WEBVTT 00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.640 This podcast is the Ministry of Grand Parkway Baptist Church. 00:00:02.799 --> 00:00:06.000 For more information in our church, please visit Grandparkway.org. 00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:06.559 Amen. 00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:07.679 You can have a seat. 00:00:07.839 --> 00:00:08.560 I want to read. 00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:12.160 As you can tell, if you're a guest today, you look around, things are a little bit different. 00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:14.480 Today we celebrate communion here at Grand Parkway. 00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:24.399 Let me say from the beginning that we observe what's called open communion, which means uh if you're a Christian, if you have a relationship with Christ, then you're welcome to celebrate and receive communion with us. 00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:26.640 If you're not there yet, just relax. 00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:27.679 There's no pressure on you. 00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:35.200 You can just kind of observe and ask yourself, why wouldn't I want to know a God that would give himself for me as payment for my sins? 00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:35.679 Okay. 00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:38.880 I want to read from 1 Corinthians chapter 11. 00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:46.719 Uh I'll start reading in about verse 25, and I want to just give us some instructions that the Bible gives, and then I want to give us a few things to meditate on. 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:48.960 1 Corinthians 11, verse 23. 00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:52.960 The word of God says, For I receive from the Lord what I also deliver to you. 00:00:53.200 --> 00:01:00.960 But the Lord Jesus, on the night when he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and he said, This is my body which is for you. 00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:03.439 Do this in remembrance of me. 00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:09.599 In the same way also he took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood. 00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.439 Do this as often as you drink it in remembrance of me. 00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:18.560 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. 00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:26.799 Whoever therefore eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and the blood of the Lord. 00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:31.359 Let a person examine himself then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:36.480 For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. 00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:39.840 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. 00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:43.519 But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:50.719 For when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined, so that we may not be condemned along with the world. 00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:57.439 There's a lot of things uh written and said about communion and the cross and the crucifixion. 00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:03.920 Uh, in this past week, anytime we observe communion here at Grand Parkway, uh, I just kind of immerse myself in just kind of reading. 00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:08.479 And one of the things, back in 1974, uh a man by the name of J.I. 00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:15.280 Packer, he wrote it's kind of a little pamphlet, but basically it's come to be known as the evangelical model of penal substitution. 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:17.360 Uh, try that on for a sermon title. 00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.840 The evangelical model of penal substitution. 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:27.039 Now, the word penal means that a person has been found guilty uh and deserving of punishment by a court of law. 00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:29.120 And and and and and and but J.I. 00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:36.159 Packer, back in 1974, by the way, we modern preachers have a tendency to think that we've kind of discovered it all, we got it all figured out. 00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:41.280 Uh and so the older I get, the more I the further I reach back in history to read older and older people. 00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:43.759 You say 1974, not that old. 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:45.120 Tell your kids that. 00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:47.599 They're kind of like, uh, what? 00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:49.360 Uh yes, phone, remember phones? 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:51.680 Remember that? 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:53.360 1974 there. 00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:54.639 Had pong. 00:02:56.639 --> 00:02:57.280 Anyone? 00:02:57.520 --> 00:02:57.840 No? 00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:00.639 Yeah, that was like state of the art back then. 00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:02.479 Now your kids would be like, that's lame. 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.879 I'm not waiting for that thing to drag across the thing. 00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:14.400 1974, a man named Jack Packer, he wrote just kind of basically it was a it was like a like not a book, but like a more like a chapter or something, but he kind of boiled it down. 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:36.479 And and as I was preparing for today, I just read over and over and over and found so much freedom and illumination and revelation that the way I want us to get ready for the Lord's table today is by just kind of reflecting upon these uh nine statements that kind of summarize, because when Paul says, hey, anyone who eats the bread and drinks a cup without discerning the body, I want us to discern the body. 00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:43.199 I want us to be, I want us to reflect and remember on exactly what happened on the cross. 00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.000 And so I want us just to kind of reflect on these statements. 00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:46.560 They'll come up. 00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:48.560 Here's the first one I want us to think about. 00:03:52.879 --> 00:04:01.199 God condones nothing but judges all sin as it deserves, which Scripture affirms and my conscience confirms to be right. 00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:04.960 The Bible says in Galatians 6, don't be deceived. 00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:06.000 God is not mocked. 00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:08.800 Whatever a man sows, that shall he also reap. 00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:15.680 For God to not judge sin would mean that God is not a just being. 00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:17.759 And God is just. 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:21.519 Romans 3 tells us he put his son forth. 00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:26.240 He put him forth as a sacrifice of atonement to demonstrate his justice. 00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:31.360 God does not single out certain sins and say these are big ones. 00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:34.319 He judges all sin as it deserves. 00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:37.839 Let's also think about this this morning. 00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:50.560 My sins merit ultimate penal suffering and rejection from God's presence, and nothing I do can blot them out. 00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:53.600 Nothing I do. 00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:54.560 I deserve. 00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:58.000 Me, your pastor, I deserve. 00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:04.319 My sins deserve ultimate just suffering and rejection from God's presence. 00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:06.480 And nothing I do can blot them out. 00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:12.959 If I could do enough good to outweigh my bad, then there's no reason for Jesus to die on the cross. 00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:18.959 But because the Bible is right when it says that all my righteous deeds are as filthy rags in the sight of a living God. 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:29.759 When it says in Titus 3 that not by works of righteousness which we have done has he saved us, but according to his mercy, by the washing of regeneration, by the renewing of the Holy Spirit. 00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:32.319 I'm liberated in the cross. 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:37.920 I'm liberated from trying to earn what God says I can have for free. 00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:42.079 Let's also consider this this morning. 00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:51.680 The penalty due for my sins, whatever it was, was paid for me by Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and his death on the cross. 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:55.199 What I deserve was paid for. 00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:59.680 Just, I mean, you you've got to just think about. 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.240 I deserve separation from God. 00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:04.879 That's just punishment for my sin. 00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:06.800 And died. 00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:12.319 It was paid for me. 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.839 The cross is both public and personal. 00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:21.839 Let's also think of this this morning. 00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:23.040 Because this is so. 00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:27.120 I threw faith in him and made the righteousness of God in him. 00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:28.639 I am justified. 00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:37.920 Pardon, acceptance, and sonship, daughtership, being children of God, that becomes mine. 00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:50.879 The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5, about verse 21, He made him who knew no sin to become sin for us, so that in him we could become the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. 00:06:51.120 --> 00:07:03.120 Hebrews chapter 10, about verse 12 says that when this priesthood offered for all times one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Father. 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.959 And since that time he awaits for his enemies to become his footstool. 00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:10.240 Because by that one sacrifice he is made perfect forever. 00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:12.319 Those who are being made holy. 00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.279 That's my position in Christ. 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:23.040 My process is that I am being made holy. 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:25.920 I'm being made into who the Bible says I am. 00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:37.600 So the issue for you is not, usually when we say let's examine ourselves, we think we think, okay, let me get in touch with what a dirt bag I am so I can come up here and feel bad. 00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:41.199 You're the righteousness of God. 00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:46.079 Let's also think about this. 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:50.000 Christ's death for me is my sole ground of hope before God. 00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:57.360 I don't have anything that I can stand before God and point to and say, look what I did. 00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:04.639 The fact that Christ died for me is my only hope before God. 00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:09.040 But because Christ died for me, my hope is certain. 00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:11.439 My hope is certain. 00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:15.680 Your hope, if you're a Christian today, your hope is certain. 00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:19.040 Let's also think about this. 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.720 My faith in Christ is God's own gift to me. 00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:27.120 Given in virtue of Christ's death for me, the cross procured it. 00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:30.800 My faith in Christ is God's own gift to me. 00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:32.080 It wasn't my idea. 00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:37.360 Therefore, I don't labor under the duty of sustaining or maintaining it. 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:39.840 It is a gift that I enjoy. 00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:47.759 The Bible talks about this in Ephesians chapter 2, when it says, For by grace you're saved through faith, not of works. 00:08:47.919 --> 00:08:50.559 It's a gift of God, lest any man should boast. 00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:52.240 We love to boast. 00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:54.799 We love to say, I did this. 00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:03.360 On the cross, we're forced to recognize that there's nothing that we could do. 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.759 But yet God did everything. 00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:08.240 The cross procured this for me. 00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:12.879 Let's also consider this today. 00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:16.480 Christ's death for me guarantees my preservation to glory. 00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.399 If you're under 40, you're like, I don't get it. 00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:24.399 If you're over 40, you're going, rock on. 00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:26.960 Here's what that means. 00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:28.000 In plain talk. 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:33.200 Philippians 1:6 says, He who began a good work in me will continue it to the day of Christ Jesus. 00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:35.679 Some of you this week was a great week spiritually. 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:38.559 Some of you, it was not a great week for you spiritually. 00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:40.240 Don't beat yourself up today. 00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:43.919 Ask yourself, ask God, God, what are you doing in me? 00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:46.320 Because the Bible says that he began it. 00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:48.080 It was his idea. 00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:49.440 He's going to sustain it. 00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:51.039 And the cross is a reminder. 00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:52.320 You say, what do you mean? 00:09:52.639 --> 00:10:05.519 Romans chapter 8, verse 31 says, Hey, he who spared not his own son, but freely offered him up for us all, how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:07.840 He's just going to keep on. 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.360 The cross is a reminder of the way God wants to relate to you. 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:14.399 Not prosperity, gospel, Christmas list, I get what I want. 00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:15.440 No, no, no, no, no, no. 00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:16.399 That's not what we're talking about. 00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:17.679 We don't believe that here. 00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:26.159 Christ's death for me guarantees I'm going to make it to glory. 00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:34.480 Not because I'm moral or good or a vote Republican or watch the Fox News channel or go to church. 00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:38.240 Christ's death for me. 00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:42.000 Let's also consider this this morning. 00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:46.960 Christ's death for me is the measuring pledge of the love of the Father and the Son to me. 00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:50.559 Romans 5.8. 00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:56.000 God demonstrated his love for us in that while we're still sinners, Christ died for us. 00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.720 A single man asked me a couple months ago, what's it like to be married? 00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:08.960 It is continually thinking of different ways to say the same thing to your wife without her figuring out you're saying the same thing. 00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:11.039 And he said, What's the same thing? 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:12.159 I love you. 00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:13.360 Because I don't get it. 00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:14.320 I said, When you are you dating? 00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:14.799 He goes, Yeah. 00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:15.840 I said, You can say I love you. 00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:17.840 And she goes, Oh, he goes, Yeah. 00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:22.000 I said, When you're married and you say I love you, she's like, Unload the dishwasher. 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.960 And what she's saying is demonstrate it. 00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:30.399 And God says, I'll go first. 00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:32.799 I'll demonstrate it. 00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:35.360 So you'll always know that I love you. 00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:40.000 God's love for you is not contingent upon your behavior. 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:42.320 He loves you. 00:11:44.159 --> 00:11:46.320 Let's consider this this morning. 00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:48.399 This is the last thing we'll consider. 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:54.000 Christ's death for me calls and constrains me to trust, to worship, love, and to serve. 00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:55.120 Look at that again. 00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:59.279 Christ's death for me calls and constrains me to trust, to worship, to love and to serve. 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:07.360 In other words, we are never without a context for what it looks like to love somebody. 00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:15.840 There are things, aspects of Christian behavior, which are really irrelevant unless their relation to basic spiritual truths is made obvious. 00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:17.200 Let me say that again. 00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:24.960 There are aspects of Christian behavior, things the Bible tells us to do that don't make any sense unless we connect them back to a spiritual truth. 00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:34.720 Like, for example, the Bible says in Ephesians chapter 5, husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her. 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:38.879 The death of Christ becomes kind of, hey, this is kind of the standard. 00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:46.879 This is the, I can't say like yesterday at my home, my wife and two daughters left my house at 2 o'clock and they were gone for four hours. 00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:51.759 I was recording a college football game in one room and watching another one in our bedroom. 00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:57.519 Sitting in the corner in a club chair with some old gym shorts on and a t-shirt, eating chips and hot sauce. 00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:59.039 I was like, in Man Heaven. 00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.440 My wife's supposed to stop and pick up pizza about six o'clock. 00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:02.159 I started getting hungry. 00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:03.919 I called her and said, Hey, how you coming? 00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:07.440 She goes, We've been to Target and we're now in Joann's. 00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:10.799 And I'm thinking, four hours in two stores? 00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:19.519 I could feel the flames of hell lapping around my legs as I sat there in my room, had the air conditioner on 66, and every light in the house was off. 00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:23.039 I thought I died and gone to heaven. 00:13:23.759 --> 00:13:25.840 But I looked out the front door, my neighbor was still there. 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:27.120 I said, no, this isn't heaven. 00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:29.360 Anyway, so I just sit there. 00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:31.840 And then I said, Well, just let me know. 00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:36.639 I texted my wife and to take the pressure off and said, Hey, listen, I'm not even hungry yet, so take your time. 00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:42.720 I could tell in her voice, she's like, I'm I left with two kids, I'm coming home with one. 00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.720 And this swole up in me. 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:51.200 Christ's death for me calls and constrains me to trust, worship, love, and to serve. 00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:57.120 Mark 10, 45 says, The Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many. 00:13:57.279 --> 00:13:58.639 Here's my confession today. 00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:07.360 Sometimes I work hard during the week and I go home, and my expectation, though unexpressed, is this that my wife will just serve me. 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:09.759 I know I'm the only one. 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:20.399 And I was sitting there watching, just flipping through the channels, I mean, watching game after game after game, this swole up in me and said, Why don't you offer to go get the pizza? 00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:22.399 So I called my wife and I said, Hey, how are you coming? 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:24.799 And she says, Well, we're in the checkout line at Joann's. 00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:26.399 I said, Hey, what if I go get the pizza? 00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:28.240 Just right up here on Highway 6, five minutes away. 00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:29.679 She goes, No, no, we're already out. 00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:31.039 I didn't ask if you were already out. 00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:33.120 That'd be a great response if I said, Are you still already out? 00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:34.639 See, I called you because you're not here. 00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:35.919 That means you're out. 00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:42.799 Hey, sometime before you die, answer questions I'm asking, not the ones you think I'm asking. 00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:45.120 Gets on my last nerve. 00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:46.080 But I didn't say that. 00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.480 I said, hey, babe, I don't mind going, okay? 00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:48.879 Let me go. 00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:50.080 She goes, No, no, no, we'll get it. 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:51.039 We can swing by there. 00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:58.320 Babe, I could tell by her voice, she was like, oh, just I said, hey, why don't you just, it's it sounds like you're close to being done. 00:14:58.480 --> 00:14:59.039 Uh-huh. 00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:03.120 Just come home and I'll go get the pizza. 00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:08.879 On my way to go get the pizza, it's a five-minute drive up to Papa Murphy's up here on Highway 6, maybe four minutes. 00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:15.360 I thought to myself, because this is how depraved and selfish I am, I am awesome. 00:15:17.279 --> 00:15:21.679 I wonder if my wife is going to tell all our friends what a great serving husband I am. 00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:25.440 And I turned the oven on to preheat it and get it going so it'd be ready when I got back. 00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:27.279 Is it going to pop it in for 10 minutes? 00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:34.399 And I even thought, I wonder if she notices if she beats me home that I had the wherewithal to preheat the oven so it's ready to go. 00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:38.879 And I walked in and she said, I said, Hey, do you notice I got the oven going? 00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:39.600 Because she didn't notice. 00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:43.919 And I just wanted to point out another reason to think I'm awesome. 00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:47.759 And she said, uh, yeah, it's not 400, it's 425. 00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:49.279 And I was offended. 00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:53.600 And I just thought to myself, really? 00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:58.399 I went and got this and killed it and brought it back, and you threw that on me. 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:10.159 And again, I was reminded, husbands love your wives as Christ loves the church and gave himself for her. 00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:11.360 What am I saying? 00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:17.200 You are not without context today on what it looks like to love everybody in your life. 00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:21.279 Your biggest enemy and your closest friend. 00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:22.480 Why? 00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:29.759 Because on the cross, your God prayed, Father, forgive them. 00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:31.200 They don't know what they're doing. 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:36.320 And he bled and died. 00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:41.679 Not just for you and me, but for everybody that disagrees with us and doesn't think like us. 00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:48.960 Now you begin to comprehend the magnitude of the cross. 00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:53.840 You mean people that don't agree with me might get in? 00:16:54.159 --> 00:16:54.799 Yeah. 00:16:56.960 --> 00:16:59.759 The only way in is through a relationship with him. 00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:05.039 So don't be morbidly introspective today. 00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:10.160 Be liberated by the consequence of the cross. 00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:13.200 Stand to your feet, let me speak a blessing over you. 00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:15.200 Hold your hands out. 00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:28.079 On the cross, your father gave you exactly what you need. 00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:36.720 And now your pleasure is to figure out in this life what you don't need anymore. 00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:40.400 You're no longer children, so put away childish things. 00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:42.880 You're sons and daughters of God. 00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:44.480 Depart now. 00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:47.519 Live, love, and laugh like it. 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:49.920 In the name of the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit. 00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:50.720 Amen. 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:51.440 Bless you. 00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:52.079 You're dismissed.
