THE LORD, AND THAT'S
THE BEST THANK YOU CAN DO?
00:01:14.87\00:01:17.21
I WOULD LIKE TO TALK
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HIM.
00:01:17.21\00:01:19.64
HE WAS BORN IN MIAMI, BUT
INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, A PERSON
00:01:19.64\00:01:24.61
BORN IN MIAMI,
MET JESUS IN ALASKA.
00:01:24.61\00:01:27.65
[ LAUGHTER ] >> IN A
SMALL GROUP BIBLE STUDY.
00:01:27.65\00:01:33.32
PRAISE THE LORD, WHEREVER
YOU ARE, YOU CAN MEET JESUS.
00:01:33.32\00:01:37.96
SINCE THEN THE LORD
HAS TRANSFORMED HIS LIFE.
00:01:37.96\00:01:40.33
HE IS A MIISTER OF THE GOSPEL,

PRESENTING THE TOPIC, IS
THE HOLY SPIRIT A PERSON?
00:01:50.97\00:01:55.08
IS THERE THE
HOLY SPIRIT A PERSON?
00:01:55.08\00:01:57.21
THERE IS A LOT OF
CONFUSION ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:01:57.21\00:02:00.25
AND I'M SO GLAD THAT WE HAVE THE
HOLY SCRIPTURES, AND PASTOR JAY
00:02:00.25\00:02:07.56

LIGHT THAT COMES FROM THE HOLY
00:02:07.56\00:02:12.49
SCRIPTURES. EVERY
WIND OF DOCTRINE IS
00:02:12.49\00:02:14.56
BLOWING, AND WE MUST
KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
00:02:14.56\00:02:17.90
IN A MOMENT HE WILL BE COMING
-FORWARD, AND AFTER WE PRAY, OUR
DEAR PASTOR CA MURRAY WILL BE
00:02:17.90\00:02:28.64
SINGING "HE LEADS ME HOME," AND
I KNOW YOU ARE BLESSED BY THAT
00:02:28.64\00:02:32.88
AS WELL, BECAUSE THIS WILL
BE A MESSAGE IN SONG AS WELL.

[ APPLAUSE ] >>
GOOD EVENING EVERYONE.
00:07:07.36\00:07:16.56
IT IS TRULY AN
HONOR TO BE HERE AT 3ABN.
00:07:16.56\00:07:19.73
HAVE YOU BEEN BLESSED? >> YES!
00:07:19.73\00:07:22.50
>> IT IS ALWAYS A BLESSING
TO COME TOGETHER AS GOD'S PEOPLE
00:07:22.50\00:07:25.61
AND STUDY HIS WORD. THIS
IS AN EXCITING THEME, AND
00:07:25.61\00:07:30.38
WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT
A HIGHLY MISUNDERSTOOD SUBJECT,
00:07:30.38\00:07:37.52
AND WE'RE GOING TO TY THE BEST
THAT WE CAN TO GO INTO SCRIPTURE
00:07:37.52\00:07:41.82
AND TO LET THE
BIBLE EXPLAIN ITSELF.
00:07:41.82\00:07:44.66
AMEN? I WANT TO
INVITE YOU TO BOW YOUR
00:07:44.66\00:07:47.40
HEADS WITH ME, AS WE PRAY RIGHT
BEFORE WE JUMP INTO OUR MESSAGE.
00:07:47.40\00:07:53.13
OUR FATHER, WE ARE HERE, BECAUSE
WE ARE HUNGRY AND THIRSTY FOR
00:07:53.13\00:07:57.94
RIGHT HOUSENESS.
WE'RE HERE, LORD, BECAUSE WE
00:07:57.94\00:08:01.48
HAVE A DESIRE TO
BE CLOSER TO YOU.
00:08:01.48\00:08:05.45
WE CRAVE YOUR SPIRITS. WE
ASK IN A SPECIAL WAY, LORD,
00:08:05.45\00:08:08.78
THAT YOU MAY SEND US
YOUR SPIRIT, AS WE DISCUSS THE
00:08:08.78\00:08:13.52
SUBJECT OF IS THE
HOLY SPIRIT A PERSON?
00:08:13.52\00:08:17.16
FATHER, WE ASK THAT YOU GUIDE
OUR MINDS AND THAT YOU LEAD US
00:08:17.16\00:08:22.13
INTO ALL TRUTH. WE
FLAY YOU HIDE THIS PREACHER
00:08:22.13\00:08:25.27
BEHIND THE CROSS, BECAUSE WE
HAVE COME HERE, NOT TO HEAR THE
00:08:25.27\00:08:28.34
WORDS OF A MAN, BUT WE HAVE
COME HERE TO HEAR YOUR VERY OWN
00:08:28.34\00:08:33.78
WORDS, AND IT IS FOR THIS REASON
THAT WE ASK IN JESUS NAME, LET
00:08:33.78\00:08:39.55
EVERYONE SAY, AMEN. NOW
HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE HAD THE
00:08:39.55\00:08:44.85
FRUSTRATING EXPERIENCE OF BEING
ON THE TELEPHONE EITHER TRYING
00:08:44.85\00:08:50.19
TO PAY YOUR BILL, TRYING TO GET
INFORMATION ON SOMETHING THAT
00:08:50.19\00:08:53.46
YOU PURCHASED, OR WHAT HAVE YOU?
YOU MAKE A PHONE CALL, AND THE
00:08:53.46\00:08:57.73
FIRST THING THAT
GREETS YOU IS, WHAT?
00:08:57.73\00:09:02.90
IS A MACHINE. RIGHT?
00:09:02.90\00:09:06.31
AND AFTER THE MACHINE GIVES A
VERY ELOQUENT INTRODUCTION, IT
00:09:06.31\00:09:12.38
BEGINS BY GIVING YOU SEVERAL
OPTIONS AS TO HOW TO PROCEED IN
00:09:12.38\00:09:16.75
YOUR -- IN YOUR PHONE CALL.
AND IT WILL GO SOMETHING LIKE
00:09:16.75\00:09:20.46
THIS, YOU KNOW, THANK YOU FOR
CALLING SUCH AND SUCH BUSINESS.
00:09:20.46\00:09:25.93
FOR BILLING
INFORMATION, PRESS 1.
00:09:25.93\00:09:31.67
FOR -- WHATEVER
OTHER DEPARTMENT, PRESS 2.
00:09:31.67\00:09:35.87
FOR -- AND IT WILL CONTINUE
UNTIL YOU FINALLY FIND THAT
00:09:35.87\00:09:40.14
PARTICULAR DEPARTMENT OR THAT
PARTICULAR SUBJECT THAT YOU WANT
00:09:40.14\00:09:42.91
TO DEAL WITH, AND THOSE OF YOU
WHO HAVE BEEN IN THAT SITUATION
00:09:42.91\00:09:46.65
HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE TIMES
WHERE YOU ARE TRYING -- YOU ARE
00:09:46.65\00:09:50.99
WAITING FOR THE PROPER
DEPARTMENTS, OR THE PROPER WORD
00:09:50.99\00:09:54.56
TO GIVE YOU THE QUEUE AS TO WHEN
TO PUSH, AND LOW AND BOW HOLD,
00:09:54.56\00:09:59.69
THEY DON'T
MENTION IT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:09:59.69\00:10:02.36
>> HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE
BEEN IN THAT SITUATION BEFORE.
00:10:02.36\00:10:05.40
AND THEN THE MACHINE IS ACTING
-pCONFUSED. THEY ARE SAYING, ARE
00:10:05.40\00:10:11.91
YOU THERE? [ LAUGHTER ]
>> IT'S LIKE, OF COURSE, I'M
00:10:11.91\00:10:15.38
HERE. ARE YOU THERE?
00:10:15.38\00:10:17.08
DID YOU NOT HEAR ME? AND
IT WILL GO BACK ALL THE WAY
00:10:17.08\00:10:20.18
TO THE BEGINNING.
FOR BILLING, PRESS 1.
00:10:20.18\00:10:22.85
AND YOU ARE LIKE OH, MAN.
BUT YOU ARE WAITING AGAIN.
00:10:22.85\00:10:26.79
IT'S LIKE MAYBE THE FIRST
TIME AROUND I WASN'T PAYING
00:10:26.79\00:10:32.53
ATTENTION. SO LET ME
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO
00:10:32.53\00:10:34.83
SEE IF I HEAR EXACTLY WHAT
I NEED TO HEAR SO I KNOW WHAT
00:10:34.83\00:10:39.13
BUTTON TO PRESS. AND IT
GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO
00:10:39.13\00:10:43.04
9, AND YOU REALIZE THAT
THEY DON'T GIVE YOU INCOME
00:10:43.04\00:10:49.81
-- ANYMORE
OPTIONS. SO WHAT DO YOU DO?
00:10:49.81\00:10:53.08
WHAT DO YOU DIAL?
AH, YOU GUYS ARE SMART.
00:10:53.08\00:10:55.92
YOU GUYS ARE VERY SMART.
NORMALLY YOU DIAL ZERO, AND
00:10:55.92\00:11:01.16
NORMALLY, WHAT HAPPENS? IT
WILL GO STRAIGHT TO A PERSON,
00:11:01.16\00:11:04.79
RIGHT? WELL, SOME
OF THESE COMPANIES
00:11:04.79\00:11:07.86
ARE GETTING VERY CLEVER, BECAUSE
IF YOU PUSH ZERO, IT WILL TAKE
00:11:07.86\00:11:11.77
YOU TO, GUESS WHAT?
ANOTHER MACHINE, AND IT
00:11:11.77\00:11:16.24
WILL -- IT WILL BEGIN KIND
OF DANCING AROUND, ASKING YOU
00:11:16.24\00:11:20.21
DIFFERENT QUESTIONS.
THAT IS VERY FRUSTRATING.
00:11:20.21\00:11:23.78
AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT
WILL SANCTIFY YOUR CHRISTIAN
00:11:23.78\00:11:29.38
EXPERIENCE -- [ LAUGHTER ]
00:11:29.38\00:11:30.92
>> -- NEVER MIND
DRIVING ON THE ROAD, RIGHT?
00:11:30.92\00:11:33.66
BECAUSE TRY TO NAVIGATE THROUGH
THESE AUTOMATED MACHINES.
00:11:33.66\00:11:38.13
WOW, SO FRUSTRATING.
AND FINALLY WHEN YOU GET
00:11:38.13\00:11:41.13
THROUGH, IF YOU GET THROUGH, YOU
HEAR SOMEBODY'S VOICE, AND THEY
00:11:41.13\00:11:44.87
SAY, HI, MY NAME IS SO
AND SO. HOW MAY I HELP YOU?
00:11:44.87\00:11:49.24
THERE IS A SIGH OF
RELIEF ON YOUR END, RIGHT?
00:11:49.24\00:11:52.84
AND YOU BEGIN TO TALK. WHY?
00:11:52.84\00:11:56.48
THE REASON WHY YOU BEGIN TO TALK
IS BECAUSE YOU CANNOT COMPARE A
00:11:56.48\00:12:01.68
MACHINE TO AN
ACTUAL PERSON. WHY?
00:12:01.68\00:12:05.22
BECAUSE A MACHINE
DOESN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND YOU.
00:12:05.22\00:12:11.09
IT'S JUST REGURGITATING PROGRAM
INFORMATION, WHEEAS AN ACTUAL
00:12:11.09\00:12:15.56
PERSON CAN LISTEN TO YOU, AND
RESPOND TO YOU, AND THERE CAN BE
00:12:15.56\00:12:21.17
ACTUAL INTERACTION AND
CONVERSATION AND EXCHANGE.
00:12:21.17\00:12:26.98
YES? SO THE
REASON WHY THE SUBJECT
00:12:26.98\00:12:31.25
OF -- IS THE HOLY
SPIRIT A PERSON IS SO CRITICAL?
00:12:31.25\00:12:34.38
IS BECAUSE DEEP DOWN IN THE
HUMAN HEART, DOESN'T MATTER WHAT
00:12:34.38\00:12:38.39
GENERATION YOU REPRESENT,
DOESN'T MATTER WHAT ETHNICITY
00:12:38.39\00:12:43.32
YOU REPRESENT, DEEP DOWN WHAT
MAKES A HUMAN BEING, A HUMAN
00:12:43.32\00:12:49.93
BEING IS WE CRAVE RELATIONSHIPS.
WE CRAVE THE ABILITY TO CONNECT
00:12:49.93\00:12:55.17
AND TO EXCHANGE. AND IF
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT A
00:12:55.17\00:13:01.21
PERSON, THEN WE ARE IN A VERY
COMPLICATED SCENARIO, BECAUSE
WE-pHERE ON EARTH -- NOT ONLY DO
00:13:01.21\00:13:09.15
WE NEED INFORMATION, BUT WE NEED
SOMEONE TO MENTOR US AND GUIDE
00:13:09.15\00:13:14.06
US IN THE PROCESS OF
ACCEPTING THAT INFORMATION.
00:13:14.06\00:13:17.83
DO YOU UNDERSTAND? SO
THIS IS A BIG, BIG ISSUE, AND
00:13:17.83\00:13:21.20
THERE'S A LOT OF CONFUSION IN
THE I HAVES -- DISCUSSIONS THAT
00:13:21.20\00:13:28.44
ARE GOING AROUND
REGARDING THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:13:28.44\00:13:30.74
BEFORE WE PROCEED, WE NEED TO
UNDERSTAND ONE VERY SIMPLE YET
00:13:30.74\00:13:34.78
PROFOUND THING, AND THAT IS, THE
HOLY SPIRIT, GOD THE SON, AND
00:13:34.78\00:13:42.02
GOD THE FATHER,
ARE VERY BIG. >> AMEN!
00:13:42.02\00:13:46.59
>> AMEN? >> AMEN.
00:13:46.59\00:13:48.76
>> OKAY. THIS IS
PROPOSITION NUMBER 1.
00:13:48.76\00:13:53.70
PROPOSITION NUMBER 2 IS, OUR
BRAINS -- SOME OF YOU KNOW WHERE
00:13:53.70\00:13:58.07
I'M GOING -- [ LAUGHTER ]
00:13:58.07\00:13:59.87
>> -- ARE VERY LITTLE. OKAY?
00:13:59.87\00:14:02.14
NOW THAT DOESN'T -- THAT DOESN'T
MEAN THAT BECAUSE GOD IS VERY
00:14:02.14\00:14:06.78
BIG AND OUR BRAINS ARE
VERY LITTLE, THAT WE PRETTY MUCH
00:14:06.78\00:14:13.52
EXCUSE OURSELVES FROM SEARCHING
AND FROM INVESTIGATING AND FROM
00:14:13.52\00:14:17.12
DIGGING. I'M
NOT SUGGESTING THAT.
00:14:17.12\00:14:18.99
WHAT I AM SUGGESTING IS THAT
THERE'S ALMOST A FRUSTRATION
00:14:18.99\00:14:25.43
WHEN WE DON'T HAVE EVERYTHING
FIGURED OUT.-AND WHEN WE TALK
00:14:25.43\00:14:30.60
ABOUT GOD, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
THE FATHER, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
00:14:30.60\00:14:34.70
THE SON, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE
HOLY SPIRIT, WE NEED TO
RECOGNIZE THAT WE'RE
00:14:34.70\00:14:38.44
PUNY IN
CONTRAST TO THE GOD HEAD.
00:14:38.44\00:14:41.51
THEREFORE WE HAVE TO APPROACH
THE SUBJECT OF THE GOD HEAD, THE
00:14:41.51\00:14:47.22
SUBJECT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
WITH A LARG DOSE OF HUMILITY.
00:14:47.22\00:14:51.39
>> AMEN. >> AND I
THNK THE FUNDAMENTAL
00:14:51.39\00:14:55.46
ERROR OR ISSUE AT THE -- AT THE
FOUNDATION OF THIS CONVERSATION
00:14:55.46\00:15:01.30
THAT PROBABLY LEADS PEOPLE TO
FALSE CONCLUSIONS IS NOT HAVING
00:15:01.30\00:15:08.24
ENOUGH HUMILITY TO UNDERSTAND
THAT, HEY, I'M NOT GOING TO HAVE
00:15:08.24\00:15:12.04
EVERYTHING
NECESSARILY FIGURED OUT.
00:15:12.04\00:15:13.98
AND THAT'S THE
BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT ETERNITY.
00:15:13.98\00:15:17.75
AMEN? THE BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT
00:15:17.75\00:15:19.28
ETERNITY IS THAT WE HAVE ALL
OF ETERNITY TO GET CLOSER AND
00:15:19.28\00:15:22.72
CLOSER AND TO
LEARN MORE AND MORE.
00:15:22.72\00:15:24.59
SO WE DO NEED TO
HAVE A CERTAIN BALANCE.
00:15:24.59\00:15:27.92
I MEAN IF WE DON'T HAVE THINGS
SUCH AS QUANTUM PHYSICS FIGURED
00:15:27.92\00:15:33.06
OUT, RIGHT? WHAT
MAKES US THINK THAT WE'RE
00:15:33.06\00:15:36.23
GOING TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND
EVERY MINUTE DETAIL ABOUT THE
00:15:36.23\00:15:39.73
GOD HEAD? THAT IS
QUITE -- THAT'S A BIT
00:15:39.73\00:15:42.90
AMBITIOUS ON OUR END. NOW
THE BEAUTIFUL THING IS THAT
00:15:42.90\00:15:45.11
EVEN THOUGH WE'RE NOT GOING
TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND EVERY
00:15:45.11\00:15:49.14
PARTICULAR, THE BIBLE GIVES
US ENOUGH DATA, WHERE WE CAN
00:15:49.14\00:15:54.02
CONFIDENTLY EMBRACE, ACCEPT,
AND BELIEVE CERTAIN THINGS.
00:15:54.02\00:15:58.49
AMEN? SO WE'RE
NOT KIND OF JUST LEFT
00:15:58.49\00:16:01.79
IN LONELY WATERS, BUT
WE'RE ACTUALLY GIVEN ENOUGH TO
00:16:01.79\00:16:05.66
UNDERSTAND WHAT
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT.
00:16:05.66\00:16:08.40
AMEN? AND THAT'S
KIND OF WHAT WE'RE
00:16:08.40\00:16:10.20
GOING TO BE DEALING WITH
HERE. FOR STARTERS, I THINK IT'S
00:16:10.20\00:16:13.47
HEALTHY TO
DEFINE THE TERMS, RIGHT?
00:16:13.47\00:16:15.87
OUR MESSAGE IS ENTITLED
IS THE HOLY SPIRIT A PERSON?
00:16:15.87\00:16:19.84
WELL, TO UNDERSTAND
THAT QUESTION AND TO GIVE A
00:16:19.84\00:16:24.21
SATISFACTORY ANSWER, WE NEED TO
FIGURE OUT WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A
00:16:24.21\00:16:27.62
PERSON, OR TO HAVE PERSONALITY.
AND PERSONALITY, OF COURSE, THE
00:16:27.62\00:16:33.09
ROOT WORD FOR
PERSONALITY IS PERSON.
00:16:33.09\00:16:36.16
SO NOT A VERY PROFOUND
QUESTION. BUT PERSONALITY IN THE
00:16:36.16\00:16:39.93
DICTIONARY IS DEFINED BY A
PERSON AS AN EMBODIMENT OF A
00:16:39.93\00:16:46.53
COLLECTION OF QUALITIES.
THE QUALITY OF BEING A PERSON
00:16:46.53\00:16:53.07
EXISTENT AS A SELF CONSCIOUS
INDIVIDUAL WITH PERSONAL
00:16:53.07\00:16:58.78
IDENTITY, THE
ESSENTIAL CHARACTER OF A PERSON.
00:16:58.78\00:17:01.92
SO THIS IS -- WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
PERSON, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
00:17:01.92\00:17:06.19
PERSONHOOD, PERSONALITY.
THESE ARE KIND OF THE TERMS THAT
00:17:06.19\00:17:08.99
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO
WHAT WE'RE GOING TO SUGGEST
00:17:08.99\00:17:11.23
IN OUR STUDY IS THAT THE
HOLY SPIRIT IS MORE THAN JUST A
00:17:11.23\00:17:16.83
FORCE. >> AMEN?
00:17:16.83\00:17:17.57
>> AMEN? >> AMEN.
00:17:17.57\00:17:19.07
>> IS MORE THAN JUST
A POWER OR AN ESSENCE.
00:17:19.07\00:17:21.97
AND WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DISCOVER
IS THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT CAN BE A
00:17:21.97\00:17:26.44
PERSON, EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T
HAVE ALL OF THE DATA AS FAR AS
00:17:26.44\00:17:30.38
THE SPECIFIC DETAILS AS TO
WHETHER OR NOT HE ACTUALLY HAS A
00:17:30.38\00:17:34.28
PHYSICAL BODY.
THIS IS WHERE THE BIG
00:17:34.28\00:17:37.29
MISUNDERSTANDING COMES.
MANY PEOPLE SAY, WELL, THE HOLY
00:17:37.29\00:17:40.02
SPIRIT IS A SPIRIT, MEANING
THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE A BODY.
00:17:40.02\00:17:44.16
AND THEN THIS IS WHERE THE
DISCUSSIONS KIND OF EVOLVE, AND
00:17:44.16\00:17:48.06
THEY GET A BIT -- A BIT FANCY,
AND THEN WE START GETTING INTO
00:17:48.06\00:17:52.43
SOME DANGEROUS GROUNDS.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSON.
00:17:52.43\00:17:57.87
AND IN THE DICTIONARY A PERSON
IS DEFINED AS A SELF CONSCIOUS
00:17:57.87\00:18:05.38
RATIONAL BEING. A
PERSON IS SOMEONE, A BEING
00:18:05.38\00:18:08.62
THAT HAS CERTAIN CAPACITIES,
OR ATTRIBUTES CONSTITUTING
00:18:08.62\00:18:14.82
PERSONHOOD. NOW WHAT
I FIND INTERESTING IS
00:18:14.82\00:18:16.79
THAT NONE OF THE DEFINITIONS
WE JUST READ HAVE MENTIONED
00:18:16.79\00:18:20.20
ANYTHING ABOUT A PHYSICAL BODY.
THE DEAF SITUATION -- DEFINITION
00:18:20.20\00:18:25.97
OF A CERTAIN IS A SELF CONSCIOUS
RATIONAL BEING, A BEING THAT HAS
00:18:25.97\00:18:31.01
CERTAIN ATTRIBUTES
CONSTITUTING PERSONHOOD.
00:18:31.01\00:18:35.58
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF A PERSON
EXPERIENCES A VERY TRAUMATIC
00:18:35.58\00:18:39.95
ACCIDENT, AND THEY PRETTY
MUCH LOSE ALL OF THEIR LIMBS?
00:18:39.95\00:18:43.75
THAT WOULD BE A
TRAGIC EXPERIENCE.
00:18:43.75\00:18:47.99
DOES THAT PERSON BECOME
DEMOTED IN THEIR PERSONHOOD?
00:18:47.99\00:18:51.56
OR ARE THEY STILL A
PERSON? >> STILL A PERSON.
00:18:51.56\00:18:56.87
>> WHY? BECAUSE
BEING A PERSON DOESN'T
00:18:56.87\00:19:01.54
NECESSARILY DEPEND ON
FINGERS, EARS, AND TOES.
00:19:01.54\00:19:06.54
AMEN? IT ACTUALLY DEPENDS ON
00:19:06.54\00:19:09.84
PERSONALITY, ON CONSCIOUSNESS,
ON RATIONALITY, AND ON HAVING A
00:19:09.84\00:19:14.38
CERTAIN CAPACITY AND
CAPABILITIES THAT MAKE UP A
00:19:14.38\00:19:17.79
PERSON. SO JUST
BECAUSE A PERSON MAY NOT
00:19:17.79\00:19:21.56
HAVE CERTAIN SPECIFIC BODY
PARTS, IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT
00:19:21.56\00:19:24.99
THAT PERSON
CEASES TO BE A PERSON.
00:19:24.99\00:19:26.43
AND THIS HELPS US UNDERSTAND THE
SUBJECT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT QUITE
00:19:26.43\00:19:31.40
POWERFULLY, BECAUSE IT SHOWS US
THAT IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN
00:19:31.40\00:19:34.40
THAT THE SPIRIT HAS
TO HAVE A PHYSICAL BODY.
00:19:34.40\00:19:37.74
PHYSICAL FORM IS NOT
NECESSARILY FOR PERSONHOOD.
00:19:37.74\00:19:42.11
PERSONALITY HAS MORE TO DO WITH
THE CHARACTER THAN THE BODY.
00:19:42.11\00:19:46.08
GRAB YOUR BIBLES. I
WANT TO INVITE YOU TO GO WITH
00:19:46.08\00:19:49.48
ME TO THE GOSPEL
OF JOHN. JOHN 14.
00:19:49.48\00:19:54.96
IF YOU READ JOHN 14, YOU READ
14, 15, AND 16, AND 17, IT'S A
00:19:54.96\00:20:01.50
VERY LONG DISCOURSE THAT JESUS
IS GIVING TO HIS DISCIPLES,
00:20:01.50\00:20:05.20
REGARDING MANY THINGS,
INCLUDING THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:20:05.20\00:20:08.40
NOW WE DONE HAVE THE TIME TO GO
THROUGH EVERY SINGLE VERSE, BUT
00:20:08.40\00:20:12.91
WE WANT TO AT LEAST GET
THE CORE OF JOHN 14 AND ONWARD.
00:20:12.91\00:20:17.45
JOHN 14, AND WHEN YOU
ARE THERE, PLEASE SAY AMEN.
00:20:17.45\00:20:20.28
>> AMEN. >> THE
BIBLE SAYS IN JOHN 14:16,
00:20:20.28\00:20:26.12
IT SAYS AND I WILL PRAY THE
FATHER AND HE WILL GIVE YOU,
00:20:26.12\00:20:33.60
WHAT? ANOTHER
HELPER THAT HE MAY ABIDE
00:20:33.60\00:20:37.33
WITH YOU FOREVER. OKAY.
00:20:37.33\00:20:38.90
WE'RE GOING TO STOP RIGHT THERE.
SO THE BIBLE HERE TELL US IN
00:20:38.90\00:20:43.81
VERSE 16, THAT JESUS IS PRAYING
TO THE FATHER THAT HE WILL GIVE
00:20:43.81\00:20:48.38
HIS DISCIPLES ANOTHER HELPER.
THE INTERESTING THING IS THE
00:20:48.38\00:20:54.25
WORD ANOTHER THERE IS ACTUALLY
USED IN THE CONTEXT OF ANOTHER
00:20:54.25\00:20:59.09
OF THE SAME KIND. LET
ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.
00:20:59.09\00:21:01.99
LET'S SAY I'M -- I'M A -- A NICE
VEGETARIAN RESTAURANT, AND I EAT
00:21:01.99\00:21:08.56
JUST A SLAMMING
VEGGIE BURGER, RIGHT?
00:21:08.56\00:21:12.20
AND I SAY, I WOULD LIKE ANOTHER.
AND THE WAITER OR THE WAITRESS
00:21:12.20\00:21:17.77
COMES AND THEY BRING
ME NACHOS. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:21:17.77\00:21:20.94
>> I'M GOING TO BE LIKE, I'M
SORRY, THERE MUST HAVE BEEN A
00:21:20.94\00:21:25.95
MISFIRE IN COMMUNICATION.
I WANTED ANOTHER OF THE SAME
00:21:25.95\00:21:29.42
THING, RIGHT? SO I
WASN'T REFERRING TO NACHOS.
00:21:29.42\00:21:32.39
I WAS REFERRING TO
THE VEGGIE BURGER, RIGHT?
00:21:32.39\00:21:35.86
SO THE CONTEXT IN
JOHN 14 IS THE SAME.
00:21:35.86\00:21:38.86
WHEN JESUS SAYS I WILL SEND
ANOTHER, WHAT HE IS SAYING, IS
00:21:38.86\00:21:42.10
HE IS SAYING I WILL SEND
ANOTHER THAT IS IDENTICAL TO ME.
00:21:42.10\00:21:49.04
SO LET'S -- LET'S TAKE
THIS ONE POINT AT A TIME.
00:21:49.04\00:21:51.91
JESUS IS PRAYING TO THE FATHER,
AND HE IS SAYING, I'M GOING TO
00:21:51.91\00:21:55.61
ASK THE FATHER TO SEND YOU
ALL ANOTHER HELPER JUST LIKE ME.
00:21:55.61\00:22:01.12
QUESTION? WAS JESUS A PERSON?
00:22:01.12\00:22:03.82
>> YES. >> ARE YOU
FOLLOWING MY TRAIN OF
00:22:03.82\00:22:07.19
THOUGHT HERE? SO
IF JESUS WAS A PERSON,
00:22:07.19\00:22:10.39
THEREFORE, AND JESUS SAYS I
WILL PRAY THAT GOD WILL SEND YOU
00:22:10.39\00:22:14.73
ANOTHER IDENTICAL TO
ME, THAT MEANS THAT WHOEVER
00:22:14.73\00:22:17.93
THIS -- ANOTHER HELPER,
OR COMFORT, DEPENDING ON THE
00:22:17.93\00:22:24.44
TRANSLATION, WHOEVER THAT
SECOND PERSON HAS TO BE WHAT?
00:22:24.44\00:22:27.31
HAS TO BE A PERSON. WHY?
00:22:27.31\00:22:29.84
BECAUSE THE FIRST WAS A PERSON.
BECAUSE JESUS WAS A PERSON.
00:22:29.84\00:22:33.98
SO IF JESUS IS GOING TO SEND
ANOTHER HELPER, AND THAT WORD
00:22:33.98\00:22:37.99
ANOTHER IS BASICALLY TALKING
ABOUT THE SAME TYPE, THE SAME
00:22:37.99\00:22:41.46
KIND, WE'RE REALLY
LOOKING FOR A PERSON.
00:22:41.46\00:22:43.76
WE'RE LOOKING FOR A PERSON THAT
CAN ACTUALLY COMMUNICATE, THAT
00:22:43.76\00:22:47.30
CAN ACTUALLY TALK.
THAT CAN ACTUALLY LISTEN.
00:22:47.30\00:22:51.07
OTHERWISE JESUS WOULD HAVE
CHANGED HIS WORDING, AND THAT'S
-VERY, VERY IMPORTANT TO
00:22:51.07\00:22:55.97
UNDERSTAND.
LET'S CONTINUE READING.
00:22:55.97\00:22:58.01
VERSE 16,JESUS PRAYING TO THE
FATHER, HE SAYS I WILL PRAY THAT
00:22:58.01\00:23:01.81
THE FATHER WILL SEND ANOTHER
HELPER, JUST LIKE ME, THAT HE
00:23:01.81\00:23:06.05
MAY ABIDE WITH YOU FOREVER.
AND THEN HE EXPLAINS WHO IT IS.
00:23:06.05\00:23:09.72
VERSE 17, VERY SIMPLE. WHO?
00:23:09.72\00:23:13.02
THE SPIRITS OF TRUTH.
WHOM THE WORLD CANNOT RECEIVE,
00:23:13.02\00:23:17.03
BECAUSE IT NEITHER SEES HIM NOR
KNOWS HIM, BUT NOW KNOW HIM, FOR
00:23:17.03\00:23:22.76
HE DWELLS WITH
YOU, AND WILL BE IN YOU.
00:23:22.76\00:23:26.47
I BELIEVE THAT'S A
REFERENCE TO PENTECOST.
00:23:26.47\00:23:29.34
RIGHT NOW HE IS
DWELLING WITH US.
00:23:29.34\00:23:31.87
BUT NOT -- IN THE NOT SO DISTANT
FUTURE, HE IS GOING TO BE IN
00:23:31.87\00:23:36.41
INSIDE OF YOU. AND IN
VERSE 18, HE SAYS I WILL
00:23:36.41\00:23:40.15
NOT LEAVE YOU'RE
FANS. I WILL COME TO YOU.
00:23:40.15\00:23:44.19
SO JESUS IS
SPEAKING TO HIS DISCIPLES.
00:23:44.19\00:23:46.72
HE IS TELLING HIM ABOUT THE
COMING OF THE COMFORTER, THE
00:23:46.72\00:23:50.93
COMING OF THE HELPER. AND
HE IS SAYING THE HELPER IS
00:23:50.93\00:23:56.23
GOING TO BE JUST LIKE ME.
I'M NOT GOING TO LEAVE YOU
00:23:56.23\00:24:06.47
ORPHANS. AND
THAT MEANS BEREAVED OF
00:24:06.47\00:24:11.21
PARENTS. SO WHOEVER
THE SECOND PARENT IS,
00:24:11.21\00:24:13.18
HAS TO BE A PERSON, BECAUSE
IF THE SECOND PARENT IS JUST AN
00:24:13.18\00:24:18.85
ENERGY, OR AN ESSENCE, OR A
FORCE, THEN IT WOULDN'T FILL
00:24:18.85\00:24:23.22
THAT VACUUM, IT WOULDN'T
FILL THAT VOID PROPERLY.
00:24:23.22\00:24:26.63
DOES THAT MAKE
SENSE? IT'S LIKE TAKING YOUR
00:24:26.63\00:24:30.40
GRANDCHILDREN OR CHILDREN,
TAKING THEM TO THE BABYSITTER,
00:24:30.40\00:24:33.20
YOU TAKE THEM TO LIKE --
TO THE AQUARIUM OR SOMETHING.
00:24:33.20\00:24:37.84
RIGHT? THAT
WOULDN'T MAKE A WHOLE LOT
00:24:37.84\00:24:40.21
OF SENSE. BECAUSE
THOSE IN THE AQUARIUM,
00:24:40.21\00:24:43.88
THE ANIMALS IN THE AQUARIUM,
ARE NOT FIT TO LOOK AFTER YOUR
00:24:43.88\00:24:47.95
CHILD. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?
00:24:47.95\00:24:50.15
SO JESUS IS SAYING I'M NOT
GOING TO LEAVE YOU ORPHANS.
00:24:50.15\00:25:03.03
. BECAUSE THE SECOND HAS ALL OF
00:25:03.03\00:25:04.83
THE CAPACITY I HAVE TO
PARENT YOU, TO MENTOR YOU.
00:25:04.83\00:25:09.20
AND A LOT MORE. JESUS
IS SAYING THE COMFORTER,
00:25:09.20\00:25:13.11
THE HELPER THAT COMES IS
GOING TO BE JUST LIKE ME.
00:25:13.11\00:25:16.18
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I THINK
THIS -- THIS IS ENOUGH EVIDENCE
00:25:16.18\00:25:20.82
TO -- TO SAFELY BEGIN TO
UNDERSTAND, WELL, WAIT A MINUTE.
00:25:20.82\00:25:23.35
HE HAS TO BE A PERSON.
BUT IT ACTUALLY GETS EVEN MORE
00:25:23.35\00:25:27.62
CLEAR ONCE YOU CONTINUE.
IF YOU CONTINUE WITH ME.
00:25:27.62\00:25:30.53
GO TO -- WE'RE DOWN IN
VERSE -- IN CHAPTER 14.
00:25:30.53\00:25:35.96
JUMP WITH ME TO VERSE 26 OF
THE SAME CHAPTER, AND WE'LL JUM
00:25:35.96\00:25:40.84
OVER TO CHAPTER 15 IN
A MINUTE. IT SAYS BUT THE
00:25:40.84\00:25:45.61
HELPER -- CAPITAL H IN THE
NEW KING JAMES, SAME DISCUSSION.
00:25:45.61\00:25:51.45
THE HELPER, THE HOLY SPIRIT.
SEE NOW WE DON'T HAVE TO GUESS
00:25:51.45\00:25:56.85
WHO THE HELPER IS. WHOM
THE FATHER WILL SEND IN MY
00:25:56.85\00:26:01.76
NAME. HE WILL DO WHAT?
00:26:01.76\00:26:03.43
HE WILL WHAT? HE WILL TEACH
YOU ALL THINGS AND-BRING TO YOUR
00:26:03.43\00:26:08.20
REMEMBRANCE ALL THINGS THAT
I SAID TO YOU. THIS IS PRETTY
00:26:08.20\00:26:11.53
AWESOME. SO JESUS HERE IS
SAYING THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT, THE
00:26:11.53\00:26:17.81
HELPER, WILL COME, AND HE WILL
DO TWO THINGS, AT LEAST IN THE
00:26:17.81\00:26:21.71
PASSAGE. HE TEACH YOU.
NOW WHAT IS REQUIRED TO TEACH?
00:26:21.71\00:26:24.55
WHAT DO YOU NEED IN
ORDER TO BE ABLE TO TEACH?
00:26:24.55\00:26:28.82
YOU NEED TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE TO BE
ABLE TO DELIVER THAT KNOWLEDGE
00:26:28.82\00:26:32.52
TO YOUR STUDENTS.
WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED?
00:26:32.52\00:26:36.32
YOU NEED EXPERIENCE. VERY GOOD.
00:26:36.32\00:26:37.96
YOU NEED EXPERIENCE.
YOU ALSO NEED THE ABILITY TO
00:26:37.96\00:26:41.66
COMMUNICATE, BECAUSE IF YOU
HAV ALL OF THE KNOWLEDGE IN THE
00:26:41.66\00:26:44.13
WORLD, BUT YOU CAN'T SHARE
THAT KNOWLEDGE, GUESS WHAT?
00:26:44.13\00:26:49.64
YOU BECOME VERY
INEFFECTIVE TEACHER.
00:26:49.64\00:26:52.74
DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH YOU
KNOW, BUT IF YOU CAN'T DELIVER
00:26:52.74\00:26:55.51
THAT INFORMATION TO YOUR
STUDENTS, THEN IT'S PRETTY MUCH
00:26:55.51\00:26:59.95
COUNTERPRODUCTIVE. SO
HERE WE HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:26:59.95\00:27:02.45
AS A TEACHER, AND NOT ONLY A
TEACHER, BUT HE BRINGS TO THE
00:27:02.45\00:27:10.99
REMEMBRANCE EVERYTHING
THAT JESUS HAS ALREADY SHARED.
00:27:10.99\00:27:14.60
IN OTHER WORDS THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS A VERY -- IS A VERY
00:27:14.60\00:27:19.90
RESPECTFUL BEING.
IT'S A VERY -- IT'S A VERY
00:27:19.90\00:27:24.54
HUMBLE BEING. BECAUSE
THE HOLY SPIRIT DOESN'T
00:27:24.54\00:27:27.91
GO IN THERE, KIND OF SHOWING ALL
OF THE ABILITIES THAT THE HOLY
00:27:27.91\00:27:35.55
SPIRIT HAS, WHICH LATER ON,
WE'LL DISCOVER THAT THE HOLY
00:27:35.55\00:27:39.65
SPIRIT HAS CERTAIN ABILITIES
THAT CHRIST DOES NOT HAVE.
00:27:39.65\00:27:42.29
THAT'S WHY HE SAYS IT IS
EXPEEDANCE, IT IS TO YOUR
00:27:42.29\00:27:48.53
ADVANTAGE THAT I GO.
BECAUSE IF I GO, WHO CANNOT COME
00:27:48.53\00:27:51.77
IN THE HOLY
SPIRIT CANNOT BE HERE.
00:27:51.77\00:27:54.04
TO JESUS WAS CONFINED TO
ONE PARTICULAR GEOGRAPHICAL
00:27:54.04\00:27:58.61
LOCATION, BECAUSE HE
TOOK THE BODY OF A MAN.
00:27:58.61\00:28:02.91
BUT THE SPIRIT STILL HAD
THE ABILITY OF BEING EVERYWHERE.
00:28:02.91\00:28:08.32
NOW CAN WE EXPLAIN THAT? NO.
00:28:08.32\00:28:11.22
WHY? BECAUSE GOD
IS VERY BIG, AND?
00:28:11.22\00:28:14.36
OUR BRAINS ARE VERY
SMALL. AND THAT'S OKAY.
00:28:14.36\00:28:17.16
AMEN? >> AMEN.
00:28:17.16\00:28:18.09
>> WE DON'T HAVE TO FIGURE IT
ALL OUT, BUT WE HAVE TO AT LEAST
00:28:18.09\00:28:22.83
GET A FEEL, AND THE FEEL THAT
WE HAVE SO FAR IS THAT THE HOLY
00:28:22.83\00:28:29.17
SPIRIT DOESN'T WALK
AROUND WITH HIS RESUME.
00:28:29.17\00:28:36.08
THE HOLY SPIRIT -- ALL HE
DOES IS HE BRINGS BACK TO THE
00:28:36.08\00:28:42.68
REMEMBRANCE OF THE APOSTLES, OF
THE DISCIPLES, OF THE FOLLOWERS
00:28:42.68\00:28:46.86
OF JESUS, ALL OF THE THINGS
THAT JESUS HAS ALREADY SHARED.
00:28:46.86\00:28:50.13
AND IT TAKES A LOT OF HUMILITY.
AND WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK TO
00:28:50.13\00:28:54.73
THIS CONCEPT OF HUMILITY, WHICH
I THINK IS A BEAUTIFUL CONCEPT.
00:28:54.73\00:28:59.13
NOW JUMP WITH ME TO
CHAPTER 15 AND VERSE 26.
00:28:59.13\00:29:03.97
JOHN CHAPTER 15:26, JESUS SAYS
BUT WHEN THE HELPER COMES, WHOM
00:29:03.97\00:29:11.55
I SHALL SEND TO YOU FROM THE
FATHER, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, WHO
00:29:11.55\00:29:16.85
PRECEDES FROM THE
FATHER, HE WILL TESTIFY ON WHAT?
00:29:16.85\00:29:20.49
HE WILL TESTIFY OF ME.
JOHN 14 SAYS THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:29:20.49\00:29:24.03
WILL BRING BACK TO YOUR
REMEMBRANCE ALL OF THE THINGS
00:29:24.03\00:29:26.53
THAT I SHARED. HERE WE
-- HERE IT REITERATES IT
00:29:26.53\00:29:30.63
WITH DIFFERENT USAGE OF WORDING,
AND IT SAYS THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:29:30.63\00:29:35.20
TESTIFIES OF JESUS. THE
ROLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS
00:29:35.20\00:29:38.97
TO MAGNIFY JESUS. THAT'S IT.
00:29:38.97\00:29:41.38
THE ROLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
IS TO EXALT JESUS SO MUCH, THAT
00:29:41.38\00:29:45.81
IT'S ALMOST AS MANY PEOPLE DON'T
KNOW THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS
00:29:45.81\00:29:51.92
THERE. THAT'S PRETTY POWERFUL.
00:29:51.92\00:29:53.92
NOW WHY IS THAT POWERFUL?
AND WHY SHOULD WE FOCUS ON THAT?
00:29:53.92\00:29:58.09
BECAUSE A LOT OF
PEOPLE GET FRUSTRATED.
00:29:58.09\00:30:00.53
THEY ARE TRYING TO STUDY THE
SUBJECT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND
00:30:00.53\00:30:03.47
THEY GET FRUSTRATED, BECAUSE
THEY ARE LIKE WHERE IS HE?
00:30:03.47\00:30:06.84
IN THE OLD TEST YOU SEE A LOT OF
REFERENCES TO THE FATHER AND THE
00:30:06.84\00:30:11.41
SON, THE SON AND THE FATHER,
AND YOU ARE LIKE WHAT ABOUT THE
00:30:11.41\00:30:15.04
SPIRIT? AND I FEEL
LIKE GOD -- IN -- IN
00:30:15.04\00:30:19.41
HIS INFINITE WISDOM HAS
PURPOSEFULLY LEFT A LOT OF
00:30:19.41\00:30:24.12
MYSTERY BEHIND THE TEACHING
OF THE SPIRIT, AND NOT JUST
00:30:24.12\00:30:28.66
MYSTERY, BUT ALSO HUMILITY.
BECAUSE I THINK THAT THERE'S
00:30:28.66\00:30:32.59
ENOUGH PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD THAT
ARE TRYING TO ELBOW THEIR WAY
00:30:32.59\00:30:37.03
INTO THE LIMELIGHT. A
LOT OF PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING TO
00:30:37.03\00:30:40.20
GET RECOGNITION,
POPULARITY, FAME.
00:30:40.20\00:30:43.24
BY THE WAY THIS HAPPENED EVEN
WITH THE DISCIPLES, AT THE LAST
00:30:43.24\00:30:51.55
SUPPER, THEY WERE FIGHTING
AND ARGUING AS TO WHO WAS THE
00:30:51.55\00:30:54.92
GREATEST. SO THIS
IS NOT ANYTHING NEW.
00:30:54.92\00:30:56.89
BUT THE POINT IS THAT WHILE
EVERYBODY IS TRYING TO GET THE
00:30:56.89\00:31:00.19
ATTENTION AND POPULARITY, THE
HOLY SPIRIT HAS THE ABILITY TO
00:31:00.19\00:31:02.92
DO A LOT OF THINGS THAT
WE CAN'T, AND HE IS SHHHHH.
00:31:02.92\00:31:07.46
AND HE IS WORKING 24 HOURS A
DAY, NOT SLEEPING, AND HE IS NOT
00:31:07.46\00:31:12.97
PROMOTING HIMSELF, ALL HE
DOES IS HE LIFTS UP JESUS.
00:31:12.97\00:31:16.07
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE NEED
TO KIND OF ADOPT THAT SIMILAR
00:31:16.07\00:31:20.54
BEHAVIOR. AMEN?
00:31:20.54\00:31:21.81
I THINK WE WOULD HAVE SO MUCH
MORE IF WE'RE NOT TRYING TO GET
00:31:21.81\00:31:27.62
ALL OF THE THINGS
THAT WE WANT, RIGHT?
00:31:27.62\00:31:30.79
WE WOULD HAVE A LOT
FRIENDLIER WORKPLACES, YEAH?
00:31:30.79\00:31:34.36
I THINK A LOT OF OUR CHURCHES
WOULD BE A LOT FRIENDLIER, IF WE
00:31:34.36\00:31:39.23
WERE THERE NOT BECAUSE THEY WANT
TO PROMOTE THEMSELVES, ALL THEY
00:31:39.23\00:31:43.63
WANT TO DO IS EXALT JESUS.
AND IT'S HARDER FOR THE SPIRIT
00:31:43.63\00:31:47.37
TO DO THAT. YOU
WANT TO KNOW WHY?
00:31:47.37\00:31:52.04
BECAUSE THE SPIRIT HAS THE
CAPACITY OF DOING SO MUCH MORE
00:31:52.04\00:31:55.41
THAN WE. WE'RE SO
FRAIL, AND WE'RE SO
00:31:55.41\00:32:02.02
ENCUMBERED BY LIMITATIONS.
BUT HERE WE HAVE THE THIRD GOD
00:32:02.02\00:32:13.19
HEAD, WHO HAS THE CAPACITY OF
BEING IN BEIJING AND NEW DELHI
00:32:13.19\00:32:18.60
AT THE SAME TIME.
THAT'S PRETTY REMARKABLE.
00:32:18.60\00:32:21.84
AND EVEN THOUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT
HAS THAT UNIQUE SUPER NATURAL
00:32:21.84\00:32:26.54
ABILITY, SHHHH, SILENCE.
ALL YOU HEAR COMING FROM THE
00:32:26.54\00:32:31.45
HOLY SPIRIT IS
THE WORLD FROM JESUS.
00:32:31.45\00:32:32.88
AND I BELIEVE THAT SOMEONE
WHO IS REALLY FILLED WITH THE
00:32:32.88\00:32:38.19
SPIRITS WILL
EMULATE THE SAME BEHAVIOR.
00:32:38.19\00:32:42.42
>> AMEN. >> YOU SEE THAT?-pAND
A LOT OF PEOPLE -- A LOT OF
00:32:42.42\00:32:46.29
PEOPLE ARE ATTACKING THIS
IDEA OF THE PERSONALITY OF THE
00:32:46.29\00:32:48.90
SPIRIT, AND WE'RE GOING TO
-- WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT
00:32:48.90\00:32:52.67
SOME OF THE DANGERS, BECAUSE
SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE DOES IT
00:32:52.67\00:32:56.10
REALLY MATTER? BUT BEAR WITH ME.
00:32:56.10\00:32:59.34
JOHN 16, JUMP WITH ME TO
CHAPTER 16, AND GO TO VERSE 7.
00:32:59.34\00:33:03.58
THIS IS PROBABLY THE LONGEST
DETAILED SPECIFIC GUIDELINES
00:33:03.58\00:33:11.02
THAT JESUS GIVES AS TO
THE WORK OF THE SPIRIT.
00:33:11.02\00:33:14.42
JOHN 16, AND WE'RE
GOING TO BEGIN IN VERSE 7.
00:33:14.42\00:33:17.59
WHEN YOU ARE
THERE, PLEASE SAY AMEN.
00:33:17.59\00:33:20.56
JESUS SAYS NEVERTHELESS I
TELL YOU THE TRUTH IT IS TO YOUR
00:33:20.56\00:33:25.63
ADVANTAGE THAT I GO AWAY.
BECAUSE IF I DON'T GO AWAY, THE
00:33:25.63\00:33:29.27
HELPER IS NOT GOING TO COME, BUT
IF I DEPART, I WILL SEND HIM TO
00:33:29.27\00:33:36.64
YOU. NOTICE HE
IS REFERRING TO THE
00:33:36.64\00:33:38.61
HOLY SPIRIT AS A HE, NOT AN
IT, WHEN HE HAS COME, HE WILL
00:33:38.61\00:33:42.48
CONVICT THE WORLD OF SIN, OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS AND OF JUDGMENT.
00:33:42.48\00:33:49.26
OF SIN BECAUSE THEY
DO NOT BELIEVE IN ME.
00:33:49.26\00:33:52.63
OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
BECAUSE YOU SEE ME NO MORE.
00:33:52.63\00:33:56.26
OF JUDGMENT BECAUSE THE
RULER OF THIS WORLD IS JUDGED.
00:33:56.26\00:33:59.30
I STILL HAVE MANY THINGS TO
SAY TO YOU, BUT YOU JUST CAN'T
00:33:59.30\00:34:03.57
HANDLE IT. YOU
JUST CAN'T HANDLE IT.
00:34:03.57\00:34:05.94
THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS
THAT WE CAN'T HANDLE RIGHT NOW.
00:34:05.94\00:34:09.88
HOWEVER, WHEN HE, THE SPIRIT HAS
COME, HE WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL
00:34:09.88\00:34:15.95
TRUTH, FOR HE WILL NOT SPEAK ON
HIS OWN AUTHORITY, BUT WHATEVER
00:34:15.95\00:34:19.12
HE HEARS, HE WILL SPEAK AND
HE WILL TELL YOU THINGS TO COME.
00:34:19.12\00:34:24.23
HE WILL GLORIFY ME, FOR HE
WILL TAKE OF WHAT IS MINE, AND
00:34:24.23\00:34:29.40
DECLARE IT UNTO YOU. ALL
THINGS THAT THE FATHER HAS
00:34:29.40\00:34:32.63
IN MIND, THEREFORE, I SAID HE
WILL TAKE OF MINE AND DECLARE IT
00:34:32.63\00:34:38.11
UNTO YOU. HE IS ADDING
00:34:38.11\00:34:43.24
DIFFERENTING --
DIFFERENT DETAILS.
00:34:43.24\00:34:46.21
WE SEE THERE ARE PARALLELS.
JESUS IS SAYING THE SPIRIT WILL
00:34:46.21\00:34:50.65
TEST THE FIRE IN ME, THE SPIRIT
WILL MAGNIFY AND WHAT WE SEE IS
00:34:50.65\00:34:55.96
THAT THE SPIRIT WILL TAKE
EVERYTHING THAT HE HAS HEARD
00:34:55.96\00:34:58.23
FROM ME AND WILL TELL YOU THOSE
THINGS TO COME, AND HE WILL NOT
00:34:58.23\00:35:02.20
SPEAK ON HIS OWN AUTHORITY, BUT
HE WILL SPEAK ON THE AUTHORITY
00:35:02.20\00:35:05.13
OF THE SON. SO
THE SPIRIT, HAS A VERY
00:35:05.13\00:35:09.77
COMPLEX MINISTRY.
BECAUSE THE SPIRIT'S JOB IS TO
00:35:09.77\00:35:14.51
TAKE WHAT CHRIST HAS DONE
ON CAVALRY, AND APPLY IT TO THE
00:35:14.51\00:35:21.92
NITTY NITTY-GRITTY, SPECIFIC
00:35:21.92\00:35:25.09
DAY-TO-DAY LIFE. HE
IS THERE TO APPLY THE
00:35:25.09\00:35:27.92
PROVISION OF THE CROSS TO US
INDIVIDUALLY IN OUR HEARTS, AND
00:35:27.92\00:35:31.66
OF COURSE WHEN THAT OCCURS,
WE EXPERIENCE REPENTANCE.
00:35:31.66\00:35:35.46
WHEN WE SEE THE GOODNESS OF
GOD, IT LEADS US TO REPENTANCE.
00:35:35.46\00:35:39.97
BUT IN ORDER FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT
TO DO THIS EFFECTIVELY, HE HAS
00:35:39.97\00:35:44.17
TO HAVE THE ABILITY
OF WORKING WITH PEOPLE.
00:35:44.17\00:35:46.27
HE HAS TO HAVE THE ABILITY OF
NAVIGATING THROUGH COMPLICATED
00:35:46.27\00:35:50.01
HUMAN EMOTIONS, AND IF THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS NOT A PERSON, HE COULD
00:35:50.01\00:36:02.56
NOT CARRY THAT OUT. A
COLLEAGUE OF MINE PUT ALL OF
00:36:02.56\00:36:07.96
THE SPECIFIC WORDS THAT ARE
VERBS, PRETTY MUCH ALL THE WAY
00:36:07.96\00:36:12.33
FROM THE BEGINNING ALL THE WAY
TO THE END OF THE ENTIRE BIBLE.
00:36:12.33\00:36:16.81
I'M GOING TO READ IT RAPIDLY
BECAUSE OUR TIME IS LIMITED, BUT
00:36:16.81\00:36:20.18
HERE IS A SERIES OF VERBS THAT
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ASSOCIATED
00:36:20.18\00:36:25.38
WITH, THAT CONFIRMS THAT
THE HOLY SPIRIT MUST HAVE
00:36:25.38\00:36:29.52
PERSONALITY. AND
WE'RE GOING TO START IN
00:36:29.52\00:36:32.32
AFTER BET CALL ORDER.
WE'RE GOING TO START WITH THE
00:36:32.32\00:36:36.93
A'S. THE HOLY SPIRIT ABIDES.
00:36:36.93\00:36:38.36
THE HOLY SPIRIT ANOINTS.
THE HOLY SPIRIT BARES WITNESS.
00:36:38.36\00:36:44.10
THE HOLY SPIRIT BAPTIZES.
HE BRINGS UNITY AND PEACE.
00:36:44.10\00:36:49.10
HE BUILDS UP. THE
HOLY SPIRIT CAN BE GRIEVED.
00:36:49.10\00:36:53.04
HE COMFORTS. HE COMMANDS.
00:36:53.04\00:36:55.54
HE COMMITS, AND HE DWELLS.-THE
HOLY SPIRIT COMMUNES. THE HOLY
00:36:55.54\00:37:02.68
SPIRIT CONCEIVED. THE HOLY
SPIRIT CREATES. THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:37:02.68\00:37:07.02
CRIES. THE HOLY SPIRIT
COMPELS. THE HOLY SPIRIT DWELLS.
00:37:07.02\00:37:11.63
DIRECTS, EMPOWERS, ENABLES US
TO PRAY, FORBIDS, GIVES ACCESS,
00:37:11.63\00:37:17.57

WILLS. LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN, YOU CANNOT
00:37:49.10\00:37:50.40
DO THAT UNLESS
YOU A PERSON. >> AMEN.
00:37:50.40\00:37:54.04
>> AMEN? FROM
GENESIS ALL THROUGHOUT TO
00:37:54.04\00:37:57.54
THE BOOK OF REVELATION, WE SEE
THE SPIRIT OF GOD -- IN THE NEW
00:37:57.54\00:38:01.84
TESTAMENT IT SEEMS LIKE HE TAKES
A MORE PROMINENT ROLE, BUT IN
00:38:01.84\00:38:07.58
THE OLD TESTAMENT THE SPIRIT
WAS-ACTUALLY INVOLVED AS WELL.
BUT WE SEE THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS
00:38:07.58\00:38:12.45
FULL OF ACTION, CARRYING OUT THE
MINISTRY OF BRINGING CONVICTION
00:38:12.45\00:38:16.69
TO THE WORLD. WE
CANNOT SAY THAT THE SPIRIT IS
00:38:16.69\00:38:20.00
A FORCE OR AN ESSENCE.
BECAUSE IT'S JUST NOT ACCORDING
00:38:20.00\00:38:23.97
TO WHAT THE
EVIDENCE OF SCRIPTURE HAS.
00:38:23.97\00:38:26.20
NOW IT IS TRUE THAT THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS -- IS ILLUSTRATED IN
00:38:26.20\00:38:30.71
DIFFERENT WAYS.
REFERRED TO, OF COURSE, AS FIRE,
00:38:30.71\00:38:34.78
RIGHT? IT IS
REFERRED TO AS WATER.
00:38:34.78\00:38:37.81
IT'S REFERRED TO AS MANY
DIFFERENT SYMBOLS IN NATURE.
00:38:37.81\00:38:42.22
BUT OF COURSE SO IS
JESUS. JESUS IS THE BREAD.
00:38:42.22\00:38:45.55
THE LIFE, THE
LIGHT OF THE WORLD.
00:38:45.55\00:38:48.29
SO JUST BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT
HAS THOSE ATTRIBUTES OR THEIR
00:38:48.29\00:38:52.46
PARALLEL SYMBOLS, REFERRING
TO HIS MINISTRY AND PERSONALITY
00:38:52.46\00:38:57.30
DOESN'T MEAN IT IS
BECAUSE HE LACKS PERSONALITY.
00:38:57.30\00:38:59.70
NOW I WANT TO SHOW YOU THE FIRST
BIBLE TEXT THAT PREVENTS THE
00:38:59.70\00:39:05.21
SPIRIT. THAT'S ALL
THE WAY IN THE BOOK
00:39:05.21\00:39:06.88
OF GENESIS. I WANT
TO TAKE YOU ALL THE WAY
00:39:06.88\00:39:10.31
BACK TO THE
BEGINNING. GENESIS CHAPTER 1.
00:39:10.31\00:39:14.88
THE FIRST OCCASION
WHERE THE SPIRIT APPEARS.
00:39:14.88\00:39:20.16
GENESIS CHAPTER 1, AND WE'RE
GOING TO LOOK AT THE FIRST TWO
00:39:20.16\00:39:23.86
VERSES. I WANT TO
SHOW YOU HOW EARLY IN
00:39:23.86\00:39:26.39
THE ENTIRE BIBLE
THE SPIRIT APPEARS.
00:39:26.39\00:39:30.20
GENESIS 1, IN THE BEGINNING
GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE
00:39:30.20\00:39:38.04
EARTH. THE EARTH
WAS WITHOUT FORM AND
00:39:38.04\00:39:40.74
VOID, AND DARKNESS WAS ON THE
FACE OF THE DEEP, AND THE SPIRIT
00:39:40.74\00:39:44.38
OF GOD WAS HOVERING OVER THE
FACE OF THE WATERS, DOT, DOT,
00:39:44.38\00:39:49.52
DOT, YOU CAN READ THE
REST WHEN YOU GET HOME.
00:39:49.52\00:39:51.99
HERE WE HAVE THE INTRODUCTION TO
SCRIPTURE, THE INTRODUCTION TO
00:39:51.99\00:39:56.19
THE BIBLE, AND ONE OF THE MOST
PROMINENT CHARACTERS WE SEE IS
00:39:56.19\00:40:01.10
THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
AND THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS
00:40:01.10\00:40:05.10
ACTUALLY UNDERTAKING A
POWERFUL, POWERFUL MINISTRY OF
00:40:05.10\00:40:10.47
TRANSFORMATION. >> AMEN.
00:40:10.47\00:40:11.57
>> BECAUSE IN THE BEGINNING THE
WORLD WAS WITHOUT FORM AND VOID
00:40:11.57\00:40:16.31
AND DARKNESS COVERED THE WORLD.
SO THE HOLY SPIRIT, OF COURSE,
00:40:16.31\00:40:21.88
ALONG WITH THE FATHER AND
THE SON WERE BOTH -- ALL THREE
00:40:21.88\00:40:25.72
TOGETHER WORKING IN THE
TRANSFORMATION OF PLANET EARTH
00:40:25.72\00:40:31.76
GOING FROM VOID -- DARK
AND CHAOTIC TO GENESIS 131.
00:40:31.76\00:40:37.03
AND IT WAS VERY GOOD.
GENESIS 1 LITERALLY SHOWS US
00:40:37.03\00:40:43.44
WHAT THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS CAPABLE OF.
00:40:43.44\00:40:46.98
AMEN? >> AMEN.
00:40:46.98\00:40:48.04
>> THE HOLY SPIRIT IS CAPABLE
OF TAKING A PLANET, THAT IS
00:40:48.04\00:40:53.88
UNLIVABLE, AND TURNING IT
INTO A PLANET THAT, NOT ONLY IS
00:40:53.88\00:40:57.79
LIVABLE, BUT THAT IS A DELIGHT.
AND IT'S FASCINATING BECAUSE THE
00:40:57.79\00:41:04.26
APOSTLE PAUL SAYS FOR GOD WHO
COMMANDED THE LIGHTS TO SHINE
00:41:04.26\00:41:07.76
OUT OF DARKNESS IN
THE PAST, HAS SHOWN WHERE?
00:41:07.76\00:41:11.27
IN OUR HEARTS. IN
OTHER WORDS THE SAME POWER
00:41:11.27\00:41:14.24
THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD HAD
IN GENESIS 1, TRANSFORMING AN
00:41:14.24\00:41:19.74
UNLIVABLE PLANET INTO A LIVABLE
ONE IS THE SAME POWER THAT THE
00:41:19.74\00:41:25.08
HOLY SPIRIT HAS OF TURNING
AN UNCONVERTED HEARTS TO A
00:41:25.08\00:41:30.79
CONVERTED ONE. THIS IS
THE POWER -- THIS IS THE
00:41:30.79\00:41:33.39
VERY INTRODUCTION THAT WE HAVE,
NOT ONLY TO THE HOLY SPIRIT BUT
00:41:33.39\00:41:36.86
TO THE BIBLE ITSELF, AND THE
FIRST MESSAGE THE BIBLE WANTS US
00:41:36.86\00:41:40.56
TO UNDERSTAND IS, HEY, THE HOLY
SPIRIT ACTIVELY CAN GIVE YOU
00:41:40.56\00:41:44.43
HOPE WHERE THERE IS NONE.
THE MESS AGE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:41:44.43\00:41:48.50
IS HOPE. THE
MESSAGE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:41:48.50\00:41:51.67
IS THAT GOD
DOESN'T BELIEVE IN WRIT
00:41:51.67\00:41:55.14
WRITE-OFFS. THE
MESSAGE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:41:55.14\00:41:56.61
IS BE VERY CAREFUL WHO YOU THINK
IS NOT GOING TO GO TO HEAVEN.
00:41:56.61\00:42:01.92
BE VERY CAREFUL. BE
VERY CAREFUL WHO YOU PREJUDGE
00:42:01.92\00:42:07.06
BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT
HAS THE ABILITY OF SURPRISING.
00:42:07.06\00:42:12.59
NEVER, EVER THINK THAT YOU HAVE
GONE TOO FAR, BECAUSE THE SPIRIT
00:42:12.59\00:42:16.00
OF GOD CAN TURN A
MESS INTO A BLESSING.
00:42:16.00\00:42:20.00
AND THIS IS THE EXAMPLE WE HAVE
IN THE VERY FIRST PART OF THE
00:42:20.00\00:42:23.41
BOOK OF GENESIS. IF YOU
GO TO CHAPTER 6, YOU FIND
00:42:23.41\00:42:27.38
THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD WAS
ACTIVELY WORKING DURING THE TIME
00:42:27.38\00:42:33.55
OF THE FLOOD.
GENESIS CHAPTER 6, AND IF YOU
00:42:33.55\00:42:38.35
TAKE A LOOK AT VERSE 3, THE
BIBLE SAYS IN GENESIS 6:3, AND
00:42:38.35\00:42:48.13
THE LORD SAID MY SPIRIT SHALL
NOT STRIDE WITH MAN FOREVER.
00:42:48.13\00:42:52.07
FOR MAN IS FLESH, YET
HIS DAY SHALL BE 120 YEARS.
00:42:52.07\00:42:56.74
IN OTHER WORDS, A LOT OF
CONVICTION WAS COMING TO THE
00:42:56.74\00:43:01.01
HEARTS, AND THE MESSAGE WAS,
HEY, THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS NOT
00:43:01.01\00:43:05.08
GOING TO DWELL HERE, IT IS NOT
GOING TO STRIVE, AND THAT WORD
00:43:05.08\00:43:09.18
STRIVE SO RICH, BECAUSE IT
MEANS CONTEND, IT MEANS PLEA.
00:43:09.18\00:43:13.92
IT MEANS DISPUTE. HE
WAS TRYING TO BRING CON TRIB
00:43:13.92\00:43:18.43
SHUN TO THE HEARTS OF THESE
UNBELIEVERS, AND WE KNOW THE
00:43:18.43\00:43:21.66
SPIRIT OF GOD DEPARTED AND THERE
WAS JUDGMENT UPON THE LAND, AND
00:43:21.66\00:43:25.87
OF COURSE, WE KNOW AS IT WAS IN
THE DAYS OF -- SO SHALL IT BE IN
00:43:25.87\00:43:31.97
THE DAYS OF THE
COMING OF THE SON OF MAN.
00:43:31.97\00:43:38.41
SO THE HOLY SPIRIT
HAS AN ACTIVE ROLE.
00:43:38.41\00:43:43.15
RUN WITH ME TO
THE BOOK OF EPHESIANS.
00:43:43.15\00:43:50.03
EPHESIANS 4, THE -- APOSTLE PAUL
MENTIONS THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND
00:43:50.03\00:44:02.40
EVEN THOUGH THE SPIRIT OF
GOD IS A MIGHTY BEING, THE BIBLE
00:44:02.40\00:44:07.91
REVEALS THE SPIRIT OF GOD
IS SUSCEPTIBLE TO SOMETHING.
00:44:07.91\00:44:13.21
EPHESIANS 4:30
REVEALS WHAT THAT IS IT.
00:44:13.21\00:44:16.95
EPHESIANS 4:30, IT SAYS
AND DO NOT -- WHAT IS THAT
00:44:16.95\00:44:21.36
WORD -- GRIEVE WHO? THE
HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD BY WHOM
00:44:21.36\00:44:24.36
YOU WERE SEALED FOR
THE DAY OF REDEMPTION.
00:44:24.36\00:44:28.26
DO NOT GRIEVE -- NOW WHAT
DOES THE WORD GRIEVE MEAN?
00:44:28.26\00:44:32.03
GRIEVE OF COURSE COMES FROM THE
WORD GRIEF, SORROW, DISTRESS,
00:44:32.03\00:44:37.54
PAINED. IN OTHER
WORDS EVEN THOUGH THE
00:44:37.54\00:44:40.28
HOLY SPIRIT IS A MIGHTY BEING,
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THE SPIRIT
00:44:40.28\00:44:44.71
CAN EXPERIENCE GRIEF, SORROW.
IN ORDER TO EXPERIENCE GRIEF AND
00:44:44.71\00:44:49.95
SORROW, IT REQUIRES EMOTIONS,
AND IN ORDER TO EMOTIONS, YOU
00:44:49.95\00:44:53.82
MUST HAVE
PERSONALITY, AND PERSONHOOD.
00:44:53.82\00:44:57.06
IF I WERE TO TAKE, OF COURSE,
THESE SMARTPHONES AS THEY CALL
00:44:57.06\00:45:01.86
IT, AND OF COURSE --
HAVE YOU TRIED TO EVER HAVE A
00:45:01.86\00:45:05.40
CONVERSATION WITH
SIRI? [ LAUGHTER ]
00:45:05.40\00:45:06.87
>> I KNOW, I
THINK ALL OF US HAVE.
00:45:06.87\00:45:09.54
BUT LET'S SAY YOU ARE HAVING A
CONVERSATION WITH SIRI, AND YOU
00:45:09.54\00:45:12.87
SAY SIRI, I REALLY
DON'T LIKE YOU RIGHT NOW?
00:45:12.87\00:45:17.28
. I THINK YOU ARE A REALLY BAD
00:45:17.28\00:45:19.25
PERSON. YOU ARE
KIND OF ANNOYING.
00:45:19.25\00:45:22.15
IF YOU WERE TO TELL SIRI THAT,
WHOEVER SIRI IS, WHATEVER THAT
00:45:22.15\00:45:27.12
IS, DO YOU THINK SIRI IS
ACTUALLY GOING TO BE OFFENDED?
00:45:27.12\00:45:31.23
NO THE ENGINEERS OF THIS MACHINE
PROBABLY ARE SO CLEVER THAT THEY
00:45:31.23\00:45:35.40
MAY HAVE PROGRAMMED THE
RESPONSES FOR SUCH INSULTS.
00:45:35.40\00:45:40.20
RIGHT? [ LAUGHTER ]
00:45:40.20\00:45:40.90
>> SO IF YOU WERE TO SAY, SIRI,
I THINK YOU ARE VERY ANNOYING.
00:45:40.90\00:45:45.27
SIRI COULD BE LIKE,
SO ARE YOU. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:45:45.27\00:45:50.11
>> RIGHT? BUT IS
SIRI REALLY OFFENDED?
00:45:50.11\00:45:53.42
IS SHE REALLY ANNOYED? NO,
BECAUSE REALLY, SIRI DOESN'T
00:45:53.42\00:45:57.62
EXIST. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?
00:45:57.62\00:45:59.02
SO THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THE
HOLY SPIRIT CAN BE GRIEVED.
00:45:59.02\00:46:04.83
WHY? BECAUSE THE SPIRIT IS NOT A
00:46:04.83\00:46:06.46
MACHINE. IT'S NOT A SIBORG.
00:46:06.46\00:46:19.74
IT CAN BE EFFECTED BY THE
WAY THAT WE RELATE TO HIM.
00:46:19.74\00:46:23.51
THAT IS PRETTY REMARKABLE.
ALL POWERFUL, YET AT THE SAME
00:46:23.51\00:46:27.85
TIME HAS THAT SENSITIVE TOUCH.
AND THAT SENSITIVE TOUCH IS
00:46:27.85\00:46:30.99
PRESENT IN ALL THREE
MEMBERS OF THE GOD HEAD.
00:46:30.99\00:46:33.76
SO WHY DOES IT REALLY MATTER?
I MEAN WE CAN GO ON AND ON, AND
00:46:33.76\00:46:37.83
SHOW CLEARLY FROM SCRIPTURE,
THAT INDEED THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A
00:46:37.83\00:46:41.23
PERSON. WHY DOES IT MATTER?
00:46:41.23\00:46:43.53
WELL, IT MATTERS
FOR A LOT OF REASONS.
00:46:43.53\00:46:46.57
ONE OF THE REASONS IT MATTERS IS
BECAUSE THIS ATTACK AGAINST THE
00:46:46.57\00:46:50.84
PERSONHOOD OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS
A SUBTLE ATTACK AGAINST ONE OF
00:46:50.84\00:46:54.91
THE
UNIQUENESSES OF CHRISTIANITY.
00:46:54.91\00:46:57.45
WHEN YOU LOOK AT ALL OF
THE RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD, AND
00:46:57.45\00:47:02.45
WHENEVER WE SAY THAT WE HAVE
TO HAVE A LOT OF SENSITIVITY.
00:47:02.45\00:47:06.69
BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF
BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE IN MANY OF THE
00:47:06.69\00:47:14.00
REL RELIGIONS.
00:47:14.00\00:47:15.93
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT CHRISTIANS
YOU FIND SOMETHING UNIQUE.
00:47:15.93\00:47:19.60
IN HINDUISM, YOU HAVE ROUGHLY
AROUND 330 MILLION DIFFERENT
00:47:19.60\00:47:24.61
GODS. THEY
ACTUALLY HAVE A NUMBER, BY
00:47:24.61\00:47:26.78
THE WAY, AND
THAT'S THE ACTUAL NUMBER.
00:47:26.78\00:47:29.38
330 MILLION. THE
INTERESTING THING IS THAT
00:47:29.38\00:47:31.71
THESE GODS AT TIMES ARE
AT ODDS WITH EACH OTHER.
00:47:31.71\00:47:35.52
SO IT GETS VERY COMPLEX AS TO
CARRYING OUT A MEANINGFUL, INTEE
00:47:35.52\00:47:44.43
MATE RELATIONSHIP WITH
ONE OF THE 130 MILLION.
00:47:44.43\00:47:48.86
AND IN ISLAM
THERE'S ONE GOD, ALLAH.
00:47:48.86\00:47:53.23
AND ALLAH IS SO DISTANT FROM THE
EXPERIENCE OF INDIVIDUAL HUMAN
00:47:53.23\00:47:58.81
BEINGS, THAT THERE IS ACTUALLY
A PARTICULAR SIN IN ISLAM THAT
00:47:58.81\00:48:03.98
COULD BE PUNISHABLE BY DEATH.
AND THAT SIN IS SAYING THAT I
00:48:03.98\00:48:10.85
KNOW ALLAH. AS IF I
KNOW ALLAH, I'M SO CLOSE
00:48:10.85\00:48:15.22
TO ALLAH, THEY
KNOW HIM. I FEEL HIM.
00:48:15.22\00:48:17.46
I SENSE HIM. THIS
IS ACTUALLY FORBIDDEN.
00:48:17.46\00:48:21.13
WHY? BECAUSE
ALLAH AND -- THERE'S A
00:48:21.13\00:48:24.27
BIG CHASM, THERE'S A BIG VOID,
AND IT'S ALMOST AS IF THAT'S HOW
00:48:24.27\00:48:28.84
ALLAH WANTS THINGS
TO BE. YOU UNDERSTAND?
00:48:28.84\00:48:31.74
WHEN YOU LOOK AT BUDDHISM.
BUDDHISM IS INTERESTING, BECAUSE
00:48:31.74\00:48:35.38
THERE REALLY IS
NO GOD IN BUDDHISM.
00:48:35.38\00:48:37.95
THE GOAL OF BUDDHISM IS TO
ESCAPE SUFFERING, AND THE WAY
00:48:37.95\00:48:41.22
YOU ESCAPE SUFFERING IS
BY ESCAPING DESIRES, BECAUSE
00:48:41.22\00:48:46.96
ACCORDING TO BUDDISM, THE REASON
THEY ARE SUFFERING IS BECAUSE OF
00:48:46.96\00:48:52.89
DESIRES. AND BY
ESCAPING DESIRES IS
00:48:52.89\00:48:57.50
ENTERING INTO A
WORLD OF NIRVANA.
00:48:57.50\00:49:02.54
WHICH IS LITERALLY A
WORLD OF NOTHINGNESS.
00:49:02.54\00:49:05.31
YOU SEE THAT? AT
LEAST IT'S LOGICAL.
00:49:05.31\00:49:07.54
AT LEAST IT'S
CONSISTENT. THERE'S A PROBLEM.
00:49:07.54\00:49:10.81
HUMAN BEINGS, IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHAT GENERATION YOU EVENT, OR
00:49:10.81\00:49:15.68
WHAT ETHNICITY YOU REPRESENT,
WE ALL CRAVE RELATIONSHIPS.
00:49:15.68\00:49:22.02
WE ALL CRAVE THAT CONNECTION,
THE ONLY RELIGION, THE ONLY
00:49:22.02\00:49:28.60
MESSAGE THAT GIVES US, NOT A
RELIGION, BUT A RELATIONSHIP IS
00:49:28.60\00:49:34.30
CHRISTIANITY. >> AMEN.
00:49:34.30\00:49:35.44
>> AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE
ACTIVE MEMBER OF THE GOD HEAD
00:49:35.44\00:49:39.74
WHO IS NOW THE -- THE -- THE ONE
THAT IS IN CHARGE OF TAKING THE
00:49:39.74\00:49:44.21
HEARTS OF ALL OF THE PEOPLE
BACK TO CALVARY, SO THEY CAN
00:49:44.21\00:49:48.98
EXPERIENCE REPENTANCE, SO
BY DEMOTING THE SPIRIT OF HIS
00:49:48.98\00:49:52.65
PERSONALITY, WHAT YOU ARE
ESSENTIALLY DOING IS REMOVING
00:49:52.65\00:49:56.16
THIS BEAUTIFUL UNIQUENESS THAT
EXISTS IN CHRISTIANITY ALONE.
00:49:56.16\00:50:00.36
IT'S A SUBTLE ATTACK, BUT
IT IS AN ATTACK NONETHELESS.
00:50:00.36\00:50:06.43
IT'S INTERESTING, ALSO, BECAUSE
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT, WHAT IS
00:50:06.43\00:50:09.80
AN IDOL? ONE OF
THE BIGGEST THINGS THAT
00:50:09.80\00:50:13.04
YOU HEAR IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
IS THE FORBIDDING IDOLATRY.
00:50:13.04\00:50:18.38
EVEN PARTS OF THE NEW
TEST YOU SEE IDOLATRY.
00:50:18.38\00:50:23.49
WELL, ONE OF THE THIGS THAT
THE PROPHETS EVEN IN THE BOOK OF
00:50:23.49\00:50:26.96
REVELATION, TALK ABOUT, THE
REASON WHY IDOLATRY DOESN'T MAKE
00:50:26.96\00:50:30.39
ANY SENSE, IS BECAUSE -- AND IT
USES THIS LANGUAGE -- BECAUSE AN
00:50:30.39\00:50:38.50
IDOL DOES NOT FEEL. AN --
IDOL DOES NOT HEAR OR SEE.
00:50:38.50\00:50:49.28
BECAUSE AN IDOL IS
VOID OF PERSONALITY.
00:50:49.28\00:50:52.01
SO FOLLOW THIS LOGIC CAREFULLY.
WHEN PEOPLE TRY TO TAKE THE HOLY
00:50:52.01\00:50:56.79
SPIRIT AND TRY TO STRIP THE HOLY
SPIRIT OF THE PERSONALITY THAT
00:50:56.79\00:51:02.39
HE HAS, THEY ARE LITERALLY
TURNING THE HOLY SPIRIT INTO AN
00:51:02.39\00:51:08.86
IDOL. AND THAT IS FORBIDDEN IN
00:51:08.86\00:51:10.97
SCRIPTURE, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
SO WE HAVE TO BE VERY, VERY
00:51:10.97\00:51:14.74
CAREFUL HOW WE TREAT AND HOW
WE -- WE ASSOCIATE THINGS TO THE
00:51:14.74\00:51:18.57
HOLY SPIRIT. THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS NOT AN IDOL,
00:51:18.57\00:51:21.54
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT IS
00:51:21.54\00:51:23.28
ALIVE. >> AMEN.
00:51:23.28\00:51:24.41
>> THE HOLY SPIRIT
LISTENS TO YOUR PRAYERS.
00:51:24.41\00:51:26.28
>> AMEN. >> THE
HOLY SPIRIT IS CHASING
00:51:26.28\00:51:28.88
YOUR -- YOUR SONS
AND YOUR DAUGHTERS.
00:51:28.88\00:51:31.49
>> AMEN. >> EVEN
IN THOSE PLACES THAT
00:51:31.49\00:51:35.29
UNFORTUNATELY SOME OF
US MISSIONARIES DON'T GO.
00:51:35.29\00:51:37.99
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THERE, AND
HE IS TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING TO
00:51:37.99\00:51:41.80
BRING THE CHILDREN
BACK TO THE HEART OF GOD.
00:51:41.80\00:51:45.33
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSON.
00:51:45.33\00:51:47.07
>> AMEN. >> THE
HOLY SPIRIT IS REAL.
00:51:47.07\00:51:50.87
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ONE
THAT CAN RELATE WITH US.
00:51:50.87\00:51:53.48
WHY? BECAUSE HE
HAS BEEN THERE FROM
00:51:53.48\00:51:55.14
DAY ONE. HE UNDERSTANDS.
00:51:55.14\00:51:57.25
HE COMES CLOSE. AND THE
WAY THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:51:57.25\00:52:00.62
MINISTERS TO US IS AN EXAMPLE OF
HOW WE SHOULD MINISTER TO THOSE
00:52:00.62\00:52:05.59
OUT THERE. WE
NEED TO COME CLOSE.
00:52:05.59\00:52:07.56
WE NEED TO BE
HUMBLE. WE NEED TO GUIDE.
00:52:07.56\00:52:11.16
WE NEED TO EXALT JESUS. >> AMEN.
00:52:11.16\00:52:13.63
>> WHEN WE LOOK CAREFUL AT THE
HOLY SPIRIT IT'S A MYSTERY, AND
00:52:13.63\00:52:18.10
THE CHURCH IS SUPPOSED TO
BE A MYSTERY, THE MYSTERY OF
00:52:18.10\00:52:23.17
GODLINESS, THE FEEDER OF GRACE.
WHERE PEOPLE COME IN FELLOWSHIP
00:52:23.17\00:52:27.91
AND WORSHIP, THEY SHOULD
SEE THE EXACT SAME THING.
00:52:27.91\00:52:31.65
IF THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS JUST AN
ENERGY, WE WOULD BE TEMPTED TO
00:52:31.65\00:52:36.48
ASK, HOW CAN I HAE
MORE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT?
00:52:36.48\00:52:41.19
BUT IF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A
PERSON, WE PROBABLY CAN ASK, HOW
00:52:41.19\00:52:46.73
CAN THE HOLY
SPIRIT HAVE MORE OF ME?
00:52:46.73\00:52:54.67
THE GREATEST THING IN HUMANITY
TODAY IS THE OUTPOURING OF THE
00:52:54.67\00:52:58.67
HOLY SPIRIT. AND ONE
OF THE ATTACKS THAT THE
00:52:58.67\00:53:00.71
DEVIL IS TRYING TO DO IS TRYING
TO ATTACK THE PERSON OF THE
00:53:00.71\00:53:05.01
SPIRIT, BECAUSE IF WE DON'T HAVE
THE PERSON OF THE SPIRIT, THEN
00:53:05.01\00:53:08.78
WE HAVE A DISCONNECT, AND THAT'S
EXACTLY WHAT THE ENEMY OF SOULS
00:53:08.78\00:53:13.19
WANTS. HE WANTS TO
DISCONNECT HUMANITY
00:53:13.19\00:53:16.52
FROM THAT LIFELINE.
JESUS IS IN THE HOLY OF HOLIES,
00:53:16.52\00:53:20.00
RIGHT? AND HE IS
STANDING, INTERCEDING
00:53:20.00\00:53:22.16
ON BEHALF OF HUMANITY
BEFORE GOD, THE FATHER.
00:53:22.16\00:53:27.54
WELL, THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ON
PLANET EARTH, AND HE'S STANDING
00:53:27.54\00:53:31.14
IN OUR PRESENCE
ON BEHALF OF JESUS.
00:53:31.14\00:53:34.58
>> AMEN. >> SO AS
WE GO IN PRAYER, AND WE
00:53:34.58\00:53:40.38
PRAY, THE SPIRIT OF GOD TAKES
HER TO PRAYERS AND AS THE BOOK
00:53:40.38\00:53:43.45

00:55:39.37\00:55:46.54
GEMS OF THOSE TRUTHS THAT WE
HAVE ALREADY DISCOVERED, WE CAN
00:55:46.54\00:55:49.98
UNDERSTAND THAT THE SPIRIT
IS ARRIVE AND WELL, THAT IS A
00:55:49.98\00:55:53.65
BEING. THE FINAL
MENTION OF THE SPIRIT.
00:55:53.65\00:55:56.02
GRAB YOUR BIBLES. GO
TO THE BOOK OF REVELATION.
00:55:56.02\00:55:59.19
THE FINAL MENTION OF THE
SPIRITS, WE SAW THE FIRST ONE,
00:55:59.19\00:56:06.59
GENESIS 1, GENESIS 1, THE SPIRIT
WAS THERE, TRANSFORMING PLANET
00:56:06.59\00:56:10.40
EARTH FROM UNLIVABLE TO LIVABLE.
THE LAST EXAMPLE WE HAVE
00:56:10.40\00:56:15.40
REFERENCE TO THE SPIRIT IS IN
THE LAST CHAPTER OF THE BIBLE.
00:56:15.40\00:56:18.81
I FIND THAT VERY CURIOUS.
FIRST CHAPTER OF THE BIBLE HE IS
00:56:18.81\00:56:23.08
THERE. LAST
CHAPTER OF THE BIBLE HE IS
00:56:23.08\00:56:27.92
THERE. IN BETWEEN HE'S THERE.
00:56:27.92\00:56:30.42
REVELATIONS 22:17, THE BIBLE
SAYS, AND THE SPIRIT AND THE
00:56:30.42\00:56:39.46
BRIDE TAKE HOME, AND LET HIM WHO
HEARS SAY COME, AND LET HIM WHO
00:56:39.46\00:56:48.70
THIRSTS, COME, WHOEVER DESIRES
LET HIM MAKE THE WATER OF LIFE.
00:56:48.70\00:56:54.68

WITH THE SON, ALONG WITH THE
00:56:54.68\00:56:58.55
FATHER, TRANSFORMED THE PLANET
THAT WAS UNLIVABLE INTO A PLANET
