[1293.02 --> 1293.92] caring conversation |
[1293.92 --> 1294.48] doesn't work, |
[1294.78 --> 1295.70] if a private |
[1295.70 --> 1296.98] caring small group |
[1296.98 --> 1297.44] doesn't work, |
[1297.50 --> 1298.06] then you bring it |
[1298.06 --> 1298.98] to the whole church |
[1298.98 --> 1299.44] community. |
[1299.88 --> 1300.50] And now, |
[1300.92 --> 1301.88] the whole church |
[1301.88 --> 1302.90] feels the weight |
[1302.90 --> 1303.68] of the gravity |
[1303.68 --> 1304.16] of sin |
[1304.16 --> 1305.86] and how serious |
[1305.86 --> 1306.60] it can get. |
[1307.80 --> 1308.86] This is not about |
[1308.86 --> 1309.48] the whole church |
[1309.48 --> 1310.56] now pointing fingers |
[1310.56 --> 1311.04] at a sinner. |
[1311.30 --> 1312.44] It's the whole church |
[1312.44 --> 1313.28] coming together |
[1313.28 --> 1314.24] with gentleness |
[1314.24 --> 1315.06] and care |
[1315.06 --> 1316.10] with the goal |
[1316.10 --> 1317.96] of bringing back |
[1317.96 --> 1319.00] the lost sinner, |
[1319.16 --> 1320.46] not pointing our fingers |
[1320.46 --> 1320.80] and saying, |
[1321.00 --> 1321.28] get out. |
[1322.48 --> 1323.54] That's not our goal. |
[1324.52 --> 1324.92] Sometimes, |
[1325.28 --> 1325.44] yes, |
[1325.50 --> 1326.36] the reality of life |
[1326.36 --> 1327.52] is that must happen. |
[1328.54 --> 1329.24] And sometimes, |
[1329.38 --> 1329.86] reconciliation |
[1329.86 --> 1331.02] is not possible. |
[1331.42 --> 1332.22] Jesus is also |
[1332.22 --> 1333.56] not naive about that. |
[1335.20 --> 1336.58] That's the last step, |
[1336.66 --> 1336.82] right? |
[1336.94 --> 1337.94] Even if they |
[1337.94 --> 1339.66] don't even listen |
[1339.66 --> 1340.60] to the whole church |
[1340.60 --> 1341.04] community. |
[1342.12 --> 1342.68] And sometimes, |
[1342.86 --> 1343.14] sadly, |
[1343.40 --> 1344.28] that happens. |
[1345.04 --> 1345.94] That's what Pastor Dave |
[1345.94 --> 1346.80] goes into for us |
[1346.80 --> 1347.28] next week. |
[1347.36 --> 1348.28] So I'm not going to |
[1348.28 --> 1349.30] steal from his sermon |
[1349.30 --> 1349.82] from next week. |
[1349.82 --> 1350.60] We don't do that here. |
[1350.78 --> 1351.32] We don't steal. |
[1351.64 --> 1352.50] I'll leave it to him. |
[1353.58 --> 1355.38] But it is a sobering reality. |
[1356.36 --> 1357.00] Sometimes, |
[1357.34 --> 1358.24] that is impossible. |
[1360.10 --> 1361.04] Back to the point. |
[1361.76 --> 1362.28] Jesus says, |
[1362.38 --> 1363.18] tell it to the church, |
[1363.22 --> 1363.38] right, |
[1363.44 --> 1364.22] as the last step. |
[1364.98 --> 1365.40] Because, |
[1365.56 --> 1366.94] as Pastor Dave says |
[1366.94 --> 1367.78] all the time |
[1367.78 --> 1368.92] when we do baptisms here, |
[1369.22 --> 1369.82] he says something |
[1369.82 --> 1370.94] like this to us. |
[1371.34 --> 1372.34] It takes a whole village |
[1372.34 --> 1373.14] to raise a child, |
[1373.26 --> 1373.44] right? |
[1373.70 --> 1374.88] It takes a whole church |
[1374.88 --> 1375.28] community |
[1375.28 --> 1376.66] to raise each other up |
[1376.66 --> 1377.32] in faith. |
[1377.64 --> 1378.68] And that includes |
[1378.68 --> 1379.52] this as well. |
[1380.88 --> 1381.36] Sometimes, |
[1381.64 --> 1383.04] it takes a whole church |
[1383.04 --> 1383.42] community |
[1383.42 --> 1384.16] to bring back |
[1384.16 --> 1384.72] a lost sinner. |
[1387.08 --> 1387.74] I'm going to get |
[1387.74 --> 1388.30] a little nerdy |
[1388.30 --> 1388.86] on you here. |
[1389.32 --> 1390.28] I had to study this |
[1390.28 --> 1391.54] during my ordination process. |
[1392.14 --> 1392.84] But we have something |
[1392.84 --> 1393.80] called church orders. |
[1394.16 --> 1395.68] Every church denomination |
[1395.68 --> 1396.86] or tradition |
[1396.86 --> 1398.08] has something called |
[1398.08 --> 1398.66] church orders. |
[1399.02 --> 1399.50] And they're like, |
[1399.56 --> 1400.32] if you simply put, |
[1400.40 --> 1401.12] they're like guidelines |
[1401.12 --> 1402.30] for a healthy church |
