PREVIOUSLY ON LAW
AND LOVE AND LIBERTY.
00:00:43.10\00:00:46.37
>> WITHOUT THE INTERVENTION
OF CHRIST, THERE IS NATURALLY
00:00:46.37\00:00:52.21
CONSEQUENCE.
00:00:52.21\00:00:55.68
LET THE LAW CONVICT YOU.
PROPHECY WILL CLEAR BEFORE OUR
00:01:10.23\00:01:16.67
VERY EYES.
REMEMBER, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
00:01:16.67\00:01:20.04
NOT MURDER. YOU
BETTER BELIEVE IT.
00:01:20.04\00:01:21.94
BECAUSE WE HAVE A JOB TO DO
AND WE ARE MURDERING PEOPLE IF
00:01:21.94\00:01:25.78
WE DON'T GIVE THEM
WHAT GOD SAID TO GIVE THEM.
00:01:25.78\00:01:38.53
>> I WANT TO SAY TO THE REST
OF US, I BELIEVE IN THE CHURCH
00:01:38.53\00:01:41.63
AND AS A PEOPLE IF WE'RE GOING
TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE WORLD
00:01:41.63\00:01:45.07
AND WE SEE GOD'S BLESSING,
WE HAVE TO GET OFF POLITICS AND
00:01:45.07\00:01:49.64
GET INTO WHAT GOD HAS
COMMISSIONED US TO DO.
00:01:49.64\00:01:52.71
TAKE AN UNDILUTED THREE ANGELS
MESSAGE AND TO ALL THE WORLD.
00:01:52.71\00:02:00.98
>> H FRIENDS, WELCOME TO
SPRING CAMP MEETING 2019 AT
00:02:00.98\00:02:06.29

SAY AMEN. WE ARE
CONTINUING TO RIDE UPON
00:02:09.42\00:02:11.59
THE WAVE OF THE POWER THE
LORD HAS RELEASED IN THIS CAMP
00:02:11.59\00:02:14.50
MEETING. IT'S NOT A CLICHÉ.
00:02:14.50\00:02:16.67
WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT
THE LAW OF LOVE AND LIBERTY, THE
00:02:16.67\00:02:20.24
TEN COMMANDMENTS.
WE'LL CONTINUE ON THAT, PASS
00:02:20.24\00:02:24.47
TO KAMERON DeVASHER,
DIRECTOR OF THE MICHIGAN
00:02:24.47\00:02:27.81
CONFERENCE IS COVERING
COMMANDMENT EIGHT, THOU SHALL
00:02:27.81\00:02:33.18
NOT STEAL. SIMPLE BUT
PROSECUTE      PROFOUND.
00:02:33.18\00:02:39.82
HE IS GOING TO DIVIDE
THAT, RIGHTLY DWIGHTING WORD OF
00:02:39.82\00:02:44.19
TRUTH. WE'LL BE BELOWED.
00:02:44.19\00:02:47.10
PASTOR RYAN DAY WILL PREPARE
OUR HEARTS WITH A WONDERFUL
00:02:47.10\00:02:50.10
LONG SIGHTED

00:02:50.10\00:02:53.23
AFTER HE SINGS, THE NEXT
VOLLEY YOU WILL HEAR IS THAT

00:06:13.80\00:06:39.69
THANK YOU, JESUS. >> I
DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR YOU.
00:06:39.69\00:06:51.27
ALL GOD'S PEOPLE
SAID? AMEN MUCH AMEN.
00:06:51.27\00:06:54.81
HAVE YOU BEEN
BLESSED TODAY ALREADY?
00:06:54.81\00:06:57.01
FANTASTIC. FANTASTIC.
00:06:57.01\00:06:58.35
I BELIEVE THAT THE SABBATH
DAY CONTINUES, DOES IT NOT?
00:06:58.35\00:07:01.38
AND WE HAVE EVEN MORE
TO LEARN FROM GOD'S WORD.
00:07:01.38\00:07:05.19
WE'LL HAVE A STUDY
FROM SCRIPTURE TODAY.
00:07:05.19\00:07:10.66
YOU SHALL NOT STEAL.
AS IN THE NEW KING JAMES
00:07:10.66\00:07:18.10
VERSION, THE EIGHTH
COMMANDMENT IS THE SHORTEST AT
00:07:18.10\00:07:23.77
ONLY 16 CHARACTERS
AND FOUR SMALL WORDS.
00:07:23.77\00:07:29.68
NOT THAT IT'S A COMPETITION
BUT IN THE KING JAIME'S THE
00:07:29.68\00:07:34.52
PROHIBITED ACTION IS
KILL INSTEAD OF "MURDER."
00:07:34.52\00:07:37.45
SO TECHNICALLY IN THE KING
JAMES VERSION, THE SHORTEST
00:07:37.45\00:07:41.86
COMMANDMENT IS THE SIXTH
COMMANDMENT BUT THE NEW KING
00:07:41.86\00:07:46.59
JAMES IS THE EIGHTH COMMANDMENT.
00:07:46.59\00:07:48.46
THE POINT REMAINS, I'VE BEEN
PREACHING NEARLY AN HOUR LONG
00:07:48.46\00:07:53.77
SERMON ON A FOUR-WORD
COMMAND. FURTHERMORE, THIS
00:07:53.77\00:08:04.58
STRAIGHTFORWARD COMMAND
EMPLOYS NO ELEMENT, NO POETRY
00:08:04.58\00:08:09.85
OR PROPHECY.
THERE ARE NO SYMBOLS TO
00:08:09.85\00:08:12.52
DECODE. THERE
ARE NO CHARACTERS TO
00:08:12.52\00:08:15.96
EXPLORE. NO
NUANCED MEANINGS HIDDEN IN
00:08:15.96\00:08:19.36
THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE. I
WOULD LOVE TO SAY, DID YOU
00:08:19.36\00:08:21.96
KNOW IN HEBREW THE REAL
-- IT MEANS STEAL THERE, TOO.
00:08:21.96\00:08:30.94
DESPITE ITS CON SIX, THE
EIGHTH COMMANDMENT OF GOD'S
00:08:30.94\00:08:36.21
MORAL LAW SPEAKS TOP
THE MOST CENTRAL ISSUE.
00:08:36.21\00:08:40.95
BEYOND THAT IT HAS INCREDIBLE
TACTICAL IMPLICATIONS FOR OUR
00:08:40.95\00:08:47.19
EVERYDAY LIVES.
FINALLY, IT PREPARES US FOR
00:08:47.19\00:08:50.03
THE CLOSING THEMES.
THERE IS A LOT IN THIS EIGHTH
00:08:50.03\00:08:54.50
COMMANDMENT. BEFORE
WE GET OUR STUDY, BOW
00:08:54.50\00:08:58.03
OUR HEADS FOR A PRAYER.
DEARP HEAVENLY FATHER, I THANK
00:08:58.03\00:09:01.34
YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS DAY,
FOR ANY DAY, REALLY, IT'S A GIFT
00:09:01.34\00:09:07.11
FROM YOU, BUT THE
SABBATH DAY PARTICULARLY.
00:09:07.11\00:09:08.58
YOU SET APART FROM THE
VERY BEGINNING OF OUR WORLD FOR
00:09:08.58\00:09:13.31
REST, FOR WORSHIP, FOR
FELLOWSHIP, AND FOUR SERVICAL
00:09:13.31\00:09:18.19
NOW, LORD, AS WE COME TOGETHER
TO STUDY YOUR WORD, WE WOULD
00:09:18.19\00:09:21.92
ASK AND EXPECT THAT YOU
WOULD FULFILL THE PROMISE GIVEN,
00:09:21.92\00:09:25.93
THAT YOU WOULD LEAD US INTO
ALL TRUTH BY THE SPIRIT OF THE
00:09:25.93\00:09:28.93
TRUTH. THAT WE ASK FOR THE HOLY
00:09:28.93\00:09:31.67
SPIRIT TO BE HERE
TODAY TO SPEAK TO EACH OF US
00:09:31.67\00:09:34.07
INDIVIDUALLY, AS YOU KNOW WE
HAVE NEED, I PRAY IT IN JESUS'
00:09:34.07\00:09:39.31
NAME. AMEN.
00:09:39.31\00:09:42.38
IF I WERE TO ASK YOU WHAT
SINGLE GREAT PRINCIPLE IS GOD
00:09:42.38\00:09:50.49
BUILT UPON WHAT IS THE CENTRAL
TRAIT OF CHARACTER THAT SUMS
00:09:50.49\00:09:53.92
UP IN ONE WORD WHO AND
WHAT GOD IS, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
00:09:53.92\00:10:00.43
LOVE. FIRST
JOHN, CHAPTER 4, VERSUS
00:10:00.43\00:10:03.20
7. LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
00:10:03.20\00:10:05.60
FOR LOVE OF US GOD AND HE
WHO DOES NOT LOVE DOES NOT KNOW
00:10:05.60\00:10:11.07
GOD, FR GOD IS LOVE.
AS THE PASSAGE CONTINUES.
00:10:11.07\00:10:17.68
HE SAYS IN THIS THE
LOVE OF GOD IS MANIFESTED.
00:10:17.68\00:10:22.05
I WAS MENTIONING ON THE
SABBATH THIS MORNING THAT LOVE
00:10:22.05\00:10:24.39
IS NOT A FEELING.
IT IS A PRINCIPLE.
00:10:24.39\00:10:29.69
IN SOME CASES A
BEAUTIFUL THEORY.
00:10:29.69\00:10:31.83
BUT NOTICE HOW IT
SHIFTS FROM THEORY.
00:10:31.83\00:10:35.20
IN THIS, THE LOVE OF GOD
IS MANIFESTED AND GOD HAS SENT
00:10:35.20\00:10:40.00
HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON INTO
THE WORLD THAT HE MIGHT LIVE
00:10:40.00\00:10:43.27
THROUGH HIM. IN THIS IS LOVE.
00:10:43.27\00:10:45.17
NOT THAT WE LOVE GOD. HE
LOVES US AND SENT HIS SON
00:10:45.17\00:10:49.74
FOR OUR SINS. IF
GOD LOVES US, WE HAVE TO
00:10:49.74\00:10:56.18
LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
THIS LOVE OF GOD IS
00:10:56.18\00:10:58.99
MANIFESTED. THAT MEANS SHOWN.
00:10:58.99\00:11:01.09
DEMONSTRATED. REVEALED.
00:11:01.09\00:11:03.26
WHEN GOD SENT HIS ONLY
BEGOTTEN SON INTO THE WRLD.
00:11:03.26\00:11:07.40
THE THEORY OF GOD'S LOVE WAS
PUT INTO PRACTICE WHEN HE GAVE
00:11:07.40\00:11:10.97
HIMSELF FOR US. AS WE
NEED THROUGH SCRIPTURE
00:11:10.97\00:11:16.71
AND YOU LOOK AT THIS DEEPER
EXAMINATION OF THIS LOVE OF
00:11:16.71\00:11:20.14
GOD, YOU WILL NOTICE THERE
IS AN UNCANNY CONNECTION BETWEEN
00:11:20.14\00:11:24.95
LOVING AND GIVING. FOR EXAMPLE.
00:11:24.95\00:11:32.62
GALATIANS, CHAPTER 2.
00:11:32.62\00:11:34.09
IT IS NO LONGER I WHO LIVE
BUT CHRIST LIVES WITHIN ME.
00:11:34.09\00:11:38.43
I LIVE BY FAITH AND THE SON
OF GOD WHO LOVES ME AND GAVE
00:11:38.43\00:11:43.93
HIMSELF FOR ME. LOVE.
00:11:43.93\00:11:47.04
GIVE. EPHESIANS CAPTAINER 5.
00:11:47.04\00:11:50.34
HUSBANDS LOVE YOUR WIVES.
JUST AS CHRIST ALSO LOVED THE
00:11:50.34\00:11:54.54
CHURCH AND GAVE HIMSELF FOR HER.
00:11:54.54\00:11:57.18
LOVE. GIVE.
00:11:57.18\00:12:02.32
JOHN 3:16 FOR GOD SO
LOVED THE WORLD HE GAVE HIS ONLY
00:12:02.32\00:12:05.89
BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOEVER
BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT
00:12:05.89\00:12:11.23
PERISH. THIS IS PAGE 21.
00:12:11.23\00:12:14.66
LOOKING UNTO JESUS, WE SEE
THAT IT IS THE GLORY OF OUR
00:12:14.66\00:12:20.14
GOD TO GIVE. TO CONTINUE.
00:12:20.14\00:12:26.11
I SEEK NOT MINE ONLY GLORY,
KWOAGHT CHRIST, BUFF THE GLORY
00:12:26.11\00:12:29.78
HIM THAT SENT ME IN THESE
WORDS IS SET FORTH THESE GREAT
00:12:29.78\00:12:35.98
PRINCIPLES WHICH IS THE
LAW OF LIFE FOR THE UNIVERSE.
00:12:35.98\00:12:40.52
THE GREAT PRINCIPLES THAT
IS THE LAW LIFE FOR THE WHOLE
00:12:40.52\00:12:45.29
UNIVERSE. ALL
THINGS CHRIST RECEIVES
00:12:45.29\00:12:49.20
FROM GOD, BUT HE TOOK TO GIVE.
SO IN THE HEAVENLY COURT, IN
00:12:49.20\00:12:56.44
HIS MINISTRY THROUGH THE
BELOVED SON, THE FATHER'S LIFE
00:12:56.44\00:13:00.81
FLOWS OUT THROUGH ALL.
THROUGH THE SON IT RURCHES
00:13:00.81\00:13:03.55
FROM PRAISE AND JOWS SERVICE.
THUS THROUGH CHRIST -- I LOVE
00:13:03.55\00:13:09.72
THIS PHRASE -- THE
CIRCUIT OF BEN HE SENSE.
00:13:09.72\00:13:13.52
THAT IS THE DOING OF GOOD.
THIS IS A CIRCUIT, ONE TAKES
00:13:13.52\00:13:18.73
TO GIVE. THE NEXT
ONE RECEIVES TO GIVE
00:13:18.73\00:13:22.83
AGAIN. THE CIRCUIT IS COMPLETE
00:13:22.83\00:13:27.57
REPRESENTING THE CHARACTER
OF THE GREAT CAPITAL G-GIVER.
00:13:27.57\00:13:33.34
THE LAW OF LIFE.
THE SELFISH CHARACTER OF
00:13:33.34\00:13:42.82
SATAN. THE VERY
NEXT WORD SAYS, IF
00:13:42.82\00:13:46.35
HEAVEN ITSELF THIS LAW -- THAT
IS THE LAW OF SEVERLESS GIVING
00:13:46.35\00:13:53.63
-- WAS BROKEN. SIN
ORIGINATED I SELF-SEEKING.
00:13:53.63\00:13:57.07
WE ARE FAMILIAR WITH ISAIAH
LAMENTATION ABOUT THE FALL OF
00:13:57.07\00:14:01.84
LUCIFER, THAT HE FELL FROM
HEAVEN SAYING I WILL ASCEND
00:14:01.84\00:14:06.01
INTO HEAVEN. I
WILL EXALT MY THRONE.
00:14:06.01\00:14:09.54
I WILL SIT ON THE
MOUND EVER THE CONGREGATION.
00:14:09.54\00:14:12.41
I WILL ASENDS ABOVE
THE HEIGHTS OF THE CROWD.
00:14:12.41\00:14:15.58
I WILL BE LIFE, THE
MOST HIGH. 1888, PAGE 1763.
00:14:15.58\00:14:28.33
ALL SIN IS SELFISHNESS.
ALL SIN IS SELFISHNESS.
00:14:28.33\00:14:36.04
SATAN'S FIRST
SIN WAS SELFISHNESS.
00:14:36.04\00:14:39.44
HE THOUGHT TO GRASP
POWER, THAT IS TO TAKE IT.
00:14:39.44\00:14:44.61
TO EXALT SELF.
ASPECIES OF INSANITY LED HIM
00:14:44.61\00:14:50.92
TO SEEK TO SUPERSEDE GOD.
THE TEMPTATION WHICH LED ADAM
00:14:50.92\00:14:57.59
TO SIN WAS THE FALSE STATEMENT
OF SATAN THAT IT WAS POSSIBLE
00:14:57.59\00:15:00.86
FOR HIM TO ATTAIN SOMETHING
MORE THAN HE ALREADY ENJOYED.
00:15:00.86\00:15:05.27
TO TASTY, TO ATTAIN SOMETHING
MORE THAN HE ALREADY ENJOYED.
00:15:05.27\00:15:11.34
POSSIBLE FOR HIM
TO BE AS GOD HIMSELF.
00:15:11.34\00:15:15.34
THUS SEEDS OF
SELFISHNESS WERE SEASON
00:15:15.34\00:15:20.32
SOWN IN THE HUMAN
HEART. THINK ABOUT THIS.
00:15:20.32\00:15:23.08
DISSATISFIED. HE
CALLS IT A SPECIES OF
00:15:23.08\00:15:27.42
INSANITY. NOT FOR
MOMENT DO YOU SAY THE
00:15:27.42\00:15:31.09
SEASON SATAN REBELD -- TO
EXPLAIN IT IS TO EXCUSE IT.
00:15:31.09\00:15:37.27
A SPECIES OF
INSANITY MEANS HE'S NUTS.
00:15:37.27\00:15:40.77
CRAZY. HE WAS THE MOST HIGHLY
00:15:40.77\00:15:44.64
EXALTED CREATOR, YET HE BECAME
DISSATISFIED WITH THE PLACE
00:15:44.64\00:15:48.11
ASSIGNED HIM IN HEAVEN AND
HE THOUGHT TO ATTAIN OR TO TAKE
00:15:48.11\00:15:52.95
WHAT WAS NOT RIGHTFULLY HIS.
NAMELY, THE POSITION AND POWER
00:15:52.95\00:15:58.92
OF GOD. IT WAS
THIS DISCONTENT THAT
00:15:58.92\00:16:01.86
MANIFESTED IN OPEN REBELLION
AGAINST GOD RESULTING IN HIS
00:16:01.86\00:16:07.23
EXPULSION FROM GOD'S KINGDOM.
INTERESTINGLY, 4,000 YEARS
00:16:07.23\00:16:14.30
LATER, WHEN JOHN THE BAPTIST,
SOUGHT TO PREPARE GOD'S PEOPLE
00:16:14.30\00:16:19.34
FOR THE FIRST COMING OF JESUS,
IT WAS A REFORMATION OF THIS
00:16:19.34\00:16:24.05
HEAVENLY PRINCIPLE OF
CONTENTED LIVING AND SELFLESS
00:16:24.05\00:16:28.55
GIVING THAT WAS ONE OF THE
MAIN FEATURES OF HIS CALL TO
00:16:28.55\00:16:32.05
REPENT. GO TO LUKE CHAPTER 3.
00:16:32.05\00:16:36.62
MATTHEW, MARK,
LUKE, CHAPTER 3, VERSE 7.
00:16:36.62\00:16:39.59
IF YOU LOOK AT THIS APPEAL
THAT JOHN THE BAPTIST MAKES TO
00:16:39.59\00:16:43.73
THOSE COMING FOR BAPTISM AND
CONVERSION, HE WANTED TO MAKE
00:16:43.73\00:16:47.07
SURE IT WAS SOME
SUPERFICIAL POPULARITY.
00:16:47.07\00:16:56.38
THEN HE SAID TO THE MULTIPLE
TUESDAY, A BROOD OF VIPER.
00:16:56.38\00:17:02.65
I LEAD THROUGH SCRIPTURE, I
LOOK JOHN THE BAPTIST, I LOOK
00:17:02.65\00:17:08.02
AT JESUS, THESE PEOPLE
ARE COMING TO GET BAPTIZED.
00:17:08.02\00:17:13.90
HE SAID, NO. I'M
NOT ADVOCATING CALLING
00:17:13.90\00:17:18.20
NAMES. BUT HE
KNEW THAT THERE WAS
00:17:18.20\00:17:20.34
SOMETHING MISSING
IN THEIR EXPERIENCE.
00:17:20.34\00:17:23.30
IT WAS ALL THEORY THAT
HADN'T BEEN PUT INTO PRACTICE.
00:17:23.30\00:17:28.04
BLOOD OF VIPERS --
THEREFORE BEAR FRUIT WORTHY OF
00:17:28.04\00:17:34.62
REPENTANCE. DON'T
SAY, WE HAD ABRAHAM OF
00:17:34.62\00:17:37.39
OUR FATHER. I SAY
GOD IS ABLE TO RAISE UP
00:17:37.39\00:17:39.19
CHILDREN FROM THESE STONES.
EVEN NOW THE ACT, THE ROOT OF
00:17:39.19\00:17:44.76
THE TREE. HE SAID
I WANT TO GET TO THE
00:17:44.76\00:17:46.39
BOTTOM OF THE PROBLEM.
THIS IS A CUTTING MESSAGE.
00:17:46.39\00:17:51.63
THEREFORE, EVERY TREE WHICH
DOES NOT BEAR GOOD FRUIT IS
00:17:51.63\00:17:54.60
CUT DOWN AND
THROWN INTO THE FIRE.
00:17:54.60\00:17:56.17
NOTICE THE RESPONSE. THE
PEOPLE ASK HIM, VERSE 10,
00:17:56.17\00:17:59.17
SAYING WHAT SHALL WE DO THEN?
HE ANSWERED AND SAID TO THEM,
00:17:59.17\00:18:04.78
HE WHO HAS TWO STUDENT ICES,
LET HIM GIVE TO HIM WHO HAS
00:18:04.78\00:18:11.12
NONE. HE WHO HAS
FOOD, LET THEM DO
00:18:11.12\00:18:15.76
LIKEWISE. VERSE
12, TAX COLLECTORS
00:18:15.76\00:18:19.16
CONTAINMENT TO COME BAPTIZED.
TEACHER WHAT SHALL WE DO?
00:18:19.16\00:18:22.90
HE SAID TO THEM, COLLECT NO
MORE THAN WHAT IS APPOINTED TO
00:18:22.90\00:18:28.77
YOU. FIRST 14.
00:18:28.77\00:18:31.94
LIKE WISE THE SOLDIERS IS
CAME TO HIM SAYING WHAT SHALL WE
00:18:31.94\00:18:34.44
DO. HE SAID TO THEM, DO NOT
00:18:34.44\00:18:36.64
INTIMIDATE ANYONE OR ACCUSE
FALSELY AND BE CONTENT WITH
00:18:36.64\00:18:39.61
YOUR WAGES.
SOLDIERS, BE HAPPY WITH YOUR
00:18:39.61\00:18:44.32
SALARY AND DON'T TAKE
MORE THROUGH INTIMIDATION AND
00:18:44.32\00:18:47.16
FORCE. TAX
COLLECTORS, ONLY COLLECT
00:18:47.16\00:18:49.39
WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO AND
DON'T TAKE MORE THAN WHAT HAS
00:18:49.39\00:18:52.93
BEEN APPORTIONED TO YOU.
IF YOU HAVE TWO THINGS, GIVE
00:18:52.93\00:18:56.93
TO THOSE. ALL
THREE EXAMPLES GO BACK TO
00:18:56.93\00:19:00.67
THIS PRINCIPLE OF LOVE
AND ITS HEAVENLY IDEALS.
00:19:00.67\00:19:07.18
SIMPLE CONTENTMENT WAS
SOMETHING PAUL DEVELOPED.
00:19:07.18\00:19:10.31
HE SAYS IN FLIPPIANS
CHAPTER 4, VERSES 11 AND 12.
00:19:10.31\00:19:14.38
HE TESTIFIED, I HAVE LEARNED
IN WHATEVER STATE I AM TO BE
00:19:14.38\00:19:18.75
CONTENT. I KNOW HOW TO ABASE.
00:19:18.75\00:19:25.69
EVERYWHERE AND IN ALL THINGS
I HAVE LEARNED TO BE FULL AND
00:19:25.69\00:19:29.60
HUNGRY, BOTH TO
ABOUND AND TO IT SUFFER NEED.
00:19:29.60\00:19:32.30
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, I
DRAW GREAT COMFORT FROM THE FACT
00:19:32.30\00:19:38.34
THAT APPARENTLY EVEN THE
ESTEEMED AAPOSTLE PAUL HAD TO
00:19:38.34\00:19:44.25
LEARN TO BE CONTENT IN
WHATEVER STATE HE WAS IN.
00:19:44.25\00:19:50.39
GIVEN OUR SINFUL FALLEN
NATES, WE ARE NOT NATURALLY ZAHN
00:19:50.39\00:19:53.59
TOWARD THE HEAVENLY
IDEAL OF CONTENTED LIVING.
00:19:53.59\00:19:57.86
THIS IS WHY TIME AND
AGAIN SOME OF THE MOST PRACTICAL
00:19:57.86\00:20:00.26
INSTRUCTIONS OF CHRISTIAN
LIVING FOUND IN SCRIPTURE
00:20:00.26\00:20:04.93
REVOLVES AROUND THIS VERY THEME.
00:20:04.93\00:20:08.74
TIMOTHY, 6, STARTION VERSE
6. GODLINESS WITH CONTENTNESS IS
00:20:08.74\00:20:15.51
GREAT. FOR WE
BROUGHT NOTHING INTO
00:20:15.51\00:20:18.08
THIS WORLD AND IT IS CERTAIN
WE CAN CARRY NOTHING OUT.
00:20:18.08\00:20:20.88
HAVING FOOD AND CLOTHING WITH
THESE WE SHALL BE INTENLTSDS.
00:20:20.88\00:20:24.89
FOR THOSE DESIRE TO BE
RICH FALL INTO THE SNARE AND
00:20:24.89\00:20:28.29
FOOLISH AND HARMFUL LUST
WHICH DROWN MEN IN PERDITION.
00:20:28.29\00:20:33.73
THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT
OF ALL EVIL, WHICH SOME STRAY.
00:20:33.73\00:20:43.94
HEBREWS CHAPTER 
 13-RBGS 5 AND 6.
00:20:43.94\00:20:47.58
BE CONTENT WITH
SUCH THINGS AS YOU HAVE.
00:20:47.58\00:20:50.48
FOR HE HIMSELF SAID SAYSLY
NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FOR SAKE
00:20:50.48\00:20:54.75
YOU. THE LORD IS
MY HELPER,LY WILL
00:20:54.75\00:20:57.65
NOT FEAR, WHAT CAN MAN DO TO ME?
00:20:57.65\00:21:01.92
PSALM 37, VERSE 33 AND 34.
TRUST IN THE LORD AND DO GOOD.
00:21:01.92\00:21:05.69
FEED ON HIS FAITHFULNESS.
DELIGHT YOURSELF IN THE LORD
00:21:05.69\00:21:10.53
AND HE SHALL GIVE YOU
THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART.
00:21:10.53\00:21:15.10
OKAY. CLEARLY WE
ARE SUPPOSED TO BE
00:21:15.10\00:21:18.77
SATISFIED WITH THE THINGS WE
HAVE AND NOT TAKE FROM OTHERS
00:21:18.77\00:21:22.54
WHAT IS NOT OURS. BY
GOD'S GRACE WE SHARE LIKE
00:21:22.54\00:21:29.42
ALL TO BE CONTENT
IN EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE.
00:21:29.42\00:21:32.72
GOT IT. IF WE
CLOSE THIS MESSAGE RIGHT
00:21:32.72\00:21:37.79
THERE, ALL WOULD BE
WELL. EXCEPT WE STILL HAVE MORE
00:21:37.79\00:21:43.26
TIME. I BELIEVE
THERE IS A DEEPER
00:21:43.26\00:21:46.67
LESSON IN THE
EIGHTH COMMANDMENT.
00:21:46.67\00:21:50.47
DON'T STEAL STUFF
YOU WANT, BUT DON'T NEED.
00:21:50.47\00:21:56.18
SURE. WE CAN ALL AGREE ON THAT.
00:21:56.18\00:21:59.55
BUT WHAT ABOUT
STEALING STUFF WE DO NEED?
00:21:59.55\00:22:03.62
IS THAT WRONG? I
APPRECIATE YOUR GUESSES.
00:22:03.62\00:22:13.29
WE HAVE A FEW
MINUTES. LET'S TEST IT OUT.
00:22:13.29\00:22:16.20
AT THIS POINT, I SHOULD TELL
YOU, IT DOES MEAN WHEN MEDIUM
00:22:16.20\00:22:26.04
SAY, LET'S BE HONEST WITH YOU.
IT IMPLIES EVERYTHING ELSE UP
00:22:26.04\00:22:29.91
TO THIS POINT HAS BEEN A
SHAM. I DON'T SAY HONESTLY.
00:22:29.91\00:22:37.72
IT SHOULD BE IS HONESTLY.
I WILL TELL YOU BY FAR THE
00:22:37.72\00:22:41.42
MOST CONTROVERSIAL SERMONS
I HAVE MUCH PREACHED HAVE BEEN
00:22:41.42\00:22:44.29
ON THE 10 COMMANDMENTS.
I PRESENT TOPICS LIKE GOD'S
00:22:44.29\00:22:50.67
IDEAL OF MALE LEADERSHIP
IN THE HOME AND THE CHURCH.
00:22:50.67\00:22:53.17
THE NEED TO
DISREGARD WEARING JEWELRY.
00:22:53.17\00:22:56.87
HOW WE'RE NOT TO DRINK
CAFFEINE AND OTHER SUCH HOT
00:22:56.87\00:23:01.34
BUTTON ISSUES.
NOTHING SERVE SEVENTH-DAY
00:23:01.34\00:23:04.21
ADVENTIST CHURCH MEMBERS LIKE
THE ASSERTION THAT GOD EXPECTS
00:23:04.21\00:23:07.28
US TO KEEP ALL 10
COMMANDMENTS ALTER THE TIME.
00:23:07.28\00:23:11.45
ALL THE TIME.
FAITHFULNESS TO GOD'S LAW IS
00:23:11.45\00:23:15.29
ALWAYS DISCUSSED IN THEORY.
BUT DEMONSTRATED IMPROPERLY.
00:23:15.29\00:23:21.10
IN THE ABSTRACT THERE IS MAYBE
UNANIMOUS AGREEMENT, SURE WE
00:23:21.10\00:23:26.37
SHOULD NEVER
STEAL. I LIKE YOU A LOT.
00:23:26.37\00:23:36.75
WE NEED MORE PEOPLE IN THE
CHURCH -- WE NEED MORE TWO-WAY
00:23:36.75\00:23:41.75
PREACHING. LET ME
ASK YOU THIS RHETORICAL
00:23:41.75\00:23:44.39
QUESTION. IS IT
EVER OKAY OR NECESSARY
00:23:44.39\00:23:47.36
TO STEAL? COULD A
SITUATION EVER ARISE
00:23:47.36\00:23:50.39
WHEN STEALING IS NOT ONLY
ACCEPTABLE, BUT EVEN REQUIRED?
00:23:50.39\00:23:54.83
FOR EXAMPLE. IS IT
OKAY OR NECESSARY TO
00:23:54.83\00:23:58.50
STEAL IN ORDER TO GET
MONEY TO FEED YOUR FAMILY?
00:23:58.50\00:24:03.57
I'M NOT SAYING ROB A BANK.
BUT JUST FUDGE YOUR TIME CARD
00:24:03.57\00:24:07.74
A LITTLE BIT.
WITHHOLDING TITHES AND
00:24:07.74\00:24:12.65
OFFERINGS, WHICH BY THE
WAY THE BIBLE CALLS ROBBERY
00:24:12.65\00:24:16.25
AGAINST GOD. WHAT
IF YOU PAID A LOT OF
00:24:16.25\00:24:18.79
MONEY IN SCHOOL AND ON
THAT BORDERLINE OF NEEDING JUST
00:24:18.79\00:24:22.49
ENOUGH GRADE TO PASS, YOU
DON'T WANT TO TAKE THE CLASS
00:24:22.49\00:24:25.59
AGAIN, IF YOU JUST TAKE THAT
ANSWER FROM THE QUIZ NEXT TO
00:24:25.59\00:24:30.73
YOU. HOW ABOUT
TO GET LIFE-SAVING
00:24:30.73\00:24:34.54
MEDICINE FOR A LOVED ONE?
SURELY WHEN IT'S A LITERAL
00:24:34.54\00:24:39.11
MATTER OF LIFE AND
DEATH, THAT'S OKAY, RIGHT?
00:24:39.11\00:24:47.58
MERELY MENTIONING SOME
OF THESE POSSIBLE SCENARIOS
00:24:47.58\00:24:50.02
REVEALS THAT WE MIGHT
HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE EIGHTH
00:24:50.02\00:24:54.06
COMMANDMENT AFTER ALL.
WHILE IN THEORY WE MIGHT AGREE
00:24:54.06\00:24:57.89
STEALING IS ALWAYS
WRONG. IN PRACTICE WE MIGHT BE
00:24:57.89\00:24:59.86
TEMPTED TO THINK THAT TAKING
WHAT ISN'T OURS IS OKAY OR
00:24:59.86\00:25:03.13
EVEN NECESSARY IN
CERTAIN SITUATIONS.
00:25:03.13\00:25:06.74
INSTEAD OF HOLDING IT ALL
AS BAD WE SUDDENLY ADHERE TO A
00:25:06.74\00:25:11.87
GRADUATED SCALE
OF THEFT MORALITY.
00:25:11.87\00:25:14.64
I'M GUESSING MANY
PEOPLE'S ETHICAL HIERARCHY IS A
00:25:14.64\00:25:20.25
THREE-TIERED STRUCTURE
THAT GOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
00:25:20.25\00:25:22.62
SMALL, MEDIUM, LARGE. SMALL.
00:25:22.62\00:25:24.72
YOU KNOW THAT STEALING WHEN
NO ONE WILL PROBABLY EVER KNOW
00:25:24.72\00:25:27.86
AND NO ONE WILL CARE
EVEN IF THEY DID KNOW.
00:25:27.86\00:25:32.59
WHICH WOULD INCLUDE MICRO
STEPS AS PENCILS AND CANDY.
00:25:32.59\00:25:39.63
YOU REALLY
SHOULDN'T, BUT, YOU KNOW.
00:25:39.63\00:25:44.41
STEP UP TO MEDIUM OFFENSES.
STEALING THINGS THAT SOCIETY
00:25:44.41\00:25:49.24
DEEMS SIGNIFICANT AND MIGHT
EVEN CARRY CIVIL PENALTIES IF
00:25:49.24\00:25:53.82
CAUGHT. THIS INCLUDES STEALING
00:25:53.82\00:25:55.25
SOMEONE'S PROPERTY LIKE A
CAR OR CHEATING ON YOUR TAXES,
00:25:55.25\00:25:59.42
ETC. OF COURSE, OUR RESPONSE IS
00:25:59.42\00:26:02.42
ABSOLUTELY NOT. BAD CHRISTIAN.
00:26:02.42\00:26:06.36
BUT WE SAY IT IN A
JESUS LOVES YOU KIND OF WAY.
00:26:06.36\00:26:09.80
STILL, THAT'S THE
MORAL OF THE STORY.
00:26:09.80\00:26:12.07
BUT THEN THERE IS
THE LARGE ISSUES OF LIFE.
00:26:12.07\00:26:16.27
STEALING WHEN
SOMEONE'S LIFE IS AT STAKE.
00:26:16.27\00:26:18.67
AGAIN FOR THE
MONEY THAT'S NEEDED.
00:26:18.67\00:26:20.44
THE MEDICINE THAT'S
NEEDED TO SAVE A LIFE.
00:26:20.44\00:26:25.98
I'M GUESSING THAT MANY PEOPLE
HAVE A MORE FUZZY READING OF
00:26:25.98\00:26:31.25
THE EIGHTH COMMANDMENT
IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES.
00:26:31.25\00:26:34.39
GO AHEAD, GOD WILL UNDERSTAND.
AFTER ALL, IT'S BETTER TO GET
00:26:34.39\00:26:40.40
FORGIVENESS THAN PERMISSION.
I'M LOOKING FOR THAT PASSAGE
00:26:40.40\00:26:43.26
IN SCRIPTURE. I
HAVEN'T SEEN IT WRITTEN.
00:26:43.26\00:26:45.60
IN SUCH A CIRCUMSTANCE,
DON'T I HAVE TO STEAL?
00:26:45.60\00:26:50.47
IT WOULD BE WRONG
NOT TO STEAL, RIGHT?
00:26:50.47\00:26:52.67
WHEN SATAN HAS BOXED ME INTO
A CORNER AND THERE IS REALLY NO
00:26:52.67\00:26:56.61
CHOICE LEFT. I WOULD
CONTEND MOST PEOPLE IN
00:26:56.61\00:27:05.05
THE WORLD, PERHAPS EVERY
SOME IN THE CHURCH MIGHT HAVE A
00:27:05.05\00:27:10.36
MORAL HIGH ARCHITECTURE, WE
HAVE BEEN GIVEN CLEAR COUNSEL
00:27:10.36\00:27:13.43
THAT GOD'S PEOPLE ARE NEVER
TO BE -- I LOVE THIS PHRASE --
00:27:13.43\00:27:16.67
THE SPORT OF CIRCUMSTANCES.
PAGE 240, ADD 70 AT HOME.
00:27:16.67\00:27:25.81
MANY WHO DO WELL UNDER
FAVORABLE CIRCUMSTANCES SEEM
00:27:25.81\00:27:29.04
TO UNDER GO A TRANSFORMATION
OF CHARACTER UNDER ADVERSITY
00:27:29.04\00:27:33.31
AND TRIALS.
THEY DETERIORATE INTO
00:27:33.31\00:27:37.62
PROPORTION TO THEIR TROUBLES.
GOD NEVER DESIGNS THAT WE
00:27:37.62\00:27:41.69
SHOULD BE THE
SPORT OF CIRCUMSTANCES.
00:27:41.69\00:27:47.56
PAGE 331. MEN
CREATED A FREE MORAL
00:27:47.56\00:27:52.03
AGENT, LIKE THE INHABITS OF
ALL OTHER WORLDS HE SHOULD BE
00:27:52.03\00:27:56.84
SUBJECTED TO THE TEST OF
OBEDIENCE BUT HE IS NEVER
00:27:56.84\00:27:59.77
BROUGHT INTO A POSITION THAT
YIELDING TO EVEN IS A MATTER
00:27:59.77\00:28:04.35
OF NECESSITY. NO
TRIAL IS PRIME MINISTERED
00:28:04.35\00:28:06.11
TO COME TO HIM WHICH
HE IS UNABLE TO RESIST.
00:28:06.11\00:28:10.45
GOD MADE SUCH AMPLE PROVISION
THAT MAN NEED NEVER HAVE BEEN
00:28:10.45\00:28:15.36
DEFEATED FROM THE
CONFLICT OF SATE ISEN.
00:28:15.36\00:28:18.73
100 PAGES LATER, 421, IT SAYS
ALL W.H.O. PROFESS UNDER THE
00:28:18.73\00:28:24.73
MOST SACRED OBLIGATION AND
TO EXERCISE SEVER-CONTROL UNDER
00:28:24.73\00:28:28.07
THE GREATEST PROVOCATION.
GOD MADE AMPLE PROVISION FOR
00:28:28.07\00:28:32.71
HIS PEOPLE AND IF THEY RELY
ON HIS STRENGTH THEY WILL NEVER
00:28:32.71\00:28:35.94
BECOME THE SPORT
OF CIRCUMSTANCES.
00:28:35.94\00:28:37.61
THE STRONGEST
TEMPTATION CANNOT EXCUSE SIN.
00:28:37.61\00:28:41.48
THE PRESSURE BROUGHT
TO BEAR UPON THE SOUL.
00:28:41.48\00:28:45.12
TRANCE GRETION OUR OWN
ACT. IT IS NOT IN THE POWER OF
00:28:45.12\00:28:48.29
EARTH OR HELL TO EXCEL   
COMPEL ANYONE TO DO EVENLY.
00:28:48.29\00:28:56.20
HOWEVER SEVERE GOD PROVIDED
FOR IT AND IN HIS STRENGTH, WE
00:28:56.20\00:29:01.50
MAY CONQUER. THINK
ABOUT THAT, FRIENDS.
00:29:01.50\00:29:07.24
THAT VERY LAST PHRASE
THERE. THAT KEY TO VICTORY.
00:29:07.24\00:29:10.35
IN HIS SRENGTH, WE MAY CONQUER.
00:29:10.35\00:29:16.38
RECOGNIZING THAT
INTENSE TEMPTATION, TRYING
00:29:16.38\00:29:19.25
CIRCUMSTANCES, AND EVEN LIFE-
LIFE-THREATENING PERSECUTION
00:29:19.25\00:29:24.43
WOULD LEAD SOME TO STRAY.
GOD NOT ONLY TOLD US WHAT TO
00:29:24.43\00:29:27.96
DO. PRAISE THE LORD.
00:29:27.96\00:29:29.50
HE SHOWED US WHAT TO DO.
FRIENDS, YOU NEED TO LOOK UNTO
00:29:29.50\00:29:35.57
JESUS. NOT JUST
FOR THEORY BUT FOR
00:29:35.57\00:29:38.61
PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF
THE GREAT PRINCIPLES OF LIFE.
00:29:38.61\00:29:42.88
HEBREWS, 2, VERSE 14. HE
HIMSELF LIKE WISE SHARED IN
00:29:42.88\00:29:47.32
THE SAME, BUT THROUGH DEATH
HE MIGHT DESTROY THE POWER OF
00:29:47.32\00:29:52.49
DEATH, THAT IS THE DEVIL AND
RELEASE THOSE WHO THROUGH FEAR
00:29:52.49\00:29:55.32
OF DEATH ARE SUBJECT TO BONDAGE.
00:29:55.32\00:29:57.83
INDEED HE DOES NOT GIVE AID TO
ANGELS BUT HE DOES GIVE AID TO
00:29:57.83\00:30:02.40
THE FEET OF ABRAHAM IN ALL
THINGS HE HAD TO BE MADE LIKE
00:30:02.40\00:30:07.04
HIS BRETHREN THAT HE IS A
FAITHFUL HIGH PRIEST IN THINGS
00:30:07.04\00:30:11.54
CONTAINING TO GOD.
FOR THAT HE HIMSELF AS
00:30:11.54\00:30:15.61
SUFFERED, HE IS ABLE TO
AID THOSE WHO ARE TEMPTED.
00:30:15.61\00:30:19.78
ISN'T IT WONDERFUL THAT GOD
IS NOT ONLY WAY UP ON THE THRONE
00:30:19.78\00:30:23.05
BUT HE CAME TO BE GOD WITH
US, THAT HE CAN SYMPATHIZE WITH
00:30:23.05\00:30:27.69
OUR CIRCUMSTANCES. HE
UNDERSTANDS THE TRIALS OF
00:30:27.69\00:30:32.19
DIFFICULTIES OF PERSECUTION,
THE OPPOSITION THAT WE FACE.
00:30:32.19\00:30:35.10
HE KNOWS WHAT WE FEEL LIKE
BUT HE IS GAME FOR VICTORY.
00:30:35.10\00:30:42.70
HEBREWS, CHAPTER 4, SEEING
WITH HAVE A GREAT HIGH PRIEST
00:30:42.70\00:30:46.27
IN JESUS THE SON OF GOD,
LET US HOLD THAT OUR CONCESSION.
00:30:46.27\00:30:50.41
WE DO NOT THE HAVE A HIGH
PRIEST WHO CANNOT SYMPATHIZE
00:30:50.41\00:30:54.38
WITH OUR WEAKNESS BUT IS AS
TEMPTED AS WE ARE, YET WITHOUT
00:30:54.38\00:30:58.52
SIN. LET US
THEREFORE COME BODILY
00:30:58.52\00:31:02.06
TO THE THRONE THAT WE MAY
OBTAIN GRACE IN THE TIME OF
00:31:02.06\00:31:08.93
NEED. KNOWING WE
CAN RELY ON GOD'S
00:31:08.93\00:31:16.74
STRENGTH HELP DEMYSTIFY
WHAT IS TOUGH MORAL DILEMMAS.
00:31:16.74\00:31:23.24
THE PROMISES OF THE
BIBLE CAN BE CLAIMED MOST.
00:31:23.24\00:31:31.35
NON-TEMPITATION HAS OVERTAKEN
UP SUCH AS IS COMMON TO MAN
00:31:31.35\00:31:35.76
BUT GOD IS FAITHFUL. HE
WILL NOT -- BUT WITH THE
00:31:35.76\00:31:40.93
TEMPTATION ALSO CAN MAKE THE
WAY OF ESCAPE THAT YOU WILL BE
00:31:40.93\00:31:44.93
ABLE TO BEAR. THE
BIBLE NEVER SAYS THAT YOU
00:31:44.93\00:31:48.74
ARE GOING TO LIVE A
LIFE WITHOUT TEMPTATION.
00:31:48.74\00:31:55.04
IT SAYS WHEN YOU ARE
TEMPTED. IT DOESN'T SAY IF.
00:31:55.04\00:31:58.11
IT SAYS WHEN YOU ARE TEMPTED.
IT NEVER SAYS "WHEN YOU SIN."
00:31:58.11\00:32:02.38
IT ONLY SAYS "IF YOU
SIN." TEMPTATION IS A GUARANTEE.
00:32:02.38\00:32:08.32
FRIENDS, EVERY IN THE MOST
DIFFICULT TIMES, VICTORY IS
00:32:08.32\00:32:11.79
POSSIBLE IN THE
STRENGTH OF CHRIST JESUS.
00:32:11.79\00:32:15.00
ENTHUSE WE IMMEDIATE IN
EPHESIANS, FINALLY BRETDS REN
00:32:15.00\00:32:19.17
BE STRONG IN THE LORD AND
IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT.
00:32:19.17\00:32:22.80
PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD
THAT HE MAY STAND AGAINST THE
00:32:22.80\00:32:26.94
WILES OF THE DEVIL. WE
DO NOT WRIFL AGAINST FLESH
00:32:26.94\00:32:31.95
AND BLOOD, BUT
AGAINST PRINCIPALITIES AGAINST
00:32:31.95\00:32:36.45
SPIRITUAL HOSTS OF WICKEDNESS.
TAKE UP THE ARMOR OF GOD THAT
00:32:36.45\00:32:40.82
YOU MAY WITH STAND
EVIL. SIMPLY PUT, I CAN DO ALL
00:32:40.82\00:32:50.33
THINGS THROUGH CITE   
CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME.
00:32:50.33\00:32:56.57
IT DOESN'T SAY I CAN DO
LOTS OF THINGS, I CAN DO SEVERAL
00:32:56.57\00:33:00.24
THINGS, I CAN SOME THINGS.
I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH
00:33:00.24\00:33:05.41
CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS
ME. PAGE 71EN CHRIST TOOK UPON
00:33:05.41\00:33:11.82
HIMSELF, DIVINITY AND
HUMAN TIM WERE COMBINED.
00:33:11.82\00:33:14.72
HE SHOWED THAT THE LAW SATAN
DECLARED COULD NOT BE KEPT.
00:33:14.72\00:33:22.83
I'M TEMPTED TO PREACH
ANOTHER CERTAINLY RIGHT NOW.
00:33:22.83\00:33:26.00
I'M NOTE GOING TO DO IT.
LY SAY IT'S ASTONISHING TO ME,
00:33:26.00\00:33:32.07
EVEN INSIDE THE SATANIC IDEALS
THAT GOD'S LAW CAN'T BE KEPT
00:33:32.07\00:33:36.71
IS BEING PREACHED WEEK TO WEEK.
00:33:36.71\00:33:45.39
FRIENDS,
SCRIPTURE SAYS OTHERWISE.
00:33:45.39\00:33:47.96
I'LL TAKE GOD'S WORD FOR
IT. HE SHOWED THAT THE LAW WHICH
00:33:47.96\00:33:52.53
SIN DECLARED COULD NOT
BE KEPT, COULD BE KEPT.
00:33:52.53\00:33:56.53
CHRIST TOOK HUMANITY STAND
HERE IN OUR WORLD TO SHOW THAT
00:33:56.53\00:34:00.70
SATAN HAD LIED. HE
TOOK HUMANITY ON HIMSELF TO
00:34:00.70\00:34:05.54
DEMONSTRATE THAT WITH DIVINITY
AND HUMANITY COMBINED, MAN
00:34:05.54\00:34:08.64
COULD KEEP THE LAW OF
JEHOVAH. SEPARATE HUMANITY FROM
00:34:08.64\00:34:14.35
DIVINITY. CAN YOU WORK YOUR ONLY
00:34:14.35\00:34:17.35
RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM NOW UNTIL
CHRIST COMES AND IT WILL BE
00:34:17.35\00:34:19.25
NOTHING BUT A
FAILURE. THIS IS NOT A WORK OF
00:34:19.25\00:34:22.59
RIGHTEOUSNESS, BUT IT IS
A RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH WORKS.
00:34:22.59\00:34:27.56
IT WAS THIS FIRM GRIP ON THE
HAND OF GOD THAT PROVIDED THE
00:34:27.56\00:34:32.97
POWER FOR OTHERS TO STAND
AGAINST THE DEVIL, EVEN WHEN
00:34:32.97\00:34:35.70
THEIR VERY LIVES WERE AT STAKE.
00:34:35.70\00:34:39.77
JOB TESTIFIED, THOUGH
HE SLAY ME YET WILL I.
00:34:39.77\00:34:44.91
THEN CHAPTER 6, ANSWERED THE
KING, OUR GOD WHO WE SERVE HE
00:34:44.91\00:34:53.86
WILL DELIVER US
FROM YOUR HAND, O KING.
00:34:53.86\00:34:57.43
BUT IF NOT, LET IT BE KNOWN
TO YOU, OH, KING, WE DO NOTE
00:34:57.43\00:35:03.00
SERVE YOUR GOT AND WE WILL
NOT WORE SHIM THE GOLD IMAGE YOU
00:35:03.00\00:35:06.77
HAVE SET UP. PAUL
GAVE HIS TESTIMONY TO
00:35:06.77\00:35:12.94
TIMOTHY AND 2
TIMOTHY, CHAPTER 4.
00:35:12.94\00:35:19.21
MY DEPARTURE IS AT HAND, I
HAVE FOUGHT THE GOOD FIGHT.
00:35:19.21\00:35:22.72
I HAVE FINISHED THE
RACE. I HAVE KEPT THE FATES.
00:35:22.72\00:35:29.22
FINALLY, LAID FOR ME
THE CROWN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
00:35:29.22\00:35:32.63
WILL GIVE MOO ME ON
THAT DAY, CAPITAL D "DAY."
00:35:32.63\00:35:41.04
THE DAY TO WHICH PAUL REFERRED
IN HIS CLOSING TESTIMONY WAS
00:35:41.04\00:35:44.87
THE SECOND COMING OF
JESUS. THIS GREAT HOPE OF GOD'S
00:35:44.87\00:35:50.58
PEOPLE IS THE CULMINATION
OF ALL BIBLE PROPHECIES AND THE
00:35:50.58\00:35:54.45
FOCUS OF THE LAST OF THE BIBLE.
00:35:54.45\00:35:57.35
HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT THT
IN THE PROPHECIES OF REVELATION
00:35:57.35\00:36:01.36
COMMANDMENT KEEPING, NOT
MERELY UNTIL DISCOMFORT, BUT,
00:36:01.36\00:36:06.43
QUOTE, EVEN UNTO DEATH, IS THE
CONSISTENT IDENTIFIER OF THOSE
00:36:06.43\00:36:11.53
WHO ARE JESUS' TRUE FOLLOWERS.
REVELATION CHAPTER 12.
00:36:11.53\00:36:17.64
VERSE 11 READS, AND THEY
OVERCAME HIM BY THE BLOOD OF
00:36:17.64\00:36:20.68
THE LAMB AND THEM DID NOT
LOVE THEIR LIVES TOO -- WHAT?
00:36:20.68\00:36:24.78
TO DEATH. IT GOES ON, VERSE 17.
00:36:24.78\00:36:28.82
HE WAS ENRAGED WTH TE WOMEN.
HE MADE WAR WITH THE REST OF
00:36:28.82\00:36:34.16
THE OFFSPRING WHO KEEP
THE COMMANDMENT OF GOD.
00:36:34.16\00:36:37.43
NOTICE IS TIE BETWEEN KEEPING
THE COMMANDMENTS EVEN UNTO
00:36:37.43\00:36:42.03
DEATH. TWO
CHAPTERS LATER, CHAPTER
00:36:42.03\00:36:46.30
14, HERE IS THE
PATIENCE OF THE SAINTS.
00:36:46.30\00:36:49.57
HERE ARE THOSE WHO KEEP
THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD IN THE
00:36:49.57\00:36:53.14
FACE OF JESUS. THEN I
HEARD A VOICE IN SAYING
00:36:53.14\00:36:57.21
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DIME IN
THE LORD THAT THEY MAY REST IN
00:36:57.21\00:37:01.88
THEIR LABORS AND
THEIR WORK FOLLOWS THEM.
00:37:01.88\00:37:03.62
RIGHT AFTER IT SAYS
KEEP THE COMMANDMENT.
00:37:03.62\00:37:05.99
IT SAYS BLESSED ARE THOSE
WHO KEEP THE FAITH TO THE VERY
00:37:05.99\00:37:10.29
END. REVERSALLATION, CHAPTER 22,
00:37:10.29\00:37:14.56
VERSES 14 AND 15.
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DO HIS
00:37:14.56\00:37:16.36
COMMANDMENTS THAT THEY MAY
HAVE THE RIGHT TO THE TREE OF
00:37:16.36\00:37:19.17
LIFE AND ENTER
THE GATES OF THE CITY.
00:37:19.17\00:37:27.54
TWO POINTS I'D LIKE TO
DRAW. NO ONE IN THE BOOK OF
00:37:27.54\00:37:30.51
REVELATION DOES IT SAY
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO KNOW THE
00:37:30.51\00:37:35.82
COMMANDMENTS. IT
SAYS BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO
00:37:35.82\00:37:38.52
DO THE
COMMANDMENTS. THOSE WHO KEEP THE
00:37:38.52\00:37:43.73
COMMANDMENTS. POINT
NUMBER OE, IT'S MORE
00:37:43.73\00:37:45.66
THAN JUST THEORY.
IT HAS TO BE PRACTICED.
00:37:45.66\00:37:48.50
POINT NUMBER TWO, IT DOESN'T
JUST SAY HERE ARE THOSE WHO
00:37:48.50\00:37:56.77
KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS.
WE RIGHTFULLY TALK ABOUT HOW
00:37:56.77\00:38:08.72
ONE PARTICULAR COMMANDMENT,
THAT FOURTH COMMANDMENT IS THE
00:38:08.72\00:38:13.12
GREAT TEST IN THE LAST
DAYS. AND THAT IS TRUE.
00:38:13.12\00:38:17.46
FRIENDS, WHAT WOULD YOU DO
IF EUROPE LYING, STEALING, CHAI
00:38:17.46\00:38:23.23
CHEATING AND ALL OTHER
THINGS. SEE WHAT I'M SAYING?
00:38:23.23\00:38:27.54
GOD WANTS TO DEMONSTRATE
HIS POWER IN HIS PEOPLE THAT
00:38:27.54\00:38:30.04
SATAN'S CLAIMS THAT YOU
CAN'T KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS ARE
00:38:30.04\00:38:34.78
ABSOLUTELY FALSE.
PLEASE NOTICE IN THIS PASSAGE
00:38:34.78\00:38:40.25
WE JUST READ THAT THE LIFE
PROMISED TO THOSE WHO KEEP THE
00:38:40.25\00:38:46.15
COMMANDMENTS IS ETERNAL LIFE.
THE POINT IS YOU MIGHT LOSE
00:38:46.15\00:38:52.23
YOUR LIFE HERE IF YOU
REMAIN FAITHFUL TO GOD.
00:38:52.23\00:39:00.17
BUT SO WHAT?
WOULDN'T YOU RATHER RISK
00:39:00.17\00:39:06.51
LOSING A FEW DAYS,
WEEKS, MONTHS OR YEARS HERE TO
00:39:06.51\00:39:12.28
GUARANTEE GAINING LITERALLY
COUNTLESS YEARS, DECADES,
00:39:12.28\00:39:17.02
CENTURIES AND MILLENNIUM THERE?
00:39:17.02\00:39:22.69
I DON'T KNOW WHERE EXCEPT INTO
OUR THINKING THAT THE HIGHEST
00:39:22.69\00:39:29.33
ALLEGIANCE IS
LIFE ON THIS EARTH.
00:39:29.33\00:39:31.40
FRIENDS, THE BIBLE IS
REPEATEDLY CONSISTENTLY
00:39:31.40\00:39:35.77
UBIQUITOUSLY CLEAR THE
LIFE WE SHOULD BE SEEKING IS THE
00:39:35.77\00:39:39.94
ETERNAL LIFE. EVEN
IF IT COSTS US TIME,
00:39:39.94\00:39:42.11
MONEY, RESOURCES OR EVEN OUR
EXISTENCE HERE, IT'S WORTH IT.
00:39:42.11\00:39:46.88
HEAVEN IS CHEAP
ENOUGH. MATTHEW CHAPTER 16.
00:39:46.88\00:39:51.52
FOR WHOEVER DESIRES TO
SAVE HIS LIFE WILL LOSE IT.
00:39:51.52\00:39:56.09
WHOEVER LOSES HIS
LIFE WILL FIND IT.
00:39:56.09\00:40:01.86
THE MAN GAINS THE WHOLE
WORLD AND LOSES HIS OWN SOUL.
00:40:01.86\00:40:05.53
WHAT WILL A MAN GIVE IN
EXCHANGE FOR HIS SOUL, FOR THE
00:40:05.53\00:40:09.57
SON OF MAN WILL COME IN THE
GLORY OF HIS FATHER WITH HIS
00:40:09.57\00:40:12.07
ANGELS AND THEN HE WILL
REWARD EACH ACCORDING HIS WORK.
00:40:12.07\00:40:18.71
AS SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS
WE REALIZE THE APEX OF THE LAST
00:40:18.71\00:40:21.85
DAYS WILL BE THE UNIVERSAL
ENFORCEMENT OF THE MARK OF THE
00:40:21.85\00:40:24.75
BEAST. A
DEMONSTRATION OF ALLEGIANCE
00:40:24.75\00:40:28.09
BUT THE KEEPING THE
SUNDAY AS THE SABBATH DAY.
00:40:28.09\00:40:33.29
SCRIPTURE TELLS US THERE WILL
BE CIVIL PUNISHMENT FOR THOSE
00:40:33.29\00:40:36.30
WHO REMAIN LOYAL TO
GOD BEGINNING WITH ECONOMIC
00:40:36.30\00:40:38.77
PENALTIES AND
ULTIMATELY MOVING TO A DEATH.
00:40:38.77\00:40:44.34
IN THAT FINAL TEST, IF SOMEONE
WERE TO CAFÉ TO ECONOMICS,
00:40:44.34\00:40:52.31
SOCIETAL OR EVEN
EXISTENTIAL THREAT.
00:40:52.31\00:40:57.89
THEIR STRATEGIC DECISION MAKING.
00:40:57.89\00:40:59.19
COULD WE EXTOL THEIR
WISDOM AND COMPROMISING IN THAT.
00:40:59.19\00:41:04.63
OF COURSE, NOT.
THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF THE
00:41:04.63\00:41:09.76
TEST. THIS DEMONSTRATES TRUE
00:41:09.76\00:41:13.57
FIDELITY. THINK ABOUT IT.
00:41:13.57\00:41:15.47
IN WHAT ESTEEM WOULD WE
HOLD SHADRACH, MESHACH AND ABEG
00:41:15.47\00:41:21.28
NEGATIVEOW IF THEY HELD
WHEN THE KING UNVEILED THE FIERY
00:41:21.28\00:41:25.61
FURNACE? AS SOON
AS THAT FIERY FURNACE
00:41:25.61\00:41:27.82
IS REVEALED, THEY
HAD TO TIE THEIR SHOES.
00:41:27.82\00:41:35.42
WHAT REGARD WORE WE HAVE FOR
DANIEL, HAD HE CEASED TO PRAY
00:41:35.42\00:41:39.43
FOR FEAR OF THE LIONS?
WHAT KID WOULD WANT TO SING
00:41:39.43\00:41:46.53
DEATH TO BE FOR DANIEL UNTIL
THE TIME OF THREATENING AND
00:41:46.53\00:41:50.67
THEN WE CAN'T YOUR FAITH.
00:41:50.67\00:41:55.44
NOBODY WANTS TO SING THAT SONG.
00:41:59.05\00:42:00.05
IT'S UNINSPIRING. FROM
AN EARTHLY PERSPECTIVE,
00:42:00.05\00:42:03.99
STRATEGIC PLANNING. IF
BUYS A LITTLE MORE TIME AND
00:42:03.99\00:42:09.19
IT MIGHT EXTEND YOUR --
YOU MIGHT EVEN GAIN A FEW MORE
00:42:09.19\00:42:13.23
YEARS, DECADES OF LIFE HERE.
WE MISSED THE PURPOSES THAT WE
00:42:13.23\00:42:23.51
SHOULDN'T BE
SATISFIED WITH HERE.
00:42:23.51\00:42:29.71
ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE, WITH
THE LORD, A DAY IS LIKE WHAT?
00:42:29.71\00:42:35.98
A THOUSAND YEARS. THE
LONGEST LIVED PERSON WHO
00:42:35.98\00:42:38.85
TASTED DEATH, METH USELA LIVED.
00:42:38.85\00:42:45.83
HE DIDN'T EVEN
MAKE IT TO ONE FULL DAY.
00:42:45.83\00:42:52.63
WE LOOK AT 969 AND
GO, I MEAN THIS IS 2018.
00:42:52.63\00:42:58.74
IF THEY WERE BORN ALMOST A
THOUSAND YEARS, THEY WOULD BE
00:42:58.74\00:43:01.98
BORN IN 1018. WE LOOK
AT THAT AS SAYING IT'S
00:43:01.98\00:43:07.08
ALMOST MINDS BOGGLING LONG LIFE.
00:43:07.08\00:43:10.22
THE ANGELS LOOK UP AND
SAY, HE WAS JUST A BABY.
00:43:10.22\00:43:17.93
SATAN WANTS TO FOCUS HERE
WHEN GOD HAS PUT ETERNITY IN OUR
00:43:17.93\00:43:23.90
HEARTS ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE.
THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS
00:43:23.90\00:43:28.27
SIMPLE. FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, DON'T
00:43:28.27\00:43:31.27
STEAL. DON'T STEAL CANDY.
00:43:31.27\00:43:33.98
DON'T STEAL A
PENCIL. DON'T STEAL A WALLET.
00:43:33.98\00:43:38.08
DON'T STEAL A
CAR. DON'T STEAL MONEY.
00:43:38.08\00:43:41.92
DON'T STEAL MEDICINE.
DON'T BE SWAYED BY SELFISH
00:43:41.92\00:43:46.19
DESIRES TO TAKE
WHAT ISN'T YOURS.
00:43:46.19\00:43:48.62
DON'T BE BULLIED BY EXTERNAL
PRESSURE TO TAKE WHAT YOU NEED
00:43:48.62\00:43:52.93
EVEN IF IT MIGHT
REQUIRE THE LOSS OF LIFE.
00:43:52.93\00:43:56.23
DON'T STEAL. IT'S
EASY TO SAY, JUST DON'T.
00:43:56.23\00:44:09.01
DID YOU KNOW THAT THE LORD
HELPS US, BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE
00:44:09.01\00:44:12.95
THIS NATURAL SELF PROPENSITY
WITHIN US TO BREAK GOD'S LAW,
00:44:12.95\00:44:17.89
ESPECIALLY WHEN TIMES GET TOUGH?
00:44:17.89\00:44:20.39
AND THAT HE HAS IN HIS
INFINITE WISDOM GIVEN US THE
00:44:20.39\00:44:29.30
BEAUTIFUL SPIRITUAL
PRACTICE TO BUILD WITH HIM, THAT
00:44:29.30\00:44:33.30
CHARACTER OF BENEFICENCE
THAT WOULD FIT INTO HEAVEN.
00:44:33.30\00:44:41.21
THAT POWERFUL SAFEGUARD
AGAINST TAKING WHAT ISN'T
00:44:41.21\00:44:45.71
YOURS, THE CONSISTENT PRACTICE
OF GIVING WHAT IS YOURS.
00:44:45.71\00:44:51.02
WE JUST MENTIONED IT EARLIER.
PERHAPS THE MOST RAMP ANT AND
00:44:51.02\00:44:55.19
BRAZEN VIOLATION EVER THE
EIGHTH COMMANDMENT AMONG GOD'S
00:44:55.19\00:44:58.56
PEOPLE ISN'T CHEATING THE
CIVIL GOVERNMENT OR STEALING
00:44:58.56\00:45:01.33
FROM THOSE AROUND
US. IT IS ROBBERY OF GOD.
00:45:01.33\00:45:08.74
MALACHI CHAPTER 3, VERSE 8.
WILL A MAN ROBBED GOD, YET YOU
00:45:08.74\00:45:13.24
HAVE ROBBED ME. IN
WHAT WAY HAVE WE ROBBED
00:45:13.24\00:45:17.08
YOU? YOU KNOW THE ANSWER.
00:45:17.08\00:45:19.08
IN TITHES AND OFFERINGS.
YOU ARE CURSED WITH THE CURSE.
00:45:19.08\00:45:23.05
YOU HAVE ROBBED ME,
EVEN THIS WHOLE NATION.
00:45:23.05\00:45:25.22
BRING ALL THE TITHES INTO THE
STORE HOUSE THAT THERE MAY BE
00:45:25.22\00:45:29.36
FOOD IN MY HOUSE, IF I WILL
NOT OPEN FOR YOU THE WINDOWS
00:45:29.36\00:45:31.83
OF HEAVEN AND POUR OUT FOR YOU
SUCH BLESSINGS THAT THERE WILL
00:45:31.83\00:45:35.40
NOT BE ROOM
ENOUGH TO RECEIVE IT.
00:45:35.40\00:45:39.00
JESUS SPOKE
ABOUT THE HEAVEN FIRST.
00:45:39.00\00:45:45.61
MATTHEW CHAPTER 6.
THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT.
00:45:45.61\00:45:48.14
THEREFORE I SAY DO NOT WORRY
ABOUT YOUR LIFE, FOR YOU EAT,
00:45:48.14\00:45:52.78
FOR WHAT YOU WILL DRINK, NOR
ABOUT YOUR BODY, WHAT YOU WILL
00:45:52.78\00:45:56.72
PUT ON. IS NOT
LIFE MORE THAN FOOD AND
00:45:56.72\00:45:59.72
THE BODY MORE THAN CLOTHING.
LOOK AT THE BIRDS EVER THE
00:45:59.72\00:46:03.19
AIR. THEY DO NOT
GATHER INTO BARNS,
00:46:03.19\00:46:08.10
YET THEIR HEMPLY
FATHER FEEDS THEM.
00:46:08.10\00:46:10.50
ARE YOU NOT OF MORE VALUE.
WHICH OF YOU WOULD ADD MORE
00:46:10.50\00:46:15.90
CUBIT TO YOUR STATURE.
CONSIDER THE LILIES OF THE
00:46:15.90\00:46:21.01
FIELD. THEY
NEITHER TOIL NOR SPIN.
00:46:21.01\00:46:24.55
SOLOMON IN ALL HIS GLORY
WAS NOT ARAISED LIKE THESE.
00:46:24.55\00:46:28.72
IF GOD SO CLOSED THE FIELD
WHICH IS TOMORROW THROWN INTO
00:46:28.72\00:46:33.32
THE OVEN, WILL HE
NOT MUCH MORE CLOTHE YOU?
00:46:33.32\00:46:38.89
OH, YOU EVER LITTLE
FAITH. DO NOT WORRY SAYING WHAT
00:46:38.89\00:46:43.83
SHALL WE EAT WHAT SHOULD WE
DRINK OR WHAT SHALL WE WEAR?
00:46:43.83\00:46:48.27
THESE ARE THE
THINGS THE GENTILES DO.
00:46:48.27\00:46:50.27
FOR YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER KNOWS
YOU NEED ALL OF THESE THINGS.
00:46:50.27\00:46:55.41
BUT SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM
OF GOD AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND
00:46:55.41\00:47:00.38
ALL THESE THINGS
SHALL BE ADDED TO YOU.
00:47:00.38\00:47:06.82
THIS PRINCIPLE OF GIVING
TO GOD BEFORE EVEN OUR OWN
00:47:06.82\00:47:12.89
PHYSICAL NEEDS ARE MET.
IS ILLUSTRATED BY TWO STORIES
00:47:12.89\00:47:16.70
OF WIDOWS. ONE IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT AND
00:47:16.70\00:47:19.43
ONE IN THE NEW. THIS
IS WHAT JESUS IS SAYING.
00:47:19.43\00:47:22.27
HE WAS TALKING ABOUT
FOOD, TALKING ABOUT DRINK.
00:47:22.27\00:47:25.07
HE WASN'T TALKING ABOUT THE
DESIRES EVER THE THINGS THAT
00:47:25.07\00:47:28.04
YOU WANT OR YOU CAN'T AFFORD.
HE IS TALKING ABOUT THE THINGS
00:47:28.04\00:47:31.45
THAT MAKE LIFE GO AT
ALL. HE SAYS IF YOU PLACE THE
00:47:31.45\00:47:37.05
KINGDOM OF HELP AND THE
PURSUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS ABOVE
00:47:37.05\00:47:40.59
EVEN THOSE CONSIDERATIONS,
YOU WILL HAVE ALL THAT YOU NEED
00:47:40.59\00:47:43.12
AND LEARN TO BE
CONTENT WITH WHAT IS PROVIDED.
00:47:43.12\00:47:49.23
WE SEEP, GO TO 1
KINGS CHAPTER 17.
00:47:49.23\00:47:53.64
FIRST STORY IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:47:53.64\00:47:57.14
THE WIDOW DOWN TO HER
LITERALLY LAST PENNY, STARTING
00:47:57.14\00:48:07.08
WITH VERSE 8, THE WORD OF
THE LORD CAME SAYING ARISE AND
00:48:07.08\00:48:13.36
DWELL THERE. HE
COMMAND THE WIDOW TO
00:48:13.36\00:48:15.76
PROVIDE FOR YOU. WHEN
HE CAME TO THE GATE OF
00:48:15.76\00:48:20.60
THE CITY A WIDOW WAS
THERE GATHERING STICKS.
00:48:20.60\00:48:23.57
HE SAID PLEASE BRING ME WATER
IN A CUP THAT I MIGHT DRINK.
00:48:23.57\00:48:26.80
HE CALLED HER AND SAID
BRING ME A MORE CELL OF BREAD IN
00:48:26.80\00:48:30.94
YOUR HAND. AS THE
LORD YOUR GOD LIVES, I
00:48:30.94\00:48:33.71
DO NOT HAVE BREAD, ONLY A
HANDFUL OF FLOUR AND SOME OIL
00:48:33.71\00:48:38.21
IN A JAR. I'M
GATHERING STICKS TO
00:48:38.21\00:48:40.58
PREPARE FOR MILEY CYRUS AND MY
SON THAT WEAPON MAY EAT IT AND
00:48:40.58\00:48:44.75
DIE. SHE LITERALLY HAD ONLY A
00:48:44.75\00:48:48.99
LITTLE BIT OF FOOD
LEFT. VERSE CHILDREN.
00:48:48.99\00:48:58.97
ELIJAHIA SAID, DO NOT FEAR.
MAKE ME A SMALL CAKE FROM IT
00:48:58.97\00:49:05.44
FIRST. AND BRING IT TO ME AND
00:49:05.44\00:49:08.48
AFTERWARD MAKE SOME
FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR SON.
00:49:08.48\00:49:15.75
GOD SAID, TRY ME AND
SEE IF I WON'T PROVIDE.
00:49:15.75\00:49:19.52
PUT ALL OF THIS
FAITH TALK INTO PRACTICE.
00:49:19.52\00:49:23.66
THE PROPHET OF GOD COMES
ALONG AND SAYS LET'S TEST THE
00:49:23.66\00:49:27.23
SINCERITY OF YOUR
FAITH. BRING ME A CAKE FIRST.
00:49:27.23\00:49:33.70
THEN LET'S SEE WHAT
HAPPENS FOR YOURSELF.
00:49:33.70\00:49:37.47
WE KNOW HOW THIS
ENDS. THE LADY LIVED.
00:49:37.47\00:49:41.31
AND SO DID HER KID
GO TO THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:49:41.31\00:49:46.15
MARK. CHAPTER 12.
00:49:46.15\00:49:57.39
VERSE 41. NOW JEEZ
SAT OPPOSITE EVER THE
00:49:57.39\00:50:01.60
TREASURY AND SAW HOW
PEOPLE NUT THE TREASURY.
00:50:01.60\00:50:06.50
THEN ONE POOR WIDOW CAME
AND THROUGH INTO TWO MITES.
00:50:06.50\00:50:10.91
WE CALLED THE DISCIPLES AND
SAID TO HIM ASSUREDLY I SAY TO
00:50:10.91\00:50:15.71
YOU THIS WIDOW HAS PUT MOTHER
FOR THEY PUT IN OUT OF THEIR
00:50:15.71\00:50:21.42
ABUNDANCE, BUT SHE OUT OF
HER POVERTY PUT IN ALL THAT SHE
00:50:21.42\00:50:25.32
HAD, HER WHOLE LIKELIHOOD.
THOSE ARE HER LAST BITS OF
00:50:25.32\00:50:32.73
LIKELIHOOD AND SHE GAVE
IT AS THE LORD EXPECTED.
00:50:32.73\00:50:41.37
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.
IF YOU DON'T NOTICE IT IN THE
00:50:41.37\00:50:45.81
STORY. I'LL MAKE IT PLAIN.
00:50:45.81\00:50:49.81
VERSE 44, ALL OF THOSE
PUT OUT OF THEIR ABUNDANCE.
00:50:49.81\00:50:52.41
THEY GAVE A LOT. I
WOULD SAY THEY WERE
00:50:52.41\00:50:55.98
GENEROUS. BUT GOD
IS NOT LOOKING FOR
00:50:55.98\00:50:58.99
GENEROSITY. HE IS
LOOKING FOR SACRIFICE.
00:50:58.99\00:51:07.40
THE TEST DOESN'T
COME WHEN YOU CAN GIVE.
00:51:07.40\00:51:11.20
THE TEST COMES WHEN
IT SEEMS YOU CAN'T GIVE.
00:51:11.20\00:51:19.11
BOTH GROUPS IN THE STORY GAVE.
THE TEST EXPOSED THE MOTIVE.
00:51:19.11\00:51:29.85
LISTEN TO THIS. MAY 16, 1893.
00:51:29.85\00:51:34.12
WE SHOULD NEVER FORGET THAT
WE ARE PLAISTLESSED ON TRIAL IN
00:51:34.12\00:51:37.73
THIS WORLD TO DETERMINE OUR
FITNESS FOR THE FUTURE LIFE.
00:51:37.73\00:51:42.23
MEN CAN ENTER HEAVEN WHOSE
CHARACTERS ARE DEFILED BY THE
00:51:42.23\00:51:47.34
FOUL BLOCK OF SELF ORBSNESS.
THEREFORE GOD TESTS US HERE,
00:51:47.34\00:51:52.84
BY COMMITTING TO US TEMPORAL
POSSESSIONS THAT WE SHOW
00:51:52.84\00:51:59.78
WHETHER WE CAN BE
ENTRUSTED WITH ETERNAL RICHES.
00:51:59.78\00:52:02.35
HE CONTINUES.
SHOULD ALL WHO CLAIM TO BE
00:52:02.35\00:52:05.49
SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF
GOD CONTENTIOUSLY MEET THEIR
00:52:05.49\00:52:08.59
OBLIGATIONS TO GOD AND
THEIR FELLOW MEN AND TITHE AND
00:52:08.59\00:52:13.23
OFFERINGS AND ABUNDANCE FLOWS
INTO THE TREASURY TO SUSTAIN
00:52:13.23\00:52:17.73
THE WORK OF GOD. AS
THEY SHOULD IMPART --
00:52:17.73\00:52:20.37
NOTICE THIS CAREFULLY. AS
THEY SHOULD IMPART THE LORD
00:52:20.37\00:52:24.14
WOULD OPEN WAYS BY WAY
THEY COULD CONTINUALLY INSTILL
00:52:24.14\00:52:29.84
BECAUSE THEY WERE
CONTINUALLY RECEIVING.
00:52:29.84\00:52:34.22
THE CIRCUIT OF BENEFICENCE?
WHEN THE LORD GIVES, HE WANTS
00:52:34.22\00:52:40.99
TO SEE IF WE WILL
INTURN GIVE AGAIN.
00:52:40.99\00:52:47.30
OR WILL WE OUT OF DESIRE
FOR MORE OR LACK OF TRUST THAT
00:52:47.30\00:52:51.73
MORE MIGHT BE COMING LATER
MORE THAN WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN.
00:52:51.73\00:52:57.44
WILL WE EXERCISE SAINT'S
SELFISHNESS OR BY GOD'S GRACE
00:52:57.44\00:53:09.45
CHRIST
SELFLESSNESS. TO CONTINUE.
00:53:09.45\00:53:15.46
AGAIN, THE LORD WILL OPEN WAYS
WHEREBY THEY WILL CONTINUE TO
00:53:15.46\00:53:19.73
C.E.O. BECAUSE THEY
WILL CONTINUE TO RECEIVE.
00:53:19.73\00:53:21.80
THERE WOULD THEN BE NO
OCCASION TO MAKE APPEALS TO
00:53:21.80\00:53:25.13
SUSTAINABLE THE CAUSE. I
DON'T KNOW HOW HEAVY THAT
00:53:25.13\00:53:27.24
HITS YOU. WOULDN'T
IT BE FANTASTIC TO GO
00:53:27.24\00:53:30.07
TO CHURCH AND YOU DON'T
HAVE TO HAVE AN OFFERING APPEAL?
00:53:30.07\00:53:35.91
MAKE IT GOOD AND STERN.
MAKE A AN EMOTIONAL -- WHAT IF
00:53:35.91\00:53:40.45
THE APPEAL WERE A
FLOP. WOULD YOU GIVE, TOO?
00:53:40.45\00:53:44.02
WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT, NOW IT'S
TIME TO TAKE UP THE OFFERING.
00:53:44.02\00:53:47.26
THAT'S IT. YOU
DON'T HAVE TO BE TALKED
00:53:47.26\00:53:50.56
INTO IT. YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE
00:53:50.56\00:53:54.20
EMOTIONALLY PULLED
OR HAVE STIRRING MUSIC.
00:53:54.20\00:53:55.30
YOU GIVE BECAUSE
IT'S WHAT YOU DO.
00:53:55.30\00:54:00.10
IT'S THE PRINCIPLE OF
GIVING TO THE LORD HIS OWN WERE
00:54:00.10\00:54:03.57
CARRIED OUT REGULARLY
AND SYSTEMICALLY, IT WOULD BE
00:54:03.57\00:54:08.68
ACKNOWLEDGED BY GOD.
IF YOU HAVE EVER HEARD ME
00:54:08.68\00:54:13.18
PREACH YOU HEARD THE
EXPLANATION THAT IT INVOLVES
00:54:13.18\00:54:16.58
MORE THAN GETTING UP
INTO HEAVEN TM INCLUDES.
00:54:16.58\00:54:22.22
UP FOR THE SOCIETY OF
HEAVEN. THE REASON WE KEEP THE
00:54:22.22\00:54:26.39
COMMANDMENTS ISN'T TO
EARN INTO GOD'S KINGDOM BUT TO
00:54:26.39\00:54:29.40
DEVELOP A CHARACTER THAT
WILL BE HAPPY ONCE WE GET THERE.
00:54:29.40\00:54:33.74
THE, 272, THE SPIRIT OF
IS THE SPIRIT OF HEAVEN.
00:54:33.74\00:54:40.48
CHRIST SELF-SACRIFICING LOVE
REVEALED ON THE CROSS THAT MAN
00:54:40.48\00:54:44.21
GAVE ALL THAT HE HAD
AND THEN GAVE HIMSELF.
00:54:44.21\00:54:48.08
THE CROSS.
FAMILIES THE BEN   BENJAMIN
00:54:48.08\00:54:54.99
NETANYAHU HE LENS.
THIS CARRIED OUT IN ACTUAL
00:54:54.99\00:55:00.50
BENEVOLENCE AND GOOD
WORK IS THE TRUE FRUIT OF THE
00:55:00.50\00:55:02.90
CHRISTIAN LIFE. THE
PRINCIPLE IS TO GIVE GIFTS
00:55:02.90\00:55:06.17
AND THUSLY EXPECT
TO SECURE HAPPINESS.
00:55:06.17\00:55:10.01
BUT CARRIED OUT IN ALL IT'S
BEARINGS, THE FRUIT IS MISERY
00:55:10.01\00:55:14.14
AND DEATH. I LOVE THIS ONE.
00:55:14.14\00:55:16.14
IN HEAVEN LIVE PLACES, IN
HEAVEN, NONE WILL THINK OF
00:55:16.14\00:55:22.78
SELF, NOR SEEK
THEIR OWN PLEASURE.
00:55:22.78\00:55:26.25
DOES THAT MEAN TA
HEAVEN WILL BE UNHAPPY?
00:55:26.25\00:55:30.66
NO. THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF
00:55:30.66\00:55:33.13
PLEASURES IN HEAVEN.
IT'S JUST NOT VITO FINDS THEM
00:55:33.13\00:55:36.13
AND SEEK THEM FOR ME
AND FIGHT FOR MY OWN.
00:55:36.13\00:55:41.50
NO. CONTINUE FROM PURE GENUINE
00:55:41.50\00:55:47.78
LOVE WILL SEEK THE HAPPINESS
EVER THE HEAVENLY BEINGS
00:55:47.78\00:55:50.45
AROUND THEM. SHE
ENDS WITH THIS RHETORICAL
00:55:50.45\00:55:54.32
STATEMENT. WE
WISH TO ENJOY HEAVENLY
00:55:54.32\00:55:56.55
SOCIETY IN THE EARTH MADE
NEW, WE MUST BE GOVERNED BY
00:55:56.55\00:56:01.89
HEAVENLY PRINCIPLES HERE.
TAKING US TO HEAVEN IS NOTHING
00:56:01.89\00:56:08.03
FOR JESUS. IT'S
MAKING IT FIT FOR HEAVEN
00:56:08.03\00:56:12.70
THAT'S THE PURPOSE.
TO LOOK AT THOSE GREAT
00:56:12.70\00:56:15.14
PRINCIPLES, THE GREAT LAW
OF LOVE AND LIBERTY AND SAME IS
00:56:15.14\00:56:19.97
THIS SOMETHING IS I EVEN WANT.
AND IF IT IS, LORD, HOW CAN I
00:56:19.97\00:56:25.88
START HEMP RIGHT HERE?
START HEAVEN RIGHT HERE IT
00:56:25.88\00:56:30.62
YOUR DESIRE FOR
HEAVEN TO START EVEN NOW?
00:56:30.62\00:56:33.52
HOW MANY HERE TODAY WOULD
BE WILLING TO COVENANT BY GOD'S
00:56:33.52\00:56:39.66
STRENGTH TO NOT STEAL
WHEN YOU WANT SOMETHING?
00:56:39.66\00:56:43.83
AMEN? HOW MANY
WANT TO COVENANT TO
00:56:43.83\00:56:47.50
SAY I DON'T STEAL
EVEN IF I NEED SOMETHING?
00:56:47.50\00:56:50.94
HOW MANY HERE WANT TO ACTIVELY
BUILD UP OUR DEFENSES AGAINST
00:56:50.94\00:56:55.01
THE EVIL OF SELFISHNESS BY
PLEDGING TO RETURN TO GOD A
00:56:55.01\00:56:59.81
FAITHFUL TITHE AND
SACRIFICIAL OFFERING?
00:56:59.81\00:57:02.55
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU,
BUT I WANT IMMUNITY FROM THE
00:57:02.55\00:57:06.59
TEMPTATION EVER THE WORLD
AND THE PREPARATION FOR THE NEXT
00:57:06.59\00:57:09.36
WORLD. WE CAN START HERE TODAY.
00:57:09.36\00:57:11.49
HEAVENLY FATHER, WE THANK YOU
SO MCH FOR GIVING US NOT ONLY
00:57:11.49\00:57:16.06
THE OVER THE PRINCIPLES OF
HEAVEN BUT SHOWING US IN THE
00:57:16.06\00:57:18.67
LIFE OF CHRIST AND WORD OF
GOD THE PRACTICE AND APPLICATION
00:57:18.67\00:57:21.37
EVER THOSE PRINCIPLES EVEN MORE.
00:57:21.37\00:57:24.14
LORD, WE KNOW
THERE IS A TEST COMING.
00:57:24.14\00:57:26.04
IT WILL BE GREAT BUT WE
WANT TO BE TESTED IN THE SMALL
00:57:26.04\00:57:29.11
THINGS TO PREPARE FOR THE BIG
THINGS AND SOME DAY WHEN JESUS
00:57:29.11\00:57:34.08
COMES, NOT ONLY WILL WE
GO TO HEAVEN, BUT BE READY.
00:57:34.08\00:57:37.32
