[2439.48 --> 2440.08] who are new |
[2440.08 --> 2440.98] from different parts |
[2440.98 --> 2441.38] of the world. |
[2442.06 --> 2442.48] You're going to meet |
[2442.48 --> 2443.26] some of them next week |
[2443.26 --> 2444.22] as we have our new members |
[2444.22 --> 2445.28] welcome and we baptize |
[2445.28 --> 2445.74] two people. |
[2446.46 --> 2447.32] But two families |
[2447.32 --> 2447.82] that I met with, |
[2447.88 --> 2448.64] one was from China, |
[2448.90 --> 2450.16] the other was originally |
[2450.16 --> 2450.70] from India |
[2450.70 --> 2451.64] and then Qatar. |
[2452.62 --> 2453.60] And it was such a privilege |
[2453.60 --> 2454.42] I'm looking for |
[2454.42 --> 2455.10] some of them right now. |
[2455.20 --> 2455.74] I see one of them, |
[2455.82 --> 2456.64] Avesh and Siali. |
[2457.08 --> 2457.96] Such a privilege |
[2457.96 --> 2459.36] to hear the stories |
[2459.36 --> 2460.44] of how they came to faith, |
[2461.32 --> 2461.86] hear the stories |
[2461.86 --> 2462.72] of how people share |
[2462.72 --> 2463.58] the gospel with them, |
[2463.66 --> 2464.58] the churches they found, |
[2464.66 --> 2465.76] the people who discipled them. |
[2465.92 --> 2466.80] And I just get to see, |
[2466.92 --> 2467.14] wow, |
[2467.28 --> 2468.20] God is at work |
[2468.20 --> 2469.10] in Qatar |
[2469.10 --> 2469.84] and India |
[2469.84 --> 2470.50] and China. |
[2470.74 --> 2471.30] He's at work |
[2471.30 --> 2472.06] in all these places. |
[2472.20 --> 2473.12] He's forming churches, |
[2473.26 --> 2473.86] planting churches, |
[2474.22 --> 2474.92] raising up leaders. |
[2475.10 --> 2476.40] Praise the Lord for that. |
[2477.14 --> 2478.44] But equally so, |
[2479.26 --> 2480.46] I was talking |
[2480.46 --> 2480.74] with someone |
[2480.74 --> 2481.50] after the 9 a.m. service |
[2481.50 --> 2481.88] about this. |
[2481.94 --> 2482.74] I had one of those moments |
[2482.74 --> 2483.40] where your heart |
[2483.40 --> 2484.30] is burning within you |
[2484.30 --> 2485.02] thinking to yourself, |
[2485.42 --> 2486.10] this person |
[2486.10 --> 2487.42] who was discipled |
[2487.42 --> 2488.84] by someone in Shendu |
[2488.84 --> 2490.90] or Southeast Asia, |
[2491.28 --> 2492.20] they are now sitting |
[2492.20 --> 2493.06] with me in my office |
[2493.06 --> 2493.96] and we're brothers |
[2493.96 --> 2495.86] and sisters in faith. |
[2496.78 --> 2498.52] What an amazing reality |
[2498.52 --> 2500.38] that we get to share |
[2500.38 --> 2501.44] in the life of the Spirit. |
[2501.56 --> 2502.26] We get to share |
[2502.26 --> 2503.68] in being part of Abraham's family |
[2503.68 --> 2504.96] because of what Jesus has done. |
[2505.36 --> 2506.40] Praise the Lord |
[2506.40 --> 2508.60] that we get to be the church, |
[2509.18 --> 2509.86] that we share |
[2509.86 --> 2510.44] in the blessing |
[2510.44 --> 2511.24] that God promised |
[2511.24 --> 2513.48] thousands of years ago. |
[2514.58 --> 2514.92] Amen. |
[2516.40 --> 2517.18] And I could say |
[2517.18 --> 2518.12] a lot more about this, |
[2518.24 --> 2519.12] but I want to be short. |
[2520.08 --> 2520.76] Did that come up |
[2520.76 --> 2521.26] on the screen? |
[2524.06 --> 2524.84] Thanks, Trev. |
[2527.74 --> 2529.20] In Galatians 3.28, |
[2529.30 --> 2530.18] one of the things |
[2530.18 --> 2530.72] that he's trying |
[2530.72 --> 2531.28] to communicate |
[2531.28 --> 2532.94] is the beautiful way |
[2532.94 --> 2533.50] in which everyone |
[2533.50 --> 2534.36] comes into the church |
[2534.36 --> 2534.86] by grace |
[2534.86 --> 2535.44] and there can be |
[2535.44 --> 2536.90] no upper and lower class. |
[2537.16 --> 2537.74] So when he says |
[2537.74 --> 2539.20] there's no Jew nor Gentile, |
[2539.30 --> 2540.04] slave nor free, |
[2540.18 --> 2540.84] male nor female, |
[2540.90 --> 2541.60] what he's saying is |
[2541.60 --> 2543.38] everyone enters the church |
[2543.38 --> 2544.06] as equals. |
[2545.08 --> 2545.76] And that means |
[2545.76 --> 2546.48] there's no lording |
[2546.48 --> 2547.34] over anybody, |
[2547.44 --> 2549.08] your socioeconomic class. |
[2549.46 --> 2550.08] There's no lording |
[2550.08 --> 2550.70] over anyone, |
[2550.76 --> 2551.74] the kind of family background |
[2551.74 --> 2552.36] you came from |
