It's called "Notes
to a Redeemer".

00:00:05.910 --> 00:00:09.990 align:middle line:84%
"Tell them the kingdom of God
exists only in one's heart.

00:00:09.990 --> 00:00:14.010 align:middle line:84%
If they don't believe you,
switch the water for wine.

00:00:14.010 --> 00:00:15.900 align:middle line:84%
Tell them the laws
of the kingdom

00:00:15.900 --> 00:00:19.260 align:middle line:84%
is to return cruelty
with kindness.

00:00:19.260 --> 00:00:24.300 align:middle line:84%
If they look incredulous, walk
across a shallow fish pond.

00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:26.520 align:middle line:84%
Tell them that
every silver bream

00:00:26.520 --> 00:00:28.950 align:middle line:90%
is a coin within the kingdom.

00:00:28.950 --> 00:00:33.600 align:middle line:84%
If they shake their heads,
dispel the nearest demon.

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:37.770 align:middle line:84%
Tell them a poor man will first
find the gates of the kingdom.

00:00:37.770 --> 00:00:43.080 align:middle line:84%
If they begin to whisper, lift
a lame beggar to his feet.

00:00:43.080 --> 00:00:45.600 align:middle line:84%
Tell them the kingdom
is financed by men

00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:48.180 align:middle line:90%
who seek no compensation.

00:00:48.180 --> 00:00:52.170 align:middle line:84%
If they ask how such
men live, turn two fish

00:00:52.170 --> 00:00:55.020 align:middle line:90%
into a feast for thousands.

00:00:55.020 --> 00:00:58.320 align:middle line:84%
Tell them no judges,
salesmen, or lenders

00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:00.390 align:middle line:90%
live within the kingdom.

00:01:00.390 --> 00:01:03.690 align:middle line:84%
If they start to pick up
stones, turn each stone

00:01:03.690 --> 00:01:06.480 align:middle line:90%
into a white dove.

00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:10.980 align:middle line:84%
Tell them the kingdom of God
spreads out across the Earth,

00:01:10.980 --> 00:01:13.110 align:middle line:90%
yet no one sees it.

00:01:13.110 --> 00:01:15.870 align:middle line:84%
If they call this blasphemy,
you know it's time

00:01:15.870 --> 00:01:17.930 align:middle line:90%
to raise the dead."
