The word Trinity means Godhead 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:24,360 as one God in three persons. So that's namely the Father, the 8 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,230 the Son and Holy Spirit. So some would say that this 9 00:00:28,230 --> 00:00:32,189 topic is, yeah, somewhat hard to understand to a degree. 10 00:00:32,189 --> 00:00:34,510 But yeah, you know what?

Amen. 47 00:02:54,610 --> 00:02:57,170 Wow. So why don't you start with our 48 00:02:57,330 --> 00:02:59,130 very first passage for you, John? 49 00:02:59,290 --> 00:03:05,880 OK, so Deuteronomy 6/4 here, O Israel, the Lord our God the 50 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,560 Lord is 1. And for our second passage we 51 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,320 have from Genesis chapter one, verse 26. 52 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,680 Then God said, let us make mankind in our image, in our 53 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,800 likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the 54 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,480 birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild 55 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,920 animals and over all the creatures that move along the 56 00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:31,000 ground. Yes. 57 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,570 So next first Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 23. 58 00:03:35,770 --> 00:03:40,010 May God, Himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and 59 00:03:40,010 --> 00:03:42,970 through. May your whole spirit, soul and 60 00:03:42,970 --> 00:03:47,490 body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 61 00:03:47,970 --> 00:03:50,210 Wow. Next passage we have from 62 00:03:50,290 --> 00:03:54,090 Matthew chapter 3 starting from verse 16. 63 00:03:54,210 --> 00:03:58,490 Yes, as soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the 64 00:03:58,490 --> 00:04:03,230 water at that moment. Heaven was opened and he saw the 65 00:04:03,230 --> 00:04:07,590 Spirit of God descending like a dove and a lighting on him. 66 00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:13,310 Verse 17 And a voice from heaven said, this is my son whom I love 67 00:04:13,550 --> 00:04:15,550 with him. I am well pleased. 68 00:04:16,269 --> 00:04:19,510 Alright, so second Peter, chapter one starting in verse 69 00:04:19,510 --> 00:04:22,710 16. For we did not follow cleverly 70 00:04:22,710 --> 00:04:25,990 devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord 71 00:04:25,990 --> 00:04:29,870 Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of His 72 00:04:29,870 --> 00:04:34,480 Majesty. So he received honor and glory 73 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,960 from God the Father. When the voice came to him from 74 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,720 the majestic glory, saying, This is my Son whom I love with him, 75 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,120 I am well pleased. We ourselves heard this voice 76 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:50,520 that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred 77 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,360 mountain. Wow. 78 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:58,120 Another passage we have also is from John chapter 3, starting 79 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,160 from verse 16. It says there for God so loved 80 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,600 the world, that he gave his only his one and only Son, that 81 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,760 whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal 82 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,120 life. And verse 17. 83 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,000 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the 84 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,600 world, but to save the world through him. 85 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,920 All right, Next up is John chapter 5 starting in verse 17. 86 00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:26,160 In his defense, Jesus said to them, my father is always at his 87 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,160 work to this very day and I too am working. 88 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,200 For this reason they tried all the more to kill him. 89 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,640 Not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling 90 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,200 God his Father, making himself equal with God. 91 00:05:40,780 --> 00:05:44,180 So Jesus gave them this answer very truly. 92 00:05:44,180 --> 00:05:47,700 I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself. 93 00:05:47,860 --> 00:05:50,820 He can do only what he sees his Father doing. 94 00:05:50,820 --> 00:05:54,300 Because whatever the Father does, the Son also does. 95 00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:59,620 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all He does. 96 00:05:59,740 --> 00:06:04,060 Yes, and He will show him even greater works than these, so 97 00:06:04,060 --> 00:06:07,700 that you will be amazed. For just as the Father raises 98 00:06:07,740 --> 00:06:12,050 the dead and gives them life, Even so the Son gives life to 99 00:06:12,050 --> 00:06:17,730 whom he is pleased to give it. Moreover, the Father judges no 100 00:06:17,730 --> 00:06:22,570 one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, that all 101 00:06:22,570 --> 00:06:25,130 may honor the Son as they honor the Father. 102 00:06:25,410 --> 00:06:28,530 Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who 103 00:06:28,930 --> 00:06:32,410 who sent him. So very truly I tell you, 104 00:06:32,450 --> 00:06:36,410 whoever hears my word and believes him who sent Me has 105 00:06:36,410 --> 00:06:40,650 eternal life and will not be judged, but has crossed over 106 00:06:40,650 --> 00:06:44,730 from death to life. So very truly I tell you, a time 107 00:06:44,730 --> 00:06:49,410 is coming and has now come, when the dead will hear the voice of 108 00:06:49,410 --> 00:06:53,210 the Son of God. And those who will hear, those 109 00:06:53,210 --> 00:06:57,140 who hear will live. For as the Father has life in 110 00:06:57,140 --> 00:07:01,420 himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in 111 00:07:01,420 --> 00:07:06,740 himself, and he has given him authority to judge because he is 112 00:07:06,740 --> 00:07:09,580 the Son of Man. Do not be amazed at this for a 113 00:07:09,580 --> 00:07:13,940 time is coming where all who are in their graves will hear his 114 00:07:13,940 --> 00:07:17,380 voice and come out. Those who have done what is 115 00:07:17,380 --> 00:07:22,890 good, what is good, will rise to live, and those who have done 116 00:07:22,890 --> 00:07:25,130 what is evil will rise to be condemned. 117 00:07:25,690 --> 00:07:30,170 But by myself I can do nothing. I judge only as I hear, and my 118 00:07:30,170 --> 00:07:34,730 judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself, but him who 119 00:07:34,730 --> 00:07:37,570 sent me. Wow, that's a very long time 120 00:07:37,570 --> 00:07:39,770 situation, yeah, Jesus said. That. 121 00:07:40,050 --> 00:07:42,730 Yeah, it's Jesus word, but it's very powerful and we're going to 122 00:07:42,730 --> 00:07:46,290 get to that later, yeah. We'll discuss that later. 123 00:07:46,290 --> 00:07:48,330 Don't. I hope you're not overwhelmed 124 00:07:48,330 --> 00:07:50,460 yet. Yeah, please pay attention. 125 00:07:50,580 --> 00:07:53,700 Please stay with us now we're going to our next passage, which 126 00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:58,380 is from John chapter 15, starting with verse 26, when the 127 00:07:58,380 --> 00:08:02,580 Advocate comes whom I will send to you from the Father, the 128 00:08:02,580 --> 00:08:07,340 Spirit of Truth, who goes out from the Father, he will testify 129 00:08:07,340 --> 00:08:10,860 about me. And you also must testify, for 130 00:08:10,860 --> 00:08:12,780 you have been with me from the beginning. 131 00:08:13,180 --> 00:08:17,300 So Next up is Matthew 26, starting in verse 39, going a 132 00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:21,250 little farther, he felt with his face to the ground, and create 133 00:08:21,650 --> 00:08:26,290 my father, if it's possible. May this cop be taken from me 134 00:08:26,530 --> 00:08:30,210 yet, not as I will, but as you will. 135 00:08:31,130 --> 00:08:35,370 Alright, now for the next passage which is you can found 136 00:08:35,370 --> 00:08:40,690 from chapter from from the book of John, chapter 17 starting 137 00:08:40,690 --> 00:08:44,130 with verse one. After Jesus said this, he looked 138 00:08:44,130 --> 00:08:48,050 toward heaven and prayed. Father, the horrors come. 139 00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:51,860 Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. 140 00:08:52,260 --> 00:08:55,860 For you granted him authority over all the people, that he 141 00:08:55,860 --> 00:08:59,620 might give eternal life to all those you have given him. 142 00:09:00,460 --> 00:09:05,020 Now this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true 143 00:09:05,020 --> 00:09:08,300 God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. 144 00:09:08,580 --> 00:09:11,900 I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you 145 00:09:11,900 --> 00:09:14,380 gave me to do. And now, Father. 146 00:09:14,810 --> 00:09:18,970 Glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before 147 00:09:18,970 --> 00:09:22,410 the world began. I have revealed you to those 148 00:09:22,530 --> 00:09:24,730 whom you gave me out of the world. 149 00:09:25,010 --> 00:09:28,210 They were yours. You gave them to me, and they 150 00:09:28,210 --> 00:09:31,410 have obeyed your word. Now they know that everything 151 00:09:31,410 --> 00:09:33,370 you have given me comes from you. 152 00:09:33,530 --> 00:09:37,090 For I gave them the words you have you gave me, and they 153 00:09:37,090 --> 00:09:40,450 accepted them. They knew with certainty that I 154 00:09:40,450 --> 00:09:43,050 came from you, and they believe that you sent me. 155 00:09:43,610 --> 00:09:46,450 I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, 156 00:09:46,690 --> 00:09:50,250 but for those you have given me, for they are yours. 157 00:09:51,130 --> 00:09:53,490 All right. Next is Hebrews chapter one 158 00:09:53,530 --> 00:09:56,970 starting first one. In the past God spoke to our 159 00:09:56,970 --> 00:10:00,970 ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various 160 00:10:00,970 --> 00:10:05,690 ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, 161 00:10:05,970 --> 00:10:12,060 whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he 162 00:10:12,060 --> 00:10:15,500 made the universe. The sun is the radiance of God's 163 00:10:15,540 --> 00:10:19,580 glory, and the exact representation of his being, 164 00:10:19,780 --> 00:10:22,820 sustaining all things by his powerful word. 165 00:10:23,260 --> 00:10:27,460 So after he had provided purification, for since he sat 166 00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:31,180 down at the right hand of the majesty in heaven. 167 00:10:31,860 --> 00:10:37,540 Now skipping to verses 8 to 10, but about the sun, he says. 168 00:10:38,370 --> 00:10:41,370 Your throne, oh God, will last forever and ever. 169 00:10:41,490 --> 00:10:45,170 A scepter of justice will be the scepter of your Kingdom. 170 00:10:45,410 --> 00:10:48,290 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness. 171 00:10:48,610 --> 00:10:52,330 Therefore God, even your God, has set you above your 172 00:10:52,450 --> 00:10:55,490 companions by anointing you with the oil of joy. 173 00:10:55,770 --> 00:10:59,930 He also says in the beginning, Lord, you lay the foundations of 174 00:10:59,930 --> 00:11:02,730 the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 175 00:11:03,380 --> 00:11:05,820 So wow. There you go. 176 00:11:05,900 --> 00:11:07,620 I think I'm finished with the verses. 177 00:11:07,620 --> 00:11:10,340 Yes, that's all of the verses for this episode. 178 00:11:10,340 --> 00:11:12,260 So thank you for reading along with us. 179 00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:17,780 See you next week.

So as the title already 189 00:11:48,030 --> 00:11:51,670 suggests, all of the verses talk about the Trinity. 190 00:11:52,030 --> 00:11:56,230 And this is because in order, you know, for us to discover 191 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,880 Christ, we should get to know more about him. 192 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:04,280 And you know him being related to God is just, you know, just 193 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,480 one of how we can get to know Him more. 194 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,440 Let's put it that way, yes. Yes, as you can already tell by 195 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:18,160 now, we are currently in the Discovering Christ series, and 196 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,920 our last series was called Discovering God. 197 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,400 So if you're just just letting you know if you're following us. 198 00:12:26,260 --> 00:12:29,500 Just because you are in discovering Christ doesn't make 199 00:12:29,540 --> 00:12:34,220 Jesus not being part of God. If anything, the verses that 200 00:12:34,220 --> 00:12:37,900 we've read just now and the previous episodes we already did 201 00:12:38,220 --> 00:12:42,620 proves that he is God after all, Yes, he is God and that's 202 00:12:42,780 --> 00:12:46,620 already a learning and it's a very good one if you didn't 203 00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:49,180 realize. So that is one of the very 204 00:12:49,180 --> 00:12:53,220 characteristics of God, Him being God, yes. 205 00:12:53,740 --> 00:12:55,540 Yeah. Jesus being God, yes. 206 00:12:56,220 --> 00:13:00,540 So, which is why it's essential to talk about what we've learned 207 00:13:00,540 --> 00:13:02,500 so far in the verses we've just read. 208 00:13:02,500 --> 00:13:06,220 There's a lot of them, and we're gonna do that right now. 209 00:13:06,260 --> 00:13:10,620 So I want to start off with the fact that we just read one of 210 00:13:10,620 --> 00:13:14,060 the most well known and popular verses of the Bible. 211 00:13:14,300 --> 00:13:17,900 And do you know what that is? I think you have already a clue 212 00:13:17,900 --> 00:13:21,070 guys. It's from John chapter 3, verse 213 00:13:21,070 --> 00:13:23,470 16. Yes, that's the one in that 214 00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:25,710 verse. It says that God loves the 215 00:13:25,710 --> 00:13:28,110 world. That's you and me that he gave 216 00:13:28,110 --> 00:13:33,350 his Son, so his only son. We we can take note that the the 217 00:13:33,350 --> 00:13:37,150 word Son was mentioned. So it just makes sense that God 218 00:13:37,310 --> 00:13:39,610 is a Father. Right, True. 219 00:13:39,610 --> 00:13:42,410 True, true. And he is a very loving one. 220 00:13:42,450 --> 00:13:46,570 Yeah, he is. So God is well pleased with his 221 00:13:46,890 --> 00:13:50,970 begotten his only son. Yes, we've read that when Jesus 222 00:13:50,970 --> 00:13:55,570 was baptized and then a glorious scene took place, and then an 223 00:13:55,570 --> 00:13:59,610 audible voice from heaven was heard saying, this is my son 224 00:13:59,650 --> 00:14:03,050 whom I love with him I. Am well pleased. 225 00:14:03,050 --> 00:14:06,450 Well pleased. Yes that's there was even a a a 226 00:14:06,890 --> 00:14:09,810 witness account to this you know as we've read in second Peter 227 00:14:09,810 --> 00:14:13,170 chapter one. But you know we have also read 228 00:14:13,370 --> 00:14:18,130 in John something there were there were some people namely 229 00:14:18,130 --> 00:14:20,490 the Jews. Yeah they didn't take Jesus 230 00:14:20,490 --> 00:14:22,930 seriously. As a matter of fact, they wanted 231 00:14:22,930 --> 00:14:27,050 to to kill him because they thought it was blasphemy that 232 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:31,280 Jesus was making himself equal with God because he was even 233 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,640 calling. It was a very huge issue that he 234 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,200 was even calling God his own father. 235 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,520 Yeah, when they heard that, they were very triggered. 236 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,600 Yes, what, despite all that Jesus have done. 237 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,680 They had no idea that he is Co equal with God. 238 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,480 Yes, he is Co equal with God. But I do like what Jesus said in 239 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,120 the John 5 passage and is alone. Oh yeah, John, Chapter 5. 240 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,640 Powerful phrases from Christ himself. 241 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,880 You can read it again later if you want, but overall it shows 242 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,240 how tight his relationship with God the Father is. 243 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,680 Oh, super tight. So like you can say it's. 244 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,780 Admirable kind of relationship. Yeah, so. 245 00:15:13,980 --> 00:15:16,380 Super intimate. If you read the passage again, 246 00:15:16,380 --> 00:15:20,380 it's like like father, like son, basically. 247 00:15:20,380 --> 00:15:24,700 But it's not in the Godhead. It's not just the Father and the 248 00:15:24,700 --> 00:15:28,620 Son that are working together, as we can read in John John 15, 249 00:15:29,140 --> 00:15:32,820 but it's also the Advocate, so it the Holy Spirit. 250 00:15:32,980 --> 00:15:36,340 Yes and yeah. And he comes into play by being 251 00:15:36,340 --> 00:15:39,660 a witness, by testifying about Jesus to a person. 252 00:15:40,180 --> 00:15:41,100 Amen. Amen. 253 00:15:41,100 --> 00:15:44,220 So we can we. You can read that again if you 254 00:15:44,220 --> 00:15:47,580 want. But maybe my wife Karina wants 255 00:15:47,580 --> 00:15:51,940 to say something. Yes, and actually in in John 256 00:15:51,940 --> 00:15:54,900 chapter 17 we can learn a lot of highlights. 257 00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:59,940 So one is this highlights that it highlights the significance 258 00:15:59,940 --> 00:16:04,580 of a personal relationship with God through Jesus as the means 259 00:16:04,580 --> 00:16:08,790 to eternal life. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. 260 00:16:09,030 --> 00:16:11,790 So it mentioned there we remember we already talked about 261 00:16:11,790 --> 00:16:14,590 eternal life. So this is where it comes to 262 00:16:14,590 --> 00:16:16,950 play. You cannot get eternal life 263 00:16:16,950 --> 00:16:20,410 without believing in God. Be Jesus. 264 00:16:20,690 --> 00:16:24,450 Yes, in what Jesus has done. Yes, and you cannot be. 265 00:16:25,170 --> 00:16:28,770 You cannot inherit eternal life without those prerequisites. 266 00:16:29,250 --> 00:16:32,130 So take note of that. We're going to link a link 267 00:16:32,130 --> 00:16:35,130 somewhere above us if you're watching on YouTube on our 268 00:16:35,130 --> 00:16:40,410 eternal life episode. Also in John 17, you can take 269 00:16:40,410 --> 00:16:42,970 note that Jesus prayed for his disciples. 270 00:16:42,970 --> 00:16:46,680 So it's I think it's highlighting the importance of 271 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,520 prayer and you can probably imagine how important that is 272 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:55,000 because the the Savior himself came into human beings to human 273 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,560 form. And then I think he's setting an 274 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:02,120 example. Yes, prayer that's true. 275 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,040 That's true. I think that's what I'm I'm 276 00:17:05,079 --> 00:17:08,880 trying to point out prayer. Yeah, prayer is important. 277 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,920 It is. Now I think also I also want to 278 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:17,440 add on. That I think this is from John 279 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:22,240 chapter 17, that he just glorified God through obedience 280 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,920 to finishing the work. Yeah, the work. 281 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:29,520 Through the time that, I mean, it's about his death and his 282 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,080 resurrection, yes, so. So obedience. 283 00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:37,920 Yeah, he was very obedient. You can we can all all read that 284 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,530 recently that we if take this cup away from me. 285 00:17:42,530 --> 00:17:46,730 But yeah, if it's but not as I will but yours. 286 00:17:47,290 --> 00:17:51,050 It's still the Lord's will that that he wants to be followed. 287 00:17:51,090 --> 00:17:56,100 He still has this willingness despite how severe he knows he 288 00:17:56,140 --> 00:17:59,820 he he must have known that it's very severe that he's going to 289 00:17:59,820 --> 00:18:03,220 go through, but despite all that, that you will be done. 290 00:18:03,220 --> 00:18:04,740 That's basically what he's saying. 291 00:18:04,940 --> 00:18:08,700 Surrender and obedience? Yes, never surrendered to his 292 00:18:08,700 --> 00:18:11,780 work. That's His death and ultimately 293 00:18:11,780 --> 00:18:15,060 his resurrection afterwards. So that's very good. 294 00:18:15,900 --> 00:18:20,300 In Hebrews chapter one, it's revealed that Jesus coexisted 295 00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:22,860 with God the Father since the beginning. 296 00:18:22,860 --> 00:18:26,920 So you remember, in creation, Jesus was there. 297 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,560 And you think we've already. Yeah. 298 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,240 Talk about that in many episodes before. 299 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,880 Yes. Jesus already existed. 300 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:40,400 I think it's an episode where Kuya Vidal was one of the. 301 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,040 Host Yes, I can remember that we mentioned John Chapter One. 302 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,680 In the beginning, there was a Word. 303 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,040 The Word was a God and the Word was God. 304 00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:50,960 That's right. That's right. 305 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,000 And you can also click that on the top if you're watching 306 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,720 YouTube. And one of my learnings is that 307 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:02,520 he is also collective one. And let me explain that 308 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,840 collective one. You know, Hero Israel, the Lord 309 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,160 our God is 1 if you know your Hebrew. 310 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,440 I didn't study Hebrew, but I know some, I know some very 311 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,760 basic words. This was originally written in 312 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,040 Hebrew. And the word for one, there it 313 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,720 was. It's it. 314 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,480 The meaning of that word is collective 1, so that the word 315 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,960 is a God. That's how they pronounce it. 316 00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:32,880 It's like a collection of How do you, how do you explain that? 317 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,640 Like, all right, let me give you an example of that. 318 00:19:36,360 --> 00:19:38,080 Collective one. Collective one. 319 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,320 Husband and wife like me and her. 320 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:47,960 So we're two separate beings. But we are. 321 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,720 Since we're married, we should function as one. 322 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,480 We're united as one. Yeah. 323 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:59,780 So we're Mr. and Mrs. Valdez. That's that's two individuals, 324 00:20:00,540 --> 00:20:02,020 right? But one, Yes. 325 00:20:02,220 --> 00:20:03,460 So kind of like that. I know. 326 00:20:03,460 --> 00:20:08,500 It's a very mysterious thing. Very maybe complex. 327 00:20:09,100 --> 00:20:11,300 Very complex. It has its own complexity. 328 00:20:11,300 --> 00:20:14,380 But you know what? We would like to encourage you 329 00:20:14,380 --> 00:20:18,700 to not let this hinder you from receiving the truth of His word. 330 00:20:18,820 --> 00:20:21,380 Yes. Instead, may this bless you and 331 00:20:21,380 --> 00:20:24,860 encourage you to get to know more of God's nature. 332 00:20:25,180 --> 00:20:28,820 Because we do believe that God interrupts with human beings 333 00:20:28,820 --> 00:20:34,060 like you and I, and we can fully appreciate the truth by reading 334 00:20:34,060 --> 00:20:38,140 and studying His Word. Absolutely, absolutely. 335 00:20:38,140 --> 00:20:41,580 So you know, because while we can all try and learn to the 336 00:20:41,700 --> 00:20:44,460 absolute limits of our human capacity. 337 00:20:46,090 --> 00:20:49,170 We still cannot fully understand God because after all, we're 338 00:20:49,170 --> 00:20:51,370 just people. And you know, he's God. 339 00:20:51,370 --> 00:20:56,130 Yeah, but maybe we'd like to end the discussion part with this. 340 00:20:56,250 --> 00:21:00,730 So he is God and we are not. Simple, right? 341 00:21:00,730 --> 00:21:04,050 He is God and we are not. We may not be able to know 342 00:21:04,050 --> 00:21:10,170 everything, but we can still know God for who he is. 343 00:21:10,370 --> 00:21:15,050 He is a loving father who loves you and I so much that. 344 00:21:15,370 --> 00:21:19,850 He would give his only Son Jesus Christ, who is by the way, he's 345 00:21:19,850 --> 00:21:24,650 also God. Yes, he and and Jesus. 346 00:21:24,930 --> 00:21:29,410 You know he sent Jesus to die for the sins of the world and 347 00:21:29,410 --> 00:21:33,730 rise up from the dead, thus proving that he is God after 348 00:21:33,770 --> 00:21:36,730 all. And when he ascended, the Holy 349 00:21:36,730 --> 00:21:40,410 Spirit is revealing the truth of who Jesus is. 350 00:21:40,450 --> 00:21:44,690 And now, because we now believe. We are expected to share these 351 00:21:44,690 --> 00:21:48,610 truths with others through the help of this advocate. 352 00:21:48,730 --> 00:21:50,730 And you know, you know who that is. 353 00:21:51,010 --> 00:21:53,290 It's the Holy Spirit. Amen. 354 00:21:54,250 --> 00:21:56,410 All right, So did you learn something new? 355 00:21:57,050 --> 00:21:59,970 We Were you reminded of something with the verses? 356 00:22:01,130 --> 00:22:05,010 Is this the first time you've encountered a Hebrew world like 357 00:22:05,330 --> 00:22:07,930 I could? I cannot even mention that. 358 00:22:08,850 --> 00:22:10,930 Either way, please let us know in the comments. 359 00:22:11,670 --> 00:22:14,670 Whatever it is, whatever that you've learned, we really want 360 00:22:14,670 --> 00:22:17,310 to hear.

And would like to hear from you. 365 00:22:31,630 --> 00:22:34,750 And we're sure that we're not the only ones who wants to hear 366 00:22:34,750 --> 00:22:38,150 from you, but the others who are streaming this to. 367 00:22:38,470 --> 00:22:41,520 That's right. And if you can summarize UH-1 368 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,280 sentence for your learning, I think that would be very very 369 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:47,880 nice. You would really appreciate. 370 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,280 That yes, it's more so. Make it simple, yeah? 371 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,680 And now for the part where we all internalize for a bit, uh, 372 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,000 and think about how we can all apply well what we've learned 373 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,080 today. So the question is, if God is 374 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,360 speaking to you, to the scriptures we just read, how 375 00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:08,560 would you respond to him? Why don't you write down your 376 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,550 answers below? Or on your notes. 377 00:23:11,550 --> 00:23:15,430 So don't be shy because we are going to share ours too right 378 00:23:15,430 --> 00:23:17,070 now. Isn't that right, love? 379 00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:18,270 That's right. That's right. 380 00:23:18,310 --> 00:23:20,750 Still thinking about my I will though. 381 00:23:21,270 --> 00:23:25,790 OK, so I would like to start it. OK, go on my I will would be. 382 00:23:25,830 --> 00:23:31,310 I will not make I I mean I will make it my goal to not entertain 383 00:23:31,310 --> 00:23:36,190 sin in my life. Because I know, although I know 384 00:23:36,190 --> 00:23:40,180 I'm not perfect, but I have to remember that we have to be 385 00:23:40,180 --> 00:23:43,420 blameless by loving righteousness and hating any 386 00:23:43,420 --> 00:23:45,860 form of wickedness in my life. I know, I know it would. 387 00:23:46,180 --> 00:23:51,060 It really sounds easy to say. It really sounds, you know, very 388 00:23:51,060 --> 00:23:54,100 easy to declare and and and vow to. 389 00:23:54,180 --> 00:23:57,820 Easier said than done, yes. But it's so hard it's it would 390 00:23:57,820 --> 00:23:59,860 be. I know it would be so hard to do 391 00:23:59,860 --> 00:24:03,500 it, but that's the challenge. As it would. 392 00:24:03,700 --> 00:24:07,110 I know it's worth it. It's definitely worth it if we 393 00:24:07,110 --> 00:24:10,630 do the right thing. And guess who also hates 394 00:24:10,990 --> 00:24:13,670 wickedness and loves righteousness? 395 00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:16,190 That's Jesus. Yes, that's God. 396 00:24:17,070 --> 00:24:20,470 So, OK, it's my turn, right? Yes. 397 00:24:21,910 --> 00:24:24,470 All right, so that's good. So resisting sin. 398 00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:27,910 I like it. So knowing how my I will is 399 00:24:27,910 --> 00:24:31,230 knowing how Jesus Christ in alignment with God the Father. 400 00:24:31,900 --> 00:24:36,020 Yes, I will aim to be like that, close to my Heavenly Father, and 401 00:24:37,100 --> 00:24:40,860 I can do that by seeking God's guidance in my life. 402 00:24:41,100 --> 00:24:44,900 So that's my I will, I will pray more. 403 00:24:44,900 --> 00:24:50,940 I would read the Bible more. I would study his word for me. 404 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,840 So that's my I will. Wow, it's so personal. 405 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,400 It's so nice.
