  • Broadcast of the gospel truth.
  • 00:00:30.620 --> 00:00:32.956
  • 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
  • More than you love yourself. god
  • 00:00:38.995 --> 00:00:40.964
  • 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

  • May keep you from getting tickets. it may keep you from

  • 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

  • Life, which romans
  • 00:19:55.217 --> 00:19:56.251

  • If you've got the slightest bit of sin in your life,
  • 00:20:02.624 --> 00:20:04.293
  • Bit of sin in your life, you have failed, and

  • 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

  • I've lived such a sinful life, how could god ever accept
  • 00:20:21.977 --> 00:20:23.345
  • Life, how could god ever accept me? did you know if you
  • 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
  • Understand what i'm saying, all of us were separated from god.
  • 00:20:27.783 --> 00:20:29.685
  • Of us were separated from god. nobody... at the foot of the

  • 00:20:36.458 --> 00:20:38.593
  • Has a leg up on another person. if you are the worst sinner
  • 00:20:38.660 --> 00:20:40.062
  • If you are the worst sinner that's ever lived, the grace of
  • 00:20:40.128 --> 00:20:42.230
  • That's ever lived, the grace of the lord jesus christ will atone
  • 00:20:42.297 --> 00:20:44.866

  • 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
  • Jesus 100% are religious good people, because they don't want
  • 00:21:00.749 --> 00:21:02.084
  • People, because they don't want to give up their goodness. they
  • 00:21:02.150 --> 00:21:03.418
  • To give up their goodness. they want to just add jesus to their
  • 00:21:03.485 --> 00:21:05.354
  • Want to just add jesus to their goodness. but no, the moment you
  • 00:21:05.420 --> 00:21:07.589
  • Goodness. but no, the moment you try and put your goodness with
  • 00:21:07.656 --> 00:21:09.858
  • Try and put your goodness with what jesus has done, you've
  • 00:21:09.925 --> 00:21:11.293
  • What jesus has done, you've polluted and corrupted the whole
  • 00:21:11.360 --> 00:21:13.495
  • Polluted and corrupted the whole thing. therefore, people who
  • 00:21:13.562 --> 00:21:15.564
  • Thing. therefore, people who know that they have no goodness
  • 00:21:15.630 --> 00:21:17.366
  • Know that they have no goodness to stand on whatsoever, when
  • 00:21:17.432 --> 00:21:18.900
