[1466.32 --> 1467.86] writing this message,
|
[1468.08 --> 1469.42] I saw this meme,
|
[1469.54 --> 1470.02] this picture,
|
[1470.02 --> 1471.12] and it sums up
|
[1471.12 --> 1472.14] this point so beautifully.
|
[1472.96 --> 1473.68] See, Moses thought
|
[1473.68 --> 1474.54] he wasn't qualified
|
[1474.54 --> 1475.72] to be able to fulfill
|
[1475.72 --> 1477.50] God's calling for him,
|
[1477.70 --> 1478.94] but the truth is
|
[1478.94 --> 1481.36] God doesn't call
|
[1481.36 --> 1482.04] the qualified.
|
[1482.88 --> 1484.62] God qualifies the called.
|
[1486.32 --> 1487.40] God doesn't call
|
[1487.40 --> 1488.26] the qualified.
|
[1488.90 --> 1490.24] He qualifies the called.
|
[1490.30 --> 1491.04] Who saw that meme?
|
[1491.10 --> 1492.16] Anybody see a meme like that?
|
[1492.92 --> 1493.84] I could have possibly
|
[1493.84 --> 1494.74] taken credit for this.
|
[1494.78 --> 1495.34] That's too bad.
|
[1496.00 --> 1496.60] This is why you shouldn't
|
[1496.60 --> 1497.64] preface things like this.
|
[1497.90 --> 1498.72] That would have been brilliant,
|
[1498.86 --> 1498.96] hey?
|
[1500.02 --> 1501.10] God doesn't call
|
[1501.10 --> 1501.80] the qualified.
|
[1502.10 --> 1503.68] He qualifies the called.
|
[1503.94 --> 1504.86] See, we're all called.
|
[1505.70 --> 1506.30] All of us.
|
[1506.34 --> 1506.90] We're all called.
|
[1506.98 --> 1507.74] We're called to love.
|
[1508.02 --> 1508.90] We're called to serve.
|
[1509.14 --> 1509.94] We're called to forgive.
|
[1510.16 --> 1511.00] We're called to submit
|
[1511.00 --> 1512.04] to God.
|
[1513.58 --> 1514.38] Perhaps you don't always
|
[1514.38 --> 1515.68] feel qualified to lead
|
[1515.68 --> 1517.04] or to pray in front of people
|
[1517.04 --> 1518.34] or to love people
|
[1518.34 --> 1519.46] who are difficult to love
|
[1519.46 --> 1520.18] or to serve
|
[1520.18 --> 1521.36] in different capacities,
|
[1521.72 --> 1522.66] but in some way
|
[1522.66 --> 1523.46] or another, church,
|
[1524.54 --> 1525.46] you're the body of Christ.
|
[1525.54 --> 1526.48] We're all the body of Christ.
|
[1526.58 --> 1527.24] We are all called
|
[1527.24 --> 1527.96] to these things.
|
[1527.96 --> 1530.42] Take our church's
|
[1530.42 --> 1531.02] mission statement,
|
[1531.12 --> 1531.52] for example.
|
[1531.62 --> 1532.66] Perhaps gathering
|
[1532.66 --> 1533.42] or growing
|
[1533.42 --> 1534.74] or going right now
|
[1534.74 --> 1535.92] just seems difficult.
|
[1536.14 --> 1537.32] It seems too hard for us.
|
[1537.38 --> 1538.78] It seems that we're not
|
[1538.78 --> 1539.76] qualified to do that.
|
[1540.68 --> 1541.58] It's too difficult
|
[1541.58 --> 1542.46] for us to accomplish.
|
[1544.42 --> 1546.18] But God doesn't call us
|
[1546.18 --> 1546.66] to these things
|
[1546.66 --> 1547.54] because we're qualified.
|
[1549.24 --> 1550.26] It's quite the opposite,
|
[1550.42 --> 1550.58] actually.
|
[1550.64 --> 1551.56] God calls us
|
[1551.56 --> 1552.38] to do these things
|
[1552.38 --> 1553.72] in spite of our qualifications.
|
[1553.72 --> 1553.96] Christians.
|
[1556.02 --> 1556.72] It's only then
|
[1556.72 --> 1557.54] that God gets to be
|
[1557.54 --> 1558.62] ultimately glorified.
|
[1561.02 --> 1561.86] The Apostle Paul
|
[1561.86 --> 1563.06] says this so beautifully
|
[1563.06 --> 1563.70] in one of his letters
|
[1563.70 --> 1565.48] to the church in Corinth.
|
[1565.64 --> 1566.44] He says this thousands
|
[1566.44 --> 1567.44] and thousands of years later.
|
[1567.54 --> 1568.02] He says this.
|
[1568.06 --> 1568.28] He says,
|
[1568.36 --> 1569.08] Brothers and sisters,
|
[1569.88 --> 1571.04] this is not actually very kind,
|
[1571.10 --> 1571.92] but it's a really good point.
|
[1572.00 --> 1572.12] He's like,
|
[1572.18 --> 1572.78] Brothers and sisters,
|
[1572.96 --> 1573.98] not many of you
|
[1573.98 --> 1574.78] were wise
|
[1574.78 --> 1576.02] by human standards.
|
[1577.10 --> 1578.48] Not many were influential.
|
[1579.68 --> 1581.34] Not many are of noble birth.
|
[1581.34 --> 1584.30] But God chose
|
[1584.30 --> 1585.76] the foolish things
|
[1585.76 --> 1586.72] of this world
|
[1586.72 --> 1588.68] to shame the wise.
|
[1589.74 --> 1591.20] God chose the weak things
|
[1591.20 --> 1591.86] of the world
|
[1591.86 --> 1594.04] to shame the strong
|
[1594.04 --> 1596.10] so that no one
|
[1596.10 --> 1597.66] may boast before him.
