[4246.28 --> 4247.18] rather than joy, |
[4247.28 --> 4247.94] or an experience, |
[4248.12 --> 4248.80] of some sort of, |
[4248.92 --> 4249.98] emotional response, |
[4250.38 --> 4250.48] right, |
[4250.52 --> 4251.58] the question is, |
[4251.64 --> 4253.06] the foundational question is, |
[4253.28 --> 4254.50] am I obeying? |
[4254.70 --> 4255.70] Am I striving, |
[4255.70 --> 4256.80] to obey? |
[4257.22 --> 4258.04] Am I trying, |
[4258.04 --> 4259.22] to live the life, |
[4259.50 --> 4260.52] that Jesus wants me, |
[4260.60 --> 4260.92] to live, |
[4260.98 --> 4261.44] in the way, |
[4261.54 --> 4262.60] that Jesus wants me, |
[4262.64 --> 4263.02] to live it? |
[4263.14 --> 4264.14] That's the fruit, |
[4264.20 --> 4264.90] of faith. |
[4265.48 --> 4265.98] The fruit, |
[4266.06 --> 4267.22] of hearing the word, |
[4267.22 --> 4268.68] and it being planted, |
[4268.68 --> 4269.92] deep in your heart, |
[4270.08 --> 4271.20] and growing out, |
[4271.32 --> 4272.58] and transforming you, |
[4272.66 --> 4273.60] into the image, |
[4274.10 --> 4274.68] of Jesus. |
[4275.98 --> 4276.72] And again, |
[4276.84 --> 4277.52] let me be, |
[4277.68 --> 4278.98] really clear, |
[4279.10 --> 4280.10] because sometimes, |
[4280.28 --> 4281.06] you will hear, |
[4281.22 --> 4282.24] preachers say, |
[4282.94 --> 4283.78] that the multiplication, |
[4283.78 --> 4284.68] of the fruit, |
[4284.78 --> 4285.24] that 30, |
[4285.42 --> 4285.92] 60, |
[4286.04 --> 4286.84] or 100 times, |
[4286.98 --> 4288.56] is a miraculous gift. |
[4288.56 --> 4291.76] but it's not. |
[4293.68 --> 4294.94] It's ordinary. |
[4296.42 --> 4297.86] That's the expected, |
[4297.86 --> 4299.40] yield of the crop. |
[4300.34 --> 4300.44] Right, |
[4300.50 --> 4301.30] 100 times, |
[4301.36 --> 4302.50] would be a good harvest, |
[4302.60 --> 4303.02] no doubt, |
[4303.60 --> 4304.24] but it's not, |
[4304.30 --> 4305.38] an unexpected one. |
[4306.12 --> 4306.26] Right, |
[4306.28 --> 4306.84] the point is, |
[4306.92 --> 4308.40] this kind of fruit bearing, |
[4308.88 --> 4310.00] this kind of hearing, |
[4310.42 --> 4311.58] yielding to obedience, |
[4311.86 --> 4313.44] is what you can expect, |
[4313.74 --> 4315.66] as a disciple of Jesus, |
[4316.14 --> 4316.98] who hears the gospel, |
[4316.98 --> 4318.44] and lives in its truth. |
[4318.66 --> 4319.56] That you manifest, |
[4319.66 --> 4321.16] a transformed life. |
[4321.26 --> 4322.22] This is the ordinary, |
[4322.22 --> 4323.20] expectation, |
[4323.52 --> 4324.48] of the disciple. |
[4325.82 --> 4325.92] Right, |
[4325.94 --> 4327.26] if you want to live, |
[4327.34 --> 4327.80] obedient, |
[4327.92 --> 4328.68] if you are struggling, |
[4328.68 --> 4329.70] to live in the way, |
[4329.70 --> 4330.20] that Jesus, |
[4330.38 --> 4331.84] is calling you to live, |
[4332.48 --> 4333.52] if there is a desire, |
[4333.76 --> 4334.28] in you, |
[4334.36 --> 4335.40] to more and more, |
[4335.56 --> 4336.24] do that. |
[4336.54 --> 4336.90] Perhaps, |
[4337.02 --> 4337.58] especially, |
[4337.92 --> 4339.08] when you don't feel, |
[4339.18 --> 4339.66] like it. |
[4340.42 --> 4340.84] That, |
[4341.08 --> 4341.84] is a mark, |
[4341.94 --> 4342.70] of the authenticity, |
[4343.28 --> 4344.00] of belief, |
[4344.18 --> 4345.32] that you can build, |
[4345.40 --> 4346.50] a foundation upon. |
[4346.50 --> 4346.64] Now, |
[4347.30 --> 4348.74] now please, |
[4349.50 --> 4351.34] hear what I'm saying, |
[4351.92 --> 4353.76] because I'm not saying, |
[4353.90 --> 4354.96] that what you have to do, |
[4355.04 --> 4355.56] is obey, |
[4355.68 --> 4356.50] in order to earn, |
[4356.56 --> 4357.40] the right to hear. |
[4357.62 --> 4358.76] Or that you have to obey, |
[4358.88 --> 4359.62] in order to earn, |
[4359.70 --> 4360.74] the gift of faith, |
[4360.80 --> 4361.32] or to earn, |
[4361.44 --> 4362.92] the grace of God. |
[4363.52 --> 4363.76] Right, |
[4363.80 --> 4364.30] or that, |
[4364.82 --> 4365.06] right, |
