[1304.48 --> 1305.26] has the Spirit
[1305.26 --> 1306.14] from the moment
[1306.14 --> 1307.28] of his or her believing.
[1307.76 --> 1309.16] But it might not hurt
[1309.16 --> 1309.90] to ask,
[1310.60 --> 1311.06] instead,
[1311.32 --> 1312.06] does the Spirit
[1312.06 --> 1313.02] have you?
[1315.38 --> 1316.14] I don't like that.
[1317.64 --> 1319.02] Am I submitting?
[1319.72 --> 1320.70] Am I surrendering?
[1322.14 --> 1323.28] Am I getting in the way
[1323.28 --> 1324.40] or not?
[1326.20 --> 1327.22] And I think we see
[1327.22 --> 1327.92] the Spirit at work
[1327.92 --> 1329.12] when we admit
[1329.12 --> 1330.14] that we're too weak.
[1331.54 --> 1333.06] Paul says it rather well
[1333.06 --> 1334.46] when he wrestles
[1334.46 --> 1335.22] with his own weaknesses
[1335.22 --> 1335.70] and he says
[1335.70 --> 1336.74] in 2 Corinthians 12,
[1337.16 --> 1337.42] he said,
[1337.58 --> 1338.82] but God said to me,
[1339.12 --> 1340.40] my grace is sufficient
[1340.40 --> 1340.86] for you.
[1341.10 --> 1342.44] My power is made perfect.
[1342.60 --> 1342.88] How?
[1343.06 --> 1343.78] In weakness.
[1344.16 --> 1344.52] Therefore,
[1344.68 --> 1345.18] I will boast
[1345.18 --> 1345.92] all the more gladly
[1345.92 --> 1346.76] about my weaknesses
[1346.76 --> 1348.08] so that Christ's power
[1348.08 --> 1348.86] may rest on me.
[1349.26 --> 1350.12] That is why,
[1350.22 --> 1350.92] for Christ's sake,
[1351.06 --> 1352.64] I delight in weaknesses,
[1353.00 --> 1353.68] in insults,
[1353.76 --> 1354.32] in hardship,
[1354.58 --> 1355.26] in persecution,
[1355.46 --> 1356.18] in difficulties.
[1356.18 --> 1357.46] For when I am weak,
[1357.70 --> 1358.74] then I am strong
[1358.74 --> 1360.24] in the Spirit.
[1364.74 --> 1365.58] In the Spirit.
[1368.04 --> 1368.54] You know,
[1368.58 --> 1369.40] it made me think of Peter.
[1370.98 --> 1371.42] Right?
[1372.32 --> 1372.96] Peter's always
[1372.96 --> 1374.06] a favorite of mine.
[1375.56 --> 1377.44] He's got so much enthusiasm
[1377.44 --> 1379.34] and at the same time
[1379.34 --> 1380.12] he's such a mess.
[1380.12 --> 1382.14] And so I guess
[1382.14 --> 1383.04] I kind of relate to him.
[1385.52 --> 1386.46] And I was reading
[1386.46 --> 1386.92] this one story
[1386.92 --> 1387.70] where Peter and
[1387.70 --> 1388.78] some of the disciples
[1388.78 --> 1389.32] are on the way
[1389.32 --> 1389.86] to the temple
[1389.86 --> 1391.44] and there's this
[1391.44 --> 1393.96] road that they're
[1393.96 --> 1394.58] walking down
[1394.58 --> 1395.28] and there's this guy
[1395.28 --> 1395.88] that's always been
[1395.88 --> 1396.34] sitting there.
[1396.76 --> 1397.32] He's lame.
[1397.46 --> 1398.38] He's been lame for years.
[1398.46 --> 1399.00] He's been sitting there
[1399.00 --> 1399.42] for years.
[1400.34 --> 1402.08] And suddenly that day,
[1403.12 --> 1403.64] Peter stops
[1403.64 --> 1404.44] and they heal him.
[1405.62 --> 1406.80] And then this reaction
[1406.80 --> 1407.70] out of Acts 3.
[1408.38 --> 1409.14] While the man
[1409.14 --> 1409.74] who's healed
[1409.74 --> 1411.14] held on to Peter and John,
[1411.38 --> 1411.94] all the people
[1411.94 --> 1412.48] were astonished
[1412.48 --> 1413.42] and came running to them
[1413.42 --> 1414.26] in the place
[1414.26 --> 1415.76] called Solomon's Colonnade.
[1416.10 --> 1417.10] And when Peter saw this,
[1417.14 --> 1417.58] he said to them,
[1417.72 --> 1418.54] fellow Israelites,
[1418.86 --> 1419.90] why does this
[1419.90 --> 1421.12] surprise you?
[1421.94 --> 1423.26] Why do you stare at us
[1423.26 --> 1425.16] as if by our own power
[1425.16 --> 1425.68] and godliness
[1425.68 --> 1427.46] we had made this man
[1427.46 --> 1428.80] walk?
[1433.06 --> 1433.56] You know,
[1433.58 --> 1434.10] I was thinking about it.
[1434.10 --> 1434.94] Maybe Jesus
[1434.94 --> 1435.82] passed this guy by.
[1437.02 --> 1437.16] Right?
