♪ music ♪pastor john hagee: the third beatitude,
00:00:14.775 --> 00:00:15.409
Third beatitude, "blessed are the meek:
00:00:15.476 --> 00:00:16.110
"blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit
00:00:16.177 --> 00:00:16.944
For they shall inherit the earth."
00:00:17.011 --> 00:00:19.113
The earth." doesn't that sound absurd
00:00:19.180 --> 00:00:20.614
Doesn't that sound absurd in our generation?
00:00:20.681 --> 00:00:22.450
In our generation? what is "meekness"?
00:00:22.516 --> 00:00:24.151
What is "meekness"? the meek are those who quietly
00:00:24.218 --> 00:00:25.753
The meek are those who quietly submit to the authority
00:00:25.820 --> 00:00:27.088
Submit to the authority of god.
00:00:27.154 --> 00:00:28.889
Of god. the meek are those who follow
00:00:28.956 --> 00:00:31.125
The meek are those who follow his directions and comply
00:00:31.192 --> 00:00:33.794
His directions and comply with his designs.
00:00:33.861 --> 00:00:35.763
With his designs. and they are gentle toward
00:00:35.830 --> 00:00:37.431
And they are gentle toward men.
00:00:37.498 --> 00:00:38.165
Men. that's where the word
00:00:38.232 --> 00:00:39.033
That's where the word "gentlemen" comes from.
00:00:39.100 --> 00:00:41.469
"gentlemen" comes from. the meek are god's
00:00:41.535 --> 00:00:42.937
The meek are god's gentlemen on earth.
00:00:43.003 --> 00:00:44.472
Gentlemen on earth. they're not weak;
00:00:44.538 --> 00:00:45.873
They're not weak; they're meek.
00:00:45.940 --> 00:00:47.108
They're meek. the meek have warm hearts,
00:00:47.174 --> 00:00:49.710
The meek have warm hearts, not hot heads.
00:00:49.777 --> 00:00:51.278
Not hot heads. there's a difference.
00:00:51.345 --> 00:00:52.480
There's a difference. [that's right.]
00:00:52.546 --> 00:00:53.114
[that's right.] meekness is the opposite of
00:00:53.180 --> 00:00:54.415
Meekness is the opposite of violence.
00:00:54.482 --> 00:00:55.516
Violence. americans have rejected
00:00:55.583 --> 00:00:57.017
Americans have rejected meekness as a path to
00:00:57.084 --> 00:00:58.719
Meekness as a path to happiness and have inherited
00:00:58.786 --> 00:01:00.955
Happiness and have inherited a whirlwind of violence.
00:01:01.021 --> 00:01:03.357
A whirlwind of violence. our rejection of meekness
00:01:03.424 --> 00:01:05.593
Our rejection of meekness has opened the door to hatred,
00:01:05.659 --> 00:01:07.795
Has opened the door to hatred, to envy.
00:01:07.862 --> 00:01:08.929
To envy. it's opened the door to
00:01:08.996 --> 00:01:10.131
It's opened the door to resentment,
00:01:10.197 --> 00:01:11.265
Resentment, the door to divorce,
00:01:11.332 --> 00:01:12.800
The door to divorce, of abortion.
00:01:12.867 --> 00:01:14.101
Of abortion. abortion is the execution of
00:01:14.168 --> 00:01:15.703
Abortion is the execution of a child on the altar of
00:01:15.769 --> 00:01:17.838
A child on the altar of the god of self.
00:01:17.905 --> 00:01:19.773
The god of self. our rejection of meekness
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:21.142
Our rejection of meekness as a nation has led us to
00:01:21.208 --> 00:01:23.244
As a nation has led us to the defunding of police
00:01:23.310 --> 00:01:25.146
The defunding of police and the releasing of criminals
00:01:25.212 --> 00:01:26.847
And the releasing of criminals without bail or bond.
00:01:26.914 --> 00:01:28.616
Without bail or bond. this is madness!
00:01:28.682 --> 00:01:30.017
This is madness! it needs to stop!
00:01:30.084 --> 00:01:31.585
It needs to stop! we need to rehire our police
00:01:31.652 --> 00:01:34.822
We need to rehire our police and bless them.
00:01:34.889 --> 00:01:37.158
And bless them. (applause)
00:01:37.224 --> 00:01:40.995
(applause) does meekness mean that we are
00:01:41.061 --> 00:01:42.630
Does meekness mean that we are to allow the aggressive
00:01:42.696 --> 00:01:44.932
To allow the aggressive to run over us?
00:01:44.999 --> 00:01:45.866
To run over us? absolutely not.
00:01:45.933 --> 00:01:47.701
Absolutely not. absolutely not.
00:01:47.768 --> 00:01:49.670
Absolutely not. meekness is speaking the truth
00:01:49.737 --> 00:01:51.539
Meekness is speaking the truth in love.
00:01:51.605 --> 00:01:52.806

A house of prayer; but you have made it a den
00:06:51.505 --> 00:06:52.606
But you have made it a den of thieves."

Cold-blood murder after the other on television

The other on television saute'ed with a few rapes
00:15:42.569 --> 00:15:44.337
Saute'ed with a few rapes in between,
00:15:44.404 --> 00:15:45.271
In between, mixed with hatred,

Lust and greed. you're not going to feel well.

[amen.] when you come to church
00:16:17.670 --> 00:16:18.371
When you come to church on sunday and our choir sings
00:16:18.438 --> 00:16:20.840
On sunday and our choir sings a delicious song of zion
00:16:20.907 --> 00:16:22.876
A delicious song of zion that, for centuries,
00:16:22.942 --> 00:16:24.310

Hearts of humanity, that anointed music is
00:16:27.781 --> 00:16:29.349
That anointed music is the stairways to the stars
00:16:29.416 --> 00:16:31.284
The stairways to the stars by which men have climbed
00:16:31.351 --> 00:16:32.852
By which men have climbed into the presence of god.

[amen.] if you turn up your nose,
00:16:35.655 --> 00:16:38.358
If you turn up your nose, it does not appeal to you
00:16:38.425 --> 00:16:39.826
It does not appeal to you because your soul is sick on
00:16:39.893 --> 00:16:42.662
Because your soul is sick on satan's junk food you've eaten
00:16:42.729 --> 00:16:44.731
Satan's junk food you've eaten all week long,
00:16:44.798 --> 00:16:46.633
All week long, you are repulsed by the bread

It's never stale. (applause)
00:16:56.076 --> 00:17:00.246
(applause) when the preacher proclaims
00:17:00.313 --> 00:17:01.448
When the preacher proclaims the pure word of god,
00:17:01.514 --> 00:17:02.549
The pure word of god, the sincere milk of the word
00:17:02.615 --> 00:17:04.384
The sincere milk of the word for babes,
00:17:04.451 --> 00:17:05.251
For babes, meat for men,
00:17:05.318 --> 00:17:06.419
Meat for men, you are not interested.
00:17:06.486 --> 00:17:08.154
You are not interested. because when you go to church,
00:17:08.221 --> 00:17:09.823
Because when you go to church, satan will sit on your
00:17:09.889 --> 00:17:10.890
Satan will sit on your shoulder and say,
00:17:10.957 --> 00:17:11.991
Shoulder and say, "this sermon is too long.
00:17:12.058 --> 00:17:13.726
"this sermon is too long. it's too personal.
00:17:13.793 --> 00:17:14.828
It's too personal. it's too dry.
00:17:14.894 --> 00:17:16.096
It's too dry. it's too hard.
00:17:16.162 --> 00:17:17.263
It's too hard. it's too calvinistic.
00:17:17.330 --> 00:17:18.731
It's too calvinistic. it's too charismatic."
00:17:18.798 --> 00:17:19.999
It's too charismatic." listen.
00:17:20.066 --> 00:17:20.834

00:17:26.873 --> 00:17:28.341
You can't eat mental slop all week and feel like
00:17:28.408 --> 00:17:29.642
All week and feel like a saint on sunday.
00:17:29.709 --> 00:17:31.111
A saint on sunday. [that's right.]
00:17:31.177 --> 00:17:32.579
[that's right.] your lack of appetite for
00:17:32.645 --> 00:17:33.913
Your lack of appetite for spiritual things,
00:17:33.980 --> 00:17:35.148
Spiritual things, which are the basis of
00:17:35.215 --> 00:17:36.082
Which are the basis of happiness,
00:17:36.149 --> 00:17:36.749
Happiness, is not because you're
00:17:36.816 --> 00:17:37.951
Is not because you're too intellectual to accept
00:17:38.017 --> 00:17:39.853
Too intellectual to accept the gospel.
00:17:39.919 --> 00:17:40.553
The gospel. it means you're too
00:17:40.620 --> 00:17:41.521
It means you're too spiritually dead.
00:17:41.588 --> 00:17:43.723
Spiritually dead. you want no food.
00:17:43.790 --> 00:17:44.791
You want no food. you crave no water.
00:17:44.858 --> 00:17:46.159
You crave no water. it's possible to spiritually
00:17:46.226 --> 00:17:47.961
It's possible to spiritually die before you physically die.
00:17:48.027 --> 00:17:50.697
Die before you physically die. [come on. come on.]
00:17:50.763 --> 00:17:51.998
[come on. come on.] think about that
00:17:52.065 --> 00:17:52.699
Think about that for just a second.
00:17:52.765 --> 00:17:53.933
For just a second. in the bible,
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:54.734
In the bible, the rich farmer said,
00:17:54.801 --> 00:17:56.402
The rich farmer said, "i will build bigger barns,"
00:17:56.469 --> 00:17:58.605

Little resumé, the bible says,
00:18:02.542 --> 00:18:03.209
The bible says, "god said, 'you fool!
00:18:03.276 --> 00:18:05.945
"god said, 'you fool! this night your soul
00:18:06.012 --> 00:18:07.480
This night your soul is required of you.'"
00:18:07.547 --> 00:18:09.682
Is required of you.'" he did not say he died
00:18:09.749 --> 00:18:11.217
He did not say he died that night.
00:18:11.284 --> 00:18:12.919
That night. it just said his soul was
00:18:12.986 --> 00:18:14.988
It just said his soul was required of him that night.
00:18:15.054 --> 00:18:18.625
Required of him that night. he may have lived another
00:18:18.691 --> 00:18:19.626
He may have lived another 40 years.
00:18:19.692 --> 00:18:20.426

And made another ten million dollars.
00:18:26.299 --> 00:18:27.634
Ten million dollars. but when he closed his eyes
00:18:27.700 --> 00:18:29.068
But when he closed his eyes in death,
00:18:29.135 --> 00:18:29.702
In death, he opened into a blazing
00:18:29.769 --> 00:18:31.471
He opened into a blazing inferno.
00:18:31.538 --> 00:18:32.672
Inferno. pharaoh hardened his heart
00:18:32.739 --> 00:18:33.973
Pharaoh hardened his heart and said,
00:18:34.040 --> 00:18:34.707
And said, "who is the lord that i should
00:18:34.774 --> 00:18:37.243
"who is the lord that i should obey him...?"
00:18:37.310 --> 00:18:38.478
Obey him...?" he found out.
00:18:38.545 --> 00:18:39.646
He found out. [yes, he did.]

He led his choice troops in hot pursuit of the jewish

In hot pursuit of the jewish people as they were at
00:18:44.717 --> 00:18:46.119
People as they were at the red sea.
00:18:46.186 --> 00:18:47.787
The red sea. they charged between

They charged between the towering walls of water.
00:18:49.189 --> 00:18:50.957
The towering walls of water. those towering walls of water
00:18:51.024 --> 00:18:52.625
Those towering walls of water collapsed.

Collapsed. pharaoh's bloated corpse
00:18:53.459 --> 00:18:54.961
Pharaoh's bloated corpse floated to the shore.

Floated to the shore. his dazzling rings glisten
00:18:56.329 --> 00:18:58.331
His dazzling rings glisten in the sultry egyptian sun.
00:18:58.398 --> 00:19:00.600
In the sultry egyptian sun. the most powerful man

The most powerful man on the earth was reduced to

Esau sought repentance and he found it not.
00:19:10.710 --> 00:19:12.212
And he found it not. see pitiful king saul coming

From the cave of the witch of en dor.
00:19:15.415 --> 00:19:18.051
Of en dor. he had asked the prophet
00:19:18.117 --> 00:19:19.085
He had asked the prophet of god for god's direction,
00:19:19.152 --> 00:19:21.854
Of god for god's direction, and the prophet of god did not
00:19:21.921 --> 00:19:23.189
And the prophet of god did not give it to him.
00:19:23.256 --> 00:19:25.191
Give it to him. and so he went to a witch,
00:19:25.258 --> 00:19:27.827
And so he went to a witch, for him, for king saul,
00:19:27.894 --> 00:19:29.562

The prophet, he said, "the lord hath departed from
