  • Pastor matt hagee: we live
  • 00:00:17.611 --> 00:00:18.112
  • Pastor matt hagee: we live in a world that
  • 00:00:18.179 --> 00:00:20.448
  • In a world that has become addicted
  • 00:00:20.514 --> 00:00:21.415
  • Has become addicted to the artificial.
  • 00:00:21.482 --> 00:00:24.385
  • To the artificial. we crave imposters.
  • 00:00:24.452 --> 00:00:28.222
  • We crave imposters. as a matter of fact,
  • 00:00:28.289 --> 00:00:28.956
  • As a matter of fact, we brag about 'em.
  • 00:00:29.023 --> 00:00:30.925
  • We brag about 'em. if it looks like the real thing,
  • 00:00:30.991 --> 00:00:34.061
  • If it looks like the real thing, if it feels like the real thing,
  • 00:00:34.128 --> 00:00:37.598
  • If it feels like the real thing, but it doesn't cost or require
  • 00:00:37.665 --> 00:00:40.034
  • But it doesn't cost or require the same sacrifice, maintenance,
  • 00:00:40.101 --> 00:00:41.869
  • The same sacrifice, maintenance, and upkeep as the real thing,
  • 00:00:41.936 --> 00:00:44.538
  • And upkeep as the real thing, we'll show it to our friends
  • 00:00:44.605 --> 00:00:47.575
  • We'll show it to our friends and tell them, "feel it.
  • 00:00:47.641 --> 00:00:50.277
  • And tell them, "feel it. it's faux."
  • 00:00:50.344 --> 00:00:54.048
  • It's faux." as if "faux" makes
  • 00:00:54.115 --> 00:00:56.717
  • As if "faux" makes "fake" sound better.
  • 00:00:56.784 --> 00:01:00.187
  • "fake" sound better. "it's faux leather."
  • 00:01:00.254 --> 00:01:02.823
  • "it's faux leather." they call it pleather.
  • 00:01:02.890 --> 00:01:04.258

  • 00:01:13.701 --> 00:01:15.669
  • [applause]
  • 00:01:18.772 --> 00:01:23.944
  • And while i'm talking
  • 00:01:24.778 --> 00:01:25.446
  • And while i'm talking about things that
  • 00:01:25.513 --> 00:01:26.347
  • About things that are imposters and artificial,
  • 00:01:26.413 --> 00:01:29.016
  • Are imposters and artificial, i really don't mind
  • 00:01:29.083 --> 00:01:30.784
  • I really don't mind if you prefer the artificial in
  • 00:01:30.851 --> 00:01:32.486
  • If you prefer the artificial in your wardrobe or on your plate,
  • 00:01:32.553 --> 00:01:35.389
  • Your wardrobe or on your plate, but i can tell you for sure it
  • 00:01:35.456 --> 00:01:37.057
  • But i can tell you for sure it is altogether different
  • 00:01:37.124 --> 00:01:38.659
  • Is altogether different when you've got
  • 00:01:38.726 --> 00:01:39.226
  • When you've got the artificial in a pulpit,
  • 00:01:39.293 --> 00:01:41.095
  • The artificial in a pulpit, or you've got the artificial
  • 00:01:41.162 --> 00:01:42.263
  • Or you've got the artificial in a classroom,
  • 00:01:42.329 --> 00:01:43.364
  • In a classroom, or you've got the artificial
  • 00:01:43.430 --> 00:01:44.565
  • Or you've got the artificial in a courtroom,
  • 00:01:44.632 --> 00:01:45.366
  • In a courtroom, or you've got the artificial
  • 00:01:45.432 --> 00:01:46.667
  • Or you've got the artificial in your congress
  • 00:01:46.734 --> 00:01:47.568
  • In your congress and in your senate.
  • 00:01:47.635 --> 00:01:48.569
  • And in your senate. why?
  • 00:01:48.636 --> 00:01:49.303
  • Why? because you can't
  • 00:01:49.370 --> 00:01:50.437
  • Because you can't beat the real thing.
  • 00:01:50.504 --> 00:01:53.140
  • Beat the real thing. and when it comes
  • 00:01:53.207 --> 00:01:53.874
  • And when it comes to the real thing,
  • 00:01:53.941 --> 00:01:54.975
  • To the real thing, god's word sets the standard.
  • 00:01:55.042 --> 00:01:57.144
  • God's word sets the standard. jesus christ said,
  • 00:01:57.211 --> 00:01:58.712
  • Jesus christ said, "thy word is truth."
  • 00:01:58.779 --> 00:02:01.415
  • "thy word is truth." this is the standard of truth.
  • 00:02:01.482 --> 00:02:03.751
  • This is the standard of truth. and jesus told us in john 8:32,
  • 00:02:03.817 --> 00:02:06.387
  • And jesus told us in john 8:32, "you shall know the truth

  • 00:02:07.922 --> 00:02:09.156
  • And the truth shall make you," what?
  • 00:02:09.223 --> 00:02:10.791
  • Shall make you," what? "free."
  • 00:02:10.858 --> 00:02:12.626
  • "free." we talk about all

  • Have you ever correlated the fact that the farther
  • 00:02:17.431 --> 00:02:18.566
  • The fact that the farther we get away from truth,
  • 00:02:18.632 --> 00:02:19.967
  • We get away from truth, the more freedom we lose?
  • 00:02:20.034 --> 00:02:22.336
  • The more freedom we lose? why?
  • 00:02:22.403 --> 00:02:22.970
  • Why? because this is the truth
  • 00:02:23.037 --> 00:02:24.838
  • Because this is the truth and the truth
  • 00:02:24.905 --> 00:02:25.673
  • And the truth will make you free.
  • 00:02:25.739 --> 00:02:27.708
  • Will make you free. the more truth you have,
  • 00:02:27.775 --> 00:02:28.943
  • The more truth you have, the more freedom you enjoy.
  • 00:02:29.009 --> 00:02:30.344
  • The more freedom you enjoy. the more truth you reject,
  • 00:02:30.411 --> 00:02:31.879
  • The more truth you reject, the more bondage you endure.
  • 00:02:31.946 --> 00:02:34.815
  • The more bondage you endure. truth is the standard
  • 00:02:34.882 --> 00:02:36.150
  • Truth is the standard of knowledge.
  • 00:02:36.217 --> 00:02:37.218
  • Of knowledge. truth is the standard of wisdom.
  • 00:02:37.284 --> 00:02:39.286
  • Truth is the standard of wisdom. jeremiah told us,
  • 00:02:39.353 --> 00:02:40.321
  • Jeremiah told us, "let not the wise man
  • 00:02:40.387 --> 00:02:41.755
  • "let not the wise man glory in his wisdom
  • 00:02:41.822 --> 00:02:42.923
  • Glory in his wisdom or the mighty man in his might,
  • 00:02:42.990 --> 00:02:44.692
  • Or the mighty man in his might, or the rich man
  • 00:02:44.758 --> 00:02:45.726
  • Or the rich man in his riches.
  • 00:02:45.793 --> 00:02:46.760
  • In his riches. but let him glory in this
  • 00:02:46.827 --> 00:02:48.529
  • But let him glory in this that he knows god."
  • 00:02:48.596 --> 00:02:51.899
  • That he knows god." rehoboam loses

  • Rehoboam loses the gold standard.
  • 00:02:54.068 --> 00:02:56.770
  • The gold standard. and instead of going back
  • 00:02:56.837 --> 00:02:58.372
  • And instead of going back to get it,
  • 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:00.341
  • To get it, he decides to set a
  • 00:03:00.407 --> 00:03:01.242
  • He decides to set a new standard and says,
  • 00:03:01.308 --> 00:03:02.776
  • New standard and says, "bronze will do."

  • "bronze will do." i don't know about you,
  • 00:03:06.847 --> 00:03:08.315
  • I don't know about you, but ladies,
  • 00:03:08.382 --> 00:03:09.049
  • But ladies, how many of you would be

  • Wouldn't that be a wonderful anniversary gift?
  • 00:03:18.292 --> 00:03:23.564
  • A wonderful anniversary gift? no, because you

  • And then he not only had an ivory throne,
  • 00:06:54.708 --> 00:06:56.043
  • Had an ivory throne, he decided that he was going
  • 00:06:56.109 --> 00:06:57.277
  • He decided that he was going to overlay it with gold.

  • Marble steps. and on each of the steps
  • 00:07:09.990 --> 00:07:11.325
  • And on each of the steps to his right and to his left
  • 00:07:11.391 --> 00:07:12.826
  • To his right and to his left sat a gold lion because
  • 00:07:12.893 --> 00:07:14.862
  • Sat a gold lion because he was the tribe of judah.
  • 00:07:14.928 --> 00:07:17.164
  • He was the tribe of judah. and those twelve gold lions
  • 00:07:17.231 --> 00:07:19.166
  • And those twelve gold lions cascaded from his throne down
  • 00:07:19.233 --> 00:07:21.468
  • Cascaded from his throne down announcing that judah was
  • 00:07:21.535 --> 00:07:23.136
  • Announcing that judah was the king over all of israel.
  • 00:07:23.203 --> 00:07:26.773
  • The king over all of israel. above him were cedar beams
  • 00:07:26.840 --> 00:07:28.609
  • Above him were cedar beams from lebanon in the throne room,
  • 00:07:28.675 --> 00:07:30.511
  • From lebanon in the throne room, and on the cedar beams
  • 00:07:30.577 --> 00:07:32.546
  • And on the cedar beams were 200 gold shields.
  • 00:07:32.613 --> 00:07:36.283
  • Were 200 gold shields. now, the purpose of these gold
  • 00:07:36.350 --> 00:07:37.417
  • Now, the purpose of these gold shields is that when solomon
  • 00:07:37.484 --> 00:07:39.186
  • Shields is that when solomon would get up from his throne
  • 00:07:39.253 --> 00:07:41.121
  • Would get up from his throne and walk up into the temple,
  • 00:07:41.188 --> 00:07:42.956
  • And walk up into the temple, the guard that
  • 00:07:43.023 --> 00:07:43.924
  • The guard that protected solomon,
  • 00:07:43.991 --> 00:07:45.092
  • Protected solomon, 200 men,
  • 00:07:45.158 --> 00:07:46.293
  • 200 men, 100 men would take the gold
  • 00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.228
  • 100 men would take the gold shields and go to the right side
  • 00:07:48.295 --> 00:07:49.930
  • Shields and go to the right side of the road
  • 00:07:49.997 --> 00:07:50.597
  • Of the road and 100 men would take
  • 00:07:50.664 --> 00:07:51.765
  • And 100 men would take the gold shields
  • 00:07:51.832 --> 00:07:52.633
  • The gold shields and go to the left side
  • 00:07:52.699 --> 00:07:53.500
  • And go to the left side of the road,
  • 00:07:53.567 --> 00:07:54.134
  • Of the road, and solomon would leave
  • 00:07:54.201 --> 00:07:55.469
  • And solomon would leave the throne room
  • 00:07:55.536 --> 00:07:56.503
  • The throne room and head to the temple.
  • 00:07:56.570 --> 00:07:59.139
  • And head to the temple. and even today,
  • 00:07:59.206 --> 00:07:59.973
  • And even today, you can see exactly how
  • 00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:01.375
  • You can see exactly how this lays out
  • 00:08:01.441 --> 00:08:02.242
  • This lays out because mount zion is higher
  • 00:08:02.309 --> 00:08:04.444
  • Because mount zion is higher than the mountain where
  • 00:08:04.511 --> 00:08:05.345
  • Than the mountain where the king's throne was,
  • 00:08:05.412 --> 00:08:06.346
  • The king's throne was, so the king would
  • 00:08:06.413 --> 00:08:07.247
  • So the king would have to go up to the temple.
  • 00:08:07.314 --> 00:08:10.284
  • Have to go up to the temple. there's a preaching point there
  • 00:08:10.350 --> 00:08:11.451
  • There's a preaching point there that i don't have time
  • 00:08:11.518 --> 00:08:12.119
  • That i don't have time to get into,
  • 00:08:12.185 --> 00:08:12.920
  • To get into, but you need to understand
  • 00:08:12.986 --> 00:08:14.154
  • But you need to understand anytime you're going after god,
  • 00:08:14.221 --> 00:08:16.023
  • Anytime you're going after god, you've gotta go up to get him.
  • 00:08:16.089 --> 00:08:17.324
  • [applause]
  • 00:08:18.158 --> 00:08:23.830
  • And when solomon would
  • 00:08:24.298 --> 00:08:25.032
  • And when solomon would go up into the temple,
  • 00:08:25.098 --> 00:08:26.800
  • Go up into the temple, it would look as if
  • 00:08:26.867 --> 00:08:28.135
  • It would look as if the golden arms of god
  • 00:08:28.201 --> 00:08:29.937
  • The golden arms of god were reaching down
  • 00:08:30.003 --> 00:08:31.038
  • Were reaching down to pull him in.
  • 00:08:31.104 --> 00:08:33.674
  • To pull him in. yet in the fifth year,
  • 00:08:33.740 --> 00:08:36.677
  • Yet in the fifth year, the king of egypt
  • 00:08:36.743 --> 00:08:37.444
  • The king of egypt comes and the bible
  • 00:08:37.511 --> 00:08:39.413
  • Comes and the bible says he took everything.
  • 00:08:39.479 --> 00:08:44.284
  • Says he took everything. how much did he take?
  • 00:08:44.351 --> 00:08:45.953
  • How much did he take? everything.
  • 00:08:46.019 --> 00:08:47.454
  • Everything. you say, "pastor matt,
  • 00:08:47.521 --> 00:08:48.322
  • You say, "pastor matt, he couldn't possibly
  • 00:08:48.388 --> 00:08:49.222
  • He couldn't possibly take every," --
  • 00:08:49.289 --> 00:08:49.790
  • Take every," -- oh, he took everything.
  • 00:08:49.856 --> 00:08:53.594
  • Oh, he took everything. "he took the ivory throne?"
  • 00:08:53.660 --> 00:08:55.963
  • "he took the ivory throne?" everything.
  • 00:08:56.029 --> 00:08:57.564
  • Everything. "he took the twelve gold lions?"
  • 00:08:57.631 --> 00:09:00.434
  • "he took the twelve gold lions?" everything.
  • 00:09:00.500 --> 00:09:01.935
  • Everything. "he took the cedar beams?"
  • 00:09:02.002 --> 00:09:04.638
  • "he took the cedar beams?" everything.
  • 00:09:04.705 --> 00:09:06.073
  • Everything. "he took the 200 gold shields?"
  • 00:09:06.139 --> 00:09:10.043
  • Why?
  • 00:09:13.580 --> 00:09:15.782
  • Why? because of sin.
  • 00:09:15.849 --> 00:09:18.986
  • Because of sin. you see,
  • 00:09:19.052 --> 00:09:19.486
  • You see, david was man after god's
  • 00:09:19.553 --> 00:09:20.654
  • David was man after god's own heart and solomon
  • 00:09:20.721 --> 00:09:23.657
  • Own heart and solomon upheld the worship of the lord
  • 00:09:23.724 --> 00:09:25.125
  • Upheld the worship of the lord in the temple,
  • 00:09:25.192 --> 00:09:26.760
  • In the temple, but rehoboam had allowed idols
  • 00:09:26.827 --> 00:09:29.062
  • But rehoboam had allowed idols to enter god's house.
  • 00:09:29.129 --> 00:09:32.099
  • To enter god's house. he preferred a fake, imposter,
  • 00:09:32.165 --> 00:09:35.302
  • He preferred a fake, imposter, substitute, artificial god
  • 00:09:35.369 --> 00:09:37.638
  • Substitute, artificial god next to the one true god.
  • 00:09:37.704 --> 00:09:40.574
  • Next to the one true god. and god said, "my glory,
  • 00:09:40.641 --> 00:09:41.808
  • And god said, "my glory, "i'll share with no one."
  • 00:09:41.875 --> 00:09:45.112
  • "i'll share with no one." so, all it took was five years
  • 00:09:45.178 --> 00:09:48.649
  • So, all it took was five years and rehoboam
  • 00:09:48.715 --> 00:09:49.316
  • And rehoboam lost everything.
  • 00:09:49.383 --> 00:09:52.085
  • Lost everything. let me tell you something,
  • 00:09:52.152 --> 00:09:53.887
  • Let me tell you something, sin will cost you everything.
  • 00:09:53.954 --> 00:09:57.591
  • Sin will cost you everything. it might not take
  • 00:09:57.658 --> 00:09:58.325
  • It might not take it all at once,
  • 00:09:58.392 --> 00:09:59.459
  • It all at once, but eventually it will
  • 00:09:59.526 --> 00:10:00.661
  • But eventually it will take everything.
  • 00:10:00.727 --> 00:10:02.329
  • Take everything. you let it into your house,
  • 00:10:02.396 --> 00:10:03.730
  • You let it into your house, it'll take your family.
  • 00:10:03.797 --> 00:10:04.965
  • It'll take your family. you let it into your marriage,
  • 00:10:05.032 --> 00:10:06.199
  • You let it into your marriage, it'll destroy that.
  • 00:10:06.266 --> 00:10:07.401
  • It'll destroy that. you let it into your business,
  • 00:10:07.467 --> 00:10:08.802
  • You let it into your business, you'll go bankrupt.
  • 00:10:08.869 --> 00:10:09.936
  • You'll go bankrupt. you let it into your life,
  • 00:10:10.003 --> 00:10:11.138
  • You let it into your life, it will kill you.
  • 00:10:11.204 --> 00:10:14.775
  • It will kill you. why?
  • 00:10:14.841 --> 00:10:16.343
  • Why? because there is only one true
  • 00:10:16.410 --> 00:10:17.544
  • Because there is only one true god and he will not share
  • 00:10:17.611 --> 00:10:19.579
  • God and he will not share his glory with anyone.
  • 00:10:19.646 --> 00:10:22.916
  • His glory with anyone. rehoboam becomes a pretender
  • 00:10:22.983 --> 00:10:24.785
  • Rehoboam becomes a pretender in the palace.
  • 00:10:24.851 --> 00:10:26.720
  • In the palace. you say,
  • 00:10:26.787 --> 00:10:27.254
  • You say, "well how can you blame him?
  • 00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:28.955
  • "well how can you blame him? the king of egypt
  • 00:10:29.022 --> 00:10:29.890
  • The king of egypt came and took it."
  • 00:10:29.956 --> 00:10:30.924
  • Came and took it." if you understood anything
  • 00:10:30.991 --> 00:10:32.459
  • If you understood anything about the ancient world,
  • 00:10:32.526 --> 00:10:33.927
  • About the ancient world, the only way that
  • 00:10:33.994 --> 00:10:35.028
  • The only way that an invading king would allow
  • 00:10:35.095 --> 00:10:36.897
  • An invading king would allow the king that he conquered
  • 00:10:36.963 --> 00:10:38.665
  • The king that he conquered to live is if the king
  • 00:10:38.732 --> 00:10:40.067
  • To live is if the king that he conquered submitted
  • 00:10:40.133 --> 00:10:41.368
  • That he conquered submitted himself to the new king.
  • 00:10:41.435 --> 00:10:44.137
  • Himself to the new king. if rehoboam would have
  • 00:10:44.204 --> 00:10:45.172
  • If rehoboam would have fought the king of egypt,
  • 00:10:45.238 --> 00:10:46.773
  • Fought the king of egypt, he would be dead.
  • 00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.443
  • He would be dead. it would say,
  • 00:10:49.509 --> 00:10:50.377
  • It would say, "and rehoboam got
  • 00:10:50.444 --> 00:10:51.278
  • "and rehoboam got his head cut off,
  • 00:10:51.344 --> 00:10:52.379
  • His head cut off, and then he took everything."
  • 00:10:52.446 --> 00:10:55.148
  • And then he took everything." but the fact that rehoboam
  • 00:10:55.215 --> 00:10:56.383
  • But the fact that rehoboam is still around after
  • 00:10:56.450 --> 00:10:57.517
  • Is still around after everything's gone means
  • 00:10:57.584 --> 00:10:59.252
  • Everything's gone means that the grandson of david
  • 00:10:59.319 --> 00:11:00.554
  • That the grandson of david and the son of solomon helped
  • 00:11:00.620 --> 00:11:02.122
  • And the son of solomon helped the king of egypt load up
  • 00:11:02.189 --> 00:11:03.857
  • The king of egypt load up his stuff in his truck
  • 00:11:03.924 --> 00:11:06.093
  • His stuff in his truck and send him back to egypt.
  • 00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:09.696
  • And send him back to egypt. now in texas,
  • 00:11:09.763 --> 00:11:10.664
  • Now in texas, that's called all hat

  • As a measure of your faith, to lift your hands and bow
  • 00:23:41.481 --> 00:23:42.515
  • To lift your hands and bow your heads and just start
  • 00:23:42.582 --> 00:23:43.616
  • Your heads and just start thanking god for his goodness
  • 00:23:43.683 --> 00:23:45.418
  • Thanking god for his goodness because the bible says,
  • 00:23:45.485 --> 00:23:46.385
  • Because the bible says, "enter into his gates
  • 00:23:46.452 --> 00:23:47.487
  • "enter into his gates with thanksgiving
  • 00:23:47.553 --> 00:23:48.354
  • With thanksgiving and into his courts
  • 00:23:48.421 --> 00:23:49.088
