1
00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:10.199
<v Speaker 1>Lulujah, Good morning, Church. Let stand in prayer of the Word.

2
00:00:11.839 --> 00:00:12.039
<v Speaker 2>Thought.

3
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:14.839
<v Speaker 1>We thank you for your touch on our lives. We

4
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:18.359
<v Speaker 1>thank you for the ministry of the Word in our midst.

5
00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:24.160
<v Speaker 1>We welcome you to shake the ground of our hearts,

6
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:29.199
<v Speaker 1>shake the ground of our nation. I'll give you the

7
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:33.840
<v Speaker 1>praise for it in Jesus' name. Everybody said, Amen, you

8
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:41.200
<v Speaker 1>may be seated. I want to I want to start

9
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:45.479
<v Speaker 1>with some thoughts out of last week Isaiah nine six

10
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:50.479
<v Speaker 1>through seven. We talked about a government of peace for

11
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:53.159
<v Speaker 1>to us a child is born, to us as son

12
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:58.399
<v Speaker 1>is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.

13
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Everybody say, government on his shoulders, and he will be

14
00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:11.280
<v Speaker 1>called wonderful counselor Mighty God, everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

15
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Of the greatness of his government and peace, there will

16
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:19.280
<v Speaker 1>be no end. Remember, I prefer a different translation than

17
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.959
<v Speaker 1>the NIV which we have here. I prefer New American

18
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>New King James ZESV some of these others King James

19
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.799
<v Speaker 1>even which says of the increase of his government of peace,

20
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:39.640
<v Speaker 1>there shall be no end. It's an increase, it's a progression.

21
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 1>So yes, it's great, but it's increasing. He will reign

22
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.519
<v Speaker 1>on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing it and

23
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:51.519
<v Speaker 1>upholding it with justice and righteousness. So remember, well, last

24
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:55.400
<v Speaker 1>week we talked about he's reigning on two thrones. He's

25
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.480
<v Speaker 1>a king and a priest. Right, he's a king and

26
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:02.280
<v Speaker 1>a priest. He's reigning on two thrones. He's reigning on

27
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>the throne of Melkezedic. That's his priestly ministry. He's reigning

28
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.520
<v Speaker 1>on the throne of David. That's his kingly ministry. So

29
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 1>he's fulfilling both. Everybody say both with me. This morning,

30
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:18.159
<v Speaker 1>he will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom,

31
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:22.439
<v Speaker 1>establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness. From that

32
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:26.639
<v Speaker 1>time on and forever, the zeal of the Lord Almighty

33
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:30.599
<v Speaker 1>will accomplish this. The zeal of the Lord in you,

34
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the zeal of the Lord and you. It's the zeal

35
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:39.240
<v Speaker 1>of the Lord and you. It's not just the zeal

36
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:43.199
<v Speaker 1>of the Lord in some ambiguous arena. It's not just

37
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:46.599
<v Speaker 1>the zeal of the Lord somewhere out there in outer space.

38
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:49.719
<v Speaker 1>The zeal of the Lord's been loosed in you. You

39
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>are the partner of God in government, not just the

40
00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.199
<v Speaker 1>partner of God in churches and priestly ministry SAMN. So

41
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:03.199
<v Speaker 1>what we talked about last week a little bit is

42
00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:06.199
<v Speaker 1>that God is working to bring forth a government of peace,

43
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:11.560
<v Speaker 1>a government that is on the shoulders of Jesus in

44
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:13.680
<v Speaker 1>and through the hearts of all of those who trust

45
00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:14.319
<v Speaker 1>in Jesus.

46
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:15.719
<v Speaker 2>Meaning then we.

47
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.039
<v Speaker 1>All have to shoulder government, we all have to embrace government,

48
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:21.719
<v Speaker 1>we all have to be involved in government. And that's

49
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:24.919
<v Speaker 1>what made this nation great in the beginning, and in

50
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:27.919
<v Speaker 1>the first place, what made this nation great was the

51
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:33.479
<v Speaker 1>vision that the forefathers had that government would be representative

52
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:36.840
<v Speaker 1>of the people. So the church would carry the priestly,

53
00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:40.719
<v Speaker 1>the government would carry the three branches. Out of Isaiah

54
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>thirty three twenty two, the government would carry the judicial,

55
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:57.560
<v Speaker 1>the legislative, and the executive. Thank you, legislative is the law.

56
00:03:58.080 --> 00:03:59.439
<v Speaker 1>So I want to go over. Let me read that

57
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:01.199
<v Speaker 1>one to you. But I don't know if you knew

58
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>some of this stuff, right, but I'm supposing you probably didn't.

59
00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm just making you happy reminding you of what you

60
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:14.439
<v Speaker 1>alread knew because your genius is But Isaiah thirty three

61
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:18.800
<v Speaker 1>twenty two, for the Lord is our judge, the Lord

62
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:23.639
<v Speaker 1>is our lawgiver. Or law maker. The Lord is our king,

63
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:29.519
<v Speaker 1>he will save us. This scripture was the inspiration of

64
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:33.000
<v Speaker 1>the founding fathers for the three benches of government. The

65
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.839
<v Speaker 1>Lord is no Now you got to recognize the Lord

66
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:39.519
<v Speaker 1>is our judge, The Lord is our lawgiver, The Lord

67
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:43.079
<v Speaker 1>is our king. You got to recognize. This is governments

68
00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:47.639
<v Speaker 1>flowing out of the Lord. They understood that, they thought

69
00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:52.319
<v Speaker 1>they had a vision of that. They discerned that a

70
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.759
<v Speaker 1>nation that would stand would have to be built on

71
00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>not man made laws, but built on the government that

72
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:04.839
<v Speaker 1>is the Lord. So even this, you know this passage.

73
00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I told you last week. I tormented you. I told

74
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:10.560
<v Speaker 1>you last week that the government shall be upon his shoulders.

75
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.959
<v Speaker 1>The fulfillment of that means that those who are his

76
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:17.839
<v Speaker 1>shoulder government. It also means some other things, though, I mean,

77
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:19.360
<v Speaker 1>there's some other stuff that it means, and I think

78
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:22.600
<v Speaker 1>this is important. It means that the government will be

79
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 1>upon his word, The government will be upon his stature,

80
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.360
<v Speaker 1>the government will be upon his character, the government will

81
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:34.000
<v Speaker 1>be upon his truth, The government will be upon his law,

82
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:40.319
<v Speaker 1>his commandments. Right, So this is this is it's interesting

83
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:44.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's interesting to note that the priestly ministry is

84
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:49.439
<v Speaker 1>also upon his stature, we're called the priestly ministry is

85
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 1>called to grow up into the fullness of the stature.

86
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>This is Ephesian chapter four.

87
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 1>That Jesus, and you'll also notice the priestly ministry, though

88
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:00.639
<v Speaker 1>it belongs to him, he's the high priest. Guess what

89
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>he's done. He's distributed to us. He even said in

90
00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:08.720
<v Speaker 1>John twenty through twenty twenty through twenty two, he said

91
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.199
<v Speaker 1>he breathed on them, and he said, who's ever's sins

92
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:13.639
<v Speaker 1>you forgive?

93
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 2>They are forgiven.

94
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:19.920
<v Speaker 1>He was releasing priestly ministry to us. The authority to

95
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:25.319
<v Speaker 1>represent him in bringing people to the cross and announcing

96
00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 1>their sins forgiven was given to the church the Ecclesea.

97
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.279
<v Speaker 1>And so the priestly ministry has been distributed to us,

98
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>but also the kingly ministry. And he distributed the priestly ministry.

99
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:41.199
<v Speaker 1>And he said, I'm giving five offices to the church,

100
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.920
<v Speaker 1>and he names an apostle, prophet, pastor, teacher, evangelist.

101
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:47.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm testing you.

102
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:53.759
<v Speaker 1>Ephesians four eight through eleven. And then he says, and

103
00:06:53.920 --> 00:07:00.519
<v Speaker 1>these offices will remain to equip the body of Christ

104
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:05.240
<v Speaker 1>into the word is Doma, into the word ministry. They'll

105
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>equip the body of Christ into the fullness in ministry,

106
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:12.480
<v Speaker 1>into the fullness of the stature of the faith that

107
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.439
<v Speaker 1>belongs to the Sun. So we're growing up into the

108
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:17.560
<v Speaker 1>stature of Him. And this is what it is for

109
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:21.279
<v Speaker 1>us to carry the ministry. We shoulder the ministry of

110
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Jesus in the priestly realm. And we've done a pretty

111
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.759
<v Speaker 1>good job with that. We've done a fairly good job.

112
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:29.600
<v Speaker 1>The church has done a fairly good job of that.

113
00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:31.560
<v Speaker 1>The church could do better. Could the church do better?

114
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Could you do better than the church could do better? Okay,

115
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:38.560
<v Speaker 1>So but we've got this and we're running after it

116
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:40.240
<v Speaker 1>and we want to do better.

117
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:40.519
<v Speaker 2>Right.

118
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:43.920
<v Speaker 1>But we also he's trying to tell us we also

119
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:49.399
<v Speaker 1>shoulder government. That the government is on his shoulders. And

120
00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:55.519
<v Speaker 1>he carries three roles, like three offices in government, like

121
00:07:55.639 --> 00:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>he carries five offices in the priestly ministry.

122
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:00.839
<v Speaker 2>He is.

123
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:03.560
<v Speaker 1>He carries the role of judge, he carries the role

124
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:09.120
<v Speaker 1>of lawgiver, he carries the role of king. This is

125
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:14.720
<v Speaker 1>and these also are fleshed out through us whose shoulder

126
00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:19.040
<v Speaker 1>government with him because we've embraced it, because we aren't

127
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>only representatives of him in his priestly ministry. We are

128
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:30.079
<v Speaker 1>representacive of Him in his kingly ministry. So Revelation one six,

129
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:36.240
<v Speaker 1>we are a kingdom of priests and kings. He has

130
00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:40.279
<v Speaker 1>made us a kingdom of priests and kings, that we

131
00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 1>would not only bring heaven to earth like the dispensing

132
00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:48.639
<v Speaker 1>of salvation and healing and righteousness, but we would also

133
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:54.480
<v Speaker 1>bring the government of heaven to earth with justice and

134
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:56.720
<v Speaker 1>righteousness and truth.

135
00:08:57.799 --> 00:08:58.919
<v Speaker 2>We bring both.

136
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.399
<v Speaker 1>And I tormented you a little last week by saying

137
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:07.480
<v Speaker 1>that we as a people, we have shirked the kingly

138
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:12.159
<v Speaker 1>responsibility we have. We've abdicated it, We've given it away,

139
00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:15.320
<v Speaker 1>We've let others take it, We've said we didn't want it.

140
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:18.879
<v Speaker 1>We didn't even recognize it as a calling over here.

141
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.320
<v Speaker 1>If I feel like I'm called to ministry, that means

142
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm called to preach.

143
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:23.679
<v Speaker 2>Whoa nellie.

144
00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:26.200
<v Speaker 1>But if I'm called the ministry, I mean but if

145
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm called the government, Oh that's a bummer. I haven't

146
00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:34.519
<v Speaker 1>even seen this as a dignified calling, a calling wherein

147
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.559
<v Speaker 1>I needed to receive an anointing, where in I'm dignified

148
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:43.679
<v Speaker 1>and and treated with dignity in the body of Christ.

149
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:46.080
<v Speaker 1>You're called the government. Oh you're called to be an attorney.

150
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 1>You're called the law. Oh yeah, we'll talk to you later.

151
00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:54.679
<v Speaker 1>Where's the preachers, where's the prophets? We've been all excited

152
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:57.159
<v Speaker 1>about the priestly side, but we haven't been excited about

153
00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.519
<v Speaker 1>the kingly side. God is saying we need to wake

154
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:06.279
<v Speaker 1>up and be called back into and love and honor

155
00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:10.279
<v Speaker 1>the kingly calling. Because the kingly calling is an anointed

156
00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:14.919
<v Speaker 1>calling of Christ, just as the priestly calling. This is

157
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:18.120
<v Speaker 1>just as valid of a calling as the priestly calling.

158
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.519
<v Speaker 1>Anything over here to do with the priestly, any of

159
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.159
<v Speaker 1>those offices of ministry, this is just as valid, just

160
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:28.879
<v Speaker 1>as powerful, just as anointed, just as needful. We need

161
00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:33.039
<v Speaker 1>to embrace this. And it means judicial, It means laws,

162
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:36.000
<v Speaker 1>and it means it's the third one I keep forgetting

163
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:47.320
<v Speaker 1>executive Brench kingly, are you hearing me? Our forefathers knew this,

164
00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:51.360
<v Speaker 1>They knew this, They studied this when they when they

165
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:55.120
<v Speaker 1>came over here, they came over with prayer. They wrote

166
00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 1>up the may Mayflower Compact? Was it the may foul Compact?

167
00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Help me, honey, they wrote up this Mayflower. I mean

168
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:05.080
<v Speaker 1>they had all this stuff right and so, and they

169
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:11.399
<v Speaker 1>had prayer, and they knew that the value of the

170
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:16.039
<v Speaker 1>laws that were resting on the word of God. So

171
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:20.480
<v Speaker 1>when they wrote the Constitution, when they were drafting the

172
00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:24.519
<v Speaker 1>laws of our nation, they were mindful of the Word

173
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.679
<v Speaker 1>of God. They were thinking about the Word of God.

174
00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:30.360
<v Speaker 1>They actually turned to and went to the civil laws

175
00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.440
<v Speaker 1>of the Word of God as well as the Ten Commitments.

176
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:36.919
<v Speaker 1>They were looking within those laws to see, okay, because

177
00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:41.240
<v Speaker 1>if we have these laws as the foundation of our nation,

178
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:43.840
<v Speaker 1>then what's going to happen is we're going to have

179
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:47.559
<v Speaker 1>a prospering people, and it's going to be inviting God

180
00:11:47.600 --> 00:11:51.120
<v Speaker 1>to be present and acknowledging Him. As we do that,

181
00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:54.480
<v Speaker 1>then God's blessing is going to be on the nation.

182
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Whether you're a believer or not, whether you have acknowledged

183
00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:02.399
<v Speaker 1>you Jesus are not there, You're going to be under

184
00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:08.080
<v Speaker 1>a covering of blessing because we've embraced the laws of God.

185
00:12:10.919 --> 00:12:11.879
<v Speaker 2>This is super important.

186
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:14.919
<v Speaker 1>But now what we see is we see that as

187
00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:21.279
<v Speaker 1>unrighteousness has increased, and you know, unrighteousness is not unrighteousness

188
00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:24.480
<v Speaker 1>or the wicked. They are not a majority in the nation,

189
00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:29.240
<v Speaker 1>but as the minority has gotten emboldened, and as they've

190
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:33.039
<v Speaker 1>gotten loud, and as the Church has hid its head

191
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.960
<v Speaker 1>in the auditorium, and hid its head in the sanctuary,

192
00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:40.960
<v Speaker 1>and hid itself not in the sand, but kind of

193
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:43.360
<v Speaker 1>like in the sand. Right, you put your head down

194
00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:45.919
<v Speaker 1>in the sand, and you can't see, and.

195
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:47.480
<v Speaker 2>You la la la la la.

196
00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:52.000
<v Speaker 1>God is sovereign. God is sovereign, And so well, he'll

197
00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:54.679
<v Speaker 1>just we just have more meetings here at the house.

198
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:58.559
<v Speaker 1>He'll just take care of all this in his sovereignty.

199
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.919
<v Speaker 1>Here's what happens. His sovereignty is meant to be fleshed

200
00:13:02.919 --> 00:13:06.519
<v Speaker 1>out through those who walk with him. His sovereignty is

201
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.279
<v Speaker 1>fleshed out through you and me. So if you and

202
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>me are not partnering with him, I do nothing unless

203
00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:15.080
<v Speaker 1>I show the prophets. This is what the Bible says,

204
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:18.559
<v Speaker 1>He partners with us. Somebody else thought that it would

205
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:20.960
<v Speaker 1>work this way as well. Do you remember who that was?

206
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:22.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you remember, But there was a

207
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:28.360
<v Speaker 1>bunch of people who were the multi inherited generations of

208
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:31.240
<v Speaker 1>a promise to inherit the promised land. Do you remember that?

209
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:36.200
<v Speaker 1>And so the time wasn't right, and it still wasn't right,

210
00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:38.399
<v Speaker 1>and it wasn't time to go in. And one of

211
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:41.039
<v Speaker 1>the reasons they couldn't go in is God said through

212
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:44.799
<v Speaker 1>the prophets that the sin of the Amorite has not

213
00:13:44.960 --> 00:13:48.480
<v Speaker 1>come to full maturety. And so because to go in

214
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and possess the Promised Land, they were to go in

215
00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:55.919
<v Speaker 1>and judge the seven nations that were there. Those nations

216
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:59.000
<v Speaker 1>had to be judged, but their iniquity had not come

217
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.840
<v Speaker 1>to a full up yet, and so it wasn't time

218
00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:04.480
<v Speaker 1>to go in. But there was a day when it

219
00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:07.200
<v Speaker 1>was time to go in. There was a day when

220
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:10.559
<v Speaker 1>God said, all right, it's time to go in and

221
00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:14.120
<v Speaker 1>possess the Promised Land. But there was a generation who

222
00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:17.720
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't believe. There was a generation who where we be

223
00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:21.759
<v Speaker 1>not able generation? There was a generation. Are you here

224
00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:25.720
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. I'm talking about God's sovereignty because the church.

225
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:29.039
<v Speaker 1>One of the faults with the Church is we've hidden

226
00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Speaker 1>our head in the sand of God, his sovereign. So

227
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.039
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna put on the president whoever he wants in there.

228
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't even need to vote. He's just going to

229
00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.720
<v Speaker 1>take care of everything down the county city building, no

230
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:40.080
<v Speaker 1>matter what.

231
00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:42.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't even need to show up. All I need

232
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:44.639
<v Speaker 2>to do is go to a prayer meeting. God does

233
00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:50.759
<v Speaker 2>these things? Is this a God? I have to my head?

234
00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:51.360
<v Speaker 2>What is this?

235
00:14:53.759 --> 00:15:00.919
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I'm just pointing the abbreviation of a mountain mt. Hello, somebody,

236
00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>we haven't been partnering with God appropriately, because what happens

237
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.960
<v Speaker 1>in sovereignty is God needs us to hear what he's saying,

238
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:12.399
<v Speaker 1>see what he's saying, see what he's doing, and then

239
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.759
<v Speaker 1>partner with him with appropriate expression. And that isn't just

240
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:19.799
<v Speaker 1>expression here in the house, but it's lifting up our

241
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:23.960
<v Speaker 1>lives and pouring our lives into the culture, the culture

242
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.200
<v Speaker 1>we've been convinced to abandon. But this is our nation,

243
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:32.159
<v Speaker 1>this is our earth, This is our earth. The earth

244
00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:42.879
<v Speaker 1>belongs to the Lord. The meek shall inherit the So

245
00:15:43.279 --> 00:15:47.279
<v Speaker 1>thinking about God's sovereignty, we have to stop thinking God's

246
00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:49.879
<v Speaker 1>going to do what he wants to do all by himself.

247
00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:53.960
<v Speaker 1>That's what the Israelite people did. And so what happened

248
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:59.679
<v Speaker 1>is that through their unbelief and through their small thinking

249
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and seeing that the land was full of giants, God said, oh,

250
00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I can't take this generation in. Well, that's confusing. Didn't

251
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:14.120
<v Speaker 1>you say it's time to go in. Yeah, well, didn't

252
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:17.639
<v Speaker 1>you say that we should go in? Yeah, well, then

253
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:20.159
<v Speaker 1>why don't you take us in? Because you won't believe.

254
00:16:20.759 --> 00:16:25.000
<v Speaker 1>So you have to partner your faith with me. If

255
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.679
<v Speaker 1>you'll partner, all of you Israelites, listen to me, If

256
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:30.320
<v Speaker 1>you'll partner your faith with me, then we can go in.

257
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:34.080
<v Speaker 2>Because you already said, these.

258
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Seven nations are stronger, greaterier, and mightier than us, and

259
00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:42.200
<v Speaker 1>they're nations of war. So you don't have the ability

260
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:44.759
<v Speaker 1>to go in and whoop up on them and inherit

261
00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:47.200
<v Speaker 1>the Promised Land on your own. The only way you're

262
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:49.679
<v Speaker 1>going to go in and inherit the Promised Land is

263
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:53.039
<v Speaker 1>if you look to me in faith and then I

264
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:56.919
<v Speaker 1>do the whooping while you do the merchant. That's the

265
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:00.519
<v Speaker 1>only way it'll work. There has to be a faith expression.

266
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:06.559
<v Speaker 1>So so God's sovereignty crashed and burned for a full

267
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:09.119
<v Speaker 1>generation until that generation died.

268
00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:11.559
<v Speaker 2>That generation had to die off.

269
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:15.400
<v Speaker 1>And God said, okay, I couldn't get you generation, but I.

270
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:16.279
<v Speaker 2>Can get your babies.

271
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:19.079
<v Speaker 1>So, Joshua and Caleb, I want you to have Sunday school,

272
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Monday school, Tuesday school, Thursday school, Friday school, Saturday school,

273
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:25.559
<v Speaker 1>and then start with Sunday School again. Let's just teach

274
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:28.920
<v Speaker 1>this generation faith. We're gonna teach him how to believe God.

275
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:30.880
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna teach him for miracles. We're gonna teach him

276
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:33.319
<v Speaker 1>to partner with angels. We're gonna teach him that God,

277
00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:35.720
<v Speaker 1>who have parted the Red Sea for their parents, can

278
00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:38.599
<v Speaker 1>do anything. And then we're gonna raise up a generation

279
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:40.640
<v Speaker 1>of faith. And guess what, I can partner with them

280
00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:43.880
<v Speaker 1>because they'll partner with me by believing. And we'll go

281
00:17:44.039 --> 00:17:47.079
<v Speaker 1>in and even though the giants look big, we'll drive

282
00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:49.240
<v Speaker 1>them out and dispossess them.

283
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:52.200
<v Speaker 2>How we gonna do it.

284
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:54.839
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna do it with sling shots to their tuber

285
00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:58.799
<v Speaker 1>charged by angels. We're gonna do it with arrows that

286
00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:01.799
<v Speaker 1>release fieries, storms of hailstones. We're gonna do it with

287
00:18:01.799 --> 00:18:04.240
<v Speaker 1>all sorts of stuff. Don't worry about that. Just walk

288
00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:09.759
<v Speaker 1>with me and obey. Come on, let's march. This is

289
00:18:09.839 --> 00:18:12.960
<v Speaker 1>this is we We gotta we gotta be thinking that, yes,

290
00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:16.440
<v Speaker 1>God is sovereign, but the miracles he wants to do

291
00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:21.880
<v Speaker 1>in the priestly ministry and in government, these miracles they

292
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:25.680
<v Speaker 1>have to occur as we agree with them and partner

293
00:18:25.759 --> 00:18:29.240
<v Speaker 1>with him and put shoe leather to what he's saying

294
00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:34.599
<v Speaker 1>and doing and actually show up. We have to show up.

295
00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:38.319
<v Speaker 1>We can't say, well, that's not my realm. Well he's sovereign,

296
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:40.519
<v Speaker 1>he'll just take care of it. Well it's not happening

297
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:43.000
<v Speaker 1>because he doesn't want us to well, evils increasing anyway.

298
00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:46.960
<v Speaker 1>We that's not no, no, no, no no, we're missing it.

299
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:50.359
<v Speaker 1>We're missing it. If that's our attitude, and we will

300
00:18:50.400 --> 00:18:53.440
<v Speaker 1>be like that generation, God won't be able to use

301
00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 1>this appropriately and God will have to raise up a generation.

302
00:18:56.079 --> 00:19:02.279
<v Speaker 1>He'll be trying to do something with our kids. Hello, somebody,

303
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:05.359
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna make a statement there about a bunch

304
00:19:05.400 --> 00:19:07.400
<v Speaker 1>of you needed to get pregnant, but I'll just skip

305
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:12.799
<v Speaker 1>that one. So this is what we're seeing now, is

306
00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:16.160
<v Speaker 1>this massive pushback. We're seeing this, and part of why

307
00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:19.440
<v Speaker 1>we're seeing the pushback is God has released his word

308
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of a billion soul harvest. Satan's having a fit. Secondly,

309
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:25.559
<v Speaker 1>we're seeing a big pushback because we've been so focused

310
00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:27.839
<v Speaker 1>on the rapture and getting out of here that we

311
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:35.319
<v Speaker 1>have not occupied and been after it aggressively in a

312
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:36.799
<v Speaker 1>warfare means.

313
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:38.839
<v Speaker 2>Thirdly, because of that.

314
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Also, we've been filled with hope instead of filled with faith,

315
00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean filled with hopelessness instead of faith. And so

316
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:49.960
<v Speaker 1>a hopeless army Ezequiel thirty seven is a dead army.

317
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:54.160
<v Speaker 1>And you know, fourthly, we've been slothful, we've been prayerless,

318
00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:58.440
<v Speaker 1>we've been self absorbed, prosperity focus, we've been everything under

319
00:19:58.480 --> 00:20:01.839
<v Speaker 1>the sun except for being the warfare people were supposed

320
00:20:01.839 --> 00:20:05.039
<v Speaker 1>to be. We are called to war now it you know,

321
00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:07.680
<v Speaker 1>right now, it's happening. I mean, if we don't wake

322
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 1>up right now, then we're gonna lose the war for

323
00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:16.119
<v Speaker 1>a generation because satan ainate plan. That isn't that isn't

324
00:20:16.119 --> 00:20:18.079
<v Speaker 1>a word, but I'll just use it. Satan aint planned,

325
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:22.319
<v Speaker 1>Satan nate plan. Now you can, you can hit your

326
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:25.160
<v Speaker 1>you put your head down your video games and and

327
00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:27.160
<v Speaker 1>you can put your little head down in the sand

328
00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:30.119
<v Speaker 1>of churchism. You can. But I'm telling you, Satan nate plan.

329
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:32.680
<v Speaker 1>He wants the entire earth. He wants the people of

330
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:35.119
<v Speaker 1>the earth. He wants your neighbors, he wants everybody, he

331
00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:38.200
<v Speaker 1>wants your children, he wants everybody. And he ain't planned.

332
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:42.559
<v Speaker 1>This is a spiritual battle. This is a spiritual war.

333
00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:55.200
<v Speaker 1>This is spiritual fighting. This is this is the real deal. So,

334
00:20:55.480 --> 00:20:58.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, we've seen some of the stuff happening recently. Now,

335
00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:01.000
<v Speaker 1>some of what we've seen happening recently is because Satan

336
00:21:01.079 --> 00:21:04.400
<v Speaker 1>knows something. This is very interesting. Satan is the man

337
00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:08.920
<v Speaker 1>of lawlessness. Satan is the spirit of lawlessness. He's the

338
00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:13.880
<v Speaker 1>spirit of chaos and anarchy. And what he knows is

339
00:21:13.960 --> 00:21:21.119
<v Speaker 1>that the law draws people to God. Lawlessness pushes people

340
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:30.839
<v Speaker 1>away from God. Lawlessness pushes people away from God. The

341
00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:34.480
<v Speaker 1>law draws people to God.

342
00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so Satan knows that.

343
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:39.279
<v Speaker 1>So you can see all of these things that are

344
00:21:39.319 --> 00:21:43.720
<v Speaker 1>going on recently before COVID, during COVID, some of this

345
00:21:43.880 --> 00:21:48.200
<v Speaker 1>was brought to light during COVID, but the decriminalizing of

346
00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:57.720
<v Speaker 1>criminal activity, the minimizing of crime or prison times or

347
00:21:57.759 --> 00:22:04.200
<v Speaker 1>reduction or elimination, the sorrow's fact prosecutors and the decriminalizing

348
00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:08.400
<v Speaker 1>that they are being, that they're expressing and their state

349
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:12.839
<v Speaker 1>are in their governments, the left leaning governmental leaders changing

350
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:16.680
<v Speaker 1>the definition of felonies and crimes in their states. All

351
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:21.119
<v Speaker 1>of this stuff that's going on. This is Satan working

352
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:30.319
<v Speaker 1>to reduce the law and to expand lawlessness. Lawlessness is

353
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:34.759
<v Speaker 1>what he flourishes in. And the hope in the demonic

354
00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:41.880
<v Speaker 1>mind is that lawlessness pushes people away from God, therefore

355
00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:51.440
<v Speaker 1>circumventing the billion soul harvest. All the while, while this

356
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:55.799
<v Speaker 1>is happening, Christians, we're put on our thumbs or picking

357
00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:56.519
<v Speaker 1>our nose.

358
00:22:56.839 --> 00:22:58.000
<v Speaker 2>We're touting in church.

359
00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:02.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're doing all sorts of well, I mean,

360
00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:04.640
<v Speaker 1>at that age you can, but I mean, you know,

361
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:06.680
<v Speaker 1>but I mean, you know all this, But.

362
00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:08.640
<v Speaker 2>No, we got to wake up church, Church, We got

363
00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:09.119
<v Speaker 2>to wake.

364
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Up Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. Then then what's happening

365
00:23:12.640 --> 00:23:15.119
<v Speaker 1>is we got this thing going on all across the nation.

366
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.119
<v Speaker 1>We got a bunch of Christian folks saying, yeah, that's right,

367
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:21.279
<v Speaker 1>we shouldn't have no Christian laws. We got to push them.

368
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:23.759
<v Speaker 1>We can't have any Bible based laws. We're going to

369
00:23:23.839 --> 00:23:28.039
<v Speaker 1>offend people. We're going to drive people away from the

370
00:23:28.160 --> 00:23:30.400
<v Speaker 1>Lord if we have that stuff. I mean, we're no

371
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:31.960
<v Speaker 1>longer a Christian nation anyway.

372
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:35.799
<v Speaker 2>Who do we think we are? We got to calm down.

373
00:23:35.880 --> 00:23:38.400
<v Speaker 1>And so we got all these Christians they're like, that's

374
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Christian nationalism. We can't force that on folk. You know,

375
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:45.960
<v Speaker 1>we can't be doing that. Well, we've done it for

376
00:23:46.039 --> 00:23:49.400
<v Speaker 1>over two hundred years. It's been working fine. You got

377
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:52.000
<v Speaker 1>to retard gene that kicked in or something. What's going on.

378
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:56.839
<v Speaker 1>It's been working just fine. It's been working just fine.

379
00:23:58.200 --> 00:24:02.039
<v Speaker 1>And so and we got all these Christian consider Well, yeah,

380
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:04.920
<v Speaker 1>you can't legislate morality. God's been doing it for a

381
00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:07.359
<v Speaker 1>long time. I don't know where what planet you just

382
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:12.279
<v Speaker 1>arrived from. Anyway, Listen, it's not Christians legislating morality anyway.

383
00:24:12.519 --> 00:24:14.799
<v Speaker 1>All we're doing is reading the book, and we're saying

384
00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:18.519
<v Speaker 1>to one another, the book applies to every person. God

385
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>legislates morality. God is law maker. That's Isaiah thirty three

386
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:26.640
<v Speaker 1>twenty two. God is lawmaker. We're smart if we just

387
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:30.000
<v Speaker 1>figure out what laws He's made, and then we abide

388
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:34.000
<v Speaker 1>by those, and we publish those one to another, and

389
00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:36.400
<v Speaker 1>we call the violation of those one to another.

390
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:42.319
<v Speaker 2>When we harm one another a crime, that's a crime. Hello.

391
00:24:43.079 --> 00:24:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Well okay, and.

392
00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:47.440
<v Speaker 1>So we got Christians doing this, and I understand a

393
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:50.000
<v Speaker 1>little bit. I mean I understood. They almost sucked me in.

394
00:24:50.079 --> 00:24:53.079
<v Speaker 1>I was getting seduced by this thing. Yeah, yeah, that's right.

395
00:24:53.119 --> 00:24:56.839
<v Speaker 1>We can't legislate morality. Yeah, yeah, we got to be careful. Yeah,

396
00:24:56.880 --> 00:24:58.599
<v Speaker 1>we got to be kid. That's right, that's right.

397
00:24:58.920 --> 00:25:00.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because we got to win heart.

398
00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:02.160
<v Speaker 1>And if you don't win the heart, big deal, you know.

399
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we don't want just outward behavior, you know

400
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of a thing, and you know, we got to

401
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:09.519
<v Speaker 1>win the heart, you know, that kind of a thing.

402
00:25:09.559 --> 00:25:13.599
<v Speaker 1>And so I was getting sucked into it myself. I

403
00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:16.319
<v Speaker 1>was getting sucked into it. Then I read the Bible.

404
00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:18.480
<v Speaker 1>The Bible sheds a lot of light on stupid ideas,

405
00:25:20.599 --> 00:25:22.119
<v Speaker 1>and the Bible says, no, no, no, no.

406
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:22.519
<v Speaker 2>God.

407
00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:26.720
<v Speaker 1>God gave us the law to push us toward faith.

408
00:25:27.079 --> 00:25:30.359
<v Speaker 1>And God uses the law to drive people toward faith.

409
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:36.240
<v Speaker 1>And the law is actually a tutor. It's it's a disciplinarian.

410
00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:36.839
<v Speaker 2>Actually.

411
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:40.440
<v Speaker 1>That actually draw because it shows all of us how

412
00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:44.000
<v Speaker 1>miserable we are, and every one of us, our lives

413
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:46.640
<v Speaker 1>are measured up against the law, and then we come

414
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:48.599
<v Speaker 1>up short, and then we feel like a pile of poop,

415
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:49.200
<v Speaker 1>and then.

416
00:25:49.079 --> 00:25:49.960
<v Speaker 2>We've got to go.

417
00:25:50.920 --> 00:25:54.119
<v Speaker 1>This is a special sermon today, You're we got every

418
00:25:54.839 --> 00:25:56.039
<v Speaker 1>I haven't cussed yet. Now.

419
00:25:56.039 --> 00:25:58.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't like cussing. I don't even like that.

420
00:25:58.119 --> 00:26:00.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't cuss at home is as bad as it gets.

421
00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:03.000
<v Speaker 1>But we might have more of that coming in a minute.

422
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:07.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but I'm just telling you we got

423
00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:10.920
<v Speaker 1>I got a revelation on this. I begin to get

424
00:26:10.960 --> 00:26:13.519
<v Speaker 1>a revelation in the word is that, Oh this is

425
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Satan's up to something. And now he's getting all the

426
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Christians to agree. Yeah, you can't legislate morality, so then

427
00:26:20.079 --> 00:26:23.480
<v Speaker 1>let's pass those Okay, Well, let's just make all drugs legal.

428
00:26:23.519 --> 00:26:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh, that's a good idea.

429
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:27.279
<v Speaker 1>Let's do that like Oregon does that, Washington did that

430
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:31.200
<v Speaker 1>in Massachusetts. So that let's make all abortions. Yeah, you

431
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:33.119
<v Speaker 1>can kill your baby, let's make all that legal. We

432
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:35.240
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be putting nothing on nobody, and we

433
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:38.200
<v Speaker 1>don't want to we don't want to offend any sinners.

434
00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:41.880
<v Speaker 1>That'd be a bad that's bad, stupid, that's stupid. This

435
00:26:42.079 --> 00:26:43.359
<v Speaker 1>is stupid.

436
00:26:43.799 --> 00:26:45.359
<v Speaker 2>This what this is.

437
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:49.519
<v Speaker 1>And part of this, part of this is believe it

438
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:52.279
<v Speaker 1>or not. Part of this why it's so popular in

439
00:26:52.480 --> 00:26:57.599
<v Speaker 1>the church is because this is it's it's the secret,

440
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:05.559
<v Speaker 1>secret sensitive model seekre sensitive Christian church growth is that

441
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:09.440
<v Speaker 1>if we make people feel bad, they won't come to church,

442
00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:11.559
<v Speaker 1>or they won't come to Jesus. We're gonna drive them

443
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:14.480
<v Speaker 1>away from God. And so we can't make people feel bad.

444
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:17.880
<v Speaker 1>We need to make people feel good. And so don't

445
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:20.079
<v Speaker 1>tell people that they're sinning.

446
00:27:21.039 --> 00:27:21.480
<v Speaker 2>That's bad.

447
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Like, don't even tell anybody that they got a bad trade.

448
00:27:24.200 --> 00:27:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Don't even do that, you know, just just love everybody,

449
00:27:27.319 --> 00:27:33.079
<v Speaker 1>Love everybody with stupidity, a love that will not a

450
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:35.680
<v Speaker 1>love that will not draw them up into the royalty

451
00:27:35.720 --> 00:27:48.079
<v Speaker 1>that they're actually called to. So we kind of bought

452
00:27:48.119 --> 00:27:50.960
<v Speaker 1>into some of this. You hear me, we've kind of

453
00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:52.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, maybe you've talked that way. Yeah, yeah,

454
00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:58.319
<v Speaker 1>you can't legislate morality. Well, no, all morality is actually legislated.

455
00:27:59.039 --> 00:28:02.720
<v Speaker 1>And I got another thought for you is that when

456
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:06.519
<v Speaker 1>you pass some of these stupid laws, you're actually legislating

457
00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:12.599
<v Speaker 1>Satan's morality. So whose morality are you going to legislate?

458
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:18.599
<v Speaker 1>Because you cannot avoid legislating morality? So are you going

459
00:28:18.640 --> 00:28:22.440
<v Speaker 1>to legislate Satan's Are you going to legislate the lords?

460
00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Here's this revelation. I got this revelation I got, you know,

461
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:38.319
<v Speaker 1>about the Word of God because and I want to

462
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:40.640
<v Speaker 1>go to Galatians are out of time we're out of time.

463
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Go to Galatians. Go to Galatians, Chapter three, verse twenty one. Pardon, Oh,

464
00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:57.880
<v Speaker 1>I love this congregation. This is my this is my home.

465
00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:02.160
<v Speaker 1>We got we got some fiery up people here. We

466
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:06.440
<v Speaker 1>got real Christians. We got real Christians at New Horizon.

467
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:17.799
<v Speaker 1>Now this is listen, listen, listen, what's happened. The church

468
00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:22.039
<v Speaker 1>is afraid you'll leave. The church is afraid to tell

469
00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 1>the truth because you might get offended. The church is

470
00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:30.200
<v Speaker 1>afraid you might get offended and not tied. Woe be

471
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:31.160
<v Speaker 1>it unto.

472
00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:33.759
<v Speaker 2>You that you get upset with the preacher and not give.

473
00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:37.680
<v Speaker 1>And so we're just going to feed you these stupid,

474
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:41.880
<v Speaker 1>little silly sermons that don't really.

475
00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:44.279
<v Speaker 2>Do anything.

476
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:47.799
<v Speaker 1>You know, sitting here, the Lord was talking to me

477
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:53.359
<v Speaker 1>during worship, and he reminded me, Matthew five. He reminded

478
00:29:53.359 --> 00:29:56.839
<v Speaker 1>me that what happens with this kind of church, and

479
00:29:56.880 --> 00:29:59.319
<v Speaker 1>it's happening in Europe. It's happened in Europe. Europe's way

480
00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:04.720
<v Speaker 1>ahead of us in this backsliding. And by the way,

481
00:30:04.880 --> 00:30:08.119
<v Speaker 1>Newsom calls it progressive. Right left people call this progressive.

482
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:11.119
<v Speaker 1>The more back slain you get, the more progressive they

483
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:15.880
<v Speaker 1>call it. Oh, you're really progressive. No, you're not progressive.

484
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:20.920
<v Speaker 1>You're actually retreating back into Satanism. You're retreating back into

485
00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:23.920
<v Speaker 1>being under demonic rulers.

486
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Which will soon have us.

487
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:32.720
<v Speaker 1>Devouring one another and soon have our nations in poverty.

488
00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:46.440
<v Speaker 1>These nations that progress this way actually move into poverty, tribalism, witchcraft, poverty.

489
00:30:47.160 --> 00:30:50.000
<v Speaker 1>It's coming to a nation near you. In Europe right now,

490
00:30:50.119 --> 00:30:55.960
<v Speaker 1>they're ahead of us in progressivism. It's demonism. This isn't

491
00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:01.240
<v Speaker 1>progressive thought. This is demonic thought. Are we got to

492
00:31:01.319 --> 00:31:04.519
<v Speaker 1>recognize it and realize that we're in a battle, and

493
00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:08.200
<v Speaker 1>God's calling us to the forefront of the battle, even

494
00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:11.079
<v Speaker 1>if we're a Gideon group and even if those watching,

495
00:31:11.519 --> 00:31:13.240
<v Speaker 1>because we know this is the word of the Lord,

496
00:31:13.519 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 1>and so we're not afraid of a dollar not coming in.

497
00:31:16.160 --> 00:31:16.720
<v Speaker 2>We're not going.

498
00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:19.880
<v Speaker 1>To preach some lie so that we're afraid that somebody

499
00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:20.400
<v Speaker 1>might leave.

500
00:31:20.440 --> 00:31:20.880
<v Speaker 2>We're going to.

501
00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:25.519
<v Speaker 1>Preach the truth because this is what will grow true believers.

502
00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:29.359
<v Speaker 1>This was what will fortify true believers. This is what

503
00:31:29.400 --> 00:31:34.519
<v Speaker 1>will strengthen the true body of Christ. So he reminded

504
00:31:34.519 --> 00:31:38.039
<v Speaker 1>me out of Matthew chapter five, what's happened in Europe

505
00:31:38.119 --> 00:31:44.599
<v Speaker 1>If the salt loses its saber, then it's good for nothing,

506
00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:48.599
<v Speaker 1>only meant to be trampled upon. The Church in Europe

507
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:52.319
<v Speaker 1>is trampled upon. And it says, if the salt loses

508
00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:56.160
<v Speaker 1>its favor, it's flavor, it's saber, then it becomes good

509
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:00.000
<v Speaker 1>for nothing, only worth that to be, you know, trampled

510
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:05.640
<v Speaker 1>on and cast out. The Church of Europe is trampled

511
00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:10.000
<v Speaker 1>upond and cast out what They lost their flavor? They

512
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:12.240
<v Speaker 1>lost their flavor. Now you know, I got an epic

513
00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Times article this week. The eatery said, oh I loved it.

514
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:19.599
<v Speaker 1>Any salt lovers in the building, Oh I love salt,

515
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:25.519
<v Speaker 1>Give me a potatoed ship. Give me a peanut doused

516
00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:29.960
<v Speaker 1>in triple salt. Right, don't you give me those plain peanuts?

517
00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Hate those things. I got this article this week. It said,

518
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:45.039
<v Speaker 1>news studies show that sodium. It is it, that sodium

519
00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:52.920
<v Speaker 1>is effective to destroy cancer. O, praise God, give me

520
00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 1>more sodium, baby, listen to the metaphor. All these studies

521
00:33:00.039 --> 00:33:02.480
<v Speaker 1>voted one out of twenty nineteen, and they quoted one

522
00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:04.799
<v Speaker 1>out of twenty twenty two, and the recent one. Then

523
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the article, you know, it ends by saying, but you know,

524
00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:09.880
<v Speaker 1>we're not sure that this works for humans, so don't

525
00:33:09.920 --> 00:33:13.319
<v Speaker 1>increase your sodium content. I'm like, oh, baby, it works.

526
00:33:13.359 --> 00:33:16.559
<v Speaker 1>Hand me the salt. Shut up and give me the salt.

527
00:33:18.960 --> 00:33:21.599
<v Speaker 1>But I'm thinking of the metaphor. Think about the metaphor

528
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:27.160
<v Speaker 1>the salt. Here we get we're literally killing the cancer

529
00:33:27.680 --> 00:33:33.880
<v Speaker 1>of the demonic realm. Cancer is a satanic sickness. It's

530
00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:40.720
<v Speaker 1>like a satanic disease. We got to be so oh,

531
00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:42.599
<v Speaker 1>we got to be so salty. I mean, we just

532
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:46.559
<v Speaker 1>gotta whoo shake everywhere you go, get a little on

533
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:47.839
<v Speaker 1>somebody everywhere you go.

534
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:52.000
<v Speaker 2>Right, kill the cancer. Kill the cancer.

535
00:33:55.119 --> 00:33:57.359
<v Speaker 1>Is the law, contrary to the promises of God, may

536
00:33:57.480 --> 00:33:59.400
<v Speaker 1>never be For if a law had been given which

537
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:02.079
<v Speaker 1>was able to part life, then righteousness would indeed be

538
00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:05.200
<v Speaker 1>based on the law. But the scripture has shut up

539
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:09.000
<v Speaker 1>everyone under sin. Oh I'm righteous.

540
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:09.559
<v Speaker 2>Shut up.

541
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:16.480
<v Speaker 1>How don't you like that? Oh no, I'm a really

542
00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:17.000
<v Speaker 1>good person.

543
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Shut up. Have you lied? Yeah? Shut up? Then? Right?

544
00:34:25.840 --> 00:34:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Have you stolen? Yeah a little bit? Shut up. The

545
00:34:31.000 --> 00:34:32.719
<v Speaker 2>law has shut up.

546
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in

547
00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Jesus Christ might be given.

548
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:38.360
<v Speaker 2>To those who believe.

549
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law,

550
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:45.880
<v Speaker 1>being shut up to the faith which was later to

551
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:55.079
<v Speaker 1>be revealed. Therefore, the law became our tutor, our disciplinarian,

552
00:34:56.119 --> 00:34:58.360
<v Speaker 1>to lead us to Christ so that we may be.

553
00:34:58.519 --> 00:34:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Justified by faith.

554
00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Satan knows we are on the cusp of a billion

555
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:11.079
<v Speaker 1>soul harvest, and he's trying so hard now to bring

556
00:35:11.599 --> 00:35:17.320
<v Speaker 1>lawlessness into the picture. Second, Thessalonians two says lawlessness is

557
00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the working of Satan. It's literally the activity of Satan,

558
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:27.840
<v Speaker 1>because Satan knows that the law draws people to God.

559
00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:32.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh Church, my exhortation for us today stand it with me.

560
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:37.679
<v Speaker 1>We cannot forsake the laws of God. We cannot forsake

561
00:35:43.440 --> 00:35:48.840
<v Speaker 1>the laws of our nation. We cannot forsake our involvement

562
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:52.800
<v Speaker 1>in the governmental expression of the laws of our nation.

563
00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:57.960
<v Speaker 1>We cannot hide ourselves in the priestly realm of the church.

564
00:35:58.159 --> 00:36:03.639
<v Speaker 1>Only when the church the Lucia, has a senate expression,

565
00:36:03.760 --> 00:36:08.440
<v Speaker 1>it has a legislative expression. And God's calling us to

566
00:36:08.480 --> 00:36:21.239
<v Speaker 1>this legislative expression. From the seven to seven, what shall

567
00:36:21.280 --> 00:36:23.199
<v Speaker 1>we say is the law sin may never be. On

568
00:36:23.239 --> 00:36:26.719
<v Speaker 1>the contrary, I would not have come to known sin

569
00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:29.920
<v Speaker 1>except through the law, for I would not have known

570
00:36:29.960 --> 00:36:32.599
<v Speaker 1>about coveting if the law had not said thou shalt

571
00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:35.920
<v Speaker 1>not covet. But sin taking an opportunity through the commandment

572
00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:39.119
<v Speaker 1>produced in me coveting of every kind. For apart from

573
00:36:39.159 --> 00:36:43.280
<v Speaker 1>the law, sin is dead. I was once alive from

574
00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:48.239
<v Speaker 1>apart from the law, as a little one, But when

575
00:36:48.239 --> 00:36:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the commandment came, sin became alive, and I died. In

576
00:36:51.960 --> 00:36:54.400
<v Speaker 1>this commandment, which was the result in life, proved to

577
00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:57.639
<v Speaker 1>result in death for me, for sin taking an opportunity

578
00:36:57.639 --> 00:37:00.880
<v Speaker 1>through the commandment deceived me and through it killed me.

579
00:37:01.840 --> 00:37:05.159
<v Speaker 1>So then the law is holy, and the commandment is

580
00:37:05.199 --> 00:37:09.880
<v Speaker 1>holy and righteous and good. See the law. The law

581
00:37:10.199 --> 00:37:15.000
<v Speaker 1>is critical because the law is used by the Holy

582
00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:17.559
<v Speaker 1>Spirit to bring the conviction of the three things that

583
00:37:17.639 --> 00:37:22.679
<v Speaker 1>Holy Spirit said he would come to do, conviction of sin, judgment,

584
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:27.440
<v Speaker 1>and righteousness. And the law is one of the hinges

585
00:37:27.800 --> 00:37:32.039
<v Speaker 1>for the conviction of this Holy Spirit in culture. And

586
00:37:32.119 --> 00:37:34.000
<v Speaker 1>so we can't get into this thing.

587
00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:35.000
<v Speaker 2>We can't.

588
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:40.840
<v Speaker 1>We have to renounce this thing where yeah, yeah, we'll

589
00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:42.760
<v Speaker 1>just let them bring any law they want. We'll just

590
00:37:42.840 --> 00:37:46.440
<v Speaker 1>let them destroy every law that's good. It doesn't really matter.

591
00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:50.599
<v Speaker 1>You can't legislate morality anyway. Oh, no, no, we got

592
00:37:50.599 --> 00:37:53.639
<v Speaker 1>to renounce that. That's the working of Satan, that is

593
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:57.320
<v Speaker 1>the working of the lawless one, the one who works

594
00:37:57.400 --> 00:38:04.480
<v Speaker 1>in iniquity. Say with me, Holy Spirit, I embrace again

595
00:38:04.559 --> 00:38:10.760
<v Speaker 1>today the priestly life and the priestly role, and the

596
00:38:10.800 --> 00:38:16.480
<v Speaker 1>priestly anointing of the Church, the ecclesia. And I embrace

597
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:23.480
<v Speaker 1>also today the governmental role, the governmental call, the kingly call,

598
00:38:24.360 --> 00:38:30.760
<v Speaker 1>which includes the judicial, it includes the law giving, it

599
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:37.480
<v Speaker 1>includes the kingly executive leadership of the nation. I embrace

600
00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:42.039
<v Speaker 1>this today, Father, as part of my calling in Christ

601
00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:46.719
<v Speaker 1>in the Beloved, for You've made me to shoulder both

602
00:38:47.199 --> 00:38:53.400
<v Speaker 1>the priestly and the government. And I rejoice in this grace.

603
00:38:55.199 --> 00:38:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Say with me, I rejoice in this grace. I rejoice

604
00:39:00.079 --> 00:39:04.480
<v Speaker 1>in this grace. I read joice in this grace. I

605
00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:09.960
<v Speaker 1>read joice in this grace. Father, I repent on behalf

606
00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:15.280
<v Speaker 1>of the church. I repent on behalf of the church.

607
00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I renounce the shir king of our responsibility to carry

608
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.400
<v Speaker 1>the shoulder government. And I say no more, no more

609
00:39:29.119 --> 00:39:36.119
<v Speaker 1>does the church run from the anointing, the calling, and

610
00:39:36.199 --> 00:39:44.119
<v Speaker 1>the responsibility. In Jesus' name, everybody said, God, bless your church.
