Joseph Prince | Joseph Prince - What Religion Gets Wrong About God's Love | November 4, 2025
- ...
- 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:01.153
- Joseph prince: god wants us humble, yes.
- 00:00:12.097 --> 00:00:13.398
- Humble means we realize that everything that we have,
- 00:00:13.532 --> 00:00:15.767
- We owe it to god.
- 00:00:15.901 --> 00:00:17.603
- So we are grateful and thankful for it.
- 00:00:17.736 --> 00:00:18.437
- That's how the lord loves you.
- 00:00:19.571 --> 00:00:21.039
- With all the power he has, he uses it to serve you.
- 00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:25.244

- And unveils a god who didn't come to just fix
- 00:00:32.518 --> 00:00:34.453
- Your past mistakes.
- 00:00:34.453 --> 00:00:35.854
- He came to set you free from every mistake--
- 00:00:35.854 --> 00:00:38.490

- Announcer: and now here's pastor joseph prince
- 00:01:03.882 --> 00:01:06.185
- With today's program.
- 00:01:06.185 --> 00:01:07.619
- Joseph prince: the whole reason that jesus came and died for us
- 00:01:07.686 --> 00:01:10.055
- On the cross, for our sins-- all right?--
- 00:01:10.055 --> 00:01:13.725
- So that sin is no more the subject between you and god.
- 00:01:13.725 --> 00:01:19.097
- It's a closed issue.
- 00:01:19.097 --> 00:01:21.033
- So when god deals with you, he wants you to know
- 00:01:21.033 --> 00:01:23.101
- He's not looking at you with all your faults.
- 00:01:23.101 --> 00:01:25.771
- Whenever--you know, you say,
- 00:01:25.771 --> 00:01:27.105
- "oh no, i just might have quarreled
- 00:01:27.105 --> 00:01:28.440
- With my wife.
- 00:01:28.440 --> 00:01:29.775
- Oh no, i come to god now because i'm desperate
- 00:01:29.775 --> 00:01:31.376
- For his favor.
- 00:01:31.376 --> 00:01:32.711
- My boss just called me and told me
- 00:01:32.711 --> 00:01:34.346
- That the deadline has been brought forward.
- 00:01:34.346 --> 00:01:35.681
- I need his favor, i need his wisdom, i need his help.
- 00:01:35.681 --> 00:01:38.217
- Oh man, but i shouldn't have quarreled my wife now."
- 00:01:38.217 --> 00:01:41.587
- So what are you obsessed with? not with his love.
- 00:01:41.587 --> 00:01:45.023
- You're not occupied with his goodness.
- 00:01:45.023 --> 00:01:47.092
- Not occupied what jesus did at the cross.
- 00:01:47.092 --> 00:01:49.661
- You think about it.
- 00:01:49.661 --> 00:01:51.096
- When jesus in the upper room, he said,
- 00:01:51.096 --> 00:01:52.764
- "god is glorified in him and i in god,"
- 00:01:52.764 --> 00:01:55.667
- You know when jesus said that?
- 00:01:55.667 --> 00:01:57.035
- Right when judas, he gave the sop, the bread,
- 00:01:57.035 --> 00:02:00.439
- He dipped it and gave it to judas.
- 00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:01.773
- That's the greatest act of love.
- 00:02:01.773 --> 00:02:03.442
- In jewish tradition, when you dip your morsel of food
- 00:02:03.442 --> 00:02:07.446
- Into the tray and you give it to your--
- 00:02:07.446 --> 00:02:12.084
- Whoever you give it to,
- 00:02:12.084 --> 00:02:13.418
- That's the one that you love the most.
- 00:02:13.418 --> 00:02:15.387
- That's the one that you are actually honoring
- 00:02:15.387 --> 00:02:18.190
- The most--not honoring but loving the most, okay?
- 00:02:18.190 --> 00:02:24.630
- He can't be honoring the deed of judas.
- 00:02:24.630 --> 00:02:28.100
- Judas was in the process of betraying jesus
- 00:02:28.100 --> 00:02:31.770
- For 30 pieces of silver.
- 00:02:31.770 --> 00:02:33.905
- It has all been prophesied in the bible, even the betrayal,
- 00:02:33.905 --> 00:02:37.409
- Even the 30 pieces of silver, right?
- 00:02:37.409 --> 00:02:40.846
- So jesus gave it to him, and jesus told him,
- 00:02:40.846 --> 00:02:44.316
- "whatever you do, do it quickly."
- 00:02:44.316 --> 00:02:47.853
- And the bible says he went out from the upper room.
- 00:02:47.853 --> 00:02:51.023
- And in so telling, it tells us, and it was night.
- 00:02:51.023 --> 00:02:55.294
- It was night.
- 00:02:55.294 --> 00:02:56.628
- So, spiritually speaking, it was night for judas.
- 00:02:56.628 --> 00:03:00.132
- He stepped into darkness, right?
- 00:03:00.132 --> 00:03:03.902
- And jesus knew where he was going,
- 00:03:03.902 --> 00:03:05.237
- But the apostles all did not, the disciples did not.
- 00:03:05.237 --> 00:03:08.073
- The disciples thought-- the bible says
- 00:03:08.073 --> 00:03:10.008
- Because judas was a treasurer,
- 00:03:10.008 --> 00:03:12.978
- Therefore, he took the money, and when jesus said,
- 00:03:12.978 --> 00:03:16.148
- "do--what you need to do, do it quickly."
- 00:03:16.148 --> 00:03:18.884
- Such cool--jesus is so cool, isn't it?
- 00:03:18.884 --> 00:03:21.553
- He's telling him, "you're gonna betray me?
- 00:03:21.553 --> 00:03:23.121
- Do it fast," amen. he knew.
- 00:03:23.121 --> 00:03:27.693
- I love the way the whole chapter begins.
- 00:03:27.693 --> 00:03:29.294
- It say that "jesus, knowing he came from the father
- 00:03:29.294 --> 00:03:33.398
- And going to the father, laid aside his garments
- 00:03:33.398 --> 00:03:37.035
- And washed the disciples' feet, including judas's feet
- 00:03:37.035 --> 00:03:42.107
- Because judas was still there.
- 00:03:42.107 --> 00:03:44.443
- And do y'all remember when he did that?
- 00:03:44.443 --> 00:03:47.212
- He came to peter, and peter says,
- 00:03:47.212 --> 00:03:53.952
- "lord, you must not wash my feet.
- 00:03:53.952 --> 00:03:58.623
- How can you wash my feet?"
- 00:03:58.623 --> 00:04:00.125
- And the lord said this to him: "if i don't wash your feet,"
- 00:04:00.125 --> 00:04:03.228
- Okay, all this is in the bible.
- 00:04:03.228 --> 00:04:04.830
- You're looking at me like-- i need to show you the bible,
- 00:04:04.830 --> 00:04:07.265
- So at least you have a feeling that it is in the bible, okay?
- 00:04:07.265 --> 00:04:10.469
- So i said just now, "before the feast of passover,
- 00:04:10.469 --> 00:04:14.606
- When jesus knew his hour had come
- 00:04:14.606 --> 00:04:16.208
- That he should depart from this world to the father"--
- 00:04:16.208 --> 00:04:18.810
- I love this--"having loved his own who were in the world,
- 00:04:18.810 --> 00:04:20.979
- He loved them to the end."
- 00:04:20.979 --> 00:04:22.914
- Okay, drop down.
- 00:04:22.914 --> 00:04:24.249
- Now, "and supper being ended, the devil having already put it
- 00:04:24.249 --> 00:04:26.985
- Into the heart of judas iscariot,
- 00:04:26.985 --> 00:04:28.653
- Simon's son betrayed him.
- 00:04:28.653 --> 00:04:30.722
- Jesus, knowing that the father had given all things
- 00:04:30.722 --> 00:04:33.892
- Into his hands, and that he had come from god
- 00:04:33.892 --> 00:04:36.461
- And was going to god,
- 00:04:36.461 --> 00:04:38.330
- Rose from supper and laid aside his garments,
- 00:04:38.330 --> 00:04:40.766
- And took a towel and girded himself."
- 00:04:40.766 --> 00:04:42.401
- So in those days, right, it is like the most menial task
- 00:04:42.401 --> 00:04:48.173
- Of the servant is to wash the visitors' feet.
- 00:04:48.173 --> 00:04:51.810
- So, obviously they had the upper room
- 00:04:51.810 --> 00:04:53.578
- To celebrate the passover in a few days.
- 00:04:53.578 --> 00:04:55.247
- And, in fact, right after this,
- 00:04:55.247 --> 00:04:57.449
- Jesus will be arrested and all that.
- 00:04:57.449 --> 00:04:58.784
- It will be the passover.
- 00:04:58.784 --> 00:05:00.419
- And the bible says just before the feast of passover,
- 00:05:00.419 --> 00:05:02.621
- Right?
- 00:05:02.621 --> 00:05:03.955
- Jesus rose from supper. he girded himself.
- 00:05:03.955 --> 00:05:07.959
- But before that, notice the way it says,
- 00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:09.928
- "he knew the father had given all things into his hands,
- 00:05:09.928 --> 00:05:14.599
- And that he had come from god and was going to god."
- 00:05:14.599 --> 00:05:19.604
- You see that? i love it.
- 00:05:19.604 --> 00:05:22.407
- He rose from supper.
- 00:05:22.407 --> 00:05:23.742
- That means he knows the father-- he's secure in himself.
- 00:05:23.742 --> 00:05:29.848
- The father gave him all things.
- 00:05:29.848 --> 00:05:31.183
- He's the strongest person in that room, in the upper room.
- 00:05:31.183 --> 00:05:34.786
- I love it.
- 00:05:34.786 --> 00:05:36.755
- You know, it takes the strongest to stoop the lowest.
- 00:05:36.755 --> 00:05:42.194
- For us, we say that, you know, "i humble myself."
- 00:05:42.194 --> 00:05:45.130
- Bro, you're already flat on the ground.
- 00:05:45.130 --> 00:05:47.966
- You're already humbled.
- 00:05:47.966 --> 00:05:49.301
- It takes the most high to be able to humble himself
- 00:05:49.301 --> 00:05:53.472
- And make himself low.
- 00:05:53.472 --> 00:05:55.373
- For us, if we know the truth,
- 00:05:55.373 --> 00:05:57.175
- I don't care about our accomplishments
- 00:05:57.175 --> 00:05:58.510
- And all that.
- 00:05:58.510 --> 00:05:59.845
- In the sight of god, all men is flat.
- 00:05:59.845 --> 00:06:03.381
- They don't realize it. when adam sinned, all men fell.
- 00:06:03.381 --> 00:06:06.785
- We cannot go humbler than that. god wants us humble, yes.
- 00:06:06.785 --> 00:06:11.189
- Humble means we realize that everything that we have,
- 00:06:11.189 --> 00:06:13.692
- We owe it to god.
- 00:06:13.692 --> 00:06:15.060
- It comes from him.
- 00:06:15.060 --> 00:06:16.428
- So we are grateful and thankful for it.
- 00:06:16.428 --> 00:06:18.964
- Can i have a good amen, people? so i love it.
- 00:06:18.964 --> 00:06:22.868
- Knowing he had all things from the father,
- 00:06:22.868 --> 00:06:24.903
- Knowing he's the strongest there,
- 00:06:24.903 --> 00:06:28.607
- Knowing he's the richest there,
- 00:06:28.607 --> 00:06:30.308
- Knowing he has received all things from god his father,
- 00:06:30.308 --> 00:06:33.712
- He rose from supper,
- 00:06:33.712 --> 00:06:35.046
- Bowed down and washed the disciples' feet.
- 00:06:35.046 --> 00:06:38.216
- That's how the lord loves you.
- 00:06:38.216 --> 00:06:39.651
- With all the power he has, he uses it to serve you,
- 00:06:39.651 --> 00:06:43.989
- To cleanse you from your defilement and sin.
- 00:06:43.989 --> 00:06:47.259
- He uses his power.
- 00:06:47.259 --> 00:06:48.593
- I love this because--now, you must understand one thing.
- 00:06:48.593 --> 00:06:52.531
- You say that "oh, pastor, he's instituting the physical,
- 00:06:52.531 --> 00:06:56.067
- The ordinance of washing feet."
- 00:06:56.067 --> 00:06:57.969
- Now, i got nothing to say critically about that, okay?
- 00:06:57.969 --> 00:07:01.439
- Please don't read things into my sermon here.
- 00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:04.109
- I'm talking about the spiritual truth
- 00:07:04.109 --> 00:07:05.610
- Of what jesus is doing because i tell you this:
- 00:07:05.610 --> 00:07:08.113
- I don't think jesus was teaching all this
- 00:07:08.113 --> 00:07:10.482
- To institute a physical washing of the disciples' feet.
- 00:07:10.482 --> 00:07:14.219
- I'll tell you why-- in this context.
- 00:07:14.219 --> 00:07:18.023
- Did they practice that in the early church?
- 00:07:18.023 --> 00:07:19.991
- Yes.
- 00:07:19.991 --> 00:07:21.359
- But i think they practiced that knowing it was figurative, okay?
- 00:07:21.359 --> 00:07:26.298
- I'll tell you why it's figurative.
- 00:07:26.298 --> 00:07:28.433
- Do the disciples know when jesus took the basin of water
- 00:07:28.433 --> 00:07:31.102
- And washed their feet?
- 00:07:31.102 --> 00:07:32.437
- If jesus washed your feet, if i wash your feet, can you tell?
- 00:07:32.437 --> 00:07:35.807
- Can you tell i touch your feet? yeah, of course.
- 00:07:35.807 --> 00:07:38.743
- Can you tell i'm washing your feet?
- 00:07:38.743 --> 00:07:40.445
- You can tell, right?
- 00:07:40.445 --> 00:07:41.780
- But what jesus told peter, drop down to where he says,
- 00:07:41.780 --> 00:07:45.317
- "lord, are you washing my feet?"
- 00:07:45.317 --> 00:07:47.552
- What did jesus say?
- 00:07:47.552 --> 00:07:49.120
- Jesus answered peter and said what?
- 00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:50.622
- "what i'm doing, you do not understand now."
- 00:07:50.622 --> 00:07:55.160
- Don't you think he would understand
- 00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:56.494
- That jesus washing his feet?
- 00:07:56.494 --> 00:07:58.363
- So, obviously, it's not referring
- 00:07:58.363 --> 00:07:59.798
- To the physical.
- 00:07:59.798 --> 00:08:01.433
- He's doing something that has a spiritual meaning,
- 00:08:01.433 --> 00:08:07.706
- A powerful, a deep, poignant truth there--
- 00:08:07.706 --> 00:08:13.545
- That he's telling them, "what i'm doing now--"
- 00:08:13.545 --> 00:08:16.982
- And he's doing it physically,
- 00:08:16.982 --> 00:08:18.383
- "but what i'm doing now, you don't know.
- 00:08:18.383 --> 00:08:21.086
- But you will know hereafter."
- 00:08:21.086 --> 00:08:26.124
- So in other words, the whole thing is symbolic.
- 00:08:26.124 --> 00:08:28.093
- The fact that the father gave him all things,
- 00:08:28.093 --> 00:08:30.261
- He rose from supper,
- 00:08:30.261 --> 00:08:31.863
- And supper is a picture of the cross.
- 00:08:31.863 --> 00:08:33.465
- He died on that cross, where the father says
- 00:08:33.465 --> 00:08:36.334
- God is glorified in him and he in god.
- 00:08:36.334 --> 00:08:38.403
- Because the glory of god is shown the fullest where?
- 00:08:38.403 --> 00:08:41.973
- At the cross. why?
- 00:08:41.973 --> 00:08:43.575
- At the cross, everything is manifested
- 00:08:43.575 --> 00:08:46.511
- To the fullest, to the extreme, and to the greatest.
- 00:08:46.511 --> 00:08:51.216
- The sin of man, never was there greater sin
- 00:08:51.216 --> 00:08:55.020
- Than to take perfect goodness who came to earth
- 00:08:55.020 --> 00:08:58.023
- Healing the sick, cleansing the lepers,
- 00:08:58.023 --> 00:09:01.626
- Unstopping deaf ears, opening the eyes of the blind--
- 00:09:01.626 --> 00:09:04.996
- All right?-- and rejecting all the good.
- 00:09:04.996 --> 00:09:07.265
- Not only that, putting him on that shameful death--amen?--
- 00:09:07.265 --> 00:09:11.169
- That cruel death, that torturous death
- 00:09:11.169 --> 00:09:13.371
- On the cross.
- 00:09:13.371 --> 00:09:15.373
- So the sin of man is manifested in its fullness
- 00:09:15.373 --> 00:09:18.576
- Against perfect goodness.
- 00:09:18.576 --> 00:09:21.613
- So jesus washed the disciples' feet
- 00:09:21.613 --> 00:09:24.849
- But he says, "what i'm doing, you do not know now."
- 00:09:24.849 --> 00:09:27.218
- So it's a spiritual washing, isn't it?
- 00:09:27.218 --> 00:09:30.288
- It's a spiritual washing, isn't it?
- 00:09:30.288 --> 00:09:31.623
- Because later on, in the same upper room--
- 00:09:31.623 --> 00:09:34.626
- Right?-- in the same upper room,
- 00:09:34.626 --> 00:09:35.960
- He says, "i am the vine, you are the branches,"
- 00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:37.796
- In john 15, and this is what he said:
- 00:09:37.796 --> 00:09:39.664
- "you are already clean because of the word
- 00:09:39.664 --> 00:09:43.068
- Which i have spoken to you."
- 00:09:43.068 --> 00:09:45.770
- You are not your own. you are bought with a price.
- 00:09:45.770 --> 00:09:49.874
- And what a price.
- 00:09:49.874 --> 00:09:51.710
- It's not the blood of angel gabriel
- 00:09:51.710 --> 00:09:55.046
- Or archangel michael or one of them.
- 00:09:55.046 --> 00:09:58.383
- No, it's the blood of god's own son.
- 00:09:58.383 --> 00:10:02.487
- So we come to this,
- 00:10:02.487 --> 00:10:03.888
- And you see that jesus is washing their feet,
- 00:10:03.888 --> 00:10:05.990
- And it's a spiritual act.
- 00:10:05.990 --> 00:10:07.392
- So what was this act?
- 00:10:07.392 --> 00:10:08.727
- And then he came to peter, and peter says,
- 00:10:08.727 --> 00:10:10.829
- "you must not wash me," right?
- 00:10:10.829 --> 00:10:12.831
- And jesus said, "what i'm doing now, you do not know."
- 00:10:12.831 --> 00:10:14.632
- So, obviously he's not referring to the physical one,
- 00:10:14.632 --> 00:10:15.967
- But spiritual.
- 00:10:15.967 --> 00:10:17.302
- Let's go on.
- 00:10:17.302 --> 00:10:18.636
- "and then peter said to him, 'you shall never wash my feet!'
- 00:10:18.636 --> 00:10:20.638
- 'if i do not wash you, you have no part with me.'"
- 00:10:20.638 --> 00:10:24.509
- Now, some people say, "well, that shows salvation.
- 00:10:24.509 --> 00:10:27.612
- He says, 'you have no part with me.'"
- 00:10:27.612 --> 00:10:28.947
- No, salvation is, he will have said,
- 00:10:28.947 --> 00:10:30.582
- "you have no part in me."
- 00:10:30.582 --> 00:10:32.884
- It is not the greek word, "en," e-n; in.
- 00:10:32.884 --> 00:10:36.154
- "en" is the greek for "in" in english.
- 00:10:36.154 --> 00:10:39.924
- It is the word "meta"-- in greek--for "with me."
- 00:10:39.924 --> 00:10:44.062
- "in other words, you cannot walk with me.
- 00:10:44.062 --> 00:10:45.530
- You're saved. you're born again.
- 00:10:45.530 --> 00:10:46.898
- But you're gonna walk successfully with me,
- 00:10:46.898 --> 00:10:49.400
- Like we are communing together?
- 00:10:49.400 --> 00:10:51.803
- You need the washing of your feet."
- 00:10:51.803 --> 00:10:53.972
- Notice it's not the washing of the blood anymore.
- 00:10:53.972 --> 00:10:56.174
- It's the washing of the feet.
- 00:10:56.174 --> 00:10:57.509
- Because when jesus rose from supper,
- 00:10:57.509 --> 00:10:58.843
- It's a picture of resurrection.
- 00:10:58.843 --> 00:11:00.178
- He is giving us an intimation of what he's doing in heaven
- 00:11:00.178 --> 00:11:06.417
- For us today.
- 00:11:06.417 --> 00:11:08.486
- He's waiting for you to come and place your soiled feet,
- 00:11:08.486 --> 00:11:12.223
- Dirty feet, your dirty walk-- amen?--into his hands.
- 00:11:12.223 --> 00:11:16.761
- And you say, "how can i do that?
- 00:11:16.761 --> 00:11:18.363
- How can the lord of glory take my filthy feet?"
- 00:11:18.363 --> 00:11:22.634
- And that's exactly what he wants to do.
- 00:11:22.634 --> 00:11:24.035
- He wants to love you that way, amen?
- 00:11:24.035 --> 00:11:26.337
- One of the most beautiful laws in the old testament is this--
- 00:11:26.337 --> 00:11:31.042
- That comes right after the ten commandments was given
- 00:11:31.042 --> 00:11:33.478
- In exodus 19 and 20.
- 00:11:33.478 --> 00:11:35.814
- Exodus 20 is when the ten commandments
- 00:11:35.814 --> 00:11:37.582
- Comes in.
- 00:11:37.582 --> 00:11:38.917
- You see ten commandments for the very first time
- 00:11:38.917 --> 00:11:40.652
- On mount sinai, being given to moses,
- 00:11:40.652 --> 00:11:42.187
- To the people,
- 00:11:42.187 --> 00:11:43.521
- And that's when you see the ten commandments
- 00:11:43.521 --> 00:11:45.023
- For the very first time.
- 00:11:45.023 --> 00:11:46.357
- You know what's the next chapter?
- 00:11:46.357 --> 00:11:49.127
- Twenty-one. this one is 20, right?
- 00:11:49.127 --> 00:11:52.330
- The next one is 21, okay? so you know what's in 21?
- 00:11:52.330 --> 00:11:56.534
- Very beautiful law.
- 00:11:56.534 --> 00:11:57.869
- The very first verse says, "now these are the judgments
- 00:11:57.869 --> 00:12:00.939
- You will teach israel."
- 00:12:00.939 --> 00:12:02.273
- When you have a servant, a slave, a servant--all right?--
- 00:12:02.273 --> 00:12:05.643
- That you have purchased.
- 00:12:05.643 --> 00:12:07.412
- In those days, they live in that culture.
- 00:12:07.412 --> 00:12:08.947
- So god is using something that they can learn
- 00:12:08.947 --> 00:12:11.149
- About his love.
- 00:12:11.149 --> 00:12:12.483
- And he says that "and the servant,"
- 00:12:12.483 --> 00:12:14.419
- Okay, "can only serve for seven years,
- 00:12:14.419 --> 00:12:18.423
- And then he is free to go.
- 00:12:18.423 --> 00:12:20.525
- But the servant had been so blessed
- 00:12:20.525 --> 00:12:22.193
- By this master-- he's a good master--
- 00:12:22.193 --> 00:12:23.895
- That the servant does not want to go free.
- 00:12:23.895 --> 00:12:26.397
- And the master has given him his wife, his children,"
- 00:12:26.397 --> 00:12:29.167
- All right?
- 00:12:29.167 --> 00:12:30.501
- The only thing, if he goes free, he has to leave them behind.
- 00:12:30.501 --> 00:12:33.071
- Whatever the master gives, he must leave behind.
- 00:12:33.071 --> 00:12:34.839
- He must start afresh as a free man without all the--
- 00:12:34.839 --> 00:12:37.675
- Any bestowals from the master.
- 00:12:37.675 --> 00:12:39.777
- But he says, "if i love--" then he says, "i love my master.
- 00:12:39.777 --> 00:12:43.615
- I love my wife. i love my children.
- 00:12:43.615 --> 00:12:45.683
- I will not want to go out free."
- 00:12:45.683 --> 00:12:47.552
- The master will take him and nail his ear
- 00:12:47.552 --> 00:12:50.622
- To the doorpost, which means from then on,
- 00:12:50.622 --> 00:12:52.423
- He is going to wear something here in the ear, amen?
- 00:12:52.423 --> 00:12:54.392
- Nothing wrong.
- 00:12:54.392 --> 00:12:55.727
- I mean, you're wearing earring and all that, guys, you know?
- 00:12:55.727 --> 00:12:57.829
- It doesn't mean you're a slave, all right.
- 00:12:57.829 --> 00:12:59.464
- But in those days, from then on, the guy walks around
- 00:12:59.464 --> 00:13:02.767
- And he's wearing something in the ear,
- 00:13:02.767 --> 00:13:04.602
- That means, all right, he's marked.
- 00:13:04.602 --> 00:13:06.771
- This person choose to remain because he said,
- 00:13:06.771 --> 00:13:09.207
- "i love my master.
- 00:13:09.207 --> 00:13:10.541
- I love--" now, is it that god is talking
- 00:13:10.541 --> 00:13:12.577
- About slaves there?
- 00:13:12.577 --> 00:13:13.912
- No.
- 00:13:13.912 --> 00:13:15.246
- Talking about master and slave? no.
- 00:13:15.246 --> 00:13:16.581
- He's talking about his son and him.
- 00:13:16.581 --> 00:13:19.117
- Jesus came down as a man,
- 00:13:19.117 --> 00:13:21.619
- And jesus saw the church that he would die for,
- 00:13:21.619 --> 00:13:25.256
- The ones who would be saved, and you know what jesus said?
- 00:13:25.256 --> 00:13:28.092
- "i love my master, i love you, father, and i love my disciples,
- 00:13:28.092 --> 00:13:32.530
- And i love my people.
- 00:13:32.530 --> 00:13:37.502
- And i will not go out free."
- 00:13:37.502 --> 00:13:39.704
- In other words, in the garden of gethsemane,
- 00:13:39.704 --> 00:13:41.172
- There was a choice made.
- 00:13:41.172 --> 00:13:42.840
- Want to come back?
- 00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:44.542
- "not my will, your will be done," and he remained.
- 00:13:44.542 --> 00:13:48.680
- He knew that a few hours' time, he would be hanging
- 00:13:48.680 --> 00:13:50.148
- On the cross.
- 00:13:50.148 --> 00:13:51.482
- He chose.
- 00:13:51.482 --> 00:13:52.817
- He chose because he chose--
- 00:13:52.817 --> 00:13:54.152
- And that's--hanging on the cross is pierced.
- 00:13:54.152 --> 00:13:55.887
- Same thing, the ear was pierced for the servant.
- 00:13:55.887 --> 00:14:01.459
- And then he says these words in exodus 21:
- 00:14:01.459 --> 00:14:04.929
- "he remains a servant forever," amen?
- 00:14:04.929 --> 00:14:10.368
- In our case, jesus remains a servant forever.
- 00:14:10.368 --> 00:14:15.106
- To serve who? to serve the angels?
- 00:14:15.106 --> 00:14:17.141
- No, to serve--angels don't need that service.
- 00:14:17.141 --> 00:14:21.746
- They are there to serve you.
- 00:14:21.746 --> 00:14:23.081
- Are they not all ministering spirits
- 00:14:23.081 --> 00:14:24.849
- Sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
- 00:14:24.849 --> 00:14:29.620
- So he wants to serve you.
- 00:14:29.620 --> 00:14:31.122
- But every day, you're serving yourself, you're serving people,
- 00:14:31.122 --> 00:14:33.491
- You're serving everything, you're serving your boss,
- 00:14:33.491 --> 00:14:35.293
- You're serving the needs of your company,
- 00:14:35.293 --> 00:14:38.830
- You're serving this thing.
- 00:14:38.830 --> 00:14:40.264
- You're still serving--
- 00:14:40.264 --> 00:14:42.467
- Except to receive the greatest service of all:
- 00:14:42.467 --> 00:14:46.604
- The service of love, the ministry of love--
- 00:14:46.604 --> 00:14:48.673
- To come to the lord and say, "lord, i'm tired, lord,
- 00:14:48.673 --> 00:14:51.109
- But i come before you right now."
- 00:14:51.109 --> 00:14:52.443
- And sometimes you don't even have to open a bible.
- 00:14:52.443 --> 00:14:53.911
- Okay? sometimes.
- 00:14:53.911 --> 00:14:55.246
- Because i know this is the one thing needful.
- 00:14:55.246 --> 00:14:56.581
- Everything i did today is not so needful.
- 00:14:56.581 --> 00:14:59.417
- This is one thing needful.
- 00:14:59.417 --> 00:15:02.687
- "if i do this, lord, i just want to receive your love.
- 00:15:02.687 --> 00:15:04.889
- I want to receive your strength.
- 00:15:04.889 --> 00:15:06.491
- I've been very tired lately, lord.
- 00:15:06.491 --> 00:15:08.259
- I receive your--i need a fresh infusion of your health,
- 00:15:08.259 --> 00:15:11.295
- Your youthfulness, lord, your power, lord,
- 00:15:11.295 --> 00:15:14.999
- Your energy, your divine energy, lord.
- 00:15:14.999 --> 00:15:16.501
- I need a fresh renewal."
- 00:15:16.501 --> 00:15:19.570
- Maybe it leads you to take the bible.
- 00:15:19.570 --> 00:15:21.172
- Many a times it's with the word of god,
- 00:15:21.172 --> 00:15:22.707
- And you say, "lord jesus, my feet are so dirty.
- 00:15:22.707 --> 00:15:24.542
- I feel so defiled.
- 00:15:24.542 --> 00:15:25.877
- I'm hearing conversation that's not good.
- 00:15:25.877 --> 00:15:27.645
- My mind has been focused on very fleshly things.
- 00:15:27.645 --> 00:15:30.281
- I've been--my mind has been dirty, dusty."
- 00:15:30.281 --> 00:15:33.084
- Remember this: man's body was made
- 00:15:33.084 --> 00:15:36.687
- From the dust of the ground.
- 00:15:36.687 --> 00:15:38.022
- His spirit is amazing: from the breath of god.
- 00:15:38.022 --> 00:15:41.592
- But his feet is dirty, right? always.
- 00:15:41.592 --> 00:15:46.130
- Why? it's a symbol of what?
- 00:15:46.130 --> 00:15:48.066
- Your walk on this earth: you're always defiled.
- 00:15:48.066 --> 00:15:51.602
- Which part of you gets the dirtiest?
- 00:15:51.602 --> 00:15:53.838
- Your feet.
- 00:15:53.838 --> 00:15:55.606
- That's where your body comes from--
- 00:15:55.606 --> 00:15:56.941
- The dust of the earth.
- 00:15:56.941 --> 00:15:58.276
- When jesus wiped the feet of the disciples,
- 00:15:58.276 --> 00:16:00.278
- He says, "he poured water into a basin,
- 00:16:00.278 --> 00:16:01.846
- Began to wash the disciples' feet,
- 00:16:01.846 --> 00:16:03.314
- And wipe them with a towel with which he was girded."
- 00:16:03.314 --> 00:16:06.784
- And it's very interesting that the towel that he used
- 00:16:06.784 --> 00:16:08.920
- In the greek is lention, the word "lention" in greek.
- 00:16:08.920 --> 00:16:12.023
- And lention is always referring to a linen cloth.
- 00:16:12.023 --> 00:16:15.560
- Now, why do i say that?
- 00:16:15.560 --> 00:16:16.994
- Because linen in the bible, in the book of revelation,
- 00:16:16.994 --> 00:16:20.198
- Says is the righteousness of the saints, the believers.
- 00:16:20.198 --> 00:16:25.703
- So in other words, whatever--
- 00:16:25.703 --> 00:16:27.839
- We know that the water is the word of god.
- 00:16:27.839 --> 00:16:29.173
- Am i right?
- 00:16:29.173 --> 00:16:30.508
- So when he washes your feet with the water,
- 00:16:30.508 --> 00:16:33.077
- So everything come before jesus, right?
- 00:16:33.077 --> 00:16:34.512
- He gives you a word, amen? he speaks to you.
- 00:16:34.512 --> 00:16:38.950
- All through the word of scripture you are reading,
- 00:16:38.950 --> 00:16:41.819
- Don't forget: you come not to give out.
- 00:16:41.819 --> 00:16:43.988
- You don't come for your quiet time to do "quiet time,"
- 00:16:43.988 --> 00:16:47.125
- To finish the chapter that you are reading in your bible
- 00:16:47.125 --> 00:16:49.760
- Through the year,
- 00:16:49.760 --> 00:16:51.095
- To do your "duty," to make sure you "catch up."
- 00:16:51.095 --> 00:16:53.998
- You'll get nothing.
- 00:16:53.998 --> 00:16:55.366
- But you come to him knowing that he's gonna pour out to you.
- 00:16:55.366 --> 00:16:57.835
- And there's not much competition, i tell you.
- 00:16:57.835 --> 00:17:02.740
- I go to jesus--and what he's supposed to give you--right?--
- 00:17:02.740 --> 00:17:05.610
- I get it, no?
- 00:17:05.610 --> 00:17:06.944
- Does that make you angry or not?
- 00:17:06.944 --> 00:17:08.379
- What you're supposed to get-- right, all right?--
- 00:17:08.379 --> 00:17:11.082
- You would have gotten it if you would've spend time
- 00:17:11.082 --> 00:17:12.416
- With him.
- 00:17:12.416 --> 00:17:13.751
- He gave it to me.
- 00:17:13.751 --> 00:17:15.086
- Because he says that "there's no one waiting before me,
- 00:17:15.086 --> 00:17:17.421
- And i'm so full.
- 00:17:17.421 --> 00:17:18.823
- I'm love personified. i want to give.
- 00:17:18.823 --> 00:17:21.893
- I want to pour.
- 00:17:21.893 --> 00:17:23.227
- I have so many good things, perfect things,
- 00:17:23.227 --> 00:17:24.695
- That will truly satisfy.
- 00:17:24.695 --> 00:17:26.197
- But they don't want. they have no time to receive.
- 00:17:26.197 --> 00:17:28.733
- They're so busy providing for themselves.
- 00:17:28.733 --> 00:17:31.569
- Will you take it?"
- 00:17:31.569 --> 00:17:32.904
- And i say, "lord, bring it on," amen?
- 00:17:32.904 --> 00:17:38.276
- So i purposely say that to provoke you.
- 00:17:38.276 --> 00:17:41.112
- He has plenty left over, of course.
- 00:17:41.112 --> 00:17:44.315
- But don't think that god can give to you on the go.
- 00:17:44.315 --> 00:17:46.517
- It's very hard to give on the go.
- 00:17:46.517 --> 00:17:48.619
- And i'm telling you-- all right?--
- 00:17:48.619 --> 00:17:50.588
- One of the biggest problems is amusing ourselves
- 00:17:50.588 --> 00:17:53.491
- With social media and our phones and whatnot.
- 00:17:53.491 --> 00:17:56.727
- You know, the word "amuse," the word "a"--
- 00:17:56.727 --> 00:17:59.564
- "a" put in front, it always negates whatever follows.
- 00:17:59.564 --> 00:18:02.833
- So separate the "a" from the "muse."
- 00:18:02.833 --> 00:18:04.168
- You know what's "muse"?
- 00:18:04.168 --> 00:18:05.503
- Meditate. you think long enough.
- 00:18:05.503 --> 00:18:07.772
- Today's world, they-- especially our young people
- 00:18:07.772 --> 00:18:10.541
- That are in this generation, born into this age and all that,
- 00:18:10.541 --> 00:18:13.010
- You know, we are finding more and more things to amuse,
- 00:18:13.010 --> 00:18:15.079
- To occupy your mind.
- 00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:16.414
- We have no time to be musing.
- 00:18:16.414 --> 00:18:19.050
- The bible says, the psalmist says,
- 00:18:19.050 --> 00:18:20.418
- "while i was musing, the fire burned.
- 00:18:20.418 --> 00:18:21.752
- Then spake i with my tongue."
- 00:18:21.752 --> 00:18:24.655
- That's the key to a powerful ministry.
- 00:18:24.655 --> 00:18:26.691
- Meditate--"while i was musing, the fire burned
- 00:18:26.691 --> 00:18:31.696
- In the emmaus road.
- 00:18:31.696 --> 00:18:33.030
- Then i spoke with my tongue."
- 00:18:33.030 --> 00:18:36.801
- This is the key to a successful ministry
- 00:18:36.801 --> 00:18:41.839
- Of preaching the word, amen.
- 00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.976
- "while i was musing, the fire burned."
- 00:18:44.976 --> 00:18:46.544
- If you've got no fire burn, you just impart knowledge,
- 00:18:46.544 --> 00:18:49.580
- It's not going to be the same.
- 00:18:49.580 --> 00:18:51.916
- Are you listening, people?
- 00:18:51.916 --> 00:18:53.718
- So take away the "a," you have the word "muse," meditate.
- 00:18:53.718 --> 00:18:58.055
- Put the "a" there, it means what?
- 00:18:58.055 --> 00:18:59.624
- No meditate.
- 00:18:59.624 --> 00:19:00.958
- That's the word "amuse," amusement.
- 00:19:00.958 --> 00:19:02.426
- Come from there, amuse.
- 00:19:02.426 --> 00:19:03.961
- No thinking. just do.
- 00:19:03.961 --> 00:19:05.896
- "to wipe them with a towel," the word "lention," okay?
- 00:19:05.896 --> 00:19:11.469
- And i look at the word "wipe." i'm bringing this to a close.
- 00:19:11.469 --> 00:19:14.038
- Wipe. you think about the word "wipe."
- 00:19:14.038 --> 00:19:18.142
- The lord had me check this word,
- 00:19:18.142 --> 00:19:19.477
- And i was blessed because the word "wipe"
- 00:19:19.477 --> 00:19:22.179
- Is "ekmasso," ekmasso.
- 00:19:22.179 --> 00:19:25.049
- Now, what's ekmasso? ek-masso.
- 00:19:25.049 --> 00:19:27.818
- You see, it's made out of two words--
- 00:19:27.818 --> 00:19:29.153
- "ek" and "masso"-- in the greek, ek-masso.
- 00:19:29.153 --> 00:19:32.490
- Ek means out of, away from. what's masso?
- 00:19:32.490 --> 00:19:38.296
- Masso is the word "devour." it's the word "eat," or devour.
- 00:19:38.296 --> 00:19:43.934
- Ek means what? ek means what?
- 00:19:43.934 --> 00:19:46.470
- Away from, delivered from, out of being devoured.
- 00:19:46.470 --> 00:19:50.441
- So he washes your feet. then he wipes it.
- 00:19:50.441 --> 00:19:54.712
- Now, he wash your feet, it's no more dusty.
- 00:19:54.712 --> 00:19:56.681
- No more food for the devil, amen!
- 00:19:56.681 --> 00:20:02.019
- And he uses the righteousness of the saints, right?
- 00:20:02.019 --> 00:20:07.224
- He dry your feet with what? a righteousness consciousness.
- 00:20:07.224 --> 00:20:10.895
- At the end of the washing
- 00:20:10.895 --> 00:20:12.229
- Is always a righteousness consciousness.
- 00:20:12.229 --> 00:20:16.500
- You have a fresh sense that you are clean.
- 00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:19.070
- You have a fresh sense that, when he looks at you,
- 00:20:19.070 --> 00:20:21.472
- He is not finding fault with you.
- 00:20:21.472 --> 00:20:25.976
- Are you listening, people?
- 00:20:25.976 --> 00:20:29.680
- So one of the things you can do--all right?--
- 00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:32.049
- Then jesus went down.
- 00:20:32.049 --> 00:20:33.384
- Okay, i'm going to show you what you can do.
- 00:20:33.384 --> 00:20:34.719
- Drop down.
- 00:20:34.719 --> 00:20:36.053
- He says, "you shall--" then peter said,
- 00:20:36.053 --> 00:20:38.089
- After he says, "what i'm doing you don't know now."
- 00:20:38.089 --> 00:20:40.257
- "peter says, 'you shall never wash my feet!'
- 00:20:40.257 --> 00:20:41.926
- 'if i don't wash you, you have no part with me,'" okay?
- 00:20:41.926 --> 00:20:44.829
- Not "no part in me." that's salvation.
- 00:20:44.829 --> 00:20:47.164
- But peter is saved, all right? they are all saved.
- 00:20:47.164 --> 00:20:50.768
- "no part with me."
- 00:20:50.768 --> 00:20:52.103
- In other words, "you cannot walk with me."
- 00:20:52.103 --> 00:20:55.005
- You're still a believer, but there's no co-laboring,
- 00:20:55.005 --> 00:20:58.909
- No walking together, no communion.
- 00:20:58.909 --> 00:21:01.779
- To have--if i take communion, "learn to receive my love
- 00:21:01.779 --> 00:21:04.281
- Every day.
- 00:21:04.281 --> 00:21:05.616
- Receive my word," amen. are you listening, people?
- 00:21:05.616 --> 00:21:09.987
- Let me wind this down.
- 00:21:09.987 --> 00:21:11.422
- As we talk to each other, let's wash one another's feet.
- 00:21:11.422 --> 00:21:15.659
- And let the person go away feeling like,
- 00:21:15.659 --> 00:21:17.528
- "ah, i feel refreshed being in that girl's--
- 00:21:17.528 --> 00:21:19.930
- That lady's presence," you know?
- 00:21:19.930 --> 00:21:21.332
- "i feel refreshed being in that sister's presence.
- 00:21:21.332 --> 00:21:23.200
- I feel refreshed in that brother's presence.
- 00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:25.069
- I feel refreshed in that man's presence.
- 00:21:25.069 --> 00:21:27.138
- I feel refreshed after i leave him."
- 00:21:27.138 --> 00:21:29.073
- Why? you know, it's not just pastors.
- 00:21:29.073 --> 00:21:32.710
- He says that "if i then, your lord and teacher,
- 00:21:32.710 --> 00:21:34.678
- Have washed your feet, wash one another's feet--"
- 00:21:34.678 --> 00:21:36.213
- It's like his love, you know?
- 00:21:36.213 --> 00:21:37.882
- "wash one--you see what i did? do the same."
- 00:21:37.882 --> 00:21:41.285
- And you know the bible says,
- 00:21:41.285 --> 00:21:42.620
- "husband, love your wife even as christ loved the church
- 00:21:42.620 --> 00:21:45.122
- And gave himself for it,
- 00:21:45.122 --> 00:21:47.158
- That he might sanctify and cleanse it
- 00:21:47.158 --> 00:21:49.560
- With the washing of water by the word,
- 00:21:49.560 --> 00:21:51.061
- That he might sanctify and cleanse her
- 00:21:51.061 --> 00:21:52.463
- With the washing of water by the word."
- 00:21:52.463 --> 00:21:53.798
- He's talking about husband and wife,
- 00:21:53.798 --> 00:21:55.132
- But then he illustrate that this--
- 00:21:55.132 --> 00:21:56.467
- What jesus did with all of us.
- 00:21:56.467 --> 00:21:57.935
- First of all, "husband, love your wife
- 00:21:57.935 --> 00:22:00.271
- As christ loved the church and gave himself for her,
- 00:22:00.271 --> 00:22:02.406
- That he might sanctify and cleanse her
- 00:22:02.406 --> 00:22:04.108
- With the washing of water by the word,
- 00:22:04.108 --> 00:22:06.143
- That he might present a bride to himself,
- 00:22:06.143 --> 00:22:09.180
- And that he might sanctify--"
- 00:22:09.180 --> 00:22:10.514
- Sanctify means cleanse her with the washing of--
- 00:22:10.514 --> 00:22:12.750
- And make her holy, set her apart,
- 00:22:12.750 --> 00:22:14.785
- Cleanse her with the washing of water
- 00:22:14.785 --> 00:22:16.487
- By the word, that he might present her to himself
- 00:22:16.487 --> 00:22:19.290
- A glorious church, not having spot"--
- 00:22:19.290 --> 00:22:23.694
- Amen?--"or wrinkle."
- 00:22:23.694 --> 00:22:25.596
- "wrinkle" is the idea of age-- "or any such thing,
- 00:22:25.596 --> 00:22:29.667
- But that she should be holy and without blemish."
- 00:22:29.667 --> 00:22:31.502
- So jesus does it, gave himself for us on the cross.
- 00:22:31.502 --> 00:22:34.538
- Now the church is in place.
- 00:22:34.538 --> 00:22:35.873
- That's you and i-- a born again creature.
- 00:22:35.873 --> 00:22:38.576
- What do we need?
- 00:22:38.576 --> 00:22:39.910
- He need to sanctify us from the world--
- 00:22:39.910 --> 00:22:41.245
- The defilements, the contamination.
- 00:22:41.245 --> 00:22:42.780
- And i believe-- you study carefully
- 00:22:42.780 --> 00:22:44.949
- The levitical ceremonial laws, you find that, in the bible,
- 00:22:44.949 --> 00:22:49.086
- People that have uncleanness in the book of leviticus,
- 00:22:49.086 --> 00:22:52.156
- It's washed away with water.
- 00:22:52.156 --> 00:22:53.824
- The whole idea is there.
- 00:22:53.824 --> 00:22:55.159
- So i think there's a physical benefit.
- 00:22:55.159 --> 00:22:56.594
- Just like physical water washes your physical body
- 00:22:56.594 --> 00:23:01.098
- From uncleanness and refreshes you,
- 00:23:01.098 --> 00:23:04.034
- I believe the spiritual water has an effect on your body
- 00:23:04.034 --> 00:23:07.505
- As well.
- 00:23:07.505 --> 00:23:09.039
- And there's a verse there that says,
- 00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:10.374
- "having our bodies washed with pure water,"
- 00:23:10.374 --> 00:23:11.942
- In hebrews, chapter 10.
- 00:23:11.942 --> 00:23:13.477
- So the more you allow the washing of water--
- 00:23:13.477 --> 00:23:16.046
- I'm telling you-- the healthier you become.
- 00:23:16.046 --> 00:23:18.449
- Announcer: and now a closing word
- 00:23:18.516 --> 00:23:20.284
- From pastor joseph prince.
- 00:23:20.284 --> 00:23:21.785
- Joseph prince: throughout this week,
- 00:23:21.852 --> 00:23:23.687

- With the blessings of father abraham,

- The blessings of deuteronomy 28--
- 00:23:30.528 --> 00:23:32.730
- "for christ has redeemed us from all the law,
- 00:23:32.730 --> 00:23:34.899
- From all the curse there."
- 00:23:34.899 --> 00:23:36.600
- For the blessings of deuteronomy 28
- 00:23:36.600 --> 00:23:38.602
- Will come upon you, even this week,
- 00:23:38.602 --> 00:23:41.438
- You and your loved ones.
- 00:23:41.438 --> 00:23:43.307
- The lord make his face shine on you, as he already is,
- 00:23:43.307 --> 00:23:48.445
- Through the work of jesus christ,
- 00:23:48.445 --> 00:23:50.114
- Always smiling on you, throughout this week
- 00:23:50.114 --> 00:23:53.050
- And grant you great favor
- 00:23:53.050 --> 00:23:55.452
- In the sight of everyone who looks on you.
- 00:23:55.452 --> 00:23:58.856
- The lord lift up his countenance on you and your loved ones
- 00:23:58.856 --> 00:24:02.826
- And grant to you and your loved ones
- 00:24:02.826 --> 00:24:05.896
- His wonderful shalom, peace, well-being, and wholeness

- Headlines change by the hour. values shift.
- 00:24:25.115 --> 00:24:29.053
- Truth feels negotiable.
- 00:24:29.053 --> 00:24:31.422
- What was certain yesterday is no longer clear today.
- 00:24:31.422 --> 00:24:35.960
- But through all the noise and the shaking,
- 00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:38.696
- There is one who is still the same.
- 00:24:38.696 --> 00:24:42.433
- In the chaos, he is still the calm.
- 00:24:42.433 --> 00:24:45.869
- In the panic, he is still the promise.
- 00:24:45.869 --> 00:24:48.973
- Because when all else falters, fades, and falls,
- 00:24:48.973 --> 00:24:53.243
- He is still jesus above it all.
- 00:24:53.243 --> 00:24:56.013
- So no matter what's popular today
- 00:24:56.013 --> 00:24:58.415
- Or forgotten tomorrow,
- 00:24:58.415 --> 00:25:00.050
- This ministry will still always be
- 00:25:00.050 --> 00:25:03.253

- In the nicu for four months.
- 00:25:27.945 --> 00:25:30.114

- They're supposed to be, like, 85.
- 00:25:44.662 --> 00:25:46.597

- My husband and i were praying, we received holy communion,
- 00:26:01.545 --> 00:26:03.981
- Because we receive holy communion often.
- 00:26:03.981 --> 00:26:06.083

- 00:26:06.083 --> 00:26:07.785

- 00:26:07.785 --> 00:26:09.286
