00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:09.880
Hey, I'm bad with something for
you. Oh yeah, you to think

2
00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:13.880
about. I know some of you
gonna be offended, but hey, that's

3
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:21.280
you. I have nothing to do
with it. Titles have become your idols.

4
00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:29.800
Now you know I'm telling the truth
about it. Titles have become of

5
00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:40.840
your idols. And for you who
call yourself Christians, you know you're not

6
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:46.320
supposed to have no idols, but
many of you have made these titles.

7
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:58.159
That's your God, you worship your
title. Oh yeah, it's true.

8
00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:07.719
Some people will get totally offended if
you don't call them by that title.

9
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:19.760
Doctor. It's crazy, it's insane, but it is absolutely true, totally

10
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:33.439
offended because you've made that title your
idol. You're obsessed with people seeing all

11
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:45.200
these different acronyms beside your name.
That's your That's what gives you fuel.

12
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:53.079
It makes your day for people to
see these titles behind your name, especially

13
00:01:53.799 --> 00:02:04.599
people who are in the ministry.
Many of you have honorary degrees, and

14
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:08.479
you wear those degrees as if you
earn them. I think it's shameful.

15
00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:14.560
I don't even think there should be
such a thing, especially hard as I

16
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:23.360
worked for minds for all of my
degrees. If they're handing people honorary degrees.

17
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:28.680
I think it's shameful. I wouldn't
even let anyone give me something like

18
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:31.520
that. If you want to give
me an award, that's one thing.

19
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:38.560
But an honorary doctorate, nah,
I couldn't accept that because I know I

20
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:44.159
didn't do anything to earn it.
Do you know what it takes to get

21
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:49.759
a doctorate? Do you know how
much money you spend to get a doctorate?

22
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:58.039
A lot, a lot. So
for people to take that title and

23
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:04.879
act as if they are all of
this and that when they didn't earn it

24
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:14.840
at all. No, if it
was according to the things that people have

25
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:21.360
done, that should be just an
award. This shouldn't be an honorary doctorate

26
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:35.360
or any degree. People are so
caught up in titles that they've lost focus,

27
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:42.000
especially those in the ministry. They've
lost focus, they have lost their

28
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:47.840
connection because some people started out with
good intentions, but then they realize that

29
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:54.000
it's a business, they realize that
they can gain notoriety, they realize it's

30
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:59.879
a money maker, a money maker, and so they lost focus. And

31
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:11.719
now it's about what people call them, doctor, apostle, bishop, prophetess.

32
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:23.199
It's all about the titles. The
real is no focus, no true

33
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:36.199
focused on God because they're too busy
making their titles. They're idols. They

34
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:45.040
are so caught up in who they
want people to see them as. Yet

35
00:04:46.480 --> 00:05:00.319
they're not even living a life,
not at all. So many people are

36
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:10.560
absolutely walking straight into the pits of
hell because they've made their titles their idols.

37
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:23.360
They are worshiping their titles. People
are so caught up in this that

38
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:32.959
they're willing to buy them offline.
You buying a title, really really,

39
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:39.600
but many people are buying them online. I know people you I mean,

40
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:46.240
come on, you can tell that
to a stranger, but to someone who

41
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.120
know you know, don't gone well, you haven't went to no school to

42
00:05:49.160 --> 00:06:00.519
get a doctorate or any other degree
as far as that goes. But people

43
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:14.000
just they really really really it's a
sad thing, it really is. You

44
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:30.120
have people who have purchased license for
nursing, being m D, medical doctors,

45
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:43.560
I mean all kinds of titles because
people think, oh, you have

46
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.920
to be this, you have to
be that. Just caught up in it,

47
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:55.959
totally caught up in it. And
I think it's a terrible thing because

48
00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:03.040
a lot of people want these titles
but they can't even walk in the position.

49
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:12.240
They don't know how to handle themselves
in the position. There are a

50
00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:15.560
lot of people, there are a
lot of people who are not even good

51
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:27.240
in the position, but they have
to have that title, and they think

52
00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:40.920
that title is what gets them over
and through. I'm really, really,

53
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:46.959
really think it's sad because it's a
very prevalent thing these days and times.

54
00:07:51.240 --> 00:08:01.199
People have made their titles their idols. They're more caught up and oh look

55
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:11.839
at me, I'm this, I'm
that, But they're not focused on doing

56
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:16.600
the right thing. You got the
title, what you're gonna do with it?

57
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:22.639
Especially in the ministry. You got
the title, but you don't have

58
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:37.879
any power. You're not leading people
to Christ, you know. But that's

59
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:43.039
the way of the world. That
is the way of the world. People

60
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:50.559
think that's what's most important. You
know. Oh yeah, you know.

61
00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:56.440
You see it like I see it. We all see it. We all

62
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:09.480
see what's taking place. People have
become individuals who idolize those worldly things.

63
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:20.279
And you know what, society treats
you different if they think you are a

64
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:26.559
person who have some notoriety, if
they see you as a person who have

65
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:31.039
notoriety, if they know for sure
you're a person with notoriety. They'll follow

66
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:39.159
you don't know you think you're really
who you say you are, and you

67
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:43.600
so far from it, but they
don't know it because they're following you because

68
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:52.200
of your title, your position.
All I can do is just really shake

69
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:58.519
my head because so many people are
fool because individuals show you who they want

70
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:07.679
you to see, but that's not
who they really are. I think mainly

71
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:18.159
I'm making this episode for people who
know they have not earned the title.

72
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:26.039
You didn't earn the title, you
didn't earn a degree, especially people in

73
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:35.000
ministry. I'm really really talking about
them because more than anyone, because many

74
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:41.519
professed Christ and Jesus didn't walk around
saying I'm this, I'm that, and

75
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:46.240
I mean, he was the worker
of miracles, he was the everything,

76
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:52.879
but he didn't walk around with his
chest poked out saying I'm this, I'm

77
00:10:52.960 --> 00:11:01.440
that. He just did what he
did. But for people, that's what

78
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:09.120
they're caught up in, wanting others
to see who they are, what titles

79
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:16.120
they hold, how big their houses
is, the car they're driving. Because

80
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:20.440
people are caught up in things like
that, it means a lot to some

81
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:31.200
individuals It make people feel good about
themselves to know that people are looking at

82
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:37.000
them because they carry a certain title, or they are in a certain position

83
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:43.879
or have certain status. It makes
them stick their chests out. Some people

84
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:54.200
even become pompous because society put them
up on pedestals, So people, you

85
00:11:54.279 --> 00:12:07.600
know, walking around pompous, full
of ego. It's nuts. Especially when

86
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:13.080
I sometimes see a bunch of people
in ministry the way they carry themselves,

87
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:20.440
I just I almost laugh. Sometimes
it's because it's comical, it really is,

88
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:33.759
because you don't That's not how Jesus
represented himself to people or presented himself.

89
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:48.600
You know, it's just sad and
unnecessary really, because that title is

90
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:54.039
not going to get you any further
than where you are now. Especially for

91
00:12:54.159 --> 00:13:00.360
people who are professing Christ. That
title is not going to get you anywhere

92
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:11.519
because God already know is fake.
And then for those who have true degrees,

93
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:20.200
it don't matter. God is not
looking at your degree at all.

94
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:24.600
He don't care if you got five
doctorates. They don't care. They're not

95
00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:33.480
gonna get you into heaven or keep
you out of hell. That's just how

96
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:43.360
it is. But unfortunately, as
I said, because of people in their

97
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:52.000
mindsets. This is the way of
the world. It really is. It

98
00:13:52.120 --> 00:14:00.559
is the way of the world.
And everybody, well not everybody, but

99
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:13.200
many people are jumping on the bandwagon. Many people. You meet a group

100
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:18.600
of them and all of them got
the same title. But they think that's

101
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:24.360
it, you know, because for
people that are in ministry, they love

102
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:33.399
having that form, like the Bible
say, they love love, love,

103
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:43.679
love, love love having that form
of godliness, but denying its power,

104
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:54.879
pretending to belong to Jesus when they
really belong to the adversary, the devil.

105
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:09.759
It's awful. It's awful, awful, awful because it is only showing

106
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:13.679
who you really are when you're so
caught up in titles and positions and things

107
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:18.399
of that nature. It shows who
you really are. It shows who your

108
00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:26.879
character is. It really does.
It shows who and what you are about.

109
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:35.720
It truly, truly does. When
I meet people who carry themselves like

110
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:43.600
that, I just kind of chuckled
to myself because instantly I know what you're

111
00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:54.480
about. I know, But you
know, you can only let people be

112
00:15:54.679 --> 00:16:02.240
who they are. That's all that
is what makes a person happy. So

113
00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:07.440
be it, So be it.
If you are an individual who is so

114
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:18.080
impressed with people with titles. So
be it, so be it. But

115
00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:22.919
all I can tell you is there's
something wrong with them and you. But

116
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:30.399
that comes from inside internally. Most
people haven't dealt with who they really are

117
00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:41.919
because they're too busy faking and pretending
to be something they are not, so

118
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:52.360
called up in the worldly ways and
the worldly things. Your title, your

119
00:16:52.399 --> 00:17:02.759
possessions, your money, none of
it, none of it, your degrees,

120
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:10.640
none of it means anything to God. He already told us, do

121
00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:18.440
not store your treasures up here on
earth, as old as that. But

122
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:26.920
people still making it matter, They're
still making it matter to them. And

123
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:38.720
it's those who call themselves children of
God or saints of God that irritates me

124
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:44.880
the most because you're speaking it from
your lips, but your hearts are far

125
00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:49.519
from Him. And that's biblical,
that scripture, and it's the truth.

126
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:56.960
So I want you to think about
it. If you have read the Bible

127
00:17:57.000 --> 00:18:03.599
at all, you know you're don't
supposed to idolize anything, nothing or no

128
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:11.720
one. When you do, you
have to go back, go back and

129
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:18.039
get what you really need in order
to start on this journey with the Lord.

130
00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:26.039
And if you don't choose Jesus,
you need to go back and allow

131
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:33.759
yourself to heal from whatever is to
have you in the mindset that you're in

132
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:45.200
thinking that woo woo woo, the
world is your oyster because of your titles,

133
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:51.839
positions, money, and blah blah
blah. You need to look inwards

134
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:59.160
because you have some unresolved there that
have you in that mindset feeling you must

135
00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:04.240
do this. You must do that
in order to be recognized or validated or

136
00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:14.720
whatever it is. And again this
is not to poke at anybody in particular.

137
00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:21.200
I just hope you understand what I'm
saying. That's all. I just

138
00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:26.119
hope you understand what I'm saying and
get something out of it. But that's

139
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:33.319
all I'm gonna say. I'm gonna
leave it right there, not another word

140
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:37.359
on it. Thank you for listening. Much love to each and every one

141
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:42.640
of you. You know I appreciate
you coming. If it's your first time,

142
00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:49.720
thank you, Please come again and
also check out my other episodes.

Think on it
