- Today i'm continuing to share
- 00:00:32.956 --> 00:00:34.657
- About the goodness of god, that
- 00:00:34.657 --> 00:00:36.526
- God is a good god. god loves you
- 00:00:36.526 --> 00:00:38.995

- Wants to do good things for you.
- 00:00:40.964 --> 00:00:43.566
- I'm talking about the true
- 00:00:43.566 --> 00:00:45.201
- Nature of god. i've got a book
- 00:00:45.201 --> 00:00:47.170
- On this. and this is just
- 00:00:47.170 --> 00:00:49.005
- Something that you need to
- 00:00:49.005 --> 00:00:49.973
- Understand. and most people
- 00:00:49.973 --> 00:00:52.909
- Really struggle to believe that
- 00:00:52.976 --> 00:00:54.677
- Really struggle to believe that god is truly a good god, because
- 00:00:54.744 --> 00:00:57.514
- God is truly a good god, because they see so much tragedy in the
- 00:00:57.580 --> 00:00:59.482
- They see so much tragedy in the world and also in their life,
- 00:00:59.549 --> 00:01:01.484
- World and also in their life, and religion has taught us that
- 00:01:01.551 --> 00:01:03.853
- And religion has taught us that god is the source of that
- 00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:05.421
- God is the source of that tragedy. that's not true. and
- 00:01:05.488 --> 00:01:08.358
- Tragedy. that's not true. and some people right now might be
- 00:01:08.424 --> 00:01:09.726
- Some people right now might be thinking, well now wait a
- 00:01:09.792 --> 00:01:10.627
- Thinking, well now wait a minute, i can show you things
- 00:01:10.693 --> 00:01:11.828
- Minute, i can show you things where god struck miriam with
- 00:01:11.895 --> 00:01:13.429
- Where god struck miriam with leprosy, where god sent an angel
- 00:01:13.496 --> 00:01:15.765
- Leprosy, where god sent an angel and killed 186,000 syrians in
- 00:01:15.832 --> 00:01:18.935
- And killed 186,000 syrians in one night, where it says that if
- 00:01:19.002 --> 00:01:21.104
- One night, where it says that if you do this, here comes the
- 00:01:21.171 --> 00:01:22.505
- You do this, here comes the wrath and the punishment of god.
- 00:01:22.572 --> 00:01:24.974
- Wrath and the punishment of god. so, yet, i can also show you in
- 00:01:25.041 --> 00:01:27.710
- So, yet, i can also show you in the new testament where a woman
- 00:01:27.777 --> 00:01:29.479
- The new testament where a woman was condemned to death because
- 00:01:29.546 --> 00:01:31.781
- Was condemned to death because she had committed adultery, and
- 00:01:31.848 --> 00:01:33.149
- She had committed adultery, and they caught her in the very act
- 00:01:33.216 --> 00:01:34.384
- They caught her in the very act of adultery, and yet instead of
- 00:01:34.450 --> 00:01:36.419
- Of adultery, and yet instead of jesus executing judgment upon
- 00:01:36.486 --> 00:01:38.354
- Her, he said, he that's without
- 00:01:38.421 --> 00:01:39.822
- Her, he said, he that's without sin, cast the first stone.
- 00:01:39.889 --> 00:01:41.357
- He didn't say that what she
- 00:01:41.958 --> 00:01:43.059
- He didn't say that what she did wasn't sin. matter of fact,
- 00:01:43.126 --> 00:01:44.227
- Did wasn't sin. matter of fact, after everybody else left,
- 00:01:44.294 --> 00:01:45.361
- He says, go, and sin no more.
- 00:01:45.428 --> 00:01:48.064
- He called it sin, but he didn't
- 00:01:48.131 --> 00:01:50.333
- He called it sin, but he didn't execute the judgment. he was
- 00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:51.768
- Execute the judgment. he was merciful to something that under
- 00:01:51.834 --> 00:01:54.003
- Merciful to something that under the old covenant, you had to put
- 00:01:54.070 --> 00:01:56.039
- The old covenant, you had to put that person to death if they did
- 00:01:56.105 --> 00:01:58.408
- That person to death if they did that. so which is it? is it the
- 00:01:58.474 --> 00:02:01.044
- That. so which is it? is it the god of the old covenant where
- 00:02:01.110 --> 00:02:02.946
- God of the old covenant where there's wrath and judgment,
- 00:02:03.012 --> 00:02:04.247
- There's wrath and judgment, or is it jesus of the new
- 00:02:04.314 --> 00:02:05.648
- Or is it jesus of the new testament? they don't contradict
- 00:02:05.715 --> 00:02:07.984
- Testament? they don't contradict each other, they i... actually
- 00:02:08.051 --> 00:02:09.285
- Each other, they i... actually compliment each other. and i
- 00:02:09.352 --> 00:02:10.820
- Compliment each other. and i have tried to spend a lot of
- 00:02:10.887 --> 00:02:12.655
- Have tried to spend a lot of time showing you why god gave
- 00:02:12.722 --> 00:02:16.392
- Time showing you why god gave this law. the first 2000 years
- 00:02:16.459 --> 00:02:19.295
- After adam and eve sinned, there
- 00:02:20.697 --> 00:02:22.999
- After adam and eve sinned, there was sin that was in the world,
- 00:02:23.066 --> 00:02:24.634
- Was sin that was in the world, but god wasn't imputing their
- 00:02:24.701 --> 00:02:26.703
- But god wasn't imputing their sin unto them. let me go back to
- 00:02:26.769 --> 00:02:28.071
- That verse in romans, chapter 5,
- 00:02:28.137 --> 00:02:30.607
- That verse in romans, chapter 5, and in verse 13. it says,
- 00:02:30.673 --> 00:02:32.141
- And in verse 13. it says, for until the law sin
- 00:02:32.208 --> 00:02:34.010
- For until the law sin was in the world. the
- 00:02:34.077 --> 00:02:34.744
- Law came approximately 2000
- 00:02:34.811 --> 00:02:36.980
- Law came approximately 2000 years after the fall of adam
- 00:02:37.046 --> 00:02:39.115
- Years after the fall of adam and eve. so for the
- 00:02:39.182 --> 00:02:40.283
- And eve. so for the first 2000 years, sin was
- 00:02:40.350 --> 00:02:41.884
- In the world, but sin is not
- 00:02:41.951 --> 00:02:44.787
- In the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
- 00:02:44.854 --> 00:02:47.323
- Sin wasn't held against. god
- 00:02:47.790 --> 00:02:49.592
- Sin wasn't held against. god wasn't revealing his wrath and
- 00:02:49.659 --> 00:02:52.262
- Wasn't revealing his wrath and his punishment upon sin until
- 00:02:52.328 --> 00:02:54.797
- His punishment upon sin until the lie... time that the law
- 00:02:54.864 --> 00:02:56.232
- The lie... time that the law came. so the very fact that it
- 00:02:56.299 --> 00:02:58.201
- Came. so the very fact that it took 2000 years after man's sin
- 00:02:58.268 --> 00:03:01.671
- Took 2000 years after man's sin before god's wrath began to be
- 00:03:01.738 --> 00:03:03.539
- Before god's wrath began to be poured out on sin, says volumes.
- 00:03:03.606 --> 00:03:06.709
- Poured out on sin, says volumes. that says that this wasn't god's
- 00:03:06.776 --> 00:03:08.311
- That says that this wasn't god's first choice. his first choice
- 00:03:08.378 --> 00:03:10.847
- First choice. his first choice was to deal with mercy. he
- 00:03:10.913 --> 00:03:12.682
- Was to deal with mercy. he didn't tell adam and eve how
- 00:03:12.749 --> 00:03:14.150
- Didn't tell adam and eve how terrible they were. did you know
- 00:03:14.217 --> 00:03:16.119
- Terrible they were. did you know he could have shown them what's
- 00:03:16.185 --> 00:03:17.654
- He could have shown them what's happened in your life and in my
- 00:03:17.720 --> 00:03:20.256
- Happened in your life and in my life, the hurt and the pain. and
- 00:03:20.323 --> 00:03:23.526
- Life, the hurt and the pain. and man, if he would have described
- 00:03:23.593 --> 00:03:24.894
- Man, if he would have described what happened under hitler and
- 00:03:24.961 --> 00:03:26.562
- What happened under hitler and under genghis khan and under all
- 00:03:26.629 --> 00:03:29.232
- Under genghis khan and under all of the romans and the christians
- 00:03:29.299 --> 00:03:31.467
- Of the romans and the christians thrown to the lions. and... and
- 00:03:31.534 --> 00:03:33.436
- Thrown to the lions. and... and if he would have shown adam and
- 00:03:33.503 --> 00:03:34.737
- If he would have shown adam and eve all of the stuff that their
- 00:03:34.804 --> 00:03:36.873
- Eve all of the stuff that their sin had released on the human
- 00:03:36.939 --> 00:03:38.675
- Sin had released on the human race, i don't believe that they
- 00:03:38.741 --> 00:03:40.343
- Race, i don't believe that they would have been able to survive.
- 00:03:40.410 --> 00:03:41.844
- Would have been able to survive. they couldn't have lived with
- 00:03:41.911 --> 00:03:43.479
- They couldn't have lived with themself. he didn't tell them
- 00:03:43.546 --> 00:03:45.315
- Themself. he didn't tell them all that. all they knew that was
- 00:03:45.381 --> 00:03:46.883
- All that. all they knew that was that they were naked, and
- 00:03:46.949 --> 00:03:48.418
- That they were naked, and compared to everything that they
- 00:03:48.484 --> 00:03:50.053
- Compared to everything that they unleashed on the human race,
- 00:03:50.119 --> 00:03:51.854
- Unleashed on the human race, that was minuscule, that was
- 00:03:51.921 --> 00:03:53.523
- That was minuscule, that was minor. he didn't tell them how
- 00:03:53.589 --> 00:03:56.359
- Minor. he didn't tell them how bad their sin was, because he
- 00:03:56.426 --> 00:03:58.027
- Bad their sin was, because he didn't want them to be
- 00:03:58.094 --> 00:03:59.028
- Didn't want them to be condemned. he didn't want them
- 00:03:59.095 --> 00:04:00.363
- Condemned. he didn't want them to run and hide the way that
- 00:04:00.430 --> 00:04:02.065
- To run and hide the way that they did. he made clothes for
- 00:04:02.131 --> 00:04:04.067
- They did. he made clothes for them and clothed them, and he
- 00:04:04.133 --> 00:04:05.868
- Them and clothed them, and he wanted them to run to him
- 00:04:05.935 --> 00:04:07.570
- Wanted them to run to him instead of away from him. that's
- 00:04:07.637 --> 00:04:09.572
- Instead of away from him. that's why he didn't give the law for
- 00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:11.808
- Why he didn't give the law for the first 2000 years. but, once
- 00:04:11.874 --> 00:04:15.345
- The first 2000 years. but, once the law came, it served a
- 00:04:15.411 --> 00:04:16.713
- The law came, it served a purpose because people had begun
- 00:04:16.779 --> 00:04:18.548
- Purpose because people had begun to think that god didn't care
- 00:04:18.614 --> 00:04:20.049
- To think that god didn't care about whether they lived in sin.
- 00:04:20.116 --> 00:04:21.851
- About whether they lived in sin. they saw people go out here and
- 00:04:21.918 --> 00:04:23.186
- They saw people go out here and murder somebody and god didn't
- 00:04:23.252 --> 00:04:24.654
- Murder somebody and god didn't strike them dead. and so they
- 00:04:24.721 --> 00:04:26.789
- Strike them dead. and so they just thought, well god must not
- 00:04:26.856 --> 00:04:28.424
- Just thought, well god must not care. that wasn't true at all,
- 00:04:28.491 --> 00:04:30.626
- Care. that wasn't true at all, that was a misrepresentation.
- 00:04:30.693 --> 00:04:32.729
- That was a misrepresentation. god is love. 1 john, chapter
- 00:04:32.795 --> 00:04:35.164
- God is love. 1 john, chapter four, verses 8 and 16 says, god
- 00:04:35.231 --> 00:04:37.400
- Four, verses 8 and 16 says, god is love. and he was wanting to
- 00:04:37.467 --> 00:04:39.535
- Is love. and he was wanting to operate in love and mercy
- 00:04:39.602 --> 00:04:41.070
- Operate in love and mercy towards us, but, we weren't
- 00:04:41.137 --> 00:04:44.207
- Towards us, but, we weren't allowing him to love us.
- 00:04:44.273 --> 00:04:46.476
- Allowing him to love us. they were just living in
- 00:04:46.542 --> 00:04:47.877
- Sin. and romans 6:16
- 00:04:47.944 --> 00:04:49.712
- Sin. and romans 6:16 says, know ye not, that
- 00:04:49.779 --> 00:04:50.980
- Says, know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves
- 00:04:51.047 --> 00:04:52.515
- To whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants
- 00:04:52.582 --> 00:04:53.916
- Servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey;
- 00:04:53.983 --> 00:04:55.284
- Whether of sin unto
- 00:04:55.785 --> 00:04:56.919
- Whether of sin unto death, or of obedience
- 00:04:56.986 --> 00:04:58.855
- Death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
- 00:04:58.921 --> 00:04:59.956
- Mankind through submitting
- 00:05:00.423 --> 00:05:02.358
- Mankind through submitting to sin was submitting
- 00:05:02.425 --> 00:05:03.760
- To sin was submitting themselves to the devil,
- 00:05:03.826 --> 00:05:05.027
- And satan came only to steal,
- 00:05:05.094 --> 00:05:07.463
- And satan came only to steal, to kill, and to destroy, john,
- 00:05:07.530 --> 00:05:09.766
- To kill, and to destroy, john, chapter 10, verse 10.
- 00:05:09.832 --> 00:05:11.033
- And so sin was giving satan an
- 00:05:11.634 --> 00:05:14.003
- And so sin was giving satan an inroad, and satan was destroying
- 00:05:14.070 --> 00:05:16.305
- Inroad, and satan was destroying the human race. god planned on
- 00:05:16.372 --> 00:05:19.008
- The human race. god planned on jesus coming, but there were
- 00:05:19.075 --> 00:05:20.977
- Jesus coming, but there were certain things that had to be
- 00:05:21.043 --> 00:05:22.578
- Certain things that had to be done before jesus could come. it
- 00:05:22.645 --> 00:05:25.114
- Done before jesus could come. it says in the new testament,
- 00:05:25.181 --> 00:05:26.516
- Says in the new testament, in the fullness of
- 00:05:26.582 --> 00:05:27.717
- In the fullness of times. that means
- 00:05:27.784 --> 00:05:28.851
- Times. that means when the time was ripe, when
- 00:05:28.918 --> 00:05:30.920
- When the time was ripe, when everything was prepared. jesus
- 00:05:30.987 --> 00:05:33.856
- Everything was prepared. jesus came as soon as he could, and it
- 00:05:33.923 --> 00:05:35.491
- Came as soon as he could, and it was approximately 4000 years
- 00:05:35.558 --> 00:05:37.894
- After the fall of adam and eve.
- 00:05:39.061 --> 00:05:41.631
- After the fall of adam and eve. but until jesus could come,
- 00:05:41.697 --> 00:05:44.333
- But until jesus could come, jesus... god had to do something
- 00:05:44.400 --> 00:05:46.669
- Jesus... god had to do something to restrict the amount of sin
- 00:05:46.736 --> 00:05:48.471
- To restrict the amount of sin because it was just giving satan
- 00:05:48.538 --> 00:05:50.039
- Because it was just giving satan free access to people, and they
- 00:05:50.106 --> 00:05:52.074
- Free access to people, and they didn't realize how deadly it
- 00:05:52.141 --> 00:05:53.609
- Didn't realize how deadly it was. so the law came, and the
- 00:05:53.676 --> 00:05:55.812
- Was. so the law came, and the law amplified sin. i'm going to
- 00:05:55.878 --> 00:05:58.314
- Law amplified sin. i'm going to use some of these verses over in
- 00:05:58.381 --> 00:05:59.715
- Use some of these verses over in the book of romans, where it
- 00:05:59.782 --> 00:06:01.284
- The book of romans, where it made... the law, but... made sin
- 00:06:01.350 --> 00:06:03.252
- Made... the law, but... made sin become exceedingly sinful. it
- 00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:05.621
- Become exceedingly sinful. it showed us how bad it was. and a
- 00:06:05.688 --> 00:06:07.623
- Showed us how bad it was. and a verse that i used on my program
- 00:06:07.690 --> 00:06:09.125
- Yesterday, 1 corinthians,
- 00:06:09.192 --> 00:06:10.626
- Yesterday, 1 corinthians, chapter 15, verse 56, it says
- 00:06:10.693 --> 00:06:13.763
- Chapter 15, verse 56, it says that the strength of sin
- 00:06:13.830 --> 00:06:16.265
- That the strength of sin is the law. the law
- 00:06:16.332 --> 00:06:17.834
- Actually strengthened sin
- 00:06:17.900 --> 00:06:20.770
- Actually strengthened sin in its battle against us. it
- 00:06:20.837 --> 00:06:22.271
- In its battle against us. it didn't strengthen us in our
- 00:06:22.338 --> 00:06:24.340
- Didn't strengthen us in our battle against sin. most
- 00:06:24.407 --> 00:06:26.843
- Battle against sin. most christians wouldn't believe
- 00:06:26.909 --> 00:06:27.877
- Christians wouldn't believe this. most christians would
- 00:06:27.944 --> 00:06:28.611
- This. most christians would think, no, the lord gave the law
- 00:06:28.678 --> 00:06:30.246
- Think, no, the lord gave the law to stop sin. well it did limit
- 00:06:30.313 --> 00:06:33.583
- To stop sin. well it did limit the amount of sin through fear.
- 00:06:33.649 --> 00:06:35.251
- The amount of sin through fear. people, because they knew
- 00:06:35.318 --> 00:06:37.253
- They were going to be held
- 00:06:38.387 --> 00:06:39.222
- They were going to be held accountable and that they
- 00:06:39.288 --> 00:06:40.690
- Accountable and that they would be punished, it may have
- 00:06:40.756 --> 00:06:42.592
- Would be punished, it may have restrained the amount of sin,
- 00:06:42.658 --> 00:06:44.927
- Restrained the amount of sin, but it made that sin come alive
- 00:06:44.994 --> 00:06:47.163
- But it made that sin come alive on the inside of them, romans,
- 00:06:47.230 --> 00:06:48.364
- On the inside of them, romans, chapter 7, and it actually
- 00:06:48.431 --> 00:06:50.399
- Chapter 7, and it actually strengthened sin. you know,
- 00:06:50.466 --> 00:06:53.436
- Strengthened sin. you know, here's another illustration,
- 00:06:53.503 --> 00:06:55.271
- Here's another illustration, it's kind of a ridiculous
- 00:06:55.338 --> 00:06:56.506
- It's kind of a ridiculous illustration, but if you can
- 00:06:56.572 --> 00:06:57.573
- Illustration, but if you can follow this, that... that an old
- 00:06:57.640 --> 00:06:59.442
- Follow this, that... that an old bull, you know, just chased
- 00:06:59.509 --> 00:07:01.477
- Bull, you know, just chased every person that came through
- 00:07:01.544 --> 00:07:02.912
- Every person that came through its pasture. it just had this
- 00:07:02.979 --> 00:07:04.580
- Its pasture. it just had this bull mentality, and then the
- 00:07:04.647 --> 00:07:06.782
- Bull mentality, and then the bull gets convicted and says,
- 00:07:06.849 --> 00:07:08.317
- Bull gets convicted and says, you know, i shouldn't be this
- 00:07:08.384 --> 00:07:09.285
- You know, i shouldn't be this way. i'm... i'm going to change.
- 00:07:09.352 --> 00:07:11.387
- Way. i'm... i'm going to change. from now on, i'm not a bull, i'm
- 00:07:11.454 --> 00:07:13.689
- From now on, i'm not a bull, i'm a sheep. did you know that
- 00:07:13.756 --> 00:07:16.726
- A sheep. did you know that that... you can't change your
- 00:07:16.792 --> 00:07:19.729
- That... you can't change your nature just by deciding that
- 00:07:19.795 --> 00:07:22.131
- Nature just by deciding that you're going to change. now this
- 00:07:22.198 --> 00:07:23.966
- You're going to change. now this probably needs more explanation,
- 00:07:24.033 --> 00:07:25.635
- Probably needs more explanation, because today we've got people
- 00:07:25.701 --> 00:07:27.069
- Because today we've got people that think they're born in a
- 00:07:27.136 --> 00:07:28.204
- That think they're born in a man's body and yet they're
- 00:07:28.271 --> 00:07:29.539
- Man's body and yet they're actually a woman trapped in a
- 00:07:29.605 --> 00:07:30.973
- Actually a woman trapped in a man's body. there's people that
- 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:32.642
- Man's body. there's people that are so out of it that they can't
- 00:07:32.708 --> 00:07:34.777
- Are so out of it that they can't even see that whatever you were
- 00:07:34.844 --> 00:07:36.612
- Even see that whatever you were born that's what you are. and so
- 00:07:36.679 --> 00:07:39.115
- Born that's what you are. and so we've got a lot of people
- 00:07:39.181 --> 00:07:40.616
- We've got a lot of people thinking like this old bull,
- 00:07:40.683 --> 00:07:42.051
- Thinking like this old bull, that i'm just going to change my
- 00:07:42.118 --> 00:07:43.286
- That i'm just going to change my nature. i'm not a bull anymore,
- 00:07:43.352 --> 00:07:44.754
- Nature. i'm not a bull anymore, i'm a sheep. so it lays there
- 00:07:44.820 --> 00:07:46.222
- I'm a sheep. so it lays there chewing its cud and trying to
- 00:07:46.289 --> 00:07:48.424
- Chewing its cud and trying to b-a-a instead of snort and
- 00:07:48.491 --> 00:07:51.360
- B-a-a instead of snort and stuff. but you know what? it
- 00:07:51.427 --> 00:07:52.461
- Stuff. but you know what? it doesn't matter what that bull
- 00:07:52.528 --> 00:07:53.629
- Doesn't matter what that bull thinks, it is a bull, and i
- 00:07:53.696 --> 00:07:55.831
- Thinks, it is a bull, and i don't care if you dress it up
- 00:07:55.898 --> 00:07:57.800
- Don't care if you dress it up and if you do other things to
- 00:07:57.867 --> 00:07:59.902
- And if you do other things to it, its nature is still a bull
- 00:07:59.969 --> 00:08:01.537
- It, its nature is still a bull nature. so as long as this bull
- 00:08:01.604 --> 00:08:03.539
- Nature. so as long as this bull thinks that i'm no longer mean
- 00:08:03.606 --> 00:08:05.808
- Thinks that i'm no longer mean like a bull, i'm a... i'm a
- 00:08:05.875 --> 00:08:07.543
- Like a bull, i'm a... i'm a timid, shy, you know, tame
- 00:08:07.610 --> 00:08:10.313
- Timid, shy, you know, tame sheep, just thinking that
- 00:08:10.379 --> 00:08:13.816
- Sheep, just thinking that doesn't change anything. so it
- 00:08:13.883 --> 00:08:15.284
- Doesn't change anything. so it would actually be to that bull's
- 00:08:15.351 --> 00:08:16.819
- Would actually be to that bull's advantage to bring it out of
- 00:08:16.886 --> 00:08:18.387
- Advantage to bring it out of that deception. so you know what
- 00:08:18.454 --> 00:08:20.389
- That deception. so you know what you do? you go wave a red flag
- 00:08:20.456 --> 00:08:22.992
- You do? you go wave a red flag in front of that bull. and that
- 00:08:23.059 --> 00:08:24.827
- In front of that bull. and that red flag did not make that bull
- 00:08:24.894 --> 00:08:26.862
- Red flag did not make that bull angry. that bull's nature was
- 00:08:26.929 --> 00:08:29.865
- Angry. that bull's nature was already aggressive. that was the
- 00:08:29.932 --> 00:08:32.401
- Already aggressive. that was the nature, but it was deceived
- 00:08:32.468 --> 00:08:34.003
- Nature, but it was deceived thinking that, i... i'm not a
- 00:08:34.070 --> 00:08:35.404
- Thinking that, i... i'm not a bull anymore, i'm a sheep. so
- 00:08:35.471 --> 00:08:36.839
- Bull anymore, i'm a sheep. so what you do, you wave a red flag
- 00:08:36.906 --> 00:08:38.474
- What you do, you wave a red flag in front of it, and the wet...
- 00:08:38.541 --> 00:08:39.475
- In front of it, and the wet... red flag doesn't make them all
- 00:08:39.542 --> 00:08:41.344
- Red flag doesn't make them all of a sudden change back to a
- 00:08:41.410 --> 00:08:42.678
- Of a sudden change back to a bull, it just brings them out of
- 00:08:42.745 --> 00:08:44.714
- Bull, it just brings them out of the deception. when that old
- 00:08:44.780 --> 00:08:46.382
- The deception. when that old bull nature rises up and they
- 00:08:46.449 --> 00:08:48.250
- Bull nature rises up and they begin to charge, all of a sudden
- 00:08:48.317 --> 00:08:50.286
- Begin to charge, all of a sudden they realize, whoops, i... i'm
- 00:08:50.353 --> 00:08:52.488
- They realize, whoops, i... i'm not a sheep, i don't care how
- 00:08:52.555 --> 00:08:54.056
- Not a sheep, i don't care how much i say it or how much i try
- 00:08:54.123 --> 00:08:55.891
- Much i say it or how much i try and be one, i am a bull, and it
- 00:08:55.958 --> 00:08:58.728
- And be one, i am a bull, and it reveals what was already inside.
- 00:08:58.794 --> 00:09:01.263
- Reveals what was already inside. in a sense, this is what the law
- 00:09:01.330 --> 00:09:02.898
- In a sense, this is what the law did. the law, for people who
- 00:09:02.965 --> 00:09:05.167
- Did. the law, for people who thought that, you know what, i
- 00:09:05.234 --> 00:09:06.268
- Thought that, you know what, i don't... i'm not like this
- 00:09:06.335 --> 00:09:07.503
- Don't... i'm not like this person over here. i don't kill
- 00:09:07.570 --> 00:09:08.971
- Person over here. i don't kill anybody. i don't rape. i don't
- 00:09:09.038 --> 00:09:10.640
- Anybody. i don't rape. i don't murder. i'm a relatively good
- 00:09:10.706 --> 00:09:12.274
- Murder. i'm a relatively good person. i don't think i need to
- 00:09:12.341 --> 00:09:14.810
- Person. i don't think i need to be forgiven, i'm a good person.
- 00:09:14.877 --> 00:09:17.980
- Be forgiven, i'm a good person. the law said, you think you're
- 00:09:18.047 --> 00:09:19.649
- The law said, you think you're good? thou shalt not, and all of
- 00:09:19.715 --> 00:09:22.652
- Good? thou shalt not, and all of a sudden that sin nature rises
- 00:09:22.718 --> 00:09:25.354
- A sudden that sin nature rises up. when you start putting
- 00:09:25.421 --> 00:09:26.522
- Up. when you start putting restrictions on it and saying,
- 00:09:26.589 --> 00:09:27.790
- Restrictions on it and saying, you can't do this and you can't
- 00:09:27.857 --> 00:09:29.558
- You can't do this and you can't do that, there's something
- 00:09:29.625 --> 00:09:31.227
- Do that, there's something inside of people that just rises
- 00:09:31.293 --> 00:09:32.828
- Inside of people that just rises up and says, bless god, i shall.
- 00:09:32.895 --> 00:09:36.065
- Up and says, bless god, i shall. it's just our fallen human
- 00:09:36.132 --> 00:09:38.000
- It's just our fallen human nature. now when you get born
- 00:09:38.067 --> 00:09:39.301
- Nature. now when you get born again, that nature changes, but
- 00:09:39.368 --> 00:09:41.637
- Again, that nature changes, but until you get born again, it
- 00:09:41.704 --> 00:09:43.539
- Until you get born again, it would be to your advantage to
- 00:09:43.606 --> 00:09:45.775
- Would be to your advantage to come to grips with the fact that
- 00:09:45.841 --> 00:09:48.210
- Come to grips with the fact that you can't change your nature
- 00:09:48.277 --> 00:09:49.879
- You can't change your nature just by thinking it, you've got
- 00:09:49.945 --> 00:09:52.081
- Just by thinking it, you've got to be born again. that bull
- 00:09:52.148 --> 00:09:54.483
- To be born again. that bull can't become a sheep unless it
- 00:09:54.550 --> 00:09:56.118
- Can't become a sheep unless it gets born again a sheep. you
- 00:09:56.185 --> 00:10:00.289
- Gets born again a sheep. you know, i was running a race in
- 00:10:00.356 --> 00:10:01.624
- Know, i was running a race in woodland park, colorado one
- 00:10:01.691 --> 00:10:03.159
- Woodland park, colorado one time. and it was a 6 point ....
- 00:10:03.225 --> 00:10:06.162
- Time. and it was a 6 point .... a 5... it was a... i forgot what
- 00:10:06.228 --> 00:10:08.564
- A 5... it was a... i forgot what it was... 10 k, 6.2-mile race,
- 00:10:08.631 --> 00:10:12.301
- It was... 10 k, 6.2-mile race, and i was running, and i turned
- 00:10:12.368 --> 00:10:14.437
- And i was running, and i turned in a personal best time. i was
- 00:10:14.503 --> 00:10:17.039
- In a personal best time. i was just, i don't know, a hundred
- 00:10:17.106 --> 00:10:18.708
- Just, i don't know, a hundred yards from the finish line or
- 00:10:18.774 --> 00:10:20.609
- Yards from the finish line or something, and i was guaranteed
- 00:10:20.676 --> 00:10:22.645
- Something, and i was guaranteed it would be the best time that
- 00:10:22.712 --> 00:10:23.879
- It would be the best time that i'd ever run. and so i had given
- 00:10:23.946 --> 00:10:25.781
- I'd ever run. and so i had given it all i had, and i just had
- 00:10:25.848 --> 00:10:27.516
- It all i had, and i just had nothing left. and a guy started
- 00:10:27.583 --> 00:10:29.719
- Nothing left. and a guy started to pass me in this race. and as
- 00:10:29.785 --> 00:10:32.855
- To pass me in this race. and as he started to pass me... i'm
- 00:10:32.922 --> 00:10:34.156
- He started to pass me... i'm just a competitor. i don't know
- 00:10:34.223 --> 00:10:36.826
- Just a competitor. i don't know if that's good or bad, but i am
- 00:10:36.892 --> 00:10:39.095
- If that's good or bad, but i am a competitor. my dad taught me
- 00:10:39.161 --> 00:10:40.796
- A competitor. my dad taught me that second place is first
- 00:10:40.863 --> 00:10:43.065
- That second place is first loser. and so, i just... i...
- 00:10:43.132 --> 00:10:45.968
- Loser. and so, i just... i... i've never thrown a game of
- 00:10:46.035 --> 00:10:47.403
- I've never thrown a game of anything. now i'm not a sore
- 00:10:47.470 --> 00:10:48.704
- Anything. now i'm not a sore loser, but i'd never just lose
- 00:10:48.771 --> 00:10:51.841
- Loser, but i'd never just lose if i could win. and so this guy
- 00:10:51.907 --> 00:10:53.776
- If i could win. and so this guy started to pass me, and i tried
- 00:10:53.843 --> 00:10:55.144
- Started to pass me, and i tried to keep up with him, and he
- 00:10:55.211 --> 00:10:56.245
- To keep up with him, and he could tell i was trying to keep
- 00:10:56.312 --> 00:10:57.713
- Could tell i was trying to keep up with him. and so he, you
- 00:10:57.780 --> 00:10:59.782
- Up with him. and so he, you know, got a few steps in front
- 00:10:59.849 --> 00:11:00.983
- Know, got a few steps in front of me and he looked over his
- 00:11:01.050 --> 00:11:02.551
- Of me and he looked over his shoulder and looked back at me
- 00:11:02.618 --> 00:11:03.786
- Shoulder and looked back at me and he says, real sarcastic, he
- 00:11:03.853 --> 00:11:06.155
- And he says, real sarcastic, he says, you could do better than
- 00:11:06.222 --> 00:11:07.923
- Says, you could do better than that. and i'd already just
- 00:11:07.990 --> 00:11:11.727
- That. and i'd already just expended myself. i didn't have
- 00:11:11.794 --> 00:11:14.029
- Expended myself. i didn't have any, you know, extra left. but
- 00:11:14.096 --> 00:11:16.899
- Any, you know, extra left. but when that guy insulted me like
- 00:11:16.966 --> 00:11:18.968
- When that guy insulted me like that, there's just something
- 00:11:19.034 --> 00:11:21.570
- That, there's just something that rose up on the inside of me
- 00:11:21.637 --> 00:11:23.939
- That rose up on the inside of me that says, bless god, i can. and
- 00:11:24.006 --> 00:11:26.408
- That says, bless god, i can. and i just... my adrenaline kicked
- 00:11:26.475 --> 00:11:28.878
- I just... my adrenaline kicked in, and i passed this guy like
- 00:11:28.944 --> 00:11:31.147
- In, and i passed this guy like he was going in reverse. and i
- 00:11:31.213 --> 00:11:33.516
- He was going in reverse. and i got to the finish line, and i
- 00:11:33.582 --> 00:11:35.918
- Got to the finish line, and i beat him by, i don't know, 10 or
- 00:11:35.985 --> 00:11:37.553
- Beat him by, i don't know, 10 or 15 steps. and when i crossed the
- 00:11:37.620 --> 00:11:40.422
- 15 steps. and when i crossed the finish line, i just collapsed.
- 00:11:40.489 --> 00:11:43.025
- Finish line, i just collapsed. my wife jamie was there, and she
- 00:11:43.092 --> 00:11:44.927
- My wife jamie was there, and she had to grab me and drag me out
- 00:11:44.994 --> 00:11:47.429
- Had to grab me and drag me out of the way from the other racers
- 00:11:47.496 --> 00:11:49.498
- Of the way from the other racers and stuff. but my point is that
- 00:11:49.565 --> 00:11:51.734
- And stuff. but my point is that see, when somebody says you
- 00:11:51.801 --> 00:11:53.569
- See, when somebody says you can't do this, you could do
- 00:11:53.636 --> 00:11:55.437
- Can't do this, you could do better than that, and they issue
- 00:11:55.504 --> 00:11:57.573
- Better than that, and they issue a challenge, there's just this
- 00:11:57.640 --> 00:11:58.808
- A challenge, there's just this old sinful nature, this flesh
- 00:11:58.874 --> 00:12:01.243
- Old sinful nature, this flesh that rises up, that bless god, i
- 00:12:01.310 --> 00:12:03.612
- That rises up, that bless god, i can do it. and god knew that.
- 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:06.549
- Can do it. and god knew that. that's why he gave the law. for
- 00:12:06.615 --> 00:12:08.584
- That's why he gave the law. for those who thought that they had
- 00:12:08.651 --> 00:12:10.052
- Those who thought that they had defeated sin and that i've
- 00:12:10.119 --> 00:12:11.954
- Defeated sin and that i've overcome this and that i don't
- 00:12:12.021 --> 00:12:14.223
- Overcome this and that i don't have a problem anymore, god gave
- 00:12:14.290 --> 00:12:16.826
- Have a problem anymore, god gave the law. and just like this
- 00:12:16.892 --> 00:12:17.993
- The law. and just like this says, the law strengthens sin.
- 00:12:18.060 --> 00:12:20.429
- Says, the law strengthens sin. just like it says in romans,
- 00:12:20.496 --> 00:12:21.597
- Just like it says in romans, chapter 7, the law made sin come
- 00:12:21.664 --> 00:12:25.000
- Chapter 7, the law made sin come alive. let me turn over to 2
- 00:12:25.067 --> 00:12:27.136
- Alive. let me turn over to 2 corinthians, chapter 3, and read
- 00:12:27.203 --> 00:12:29.405
- Corinthians, chapter 3, and read a few verses to you that paul
- 00:12:29.471 --> 00:12:31.307
- A few verses to you that paul again was saying about the law.
- 00:12:31.373 --> 00:12:32.775
- It says in verse 6, who hath who
- 00:12:33.108 --> 00:12:34.777
- It says in verse 6, who hath who also hath made us able ministers
- 00:12:34.844 --> 00:12:37.346
- Of the new testament; not of the
- 00:12:37.880 --> 00:12:39.615
- Of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit:
- 00:12:39.682 --> 00:12:41.517
- Letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but
- 00:12:41.584 --> 00:12:43.619
- For the letter kills, but the spirit gives life.
- 00:12:43.686 --> 00:12:45.554
- And i'm going to read
- 00:12:46.021 --> 00:12:46.755
- And i'm going to read some other verses right
- 00:12:46.822 --> 00:12:48.023
- Some other verses right here, but if you take this
- 00:12:48.090 --> 00:12:48.958
- Here, but if you take this in context, when he's
- 00:12:49.024 --> 00:12:50.192
- In context, when he's talking about the letter, he's
- 00:12:50.259 --> 00:12:51.227
- Talking about the letter, he's talking about the law. the
- 00:12:51.293 --> 00:12:52.394
- Talking about the law. the letter, the exact... all of the
- 00:12:52.461 --> 00:12:54.864
- Letter, the exact... all of the precepts of the law, it kills.
- 00:12:54.930 --> 00:12:57.533
- And in verse 7, it says, but if
- 00:12:57.600 --> 00:12:59.201
- And in verse 7, it says, but if the ministration of death,
- 00:12:59.268 --> 00:13:01.503
- The ministration of death, written and engraven in stones,
- 00:13:01.570 --> 00:13:03.772
- Written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the
- 00:13:03.839 --> 00:13:05.107
- Was glorious, so that the children of israel could not
- 00:13:05.174 --> 00:13:06.575
- Children of israel could not steadfastly behold the face of
- 00:13:06.642 --> 00:13:08.777
- Steadfastly behold the face of moses for the glory of his
- 00:13:08.844 --> 00:13:10.512
- Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory
- 00:13:10.579 --> 00:13:12.248
- Countenance; which glory should be done away: how shall
- 00:13:12.314 --> 00:13:14.316
- Should be done away: how shall not the ministration of the
- 00:13:14.383 --> 00:13:15.751
- Not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
- 00:13:15.818 --> 00:13:17.720
- So he's contrasting the
- 00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:19.788
- So he's contrasting the ministration of the spirit that
- 00:13:19.855 --> 00:13:21.223
- Ministration of the spirit that we live under in the new
- 00:13:21.290 --> 00:13:22.391
- We live under in the new testament with the ministration
- 00:13:22.458 --> 00:13:24.360
- Testament with the ministration of death that was written and
- 00:13:24.426 --> 00:13:26.495
- Of death that was written and engraven in stones, the law,
- 00:13:26.562 --> 00:13:28.330
- Engraven in stones, the law, under the old testament. i've
- 00:13:28.397 --> 00:13:30.165
- Under the old testament. i've actually had some people
- 00:13:30.232 --> 00:13:31.200
- Actually had some people challenge me before and say,
- 00:13:31.267 --> 00:13:32.434
- Challenge me before and say, well, the old testament law as
- 00:13:32.501 --> 00:13:35.137
- Well, the old testament law as far as symbolism, like feast
- 00:13:35.204 --> 00:13:38.107
- Far as symbolism, like feast days, and you know, wearing
- 00:13:38.173 --> 00:13:40.643
- Days, and you know, wearing certain garments and things like
- 00:13:40.709 --> 00:13:42.411
- Certain garments and things like this, the symbolism, the
- 00:13:42.478 --> 00:13:43.746
- This, the symbolism, the ceremonial law has been done
- 00:13:43.812 --> 00:13:46.248
- Ceremonial law has been done away with through christ, but we
- 00:13:46.315 --> 00:13:47.917
- Away with through christ, but we still have to keep the basic
- 00:13:47.983 --> 00:13:49.919
- Still have to keep the basic law of the old testament.
- 00:13:49.985 --> 00:13:52.187
- This says, for if the
- 00:13:52.755 --> 00:13:54.323
- This says, for if the ministration of death, which was
- 00:13:54.390 --> 00:13:56.725
- Ministration of death, which was written and engraven in stones.
- 00:13:56.792 --> 00:13:58.727
- The only part of the law that
- 00:13:58.794 --> 00:14:01.063
- The only part of the law that was written and engraven in
- 00:14:01.130 --> 00:14:02.298
- Was written and engraven in stones is talking about the ten
- 00:14:02.364 --> 00:14:04.667
- Stones is talking about the ten commandments that was given in
- 00:14:04.733 --> 00:14:06.068
- Commandments that was given in exodus, chapter 20, and god
- 00:14:06.135 --> 00:14:07.803
- Exodus, chapter 20, and god actually wrote them on pillars
- 00:14:07.870 --> 00:14:10.172
- Actually wrote them on pillars of stone. this is talking about
- 00:14:10.239 --> 00:14:12.641
- Of stone. this is talking about the law, the ten commandments.
- 00:14:12.708 --> 00:14:14.877
- The law, the ten commandments. now, let me just put a
- 00:14:14.944 --> 00:14:16.111
- Now, let me just put a parenthesis here so that nobody
- 00:14:16.178 --> 00:14:18.647
- Parenthesis here so that nobody will misunderstand. i am not
- 00:14:18.714 --> 00:14:20.382
- Will misunderstand. i am not saying that we should ignore the
- 00:14:20.449 --> 00:14:22.017
- Saying that we should ignore the ten commandments. they still
- 00:14:22.084 --> 00:14:24.019
- Ten commandments. they still show us what is right and wrong.
- 00:14:24.086 --> 00:14:26.021
- Show us what is right and wrong. they still show us what god's
- 00:14:26.088 --> 00:14:28.424
- They still show us what god's standard of perfection is. and
- 00:14:28.490 --> 00:14:31.260
- Standard of perfection is. and so there is benefit to knowing
- 00:14:31.327 --> 00:14:34.296
- So there is benefit to knowing what is right and wrong. but,
- 00:14:34.363 --> 00:14:37.399
- What is right and wrong. but, the problem with the law is,
- 00:14:37.466 --> 00:14:39.168
- The problem with the law is, none of us can keep it. none of
- 00:14:39.234 --> 00:14:41.670
- None of us can keep it. none of us can keep the law. somebody
- 00:14:41.737 --> 00:14:43.072
- Us can keep the law. somebody says, well i keep the law. no
- 00:14:43.138 --> 00:14:45.341
- Says, well i keep the law. no you don't. some of the things
- 00:14:45.407 --> 00:14:47.543
- You don't. some of the things you're thinking about me right
- 00:14:47.609 --> 00:14:48.777
- You're thinking about me right now are violating the law. the
- 00:14:48.844 --> 00:14:50.379
- Now are violating the law. the bible says if you think it in
- 00:14:50.446 --> 00:14:51.847
- Bible says if you think it in your heart, if you're angry in
- 00:14:51.914 --> 00:14:53.048
- Your heart, if you're angry in your heart, it's just like
- 00:14:53.115 --> 00:14:54.183
- Your heart, it's just like killing somebody. did you know
- 00:14:54.249 --> 00:14:56.352
- Killing somebody. did you know when jesus came along, he
- 00:14:56.418 --> 00:14:57.820
- When jesus came along, he explained that it wasn't just
- 00:14:57.886 --> 00:14:59.321
- Explained that it wasn't just the physical action, but if you
- 00:14:59.388 --> 00:15:00.723
- The physical action, but if you lust in your heart after a
- 00:15:00.789 --> 00:15:02.257
- Lust in your heart after a woman, you're guilty of
- 00:15:02.324 --> 00:15:03.258
- Woman, you're guilty of adultery. if you hate somebody,
- 00:15:03.325 --> 00:15:05.494
- Adultery. if you hate somebody, you are guilty of murder. and
- 00:15:05.561 --> 00:15:08.464
- You are guilty of murder. and so, he showed that it's not just
- 00:15:08.530 --> 00:15:10.666
- So, he showed that it's not just the physical action, but even
- 00:15:10.733 --> 00:15:12.001
- The physical action, but even the thought of it is sin. if you
- 00:15:12.067 --> 00:15:14.436
- The thought of it is sin. if you take everything that jesus said
- 00:15:14.503 --> 00:15:16.105
- Take everything that jesus said in the sermon on the mount,
- 00:15:16.171 --> 00:15:18.307
- In the sermon on the mount, matthew, chapter 5 through 7, i
- 00:15:18.374 --> 00:15:20.209
- Matthew, chapter 5 through 7, i guarantee there's nobody,
- 00:15:20.275 --> 00:15:21.877
- Guarantee there's nobody, nobody, nobody who has ever
- 00:15:21.944 --> 00:15:24.146
- Nobody, nobody who has ever walked on this planet
- 00:15:24.213 --> 00:15:25.414
- Walked on this planet except for jesus has ever
- 00:15:25.481 --> 00:15:28.083
- Except for jesus has ever kept the law completely.
- 00:15:28.150 --> 00:15:30.152
- And james, chapter 2, verse 10
- 00:15:30.219 --> 00:15:32.154
- And james, chapter 2, verse 10 says, if you keep the law, and
- 00:15:32.221 --> 00:15:33.889
- Says, if you keep the law, and yet offend in one point, you
- 00:15:33.956 --> 00:15:36.425
- Yet offend in one point, you become guilty of all.
- 00:15:36.492 --> 00:15:37.993
- So if you never go out and
- 00:15:38.894 --> 00:15:40.362
- So if you never go out and commit adultery, if you never
- 00:15:40.429 --> 00:15:41.730
- Commit adultery, if you never murder, if you never do these
- 00:15:41.797 --> 00:15:42.965
- Murder, if you never do these things, but yet if you've ever
- 00:15:43.032 --> 00:15:44.466
- Things, but yet if you've ever been selfish, if you've ever
- 00:15:44.533 --> 00:15:46.402
- Been selfish, if you've ever hated somebody in your heart, if
- 00:15:46.468 --> 00:15:48.637
- Hated somebody in your heart, if you've ever lusted in your
- 00:15:48.704 --> 00:15:49.838
- You've ever lusted in your heart, you've broken the law and
- 00:15:49.905 --> 00:15:51.473
- Heart, you've broken the law and you are guilty of murder and
- 00:15:51.540 --> 00:15:53.575
- You are guilty of murder and everything else. i know that
- 00:15:53.642 --> 00:15:56.045
- Everything else. i know that some people don't think that way
- 00:15:56.111 --> 00:15:57.346
- Some people don't think that way and you think, boy, you are just
- 00:15:57.413 --> 00:15:58.547
- And you think, boy, you are just totally off base. that is
- 00:15:58.614 --> 00:15:59.782
- Totally off base. that is exactly what jesus said in
- 00:15:59.848 --> 00:16:02.184
- Exactly what jesus said in matthew, chapter 5 through 7.
- 00:16:02.251 --> 00:16:04.253
- Matthew, chapter 5 through 7. and that's exactly... it calls
- 00:16:04.319 --> 00:16:05.888
- And that's exactly... it calls it right here, this... the...
- 00:16:05.954 --> 00:16:07.289
- It right here, this... the... the law that was written and
- 00:16:07.356 --> 00:16:08.524
- The law that was written and engraven in stones, it calls it
- 00:16:08.590 --> 00:16:09.792
- Engraven in stones, it calls it a ministration of death. did you
- 00:16:09.858 --> 00:16:12.161
- A ministration of death. did you know jesus came to give us life
- 00:16:12.227 --> 00:16:13.862
- Know jesus came to give us life and to give it to us more
- 00:16:13.929 --> 00:16:14.930
- And to give it to us more abundantly, john, chapter 10,
- 00:16:14.997 --> 00:16:16.532
- Abundantly, john, chapter 10, verse 10. there's many
- 00:16:16.598 --> 00:16:18.167
- Verse 10. there's many scriptures in the new testament
- 00:16:18.233 --> 00:16:19.701
- Scriptures in the new testament that equates what god provided
- 00:16:19.768 --> 00:16:22.404
- That equates what god provided through jesus as life. he came
- 00:16:22.471 --> 00:16:24.540
- Through jesus as life. he came to give us life, and... and
- 00:16:24.606 --> 00:16:26.642
- To give us life, and... and death is always associated with
- 00:16:26.708 --> 00:16:28.544
- Death is always associated with sin. this says that this was a
- 00:16:28.610 --> 00:16:30.612
- Sin. this says that this was a ministration of death. the law
- 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.515
- Ministration of death. the law ministered death. and yet, it
- 00:16:33.582 --> 00:16:37.886
- Ministered death. and yet, it was glorious to a degree, it
- 00:16:37.953 --> 00:16:39.788
- Was glorious to a degree, it revealed the true standard of
- 00:16:39.855 --> 00:16:41.523
- Revealed the true standard of god. it's not that what the law
- 00:16:41.590 --> 00:16:43.025
- God. it's not that what the law revealed was wrong. the thing
- 00:16:43.092 --> 00:16:44.726
- Revealed was wrong. the thing that was wrong with the law was
- 00:16:44.793 --> 00:16:46.128
- That was wrong with the law was you and i couldn't keep it. the
- 00:16:46.195 --> 00:16:48.397
- You and i couldn't keep it. the thing that was wrong with the
- 00:16:48.464 --> 00:16:49.498
- Thing that was wrong with the law is that none of us who are
- 00:16:49.565 --> 00:16:51.867
- Law is that none of us who are sinful can live up to a perfect
- 00:16:51.934 --> 00:16:54.770
- Sinful can live up to a perfect standard. and so the law was
- 00:16:54.837 --> 00:16:56.705
- Standard. and so the law was given to make sin come alive,
- 00:16:56.772 --> 00:16:59.007
- Given to make sin come alive, and to kill you and to show you
- 00:16:59.074 --> 00:17:01.043
- And to kill you and to show you that you had death working in
- 00:17:01.110 --> 00:17:02.678
- That you had death working in you. and it was to shut you
- 00:17:02.744 --> 00:17:04.947
- You. and it was to shut you up is what it says in
- 00:17:05.013 --> 00:17:06.014
- Up is what it says in galatians, chapter 3.
- 00:17:06.081 --> 00:17:06.582
- I can't put all of
- 00:17:07.015 --> 00:17:08.283
- These verses together in one
- 00:17:08.283 --> 00:17:09.751
- 30-minute program, but if you'll
- 00:17:09.751 --> 00:17:11.153
- Get all of our product and put
- 00:17:11.153 --> 00:17:13.021
- All of this together. the law
- 00:17:13.021 --> 00:17:14.957
- Had a purpose, and it was to
- 00:17:15.023 --> 00:17:16.358
- Had a purpose, and it was to show you your sin, to make sin
- 00:17:16.425 --> 00:17:19.128
- Show you your sin, to make sin come alive on the inside of you,
- 00:17:19.194 --> 00:17:20.863
- Come alive on the inside of you, to shut you up, to basically
- 00:17:20.929 --> 00:17:22.764
- To shut you up, to basically knock you flat of your back so
- 00:17:22.831 --> 00:17:25.033
- Knock you flat of your back so the only way you could look was
- 00:17:25.100 --> 00:17:26.468
- The only way you could look was up. and yet somehow or another
- 00:17:26.535 --> 00:17:29.037
- Up. and yet somehow or another religion has come along and
- 00:17:29.104 --> 00:17:30.339
- Religion has come along and presented that the law is such a
- 00:17:30.405 --> 00:17:31.840
- Presented that the law is such a wonderful thing that god gave
- 00:17:31.907 --> 00:17:33.475
- Wonderful thing that god gave us. no, the law was given to
- 00:17:33.542 --> 00:17:35.544
- Us. no, the law was given to make sin come alive. it was a
- 00:17:35.611 --> 00:17:37.312
- Make sin come alive. it was a ministration of death.
- 00:17:37.379 --> 00:17:39.214
- And it goes on to say right
- 00:17:39.281 --> 00:17:40.749
- And it goes on to say right here, it says, for if the
- 00:17:40.816 --> 00:17:41.683
- Here, it says, for if the ministration of condemnation be
- 00:17:41.750 --> 00:17:44.119
- Ministration of condemnation be glory. and you take it in its
- 00:17:44.186 --> 00:17:45.954
- Glory. and you take it in its context, it's talking about the
- 00:17:46.021 --> 00:17:47.556
- Context, it's talking about the old testament law. if the
- 00:17:47.623 --> 00:17:49.291
- Old testament law. if the ministration of condemnation be
- 00:17:49.358 --> 00:17:51.126
- Ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the
- 00:17:51.193 --> 00:17:53.162
- Glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness
- 00:17:53.228 --> 00:17:55.564
- Ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. it's
- 00:17:55.631 --> 00:17:57.933
- Contrasting the two. and
- 00:17:58.000 --> 00:18:00.002
- Contrasting the two. and the old testament law, there was
- 00:18:00.068 --> 00:18:01.970
- The old testament law, there was a purpose for it. it was to
- 00:18:02.037 --> 00:18:03.372
- A purpose for it. it was to bring you out of your
- 00:18:03.438 --> 00:18:04.406
- Bring you out of your self-righteousness. it was to
- 00:18:04.473 --> 00:18:06.008
- Self-righteousness. it was to show you how guilty we all stood
- 00:18:06.074 --> 00:18:09.144
- Show you how guilty we all stood so that we would just throw
- 00:18:09.211 --> 00:18:10.412
- So that we would just throw ourself on the mercy of god and
- 00:18:10.479 --> 00:18:12.147
- Ourself on the mercy of god and say, oh god, have mercy on me.
- 00:18:12.214 --> 00:18:14.650
- Say, oh god, have mercy on me. the law was to drive you
- 00:18:14.716 --> 00:18:16.318
- The law was to drive you away from self-salvation,
- 00:18:16.385 --> 00:18:18.187
- Away from self-salvation, self-righteousness, and throw
- 00:18:18.253 --> 00:18:20.422
- Self-righteousness, and throw yourself on the mercy of god.
- 00:18:20.489 --> 00:18:22.291
- Yourself on the mercy of god. and if you use the law for that
- 00:18:22.357 --> 00:18:24.359
- And if you use the law for that purpose, then it's still good.
- 00:18:24.426 --> 00:18:27.029
- Purpose, then it's still good. if a person thinks that somehow
- 00:18:27.095 --> 00:18:28.463
- If a person thinks that somehow or another they're so holy that
- 00:18:28.530 --> 00:18:29.831
- Or another they're so holy that they don't need god, i... i'm
- 00:18:29.898 --> 00:18:32.134
- They don't need god, i... i'm good enough. i don't need god.
- 00:18:32.201 --> 00:18:34.303
- Good enough. i don't need god. or i only need a little bit of
- 00:18:34.369 --> 00:18:35.871
- Or i only need a little bit of god. i'm going to trust in
- 00:18:35.938 --> 00:18:36.872
- God. i'm going to trust in myself 90% and trust that jesus
- 00:18:36.939 --> 00:18:39.074
- Myself 90% and trust that jesus will make up the difference. no,
- 00:18:39.141 --> 00:18:40.842
- Will make up the difference. no, it's either all jesus or it's
- 00:18:40.909 --> 00:18:42.611
- It's either all jesus or it's all you, it's not a combination
- 00:18:42.678 --> 00:18:44.279
- All you, it's not a combination of the two. romans, chapter 11,
- 00:18:44.346 --> 00:18:47.216
- Of the two. romans, chapter 11, verse 6 says, you're saved by
- 00:18:47.282 --> 00:18:48.917
- Verse 6 says, you're saved by grace without works, otherwise
- 00:18:48.984 --> 00:18:50.786
- Grace without works, otherwise grace is no more grace, or
- 00:18:50.852 --> 00:18:52.321
- Grace is no more grace, or you're saved by works without
- 00:18:52.387 --> 00:18:53.822
- You're saved by works without grace, otherwise works is no
- 00:18:53.889 --> 00:18:55.824
- Grace, otherwise works is no more works. that's an old
- 00:18:55.891 --> 00:18:57.926
- More works. that's an old english way of saying you're
- 00:18:57.993 --> 00:18:59.261
- English way of saying you're saved by one or the other, but
- 00:18:59.328 --> 00:19:00.762
- Saved by one or the other, but not a combination of the two.
- 00:19:00.829 --> 00:19:02.831
- Not a combination of the two. you can't proclaim your own
- 00:19:02.898 --> 00:19:04.633
- You can't proclaim your own holiness and just trust jesus to
- 00:19:04.700 --> 00:19:07.436
- Holiness and just trust jesus to make up whatever you lacked. no,
- 00:19:07.502 --> 00:19:09.738
- Make up whatever you lacked. no, you have to turn from your
- 00:19:09.805 --> 00:19:11.139
- You have to turn from your self-righteousness. you have to
- 00:19:11.206 --> 00:19:12.507
- Self-righteousness. you have to turn from maintaining and
- 00:19:12.574 --> 00:19:14.309
- Turn from maintaining and professing any goodness of your
- 00:19:14.376 --> 00:19:16.311
- Professing any goodness of your own and put 100% total faith in
- 00:19:16.378 --> 00:19:20.782
- Own and put 100% total faith in jesus. and there's people
- 00:19:20.849 --> 00:19:22.584
- Jesus. and there's people watching this program right now
- 00:19:22.651 --> 00:19:23.785
- Watching this program right now that you're offended by that
- 00:19:23.852 --> 00:19:24.886
- That you're offended by that because you are a really good
- 00:19:24.953 --> 00:19:26.154
- Because you are a really good person, and relative to me or
- 00:19:26.221 --> 00:19:28.357
- Person, and relative to me or other people, you've lived a
- 00:19:28.423 --> 00:19:29.558
- Other people, you've lived a super holy life, and i'm saying
- 00:19:29.625 --> 00:19:31.860
- Super holy life, and i'm saying that your holiness doesn't make
- 00:19:31.927 --> 00:19:33.629
- That your holiness doesn't make you any closer to god than
- 00:19:33.695 --> 00:19:35.097
- You any closer to god than anybody else? that's what i'm
- 00:19:35.163 --> 00:19:37.099
- Anybody else? that's what i'm saying. now your holiness, if
- 00:19:37.165 --> 00:19:39.001
- Saying. now your holiness, if you haven't gone out and done
- 00:19:39.067 --> 00:19:40.135
- You haven't gone out and done things, it may benefit you in
- 00:19:40.202 --> 00:19:41.570
- Things, it may benefit you in your relationship with people.
- 00:19:41.637 --> 00:19:43.305
- Your relationship with people. it may keep you out of jail. it
- 00:19:43.372 --> 00:19:45.207
- It may keep you out of jail. it may keep you from getting
- 00:19:45.274 --> 00:19:46.308
- May keep you from getting tickets. it may keep you from
- 00:19:46.375 --> 00:19:48.310
- Tickets. it may keep you from having some things. but as far
- 00:19:48.377 --> 00:19:50.078
- Having some things. but as far as your relationship with god,
- 00:19:50.145 --> 00:19:51.847
- As your relationship with god, if you've got the slightest
- 00:19:51.913 --> 00:19:53.649
- If you've got the slightest bit of sin in your
- 00:19:53.715 --> 00:19:55.150
- Life, which romans
- 00:19:55.217 --> 00:19:56.251
- Life, which romans 3:23 says, all have
- 00:19:56.318 --> 00:19:58.420
- 3:23 says, all have sinned and come short
- 00:19:58.487 --> 00:20:00.022
- Sinned and come short of the glory of god.
- 00:20:00.088 --> 00:20:01.089
- If you've got the slightest
- 00:20:01.156 --> 00:20:02.557

- 00:20:02.624 --> 00:20:04.293
- Bit of sin in your life, you have failed, and
- 00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:05.961
- You have failed, and you cannot have a
- 00:20:06.028 --> 00:20:07.529
- You cannot have a relationship with god through
- 00:20:07.596 --> 00:20:09.464
- Relationship with god through your own holiness. and that
- 00:20:09.531 --> 00:20:12.401
- Your own holiness. and that offends people who think that
- 00:20:12.467 --> 00:20:14.169
- Offends people who think that they are living a super holy
- 00:20:14.236 --> 00:20:15.537
- They are living a super holy life. on the other hand, did you
- 00:20:15.604 --> 00:20:17.639
- Life. on the other hand, did you know that this will really bless
- 00:20:17.706 --> 00:20:18.907
- Know that this will really bless people who feel like, man, i've
- 00:20:18.974 --> 00:20:20.342

- 00:20:23.412 --> 00:20:25.180
- Me? did you know if you understand what i'm saying, all
- 00:20:25.247 --> 00:20:27.716

- What you've done. actually, the hardest people to get to trust
- 00:20:55.277 --> 00:20:57.112
- Hardest people to get to trust jesus 100% are religious good
- 00:20:57.179 --> 00:21:00.682

- Sin. your sin would be like this little cup with a little bit of
- 00:22:05.781 --> 00:22:07.182
- Little cup with a little bit of water in it compared to putting
- 00:22:07.249 --> 00:22:08.917
