  • Brand new series. actually, this
  • 00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:38.828
  • Is an old, old teaching, but i
  • 00:00:38.828 --> 00:00:40.763
  • Hadn't taught this in a long
  • 00:00:40.763 --> 00:00:42.132
  • Time, so i guess it's not brand
  • 00:00:42.132 --> 00:00:43.766
  • New but it's new to most
  • 00:00:43.766 --> 00:00:45.368
  • People watching this. and
  • 00:00:45.368 --> 00:00:47.070
  • It's entitled the true nature
  • 00:00:47.070 --> 00:00:48.505
  • Of god. and yesterday i
  • 00:00:48.505 --> 00:00:50.573
  • Gave a brief introduction
  • 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:52.342
  • Gave a brief introduction to this and tried to explain
  • 00:00:52.408 --> 00:00:54.644
  • To this and tried to explain why this is so important,
  • 00:00:54.711 --> 00:00:56.379
  • Why this is so important, but if you don't understand
  • 00:00:56.446 --> 00:00:58.515
  • But if you don't understand the nature of a person
  • 00:00:58.581 --> 00:01:00.750
  • The nature of a person that you're trying to have
  • 00:01:00.817 --> 00:01:01.751
  • That you're trying to have a relationship with, you're
  • 00:01:01.818 --> 00:01:03.853
  • A relationship with, you're going to have nothing but
  • 00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:04.654
  • Going to have nothing but problems. you will misread
  • 00:01:04.721 --> 00:01:06.623
  • Problems. you will misread things. did you know once you
  • 00:01:06.689 --> 00:01:07.891
  • Things. did you know once you get to really know a person and
  • 00:01:07.957 --> 00:01:10.059
  • Get to really know a person and you know that they love you and
  • 00:01:10.126 --> 00:01:11.928
  • You know that they love you and that they are never going to
  • 00:01:11.995 --> 00:01:12.862
  • That they are never going to turn away from you, you can take
  • 00:01:12.929 --> 00:01:16.132
  • Turn away from you, you can take hard things that they may say to
  • 00:01:16.199 --> 00:01:17.867
  • Hard things that they may say to you, but you know that they're
  • 00:01:17.934 --> 00:01:18.902
  • You, but you know that they're doing it in love. but if you
  • 00:01:18.968 --> 00:01:20.770
  • Doing it in love. but if you have a person that you don't
  • 00:01:20.837 --> 00:01:21.971
  • Have a person that you don't really know anything about, you
  • 00:01:22.038 --> 00:01:23.173
  • Really know anything about, you don't know their motivation, you
  • 00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:24.541
  • Don't know their motivation, you don't know exactly why they're
  • 00:01:24.607 --> 00:01:25.742
  • Don't know exactly why they're doing things. you know, i think
  • 00:01:25.808 --> 00:01:27.610
  • Doing things. you know, i think that every person watching this
  • 00:01:27.677 --> 00:01:29.145
  • That every person watching this could relate to that you've had
  • 00:01:29.212 --> 00:01:31.781
  • Could relate to that you've had a relationship with somebody and
  • 00:01:31.848 --> 00:01:33.383
  • A relationship with somebody and then later you find out that
  • 00:01:33.449 --> 00:01:34.717
  • Then later you find out that this person had done something
  • 00:01:34.784 --> 00:01:36.252
  • This person had done something for you, maybe anonymous. maybe
  • 00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:38.388
  • For you, maybe anonymous. maybe they had blessed you, things
  • 00:01:38.454 --> 00:01:40.523
  • They had blessed you, things that you didn't realize. and
  • 00:01:40.590 --> 00:01:42.792
  • That you didn't realize. and as you saw what they had
  • 00:01:42.859 --> 00:01:44.928
  • As you saw what they had done, all of a sudden your
  • 00:01:44.994 --> 00:01:46.529
  • Done, all of a sudden your love, your appreciation
  • 00:01:46.596 --> 00:01:47.931
  • Love, your appreciation of them just increased
  • 00:01:47.997 --> 00:01:49.899
  • Of them just increased dramatically. this is exactly
  • 00:01:49.966 --> 00:01:51.701
  • What philippians 1:9, says
  • 00:01:51.768 --> 00:01:53.403
  • What philippians 1:9, says that he's praying that your
  • 00:01:53.469 --> 00:01:54.504
  • That he's praying that your love would abound more and
  • 00:01:54.571 --> 00:01:56.506
  • Love would abound more and more in knowledge and in all
  • 00:01:56.573 --> 00:01:59.409
  • More in knowledge and in all judgment. if you don't really
  • 00:01:59.475 --> 00:02:01.511
  • Know who god is, and if you
  • 00:02:01.578 --> 00:02:04.147
  • Know who god is, and if you don't understand everything he's
  • 00:02:04.214 --> 00:02:05.982
  • Don't understand everything he's done for you, then you aren't
  • 00:02:06.049 --> 00:02:07.750
  • Done for you, then you aren't going to really appreciate him
  • 00:02:07.817 --> 00:02:09.352
  • Going to really appreciate him the way that you sood... should.
  • 00:02:09.419 --> 00:02:11.154
  • The way that you sood... should. and also i bet everybody can
  • 00:02:11.221 --> 00:02:12.622
  • And also i bet everybody can relate to this, that you've had
  • 00:02:12.689 --> 00:02:14.090
  • Relate to this, that you've had somebody who you thought was
  • 00:02:14.157 --> 00:02:16.159
  • Somebody who you thought was treating you real well, and then
  • 00:02:16.226 --> 00:02:17.961
  • Treating you real well, and then you find out that behind your
  • 00:02:18.027 --> 00:02:19.429
  • You find out that behind your back they've been saying things,
  • 00:02:19.495 --> 00:02:20.964
  • Back they've been saying things, or maybe they were just lying to
  • 00:02:21.030 --> 00:02:23.433
  • Or maybe they were just lying to you, flattering you so that they
  • 00:02:23.499 --> 00:02:25.235
  • You, flattering you so that they could set you up or something.
  • 00:02:25.301 --> 00:02:27.036
  • Could set you up or something. and once you see that a person
  • 00:02:27.103 --> 00:02:29.105
  • And once you see that a person has done things to hurt you
  • 00:02:29.172 --> 00:02:31.040
  • Has done things to hurt you and... and malicious and things
  • 00:02:31.107 --> 00:02:32.842
  • And... and malicious and things like that, that affects the way
  • 00:02:32.909 --> 00:02:35.845
  • Like that, that affects the way that you relate to them. so, my
  • 00:02:35.912 --> 00:02:38.147
  • That you relate to them. so, my point in saying all of that is
  • 00:02:38.214 --> 00:02:39.983
  • Point in saying all of that is that most people don't truly
  • 00:02:40.049 --> 00:02:42.485
  • That most people don't truly understand the nature of god.
  • 00:02:42.552 --> 00:02:44.954
  • Understand the nature of god. and because of this, satan is
  • 00:02:45.021 --> 00:02:46.589
  • And because of this, satan is able to come and say, oh yeah,
  • 00:02:46.656 --> 00:02:47.924
  • Able to come and say, oh yeah, god heals today and maybe
  • 00:02:47.991 --> 00:02:49.659
  • God heals today and maybe andrew's talking about he's seen
  • 00:02:49.726 --> 00:02:51.327
  • Andrew's talking about he's seen miracles and things work for
  • 00:02:51.394 --> 00:02:53.396
  • Miracles and things work for him, but it'll never work for
  • 00:02:53.463 --> 00:02:54.964
  • Him, but it'll never work for you. if you've ever thought
  • 00:02:55.031 --> 00:02:56.766
  • You. if you've ever thought that, if you've ever thought
  • 00:02:56.833 --> 00:02:58.167
  • That, if you've ever thought that god has special people and
  • 00:02:58.234 --> 00:03:00.336
  • That god has special people and that he does some things for
  • 00:03:00.403 --> 00:03:01.571
  • That he does some things for some people and not for others
  • 00:03:01.638 --> 00:03:03.606
  • Some people and not for others and that god has favorites,
  • 00:03:03.673 --> 00:03:05.141
  • And that god has favorites, etc., and stuff, you don't
  • 00:03:05.208 --> 00:03:07.143
  • Etc., and stuff, you don't understand the true nature
  • 00:03:07.210 --> 00:03:08.311
  • Understand the true nature and character of god. you
  • 00:03:08.378 --> 00:03:10.380
  • And character of god. you don't understand that.
  • 00:03:10.446 --> 00:03:11.514
  • God is no respecter of
  • 00:03:11.948 --> 00:03:13.283
  • God is no respecter of persons is what the scripture
  • 00:03:13.349 --> 00:03:14.651
  • Persons is what the scripture says in romans, chapter 2,
  • 00:03:14.717 --> 00:03:16.486
  • Says in romans, chapter 2, verse 11. he is no respecter
  • 00:03:16.552 --> 00:03:18.821
  • Verse 11. he is no respecter of persons. everything
  • 00:03:18.888 --> 00:03:20.223
  • That he has done for me, he's
  • 00:03:20.290 --> 00:03:21.791
  • That he has done for me, he's also done for you. now you
  • 00:03:21.858 --> 00:03:23.693
  • Also done for you. now you have to learn and receive it
  • 00:03:23.760 --> 00:03:25.695
  • Have to learn and receive it by faith and faith is based on
  • 00:03:25.762 --> 00:03:27.864
  • By faith and faith is based on knowledge. that's what it says
  • 00:03:27.930 --> 00:03:29.699
  • In 2 peter, chapter 1, it says,
  • 00:03:29.766 --> 00:03:32.468
  • In 2 peter, chapter 1, it says, all things that pertain
  • 00:03:32.535 --> 00:03:34.037
  • All things that pertain unto life and godliness,
  • 00:03:34.103 --> 00:03:35.838
  • Unto life and godliness, which certainly faith
  • 00:03:35.905 --> 00:03:37.073
  • Is one of those things that
  • 00:03:37.140 --> 00:03:38.074
  • Is one of those things that pertains to life and godliness,
  • 00:03:38.141 --> 00:03:39.709
  • It comes through the knowledge
  • 00:03:39.776 --> 00:03:42.078
  • It comes through the knowledge of him that has called us to
  • 00:03:42.145 --> 00:03:43.613
  • Of him that has called us to glory and virtue. and then the
  • 00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:44.814
  • Glory and virtue. and then the next verse says, whereby are
  • 00:03:44.881 --> 00:03:46.316
  • Next verse says, whereby are given unto us exceeding great
  • 00:03:46.382 --> 00:03:48.718
  • Given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by
  • 00:03:48.785 --> 00:03:50.453
  • And precious promises: that by these we might become partakers
  • 00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:52.855
  • These we might become partakers of the divine nature, having
  • 00:03:52.922 --> 00:03:54.290
  • Of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that's
  • 00:03:54.357 --> 00:03:55.558
  • Escaped the corruption that's in the world through lust. so,
  • 00:03:55.625 --> 00:03:57.527
  • God's knowledge is what gave us
  • 00:03:57.593 --> 00:04:00.063
  • God's knowledge is what gave us this word. this word reveals his
  • 00:04:00.129 --> 00:04:02.131
  • This word. this word reveals his knowledge. and if you don't have
  • 00:04:02.198 --> 00:04:03.966
  • Knowledge. and if you don't have the proper knowledge, well
  • 00:04:04.033 --> 00:04:05.935
  • The proper knowledge, well then it says all things that
  • 00:04:06.002 --> 00:04:07.637
  • Then it says all things that pertain to life and godliness
  • 00:04:07.704 --> 00:04:09.038
  • Pertain to life and godliness come through the knowledge.
  • 00:04:09.105 --> 00:04:10.740
  • Come through the knowledge. and we have a lot of wrong
  • 00:04:10.807 --> 00:04:12.642
  • And we have a lot of wrong knowledge about god. and let
  • 00:04:12.709 --> 00:04:15.278
  • Knowledge about god. and let me just say some things. i'm not
  • 00:04:15.345 --> 00:04:17.046
  • Me just say some things. i'm not against true christianity, but
  • 00:04:17.113 --> 00:04:20.350
  • Against true christianity, but i am against religion. and the
  • 00:04:20.416 --> 00:04:23.052
  • I am against religion. and the distinction that i make in those
  • 00:04:23.119 --> 00:04:24.721
  • Distinction that i make in those words is that religion is what
  • 00:04:24.787 --> 00:04:26.889
  • Words is that religion is what man says about god. true
  • 00:04:26.956 --> 00:04:30.360
  • Man says about god. true christianity is god revealing
  • 00:04:30.426 --> 00:04:33.396
  • Christianity is god revealing himself, and it conforms to this
  • 00:04:33.463 --> 00:04:35.531
  • Himself, and it conforms to this word perfectly. but religion
  • 00:04:35.598 --> 00:04:38.000
  • Word perfectly. but religion comes along and in a sense
  • 00:04:38.067 --> 00:04:39.736
  • Comes along and in a sense they've made their own god.
  • 00:04:39.802 --> 00:04:41.471
  • They've made their own god. they've made idols. they say god
  • 00:04:41.537 --> 00:04:43.873
  • They've made idols. they say god is the one who put sickness on
  • 00:04:43.940 --> 00:04:45.208
  • Is the one who put sickness on you. god is the one who struck
  • 00:04:45.274 --> 00:04:46.709
  • You. god is the one who struck your child and made them
  • 00:04:46.776 --> 00:04:47.877
  • Your child and made them quadriplegic. god is the one who
  • 00:04:47.944 --> 00:04:50.246
  • Quadriplegic. god is the one who does these things. and religion
  • 00:04:50.313 --> 00:04:53.082
  • Does these things. and religion comes along and creates a
  • 00:04:53.149 --> 00:04:54.484
  • Comes along and creates a god that is contrary to what
  • 00:04:54.550 --> 00:04:56.152
  • God that is contrary to what the word of god says. and i'm
  • 00:04:56.219 --> 00:04:58.421
  • The word of god says. and i'm against that. in a sense, that's
  • 00:04:58.488 --> 00:04:59.989
  • Against that. in a sense, that's idolatry. most people, i've
  • 00:05:00.056 --> 00:05:02.725
  • Idolatry. most people, i've actually heard people say
  • 00:05:02.792 --> 00:05:03.993
  • Actually heard people say before, i wouldn't serve a god
  • 00:05:04.060 --> 00:05:05.528
  • Before, i wouldn't serve a god who doesn't heal. i wouldn't
  • 00:05:05.595 --> 00:05:06.829
  • Who doesn't heal. i wouldn't serve a god who doesn't prosper
  • 00:05:06.896 --> 00:05:08.598
  • Serve a god who doesn't prosper or whatever. and i understand
  • 00:05:08.664 --> 00:05:10.400
  • Or whatever. and i understand what they're make... meaning,
  • 00:05:10.466 --> 00:05:12.735
  • What they're make... meaning, but did you know that's really
  • 00:05:12.802 --> 00:05:14.337
  • But did you know that's really wrong theology. it's not up to
  • 00:05:14.404 --> 00:05:17.407
  • Wrong theology. it's not up to us to pick and choose how we
  • 00:05:17.473 --> 00:05:19.208
  • Us to pick and choose how we want god to be. it's not up to
  • 00:05:19.275 --> 00:05:21.411
  • Want god to be. it's not up to us to say, god, i'm not going
  • 00:05:21.477 --> 00:05:22.678
  • Us to say, god, i'm not going to serve you unless you're
  • 00:05:22.745 --> 00:05:23.746
  • To serve you unless you're a good god and unless you
  • 00:05:23.813 --> 00:05:24.814
  • A good god and unless you do this and this and this.
  • 00:05:24.881 --> 00:05:26.149
  • You can't make god in your
  • 00:05:27.083 --> 00:05:28.518
  • You can't make god in your own image. you can't come
  • 00:05:28.584 --> 00:05:29.685
  • Own image. you can't come up with a god that you
  • 00:05:29.752 --> 00:05:31.187
  • Up with a god that you want him to be. now,
  • 00:05:31.254 --> 00:05:33.055
  • Want him to be. now, our god is a good god,
  • 00:05:33.122 --> 00:05:33.890
  • And this is one of the
  • 00:05:34.390 --> 00:05:35.391
  • Things that i'm going to be
  • 00:05:35.391 --> 00:05:36.225
  • Establishing through this series
  • 00:05:36.225 --> 00:05:37.794
  • That i think is going to make a
  • 00:05:37.794 --> 00:05:39.328
  • Huge difference once you begin
  • 00:05:39.328 --> 00:05:41.631
  • To understand the true nature of
  • 00:05:41.631 --> 00:05:43.966
  • God, that god is 100% good. and
  • 00:05:43.966 --> 00:05:48.371
  • He's not the one who's doing
  • 00:05:48.371 --> 00:05:49.806
  • All these terrible things.
  • 00:05:49.806 --> 00:05:51.707
  • Once you understand this,
  • 00:05:51.774 --> 00:05:52.909
  • Once you understand this, you're going to... your
  • 00:05:52.975 --> 00:05:53.843
  • You're going to... your appreciation and love of
  • 00:05:53.910 --> 00:05:55.111
  • Appreciation and love of god is going to go through
  • 00:05:55.178 --> 00:05:56.345
  • God is going to go through the roof. so i do believe that
  • 00:05:56.412 --> 00:05:58.281
  • The roof. so i do believe that god is a good god. but did you
  • 00:05:58.347 --> 00:06:00.550
  • God is a good god. but did you know, he's god and i'm not. if
  • 00:06:00.616 --> 00:06:03.553
  • Know, he's god and i'm not. if god was a bad god, if god was a
  • 00:06:03.619 --> 00:06:05.688
  • God was a bad god, if god was a mean god, he's god and i'm not,
  • 00:06:05.755 --> 00:06:08.458
  • Mean god, he's god and i'm not, and it's just up to me to yield
  • 00:06:08.524 --> 00:06:11.160
  • And it's just up to me to yield and to submit to whoever god is.
  • 00:06:11.227 --> 00:06:13.529
  • And to submit to whoever god is. and so i don't go to the word
  • 00:06:13.596 --> 00:06:14.931
  • And so i don't go to the word of god saying, god, i'm only
  • 00:06:14.997 --> 00:06:16.399
  • Of god saying, god, i'm only going to serve you if everything
  • 00:06:16.466 --> 00:06:17.967
  • Going to serve you if everything in here lines up with the way i
  • 00:06:18.034 --> 00:06:19.502
  • In here lines up with the way i want you to be. i just go to the
  • 00:06:19.569 --> 00:06:21.337
  • Want you to be. i just go to the word of god and whatever it says
  • 00:06:21.404 --> 00:06:23.272
  • Word of god and whatever it says about him, that's who he is and
  • 00:06:23.339 --> 00:06:24.707
  • About him, that's who he is and that's how i'm going to receive
  • 00:06:24.774 --> 00:06:26.108
  • That's how i'm going to receive him. and the fact that he is a
  • 00:06:26.175 --> 00:06:28.077
  • Him. and the fact that he is a good god and that he's greater
  • 00:06:28.144 --> 00:06:29.946
  • Good god and that he's greater and better than any of us could
  • 00:06:30.012 --> 00:06:32.181
  • And better than any of us could ever imagine, that's just like
  • 00:06:32.248 --> 00:06:33.716
  • Ever imagine, that's just like icing on the cake. but when
  • 00:06:33.783 --> 00:06:35.651
  • Icing on the cake. but when you go and you start saying,
  • 00:06:35.718 --> 00:06:37.220
  • You go and you start saying, god's... god's wrong here. if
  • 00:06:37.286 --> 00:06:39.889
  • God's... god's wrong here. if you've ever been... let me say
  • 00:06:39.956 --> 00:06:40.890
  • You've ever been... let me say it this way. if you've ever been
  • 00:06:40.957 --> 00:06:42.291
  • It this way. if you've ever been bitter and angry at god, if
  • 00:06:42.358 --> 00:06:44.727
  • Bitter and angry at god, if you've ever felt like god let
  • 00:06:44.794 --> 00:06:46.262
  • You've ever felt like god let you down, if you ever felt like
  • 00:06:46.329 --> 00:06:48.331
  • You down, if you ever felt like god is the source of some
  • 00:06:48.397 --> 00:06:50.933
  • God is the source of some tragedy in your life, you don't
  • 00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.237
  • Tragedy in your life, you don't understand the true nature and
  • 00:06:54.303 --> 00:06:56.405
  • Understand the true nature and character of god. you know,
  • 00:06:56.472 --> 00:06:59.442
  • Character of god. you know, there's a man, i'm not going
  • 00:06:59.509 --> 00:07:00.276
  • There's a man, i'm not going to call his name, but he was
  • 00:07:00.343 --> 00:07:02.578
  • To call his name, but he was raised a presbyterian. he and
  • 00:07:02.645 --> 00:07:04.413
  • Raised a presbyterian. he and his sister were very close,
  • 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.482
  • His sister were very close, and when they were just
  • 00:07:06.549 --> 00:07:07.550
  • And when they were just children, his sister got sick
  • 00:07:07.617 --> 00:07:09.185
  • Children, his sister got sick and died, and the presbyterian
  • 00:07:09.252 --> 00:07:10.920
  • And died, and the presbyterian church came and said that god is
  • 00:07:10.987 --> 00:07:13.289
  • Church came and said that god is the one who killed her. it was
  • 00:07:13.356 --> 00:07:14.657
  • The one who killed her. it was god's will. god needed a little
  • 00:07:14.724 --> 00:07:16.893
  • God's will. god needed a little angel in heaven. and this man
  • 00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:19.862
  • Angel in heaven. and this man said, he... prior to that time
  • 00:07:19.929 --> 00:07:22.398
  • Said, he... prior to that time he had been going to church
  • 00:07:22.465 --> 00:07:23.599
  • He had been going to church and assumed that there was
  • 00:07:23.666 --> 00:07:25.234
  • And assumed that there was a god. i don't believe he had a
  • 00:07:25.301 --> 00:07:26.435
  • A god. i don't believe he had a personal relationship, but he
  • 00:07:26.502 --> 00:07:28.170
  • Personal relationship, but he at least acknowledged god.
  • 00:07:28.237 --> 00:07:30.039
  • At least acknowledged god. but when he was told that
  • 00:07:30.106 --> 00:07:31.407
  • But when he was told that god is the one that killed
  • 00:07:31.474 --> 00:07:33.009
  • God is the one that killed his little sister, he said,
  • 00:07:33.075 --> 00:07:34.944
  • His little sister, he said, if there is a god, i hate him.
  • 00:07:35.011 --> 00:07:37.380
  • If there is a god, i hate him. and this man has dedicated
  • 00:07:37.446 --> 00:07:39.448
  • And this man has dedicated his life to turning people away
  • 00:07:39.515 --> 00:07:42.385
  • His life to turning people away from the judeo-christian ethics
  • 00:07:42.451 --> 00:07:44.921
  • From the judeo-christian ethics of the bible because god
  • 00:07:44.987 --> 00:07:47.490
  • Of the bible because god was misrepresented to
  • 00:07:47.557 --> 00:07:48.724
  • Was misrepresented to him. and i'm not going
  • 00:07:48.791 --> 00:07:50.293
  • Him. and i'm not going to tell you who this is,
  • 00:07:50.359 --> 00:07:51.093
  • To tell you who this is, but it... it is a person that
  • 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:52.762
  • But it... it is a person that i guarantee you every person
  • 00:07:52.828 --> 00:07:53.996
  • I guarantee you every person that's watching this program has
  • 00:07:54.063 --> 00:07:55.565
  • That's watching this program has been influenced by him some way
  • 00:07:55.631 --> 00:07:57.199
  • Been influenced by him some way or another. you've seen things
  • 00:07:57.266 --> 00:07:58.868
  • Or another. you've seen things that he's done on television.
  • 00:07:58.935 --> 00:08:00.770
  • That he's done on television. and he has a bitterness in his
  • 00:08:00.836 --> 00:08:02.939
  • And he has a bitterness in his heart that influences everything
  • 00:08:03.005 --> 00:08:04.807
  • Heart that influences everything that he does. did you know
  • 00:08:04.874 --> 00:08:06.275
  • That he does. did you know there's another example
  • 00:08:06.342 --> 00:08:07.310
  • There's another example of mahatma gandhi,
  • 00:08:07.376 --> 00:08:08.311
  • And mahatma gandhi is
  • 00:08:08.811 --> 00:08:10.313
  • The one who led people
  • 00:08:10.313 --> 00:08:12.348
  • In india to independence
  • 00:08:12.348 --> 00:08:14.317
  • From the british empire.
  • 00:08:14.317 --> 00:08:15.718
  • He's a super influential man.
  • 00:08:15.718 --> 00:08:17.954
  • Now, he's died now, but i
  • 00:08:18.020 --> 00:08:19.889
  • Now, he's died now, but i mean, back in the day, he... he
  • 00:08:19.956 --> 00:08:21.424
  • Mean, back in the day, he... he was the one that god used. but
  • 00:08:21.490 --> 00:08:23.192
  • Was the one that god used. but he was exiled for a period of
  • 00:08:23.259 --> 00:08:25.061
  • He was exiled for a period of time in africa. and while he was
  • 00:08:25.127 --> 00:08:27.897
  • Time in africa. and while he was in exile, he actually read the
  • 00:08:27.964 --> 00:08:29.665
  • In exile, he actually read the new testament. and he was so
  • 00:08:29.732 --> 00:08:32.101
  • New testament. and he was so touched by it that he went to
  • 00:08:32.168 --> 00:08:33.736
  • Touched by it that he went to a presbyterian church to make
  • 00:08:33.803 --> 00:08:36.405
  • A presbyterian church to make a profession of his faith in
  • 00:08:36.472 --> 00:08:38.708
  • A profession of his faith in africa. and because he was
  • 00:08:38.774 --> 00:08:41.010
  • Africa. and because he was a black man and these were
  • 00:08:41.077 --> 00:08:42.411
  • A black man and these were white missionaries who were
  • 00:08:42.478 --> 00:08:44.714
  • White missionaries who were ministering in this church, they
  • 00:08:44.780 --> 00:08:47.216
  • Ministering in this church, they turned him away because he was
  • 00:08:47.283 --> 00:08:48.718
  • Turned him away because he was black. and he said, i would've
  • 00:08:48.784 --> 00:08:51.654
  • Black. and he said, i would've been a christian if i hadn't of
  • 00:08:51.721 --> 00:08:53.289
  • Been a christian if i hadn't of met one. did you know that those
  • 00:08:53.356 --> 00:08:55.524
  • Met one. did you know that those people who were presbyterians,
  • 00:08:55.591 --> 00:08:56.726
  • People who were presbyterians, they probably were born again
  • 00:08:56.792 --> 00:08:58.394
  • They probably were born again because they were from some
  • 00:08:58.461 --> 00:09:00.896
  • Because they were from some european country or maybe
  • 00:09:00.963 --> 00:09:02.365
  • European country or maybe america and they were white and
  • 00:09:02.431 --> 00:09:04.600
  • America and they were white and they were there ministering to
  • 00:09:04.667 --> 00:09:05.968
  • They were there ministering to people in a foreign land they
  • 00:09:06.035 --> 00:09:07.970
  • People in a foreign land they probably were saved, i don't
  • 00:09:08.037 --> 00:09:09.972
  • Probably were saved, i don't know. but they certainly didn't
  • 00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:12.541
  • Know. but they certainly didn't represent god correctly. they
  • 00:09:12.608 --> 00:09:14.844
  • Represent god correctly. they didn't present the true nature
  • 00:09:14.910 --> 00:09:16.379
  • Didn't present the true nature of god. i guarantee you god's
  • 00:09:16.445 --> 00:09:17.713
  • Of god. i guarantee you god's not rejecting anybody on the
  • 00:09:17.780 --> 00:09:19.615
  • Not rejecting anybody on the basis of their color of their
  • 00:09:19.682 --> 00:09:21.917
  • Basis of their color of their skin or their education or male
  • 00:09:21.984 --> 00:09:24.220
  • Skin or their education or male or female and things like this.
  • 00:09:24.286 --> 00:09:26.922
  • Or female and things like this. and yet people misrepresent god
  • 00:09:26.989 --> 00:09:29.258
  • And yet people misrepresent god all of the time. god has been
  • 00:09:29.325 --> 00:09:32.094
  • All of the time. god has been the most maligned and criticized
  • 00:09:32.161 --> 00:09:34.964
  • The most maligned and criticized and misrepresented person that
  • 00:09:35.031 --> 00:09:37.433
  • And misrepresented person that has ever existed. and sad to say
  • 00:09:37.500 --> 00:09:40.236
  • Has ever existed. and sad to say religion is a large part of it.
  • 00:09:40.302 --> 00:09:42.204
  • Religion is a large part of it. did you know that there are lots
  • 00:09:42.271 --> 00:09:43.773
  • Did you know that there are lots of people that are rejecting
  • 00:09:43.839 --> 00:09:46.742
  • Of people that are rejecting the... the concept of god, the
  • 00:09:46.809 --> 00:09:49.378
  • The... the concept of god, the way that religion has presented
  • 00:09:49.445 --> 00:09:51.380
  • Way that religion has presented god, but they haven't truly
  • 00:09:51.447 --> 00:09:52.715
  • God, but they haven't truly represent... mis... they haven't
  • 00:09:52.782 --> 00:09:54.450
  • Represent... mis... they haven't truly rejected god, they're just
  • 00:09:54.517 --> 00:09:56.886
  • Truly rejected god, they're just rejecting this religious concept
  • 00:09:56.952 --> 00:09:59.455
  • Rejecting this religious concept of god. if anybody was to ever
  • 00:09:59.522 --> 00:10:02.291
  • Of god. if anybody was to ever really see who god truly is, his
  • 00:10:02.358 --> 00:10:04.927
  • Really see who god truly is, his real heart, his nature, his
  • 00:10:04.994 --> 00:10:07.463
  • Real heart, his nature, his character, nobody, nobody would
  • 00:10:07.530 --> 00:10:10.166
  • Character, nobody, nobody would ever reject god. that's a big
  • 00:10:10.232 --> 00:10:14.003
  • Ever reject god. that's a big statement. and i know that
  • 00:10:14.070 --> 00:10:15.738
  • Statement. and i know that there's people that are living a
  • 00:10:15.805 --> 00:10:17.807
  • There's people that are living a sinful life and man, maybe
  • 00:10:17.873 --> 00:10:19.375
  • Sinful life and man, maybe you're a drunk, maybe you're an
  • 00:10:19.442 --> 00:10:21.510
  • You're a drunk, maybe you're an addict, maybe you're living in
  • 00:10:21.577 --> 00:10:23.245
  • Addict, maybe you're living in sexual sin and you are just
  • 00:10:23.312 --> 00:10:25.748
  • Sexual sin and you are just incensed by what i'm saying
  • 00:10:25.815 --> 00:10:27.016
  • Incensed by what i'm saying because people at church have
  • 00:10:27.083 --> 00:10:28.617
  • Because people at church have condemned you and treated you
  • 00:10:28.684 --> 00:10:30.386
  • Condemned you and treated you terrible and stuff and you were
  • 00:10:30.453 --> 00:10:32.488
  • Terrible and stuff and you were just angry at god and you
  • 00:10:32.555 --> 00:10:34.090
  • Just angry at god and you are... you are thinking that,
  • 00:10:34.156 --> 00:10:35.825
  • Are... you are thinking that, no, that's not true. god is this
  • 00:10:35.891 --> 00:10:37.526
  • No, that's not true. god is this harsh god. i actually had one
  • 00:10:37.593 --> 00:10:39.628
  • Harsh god. i actually had one man that came to me, and i was
  • 00:10:39.695 --> 00:10:41.397
  • Man that came to me, and i was teaching on this very subject,
  • 00:10:41.464 --> 00:10:42.998
  • Teaching on this very subject, and he came and he... he
  • 00:10:43.065 --> 00:10:44.633
  • And he came and he... he repented, but he said prior to
  • 00:10:44.700 --> 00:10:46.268
  • Repented, but he said prior to the teaching that he heard, he
  • 00:10:46.335 --> 00:10:48.237
  • The teaching that he heard, he actually envisioned god as being
  • 00:10:48.304 --> 00:10:50.773
  • Actually envisioned god as being an old, old man with a long
  • 00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:53.175
  • An old, old man with a long beard that was all the way down
  • 00:10:53.242 --> 00:10:54.710
  • Beard that was all the way down past his waist, leaning over a
  • 00:10:54.777 --> 00:10:57.680
  • Past his waist, leaning over a banister in heaven, with a
  • 00:10:57.747 --> 00:11:00.649
  • Banister in heaven, with a lightning bolt in his hand, just
  • 00:11:00.716 --> 00:11:02.518
  • Lightning bolt in his hand, just looking for somebody to step out
  • 00:11:02.585 --> 00:11:04.720
  • Looking for somebody to step out of line and boom, god was going
  • 00:11:04.787 --> 00:11:06.522
  • Of line and boom, god was going to zap them. god was going to
  • 00:11:06.589 --> 00:11:08.124
  • To zap them. god was going to hit them with sickness, with
  • 00:11:08.190 --> 00:11:10.059
  • Hit them with sickness, with poverty. he was going to judge
  • 00:11:10.126 --> 00:11:11.794
  • Poverty. he was going to judge them. he was going to remove his
  • 00:11:11.861 --> 00:11:13.763
  • Them. he was going to remove his fellowship from them. i'm
  • 00:11:13.829 --> 00:11:15.698
  • Fellowship from them. i'm getting ahead of myself. i'm
  • 00:11:15.765 --> 00:11:16.866
  • Getting ahead of myself. i'm going to explain this in a lot
  • 00:11:16.932 --> 00:11:18.000
  • Going to explain this in a lot more detail, but i'll be showing
  • 00:11:18.067 --> 00:11:19.502
  • More detail, but i'll be showing you under this new covenant that
  • 00:11:19.568 --> 00:11:21.036
  • You under this new covenant that we have that god will never hold
  • 00:11:21.103 --> 00:11:23.639
  • We have that god will never hold your sin against you. he will
  • 00:11:23.706 --> 00:11:25.841
  • Your sin against you. he will never deal with you based on
  • 00:11:25.908 --> 00:11:28.043
  • Never deal with you based on your sin. and if you are one of
  • 00:11:28.110 --> 00:11:30.546
  • Your sin. and if you are one of those people that is in a
  • 00:11:30.613 --> 00:11:31.814
  • Those people that is in a religious system that is
  • 00:11:31.881 --> 00:11:33.282
  • Religious system that is teaching that god loves us
  • 00:11:33.349 --> 00:11:35.317
  • Teaching that god loves us directly proportional to our
  • 00:11:35.384 --> 00:11:37.686
  • Directly proportional to our performance, then what i'm
  • 00:11:37.753 --> 00:11:39.555
  • Performance, then what i'm saying is very, very offensive
  • 00:11:39.622 --> 00:11:41.557
  • Saying is very, very offensive to you. but that is a
  • 00:11:41.624 --> 00:11:42.992
  • To you. but that is a misrepresentation of god.
  • 00:11:43.058 --> 00:11:45.194
  • Misrepresentation of god. and some of you'll say, now
  • 00:11:45.261 --> 00:11:46.295
  • And some of you'll say, now wait a minute, i can show you
  • 00:11:46.362 --> 00:11:47.496
  • Wait a minute, i can show you scriptures over here where it
  • 00:11:47.563 --> 00:11:49.331
  • Scriptures over here where it says, and unless you do this and
  • 00:11:49.398 --> 00:11:51.100
  • Says, and unless you do this and this and this, god won't bless
  • 00:11:51.167 --> 00:11:52.735
  • This and this, god won't bless you. deuteronomy, chapter 28,
  • 00:11:52.802 --> 00:11:54.870
  • You. deuteronomy, chapter 28, you have to observe to do
  • 00:11:54.937 --> 00:11:56.405
  • You have to observe to do according to all these things.
  • 00:11:56.472 --> 00:11:57.807
  • According to all these things. and if you do, you'll get the
  • 00:11:57.873 --> 00:11:58.841
  • And if you do, you'll get the blessings, but if you rebel,
  • 00:11:58.908 --> 00:12:00.676
  • Blessings, but if you rebel, then verses 15 through 68, all
  • 00:12:00.743 --> 00:12:03.245
  • Then verses 15 through 68, all of these curses are going to
  • 00:12:03.312 --> 00:12:04.346
  • Of these curses are going to come upon you. you're saying
  • 00:12:04.413 --> 00:12:05.781
  • Come upon you. you're saying something contrary to that. i'm
  • 00:12:05.848 --> 00:12:07.616
  • Something contrary to that. i'm saying that there was a time
  • 00:12:07.683 --> 00:12:09.084
  • Saying that there was a time that god dealt with people
  • 00:12:09.151 --> 00:12:10.452
  • That god dealt with people that way, and i'm going to
  • 00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:11.320
  • That way, and i'm going to explain why he did it, but
  • 00:12:11.387 --> 00:12:13.656
  • Explain why he did it, but now he doesn't curse us
  • 00:12:13.722 --> 00:12:16.592
  • Now he doesn't curse us and bless us. all... god
  • 00:12:16.659 --> 00:12:18.727
  • And bless us. all... god took the curse for us.
  • 00:12:18.794 --> 00:12:20.329
  • Galatians, chapter 3, verse 13,
  • 00:12:20.396 --> 00:12:22.565
  • Galatians, chapter 3, verse 13, says, christ became a curse for
  • 00:12:22.631 --> 00:12:24.967
  • Says, christ became a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is
  • 00:12:25.034 --> 00:12:26.869
  • Us: for it is written, cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:
  • 00:12:26.936 --> 00:12:28.404
  • Every one that hangs on a tree: that the blessings of abraham
  • 00:12:28.470 --> 00:12:29.872
  • That the blessings of abraham might come upon the gentiles
  • 00:12:29.939 --> 00:12:31.640
  • Might come upon the gentiles through faith. and so god
  • 00:12:31.707 --> 00:12:33.509
  • Has borne our curse. and so i'm
  • 00:12:33.576 --> 00:12:36.679
  • Has borne our curse. and so i'm saying that through... through
  • 00:12:36.745 --> 00:12:38.781
  • Saying that through... through jesus, deuteronomy 28:1 and 2,
  • 00:12:38.848 --> 00:12:42.218
  • Jesus, deuteronomy 28:1 and 2, has been fulfilled. it's not
  • 00:12:42.284 --> 00:12:43.652
  • Us having to hearken diligently
  • 00:12:43.719 --> 00:12:45.688
  • Us having to hearken diligently unto the voice of the lord
  • 00:12:45.754 --> 00:12:46.856
  • Unto the voice of the lord thy god. now that's the way it
  • 00:12:46.922 --> 00:12:47.957
  • Thy god. now that's the way it was under the old covenant.
  • 00:12:48.023 --> 00:12:49.458
  • I'm going to explain why he
  • 00:12:49.525 --> 00:12:51.026
  • I'm going to explain why he did that. i can't tell you
  • 00:12:51.093 --> 00:12:51.861
  • Everything i know in one
  • 00:12:52.394 --> 00:12:53.395
  • Broadcast. i'm talking as
  • 00:12:53.395 --> 00:12:55.331
  • Fast as i can. you need to get
  • 00:12:55.331 --> 00:12:57.199
  • These materials. i... i'm not
  • 00:12:57.199 --> 00:12:58.934
  • Going to explain it totally
  • 00:12:58.934 --> 00:13:00.669
  • Today, but there was a
  • 00:13:00.669 --> 00:13:02.071
  • Purpose in god doing that.
  • 00:13:02.071 --> 00:13:04.039
  • But under the new
  • 00:13:04.106 --> 00:13:05.441
  • But under the new covenant, you, if you accept
  • 00:13:05.507 --> 00:13:07.743
  • Covenant, you, if you accept jesus as your lord, you will
  • 00:13:07.810 --> 00:13:09.578
  • Jesus as your lord, you will never be cursed, because jesus
  • 00:13:09.645 --> 00:13:12.147
  • Never be cursed, because jesus bore that curse for you. all
  • 00:13:12.214 --> 00:13:13.983
  • Bore that curse for you. all that's left is the blessings.
  • 00:13:14.049 --> 00:13:16.018
  • That's left is the blessings. now, you have to believe in
  • 00:13:16.085 --> 00:13:18.053
  • Now, you have to believe in order to receive. it's not just
  • 00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:19.722
  • Order to receive. it's not just like automatic because you're
  • 00:13:19.788 --> 00:13:21.257
  • Like automatic because you're born again that all of these
  • 00:13:21.323 --> 00:13:22.625
  • Born again that all of these blessings just automatically
  • 00:13:22.691 --> 00:13:24.193
  • Blessings just automatically come upon you. you do have
  • 00:13:24.260 --> 00:13:26.128
  • Come upon you. you do have to believe and cooperate with
  • 00:13:26.195 --> 00:13:28.130
  • To believe and cooperate with god, but god has redeemed you
  • 00:13:28.197 --> 00:13:30.733
  • God, but god has redeemed you from the curse. he's wanting to
  • 00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:32.167
  • From the curse. he's wanting to do nothing but bless you and
  • 00:13:32.234 --> 00:13:33.802
  • Do nothing but bless you and release his power in your life.
  • 00:13:33.869 --> 00:13:36.572
  • Release his power in your life. and that is different than the
  • 00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:39.108
  • And that is different than the way he dealt with people under
  • 00:13:39.174 --> 00:13:40.576
  • Way he dealt with people under the old covenant. man, i've said
  • 00:13:40.643 --> 00:13:44.280
  • The old covenant. man, i've said a lot of things here that has
  • 00:13:44.346 --> 00:13:46.715
  • A lot of things here that has either enraged people or
  • 00:13:46.782 --> 00:13:48.751
  • Either enraged people or confused people, and i just pray
  • 00:13:48.817 --> 00:13:52.388
  • Confused people, and i just pray you can stick with me until i'm
  • 00:13:52.454 --> 00:13:54.490
  • You can stick with me until i'm able to explain all of these
  • 00:13:54.556 --> 00:13:55.891
  • Able to explain all of these things. let me give you an
  • 00:13:55.958 --> 00:13:56.725
  • Things. let me give you an example here out of the 8th
  • 00:13:56.792 --> 00:13:58.127
  • Example here out of the 8th chapter of the book of john.
  • 00:13:58.193 --> 00:14:00.095
  • This... jesus had been teaching
  • 00:14:01.864 --> 00:14:03.299
  • This... jesus had been teaching on the grace of god and the jews
  • 00:14:03.365 --> 00:14:05.701
  • On the grace of god and the jews of jesus' day were legalists.
  • 00:14:05.768 --> 00:14:08.304
  • Of jesus' day were legalists. they were so strict. did you
  • 00:14:08.370 --> 00:14:09.939
  • They were so strict. did you know that even the essenses,
  • 00:14:10.005 --> 00:14:11.407
  • Know that even the essenses, a group of people that lived
  • 00:14:11.473 --> 00:14:12.841
  • A group of people that lived around the dead sea, they're the
  • 00:14:12.908 --> 00:14:14.009
  • Around the dead sea, they're the ones that wrote the dead sea
  • 00:14:14.076 --> 00:14:15.177
  • Ones that wrote the dead sea scrolls, did you know that this
  • 00:14:15.244 --> 00:14:16.812
  • Scrolls, did you know that this religious group of essenses, the
  • 00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.781
  • Religious group of essenses, the whole thing was just devoted.
  • 00:14:18.847 --> 00:14:20.683
  • Whole thing was just devoted. it was like a commune or
  • 00:14:20.749 --> 00:14:22.584
  • It was like a commune or something. it was a monastery
  • 00:14:22.651 --> 00:14:24.420
  • Something. it was a monastery type of thing. and they were so
  • 00:14:24.486 --> 00:14:27.156
  • Type of thing. and they were so committed to keeping the law
  • 00:14:27.222 --> 00:14:29.158
  • Committed to keeping the law that they actually refused to
  • 00:14:29.224 --> 00:14:31.527
  • That they actually refused to have a bowel movement on a
  • 00:14:31.593 --> 00:14:33.028
  • Have a bowel movement on a sabbath because they considered
  • 00:14:33.095 --> 00:14:34.663
  • Sabbath because they considered that work. that's pretty strict.
  • 00:14:34.730 --> 00:14:37.499
  • That work. that's pretty strict. did you know the jews of jesus'
  • 00:14:37.566 --> 00:14:38.968
  • Did you know the jews of jesus' day, they counted how many steps
  • 00:14:39.034 --> 00:14:40.736
  • Day, they counted how many steps you could take on a sabbath day?
  • 00:14:40.803 --> 00:14:43.539
  • You could take on a sabbath day? and if you took more than that,
  • 00:14:43.605 --> 00:14:44.940
  • And if you took more than that, you were under a curse. if you
  • 00:14:45.007 --> 00:14:46.842
  • You were under a curse. if you did certain things, if you, you
  • 00:14:46.909 --> 00:14:48.444
  • Did certain things, if you, you know, just on and on, they were
  • 00:14:48.510 --> 00:14:49.878
  • Know, just on and on, they were so legalistic. and here came
  • 00:14:49.945 --> 00:14:52.548
  • So legalistic. and here came jesus, and he wasn't breaking
  • 00:14:52.614 --> 00:14:55.784
  • Jesus, and he wasn't breaking the law that was written in the
  • 00:14:55.851 --> 00:14:57.619
  • The law that was written in the word of god, but he was breaking
  • 00:14:57.686 --> 00:14:59.188
  • Word of god, but he was breaking their religious traditions about
  • 00:14:59.254 --> 00:15:01.657
  • Their religious traditions about the sabbath. he actually had his
  • 00:15:01.724 --> 00:15:03.926
  • The sabbath. he actually had his disciples go and walk through
  • 00:15:03.993 --> 00:15:06.295
  • Disciples go and walk through the grain fields. and it was a
  • 00:15:06.362 --> 00:15:08.097
  • The grain fields. and it was a law in those days that you could
  • 00:15:08.163 --> 00:15:09.898
  • Law in those days that you could walk through a field, and you
  • 00:15:09.965 --> 00:15:11.233
  • Walk through a field, and you could take what you could hold
  • 00:15:11.300 --> 00:15:12.768
  • Could take what you could hold in your own hand and eat it.
  • 00:15:12.835 --> 00:15:14.536
  • In your own hand and eat it. this was a way of dealing with
  • 00:15:14.603 --> 00:15:15.971
  • This was a way of dealing with people that needed something,
  • 00:15:16.038 --> 00:15:17.806
  • People that needed something, you know, the hungry and stuff
  • 00:15:17.873 --> 00:15:19.608
  • You know, the hungry and stuff like this. and so you could go
  • 00:15:19.675 --> 00:15:20.943
  • Like this. and so you could go through a field and take the
  • 00:15:21.010 --> 00:15:22.644
  • Through a field and take the grain and eat some of the grain,
  • 00:15:22.711 --> 00:15:24.646
  • Grain and eat some of the grain, but you couldn't do it on a
  • 00:15:24.713 --> 00:15:25.614
  • But you couldn't do it on a sabbath. that was considered
  • 00:15:25.681 --> 00:15:27.082
  • Sabbath. that was considered work. they considered it
  • 00:15:27.149 --> 00:15:28.317
  • Work. they considered it reaping. so when jesus and his
  • 00:15:28.384 --> 00:15:30.419
  • Reaping. so when jesus and his disciples were walking through a
  • 00:15:30.486 --> 00:15:32.121
  • Disciples were walking through a field and they took some grain
  • 00:15:32.187 --> 00:15:33.622
  • Field and they took some grain and began to rub it in their
  • 00:15:33.689 --> 00:15:34.656
  • And began to rub it in their hands to get the hull off so
  • 00:15:34.723 --> 00:15:36.625
  • Hands to get the hull off so that they could eat the grain,
  • 00:15:36.692 --> 00:15:38.260
  • That they could eat the grain, the pharisees said, you're
  • 00:15:38.327 --> 00:15:39.595
  • The pharisees said, you're breaking the sabbath. and they
  • 00:15:39.661 --> 00:15:41.430
  • Breaking the sabbath. and they accused him of breaking the
  • 00:15:41.497 --> 00:15:42.664
  • Accused him of breaking the sabbath. he didn't break
  • 00:15:42.731 --> 00:15:44.266
  • Sabbath. he didn't break the sabbath as it was
  • 00:15:44.333 --> 00:15:45.601
  • The sabbath as it was prescribed in the word
  • 00:15:45.667 --> 00:15:46.702
  • Prescribed in the word of god, but they broke...
  • 00:15:46.769 --> 00:15:47.970
  • Of god, but they broke... he broke their religious
  • 00:15:48.037 --> 00:15:49.405
  • He broke their religious traditions. and he said
  • 00:15:49.471 --> 00:15:51.206
  • In mark, chapter 7, verse 13,
  • 00:15:51.273 --> 00:15:53.042
  • In mark, chapter 7, verse 13, that through their traditions
  • 00:15:53.108 --> 00:15:54.410
  • That through their traditions they had made the word of god
  • 00:15:54.476 --> 00:15:55.778
  • They had made the word of god of none effect... so they were
  • 00:15:55.844 --> 00:15:58.347
  • Just constantly after jesus
  • 00:15:58.414 --> 00:16:00.883
  • Just constantly after jesus and they were trying to accuse
  • 00:16:00.949 --> 00:16:02.818
  • And they were trying to accuse him of breaking the law of
  • 00:16:02.885 --> 00:16:04.586
  • Him of breaking the law of moses because under the law of
  • 00:16:04.653 --> 00:16:06.455
  • Moses because under the law of moses, if you broke the law of
  • 00:16:06.522 --> 00:16:08.490
  • Moses, if you broke the law of moses, you had to be stoned to
  • 00:16:08.557 --> 00:16:10.692
  • Moses, you had to be stoned to death. you could be stoned to
  • 00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:12.261
  • Death. you could be stoned to death depending on what the
  • 00:16:12.327 --> 00:16:13.495
  • Death depending on what the transgression was. and so they
  • 00:16:13.562 --> 00:16:15.597
  • Transgression was. and so they thought that they had jesus
  • 00:16:15.664 --> 00:16:18.300
  • Thought that they had jesus in a situation that was like a
  • 00:16:18.367 --> 00:16:20.302
  • In a situation that was like a catch-22. any decision he made,
  • 00:16:20.369 --> 00:16:23.772
  • Catch-22. any decision he made, he would be in trouble because
  • 00:16:23.839 --> 00:16:25.307
  • He would be in trouble because what they did was bring a woman
  • 00:16:25.374 --> 00:16:26.842
  • What they did was bring a woman taken in the very act of
  • 00:16:26.909 --> 00:16:28.243
  • Taken in the very act of adultery and they brought her
  • 00:16:28.310 --> 00:16:30.079
  • Adultery and they brought her to jesus. and they quoted
  • 00:16:30.145 --> 00:16:31.380
  • From leviticus, chapter 18,
  • 00:16:31.447 --> 00:16:32.381
  • From leviticus, chapter 18, which says that if you find
  • 00:16:32.448 --> 00:16:33.882
  • Which says that if you find someone in the act of adultery,
  • 00:16:33.949 --> 00:16:36.285
  • Someone in the act of adultery, they had to be stoned to death.
  • 00:16:36.351 --> 00:16:38.987
  • So when they brought this
  • 00:16:39.054 --> 00:16:40.389
  • So when they brought this woman to jesus, they said,
  • 00:16:40.456 --> 00:16:42.191
  • Moses in the law say that
  • 00:16:42.257 --> 00:16:44.026
  • Moses in the law say that this woman has to be stoned
  • 00:16:44.093 --> 00:16:45.694
  • This woman has to be stoned to death, but what do you say?
  • 00:16:45.761 --> 00:16:48.497
  • To death, but what do you say? and again, they thought
  • 00:16:48.564 --> 00:16:49.731
  • That if he did what the word
  • 00:16:49.798 --> 00:16:51.733
  • That if he did what the word says, the law of moses, and
  • 00:16:51.800 --> 00:16:53.869
  • Says, the law of moses, and if he stoned this woman to
  • 00:16:53.936 --> 00:16:55.370
  • If he stoned this woman to death, then all the people
  • 00:16:55.437 --> 00:16:56.839
  • Death, then all the people who had been following him,
  • 00:16:56.905 --> 00:16:58.073
  • Who had been following him, because of the mercy and the
  • 00:16:58.140 --> 00:16:59.508
  • Because of the mercy and the grace, and he had been teaching
  • 00:16:59.575 --> 00:17:01.076
  • Grace, and he had been teaching people that god is not this
  • 00:17:01.143 --> 00:17:02.644
  • People that god is not this angry god, god is a god of love.
  • 00:17:02.711 --> 00:17:04.780
  • God so loved the world that
  • 00:17:04.847 --> 00:17:06.548
  • God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son.
  • 00:17:06.615 --> 00:17:08.784
  • If he extended mercy towards
  • 00:17:08.851 --> 00:17:11.453
  • If he extended mercy towards this woman, they would be
  • 00:17:11.520 --> 00:17:12.988
  • This woman, they would be able to stone him to death,
  • 00:17:13.055 --> 00:17:14.523
  • Able to stone him to death, because leviticus, 18, says that
  • 00:17:14.590 --> 00:17:16.358
  • Because leviticus, 18, says that if you don't stone a person
  • 00:17:16.425 --> 00:17:17.893
  • If you don't stone a person who's committed adultery, then
  • 00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:19.228
  • Who's committed adultery, then you have to be stoned to death.
  • 00:17:19.294 --> 00:17:21.330
  • You have to be stoned to death. so they thought this is...
  • 00:17:21.396 --> 00:17:22.831
  • So they thought this is... either he's going to give
  • 00:17:22.898 --> 00:17:25.334
  • Either he's going to give mercy and not stone this
  • 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:27.169
  • Mercy and not stone this woman, and if that's what
  • 00:17:27.236 --> 00:17:28.203
  • Woman, and if that's what happens, then we have the
  • 00:17:28.270 --> 00:17:29.371
  • Happens, then we have the right to stone him to death. but
  • 00:17:29.438 --> 00:17:31.106
  • Right to stone him to death. but if he enforces what moses said
  • 00:17:31.173 --> 00:17:33.809
  • If he enforces what moses said in... in leviticus, 18, then the
  • 00:17:33.876 --> 00:17:36.111
  • In... in leviticus, 18, then the people that were drawn to him
  • 00:17:36.178 --> 00:17:37.279
  • People that were drawn to him because of the mercy and the
  • 00:17:37.346 --> 00:17:38.614
  • Because of the mercy and the grace and the love that he was
  • 00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:40.082
  • Grace and the love that he was preaching, they would forsake
  • 00:17:40.149 --> 00:17:41.750
  • Preaching, they would forsake him and say, well he preaches
  • 00:17:41.817 --> 00:17:42.885
  • Him and say, well he preaches it, but he doesn't live it. so
  • 00:17:42.951 --> 00:17:44.520
  • It, but he doesn't live it. so they thought they had him any
  • 00:17:44.586 --> 00:17:45.988
  • They thought they had him any way that he went. so that's the
  • 00:17:46.054 --> 00:17:48.490
  • Way that he went. so that's the background. and so, when they
  • 00:17:48.557 --> 00:17:51.627
  • Background. and so, when they first asked him this, he didn't
  • 00:17:51.693 --> 00:17:52.961
  • First asked him this, he didn't even answer their question. he
  • 00:17:53.028 --> 00:17:54.163
  • Even answer their question. he just stooped down and wrote on
  • 00:17:54.229 --> 00:17:56.331
  • Just stooped down and wrote on the ground. and you know, i've
  • 00:17:56.398 --> 00:17:57.900
  • The ground. and you know, i've got some opinions about what
  • 00:17:57.966 --> 00:17:59.301
  • Got some opinions about what he wrote, but the scripture
  • 00:17:59.368 --> 00:18:00.269
  • He wrote, but the scripture doesn't say, so it's really
  • 00:18:00.335 --> 00:18:01.603
  • Doesn't say, so it's really speculation. i'm not going
  • 00:18:01.670 --> 00:18:02.704
  • Speculation. i'm not going to go there. and it says
  • 00:18:02.771 --> 00:18:04.439
  • In verse 7, so when they
  • 00:18:04.506 --> 00:18:06.508
  • In verse 7, so when they continued asking him, he lifted
  • 00:18:06.575 --> 00:18:08.744
  • Continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them,
  • 00:18:08.810 --> 00:18:10.379
  • Up himself, and said unto them, he that is without sin among
  • 00:18:10.445 --> 00:18:12.581
  • He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone.
  • 00:18:12.648 --> 00:18:15.617
  • You, let him first cast a stone. and he stooped down, and wrote
  • 00:18:15.684 --> 00:18:17.619
  • And he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. and they which
  • 00:18:17.686 --> 00:18:19.154
  • On the ground. and they which heard it, being convicted by
  • 00:18:19.221 --> 00:18:20.489
  • Heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out
  • 00:18:20.556 --> 00:18:22.090
  • Their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the
  • 00:18:22.157 --> 00:18:23.725
  • One by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and
  • 00:18:23.792 --> 00:18:26.228
  • Eldest, even unto the last: and jesus was left alone, and the
  • 00:18:26.295 --> 00:18:27.896
  • Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
  • 00:18:27.963 --> 00:18:30.432
  • Woman standing in the midst. when jesus had lifted up
  • 00:18:30.499 --> 00:18:31.767
  • When jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the
  • 00:18:31.833 --> 00:18:33.468
  • Himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, woman,
  • 00:18:33.535 --> 00:18:36.038
  • Woman, he said unto her, woman, where are those thine accusers?
  • 00:18:36.104 --> 00:18:38.040
  • Where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? she
  • 00:18:38.106 --> 00:18:40.576
  • Hath no man condemned thee? she said, no man, lord. this wasn't
  • 00:18:40.642 --> 00:18:42.945
  • Just a respectful term.
  • 00:18:43.011 --> 00:18:45.380
  • Just a respectful term. she realized jesus had
  • 00:18:45.447 --> 00:18:46.848
  • She realized jesus had saved her life and she says,
  • 00:18:46.915 --> 00:18:48.717
  • Saved her life and she says, you,'re my lord. she just
  • 00:18:48.784 --> 00:18:50.319
  • You,'re my lord. she just submitted unto him.
  • 00:18:50.385 --> 00:18:51.653
  • No man, lord. and jesus
  • 00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:53.956
  • No man, lord. and jesus said unto her, neither do
  • 00:18:54.022 --> 00:18:55.524
  • Said unto her, neither do i condemn thee: go, and
  • 00:18:55.591 --> 00:18:56.925
  • I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. so this is
  • 00:18:56.992 --> 00:18:59.027
  • A tremendous, tremendous...
  • 00:18:59.094 --> 00:19:01.630
  • A tremendous, tremendous... it shows the wisdom of god
  • 00:19:01.697 --> 00:19:03.865
  • It shows the wisdom of god because he didn't condemn
  • 00:19:03.932 --> 00:19:05.467
  • Because he didn't condemn her, but he also didn't say,
  • 00:19:05.534 --> 00:19:07.903
  • Her, but he also didn't say, it's okay now, adultery is fine.
  • 00:19:07.970 --> 00:19:10.305
  • It's okay now, adultery is fine. we're changing the rules. see,
  • 00:19:10.372 --> 00:19:12.941
  • We're changing the rules. see, please understand what i'm
  • 00:19:13.008 --> 00:19:14.309
  • Please understand what i'm saying. as i go further into
  • 00:19:14.376 --> 00:19:15.844
  • Saying. as i go further into this, i am not going to say that
  • 00:19:15.911 --> 00:19:17.846
  • This, i am not going to say that the old testament has passed
  • 00:19:17.913 --> 00:19:19.414
  • The old testament has passed away. i'm not going to say that
  • 00:19:19.481 --> 00:19:21.116
  • Away. i'm not going to say that all of the laws and all of the
  • 00:19:21.183 --> 00:19:23.285
  • All of the laws and all of the things prescribed in the old
  • 00:19:23.352 --> 00:19:24.987
  • Things prescribed in the old testament, you know, were
  • 00:19:25.053 --> 00:19:26.588
  • Testament, you know, were wrong, and now we've got a
  • 00:19:26.655 --> 00:19:28.023
  • Wrong, and now we've got a better set of rules and stuff
  • 00:19:28.090 --> 00:19:30.425
  • Better set of rules and stuff like that. no, i'm going to say
  • 00:19:30.492 --> 00:19:32.327
  • Like that. no, i'm going to say that it's fulfilled. it has been
  • 00:19:32.394 --> 00:19:35.030
  • That it's fulfilled. it has been completed. there was nothing
  • 00:19:35.097 --> 00:19:37.266
  • Completed. there was nothing inaccurate. there was nothing
  • 00:19:37.332 --> 00:19:39.368
  • Inaccurate. there was nothing wrong with the old testament.
  • 00:19:39.434 --> 00:19:41.703
  • Wrong with the old testament. but it was incomplete. the old
  • 00:19:41.770 --> 00:19:44.906
  • But it was incomplete. the old testament sacrifices could never
  • 00:19:44.973 --> 00:19:46.908
  • Testament sacrifices could never take away sins. they were only
  • 00:19:46.975 --> 00:19:48.443
  • Take away sins. they were only symbolic. but now we have the
  • 00:19:48.510 --> 00:19:51.380
  • Symbolic. but now we have the sacrifice of the true lamb of
  • 00:19:51.446 --> 00:19:53.749
  • Sacrifice of the true lamb of god, jesus, and he paid for our
  • 00:19:53.815 --> 00:19:55.751
  • God, jesus, and he paid for our sins, and because of it, there
  • 00:19:55.817 --> 00:19:57.886
  • Sins, and because of it, there is a change in the way that god
  • 00:19:57.953 --> 00:20:00.722
  • Is a change in the way that god is dealing with people. he deals
  • 00:20:00.789 --> 00:20:02.190
  • Is dealing with people. he deals with us now through being
  • 00:20:02.257 --> 00:20:04.192
  • With us now through being totally cleansed and a brand
  • 00:20:04.259 --> 00:20:06.194
  • Totally cleansed and a brand new person. i'm going to go
  • 00:20:06.261 --> 00:20:08.196
  • New person. i'm going to go into more detail on this, but
  • 00:20:08.263 --> 00:20:09.498
  • John, chapter 4, verse 24, says,
  • 00:20:09.564 --> 00:20:11.533
  • John, chapter 4, verse 24, says, god is a spirit and those who
  • 00:20:11.600 --> 00:20:13.001
  • God is a spirit and those who worship him must worship him
  • 00:20:13.068 --> 00:20:14.636
  • Worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. the old
  • 00:20:14.703 --> 00:20:17.372
  • Testament dealt with people's
  • 00:20:17.439 --> 00:20:19.374
  • Testament dealt with people's outward person, their physical
  • 00:20:19.441 --> 00:20:21.243
  • Outward person, their physical body and their actions. the new
  • 00:20:21.310 --> 00:20:23.679
  • Body and their actions. the new testament, god is a spirit and
  • 00:20:23.745 --> 00:20:25.781
  • Testament, god is a spirit and to really relate to him, you've
  • 00:20:25.847 --> 00:20:27.282
  • To really relate to him, you've got to relate to him spirit
  • 00:20:27.349 --> 00:20:28.483
  • Got to relate to him spirit to spirit. and when you
  • 00:20:28.550 --> 00:20:30.285
  • To spirit. and when you make jesus your lord,
  • 00:20:30.352 --> 00:20:31.420
  • 2 corinthians 5:17, says,
  • 00:20:31.486 --> 00:20:33.789
  • 2 corinthians 5:17, says, you become a new creature:
  • 00:20:33.855 --> 00:20:36.091
  • You become a new creature: old things have passed away;
  • 00:20:36.158 --> 00:20:37.626
  • Old things have passed away; behold, all things are
  • 00:20:37.693 --> 00:20:39.127
  • Behold, all things are become new. that's
  • 00:20:39.194 --> 00:20:40.362
  • Not true in your physical body,
  • 00:20:40.429 --> 00:20:41.897
  • Not true in your physical body, it's not true in your mental,
  • 00:20:41.963 --> 00:20:43.598
  • It's not true in your mental, emotional part, but in your
  • 00:20:43.665 --> 00:20:45.167
  • Emotional part, but in your spirit, you are completely
  • 00:20:45.233 --> 00:20:47.202
  • Spirit, you are completely brand new, and you have to
  • 00:20:47.269 --> 00:20:48.937
  • Brand new, and you have to worship god through that born
  • 00:20:49.004 --> 00:20:51.173
  • Worship god through that born again spirit. it's no longer
  • 00:20:51.239 --> 00:20:53.141
  • Again spirit. it's no longer about all of these things
  • 00:20:53.208 --> 00:20:54.576
  • About all of these things that you do. now again, this
  • 00:20:54.643 --> 00:20:56.978
  • That you do. now again, this could be misunderstood because
  • 00:20:57.045 --> 00:20:58.313
  • Could be misunderstood because i'm not saying that you just
  • 00:20:58.380 --> 00:20:59.948
  • I'm not saying that you just all of a sudden throw caution
  • 00:21:00.015 --> 00:21:01.249
  • All of a sudden throw caution to the wind and start living in
  • 00:21:01.316 --> 00:21:02.584
  • To the wind and start living in adultery, lying, stealing, doing
  • 00:21:02.651 --> 00:21:04.319
  • Adultery, lying, stealing, doing anything. but no, your actions
  • 00:21:04.386 --> 00:21:06.988
  • Anything. but no, your actions now change as a byproduct, as
  • 00:21:07.055 --> 00:21:10.025
  • Now change as a byproduct, as a fruit of the changed heart
  • 00:21:10.092 --> 00:21:12.160
  • A fruit of the changed heart that you have. under the old
  • 00:21:12.227 --> 00:21:13.995
  • That you have. under the old covenant, it was like people
  • 00:21:14.062 --> 00:21:15.297
  • Covenant, it was like people trying to do the right thing on
  • 00:21:15.364 --> 00:21:16.998
  • Trying to do the right thing on the outside, hoping that that
  • 00:21:17.065 --> 00:21:18.967
  • The outside, hoping that that would change the inside. but
  • 00:21:19.034 --> 00:21:20.869
  • Would change the inside. but under the new covenant,
  • 00:21:20.936 --> 00:21:22.037
  • Under the new covenant, you get changed from the
  • 00:21:22.104 --> 00:21:23.338
  • You get changed from the inside out. and now i live
  • 00:21:23.405 --> 00:21:25.741
  • Inside out. and now i live a holy life as a fruit, not
  • 00:21:25.807 --> 00:21:29.044
  • A holy life as a fruit, not the root of salvation.
  • 00:21:29.111 --> 00:21:31.346
  • I've said so many things right
  • 00:21:32.347 --> 00:21:34.416
  • Here today that need much more
  • 00:21:34.416 --> 00:21:36.651
  • Explanation, and that's the
  • 00:21:36.651 --> 00:21:38.019
  • Reason that i'm teaching an
  • 00:21:38.019 --> 00:21:39.955
  • Entire series on this in my...
  • 00:21:39.955 --> 00:21:42.591
  • On my television programs.
  • 00:21:42.591 --> 00:21:44.493
  • But i'm telling you, this
  • 00:21:44.493 --> 00:21:45.861
  • Is essential that you
  • 00:21:45.861 --> 00:21:48.397
  • Understand these things.
  • 00:21:48.463 --> 00:21:49.998
  • And again, most people
  • 00:21:50.065 --> 00:21:51.500
  • And again, most people really it's like they have a
  • 00:21:51.566 --> 00:21:53.402
  • Really it's like they have a concept that is god the god
  • 00:21:53.468 --> 00:21:55.537
  • Concept that is god the god of the old testament, where
  • 00:21:55.604 --> 00:21:56.738
  • Of the old testament, where if you do something wrong,
  • 00:21:56.805 --> 00:21:57.973
  • If you do something wrong, there's going to be judgment,
  • 00:21:58.039 --> 00:21:59.107
  • There's going to be judgment, there's going to be punishment,
  • 00:21:59.174 --> 00:22:00.208
  • There's going to be punishment, there's rejection. or is he the
  • 00:22:00.275 --> 00:22:01.877
  • There's rejection. or is he the god of the new testament that
  • 00:22:01.943 --> 00:22:03.311
  • God of the new testament that takes a woman in the very act of
  • 00:22:03.378 --> 00:22:04.980
  • Takes a woman in the very act of adultery and doesn't... doesn't
  • 00:22:05.046 --> 00:22:08.583
  • Adultery and doesn't... doesn't say what she did was right.
  • 00:22:08.650 --> 00:22:09.818
  • Say what she did was right. he said, go, and sin no more.
  • 00:22:09.885 --> 00:22:11.286
  • He said, go, and sin no more. he said it was sin, and he told
  • 00:22:11.353 --> 00:22:12.754
  • He said it was sin, and he told her to quit doing it, and yet he
  • 00:22:12.821 --> 00:22:14.523
  • Her to quit doing it, and yet he didn't execute the judgment upon
  • 00:22:14.589 --> 00:22:17.492
  • Didn't execute the judgment upon her that was... prescribed in
  • 00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:19.261
  • Her that was... prescribed in the old testament. how could
  • 00:22:19.327 --> 00:22:20.729
  • The old testament. how could he do that? how did this happen?
  • 00:22:20.796 --> 00:22:24.332
  • He do that? how did this happen? man, understanding this will
  • 00:22:24.399 --> 00:22:26.935
  • Man, understanding this will open up your understanding
  • 00:22:27.002 --> 00:22:28.503
  • Open up your understanding of who god is, and you will
  • 00:22:28.570 --> 00:22:31.540
  • Of who god is, and you will learn to appreciate him and
  • 00:22:31.606 --> 00:22:33.208
  • Learn to appreciate him and love him so much that
  • 00:22:33.275 --> 00:22:34.409
  • Love him so much that instead of running from
  • 00:22:34.476 --> 00:22:35.911
  • Instead of running from him when you do something
  • 00:22:35.977 --> 00:22:37.779
  • Him when you do something wrong, you'll run to him. if
  • 00:22:37.846 --> 00:22:39.881
  • Wrong, you'll run to him. if adam and eve would've really
  • 00:22:39.948 --> 00:22:41.416
  • Adam and eve would've really understood the true nature and
  • 00:22:41.483 --> 00:22:43.518
  • Understood the true nature and character of god, when they
  • 00:22:43.585 --> 00:22:45.520
  • Character of god, when they sinned, they would've run to
  • 00:22:45.587 --> 00:22:47.289
  • Sinned, they would've run to god, instead of trying to make
  • 00:22:47.355 --> 00:22:49.224
  • God, instead of trying to make fig leaves and cover their
  • 00:22:49.291 --> 00:22:51.126
  • Fig leaves and cover their nakedness. man, god covered them
  • 00:22:51.193 --> 00:22:53.361
  • Nakedness. man, god covered them so much more. he was... they
  • 00:22:53.428 --> 00:22:55.197
  • So much more. he was... they would've run to god knowing that
  • 00:22:55.263 --> 00:22:57.098
  • Would've run to god knowing that he loved them, and he was the
  • 00:22:57.165 --> 00:22:59.201
  • He loved them, and he was the lamb slain from the foundation
  • 00:22:59.267 --> 00:23:01.169
  • Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. he knew that they
  • 00:23:01.236 --> 00:23:02.471
  • Of the world. he knew that they were going to someday reject
  • 00:23:02.537 --> 00:23:03.805
  • Were going to someday reject him, and he had already made
  • 00:23:03.872 --> 00:23:05.440
  • Him, and he had already made the provision before they
  • 00:23:05.507 --> 00:23:06.775
  • The provision before they even had the sin.
