Hidden Treasures, Study In the Character of God

Let's be turning in our Bibles this morning to Matthew 16, Matthew chapter 16. And while you're doing that, I just want to take a moment and give you an opportunity just as well to thank Pastor Jeff Small. Jeff, come on up real quick. You did a great job last week, Church. I want to affirm that. Thanks to all the staff. But Jeff, it was a great message. Tell everyone what happened yesterday with the Children's Ministry celebration. Yesterday, we had the opportunity with a band and a small group of kids and my wife and I to travel to three locations to do rallies with kids around the city. And we were shocked by the attendance. At 1030 out in Mount Lebanon, we had about 1,200 kids and their moms and dads. It came out. And Jay Bell from the Pittsburgh Pirates was there and gave a wonderful testimony of how much Christ meant to him. And he really gave a message to the kids that morning. It was just a wonderful time. I was totally taken aback by that and was expecting a mediocre crowd here when I got here. Every one of the seats that's up now was completely full. We had to put another hundred seats up back there. And people were standing all over this place. I just couldn't believe it. Couldn't believe it. I know. Here I am, doubting. I mean, we spent no money on advertising or anything. All we did was pray that God would. Does that cost anything? And then last night, then finally, we went out to Pittsburgh East and had another concert out there with another 500 or 600 people. And it was just a wonderful time. I mean, we just had a blast. It was a lot of fun. And I was talking with Danny from the Billy Graham Crusade, and she said something is finally happening in the spiritual realm in Pittsburgh because when we're seeing this kind of response, it means that we're breaking through spiritually. Okay. That is encouraging. All right. Well, there's many other things coming. You can read your notes. We've been telling you this stuff for two months. And I know, like men, there's a breakfast or a lunch or something May 1st, I know, for you and so on. But anyhow, great job on that too, Jeff. And there's more to come. You need to sit down. Thanks. All right. Matthew 16. Let's start in verse 13, reading together, please. Matthew 16, 13. When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, who do people say the Son of Man is? They replied, some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and still others, Jeremiah, are one of the prophets. But what about you, he asked, who do you say I am? And Simon Peter answered, you are the Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus replied, blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter. And on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. And then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ. I want to begin this morning's message with a question. Which well-known, nationally known religious leader comes to mind when I read the following biographical sketch about him? Think about it. Do you know this person? Although he was not an honor student in school by the age of 12, he had memorized the entire New Testament word for word. It was not uncommon for this leader at that early age to pray for hours on his knees, sometimes to the point of tears for the lost. By the time he was 13, he was considered a spiritual child prodigy. Anyone know who I'm talking about? David Koresh. Familiar name? I couldn't begin this week without at least mentioning something about the tragedy in Waco, Texas, because all of us have been affected by it. And I trust you're praying for the impact on the families of those concerned and, of course, on our nation. What is it about people that can enable them to start correctly and go off? What is it that caused this man some five years ago to go to this little compound of people, the Branch Davidian sect, and promise to restore them and help to rebuild the compound and the community that was falling apart, who later on insisted that he be called the Messiah? Who took to himself 19 wives from amidst the crowd of people there? What happened in the minds and hearts of those 80 or 90 people who apparently perished in a tragic fire, regardless of who was responsible for it? These were, by all accounts, not mindless, drug-crazed people, but rather intelligent in many cases, very sincere and devoted people. They were seeking for answers to life's questions. They were drawn to a person of authority. The problem was they looked in the wrong place and they followed the wrong person. Knowledge and authority, spiritually speaking, go hand in hand. What you know determines the authority that you have. That's true really in the whole secular world as well, isn't it? You've heard the phrase, information is power. But knowledge and authority go hand in hand. That's why it's said of Jesus just a little bit earlier in His ministry, at the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 7 and 28, the greatest message a man ever spoke with his lips, the people say this, when Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at His teaching because He taught as one who had authority and not as their teachers of the law. But to know God and who He really is, is absolutely critical to the application of the spiritual authority in our lives. Inaccurate knowledge means dangerous use of authority or absence of authority. And one of the most destructive things that's happening in the church in America today, one thing that greatly concerns me, is the misapplication of authority. I see two poles here, if you will. And this is the first point on your outline. The absence and abuse of authority. I see two poles. On this side of the platform over here, on my left and your right, let's talk about the absence of authority. What I see almost everywhere I go, is that the church seems powerless to affect its culture. How many of you basically understand what I'm saying right now? Even though people profess to be born again, and even though you see this and that about religion and so, basically, we are moving increasingly toward a secularized culture. The church seems to have lost its capacity to influence the culture in which we find ourselves. Os Guinness, in his very powerful book that he edited called, No God But God, says this. The American Republic, now listen carefully. Apply yourself to this. The American Republic is nearing the climax of a generation-long crisis of authority that calls into question its very character and strength. We're talking about America now. The problem is not simply out there, in such obvious problems as drugs and crime, or common explanations as the influence of family breakdown, or moral relativism, or those kinds of things, the New Age movement. Instead, listen to this. American beliefs, ideals, and traditions, civic as well as religious, are losing their compelling power to shape and restrain lives in both the private and public spheres. In other words, it's a way of saying, as was said in the Old Testament, every man is doing what is right in his own eyes. And this is becoming increasingly quantifiable. We're losing ground here. A recent study was completed that said that in 1968, here's where this generational thing comes. Those of you who are in your 50s and 60s maybe don't relate to this, but in 1968, only 9% of Americans said that they gave their children no spiritual training. In 1978, the figure was up to 17%. And in 1988, just five years ago, 26% of American adults said they gave their children no spiritual training. And so we're beginning to enter into a generation that largely does not have any exposure to the truth of God's word. I was criticized constructively for one thing we didn't do on Easter Sunday, and I accept that it is valid. We didn't read the Easter story. And someone made the comment, there were a lot of people there who've never heard it. I think that's probably true. Now on the other side of this authority issue, over here we have the church seemingly powerless to impact its culture, and I could give tons of illustrations, won't do it. On this side, we have the abuse of power and authority. On this side, we have people like David Koresh who are out there just ready to snag those people hungering for some sense, some structure, some authority. And dear ones, let's not just kind of write that off as something we'd never do. Let's understand that we spirit-filled Christians have raised up our own sort of idols as it were. We have our own sort of set of leaders. A very unhealthy thing that happened in the 70s and 80s was a few people rose to the top of the heap and everyone turned to them to get all of their input and all of their inspiration and all of their truth, and that was a big mistake. Other people are running toward political groups that have a certain measure of authority under the name of Christian activism and so on and throwing themselves into that kind of stuff. And there are some of you here today that came out of controlling kinds of fellowships. You were drawn into a place where everyone did what they were told and it was real structured and real authoritative and very abusive. And then there are some people who get into this authority kick on this side of the spectrum and they walk around and say, Well, I'm a child of God and I've got the authority of God. Everywhere they go, they're binding and casting out. When my wife goes to the mall too much to shop, I'm going to bind the spirit of the mall and cast it out of her. What is a mall spirit? I don't know. I have experienced spirits in the mall, but I've never experienced the mall spirit of the mall. By the way, I might just add here, just very quickly, I don't have time to develop it, but there are people, quite a number of people who aren't anywhere on this spectrum per se. In fact, they've kind of stepped off of it and they have removed themselves from coming under any authority, particularly spiritually speaking. And so they kind of flit around from place to place, Bible study to fellowship, church to church as they please, kind of go on where they want to go, getting what the Bible calls their ears tickled. And they've decided that they are the authority. That same thing, unfortunately, has affected some here. I pray that when someone isn't in the seat that you normally see them in, you say, I wonder where they are, I'll give them a call. We are our brother's keepers, dear ones. Now these are really serious issues, but the only source of true authority, as you're going to see in this passage, comes with the knowledge of God that is so lacking in the church today. We need a revelation of the knowledge of God. I love singing that hymn this morning. Only thou art holy. There's only one God. And I don't know how well we really do apply ourselves to knowing Him. Perfect in power and purity. How do we access that authority? Number two on your outline. How do we access it? Well, the access comes through the knowledge of God. Let's look at this text. Jesus says very plainly here. This is a critical question at a critical junction in His ministry. He walks into His whole band of disciples and says, Hey, who do the people out there say that I am? And what kind of answers did He get? Well, we can talk a lot about this. Some say John the Baptist. Some say Elijah. Others still Jeremiah. How many of you have had conversations with people who have said, I think Jesus was a pretty good person. I think He was probably as great a religious leader as ever was. Ever have a conversation with someone who says, Well, I think He's fine for you. I'm not sure that I need Him. People have all kinds of answers to that. But then the Lord Jesus looks and says, Look at verse 15. But what about you? And I want to ask you this morning, dear one. What about you? Who do you say that I am? Jesus would ask. And there is a right answer. This isn't one of those, Maybe I'll get it. Maybe I won't. There's a right answer to this. And don't you think the Lord was kind of surprised who gave the right answer? Who gave the right answer? Now, how many times did Peter say the right thing at the right time? I mean, what did he usually do? He opened mouth and inserted foot many different times. And I read this carefully. He didn't ask Peter specifically this question. So Peter popped up with the right answer at the right time. What is the answer? Read it with me. Verse 16. You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. Read it again. You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. Peter captures the essence of the knowledge of God, of who Jesus Christ is, in that one simple phrase. The Christ, the Son of the living God. I want to talk about the Christ. Can we bring up the light on the banner up there? Do we know how to do that without a lot of problem? The banner says, and it's a beautiful one, Mimi, it says, the Messiah. That's what the word Christ meant. The anointed one, the Messiah. When Peter said, you are the Christ, he is saying, you are the one that God has sent into history to redeem the lost of the world. You are the one that the prophets foretold was coming. You are the one that God has put His Holy Spirit upon. Peter was making a very clear statement that Jesus had a mission that He was fulfilling as the Christ. He was talking about His human side. And then he says, and you are the Son of the living God. That's the divine side. Church, listen. It's very important that you understand that Jesus was fully human and fully divine. That's the incarnation of God. Greatest mystery your mind will ever try to comprehend. How does it happen? How does the infinite become the finite? How does He in whom everything exists suddenly distill it all down to something you can touch? Peter says, you are the Christ, the Son of the living God, the Eternal One, the Holy One, the One who will never end, the One in whom there is no imperfections. You are the One that was from the beginning and will be long past the end of time. You are the One to whom worship is due. My own sad observation, church, is this. Some of you here, some of us in our church, understand Jesus as the Son of God, but don't really respond to Him as Messiah. This is the part that has to do with Lordship. This is the part that has to do with Savior. This is the part that has to do with Lord. Many of us are somewhat confused about who He really is in our lives. I was at a concert that Debbie Boone gave the other night, about four nights ago. Beautiful concert, wonderful spirit. Debbie stood up there and said, you know, up to age 19, she said, I was raised in a Christian home, but up until age 19, I saw Jesus as the One who held my fire insurance policy. That's all He was. I mean, I knew I needed someone for eternity, but I didn't know about daily living. And then God got a hold of me, she said, and told her story. You know what really is amazing? Some of you know that I'm talking to you today and you don't really care all that much because God's found His niche in your life and that's where He's going to stay. And I want to say categorically, church, you've got to see Him as the Christ. The Son of the Living God. And that means that there are specific demands that He makes upon every one of our lives as a church. You say, well, what does that mean to me? Well, look at Jesus. Look at verse 17. Jesus replied, say the word, blessed. Say it again. Blessed. Say it to your neighbor. Blessed. Blessed are you. Now, how many of you know that's a church word? Are you going to go to work tomorrow and have your boss say, blessed are you, Leroy? Doubt it, right? Are you blessed, Leroy? No, that's a church word. The Greek word mercurios, and we have a definition on an overhead for you, the Greek word means to be happy. How many know what that means? To be fortunate, favored, or well off. Jesus said, Peter, the fact that you knew that means that you are happy, fortunate, favored, and well off. I can get into that a little bit, right? What did He mean by that? The knowledge of God, the knowledge of knowing Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of God, means that Jesus would go back and probably say something like this. He'd say, Peter, my word tells you that because you know that, because you know who I really am, Proverbs 2.7, I'll be a shield to you. I will guard your course and I'll protect you. Proverbs 2.8, that knowledge of God will be pleasant to your soul. Proverbs 2.10, Peter, that knowledge of God will provide understanding and make life make sense. Peter, that knowledge of God will preserve your life. When you're about to fall off the cliff, that knowledge of God will spare you. Ecclesiastes 7.12, Peter, that knowledge of God on your lips will be like rare jewels when you speak. And Peter, that knowledge of God upon that rock, I will build my church. Now don't raise your hand because I don't want you to feel like you need to reveal this, but if you were raised in the Roman Catholic Church, many of our people were, you were probably taught that this next verse, when Jesus says, and I tell you that you are Peter and on this rock I will build my church, that has become the basis of papal authority. Peter was basically the first pope. He passed it on down the line and that's what you were told and that's why you were told that that Catholic Church, Roman Catholic Church, is the church. But any kind of study of the original language here very clearly reveals that Jesus wasn't saying that Peter was the rock, but rather the rock was his revelation of who God was. The declaration that you are the Christ, the Son of the Living God, that is the rock of revelation upon which the church was built. In fact, Peter himself gives it away in 1 Peter 2 verse 8 and 9. He says, Jesus is the cornerstone and we then are living stones kind of built up in this temple in whom the Holy Spirit dwells. But Peter, Jesus says, you've got to search for this knowledge. It was revealed to you by my Father in heaven. It didn't just fall in your lap in church. Can I say today, God forgive us, everyone, especially me, for how little I search for the knowledge of God. I don't seek it like a rare treasure. I don't pursue it with all my heart. One wonderful thing about just getting a little time away, away from the phones and away from the needs and away from the ministry responsibilities, you get an opportunity to get along with God. And as things would happen, I was able to one warm evening and I was out west where, I hate to tell you what it's like. Yeah. And in a warm evening, I parked the car that I had and walked up, a mountain is the wrong word, but a steep hill that protrudes back behind the Phoenix First Assembly of God Church. Nobody was there. Walked up on top of the mountain, looked out over the city and felt this breeze begin to blow. And I'm probably now mature enough to understand that the breeze was always blowing. You just sit down on the canyon floor, you couldn't feel it. You had to get up a little higher. The Holy Spirit spoke into my heart and He said, you've got to come up to feel the wind. You've got to rise out of the quagmire to feel my presence from time to time. We don't live up there, but we've got to get up there now and then, every one of us. Because it's there that we get those moments of revelation of who God is. Jesus said, when you get there, Peter, Father will reveal it to you. And then, then this knowledge of God will give you an authority unlike anything you've known. Peter says, The Lord says to Peter, on this rock, I will build my church. You see, throughout history, we have had a tendency to believe that God was going to use certain stars and certain super gifted people to be the ones upon whom He was going to build His church. Dear ones, one thing I'm convinced about, stars and charlatans like David Koresh will come and go. Media oriented ministries will proliferate. People will easily substitute other people for what only Jesus is worthy of. And God wants to invest His church, His body, with full authority. One of the things that's always perplexed me about you is how often when somebody comes to town who, quote, has a ministry, I've seen some of us wait two or three hours just to have that person pray over us. And I'm not criticizing you. I've done the same thing. Increasingly, I see, though, that what the Lord Jesus wants in 1993 is not a couple of superstars here and a couple of worldwide ministries here and a few people there that everyone looks to and says, if only that... What the Lord Jesus wants to do is raise up a church where the body of Christ is ministering to one another confident that through the Holy Spirit they can reach out and touch one another. In the fullness of life. Oh, listen. We are not far from this. But you've got to believe today that what God wants to do is through you. Put your hand on the person's arm next to you right now. Through you He wants to touch. Wake him up. Go ahead. Sorry. I mean, this is what God is after. It's for the church that He's invested this authority. This is why so clearly the Apostle Paul challenges the church at Ephesus. And this became our theme verse early in our days together when he says, It was Christ who gave some to be apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to prepare God's people for works of service so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God. There's the phrase. And become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. And Jesus says, Now Peter, in order to make that happen, I'm going to give you some keys. Keys to the kingdom of heaven. Ever wonder if Jesus reached down into a satchel and pulled out something? Like something I picture Pastor Jeff doing, you know. Some kind of big plastic key ring or something. How many of you have a key with you? How'd you get here? Did you walk? You probably have a key, right? Pull it out. Now, what is that key? Go ahead. I know. Some say, I hate it when he does this. He's telling me what to do and I'm not going to do it. You don't have to do it, all right? You can just be rebellious and that's all right. Now, looking around, this is impressive. Some of you women have 500 keys in that purse. How do you carry that thing? When I was growing up, were you like me? If I saw someone with a big ring of keys, I said, no, there's a person in charge. Like you, Ed. Yeah, you're in charge here, brother. You've got them all right there. Now, keys allow you to do two things as I see it. They allow you to go in to have access and they also, once you're in there, allow you to lock up and protect yourself from what's out there. I want to talk about both of those. Keys allow you to go on in. Jesus said, I'm going to give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. I'm going to allow you to go on in, Peter, with that authority and make things happen in the heavenly realms. And dear ones, make no mistake, when the church starts to move in authority, things happen in people's lives. Let me just read a real brief portion of a wonderful letter I got from a family who just had recently moved down to Virginia Beach. Pastor Jay, the Lord has laid it very heavily in my heart to write you this letter. I wanted you to know how in my time at North Way, the Lord has affected my family and the many blessings we've experienced. Number one, he says, my wife was saved. Number two, I quit drinking. Number three, the Lord healed my wife so she could have our beautiful baby, Nicole Marie. Number four, I was baptized in the Holy Spirit. Number five, my understanding of the Lord's ways increased tenfold. Pastor Jay, I really miss the church. I really miss hearing you preach. I like you said that right there. I miss the church. You see, it was the church moving in authority. And dear ones, there are many, many people who could give this testimony or some variation of it here today. But if we begin to really move, listen, please listen. If we begin to really move with our keys, I believe there is an enormous field of harvest out there. Just waiting for God's church to move in authority, to be strong, convinced, knowing what we're called to do, and moving in it. So important that we see the impact we could have. As I see it, in terms of opening the door of heaven for other people, we have three options. Lost people that you know. Think of someone you know right now that's lost. Maybe it's a relative, a friend. Maybe it's a work associate. You got it? You got their face? You seen it right now? You got three things you can do with them. Number one, you can ignore them and say, it's not my problem. I'm going to heaven. It's up to you. You know what? That gets tempting sometimes, doesn't it? Just as I said, forget you, Jack. I know where I'm going. Make your own bed. You lie in it. That's one thing we could do. Unfortunately, the Bible doesn't give us that option. Number two, you could say, well, someone else will reach him. I'll give more money to CBN. I'll support Billy Graham somehow. Maybe Billy will reach him. I'm not going to worry about it. But I'll give to somebody. Number three, I can use my key somehow to open the authority of heaven over their life and begin to cause things to break up so their life can be affected. You know, every time I think of the name that God gave us, opening our doors. What a profound thing that was, wasn't it? Wasn't it? Opening our doors. God's saying to us, it's time that you open up the doors. Take your kingdom keys and open them up to a lost and drifting culture that's on its way to destruction. You're saying, well, you know, my problem with this, Jay, is I don't know what my key is. Can I make a suggestion? Let's de-spiritualize that just a little bit. I just want to suggest this to you. Rather than wonder, well, what's my spiritual gift? Can I find someone to help me get my spiritual gift? Why not just do it this way? Why not think today, what thing do I like to do and I'm pretty good at? And God, what could you do with what I like to do and I'm pretty good at? What could you do to use it for your glory? And all of a sudden, if we'll see that God may just make that your key, you will be amazed at how he will take every little thing that you think is no big deal, but God's made you good at it. Some of you are so good at making other people feel welcome. Wonderful gift of hospitality. Some of you are so good at simple little things like tending a garden. We had a man out here yesterday. He might even be here today. It's Bill Torbett. Now, Bill would not want to be up here teaching. He probably wouldn't want to go out and necessarily give someone a track in the street, but he loves to garden. He loves to tend things, and he's going to be out there to the glory of God, and some of you should be joining him, beautifying what's left of this place, all right? We need to make it work. You know, the top of this would be a great flower box, I thought. You know, if we fill it all with topsoil, we could have trees. Never mind. But some of you, I mean, I could point to so many things. Some of you are really, really great with children, but you say, well, but, you know, I don't know if I could commit. Oh, you can commit to God, and you can take your key and insert it. Find what you're good at and say, God, how can I use this to your glory? Is that getting through to you? Find what you're good at. How many of you know you're good at one thing? All right. I could use so many illustrations. We have a brother here in this service. I won't embarrass him, but just received a national reward in marketing. I mean, an objective evaluation, number one in his field in the whole nation in marketing. You know what he's decided to do? He said, Lord, I'm pretty good at this. How can I help to get the message out about the gospel? I want to use my gifts to help, and don't misunderstand this, but market the church. Get the church out. Get the gospel out to people. Well, that's what we want to do. Find our key and use it to the glory of God. The other thing that keys do is to protect us, to lock out the evil one. And here, listen carefully. My heart gets a little touched in this one. Church, some of us are absent the protection of the body of Christ. We somehow think that, well, they ought to know up there that this has happened to me or this is wrong or I need this or I need that. And we don't avail ourselves of the wonderful strength that's in the body of Christ. We don't insert our kingdom key and move together. And I have to tell you, the only grief I had of last week was when I heard from Scott that, you know, we had 2,500 adults and children here on Easter Sunday morning, and less than one-tenth of them came back on Tuesday night to praise God and to worship Him. As I understood it, it was to be a great praise night, and it was a great time, but only a tenth of the people felt it was important to be back together once a month in community night, sharing our gifts and our keys. Church, we've got to get past that. If you're part of a home group, if you're part of a commitment group, if you're part of this community, when we meet, you should be here because we need the protection that comes from the body working together. What can we do? Let me end very quickly with three points of application. Number one, pursue the Lord. How do you grow in the knowledge of God? Pursue the Lord with all of your heart. You say, well, you know, Jay, that's my problem. I don't have time to do what you're talking about. Hebrews 11, 6 says, He's a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. You know, Jay, you're making me feel a little condemned because I just don't spend the time. I don't want to condemn you today. I'm sharing from my own struggle, but, you know, maybe this will help you. I read this story. It's in a writing by Lillian Gild. Here's what it says. Lillian Gild and her husband were driving along a country road when they happened to notice the late model Cadillac parked on the side of the road with its hood up. The driver appeared to be perplexed and a little agitated as the Gilds pulled over and asked if they could offer assistance. Well, the stranded driver hastily and somewhat sheepishly explained that he had been aware of the fact that when he left home he'd been a little bit low on fuel, but he had a very important business meeting that he had to get to and he decided to take a chance of making it on the little bit of fuel that he had left. All the Cadillac really needed was some gasoline. Well, fortunately, the Gilds had a spare emergency gallon of fuel and they emptied it into the thirsty Cadillac and told the driver there was a gas station just a few miles down the road. He thanked them profusely, hopped in his car, and sped off. Twelve miles or so later, the Gilds saw the same car, hood up, stranded on the side of the road. The same driver, no less bemused than the first time and considerably more agitated, was pathetically grateful when they pulled over again. You guessed it. He was in such a hurry to get to his business meeting he skipped the service station, thinking in the dim hope that he could make it to his destination a couple more miles down the road. Hard to believe, the writer says, given a person could be this stupid in that situation. Until we think, that's how many of us live our spiritual lives. Boy, did that get to my heart. Because you know what I see an awful lot of? I see a lot of thirsty hearts with their hoods up along the side of the spiritual road. Out of spiritual fuel, but in a big hurry. God help us not to try to make it without pursuing Him. Number two, pray for others. I think Jeff gave a very powerful summons last week. If you didn't get that message, pick up the tape today. A great message exhorting us, encouraging us to pray. You can even today, join in on Operation Andrew. Put your commitment out there in the fishnet that's out in the back hallway, right out by the map. You can use your communicator. But pray for someone for the next six weeks until Billy Graham gets here. Maybe God will touch them through you. In fact, I know He will over the next weeks. I could talk more. Let's go on. Number three, perceive what your key is. What
