Speaker 1: Lulujah, Good morning, Church. Let stand in prayer of the Word.
Speaker 2: Thought.
Speaker 1: We thank you for your touch on our lives. We
Speaker 1: thank you for the ministry of the Word in our midst.
Speaker 1: We welcome you to shake the ground of our hearts,
Speaker 1: shake the ground of our nation. I'll give you the
Speaker 1: praise for it in Jesus' name. Everybody said, Amen, you
Speaker 1: may be seated. I want to I want to start
Speaker 1: with some thoughts out of last week Isaiah nine six
Speaker 1: through seven. We talked about a government of peace for
Speaker 1: to us a child is born, to us as son
Speaker 1: is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.
Speaker 1: Everybody say, government on his shoulders, and he will be
Speaker 1: called wonderful counselor Mighty God, everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Speaker 1: Of the greatness of his government and peace, there will
Speaker 1: be no end. Remember, I prefer a different translation than
Speaker 1: the NIV which we have here. I prefer New American
Speaker 1: New King James ZESV some of these others King James
Speaker 1: even which says of the increase of his government of peace,
Speaker 1: there shall be no end. It's an increase, it's a progression.
Speaker 1: So yes, it's great, but it's increasing. He will reign
Speaker 1: on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing it and
Speaker 1: upholding it with justice and righteousness. So remember, well, last
Speaker 1: week we talked about he's reigning on two thrones. He's
Speaker 1: a king and a priest. Right, he's a king and
Speaker 1: a priest. He's reigning on two thrones. He's reigning on
Speaker 1: the throne of Melkezedic. That's his priestly ministry. He's reigning
Speaker 1: on the throne of David. That's his kingly ministry. So
Speaker 1: he's fulfilling both. Everybody say both with me. This morning,
Speaker 1: he will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom,
Speaker 1: establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness. From that
Speaker 1: time on and forever, the zeal of the Lord Almighty
Speaker 1: will accomplish this. The zeal of the Lord in you,
Speaker 1: the zeal of the Lord and you. It's the zeal
Speaker 1: of the Lord and you. It's not just the zeal
Speaker 1: of the Lord in some ambiguous arena. It's not just
Speaker 1: the zeal of the Lord somewhere out there in outer space.
Speaker 1: The zeal of the Lord's been loosed in you. You
Speaker 1: are the partner of God in government, not just the
Speaker 1: partner of God in churches and priestly ministry SAMN. So
Speaker 1: what we talked about last week a little bit is
Speaker 1: that God is working to bring forth a government of peace,
Speaker 1: a government that is on the shoulders of Jesus in
Speaker 1: and through the hearts of all of those who trust
Speaker 1: in Jesus.
Speaker 2: Meaning then we.
Speaker 1: All have to shoulder government, we all have to embrace government,
Speaker 1: we all have to be involved in government. And that's
Speaker 1: what made this nation great in the beginning, and in
Speaker 1: the first place, what made this nation great was the
Speaker 1: vision that the forefathers had that government would be representative
Speaker 1: of the people. So the church would carry the priestly,
Speaker 1: the government would carry the three branches. Out of Isaiah
Speaker 1: thirty three twenty two, the government would carry the judicial,
Speaker 1: the legislative, and the executive. Thank you, legislative is the law.
Speaker 1: So I want to go over. Let me read that
Speaker 1: one to you. But I don't know if you knew
Speaker 1: some of this stuff, right, but I'm supposing you probably didn't.
Speaker 1: I'm just making you happy reminding you of what you
Speaker 1: alread knew because your genius is But Isaiah thirty three
Speaker 1: twenty two, for the Lord is our judge, the Lord
Speaker 1: is our lawgiver. Or law maker. The Lord is our king,
Speaker 1: he will save us. This scripture was the inspiration of
Speaker 1: the founding fathers for the three benches of government. The
Speaker 1: Lord is no Now you got to recognize the Lord
Speaker 1: is our judge, The Lord is our lawgiver, The Lord
Speaker 1: is our king. You got to recognize. This is governments
Speaker 1: flowing out of the Lord. They understood that, they thought
Speaker 1: they had a vision of that. They discerned that a
Speaker 1: nation that would stand would have to be built on
Speaker 1: not man made laws, but built on the government that
Speaker 1: is the Lord. So even this, you know this passage.
Speaker 1: I told you last week. I tormented you. I told
Speaker 1: you last week that the government shall be upon his shoulders.
Speaker 1: The fulfillment of that means that those who are his
Speaker 1: shoulder government. It also means some other things, though, I mean,
Speaker 1: there's some other stuff that it means, and I think
Speaker 1: this is important. It means that the government will be
Speaker 1: upon his word, The government will be upon his stature,
Speaker 1: the government will be upon his character, the government will
Speaker 1: be upon his truth, The government will be upon his law,
Speaker 1: his commandments. Right, So this is this is it's interesting
Speaker 1: and it's interesting to note that the priestly ministry is
Speaker 1: also upon his stature, we're called the priestly ministry is
Speaker 1: called to grow up into the fullness of the stature.
Speaker 2: This is Ephesian chapter four.
Speaker 1: That Jesus, and you'll also notice the priestly ministry, though
Speaker 1: it belongs to him, he's the high priest. Guess what
Speaker 1: he's done. He's distributed to us. He even said in
Speaker 1: John twenty through twenty twenty through twenty two, he said
Speaker 1: he breathed on them, and he said, who's ever's sins
Speaker 1: you forgive?
Speaker 2: They are forgiven.
Speaker 1: He was releasing priestly ministry to us. The authority to
Speaker 1: represent him in bringing people to the cross and announcing
Speaker 1: their sins forgiven was given to the church the Ecclesea.
Speaker 1: And so the priestly ministry has been distributed to us,
Speaker 1: but also the kingly ministry. And he distributed the priestly ministry.
Speaker 1: And he said, I'm giving five offices to the church,
Speaker 1: and he names an apostle, prophet, pastor, teacher, evangelist.
Speaker 2: I'm testing you.
Speaker 1: Ephesians four eight through eleven. And then he says, and
Speaker 1: these offices will remain to equip the body of Christ
Speaker 1: into the word is Doma, into the word ministry. They'll
Speaker 1: equip the body of Christ into the fullness in ministry,
Speaker 1: into the fullness of the stature of the faith that
Speaker 1: belongs to the Sun. So we're growing up into the
Speaker 1: stature of Him. And this is what it is for
Speaker 1: us to carry the ministry. We shoulder the ministry of
Speaker 1: Jesus in the priestly realm. And we've done a pretty
Speaker 1: good job with that. We've done a fairly good job.
Speaker 1: The church has done a fairly good job of that.
Speaker 1: The church could do better. Could the church do better?
Speaker 1: Could you do better than the church could do better? Okay,
Speaker 1: So but we've got this and we're running after it
Speaker 1: and we want to do better.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: But we also he's trying to tell us we also
Speaker 1: shoulder government. That the government is on his shoulders. And
Speaker 1: he carries three roles, like three offices in government, like
Speaker 1: he carries five offices in the priestly ministry.
Speaker 2: He is.
Speaker 1: He carries the role of judge, he carries the role
Speaker 1: of lawgiver, he carries the role of king. This is
Speaker 1: and these also are fleshed out through us whose shoulder
Speaker 1: government with him because we've embraced it, because we aren't
Speaker 1: only representatives of him in his priestly ministry. We are
Speaker 1: representacive of Him in his kingly ministry. So Revelation one six,
Speaker 1: we are a kingdom of priests and kings. He has
Speaker 1: made us a kingdom of priests and kings, that we
Speaker 1: would not only bring heaven to earth like the dispensing
Speaker 1: of salvation and healing and righteousness, but we would also
Speaker 1: bring the government of heaven to earth with justice and
Speaker 1: righteousness and truth.
Speaker 2: We bring both.
Speaker 1: And I tormented you a little last week by saying
Speaker 1: that we as a people, we have shirked the kingly
Speaker 1: responsibility we have. We've abdicated it, We've given it away,
Speaker 1: We've let others take it, We've said we didn't want it.
Speaker 1: We didn't even recognize it as a calling over here.
Speaker 1: If I feel like I'm called to ministry, that means
Speaker 1: I'm called to preach.
Speaker 2: Whoa nellie.
Speaker 1: But if I'm called the ministry, I mean but if
Speaker 1: I'm called the government, Oh that's a bummer. I haven't
Speaker 1: even seen this as a dignified calling, a calling wherein
Speaker 1: I needed to receive an anointing, where in I'm dignified
Speaker 1: and and treated with dignity in the body of Christ.
Speaker 1: You're called the government. Oh you're called to be an attorney.
Speaker 1: You're called the law. Oh yeah, we'll talk to you later.
Speaker 1: Where's the preachers, where's the prophets? We've been all excited
Speaker 1: about the priestly side, but we haven't been excited about
Speaker 1: the kingly side. God is saying we need to wake
Speaker 1: up and be called back into and love and honor
Speaker 1: the kingly calling. Because the kingly calling is an anointed
Speaker 1: calling of Christ, just as the priestly calling. This is
Speaker 1: just as valid of a calling as the priestly calling.
Speaker 1: Anything over here to do with the priestly, any of
Speaker 1: those offices of ministry, this is just as valid, just
Speaker 1: as powerful, just as anointed, just as needful. We need
Speaker 1: to embrace this. And it means judicial, It means laws,
Speaker 1: and it means it's the third one I keep forgetting
Speaker 1: executive Brench kingly, are you hearing me? Our forefathers knew this,
Speaker 1: They knew this, They studied this when they when they
Speaker 1: came over here, they came over with prayer. They wrote
Speaker 1: up the may Mayflower Compact? Was it the may foul Compact?
Speaker 1: Help me, honey, they wrote up this Mayflower. I mean
Speaker 1: they had all this stuff right and so, and they
Speaker 1: had prayer, and they knew that the value of the
Speaker 1: laws that were resting on the word of God. So
Speaker 1: when they wrote the Constitution, when they were drafting the
Speaker 1: laws of our nation, they were mindful of the Word
Speaker 1: of God. They were thinking about the Word of God.
Speaker 1: They actually turned to and went to the civil laws
Speaker 1: of the Word of God as well as the Ten Commitments.
Speaker 1: They were looking within those laws to see, okay, because
Speaker 1: if we have these laws as the foundation of our nation,
Speaker 1: then what's going to happen is we're going to have
Speaker 1: a prospering people, and it's going to be inviting God
Speaker 1: to be present and acknowledging Him. As we do that,
Speaker 1: then God's blessing is going to be on the nation.
Speaker 1: Whether you're a believer or not, whether you have acknowledged
Speaker 1: you Jesus are not there, You're going to be under
Speaker 1: a covering of blessing because we've embraced the laws of God.
Speaker 2: This is super important.
Speaker 1: But now what we see is we see that as
Speaker 1: unrighteousness has increased, and you know, unrighteousness is not unrighteousness
Speaker 1: or the wicked. They are not a majority in the nation,
Speaker 1: but as the minority has gotten emboldened, and as they've
Speaker 1: gotten loud, and as the Church has hid its head
Speaker 1: in the auditorium, and hid its head in the sanctuary,
Speaker 1: and hid itself not in the sand, but kind of
Speaker 1: like in the sand. Right, you put your head down
Speaker 1: in the sand, and you can't see, and.
Speaker 2: You la la la la la.
Speaker 1: God is sovereign. God is sovereign, And so well, he'll
Speaker 1: just we just have more meetings here at the house.
Speaker 1: He'll just take care of all this in his sovereignty.
Speaker 1: Here's what happens. His sovereignty is meant to be fleshed
Speaker 1: out through those who walk with him. His sovereignty is
Speaker 1: fleshed out through you and me. So if you and
Speaker 1: me are not partnering with him, I do nothing unless
Speaker 1: I show the prophets. This is what the Bible says,
Speaker 1: He partners with us. Somebody else thought that it would
Speaker 1: work this way as well. Do you remember who that was?
Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember, But there was a
Speaker 1: bunch of people who were the multi inherited generations of
Speaker 1: a promise to inherit the promised land. Do you remember that?
Speaker 1: And so the time wasn't right, and it still wasn't right,
Speaker 1: and it wasn't time to go in. And one of
Speaker 1: the reasons they couldn't go in is God said through
Speaker 1: the prophets that the sin of the Amorite has not
Speaker 1: come to full maturety. And so because to go in
Speaker 1: and possess the Promised Land, they were to go in
Speaker 1: and judge the seven nations that were there. Those nations
Speaker 1: had to be judged, but their iniquity had not come
Speaker 1: to a full up yet, and so it wasn't time
Speaker 1: to go in. But there was a day when it
Speaker 1: was time to go in. There was a day when
Speaker 1: God said, all right, it's time to go in and
Speaker 1: possess the Promised Land. But there was a generation who
Speaker 1: wouldn't believe. There was a generation who where we be
Speaker 1: not able generation? There was a generation. Are you here
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I'm talking about God's sovereignty because the church.
Speaker 1: One of the faults with the Church is we've hidden
Speaker 1: our head in the sand of God, his sovereign. So
Speaker 1: He's gonna put on the president whoever he wants in there.
Speaker 1: I don't even need to vote. He's just going to
Speaker 1: take care of everything down the county city building, no
Speaker 1: matter what.
Speaker 2: I don't even need to show up. All I need
Speaker 2: to do is go to a prayer meeting. God does
Speaker 2: these things? Is this a God? I have to my head?
Speaker 2: What is this?
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm just pointing the abbreviation of a mountain mt. Hello, somebody,
Speaker 1: we haven't been partnering with God appropriately, because what happens
Speaker 1: in sovereignty is God needs us to hear what he's saying,
Speaker 1: see what he's saying, see what he's doing, and then
Speaker 1: partner with him with appropriate expression. And that isn't just
Speaker 1: expression here in the house, but it's lifting up our
Speaker 1: lives and pouring our lives into the culture, the culture
Speaker 1: we've been convinced to abandon. But this is our nation,
Speaker 1: this is our earth, This is our earth. The earth
Speaker 1: belongs to the Lord. The meek shall inherit the So
Speaker 1: thinking about God's sovereignty, we have to stop thinking God's
Speaker 1: going to do what he wants to do all by himself.
Speaker 1: That's what the Israelite people did. And so what happened
Speaker 1: is that through their unbelief and through their small thinking
Speaker 1: and seeing that the land was full of giants, God said, oh,
Speaker 1: I can't take this generation in. Well, that's confusing. Didn't
Speaker 1: you say it's time to go in. Yeah, well, didn't
Speaker 1: you say that we should go in? Yeah, well, then
Speaker 1: why don't you take us in? Because you won't believe.
Speaker 1: So you have to partner your faith with me. If
Speaker 1: you'll partner, all of you Israelites, listen to me, If
Speaker 1: you'll partner your faith with me, then we can go in.
Speaker 2: Because you already said, these.
Speaker 1: Seven nations are stronger, greaterier, and mightier than us, and
Speaker 1: they're nations of war. So you don't have the ability
Speaker 1: to go in and whoop up on them and inherit
Speaker 1: the Promised Land on your own. The only way you're
Speaker 1: going to go in and inherit the Promised Land is
Speaker 1: if you look to me in faith and then I
Speaker 1: do the whooping while you do the merchant. That's the
Speaker 1: only way it'll work. There has to be a faith expression.
Speaker 1: So so God's sovereignty crashed and burned for a full
Speaker 1: generation until that generation died.
Speaker 2: That generation had to die off.
Speaker 1: And God said, okay, I couldn't get you generation, but I.
Speaker 2: Can get your babies.
Speaker 1: So, Joshua and Caleb, I want you to have Sunday school,
Speaker 1: Monday school, Tuesday school, Thursday school, Friday school, Saturday school,
Speaker 1: and then start with Sunday School again. Let's just teach
Speaker 1: this generation faith. We're gonna teach him how to believe God.
Speaker 1: We're gonna teach him for miracles. We're gonna teach him
Speaker 1: to partner with angels. We're gonna teach him that God,
Speaker 1: who have parted the Red Sea for their parents, can
Speaker 1: do anything. And then we're gonna raise up a generation
Speaker 1: of faith. And guess what, I can partner with them
Speaker 1: because they'll partner with me by believing. And we'll go
Speaker 1: in and even though the giants look big, we'll drive
Speaker 1: them out and dispossess them.
Speaker 2: How we gonna do it.
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it with sling shots to their tuber
Speaker 1: charged by angels. We're gonna do it with arrows that
Speaker 1: release fieries, storms of hailstones. We're gonna do it with
Speaker 1: all sorts of stuff. Don't worry about that. Just walk
Speaker 1: with me and obey. Come on, let's march. This is
Speaker 1: this is we We gotta we gotta be thinking that, yes,
Speaker 1: God is sovereign, but the miracles he wants to do
Speaker 1: in the priestly ministry and in government, these miracles they
Speaker 1: have to occur as we agree with them and partner
Speaker 1: with him and put shoe leather to what he's saying
Speaker 1: and doing and actually show up. We have to show up.
Speaker 1: We can't say, well, that's not my realm. Well he's sovereign,
Speaker 1: he'll just take care of it. Well it's not happening
Speaker 1: because he doesn't want us to well, evils increasing anyway.
Speaker 1: We that's not no, no, no, no no, we're missing it.
Speaker 1: We're missing it. If that's our attitude, and we will
Speaker 1: be like that generation, God won't be able to use
Speaker 1: this appropriately and God will have to raise up a generation.
Speaker 1: He'll be trying to do something with our kids. Hello, somebody,
Speaker 1: I was gonna make a statement there about a bunch
Speaker 1: of you needed to get pregnant, but I'll just skip
Speaker 1: that one. So this is what we're seeing now, is
Speaker 1: this massive pushback. We're seeing this, and part of why
Speaker 1: we're seeing the pushback is God has released his word
Speaker 1: of a billion soul harvest. Satan's having a fit. Secondly,
Speaker 1: we're seeing a big pushback because we've been so focused
Speaker 1: on the rapture and getting out of here that we
Speaker 1: have not occupied and been after it aggressively in a
Speaker 1: warfare means.
Speaker 2: Thirdly, because of that.
Speaker 1: Also, we've been filled with hope instead of filled with faith,
Speaker 1: I mean filled with hopelessness instead of faith. And so
Speaker 1: a hopeless army Ezequiel thirty seven is a dead army.
Speaker 1: And you know, fourthly, we've been slothful, we've been prayerless,
Speaker 1: we've been self absorbed, prosperity focus, we've been everything under
Speaker 1: the sun except for being the warfare people were supposed
Speaker 1: to be. We are called to war now it you know,
Speaker 1: right now, it's happening. I mean, if we don't wake
Speaker 1: up right now, then we're gonna lose the war for
Speaker 1: a generation because satan ainate plan. That isn't that isn't
Speaker 1: a word, but I'll just use it. Satan aint planned,
Speaker 1: Satan nate plan. Now you can, you can hit your
Speaker 1: you put your head down your video games and and
Speaker 1: you can put your little head down in the sand
Speaker 1: of churchism. You can. But I'm telling you, Satan nate plan.
Speaker 1: He wants the entire earth. He wants the people of
Speaker 1: the earth. He wants your neighbors, he wants everybody, he
Speaker 1: wants your children, he wants everybody. And he ain't planned.
Speaker 1: This is a spiritual battle. This is a spiritual war.
Speaker 1: This is spiritual fighting. This is this is the real deal. So,
Speaker 1: you know, we've seen some of the stuff happening recently. Now,
Speaker 1: some of what we've seen happening recently is because Satan
Speaker 1: knows something. This is very interesting. Satan is the man
Speaker 1: of lawlessness. Satan is the spirit of lawlessness. He's the
Speaker 1: spirit of chaos and anarchy. And what he knows is
Speaker 1: that the law draws people to God. Lawlessness pushes people
Speaker 1: away from God. Lawlessness pushes people away from God. The
Speaker 1: law draws people to God.
Speaker 2: Okay, so Satan knows that.
Speaker 1: So you can see all of these things that are
Speaker 1: going on recently before COVID, during COVID, some of this
Speaker 1: was brought to light during COVID, but the decriminalizing of
Speaker 1: criminal activity, the minimizing of crime or prison times or
Speaker 1: reduction or elimination, the sorrow's fact prosecutors and the decriminalizing
Speaker 1: that they are being, that they're expressing and their state
Speaker 1: are in their governments, the left leaning governmental leaders changing
Speaker 1: the definition of felonies and crimes in their states. All
Speaker 1: of this stuff that's going on. This is Satan working
Speaker 1: to reduce the law and to expand lawlessness. Lawlessness is
Speaker 1: what he flourishes in. And the hope in the demonic
Speaker 1: mind is that lawlessness pushes people away from God, therefore
Speaker 1: circumventing the billion soul harvest. All the while, while this
Speaker 1: is happening, Christians, we're put on our thumbs or picking
Speaker 1: our nose.
Speaker 2: We're touting in church.
Speaker 1: You know, we're doing all sorts of well, I mean,
Speaker 1: at that age you can, but I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: but I mean, you know all this, But.
Speaker 2: No, we got to wake up church, Church, We got
Speaker 2: to wake.
Speaker 1: Up Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. Then then what's happening
Speaker 1: is we got this thing going on all across the nation.
Speaker 1: We got a bunch of Christian folks saying, yeah, that's right,
Speaker 1: we shouldn't have no Christian laws. We got to push them.
Speaker 1: We can't have any Bible based laws. We're going to
Speaker 1: offend people. We're going to drive people away from the
Speaker 1: Lord if we have that stuff. I mean, we're no
Speaker 1: longer a Christian nation anyway.
Speaker 2: Who do we think we are? We got to calm down.
Speaker 1: And so we got all these Christians they're like, that's
Speaker 1: Christian nationalism. We can't force that on folk. You know,
Speaker 1: we can't be doing that. Well, we've done it for
Speaker 1: over two hundred years. It's been working fine. You got
Speaker 1: to retard gene that kicked in or something. What's going on.
Speaker 1: It's been working just fine. It's been working just fine.
Speaker 1: And so and we got all these Christian consider Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't legislate morality. God's been doing it for a
Speaker 1: long time. I don't know where what planet you just
Speaker 1: arrived from. Anyway, Listen, it's not Christians legislating morality anyway.
Speaker 1: All we're doing is reading the book, and we're saying
Speaker 1: to one another, the book applies to every person. God
Speaker 1: legislates morality. God is law maker. That's Isaiah thirty three
Speaker 1: twenty two. God is lawmaker. We're smart if we just
Speaker 1: figure out what laws He's made, and then we abide
Speaker 1: by those, and we publish those one to another, and
Speaker 1: we call the violation of those one to another.
Speaker 2: When we harm one another a crime, that's a crime. Hello.
Speaker 2: Well okay, and.
Speaker 1: So we got Christians doing this, and I understand a
Speaker 1: little bit. I mean I understood. They almost sucked me in.
Speaker 1: I was getting seduced by this thing. Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1: We can't legislate morality. Yeah, yeah, we got to be careful. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we got to be kid. That's right, that's right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because we got to win heart.
Speaker 1: And if you don't win the heart, big deal, you know.
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't want just outward behavior, you know
Speaker 1: kind of a thing, and you know, we got to
Speaker 1: win the heart, you know, that kind of a thing.
Speaker 1: And so I was getting sucked into it myself. I
Speaker 1: was getting sucked into it. Then I read the Bible.
Speaker 1: The Bible sheds a lot of light on stupid ideas,
Speaker 1: and the Bible says, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: God.
Speaker 1: God gave us the law to push us toward faith.
Speaker 1: And God uses the law to drive people toward faith.
Speaker 1: And the law is actually a tutor. It's it's a disciplinarian.
Speaker 2: Actually.
Speaker 1: That actually draw because it shows all of us how
Speaker 1: miserable we are, and every one of us, our lives
Speaker 1: are measured up against the law, and then we come
Speaker 1: up short, and then we feel like a pile of poop,
Speaker 1: and then.
Speaker 2: We've got to go.
Speaker 1: This is a special sermon today, You're we got every
Speaker 1: I haven't cussed yet. Now.
Speaker 2: I don't like cussing. I don't even like that.
Speaker 1: I don't cuss at home is as bad as it gets.
Speaker 1: But we might have more of that coming in a minute.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I'm just telling you we got
Speaker 1: I got a revelation on this. I begin to get
Speaker 1: a revelation in the word is that, Oh this is
Speaker 1: Satan's up to something. And now he's getting all the
Speaker 1: Christians to agree. Yeah, you can't legislate morality, so then
Speaker 1: let's pass those Okay, Well, let's just make all drugs legal.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good idea.
Speaker 1: Let's do that like Oregon does that, Washington did that
Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. So that let's make all abortions. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: can kill your baby, let's make all that legal. We
Speaker 1: don't want to be putting nothing on nobody, and we
Speaker 1: don't want to we don't want to offend any sinners.
Speaker 1: That'd be a bad that's bad, stupid, that's stupid. This
Speaker 1: is stupid.
Speaker 2: This what this is.
Speaker 1: And part of this, part of this is believe it
Speaker 1: or not. Part of this why it's so popular in
Speaker 1: the church is because this is it's it's the secret,
Speaker 1: secret sensitive model seekre sensitive Christian church growth is that
Speaker 1: if we make people feel bad, they won't come to church,
Speaker 1: or they won't come to Jesus. We're gonna drive them
Speaker 1: away from God. And so we can't make people feel bad.
Speaker 1: We need to make people feel good. And so don't
Speaker 1: tell people that they're sinning.
Speaker 2: That's bad.
Speaker 1: Like, don't even tell anybody that they got a bad trade.
Speaker 1: Don't even do that, you know, just just love everybody,
Speaker 1: Love everybody with stupidity, a love that will not a
Speaker 1: love that will not draw them up into the royalty
Speaker 1: that they're actually called to. So we kind of bought
Speaker 1: into some of this. You hear me, we've kind of
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe you've talked that way. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't legislate morality. Well, no, all morality is actually legislated.
Speaker 1: And I got another thought for you is that when
Speaker 1: you pass some of these stupid laws, you're actually legislating
Speaker 1: Satan's morality. So whose morality are you going to legislate?
Speaker 1: Because you cannot avoid legislating morality? So are you going
Speaker 1: to legislate Satan's Are you going to legislate the lords?
Speaker 1: Here's this revelation. I got this revelation I got, you know,
Speaker 1: about the Word of God because and I want to
Speaker 1: go to Galatians are out of time we're out of time.
Speaker 1: Go to Galatians. Go to Galatians, Chapter three, verse twenty one. Pardon, Oh,
Speaker 1: I love this congregation. This is my this is my home.
Speaker 1: We got we got some fiery up people here. We
Speaker 1: got real Christians. We got real Christians at New Horizon.
Speaker 1: Now this is listen, listen, listen, what's happened. The church
Speaker 1: is afraid you'll leave. The church is afraid to tell
Speaker 1: the truth because you might get offended. The church is
Speaker 1: afraid you might get offended and not tied. Woe be
Speaker 1: it unto.
Speaker 2: You that you get upset with the preacher and not give.
Speaker 1: And so we're just going to feed you these stupid,
Speaker 1: little silly sermons that don't really.
Speaker 2: Do anything.
Speaker 1: You know, sitting here, the Lord was talking to me
Speaker 1: during worship, and he reminded me, Matthew five. He reminded
Speaker 1: me that what happens with this kind of church, and
Speaker 1: it's happening in Europe. It's happened in Europe. Europe's way
Speaker 1: ahead of us in this backsliding. And by the way,
Speaker 1: Newsom calls it progressive. Right left people call this progressive.
Speaker 1: The more back slain you get, the more progressive they
Speaker 1: call it. Oh, you're really progressive. No, you're not progressive.
Speaker 1: You're actually retreating back into Satanism. You're retreating back into
Speaker 1: being under demonic rulers.
Speaker 2: Which will soon have us.
Speaker 1: Devouring one another and soon have our nations in poverty.
Speaker 1: These nations that progress this way actually move into poverty, tribalism, witchcraft, poverty.
Speaker 1: It's coming to a nation near you. In Europe right now,
Speaker 1: they're ahead of us in progressivism. It's demonism. This isn't
Speaker 1: progressive thought. This is demonic thought. Are we got to
Speaker 1: recognize it and realize that we're in a battle, and
Speaker 1: God's calling us to the forefront of the battle, even
Speaker 1: if we're a Gideon group and even if those watching,
Speaker 1: because we know this is the word of the Lord,
Speaker 1: and so we're not afraid of a dollar not coming in.
Speaker 2: We're not going.
Speaker 1: To preach some lie so that we're afraid that somebody
Speaker 1: might leave.
Speaker 2: We're going to.
Speaker 1: Preach the truth because this is what will grow true believers.
Speaker 1: This was what will fortify true believers. This is what
Speaker 1: will strengthen the true body of Christ. So he reminded
Speaker 1: me out of Matthew chapter five, what's happened in Europe
Speaker 1: If the salt loses its saber, then it's good for nothing,
Speaker 1: only meant to be trampled upon. The Church in Europe
Speaker 1: is trampled upon. And it says, if the salt loses
Speaker 1: its favor, it's flavor, it's saber, then it becomes good
Speaker 1: for nothing, only worth that to be, you know, trampled
Speaker 1: on and cast out. The Church of Europe is trampled
Speaker 1: upond and cast out what They lost their flavor? They
Speaker 1: lost their flavor. Now you know, I got an epic
Speaker 1: Times article this week. The eatery said, oh I loved it.
Speaker 1: Any salt lovers in the building, Oh I love salt,
Speaker 1: Give me a potatoed ship. Give me a peanut doused
Speaker 1: in triple salt. Right, don't you give me those plain peanuts?
Speaker 1: Hate those things. I got this article this week. It said,
Speaker 1: news studies show that sodium. It is it, that sodium
Speaker 1: is effective to destroy cancer. O, praise God, give me
Speaker 1: more sodium, baby, listen to the metaphor. All these studies
Speaker 1: voted one out of twenty nineteen, and they quoted one
Speaker 1: out of twenty twenty two, and the recent one. Then
Speaker 1: the article, you know, it ends by saying, but you know,
Speaker 1: we're not sure that this works for humans, so don't
Speaker 1: increase your sodium content. I'm like, oh, baby, it works.
Speaker 1: Hand me the salt. Shut up and give me the salt.
Speaker 1: But I'm thinking of the metaphor. Think about the metaphor
Speaker 1: the salt. Here we get we're literally killing the cancer
Speaker 1: of the demonic realm. Cancer is a satanic sickness. It's
Speaker 1: like a satanic disease. We got to be so oh,
Speaker 1: we got to be so salty. I mean, we just
Speaker 1: gotta whoo shake everywhere you go, get a little on
Speaker 1: somebody everywhere you go.
Speaker 2: Right, kill the cancer. Kill the cancer.
Speaker 1: Is the law, contrary to the promises of God, may
Speaker 1: never be For if a law had been given which
Speaker 1: was able to part life, then righteousness would indeed be
Speaker 1: based on the law. But the scripture has shut up
Speaker 1: everyone under sin. Oh I'm righteous.
Speaker 2: Shut up.
Speaker 1: How don't you like that? Oh no, I'm a really
Speaker 1: good person.
Speaker 2: Shut up. Have you lied? Yeah? Shut up? Then? Right?
Speaker 2: Have you stolen? Yeah a little bit? Shut up. The
Speaker 2: law has shut up.
Speaker 1: Everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ might be given.
Speaker 2: To those who believe.
Speaker 1: Before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law,
Speaker 1: being shut up to the faith which was later to
Speaker 1: be revealed. Therefore, the law became our tutor, our disciplinarian,
Speaker 1: to lead us to Christ so that we may be.
Speaker 2: Justified by faith.
Speaker 1: Satan knows we are on the cusp of a billion
Speaker 1: soul harvest, and he's trying so hard now to bring
Speaker 1: lawlessness into the picture. Second, Thessalonians two says lawlessness is
Speaker 1: the working of Satan. It's literally the activity of Satan,
Speaker 1: because Satan knows that the law draws people to God.
Speaker 1: Oh Church, my exhortation for us today stand it with me.
Speaker 1: We cannot forsake the laws of God. We cannot forsake
Speaker 1: the laws of our nation. We cannot forsake our involvement
Speaker 1: in the governmental expression of the laws of our nation.
Speaker 1: We cannot hide ourselves in the priestly realm of the church.
Speaker 1: Only when the church the Lucia, has a senate expression,
Speaker 1: it has a legislative expression. And God's calling us to
Speaker 1: this legislative expression. From the seven to seven, what shall
Speaker 1: we say is the law sin may never be. On
Speaker 1: the contrary, I would not have come to known sin
Speaker 1: except through the law, for I would not have known
Speaker 1: about coveting if the law had not said thou shalt
Speaker 1: not covet. But sin taking an opportunity through the commandment
Speaker 1: produced in me coveting of every kind. For apart from
Speaker 1: the law, sin is dead. I was once alive from
Speaker 1: apart from the law, as a little one, But when
Speaker 1: the commandment came, sin became alive, and I died. In
Speaker 1: this commandment, which was the result in life, proved to
Speaker 1: result in death for me, for sin taking an opportunity
Speaker 1: through the commandment deceived me and through it killed me.
Speaker 1: So then the law is holy, and the commandment is
Speaker 1: holy and righteous and good. See the law. The law
Speaker 1: is critical because the law is used by the Holy
Speaker 1: Spirit to bring the conviction of the three things that
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit said he would come to do, conviction of sin, judgment,
Speaker 1: and righteousness. And the law is one of the hinges
Speaker 1: for the conviction of this Holy Spirit in culture. And
Speaker 1: so we can't get into this thing.
Speaker 2: We can't.
Speaker 1: We have to renounce this thing where yeah, yeah, we'll
Speaker 1: just let them bring any law they want. We'll just
Speaker 1: let them destroy every law that's good. It doesn't really matter.
Speaker 1: You can't legislate morality anyway. Oh, no, no, we got
Speaker 1: to renounce that. That's the working of Satan, that is
Speaker 1: the working of the lawless one, the one who works
Speaker 1: in iniquity. Say with me, Holy Spirit, I embrace again
Speaker 1: today the priestly life and the priestly role, and the
Speaker 1: priestly anointing of the Church, the ecclesia. And I embrace
Speaker 1: also today the governmental role, the governmental call, the kingly call,
Speaker 1: which includes the judicial, it includes the law giving, it
Speaker 1: includes the kingly executive leadership of the nation. I embrace
Speaker 1: this today, Father, as part of my calling in Christ
Speaker 1: in the Beloved, for You've made me to shoulder both
Speaker 1: the priestly and the government. And I rejoice in this grace.
Speaker 1: Say with me, I rejoice in this grace. I rejoice
Speaker 1: in this grace. I read joice in this grace. I
Speaker 1: read joice in this grace. Father, I repent on behalf
Speaker 1: of the church. I repent on behalf of the church.
Speaker 1: I renounce the shir king of our responsibility to carry
Speaker 1: the shoulder government. And I say no more, no more
Speaker 1: does the church run from the anointing, the calling, and
Speaker 1: the responsibility. In Jesus' name, everybody said, God, bless your church.
