 Yes, the recording has started. Anyone, could you please lead in prayer? Dave, Prince, Kanan. Okay, I'll pray. Yes. There and the Father will come before you. Thank you Lord God for this day again. Okay, thank you. And you have given us this opportunity once again to come together and ask and learn Lord Jesus. Thank you. For everything that we have done for us last week and we pray that this week we continue to do and care for each one of us and help each one of us for the next time. I think we're about to learn Lord Jesus and help each one of us to obey and be someone who does what the word says, who does what we listen and let each one of us feel a person who obeys your word. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Dave. So we're going through 2nd Peter and we were in the last chapter there. So today we'll touch upon that and I was thinking I would start Jude but I'll see. Maybe I'll start James and then come back to Jude. We'll see how it goes. So let's go back to 2nd Peter chapter 3. So in the book of 2nd Peter so far we have seen that Peter has that sense of encouragement for the believers and he always seems to do that. He first starts off by encouraging them, reminding them that this world is but temporary and that we have a permanent place in heaven. So our inheritance is permanent. What the Lord Jesus has done in us is deeper than what the world has to offer. So in chapter 1 we saw how he says, add to your faith and then he keeps saying, okay you have all these precious promises through which you can partake of the divine nature of God and keep growing in your faith, become stronger in God, develop all these godly qualities and everything and then he suddenly changes his instruction to warning about false apostles and then he describes how false apostles are very subtle, secretively they come in, they have destructive heresies which obviously they go against God's word and when we follow them they will destroy, they destroy the teacher as well as the listeners. So he's really warning the believers and saying, please don't get caught up in these things. So that's where we were. We saw the qualities of such apostles who are for gain and for profit and benefit and not thinking so much about the spiritual growth of the listeners. Then we saw that they like popularity, they like fame and so it's a very selfish and self-willed attitude that these false apostles carry. So now coming to chapter 3, we had just started and over here again he goes on to stir up the believers by way of reminder and he says okay that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets and the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Saviour. So it's really encouraging to note that you know somebody like Peter who had been with Jesus who is part of the apostles, he is speaking to the listeners here. Now let's go forward from here and see what other things he has to say and I think we touched on this as well. He said in the last days there will be scoffers. Scoffers are those who will mock or make fun of what has been said. So we know that the Lord Jesus promised, he said I'm going to come back, I'm going to take those who believe in me, with me. So you know the rapture, the second coming and things like that. So there are people or these are you know part of those false teachers and apostles and the people who are actually not following God, he just puts them in one category and says scoffers. They question, they ask where is the promise of His coming? Where is the promise of His coming? Since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation. Now you know this is, you could say that it sounds very logical. But then in the core of what is being said here there is unbelief. There is sort of competing against what God has spoken. So it's not a sincere question, where is the promise of His coming? We can ask a sincere question, when is He really coming? You know and then search and try to find the answer. That is one way, that is the right heart with which we ask such a question. But scoffers are those who mock. So when they ask the question, they ask with the attitude that we know it's not going to happen. Where is God? Where is His promise? When is He going to return? So you know the people who carry an attitude of pride, they are self-willed and they are full of unbelief. They question what the word of God itself says and then He goes on. He says they willfully forget that by the word of God the heavens were of old and the earth standing out of water and in the water. So He brings our attention to the importance of the word of God and reminds the believers, don't you know that the world itself was formed by the word of God. So how is it that there are people with this kind of an attitude and a heart of unbelief who question the very word of God? And he goes on to say that by the word of God by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. So every occurrence on the earth has taken place because of the word of God. And so the word of God has the power to create and here he is also referring to the flood which actually destroyed the earth. And so the word of God has both the power to create as well as to destroy if required. But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word. So you see it's amazing. The word of God creates, the word of God also sustains. So it says the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the word are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. So he also reminds the believers that there is coming a day when there will be judgment and not just the judgment of people. Whether they accepted Christ or not, whether they lived their lives by doing righteous acts that honor God. But he also talks about the effect of the judgment on the heavens and the earth. So that's also the creation of God. The creation of God, the living creation of God would be people. But then God has also created a lot of other things, heavens and the earth and even the heavens and the earth. So all this is going to be affected on the day of judgment. And you notice that he is specifically pointing out and saying that ungodly men, they will be judged on that day. So it's a very, very sort of a thing to be cautious about, alert about, warned about that. People will be judged for their right as well as the wrong that they do. Now coming to verse 8 here, but he says, beloved, do not forget this one thing that the Lord one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise as some count slackness, but is long suffering toward us. Not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night. So he once again makes a comparison to remind the believers that when mockers or scoffers ask the question, when is it going to be? In our calculation, it seems like God is taking a very long time, but we have to understand that God lives outside of time. So the days, the years, the months that pass by, for us it feels like God has forgotten about His promise and there is a delay. But he says it's almost like if you ask an adult about a week that was spent, generally an adult would say, oh, it was a quick week. There was so much work to do and I was so busy and the week just went by Monday to, you know, by next Sunday. I didn't even realize. But if you ask a child, for a child it could feel like that one week is a very long time. And let's say, you know, they have exams or they have holidays, they're able to feel or sense that the time is so long. So depending on who they are, the same length of time seems shorter or longer. And similarly, he reminds us, look, for God, you know, a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as a day. So in God's calculation, he's not delaying anything. We are the ones in our perception who are wondering if the Lord is taking very long. But God is faithful. He will fulfill His word. And again, he refers to the day of judgment. Many things we can learn about the day of judgment. You know, what is going to happen, those who have gone against God, they are going to be judged. So it's a very scary time for them. And also, now he says, it will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise and the elements will melt with fervent heat. Both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. So few features he gives here. It will come as a thief in the night. Or we don't know exactly when that day is going to be, when judgment takes place. So this is only in the knowledge of the Lord. For others, a thief comes unannounced. And that's why he tries to describe it like that. So when the Lord, you know, his judgments, all these things are going to take place. It will be unknown to his creatures, but you know, God will still do it. And then he talks about the heavens will pass away with a great noise and the elements will melt with fervent heat. Both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. So he is talking about, you know, different events that take place. We know that the heavens and the earth are going to be renewed into the new heavens and the new earth. And the destruction of the earth at that time, it will take place through fire. Okay. And so all that he's referring to and he's saying, look, those days are coming. Again, it's like he's tying this into what he talked of in 1 Peter chapter 1. Where he said that in heaven we have like uncorruptible inheritance. Those things cannot be destroyed, but this world is temporary. It is going to come to an end. So in a sense, if you want to just tie it into what we learned about false teachers and false apostles, we recognize that he's saying they think that their gains are going to last with them for a lifetime. But that's not a long period of time. What is really important for everyone to remember is that all this is going to come to an end and then there is judgment. And we have to answer the Lord. We have to give an account for our lives. We have to, you know, stand before the Lord and we better have done things the way God wants us to do. Now coming here to verse 11. So he says, so now you understood that this world is temporary, judgment is coming, all that. Therefore, because of this, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hazing the coming of the day of God? Because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire and the elements will melt with fervent heat. Nevertheless, we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. So, you know, Peter's perspective is throughout you, you see that he's saying, look, this world is temporal. Don't strive to accumulate in this world. Now, we should not misunderstand that the Bible wants us to live a life where we are disconnected from the world. All of you are Bible college students, you have studied various subjects about history and philosophies. And you know that in Christian history, there have been groups that have preached that this world is not important. So don't worry. You know, you don't have to do well in this life. What is the point of being successful or having resources in this life? All these things don't matter because ultimately, we're all going to go to heaven and that is our permanent place. So there are groups which have taken this truth to the extreme. But we know that what the Lord Jesus told us to do even in John chapter 17. Do you all remember? We studied the book of John together. He told that, you know, these people, Lord, these disciples whom you have given me, I'm not asking that you take them away from this world or don't take them out of this world, but you help them to live for you in this world. They're not of this world, but they are here as my representatives. And Jesus also did the same thing. He was also not of this world. Many times he said that I'm not of this world. And imagine if he never came to the earth, we will be missing a huge portion of God's plan of redemption. And so us living on the earth is a very important thing. And we are here as overcomers. We are here as people who must, you know, Jesus says this, occupy till I come. Which means that we are supposed to live our purpose and do our assignment and see an increase for the kingdom of God here on the earth. And we are not called to live a disconnected life. So we are here very much following the principles of God, doing well and also serving the kingdom of God. But we must carry an eternal perspective throughout and that's the way we have to implement what we are studying. So don't ever say that, hey, this life is not important, we're all going to heaven and that is what is, you know, our focus. So that's not the interpretation of what we are saying. So now that he has emphasized eternal perspective and we have understood the correct way of understanding, correct way of taking it. Now, once again, you know what Peter says here is, he says, because the world is temporary, everything will be dissolved. So have a godly life. Remember, that has also been his emphasis. He said that you are living in a world, you had a life which, you know, you were partying and, you know, you were living in sin. You were doing things that were pleasing your flesh. But now that you are in Christ Jesus, you have to partake of the divine nature of God. And the divine nature of God is a nature which is holy, you know, which is truthful, which is godly, all those things. So the life and the character of the believer must also be godly. That's so important. And again, know his emphasis here, you ought to be or ought is a way of saying you must be. It's not an option. You ought to be in holy conduct and godliness. So that simply means if I call myself a believer, I should be a godly person. I should be a God fearing person. If I'm not a God fearing person and if I call myself a believer and I'm living my life however I like, that is not biblical. Okay, now moving forward. One more thing he says that, okay, now that we understood that this world is passing away. Another important thing we should carry in our hearts is we must be eager about the return of the Lord Jesus. So yes, there are phrases like thief in the night. Jesus will come like a thief in the night. All these ways of explaining the second coming and the return of the Lord Jesus are there in the Bible. But for a believer we need a sense of readiness. Do you remember the parable of the 10 virgins where we are told that Jesus will come back and that is very certain. So the foolish virgins, what did they do? They were not ready. But the wise virgins, they were ready with the oil for the lamp. And that is nothing but oil of intimacy. They had developed, strengthened their relationship with the Lord and they were waiting that, okay, Jesus is going to come back. Jesus is going to come back. So it's a heart which is eager and waiting for the bridegroom. Does a bride regret and is she upset that the bridegroom is going to come when they're going to get married? No, in fact she's eager and waiting and we as the church, we are the bride of Christ. And so what should be our attitude? Our attitude should be that we are excited. We are looking for Jesus. And so this thief in the night, when the thief comes, we don't know. When did he come? That's the way people are surprised by a thief coming. For a believer, the return of the Lord Jesus should not be a surprise. Exactly when is he coming? We don't know. Because that is something only God knows and Jesus said that only the Father knows the time of his return. But then we as his bride, the church is expectant. We know he is going to come. He is going to come. I have to be ready. I have to be prepared so on and so forth. That's the attitude we must carry. And so even when you read the books of 1st and 2nd Thessalonians, Paul writes to the believers and says, be eager that your Savior is going to return. So when you look at the 1st century church, they did not have an understanding of the timelines. Maybe through revelation, some of them understood. But all of them expected Jesus to return in their lifetime. That is how they have lived. And when did Peter write this? Peter also wrote, we said somewhere around 60 AD. That's when Peter wrote this episode. Even at that time, he is telling the believers Jesus can come back anytime, be ready. So their expectation was that Jesus will come back in their lifetime. So they live their lives with that kind of an eagerness. So you imagine how much more we as believers should know, we should be prepared, we should be excited that Jesus is going to come back. And so when scoffers or people who ask the question, oh really? Is he coming back? When people ask a question like that, we feel the pain. What is it? People are not understanding God's word is so real. The world was formed by his word. The world is sustained by his word. And he has spoken that he is going to come back. He is going to come back. We are waiting for him to come back. And then all the other details, every part of what we are reading, if you go into the depths of it, it's so amazing. It says heavens will be dissolved, being on fire and the elements will melt with fervent heat. Sometimes I wonder as a science student, I wonder why Lord earlier God destroyed with a flood. Why is he going to destroy with fire? I don't know. Maybe it's going to take high temperatures to... There are some elements in the earth which is very difficult to melt those metals and substances. Only God knows how this world can be renewed. And maybe that is why scriptures say that there is going to be a fire. Being on fire, everything will be dissolved and God is going to recreate or he is going to renew the earth and the heavens. So his promise is true. So finally the end of verse 13, he says, Nevertheless we according to his promise look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. So what is the passion of God? God has always wanted a people for himself and a people of righteousness. That is why he was working with Israel. But we know that after the Lord Jesus died, he was crucified on the cross. That promise of having a people that spread to many others. The Gentiles came into the fold in all the nations of the world. That's why in the book of Revelation you see that people from every tribe, every tongue, they're all there, they're all there and they are worshiping the Lord Jesus Christ. So all these people now together are that holy nation. Remember that Peter talked about? He said, you are a royal priest to the holy nation. And that's what God wanted. He wanted his own people. And what should be the characteristics of this holy people of God? Righteousness. He wants a righteous people. He wants a godly people. He wants a holy people. And why is this earth going to be renewed through fire? Because the corruption of sin ultimately through the redemptive work of God, all these things are going to take place and even the corrupted earth is going to be renewed. So God is making everything new and he wants everything to be righteous. And God wants to be done away with sin completely. And that's the kind of future we are all looking at. We are looking at the rule and reign of Christ and we're all looking at a righteous nation, a righteous people, that is all of us who are saved by the blood of Jesus. Now verse 14, he says, therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things. So he says, come on, this is so exciting. He's ending his second letter and whenever we end our letters, we say, right, or we end our class, of course, we'll say, hey, I'm looking forward to meeting all of you. Whenever you can, please come to Bangalore, things like that. So he's excited. He's excited about the truth that he has just taught and about the people. And so he says, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by him in peace. So he says, come on, we have this eternal kingdom. We have a bright future. We are all looking forward for a land where there's going to be righteousness. So I'm telling you, be diligent. Remember, diligent, we said, to keep at something or don't give up. Be doing that because that's the right thing to do. Be diligent to be found by him. Or in other words, he's simply saying, see, we are in Christ Jesus. But do you also know, you know, as the word of God says that seek him and you shall find him. So God wants an active pursuit of him. Now, when as believers, we say, I already know God and, you know, it's fine. You know, I'm very happy with my life. And that's it. What I know about God till today. Great. I'm very happy with it. But we see in the Bible, God wants us to go after him. And remember, we said the progression in our faith journey. Add to your faith of virtue, knowledge. So we have to keep going higher in God. Or you may want to say, we have to keep going deeper in God. Or we have to keep going wider. Understand his love more. Okay, I understood about God's love when I was 16 years old. I understood more about God's love when I was 18 years old. You know, in that manner, what's happening? Wider, wider, wider, wider. So my understanding of God is increasing. Again, it's a call to maturity. It's a call to a deeper walk with God. And so he says, come on, what a life we have. What a promise we have. What a future we have. So why, come on, why shouldn't we be diligent or careful to be found in him? Or in him, we have to be in Christ, continuing to pursue him more and more. So be found by him. And then he says, in peace, in peace is what? Obviously, he's a God of peace. And therefore that is something that fills our lives when we are pursuing him. And then he says, without spot and blameless, that is holiness. Okay, or sinlessness. So he says, with peace, by being sinful. And consider that the long suffering of our Lord is salvation. So he's giving an explanation to the question that the scoffers are asking. They are saying, where is God? When is he going to come? He said, he's coming, he's coming. It's 2000 years. He never came. So for that, he's giving an answer. And he's saying, God's long suffering is salvation. Or he's saying, in other words, don't you realize God is giving extra time? So that more people can hear the gospel. More people can be saved. More people can come into the fold and all that. So just because God is waiting, it doesn't mean he has forgotten his promise. But even in that, he's being very kind to us. And that should make us happy. So the last part of verse 15, as also our beloved brother Paul. According to the wisdom given to him has written to you as also in all his episodes, speaking in them of these things in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the scriptures. So now he's making a reference to Paul. Now we have to understand the dynamics between Peter and Paul. Initially, when Paul became a believer, nobody was ready to accept Paul because they thought he's pretending he is an imposter. He will come and pretend like he's a Christian and he will persecute us. So nobody was willing to talk to him. And we know from what apostle Paul says that he spent time with James. But then you don't really see that he spent a lot of time with anyone else. And we also know that once Peter was rebuked by Paul because what happened was Peter was, when there were Jews, he was not eating with the Gentiles. But when the Jews were away, he was eating with the Gentiles. So he was maintaining double standards before the Jews and Paul did not like it. He said, come on, Peter, make up your mind. If these people are saved, then why are you trying to please the Jews? You decide whether you want to fellowship with the Gentiles or you don't want to fellowship with the Gentiles. So there is a rebuk also which Paul had issued. Now, even though all these things had happened between Peter and Paul, you see the respect which Peter carries and he carries respect for Paul even though Paul was not one among the twelve. So all these things speak a lot about the interaction among leaders and their brotherly love for one another. And he says, beloved brother Paul, so he was happy with Paul by this time and he had seen, understood the ministry of Paul. One more thing he says, see there are letters which Paul has also written and what is Peter's occupation? Peter was a fisherman. Whereas what does Paul, when it comes to his education, his work profile and his social standing, he was a scholarly person. He was trained under Gamaliel and he was well-versed in the Jewish scriptures. So he says, some things which Paul wrote, it's too difficult to understand. So Peter is being very honest here. He says, speaking of these things, some of these things that I'm telling you, Paul has also written and he says some things are hard to understand. So maybe because of the scholarly vein which you know Paul put things across, it was hard for Peter and he also says that there are people or there were people during their times who took the so-called mysteries that Paul wrote about and they twisted those mysteries. Don't you think this is so unfortunate that God's word can be twisted? It's very scary. Why would somebody twist God's word? But here is the fact, okay, all Bible college students. As I was, I think I told you in the last class also, we can take any passage of scripture and with the wrong motivation in our heart, we can make it sound like what we like. For example, if I want to, you know, condemn a poor person, I could just take any passage of scripture and say that, you know, God is the God of blessing. How come you're not blessed? So God said that the Lord is my shepherd. I will not want you are in need. That means something is wrong with you. You didn't pray enough or I can twist it the other way. I can make it sound like God doesn't like the rich people. So it is hard for a rich man to enter. It is easy for a camel to enter the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Are these verses there in the Bible? They are there. But we know Bible college, we have studied hermeneutics. We have to interpret scripture in the light of scripture. So when we look at other passages, the Bible very clearly says that even the poor, they are rich in the sight of God. It says in the book of James, we are going to see that. We also see that somebody who's rich, wealth and riches are in the house of a blessed man, a man who fears the Lord. So if it is not God's blessing, then why is it that God is giving people wealth and riches? There's nothing wrong with wealth and riches. So you see, I want to say something. I can make the scripture say it. That is the most dangerous thing that is what Peter is talking about. He's saying that there are people who take scripture and they twist it to say whatever they want to say. Now we should not be among those people. When we read the Bible, the Bible is actually simple in the sense that it is saying one thing. Our way of understanding the Bible is I have to search or study to find out what is God trying to say. Once I understand what God is trying to say, I stick with it. Simple, finished. That is about interpreting scripture. So I understood the meaning of it. Okay, so then God is not upset with the poor. God is not upset with the rich also. But the poor have to behave in a certain way. The rich have to behave in a certain way. Okay, great. So every time I preach, I preach the same thing because the truth can't change. My understanding can deepen, but the truth remains the same. So there's no question of twisting the scriptures. But unfortunately Peter says, look, there are people, they take up all these mysteries and things that even Paul has written about and they are twisting the scriptures. So that's really sad and beware of these things. Okay, then he moves on. In conclusion, he says, you therefore beloved, you see how many times is beloved, beloved, beloved. That again shows us the relationship that the apostle had with the people. People were never treated like, okay, I'm going to tell you, you do it. You know, like lords over God's people. We've seen that. Don't lord over God's people, but they really have a heart for God's people like this is the bride of Christ. And here we are preparing the bride for the return of the bride group. That is why there is a great sense of respect. There's a great sense of love towards God's people. He says, therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware. I told us that second Peter is a warning. He says, beware, lest you also fall away from your own steadfastness. So you see, basically just tells us that there is a possibility for a believer to go away from God. And we've discussed this many times. So since we know that, let's be careful. We have to stand strong, always pursue after God. Then being led away with the error of the wicked, but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. So once again, he says, don't follow these people. We're teaching you wrong things, but you continue to grow. So growing what in God's empowering in God's knowledge and the knowledge about Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to him be the glory both now and forever. Amen. So that was their way of exalting God, like let glory be to God. And he closes with amen over there. Now come on, let's go to, I think let's go to Jude. I think we will be able to do Jude. So if you could please go in your Bibles to Jude. Okay, what we'll do is now we will quickly read through the book of Jude. Okay, and then we will go back and try to explain. I'll probably just summarize and not do it verse by verse, but you'll have the whole meaning of what is being said. So I want one person or maybe two people to read it full chapter. Can anybody do that? Yes, yes, Dave, you can read the whole, read the whole thing. Okay, okay. Jude, I'm reading from an idea. Yeah. Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of Jesus. So those who have been called, who are loved in God, the father and tip for Jesus Christ. Mercy, peace and love be yours in our lives. Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compiled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all interested to God's holy people. For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are unworthy people who prevent the grace of our God into a license for immorality and denied Jesus Christ as only sovereign and Lord. Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the Lord at one time delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not today. And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwellings. These he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting change for judgment on that great day. In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They served as an example of those who suffered the punishment of eternal fire. In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams, those ordinary people pollute their own bodies, rejects authority and keep abuse on celestial beings. But even the Archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said the Lord will give you. Yet these people slander whatever they do not understand. And the very thing they do understand by instinct or irrational animals do. We destroy them, go to them. They have taken the way of him. They have rushed for profit into a balanced error. They have been destroyed in chorus rebellion. These people are blemish at your loved fish eating with you without the slightest harm. Shepherds who feed only themselves, they are clouded without rain blown away by the wind. Autumn fish without fruit and uprooted. They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their skin, wondering stars for whom blackest darkness had been reserved forever. Inoc the seventh from Adam prophesied about them. See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of fish for the one. To judge everyone and to convict all of them, of all the ungrateful acts they have committed in their ungodliness and of all defined words ungodlinessiness has spoken against him. These people are gamblers, fault-finders. They follow their own evil desires. They boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage. But dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord, we as Christ foretold. They said to you, in the last times there will be scuffers who will follow their own ungodly desires. These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit. But you, dear friends, be building yourself up in your most holy state and praying in the Holy Spirit. Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life. Be merciful to those who doubt. Save others by snatching them from the fire. To others, so mercy, mixed with fear, hitting even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh. To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without thought and with great joy to the only God our Savior, the glory, majesty, power and authority to Jesus Christ our Lord before all ages now and forever. Amen. Thank you, Dave. That's a really long passage. But thank you for reading it and I think it'll give us some understanding of what is there in this passage. I'll come back and it's quite easy because it's similar to what we've been saying about apostates and apostasy. So I will share some key points over here and let's see if we can also jump into James today. So let's take a break class at 10 o'clock. Yeah, 10 o'clock. Come back at 10 o'clock. We'll continue. Thank you.
