>> joseph prince: we need to
00:00:13.022 --> 00:00:13.756
>> joseph prince: we need to understand how the devil works,
00:00:13.823 --> 00:00:14.858
Understand how the devil works, because we will be aware of
00:00:14.924 --> 00:00:17.594
Because we will be aware of those areas and then we know how
00:00:17.660 --> 00:00:19.195
Those areas and then we know how to avoid it, but long before he
00:00:19.262 --> 00:00:20.897
To avoid it, but long before he can steal, kill, and destroy
00:00:20.964 --> 00:00:22.132
Can steal, kill, and destroy because he need to affirm, yes,
00:00:22.198 --> 00:00:24.400
Because he need to affirm, yes, you feel guilty, you accept it.
00:00:24.467 --> 00:00:25.835
You feel guilty, you accept it. in essence, what you're
00:00:25.902 --> 00:00:26.936
In essence, what you're saying--you don't realize.
00:00:27.003 --> 00:00:27.837
Saying--you don't realize. when you accept accusation,
00:00:27.904 --> 00:00:29.172
When you accept accusation, you're saying, jesus,
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:30.006
You're saying, jesus, you didn't do a good job.
00:00:30.073 --> 00:00:31.374
You didn't do a good job. it's not finished.
00:00:31.441 --> 00:00:32.408
It's not finished. god, you didn't--you're not
00:00:32.475 --> 00:00:33.676
God, you didn't--you're not satisfied with what jesus did,
00:00:33.743 --> 00:00:36.446
Satisfied with what jesus did, and devil, you're right.
00:00:36.513 --> 00:00:38.515
And devil, you're right. that's what you're saying.
00:00:38.581 --> 00:00:41.417
That's what you're saying. so what's the defense?
00:00:41.484 --> 00:00:43.086
So what's the defense? the defense is in the gospel.
00:00:43.153 --> 00:00:44.487
The defense is in the gospel. we confess, i am the
00:00:44.554 --> 00:00:46.156
We confess, i am the righteousness of god in christ.
00:00:46.222 --> 00:00:47.857
Righteousness of god in christ. righteousness is to declare you
00:00:47.924 --> 00:00:49.826
Righteousness is to declare you justified.
00:00:49.893 --> 00:00:51.027
Justified. it is unrighteousness to declare
00:00:51.094 --> 00:00:52.529
It is unrighteousness to declare yourself not justified.
00:00:52.595 --> 00:00:54.130
Yourself not justified. what comes on the heels
00:00:54.197 --> 00:00:54.831
What comes on the heels of righteousness?
00:00:54.898 --> 00:00:55.798
Of righteousness? health, wholeness, peace,
00:00:55.865 --> 00:00:59.102
Health, wholeness, peace, stability, poise, power.
00:00:59.169 --> 00:01:02.172
>> female announcer: have you
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:04.040
>> female announcer: have you ever struggled with mind games
00:01:04.107 --> 00:01:05.241
Ever struggled with mind games you can't shake off?
00:01:05.308 --> 00:01:07.043
You can't shake off? or felt troubled and weighed
00:01:07.110 --> 00:01:08.278
Or felt troubled and weighed down by life's challenges?
00:01:08.344 --> 00:01:10.613
Down by life's challenges? in today's message,
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:11.848
In today's message, joseph prince shares
00:01:11.915 --> 00:01:13.349
Joseph prince shares god's solution for experiencing
00:01:13.416 --> 00:01:15.051
God's solution for experiencing peace in your mind
00:01:15.118 --> 00:01:16.419
Peace in your mind and victory over every defeat.
00:01:16.486 --> 00:01:18.888
And now, here is
00:01:18.955 --> 00:01:19.589
And now, here is pastor joseph prince
00:01:19.656 --> 00:01:20.523
Pastor joseph prince with today's program.
00:01:20.590 --> 00:01:22.559
>> joseph prince: jesus said,
00:01:22.625 --> 00:01:23.293
>> joseph prince: jesus said, "the thief," who is the devil,
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:25.528
"the thief," who is the devil, "comes to steal, to kill, and to
00:01:25.595 --> 00:01:29.532
"comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy, but i am come that you
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:32.302
Destroy, but i am come that you might have life, and have it
00:01:32.368 --> 00:01:35.004
More abundantly," amen.
00:01:35.071 --> 00:01:37.574
More abundantly," amen. so who is the one
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:38.408
So who is the one that's stealing from us?
00:01:38.474 --> 00:01:40.276
That's stealing from us? that is killing
00:01:40.343 --> 00:01:41.311
That is killing and that's destroying?
00:01:41.377 --> 00:01:42.745
And that's destroying? the bible says it's the devil.
00:01:42.812 --> 00:01:44.547
The bible says it's the devil. the thief comes to steal, kill,
00:01:44.614 --> 00:01:47.450
The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy, and today, we're
00:01:47.517 --> 00:01:48.985
And destroy, and today, we're going to see his primary way
00:01:49.052 --> 00:01:50.286
Going to see his primary way of--his modus operandi, to see
00:01:50.353 --> 00:01:52.956
Of--his modus operandi, to see how he operates against you,
00:01:53.022 --> 00:01:56.059
How he operates against you, but we need to understand how
00:01:56.125 --> 00:01:57.694
But we need to understand how the devil works because we will
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.597
The devil works because we will be aware of those areas and then
00:02:00.663 --> 00:02:02.498
Be aware of those areas and then we know how to avoid it.
00:02:02.565 --> 00:02:04.033
We know how to avoid it. the bible says we are not
00:02:04.100 --> 00:02:05.001
The bible says we are not ignorant of his devices.
00:02:05.068 --> 00:02:07.136
Ignorant of his devices. whatever the bible tells us
00:02:07.203 --> 00:02:08.638
Whatever the bible tells us not to be ignorant of,
00:02:08.705 --> 00:02:10.139
Not to be ignorant of, we are not to be ignorant of.
00:02:10.206 --> 00:02:12.041
We are not to be ignorant of. like he writes, "be not ignorant
00:02:12.108 --> 00:02:13.776
Like he writes, "be not ignorant of spiritual gifts."
00:02:13.843 --> 00:02:15.378
Of spiritual gifts." so we should not be ignorant
00:02:15.445 --> 00:02:16.279
So we should not be ignorant of the gifts of the holy spirit.
00:02:16.346 --> 00:02:18.715
Of the gifts of the holy spirit. so we should not be ignorant
00:02:18.781 --> 00:02:19.983
So we should not be ignorant of satan and his devices,
00:02:20.049 --> 00:02:21.851
Of satan and his devices, but there's a question.
00:02:21.918 --> 00:02:22.852
But there's a question. if he's a accuser, right, what's
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:24.621
If he's a accuser, right, what's the big deal about accusation?
00:02:24.687 --> 00:02:26.055
The big deal about accusation? like, if he comes to accuse you,
00:02:26.122 --> 00:02:27.590
Like, if he comes to accuse you, he comes to accuse you,
00:02:27.657 --> 00:02:28.891
He comes to accuse you, i always think of it that way.
00:02:28.958 --> 00:02:30.727
I always think of it that way. when someone is accused, what i
00:02:30.793 --> 00:02:32.095
When someone is accused, what i can see is that they feel bad.
00:02:32.161 --> 00:02:33.730
Can see is that they feel bad. his number one weapon is
00:02:33.796 --> 00:02:34.797
His number one weapon is accusation.
00:02:34.864 --> 00:02:35.832
Accusation. he is called accuser.
00:02:35.898 --> 00:02:38.201
He is called accuser. do you think that accusation is
00:02:38.268 --> 00:02:40.169
Do you think that accusation is just to make you feel bad?
00:02:40.236 --> 00:02:45.808
Just to make you feel bad? is there something about
00:02:45.875 --> 00:02:46.676
Is there something about accusation that we don't know?
00:02:46.743 --> 00:02:49.012
Accusation that we don't know? could it be that on the heels
00:02:49.078 --> 00:02:51.147
Could it be that on the heels of accusation, there is
00:02:51.214 --> 00:02:53.182
Of accusation, there is a punishment attached to it?
00:02:53.249 --> 00:02:54.884
A punishment attached to it? not from god, but there is
00:02:54.951 --> 00:02:59.756
Not from god, but there is a sentence.
00:02:59.822 --> 00:03:00.423
A sentence. in other words, when you--
00:03:00.490 --> 00:03:01.524
In other words, when you-- what are you saying
00:03:01.591 --> 00:03:02.725
What are you saying when you are accused,
00:03:02.792 --> 00:03:03.860
When you are accused, when you are accused and you
00:03:03.926 --> 00:03:04.894
When you are accused and you feel guilty?
00:03:04.961 --> 00:03:06.362
Feel guilty? and don't forget,
00:03:06.429 --> 00:03:07.096
And don't forget, the devil is not stupid,
00:03:07.163 --> 00:03:08.031
The devil is not stupid, you know.
00:03:08.097 --> 00:03:08.531
You know. he doesn't always come and tell
00:03:08.598 --> 00:03:09.565
He doesn't always come and tell lies about you.
00:03:09.632 --> 00:03:12.402
Lies about you. in his accusation, a master
00:03:12.468 --> 00:03:15.338
In his accusation, a master deceiver will put a lot of truth
00:03:15.405 --> 00:03:17.540
Deceiver will put a lot of truth and some lie, okay?
00:03:17.607 --> 00:03:20.543
And some lie, okay? so many of the things he accuses
00:03:20.610 --> 00:03:21.844
So many of the things he accuses us of are things that we
00:03:21.911 --> 00:03:23.079
Us of are things that we have done wrong.
00:03:23.146 --> 00:03:25.448
Have done wrong. things that we
00:03:25.515 --> 00:03:25.948
Things that we have not done right.
00:03:26.015 --> 00:03:27.483
Have not done right. so he's not stupid.
00:03:27.550 --> 00:03:28.351
So he's not stupid. he knows that you can see
00:03:28.418 --> 00:03:31.054
He knows that you can see through a clear lie, but when he
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:34.390
Through a clear lie, but when he comes to you and he accuse you,
00:03:34.457 --> 00:03:36.059
Comes to you and he accuse you, and you become--you receive it,
00:03:36.125 --> 00:03:38.594
And you become--you receive it, albeit unconscious even.
00:03:38.661 --> 00:03:40.430
Albeit unconscious even. if you receive it and you feel
00:03:40.496 --> 00:03:41.631
If you receive it and you feel guilty, how do i know you
00:03:41.698 --> 00:03:42.765
Guilty, how do i know you accept it?
00:03:42.832 --> 00:03:43.466
Accept it? because now you feel guilty,
00:03:43.533 --> 00:03:44.734
Because now you feel guilty, you feel bad.
00:03:44.801 --> 00:03:45.401
You feel bad. not only that, you feel shame,
00:03:45.468 --> 00:03:47.603
Not only that, you feel shame, which a believer should never
00:03:47.670 --> 00:03:48.504
Which a believer should never feel, and then, not only that,
00:03:48.571 --> 00:03:50.807
Feel, and then, not only that, you feel depressed.
00:03:50.873 --> 00:03:53.109
You feel depressed. it might not be to the extent
00:03:53.176 --> 00:03:54.110
It might not be to the extent of chronic depression where you
00:03:54.177 --> 00:03:55.712
Of chronic depression where you need medication, but depression.
00:03:55.778 --> 00:03:57.513
Need medication, but depression. you have dark thoughts.
00:03:57.580 --> 00:03:58.948
You have dark thoughts. you are anxious.
00:03:59.015 --> 00:03:59.682
You are anxious. you are worried.
00:03:59.749 --> 00:04:00.216
You are worried. i don't care how much of grace
00:04:00.283 --> 00:04:01.150
I don't care how much of grace you understand.
00:04:01.217 --> 00:04:01.684
You understand. i don't care how long
00:04:01.751 --> 00:04:02.352
I don't care how long you've been in this church.
00:04:02.418 --> 00:04:03.086
You've been in this church. if you still feel fearful,
00:04:03.152 --> 00:04:06.122
If you still feel fearful, anxious and all that,
00:04:06.189 --> 00:04:07.056
Anxious and all that, to that extent,
00:04:07.123 --> 00:04:07.857
To that extent, and i preach that to myself,
00:04:07.924 --> 00:04:09.058
And i preach that to myself, to that extent, some things have
00:04:09.125 --> 00:04:10.660
To that extent, some things have not dropped from here to here.
00:04:10.727 --> 00:04:13.930
Not dropped from here to here. you need to keep on hearing and
00:04:13.996 --> 00:04:14.931
You need to keep on hearing and hearing and hearing and hearing
00:04:14.997 --> 00:04:16.199
Hearing and hearing and hearing and hearing and hearing
00:04:16.265 --> 00:04:17.467
And hearing and hearing and hearing the word.
00:04:17.533 --> 00:04:20.903
And hearing the word. something about our flesh
00:04:20.970 --> 00:04:21.804
Something about our flesh which is very legalistic.
00:04:21.871 --> 00:04:23.940
Which is very legalistic. ten sermons on grace,
00:04:24.006 --> 00:04:25.475
Ten sermons on grace, the eleventh week, you hear
00:04:25.541 --> 00:04:26.542
The eleventh week, you hear something that's a mixture,
00:04:26.609 --> 00:04:27.377
Something that's a mixture, you can forget all the ten.
00:04:27.443 --> 00:04:29.345
You can forget all the ten. it's the propensity
00:04:29.412 --> 00:04:29.979
It's the propensity of the flesh.
00:04:30.046 --> 00:04:31.447
Of the flesh. we need to keep on hearing,
00:04:31.514 --> 00:04:33.549
We need to keep on hearing, okay?
00:04:33.616 --> 00:04:34.050
Okay? so what is it about accusation
00:04:34.117 --> 00:04:35.985
So what is it about accusation that is so bad?
00:04:36.052 --> 00:04:37.754
That is so bad? it's this, when you receive
00:04:37.820 --> 00:04:39.322
It's this, when you receive accusation, albeit unconscious,
00:04:39.389 --> 00:04:41.991
Accusation, albeit unconscious, you're actually saying, "jesus,
00:04:42.058 --> 00:04:44.460
You're actually saying, "jesus, you didn't do a good job.
00:04:44.527 --> 00:04:47.230
You didn't do a good job. god, you're not satisfied
00:04:47.296 --> 00:04:49.332
God, you're not satisfied with the sacrifice.
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:51.834
With the sacrifice. devil, you are right."
00:04:51.901 --> 00:04:54.737
Devil, you are right." that is what you are saying
00:04:54.804 --> 00:04:56.272
That is what you are saying when you accept the accusation.
00:04:56.339 --> 00:05:00.710
When you accept the accusation. with the accusation comes
00:05:00.777 --> 00:05:01.811
With the accusation comes the sentence.
00:05:01.878 --> 00:05:03.613
The sentence. sickness, disease, aging.
00:05:03.679 --> 00:05:07.450
Sickness, disease, aging. it all comes on the heels
00:05:07.517 --> 00:05:08.484
It all comes on the heels of the accusation.
00:05:08.551 --> 00:05:09.152
Of the accusation. that's why in the hebrew,
00:05:09.218 --> 00:05:13.055
That's why in the hebrew, the word sin, "chattaah,"
00:05:13.122 --> 00:05:14.857
The word sin, "chattaah," and the word sin offering
00:05:14.924 --> 00:05:15.925
And the word sin offering is also "chattaah."
00:05:15.992 --> 00:05:17.026
Is also "chattaah." same word, same spelling,
00:05:17.093 --> 00:05:18.261
Same word, same spelling, same word.
00:05:18.327 --> 00:05:19.028
Same word. you know, you thought that--
00:05:19.095 --> 00:05:20.430
You know, you thought that-- and sometimes the translators,
00:05:20.496 --> 00:05:22.398
And sometimes the translators, in some bibles, they say
00:05:22.465 --> 00:05:23.199
In some bibles, they say this verse is sin offering,
00:05:23.266 --> 00:05:24.500
This verse is sin offering, some say it's sin.
00:05:24.567 --> 00:05:26.502
Some say it's sin. they are not too sure.
00:05:26.569 --> 00:05:27.603
They are not too sure. a sin offering crouches
00:05:27.670 --> 00:05:28.738
A sin offering crouches at the door or is it a sin
00:05:28.805 --> 00:05:30.139
At the door or is it a sin is waiting to spring on him?
00:05:30.206 --> 00:05:31.207
Is waiting to spring on him? so, it, like--scholars
00:05:31.274 --> 00:05:32.608
So, it, like--scholars themselves are not sure because
00:05:32.675 --> 00:05:33.409
Themselves are not sure because the hebrew word for sin and
00:05:33.476 --> 00:05:35.244
The hebrew word for sin and sin offering is the same word.
00:05:35.311 --> 00:05:37.513
Sin offering is the same word. so i asked the lord some time
00:05:37.580 --> 00:05:38.581
So i asked the lord some time back and the lord said to me,
00:05:38.648 --> 00:05:39.849
Back and the lord said to me, "because every time sin
00:05:39.916 --> 00:05:40.616
"because every time sin is involved, inevitably there
00:05:40.683 --> 00:05:43.352
Is involved, inevitably there will be a sin offering."
00:05:43.419 --> 00:05:45.221
Will be a sin offering." whether the sin offering of
00:05:45.288 --> 00:05:47.190
Whether the sin offering of god's provision, which is christ
00:05:47.256 --> 00:05:49.125
God's provision, which is christ who became our sin offering.
00:05:49.192 --> 00:05:50.526
Who became our sin offering. if you see jesus christ
00:05:50.593 --> 00:05:51.694
If you see jesus christ as your sin offering
00:05:51.761 --> 00:05:52.495
As your sin offering when you sin, your conscience
00:05:52.562 --> 00:05:54.697
When you sin, your conscience will go at rest.
00:05:54.764 --> 00:05:56.532
Will go at rest. you will see it's paid for,
00:05:56.599 --> 00:05:58.601
You will see it's paid for, amen.
00:05:58.668 --> 00:05:59.101
Amen. not only that, it has a
00:05:59.168 --> 00:06:00.036
Not only that, it has a sanctifying effect that you will
00:06:00.102 --> 00:06:01.537
Sanctifying effect that you will not continue in that sin, amen.
00:06:01.604 --> 00:06:04.073
Not continue in that sin, amen. it will set you free.
00:06:04.140 --> 00:06:04.907
It will set you free. not only that, it will cause you
00:06:04.974 --> 00:06:05.842
Not only that, it will cause you to love god because you see
00:06:05.908 --> 00:06:06.742
To love god because you see the sin offering, you see
00:06:06.809 --> 00:06:07.944
The sin offering, you see the love of god for you.
00:06:08.010 --> 00:06:09.879
The love of god for you. you see the provision of god,
00:06:09.946 --> 00:06:10.913
You see the provision of god, but if you don't relate it
00:06:10.980 --> 00:06:12.215
But if you don't relate it to the cross when you sin,
00:06:12.281 --> 00:06:13.749
To the cross when you sin, you will pay a sin offering.
00:06:13.816 --> 00:06:14.984
You will pay a sin offering. somebody has to pay.
00:06:15.051 --> 00:06:16.819
Somebody has to pay. something has to give.
00:06:16.886 --> 00:06:19.522
Something has to give. whenever you sin,
00:06:19.589 --> 00:06:20.623
Whenever you sin, there is something.
00:06:20.690 --> 00:06:21.224
There is something. god made you a--you know,
00:06:21.290 --> 00:06:24.093
God made you a--you know, you're a person, spirit, soul,
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:25.895
You're a person, spirit, soul, and body.
00:06:25.962 --> 00:06:27.296
And body. when man partook of the tree of
00:06:27.363 --> 00:06:29.532
When man partook of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, it's
00:06:29.599 --> 00:06:31.601
Knowledge of good and evil, it's conscience that he got, and that
00:06:31.667 --> 00:06:33.603
Conscience that he got, and that conscience, the bible says,
00:06:33.669 --> 00:06:34.604
Conscience, the bible says, is like the ten commandments.
00:06:34.670 --> 00:06:35.571
Is like the ten commandments. it tells you that you deserve
00:06:35.638 --> 00:06:37.106
It tells you that you deserve now to be destroyed.
00:06:37.173 --> 00:06:40.910
Now to be destroyed. you deserve to have the
00:06:40.977 --> 00:06:42.512
You deserve to have the bad things in life, all right.
00:06:42.578 --> 00:06:44.013
Bad things in life, all right. the bad breaks and all that.
00:06:44.080 --> 00:06:45.114
The bad breaks and all that. you deserve to be sick.
00:06:45.181 --> 00:06:49.118
You deserve to be sick. your child will come down sick,
00:06:49.185 --> 00:06:50.920
Your child will come down sick, and something inside you
00:06:50.987 --> 00:06:51.487
And something inside you will say, "you deserve it."
00:06:51.554 --> 00:06:52.989
Will say, "you deserve it." you know why?
00:06:53.055 --> 00:06:53.556
You know why? people are not at rest.
00:06:53.623 --> 00:06:54.223
People are not at rest. they are not at peace.
00:06:54.290 --> 00:06:55.258
They are not at peace. so i'm going to show you right
00:06:55.324 --> 00:06:56.192
So i'm going to show you right now this verse of scripture.
00:06:56.259 --> 00:06:56.993
Now this verse of scripture. it's got to do with food
00:06:57.059 --> 00:06:59.395
And drinking wine, okay.
00:06:59.462 --> 00:07:01.097
And drinking wine, okay. so in romans 14, verse 21 talks
00:07:01.163 --> 00:07:03.766
So in romans 14, verse 21 talks about, if you drink wine
00:07:03.833 --> 00:07:06.002
About, if you drink wine and your brother doesn't believe
00:07:06.068 --> 00:07:06.802
And your brother doesn't believe in drinking wine, please
00:07:06.869 --> 00:07:07.970
In drinking wine, please don't drink wine in his presence
00:07:08.037 --> 00:07:10.506
Don't drink wine in his presence because you will stumble him.
00:07:10.573 --> 00:07:13.209
Because you will stumble him. all right, if your brother
00:07:13.276 --> 00:07:13.943
All right, if your brother doesn't believe in eating meat,
00:07:14.010 --> 00:07:16.145
Doesn't believe in eating meat, don't eat meat in his presence.
00:07:16.212 --> 00:07:18.447
Don't eat meat in his presence. don't do that,
00:07:18.514 --> 00:07:19.048
Don't do that, you will stumble him.
00:07:19.115 --> 00:07:20.983
You will stumble him. okay, love is more important
00:07:21.050 --> 00:07:22.184
Okay, love is more important than your right to eat meat
00:07:22.251 --> 00:07:23.753
Than your right to eat meat or drink wine.
00:07:23.819 --> 00:07:25.588
Or drink wine. are you with me so far?
00:07:25.655 --> 00:07:26.756
Are you with me so far? then it says,
00:07:26.822 --> 00:07:28.291
Then it says, "do you have faith?
00:07:28.357 --> 00:07:29.759
"do you have faith? have it to yourself before god.
00:07:29.825 --> 00:07:31.494
Have it to yourself before god. happy is he who does not condemn
00:07:31.561 --> 00:07:33.362
Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves."
00:07:33.429 --> 00:07:36.065
Himself in what he approves." the whole context here, keep
00:07:36.132 --> 00:07:37.199
The whole context here, keep to the context, we are talking
00:07:37.266 --> 00:07:38.234
To the context, we are talking about food, and yet we can learn
00:07:38.301 --> 00:07:40.536
About food, and yet we can learn something.
00:07:40.603 --> 00:07:41.370
Something. "but he who doubts is condemned
00:07:41.437 --> 00:07:43.873
"but he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not
00:07:43.940 --> 00:07:46.075
If he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever
00:07:46.142 --> 00:07:48.377
Eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin."
00:07:48.444 --> 00:07:52.882
Is not from faith is sin." now, i'll tell you why a lot of
00:07:52.949 --> 00:07:54.050
Now, i'll tell you why a lot of people don't handle this verse.
00:07:54.116 --> 00:07:55.418
People don't handle this verse. you know why?
00:07:55.484 --> 00:07:55.985
You know why? because they can't handle the,
00:07:56.052 --> 00:07:57.053
Because they can't handle the, "he who doubts is condemned."
00:07:57.119 --> 00:07:59.689
"he who doubts is condemned." so those who don't believe in
00:07:59.755 --> 00:08:00.923
So those who don't believe in the grace--the gospel of grace
00:08:00.990 --> 00:08:03.726
And the efficacy
00:08:03.793 --> 00:08:04.560
And the efficacy of the blood of jesus to save us
00:08:04.627 --> 00:08:05.695
Of the blood of jesus to save us forever, they will say,
00:08:05.761 --> 00:08:07.263
Forever, they will say, "condemn is go to hell."
00:08:07.330 --> 00:08:08.598
"condemn is go to hell." you mean go to hell for food?
00:08:08.664 --> 00:08:12.635
You mean go to hell for food? it's an easy answer.
00:08:12.702 --> 00:08:14.804
It's an easy answer. so is this condemnation
00:08:14.870 --> 00:08:15.871
So is this condemnation from god?
00:08:15.938 --> 00:08:17.239
From god? no, it's not!
00:08:17.306 --> 00:08:19.041
No, it's not! let me tell you unequivocally,
00:08:19.108 --> 00:08:21.611
Let me tell you unequivocally, clear, like a clarion call,
00:08:21.677 --> 00:08:24.113
Clear, like a clarion call, this condemnation is there,
00:08:24.180 --> 00:08:26.482
This condemnation is there, but it's not from god!
00:08:26.549 --> 00:08:30.086
But it's not from god! let me prove that
00:08:30.152 --> 00:08:30.720
Let me prove that once and for all.
00:08:30.786 --> 00:08:31.554
Once and for all. same word, this word, condemned,
00:08:31.621 --> 00:08:33.189
Same word, this word, condemned, is the greek word, "katakrino,"
00:08:33.255 --> 00:08:35.591
And this word is used
00:08:35.658 --> 00:08:36.592
And this word is used in romans 8 to say,
00:08:36.659 --> 00:08:38.327
In romans 8 to say, "who is he who condemns?"
00:08:38.394 --> 00:08:40.262
"who is he who condemns?" katakrino, condemned here
00:08:40.329 --> 00:08:41.998
Katakrino, condemned here is katakrino.
00:08:42.064 --> 00:08:42.732
Is katakrino. same word!
00:08:42.798 --> 00:08:43.699
Same word! "it is christ who died,
00:08:43.766 --> 00:08:45.101
"it is christ who died, and furthermore, is also risen,
00:08:45.167 --> 00:08:47.136
And furthermore, is also risen, who is even at the right hand
00:08:47.203 --> 00:08:48.170
Who is even at the right hand of god, who also maketh
00:08:48.237 --> 00:08:49.605
Of god, who also maketh intercession for us."
00:08:49.672 --> 00:08:51.207
Intercession for us." they say that the greek
00:08:51.273 --> 00:08:52.575
They say that the greek structure of this
00:08:52.642 --> 00:08:53.476
Structure of this is actually like this.
00:08:53.542 --> 00:08:54.510
Is actually like this. "who is he who condemns?
00:08:54.577 --> 00:08:56.112
"who is he who condemns? will christ condemn us?
00:08:56.178 --> 00:08:57.113
Will christ condemn us? no, he is the one who died
00:08:57.179 --> 00:08:58.147
No, he is the one who died for us.
00:08:58.214 --> 00:08:58.814
For us. he rose again for us and is
00:08:58.881 --> 00:09:00.316
He rose again for us and is making intercession for us."
00:09:00.383 --> 00:09:05.287
Making intercession for us." so, there's no condemnation
00:09:05.354 --> 00:09:06.555
So, there's no condemnation for the believer.
00:09:06.622 --> 00:09:09.025
For the believer. it's not from god.
00:09:09.091 --> 00:09:10.726
It's not from god. so what is this "katakrino?"
00:09:10.793 --> 00:09:11.961
So what is this "katakrino?" when you--if you--in the bible,
00:09:12.028 --> 00:09:13.496
When you--if you--in the bible, go back to the passage again.
00:09:13.562 --> 00:09:15.097
Go back to the passage again. the bible says, "happy is he
00:09:15.164 --> 00:09:17.033
The bible says, "happy is he who does not condemn himself
00:09:17.099 --> 00:09:18.801
Who does not condemn himself in what he approves.
00:09:18.868 --> 00:09:20.102
In what he approves. but he who doubts is condemned
00:09:20.169 --> 00:09:22.138
But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not
00:09:22.204 --> 00:09:23.906
If he eats, because he does not eat from faith; whatever
00:09:23.973 --> 00:09:26.175
Eat from faith; whatever is not from faith is sin."
00:09:26.242 --> 00:09:28.210
Is not from faith is sin." there must be something.
00:09:28.277 --> 00:09:29.245
There must be something. let's say he doesn't believe
00:09:29.311 --> 00:09:30.012
Let's say he doesn't believe in eating meat, but someone
00:09:30.079 --> 00:09:31.313
In eating meat, but someone persuades him to eat meat.
00:09:31.380 --> 00:09:32.648
Persuades him to eat meat. his conscience bothers him.
00:09:32.715 --> 00:09:34.383
His conscience bothers him. or drinking wine.
00:09:34.450 --> 00:09:35.885
Or drinking wine. okay, someone says,
00:09:35.951 --> 00:09:36.519
Okay, someone says, "it's okay, it's okay, you know,
00:09:36.585 --> 00:09:37.720
"it's okay, it's okay, you know, just drink."
00:09:37.787 --> 00:09:38.320
Just drink." he drinks and it condemns him.
00:09:38.387 --> 00:09:40.623
Is it just that he feels bad?
00:09:40.690 --> 00:09:44.093
Is it just that he feels bad? then the word condemn,
00:09:44.160 --> 00:09:44.860
Then the word condemn, "katakrino," the word "kata" is
00:09:44.927 --> 00:09:46.462
"katakrino," the word "kata" is this, it's an intensified form.
00:09:46.529 --> 00:09:50.132
This, it's an intensified form. it's serious matter.
00:09:50.199 --> 00:09:52.068
It's serious matter. it's not to hell.
00:09:52.134 --> 00:09:53.502
It's not to hell. that means he might come down
00:09:53.569 --> 00:09:55.404
That means he might come down with some depression
00:09:55.471 --> 00:09:56.972
With some depression or disease or whatever
00:09:57.039 --> 00:09:58.240
Or disease or whatever because he's feeling guilty.
00:09:58.307 --> 00:10:00.242
Because he's feeling guilty. he's condemning himself
00:10:00.309 --> 00:10:01.243
He's condemning himself for eating, but we are such
00:10:01.310 --> 00:10:03.212
For eating, but we are such creatures that are so vulnerable
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:05.314
Creatures that are so vulnerable to accusation that even in this
00:10:05.381 --> 00:10:07.083
To accusation that even in this era, the bible says that if you
00:10:07.149 --> 00:10:10.186
Era, the bible says that if you doubt when you eat, you come
00:10:10.252 --> 00:10:13.089
Doubt when you eat, you come under the sentence, "katakrino,"
00:10:13.155 --> 00:10:15.291
Under the sentence, "katakrino," that's outside there already.
00:10:15.357 --> 00:10:16.392
That's outside there already. the same word, "katakrino"
00:10:16.459 --> 00:10:17.827
The same word, "katakrino" is used when god says, "partake
00:10:17.893 --> 00:10:19.562
Is used when god says, "partake of the lord's supper, worthily,"
00:10:19.628 --> 00:10:22.932
Of the lord's supper, worthily," because god doesn't want you
00:10:22.998 --> 00:10:24.033
Because god doesn't want you to be condemned, "katakrino,"
00:10:24.100 --> 00:10:26.035
To be condemned, "katakrino," with the world.
00:10:26.102 --> 00:10:27.103
With the world. so in the context,
00:10:27.169 --> 00:10:28.337
So in the context, the condemnation is that god
00:10:28.404 --> 00:10:29.438
The condemnation is that god doesn't want you to die
00:10:29.505 --> 00:10:30.372
Doesn't want you to die before your time.
00:10:30.439 --> 00:10:31.574
Before your time. god doesn't want you to be sick,
00:10:31.640 --> 00:10:33.676
God doesn't want you to be sick, because this is the "katakrino"
00:10:33.743 --> 00:10:35.177
Because this is the "katakrino" that's outside there
00:10:35.244 --> 00:10:36.212
That's outside there in the world.
00:10:36.278 --> 00:10:36.979
In the world. in the world, it's normal to be
00:10:37.046 --> 00:10:38.748
In the world, it's normal to be sick or to die before your time,
00:10:38.814 --> 00:10:41.083
Sick or to die before your time, but in the context
00:10:41.150 --> 00:10:42.251
But in the context of the lord's supper,
00:10:42.318 --> 00:10:43.319
Of the lord's supper, god has given you a provision
00:10:43.385 --> 00:10:44.887
God has given you a provision where you don't have to be sick,
00:10:44.954 --> 00:10:46.689
Where you don't have to be sick, you can be healed.
00:10:46.756 --> 00:10:48.724
You can be healed. where you don't have to be weak,
00:10:48.791 --> 00:10:49.759
Where you don't have to be weak, you can be strong.
00:10:49.825 --> 00:10:51.060
You can be strong. where you don't have to fall
00:10:51.127 --> 00:10:51.861
Where you don't have to fall asleep before your time,
00:10:51.927 --> 00:10:53.963
Asleep before your time, but you can live long.
00:10:54.029 --> 00:10:55.931
But you can live long. so god doesn't want us, in the
00:10:55.998 --> 00:10:57.800
So god doesn't want us, in the same passage, to be condemned,
00:10:57.867 --> 00:10:59.769
Same passage, to be condemned, "katakrino," with the world.
00:10:59.835 --> 00:11:01.137
"katakrino," with the world. now, is that from god?
00:11:01.203 --> 00:11:02.071
Now, is that from god? no, it came with a sentence.
00:11:02.138 --> 00:11:04.006
No, it came with a sentence. when adam sinned there is
00:11:04.073 --> 00:11:05.474
When adam sinned there is a "katakrino" released in this
00:11:05.541 --> 00:11:06.709
A "katakrino" released in this world, amen, but long before
00:11:06.776 --> 00:11:08.944
World, amen, but long before he can steal, kill, and destroy,
00:11:09.011 --> 00:11:10.312
He can steal, kill, and destroy, because he need to affirm.
00:11:10.379 --> 00:11:11.914
Because he need to affirm. yes, you feel guilty,
00:11:11.981 --> 00:11:13.149
Yes, you feel guilty, you accept it.
00:11:13.215 --> 00:11:13.883
You accept it. in essence, what you're
00:11:13.949 --> 00:11:14.950
In essence, what you're saying--you don't realize,
00:11:15.017 --> 00:11:15.851
Saying--you don't realize, when you accept accusation,
00:11:15.918 --> 00:11:17.186
When you accept accusation, you're saying, "jesus,
00:11:17.253 --> 00:11:18.087
You're saying, "jesus, you didn't do a good job.
00:11:18.154 --> 00:11:19.388
You didn't do a good job. it's not finished.
00:11:19.455 --> 00:11:20.456
It's not finished. god, you didn't--you're not
00:11:20.523 --> 00:11:21.724
God, you didn't--you're not satisfied with what jesus did,
00:11:21.791 --> 00:11:24.426
Satisfied with what jesus did, and devil, you're right."
00:11:24.493 --> 00:11:26.529
And devil, you're right." that's what you're saying.
00:11:26.595 --> 00:11:29.498
That's what you're saying. so what's the defense?
00:11:29.565 --> 00:11:31.100
So what's the defense? the defense is in the gospel.
00:11:31.167 --> 00:11:32.568
The defense is in the gospel. we confess, i am the
00:11:32.635 --> 00:11:34.336
We confess, i am the righteousness of god in christ,
00:11:34.403 --> 00:11:35.938
Righteousness of god in christ, amen!
00:11:36.005 --> 00:11:38.474
Amen! now, someone who hears me
00:11:38.541 --> 00:11:39.909
Now, someone who hears me like this, they say,
00:11:39.975 --> 00:11:40.576
Like this, they say, "oh, pastor prince,
00:11:40.643 --> 00:11:41.143
"oh, pastor prince, you're telling people they
00:11:41.210 --> 00:11:41.744
You're telling people they can just do whatever they want."
00:11:41.811 --> 00:11:43.112
Can just do whatever they want." people are not stupid,
00:11:43.179 --> 00:11:44.146
People are not stupid, they know.
00:11:44.213 --> 00:11:44.647
They know. look at my testimonies that
00:11:44.713 --> 00:11:45.381
Look at my testimonies that i've shared, you know, in all
00:11:45.447 --> 00:11:46.615
I've shared, you know, in all my books and all the testaments
00:11:46.682 --> 00:11:48.250
My books and all the testaments you've heard and all that.
00:11:48.317 --> 00:11:49.251
You've heard and all that. you know, they become holy
00:11:49.318 --> 00:11:50.352
You know, they become holy by accident.
00:11:50.419 --> 00:11:51.720
By accident. when people confess, i am the
00:11:51.787 --> 00:11:52.788
When people confess, i am the righteousness of god in christ,
00:11:52.855 --> 00:11:54.924
Righteousness of god in christ, many a times they don't want to
00:11:54.990 --> 00:11:56.025
Many a times they don't want to sin after that, but the thing is
00:11:56.091 --> 00:11:58.327
Sin after that, but the thing is that the devil is accusing them
00:11:58.394 --> 00:11:59.562
That the devil is accusing them of what they have done wrong or
00:11:59.628 --> 00:12:00.796
Of what they have done wrong or what they have not done right.
00:12:00.863 --> 00:12:02.097
What they have not done right. their position is i am the
00:12:02.164 --> 00:12:03.699
Their position is i am the righteousness of god in christ.
00:12:03.766 --> 00:12:05.634
Righteousness of god in christ. legal term
00:12:05.701 --> 00:12:06.735
Legal term against legal accusation.
00:12:06.802 --> 00:12:08.804
Against legal accusation. you cannot just say,
00:12:08.871 --> 00:12:09.505
You cannot just say, "oh, god loves me, so devil,
00:12:09.572 --> 00:12:10.539
"oh, god loves me, so devil, i don't care what you say.
00:12:10.606 --> 00:12:11.340
I don't care what you say. god loves me."
00:12:11.407 --> 00:12:12.041
God loves me." it's not just that.
00:12:12.107 --> 00:12:13.042
It's not just that. you must answer with a legal
00:12:13.108 --> 00:12:14.643
You must answer with a legal answer, and the legal answer is,
00:12:14.710 --> 00:12:16.245
Answer, and the legal answer is, i am the righteousness of god.
00:12:16.312 --> 00:12:18.280
I am the righteousness of god. righteousness of god is
00:12:18.347 --> 00:12:19.281
Righteousness of god is a judicial term.
00:12:19.348 --> 00:12:22.017
A judicial term. martin luther says it like this,
00:12:22.084 --> 00:12:24.053
Martin luther says it like this, i love it.
00:12:24.119 --> 00:12:24.987
I love it. "jesus, you are my sin.
00:12:25.054 --> 00:12:27.089
"jesus, you are my sin. i am your righteousness."
00:12:27.156 --> 00:12:30.059
Powerful statement.
00:12:30.125 --> 00:12:32.094
Powerful statement. the divine exchange took place
00:12:32.161 --> 00:12:33.429
The divine exchange took place at the cross.
00:12:33.495 --> 00:12:34.663
At the cross. jesus became our sin.
00:12:34.730 --> 00:12:35.698
Jesus became our sin. he took our place.
00:12:35.764 --> 00:12:36.332
He took our place. i become his righteousness.
00:12:36.398 --> 00:12:37.833
I become his righteousness. for me not to take
00:12:37.900 --> 00:12:38.734
For me not to take my righteousness is to say
00:12:38.801 --> 00:12:39.602
My righteousness is to say jesus didn't become my sin.
00:12:39.668 --> 00:12:41.637
It's to negate the work
00:12:41.704 --> 00:12:42.538
It's to negate the work of the cross.
00:12:42.605 --> 00:12:44.006
Of the cross. are you with me so far?
00:12:44.073 --> 00:12:44.874
Are you with me so far? do you understand?
00:12:44.940 --> 00:12:46.508
Do you understand? of all the devices that he
00:12:46.575 --> 00:12:47.409
Of all the devices that he would--long before he can steal
00:12:47.476 --> 00:12:48.210
Would--long before he can steal from you, before he can kill,
00:12:48.277 --> 00:12:50.246
From you, before he can kill, before he can destroy,
00:12:50.312 --> 00:12:51.313
Before he can destroy, he accuses.
00:12:51.380 --> 00:12:53.382
In 1 peter 5,
00:12:53.449 --> 00:12:54.350
In 1 peter 5, let's read 1 peter 5.
00:12:54.416 --> 00:12:55.584
Let's read 1 peter 5. "be sober, be vigilant,
00:12:55.651 --> 00:12:57.519
"be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil
00:12:57.586 --> 00:12:59.655
Because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion,
00:12:59.722 --> 00:13:01.824
Walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour."
00:13:01.891 --> 00:13:05.461
Seeking whom he may devour." and then it says, "resist him
00:13:05.527 --> 00:13:07.329
And then it says, "resist him steadfast in the faith,
00:13:07.396 --> 00:13:08.497
Steadfast in the faith, knowing the same sufferings i
00:13:08.564 --> 00:13:09.698
Knowing the same sufferings i experienced by your brotherhood
00:13:09.765 --> 00:13:10.766
Experienced by your brotherhood in the world."
00:13:10.833 --> 00:13:11.367
In the world." now the word,
00:13:11.433 --> 00:13:12.968
Now the word, "your adversary the devil."
00:13:13.035 --> 00:13:15.604
"your adversary the devil." the word adversary is made up
00:13:15.671 --> 00:13:17.506
The word adversary is made up of the greek word, "antidikos."
00:13:17.573 --> 00:13:21.010
Of the greek word, "antidikos." "anti," you all know
00:13:21.076 --> 00:13:22.244
"anti," you all know "anti," right, means against.
00:13:22.311 --> 00:13:23.946
"anti," right, means against. "dikos" is literally lawsuit.
00:13:24.013 --> 00:13:29.618
"dikos" is literally lawsuit. vine says of "antidikos,"
00:13:29.685 --> 00:13:32.621
Vine says of "antidikos," opponent--an opponent
00:13:32.688 --> 00:13:34.990
Opponent--an opponent in a lawsuit.
00:13:35.057 --> 00:13:37.927
In a lawsuit. so that's the word adversary.
00:13:37.993 --> 00:13:39.128
So that's the word adversary. an opponent in a lawsuit.
00:13:39.194 --> 00:13:41.030
An opponent in a lawsuit. the devil still functions
00:13:41.096 --> 00:13:43.499
In terms of legality.
00:13:43.565 --> 00:13:45.868
In terms of legality. his language in accusing you is
00:13:45.935 --> 00:13:48.070
His language in accusing you is a legal language.
00:13:48.137 --> 00:13:50.105
A legal language. "because you have done this,
00:13:50.172 --> 00:13:52.007
"because you have done this, because you have done that.
00:13:52.074 --> 00:13:54.443
Because you have done that. don't forget what god said
00:13:54.510 --> 00:13:57.346
Don't forget what god said in his word.
00:13:57.413 --> 00:13:58.280
In his word. now, expect the punishment.
00:13:58.347 --> 00:14:00.916
Now, expect the punishment. expect the sentence."
00:14:00.983 --> 00:14:02.618
Expect the sentence." even though those are not
00:14:02.685 --> 00:14:04.119
Even though those are not exactly the words you hear,
00:14:04.186 --> 00:14:05.821
Exactly the words you hear, that is the experience a lot
00:14:05.888 --> 00:14:07.289
That is the experience a lot of people go through,
00:14:07.356 --> 00:14:08.190
Of people go through, and sometimes, unfortunately, it
00:14:08.257 --> 00:14:10.092
And sometimes, unfortunately, it is helped somewhat by the pulpit
00:14:10.159 --> 00:14:12.561
Is helped somewhat by the pulpit in terms of the preaching.
00:14:12.628 --> 00:14:13.996
In terms of the preaching. when the real gospel
00:14:14.063 --> 00:14:15.597
When the real gospel is not fully preached.
00:14:15.664 --> 00:14:21.003
Is not fully preached. let me tell you this.
00:14:21.070 --> 00:14:22.204
Let me tell you this. the devil is a strong exponent
00:14:22.271 --> 00:14:23.706
The devil is a strong exponent of holiness, but not grace,
00:14:23.772 --> 00:14:27.676
Of holiness, but not grace, because he knows he focused
00:14:27.743 --> 00:14:29.411
Because he knows he focused on holiness
00:14:29.478 --> 00:14:30.145
On holiness without the grace of god.
00:14:30.212 --> 00:14:31.880
Without the grace of god. people think holiness is
00:14:31.947 --> 00:14:32.715
People think holiness is a deeper subject than grace.
00:14:32.781 --> 00:14:34.950
A deeper subject than grace. wrong, wrong, wrong.
00:14:35.017 --> 00:14:36.285
Wrong, wrong, wrong. remember what we said?
00:14:36.352 --> 00:14:37.286
Remember what we said? that an unbelieving husband
00:14:37.353 --> 00:14:38.954
That an unbelieving husband can be sanctified by the wife.
00:14:39.021 --> 00:14:41.657
Can be sanctified by the wife. so even a non-christian
00:14:41.724 --> 00:14:42.391
So even a non-christian can be sanctified.
00:14:42.458 --> 00:14:43.792
Can be sanctified. no, the devil has so, you know,
00:14:43.859 --> 00:14:47.629
No, the devil has so, you know, reversed the role of grace that
00:14:47.696 --> 00:14:50.065
Reversed the role of grace that makes you think that anyone talk
00:14:50.132 --> 00:14:51.533
Makes you think that anyone talk about grace, "grace is good.
00:14:51.600 --> 00:14:52.568
About grace, "grace is good. hallelujah, we are saved
00:14:52.634 --> 00:14:53.469
Hallelujah, we are saved by grace.
00:14:53.535 --> 00:14:53.969
By grace. amazing grace, how sweet
00:14:54.036 --> 00:14:55.070
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, but now that we
00:14:55.137 --> 00:14:56.372
The sound, but now that we are saved, we got to be holy."
00:14:56.438 --> 00:14:57.773
Are saved, we got to be holy." let me tell you this.
00:14:57.840 --> 00:14:58.674
Let me tell you this. if you understand grace,
00:14:58.741 --> 00:14:59.575
If you understand grace, you will be holy by accident.
00:14:59.641 --> 00:15:02.878
You will be holy by accident. you cannot be underwater and not
00:15:02.945 --> 00:15:05.147
You cannot be underwater and not be wet anymore than you can be
00:15:05.214 --> 00:15:07.516
Be wet anymore than you can be under grace and not be holy.
00:15:07.583 --> 00:15:09.918
Under grace and not be holy. when you touch water,
00:15:09.985 --> 00:15:10.753
When you touch water, you touch wet.
00:15:10.819 --> 00:15:11.720
You touch wet. you touch grace,
00:15:11.787 --> 00:15:12.588
You touch grace, you touch holiness.
00:15:12.654 --> 00:15:14.923
It's just a power within that
00:15:14.990 --> 00:15:16.725
It's just a power within that you want to do what's right.
00:15:16.792 --> 00:15:18.127
You want to do what's right. so when the devil comes
00:15:18.193 --> 00:15:19.328
So when the devil comes as an accuser--the next question
00:15:19.395 --> 00:15:20.429
As an accuser--the next question i want to ask is this.
00:15:20.496 --> 00:15:21.230
I want to ask is this. he's the adversary.
00:15:21.296 --> 00:15:22.931
He's the adversary. by the way, ha-satan is hebrew.
00:15:22.998 --> 00:15:25.634
By the way, ha-satan is hebrew. the devil is of course
00:15:25.701 --> 00:15:27.069
The devil is of course in english, but the word
00:15:27.136 --> 00:15:28.203
In english, but the word in the greek is--the devil is
00:15:28.270 --> 00:15:30.005
In the greek is--the devil is "diabolos."
00:15:30.072 --> 00:15:31.640
"diabolos." we get the word diabolical,
00:15:31.707 --> 00:15:33.075
We get the word diabolical, "diabolos."
00:15:33.142 --> 00:15:34.176
"diabolos." "diabolos" is actually, listen,
00:15:34.243 --> 00:15:36.445
To charge with the intent--
00:15:36.512 --> 00:15:39.248
To charge with the intent-- to accuse or to charge with
00:15:39.314 --> 00:15:41.250
To accuse or to charge with the intent to hurt or destroy.
00:15:41.316 --> 00:15:45.587
The intent to hurt or destroy. this is very interesting because
00:15:45.654 --> 00:15:47.289
This is very interesting because the word satan is the word
00:15:47.356 --> 00:15:50.259
The word satan is the word accuser in the hebrew.
00:15:50.325 --> 00:15:52.461
Accuser in the hebrew. you ask the hebrew people, they
00:15:52.528 --> 00:15:53.495
You ask the hebrew people, they will tell you it's a legal term.
00:15:53.562 --> 00:15:55.798
Will tell you it's a legal term. a prosecutor at law.
00:15:55.864 --> 00:15:57.599
A prosecutor at law. so the devil is a lawyer.
00:15:57.666 --> 00:15:59.501
So the devil is a lawyer. now, if you're a lawyer,
00:15:59.568 --> 00:16:00.202
Now, if you're a lawyer, don't take offense.
00:16:00.269 --> 00:16:01.837
Don't take offense. the bible says jesus is also
00:16:01.904 --> 00:16:03.338
The bible says jesus is also an advocate.
00:16:03.405 --> 00:16:04.339
An advocate. 1 john 2:2, "we have an advocate
00:16:04.406 --> 00:16:06.608
1 john 2:2, "we have an advocate with the father, jesus christ
00:16:06.675 --> 00:16:07.810
With the father, jesus christ the righteous."
00:16:07.876 --> 00:16:08.343
The righteous." and man, he's a powerful lawyer.
00:16:08.410 --> 00:16:09.978
And man, he's a powerful lawyer. he's a jewish lawyer.
00:16:10.045 --> 00:16:11.580
He's a jewish lawyer. [chuckling]
00:16:11.647 --> 00:16:12.648
[chuckling] okay, so don't--but understand
00:16:12.714 --> 00:16:14.950
This, the devil uses
00:16:15.017 --> 00:16:16.552
This, the devil uses legal terms.
00:16:16.618 --> 00:16:18.320
Legal terms. so when jesus died on the cross
00:16:18.387 --> 00:16:19.655
So when jesus died on the cross and cried, "finished,"
00:16:19.721 --> 00:16:21.090
And cried, "finished," this is what happened.
00:16:21.156 --> 00:16:21.790
This is what happened. revelation 12 took place.
00:16:21.857 --> 00:16:23.525
Revelation 12 took place. i believe that.
00:16:23.592 --> 00:16:24.159
I believe that. "then i heard a loud voice
00:16:24.226 --> 00:16:25.294
"then i heard a loud voice saying, in heaven,
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:25.961
Saying, in heaven, 'now salvation and strength,
00:16:26.028 --> 00:16:27.563
'now salvation and strength, and the kingdom of our god,
00:16:27.629 --> 00:16:28.730
And the kingdom of our god, and the power of his christ
00:16:28.797 --> 00:16:29.898
And the power of his christ have come, for the accuser of
00:16:29.965 --> 00:16:31.500
Have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them
00:16:31.567 --> 00:16:32.734
Our brethren, who accused them before our god day and night,
00:16:32.801 --> 00:16:33.869
Before our god day and night, has been cast down.
00:16:33.936 --> 00:16:35.104
Has been cast down. and they overcame him
00:16:35.170 --> 00:16:36.171
And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb.'"
00:16:36.238 --> 00:16:40.109
By the blood of the lamb.'" blood means what?
00:16:40.175 --> 00:16:41.276
Blood means what? there has been a death,
00:16:41.343 --> 00:16:43.178
There has been a death, and this is not ordinary blood.
00:16:43.245 --> 00:16:44.580
And this is not ordinary blood. this is the blood, divine blood
00:16:44.646 --> 00:16:46.615
Flowed in emmanuel's veins.
00:16:46.682 --> 00:16:49.451
Flowed in emmanuel's veins. that blood.
00:16:49.518 --> 00:16:51.019
That blood. when you--when the devil tells
00:16:51.086 --> 00:16:52.287
When you--when the devil tells you, you know, "how dare you ask
00:16:52.354 --> 00:16:54.323
You, you know, "how dare you ask god for this kind of thing?
00:16:54.389 --> 00:16:55.390
God for this kind of thing? how can you expect to have
00:16:55.457 --> 00:16:56.391
How can you expect to have a life more abundant?
00:16:56.458 --> 00:16:57.493
A life more abundant? how can you expect to be healed
00:16:57.559 --> 00:16:58.427
How can you expect to be healed in your body when you have done
00:16:58.494 --> 00:16:59.628
In your body when you have done this, you have done that."
00:16:59.695 --> 00:17:00.295
This, you have done that." just say,
00:17:00.362 --> 00:17:00.796
Just say, "nothing but the blood.
00:17:00.863 --> 00:17:02.831
"nothing but the blood. the blood of jesus."
00:17:02.898 --> 00:17:04.133
The blood of jesus." in other words, the blood
00:17:04.199 --> 00:17:06.034
In other words, the blood gives you the right, amen.
00:17:06.101 --> 00:17:09.138
Gives you the right, amen. the blood means all your sins
00:17:09.204 --> 00:17:10.639
The blood means all your sins that the devil accused you
00:17:10.706 --> 00:17:11.540
That the devil accused you of have been paid.
00:17:11.607 --> 00:17:12.374
Of have been paid. fully paid!
00:17:12.441 --> 00:17:14.476
Fully paid! the blood of jesus has fully met
00:17:14.543 --> 00:17:15.811
The blood of jesus has fully met all the claims
00:17:15.878 --> 00:17:16.612
All the claims of divine justice.
00:17:16.678 --> 00:17:17.880
Of divine justice. more than that,
00:17:17.946 --> 00:17:18.514
More than that, glorified god's throne.
00:17:18.580 --> 00:17:20.883
Glorified god's throne. why did jesus sanctify
00:17:20.949 --> 00:17:22.784
Why did jesus sanctify in heaven, real heaven itself?
00:17:22.851 --> 00:17:24.086
In heaven, real heaven itself? what did he do?
00:17:24.153 --> 00:17:24.720
What did he do? so one day, i asked god
00:17:24.786 --> 00:17:25.988
So one day, i asked god the question, and i remember,
00:17:26.054 --> 00:17:27.489
The question, and i remember, i was just fellowshipping
00:17:27.556 --> 00:17:28.457
I was just fellowshipping with a brother and we're talking
00:17:28.524 --> 00:17:29.591
With a brother and we're talking about life and things like that.
00:17:29.658 --> 00:17:31.226
About life and things like that. i never expected the answer
00:17:31.293 --> 00:17:32.161
I never expected the answer to come there and there.
00:17:32.227 --> 00:17:33.162
To come there and there. all of a sudden, not related
00:17:33.228 --> 00:17:34.062
All of a sudden, not related to what we are talking about,
00:17:34.129 --> 00:17:34.997
To what we are talking about, god just drop it.
00:17:35.063 --> 00:17:35.564
God just drop it. back in the rock auditorium,
00:17:35.631 --> 00:17:37.633
Back in the rock auditorium, i was standing in front
00:17:37.699 --> 00:17:38.834
I was standing in front of your brother, fellowshipping,
00:17:38.901 --> 00:17:40.068
Of your brother, fellowshipping, just catching up with him,
00:17:40.135 --> 00:17:41.103
Just catching up with him, and then god dropped
00:17:41.170 --> 00:17:41.803
And then god dropped the answer straight away.
00:17:41.870 --> 00:17:42.504
The answer straight away. i knew, i saw it straight away.
00:17:42.571 --> 00:17:44.339
I knew, i saw it straight away. remember when satan
00:17:44.406 --> 00:17:45.073
Remember when satan came before god
00:17:45.140 --> 00:17:46.008
Came before god in the book of job, chapter 1,
00:17:46.074 --> 00:17:48.277
In the book of job, chapter 1, and accused job.
00:17:48.343 --> 00:17:50.045
And accused job. i mean, he's pretending to be
00:17:50.112 --> 00:17:51.180
I mean, he's pretending to be jealous of god's righteousness
00:17:51.246 --> 00:17:52.781
Jealous of god's righteousness and he accused job, right?
00:17:52.848 --> 00:17:56.518
And he accused job, right? how come the devil can come to
00:17:56.585 --> 00:17:57.519
How come the devil can come to god before all the angels also?
00:17:57.586 --> 00:18:00.656
God before all the angels also? well, god said to me that that
00:18:00.722 --> 00:18:02.124
Well, god said to me that that position was actually adam's,
00:18:02.191 --> 00:18:05.627
Position was actually adam's, but adam bowed his knee to satan
00:18:05.694 --> 00:18:07.462
But adam bowed his knee to satan and gave him that place.
00:18:07.529 --> 00:18:08.797
And gave him that place. so now satan has the right
00:18:08.864 --> 00:18:09.831
So now satan has the right to come to god, using
00:18:09.898 --> 00:18:12.000
To come to god, using adam's access, to accuse men,
00:18:12.067 --> 00:18:16.305
Adam's access, to accuse men, but then when jesus walked in,
00:18:16.371 --> 00:18:17.573
But then when jesus walked in, hallelujah, hallelujah!
00:18:17.639 --> 00:18:19.341
Hallelujah, hallelujah! when he ascended with the blood,
00:18:19.408 --> 00:18:20.876
When he ascended with the blood, the bible says
00:18:20.943 --> 00:18:21.410
The bible says like the high priest
00:18:21.476 --> 00:18:22.211
Like the high priest of the old testament, amen?
00:18:22.277 --> 00:18:23.912
Of the old testament, amen? he sprinkled the place
00:18:23.979 --> 00:18:25.781
He sprinkled the place where satan stood.
00:18:25.847 --> 00:18:27.816
So that ground
00:18:27.883 --> 00:18:28.383
So that ground is now redeemed ground.
00:18:28.450 --> 00:18:29.751
Is now redeemed ground. satan cannot stand anymore.
00:18:29.818 --> 00:18:31.286
Satan cannot stand anymore. that's why, "the accuser of
00:18:31.353 --> 00:18:32.487
That's why, "the accuser of our brethren, who accused them
00:18:32.554 --> 00:18:33.789
Our brethren, who accused them before our god day and night,
00:18:33.855 --> 00:18:35.157
Before our god day and night, has been cast down.
00:18:35.224 --> 00:18:36.558
Has been cast down. and they overcame him
00:18:36.625 --> 00:18:37.492
And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb."
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:38.393
By the blood of the lamb." can you see that?
00:18:38.460 --> 00:18:39.161
Can you see that? that the devil has
00:18:39.228 --> 00:18:40.295
That the devil has no more access.
00:18:40.362 --> 00:18:42.664
So he has
00:18:42.731 --> 00:18:43.165
So he has no more access to heaven.
00:18:43.232 --> 00:18:43.899
No more access to heaven. don't think of--if any preacher
00:18:43.966 --> 00:18:45.033
Don't think of--if any preacher tells you he goes to heaven
00:18:45.100 --> 00:18:45.968
Tells you he goes to heaven and accuse you and all that,
00:18:46.034 --> 00:18:46.935
And accuse you and all that, it's no more true.
00:18:47.002 --> 00:18:48.604
It's no more true. it was true in the old, but ever
00:18:48.670 --> 00:18:50.105
It was true in the old, but ever since jesus died and rose again
00:18:50.172 --> 00:18:51.473
Since jesus died and rose again and brought the blood in the,
00:18:51.540 --> 00:18:52.441
And brought the blood in the, the devil has no more access.
00:18:52.507 --> 00:18:55.077
The devil has no more access. all right, he's cast down.
00:18:55.143 --> 00:18:56.144
All right, he's cast down. now let me tell you this.
00:18:56.211 --> 00:18:57.279
Now let me tell you this. "they overcame him
00:18:57.346 --> 00:18:57.779
"they overcame him by the blood of the lamb."
00:18:57.846 --> 00:18:58.714
By the blood of the lamb." so we must sing about the blood,
00:18:58.780 --> 00:19:00.115
So we must sing about the blood, talk about the blood,
00:19:00.182 --> 00:19:00.882
Talk about the blood, preach about the blood.
00:19:00.949 --> 00:19:02.050
Preach about the blood. only the blood will defeat
00:19:02.117 --> 00:19:02.951
Only the blood will defeat the enemy.
00:19:03.018 --> 00:19:03.585
The enemy. can i have a good amen?
00:19:03.652 --> 00:19:05.887
Can i have a good amen? cover your family
00:19:05.954 --> 00:19:06.622
Cover your family with the blood of jesus.

With the blood of jesus. the devil understands blood.
00:19:09.658 --> 00:19:11.460
The devil understands blood. blood has a voice.
00:19:11.526 --> 00:19:12.294
Blood has a voice. the bible says the blood
00:19:12.361 --> 00:19:13.161
The bible says the blood of jesus speaks better things
00:19:13.228 --> 00:19:14.463
Of jesus speaks better things than the blood of abel.
00:19:14.529 --> 00:19:15.330
Than the blood of abel. blood has a voice.
00:19:15.397 --> 00:19:17.633
Blood has a voice. when you cover your children
00:19:17.699 --> 00:19:18.867
When you cover your children with the blood of jesus,
00:19:18.934 --> 00:19:19.568
With the blood of jesus, you mean--blood of jesus, you
00:19:19.635 --> 00:19:21.503
You mean--blood of jesus, you are actually sending a message
00:19:21.570 --> 00:19:22.437
Are actually sending a message to the devil, hands off.
00:19:22.504 --> 00:19:24.039
To the devil, hands off. he has no title,
00:19:24.106 --> 00:19:25.340
He has no title, no right to touch that child.
00:19:25.407 --> 00:19:28.844
No right to touch that child. cover yourself
00:19:28.910 --> 00:19:29.344
Cover yourself with the blood of jesus.
00:19:29.411 --> 00:19:30.212
With the blood of jesus. before you sleep at night,
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:31.079
Before you sleep at night, cover yourself
00:19:31.146 --> 00:19:31.613
Cover yourself with the blood of jesus.
00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:33.982
With the blood of jesus. cover your dreams
00:19:34.049 --> 00:19:34.583
Cover your dreams with the blood of jesus.
00:19:34.650 --> 00:19:36.752
With the blood of jesus. the devil knows, okay?
00:19:36.818 --> 00:19:38.086
The devil knows, okay? you cannot touch anything
00:19:38.153 --> 00:19:39.187
You cannot touch anything with the blood, hallelujah.
00:19:39.254 --> 00:19:42.090
Go back to 1 peter 5.
00:19:42.157 --> 00:19:43.725
Go back to 1 peter 5. we are bringing this to a close.
00:19:43.792 --> 00:19:44.860
We are bringing this to a close. all right, so, "resist the
00:19:44.926 --> 00:19:46.361
All right, so, "resist the devil, steadfast in the faith."
00:19:46.428 --> 00:19:48.196
Devil, steadfast in the faith." the word resist in the greek
00:19:48.263 --> 00:19:49.698
The word resist in the greek is the word "anthistemi."
00:19:49.765 --> 00:19:52.034
Is the word "anthistemi." is that interesting?
00:19:52.100 --> 00:19:53.335
Is that interesting? "anthistemi," resist is where
00:19:53.402 --> 00:19:55.404
"anthistemi," resist is where you get the word antihistamine?
00:19:55.470 --> 00:19:56.738
You get the word antihistamine? the doctors give you
00:19:56.805 --> 00:19:57.439
The doctors give you antihistamine for your flu
00:19:57.506 --> 00:20:00.509
Antihistamine for your flu or your allergies, right?
00:20:00.575 --> 00:20:02.744
Or your allergies, right? "anthistemi" means withstand.
00:20:02.811 --> 00:20:04.346
"anthistemi" means withstand. how do you withstand the enemy?
00:20:04.413 --> 00:20:05.580
How do you withstand the enemy? "steadfast in the faith,
00:20:05.647 --> 00:20:07.849
"steadfast in the faith, knowing the same sufferings are
00:20:07.916 --> 00:20:09.351
Knowing the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood
00:20:09.418 --> 00:20:10.619
Experienced by your brotherhood in the world."
00:20:10.686 --> 00:20:11.253
In the world." the devil wants you isolated.
00:20:11.320 --> 00:20:13.088
The devil wants you isolated. he wants you to think
00:20:13.155 --> 00:20:13.989
He wants you to think that your problem is uniquely
00:20:14.056 --> 00:20:15.324
That your problem is uniquely your own because you are
00:20:15.390 --> 00:20:16.591
Your own because you are a strange person.
00:20:16.658 --> 00:20:17.693
A strange person. you look at your friend,
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:18.360
You look at your friend, they're all happy and all that.
00:20:18.427 --> 00:20:19.227
They're all happy and all that. you are strange.
00:20:19.294 --> 00:20:19.928
You are strange. you see the thoughts that go
00:20:19.995 --> 00:20:20.729
You see the thoughts that go through your mind?
00:20:20.796 --> 00:20:21.263
Through your mind? only you have
00:20:21.330 --> 00:20:21.997
Only you have this kind of thoughts.
00:20:22.064 --> 00:20:22.831
This kind of thoughts. only you wake up
00:20:22.898 --> 00:20:23.532
Only you wake up in the middle of the night.
00:20:23.598 --> 00:20:24.333
In the middle of the night. only you have this depression,
00:20:24.399 --> 00:20:25.267
Only you have this depression, only you!
00:20:25.334 --> 00:20:26.435
Only you! it's the work of the enemy
00:20:26.501 --> 00:20:27.769
It's the work of the enemy to cause antisocial behavior and
00:20:27.836 --> 00:20:30.572
To cause antisocial behavior and also to isolate you from people.
00:20:30.639 --> 00:20:33.041
Also to isolate you from people. now go to steadfast.
00:20:33.108 --> 00:20:34.209
Now go to steadfast. "resist him, steadfast
00:20:34.276 --> 00:20:35.477
"resist him, steadfast in the faith."
00:20:35.544 --> 00:20:36.311
In the faith." now, what is steadfast
00:20:36.378 --> 00:20:37.279
Now, what is steadfast in the faith?
00:20:37.346 --> 00:20:38.246
In the faith? steadfast in the faith
00:20:38.313 --> 00:20:39.114
Steadfast in the faith means--and i'll bring this
00:20:39.181 --> 00:20:40.482
Means--and i'll bring this to a close.
00:20:40.549 --> 00:20:40.982
To a close. steadfast in the faith means
00:20:41.049 --> 00:20:42.784
Steadfast in the faith means stand tall and say, "i am the
00:20:42.851 --> 00:20:44.152
Stand tall and say, "i am the righteousness of god in christ."
00:20:44.219 --> 00:20:46.722
So you know what you're saying
00:20:46.788 --> 00:20:47.522
So you know what you're saying when the devil comes
00:20:47.589 --> 00:20:48.323
When the devil comes and accuses you?
00:20:48.390 --> 00:20:49.091
And accuses you? even when you're sleeping
00:20:49.157 --> 00:20:49.791
Even when you're sleeping at night, the devil puts
00:20:49.858 --> 00:20:50.959
At night, the devil puts bad thoughts on you
00:20:51.026 --> 00:20:52.361
Bad thoughts on you or bad imaginations.
00:20:52.427 --> 00:20:54.129
Or bad imaginations. say, "i'm the righteousness
00:20:54.196 --> 00:20:55.464
Say, "i'm the righteousness of god in christ."
00:20:55.530 --> 00:20:57.499
Of god in christ." something happens because
00:20:57.566 --> 00:20:59.000
Something happens because just that when you say, "yes,
00:20:59.067 --> 00:21:00.936
Just that when you say, "yes, i'm guilty" or you accept it,
00:21:01.002 --> 00:21:03.004
I'm guilty" or you accept it, you come under that, saying god
00:21:03.071 --> 00:21:05.307
You come under that, saying god is a liar or that the devil is
00:21:05.374 --> 00:21:06.975
Is a liar or that the devil is true--right, and god is not
00:21:07.042 --> 00:21:09.511
True--right, and god is not satisfied with what jesus did.
00:21:09.578 --> 00:21:11.146
Satisfied with what jesus did. likewise, when you say, "i'm the
00:21:11.213 --> 00:21:12.781
Likewise, when you say, "i'm the righteousness of god in christ,"
00:21:12.848 --> 00:21:14.716
Righteousness of god in christ," you're saying a mouthful.
00:21:14.783 --> 00:21:15.584
You're saying a mouthful. you're saying god is satisfied
00:21:15.650 --> 00:21:17.719
You're saying god is satisfied with what jesus did.
00:21:17.786 --> 00:21:19.287
With what jesus did. jesus offered a perfect offering
00:21:19.354 --> 00:21:20.722
Jesus offered a perfect offering on my behalf.
00:21:20.789 --> 00:21:21.723
On my behalf. his blood has fully met
00:21:21.790 --> 00:21:23.125
His blood has fully met all the claims of justice, amen,
00:21:23.191 --> 00:21:25.894
All the claims of justice, amen, and i am righteous because
00:21:25.961 --> 00:21:28.597
And i am righteous because jesus did a perfect work.
00:21:28.663 --> 00:21:30.832
Jesus did a perfect work. he became my sin.
00:21:30.899 --> 00:21:31.900
He became my sin. now i take my place
00:21:31.967 --> 00:21:33.268
Now i take my place as righteous.
00:21:33.335 --> 00:21:34.269
As righteous. the moment the devil knows that,
00:21:34.336 --> 00:21:35.771
The moment the devil knows that, he flees from you,
00:21:35.837 --> 00:21:37.372
He flees from you, because listen carefully.
00:21:37.439 --> 00:21:39.107
Because listen carefully. if the devil slandered
00:21:39.174 --> 00:21:40.308
If the devil slandered the righteousness that took full
00:21:40.375 --> 00:21:43.011
The righteousness that took full note of all your sins, not one
00:21:43.078 --> 00:21:44.713
Note of all your sins, not one of them escaped, and exacted a
00:21:44.780 --> 00:21:46.681
Of them escaped, and exacted a full penalty for all your sins.
00:21:46.748 --> 00:21:48.283
Full penalty for all your sins. now, righteousness is
00:21:48.350 --> 00:21:49.818
Now, righteousness is to declare you justified.
00:21:49.885 --> 00:21:53.555
To declare you justified. it is unrighteousness to declare
00:21:53.622 --> 00:21:54.856
It is unrighteousness to declare yourself not justified
00:21:54.923 --> 00:21:57.559
Yourself not justified because of what jesus did.
00:21:57.626 --> 00:21:58.860
Because of what jesus did. so if you take sides with what
00:21:58.927 --> 00:22:00.395
So if you take sides with what god has said, amen, about you,
00:22:00.462 --> 00:22:02.330
God has said, amen, about you, you are justified, and the devil
00:22:02.397 --> 00:22:04.499
You are justified, and the devil comes to attack you with
00:22:04.566 --> 00:22:05.600
Comes to attack you with an accusation, you say, "i'm
00:22:05.667 --> 00:22:06.501
An accusation, you say, "i'm the righteous of god in christ."
00:22:06.568 --> 00:22:07.502
The righteous of god in christ." whether verbally or inwardly,
00:22:07.569 --> 00:22:09.171
Whether verbally or inwardly, all right, you know that,
00:22:09.237 --> 00:22:10.772
All right, you know that, something happens to the devil.
00:22:10.839 --> 00:22:11.973
Something happens to the devil. now he becomes guilty.
00:22:12.040 --> 00:22:13.208
Now he becomes guilty. listen, in the course of
00:22:13.275 --> 00:22:14.376
Listen, in the course of justice, if an accuser accuses
00:22:14.443 --> 00:22:16.411
Someone falsely, the accuser
00:22:16.478 --> 00:22:19.815
Someone falsely, the accuser becomes as guilty as the person
00:22:19.881 --> 00:22:22.083
Becomes as guilty as the person he's accusing had the accusation
00:22:22.150 --> 00:22:23.785
He's accusing had the accusation been justified.
00:22:23.852 --> 00:22:25.854
Been justified. let me explain.
00:22:25.921 --> 00:22:26.421
Let me explain. if the accuser is aiming
00:22:26.488 --> 00:22:29.257
If the accuser is aiming to say someone--he's like,
00:22:29.324 --> 00:22:31.960
Accusing someone of murder.
00:22:32.027 --> 00:22:34.596
Accusing someone of murder. you think it's just murder?
00:22:34.663 --> 00:22:35.597
You think it's just murder? no, he's saying he
00:22:35.664 --> 00:22:36.398
No, he's saying he deserves death.
00:22:36.465 --> 00:22:37.165
Deserves death. he's aiming for his death.
00:22:37.232 --> 00:22:38.934
He's aiming for his death. the accuser is aiming
00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:39.734
The accuser is aiming for his death because murder
00:22:39.801 --> 00:22:41.002
For his death because murder carries the death penalty.
00:22:41.069 --> 00:22:43.171
Carries the death penalty. now, if the whole church is
00:22:43.238 --> 00:22:46.041
Now, if the whole church is false, now the accuser becomes
00:22:46.107 --> 00:22:49.978
False, now the accuser becomes guilty of the same crime because
00:22:50.045 --> 00:22:52.380
Guilty of the same crime because he's aiming for his death.
00:22:52.447 --> 00:22:53.315
He's aiming for his death. now he's a murderer.
00:22:53.381 --> 00:22:55.851
Now he's a murderer. so the moment you take
00:22:55.917 --> 00:22:56.718
So the moment you take your position saying, "i'm the
00:22:56.785 --> 00:22:58.053
Your position saying, "i'm the righteousness of god in christ,"
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:00.088
Righteousness of god in christ," the whole thing falls back
00:23:00.155 --> 00:23:00.989
The whole thing falls back on the devil.
00:23:01.056 --> 00:23:02.324
On the devil. he dare not handle a christian
00:23:02.390 --> 00:23:03.592
He dare not handle a christian like that, you understand?
00:23:03.658 --> 00:23:04.493
Like that, you understand? because he will have to bear
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:05.527
Because he will have to bear the penalty.
00:23:05.594 --> 00:23:08.630
Follow what i'm saying?
00:23:08.697 --> 00:23:09.731
Follow what i'm saying? and that's why we close with,
00:23:09.798 --> 00:23:10.699
And that's why we close with, "no weapon formed against you
00:23:10.765 --> 00:23:12.434
"no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue
00:23:12.501 --> 00:23:14.269
Shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you
00:23:14.336 --> 00:23:15.570
Which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn."
00:23:15.637 --> 00:23:17.572
In judgment you shall condemn." so there's something about this
00:23:17.639 --> 00:23:19.808
So there's something about this whole scenario about accepting
00:23:19.875 --> 00:23:22.244
Whole scenario about accepting guilt and falling sick,
00:23:22.310 --> 00:23:24.579
Guilt and falling sick, or mentally depressed and having
00:23:24.646 --> 00:23:26.548
Or mentally depressed and having psychological problems,
00:23:26.615 --> 00:23:27.549
Psychological problems, and declaring you're the
00:23:27.616 --> 00:23:28.750
And declaring you're the righteousness of god in christ.
00:23:28.817 --> 00:23:30.018
Righteousness of god in christ. by the same token, what comes
00:23:30.085 --> 00:23:31.219
By the same token, what comes on the heels of righteousness?
00:23:31.286 --> 00:23:32.654
On the heels of righteousness? health, wholeness, peace,
00:23:32.721 --> 00:23:36.024
Health, wholeness, peace, stability, poise, power,
00:23:36.091 --> 00:23:41.196
Stability, poise, power, peace of mind.
00:23:41.263 --> 00:23:45.567
Peace of mind. it's powerful.
00:23:45.634 --> 00:23:47.869
It's powerful. every tongue that rises against
00:23:47.936 --> 00:23:48.803
Every tongue that rises against you, whether you read about it,
00:23:48.870 --> 00:23:51.172
You, whether you read about it, you hear the devil tells you
00:23:51.239 --> 00:23:53.508
Something accusatory,
00:23:53.575 --> 00:23:55.043
Something accusatory, or someone--the devil uses
00:23:55.110 --> 00:23:56.111
Or someone--the devil uses people a lot.
00:23:56.177 --> 00:23:57.679
People a lot. when you see all those words
00:23:57.746 --> 00:23:58.480
When you see all those words coming against you, just say,
00:23:58.547 --> 00:23:59.848
Coming against you, just say, "i condemn all those words."
00:23:59.915 --> 00:24:01.082
"i condemn all those words." don't condemn the people.
00:24:01.149 --> 00:24:02.317
Don't condemn the people. "i condemn all those words.
00:24:02.384 --> 00:24:04.252
"i condemn all those words. i reject them because i'm the
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:05.287
I reject them because i'm the righteousness of god in christ,"
00:24:05.353 --> 00:24:07.422
And start to prosper because
00:24:07.489 --> 00:24:08.990
And start to prosper because the thief will have to stop
00:24:09.057 --> 00:24:10.392
The thief will have to stop stealing, killing, and destroy
00:24:10.458 --> 00:24:13.862
Stealing, killing, and destroy as far as you are concerned
00:24:13.929 --> 00:24:15.430
As far as you are concerned because you are the
00:24:15.497 --> 00:24:15.997
Because you are the righteousness of god in christ,
00:24:16.064 --> 00:24:17.799
Righteousness of god in christ, amen.
00:24:17.866 --> 00:24:18.300
Amen. praise the lord.
