00:00:00.43\00:00:04.90
>> AND WE ARE BACK.
HOPE YOU HAD A -- A SPIRITUAL
00:00:12.07\00:00:17.68
GOOD TIME AS WE DD DURING
THAT FIRST HOUR, TALKING ABOUT
00:00:17.68\00:00:21.98
OVERCOMING, SOMETHING THAT WE
ALL WILL NEED TO ACCOMPLISH IN
00:00:21.98\00:00:24.69
YOUR LIVES THROUGH THE POWER,
THE GRACE, THE MERCY OF JESUS
00:00:24.69\00:00:29.22
CHRIST BEFORE WE
SEE HIM FACE-TO-FACE.
00:00:29.22\00:00:31.89
NAME THE COMPANY OF PASTOR JOHN
LOMACANG, SISTER SHELLEY QUINN,
00:00:31.89\00:00:35.93
PASTOR KENNY SHELTON, AND
WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE
00:00:35.93\00:00:40.24
POWER TO OVERCOM. WE
HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH
00:00:40.24\00:00:43.84
OVERCOMING 101. OR
MAYBE THIS IS GRADUATE
00:00:43.84\00:00:47.24
SCHOOL. I'M NOT SURE.
00:00:47.24\00:00:49.58
[ LAUGHTER ] >> BUT
THE LORD WANTS US TO
00:00:49.58\00:00:51.61
OVERCOME. HE HAS
PROVIDED POWER FOR US TO
00:00:51.61\00:00:54.55
OVERCOME, AND WE WANT
TO MOVE IN THOSE THINGS.
00:00:54.55\00:00:57.09
I WANT TO DO A QUICK READING
HERE AS WE BEGIN OUR SECOND
00:00:57.09\00:01:01.42
HALF. THIS IS FROM THE SPIRIT OF
00:01:01.42\00:01:05.79
PROPHECY WRITTEN BY ELLEN WHITE.
SHE SAYS MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO
00:01:05.79\00:01:11.90
KEEP OPEN THE COMMUNICATION
BETWEEN JESUS AND YOUR SOUL.
00:01:11.90\00:01:18.07
ELLEN WHITE SAYS, SAY, LORD,
TAKE ME THIS DAY, I SURRENDER
00:01:18.07\00:01:22.78
MYSELF TO THE
MOVINGS OF YOUR HOLY SPIRIT.
00:01:22.78\00:01:25.28
>> AMEN. >> THAT
OUGHT TO BE THE FIRST
00:01:25.28\00:01:29.35
THING YOU DO TO HELP GAIN
SUCCESS IN YOUR WALK WITH CHRIST
00:01:29.35\00:01:35.49
THAT DAY. WE
SHOULD PRAY IN THE FAMILY
00:01:35.49\00:01:40.13
CIRCLE, BUT YOUR POWER WILL
COME FROM ONE ON ONE WITH JESUS
00:01:40.13\00:01:45.10
CHRIST, FOR THIS
IS THE LIFE OF A SOUL.
00:01:45.10\00:01:48.67
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE SOUL
TO FLOURISH, WHILE PRAYER IS
00:01:48.67\00:01:53.48
NEGLECTED. SO IF
YOU ARE NOT PRAYING, YOU
00:01:53.48\00:01:57.28
CANNOT PLEASE HIM.
FAMILY OR PUBLIC PRAYER ALONE IS
00:01:57.28\00:02:01.68
NOT SUFFICIENT. IN
SOLITUDE LET THE SOUL BE LAID
00:02:01.68\00:02:12.16
OPEN. SECRET
PRAYER IS TO BE HEARD
00:02:12.16\00:02:15.33
ONLY BY THE EAR OF GOD. NO
CURIOUS EAR IS TO RECEIVE THE
00:02:15.33\00:02:23.24
BURDEN OF SUCH PETITIONS.
IN SECRET PRAYER THE SOUL IS
00:02:23.24\00:02:27.34
FREE FROM SURROUNDING
INFLUENCES, FREE FROM
00:02:27.34\00:02:30.71
EXCITEMENT, BY CALM SIMPLE
FAITH, THE SOUL HOLDS COMMUNION
00:02:30.71\00:02:35.08
WITH GOD, AND GATHERS TO
ITSELF RAYS OF DIVINE LIGHT TO
00:02:35.08\00:02:40.29
STRENGTHEN AND SUSTAIN IT
IN THE CONFLICT FROM SATAN.
00:02:40.29\00:02:44.86
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> AMEN.
00:02:44.86\00:02:46.49
>> THE KEEPING OF OUR EYES ON
CHRIST IS SO VITALLY IMPORTANT.
00:02:46.49\00:02:55.67
I ENDED THE FIRST HOUR, SO
I DON'T WANT TO START OUT THE
00:02:55.67\00:02:59.54
SECOND HOUR. KENNY JUMP BACK IN.
00:02:59.54\00:03:01.94
>> THE THING THAT WAS ON MY
MIND THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHEN
00:03:01.94\00:03:08.68
TEMPTATION COMES,
THEY ARE DEFEATED.
00:03:08.68\00:03:11.92
BUT, YOU KNOW, IF WE READ THE
BIBLE, YOU'LL FIND MANY TIMES
00:03:11.92\00:03:16.49
THAT, YOU KNOW, AS -- AS
MAN MOVED OUT, THERE WERE SOME
00:03:16.49\00:03:21.13
DEFEATS FOR WHATEVER REASON.
AND FOR EXAMPLES FOR US TO LEARN
00:03:21.13\00:03:25.83
FROM. I'M GOING
TO READ SOMETHING I
00:03:25.83\00:03:27.54
THOUGHT WAS VERY INTERESTING.
THE REASON WHY SO MANY ARE LEFT
00:03:27.54\00:03:32.41
TO THEMSELVES IN THE PLACE OF
TEMPTATIONS IS THAT -- AND THIS
00:03:32.41\00:03:35.88
WILL MAKE SENSE TO US -- THAT
THEY DO NOT SET ALWAYS THE LORD
00:03:35.88\00:03:40.62
BEFORE THEM. >> UH-HUH.
00:03:40.62\00:03:42.25
>> IN TEMPTATION, AND WHEN THE
DEVIL BEGINS TO GET THE POTS AND
00:03:42.25\00:03:46.96
PANS OUT AND WHACK US ON
THE HEAD JUST A LITTLE BIT, YOU
00:03:46.96\00:03:49.49
THINK ABOUT IT, WE HAVE
NOT SET THE LORD BEFORE US, THE
00:03:49.49\00:03:55.26
IMPORTANCE OF CHRIST
IN US, THE HOPE OF GLORY.
00:03:55.26\00:03:58.00
I USED TO PRAY YEARS AGO -- I
WAS JUST -- I WAS CAPTIVATED BY
00:03:58.00\00:04:02.87
THE BRAINS OF SALOMON,
WHO HAD ALL OF THESE BRAINS.
00:04:02.87\00:04:06.44
I THOUGHT I DON'T HAVE
ANY [ TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES ]
00:04:06.44\00:07:39.65
>> DWELLING OF CHRIST IN
THE HEART THROUGH FAITH IN HIS
00:07:39.65\00:07:44.69
RIGHTEOUSNESS, NOT OURS, UNLESS
-WE BECOME VIRTUALLY CONNECTED
WITH GOD, WE CAN NEVER RESIST
00:07:44.69\00:07:53.34
SELF LOVE, SELF INDULGENCE,
AND TEMPTATION THROUGH SIN.
00:07:53.34\00:07:58.97
THIS IS WHAT WE NEED. GOD IN US.
00:07:58.97\00:08:01.41
A VITAL CONNECTION AS DIVINE AND
THE BRANCH HAVE CHRIST IN US,
00:08:01.41\00:08:08.52
WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO RESIST
THE VICTORY, AND NEVER BECOME AN
00:08:08.52\00:08:15.52
OVERCOMER. AND IN
THE BEGINNING IT TALKS
00:08:15.52\00:08:18.56
ABOUT TO HIM THAT
OVERCOMETH. >> YES, SIR.
00:08:18.56\00:08:25.13
I'M THINKING THERE MUST BE
-pSOMETHING TO THIS, BECAUSE
THERE IS GAINING A VICTORY.
00:08:25.13\00:08:36.21
BECAUSE OF HIS GRACE, I CAN SEE
MYSELF AS A CONQUERER, BECAUSE
00:08:36.21\00:08:40.45
OF WHAT WE HAD DONE
BEFORE ME. >> PRAISE THE LORD.
00:08:40.45\00:08:43.62
>> AND I WAS GOING TO SAY WHEN
YOU SAID THAT IT HAS TO BE THE
00:08:43.62\00:08:48.22
IN-DWELLING OF CHRIST, IN
EPHESIANS 3:16, PAUL IS PRAYING
00:08:48.22\00:08:54.36
FOR THEM. AND HE IS
PRAYING THAT THE HOLY
00:08:54.36\00:08:56.87
SPIRIT -- HE SAYS THAT
THEY -- GOD WOULD GRANT THEM
00:08:56.87\00:09:01.37
ACCORDING TO THE RICHES OF HIS
GLORY TO BE STRENGTHENED WITH
00:09:01.37\00:09:06.64
MIGHT. AND THAT'S
DYNAMITE, THE POWER
00:09:06.64\00:09:12.68
OF GOD. IN A MAN,
SO THAT CHRIST MAY
00:09:12.68\00:09:15.62
DWELL IN THEIR
HEARTS THROUGH FAITH.
00:09:15.62\00:09:17.72
THE ONLY WAY -- ONCE AGAIN, I
JUST KEEP -- YOU KNOW, FOR US TO
00:09:17.72\00:09:21.42
BE OVERCOMERS, IT IS SO
IMPORTANT FOR US TO RECOGNIZE
00:09:21.42\00:09:26.09
THE ROLE OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT -- >> AMEN.
00:09:26.09\00:09:29.06
>> -- BECAUSE THIS IS HOW
CHRIST DWELLS IN OUR HEART.
00:09:29.06\00:09:32.17
AND YOU MENTIONED ON THE FIRST
HOUR HOW WE HAVE THIS STRUGGLE
00:09:32.17\00:09:37.21
AGAINST SELF. WE
ARE ALSO IN A STRUGGLE
00:09:37.21\00:09:40.14
AGAINST THE DEVIL, AND JAMES
4:7-8, JAMES SAYS THEREFORE
00:09:40.14\00:09:47.52
SUBMIT TO GOD THAT IS
-- THAT IS THE IDEA OF
00:09:47.52\00:09:52.62
YIELDING,
CONSENTING, SURRENDERING.
00:09:52.62\00:09:59.13
SUBMIT TO GOD, RESIST THE
DEVIL, AND HE WILL FLEE, BUT
00:09:59.13\00:10:03.37
DRAW NEAR TO GOD, SO
THAT HE MAY DRAW NEAR TO YOU.
00:10:03.37\00:10:07.27
SO WE CAN NEVER RESIST THE DEVIL
UNLESS WE ARE DRAWN NEAR TO GOD.
00:10:07.27\00:10:11.64
>> UH-HUH. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:10:11.64\00:10:13.27
>> WE HAVE TO DRAW NEAR.
AND I WANT TO READ SOMETHING
00:10:13.27\00:10:17.51
FROM 1 PETER.
BECAUSE I JUST KNOW, AND WANT
00:10:17.51\00:10:20.82
YOU TO KNOW, DON'T THINK THAT
ANY OF US SITTING HERE, AREN'T
00:10:20.82\00:10:24.25
STILL ON A DAILY
BASIS OVERCOMING.
00:10:24.25\00:10:27.92
>> AMEN. >> AND
DON'T THINK THAT ANY OF
00:10:27.92\00:10:31.73
US HERE DON'T GO THROUGH DAYS
WHERE WE DON'T DO SUCH A GOOD
00:10:31.73\00:10:37.17
JOB OF OVERCOMING. I
HAD TO LEARN THROUGH MY
00:10:37.17\00:10:42.14
ILLNESS THE IMPORTANCE OF HEALTH
THROUGH YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE.
00:10:42.14\00:10:44.31
>> AMEN. >> BECAUSE WHEN YOU ARE
00:10:44.31\00:10:46.98
PHYSICALLY DEPRESSED, AND YOU
HAVE NO ENERGY TO EVEN PICK UP A
00:10:46.98\00:10:51.98
BOOK -- YOU CAN'T HOLD THE
BIBLE, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
00:10:51.98\00:10:56.85
YOU CAN END UP BEING MENTALLY
AND SPIRITUALLY DEPRESSED, SO
00:10:56.85\00:11:01.62
YOUR HEALTH IS VERY IMPORTANT.
BUT LISTEN TO THIS 1 PETER
00:11:01.62\00:11:08.26
5:6-10. >> AS
YOU WERE SPEAKING --
00:11:08.26\00:11:11.63
>> THAT'S WHERE YOU TURNED.
>> -- I WENT RIGHT THERE.
00:11:11.63\00:11:14.34
>> AMEN. HE
SAYS THEREFORE HUMBLE
00:11:14.34\00:11:17.94
YOURSELF UNDER THE MIGHTY HAND
OF GOD THAT HE MAY EXALT YOU IN
00:11:17.94\00:11:23.28
DUE TIME CASTING ALL OF YOUR
CARE UPON HIM, FOR HE CARES FOR
00:11:23.28\00:11:27.68
YOU, ALL YOU HAVE GOT TO DO
IS JUST GET TO THAT POINT, WHERE
00:11:27.68\00:11:31.32
YOU SAY, LORD,
YOU REALLY DO LOVE ME.
00:11:31.32\00:11:34.89
HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND.
BUT LET ME COME BEFORE YOU TO
00:11:34.89\00:11:39.79
HUMBLE YOURSELF MEANS JUST
TO DEPEND ON GOD, AND THAT'S HIS
00:11:39.79\00:11:44.90
WHOLE PLAN IN SALVATION.
BUT THEN PETER SAYS THIS, CAST
00:11:44.90\00:11:50.27
YOUR CARES ON HIM, BUT HE SAYS
BE SOBER, BE VIGILANT, BECAUSE
00:11:50.27\00:11:58.11
THE DEVIL WALKS AROUND LIKE
A ROARING LION, SEEKING WHOM HE
00:11:58.11\00:12:03.59
MAY DEVOUR. WHEN WE
WERE IN AFRICA, I SPOKE
00:12:03.59\00:12:06.69
AT A CAMP MEETING, AND THEY TOOK
US ON A THREE-DAY PHOTO SAFARI
00:12:06.69\00:12:12.43
AS A TREAT AFTERWARDS, ALL OF
THE SPEAKERS, AND WE WATCHED A
00:12:12.43\00:12:17.03
LION COMING INTO A HERD OF
GAZELLE, AND YOU KNOW WHAT HE
00:12:17.03\00:12:22.07
DID? THE LION
DOES EVERYTHING HE CAN
00:12:22.07\00:12:24.77
TO SEPARATE ONE OF THEM FROM
THE HERD, AS LONG AS THEY ARE
00:12:24.77\00:12:29.08
STAYING IN THE HERD, THEY ARE
FINE, BUT WHEN YOU START STAYING
00:12:29.08\00:12:33.55
BACK FROM THE HERD THIS
IS THE LION, HE'S ROARING.
00:12:33.55\00:12:37.72
HE'S SCARING YOU. AND
MAYBE YOU ARE NO LONGER IN
00:12:37.72\00:12:41.32
GOD'S HERD OF SHEEP.
MAYBE YOU ARE NOT GOING TO
00:12:41.32\00:12:44.26
CHURCH, AND YOU THINK THAT
-- YOU KNOW, YOU ARE GIVING
00:12:44.26\00:12:47.36
UP ON YOURSELF. LET ME
TELL YOU, IF YOU ARE NOT
00:12:47.36\00:12:50.53
STAYING IN CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP,
YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO OVERCOME.
00:12:50.53\00:12:54.00
>> AMEN. >> BECAUSE
THE DEVIL IS GETTING
00:12:54.00\00:12:56.64
YOU SEPARATED. SO
HE WALKS AROUND LIKE A
00:12:56.64\00:13:00.21
ROARING LION
SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR.
00:13:00.21\00:13:08.32
RESIST HIM, KNOWING THE SAME
EXPERIENCES ARE SUFFERED BY YOUR
00:13:08.32\00:13:16.79
BROTHERHOOD AROUND THE WORLD,
BUT AFTER YOU HAVE SUFFERED A
00:13:16.79\00:13:20.06
LITTLE WHILE, PERFECT,
ESTABLISH, STRENGTHEN, AND
00:13:20.06\00:13:24.97
SETTLE YOU. WHOSE IS
GOING TO DO THIS WORK?
00:13:24.97\00:13:27.64
IT IS GOD WORKING IN US.
IT'S US COOPERATING WITH HIM.
00:13:27.64\00:13:32.44
AND -- AND I'LL
END WITH THIS ONE.
00:13:32.44\00:13:37.41
2 CORINTHIANS 3:18, WHEN
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT WE ALL ARE
00:13:37.41\00:13:44.32
UNVEILED FACE OBSERVING,
BEHOLDING AS IN A MIRROR, THE
00:13:44.32\00:13:48.86
GLORY OF GOD, AND
I THINK THIS WORD --
00:13:48.86\00:13:50.93
>> UH-HUH. >> AS
THE MIRROR, BECAUSE THIS
00:13:50.93\00:13:53.93
IS A MIRROR IMAGE OF
WHO WE ARE IN CHRIST JOOE.
00:13:53.93\00:13:57.40
>> OKAY. >> THIS
NOT ONLY SHOWS US OUR
00:13:57.40\00:14:00.97
SIN. THIS SHOWS US ALL OF GOD'S
00:14:00.97\00:14:05.41
PROMISES THAT ARE IN CHRIST.
SO HE SAYS THAT BEHOLDING IS IN
00:14:05.41\00:14:09.88
THE MIRROR, WE'RE
BEING TRANSFORMED.
00:14:09.88\00:14:13.21
WE SEE THE LIFE OF CHRIST, WE
SEE THE PROMISES THAT WE ARE
-pPREDESTINED TO BE CONFIRMED TO
00:14:13.21\00:14:19.15
THE IMAGES OF JESUS.
AND THEN WHAT HAPPENS?
00:14:19.15\00:14:25.23
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS TRANSFORMING
US FROM GORY TO GORY.
00:14:25.23\00:14:29.96
FROM ONE LEVEL OF
GOD'S CHARACTER TO THE NEXT.
00:14:29.96\00:14:32.57
AND THIS IS ALL
PART OF OVERCOMING POWER.
00:14:32.57\00:14:36.30
>> AMEN. >> THIS
IS FROM VICKY, VICKY
00:14:36.30\00:14:49.78
SAYS SHE UNDERSTANDS THE
REQUIREMENTS OF OVERCOMING, BUT
00:14:49.78\00:14:53.19
IF WE ARE SAVED FRM GRACE, ARE
WE TALKING ABOUT WORKING OUT OUR
00:14:53.19\00:14:59.59
SALVATION? SO
WHILE YOU ARE-THAT.
00:14:59.59\00:15:10.37
BECAUSE PASTOR KENNY SAID
SOMETHING THAT TOUCHED ME IN MY
00:15:10.37\00:15:17.55
MIND. BECAUSE JOHN
SAYS THAT HE WHO IS
00:15:17.55\00:15:19.95
IN CHRIST DOES NOT SIN. OF
COURSE YOU MAY GET DEPRESSED
00:15:19.95\00:15:24.29
BECAUSE YOU KNOW THERE IS SOME
SIN IN YOUR LIFE, BUT THAT WORD
00:15:24.29\00:15:29.19
SIN IS IN THE -- SHELLEY
YOU CALLED IT A LINEAR VERB.
00:15:29.19\00:15:35.10
IT DOES NOT KEEP ON SINNING.
1 JOHN 2:1, SAYS IF WE SIN, WE
00:15:35.10\00:15:42.37
HAVE AN ADVOCATE WITH THE
FATHER, SO CHRIST HAS TAKEN CARE
00:15:42.37\00:15:47.01
OF US. YOU DO NOT FALL IN SIN.
00:15:47.01\00:15:49.28
YOU DO NOT WALLOW IN SIN.
YOU DO NOT CONTINUE TO PRACTICE
00:15:49.28\00:15:54.08
SIN. >> IT IS NOT YOUR HABIT.
00:15:54.08\00:15:55.38
>> IT IS NOT YOUR
HABIT. IT IS NOT PART OF YOUR
00:15:55.38\00:15:59.72
CHARACTER, BUT IF YOU MAKE
A MISTAKE, YOU ARE AN ADVOCATE
00:15:59.72\00:16:05.16
WITH CHRIST. THOSE
TIMES WHEN YOU STP AND A
00:16:05.16\00:16:08.33
LITTLE MUD AND YOUR SHOES
GET DIRTY, HE TAKES CARE OF THAT
00:16:08.33\00:16:13.94
ALSO. ALSO IN 1
JOHN 1:9 SAYS IF WE
00:16:13.94\00:16:17.91
CONFESS OUR SINS HE IS FAITHFUL
AND JUST, BUT I WANT TO DROP
00:16:17.91\00:16:23.61
BACK TO VERSE 7, WHICH SAYS IF
WE WALK IN THE LIGHT AS HE IS IN
00:16:23.61\00:16:29.08
THE LIGHT. YOU SEE
OUR JOB IS TO KEEP ON
00:16:29.08\00:16:32.32
WALKING IN THE LIGHT. >> AMEN.
00:16:32.32\00:16:34.06
>> AND WE GET
FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER.
00:16:34.06\00:16:41.36
AS YOU WALK IN THE LIGHT, YOUR
FELLOWSHIP WITH OTHER PEOPLE WHO
00:16:41.36\00:16:44.87
ARE IN THE LIGHT, AND IT IS THAT
FELLOWSHIP THAT HELPS YOU TO
00:16:44.87\00:16:49.24
OVERCOME. YOU
NEED TO FIND SOME GOOD
00:16:49.24\00:16:51.61
CHRISTIAN FRIENDS TO ENCOURAGE
YOU TO WHOM YOU CAN BE REAL
00:16:51.61\00:16:55.51
WITH, AND TO WHOM YOU CAN GO
WITH YOUR PROBLEMS AND STUDY THE
00:16:55.51\00:16:59.25
WORD OF GOD. THIS
ENCOURAGES US WHEN WE HEAR
00:16:59.25\00:17:03.52
WHAT EACH ONE BRINGS.
IT MAKES OUR WALK STRONGER.
00:17:03.52\00:17:07.46
WE HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE
ANOTHER, AND THE BLOOD OF CHRIST
00:17:07.46\00:17:14.36
CLEANSES US. SO YOU
GET THE DOUBLE BLESSING
00:17:14.36\00:17:17.13
OF HAVING SAINTS WHO LOVE THE
LORD AND LOVE YOU, AND WHOM YOU
00:17:17.13\00:17:21.07
CAN WALK WITH, AND THEN YOU HAVE
THE BLOOD OF CHRIST WHICH IS
00:17:21.07\00:17:25.21
CLEANSING YOU OF YOUR SIN SO YOU
ARE TRULY A SON OR DAUGHTER OF
00:17:25.21\00:17:29.48
GOD, ALL PART OF THE CLEANSING
OVERCOMING EXPERIENCE, ONE FEEDS
00:17:29.48\00:17:34.58
INTO THE OTHER
LIKE HAND IN GLOVE.
00:17:34.58\00:17:38.55
>> CAN I ANSWER
VICKY'S QUESTION.
00:17:38.55\00:17:41.26
>> AND I WILL
CONTINUE AFTER YOU.
00:17:41.26\00:17:43.86
>> OKAY. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:17:43.86\00:17:44.76
>> MISS VICKY, I JUST WANT TO
SAY, FIRST OF ALL, THAT WE HAVE
00:17:44.76\00:17:49.30
SAVED BY GRACE. >> MAIN.
00:17:49.30\00:17:50.83
>> BUT WHEN YOU THINK THAT GOD
IS THE GIVER OF EVERY PERFECT
00:17:50.83\00:17:56.44
AND GIVING GIFT, HE
GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON.
00:17:56.44\00:18:01.78
JESUS IS THE
GREATEST GIFT OF GOD'S GRACE.
00:18:01.78\00:18:04.15
>> AMEN. >> WHEN
YOU THINK OF THE HOLY
00:18:04.15\00:18:07.18
SPIRIT IS THE SECOND GREATEST
GIFT OF GOD'S GRACE, AND HE GAVE
00:18:07.18\00:18:12.02
US THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT WE COULD
HAVE THE POWER TO OVERCOME SIN,
00:18:12.02\00:18:16.29
AND THE WORD OF GOD TO ME IS
THE THIRD GREATEST GIFT OF HIS
00:18:16.29\00:18:20.33
GRACE. SO YOUR
QUESTION ARE WE TRYING
00:18:20.33\00:18:22.40
TO WORK OUR SALVATION? NO.
00:18:22.40\00:18:25.23
BUT IN PHILIPPIANS 2:12
PAUL WRITES, AND HE TELLS THE
00:18:25.23\00:18:31.07
PHILIPPIANS, THEREFORE, MY
BELOVED, AS YOU HAVE ALWAYS
00:18:31.07\00:18:35.38
OBEYED NOT AS IN MY PRESENCE
ONLY, BUT NOW MUCH MORE IN MY
00:18:35.38\00:18:40.22
ABSENCE, WORK OUT YOUR
OWN SALVATION WITH FEAR AND
00:18:40.22\00:18:44.75
TREMBLING. I USED TO
STOP RIGHT THERE, AND
00:18:44.75\00:18:46.82
I LITERALLY -- MY --
MY KNEES WOULD KNOCK.
00:18:46.82\00:18:50.26
I SPENT THE FIRST 50 YEARS OF MY
LIFE TRYING TO WORK OUT MY OWN
00:18:50.26\00:18:56.00
SALVATION, FEARING, TREMBLING,
BECAUSE I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE
00:18:56.00\00:18:58.97
LOVE OF GOD. I DIDN'T
UNDERSTAND THE GRACE OF
00:18:58.97\00:19:01.70
GOD. I DIDN'T
UNDERSTAND THE POWER OF
00:19:01.70\00:19:04.07
GOD. AND SO I WOULD JUST
00:19:04.07\00:19:06.51
SOMETIMES -- I
WOULD JUST GET SO OVERW
00:19:06.51\00:19:10.11
OVERWHELMED, IT
WAS LIKE, ALL RIGHT.
00:19:10.11\00:19:11.78
I REMEMBER ONCE I ACTUALLY
TURNED MY BACK ON GOD FOR A
00:19:11.78\00:19:16.69
WHILE, BECAUSE I JUST LOOKED
AT HIM, AND I SAID, I CAN'T MEET
00:19:16.69\00:19:20.39
YOUR EXPECTATIONS, BUT I DIDN'T
KNOW ABOUT GRACE, ABOUT CHRIST,
00:19:20.39\00:19:24.23
AND THE SPIRIT AND THE WORD,
AND THE POWER TO ME, AND THEN I
00:19:24.23\00:19:28.56
WASN'T CONTINUING.-THIS SHOULD
BE ALL ONE SENTENCE. I WISH THEY
00:19:28.56\00:19:34.27
HADN'T MADE IT TWO VERSES,
BUT HERE IS WHAT HE SAYS.
00:19:34.27\00:19:37.51
WORK OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION WITH
FEAR AND TREMBLING, BUT NOT IN
00:19:37.51\00:19:42.48
YOUR OWN STRENGTH, FOR IT IS
GOD-pWHO WORKS IN YOU. >> AMEN.
00:19:42.48\00:19:46.72
>> BOTH TO WILL AND TO DO HIS
GOOD PLEASURE, SO WHAT WE ARE
00:19:46.72\00:19:52.35
TALKING ABOUT IS YIELDING TO
GOD, AND ALLOWING GOD TO WORK IN
00:19:52.35\00:19:58.23
US. IT IS GOD
WHO WILL MAKE US AN
00:19:58.23\00:20:01.30
OVERCOMER. >> AMEN.
00:20:01.30\00:20:02.10
>> AMEN. >> I
WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO
00:20:02.10\00:20:04.80
THAT -- THANK YOU, SHELLEY.
I'M GLAD YOU INCLUDED VERSUS 13,
00:20:04.80\00:20:10.77
BECAUSE VERSUS 12 HAS BEEN THE
VERSE OF INTEP  -- INTREPIDATION
00:20:10.77\00:20:19.15
AND TERROR FOR MANY.-THERE WAS
AN EVANGELIST THAT SAID KEEP ON
00:20:19.15\00:20:24.45
READING. >> YES, SIR.
>> WHEN THE LORD SAVED THE
00:20:24.45\00:20:27.19
CHILDREN OF ISRAEL FROM
EGYPT -- I'M GOING TO USE THE
00:20:27.19\00:20:30.03
WORD AGAIN,
SAVED -- >> ABSOLUTELY.
00:20:30.03\00:20:33.40
>> HE DID NOT BRING THEM OUT
BECAUSE THEY SAVED THEMSELVES.
00:20:33.40\00:20:37.07
>> THAT'S
CORRECT. >> HE SAVED THEM.
00:20:37.07\00:20:39.17
HE BROUGHT THEM
OUT WITH A MIGHTY HAND.
00:20:39.17\00:20:41.40
>> THAT'S CORRECT. >>
AND THEN IN THE WILDERNESS,
00:20:41.40\00:20:45.14
HE SAID STAND STILL AND SEE THE
SALVATION OF THE LORD, WHICH HE
00:20:45.14\00:20:49.18
WILL ACCOMPLISH FOR
YOU. SAVE THEM FROM EGYPT.
00:20:49.18\00:20:54.12
SAVED THEM WHO TRUSTED
IN HIM IN THE WILDERNESS.
00:20:54.12\00:20:58.35
FOR THOSE WHO DIDN'T. THE
BIBLE SAYS BUT WITH MANY OF
00:20:58.35\00:21:03.59
THEM, GOD WAS NOT WELL PLEASED.
WHY WAS HE NOT WELL PLEASED?
00:21:03.59\00:21:07.50
YOU HAVE GOT TO LET
THE BIBLE SPEAK FOR ITSELF.
00:21:07.50\00:21:12.03
WITHOUT FAITH IT IS
IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE HIM.
00:21:12.03\00:21:15.60
HE WHO COMES TO GOD
MUST BELIEVE THAT HE IS --
00:21:15.60\00:21:18.84
>> YES. >> -- AND
THAT HE IS A REWARDER
00:21:18.84\00:21:23.04
OF THOSE WHO
DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM.
00:21:23.04\00:21:25.15
WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO
DO WITH HIM OVERCOMING.
00:21:25.15\00:21:28.08
YOU SEE, THE SALVATION FROM
SIN IS WORK DONE BY GOD FOR US.
00:21:28.08\00:21:32.45
THAT'S THE SALVATION FROM
THE PENALTY OF SIN, DEATH.
00:21:32.45\00:21:36.69
SALVATION FROM THE POWER OF SIN
IS WORK DONE BY GOD THROUGH US.
00:21:36.69\00:21:41.06
>> UH-HUH. >> UH-HUH.
00:21:41.06\00:21:42.73
>> OKAY? >> UH-HUH.
00:21:42.73\00:21:46.33
UH-HUH. >>
SALVATION FROM THE PENALTY IS
00:21:46.33\00:21:48.77
A WORK DONE BY GOD FOR US.
SALVATION FROM THE POWER OF SIN
00:21:48.77\00:21:53.91
IS WORK OF GOD DONE THROUGH US.
NOW -- BUT I WANT TO ALSO ADD,
00:21:53.91\00:21:58.21
WHEN PAUL PUT IT TOGETHER, HE
SAID I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH
00:21:58.21\00:22:02.28
CHRIST. HE MADE IT
VERY CLEAR THAT YOU
00:22:02.28\00:22:03.85
ARE NOT -- YOU ARE NOT
DOING THIS APART FROM HIM.
00:22:03.85\00:22:07.12
THERE'S NO SALVATION --
THERE'S NOTHING APART FROM YOU.
00:22:07.12\00:22:10.66
THERE'S NOTHING IN YOU THAT
CAN ACCOMPLISH, ONLY WHAT IS
00:22:10.66\00:22:14.56
ACCOMPLISHED
THROUGH CHRIST. >> YES.
00:22:14.56\00:22:16.00
>> SO THAT'S THE DAY-TO-DAY.
WE'RE NOT IN THE PROMISE LAND
00:22:16.00\00:22:21.04
YET, WHERE WE WILL BE
SAVED FROM THE PRESENCE OF SIN.
00:22:21.04\00:22:24.21
WE'RE NOT IN THE FORMER LIFE
WHERE WE NEED TO BE SAVED FROM
00:22:24.21\00:22:27.41
THE PENALTY -- WE'RE IN
THE PRESENT LIFE, WHERE WE NEED
00:22:27.41\00:22:31.38
SALVATION FROM THE
POWER OF SIN, RIGHT?
00:22:31.38\00:22:34.32
>> AMEN. >> THIS IS WHERE OUR
00:22:34.32\00:22:36.89
RESPONSIBILITY COMES IN.
THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION TO
00:22:36.89\00:22:40.26
THOSE WHO ARE IN
CHRIST JESUS, IS THAT CORRECT?
00:22:40.26\00:22:43.39
WHO WALKED -- >> NOT
ACCORDING TO THE FLESH --
00:22:43.39\00:22:47.73
>> WHO DO NOT WALK ACCORDING TO
THE FLESH, BUT ACCORDING TO THE
00:22:47.73\00:22:51.27
SPIRIT. HERE IS THE KEY.
00:22:51.27\00:22:52.63
THE REASON I MENTIONED THE
ISRAELITES, BECAUSE THE LORD DID
00:22:52.63\00:22:57.21
NOT TAKE THEM IN
CARAVAN FROM EGYPT.
00:22:57.21\00:22:59.71
HE DIDN'T TAKE THEM ON
BUSES OR HORSES OR DONKEYS.
00:22:59.71\00:23:03.04
HE MADE THEM WALK. >> MERCY.
00:23:03.04\00:23:05.51
>> THE JOY OF THE LORD
IS THAT WE WALK IN TRUTH.
00:23:05.51\00:23:10.05
THE DAY BY DAY WALK IS THE
RELIANCE ON JESUS, BECAUSE THIS
00:23:10.05\00:23:14.72
IS WHERE THE
OVERCOMING COMES IN.
00:23:14.72\00:23:16.76
IF YOU MISSED THE FIRST HALF
OF THE PROGRAM, WHEN IT COMES ON
00:23:16.76\00:23:20.66
AGAIN, CATCH IT, BECAUSE SHELLEY
SO WONDERFULLY OUTLINED THE
00:23:20.66\00:23:25.63
SEVEN BLESSINGS OF GOD THAT COME
WHEN WE OVERCOME THROUGH HIM.
00:23:25.63\00:23:31.17
>> UH-HUH. >> BUT
IT'S THE DAY-TO-DAY
00:23:31.17\00:23:34.94
DECISION TO WALK. >> UH-HUH.
00:23:34.94\00:23:36.64
>> YOU HAVE GOT TO
CHOOSE HOW TO WALK.
00:23:36.64\00:23:38.98
>> AMEN. >> ONLY
AS YOU WALK DO THESE
00:23:38.98\00:23:41.88
PASSAGES COME -- NOW I'LL GO TO
ANOTHER ONE THAT SEEMS LIKE IT
00:23:41.88\00:23:45.39
IS ALMOST UP TO US. 1
JOHN 3:3, EVERYONE WHO HAS
00:23:45.39\00:23:50.89
THIS HOPE IN HIM --
>> PURIFIES HIMSELF.
00:23:50.89\00:23:54.36
>> PURIFIES
HIMSELF FOR HE IS PURE.
00:23:54.36\00:23:57.77
JUST AS HE IS PURE. >> UH-HUH.
00:23:57.77\00:23:59.90
>> THAT MEANS YOU
MAKE PURE CHOICES.
00:23:59.90\00:24:03.54
A PURE PERSON
MAKES PURE CHOICES.
00:24:03.54\00:24:05.87
A PURE PERSON
WALKS IN A PURE PATH.
00:24:05.87\00:24:10.08
YOU DON'T WALK ON A DIRTY
PATH IF YOU JUST GOT CLEAN.
00:24:10.08\00:24:13.82
THE LORD IS
SAYING I CLEANED YOU.
00:24:13.82\00:24:17.05
MAKE SOME CLEAN CHOICES.
YOU CAN'T MAKE DIRTY CHOICES AND
00:24:17.05\00:24:21.22
JUST SAY, GRACE, GRACE. HE
SAYS SHALL WE CONTINUE -- AND
00:24:21.22\00:24:25.79
WHAT IS THE
ANSWER? >> GOD FORBID.
00:24:25.79\00:24:32.57
>> AMEN. >> BLESSED
IS HE WHO WASHES AND
00:24:32.57\00:24:36.47
KEEPS HIS GARMENT.
WHY KEEP HIS GARMENT?
00:24:36.47\00:24:40.11
THAT'S WHAT ADAM AND
EVE LOST. HE SAYS KEEP IT.
00:24:40.11\00:24:43.55
>> UH-HUH. >> OKAY?
00:24:43.55\00:24:45.45
AND LAST ONE. MATTER
OF FACT 1 CORINTHIANS
00:24:45.45\00:24:52.12
15:57 THANKS BE TO GOD
TO GIVE US THE VICTORY.
00:24:52.12\00:24:59.16
>> AMEN. >> IT IS
IN THE DAY-TO-DAY.
00:24:59.16\00:25:02.13
>> UH-HUH. >> IT IS
ALL ABOUT CHRIST, IF
00:25:02.13\00:25:05.30
YOU YIELD TO CHRIST,
AM I OPENING DOORS HERE?
00:25:05.30\00:25:07.80
IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD OPENING
DOORS, NOT ME, I'M SORRY.
00:25:07.80\00:25:12.64
WHEN YOU YIELD TO CHRIST
DAY-TO-DAY, YOU'LL FIND THIS
00:25:12.64\00:25:15.68
WALK -- HAVE YOU
EVER SEEN A BABY WALK?
00:25:15.68\00:25:19.51
>> YES. >> COME ON.
00:25:19.51\00:25:21.88
>> ANYBODY BABY WHO LETS GO OF
THEIR DADDY OR MOMMA'S HAND IS
00:25:21.88\00:25:29.89
GOING TO STUMBLE. SO
IT'S ALL ABOUT CHRIST.
00:25:29.89\00:25:32.56
IF YOU ARE IN CHRIST, WALK IN
HIM, CHOOSE IN HIM, LEAN ON HIM,
00:25:32.56\00:25:37.73
BELIEVE IN HIM. >> AMEN.
00:25:37.73\00:25:39.50
>> AND PETER SAYS, IF YOU
DO THESE THINGS, YOU WILL NEVER
00:25:39.50\00:25:44.37
STUMBLE. >> STUMBLE.
00:25:44.37\00:25:45.54
AMEN. AMEN.
00:25:45.54\00:25:47.28
>> THAT'S THE DAILY OVERCOMING.
NOW ONE MORE THING I WANT TO
00:25:47.28\00:25:51.98
ADD, BECAUSE YOU MADE THIS POINT
AND I WANT TO GT BACK ON IT,
00:25:51.98\00:25:56.92
BECAUSE THE LORD JUST
BROUGHT IT TO MY MIND.
00:25:56.92\00:25:59.72
THOSE IN CHRIST
JESUS DO NOT SIN.
00:25:59.72\00:26:02.26
AND THE VERB THERE IS DO
NOT -PRACTICE. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:26:02.26\00:26:06.09
>> YES. >> IF YOU
DON'T PRACTICE IT, YOU
00:26:06.09\00:26:10.53
CAN'T KEEP ON
SINNING. >> UH-HUH.
00:26:10.53\00:26:14.80
>> BUT HERE IS THE POINT I
WANT TO BRING OUT IS YOU HAVE TO
00:26:14.80\00:26:18.37
UNDERSTAND THAT THE PERFECTION
IN YOUR CHARACTER IS NT YOUR
00:26:18.37\00:26:22.38
CHARACTER. >> AMEN.
00:26:22.38\00:26:23.24
>> THERE YOU GO.
THAT'S A GOOD ONE.
00:26:23.24\00:26:25.08
>> AMEN. >> IN YOUR
CHARACTER IS NOT YOUR
00:26:25.08\00:26:28.62
CHARACTER, BUT IT IS
PRESENTLY -- NOW, AS HE IS, SO
00:26:28.62\00:26:32.42
ARE WE IN THIS PRESENT WORLD.
SO DON'T BE DISCOURAGED WHEN YOU
00:26:32.42\00:26:36.89
HEAR THAT, BECAUSE THIS WHOLE
IDEA OF WILL NOT SIN, CANNOT
00:26:36.89\00:26:40.66
SIN, WILL NOT KEEP ON
SINNING, WILL NOT PRACTICE SIN.
00:26:40.66\00:26:44.50
THE PERFECTION IN US IS
NOT OUR PERFECTION, IT IS HIS
00:26:44.50\00:26:50.11
PERFECTION. >> BUT
IT IS STILL PERFECTION
00:26:50.11\00:26:51.94
THAT IS PERFECTING.
JOHN IS [ INAUDIBLE ].
00:26:51.94\00:26:55.11
AND I WANT TO GO BACK TO
THOSE THREE TEXTS I ALLUDED TO.
00:26:55.11\00:27:03.08
1 JOHN 3:6. WHOEVER
ABIDES IN HIM DOES NOT
00:27:03.08\00:27:08.19
SIN. YOUR JOB THERE IS TO ABIDE.
00:27:08.19\00:27:09.89
>> ABIDE. >> SO YOU
HAVE A PART TO PLAY.
00:27:09.89\00:27:13.46
VERSUS 9 WHOEVER HAS BEN
BORN OF GOD DOES NOT SIN.
00:27:13.46\00:27:17.67
SO THERE IT IS AGAIN.
IN THE IMPERFECT TENTS.
00:27:17.67\00:27:23.41
NOW WE GO OVER TO 5:18.
>> 1 JOHN IS AN AMAZING BOOK.
00:27:23.41\00:27:27.88
>> IT IS INDEED. WE
KNOW THAT WHOEVER IS BORN OF
00:27:27.88\00:27:31.38
GOD, HE SAYS IT
AGAIN, DOES NOT SIN.
00:27:31.38\00:27:33.98
SO WE HAVE GOT THES
THREE -- THREE INCIDENTS WHERE
00:27:33.98\00:27:39.25
WE DON'T CONTINUE IN
SIN BECAUSE WE ABIDE IN HIM.
00:27:39.25\00:27:41.99
SO OUR JOB IS THE ABIDING, AND
THEN CHRIST WILL DO THE REST,
00:27:41.99\00:27:47.96
AND WE KNOW THAT BECAUSE OF
A LITTLE SOMETHING HE TUCKED IN
00:27:47.96\00:27:52.77
CHAPTER 5 BEGINNING OF VERSE 2,
BY THIS WE KNOW THAT THE LOVELY
00:27:52.77\00:27:57.87
CHILDREN OF GOD, WHEN WE LOVE
GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS,
00:27:57.87\00:28:03.28
SO THEY GO HAND IN HAND.
THERE IS A WORK FOR YOU TO DO.
00:28:03.28\00:28:07.95
LOVING GOD AND
KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS.
00:28:07.95\00:28:10.55
LOVING GOD, AND
KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS.
00:28:10.55\00:28:13.52
KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS
WITHOUT LOVING GOD IS NOT COM
00:28:13.52\00:28:19.49
COMMENT -- COMMANDMENT KEEPS.
FOR THIS IS THE LOVE OF GOD,
00:28:19.49\00:28:23.83
THAT WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS,
AND HIS COMMANDMENTS ARE NOT
00:28:23.83\00:28:29.17
BURDENSOME BECAUSE OF THE
NEW COVENANT EXPERIENCE, BECAUSE
00:28:29.17\00:28:32.11
IT'S NOT WRITTEN ON TABLES OF
STONE ANYMORE, IT'S WRITTEN IN
00:28:32.11\00:28:35.81
YOUR HEART, SO IT'S JUST
THE OUTWORKING OF AN EXISTING
00:28:35.81\00:28:42.65
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, BECAUSE
HE SAYS WHATEVER IS BORN OF GOD
00:28:42.65\00:28:48.16
OVERCOMES THE WORLD.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.
00:28:48.16\00:28:50.56
AND THIS IS THE VICTORY THAT
OVERCOMES THE WORLD, OUR FAITH.
00:28:50.56\00:28:54.20
>> AMEN. >> AMEN.
00:28:54.20\00:28:56.46
>> SO IT'S THE CONSEQUENCE OF A
FAITH-RELATED RELATIONSHIP WITH
00:28:56.46\00:29:00.87
JESUS CHRIST.
WHEN YOU COME INTO A
00:29:00.87\00:29:03.30
RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS, DOING
THE THINGS OF CHRIST IS NOT
00:29:03.30\00:29:07.41
BURDENSOME, IT'S NOT SOMETHING
YOU READ ON A PIECE OF PAPER AND
00:29:07.41\00:29:11.28
THEN TRY TO ENACT IN YOUR LIFE,
IT IS THE OUTWORKING OF CHRIST
00:29:11.28\00:29:15.88
IN YOU. LET THIS
MIND BE IN YOU, WHICH
00:29:15.88\00:29:19.22
WAS ALSO IN CHRIST JOOE JESUS.
AND EVEN IF YOU DID WITHOUT
00:29:19.22\00:29:24.43
CHRIST, YOU DON'T GET CREDIT,
BECAUSE THE ONLY RIGHTEOUSNESS
00:29:24.43\00:29:28.80
COMES FROM JESUS CHRIST, SO
AS CHRIST IS IN US, HE LIVES
00:29:28.80\00:29:32.47
HUSBAND LIFE THROUGH US, AND WE
BECOME OBEDIENT BECAUSE WE ARE
00:29:32.47\00:29:38.07
ONE WITH CHRIST JESUS. >>
PHILIPPIANS 2:12, SOMETIMES
00:29:38.07\00:29:45.85
THAT MAY BE DISSECTED -- NEEDS
TO BE DISSECTED JUST A LITTLE
00:29:45.85\00:29:50.12
BIT. BECAUSE I
LOOKED AT IT AND I
00:29:50.12\00:29:54.06
THOUGHT WORKOUT. WHAT
DOES THAT REALLY MEAN?
00:29:54.06\00:29:59.73
WORK OUT IS SIMPLY,
HERE, CARRY TO COMPLETION.
00:29:59.73\00:30:03.13
WE MUST CARRY THIS TO
COMPLETION NOT BEEN WORKS.
00:30:03.13\00:30:07.70
WORKS ARE THE
OUTWORKING OF GRACE.
00:30:07.70\00:30:10.07
>> THERE YOU GO. >>
WORKS ARE THE OUTWORKING
00:30:10.07\00:30:15.34
OF -- WHAT? OF GRACE
ON THE HEART THAT HAS
00:30:15.34\00:30:18.88
AFFECTED MY SALVATION.
YOUR SALVATION, SO IT COMES INTO
00:30:18.88\00:30:21.82
PLAY HERE.
SALVATION IS NOT OF WORKS, BUT
00:30:21.82\00:30:25.05
IT MUST BE WORKED OUT.
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE READ
00:30:25.05\00:30:30.13
THAT? SALVATION IS WHAT?
00:30:30.13\00:30:32.26
NOT OF WORKS, BUT
IT MUST BE WORKED OUT.
00:30:32.26\00:30:35.93
AND LET ME GIVE YOU
A COUPLE ILLUSTRATIONS?
00:30:35.93\00:30:40.80
LUKE 5:24, THE BIBLE STAYS
DRIVE TO ENTER INTO THE GATE.
00:30:40.80\00:30:47.11
STRIVE TO ENTER. LAY
ASIDE EVERY WEIGHT RUN WITH
00:30:47.11\00:30:56.32
PATIENCE, HEBREWS 12:1.
SOUNDS LIKE A BATTLE GOING ON
00:30:56.32\00:31:01.16
EVERY DAY. YOU READ THIS, JAMES
4:7, RESIST-THE DEVIL AND HE
00:31:01.16\00:31:10.47
WILL FLEE FROM YOU. HE
WHO ENDURES TO THE END,
00:31:10.47\00:31:14.20
MATTHEW 24:13. HE
CAN STAY IN THERE BY THE
00:31:14.20\00:31:19.54
GRACE OF GOD, YOUR OWN SALVATION
IS AN INDIVIDUAL MATTER.
00:31:19.54\00:31:23.85
I REMEMBER READING THAT TEXT
EZEKIEL IT TALKS ABOUT NOAH AND
00:31:23.85\00:31:32.12
DANIEL, AND JOB.
THEY CAN'T SAVE SON NOR
00:31:32.12\00:31:37.89
DAUGHTER, BUT
DELIVER THEIR OWN SOULS.
00:31:37.89\00:31:39.83
FEAR AND TREMBLING, WORK IT OUT
WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING, WHY?
00:31:39.83\00:31:47.20
A SELF -- FEAR AND
TREMBLING IS A SELF DISTRUST.
00:31:47.20\00:31:51.34
>> YES. >> AMEN.
00:31:51.34\00:31:53.41
>> I HAVE SAID IT SO MANY
TIMES IN MY OWN LIFE, I DISTRUST
00:31:53.41\00:31:57.88
MYSELF. >> UH-HUH.
00:31:57.88\00:31:59.25
>> THE REASON WE SAY THAT IS
BECAUSE IN 1 CORINTHIANS 12, A
00:31:59.25\00:32:07.46
SELF DISTRUST, FEAR THAT WE MAY
NOT FULLY SURRENDER TO CHRIST.
00:32:07.46\00:32:11.96
FEAR THAT THE TRST -- THAT
WE TRUST TO OUR OWN -- OUR OWN
00:32:11.96\00:32:16.36
STRENGTH, THIS FEAR LEADS US TO
WATCH, LESS WE BE TEMPTED, AND
00:32:16.36\00:32:24.67
TAKING HEED THAT WE FALL. SO
TO ME WE HAVE TO HAVE FEAR TO
00:32:24.67\00:32:30.18
TRUST IN OUR OWN STRENGTH.
HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW
00:32:30.18\00:32:34.12
TRUST IN THEIR OWN STRENGTH?
DAY BY DAY, I CAN DO IT.
00:32:34.12\00:32:39.12
I HEARD A MAN SAY ONE
TIME -- HE BECAME THE PREACHER.
00:32:39.12\00:32:44.09
AND HE WAS ALWAYS BASHFUL AND
SHY, AND I WAS TALKING TO HIM
00:32:44.09\00:32:48.23
ONE DAY, AND I SAID I'M GLAD
YOU MADE A CHOICE TO BECOME A
00:32:48.23\00:32:52.37
PREACHER OF THE WORD, AND
HE LOOKED AT ME AND HE SAID YOU
00:32:52.37\00:32:55.87
KNOW WHAT, I ALWAYS KNEW I
COULD DO IT IF I WANTED TO.
00:32:55.87\00:33:00.78
THAT WAS THE
WRONG ANSWER FOR ME.
00:33:00.78\00:33:02.74
I ALWAYS KNEW I COULD DO IT IF
I-pWANTED TO? WHERE WAS CHRIST?
00:33:02.74\00:33:07.18
HE WAS LEFT OUT
OF THE WHOLE PICTURE?
00:33:07.18\00:33:09.72
>> YEAH. >> WHERE
IS THE CALLING THAT
00:33:09.72\00:33:14.32
COMES FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT.
TOO MANY PEOPLE ARE IN POSITIONS
00:33:14.32\00:33:18.43
THAT THEY HAVE NEVER
BEEN CALLED TO BE IN.
00:33:18.43\00:33:20.66
THEY ARE IN POSITIONS THAT GOD
NEVER CALLED THEM AND NEVER PUT
00:33:20.66\00:33:24.37
THEM IN. >> THEY
ARE DOING IT AS A
00:33:24.37\00:33:28.64
PROFESSION AND
NOT AL -- A CALLING.
00:33:28.64\00:33:39.31
>> I THINK YOUR POINT
ABOUT BEING WORKS OF GRACE IS
00:33:39.31\00:33:44.19
WELL-TAKEN. WORKS
HAS BECOME A DIRTY WORD
00:33:44.19\00:33:46.52
FOR SOME. BUT LISTEN TO THIS.
00:33:46.52\00:33:49.09
THIS EPHESIANS 2:8-10, BY GRACE
YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED THROUGH
00:33:49.09\00:33:56.97
FAITH NOT OF WORK -- NOT OF
YOURSELF, IT IS A GIFT OF GOD
00:33:56.97\00:34:01.27
NOT OF WORK THAT ANYONE
SHOULD BOAST, FOR WE ARE HIS
00:34:01.27\00:34:05.74
WORKMANSHIP CREATED IN CHRIST
JESUS FOR GOOD WORK WHICH GOD
00:34:05.74\00:34:11.78
PREPARED BEFOREHAND
THAT WE SHOULD WALK IN THEM.
00:34:11.78\00:34:13.72
>> AMEN. >> SO THE
WORKS ARE THE WORKS OF
00:34:13.72\00:34:17.02
GOD IF HE IS WORKING OUT HIS
WILL, HIS GOOD PLEASURE FOR US
00:34:17.02\00:34:21.72
TO WILL AND TO DO.
AND THEN I WANTED TO PUT A
00:34:21.72\00:34:25.73
LITTLE EXCLAMATION POINT ON WHAT
YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT WHEN YOU
00:34:25.73\00:34:29.46
WERE READING FROM 1
JOHN, AND HOW WE WILL KEEP HIS
00:34:29.46\00:34:33.20
COMMANDMENTS IF WE -- YOU
KNOW, IF WE'RE HIS CHILDREN, AND
00:34:33.20\00:34:39.57
THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S EXPRESSING
COVENANT LOYALTY TO THE LORD.
00:34:39.57\00:34:44.68
WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS
BECAUSE WE LOVE HIM.
00:34:44.68\00:34:47.38
AND JESUS SAID IF YOU
LOVE ME, KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS.
00:34:47.38\00:34:50.75
WE DO IT AS AN EXPRESSION
OF OUR GRAD -- GRATITUDE.
00:34:50.75\00:34:58.29
JOHN SAYS IN 1 JOHN 2:4 --
WELL, NO, LET ME READ VERSUS 3.
00:34:58.29\00:35:07.37
NOW BY THIS WE
KNOW THA WE KNOW HIM.
00:35:07.37\00:35:09.90
THIS IS HOW WE
KNOW IF WE KNOW GOD.
00:35:09.90\00:35:12.27
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> IF
WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS.
00:35:12.27\00:35:15.71
>> AMEN. >> HE WHO
SAYS, I KNOW HIM, AND
00:35:15.71\00:35:19.41
DOES NOT KEEP HIS
COMMANDMENTS IS A LIAR.
00:35:19.41\00:35:22.58
>> UH-HUH. >> AND
THE TRUTH IS NOT IN HIM.
00:35:22.58\00:35:26.42
BUT WHOEVER KEEPS HIS
WORD, TRULY THE LOVE OF GOD IS
00:35:26.42\00:35:31.46
PERFECTED IN HIM. BY
THIS WE KNOW THAT WE ARE IN
00:35:31.46\00:35:35.20
HIM. HE WHO
SAYS HE ABIDES IN HIM
00:35:35.20\00:35:38.20
OUGHT ALSO TO
WALK JUST AS HE WALKED.
00:35:38.20\00:35:40.70
>> AMEN. >> NOW ONE
MORE POINT -- I WANT
00:35:40.70\00:35:43.57
TWO MORE
SCRIPTURES PLEASE. >> SURE.
00:35:43.57\00:35:45.94
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
I'M ABOUT TO EXPLODE.
00:35:45.94\00:35:47.68
>> OH, GOOD. WE'RE
ALL ABOUT TO EXPLODE.
00:35:47.68\00:35:50.35
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
WHEN WE WERE TALKING
00:35:50.35\00:35:51.88
ABOUT -- WE WERE TALKING ABOUT
IN 1 JOHN IT IS THE IMPERFECT
00:35:51.88\00:36:04.69
TENTS, IT MEANS YOU
DO NOT KEEP ON SINNING.
00:36:04.69\00:36:07.13
IT DOESN'T MEAN, AS YOU READ
THAT WE WON'T EVER SIN, BECAUSE
00:36:07.13\00:36:11.63
1 JOHN ALSO SAYS HE SAYS
HE IS WITHOUT SIN IS A LIAR.
00:36:11.63\00:36:16.44
THE TRUTH IS NOT IN HIM.
BUT LISTEN TO THIS, WE WILL FALL
00:36:16.44\00:36:21.61
OCCASIONALLY. WE DO
BUMP OUR TOE AND STUMBLE
00:36:21.61\00:36:24.38
ONNING CAKE NATIONALLY.
>> AND THE BIBLE CALLS THAT
00:36:24.38\00:36:29.48
TRESPASS. TRESPASSES.
00:36:29.48\00:36:31.19
>> YEAH. >>
TRESPASSES WERE SINS THAT
00:36:31.19\00:36:33.79
WERE UNINTENTIONAL. YOU
TOOK YOUR EYE OFF OF THE
00:36:33.79\00:36:42.06
MARK. WHEN YOU
TAKE YOUR EYE OFF OF
00:36:42.06\00:36:43.90
THE MARK YOU STUMBLE.
WHEN YOU NO LOOK TO JESUS TO BE
00:36:43.90\00:36:51.17
SAVED, YOU STUMBLE. >> YEAH.
00:36:51.17\00:36:56.31
>> WHEN YOU LOOK AT THAT,
THOUGH, EVERYBODY WANTS TO
00:36:56.31\00:37:00.88
READ -- I
UNDERSTAND. >> IT'S OKAY.
00:37:00.88\00:37:03.55
>> WE KNOW WHILE PROBATION'S
DOOR IS OPEN -- THIS IS WHAT
00:37:03.55\00:37:07.56
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, WHN
PROBATION'S DOOR IS SHUT, THERE
00:37:07.56\00:37:10.93
WILL BE THE 144,000 THAT WILL
LIVE AT THE SIDE OF GOD, THEY
-HAVE BECOME PERFECTED THROUGH
00:37:10.93\00:37:19.40
THE GRACE OF JESUS
CHRIST, 144,000 PEOPLE.
00:37:19.40\00:37:23.07
>> UH-HUH. >> YOU
WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE
00:37:23.07\00:37:27.58
END. >> YEAH.
00:37:27.58\00:37:28.31
LET ME JUST READ
THIS. I LOVE THIS PASSAGE.
00:37:28.31\00:37:31.51
THIS IS SOMETHING TO
ENCOURAGE THOSE OF YOU AT HOME.
00:37:31.51\00:37:38.72
MICAH 7:8-9, AND IT SAYS DO NOT
REJOICE OVER ME MY ENEMY, WHEN I
00:37:38.72\00:37:45.56
FALL, I WILL ARISE. WHEN
I SIT IN DARKNESS, THE LORD
00:37:45.56\00:37:49.00
WILL BE A LIGHT TO ME. >> YES.
00:37:49.00\00:37:52.20
>> I WILL BEAR THE INDIGNATION
OF THE LORD BECAUSE I HAVE
00:37:52.20\00:37:57.87
SINNED AGAINST HIM UNTIL
HE PLEADS MY CASE AND EXECUTES
00:37:57.87\00:38:02.64
JUSTICE FOR ME. JESUS
IS OUR ADVOCATE WHO IS
00:38:02.64\00:38:05.91
PLEADING OUR CASE. HE
WILL BRING ME FORTH IN THE
00:38:05.91\00:38:10.52
LIGHT AND I WILL
SEE HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS.
00:38:10.52\00:38:13.89
>> AMEN. >> AMEN.
00:38:13.89\00:38:15.16
>> I'M GOING TO SAY -- BECAUSE I
HAVE TALKED TOO LONG, I DO WANT
00:38:15.16\00:38:20.96
TO COME BACK AND DO ANOTHER
SCRIPTURE, BUT LET ME PASS THIS
00:38:20.96\00:38:25.47
OVER TO YOU BEFORE YOU EXPLODE.
>> ONE QUICK SECOND, PASTOR,
00:38:25.47\00:38:30.07
BECAUSE I DID TEASE WITH THE
IDEA THAT WHAT IS IT THAT ELLEN
00:38:30.07\00:38:36.68
WHITE TELLS US IS THE MOST
IMPOSSIBLE TO DIAGNOSE, AND THAT
00:38:36.68\00:38:42.48
IS PRIE. FOR MANY
OF US, IT IS OUR PRIDE
00:38:42.48\00:38:46.02
THAT KEEPS US INSUBORDINATE
T THE LOVE OF CHRIST.
00:38:46.02\00:38:50.49
IT KEEPS US FROM SURRENDERING
AND REALIZING WE CANNOT ADD TO
00:38:50.49\00:38:55.56
OUR SALVATION. WE
CAN ONLY WALK IN THE
00:38:55.56\00:38:58.03
SALVATION THAT
IS PROVIDED FOR US.
00:38:58.03\00:39:00.37
>> AMEN. >>
PASTOR SAID THIS, AND I
00:39:00.37\00:39:02.50
THOUGHT IT WAS VERY, VERY
IMPORTANT, THAT ONE OF THE
00:39:02.50\00:39:06.24
DOINGS IS MAKING
THE RIGHT DECISIONS.
00:39:06.24\00:39:10.45
IN PANAMA THERE IS A PLACE WE
GO SOMETIMES ON SATURDAY NIGHT,
00:39:10.45\00:39:17.52
BECAUSE THEY MAKE CRISPY FRENCH
FRIES NOT BY FRYING THEM BUT
00:39:17.52\00:39:26.03
THROUGH HOT AIR.
IT'S CALLED JAVA JUICE.
00:39:26.03\00:39:34.40
BUT THEY ALSO SERVE
THERE A TRIPLE HAMBURGER.
00:39:34.40\00:39:37.31
YOU CAN GO FOR THE FRIES, OR YOU
CAN GO FOR A HAMBURGER THAT IS
00:39:37.31\00:39:43.68
ABOUT THAT THICK. >>
HEART ATTACK IN THE MAKING.
00:39:43.68\00:39:46.28
>> YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST TAKE
THE GREASE AND JUST SLATHER IT
00:39:46.28\00:39:52.22
ON YOUR VEINS. YOU
HAVE GOT TO EAT IT WITH A
00:39:52.22\00:39:57.29
FOLK. PASTOR JOHN
WE CAN GET AIR-FRIED
00:39:57.29\00:40:02.10
FRENCH FRIES OR THE HAMBURGER.
ONE OF THE DECENT DECISIONS, THE
00:40:02.10\00:40:07.57
OTHER IS JUST A BAD DECISION
THAT IS GOING TO HASTEN YOU TO
00:40:07.57\00:40:11.37
YOUR GRAVE.
THAT'S PART OF THE WORKS.
00:40:11.37\00:40:14.74
MAKING GOD BLESS GOOD DECISIONS
THAT ARE FOR YOU, SO THAT YOU
00:40:14.74\00:40:18.61
KEEP YOUR MIND OPEN AND YOUR
HEART OPEN, AND I'M GOING TO
00:40:18.61\00:40:21.75
READ SOMETHING REAL
FAST, AND THEN I'M DONE.
00:40:21.75\00:40:24.22
THE APPETITE AND PASSIONS SHOULD
BE RESTRICTED AND UNDER THE
00:40:24.22\00:40:28.89
CONTROL OF ENLIGHTENED CONSCIOUS
THAT THE INTELLECT MAY BE
00:40:28.89\00:40:37.20
PERCEIVED, SO THAT THE WORKING
OF SATAN AND HIS SNARES MAY NOT
00:40:37.20\00:40:41.17
BE INTERPRETED TO
BE THE PROVINCE OF GOD.
00:40:41.17\00:40:44.91
SO WHAT YOU EAT, WHAT YOU PUT IN
YOUR BODY, HAS A GREAT EFFECT AS
00:40:44.91\00:40:49.44
YOU ALLUDED TO EARLIER, SHELLEY
ON THE FIRST HALF ON YOUR
00:40:49.44\00:40:54.35
SPIRITUALITY. YOU
CAN'T PUT JUNK IN YOUR BODY,
00:40:54.35\00:40:57.75
AND EXPECT TO BE A
GOOD SERVANT OF GOD.
00:40:57.75\00:41:02.66
YOU ARE DESTROYING YOUR BODY,
TEARING DOWN THE TEMPLE, AND YOU
00:41:02.66\00:41:07.13
CANNOT RECEIVE
THE BLESSINGS OF GOD.
00:41:07.13\00:41:13.44
MANY ARE NOT WILLING TO ENDURE
TOIL, PRIVATION, AND SELF DENIAL
00:41:13.44\00:41:21.01
AS DID OUR REDEEMER. IT
IS THROUGH OBEDIENCE AND
00:41:21.01\00:41:26.95
CONTINUAL EFFORT THAT WE SHALL
OVERCOME AS CHRIST OVERCAME.
00:41:26.95\00:41:31.32
>> AMEN. >> NOW
LET ME GET TO MY POINT.
00:41:31.32\00:41:36.39
>> THIS IS THE
PERFECT THING, THOUGH.
00:41:36.39\00:41:38.59
HERE IS A PROMISE FOR SOMEBODY
AT HOME TO HOLD ON TO ROMANS
00:41:38.59\00:41:44.20
13:14, PUT ON THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST AND MAKE NO PROVISIONS
00:41:44.20\00:41:47.90
FOR THE FLESH TO
FULFILL IT'S LUSTS.
00:41:47.90\00:41:50.97
>> AMEN. >> SO IF
YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
00:41:50.97\00:41:54.21
SMOKING, QUIT BUYING CIGARETTES.
IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM EATING ICE
00:41:54.21\00:41:59.78
CREAM, QUIT BUYING THAT STUFF.
BECAUSE THAT'S ONE OF THE WAYS
00:41:59.78\00:42:03.52
YOU ARE GOING TO
HAVE TO BE AN OVERCOMER.
00:42:03.52\00:42:07.32
>> AND YOU MAY HAVE TO SAY
GOOD-BYE TO FRIENDS WHO DO.
00:42:07.32\00:42:12.03
>> UH-HUH. >> MY DEAR PASTOR.
00:42:12.03\00:42:14.20
>> ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAVE
BEEN POINTING OUT, AND I WANT TO
00:42:14.20\00:42:18.03
MAKE THIS CLEAR. WE
CAN'T EVEN MAKE RIGHT
00:42:18.03\00:42:21.00
CHOICES -- >> AMEN.
00:42:21.00\00:42:22.97
>> -- WITHOUT GOD'S
LEADERSHIP. >> AMEN.
00:42:22.97\00:42:25.94
>> I'M GOING TO
READ A QUOTE HERE.
00:42:25.94\00:42:30.08
I WANT TO READ A QUOTE.
THIS IS A POWERFUL QUOTE IN THE
00:42:30.08\00:42:36.42
BOOK TEMPERANCE. GOD
HAS GIVEN US THE POWER OF
00:42:36.42\00:42:39.69
CHOICE. IT IS OURS TO EXERCISE.
00:42:39.69\00:42:42.86
FOLLOW THIS. WE
CANNOT CHANGE OUR HEARTS.
00:42:42.86\00:42:46.83
WE CANNOT CONTROL OUR THOUGHTS.
OUR IMPULSES, OUR AFFECTIONS.
00:42:46.83\00:42:52.27
WE CANNOT MAKE YOURSELVES
PURE, FIT FOR GOD'S SERVICE.
00:42:52.27\00:42:57.31
BUT WE CAN CHOOSE TO SERVE
GOD. WE CAN GIVE HIM OUR WILL.
00:42:57.31\00:43:01.88
>> YES. >> THEN
HE WILL WORK IN US TO
00:43:01.88\00:43:04.48
WILL AND TO DO
ACCORDING TO HIS GOOD PLEASURE.
00:43:04.48\00:43:08.12
THUS, OUR WHOLE NATURE WILL
BE BROUGHT UNDER THE CONTROL OF
00:43:08.12\00:43:11.92
CHRIST. NOW I
WANT TO SHOW YOU THIS
00:43:11.92\00:43:13.69
CONTROL. LET'S
LOOK AT THE CONTROL.
00:43:13.69\00:43:16.46
EVERYBODY GO WITH
ME TO ROMANS 7:17.
00:43:16.46\00:43:19.36
YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE SOMETHING
THAT THE LORD DROPPED IN MY
00:43:19.36\00:43:23.26
HEAD -- HE DROPPED IT IN A FEW
MONTHS AGO, AND I CAN'T GET RID
00:43:23.26\00:43:28.54
OF IT, AND IT HAS BECOME AN
ENCOURAGING POINT TO ME TO KNOW
00:43:28.54\00:43:33.58
THAT ALL I HAE TO DO IS
TO DECIDE TO GIVE MY WILL TO
00:43:33.58\00:43:37.81
CHRIST, AND HE -- HE
TAKES OVER. THIS IS HUGE.
00:43:37.81\00:43:41.82
FIRST WE ARE GOING TO
START WITH ROMANS 7:17.
00:43:41.82\00:43:46.19
THIS IS PAUL
AFTER HIS CONVERSION.
00:43:46.19\00:43:48.22
HE SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING IN
HIS LIFE, THE LISTENER, OR THE
00:43:48.22\00:43:51.86
VIEWER IS SEEING THAT THERE ARE
THINGS HAPPENING THERE HIS OR
00:43:51.86\00:43:55.13
HER LIFE THAT THEY DON'T LIKE.
AND THEY ARE WONDERING WHY.
00:43:55.13\00:43:58.17
THE MOMENT YOU YIELD IN
ONE DIRECTION OR THE OTHER, YOU
00:43:58.17\00:44:02.44
BECOME A SLOOIF SLAVE TO
THE RIGHTEOUSNESS LEADING TO
00:44:02.44\00:44:07.88
SALVATION, OR THE SIN
LEADING TO DESTRUCTION.
00:44:07.88\00:44:11.01
THE MOMENT YOU CHOOSE WHICH
WAY TO GO, YOU ARE NO LONGER IN
00:44:11.01\00:44:15.25
-CONTROL. THE MOMENT YOU CHOOSE
WHO YOU MASTER IS, YOU ARE NO
00:44:15.25\00:44:19.09
LONGER IN CONTROL. >> UH-HUH.
00:44:19.09\00:44:20.06
>> SO IT'S EITHER YOU BEING
CONTROLLED BY SATAN OR THE LORD.
00:44:20.06\00:44:23.89
>> AND YOU HAVE
TO MAKE A CHOICE.
00:44:23.89\00:44:26.83
CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY
WHOM YOU ARE GOING TO SERVE.
00:44:26.83\00:44:29.33
WHEN YOU CHOOSE THAT, IF YOU
CHOOSE THE DEVIL, LET'S START
00:44:29.33\00:44:33.20
THERE ROMANS 7:17, IF YOU CHOOSE
NOT TO YIELD TO CHRIST THIS
00:44:33.20\00:44:38.11
MORNING OR TODY, HERE
IS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
00:44:38.11\00:44:41.31
PAUL SAYS IN VERSE 17 OF ROMANS
7, SPEAKING ABOUT SIN HE SAW IN
00:44:41.31\00:44:46.51
HIS LIFE HE DIDN'T LIKE, HE
SAYS BUT NOW IT IS NO LONGER
00:44:46.51\00:44:51.05
I -- THAT'S THE FIRST CATEGORY.
IT IS NO LONGER I -- THE NEXT
00:44:51.05\00:44:55.42
SECTION WHO DO IT. THE
THIRD SECTION, BUT SIN.
00:44:55.42\00:45:00.90
THE FOURTH
SECTION, THAT DWELLS IN ME.
00:45:00.90\00:45:04.23
NOTICE THESE ARE FOUR
SECTIONS. IT IS NO LONGER I.
00:45:04.23\00:45:08.84
SO WHO IS DOING IT?->>
SIN. >> WHO IS DOING IT?
00:45:08.84\00:45:13.48
>> OR SATAN. >> SIN.
00:45:13.48\00:45:16.08
IT NOW MAKES US SLAVES
AND COMPLETELY CONTROL US.
00:45:16.08\00:45:21.38
ONCE YOU ARE SHACKLED BY THE
SLAVE MASTER YOU HAVE NO LONGER
00:45:21.38\00:45:24.89
HAVE THE POWER TO DETERMINE
WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO.
00:45:24.89\00:45:28.79
AND THE POWER IS HUGE. AND
PAUL SAYS IT IS NO LONGER I
00:45:28.79\00:45:34.30
WHO DO IT. NOW
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE
00:45:34.30\00:45:41.84
DELIVERANCE. NOW GO
TO GA LAY THANES 20:20.
00:45:41.84\00:45:46.68
THIS IS POWERFUL. IT
IS ALMOST WORD FOR WORD
00:45:46.68\00:45:50.91
COMPARISON. >> YES, SIR.
00:45:50.91\00:45:52.18
TRUE. >> AND
WHEN I SAW IT, I SAID
00:45:52.18\00:45:55.12
LORD HOW COULD I READ MY
BIBLE ALL MY LIFE AND MISS IT.
00:45:55.12\00:46:00.22
FIRST COMPARISON WAS WHAT SIN
DOES TO YOU WHEN YOU YIELD TO
00:46:00.22\00:46:03.66
IT, YOU ARE NO
LONGER IN CONTROL.
00:46:03.66\00:46:05.69
BUT WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU YIELD TO CHRIST?
00:46:05.69\00:46:10.17
GALATIANS 2:20, I'M READING
THE NEW KING JAMES VERSION.
00:46:10.17\00:46:16.34
IT IS NO LONGER I, THE SAME
EXACT ORDER OF WORDS -- IT IS NO
00:46:16.34\00:46:21.64
LONGER I -- ONCE YOU
CRUCIFY YOU, JESUS TAKES OVER.
00:46:21.64\00:46:25.95
YOU CAN'T EVEN TAKE CREDIT
FOR THE GOOD IN YOUR LIFE.
00:46:25.95\00:46:28.52
LET'S GO ON. THAT'S
THE FIRST SECTION AS THE
00:46:28.52\00:46:31.22
FIRST SECTION IS IT IS NO LONG I
IN ROMANS, AND GALATIANS, IT IS
00:46:31.22\00:46:40.80
NO LONGER I. IT IS
NO LONGER I WHO LIVE.
00:46:40.80\00:46:44.67
NOTICE THE
COMPARISON. WHO DO IT, WHO LIVE.
00:46:44.67\00:46:49.87
THIRD COMPARISON,
IN ROMANS, BUT SIN.
00:46:49.87\00:46:52.41
IN GALATIANS 2:20. >> AMEN.
00:46:52.41\00:47:01.58
>> SO WHO IS DOING IT?
IT AIN'T YOU EITHER WAY.
00:47:01.58\00:47:05.95
SO WHAT DID YOU DO?
YOU DECIDED TO YIELD.
00:47:05.95\00:47:08.62
I WANT TO LIGHTEN
YOUR BURDEN TONIGHT.
00:47:08.62\00:47:12.23
>> YEAH. >> I DON'T
WANT YOU TO THINK YOU
00:47:12.23\00:47:14.83
ARE GOING TO GET INTO AN
HYPEREXERCISE WALK TO WORK THIS
00:47:14.83\00:47:19.60
OUT. NO, YOU HAVE TO YIELD.
00:47:19.60\00:47:21.70
THAT'S WHN CHRIST TAKES OVER.
THAT IS WHERE SHELLEY HAS SAID
00:47:21.70\00:47:25.34
IT, ALL OF US HAVE
SAID IT, THAT IT IS GOD.
00:47:25.34\00:47:33.01
AND THE LAST SECTION IN ROMANS
7:17 -- I KNOW I SHOULD HAVE
00:47:33.01\00:47:37.85
TAKEN OUT THESE RETAINERS.
THE LAST SECTION IN ROMANS 7:17
00:47:37.85\00:47:43.89
WAS THAT DWELLS IN ME.
THE LAST SECTION IN GALATIANS,
00:47:43.89\00:47:52.33
WHO LIVES IN ME.
CHRIST LIVES WHEN I CHOOSE THE
00:47:52.33\00:47:55.67
RIGHT PATH. >> AMEN.
00:47:55.67\00:47:57.07
>> SO WHEN I SAW THOSE FOUR
COMPARISONS, THE REFLECTION IS
00:47:57.07\00:48:03.04
AMAZING. AND IN
BOTH CASES, IT SANT YOU.
00:48:03.04\00:48:07.02
IT'S NOT YOU WHO IS WORKING OUT.
IT IS NOT YOU WHO IS -- HERE IS
00:48:07.02\00:48:11.95
HOW I SAID IT -- MATTER OF FACT
I DID THIS LAST NIGHT IN OUR
00:48:11.95\00:48:15.86
BIBLE STUDY, WHEN SIN COMES IN,
YOU'LL DO WHAT YOU EVER BELIEVED
00:48:15.86\00:48:21.36
YOU WOULD DO. WHEN
SIN COMES IN, YOU WILL DO
00:48:21.36\00:48:26.03
WHAT YOU NEVER PHAT -- FATHOMED
WHAT YOU COULD AND ALL YOU HAVE
00:48:26.03\00:48:36.28
GOT TO DO TO FREE YOURSELF FROM
THE FRUSTRATION OF HOW TO BE
00:48:36.28\00:48:40.38
RIGHTEOUS IS SIMPLY YIELD.
WHEN YOU YIELD A POWER COMES IN.
00:48:40.38\00:48:46.25
WHEN YOU YIELD
LOOK WHAT HAPPENS.
00:48:46.25\00:48:48.12
THIS QUOTE IS
POWERFUL. HERE IT IS.
00:48:48.12\00:48:52.93
OKAY. WOW.
00:48:52.93\00:48:53.50
LORD HAVE MERCY. HERE IT IS.
00:48:53.50\00:48:55.90
OKAY. IT WAS RIGHT HERE.
00:48:55.90\00:48:57.07
I GOT IT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:48:57.07\00:48:59.00
>> HERE IT IS.
EDUCATION PAGE 289.
00:48:59.00\00:49:02.67
EDUCATION PAGE 289. THE
WILL IS THE GOVERNING POWER
00:49:02.67\00:49:05.77
IN THE NATURE OF MAN, THE POWER
OF DECISION, DECIION OR CHOICE.
00:49:05.77\00:49:09.81
EVERY HUMAN BEING POSSESSED OF
REASON HAS POWER TO CHOOSE THE
00:49:09.81\00:49:14.58
RIGHT, AND EVERY EXPERIENCE OF
LIFE GOD'S WORD TO US IS CHOOSE
00:49:14.58\00:49:21.66
YOU TO SAY WHOM YOU
WILL SERVE. >> AMEN.
00:49:21.66\00:49:24.59
>> AMEN. >> HERE IS
HOW IT ENDS, EVERYONE
00:49:24.59\00:49:28.83
WILL PLACE HIS WILL ON THE SIDE
OF GOD, MAY CHOOSE TO OBEY HIM,
00:49:28.83\00:49:33.67
AND THUS LINKING
HIMSELF WITH DIVINE AGENCIES.
00:49:33.67\00:49:38.97
HE MAY STAND WHERE NOTHING
CAN FORCE HIM TO DO EVIL.
00:49:38.97\00:49:41.81
>> AMEN. >> AMEN.
00:49:41.81\00:49:43.31
>> WHEN YOU ARE LINKED TO
CHRIST, HE IS THE ONE DOING IT.
00:49:43.31\00:49:46.92
>> AMEN. >> AND HE
DOESN'T DO EVIL, AND
00:49:46.92\00:49:50.35
SO SINCE IT
AINT YOU, YOU GET IT?
00:49:50.35\00:49:52.55
>> GOT IT. >> SINCE
YOU ARE NOT DOING IT,
00:49:52.55\00:49:54.86
HE IS NOT DOING EVIL, SO
THEREFORE, HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS
00:49:54.86\00:49:58.86
NOW REVEALED IN YOU. >> AMEN.
00:49:58.86\00:50:00.86
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> THAT'S NOW.
00:50:00.86\00:50:03.50
NOT EVEN IN THE FUTURE. >> AMEN.
00:50:03.50\00:50:06.17
>> CAN I GRAB TWO MINUTES.
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL, EVERYTHING
00:50:06.17\00:50:09.50
THAT HAS BEEN SAID, BUT WE HAVE
BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE POWER TO
00:50:09.50\00:50:14.21
OVERCOME. WE KNOW
IT IS GOD WHO IS GOING
00:50:14.21\00:50:16.31
TO DO THE WORK. IT
IS CHRIST LIVING IN US,
00:50:16.31\00:50:20.02
THROUGH -- BY FAITH
THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:50:20.02\00:50:22.82
THAT'S WHERE WE GET THE POWER.
WE TALKED ABOUT THE POWER OF
00:50:22.82\00:50:26.82
PRAYER IN STAYING CONNECTED WITH
THE LORD, BUT WE REALLY HAVEN'T
00:50:26.82\00:50:30.43
MENTIONED THE POWER OF THE WORD,
AND I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE
00:50:30.43\00:50:34.30
THAT WE GET THAT IN.
BECAUSE IF YOU WANT TO BE AN
00:50:34.30\00:50:38.33
OVERCOMER, THEN YOU NEED
TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST.
00:50:38.33\00:50:41.77
YOU NEED TO GET THIS WORD IN
YOU, BECAUSE THIS WORD IS LIVING
00:50:41.77\00:50:44.64
AND ACTING, AND IT IS SHARPER
THAN ANY TWO-EDGE SWORD, AND IT
00:50:44.64\00:50:50.01
WILL GET TO THE POINT THERE'S
THINGS -- I'LL PICK UP THE WORD,
00:50:50.01\00:50:53.68
AND I'M READING SOMETHING,
READING, READING, AND ALL OF A
00:50:53.68\00:50:57.59
SUDDEN IT'S LIKE,
OH, I FORGOT ABOUT THIS.
00:50:57.59\00:51:00.89
AND GOD WILL HELP YOU.
BUT THROUGH THE POWER OF THE
00:51:00.89\00:51:05.76
HOLY SPIRIT HE IS
APPLYING THE WORD TO MY HEART.
00:51:05.76\00:51:08.86
BUT JAMES 1:21 SAYS THE WORD
OF GOD WHEN IT IS -- HE SAYS LAY
00:51:08.86\00:51:14.60
ASIDE ALL FILTHINESS AND ACCEPT
THE WORD WHICH IMPLANTED IN YOUR
00:51:14.60\00:51:23.65
HEART HAS THE
POWER TO SAVE YOUR SOUL.
00:51:23.65\00:51:26.45
AND I JUST WANTED TO READ 2
PETER 1:3, BECAUSE THIS IS ONE
00:51:26.45\00:51:30.89
OF MY FAVORITES. IT
SAYS, HIS DIVINE POWER,
00:51:30.89\00:51:36.22
SPEAKING OF GOD, AS GIVEN TO
US, ALL THINGS -- NOT JUST A FEW
00:51:36.22\00:51:42.00
THINGS -- ALL THINGS THAT
PERTAIN TO LIFE AND GODLINESS,
00:51:42.00\00:51:46.80
THROUGH THE IMAGINE OF HIM
WHO CALLED US BY HIS GLORY AND
00:51:46.80\00:51:51.04
VIRTUE. I WHICH, BY
HIS GLORY AND VIRTUE
00:51:51.04\00:51:54.08
HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO US
EXCEEDINGLY GREAT AND PRECIOUS
00:51:54.08\00:52:00.62
PROMISES, AND ALL OF THOSE
PROMISES ARE RESINATED THROUGH
00:52:00.62\00:52:06.15
CHRIST JESUS, THAT THROUGH
THESE -- THROUGH THE PROMISES,
00:52:06.15\00:52:09.59
YOU MAY BE PARTAKERS OF THE
DIVINE NATURE, HAVING ESCAPED
00:52:09.59\00:52:14.46
THE CORRUPTION THAT IS
IN THE WORLD THROUGH LUST.
00:52:14.46\00:52:17.97
SO IT IS AS WE LET THIS WORD
-pWASH OVER US, THE WASHING OF
THE WORD, THAT GOD WILL RENEW
00:52:17.97\00:52:27.88
OUR MINDS, AND HE DOES SOMETHING
TO US, BUT I DO WANT TO ADD
00:52:27.88\00:52:32.91
THIS, BECAUSE HEE HE JUST GOT
THROUGH SAYING, PAUL TOLD THE
00:52:32.91\00:52:38.65
PHILLIPIANS, GOD HAS
GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED
00:52:38.65\00:52:41.79
FOR -- PERTAINING
TO LIFE AND GODLINESS.
00:52:41.79\00:52:45.59
>> AMEN. >> BUT
NOW LISTEN TO THIS, AND
00:52:45.59\00:52:48.20
VICKY, I HOPE YOU ARE STILL
LISTENING, BUT ALSO FOR THIS
00:52:48.20\00:52:52.93
VERY REASON, BECAUSE GOD HAS
GIVEN YOU ALL OF THIS, AND YOU
00:52:52.93\00:52:57.47
ARE PARTAKERS IN THE DIVINE
NATURE, HERE IS THE WORK FOR YOU
00:52:57.47\00:53:03.04
TO DO,ED A TO YOUR FAITH,
VIRTUE, TO VIRTUE, KNOWLEDGE, TO
00:53:03.04\00:53:09.55
KNOWLEDGE, SELF-CONTROL, SO
SELF-CONTROL, PERSEVERANCE, TO
00:53:09.55\00:53:15.69
PERSEVERANCE, GODLINESS TO
BROTHERLY KINDNESS TO LOVE, SO
00:53:15.69\00:53:20.56
IF THESE THINGS ABOUND YOU WILL
BE NEITHER BARRON NOR UNFRUITFUL
00:53:20.56\00:53:27.44
IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF JESUS CHRIST
BUT HE WHO LACKS THESE THINGS IS
00:53:27.44\00:53:35.31
SHORT SIDED EVEN TO BLINDNESS
AND HAS FORGOTTEN THAT HE WAS
00:53:35.31\00:53:40.02
CLEANSED FROM HIS
OLD SINS. >> AMEN.
00:53:40.02\00:53:42.15
>> POWERFUL. >> YEAH.
00:53:42.15\00:53:44.29
>> JUST THREE LITTLE THINGS.
HOW DID CHRIST OVERCOME IN HE
00:53:44.29\00:53:48.06
OVERCAME BY WHAT? BY THE WORD.
00:53:48.06\00:53:50.13
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> THE WORD.
00:53:50.13\00:53:55.03
MATTHEW 4:7 AND ALSO VERSE
10, WE OVERCAME BY THE WORD.
00:53:55.03\00:54:01.64
PSALMS 17:4, BY THE WORD OF MY
LIPS I HAVE KEPT ME FROM THE KAT
00:54:01.64\00:54:05.87
OF THE DESTROYER. AND
PSALMS 119:11, BY WORD I
00:54:05.87\00:54:13.65
HAVE HID IN MY HEART THAT
I MIGHT NOT SIN AGAIN AGAINST
00:54:13.65\00:54:17.55
THREE. SO THE WORD IS POWERFUL.
00:54:17.55\00:54:19.42
>> AMEN. >> IT
WILL HELP US WHEN EVIL
00:54:19.42\00:54:22.62
COMES OUR WAY. >> AMEN.
00:54:22.62\00:54:24.13
I WANTED TO TOSS IN PAUL'S WOD
TO TITUS, IN TITUS 2:5, NOT BY
00:54:24.13\00:54:32.57
WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH WE
HAVE DONE, BUT ACCORDING TO HIS
00:54:32.57\00:54:37.24
MERCY HE SAVED US, THROUGH
THE WASHING OF REGENERATION, AND
00:54:37.24\00:54:43.18
RENEWING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHOM
HE POURED OUT ON US ABUNDANTLY,
00:54:43.18\00:54:48.98
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR SAVIOR,
THAT HAVING BEEN JUSTIFIED BY
00:54:48.98\00:54:54.09
GRACE, WE SHOULD BECOME HEIRS
ACCORDING TO THE HOPE OF ETERNAL
00:54:54.09\00:54:58.33
LIFE. >> AMEN.
00:54:58.33\00:54:59.43
>> IT'S ALL ABOUT CHRIST AND
HIS HOLY SPIRIT DWELLING IN US.
00:54:59.43\00:55:04.97
QUICKLY, A LITTLE CLOSING
THOUGHT FROM EACH OF YOU.
00:55:04.97\00:55:08.47
>> THE WORD OF GOD IS LIKE GOOD
INGREDIENTS IN HOME MADE BREAD.
00:55:08.47\00:55:13.78
YOU CAN PUT ALL OF THE
INGREDIENTS IN THERE, BUT IF YOU
00:55:13.78\00:55:16.78
DON'T WORK THEM IN, IT'S
NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING.
00:55:16.78\00:55:19.38
>> AMEN. >> THE
WORD OF GOD EFFECTIVELY
00:55:19.38\00:55:24.72
WORKS IN THOSE WHO BELIEVE.
IT'S NOT LITERATURE, IT'S THE
00:55:24.72\00:55:28.56
LIVING WORD OF GOD. >> AMEN.
00:55:28.56\00:55:30.36
>> GET THE WORD OF
GOD INTO YOUR DAILY DIET.
00:55:30.36\00:55:34.86
LET IT BE THE FIRST THING YOU DO
IN THE MORNING, AND IT WILL WORK
00:55:34.86\00:55:38.17
IN YOU. >> AMEN.
00:55:38.17\00:55:39.87
I WOULD LIKE TO REPEAT THE SAME
PROMISE THAT I STARTED OFF WITH
00:55:39.87\00:55:44.04
IN THE FIRST HOUR, AND THAT
IS THAT CHRIST IS OUR GUARANTOR,
00:55:44.04\00:55:51.45
AND HE IS THE ONE THAT IS
GOING TO WORK IT OUT IN US.
00:55:51.45\00:55:58.32
1 THESSALONIANS 25 AND 24,
MAY YOUR WHOLE SPIRIT, SOUL, AND
00:55:58.32\00:56:04.96
BODY BE PRESERVED BLAELESS
AT THE COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS
00:56:04.96\00:56:09.90
CHRIST. HE WHO
CALLS YOU IS FAITHFUL WHO
00:56:09.90\00:56:11.97
WILL ALSO DO IT. >> AMEN.
00:56:11.97\00:56:16.04
HEBREWS 4:15, CHRIST [
INAUDIBLE ] AT ALL POINTS
00:56:16.04\00:56:19.81
SIMPLY WITHOUT SIN. >>
PRAISE THE LORD, AND PRAISE
00:56:19.81\00:56:22.11
THE LORD. I WANT TO CLOSE WITH 2
