  • Pastor matt hagee: we live
  • 00:00:17.610 --> 00:00:18.111
  • Pastor matt hagee: we live in a world that
  • 00:00:18.178 --> 00:00:20.447
  • In a world that has become addicted
  • 00:00:20.513 --> 00:00:21.414
  • Has become addicted to the artificial.
  • 00:00:21.481 --> 00:00:24.384
  • To the artificial. we crave imposters.
  • 00:00:24.451 --> 00:00:28.221
  • We crave imposters. as a matter of fact,
  • 00:00:28.288 --> 00:00:28.955
  • As a matter of fact, we brag about 'em.
  • 00:00:29.022 --> 00:00:30.924
  • We brag about 'em. if it looks like the real thing,
  • 00:00:30.990 --> 00:00:34.060
  • If it looks like the real thing, if it feels like the real thing,
  • 00:00:34.127 --> 00:00:37.597
  • If it feels like the real thing, but it doesn't cost or require
  • 00:00:37.664 --> 00:00:40.033
  • But it doesn't cost or require the same sacrifice, maintenance,
  • 00:00:40.100 --> 00:00:41.868
  • The same sacrifice, maintenance, and upkeep as the real thing,
  • 00:00:41.935 --> 00:00:44.537
  • And upkeep as the real thing, we'll show it to our friends
  • 00:00:44.604 --> 00:00:47.574
  • We'll show it to our friends and tell them, "feel it.
  • 00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.276
  • And tell them, "feel it. it's faux."
  • 00:00:50.343 --> 00:00:54.047
  • It's faux." as if "faux" makes
  • 00:00:54.114 --> 00:00:56.716
  • As if "faux" makes "fake" sound better.
  • 00:00:56.783 --> 00:01:00.186
  • "fake" sound better. "it's faux leather."
  • 00:01:00.253 --> 00:01:02.822
  • "it's faux leather." they call it pleather.
  • 00:01:02.889 --> 00:01:04.257

  • Now we've got faux meat. may it be forbidden.
  • 00:01:13.700 --> 00:01:15.668
  • [applause]
  • 00:01:18.771 --> 00:01:23.943
  • And while i'm talking
  • 00:01:24.777 --> 00:01:25.445
  • And while i'm talking about things that
  • 00:01:25.512 --> 00:01:26.346
  • About things that are imposters and artificial,
  • 00:01:26.412 --> 00:01:29.015
  • Are imposters and artificial, i really don't mind
  • 00:01:29.082 --> 00:01:30.783
  • I really don't mind if you prefer the artificial in
  • 00:01:30.850 --> 00:01:32.485
  • If you prefer the artificial in your wardrobe or on your plate,
  • 00:01:32.552 --> 00:01:35.388
  • Your wardrobe or on your plate, but i can tell you for sure it
  • 00:01:35.455 --> 00:01:37.056
  • But i can tell you for sure it is altogether different
  • 00:01:37.123 --> 00:01:38.658
  • Is altogether different when you've got
  • 00:01:38.725 --> 00:01:39.225
  • When you've got the artificial in a pulpit,
  • 00:01:39.292 --> 00:01:41.094
  • The artificial in a pulpit, or you've got the artificial
  • 00:01:41.161 --> 00:01:42.262
  • Or you've got the artificial in a classroom,
  • 00:01:42.328 --> 00:01:43.363
  • In a classroom, or you've got the artificial
  • 00:01:43.429 --> 00:01:44.564
  • Or you've got the artificial in a courtroom,
  • 00:01:44.631 --> 00:01:45.365
  • In a courtroom, or you've got the artificial
  • 00:01:45.431 --> 00:01:46.666
  • Or you've got the artificial in your congress
  • 00:01:46.733 --> 00:01:47.567
  • In your congress and in your senate.
  • 00:01:47.634 --> 00:01:48.568
  • And in your senate. why?
  • 00:01:48.635 --> 00:01:49.302
  • Why? because you can't
  • 00:01:49.369 --> 00:01:50.436
  • Because you can't beat the real thing.
  • 00:01:50.503 --> 00:01:53.139
  • Beat the real thing. and when it comes
  • 00:01:53.206 --> 00:01:53.873
  • And when it comes to the real thing,
  • 00:01:53.940 --> 00:01:54.974
  • To the real thing, god's word sets the standard.
  • 00:01:55.041 --> 00:01:57.143
  • God's word sets the standard. jesus christ said,
  • 00:01:57.210 --> 00:01:58.711
  • Jesus christ said, "thy word is truth."
  • 00:01:58.778 --> 00:02:01.414
  • "thy word is truth." this is the standard of truth.
  • 00:02:01.481 --> 00:02:03.750
  • This is the standard of truth. and jesus told us in john 8:32,
  • 00:02:03.816 --> 00:02:06.386
  • And jesus told us in john 8:32, "you shall know the truth
  • 00:02:06.452 --> 00:02:07.854
  • "you shall know the truth and the truth
  • 00:02:07.921 --> 00:02:09.155
  • And the truth shall make you," what?
  • 00:02:09.222 --> 00:02:10.790
  • Shall make you," what? "free."
  • 00:02:10.857 --> 00:02:12.625
  • "free." we talk about all
  • 00:02:12.692 --> 00:02:13.326

  • We're losing in our society. have you ever correlated
  • 00:02:16.129 --> 00:02:17.363
  • Have you ever correlated the fact that the farther
  • 00:02:17.430 --> 00:02:18.565
  • The fact that the farther we get away from truth,
  • 00:02:18.631 --> 00:02:19.966
  • We get away from truth, the more freedom we lose?
  • 00:02:20.033 --> 00:02:22.335
  • The more freedom we lose? why?
  • 00:02:22.402 --> 00:02:22.969
  • Why? because this is the truth
  • 00:02:23.036 --> 00:02:24.837
  • Because this is the truth and the truth
  • 00:02:24.904 --> 00:02:25.672
  • And the truth will make you free.
  • 00:02:25.738 --> 00:02:27.707
  • Will make you free. the more truth you have,
  • 00:02:27.774 --> 00:02:28.942
  • The more truth you have, the more freedom you enjoy.
  • 00:02:29.008 --> 00:02:30.343
  • The more freedom you enjoy. the more truth you reject,
  • 00:02:30.410 --> 00:02:31.878
  • The more truth you reject, the more bondage you endure.
  • 00:02:31.945 --> 00:02:34.814
  • The more bondage you endure. truth is the standard
  • 00:02:34.881 --> 00:02:36.149
  • Truth is the standard of knowledge.
  • 00:02:36.216 --> 00:02:37.217
  • Of knowledge. truth is the standard of wisdom.
  • 00:02:37.283 --> 00:02:39.285
  • Truth is the standard of wisdom. jeremiah told us,
  • 00:02:39.352 --> 00:02:40.320
  • Jeremiah told us, "let not the wise man
  • 00:02:40.386 --> 00:02:41.754
  • "let not the wise man glory in his wisdom
  • 00:02:41.821 --> 00:02:42.922
  • Glory in his wisdom or the mighty man in his might,
  • 00:02:42.989 --> 00:02:44.691
  • Or the mighty man in his might, or the rich man
  • 00:02:44.757 --> 00:02:45.725
  • Or the rich man in his riches.
  • 00:02:45.792 --> 00:02:46.759
  • In his riches. but let him glory in this
  • 00:02:46.826 --> 00:02:48.528
  • But let him glory in this that he knows god."
  • 00:02:48.595 --> 00:02:51.898
  • That he knows god." rehoboam loses

  • Rehoboam loses the gold standard.
  • 00:02:54.067 --> 00:02:56.769
  • The gold standard. and instead of going back
  • 00:02:56.836 --> 00:02:58.371
  • And instead of going back to get it,
  • 00:02:58.438 --> 00:03:00.340
  • To get it, he decides to set a
  • 00:03:00.406 --> 00:03:01.241
  • He decides to set a new standard and says,
  • 00:03:01.307 --> 00:03:02.775
  • New standard and says, "bronze will do."

  • "bronze will do." i don't know about you,
  • 00:03:06.846 --> 00:03:08.314
  • I don't know about you, but ladies,
  • 00:03:08.381 --> 00:03:09.048
  • But ladies, how many of you would be

  • Wouldn't that be a wonderful anniversary gift?
  • 00:03:18.291 --> 00:03:23.563
  • A wonderful anniversary gift? no, because you
  • 00:03:23.630 --> 00:03:26.099
  • No, because you want the real thing.

  • Than the one true god. isaiah 55:7 says,

  • And then he not only had an ivory throne,
  • 00:06:54.707 --> 00:06:56.042
  • Had an ivory throne, he decided that he was going
  • 00:06:56.108 --> 00:06:57.276

  • Marble steps. and on each of the steps
  • 00:07:09.989 --> 00:07:11.324
  • And on each of the steps to his right and to his left
  • 00:07:11.390 --> 00:07:12.825
  • To his right and to his left sat a gold lion because
  • 00:07:12.892 --> 00:07:14.861
  • Sat a gold lion because he was the tribe of judah.
  • 00:07:14.927 --> 00:07:17.163
  • He was the tribe of judah. and those twelve gold lions
  • 00:07:17.230 --> 00:07:19.165
  • And those twelve gold lions cascaded from his throne down
  • 00:07:19.232 --> 00:07:21.467
  • Cascaded from his throne down announcing that judah was
  • 00:07:21.534 --> 00:07:23.135
  • Announcing that judah was the king over all of israel.
  • 00:07:23.202 --> 00:07:26.772
  • The king over all of israel. above him were cedar beams
  • 00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:28.608
  • Above him were cedar beams from lebanon in the throne room,
  • 00:07:28.674 --> 00:07:30.510
  • From lebanon in the throne room, and on the cedar beams
  • 00:07:30.576 --> 00:07:32.545
  • And on the cedar beams were 200 gold shields.
  • 00:07:32.612 --> 00:07:36.282
  • Were 200 gold shields. now, the purpose of these gold
  • 00:07:36.349 --> 00:07:37.416
  • Now, the purpose of these gold shields is that when solomon
  • 00:07:37.483 --> 00:07:39.185
  • Shields is that when solomon would get up from his throne
  • 00:07:39.252 --> 00:07:41.120
  • Would get up from his throne and walk up into the temple,
  • 00:07:41.187 --> 00:07:42.955
  • And walk up into the temple, the guard that
  • 00:07:43.022 --> 00:07:43.923
  • The guard that protected solomon,
  • 00:07:43.990 --> 00:07:45.091
  • Protected solomon, 200 men,
  • 00:07:45.157 --> 00:07:46.292
  • 200 men, 100 men would take the gold
  • 00:07:46.359 --> 00:07:48.227
  • 100 men would take the gold shields and go to the right side
  • 00:07:48.294 --> 00:07:49.929
  • Shields and go to the right side of the road
  • 00:07:49.996 --> 00:07:50.596
  • Of the road and 100 men would take
  • 00:07:50.663 --> 00:07:51.764
  • And 100 men would take the gold shields
  • 00:07:51.831 --> 00:07:52.632
  • The gold shields and go to the left side
  • 00:07:52.698 --> 00:07:53.499
  • And go to the left side of the road,
  • 00:07:53.566 --> 00:07:54.133
  • Of the road, and solomon would leave
  • 00:07:54.200 --> 00:07:55.468
  • And solomon would leave the throne room
  • 00:07:55.535 --> 00:07:56.502
  • The throne room and head to the temple.
  • 00:07:56.569 --> 00:07:59.138
  • And head to the temple. and even today,
  • 00:07:59.205 --> 00:07:59.972
  • And even today, you can see exactly how
  • 00:08:00.039 --> 00:08:01.374
  • You can see exactly how this lays out
  • 00:08:01.440 --> 00:08:02.241
  • This lays out because mount zion is higher
  • 00:08:02.308 --> 00:08:04.443
  • Because mount zion is higher than the mountain where
  • 00:08:04.510 --> 00:08:05.344
  • Than the mountain where the king's throne was,
  • 00:08:05.411 --> 00:08:06.345
  • The king's throne was, so the king would
  • 00:08:06.412 --> 00:08:07.246
  • So the king would have to go up to the temple.
  • 00:08:07.313 --> 00:08:10.283
  • Have to go up to the temple. there's a preaching point there
  • 00:08:10.349 --> 00:08:11.450
  • There's a preaching point there that i don't have time
  • 00:08:11.517 --> 00:08:12.118
  • That i don't have time to get into,
  • 00:08:12.184 --> 00:08:12.919
  • To get into, but you need to understand
  • 00:08:12.985 --> 00:08:14.153
  • But you need to understand anytime you're going after god,
  • 00:08:14.220 --> 00:08:16.022
  • Anytime you're going after god, you've gotta go up to get him.
  • 00:08:16.088 --> 00:08:17.323
  • [applause]
  • 00:08:18.157 --> 00:08:23.829
  • And when solomon would
  • 00:08:24.297 --> 00:08:25.031
  • And when solomon would go up into the temple,
  • 00:08:25.097 --> 00:08:26.799
  • Go up into the temple, it would look as if
  • 00:08:26.866 --> 00:08:28.134
  • It would look as if the golden arms of god
  • 00:08:28.200 --> 00:08:29.936
  • The golden arms of god were reaching down
  • 00:08:30.002 --> 00:08:31.037
  • Were reaching down to pull him in.
  • 00:08:31.103 --> 00:08:33.673
  • To pull him in. yet in the fifth year,
  • 00:08:33.739 --> 00:08:36.676
  • Yet in the fifth year, the king of egypt
  • 00:08:36.742 --> 00:08:37.443
  • The king of egypt comes and the bible
  • 00:08:37.510 --> 00:08:39.412
  • Comes and the bible says he took everything.
  • 00:08:39.478 --> 00:08:44.283
  • Says he took everything. how much did he take?
  • 00:08:44.350 --> 00:08:45.952
  • How much did he take? everything.
  • 00:08:46.018 --> 00:08:47.453
  • Everything. you say, "pastor matt,
  • 00:08:47.520 --> 00:08:48.321
  • You say, "pastor matt, he couldn't possibly
  • 00:08:48.387 --> 00:08:49.221
  • He couldn't possibly take every," --
  • 00:08:49.288 --> 00:08:49.789
  • Take every," -- oh, he took everything.
  • 00:08:49.855 --> 00:08:53.593
  • Oh, he took everything. "he took the ivory throne?"
  • 00:08:53.659 --> 00:08:55.962
  • "he took the ivory throne?" everything.
  • 00:08:56.028 --> 00:08:57.563
  • Everything. "he took the twelve gold lions?"
  • 00:08:57.630 --> 00:09:00.433
  • "he took the twelve gold lions?" everything.
  • 00:09:00.499 --> 00:09:01.934
  • Everything. "he took the cedar beams?"
  • 00:09:02.001 --> 00:09:04.637
  • "he took the cedar beams?" everything.
  • 00:09:04.704 --> 00:09:06.072
  • Everything. "he took the 200 gold shields?"
  • 00:09:06.138 --> 00:09:10.042
  • Why?
  • 00:09:13.579 --> 00:09:15.781
  • Why? because of sin.
  • 00:09:15.848 --> 00:09:18.985
  • Because of sin. you see,
  • 00:09:19.051 --> 00:09:19.485
  • You see, david was man after god's
  • 00:09:19.552 --> 00:09:20.653
  • David was man after god's own heart and solomon
  • 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:23.656
  • Own heart and solomon upheld the worship of the lord
  • 00:09:23.723 --> 00:09:25.124
  • Upheld the worship of the lord in the temple,
  • 00:09:25.191 --> 00:09:26.759
  • In the temple, but rehoboam had allowed idols
  • 00:09:26.826 --> 00:09:29.061
  • But rehoboam had allowed idols to enter god's house.
  • 00:09:29.128 --> 00:09:32.098
  • To enter god's house. he preferred a fake, imposter,
  • 00:09:32.164 --> 00:09:35.301
  • He preferred a fake, imposter, substitute, artificial god
  • 00:09:35.368 --> 00:09:37.637
  • Substitute, artificial god next to the one true god.
  • 00:09:37.703 --> 00:09:40.573
  • Next to the one true god. and god said, "my glory,
  • 00:09:40.640 --> 00:09:41.807
  • And god said, "my glory, "i'll share with no one."
  • 00:09:41.874 --> 00:09:45.111
  • "i'll share with no one." so, all it took was five years
  • 00:09:45.177 --> 00:09:48.648
  • So, all it took was five years and rehoboam
  • 00:09:48.714 --> 00:09:49.315
  • And rehoboam lost everything.
  • 00:09:49.382 --> 00:09:52.084
  • Lost everything. let me tell you something,
  • 00:09:52.151 --> 00:09:53.886
  • Let me tell you something, sin will cost you everything.
  • 00:09:53.953 --> 00:09:57.590
  • Sin will cost you everything. it might not take
  • 00:09:57.657 --> 00:09:58.324
  • It might not take it all at once,
  • 00:09:58.391 --> 00:09:59.458
  • It all at once, but eventually it will
  • 00:09:59.525 --> 00:10:00.660
  • But eventually it will take everything.
  • 00:10:00.726 --> 00:10:02.328
  • Take everything. you let it into your house,
  • 00:10:02.395 --> 00:10:03.729
  • You let it into your house, it'll take your family.
  • 00:10:03.796 --> 00:10:04.964
  • It'll take your family. you let it into your marriage,
  • 00:10:05.031 --> 00:10:06.198
  • You let it into your marriage, it'll destroy that.
  • 00:10:06.265 --> 00:10:07.400
  • It'll destroy that. you let it into your business,
  • 00:10:07.466 --> 00:10:08.801
  • You let it into your business, you'll go bankrupt.
  • 00:10:08.868 --> 00:10:09.935
  • You'll go bankrupt. you let it into your life,
  • 00:10:10.002 --> 00:10:11.137
  • You let it into your life, it will kill you.
  • 00:10:11.203 --> 00:10:14.774
  • It will kill you. why?
  • 00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:16.342
  • Why? because there is only one true
  • 00:10:16.409 --> 00:10:17.543
  • Because there is only one true god and he will not share
  • 00:10:17.610 --> 00:10:19.578
  • God and he will not share his glory with anyone.
  • 00:10:19.645 --> 00:10:22.915
  • His glory with anyone. rehoboam becomes a pretender
  • 00:10:22.982 --> 00:10:24.784
  • Rehoboam becomes a pretender in the palace.
  • 00:10:24.850 --> 00:10:26.719
  • In the palace. you say,
  • 00:10:26.786 --> 00:10:27.253
  • You say, "well how can you blame him?
  • 00:10:27.319 --> 00:10:28.954
  • "well how can you blame him? the king of egypt
  • 00:10:29.021 --> 00:10:29.889
  • The king of egypt came and took it."
  • 00:10:29.955 --> 00:10:30.923
  • Came and took it." if you understood anything
  • 00:10:30.990 --> 00:10:32.458
  • If you understood anything about the ancient world,
  • 00:10:32.525 --> 00:10:33.926
  • About the ancient world, the only way that
  • 00:10:33.993 --> 00:10:35.027
  • The only way that an invading king would allow
  • 00:10:35.094 --> 00:10:36.896
  • An invading king would allow the king that he conquered
  • 00:10:36.962 --> 00:10:38.664
  • The king that he conquered to live is if the king
  • 00:10:38.731 --> 00:10:40.066
  • To live is if the king that he conquered submitted
  • 00:10:40.132 --> 00:10:41.367
  • That he conquered submitted himself to the new king.
  • 00:10:41.434 --> 00:10:44.136
  • Himself to the new king. if rehoboam would have
  • 00:10:44.203 --> 00:10:45.171
  • If rehoboam would have fought the king of egypt,
  • 00:10:45.237 --> 00:10:46.772
  • Fought the king of egypt, he would be dead.
  • 00:10:46.839 --> 00:10:49.442
  • He would be dead. it would say,
  • 00:10:49.508 --> 00:10:50.376
  • It would say, "and rehoboam got
  • 00:10:50.443 --> 00:10:51.277
  • "and rehoboam got his head cut off,
  • 00:10:51.343 --> 00:10:52.378
  • His head cut off, and then he took everything."
  • 00:10:52.445 --> 00:10:55.147
  • And then he took everything." but the fact that rehoboam
  • 00:10:55.214 --> 00:10:56.382
  • But the fact that rehoboam is still around after
  • 00:10:56.449 --> 00:10:57.516
  • Is still around after everything's gone means
  • 00:10:57.583 --> 00:10:59.251
  • Everything's gone means that the grandson of david
  • 00:10:59.318 --> 00:11:00.553
  • That the grandson of david and the son of solomon helped
  • 00:11:00.619 --> 00:11:02.121
  • And the son of solomon helped the king of egypt load up
  • 00:11:02.188 --> 00:11:03.856
  • The king of egypt load up his stuff in his truck
  • 00:11:03.923 --> 00:11:06.092
  • His stuff in his truck and send him back to egypt.
  • 00:11:06.158 --> 00:11:09.695
  • And send him back to egypt. now in texas,
  • 00:11:09.762 --> 00:11:10.663
  • Now in texas, that's called all hat
