| 0:42.1 | at core Christianity.com. First up, let's go to Michael, who's calling in from Maryland Heights, Missouri. |
| 0:49.4 | Michael, what's your question for Adrial? Can you hear me okay? Hey, Michael, I can hear you well. Oh, good. Thank you. Yeah, Pastor, I just had a question. |

| 2:11.6 | I don't think personally that it's like a physical tattoo that an individual gets. |
| 2:16.6 | Remember, this is highly symbolic imagery and actually it's like a physical tattoo that an individual gets. Remember, this is highly symbolic imagery. |
