Joseph Prince | Joseph Prince - Holiness Is Often Misunderstood (Bible Truth) | May 28, 2026
- ...
- 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:10.887
- Joseph prince: the opposite of holiness is not sin.
- 00:00:13.356 --> 00:00:15.658
- The opposite of holiness is common, commonness.
- 00:00:15.758 --> 00:00:20.330
- So when god says, "i make you holy--"
- 00:00:20.463 --> 00:00:22.532
- Even in the hebrew, the word "kadosh,"
- 00:00:22.665 --> 00:00:23.366
- And in the greek for holiness, "hagios,"
- 00:00:26.035 --> 00:00:28.805
- It all means "set apart."
- 00:00:28.805 --> 00:00:31.074
- There are some things in your house,
- 00:00:31.074 --> 00:00:33.109
- It is so special, you set it apart,
- 00:00:33.109 --> 00:00:35.478
- Under lock and key, amen?
- 00:00:35.478 --> 00:00:38.548
- Even your clothes that you like,
- 00:00:38.548 --> 00:00:39.883
- You separate them from other clothes
- 00:00:39.883 --> 00:00:41.784
- Because you know that it cannot get crumpled
- 00:00:41.784 --> 00:00:44.187
- Like other clothes-- it's special and all that--
- 00:00:44.187 --> 00:00:46.189
- Because you value them.
- 00:00:46.189 --> 00:00:47.590
- Well, holiness means set apart
- 00:00:47.590 --> 00:00:49.726
- For god's purposes and plans, amen.
- 00:00:49.726 --> 00:00:52.862
- It is not "holier than thou" attitude.
- 00:00:52.862 --> 00:00:54.831
- It is actually being princely,
- 00:00:54.831 --> 00:00:57.300
- Being the sons and daughters of god.
- 00:00:57.300 --> 00:00:59.502
- God says, "you are now sons and daughters of god.
- 00:00:59.502 --> 00:01:02.639
- Walk worthy of the calling by which he called you."
- 00:01:02.639 --> 00:01:06.276
- God called you for the heavenly call.
- 00:01:06.276 --> 00:01:08.444
- So when people are around you, they sense like they are
- 00:01:08.444 --> 00:01:11.181
- With someone who smells the atmosphere of heaven,
- 00:01:11.181 --> 00:01:14.217
- And yet the person is relatable, the person is homely,
- 00:01:14.217 --> 00:01:17.520
- Yet there is something that will not compromise
- 00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:20.089
- On the morality or the moral atmosphere of that day.
- 00:01:20.089 --> 00:01:24.227
- Can you understand what i'm saying?
- 00:01:24.227 --> 00:01:25.795
- And the word of god is able to bring you to that place.
- 00:01:25.795 --> 00:01:27.931
- When you read god's word, jesus said it like this:
- 00:01:27.931 --> 00:01:29.899
- "sanctify them through thy truth.
- 00:01:29.899 --> 00:01:32.535
- Thy word is truth."
- 00:01:32.535 --> 00:01:34.704
- The word "sanctify" means set apart
- 00:01:34.704 --> 00:01:36.940
- For god's purposes.
- 00:01:36.940 --> 00:01:38.875
- Male announcer: stop for a moment.
- 00:01:38.942 --> 00:01:40.777
- What if god has a word for you today?
- 00:01:40.777 --> 00:01:44.047
- In today's message, joseph reveals
- 00:01:44.047 --> 00:01:45.882
- The life-transforming power of grace
- 00:01:45.882 --> 00:01:48.017
- And shows us the life that we are called to live.
- 00:01:48.017 --> 00:01:51.120
- Joseph prince: "arise and shine, for your light has come,
- 00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.524
- And the glory of the lord has risen upon you,
- 00:01:54.524 --> 00:01:57.527
- For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth
- 00:01:57.527 --> 00:02:00.396
- And deep darkness the people, but the lord will arise over you
- 00:02:00.396 --> 00:02:04.734
- And his glory will be seen upon you."
- 00:02:04.734 --> 00:02:07.470
- Announcer: make this year the year you talk
- 00:02:07.470 --> 00:02:08.838

- And now, here's pastor joseph prince
- 00:02:41.804 --> 00:02:44.207
- With today's program.
- 00:02:44.207 --> 00:02:45.575
- Joseph prince: let me tell you god's heart for you, okay?
- 00:02:45.642 --> 00:02:48.578
- The heart of our father for you is that there's more to life
- 00:02:48.578 --> 00:02:53.049
- Than just living day to day, you know,
- 00:02:53.049 --> 00:02:57.120
- Providing for our children, planning for the future
- 00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.356
- In terms of holidays, you know.
- 00:03:00.356 --> 00:03:02.825
- All this is wonderful.
- 00:03:02.825 --> 00:03:04.360
- It's part and parcel of life.
- 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:05.728
- It's what, you know, makes life enjoyable, amen?
- 00:03:05.728 --> 00:03:11.467
- But god's calling for you is eternal.
- 00:03:11.467 --> 00:03:15.204
- There is an eternal call on you and i
- 00:03:15.204 --> 00:03:17.774
- That goes beyond this life.
- 00:03:17.774 --> 00:03:20.743
- Now, we'll continue our teaching on hesed wisdom, grace wisdom,
- 00:03:20.743 --> 00:03:25.682
- And we have looked at the person of solomon,
- 00:03:25.682 --> 00:03:28.284
- And this is found in 1 kings 4.
- 00:03:28.284 --> 00:03:31.621
- It says, "god gave solomon wisdom
- 00:03:31.621 --> 00:03:34.857
- And exceedingly great understanding,
- 00:03:34.857 --> 00:03:37.460
- And largeness of heart like the sand on the seashore.
- 00:03:37.460 --> 00:03:41.431
- Thus solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom
- 00:03:41.431 --> 00:03:43.533
- Of all the men of the east and all the wisdom of egypt.
- 00:03:43.533 --> 00:03:46.235
- He was wiser than all men-- than ethan and heman,"
- 00:03:46.235 --> 00:03:49.939
- And all the rest,
- 00:03:49.939 --> 00:03:51.274
- And the bible says that all men came to hear
- 00:03:51.274 --> 00:03:54.644
- The wisdom of solomon.
- 00:03:54.644 --> 00:03:57.280
- Now, it tells us very clearly that god gave solomon wisdom.
- 00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:03.486
- If that is how solomon got his wisdom,
- 00:04:03.486 --> 00:04:06.789
- Then you and i can rejoice,
- 00:04:06.789 --> 00:04:08.591
- Because if god gave it to him, god can give it to us.
- 00:04:08.591 --> 00:04:11.828
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:04:11.828 --> 00:04:13.262
- Obviously, wisdom from god is not cultivated by education.
- 00:04:13.262 --> 00:04:20.069
- You know, we study a lot, we educate ourselves,
- 00:04:20.069 --> 00:04:24.040
- But what education does is
- 00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:25.742
- That it helps you accumulate knowledge.
- 00:04:25.742 --> 00:04:29.946
- But wisdom is the ability to use that knowledge
- 00:04:29.946 --> 00:04:34.917
- And not only use the knowledge, because we are very poor,
- 00:04:34.917 --> 00:04:38.054
- We are very limited,
- 00:04:38.054 --> 00:04:39.756
- We are bound if we only use knowledge
- 00:04:39.756 --> 00:04:42.325
- That we know or that we have or we possess.
- 00:04:42.325 --> 00:04:45.895
- But the thing is that god can give us wisdom
- 00:04:45.895 --> 00:04:48.798
- Beyond ourselves, beyond our age,
- 00:04:48.798 --> 00:04:50.733
- Beyond our experience, beyond our education.
- 00:04:50.733 --> 00:04:53.536
- There is something called the spirit of man
- 00:04:53.536 --> 00:04:57.940
- On the inside, and the book of proverbs,
- 00:04:57.940 --> 00:04:59.876
- The book of wisdom, written by solomon,
- 00:04:59.876 --> 00:05:02.678
- By the holy spirit, says this:
- 00:05:02.678 --> 00:05:04.580
- That the spirit of man is the candle of the lord,
- 00:05:04.580 --> 00:05:08.184
- Or the lamp of god.
- 00:05:08.184 --> 00:05:10.319
- "the spirit of man is the candle of the lord."
- 00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:13.423
- God lights up the candle, and then you have inspiration.
- 00:05:13.423 --> 00:05:16.893
- That's why sometimes before you sign something,
- 00:05:16.893 --> 00:05:19.562
- Before you decide on something, before you say yes to something,
- 00:05:19.562 --> 00:05:23.232
- There's something on the inside telling you,
- 00:05:23.232 --> 00:05:24.934
- "no, don't do it.
- 00:05:24.934 --> 00:05:26.269
- There's no peace."
- 00:05:26.269 --> 00:05:28.104
- And it goes beyond your analytical mind.
- 00:05:28.104 --> 00:05:31.207
- Before your mind can analyze,
- 00:05:31.207 --> 00:05:32.775
- Before your mind can do the deductions,
- 00:05:32.775 --> 00:05:34.710
- Before your mind can weigh the pros and the cons,
- 00:05:34.710 --> 00:05:37.847
- Something inside you tells you,
- 00:05:37.847 --> 00:05:39.248
- "no, no, don't get into a relationship
- 00:05:39.248 --> 00:05:40.917
- With this person.
- 00:05:40.917 --> 00:05:42.351
- There's something scratchy on the inside,
- 00:05:42.351 --> 00:05:43.753
- There's no peace."
- 00:05:43.753 --> 00:05:45.087
- And when you obey it, you find that the explanation
- 00:05:45.087 --> 00:05:47.957
- Always comes later.
- 00:05:47.957 --> 00:05:50.126
- The understanding comes later.
- 00:05:50.126 --> 00:05:53.229
- The knowledge comes later.
- 00:05:53.229 --> 00:05:55.531
- But before that, this is faster than your brain.
- 00:05:55.531 --> 00:05:59.869
- This is faster than-- and david says,
- 00:05:59.869 --> 00:06:03.473
- David says in the psalms, "thou hast put wisdom
- 00:06:03.473 --> 00:06:06.843
- In the inward parts."
- 00:06:06.843 --> 00:06:08.945
- God puts wisdom in the inward parts.
- 00:06:08.945 --> 00:06:11.247
- It's not your brain, it's not just your brain.
- 00:06:11.247 --> 00:06:13.616
- God puts wisdom in the inward parts,
- 00:06:13.616 --> 00:06:15.885
- And your inward parts is quicker than your brain.
- 00:06:15.885 --> 00:06:19.989
- You will see things before you understand it, amen.
- 00:06:19.989 --> 00:06:24.360
- How to explain what you see, you cannot explain,
- 00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:27.330
- But you see it.
- 00:06:27.330 --> 00:06:28.664
- And that's what preaching of the word is all about.
- 00:06:28.664 --> 00:06:30.800
- It is preaching things, and then you're able to see
- 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:32.935
- Some things, but it's hard for you to explain.
- 00:06:32.935 --> 00:06:35.238
- But many of times, what my ministry does is that--
- 00:06:35.238 --> 00:06:38.307
- A lot of people say this to me:
- 00:06:38.307 --> 00:06:39.775
- That you put words, you put theology,
- 00:06:39.775 --> 00:06:43.112
- You put explanation to what i already know inside.
- 00:06:43.112 --> 00:06:47.216
- When you explain the god of the bible in the way,
- 00:06:47.216 --> 00:06:50.353
- Actually, i know him to be like that.
- 00:06:50.353 --> 00:06:52.722
- I knew him to be like that.
- 00:06:52.722 --> 00:06:54.357
- But you put words, you give me verses,
- 00:06:54.357 --> 00:06:56.792
- You give me the scriptures that substantiate
- 00:06:56.792 --> 00:07:00.263
- What i already know, and that is true ministry.
- 00:07:00.263 --> 00:07:03.165
- Ministry must confirm what you have in your heart.
- 00:07:03.165 --> 00:07:06.202
- And that's when we share truth, it resonates with your spirit.
- 00:07:06.202 --> 00:07:09.438
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:07:09.438 --> 00:07:11.474
- And the bible teaches us, let's look at--
- 00:07:11.474 --> 00:07:14.810
- If god gives solomon, where does this giving take place?
- 00:07:14.810 --> 00:07:18.948
- How does it come to us?
- 00:07:18.948 --> 00:07:21.450
- In proverbs chapter 2, it says, "for the lord,"
- 00:07:21.450 --> 00:07:23.886
- Let's all read together, "for the lord gives wisdom.
- 00:07:23.886 --> 00:07:28.391
- From his mouth come knowledge and understanding."
- 00:07:28.391 --> 00:07:32.194
- The lord gives what? wisdom.
- 00:07:32.194 --> 00:07:34.864
- Now, the next three words, say it together, "from--"
- 00:07:34.864 --> 00:07:38.634
- Congregation: from.
- 00:07:38.634 --> 00:07:39.969
- Joseph prince: again. congregation: from his mouth.
- 00:07:39.969 --> 00:07:41.671
- Joseph prince: again. congregation: from his mouth.
- 00:07:41.737 --> 00:07:43.940
- Joseph prince: "from his mouth."
- 00:07:43.940 --> 00:07:47.643
- The bible is god-breathed.
- 00:07:47.643 --> 00:07:51.213
- The bible is god-breathed.
- 00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:52.882
- 2 timothy 3 tells us this: "but evil men--"
- 00:07:52.882 --> 00:07:58.888
- Drop down to verse 7--16.
- 00:07:58.888 --> 00:08:01.857
- "all scripture is given by inspiration of god."
- 00:08:01.857 --> 00:08:07.163
- The word "inspiration of god" is the word "theos."
- 00:08:07.163 --> 00:08:11.734
- The word "theos" means god.
- 00:08:11.734 --> 00:08:13.669
- "pneustos," which is breathe.
- 00:08:13.669 --> 00:08:16.472
- "all scripture in the bible is god-breathed,
- 00:08:16.472 --> 00:08:19.842
- And god made man from the dust of the ground."
- 00:08:19.842 --> 00:08:22.945
- That's his body.
- 00:08:22.945 --> 00:08:24.280
- So man was like a mannequin, and god breathed into man,
- 00:08:24.280 --> 00:08:29.652
- And man became a living soul.
- 00:08:29.652 --> 00:08:31.520
- It was the breath of god that made man a living soul.
- 00:08:31.520 --> 00:08:34.824
- And all scripture is god-breathed.
- 00:08:34.824 --> 00:08:37.159
- That's why man does not live by bread alone,
- 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.028
- But by every word that proceeds from the mouth of god.
- 00:08:39.028 --> 00:08:43.733
- If this is god-breathed, our very existence,
- 00:08:43.733 --> 00:08:46.869
- Our life, even our health depends on the word of god.
- 00:08:46.869 --> 00:08:51.173
- If we are lacking in that life force,
- 00:08:51.173 --> 00:08:53.175
- In that health, amen, then we can go to the word
- 00:08:53.175 --> 00:08:56.312
- Because god's breath is all over this word, amen.
- 00:08:56.312 --> 00:08:59.548
- We can breathe in the breath of god
- 00:08:59.548 --> 00:09:01.150
- That gave us life in the first place.
- 00:09:01.150 --> 00:09:02.718
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:09:02.718 --> 00:09:04.220
- Amen, and that's what the bible says.
- 00:09:04.220 --> 00:09:05.988
- You know, when you spend time reading,
- 00:09:05.988 --> 00:09:07.323
- I know one person who was diagnosed
- 00:09:07.323 --> 00:09:09.558
- With a tumor of the jaw, and it was a malignant tumor.
- 00:09:09.558 --> 00:09:13.663
- And i don't even believe he was a christian,
- 00:09:13.663 --> 00:09:16.332
- But he went home, he was quite depressed,
- 00:09:16.332 --> 00:09:19.101
- And he told his wife, "can you bring me the bible?"
- 00:09:19.101 --> 00:09:21.704
- All of a sudden, you know, the wife was quite puzzled
- 00:09:21.704 --> 00:09:23.472
- Because he never reads the bible.
- 00:09:23.472 --> 00:09:24.940
- So she brought the bible to him,
- 00:09:24.940 --> 00:09:26.609
- And he started reading the bible.
- 00:09:26.609 --> 00:09:28.411
- So from one day of reading, became another day of reading,
- 00:09:28.411 --> 00:09:31.714
- Become a protracted times of reading.
- 00:09:31.714 --> 00:09:34.050
- He got interested in the stories,
- 00:09:34.050 --> 00:09:35.384
- He started reading the bible.
- 00:09:35.384 --> 00:09:36.852
- He sort of forgot about his symptoms and all that.
- 00:09:36.852 --> 00:09:39.522
- In due course, he found that the symptoms
- 00:09:39.522 --> 00:09:41.457
- Got lesser and lesser as he read the bible more.
- 00:09:41.457 --> 00:09:44.560
- Then one day he went back to the doctor
- 00:09:44.560 --> 00:09:45.895
- And the doctor says, "i can't explain it,
- 00:09:45.895 --> 00:09:48.164
- But it seems like it has gone into remission
- 00:09:48.164 --> 00:09:50.566
- Or the condition is no longer there,
- 00:09:50.566 --> 00:09:53.135
- But probably it will not last."
- 00:09:53.135 --> 00:09:55.004
- Well, since that happened until now,
- 00:09:55.004 --> 00:09:57.006
- Many years have come and gone, and it's never returned.
- 00:09:57.006 --> 00:10:00.276
- Just spending time in the word,
- 00:10:00.276 --> 00:10:01.777
- There is a breath that first gave you life, amen.
- 00:10:01.777 --> 00:10:06.716
- And that's why in proverbs 4, verse 22,
- 00:10:06.716 --> 00:10:09.819
- It says about god's words, "they," they, god's words,
- 00:10:09.819 --> 00:10:12.855
- "are life to those who find them,
- 00:10:12.855 --> 00:10:15.691
- And health--" to how much of their flesh?
- 00:10:15.691 --> 00:10:19.161
- "to all their flesh."
- 00:10:19.161 --> 00:10:20.596
- So spending time in god's word is able to give you
- 00:10:20.596 --> 00:10:23.466
- Life and health to all your body.
- 00:10:23.466 --> 00:10:26.836
- No, don't try to spiritualize this.
- 00:10:26.836 --> 00:10:29.472
- It doesn't say "health to your spirit."
- 00:10:29.472 --> 00:10:31.674
- It's health to all, to all your flesh, amen.
- 00:10:31.674 --> 00:10:36.645
- Some medicines are specifically targeted
- 00:10:36.645 --> 00:10:39.715
- Like a magic bullet for one particular organ,
- 00:10:39.715 --> 00:10:42.318
- One particular condition,
- 00:10:42.318 --> 00:10:43.953
- But god's words is the only medicine
- 00:10:43.953 --> 00:10:45.988
- That is health to all our flesh.
- 00:10:45.988 --> 00:10:49.525
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:10:49.525 --> 00:10:50.893
- And going back to 2 timothy, it tells us about the end-times.
- 00:10:50.893 --> 00:10:55.064
- You go back, verses earlier, verse 13.
- 00:10:55.064 --> 00:10:57.500
- It tells us about the time, this is paul's swan song.
- 00:10:57.500 --> 00:11:00.236
- It was the last letter that paul wrote.
- 00:11:00.236 --> 00:11:02.471
- He said, "i fought a good fight in this letter.
- 00:11:02.471 --> 00:11:04.807
- I've kept the faith. i've finished my course."
- 00:11:04.807 --> 00:11:07.710
- Paul's race is up.
- 00:11:07.710 --> 00:11:09.411
- He wants to meet the lord,
- 00:11:09.411 --> 00:11:10.813
- And it's the last letter he wrote.
- 00:11:10.813 --> 00:11:12.982
- And he talks about the times that we'll live in.
- 00:11:12.982 --> 00:11:15.484
- He talks about our times.
- 00:11:15.484 --> 00:11:17.153
- He prophesied about the future,
- 00:11:17.153 --> 00:11:18.521
- And this is what he said: "but evil men and impostors
- 00:11:18.521 --> 00:11:21.490
- Will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived."
- 00:11:21.490 --> 00:11:25.828
- Isn't it true that even though we evangelize
- 00:11:25.828 --> 00:11:28.230
- And we try to reach as many people as possible
- 00:11:28.230 --> 00:11:30.099
- With the gospel of jesus christ, and thank god,
- 00:11:30.099 --> 00:11:32.268
- Many are responding, amen?
- 00:11:32.268 --> 00:11:34.303
- Many are responding to the gospel.
- 00:11:34.303 --> 00:11:35.704
- But then, the fact remains that in the world,
- 00:11:35.704 --> 00:11:39.275
- Paul prophesied in the days that you and i live in,
- 00:11:39.275 --> 00:11:42.144
- "evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse."
- 00:11:42.144 --> 00:11:46.849
- They will deceive and people will be deceived.
- 00:11:46.849 --> 00:11:50.886
- Don't be deceived. how can we not be deceived?
- 00:11:50.886 --> 00:11:54.123
- You know, today we live in a world where wrong is right
- 00:11:54.123 --> 00:11:56.959
- And right is wrong.
- 00:11:56.959 --> 00:11:58.727
- They are redefining a lot of things,
- 00:11:58.727 --> 00:12:00.830
- And our children are confused
- 00:12:00.830 --> 00:12:02.364
- If we don't give them definitions about life, amen.
- 00:12:02.364 --> 00:12:07.002
- Even the definition of holiness, for example.
- 00:12:07.002 --> 00:12:10.606
- Holiness is not just, oh, you know, you live
- 00:12:10.606 --> 00:12:15.244
- In such a way that you look down on other people.
- 00:12:15.244 --> 00:12:17.713
- You know, people have this idea of holiness
- 00:12:17.713 --> 00:12:19.048
- Like "i'm holier than you.
- 00:12:19.048 --> 00:12:20.683
- Stay your ground, don't come near me.
- 00:12:20.683 --> 00:12:23.052
- I'm holier than you."
- 00:12:23.052 --> 00:12:24.386
- No, this stinking pride, amen, this pharisaical.
- 00:12:24.386 --> 00:12:27.990
- This is what jesus came against, amen.
- 00:12:27.990 --> 00:12:31.460
- Jesus's holiness was such that he never compromised on sin.
- 00:12:31.460 --> 00:12:37.600
- He never compromised.
- 00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:38.968
- He never came down to the level of people he ministered to,
- 00:12:38.968 --> 00:12:41.470
- Yet he moves amongst them as one of them.
- 00:12:41.470 --> 00:12:46.175
- The appellation that the pharisees
- 00:12:46.175 --> 00:12:47.910
- Put against him was meant to insult.
- 00:12:47.910 --> 00:12:50.880
- They call him "the friend of sinners,"
- 00:12:50.880 --> 00:12:53.916
- And yet it became a most glorious brand of grace
- 00:12:53.916 --> 00:12:57.419
- That he would wear everywhere he goes, amen?
- 00:12:57.419 --> 00:12:59.688
- A friend of sinners.
- 00:12:59.688 --> 00:13:01.523
- What a wonderful appellation, amen, of our lord jesus.
- 00:13:01.523 --> 00:13:05.494
- But his holiness wasn't such that, you know,
- 00:13:05.494 --> 00:13:08.898
- It's like holier than thou, "don't come near me."
- 00:13:08.898 --> 00:13:10.699
- In fact, he invited them to come to him.
- 00:13:10.699 --> 00:13:12.868
- He touched the leper and they were cleansed.
- 00:13:12.868 --> 00:13:15.137
- He cast out demons.
- 00:13:15.137 --> 00:13:16.772
- He ministered healing to the blind.
- 00:13:16.772 --> 00:13:19.975
- He raised the dead.
- 00:13:19.975 --> 00:13:21.310
- And he moved amongst them, blessing them, always healing,
- 00:13:21.310 --> 00:13:25.080
- Always repairing, always lifting,
- 00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:27.449
- Always encouraging, always showing god to them,
- 00:13:27.449 --> 00:13:31.787
- What god really is like, and that's holiness.
- 00:13:31.787 --> 00:13:34.290
- Holiness is uncommonness.
- 00:13:34.290 --> 00:13:37.793
- The opposite of holiness is not sin.
- 00:13:37.793 --> 00:13:40.262
- The opposite of holiness is common, commonness.
- 00:13:40.262 --> 00:13:44.934
- So when god says, "i make you holy,"
- 00:13:44.934 --> 00:13:47.136
- Even in the hebrew, the word "kadosh,"
- 00:13:47.136 --> 00:13:50.472
- And in the greek for holiness, "hagios,"
- 00:13:50.472 --> 00:13:53.409
- It all means "set apart."
- 00:13:53.409 --> 00:13:55.611
- There are some things in your house,
- 00:13:55.611 --> 00:13:57.646
- It is so special, you set it apart,
- 00:13:57.646 --> 00:14:00.082
- Under lock and key, amen?
- 00:14:00.082 --> 00:14:03.118
- Even your clothes that you like,
- 00:14:03.118 --> 00:14:04.453
- You separate them from other clothes
- 00:14:04.453 --> 00:14:06.355
- Because you know that it cannot get crumpled
- 00:14:06.355 --> 00:14:08.757
- Like other clothes-- it's special and all that--
- 00:14:08.757 --> 00:14:10.759
- Because you value them.
- 00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:12.161
- Well, holiness means set apart
- 00:14:12.161 --> 00:14:14.263
- For god's purposes and plans, amen.
- 00:14:14.263 --> 00:14:17.433
- It is not "holier than thou" attitude.
- 00:14:17.433 --> 00:14:19.401
- It is actually being princely,
- 00:14:19.401 --> 00:14:21.904
- Being the sons and daughters of god.
- 00:14:21.904 --> 00:14:24.106
- God says, "you are now sons and daughters of god.
- 00:14:24.106 --> 00:14:27.209
- Walk worthy of the calling by which he called you."
- 00:14:27.209 --> 00:14:30.879
- God called you for the heavenly call.
- 00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:33.015
- So when people are around you,
- 00:14:33.015 --> 00:14:34.516
- They sense, like, they are with someone
- 00:14:34.516 --> 00:14:36.785
- Who smells the atmosphere of heaven,
- 00:14:36.785 --> 00:14:38.721
- And yet the person is relatable, the person is homely,
- 00:14:38.721 --> 00:14:42.224
- Yet there is something that will not compromise
- 00:14:42.224 --> 00:14:44.660
- On the morality or the moral atmosphere
- 00:14:44.660 --> 00:14:48.063
- Of that day.
- 00:14:48.063 --> 00:14:49.398
- Can you understand what i'm saying?
- 00:14:49.398 --> 00:14:50.733
- And the word of god is able to bring you to that place.
- 00:14:50.733 --> 00:14:52.501
- When you read god's word, jesus said it like this:
- 00:14:52.501 --> 00:14:54.503
- "sanctify them through thy truth.
- 00:14:54.503 --> 00:14:57.106
- Thy word is truth."
- 00:14:57.106 --> 00:15:00.943
- And then he said this: "for their sakes,
- 00:15:00.943 --> 00:15:02.778
- I sanctify myself."
- 00:15:02.778 --> 00:15:04.113
- So if sanctification is just as "don't sin,"
- 00:15:04.113 --> 00:15:05.948
- Some people say holiness means "don't sin."
- 00:15:05.948 --> 00:15:07.816
- If that is defined as holiness or sanctification,
- 00:15:07.816 --> 00:15:10.652
- Then what did jesus mean when he say,
- 00:15:10.652 --> 00:15:12.521
- "for their sakes, i sanctify myself?"
- 00:15:12.521 --> 00:15:15.124
- Jesus has no sin.
- 00:15:15.124 --> 00:15:16.658
- No, the word "sanctify" means set apart for god's purposes.
- 00:15:16.658 --> 00:15:21.096
- That means you become uncommon.
- 00:15:21.096 --> 00:15:22.898
- We live in a world where there's a lot of theories
- 00:15:22.898 --> 00:15:25.567
- And, you know, suppositions,
- 00:15:25.567 --> 00:15:28.037
- But the bible says, "in the beginning,
- 00:15:28.037 --> 00:15:29.938
- God created the heavens and the earth," amen.
- 00:15:29.938 --> 00:15:33.742
- And that's why you have something more
- 00:15:33.742 --> 00:15:35.210
- Than just a brain.
- 00:15:35.210 --> 00:15:36.578
- You have a gut feel, an instinct,
- 00:15:36.578 --> 00:15:39.148
- You know things, amen.
- 00:15:39.148 --> 00:15:40.949
- And with the holy spirit there, you know even better.
- 00:15:40.949 --> 00:15:43.485
- You are acute, you are sharp, praise the lord.
- 00:15:43.485 --> 00:15:46.088
- We are called to live life
- 00:15:46.088 --> 00:15:48.057
- More than just our physical needs
- 00:15:48.057 --> 00:15:49.558
- Being fulfilled, being satisfied.
- 00:15:49.558 --> 00:15:52.361
- We know that that doesn't satisfy us deep down
- 00:15:52.361 --> 00:15:54.663
- On the inside,
- 00:15:54.663 --> 00:15:55.998
- Because we are more than just a soul and a body,
- 00:15:55.998 --> 00:15:57.699
- We are a spirit being.
- 00:15:57.699 --> 00:16:00.502
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:16:00.502 --> 00:16:02.204
- So the lord gives wisdom, amen?
- 00:16:02.204 --> 00:16:05.274
- And it says that what must you do when--
- 00:16:05.274 --> 00:16:07.576
- In a world of deceiving and being deceived?
- 00:16:07.576 --> 00:16:09.878
- "you must continue in the things which you have learned
- 00:16:09.878 --> 00:16:12.781
- And been assured of,
- 00:16:12.781 --> 00:16:14.116
- Knowing from whom you have learned them,
- 00:16:14.116 --> 00:16:16.351
- And that from childhood,
- 00:16:16.351 --> 00:16:17.886
- You have known the holy scriptures."
- 00:16:17.886 --> 00:16:19.822
- Paul is writing to timothy telling him,
- 00:16:19.822 --> 00:16:21.790
- "remember this?"
- 00:16:21.790 --> 00:16:23.125
- Right, from childhood, you have known the holy scriptures,
- 00:16:23.125 --> 00:16:25.494
- The word of god,
- 00:16:25.494 --> 00:16:26.829
- The holy scriptures that is breathed by god.
- 00:16:26.829 --> 00:16:29.198
- These holy scriptures are "able to make you wise
- 00:16:29.198 --> 00:16:32.734
- For salvation through faith which is in christ jesus."
- 00:16:32.734 --> 00:16:36.905
- And the word--"which are able to make you wise."
- 00:16:36.905 --> 00:16:40.242
- The word "able" there is dynamite, dynamic, dynamo.
- 00:16:40.242 --> 00:16:45.247
- It's from the word "dunamis."
- 00:16:45.247 --> 00:16:47.749
- It is able to dynamite you into wisdom.
- 00:16:47.749 --> 00:16:52.254
- It is able to empower you. it's able to make you wise.
- 00:16:52.254 --> 00:16:56.091
- Actually, the word "to make you wise"
- 00:16:56.091 --> 00:16:57.426
- Is one greek word, "sophizo" or "sophizo."
- 00:16:57.426 --> 00:17:00.195
- The word "sophia" in the verb form is "sophizo."
- 00:17:00.195 --> 00:17:03.465
- It's able to make you sophia, it's able to make you wise.
- 00:17:03.465 --> 00:17:06.401
- By the way, "sophia" is the hebrew for "chokmah,"
- 00:17:06.401 --> 00:17:11.273
- For wisdom.
- 00:17:11.273 --> 00:17:12.608
- The most frequently used word for wisdom
- 00:17:12.608 --> 00:17:14.042
- In the old testament is chokmah.
- 00:17:14.042 --> 00:17:16.044
- In the greek translation,
- 00:17:16.044 --> 00:17:17.546
- The septuagint of the old testament,
- 00:17:17.546 --> 00:17:18.881
- Where it says "chokmah," it says "sophia," right?
- 00:17:18.881 --> 00:17:22.451
- Sophia is chokmah in hebrew,
- 00:17:22.451 --> 00:17:24.553
- Which is the wisdom that god gives.
- 00:17:24.553 --> 00:17:27.890
- Now, there's wisdom that god gives to the world
- 00:17:27.890 --> 00:17:29.825
- As well, to govern the earth, to govern the nations,
- 00:17:29.825 --> 00:17:33.028
- To come up with innovative ideas
- 00:17:33.028 --> 00:17:34.796
- For the betterment of mankind's life.
- 00:17:34.796 --> 00:17:37.099
- You know, there's a wisdom that god--
- 00:17:37.099 --> 00:17:39.034
- God causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust,
- 00:17:39.034 --> 00:17:41.637
- His sun to shine on the righteous
- 00:17:41.637 --> 00:17:43.372
- And the unrighteous, but there's a wisdom
- 00:17:43.372 --> 00:17:45.774
- That god gives only to his children.
- 00:17:45.774 --> 00:17:48.944
- And this comes from the scriptures,
- 00:17:48.944 --> 00:17:50.479
- Which are able to make you wise.
- 00:17:50.479 --> 00:17:53.415
- That is our life.
- 00:17:53.415 --> 00:17:54.750
- That is the calling of true holiness.
- 00:17:54.750 --> 00:17:56.652
- Holiness is uncommonness.
- 00:17:56.652 --> 00:17:58.820
- So dare to be a daniel, dare to be an esther.
- 00:17:58.820 --> 00:18:02.524
- In the world that compromises, you don't.
- 00:18:02.524 --> 00:18:05.827
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:18:05.827 --> 00:18:07.629
- So, the word of god is able-- go back again to 2 timothy--
- 00:18:07.629 --> 00:18:10.732
- "able to make you wise for salvation through faith,
- 00:18:10.732 --> 00:18:13.468
- Which is in christ jesus."
- 00:18:13.468 --> 00:18:15.103
- Let's suppose one day you're reading god's word.
- 00:18:15.103 --> 00:18:16.738
- Not only it has this holy effect,
- 00:18:16.738 --> 00:18:19.308
- Sanctifying effect, sometimes you can feel it,
- 00:18:19.308 --> 00:18:21.543
- But don't depend on feeling.
- 00:18:21.543 --> 00:18:23.111
- When you are sick, the best thing to do is
- 00:18:23.111 --> 00:18:24.680
- To spend time-- is be at home, right?
- 00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:27.182
- Or sometimes in the hospital, rib, rest in bed.
- 00:18:27.182 --> 00:18:30.185
- C-r-i-b, crib, completely rest in bed.
- 00:18:30.185 --> 00:18:34.122
- You've got plenty of time to read, amen.
- 00:18:34.122 --> 00:18:35.891
- You can relax, you can just read,
- 00:18:35.891 --> 00:18:37.326
- And the world we live in today, even in the dark,
- 00:18:37.326 --> 00:18:40.362
- You can read without, you know,
- 00:18:40.362 --> 00:18:41.730
- Disturbing your wife or your husband.
- 00:18:41.730 --> 00:18:43.465
- But reading is a lost art.
- 00:18:43.465 --> 00:18:45.567
- When you spend time reading the word of god,
- 00:18:45.567 --> 00:18:47.236
- It has an effect of life and therapeutic and healing.
- 00:18:47.236 --> 00:18:54.076
- We learned that just now.
- 00:18:54.076 --> 00:18:55.410
- Not only that, it has an impartation of wisdom.
- 00:18:55.410 --> 00:18:58.647
- You're no more the same.
- 00:18:58.647 --> 00:19:00.182
- You don't have to understand everything.
- 00:19:00.182 --> 00:19:02.017
- When a child washes his hands,
- 00:19:02.017 --> 00:19:04.620
- He doesn't know all the components of h2o
- 00:19:04.620 --> 00:19:08.690
- And all the chemicals that make up the water and whatnot.
- 00:19:08.690 --> 00:19:13.161
- All he has to do is to use it.
- 00:19:13.161 --> 00:19:15.831
- God's word is not for you to understand everything.
- 00:19:15.831 --> 00:19:18.233
- I don't understand everything.
- 00:19:18.233 --> 00:19:19.701
- I'm still learning, like every one of you.
- 00:19:19.701 --> 00:19:22.070
- At the age of 35, thank god i still have a lot more to go.
- 00:19:22.070 --> 00:19:25.107
- But, you know, when you wash your hands,
- 00:19:25.107 --> 00:19:27.709
- The boy doesn't understand everything.
- 00:19:27.709 --> 00:19:29.811
- Are his hands still clean?
- 00:19:29.811 --> 00:19:32.080
- Yes, amen. just use it.
- 00:19:32.080 --> 00:19:34.916
- If you read god's word, it has a cleansing effect.
- 00:19:34.916 --> 00:19:37.185
- It has a healing effect.
- 00:19:37.185 --> 00:19:39.288
- The word "rapha," it comes from the hebrew word.
- 00:19:39.288 --> 00:19:43.191
- The root word is "rapha," which is let go, relax.
- 00:19:43.191 --> 00:19:47.429
- I don't know-- i can't explain to you.
- 00:19:47.429 --> 00:19:49.064
- It's not like when i read god's word,
- 00:19:49.064 --> 00:19:50.699
- Straight away i get healed, but there's a relaxing effect.
- 00:19:50.699 --> 00:19:53.969
- I start feeling like, you know, i'm in touch with reality,
- 00:19:53.969 --> 00:19:57.105
- I'm in touch with the truth,
- 00:19:57.105 --> 00:19:58.440
- Yet there's some very, i would say,
- 00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:01.410
- Even gory details and violence in the bible.
- 00:20:01.410 --> 00:20:03.578
- Yet there is a beauty in how it all turns out
- 00:20:03.578 --> 00:20:06.648
- That sort of has a therapeutic effect on me
- 00:20:06.648 --> 00:20:09.918
- When i see god in it.
- 00:20:09.918 --> 00:20:12.120
- I get hope, i find courage, amen.
- 00:20:12.120 --> 00:20:16.458
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:20:16.458 --> 00:20:18.660
- Supposing you're reading one day
- 00:20:18.660 --> 00:20:20.095
- And you're about to confront your husband
- 00:20:20.095 --> 00:20:21.663
- About some bad habit he has or, you know, something,
- 00:20:21.663 --> 00:20:24.299
- Or you're about to confront
- 00:20:24.299 --> 00:20:25.867
- Your teenage boy about something and all that,
- 00:20:25.867 --> 00:20:27.636
- And you are reading your bible for that day.
- 00:20:27.636 --> 00:20:28.970
- I'm just giving you an example of sophizo,
- 00:20:28.970 --> 00:20:31.073
- How god's word is able to make you wise.
- 00:20:31.073 --> 00:20:32.774
- And let's say you're about to give
- 00:20:32.774 --> 00:20:34.209
- The tough approach, you know?
- 00:20:34.209 --> 00:20:36.378
- Or you might be a young person, you're wondering
- 00:20:36.378 --> 00:20:37.979
- What kind of speech you should have,
- 00:20:37.979 --> 00:20:39.348
- Because all your friends are using profanity
- 00:20:39.348 --> 00:20:41.183
- And vulgarity and it's kind of cool,
- 00:20:41.183 --> 00:20:43.752
- And you don't use it means you're out of it,
- 00:20:43.752 --> 00:20:45.854
- You're not cool and all that, you know?
- 00:20:45.854 --> 00:20:47.656
- And you're wondering what kind of speech to have.
- 00:20:47.656 --> 00:20:52.060
- Well, one day you're reading the word of god
- 00:20:52.060 --> 00:20:53.995
- And you're wondering how to influence this person
- 00:20:53.995 --> 00:20:57.065
- Who is a person of influence himself, okay?
- 00:20:57.065 --> 00:21:00.068
- Whatever it is, then you come to proverbs 25.
- 00:21:00.068 --> 00:21:02.504
- You are reading this.
- 00:21:02.504 --> 00:21:03.839
- "by long forbearing is a prince persuaded,
- 00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:07.676
- And a soft tongue breaketh the bone."
- 00:21:07.676 --> 00:21:11.546
- So, you're reading this and you're wondering,
- 00:21:11.546 --> 00:21:13.682
- I'm waiting for an interview, i'm meeting up with my boss,
- 00:21:13.682 --> 00:21:15.984
- I wanna talk to my boss about this or whatever.
- 00:21:15.984 --> 00:21:17.819
- How do i impact this person of influence?
- 00:21:17.819 --> 00:21:20.956
- And god is saying, "by long forbearing."
- 00:21:20.956 --> 00:21:23.992
- Or you wanna talk to your husband or your wife,
- 00:21:23.992 --> 00:21:26.461
- And you know, many times when you get aggravated,
- 00:21:26.461 --> 00:21:29.264
- Your flesh is getting aggravated.
- 00:21:29.264 --> 00:21:30.665
- It's not your spirit, right?
- 00:21:30.665 --> 00:21:32.000
- Your flesh is getting aggravated.
- 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:33.468
- You can never impact someone
- 00:21:33.468 --> 00:21:35.837
- When your flesh is being aggravated.
- 00:21:35.837 --> 00:21:37.606
- Flesh activates flesh,
- 00:21:37.606 --> 00:21:39.408
- And then the flesh activates the flesh,
- 00:21:39.408 --> 00:21:41.076
- And then in return, the flesh activates the flesh.
- 00:21:41.076 --> 00:21:42.778
- That's how husbands and wives fight, amen?
- 00:21:42.778 --> 00:21:46.548
- Somewhere along the way, someone needs to have long forbearing.
- 00:21:46.548 --> 00:21:50.285
- Long forbearing means what?
- 00:21:50.285 --> 00:21:52.154
- The two bears you must have in your marriage is
- 00:21:52.154 --> 00:21:53.688
- Bear and forbear.
- 00:21:53.688 --> 00:21:55.390
- And if she wants to bring along,
- 00:21:55.390 --> 00:21:56.725
- She can bring winnie the pooh bear, all right?
- 00:21:56.725 --> 00:22:00.061
- But if someone is long forbearing,
- 00:22:00.061 --> 00:22:02.431
- You listen to the person, you let your husband say it out,
- 00:22:02.431 --> 00:22:05.500
- Talk it out, or you let your wife share her heart out.
- 00:22:05.500 --> 00:22:08.770
- Just like the queen of sheba,
- 00:22:08.770 --> 00:22:10.372
- She came to king solomon, and the bible says,
- 00:22:10.372 --> 00:22:13.575
- "she asked him all the hard questions
- 00:22:13.575 --> 00:22:15.911
- That's on her heart."
- 00:22:15.911 --> 00:22:17.612
- The king here is a picture of jesus christ,
- 00:22:17.612 --> 00:22:19.448
- Our king, who is greater than solomon.
- 00:22:19.448 --> 00:22:22.083
- What's the response from the king
- 00:22:22.083 --> 00:22:23.618
- When you reveal your heart to him?
- 00:22:23.618 --> 00:22:25.420
- The bible says, "there was not a thing
- 00:22:25.420 --> 00:22:27.722
- That solomon did not answer her or reveal to her
- 00:22:27.722 --> 00:22:31.126
- That was on his heart."
- 00:22:31.126 --> 00:22:32.961
- In other words, when you come to god,
- 00:22:32.961 --> 00:22:34.596
- Don't come with this protocol prayer.
- 00:22:34.596 --> 00:22:36.832
- "oh, almighty god, we know you're the great one,
- 00:22:36.832 --> 00:22:40.035
- And we come to you," you know,
- 00:22:40.035 --> 00:22:41.436
- And god is like, "dang, angel, what is he talking about?"
- 00:22:41.436 --> 00:22:45.707
- Angel says, "lord, in a matter of time
- 00:22:45.707 --> 00:22:47.175
- He'll give up."
- 00:22:47.175 --> 00:22:48.543
- No, come to god, "abba, father,"
- 00:22:48.543 --> 00:22:50.512
- And then tell him your worries and your cares.
- 00:22:50.512 --> 00:22:52.981
- Tell him, "i'm worried about this, about my son.
- 00:22:52.981 --> 00:22:54.950
- I'm worried about this.
- 00:22:54.950 --> 00:22:56.284
- I have this fear about this symptom in my body.
- 00:22:56.284 --> 00:22:58.220
- I've got this concern about this.
- 00:22:58.220 --> 00:23:00.355
- I'm afraid i'm losing my mind.
- 00:23:00.355 --> 00:23:01.690
- I'm afraid of--" whatever it is, tell the lord,
- 00:23:01.690 --> 00:23:03.658
- Pour out your heart like queen of sheba did.
- 00:23:03.658 --> 00:23:05.861
- She poured out all her hard questions
- 00:23:05.861 --> 00:23:07.262
- That's on her heart to king solomon,
- 00:23:07.262 --> 00:23:09.564
- And the king, in turn, did not hold back one thing
- 00:23:09.564 --> 00:23:13.468
- That was on his heart in terms of the answers.
- 00:23:13.468 --> 00:23:16.404
- So as you open up to the lord, many a times i find--
- 00:23:16.404 --> 00:23:19.241
- I may take a walk
- 00:23:19.241 --> 00:23:20.575
- And just pour out my heart to the lord,
- 00:23:20.575 --> 00:23:21.910
- Things that you cannot even reveal to your best friend.
- 00:23:21.910 --> 00:23:23.678
- Things that are so intimate, you just tell god.
- 00:23:23.678 --> 00:23:26.014
- The more honest you are,
- 00:23:26.014 --> 00:23:27.449
- The more you'll find this experience an amazing one,
- 00:23:27.449 --> 00:23:30.018
- Because you'll find god's response,
- 00:23:30.018 --> 00:23:31.486
- And it comes back like a peace.
- 00:23:31.486 --> 00:23:34.322
- Sometimes it may not come then and there,
- 00:23:34.322 --> 00:23:36.157
- But the answer comes the next day,
- 00:23:36.157 --> 00:23:38.360
- Or the day after.
- 00:23:38.360 --> 00:23:39.694
- It will come.
- 00:23:39.694 --> 00:23:41.029
- As you pour out your heart, you expose your heart to the lord,
- 00:23:41.029 --> 00:23:42.998
- The lord opens up his heart to you,
- 00:23:42.998 --> 00:23:45.100
- And he gives you the secrets of his heart.
- 00:23:45.100 --> 00:23:47.435
- Can i have a good amen?
- 00:23:47.435 --> 00:23:49.604
