- He said, "i have a kingdom. it's not of this world."
- 00:14:09.131 --> 00:14:11.500

- What was he making the point? he was saying,
- 00:14:12.768 --> 00:14:13.202

- And the spiritually violent will take it by force,
- 00:14:28.050 --> 00:14:30.653
- Will take it by force, which means we have to define
- 00:14:30.719 --> 00:14:32.187
- Which means we have to define violence.
- 00:14:32.254 --> 00:14:34.023

- Of action? your business was going
- 00:14:49.772 --> 00:14:50.706
- Your business was going this way,
- 00:14:50.773 --> 00:14:51.540
- This way, and all of a sudden it started
- 00:14:51.607 --> 00:14:52.775
- And all of a sudden it started to go down.
- 00:14:52.841 --> 00:14:53.509
- To go down. what happened?
- 00:14:53.575 --> 00:14:54.143

- He does this in all kinds of ways.
- 00:14:58.781 --> 00:14:59.481

- He uses doubt to kill faith in your life.
- 00:15:04.053 --> 00:15:04.853
- In your life. and the bible says,
- 00:15:04.920 --> 00:15:05.454
- And the bible says, "without faith,
- 00:15:05.521 --> 00:15:06.155
- "without faith, it is impossible to please
- 00:15:06.221 --> 00:15:07.323

- Your past has been forgotten, and you're now white as snow.
- 00:15:15.364 --> 00:15:18.033

- 00:17:51.687 --> 00:17:52.421
- [come on.] if people don't know
- 00:17:52.488 --> 00:17:53.255
- If people don't know who you're for,
- 00:17:53.322 --> 00:17:54.289
- Who you're for, then god knows what you're
- 00:17:54.356 --> 00:17:55.524
- Then god knows what you're against.
- 00:17:55.591 --> 00:17:56.825
- Against. [amen.]
- 00:17:56.892 --> 00:17:57.893
- [amen.] because a friend of the world
- 00:17:57.960 --> 00:17:59.061
- Because a friend of the world is an enemy of god.
- 00:17:59.128 --> 00:18:00.596
- Is an enemy of god. [that's right.]
- 00:18:00.662 --> 00:18:01.396
- [that's right.] there's only two sides
- 00:18:01.463 --> 00:18:02.397
- There's only two sides in this conflict.
- 00:18:02.464 --> 00:18:03.265
- In this conflict. there's truth and a lie.
- 00:18:03.332 --> 00:18:06.368
- There's truth and a lie. and the bible says,
- 00:18:06.435 --> 00:18:06.869
- And the bible says, "all liars shall have their
- 00:18:06.935 --> 00:18:07.903
- "all liars shall have their part in the lake of fire."
- 00:18:07.970 --> 00:18:08.937
- Part in the lake of fire." there's the light
- 00:18:09.004 --> 00:18:10.005
- There's the light or there's darkness.
- 00:18:10.072 --> 00:18:11.707
- Or there's darkness. [amen.]
- 00:18:11.773 --> 00:18:12.774
- [amen.] people say, "well,
- 00:18:12.841 --> 00:18:13.342
- People say, "well, i don't want to be offensive."
- 00:18:13.408 --> 00:18:14.276
- I don't want to be offensive." i'm sorry.
- 00:18:14.343 --> 00:18:15.043
- I'm sorry. light is offensive.
- 00:18:15.110 --> 00:18:17.079
- Light is offensive. [that's right.]
- 00:18:17.146 --> 00:18:17.880
- [that's right.] walk into a teenagers room
- 00:18:17.946 --> 00:18:19.248
- Walk into a teenagers room at 6:00 in the morning,
- 00:18:19.314 --> 00:18:20.249
- At 6:00 in the morning, and turn it on;
- 00:18:20.315 --> 00:18:21.049
- And turn it on; they're offended.
- 00:18:21.116 --> 00:18:22.885
- They're offended. (laughter)
- 00:18:22.951 --> 00:18:25.687
- (laughter) why?
- 00:18:25.754 --> 00:18:26.054
- Why? because it disrupts everything
- 00:18:26.121 --> 00:18:27.356
- Because it disrupts everything that they were comfortable in.
- 00:18:27.422 --> 00:18:30.392
- That they were comfortable in. as the light of the world,
- 00:18:30.459 --> 00:18:31.560
- As the light of the world, when you walk into a world
- 00:18:31.627 --> 00:18:32.728
- When you walk into a world of darkness,
- 00:18:32.794 --> 00:18:33.328
- Of darkness, you are going to disrupt
- 00:18:33.395 --> 00:18:34.630
- You are going to disrupt people.
- 00:18:34.696 --> 00:18:35.330
- People. why?
- 00:18:35.397 --> 00:18:35.898
- Why? because you are shining and
- 00:18:35.964 --> 00:18:37.432
- Because you are shining and exposing and sending light
- 00:18:37.499 --> 00:18:39.568
- Exposing and sending light into an area that darkness
- 00:18:39.635 --> 00:18:40.869
- Into an area that darkness needs to flee.
- 00:18:40.936 --> 00:18:42.404
- Needs to flee. (applause)
- 00:18:42.471 --> 00:18:43.739
- (applause) there's the side of salt
- 00:18:43.805 --> 00:18:44.873
- There's the side of salt and there's the side
- 00:18:44.940 --> 00:18:45.607
- And there's the side of corruption.
- 00:18:45.674 --> 00:18:47.676
- Of corruption. corruption is running rampant
- 00:18:47.743 --> 00:18:49.311
- Corruption is running rampant in our world,
- 00:18:49.378 --> 00:18:50.012
- In our world, because the salt of the earth
- 00:18:50.078 --> 00:18:51.647
- Because the salt of the earth has lost its saltiness.
- 00:18:51.713 --> 00:18:54.216
- Has lost its saltiness. there's the side of good
- 00:18:54.283 --> 00:18:55.450
- There's the side of good and evil,
- 00:18:55.517 --> 00:18:56.318
- And evil, jesus christ or antichrist.
- 00:18:56.385 --> 00:18:58.654
- Jesus christ or antichrist. we don't get the option of
- 00:18:58.720 --> 00:18:59.755
- We don't get the option of sitting this one out,
- 00:18:59.821 --> 00:19:00.956
- Sitting this one out, because if we forfeit,
- 00:19:01.023 --> 00:19:02.524
- Because if we forfeit, we fail.
- 00:19:02.591 --> 00:19:03.392
- We fail. but if we raise the standard
- 00:19:03.458 --> 00:19:04.993
- But if we raise the standard of truth,
- 00:19:05.060 --> 00:19:05.761
- Of truth, then the battle belongs to
- 00:19:05.827 --> 00:19:07.763
- Then the battle belongs to the lord.
- 00:19:07.829 --> 00:19:08.931
- The lord. [yes.]
- 00:19:08.997 --> 00:19:09.464
- [yes.] child of god,
- 00:19:09.531 --> 00:19:10.399
- Child of god, we have to choose today that
- 00:19:10.465 --> 00:19:12.401
- We have to choose today that we are going to take a stand
- 00:19:12.467 --> 00:19:14.536
- We are going to take a stand and we're going to live for
- 00:19:14.603 --> 00:19:15.737
- And we're going to live for a god who has promised
- 00:19:15.804 --> 00:19:16.838
- A god who has promised he would never fail.
- 00:19:16.905 --> 00:19:18.740
- He would never fail. [amen.]
- 00:19:18.807 --> 00:19:19.541
- [amen.] because victory is not
- 00:19:19.608 --> 00:19:20.976
- Because victory is not measured in the moment;
- 00:19:21.043 --> 00:19:22.578
- Measured in the moment; victory is measured
- 00:19:22.644 --> 00:19:23.845
- Victory is measured in the movement.
- 00:19:23.912 --> 00:19:26.248
- In the movement. don't forget that.
- 00:19:26.315 --> 00:19:28.183
- Don't forget that. victory is not measured
- 00:19:28.250 --> 00:19:29.585
- Victory is not measured in the moment;
- 00:19:29.651 --> 00:19:30.686
- In the moment; victory is measured
- 00:19:30.752 --> 00:19:31.887
- Victory is measured in the movement.
- 00:19:31.954 --> 00:19:33.589
- In the movement. the bible says,
- 00:19:33.655 --> 00:19:34.456
- The bible says, "he who endures to the end."
- 00:19:34.523 --> 00:19:36.792
- "he who endures to the end." say that with me.
- 00:19:36.858 --> 00:19:37.759
- Say that with me. "he who endures to the end."
- 00:19:37.826 --> 00:19:41.530
- "he who endures to the end." it's the holy spirit's way
- 00:19:41.597 --> 00:19:43.065
- It's the holy spirit's way of saying,
- 00:19:43.131 --> 00:19:43.599
- Of saying, "just stick around and see
- 00:19:43.665 --> 00:19:45.434
- "just stick around and see what god will do."
- 00:19:45.500 --> 00:19:48.337
- What god will do." and one of the problems
- 00:19:48.403 --> 00:19:49.071
- And one of the problems that we have in our
- 00:19:49.137 --> 00:19:49.905
- That we have in our instant-gratification world
- 00:19:49.972 --> 00:19:51.740
- Instant-gratification world is we want everything
- 00:19:51.807 --> 00:19:52.908
- Is we want everything in the moment.
- 00:19:52.975 --> 00:19:54.943
- In the moment. go watch a sports game.
- 00:19:55.010 --> 00:19:56.378
- Go watch a sports game. how's it divided?
- 00:19:56.445 --> 00:19:57.246
- How's it divided? it's divided with a clock
- 00:19:57.312 --> 00:19:58.313
- It's divided with a clock into quarters.
- 00:19:58.380 --> 00:19:59.047
- Into quarters. and at the end,
- 00:19:59.114 --> 00:19:59.648
- And at the end, the buzzard rings,
- 00:19:59.715 --> 00:20:00.315
- The buzzard rings, and we want to know who
- 00:20:00.382 --> 00:20:01.250
- And we want to know who the winner is,
- 00:20:01.316 --> 00:20:02.884
- The winner is, because we want the instant
- 00:20:02.951 --> 00:20:03.952
- Because we want the instant gratification of seeing who
- 00:20:04.019 --> 00:20:05.420
- Gratification of seeing who is victorious and who's been
- 00:20:05.487 --> 00:20:07.222
- Is victorious and who's been defeated.
- 00:20:07.289 --> 00:20:08.557
- Defeated. but this is not how spiritual
- 00:20:08.624 --> 00:20:09.825
- But this is not how spiritual conflict works.
- 00:20:09.891 --> 00:20:11.827
- Conflict works. our warfare is against powers
- 00:20:11.893 --> 00:20:13.829
- Our warfare is against powers and principalities,
- 00:20:13.895 --> 00:20:14.930
- And principalities, and it's not in the moments
- 00:20:14.997 --> 00:20:16.531
- And it's not in the moments but it's in the movements.
- 00:20:16.598 --> 00:20:18.834
- But it's in the movements. this is why paul said,
- 00:20:18.900 --> 00:20:19.968
- This is why paul said, "endure hardness."
- 00:20:20.035 --> 00:20:22.437
- "endure hardness." you can't gage a spiritual
- 00:20:22.504 --> 00:20:23.872
- You can't gage a spiritual victory in the moment.
- 00:20:23.939 --> 00:20:25.440
- Victory in the moment. you just have to consider that
- 00:20:25.507 --> 00:20:26.975
- You just have to consider that you are enduring this moment
- 00:20:27.042 --> 00:20:28.577
- You are enduring this moment so that you can continue to
- 00:20:28.644 --> 00:20:29.845
- So that you can continue to see the kingdom of god pushed
- 00:20:29.911 --> 00:20:31.813
- See the kingdom of god pushed through the movement.
- 00:20:31.880 --> 00:20:34.383
- Through the movement. the reason why people don't
- 00:20:34.449 --> 00:20:36.151
- The reason why people don't move past the moment
- 00:20:36.218 --> 00:20:37.653
- Move past the moment is because they hide behind
- 00:20:37.719 --> 00:20:39.054
- Is because they hide behind their excuses.
- 00:20:39.121 --> 00:20:40.122
- Their excuses. they're waiting to be perfect.
- 00:20:40.188 --> 00:20:41.490
- They're waiting to be perfect. they're waiting for all of
- 00:20:41.556 --> 00:20:42.524
- They're waiting for all of the pieces to be in place.
- 00:20:42.591 --> 00:20:43.959
- The pieces to be in place. they're waiting to have
- 00:20:44.026 --> 00:20:44.826
- They're waiting to have the answer to every question.
- 00:20:44.893 --> 00:20:46.628
- The answer to every question. and none of that includes
- 00:20:46.695 --> 00:20:47.863
- And none of that includes faith.
- 00:20:47.929 --> 00:20:49.364
- Faith. [that's right.]
- 00:20:49.431 --> 00:20:50.232
- [that's right.] [wow!]
- 00:20:50.299 --> 00:20:50.899
- [wow!] faith is when you say,
- 00:20:50.966 --> 00:20:51.566
- Faith is when you say, "god, i believe in you too much
- 00:20:51.633 --> 00:20:53.235
- "god, i believe in you too much to let you down.
- 00:20:53.302 --> 00:20:54.303
- To let you down. i'm not going to let this
- 00:20:54.369 --> 00:20:55.203
- I'm not going to let this moment overcome me.
- 00:20:55.270 --> 00:20:56.772
- Moment overcome me. but i'm going to be more than
- 00:20:56.838 --> 00:20:57.939
- But i'm going to be more than a conqueror through christ in
- 00:20:58.006 --> 00:20:59.474
- A conqueror through christ in this moment and see what you
- 00:20:59.541 --> 00:21:01.043
- This moment and see what you can do for me in the future."
- 00:21:01.109 --> 00:21:04.012
- Can do for me in the future." (applause)
- 00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:07.582
- (applause) why?
- 00:21:07.649 --> 00:21:08.850
- Why? 1 john 5:4, it says,
- 00:21:08.917 --> 00:21:10.786
- 1 john 5:4, it says, "this is the victory that
- 00:21:10.852 --> 00:21:12.020
- "this is the victory that overcomes the world,
- 00:21:12.087 --> 00:21:13.388
- Overcomes the world, our faith."
- 00:21:13.455 --> 00:21:15.524
- Our faith." say that with me.
- 00:21:15.590 --> 00:21:16.558
- Say that with me. "our faith."
- 00:21:16.625 --> 00:21:18.994
- "our faith." when you don't have the answer,
- 00:21:19.061 --> 00:21:20.562
- When you don't have the answer, have faith in the one who is
- 00:21:20.629 --> 00:21:22.331
- Have faith in the one who is the answer.
- 00:21:22.397 --> 00:21:23.432
- The answer. [amen.]
- 00:21:23.498 --> 00:21:23.932
- [amen.] when you don't have
- 00:21:23.999 --> 00:21:24.566
- When you don't have the resources,
- 00:21:24.633 --> 00:21:25.167
- The resources, have faith in the one who has
- 00:21:25.233 --> 00:21:26.735
- Have faith in the one who has the cattle on a thousand
- 00:21:26.802 --> 00:21:27.769
- The cattle on a thousand hilltops.
- 00:21:27.836 --> 00:21:28.770
- Hilltops. when you don't know what
- 00:21:28.837 --> 00:21:29.604
- When you don't know what to do,
- 00:21:29.671 --> 00:21:30.172
- To do, have faith in a god who is
- 00:21:30.238 --> 00:21:31.873
- Have faith in a god who is sovereign and has not brought
- 00:21:31.940 --> 00:21:33.208

- You this far to fail. when you don't know which way

- When you don't know which way to turn,
- 00:21:36.078 --> 00:21:36.578
- To turn, turn to him.
- 00:21:36.645 --> 00:21:37.479

- God is connecting you into a kingdom movement
- 00:21:49.391 --> 00:21:51.660

- 00:22:02.270 --> 00:22:03.772
- He hasn't given you all of the grace that he's poured out

- In defeat today. what he wants to know is

- What he wants to know is who has the heart to decide
- 00:22:13.215 --> 00:22:15.751
- Who has the heart to decide that enough is enough.
- 00:22:15.817 --> 00:22:17.819
- That enough is enough. i'm not going to let the enemy
