  • Creflo dollar: not how many times you pray for people, not
  • 00:00:11.057 --> 00:00:13.093
  • That you pray for someone and something happened, not because
  • 00:00:13.093 --> 00:00:14.828
  • You prophesized their middle name.
  • 00:00:14.828 --> 00:00:17.397
  • No other circus act is going to convince them that you are
  • 00:00:17.397 --> 00:00:22.001
  • God's disciples.
  • 00:00:22.001 --> 00:00:23.369

  • 00:00:27.073 --> 00:00:33.113
  • But they don't believe.
  • 00:00:33.113 --> 00:00:34.447
  • So, i--as you pay the debt of love, that's gonna be proof that
  • 00:00:34.447 --> 00:00:39.853
  • You're my disciples."

  • 00:01:46.219 --> 00:01:50.190
  • Creflo: acts chapter 1 and 8. is this power to be transformed?
  • 00:01:51.925 --> 00:01:56.596
  • Well, in verse 8 it says, "but you shall receive power."
  • 00:01:56.596 --> 00:02:00.233
  • Literally, it is the ability to get the job done.
  • 00:02:00.233 --> 00:02:03.703
  • Power, the ability to get results.
  • 00:02:03.703 --> 00:02:08.007
  • "but you have received--you shall receive power, after that
  • 00:02:08.007 --> 00:02:10.777
  • The holy ghost has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses
  • 00:02:10.777 --> 00:02:15.782
  • Unto me both in jerusalem, and in all judea, and in samaria,
  • 00:02:15.782 --> 00:02:20.853
  • And unto the uttermost parts of the earth."
  • 00:02:20.853 --> 00:02:24.724
  • And so, you say, "they receive power."
  • 00:02:24.724 --> 00:02:28.394
  • And i said, "for what?"
  • 00:02:28.394 --> 00:02:31.864
  • And then somebody gets religious, "to be witnesses.
  • 00:02:31.864 --> 00:02:34.200
  • Yeah, what that mean?
  • 00:02:34.200 --> 00:02:35.835
  • What does that look like?"
  • 00:02:35.835 --> 00:02:38.238
  • And so, let's gather context together and see what we
  • 00:02:38.238 --> 00:02:43.243
  • See here.
  • 00:02:43.243 --> 00:02:44.577
  • You go to john 1 and 12, he can answer that question of,
  • 00:02:44.577 --> 00:02:48.381
  • "for what?"
  • 00:02:48.381 --> 00:02:50.483
  • He says, "but as many as received him, to them gave he
  • 00:02:50.483 --> 00:02:56.556
  • Power to become sons of god, even to them that believe on
  • 00:02:56.556 --> 00:03:04.964
  • His name."
  • 00:03:04.964 --> 00:03:06.599
  • So, power to be transformed into sons of god, daughters of god.
  • 00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:13.373
  • Verse 5 and 5, it mention this, but let's look at it now.
  • 00:03:13.373 --> 00:03:16.976
  • Verse 5 of--5 and 5, we see the work of the holy spirit in us.
  • 00:03:16.976 --> 00:03:22.248
  • So notice what happens as he pours this love on the inside
  • 00:03:22.248 --> 00:03:27.520
  • Of us.
  • 00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:28.855
  • "and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of god is not
  • 00:03:28.855 --> 00:03:30.823
  • Shed abroad--because the love of god is shed abroad in our hearts
  • 00:03:30.823 --> 00:03:35.261
  • By the holy ghost which is given unto us."
  • 00:03:35.261 --> 00:03:38.498
  • So, we have the holy spirit given to us and he is going to
  • 00:03:38.498 --> 00:03:43.603
  • Hit this transformation.
  • 00:03:43.603 --> 00:03:45.905
  • And the first act of the holy spirit is to pour love
  • 00:03:45.905 --> 00:03:50.977
  • In us.
  • 00:03:50.977 --> 00:03:52.445
  • Wow.
  • 00:03:52.445 --> 00:03:54.080
  • The work of the holy spirit in us to transform us into the
  • 00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:59.085
  • Image of christ, which is the essence of god's love as he
  • 00:03:59.085 --> 00:04:05.391
  • Shows us in 2 corinthians, i believe in verse--chapter 3
  • 00:04:05.391 --> 00:04:10.930
  • And 18.
  • 00:04:10.930 --> 00:04:12.298
  • Turn to 2 corinthians chapter 3 and 18.
  • 00:04:12.298 --> 00:04:14.500
  • So the--we receive power, the power to be transformed in the
  • 00:04:14.500 --> 00:04:18.771
  • Sons and daughters of god.
  • 00:04:18.771 --> 00:04:20.406
  • The holy spirit now comes in and his job is to transform us into
  • 00:04:20.406 --> 00:04:25.545
  • The image of christ.
  • 00:04:25.545 --> 00:04:26.913
  • All of this has to do with transforming us into the image
  • 00:04:26.913 --> 00:04:33.186
  • Of jesus christ.
  • 00:04:33.186 --> 00:04:35.021
  • We literally took the power in the holy spirit and made it all
  • 00:04:35.021 --> 00:04:39.325
  • About, you know, doing some manifestations or--and ain't
  • 00:04:39.325 --> 00:04:43.529
  • Nothing wrong with that, those things will come, but we
  • 00:04:43.529 --> 00:04:45.231
  • Completely covered up the fact that, you know, he is going to
  • 00:04:45.231 --> 00:04:50.636
  • Be transforming us into christ.
  • 00:04:50.636 --> 00:04:53.339
  • We're becoming something--someone.
  • 00:04:53.339 --> 00:04:55.942
  • We're becoming him.
  • 00:04:55.942 --> 00:04:57.276
  • And when we see him, we will be just like him.
  • 00:04:57.276 --> 00:04:59.078
  • Why?
  • 00:04:59.078 --> 00:05:00.446
  • Because the power has been given, the transformation
  • 00:05:00.446 --> 00:05:02.849
  • Has started.
  • 00:05:02.849 --> 00:05:04.183
  • You remember, jesus made a commitment.
  • 00:05:04.183 --> 00:05:05.551
  • He says, "i will start the work in you, i will continue the work
  • 00:05:05.551 --> 00:05:09.589
  • In you, and i will finish the work in you."
  • 00:05:09.589 --> 00:05:11.924
  • Ladies and gentlemen, there's a work going on in you.
  • 00:05:11.924 --> 00:05:15.495
  • There's a work going on in you.
  • 00:05:15.495 --> 00:05:17.330
  • There's a work going on in you.
  • 00:05:17.330 --> 00:05:19.132
  • We don't--we definitely don't want to turn church into the
  • 00:05:19.132 --> 00:05:22.635
  • Stage where we perform.
  • 00:05:22.635 --> 00:05:25.838
  • That's not what this is.
  • 00:05:25.838 --> 00:05:27.540
  • There's a work going on in all of us that we're being
  • 00:05:27.540 --> 00:05:30.910
  • Transformed into sons and daughters of god, that we're
  • 00:05:30.910 --> 00:05:34.414
  • Being transformed into the image of this love.
  • 00:05:34.414 --> 00:05:37.016
  • Look at what he says in verse 18, 2 corinthians 3.
  • 00:05:37.016 --> 00:05:40.052
  • "but we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the
  • 00:05:40.052 --> 00:05:43.122
  • Glory of the lord, we are changed," or transformed,
  • 00:05:43.122 --> 00:05:48.127
  • "we are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even
  • 00:05:48.127 --> 00:05:53.332
  • As by the spirit of the lord."
  • 00:05:53.332 --> 00:05:54.700
  • See, the holy spirit is responsible for transforming us
  • 00:05:54.700 --> 00:05:58.471
  • From the inside out.
  • 00:05:58.471 --> 00:06:00.473
  • Wherever you are now, don't expect to be that same way
  • 00:06:00.473 --> 00:06:03.709
  • Next year.
  • 00:06:03.709 --> 00:06:06.078
  • And you're being transformed in your everyday living.
  • 00:06:06.078 --> 00:06:10.716
  • Not coming to church, coming to church helps, but coming to
  • 00:06:10.716 --> 00:06:14.187
  • Church is where we get built up.
  • 00:06:14.187 --> 00:06:18.858
  • We come to church to get built up.
  • 00:06:18.858 --> 00:06:21.427
  • Our everyday living is the process of being transformed.
  • 00:06:21.427 --> 00:06:26.866
  • Through the stuff you have to confront, through the
  • 00:06:26.866 --> 00:06:29.302
  • Conversations you have, through the hurt, the pain, the issues
  • 00:06:29.302 --> 00:06:32.638
  • Of life.
  • 00:06:32.638 --> 00:06:33.973
  • Then he comes in, takes advantage of all of the issues
  • 00:06:33.973 --> 00:06:37.343
  • Of life, and in your living he starts transforming you.
  • 00:06:37.343 --> 00:06:41.547
  • You cuss somebody out, now you don't say nothing.
  • 00:06:41.547 --> 00:06:44.183
  • You used to not say nothing, now you say, "i bless you."
  • 00:06:44.183 --> 00:06:46.886
  • He's transforming you.
  • 00:06:46.886 --> 00:06:48.554
  • He's doing that.
  • 00:06:48.554 --> 00:06:49.889
  • You don't know why you're doing that, but he's in you changing
  • 00:06:49.889 --> 00:06:53.025
  • Your mind about stuff, working on your desire to wanna do what
  • 00:06:53.025 --> 00:06:57.697
  • You didn't used to want to do.
  • 00:06:57.697 --> 00:07:00.099
  • And you need to pause for a moment and celebrate.
  • 00:07:00.099 --> 00:07:03.736
  • Look how far he's brought you from.
  • 00:07:03.736 --> 00:07:07.807
  • You're not there yet, none of us are, but you are being
  • 00:07:07.807 --> 00:07:11.511
  • Transformed, praise god.
  • 00:07:11.511 --> 00:07:19.452
  • And we're here this morning to be built up, to walk out of here
  • 00:07:19.452 --> 00:07:25.825
  • And say, "yeah, i'm getting ready to leave and maybe i have
  • 00:07:25.825 --> 00:07:28.427
  • A flash--flat tire outside.
  • 00:07:28.427 --> 00:07:30.263
  • But you know what?
  • 00:07:30.263 --> 00:07:31.631
  • I respond to that differently than i than i did before.
  • 00:07:31.631 --> 00:07:35.968
  • I am being transformed.
  • 00:07:35.968 --> 00:07:38.671
  • I am being changed.
  • 00:07:38.671 --> 00:07:41.107
  • He's working on my desire.
  • 00:07:41.107 --> 00:07:43.075
  • I don't desire the evil i used to desire."
  • 00:07:43.075 --> 00:07:50.516
  • You good, man.
  • 00:07:50.516 --> 00:07:51.951
  • You gonna be all right.
  • 00:07:51.951 --> 00:07:53.286
  • So this is why he says, "don't compare yourself amongst
  • 00:07:53.286 --> 00:07:55.321
  • Yourself," because you're comparing your stage's
  • 00:07:55.321 --> 00:07:58.291
  • Transformation, maybe with somebody else's stage of
  • 00:07:58.291 --> 00:08:00.993
  • Transformation, and that's not wise.
  • 00:08:00.993 --> 00:08:03.930
  • You ain't been transforming as long as they have.
  • 00:08:03.930 --> 00:08:10.102
  • You just started your transformation.
  • 00:08:10.102 --> 00:08:13.739
  • So you still going home doing, you know--you gotta have
  • 00:08:13.739 --> 00:08:17.076
  • A help--a little mad dog gotta help you calm down a little bit,
  • 00:08:17.076 --> 00:08:19.278
  • You know.
  • 00:08:19.278 --> 00:08:20.613
  • You'll be alright after a while but, you know, you still need
  • 00:08:20.613 --> 00:08:22.348
  • A little sip every now and then to help you out.
  • 00:08:22.348 --> 00:08:24.350
  • Don't beat yourself up.
  • 00:08:24.350 --> 00:08:25.685
  • You'll be all right.
  • 00:08:25.685 --> 00:08:27.053
  • You'll learn that that bottle ain't got nothing in it that can
  • 00:08:27.053 --> 00:08:29.622
  • Help you like the holy ghost can help you and you're
  • 00:08:29.622 --> 00:08:32.592
  • Being transformed.
  • 00:08:32.592 --> 00:08:33.960
  • But how can every people--how can people ever get to a certain
  • 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:36.495
  • Place if they're always been dogged out by church folks who
  • 00:08:36.495 --> 00:08:39.932
  • Somehow, in their mind, think that they have reached the
  • 00:08:39.932 --> 00:08:42.535
  • Ultimate of perfection and they still dripping water on the
  • 00:08:42.535 --> 00:08:45.905
  • Floor from the baptism service?
  • 00:08:45.905 --> 00:08:47.707
  • Just got baptized and want to try to tell somebody what
  • 00:08:47.707 --> 00:08:50.810
  • The bible say.
  • 00:08:50.810 --> 00:08:52.178
  • Shut your mouth up, go get a piece of pie and--
  • 00:08:52.178 --> 00:09:02.922
  • When we pay the debt of love, we release the power of god
  • 00:09:02.989 --> 00:09:08.427
  • For people to be transformed.
  • 00:09:08.427 --> 00:09:11.831
  • Wow.
  • 00:09:11.831 --> 00:09:13.165
  • How does that work? what does that look like?
  • 00:09:13.165 --> 00:09:15.868
  • Somebody who ain't even christian, somebody's not
  • 00:09:15.868 --> 00:09:17.236
  • Interested in changing, and they encounter you paying the debt of
  • 00:09:17.236 --> 00:09:21.874
  • Love and they pause.
  • 00:09:21.874 --> 00:09:25.978
  • They don't get to see that all the time.
  • 00:09:25.978 --> 00:09:28.748
  • And you showing up--i mean, when you spoke to them, they told you
  • 00:09:28.748 --> 00:09:31.217
  • To go somewhere and you said, "you know what?
  • 00:09:31.217 --> 00:09:33.452
  • I still got--i still owe you love.
  • 00:09:33.452 --> 00:09:36.389
  • I know you just cussed me out, but i still owe you love.
  • 00:09:36.389 --> 00:09:38.357
  • Don't do it no more, though, but i still owe you love.
  • 00:09:38.357 --> 00:09:42.862
  • I'm transforming, now.
  • 00:09:42.862 --> 00:09:44.230
  • Don't mess with me. i still--"
  • 00:09:44.230 --> 00:09:45.564
  • [laughing]
  • 00:09:45.564 --> 00:09:48.034
  • But you still owe him love.
  • 00:09:48.034 --> 00:09:52.171
  • I don't think we get that.
  • 00:09:52.171 --> 00:09:53.839
  • We've turned this love thing into this little goo goo,
  • 00:09:53.839 --> 00:09:56.409
  • Ga ga stuff.
  • 00:09:56.409 --> 00:09:58.911
  • It is what god uses to not only transform you, but by paying
  • 00:09:58.911 --> 00:10:04.050
  • That debt of love, you transform somebody else because they can
  • 00:10:04.050 --> 00:10:08.254
  • See god without no bible.
  • 00:10:08.254 --> 00:10:17.196
  • And you don't know how embarrassing it is when you see
  • 00:10:17.196 --> 00:10:19.398
  • Christians who don't even understand how to be christians
  • 00:10:19.398 --> 00:10:21.667
  • Because they think it's all about the performance and they
  • 00:10:21.667 --> 00:10:25.071
  • Miss an opportunity to release transformative power.
  • 00:10:25.071 --> 00:10:33.179
  • Because some things you do for people, they will never
  • 00:10:33.179 --> 00:10:35.581
  • Forget it.
  • 00:10:35.581 --> 00:10:38.584
  • They'll never forget it.
  • 00:10:38.584 --> 00:10:39.919
  • And that might be the one thing that turned their whole lives
  • 00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:43.089
  • Around when they can really see one day a real christian.
  • 00:10:43.089 --> 00:10:53.899
  • I'm telling y'all, this is the objective of god in our lives.
  • 00:10:53.966 --> 00:11:01.006
  • This is the one.
  • 00:11:01.006 --> 00:11:06.912
  • And i may have to preach this 20 more times before you get it,
  • 00:11:06.912 --> 00:11:09.782
  • But this is it.
  • 00:11:09.782 --> 00:11:12.151
  • Twenty twenty-four with all of the stuff that's happening
  • 00:11:12.151 --> 00:11:15.521
  • Around the world, god still needs people that will be
  • 00:11:15.521 --> 00:11:19.725
  • Committed to paying the debt of love.
  • 00:11:19.725 --> 00:11:25.064
  • [congregation applauding]
  • 00:11:25.064 --> 00:11:33.205
  • Some people think they have a right to be rude.
  • 00:11:37.243 --> 00:11:42.982
  • I know the narcissist does, but some people think they have
  • 00:11:42.982 --> 00:11:46.819
  • A right to be rude.
  • 00:11:46.819 --> 00:11:48.988
  • So, they automatically go into a restaurant and they think they
  • 00:11:48.988 --> 00:11:54.460
  • Have this right to be rude to the waitress, or rude to the
  • 00:11:54.460 --> 00:11:59.231
  • People that deliver your food, or rude to the people
  • 00:11:59.231 --> 00:12:01.567
  • Just--kenny, what is that you say?
  • 00:12:01.567 --> 00:12:05.971
  • How much it costs to be kind?
  • 00:12:05.971 --> 00:12:07.339
  • What was it?
  • 00:12:07.339 --> 00:12:10.509
  • "love and kindness is always in season."
  • 00:12:10.509 --> 00:12:14.680
  • Ain't that the truth?
  • 00:12:14.680 --> 00:12:18.083
  • But look at 1 peter chapter 3 and verse 10 in the nlt.
  • 00:12:18.083 --> 00:12:24.156
  • 1 peter chapter 3 and verse 10.
  • 00:12:24.156 --> 00:12:30.896
  • "for the scripture says," oh, this blesses me every time.
  • 00:12:30.896 --> 00:12:34.900
  • "if you want to enjoy life," how many of y'all want to
  • 00:12:34.900 --> 00:12:37.970
  • Enjoy life?
  • 00:12:37.970 --> 00:12:39.672
  • You want to enjoy life?
  • 00:12:39.672 --> 00:12:41.473
  • All right, let me show you how.
  • 00:12:41.473 --> 00:12:43.175
  • "if you wanna enjoy life and see many happy days," how many of
  • 00:12:43.175 --> 00:12:46.946
  • You wanna see many, many happy days?
  • 00:12:46.946 --> 00:12:51.550
  • Here we go.
  • 00:12:51.550 --> 00:12:53.085
  • "keep your tongue from speaking evil and keep your lips from
  • 00:12:53.085 --> 00:12:59.725
  • Telling lies."
  • 00:12:59.725 --> 00:13:05.164
  • How many of you still wanna enjoy--"keep your tongue from
  • 00:13:05.164 --> 00:13:13.539
  • Speaking evil and your lips from telling lies."
  • 00:13:13.539 --> 00:13:17.309
  • That's got to be a part of the transformation.
  • 00:13:17.309 --> 00:13:19.111
  • Now, listen, ain't nobody that yet perfect.
  • 00:13:19.111 --> 00:13:22.114
  • Ain't nobody that yet perfect at all.
  • 00:13:22.114 --> 00:13:25.184
  • Some people--me and taffi were joaning yesterday, just joaning.
  • 00:13:25.184 --> 00:13:29.121
  • And i said something, made her fell out of the chair.
  • 00:13:29.121 --> 00:13:31.824
  • And she woke up this morning laughing about it.
  • 00:13:31.824 --> 00:13:34.159
  • She almost fell out of the car seat again, laughing about it.
  • 00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:36.228
  • She said, "i can't believe you said that."
  • 00:13:36.228 --> 00:13:37.596
  • I said, "i can't either, baby."
  • 00:13:37.596 --> 00:13:41.066
  • I said, "but don't play with me.
  • 00:13:41.066 --> 00:13:42.468
  • I'm collipark," you know.
  • 00:13:42.468 --> 00:13:44.069
  • All we used to do is joan.
  • 00:13:44.069 --> 00:13:45.804
  • Don't be trying to joan, now.
  • 00:13:45.804 --> 00:13:47.172
  • We all--we just joaned out.
  • 00:13:47.172 --> 00:13:48.507
  • Some of y'all don't know what joaning is, but we--i used to
  • 00:13:48.507 --> 00:13:51.076
  • Joan you until you cry.
  • 00:13:51.076 --> 00:13:55.447
  • But if i want to see long days and happy life, i got to--this
  • 00:13:55.447 --> 00:14:02.254
  • Will determine that.
  • 00:14:02.254 --> 00:14:06.392
  • This will determine that.
  • 00:14:06.392 --> 00:14:07.726
  • I did a little small teaching this week on how complaining
  • 00:14:07.726 --> 00:14:14.033
  • Rewires your brain.
  • 00:14:14.033 --> 00:14:17.970
  • It's the part of the brain where your intellect,
  • 00:14:17.970 --> 00:14:20.940
  • Your intelligence, is; your decision making.
  • 00:14:20.940 --> 00:14:24.310
  • And it rewires your brain to complain more and it shrinks
  • 00:14:24.310 --> 00:14:33.485
  • That area where your intelligence is.
  • 00:14:33.485 --> 00:14:35.921
  • The more and more you complain, rewires your brain, you complain
  • 00:14:35.921 --> 00:14:39.625
  • Even more.
  • 00:14:39.625 --> 00:14:40.960
  • And you look around, you complaining about everything.
  • 00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:42.895
  • And it's also bad for your health.
  • 00:14:42.895 --> 00:14:44.229
  • As you start complaining, it releases more cortisol,
  • 00:14:44.229 --> 00:14:47.366
  • Increases your blood pressure, increases your blood sugar,
  • 00:14:47.366 --> 00:14:52.838
  • All because you're complaining.
  • 00:14:52.838 --> 00:14:55.874
  • You just need to shut up.
  • 00:14:55.874 --> 00:14:57.676
  • You need to get the anointing of shut up.
  • 00:14:57.676 --> 00:15:04.283
  • Somebody need to write a song.
  • 00:15:04.283 --> 00:15:05.651
  • "you need to shut up."
  • 00:15:05.651 --> 00:15:09.888
  • This is big time right here.
  • 00:15:09.888 --> 00:15:12.891
  • I was explaining to my younger daughter.
  • 00:15:12.891 --> 00:15:14.626
  • She was telling me some things and i said, "baby, there's
  • 00:15:14.626 --> 00:15:16.662
  • A connection between your words and your brain."
  • 00:15:16.662 --> 00:15:21.467
  • I said, "now notice, when you feel like what you described,
  • 00:15:21.467 --> 00:15:24.069
  • Back up and see what you've been saying."
  • 00:15:24.069 --> 00:15:26.538
  • She said, "yeah, dad.
  • 00:15:26.538 --> 00:15:28.474
  • Yeah."
  • 00:15:28.474 --> 00:15:29.808
  • And we don't wanna do that.
  • 00:15:29.808 --> 00:15:31.176
  • But see, that's a part of your transformation.
  • 00:15:31.176 --> 00:15:33.345
  • And i'm not up here saying this to try to bring condemnation to
  • 00:15:33.345 --> 00:15:37.082
  • Anybody because we all still working there.
  • 00:15:37.082 --> 00:15:42.087
  • And what god is looking at is that the holy spirit is still
  • 00:15:42.087 --> 00:15:45.024
  • Working there with you.
  • 00:15:45.024 --> 00:15:46.358
  • I don't want nobody in here to be feeling, "well, you know,
  • 00:15:46.358 --> 00:15:49.928
  • That's just me."
  • 00:15:49.928 --> 00:15:51.263
  • Yeah, me too.
  • 00:15:51.263 --> 00:15:52.631
  • We still working now.
  • 00:15:52.631 --> 00:15:53.966
  • But here's the good news: you're gonna get there.
  • 00:15:53.966 --> 00:15:56.001
  • Because god has made a commitment that if he started
  • 00:15:56.001 --> 00:15:59.171
  • The work, he gonna continue to work, he gonna finish the work.
  • 00:15:59.171 --> 00:16:02.741
  • And one day you gonna get up and find that instead of complaining
  • 00:16:02.741 --> 00:16:07.379
  • 90% of the time, you complaining 1.5%.
  • 00:16:07.379 --> 00:16:14.219
  • You have to realize this is a journey.
  • 00:16:14.219 --> 00:16:24.263
  • Let me read 1 peter again.
  • 00:16:27.833 --> 00:16:29.168
  • It got quiet after i read that 1 peter 3:10.
  • 00:16:29.168 --> 00:16:32.071
  • Let me read it again, see if we get anything else out of it.
  • 00:16:32.071 --> 00:16:34.807
  • "for the scripture says, 'if you want to enjoy life,'" yes, "'and
  • 00:16:34.807 --> 00:16:38.911
  • You wanna see many happy days,'" yes, "'keep your tongue from
  • 00:16:38.911 --> 00:16:43.248
  • Speaking evil.'"
  • 00:16:43.248 --> 00:16:45.084
  • And speaking evil is speaking about others in an evil way.
  • 00:16:45.084 --> 00:16:48.687
  • "'and keep your lip from--keep your lips from telling lies.'"
  • 00:16:48.687 --> 00:16:52.024
  • You know, there's a lying spirit in the church.
  • 00:16:52.024 --> 00:16:55.694
  • There's a lying spirit in the church.
  • 00:16:55.694 --> 00:16:57.162
  • Somebody say, "why you ain't working there no more?"
  • 00:16:57.162 --> 00:16:59.531
  • "the lord move me."
  • 00:16:59.531 --> 00:17:00.899
  • The real truth is you got fired.
  • 00:17:00.899 --> 00:17:09.041
  • Tell the truth.
  • 00:17:09.041 --> 00:17:14.246
  • Let me move on cause something.
  • 00:17:14.246 --> 00:17:22.020
  • The question is, are we running short on the currency of love?
  • 00:17:22.020 --> 00:17:28.927
  • Yeah, we get frustrated with one another.
  • 00:17:28.927 --> 00:17:33.632
  • Yeah, we disagree with one another.
  • 00:17:33.632 --> 00:17:37.903
  • Yeah.
  • 00:17:37.903 --> 00:17:39.271
  • And in some cases, we simply don't like being around
  • 00:17:39.271 --> 00:17:42.007
  • One another.
  • 00:17:42.007 --> 00:17:45.477
  • However, john chapter 13, verse 35 in nlt, why must we allow the
  • 00:17:45.477 --> 00:17:53.652
  • Holy spirit to constantly transform us out of
  • 00:17:53.652 --> 00:17:56.488
  • These positions?
  • 00:17:56.488 --> 00:17:59.791
  • He says, verse 35, "your love for one another will prove to
  • 00:17:59.791 --> 00:18:04.863
  • The world that you are my disciples."
  • 00:18:04.863 --> 00:18:09.701
  • There's no other proof that the world is going to take,
  • 00:18:09.701 --> 00:18:17.543
  • Except this love.
  • 00:18:17.543 --> 00:18:19.611
  • Not how many times you pray for people, not that you pray for
  • 00:18:19.611 --> 00:18:22.214
  • Someone and something happened, not because you prophesized
  • 00:18:22.214 --> 00:18:24.183
  • Their middle name.
  • 00:18:24.183 --> 00:18:25.951
  • No other circus act is going to convince them that you are
  • 00:18:25.951 --> 00:18:30.589
  • God's disciples.
  • 00:18:30.589 --> 00:18:31.957
  • He says, "i need you to pay this debt of love because i need this
  • 00:18:31.957 --> 00:18:35.661
  • World, this unsafe world that i died for, i wanna transform them
  • 00:18:35.661 --> 00:18:41.667
  • But they don't believe.
  • 00:18:41.667 --> 00:18:43.035
  • So, i--as you pay the debt of love, that's gonna be proof that
  • 00:18:43.035 --> 00:18:48.407
  • You're my disciples."
  • 00:18:48.407 --> 00:18:51.310
  • Look at what jesus said about it in john 17:25 and 26 in the nlt.
  • 00:18:51.310 --> 00:18:56.081
  • John 17:25 and 26 in the nlt.
  • 00:18:56.081 --> 00:18:58.850
  • This is pretty--this is interesting, in 25 and 26.
  • 00:18:58.850 --> 00:19:01.486
  • He said, "o righteous father, the world doesn't know you,"
  • 00:19:01.486 --> 00:19:06.225
  • So that's where the issue is.
  • 00:19:06.225 --> 00:19:07.559
  • The world doesn't know him.
  • 00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:09.561
  • And then he says, "but i do."
  • 00:19:09.561 --> 00:19:13.131
  • And so, jesus said, "i know him.
  • 00:19:13.131 --> 00:19:14.700
  • The world doesn't know you, but i do."
  • 00:19:14.700 --> 00:19:16.868
  • And he says, "and these disciples know you sent me,"
  • 00:19:16.868 --> 00:19:20.272
  • Because they know i know you and they see i know you because they
  • 00:19:20.272 --> 00:19:25.510
  • See the love that i have.
  • 00:19:25.510 --> 00:19:27.212
  • And they know that you sent me because they--what they see
  • 00:19:27.212 --> 00:19:30.282
  • In me.
  • 00:19:30.282 --> 00:19:32.251
  • Next verse.
  • 00:19:32.251 --> 00:19:33.752
  • "i have revealed you to them, and i will continue to do so."
  • 00:19:33.752 --> 00:19:40.225
  • How do i know it was love?
  • 00:19:40.225 --> 00:19:41.593
  • "then your love for me will be in them, and i will be in them."
  • 00:19:41.593 --> 00:19:50.402
  • Wow.
  • 00:19:50.402 --> 00:19:51.770
  • I don't know what we told church--what we were told that
  • 00:19:51.770 --> 00:19:54.072
  • Church was, i don't know what, you know, who convinced you
  • 00:19:54.072 --> 00:19:57.609
  • That, you know, this is a part of your life,
  • 00:19:57.609 --> 00:19:59.578
  • You need to be there.
  • 00:19:59.578 --> 00:20:00.912
  • But i am telling you right now, it's more than gimme, gimme,
