man

01:32:52.300 It changed my life

01:32:53.520 Because I think at that time

01:32:54.560 I thought that like

01:32:55.180 Yeah

01:32:55.320 The whole reason you're a Christian

01:32:56.460 Is to go to heaven

01:32:57.180 Like that's it

01:32:57.900 That's why you're a Christian

01:32:59.240 Like you want to do

01:33:00.500 Whatever you want on the earth

01:33:01.500 You just don't want to do

01:33:02.240 Something so bad

01:33:03.060 That you go to hell

01:33:03.740 You just want to go to heaven

01:33:04.740 I'm like

01:33:05.860 Wait

01:33:07.100 This dude is saying

01:33:08.380 If you will forgive their sin

01:33:10.440 But if you won't forgive their sin

01:33:11.920 Let's make a deal

01:33:13.080 Let's trade

01:33:13.680 Blot me out of the book

01:33:15.000 Which you've written

01:33:16.000 Blot me out of the book of life

01:33:17.320 I just was in shock to hear that

01:33:19.280 How bad is this

01:33:20.240 Was this sin

01:33:21.840 How bad was this

01:33:23.420 This

01:33:23.620 Whatever they were doing for 40 days

01:33:25.540 For him to come down

01:33:27.140 And have to kill these people

01:33:28.420 Dude

01:33:29.120 I think it's

01:33:29.940 I think it's nothing new man

01:33:31.660 They've made false gods

01:33:32.860 They're worshipping false gods

01:33:34.180 And then it's issuing out

01:33:35.840 In sexual perversion

01:33:37.080 And I think we see it

01:33:38.460 On a mass scale today

01:33:39.740 See it on a mass scale today

01:33:41.780 Is that

01:33:42.120 And it's one thing

01:33:43.280 If it's in the world

01:33:44.780 It's another thing

01:33:45.780 If it's in the church

01:33:46.680 So is that the solution

01:33:47.780 Do you know what I'm saying

01:33:49.020 Like how bad

01:33:49.860 No the solution is God

01:33:51.220 The solution is always God

01:33:52.540 And the solution is death to self

01:33:54.100 The solution is

01:33:55.100 Your old man must die

01:33:56.780 So in a certain sense

01:33:57.880 Yeah

01:33:58.240 In a certain sense

01:33:59.300 It is that

01:34:00.300 And so like

01:34:01.200 All the sexual perversion

01:34:02.600 All of the worshipping

01:34:03.660 Of false gods

01:34:04.440 There only is one solution

01:34:06.160 It's God

01:34:07.000 And therefore

01:34:07.880 For you

01:34:08.720 It's you must be born again

01:34:10.020 Execution of the old man

01:34:12.040 The old man must die

01:34:13.780 You must become a new creation

01:34:15.580 So yeah

01:34:18.600 It's always that

01:34:19.600 It's not

01:34:20.280 It's not

01:34:20.860 Reforming society

01:34:22.520 It's not even

01:34:23.260 Reforming the Christian

01:34:24.520 It's death

01:34:25.480 To the old self

01:34:26.460 You must be born again

01:34:28.760 And become new

01:34:29.500 And the Lord said unto Moses

01:34:31.920 Nah man

01:34:32.820 It doesn't work like that

01:34:33.840 Whosoever has sinned against me

01:34:35.660 Him will I blot out of my book

01:34:37.580 Therefore now go

01:34:39.240 Lead the people

01:34:40.080 Unto the place

01:34:40.820 Of which I have spoken unto thee

01:34:42.240 Behold my angel

01:34:43.600 Shall go before thee

01:34:44.740 Nevertheless

01:34:45.540 In the day when I visit

01:34:47.000 I will visit their sin upon them

01:34:49.020 And the Lord plagued the people

01:34:50.560 Because they made the calf

01:34:51.620 Which Aaron made

01:34:52.320 Because they made the calf

01:34:55.680 Which Aaron made

01:34:56.740 That's an interesting sentence

01:34:58.620 Huh

01:34:58.880 Yeah

01:35:00.400 They were all in on it man

01:35:01.780 I don't know

01:35:08.160 What do you do with that

01:35:09.120 Like what

01:35:09.480 Like what do you do with that

01:35:10.600 For Exodus 32-32

01:35:13.020 Everybody should have it

01:35:14.060 Underlined in their Bible

01:35:15.060 And everybody should just

01:35:16.460 Be aware that that passage exists

01:35:18.480 I just remember it changed my life

01:35:19.900 To know that that passage existed

01:35:21.420 He said man

01:35:23.580 I love these people so much

01:35:25.240 That have treated me so bad

01:35:26.860 Like I

01:35:27.800 That's why you have to read

01:35:29.320 All this stuff in context too man

01:35:30.840 If you haven't been reading

01:35:31.620 Up to this point

01:35:32.320 You don't know how bad

01:35:33.300 They've been to Moses

01:35:34.140 You don't know how much

01:35:35.340 He's gone through

01:35:36.000 With these people

01:35:36.740 That's why when you read it

01:35:38.560 All the way through

01:35:39.560 You get to that point

01:35:40.880 And you're wrecked by it

01:35:42.100 It doesn't mean so much

01:35:43.520 Just reading it with us

01:35:44.720 Right here

01:35:45.360 Just like

01:35:46.600 Hang in

01:35:47.520 You know what I mean

01:35:48.320 But when you read the whole thing

01:35:49.520 And you're like

01:35:49.960 Dang

01:35:50.400 They did all of that to Moses

01:35:52.200 And he still says this

01:35:53.720 This is crazy

01:35:54.880 And then you're like

01:35:55.740 I need to up my game

01:35:56.800 I need to up my game man

01:35:58.400 Like I'm still

01:35:59.220 I'm not meek enough

01:36:00.240 I'm not like

01:36:01.400 I'm not like somebody

01:36:03.020 Who's this close to God

01:36:04.300 I'm not somebody

01:36:05.020 Who loves people that much

01:36:06.460 Like

01:36:06.800 I need to

01:36:07.700 I need to bring my game up

01:36:08.900 Because these are our examples

01:36:10.260 People in the Bible

01:36:11.300 They're our examples

01:36:12.540 People at the local church

01:36:13.800 Is not our examples man

01:36:15.040 The word of God

01:36:15.840 Is our example

01:36:16.580 So I don't know

01:36:18.980 That's just kind of

01:36:19.880 Moses was a real onesie man

01:36:22.660 That's just kind of where

01:36:23.860 I think we should wrap it up there

01:36:25.360 Because otherwise

01:36:26.660 This is going to go hard

01:36:29.200 Man you've only covered

01:36:30.300 Two

01:36:31.000 Literally just two scriptures

01:36:32.500 No

01:36:33.580 In the Sermon of the Mount

01:36:34.340 Oh no

01:36:34.660 Two principles

01:36:35.640 Sure

01:36:35.980 No we're further than that

01:36:37.680 I don't think so

01:36:38.220 We've gotten to

01:36:38.980 Meekness

01:36:40.200 What?

01:36:41.640 Yeah that's it

01:36:42.300 No three

01:36:44.720 Three

01:36:45.120 We've done three

01:36:45.840 Okay

01:36:46.360 I mean I got some notes

01:36:47.860 On verse six and seven

01:36:49.320 I don't want to go too long

01:36:50.560 Dude

01:36:50.760 I just feel like

01:36:51.500 This is going to go

01:36:52.160 For a while anyway

01:36:53.000 So there's no point

01:36:54.520 In like

01:36:54.940 Don't rush it

01:36:56.020 Yeah

01:36:56.660 Yeah

01:36:57.580 I feel good about it man

01:36:58.980 Do you want to talk

01:36:59.600 About anything?

01:37:00.380 No I don't want to talk

01:37:00.960 With you

01:37:01.180 Are you sure?

01:37:05.060 Well keep them

01:37:05.740 Keep them on a cliffhanger

01:37:06.700 For next week

01:37:07.280 Yeah next week's

01:37:08.120 Going to be a good one

01:37:08.760 Don't miss

01:37:16.360 No I don't want to talk

01:37:17.460 I don't know

01:37:18.100 I don't know

01:37:18.920 I don't know

01:37:20.140 I don't know
