  • With the spirit. now, you read the text
  • 00:09:48.339 --> 00:09:49.240
  • Now, you read the text and you think, "okay.
  • 00:09:49.307 --> 00:09:50.008
  • And you think, "okay. maybe i just do this once."
  • 00:09:50.074 --> 00:09:50.975
  • Maybe i just do this once." but that's not really
  • 00:09:51.042 --> 00:09:52.076
  • But that's not really how the verb is written.
  • 00:09:52.143 --> 00:09:53.711
  • How the verb is written. if you read it later in greek,
  • 00:09:53.778 --> 00:09:55.146
  • If you read it later in greek, you go ahead and study it later,
  • 00:09:55.213 --> 00:09:56.047
  • You go ahead and study it later, this verb right here carries
  • 00:09:56.114 --> 00:09:58.316
  • This verb right here carries with it the understanding that
  • 00:09:58.383 --> 00:10:00.118
  • With it the understanding that this will keep on happening.
  • 00:10:00.184 --> 00:10:03.354
  • This will keep on happening. it's like when you
  • 00:10:03.421 --> 00:10:03.921
  • Go to the doctor
  • 00:10:04.022 --> 00:10:04.422
  • Go to the doctor the doctor says to you,
  • 00:10:04.489 --> 00:10:05.089
  • The doctor says to you, "hey, eat right and exercise."
  • 00:10:05.156 --> 00:10:08.059
  • "hey, eat right and exercise." you don't eat right
  • 00:10:08.126 --> 00:10:08.693
  • You don't eat right and exercise once.
  • 00:10:08.760 --> 00:10:11.329
  • And exercise once. you eat right and exercise
  • 00:10:11.396 --> 00:10:12.196
  • You eat right and exercise as a way of life.
  • 00:10:12.263 --> 00:10:14.732
  • As a way of life. the text here is teaching us,
  • 00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:18.102

  • 00:12:58.329 --> 00:12:59.397
  • Through security. i flew with some friends
  • 00:12:59.463 --> 00:13:00.097
  • I flew with some friends of mine not too long ago
  • 00:13:00.164 --> 00:13:01.232

  • And they both forgot their ids. both of them forgot their ids.
  • 00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:05.069
  • Both of them forgot their ids. i was like, "are you --

  • But you can actually still make it through security
  • 00:13:14.312 --> 00:13:16.414
  • Make it through security without your id.
  • 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:19.116
  • Without your id. it just takes a lot longer.
  • 00:13:19.183 --> 00:13:22.019
  • It just takes a lot longer. they had to take them
  • 00:13:22.086 --> 00:13:22.687
  • They had to take them to a side 'em room,
  • 00:13:22.753 --> 00:13:23.321
  • To a side 'em room, pat 'em down.
  • 00:13:23.387 --> 00:13:23.855

  • Great jokes after that. after they came out
  • 00:13:25.756 --> 00:13:26.457
  • After they came out of the other room, i'm like,

  • Of the other room, i'm like, "hey, did they," --
  • 00:13:27.325 --> 00:13:28.025
  • "hey, did they," -- you know, so you can imagine
  • 00:13:28.092 --> 00:13:28.826
  • You know, so you can imagine where we went with all of that.
  • 00:13:28.893 --> 00:13:29.694
  • Where we went with all of that. that was -- it was a blast.
  • 00:13:29.760 --> 00:13:33.164
  • That was -- it was a blast. they got through,
  • 00:13:33.231 --> 00:13:35.299
  • They got through, but it just took
  • 00:13:35.366 --> 00:13:36.033
  • But it just took a little but longer.
  • 00:13:36.100 --> 00:13:38.703
  • A little but longer. i feel like there's a lot of us
  • 00:13:38.769 --> 00:13:41.873
  • I feel like there's a lot of us we're making it through,
  • 00:13:41.939 --> 00:13:44.141
  • We're making it through, but some things are just
  • 00:13:44.208 --> 00:13:44.742
  • But some things are just taking a little bit longer,
  • 00:13:44.809 --> 00:13:47.311
  • Taking a little bit longer, 'cause you're still trying
  • 00:13:47.378 --> 00:13:48.012
  • 'cause you're still trying to willpower it.
  • 00:13:48.079 --> 00:13:50.581

  • The whole house where they were sitting.
  • 00:16:04.815 --> 00:16:05.983
  • They were sitting. they saw what seemed
  • 00:16:06.050 --> 00:16:07.018
  • They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire
  • 00:16:07.084 --> 00:16:07.952
  • To be tongues of fire that separated and came
  • 00:16:08.019 --> 00:16:08.753
  • That separated and came to rest on each of them.
  • 00:16:08.819 --> 00:16:10.187
  • To rest on each of them. all of them were filled with
  • 00:16:10.254 --> 00:16:11.322
  • All of them were filled with the holy spirit and began
  • 00:16:11.389 --> 00:16:13.224
  • The holy spirit and began to speak in other tongues
  • 00:16:13.290 --> 00:16:14.125
  • To speak in other tongues as the spirit enabled them."
  • 00:16:14.191 --> 00:16:16.093
  • As the spirit enabled them." so now, understand this.
  • 00:16:16.160 --> 00:16:17.661
  • So now, understand this. when luke, the writer who --
  • 00:16:17.728 --> 00:16:19.096
  • When luke, the writer who -- luke, the same one who
  • 00:16:19.163 --> 00:16:19.897
  • Luke, the same one who wrote the gospel of luke,
  • 00:16:19.964 --> 00:16:20.865
  • Wrote the gospel of luke, also wrote acts.
  • 00:16:20.931 --> 00:16:21.966
  • When he is writing this,
  • 00:16:22.066 --> 00:16:23.768
  • When he is writing this, he is not trying to start
  • 00:16:23.834 --> 00:16:25.202
  • He is not trying to start a denomination.
  • 00:16:25.269 --> 00:16:26.170
  • A denomination. luke is not trying to start
  • 00:16:26.237 --> 00:16:28.172
  • Luke is not trying to start some certain movement.
  • 00:16:28.239 --> 00:16:29.407
  • Some certain movement. what luke is trying to do is let
  • 00:16:29.473 --> 00:16:31.108
  • What luke is trying to do is let us know what is happening.
  • 00:16:31.175 --> 00:16:33.044
  • Us know what is happening. "we were in the room."
  • 00:16:33.110 --> 00:16:34.045
  • "we were in the room." they're telling me
  • 00:16:34.111 --> 00:16:34.912
  • They're telling me that they were there.
  • 00:16:34.979 --> 00:16:35.613
  • That they were there. they're up there praying.
  • 00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:36.714
  • They're up there praying. they're all together.
  • 00:16:36.781 --> 00:16:37.815
  • They're all together. there's about a hundred
  • 00:16:37.882 --> 00:16:38.582
  • There's about a hundred and twenty of them in the room.
  • 00:16:38.649 --> 00:16:39.850
  • And twenty of them in the room. and all of a sudden --
  • 00:16:39.917 --> 00:16:40.918
  • And all of a sudden -- mary was there,
  • 00:16:40.985 --> 00:16:41.819
  • Mary was there, peter was there,
  • 00:16:41.886 --> 00:16:42.486
  • Peter was there, a bunch of people are there,
  • 00:16:42.553 --> 00:16:43.721
  • A bunch of people are there, but then all of a sudden,
  • 00:16:43.788 --> 00:16:44.889
  • But then all of a sudden, there's like the blowing
  • 00:16:44.955 --> 00:16:46.090
  • There's like the blowing of this violent wind.
  • 00:16:46.157 --> 00:16:47.191
  • Of this violent wind. it comes into to the house.
  • 00:16:47.258 --> 00:16:49.193
  • It comes into to the house. now, wind is
  • 00:16:49.260 --> 00:16:50.227
  • Now, wind is an interesting word,
  • 00:16:50.294 --> 00:16:50.895
  • An interesting word, because the word wind
  • 00:16:50.961 --> 00:16:52.229
  • Because the word wind is connected with spirit.
  • 00:16:52.296 --> 00:16:53.864
  • Is connected with spirit. and this happens in
  • 00:16:53.931 --> 00:16:54.698
  • And this happens in the old testament with ruach,
  • 00:16:54.765 --> 00:16:56.133
  • The old testament with ruach, and it happens in
  • 00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:57.001
  • And it happens in the new testament as with numa.
  • 00:16:57.068 --> 00:16:59.236
  • The new testament as with numa. all of these words overlap.
  • 00:16:59.303 --> 00:17:01.472
  • All of these words overlap. so now, all of a sudden,
  • 00:17:01.539 --> 00:17:02.873
  • So now, all of a sudden, the wind of the holy spirit
  • 00:17:02.940 --> 00:17:04.942
  • The wind of the holy spirit is filling the house
  • 00:17:05.009 --> 00:17:06.444
  • Is filling the house where they are sitting
  • 00:17:06.510 --> 00:17:07.378
  • Where they are sitting and the people are like,
  • 00:17:07.445 --> 00:17:08.412
  • And the people are like, "what is going on here?"
  • 00:17:08.479 --> 00:17:10.815
  • "what is going on here?" and he says, "it looks like
  • 00:17:10.881 --> 00:17:11.749
  • And he says, "it looks like fire starts coming down,
  • 00:17:11.816 --> 00:17:14.051
  • Fire starts coming down, and it starts sitting
  • 00:17:14.118 --> 00:17:15.719
  • And it starts sitting on each of them.
  • 00:17:15.786 --> 00:17:16.587
  • On each of them. and we don't know
  • 00:17:16.654 --> 00:17:17.521
  • And we don't know what's going on.
  • 00:17:17.588 --> 00:17:18.789
  • What's going on. and then, all of a sudden,
  • 00:17:18.856 --> 00:17:20.257
  • And then, all of a sudden, we start speaking
  • 00:17:20.324 --> 00:17:21.358
  • We start speaking in other tongues."
  • 00:17:21.425 --> 00:17:25.963
  • In other tongues." now, this right here.
  • 00:17:26.030 --> 00:17:27.164

  • The holy spirit might bring gifts,
  • 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:16.080
  • Might bring gifts, but the holy spirit
  • 00:18:16.147 --> 00:18:17.114
  • But the holy spirit is not the gift.
  • 00:18:17.181 --> 00:18:17.882
  • Is not the gift. the holy spirit is
  • 00:18:17.948 --> 00:18:19.016
  • The holy spirit is the gift of all gifts,
  • 00:18:19.083 --> 00:18:20.251
  • The gift of all gifts, and he is the one that came.
  • 00:18:20.317 --> 00:18:21.585
  • And he is the one that came. and here's the reality that
