- Around the sea of galilee, if you took all of the cities
- 00:02:48.161 --> 00:02:49.529
- If you took all of the cities that were there and you added
- 00:02:49.596 --> 00:02:50.697
- That were there and you added up their civilization
- 00:02:50.763 --> 00:02:52.265
- Up their civilization and their population,
- 00:02:52.332 --> 00:02:53.166
- And their population, you'd have about 40,000
- 00:02:53.233 --> 00:02:54.667
- You'd have about 40,000 people.
- 00:02:54.734 --> 00:02:55.335
- People. but because it's the passover,

- About half of them are with jesus.
- 00:03:01.741 --> 00:03:03.876
- With jesus. jesus was with his disciples
- 00:03:03.943 --> 00:03:05.378
- Jesus was with his disciples up on the mountain.
- 00:03:05.445 --> 00:03:06.446

- He was moved with compassion. and as he saw them coming
- 00:03:14.587 --> 00:03:16.055

- 00:03:16.122 --> 00:03:16.889
- His way, he began to teach them,
- 00:03:16.956 --> 00:03:18.625
- He began to teach them, and he began to touch them,
- 00:03:18.691 --> 00:03:20.360
- And he began to touch them, and he began to pray for them.
- 00:03:20.426 --> 00:03:22.095

- 00:03:22.161 --> 00:03:24.664
- And it stayed going on and on and on until it was late.
- 00:03:24.731 --> 00:03:27.734
- And on until it was late. and then jesus does something
- 00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:29.235
- And then jesus does something that catches the disciples
- 00:03:29.302 --> 00:03:30.403
- That catches the disciples by surprise.
- 00:03:30.470 --> 00:03:32.105
- By surprise. he asks a question.
- 00:03:32.171 --> 00:03:34.741
- He asks a question. "where can we find bread,
- 00:03:34.807 --> 00:03:37.310
- "where can we find bread, that all of these people
- 00:03:37.377 --> 00:03:38.678
- That all of these people may eat?"
- 00:03:38.745 --> 00:03:40.413
- May eat?" in john's gospel,
- 00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:42.415
- In john's gospel, he asks this question
- 00:03:42.482 --> 00:03:43.583
- He asks this question to philip.
- 00:03:43.650 --> 00:03:44.284
- To philip. why?
- 00:03:44.350 --> 00:03:46.319
- Why? because philip was from
- 00:03:46.386 --> 00:03:47.387
- Because philip was from bethsaida.
- 00:03:47.453 --> 00:03:48.955
- Bethsaida. luke 9:10 says the area that
- 00:03:49.022 --> 00:03:51.457
- Luke 9:10 says the area that they were gathered belonged to
- 00:03:51.524 --> 00:03:52.592
- They were gathered belonged to bethsaida.
- 00:03:52.659 --> 00:03:53.459
- Bethsaida. john 12 says philip was from
- 00:03:53.526 --> 00:03:55.428
- John 12 says philip was from bethsaida.
- 00:03:55.495 --> 00:03:56.062
- Bethsaida. so here's how the conversation
- 00:03:56.129 --> 00:03:57.163
- So here's how the conversation went.
- 00:03:57.230 --> 00:03:57.664
- Went. jesus looks at this multitude
- 00:03:57.730 --> 00:03:58.965
- Jesus looks at this multitude of people and he says,
- 00:03:59.032 --> 00:03:59.666
- Of people and he says, "hey phil,
- 00:03:59.732 --> 00:04:01.501
- "hey phil, we're in your neighborhood.
- 00:04:01.567 --> 00:04:02.235
- We're in your neighborhood. who's got the best tacos?"
- 00:04:02.302 --> 00:04:04.537
- Who's got the best tacos?" (laughter)
- 00:04:04.604 --> 00:04:08.174
- (laughter) and philip freaks out.
- 00:04:08.241 --> 00:04:10.910
- And philip freaks out. but the bible says that jesus
- 00:04:10.977 --> 00:04:12.612
- But the bible says that jesus asked philip this question
- 00:04:12.679 --> 00:04:14.547
- Asked philip this question to test him,
- 00:04:14.614 --> 00:04:17.116
- To test him, because he knew what he
- 00:04:17.183 --> 00:04:20.219
- Because he knew what he would do.
- 00:04:20.286 --> 00:04:22.855
- Would do. don't you ever get worried
- 00:04:22.922 --> 00:04:24.023
- Don't you ever get worried when jesus asks you
- 00:04:24.090 --> 00:04:25.258
- When jesus asks you a question.
- 00:04:25.325 --> 00:04:25.758
- A question. he's not looking for
- 00:04:25.825 --> 00:04:26.859
- He's not looking for the answer.
- 00:04:26.926 --> 00:04:27.593
- The answer. he's all-knowing.
- 00:04:27.660 --> 00:04:28.528
- He's all-knowing. he's already god the answer.
- 00:04:28.594 --> 00:04:30.663
- He's already god the answer. [yes.]
- 00:04:30.730 --> 00:04:31.531
- [yes.] (applause)
- 00:04:31.597 --> 00:04:32.131
- (applause) how do you know he's got
- 00:04:32.198 --> 00:04:32.999
- How do you know he's got the answer?
- 00:04:33.066 --> 00:04:33.533
- The answer? because he is the answer.
- 00:04:33.599 --> 00:04:35.768
- Because he is the answer. [yes.]
- 00:04:35.835 --> 00:04:36.369
- [yes.] john 1:3,
- 00:04:36.436 --> 00:04:37.637
- John 1:3, "all things were made through
- 00:04:37.704 --> 00:04:39.439
- "all things were made through him,
- 00:04:39.505 --> 00:04:39.972
- Him, without him nothing was made
- 00:04:40.039 --> 00:04:41.574
- Without him nothing was made that was made."
- 00:04:41.641 --> 00:04:43.009
- That was made." that means that when jesus
- 00:04:43.076 --> 00:04:44.043
- That means that when jesus wants to bless somebody,
- 00:04:44.110 --> 00:04:45.378
- Wants to bless somebody, he already knows where
- 00:04:45.445 --> 00:04:46.412
- He already knows where the blessing is coming from.
- 00:04:46.479 --> 00:04:47.814
- The blessing is coming from. when jesus wants to do
- 00:04:47.880 --> 00:04:49.048
- When jesus wants to do something,
- 00:04:49.115 --> 00:04:49.515
- Something, he already knows how it's
- 00:04:49.582 --> 00:04:50.583
- He already knows how it's going to be done.
- 00:04:50.650 --> 00:04:51.584
- Going to be done. when jesus asks you to be
- 00:04:51.651 --> 00:04:53.486
- When jesus asks you to be a part of it,
- 00:04:53.553 --> 00:04:54.287
- A part of it, he's sending you an invitation
- 00:04:54.354 --> 00:04:56.322
- He's sending you an invitation to see if you have enough
- 00:04:56.389 --> 00:04:57.390
- To see if you have enough faith to trust in him.
- 00:04:57.457 --> 00:04:59.459
- Faith to trust in him. [right.]
- 00:04:59.525 --> 00:05:00.126
- [right.] it's a test.
- 00:05:00.193 --> 00:05:02.362
- It's a test. he's testing you to see
- 00:05:02.428 --> 00:05:03.529
- He's testing you to see if you'll apply what you've
- 00:05:03.596 --> 00:05:04.764
- If you'll apply what you've learned from his word.
- 00:05:04.831 --> 00:05:06.232
- Learned from his word. he wants to know if you
- 00:05:06.299 --> 00:05:07.700
- He wants to know if you understand where all of
- 00:05:07.767 --> 00:05:09.068
- Understand where all of your blessings come from,
- 00:05:09.135 --> 00:05:10.536
- Your blessings come from, because every good and perfect
- 00:05:10.603 --> 00:05:12.238
- Because every good and perfect gift comes from the lord.
- 00:05:12.305 --> 00:05:14.474
- Gift comes from the lord. [amen.]
- 00:05:14.540 --> 00:05:15.441
- [amen.] he's trying to find out
- 00:05:15.508 --> 00:05:16.376
- He's trying to find out from philip;
- 00:05:16.442 --> 00:05:16.909
- From philip; have you understood
- 00:05:16.976 --> 00:05:17.677
- Have you understood the supernatural power of
- 00:05:17.744 --> 00:05:19.045
- The supernatural power of the kingdom that you're a part
- 00:05:19.112 --> 00:05:20.146
- The kingdom that you're a part of or are you going to
- 00:05:20.213 --> 00:05:21.247
- Of or are you going to continue to face problems
- 00:05:21.314 --> 00:05:22.615
- Continue to face problems in your natural strength?
- 00:05:22.682 --> 00:05:25.651
- In your natural strength? it's a test.
- 00:05:25.718 --> 00:05:28.087
- It's a test. jesus gave us the answer
- 00:05:28.154 --> 00:05:29.822
- Jesus gave us the answer to the test.
- 00:05:29.889 --> 00:05:31.657
- To the test. he gave it to us in mark
- 00:05:31.724 --> 00:05:32.792
- He gave it to us in mark when he said these words,
- 00:05:32.859 --> 00:05:33.993
- When he said these words, "have faith in god."
- 00:05:34.060 --> 00:05:36.562
- "have faith in god." say that with me.
- 00:05:36.629 --> 00:05:37.563
- Say that with me. "have faith in god."
- 00:05:37.630 --> 00:05:40.466
- "have faith in god." "all things are possible
- 00:05:40.533 --> 00:05:42.702
- "all things are possible to those who believe,"
- 00:05:42.769 --> 00:05:44.237
- To those who believe," that's what jesus said
- 00:05:44.303 --> 00:05:45.605
- That's what jesus said whenever he told us to have
- 00:05:45.671 --> 00:05:46.873
- Whenever he told us to have faith in god.
- 00:05:46.939 --> 00:05:50.143
- Faith in god. philip hears this question.
- 00:05:50.209 --> 00:05:51.878
- Philip hears this question. it's a supernatural question.
- 00:05:51.944 --> 00:05:53.579
- It's a supernatural question. if he answers it
- 00:05:53.646 --> 00:05:54.480
- If he answers it supernaturally,
- 00:05:54.547 --> 00:05:55.448
- Supernaturally, he lives above
- 00:05:55.515 --> 00:05:56.282
- He lives above the circumstances.
- 00:05:56.349 --> 00:05:57.316
- The circumstances. but because he answers it
- 00:05:57.383 --> 00:05:58.451
- But because he answers it in his natural mind,
- 00:05:58.518 --> 00:05:59.819
- In his natural mind, he lives beneath
- 00:05:59.886 --> 00:06:00.787
- He lives beneath the circumstances.
- 00:06:00.853 --> 00:06:02.789
- The circumstances. as long as you live your life
- 00:06:02.855 --> 00:06:04.290
- As long as you live your life in your natural mind,
- 00:06:04.357 --> 00:06:05.425
- In your natural mind, you're always going to be
- 00:06:05.491 --> 00:06:06.626
- You're always going to be under the circumstances.
- 00:06:06.692 --> 00:06:08.227
- Under the circumstances. when you start to live it
- 00:06:08.294 --> 00:06:09.262
- When you start to live it in the supernatural power of
- 00:06:09.328 --> 00:06:10.797
- In the supernatural power of the kingdom of jesus christ,
- 00:06:10.863 --> 00:06:12.565
- The kingdom of jesus christ, suddenly you become the head
- 00:06:12.632 --> 00:06:14.567
- Suddenly you become the head and not the tail,
- 00:06:14.634 --> 00:06:15.635
- And not the tail, you become above
- 00:06:15.701 --> 00:06:16.803
- You become above and not beneath.
- 00:06:16.869 --> 00:06:17.937
- And not beneath. you find out what it means
- 00:06:18.004 --> 00:06:19.772
- You find out what it means to be more than a conqueror
- 00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:22.074
- To be more than a conqueror through christ.
- 00:06:22.141 --> 00:06:24.110
- Through christ. natural reasoning never
- 00:06:24.177 --> 00:06:25.912
- Natural reasoning never produces a supernatural
- 00:06:25.978 --> 00:06:27.413
- Produces a supernatural outcome.
- 00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:29.081
- Outcome. jesus asked philip,
- 00:06:29.148 --> 00:06:30.716
- Jesus asked philip, "where can we find bread?"
- 00:06:30.783 --> 00:06:33.352
- "where can we find bread?" in verse 7,
- 00:06:33.419 --> 00:06:34.187
- In verse 7, philip says,
- 00:06:34.253 --> 00:06:35.188
- Philip says, "two hundred denarii worth of
- 00:06:35.254 --> 00:06:36.756
- "two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient
- 00:06:36.823 --> 00:06:38.257
- Bread is not sufficient for them,
- 00:06:38.324 --> 00:06:38.858
- For them, for every one of them just
- 00:06:38.925 --> 00:06:40.226
- For every one of them just to have a little."
- 00:06:40.293 --> 00:06:43.162
- To have a little." in john 6,
- 00:06:43.229 --> 00:06:44.230
- In john 6, the conversation is just
- 00:06:44.297 --> 00:06:45.631
- The conversation is just between jesus and philip.
- 00:06:45.698 --> 00:06:46.833
- Between jesus and philip. but when you read the other
- 00:06:46.899 --> 00:06:47.800
- But when you read the other gospels,
- 00:06:47.867 --> 00:06:48.601
- Gospels, all 12 disciples were
- 00:06:48.668 --> 00:06:50.703
- All 12 disciples were involved.
- 00:06:50.770 --> 00:06:52.138
- Involved. mark 6,
- 00:06:52.205 --> 00:06:53.072
- Mark 6, it says that his disciples
- 00:06:53.139 --> 00:06:54.907
- It says that his disciples came to him,
- 00:06:54.974 --> 00:06:55.942
- Came to him, and they said to him,
- 00:06:56.008 --> 00:06:57.009
- And they said to him, "send them away."
- 00:06:57.076 --> 00:06:59.345
- "send them away." isn't that just like some
- 00:06:59.412 --> 00:07:00.346
- Isn't that just like some churches?
- 00:07:00.413 --> 00:07:00.880
- Churches? just about the time new people
- 00:07:00.947 --> 00:07:02.081
- Just about the time new people start to show up, you say,
- 00:07:02.148 --> 00:07:03.115
- Start to show up, you say, "send them away."
- 00:07:03.182 --> 00:07:06.385
- "send them away." now they said it
- 00:07:06.452 --> 00:07:07.253
- Now they said it in a very kind way.
- 00:07:07.320 --> 00:07:09.155
- In a very kind way. "send them away that they
- 00:07:09.222 --> 00:07:10.490
- "send them away that they may go and buy bread
- 00:07:10.556 --> 00:07:12.391
- May go and buy bread for themselves."
- 00:07:12.458 --> 00:07:14.360
- For themselves." in mark 6,
- 00:07:14.427 --> 00:07:14.961
- In mark 6, jesus looked back at
- 00:07:15.027 --> 00:07:15.761
- Jesus looked back at the disciples and said,
- 00:07:15.828 --> 00:07:16.596
- The disciples and said, "you feed them."
- 00:07:16.662 --> 00:07:19.732
- "you feed them." all 12 were pointing to
- 00:07:19.799 --> 00:07:21.767
- All 12 were pointing to a natural problem
- 00:07:21.834 --> 00:07:23.069
- A natural problem and they wanted to provide
- 00:07:23.135 --> 00:07:24.103
- And they wanted to provide a natural solution.
- 00:07:24.170 --> 00:07:26.439
- A natural solution. they said,
- 00:07:26.506 --> 00:07:26.772
- They said, "hey jesus,
- 00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:27.440
- "hey jesus, if you'll just tell them,
- 00:07:27.507 --> 00:07:28.241
- If you'll just tell them, 'raise your hand
- 00:07:28.307 --> 00:07:28.875
- 'raise your hand for the blessing,'
- 00:07:28.941 --> 00:07:29.542
- For the blessing,' this will be over
- 00:07:29.609 --> 00:07:30.309
- This will be over and they can go have brunch."
- 00:07:30.376 --> 00:07:32.478
- And they can go have brunch." (laughter)
- 00:07:32.545 --> 00:07:34.647
- (laughter) in john 6,
- 00:07:34.714 --> 00:07:35.515
- In john 6, philip gives a number,
- 00:07:35.581 --> 00:07:36.649
- Philip gives a number, "two hundred denarii."
- 00:07:36.716 --> 00:07:37.617
- "two hundred denarii." that's six month's worth of
- 00:07:37.683 --> 00:07:38.918
- That's six month's worth of wages.
- 00:07:38.985 --> 00:07:39.986
- Wages. he says,
- 00:07:40.052 --> 00:07:40.419
- He says, we've got half a year's worth
- 00:07:40.486 --> 00:07:41.921
- We've got half a year's worth of money and we still can't
- 00:07:41.988 --> 00:07:43.489
- Of money and we still can't afford dinner on the grounds.
- 00:07:43.556 --> 00:07:45.892
- Afford dinner on the grounds. (laughter)
- 00:07:45.958 --> 00:07:47.927
- (laughter) now how do you know all of
- 00:07:47.994 --> 00:07:48.828
- Now how do you know all of the disciples were involved?
- 00:07:48.895 --> 00:07:50.096
- The disciples were involved? philip doesn't hold
- 00:07:50.162 --> 00:07:51.097
- Philip doesn't hold the money bag;
- 00:07:51.163 --> 00:07:51.664
- The money bag; judas does.
- 00:07:51.731 --> 00:07:54.100
- Judas does. so when jesus asked philip,
- 00:07:54.166 --> 00:07:56.002
- So when jesus asked philip, "where can we buy bread?"
- 00:07:56.068 --> 00:07:57.403
- "where can we buy bread?" philip runs to judas.
- 00:07:57.470 --> 00:07:58.404
- Philip runs to judas. he says, "hey judie,
- 00:07:58.471 --> 00:07:59.939
- He says, "hey judie, i was just in the boss's
- 00:08:00.006 --> 00:08:00.706
- I was just in the boss's office and he wants to have
- 00:08:00.773 --> 00:08:03.075
- Office and he wants to have kind of like a big banquet
- 00:08:03.142 --> 00:08:04.210
- Kind of like a big banquet sort of thing.
- 00:08:04.277 --> 00:08:04.710
- Sort of thing. how much money we got?"
- 00:08:04.777 --> 00:08:06.946
- How much money we got?" judas goes,
- 00:08:07.013 --> 00:08:07.380
- Judas goes, "two hundred denarii."
- 00:08:07.446 --> 00:08:08.648
- "two hundred denarii." philip runs back and says,
- 00:08:08.714 --> 00:08:09.282
- Philip runs back and says, "yeah, sorry.
- 00:08:09.348 --> 00:08:10.082
- "yeah, sorry. we're going to have to put
- 00:08:10.149 --> 00:08:10.783
- We're going to have to put that before the elders for
- 00:08:10.850 --> 00:08:11.751
- That before the elders for a vote for next year's budget,
- 00:08:11.817 --> 00:08:13.619
- A vote for next year's budget, because that's just not going
- 00:08:13.686 --> 00:08:14.720
- Because that's just not going to happen."
- 00:08:14.787 --> 00:08:15.988
- To happen." (laughter)
- 00:08:16.055 --> 00:08:19.358
- (laughter) the problem is philip is
- 00:08:19.425 --> 00:08:20.259
- The problem is philip is answering the wrong question.
- 00:08:20.326 --> 00:08:22.962
- Answering the wrong question. jesus is asking about bread,
- 00:08:23.029 --> 00:08:24.764
- Jesus is asking about bread, and philip is talking about
- 00:08:24.830 --> 00:08:25.831
- And philip is talking about money.
- 00:08:25.898 --> 00:08:27.733
- Money. how often are we invited
- 00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:29.268
- How often are we invited to participate in
- 00:08:29.335 --> 00:08:30.202
- To participate in the supernatural outpouring
- 00:08:30.269 --> 00:08:31.571
- The supernatural outpouring of god's power,
- 00:08:31.637 --> 00:08:32.972
- Of god's power, and immediately,
- 00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:33.906
- And immediately, we use our natural reasoning
- 00:08:33.973 --> 00:08:35.808
- We use our natural reasoning to talk ourselves out of
- 00:08:35.875 --> 00:08:37.009
- To talk ourselves out of a miracle?
- 00:08:37.076 --> 00:08:38.978
- A miracle? the lord asks you to do
- 00:08:39.045 --> 00:08:40.212
- The lord asks you to do something for him.
- 00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:42.248
- Something for him. you feel compelled that
- 00:08:42.315 --> 00:08:43.783
- You feel compelled that the lord wants you to serve
- 00:08:43.849 --> 00:08:45.284
- The lord wants you to serve in church,
- 00:08:45.351 --> 00:08:46.118
- In church, and as soon as you have
- 00:08:46.185 --> 00:08:47.053
- And as soon as you have that feeling,
- 00:08:47.119 --> 00:08:48.020
- That feeling, you know the holy spirit
- 00:08:48.087 --> 00:08:49.255
- You know the holy spirit is inviting you into
- 00:08:49.322 --> 00:08:50.423
- Is inviting you into a miracle moment.
- 00:08:50.489 --> 00:08:51.457
- A miracle moment. and suddenly you come back
- 00:08:51.524 --> 00:08:52.725
- And suddenly you come back with your natural answer,
- 00:08:52.792 --> 00:08:53.859
- With your natural answer, "well, well, i'm sorry.
- 00:08:53.926 --> 00:08:54.961
- "well, well, i'm sorry. i would, sir,
- 00:08:55.027 --> 00:08:55.695
- I would, sir, but i just don't have any free
- 00:08:55.761 --> 00:08:56.896
- But i just don't have any free time.
- 00:08:56.963 --> 00:08:57.363
- Time. i mean, between my work,
- 00:08:57.430 --> 00:08:58.164
- I mean, between my work, and my kids,
- 00:08:58.230 --> 00:08:58.764
- And my kids, and my sports tournaments on
- 00:08:58.831 --> 00:09:00.032
- And my sports tournaments on sunday that keep me out of
- 00:09:00.099 --> 00:09:01.400
- Sunday that keep me out of church,
- 00:09:01.467 --> 00:09:01.901
- Church, there's just not a lot of time
- 00:09:01.968 --> 00:09:02.868
- There's just not a lot of time for me to be involved.
- 00:09:02.935 --> 00:09:04.370
- For me to be involved. until you get over
- 00:09:04.437 --> 00:09:05.071
- Until you get over your natural reasons why
- 00:09:05.137 --> 00:09:06.439
- Your natural reasons why it can't be done,
- 00:09:06.505 --> 00:09:07.640
- It can't be done, you're never going see all
- 00:09:07.707 --> 00:09:09.075
- You're never going see all that god can do when you're
- 00:09:09.141 --> 00:09:11.043
- That god can do when you're willing to trust in him.
- 00:09:11.110 --> 00:09:13.379
- Willing to trust in him. and this is where we come to
- 00:09:13.446 --> 00:09:14.513
- And this is where we come to the picture of perfect faith.
- 00:09:14.580 --> 00:09:16.949
- The picture of perfect faith. i choose john 6 to tell this
- 00:09:17.016 --> 00:09:19.318
- I choose john 6 to tell this story today because john is
- 00:09:19.385 --> 00:09:21.520
- Story today because john is the only writer who tells us
- 00:09:21.587 --> 00:09:23.422
- The only writer who tells us where the food came from.
- 00:09:23.489 --> 00:09:26.325
- Where the food came from. in verse 9,

- In every other gospel, it leaves the boy out probably
- 00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:36.469
- It leaves the boy out probably because the disciples were
- 00:09:36.535 --> 00:09:37.403
- Because the disciples were fighting over who found
- 00:09:37.470 --> 00:09:38.437

- "so the men sat down." now no words are lost
- 00:16:04.923 --> 00:16:06.392
- Now no words are lost in scripture.
- 00:16:06.458 --> 00:16:07.292
- In scripture. why was it important to point
- 00:16:07.359 --> 00:16:09.128
- Why was it important to point out that the men sat down?
- 00:16:09.194 --> 00:16:13.565
- Out that the men sat down? first,
- 00:16:13.632 --> 00:16:14.066
- First, let's look at the natural
- 00:16:14.133 --> 00:16:14.767
- Let's look at the natural situation,
- 00:16:14.833 --> 00:16:16.101
- Situation, fifteen to twenty thousand
- 00:16:16.168 --> 00:16:17.636
- Fifteen to twenty thousand people.
- 00:16:17.703 --> 00:16:18.937
- People. the bible says there's
- 00:16:19.004 --> 00:16:19.671
- The bible says there's much grass there.
- 00:16:19.738 --> 00:16:20.906
- Much grass there. that is an understatement.
- 00:16:20.973 --> 00:16:23.409

- 00:16:23.475 --> 00:16:24.476
- Fifteen to twenty thousand people,
- 00:16:24.543 --> 00:16:25.177
- People, giving them each a radius of
- 00:16:25.244 --> 00:16:27.146
- Giving them each a radius of 13-square feet,
- 00:16:27.212 --> 00:16:28.547
- 13-square feet, which would be to take your
- 00:16:28.614 --> 00:16:29.681
- Which would be to take your arms and extend them and turn
- 00:16:29.748 --> 00:16:31.784
- Arms and extend them and turn one full rotation.
- 00:16:31.850 --> 00:16:33.018
- One full rotation. that gives you enough space
- 00:16:33.085 --> 00:16:34.553
- That gives you enough space and other people enough space
- 00:16:34.620 --> 00:16:35.954
- And other people enough space to be seated next to
- 00:16:36.021 --> 00:16:36.989
- To be seated next to each other.
- 00:16:37.056 --> 00:16:37.990
- Each other. if you do that 15,000 times,
- 00:16:38.057 --> 00:16:40.793
- If you do that 15,000 times, it took six acres of grass for
- 00:16:40.859 --> 00:16:43.095
- It took six acres of grass for these people to have a picnic.
- 00:16:43.162 --> 00:16:46.365
- These people to have a picnic. that's a big venue.
- 00:16:46.432 --> 00:16:49.568
- That's a big venue. where are all of the waiters
- 00:16:49.635 --> 00:16:50.736
- Where are all of the waiters going to come from?
- 00:16:50.803 --> 00:16:53.405
- Going to come from? the men were intended to serve
- 00:16:53.472 --> 00:16:56.308

- The church. why?
- 00:17:03.282 --> 00:17:03.615
- Why? because the bible says that
- 00:17:03.682 --> 00:17:04.850
- Because the bible says that the lord is the head of
- 00:17:04.917 --> 00:17:06.018

- 00:17:06.085 --> 00:17:07.719

- Why is our economy so far out of order?
- 00:19:12.277 --> 00:19:12.945
