>> PRECIOUS FATHER THIS MORNING
0 AS WE OPEN YOUR WORD, PLEASE
00:02:20.80\00:02:24.17
OPEN OUR HEARTS AND OUR MINDS
SO THAT WHEN WE SPEAK, LORD, WE
00:02:24.17\00:02:26.91
WILL KNOW WE ARE NOT DOING SUCH
ON OUR OWN STRENGTH AND A IN OUR
00:02:26.91\00:02:32.08
OWN INTELLECT BUT THAT YOU
ARE POURING INTO US AND POURING
00:02:32.08\00:02:35.55
THROUGH US, SEND YOUR HOLY SMIRK
TO CAUSE OUR EARS TO HEAR WHAT
00:02:35.55\00:02:40.09
THE SPIRIT SAYS TO THE CHURCH
AND MAY IT ALL EXALT YOU AND
00:02:40.09\00:02:43.46
LIFT UP YOUR HOLY NAME,
IN JESUS' NAME WE PRAY, AMEN.
00:02:43.46\00:02:47.10
>> AMEN. WE ARE
IN LESSON NUMBER 13,
00:02:47.10\00:02:51.37
COMMUNITY OF SERVANTS, I WANT TO
ASK YOU TO START, WITH WHAT IS
00:02:51.37\00:02:54.54
THE PURPOSE OF THE CHURCH?
>> NOW YOU MIGHT SAY IT IS A
00:02:54.54\00:02:58.84
PLACE FOR
SINNERS TO FIND A SAVIOR.
00:02:58.84\00:03:01.74
WOULD THAT BE
ACCURATE? ABSOLUTELY.
00:03:01.74\00:03:03.95
IT IS A PLACE FOR BELIEVERS TO
LEARN HOW TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL.
00:03:03.95\00:03:08.72
IS THAT ACCURATE? IT
IS A PLACE FOR MEMBERS TO
00:03:08.72\00:03:12.02
BUILD UP THE BODY OF CHRIST.
AND THAT IS ACCURATE TOO.
00:03:12.02\00:03:17.13
BUT THE FOCUS OF THE LESSON
ESPECIALLY THIS LESSON IS THAT
00:03:17.13\00:03:21.10
THE CHURCH IS CALLED TO BE
THE HANDS AND THE FEET OF JESUS.
00:03:21.10\00:03:26.10
WE ARE CALLED TO SERVANT HOOD,
TO FOLLOW IN THE FOOD STEPS OF
00:03:26.10\00:03:31.24
OUR MASTER .. WE ARE CALLED TO
REACH OUT WITH ACTS OF LOVE AND
00:03:31.24\00:03:36.61
SERVICE TO THOSE WHO ARE AROUND
US, TO THOSE WHO ARE LOST AND
00:03:36.61\00:03:40.02
DON'T EVEN KNOW JESUS.
THE EARLY CHRISTIAN CHURCH, WE
00:03:40.02\00:03:43.85
READ ABOUT THEM
IN ACTS CHAPTER 2.
00:03:43.85\00:03:46.86
THEY WERE EVANGELISTICALLY
MINDED, THEY SACRIFICED TO
00:03:46.86\00:03:50.96
SPREAD THE GOSPEL.
THEY TOOK CARE OF THE NEEDS
00:03:50.96\00:03:55.00
WITHIN THE CHURCH. THEY
SHARED FOOD AND POSSESSIONS
00:03:55.00\00:03:57.83
AND THEY SHARED THEM IN COMMON.
THEY SHARED FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE
00:03:57.83\00:04:03.47
ANOTHER. I LOVE
THAT WORD, COIN NIA, THE
00:04:03.47\00:04:07.71
SPIRITUAL
FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER.
00:04:07.71\00:04:09.91
AND THEY PREACHED THE GOSPEL,
CLEARLY THEY PREACHED THE
00:04:09.91\00:04:13.31
GOSPEL, THEY STUDIED GOD'S
WORD A AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THEY
00:04:13.31\00:04:17.12
LIVED THE GOSPEL. ON
SUNDAY'S LESSON WHICH I HAVE
00:04:17.12\00:04:19.75
THE PRIVILEGE TO TALK
ABOUT WE LOOK AT AT OF CHANGE.
00:04:19.75\00:04:23.39
NOW WE KNOW JESUS TALKED ABOUT
THE CHURCH AND JESUS TALKED
00:04:23.39\00:04:26.16
ABOUT BELIEVERS AS SALT
AND LIGHT, BUT WE ARE NOT GOING
00:04:26.16\00:04:29.90
STUDY THAT TODAY. WE
ARE GOING TO LOOK AT SOME OF
00:04:29.90\00:04:32.23
THE PAUL'S
METAPHORS FOR THE CHURCH.
00:04:32.23\00:04:35.47
PAUL'S METAPHORS FOR BELIEVERS.
NOW THERE ARE FOUR METAPHORS
00:04:35.47\00:04:38.51
THAT ARE TALKED ABOUT IN
SUNDAY'S LESSON, I DON'T KNOW IF
00:04:38.51\00:04:41.38
WE ARE GOING TO
GET TO ALL OF THEM.
00:04:41.38\00:04:43.28
WE WILL FIND OUT. BUT
THE FOUR WE WILL START AND
00:04:43.28\00:04:45.25
SEE HOW FAR WE GET.
THE FIRST METAPHOR IS THE
00:04:45.25\00:04:48.88
BELIEVERS AS A SACRIFICE.
THAT'S IN ROMANCE 12, TURN WITH
00:04:48.88\00:04:52.95
ME TO ROMANCE 12, THE SECOND
METAPHOR IS CHRIST, THE CHURCH
00:04:52.95\00:04:56.62
OF CHRIST'S BODY. AND
THEN THE THIRD IS THE CHURCH
00:04:56.62\00:05:01.83
AS CHRIST'S AMBASSADORS AND
THE FOURTH IS ACTUALLY SOMETHING
00:05:01.83\00:05:04.40
THAT HAS
SOMETHING NO DO WITH SMELL.
00:05:04.40\00:05:06.63
THE CHURCH AS PERFUME. SO
LET'S SEE IF WE GET TO ALL OF
00:05:06.63\00:05:10.57
THEM BUT WE ARE GOING TO START
WITH THE SACRIFICE, ROWE MANZ
00:05:10.57\00:05:17.55
12:1. >> BY THE
MERCIES OF GOD THAT
00:05:17.55\00:05:19.51
YOU PRESENT YOURSELVES, YOUR
BODIES, A .. LIVING SACRIFICE,
00:05:19.51\00:05:27.16
HOLY, ACCEPTABLE TO GOD WHICH
IS YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE.
00:05:27.16\00:05:32.59
NOW THAT WORD SACK FITS WE
PRESENT OUR BODIES A LIVING
00:05:32.59\00:05:35.76
SACRIFICE OR IT CAN BE MEAN
AN OFFERING AS BELIEVERS WE ARE
00:05:35.76\00:05:39.67
CALLED TO PRESENT OURSELVES
AS AN OFFERING TO THE LORD, HOLY
00:05:39.67\00:05:44.54
THAT WORD HOLY IN
GREEK MEANS TO BE SET APART.
00:05:44.54\00:05:49.24
SET APART BY AND FOR
GOD. TO BE SET APART.
00:05:49.24\00:05:54.55
WE ARE CALLED TO BE SET APART
THE LIVING SACRIFICE, LIVING
00:05:54.55\00:06:00.62
OFFERING SETS APART, IT SAYS
IT IS YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE,
00:06:00.62\00:06:03.63
SERVICE CAN BE TRANSLATED
YOUR SPIRITUAL ACT OF WORSHIP.
00:06:03.63\00:06:07.30
NOT JUST SERVICE BUT WORSHIP.
SO I WANT TO TALK -- YOU KNOW
00:06:07.30\00:06:12.00
THIS, GIRL, PASTOR JOHN WOULD
SAY JILL, YOU KNOW, I HAVE -- I
00:06:12.00\00:06:16.77
AM GOING TO TALK ABOUT FIVE
LESSONS THAT WE CAN LEARN FROM
00:06:16.77\00:06:21.08
THIS IMAGE OR THE SYMBOLISM
OF 06 OF BELIEVERS BEING A
00:06:21.08\00:06:27.22
SACRIFICE TO GO. LESSON
NUMBER ONE, TRUE WORSHIP,
00:06:27.22\00:06:29.95
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT WORSHIP,
LESSON ONE, TRUE WORRY SHIP IS
00:06:29.95\00:06:35.16
RATIONAL. GOD
NEVER CALLS US TO WORSHIP
00:06:35.16\00:06:37.53
APART FROM TRUTH. HE
NEVER CALLS US TO WORSHIP
00:06:37.53\00:06:41.20
APART FROM THE MIND
AND THE WORD OF GOD.
00:06:41.20\00:06:45.10
JOHN 4:24, GOD IS SPIRIT
AND THOSE WHO WORSHIP HIM MUST
00:06:45.10\00:06:49.20
WORSHIP HIM IN
SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.
00:06:49.20\00:06:53.54
ROMANCE 12:1 SAYS WE MUST
PRESENT OUR BODIES AS A LIVING
00:06:53.54\00:06:56.68
SACRIFICE AND THAT IS OUR
REASONABLE ACT OF WORSHIP.
00:06:56.68\00:07:01.28
IT ALSO MEANS OUR
RATIONAL ACT OF WORSHIP.
00:07:01.28\00:07:04.02
THE NEXT VERSE, VERSE 2, DO NOT
BE CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD BUT
00:07:04.02\00:07:08.49
BE YE TRANSFORMED BY
THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND.
00:07:08.49\00:07:13.19
SO TRUE WORRY SHIP IS RATIONAL.
NUMBER 2, TRUE WORRY SNIP IS
00:07:13.19\00:07:18.97
SACRIFICIAL, .. WE PRESENT
OUR BODIES A LIVING SACRIFICE.
00:07:18.97\00:07:24.77
SOMETIMES IT COSTS SOMETHING
TO FOLLOW THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
00:07:24.77\00:07:27.58
IT DEFINITELY COSTS
OURSELVES BEING GIVEN TO HIM.
00:07:27.58\00:07:33.42
SOMETIMES IT
COSTS A FAMILY MEMBER.
00:07:33.42\00:07:35.28
THEY SAY I DON'T
WANT TO WALK WITH JESUS.
00:07:35.28\00:07:37.15
AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE.
AM I GOING TO FOLLOW JESUS OR AM
00:07:37.15\00:07:42.02
I GOING TO FOLLOW MY FAMILY?
SOMETIMES WE HEAR STORIES OF
00:07:42.02\00:07:46.90
PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS, SOMETIMES
WORSHIP COSTS EVEN SOMEONE'S
00:07:46.90\00:07:51.60
LIFE. I HAVE
DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS,
00:07:51.60\00:07:55.90
REGARDLESS OF ANYTHING.
TO WORSHIP IS SACRIFICIAL.
00:07:55.90\00:07:59.67
TO WORRY LIP IS HOLY. WE
ARE CALLED TO BE SET APART.
00:07:59.67\00:08:04.15
WE ARE CALLED TO HAVE THAT
HOLY ACCEPTABLE SERVICE TO GOD.
00:08:04.15\00:08:08.88
SECOND TIMOTHY 1:9, WHO HAS
FAITH AND CALLED WITH US A HOLY
00:08:08.88\00:08:13.36
CALLING? NOT
ACCORDING TO OUR WORK BUT
00:08:13.36\00:08:15.62
ACCORDING TO HIS OWN PURPOSE AND
GRACE WHICH WAS GIVEN TO US IN
00:08:15.62\00:08:20.63
CHRIST JESUS BEFORE TIME BEGAN.
I LIKE THAT SCRIPTURE BECAUSE WE
00:08:20.63\00:08:23.60
ARE CALLED WITH A HOLY CALLING
BUT IT IS NOT BECAUSE WE ARE
00:08:23.60\00:08:28.24
HOLY, IT IS NOT ACCORDING TO OUR
OWN WORKS, BECAUSE MY WORKS, MY
00:08:28.24\00:08:33.54
RIGHTEOUSNESS IS A FILTHY RAG.
BUT IT TELLS US THAT ACCORDING
00:08:33.54\00:08:36.01
TO HIS OWN PURPOSE AND GRACE IT
IS THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS
00:08:36.01\00:08:40.78
CHRIST THAT CHANGES US. HIS
GRACE TRANSFORMS OUR HEARTS,
00:08:40.78\00:08:45.25
TRUE WORRY SHIP IS RATIONAL, IT
IS SACRIFICIAL AND IT IS HOLY,
00:08:45.25\00:08:49.69
IT INVOLVED DEATH. NOW
WE DON'T LIKE TO THINK ABOUT
00:08:49.69\00:08:51.66
THAT WORD VERY MUCH BUT IT
INVOLVES THE DEATH TO MY OWN
00:08:51.66\00:08:55.70
SELF AND CLEARLY THE DEATH TO --
ROMANS 6, 6 AND 7, KNOWING THE
00:08:55.70\00:09:04.91
OLD MAN THAT WAS CRUCIFIED WITH
HIM THAT SIN WOULD BE DONE AWAY
00:09:04.91\00:09:08.91
AND WE WILL NO LONG PER SLAVES
TO SIN, FOR HE WHO HAS DIED HAS
00:09:08.91\00:09:13.48
BEEN FREED FROM SIN AND NUMBER
5, TRUE WORSHIP INVOLVED LIVING
00:09:13.48\00:09:18.12
FOR CHRIST. WE
DON'T JUST DIE TO THE OLD
00:09:18.12\00:09:21.86
LIFE, WE ARE CALLED TO RISE UP
IN NEWNESS OF LIFE AND TO WALK
00:09:21.86\00:09:25.96
IN THAT, REGULATIONS 2:20, I
HAVE BEEN CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST,
00:09:25.96\00:09:31.63
THAT'S DEATH TO THE OLD LIFE
THAT IS NO LONGER I WHO LIVE BUT
00:09:31.63\00:09:35.07
CHRIST THAT LIVES IN ME AND
THE LIFE WHICH I NOW LIVE IN THE
00:09:35.07\00:09:38.41
FLESH I LIVE BY FAITH IN THE
SON OF GOD WHO LOVED ME AND GAVE
00:09:38.41\00:09:42.21
HIMSELF FOR ME.
THAT IS THE CHURCH AS A
00:09:42.21\00:09:47.05
SACRIFICE. LET'S
LOOK AT NUMBER 2, THE
00:09:47.05\00:09:49.05
CHURCH AS CHRIST'S
BODY. TURN WITH ME TO FIRST
00:09:49.05\00:09:53.05
CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 12, THIS
IS WHERE WE SEE PAUL'S AM IS I
00:09:53.05\00:09:57.56
DIDN'T OF CHRIST'S
CHURCH IT IS A BODY.
00:09:57.56\00:10:00.36
FIRST CORINTHIAN 12. I
LIKE READING AND WHEN YOU
00:10:00.36\00:10:04.53
START A BOOK WHAT DOES THE BOOK
USUALLY START WITH, PREFACE,
00:10:04.53\00:10:08.34
SOMETHING AT THE BEGINNING
AND SOMETIMES THAT TELLS YOU A
00:10:08.34\00:10:10.61
LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT IS GOING
TO BE HAPPENING FURTHER IN THE
00:10:10.61\00:10:14.01
BOOK SO THE, OUR PASSAGE BEGINS
IN VERSE 12 WITH THE DISCUSSION
00:10:14.01\00:10:17.95
OF THE BODY, BUT THE PREFACE
TO THAT IS THE DISCUSSION OF THE
00:10:17.95\00:10:22.95
SPIRITUAL GIFTS WHICH
ARE GIVEN TO THE CHURCH.
00:10:22.95\00:10:24.95
THOSE ARE THE GIFTS OF WISDOM
AND KNOWLEDGE AND FAITH AND
00:10:24.95\00:10:29.16
HEALING, MIRACLES, PROPHECY,
DISCERNING OF SPIRITS, DIFFERENT
00:10:29.16\00:10:33.76
TONGUES, INTERPRETATION OF
TONGUES, THERE IS A WHOLE LIST
00:10:33.76\00:10:35.66
OF GIFTS THAT THE SPIRIT GIVES
BEFORE THIS DISCUSSION OF THE
00:10:35.66\00:10:41.54
BODY. THE
INTERESTING VERSE TO ME IS
00:10:41.54\00:10:44.04
IN VERSE 11, VERSUS 11 IT
SAYS BUT ONE AND THE SAME SPIRIT
00:10:44.04\00:10:49.04
WORKS ALL OF THESE
THINGS DISTRIBUTING TO EACH ONE
00:10:49.04\00:10:53.28
INDIVIDUALLY AS
WHO -- AS HE WILLS.
00:10:53.28\00:10:56.48
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS ME?
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE ONE WHO
00:10:56.48\00:11:00.59
MADE US DIFFERENT. THE
HOLY SPIRIT IS THE ONE A WHO
00:11:00.59\00:11:04.49
GAVE US DIFFERENT
GIFTS. AND DIFFERENT CALLS.
00:11:04.49\00:11:08.00
THAT MEANS THAT THE DIFFERENCES
WE SEE IN THE BODY OF CHRIST,
00:11:08.00\00:11:13.30
THOSE ARE DIVINE.
NOW, I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT
00:11:13.30\00:11:16.91
DIFFERENCES AS WHEN WE ARGUE.
THAT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT DIVINE.
00:11:16.91\00:11:20.31
BUT THE DIFFERENCES AS IN THE
CALLING AND THE GIFTS THAT GOD
00:11:20.31\00:11:24.71
GIVES PEOPLE ARE DIVINE. SO
LET'S LOOK AT THAT AS WE LOOK
00:11:24.71\00:11:27.45
AT THE BODY OF CHRIST.
LOOK AT THE FACT THAT THESE
00:11:27.45\00:11:31.05
DIFFERENCES ARE DIVINE.
THESE ARE THE LESSONS, THERE ARE
00:11:31.05\00:11:35.99
SIX LESSONS I HAVE HERE THAT WE
CAN LEARN FROM THE CHURCH AS THE
00:11:35.99\00:11:39.93
BODY OF CHRIST.
LESSON NUMBER ONE, UNITY DOES
00:11:39.93\00:11:43.50
NOT MEAN
UNIFORMITY. READ VERSE 12.
00:11:43.50\00:11:46.90
FOR THE BODY IS ONE AND HAS MANY
MEMBERS, BUT ALL THE MEMBERS OF
00:11:46.90\00:11:51.64
THAT ONE BODY BEING MANY
ARE ONE BODY, SO ALSO IS CHRIST.
00:11:51.64\00:11:55.61
SO YOU NOTICE THAT?
THERE ARE MANY MEMBERS IN THE
00:11:55.61\00:11:58.65
BODY, AND AS WE GO ON THERE
IS THE EYES AND THE HAND AND THE
00:11:58.65\00:12:02.32
FEET, DIFFERENT PARTS OF
THE PHYSICAL BODY, THEY MAKE A
00:12:02.32\00:12:06.39
UNITED HOLE -- THEY ARE STILL
INDIVIDUAL, UNITY DOES NOT MEAN
00:12:06.39\00:12:15.10
UNIFORMITY,ED TO DOES NOT CALL
US TO BE EXACT COOKIE CUTTER
00:12:15.10\00:12:19.17
CHRISTIANS,
PRAISE THE LORD FOR THAT.
00:12:19.17\00:12:20.77
NUMBER 2 OUR DIFFERENCES
DO NOT HAVE TO DIVIDE US.
00:12:20.77\00:12:23.51
THEY CAN UNITED US. AS
LONG AS WE ARE IN CHRIST.
00:12:23.51\00:12:29.81
VERSE 13. FOR BY
ONE SPIRIT WE WERE ALL
00:12:29.81\00:12:32.01
BAN TIED INTO ONE BODY, WHETHER
JEWS OR GREEKS, SLAVES OR FREE,
00:12:32.01\00:12:36.38
AND HAVE ALL BEEN MADE
TO DRAIN INTO ONE SPIRIT.
00:12:36.38\00:12:41.62
SO JEW OR GREEK, FLAVOR FREE,
RACE, ETHNICITY, CLASS, ORIGINS,
00:12:41.62\00:12:47.13
NONE OF THAT MATTERS. WE
ALL CAN BE MADE ONE IN THE
00:12:47.13\00:12:52.10
BODY OF CHRIST. WE
ARE ALL CALLED TO BE ONE.
00:12:52.10\00:12:55.14
OUR DIFFERENCES
DON'T HAVE TO DIVIDE US.
00:12:55.14\00:12:58.04
THEY CAN UNITED US AS
LONG AS WE ARE IN THE BODY.
00:12:58.04\00:13:01.64
AS LONG AS WE ARE TOGETHER.
NUMBER 3, JEALOUSY CANNOT EXIST
00:13:01.64\00:13:07.52
IN THE BODY.
JEALOUSY CANNOT EXIST IN THE
00:13:07.52\00:13:11.85
BODY OF CHRIST. IN
FACT, IT IS ALMOST HUMOROUS
00:13:11.85\00:13:17.13
PAUL'S ANALOGY YOU READ THE NEXT
COUPLE OF VERSES, 15, THE FOOT
00:13:17.13\00:13:22.16
SHOULD SAY I AM NOT A HAND,
THEREFORE I AM NOT OF THE BODY
00:13:22.16\00:13:24.70
AND THE EAR SHOULD SAY I AM NOT
AN EYE BECAUSE I AM NOT OF THE
00:13:24.70\00:13:30.77
BODY. IT IS ALMOST
HUMOROUS, OF COURSE
00:13:30.77\00:13:32.51
YOU WOULD NOT SAY THAT, BUT YET
WE OFTEN SAY THAT, OH I AM NOT
00:13:32.51\00:13:36.75
THIS, I AM NOT THE EYE, I AM NOT
THE HAND, I AM NOT AS IMPORTANT,
00:13:36.75\00:13:39.51
RIGHT? AND WE
BECOME JEALOUS OF WHAT
00:13:39.51\00:13:44.29
GOD HAS GIVEN TO SOMEONE ELSE IN
THE CHURCH JEALOUSY CANNOT EXIST
00:13:44.29\00:13:49.89
IN THE BODY OF CHRIST.
NUMBER 4, ALL ARE ESSENTIAL TO
00:13:49.89\00:13:54.36
THE WORK. ALL ARE
EQUALLY IMPORTANT IN THE
00:13:54.36\00:14:00.94
WORK. VERSE 20
SAYS NOW INDEED THERE
00:14:00.94\00:14:03.00
ARE MANY MEMBERS YET ONE BODY
AND THE EYE CANNOT SAY TO THE
00:14:03.00\00:14:06.68
HAND, I HAVE NO NEED OF YOU.
NOR AGAIN THE HEAD TO THE FEET,
00:14:06.68\00:14:10.05
I HAVE NO NEED OF YOU.
YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A MAN WHO
00:14:10.05\00:14:14.48
HAD A TREE. HE WAS
CUTTING TREES DOWN AND A
00:14:14.48\00:14:17.72
TREE FELL ON HIS
LEG AND PINNED HIM.
00:14:17.72\00:14:20.92
NOW, THAT'S A HORRIBLE THING
AND HE WAS WITHOUT A PHONE.
00:14:20.92\00:14:22.96
HE WAS WITHOUT ANY -- NO ONE
ELSE WAS THERE AND WHAT WHERE
00:14:22.96\00:14:26.16
YOU SUPPOSED TO DO
WHEN A TREE IS ON HIS LEG?
00:14:26.16\00:14:28.10
YOU KNOW WHAT HE
DID? HE CUT IT OFF?
00:14:28.10\00:14:30.57
HE TOOK A SAW AND HE CUT IT OFF.
NOW I AM I AM JUST TELLING YOU
00:14:30.57\00:14:34.74
THAT IS EXTREME. WHEN
I HEAR THAT I WOULD NEVER
00:14:34.74\00:14:37.84
WANT TO CUT OFF -- YOU KNOW,
IF THAT HAPPENED TO HE I WOULD
00:14:37.84\00:14:40.34
NEVER WANT TO CUT OFF MY LEG AND
YET HOW WILLINGLY WE OFTEN CUT
00:14:40.34\00:14:47.95
OFF A PART OF
THE BODY OF CHRIST.
00:14:47.95\00:14:51.19
WE SAY, I DON'T NEED YOU, YOU
ARE NOT ESSENTIAL TO THE WORK OF
00:14:51.19\00:14:57.19
GOD, AND JUST AS WE WOULD NEVER
WANT TO CUT OFF A PHYSICAL PART
00:14:57.19\00:15:01.53
OF OUR BODY, WE ALMOST EAGERLY
CUT OFF OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS
00:15:01.53\00:15:08.84
SISTERS. ALL ARE
ESSENTIAL TO THE WORK.
00:15:08.84\00:15:12.64
ALL ARE EQUALLY IMPORTANT.
THERE SHOULD BE NO HIERARCHY IN
00:15:12.64\00:15:16.64
THE CHURCH. NUMBER 5.
00:15:16.64\00:15:21.38
EXERCISE CARE
INSTEAD OF COMPETITION.
00:15:21.38\00:15:25.15
DON'T CRITICIZE AND
JUDGE SOMEONE ELSE HARSHLY.
00:15:25.15\00:15:27.29
WE ARE CALLED TO BUILD UP, TAKE
CARE, HAVE COMPASSION ON THE
00:15:27.29\00:15:31.66
WEAKER PARTS OF THE
BODY. FINALLY NUMBER 6.
00:15:31.66\00:15:36.46
IF ONE MEMBER SUFFERS
WE ALL SUFFER AS WELL.
00:15:36.46\00:15:40.00
WE ALL SUFFER EQUALLY. VERSE 26.
00:15:40.00\00:15:46.24
VERSE 26. AND IF
ONE MEMBER SUFFERS ALL
00:15:46.24\00:15:49.14
THE MEMBERS SUFFER WITH IT.
OR ONE MEMBER IS HONORED ALL
00:15:49.14\00:15:53.45
MEMBERS REJOICE WITH IT. I
DON'T KNOW IF YOU EVER SUBBED
00:15:53.45\00:15:57.05
YOUR STUBBED STUBBED YOUR TOE OR
OWE BROKE YOUR TOE, YOUR WHOLE
00:15:57.05\00:16:01.62
LEG HURTS AND I HAVE EVEN GOTTEN
A FEVER WHEN I BROKE A BONE
00:16:01.62\00:16:05.19
BEFORE BECAUSE
THE BODY IS AFFECTED.
00:16:05.19\00:16:07.13
IF ONE MEMBER OF THE BODY
SUFFERS WE ALL SUFFER EQUALLY.
00:16:07.13\00:16:11.60
WE CLEARLY WON'T GET TO
THE OTHER TWO METAPHORS AND
00:16:11.60\00:16:15.44
ANALOGIES. BUT
CHRIST HAS CALLED US TO BE A
00:16:15.44\00:16:20.18
SACRIFICE AS BELIEVERS .. AND HE
HAS CALLED US TO OPERATE WITHIN
00:16:20.18\00:16:23.78
THE BODY. THAT
UNITY DOES NOT MEAN
00:16:23.78\00:16:26.61
UNIFORMITY.
DIFFERENCES DO NOT HAVE TO
00:16:26.61\00:16:28.42
DIVIDE US.
JEALOUSY CANNOT EXIST IN THE
00:16:28.42\00:16:31.92
BODY. WE ARE ALL
ESSENTIAL TO THE WORK
00:16:31.92\00:16:34.22
AND EQUALLY IMPORTANT. WE
ARE CALLED TO CARE FOR ONE
00:16:34.22\00:16:38.33
ANOTHER INSTEAD OF COAT WITH ONE
ANOTHER AND ALL SUFFER EQUALLY
00:16:38.33\00:16:42.03
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT
THING IS THE NEXT CHAPTER, FIRST
00:16:42.03\00:16:46.80
CORINTHIANS 13 THAT
LOVE COVERS EVERYTHING.
00:16:46.80\00:16:51.04
PASTOR JOHN. >> CAN
WE SAY AMEN TO THAT?
00:16:51.04\00:16:53.68
THANK YOU, JILL. I
THOUGHT SHE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH
00:16:53.68\00:16:58.65
TIME, BUT THERE ARE SOME MORE
REMAINING BUT THANK YOU FOR THAT
00:16:58.65\00:17:01.85
WONDERFUL START. NOW
WE ARE ON THE REMNANT
00:17:01.85\00:17:06.09
SERVANT THE MONDAY LESSON AND
I WOULD LIKE YOU TO TURN WITH ME
00:17:06.09\00:17:08.92
TO REVELATION CHAPTER 12
BECAUSE FIRST OF ALL IN ORDER TO
00:17:08.92\00:17:12.19
UNDERSTAND THE REMNANT SERVANT
WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THE TERM
00:17:12.19\00:17:15.96
REMNANT AND IN STUDYING THE
LESSON, YOU WILL FIND THAT THE
00:17:15.96\00:17:19.53
WORD REMNANT IS
REALLY AN OLD TESTAMENT WORD.
00:17:19.53\00:17:23.27
IT ONLY APPEARS TWICE IN THE NEW
TESTAMENT AND IT IS NOT A TERM
00:17:23.27\00:17:27.38
THAT IS NATIVE TO
THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:17:27.38\00:17:30.61
BUT IT IS FULFILLED
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:17:30.61\00:17:34.58
IT IS ESTABLISHED IN THE OLD
BUT IT IS FULFILLED IN THE NEW
00:17:34.58\00:17:37.35
BECAUSE THE VERY WORD REMNANT
DOESN'T JUST MEAN THAT WHICH IS
00:17:37.35\00:17:41.62
LEFT OR THE LAST PIECE.
IT HAS A DEEPER MEANING TO IT
00:17:41.62\00:17:45.33
AND I WANT TO WALK THROUGH THAT
AS WE GO THROUGH THE LESSON BUT
00:17:45.33\00:17:48.26
LET'S GO AHEAD AND FIND WHAT
I MIGHT REFER TO AS THE MOST
00:17:48.26\00:17:51.97
COMMON PASSAGE THAT
REFERS TO THE REMNANT.
00:17:51.97\00:17:54.57
REVELATION CHAPTER 12:17 AND
I WAS EXCITED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE
00:17:54.57\00:17:59.27
AS A PERSON WHO LOVES REVELATION
FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, IT IS NAMED
00:17:59.27\00:18:03.14
AFTER ME, BUT THEN
AGAIN YOU DIDN'T GET THAT?
00:18:03.14\00:18:07.25
I JOHN SAW, I ALWAYS LIKE THAT.
GOD HAD A WONDERFUL PLAN FOR MY
00:18:07.25\00:18:13.56
LIFE, PRAISE HIM FOR THAT.
REVELATION 12:17 I AM READING IN
00:18:13.56\00:18:17.79
THE KING JAMES VERSE VERSION
BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE WORD
00:18:17.79\00:18:21.80
REMNANT COMES IN. REST,
REMNANT IS THE LAST PART.
00:18:21.80\00:18:25.43
AND THE DRAGON WAS --
THAT THE DRAGON IS SATAN.
00:18:25.43\00:18:31.84
WAS BROUGHT, WITH ANGRY WITH A
WOMAN, THE SYMBOL OF THE CHURCH,
00:18:31.84\00:18:35.44
AND WENT TO MAKE WAR
WITH THE REMNANT OF HER SEED.
00:18:35.44\00:18:40.25
NOW, THAT TERM REMNANT OF HER
SEED, IT FIRST PLACE THE SEED IS
00:18:40.25\00:18:45.05
INTRODUCED IS IN THE BOOK
OF GENESIS, I WILL PUT ENMITY
00:18:45.05\00:18:49.16
BETWEEN THEE AND THE WOMAN,
BETWEEN THY SEED AND HER SEED.
00:18:49.16\00:18:54.23
WHEN YOU LOCHTE TRAJECTORY
OF THE ISRAEL LIGHTS I DID AN
00:18:54.23\00:18:57.93
ENTIRE SERMON CALLED THE SEA,
NOT ADVERTISING BUT IT IS AT --
00:18:57.93\00:19:03.47
BUT THE REASON I DID
THAT IS BECAUSE THE SEED IS SO
00:19:03.47\00:19:05.97
SIGNIFICANT, WHEN YOU LOOK
AT THE YOUR HONOR AT THIS OF THE
00:19:05.97\00:19:08.61
ISRAEL LIGHTS SATAN'S NUMBER ONE
PLAN WAS TO STOP THE SEED .. HE
00:19:08.61\00:19:13.52
WANTED TO PREVENT THAT
STEED FROM GERMINATING.
00:19:13.52\00:19:16.82
HE WANTED TO PREVENT CHRIST
FROM COMING INTO THE WORLD.
00:19:16.82\00:19:19.72
HE LOST IN THE FIRST ROUND
IN HEAVEN SO HIS AIM WAS TO
00:19:19.72\00:19:22.82
DETERMINE TO STOP THE SEED.
THAT'S WHY WHEN HE COULDN'T STOP
00:19:22.82\00:19:25.53
THE SEED FROM BEING PLACED
IN MARY AS A YOUNG CHILD, AS A
00:19:25.53\00:19:29.73
YOUNG GIRL, HE TRIED TO PREVENT
THE SEED FROM COMING TO LIFE OR
00:19:29.73\00:19:35.40
GROWING UP AND SO HE PUT AN
EDICT TO KILL THE FIRST-BORN,
00:19:35.40\00:19:40.14
THOSE TWO YEARS OLD AND UNDER,
WHEN HE COULDN'T DO THAT HE
00:19:40.14\00:19:43.78
TRIED TO PAINT THE LIFE OF
CHRIST WITH SAME AND PAINT HIP
00:19:43.78\00:19:47.08
AS AN OUTCAST OR PERSON
WHO WAS AN ILLEGITIMATE CHILD.
00:19:47.08\00:19:50.32
BUT WAYN'T TO
SAY SOMETHING THERE.
00:19:50.32\00:19:52.42
ONCE YOU ARE BROUGHT INTO THE
WORLD, THERE IS NO ONE, WE SAY
00:19:52.42\00:19:56.32
THIS VERY CLEARLY, NO ONE
THAT COMES INTO THE WORLD IS
00:19:56.32\00:20:01.00
ILLEGITIMATE. HOW YOU
MAY COME IN MAY NOT BE
00:20:01.00\00:20:03.70
ORDAINED OF GO AND I SAY THAT
BECAUSE I WAS BORN IN A COUPLE
00:20:03.70\00:20:09.17
THAT WAS NOT
MARRIED, BUT LOOK AT ME TODAY.
00:20:09.17\00:20:12.21
TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
SO WE ALWAYS CALL CHILDREN
00:20:12.21\00:20:16.41
ILLEGITIMATE, WHOEVER DID THAT
NEEDS TO BE BEAT TEN WITH MANY
00:20:16.41\00:20:19.65
STRIPES, BECAUSE THE
CHILD DIDN'T DO ANYTHING BAD.
00:20:19.65\00:20:22.18
THE CHILD JUST
SHOWED UP. HERE I AM.
00:20:22.18\00:20:24.69
MAYBE THAT'S WHY THEY
HID THEM WHEN THEY COME.
00:20:24.69\00:20:27.39
I DON'T KNOW. BUT THAT
WHOLE TERM ILLEGITIMATE
00:20:27.39\00:20:31.73
DOESN'T FIT CHRIST AT ALL
AND DOESN'T FIT ANY OF US.
00:20:31.73\00:20:34.50
BUT WHEN YOU FOLLOW THE SEED,
THE DEVIL IS ANGRY WITH THE FACT
00:20:34.50\00:20:38.00
HE COULD NOT
STOP CHRIST IN HEAVEN.
00:20:38.00\00:20:40.70
HE COULD NOT
DEFEAT HIM AT THE CROSS.
00:20:40.70\00:20:44.01
SO THEREFORE HE IS
GOING AFTER WHAT IS REMAINING.
00:20:44.01\00:20:47.04
AND THE DEEPER TERM, LET'S
FINISH THE REST OF IT BECAUSE
00:20:47.04\00:20:49.51
THE REMNANT IS
DESCRIBED. WHO ARE THEY?
00:20:49.51\00:20:52.11
WHICH KEEPS THE COMMANDMENTS
OF GOD AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF
00:20:52.11\00:20:54.82
JESUS CHRIST. I HAD
A WONDERFUL DISCUSSION
00:20:54.82\00:20:56.85
LAST NIGHT WITH AN ON FIRE
BIBLE WORKER AND DID MY BEST TO
00:20:56.85\00:21:02.52
CONVINCE HER TO MOVE TO
THOMPSONVILLE AND WHETHER SHE
00:21:02.52\00:21:05.93
CAUGHT THE HOOK OR NOT, I DON'T
KNOW BUT SHE WAS FIRING ME UP
00:21:05.93\00:21:08.23
AND SHE SAID SOMETHING THAT WAS
VERY INTERESTING WHICH I DON'T
00:21:08.23\00:21:11.43
OFTEN BORROW A LOT BUT THIS IS
WONDERFULLY, FIT, AND SHE SAID
00:21:11.43\00:21:16.84
WHILE GOD'S PEOPLE AND HIS
REMNANT CHURCH IS DESCRIBED AS
00:21:16.84\00:21:19.74
THOSE WHO KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS
OF GOD AND A HAVE THE TESTIMONY
00:21:19.74\00:21:22.98
OF JESUS CHRIST, THEY THERE ARE
ONLY REALLY TWO CATEGORIES, THE
00:21:22.98\00:21:28.42
JUST AND THE UNJUST. THE
FILTHY AND THE -- AND THOSE
00:21:28.42\00:21:33.12
WHO ARE NOT FILTHY, THE
HOLY AND UNHOLY, REALLY ONLY TWO
00:21:33.12\00:21:36.56
CATEGORIES SO WHEN WE GO TO
REVELATION, WE ARE NOW WHICH
00:21:36.56\00:21:42.10
CATEGORY DO YOU WANT
TO BE IN? WASN'T THAT DEP?
00:21:42.10\00:21:45.50
THANK YOU FOR THAT. WE
NOW DOWN THE ENTIRE -- WE
00:21:45.50\00:21:50.04
DISTILL CHRISTIANITY TO WHICH
CATEGORY WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE IN
00:21:50.04\00:21:52.31
THE JUST OR THE UNJUST. THE
HOLY OR THE UNHOLY, THE ONLY
00:21:52.31\00:21:55.81
TWO CATEGORIES SO SATAN HAS
TAKEN THAT SEED AND IN THE ACT
00:21:55.81\00:21:59.65
OF MULTIPLICITY HE
HAS CAUSED CONFUSION.
00:21:59.65\00:22:02.92
SO TODAY, THE GREAT QUESTION
IN KRISTENSEN.COM WHO REPRESENTS
00:22:02.92\00:22:08.99
THE SEED AND THE BIBLE IS CLEAR
.. THOSE WHO KEEP THE COMMAND.
00:22:08.99\00:22:12.76
OF GOD AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF
JESUS CHRIST BUT THAT IS NOT A
00:22:12.76\00:22:15.86
TERM OF EXCLUSIVITY
BUT A TERM OF INVITATION.
00:22:15.86\00:22:20.37
YOU GET THAT? BRINGING
OTHERS INTO IT, BUT THE
00:22:20.37\00:22:23.61
TERM, LET'S GO TO A COUPLE
MORE PASSAGES SINCE THE BIBLE
00:22:23.61\00:22:26.81
DESCRIBES THAT AND IN THE ANCHOR
BIBLE DICTIONARY THE PHRASE
00:22:26.81\00:22:30.95
REMNANT MEANS WHAT IS LEFT OF
A COMMUNITY AFTER IT UNDERGOES A
00:22:30.95\00:22:37.45
CATASTROPHE. NOW
THIS IS POWERFUL.
00:22:37.45\00:22:39.45
BECAUSE THE REMNANT, I WANT TO
BREAK IT DOWN THIS WAY, LET ME
00:22:39.45\00:22:42.89
GO FURTHER DOWN
AND BREAK IT BACK UP.
00:22:42.89\00:22:44.79
THERE ARE THREE
COMPONENTS TO THE REMNANT.
00:22:44.79\00:22:46.86
HOW MANY DID I SAY? THREE.
00:22:46.86\00:22:48.53
THERE IS A REMNANT MESSAGE.
THERE IS A REMNANT CHURCH.
00:22:48.53\00:22:51.33
AND THERE IS A
RECOMMEND FANT PEOPLE.
00:22:51.33\00:22:54.27
NOW THIS IS VERY POWERFUL
BECAUSE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE OLD
00:22:54.27\00:22:56.60
TEST.  AND WE HAVE HAD THE
PRIVILEGE, WE WERE EXCITED ABOUT
00:22:56.60\00:22:59.07
THE STUDY OF EZRA AND ANY MICAH
OVERWHELMED WE DID 13 IN THREE
00:22:59.07\00:23:03.65
DAYS BUT MAN IT HAS
BECOME ONE OF MY FAVORITE BOX.
00:23:03.65\00:23:05.98
MY WIFE AND I IF YOU WANT TO
READ A CHAPTER ABOUT THE GRACE
00:23:05.98\00:23:09.62
OF GOD, NEHEMIAH 9, AMAZING, THE
UNRELENTING WILLINGNESS ON GOD'S
00:23:09.62\00:23:16.39
PART NOT TO CUT OFF THE
REMNANT, NEHEMIAH CHAPTER 9.
00:23:16.39\00:23:19.56
LOOK AT THIS, SECOND KINGS
19:4 I AM PICKING OUT PIECES OF
00:23:19.56\00:23:23.63
THAT AND YOU WILL SEE THE
THREAD, JUST A PORTION OF THAT
00:23:23.63\00:23:27.30
SECOND KINGS 19 VERSE 4, I
AM ONLY USING A CERTAIN PORTION
00:23:27.30\00:23:31.31
THAT SAID, THEREFORE, LIFT UP
YOUR PRAYER FOR THE REMNANT THAT
00:23:31.31\00:23:36.51
IS LEFT. NOTICE
THAT IS LEFT, DENOTING
00:23:36.51\00:23:41.98
THAT SOMETHING HAPPENS THAT
THERE IS ONLY A MUST BE THAT IS
00:23:41.98\00:23:45.59
LEFT. SOMETHING HAPPENED.
00:23:45.59\00:23:47.39
SECOND KINGS 19 VERSE 30.
AND THE REMNANT WHO HAVE ESCAPED
00:23:47.39\00:23:52.83
OF THE HOUSE OF JUTA SHALL AGAIN
TAKE ROOT DOWNWARD AND BE A
00:23:52.83\00:23:57.07
FRUIT UPWARD, SO ROOTS TWO
DOWNWARD, FRUITS GO UPWARD,
00:23:57.07\00:24:00.97
NOTICE WHAT HAPPENS.
THE REMNANT WHO HAVE ESCAPED
00:24:00.97\00:24:04.07
SOME CATASTROPHE
OCCURRED THAT THEY MADE IT OUT.
00:24:04.07\00:24:06.17
SOME PEOPLE MAY SAY,
WELL, HOW MANY SURVIVED?
00:24:06.17\00:24:08.78
THEY ARE THE REMNANT.
ANOTHER ASPECT EZRA 9:8, LET'S
00:24:08.78\00:24:17.95
LOOK AT THAT. AND YOU
CAN TURN THERE QUICKLY
00:24:17.95\00:24:20.32
IF YOU COULD, BUT IF NOT
I WILL GO AHEAD AND READ IT.
00:24:20.32\00:24:22.66
AND NOW FOR A LITTLE WHILE,
GRACE HAS BEEN SHOWN FROM THE
00:24:22.66\00:24:27.60
LORD OUR GOD TO LEAVE US
A RECOMMEND FANT TO ESCAPE.
00:24:27.60\00:24:33.67
NOTICE, ALWAYS AFTER SOME
CATASTROPHIC EVENT SOME SHAKING
00:24:33.67\00:24:36.67
AND WE KNOW THAT WHEN THE
REMNANT RETURNED NEHEMIAH IS
00:24:36.67\00:24:41.88
INTRODUCED, THE BOOK, THE
REMNANT, IS IN DISREPAIR AND
00:24:41.88\00:24:47.98
DISCOURAGED.
THEY ARE BROKEN DOWN.
00:24:47.98\00:24:49.72
EVERYTHING ABOUT THE REMNANT
IS NOT WHERE GOD WANTS IT TO BE.
00:24:49.72\00:24:51.99
AND THAT'S A
FITTING PICTURE OF US TODAY.
00:24:51.99\00:24:54.69
WE HAVE A REMNANT MESSAGE.
 THIS IS A REMNANT CHURCH.
00:24:54.69\00:24:58.03
BUT IN MANY CASE IT IS PEOPLE
OF GOD, THE REMNANT ARE IN
00:24:58.03\00:25:01.56
DISREPAIR. AND THE
QUESTION IS, HOW MANY
00:25:01.56\00:25:04.70
ARE GOING TO BE LEFT?  AFTER
THIS GREAT CATASTROPHE OCCURS?
00:25:04.70\00:25:09.84
AND WHAT IS THE CATASTROPHE
FOR THE REMNANT CHURCH TODAY?
00:25:09.84\00:25:13.54
THE SHAKING, THE SHIFTING,
HOW MANY ARE GOING TO BE LEFT?
00:25:13.54\00:25:17.08
BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THE REMNANT
CHURCH IS MADE UP OF TWO GROUPS.
00:25:17.08\00:25:24.55
FIVE WIVES, FIVE, FIVE
WISE, FIVE FOOLISH, WE CANNOT BY
00:25:24.55\00:25:29.06
LOCKING AT THE EXTERNAL
DETERMINE WHICH CATEGORY ANYBODY
00:25:29.06\00:25:31.06
IS IN BUT WHAT MADE
THAT CLEAR TO PETER?
00:25:31.06\00:25:34.46
SHALL I GO OUT AND ROOT
OUT -- NO, YOU DON'T HAVE THAT
00:25:34.46\00:25:38.23
DISCRETION, MY
ANGELS WILL DO THAT.
00:25:38.23\00:25:40.34
ANOTHER PASSAGE.
NEHEMIAH, EZRA 9:14, ONCE AGAIN
00:25:40.34\00:25:44.57
THE LORD SAYS, WOULD YOU NOT
BE ANGRY WITH US UNTIL YOU HAVE
00:25:44.57\00:25:49.81
CONSUMED US SO TERE WOULD
BE NO REMNANT OR SURVIVOR?
00:25:49.81\00:25:53.31
ONCE AGAIN LOOK AT THIS, WHO
IS GOING TO SURVIVE THE ANGER OF
00:25:53.31\00:25:56.42
THE LORD? AND THEN
HE GOES ON TO SAY, FOR
00:25:56.42\00:26:00.39
WE ARE LEFT AS A
REMNANT, AS IT IS THIS DAY.
00:26:00.39\00:26:04.43
HERE WE ARE BEFORE YOU IN OUR
GUILT, THOUGH NO ONE CAN STAND
00:26:04.43\00:26:09.66
BEFORE YOU BECAUSE OF
THIS. THE REMNANT CAN BE BEST
00:26:09.66\00:26:13.07
DESCRIBED THEN AS THOSE THAT
REMAIN AFTER THE SHAKING AND THE
00:26:13.07\00:26:16.64
SHIFTING SO THIS IS VITALLY
IMPORTANT AND THIS IS WHERE OUR
00:26:16.64\00:26:19.51
DEDICATION COMES IN BECAUSE
MANY OF US HAVEN'T REALLY GONE
00:26:19.51\00:26:22.44
THROUGH A SHIFTING OR A
SHAKING YET IN OUR LIVES.
00:26:22.44\00:26:25.65
AND THAT'S WHY WHEN WE LOOK
AT THE SEASON OF THE STRESS THAT
00:26:25.65\00:26:29.12
THEY TALK ABOUT IN THE
GREAT CONTROVERSY, THE SEASON OF
00:26:29.12\00:26:31.92
DISTRESS AND ANGUISH THAT IS
BEFORE US, AFTER WE -- AFTER WE
00:26:31.92\00:26:36.49
SURVIVE THAT, THAT IS THE
DISTILLED GROUP THAT SATAN NOW
00:26:36.49\00:26:41.73
PUTS ON HIS FULL ARMOR AND SAYS,
THEY ARE THE ONES WE HAVE GOT TO
00:26:41.73\00:26:47.87
GET RID OF BECAUSE THEY
SURVIVED THE BEST THAT WE HAVE
00:26:47.87\00:26:52.01
HAD TO THROW AT THEM. SO
RIGHT NOW, WHILE WE HAVE THE
00:26:52.01\00:26:56.88
REMNANT CHURCH, AND THE
REMNANT MESSAGE, I WILL BE VERY
00:26:56.88\00:27:00.58
RESPECTFUL BY SAYING THE DEVIL
IS NOT THREATENED BY SOME OF US.
00:27:00.58\00:27:06.22
SOMEBODY ONCE SAID IF YOU DON'T
RUN INTO THE DEVIL YOU BOTH ARE
00:27:06.22\00:27:09.06
GOING IN THE SAME DIRECTION.
IF YOU HAVE NO CONFLICT WITH
00:27:09.06\00:27:18.67
HIM, YOU ARE GOING -- IF YOU
DON'T BUTT HEADS YOU ARE GOING
00:27:18.67\00:27:21.77
IN THE SAME DIRECTION.
SO THE REMNANT IS POWERFUL.
00:27:21.77\00:27:24.27
THE REMNANT MENTAL,
WHAT IS THE REMNANT MESSAGE?
00:27:24.27\00:27:27.38
THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL OR THE
EVERLASTING GOSPEL HAS ALWAYS
00:27:27.38\00:27:31.38
BEEN SALVATION BY
CHRIST IN GRACE ALONE.
00:27:31.38\00:27:34.58
BE 2 REMNANT MESSAGE HAS A
REMNANT MESSAGE ATTACHED TO IT.
00:27:34.58\00:27:38.82
BECAUSE YOU COULD NOT PREACH
THE REMNANT MESSAGE OF THE THREE
00:27:38.82\00:27:42.12
ANGELS UNTIL THE REMNANT
TIME. UNTIL THE LATTER DAYS.
00:27:42.12\00:27:48.13
EVERY NATION, TONGUE AND PEOPLE,
YOU CAN'T PRESSURE THAT IN
00:27:48.13\00:27:52.07
GENESIS. THE LORD
HAD THE WILL TO PREACH
00:27:52.07\00:27:54.20
THAT BUT HE WOULD NOT SUCCUMB
TO HIS GOINS SO UNTIL THE LORD
00:27:54.20\00:27:58.57
REESTABLISHED AND BROUGHT ARE
A REMNANT THROUGH THE DARK AGES
00:27:58.57\00:28:01.44
AND RAISED UP A REMNANT MESSAGE
IN THE 1,800S, AND STARTED
00:28:01.44\00:28:06.85
ESTABLISHING A REMNANT PEOPLE WE
HAVE A GOD-GIVEN OBLIGATION TO
00:28:06.85\00:28:10.89
PROCLAIM A REMNANT MESSAGE WHICH
IS IN FACT TO INCLUDE REVELATION
00:28:10.89\00:28:15.32
18 TO PULL THE
REMNANTS TOGETHER.
00:28:15.32\00:28:18.76
THAT REVELATION 18 IS
IS THE CALL OF THE REMNANT.
00:28:18.76\00:28:21.86
AND WHERE ARE
THEY? COME OUT OF HER.
00:28:21.86\00:28:24.80
THEY ARE EVERYWHERE.
THEY WILL BE ALLEGIANT TO THE
00:28:24.80\00:28:29.97
REMNANT MENTAL. SO
WHILE I AM IN THE REMNANT
00:28:29.97\00:28:31.94
CHURCH AND PROCLAIMING THE
REMNANT MESSAGE I WANT TO BE
00:28:31.94\00:28:36.95
LEFT AFTER THE
SHAKING AND THE SHIFTING.
00:28:36.95\00:28:39.81
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
HERE WE ARE AND ONE LAST
00:28:39.81\00:28:41.35
COMPONENT I WANT
TO ADD VERY QUICKLY.
00:28:41.35\00:28:43.65
BECAUSE I KNOW THIS IS THE PART
OF THE LESSON AND I WANT TO ASK
00:28:43.65\00:28:45.95
THE QUESTION. WHEN THE
LORD WAS ANGRY WITH THE
00:28:45.95\00:28:51.46
ISRAELITES, WHEN THE LORD WAS
ANGRY WITH THE ISRAEL LIGHTS AND
00:28:51.46\00:28:55.33
MOSES INTERCEDED AND THE LORD
RELENTED .. I WANT TO MAKE IT
00:28:55.33\00:28:58.90
VERY CLEAR, MOSES
DIDN'T CHANGE GOD'S MIND.
00:28:58.90\00:29:02.74
IT IS ALMOST MAKING
MAN THE CONTROLLER OF GOD.
00:29:02.74\00:29:07.68
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT GOD IS NOT A
MAN THAT HE SHOULD LIE NOR A SON
00:29:07.68\00:29:11.98
OF MAN THAT HE SHOULD REPENT
SO WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED THERE?
00:29:11.98\00:29:15.52
THAT WAS THE ONE INSTANCE IN THE
BIBLE WHERE MOSES WAS A FIGURE
00:29:15.52\00:29:20.32
OF CHRIST. SECOND
REASON WHY THE LORD
00:29:20.32\00:29:27.93
RELENTED WAS HE WAS 415, AND I
KNOW WE WILL ALL IDENTIFY, WHEN
00:29:27.93\00:29:32.70
WE HAVE FALLEN INTO
SIN, THE WAGE OF SIN IS --
00:29:32.70\00:29:35.97
>> DELAWARE. >> WHY
ARE WE ARE STILL ALIVE WE
00:29:35.97\00:29:41.04
HAVE A HIGH PRIEST WHO
SYMPATHIZES WITH OUR WEAKNESSES.
00:29:41.04\00:29:44.48
BUT WHEN WE REPENT
HE RELENGTHS. AMEN.
00:29:44.48\00:29:49.88
PRAISE THE LORD. >> BRIAN.
00:29:49.88\00:29:52.12
>> I SO ENJOY SABBATH SCHOOL
PANEL BECAUSE AS I AM SITTING
00:29:52.12\00:29:56.12
HERE LISTENING TO EACH AND EVERY
ONE OF YOU YOU GUYS UP HERE ON
00:29:56.12\00:30:00.13
ON THE PANEL, I LEARN 0 SO MUCH,
AMEN AND SUCH A BLESSING TO SIT
00:30:00.13\00:30:03.63

INCREDIBLE LIST, THERE IS SO
MUCH INFORMATION THERE AND IT IS
00:30:07.50\00:30:11.11
AWESOME, AMAZING BIBLICAL
INFORMATION AND I JUST GLEAN AND
00:30:11.11\00:30:14.41
PASTOR MCCAIN IS LIKE DRINKING

NOLLY, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM,

PASTOR KENNY, IT IS JUST A
BLESSING TO BE A PART OF THIS
00:30:21.28\00:30:23.55
WONDERFUL PANEL.
TUESDAY'S LESSON IS ENTITLED
00:30:23.55\00:30:27.92
REACHING SOULS. IS IT
IMPORTANT TO REACH SOULS?
00:30:27.92\00:30:30.86
IS GOD IN THE
BUSINESS OF REACHING SOULS?
00:30:30.86\00:30:32.69
I BELIEVE THAT
WITH ALL OF MY HEART.
00:30:32.69\00:30:35.33
AND, IN FACT, IT BRINGS ME
BACK A FEW YEARS BACK TO 2013, I
00:30:35.33\00:30:40.64
REMEMBER VERY CLEARLY THERE WAS
A GROUP OF YOUNG ADULTS, A GROUP
00:30:40.64\00:30:45.11
OF YOUNG KIDS FRESH OUT OF HIGH
SCHOOL AND COLLEGE THAT HAD A
00:30:45.11\00:30:50.45
MEETING TWO OR THREE TIMES
A WEEK HAVING BIBLE STUDY IN A
00:30:50.45\00:30:52.88
LIVING ROOM IN ARKANSAS.
AND WE, INCLUDING MYSELF AND
00:30:52.88\00:30:59.05
MYSELF, MY WIFE, STEPHANIE, MY
BROTHER, DAKOTA, HIS WIFE ANNA
00:30:59.05\00:31:03.63
AND OUR FRIEND JORDAN AND A FEW
OTHERS WE WERE ALL MEETING TWO
00:31:03.63\00:31:06.59
OR THREE TIMES A WEEK AND WE
WERE HAVING A SPIRITUAL REVIVAL
00:31:06.59\00:31:09.43
IN OUR LIVING ROOM AS WE WERE
STUDYING THE WORD OF GOD BUT
00:31:09.43\00:31:12.07
THERE CAME THAT MOMENT THIS
TIME WHERE WE WERE LIKE YOU KNOW
00:31:12.07\00:31:15.17
WHAT? AS WE WERE
COMING TO LEARN MORE
00:31:15.17\00:31:17.07
ABOUT AND COMING TO GROW AND
KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS JESUS OF
00:31:17.07\00:31:20.38
THE BIBLE WE BEGAN ASKING THE
QUESTION, WHAT ARE WE GOING DO
00:31:20.38\00:31:24.41
AMOUNT? IT, YOU
KNOW, WE KNOW THIS
00:31:24.41\00:31:26.78
WONDERFUL GOD, HE IS SUCH A
WONDERFUL SAVIOR BUT HOW MANY
00:31:26.78\00:31:29.25
PEOPLE OUT THERE DON'T KNOW THIS
JESUS AND WE BEGIN ASKING THE
00:31:29.25\00:31:33.36
QUESTION, WHAT ARE
WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
00:31:33.36\00:31:35.36
WELL IT LED US TO BASICALLY
ENROLL AND ENLIST IN WHAT IS
00:31:35.36\00:31:39.33
KNOWN TODAY IT IS A AMAZING
CENTER OF EVANGELISM, I HAVE TO
00:31:39.33\00:31:45.70
GIVE MY SHOUT OUT TO
AFCO, CHANGED MY LIFE.
00:31:45.70\00:31:50.67
AND I AM PUTTING THAT IN THERE
BECAUSE THIS LESSON BEGINS WITH
00:31:50.67\00:31:54.38
A POWERFUL QUOTE FROM THE
SPIRIT OF PROPHECY, FOUND IN THE
00:31:54.38\00:31:57.88
MINISTRY OF HEALING PAGE 143,
OUR ENTIRE AFCO SESSION, THAT
00:31:57.88\00:32:04.65
FOUR MONTH SESSION EACH AND
EVERY DAY GOING TO CLASS, YOU
00:32:04.65\00:32:08.22
KNOW, ATTENDING ALL ALL OF
THE WONDERFUL EVANGELIST CLASSES
00:32:08.22\00:32:12.76
THEY WERE TEACHING US HOW TO
WIN SOULS AND NINE STORE TO THE
00:32:12.76\00:32:16.06
NEEDS OF OTHERS, IT WAS ALL
CENTRALIZED ON FOUNDATION OF
00:32:16.06\00:32:18.70
THIS FAMOUS QUOTE. THIS
QUOTE FROM THE MINISTRY OF
00:32:18.70\00:32:21.94
HEALING, 143 IS ONE OF ELLEN'S
TOP TWO OR THREE QUOTE THAT MOST
00:32:21.94\00:32:26.47
PEOPLE RECOGNIZE VERY
CLEARLY BUT NOTICE WHAT IT SAYS.
00:32:26.47\00:32:29.08
IT IS VERY PROFOUND. SHE
STARTS BY SAYING, CHRIST'S
00:32:29.08\00:32:34.25
METHOD ALONE.
LET'S STOP RIGHT THERE.
00:32:34.25\00:32:37.62
OKAY? THERE IS A
SCRIPTURE SOMEWHERE,
00:32:37.62\00:32:39.89
IT SAYS SOMETHING ALONG THE
LINES OF 27 LORDS, 14,000 SAVES
00:32:39.89\00:32:48.03
AND 15 BAPTISMS,
DOES THAT SOUND FAMILIAR?
00:32:48.03\00:32:53.23
ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE
BAPTISM, AND WHAT DOES SHE SAY
00:32:53.23\00:32:58.44
HERE? CHRIST'S
METHOD ALONE.  THERE IS
00:32:58.44\00:33:01.74
NO OTHER METHOD, MY FRIENDS YOU
READ THE BIBLE FROM GENERAL S
00:33:01.74\00:33:05.25
REVELATION IF YOU WANT TO KNOW
HOW TO REACH SOULS THERE IS ONLY
00:33:05.25\00:33:07.48
ONE EXAMPLE, THERE IS ONLY ONE
WAY IN ALL OF SCRIPTURE AND THAT
00:33:07.48\00:33:11.39
IS CHRIST'S METHOD ALONE THAT
WILL WIN AND REACH SOULS, AMEN.
00:33:11.39\00:33:15.12
SO SHE CONTINUES, CHRIST'S
METHOD ALONE WILL GIVE TRUE
00:33:15.12\00:33:18.89
SUCCESS IN REACHING THE PEOPLE.
THE SAVIOR, NOTICE THIS, SHE
00:33:18.89\00:33:23.57
DESCRIBES HOW THE SAVIOR MINGLED
WITH MEN AS ONE WHO DESIRED
00:33:23.57\00:33:28.00
THEIR GOOD. HE SHOWED
HIS SYMPATHY FOR THEM,
00:33:28.00\00:33:31.81
MINISTERED TO THEIR
NEEDS AND WON THEIR CONFIDENCE.
00:33:31.81\00:33:34.38
SO NOTICE HE HAD DONE ALL
OF THAT AND THEN ONCE HE HAD
00:33:34.38\00:33:37.61
MINISTERED TO THEIR NEEDS AND
DESIRED THEIR GOODS AND GAINED
00:33:37.61\00:33:41.12
AND WON THEIR CONFIDENCE THEM HE
MADE THEM FOLLOW ME AND SHE GOES
00:33:41.12\00:33:45.15
ON TO DESCRIBE
HOW THAT LOOKS LIKE.
00:33:45.15\00:33:46.86
SHE SAYS THE POOR ARE TO BE
RELIEVED, THE SICK CARED FOR,
00:33:46.86\00:33:50.79
THE SORROW AND THE BE PROCEED
COMFORTED, AND THE IGNORANT
00:33:50.79\00:33:56.00
INSTRUCTED. THE
INEXPERIENCED COUNSELED, WE
00:33:56.00\00:33:58.60
ARE TO WOAP WITH THOSE THAT
WEEP AND REJOICE WITH THOSE THAT
00:33:58.60\00:34:03.07
REJOICE. CHRIST'S METHOD ALONE.
00:34:03.07\00:34:05.34
YOU SEE, EVANGELISM IS AN
INTEGRAL PART OF FOLLOWING THE
00:34:05.34\00:34:10.28
EXAMPLE OF CHRIST AND, YOU KNOW,
IT WAS A FEW YEARS AGO I WAS
00:34:10.28\00:34:13.95
ATTENDING THIS CERTAIN CHURCH
AND I REMEMBER ONE OF THE ELDERS
00:34:13.95\00:34:17.05
AS WE WERE DISCUSSING AND
I WAS ENCOURAGING THEM TO DO
00:34:17.05\00:34:20.06
EVANGELISM, I REMEMBER ONE
OF THE ELDERS OF THIS PARTICULAR
00:34:20.06\00:34:23.69
CHURCH, VERY SHOCKINGLY SPOKE UP
AND SAID WELL DO WE REALLY NEED
00:34:23.69\00:34:26.73
TO GO OUT THERE TO THEM?  I
MEAN THEY KNOW WE ARE RIGHT OVER
00:34:26.73\00:34:30.13
HERE. WE HAVE BEEN HERE FOR MANY
00:34:30.13\00:34:31.43
YEARS, WHY DON'T
THEY JUST COME TO US.
00:34:31.43\00:34:37.34
NOTICE, NOTICE THE COMMISSION
FROM CYST TO HIS APOSTLES IN
00:34:37.34\00:34:42.44
MATTHEW CHAPTER 10:1 THROUGH 8,
NOTICE WHAT HE SAYS HERE, AS YOU
00:34:42.44\00:34:47.72
GO. OKAY?
00:34:47.72\00:34:48.75
SO DID CHRIST GO TO THEM OR
WAIT FOR THEM TO COME TO HIM?
00:34:48.75\00:34:51.69
HE WENT TO
THEM, HE WENT TO THEM.
00:34:51.69\00:34:55.46
HE MIX AND MINGLED WITH THE
PEOPLE AND WON THEIR CONFIDENCE.
00:34:55.46\00:34:59.39
IT SAYS AND AS YOU GO, NOTICE,
PREACH, SAYING THE KINGDOM OF
00:34:59.39\00:35:03.90
HEAVEN IS AT HAND.
HEAL THE SICK, CLEANSE THE
00:35:03.90\00:35:07.67
LEPERS, RAISE THE
DEAD, CAST OUT DEMONS.
00:35:07.67\00:35:11.37
FREELY YOU HAVE RECEIVED -- I
LOVE, THIS AND REALLY GIVE, YOU
00:35:11.37\00:35:15.14
KNOW WHAT GOD IS SAYING
IN THIS PARTICULAR PASSAGE?
00:35:15.14\00:35:17.81
HE IS SAYING LOOK I HAVE DONE
ALL OF THIS GOOD STUFF FOR YOU.
00:35:17.81\00:35:20.22
I HAVE GIVEN TO YOU
AND PROVIDED FOR YOU.
00:35:20.22\00:35:22.52
I HAVE GIVEN MY LIFE
FOR YOU. I HAVE LOVED YOU.
00:35:22.52\00:35:27.32
WITH A LOVE BEYOND MEASURE.
NOW I WANT YOU TO GO DO THAT TO
00:35:27.32\00:35:29.99
MY PEOPLE. I WANT
YOU TO TWO DO THAT TO
00:35:29.99\00:35:32.39
YOUR BROTHERS AND
SISTERS IN CHRIST.
00:35:32.39\00:35:34.73
YOU SEE IF WE WERE EVER GOING
REACH THE HEARTS OF THOSE AROUND
00:35:34.73\00:35:37.27
US WE MUST LEARN TO MINISTER
TO THEIR NEEDS, MY FRIENDS, AND
00:35:37.27\00:35:40.44
THAT IS VITALLY IMPORTANT, YOU
KNOW, WE LIVE IN THIS -- I THINK
00:35:40.44\00:35:43.27
WE LIVE IN THE
GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.
00:35:43.27\00:35:47.14
AMERICA. IT IS A
WONDERFUL COUNTRY TO
00:35:47.14\00:35:48.78
LIVE IN AND I AM VERY
BLESSED TO BE AN AMERICAN.
00:35:48.78\00:35:51.18
BUT I CAN TELL YOU WITH THIS
WESTERN CULTURAL MINDSET, THIS
00:35:51.18\00:35:57.22
CULTURAL WHAT DO WE CALL IT,
THE AMERICAN DREAM, ALMOST HAS
00:35:57.22\00:36:00.09
TURNED INTO THE AMERICAN
NIGHTMARE FOR MANY PEOPLE.
00:36:00.09\00:36:03.29
BECAUSE WE HAVE COME TO THE
CONCLUSION ALMOST THAT AMERICAN
00:36:03.29\00:36:06.66
DREAM IS ALMOST -- IT IS
SO SELFISH, ALMOST A SELFISH
00:36:06.66\00:36:09.56
CONNOTATION TO IT THAT WE
HAVE BECOME SO SELF PROMOTING IN
00:36:09.56\00:36:13.17
ADVANCING SELF, ADVANCING SELF,
ADVANCING SELF TO GET WHATS WHAT
00:36:13.17\00:36:17.21
IT IS WE WANT BUT AT THE OWNED
OF THE DAY MY REND, CHRIST IS
00:36:17.21\00:36:20.24
SAYING WHAT ABOUT YOUR BROTHERS
AND SISTERS?  I WANT YOU TO
00:36:20.24\00:36:22.58
REACH THEM? I DIED
FOR THEM JUST LIKE I DIED
00:36:22.58\00:36:24.41
FOR YOU, AMEN, PRAISE THE LORD.
FIRST PETER CHAPTER 2, VERSE
00:36:24.41\00:36:28.35
11 AND 12, I LOVE THIS, HE SAYS,
BELOVED I BEG YOU AS SOJOURNERS
00:36:28.35\00:36:33.89
AND PILGRIMS, ABSTAIN FROM
FLESHLY LUST WHICH WORE AGAINST
00:36:33.89\00:36:37.09
THE SOUL. HAVING
YOUR CONDUCT HONORABLE
00:36:37.09\00:36:40.50
AMONG THE GENTILES THAT MEANS
YOU KNOW WHAT IF YOU MY PEOPLE
00:36:40.50\00:36:43.16
AND MY REMNANT, THERE IS
THE, SOME OTHER PEOPLE NOT
00:36:43.16\00:36:46.57
TECHNICALLY A PART OF THAT
RECOMMEND THAN THE YET BUT I
00:36:46.57\00:36:48.27
HAVE SHEEP OF ANOTHER FOLD YOU
DON'T KNOW OF I WANT THEM TO BE
00:36:48.27\00:36:51.97
A PART OF THIS REMNANT
TOO. HE SAYS NOTICE AMONG THE
00:36:51.97\00:36:54.98
GENTILES THAT THEY SPEAK AGAINST
YOU AS EVILDOERS, THEY MAY I BE
00:36:54.98\00:36:59.28
YOUR GOOD WORKS, WHICH THEY
OBSERVE, GLORIFY GOD IN THE DAY
00:36:59.28\00:37:03.72
OF VISITATION. SO HE
SAYS, BY YOUR GOOD WORKS
00:37:03.72\00:37:06.32
AND I AM REMINDED OF REVELATION,
TO ALL SEVEN CHURCH AGES, WHAT
00:37:06.32\00:37:10.39
DID HE SAY, I KNOW YOUR FAITH,
YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES WE OFTEN GO
00:37:10.39\00:37:14.36
TO THAT SCRIPTURE OF PAUL,
WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH
00:37:14.36\00:37:17.37
FAITH, YOU KNOW, IT IS
INTERESTING, CHRIST COULD EDES I
00:37:17.37\00:37:19.37
WILL HAVE SAID I KNOW YOUR TATE
BUT HE DIDN'T SAY THAT TO EACH
00:37:19.37\00:37:24.24
OF THE -- HE SAID I KNOW YOUR
WORKS BECAUSE HE IS LOOKING TO
00:37:24.24\00:37:29.14
SEE HOW WE ARE LOVING
AND TREATING EACH OTHER.
00:37:29.14\00:37:32.05
PHILIPPIANS CHAPTER 2:14 AND
15, I LOVE THIS, DO ALL THINGS
00:37:32.05\00:37:37.35
WITHOUT COMPLAINING AND
DISPUTING THAT YOU MAY BECOME
00:37:37.35\00:37:40.76
BLAMELESS AND HARMLESS, CHILDREN
OF GOD WITHOUT FAULT IN THE
00:37:40.76\00:37:44.06
MIDST OF A CROOKED AND PERVERSE
GENERATION, AMONG WHOM YOU SHINE
00:37:44.06\00:37:49.70
AS LIGHTS IN THE WORLD. SO
HERE WE ARE, YOU KNOW, WE ALL
00:37:49.70\00:37:52.13
HAVE BEEN IN THAT
SIMPLE PRISON CELL, RIGHT?
00:37:52.13\00:37:54.70
WE WERE IN THAT PRISON CELL AND
CHAINED TO THE TO THE WALL AND
00:37:54.70\00:37:57.77
JESUS COMES IN AND SETS US FREE
BECAUSE WE HUMBLE OURSELVES TO
00:37:57.77\00:38:00.84
HIM AND SAY LORD I RECOGNIZE
THAT MY BACK IS AGAINST THE WALL
00:38:00.84\00:38:03.81
AND I NEED YOU, I NEED A SAVE
YOUR AND SO HE SET UP FREE FROM
00:38:03.81\00:38:08.22
THOSE CHAINS AND HE SAYS NOW
CHECK THE DOOR AND WE GO TO THE
00:38:08.22\00:38:11.22
DOOR OF THE DUNGEON OR DOOR OF
THE PRISON AND WE CHECK DOOR AND
00:38:11.22\00:38:13.96
IT IS OPEN AND WE WALK OUT AND
WE ARE FREE IN JESUS CHRIST BUT
00:38:13.96\00:38:17.59
YOU KNOW WHAT WE SAYS NOW? I
WANT YOU TO TWO BACK INTO THAT
00:38:17.59\00:38:21.10
PRISON. IT IS A
DARK SINFUL PRISON AND I
00:38:21.10\00:38:23.83
WANT YOU AS A BEACON OF LIGHT TO
GO BACK INTO THAT PRISON BECAUSE
00:38:23.83\00:38:26.84
I HAVE MORE LOST SOULS IN THERE,
PEOPLE IN NEED OF THE LOVE OF
00:38:26.84\00:38:29.74
JESUS THAT THEY
NEED TO SEE THROUGH YOU.
00:38:29.74\00:38:32.77
AMEN. SO NOTICE
WHAT IT CONTINUES TO
00:38:32.77\00:38:34.44
SAY HERE. WE JUST
READ PHILIPPIANS CHAPTER
00:38:34.44\00:38:37.51
2 SO WE NEED TO GO BACK IN
THE PRISONS AND SHINE OUR LIGHT.
00:38:37.51\00:38:40.52
THE WORLD MAY BE WICKED MY
FRIEND BUT GOD STILL WANTS OUR
00:38:40.52\00:38:44.59
REPUTATION AND WITNESS TO BE A
PECULIAR RIGHTEOUS EXAMPLE TOWN
00:38:44.59\00:38:47.99
THEM. WE MUST LIVE OUT WHAT WE
00:38:47.99\00:38:50.29
PRESSURE. OTHER
BUSINESS, OUR WITNESS IS
00:38:50.29\00:38:54.30
TAINTED. I WANT
YOU TO TURN WITH ME TO
00:38:54.30\00:38:56.06
FIRST JOHN CHAPTER 3.
PROBABLY OF ALL THE PASSAGES I
00:38:56.06\00:38:59.33
COULD READ THIS MORNING
AND SHARE, FIRST JOHN -- WE ARE
00:38:59.33\00:39:02.87
GOING TO GO TO BROTHER FIRST
JOHN, CHAPTER 3, WE ARE GOING TO
00:39:02.87\00:39:05.47
READ VERSES 16 THROUGH 18, VERY
SIMPLE BUT VERY PROPOUND, I LOVE
00:39:05.47\00:39:09.38
THIS TEXT. AND IF
THERE IS ANYTHING THAT
00:39:09.38\00:39:11.41
COULD SUM UP WHAT WE ARE TALKING
ABOUT IN REACHING SOULS, IT IS
00:39:11.41\00:39:14.45
THIS PASSAGE RIGHT HERE.
FIRST JOHN CHAPTER 3, VERSES 16
00:39:14.45\00:39:19.29
THROUGH 18 THE BIBLE SAYS BY
THIS WE KNOW LOVE, BECAUSE HE
00:39:19.29\00:39:25.29
LAID DOWN HIS LIVE FOR US, AND
WE ALSO OUGHT TO LAY DOWN OUR
00:39:25.29\00:39:30.77
LIVES FOR THE BRETHREN.
BUT WHOEVER HAS THIS WORLD'S
00:39:30.77\00:39:36.84
GOODS AND SEES HIS BROTHER IN
NEED AND SHUTS UP HIS HEART FROM
00:39:36.84\00:39:42.18
HIM HOW DOES THE
LOVE OF GOD ABIDE IN HIM?
00:39:42.18\00:39:45.88
HE SAYS MY LITTLE CHILDREN LET
US NOT LOVE IN WORD OR IN TONGUE
00:39:45.88\00:39:50.62
BUT IN DODO AND IN TRUTH.
YOU KNOW, CAN I SPEAK PLAIN THIS
00:39:50.62\00:39:56.49
MORNING? I WANT TO
BE TRANSPARENT WITH
00:39:56.49\00:39:58.66
YOU. AS MUCH AS I
CAN, BUT RESPECTFUL
00:39:58.66\00:40:02.93
RESPECTFUL. WE
CAN ALL AS SEVENTH DAY
00:40:02.93\00:40:05.13
ADVENTISTS HAVE THE TRUTH
AND LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING AS
00:40:05.13\00:40:08.67
SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISTS WE HAVE
THE TRUTH, WE GLOW THE TRUTH S
00:40:08.67\00:40:10.77
WE CAN POINT TO THE TRUTH,
WE CAN PREACH THE TRUTH, WE CAN
00:40:10.77\00:40:13.84
KNOW THIS BIBLE FROM COVER
TO COVER AND BE THE GREATEST
00:40:13.84\00:40:18.45
THEOLOGIANS AND GREATEST
TEACHERS AND PREACHERS THE WORLD
00:40:18.45\00:40:21.58
HAS TO GIVE. BUT MY
FRIENDS AT THE END OF THE
00:40:21.58\00:40:24.29
DAY, THERE IS A LOT OF THAT
I FEEL HAVE A FEARFUL LOOKING
00:40:24.29\00:40:28.12
FORWARD TO JUDGMENT IF WE DON'T
COME TO KNOW THE GOD OF LOVE WE
00:40:28.12\00:40:32.63
ARE PROAMPG ABOUT AND SHARING
BECAUSE WE CAN HAVE THE TRUTH
00:40:32.63\00:40:34.56
ALL DAY LONG AND MET INDIVIDUALS
WHO, YOU KNOW, THEY SAY WELL,
00:40:34.56\00:40:37.13
YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE SAYS
CRY ALOUD AND SPARE NOT, SHOW MY
00:40:37.13\00:40:41.57
PEOPLE THEIR IS SINS, YES,
WE ARE TO FOLLOW THT COMMAND AND
00:40:41.57\00:40:44.44
THERE IS AN APPROPRIATE TIME TO
DO SO, BUT AT THE OWNED THE DAY
00:40:44.44\00:40:47.21
MY FRIENDS, WE ARE POSSESS GOING
TO WIN ANYONE OVER BY USING THE
00:40:47.21\00:40:51.48
BIBLE AS A WEAPON TO BEAT
SOMEONE OVER WITH THE TRUTH, WE
00:40:51.48\00:40:55.08
ARE TO SHARE THE LOVE, WE ARE TO
MIX AND MINGLE WITH OUR BRETHREN
00:40:55.08\00:40:58.59
AND SHOW THEM LOVE OF
JESUS AND MEET THEIR THE NEEDS.
00:40:58.59\00:41:02.06
BE WITH THEM THERE WHEN THEY ARE
IN HEAD TO AND THEN WHEN WE HAVE
00:41:02.06\00:41:04.99
WON THEIR CONFIDENCE AND THEY
SEE JESUS IN US, WHAT DOES OWES
00:41:04.99\00:41:09.13
SAY THEN DO, ASK THEM TO FOLLOW
YOU AND THEN SHOW THEM TRUTH AND
00:41:09.13\00:41:12.50
POINT THEM TO ME AND SAY
HEY THIS IS MY SAFE WROTE, COME
00:41:12.50\00:41:15.44
FOLLOW HIM. APEN.
00:41:15.44\00:41:17.41
PHRASE LORD. JAMES
CHAPTER 2, VERSE 14
00:41:17.41\00:41:19.87
THROUGH SEVEN TONE.
WHAT DOES IT THE PROFIT MY
00:41:19.87\00:41:23.24
BRETHREN IF SOMEONE SAYS HE HAS
FAITH BUT DOES NOT HAVE WORKS.
00:41:23.24\00:41:28.05
CAN FAITH SAVE HIM? IT
SAYS IF A BROTHER OR SISTER
00:41:28.05\00:41:31.32
IS NAKED AND DESTITUTE OF DAILY
FOOD AND ONE OF YOU SAYS TO THEM
00:41:31.32\00:41:35.22
DEPART THE PEACE, BE WARM AND
FILLED BUT DON'T GIVE THEM THE
00:41:35.22\00:41:39.63
THINGS THAT ARE NEED FORD BODY,
WHAT DOES IT PROFIT PROPHET?
00:41:39.63\00:41:44.03
>> ALSO FATE, FAITH BY ITSELF
DOES NOT HAVE WORKS IS DEAD.
00:41:44.03\00:41:52.61
ARE WE THE REMNANT? DOES
GOD HAVE A PECULIAR PEOPLE?
00:41:52.61\00:41:58.05
>> THE BIBLE TELLS US IN FIRST
PETER CHAPTER 2 VERSE 9 THAT
00:41:58.05\00:42:03.59
YOU, YOU NONE OF US ARE HERE BY
HAPPENSTANCE OR COINCIDENCE MY
00:42:03.59\00:42:07.72
FRIEND, YOU HAVE BEEN
CREATED FOR A PURPOSE.
00:42:07.72\00:42:09.79
THE BIBLE SAYS YOU ARE A CHOSEN
GENERATION, A HOLY PRIESTHOOD, A
00:42:09.79\00:42:14.76
HOLY NATION, YOUR OWN SPECIAL
PEOPLE HE MAY CLAIM THE PRAISES
00:42:14.76\00:42:19.50
OF HIM TO BE CALLED FROM
DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELOUS
00:42:19.50\00:42:23.10
LIGHT. IN CLOSING
I WOULD LIKE TO READ
00:42:23.10\00:42:25.21
ONE LAST QUOTE FROM ONE OF MY
FAVORITE GOSPEL WRITERS, OSWALD
00:42:25.21\00:42:29.04
CHAMBERS AND
LOVE THIS QUOTE HERE.
00:42:29.04\00:42:30.85
USING PAUL AS AN EXAMPLE HE
SAYS PAUL'S UNDERSTANDING OF HOW
00:42:30.85\00:42:34.45
CHRIST HAD DEALT WITH HIM IS THE
SECRET BEHIND HIS DEERMINATION
00:42:34.45\00:42:38.59
TO SERVE OTHERS.
THE OIL WAS FORMERLY A
00:42:38.59\00:42:43.09
BLASPHEMER, A PERSECUTOR AND A
STONE LENT PAN, NO BADLY OTHERS
00:42:43.09\00:42:48.06
HAVE TREATED PAUL THEY NEVER
COULD HAVE TREATED HIM WITH THE
00:42:48.06\00:42:50.67
SAME DEGREE OF SPITE AND HATRED
IN WHICH HE HAD TREATED JESUS
00:42:50.67\00:42:55.17
CHRIST. ONCE WE
REALIZE THAT JESUS HAS
00:42:55.17\00:42:57.34
SERVED US EVEN TO THE
DEPTHS 0 OF OUR MEAGERNESS, OUR
00:42:57.34\00:43:02.24
SELFISHNESS AND SIN, NOTHING
WE ENCOUNTER FROM OTHERS WILL BE
00:43:02.24\00:43:04.95
ABLE TO EXHAUST OUR
DETERMINATION TO SERVE OTHERS
00:43:04.95\00:43:07.48
FOR HIS SAKE. MAY
GOD'S PEOPLE WAKE UP AND MAY
00:43:07.48\00:43:10.22
WE START REACHING SOULS
WITH THE LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST.
00:43:10.22\00:43:13.52
AMEN. AMEN.
00:43:13.52\00:43:15.32
THANK YOU. YOU KNOW,
WHEN YOU WERE TALKING
00:43:15.32\00:43:18.86
ABOUT -- LET ME ASK YOU, IF YOU
PLAYING A VIOLIN, DO YOU GO BEAT
00:43:18.86\00:43:23.53
SOMEBODY OVER THE HEAD WITH A
VIOLIN TO TRY TO CONVINCE THEM
00:43:23.53\00:43:26.20
HOW BEAUTIFUL THE MUSIC IS? NO.
00:43:26.20\00:43:29.30
AND THAT'S WHAT SOME
PEOPLE DO WITH THE BIBLE.
00:43:29.30\00:43:31.94
IT IS ALSO WHAT THEY DO WITH THE
SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.  I REMEMBER
00:43:31.94\00:43:35.41
WHEN I WAS BRAND-NEW ADVENTIST
AND OUT PREACHING AT A CHURCH ON
00:43:35.41\00:43:42.08
SALVATION BASED ON FIRST JOHN
FIVE:10 THROUGH 12, BUT SOMEBODY
00:43:42.08\00:43:47.22
CAME UP TO ME AND SAID,
WHY CAN'T YOU HAVE ASSURANCE OF
00:43:47.22\00:43:52.33
SALVATION? HE IS
JUST POUNDING ON ME AND AS
00:43:52.33\00:43:54.63
I RESEARCHED IT, THEY HAD
TOTALLY TAKEN IT OUT OF CONTEXT
00:43:54.63\00:43:58.97
BECAUSE MRS. WHITE WAS TEACHING
THE SAME THING I WAS TEACHING.
00:43:58.97\00:44:02.34
ALL RIGHT. I INVITE
YOU, IF YOU WILL, TO
00:44:02.34\00:44:06.41
TURN TO EPHESIANS
CHAPTER 3. THANK YOU, RYAN.
00:44:06.41\00:44:13.42
FOR YOUR
IMPASSIONED DELIVERY THERE.
00:44:13.42\00:44:16.52
EPHESIANS CHAPTER 3. LET
ME TELL YOU, DID YOU KNOW
00:44:16.52\00:44:22.92
THAT GOD'S
REPUTATION IS HANGING ON YOU?
00:44:22.92\00:44:36.14
REMEMBER WHEN GOD SAID TO SATAN,
HAVE YOU CONSIDERED MY SERVANT
00:44:36.14\00:44:42.04
JOB? HE WAS POINTING TO JOB'S
00:44:42.04\00:44:45.35
FAITHFULNESS AND JOB WAS A
TESTIMONY TO THE FALLEN AND THE
00:44:45.35\00:44:50.55
UNFALLEN ANGELS. BUT
WHAT HAPPENED IS GOD ALLOWS
00:44:50.55\00:44:57.86
HIS REPUTATION TO HANG ON
OUR LIFE AND NOW HE HAS EXPANDED
00:44:57.86\00:45:01.76
THAT FROM JUST A FEW OF
THE SAINTS TO THE CHURCH.
00:45:01.76\00:45:05.90
EPHESIANS CHAPTER 3:10.
PAUL SAYS HIS INTENT WAS THAT --
00:45:05.90\00:45:13.51
NOW THROUGH THE CHURCH THE
MANIFOLD WISDOM, OH I LOVE THAT
00:45:13.51\00:45:19.31
WORD MANIFOLD, IT IS AN OLD
RARE WORD AND IT MEANS MANY --
00:45:19.31\00:45:24.82
MULTIFACETED, MANY
COLORED, LIKE A JEWEL.
00:45:24.82\00:45:27.52
SO THE MANIFOLD WISDOM OF
GOD SHOULD BE MADE KNOWN TO THE
00:45:27.52\00:45:32.53
RULERS AND AUTHORITIES
IN THE HEAVENLY REALM.
00:45:32.53\00:45:37.40
HOW? THROUGH
THE CHURCH, HE SAID.
00:45:37.40\00:45:40.30
SO WHAT IS PAUL SAYING?
THE UNFOLDING DRAMA OF THE
00:45:40.30\00:45:48.94
REDEEMED CHURCH
COMMUNITY IS WITNESSING TO THESE
00:45:48.94\00:45:54.92
PRINCIPALITIES OF THE AIR,
BOTH HOLY AND FALLEN ANGELS.
00:45:54.92\00:45:58.82
BEFORE CHRIST WE
WERE GOD'S ENEMIES.
00:45:58.82\00:46:01.72
WERE WE NOT? WE
FOLLOWED WAYS OF THE WORLD.
00:46:01.72\00:46:05.69
WE WERE ENSLAVED TO SIN AND
COMMITTED SIN BUT NOW BECAUSE OF
00:46:05.69\00:46:14.37
CHRIST WE HAVE BEEN
ADOPTED AS HIS CHILDREN.
00:46:14.37\00:46:17.77
HE HAS GIVEN U
THE 50 OF SALVATION.
00:46:17.77\00:46:20.14
WEWE HAVE GOT HIS MERCY
AND WE NOW SAND FOR TRUTH.
00:46:20.14\00:46:24.91
AND WE ARE MADE ALIVE WITH
CHRIST AND WE ARE FREE TO LOVE
00:46:24.91\00:46:30.55
OTHERS, TO REFLECT HIS
LOVE. HIS LIFE AND THE CHURCH
00:46:30.55\00:46:38.69
COMMUNITY IS REFERRED
TO AS THE FAMILY OF GOD.
00:46:38.69\00:46:44.00
THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD. TURN
BACK A CHAPTER TO EPHESIANS
00:46:44.00\00:46:50.07
2:19. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT GRACE
00:46:50.07\00:46:53.84
WITHIN THE CHURCH. NOW,
IN HE -- EPHESIANS 2:19,
00:46:53.84\00:46:59.68
PAUL WRITES YOU ARE THEREFORE NO
LONGER STRANGERS AND FOREIGNERS.
00:46:59.68\00:47:03.05
NOW FOREIGNERS WAS A SHORT-TERM
TRANSIENTS, THEY HAD NO RIGHTS.
00:47:03.05\00:47:07.49
STRANGERS WERE SIMILAR BUT THEY
WERE RESIDENT FOREIGNERS WHO
00:47:07.49\00:47:11.33
SETTLED AND THEY
HAD LIMITED RIGHTS.
00:47:11.33\00:47:13.96
SO THESE ARE TERMS THAT
WERE USED OF THE GENTILES BEFORE
00:47:13.96\00:47:20.74
CHRIST, BUT SAID KOUACHI
YOU ARE NO LONGER STRANGERS AND
00:47:20.74\00:47:24.34
FOREIGNERS. YOU ARE
FELLOW CITIZENS WITH
00:47:24.34\00:47:30.85
MEMBERS OF THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD.
HEY, YOU ARE FELLOW CITIZENS.
00:47:30.85\00:47:34.68
YOU ARE CITIZENS -- YOUR
CITIZENSHIP IS IN HEAVEN, THERE
00:47:34.68\00:47:39.52
ARE NO SECOND CLASS
CITIZENS. IN HEAVEN.
00:47:39.52\00:47:43.69
WE ARE MEMBERS
OF GOD'S HOUSEHOLD.
00:47:43.69\00:47:46.76
THAT'S OUR POSITION.
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THAT,
00:47:46.76\00:47:51.20
DOESN'T THAT DESCRIBE A
TOGETHERNESS, AN INTIMACY?
00:47:51.20\00:47:54.70
WE ARE TO BE UNITED WITH
THE SAINTS AND ENJOY ALL OF THE
00:47:54.70\00:47:59.04
PRIVILEGES OF THE HOUSEHOLD.
NOW TURN TO GALATIANS CHAPTER 6
00:47:59.04\00:48:03.91
AND VERSE 10.
GALATIANS CHAPTER 6 VERSE 10.
00:48:03.91\00:48:09.15
SO WHAT ARE WE 0 TO DO, AS
CITIZENS OF GOD'S KINGDOM AND
00:48:09.15\00:48:14.26
MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD,
AND HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS?
00:48:14.26\00:48:17.03
HE SAYS, TO THE GALATIANS,
SIX:10, THEREFORE AS WE HAVE
00:48:17.03\00:48:25.03
OPPORTUNITY LET US DO GOOD TO
ALL, ESPECIALLY TO THOSE WHO ARE
00:48:25.03\00:48:30.17
THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH.
LET ME ASK YOU, WHEN IS LAST
00:48:30.17\00:48:36.41
TIME GOD GAVE YOU OPPORTUNITY?
DID YOU TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT?
00:48:36.41\00:48:42.75
I MEAN, THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY
EVERY DAY TO DO GOOD TO THE
00:48:42.75\00:48:48.76
HOUSEHOLD. IT IS
OUR UNIQUE PRIVILEGE AS
00:48:48.76\00:48:54.23
CHRISTIANS TO DO GOOD THINGS IN
THE NAME OF CHRIST, ESPECIALLY
00:48:54.23\00:48:59.10
FOR THE HOUSEHOLD
OFFED TO -- OF GOD.
00:48:59.10\00:49:03.27
WE BELONG TO THE SAME FAMILY
.. AND IT IS NECESSARY THAT WE
00:49:03.27\00:49:08.44
SUPPORT EACH OTHER. DID
YOU KNOW THAT OUR LOVE FOR
00:49:08.44\00:49:11.71
EACH OTHER IS THE PRIMARY
TEST OF WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE A
00:49:11.71\00:49:17.22
CHRISTIAN? FIRST
JOHN 4:20 SAYS THIS.
00:49:17.22\00:49:23.12
IF SOMEONE SAYS I LOVE GOD
AND HE HATES HIS BROTHER, HE IS
00:49:23.12\00:49:28.40
TALKING ABOUT SOMEBODY IN THE
CHURCH, THAT UNLOVEABLE PERSON
00:49:28.40\00:49:32.20
THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO AVOID,
IF YOU SAY YOU LOVE GOD BUT YOU
00:49:32.20\00:49:38.24
HATE YOUR BROTHER, HE IS A LIAR.
FOR HE WHO DOES NOT LOVE HIS
00:49:38.24\00:49:44.71
BROTHER WHOM HE HAS SEEN, HOW
CAN HE LOVE HIS BROTHER WHOM HE
00:49:44.71\00:49:48.88
HAS NOT SEEN. NOW I
INVITE YOU TO TURN TO
00:49:48.88\00:49:53.79
ROMANS CHAPTER 12, BECAUSE
WE ARE GOING TO SEE IF THERE IS
00:49:53.79\00:49:57.93
GOING TO BE GRACE IN THE CHURCH.
AND IF THERE .. IF THERE ISN'T
00:49:57.93\00:50:03.06
GRACE WITHIN THE CHURCH, WE
ARE DAMAGING GOD'S REPUTATION.
00:50:03.06\00:50:10.84
BUT ROMANCE CHAPTER 12, PAUL
WRITES TO THE ROMANS, BEGINNING
00:50:10.84\00:50:16.41
IN VERSE 10 WHAT
WE OUGHT TO BE LIKE.
00:50:16.41\00:50:19.51
BE KINDLY, AFFECT MINUTE
TO, AFFECTIONATE TO OTHERS WITH
00:50:19.51\00:50:25.05
BROTHERLY LOVE .. NOW
THIS IS A FAMILY SORT OF LOVE.
00:50:25.05\00:50:28.76
I SHOULDN'T SAY THIS.
BUT DON'T TELL ANYBODY.
00:50:28.76\00:50:33.66
OKAY? EVERY NOW
AND THEN I RUN INTO A
00:50:33.66\00:50:40.54
LESSON 11 -- A 11 ROUSE
PERSON IN THE BODY OF CHRIST.
00:50:40.54\00:50:44.24
EVERY NOW AND THEN YOU GO TO A
CHURCH .. AND YOU HAVE SOME MAN
00:50:44.24\00:50:47.21
WHO COMES UP TO YOU THAT IS A
TOTAL STRANGER AND GIVES YOU A
00:50:47.21\00:50:50.98
BODY HUG THAT MAKES YOU
ABSOLUTELY FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE.
00:50:50.98\00:50:57.85
THIS IS -- WHEN HE IS SAYING
BE KINDLY AND AFFECTIONATE WITH
00:50:57.85\00:51:02.12
BROTHERLY LOVE, LEARN THE
A-FRAME HUG, I MEAN I JUST HAVE
00:51:02.12\00:51:05.73
GOT TO SAY THAT. YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:51:05.73\00:51:08.83
I DO. I AM NOT KIDDING.
00:51:08.83\00:51:10.57
THIS IS WHAT I DO. ACT
LIKE YOU GOING TO HUG ME I
00:51:10.57\00:51:15.17
PUT ANY HAND HERE AND
PUT MY ARM INBETWEEN US.
00:51:15.17\00:51:20.81
LEARN THE A-FRAME HUG. OKAY.
00:51:20.81\00:51:26.61
IN HONOR, THIS
IS LIVE, ISN'T IT?
00:51:26.61\00:51:31.32
IN HONOR GIVING PREFERENCE TO
ONE ANOTHER, PUTTING THEM FIRST.
00:51:31.32\00:51:35.12
WE ARE TO PUT OTHERS FIRST.
AND HE SAYS, NOT LACKING IN
00:51:35.12\00:51:42.40
DILIGENT, FERVENT IN SPIRIT,
SERVING THE LORD, PATIENT IN
00:51:42.40\00:51:47.24
TRIBULATION.
CONTINUING STEADFASTLY IN
00:51:47.24\00:51:49.84
PRAYER, DISTRIBUTING TO THE
NEEDS OF THE SAINTS, GIVEN TO
00:51:49.84\00:51:57.41
HOSPITALITY.
WHETHER IT IS THE LOCAL
00:51:57.41\00:51:58.91
COMMUNITY OF THE CHURCH OR
THE WORLDWIDE CHURCH, WE NEED TO
00:51:58.91\00:52:03.08
LIVE UP TO OUR HIGH CALLING.
WE ARE TO BE A COMMUNITY OF THE
00:52:03.08\00:52:08.89
SPIRIT OF GOD AND TO TREAT
OTHERS WITH JUSTICE AND LOVE AND
00:52:08.89\00:52:14.50
GRACE AND WE ARE TO TREAT THE
LEAST OF THESE WITH DIGNITY AND
00:52:14.50\00:52:22.67
FAIRNESS. YOU
KNOW,, JESUS GAVE THIS
00:52:22.67\00:52:24.24
COMMAND THIS JOHN 13:34. AND 35.
00:52:24.24\00:52:30.58
IT IS INTERESTING HOW HE SAYS
THIS.  A NEW COMMAND I GIVE TO
00:52:30.58\00:52:38.52
YOU. LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
00:52:38.52\00:52:39.62
WELL, WHAT IS NEW ABOUT THAT?
LEVITICUS 19, 18 SAID WE SHOULD
00:52:39.62\00:52:45.43
LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS
YOURSELF, I AM THE LORD.
00:52:45.43\00:52:48.30
LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
THIS IS A NEW COMMAND.
00:52:48.30\00:52:52.47
HIGHJACK. BUT LOOK WHAT HE SAYS.
00:52:52.47\00:52:55.34
AS I HAVE LOVED YOU. SO
YOU MUST LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
00:52:55.34\00:53:03.78
BY THIS, EVERYONE WILL KNOW THAT
YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES IF YOU LOVE
00:53:03.78\00:53:08.52
ONE ANOTHER. THAT IS
THE DISTINGUISHING MARK
00:53:08.52\00:53:11.89
OF A CHRISTIAN. IS, IS
THAT WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
00:53:11.89\00:53:16.32
AND WE ARE TO FOLLOW JESUS'
EXAMPLE OF SELF-SACRIFICING LOVE
00:53:16.32\00:53:24.10
AND YOU KNOW WHAT? WE
CAN'T DO THAT IN OUR OWN
00:53:24.10\00:53:26.87
STRENGTH BUT ROMANS 5:5 SAYS
THAT GOD FORCES LOVE INTO OUR
00:53:26.87\00:53:32.71
HEARTS BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT AND AS WE SEE DAY BY DAY
00:53:32.71\00:53:36.88
TO BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY
SPIRIT, AS WE SEEK THAT, WE JUST
00:53:36.88\00:53:40.28
PRAY, LORD, FILL
ME WITH YOUR LOVE.
00:53:40.28\00:53:43.12
LET ME -- YOU KNOW, WHEN WE
SAY THAT WE LOVE YOU, WE DO.
00:53:43.12\00:53:46.76
WE ARE NOT JUST SAYING THAT.
AND IT IS NOT TO OUR -- I MEAN,
00:53:46.76\00:53:52.09
WE DON'T GET ANY
CREDIT FOR IT. WE PRAY.
00:53:52.09\00:53:54.86
I KNOW I PRAY. AND
SAY, LORD, FILL ME WITH YOUR
00:53:54.86\00:53:59.07
LOVE FOR YOUR
PEOPLE. I LOVE YOU.
00:53:59.07\00:54:01.87
YOU ARE MY
BROTHERS AND MY SISTERS.
00:54:01.87\00:54:04.41
AND LET ME READ THIS TO YOU.
TURN TO FIRST JOHN, CHAPTER 3.
00:54:04.41\00:54:10.48
BOY, WE CAN BET IN FIRST JOHN
AND JUST PREACH, COLDN'T WE?
00:54:10.48\00:54:13.78
WE ARE TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
WITH THAT SELF-SACRIFICING LOVE,
00:54:13.78\00:54:19.69
BECAUSE THIS IS HOW THE WORLD
RECOGNIZES THAT WE ARE FOLLOWERS
00:54:19.69\00:54:23.29
OF CHRIST. FIRST
JOHN CHAPTER 3 AND WE WILL
00:54:23.29\00:54:26.13
LOCK AT VERSE 7.
LITTLE CHILDREN LET NO ONE
00:54:26.13\00:54:30.30
DECEIVE YOU, HE WHO PRACTICES
RIGHTEOUSNESS IS RIGHTEOUS.
00:54:30.30\00:54:34.64
JUST AS HE IS RIGHTEOUS. YEAH.
00:54:34.64\00:54:36.97
IT IS ISSUES ARENESS BY FAITH
BUT YOU HAVE GOT TO PUT IT INTO
00:54:36.97\00:54:39.87
PRACTICE. HE WHO SINS IS WHAT?
00:54:39.87\00:54:42.68
OF THE DELVE DEAF. FOR
THE DEVIL HAS SINNED FROM
00:54:42.68\00:54:45.08
THE BEGINNING AND FOR
THIS PURPOSE THE SON OF GOD WAS
00:54:45.08\00:54:48.28
MANIFESTED, THAT HE MIGHT
DESTROY THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL.
00:54:48.28\00:54:52.09
WHOEVER HAS BEEN BORN OF
GOD DOES NOT STAND FOR HIS SEED,
00:54:52.09\00:54:56.19
CHRIST'S STEED REMAINS IN HIM.
HE CANNOT SIN BECAUSE HE HAS
00:54:56.19\00:54:59.33
BEEN BORN OF GOD. NOW
DON'T GET TOO DISCOURAGED
00:54:59.33\00:55:01.90
HERE SHE TALKING ABOUT YOU ARE
NOT GOING TO LIVE IN ABOUT JULY
00:55:01.90\00:55:06.60
SIN. HABIT YOU
WILL SINCE HABITUAL
00:55:06.60\00:55:09.47
SINCE, IN THIS THE CHILDREN
OF GOD AND THE CHILDREN OF THE
00:55:09.47\00:55:12.01
DEVIL ARE MANIFEST .. WHOEVER
DOES NOT PRACTICE RIGHTEOUSNESS
00:55:12.01\00:55:15.51
IS NOT OF GOD NOR IS HE
WHO DOES NOT LOVE HIS BROTHER.
00:55:15.51\00:55:25.09
WE HAVE AN ERRONEOUS WAY
OF SAYING, WE ARE ALL GOD'S
00:55:25.09\00:55:31.39
CHILDREN. THAT'S
NOT WHAT JESUS SAID.
00:55:31.39\00:55:33.80
HE SAID YOU ARE OF YOUR FATHER
THE DEVIL TO THE PHARISEES.
00:55:33.80\00:55:38.50
WE ARE ALL BORN IN THE IMAGE
OF GOD AND YOU CAN GO BACK AND I
00:55:38.50\00:55:43.67
GUESS YOU CAN SAY THAT IN A WAY,
BUT LET ME TELL YOU, YOU ARE
00:55:43.67\00:55:47.28
EITHER A CHILD OF GOD OR
YOU ARE A CHILD OF THE DEVIL.
00:55:47.28\00:55:53.75
AND YOU CAN'T BE IN
BOTH FAMILIES SIMULTANEOUSLY.
00:55:53.75\00:55:55.95
AND WHAT DOES IT SAY HERE?
GENUINE LOVE, CHRISTIAN LOVE HAS
00:55:55.95\00:56:01.49
TO BE PRACTICAL. WE
HAVE TO FIND OUR MOTIVATION
00:56:01.49\00:56:06.16
IN SERVING ONE ANOTHER AND JESUS
EVEN SAID LOVE YOUR ENEMIES.
00:56:06.16\00:56:11.67
LET ME TELL YOU
LOVE IS AN EMOTION.
00:56:11.67\00:56:14.47
IT IS NOT AN
EMOTION. IT IS A CHOICE.
00:56:14.47\00:56:17.94
AND YOU HAVE TO
ASK THE GIFT FROM GOD.
00:56:17.94\00:56:22.58
THANK YOU, MS. SHELLEY.
IS SHE NOT A UNIQUE PERSON?
00:56:22.58\00:56:26.98
WE DO APPRECIATE HER. I
WANT ALL OF YOU TO TURN IN
00:56:26.98\00:56:30.52
YOUR BIBLE TO OUR MEMORY TEXT
AND THAT WOULD BE HEBREWS THE
00:56:30.52\00:56:35.76
TENTH CHAPTER WHERE I AM GOING
LOOK AT VERSES 23 THROUGH 25.
00:56:35.76\00:56:41.96
HEBREWS. CHAPTER
10, 23 THROUGH 25.
00:56:41.96\00:56:46.97
AND I TALKED TO YOU TODAY ABOUT
ENCOURAGING EACH OTHER TO GOOD
00:56:46.97\00:56:53.48
WORKS. THESE BIBLE
TEACHINGS THAT JILL,
00:56:53.48\00:57:01.45
PASTOR RYAN AND SHELLEY
SHALL HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT OF
00:57:01.45\00:57:05.45
LOVING EACH OTHER AND
ENCOURAGING EACH OTHER, HELPING
00:57:05.45\00:57:09.52
EACH OTHER, YOU KNOW, THAT IS
THE HEART OF THE MINISTRY, ISN'T
00:57:09.52\00:57:12.03
IT? BUT THAT GOES
TO THE VERY ROOT OF IT.
00:57:12.03\00:57:14.73
BUT HAVE ANY OF YOU
EVER BEEN DISCOURAGED?
00:57:14.73\00:57:22.24
HAVE YOU EVER GROWN WARY?
IT SEEMS THAT -- IT SEEMS TO ME
00:57:22.24\00:57:27.64
LIKE DISCOURAGEMENT MAY BE ONE
OF THE MAIN TOOLS THAT THE ENEMY
00:57:27.64\00:57:32.65
USES TO GET US OFF TRACK.
-- PASTOR FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND
00:57:32.65\00:57:41.02
IN ALL HONESTY THAT
CAN BE DISCOURAGING.
00:57:41.02\00:57:45.56
NOW, I KNOW THAT LOOKS AS PASTOR
MCCAIN AN ANGIE, YOU THINK THAT
00:57:45.56\00:57:51.13
BEING A PASTOR AND HIS WIFE
IS JUST THIS WONDERFUL, FABULOUS
00:57:51.13\00:57:58.04
OPPORTUNITY TO GET TO TRAVEL THE
WORLD AND PREACH ALL OVER THE
00:57:58.04\00:58:01.31
WORLD. DO YOU KNOW
THAT THEY WERE OVER
00:58:01.31\00:58:03.01
IN, I THINK IT WAS
AFRICA RECENTLY; IS THAT TRUE?
00:58:03.01\00:58:05.91
HE WAS SICK AND SHE WAS
SICK. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:58:05.91\00:58:10.15
THEY DIDN'T MISS A SERVICE.
IT IS HARD WORK AND IT CAN BE
00:58:10.15\00:58:15.46
DISCOURAGING. AND OH
IF I CAN SAY ANYTHING TO
00:58:15.46\00:58:17.53
ANYBODY IS PRAY
FOR YOUR PASTORS.
00:58:17.53\00:58:20.63
PRAY FOR YOUR PASTORS. WE
PASTORED FOR SEVERAL YEARS
00:58:20.63\00:58:24.83
AND I REMEMBER A TIME WHEN THERE
WAS A GROUP OF PEOPLE IN OUR
00:58:24.83\00:58:30.34
CHURCH AND THEY WERE JUST IRATE
WITH LEADERSHIP, WITH LEADERSHIP
00:58:30.34\00:58:34.51
WHICH I WAS A PART OF, WE WERE
THE MAIN TWO TARGETS UP THERE.
00:58:34.51\00:58:38.81
WE -- AND THEY WERE JUST IRATE
WITH US ABOUT A DECISION THAT
00:58:38.81\00:58:42.45
LEADERSHIP HAD MADE
CONCERNING OUR CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.
00:58:42.45\00:58:48.16
AND THEY WERE VERY LOUD
AND THEY WERE VERY VERBAL.
00:58:48.16\00:58:51.33
AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY WERE
DOING, RUNNING AROUND TO OTHER
00:58:51.33\00:58:53.53
GROUPS IN THE CHURCH TRYING TO
TALK PEOPLE INTO SEEING THINGS
00:58:53.53\00:58:57.23
THEIR WAY. HAVE YOU
EVER -- HAVE YOU SEEN
00:58:57.23\00:59:00.07
THAT? SO THEY
WERE TRYING TO PERSUADE
00:59:00.07\00:59:03.47
OTHERS TO SEE
THINGS AS THEY SAW THINGS.
00:59:03.47\00:59:08.91
WELL, WE WENT HOME AND AFTER
THE SERVICE 0 AND WE WERE JUST
00:59:08.91\00:59:15.55
DISCOURAGED. AND WE
HAD ABOUT COME TO THE
00:59:15.55\00:59:18.79
CONCLUSION THAT IT MIGHT BE
BETTER IF WE WERE TO JUST QUIT,
00:59:18.79\00:59:24.13
IF WE WERE TO LET SOMEONE ELSE
TAKE THE MINISTRY AND MAYBE THEY
00:59:24.13\00:59:29.40
CAN MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY.
AND WE WERE SO DISCOURAGED WE
00:59:29.40\00:59:34.80
WERE THINKING ABOUT QUITTING.
NOW LET ME ASK YOU THIS.
00:59:34.80\00:59:37.71
HAVE ANY OF YOU EVER BEEN SO
DISCOURAGED YOU THOUGHT ABOUT
00:59:37.71\00:59:40.91
QUITTING? OH LET ME
TELL YOU, THAT IS THE
00:59:40.91\00:59:44.11
ENEMY. THAT IS NOT OUR HOLY GOD.
00:59:44.11\00:59:46.72
THAT IS THE ENEMY. AND
AT THIS BELIEVE AT THAT TIME
00:59:46.72\00:59:50.39
THAT THE LORD IMPRESSED UPON
MY HEART TO LOOK AT THIS THING
00:59:50.39\00:59:55.86
LOGICALLY. NOW, I
KNOW THAT WE DON'T ALWAYS
00:59:55.86\01:00:00.13
RECEIVE THINGS FROM THE
LORD IN A LOGICAL MANNER.
01:00:00.13\01:00:03.00
I MEAN, THE LORD CAN IMPRESS
THINGS UPON OUR HEARTS ANYWAY HE
01:00:03.00\01:00:07.20
CHOOSES. BUT HE
JUST ENCOURAGED KNOW LOOK
01:00:07.20\01:00:10.11
AT THINGS LOGICALLY. AND
I LOOKED AT THE NUMBER OF
01:00:10.11\01:00:14.31
PEOPLE THAT WERE SO LOUD AND SO
VERBAL AND YOU KNOW, THERE WERE
01:00:14.31\01:00:18.71
ONLY ABOUT NINE. AND
THEY WERE ALL IN ONE FAMILY
01:00:18.71\01:00:23.45
OR ASSOCIATED WITH ONE FAMILY.
AND WE LOOKED AT THE REST OF THE
01:00:23.45\01:00:29.66
CONGREGATION, AND YOU KNOW
THAT WAS ONLY TO THREE PERCENT.
01:00:29.66\01:00:33.09
BUT THAT THREE PERCENT WAS WHAT
WAS IN OUR FACE, THEY WERE SO
01:00:33.09\01:00:37.37
LOUD, THEY WERE SO DISCOURAGING,
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT, THEN OH
01:00:37.37\01:00:43.61
HOW ENCOURAGING, THERE WERE
97 PERCENT OF SHEEP THAT JUST
01:00:43.61\01:00:47.71
LOVED US AND -- BUT THEY WEREN'T
THE ONES THAT WERE BEING LOUD
01:00:47.71\01:00:52.01
AND VERBAL. OH SO
LET ME HE COUNSEL --
01:00:52.01\01:00:55.08
ENCOURAGE YOU IN THIS.
WHEN YOU SEE THAT SOMEONE IS
01:00:55.08\01:00:57.59
UNDER ATTACK. BE
AN ENCOURAGE TORE THAT
01:00:57.59\01:01:01.16
PERSON. LIFT THEM UP.
01:01:01.16\01:01:02.16
PICK THEM UP. THE
NAYSAYERS ARE SO LOUD.
01:01:02.16\01:01:05.56
WE NEED TO HEAR A VOICE THAT IS
A LOVING VOICE TO ALMIGHTY GOD.
01:01:05.56\01:01:13.90
WHAT SHOULD WE HAVE DONE AND
THAT'S WHERE OUR SCRIPTURES COME
01:01:13.90\01:01:16.74
INTO PLAY. AGAIN, I
HAVE NOT YOU IN HEBREWS
01:01:16.74\01:01:20.74
CHAPTER 10 AND WE ARE GOING
TO LOOK AT VERSES 23 THROUGH 25.
01:01:20.74\01:01:25.08
THE SCRIPTURE SAYS LET US HOLD
FAST THE CONFESSION OF OUR HOPE
01:01:25.08\01:01:32.19
WITHOUT WAIVING FOR HE WHO
PROMISED US WHAT IS FAITHFUL,
01:01:32.19\01:01:37.56
LET'S US HOLD FAST OUR
CONFESSION .. AND OUR CONFESSION
01:01:37.56\01:01:42.03
OF OUR HOPE --
NOW WHAT IS OUR HOPE?
01:01:42.03\01:01:45.37
IT IS THE SOON RETURN
OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST?
01:01:45.37\01:01:47.07
IS THAT OUR BLESSED HOPE?
LET US HOLD FAST SO YOU CAN ONLY
01:01:47.07\01:01:51.91
HOLD FAST TO THE CONFESSION OF
YOUR FAITH OF YOUR HOPE OF THOSE
01:01:51.91\01:01:56.64
THINGS AS SHELLEY TALKED SO
BEAUTIFULLY LAST NIGHT THAT YOU
01:01:56.64\01:02:00.15
HAVE HID IN YOUR HEART AND THEY
HAVE BECOME A LIVING PART OF
01:02:00.15\01:02:04.55
YOU. SO THOSE
SCRIPTURES THAT YOU
01:02:04.55\01:02:07.32
SPEAK OVER YOUR LIFE, THOSE
SCRIPTURES THAT ARE A LIVING
01:02:07.32\01:02:11.73
REALITY TO YOU, HOLD FAST
TO THOSE, BECAUSE THOSE ARE THE
01:02:11.73\01:02:16.13
SCRIPTURES THAT WILL
GET YOU THROUGH ROUGH.
01:02:16.13\01:02:18.70
BUT LET ME TELL YOU, IN THE TIME
OF A PLEASANT VALLEY, IN THE
01:02:18.70\01:02:22.50
TIME WHEN THINGS ARE GOING WELL
FOR YOU, THAT IS THE TIME FOR
01:02:22.50\01:02:28.31
YOU TO HIDE GOD'S WORD IN YOUR
HEART AND TO MAKE THAT HEART A
01:02:28.31\01:02:31.55
LIVING REALITY, SO HOLD FAST TO
THAT WORD THAT YOU HAVE HIDDEN
01:02:31.55\01:02:35.72
IN YOUR HEART.
BECAUSE HE WHO PROMISED IT IS
01:02:35.72\01:02:41.12
FAITHFUL. LET'S GO ON, VERSE 24.
01:02:41.12\01:02:43.73
AND LET US CONSIDER ONE ANOTHER
IN ORDER TO STIR UP LOVE AND
01:02:43.73\01:02:49.20
GOOD WORKS, VERSE 25. NOT
FORSAKING THE ASSEMBLING OF
01:02:49.20\01:02:55.00
OURSELVES TOGETHER AS IS THE
MANNER OF SOME BUT EXHORTING ONE
01:02:55.00\01:03:00.38
ANOTHER IN SO MUCH THE MORE
AS YOU SEE THE DAY APPROACHING.
01:03:00.38\01:03:06.78
NOW I AM GOING TO PULL A JIM
MARCONI ON YOU, I AM GIVING YOU
01:03:06.78\01:03:11.82
THREE STEPS HERE.
THREE STEPS, OKAY.
01:03:11.82\01:03:14.76
STEP NUMBER ONE. IN
WHAT WE SHOULD DO WHEN WE ARE
01:03:14.76\01:03:19.29
BEING DISCOURAGED OR WHAT WE
SHOULD DO CONSIDERING THIS WORD.
01:03:19.29\01:03:22.76
AND THE FIRST IS TO
STIR UP LOVING GOOD WORKS.
01:03:22.76\01:03:27.10
LOOK AT THAT. IN VERSE 24.
01:03:27.10\01:03:32.57
AND LET US CONSIDER ONE ANOTHER
IN ORDER TO DO WHAT?  STIR UP
01:03:32.57\01:03:38.68
LOVE AND GOD WORKS. SO
HOW DO YOU DO THAT?  HOW DO
01:03:38.68\01:03:42.75
YOU STIR UP LOVE AND GOOD WORKS?
AND I WAS THINKING ABOUT THAT.
01:03:42.75\01:03:47.42
DO YOU ALL REMEMBER, I WAS
ONE OF THE ONES ON THE SABBATH
01:03:47.42\01:03:50.83
SCHOOL PANEL THAT GOT --
NEHEMIAH AND I AM TELLING YOU
01:03:50.83\01:03:55.63
THOSE ARE POWERFUL
BOOKS OF THE BIBLE.
01:03:55.63\01:03:57.83
THEY HAVE REALLY
IMPACTED I THINK ALL OF US.
01:03:57.83\01:04:01.74
AND SO REMEMBER IN EZRA, WHEN
THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL HAD BE G
01:04:01.74\01:04:06.98
UNTO REBUILD THE TEMPLE AND THEY
GOT DISCOURAGED, WHAT DID THE
01:04:06.98\01:04:11.98
CHILDREN OF ISRAEL DO WHEN THEY
GOT THAT REMNANT THAT WAS SENT
01:04:11.98\01:04:17.29
BACK TO BUILD THE TEMPLE, THEY
GOT DISCOURAGED AND WHAT DID
01:04:17.29\01:04:20.59
THEY DO? THEY QUIT BUILDING.
01:04:20.59\01:04:25.69
THEY STOPPED WHAT THE
LORD HAS DIRECTED THEM TO DO.
01:04:25.69\01:04:29.56
BECAUSE THEY WERE DISCOURAGED.
NOW, YOU LOOK AT ALL OF THE
01:04:29.56\01:04:32.87
REASONS THEY WERE DISCOURAGED
AND WANT YOU TO KNOW HAD I LIVED
01:04:32.87\01:04:36.00
BACK THEN, I AM
NOT SAYING I WOULD HAVE
01:04:36.00\01:04:39.24
WOULD HAVE BEEN ONE OUT
THERE BUILDING THE TEMPLE WHERE
01:04:39.24\01:04:42.34
EVERYONE QUIT. I
EXPECT WE WOULD ALL HAVE BEEN
01:04:42.34\01:04:45.78
DISCOURAGED. IT WAS
REALLY DIFFICULT TIMES.
01:04:45.78\01:04:47.58
BUT IN EZRA, CHAPTER 5, VERSES
1 AND 2 I THINK YOU WERE IN EZRA
01:04:47.58\01:04:55.59
CHAPTER 9. EZRA
CHAPTER 5, 1 AND 2, IT SAYS
01:04:55.59\01:04:58.69
THE SCRIPTURE SAYS THEN
THE PROPHET HAGGAI AND ZACHARIA
01:04:58.69\01:05:04.73
IMPROVE SIDE TO THE JEWS SO HERE
IS SOMETHING OF ENCOURAGEMENT,
01:05:04.73\01:05:07.94
ANY TIME YOU ARE DOWN GOD IS
GOING TO HAVE HAVE SOMEONE BRING
01:05:07.94\01:05:12.67
YOU A HELPFUL WORD
OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO YOU.
01:05:12.67\01:05:15.18
GOD SEES YOU RIGHT WHERE YOU
ARE AND HE LOVES YOU AND HE IS
01:05:15.18\01:05:18.21
CONCERNED ABOUT YOU. NOW,
IN EZRA IT DOESN'T GIVE THE
01:05:18.21\01:05:22.58
WORD THAT THE LORD BROUGHT
THROUGH HAG I GO AND ZACHARIA
01:05:22.58\01:05:26.86
BUT IT TELLS US THAT WORD IN
HAGGAI AND THE LORD STRAIGHTEN
01:05:26.86\01:05:29.99
THOSE PEOPLE OUT, IT WASN'T JUST
A WORD OF .. OH GOD BLESS YOU,
01:05:29.99\01:05:34.73
THIS IS A WORD OF THIS IS WHAT
YOU ARE DOING WRONG, IT WAS A
01:05:34.73\01:05:39.23
WORD OF CORRECTION AS WELL, SO
HERE IS HOW THE CHILDREN THAT --
01:05:39.23\01:05:47.04
THIS IS HOW THEY RESPONDED.
NOW, WHAT WAS THEIR STATE IN
01:05:47.04\01:05:50.55
THEY WERE
DISCOURAGED AND THEY HAD QUIT.
01:05:50.55\01:05:53.52
AND SO IN VERSE 2, EASY REMARKS
CHAPTER 5 VERSE 2 SAYS SEARCH
01:05:53.52\01:06:00.29
RUB BELL AND JOSHUA DID WHAT?
THEY ROSE U AND BEGAN TO BUILD
01:06:00.29\01:06:05.73
THE HOUSE OF GOD. SO
WHAT DID THAT WORD FROM GOD
01:06:05.73\01:06:08.03
ENCOURAGE THEM TO DO?
THEY ROSE UP AND THEY WENT BACK
01:06:08.03\01:06:11.77
ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS
WHICH IS IN JERUSALEM.
01:06:11.77\01:06:14.27
BUT NOW HERE IS THE PART, THE
LAST PART OF THAT SCRIPTURE IS
01:06:14.27\01:06:18.14
THE PART THAT I UNDERLINED IN
MY BIBLE, I WANT YOU TO LOOK AT
01:06:18.14\01:06:22.41
THIS. AND THE
PROPHETS OF GOD WERE
01:06:22.41\01:06:26.92
WITH THEM DOING
WHAT? >> HELPING THEM.
01:06:26.92\01:06:29.92
SO THE PROPHETS OF GOD DIDN'T
SAY LOOK AT US, WE ARE PROPHETS.
01:06:29.92\01:06:35.89
HEY, GOD GAVE US THE WORD, SO
THAT MAKES US THE SELECT OF THE
01:06:35.89\01:06:41.40
ELECT. YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID?
01:06:41.40\01:06:42.50
THEY GOT DOWN AND
THEY WORKED WITH THEM.
01:06:42.50\01:06:45.53
SO HOW HOW TO STIR
UP PEOPLE TO ACTION?
01:06:45.53\01:06:50.94
DON'T TRY TO LEAD AND
MOTIVATE WITH WORDS ONLY.
01:06:50.94\01:06:55.58
LEAD BY YOUR ACTIONS.
ENCOURAGE BY YOUR ACTIONS.
01:06:55.58\01:07:00.12
OH I LOVE WHAT
YOU SHARED, BRIAN.
01:07:00.12\01:07:03.28
JESUS MINGED WITH THE PEOPLE.
HE GOT RIGHT OUT IN THE MIDDLE.
01:07:03.28\01:07:07.09
HE DIDN'T SAY, HEY, LOOK, I AM
THE MESSIAH, NONE OF YOU HAVE A
01:07:07.09\01:07:12.03
SNOWBALL'S CHANCE
IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW ME.
01:07:12.03\01:07:14.46
JESUS DIDN'T TELL
THEM THAT. YOU KNOW WHAT?
01:07:14.46\01:07:18.63
HE WENT OUT THERE AND HE LOVED
THEM AND HE DREW THEM IN ..
01:07:18.63\01:07:23.37
THAT'S WHAT HE DID,
HE MINGLED WITH THEM.
01:07:23.37\01:07:27.21
SO DON'T JUST
ENCOURAGE WITH YOUR WORDS.
01:07:27.21\01:07:32.01
WORDS ARE IMPORTANT,
ENCOURAGE WITH YOUR ACTIONS TOO.
01:07:32.01\01:07:35.62
ALL RIGHT. NOW, VERSE 25.
01:07:35.62\01:07:39.85
THE NEXT IS NOT FORSAKING
THE ASSEMBLING OF YOURSELVES
01:07:39.85\01:07:44.83
TOGETHER. OH, MY
GOODNESS, HOW TIME FLIES.
01:07:44.83\01:07:50.33
OKAY. I WOULD -- I HAVE ALWAYS
01:07:50.33\01:07:53.23
ENCOURAGED PEOPLE TO COME
TO 3 ABN MEETING TO GET TO THIS
01:07:53.23\01:07:57.74
CONGREGATION
AND BE A PART OF IT.
01:07:57.74\01:08:00.11
WHY?  IT IS SO MUCH MORE
EXCITING TO BE AROUND FULL OF
01:08:00.11\01:08:06.78
BELIEVERS THAT
RECEIVING THE TRUTH.
01:08:06.78\01:08:08.42
SO DON'T FORSAKE THE ASSEMBLING
OF YOURSELVES TOGETHER.
01:08:08.42\01:08:12.42
THANK GOD FOR 3 ABM TELEVISION
AND ALL OF THESE OTHER MEDIA

OKAY. I HAVE GOT TO HURRY ON.
01:08:26.70\01:08:27.97

01:08:27.97\01:08:31.11

ENCOURAGEMENT, WORDS LIKE COME

LET ME HELP YOU WITH THAT.
01:08:34.51\01:08:38.05

PEOPLE THAT ARE AROUND
YOU. TELL YOUR PASTOR, BOY, YOU
01:08:41.58\01:08:45.15
OPENED MY EYES TO SOMETHING.
DO YOU REALIZE THAT THE WORD --
01:08:45.15\01:08:48.59
THE WORDS OF KINDNESS THAT
YOU SAY TO SOMEONE DURING A DAY
01:08:48.59\01:08:52.69
MIGHT BE THE ONLY ACT OF
KINDNESS THEY RECEIVE ALL DAY
01:08:52.69\01:08:55.76
LONG? TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EVERY
01:08:55.76\01:08:58.30
OPPORTUNITY. LOOK
FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO
01:08:58.30\01:09:01.07
ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER.
NOW I HAVE TO GET TO THIS.
01:09:01.07\01:09:06.68
WE HAVE OUR WORDS TO SHARE
BUT ALSO HUGS AND SHELLEY SHARED
01:09:06.68\01:09:11.98
WHAT SHE SHARED, I STILL
WANT TO SHARE THIS ABOUT HUGS.
01:09:11.98\01:09:15.32
A FAMILY THERAPIST TOLD US WE
NEED FOUR HUGS A DAY TO SURVIVE.
01:09:15.32\01:09:20.89
WE NEED EIGHT HUGS
A DAY FOR MAINTENANCE.
01:09:20.89\01:09:24.99
WE NEED 12 HUGS
A DAY FOR GROWTH.
01:09:24.99\01:09:26.83
I AM A HUGGER. I LOVE TO HUG.
01:09:26.83\01:09:28.76

BODILY HUG IT WITH THE A-FRAME.
01:09:28.76\01:09:32.27

LEARNED TODAY ABOUT THE A-FRAME
HUG AND SNOWBALL'S CHANCE.
01:09:47.52\01:09:52.92
NO. SERIOUSLY,
WE LEARNED ABOUT THE
01:09:52.92\01:09:55.62
CHURCH AS A
COMMUNITY OF SERVANTS.
01:09:55.62\01:09:59.63
WE ARE THE BED OF CHRIST AND GOD
CALLS US TO LOVE EACH OTHER AND
01:09:59.63\01:10:04.27
TO SERVE OUR BROTHERS AND
SISTERS AND THOSE OUTSIDE OF THE
01:10:04.27\01:10:07.90
COMMUNITY. WE HAVE
JUST A FEW MOMENTS LEFT.
01:10:07.90\01:10:09.57
WANT TO GIVE EACH ONE OF
YOU A MOMENT TO SHARE A CLOSING
01:10:09.57\01:10:13.27
THOUGHT. PASTOR JOHN.

>> I LIKE WHAT I
HEARD A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO.
01:10:14.21\01:10:18.38
HE IS DECEASED
NOW, PASTOR SAMUEL.
01:10:18.38\01:10:22.62
PASTOR THOMAS. NOT
SAMUEL THOMAS, HIS FATHER.
01:10:22.62\01:10:25.29
I LIKE WHAT HE SAID AND I
THINK THIS FITS IN THE REMNANT.
01:10:25.29\01:10:29.32
I AM WHO I AM NOT
BECAUSE OF WHO I AM.
01:10:29.32\01:10:34.60
I AM WHO I AM NOT
BECAUSE OF WHAT I AM.
01:10:34.60\01:10:38.23
I AM WHO I AM BECAUSE THE
GREAT I AM MADE ME WHAT I AM.
01:10:38.23\01:10:43.27
THAT'S ALL I WANT
TO BE. PRAISE THE LORD.
01:10:43.27\01:10:46.91
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT GOD IS LOVE.
NOT JUST MERE LOVING BUT SHE
01:10:46.91\01:10:53.11
LOVE. AND I THINK
IT IS SAFE TO SAY,
01:10:53.11\01:10:55.02
MOLLY, WE DON'T HAVE A
SNOWBALL'S CHANCE IF WE DON'T
01:10:55.02\01:10:59.95
SURRENDER AND HUMBLE OURSELVES
TO RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT
01:10:59.95\01:11:02.79

THE CHARACTER OF JESUS CHRIST.

REPLICATE THE LOVE AND THE
CHARACTER OF JESUS, THAT WE
01:11:17.81\01:11:22.44
MIGHT REAP SOULS. >>
OVERLOOKING INSUPPLEMENTS,
01:11:22.44\01:11:24.85
NOT FIGHTING BACK, PUTTING
OTHERS WELFARE BEFORE OUR OWN IS
01:11:24.85\01:11:29.38
SOMETIMES DIFFICULT. WAS
WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS
01:11:29.38\01:11:33.29

YOUR HEART BLESSED AND HOLY.
