Hey everybody.

2

Welcome to Saturday's edition

of the Daily Bible Podcast.

3

Hey everybody, hope you're

having a great Saturday.

4

Great Saturday.

5

Yeah, an excellent Saturday, an

excellent, a stupendous a super Saturday.

6

My kids don't have soccer today

because fall, break and prosper.

7

So all that's off.

8

I've got.

9

One of my kids has basketball, so I'm

taking him to his basketball game.

10

Yeah.

11

So we have a T-ball game.

12

Okay.

13

So we might be there right

now as you're listening to it.

14

I don't know why there's no

softball, but there's a T-ball

15

game, so who's doing T-ball?

16

I am.

17

Oh, no.

18

Okay.

19

Well, I figured it was

either you or Julia.

20

Lincoln's t-Ball guy.

21

How's he doing with that?

22

He's great.

23

That's awesome.

24

He's great.

25

He was very proud 'cause he was

the second fastest on his team.

26

That's great.

27

So you know the things that

matter to a 4-year-old.

28

Totally.

29

Does he run the right

direction on the base path?

30

He does.

31

That's a win.

32

He does.

33

Which it is a win.

34

And at this age and with T-Ball.

35

That's sort of the victories

that you're looking for.

36

Yeah.

37

And when in the field, when the

balls hit and all seven kids in

38

the field collapse on the ball.

39

That's right.

40

It's a dog pile for the ball.

41

That's right.

42

And you have to remind them, no, you're

actually part of the same team and

43

it's just as good as you getting it

as your co whatever player, teammate.

44

There we go.

45

That's the word I was looking for.

46

Yeah, that's it's tough word.

47

Well, and then one kid

comes up like victorious.

48

Meanwhile, the kid has already

hit first base like 30 seconds.

49

That's right.

50

But he still makes the third

of first base as though he is

51

like hoping to get them out.

52

Yeah.

53

And then there's probably

not anybody at first base No.

54

Goes because he was also in the dog pile.

55

Yeah.

56

And then the kid running the bases

is now an outfield for some reason.

57

Right.

58

And right.

59

And there's usually nose

picking that happens.

60

And far too much of it.

61

Flowers picking those off the ground.

62

Yeah.

63

We have one kid on the team.

64

Yeah.

65

Who throws his bat?

66

Okay, so that's really exciting.

67

Like he hits when he hits, okay.

68

Then he releases the bat and

just lets it go and the bat

69

goes inevitably into somebody.

70

But so everybody's gonna duck

when that kid's up to bat.

71

It's not Lincoln, by the way.

72

Okay, well just double checking in there.

73

Yeah.

74

Lincoln only throws his bat into anger.

75

He's just like, man, I struck out

hard to do in T-ball or bat flip, you

76

know, it goes well or bat flip that.

77

Yep, yep.

78

I could see that too.

79

Yeah.

80

But it's awesome.

81

At the same time, man, just watching

them figure out, okay, how does

82

this work and how do we do this?

83

And it's amazing to see the brains

that God gave them For sure.

84

Developing and figuring

these things out For sure.

85

And sometimes not

figuring these things out.

86

Yeah.

87

It's fun and it's a good

thing, which parents.

88

It's okay to let your kid

not continue in sports.

89

Like if you have a kid that you

just recognize as like he doesn't

90

wanna be there or she doesn't

wanna be out there, like you

91

don't have to keep them out there.

92

Right.

93

You can let them go explore

and do something else.

94

It's gonna be okay.

95

That's right.

96

Music.

97

Yeah.

98

Or.

99

Art Adventure Club.

100

Adventure Club Club.

101

They should come to Adventure Club.

102

They could come to Adventure Club.

103

Everybody.

104

They should do that.

105

Everybody should come to Adventure Club.

106

Yes.

107

There's nobody who's

bad at Adventure Club.

108

That's true.

109

Yeah, because it, when you

get to Kid Pitch, it's the

110

first year of Kid pitch is.

111

It's the longest year of sports

ever because these kids are, for

112

the first time, expected to throw

strikes and they do every single time.

113

Right?

114

And that's where you love the empire.

115

That gives a strike zone that's like

four times bigger than it should be.

116

Even if your kid strikes out, you get it.

117

You're like, no, I get it.

118

I get it.

119

That was six feet over his head.

120

But you had to call to strike because

Yeah, because we're only the kid.

121

There's no way only two

batterson into the first inning.

122

Right.

123

And this kid is never gonna get it.

124

In the strike zone, what the

normal strike zone would be.

125

So six feet over strike.

126

Okay, we're good?

127

Yep, that's fine.

128

Yeah.

129

That's crazy.

130

But anyways, you're not here to

hear us talk about kid sports.

131

You're here to hear us talk about.

132

The daily Bible reading.

133

So let's do that.

134

Matthew chapter nine.

135

And Luke chapter seven.

136

Matthew nine.

137

We've got some familiar

text that we've covered.

138

In fact, it opens with the

pastor Rod is leaving right now.

139

He's leaving us.

140

He's.

141

He's abandoning his post, by the way.

142

He's taking a class if

you didn't know that.

143

He is not right now, I guess.

144

But he was taking a class, which

is why he's not on the podcast.

145

Faithful friends.

146

You've got the friends that go

up on the roof and lower their

147

friend down through the roof.

148

And again, Jesus' interaction there.

149

Son, your sins are forgiven.

150

And the Pharisees grumbling

and Jesus knowing that they're

151

grumbling in their hearts, says

to them, Hey, which is easier.

152

And then he flexes his God card

and says that you may know that I

153

have the authority to forgive sins.

154

I say to you, rise, pick

up your bed and go home.

155

And he does that.

156

And, every time I'm like,

okay, why didn't they believe?

157

Yeah.

158

Why didn't they believe?

159

And it's just a reminder.

160

'cause sometimes we think to

ourselves, why doesn't God still

161

do miracles today in the same way?

162

Because then everyone would believe, yeah.

163

At least that's what we think, right?

164

That's what we think.

165

And this is a good reminder to

us that that's just not true.

166

Yeah.

167

And so for us to think, if God would

just let me do a healing service, or

168

if God would, do a miracle, then my

unbelieving neighbor would believe in him.

169

Not necessarily.

170

Yeah.

171

And even more so because these

guys, the deck was stacked

172

in their favor to believe.

173

'cause they're the ones that knew the

Old Testament backwards and forwards.

174

They were waiting for the Messiah.

175

They should and is, they should

have that every single reason.

176

You're exactly right.

177

For sure.

178

And they don't believe, yeah.

179

I mean I've have heard

churches say that we should.

180

We should do healings in our churches

because that's gonna draw people

181

in, that's gonna appeal to people.

182

And I, I think maybe that there's

some little bit of truth to that,

183

but this is evidence that that's

actually not the thing that is

184

ultimately gonna appeal to people.

185

And those things are not gonna appeal

to people for the right reasons.

186

Right?

187

We need to be a church that appeals

to people based on the gospel and.

188

It's evidenced here that even when Jesus

himself does miracles, heals people.

189

It doesn't draw people

for the right reasons.

190

And you see that evident well in the,

it's just a reminder too of second

191

Corinthians four, that the God of

the world has blinded the eyes of

192

the lost to keep them from seeing

the light of the glory of the gospel.

193

And we need the light of Christ to shine

in our hearts, as Paul says there, to

194

give us the ability to believe in him.

195

It's not a matter of convincing

them through the evidence.

196

It's a matter of God doing the work to

open blind eyes to cause them to see.

197

Yeah, and they should have known, this is

a callback to Daniel seven, and then they

198

just go, oh, well it's just another guy.

199

But wow.

200

It's amazing that God gave another

guy just a regular guy, right.

201

These sort of powers and the right to

identify that he has a powers, they're

202

even Right, I think to be afraid.

203

Right.

204

In some sense, their right to glorify

God, although they've, they're off

205

course with why they're glorifying God.

206

Yeah.

207

Yeah.

208

We've got the call of Matthew,

which again, we've seen in

209

some of the other gospels.

210

It's interesting, the other gospel

writers refer to him as Levi.

211

Matthew refers to himself as Matthew,

and so I wonder what's going on there.

212

Just an interesting observation.

213

He says that he saw a man called Matthew

which is our author of this gospel.

214

And so he's recording this.

215

You've got the statement again here

of Jesus came not for those that.

216

Are healthy, but those that are

sick, spiritually sick, that is.

217

And then he gives this statement,

go and learn what this means.

218

I desire mercy and not sacrifice

for, I came to call the, not

219

the righteous but sinners.

220

And that, is a callback

there to the Old Testament.

221

And specifically it's a

callback to Hosea six, six.

222

And.

223

This is Jesus saying, look, God is

not so much after the external Again,

224

we talked about that in yesterday's

episode with the heart and the Sermon

225

on the Mount, but he's after the heart.

226

He's after what's on the inside.

227

And again here, they're condemning

Jesus for being externally unclean

228

in their eyes by fellowshipping

with tax collectors and sinners.

229

And Jesus is saying, look I'm after not

they're external, but they're internal.

230

And so that's why I'm here is for the

people that recognize they've got an

231

internal problem, which is their sickness.

232

Yeah.

233

So we're not.

234

Pharisees in the true sense of a Pharisee.

235

What are some of the temptations,

though that might be akin to what the

236

Pharisees had for us here in Texas today?

237

Are there, I know it's

not gonna be the same.

238

Yeah.

239

But are there some things that we

might be, even in our church, even with

240

Faithful Bible teaching, be tempted

to do wrongly and to look at those

241

outward things and not at our hearts?

242

Yeah.

243

I think.

244

That we can conflate

patriotism with Christianity.

245

Mm-hmm.

246

And I think that's a big danger

for us that can become sical.

247

I've said it and we've talked about

it multiple times, but God has

248

brought the nations to our back door.

249

And we have people living around us

and there's a lot of people that even

250

in the church that have looked at

that and been like, I don't like that.

251

Mm-hmm.

252

And I don't want it to be this way and I

want to go back to the way it used to be.

253

And I think Jesus would say,

Hey they need a physician.

254

Mm-hmm.

255

Your Hindu neighbor across the

street, they need a physician that

256

your Muslim neighbor on your kid's

soccer team, they need a physician.

257

They need me, and that's why they're here.

258

So I think that's one big area that

we gotta guard against being Sal

259

about is, is to say, well, you're

different and I don't like it, and

260

I don't like what you stand for.

261

I'm not saying that you have to love the

fact that they're worshiping false gods

262

in what they stand for as far as that

goes, but to love them and see the need.

263

There, I think is a.

264

An area that I'd say I, I pray

that I get better at that and that

265

we all get better at seeing them

and saying, man, they need Jesus.

266

Yeah.

267

And it's about loving the person, right?

268

Yeah.

269

Not just loving in

general or being loving.

270

Obviously you have to do those

things, but you need to also love.

271

The individual people.

272

Right.

273

And if you've got a neighbor who

even maybe has a different political

274

background, but certainly if they

are a Hindu or a Muslim mm-hmm.

275

You need to love that individual person.

276

Mm-hmm.

277

And it can be really easy to

lump them in with other things

278

or to categorize or just to.

279

To dismiss them.

280

When God has called you, whatever the

political situation is, he's called

281

you to love your next door neighbor.

282

Yep.

283

Or the person down the street.

284

Yep.

285

Yep.

286

Yeah.

287

Matthew also records the

question about fasting.

288

We've covered that a couple times

already here, but it shows up again

289

here again, the synoptic gospels,

Matthew, mark, and Luke, you're gonna.

290

Find a lot of common ground covered in

all of these different gospels, written

291

from different perspectives, again, with

a different purpose from the author,

292

but similar events that are gonna

be here because they were all there.

293

Luke was not an eyewitness,

neither was Mark, although Mark

294

was recording Peter's testimony, so

sort of an eyewitness once removed.

295

But Matthew was there.

296

And so Matthew's recording this.

297

And then we find a situation

that we haven't come across yet,

298

although we will again in Mark

chapter five and Luke chapter eight.

299

And that is this situation with Jairus.

300

And Jairus is the one who Jesus

is, approached by a ruler.

301

It says just in, in Matthew's

gospel, but Mark and Luke both

302

record that his name was Jairus.

303

And so the ruler comes and says,

my daughter has died, and I

304

need somebody to come and savor.

305

And it's interesting that this ruler

realizes that Jesus can do that.

306

Mm-hmm.

307

And so Jesus says, okay

I'll come with you.

308

And on the way the, there's a woman

there who had been, who had a discharge

309

for 12 years, and she comes up and just

wants to be made well and reaches out

310

just to touch the fringe of his garment.

311

And Jesus stops and realizes

the power has left him.

312

And we've read more in depth

in Luke's gospel about his

313

interaction with this woman.

314

But it's fascinating that he

looks at her and says, your

315

faith has made you well go and.

316

Instantly it says the woman was made well.

317

And she goes on from there.

318

So, just an amazing encounter there.

319

And I can only imagine gyrus and the

impatience of going, yeah, can but

320

my daughter, can we just move on?

321

And then he comes to the

house, everybody's there.

322

He says she's sleeping.

323

They laugh at him.

324

They, he puts them out.

325

Luke is gonna tell us that he's only gonna

take the inner three, which are Peter,

326

James, and John up into the room with him.

327

And he's going to take

her and resuscitate her.

328

Not resurrect, 'cause resurrection

means never to die again.

329

But he's gonna resuscitate her.

330

He is gonna bring her back from death

to life and give her back to her family.

331

So just a fascinating.

332

Interaction here in, in this middle

part of John, of Matthew nine.

333

I love this two reasons.

334

First is, as a dad with a daughter

I can sympathize, empathize, yeah.

335

So deeply with this.

336

And it brings me such

comfort to know that that.

337

I follow a God who has this sort of power.

338

Mm-hmm.

339

And this sort of love

for me and for my family.

340

And I know Jesus isn't walking

and doing things like this, but

341

he's the same God with the same

heart cares for me and my family.

342

The other reason I love it is this

is one of the first stories that

343

Edith, my oldest daughter, began

to like, wrap her mind around and

344

could remember as That's awesome.

345

As a little kid.

346

That's awesome.

347

She called it the sick girl.

348

Yeah, the sick girl.

349

And I can't imitate her, little

2-year-old lisp, but man, I love

350

the story for that reason as well.

351

, even in her room, we actually framed the

page from the little beginner's bible.

352

That's awesome.

353

Of this story.

354

Just 'cause just as a sweet memory.

355

Totally.

356

Yeah.

357

And there's so much here too, right?

358

I mean, that's all of us.

359

We're all in that desperation.

360

We're all in this situation where

nothing from the world can help us.

361

Right?

362

Yeah.

363

Because it talks about I think in Matthew

and also in Luke, this woman had been

364

to so many other doctors to try to deal

with her problem and our sin problem.

365

We look.

366

Get so many other places in the world

to try to deal with our sin problem.

367

And there's only one place that we can go

to find relief from sin to find healing.

368

And that's Jesus.

369

And this woman represents that for us.

370

And so it's neat that Matthew's recording

things like that for us that we can now

371

through the lens of the gospel understand

with so much more depth and profundity.

372

Yeah.

373

But that's awesome.

374

Yeah.

375

Yeah, yeah.

376

From here, again, speaking of another.

377

Miracle that points to a greater

reality is these two blind men that

378

Jesus passes by who see more than so

many other people do, because they

379

recognize, they say, have mercy on us.

380

Son of David.

381

That's a Messianic title.

382

Whether this faith is fully baked

at this point, I don't think so,

383

but they know enough to think,

okay, Jesus may be the Messiah.

384

So they're gonna call out

there and he is going to.

385

Heal them.

386

They're gonna, he's gonna call

them to him and say, do you

387

believe that I'm able to do this?

388

And they say yes, and then he

heals them according to their faith.

389

So again the faith that's necessary

to give sight to the blind.

390

And that's the gospel again, right

here in Matthew chapter nine.

391

I know we've talked about these

sort of things before, but

392

let's just go over it again.

393

If I have enough faith.

394

Is Jesus gonna heal me

of my ailments today?

395

Yes.

396

Yes.

397

Yes, he is.

398

Let's move on.

399

No.

400

No.

401

And that's not it.

402

That's not the point.

403

Right.

404

Jesus is doing these things.

405

He's revealing his glory.

406

That's right.

407

As Jesus says in John chapter two

manifesting his glory in . Giving us

408

pictures and glimpses into the kingdom.

409

But that's why the opening one that

we talked about is so important

410

because the greater need was,

son, your sins are forgiven.

411

And the same thing with these blind men.

412

Their greater needs was that their

sins would be forgiven for this woman.

413

The greater need was that she

would be healed from the discharge,

414

not that they would be given the

physical healing that they're after.

415

Yeah.

416

God does that out of mercy for them.

417

That's right.

418

And I think it can be so easy to read.

419

These stories through the wrong lens.

420

Yeah.

421

Which is, it's about me.

422

It's about service to me where this is

revealing Jesus to be the son of man.

423

Yeah.

424

To be the son of David and it's about him.

425

Mm-hmm.

426

And obviously mysteriously and

wonderfully we get included in that.

427

Mm-hmm.

428

But it's, this is about him.

429

This is about Jesus.

430

Yeah.

431

Yeah.

432

Well, let's jump to Luke chapter

seven, and I know we've got

433

some more in Matthew nine.

434

There's a mute man who's healed

the harvest is plentiful.

435

The laborers are few.

436

Pray for those to the Lord to raise up.

437

Laborers to send out into his harvest.

438

Man, that's, there's so much good there.

439

But for the sake of time on

our podcast here, let's jump

440

over to Luke chapter seven.

441

Opens with the Centurion servant.

442

We talked about this already

in Matthew chapter eight.

443

What's different here is Luke records

that it wasn't the servant that

444

came to Jesus, but that the servant

sent his, or that the centurion

445

rather sent his servant to Jesus.

446

So it wasn't the centurion himself,

which is what Matthew said.

447

Luke said he sent his servant

pastor Mark, do we need to be.

448

Perplexed and.

449

Up in arms about the fact that

Luke and Matthew disagree on that?

450

Yes.

451

Yes.

452

Okay.

453

I mean, cool.

454

You answered my question

really simply, and so.

455

I say yes, I think we should

be in despair over this.

456

Okay.

457

Well, that's today's episode

of the Daily Bible Podcast.

458

No, of course not.

459

Of course not.

460

We have to study these things carefully.

461

I think we also have to recognize

that we've got three synoptic gospels

462

that are consistent and consistency.

463

Isn't gonna mean precision in the sense of

how we normally think about these things.

464

Right?

465

Right, for sure.

466

And Matthew was probably after the nuts

and bolts of what was going on here.

467

Whereas as Luke is different.

468

Luke is more in the weeds.

469

And that's Luke's character,

that's who Luke is.

470

He's a physician, he's a scientist.

471

He's gonna investigate, he's.

472

Interviewing people, whereas

Matthew is kind of telling the

473

stories as he recalled them.

474

And this is whether it was the

man or the servant the servant

475

was the representative of the man.

476

And so in essence, it was the

centurion that was there with Jesus

477

saying, come and heal my servant.

478

Yeah, I don't think this should give you.

479

Pause to be, to doubt the

scriptures or to doubt things.

480

I think you're right, pastor Mark,

there's gonna be a difference in our

481

perspective that's going to, we're

gonna remember details differently.

482

Yeah.

483

And this doesn't mean that

the Bible has errors in it.

484

It just means that there's different

perspectives, different purposes

485

behind what people are writing there.

486

Yeah.

487

And that's what I mean by precision.

488

So don't mishear me saying like,

oh, the Bibles and Precise,

489

or the Bible is inaccurate.

490

Yeah.

491

It is a challenging thing though

for believers , to wrestle with.

492

There's ways to wrestle with it

correctly, and of course there's

493

wrong ways to do that for sure.

494

In Luke seven, 11 through 17, we've

got the raising of the widow's son.

495

And again, this is Jesus rising someone

from the dead resuscitating them.

496

This is his power over death.

497

A lot of times we just think about

Lazarus, but he did this multiple times

498

in his ministry and so he does this and

he does this in front of the crowds, and

499

their response is fear and amazement,

and his fame continues to spread.

500

At that point or shortly after this,

John the Baptist who's in prison, he

501

sends a message to Jesus saying, Hey,

are you the guy or are you not the guy?

502

And Jesus says to those that

were sent, Hey, go tell John what

503

you've heard and what you've seen.

504

And he quotes from Malachi three and,

or sorry, he quotes about himself

505

from Isaiah chapter 29 and Isaiah

chapter 35 saying, I'm doing the

506

things that the Messiah was gonna do.

507

So wait and trust.

508

Then he praises John the Baptist as

somebody who, among human beings,

509

there's not one that has been born

that's greater than John, and yet he says

510

the one that's least in the kingdom of

heaven is gonna be greater than John.

511

So some interesting eschatological insight

there into what heaven is gonna be like.

512

Even as far as the.

513

Gradation in ranking in

heaven and things like that.

514

But Jesus is fond of John.

515

John's curious 'cause John's in prison

and he's like, Hey anytime you wanna

516

be the Messiah, like, I'm ready.

517

So I think we get some

of John's hu John in.

518

Not that John's not human, human, but I

think we get some of John's frailty here.

519

Yeah.

520

And Jesus, in a moment of compassion,

mercy says to his disciples, go tell John

521

what you've seen and what you've heard.

522

I'm fulfilling things that

Messiah's supposed to do.

523

Yeah.

524

In a really kind way saying like,

you should know this too, right?

525

Like, right.

526

This is here's the evidence of this.

527

Right.

528

And here's why you should

believe these things.

529

And you're right.

530

I think you do see John's frailty.

531

You see his humanity.

532

And that's not inconsistent

with the other prophets.

533

Yep.

534

And that's different.

535

That what Great point

we've been seeing Jesus do.

536

Yep.

537

Being one who speaks with

authority, unlike all the others.

538

Yep.

539

And it's.

540

Still good that John the

Baptist is John the Baptist.

541

Oh yeah.

542

But we also need to recognize that John

the Baptist wasn't the final answer.

543

It's Jesus who was For sure, for sure.

544

The end of Luke chapter seven

is just another amazing picture

545

of Jesus' love for the lost.

546

And here you have him come to dinner

at the house of a Pharisee whose

547

name was Simon and he's there.

548

And it was tradition at the time that.

549

The host would have somebody, a servant,

or if the servant was available, the host

550

would do it to wash the feet of the guest.

551

It was a way to honor the guest.

552

It was something that was

considered pretty commonplace.

553

It wasn't always, but a Pharisee should

have had the means to be able to do this.

554

Meanwhile, this woman comes a

sinful woman, and we can, basically

555

leave the unsaid as to what

probably her sinfulness was here.

556

And she begins weeping in her tears,

is what she uses to wipe to wash

557

his feet and wipes his feet with

her hair and kisses them as she

558

anoints them with even ointment.

559

And Simon's incensed by this and says,

man, this woman is, I know who she is.

560

I know the type of woman she is.

561

And clearly he doesn't, because if

he did, he would stop her and she.

562

It is then commended by Jesus in that

sweet moment where he says, Simon, she's

563

been forgiven much, so she loves much.

564

The implication is, Simon, you don't

feel like you need to be forgiven at all.

565

And so your love for me is very minimal.

566

Yeah.

567

It's convicting.

568

It is.

569

It is, and I, but I think it's also

encouraging in the sense that we, if

570

we're struggling to love somebody.

571

There's somebody difficult

at work, or maybe it's our

572

neighbor or whoever it is there.

573

Here's a clear way in which we can grow

that love for those people's by washing

574

their feets by, yes, that's right.

575

Knock on your neighbor's nore with a bowl.

576

Yeah.

577

Say hey and cry, and then wipe

their feet with your hair.

578

You took all the air out of what

I was saying, but sorry, go.

579

No, but you were saying we can love

our neighbors by, by, by remembering

580

how much we've been forgiven.

581

Totally.

582

And if we are people who are constantly

remembering what God did for us while

583

we were enemies of him it's gonna make

it a lot easier to love those people

584

who we struggle to love For sure.

585

A hundred percent agree, man.

586

Yeah.

587

Well, there you go.

588

Let's let's pray and then we'll

be done with the another episode.

589

Lord, we have all, if we are in Christ,

been forgiven so much and help us to

590

remember that so that we will love you

much to be reminded just day after day

591

of how great your mercy has been to us.

592

In fact, we'll talk about it even

tomorrow because once we had not

593

received Mer Mercy, but now we have

received mercy, and that is such a good

594

thing that you have not given us what

we deserve, which is the full wrath.

595

Of that is our sins are worthy of.

596

And just like this

woman, she was a sinner.

597

She was guilty, she was

somebody that was immoral.

598

And yet she had been forgiven because

of the faith that she would possess.

599

And her faith was not yet what it would

be because she didn't fully understand

600

how Jesus was gonna deliver her.

601

But she understood enough.

602

So Jesus commenced her,

well, we wanna be like her.

603

We want to understand how much

we've been forgiven, and we wanna

604

love you much by by extension.

605

And so, God we look

forward to even to get.

606

To eternity to find out

the questions we may have.

607

Like, was this Mary Magdalene

and was this because she hadn't

608

had the demons cast out of her?

609

And so many questions that maybe we

have and one, one day we'll know.

610

But for now Lord, we, we just love

the example and we love the example

611

of our savior and his love for

her and his love for us, since we

612

pray all this in Jesus name, amen.

613

Amen.

614

Keep her in your Bibles.
