• 0:54
  Speaker 1: time where we go live on the radio station. We
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: go through the word verse by verse, chapter by chapter.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: And also this is the time where we meet up
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: in the live chat. The live chat be popping, y'all. Hey,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: we want y'all to be a part of it. We
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: want to grow our Uline community. Consider us your small
• 1:17

  Speaker 1: Is very easy. He just takes a couple of minutes
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: and you are a part of the community. In this community,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: we believe that the ingrafted word is able to save
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: our souls. So we take time out to study it,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to chew on it, to get nourishment from it. And
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: also we believe in accountability, right, we want to stay
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: on that narrow path that leads to life and make
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: sure that we do not get off on the exit
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: called the broad road to destruction. Jesus tells us in
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the Word that there are few who find that that
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: narrow path, that path to life, and then that there
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: are many who travel down that broad road that leads
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: to destruction. So very sobering and uh, you know, here
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: on this podcast we go over all of the Word
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: of God, all the warnings, the we talk about the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: God of love, but he's also a just god. He
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: demands justice. And so we are instructed as ministers to
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: tell the wicked to turn from your wicked ways or
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you will be judged. And see, if we don't share
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: that message, the Bible says that their blood is on
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: our hands if we don't warn the wicked. So, yes,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: you got to get off of that wicked path, that
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: broad road that leads to destruction. You need to repent
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: and get on the life of obedience, get on the
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: life of faithfulness, to live that regenerated life in Christ. Amen.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: So that's what we are about here on the His
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Hot Radio Network, on His actually His Hot Nation. That's
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: us that's it. Our passion in our heart is to
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: preach the word, to evangelize and to save as many
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: souls as possible. Amen. So we're letting you know our
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: agenda upfront. And even if you have received Christ, you
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: need to be discipled. And so this is just a taste,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: right if you follow along, if you meet us every day,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: that develops a daily discipline, a spiritual discipline, a man.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: We are to help and aid and come along. So
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: as you spend your own devotional time with the Lord. Amen,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: you can't just you know, get nourishment from us alone. No,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you got to have your own time sitting at the
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: feet of the Lord, allowing him to teach in strengthen you.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: And then we come here for fellowship for community, and
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: we do disciple on this podcast. So all right, with
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: all of that, let's go ahead and go before the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Father in prayer. Heavenly Father, we thank you, Father God,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: for another opportunity, Father God, to minister and to be
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: on this podcast, to be on this radio station. Father God,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: we ask Lord that you will lead us and guide us,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: and that you will take over this podcast, take over
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the airwaves of God. Use me as a vessel to
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: speak your word to your people, God, and we ask
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: God that this word will go out without him in
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Jesus' name. Hey man, hallelujah. Well, first I want to
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: say the other podcast got cut off. It was pretty bad.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: It was pretty bad. I was on there. I was coughing,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: trying to clear my throat, and what happened was I
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: thought I deleted that, and I thought I uploaded the
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: correct recording. But when it aired and when it played,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I got some texts, some messages. I got a message
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: from Zone three He's like, man, you need to check
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: your recording. And then when I went and checked it,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh man, I'm coughing and all kinds of stuff.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: So I do apologize. But those of you who had
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: to endure that, and if you didn't, well, praise God. Hallelujah.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: We're gonna get it right on this one. So on
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: this one, we're gonna go through acts. We're in Acts
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: chapter fifteen, and we're gonna pick it up in verse
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: thirty six and we're gonna go to forty one. We're
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: gonna break it down in bite sized pieces. Also, get
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: your bibles, you know, pass and highlighters and follow along
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: with us. Say, man, now we're gonna look at real leadership,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: real tension, and real growth in this chapter. Now, if
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: you can remember the Jerusalem Council where we settled the
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: debate about legalism in the church and whether or not
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: the Gentiles shall absorb observe the law, the Jewish law.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: And you think that we would expect smooth selling, right,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: we just got over one thing. And then, if you
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: remember the episode, said that we are to contend for
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: the faith when false teachers pop up. You know, we
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: got to get in the boxing ring, right, you gotta
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: do some one two punches or whatever. And so they
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: knocked it out the box. But in this chapter we
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: get a sharp disagreement between Paul and Silas, I mean
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Paul and Barnabas, right after the Jerusalem Council. So let's
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: walk through this verse by verse. In verse thirty six,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: it says, and after some days, Paul said to Barnabas,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: let us now go back and visit our brethren in
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: every city where we have preached the word of the Lord,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: and see how they are doing. Hallelujah amen. Now, I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: think it's interesting how when they started the ministry journey,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: it was started out by the Holy Spirit speaking to
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: the elders in the church, and they were sent out.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: They laid hands on them, they sent them out, and
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: then after the journey was over there came back and
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: gave a report. They were submitted, they were held accountable,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: all that good stuff. And so now it starts here
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: that Paul initiates it. Now I'm not saying the Holy
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Spirit didn't, but I'm just going by what the scriptures say,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: and maybe the Holy Spirit spoke to Paul in prayer
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: to go back and see how they are doing. But
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: we're gonna look into how this is awesome and a
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: rare heart that Paul the apostle has here. Amen, the
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: heart of Paul was pastorial. This is a heart of
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: a pastor. He wants to check on the believers from
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: the first ministry journey. Now, the motivation was not about numbers.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: It was about nurturing. It was about helping the brothers
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: mature and to grow. Now, true ministry doesn't just evangelize alone. Right,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: True ministry will establish people, will establish principles in the world,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: will establish godly lead, godly living. Get my lips to
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: work here. Now, Paul wasn't content with converts at all,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: that's not the goal just to get converts. He wanted
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: disciples rooted in the truth, and that is a motive
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: behind this podcast. And I guess you could say that
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: I have the same heart. I have a heart to evangelize,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: to reach people for Christ, but then I also have
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: a heart to see them grow and to get rooted
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: in the truth. Amen. Now, revisiting churches shows that Paul
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: took responsibil And we also got to see leaders in
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the body that will strengthen the saints. Amen. If you
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: find a leader in the Body of Christ that is first,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: living right, living under God's integrity, and you see him
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: strengthening the Saints the body of Christ and the days
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: we're living in now, that is rare. That is something
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to cherish and hold on to and be faithful to
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: and to help build up that ministry. Amen. And you
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: could say that Paul will call himself a spiritual father right.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: This is like spiritual fatherhood. You don't just birth something
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: and abandon it. And this is exactly how I feel
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: about his hot Nation. We don't just launch programs, we
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: follow up, we build, and we strengthened. Now, the word
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: visit implies oversight or care. Let me say that again.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: The word visit it in the churches. It implies that
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: he wants to provide oversight. He wants to take care
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: of the churches, and he wants to check on their maturity.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: How is their progress? How are they growing in Christ?
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: And that's the goal. A lot of that gets so
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: missed right in our church experiences nowadays. A lot of
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: churches of the pastor wants you to depend on them like,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: they don't preach maturity, they don't help their people grow.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: And man, that's why we got to know our word Hallelujah,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: verse thirty seven. Now Barnabas was determined to take with
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: them John called Mark. Now Barnabas, his name means son
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: of encouragement, wants to give Mark another chance. Now, remember
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Mark abandoned them in their first missionary journey, and you
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: can find that story in Acts chapter thirteen. I don't
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: know what the situation was. Maybe he didn't like the opposition,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: maybe he didn't know what to expect, or he just
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: was not ready, but he left. Now Barnabas has a
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: heart to see potential, even though he may have failed
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: or whatever the situation may be. Barnabas saw the potential,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: and grace always gives us second chances. Amen. I am
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: so thankful that God gave me a second, and third,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: and fourth, fifth, and six. And you know however many
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: chances God has given us Amen now verse thirty eight. Though,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: but Paul insisted that they should not take with them
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: the one who had departed from them in Pamphilia. Right now.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: The word insisted suggest a strong conviction. Paul was strong
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: in his heart in his conviction that he should not
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: come now. Paul sees reliability as essential for ministry. You
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: gotta be reliable. Now, who's right in this situation? In
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: this debate, they both were. They were both right, They
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: just had different angles of the situation. They saw it
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: from different viewpoints. Barnabas believed in restoration, but Paul also
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: believed in accountability. I believe that there should be a
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: healthy balance between the two. Leadership requires dependability, especially in
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: times of hardship. Who knows what they were dealing with,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: what they were going through in the first missionary journey.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: But you don't give up as a leader just because
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: things get hard or things get difficult. Now this brings
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: tension between the leaders here. Now you have mercy and
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: mentioned I mean mercy and mission, and you also have
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: encouragement and efficiency, you have compassion, and you have calling.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Sometimes leaders clash because both care deeply, both are deeply convicted,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: both have passions for what they believe in, and so
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: sometimes that can cause a division verse ety nine. Then
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: the contention becomes so sharp that they parted from one another. Wow,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to me, this kind of heartbreak. And I kind of
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: like to see people who started together finish together. Right,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Sometimes that's not always a case, especially in marriage and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: in families. But the Greek word here for tension is
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: paroxymos p arx y smo. S Now, you can pronounce
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: that all you want now, it means intense provocation. Intense provocation.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: This wasn't a mild disagreement. This was heated and they
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: had to separate because of it. Now, there's some important
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: observation we need to take care.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: The text does not record any sin. It didn't speak
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: of any gall of bitterness, did not speak of a
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: church split. There was not a slam their campaign going
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: on here. It was just a separation. Now, if you're
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: going to separate in the Kingdom, this is how you
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: do it. God uses this disagreement to double the ministry effort. Right,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Instead of one team going out, now you have two
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: teams going out. Barnabas takes Mark in Cyprus, Paul takes
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Silas in Syria and Silasia struggling with these names, Man,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: what was going on with these parents giving these names
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: to these children? Like this, God multiplies ministry through conflict.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: If you really think about it, a lot of things
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: are birth because there was a need, because there was
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: a conflict. But you see this as mature Christianity. This
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: is a great example for us and how to do
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: this in a mature way, because sometimes separation is strategic,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: not a sinful thing. Sometimes God expands territory through uncomfortable moments.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Conflict doesn't cancel our calling. Let me say that again,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Conflict does not cancel out our calling. Nothing. If God
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: before us, who can be against us? Amen, Verse forty.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: But Paul chooses silence and departed, being commended by the
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: brethren to the grace of God. Hallelujah that us. Notice
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: as Paul is commended to grace, he was not commended
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: to the law. He was not commended for a great personality,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: charismatic teacher, and it was not his ambition. Right, it
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: was the grace of God that would accomplish this missionary
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: journey ministry that they're called to. Even in disagreement, the
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Church praise them forward. The Church still commends them and
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: supports them by the grace of God. All right, Verse
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: forty one. And he went through Cyrus and Soelicia strengthening
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the church. Now strengthening. Here that word speaks of stability,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: And man, we need to add this to our prayer list,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: that God will bring us stability in our own lives
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: and also stability in the church. The mission continues. No
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: one quits just because there was a separation, and no
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: one burns bridges publicly. There is no smear campaigns, right Man,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Our politicians could learn a lot from this chapter. They
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: just kept serving serving God. All right. Now, let's break
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: this down a little more here. Spiritual maturity includes conflicts.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: Sometimes if the apostles can disagree, you know that we
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: can and we will and we have right. But the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: question is do we disagree in a mature way or
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: is it sinful when we disagree? Disagreement does not equal
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: division in the spirit. The gospel must keep moving, beloved,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: We can still in the spirit stay united. Amen, God
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: can multiply impact through separation. One team becomes two, and
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: also restoration matters. Now I check this out. Years later,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Paul calls Mark useful in his industry. Now, if you
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: look it up, take this note. I'm gonna give you
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: a scripture two Timothy, chapter four, verse eleven. You can
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: see that Grace won the battle here because Mark was
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: restored back to Paul. Now here's the application here. Now
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: we got to ask ourselves, are you holding bitterness over
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: a ministry disagreement that was a trick of the enemy.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: We need to get that guard our hearts against bitterness
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: of any kind. Amen. Did a relationship in and you
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: called it betrayal, but maybe God called it expansion. We
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: don't like it when somebody who he thought was supposed
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: to be with us. Right, some people are not called
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: to go where you're called to go. Some people are temporary,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: some people are long term. We got to know the difference.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: And sometimes I've learned, especially being in ministry, that God
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: is protecting us or protecting the move of God. When
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: he removes people. He knows who he can trust and
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: who not to. And I was ill equipped. I was
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: so immature and not really prepared to lead a ministry,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: or at least I should have been investing in myself
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: a little better because I've allowed a lot of snakes
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: until my inner circle, and God had to remove almost
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: every one of them in order to this for the
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: ministry to survive. And I've learned now, Hey man, highsight
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: is twenty twenty. It's like we got to pray over
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: these connections and over our relationships. Now some of us
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: are stuck because we are replaying conflict instead of moving forward. Right,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: we need to stop. We need to push Paul's on
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: that instant replay button. Stop thinking about it. We got
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: to move forward. Part of its move forward. Paul moved forward,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: and so should we. Right. I'm speaking to myself as
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: I talk about this, and I have moved forward for
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: the most part. I mean, no one's perfect. But when
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: I do bring up my experience and the things that
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: I've learned, it's a teaching point to learn and hopefully
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: something if you're listening and you're just starting out, that
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: you can learn from my mistakes that you don't make
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: the same mistakes. I mean, amen, hallelujah. Now, I also
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: want to make this observation as well, even though Paul
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: and Barnabas separated, the Book of Acts, now this is
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the Holy Bible, this is his record for all eternity.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: What he chose to record, Barnabas kind of disappears from
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: the story. We don't at least I haven't come across
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: any chapters that explains Barnabas, what he went through, or
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: you know, his ministries or you know what I mean,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: or how he went on his journey. You know, we
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: don't know what happened. Now. I believe it was amazing,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: and I believe that God was with them, But even eventually, Mark,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: the very person that they separated over, ends up going
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: with Paul. So, if anything, maybe that ministry didn't last
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: as long as Paul's. Maybe Barnabas was not called because
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: we know the scripture tells us that Paul was chosen
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: by Jesus, hand picked, and so you know, this was
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: not Barnaface is calling to function in that capacity. I
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: don't ask just my opinion, but I mean, maybe you know,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: post something into life chat let us know what are
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: your thoughts. How Come we don't really know what happened
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: to Barnabas, And how come John Mark ends up leaving
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Barnabas and you know, going and win Paul's ministry. You know,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: we know that Paul did this until he was taken
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: to heaven. Paul never stopped. So anyway, that's for some
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: extra credit right there. Now when we've got to admit
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: to ourselves and you know we can. God loves it
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: when we're honest, right, But you got to ask yourself
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: if you've been hurt in ministry, which I have, and
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: if you've been disappointed by a leader I have again,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: and if you have walked through separation I have on
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: so many levels, ask a holy spirit teach me to
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: move without bitterness. Amen, y'all need to add this to
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: your prayer list as you talk and make a request,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: knowing befo the Lord, teach us Lord to move forward,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: but to move forward without bitterness. Growth is not avoiding conflict.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: It's handling it without losing Christ. Amen. Let me say
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: that one more time. Growth is not trying to avoid
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: any type of conflict. Sometimes conflict is unavoidable, but we
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: need to handle the conflict without losing Christ. That would
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: be great for married couples right now, right, we can
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: have a conflict in the spirit and not in the flesh.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: The flesh is not equipped for conflict. Amen, All right,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: say your break.

  Speaker 1: about what we just went over. Right. Now, Remember this
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: conflict doesn't destroy the church at all. As a matter
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: of fact, it expands the work of God and that
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: could apply to your life personally. Conflict doesn't destroy the
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: call of God on your life. It actually will expand it. Now,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: today's episode teaches us that your believers don't quit when
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: tension rises. They just keep moving, I mean, calling upon
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: the grace of God. Right. They were commended to grace
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: by the early Church. So once again we appreciate y'all.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Keep walking in grace, keep moving without bitterness, and let
