  I'm
• 0:03
  Stephanie
• 0:03
  Hickox,
• 0:04
  and
• 0:04
  we
• 0:04
  see
• 0:05
  a
• 0:05
  pattern
• 0:05
  in
• 0:05
  scripture
• 0:06
  that
• 0:06
  God
• 0:06
  has
• 0:07
  always
• 0:07
  desired
• 0:08
  to
• 0:08
  be
• 0:08
  our
• 0:08
  dwelling
• 0:08
  place,
• 0:09
  and
• 0:09
  we
• 0:09
  believe
• 0:10
  that
• 0:10
  when
• 0:10
  we
• 0:10
  understand
• 0:10
  that
• 0:11
  it
• 0:11
  transforms
• 0:12
  our
• 0:12
  dwellings
• 0:12
  with
• 0:12
  our
• 0:12
  families.

• 0:23
  In
• 0:23
  the
• 0:24
  last
• 0:24
  episode,
• 0:24
  we
• 0:24
  looked
• 0:25
  at
• 0:25
  the
• 0:25
  opening
• 0:25
  chapters
• 0:26
  of
• 0:26
  Job.
• 0:26
  And
• 0:26
  they
• 0:26
  concluded
• 0:27
  with
• 0:27
  Job
• 0:27
  saying
• 0:28
  he
• 0:28
  wished
• 0:28
  he
• 0:28
  had
• 0:29
  never
• 0:29
  been
• 0:29
  born.
• 0:30
  He
• 0:30
  was
• 0:30
  heart
• 0:30
  Wrenchingly
• 0:31
  honest.
• 0:31
  After
• 0:32
  he
• 0:32
  had
• 0:32
  lost
• 0:32
  all
• 0:33
  10
• 0:33
  of
• 0:33
  his
• 0:33
  children,
• 0:34
  all
• 0:34
  of
• 0:34
  his
• 0:34
  possessions
• 0:35
  and
• 0:36
  his
• 0:36
  flesh
• 0:36
  was
• 0:36
  being
• 0:37
  tormented
• 0:37
  with
• 0:37
  sores.
• 0:38
  At
• 0:38
  first,
• 0:39
  his
• 0:39
  friends
• 0:39
  were
• 0:39
  compassionate
• 0:40
  with
• 0:40
  him,
• 0:40
  but
• 0:40
  after
• 0:41
  a
• 0:41
  week
• 0:41
  of
• 0:41
  silence,
• 0:42
  Alfa
• 0:43
  somewhat
• 0:43
  gently
• 0:44
  said,
• 0:44
  we
• 0:45
  know
• 0:45
  that
• 0:45
  sin
• 0:45
  causes
• 0:46
  suffering.
• 0:47
  Surely
• 0:47
  there
• 0:48
  was
• 0:48
  something
• 0:48
  you
• 0:48
  did
• 0:49
  wrong
• 0:49
  to
• 0:49
  cause
• 0:49
  this
• 0:50
  today's
• 0:50
  section
• 0:51
  opens
• 0:51
  with
• 0:51
  job
• 0:51
  defending
• 0:52
  himself
• 0:52
  against
• 0:53
  that
• 0:53
  attack.
• 0:54
  In
• 0:54
  verse
• 0:54
  6
• 0:54
  22,
• 0:55
  he
• 0:55
  basically
• 0:56
  says,
• 0:56
  tell
• 0:57
  me
• 0:57
  exactly
• 0:57
  what
• 0:57
  I
• 0:58
  did
• 0:58
  wrong.
• 0:58
  If
• 0:58
  you're
• 0:58
  so
• 0:59
  sure
• 0:59
  that
• 0:59
  this
• 0:59
  is
• 0:59
  a
• 0:59
  result
• 1:00
  of
• 1:00
  sin.
• 1:01
  It's
• 1:01
  interesting
• 1:01
  to
• 1:02
  me
• 1:02
  that
• 1:02
  throughout
• 1:03
  this
• 1:03
  book,
• 1:03
  his
• 1:04
  friends
• 1:04
  are
• 1:04
  so
• 1:05
  set
• 1:05
  on
• 1:05
  accusing
• 1:06
  him
• 1:06
  of
• 1:06
  sin,
• 1:07
  but
• 1:07
  they're
• 1:07
  quite
• 1:07
  general.
• 1:08
  At
• 1:08
  first
• 1:09
  they
• 1:09
  don't
• 1:09
  know
• 1:09
  what
• 1:10
  kind
• 1:10
  of
• 1:10
  sin
• 1:10
  it
• 1:10
  could
• 1:10
  be.
• 1:11
  And
• 1:11
  that
• 1:11
  reminds
• 1:12
  me
• 1:12
  of
• 1:12
  some
• 1:12
  incredibly
• 1:13
  useful
• 1:13
  advice
• 1:14
  I
• 1:14
  was
• 1:14
  given
• 1:14
  once
• 1:15
  and
• 1:15
  I
• 1:15
  think
• 1:15
  it's
• 1:15
  particularly
• 1:16
  helpful
• 1:16
  for
• 1:16
  motherhood.
• 1:17
  It's
• 1:17
  that
• 1:18
  when
• 1:18
  we
• 1:18
  hear
• 1:19
  the
• 1:19
  enemy's
• 1:19
  voice
• 1:20
  accusing
• 1:20
  us,
• 1:21
  it
• 1:21
  will
• 1:21
  be
• 1:21
  general
• 1:22
  and
• 1:22
  condemning.
• 1:23
  But
• 1:23
  when
• 1:23
  the
• 1:23
  Holy
• 1:23
  Spirit
• 1:24
  is
• 1:24
  working
• 1:24
  in
• 1:24
  our
• 1:24
  hearts,
• 1:25
  it's
• 1:25
  much
• 1:25
  more
• 1:26
  specific.
• 1:26
  Let
• 1:27
  me
• 1:27
  give
• 1:27
  you
• 1:27
  an
• 1:27
  example.
• 1:28
  The
• 1:28
  enemy
• 1:29
  might
• 1:29
  make
• 1:29
  you
• 1:29
  feel
• 1:29
  guilty
• 1:30
  and
• 1:30
  discouraged
• 1:31
  and
• 1:31
  feel
• 1:31
  that
• 1:31
  you're
• 1:32
  a
• 1:32
  terrible
• 1:32
  mother
• 1:33
  and
• 1:33
  you
• 1:33
  can't
• 1:34
  exactly
• 1:34
  put
• 1:34
  your
• 1:34
  finger
• 1:35
  on
• 1:35
  what
• 1:35
  you've
• 1:35
  done
• 1:35
  wrong.
• 1:36
  It
• 1:36
  just
• 1:36
  feels
• 1:37
  like
• 1:37
  you
• 1:38
  are
• 1:38
  missing
• 1:38
  the
• 1:38
  boat
• 1:39
  with
• 1:39
  everything.
• 1:40
  But
• 1:40
  the
• 1:40
  Holy
• 1:40
  Spirit
• 1:41
  might
• 1:41
  gently
• 1:41
  press
• 1:42
  upon
• 1:42
  your
• 1:42
  heart
• 1:42
  you
• 1:43
  need
• 1:43
  to
• 1:43
  put
• 1:43
  your
• 1:43
  phone
• 1:44
  down
• 1:44
  more
• 1:44
  and
• 1:44
  look
• 1:45
  your
• 1:45
  children
• 1:45
  in
• 1:45
  the
• 1:45
  eyes.
• 1:46
  The
• 1:46
  season
• 1:47
  isn't
• 1:47
  going
• 1:47
  to
• 1:47
  last
• 1:47
  forever,
• 1:48
  and
• 1:48
  you
• 1:48
  need
• 1:49
  to
• 1:49
  choose
• 1:49
  what's
• 1:49
  most
• 1:49
  important.
• 1:50
  When
• 1:50
  you're
• 1:50
  feeling
• 1:51
  discouraged
• 1:52
  or
• 1:52
  convicted,
• 1:52
  ask
• 1:53
  yourself,
• 1:53
  do
• 1:53
  I
• 1:54
  feel
• 1:54
  the
• 1:54
  Lord
• 1:54
  calling
• 1:55
  me
• 1:55
  to
• 1:55
  make
• 1:55
  a
• 1:55
  specific
• 1:56
  change
• 1:56
  here?
• 1:57
  And
• 1:57
  if
• 1:57
  you're
• 1:57
  just
• 1:57
  feeling
• 1:58
  overwhelmed
• 1:58
  that
• 1:58
  you
• 1:58
  feel
• 1:59
  in
• 1:59
  everything,
• 2:00
  pray
• 2:00
  to
• 2:00
  the
• 2:00
  Lord
• 2:00
  to
• 2:00
  give
• 2:01
  you
• 2:01
  clarity.
• 2:02
  And
• 2:02
  honestly,
• 2:02
  it
• 2:03
  might
• 2:03
  just
• 2:03
  be
• 2:03
  hormones
• 2:04
  or
• 2:04
  lack
• 2:04
  of
• 2:04
  sleep,
• 2:05
  or
• 2:05
  the
• 2:05
  enemy,
• 2:06
  and
• 2:06
  you
• 2:06
  just
• 2:06
  need
• 2:07
  to
• 2:07
  give
• 2:07
  it
• 2:07
  a
• 2:07
  little
• 2:07
  time.
• 2:08
  Romans
• 2:08
  eight
• 2:08
  tells
• 2:09
  us
• 2:09
  there
• 2:09
  is
• 2:10
  therefore
• 2:10
  now
• 2:10
  no
• 2:11
  condemnation
• 2:12
  for
• 2:12
  those
• 2:12
  who
• 2:12
  are
• 2:12
  in
• 2:13
  Christ
• 2:13
  Jesus.
• 2:14
  You
• 2:14
  can
• 2:14
  kick
• 2:14
  those
• 2:15
  condemning
• 2:15
  thoughts
• 2:15
  to
• 2:16
  the
• 2:16
  curb
• 2:16
  throughout
• 2:17
  the
• 2:17
  Bible.
• 2:17
  We're
• 2:18
  told
• 2:18
  to
• 2:18
  meditate
• 2:19
  on
• 2:19
  scripture
• 2:19
  to
• 2:20
  take
• 2:20
  its
• 2:20
  words
• 2:20
  and
• 2:21
  embrace
• 2:21
  them,
• 2:21
  but
• 2:22
  I
• 2:22
  have
• 2:22
  to
• 2:22
  confess
• 2:23
  sometimes
• 2:23
  when
• 2:24
  I
• 2:24
  come
• 2:24
  to
• 2:24
  a
• 2:24
  book
• 2:24
  like
• 2:24
  Job,
• 2:25
  I
• 2:25
  get
• 2:25
  kind
• 2:26
  of
• 2:26
  confused.
• 2:27
  Are
• 2:27
  these
• 2:27
  words
• 2:27
  I
• 2:28
  embrace
• 2:28
  or
• 2:28
  not?
• 2:29
  Is
• 2:29
  this
• 2:29
  a
• 2:30
  true
• 2:30
  statement
• 2:30
  or
• 2:30
  not?
• 2:31
  We
• 2:31
  know
• 2:32
  that
• 2:32
  job's
• 2:32
  friends,
• 2:33
  were
• 2:33
  in
• 2:33
  the
• 2:33
  wrong
• 2:34
  in
• 2:34
  this
• 2:34
  book,
• 2:34
  so
• 2:35
  it's
• 2:35
  interesting.
• 2:36
  Even
• 2:36
  as
• 2:36
  job
• 2:36
  wrestles
• 2:37
  with
• 2:37
  his
• 2:37
  suffering
• 2:38
  and
• 2:38
  his
• 2:38
  friends
• 2:38
  wrongly
• 2:39
  accuse
• 2:39
  him
• 2:40
  much
• 2:40
  of
• 2:40
  what
• 2:40
  is
• 2:40
  said,
• 2:41
  it
• 2:41
  doesn't
• 2:41
  seem
• 2:41
  to
• 2:42
  be
• 2:42
  quite
• 2:42
  right,
• 2:43
  but
• 2:43
  then
• 2:43
  I'll
• 2:44
  see
• 2:44
  some
• 2:44
  verses
• 2:45
  that
• 2:45
  seem
• 2:45
  like
• 2:45
  they
• 2:45
  are
• 2:46
  speaking
• 2:46
  good
• 2:47
  and
• 2:47
  true
• 2:47
  words
• 2:48
  about
• 2:48
  God.
• 2:49
  It's
• 2:49
  confusing
• 2:49
  to
• 2:49
  understand
• 2:50
  what
• 2:51
  are
• 2:51
  the
• 2:51
  truths
• 2:51
  we're
• 2:51
  supposed
• 2:52
  to
• 2:52
  embrace
• 2:52
  and
• 2:53
  what
• 2:53
  is
• 2:53
  just
• 2:53
  provided
• 2:54
  for
• 2:54
  us,
• 2:55
  as
• 2:55
  an
• 2:55
  example
• 2:55
  that
• 2:56
  sometimes
• 2:56
  people
• 2:57
  speak
• 2:57
  foolish
• 2:58
  or
• 2:58
  hurtful
• 2:59
  words.
• 2:59
  Really
• 3:00
  no
• 3:00
  one
• 3:01
  speaks
• 3:01
  the
• 3:01
  truth
• 3:02
  all
• 3:02
  the
• 3:02
  time
• 3:02
  except
• 3:03
  the
• 3:03
  Lord
• 3:04
  himself.
• 3:04
  I'm
• 3:05
  so
• 3:05
  thankful
• 3:05
  for
• 3:06
  his
• 3:06
  example
• 3:06
  to
• 3:06
  be
• 3:07
  our
• 3:07
  ultimate
• 3:07
  guide,
• 3:08
  and
• 3:08
  often
• 3:08
  Jesus's
• 3:09
  words
• 3:09
  in
• 3:09
  scripture
• 3:10
  can
• 3:10
  give
• 3:10
  us
• 3:10
  clarity.
• 3:11
  But
• 3:11
  I
• 3:11
  wanna
• 3:12
  take
• 3:12
  this
• 3:12
  opportunity
• 3:13
  to
• 3:13
  encourage
• 3:13
  you
• 3:13
  to
• 3:13
  weigh
• 3:14
  everyone's
• 3:14
  words
• 3:15
  in
• 3:15
  your
• 3:15
  life
• 3:15
  and
• 3:15
  certainly
• 3:16
  mine.
• 3:16
  I
• 3:17
  hope
• 3:17
  the
• 3:17
  things
• 3:17
  I
• 3:17
  say
• 3:17
  make
• 3:18
  you
• 3:18
  open
• 3:18
  your
• 3:18
  Bible
• 3:19
  for
• 3:19
  yourself
• 3:19
  and
• 3:20
  decide
• 3:20
  if
• 3:20
  you
• 3:20
  think
• 3:20
  they're
• 3:21
  true
• 3:21
  or
• 3:21
  not.
• 3:21
  Maybe
• 3:22
  there's
• 3:22
  an
• 3:22
  application
• 3:23
  I've
• 3:23
  made
• 3:23
  that
• 3:23
  didn't
• 3:24
  sit
• 3:24
  quite
• 3:24
  right
• 3:24
  with
• 3:24
  you,
• 3:25
  and
• 3:25
  although
• 3:25
  I
• 3:25
  am
• 3:26
  humbly
• 3:26
  seeking
• 3:27
  to
• 3:27
  honor
• 3:27
  God
• 3:27
  with
• 3:27
  all
• 3:27
  I
• 3:27
  say,
• 3:28
  i'm
• 3:28
  fallible
• 3:29
  and
• 3:29
  I
• 3:29
  want
• 3:30
  you
• 3:30
  to
• 3:30
  question
• 3:30
  what
• 3:30
  you
• 3:31
  hear.
• 3:31
  I
• 3:31
  can
• 3:31
  think
• 3:31
  of
• 3:32
  times
• 3:32
  I've
• 3:32
  gone
• 3:33
  on
• 3:33
  coffee
• 3:33
  dates
• 3:34
  or
• 3:34
  conversations
• 3:34
  I've
• 3:34
  had
• 3:34
  with
• 3:35
  great
• 3:35
  friends
• 3:36
  where
• 3:36
  initially
• 3:36
  they
• 3:37
  said
• 3:37
  something
• 3:37
  so
• 3:37
  encouraging
• 3:38
  that
• 3:38
  feels
• 3:39
  truly
• 3:39
  helpful,
• 3:40
  and
• 3:40
  then
• 3:40
  later
• 3:41
  they
• 3:41
  say
• 3:41
  something
• 3:42
  that
• 3:42
  just
• 3:42
  doesn't
• 3:43
  sit
• 3:43
  right
• 3:43
  with
• 3:43
  me
• 3:44
  and
• 3:44
  I
• 3:44
  need
• 3:44
  to
• 3:44
  take
• 3:44
  it
• 3:44
  to
• 3:45
  the
• 3:45
  Lord.
• 3:45
  We
• 3:46
  have
• 3:46
  to
• 3:46
  test
• 3:46
  everything
• 3:47
  people
• 3:47
  tell
• 3:47
  us
• 3:48
  no
• 3:48
  matter
• 3:48
  how
• 3:48
  much
• 3:49
  we
• 3:49
  love
• 3:49
  or
• 3:49
  respect
• 3:50
  them.
• 3:50
  And
• 3:50
  I
• 3:50
  wanna
• 3:50
  issue
• 3:51
  a
• 3:51
  challenge
• 3:51
  that
• 3:51
  we
• 3:51
  can
• 3:52
  be
• 3:52
  teaching
• 3:52
  our
• 3:52
  kids,
• 3:53
  especially
• 3:53
  in
• 3:54
  these
• 3:54
  days
• 3:55
  of
• 3:55
  social
• 3:55
  media
• 3:56
  and
• 3:56
  algorithms,
• 3:57
  when
• 3:57
  much
• 3:57
  of
• 3:57
  what
• 3:57
  we
• 3:58
  see
• 3:58
  is
• 3:58
  curated
• 3:59
  to
• 3:59
  our
• 4:00
  specific
• 4:00
  viewpoint.
• 4:01
  If
• 4:01
  you
• 4:01
  agree
• 4:02
  with
• 4:03
  100%
• 4:04
  of
• 4:04
  something
• 4:05
  that
• 4:05
  someone
• 4:05
  in
• 4:05
  particular
• 4:06
  says,
• 4:07
  and
• 4:07
  you
• 4:07
  give
• 4:07
  them
• 4:07
  carte
• 4:08
  blanche,
• 4:09
  if
• 4:09
  this
• 4:09
  person
• 4:09
  said
• 4:09
  it,
• 4:10
  I
• 4:10
  agree
• 4:10
  with
• 4:10
  it.
• 4:11
  I
• 4:11
  think
• 4:11
  you
• 4:11
  probably
• 4:12
  have
• 4:12
  that
• 4:12
  person
• 4:12
  too
• 4:13
  high
• 4:13
  on
• 4:13
  a
• 4:13
  pedestal,
• 4:14
  and
• 4:14
  you
• 4:14
  need
• 4:14
  to
• 4:15
  make
• 4:15
  sure
• 4:15
  that
• 4:15
  Jesus
• 4:16
  Christ
• 4:16
  is
• 4:17
  the
• 4:17
  only
• 4:17
  one
• 4:17
  you
• 4:17
  esteem
• 4:18
  that
• 4:18
  highly.
• 4:19
  This
• 4:19
  might
• 4:19
  be
• 4:19
  a
• 4:19
  political
• 4:20
  leader,
• 4:20
  a
• 4:20
  pastor,
• 4:21
  or
• 4:21
  an
• 4:21
  influencer
• 4:22
  on
• 4:22
  social
• 4:22
  media,
• 4:23
  and
• 4:23
  the
• 4:23
  reverse
• 4:24
  is
• 4:24
  also
• 4:24
  true.
• 4:25
  If
• 4:25
  you
• 4:25
  100%
• 4:27
  disagree
• 4:27
  with
• 4:28
  every
• 4:28
  single
• 4:29
  thing
• 4:29
  that
• 4:29
  comes
• 4:30
  outta
• 4:30
  someone's
• 4:30
  mouth,
• 4:30
  the
• 4:31
  second
• 4:31
  that
• 4:31
  you
• 4:32
  know
• 4:32
  they
• 4:32
  said
• 4:32
  it,
• 4:33
  then
• 4:33
  I
• 4:33
  think
• 4:33
  you're
• 4:34
  also
• 4:34
  falling
• 4:34
  into
• 4:35
  an
• 4:35
  error.
• 4:35
  If
• 4:35
  we
• 4:36
  believe
• 4:36
  everyone
• 4:36
  is
• 4:36
  made
• 4:37
  in
• 4:37
  the
• 4:37
  image
• 4:37
  of
• 4:37
  God,
• 4:38
  then
• 4:38
  I
• 4:38
  hope
• 4:38
  you're
• 4:38
  open
• 4:39
  to
• 4:39
  seeing
• 4:39
  some
• 4:40
  good
• 4:40
  in
• 4:40
  each
• 4:40
  person
• 4:41
  too.
• 4:42
  With
• 4:42
  those
• 4:42
  clarifications,
• 4:43
  we're
• 4:44
  gonna
• 4:44
  continue
• 4:45
  and
• 4:45
  our
• 4:45
  reading
• 4:45
  today
• 4:46
  will
• 4:46
  be
• 4:46
  in
• 4:46
  chapter
• 4:47
  eight.
• 4:47
  Then
• 4:48
  build,
• 4:48
  add
• 4:48
  the
• 4:48
  shoe
• 4:49
  height
• 4:49
  answered
• 4:49
  and
• 4:49
  said,
• 4:50
  how
• 4:50
  long
• 4:51
  will
• 4:51
  you
• 4:51
  say
• 4:51
  these
• 4:51
  things
• 4:52
  and
• 4:52
  the
• 4:52
  words
• 4:53
  of
• 4:53
  your
• 4:53
  mouth
• 4:53
  be
• 4:53
  a
• 4:53
  great
• 4:54
  wind?
• 4:54
  Does
• 4:55
  God
• 4:55
  pervert
• 4:55
  justice
• 4:56
  or
• 4:56
  does
• 4:56
  the
• 4:57
  Almighty
• 4:57
  pervert
• 4:58
  the
• 4:58
  right?
• 4:58
  If
• 4:59
  your
• 4:59
  children
• 4:59
  have
• 4:59
  sinned
• 5:00
  against
• 5:00
  him,
• 5:01
  he
• 5:01
  has
• 5:01
  delivered
• 5:02
  them
• 5:02
  into
• 5:02
  the
• 5:02
  hand
• 5:02
  of
• 5:02
  their
• 5:02
  transgression.
• 5:04
  If
• 5:04
  you
• 5:04
  will
• 5:04
  seek
• 5:05
  God
• 5:05
  and
• 5:05
  plead
• 5:05
  with
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  Almighty
• 5:06
  for
• 5:06
  mercy,
• 5:07
  if
• 5:07
  you
• 5:07
  are
• 5:08
  pure
• 5:08
  and
• 5:08
  upright,
• 5:09
  surely,
• 5:10
  then
• 5:10
  he
• 5:10
  will
• 5:10
  rouse
• 5:11
  himself
• 5:11
  for
• 5:11
  you.
• 5:12
  And
• 5:12
  restore
• 5:12
  your
• 5:13
  rightful
• 5:13
  habitation.
• 5:14
  And
• 5:14
  though
• 5:14
  your
• 5:15
  beginning
• 5:15
  was
• 5:15
  small,
• 5:16
  your
• 5:16
  latter
• 5:17
  days
• 5:17
  will
• 5:17
  be
• 5:17
  very
• 5:17
  great.
• 5:18
  For
• 5:18
  inquire
• 5:19
  please
• 5:19
  of
• 5:20
  bygone
• 5:20
  ages
• 5:21
  and
• 5:21
  consider
• 5:21
  what
• 5:22
  the
• 5:22
  fathers
• 5:22
  have
• 5:22
  searched
• 5:23
  out
• 5:23
  for.
• 5:23
  We
• 5:24
  are
• 5:24
  but
• 5:24
  of
• 5:24
  yesterday
• 5:25
  and
• 5:25
  know
• 5:25
  nothing
• 5:26
  for
• 5:26
  our
• 5:26
  days
• 5:27
  on
• 5:27
  earth
• 5:27
  are
• 5:27
  a
• 5:27
  shadow.
• 5:28
  Will
• 5:28
  they
• 5:29
  not
• 5:29
  teach
• 5:29
  you
• 5:29
  and
• 5:29
  tell
• 5:30
  you
• 5:30
  and
• 5:30
  utter
• 5:31
  words
• 5:31
  of
• 5:31
  their
• 5:31
  understanding?
• 5:32
  And
• 5:33
  then
• 5:33
  in
• 5:33
  verse
• 5:33
  13,
• 5:34
  such
• 5:34
  are
• 5:34
  the
• 5:35
  paths
• 5:35
  of
• 5:35
  all
• 5:36
  who
• 5:36
  forget
• 5:36
  God.
• 5:37
  The
• 5:37
  hope
• 5:37
  of
• 5:38
  the
• 5:38
  godless
• 5:38
  shall
• 5:38
  perish.
• 5:39
  His
• 5:39
  confidence
• 5:40
  is
• 5:40
  severed
• 5:41
  and
• 5:41
  his
• 5:41
  trust
• 5:42
  is
• 5:42
  a
• 5:42
  spiderweb.
• 5:43
  He
• 5:43
  leans
• 5:43
  against
• 5:44
  his
• 5:44
  house,
• 5:44
  but
• 5:44
  it
• 5:44
  does
• 5:45
  not
• 5:45
  stand.
• 5:46
  He
• 5:46
  lays
• 5:46
  hold
• 5:46
  of
• 5:46
  it,
• 5:47
  but
• 5:47
  it
• 5:47
  does
• 5:47
  not
• 5:47
  endure.
• 5:48
  And
• 5:48
  he
• 5:48
  closes
• 5:49
  his
• 5:49
  speech
• 5:49
  with
• 5:50
  behold,
• 5:51
  God
• 5:51
  will
• 5:51
  not
• 5:51
  reject
• 5:52
  a
• 5:52
  blameless
• 5:52
  man
• 5:53
  nor
• 5:53
  take
• 5:53
  the
• 5:54
  hand
• 5:54
  of
• 5:54
  evil
• 5:54
  doers.
• 5:55
  He
• 5:55
  will
• 5:55
  yet
• 5:56
  fill
• 5:56
  your
• 5:56
  mouth
• 5:56
  with
• 5:57
  laughter
• 5:57
  and
• 5:57
  your
• 5:57
  lips
• 5:58
  are
• 5:58
  shouting.
• 5:58
  Those
• 5:59
  who
• 5:59
  hate
• 5:59
  you
• 5:59
  will
• 6:00
  be
• 6:00
  clothed
• 6:00
  with
• 6:00
  shame,
• 6:01
  and
• 6:01
  the
• 6:01
  tent
• 6:01
  of
• 6:02
  the
• 6:02
  wicked
• 6:02
  will
• 6:02
  be
• 6:02
  no
• 6:02
  more.
• 6:04
  Can
• 6:04
  you
• 6:04
  imagine
• 6:05
  if
• 6:05
  one
• 6:05
  of
• 6:05
  your
• 6:06
  friends
• 6:06
  said
• 6:06
  to
• 6:06
  you
• 6:07
  perhaps
• 6:07
  a
• 6:07
  few
• 6:08
  months
• 6:08
  after
• 6:08
  you
• 6:08
  lost
• 6:09
  a
• 6:09
  child
• 6:10
  or
• 6:10
  all
• 6:10
  10
• 6:10
  of
• 6:11
  them?
• 6:11
  Obviously
• 6:12
  they
• 6:12
  were
• 6:12
  sinful.
• 6:13
  That's
• 6:13
  why
• 6:13
  God
• 6:14
  let
• 6:14
  them
• 6:14
  die.
• 6:15
  It's
• 6:15
  not
• 6:15
  helpful
• 6:16
  and
• 6:16
  it's
• 6:16
  certainly
• 6:17
  harmful.
• 6:18
  It
• 6:18
  won't
• 6:18
  bring
• 6:18
  them
• 6:18
  back,
• 6:19
  and
• 6:19
  it
• 6:19
  would
• 6:19
  be
• 6:19
  torturous
• 6:20
  as
• 6:20
  a
• 6:20
  mother
• 6:20
  to
• 6:21
  hear
• 6:21
  that.
• 6:21
  Billed
• 6:22
  is
• 6:22
  definitely
• 6:23
  cranking
• 6:23
  up
• 6:23
  the
• 6:24
  shame
• 6:24
  and
• 6:24
  guilt
• 6:24
  to
• 6:25
  a
• 6:25
  whole
• 6:25
  nother
• 6:25
  level
• 6:26
  with
• 6:26
  this
• 6:26
  speech.
• 6:27
  But
• 6:27
  interestingly,
• 6:28
  there
• 6:28
  does
• 6:28
  seem
• 6:28
  to
• 6:28
  be
• 6:29
  some
• 6:29
  real
• 6:29
  wisdom
• 6:30
  when
• 6:30
  he
• 6:30
  says
• 6:30
  that
• 6:31
  the
• 6:31
  hope
• 6:31
  of
• 6:31
  the
• 6:31
  godless
• 6:32
  will
• 6:32
  perish
• 6:33
  and
• 6:33
  that
• 6:33
  his
• 6:33
  trust
• 6:33
  is
• 6:34
  like
• 6:34
  a
• 6:34
  spider's
• 6:34
  web.
• 6:35
  That's
• 6:35
  a
• 6:35
  pretty
• 6:35
  interesting
• 6:36
  analogy.
• 6:37
  It's
• 6:37
  just
• 6:37
  so
• 6:37
  fragile.
• 6:38
  And
• 6:38
  then
• 6:39
  when,
• 6:40
  and
• 6:40
  then
• 6:40
  he
• 6:40
  says,
• 6:41
  this
• 6:41
  person
• 6:41
  leans
• 6:41
  against
• 6:42
  his
• 6:42
  house,
• 6:42
  but
• 6:42
  it
• 6:42
  does
• 6:42
  not
• 6:43
  stand.
• 6:43
  Which
• 6:44
  probably

  a

  us

  think
• 6:45
  about
• 6:45
  the

  foolish

  man

  that

  his

  upon

  Some

  of
• 6:48
  what
• 6:48
  Bill
• 6:49
  Dadd
• 6:49
  says
• 6:49
  is
• 6:49
  wise,
• 6:50
  but
• 6:50
  for
• 6:50
  the
• 6:50
  context
• 6:51
  and
• 6:51
  the
• 6:51
  situation,
• 6:52
  it's
• 6:53
  just
• 6:53
  not
• 6:53
  accurate
• 6:53
  or
• 6:53
  appropriate.

  our

  does

  this

  need

  to
• 6:58
  be

  said?
• 6:59
  Does
• 6:59
  this
• 7:00
  need
• 7:00
  to
• 7:00
  be
• 7:00
  said
• 7:00
  by

  me?
• 7:01
  And

  does

  this

  need
• 7:02
  to
• 7:02
  be
• 7:02
  said
• 7:02
  right
• 7:03
  now?
• 7:03
  It
• 7:04
  doesn't
• 7:04
  seem

  In

  Job
• 7:08
  seven
• 7:08
  17,

  job
• 7:09
  said,
• 7:10
  what
• 7:10
  is
• 7:10
  man
• 7:11
  that
• 7:11
  you
• 7:11
  make
• 7:11
  so
• 7:12
  much
• 7:12
  of
• 7:12
  him
• 7:12
  and

  that

  you

  set
• 7:13
  your

  heart
• 7:13
  on

  him?
• 7:14
  And
• 7:14
  this
• 7:14
  makes
• 7:15
  me
• 7:15
  think
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  Psalm
• 7:16
  chapter
• 7:16
  eight
• 7:16
  when
• 7:16
  David
• 7:17
  writes,
• 7:18
  oh
• 7:18
  Lord
• 7:18
  our
• 7:19
  Lord,
• 7:19
  how
• 7:19
  majestic
• 7:20
  is
• 7:20
  your
• 7:20
  name
• 7:20
  in
• 7:20
  all
• 7:21
  the
• 7:21
  earth?
• 7:21
  You
• 7:22
  have
• 7:22
  set
• 7:22
  your
• 7:22
  glory
• 7:23
  above
• 7:23
  the
• 7:23
  heavens.
• 7:24
  Out
• 7:24
  of
• 7:24
  the
• 7:24
  mouth
• 7:25
  of
• 7:25
  Babes
• 7:26
  and
• 7:26
  Infants,
• 7:26
  you
• 7:26
  have
• 7:26
  established
• 7:27
  strength
• 7:27
  because
• 7:28
  of
• 7:28
  your
• 7:28
  foes
• 7:29
  to
• 7:29
  still
• 7:30
  the
• 7:30
  enemy
• 7:30
  and
• 7:30
  the
• 7:30
  avenger.
• 7:31
  When
• 7:32
  I
• 7:32
  look
• 7:32
  at
• 7:32
  your
• 7:32
  heavens,
• 7:33
  the
• 7:33
  work
• 7:33
  of
• 7:33
  your
• 7:33
  hands,
• 7:34
  the
• 7:34
  moon
• 7:35
  and
• 7:35
  the
• 7:35
  stars,
• 7:35
  which
• 7:36
  you
• 7:36
  have
• 7:36
  set
• 7:36
  in
• 7:36
  place,
• 7:37
  what
• 7:37
  is
• 7:37
  man
• 7:38
  that
• 7:38
  you
• 7:38
  are
• 7:38
  mindful
• 7:38
  of
• 7:39
  him
• 7:39
  and
• 7:39
  the
• 7:39
  son
• 7:40
  of
• 7:40
  man,
• 7:40
  that
• 7:40
  you
• 7:40
  care
• 7:41
  for
• 7:41
  him?
• 7:41
  You
• 7:42
  have
• 7:42
  made
• 7:42
  him
• 7:42
  a
• 7:42
  little
• 7:43
  lower
• 7:43
  than
• 7:43
  the
• 7:43
  heavenly
• 7:44
  beings
• 7:44
  and
• 7:44
  crowned
• 7:45
  him
• 7:45
  with
• 7:45
  glory
• 7:46
  and
• 7:46
  honor.
• 7:46
  You
• 7:47
  have
• 7:47
  given
• 7:47
  him
• 7:47
  dominion
• 7:48
  over
• 7:48
  the
• 7:48
  works
• 7:48
  of
• 7:49
  your
• 7:49
  hands.
• 7:50
  He
• 7:50
  goes
• 7:50
  on
• 7:50
  to
• 7:50
  confirm
• 7:51
  some
• 7:51
  of
• 7:51
  the
• 7:51
  promises
• 7:52
  of
• 7:52
  dominion
• 7:53
  that
• 7:53
  God
• 7:53
  gave
• 7:53
  Adam
• 7:53
  and
• 7:54
  Eve
• 7:54
  in
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  garden.
• 7:55
  But
• 7:55
  this
• 7:55
  question,
• 7:56
  what
• 7:56
  is
• 7:56
  man
• 7:57
  that
• 7:57
  you
• 7:57
  are
• 7:57
  so
• 7:57
  mindful
• 7:58
  of
• 7:58
  him?
• 7:58
  How
• 7:59
  do
• 7:59
  we
• 7:59
  serve
• 8:00
  a
• 8:00
  God
• 8:00
  that
• 8:00
  cares
• 8:00
  so
• 8:01
  deeply
• 8:01
  for
• 8:01
  us
• 8:02
  and
• 8:02
  longs
• 8:02
  to
• 8:02
  dwell
• 8:03
  with
• 8:03
  us?
• 8:03
  Well,
• 8:04
  here's
• 8:04
  another
• 8:04
  question
• 8:05
  we
• 8:05
  can't
• 8:05
  answer,
• 8:06
  but
• 8:06
  we
• 8:06
  can
• 8:07
  delight
• 8:07
  in.
• 8:08
  Heavenly
• 8:08
  Father,
• 8:08
  we
• 8:09
  are
• 8:09
  in
• 8:09
  awe
• 8:09
  that
• 8:10
  you
• 8:10
  are
• 8:10
  mindful
• 8:10
  of
• 8:10
  us
• 8:11
  we
• 8:11
  thank
• 8:12
  you
• 8:12
  that
• 8:12
  you
• 8:12
  are
• 8:12
  aware
• 8:13
  of
• 8:13
  our
• 8:13
  coming
• 8:13
  and
• 8:14
  our
• 8:14
  going
• 8:14
  and
• 8:14
  all
• 8:15
  that
• 8:15
  we
• 8:15
  say
• 8:15
  and
• 8:16
  do,
• 8:16
  and
• 8:16
  thank.
• 8:17
  And
• 8:17
  we
• 8:17
  pray
• 8:17
  that
• 8:18
  this
• 8:18
  understanding
• 8:19
  will
• 8:19
  transform
• 8:19
  how
• 8:19
  we
• 8:20
  live,
• 8:20
  help
• 8:21
  us
• 8:21
  and
• 8:21
  help
• 8:21
  our
• 8:21
  children
• 8:22
  to
• 8:22
  set
• 8:23
  our
• 8:23
  hearts
• 8:23
  on
• 8:23
  bringing
• 8:24
  you
• 8:24
  glory
• 8:24
  more
• 8:24
  than
• 8:25
  anything
• 8:25
  else.
• 8:26
  Give
• 8:26
  us
• 8:26
  discernment
• 8:27
  to
• 8:27
  test
• 8:28
  and
• 8:28
  weigh
• 8:28
  what
• 8:29
  we
• 8:29
  say,
• 8:29
  but
• 8:29
  also
• 8:30
  what
• 8:30
  we
• 8:30
  hear
• 8:31
  in
• 8:32
  this
• 8:32
  age
• 8:32
  when
• 8:32
  there
• 8:32
  are

  so
• 8:33
  many
• 8:33
  words
• 8:34
  said,
• 8:35
  written
• 8:35
  and

  recorded.
• 8:36
  We
• 8:36
  pray
• 8:36
  you
• 8:36
  would
• 8:37
  help
• 8:37
  us
• 8:37
  to
• 8:38
  be
• 8:38
  above
• 8:38
  reproach
• 8:38
  and
• 8:39
  to
• 8:39
  guide
• 8:39
  our
• 8:39
  children
• 8:40
  in
• 8:40
  that
• 8:40
  manner
• 8:40
  as
• 8:40
  well.
• 8:41
  Whether

  our

  words

  are
• 8:42
  public
• 8:42
  or

  private,

  may

  we

  the

  truth
• 8:45
  and
• 8:45
  love
• 8:45
  following

  it's

  Amen.
