Hey everybody I'm Matt. This is the 10 minute Bible in our podcast you remember yesterday

when everything was real sad and it was a somber episode and we're sad about

things I remember it but today's gonna be completely different because we're

gonna talk about 1999 cinematic classic mystery men do. Do you remember this show? It had Ben Stiller in it as a person whose superpower was that he got very angry and it had...

What's the guy's name? Oh it's right right there, William H. Macy, it was the

shovels, his power is that he shovels well and had West Studi study. I'm not quite sure how

you say it. He played Magwa in the last of the Mohicans, but he plays a character called the Sphinx in this movie, and the Sphinx is terribly mysterious. That's his power. He's a Mexican luchador wrestler type character, but he gives counsel and training to all of the other

mystery men in a delightful training montage, but he always flips these sayings on his

head. So these are some of his classics. He says to

Mr. Furious at one point, when you can balance a tack hammer on your head, you will

head off your foes with a balanced attack. He also says he who questions

training only trains himself at asking questions.

And he also says, to learn my teachings, I must first to teach you how to learn.

The whole movie is a treasure trove of this stuff and I remember the first time we watched

that we came out of there making up all of our own Sphinx sayings forever.

Likewise in Matthew Chapter 10 we're getting introduced to another theme, another thing that we're going to see repeated that's already been heavily

hinted at but here it's laid out structurally this little turn of a phrase

technique that's like the Sphinx by Jesus in such a way that you're not going to be able to miss it moving forward.

He says stuff like this all the time.

So we're going to pick it up in verse 37 where Jesus has just finished giving these three reassurances for why the disciples don't

need to be afraid when they go on their big open world quest and then he goes on to

talk about the fact that this is going to bring friction don't be surprised by the friction there's even going to bring friction. Don't be surprised by the friction.
