  • 00:01:37.210 --> 00:01:41.981
  • His wholeness package.
  • 00:01:41.981 --> 00:01:44.784
  • He cares about it.
  • 00:01:44.784 --> 00:01:48.087
  • Something happening in this life is no reason to back up and say,
  • 00:01:48.087 --> 00:01:51.658
  • "well, god don't care no more."
  • 00:01:51.658 --> 00:01:53.359
  • When are we going to get that?
  • 00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:54.727
  • This is life.
  • 00:01:54.727 --> 00:01:57.130
  • "bishop, when you say it's life and nobody is exempt."
  • 00:01:57.130 --> 00:02:01.935
  • Nobody's exempt.
  • 00:02:01.935 --> 00:02:03.403
  • And some of y'all have been having life happening to you,
  • 00:02:03.403 --> 00:02:06.206
  • And you're learning how to happen back to it.
  • 00:02:06.206 --> 00:02:08.341
  • I see a totally different thing when somebody passes on or when
  • 00:02:12.579 --> 00:02:15.114
  • They die, the thing i think about is, oh, they have just
  • 00:02:15.114 --> 00:02:19.185
  • Stepped up to the next stage of existence.
  • 00:02:19.185 --> 00:02:24.324
  • Wonder what that's like.
  • 00:02:24.324 --> 00:02:27.727
  • They'd done been born--see, here's the thing.
  • 00:02:27.727 --> 00:02:31.130
  • God knew you before you got the implantation into the womb, or
  • 00:02:31.130 --> 00:02:37.770
  • Into the belly of a woman.
  • 00:02:37.770 --> 00:02:40.673
  • God knew you first, then you're here, right?
  • 00:02:40.673 --> 00:02:46.479
  • Then you came through the entrance path.
  • 00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:50.216
  • You got here to get a body.
  • 00:02:50.216 --> 00:02:52.619
  • You stop by him, your spirit.
  • 00:02:52.619 --> 00:02:55.922
  • Now you start living life, natural things, growing up,
  • 00:02:55.922 --> 00:03:01.394
  • Everything maturing, yada yada.
  • 00:03:01.394 --> 00:03:03.863
  • You get to a certain stage, you go education because you're
  • 00:03:03.863 --> 00:03:06.299
  • Programming the soul.
  • 00:03:06.299 --> 00:03:10.436
  • You grow up, you live, you encounter relationships, all
  • 00:03:10.436 --> 00:03:15.708
  • Your mental stuff comes because you're encountering
  • 00:03:15.708 --> 00:03:17.744
  • Relationships, you put other folks here so you can encounter
  • 00:03:17.744 --> 00:03:20.380
  • The relationship, all kinds of people so you can encounter the
  • 00:03:20.380 --> 00:03:22.749
  • Relationship, not just folks you like, not just folks that like
  • 00:03:22.749 --> 00:03:25.184
  • You, all kinds of stuff so you can encounter, and process,
  • 00:03:25.184 --> 00:03:28.721
  • And understand.
  • 00:03:28.721 --> 00:03:30.123
  • You gotta--you know, you gotta figure out how to work this
  • 00:03:30.123 --> 00:03:32.292
  • Thing through and he says, "so, i gave you a manual."
  • 00:03:32.292 --> 00:03:34.027
  • Ignore the manual and then you're gonna have to have life
  • 00:03:34.027 --> 00:03:36.496
  • Teach you, and then you go through all these crazy things
  • 00:03:36.496 --> 00:03:38.531
  • That could have been avoided if you'd have paid attention to the
  • 00:03:38.531 --> 00:03:40.333
  • Manual, but you ain't got time for no manual.
  • 00:03:40.333 --> 00:03:42.235
  • Them church folks in that manual.
  • 00:03:42.235 --> 00:03:44.037
  • Then you live your life and maybe you meet somebody, maybe
  • 00:03:47.974 --> 00:03:51.010
  • You don't, you know, maybe you get married, maybe you don't,
  • 00:03:51.010 --> 00:03:53.546
  • Maybe you have children, maybe you don't, but you still got to
  • 00:03:53.546 --> 00:03:58.351
  • Learn how to get along with folks.
  • 00:03:58.351 --> 00:04:00.286
  • You gotta learn how to, you know, build boundaries or not.
  • 00:04:00.286 --> 00:04:04.557
  • You gotta learn how to, you know, not be devalued or not.
  • 00:04:04.557 --> 00:04:10.163
  • Why?
  • 00:04:10.163 --> 00:04:11.531
  • Because you're a free moral agent, so you get to make
  • 00:04:11.531 --> 00:04:13.466
  • Decision on this whole thing.
  • 00:04:13.466 --> 00:04:15.001
  • And i learned when i talk to people because i've kind of gone
  • 00:04:15.001 --> 00:04:17.870
  • Through some stuff that, that 20-year-old had gone through,
  • 00:04:17.870 --> 00:04:20.440
  • And he knows so much more than i do, so i'm like, i've seen this
  • 00:04:20.440 --> 00:04:25.311
  • Movie, you haven't, have at it.
  • 00:04:25.311 --> 00:04:29.816
  • Have at it, bro.
  • 00:04:29.816 --> 00:04:31.184
  • I already know where this ends up at.
  • 00:04:31.184 --> 00:04:33.920
  • What would happen if the younger would have respect for older
  • 00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:37.023
  • Ones like they used to.
  • 00:04:37.023 --> 00:04:39.125
  • They could avoid a whole lot of things, but they're listening to
  • 00:04:39.125 --> 00:04:42.762
  • The 19-year-old influencer.
  • 00:04:42.762 --> 00:04:49.535
  • And so, now they got to go through the thing that they
  • 00:04:49.535 --> 00:04:52.672
  • Could have gone through in a better way because we got the
  • 00:04:52.672 --> 00:04:55.908
  • Builder's manual.
  • 00:04:55.908 --> 00:04:58.444
  • And they think it's just a religious book.
  • 00:04:58.444 --> 00:05:01.714
  • And you go around all your life bitter and the bible talks about
  • 00:05:01.714 --> 00:05:04.517
  • Forgiving, and you're not going to forgive because, "ain't
  • 00:05:04.517 --> 00:05:06.185
  • Nobody gonna do me like that, i ain't the one, i'm gonna give
  • 00:05:06.185 --> 00:05:08.588
  • You a piece of my mind," and all that stuff, and you don't
  • 00:05:08.588 --> 00:05:10.723
  • Realize that's the wrong way to handle it.
  • 00:05:10.723 --> 00:05:13.126
  • Life is just whooping your tail.
  • 00:05:13.126 --> 00:05:19.232
  • Then the kids grow up or not, and they get married or not, and
  • 00:05:19.232 --> 00:05:22.402
  • They have grandkids or not.
  • 00:05:22.402 --> 00:05:24.670
  • And then you start getting older or not because maybe you didn't
  • 00:05:24.670 --> 00:05:28.574
  • Listen to the movie, so you died at an early age or not.
  • 00:05:28.574 --> 00:05:33.146
  • Then you start looking for other things to make you feel good
  • 00:05:33.146 --> 00:05:35.248
  • Because you didn't pay attention to god or not, you know.
  • 00:05:35.248 --> 00:05:38.251
  • And so, you were looking for things to make you feel better
  • 00:05:38.251 --> 00:05:41.287
  • Because you were in a place of discomfort and you wanted some
  • 00:05:41.287 --> 00:05:44.090
  • Immediate comfort because you just want to feel better, and
  • 00:05:44.090 --> 00:05:47.794
  • You started doing things or not.
  • 00:05:47.794 --> 00:05:49.929
  • And then you dro--you start drinking a bunch of alcohol and
  • 00:05:49.929 --> 00:05:52.665
  • You thought, well, there's nothing wrong with drinking
  • 00:05:52.665 --> 00:05:54.300
  • Alcohol except you're trying to lose weight.
  • 00:05:54.300 --> 00:05:56.169
  • You can't figure out why you can't lose weight because
  • 00:05:56.169 --> 00:05:58.571
  • Drinking alcohol is completely damaging your metabolism and
  • 00:05:58.571 --> 00:06:02.575
  • You--but you know everything so you kind of keep quiet about it
  • 00:06:02.575 --> 00:06:07.380
  • And--or not.
  • 00:06:07.380 --> 00:06:13.519
  • You know, you don't think anything's wrong with sex and
  • 00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:15.788
  • Then you just kind of get real loose with the sex thing and,
  • 00:06:15.788 --> 00:06:18.224
  • You know, nobody's using protection, nobody does that
  • 00:06:18.224 --> 00:06:21.027
  • Anymore and now you have a kid and you think, "it'll be all
  • 00:06:21.027 --> 00:06:23.029
  • Right if i have a kid," you know, after all, they're so cute
  • 00:06:23.029 --> 00:06:27.033
  • And all that or not.
  • 00:06:27.033 --> 00:06:28.968
  • And you know--so--then you didn't realize that, that kid's
  • 00:06:28.968 --> 00:06:38.544
  • Gonna take 20 years of your life or not.
  • 00:06:38.544 --> 00:06:43.182
  • Or you decide, "well, i'm not gonna have the kid," you have
  • 00:06:43.182 --> 00:06:45.518
  • An abortion.
  • 00:06:45.518 --> 00:06:46.853
  • "well, it's not gonna mess with me, at least i won't have it,"
  • 00:06:46.853 --> 00:06:48.621
  • Or not.
  • 00:06:48.621 --> 00:06:52.625
  • Then you get older, and as you get older, you've gone through
  • 00:06:52.625 --> 00:06:57.196
  • Enough pasts to realize, and then regret comes in and, "i
  • 00:06:57.196 --> 00:07:01.601
  • Don't know how to deal with this regret."
  • 00:07:01.601 --> 00:07:04.637
  • And then you wish you just did that and wish you did that
  • 00:07:04.637 --> 00:07:07.540
  • And--or not.
  • 00:07:07.540 --> 00:07:10.109
  • And then, you know, you have no idea how to participate in
  • 00:07:10.109 --> 00:07:17.350
  • Healthy living.
  • 00:07:17.350 --> 00:07:19.485
  • You trust anything and everybody.
  • 00:07:19.485 --> 00:07:21.420
  • If it's on tv, it's real.
  • 00:07:21.420 --> 00:07:23.523
  • If it's in writing, it's true.
  • 00:07:23.523 --> 00:07:27.093
  • And then you die, and then you enter into this great mystery
  • 00:07:27.093 --> 00:07:35.768
  • That we think we have all figured out.
  • 00:07:35.768 --> 00:07:39.438
  • I've learned to stop it, then you die.
  • 00:07:39.438 --> 00:07:42.775
  • Since i've never seen that movie before, and very excited about
  • 00:07:42.775 --> 00:07:48.915
  • Seeing this next stage of existence, to see what pure
  • 00:07:48.915 --> 00:07:56.155
  • Love does.
  • 00:07:56.155 --> 00:08:05.197
  • And so, we have concluded physical natural life and went
  • 00:08:05.197 --> 00:08:11.003
  • Through all of that.
  • 00:08:11.003 --> 00:08:13.005
  • Now we're getting ready to be trained in the spiritual life.
  • 00:08:13.005 --> 00:08:18.110
  • So, when all that training's over with, what's his plan?
  • 00:08:18.110 --> 00:08:23.883
  • He knows his plan because he's been to the end.
  • 00:08:23.883 --> 00:08:26.018
  • We don't know his plan because we think we've been to the end
  • 00:08:26.018 --> 00:08:28.821
  • Because we read revelations.
  • 00:08:28.821 --> 00:08:31.457
  • And i'm just excited to see that next movie.
  • 00:08:35.361 --> 00:08:40.600
  • So, if i didn't know anything and if i had to pick a few
  • 00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:43.336
  • Things out to make sure i do in this life, i want to do these
  • 00:08:43.336 --> 00:08:49.775
  • Two things: forgive and love.
  • 00:08:49.775 --> 00:09:06.292
  • Isaiah 53:5, and then 1 peter 2:24.
  • 00:09:10.129 --> 00:09:17.436
  • They both say: "but he was wounded for our transgressions,
  • 00:09:17.436 --> 00:09:20.339
  • He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of
  • 00:09:20.339 --> 00:09:23.576
  • Our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we," what?
  • 00:09:23.576 --> 00:09:26.445
  • "are healed."
  • 00:09:26.445 --> 00:09:29.048
  • And then we go to 1 peter 2:24, and he says: "who his own self
  • 00:09:29.048 --> 00:09:33.753
  • Bare our sins in his body on the tree, that we, being dead to
  • 00:09:33.753 --> 00:09:37.490
  • Sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes
  • 00:09:37.490 --> 00:09:42.561
  • You were healed."
  • 00:09:42.561 --> 00:09:44.597
  • So, if we are healed and were healed, we is healed.
  • 00:09:44.597 --> 00:09:48.801
  • So, stand on it.
  • 00:09:48.801 --> 00:09:52.371
  • Stand on it.
  • 00:09:52.371 --> 00:09:54.807
  • And then finally, go back to 3 john 1:2.
  • 00:09:54.807 --> 00:10:00.613
  • 3 john 1:2.
  • 00:10:00.613 --> 00:10:01.981
  • Here's this last part.
  • 00:10:01.981 --> 00:10:03.315
  • He says, "beloved, i wish above all things that thou mayest
  • 00:10:03.315 --> 00:10:05.484
  • Prosper and be in health," and here's a big one, "even as thy
  • 00:10:05.484 --> 00:10:09.855
  • Soul prospers."
  • 00:10:09.855 --> 00:10:12.825
  • So, why do i take my time and and preach like this?
  • 00:10:12.825 --> 00:10:17.663
  • Because i want to make sure your soul is prospering.
  • 00:10:17.663 --> 00:10:21.367
  • I love people who exalt the word.
  • 00:10:25.171 --> 00:10:28.174
  • But there's a reason why god, when he talked about the
  • 00:10:28.174 --> 00:10:30.276
  • Fivefold ministry gift, he mentioned pastor and teacher.
  • 00:10:30.276 --> 00:10:37.183
  • Actually, they were like, you know, i like to say it in a
  • 00:10:37.183 --> 00:10:43.389
  • Fourfold ministry, really, the apostle, the evangelist,
  • 00:10:43.389 --> 00:10:51.864
  • The prophet.
  • 00:10:51.864 --> 00:10:53.999
  • And then when he gets down there, he says the pastor
  • 00:10:53.999 --> 00:10:55.701
  • And teacher.
  • 00:10:55.701 --> 00:10:58.370
  • Because i don't think you can pastor correctly
  • 00:10:58.370 --> 00:11:00.973
  • Without teaching.
  • 00:11:00.973 --> 00:11:05.144
  • And i can't afford to just inspire you every sunday because
  • 00:11:05.144 --> 00:11:12.952
  • I have to pastor by teaching.
  • 00:11:12.952 --> 00:11:18.424
  • How am i going to lead you in the right way if i don't teach
  • 00:11:18.424 --> 00:11:20.659
  • You, and say i'm pastoring.
  • 00:11:20.659 --> 00:11:24.330
  • And my teaching's got to be accurate and it's got to be in
  • 00:11:24.330 --> 00:11:29.502
  • Line with this new covenant even though somebody else in the
  • 00:11:29.502 --> 00:11:35.875
  • World says, "i don't agree with it."
  • 00:11:35.875 --> 00:11:37.710
  • I'm not preaching because you gave me your approval to
  • 00:11:37.710 --> 00:11:41.580
  • Preach this.
  • 00:11:41.580 --> 00:11:43.749
  • My job as a pastor and teacher is to to stay with god, so he
  • 00:11:43.749 --> 00:11:49.421
  • Can help me to pastor by showing me what to teach.
  • 00:11:49.421 --> 00:11:56.362
  • Are you understanding what i'm saying?
  • 00:11:56.362 --> 00:11:58.564
  • So, when he talks about soul prosperity, and he says about
  • 00:11:58.564 --> 00:12:03.335
  • The pastor, that i am to watch over your souls, so he said
  • 00:12:03.335 --> 00:12:08.474
  • Don't make it hard for me.
  • 00:12:08.474 --> 00:12:11.977
  • How do i watch over your souls?
  • 00:12:11.977 --> 00:12:13.979
  • Climb up on the balcony and put some binoculars on?
  • 00:12:13.979 --> 00:12:16.382
  • That's not what he's talking about.
  • 00:12:16.382 --> 00:12:19.018
  • I watch over your soul to make sure the right stuff is being
  • 00:12:19.018 --> 00:12:24.323
  • Put in there, so that you can make sure your thinking is
  • 00:12:24.323 --> 00:12:28.527
  • Right, because if you're thinking is not right, then your
  • 00:12:28.527 --> 00:12:31.730
  • Emotions won't be right.
  • 00:12:31.730 --> 00:12:34.233
  • And if your emotions are messed up, your decisions are gonna be
  • 00:12:34.233 --> 00:12:36.836
  • Messed up.
  • 00:12:36.836 --> 00:12:38.204
  • Your whole destination is gonna be messed up.
  • 00:12:38.204 --> 00:12:40.272
  • Which is why i do not mind corrective teaching of my
  • 00:12:40.272 --> 00:12:44.577
  • Own teaching.
  • 00:12:44.577 --> 00:12:46.412
  • I love you too much to say i ain't getting up and tell them
  • 00:12:46.412 --> 00:12:50.449
  • That i'm going to teach that over again because i felt like i
  • 00:12:50.449 --> 00:12:53.686
  • Taught it wrong the first time.
  • 00:12:53.686 --> 00:12:55.321
  • I love you too much.
  • 00:12:55.321 --> 00:12:56.689
  • I ain't got time to be standing up in front of god talking
  • 00:12:56.689 --> 00:12:58.891
  • About, well, i knew the truth, but i wouldn't tell them because
  • 00:12:58.891 --> 00:13:01.794
  • I didn't want to.
  • 00:13:01.794 --> 00:13:03.162
  • That's approval addiction.
  • 00:13:03.162 --> 00:13:07.233
  • And like i said, i'm grown.
  • 00:13:07.233 --> 00:13:08.601
  • I don't need your approval.
  • 00:13:08.601 --> 00:13:16.508
  • Alright, now listen to this real quick, "even as your
  • 00:13:16.508 --> 00:13:18.510
  • Soul prospers."
  • 00:13:18.510 --> 00:13:19.845
  • Your soul is made up of your mind, your will, and
  • 00:13:19.845 --> 00:13:22.615
  • Your emotions.
  • 00:13:22.615 --> 00:13:25.784
  • And the bible says to renew your mind so you can prove what is
  • 00:13:25.784 --> 00:13:29.889
  • That good, and perfect, and acceptable will of god.
  • 00:13:29.889 --> 00:13:33.692
  • So, sometimes it sounds like you're in a classroom, i
  • 00:13:33.692 --> 00:13:37.229
  • Understand that, but i can't not do that and stand in the
  • 00:13:37.229 --> 00:13:44.503
  • Position of a pastor.
  • 00:13:44.503 --> 00:13:47.740
  • Now, when i'm invited to some other place, i can holler, and
  • 00:13:47.740 --> 00:13:51.410
  • Scream, and rhyme, and chime, and do all kinds of stuff like
  • 00:13:51.410 --> 00:13:55.247
  • That, but now my heart goes out to any congregation i go to
  • 00:13:55.247 --> 00:13:58.984
  • Because i'm wondering how have they been pastored.
  • 00:13:58.984 --> 00:14:05.991
  • I don't want you outside on sundays riding a bicycle because
  • 00:14:10.162 --> 00:14:13.299
  • You see that more profitable than you see coming in church
  • 00:14:13.299 --> 00:14:17.102
  • And listening to an hour of teaching that's going to help
  • 00:14:17.102 --> 00:14:20.205
  • Your life, your soul prosperity.
  • 00:14:20.205 --> 00:14:23.776
  • You don't come here just to worship god, you come here so
  • 00:14:23.776 --> 00:14:26.512
  • You can get the nourishment that's necessary, so you can
  • 00:14:26.512 --> 00:14:30.082
  • Really go out there and worship god.
  • 00:14:30.082 --> 00:14:31.617
  • You come to church to get built up.
  • 00:14:31.617 --> 00:14:35.587
  • You go out there to worship.
  • 00:14:35.587 --> 00:14:40.926
  • So, if i'm equipping you properly, you'll have the
  • 00:14:40.926 --> 00:14:44.363
  • Necessary tools to go out and make a mark that can't
  • 00:14:44.363 --> 00:14:49.134
  • Be erased.
  • 00:14:49.134 --> 00:14:50.469
  • And besides all that, you are labeled world changers.
  • 00:14:50.469 --> 00:14:55.207
  • You can't be in confusion all the time, you are
  • 00:14:55.207 --> 00:14:57.443
  • World changers.
  • 00:14:57.443 --> 00:14:58.777
  • And i'm not talking about going around the whole world.
  • 00:14:58.777 --> 00:15:00.546
  • I'm just talking about making a mark in the worlds that you
  • 00:15:00.546 --> 00:15:03.515
  • Encounter on a day to day basis.
  • 00:15:03.515 --> 00:15:05.584
  • But i can only control what i can control.
  • 00:15:09.521 --> 00:15:12.624
  • I can't control you coming to church.
  • 00:15:12.624 --> 00:15:13.959
  • I can't control you spending time in the word, i can't
  • 00:15:13.959 --> 00:15:16.962
  • Control you except responsibility to keep up with
  • 00:15:16.962 --> 00:15:20.132
  • The series that i'm i'm teaching.
  • 00:15:20.132 --> 00:15:22.468
  • It's no longer about coming to church, check, i paid my dues
  • 00:15:22.468 --> 00:15:25.904
  • To god.
  • 00:15:25.904 --> 00:15:27.239
  • It's about, i am renewing my mind.
  • 00:15:27.239 --> 00:15:30.209
  • So, even if i'm not here, i need to be responsible to get what i
  • 00:15:30.209 --> 00:15:34.980
  • Didn't get because i wasn't here for some--because things happen,
  • 00:15:34.980 --> 00:15:38.083
  • We understand that.
  • 00:15:38.083 --> 00:15:43.222
  • The soul is the thermostat of your life.
  • 00:15:43.222 --> 00:15:49.128
  • Your soul is the thermostat of your life.
  • 00:15:49.128 --> 00:15:54.466
  • Your outer life reflects your inner health.
  • 00:15:54.466 --> 00:16:00.005
  • What comes out of you is a result of what's in you, "and
  • 00:16:00.005 --> 00:16:06.278
  • Grace prospers your soul."
  • 00:16:06.278 --> 00:16:09.715
  • In fact, in four different ways, let me give it to you.
  • 00:16:09.715 --> 00:16:11.984
  • Grace prospers your soul, number one, by removing
  • 00:16:11.984 --> 00:16:21.527
  • Sin consciousness.
  • 00:16:21.527 --> 00:16:25.864
  • Number two, by restoring innocence consciousness.
  • 00:16:25.864 --> 00:16:35.240
  • Number three, by anchoring you in the identity in christ.
  • 00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:45.050
  • Number four, by replacing fear with rest.
  • 00:16:45.050 --> 00:16:51.557
  • Removing sin consciousness, restoring innocence, anchoring
  • 00:16:55.461 --> 00:16:59.665
  • Identity in christ, replacing fear with risk.
  • 00:16:59.665 --> 00:17:05.370
  • Real quickly, hebrews 9:14.
  • 00:17:05.370 --> 00:17:09.775
  • Hebrews 9:14.
  • 00:17:09.775 --> 00:17:15.514
  • I grew up that if the church wasn't screaming back at me and
  • 00:17:15.514 --> 00:17:18.684
  • Shouting at me, i am flunking.
  • 00:17:18.684 --> 00:17:21.653
  • Now, if you're screaming too much and not quiet like this, i
  • 00:17:21.653 --> 00:17:26.758
  • Have not touch you in the right way in your soul.
  • 00:17:26.758 --> 00:17:33.398
  • You're writing, you're recalibrating, you're thinking
  • 00:17:33.398 --> 00:17:36.135
  • About what you understood, comparing it with what you're
  • 00:17:36.135 --> 00:17:39.705
  • Hearing right now, and things begin to happen and your life
  • 00:17:39.705 --> 00:17:44.042
  • Will change.
  • 00:17:44.042 --> 00:17:46.545
  • But if all we do is come in here just to have a good time, bro,
  • 00:17:46.545 --> 00:17:51.850
  • You will suffer in your life because you don't know enough to
  • 00:17:51.850 --> 00:17:54.753
  • Fight life and to fight the enemy that's trying to kill you.
  • 00:17:54.753 --> 00:17:59.391
  • You hear me?
  • 00:18:02.761 --> 00:18:05.264
  • So, i'm willing to take the risk that watching over your soul
  • 00:18:05.264 --> 00:18:11.203
  • Involves teaching, and training, and then some inspiration to
  • 00:18:11.203 --> 00:18:19.511
  • Impact your emotions.
  • 00:18:19.511 --> 00:18:20.846
  • He says in verse 14, "how much more shall the blood of christ,
  • 00:18:20.846 --> 00:18:23.949
  • Who through the eternal spirit offered himself without spot to
  • 00:18:23.949 --> 00:18:28.453
  • God, how much more will he purge your conscience from dead works
  • 00:18:28.453 --> 00:18:34.393
  • So you can serve the living god?"
  • 00:18:34.393 --> 00:18:35.894
  • So, he says, i got to get your conscience purged from doing
  • 00:18:35.894 --> 00:18:41.667
  • Things to deserve from god, that's what dead works are.
  • 00:18:41.667 --> 00:18:47.039
  • Dead works are you're doing something to position yourself
  • 00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:50.909
  • In a place where you now deserve from god.
  • 00:18:50.909 --> 00:18:53.178
  • So example, you--you're going to be good, so you can deserve
  • 00:18:53.178 --> 00:18:59.885
  • God's goodness.
  • 00:18:59.885 --> 00:19:01.220
  • That's dead works.
  • 00:19:01.220 --> 00:19:02.554
  • He says you cannot serve god like that.
  • 00:19:02.554 --> 00:19:04.156
  • And 90% of the church is doing that.
  • 00:19:04.156 --> 00:19:07.125
  • I come to church so i can deserve god to show up in
  • 00:19:07.125 --> 00:19:10.562
  • My life.
  • 00:19:10.562 --> 00:19:12.531
  • I tithe so i can deserve god to show up in my finances.
  • 00:19:12.531 --> 00:19:18.637
  • He says, "i need to purge your conscience from that," and
  • 00:19:18.637 --> 00:19:21.740
  • He has.
  • 00:19:21.740 --> 00:19:23.475
  • He's purged your conscience from dead works, thinking you got to
  • 00:19:23.475 --> 00:19:28.413
  • Do something to deserve something, so that you can serve
  • 00:19:28.413 --> 00:19:31.750
  • The living god.
  • 00:19:31.750 --> 00:19:33.518
  • And, you know, people will fight it because they're just
  • 00:19:33.518 --> 00:19:37.055
  • Unfamiliar with some of the things concerning the grace of
  • 00:19:37.055 --> 00:19:39.992
  • God, and i've been here before, guys.
  • 00:19:39.992 --> 00:19:44.796
  • I've not been in a place, i don't think in 44 years of my
  • 00:19:44.796 --> 00:19:47.332
  • Ministry, where god hadn't taught--got me to teach
  • 00:19:47.332 --> 00:19:50.769
  • Something that went against the stream.
  • 00:19:50.769 --> 00:19:54.873
  • But eventually, i started hearing other people saying the
  • 00:19:54.873 --> 00:19:58.644
  • Same thing.
  • 00:19:58.644 --> 00:20:01.113
  • Some of the same people who were critical are the ones who are
  • 00:20:01.113 --> 00:20:03.215
  • Now doing it.
  • 00:20:03.215 --> 00:20:06.151
  • That's what you call a world changer.
  • 00:20:06.151 --> 00:20:09.021
  • We don't ride on streets that have already been constructed.
  • 00:20:09.021 --> 00:20:13.058
  • We knock the trees down, we grade the land, we put the
  • 00:20:13.058 --> 00:20:16.228
  • Pavement down, we put it down so other people can begin to flow
  • 00:20:16.228 --> 00:20:21.300
  • In the paths that we've created.
  • 00:20:21.300 --> 00:20:22.668
  • That's what we do.
  • 00:20:22.668 --> 00:20:24.503
  • Don't you think i wondered why in the world do i have cancer
  • 00:20:27.773 --> 00:20:31.109
  • For the second time?
  • 00:20:31.109 --> 00:20:33.278
  • God, what's up?
  • 00:20:33.278 --> 00:20:35.113
  • And the first thing you want to do is go to play that
  • 00:20:35.113 --> 00:20:37.282
  • Little role.
  • 00:20:37.282 --> 00:20:38.617
  • Did i do something wrong?
  • 00:20:38.617 --> 00:20:40.485
  • See, that's an opportunity for you to stand.
  • 00:20:40.485 --> 00:20:42.154
  • I ain't do nothing wrong, you love me, you provided for me,
  • 00:20:42.154 --> 00:20:46.258
  • And i'm standing.
  • 00:20:46.258 --> 00:20:47.592
  • I don't know what this thing doing here, but it's about
  • 00:20:47.592 --> 00:20:49.761
  • To go.
  • 00:20:49.761 --> 00:20:51.129
  • Don't make your home because you're about to go.
  • 00:20:51.129 --> 00:20:52.764
  • I'm from college park, ain't no way in the world you're going to
  • 00:20:52.764 --> 00:20:54.800
  • Stay here, you about to go.
  • 00:20:54.800 --> 00:20:57.235
  • What is about to happen with us?
  • 00:21:00.906 --> 00:21:05.477
  • What's getting ready to go on in this world?
  • 00:21:05.477 --> 00:21:09.047
  • You will be prepared.
  • 00:21:09.047 --> 00:21:14.686
  • Right now, my job as your pastor is to make sure you're prepared.
  • 00:21:14.686 --> 00:21:18.223
  • I ain't got time to be talking to you about daniel in the
  • 00:21:18.223 --> 00:21:20.025
  • Lion's den.
  • 00:21:20.025 --> 00:21:21.360
  • I got to talk to you about how daniel got out of that
  • 00:21:21.360 --> 00:21:23.228
  • Lion's den.
  • 00:21:23.228 --> 00:21:24.563
