  • 00:11:18.705 --> 00:11:20.974
  • And not under the blood. did you change?
  • 00:11:21.041 --> 00:11:23.777
  • Did you change? did you change?
  • 00:11:23.844 --> 00:11:25.212
  • Did you change? 2 corinthians 5:17, paul writes,
  • 00:11:25.278 --> 00:11:27.848
  • 2 corinthians 5:17, paul writes, "if anyone is in christ,
  • 00:11:27.914 --> 00:11:29.316
  • "if anyone is in christ, he is a new creation.
  • 00:11:29.382 --> 00:11:31.685
  • He is a new creation. old things have passed away
  • 00:11:31.752 --> 00:11:33.453
  • Old things have passed away and behold all things
  • 00:11:33.520 --> 00:11:35.255
  • And behold all things have become new."
  • 00:11:35.322 --> 00:11:37.491
  • Have become new." think about that.
  • 00:11:37.557 --> 00:11:38.925
  • Think about that. jesus gave us a parable.
  • 00:11:38.992 --> 00:11:40.260
  • Jesus gave us a parable. it's the parable of the wheat
  • 00:11:40.327 --> 00:11:41.728
  • It's the parable of the wheat and the tares to demonstrate
  • 00:11:41.795 --> 00:11:43.463
  • And the tares to demonstrate how the saved and the unsaved
  • 00:11:43.530 --> 00:11:45.332
  • How the saved and the unsaved coexist in the same field.
  • 00:11:45.398 --> 00:11:48.168
  • Coexist in the same field. call it the same church.
  • 00:11:48.235 --> 00:11:50.103
  • Call it the same church. the unsaved church members
  • 00:11:50.170 --> 00:11:51.772
  • The unsaved church members jesus called tares.
  • 00:11:51.838 --> 00:11:54.040
  • Jesus called tares. they look like wheat,
  • 00:11:54.107 --> 00:11:57.344
  • They look like wheat, they talk like wheat,
  • 00:11:57.410 --> 00:11:59.513
  • They talk like wheat, they associate with wheat
  • 00:11:59.579 --> 00:12:00.680
  • They associate with wheat but they're not.
  • 00:12:00.747 --> 00:12:02.382
  • But they're not. they're religious and lost.
  • 00:12:02.449 --> 00:12:04.351
  • They're religious and lost. they're counterfeit christians.
  • 00:12:04.417 --> 00:12:05.919
  • They're counterfeit christians. how do you tell the tares
  • 00:12:05.986 --> 00:12:07.254
  • How do you tell the tares from the wheat,
  • 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:08.021
  • From the wheat, the counterfeit
  • 00:12:08.088 --> 00:12:09.489
  • The counterfeit from the consecrated,
  • 00:12:09.556 --> 00:12:10.290
  • From the consecrated, and the artificial
  • 00:12:10.357 --> 00:12:11.458
  • And the artificial from the actual?
  • 00:12:11.525 --> 00:12:12.659
  • From the actual? not by appearance.
  • 00:12:12.726 --> 00:12:14.895
  • Not by appearance. if you've ever walked
  • 00:12:14.961 --> 00:12:15.962
  • If you've ever walked through a wheat field,
  • 00:12:16.029 --> 00:12:17.831
  • Through a wheat field, it's almost impossible
  • 00:12:17.898 --> 00:12:19.432
  • It's almost impossible to tell the difference
  • 00:12:19.499 --> 00:12:20.400
  • To tell the difference between wheat and tares.
  • 00:12:20.467 --> 00:12:24.304
  • Between wheat and tares. they look alike.
  • 00:12:24.371 --> 00:12:26.173
  • They look alike. what is the difference
  • 00:12:26.239 --> 00:12:26.807
  • What is the difference between satan,
  • 00:12:26.873 --> 00:12:28.642
  • Between satan, what he believes,
  • 00:12:28.708 --> 00:12:29.776
  • What he believes, and some church members believe?
  • 00:12:29.843 --> 00:12:33.713
  • And some church members believe? church members believe
  • 00:12:33.780 --> 00:12:34.548
  • Church members believe the bible is true,
  • 00:12:34.614 --> 00:12:36.750
  • The bible is true, the devil does too.
  • 00:12:36.817 --> 00:12:38.752
  • The devil does too. remember, when he was with jesus
  • 00:12:38.819 --> 00:12:40.187
  • Remember, when he was with jesus in the wilderness,
  • 00:12:40.253 --> 00:12:41.855
  • In the wilderness, he was quoting
  • 00:12:41.922 --> 00:12:42.422
  • He was quoting the scripture to jesus.
  • 00:12:42.489 --> 00:12:44.524
  • The scripture to jesus. think about it.
  • 00:12:44.591 --> 00:12:45.926
  • Think about it. satan knows jesus
  • 00:12:45.992 --> 00:12:47.260
  • Satan knows jesus is the son of god.
  • 00:12:47.327 --> 00:12:48.995
  • Is the son of god. satan knows there's a
  • 00:12:49.062 --> 00:12:50.130
  • Satan knows there's a heaven and a hell.
  • 00:12:50.197 --> 00:12:52.165
  • Heaven and a hell. satan knows that when jesus
  • 00:12:52.232 --> 00:12:53.533
  • Satan knows that when jesus comes back to jerusalem,
  • 00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:55.602
  • Comes back to jerusalem, he's going to be
  • 00:12:55.669 --> 00:12:57.037
  • He's going to be in the lake of fire.
  • 00:12:57.103 --> 00:12:59.639
  • In the lake of fire. satan has never
  • 00:12:59.706 --> 00:13:00.574
  • Satan has never confessed christ.
  • 00:13:00.640 --> 00:13:02.242
  • Confessed christ. that's the difference.
  • 00:13:02.309 --> 00:13:04.778
  • That's the difference. that's the difference.
  • 00:13:04.845 --> 00:13:06.646
  • That's the difference. have you?
  • 00:13:06.713 --> 00:13:08.949
  • Have you? have you?
  • 00:13:09.015 --> 00:13:10.750
  • Have you? if you haven't,
  • 00:13:10.817 --> 00:13:13.019
  • If you haven't, you're in real trouble with god.
  • 00:13:13.086 --> 00:13:15.889
  • You're in real trouble with god. the world view of those who
  • 00:13:15.956 --> 00:13:17.123
  • The world view of those who truly know god, listen
  • 00:13:17.190 --> 00:13:18.491
  • Truly know god, listen to saint paul's world view.
  • 00:13:18.558 --> 00:13:20.293
  • To saint paul's world view. saint paul writes
  • 00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:21.328
  • Saint paul writes in philippians 3:8-10,
  • 00:13:21.394 --> 00:13:25.265
  • In philippians 3:8-10, "ye doubtless i count
  • 00:13:25.332 --> 00:13:27.133
  • "ye doubtless i count all things loss for
  • 00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:28.702
  • All things loss for the excellency and the knowledge
  • 00:13:28.768 --> 00:13:30.470
  • The excellency and the knowledge of jesus christ my lord:
  • 00:13:30.537 --> 00:13:32.772
  • Of jesus christ my lord: for whom i have suffered
  • 00:13:32.839 --> 00:13:33.907
  • For whom i have suffered the loss of all things."
  • 00:13:33.974 --> 00:13:36.877
  • The loss of all things." now, that's not just hyperbole.
  • 00:13:36.943 --> 00:13:39.279
  • Now, that's not just hyperbole. if you know the life of paul,
  • 00:13:39.346 --> 00:13:41.047
  • If you know the life of paul, he lost it all serving the lord.
  • 00:13:41.114 --> 00:13:44.184
  • He lost it all serving the lord. "he suffered the loss
  • 00:13:44.251 --> 00:13:45.151
  • "he suffered the loss of all things and do not
  • 00:13:45.218 --> 00:13:46.786
  • Of all things and do not count them but dung,
  • 00:13:46.853 --> 00:13:50.056
  • Count them but dung, that i might win christ,
  • 00:13:50.123 --> 00:13:51.992
  • That i might win christ, and that i might know him."
  • 00:13:52.058 --> 00:13:54.060
  • And that i might know him." point, paul, the most brilliant
  • 00:13:54.127 --> 00:13:56.630
  • Point, paul, the most brilliant mind of the new testament
  • 00:13:56.696 --> 00:13:58.331
  • Mind of the new testament counted the world as a dung heap
  • 00:13:58.398 --> 00:14:01.635
  • Counted the world as a dung heap that he might know christ
  • 00:14:01.701 --> 00:14:03.770
  • That he might know christ and inherit eternal life.
  • 00:14:03.837 --> 00:14:06.506
  • And inherit eternal life. what normal person spends
  • 00:14:06.573 --> 00:14:08.575
  • What normal person spends his or her time nostalgically
  • 00:14:08.642 --> 00:14:11.711
  • His or her time nostalgically dreaming over a pile of...
  • 00:14:11.778 --> 00:14:15.615
  • [laughter]
  • 00:14:15.916 --> 00:14:18.251
  • Yeah.
  • 00:14:18.885 --> 00:14:19.286
  • Yeah. come on.
  • 00:14:19.352 --> 00:14:19.719
  • Come on. schlep.
  • 00:14:19.786 --> 00:14:20.153
  • [laughter]
  • 00:14:20.654 --> 00:14:22.489
  • Is this you?
  • 00:14:24.190 --> 00:14:26.393
  • Is this you? do you love the world?
  • 00:14:26.459 --> 00:14:27.394
  • Do you love the world? does it attract you?
  • 00:14:27.460 --> 00:14:28.295
  • Does it attract you? does it control you?
  • 00:14:28.361 --> 00:14:30.397
  • Does it control you? does it affect
  • 00:14:30.463 --> 00:14:31.765
  • Does it affect your church attendance?
  • 00:14:31.831 --> 00:14:33.900
  • Your church attendance? it certainly prevents you
  • 00:14:33.967 --> 00:14:35.001
  • It certainly prevents you from tithing, i'm sure.
  • 00:14:35.068 --> 00:14:37.437
  • From tithing, i'm sure. it's destroying your marriage,
  • 00:14:37.504 --> 00:14:38.638
  • It's destroying your marriage, it will destroy your children,
  • 00:14:38.705 --> 00:14:40.774
  • It will destroy your children, and it will eventually
  • 00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:41.942
  • And it will eventually destroy your soul.
  • 00:14:42.008 --> 00:14:43.743
  • Destroy your soul. paul shouts, "this world is
  • 00:14:43.810 --> 00:14:46.680
  • Paul shouts, "this world is a dung heap compared to what
  • 00:14:46.746 --> 00:14:50.317
  • A dung heap compared to what you're going to get in heaven

  • [applause]
  • 00:14:55.088 --> 00:15:01.294
  • The book of revelation
  • 00:15:01.628 --> 00:15:02.562
  • The book of revelation is very clear.
  • 00:15:02.629 --> 00:15:04.931
  • Is very clear. everything in this world
  • 00:15:04.998 --> 00:15:05.966
  • Everything in this world is going to be burned
  • 00:15:06.032 --> 00:15:07.734
  • Is going to be burned when we leave
  • 00:15:07.801 --> 00:15:09.369
  • When we leave and go to heaven,
  • 00:15:09.436 --> 00:15:12.973
  • And go to heaven, so that when we come back,
  • 00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:14.140
  • So that when we come back, it will be newly created
  • 00:15:14.207 --> 00:15:16.343
  • It will be newly created and be like the garden of eden,
  • 00:15:16.409 --> 00:15:18.845
  • And be like the garden of eden, but everything that you
  • 00:15:18.912 --> 00:15:20.814
  • But everything that you put together,

  • Put together, one day is going to be
  • 00:15:22.549 --> 00:15:23.750
  • One day is going to be a pile of trash.
  • 00:15:23.817 --> 00:15:27.487
  • A pile of trash. feast on that for a while,
  • 00:15:27.554 --> 00:15:30.323
  • Feast on that for a while, and then focus on the living god
  • 00:15:30.390 --> 00:15:32.625
  • And then focus on the living god because he is the answer,
  • 00:15:32.692 --> 00:15:34.861
  • Because he is the answer, he is the way.
  • 00:15:34.928 --> 00:15:36.663
  • He is the way. evidences that you know god,
  • 00:15:36.730 --> 00:15:38.431
  • Evidences that you know god, those who know god stand firm
  • 00:15:38.498 --> 00:15:40.100
  • Those who know god stand firm and take action.
  • 00:15:40.166 --> 00:15:42.235
  • And take action. daniel 11:32 says,

  • "the people who know god stand firm and take action."

  • Stand firm and take action." i'll say that again.
  • 00:15:48.742 --> 00:15:49.743
  • I'll say that again. the people who know god
  • 00:15:49.809 --> 00:15:51.611
  • The people who know god stand firm,
  • 00:15:51.678 --> 00:15:53.213
  • Stand firm, they stand their ground,
  • 00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:54.414
  • They stand their ground, and then they take action.
  • 00:15:54.481 --> 00:15:57.117
  • And then they take action. in 1978, when i was praying at

  • Jesus said in the bible, "salvation is of the jews."
  • 00:16:33.987 --> 00:16:36.790
  • "salvation is of the jews." it was time to stand firm
  • 00:16:36.856 --> 00:16:38.725
  • It was time to stand firm and take action.
  • 00:16:38.792 --> 00:16:41.928
  • And take action. when i had called for
