>> welcome to our tuesday's
00:00:41.086 --> 00:00:42.154
Broadcast of the gospel truth.
00:00:42.154 --> 00:00:44.456
Today i'm continuing a series
00:00:44.456 --> 00:00:46.125
That i started over a week ago
00:00:46.125 --> 00:00:47.726
Talking about the true nature of
00:00:47.726 --> 00:00:49.895
God. this is something that i
00:00:49.895 --> 00:00:51.997
Started teaching on over 45
00:00:51.997 --> 00:00:54.666
Years ago. this is one of the
00:00:54.666 --> 00:00:56.068
Very first things. it's like i
00:00:56.068 --> 00:00:58.337
Had these different dots over
00:00:58.337 --> 00:01:00.205
Here, but i couldn't connect
00:01:00.205 --> 00:01:01.440
Them. and this is the thing that
00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:03.509
Helped me connect the dots and
00:01:03.509 --> 00:01:05.711
Begin to look at some things
00:01:05.711 --> 00:01:07.279
That appeared to me to be
00:01:07.279 --> 00:01:09.181
Contradictions in the word of
00:01:09.248 --> 00:01:10.782
Contradictions in the word of god. and i began to understand
00:01:10.849 --> 00:01:12.618
God. and i began to understand why god did things the way he
00:01:12.684 --> 00:01:14.686
Why god did things the way he did under the old covenant
00:01:14.753 --> 00:01:16.488
Did under the old covenant versus the way that he does them
00:01:16.555 --> 00:01:18.056
Versus the way that he does them under the new covenant. and i
00:01:18.123 --> 00:01:19.691
Under the new covenant. and i came to realize that god's not
00:01:19.758 --> 00:01:21.960
Came to realize that god's not schizophrenic. he hasn't
00:01:22.027 --> 00:01:23.162
Schizophrenic. he hasn't changed. it was a different way
00:01:23.228 --> 00:01:26.165
Changed. it was a different way of dealing with things. you
00:01:26.231 --> 00:01:28.000
Of dealing with things. you know, let me use this example.
00:01:28.066 --> 00:01:29.401
Know, let me use this example. that when i was a kid, i grew up
00:01:29.468 --> 00:01:32.137
That when i was a kid, i grew up in arlington, texas, and we
00:01:32.204 --> 00:01:34.940
In arlington, texas, and we had... i was in town, and we
00:01:35.007 --> 00:01:37.342
Had... i was in town, and we has... had a busy city street
00:01:37.409 --> 00:01:39.244
Has... had a busy city street out in front of us. and so when
00:01:39.311 --> 00:01:40.879
Out in front of us. and so when i was a kid, my dad, he...
00:01:40.946 --> 00:01:43.715
I was a kid, my dad, he... anyway, it's a long story but my
00:01:43.782 --> 00:01:45.284
Anyway, it's a long story but my mother is the one that pretty
00:01:45.350 --> 00:01:46.919
Mother is the one that pretty much raising me. my dad actually
00:01:46.985 --> 00:01:48.420
Much raising me. my dad actually died when i was 2 years old, was
00:01:48.487 --> 00:01:50.522
Died when i was 2 years old, was raised from the dead, but he was
00:01:50.589 --> 00:01:52.157
Raised from the dead, but he was invalid... or not invalid, but
00:01:52.224 --> 00:01:54.426
Invalid... or not invalid, but he was sickly, and then he died
00:01:54.493 --> 00:01:57.696
He was sickly, and then he died again when he... when i was 12,
00:01:57.763 --> 00:01:59.932
Again when he... when i was 12, and he didn't come back to life
00:01:59.998 --> 00:02:01.433
And he didn't come back to life that time. and so anyway, my
00:02:01.500 --> 00:02:03.202
That time. and so anyway, my mother was the one who did most
00:02:03.268 --> 00:02:04.703
Mother was the one who did most of the discipline. and my
00:02:04.770 --> 00:02:05.771
Of the discipline. and my mother, she grilled into me,
00:02:05.837 --> 00:02:08.574
Mother, she grilled into me, don't you ever cross that street
00:02:08.640 --> 00:02:11.777
Don't you ever cross that street without looking both ways before
00:02:11.843 --> 00:02:14.112
Without looking both ways before you cross that street. and did
00:02:14.179 --> 00:02:15.948
You cross that street. and did you know in the beginning, the
00:02:16.014 --> 00:02:17.983
You know in the beginning, the reason i did that was because
00:02:18.050 --> 00:02:20.719
Reason i did that was because she would whoop me. she would
00:02:20.786 --> 00:02:22.588
She would whoop me. she would give me a whipping if i didn't
00:02:22.654 --> 00:02:24.223
Give me a whipping if i didn't look both ways before i crossed
00:02:24.289 --> 00:02:26.058
Look both ways before i crossed the street. we would be playing
00:02:26.124 --> 00:02:27.359
The street. we would be playing ball and if the ball went out
00:02:27.426 --> 00:02:28.827
Ball and if the ball went out into the street or something, i
00:02:28.894 --> 00:02:30.462
Into the street or something, i guarantee you, she grilled it
00:02:30.529 --> 00:02:32.364
Guarantee you, she grilled it into me, and i got a lot of
00:02:32.431 --> 00:02:33.899
Into me, and i got a lot of spankings over that. and so, my
00:02:33.966 --> 00:02:36.301
Spankings over that. and so, my point in saying this is that in
00:02:36.368 --> 00:02:38.637
Point in saying this is that in the beginning i looked both ways
00:02:38.704 --> 00:02:41.506
The beginning i looked both ways before i crossed the street
00:02:41.573 --> 00:02:43.308
Before i crossed the street because i was afraid of getting
00:02:43.375 --> 00:02:45.143
Because i was afraid of getting a spanking. but did you know
00:02:45.210 --> 00:02:46.745
A spanking. but did you know that the real reason for looking
00:02:46.812 --> 00:02:48.714
That the real reason for looking both ways isn't so that you'll
00:02:48.780 --> 00:02:50.249
Both ways isn't so that you'll get a... not get a spanking. the
00:02:50.315 --> 00:02:52.217
Get a... not get a spanking. the real reason is so you won't get
00:02:52.284 --> 00:02:53.652
Real reason is so you won't get hit by a car or by a truck. but
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:56.555
Hit by a car or by a truck. but there was a time that i didn't
00:02:56.622 --> 00:02:58.090
There was a time that i didn't understand that. and i just did
00:02:58.156 --> 00:03:00.859
Understand that. and i just did what was the right thing because
00:03:00.926 --> 00:03:02.694
What was the right thing because of fear of my mother punishing
00:03:02.761 --> 00:03:05.364
Of fear of my mother punishing me. but as i grew up, you know,
00:03:05.430 --> 00:03:08.300
Me. but as i grew up, you know, my mother, she was 96 when she
00:03:08.367 --> 00:03:10.402
My mother, she was 96 when she passed, and she got frail the
00:03:10.469 --> 00:03:13.238
Passed, and she got frail the last little bit, and i guarantee
00:03:13.305 --> 00:03:14.740
Last little bit, and i guarantee you when she was 96 and i
00:03:14.806 --> 00:03:17.709
You when she was 96 and i would've been in my 60s at that
00:03:17.776 --> 00:03:19.544
Would've been in my 60s at that time, i... i still, every
00:03:19.611 --> 00:03:22.547
Time, i... i still, every time... i just did this the
00:03:22.614 --> 00:03:23.915
Time... i just did this the other day. i walked across a
00:03:23.982 --> 00:03:25.817
Other day. i walked across a street, and i probably looked
00:03:25.884 --> 00:03:27.519
Street, and i probably looked two or three times both ways
00:03:27.586 --> 00:03:29.988
Two or three times both ways before i crossed that street,
00:03:30.055 --> 00:03:31.223
Before i crossed that street, because she just drilled it into
00:03:31.290 --> 00:03:33.191
Because she just drilled it into me. and to this day, i will
00:03:33.258 --> 00:03:35.027
Me. and to this day, i will still do that. but when my
00:03:35.093 --> 00:03:37.362
Still do that. but when my mother was 96, i guarantee
00:03:37.429 --> 00:03:39.398
Mother was 96, i guarantee you... i didn't look both ways
00:03:39.464 --> 00:03:41.500
You... i didn't look both ways because i was afraid of my
00:03:41.566 --> 00:03:42.534
Because i was afraid of my mother giving me a spanking. if
00:03:42.601 --> 00:03:44.503
Mother giving me a spanking. if worse came to worse i could've
00:03:44.569 --> 00:03:45.704
Worse came to worse i could've taken her. praise god. you know,
00:03:45.771 --> 00:03:48.674
Taken her. praise god. you know, i did it because it was the
00:03:48.740 --> 00:03:50.075
I did it because it was the right thing. but in the
00:03:50.142 --> 00:03:51.176
Right thing. but in the beginning, i started doing it
00:03:51.243 --> 00:03:52.911
Beginning, i started doing it because i was fear of
00:03:52.978 --> 00:03:53.879
Because i was fear of punishment. well, this is the
00:03:53.945 --> 00:03:55.247
Punishment. well, this is the way that the law was. when
00:03:55.314 --> 00:03:57.983
Way that the law was. when adam and eve sinned, when sin
00:03:58.050 --> 00:04:00.052
Adam and eve sinned, when sin entered into the human race,
00:04:00.118 --> 00:04:01.820
Entered into the human race, god did not want to vent his
00:04:01.887 --> 00:04:04.489
God did not want to vent his wrath on us. he had already,
00:04:04.556 --> 00:04:06.925
It says in the book of
00:04:06.992 --> 00:04:07.859
It says in the book of revelations, that jesus is
00:04:07.926 --> 00:04:09.695
Revelations, that jesus is the lamb slain from the
00:04:09.761 --> 00:04:11.663
The lamb slain from the foundation of the world. now
00:04:11.730 --> 00:04:15.200
Foundation of the world. now that's really hard to grasp,
00:04:15.267 --> 00:04:17.936
But god knew that we were going
00:04:18.003 --> 00:04:19.938
But god knew that we were going to sin. and so even before he
00:04:20.005 --> 00:04:22.507
To sin. and so even before he created mankind, before he
00:04:22.574 --> 00:04:24.810
Created mankind, before he formed the world, he anticipated
00:04:24.876 --> 00:04:27.979
Formed the world, he anticipated what was going to happen, and he
00:04:28.046 --> 00:04:29.748
What was going to happen, and he had already made the decision to
00:04:29.815 --> 00:04:31.717
Had already made the decision to become a man and to bear our
00:04:31.783 --> 00:04:33.685
Become a man and to bear our sins and redeem us back unto
00:04:33.752 --> 00:04:36.054
Sins and redeem us back unto himself. and so, god had that
00:04:36.121 --> 00:04:39.091
Himself. and so, god had that plan and he did not want to vent
00:04:39.157 --> 00:04:42.127
Plan and he did not want to vent his wrath against our sin. if
00:04:42.194 --> 00:04:44.796
His wrath against our sin. if he... if he did, he could've
00:04:44.863 --> 00:04:46.431
He... if he did, he could've vented it on adam and eve. but
00:04:46.498 --> 00:04:48.567
Vented it on adam and eve. but instead he drove them out of the
00:04:48.633 --> 00:04:50.035
Instead he drove them out of the garden not out of wrath and
00:04:50.102 --> 00:04:51.503
Garden not out of wrath and rejection, but out of mercy,
00:04:51.570 --> 00:04:53.705
Rejection, but out of mercy, trying to protect them so that
00:04:53.772 --> 00:04:55.140
Trying to protect them so that they wouldn't live forever in
00:04:55.207 --> 00:04:56.508
They wouldn't live forever in a sinful body, and in this
00:04:56.575 --> 00:04:58.410
A sinful body, and in this sin-ridden world there's
00:04:58.477 --> 00:04:59.811
Sin-ridden world there's something better planned
00:04:59.878 --> 00:05:01.079
Something better planned for us. and so god wasn't
00:05:01.146 --> 00:05:03.248
For us. and so god wasn't venting his wrath.
00:05:03.315 --> 00:05:04.282
That's what it says in romans,
00:05:04.349 --> 00:05:05.450
That's what it says in romans, chapter 5, verse 13, that until
00:05:05.517 --> 00:05:07.619
Chapter 5, verse 13, that until the law, that's talking about
00:05:07.686 --> 00:05:09.321
The law, that's talking about during the time of moses
00:05:09.388 --> 00:05:10.756
During the time of moses when the law was given,
00:05:10.822 --> 00:05:12.124
When the law was given, sin was in the world, but
00:05:12.190 --> 00:05:13.425
Sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when
00:05:13.492 --> 00:05:14.726
Sin is not imputed when there is no law. god was
00:05:14.793 --> 00:05:16.795
Being merciful to people's sins
00:05:16.862 --> 00:05:18.830
Being merciful to people's sins and unrighteousness until the
00:05:18.897 --> 00:05:21.433
And unrighteousness until the law came. but people were taking
00:05:21.500 --> 00:05:24.035
Law came. but people were taking god's lack of punishment as
00:05:24.102 --> 00:05:26.271
God's lack of punishment as approval, or at the very least,
00:05:26.338 --> 00:05:28.340
Approval, or at the very least, indifference towards sin, and
00:05:28.407 --> 00:05:30.575
Indifference towards sin, and they didn't see the deadliness
00:05:30.642 --> 00:05:32.043
They didn't see the deadliness of sin, and so they just opened
00:05:32.110 --> 00:05:34.112
Of sin, and so they just opened up and started living in sin.
00:05:34.179 --> 00:05:36.214
Up and started living in sin. and things got so bad that
00:05:36.281 --> 00:05:38.016
And things got so bad that during the time of noah, god had
00:05:38.083 --> 00:05:39.985
During the time of noah, god had to literally wipe out all of the
00:05:40.051 --> 00:05:42.320
To literally wipe out all of the animal and human life on the
00:05:42.387 --> 00:05:44.656
Animal and human life on the planet except for eight people,
00:05:44.723 --> 00:05:46.525
Planet except for eight people, because if he hadn't, there
00:05:46.591 --> 00:05:47.626
Because if he hadn't, there wouldn't have been a virgin left
00:05:47.692 --> 00:05:49.561
Wouldn't have been a virgin left for jesus to be born through.
00:05:49.628 --> 00:05:51.430
For jesus to be born through. now i know some of those things
00:05:51.496 --> 00:05:52.597
Now i know some of those things that i'm saying are repetition
00:05:52.664 --> 00:05:54.633
That i'm saying are repetition for people that watch every day,
00:05:54.699 --> 00:05:56.101
For people that watch every day, but not everybody watches every
00:05:56.168 --> 00:05:57.769
But not everybody watches every day, and you've got to
00:05:57.836 --> 00:05:58.537
Day, and you've got to understand the context. he was
00:05:58.603 --> 00:06:00.539
Understand the context. he was wanting to be merciful, but
00:06:00.605 --> 00:06:02.774
Wanting to be merciful, but people weren't accepting his
00:06:02.841 --> 00:06:04.943
People weren't accepting his mercy. they were using it as an
00:06:05.010 --> 00:06:06.845
Mercy. they were using it as an opportunity to go live in sin.
00:06:06.912 --> 00:06:09.581
Opportunity to go live in sin. and so, he finally gave a law
00:06:09.648 --> 00:06:12.818
And so, he finally gave a law with punishment for sin, strict
00:06:12.884 --> 00:06:16.021
With punishment for sin, strict punishment for sin. and it's
00:06:16.087 --> 00:06:17.823
Punishment for sin. and it's like i was giving that example
00:06:17.889 --> 00:06:19.658
Like i was giving that example about crossing the street. my
00:06:19.724 --> 00:06:21.560
About crossing the street. my mother used to whip me if she
00:06:21.626 --> 00:06:23.361
Mother used to whip me if she ever found me crossing the
00:06:23.428 --> 00:06:25.096
Ever found me crossing the street, going out into the
00:06:25.163 --> 00:06:26.431
Street, going out into the street to get a ball or
00:06:26.498 --> 00:06:27.732
Street to get a ball or something, and if i didn't look
00:06:27.799 --> 00:06:29.634
Something, and if i didn't look both ways, she would whip me.
00:06:29.701 --> 00:06:31.136
Both ways, she would whip me. and in the beginning, i did the
00:06:31.203 --> 00:06:33.705
And in the beginning, i did the right thing because of fear of
00:06:33.772 --> 00:06:35.207
Right thing because of fear of punishment. but that was only
00:06:35.273 --> 00:06:37.042
Punishment. but that was only temporary because i couldn't
00:06:37.108 --> 00:06:38.310
Temporary because i couldn't understand. it didn't dawn on me
00:06:38.376 --> 00:06:41.179
Understand. it didn't dawn on me as a young kid about the danger
00:06:41.246 --> 00:06:43.315
As a young kid about the danger of being hit by a car. i was
00:06:43.381 --> 00:06:44.950
Of being hit by a car. i was more afraid of my mother than i
00:06:45.016 --> 00:06:46.485
More afraid of my mother than i was a car. likewise, when god
00:06:46.551 --> 00:06:50.789
Was a car. likewise, when god gave the law, the reason he
00:06:50.856 --> 00:06:52.991
Gave the law, the reason he gave it to... was to restrain
00:06:53.058 --> 00:06:55.660
Gave it to... was to restrain the amount of sin. let me
00:06:55.727 --> 00:06:57.896
Turn over and read this
00:06:57.963 --> 00:06:59.064
Turn over and read this verse by mercy and truth
00:06:59.130 --> 00:07:00.932
Verse by mercy and truth iniquity is purged, but by
00:07:00.999 --> 00:07:02.434
Iniquity is purged, but by the fear of the lord men
00:07:02.501 --> 00:07:04.870
The fear of the lord men depart from evil. so god
00:07:04.936 --> 00:07:07.005
Gave a standard and started
00:07:07.072 --> 00:07:09.074
Gave a standard and started punishing it and it caused
00:07:09.140 --> 00:07:10.642
Punishing it and it caused people to depart from evil.
00:07:10.709 --> 00:07:13.111
There's another verse,
00:07:13.178 --> 00:07:14.446
There's another verse, psalms, chapter 36,
00:07:14.513 --> 00:07:15.914
Psalms, chapter 36, verse 1, that says, the
00:07:15.981 --> 00:07:17.048
Verse 1, that says, the transgression of the wicked
00:07:17.115 --> 00:07:18.416
Transgression of the wicked says that there is no fear
00:07:18.483 --> 00:07:20.485
Says that there is no fear of god before their eyes.
00:07:20.552 --> 00:07:23.154
And the fear of the lord will
00:07:23.221 --> 00:07:24.756
And the fear of the lord will cause us to depart from evil.
00:07:24.823 --> 00:07:27.459
Cause us to depart from evil. the very fact that people are
00:07:27.526 --> 00:07:28.760
The very fact that people are out living in sin the way that
00:07:28.827 --> 00:07:30.228
Out living in sin the way that they are today is because they
00:07:30.295 --> 00:07:31.696
They are today is because they don't fear god. and so, when god
00:07:31.763 --> 00:07:35.333
Don't fear god. and so, when god gave the law and then started
00:07:35.400 --> 00:07:36.868
Gave the law and then started enforcing it and punishing
00:07:36.935 --> 00:07:38.470
Enforcing it and punishing people, picking up... a person
00:07:38.537 --> 00:07:40.138
People, picking up... a person who picked up sticks, god said
00:07:40.205 --> 00:07:42.340
Who picked up sticks, god said stone him to death. that was a
00:07:42.407 --> 00:07:44.175
Stone him to death. that was a harsh punishment because they
00:07:44.242 --> 00:07:46.211
Harsh punishment because they broke the sabbath law. god
00:07:46.278 --> 00:07:49.447
Broke the sabbath law. god didn't want to start that way or
00:07:49.514 --> 00:07:51.383
Didn't want to start that way or he would've done it with adam
00:07:51.449 --> 00:07:52.651
He would've done it with adam and eve. he waited 2000 years
00:07:52.717 --> 00:07:54.786
And eve. he waited 2000 years before the law came, but people
00:07:54.853 --> 00:07:56.454
Before the law came, but people were taking his lack of
00:07:56.521 --> 00:07:57.689
Were taking his lack of punishment as approval, or at
00:07:57.756 --> 00:07:59.724
Punishment as approval, or at the least, indifference, and
00:07:59.791 --> 00:08:01.259
The least, indifference, and because of it, sin was just
00:08:01.326 --> 00:08:02.727
Because of it, sin was just rampant and it was increasing at
00:08:02.794 --> 00:08:05.397
Rampant and it was increasing at a tremendous rate, so god gave
00:08:05.463 --> 00:08:07.332
A tremendous rate, so god gave the law to put fear in people
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:10.402
The law to put fear in people and to limit the amount of sin.
00:08:10.468 --> 00:08:12.370
But did you know that now that
00:08:13.972 --> 00:08:15.140
But did you know that now that we've come to jesus and now that
00:08:15.206 --> 00:08:17.008
We've come to jesus and now that jesus has made an atonement for
00:08:17.075 --> 00:08:19.210
Jesus has made an atonement for our sin, and now that the wrath
00:08:19.277 --> 00:08:21.646
Our sin, and now that the wrath and the justice and the holiness
00:08:21.713 --> 00:08:23.648
And the justice and the holiness of god has been satisfied, we
00:08:23.715 --> 00:08:26.651
Of god has been satisfied, we should not be serving god out of
00:08:26.718 --> 00:08:28.954
Should not be serving god out of fear the way that people were
00:08:29.020 --> 00:08:30.956
Fear the way that people were under the old covenant. now
00:08:31.022 --> 00:08:32.424
Under the old covenant. now there still is a fear of god in
00:08:32.490 --> 00:08:34.292
There still is a fear of god in the new covenant and it talks
00:08:34.359 --> 00:08:35.627
The new covenant and it talks about that in ephesians, chapter
00:08:35.694 --> 00:08:37.395
About that in ephesians, chapter 5, and other places, but it's
00:08:37.462 --> 00:08:39.164
5, and other places, but it's more of a reverence, a love, a
00:08:39.230 --> 00:08:42.200
More of a reverence, a love, a honoring of god. it's not terror
00:08:42.267 --> 00:08:45.003
Honoring of god. it's not terror of punishment. my punishment was
00:08:45.070 --> 00:08:47.305
Of punishment. my punishment was placed upon jesus. god is not
00:08:47.372 --> 00:08:49.641
Placed upon jesus. god is not going to punish me for my sins,
00:08:49.708 --> 00:08:51.376
Going to punish me for my sins, not ever. and i know that that
00:08:51.443 --> 00:08:53.878
Not ever. and i know that that is an offensive statement to so
00:08:53.945 --> 00:08:55.380
Is an offensive statement to so many people, and it's because
00:08:55.447 --> 00:08:57.082
Many people, and it's because they... they are relating to the
00:08:57.148 --> 00:08:59.384
They... they are relating to the way that god acted under the old
00:08:59.451 --> 00:09:01.319
Way that god acted under the old covenant, and they
00:09:01.386 --> 00:09:02.120
Covenant, and they misinterpreted it, and they...
00:09:02.187 --> 00:09:03.555
Misinterpreted it, and they... they just think that god is
00:09:03.622 --> 00:09:04.889
They just think that god is angry at your sin, and that the
00:09:04.956 --> 00:09:06.958
Angry at your sin, and that the moment you step out of line,
00:09:07.025 --> 00:09:08.426
Moment you step out of line, god's going to slap you down,
00:09:08.493 --> 00:09:10.695
God's going to slap you down, knock you down. that is not
00:09:10.762 --> 00:09:12.664
Knock you down. that is not true. god placed all of his
00:09:12.731 --> 00:09:14.799
True. god placed all of his wrath upon jesus so that you
00:09:14.866 --> 00:09:17.969
Wrath upon jesus so that you don't have to suffer that wrath
00:09:18.036 --> 00:09:20.605
Don't have to suffer that wrath anymore. i may be getting ahead
00:09:20.672 --> 00:09:24.209
Anymore. i may be getting ahead of myself a little bit, but let
00:09:24.275 --> 00:09:25.543
Of myself a little bit, but let me use a verse out of john,
00:09:25.610 --> 00:09:27.212
Me use a verse out of john, chapter 12. jesus is the one
00:09:27.278 --> 00:09:30.048
Chapter 12. jesus is the one who said this, and he had just
00:09:30.115 --> 00:09:31.783
Who said this, and he had just been talking about... to his
00:09:31.850 --> 00:09:33.585
Been talking about... to his father. he prayed out loud
00:09:33.652 --> 00:09:35.053
Father. he prayed out loud and asked god to glorify him,
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:36.921
And the lord said, i have
00:09:36.988 --> 00:09:38.356
And the lord said, i have glorified, and i will glorify
00:09:38.423 --> 00:09:41.126
Glorified, and i will glorify you once again. and he spoke in
00:09:41.192 --> 00:09:43.561
You once again. and he spoke in an audible voice. people heard
00:09:43.628 --> 00:09:45.230
An audible voice. people heard it. and jesus said this in john,
00:09:45.296 --> 00:09:47.866
It. and jesus said this in john, chapter 12, verse 30, jesus
00:09:47.932 --> 00:09:49.734
Chapter 12, verse 30, jesus answered and said, this voice
00:09:49.801 --> 00:09:51.002
Answered and said, this voice came not because of me, but
00:09:51.069 --> 00:09:53.405
Came not because of me, but for your sakes. now is the
00:09:53.471 --> 00:09:55.674
For your sakes. now is the judgment of this world: now
00:09:55.740 --> 00:09:57.409
Judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world
00:09:57.475 --> 00:09:58.777
Shall the prince of this world be cast out. and i, if i be
00:09:58.843 --> 00:10:01.479
Be cast out. and i, if i be lifted up from the earth, will
00:10:01.546 --> 00:10:03.081
Lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. this he
00:10:03.148 --> 00:10:05.984
Draw all men unto me. this he said, signifying what death he
00:10:06.051 --> 00:10:08.286
Said, signifying what death he should die. did you know this
00:10:08.353 --> 00:10:10.055
32nd verse, most people just
00:10:10.121 --> 00:10:12.290
32nd verse, most people just take this that if we preach
00:10:12.357 --> 00:10:13.858
Take this that if we preach jesus properly and if we truly
00:10:13.925 --> 00:10:15.760
Jesus properly and if we truly glorify him the way we're
00:10:15.827 --> 00:10:16.995
Glorify him the way we're supposed to, everybody will be
00:10:17.062 --> 00:10:18.997
Supposed to, everybody will be drawn unto him. that's not what
00:10:19.064 --> 00:10:21.232
Drawn unto him. that's not what this is talking about. let me
00:10:21.299 --> 00:10:22.901
This is talking about. let me point out that in the king
00:10:22.967 --> 00:10:24.202
Point out that in the king james, and this is one of the
00:10:24.269 --> 00:10:25.303
James, and this is one of the reasons that i like the king
00:10:25.370 --> 00:10:27.138
Reasons that i like the king james. i think it's the most
00:10:27.205 --> 00:10:28.406
James. i think it's the most accurate. there are words in
00:10:28.473 --> 00:10:30.308
Accurate. there are words in here that are archaic, and we
00:10:30.375 --> 00:10:31.609
Here that are archaic, and we don't use anymore but it's not
00:10:31.676 --> 00:10:33.211
Don't use anymore but it's not hard for me to figure out that
00:10:33.278 --> 00:10:34.612
Hard for me to figure out that thee means you. i... i'm smart
00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:38.149
Thee means you. i... i'm smart enough to figure that out.
00:10:38.216 --> 00:10:39.317
Enough to figure that out. and... and so anyway, i like it
00:10:39.384 --> 00:10:42.020
And... and so anyway, i like it because i believe it's the most
00:10:42.087 --> 00:10:43.121
Because i believe it's the most accurate, but also, they
00:10:43.188 --> 00:10:44.756
Accurate, but also, they italicized words if it wasn't in
00:10:44.823 --> 00:10:48.193
Italicized words if it wasn't in the original language. did you
00:10:48.259 --> 00:10:49.928
The original language. did you know when you're translating
00:10:49.994 --> 00:10:50.962
Know when you're translating from one language to another
00:10:51.029 --> 00:10:52.363
From one language to another language, it's not always word
00:10:52.430 --> 00:10:54.466
Language, it's not always word for word translation. sometimes
00:10:54.532 --> 00:10:56.868
For word translation. sometimes they are concepts, there are
00:10:56.935 --> 00:10:57.969
They are concepts, there are things that aren't clearly
00:10:58.036 --> 00:10:59.838
Things that aren't clearly stated, and you have to use a
00:10:59.904 --> 00:11:01.172
Stated, and you have to use a little bit of interpretation.
00:11:01.239 --> 00:11:02.774
Little bit of interpretation. but the king james translators
00:11:02.841 --> 00:11:05.443
But the king james translators were honest enough that when
00:11:05.510 --> 00:11:07.545
Were honest enough that when they came and they inserted
00:11:07.612 --> 00:11:09.314
They came and they inserted something that wasn't in
00:11:09.380 --> 00:11:10.482
Something that wasn't in the original text, they would
00:11:10.548 --> 00:11:11.950
The original text, they would tell you that and show you
00:11:12.016 --> 00:11:13.752
Tell you that and show you that this was inserted.
00:11:13.818 --> 00:11:15.253
So this word men in john 12:32,
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:19.924
So this word men in john 12:32, is inserted. it actually says,
00:11:19.991 --> 00:11:22.360
Is inserted. it actually says, and i, if i be lifted up, from
00:11:22.427 --> 00:11:24.462
And i, if i be lifted up, from the earth will draw all unto me.
00:11:24.529 --> 00:11:27.899
The earth will draw all unto me. it didn't say all what., and
00:11:27.966 --> 00:11:30.135
It didn't say all what., and they just assumed it was men.
00:11:30.201 --> 00:11:31.603
They just assumed it was men. but if you look at it in
00:11:31.669 --> 00:11:32.504
But if you look at it in context, the 31st verse,
00:11:32.570 --> 00:11:34.172
Context, the 31st verse, says, now is the judgment of
00:11:34.239 --> 00:11:37.008
Says, now is the judgment of this world. and he wasn't
00:11:37.075 --> 00:11:38.910
Talking about the judgment where
00:11:38.977 --> 00:11:40.378
Talking about the judgment where god was going to judge the
00:11:40.445 --> 00:11:42.147
God was going to judge the people out there, but he was
00:11:42.213 --> 00:11:43.681
People out there, but he was going to bear the judgment of
00:11:43.748 --> 00:11:45.650
Going to bear the judgment of this world. all of the judgment
00:11:45.717 --> 00:11:48.119
This world. all of the judgment of god against all of the sin
00:11:48.186 --> 00:11:50.188
Of god against all of the sin of mankind was going to come
00:11:50.255 --> 00:11:52.056
Of mankind was going to come upon jesus. he was going to
00:11:52.123 --> 00:11:53.658
Upon jesus. he was going to bear the judgment of this
00:11:53.725 --> 00:11:55.026
Bear the judgment of this world. and you can tell
00:11:55.093 --> 00:11:56.628
World. and you can tell that that's what it's talking
00:11:56.694 --> 00:11:57.562
That that's what it's talking about, judgment, is because
00:11:57.629 --> 00:11:58.897
In the next verse, verse 33,
00:11:58.963 --> 00:12:00.465
Right after this, it says, this
00:12:01.699 --> 00:12:03.034
Right after this, it says, this he said signifying what death
00:12:03.101 --> 00:12:04.769
He said signifying what death he should die. he wasn't
00:12:04.836 --> 00:12:06.304
Talking about that if he's just
00:12:06.371 --> 00:12:07.639
Talking about that if he's just preached properly and presented
00:12:07.705 --> 00:12:09.374
Preached properly and presented properly, everybody will receive
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.142
Properly, everybody will receive him. but rather he was saying
00:12:11.209 --> 00:12:13.011
Him. but rather he was saying that when he bore the judgment
00:12:13.077 --> 00:12:14.946
That when he bore the judgment of god, he was like a lightning
00:12:15.013 --> 00:12:17.048
Of god, he was like a lightning rod, and all of god's wrath
00:12:17.115 --> 00:12:19.784
Rod, and all of god's wrath came and hit him and a...
00:12:19.851 --> 00:12:23.154
Came and hit him and a... avoided the human race. all
00:12:23.221 --> 00:12:25.223
Avoided the human race. all of the wrath of god came
00:12:25.290 --> 00:12:26.724
Of the wrath of god came upon him, and he was speaking
00:12:26.791 --> 00:12:28.960
Upon him, and he was speaking of the death he would die.
00:12:29.027 --> 00:12:31.029
So what this is saying actually
00:12:31.095 --> 00:12:32.630
So what this is saying actually is, that i, if i be lifted up
00:12:32.697 --> 00:12:34.532
Is, that i, if i be lifted up from the earth, will draw all...
00:12:34.599 --> 00:12:37.101
From the earth, will draw all... and i believe by the context,
00:12:37.168 --> 00:12:38.503
And i believe by the context, all judgment unto me.
00:12:38.570 --> 00:12:41.973
All of god's wrath against the
00:12:42.040 --> 00:12:44.909
All of god's wrath against the sin of the entire human race,
00:12:44.976 --> 00:12:47.478
Sin of the entire human race, those who would accept jesus and
00:12:47.545 --> 00:12:49.647
Those who would accept jesus and those who would reject him. all
00:12:49.714 --> 00:12:53.918
Those who would reject him. all sin was paid for by jesus.
00:12:53.985 --> 00:12:57.222
First john, chapter 2, verse 2,
00:12:57.288 --> 00:12:58.990
First john, chapter 2, verse 2, says, he is the propitiation...
00:12:59.057 --> 00:13:00.725
Says, he is the propitiation... the word propitiation means
00:13:00.792 --> 00:13:02.093
The word propitiation means atoning sacrifice for our sins:
00:13:02.160 --> 00:13:04.128
Atoning sacrifice for our sins: and not for ours only, but
00:13:04.195 --> 00:13:06.097
And not for ours only, but also for the sins of the
00:13:06.164 --> 00:13:07.232
Also for the sins of the whole world. jesus paid
00:13:07.298 --> 00:13:09.133
For the sins of the people who
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:10.435
For the sins of the people who didn't even accept him. hitler,
00:13:10.501 --> 00:13:12.537
Didn't even accept him. hitler, mussolini, stalin, genghis khan,
00:13:12.604 --> 00:13:15.974
Mussolini, stalin, genghis khan, you go on and name anybody,
00:13:16.040 --> 00:13:17.242
You go on and name anybody, all of the people, rapists,
00:13:17.308 --> 00:13:18.776
All of the people, rapists, murderers, they've had their
00:13:18.843 --> 00:13:20.445
Murderers, they've had their sins paid for. now that doesn't
00:13:20.511 --> 00:13:22.647
Sins paid for. now that doesn't automatically mean anything if
00:13:22.714 --> 00:13:25.250
Automatically mean anything if they don't mix faith with it.
00:13:25.316 --> 00:13:27.552
It says in romans, chapter 5,
00:13:27.619 --> 00:13:29.187
It says in romans, chapter 5, verse 2, that we have access by
00:13:29.254 --> 00:13:31.489
Verse 2, that we have access by faith into this grace wherein
00:13:31.556 --> 00:13:34.492
Faith into this grace wherein we stand. god by grace
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.794
Paid for the sins of the whole
00:13:36.861 --> 00:13:38.329
Paid for the sins of the whole world, but you have to mix faith
00:13:38.396 --> 00:13:40.265
World, but you have to mix faith with it in order to receive it.
00:13:40.331 --> 00:13:42.734
Ephesians, chapter 2, verse 8,
00:13:42.800 --> 00:13:44.669
Ephesians, chapter 2, verse 8, says, for by grace are you
00:13:44.736 --> 00:13:46.638
Says, for by grace are you saved through faith; and
00:13:46.704 --> 00:13:48.306
Saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it's
00:13:48.373 --> 00:13:49.407
That not of yourselves: it's the gift of god. so god's
00:13:49.474 --> 00:13:51.276
Grace provided salvation. he
00:13:51.342 --> 00:13:53.244
Grace provided salvation. he bore all of the judgment of the
00:13:53.311 --> 00:13:55.079
Bore all of the judgment of the whole world came upon him. but
00:13:55.146 --> 00:13:57.916
Whole world came upon him. but that doesn't mean that the whole
00:13:57.982 --> 00:13:59.250
That doesn't mean that the whole world is saved because you have
00:13:59.317 --> 00:14:00.718
World is saved because you have to accept it by faith. if
00:14:00.785 --> 00:14:03.588
To accept it by faith. if there's anybody watching right
00:14:03.655 --> 00:14:04.923
There's anybody watching right now who i've been explaining the
00:14:04.989 --> 00:14:07.225
Now who i've been explaining the gospel, and if you have never
00:14:07.292 --> 00:14:09.327
Gospel, and if you have never accepted it, if you thought that
00:14:09.394 --> 00:14:10.728
Accepted it, if you thought that somehow or another you had to be
00:14:10.795 --> 00:14:11.963
Somehow or another you had to be worthy and you had to earn god's
00:14:12.030 --> 00:14:14.899
Worthy and you had to earn god's favor and so you're trying to
00:14:14.966 --> 00:14:16.367
Favor and so you're trying to quit doing these things and
00:14:16.434 --> 00:14:18.303
Quit doing these things and you're trying to quit doing the
00:14:18.369 --> 00:14:19.604
You're trying to quit doing the bad things, you're trying to do
00:14:19.671 --> 00:14:20.905
Bad things, you're trying to do the good things and you're
00:14:20.972 --> 00:14:21.906
The good things and you're hoping it's enough. if you're
00:14:21.973 --> 00:14:23.908
Hoping it's enough. if you're listening, i just shared with
00:14:23.975 --> 00:14:25.343
Listening, i just shared with you the gospel. jesus bore your
00:14:25.410 --> 00:14:27.779
You the gospel. jesus bore your punishment. you don't have to
00:14:27.845 --> 00:14:29.480
Punishment. you don't have to live holy. you don't have to
00:14:29.547 --> 00:14:30.715
Live holy. you don't have to atone for your own sins. jesus
00:14:30.782 --> 00:14:33.384
Atone for your own sins. jesus bore all of god's wrath. all
00:14:33.451 --> 00:14:36.721
Bore all of god's wrath. all judgment came unto him. and all
00:14:36.788 --> 00:14:39.724
Judgment came unto him. and all you got to do is believe and
00:14:39.791 --> 00:14:41.626
You got to do is believe and receive. if you doubt, you do
00:14:41.693 --> 00:14:44.595
Receive. if you doubt, you do without. but you can humble
00:14:44.662 --> 00:14:47.131
Without. but you can humble yourself and you can receive
00:14:47.198 --> 00:14:48.566
Yourself and you can receive jesus as your savior.
00:14:48.633 --> 00:14:49.767
Romans, chapter 10, verse 9,
00:14:49.834 --> 00:14:51.369
Romans, chapter 10, verse 9, says, if you will confess with
00:14:51.436 --> 00:14:52.904
Says, if you will confess with your mouth the lord jesus, and
00:14:52.971 --> 00:14:55.907
Your mouth the lord jesus, and believe in your heart that god
00:14:55.974 --> 00:14:57.175
Believe in your heart that god raised him from the dead, you
00:14:57.241 --> 00:14:58.576
Raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. for with the
00:14:58.643 --> 00:15:00.178
Shall be saved. for with the heart man believes unto
00:15:00.244 --> 00:15:01.980
Heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the
00:15:02.046 --> 00:15:03.081
Righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto
00:15:03.147 --> 00:15:05.183
Mouth confession is made unto salvation. and it goes on to
00:15:05.249 --> 00:15:07.118
Salvation. and it goes on to say in verse 13, whosoever will
00:15:07.185 --> 00:15:09.587
Say in verse 13, whosoever will call on the name of the lord
00:15:09.654 --> 00:15:10.888
Call on the name of the lord shall be saved. if you're a
00:15:10.955 --> 00:15:13.057
Whosoever, that applies to
00:15:13.124 --> 00:15:14.392
Whosoever, that applies to everybody. you can be saved.
00:15:14.459 --> 00:15:16.394
Everybody. you can be saved. jesus paid it all so that you
00:15:16.461 --> 00:15:18.529
Jesus paid it all so that you can receive it. you know, if
00:15:18.596 --> 00:15:19.998
Can receive it. you know, if there's anybody who's never done
00:15:20.064 --> 00:15:21.499
There's anybody who's never done that and you're listening to me,
00:15:21.566 --> 00:15:23.067
That and you're listening to me, we've got a number on the
00:15:23.134 --> 00:15:24.068
We've got a number on the screen, and you can call. we're
00:15:24.135 --> 00:15:25.403

00:15:27.438 --> 00:15:29.007
Week, and there are people there that can pray with you, and you
00:15:29.073 --> 00:15:30.975
That can pray with you, and you can receive this great
00:15:31.042 --> 00:15:32.377
Can receive this great salvation. and it'll totally,
00:15:32.443 --> 00:15:35.013
Salvation. and it'll totally, totally, totally change your
00:15:35.079 --> 00:15:36.948
Totally, totally change your life. but see, this is what
00:15:37.015 --> 00:15:39.017
Life. but see, this is what jesus did. god wanted to be
00:15:39.083 --> 00:15:41.152
Jesus did. god wanted to be merciful unto people. but they
00:15:41.219 --> 00:15:43.221
Merciful unto people. but they were taking his lack of
00:15:43.287 --> 00:15:44.655
Were taking his lack of punishment as approval or
00:15:44.722 --> 00:15:46.958
Punishment as approval or indifference towards sin, and so
00:15:47.025 --> 00:15:49.093
Indifference towards sin, and so they were just yielding themself
00:15:49.160 --> 00:15:50.795
They were just yielding themself to sin and satan was gaining
00:15:50.862 --> 00:15:52.430
To sin and satan was gaining inroad through that and
00:15:52.497 --> 00:15:53.531
Inroad through that and destroying the human race. and
00:15:53.598 --> 00:15:55.633
Destroying the human race. and so god had to do something to
00:15:55.700 --> 00:15:57.368
So god had to do something to limit this... this
00:15:57.435 --> 00:15:59.303
Limit this... this multiplication of sin in the
00:15:59.370 --> 00:16:01.039
Multiplication of sin in the earth. what did he do? he gave
00:16:01.105 --> 00:16:02.807
Earth. what did he do? he gave the law. and the law put fear of
00:16:02.874 --> 00:16:05.843
The law. and the law put fear of punishment in people, and it
00:16:05.910 --> 00:16:07.912
Punishment in people, and it stopped them from committing as
00:16:07.979 --> 00:16:10.148
Stopped them from committing as much sin. but the sin that they
00:16:10.214 --> 00:16:13.284
Much sin. but the sin that they did commit began to start having
00:16:13.351 --> 00:16:15.353
Did commit began to start having much more dominance over them
00:16:15.420 --> 00:16:17.055
Much more dominance over them because the law brought
00:16:17.121 --> 00:16:18.256
Because the law brought condemnation. and i'm going to
00:16:18.322 --> 00:16:21.259
Condemnation. and i'm going to share some scriptures with you
00:16:21.325 --> 00:16:22.727
Share some scriptures with you that the law strengthened sin.
00:16:22.794 --> 00:16:25.196
That the law strengthened sin. the law made sin come alive. and
00:16:25.263 --> 00:16:29.267
The law made sin come alive. and most people don't understand
00:16:29.333 --> 00:16:30.701
Most people don't understand this. the reason god did that
00:16:30.768 --> 00:16:32.670
This. the reason god did that was to make sin so exceedingly
00:16:32.737 --> 00:16:34.972
Was to make sin so exceedingly sinful is what it says in
00:16:35.039 --> 00:16:36.207
Sinful is what it says in romans, chapter 7, so that we
00:16:36.274 --> 00:16:37.942
Romans, chapter 7, so that we would turn from it and turn away
00:16:38.009 --> 00:16:40.211
Would turn from it and turn away from it. and that was the
00:16:40.278 --> 00:16:42.847
From it. and that was the purpose of the law. the law
00:16:42.914 --> 00:16:44.215
Purpose of the law. the law wasn't given to save you, but it
00:16:44.282 --> 00:16:46.084
Wasn't given to save you, but it was given to show you what a
00:16:46.150 --> 00:16:47.485
Was given to show you what a mess you were in, and it brought
00:16:47.552 --> 00:16:49.353
Mess you were in, and it brought guilt and condemnation. and that
00:16:49.420 --> 00:16:52.824
Guilt and condemnation. and that had a purpose, to show you how
00:16:52.890 --> 00:16:55.093
Had a purpose, to show you how bad we were and how much we
00:16:55.159 --> 00:16:58.162
Bad we were and how much we needed jesus. you know some of
00:16:58.229 --> 00:17:00.598
Needed jesus. you know some of you've have heard my testimony,
00:17:00.665 --> 00:17:01.999
You've have heard my testimony, and i got born again when i was
00:17:02.066 --> 00:17:03.267
And i got born again when i was 8 years old. i've never said a
00:17:03.334 --> 00:17:05.603
8 years old. i've never said a word of profanity. i've never
00:17:05.670 --> 00:17:07.138
Word of profanity. i've never taken a drink of liquor. i've
00:17:07.205 --> 00:17:08.339
Taken a drink of liquor. i've never smoked a cigarette. and
00:17:08.406 --> 00:17:10.074
Never smoked a cigarette. and the reason i lived that way is
00:17:10.141 --> 00:17:11.809
The reason i lived that way is because i was raised under
00:17:11.876 --> 00:17:13.344
Because i was raised under condemnation. i was raised under
00:17:13.411 --> 00:17:14.979
Condemnation. i was raised under the law. and it said that, man,
00:17:15.046 --> 00:17:17.515
The law. and it said that, man, if you do these things, god's
00:17:17.582 --> 00:17:18.983
If you do these things, god's going to reject you, god's going
00:17:19.050 --> 00:17:20.585
Going to reject you, god's going to punish you, god's going to
00:17:20.651 --> 00:17:21.819
To punish you, god's going to get you. i was told that god's
00:17:21.886 --> 00:17:23.588
Get you. i was told that god's the one that killed my dad when
00:17:23.654 --> 00:17:25.223
The one that killed my dad when i was 12 years old. i was told
00:17:25.289 --> 00:17:26.891
I was 12 years old. i was told that god's the one who kills
00:17:26.958 --> 00:17:28.259
That god's the one who kills people and does terrible things
00:17:28.326 --> 00:17:30.294
People and does terrible things to people. and because of it, i
00:17:30.361 --> 00:17:31.996
To people. and because of it, i had a fear of god. and you know
00:17:32.063 --> 00:17:35.099
Had a fear of god. and you know when i was a kid, like i said,
00:17:35.166 --> 00:17:37.001
When i was a kid, like i said, i've never used profanity, but i
00:17:37.068 --> 00:17:39.203
I've never used profanity, but i would go into a public restroom
00:17:39.270 --> 00:17:40.838
Would go into a public restroom and i would see things, you
00:17:40.905 --> 00:17:42.173
And i would see things, you know, scribbled on the wall or
00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:44.509
Know, scribbled on the wall or on the mirror or things,
00:17:44.575 --> 00:17:46.244
On the mirror or things, profanity, and i would be
00:17:46.310 --> 00:17:48.946
Profanity, and i would be condemned for a few days or a
00:17:49.013 --> 00:17:52.150
Condemned for a few days or a week over something that i
00:17:52.216 --> 00:17:53.684
Week over something that i didn't even do. i just saw it.
00:17:53.751 --> 00:17:55.353
Didn't even do. i just saw it. just to have that even... that
00:17:55.419 --> 00:17:57.455
Just to have that even... that thought come to me, i would feel
00:17:57.522 --> 00:18:00.024
Thought come to me, i would feel terrible. i used to have a dream
00:18:00.091 --> 00:18:01.926
Terrible. i used to have a dream when i was a kid, and i did this
00:18:01.993 --> 00:18:03.161
When i was a kid, and i did this probably for 10 years, a
00:18:03.227 --> 00:18:04.462
Probably for 10 years, a reoccurring dream that i would
00:18:04.529 --> 00:18:05.730
Reoccurring dream that i would have once every six months or
00:18:05.796 --> 00:18:07.198
Have once every six months or something, and i would dream
00:18:07.265 --> 00:18:09.000
Something, and i would dream that i smoked a cigarette, and
00:18:09.066 --> 00:18:11.402
That i smoked a cigarette, and that i got caught and turned
00:18:11.469 --> 00:18:12.970
That i got caught and turned into the police. they turned me
00:18:13.037 --> 00:18:14.472
Into the police. they turned me over to my mother, and like i
00:18:14.539 --> 00:18:16.908
Over to my mother, and like i was saying earlier, my mother
00:18:16.974 --> 00:18:18.376
Was saying earlier, my mother was the authority figure in my
00:18:18.442 --> 00:18:19.944
Was the authority figure in my life. boy, she whipped me and
00:18:20.011 --> 00:18:21.712
Life. boy, she whipped me and stuff. and i wound... i got
00:18:21.779 --> 00:18:24.182
Stuff. and i wound... i got turned over to my mother, and i
00:18:24.248 --> 00:18:25.483
Turned over to my mother, and i wound up in hell, burning in
00:18:25.550 --> 00:18:27.485
Wound up in hell, burning in hell because i'd smoked a
00:18:27.552 --> 00:18:28.586
Hell because i'd smoked a cigarette. now some of you
00:18:28.653 --> 00:18:30.288
Cigarette. now some of you watching this, think boy, you
00:18:30.354 --> 00:18:31.556
Watching this, think boy, you were messed up. you were so
00:18:31.622 --> 00:18:33.090
Were messed up. you were so sensitive to everything. that's
00:18:33.157 --> 00:18:35.092
Sensitive to everything. that's true. and i was messed up. but
00:18:35.159 --> 00:18:36.661
True. and i was messed up. but you know what it did? it kept me
00:18:36.727 --> 00:18:38.229
You know what it did? it kept me from living in sin. it limited
00:18:38.296 --> 00:18:40.698
From living in sin. it limited the amount of sin just like the
00:18:40.765 --> 00:18:42.700
The amount of sin just like the scripture says. but with it came
00:18:42.767 --> 00:18:45.403
Scripture says. but with it came a lot of condemnation. and did
00:18:45.469 --> 00:18:47.872
A lot of condemnation. and did you know there are probably some
00:18:47.939 --> 00:18:49.040
You know there are probably some of you watching this program
00:18:49.106 --> 00:18:50.174
Of you watching this program that you may have lived in
00:18:50.241 --> 00:18:51.242
That you may have lived in adultery, you may have had
00:18:51.309 --> 00:18:52.610
Adultery, you may have had multiple sexual partners outside
00:18:52.677 --> 00:18:55.513
Multiple sexual partners outside of marriage, you may have done
00:18:55.580 --> 00:18:57.148
Of marriage, you may have done dope, you may have gotten drunk,
00:18:57.215 --> 00:18:58.983
Dope, you may have gotten drunk, you may have done all kinds of
00:18:59.050 --> 00:19:00.251
You may have done all kinds of things, and you probably didn't
00:19:00.318 --> 00:19:02.320
Things, and you probably didn't live in as much condemnation as
00:19:02.386 --> 00:19:04.889
Live in as much condemnation as i did, even though i hadn't done
00:19:04.956 --> 00:19:07.258
I did, even though i hadn't done near the outward things that you
00:19:07.325 --> 00:19:09.560
Near the outward things that you had done. so see, this is what
00:19:09.627 --> 00:19:12.196
Had done. so see, this is what the law does. because i was
00:19:12.263 --> 00:19:13.798
The law does. because i was raised under the law, and i
00:19:13.864 --> 00:19:15.700
Raised under the law, and i mean, i knew the wrath of god,
00:19:15.766 --> 00:19:18.102
Mean, i knew the wrath of god, and i knew the old testament. i
00:19:18.169 --> 00:19:20.104
And i knew the old testament. i saw the judgment and the
00:19:20.171 --> 00:19:21.405
Saw the judgment and the punishment of god. it restrained
00:19:21.472 --> 00:19:24.208
Punishment of god. it restrained the amount of sin in my life,
00:19:24.275 --> 00:19:25.743
The amount of sin in my life, and there are some things about
00:19:25.810 --> 00:19:27.044
And there are some things about that that are really good. i
00:19:27.111 --> 00:19:29.013
That that are really good. i don't have to renew my mind from
00:19:29.080 --> 00:19:31.148
Don't have to renew my mind from some of the terrible things that
00:19:31.215 --> 00:19:32.583
Some of the terrible things that i've done that many of you have
00:19:32.650 --> 00:19:34.185
I've done that many of you have to deal with. some of you have
00:19:34.252 --> 00:19:36.554
To deal with. some of you have hurt people, you've destroyed
00:19:36.621 --> 00:19:39.624
Hurt people, you've destroyed marriages, you've hurt your
00:19:39.690 --> 00:19:41.726
Marriages, you've hurt your children. there are some of you
00:19:41.792 --> 00:19:43.628
Children. there are some of you that have to deal with things
00:19:43.694 --> 00:19:44.795
That have to deal with things that i don't have to deal with.
00:19:44.862 --> 00:19:46.831
That i don't have to deal with. and so in that sense, i'm really
00:19:46.897 --> 00:19:49.367
And so in that sense, i'm really glad that the law restrained the
00:19:49.433 --> 00:19:51.702
Glad that the law restrained the amount of sin that i did. but,
00:19:51.769 --> 00:19:54.472
Amount of sin that i did. but, on the other hand, i probably
00:19:54.538 --> 00:19:56.841
On the other hand, i probably lived with more condemnation,
00:19:56.907 --> 00:19:59.176
Lived with more condemnation, feeling more of the wrath and
00:19:59.243 --> 00:20:02.246
Feeling more of the wrath and the... i... i didn't enjoy the
00:20:02.313 --> 00:20:04.415
The... i... i didn't enjoy the presence of god. maybe some of
00:20:04.482 --> 00:20:06.350
Presence of god. maybe some of you who didn't even know the
00:20:06.417 --> 00:20:07.685
You who didn't even know the lord didn't have as much
00:20:07.752 --> 00:20:09.453
Lord didn't have as much condemnation as i had because
00:20:09.520 --> 00:20:11.088
Condemnation as i had because the law brings condemnation. so
00:20:11.155 --> 00:20:13.924
The law brings condemnation. so again, it's like those
00:20:13.991 --> 00:20:15.159
Again, it's like those commercials on television, you
00:20:15.226 --> 00:20:16.894
Commercials on television, you take one pill to solve a
00:20:16.961 --> 00:20:18.562
Take one pill to solve a problem, but it could kill you
00:20:18.629 --> 00:20:19.797
Problem, but it could kill you over here. it could make you
00:20:19.864 --> 00:20:21.065
Over here. it could make you impotent. it could do all these
00:20:21.132 --> 00:20:23.067
Impotent. it could do all these other things. the law had side
00:20:23.134 --> 00:20:25.536
Other things. the law had side effects. it accomplished a goal.
00:20:25.603 --> 00:20:27.538
Effects. it accomplished a goal. it did put fear in people. for
00:20:27.605 --> 00:20:29.540
It did put fear in people. for those who would receive it, it
00:20:29.607 --> 00:20:31.409
Those who would receive it, it made them turn from sin because
00:20:31.475 --> 00:20:33.511
Made them turn from sin because they were aware that they were
00:20:33.577 --> 00:20:34.712
They were aware that they were going to have to answer for that
00:20:34.779 --> 00:20:36.080
Going to have to answer for that sin. but it also brought a
00:20:36.147 --> 00:20:38.249
Sin. but it also brought a tremendous amount of
00:20:38.316 --> 00:20:39.350
Tremendous amount of condemnation. and now that we
00:20:39.417 --> 00:20:41.585
Condemnation. and now that we are in christ, now that jesus
00:20:41.652 --> 00:20:43.487
Are in christ, now that jesus has borne our sins, he was like
00:20:43.554 --> 00:20:45.323
Has borne our sins, he was like this lightning rod that all of
00:20:45.389 --> 00:20:47.658
This lightning rod that all of god's wrath came upon him. not
00:20:47.725 --> 00:20:50.294
God's wrath came upon him. not only for the sins that were in
00:20:50.361 --> 00:20:52.029
Only for the sins that were in the past, but for the ones in
00:20:52.096 --> 00:20:53.564
The past, but for the ones in the future. jesus died 2000
00:20:53.631 --> 00:20:56.867
The future. jesus died 2000 years ago before you and i
00:20:56.934 --> 00:20:58.302
Years ago before you and i existed. he's not dying for us
00:20:58.369 --> 00:21:00.638
Existed. he's not dying for us now. he paid for our sins 2000
00:21:00.705 --> 00:21:02.773
Now. he paid for our sins 2000 years ago. they were all future
00:21:02.840 --> 00:21:04.975
Years ago. they were all future sins at that time. jesus paid
00:21:05.042 --> 00:21:07.511
Sins at that time. jesus paid for our sins past, present, and
00:21:07.578 --> 00:21:09.146
For our sins past, present, and future. and now that we have
00:21:09.213 --> 00:21:11.182
Future. and now that we have received jesus as our lord, you
00:21:11.248 --> 00:21:13.617
Received jesus as our lord, you have to come out from under that
00:21:13.684 --> 00:21:16.020
Have to come out from under that old covenant law mindset that
00:21:16.087 --> 00:21:18.656
Old covenant law mindset that did nothing but show you how
00:21:18.723 --> 00:21:20.358
Did nothing but show you how ungodly you were and brought
00:21:20.424 --> 00:21:22.626
Ungodly you were and brought guilt and condemnation to you.
00:21:22.693 --> 00:21:24.695
Guilt and condemnation to you. and you need to enter into the
00:21:24.762 --> 00:21:26.597
And you need to enter into the new covenant that is full of
00:21:26.664 --> 00:21:28.933
New covenant that is full of grace and truth. and you need to
00:21:28.999 --> 00:21:31.435
Grace and truth. and you need to relate to god now without any
00:21:31.502 --> 00:21:34.271
Relate to god now without any sin consciousness. i'm going to
00:21:34.338 --> 00:21:37.541
Sin consciousness. i'm going to share some things in more
00:21:37.608 --> 00:21:38.743
Share some things in more detail, but i just was quoting
00:21:38.809 --> 00:21:40.544
Detail, but i just was quoting scripture to you that you can
00:21:40.611 --> 00:21:42.513
Scripture to you that you can live without a conscience of
00:21:42.580 --> 00:21:44.682
Live without a conscience of sin. that's what jesus purchased
00:21:44.749 --> 00:21:47.852
Sin. that's what jesus purchased for us. but it doesn't happen
00:21:47.918 --> 00:21:49.587
For us. but it doesn't happen automatically. you got
00:21:49.653 --> 00:21:50.755
Automatically. you got to know some things.
00:21:50.821 --> 00:21:51.589
A verse that i've used a couple
00:21:51.655 --> 00:21:52.757
A verse that i've used a couple of times, philippians 1:9, your
00:21:52.823 --> 00:21:55.025
Of times, philippians 1:9, your love needs to abound more
00:21:55.092 --> 00:21:56.794
Love needs to abound more and more in knowledge and
00:21:56.861 --> 00:21:59.263
And more in knowledge and in judgment. i'm giving you
00:21:59.330 --> 00:22:00.865
Knowledge from the word of god,
00:22:00.931 --> 00:22:02.533
Knowledge from the word of god, harmonizing the old covenant and
00:22:02.600 --> 00:22:04.802
Harmonizing the old covenant and the new covenant. and if you can
00:22:04.869 --> 00:22:06.270
The new covenant. and if you can receive this and put these
00:22:06.337 --> 00:22:07.605
Receive this and put these things together, it will cause
00:22:07.671 --> 00:22:09.440
Things together, it will cause your love to abound more and
00:22:09.507 --> 00:22:11.475
Your love to abound more and more. you'll come out from under
00:22:11.542 --> 00:22:13.310
More. you'll come out from under this condemnation and this
00:22:13.377 --> 00:22:15.446
This condemnation and this guilt, and you can serve god
00:22:15.513 --> 00:22:18.349
Guilt, and you can serve god without fear of punishment. man,
00:22:18.416 --> 00:22:22.420
Without fear of punishment. man, this... this has set me free. it
00:22:22.486 --> 00:22:25.256
This... this has set me free. it didn't set me free to go live in
00:22:25.322 --> 00:22:27.057
Didn't set me free to go live in sin. it set me free from the
00:22:27.124 --> 00:22:28.959
Sin. it set me free from the guilt and the penalty for the
00:22:29.026 --> 00:22:31.595
Guilt and the penalty for the sin that i'd already committed,
00:22:31.662 --> 00:22:33.898
And it freed me up to
00:22:33.964 --> 00:22:35.266
And it freed me up to serve god in newness of
00:22:35.332 --> 00:22:37.468
Serve god in newness of spirit, and not in the
00:22:37.535 --> 00:22:39.103
Spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
00:22:39.170 --> 00:22:40.371

>> because she believed that god
00:24:20.738 --> 00:24:22.172
Didn't always heal. danielle was
00:24:22.172 --> 00:24:24.308
Left without any hope of
00:24:24.308 --> 00:24:25.743
Breaking free from the torment
00:24:25.743 --> 00:24:27.244
She experienced every day, until
00:24:27.244 --> 00:24:29.780
Her parents introduced her to
00:24:29.780 --> 00:24:31.215
Andrew's healing university
00:24:31.215 --> 00:24:32.683
Course, where she discovered the
00:24:32.683 --> 00:24:34.385
Truth about god's will to heal,
00:24:34.385 --> 00:24:36.453
Chipping away at the religious
00:24:36.453 --> 00:24:37.888
Doctrine that had kept
00:24:37.888 --> 00:24:38.956
Her bound for so long.
00:24:38.956 --> 00:24:41.992
>> i had a big commute time, and
00:24:42.059 --> 00:24:44.762
So i would just listen to the
00:24:44.762 --> 00:24:46.230
Healing universities on my
00:24:46.230 --> 00:24:47.565
Drive, and that's where i just
00:24:47.565 --> 00:24:49.900
Started just hearing the truth
00:24:49.900 --> 00:24:51.735
For the first time. and so after
00:24:51.735 --> 00:24:54.138
I had one of the worst panic
00:24:54.138 --> 00:24:56.507
Attacks of my life, i just kept
00:24:56.507 --> 00:24:58.108
Renewing my mind in all of
00:24:58.108 --> 00:25:00.077
Andrew's teaching. a couple of
00:25:00.077 --> 00:25:02.046
Days later, i ended up just
00:25:02.046 --> 00:25:03.480
Getting completely healed of
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:04.815
Depression and anxiety and panic
00:25:04.815 --> 00:25:06.650
Attacks. had i not known the
00:25:06.650 --> 00:25:08.385
Truth of the word that andrew
00:25:08.385 --> 00:25:10.888
Wommack had shared. i don't
00:25:10.888 --> 00:25:13.057
Know if i would be here.
00:25:13.057 --> 00:25:15.125

According to ephesians 1:13, you

Pain, to be fearful.
