  • 00:00:27.383 --> 00:00:29.219
  • The most foundational things
  • 00:00:29.219 --> 00:00:31.020
  • That the lord ever showed me. i
  • 00:00:31.020 --> 00:00:32.255
  • Actually started teaching on
  • 00:00:32.255 --> 00:00:33.623
  • This back in the 1980s. and what
  • 00:00:33.623 --> 00:00:36.893
  • This does, i...there's a
  • 00:00:36.893 --> 00:00:38.428
  • Multitude of things that comes
  • 00:00:38.428 --> 00:00:40.063
  • Out of this series, but one of
  • 00:00:40.063 --> 00:00:41.264
  • The things that this does is
  • 00:00:41.264 --> 00:00:43.166
  • Harmonize the harshness and the
  • 00:00:43.166 --> 00:00:45.735
  • Wrath that is exhibited in the
  • 00:00:45.735 --> 00:00:47.937
  • Old covenant with the love and
  • 00:00:47.937 --> 00:00:50.173
  • The mercy under the new
  • 00:00:50.173 --> 00:00:51.941
  • Covenant, and it brings it all
  • 00:00:51.941 --> 00:00:53.743
  • Together to show you the one
  • 00:00:53.743 --> 00:00:55.478
  • True nature of god. that is the
  • 00:00:55.478 --> 00:00:57.747
  • Title of this teaching. i've got
  • 00:00:57.747 --> 00:00:59.949
  • This book on that, and i've got
  • 00:00:59.949 --> 00:01:01.217
  • This little booklet that is a
  • 00:01:01.217 --> 00:01:02.552
  • Brief introduction to that, and
  • 00:01:02.552 --> 00:01:04.087
  • Then we have cds, usbs, and a
  • 00:01:04.087 --> 00:01:07.123
  • Dvd on this. and this is
  • 00:01:07.123 --> 00:01:09.859
  • Just...i sometimes call
  • 00:01:09.859 --> 00:01:11.394
  • This christianity 101.
  • 00:01:11.394 --> 00:01:14.731
  • Because if you don't
  • 00:01:14.797 --> 00:01:15.698
  • Because if you don't understand what god is
  • 00:01:15.765 --> 00:01:17.100
  • Understand what god is like, then you are going to be
  • 00:01:17.167 --> 00:01:19.736
  • Like, then you are going to be easily misled by the devil, and
  • 00:01:19.802 --> 00:01:21.771
  • Easily misled by the devil, and i guarantee you, satan is out to
  • 00:01:21.838 --> 00:01:23.273
  • I guarantee you, satan is out to discredit god and to hinder your
  • 00:01:23.339 --> 00:01:26.176
  • Discredit god and to hinder your relationship with him. because
  • 00:01:26.242 --> 00:01:27.644
  • Relationship with him. because if you ever get to where you
  • 00:01:27.710 --> 00:01:28.945
  • If you ever get to where you truly understand the true nature
  • 00:01:29.012 --> 00:01:31.981
  • Truly understand the true nature of god and get to where you have
  • 00:01:32.048 --> 00:01:33.983
  • Of god and get to where you have this intimate love relationship
  • 00:01:34.050 --> 00:01:36.319
  • This intimate love relationship with god...the bible says
  • 00:01:36.386 --> 00:01:37.954
  • With god...the bible says in galatians 5:6, the latter
  • 00:01:38.021 --> 00:01:39.656
  • Part of that verse, faith
  • 00:01:39.722 --> 00:01:40.990
  • Part of that verse, faith works by love. and if
  • 00:01:41.057 --> 00:01:42.859
  • You ever get plugged
  • 00:01:42.926 --> 00:01:43.960
  • You ever get plugged into all of this, i guarantee
  • 00:01:44.027 --> 00:01:45.528
  • Into all of this, i guarantee you your faith is going
  • 00:01:45.595 --> 00:01:46.863
  • You your faith is going to abound. you are going
  • 00:01:46.930 --> 00:01:48.264
  • To abound. you are going to start being blessed and
  • 00:01:48.331 --> 00:01:50.500
  • To start being blessed and receiving things from god that
  • 00:01:50.567 --> 00:01:52.168
  • Receiving things from god that you've never received before.
  • 00:01:52.235 --> 00:01:53.937
  • You've never received before. and you will be a testimony, and
  • 00:01:54.003 --> 00:01:56.673
  • And you will be a testimony, and a witness, for the lord that
  • 00:01:56.739 --> 00:01:58.308
  • A witness, for the lord that you've never been before. you
  • 00:01:58.374 --> 00:02:00.076
  • You've never been before. you know, sad to say, many people
  • 00:02:00.143 --> 00:02:01.878
  • Know, sad to say, many people who have cried out to the lord
  • 00:02:01.945 --> 00:02:03.379
  • Who have cried out to the lord and they are born again, they've
  • 00:02:03.446 --> 00:02:04.681
  • And they are born again, they've received salvation, but they
  • 00:02:04.747 --> 00:02:06.449
  • Received salvation, but they don't ever grow and because of
  • 00:02:06.516 --> 00:02:08.084
  • Don't ever grow and because of it, they aren't a good witness.
  • 00:02:08.151 --> 00:02:10.019
  • It, they aren't a good witness. if people were to look at them,
  • 00:02:10.086 --> 00:02:11.588
  • If people were to look at them, they would think, man, i'm not
  • 00:02:11.654 --> 00:02:12.655
  • They would think, man, i'm not sure i want to be a christian.
  • 00:02:12.722 --> 00:02:14.457
  • Sure i want to be a christian. i'm not saying that to be
  • 00:02:14.524 --> 00:02:15.458
  • I'm not saying that to be critical, but i'm just saying
  • 00:02:15.525 --> 00:02:16.726
  • Critical, but i'm just saying that that is a reality. and if
  • 00:02:16.793 --> 00:02:18.962
  • That that is a reality. and if people were to really
  • 00:02:19.028 --> 00:02:19.696
  • Plug into the true nature
  • 00:02:20.263 --> 00:02:22.232
  • Of god and find out who
  • 00:02:22.232 --> 00:02:24.067
  • He is, they would love
  • 00:02:24.067 --> 00:02:25.835
  • Him so much, they would
  • 00:02:25.902 --> 00:02:27.003
  • Him so much, they would ss...they would just devote
  • 00:02:27.070 --> 00:02:28.404
  • Ss...they would just devote everything they've got to god.
  • 00:02:28.471 --> 00:02:30.740
  • Everything they've got to god. but god has been misrepresented.
  • 00:02:30.807 --> 00:02:33.710
  • But god has been misrepresented. and because of it, there's a lot
  • 00:02:33.776 --> 00:02:35.144
  • And because of it, there's a lot of people that have this
  • 00:02:35.211 --> 00:02:36.813
  • Of people that have this intuitive knowledge. they know
  • 00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:38.648
  • Intuitive knowledge. they know that they've sinned and come
  • 00:02:38.715 --> 00:02:39.916
  • That they've sinned and come short of the glory of god. they
  • 00:02:39.983 --> 00:02:41.884
  • Short of the glory of god. they know that there is going to be a
  • 00:02:41.951 --> 00:02:43.119
  • Know that there is going to be a day of reckoning and so they
  • 00:02:43.186 --> 00:02:45.154
  • Day of reckoning and so they come, and they make peace with
  • 00:02:45.221 --> 00:02:47.023
  • Come, and they make peace with god through accepting jesus. but
  • 00:02:47.090 --> 00:02:49.759
  • God through accepting jesus. but once they get an assurance of
  • 00:02:49.826 --> 00:02:52.128
  • Once they get an assurance of their salvation, there are
  • 00:02:52.195 --> 00:02:54.230
  • Their salvation, there are multitude of christians that
  • 00:02:54.297 --> 00:02:55.832
  • Multitude of christians that just don't have a motivation to
  • 00:02:55.898 --> 00:02:58.101
  • Just don't have a motivation to go any further and any deeper
  • 00:02:58.167 --> 00:02:59.869
  • Go any further and any deeper with god because again, they
  • 00:02:59.936 --> 00:03:01.070
  • With god because again, they don't see god as this loving,
  • 00:03:01.137 --> 00:03:03.740
  • Don't see god as this loving, kind, heavenly father. they see
  • 00:03:03.806 --> 00:03:06.009
  • Kind, heavenly father. they see him as a harsh, angry god. and
  • 00:03:06.075 --> 00:03:09.212
  • Him as a harsh, angry god. and i'm going to make a statement
  • 00:03:09.279 --> 00:03:10.113
  • I'm going to make a statement right here that i...i pray
  • 00:03:10.179 --> 00:03:11.681
  • Right here that i...i pray you...you listen and understand
  • 00:03:11.748 --> 00:03:15.251
  • You...you listen and understand what i'm saying because somebody
  • 00:03:15.318 --> 00:03:16.552
  • What i'm saying because somebody could misunderstand what i'm
  • 00:03:16.619 --> 00:03:17.820
  • Could misunderstand what i'm saying. but there are
  • 00:03:17.887 --> 00:03:19.756
  • Saying. but there are scriptures, there are biblical
  • 00:03:19.822 --> 00:03:22.125
  • Scriptures, there are biblical examples that if taken wrong,
  • 00:03:22.191 --> 00:03:25.061
  • Examples that if taken wrong, will give the wrong impression
  • 00:03:25.128 --> 00:03:27.063
  • Will give the wrong impression of god, and many christians
  • 00:03:27.130 --> 00:03:29.465
  • Of god, and many christians honestly see god as this harsh
  • 00:03:29.532 --> 00:03:32.201
  • Honestly see god as this harsh god that it is nearly impossible
  • 00:03:32.268 --> 00:03:34.771
  • God that it is nearly impossible to please. and because of that,
  • 00:03:34.837 --> 00:03:36.839
  • To please. and because of that, they do just enough to get an
  • 00:03:36.906 --> 00:03:38.775
  • They do just enough to get an assurance that if they were to
  • 00:03:38.841 --> 00:03:40.043
  • Assurance that if they were to die, they would go to heaven,
  • 00:03:40.109 --> 00:03:41.644
  • Die, they would go to heaven, but they aren't really motivated
  • 00:03:41.711 --> 00:03:43.780
  • But they aren't really motivated to get close to god because some
  • 00:03:43.846 --> 00:03:45.581
  • To get close to god because some people teach that god is the one
  • 00:03:45.648 --> 00:03:47.083
  • People teach that god is the one who puts sickness on you. he's
  • 00:03:47.150 --> 00:03:48.518
  • Who puts sickness on you. he's liable to give you an incurable
  • 00:03:48.584 --> 00:03:50.620
  • Liable to give you an incurable disease. he's easily ticked off.
  • 00:03:50.687 --> 00:03:53.923
  • Disease. he's easily ticked off. you...it's just impossible to
  • 00:03:53.990 --> 00:03:55.858
  • You...it's just impossible to please him. and so, there's many
  • 00:03:55.925 --> 00:03:57.660
  • Please him. and so, there's many people doing just enough to
  • 00:03:57.727 --> 00:03:59.729
  • People doing just enough to maintain their faith that they
  • 00:03:59.796 --> 00:04:02.265
  • Maintain their faith that they are going to go to heaven when
  • 00:04:02.332 --> 00:04:03.700
  • Are going to go to heaven when they die, but they don't want to
  • 00:04:03.766 --> 00:04:05.034
  • They die, but they don't want to really seek god. and i guarantee
  • 00:04:05.101 --> 00:04:07.136
  • Really seek god. and i guarantee you, any person that isn't just
  • 00:04:07.203 --> 00:04:10.106
  • You, any person that isn't just absolutely sold out and
  • 00:04:10.173 --> 00:04:12.175
  • Absolutely sold out and passionate about god has a
  • 00:04:12.241 --> 00:04:14.344
  • Passionate about god has a misunderstanding of the true
  • 00:04:14.410 --> 00:04:16.412
  • Misunderstanding of the true nature of god. now that's a big
  • 00:04:16.479 --> 00:04:18.481
  • Nature of god. now that's a big statement. and i know that
  • 00:04:18.548 --> 00:04:20.049
  • Statement. and i know that there's people watching this
  • 00:04:20.116 --> 00:04:21.117
  • There's people watching this program that you are a
  • 00:04:21.184 --> 00:04:22.752
  • Program that you are a christian, but you wouldn't
  • 00:04:22.819 --> 00:04:23.920
  • Christian, but you wouldn't consider yourself a fanatic. you
  • 00:04:23.986 --> 00:04:25.788
  • Consider yourself a fanatic. you wouldn't consider yourself sold
  • 00:04:25.855 --> 00:04:27.523
  • Wouldn't consider yourself sold out to god and seeking him with
  • 00:04:27.590 --> 00:04:29.158
  • Out to god and seeking him with your whole heart. and i'm saying
  • 00:04:29.225 --> 00:04:32.362
  • Your whole heart. and i'm saying that if that's you, you don't
  • 00:04:32.428 --> 00:04:34.697
  • That if that's you, you don't really know who god is. if you
  • 00:04:34.764 --> 00:04:36.466
  • Really know who god is. if you knew who he was and how he's
  • 00:04:36.532 --> 00:04:37.934
  • Knew who he was and how he's made himself available to us and
  • 00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:40.336
  • Made himself available to us and what he's wanting to do in our
  • 00:04:40.403 --> 00:04:41.404
  • What he's wanting to do in our life, i guarantee you, you would
  • 00:04:41.471 --> 00:04:42.739
  • Life, i guarantee you, you would give him everything you've got.
  • 00:04:42.805 --> 00:04:45.208
  • Give him everything you've got. you would serve him out of love,
  • 00:04:45.274 --> 00:04:47.076
  • You would serve him out of love, and yet many people are serving
  • 00:04:47.143 --> 00:04:48.711
  • And yet many people are serving god out of fear, out of doing
  • 00:04:48.778 --> 00:04:50.813
  • God out of fear, out of doing just enough trying to placate an
  • 00:04:50.880 --> 00:04:53.716
  • Just enough trying to placate an angry god. and if that's
  • 00:04:53.783 --> 00:04:55.418
  • Angry god. and if that's your attitude, you don't
  • 00:04:55.485 --> 00:04:56.652
  • Your attitude, you don't truly know god.
  • 00:04:56.719 --> 00:04:57.186
  • So this is christianity
  • 00:04:57.720 --> 00:04:59.055
  • 101. this is basic, basic stuff.
  • 00:04:59.055 --> 00:05:03.025
  • You know, before i get into the
  • 00:05:03.092 --> 00:05:04.327
  • You know, before i get into the scriptures on this, let me just
  • 00:05:04.394 --> 00:05:06.129
  • Scriptures on this, let me just start with an illustration that,
  • 00:05:06.195 --> 00:05:08.364
  • Start with an illustration that, you know, i've had horses most
  • 00:05:08.431 --> 00:05:09.932
  • You know, i've had horses most of my life, and i remember when
  • 00:05:09.999 --> 00:05:11.934
  • Of my life, and i remember when my boys were young, they really
  • 00:05:12.001 --> 00:05:14.170
  • My boys were young, they really wanted a horse, and i'd had
  • 00:05:14.237 --> 00:05:16.272
  • Wanted a horse, and i'd had horses when i was young, and so
  • 00:05:16.339 --> 00:05:18.741
  • Horses when i was young, and so we prayed. and anyway, jamie, we
  • 00:05:18.808 --> 00:05:21.310
  • We prayed. and anyway, jamie, we didn't really have a lot of
  • 00:05:21.377 --> 00:05:22.278
  • Didn't really have a lot of money, and she said we hadn't
  • 00:05:22.345 --> 00:05:24.414
  • Money, and she said we hadn't got enough money to go out and
  • 00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:26.115
  • Got enough money to go out and buy a horse and do all of this.
  • 00:05:26.182 --> 00:05:27.583
  • Buy a horse and do all of this. and i said, if we had somebody
  • 00:05:27.650 --> 00:05:29.085
  • And i said, if we had somebody give us a horse, would that
  • 00:05:29.152 --> 00:05:31.020
  • Give us a horse, would that work? and she says, well, if
  • 00:05:31.087 --> 00:05:33.089
  • Work? and she says, well, if it's given to us, we could
  • 00:05:33.156 --> 00:05:34.190
  • It's given to us, we could probably do that. so anyway, we
  • 00:05:34.257 --> 00:05:36.292
  • Probably do that. so anyway, we prayed, and i mean within a very
  • 00:05:36.359 --> 00:05:38.628
  • Prayed, and i mean within a very short period of time, i had six
  • 00:05:38.694 --> 00:05:40.163
  • Short period of time, i had six horses given to me. i didn't say
  • 00:05:40.229 --> 00:05:41.764
  • Horses given to me. i didn't say anything to anybody, but we had
  • 00:05:41.831 --> 00:05:43.099
  • Anything to anybody, but we had a lot of horses. and anyway,
  • 00:05:43.166 --> 00:05:45.568
  • A lot of horses. and anyway, even though those horses were
  • 00:05:45.635 --> 00:05:46.702
  • Even though those horses were given to me, there is an
  • 00:05:46.769 --> 00:05:47.837
  • Given to me, there is an expression that they eat like a
  • 00:05:47.904 --> 00:05:49.372
  • Expression that they eat like a horse. there's a reason that
  • 00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:50.940
  • Horse. there's a reason that they have that expression
  • 00:05:51.007 --> 00:05:52.275
  • They have that expression because a horse eats 24 hours a
  • 00:05:52.341 --> 00:05:54.610
  • Because a horse eats 24 hours a day. a cow will eat and lay down
  • 00:05:54.677 --> 00:05:56.479
  • Day. a cow will eat and lay down and chew its cud, but a horse
  • 00:05:56.546 --> 00:05:57.847
  • And chew its cud, but a horse just eats all of the time. and
  • 00:05:57.914 --> 00:06:00.349
  • Just eats all of the time. and so anyway, it's a long story,
  • 00:06:00.416 --> 00:06:01.551
  • So anyway, it's a long story, but i had these two horses given
  • 00:06:01.617 --> 00:06:03.953
  • But i had these two horses given to me, and then i had the foal
  • 00:06:04.020 --> 00:06:06.622
  • To me, and then i had the foal of these two horses, two foals
  • 00:06:06.689 --> 00:06:08.925
  • Of these two horses, two foals given to me. they were arabs and
  • 00:06:08.991 --> 00:06:11.360
  • Given to me. they were arabs and it was a beautiful foal, but
  • 00:06:11.427 --> 00:06:13.696
  • It was a beautiful foal, but anyway, they gave me this foal
  • 00:06:13.763 --> 00:06:15.231
  • Anyway, they gave me this foal and the people who gave this
  • 00:06:15.298 --> 00:06:16.666
  • And the people who gave this horse to me were going to be
  • 00:06:16.732 --> 00:06:18.134
  • Horse to me were going to be moving. and so they said we've
  • 00:06:18.201 --> 00:06:20.269
  • Moving. and so they said we've got to have this horse off the
  • 00:06:20.336 --> 00:06:21.571
  • Got to have this horse off the property by such and such a date
  • 00:06:21.637 --> 00:06:23.239
  • Property by such and such a date because they were moving and so
  • 00:06:23.306 --> 00:06:25.641
  • Because they were moving and so they said, if you can get these
  • 00:06:25.708 --> 00:06:26.943
  • They said, if you can get these horses, you can have them. now
  • 00:06:27.009 --> 00:06:29.045
  • Horses, you can have them. now they were three years old or
  • 00:06:29.111 --> 00:06:30.913
  • They were three years old or maybe just under three years old
  • 00:06:30.980 --> 00:06:33.649
  • Maybe just under three years old and they had never been touched
  • 00:06:33.716 --> 00:06:36.118
  • And they had never been touched or anything. they just lived in
  • 00:06:36.185 --> 00:06:37.687
  • Or anything. they just lived in a pasture. when...when they were
  • 00:06:37.753 --> 00:06:39.021
  • A pasture. when...when they were born, the...one of the horses
  • 00:06:39.088 --> 00:06:41.424
  • Born, the...one of the horses had a halter put on when it was
  • 00:06:41.491 --> 00:06:43.793
  • Had a halter put on when it was just brand newborn, but it was
  • 00:06:43.860 --> 00:06:45.728
  • Just brand newborn, but it was approaching three years old, and
  • 00:06:45.795 --> 00:06:47.763
  • Approaching three years old, and as its muzzle grew, the halter
  • 00:06:47.830 --> 00:06:49.899
  • As its muzzle grew, the halter was beginning to grow into its
  • 00:06:49.966 --> 00:06:51.467
  • Was beginning to grow into its face. it was going to deform it,
  • 00:06:51.534 --> 00:06:53.102
  • Face. it was going to deform it, so that needed to be fixed.
  • 00:06:53.169 --> 00:06:54.670
  • So that needed to be fixed. plus, these people were moving,
  • 00:06:54.737 --> 00:06:56.672
  • Plus, these people were moving, and they couldn't keep these
  • 00:06:56.739 --> 00:06:58.207
  • And they couldn't keep these horses. so, i paid two cowboys
  • 00:06:58.274 --> 00:07:01.010
  • Horses. so, i paid two cowboys $350 to go catch these two
  • 00:07:01.077 --> 00:07:05.014
  • $350 to go catch these two horses. and over two weekends,
  • 00:07:05.081 --> 00:07:07.250
  • Horses. and over two weekends, both of them got sent to the
  • 00:07:07.316 --> 00:07:08.484
  • Both of them got sent to the hospital. these horses were
  • 00:07:08.551 --> 00:07:09.952
  • Hospital. these horses were absolutely wild, and they gave
  • 00:07:10.019 --> 00:07:12.788
  • Absolutely wild, and they gave me back my money and they said,
  • 00:07:12.855 --> 00:07:14.056
  • Me back my money and they said, it's not worth it. and so, i
  • 00:07:14.123 --> 00:07:16.425
  • It's not worth it. and so, i only had one week before these
  • 00:07:16.492 --> 00:07:18.327
  • Only had one week before these horses were...we...they were
  • 00:07:18.394 --> 00:07:20.029
  • Horses were...we...they were going to call the humane society
  • 00:07:20.096 --> 00:07:21.597
  • Going to call the humane society and have them shot and put down.
  • 00:07:21.664 --> 00:07:24.133
  • And have them shot and put down. and yet, we wanted these horses.
  • 00:07:24.200 --> 00:07:26.002
  • And yet, we wanted these horses. so, i prayed about it, and
  • 00:07:26.068 --> 00:07:27.403
  • So, i prayed about it, and anyway, the lord showed me how
  • 00:07:27.470 --> 00:07:28.571
  • Anyway, the lord showed me how to catch this horse. i'm not
  • 00:07:28.638 --> 00:07:29.672
  • To catch this horse. i'm not going to go into all the
  • 00:07:29.739 --> 00:07:30.540
  • Going to go into all the details, but i caught this
  • 00:07:30.606 --> 00:07:32.875
  • Details, but i caught this horse...and let me just put a
  • 00:07:32.942 --> 00:07:34.410
  • Horse...and let me just put a disclaimer on what i'm sharing
  • 00:07:34.477 --> 00:07:36.045
  • Disclaimer on what i'm sharing right here. for those of you who
  • 00:07:36.112 --> 00:07:37.413
  • Right here. for those of you who really love horses, you are
  • 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:39.749
  • Really love horses, you are going to be very upset with me,
  • 00:07:39.815 --> 00:07:41.417
  • Going to be very upset with me, and i apologize in advance for
  • 00:07:41.484 --> 00:07:43.986
  • And i apologize in advance for what i did. i didn't know what i
  • 00:07:44.053 --> 00:07:45.922
  • What i did. i didn't know what i was doing, but i needed to catch
  • 00:07:45.988 --> 00:07:48.291
  • Was doing, but i needed to catch this horse. so, anyway, this
  • 00:07:48.357 --> 00:07:51.294
  • This horse. so, anyway, this horse had gotten to where it
  • 00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:52.528
  • Horse had gotten to where it would eat out of a...a...a
  • 00:07:52.595 --> 00:07:54.997
  • Would eat out of a...a...a bucket, a small bucket, and they
  • 00:07:55.064 --> 00:07:57.300
  • Bucket, a small bucket, and they would put oats there and the
  • 00:07:57.366 --> 00:07:58.267
  • Would put oats there and the horse would come and eat. so
  • 00:07:58.334 --> 00:07:59.535
  • Horse would come and eat. so what i did, i got a five gallon
  • 00:07:59.602 --> 00:08:01.137
  • What i did, i got a five gallon bucket, and i put oats in it,
  • 00:08:01.203 --> 00:08:02.805
  • Bucket, and i put oats in it, and i let the horse eat out of
  • 00:08:02.872 --> 00:08:04.540
  • And i let the horse eat out of it for three or four days and it
  • 00:08:04.607 --> 00:08:05.908
  • It for three or four days and it got used to putting its head
  • 00:08:05.975 --> 00:08:07.677
  • Got used to putting its head down with me standing about 10
  • 00:08:07.743 --> 00:08:09.245
  • Down with me standing about 10 feet away, and it allowed me to
  • 00:08:09.312 --> 00:08:11.380
  • Feet away, and it allowed me to do that. and so finally i got
  • 00:08:11.447 --> 00:08:12.848
  • Do that. and so finally i got this nylon rope, a real stiff
  • 00:08:12.915 --> 00:08:16.352
  • This nylon rope, a real stiff rope, and i put it around this
  • 00:08:16.419 --> 00:08:18.888
  • Rope, and i put it around this five gallon bucket and put grass
  • 00:08:18.955 --> 00:08:21.324
  • Five gallon bucket and put grass and stuff over it. and when this
  • 00:08:21.390 --> 00:08:23.092
  • And stuff over it. and when this horse stuck its head in that
  • 00:08:23.159 --> 00:08:25.394
  • Horse stuck its head in that bucket, i just flipped this rope
  • 00:08:25.461 --> 00:08:27.897
  • Bucket, i just flipped this rope over, it was a slipknot, and it
  • 00:08:27.964 --> 00:08:29.799
  • Over, it was a slipknot, and it lassoed this horse. i'm not much
  • 00:08:29.865 --> 00:08:31.634
  • Lassoed this horse. i'm not much of a cowboy, so i couldn't just
  • 00:08:31.701 --> 00:08:33.469
  • Of a cowboy, so i couldn't just lasso it. that's the way i
  • 00:08:33.536 --> 00:08:34.637
  • Lasso it. that's the way i caught it. and when this wild
  • 00:08:34.704 --> 00:08:36.839
  • Caught it. and when this wild horse had that noose around its
  • 00:08:36.906 --> 00:08:39.675
  • Horse had that noose around its neck, it went wild. the name of
  • 00:08:39.742 --> 00:08:42.178
  • Neck, it went wild. the name of this horse was el shaddai, which
  • 00:08:42.244 --> 00:08:44.614
  • This horse was el shaddai, which is a name of god, the many
  • 00:08:44.680 --> 00:08:46.082
  • Is a name of god, the many breasted one, or more than
  • 00:08:46.148 --> 00:08:47.383
  • Breasted one, or more than enough. and anyway, el shaddai
  • 00:08:47.450 --> 00:08:49.986
  • Enough. and anyway, el shaddai became demon possessed. this
  • 00:08:50.052 --> 00:08:51.988
  • Became demon possessed. this horse went absolutely wild, and
  • 00:08:52.054 --> 00:08:54.123
  • Horse went absolutely wild, and i had sunk a railroad tie in the
  • 00:08:54.190 --> 00:08:56.225
  • I had sunk a railroad tie in the middle of this pasture and had
  • 00:08:56.292 --> 00:08:58.294
  • Middle of this pasture and had that rope tied to it, and when
  • 00:08:58.361 --> 00:09:00.630
  • That rope tied to it, and when el shaddai felt that rope around
  • 00:09:00.696 --> 00:09:03.065
  • El shaddai felt that rope around it, it took off at a dead run,
  • 00:09:03.132 --> 00:09:05.101
  • It, it took off at a dead run, just as fast as it could go,
  • 00:09:05.167 --> 00:09:06.669
  • Just as fast as it could go, boom, like this. and that rope
  • 00:09:06.736 --> 00:09:08.938
  • Boom, like this. and that rope caught and flipped that horse up
  • 00:09:09.005 --> 00:09:11.607
  • Caught and flipped that horse up on its back, and i mean, it fell
  • 00:09:11.674 --> 00:09:13.542
  • On its back, and i mean, it fell on the ground with its feet
  • 00:09:13.609 --> 00:09:14.944
  • On the ground with its feet right in the air. and, it got up
  • 00:09:15.011 --> 00:09:19.215
  • Right in the air. and, it got up and i mean it started pitching
  • 00:09:19.281 --> 00:09:21.684
  • And i mean it started pitching and bucking and it was going
  • 00:09:21.751 --> 00:09:23.819
  • And bucking and it was going wild. it was literally just
  • 00:09:23.886 --> 00:09:26.856
  • Wild. it was literally just panicked to have this rope
  • 00:09:26.922 --> 00:09:28.824
  • Panicked to have this rope around its neck. and so, it
  • 00:09:28.891 --> 00:09:30.960
  • Around its neck. and so, it scared me so bad, i got a knife,
  • 00:09:31.027 --> 00:09:32.795
  • Scared me so bad, i got a knife, and i started to go cut the rope
  • 00:09:32.862 --> 00:09:34.230
  • And i started to go cut the rope and just let it go, because i
  • 00:09:34.296 --> 00:09:35.564
  • And just let it go, because i thought this horse was going to
  • 00:09:35.631 --> 00:09:36.699
  • Thought this horse was going to kill itself. but it was running
  • 00:09:36.766 --> 00:09:38.501
  • Kill itself. but it was running around this railroad tie so fast
  • 00:09:38.567 --> 00:09:40.803
  • Around this railroad tie so fast that if i'd have gotten in
  • 00:09:40.870 --> 00:09:41.904
  • That if i'd have gotten in there, it would have trampled
  • 00:09:41.971 --> 00:09:42.938
  • There, it would have trampled me, i'd have gotten caught. and
  • 00:09:43.005 --> 00:09:44.707
  • Me, i'd have gotten caught. and so anyway, jamie and i just
  • 00:09:44.774 --> 00:09:46.108
  • So anyway, jamie and i just stood there and watched this
  • 00:09:46.175 --> 00:09:47.543
  • Stood there and watched this horse for about 20 minutes or
  • 00:09:47.610 --> 00:09:49.311
  • Horse for about 20 minutes or something, and it just ran and
  • 00:09:49.378 --> 00:09:52.014
  • Something, and it just ran and did things, and it finally wore
  • 00:09:52.081 --> 00:09:53.916
  • Did things, and it finally wore itself out. it pulled on that
  • 00:09:53.983 --> 00:09:56.318
  • Itself out. it pulled on that rope as far as it could, and
  • 00:09:56.385 --> 00:09:58.487
  • Rope as far as it could, and again, it was a slipknot type
  • 00:09:58.554 --> 00:10:00.156
  • Again, it was a slipknot type thing, and it kind of choked it,
  • 00:10:00.222 --> 00:10:01.390
  • Thing, and it kind of choked it, and it just fell on the ground
  • 00:10:01.457 --> 00:10:03.492
  • And it just fell on the ground and passed out. so i went up and
  • 00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:05.761
  • And passed out. so i went up and sat on the nak...neck of this
  • 00:10:05.828 --> 00:10:07.430
  • Sat on the nak...neck of this horse. i put a halter on it, a
  • 00:10:07.496 --> 00:10:09.398
  • Horse. i put a halter on it, a proper halter, and then i tied
  • 00:10:09.465 --> 00:10:11.133
  • Proper halter, and then i tied it in between these two railroad
  • 00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:12.702
  • It in between these two railroad ties, and when that horse got
  • 00:10:12.768 --> 00:10:14.870
  • Ties, and when that horse got up...that horse was broken. i
  • 00:10:14.937 --> 00:10:18.808
  • Up...that horse was broken. i could ride it. it...it was just,
  • 00:10:18.874 --> 00:10:21.477
  • Could ride it. it...it was just, it would do anything i want it
  • 00:10:21.544 --> 00:10:23.245
  • It would do anything i want it to. now, i admit that that's not
  • 00:10:23.312 --> 00:10:25.581
  • To. now, i admit that that's not the way to do it, but here's my
  • 00:10:25.648 --> 00:10:26.682
  • The way to do it, but here's my reason for telling this story,
  • 00:10:26.749 --> 00:10:28.784
  • Reason for telling this story, is that that horse, it was a
  • 00:10:28.851 --> 00:10:31.320
  • Is that that horse, it was a beautiful looking arabian horse,
  • 00:10:31.387 --> 00:10:33.723
  • Beautiful looking arabian horse, and you would look at it in the
  • 00:10:33.789 --> 00:10:35.257
  • And you would look at it in the pasture and it had its head up,
  • 00:10:35.324 --> 00:10:37.026
  • Pasture and it had its head up, and i just think arabians are
  • 00:10:37.093 --> 00:10:38.360
  • And i just think arabians are beautiful horses. but it would
  • 00:10:38.427 --> 00:10:40.329
  • Beautiful horses. but it would see my green pickup coming from,
  • 00:10:40.396 --> 00:10:42.298
  • See my green pickup coming from, i mean, a half a mile away, and
  • 00:10:42.364 --> 00:10:45.601
  • I mean, a half a mile away, and that horse would put its head
  • 00:10:45.668 --> 00:10:47.036
  • That horse would put its head down and its ears back, and it'd
  • 00:10:47.103 --> 00:10:48.204
  • Down and its ears back, and it'd just go to trembling like this.
  • 00:10:48.270 --> 00:10:50.272
  • Just go to trembling like this. and when you rode this horse, it
  • 00:10:50.339 --> 00:10:51.807
  • And when you rode this horse, it would shake the whole time. it
  • 00:10:51.874 --> 00:10:53.409
  • Would shake the whole time. it was terrified of me. and i'm
  • 00:10:53.476 --> 00:10:56.846
  • Was terrified of me. and i'm sure if this horse could've
  • 00:10:56.912 --> 00:10:58.214
  • Sure if this horse could've thought like people, it would've
  • 00:10:58.280 --> 00:10:59.782
  • Thought like people, it would've thought, you nearly killed me.
  • 00:10:59.849 --> 00:11:01.717
  • Thought, you nearly killed me. look what you did to me. but you
  • 00:11:01.784 --> 00:11:04.019
  • Look what you did to me. but you know the truth was, i actually
  • 00:11:04.086 --> 00:11:05.921
  • Know the truth was, i actually saved that horse's life. they
  • 00:11:05.988 --> 00:11:07.757
  • Saved that horse's life. they were going to kill that horse.
  • 00:11:07.823 --> 00:11:09.892
  • Were going to kill that horse. and i saved its life. and it
  • 00:11:09.959 --> 00:11:11.594
  • And i saved its life. and it really wasn't what i did to it
  • 00:11:11.660 --> 00:11:14.296
  • Really wasn't what i did to it that caused all this problem. it
  • 00:11:14.363 --> 00:11:15.798
  • That caused all this problem. it was the reaction of what i did,
  • 00:11:15.865 --> 00:11:19.101
  • Was the reaction of what i did, it was that horse's reaction.
  • 00:11:19.168 --> 00:11:21.203
  • It was that horse's reaction. and anyway, the reason i bring
  • 00:11:21.270 --> 00:11:22.471
  • And anyway, the reason i bring all of this up is to say that
  • 00:11:22.538 --> 00:11:23.939
  • All of this up is to say that under the old covenant, you see
  • 00:11:24.006 --> 00:11:26.308
  • Under the old covenant, you see a wrath and a punishment of god.
  • 00:11:26.375 --> 00:11:29.145
  • A wrath and a punishment of god. and some people look at that and
  • 00:11:29.211 --> 00:11:30.880
  • And some people look at that and just like this horse could've
  • 00:11:30.946 --> 00:11:32.281
  • Just like this horse could've thought, you are a terrible
  • 00:11:32.348 --> 00:11:33.649
  • Thought, you are a terrible person because it didn't
  • 00:11:33.716 --> 00:11:35.284
  • Person because it didn't understand why i was doing it. i
  • 00:11:35.351 --> 00:11:36.552
  • Understand why i was doing it. i was actually saving that horse's
  • 00:11:36.619 --> 00:11:38.187
  • Was actually saving that horse's life. i really was. they
  • 00:11:38.254 --> 00:11:40.456
  • Life. i really was. they would've killed that horse if i
  • 00:11:40.523 --> 00:11:41.824
  • Would've killed that horse if i hadn't have done this. and that
  • 00:11:41.891 --> 00:11:44.293
  • Hadn't have done this. and that horse didn't understand my
  • 00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:45.694
  • Horse didn't understand my motive. well likewise, in the
  • 00:11:45.761 --> 00:11:47.696
  • Motive. well likewise, in the old covenant god revealed a
  • 00:11:47.763 --> 00:11:50.399
  • Old covenant god revealed a wrath and a punishment upon
  • 00:11:50.466 --> 00:11:53.102
  • Wrath and a punishment upon sin that doesn't seem to
  • 00:11:53.169 --> 00:11:55.538
  • Sin that doesn't seem to be consistent with
  • 00:11:55.604 --> 00:11:56.872
  • Be consistent with the new testament.
  • 00:11:56.939 --> 00:11:57.406
  • And as we go through
  • 00:11:57.873 --> 00:11:58.974
  • This series, i'm going to give
  • 00:11:58.974 --> 00:12:00.176
  • You a number of examples of that
  • 00:12:00.176 --> 00:12:01.977
  • And show you that. but if you
  • 00:12:01.977 --> 00:12:03.212
  • Don't understand how to put all
  • 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:05.881
  • Don't understand how to put all of this together, you can come
  • 00:12:05.948 --> 00:12:07.516
  • Of this together, you can come up with one of two options. you
  • 00:12:07.583 --> 00:12:08.918
  • Up with one of two options. you can either think, well god
  • 00:12:08.984 --> 00:12:10.586
  • Can either think, well god changed. he's not the same god
  • 00:12:10.653 --> 00:12:12.721
  • Changed. he's not the same god as in the old testament because
  • 00:12:12.788 --> 00:12:14.256
  • As in the old testament because in the new testament, he's
  • 00:12:14.323 --> 00:12:15.357
  • In the new testament, he's showing mercy. he took a woman
  • 00:12:15.424 --> 00:12:17.393
  • Showing mercy. he took a woman in the very act of adultery and
  • 00:12:17.459 --> 00:12:18.994
  • In the very act of adultery and forgave her, whereas under the
  • 00:12:19.061 --> 00:12:20.963
  • Forgave her, whereas under the old covenant, she had to be put
  • 00:12:21.030 --> 00:12:22.565
  • Old covenant, she had to be put to death. and he rebuked his
  • 00:12:22.631 --> 00:12:24.967
  • To death. and he rebuked his disciples for trying to do what
  • 00:12:25.034 --> 00:12:26.869
  • Disciples for trying to do what elijah did. and i mean, they
  • 00:12:26.936 --> 00:12:29.004
  • Elijah did. and i mean, they were emulating elijah perfectly
  • 00:12:29.071 --> 00:12:31.240
  • And yet he rebuked them and
  • 00:12:31.307 --> 00:12:32.541
  • And yet he rebuked them and said, you know not what manner
  • 00:12:32.608 --> 00:12:33.909
  • Said, you know not what manner of spirit you are. so some
  • 00:12:33.976 --> 00:12:35.544
  • People look at that and think,
  • 00:12:35.611 --> 00:12:36.512
  • People look at that and think, well, god must have changed. is
  • 00:12:36.579 --> 00:12:38.614
  • Well, god must have changed. is he the god of the old testament
  • 00:12:38.681 --> 00:12:40.182
  • He the god of the old testament or the god of the new testament?
  • 00:12:40.249 --> 00:12:41.550
  • Or you could come to the
  • 00:12:43.319 --> 00:12:44.320
  • Or you could come to the conclusion that god's
  • 00:12:44.386 --> 00:12:45.454
  • Conclusion that god's schizophrenic and that you never
  • 00:12:45.521 --> 00:12:47.556
  • Schizophrenic and that you never know what god's going to do.
  • 00:12:47.623 --> 00:12:48.691
  • And yet malachi chapter 3,
  • 00:12:48.757 --> 00:12:50.125
  • And yet malachi chapter 3, verse 6, he says, i am the
  • 00:12:50.192 --> 00:12:52.228
  • Verse 6, he says, i am the lord, i change not.
  • 00:12:52.294 --> 00:12:54.230
  • God cannot lie. the
  • 00:12:54.630 --> 00:12:56.098
  • God cannot lie. the things that he said, god has
  • 00:12:56.165 --> 00:12:57.333
  • Things that he said, god has never changed. so how do you
  • 00:12:57.399 --> 00:12:59.969
  • Never changed. so how do you understand, how do you put
  • 00:13:00.035 --> 00:13:01.570
  • Understand, how do you put together the harshness, the
  • 00:13:01.637 --> 00:13:04.173
  • Together the harshness, the wrath? i mean, in the old
  • 00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:05.474
  • Wrath? i mean, in the old covenant, an angel went out and
  • 00:13:05.541 --> 00:13:07.543
  • Covenant, an angel went out and killed 186,000 syrians in one
  • 00:13:07.610 --> 00:13:11.780
  • Killed 186,000 syrians in one night. and of course, the death
  • 00:13:11.847 --> 00:13:13.682
  • Night. and of course, the death angel went through the land of
  • 00:13:13.749 --> 00:13:15.651
  • Angel went through the land of egypt and killed all of the
  • 00:13:15.718 --> 00:13:17.319
  • Egypt and killed all of the egyptians who didn't have blood
  • 00:13:17.386 --> 00:13:19.388
  • Egyptians who didn't have blood on the lintel and the doorpost
  • 00:13:19.455 --> 00:13:21.690
  • On the lintel and the doorpost of their house and all of the
  • 00:13:21.757 --> 00:13:23.125
  • Of their house and all of the plagues and all of these things.
  • 00:13:23.192 --> 00:13:24.994
  • Plagues and all of these things. and he smote miriam with
  • 00:13:25.060 --> 00:13:26.662
  • And he smote miriam with leprosy, and he smote
  • 00:13:26.729 --> 00:13:28.764
  • Leprosy, and he smote uza...uriah...or excuse me,
  • 00:13:28.831 --> 00:13:30.699
  • Uza...uriah...or excuse me, uzziah the king with leprosy.
  • 00:13:30.766 --> 00:13:33.903
  • Uzziah the king with leprosy. and you can see a wrath and a
  • 00:13:33.969 --> 00:13:35.638
  • And you can see a wrath and a punishment of god under the old
  • 00:13:35.704 --> 00:13:38.240
  • Punishment of god under the old covenant that is not compatible
  • 00:13:38.307 --> 00:13:41.577
  • Covenant that is not compatible with the new covenant. now that
  • 00:13:41.644 --> 00:13:43.779
  • With the new covenant. now that statement right there is going
  • 00:13:43.846 --> 00:13:44.780
  • Statement right there is going to cause some people to think,
  • 00:13:44.847 --> 00:13:45.848
  • To cause some people to think, so you're saying that the bible
  • 00:13:45.915 --> 00:13:47.049
  • So you're saying that the bible contradicts itself? no. not at
  • 00:13:47.116 --> 00:13:49.351
  • Contradicts itself? no. not at all. but there was a reason that
  • 00:13:49.418 --> 00:13:51.820
  • All. but there was a reason that god was harsh and judged sin the
  • 00:13:51.887 --> 00:13:54.556
  • God was harsh and judged sin the way that he did under the old
  • 00:13:54.623 --> 00:13:55.958
  • Way that he did under the old covenant. and i'm going to be
  • 00:13:56.025 --> 00:13:57.393
  • Covenant. and i'm going to be explaining that as we go through
  • 00:13:57.459 --> 00:13:58.827
  • Explaining that as we go through and if you understand this, then
  • 00:13:58.894 --> 00:14:00.229
  • And if you understand this, then you'll be able to understand why
  • 00:14:00.296 --> 00:14:02.765
  • You'll be able to understand why god dealt with people that way
  • 00:14:02.831 --> 00:14:04.767
  • God dealt with people that way and it'll be able to be...it'll
  • 00:14:04.833 --> 00:14:06.769
  • And it'll be able to be...it'll fit perfectly. the old testament
  • 00:14:06.835 --> 00:14:10.072
  • Fit perfectly. the old testament does not contradict the new
  • 00:14:10.139 --> 00:14:12.541
  • Does not contradict the new testament in the sense that it
  • 00:14:12.608 --> 00:14:15.277
  • Testament in the sense that it is...it's wrong. but it was
  • 00:14:15.344 --> 00:14:18.180
  • Is...it's wrong. but it was incomplete, and it pointed to
  • 00:14:18.247 --> 00:14:20.449
  • Incomplete, and it pointed to the new testament. when i get
  • 00:14:20.516 --> 00:14:22.051
  • The new testament. when i get into romans, chapter 3, i'll
  • 00:14:22.117 --> 00:14:23.419
  • Into romans, chapter 3, i'll show you that the old testament
  • 00:14:23.485 --> 00:14:25.087
  • Show you that the old testament law shut us up. that's
  • 00:14:25.154 --> 00:14:26.956
  • Law shut us up. that's galatians, chapter 3, but
  • 00:14:27.022 --> 00:14:28.290
  • Galatians, chapter 3, but romans, chapter 3, says it gave
  • 00:14:28.357 --> 00:14:30.459
  • Romans, chapter 3, says it gave us a knowledge of sin. it didn't
  • 00:14:30.526 --> 00:14:32.227
  • Us a knowledge of sin. it didn't bring us salvation, but it gave
  • 00:14:32.294 --> 00:14:33.963
  • Bring us salvation, but it gave us a knowledge of sin, and it
  • 00:14:34.029 --> 00:14:35.898
  • Us a knowledge of sin, and it showed us our need for
  • 00:14:35.965 --> 00:14:37.299
  • Showed us our need for salvation. and god dealt
  • 00:14:37.366 --> 00:14:39.902
  • Salvation. and god dealt severely with punishment under
  • 00:14:39.969 --> 00:14:43.105
  • Severely with punishment under the old covenant, and i mean
  • 00:14:43.172 --> 00:14:44.907
  • The old covenant, and i mean people were terrified of god.
  • 00:14:44.974 --> 00:14:47.576
  • People were terrified of god. under the new covenant in acts,
  • 00:14:47.643 --> 00:14:49.211
  • Under the new covenant in acts, chapter 13, i believe it's verse
  • 00:14:49.278 --> 00:14:51.013
  • Chapter 13, i believe it's verse 39, it says that we can now
  • 00:14:51.080 --> 00:14:53.415
  • 39, it says that we can now be...cleansed from all things,
  • 00:14:53.482 --> 00:14:55.951
  • Be...cleansed from all things, from which we could not be
  • 00:14:56.018 --> 00:14:57.753
  • From which we could not be cleansed under the law of moses.
  • 00:14:57.820 --> 00:15:00.823
  • Cleansed under the law of moses. that's a huge statement right
  • 00:15:00.889 --> 00:15:02.291
  • That's a huge statement right there. it's saying that things
  • 00:15:02.358 --> 00:15:04.259
  • There. it's saying that things that you could not serve god
  • 00:15:04.326 --> 00:15:06.862
  • That you could not serve god with these sins in your life
  • 00:15:06.929 --> 00:15:08.597
  • With these sins in your life under the old covenant, now
  • 00:15:08.664 --> 00:15:10.099
  • Under the old covenant, now under the new covenant, you can
  • 00:15:10.165 --> 00:15:11.266
  • Under the new covenant, you can be cleansed through the blood of
  • 00:15:11.333 --> 00:15:13.335
  • Be cleansed through the blood of jesus. did you know that most of
  • 00:15:13.402 --> 00:15:15.337
  • Jesus. did you know that most of the old testament rituals and
  • 00:15:15.404 --> 00:15:17.539
  • The old testament rituals and things like this have met their
  • 00:15:17.606 --> 00:15:19.608
  • Things like this have met their fulfillment in christ. and so
  • 00:15:19.675 --> 00:15:21.377
  • Fulfillment in christ. and so today, we aren't killing animals
  • 00:15:21.443 --> 00:15:23.946
  • Today, we aren't killing animals and offering blood sacrifices
  • 00:15:24.013 --> 00:15:25.748
  • And offering blood sacrifices because jesus paid for our sins.
  • 00:15:25.814 --> 00:15:28.417
  • Because jesus paid for our sins. today we aren't bound by some of
  • 00:15:28.484 --> 00:15:31.120
  • Today we aren't bound by some of the...the ordinances and the
  • 00:15:31.186 --> 00:15:34.757
  • The...the ordinances and the observance and the feasts that
  • 00:15:34.823 --> 00:15:36.692
  • Observance and the feasts that were under the old covenant. and
  • 00:15:36.759 --> 00:15:38.527
  • Were under the old covenant. and yet the average christian hasn't
  • 00:15:38.594 --> 00:15:40.396
  • Yet the average christian hasn't understood these things. and
  • 00:15:40.462 --> 00:15:41.697
  • Understood these things. and because of it, they see the old
  • 00:15:41.764 --> 00:15:44.867
  • Because of it, they see the old covenant, and if you've got a
  • 00:15:44.933 --> 00:15:46.235
  • Covenant, and if you've got a bible that if you'd look at your
  • 00:15:46.301 --> 00:15:47.903
  • Bible that if you'd look at your bible, there is a lot more in
  • 00:15:47.970 --> 00:15:51.106
  • Bible, there is a lot more in the old covenant. in my bible
  • 00:15:51.173 --> 00:15:52.608
  • The old covenant. in my bible right here, this over here is
  • 00:15:52.674 --> 00:15:54.810
  • Right here, this over here is all old covenant, this is all
  • 00:15:54.877 --> 00:15:56.578
  • All old covenant, this is all new covenant. there is a lot
  • 00:15:56.645 --> 00:15:58.280
  • New covenant. there is a lot more information under the old
  • 00:15:58.347 --> 00:16:00.749
  • More information under the old covenant than there is in the
  • 00:16:00.816 --> 00:16:02.084
  • Covenant than there is in the new covenant. and if people
  • 00:16:02.151 --> 00:16:04.219
  • New covenant. and if people don't understand the difference,
  • 00:16:04.286 --> 00:16:05.587
  • Don't understand the difference, if all they think that there is
  • 00:16:05.654 --> 00:16:07.089
  • If all they think that there is difference between the old
  • 00:16:07.156 --> 00:16:08.257
  • Difference between the old covenant law and the new
  • 00:16:08.323 --> 00:16:09.425
  • Covenant law and the new testament grace is one blank
  • 00:16:09.491 --> 00:16:11.527
  • Testament grace is one blank page in your bible, then you're
  • 00:16:11.593 --> 00:16:14.296
  • Page in your bible, then you're going to just run it all
  • 00:16:14.363 --> 00:16:15.297
  • Going to just run it all together and you're going to see
  • 00:16:15.364 --> 00:16:16.565
  • Together and you're going to see god smite people over here
  • 00:16:16.632 --> 00:16:19.068
  • God smite people over here and express his anger
  • 00:16:19.134 --> 00:16:20.602
  • And say that you're cursed
  • 00:16:20.669 --> 00:16:22.071
  • And say that you're cursed with the curse if you don't
  • 00:16:22.137 --> 00:16:23.672
  • With the curse if you don't tithe, and you are going
  • 00:16:23.739 --> 00:16:25.374
  • To get those things and
  • 00:16:25.441 --> 00:16:26.475
  • To get those things and you are going to paint a picture
  • 00:16:26.542 --> 00:16:27.843
  • You are going to paint a picture of god that just like that horse
  • 00:16:27.910 --> 00:16:31.180
  • Of god that just like that horse thought i must be this terrible
  • 00:16:31.246 --> 00:16:32.714
  • Thought i must be this terrible person and every time it saw me
  • 00:16:32.781 --> 00:16:34.183
  • Person and every time it saw me it just went to shaking and
  • 00:16:34.249 --> 00:16:35.517
  • It just went to shaking and quivering. and yet the truth is,
  • 00:16:35.584 --> 00:16:37.719
  • Quivering. and yet the truth is, i'm not a bad person. i...i did
  • 00:16:37.786 --> 00:16:40.155
  • I'm not a bad person. i...i did this stuff trying to help that
  • 00:16:40.222 --> 00:16:41.757
  • This stuff trying to help that horse. and did you know after
  • 00:16:41.824 --> 00:16:43.192
  • Horse. and did you know after all this thing happened with
  • 00:16:43.258 --> 00:16:44.259
  • All this thing happened with that horse, that story i was
  • 00:16:44.326 --> 00:16:45.461
  • That horse, that story i was telling you about, i'd go in and
  • 00:16:45.527 --> 00:16:47.196
  • Telling you about, i'd go in and i'd talk to this horse, i sang
  • 00:16:47.262 --> 00:16:49.131
  • I'd talk to this horse, i sang to this horse, i quoted
  • 00:16:49.198 --> 00:16:50.432
  • To this horse, i quoted scripture to this horse, i did
  • 00:16:50.499 --> 00:16:51.767
  • Scripture to this horse, i did everything i could to try and
  • 00:16:51.834 --> 00:16:53.235
  • Everything i could to try and convince that horse that i am
  • 00:16:53.302 --> 00:16:55.204
  • Convince that horse that i am not a mean person. there was a
  • 00:16:55.270 --> 00:16:57.272
  • Not a mean person. there was a reason i did what i did, and it
  • 00:16:57.339 --> 00:16:59.608
  • Reason i did what i did, and it was to save that horse's life.
  • 00:16:59.675 --> 00:17:01.710
  • Was to save that horse's life. but the wildness that was inside
  • 00:17:01.777 --> 00:17:03.912
  • But the wildness that was inside of that horse nearly killed it.
  • 00:17:03.979 --> 00:17:06.381
  • Of that horse nearly killed it. not what i did, but what was
  • 00:17:06.448 --> 00:17:08.484
  • Not what i did, but what was inside of that horse that made
  • 00:17:08.550 --> 00:17:10.219
  • Inside of that horse that made it rebel at what i did. and it's
  • 00:17:10.285 --> 00:17:13.055
  • It rebel at what i did. and it's the exact same thing with god.
  • 00:17:13.122 --> 00:17:15.124
  • The exact same thing with god. there was a reason that he gave
  • 00:17:15.190 --> 00:17:16.725
  • There was a reason that he gave the old testament law. the old
  • 00:17:16.792 --> 00:17:18.894
  • The old testament law. the old testament law does not bring us
  • 00:17:18.961 --> 00:17:20.829
  • Testament law does not bring us into relationship with god. the
  • 00:17:20.896 --> 00:17:22.798
  • Into relationship with god. the old testament law was not given
  • 00:17:22.865 --> 00:17:25.134
  • Old testament law was not given to make us feel and understand
  • 00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:28.170
  • To make us feel and understand the love of god and to have a
  • 00:17:28.237 --> 00:17:29.771
  • The love of god and to have a relationship with god. now those
  • 00:17:29.838 --> 00:17:32.407
  • Relationship with god. now those are radical statements, and i
  • 00:17:32.474 --> 00:17:33.675
  • Are radical statements, and i know some people are choking on
  • 00:17:33.742 --> 00:17:35.277
  • Know some people are choking on that and thinking, what are you
  • 00:17:35.344 --> 00:17:36.345
  • That and thinking, what are you saying? i'm saying that the old
  • 00:17:36.411 --> 00:17:38.113
  • Saying? i'm saying that the old testament law was given to show
  • 00:17:38.180 --> 00:17:40.015
  • Testament law was given to show you what god's standard was so
  • 00:17:40.082 --> 00:17:42.484
  • You what god's standard was so that it could remove any
  • 00:17:42.551 --> 00:17:43.685
  • That it could remove any deception that you had about
  • 00:17:43.752 --> 00:17:45.521
  • Deception that you had about ever earning a right
  • 00:17:45.587 --> 00:17:47.156
  • Ever earning a right relationship with god. the old
  • 00:17:47.222 --> 00:17:49.324
  • Relationship with god. the old testament law made sin come
  • 00:17:49.391 --> 00:17:51.260
  • Testament law made sin come alive on the inside of you. i'm
  • 00:17:51.326 --> 00:17:53.061
  • Alive on the inside of you. i'm going to quote that and...and
  • 00:17:53.128 --> 00:17:54.329
  • Going to quote that and...and share that with you from romans,
  • 00:17:54.396 --> 00:17:55.564
  • Share that with you from romans, chapter 7. 1 corinthians 15:56,
  • 00:17:55.631 --> 00:17:58.300
  • Chapter 7. 1 corinthians 15:56, the law strengthened sin. it
  • 00:17:58.367 --> 00:18:01.603
  • The law strengthened sin. it didn't strengthen you in your
  • 00:18:01.670 --> 00:18:03.172
  • Didn't strengthen you in your battle against sin. there was a
  • 00:18:03.238 --> 00:18:05.207
  • Battle against sin. there was a reason for all of these things.
  • 00:18:05.274 --> 00:18:06.808
  • Reason for all of these things. god had to show us how deadly
  • 00:18:06.875 --> 00:18:09.711
  • God had to show us how deadly sin was because people were
  • 00:18:09.778 --> 00:18:12.014
  • Sin was because people were making this mistake of comparing
  • 00:18:12.080 --> 00:18:13.882
  • Making this mistake of comparing themself with other people. and
  • 00:18:13.949 --> 00:18:15.617
  • Themself with other people. and they were thinking, i'm not
  • 00:18:15.684 --> 00:18:16.618
  • They were thinking, i'm not really such a bad person. i
  • 00:18:16.685 --> 00:18:17.986
  • Really such a bad person. i don't dip or cuss or chew or go
  • 00:18:18.053 --> 00:18:19.855
  • Don't dip or cuss or chew or go with those that do. i'm not like
  • 00:18:19.922 --> 00:18:21.390
  • With those that do. i'm not like this publican over here. i fast
  • 00:18:21.456 --> 00:18:23.392
  • This publican over here. i fast twice in the week. see, that's
  • 00:18:23.458 --> 00:18:24.560
  • Twice in the week. see, that's what the pharisee said. and so
  • 00:18:24.626 --> 00:18:26.428
  • What the pharisee said. and so people were comparing themself
  • 00:18:26.495 --> 00:18:27.963
  • People were comparing themself among themself, which the bible
  • 00:18:28.030 --> 00:18:29.531
  • Among themself, which the bible says is not wise. and because of
  • 00:18:29.598 --> 00:18:32.701
  • Says is not wise. and because of it, they were thinking, well,
  • 00:18:32.768 --> 00:18:33.669
  • It, they were thinking, well, i'm not perfect, but i'm good
  • 00:18:33.735 --> 00:18:35.237
  • I'm not perfect, but i'm good enough. they didn't understand
  • 00:18:35.304 --> 00:18:37.439
  • Enough. they didn't understand that god doesn't grade on a
  • 00:18:37.506 --> 00:18:38.607
  • That god doesn't grade on a curve. it's not like if you do
  • 00:18:38.674 --> 00:18:41.076
  • Curve. it's not like if you do better than my...i do or better
  • 00:18:41.143 --> 00:18:42.911
  • Better than my...i do or better than somebody else, you're going
  • 00:18:42.978 --> 00:18:43.979
  • Than somebody else, you're going to be accepted. it's not like
  • 00:18:44.046 --> 00:18:45.280
  • To be accepted. it's not like god's got a quota and he's got
  • 00:18:45.347 --> 00:18:48.116
  • God's got a quota and he's got to accept somebody. but...and
  • 00:18:48.183 --> 00:18:50.285
  • To accept somebody. but...and nobody makes 100, nobody is
  • 00:18:50.352 --> 00:18:52.187
  • Nobody makes 100, nobody is perfect, and so god will just
  • 00:18:52.254 --> 00:18:53.422
  • Perfect, and so god will just grade on a curve. and if you
  • 00:18:53.488 --> 00:18:54.523
  • Grade on a curve. and if you make an 80, but if that's in the
  • 00:18:54.590 --> 00:18:56.124
  • Make an 80, but if that's in the top 90%...the top 10% of the
  • 00:18:56.191 --> 00:19:00.596
  • Top 90%...the top 10% of the people, well then you get in.
  • 00:19:00.662 --> 00:19:02.197
  • No, it says in james, chapter 2,
  • 00:19:02.264 --> 00:19:03.966
  • No, it says in james, chapter 2, verse 16, if you keep the whole
  • 00:19:04.032 --> 00:19:05.601
  • Verse 16, if you keep the whole law, and yet offend in one
  • 00:19:05.667 --> 00:19:07.803
  • Law, and yet offend in one point, you become guilty of all.
  • 00:19:07.869 --> 00:19:10.539
  • And so people didn't recognize
  • 00:19:11.473 --> 00:19:13.175
  • And so people didn't recognize this. they were comparing
  • 00:19:13.242 --> 00:19:14.209
  • This. they were comparing themself and thinking, i'm
  • 00:19:14.276 --> 00:19:15.244
  • Themself and thinking, i'm better than this person, and so
  • 00:19:15.310 --> 00:19:17.412
  • Better than this person, and so i believe god's going to accept
  • 00:19:17.479 --> 00:19:18.914
  • I believe god's going to accept me, and they weren't really
  • 00:19:18.981 --> 00:19:20.582
  • Me, and they weren't really repenting. they were persisting
  • 00:19:20.649 --> 00:19:23.118
  • Repenting. they were persisting and thinking, i'm a good person,
  • 00:19:23.185 --> 00:19:25.020
  • And thinking, i'm a good person, and they thought they were good
  • 00:19:25.087 --> 00:19:26.154
  • And they thought they were good enough. and so god had to remove
  • 00:19:26.221 --> 00:19:28.390
  • Enough. and so god had to remove the deception. so how did he do
  • 00:19:28.457 --> 00:19:29.891
  • The deception. so how did he do it? he gave the law. and the law
  • 00:19:29.958 --> 00:19:32.160
  • It? he gave the law. and the law made sin come alive. it
  • 00:19:32.227 --> 00:19:34.196
  • Made sin come alive. it strengthened sin. it defeated
  • 00:19:34.263 --> 00:19:36.665
  • Strengthened sin. it defeated us. it slew us. all of those
  • 00:19:36.732 --> 00:19:38.734
  • Us. it slew us. all of those things that i'm saying are
  • 00:19:38.800 --> 00:19:39.768
  • Things that i'm saying are scriptures. it was a
  • 00:19:39.835 --> 00:19:41.069
  • Scriptures. it was a ministration of death and a
  • 00:19:41.136 --> 00:19:42.738
  • Ministration of death and a ministration of condemnation out
  • 00:19:42.804 --> 00:19:44.606
  • Ministration of condemnation out of 2 corinthians, chapter 3. and
  • 00:19:44.673 --> 00:19:46.642
  • Of 2 corinthians, chapter 3. and on and on these things could go.
  • 00:19:46.708 --> 00:19:48.010
  • On and on these things could go. i'm going to go into detail
  • 00:19:48.076 --> 00:19:49.711
  • I'm going to go into detail explaining all of this. and the
  • 00:19:49.778 --> 00:19:51.647
  • Explaining all of this. and the lord gave the law not to set us
  • 00:19:51.713 --> 00:19:54.049
  • Lord gave the law not to set us free, but to bind us and to show
  • 00:19:54.116 --> 00:19:56.551
  • Free, but to bind us and to show us and to shut us up and
  • 00:19:56.618 --> 00:19:58.654
  • Us and to shut us up and to...and let us say that, god,
  • 00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:00.289
  • To...and let us say that, god, if this is what you demand, if
  • 00:20:00.355 --> 00:20:01.790
  • If this is what you demand, if this is your standard of
  • 00:20:01.857 --> 00:20:03.058
  • This is your standard of holiness, lord, have mercy on me
  • 00:20:03.125 --> 00:20:05.927
  • Holiness, lord, have mercy on me a sinner. that was the purpose
  • 00:20:05.994 --> 00:20:07.663
  • A sinner. that was the purpose of the law, was to drive you to
  • 00:20:07.729 --> 00:20:09.164
  • Of the law, was to drive you to the end of yourself so that you
  • 00:20:09.231 --> 00:20:10.832
  • The end of yourself so that you would quit trying to earn
  • 00:20:10.899 --> 00:20:12.868
  • Would quit trying to earn relationship with god. and when
  • 00:20:12.934 --> 00:20:14.803
  • Relationship with god. and when god gave all of his standard of
  • 00:20:14.870 --> 00:20:16.805
  • God gave all of his standard of perfection, it wasn't given so
  • 00:20:16.872 --> 00:20:18.874
  • Perfection, it wasn't given so you could keep it, you can't
  • 00:20:18.940 --> 00:20:20.475
  • You could keep it, you can't keep all of the law. it was
  • 00:20:20.542 --> 00:20:21.810
  • Keep all of the law. it was given to show you how incapable
  • 00:20:21.877 --> 00:20:24.279
  • Given to show you how incapable of keeping the law you were so
  • 00:20:24.346 --> 00:20:25.881
  • Of keeping the law you were so that you would just turn from
  • 00:20:25.947 --> 00:20:27.282
  • That you would just turn from self-righteousness and say, oh
  • 00:20:27.349 --> 00:20:29.318
  • Self-righteousness and say, oh god, have mercy on me. and
  • 00:20:29.384 --> 00:20:31.953
  • God, have mercy on me. and that's exactly the purpose of
  • 00:20:32.020 --> 00:20:33.588
  • That's exactly the purpose of the law. religion has turned it
  • 00:20:33.655 --> 00:20:35.457
  • The law. religion has turned it around and somehow or another
  • 00:20:35.524 --> 00:20:36.892
  • Around and somehow or another convinced people that the reason
  • 00:20:36.958 --> 00:20:38.894
  • Convinced people that the reason god gave all of these commands
  • 00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:40.662
  • God gave all of these commands and everything is to show you
  • 00:20:40.729 --> 00:20:42.497
  • And everything is to show you all of the things that you must
  • 00:20:42.564 --> 00:20:44.066
  • All of the things that you must do to be right with god. no, it
  • 00:20:44.132 --> 00:20:46.668
  • Do to be right with god. no, it was given to show you how
  • 00:20:46.735 --> 00:20:48.136
  • Was given to show you how incapable of doing everything.
  • 00:20:48.203 --> 00:20:50.472
  • Incapable of doing everything. and for those of you who thought
  • 00:20:50.539 --> 00:20:51.740
  • And for those of you who thought you were doing good, he just
  • 00:20:51.807 --> 00:20:53.175
  • You were doing good, he just increased the standard so high
  • 00:20:53.241 --> 00:20:56.278
  • Increased the standard so high that nobody could ever reach it.
  • 00:20:56.345 --> 00:20:58.513
  • That nobody could ever reach it. and so if you understand these
  • 00:20:58.580 --> 00:21:00.048
  • And so if you understand these things, and i'm going to go into
  • 00:21:00.115 --> 00:21:01.016
  • Things, and i'm going to go into a lot more detail, this is kind
  • 00:21:01.083 --> 00:21:02.451
  • A lot more detail, this is kind of just an overview of some of
  • 00:21:02.517 --> 00:21:04.286

  • They've never understood really how bad their situation was,
  • 00:21:55.170 --> 00:21:56.972
  • How bad their situation was, therefore, they don't really
  • 00:21:57.038 --> 00:21:58.173
