 - For his word. so i'm so excited about

 - So i'm so excited about the bible because every time,
 - 00:01:36.915 --> 00:01:38.116
 - The bible because every time, you know,
 - 00:01:38.183 --> 00:01:38.884
 - You know, i get into the word of god,
 - 00:01:38.951 --> 00:01:40.085
 - I get into the word of god, i'm seeing new things,
 - 00:01:40.152 --> 00:01:41.620
 - I'm seeing new things, and god is opening my eyes.
 - 00:01:41.687 --> 00:01:43.655
 - And god is opening my eyes. and after all these years,
 - 00:01:43.722 --> 00:01:45.057
 - And after all these years, you know,
 - 00:01:45.123 --> 00:01:45.757
 - You know, like you look at passages
 - 00:01:45.824 --> 00:01:46.725
 - Like you look at passages that you are familiar with
 - 00:01:46.792 --> 00:01:47.826
 - That you are familiar with and you thought you know them,
 - 00:01:47.893 --> 00:01:49.328
 - And you thought you know them, but all of a sudden,
 - 00:01:49.394 --> 00:01:50.262
 - But all of a sudden, god opened my eyes
 - 00:01:50.329 --> 00:01:51.163
 - God opened my eyes and i began to see things
 - 00:01:51.230 --> 00:01:52.297
 - And i began to see things that i'd never seen before,
 - 00:01:52.364 --> 00:01:54.099
 - That i'd never seen before, and some of these things
 - 00:01:54.166 --> 00:01:54.766
 - And some of these things i'll be sharing with you today.
 - 00:01:54.833 --> 00:01:55.968
 - I'll be sharing with you today. but god's word
 - 00:01:56.034 --> 00:01:56.635
 - But god's word is what gives us life.
 - 00:01:56.702 --> 00:01:59.404
 - Is what gives us life. the bible says, "being born
 - 00:01:59.471 --> 00:02:00.772
 - The bible says, "being born again, not of corruptible seed,
 - 00:02:00.839 --> 00:02:03.442
 - Again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible,
 - 00:02:03.508 --> 00:02:05.143
 - But of incorruptible, even by the word of god,
 - 00:02:05.210 --> 00:02:06.378
 - Even by the word of god, which lives and abides forever."
 - 00:02:06.445 --> 00:02:08.280
 - Which lives and abides forever." think of that,
 - 00:02:08.347 --> 00:02:09.081
 - Think of that, there's corruptible seed
 - 00:02:09.147 --> 00:02:10.249
 - There's corruptible seed and there's incorruptible seed.
 - 00:02:10.315 --> 00:02:12.484
 - And there's incorruptible seed. we are born again
 - 00:02:12.551 --> 00:02:13.552
 - We are born again of incorruptible seed,
 - 00:02:13.619 --> 00:02:15.554
 - Of incorruptible seed, god's word, amen?
 - 00:02:15.621 --> 00:02:17.522
 - God's word, amen? so if you live by god's word,
 - 00:02:17.589 --> 00:02:18.924
 - So if you live by god's word, and guess what jesus said?
 - 00:02:18.991 --> 00:02:20.559
 - And guess what jesus said? jesus said, "man shall not
 - 00:02:20.626 --> 00:02:21.893
 - Jesus said, "man shall not live by bread alone, but by
 - 00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:24.029
 - Live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth
 - 00:02:24.096 --> 00:02:25.931
 - Every word that proceedeth from the mouth of god."
 - 00:02:25.998 --> 00:02:27.699
 - From the mouth of god." when you think about it, we know
 - 00:02:27.766 --> 00:02:29.368
 - When you think about it, we know that we can't live without food.
 - 00:02:29.434 --> 00:02:31.870
 - That we can't live without food. but by the same token,
 - 00:02:31.937 --> 00:02:33.338
 - But by the same token, jesus is saying that all the
 - 00:02:33.405 --> 00:02:35.374
 - Jesus is saying that all the more, you cannot live
 - 00:02:35.440 --> 00:02:38.010
 - More, you cannot live without the word of god.
 - 00:02:38.076 --> 00:02:40.245
 - Without the word of god. friend, the word of god
 - 00:02:40.312 --> 00:02:41.413
 - Friend, the word of god is what gives us life
 - 00:02:41.480 --> 00:02:42.881
 - Is what gives us life in the very beginning.
 - 00:02:42.948 --> 00:02:44.082
 - In the very beginning. when god made man, god made man
 - 00:02:44.149 --> 00:02:46.118
 - From the dust of the ground.
 - 00:02:46.184 --> 00:02:48.754
 - From the dust of the ground. but man was like a mannequin,
 - 00:02:48.820 --> 00:02:51.623
 - But man was like a mannequin, you know, he has form, he has
 - 00:02:51.690 --> 00:02:53.325
 - You know, he has form, he has all the features, but lifeless.
 - 00:02:53.392 --> 00:02:57.696
 - All the features, but lifeless. so which part of man was it?
 - 00:02:57.763 --> 00:03:00.499
 - So which part of man was it? when god breathed into man,
 - 00:03:00.565 --> 00:03:02.467
 - When god breathed into man, what brought that life?
 - 00:03:02.534 --> 00:03:03.635
 - What brought that life? it was the breath of god.
 - 00:03:03.702 --> 00:03:06.104
 - It was the breath of god. the breath of god
 - 00:03:06.171 --> 00:03:08.073
 - The breath of god gave life to man in his spirit
 - 00:03:08.140 --> 00:03:11.443
 - Gave life to man in his spirit and then permeates in his soul
 - 00:03:11.510 --> 00:03:13.712
 - And then permeates in his soul and then life to his body.
 - 00:03:13.779 --> 00:03:15.514
 - And then life to his body. and every time i find that
 - 00:03:15.580 --> 00:03:17.316
 - And every time i find that i spend time in the word of god,
 - 00:03:17.382 --> 00:03:18.984
 - I spend time in the word of god, you know, and i have a time
 - 00:03:19.051 --> 00:03:20.519
 - You know, and i have a time of revelation in the word of god
 - 00:03:20.585 --> 00:03:24.022
 - Of revelation in the word of god and communing with the lord,
 - 00:03:24.089 --> 00:03:25.424
 - And communing with the lord, i always stand up
 - 00:03:25.490 --> 00:03:26.892
 - I always stand up and i go out with joy.
 - 00:03:26.958 --> 00:03:29.461
 - And i go out with joy. in fact, the bible says
 - 00:03:29.528 --> 00:03:30.295
 - In fact, the bible says in isaiah 55, god says,
 - 00:03:30.362 --> 00:03:32.497
 - In isaiah 55, god says, "my word"--god's word
 - 00:03:32.564 --> 00:03:33.899
 - "my word"--god's word is so concentrated in heaven.
 - 00:03:33.965 --> 00:03:36.101
 - For us to receive it like that,
 - 00:03:36.168 --> 00:03:37.302
 - For us to receive it like that, you know, god's wisdom
 - 00:03:37.369 --> 00:03:38.003
 - You know, god's wisdom is beyond us.
 - 00:03:38.070 --> 00:03:38.804
 - Is beyond us. so god says, my wisdom--"my ways
 - 00:03:38.870 --> 00:03:40.706
 - So god says, my wisdom--"my ways are higher than your ways,
 - 00:03:40.772 --> 00:03:42.307
 - Are higher than your ways, and my thoughts
 - 00:03:42.374 --> 00:03:43.241
 - And my thoughts than your thoughts."
 - 00:03:43.308 --> 00:03:44.443
 - Than your thoughts." but then he says this
 - 00:03:44.509 --> 00:03:45.110
 - But then he says this in isaiah 55,
 - 00:03:45.177 --> 00:03:47.112
 - "for as the rain comes down,
 - 00:03:47.179 --> 00:03:48.747
 - And the snow from heaven,
 - 00:03:48.814 --> 00:03:50.349
 - And do not return there."
 - 00:03:50.415 --> 00:03:52.017
 - Now, notice the verse before
 - 00:03:52.084 --> 00:03:53.118
 - This tells us that his thoughts
 - 00:03:53.185 --> 00:03:55.120
 - Are beyond our thoughts,
 - 00:03:55.187 --> 00:03:56.455
 - His ways, higher than our ways.
 - 00:03:56.521 --> 00:03:58.323
 - It's like concentrated wisdom,
 - 00:03:58.390 --> 00:04:00.125
 - We are not able to digest it, we
 - 00:04:00.192 --> 00:04:02.027
 - Are not able to assimilate it,
 - 00:04:02.094 --> 00:04:04.262
 - We are not able
 - 00:04:04.329 --> 00:04:04.796
 - To understand it.
 - 00:04:04.863 --> 00:04:06.164
 - But god is so kind,
 - 00:04:06.231 --> 00:04:07.999
 - God is so good
 - 00:04:08.066 --> 00:04:09.501
 - That he allows his wisdom
 - 00:04:09.568 --> 00:04:11.136
 - To come like rain,
 - 00:04:11.203 --> 00:04:13.372
 - Rain comes down.
 - 00:04:13.438 --> 00:04:14.139
 - Friend, if rain comes down,
 - 00:04:14.206 --> 00:04:16.475
 - If it--you know, let's say rain
 - 00:04:16.541 --> 00:04:17.743
 - If it--you know, let's say rain has been coming down
 - 00:04:17.809 --> 00:04:18.510
 - Has been coming down for about the last four hours.
 - 00:04:18.577 --> 00:04:20.412
 - For about the last four hours. now, imagine taking all that
 - 00:04:20.479 --> 00:04:22.247
 - Now, imagine taking all that water, all that rain, you know,
 - 00:04:22.314 --> 00:04:24.583
 - Water, all that rain, you know, can you imagine how many tons
 - 00:04:24.649 --> 00:04:26.618
 - Can you imagine how many tons of rain that is?
 - 00:04:26.685 --> 00:04:28.320
 - Of rain that is? and if you let all that rain
 - 00:04:28.387 --> 00:04:29.654
 - And if you let all that rain fall one splat,
 - 00:04:29.721 --> 00:04:31.390
 - Fall one splat, just splash like that, without
 - 00:04:31.456 --> 00:04:33.291
 - Just splash like that, without breaking--making it drop
 - 00:04:33.358 --> 00:04:34.559
 - Breaking--making it drop into--in droplets,
 - 00:04:34.626 --> 00:04:36.795
 - Into--in droplets, you know, it will destroy
 - 00:04:36.862 --> 00:04:38.296
 - You know, it will destroy things on the earth.
 - 00:04:38.363 --> 00:04:40.499
 - Things on the earth. but the same amount of rain
 - 00:04:40.565 --> 00:04:42.567
 - But the same amount of rain falling and mixing with the dust
 - 00:04:42.634 --> 00:04:45.137
 - Falling and mixing with the dust and the particles of the air
 - 00:04:45.203 --> 00:04:46.338
 - And the particles of the air and god allow it to become rain
 - 00:04:46.405 --> 00:04:48.306
 - And god allow it to become rain or snow, now when it falls
 - 00:04:48.373 --> 00:04:50.509
 - Or snow, now when it falls even on the smallest flower,
 - 00:04:50.575 --> 00:04:52.344
 - Even on the smallest flower, it refreshes that flower,
 - 00:04:52.411 --> 00:04:54.746
 - It refreshes that flower, it reinvigorates that flower, it
 - 00:04:54.813 --> 00:04:57.048
 - It reinvigorates that flower, it is nourishment to that flower,
 - 00:04:57.115 --> 00:04:59.684
 - Is nourishment to that flower, amen, it doesn't hurt.
 - 00:04:59.751 --> 00:05:01.086
 - Amen, it doesn't hurt. so that's what god's wisdom
 - 00:05:01.153 --> 00:05:02.120
 - So that's what god's wisdom comes.
 - 00:05:02.187 --> 00:05:03.188
 - Comes. if it's all concentrated,
 - 00:05:03.255 --> 00:05:04.122
 - If it's all concentrated, we can't take it, all right?
 - 00:05:04.189 --> 00:05:05.424
 - We can't take it, all right? but god allows it to come
 - 00:05:05.490 --> 00:05:06.858

 - 00:05:11.129 --> 00:05:12.798
 - "for as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,
 - 00:05:12.864 --> 00:05:14.199
 - And the snow from heaven, and do not return there,
 - 00:05:14.266 --> 00:05:15.634
 - And do not return there, but water the earth,
 - 00:05:15.700 --> 00:05:16.735
 - But water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud,
 - 00:05:16.802 --> 00:05:18.570
 - And make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed
 - 00:05:18.637 --> 00:05:19.871
 - That it may give seed to the sower
 - 00:05:19.938 --> 00:05:20.839
 - To the sower and bread to the eater."
 - 00:05:20.906 --> 00:05:23.241
 - And bread to the eater." "seed to the sower
 - 00:05:23.308 --> 00:05:24.276
 - "seed to the sower and bread to the eater,"
 - 00:05:24.342 --> 00:05:25.410
 - And bread to the eater," so it says, "so shall my word

 - 00:05:26.478 --> 00:05:27.512
 - Be that goes forth from my mouth;
 - 00:05:27.579 --> 00:05:28.914
 - From my mouth; it shall not return to me void,
 - 00:05:28.980 --> 00:05:31.550
 - It shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish
 - 00:05:31.616 --> 00:05:32.417
 - But it shall accomplish what i please,
 - 00:05:32.484 --> 00:05:33.852

 - And it shall prosper in the thing for which i sent it."
 - 00:05:35.921 --> 00:05:37.322
 - The thing for which i sent it." so god's word comes down,
 - 00:05:37.389 --> 00:05:38.657
 - So god's word comes down, listen, just like the snow
 - 00:05:38.723 --> 00:05:41.426

 - 00:05:41.493 --> 00:05:44.262
 - And the rain will cause the seed to sprout, to become fruitful,
 - 00:05:44.329 --> 00:05:48.567
 - To sprout, to become fruitful, right, god's word tells us,
 - 00:05:48.633 --> 00:05:50.268
 - Right, god's word tells us, "my word is the same,

 - It will not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish

 - The word is likened to a seed, it will always reproduce itself.
 - 00:06:22.934 --> 00:06:25.704

 - To his disciples, the reason i didn't share with them openly
 - 00:09:55.947 --> 00:09:57.982
 - I didn't share with them openly but in parables is because
 - 00:09:58.049 --> 00:09:59.350
 - But in parables is because this truth is so precious,
 - 00:09:59.417 --> 00:10:01.186
 - This truth is so precious, about the kingdom of heaven,
 - 00:10:01.252 --> 00:10:02.420
 - About the kingdom of heaven, how it operates,
 - 00:10:02.487 --> 00:10:03.521
 - How it operates, i don't want the people
 - 00:10:03.588 --> 00:10:04.556
 - I don't want the people who don't treasure it
 - 00:10:04.622 --> 00:10:06.424
 - Who don't treasure it to receive it.
 - 00:10:06.491 --> 00:10:07.592
 - To receive it. i want people who are hungry
 - 00:10:07.659 --> 00:10:09.494
 - I want people who are hungry and whose hearts are towards me
 - 00:10:09.561 --> 00:10:11.863
 - And whose hearts are towards me to receive it.
 - 00:10:11.930 --> 00:10:12.931
 - To receive it. let's read this parable.
 - 00:10:12.997 --> 00:10:14.566
 - Let's read this parable. "and he said, 'the kingdom
 - 00:10:14.632 --> 00:10:16.134
 - "and he said, 'the kingdom of god is as if a man should
 - 00:10:16.201 --> 00:10:18.069
 - Of god is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground,
 - 00:10:18.136 --> 00:10:20.038
 - Scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night
 - 00:10:20.105 --> 00:10:22.107
 - And should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed
 - 00:10:22.173 --> 00:10:24.642
 - And rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow,
 - 00:10:24.709 --> 00:10:27.545
 - Should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how.'"
 - 00:10:27.612 --> 00:10:30.081
 - He himself does not know how.'" i like this, "he himself does
 - 00:10:30.148 --> 00:10:31.750
 - I like this, "he himself does not know how."
 - 00:10:31.816 --> 00:10:33.651
 - Not know how." so this man scatters seed on
 - 00:10:33.718 --> 00:10:34.919
 - So this man scatters seed on the ground and he goes to sleep
 - 00:10:34.986 --> 00:10:36.688
 - The ground and he goes to sleep by night and rise by day.
 - 00:10:36.755 --> 00:10:39.057
 - By night and rise by day. in other words, he just lives
 - 00:10:39.124 --> 00:10:40.225
 - In other words, he just lives his normal life, "and the seed
 - 00:10:40.291 --> 00:10:42.393
 - His normal life, "and the seed should sprout and grow, he
 - 00:10:42.460 --> 00:10:44.796
 - Should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how."
 - 00:10:44.863 --> 00:10:46.731
 - Himself does not know how." so the ground, we've
 - 00:10:46.798 --> 00:10:47.465
 - So the ground, we've established, jesus himself said
 - 00:10:47.532 --> 00:10:48.900
 - Established, jesus himself said the ground is our hearts.
 - 00:10:48.967 --> 00:10:50.702
 - The ground is our hearts. in other words, as you are
 - 00:10:50.769 --> 00:10:51.903
 - In other words, as you are listening to god's word--and
 - 00:10:51.970 --> 00:10:52.904

 - By hearing. it's not just hearing audibly
 - 00:11:03.848 --> 00:11:05.216
 - It's not just hearing audibly from outside, as you are
 - 00:11:05.283 --> 00:11:06.151
 - From outside, as you are reading, you are also receiving.
 - 00:11:06.217 --> 00:11:07.685

 - Who don't like to read, they find their concentration
 - 00:11:23.568 --> 00:11:24.769
 - They find their concentration is not there, but they'd rather
 - 00:11:24.836 --> 00:11:27.038
 - Is not there, but they'd rather listen on-the-go.
 - 00:11:27.105 --> 00:11:28.807

 - 00:11:28.873 --> 00:11:29.841
 - As they are doing things, you know, they are listening

 - That way. friend, how about prioritizing
 - 00:11:33.812 --> 00:11:35.380
 - Friend, how about prioritizing god's word?
 - 00:11:35.446 --> 00:11:36.981
 - God's word? prioritize god's word,
 - 00:11:37.048 --> 00:11:38.516
 - Prioritize god's word, just listen to god's word.
 - 00:11:38.583 --> 00:11:40.185
 - Just listen to god's word. if you're not the reading type,
 - 00:11:40.251 --> 00:11:41.853
 - If you're not the reading type, all right, listen to god's word.
 - 00:11:41.920 --> 00:11:43.221
 - All right, listen to god's word. if you are sick in your body,
 - 00:11:43.288 --> 00:11:44.856
 - If you are sick in your body, it's not enough to say, okay,
 - 00:11:44.923 --> 00:11:45.990
 - It's not enough to say, okay, i'm just going to take
 - 00:11:46.057 --> 00:11:47.058
 - I'm just going to take communion, right,
 - 00:11:47.125 --> 00:11:48.793
 - Communion, right, that's how i know
 - 00:11:48.860 --> 00:11:49.761
 - That's how i know i'll be healed.
 - 00:11:49.828 --> 00:11:50.962
 - I'll be healed. yes, friend, but you need the
 - 00:11:51.029 --> 00:11:52.330
 - Yes, friend, but you need the word about communion, you
 - 00:11:52.397 --> 00:11:54.132
 - Word about communion, you need--you know, it's not just
 - 00:11:54.199 --> 00:11:55.466
 - Need--you know, it's not just a--it's not a magical formula,
 - 00:11:55.533 --> 00:11:57.936
 - A--it's not a magical formula, friend, it is actually
 - 00:11:58.002 --> 00:11:58.903
 - Friend, it is actually a revelation.
 - 00:11:58.970 --> 00:11:59.838
 - A revelation. this is a time of communion with
 - 00:11:59.904 --> 00:12:01.272
 - This is a time of communion with the lord, having that revelation
 - 00:12:01.339 --> 00:12:03.575
 - The lord, having that revelation where, you know, you see what he
 - 00:12:03.641 --> 00:12:05.343
 - Where, you know, you see what he has done for you, you love him,
 - 00:12:05.410 --> 00:12:07.579
 - Has done for you, you love him, and then you receive from him,
 - 00:12:07.645 --> 00:12:09.013
 - And then you receive from him, hallelujah,
 - 00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:09.814
 - Hallelujah, and that can only come about
 - 00:12:09.881 --> 00:12:10.615
 - And that can only come about as you get fresh revelation.
 - 00:12:10.682 --> 00:12:12.217
 - As you get fresh revelation. even though you knew it before,
 - 00:12:12.283 --> 00:12:14.552
 - Even though you knew it before, you need a fresh revelation.
 - 00:12:14.619 --> 00:12:16.588
 - You need a fresh revelation. every time, amen, you come
 - 00:12:16.654 --> 00:12:18.022
 - Every time, amen, you come to the word of god, you start
 - 00:12:18.089 --> 00:12:19.490
 - To the word of god, you start telling yourself--that's why
 - 00:12:19.557 --> 00:12:20.992
 - Telling yourself--that's why meditation is so important.
 - 00:12:21.059 --> 00:12:22.126
 - Meditation is so important. keep on mulling over god's word.
 - 00:12:22.193 --> 00:12:24.195
 - Keep on mulling over god's word. keep on musing over god's word.
 - 00:12:24.262 --> 00:12:26.664
 - Keep on musing over god's word. keep on revolving god's word
 - 00:12:26.731 --> 00:12:27.966
 - Keep on revolving god's word in your mind day and night.
 - 00:12:28.032 --> 00:12:30.768
 - And the bible says,
 - 00:12:30.835 --> 00:12:31.870
 - And the bible says, the one who does that,
 - 00:12:31.936 --> 00:12:33.471
 - The one who does that, whatever he does shall prosper.
 - 00:12:33.538 --> 00:12:35.673
 - Whatever he does shall prosper. not only that,
 - 00:12:35.740 --> 00:12:36.641
 - Not only that, his leaf will always be green.
 - 00:12:36.708 --> 00:12:38.409
 - His leaf will always be green. in other words, he's evergreen,
 - 00:12:38.476 --> 00:12:40.278
 - In other words, he's evergreen, he's always young,
 - 00:12:40.345 --> 00:12:41.579
 - He's always young, he's always vigorous.
 - 00:12:41.646 --> 00:12:43.181
 - He's always vigorous. he's always fresh,
 - 00:12:43.248 --> 00:12:44.549
 - He's always fresh, even in his old age.
 - 00:12:44.616 --> 00:12:46.150
 - Even in his old age. "and whatever he does"--
 - 00:12:46.217 --> 00:12:47.352
 - "and whatever he does"-- i like that,
 - 00:12:47.418 --> 00:12:48.119
 - I like that, "whatever he does prospers,"
 - 00:12:48.186 --> 00:12:50.221
 - "whatever he does prospers," and the promise is what?
 - 00:12:50.288 --> 00:12:51.422
 - And the promise is what? the one who meditates, the one
 - 00:12:51.489 --> 00:12:53.591
 - The one who meditates, the one who meditates on god's word.
 - 00:12:53.658 --> 00:12:54.993
 - Who meditates on god's word. because meditation
 - 00:12:55.059 --> 00:12:55.827
 - Because meditation is actually causing yourself
 - 00:12:55.894 --> 00:12:57.295
 - Is actually causing yourself to hear the word again.
 - 00:12:57.362 --> 00:12:59.297
 - To hear the word again. when you meditate,
 - 00:12:59.364 --> 00:13:00.832
 - When you meditate, you hear the word again
 - 00:13:00.899 --> 00:13:02.567
 - You hear the word again and again, hallelujah.
 - 00:13:02.634 --> 00:13:05.436
 - And again, hallelujah. another way is to listen
 - 00:13:05.503 --> 00:13:06.371
 - Another way is to listen to preaching, good preaching.
 - 00:13:06.437 --> 00:13:08.573
 - Make sure the preaching
 - 00:13:08.640 --> 00:13:09.274
 - Make sure the preaching is on the word of god.
 - 00:13:09.340 --> 00:13:10.742
 - Is on the word of god. and as you are receiving the
 - 00:13:10.808 --> 00:13:11.576
 - And as you are receiving the preaching, you understand it,
 - 00:13:11.643 --> 00:13:13.845
 - Preaching, you understand it, guess what?
 - 00:13:13.912 --> 00:13:14.712
 - Guess what? it will grow.
 - 00:13:14.779 --> 00:13:15.546
 - It will grow. but this parable here that jesus
 - 00:13:15.613 --> 00:13:16.681
 - But this parable here that jesus is sharing is about a man who
 - 00:13:16.748 --> 00:13:18.716
 - Is hearing, and he is actually
 - 00:13:18.783 --> 00:13:20.785
 - Is hearing, and he is actually speaking or reading
 - 00:13:20.852 --> 00:13:21.786
 - Speaking or reading the word of god
 - 00:13:21.853 --> 00:13:22.854
 - The word of god and he is in contact
 - 00:13:22.921 --> 00:13:24.355
 - And he is in contact with the word of god,
 - 00:13:24.422 --> 00:13:25.757
 - With the word of god, and the word has fallen
 - 00:13:25.823 --> 00:13:26.658
 - And the word has fallen into his heart.
 - 00:13:26.724 --> 00:13:27.625
 - Into his heart. now, he's telling this man, god
 - 00:13:27.692 --> 00:13:29.661
 - Is saying that this man does not
 - 00:13:29.727 --> 00:13:31.396
 - Is saying that this man does not need to worry about how the seed
 - 00:13:31.462 --> 00:13:33.698
 - Need to worry about how the seed grows, "he knows not how."
 - 00:13:33.765 --> 00:13:36.634
 - Grows, "he knows not how." all he got to do is make sure
 - 00:13:36.701 --> 00:13:37.936
 - All he got to do is make sure he's listening,
 - 00:13:38.002 --> 00:13:39.203
 - He's listening, make sure he's hearing,
 - 00:13:39.270 --> 00:13:41.339
 - Make sure he's hearing, have a good heart
 - 00:13:41.406 --> 00:13:42.340
 - Have a good heart towards hearing, amen,
 - 00:13:42.407 --> 00:13:43.708
 - Towards hearing, amen, hear to receive, to understand.
 - 00:13:43.775 --> 00:13:46.311
 - Hear to receive, to understand. if he has that heart, the bible
 - 00:13:46.377 --> 00:13:48.780
 - If he has that heart, the bible says he can go to sleep night
 - 00:13:48.846 --> 00:13:50.248
 - Says he can go to sleep night and day, just live his normal
 - 00:13:50.315 --> 00:13:51.249
 - And day, just live his normal life, and you know what?
 - 00:13:51.316 --> 00:13:53.785
 - Life, and you know what? the harvest will come.
 - 00:13:53.851 --> 00:13:55.286
 - The harvest will come. the seed will sprout and grow,
 - 00:13:55.353 --> 00:13:57.088
 - The seed will sprout and grow, he himself does not know how.
 - 00:13:57.155 --> 00:13:58.523
 - He himself does not know how. i like that because many a time
 - 00:13:58.589 --> 00:13:59.457
 - I like that because many a time people say, you know, you got to
 - 00:13:59.524 --> 00:14:01.592
 - People say, you know, you got to know how the process works.
 - 00:14:01.659 --> 00:14:03.528
 - Know how the process works. we need to have intelligence
 - 00:14:03.594 --> 00:14:04.595
 - We need to have intelligence about these things.
 - 00:14:04.662 --> 00:14:05.563
 - About these things. we need to participate with god.
 - 00:14:05.630 --> 00:14:07.398
 - We need to participate with god. we need to cooperate with god.
 - 00:14:07.465 --> 00:14:09.133
 - We need to cooperate with god. friend, our only cooperation
 - 00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:11.169
 - Friend, our only cooperation is to receive the word,
 - 00:14:11.235 --> 00:14:12.937
 - Is to receive the word, the word itself does the job.
 - 00:14:13.004 --> 00:14:15.506
 - The word itself does the job. you know, when a woman
 - 00:14:15.573 --> 00:14:16.607
 - You know, when a woman receives seed from the man,
 - 00:14:16.674 --> 00:14:18.543
 - Receives seed from the man, she doesn't have to worry
 - 00:14:18.609 --> 00:14:19.210
 - She doesn't have to worry about the first month,
 - 00:14:19.277 --> 00:14:20.511
 - About the first month, second month, third month,
 - 00:14:20.578 --> 00:14:21.446
 - Second month, third month, how, you know,
 - 00:14:21.512 --> 00:14:22.814
 - How, you know, her body is responding,
 - 00:14:22.880 --> 00:14:24.449
 - Her body is responding, how the body is helping
 - 00:14:24.515 --> 00:14:26.918
 - How the body is helping to help create
 - 00:14:26.985 --> 00:14:28.286
 - To help create that precious life,
 - 00:14:28.353 --> 00:14:30.388
 - That precious life, that precious new form and body
 - 00:14:30.455 --> 00:14:33.224
 - That precious new form and body that is being formed in her.
 - 00:14:33.291 --> 00:14:36.627
 - That is being formed in her. she doesn't have to worry
 - 00:14:36.694 --> 00:14:37.295
 - She doesn't have to worry about all that,
 - 00:14:37.362 --> 00:14:38.730
 - About all that, the seed takes care of itself.
 - 00:14:38.796 --> 00:14:40.098
 - The seed takes care of itself. all the wisdom, the dna
 - 00:14:40.164 --> 00:14:42.200
 - All the wisdom, the dna and the genes and all, all that
 - 00:14:42.266 --> 00:14:44.102
 - And the genes and all, all that is in--the wisdom of god
 - 00:14:44.168 --> 00:14:45.870
 - Is in--the wisdom of god is actually in that seed to
 - 00:14:45.937 --> 00:14:47.939
 - Is actually in that seed to reproduce another human being.
 - 00:14:48.006 --> 00:14:49.741
 - Reproduce another human being. when you think about it,
 - 00:14:49.807 --> 00:14:50.608
 - When you think about it, when god talked about the seed
 - 00:14:50.675 --> 00:14:52.243
 - When god talked about the seed in the beginning, god said,
 - 00:14:52.310 --> 00:14:54.412
 - In the beginning, god said, on the third day,
 - 00:14:54.479 --> 00:14:55.413
 - On the third day, actually, think of it,
 - 00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:56.748
 - Actually, think of it, when god introduced plants
 - 00:14:56.814 --> 00:14:59.117
 - When god introduced plants into this earth,
 - 00:14:59.183 --> 00:15:00.385
 - Into this earth, this is what god said:
 - 00:15:00.451 --> 00:15:01.819
 - This is what god said: "then god said, 'let the earth
 - 00:15:01.886 --> 00:15:02.920
 - "then god said, 'let the earth bring forth grass,
 - 00:15:02.987 --> 00:15:04.756
 - Bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed,
 - 00:15:04.822 --> 00:15:06.758
 - The herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree
 - 00:15:06.824 --> 00:15:08.059
 - And the fruit tree that yields fruit
 - 00:15:08.126 --> 00:15:09.761
 - That yields fruit according to its kind,
 - 00:15:09.827 --> 00:15:11.362
 - According to its kind, whose seed is in itself,
 - 00:15:11.429 --> 00:15:13.231
 - Whose seed is in itself, on the earth,'" notice that?
 - 00:15:13.297 --> 00:15:14.665
 - On the earth,'" notice that? "whose seed is in itself."
 - 00:15:14.732 --> 00:15:17.969
 - "whose seed is in itself." so god introduced the grass
 - 00:15:18.036 --> 00:15:20.872
 - So god introduced the grass and the herb and the trees,
 - 00:15:20.938 --> 00:15:23.875
 - And the herb and the trees, and then he says,
 - 00:15:23.941 --> 00:15:24.742
 - And then he says, "whose seed is in itself."
 - 00:15:24.809 --> 00:15:26.444
 - "whose seed is in itself." so the apple fruit,
 - 00:15:26.511 --> 00:15:28.346
 - So the apple fruit, the seed is in it, all right?
 - 00:15:28.413 --> 00:15:31.749
 - The seed is in it, all right? whatever it is, the pear,
 - 00:15:31.816 --> 00:15:33.317
 - Whatever it is, the pear, the vine, all the seed is in it.
 - 00:15:33.384 --> 00:15:36.654
 - "and the earth brought forth
 - 00:15:36.721 --> 00:15:37.855
 - Grass, the herb that yields seed
 - 00:15:37.922 --> 00:15:40.925
 - According to its kind," again,
 - 00:15:40.992 --> 00:15:43.261
 - Reminding us it's according
 - 00:15:43.327 --> 00:15:44.262
 - To its kind, "and the tree that
 - 00:15:44.328 --> 00:15:45.863
 - Yields fruit, whose seed is in
 - 00:15:45.930 --> 00:15:48.433
 - Itself according to its kind.
 - 00:15:48.499 --> 00:15:50.635
 - And god saw that it was good.
 - 00:15:50.701 --> 00:15:53.471
 - So the evening and the morning
 - 00:15:53.538 --> 00:15:54.972
 - So the evening and the morning were the third day."
 - 00:15:55.039 --> 00:15:56.140
 - Were the third day." now, this is the first mention
 - 00:15:56.207 --> 00:15:56.974
 - Now, this is the first mention of number three in the bible,
 - 00:15:57.041 --> 00:15:59.143
 - Of number three in the bible, and the law of first mention
 - 00:15:59.210 --> 00:16:00.711
 - And the law of first mention applies here.
 - 00:16:00.778 --> 00:16:01.746
 - Applies here. every time something
 - 00:16:01.813 --> 00:16:02.480
 - Every time something is mentioned for the first time,
 - 00:16:02.547 --> 00:16:03.548
 - Is mentioned for the first time, there's something significant
 - 00:16:03.614 --> 00:16:04.415
 - There's something significant for us to take note of.
 - 00:16:04.482 --> 00:16:05.917
 - For us to take note of. and number three
 - 00:16:05.983 --> 00:16:06.684
 - And number three is the number of resurrection,
 - 00:16:06.751 --> 00:16:08.486
 - Is the number of resurrection, as well as manifestation.
 - 00:16:08.553 --> 00:16:10.721
 - As well as manifestation. jesus rose from the dead
 - 00:16:10.788 --> 00:16:12.190
 - Jesus rose from the dead on the third day,
 - 00:16:12.256 --> 00:16:13.357
 - On the third day, he manifested himself
 - 00:16:13.424 --> 00:16:15.059
 - He manifested himself as the risen one
 - 00:16:15.126 --> 00:16:16.360
 - As the risen one on the third day.
 - 00:16:16.427 --> 00:16:17.895
 - On the third day. so for the first time god said,
 - 00:16:17.962 --> 00:16:19.897
 - So for the first time god said, let the earth bring forth grass,
 - 00:16:19.964 --> 00:16:22.834
 - Let the earth bring forth grass, let the dry land appear.
 - 00:16:22.900 --> 00:16:25.369
 - Let the dry land appear. and then god says,
 - 00:16:25.436 --> 00:16:26.671
 - And then god says, let trees appear,
 - 00:16:26.737 --> 00:16:29.273
 - Let trees appear, let plants appear,
 - 00:16:29.340 --> 00:16:31.175
 - Let plants appear, and all the fruit trees
 - 00:16:31.242 --> 00:16:33.878
 - And all the fruit trees bearing seed in itself,
 - 00:16:33.945 --> 00:16:36.347
 - Bearing seed in itself, reproducing after its kind,
 - 00:16:36.414 --> 00:16:38.382
 - Reproducing after its kind, it's like god foresaw.
 - 00:16:38.449 --> 00:16:40.084
 - It's like god foresaw. and all this was done
 - 00:16:40.151 --> 00:16:41.152
 - And all this was done on the third day,
 - 00:16:41.219 --> 00:16:42.253
 - On the third day, it's like god foresaw jesus
 - 00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:45.523
 - It's like god foresaw jesus coming in on the third day,
 - 00:16:45.590 --> 00:16:47.525
 - Coming in on the third day, resurrected, hallelujah.
 - 00:16:47.592 --> 00:16:49.961
 - Resurrected, hallelujah. and he's telling us that every
 - 00:16:50.027 --> 00:16:51.429
 - And he's telling us that every seed, even normal seed, even
 - 00:16:51.496 --> 00:16:53.164
 - Seed, even normal seed, even back then, thank god, all the
 - 00:16:53.231 --> 00:16:55.566
 - Back then, thank god, all the salad you ate yesterday, right,
 - 00:16:55.633 --> 00:16:58.002
 - Salad you ate yesterday, right, every--all the fruit trees today
 - 00:16:58.069 --> 00:16:59.537
 - Every--all the fruit trees today are all a reproduction
 - 00:16:59.604 --> 00:17:01.172
 - Are all a reproduction of the very first seed that
 - 00:17:01.239 --> 00:17:03.474
 - Of the very first seed that was there in the garden of eden
 - 00:17:03.541 --> 00:17:06.444
 - Was there in the garden of eden when god first spoke.
 - 00:17:06.511 --> 00:17:08.012
 - When god first spoke. and not only the garden of eden,
 - 00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:08.980
 - And not only the garden of eden, all over the earth, you know,
 - 00:17:09.046 --> 00:17:10.148
 - All over the earth, you know, when god first spoke.
 - 00:17:10.214 --> 00:17:11.349
 - When god first spoke. it's amazing how seed
 - 00:17:11.415 --> 00:17:12.617
 - It's amazing how seed reproduces itself, hallelujah,
 - 00:17:12.683 --> 00:17:14.819
 - Reproduces itself, hallelujah, it's amazing!
 - 00:17:14.886 --> 00:17:16.087
 - It's amazing! it's like, on the third day,
 - 00:17:16.154 --> 00:17:17.955
 - It's like, on the third day, god talked about seed,
 - 00:17:18.022 --> 00:17:18.990
 - God talked about seed, and seed has resurrection power.
 - 00:17:19.056 --> 00:17:21.292
 - And seed has resurrection power. you know, in the 1960s, when
 - 00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:23.528
 - You know, in the 1960s, when they were doing some excavations
 - 00:17:23.594 --> 00:17:26.797
 - They were doing some excavations in king herod's palace over at
 - 00:17:26.864 --> 00:17:30.067
 - In king herod's palace over at masada, they found an old pot.
 - 00:17:30.134 --> 00:17:33.804
 - Masada, they found an old pot. and it had seeds, you know,
 - 00:17:33.871 --> 00:17:36.941
 - And it had seeds, you know, different kind of seeds
 - 00:17:37.008 --> 00:17:37.842
 - Different kind of seeds and plus, a date,
 - 00:17:37.909 --> 00:17:39.510
 - And plus, a date, a judean date palm seed in it.
 - 00:17:39.577 --> 00:17:42.180
 - A judean date palm seed in it. so what happened is that they
 - 00:17:42.246 --> 00:17:43.281
 - So what happened is that they kept the seed for some time.
 - 00:17:43.347 --> 00:17:45.216
 - Kept the seed for some time. and notice, it's in masada,
 - 00:17:45.283 --> 00:17:46.984
 - And notice, it's in masada, which is the lowest place on
 - 00:17:47.051 --> 00:17:48.152
 - Which is the lowest place on planet earth, so it's very dry
 - 00:17:48.219 --> 00:17:49.820
 - Planet earth, so it's very dry and arid in that place.
 - 00:17:49.887 --> 00:17:51.289
 - And arid in that place. and they kept that seed.
 - 00:17:51.355 --> 00:17:52.356
 - And they kept that seed. now, that was in the '60s, but
 - 00:17:52.423 --> 00:17:53.391
 - Now, that was in the '60s, but in 2005, they planted that seed.
 - 00:17:53.457 --> 00:17:57.662
 - In 2005, they planted that seed. and that seed,
 - 00:17:57.728 --> 00:17:58.462
 - And that seed, based on carbon dating
 - 00:17:58.529 --> 00:17:59.664
 - Based on carbon dating and all that, is about
 - 00:17:59.730 --> 00:18:00.865
 - And all that, is about 2,000 years old, from the time
 - 00:18:00.932 --> 00:18:02.567
 - 2,000 years old, from the time of jesus, and that's the time
 - 00:18:02.633 --> 00:18:05.036
 - Of jesus, and that's the time of king herod as well.
 - 00:18:05.102 --> 00:18:06.771
 - Of king herod as well. and that seed,
 - 00:18:06.837 --> 00:18:08.105
 - And that seed, they planted that seed,
 - 00:18:08.172 --> 00:18:09.574
 - They planted that seed, that judean date palm seed.
 - 00:18:09.640 --> 00:18:12.243
 - That judean date palm seed. they planted that seed in
 - 00:18:12.310 --> 00:18:14.278
 - They planted that seed in israel, the 2,000-year-old seed,
 - 00:18:14.345 --> 00:18:17.548
 - Israel, the 2,000-year-old seed, and guess what?
 - 00:18:17.615 --> 00:18:18.783
 - And guess what? it started sprouting again,
 - 00:18:18.849 --> 00:18:20.318
 - It started sprouting again, whoof!
 - 00:18:20.384 --> 00:18:22.353
 - Remember, the bible says,
 - 00:18:22.420 --> 00:18:23.054
 - Remember, the bible says, "the righteous shall flourish
 - 00:18:23.120 --> 00:18:25.256
 - "the righteous shall flourish like the palm tree."
 - 00:18:25.323 --> 00:18:27.091
 - Like the palm tree." i think god is sending a message
 - 00:18:27.158 --> 00:18:28.359
 - I think god is sending a message to israel and to the world that
 - 00:18:28.426 --> 00:18:30.394
 - To israel and to the world that he's going to resurrect israel,
 - 00:18:30.461 --> 00:18:31.829
 - He's going to resurrect israel, hallelujah, praise the lord, and
 - 00:18:31.896 --> 00:18:35.066
 - Hallelujah, praise the lord, and all of us in these last days.
 - 00:18:35.132 --> 00:18:37.635
 - All of us in these last days. and there's a promise given
 - 00:18:37.702 --> 00:18:39.370
 - And there's a promise given that they shall always be fat
 - 00:18:39.437 --> 00:18:41.539
 - That they shall always be fat and green, and the word "fat"
 - 00:18:41.606 --> 00:18:43.808
 - And green, and the word "fat" there is vigorous,
 - 00:18:43.874 --> 00:18:45.009
 - There is vigorous, and the word "green"
 - 00:18:45.076 --> 00:18:45.810
 - And the word "green" is ever young,
 - 00:18:45.876 --> 00:18:46.877
 - Is ever young, hallelujah, and the promise
 - 00:18:46.944 --> 00:18:48.646
 - Hallelujah, and the promise is given in psalms 92.
 - 00:18:48.713 --> 00:18:49.780
 - Is given in psalms 92. but here, the seed started
 - 00:18:49.847 --> 00:18:52.283
 - Sprouting, 2,000-year-old seed
 - 00:18:52.350 --> 00:18:53.718
 - Sprouting, 2,000-year-old seed started sprouting again,
 - 00:18:53.784 --> 00:18:57.054
 - Started sprouting again, and you know what?
 - 00:18:57.121 --> 00:18:58.456
 - And you know what? it's called the methuselah tree.
 - 00:18:58.522 --> 00:18:59.757
 - It's called the methuselah tree. let me show you a picture
 - 00:18:59.824 --> 00:19:00.558
 - Let me show you a picture of that, here it is
 - 00:19:00.625 --> 00:19:02.593
 - Of that, here it is in a place in ketura.
 - 00:19:02.660 --> 00:19:04.228
 - In a place in ketura. they planted this seed
 - 00:19:04.295 --> 00:19:05.763
 - They planted this seed taken from masada,
 - 00:19:05.830 --> 00:19:07.632
 - Taken from masada, and it started to blossom.
 - 00:19:07.698 --> 00:19:09.333
 - And it started to blossom. and now, last year, 2020,
 - 00:19:09.400 --> 00:19:11.269
 - And now, last year, 2020, it's about 11 feet tall already.
 - 00:19:11.335 --> 00:19:14.538
 - It's about 11 feet tall already. and now they are using
 - 00:19:14.605 --> 00:19:15.673
 - And now they are using this methuselah tree--they say
 - 00:19:15.740 --> 00:19:18.142
 - This methuselah tree--they say it's a male tree--to pollinate
 - 00:19:18.209 --> 00:19:21.479
 - It's a male tree--to pollinate the other female palm trees
 - 00:19:21.545 --> 00:19:25.416
 - The other female palm trees in israel.
 - 00:19:25.483 --> 00:19:26.917
 - In israel. it's starting
 - 00:19:26.984 --> 00:19:27.551
 - It's starting to become fruitful again.
 - 00:19:27.618 --> 00:19:29.153
 - To become fruitful again. no wonder god says in psalms 92,
 - 00:19:29.220 --> 00:19:31.222
 - "they shall be--they shall bring
 - 00:19:31.289 --> 00:19:32.456
 - "they shall be--they shall bring forth fruit in their old age."
 - 00:19:32.523 --> 00:19:34.158
 - Forth fruit in their old age." "the righteous shall flourish
 - 00:19:34.225 --> 00:19:35.559
 - "the righteous shall flourish like the palm tree,"
 - 00:19:35.626 --> 00:19:37.361
 - Like the palm tree," and the next verse says,
 - 00:19:37.428 --> 00:19:38.629
 - And the next verse says, "they shall bring forth fruit
 - 00:19:38.696 --> 00:19:40.965
 - "they shall bring forth fruit in their old age," hallelujah;
 - 00:19:41.032 --> 00:19:43.401
 - In their old age," hallelujah; "they shall be fat"
 - 00:19:43.467 --> 00:19:44.669
 - "they shall be fat" (or vigorous), the hebrew
 - 00:19:44.735 --> 00:19:45.736
 - (or vigorous), the hebrew word is vigorous, "and green,"
 - 00:19:45.803 --> 00:19:48.506
 - Word is vigorous, "and green," ra'anan, green, forever green,
 - 00:19:48.572 --> 00:19:50.474
 - Ra'anan, green, forever green, hallelujah, praise the lord,
 - 00:19:50.541 --> 00:19:52.910
 - Thank you jesus, hallelujah.
 - 00:19:52.977 --> 00:19:54.879
 - Thank you jesus, hallelujah. so this is the methuselah tree.
 - 00:19:54.945 --> 00:19:56.580
 - So this is the methuselah tree. so think of it, this is
 - 00:19:56.647 --> 00:19:58.182
 - So think of it, this is the power of resurrection.
 - 00:19:58.249 --> 00:19:59.917
 - The power of resurrection. a 2,000-year-old seed is
 - 00:19:59.984 --> 00:20:01.118
 - A 2,000-year-old seed is supposed to be dead,
 - 00:20:01.185 --> 00:20:02.453
 - Supposed to be dead, deader than dead, but it starts
 - 00:20:02.520 --> 00:20:05.723
 - Deader than dead, but it starts to resurrect again, hallelujah.
 - 00:20:05.790 --> 00:20:08.926
 - To resurrect again, hallelujah. and the life is in the seed.
 - 00:20:08.993 --> 00:20:10.695
 - And the life is in the seed. just like the methuselah tree,
 - 00:20:10.761 --> 00:20:12.697
 - Just like the methuselah tree, that seed is in it,
 - 00:20:12.763 --> 00:20:14.799
 - That seed is in it, kept there for a long time.

 - 00:20:18.969 --> 00:20:21.305
 - These lines and--actually, i was reading something else and my
 - 00:20:21.372 --> 00:20:23.808
 - Reading something else and my bible happened to fall into this
 - 00:20:23.874 --> 00:20:26.010
 - Bible happened to fall into this particular verse in leviticus,
 - 00:20:26.077 --> 00:20:27.445
 - Particular verse in leviticus, believe it or not, but
 - 00:20:27.511 --> 00:20:29.146
 - Believe it or not, but leviticus, where it says this:
 - 00:20:29.213 --> 00:20:32.016
 - Leviticus, where it says this: "and if a part of any such
 - 00:20:32.083 --> 00:20:33.351
 - "and if a part of any such carcass falls on any planting
 - 00:20:33.417 --> 00:20:35.586
 - Carcass falls on any planting seed which is to be sown,
 - 00:20:35.653 --> 00:20:38.222
 - Seed which is to be sown, it remains clean."
 - 00:20:38.289 --> 00:20:39.957
 - It remains clean." now, this is one of the laws
 - 00:20:40.024 --> 00:20:40.925
 - Now, this is one of the laws they had back then,
 - 00:20:40.991 --> 00:20:42.259
 - They had back then, "if a part of any such carcass,"
 - 00:20:42.326 --> 00:20:44.328
 - "if a part of any such carcass," now, this carcass is a carcass--
 - 00:20:44.395 --> 00:20:45.629
 - Now, this carcass is a carcass-- you read earlier verses,
 - 00:20:45.696 --> 00:20:46.831
 - You read earlier verses, it talks about the gecko lizard,
 - 00:20:46.897 --> 00:20:49.333
 - It talks about the gecko lizard, it talks about different kinds
 - 00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:50.835
 - It talks about different kinds of reptiles and, you know,
 - 00:20:50.901 --> 00:20:52.336
 - Of reptiles and, you know, animals that are dead bodies,
 - 00:20:52.403 --> 00:20:54.372
 - Animals that are dead bodies, if their carcass falls
 - 00:20:54.438 --> 00:20:55.606
 - If their carcass falls on any planting seed
 - 00:20:55.673 --> 00:20:57.308
 - On any planting seed which is to be sown,
 - 00:20:57.375 --> 00:20:59.210
 - Which is to be sown, that seed remains clean.
 - 00:20:59.276 --> 00:21:01.545
 - That seed remains clean. now, this kind of verse really
 - 00:21:01.612 --> 00:21:02.446
 - Now, this kind of verse really gets me going, you know,
 - 00:21:02.513 --> 00:21:03.681
 - Gets me going, you know, do you understand that?
 - 00:21:03.748 --> 00:21:05.049
 - Do you understand that? i didn't understand it,
 - 00:21:05.116 --> 00:21:06.016
 - I didn't understand it, but as i meditated on it,
 - 00:21:06.083 --> 00:21:07.618
 - But as i meditated on it, god opened my eyes and i
 - 00:21:07.685 --> 00:21:09.019
 - God opened my eyes and i began to see something here.
 - 00:21:09.086 --> 00:21:10.654
 - Began to see something here. god is saying--from
 - 00:21:10.721 --> 00:21:11.789
 - God is saying--from this one verse, god is saying
 - 00:21:11.856 --> 00:21:13.591
 - This one verse, god is saying that carcass is a picture
 - 00:21:13.657 --> 00:21:14.892
 - That carcass is a picture of corruption and death.
 - 00:21:14.959 --> 00:21:18.062
 - Of corruption and death. if it falls on any planting seed
 - 00:21:18.129 --> 00:21:20.431
 - If it falls on any planting seed which is to be sown,
 - 00:21:20.498 --> 00:21:21.699
 - Which is to be sown, that seed remains clean.
 - 00:21:21.766 --> 00:21:23.734
 - Now, that means death and
 - 00:21:23.801 --> 00:21:25.903
 - Now, that means death and corruption cannot overpower
 - 00:21:25.970 --> 00:21:29.273
 - Corruption cannot overpower that resurrection life
 - 00:21:29.340 --> 00:21:30.875
