How To Setup LifterLMS Settings For Your WordPress Online Course Website - Duration: 27:48.
Alright so now working actually take a look at the learning management system and I'm
to show you how to do the initial configuration for the learning management system so first
it's right here LifterLMS and when you activated it adds unfortunately it adds a lot of menu
items here but that's okay because it's going to make it easier to organize everything so
it adds this one right here LifterLMS and it's can be our main settings and reporting
and all that number and explain all these options and then it adds a courses tab and
this is where you can organize your your courses and your lessons in your quizzes and manager
reviews are to do all that right here and then you have a same right here for memberships
and is honestly less options because memberships are pretty much course bundles and other protected
content on your website engagements is really awesome and working to go through this as
well this is how you can automatically send emails and generate certificates to your students
and this is such a power feature right here and then here is the orders and this is working
to manage all the orders to be able to create coupon codes in your also to be able to use
this really cool voucher system I use that all the time if you ordered InMotion hosting
or Elementor and he said hey give me access to that course you promised me the way I do
it as I email you a voucher and then it's all done it makes it so much easier to give
people access to your courses or to sell access your courses maybe at a seminar or something
along those lines where you're not doing it all digitally or on line so let's click on
LifterLMS in first go through the settings and will give it the initial configuration
okay so this is kind of your dashboard right here in its your activity for the week and
this is actually really cool I love the fact that they have this in right here you can
see all your enrollments for the week registrations net sales and how many lessons people have
marked completed and these are numbers that you always want to see going up obviously
the lessons completed shows you that people are using your course are going through the
materials and you want to always be pushing these numbers up but there's also a reporting
area but this is just your kind of overview in your dashboard scroll on down this page
bed so right here is going to be the version of LifterLMS that you have I suggest you always
keep it updated because they're always making little tweaks and they happen pretty amazing
at adding features to make the platform more powerful just this last week they added a
feature where someone marks a lesson complete they can also go back and market uncompleted
in case they accidentally did that so right here is going to let you know the version
number and you can keep upgrading it whenever they have one out and then down here are some
tools and utilities that you might need to use from time to time if they tell you if
you're having any kind of issues or you need any kind of support they might tell you to
click on any of these buttons right here now I've never needed to click on any of these
buttons and hopefully you won't either so that he is the general tab and then we have
these various tabs right here that are the different areas that we need to configure
in LifterLMS order to do that all right now versus I can look at courses and so here is
the settings for courses and what I like about this platform is it's not an overwhelming
amount of settings so we just really have these four settings on this page and we really
actually don't even need to change anything on it now right here was that option I was
just telling about if you want and make it so that your students can mark a lesson as
incomplete if they make a mistake you can enable or leave it disabled right here I haven't
even considered whether I want to enable it myself right here is where you specify course
catalog notes that page where LifterLMS just takes over so I don't like to use that as
my course catalog XM and I'll walk you through deleting this page in a later video and so
this is the settings right here for that page boring to do it manually with that short code
that we used to create the course catalog page in the prior video next six take a look
at memberships and it's pretty much going to be the same thing when I can attach any
of these settings same thing word takes over that page but right here's an interesting
feature if you want to restrict your entire site and making in a membership site and the
whole thing is a locked down to only people that have access to this membership you could
do it right here this is actually a newer feature and I haven't really thought you all
the best use case scenarios of it so essentially it's just going to lock down your entire site
and the only people that are going to be able to access it or people that have purchased
your membership I guess this would be good if you had lots of courses and you had a single
membership and there's all kinds of things going on your website and content you want
to block the whole thing down globally that's essentially what this is going to do is lock
your entire website down globally perhaps I can actually make a video on this because
I could see people wanting to do this that want to use LifterLMS to create an entire
membership website so will touch on that in a later video most likely so next is a councils
go ahead and click on that and these are just the settings for the members dashboard note
the members dashboard it's not like the course index page in the membership index page were
just totally takes over the page we should actually change this from the one that the
default installation selected to the one that we created so go on the drop down right here
and I'm in the selected it's this right here members dashboard someone go ahead and select
on that now these are just some of the technical aspects of all those tabs that it automatically
generates its best to leave these the way they are but I think the reason they put this
here is if your websites can be in a different language you can put these page slugs in the
language that you wanted to be in your native tongue so let's scroll down next are some
important options there the user information options and these are the requirements and
restrictions when someone is creating an account or checking out so you're gonna want to understand
this and you're going to make want to make the best decision for yourself so the first
option right here is disable user names I actually like this this is essentially configuring
your system so that when someone is creating account in their purchasing a course that
they don't get the option to select a username when they log into your website therein or
just use the email address that they have and I really like this I would suggest keeping
this checked nexus is password strength and actually this kind gets on my nerves I mean
my online course website is not NASA I don't need this restrictive password policy to put
on my users and it's going to kind of frustrate them if I make them use a bunch of special
characters and their password that they're knocking to remember anyway I mean our courses
are valuable but it's not like this is the NSA or the or something like that and it's
life or death information I'm not gonna force someone to use some insane password so I actually
recommend changing this from strong to maybe medium or weak and actually week is totally
fine it's up to you I receive someone's going to use password is there password you can
prevent that if you let this be the on the week setting however I'm not necessarily so
opposed to having that because someone wanted to break into your website they would need
another persons email address anyway so right here is this additional password strength
meter I don't like that either some and uncheck that so anyways you can choose whatever you
want based upon the security you want on your site if you are going to make this a strong
I do suggest having this checkbox checked so that people can know if they're not making
a password that meets your requirements next we have this option to make it so someone
has to agree to your terms and conditions and then right here you can actually have
a link to a special terms and conditions page that you would want to make on your website
I don't use this personally but if you wanted to you can go ahead and add that now right
here is that check out fields thing that I was talking about a prior video where by default
it's going to make them put a first and last name and I suggest you keep that is a requirement
but the address you know this is like a digital online world I don't care what your address
is so I suggest if you don't have a reason to capture someone's address changes from
required to hidden I prefer a more simplified checkout process and there's plenty of studies
that show the more questions you ask when someone is checking out the lower the conversion
is going to be so I make that head and I don't want your phone number I make that hidden
just like that we can leave this checked right here the email confirmation that so when someone's
checking out they have to type in their email a second time just so that they make sure
they enter it right I tell you on my website before I was using this people would create
an account with the wrong email address and it we can create a support headache for me
because now they're asking me where their email is when they didn't actually put their
email incorrectly because they're just moving too fast and so this is going to be a good
option for you to have checked even though some kind of a pain for the person but it's
gonna prevent the support that comes your way now this open registration field option
this is up to you I personally do not use it but I have a different flow that I use
on my website so whether or not you enable or disable this is going to be based upon
if you're going to use the voucher system and if you're going to have a free course
available for someone so here's how my system works I have a free course and when I want
to give someone access to a paid course I send them a voucher and I give them instructions
to order my free course which will create an account on the website and then in their
member's dashboard they can go in and redeem the voucher now if you don't want to have
a similar workflow and you're going to use the voucher system you can enable this open
registration so someone can come to your website register and then we can have a box there
were they can put that voucher in so it's completely up to you I personally don't use
this but just in case you're going to use it now or later let's change that address
the hidden because that's consistent with how I am already setting this up so down here
is the account field update and so this one summons and their members dashboard and you
give them an option to update their account this is what they can update so I don't ask
for the address omen to make that hidden and I don't ask for the phone number and I'm in
a make that hidden however if you are collecting people's address and phone number you dimpling
and I want to have this not be hidden and have it be optional so I'm going to click
on save changes so we can save some of these changes I've already made, click on checkouts
and let's look at the options here now this is perhaps one of the most important settings
pages that we have here and it's going to set up our payment processor and those different
options so here we are the checkout settings we don't need to change the checkout page
we don't need to change the confirm payment force SSL now I am to have a video and I actually
have videos on my channel about getting a free SSL certificate essentially fury to take
payments on your website you have to have an SSL certificate so that all the the credit
card information and all that as it gets passed through your website it's encrypted that is
what an SSL certificate does now in this video series we are going to be using PayPal and
when someone makes their payment there can actually be sent off to PayPal however I will
add a video for those of you that want to take a payment on your website on exactly
how to accomplish that and it's very possible to integrate stripe which is the most popular
way to accept credit card payments on your website so even though if we are going to
use an SSL certificate were not can even need this option because we would just make the
entire website HTTPS or make the entire website be served up over SSL sorry if that got a
little technical they're definitely not my intention okay currency options set your country
set your currency and then said how you want the currency label position to be and this
is all stuff that you should know for your country you can just go ahead and set that
in there you can hide the zero decimals if you want I'm just gonna leave that all default
so here we go with PayPal now I included in the download package a plug-in that when you
installed it and activated it it makes it so you would now have this option if you didn't
follow along in the video where I'm uploading the plug-ins and activating them you're not
going to see this options you might want to go back and do that so we do need to have
a way to take payments on this website for these courses now PayPal is a very common
way to sell goods on the Internet and we have some PayPal integration right here so first
you check on this box to enable it and then right here you can change the title that someone
sees during checkout and then the description so this would be the option you should know
I'll leave the same PayPal and pay with PayPal so it's crystal clear that someone's paying
via PayPal now if you had a multiple gateway situation this is where maybe you had stripe
and PayPal which is actually a good idea to give people options of how they want to check
out you can choose the order set the order right here which ones can be first which ones
going to be second now if you're testing the PayPal integration you'll check on this box
and if you're having some issues and you need to potentially debug it you would check on
this box now when you are going live with your payments your office again I need to
uncheck this in your you need to uncheck this as well so here's where it's going to get
a little technical and there is going to be some information that Juergen have to do on
your own and it's a little on the complicated side so the way the PayPal integration works
is you need to go to PayPal and get three pieces of information you need to get an API
username an API password and an API signature and when you put those three pieces of information
right here your learning management system will be fully integrated with PayPal now here's
where it's a little different okay if you have an old PayPal account now I'm talking
a PayPal account that might be five or 10 years old my PayPal account is actually 15
years old if you can believe that those old accounts any of them you have access to create
an API username password and signature you just have it because you have one of these
grandfathered old accounts of your creating a new PayPal account or as a more recent PayPal
account maybe within the last year or two you actually have to upgrade it to a business
account it snores no cost in doing it but you do have to go in and put in some business
information or whatnot and there's actually phone number for PayPal that you can call
to get that all squared away now all you have to do is click on this link and is can he
give you the instructions on PayPal's website to get your API username password and signature
you need those in your you need the pesos in here in order to get your PayPal integration
going now if you wanted to use a different payment processor that's fine they do have
some add-ons that LifterLMS provides you can click on the add-ons tab and they have an
add-on for stripe just you know Juergen have to purchase that from them if you want the
stripe integration and essentially stripes can allow you to take credit card payments
on your website and is a little easier to set up to take the credit card payments on
your website but if you're just starting out PayPal is going to be totally fine I use PayPal
I don't use stripe it all I might add it at some point but I don't even use it now so
essentially just need to get these three pieces of information from PayPal and save this and
your PayPal would start working here's a prefix for the invoice that's going to show on PayPal
this would just be something that you would have to so you know where this payment came
from so you can have any prefix you want in order to identify those different payments
that people are making and with PayPal there's instructions is actually really cool you can
modify the checkout pages style on page Powell's website so you can have it have your logo
and things like that and there's a link here with information that's actually really easy
to do now if you're going to sell anything that is going to have reoccurring transactions
so that's if you want to sell something and they have to have this reoccurring payment
you have to enable something called the reference transactions on PayPal's website and what
that is is when PayPal is automatically taken out that next payment and that next payment
that is pushing those transactions and that information into LifterLMS so the to stay
in sync so you're in a need to enable reference transactions just go ahead and click on this
link right here and they'll have all the information about it I personally don't have reoccurring
transactions but it's pretty easy to set up and then once it's enabled on your account
you can click this check button and it will verify that you actually have that in the
right here you have a manual gateway if you wanted to sell course access via check or
something like that you can enable this or disable this I'm actually to go ahead and
disable it now I'll just leave it enabled why not so if you don't want this go ahead
and uncheck right here are some go ahead and click on save changes and now when I click
on the engagement tab now engagements are you engaging with your students when they
are going through the process of taking your course and we actually set those up here in
the engagements tab but for the setting this is where working to set the settings of what
those emails are to look at so for instance the sender's email address so for me I actually
like to keep it adamant WB see the name of sender my blog I probably wouldn't want that
so for me I would put this and that's how I like it to look and then you can put some
text here that will show in the footer of the email and you can have maybe a logo appear
in the header of those emails that can further brand the emails that get sent to people and
then we have the certificate settings right here in this is essentially if someone completes
a course you can issue a certificate and is actually a good idea because some people like
me personally I wouldn't print it out or anything but if there's some kind of academic aspect
of your online course in your online learning platform that your building you have this
certificate option here or you can have it automatically generate and send a certificate
of completion or an award or something like that this is actually good component of game
of vacation where people get these rewards and so that would be technically over reward
issuing out a certificate like this so go ahead and see my changes thus far and lastly
we have this integrations tab so essentially there's these two WordPress plug-ins once
called BB press and once called Buddy press now what these do is they add different features
to your website but it comes at a cost of complexity so BB presses GNU enable you to
have a user forum on your website and buddy press is actually, like bring in an entire
social network onto your website personally I don't use either of them I don't recommend
using either of them because they are highly complicated and it's can add some complication
to your website now I am to make a video on how to create a user form now the user form
solution that I like is more of a questions and answer solution similar to what you might
see on a slack exchange work where people can put their question and and you can answer
another people can answer and they can vote up an answer or vote down an answer and I,
like that better for a user forum then BB press but it's up to you if you wanted to
use BB press I'm not going to go into BB press but I will go into this alternative solution
to have a user forum on your website now days a lot of people don't even have it on their
website they put it on Facebook and via a Facebook group and you can have a private
Facebook group that only people in it are the people you've accepted now there's a benefit
of having it on Facebook and for me I rather have a private user form as a Facebook group
because what's really nice is people are going to get the activity of that private Facebook
group in their normal Facebook feed so April that already on Facebook anyway there in a
see what's going on in the group in there to be able to participate that way versus
if you just have it on your website and got a come to your website they got a login and
they've got a check it so this is a way of having it on Facebook to to pull people back
into your website but it's up to you if you want to explore these I'm not gonna go over
them and I'm not gonna recommend them I think it just places too much load on your website
and it's going to just add too much complexity okay now before I end this video I want to
click on this add on's option right here LifterLMS there the way they make money is the core
plug-in is free and then they sell these add-ons and that's how they make money to continue
improving the core plug-in that they give away for free and they have these in various
add-ons here now you don't need any of them but if there's some feature that you want
and they have it available as an add on it you might as well just go ahead and purchase
the I don't is going to be cheaper than doing it yourself so here's that stripe a payment
gateway that you can add here is the PayPal add-on which I included in the resource download
if you wanted to use LifterLMS with WooCommerce and have that beer check out you can go ahead
and get this right here if you wanted to integrate LifterLMS with MailChimp you could go with
this right here if you wanted an affiliate system you can use affiliate WP now they don't
make affiliate WW P it but it's the most popular affiliate management platform and it fully
integrates with LifterLMS I should make a video on that because I'm actually in the
process of adding this to my site here is a plug-in to add integration with LifterLMS
an active campaign or Infusionsoft or onto report or drip now I have an alternative to
this but the product hasn't launched just yet and fully integrates with LifterLMS and
this can also integrate with some of these serve says including the marketing automation
platform that I use here is a convert kit integration is another affiliate platform
if you wanted to create complex registration forms for LifterLMS you can do it with gravity
forms and here's an add on for that and then pretty much is all of these add-ons right
here so next we have this reporting tab here in this actually really cool I'm the only
student in here but anyways this is where you could see a list of your students and
you can search for your students by name right here and this actually really nice and you
can see where your students are in your courses with their enrolled in what they've completed
all of this great stuff you can see it all right here and find those students it's actually
a very powerful and nice that they have that there and then right here when I click on
the sales tab we can see some information on your sales door if it says error just click
on retry and this is good so you can get a overview of how your cells are doing and you
can sort it by year or month this month last month last seven days or even put in a date
range and then lastly we have this enrollments tab here for the reporting where you can get
a kind of a dashboard look at your enrollments over time you can also toggle these filters
are right here you can filter it by course or by membership so you can really dig down
and see some interesting information and did I miss that filters as well for sales yes
there is a filter right here for sales okay so here is a really cool feature that I think
this was mom might've been added not that long ago and this is an important export feature
for courses you can build an entire course and then you can export it and then you can
import it if you wanted to say duplicated instead of starting from scratch or duplicating
a course you can make a course and move it to a different website it's actually very
powerful to be able to import and export your courses next we have this system report right
here now if you have to get support for LifterLMS a lot of times they were going to want to
see this system report right here it was the same thing with Elementor they have the system
report and this will give them all the information that they needed to know the environment that
your website is in and to know how you have your website configured so it's just a budget
technical geeky information about your site in your hosting environment what you have
installed on your site so they can go ahead and better assist you in troubleshooting your
website anyways this was these settings and we have gone through so much we've already
created the front end of the website we've already gotten through our settings we have
our checkout process we have everything done we've already gotten through so much I'm really
really proud of you so far

PHOTOGRAPHY FROM THE SHETLAND ISLANDS AND MORE ZINES! - Duration: 8:31.
okay this is one stack of four that are
in my living room I think it is time
because I haven't done one in weeks
let's do a little mail today
[Music]
so first up
is this book from Ed Ruttledge called the
people of Chavita and I'll share a
little at his letter with you Ed writes
Dear Ted not sure I would call the
enclosed a zine but sending it anyway I
was invited by the Civita Institute to
spend a month as artist-in-residence at
the Institute's property in Civita
di Banoregio, Italy in the fall of
2015 when accepted for this project it
was open-ended so I met with the
Institute's president and asked what are
you interested in having photographed
the people of Civita he replied - I almost
choked I have done landscape photography
my signature characteristic being no
people in my work so this was a
challenge for me yet of the photo
product that was eventually to be the
result of my month at Civita I liked the
people series the best the book was
intended to be a coffee table book for a
fundraiser images with titles only I
have added some comment via post-it
notes - Ed this is outstanding
Ed this is an excellent project and an
excellent book I will link up to further
information in the description if you
are interested in seeing more thank you
Ed this is awesome next up is a zine
and a few prints from Lee Johnson who lives
in Switzerland and I want to share a little
of his note with you this is really cool
hello Ted longtime viewer of your
YouTube channel here I have included a
little project shot about four years ago
ironically it was shot over a period of
three weeks but it was my first attempt
at taking a body of work and trying to
edit it down to something more
substantial this is a nice little zine
called The Green The Blue The Grey - it is a
photographic journey through the Pacific
Northwest which is one of my favorite
places in the United States everything
is so gorgeous out that way and you can
see that evidence in this book it's a
really nice little collection just on a
time and a place taking over a period of
about three weeks
so Lee thank you very much this is
outstanding next up this is really
awesome and it was a really nice
surprise to get this is a book that was
photographed by Tom Barr and words by
Kate Davies I believe is how you say
her name - Tom you might recognize from
the comments section he is a viewer of
the show and an excellent photographer
this book is really cool and I want to
share with you a little of his letter he
lives in Scotland and he writes dear Ted
I am a recent subscriber to your excellent
Art of Photography channel I'm sending
you a copy of my recently completed
photo documentary project, Shetland Oo
Textiles, Wool, Work - it's an exploration
of the interactions between landscape
and the people in the textile industry
of remote Shetland Islands there are two
things that especially interest me as a
photographer people at work (or play) or
where that work (or play) takes place
Shetland is a fascinating place to think
about the relationship between human
labor and place and my starting point
with the project with a desire to show
how a particular landscape has been
shaped by the work of wool and to
illustrate the many different ways in
which wool shapes humans lives in
turn I wanted to show people at work and
in places where that work occurs and
in Shetland those spaces are varied
from the cozy interiors of sheds and
living rooms to the drama of windblown
hills and cliffs my guiding principle
was that the images should suggest a real
dignity and the beauty of the work
that's done with wool and the textiles
in Shetland and hopefully capture some
of those same qualities in working with
Shetlanders themselves - this is really
beautifully written Tom this is an
excellent book I am blown away and I
don't know if i'm pronouncing it right
because I know it is a local term but I
believe that Oo is a basically a
substitute for the word wool or slang so
i guess this is Shetland Oo so if I'm
looking like a fool right now I
apologize but this book is outstanding
and guys a couple videos ago I talked
about the importance of being inspired
by things outside of photography and I
think Tom has really brought that
together with the work that he's done
with this collaborative book and it's it
is documentation of an industry
particularly in the Shetland Islands of
wool but I think it brings a lot of that
inspiration and what you see in this
book are younger people who are bringing
the
craft element back to something that is
an older industry and this is really
well done I really can't praise this
enough Tom thank you this is awesome if
you guys want to buy a copy this book it
is available and I will link that up in
the show description so check it out
ok so I want to share this with you guys
and I have to preface this by saying
that when I went to the p.o box they
handed me this box and it said it was
from Michael Koss now when I was a kid
I had this pair of KOSS headphones that
I inherited from my dad - he'd passed them
along to me and they were falling apart
but they sounded so good and I would sit
there and listen to my dad's records at
the record player when I was little I
mean we're talking like 7 or 8 and I had
these huge KOSS headphones I called him
my cans and of course now that's the
slang for headphones and so jokingly in
my mind I'm sitting there thinking that
well KOSS are probably reaching out to the
show I get this home I open it up lo and
behold this is a letter from Michael
Koss and he says dear Ted we are big
fans thanks for everything you do from
your Q&A to the artist series from you
tutorials and processing to your camera
reviews always loads of fun very
much enjoyed the fact that you can wield
an axe as an additional sauce for the
goose I play guitar too and I thought it
was very cool that he knew that
enjoy the enclosed with our thanks my son
Charlie manages our content while
freelancing out of Brooklyn I am in
based in Milwaukee hope to meet one day
thanks a million Michael J Koss
chairman and CEO KOSS corporation
Milwaukee this is awesome Michael this
is really nice thank you for your lovely
note and thank you for the headphones I
need a pair and these are really awesome
by the way my cat judy likes them too I
want to thank everybody who I featured
today that has sent something in this is
really special and it's one of the
things that I enjoy the most if you
have sent something to me and I haven't
gotten to it yet I promise I will I have
like there's a stack of mail here
there's one over here I have this it's
piling up because I haven't done a mail
video in a while and so I promise to get
to that in the next week or so now
having said that I want to add something
to this the Art of Photography the
videos that I make here for those of you
who have watched a lot of my videos I'm
sure you understand this
but the Art of Photography I don't
feature a lot of my own work I've featured
it occasionally but it's not about me - the
Art of Photography is a celebration of
photography and it's about a

For Whom Did Christ Die? (Selected Scriptures) - Duration: 53:09.
We come tonight to a wonderful theme in the Scripture, again the atonement of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
And for those of you, most of you, who are with us in our study of the gospel of Luke,
we have been looking closely at the record of Luke, the historical record, as well as
comparing the account of Matthew and Mark and John on the death of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We have looked at the details of His dying.
Tonight we want to talk a little about the theology of His death and ask the question
and answer it from Scripture, "For whom did Christ die?"
This is a very, very important question.
Now I know you people very well and you are noble Bereans.
You search the Scriptures to see if these things that I say are so.
And I also know that if I don't cover every verse that weighs on this subject, you will
line up afterwards to ask me about that verse.
So in dealing with a subject like this, if I can borrow a French phrase, this needs to
be somewhat of a tour de force(?)
, I need to cover the ground extensively so I can put your mind at rest because you are
so incurably biblical.
That, in case you didn't know, is a great commendation.
I expect that, I rejoice in that.
To begin with, what I want to say is what I am going to teach you tonight about this
application of the atonement, answering the question, "For whom did Christ die?" is the
view that has reigned supreme in the true church since the New Testament.
It, along with the other essential doctrines of Reformed Theology, or Augustinian, or Lutheran
or Calvinistic theology, has been affirmed by the church since its inception.
What I am going to show you tonight is essentially what the early church believed, of course,
because you'll see it coming out of the New Testament.
It is what was affirmed in the fifth century as being a true representation of New Testament
teaching under Augustine against Palagius.
It was again affirmed during the time of the Reformation by Luther in his conflict with
Erasmus and further affirmed by Calvin in his conflict with Arminius.
It has come down to us in our heritage which is Baptistic through the London Confession
of 1689 and the Philadelphia Confession of 1743, being the substantial foundations for
Baptists in America.
And that is our tradition, our ecclesiology is baptistic rather than sacramental and Reformed.
That's why we baptize adults who believe and not infants.
And so, what I'm going to say to you is not anything new, it is something that the church
has affirmed.
In fact, the view that opposes what I will show you tonight has been labeled as heresy.
It was so labeled at three councils early on in history, it was reiterated again during
the time of the Reformation that the view contrary to this view is in fact unbiblical.
Now the question might at first seem an easy one, For whom did Christ die?
Most people, I'm confident, in churches would quickly answer, "Well He died for everyone."
Most people in the church believed that on the cross Jesus paid the debt for the sins
of everyone because He loves everyone unconditionally and wants everyone to be saved.
That is not what the church has historically believed, but that is what the present version
of the superficial church believes.
Sinners, all of them, have had all their sins atoned for potentially.
And that's the key word.
If they will acknowledge Christ and accept the gift.
So we have then only to convince sinners to receive the salvation which has already been
fully purchased for them at the cross.
Since Christ died for everyone, everyone can believe and should believe and must believe
if they'll only will to believe.
And in a contemporary concept, we work on the sinner's will believing that the sinner
has both the responsibility and the ability to activate a saving faith on his own and
believe.
If nowhere else, this is certainly indicated in the most popular of Christian books, The
Purpose-Driven Life and The Purpose-Driven Church where Rick Warren says I can lead anyone
to Christ if I can find the key to that person's heart.
It's just a matter of moving their will.
That is the popular idea and that means that hell is full of people whose salvation was
purchased by the death and resurrection of Christ.
It means then that everybody in hell and everybody in heaven had the same thing done for them
on the cross.
The Lake of Fire will be filled with eternally damned people whose sins were actually atoned
for on the cross, so the people in hell had the same atonement as the people in heaven.
The difference was the people in heaven activated their will to accept that atonement.
The people in hell did not.
Now if that sounds strange to you, it is...it is, that Jesus died for, paid for in full
the sins of the damned, paid the penalty of divine justice for them just as He did for
the redeemed is a very strange notion.
And the sinner then determines whether that universally potential death is applied to
him or not.
This view would say Christ died to make salvation possible, not actual.
He died to make it possible, the sinner then makes the choice.
He didn't really purchase salvation for anyone, He actually died on the cross and in some
way removed a barrier to make salvation a potential.
You will not find such language anywhere in the New Testament or the Old.
The message that this would send to sinners goes like this...God loves you so much that
Christ died for you, won't you let Him save you?
The final decision is up to you.
In fact, God loves you so much that He gave His Son and hopefully when you see the sacrifice
that Christ made, you will be moved emotionally to love Him back by accepting Him.
Now the problem with this is glaring.
Here's the problem.
According to Scripture, sinners are dead...dead in trespasses and sin, separated from the
life of God.
They are blind.
They are perishing.
They're in a state of perishing eternally.
They are double blind because the god of this world has blinded their minds.
In their natural state, they cannot understand the things of God, they are foolishness to
them.
Or to borrow the language of Romans 3, there is none who seeks after God, there is no fear
of God before their eyes.
This then affirms another doctrine that the church has always established as true and
that is the sinner's total inability.
Luther's great classic, The Bondage of the Will is still preeminent reading for anyone
who wants to understand how bound the fallen human will is and how impossible it is for
the dead double-blind sinner cut off from the life of God with no desire for God and
no ability to seek after God and no fear of God before his eyes to all of a sudden pull
himself up by his own bootstraps and take hold of a potential salvation that is hanging
out there for him.
The Bible is clear that all are dead in trespasses and sins.
That the heart of man is deceitful above all things, desperately wicked.
That all its imaginations are only evil continually.
The mind is dark, the soul is dark, the heart is full of wicked corruption.
The sinner on his own can't do anything.
In John chapter 1 and verse 12, "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to
become the children of God, even to those who believe on His name who were born not
of blood."
It didn't come from a human source.
"Nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
If you were given the authority to become a child of God, if you were born into the
family of God, it wasn't because you activated human will.
"For by grace you are saved, through faith, that not of yourselves."
First Corinthians chapter 1 and verse 30, "By His doing you are in Christ Jesus."
The doctrine of man's inability necessitates the doctrine of God's divine evasion.
Salvation is from God, He must give light, He must give life, He must give sight, He
must give understanding, He must give repentance, He must give faith, He must totally transform
the sinner.
And that's what God does.
And He does it to those whom He has chosen.
Scripture is very clear on that as well.
Now since the sinner cannot will to believe on his own, since he can only believe if God
enables him to believe, and since God enables to believe those whom He has chosen, it should
be clear that the provision of sacrifice that Christ provided on the cross would be on behalf
of those who would believe because they were given life because they were chosen.
For those who would believe who are the chosen and the called of God, to whom God regenerates,
gives life, the atonement was designed to apply.
Someone will say, "Wait a minute.
You believe in a limited atonement."
Yes I do believe in a limited atonement and so do you.
Let me help you with that.
We know the atonement is limited because not everybody believes.
People die without believing in Christ.
They die rejecting the gospel.
They die without ever hearing about Christ and the only way to be saved is through faith
in Christ.
Sinners perish every minute and have through all of history.
We all know the atonement is limited.
Scripture is explicit about hell.
Jesus said many are going to go there.
So when somebody accuses you of saying, "You believe in limited atonement," of course you
do.
The atonement does not apply to everyone.
And that leads to a second question...how is it limited?
Well simply because not all are saved...not all believe.
The only remaining question is...who limits it?
Who limits it?
The popular idea is that sinners limit the atonement because it's a universally available
atonement, limited only by sinners.
But there's a sense in which God limits it because God limits it to those who believe
and nobody can believe unless He gives them faith.
So what the New Testament really teaches is that God has limited the atonement by His
sovereign election and sovereign grace.
The atonement must not be understood as some general potential atonement or Jesus should
have said instead of "it is finished," "it is begun."
Or I hope this works out for a lot of folks.
Those who say the atonement is unlimited don't mean that.
They can't mean that.
They know the atonement is limited.
They know that God limited it to those who believed.
And sinners further limit it by not believing.
But when you say you believe in an unlimited atonement, you even limit it in another way.
This is a huge limitation.
You say that the actual work of Christ on the cross in itself was not enough to actually
save people.
That is a very serious limitation to put on it.
In other words, the atonement is limited in its power, in its nature,, in its effectiveness,
in its actual achievement, actual accomplishment.
It is less than a true and actual atonement.
It is only a potential one.
Christ, in fact, did not make a full and complete payment to God for the sins of anyone in particular,
only potentially for everyone in general.
You have to say that because if you say Christ died on the cross for the whole world, and
most of the whole world goes to hell, then whatever that atonement was, it was very limited
in its power and limited in its effectiveness.
So, those who limit the atonement most are those who believe in an unlimited atonement
because they have now redefined the atonement to make it some kind of limited potential
thing rather than a real atonement and hell is, in fact, full of people whose sins were
sort of paid for.
It's not at all biblical to think along these lines.
We must agree that the atonement is limited.
Yes, it is limited to those who believe.
Those who believe are limited by the sovereign electing purpose of God.
In that sense, the atonement is limited.
It is limited to those who believe and that limitation is established by God and not by
man since man can't believe on his own.
But the atonement is unlimited in the sense of its actual power and its actual effectiveness.
Jesus did actually accomplish on the cross the atonement of those who are His own.
The death of Christ is not a potential, general atonement, it is an actual particular specific
atonement.
Now that's the way we have to think about the atonement.
Now I want to look, for a few moments, at what the Bible says about this and try to
help you sort through some of the Scriptures.
Of all those doctrines that are familiar to us in Reformed theology that have to do with
the sovereignty of God, man's fallenness and his inability and unwillingness and grace
and sovereignty and election and perseverance and all those things, this particular doctrine
needs the most careful scrutiny when you look at the Scriptures because so many times Christ
has introduced this, the Savior of the world.
And so many times He is referred to as the one who saves all.
We have to take a look at what that means.
What does world mean?
What does all mean?
What does many mean?
And this could be a very long and detailed study, so let me sort of give you a good summary
of it, I hope.
Now whenever you see the word "world" in the New Testament, you certainly know you could
take it a number of ways...world could be simply the system, love not the world.
That doesn't mean people.
That simply means the system.
It could mean the eco, that would be the moral system, or immoral system, or system of sin.
It could be the eco system, it could be speaking more in a physical level.
It could mean humanity.
We have to determine that in the context of every situation.
But to be sure, when it talks about Him being the Savior of the world and taking away the
sin of the world, we know one thing, it does not mean every person who ever lived, or there
would be no hell, there would be no judgment and there would be no warnings about those.
So world is always qualified.
Let's look at some of those illustrations.
John 1...John 1:29, John the Baptist saw Jesus coming and said, "Behold the Lamb of God who
takes away the sin of the world."
Now that is very strong language.
Takes away the sin of the world, removes it.
Now how do you translate world?
How do you understand world?
Well what does it mean?
Does it mean He literally removed the sin of every person who ever lived?
Of course not because 2 Thessalonians 1:7 and 9 and a lot of other passages say that
when Jesus comes He is going to pour out retribution on most of the world, all of the world of
unbelievers, having rescued His own.
You have to qualify world, yes the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.
But if you go back to chapter 1 to verse 11 it says, "He came to His own and those that
were His own didn't receive Him."
Well He didn't take their sins away.
"But as many as received Him, He gave them the right to become the children of God."
So in what sense is He the Savior of the world?
In the sense that there is no other Savior in the world.
There is only one Savior.
World taken in the sense of humanity here, He is humanity's only Savior.
In John 3:16 and 17 , "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world but that the world should
be saved through Him."
Again, are we universalists?
Does the New Testament teach universalism?
These are the kind of verses that universalists use, where everyone is going to be in the
end saved, there's no hell, there's no judgment, there's no damnation, we're all going to end
up in heaven.
We know better than that because there's explicit teaching in the Bible to the contrary.
So when it tells us here very clearly that the world should be saved through Him, it
must mean something other than every human being who has ever lived.
It simply means humanity, mankind, God has a love for humanity.
In John 4:42, these are very similar, this is Jesus talking with the woman at the well.
She says, "It's no longer because of what You said that we believe, for we have heard
for ourselves and know that this one is indeed the Savior of the world."
Again, it is not to say that Jesus has saved the world, it is to say again that He is the
one Savior for humanity.
There is no other Savior.
In John chapter 6 and verse 33, "The bread of God," says Jesus, "is that which comes
down out of heaven and gives life to the world."
Again does that mean that the whole world has spiritual life, that the whole world partakes
of the life of God that comes through Jesus Christ who is the true bread of life?
Of course not.
Again it is qualified to indicate this is the only source of life, the only source of
salvation the world will ever know.
Verse 51, same chapter, "I am the living bread that came down out of heaven.
If anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever and the bread also which I shall give
for the life of the world is My flesh."
He is again the only sacrifice the world will ever know, but only those who take of that
sacrifice, eat that bread, will experience life.
In John chapter 12 verses...I think it's about verse 47, 48, "If anyone hears My sayings,
doesn't keep them, I don't judge him for I didn't come to judge the world but to save
the world."
Again in the end most of the people in the world are going to be judged.
Few find the narrow way.
But again the point is He comes to be the only Savior the world will ever know.
Verse 48, "He who rejects Me and doesn't receive My sayings has one who judges him."
He just said, "I didn't come to judge the world, I came to save the world."
Turns right around and says, "But if you reject Me, you're going to be judged."
Chapter 14 of John, verse 22, Judas, not Iscariot, one of the Apostles, said, "Lord, what then
has happened that You're going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?"
Well what did that mean?
It didn't mean everybody who has ever lived in the history of the world, it simply meant
to the public, to the general public.
You've told us these things, the Apostles, You haven't told the general public.
So, the term world is always to be qualified and you can't just say because He's the Savior
of the world that that means that He has provided an actual atonement for the whole world or
you're going to have to end up as a universalist with everybody in heaven.
So, if you don't want to end up as a universalist, but you want to affirm that Jesus loves the
whole world, died for the whole world, then you limit the power and the effectiveness
of the atonement, make it only a potential thing that is activated by the will of the
sinner which is impossible because the sinner can't activate his own will because he's dead.
The testimony of Scripture with regard to world is consistent.
For example, even a statement like "all men perceive that John the Baptist was a prophet."
What do you mean "all men," every person living in Israel?
Every person in the world?
"All" has to be qualified.
Not everyone in Israel perceived that John was a prophet.
Not everyone in the world perceived.
The all is qualified.
World is qualified by the context.
In the twelfth chapter of John, verse 19, "The Pharisees said to one another, 'You see
you're not doing any good.
Look, the world has gone after Him.'"
Well what did they mean by that?
They meant the general public.
And so, this is an important distinction to make.
Now frequently the world also is intended as a term to embrace Gentiles, okay?
The Jews had this very isolationist mentality that they were the only people who were going
to cash in on the promises of the Old Testament, they were the Covenant people of God, they
would receive all the blessing.
And the Gentiles would not.
And so frequently they are reminded that He is the Savior of the world, meaning not just
Jews, but Gentiles.
So you're talking about general humanity, mankind, but in particular Jesus is saying
when He says these things so many times about the world, that this includes Gentiles.
That is absolutely unmistakable.
I thought of another verse.
Luke 9:25, "What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world."
Well world doesn't mean if he absolutely owned the entire planet.
So that word is always to be qualified, understood in a qualified way.
In the fifteenth chapter of Acts and verse 6, this shocking reality, "The Apostles, elders,
came together to look into the matter after there had been much debate.
Peter stood up and said to them, 'Brethren, you know that in the early days God made a
choice among you that by my mouth a Gentile should hear the Word of the gospel and believe.'"
This is a jolt to the isolationists in Israel.
God bore witness to them, giving them the Holy Spirit as He did to us, made no distinction
between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.
"We believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus in the same way as
they also are."
Again, there's only one Savior for the world.
There's only one gospel for the world.
That God loves the world, people in general, Jew and Gentile.
In 1 John there's a verse that we want to look at, 1 John 2, "My little children, I'm
writing these things to you that you may not sin.
If anyone sins we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
He Himself is the propitiation, the hilasterion , the covering, the mercy seat for our sins,
not for ours only but also for those of the whole world."
What do you mean the whole world?
Now look at the language.
He is the propitiation, that is not a potential, that is an actual satisfaction.
The word means a covering.
He is a real covering, not a partial covering.
He is the mercy seat.
He propitiates God.
He satisfies God, an actual satisfaction, an actual propitiation, not for our sins only...what
are you talking about?...Jews, but for the whole world, every tongue, tribe, nation,
people, Gentiles.
Compare that with Revelation 5:9 where they're all gathered there.
Propitiation...very strong, actual satisfying of God's just wrath, Jesus placated God's
anger and judgment for our sins, turned away God's wrath forever for any Jew and any Gentile
who believes.
Second Corinthians 5 verse 19, real familiar passage, "God was in Christ reconciling the
world to Himself not counting their trespasses against them."
That can't possibly mean the planet, that can't mean all of humanity.
Whatever world is, it is only for those who have had their sins forgiven, who have had
their guilt erased, who have been reconciled to God and are forever free from condemnation...those
who believe.
Why does he say world?
Because it's important that we know there are no distinctions.
In Christ there's neither Jew nor Gentile, male or female, bond or free.
Christ didn't ever say in the New Testament through the revelation of the Holy Spirit
to the writers of the New Testament that He paid the penalty in full for everyone's sins,
that He actually satisfied God's wrath for every person who ever believed, but they're
still going to go to hell.
He, rather, provided a full hilasmos , a full atonement, a full propitiation for those who
would believe, whether Jew or Gentile, any nation, any people.
Similarly there are New Testament usages of the word "all."
Just a couple of those because again people will go back to that and ask the question,
Romans 5, for example, verse 18, "So then as through one transgression...talking about
Adam's sin...there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness
there resulted justification of life to all men."
Well those two alls are different.
In Adam, all died.
And that's all.
In Christ, all being made alive is a qualified all because it can't mean every human being.
The all, first of all, means every human being.
Secondly, it means only those who have been justified and given life.
"For as through the one man's disobedience, the many were made sinners," and Paul there
switches from all to many just to loosen up those words a little bit, "and through the
obedience of one, the many will be made righteous."
All and many are interchangeable and they illustrate simply the impact that one person's
act has a massive effect on people.
Adam's did and Christ's did as well.
But the all who sinned is a much greater number than the all who are justified and given life.
Well you say, "What about 1 Timothy 2:4 through 6?"
"God our Savior who desires all men to be saved."
God desires all men to be saved.
Well if God desires all men to be saved, then why aren't all men saved?
You say, "Because God doesn't get what He wants."
Really?
He doesn't get what He wants.
He's up there wringing His hands because sinners won't activate this potential atonement?
The all men that God desires to be saved are the all men that God determined to save.
He determined to save whom He desired to save.
Christ was a ransom for all who would believe and all who would believe would believe because
God would give them life.
The use of the word "many" in the New Testament is helpful, just maybe one passage on that
one.
Matthew 20:28, "The Son of Man didn't come to be served but to serve and give His life
a ransom for many."
One place it says all, one place it says many.
The fact that those words are used interchangeably means there's some freedom in those terms.
They're simply intending to show not absolutely all, but many.
Many then is a word that is used synonymously with all which then defines all as meaning
many.
As in Adam, it's fair to say many died.
They did, many.
As in Christ, many are made alive, many from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.
I think you get the picture.
These words are qualified by what we clearly understand the New Testament teaches.
Now that takes us to another section of Scripture that I'll just kind of give you quickly, that
is definite in its reference to the atonement.
Listen to Matthew 1:21.
"And she will bear a son and you shall call his name Jesus," this is very important, "for
it is He who will save...what are the next two words?...His people from their sins."
It is He who will save His people from their sins.
Turn to John chapter 10...John chapter 10, verse 11.
"I am the Good Shepherd, the Good Shepherd lays down his life for...what?...the sheep."
Again, definite atonement, definite sacrifice.
Verse 14, "I am the Good Shepherd, I know My own and My own know Me, even as the Father
knows Me and I know the Father, and I lay down My life for the sheep.
I have other sheep, Gentiles, not of this fold.
I must bring them also and they shall hear My voice and they shall become one flock,
Jew and Gentile, with one shepherd.
For this reason the Father loves Me because I lay down My life that I may take it again."
Verse 24, "The Jews gathered around Him and were saying to Him, 'How long will You keep
us in suspense?
If You're the Christ, tell us plainly.'
To which Jesus responded, 'I told you and you don't believe the works that I do in My
Father's name, these bear witness of Me but you do not believe because you're not of My
sheep.'"
Pretty clear, isn't it?
"I lay down My life for the sheep.
My sheep hear Me.
My sheep follow Me.
You don't because you're not among My sheep."
Verse 27, "My sheep hear My voice.
I know them, they follow Me and I give eternal life to them and they shall never perish and
no one shall snatch them out of My hand.
My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all and no one is able to snatch them
out of the Father's hand.
I and the Father are one."
And that, of course, takes us to the doctrine of the perseverance of the saints, or the
security of those who are saved.
In the eleventh chapter of John, in verse 50, Caiaphas, high priest, speaking, "You
know nothing at all, nor do you take into account that it is expedient for you that
one man should die for the people and that the whole nation should not perish."
Now He didn't say this on His own initiative, but being high priest that year he prophesied
that Jesus was going to die for the nation, so writes John.
And not for the nation only, but that He might also gather together into one the children
of God who are scattered abroad, meaning not just Jews but Gentiles.
Consistent with how the word "world" is intended to be understood, He has died for the people,
the nation Israel, those within that nation who are His sheep as well as those He will
gather who are scattered abroad in other nations.
The seventeenth chapter of John and there are lots of Scriptures that have this specificity,
17:6, "I manifested Thy name to the men whom Thou gavest Me out of the world.
Thine they were and Thou gavest them to Me and they have kept Thy word."
They who followed Christ did so because God chose them and gave them to Christ.
"Now they have come to know that everything Thou hast given Me is from Thee, for the words
which Thou gavest Me I have given to them and they received them.
Truly understood that I came forth from Thee, they believe that Thou didst send Me.
I ask on their behalf...listen to this...I do not ask on behalf of the world but of those
whom Thou hast given Me, they are Thine."
Very specific again, intercessory prayer on behalf of the elect, chosen by God to be given
to Christ and not intercession on behalf of the rest of mankind.
Very specific.
Verse 12, "While I was with them I was keeping them in Thy name which Thou hast given Me.
I guarded them, not one of them perished."
Special care protection for those chosen and given to Christ.
Verse 24, "I desire that they also whom Thou hast given Me be with Me where I am in order
that they may behold My glory."
He intercedes on behalf of those whom the Father has chosen and given to Him saying,
"I long for them to be in heaven and behold My glory."
Christ knows His sheep.
Gives His life for His sheep.
Gathers His sheep, secures His sheep and brings His sheep ultimately to eternal glory.
Is Jesus the justifier of everyone?
Listen to Romans 3:23, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Being justified is a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus, whom
God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith."
And there it is again.
He...His death is an actual propitiation, an actual satisfaction.
This is to demonstrate His righteousness through the forbearance of God.
He passed over the sins previously committed for the demonstration, I say, of His righteousness
at the present time.
And here it tells you who He propitiated for, who He died for, "That He might be just and
the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus."
He provided a sacrifice only for those who would put their faith in Christ.
Since man cannot do that on his own, they are the ones whom God gives life.
There are many other texts that we could look at.
Perhaps Titus 2, and I'll give you just a couple more.
"Looking...verse 13, Titus 2...for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great
God and Savior Christ Jesus who gave Himself for us...for us that He might redeem us from
every lawless deed and purify for Himself a people for His own possession."
A people of His own possession.
Down in verse 4 of chapter 3, "When the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind
appeared, He saved us.
He poured out on us...verse 6...richly the Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ our Savior."
First Peter 2:24, "He bore our sins."
It is not a matter of potential atonement, it is an actual atonement on behalf of us.
"Christ died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust in order that He might bring
us to God."
The called, the chosen are the ones for whom Christ died.
One writer says this, "An opposing view tells us that Jesus died for multitudes that will
never be saved, including millions who never so much as heard of Him.
It tells us in the case of those who are lost, the death of Jesus represented in Scripture
is an act whereby He took upon Himself the punishment that should have been ours was
ineffective.
Christ suffered once for their sins but they will now have to suffer for the same sins
forever in hell."
This idea of the atonement has the initial appearance of being very generous, but the
more closely we look at it, the less we are impressed.
Does it guarantee the salvation of anybody?
No.
Does it guarantee that those for whom Christ died will have an opportunity to hear of Him
and respond to Him?
No.
Does it in any way remove or even lessen the sufferings of the lost?
No.
In reality this view of the atonement doesn't atone, merely clears the way for God to accept
those who are able to life themselves by their own strength.
So in summary, as we think about this, the death of Christ was a real true actual satisfaction
of divine justice so that the sinner for whom Christ died is really, not potentially, provided
an atonement into which that sinner will enter by the sovereign power of God at the moment
when God regenerates that sinner and gives him faith.
Not apart from the sinner's will, but in accord with the sinner's will, activated by the power
of God.
The death of Christ then was definite, particular, specific and actual on behalf of God's chosen
people.
It was limited in its extent by the sovereign purpose of God.
It was not limited in effect.
It was the work of God and Christ to actually accomplish redemption, not just make it possible.
Christ procured salvation for all that God would call and save.
Sinners do not limit the atonement as to its extent, God does.
And God put no limit on it as to its effect.
It fully saves all who will believe.
Jesus actually took the penalty and paid in full for the sins of those who believe.
This is why there is no condemnation.
This is why we persevere in faith.
This is why you can't lose that salvation because it was paid for in full.
All these great doctrines of grace tie together perfectly and biblically.
Father, we have had a wonderful evening tonight thinking about some of these things and there's
much more to be perused in the Word.
But, Lord, I just pray that perhaps there's a freshness to the way we look at the cross,
seeing it not as a point of frustration where You gave Your Son to pay the penalty in some
strange way for the whole human race, and most of them would never receive the benefit
of that, but rather to look at the cross as something very specific, very particular,
actual, a real atonement paid for in full for all who would believe because You would
grant them life out of their deadness, sight out of their blindness, understanding out
of their ignorance, faith out of their unbelief so that in the end it's by Your doing that
we are in Christ Jesus and You receive all the glory.
It is a kind of sacrilege to diminish the power and the efficiency of the atoning work
of Christ to make it something less than it really was.
And when it came to an end, Jesus said, "It is finished."
Paid in full on behalf of all His sheep.
Father, we would again say thank You, there are no words to describe the privilege and
joy that we experience having been brought to faith in Christ.
And I pray tonight for some who are sitting here upon whose heart the spirit of God is
moving in a powerful way and there is rising in that heart a longing to embrace Christ
as Lord and Savior, a desire to be saved from sin, like those who gave their beautiful testimonies
in the water tonight.
O Lord, we pray that You will awaken the dead, give sight to the blind, understanding to
the ignorant, faith to those who don't believe.
Work that mighty miracle and may sinners even tonight find something rising up in them that
attracts them to Jesus Christ and causes them to want to run to Him and repent of their
sin and embrace the forgiveness that He alone can give.
And where that heart feels that divine compulsion, we know it's Your work for man on his own
cannot, will not come.
Father, work Your work in the heart of that sinner who has not yet come to Christ and
may he or she come running to embrace the sacrifice in full provided on the cross.
We thank You that You died for us, You paid the price for our sins completely and we are
free from any judgment ever.
This is beyond comprehension and we are unworthy but we rejoice and we thank You and we thank
You in Christ's dear name.
Amen.

The BCN3D Sigma R17 Review? - Duration: 15:44.
Dual extrusion has arrived, in a big way, and the fact that you need two filament paths
is being solved creatively in a bunch of different ways: Either you've just got two fully featured
hotends moving around at the same time, which does pose the issue of the inactive one oozing
its filament onto your print.
Then there's the option of lifting one hotend, but unless you do that perfectly, it's only
going to cause more issues than it solves.
Other setups use just one hotend and feed two or more filaments into it, one after another,
but the BCN3D Sigma does things its own way - it just adds a second carriage and moves
the idle hotend out of the way.
Crutch or clutch?
Let's find out.
So this is BCN3D's current version of the Sigma, commonly referred to as the R17.
I've not used the previous version, so I can't really tell you what's changed,
but I can tell you about how well this machine performs in absolute terms.
Now, just to get it out of the way, yes, the most obvious machine to compare this to is
the Ultimaker 3.
And that has been my reference for all the testing I've done on the Sigma, but you
have to realize that they are very different machines at their core and each one has its
focus in a different area.
Let's leave all the direct comparisons to another video and just focus on the Sigma
for now.
So the first thing that's going to stand out is the machine's looks - it's aggressive,
it's mean, its frame is massive aluminum and with the linear motion components glowing
in the purple LED lighting, there's a distinct "modern" aura around the Sigma.
It's a very hefty machine, except for this wobbly plastic cover, and its large footprint
comes with an equally large print volume of roughly 300x210x210mm or 12x8x8 inches, basically
the size of an A4 sheet of paper as a build surface.
There's a lot of seemingly empty space to the left and right of the glass build plate,
because that's where the Sigma has its parking positions and waste buckets for the hotends.
You get a fairly large touchscreen up front, flanked by an SD card slot, and a USB port
on the back, which you can use to connect the Sigma to a computer for tethered printing.
And yes, there's no networking built in, neither through wired Ethernet nor through
WiFi, which is a shame, considering the Sigma sells for almost 2655€ including tax or
27 hundred US dollars plus tax.
But the thing is, the Sigma still runs the Marlin firmware on an 8-bit processor, which
has plenty of horsepower for regular printing, but doesn't exactly just let you plug in
a WiFi dongle.
Though adding OctoPrint with a separate Rapsberry Pi is trivial if you want networked printing.
But the star, or stars of the show here are the dual independent extruders, dubbed IDEX.
This really is the core of why the Sigma exists.
The hotends in here are similar in concept to E3D's, but not quite identical in all
their dimensions.
So this is a dual extruder setup, with two hotends, two bowden extruders, but also two
X-axis-carriages.
That means, that whenever it's using one of the two hotends, it can park the other
one off to the side.
This reduces the moving weight on the X-axis, but most importantly, moves that second, idle
hotend over a waste bucket with a wiper, where it can ooze as much filament as it want, and
just before switching hotends, it primes the idle one into the bucket and wipes it clean
with this flexible lip.
This works great, and dual extrusion prints come out perfectly clean, without any extra
oozy bits of the wrong filament stuck in the print.
And there's no priming tower that could get knocked over or otherwise ruin your print.
Having two independent X-carriages means aligning the two hotends is a bit trickier than if
they were just next to each other, but BCN3D are including a powerful calibration routine
on the Sigma.
It feels a bit like the calibration you'd do on an a 2D inkjet machine to align the
printhead, and at its core, it's doing pretty much the same thing.
The first time you start up the Sigma, it starts by adjusting the printbed, which uses
an assisted manual leveling or, more precisely, tramming approach, with a microswitch on each
carriage and the two adjustment knobs on the front.
The rear mounting point of the bed is fixed, which gives the machine an absolute reference
for height and it means you'll never exceed the adjustment range on each of the thumbscrews,
which is something that some other machines often struggle to work around.
The microswitches measure the glass bed surface and the only thing left for you to do is to
turn the left and right adjustment knob by the amount the machine tells you to.
After that, the absolute nozzle height is calibrated, as usual, with a piece of paper
with very specific instruction on how to hold it, and just to reconfirm everything, the
machine then prints a test pattern and lets you pick which of the test strips looks best
to you.
And I think this last test is something that more machines should do, as it gives you that
visual confirmation that your adjustment is correct.
It does the same for the second hotend, and then a few more tests to align both hotends
in X and Y direction.
And the results of this process are really, really good.
Though the process itself could use some tuning in my opinion, if you do the full run, it
takes quite a while to complete, and the interface isn't always totally logical if you're
not super concentrated.
For example, not just in the calibration menus, but everywhere else, too, pressing "up"
on the Z-axis screens moves the hotend closer to the bed, which would be the negative, down
direction, in the printer's own coordinates and in any host software, but in this case
it refers the bed itself moving up and down.
The menu structure in general could use a bit more work, too, just to get it closer
in line with what we're used to from smartphones these days.
And to make the entire thing more stable, because right now there are still quite a
few bugs in the interface.
But in general, just having that large touchscreen instead of a clickwheel and a tiny display
makes this printer not just easier, but also a lot faster to use.
So the rest of the hardware is mostly as expected - nice linear rails, 2GT belts, but for the
Z-axis, they're sticking to 12mm smooth rods and a trapezoid spindle.
The spindle is fine, but the unsupported rods and the enormously long printbed do tend to
visibly shake about as the rest of the printer moves.
I'm not sure if this explains some of the inconsistencies I'm seeing in the prints,
but it's definitely not the greatest design choice using unsupported rods here.
Print quality overall is ok, it's not super-duper-awesome, but it's very usable and most of the things
I'm noticing can be worked around in software.
For the most part, that would be some slight gaps in top layers and ringing.
Quite a lot of ringing, actually.
It can be dealt with by lowering the acceleration settings, and the underextrusion is just a
slicer setting or firmware update away.
Manually bumping the extrusion multiplier by about 10% fixed the gaps I was seeing with,
basically, all materials.
Now, for the Sigma, slicer profiles are something that isn't baked in anyways.
BCN3D let you generate them through their Progen website for each material and nozzle
size and quality setting.
And this gives you print profiles both for Cura 15.04 or for Simplify 3D.
Now, there is an 8-month-old build of a Cura BCN3D edition available, and I've been using
that for the most part, but I didn't find any differences to Ultimaker's official
Cura build, other than all references to Ultimaker being replaced by references to BCN3D.
And not having any changes isn't a good thing.
If you look at even what for example Lulzbot are providing with material and quality selection
in their custom version of Cura, or Prusa with the Slic3r build, BCN3D just having you
manually load a new ini file for each new print setting or material choice feels utterly
inappropriate.
And on top of that, Cura 15.04 is complete garbage for dual extrusion.
Yes, it does support multiple extruders, but it's lacking so many essential features.
You don't see which parts of your models are going to use which extruder unless you
memorize which color is which, so I took a shot in the dark and ended up with a false-color
R2D2.
Even for single extrusion where you just use one material, there's no easy way to have
your model printed with the second extruder instead, so if you have a different material
or color loaded in the second slot, you can't really print with it unless you're also
using the first one.
And support material generation, particularly if you're going to print with water-soluble
PVA supports isn't great, either.
It uses a lot of the expensive PVA, there's no option to use cheaper PLA for the inner
parts of the support material that don't need to be soluble, like with this battery
holder that I could have easily printed with PVA supports, but it would have used a ton
of PVA, so I decided to split it into two parts instead.
I also ran into a configuration issue where the Cura profile was configured with quite
a large gap between the support material and the actual build material, which is great
if you're using PLA for both the build and the support and don't want it to stick too
well, but in the case of PVA, the part I tried to print ended up detaching from the support
material.
Because BCN3D haven't made Cura 2 work with the Sigma yes, and, in my opinion, Cura 2
overall has turned into the best slicer option out there right now and is pretty awesome
for dual extrusion, because that option is not there yet, your only choices if you want
to make use of the dual extrusion are to either configure the Sigma in Slic3r or Cura 2 yourself,
which is non-trivial, or you can buy into Simplify 3D.
I've asked BCN3D and their answer was basically yeah, just use Simplify 3D, if you're seriously
planning on using Cura 15.04, you are going to be crippling your shiny new 3D printer
from the start.
I try to review commercial hardware as it is shipped, because there are infinite aftermarket
options in how you can tweak the experience you have.
As it stands, the Sigma only ships with Cura 15.04 and not with Simplify 3D.
And I'm not a huge fan of Simplify 3D aynways, both for it being overly complicated and for
the fact that it's closed-source, riddled with DRM, aka digital restrictions management,
just maybe a bit overhyped, and of course, also a $149 purchase on top of your machine
cost.
Sure, in relation to what you're paying for the Sigma, it's not a huge deal, but
just image if all those people buying Simplify 3D would have funded an open-source slicer
instead.
That would be an amazing piece of software!
Instead, we have Simplify 3D.
I tried the custom support material generation that Simplify 3D is often praised for and
the supports just ended up fusing to the part instead of coming loose easily.
And I'm not quite sure why BCN3D are promoting Simplify 3D so much, because it does clash
with their own open-source philosophy.
BCN3D have done an awesome job on the Open-Source side of the Sigma.
Not only are you getting all the CAD files, but also the bill of materials including suppliers,
you're getting manufacturing drawings, the full package.
So if you ever want to modify or fix anything on the Sigma or even build a printer based
on it, you've got everything you could ever want for that.
And I don't think anyone else, other than of course Lulzbot, are doing Open Source this
thoroughly.
And it does feel like BCN3D have put a lot of attention to detail into this machine.
Starting with having Trinamic drivers right next the motors to reduce EMI and stray inductance,
then the very usable spool mounts inside the printer frame, which allow you to take out
each spool without having to touch the other one - yay - and lastly the magnetic quick-release
glass bed, which relies on the included can of 3DLac to get adhesion, and that works great,
but I'm sure you could also just print PLA onto the bare glass instead.
However, things aren't perfect, as those same spool mounts mean that the water-soluble
PVA support material will be constantly exposed to ambient moisture, which could render it
unprintable quite fast.
The ESUN or Matterhackers PVA is a standard type, so it dissolves very easily, even in
cold water without agitation, but it also sucks a lot more moisture out of the air than
some of the custom types.
Also, the heated bed PCB has a huge gap to the glass and takes forever to heat up even
for PLA, and PETG and ABS are just a chore to print, the LCD menus feel undercooked and
the firmware even freezes with non-Sigma gcode files on the SD card.
And the noise level of the entire machine supposedly has been improved compared to the
previous generation, but it's still not exactly a quiet machine.
BCN3D have already addressed some of the software-fixable issues, like what we saw in the live unboxing,
where the idle extruder head would constantly lose its positioning, that turned out to be
a bad sample gcode file, if you freshly slice new designs, the motion system works perfectly.
And I know the rest of the hiccups and especially the slicer situation will also be solved down
the road, but it would have been nice to have all this stuff tested for and taken care of
before releasing and shipping the machine.
Again, I hate comparing the Sigma to the Ultimaker 3, but it was a very similar story there late
last year, where the machine shipped with some issues that should have never made it
out the door.
Tough management and rigid deadlines in both cases?
Sounds like it.
But please, BCN3D, I know you're working on Cura 2 support etc, don't rush them out.
Do it ^right.
I know this might be a stereotypical clash between German and Spanish philosophies, but
I'd much rather have a release a few weeks later if that means you've taken some extra
time for testing and tweaking.
It doesn't change the fact, though, that the dual-extrusion system itself in the Sigma
works flawlessly and is probably the most universal and overall just the best system
for dual-extrusion out there right now.
Having two independent hotends, getting the idle one out of the way and priming it outside
the build area is priceless, it just works really well.
The calibrations wizards also do their job marvellously, but overall it feels like, right
now, the software and firmware are really holding back what the machine is capable of.
And because of that, I don't think I can really come to a final verdict on the BCN3D
Sigma R17 yet, there are still a few too many open questions that I have.
Let's just say, there's going to be more content on the Sigma R17 vs. Ultimaker 3 maybe
in, like two months, when everything should have settled in a bit?
Because the thing is, when you're buying a 3D printer for 27 hundred bucks, you're
probably going to keep it for a while and you're going to see a few software and firmware
iterations throughout its lifetime, even if that part not perfect right now.
I know that is an unsatisfying conclusion, but I don't think the current state of the
Sigma lives up to what BCN3D had envisioned with it.
So I guess, yeah, I'm looking forward to what BCN3D do next with the Sigma, there's
a lot of potential there.
If you agree, hit that like button and I'd love to know where you guy have your priorities
- would you rather have a stripped-down machine with great software or a more complex package
with everything being a bit unfinished?

Injecting Yourself with Killer Bacteria - Duration: 5:01.
Whether they're talking about people or animals, looks can be deceiving.
The most innocent-looking critters can pack a huge punch.
Take this tiny fish.
Pretty cute, right?
Or maybe it'd look like a tasty snack if you were a predator in a reef.
At least, until it reveals a pair of sharp fangs in its lower jaw, which can inject a
potent venom.
That's why it's called a fangblenny.
But there's a twist to the fangblenny's toxic bite.
It seriously messes up predators but, unlike the searing pain from something like a stingray
spine, the venom probably doesn't hurt much at all.
In fact, an international team of biologists reported this week in the journal Current
Biology that one of the chemicals in the venom is more like a painkiller.
So we might even be able to someday use it in medicine!
These were the first scientists to analyze fangblenny venom.
And they found three types of proteins that act as toxins, none of which had ever been
found in fish before.
One was a special type of enzyme similar to those in bee and snake venom, which can do
a lot of damage by ripping apart cell membranes.
Plus, there was a neuropeptide that's also found in cone snails, which could be acting
as a neurotransmitter.
And the third kind of peptide could bind to opioid receptors, and block pain, among other
effects.
Some scorpions use similar proteins.
Basically, the itty-bitty fangblenny evolved a venom that's snake, snail, and scorpion
venom – all rolled into one.
As for how this venom works, tests on rats showed that its main effect is to dramatically
lower blood pressure, probably because of the two peptides.
The scientists think this blood pressure drop could make any predators uncoordinated, or
even start violently shaking… even if it's not painful because of the opioid-like compound.
That's enough to let a fangblenny slip away without a scratch.
It's a good enough strategy that lots of harmless fish have evolved to mimic venomous
fangblennies, from their colors to their swimming styles.
And humans might be able to benefit by copying the fangblenny, too.
Scientists who study venoms are always on the look-out for new molecules that could
be useful in medicine, and the researchers say this unique venom might be worth studying
as a new type of painkiller.
If it sounds weird to look in fish venom for new drugs, some scientists are considering
an even stranger prospect: using bacteria as antibiotics.
Antibiotics, of course, are supposed to kill bacteria.
So the idea of injecting more bacteria into your bacteria-ridden body seems… kind of
bananas.
But this bacterium – called Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, or BV for short – could help.
In a paper published this week in Biophysical Journal, scientists learned more about how
these assassins hunt.
These bacteria might offer a new way to treat infections that are resistant to multiple
drugs, or bust apart biofilms, the slimey collections of microbes that coat surfaces,
like on medical equipment.
BV kills other bacteria kind of like a virus does.
It squeezes inside a bacterial cell, replicates, and then all those clone babies burst out,
killing the host.
Because it works differently from antibiotics, which usually target specific bits around
or inside bacterial cells, BV can kill bacteria even after many drugs have failed.
Bacteria don't seem to evolve ways to defend themselves against this kind of attack.
And your cells are safe, because BV can only grow inside gram-negative bacteria, like E.
coli or Salmonella, which have a specific kind of cell wall surrounding them.
But while we know some things about BV's life cycle, and even have its genome sequenced,
how BV finds its prey has been a mystery.
Is BV an active hunter, tracking its victims by sensing chemical signals?
Or is it just bumping into them by chance?
Knowing which tactic the bacteria use could be really helpful in figuring out how to use
them as a treatment, whether in hospitals or human bodies.
Well, in the study from this week, scientists at Indiana University found that BV movement
is random, but it has a trick for upping its chances of running into its victims.
The researchers used microscopes to watch BV, along with some E. coli prey, swimming
in some liquid.
That swimming is the key.
The bacterium has a flagellum that propels it through water super quickly.
It can cover a distance 100 times its body length in one second!
All that tail-whipping makes a lot of swirling waves, which makes BV swim in circles and
zero in on surfaces, or other obstacles – in this case, microbeads the researchers added.
And those surfaces were also the regions with the most E. coli.
E. coli is bigger and slower, but also gets trapped in the same places because of the
way it swims.
So, even though BV doesn't use any chemical or electrical signals to know what it's
doing, it still ends up where other bacteria are likely to be.
It's possible scientists could engineer the bacterium to be even more sensitive and
zero in on surfaces faster, which could make it even an more efficient antibiotic.

HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT PIZZA - Egg and Bacon Aussie Pizza 🇦🇺 - Duration: 3:40.
Hi and a huge welcome to Steve's kitchen.
We are still here in Italy and we've
been doing a series on bread making so
I've been making a lot of pizza bases
and whilst I've got my pre-made pizza
bases in the freezer, I'm actually going
to share with you a classic Aussie recipe.
The Aussie Pizza, a little bit different
and really tasty. Now taken one of
those bases out the freezer, it's still a
little bit chilled, one of the biggest
differences is we don't use a tomato
base on the Aussie Pizza, we're going
with a barbecue sauce. So I'm going to
put a liberal amount of barbecue sauce
on the pizza base, take my ladle and
we're just going to spread this out
about an inch away from the outside edge.
I've got some diced onions here, just
going to sprinkle those over the top.
I've also got a little bit of garlic
salt which I'm just going to, not too
much, just pop that over the sauce. Bacon
is one of the key ingredients in an
Aussie Pizza, I've got it finely diced
here, I'm going to sprinkle half of it
underneath the cheese. Now I should just
say bacon goes really well but I also
quite often use cubed ham underneath
the cheese and next we're going to take
a nice mozzarella. Now again in Australia
we would probably go with a mozzarella
and a tasty cheese mix, I'm going for
pure mozzarella here. Not enough there,
I'm going to grate some more. Now this is
a beautiful soft buffalo mozzarella but
I'm still going to grate it because this
is an Aussie Pizza after all. Don't under
do the cheese you really want a decent
amount of cheese on this pizza. Again I'm
going to top this with my bacon. Now you
could use rashers of bacon that can look
like cool actually but I can only find
diced bacon here in Italy, so I'm going to
use their diced Bacon. Now very shortly
our Pizza's are going in the oven, so make
sure you preheated it to 220 degrees
Celsius or 430 Fahrenheit, nice and hot
because just before it goes into the
oven we're going to break three eggs
onto here. So first of all, what I want to
do is make a little bit of a dam, push
some cheese towards the outside edge,
crack our egg
and I'm just going to break it in on top
of the pizza. So it's basically a bacon
and egg pizza. I'm going to do this with
three eggs. Now our Pizza is ready to go in
the oven, we're going to bake this
between 12 and 15 minutes until it's
lovely and golden brown. Now take a look
at this gorgeous aussie pizza and don't
be afraid to cook it for the full 15
minutes, we want it to flirt a little bit
with being burnt on the edges like that.
Put that out onto my board so whilst
it's still fairly hot I'm going to get
myself a slice of this pizza, ordinarily
when I'm back in Australia I'd cook this
on my pizza stone but this has worked
out pretty well just as it is. Let's give
it a try well that's a blast from down
under, Pizza with barbecue sauce
absolutely lovely. If you're making
pizzas at any time or if you're
following the bread series and make your
own pizza bases give this a try and let
me know in the comments what you think.
Share the love, give this a thumbs up and
I will see you very shortly, take care

Android に格安 SIM を挿して運用するためにモバイルネットワークの APN を設定する方法 - Duration: 3:32.
How to set the APN of the mobile network in order to operate it refers to a cheap SIM to Android
Hello everyone
This time, we will introduce how to set the APN of the mobile network in order to operate refers to a cheap SIM to Android
Also recently has been spread MVNO services such as SIM-free Android smartphone or cheap SIM in Japan
If you want to use the cheap SIM, basically it is necessary to perform a set of mobile network name (APN),
Also no longer be able to use the data communication in the mobile network refers to the cheap SIM If you do not do this setting
Because by cheap SIM and Android smartphones are also those that have the APN information from the beginning, but there are also things that can be the use of data communication only by inserting a SIM,
Since the loss even if you know the APN setting method is also applicable effective against not, those who do not know I think you'll remember all means
The APN information to companies that provide cheap SIM before you set the APN has published prepared at hand, and please keep insert the cheap SIM to Android
Not if you can not perform the APN settings inserted the SIM
How to actually set the APN of Android is you enjoy slightly different procedures depending on the model and OS version, the setting items are stored in substantially the same location
First, open the settings of Android, in the "Wireless and network" category and touch the item, such as "More" and "data communication"
This part is different from me on the model, but basically will flow to touch the related items "network" or "mobile communication"
And then touch the "mobile network" is displayed
In addition to touch the items, such as is the "access point name" and "APN" display
Is a list of APN the page to be displayed is set to Android
To set up the new APN is, at the top of the screen "+" and then touch the icon
We will continue to enter the APN information you just provided to each item of this screen
APN setting item of there fine, but basically will be the only set five of the "name", "APN" "Username" "Password" "Authentication Type"
Others do not need to touch
The "name" will not be able to save the settings and do not enter, but this is not a problem in any of the name
Touch the top right corner of the menu icon After you enter each item, and then touch the "Save"
This APN set in will be saved
If you enable and then touch the button to the APN the right side after was set name, it should be able to mobile network data communication of cheap SIM that is inserted in Android
Please have a look at the set again because if the data communication by the mobile network at this time does not start there is a possibility is incorrect APN
Above, was the introduction of how to set the APN of the mobile network in order to operate it refers to a cheap SIM to Android

Oh Wonder - Ultralife (Lyrics) - Duration: 3:32.
Lovesick the beat inside my head Waves struck a sea of bitterness
Lights out solo in the blue Before I found you
Days passed slowly, lost and low You gave me hope and now there's only
And I got love falling like the rain I never could've asked for more I got so much soul inside my bones
Blood running in my veins I've never been here before
Take a look at me now I'm young forever in the sun Ever since you came I'm living ultralife (ultralife, ultralife)
I'm living ultralife (ultralife, ultralife) I'm living ultralife
Turn down the voice inside my head Cos heaven only knows why we feel this emptiness
But I will climb out, find another view Now I've found you
But I will climb out, find another view Now I've found you
Days passed slowly, lost and low You gave me hope and now there's only
Blood running in my veins I've never been here before
And I got love falling like the rain I never could've asked for more
I got so much soul inside my bones Take a look at me now
I'm young forever in the sun Ever since you came I'm living ultralife
Ultralife with me, ultralife with me Ultralife with me, ultralife with me
Lovesick the beat inside my head Waves struck a sea of bitterness
Lights out solo in the blue But now I've found you
Blood running in my veins I've never been here before And I got love falling like the rain I never could've asked for more
I never could've asked for more I got so much soul inside my bones Take a look at me now
I'm young forever in the sun Ever since you came I'm living ultralife (Ultralife with me, ultralife with me)
I'm living ultralife (Ultralife with me, ultralife with me) Oh, we're living ultralife
We're living ultralife I'm living ultralife (Ultralife with me)

Independent Lens | National Bird | "You Said it Was Okay to Kill Them" | PBS - Duration: 2:01.
It was like slow motion, and it was like you're watching
someone just drag themself
across the field.
When you watch someone in those dying moments--
what their reaction is, how they're reacting,
and what they're doing-- [sighs]--it's so primitive.
It's really raw, stripped-down death.
That's what it is. This is real.
Like, this isn't-- it's not a joke.
I have specific memories of many of them
that I know I killed, but it's so messy and, like,
they don't report it down to us who we killed.
Maybe we killed our objective; maybe we killed a guy
who we thought was our objective.
We don't know.
And I can say the drone program's wrong
because I don't know how many people I've killed.
After we would do a strike, then I would ask for a break
and, like, go outside and smoke a cigarette and just think
and, like, try to decompress and just try to push the, like,
idea that I was involved in killing people, um,
out of my mind and, like, try not to think about it.
Sometimes, if I couldn't really get out of the situation
for very long, I would just go to the bathroom and--and just
sit on the toilet, like, just sit there in my uniform
and just, like, cry and just think
about, like, what I was doing.
It was just different emotional responses.
I mean, a lot of times afterwards, I would feel
just empty, and if I was crying, it was because I just
didn't know... how to stop feeling like that,
how to stop feeling like a shell,
and it was...that empty void.
And it was--I was, like,
always shaking after we would do strikes
'cause it's such an adrenaline rush.
You're--you're killing someone.
You see someone die because you said it was OK to kill them.

How to Survive School Without Going Insane! - Duration: 10:19.
Good morning, good afternoon, or good evening, depending on when you are watching this.
Forget about the chicken at the beginning of this video, that literally has nothing
to do with this video other than I wanted to show you me holding a chicken.
So, what is the point of this video?
I think we need to ask ourselves, "Just what are we trying to do with this film?"
Well, if you read the title, you'd know that this is about surviving school and remaining
sane.
And I'd like to say first, I am not the most qualified person to talk about this.
But I have been through High School, and I did graduate.
So that is part of what I consider as my credentials for being able to talk about this.
So, listen to me if you will.
You can take this advice, or you don't have to.
Some things that helped me through school was the idea of...um...
Something that helped me through school was the mental mindset.
We need purpose.
You're not gonna use the caliber of math that you learn outside of school.
You're probably not gonna need to know MLA format, and if you do, you can learn it not
in school.
A lot of things that bugged me going through school is just knowing, like, I could learn
all of these things better, faster, more efficiently, and all that kind of stuff...just like all
around better, by actually doing the job.
Uh, not enough entertainment value.
Not creative enough.
So that really frustrated me.
But my dad told me that it is not about learning real life skills, it's actually about growing
your brain.
Which makes a lot of sense to me, because why else would you learn that kind of stuff.
So that helps a little bit, but, you know, it's...*sigh*
It's like I could be growing my brain other places, doing better, more interesting things.
It's just...it's hard getting that motivation.
Not enough imagination.
That mental mindset, so something that helps me, is I think of it like a game.
School is a game, that, uh, some people have the high score on, and it's literally just
you get the most points that you can, and you finish the game.
It is not the most exciting game to play, but there are good things about it.
What do I mean by game?
It's...not...
Well, let me tell you one thing I mean about it.
When you write a paper, or when you do literally any assignment.
The...okay...
Professor James!
I'm Professor James.
Can you please make, like a, a graph for me?
I'm Professor James.
Okay, take a look at this graph.
The bottom scale is the amount of time put into said assignment.
And the left scale is the grade you get.
If you notice, there's diminishing returns really fast.
Really fast.
So let's say that you have an assignment, and if you spend ten minutes on it you get
a C, if you spend a half-hour on it you get a B, and if you spend an hour on it you get
an A. I would say go for the A, but if you don't
have that time, time manage your stuff.
Instead of getting all overwhelmed by the shear amount of work, for one, take into account
what is most important, which grade matters to me the most, actually care about getting
good grades because it does help you later on.
I actually got a scholarship for good grades.
Boom!
Money.
You think you're smart, dont'cha?
Good stuff.
Get good grades, but don't get held up by them.
Don't, don't go to school.
Go play the game.
This isn't for everyone.
Um...some people have this motivation naturally and that's awesome.
I don't.
I had to play the game.
I had to play it like a game.
When I play a video game, I look for the secrets, I look for stuff that other people don't know,
and I look for a way to exploit the game.
And school can be exploited.
And that's one of the ways to exploit it.
Knowing the graph of the work to grade output.
So people who are A students, probably, I don't know, have to work twice as hard, or
whatever, than the people who are B students.
Let's just say twice as hard.
That's a nice number.
And then twice as hard as C, and then twice as hard as D.
When you get to the F, you're not working at all.
So, like, actually put in some work, and you could literally, easily scrape by with a B
or a C, like, throughout your whole high school career by putting in not that much effort.
Because, teachers look for effort, and they look for stuff, but trust me, you can write
an essay, and if it is just garbage, like literally just, you threw it together on a
page, you'll definitely get a better grade than if you do nothing.
If you take ten minutes to just throw up onto a piece of paper and hand that in.
Like, you'll do so much better.
And if you take that extra amount of time to actually write something that makes sense.
You'll do awesome, honestly.
Play the game.
Exploit the game.
I'm not saying this to be lazy.
Don't be lazy.
But school is not about talent.
It is not about who is better at something naturally.
People who do great in school are the ones who put in the work.
So don't be lazy.
Do the work.
Put in the time.
Put in the effort.
And literally you'll do great.
You don't have to be a genius to go through school.
Perhaps a long time ago, that's what it was.
Not anymore.
There are definitely kids who are smarter than A students who get B's and C's, because
they don't put in that work.
Another part where the "play the game" works as a metaphor is not only the exploiting the
grade system, which is fairly easy to do.
Teachers and staff in general, get to know them.
They're real people.
Don't be a jerk, don't just...
What do you want me to do?
Curtsy when I come to school?
Make good relationships with people.
It helps, so much.
You will go so far, and it is not hard, and it will make your life so much better.
It'll make your life so much easier.
Exploit it.
Play the game.
Don't make fake relationships.
Don't do it for the perks or whatever.
And trust me, there are.
It is great having a friend as a teacher, not only for like having that relationship
with them, and getting to know them, and learning from them.
But they will help you out.
They'll be more likely to do so.
And this is something I've found out.
There are teachers who are jerks, just the worst people.
But that is very, very often not the case.
I have met some wonderful teachers.
And...that are just...
They helped me so much.
They were looking out for me.
Just great people, so I don't know your situation, but
There are awesome teachers, so use that.
They're really doing their best to help you.
Play the game.
Literally, it is a game.
And just like the game of life, or whatever, this is a game as well.
The game of school.
And I guess just know that you're not...
Know that you're not alone.
School is boring, often.
School...
It feels contrived at times.
It feels pointless at times.
And sometimes it probably is, but know that school is really, really good and try and
stick with it.
I've made it through, and I just wanted to share some of these things to help you make
it through, because it's...it's...it's hard.
It's really hard.
And it's not even the work that got me.
It's the motivation to do the work.
I think this ties in a lot with life, though.
I've kind of slowly started to find that people who are successful, they're talented, sure,
and they have that natural talent, but a lot of times, the people who are successful are
the ones who work hard, and they work the hardest.
So, go that extra mile, and work hard at something.
And just, do it.
Exploit the things that you can, like the grade system.
Literally, life will go on, and ten years later, it is very likely not gonna matter
to you what score you got on that quiz.
What score you got on that test.
Whatever, it doesn't matter.
That's no excuse.
All the more reason to do it.
Some things just literally don't matter enough to not do them.
Quick aside about Minnesota weather.
It's really nice out today.
I know there's snow on the ground, but you know.
I actually had to turn the heat off in the car today.
It's crazy during this time of year when it's just cold and then it's warm.
Two days ago it was cold and now today it's warm...eh...whatever.
Have fun in school.
Make good relationships with not only the teachers but the students.
And...you'll...
It'll be much more enjoyable.
I've seen people who don't do that, and it's just like if you literally just took ten minutes
you're life would be so much easier.
I understand the feeling of, like, why am I doing this.
There's literally no point.
You're right, there's literally no academic point of doing lots of the stuff we do in school.
That's okay.
It's a game.
I'm sure there are plenty of people who would disagree with me.
So I don't know if this'll help you, but it helped me just thinking of it as a game, rather
than an actual, like, learning experience.
I learned to play the game.
So I hope this video helps a little bit. I don't know.
This is just stuff that I've learned going through life, and school particularly.
Um, yeah, I guess just to sum up, work hard, make good relationships, and think of it in a different
way.
Because it really isn't about the school, it's about the work.
And so if you just take the time to do a little bit of work, you'll, you'll get those returns,
and it'll be great.
So, that's really all I want to say, and just encourage you to keep going at it.
I know it's hard.
End of the school year, it's difficult to find...
especially for seniors.
*chills* Don't need that again.
Anyway, keep going hard.
You're gonna make it.
It's gonna be great.
And you'll be glad that you worked hard.
If you like this video, you can like it.
If not, then dislike it.
If you wanna see more videos like this, you can subscribe.
Or you don't have to.
See yah next Friday, so thank you for watching.
God bless!
This, right here, is a 500 year-old Red Pine tree.
Just thought I'd show you.
Here, I'll hug the tree. *chuckles*

Independent Lens | National Bird | NSA Analyst Turned Activist | PBS - Duration: 1:32.
Radack: Daniel is in the worst of all worlds
because the government clearly
has an espionage investigation into him,
and now this is a sword of Damocles hanging
over his head, that he could be indicted
any day or years from now
for--for espionage
because the government suspects that he is
a source of information
about the drone program
that the government doesn't want out there.
Daniel: I've discussed with my lawyers to the full extent
everything that I think that this investigation
could be about.
A lot of that is details that I simply could never talk about
on film, but what I will say is that it's likely to do with
the fact that I am someone who has both worked
for the intelligence community and who's politically active,
and therefore they are suspicious of my,
uh--of my background.
