season three finale of stable talk. We have Shannon Snyder, senior defender from Westminster, Maryland, and Kirsten Foster, junior defender from Lothian, Maryland. Is that how you say it? Yeah. Or Lothian. Lothian. Lothian, Maryland. Yeah, this is our season finale of season three. Do you guys just want to like do some quick like bio information? Maybe like how you got to Stevenson? Why do you play lacrosse? Just quick. Shannon, you can go first. Okay. So I'm Shannon Snyder. I'm a senior defender on the women's lacrosse team. I'm a, did I say I was a bio major? I don't know. I'm a bio major with a psych minor. I actually first came to Stevenson, committed to soccer, and I went through that. I played soccer and lacrosse both my freshman year and ended up sticking with lacrosse and not both. Both was a little much with my bio major. So I just kind of stuck with lacrosse. Just it was that family sense that I wanted. Like I love the girls and everything that came with it. And it was just fun for me. It just made me love the sport. I played it in high school. I never expected to play it in college and I just loved it ever since. Yeah. So I'm Kirsten Foster, junior defender like Shannon. Well, not junior, but from Lothian, like you said. Where's Lothian? It's like 20 minutes south of Annapolis. So I really thought I was in Frederick County. I really thought I was in Frederick County. Nobody knows where it is. I'm like, it's just near Annapolis. It's like Savannah Park. Further south. Okay. Yeah. But so I played three sports in high school, like Shannon did. We're like the same. We're like the same person. She's just a year younger than me. What's the third sport? Yeah, what's the third sport? So soccer, basketball, lacrosse. And I like didn't play club lacrosse. I played for one season. I never thought I was going to play in college, but just being an athlete, I was like, I need that motivation.  Ask anybody on my team. That's true. But yeah, I just like needed to play a sport. So I started looking local. Um, and Stevenson was great, like an hour and a half away from home. And my family can come to all the games. So that was like the deal breaker. Yeah. Which sport do you guys miss more? Soccer, basketball, soccer? Since I experienced it in college, I like got that sense and like it kind of like, I don't know, maybe it drove me a little bit more away from soccer, but I miss basketball so much. I love watching college basketball so much. Did you ever play in high school? I used to like be on the turf every day, no matter what. So did you, I guess your schools never played each other in high school or did they? No. What high school did you go to? Southern. Oh, no. I went to Winnersville High School. Yeah. No. I miss like the competitive aspect of basketball and like contact, but like there's none of that. You get up there? Sorry, did you hear my computer? I didn't know about you guys. It was making those noises again. So I just like turned it off. I'm having technical difficulties today and my computer, my work computer is one of them. That's why I'm on my mom's computer. All right. Well, we'll do a trivia in a sec, but first it is December. Have you guys done like your Christmas shopping and stuff or where are you at with that stuff? Absolutely. I shop all year round. Me too. I have all of it done, but I love Christmas shopping decoration, like shopping for decorations. So I go on Christmas tree, I have one upstairs. Yeah, like Christmas tree is cute in the back. Or is this not my Christmas tree? Yeah, I love it. Mostly done online shopping? Basically, yeah. I think that's like the easiest, it just sends. Yeah. Now I have to, so. This is Black Friday shopping. Yeah, I did too. Me too. I did go out for Black Friday, but it was like to Target and like one other place and that was it. Is it crowded? The Target was. Bella and Target is always crowded. Bella and Target is always crowded, but they had like, you could tell that it was more crowded because they had like mind and like the like ropes that connect to separate people and stuff. But yeah, Target was crowded. Have you guys made any Christmas cookies or anything? I tried to make, so like at my house at school with my roommates, I tried to make these sugar cookies. There was a handmade roll. Yeah, I tried, but it was not because I didn't know you had to freeze the dough before you put it in the oven for it to keep the shape. And those things were like the flattest, crispiest cookies I've ever made. I was so disappointed. I'm just not a baker, so like my roommates will bake stuff, but I'll eat them. I don't, I don't. Okay. I feel like I've never been a cooker or a baker, but like the past like month or two, I've baked like just like five or six different things and I've never baked before my life. How they turn out? Were they good? Yeah. I think I'm missing my collet and there's some things. I made these like, I hear what they're called. They're like doughnut pumpkin muffins. I made this back in like Halloween time and they were like golden like cinnamon sugar and like pumpkin. Oh my God, they were so good. That sounds pretty banging. It was so good. And like, I did everything perfect. Like you've been making cakes too, haven't you? Didn't you make a cake or two? Oh wait, I forgot. I shouldn't have been talking about how good my baking was because the cake I made for my mom's birthday in September was horrible. It was a hot milk cake. But it sounds like you redeemed yourself. Yeah, I did, but it was a hot milk cake and we went to like a Mexican restaurant for her birthday, but it brought the cake with me and the milk is, it's hot milk for a reason. It's just like warm the milk before you put it in. I didn't do that or eating. I was like, yeah, something's wrong with this. And I was like explaining to my mom what I had done. And she's like, you didn't heat up the milk or boil it or something. And I also like put a stick of butter in it and the stick of butter was cold.  So I was like, oh, well, it'll melt anyway once I put it in the oven. But like, you're not supposed to do that. I wouldn't have done the same thing though. We want to do trivia now. Yeah. Okay. Get ready. We have three questions for you and then like a little bonus. In the last 12 women's across seasons, how many of those 12 were winning seasons? 10. I was going to say nine. 11. Underestimated. Okay. How many Mac Commonwealth championships game appearances does women's lacrosse have? It's definitely more than that. I was going to say six. Yeah.  Two? I was like, it's definitely more than two. I thought about us and then the time we won. That's all I could remember. Okay. What current or past season women's lacrosse member currently holds the record for ground balls? Sarah? Do you know how many? And then the bonus is how many? Wait, how many in like total of her career? Yeah. Three, three plus the few weeks that you have to say that for you. I feel like my dog in the basement. Okay. I would say he's definitely 284. 284 is my guess. No, no, two of them. Now I gotta like plan this out. Like 130. She hears voices like coming from my laptop and thinking to my mom. Love puppy. Now the guys were both from all of them, fortunately, but it was 178. I gave her a lot more. I don't know if she made it to 184 if there was. She probably could have made it up to that. Yeah. 100% one of. Yeah. All right. We'll do would you rather in a second? But first you guys got, we always tell people they gotta tell us like their favorite coach story. I have one. I don't know if it's like a true story or not. Hit us. Hit us. Tell us a lie. But like freshman year, everybody told us that she was like deathly afraid of birds. So then like at practice, like birds like would fly over the field and we would just like look to see her reaction and she had no reaction. So I don't know if it's true or not. I know the bird that flies over the field where I'm like, coach is going to freak out. I don't know if it's true or not. It's true. It's only the big birds. Like those little pigeons don't bother her. It's like that big like a hawk or what? The ones that eat stuff. Yeah. Yeah. I can see that. I have a little bit of a fear of birds that have big wings. Like that it will pick you up or attack you or like the sound of their wings. That's what it is for her. I think I'm pretty sure like the sound of those flying wings or like if it like comes near her, it's definitely just the big birds because she has had a reaction to the big bird over practice. I've only really had a reaction over like seagulls. If they're sitting near me, it's fine. But when they're like flapping their wings around you. Yeah, seagulls at the beach are always annoying. I used to work as like a beach lifeguard in Rehoboth and they would like swarm the stand and like I'd be like, oh my god. I can definitely understand that fear. Okay. Would you rather? Would you rather have more time or more money? Time. I'm a procrastinator. So I'd just take the money. I feel that. I would just use up all the time. Buy more time with all the money, I feel like. Would you rather have to walk to school 40 minutes both ways and have free tuition or would you rather drive to campus in less than 10 minutes but your tuition's doubled? Oh, walk.  I know, but like I also was thinking I was like, you know, 40 minutes walking is like so normalized in like a city. But if you were to walk in Owingsville for 40 minutes, like you'd be like, what is that girl doing? Yeah, I'm trying to think of how many like miles 40 minutes would be. I was going to say you could pick it up to a jog or a run and we can make it there in like 20. Yeah, yeah, I would probably have to do that. I'd rather probably run. Yeah, I'd rather run it than walk. Yeah. All right, would you rather only be able to wear sweatpants for the rest of your life or never be able to wear sweatpants? Only. Yeah, only. Only. Yeah. I feel like I would go to never, I don't know, because I would miss shorts. Does that mean you're not allowed to wear shorts? Is that what that means? Roll them up. You can make them capris and then you can make them short. Roll them up. I guess. I don't know. I might have to go with never again, because I will wear shorts until it's like. One of those. Because like I just get so hot. I can't control my body temperature. So I like I need. I'm always cold. Like a sweatshirt in shorts. I'm good at that. I have a heated blanket on my lap right now. Pretty high quality. Yeah. Okay. Would you rather only have your paycheck given to you in pennies or never be able to use cash ever again? Never use cash. Never use cash. I already told you. That one's kind of easy. Wait, did I word it wrong? Or would you rather only ever be able to use cash? Like you can't use a debit or credit card. Like you always have to have that amount of cash in your wallet. How about that? Okay. So either your paycheck in all pennies or only use cash. That one's a bit harder. I think I'd still use cash.  Can you know like extremely inconvenient? Yeah. At least ours. Like this sounds so bad, but I feel like I've thrown away.  I'm like I don't want the coins. At the restaurant. I won't pick it up. But if it's a restaurant I used to be a server for, they would tell us that if it was cash we had to split it between everyone that worked. But if it was coins you got to keep it. So I used to tell my friends and family if I was waiting them to just like tip me in coins. And then I just wouldn't have to split it. There you go. I just want to have that. I'm sure that was like unethical, but you wait on the table. So yeah, yeah, exactly. Money. All right. Would you rather have to hunt and gather for all your food or only eat McDonald's? That's a pretty harsh question. Yeah, because like that one guy died from eating so much McDonald's. Yeah, this is a pretty harsh question. Wasn't that like the supersize me thing? I think I'd have to hunt and gather because I could not eat McDonald's. My stomach could not eat me. Yeah, hunt and gather. What would you, what would be your like thing that you would go hunt for? I would fish. Start with fishing then go, probably go try to shoot a deer. You guys fished or hunted before? Both things are just fished. I feel like I've never shot a deer or anything like that. I haven't shot a deer, but I've attempted. There you go. You're one step into the game. But I don't have the patience for fishing though. That's my only problem. I can't be quiet enough for hunting. I can't just sit there and I'm like, I can't do it.  Did you write this one? Yes. I can tell. Would you rather celebrate the 4th of July with Taylor Swift or Christmas with Mariah Carey? Christmas with Mariah Carey. I feel like she'd be mean. I think she'd be mean too. Mariah Carey. Yeah. She'd be the person. Like if I didn't dress nice enough for her, I feel like she would do it. Yeah. Uh, yeah, I'd still do Christmas. Well, like I've heard that Taylor Swift like throws these like amazing 4th of July parties at like that Rhode Island house that I don't know if you guys are Taylor Swift. Like always on the water. Like her friends are always on the boat. Yeah. And she has a big Rhode Island house. I feel like I live before she lives in Rhode Island. Well, she has a house in Rhode Island. She has one of her houses in Rhode Island. Yeah. Which one would you choose? Do you want to be running out of time? I don't really have a calling either way on this one. I guess we'll go with Mariah Carey because I don't really like Taylor Swift's music. Okay. All right. This one I changed the name to. Burning Questions. It may seem Jay's burning questions. Like Ellen's burning questions. They seem Jay's burning questions.  So I'll say the question and then we'll do Kirsten. You'll answer first and then Shannon you'll follow right after. Oh gosh. And you you're allowed to pass if you don't want to answer but like don't pass everyone because it's not as fun. Okay. Am I doing a timer? Yeah. Should we be longer than two minutes because he's only got two. Yeah. We can do like two thirty. Two thirty. Okay. Do we get like a heads up on one it's on so I can like get ready to prepare? They're just like silly stuff. Okay. Some are like lacrosse. They're just not like serious questions. Are you ready Jay? Yeah. Three, two, one. Okay. What are you going to do right right directly after you get off this podcast? Finals. Homework. What's the most fun you've ever had on the lacrosse field? The run tests. Beating Messiah. Running clock. Oh. Okay. Finish the sentence. You can't ever have too much blank. Money. Time. Okay. What's what is your hidden talent? I run a lot. I run a lot. I guess when he comes to running. I didn't talent. I passed out and I don't think I have anything hidden. What's your current TV or movie obsession? I watch cooking shows. Vampire Diaries. Who is your first celebrity crush? Probably somebody like there's one guy in Wizards of Waverly Place. I think I liked him. I can't remember. Oh, I know you're talking about. They're Justin. What's his name? I don't remember once we're done. I know you're talking about. Where was the Werewolf Boyfriend? One of those. It was. I know you're talking about. My Theo James from Divergent. What are your three things you must, what are three things that you must do every single day? Brush my teeth. Shower and eat cosmic brownies. I love you. I would say I work out every day. I take a scolding hot shower every day. I eat eggs every day for breakfast. Nice. If you could only watch one reality TV show for the rest of your life, which one would it be?  Yes, no, me too. I would say The Bachelorette. I like both of those. I couldn't choose. If you could teach one subject in school, what would it be? Math. I want to be like the cool math teacher since everybody hates it. Science, like human anatomy or something like that. What's your dream job? Teacher. Okay, my unrealistic one is a bracketologist. My realistic one is an orthopedic PA. Okay. Where do you not mind waiting? Okay, we'll keep going. But you guys only have three questions left. That's very good. Where do you not mind waiting? In line at like a store that I like, if I really like the store. Mine would be for any type of food. What's your favorite holiday or Christmas song? Christmas's favorite holiday. Song, song, song. No, I think mine just cut out. I was like, what? All good classic. I'll do Jingle Bells. My only one for Christmas is you. I'm a writer. There we go. And last one. What's the weirdest present that you've ever received for Christmas? My mom got me like this bright orange sweater. I don't know if she thought I would wear it. I got it in middle school. It still has a towel. Yeah, I was gonna ask. I can't throw it away. There has to be some type of clothing that I just didn't ask for now. I do my own shopping and I give it to them and ahead of time they just give it to me a month later for Christmas. They've learned from it. That's funny. That's it. Wait, but I do have a question about the jobs that you guys both said. I don't remember what it was, but I didn't remember. I didn't know what either of them were. The dream job. What was yours? What's the first one that you said? What is that? It's a bracketologist, so during more time, most people that like basically get paid to like make brackets. That's nice. Are there some, I'm guessing like, do they do other brackets throughout the year? No, because it's only within March, like that tournament. So like they just watch college basketball throughout. Like obviously it started already, but so they just, they're watching it now to help them predict for March. Nice. They make a lot of money too. Yeah. And then my other one is actually realistic. So a physician assistant.  So I would work underneath the physician and be their assistant. And I love working with like bones and muscles and stuff like that. So. Macy, we should have been bracketologists. I don't know. Um, I feel like I had another question. Where do you want to be a teacher? What are you, do you want to stay in Maryland? Uh, I don't really know. My boyfriend's like really hard, so he has to find a job with like space, I guess. So I can go wherever basically. True. That's a nice thing about being a teacher. And I want to do like special ed. Okay. Well, we have two minutes and 30 seconds left because we can't afford, um, premium Zoom. We always tell people if they want to shout out anyone or if they have any favorite motivational quotes or any social medias they want to plug. Yeah. Um, I'll shout out my mom because she's going to watch this as soon as the orange sweater. Yeah. Yeah. Shout out to mom. Love you. Yeah. I guess I'd say my parents because they're like you said they're going to watch as soon as it comes out. Okay. I'll say hi to them and then my sister Erin. Great. All right. Well, happy holidays. Good luck on finals. Thank you. Stay safe. Stay in isolation.


Animations really add that special flash and touch in an app and it really enhances the user experience and in this lesson we are going to dive into the core animation API directly and we're going to learn how to use keyframe animations and combine them together and add them to an animation group so that you can create a custom animation or yourself that's composed of smaller animations or different animations inside of the group and this tutorial is actually a continuation of a keyframe animation series that I'm starting so if you haven't seen part one make sure you check that out it dives into more of the UI kit version of how to do more of a block-based approach but this is going to be actually using and constructing animations directly so let's open up Xcode and get started. So this lesson picks up where the other iOS keyframe animation lesson left off we're going to still be doing a lot of the same things but we're going to be building our keyframe animations using core animation directly instead of using the UI kit blocks-based API that we did last time so we'll be achieving similar results but you'll get to see how to actually construct these animations manually and how we can use them in conjunction with an animation group so this is going to be in in Xcode playground so you can go ahead and create one and get set up and if you want to pause the screen right now you can add in the code that I have here and this is just the code to get set up and just center a view in a view controller and we'll start working from here if you haven't seen part one of this tutorial I'll link a card up above and you can go and check that out but really so what we're going to do here is to get set up we have our code here for loading our view and positioning it so we'll create another function maybe right down here and we'll call that function trigger animations and we'll just call that right at the end of view did layout sub views now just disclaimer here when you are kind of modeling and prototyping this code positioning things and calling things from view did layout sub views might not necessarily be applicable for your app so keep that in mind for where you see me actually setting this up I'm doing this in the playground for a demonstration so you might not want to do it exactly the same way but the core of this tutorial is going to be an actually the animations themselves which you can apply anywhere in your app so just keep that in mind as we go through these things but so let's get started and we'll go and construct our first animation and then we'll talk about it a little bit and kind of see how it works from part one we implemented a lot of uiview.animate keyframes blocks right and we did individual animations inside of these blocks and kind of went through all the UI kit methods and APIs and so and that works and that's fine but you know there's a more manual approach actually animating the layers themselves so you don't really have to know too much about core animation to do these kinds of things but now that we're diving into this more we want to take a look at what a ca layer is because really this is the underlying thing that we're animating when we're performing these animations so looking at the documentation you know it's pretty simple an object that manages image-based content and allows you to perform animations on that content but really I think the best explanation is right here it's the backing store for views but it can also be used without a view to display content and the main job of a layer is to manage the visual content that you provide but the layer itself has visual attributes that can be set such as background color so on and so forth and when we go back to Xcode and we look at something like the view for example view to animate right dot layer you can see that it has a layer and we can command click and jump the definition and see that okay you know every every view comes equipped with the layer and if we command click on ca layer we can see here some of the documentation for what it is and kind of the different things we can do with it and kind of read up on it and see you know there's things like bounds position the z position anchor point lots of the things that we're used to seeing on ui views and so as we create these animations we're going to be applying these animations to the layer of the view and let's just get started with a really basic one so you can kind of understand how all of this triggers in so we can start with doing an animation for the background color changing this from blue to any number of different colors doing keyframe animation and so what that looks like is something like this we start off with defining a keyframe animation so color keyframe animation which is a ca keyframe animation and ca stands for core animation that's why they call everything with it or start everything with the ca and we'll use the key path initializer here and so this is the string and if you remember there are animatable properties that we can run animations on so background color would be the one we want to use here and we have to define it like this and at this point what we can do here is use a couple properties from this so if we command click into ca keyframe animation and read up about it where is it in here ca keyframe there we go we have we can see that it derives from a property animation which is another base class there are things such as values key times a path timing functions and a few other things here that you can you can read up on and use but we're mainly going to be using the values and the key times for our animations in this tutorial but let's go back here and start filling these in so for our color keyframe animation dot values it's a collection you can see and it's collection of any it's an optional collection what i'm going to do here is supply it with a few different colors so i'm going to start off with ui color dot purple dot cg color ui color dot blue or actually now it's already blue we'll do red dot cg color and ui color orange dot cg color and we're going to basically animate between these three different colors in an animation cycle and we'll also do something like this color keyframe animation dot key times equals an array of what so key times is going to be when a certain animation might start it's always governed between the values of zero and one so if i say you know i have a 10 second animation and i want to start it at i don't know the halfway mark i'm going to use 0.5 for the value and key times because that's right in the middle between zero and one and that would be from you know zero through 10 i'd be right at five or the middle of the animation block that's running so what we can do here is you know add some values there so we can say okay you know we want these animations to trigger from i don't know zero to zero dot 25 do something dot 25 maybe at zero dot 75 do something else and so the next thing we need to do is actually add in an animation duration right so how long is this animation going to occur i can say it's going to occur for maybe four seconds right um i can say something like i want it to auto reverse so it completes this cycle and then it undoes what it did um i could do a repeat count if i wanted to but um color keyframe animation that repeat count maybe equals three right and so we're all set at this point so what we can do is add this animation to the layer so view to animate dot layer dot add and you can see here there's a ca animation and then a key but the key is just the name of the animation if you want to subscribe to delegate methods and know what animation finished but i don't care about that right now so i'm going to pass it no um so color keyframe animation and no for the key and let's see what this looks like and so you see here they it's kind of animating through the colors it's going from blue to purple to orange let me speed it up that's a little bit slow i'll do it maybe over one second so it's a little bit faster you can see though it's animating through the colors and that's that's that's the basic idea for um how to apply an animation so let's continue forward and go through a few different other animations so let's try doing the position dot x or the animating across the x axis just to see so similarly we can create a um let's position or let's call it the horizontal position equals a ca keyframe for a key and this one's going to be called position dot x um and what i'm going to do here is for the values horizontal position dot values we'll go ahead and define that as zero to 100 for the timings we'll do horizontal position animation dot timings i'm sorry key times and let's see what would be a good value for that um we can do from zero to maybe zero dot three and there's one other property we're going to add and that's horizontal position animation dot is additive equals true animate player dot add the horizontal position animation for key no and i do need to set a duration on this we'll we'll bump this up maybe to three for all of them and horizontal position animation dot duration equals three um horizontal position animation dot auto reverses equals true and um we'll give it a repeat count of three now you can see this is kind of starting to get a little repetitive right i mean you're always having to keep defining these values over and over and over and i'll show you how we can use a group to eliminate a lot of this repetition but let's see what it looks like so there it goes and it's all it should go back because auto reverse is set it goes again and it'll go back but you can see here that i'm constantly doing you know i'm adding two animations i am repeating code repeat count auto reverses i mean yeah i could create a function and do some things to streamline this and just pass in parameters and so on and that would help but what we can also take advantage of is something known as a ca animation group so rather than having to do a lot of these things over and over i can create a group like this so animation group and on the group i can set the duration so that means this is the master time for you know these animations to run in so i'm going to set it to four seconds just give it a little bit more time i can also say the group is going to have the property of dot auto reverses set to true the group could also have the repeat count to whatever number i want and actually if you want to make this repeat indefinitely or infinitely basically you can do something like this you can do float dot greatest finite magnitude and that basically says run my animations forever and then the last thing here let's see we've got auto reverses set repeat counteration we need to actually define the animations that the group's going to have so animation group dot animations equals an array of animations and what we'll do here is we'll pass in the horizontal i think my playground is consuming a little too much power here let me put that on manual run horizontal position animation and color keyframe animation like that and then instead of adding these individual animations we'll just add the group so we can do view to animate dot layer dot add animation group for key pass and null and that lets us not have to repeat things like repeat count auto reverses and duration on the animations we can just set the values in the times because we've already defined this on the group itself so let me remove that let's run it again as a group and see what it looks like and it should look exactly the same it's just everything's running in a group now i also don't need that duration on the color keyframe animation because i forgot i set that on the group so let's add another one let's try doing horizontal one here i'm going to remove the is additive i'm going to change the key to opacity and all i'll need to set now are the times and the values so for the opacity we're going to do a fade in so for a fade in we're going to want it to go between zero and one one dot o for the times i think we can do zero to maybe six five so that means that at sixty five percent of whatever four seconds is whatever that time is the fade in will be complete and let me just call this opacity or fade in and i'll just change the name here and then we'll add it to the group so we'll come back to here and do the fade in as part of that array of animations and we'll run it now and we should see that fade in occur and then everything else that's in that group execute as well now let's go back and and then the fade out because auto reverse is set to true so again let's continue forward and add a few more so we've done where we did position dot x we can do position dot y and move it across the y axis so uh-oh up there we go looks like my playground was about to go haywire so position dot y and um for this one i think i'll use zero to 100 so basically move 100 down on the y axis for the times um i'll do it starting at zero dot six and we'll take that all the way up to one dot o and is additive i'm going to set that to true here which means again um we'll call this position dot y or vertical position vertical position there and there and um vertical position dot is additive and again that just means that from wherever the view is um because it's centered currently in the playground that it should move down 100 points from the center um because it's relative it's basically relative to where it is um at the start of the animation so um do vertical position as part of that and run this again and let's watch it goes down goes back up and auto reverses so if i commented out that whole vertical position here um you can observe what it looks like and see how it's going from up there because it thinks it's from zero to 100 so we've done position dot x and y how about transform scale and rotation just just for the heck of it so i'm just do a grab fade or the opacity one we'll just reuse that we'll read up that as transform dot scale and we'll just call this scale and rename the variables here and here for the values um hmm i'll do it we'll start off at one which means full scale we'll scale down to zero dot one or 10 percent of the original scale it will scale back up to one dot zero we'll do this from zero dot six to one so basically kind of towards the end of the animation to one dot oh it's going to scale down and scale up real fast and um before we do so we can add that to the group so we go down here and add the scale animation to our array of animations and then for the final one we'll just do the rotation one so that's real simple it's just transform dot rotation and all we'll need to do is just change the key times and the values i will try for the values is a little different here because it's not just it's going to be doing something like rotate it by pi so i'm going to do zero to pi it's going to be our rotation or just one complete rotation of the square um i'm going to do from zero dot six to one as well so it'll it'll trigger right when the scale happens i'll just call this rotate and i'll change these scale names to rotate and add that to the collection of animations and let's run it and see what all of these look like together goes down you see there's the rotation in the scale back up and back over and fade out and so that'll run forever um based on how i define the group and this is really something that you can customize and tailor i mean you could create a complex sequence of animations maybe your app does something when you load it or you log in you you log out whatever um you can do a lot of that fancy stuff inside of an animation group and then you can load up your group and just run that right and it's it's just a combination of different things going on in here so there's a lot of ways you can be creative in this and how it impacts your overall user experience in your app just summarize this is really another way to do exactly the same thing that we did in tutorial one it's just this is using core animation directly um and the benefit of this that i think is a nice area is that you can you can kind of control things a little bit tighter outside of running things in blocks now blocks are great and you can use those um in certain situations but if you you really want to define like a custom animation group that's composed of you know these four or five things that have all these certain configurations that specify an animation well you can create that group you can control that in your code and you can call it on the right at the right time to use it and not have to have clunky blocks kind of filling up your your um your methods in your code because you've already maybe constructed it once and you can just add it and remove it and it'll do its thing so that's why i i like you know interacting with the animations this way and it's a little bit more uh lower to the api but again the blocks there's nothing wrong with the blocks based approach um it's good for simple things but the more complicated you get you may want to consider um diving into using some of the ca animations directly and that wraps up this lesson so hopefully you found this helpful and you can see opportunities in your app where you can apply this and where you can really add some special effects and make some cool animations that make your users want to come back and really promote your

you see me and you just sit back and you look at some of the things now we have shown a lot of different video clips cover a lot of different things from time-to-time and then not just from what we see but what you see on other channels and so forth we've seen some outrageous things we've heard some outrageous things especially of late the whole issue that's happening oh I don't know what's going over at transformation church Mike Todd's church but it's a happening place now not biblically happening but something that that occurred to me something that's been in my mind for long so I've actually covered this before and I want to see if you guys see the same thing now some of the more ridiculous clips we've showed before I'm gonna show them briefly I want you just to notice something as we're looking at these clips do this rain subdue all of the things God told Adam to do do you know the greatest problem with that you know the most powerful issue with that you know the most profound challenge with that Adam did not have a body research now he says do the research to the audience is there did you happen to notice anything about the audience now if you go back and watch the video even more you'll notice something about the audience the audience tended to have and they tend to be made up of minorities and women about minorities I'm really speaking of blacks and Hispanics every now and then you might see Asians but typically not as many Asians and then also you'll see women and I think there's a reason for that I think there's a reason for that now you guys feel free to disagree but but just peruse the people that are around the people speaking here's one we've covered before look at the people that are around them look at who's who he's speaking to at the risk of being heretical tonight might I suggest to you that 85% of Jesus's life he was out of order so let me say to all of you now before I go to the next clip this is a lot of whole a whole lot of folks that I'm just feel by I feel bad by saying I really do I really do but hey you know how we say it tell the truth shame the devil bunch of folks that are my hue my color it's bothersome it is I'm gonna be honest it's bothersome but I'm going somewhere with this just hold on but look at this other clip look at this next clip and notice the makeup of the crowd and notice who's cheering for him the most and this is him after he's been caught in his in his affair and without being contrite without showing any sort of remorse he's as in boldness can be I'm still the man and look at who's cheering who are here and I'm finished I want you to know I'm still the man in spite of what it is that God has in fact provided me through in spite of my failures in spite of my shortcomings in spite of my failures in spite of me falling down I'm still the man if you're not here next week I'm still preacher if you don't come Tuesday I'm still preacher if you turn the TV off next Sunday night I'll still be preacher because the anointing on my life is greater than any mistake and if but I know a man that if you ever fell down he'll pick you and they're just they're going crazy they're shouting but then when you look and see who's just going crazy a lot of us it says when I say us is I'm speaking of us darker she faces and then when we look at the women there's a lot of female she now I don't know if they're saved or not I don't know if they're saved or not because being saved that mean that you that your understanding is where it needs to be being saved does not necessarily make you the smartest no no as matter of fact we'll let Mike Todd how how does Mike Todd say it he says it best you can be saved and stupid treat that you can be saved and stupid that's the problem I just wonder what's happening with us now some of you all saw miss whitening to bind them and her prayer Institute $1500 to get your your prayer certificate and then after all that stuff someone asked a question even initially early on is there gonna be some sort of graduation ceremony and what do you know she has a graduation ceremony so as I'm looking at this at this graduation ceremony you don't have wondered I was thinking before I saw it I'm thinking who in the world would pay for this who would be there who would graduate and then as we as we're seeing the pictures as we see the folks going up with their caps and with their gowns and going up to get their little diploma and so forth minorities and women minorities and women and it's like what what are you doing is there no is there's not an ounce or a shred of discernment in you where's your Bible that how come none of you people none of you people are actually reading it you guys are going up and it's a little sweet a little bit more you just it's just black folks after black folks black folks some a few male but mostly female why why is that why is that now I do have a theory now this might wrangle some folks a bit but don't worry about it I might even say something that might be even borderline insulting but it's okay it's so it's okay if what I say is insulting why because I'm bald and I'm which makes me qualified to say something like what I'm getting ready to say it seems as though us blacks and us Hispanics and you ladies maybe we are the spiritually vulnerable people we are the doctrinal vulnerable people is is that what it is because there seems to be some praying on people that look like us now that it mean that there are no white people specifically white men that are involved or that are being hoodwinked and that means there are no people from Middle East and people from Asia meaning maybe Chinese descent Japanese descent so forth that mean that's not happening there either it doesn't mean that they're not victims but when we look at these ministries on large scale blacks Hispanics women blacks Hispanics women blacks Hispanics women yeah you right there there are there are the Mormon population there there are Mormon but we're talking about Christian we're talking about Mormon we're talking about Christian and so the foolishness cuz cuz say what you want to say about the about the Mormons that being there's no six foot three guy throwing a weighted a weighted blanket at a woman's face and knocking her over hitting some woman upside the head or some other kid outside had not that's not happening at least there's some sort of tact with them I mean listen if you're gonna be a cult be a gentle cult right but us because we're not saying that folks that believe what they believe or that their their doctrine by and large is heresy so we can say that about Mormonism we can say that about your host witnesses that we can say that about Islam and anything else but in terms of what we call the Christian doctrine where Jesus Christ out on the cross where he is actually God those are broke the best group that I'm speaking of and we seem to be doctrinally like what got me thinking about this some time ago we were taking a bunch of kids to California for a for youth retreat and so forth and as we're driving we're listening to music we've got gospel music playing we've got contemporary Christian music playing and one of the things that the pastor and I were talking about was how a lot of just regular just traditional gospel night when I say traditional gospel means black gospel the difference in the words that are being sung versus let's say contemporary Christian some of the words are this way vertical some are horizontal when I say vertical these are the songs that are magnifying God that are Lord you're wonderful this was was Lord I lift your name on high those sort of I exalt the those sort of songs verse as the horizontal songs where Lord I thank you for what you're done for me bless me you've been mighty good for me to meet those kind of songs and I'm not saying that one is better than the other exit take I take it back one is better than the other the songs that magnify and lift him are easily the better songs but it doesn't negate that or say that the songs that where you're talking about your pain or you being delivered that those are aren't bad songs I might send those are bad songs there is a need and there even is a historical reason for those types of songs and worship and so forth because somebody may have come out of something and you're just rejoicing in what God has done for you but if you reflect on that too much you'll start thinking about God and how he's gonna always bless you bless me give me I need I want you so I need the now becomes a song where it's about you blessing me with stuff not blessing me with you remember the Bible says that some people see that see godliness as a means for gain rather than others who might see God unless another guy this is actually what's gained and that's what's happening you can take advantage of people in that regard remember let's go back to do I have it here yeah let's go back to Genesis back to the fall and this is where this comes from remember we're talking about Satan's his plot how he does things we've covered before look what this is gonna be a highlighted text for a long time but here we have him saying indeed in verse 2 I'm sorry verse 1 indeed has God say that you should not eat from any tree of ago so did God actually say this is this something God really actually said impugning the word but then if we go to further on after the woman gives the word back what does Satan say he says you should not eat from she says after you say after she says what God says the serpent said in verse 4 you surely will not die for God knows that in the day that you eat of it your eyes will be open and you will be like God knowing good and evil notice the next portion of it though this part is also important he says when the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was a delight to the eyes and that the tree was desirable to make one wise she took from its fruit and ate so what Satan is going to do and it's the same trick that these people do is they will do two things they will twist the word obviously well it doesn't matter if you're black white Hispanic young old male or female that's going to happen they're going to be folks are going to want to twist the word before you but the way that they can do it and be successful is if it's toy if the word is twisted or bent towards a desire of yours are you with me in sales we have this thing called features versus benefits here's how features versus benefits work features is let's say now this is kind of antiquated the little example but some of you folks who are older will remember this when you're going to buy a car it used to be that cars did not come with automatic windows so you know roll them up they didn't come with the automatic locks and so forth or to raise them up and down or to heat and cool and so forth and so when they were selling cars they would say well this car has AC that way you won't and now that's the feature the benefit is so that you won't sweat while you're driving the feature is it has automatic locks the benefit is you don't have to reach all the way over and pop them up the benefit the feature is it's got this sort of steering power steering how many y'all remember cars that didn't use to have power steering the benefit of that is the features that is power steering the benefit is you ain't got to be a weightlifter to turn this dog on car so features versus benefits well anytime that you come in contact with a false teacher they have mastered it whether they realize it or not they are going to highlight the feature and then the benefit to you of this false doctrine in other words it highlights you it makes you out to be something great something special let's go to something that is stated here let's go to the scriptures let's go to 2 Timothy chapter 3 let's start in you know let's start in verse 1 now this is describing some of these false teachers and look what he says but realize this that in the last days difficult times will come for men will be lovers of self every time that you see one of these false teachers without question they love themselves more than they love others that part it even even up for dispute now the issue is is that person actually a false teacher well just look at his teaching and if he is a false teacher if he's a what I mean by a false teacher someone who is constantly teaching false doctrine and are not willing to adhere to any sort of understanding that doesn't mean that let's say we differ on let's say tongues or we differ on one safe doorway safe does that make a person a false teacher no it is that the person is also twisting other doctrine so you can be wrong over here or wrong over there and not be a false teacher even though you've taught something in errant or errant leak it's the intent behind it and what you're trying to accomplish and look what he says about these people they were their lovers of themselves lovers of money what's the offering like pay for this pay for that all these different things uh and so you'll see that hide highlighted they are boastful constantly talking about what god has done for them or what they have and so forth you think about the jessica planets of the world he's always talking about how god has blessed him he's got his chandeliers cost more than most folks houses he had 20 chandeliers in his home and so forth you see that that being highlighted you see these other preachers with their helicopters and and jets and so forth they tell you about it because god wants us to be blessed even smiling joe down in houston he wants people at lake wood to know that he's been blessed you can be blessed as well so look what he says he says they're boastful they're arrogant they are revilers what is a reviler someone who is a blasphemer someone who is not just reviler of god that goes without saying but sometimes they blaspheme other people you can blaspheme other people you can blaspheme the doctrine that blasphemy is not just of the holy spirit you can blaspheme or speak bad or speak ill intentionally about other other things other people when someone is constantly their their their main focus is to to demean others now i'm not saying that that you're demeaning the person who is speaking bad doctrine no you're demeaning the person just for sake of demeaning the person you see that disobedient to parents now we don't know their life with their with their parents or not so that'd be kind of hard to understand but if you have a close relationship you might see that with that person ungrateful unholy unloving irreconcilable meaning you can't talk with the person malicious malicious gossips leave that alone without self-control brutal haters of good treacherous when their heart just comes out you see that regular reckless no real wisdom in them whatsoever conceited about themselves all which go back the first part lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of god holding to a form of god godliness they look godly they sound godly they can open the scriptures wait a second no no no no no because it the proof is in the pudding he says although i'm so all they have denied its power avoid such a these men now when we say avoid or have denied his power here's what that means people will say that someone like myself i'm denying the power of god and let's say the folks that are casting out demons no i'm saying i am exalting the power of god because if you've got the Holy Spirit in you you don't have these demons in you people like us you know all all of you folks that are over here you you smart sheep assist you smart christians you who value the word of god who even the folks who would disagree with me disagree with me based on scripture and we can go back and forth with it and so these people who are like yourself i would say when you hear something you will say you said wait a second the word of god is enough the word of god is so much so that i don't need a sign yeah that that's the people who need a sign those are the ones who deny his power those are the ones thank you that one beats i appreciate that matter of fact also let me go ahead and vl ii or vl2 i'm not sure uh there's a difference between a false teacher and a false prophet or incorrect interpretation of scriptures we have to be careful who you're right you are right which what i said earlier there are some folks that might get something wrong we all get we all get something wrong we all teach something wrong but the false teacher the false prophet when we use that title that label that's indicative of who they are right lebron james he's a basketball player that's who he is we don't know him for anything else joe biden he's the president well we know him from other things but right now he's the president that's who he is are you with me um gates bill gates he's mr microsoft that's who we know him for windows all right so teaching something wrong doesn't make you a false teacher or false prophet no so you have to actually write on that and child young cat thank you all so as well for the super chat so he's telling us about them but now he's gonna tell tell us about what they do look what he says avoid such men as these now that's your warning that is your warning avoid the avoid these men what he says for among them are those who enter into household and take captive weak women weighed down with sin led on by various impulses ladies i'm sorry no i'm not no i'm not because i didn't write it i did not write it so i don't have to apologize for how he's describing a lot of these ladies that have been carried away can we just tell the truth shaming devil now there are different tactics that the enemy will use towards men and towards women women can be impulsive it can be a bit emotional okay and so when the enemy comes at at a woman he comes at her in a different fashion now he does commit men too doesn't mean that men can't succumb because they can't well how does he deal with men how does he commit men well he's going to affect our um frustrations angry at life and so forth or our ego because who they are who who don't think they are talking about me like that do do you know does he know who i am and so the enemy knows how to listen he the enemy knows how to deal with men just like he knows how to deal with women the devil has been the devil longer than you've been you so he's got he's got a better angle on how to deal with people just think about this now guys i want you to understand something you're not the first person that he's come in contact with you're not the only one like you there's been millions of folks just like you and he's dealt with them be they male or female black white Hispanic young old wealthy rich what have you in this hemisphere or that hemisphere he's been dealing with folks like us for the longest even those that are truly safe now do we think that all of these people are truly safe no obviously they're not all safe do we think that any of them are safe i think that i think that's what them are as a matter of fact how many of us in the chat can say you know what i was i was there i was just like them i'll i'll never forget my wife and i coming home from church from church come in put the key in the in the lock open the door and what is the first thing what's the first thing you do when you come into the house especially if it's in the evening you're gonna flip something on well the out not the outlet but the light switch is right by the door so hit the light switch nothing and what why do we do this thing anyway we turn the light switch on and nothing comes on what do we do what's the second thing we do after we hit the light switch it doesn't come on we hit it again like it's broke keep flipping what's wrong well what happened didn't pay the bill though garner i thought i had enough time well why didn't you have the money to pay it cori got paid well see what had happened was this prophetess had came into the church and wanted us to sow a seed for god to bless us and so that's what i did i you know you have to give give and it shall be given till you press down shaking together and running over yeah i was i was i spoke in tongues and everything and nothing did you know what i found out i found out this i found out the light company the gas company the mortgage company the the car company they don't care about your tongues nope could care less about it they could care less about you being slain in spirit matter of fact they don't even care about Matthew mark lucar john they they really don't who knew who knew that the vision that i saw of god working in my life they didn't see that either who knew now these guys they'll tell you that they'll tell you that you got a blessing coming because that's how they want to speak to you and again going back to these ladies they will speak to your hurts they will speak to your the pain the things that you've gone through they'll speak to that and they'll use words ladies that you can kind of ride with you'll see this off as a matter of fact we're going to show some examples in just a second but he says these weak women weighed down with sin led on by various impulses that he says always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth just as janice and jambers opposed moses so these men also oppose the truth they oppose the truth you go to them and you give them truth and they they're going to oppose you it'd be different if they were listening and still disagree but they don't in many cases they don't even want to hear it they don't want to hear it now he says but they will not make further progress for their father will be obvious to all that it's all believers just as janice and jambers finally was also and so now i want to i want to point something else out is it verse what verses is i want to go to do i want to go to that verse tonight you know what yeah i do i do i do put up another scripture he says but evil men and imposters will proceed from bad to worse and look what he says about these people that they are deceived and being deceived you both in the same category whether you are the one that's deceiving or the one that is deceived you're still in the category of a deceived person and then what you're doing is the the bad part is for some of these guys they're also doing it to other people now when you go and look at all of these these ministers that we highlight we call out go and look who is in the audience you talk about the demon slayers go and look who's supposedly having these demons cast out the overwhelming majority the majority of these people are minorities black hispanic some asians women over and over and over and over and over and over and over again that is what's happening now the reason is because the reason why it's happening just like the same amount of folks who are falling out and falling over people and so forth these happen to be people who are minorities and and and saying women also that puts us in the same category some new cameras i don't have enough faith because we're not reading our bible by the way let let me just throw some stats out of these these are for christians these stats are for christians not the world but people who profess to be christians one in ten one in ten christians profess christians one in ten have have not read any of the bible someone says no Daniel Adams go go and go and look at Daniel Adams videos most of them are not listen if the the majority of white folks you're going to find in Daniel Adams videos are going to be white women black men black women Hispanics that's what you're going to see all the time not all the time but the majority of time yes well one in ten people one in ten christians profess christians have not read any of the bible i would hope these are brand new christians i would hope these are brand new christians or christians who came to know christ on some far off island and they don't have a book they were stranded and someone dropped herself i don't know i don't know how that happens i don't know how that happens but this was a research while 13 have read a few sentences or verses in the bible 13 can you see where the problem comes in guys 30 say they have read several passages of story so 30 13 so now we're at just under half of christians have read more than a few passages there is a reason why i think i think that pastors should get some form of education you you don't have to be do they have to go to seminary no you don't have to go to seminary no but you should have some sort of education even if it's self-paced and i don't mean by going to the local bishop on the corner by going to the to the to the local prophet or apostle and letting them lay hands on you and call it no no i mean that you ought to be able to rightly divide the word this is what paul is asking and demanding as a matter of fact of preachers that's what he's telling timothy when we said uh not being ashamed being able to rightly divide paul is speaking to preachers he's speaking to timothy and how he is ought to he's he's to be planning these churches with these men he says lay don't lay hold of someone who's not faithful he says uh don't want don't lay hold of anyone too quickly and make sure that these are faithful men faithful out in the word but unfortunately we got a lot of men who just they've got the ability to speak but not the ability to teach and then a lot of our churches especially let me get uh afro-american here for a second a lot of us and not you know what not even say not not even afro-american let me get black for a second because this also goes to those in the Caribbean this goes to those in africa we tend to major on homiletics we tend to be more in tune with how we deliver something you'll notice the the voice inflection will come down and speak we'll slow down a little bit we'll speed up a little bit we'll throw occasional hmm and on and so forth to make us seem relatable we'll get loud we'll get excited and animated because i need you to feel what i'm feeling not necessarily what i'm feeling but what i want you to feel i need you to feel it in other words it's almost like acting it out in front of the mic we're good at that one of the things that bothered me my former pastor actually my last two pastors were both um affiliated with Dallas Theological Seminary one is on the board at Dallas Theological Seminary one of them was a professor and so making sure you study the bible and read it and be able to work through it was of utmost importance and i remember looking at one of the catalogs this was i don't know um about 16 17 years ago looking at the catalog and i noticed something at the Dallas Theological Seminary on their catalog it was how few blacks were professors there and then also i've noticed how few had gotten their uh either phd or thd that was not that you have to get it not not that you have to get it but the fact that we were just not going in that direction as though well i can read through my bible that's good enough that's good enough and so maybe i don't i don't have to what seminary is going to do is going to challenge you and make you earn what it is you're saying there's a lot of writing there's a lot of studying there's a lot of research and so forth and so that's the one good thing about seminary why because that's what life is going to do that's what the pulpit is going to do that's what your profession is going to do that's what the world's going to go and challenge your doctor they're going to they're going to challenge you they're going to challenge you to see if you are what you say you are the problem is we've got folks out there saying you don't need that you don't need that do you well when we look at some of this stuff it's clear that we absolutely do now what we also have though is we have people who are playing on people's emotion when you go back and you are we were talking about what what tim ross did at at uh he said last two pastors why are you asking why were they are you asking why were they my last two pastors is that what you're asking my sure best that's what you're asking if you're asking that well they were my last pastor because i couldn't take them i could not take them to prison with me that's why that's what they were my last two pastors couldn't couldn't take them to prison so which which i could have but the government frowns on you bringing your your friends and families and so forth because it's prison after all it's punishment anyway but recall what tim ross was saying about making it rain and jesus being a stripper and so forth i want you all to think about what not not just what he's saying but why he's saying it now before we get to what he says the imagery what what what do you see this right here the lights him dropping it which by the way no grown man no man let me can i let me let me let me get a little hood uh look here homie didn't play a drop no no no no no no no tim tim when men drop it that's saying something now ladies shouldn't be dropping it either but that is anyway but why is he doing that why is he why what is he trying to conjure up oh he's conjuring up some strip club stuff he's he he's appealing to the darker and lower side of the black community we don't make it rain on booty cheeks we don't make it rain on strippers we only reverence one stripper we only reverence one stripper and that's the one that took off glory so he he's appealing to a certain nature and what he's really doing is he's making the people in the audience feel comfortable now i won't do it but if you go back no it you're right you're absolutely right who is that on that nag you're absolutely right this dude this is where uh uh white folks his band folks this is where a bunch of us will get together and we you know that word that that inward would come out looking at this this this fool or this foolishness i shouldn't call my fool this foolishness like what what what in the word do we just see and to equate jesus to a stripper we we got a problem we have a problem but if you go back look at the video especially when they show the people in the audience dancing and so forth go back and look at the people who are in the audience dancing go back and watch them go back and watch when these people the ones that we call out go back and watch their the audiences go back and look and i'm talking about even at a church where it's not even predominantly black go back and look who's there there is that that there's the problem and then they want to use the negative vernacular of this this this subculture this underculture to make a point and tim ross uh he's not the first one to do that or use that that that sort of imagery and words there at transformation church because the pastor there has used words that bring up a negative a negative connotation to make a point here the host lord a hostess okay here we go dumb dumb cheetos matter of fact i need everything come put some of it down here on the floor because oh donuts and so you use this stuff to to kind of shock some people and make okay i feel comfortable okay i i i yeah he said the host love the hostess or whatever you say it he's trying to appeal to somebody you'll tear down the scriptures all the while you're trying to appeal to someone's desire because every time we're talking about something we're trying to deal with somebody getting something or being something better and so forth so we're gonna appeal to their desires how does how does james describe sin starting off it starts off with a thought and desire it kind of marinates in the brain and then uh when you think about it then sin is conceived and it becomes sin you think about something long enough you're gonna want to do it you're gonna want to get away with it i would not recommend thinking about cheating very often no don't do that even think i'll never get away with it don't think about her or him too often because you're gonna think about her and him in different ways you shouldn't well it's not no no harm no facts i i'll never be able to get away get away with it do you think about what would it look like if i got away with it how could i do that don't think about robbing a bank don't think don't think about cussing your boss out don't think about hitting somebody who you don't like after a while the thought you marinated it becomes part of your heart you start noticing videos where someone is acting foolishly and you think well i could do the same thing too i i'd have given peace my next you know you're punching out your boss that's how sin works and so you put these images in people's mind it comes back up well we see this stuff here we we play on the imagery that's already in some of these folks and make them think it's okay you are you are dealing with their desires and and how do you do so you have to bring down the value of the scriptures you have to as a matter of fact let's just go go into what what the bible says we've covered before let's go ahead and cover it again the bible says that in the last days after we says preach the word why because the time will endure they will not endure sound doctrine but wanting to have their ears tickled they will accumulate for themselves teachers in according to their own what their own desires their own desires their own desires do you think that the teachers that that that they are accumulating do you think they know these folks are coming to hear their desires being spoken of yes they are as a matter of fact that's why you see this kind of stuff right here the only thing you will have to do is sweating over how you're going to spend the overflow decree and abundance of finances is being released into the view and that we like that we like to decree and declare we only decree and declare positive stuff we only decree and and declare the good stuff we only prophesy or hear prophecy about the good in our lives remember what Jeremiah is saying about these false prophets they only want to give you good prophecy Jeremiah said no no no the land that you're being vanquished to get your feet up get comfortable plant a garden get you might as well go on and get married because you're going to be there for a while you are going to suffer but then these false prophecies no no no no no no no no no we're going to get good stuff God is going to bless us God is going to bless us yeah and I appreciate you brother see I've got different things going on right there when someone talks about the cults in a good way I'm there but back to this they never prophesy about the bad stuff they never tell you listen um you got eight hours to live get your house in order no no God is going to bless you um we're going to release the goodness the good stuff in your life that that's what's going to happen and so they will accumulate for themselves false teachers who are going to tell them what they want to hear and in doing so they will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to miss but what are we supposed to do be sober and all things endure hardship do the work of an evangelist fulfill your ministry so notice he says endure hardship why would why would Paul tell us that's on his death bed why would he tell us to endure hardship because hardship is coming the bible does tell us that those that desire to live in Christ you will suffer persecution and if you've gone thus far without that having much persecution well amen praise god but don't think it's not going to come it may come now to the same degree as everyone else no no no being a christian in afghanistan being a christian in in libya being a christian in iran being a christian in northern nigeria is a lot different than being a christian in texas than being a christian in florida or arkansas alabama it's almost as bad as being a christian in in san francisco uh and in in boston in certain parts of new york city yeah it's almost as bad as i'm i'm kidding i'm kidding but it's getting bad to be it's getting harder and harder to be a christian it'd be one thing we had to deal with that but we have to deal with this over here too this foolishness and so again we've got people that want to tell you about how great it's going to be and how they are going to be the implement they're going to be the vessel whereby this greatness comes to you and so again we're gonna listen we've seen this particular clip before and as we're looking at this clip look at the people in the audience they're either darker in terms of their hue their skin or they got more hair than me where everybody has more hair than me but they've got longer hair they've got makeup and and they've done stuff to their eyebrows that god didn't want to do and all the kind of stuff like that they got earrings and all that kind of stuff but notice the audience calling him adam he must discover that there is an eve inside of him i will not tell him so adam is created but god is talking to two people so god has created a problem within adam because adam is already pregnant with eve but adam is not aware when god is naming him is not saying i have given you somebody god said i am making a male and female but i when i heard that i'm making a male and female i just what i'm making adam male and female and the audience is eating it they love this stuff because when you hear foolishness and you don't know any better what have you ever been asked a question i know the answer this question guys i know the answer this question have you ever been asked a question you have no idea what the answer is i don't know why how am i gonna answer this this question but you've given the impression that you know your stuff and someone asks a question it's like i hope this question is a rhetorical question that way if it's rhetorical they can answer the question and i can just nod my head i can just nod my head and just amen brother amen so have you had that happen before you someone just says something i don't know what they're going to say someone please throw me a lifeline someone answer this question and they do it that's what's happening here he he's saying some stuff and they haven't read their scripture so what are they amen that that sounds good to me i'm calling him adam he must discover that there is an eve inside of him by the way i'm thoroughly disappointed in the number of bald men there that don't know the scripture that just it's just me i i noticed that also i noticed the color of their skin i noticed their hair the the ladies and so forth and i'm noticing these bald head brothers that are just not doing their job i'm going to start a class on biblical bald boys yep that's biblical bald brothers what do biblical bald brothers i i need to start that channel asap i will not tell him this is to check if he heard me when i was planning to create teams i came to prophesy to somebody well they really want to hear that they i came to prophesy to me you remember the channels that were talking about how uh this coin was going to take off and it's going to be this great wealth transfer between august and september of last year never happened but you would go to the channel you look in the chat and all of these folks prophesy about me next prophesy about me next prophesy to me why it's never coming true i don't care if it's not coming true i don't care i just need some good words spoken over me as a matter of fact as a matter of fact uh miss clothe miss clio i couldn't find her i couldn't find these psychic so let me go to church and find and that's that's what's happening here let me answer this question someone asked made a statement says cori that verse in reality is talking about those who want to hear the bad stuff which one you said you have it backwards brother they want to hear about sin in order to get justification for their own works of the law uh which scripture do i have backwards i've read a couple so i'm gonna need you and by the way i don't have a problem with you because it's not a big deal you you typically look for something that i've said negatively which is fine which is fine listen don't mind i don't mind you hold me um a feet to the fire keeping me accountable um now i can't recall the last time you were i'm kidding i'm about to say something crazy anyway i'm i'm playing i'm playing i'm playing but uh tell me where which scripture are you talking about i'll just i'll cover it again um what was the last one are you are you talking about second timothy four two let's go back to it let's see let's see if i've gotten it wrong i think was that the last one yeah it is because it's the last one i have a let's go back to it he says preach the word be ready in season out of season reprove rebuke exhort with all long suffering why for the time will come when they uh with great patience for the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine so he's telling them what he's telling them what to do and then he goes in verse three why they should do so for the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine but wanting to have their ears tickled with um they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires and will turn their ears away from the truth how in the world did you get that i messed up i'm literally by the way do you know what paul is saying to to timothy in this this this really the entire book really really honestly in first timothy and second timothy this is his theme about having sound doctrine about staying away from certain people and about the people that he's going to shepherd or have other folks shepherd where where i'm sorry where i think your desire to find me wrong on something that's found you wrong on this i what he is literally telling them he's telling them to give to teach sound doctrine to preach the word he says to reprove which is to reprove them of any facts they have wrong listen you got it wrong over here here's what it is re rebuke meaning the stern correction uh and almost in a chastising way reprove rebuke exhort do it kind of encouraging with all long suffering he's talking no he's not no he's not no he's talking about folks no he's not talking follow the context of what paul who is paul talking to you and with all due respect because just thinking about in my head sometimes the interactions in the chat you are a candidate for for some of these people because you're not using actual harmony you're not you're not keeping things in context who paul's letter to timothy is mainly about what now we can glean from it but the primary applications is for those it's a pastoral letter so he's talking to timothy as well as titus later on but he's talking to them about pastoring where do we find the qualifications of a pastor his letter to timothy is in first timothy so this is all kind of in a course with how you should govern yourself as a pastor and holding people's feet to the fire the biblical doctrinal fire are you with me that's what's happening here we're talking about sound doctrine we see that also rising up in titus and so here he's talking about people who will turn away from sound doctrine he's telling them to keep strong with the word he brings up some people namely alexander who opposed his message paul is clearly speaking about doctrine i i'm i'm failing to understand your desire your desire to say something um has caused you to miss what the text is actually saying i apologize for that i apologize for that but no i didn't get that wrong i don't i don't think i did maybe you all can help me out if you all agree but back to mr lovy that you are about to experience the overflow of joy anyone who tells you adam named animals he lied to you adam never named a single animal the bible says the opposite he says that when god sent animals to adam he watched to see what he will call them not what he would name them so god was measuring the prophetic ability what should have happened was everybody in the bible in the church when he said that adam if anyone says that adam named the animals they're lying you should have been you should have been in the bible you should wait a second wait a second i think i see what you're saying you sound you sound like you know what you're talking about but then i look at the scriptures you don't know what you're talking about on something so basic you missed it but he's trying to bring out the prophetic in adam no he's not no he's not no he's not but again he's appealing to their desires features versus benefits he's appealing to their desires now this isn't just with a predominantly black church either you'll see this in a place like bethel excuse bethel i saw this sometime ago they're doing baptisms now listen when you have bad doctrine it shows up even your baptism and again look who's up saying something and it's just awful what what this lady's getting ready to say and what the church is getting ready to clap for is just ridiculous and tell us why you're being baptized tonight hi i'm crystal and i just know that god is calling me to be a warrior for his animal kingdom and that i'm to lead angels of art an army of angels to protect animals across the world and i just know i can't do it without god come on give crystal a round of applause no don't give a round applause for anything that was just it's funny it's funny and it's sad sad and funny and they're just they're they're they're clapping they're they're eating it up they're eating it up the bible says that we cover this other day uh your word have i treasured or hidden in my heart this word here means to kind of keep the guard to make it valuable in my heart that i may not sin against you keeping the word in proper perspective keeps you from doing goofy things and saying goofy things like that and why was there not someone there to say wait a second sweetheart we need to talk we're not about to baptize you in anything the last thing we want to do is to have someone going out with the moniker or the name of our church out there saying silly things like that one of the things that i was taught as i was a younger minister when you get up before the church the pastor did not want to ever have to come back and to explain anything sorry but but but brother corey said so and so and i gotta fix that he didn't want to have to do that plus if you had to that's embarrassing that would be extremely embarrassing for you to get it that so wrong you would get it so wrong that someone or the pastor will come back behind you and say hey no he was wrong he wrong he's wrong uh no so bad no one i don't i don't think i don't think anyone under see here's here's the problem though uh i don't know if you're male or female so i don't know friend when you say something in the full spectrum of the people and and you're not getting support maybe it is you maybe it is you if there's a there's an old saying um from mob there's an old saying in gambling uh establishments if you can't identify the mark it's because you're the mark if you can't identify if no one else is riding with you that is because you're off by yourself if you think it's everybody else and not you the no issue you that's just how it works and so you're sitting there thinking that i matter of fact i've never seen anyone i didn't think that that second Timothy four two was that difficult for it and i've never heard anyone else who said it i didn't think i said anything that was that profound i really didn't people have been saying the same thing about this particular passage for the longest but it's okay it's okay it's okay um i might be wrong and the other 400 500 folks in the chat might be wrong too and the folks going white we might all be wrong don't think so again dealing with the text of the passage but listen it's good though it's good i will give you this though you're doing a whole lot better you're doing a whole lot better than the other people there at least you're actually looking at the scriptures at least you're actually looking at the scriptures so you weren't expecting to apologize you okay well listen you could you could impugn me you can listen i've had my character impugned a lot so you can impugn me if i find wrong that i'm wrong i'll apologize if i see you around if i hear from you but this passage has not changed in my mind in 30 years so when i first read the doggone thing when i when i first got safe and read this passage that was my my champion my rallying call for evangelism it's not really about evangelism but it but it is uh to do your work as an evangelist and so that was one of the first passes out that i gleaned on to um in 1991 91 yeah and so hadn't changed but again if you if you want to send me um if you want to send me a a a you know an email and say here's how i ought to see it i'm more than willing to see it i'm i'm more than open to seeing it so but back to this there go because these folks have a goal their goal is not obviously nothing godly their goal is to want make merchandise off you make them some money the bible says that in in their greed they will exploit you with false words they says they're judging from long ago is not idle and their destruction is not asleep meaning don't worry about the fact that they have not um been punished that they're still up the bible is clear that we're gonna see these men and don't think that because they're up or they seem to be successful he says that their punishment is not idle their punishment is not idle it's going to happen it's going to occur but he's letting you know their motives their motives is to exploit you to make merchandise of you to buy this sell this to become this to give here give there be careful about the person who lifts themselves up more than anybody else and they do it subtly they do it subtly be careful with the person who wants to give you a title or wants you to give them a title who goes by an actual title yeah the person wants to be a possible so-and-so my my stand is leave that person as quickly as possible the bishop so-and-so now if they're part of an actual organization where they actually in the organization they actually have bishops that's different because of their function in that in that capacity but you got one church and your bishop so-and-so no no profit so-and-so no no don't do that you don't you don't see the men in the bible going around touting how much of a prophet or apostle they are now by the way an apostle in the old i mean in the in the scriptures the apostle is someone who didn't look at that as a badge of honor are you with me the apostle is someone who looked at that as almost as a as a slave someone who is having to work for someone else it was it was it was a menial designation today it's something that should be esteemed remember Paul and Barnum as they were thought of highly by the people and they said this must be one of the gods this is Zeus this is Hermes they call Paul Hermes because he was the one that was doing most of speaking and they what do they do they heard that they didn't say oh thank you i appreciate the kind words no they tore their clothes beat their chances hey guys don't do that we're just me we're just like you don't do that don't do that but today you got me and who want to be something special who want to be idolized who want you to look at them versus someone else who think that they belong here can i can i just tell you this there are people who see themselves as some sort of leader some sort of champion some incorrectly they know good and weather got any symptom and there are those that who think that got a symptom doesn't really matter you can figure this out real quickly you can figure this out real quickly someone says hold let's let's let's deal with this let's deal with i knew this was coming talk uh oh talk about white christianity well listen friend i do i do but is there ever possibility what we could ever talk about something that's affecting um blacks and Hispanics other minorities women is that is that okay is it okay if let's say when we're talking about crime and so forth and and what it's doing with the black community is it ever okay to do that just to focus on that for just just just for a moment typically it's someone who is who is uh black or some some minority who is bothered by the truth and they you know no no let's go something else no we're not we're not going to something else so we cover white folks we cover brown folks black folks we cover old folks we cover we cover old fools and young fools how about that we cover the white ones and black ones today though i'm just making an observation at the fact that when you look at these even when the white charlatans are up the benny hens when you look at the um Todd whites when you look at the copelands of the world and then you pan to their audiences a lot of women a lot of minorities Daniel Adams south of ours look the audience the point is though and this is this this does go across lines because we don't spend a lot of time on different race issues or the dividers and so forth but it's just something that we needed and because there are a lot of folks who just don't take time to think you know what we can be so emotional let me just say this because this is where now i'm not seeing a lot of black people and when i talk about black folks or his banning folks or women it's only because i feel like we can do better than what we have been doing but how many of you black folks ever heard someone say to you you think you white why because you you talk white huh i'm speaking english you grew up in america where we speak english you how do you i'm 47 years old do you haven't mastered english yet so when i use it correctly i'm speaking no no no no don't because it's an insult that white means correct and black means or his banning means incorrect no no how how come if an hispanic person speaks with good english that's not speaking white how come an asian person speaks with good english that's not speaking white but with a black yeah let's stop that let's hold ourselves to the same high stand by high bar that's all that's all that's why i want to see us more and more delve into the word i want us to focus on the word whereas when you see these other folks what they do is they focus on themselves and they do it subtly they do it subtly to give to their ministries be a part of their ministry to lift them up by the way guys by the way be careful uh about the itinerant preacher uh music exploration kc listen excellent point excellent point you had a whole gym jones killed a whole lot of colorful today happy did he not a lot a lot because you play on someone's emotional baggage of their past and it makes them feel like you are that they're listening to you you you get me so you know that that is that is without question a uh an excellent point but here's how you can know the the leader the person that's leading i said this to a gentleman before um older guy white guy by the way named george who wanted who wanted to go into ministry he wanted to lead he wanted to pastor and so forth and i said i said i said amen jsk y g68 that is a hard name that is a hard um handle you have to write just follow jesus what does my shirt say uh whatever god said whatever god said that's what we say whatever god matter of fact it's part it's appropriate whatever god said but i said that george i said and i'm saying george no one else will know who george is unless he's listening now i don't know george might still be in prison he might still be in prison i said george i said if you want to be a leader you don't have to force it you don't have to force yourself to be a leader you don't have to force folks to follow you just just give the word of god in whatever capacity you'll know you're a leader by doing one thing by just looking back and seeing who's following you if folks are following you then you're a leader now you'll know what kind of a leader you are by what kind of people to follow just look back the kind of people that are following you tells you the kind of leader that you are if your people have no doctrine and you are a no doctrine leader you you are an unsound, unethical leader if you have loving thoughtful people who are following you then that might indicate that you are a loving thoughtful leader if you have well-rounded disciplined people that are following then that means that that speaks the kind of leader you are if you have a bunch of angry loudmouth people following you that speaks what kind of leader you are if you got a lot of violent people following you that's what kind of leader you are if you got a lot of biblically illiterate ignorant people that are following you that's because the kind of leader that you are that's how it is guys that's how it is and so all you got to do is do what he said go with my shirt again whatever god said it it's that simple guys whether you're leading or you're following that's it right there whatever god says what verses that acts 529 make sure yeah acts 529 that's it if you do that now i can promise you this though your friends your circle your followers won't be as large now does that mean that there are no large gatherings a large body of followers of christ there absolutely are but you won't be competitive with the transformation churches of the world you won't be competitive with the potter's houses of the world that's td jakeson's church you won't be competitive with the lakewood churches of the world that's joel osti you won't be competitive with them you won't be competitive with the saddleback back churches of the world. That's formally Rick Warren. No, no, but you'll gain an appreciation in heaven. And so guys, and in this case, particularly, this is one of the few times that I am actually that I am focusing on one particular group or not really one particular group is a lot of folks in taining that whole idea, that title of a minority. We don't have to let someone tell us that we shouldn't aspire for or towards the higher things in Christ that we can we can read just as well as anyone else. And we can be hope we can hold ourselves to that. And then watch us get blessed and rewarded by God in doing so. What does Christian mean? Just someone who's following Christ. And it is a moniker that is in the Bible. Peter said, don't let anyone look down on you because you're Christian first Peter chapter four. And so we are Christians for a good reason. Because what he is is how we hope to hope to be how we hope to live who we hope to follow. We are Christians should be following Christ. Technically, it doesn't really mean follower of Christ, but it really just means of Christ, like Christ, which entails necessarily entails or means that we are following behind. We are disciples of him. Jeff, you mean the book? We can do that. Send me an email. Send me an email. And also, particularly, which one? Never will we be extinct. Never will be. Listen, we like, we like roaches in the light. You don't see us. You might not see us, but we're there. You might not see us, but we're there. You might see all the other little bugs running around, but we're there. I'm not equating Christians to roaches. Let me take that back. I'm not equating us to roaches. No, 1689. And quit changing your name, by the way. I wish you quit changing your name. That's why your email keeps getting lost. Keep changing. I'm kidding. I'll try to look for it. I'll try to look for that, for that email or just put it in the comment section. Put it in the comment section. That's the best, the better way. So put it again. Guys, as Paul says, lean to sound. Do not listen to unsound. Follow the word. If you're not quite sure how you should read your Bible, how your hermeneutics should be formed and so forth, can I, can I give a shameless plug that in two days from now or every Saturday come to the Bible study? How to order merchandise, eat them with the smart Christian stuff. It'd be kind of difficult right now because it's not, it's not for sale right now. It's not for sale right now, but it will be. The reason is guys, one, because I want to make sure everything is right, but two, when I said that we will offer this stuff to help support people receiving Bibles and study material, if we started selling it, when we could have started selling it, let's say months ago, then that would just be money that's just sitting there. And I don't want to just, I'm not just trying to just make money. Okay. So that's the reason why. That's the reason why, but real soon, real soon, we had a snafu on something, had to make, had to change something. And so that's the reason why they're not, they're not sure yet, but you'll see. Matter of fact, when they come out, you're going to see some other changes like, okay, I'm not going to tell you about it. I won't even, there won't be an intro or just, there it is. There it is. So anyway, guys, I love you so much. Thank you for your time. And I look forward to seeing you guys, by the way, by the way, remember I told you, there's going to be a, just a dumping of doctrinal stuff and teaching stuff, you know, the boring stuff. There's going to be a whole bunch of that. Thank you, Nicholas. I appreciate that. Thank you for the super chat. There's going to be a whole bunch of doctrinal stuff, the stuff that might get 40 views or 500 views. There's going to be a whole bunch of that. That way there'll be a catalog for if someone wants to look up, what about this? What about that? What about this? What about that? What about this? We can have those answered. And I'm also working on different guests coming on as well. And so you all will see those people relatively, there's, I won't tell you who I'm working on, but hopefully they'll be here pretty soon. When is the, the debate with Dr. Ormone, say they'll always say it's supposed to be in June, I believe. I've got to, I've got to hit up Marlon to make sure I believe it's in June. So all right guys. No, this is Jay Mack, John McCartney. No, it's not. No, it's not. Lamar Jones one. Thank you for the super chat. Anyway, guys, I love you so much. I will see you all on tomorrow. Be blessed.
