0:00:00.706,0:00:02.907
You children, you're [br]watching your parents.

0:00:02.907,0:00:04.672
Listen, your parents aren't perfect.

0:00:04.672,0:00:07.118
And don't sit there and [br]look at their life and say,

0:00:07.118,0:00:12.086
well, I see where they fail[br]and where they fall short.

0:00:12.086,0:00:13.939
What is that?

0:00:13.939,0:00:17.363
What is that to you?

0:00:17.363,0:00:21.301
Are you going to look at that and say,

0:00:21.301,0:00:24.659
well, that justifies me to ignore Christ?

0:00:24.659,0:00:28.401
No, all that shows you is [br]that sinners need Christ.

0:00:28.401,0:00:30.339
And we need Him all the way to the end,

0:00:30.339,0:00:32.550
to the very last day.

0:00:32.550,0:00:35.685
But are you going to turn [br]your back and say

0:00:35.685,0:00:38.502
I don't need Him? You better think again.

0:00:38.502,0:00:40.506
Because I'll tell you, that day is coming

0:00:40.506,0:00:42.875
when you're going to have [br]to stand before God

0:00:42.875,0:00:45.121
and you'll think right then.

0:00:45.121,0:00:49.005
You'll know.

0:00:49.005,0:00:50.610
Change your mind now.

0:00:50.610,0:00:53.677
Rethink this thing now.

0:00:53.677,0:00:55.805
Some of you young people,

0:00:55.805,0:00:57.028
you gather out there.

0:00:57.028,0:00:58.918
It's like as fast as you can get away -

0:00:58.918,0:01:00.349
get away from this thinking,

0:01:00.349,0:01:02.753
get away from this [br]religion of your parents,

0:01:02.753,0:01:05.441
get out there, get closer [br]towards the world,

0:01:05.441,0:01:07.819
move out towards the sidewalk.

0:01:07.819,0:01:10.638
We see you out there.

0:01:10.638,0:01:12.668
(incomplete thought)

0:01:12.668,0:01:14.478
Remember how it is,

0:01:14.478,0:01:16.619
the devil plucks up the seed.

0:01:16.619,0:01:19.623
And you want to get out there [br]and let each other pluck it up.

0:01:19.623,0:01:21.789
The evil influences, [br]the worldly influences,

0:01:21.789,0:01:24.399
let it get plucked up [br]because you want it gone.

0:01:24.399,0:01:26.836
You feel better, but listen, [br]there's a day coming

0:01:26.836,0:01:28.938
when you won't feel better.

0:01:28.938,0:01:30.782
You better think again.

0:01:30.782,0:01:33.347
This thing that you want [br]to so casually throw off

0:01:33.347,0:01:35.972
and run away from and live [br]it up and live your life,

0:01:35.972,0:01:37.414
you better think again.

0:01:37.414,0:01:40.299
Because what Jesus said is those

0:01:40.299,0:01:41.606
who believe in Him,

0:01:41.606,0:01:43.668
those who come to Him,

0:01:43.668,0:01:48.114
He gives to them life and more abundantly.

0:01:48.114,0:01:51.825
You're on the way of death.

0:01:51.825,0:01:53.547
You better think again.

0:01:53.547,0:01:55.269
It feels like life.

0:01:55.269,0:01:57.247
It feels like freedom,

0:01:57.247,0:01:58.909
but it's a devilish one

0:01:58.909,0:02:00.989
and it's a deception.

0:02:00.989,0:02:03.181
And all the time, Jesus is calling you,

0:02:03.181,0:02:04.627
"Come unto Me.

0:02:04.627,0:02:07.509
I'll give you life and I'll give it [br]to you more abundantly,

0:02:07.509,0:02:10.030
and I will forgive every [br]single one of the sins,

0:02:10.030,0:02:12.969
and I'll take you to paradise [br]just like I did that thief."

0:02:12.969,0:02:14.860
You better think again.

0:02:14.860,0:02:19.611
What I'm offering you is the [br]Treasure of all treasures.

0:02:19.611,0:02:22.230
Is it offensive to tell people [br]those kinds of things?

0:02:22.230,0:02:25.351
Is it offensive to tell people that [br]their sins mount up to Heaven?

0:02:25.351,0:02:27.293
And that pretty soon, the [br]ground underneath them

0:02:27.293,0:02:28.827
is not going to bear them up anymore?

0:02:28.827,0:02:30.009
It's going to give way

0:02:30.009,0:02:31.757
and they're going to fall right [br]into that lake of fire?

0:02:31.757,0:02:34.332
Yes, that offends people, [br]but that is the truth.

0:02:34.332,0:02:35.647
And we need to call them:

0:02:35.647,0:02:38.306
Think again. Think again. Think again.

0:02:38.306,0:02:40.496
Ask yourselves this question.

0:02:40.496,0:02:42.111
Some of you, you're sitting here,

0:02:42.111,0:02:43.667
you know you're not Christians,

0:02:43.667,0:02:46.747
or you know you've been playing a game.

0:02:46.747,0:02:49.302
