00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:12.320
Real life presents the Jack Hibb's podcast with intention and boldness to proclaim truth,

2
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.600
equip the saints and impact our culture.

3
00:00:15.600 --> 00:00:19.480
I'm not going to get into the science of how masks do not work, I'm not going to talk

4
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:20.480
about that right now.

5
00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:24.160
I'm going to talk about please don't allow yourself to be gripped by such a fear, but

6
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:26.400
I can die!

7
00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:30.160
That's the point, that's the point to the gospel.

8
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:32.360
Hello, you're going to die.

9
00:00:32.360 --> 00:00:34.360
Hey everybody cheer up, say it with me.

10
00:00:34.360 --> 00:00:36.360
You're going to die.

11
00:00:36.360 --> 00:00:39.320
Listen, that's why Jesus came, we're all going to die.

12
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:45.120
What we're in the business of heaven is for this, where you're going after you die.

13
00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:49.720
Because you could be fully vaxed, fully masked, step outside of the airport and get hit by

14
00:00:49.720 --> 00:00:51.920
a taxi.

15
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:54.280
Where you going when you die?

16
00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:59.600
Do you trust Christ?

17
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:05.800
You can get the outlines of this podcast by going to jackhibs.com slash podcast.

18
00:01:05.800 --> 00:01:12.040
Today, if this podcast lifts you up and encourages you to live a more fulfilled life in Christ,

19
00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:15.280
then make sure you leave us one of those five star ratings.

20
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:21.880
To us, that's like saying amen or yes, then that rating will encourage others to listen.

21
00:01:21.880 --> 00:01:28.560
Now open your hearts to what God's word has to say to you, here is jackhibs.

22
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:33.560
When you have the freedom of God, you're liberated when you have the freedom of God.

23
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:40.560
You're liberated from doubts, you're liberated from fears, you're liberated from tyranny,

24
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:46.040
from intimidation, be it physical or spiritual, are you hearing me?

25
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:54.560
So we see it this way, we have freedom from our sentence or what has been our sin in life.

26
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:58.480
It's hard for us to face this.

27
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:01.840
The Bible is all about truth, and so we must be all about truth.

28
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:07.440
It says in verse 20, for when you were slaves of sin, that means that you were bound and

29
00:02:07.440 --> 00:02:11.040
you had to do what sins said to do, and you said, well, jack, what does that mean?

30
00:02:11.040 --> 00:02:16.200
You know that when the temptation came into your heart or in your mind and you thought about it,

31
00:02:16.200 --> 00:02:18.240
you went for it.

32
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:20.120
You had no power to resist it.

33
00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:23.440
In fact, you even approved of it.

34
00:02:23.440 --> 00:02:28.320
You even said to others, hey, you want to come with me as I go do this sin?

35
00:02:28.320 --> 00:02:32.480
I know you didn't say it that way, and I didn't say it that way, but hey, you guys want

36
00:02:32.480 --> 00:02:35.800
to come, we're going to go, oh, yes, sure, let's go.

37
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:39.760
And the more the merrier because of this reason.

38
00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:45.800
If you did it by yourself, you feel a little bit the sting of conviction.

39
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.240
But if you can get 3, 4, 5, 10 people to do it with you, it takes the edge off, right?

40
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:56.440
The more people you can get to pile on that thing that you're doing, then it takes the

41
00:02:56.440 --> 00:02:57.960
edge off.

42
00:02:57.960 --> 00:02:59.800
You say, well, how do you know?

43
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:04.640
Because you know, and I know this, everybody's doing it.

44
00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:06.160
Have you ever heard that before?

45
00:03:06.160 --> 00:03:07.160
That's where it comes from.

46
00:03:07.160 --> 00:03:13.480
Coming in on, somebody gets some hair-brained idea, hey, let's do this, let's go vandalize

47
00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:14.480
things.

48
00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:16.480
No, that's not a good idea.

49
00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:21.560
Oh, come on, everybody's doing it.

50
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:25.640
And what they think is liberty leads to bondage.

51
00:03:25.640 --> 00:03:26.640
Sin will do that to you.

52
00:03:26.640 --> 00:03:28.880
We've talked about that at length.

53
00:03:28.880 --> 00:03:33.080
He says, though, listen, this is interesting, amazing logic by the Apostle Paul, for when

54
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:38.680
you were slaves of sin, so you're tied to sin, you're shackled to sin, you have no freedom

55
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:40.080
to get away from it.

56
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:43.640
He says, you were free in regard to righteousness.

57
00:03:43.640 --> 00:03:44.880
It means this.

58
00:03:44.880 --> 00:03:48.320
You couldn't do anything right.

59
00:03:48.320 --> 00:03:53.640
So first, he insults you in the front end of the verse, and then he stabs you at the

60
00:03:53.640 --> 00:03:57.080
latter end of the verse.

61
00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:03.560
You were bound to sin, you're tied to it, chain to it, that's without Jesus.

62
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:12.560
And then on top of it, you had absolutely no power or no regard, or you had no freedom

63
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:19.320
to exercise righteousness because everything that you and I did without Jesus was wrong.

64
00:04:19.320 --> 00:04:24.600
This is tough stuff, people, but it's absolutely true and necessary for us to understand

65
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.880
salvation and to live a life that's worth having.

66
00:04:28.880 --> 00:04:34.560
Verse 21 says, what fruit did you have then in these things or in the things of which you

67
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:36.880
are now ashamed?

68
00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:39.080
Can you guys all circle the word ashamed?

69
00:04:39.080 --> 00:04:40.760
This is important.

70
00:04:40.760 --> 00:04:43.960
Do not raise your hand when I ask this question, don't raise your hand.

71
00:04:43.960 --> 00:04:49.760
We don't need to see it, but you would ask yourself today, am I a follower of Jesus Christ?

72
00:04:49.760 --> 00:04:56.120
So heaven is open, the doors open to those who are followers of Christ.

73
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:58.760
Question to you, are you a follower of Christ?

74
00:04:58.760 --> 00:05:05.880
Only you answer that to yourself inside, internally, and then ask yourself this, regarding

75
00:05:05.880 --> 00:05:12.360
your past life and the things of your past life, are you ashamed of them, don't answer?

76
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:15.280
Are you ashamed of them?

77
00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:20.400
Asshamed meaning you turn, it's to turn away, have you ever seen those cute videos or

78
00:05:20.400 --> 00:05:28.680
Instagrams where the dog tore up the kitchen or the pillows, right, in the dead, the mom

79
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:36.960
of the dead comes home, the mom of the dead, the owner comes home and says, Roscoe, did

80
00:05:36.960 --> 00:05:43.400
you do this and the dog goes, have you seen that?

81
00:05:43.400 --> 00:05:54.480
By the way, have you noticed when a cat does something, loose the fur, did you do this?

82
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:57.480
Right?

83
00:05:57.480 --> 00:06:02.000
There's lessons in this.

84
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:06.080
So the dog can't even look at you.

85
00:06:06.080 --> 00:06:08.640
That's the meaning of this word.

86
00:06:08.640 --> 00:06:12.080
To be ashamed, you just turn your face away.

87
00:06:12.080 --> 00:06:15.680
When you imagine when Jesus shows up and if you're not covered by the blood of Christ

88
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:19.680
in salvation, God's going to look at you and your face, you're going to try to put your

89
00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:22.120
face somewhere.

90
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:29.640
The Bible says, watch out, walk with them for your, it's God's will that you not be ashamed

91
00:06:29.640 --> 00:06:30.640
at His coming.

92
00:06:30.640 --> 00:06:32.440
Isn't that amazing?

93
00:06:32.440 --> 00:06:34.240
When you're walking with Jesus, you're not ashamed.

94
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:35.240
We're not perfect.

95
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:38.920
We mess up all the time, but we hate it.

96
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:41.720
But we're looking forward to His coming.

97
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:50.080
First thing is this, sin in us is the incurable root caused to or of our nature.

98
00:06:50.080 --> 00:06:52.000
You need to know that.

99
00:06:52.000 --> 00:07:00.400
Jeremiah 13 says, can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard his spots?

100
00:07:00.400 --> 00:07:05.600
Then may you also do good who are accustomed to do evil.

101
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:15.280
The heart, look at Jeremiah 179 says, the heart is deceitfully above all things and desperately

102
00:07:15.280 --> 00:07:16.800
wicked who can know it.

103
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.320
This is what the Bible says about our hearts.

104
00:07:20.320 --> 00:07:25.160
And he says right now, right from the get go, your nature cannot change under your own power.

105
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:29.400
Can an Ethiopian change his skin color and can the leopard change its spots?

106
00:07:29.400 --> 00:07:32.440
The answer to the Bible says, no.

107
00:07:32.440 --> 00:07:37.560
Now the Bible also says our hearts are desperately wicked and that's a, I mean that's a strong

108
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:42.800
cup of coffee, right, but you know it's true.

109
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.560
Just look at little kids watching, they're cute.

110
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:51.560
That's why God made them cute because they're wicked little stinkers, stealing from one

111
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:57.680
another, pillaging each other's toy box and stuff.

112
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:03.120
I remember Dr. James Dobson said, which by the way we were very honored, bumped into

113
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:08.080
Dr. James Dobson and he said, jack, I watch every Sunday morning from Palm Springs and

114
00:08:08.080 --> 00:08:13.680
that precious, what a sweet, precious man.

115
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:18.040
Back in the day when we were raising kids, we had 10 commandments back then, we actually

116
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:19.040
had them in stone.

117
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:23.040
It was so far back then and there was something called homeschooling that people thought was

118
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:24.040
illegal back then.

119
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:29.360
And Lisa was homeschooling, I'd come home and do some science with the kids and we had

120
00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:39.080
no parent up books or manuals to help us but Dr. James Dobson and it was like, wow.

121
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:42.920
And Dr. Dobson pointed out he said, you should be very grateful that your two year old has

122
00:08:42.920 --> 00:08:53.160
very poor motor skills because they're so bound by their emotional development that the

123
00:08:53.160 --> 00:08:58.600
body skill, thank God, doesn't match their emotional passion because in one moment they

124
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:03.640
love you and the next moment they would kill you if they had the opportunity, they could.

125
00:09:03.640 --> 00:09:05.960
And then the next moment they would love you.

126
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:10.240
And so he points out it's a great thing, they don't have control over their motor skills

127
00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:14.840
because they would be like little Tasmanian devils running around all over the place.

128
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:17.240
Why, it's in the heart.

129
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:18.400
That's our nature.

130
00:09:18.400 --> 00:09:20.360
Our nature needs to be changed.

131
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:23.080
Secondly, sin in us is the root cause of rebellion.

132
00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:24.080
Did you know that?

133
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:26.000
Where does rebellion come from?

134
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:32.360
Where, with all the stuff you're seeing in our world today of evil, in danger, in ugliness,

135
00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:37.080
and illogic, and wrong, and lovelessness, where does it come from?

136
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.120
The Bible says rebellion.

137
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:46.880
For Samuel 15, verse 23 says, for rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, wow.

138
00:09:47.880 --> 00:09:53.760
I'm practicing witchcraft, that's no way, that's wrong.

139
00:09:53.760 --> 00:09:59.040
But the Bible says rebellion to God is the same as witchcraft, isn't that amazing?

140
00:09:59.040 --> 00:10:04.920
And stubbornness is as iniquity as idolatry because you have rejected the word of the Lord,

141
00:10:04.920 --> 00:10:10.200
he has also rejected you from being king, that was the word given to Saul.

142
00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:15.360
Next sin in us is the root cause of wickedness, this is where it comes from.

143
00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.680
By the way, those of you who are in college, in school, you ought to be writing this stuff down

144
00:10:18.680 --> 00:10:23.000
because if you ever have a debate class or if somebody ever asks you, hey, so you're a Christian,

145
00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:24.920
well, why do bad things happen?

146
00:10:24.920 --> 00:10:28.000
Well, I'm giving you some of the answers right here, right now.

147
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:29.760
Our nature is fallen.

148
00:10:29.760 --> 00:10:32.880
We are natural rebels against God within our hearts.

149
00:10:32.880 --> 00:10:35.720
And when we exercise that, it's called wickedness.

150
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:42.720
Genesis chapter 6, verse 5 says, then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth.

151
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:47.000
That's Genesis 6, that's not today.

152
00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:49.160
Wow.

153
00:10:49.160 --> 00:10:56.640
And that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

154
00:10:56.640 --> 00:10:58.920
Wow, and the Lord was sorry.

155
00:10:58.920 --> 00:11:02.680
The word sorry doesn't mean, oh boy did I make a mistake.

156
00:11:02.680 --> 00:11:05.280
The word means grieve to the core.

157
00:11:05.280 --> 00:11:09.520
It means it technically means that God's head hung down.

158
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:15.240
Now did he know that they were going to sin?

159
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:17.440
Yes, he did.

160
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:22.320
But he went through it all, the Bible says, because when it's all over in eternity,

161
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:30.480
God will receive the glory of having to redeem those who were lost, condemned.

162
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:34.800
Sin in us is the root cause of man's damnation.

163
00:11:34.800 --> 00:11:37.440
Revelation chapter 20, verse 15.

164
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:42.280
Anyone whose name is not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

165
00:11:42.280 --> 00:11:44.880
Is your name written in the Lamb's book of life?

166
00:11:44.880 --> 00:11:46.840
Have you accepted Christ as Lord and Savior?

167
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:47.920
Is your name there?

168
00:11:47.920 --> 00:11:52.080
The Bible says, if you're trusting Christ to have died in the cross for your sins,

169
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:57.200
and that he rose again from the dead exactly as it happened and as it was prophesied,

170
00:11:57.200 --> 00:11:59.400
you lean on him, you trust him.

171
00:11:59.400 --> 00:12:03.040
That truth transforms your life from the outside.

172
00:12:03.040 --> 00:12:05.440
That word hits your ears, goes inside of you.

173
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:11.400
The Holy Spirit goes to work and he transforms you from the inside out.

174
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:14.400
When that happens, you can be rest assured of this.

175
00:12:14.400 --> 00:12:17.600
Your name is written down in heaven.

176
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:20.120
But what if your name is not in heaven?

177
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:23.080
The Bible says you'll be cast into the lake of fire.

178
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:27.840
The Bible announces in Revelation 21, verse 8, who's there?

179
00:12:27.840 --> 00:12:29.720
Who's in that spot?

180
00:12:29.720 --> 00:12:32.360
The cowards are there.

181
00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:34.200
Think of that for a moment, cowardly.

182
00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:36.240
Number one on the list.

183
00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:45.440
Don't you think number one on the list in hell would be what, like, rapist or child molesters?

184
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:46.800
I don't know.

185
00:12:46.800 --> 00:12:54.920
Isn't it bizarre that the Bible has, at the top of the list, first for those who inherit hell are cowards?

186
00:12:54.920 --> 00:12:56.360
Wow.

187
00:12:56.360 --> 00:13:01.080
The unbelieving, the vile, the murders, the sexually immoral.

188
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:07.600
Those who practice magic arts, that's sorcery, dark, demonic.

189
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:14.480
I know this sounds silly to some people, but don't think for a moment weegee boards or toys.

190
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:21.560
Idolaters and liars, they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

191
00:13:21.560 --> 00:13:25.320
This is called the second death.

192
00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:32.040
When verse 21 says, what fruit did you have then in these things of which you are now ashamed

193
00:13:32.040 --> 00:13:35.640
for the end of those things is death?

194
00:13:35.640 --> 00:13:39.200
Because the truth is this, my friend, we're almost done.

195
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:42.040
No, we're not.

196
00:13:42.040 --> 00:13:49.040
Sort of maybe.

197
00:13:50.040 --> 00:13:56.280
We're designed to be mastered.

198
00:13:56.280 --> 00:14:02.480
You say, I don't like the way that sounds, well, it depends on who your master is.

199
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:12.080
But you all know we don't do well on our own.

200
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:18.800
We're designed to have someone over us that's got structure.

201
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:19.880
And he's built a model.

202
00:14:19.880 --> 00:14:25.400
I'm not asking you to get a warm fuzzy feeling about it or judge it up against this culture as a standard.

203
00:14:25.400 --> 00:14:27.040
I'm going to tell you what the Bible says.

204
00:14:27.040 --> 00:14:32.560
God is the head and the church is his body.

205
00:14:32.560 --> 00:14:33.080
Think about it.

206
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.840
The body can't go anywhere without a head.

207
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:43.080
But the head can't accomplish anything without a body.

208
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:47.160
God has chosen to link himself with us.

209
00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:49.600
And then Paul turns around and says, yeah, you know what?

210
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:54.640
Just like a husband is head of the wife.

211
00:14:54.640 --> 00:14:58.720
She's the body and he's the head.

212
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:03.200
That's supposed to be a good thing.

213
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:09.800
When there's biblical masculinity leading, that woman says, honey, you can do whatever you want to do, big.

214
00:15:09.800 --> 00:15:13.760
I know you love me with all your heart.

215
00:15:13.760 --> 00:15:14.520
You want to go there?

216
00:15:14.520 --> 00:15:16.360
You want to do, you want to fly?

217
00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:18.440
You want to sit, you want to ride the bike?

218
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:20.920
You want to eat liver and onions?

219
00:15:20.920 --> 00:15:25.240
That was Lisa and I's big thing.

220
00:15:25.240 --> 00:15:26.240
I love it.

221
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:27.080
I love it.

222
00:15:27.080 --> 00:15:27.360
I know.

223
00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:28.080
But she loves me.

224
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:34.080
So, but you hear what I'm saying?

225
00:15:34.080 --> 00:15:43.560
When Christian men decide to obey God in this model that God created, that he lives out with the church and himself,

226
00:15:43.560 --> 00:15:50.400
then the world is going to have to take notice of us men and the homes that we create.

227
00:15:50.400 --> 00:15:53.240
By no means what I'm saying is chauvinistic whatsoever.

228
00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:57.120
I think chauvinism as it is understood is sickening.

229
00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.600
Machoism is insane.

230
00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:03.440
Biblical masculinity is missing.

231
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:11.840
And when a man leads the way Jesus would have us to lead,

232
00:16:11.840 --> 00:16:15.080
then we lay down our lives first for our wives and our family.

233
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:16.480
We'd die first.

234
00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:24.760
Can you imagine somebody at the door, we're going to break down this door, we're going to kill all of you inside there.

235
00:16:24.760 --> 00:16:29.000
Can you imagine the man saying, can you just hang on a minute?

236
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:36.800
And he runs out the back sliding door, leaves the house to his wife and kids, are you kidding?

237
00:16:36.800 --> 00:16:46.920
When the world comes knocking on the door, it's the man that's supposed to answer the door.

238
00:16:46.920 --> 00:16:51.920
We've been designed that way.

239
00:16:51.920 --> 00:16:54.360
God has given us supernatural powers.

240
00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:58.280
I've got to share this verse, Romans 12, verse 1, you know it well.

241
00:16:58.280 --> 00:17:05.880
And so dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you that you give your bodies to God because of all that he has done for you.

242
00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:11.600
Let them be a living and a holy sacrifice, the kind he will find acceptable.

243
00:17:11.600 --> 00:17:27.680
This is truly the way to worship him, verse 2, and do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

244
00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:36.920
Running out of time, but I want you to see this DARPA, some of you know DARPA, if you don't know DARPA, you don't, if you do, it's insane.

245
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:45.600
But your microwave, your internet, so much of what you have in life came out of DARPA.

246
00:17:45.600 --> 00:17:52.840
And so this is currently, you can go to YouTube, not now after service, you can go to YouTube and watch this.

247
00:17:52.840 --> 00:18:00.560
This is DARPA's development for the US Army of the exoskeleton soldier.

248
00:18:00.560 --> 00:18:08.960
The 21st century soldier, he puts himself, he straps that up part area over his shoulders, straps it onto his legs.

249
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:15.960
The technology of this is top, top secret.

250
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:19.000
You, you strapped it onto your body, you talk about being transformed.

251
00:18:19.000 --> 00:18:26.360
They have a 800 pound, 800 pound block, 800 pounds.

252
00:18:26.360 --> 00:18:27.360
And you try to pick it up.

253
00:18:27.360 --> 00:18:30.280
Can you pick up a 800 pound block?

254
00:18:30.280 --> 00:18:40.640
The guy puts that suit on, puts that skeleton on, walks over to it, picks it up, starts to walk with it.

255
00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:50.680
They put a 100 pound backpack on him with his rifle and gear with this and he runs up a mountain, runs.

256
00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:51.800
What do they do?

257
00:18:51.800 --> 00:19:02.840
They have developed a skeleton for us that's on the outside of our body, but it is built with materials and it's geared at every movable joint in such a way.

258
00:19:02.840 --> 00:19:10.160
That when it goes down, it loads up, it generates strength, and when it moves the other way, it releases that power.

259
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:14.480
It's almost like a super battery inside these joints, okay?

260
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:15.760
You see what? That's cool.

261
00:19:15.760 --> 00:19:22.040
My point is, if man can do that, can't God do that to you on the inside?

262
00:19:22.040 --> 00:19:24.840
The answer to that is absolutely yes.

263
00:19:24.840 --> 00:19:26.240
Yes, he can.

264
00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:36.840
Verse 22 says, but now having been, listen to this, but now having been set free from sin and having become slaves of God,

265
00:19:36.840 --> 00:19:43.200
you have your fruit to hold in us and in the end, everlasting life.
