**Overview**

Create an annotated outline for your research paper based on your
**Research Paper: Topic Assignment**. The outline is intended to support your final research paper and may use words, phrases, or sentences that incorporate the elements mentioned in assignment instructions.

An annotated outline is basically an outline with additional explanatory information and citations. Here is a sample:

I.
**The Pattern of Sin in scripture. All scripture quotations are from the**
**_New_** _International Version_ and are in
**bold blue font**.

A. New Testament: “
**For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world**” (1 John 2:16).

B. Old Testament: “
**When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it”** (Gen 3:6).

II.
**Comparison**

A. Lust of the flesh (New Testament); Eve saw that the fruit was good for food.

B. Lust of the eyes (New Testament); Eve saw that the fruit was pleasing to the eye.

C. Pride of life (New Testament); Eve saw that the fruit was also desirable for gaining wisdom.

III.
**Applied to the temptation of Christ** (Luke 4:1-13)

A. Satan appealed to the "lust of the flesh" — food.

a. Satan’s temptation: “
**If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread”** (vs 3).

b. Jesus’ reply: "
**Man does not live on bread alone" (vs.4). Matthew elaborates: "…but on every word that comes from the mouth of God"** (Matt 4:4).

B. Satan appealed to the "lust of the eyes"—Kingdoms of the world.

a. Satan’s temptation:
**The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours**” (vss 5-7).

b. Jesus’ reply: "
**Worship the Lord your God and serve him only" (** vs 8).

C. Satan appealed to the "pride of life"—a dare to jump.

a. Satan’s temptation:
**The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone’**” (vss 9-11).

b. Jesus’ reply:
**Do not put the Lord your God to the test** (vs 12).

In part one, we examined the first
two factors. From my experience in working with
couples that often go into making
a great marriage, a world class gold
medal marriage with the capacity and focus,
goal orientation. Now in part two,
let's look at the next three factors. The third factor I want to address with you is time. Anyone who's great
at what they do, and I don't care if
you're an athlete, or a performer, or a
musician, an artist. But certainly this is
true, in marriage, you have to invest time to what it
is you're doing. Time is the indefinite
continued progress of existence and
events in the past, present, and
future to plan or arrange when something should happen or be done. That sounds
intentional to me. In Galatian 69,
Paul said, what, Let us not lose heart in doing good for
in due time. We will reap if we
don't grow weary. Time in today's
culture and society that's fast paced. Push button,
instant everything is a precious commodity. I know it is. To
me, I'm busy. I'm sure you're busy, and I'm sure
the couples we work with are very busy. So time is a
precious thing, and how we allocate it
and how we invest it says a lot about what the priorities
in our life are. It's also true
for a marriage, and let me say this, Great marriages
don't happen in a vacuum, they just don't. Couples who are great and healthy take the
time to be a couple. They take the time to be together,
talk together. It's always
amazing to me and maybe I'm going
to pick on the guys a little bit more. It's always amazing to me. Some of my guy friends
growing up, you know, they met the woman
of their dreams and oh my goodness,
they'll talk about, hey, I spent 3 hours
talking to so and so on the phone I walked around all day with
her while she shopped, carrying her coat
and her purse. And they loved it, they couldn't get
enough of it. Right after the de it's like the
wife is saying, could I have 10
minutes of your time? You know, where were the three hour
conversations we had when we
were dating? Men are great pursuers. Once we catch
what we're after, sometimes we have
to be diligent to continue to pursue
Ecclesiastics. 31 Solomon said there's
an appointed time for everything and
there's a time for every event
under the heaven. So let me say
this. No shortcuts to having a
great marriage. There's no shortcuts to having a healthy marriage. It takes the
investment of time. I'm Italian, which means I like olives.
Among other things. I learned this about
olive growers. Olive growers, when they plant their trees for
the very first time, they will intentionally
pick off the buds early in spring
so it won't go to fruit or flower for
the first seven years. Now if I'm an
olive grower, I got to produce olives
and sell olives to sustain and pay my bills.
Then I want olives. And the sooner,
the better. Imagine for a minute, if you invested in
this business, that this is how you
make your livelihood for the first seven years you're investing
just time. Why do they do that? Because they want
all the growth and all the health to go into the
root system, into the stock of
that olive tree. Because they know in the arid desert regions where olives tend to grow, where there's a
lot of drought and a lot of disease
promotion, they need a
healthy tree that will produce for
them for decades. They're willing to
invest the time for the future results that they might get as
an olive grower. I think it's a
great metaphor. Alan Redpath, who
wrote a book on the life of David called The Making of
a Man of God. He said this in the
preface of his book, which is an
interesting comment. He said, the salvation of a soul is the
miracle of a moment, but the making of a St. is the task of a lifetime. In other words, God can do something in a moment to bring something
into life, but to in essence, give it substance
takes a lifetime. Well, I can take
that principle that Alan Redpath shared in his book, Into Marriage. I could say the miracle
of the moment is the introduction as husband and
wife at the altar. Is the walking
down the aisle is the kiss after, uh, a preacher
does the vows. That's sort of the
miracle of the moment. Wow. A marriage was just created here in front of God in these witnesses. But the making
of a marriage, the making of a marriage is the task of a lifetime. There's nothing
miraculous about walking down an aisle. It doesn't automatically produce a great marriage. Marriages may be
blessed in heaven, but they're often forged right here on the Earth. And so we have to
talk with couples. How are you taking this
precious commodity of time and investing it
into your relationship? The fourth factor I
want to talk about is Perseverance, or long suffering
perseverance is defined this way. Steadfastness in
doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving
success. Tenacity determination and staying power marriages today in the
culture we live in, need a sense of tenacity, staying
power determination, because there are so
many things that push against the
health and well being of a marriage. If you're familiar with the website
Ashley Madison, this is a website
designed for married couples on how
to have an affair. And hundreds, if
not thousands, if not tens of thousands of people have
access that website. There are all kinds
of things that come against the health and well being of a marriage. Again, every marriage, the longer two people walk together,
life is such. We live in a fallen
world, a broken world. Tragedy happens. Grief and loss happens. Sinful choices are made. No couple is necessarily immune from the
storms of life. Are they? The sun shines on the good
and the evil. If you look at
Matthew seven, when Jesus is talking
about a wise man building on the
solid rock, foolish man building
on the sand. And when the storms come, obviously the house that's built on rock survives. And the one built on
the sand doesn't. As I'm reading
that, I understand the connotation
of rock and sand, hearing what
God has to say, and actually
implementing it, which is a lesson
in all of itself. But I'm also
reminded of this. The storm came
against both houses. There's no
guarantee, because a couple says we have
a Christian marriage, or we both have a
faith or a trust in God that we're going to be immune from the
storms of life. Every couple is going to be challenged and
have to learn how to push through and persevere some of
the hardships that just come with living
on this side eternity. Paul said this in
a Philippians 310. He says that he's
talking about knowing God in the power of
his resurrection, the fellowship of
his suffering. And I'm glad he says not that I've
already obtained it. I like that now
if God can use Paul to write most of the New Testament
and he says, hey, I'm not there
yet then relax. It's okay that our
couples can say, hey, I've been at this
for a while, I'm still working it out. But I like this
even though he says he's not
become perfect. He says, I do
press onward. I do press onward to the higher calling of Christ Jesus in my life. It's that pressing
onward ability in couples that often help produce stable and
healthy marriages. Success is falling down seven times and
getting up eight. And so every couple is going to fall down
from time to time. Maybe individually
as a spouse, maybe collectively
as a couple. They may scrape
their knees, they may be in some pain. There may be some
discouragement. They may want to give up. They may not want to push on, but they
need to do that. I don't really have
time to go into it, but part of my own story, again, I'm Italian, right? Ten children is
a great start. I come from a big family and in the
Italian culture, if someone comes over to your house
more than once, they're a cousin, it doesn't matter
where they're from. Right. So when
I got married, I wanted to have
lots of kids. My wife had four
miscarriages. Three times she went into full labor and
delivered a dead baby. And I know you what
you may, and I have a great story
and testimony. We're adoptive parents. We have wonderful
identical twin sons who are Marines, you know, now
in their '30s. But I say that because
we had to persevere. I didn't sign up for that when I walked
down the aisle. I did not know that, I
did not know God was going to cause us to have to journey
there, but he did. And every couple will have its own story that they might have to
persevere through. Maybe just what they're
coming to you in the counseling office is the story that they have to persevere through. So you're going to have
to deal with that. Then the fifth element I want to talk about
is consistency. Some of the
greatest musicians, athletes,
performers, artists, leaders that I know
of are some of the most consistent
people I've ever met. In other words, they never allow themselves to say, I've arrived, I'm done. I can stop continuing
to pursue that, which I'm pursuing,
they never do that. A lot of people
look, for example, at Michael Jordan
and say he was one of the
most consistently, great free throw shooters in the history of the NBA. I think his career
average was in the '90s. And you would say,
well, you know, he was just a pretty
talented guy. No, what a lot of people didn't
realize is that often after practice ended and everyone else
hit the showers, he would stay and stand on the free throw
line and just continue to practice
free throws. Why? So in the game time, he could be consistent. Consistency is
defined as this, unwavering adherence to
the same principles, course of action, or form. Unwavering adherence. I like that
conformity with previous attitudes,
behavior, and practice. In other words, what you
see is what you get. There's a sense
of authenticity. I'm consistently here,
you have to couples. Let me actually
back up for a. Let me make this point by looking at first
Corinthians 15 58. Paul says, therefore,
be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the
work of the Lord. We have to help,
not to sometimes be abounding occasionally,
but always. We have to be ready in season and
out of season. As Paul told his
son in the faith, Timothy, that takes
some discipline. It takes some commitment
to the goal and why a couple is continuing to sustain and work
on their marriage. Paul said, I've
finished the course, I've run the race,
I've kept the faith. And yesterday's
excellence, if we're not consistent, becomes today's mediocrity and tomorrow's failure. What worked for a
couple yesterday, they have to keep
employing it tomorrow and the next
day and the next day. So it's important that we help them see
that marriage, love and passion is like fire. Think about
it for a minute. The nature of fire
is to go out. If you think
about love and passion as fire,
that's great, right? But the nature of fire
is to self extinguish. If you're
familiar with how they fight these vast, big wildfires out west, they'll often take a
jump team, a fire team, and land them ahead of
the approaching fire, and they actually
set another fire. It's called a backfire. That's where we
get the phrase, fighting fire with fire. Because when the main fire gets up to what's
been burnt, there's nothing
left to consume, at least in
theory, the fire will self extinguish. Same thing in a marriage. I talk with
couples and say you have to
consistently put wood on your own
marital fire because it's not anyone else's responsibility, no one else walk down
the aisle with you. The marriage is
yours, you own it. Be consistent,
Keep putting wood on your marital fire. If you don't, then that love and
that passion and everything you had when you fell in love and were courting each
other and got engaged on your honeymoon, it may die down, it may dissipate, it may even self
extinguish. And so I talk to
couples again about the importance
of building the fire, sustaining the fire,
and tending the fire. Those three
factors, again, right time, perseverance, and consistency
go right along with the capacity and the need to set
goals in a marriage. Those are the first
five. And in part three, we're going to wrap up
the last two factors.

preface of his book, which is an
interesting comment. He said, the salvation of a soul is the
miracle of a moment, but the making of a St. is the task of a lifetime. In other words, God can do something in a moment to bring something
into life, but to in essence, give it substance
takes a lifetime. Well, I can take
that principle that Alan Redpath shared in his book, Into Marriage. I could say the miracle
of the moment is the introduction as husband and
wife at the altar. Is the walking
down the aisle is the kiss after, uh, a preacher
does the vows. That's sort of the
miracle of the moment. Wow. A marriage was just created here in front of God in these witnesses. But the making
of a marriage, the making of a marriage is the task of a lifetime. There's nothing
miraculous about walking down an aisle. It doesn't automatically produce a great marriage. Marriages may be
blessed in heaven, but they're often forged right here on the Earth. And so we have to
talk with couples. How are you taking this
precious commodity of time and investing it
into your relationship? The fourth factor I
want to talk about is Perseverance, or long suffering
perseverance is defined this way. Steadfastness in
doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving
success. Tenacity determination and staying power marriages today in the
culture we live in, need a sense of tenacity, staying
power determination, because there are so
many things that push against the
health and well being of a marriage. If you're familiar with the website
Ashley Madison, this is a website
designed for married couples on how
to have an affair. And hundreds, if
not thousands, if not tens of thousands of people have
access that website. There are all kinds
of things that come against the health and well being of a marriage. Again, every marriage, the longer two people walk together,
life is such. We live in a fallen
world, a broken world. Tragedy happens. Grief and loss happens. Sinful choices are made. No couple is necessarily immune from the
storms of life. Are they? The sun shines on the good
and the evil. If you look at
Matthew seven, when Jesus is talking
about a wise man building on the
solid rock, foolish man building
on the sand. And when the storms come, obviously the house that's built on rock survives. And the one built on
the sand doesn't. As I'm reading
that, I understand the connotation
of rock and sand, hearing what
God has to say, and actually
implementing it, which is a lesson
in all of itself. But I'm also
reminded of this. The storm came
against both houses. There's no
guarantee, because a couple says we have
a Christian marriage, or we both have a
faith or a trust in God that we're going to be immune from the
storms of life. Every couple is going to be challenged and
have to learn how to push through and persevere some of
the hardships that just come with living
on this side eternity. Paul said this in
a Philippians 310. He says that he's
talking about knowing God in the power of
his resurrection, the fellowship of
his suffering. And I'm glad he says not that I've
already obtained it. I like that now
if God can use Paul to write most of the New Testament
and he says, hey, I'm not there
yet then relax. It's okay that our
couples can say, hey, I've been at this
for a while, I'm still working it out. But I like this
even though he says he's not
become perfect. He says, I do
press onward. I do press onward to the higher calling of Christ Jesus in my life. It's that pressing
onward ability in couples that often help produce stable and
healthy marriages. Success is falling down seven times and
getting up eight. And so every couple is going to fall down
from time to time. Maybe individually
as a spouse, maybe collectively
as a couple. They may scrape
their knees, they may be in some pain. There may be some
discouragement. They may want to give up. They may not want to push on, but they
need to do that. I don't really have
time to go into it, but part of my own story, again, I'm Italian, right? Ten children is
a great start. I come from a big family and in the
Italian culture, if someone comes over to your house
more than once, they're a cousin, it doesn't matter
where they're from. Right. So when
I got married, I wanted to have
lots of kids. My wife had four
miscarriages. Three times she went into full labor and
delivered a dead baby. And I know you what
you may, and I have a great story
and testimony. We're adoptive parents. We have wonderful
identical twin sons who are Marines, you know, now
in their '30s. But I say that because
we had to persevere. I didn't sign up for that when I walked
down the aisle. I did not know that, I
did not know God was going to cause us to have to journey
there, but he did. And every couple will have its own story that they might have to
persevere through. Maybe just what they're
coming to you in the counseling office is the story that they have to persevere through. So you're going to have
to deal with that. Then the fifth element I want to talk about
is consistency. Some of the
greatest musicians, athletes,
performers, artists, leaders that I know
of are some of the most consistent
people I've ever met. In other words, they never allow themselves to say, I've arrived, I'm done. I can stop continuing
to pursue that, which I'm pursuing,
they never do that. A lot of people
look, for example, at Michael Jordan
and say he was one of the
most consistently, great free throw shooters in the history of the NBA. I think his career
average was in the '90s. And you would say,
well, you know, he was just a pretty
talented guy. No, what a lot of people didn't
realize is that often after practice ended and everyone else
hit the showers, he would stay and stand on the free throw
line and just continue to practice
free throws. Why? So in the game time, he could be consistent. Consistency is
defined as this, unwavering adherence to
the same principles, course of action, or form. Unwavering adherence. I like that
conformity with previous attitudes,
behavior, and practice. In other words, what you
see is what you get. There's a sense
of authenticity. I'm consistently here,
you have to couples. Let me actually
back up for a. Let me make this point by looking at first
Corinthians 15 58. Paul says, therefore,
be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the
work of the Lord. We have to help,
not to sometimes be abounding occasionally,
but always. We have to be ready in season and
out of season. As Paul told his
son in the faith, Timothy, that takes
some discipline. It takes some commitment
to the goal and why a couple is continuing to sustain and work
on their marriage. Paul said, I've
finished the course, I've run the race,
I've kept the faith. And yesterday's
excellence, if we're not consistent, becomes today's mediocrity and tomorrow's failure. What worked for a
couple yesterday, they have to keep
employing it tomorrow and the next
day and the next day. So it's important that we help them see
that marriage, love and passion is like fire. Think about
it for a minute. The nature of fire
is to go out. If you think
about love and passion as fire,
that's great, right? But the nature of fire
is to self extinguish. If you're
familiar with how they fight these vast, big wildfires out west, they'll often take a
jump team, a fire team, and land them ahead of
the approaching fire, and they actually
set another fire. It's called a backfire. That's where we
get the phrase, fighting fire with fire. Because when the main fire gets up to what's
been burnt, there's nothing
left to consume, at least in
theory, the fire will self extinguish. Same thing in a marriage. I talk with
couples and say you have to
consistently put wood on your own
marital fire because it's not anyone else's responsibility, no one else walk down
the aisle with you. The marriage is
yours, you own it. Be consistent,
Keep putting wood on your marital fire. If you don't, then that love and
that passion and everything you had when you fell in love and were courting each
other and got engaged on your honeymoon, it may die down, it may dissipate, it may even self
extinguish. And so I talk to
couples again about the importance
of building the fire, sustaining the fire,
and tending the fire. Those three
factors, again, right time, perseverance, and consistency
go right along with the capacity and the need to set
goals in a marriage. Those are the first
five. And in part three, we're going to wrap up
the last two factors.

**Research Paper: Annotated Outline Assignment Instructions**

**Overview**

Create an annotated outline for your research paper based on your
**Research Paper: Topic Assignment**. The outline is intended to support your final research paper and may use words, phrases, or sentences that incorporate the elements mentioned in assignment instructions.

An annotated outline is basically an outline with additional explanatory information and citations. Here is a sample:

I.
**The Pattern of Sin in scripture. All scripture quotations are from the**
**_New_** _International Version_ and are in
**bold blue font**.

A. New Testament: “
**For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world**” (1 John 2:16).

B. Old Testament: “
**When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it”** (Gen 3:6).

II.
**Comparison**

A. Lust of the flesh (New Testament); Eve saw that the fruit was good for food.

B. Lust of the eyes (New Testament); Eve saw that the fruit was pleasing to the eye.

C. Pride of life (New Testament); Eve saw that the fruit was also desirable for gaining wisdom.

III.
**Applied to the temptation of Christ** (Luke 4:1-13)

A. Satan appealed to the "lust of the flesh" — food.

a. Satan’s temptation: “
**If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread”** (vs 3).

b. Jesus’ reply: "
**Man does not live on bread alone" (vs.4). Matthew elaborates: "…but on every word that comes from the mouth of God"** (Matt 4:4).

B. Satan appealed to the "lust of the eyes"—Kingdoms of the world.

a. Satan’s temptation:
**The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours**” (vss 5-7).

b. Jesus’ reply: "
**Worship the Lord your God and serve him only" (** vs 8).

C. Satan appealed to the "pride of life"—a dare to jump.

a. Satan’s temptation:
**The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone’**” (vss 9-11).

b. Jesus’ reply:
**Do not put the Lord your God to the test** (vs 12).

**## Watch-AMarriageTwoDieForpart2Transcript.txt**

In part one, we examined the first
two factors. From my experience in working with
couples that often go into making
a great marriage, a world class gold
medal marriage with the capacity and focus,
goal orientation. Now in part two,
let's look at the next three factors. The third factor I want to address with you is time. Anyone who's great
at what they do, and I don't care if
you're an athlete, or a performer, or a
musician, an artist. But certainly this is
true, in marriage, you have to invest time to what it
is you're doing. Time is the indefinite
continued progress of existence and
events in the past, present, and
future to plan or arrange when something should happen or be done. That sounds
intentional to me. In Galatian 69,
Paul said, what, Let us not lose heart in doing good for
in due time. We will reap if we
don't grow weary. Time in today's
culture and society that's fast paced. Push button,
instant everything is a precious commodity. I know it is. To
me, I'm busy. I'm sure you're busy, and I'm sure
the couples we work with are very busy. So time is a
precious thing, and how we allocate it
and how we invest it says a lot about what the priorities
in our life are. It's also true
for a marriage, and let me say this, Great marriages
don't happen in a vacuum, they just don't. Couples who are great and healthy take the
time to be a couple. They take the time to be together,
talk together. It's always
amazing to me and maybe I'm going
to pick on the guys a little bit more. It's always amazing to me. Some of my guy friends
growing up, you know, they met the woman
of their dreams and oh my goodness,
they'll talk about, hey, I spent 3 hours
talking to so and so on the phone I walked around all day with
her while she shopped, carrying her coat
and her purse. And they loved it, they couldn't get
enough of it. Right after the de it's like the
wife is saying, could I have 10
minutes of your time? You know, where were the three hour
conversations we had when we
were dating? Men are great pursuers. Once we catch
what we're after, sometimes we have
to be diligent to continue to pursue
Ecclesiastics. 31 Solomon said there's
an appointed time for everything and
there's a time for every event
under the heaven. So let me say
this. No shortcuts to having a
great marriage. There's no shortcuts to having a healthy marriage. It takes the
investment of time. I'm Italian, which means I like olives.
Among other things. I learned this about
olive growers. Olive growers, when they plant their trees for
the very first time, they will intentionally
pick off the buds early in spring
so it won't go to fruit or flower for
the first seven years. Now if I'm an
olive grower, I got to produce olives
and sell olives to sustain and pay my bills.
Then I want olives. And the sooner,
the better. Imagine for a minute, if you invested in
this business, that this is how you
make your livelihood for the first seven years you're investing
just time. Why do they do that? Because they want
all the growth and all the health to go into the
root system, into the stock of
that olive tree. Because they know in the arid desert regions where olives tend to grow, where there's a
lot of drought and a lot of disease
promotion, they need a
healthy tree that will produce for
them for decades. They're willing to
invest the time for the future results that they might get as
an olive grower. I think it's a
great metaphor. Alan Redpath, who
wrote a book on the life of David called The Making of
a Man of God. He said this in the
preface of his book, which is an
interesting comment. He said, the salvation of a soul is the
miracle of a moment, but the making of a St. is the task of a lifetime. In other words, God can do something in a moment to bring something
into life, but to in essence, give it substance
takes a lifetime. Well, I can take
that principle that Alan Redpath shared in his book, Into Marriage. I could say the miracle
