| Mike Signorelli - Jesus's Most Dangerous Sermon | March 18, 2026
  • - all the people that you think are losing when the kingdom
  • 00:00:00.726 --> 00:00:03.896
  • Enters, they're the ones who win.
  • 00:00:03.896 --> 00:00:06.231
  • All the people that you think are weak,
  • 00:00:06.231 --> 00:00:08.100
  • When the kingdom enters, they're powerful.
  • 00:00:08.100 --> 00:00:10.602
  • All the people that you think are cursed when the kingdom
  • 00:00:10.602 --> 00:00:13.439
  • Comes, those people are actually blessed
  • 00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:16.075
  • And the curse is broken.
  • 00:00:16.075 --> 00:00:17.409
  • I don't know about you.
  • 00:00:17.409 --> 00:00:19.011
  • You might need to take a five second praise break right now.
  • 00:00:19.011 --> 00:00:21.513
  • Because when the kingdom entered my life, it broke the curse
  • 00:00:21.513 --> 00:00:25.150
  • Of alcoholism, the curse of depression and suicide.
  • 00:00:25.150 --> 00:00:28.787
  • I don't know about you,
  • 00:00:28.787 --> 00:00:30.289
  • But independent of the kingdom, there was no hope for me.
  • 00:00:30.289 --> 00:00:33.058
  • There was no counseling, no therapy, no medication.
  • 00:00:33.058 --> 00:00:36.195
  • There was nothing that could save me except
  • 00:00:36.195 --> 00:00:38.263
  • For jesus christ.
  • 00:00:38.263 --> 00:00:39.765
  • He took a lowly sinner like me
  • 00:00:39.765 --> 00:00:42.134
  • And raised me up, picked me up out of the miy clay,
  • 00:00:42.134 --> 00:00:45.671
  • And put my feet on a solid foundation.
  • 00:00:45.671 --> 00:00:48.507
  • And that's why i get louder in a nightclub on sunday morning
  • 00:00:48.507 --> 00:00:52.544
  • Than i used to get loud on a saturday night
  • 00:00:52.544 --> 00:00:55.581
  • Because i know who saved me.
  • 00:00:55.581 --> 00:00:57.683
  • And don't you dare judge my worship
  • 00:00:57.683 --> 00:01:00.319
  • Until you know my warfare.
  • 00:01:00.319 --> 00:01:03.422
  • This path is already narrow
  • 00:01:04.022 --> 00:01:06.058
  • And we will forge forward, making no excuse
  • 00:01:06.058 --> 00:01:08.994
  • For why we can live uncompromised in this generation.
  • 00:01:08.994 --> 00:01:12.531
  • Lock in, hit me a hundred people who will walk
  • 00:01:12.531 --> 00:01:16.335
  • That narrow road
  • 00:01:16.335 --> 00:01:17.736
  • And say, i may have some things in my family,
  • 00:01:17.736 --> 00:01:21.106
  • But i where it was out.
  • 00:01:21.106 --> 00:01:26.044
  • So we went from bethlehem, we're retracing the journey
  • 00:01:27.146 --> 00:01:29.948
  • Of jesus from bethlehem to nazareth
  • 00:01:29.948 --> 00:01:32.684
  • And from nazareth to capernaum.
  • 00:01:32.684 --> 00:01:34.953
  • And now in capernaum, jesus would've summited this mountain.
  • 00:01:34.953 --> 00:01:38.624
  • But i wanna start with matthew chapter five, verse one.
  • 00:01:38.624 --> 00:01:41.660
  • It says, seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain
  • 00:01:41.660 --> 00:01:44.963
  • And he sat down, his disciples came to him.
  • 00:01:44.963 --> 00:01:48.100
  • So i don't want you to miss this v one church.
  • 00:01:48.100 --> 00:01:51.069
  • Jesus didn't start his ministry in a palace.
  • 00:01:51.069 --> 00:01:54.039
  • Jesus didn't start his ministry in washington dc i mean
  • 00:01:55.107 --> 00:01:58.277
  • Rome, this was not a political thing.
  • 00:01:58.277 --> 00:02:01.813
  • This, this was not, this was not a, a natural royal family.
  • 00:02:01.813 --> 00:02:06.752
  • He didn't start in the temple courts,
  • 00:02:06.752 --> 00:02:08.787
  • Which would be the equivalency of our local church.
  • 00:02:08.787 --> 00:02:11.523
  • He actually went up on a mountain
  • 00:02:11.523 --> 00:02:13.492
  • And this inaugurates the coming of a kingdom.
  • 00:02:13.492 --> 00:02:16.862
  • And the constitution of
  • 00:02:16.862 --> 00:02:18.497
  • That kingdom was called the beatitudes.
  • 00:02:18.497 --> 00:02:21.166
  • Because every kingdom has a constitution.
  • 00:02:21.166 --> 00:02:24.069
  • And you hear a lot of soft preachers talking
  • 00:02:24.069 --> 00:02:26.271
  • About the beatitudes.
  • 00:02:26.271 --> 00:02:27.539
  • I'm gonna preach it from the original greek
  • 00:02:27.539 --> 00:02:29.942
  • And break it open for you.
  • 00:02:29.942 --> 00:02:31.276
  • Is that all right? because a lot
  • 00:02:31.276 --> 00:02:33.712
  • Of people have preached this from an american context
  • 00:02:33.712 --> 00:02:37.115
  • And deleted the power.
  • 00:02:37.115 --> 00:02:38.951
  • It's, and that's why i'm saying i'm not here
  • 00:02:38.951 --> 00:02:40.819
  • To preach mike signorelli pre,
  • 00:02:40.819 --> 00:02:42.688
  • I'm gonna actually get outta the way
  • 00:02:42.688 --> 00:02:44.056
  • And we're, i'm gonna just let jesus preach.
  • 00:02:44.056 --> 00:02:46.225
  • 'cause this sermon that he preached from that mountaintop,
  • 00:02:46.225 --> 00:02:49.528
  • It was li it was one of the most incredible sermons ever.
  • 00:02:49.528 --> 00:02:52.931
  • But it really is the constitution of the kingdom.
  • 00:02:52.931 --> 00:02:55.968
  • And so he went up on a mountain.
  • 00:02:55.968 --> 00:02:57.269
  • Now, these jewish first century listeners,
  • 00:02:57.269 --> 00:03:00.772
  • They would've watched him go up the mountain.
  • 00:03:00.772 --> 00:03:02.441
  • This is what they would've thought is moses met
  • 00:03:02.441 --> 00:03:05.644
  • God on sinai.
  • 00:03:05.644 --> 00:03:07.813
  • He would up the mountain to meet god.
  • 00:03:07.813 --> 00:03:10.282
  • Elijah goes up the mountain of carmel to meet god.
  • 00:03:10.282 --> 00:03:15.587
  • And then abraham goes up the mountain to meet god at mariah.
  • 00:03:16.755 --> 00:03:20.125
  • So you, you have these three distinct mountains.
  • 00:03:20.125 --> 00:03:23.195
  • And so they would be well acquainted with these stories.
  • 00:03:23.195 --> 00:03:26.131
  • So when they see jesus now go up on this mountain,
  • 00:03:26.131 --> 00:03:29.901
  • They would've been thinking like, wow,
  • 00:03:29.901 --> 00:03:31.503
  • This is a meeting place where heaven meets earth.
  • 00:03:31.503 --> 00:03:34.473
  • This is a meeting place where divine assignment
  • 00:03:34.473 --> 00:03:36.942
  • And direction instruction are given.
  • 00:03:36.942 --> 00:03:39.177
  • So this would've been more than 'cause.
  • 00:03:39.177 --> 00:03:40.679
  • You know, the pe, the way people teach beatitudes is like
  • 00:03:40.679 --> 00:03:43.415
  • Hippie jesus.
  • 00:03:43.415 --> 00:03:44.983
  • Like he just went up on the mountaintop
  • 00:03:45.817 --> 00:03:47.185
  • And he was like, cuck c choo dudes.
  • 00:03:47.185 --> 00:03:50.422
  • Blessed are the pouring spirit man.
  • 00:03:50.422 --> 00:03:53.992
  • It's like, no, no, this, this was the same
  • 00:03:54.860 --> 00:03:57.663
  • To those first century jews
  • 00:03:57.663 --> 00:04:00.032
  • As when abraham would've went up on mariah
  • 00:04:00.032 --> 00:04:03.235
  • And elijah went on carmel and moses went on a sinai.
  • 00:04:03.235 --> 00:04:07.472
  • They would've had a great expectation
  • 00:04:07.472 --> 00:04:09.941
  • That this was a supernatural experience.
  • 00:04:09.941 --> 00:04:12.344
  • And think about this, when moses,
  • 00:04:12.344 --> 00:04:14.446
  • Or come on, when moses went up the mountain,
  • 00:04:14.446 --> 00:04:17.082
  • He received tablets etched with the very finger of god.
  • 00:04:17.082 --> 00:04:21.486
  • So their expectation wasn't that this was some hippie jesus
  • 00:04:22.654 --> 00:04:25.957
  • That was given them a feel good message.
  • 00:04:25.957 --> 00:04:27.959
  • Their expectation was god almighty is delivering a message
  • 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:32.631
  • And inaugurating another season.
  • 00:04:32.631 --> 00:04:35.033
  • So y'all ready to lock in with me? okay.
  • 00:04:35.033 --> 00:04:38.337
  • Mountains are where covenants are given.
  • 00:04:38.337 --> 00:04:41.640
  • So g, can we just stop with the milk and get into the meat?
  • 00:04:41.640 --> 00:04:45.644
  • Mountains are where covenants are given,
  • 00:04:45.644 --> 00:04:48.046
  • And he's issuing a kingdom constitution.
  • 00:04:48.046 --> 00:04:52.250
  • Th this is heaven's constitution on earth.
  • 00:04:52.250 --> 00:04:54.886
  • And by the way, it's not a guru telling you how
  • 00:04:54.886 --> 00:04:58.223
  • To be successful.
  • 00:04:58.223 --> 00:05:00.158
  • There's a lot of people who come
  • 00:05:00.158 --> 00:05:01.326
  • To new york city with a dream.
  • 00:05:01.326 --> 00:05:03.228
  • But if it's your dream birthed in the natural,
  • 00:05:04.129 --> 00:05:06.631
  • It will suffer natural consequences
  • 00:05:06.631 --> 00:05:09.067
  • Because everything in the natural dies.
  • 00:05:09.067 --> 00:05:11.603
  • But if it's birthed in the spirit, it's eternal
  • 00:05:12.537 --> 00:05:15.574
  • And it will remain.
  • 00:05:15.574 --> 00:05:17.509
  • And so he's not a guru going up on the mountain to teach us
  • 00:05:17.509 --> 00:05:21.113
  • How to be successful
  • 00:05:21.113 --> 00:05:22.914
  • Because a lot of that could be our own selfish ambition.
  • 00:05:22.914 --> 00:05:26.118
  • He's not talking about how to build a personal brand.
  • 00:05:26.118 --> 00:05:30.455
  • He's not talking about how to grow a platform.
  • 00:05:31.356 --> 00:05:34.593
  • And i'm telling you, especially living here in new york
  • 00:05:35.660 --> 00:05:38.196
  • City, there's a lot of people who've tried
  • 00:05:38.196 --> 00:05:39.998
  • To co-opt the messages of god for their own ambition.
  • 00:05:39.998 --> 00:05:43.502
  • Wow. jesus was saying something
  • 00:05:43.502 --> 00:05:46.705
  • Completely different than that.
  • 00:05:46.705 --> 00:05:47.939
  • He was saying, when the kingdom comes,
  • 00:05:47.939 --> 00:05:50.175
  • You'll have an invitation
  • 00:05:50.175 --> 00:05:51.376
  • To become citizens of this kingdom.
  • 00:05:51.376 --> 00:05:53.845
  • And here's the audience he's speaking to.
  • 00:05:53.845 --> 00:05:56.381
  • He's speaking to oppressed jews under the roman empire.
  • 00:05:56.381 --> 00:05:59.885
  • He's speaking to religious leaders, addicted to control.
  • 00:05:59.885 --> 00:06:03.054
  • He's speaking to people craving hope
  • 00:06:03.054 --> 00:06:05.557
  • That maybe their life could be better.
  • 00:06:05.557 --> 00:06:07.426
  • He's speaking to disciples that were hungry for the truth
  • 00:06:07.426 --> 00:06:10.462
  • And and he basically says, i'm about
  • 00:06:10.462 --> 00:06:12.397
  • To flip your entire system upside down.
  • 00:06:12.397 --> 00:06:15.567
  • Listen, we had how real can i be?
  • 00:06:15.567 --> 00:06:18.737
  • I mean, we've got these ice situations unfolding in cities.
  • 00:06:19.905 --> 00:06:24.342
  • We've got the epstein files being released
  • 00:06:24.342 --> 00:06:26.578
  • And some of your favorite im influencers
  • 00:06:26.578 --> 00:06:28.880
  • Being implicated in it.
  • 00:06:28.880 --> 00:06:30.348
  • I think it's time that jesus christ comes
  • 00:06:30.348 --> 00:06:32.551
  • And flips the system upside down.
  • 00:06:32.551 --> 00:06:34.786
  • I think it's time for some kingdom people to begin
  • 00:06:34.786 --> 00:06:37.189
  • To rise up and flip the script on the enemy
  • 00:06:37.189 --> 00:06:39.825
  • And this demonic agenda that we see in the earth.
  • 00:06:39.825 --> 00:06:42.227
  • And and it's more important than ever
  • 00:06:42.227 --> 00:06:44.429
  • To understand the kingdom while everybody's
  • 00:06:44.429 --> 00:06:46.465
  • Divided here on earth.
  • 00:06:46.465 --> 00:06:48.567
  • And and so what he was saying was, i'm about
  • 00:06:48.567 --> 00:06:50.535
  • To flip this system upside down.
  • 00:06:50.535 --> 00:06:52.671
  • And so there's this great reversal.
  • 00:06:52.671 --> 00:06:54.606
  • Matthew chapter five is where this sermon starts.
  • 00:06:54.606 --> 00:06:58.009
  • And it starts in verse three.
  • 00:06:58.009 --> 00:06:59.411
  • It says, blessed are the poor in spirit.
  • 00:06:59.411 --> 00:07:01.880
  • Blessed are those who mourn. blessed are those who are meek.
  • 00:07:01.880 --> 00:07:04.950
  • Okay, let me give you some graduate level greek right now.
  • 00:07:04.950 --> 00:07:07.586
  • 'cause y'all about to go to school fancy.
  • 00:07:07.586 --> 00:07:10.956
  • I mean, i'm taking graduate level greek right now.
  • 00:07:11.957 --> 00:07:14.893
  • And when i look at the word blessed,
  • 00:07:14.893 --> 00:07:17.329
  • 'cause you know we say hashtag blessed life.
  • 00:07:17.329 --> 00:07:20.198
  • Remember that? is that still a thing or am i dating myself?
  • 00:07:20.198 --> 00:07:23.802
  • Okay, the front row is like you're dating yourself. shh.
  • 00:07:23.802 --> 00:07:27.072
  • Hashtag blessed life. you know i'm blessed.
  • 00:07:28.006 --> 00:07:30.308
  • Or the old school people, you know, some fred hammond.
  • 00:07:30.308 --> 00:07:32.644
  • I'm blessed in the city. i'm blessed in.
  • 00:07:32.644 --> 00:07:36.715
  • Come on, i'm blessed.
  • 00:07:36.715 --> 00:07:38.583
  • And when you go, we cast down.
  • 00:07:39.217 --> 00:07:46.291
  • I just pretend to be young.
  • 00:07:46.892 --> 00:07:51.396
  • All right? so y'all know y'all. now i know who i'm with.
  • 00:07:52.497 --> 00:07:55.367
  • And if you didn't know that song, we'll get you safe today.
  • 00:07:55.367 --> 00:07:58.103
  • We'll bring you into the family,
  • 00:07:58.737 --> 00:07:59.971
  • We'll teach you your heritage.
  • 00:07:59.971 --> 00:08:01.973
  • But we talk about being blessed.
  • 00:08:01.973 --> 00:08:04.042
  • This is the definition of blessed to be deeply satisfied.
  • 00:08:04.042 --> 00:08:08.947
  • Wow, you probably didn't expect that
  • 00:08:09.714 --> 00:08:11.983
  • To be deeply satisfied.
  • 00:08:11.983 --> 00:08:15.253
  • Oh, come on. if you're longing to be deeply sat,
  • 00:08:15.253 --> 00:08:17.789
  • What does a profit, a man to gain the whole world
  • 00:08:17.789 --> 00:08:21.259
  • And yet lose his soul?
  • 00:08:21.259 --> 00:08:23.228
  • So the definition of blessed is not
  • 00:08:23.228 --> 00:08:25.497
  • That big apartment in the sky.
  • 00:08:25.497 --> 00:08:28.333
  • The definition of blessed is not that double six figure job
  • 00:08:28.333 --> 00:08:31.736
  • With actual health benefits.
  • 00:08:31.736 --> 00:08:33.672
  • And the definition is to be deeply satisfied.
  • 00:08:33.672 --> 00:08:37.108
  • There's only one thing that can deeply satisfy.
  • 00:08:37.108 --> 00:08:39.878
  • Come on, we know. so this redefines what blessed means
  • 00:08:39.878 --> 00:08:43.715
  • To be approved by god.
  • 00:08:43.715 --> 00:08:45.250
  • And then the last definition in the greek is flourishing.
  • 00:08:45.250 --> 00:08:49.187
  • How many of you believe that they can inflate the dollar,
  • 00:08:49.187 --> 00:08:51.623
  • Manipulate the markets, crash the whole market,
  • 00:08:51.623 --> 00:08:54.492
  • But you can actually flourish while
  • 00:08:54.492 --> 00:08:56.461
  • Everybody else is failing?
  • 00:08:56.461 --> 00:08:58.163
  • How many of you believe that you could be a joseph
  • 00:08:58.163 --> 00:09:00.498
  • And goshen living your best life in the midst, a whole bunch
  • 00:09:00.498 --> 00:09:03.969
  • Of tragedy around you?
  • 00:09:03.969 --> 00:09:05.437
  • I mean, isn't that not god that will raise people up
  • 00:09:05.437 --> 00:09:08.106
  • As a sign and a witness of his favor and his blessing?
  • 00:09:08.106 --> 00:09:12.077
  • So jesus basically says, now this is the best part.
  • 00:09:13.078 --> 00:09:16.681
  • Here's how he flips the script.
  • 00:09:16.681 --> 00:09:18.550
  • All the people that you think are losing when the kingdom
  • 00:09:18.550 --> 00:09:21.853
  • Enters, they're the ones who win.
  • 00:09:21.853 --> 00:09:24.122
  • All the people that you think are weak,
  • 00:09:24.122 --> 00:09:26.057
  • When the kingdom enters, they're powerful.
  • 00:09:26.057 --> 00:09:28.526
  • All the people that you think are cursed when the kingdom
  • 00:09:28.526 --> 00:09:31.363
  • Comes, those people are actually blessed
  • 00:09:31.363 --> 00:09:34.132
  • And the curse is broken.
  • 00:09:34.132 --> 00:09:35.433
  • I don't know about you.
  • 00:09:35.433 --> 00:09:37.068
  • You might need to take a five second praise bake right now.
  • 00:09:37.068 --> 00:09:39.537
  • Because when the kingdom entered my life, it broke the curse
  • 00:09:39.537 --> 00:09:43.208
  • Of alcoholism, the curse of depression and suicide.
  • 00:09:43.208 --> 00:09:46.911
  • Come on. i don't know about you,
  • 00:09:46.911 --> 00:09:48.780
  • But independent of the kingdom, there was no hope for me.
  • 00:09:48.780 --> 00:09:51.950
  • There was no counseling, no therapy, no medication.
  • 00:09:51.950 --> 00:09:55.086
  • There was nothing that could save me except
  • 00:09:55.086 --> 00:09:57.188
  • For jesus christ.
  • 00:09:57.188 --> 00:09:58.757
  • Come on. now, that doesn't mean i don't end up in
  • 00:09:58.757 --> 00:10:00.859
  • Counseling, that doesn't mean i don't end up
  • 00:10:00.859 --> 00:10:02.927
  • With some worldly solutions,
  • 00:10:02.927 --> 00:10:04.663
  • But there are some problems
  • 00:10:04.663 --> 00:10:06.164
  • That only jesus christ can solve.
  • 00:10:06.164 --> 00:10:08.767
  • He took a lowly sinner like me
  • 00:10:08.767 --> 00:10:11.069
  • And raised me up, picked me up out of the miy clay
  • 00:10:11.069 --> 00:10:14.639
  • And put my feet on a solid foundation.
  • 00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:17.442
  • And that's why i get louder in nightclub on sunday morning
  • 00:10:17.442 --> 00:10:21.479
  • Than i used to get loud on a saturday night
  • 00:10:21.479 --> 00:10:24.549
  • Because i know who saved me.
  • 00:10:24.549 --> 00:10:26.651
  • And don't you dare judge my worship
  • 00:10:26.651 --> 00:10:29.354
  • Until you know my warfare.
  • 00:10:29.354 --> 00:10:38.563
  • I'm blessed in the city i'm blessed in.
  • 00:10:39.397 --> 00:10:44.803
  • Come on, i might be broke, but i'm blessed.
  • 00:10:45.704 --> 00:10:51.309
  • I might be rejected from my lukewarm christian friends,
  • 00:10:52.444 --> 00:10:55.613
  • But i'm blessed.
  • 00:10:55.613 --> 00:10:57.082
  • I might be single, but i'm blessed.
  • 00:10:57.816 --> 00:11:05.123
  • Is that how y'all do it? okay, i just pretend. come on.
  • 00:11:06.191 --> 00:11:11.029
  • He likes it. but this,
  • 00:11:11.029 --> 00:11:15.133
  • But okay, the reason why i just did all that,
  • 00:11:15.133 --> 00:11:18.036
  • 'cause you probably think i'm doing too much.
  • 00:11:18.036 --> 00:11:20.038
  • I'm really not. let me explain why.
  • 00:11:20.038 --> 00:11:22.107
  • This is all in biblical context.
  • 00:11:22.107 --> 00:11:23.742
  • I'm a theologian with a little sass.
  • 00:11:23.742 --> 00:11:26.144
  • Because what happened was you gotta understand the religious
  • 00:11:27.345 --> 00:11:29.881
  • Elites, the pharisees
  • 00:11:29.881 --> 00:11:31.316
  • And sadducees, they subjugated these jewish people
  • 00:11:31.316 --> 00:11:34.753
  • And they made them feel like you'll never be righteous,
  • 00:11:34.753 --> 00:11:37.255
  • You'll never be good enough,
  • 00:11:37.255 --> 00:11:38.456
  • You'll never be as important as us.
  • 00:11:38.456 --> 00:11:40.258
  • You'll never understand the torah, you'll never be able
  • 00:11:40.258 --> 00:11:42.927
  • To teach, you'll never be able to preach.
  • 00:11:42.927 --> 00:11:44.796
  • And so you have that.
  • 00:11:44.796 --> 00:11:46.564
  • Then rome subjugates these people,
  • 00:11:46.564 --> 00:11:49.267
  • You're just gonna be the dirty jewish people
  • 00:11:49.267 --> 00:11:51.469
  • That are under our rule.
  • 00:11:51.469 --> 00:11:52.771
  • And you're a little more than a slave,
  • 00:11:52.771 --> 00:11:54.472
  • But a little less than a human.
  • 00:11:54.472 --> 00:11:56.541
  • So when you gotta understand, when jesus shows up
  • 00:11:56.541 --> 00:11:59.444
  • And he preaches the beatitudes, he is breaking that system.
  • 00:11:59.444 --> 00:12:03.081
  • And he was saying, the last will be first
  • 00:12:03.081 --> 00:12:06.084
  • And the first will be last.
  • 00:12:06.084 --> 00:12:08.686
  • You are the head and not the tail.
  • 00:12:08.686 --> 00:12:10.755
  • Don't forget, you are the seed of abraham and isaac
  • 00:12:10.755 --> 00:12:14.225
  • And jacob and he, i'm telling you,
  • 00:12:14.225 --> 00:12:16.194
  • They would've celebrated just like we celebrated.
  • 00:12:16.194 --> 00:12:19.364
  • And it would've been a crazy thing to see.
  • 00:12:19.364 --> 00:12:22.534
  • Alright, y'all getting it? all right.
  • 00:12:22.534 --> 00:12:24.936
  • Be attitude number one.
  • 00:12:24.936 --> 00:12:26.437
  • 'cause i didn't under, i'll be straight up with you.
  • 00:12:26.437 --> 00:12:28.740
  • I didn't understand this.
  • 00:12:28.740 --> 00:12:30.642
  • I had to wrestle with these beatitudes.
  • 00:12:30.642 --> 00:12:32.877
  • And not only that,
  • 00:12:32.877 --> 00:12:34.379
  • But most of the teaching i found again, it was polluted
  • 00:12:34.379 --> 00:12:37.682
  • By american christianity.
  • 00:12:37.682 --> 00:12:39.217
  • It, it wasn't really what jesus intended.
  • 00:12:39.217 --> 00:12:41.486
  • So i spent a lot of time in deep meditation
  • 00:12:41.486 --> 00:12:43.488
  • And study to get here.
  • 00:12:43.488 --> 00:12:44.989
  • And i think that's why it's been having such a effect.
  • 00:12:44.989 --> 00:12:47.992
  • So when i looked at porn in spirit,
  • 00:12:47.992 --> 00:12:50.028
  • This is probably the hardest one for me to understand.
  • 00:12:50.028 --> 00:12:52.564
  • Matthew chapter five, verse three.
  • 00:12:52.564 --> 00:12:54.232
  • He's like blessed outta the porn spirit
  • 00:12:54.232 --> 00:12:56.034
  • For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • 00:12:56.034 --> 00:12:58.636
  • So what? what does porn spirit mean?
  • 00:12:58.636 --> 00:13:00.905
  • Let me tell you what it doesn't mean.
  • 00:13:00.905 --> 00:13:02.774
  • It doesn't mean insecure, okay?
  • 00:13:02.774 --> 00:13:06.678
  • It, this is what it actually means.
  • 00:13:06.678 --> 00:13:08.713
  • It means i know that i have nothing independent from god.
  • 00:13:08.713 --> 00:13:14.052
  • Poor in spirit means he is the vine and i am the branch.
  • 00:13:15.186 --> 00:13:18.623
  • And apart from him, i am nothing.
  • 00:13:18.623 --> 00:13:21.025
  • And i know that all of my bachelor's, master's,
  • 00:13:21.025 --> 00:13:24.429
  • And doctor's degree,
  • 00:13:24.429 --> 00:13:25.830
  • I might have more degrees than the thermometer.
  • 00:13:25.830 --> 00:13:28.166
  • But i am a simple mind before the mind of god
  • 00:13:28.166 --> 00:13:31.269
  • Because his ways are higher than my ways,
  • 00:13:31.269 --> 00:13:33.938
  • And his thoughts are higher than my thoughts.
  • 00:13:33.938 --> 00:13:35.773
  • And i know that i am nothing with how him,
  • 00:13:35.773 --> 00:13:38.509
  • I can build the biggest bank account,
  • 00:13:38.509 --> 00:13:40.612
  • But i have nothing i it's poor in spirit.
  • 00:13:40.612 --> 00:13:43.248
  • It's no matter how much he increases you in the physical,
  • 00:13:43.248 --> 00:13:46.417
  • You decrease you in the spiritual.
  • 00:13:46.417 --> 00:13:49.287
  • Come on. poor in the spirit means god.
  • 00:13:49.287 --> 00:13:51.456
  • I understand that the worst thing that can happen
  • 00:13:51.456 --> 00:13:54.459
  • To me is you leave me to myself.
  • 00:13:54.459 --> 00:13:56.628
  • And i know that i'm nothing without you.
  • 00:13:56.628 --> 00:13:59.597
  • That i'll tell you that is where god wants to take you.
  • 00:14:00.698 --> 00:14:04.302
  • It's and you, you become spiritually bankrupt
  • 00:14:04.302 --> 00:14:07.505
  • And you, you have no resume.
  • 00:14:07.505 --> 00:14:10.041
  • I, this is why i can't stand christian people.
  • 00:14:10.041 --> 00:14:12.644
  • This is like the first time you ever meet 'em.
  • 00:14:12.644 --> 00:14:14.746
  • They give you their whole resume.
  • 00:14:14.746 --> 00:14:16.748
  • I'm a prophet, ordained by god, an apostolic global leader
  • 00:14:16.748 --> 00:14:21.052
  • To the nations, a teacher of the greek, hebrew and aramaic.
  • 00:14:21.052 --> 00:14:25.323
  • I floated into this room, i don't know if you notice,
  • 00:14:26.424 --> 00:14:28.526
  • I didn't even walk.
  • 00:14:28.526 --> 00:14:30.295
  • You know these people, you know,
  • 00:14:30.929 --> 00:14:32.697
  • I've been studying the scriptures for years
  • 00:14:32.697 --> 00:14:34.933
  • And you're just like, bro, i was just trying to ask you
  • 00:14:36.034 --> 00:14:38.403
  • Where you live in the city.
  • 00:14:38.403 --> 00:14:40.204
  • And if you're a yankees fan
  • 00:14:40.204 --> 00:14:42.840
  • Or a mets fan, you know, christians are weird like that.
  • 00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:46.811
  • As a matter of fact, the more you track the apostle paul,
  • 00:14:46.811 --> 00:14:50.415
  • It's like if you track his journey,
  • 00:14:50.415 --> 00:14:52.951
  • It's like he starts off identifying himself as an apostle.
  • 00:14:52.951 --> 00:14:56.187
  • And in his last letters, he identifies himself as a slave.
  • 00:14:56.187 --> 00:14:59.724
  • It's almost like the deeper he went into his faith,
  • 00:15:00.758 --> 00:15:03.795
  • The more spiritually bankrupt he became.
  • 00:15:03.795 --> 00:15:06.397
  • And there's something, there's some deep truth to
  • 00:15:07.398 --> 00:15:09.167
  • What i'm telling you,
  • 00:15:09.167 --> 00:15:10.568
  • Because as soon as you think you're something in the
  • 00:15:10.568 --> 00:15:12.737
  • Kingdom, you're literally on the route to become nothing.
  • 00:15:12.737 --> 00:15:16.741
  • But when you empty yourself before the lord
  • 00:15:16.741 --> 00:15:18.810
  • And say, lord, i think i know something,
  • 00:15:18.810 --> 00:15:21.713
  • But even my experience can be violated by the supernatural.
  • 00:15:21.713 --> 00:15:25.850
  • Did not jesus, i feel such a grace on this.
  • 00:15:25.850 --> 00:15:29.053
  • Jesus refused to heal people
  • 00:15:29.053 --> 00:15:31.622
  • With the same condition the same way.
  • 00:15:31.622 --> 00:15:34.359
  • So he heals. a blind person doesn't even do it the same
  • 00:15:35.493 --> 00:15:37.495
  • Way every single time.
  • 00:15:37.495 --> 00:15:38.930
  • Why? because he's not the god of formulas.
  • 00:15:38.930 --> 00:15:41.466
  • He's the god of faith.
  • 00:15:41.466 --> 00:15:44.002
  • So, so even the people, i've been in ministry for years.
  • 00:15:45.136 --> 00:15:48.673
  • Yeah, but you might have been banking on a formula for years
  • 00:15:48.673 --> 00:15:51.809
  • And god does not honor a formula.
  • 00:15:51.809 --> 00:15:54.145
  • He honors faith.
  • 00:15:54.145 --> 00:15:55.446
  • So even your experience in the kingdom can block
  • 00:15:55.446 --> 00:15:58.149
  • What god's getting ready to do.
  • 00:15:58.149 --> 00:15:59.884
  • And i say, god, do a new thing.
  • 00:15:59.884 --> 00:16:03.287
  • And so beatitude number two is blessed, those who mourn.
  • 00:16:04.422 --> 00:16:08.092
  • You know, matthew chapter five, verse four says,
  • 00:16:09.060 --> 00:16:10.595
  • Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
  • 00:16:10.595 --> 00:16:14.032
  • Now again, when you read that, what you think it means,
  • 00:16:14.032 --> 00:16:17.869
  • The kind of mourning, the kind of grieving that we do now,
  • 00:16:17.869 --> 00:16:21.973
  • You know, these prophets come every year
  • 00:16:21.973 --> 00:16:23.541
  • And say, this is gonna be your year.
  • 00:16:23.541 --> 00:16:25.710
  • They've been telling me that for all these years.
  • 00:16:25.710 --> 00:16:27.512
  • I don't think it's ever been my year yet.
  • 00:16:27.512 --> 00:16:29.680
  • Matter of fact, i'm mad at them. i'm like, when?
  • 00:16:30.648 --> 00:16:32.417
  • When am i gonna have one easy year?
  • 00:16:32.417 --> 00:16:34.786
  • Anybody know what i'm talking about?
  • 00:16:34.786 --> 00:16:36.487
  • When's it gonna be my year? you false prophet come on.
  • 00:16:36.487 --> 00:16:40.058
  • But here's the thing. we think about, you know, the,
  • 00:16:41.125 --> 00:16:45.229
  • This year we have many reasons to grieve last year
  • 00:16:45.229 --> 00:16:48.332
  • And the loss of a loved one, a divorce, a breakup.
  • 00:16:48.332 --> 00:16:52.003
  • You know, we have legitimate reasons to mourn.
  • 00:16:52.003 --> 00:16:54.005
  • So my, i thought that jesus was saying blessed are those
  • 00:16:54.005 --> 00:16:58.242
  • Who mourn circumstances in their life, things they've lost,
  • 00:16:58.242 --> 00:17:02.380
  • Because they'll be comforted.
  • 00:17:02.380 --> 00:17:03.581
  • Doesn't that sound so nice?
  • 00:17:03.581 --> 00:17:05.817
  • But when i went deeper,
  • 00:17:06.317 --> 00:17:08.152
  • He's not talking about mourning hardship,
  • 00:17:08.152 --> 00:17:11.022
  • He's talking about mourning your sin.
  • 00:17:11.022 --> 00:17:15.660
  • Second corinthians, chapter seven, verse 10 says,
  • 00:17:16.694 --> 00:17:19.197
  • Godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation.
  • 00:17:19.197 --> 00:17:24.502
  • There's a brokenness over compromise.
  • 00:17:25.269 --> 00:17:27.538
  • There's a mourning of our own sin.
  • 00:17:27.538 --> 00:17:30.108
  • You know, it's crazy because we think about the death
  • 00:17:30.108 --> 00:17:32.343
  • Of a loved one, but you're mourning the temporal.
  • 00:17:32.343 --> 00:17:35.446
  • I got bad news for y'all. we're all gonna die.
  • 00:17:35.446 --> 00:17:38.783
  • Even the people, jesus christ raised from the dead,
  • 00:17:38.783 --> 00:17:41.719
  • They died again.
  • 00:17:41.719 --> 00:17:43.454
  • So the greatest physical miracle would be pastor mike goes
  • 00:17:44.555 --> 00:17:48.059
  • To your hospital bed and raises you from the dead.
  • 00:17:48.059 --> 00:17:50.261
  • That body is still mortal. it's still gonna die.
  • 00:17:50.261 --> 00:17:52.897
  • So there's another level of mourning that says,
  • 00:17:52.897 --> 00:17:55.700
  • I'm mourning my sin because there's eternal consequences.
  • 00:17:55.700 --> 00:18:00.938
  • There's some, and, and i know this sounds crazy,
  • 00:18:01.906 --> 00:18:03.274
  • But you know how you know you're free from lust is
  • 00:18:03.274 --> 00:18:06.911
  • That the object of sexual desire starts to turn into family.
  • 00:18:06.911 --> 00:18:11.149
  • Come on. because instead of looking at women
  • 00:18:11.149 --> 00:18:14.986
  • And you wanna be a predator, you're looking at them as,
  • 00:18:14.986 --> 00:18:17.688
  • As daughters, as mothers, as grandmothers,
  • 00:18:17.688 --> 00:18:20.391
  • And the lord heals you.
  • 00:18:20.391 --> 00:18:21.726
  • That happens on a soul level.
  • 00:18:21.726 --> 00:18:23.928
  • But i'll tell you the, you'll know what's happening
  • 00:18:23.928 --> 00:18:26.097
  • Because you'll grieve the fact
  • 00:18:26.097 --> 00:18:27.665
  • That you ever became so perverted.
  • 00:18:27.665 --> 00:18:29.967
  • As a matter of fact, one of the evidences of the work
  • 00:18:31.068 --> 00:18:33.738
  • Of the holy spirit in you is mourning.
  • 00:18:33.738 --> 00:18:37.108
  • I don't know about you, but the longer i'm in this faith,
  • 00:18:37.108 --> 00:18:39.710
  • There's even moments where thing, things i did,
  • 00:18:39.710 --> 00:18:41.712
  • I forgot i did.
  • 00:18:41.712 --> 00:18:43.247
  • I think about it, i start getting sick to my stomach.
  • 00:18:43.247 --> 00:18:45.449
  • I'm like, how did i ever become that person?
  • 00:18:45.449 --> 00:18:48.019
  • And then the holy spirit whispers me, mike, the fact
  • 00:18:48.019 --> 00:18:50.688
  • That you even feel bad about her is the evidence
  • 00:18:50.688 --> 00:18:53.391
  • That i've changed you.
  • 00:18:53.391 --> 00:18:54.992
  • Come on, i don't know who i'm talking to right now,
  • 00:18:56.060 --> 00:18:58.863
  • But you are not who you are going to be,
  • 00:18:58.863 --> 00:19:01.332
  • But you are definitely not who you used to be.
  • 00:19:01.332 --> 00:19:04.335
  • You're on a journey called sanctification.
  • 00:19:04.335 --> 00:19:07.171
  • It's the perfecting of the saints.
  • 00:19:07.171 --> 00:19:09.540
  • And you're going through a process called the refiners fire.
  • 00:19:09.540 --> 00:19:13.110
  • And you're not coming out too soon
  • 00:19:13.110 --> 00:19:15.146
  • And he's gonna purify you until he sees a vision
  • 00:19:15.146 --> 00:19:18.449
  • Of himself reflected in you.
  • 00:19:18.449 --> 00:19:20.651
  • Is there anybody who's thankful for sanctification?
  • 00:19:20.651 --> 00:19:24.155
  • Come on. you know what? what does this do?
  • 00:19:25.022 --> 00:19:28.659
  • This kills pride. christianity.
  • 00:19:28.659 --> 00:19:31.662
  • This kills the resume and rips it up.
  • 00:19:31.662 --> 00:19:34.465
  • This kills platform obsession.
  • 00:19:34.465 --> 00:19:37.668
  • It kills it, it kills.
  • 00:19:38.169 --> 00:19:40.438
  • Look at me, faith in kingdom people say, god,
  • 00:19:40.438 --> 00:19:44.709
  • Without you, i'm empty.
  • 00:19:44.709 --> 00:19:46.577
  • You know, the other thing
  • 00:19:46.577 --> 00:19:48.312
  • That this kills is the nobody's perfect christianity.
  • 00:19:48.312 --> 00:19:51.916
  • Now, we say that to comfort people, right?
  • 00:19:51.916 --> 00:19:54.218
  • When they come to church, oh, nobody's perfect.
  • 00:19:54.218 --> 00:19:56.954
  • Listen, the problem with
  • 00:19:56.954 --> 00:19:58.556
  • That is it deletes jesus' own perspective.
  • 00:19:58.556 --> 00:20:02.493
  • Because jesus didn't say, hey, let's all hang out.
  • 00:20:02.493 --> 00:20:05.496
  • Nobody's perfect jesus.
  • 00:20:05.496 --> 00:20:08.165
  • I'm telling y'all, on your own time this week, i want you
  • 00:20:08.165 --> 00:20:11.369
  • To read, this is your homework.
  • 00:20:11.369 --> 00:20:12.837
  • All right? if you want to be a disciple,
  • 00:20:12.837 --> 00:20:14.805
  • Read matthew chapter three all the way
  • 00:20:14.805 --> 00:20:16.941
  • And go all the way to chapter 11 this week.
  • 00:20:16.941 --> 00:20:19.477
  • I dare you. and how many of you remember the red letters?
  • 00:20:19.477 --> 00:20:23.447
  • Okay, the who's the red letters? jesus. yeah, jesus.
  • 00:20:23.447 --> 00:20:26.684
  • So read the red letters i had, i thought to myself, for
  • 00:20:26.684 --> 00:20:29.687
  • As savage as i can be, as a preacher, i am soft compared
  • 00:20:29.687 --> 00:20:33.391
  • To jesus.
  • 00:20:33.391 --> 00:20:34.959
  • Because while we're saying, hey, no, hey,
  • 00:20:34.959 --> 00:20:37.028
  • There's no perfect people that belong in this church.
  • 00:20:37.028 --> 00:20:39.697
  • Nobody's perfect. jesus is looking at somebody
  • 00:20:39.697 --> 00:20:42.400
  • And saying, now go and sin no more.
  • 00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:45.736
  • It's brutal. but here's the thing.
  • 00:20:45.736 --> 00:20:48.272
  • Jesus was not giving an assignment that he wasn't going
  • 00:20:48.272 --> 00:20:51.642
  • To accompany with power.
  • 00:20:51.642 --> 00:20:54.178
  • So, and the reason why jesus was exploiting their measure
  • 00:20:54.178 --> 00:20:58.115
  • Of sin wasn't to necessarily make them ashamed,
  • 00:20:58.115 --> 00:21:01.585
  • But what he was trying to do was
  • 00:21:01.585 --> 00:21:02.887
  • To convince them you need a savior.
  • 00:21:02.887 --> 00:21:05.690
  • And you are not saved by following the laws
  • 00:21:05.690 --> 00:21:08.626
  • Because externally you're doing the right thing,
  • 00:21:08.626 --> 00:21:11.062
  • But internally, you're, you're, you're guilty.
  • 00:21:11.062 --> 00:21:13.931
  • And, and the thing, the reason why he exposed that was
  • 00:21:13.931 --> 00:21:17.201
  • Because he was saying, you need a savior,
  • 00:21:17.201 --> 00:21:18.869
  • But i'm gonna empower you
  • 00:21:18.869 --> 00:21:20.705
  • To be a bloodline generational curse breaker.
  • 00:21:20.705 --> 00:21:24.141
  • And there are some things that run in your family,
  • 00:21:24.141 --> 00:21:26.644
  • But i'm gonna die on that cross.
  • 00:21:26.644 --> 00:21:28.879
  • And that blood is gonna pour out from calvary
  • 00:21:28.879 --> 00:21:31.615
  • And it's gonna run out in your family.
  • 00:21:31.615 --> 00:21:34.652
  • And i'm gonna empower you to be the husband
  • 00:21:34.652 --> 00:21:37.321
  • And the father, the wife and the mother that you never had.
  • 00:21:37.321 --> 00:21:40.891
  • I'm gonna empower you to not just do hard,
  • 00:21:40.891 --> 00:21:44.061
  • But to do impossible things.
  • 00:21:44.061 --> 00:21:45.963
  • Because for with god, all things are possible.
  • 00:21:45.963 --> 00:21:50.434
  • Come on, give god a hand clap if you believe it.
  • 00:21:51.402 --> 00:21:56.540
  • Come on. blessed are the meek beatitude.
  • 00:21:57.408 --> 00:21:59.443
  • Number three, matthew chapter five, verse five says,
  • 00:21:59.443 --> 00:22:02.446
  • Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.
  • 00:22:02.446 --> 00:22:05.249
  • Now, meekness is not weakness
  • 00:22:05.249 --> 00:22:08.185
  • 'cause i know y'all don't believe this.
  • 00:22:09.053 --> 00:22:10.588
  • I am extremely introverted. so you think about meekness.
  • 00:22:10.588 --> 00:22:14.892
  • So jesus is saying, blessed are the meek.
  • 00:22:14.892 --> 00:22:16.994
  • They're gonna inherit the earth. and you're like, what?
  • 00:22:16.994 --> 00:22:19.864
  • But meekness is not weakness.
  • 00:22:20.498 --> 00:22:23.033
  • This is the biblical definition of meekness.
  • 00:22:23.033 --> 00:22:25.736
  • It's strength submitted,
  • 00:22:25.736 --> 00:22:28.506
  • Strength submitted.
  • 00:22:28.973 --> 00:22:31.409
  • Okay, this is where it came from
  • 00:22:31.409 --> 00:22:33.677
  • Because you gotta go back historically.
  • 00:22:33.677 --> 00:22:35.579
  • Now, did anybody ride a horse to church today?
  • 00:22:35.579 --> 00:22:38.482
  • Okay, so i gotta put this back into context
  • 00:22:39.383 --> 00:22:42.753
  • Because you didn't ride a horse.
  • 00:22:42.753 --> 00:22:44.054
  • So the thing about riding a horse is they
  • 00:22:44.054 --> 00:22:46.891
  • Have their own brain.
  • 00:22:46.891 --> 00:22:48.626
  • It's not like a car.
  • 00:22:49.093 --> 00:22:50.361
  • You control the car with the steering wheel.
  • 00:22:50.361 --> 00:22:52.463
  • But a horse, it's a symbiotic relationship.
  • 00:22:52.463 --> 00:22:55.099
  • This is beautiful what i'm saying.
  • 00:22:55.099 --> 00:22:57.001
  • Because a, a car, it only has one brain, the brain
  • 00:22:57.001 --> 00:23:00.471
  • Of the driver, right?
  • 00:23:00.471 --> 00:23:02.106
  • And so what happens with a horse is it's the interaction
  • 00:23:02.106 --> 00:23:04.809
  • Of two minds.
  • 00:23:04.809 --> 00:23:06.010
  • You're about to get a revelation.
  • 00:23:06.010 --> 00:23:07.711
  • And so what would happen in the ancient days is
  • 00:23:07.711 --> 00:23:10.147
  • That is the soldiers would mount up for battle
  • 00:23:10.147 --> 00:23:12.817
  • And they would get on a horse, and they had to break
  • 00:23:12.817 --> 00:23:16.020
  • And train those powerful war horses to do the opposite
  • 00:23:16.020 --> 00:23:19.890
  • Of their instinct.
  • 00:23:19.890 --> 00:23:21.325
  • Because the horse's instinct would say, do you see
  • 00:23:21.325 --> 00:23:23.994
  • That battle up ahead with all the flames?
  • 00:23:23.994 --> 00:23:26.964
  • Do you hear the clashing of the swords?
  • 00:23:26.964 --> 00:23:29.099
  • Don't run into that battle because it's not safe.
  • 00:23:29.099 --> 00:23:32.636
  • So what made a war horse was
  • 00:23:32.636 --> 00:23:34.805
  • That horse was strength submitted
  • 00:23:34.805 --> 00:23:37.341
  • And the rider could get on the horse
  • 00:23:37.341 --> 00:23:39.310
  • And ride it into the opposite direction of its comfort.
  • 00:23:39.310 --> 00:23:42.880
  • Oh, come on somebody.
  • 00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:44.181
  • And they would say that that horse is meek.
  • 00:23:44.181 --> 00:23:47.184
  • And so meekness is the attribute of a strong war horse
  • 00:23:47.184 --> 00:23:51.555
  • That says, jesus, wherever you send me, i'll go
  • 00:23:51.555 --> 00:23:54.892
  • However bad the battle looks, i'll fight that battle
  • 00:23:54.892 --> 00:23:58.429
  • Because my brain is submitted to your brain
  • 00:23:58.429 --> 00:24:01.499
  • And i'll do what you called me to do.
  • 00:24:01.499 --> 00:24:03.634
  • Are there any meek war horses here today who say, god,
  • 00:24:03.634 --> 00:24:07.271
  • I'm submitted.
  • 00:24:07.271 --> 00:24:08.506
  • Now, i would love to meet you in person
  • 00:24:08.506 --> 00:24:13.544
  • As we retrace the steps
  • 00:24:14.044 --> 00:24:15.346
  • Of the apostle paul on an unforgettable journey
  • 00:24:15.346 --> 00:24:18.582
  • Through greece and turkey.
  • 00:24:18.582 --> 00:24:20.451
  • It's gonna be a five star experience
  • 00:24:20.451 --> 00:24:22.820
  • With not only incredible hotels, but also a cruise.
  • 00:24:22.820 --> 00:24:26.590
  • And we're gonna go to the very places
  • 00:24:26.590 --> 00:24:28.559
  • That scripture was written, including patmos, where the book
  • 00:24:28.559 --> 00:24:32.162
  • Of revelation was written by john.
  • 00:24:32.162 --> 00:24:34.698
  • I cannot wait to meet you in person, but seats are limited,
  • 00:24:34.698 --> 00:24:38.536
  • Although they're still available.
  • 00:24:38.536 --> 00:24:40.404
  • So you have to make decision now.
  • 00:24:40.404 --> 00:24:42.873
  • The information's here on the screen.
  • 00:24:42.873 --> 00:24:44.842
  • Go ahead and take advantage of an experience
  • 00:24:44.842 --> 00:24:47.745
  • That will last a lifetime.
  • 00:24:47.745 --> 00:24:49.580
  • I wanna pray with you at these locations
  • 00:24:49.580 --> 00:24:52.016
  • As we invite the presence of the holy spirit.
  • 00:24:52.016 --> 00:24:54.718
  • I want to teach you exactly what was happening in culture
  • 00:24:54.718 --> 00:24:58.088
  • As the scriptures were written.
  • 00:24:58.088 --> 00:24:59.723
  • I want to have some incredible meals together with you.
  • 00:24:59.723 --> 00:25:02.993
  • It's going to be amazing.
  • 00:25:02.993 --> 00:25:05.129
  • But i need you to make that decision now
  • 00:25:05.129 --> 00:25:07.131
  • Before all of the seats are gone.
  • 00:25:07.131 --> 00:25:09.967
  • It's gonna be amazing, and i can't wait to meet you.
  • 00:25:09.967 --> 00:25:13.103

  • 00:25:13.103 --> 00:25:16.941
  • Of the apostle paul with mike signorelli on tour.
  • 00:25:16.941 --> 00:25:20.711
  • Can't wait to see you there.
  • 00:25:20.711 --> 00:25:27.484
  • In a few moments, i wanna pray for you.
  • 00:25:28.352 --> 00:25:30.454
  • You know, i've seen medically verifiable
  • 00:25:30.454 --> 00:25:32.423
  • Miracles all around the world.
  • 00:25:32.423 --> 00:25:34.258
  • I wanna pray for you. i,
  • 00:25:34.258 --> 00:25:35.960
  • I've actually seen people delivered from demons in moments.
  • 00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:38.929
  • But the greatest miracle is salvation.
  • 00:25:38.929 --> 00:25:41.298
  • It's when someone who's dead in their sin, literally headed
  • 00:25:41.298 --> 00:25:44.702
  • To hell, is saved by jesus christ and made to be alive
  • 00:25:44.702 --> 00:25:49.173
  • And headed to heaven.
  • 00:25:49.173 --> 00:25:50.708
  • And that can happen if you do what romans 10, nine says,
  • 00:25:50.708 --> 00:25:54.578
  • Can confess with your mouth, believe in your heart
  • 00:25:54.578 --> 00:25:56.981
  • And you will be saved.
  • 00:25:56.981 --> 00:25:58.248
  • It's that we don't earn it, we don't deserve it.
  • 00:25:58.248 --> 00:26:00.584
  • We just receive it.
  • 00:26:00.584 --> 00:26:02.286
  • So i want you to repeat these words with me
  • 00:26:02.286 --> 00:26:04.755
  • Because i don't believe in accidents
  • 00:26:04.755 --> 00:26:06.290
  • And the holy spirit's been drawing you.
  • 00:26:06.290 --> 00:26:08.225
  • Say it with me. heavenly father, i thank you for the cross
  • 00:26:08.225 --> 00:26:12.329
  • Where my sins were forgiven.
  • 00:26:12.329 --> 00:26:14.598
  • Wash me with your blood. i am a disciple.

  • And difficult is the way that leads to life.
  • 00:27:01.478 --> 00:27:04.648
