- Says, "it's the glory of god to conceal a matter--" amen,
- 00:00:13.999 --> 00:00:15.934
- To conceal a matter--" amen, "but it's the glory of kings--"

- Of the old testament can only be seen
- 00:00:32.117 --> 00:00:33.118

- 00:00:33.185 --> 00:00:35.354

- 00:01:16.929 --> 00:01:17.563
- Under the shadows, we are under the new covenant,
- 00:01:17.629 --> 00:01:18.764
- We are under the new covenant, but the old testament
- 00:01:18.830 --> 00:01:19.831
- But the old testament are shadows and types,
- 00:01:19.898 --> 00:01:21.767
- Are shadows and types, and the new testament
- 00:01:21.833 --> 00:01:22.801
- And the new testament is substance and reality.
- 00:01:22.868 --> 00:01:24.636
- Is substance and reality. but we look at the details
- 00:01:24.703 --> 00:01:26.972
- But we look at the details of the substance
- 00:01:27.039 --> 00:01:29.441
- Of the substance by looking at the old testament
- 00:01:29.508 --> 00:01:31.476
- By looking at the old testament because hidden in it,
- 00:01:31.543 --> 00:01:32.711
- Because hidden in it, you know, the bible says,
- 00:01:32.778 --> 00:01:33.579
- You know, the bible says, "it's the glory of god
- 00:01:33.645 --> 00:01:34.346
- "it's the glory of god to conceal a matter--" amen,
- 00:01:34.413 --> 00:01:36.515
- To conceal a matter--" amen, "but it's the glory of kings--"
- 00:01:36.582 --> 00:01:37.916
- "but it's the glory of kings--" that's you and i, "to search it
- 00:01:37.983 --> 00:01:39.218
- That's you and i, "to search it out--" amen, "for we have been
- 00:01:39.284 --> 00:01:40.819
- Out--" amen, "for we have been made kings and priests
- 00:01:40.886 --> 00:01:41.887
- Made kings and priests unto god."
- 00:01:41.954 --> 00:01:42.788
- Unto god." so to bring out christ
- 00:01:42.854 --> 00:01:44.623
- So to bring out christ from the old testament
- 00:01:44.690 --> 00:01:46.024
- From the old testament is what i endeavored
- 00:01:46.091 --> 00:01:46.925
- Is what i endeavored to do in all my ministry,
- 00:01:46.992 --> 00:01:50.229
- To do in all my ministry, and i think that the riches
- 00:01:50.295 --> 00:01:51.730
- And i think that the riches of the old testament
- 00:01:51.797 --> 00:01:52.664
- Of the old testament can only be seen
- 00:01:52.731 --> 00:01:53.932
- Can only be seen when we unveil christ, amen?
- 00:01:53.999 --> 00:01:56.068
- When we unveil christ, amen? it is not to bring out the do's
- 00:01:56.134 --> 00:01:58.036
- It is not to bring out the do's and don'ts, bring back the law,
- 00:01:58.103 --> 00:02:00.405
- And don'ts, bring back the law, and bring back all the rituals
- 00:02:00.472 --> 00:02:02.608
- And bring back all the rituals and the ceremonies.
- 00:02:02.674 --> 00:02:04.142
- And the ceremonies. no, no, no, no, it is to see
- 00:02:04.209 --> 00:02:05.344
- No, no, no, no, it is to see christ in them all, praise god.
- 00:02:05.410 --> 00:02:07.346
- And that is when
- 00:02:07.412 --> 00:02:08.313
- The two disciples at the end of
- 00:02:08.380 --> 00:02:09.848
- Their journey, they said that,
- 00:02:09.915 --> 00:02:11.483
- "were not our hearts warmed?"
- 00:02:11.550 --> 00:02:13.485
- In fact, the lord restrained
- 00:02:13.552 --> 00:02:15.053
- In fact, the lord restrained their eyes from seeing himself
- 00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:17.322
- Their eyes from seeing himself in person.
- 00:02:17.389 --> 00:02:18.724
- In person. i asked the lord one time, "why
- 00:02:18.790 --> 00:02:19.658
- I asked the lord one time, "why didn't you just reveal yourself,
- 00:02:19.725 --> 00:02:21.059
- Didn't you just reveal yourself, show your nail pierced hands
- 00:02:21.126 --> 00:02:22.394
- Show your nail pierced hands to them and reveal yourself
- 00:02:22.461 --> 00:02:24.663
- To them and reveal yourself to them?"
- 00:02:24.730 --> 00:02:25.530
- To them?" but he says that, "it was more
- 00:02:25.597 --> 00:02:26.732
- But he says that, "it was more important for them to see me
- 00:02:26.798 --> 00:02:28.066
- Important for them to see me in the scriptures
- 00:02:28.133 --> 00:02:30.302
- In the scriptures than to see me in person."
- 00:02:30.369 --> 00:02:32.237
- Than to see me in person." this is the answer the lord gave
- 00:02:32.304 --> 00:02:33.171
- This is the answer the lord gave me, because that will give you
- 00:02:33.238 --> 00:02:35.107
- Me, because that will give you all, referring to us today who
- 00:02:35.173 --> 00:02:37.976
- All, referring to us today who are not there with them on the
- 00:02:38.043 --> 00:02:39.778
- Are not there with them on the emmaus road, equal opportunity,
- 00:02:39.845 --> 00:02:42.881
- Emmaus road, equal opportunity, amen, because as they saw
- 00:02:42.948 --> 00:02:44.182
- Amen, because as they saw the lord in the scriptures,
- 00:02:44.249 --> 00:02:46.318
- The lord in the scriptures, we have the same privilege
- 00:02:46.385 --> 00:02:47.853
- We have the same privilege to see him in the scriptures.
- 00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:49.121
- To see him in the scriptures. praise god!
- 00:02:49.187 --> 00:02:50.122
- Praise god! okay, praise the lord.
- 00:02:50.188 --> 00:02:51.089
- Okay, praise the lord. let's go to galatians 4:21,
- 00:02:51.156 --> 00:02:52.791
- Let's go to galatians 4:21, it says,
- 00:02:52.858 --> 00:02:53.525
- It says, "tell me, you who desire
- 00:02:53.592 --> 00:02:54.259
- "tell me, you who desire to be under the law,
- 00:02:54.326 --> 00:02:55.394
- To be under the law, do you not hear the law?
- 00:02:55.460 --> 00:02:56.528
- Do you not hear the law? for it is written
- 00:02:56.595 --> 00:02:57.329
- For it is written that abraham had two sons:
- 00:02:57.396 --> 00:02:59.498
- That abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman--"
- 00:02:59.564 --> 00:03:01.333
- The one by a bondwoman--" now who is that son?
- 00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:03.035
- Now who is that son? the son of hagar,
- 00:03:03.101 --> 00:03:04.236
- The son of hagar, ishmael, right?
- 00:03:04.303 --> 00:03:05.771
- Ishmael, right? remember hagar is not the legal
- 00:03:05.837 --> 00:03:07.973
- Remember hagar is not the legal wife, she's actually a slave
- 00:03:08.040 --> 00:03:10.275
- Wife, she's actually a slave that was given to abraham
- 00:03:10.342 --> 00:03:12.811
- That was given to abraham when he--during his sojourn
- 00:03:12.878 --> 00:03:14.546
- When he--during his sojourn in egypt, and she was there,
- 00:03:14.613 --> 00:03:17.749
- In egypt, and she was there, she was given.
- 00:03:17.816 --> 00:03:18.850
- She was given. and she bore abraham ishmael,
- 00:03:18.917 --> 00:03:22.754
- And she bore abraham ishmael, but the abraham's other son,
- 00:03:22.821 --> 00:03:24.823
- But the abraham's other son, the promised one,
- 00:03:24.890 --> 00:03:26.358
- The promised one, the one who came later,
- 00:03:26.425 --> 00:03:27.492
- The one who came later, was isaac, and
- 00:03:27.559 --> 00:03:28.660
- Was isaac, and that's by a free woman, sarah.
- 00:03:28.727 --> 00:03:31.430
- That's by a free woman, sarah. "but he who was of the bondwoman
- 00:03:31.496 --> 00:03:33.498
- "but he who was of the bondwoman was born according
- 00:03:33.565 --> 00:03:34.700
- Was born according to the flesh--"
- 00:03:34.766 --> 00:03:35.767
- To the flesh--" that means human effort,
- 00:03:35.834 --> 00:03:37.903
- That means human effort, "and he of the freewoman,
- 00:03:37.969 --> 00:03:39.504
- "and he of the freewoman, through promise."
- 00:03:39.571 --> 00:03:40.739
- Through promise." that's isaac, through sarah.
- 00:03:40.806 --> 00:03:43.208
- That's isaac, through sarah. okay, so one was according to
- 00:03:43.275 --> 00:03:44.242
- Okay, so one was according to flesh, human effort, the other
- 00:03:44.309 --> 00:03:46.311
- Flesh, human effort, the other is through god's promise when
- 00:03:46.378 --> 00:03:47.846
- Is through god's promise when human effort cannot avail.
- 00:03:47.913 --> 00:03:49.881
- Human effort cannot avail. "which things are symbolic?"
- 00:03:49.948 --> 00:03:51.650
- "which things are symbolic?" whoa!
- 00:03:51.717 --> 00:03:52.517
- Whoa! now here we have a lesson
- 00:03:52.584 --> 00:03:53.819
- Now here we have a lesson from the lord himself,
- 00:03:53.885 --> 00:03:54.753
- From the lord himself, from the holy spirit teaching us
- 00:03:54.820 --> 00:03:56.188
- From the holy spirit teaching us that even characters,
- 00:03:56.254 --> 00:03:58.190
- That even characters, even people in the bible,
- 00:03:58.256 --> 00:03:59.725
- Even people in the bible, in the old testament,
- 00:03:59.791 --> 00:04:01.026
- In the old testament, are actually symbolic.
- 00:04:01.093 --> 00:04:02.594
- Are actually symbolic. they are types.
- 00:04:02.661 --> 00:04:03.895
- They are types. they are shadows of something
- 00:04:03.962 --> 00:04:05.864
- They are shadows of something that god wants to convey
- 00:04:05.931 --> 00:04:06.965
- That god wants to convey to us, amen.
- 00:04:07.032 --> 00:04:08.266
- To us, amen. so may we have the humility,
- 00:04:08.333 --> 00:04:10.502
- So may we have the humility, amen, to ask the holy spirit
- 00:04:10.569 --> 00:04:12.337
- Amen, to ask the holy spirit to open our eyes
- 00:04:12.404 --> 00:04:13.438
- To open our eyes to see jesus in it all.
- 00:04:13.505 --> 00:04:15.207
- To see jesus in it all. praise the lord, amen.
- 00:04:15.273 --> 00:04:17.008
- Praise the lord, amen. amen, and instead
- 00:04:17.075 --> 00:04:18.009
- Amen, and instead of like trusting ourselves
- 00:04:18.076 --> 00:04:19.177
- Of like trusting ourselves that i can interpret
- 00:04:19.244 --> 00:04:20.278
- That i can interpret the old testament, just bring
- 00:04:20.345 --> 00:04:21.346
- The old testament, just bring out what you see, amen.
- 00:04:21.413 --> 00:04:22.748
- Out what you see, amen. no, no, it's more
- 00:04:22.814 --> 00:04:23.815
- No, no, it's more than just superficial.
- 00:04:23.882 --> 00:04:25.150
- Than just superficial. there is hidden in it, amen,
- 00:04:25.217 --> 00:04:26.785
- There is hidden in it, amen, all these wonderful antitypes,
- 00:04:26.852 --> 00:04:30.422
- All these wonderful antitypes, amen, of the types, amen.
- 00:04:30.489 --> 00:04:32.090
- Amen, of the types, amen. this substance of the shadow,
- 00:04:32.157 --> 00:04:34.192
- This substance of the shadow, praise god.
- 00:04:34.259 --> 00:04:35.193
- Praise god. and these things are symbolic,
- 00:04:35.260 --> 00:04:36.862
- And these things are symbolic, the two sons are symbolic,
- 00:04:36.928 --> 00:04:38.163
- The two sons are symbolic, the two women are symbolic.
- 00:04:38.230 --> 00:04:39.564
- The two women are symbolic. "for these
- 00:04:39.631 --> 00:04:40.665
- "for these are the two covenants--"
- 00:04:40.732 --> 00:04:42.701
- Are the two covenants--" old covenant and new covenant,
- 00:04:42.768 --> 00:04:44.136
- Old covenant and new covenant, "the one from mount sinai
- 00:04:44.202 --> 00:04:46.471
- "the one from mount sinai which gives birth to bondage,
- 00:04:46.538 --> 00:04:48.707
- Which gives birth to bondage, which is hagar--"
- 00:04:48.774 --> 00:04:49.841
- Which is hagar--" don't forget,
- 00:04:49.908 --> 00:04:50.709
- Don't forget, the law came from mount sinai.
- 00:04:50.776 --> 00:04:52.377
- The law came from mount sinai. we are not on mount sinai.
- 00:04:52.444 --> 00:04:53.912
- We are not on mount sinai. in fact, in hebrews 12, it says,
- 00:04:53.979 --> 00:04:55.680
- In fact, in hebrews 12, it says, "you are not come unto the
- 00:04:55.747 --> 00:04:57.249
- "you are not come unto the mountain that burns with fire,
- 00:04:57.315 --> 00:04:59.551
- That shakes,
- 00:04:59.718 --> 00:05:00.719
- That shakes, that there was trumpets,
- 00:05:00.786 --> 00:05:01.787
- That there was trumpets, and there was thundering
- 00:05:01.853 --> 00:05:02.888
- And there was thundering and all that."
- 00:05:02.954 --> 00:05:03.688
- And all that." "that even moses,"
- 00:05:03.755 --> 00:05:05.590
- "that even moses," the bible says, "he said,
- 00:05:05.657 --> 00:05:06.792
- The bible says, "he said, 'i exceedingly fear and quake.'"
- 00:05:06.858 --> 00:05:09.027
- 'i exceedingly fear and quake.'" so the best of them said, "i was
- 00:05:09.094 --> 00:05:10.662
- So the best of them said, "i was so frightened, i was so afraid."
- 00:05:10.729 --> 00:05:12.964
- So frightened, i was so afraid." no, you're not come
- 00:05:13.031 --> 00:05:13.698
- No, you're not come to the mountain.
- 00:05:13.765 --> 00:05:14.666
- To the mountain. that's mount sinai.
- 00:05:14.733 --> 00:05:16.001
- That's mount sinai. but child of god, you are come
- 00:05:16.067 --> 00:05:17.436
- But child of god, you are come to mount zion, to the city
- 00:05:17.502 --> 00:05:19.371
- To mount zion, to the city of the living god, amen.
- 00:05:19.438 --> 00:05:21.039
- Of the living god, amen. to an innumerable company
- 00:05:21.106 --> 00:05:22.774
- To an innumerable company of angels.
- 00:05:22.841 --> 00:05:23.575
- Of angels. notice angels are not mentioned
- 00:05:23.642 --> 00:05:25.310
- Notice angels are not mentioned in mount sinai, in hebrews 12,
- 00:05:25.377 --> 00:05:28.246
- In mount sinai, in hebrews 12, they have moved mountains.
- 00:05:28.313 --> 00:05:29.714
- They have moved mountains. even god is not mentioned there.
- 00:05:29.781 --> 00:05:31.183
- Even god is not mentioned there. god has moved mountains, amen.
- 00:05:31.249 --> 00:05:33.251
- God has moved mountains, amen. and god has moved mountains
- 00:05:33.318 --> 00:05:34.653
- And god has moved mountains and we are still camped
- 00:05:34.719 --> 00:05:35.887
- And we are still camped at mount sinai.
- 00:05:35.954 --> 00:05:37.422
- At mount sinai. may we all, and preachers, amen,
- 00:05:37.489 --> 00:05:39.825
- Move our pulpit from mount sinai
- 00:05:39.891 --> 00:05:42.761
- Move our pulpit from mount sinai to mount zion, amen.
- 00:05:42.828 --> 00:05:45.030
- To mount zion, amen. from preaching,
- 00:05:45.096 --> 00:05:45.831
- From preaching, "doing, doing, doing."
- 00:05:45.897 --> 00:05:47.232
- "doing, doing, doing." to preaching, "it is done.
- 00:05:47.299 --> 00:05:48.600
- To preaching, "it is done. praise the lord."
- 00:05:48.667 --> 00:05:49.468
- Praise the lord." and when you rest on it, even
- 00:05:49.534 --> 00:05:50.869
- And when you rest on it, even the things you need to do now,
- 00:05:50.936 --> 00:05:52.370
- The things you need to do now, will be accomplished in
- 00:05:52.437 --> 00:05:53.371
- Will be accomplished in and through you, praise god,
- 00:05:53.438 --> 00:05:54.639
- And through you, praise god, thank you jesus.
- 00:05:54.706 --> 00:05:55.140
- Thank you jesus. so these two
- 00:05:55.207 --> 00:05:55.640
- So these two "things are symbolic,
- 00:05:55.707 --> 00:05:57.642
- "things are symbolic, for these are the two covenants.
- 00:05:57.709 --> 00:05:58.443
- For these are the two covenants. the one from mount sinai, which
- 00:05:58.510 --> 00:05:59.744
- The one from mount sinai, which gives birth to bondage which is
- 00:05:59.811 --> 00:06:01.012
- Gives birth to bondage which is hagar--" that slave girl, "for
- 00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:03.748
- This hagar is mount sinai in
- 00:06:03.815 --> 00:06:05.684
- This hagar is mount sinai in arabia and corresponds to
- 00:06:05.750 --> 00:06:06.985
- Arabia and corresponds to jerusalem which now is, and is
- 00:06:07.052 --> 00:06:08.520
- Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
- 00:06:08.587 --> 00:06:10.956
- But the jerusalem above is free
- 00:06:11.022 --> 00:06:13.358
- But the jerusalem above is free which is the mother of us all.
- 00:06:13.425 --> 00:06:15.293
- Which is the mother of us all. for it is written, "'rejoice,

- For it is written, "'rejoice, o barren, you who do not bear!

- Break forth and shout, you who are not in labor!

- You who are not in labor! for the desolate--" sarah,
- 00:06:20.899 --> 00:06:22.901
- For the desolate--" sarah, "who for many years

- "who for many years had not even had one child,
- 00:06:23.768 --> 00:06:26.071
- Had not even had one child, even in her younger years,

- Even in her younger years, she was barren.
- 00:06:27.372 --> 00:06:28.373
- She was barren. well, she will "have many more
- 00:06:28.440 --> 00:06:30.075
- Well, she will "have many more children than she
- 00:06:30.141 --> 00:06:30.942
- Children than she who has a husband."
- 00:06:31.009 --> 00:06:32.444
- Who has a husband." all right?
- 00:06:32.511 --> 00:06:33.378
- All right? "now we, brethren, as isaac was,
- 00:06:33.445 --> 00:06:36.214
- "now we, brethren, as isaac was, are children of promise," amen?
- 00:06:36.281 --> 00:06:38.583
- You and i, we are born again.
- 00:06:38.650 --> 00:06:40.318
- You and i, we are born again. are we born again by our own
- 00:06:40.385 --> 00:06:41.419
- Are we born again by our own efforts?
- 00:06:41.486 --> 00:06:42.153
- Efforts? no, we are born again
- 00:06:42.220 --> 00:06:43.522
- No, we are born again supernaturally, amen?
- 00:06:43.588 --> 00:06:44.823
- Supernaturally, amen? we are born again by the spirit,
- 00:06:44.890 --> 00:06:46.591
- We are born again by the spirit, amen?
- 00:06:46.658 --> 00:06:47.459
- Amen? it was god's promise and now
- 00:06:47.526 --> 00:06:49.694
- It was god's promise and now all of us are the fulfillment
- 00:06:49.761 --> 00:06:52.030
- All of us are the fulfillment of that promise.
- 00:06:52.097 --> 00:06:52.931
- Of that promise. he promised abraham,
- 00:06:52.998 --> 00:06:54.132
- He promised abraham, "in your seed, all the nations
- 00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:55.934
- "in your seed, all the nations will be blessed."
- 00:06:56.001 --> 00:06:57.035
- Will be blessed." "but as he," now watch this.
- 00:06:57.102 --> 00:06:58.803
- "but as he," now watch this. "but as he who was born
- 00:06:58.870 --> 00:07:00.038
- "but as he who was born according to the flesh--"
- 00:07:00.105 --> 00:07:02.274
- According to the flesh--" now that's ishmael.
- 00:07:02.340 --> 00:07:03.842
- Now that's ishmael. ishmael was born according
- 00:07:03.909 --> 00:07:04.676
- Ishmael was born according to the flesh, and
- 00:07:04.743 --> 00:07:05.810
- To the flesh, and he's 13 years older than isaac,
- 00:07:05.877 --> 00:07:08.280
- He's 13 years older than isaac, he persecuted him as he was born
- 00:07:08.346 --> 00:07:11.449
- He persecuted him as he was born according to the flesh then,
- 00:07:11.516 --> 00:07:12.918
- According to the flesh then, persecuted him who was born
- 00:07:12.984 --> 00:07:14.553
- Persecuted him who was born according to the spirit.
- 00:07:14.619 --> 00:07:16.688
- According to the spirit. even so, it is now.
- 00:07:16.755 --> 00:07:18.590
- Even so, it is now. so right now,
- 00:07:18.657 --> 00:07:19.524
- So right now, we are seeing that happened.
- 00:07:19.591 --> 00:07:20.759
- We are seeing that happened. that the people of the--
- 00:07:20.825 --> 00:07:23.328
- That the people of the-- according to the flesh,
- 00:07:23.395 --> 00:07:24.329
- According to the flesh, because to keep the law denotes
- 00:07:24.396 --> 00:07:26.731
- Because to keep the law denotes that you are under the flesh,
- 00:07:26.798 --> 00:07:28.700
- That you are under the flesh, because only by human effort
- 00:07:28.767 --> 00:07:30.669
- Because only by human effort can you keep the law.
- 00:07:30.735 --> 00:07:32.370
- Can you keep the law. but can you keep the law?
- 00:07:32.437 --> 00:07:33.238
- But can you keep the law? no, all right?
- 00:07:33.305 --> 00:07:34.673
- No, all right? it denotes the idea of,
- 00:07:34.739 --> 00:07:36.942
- It denotes the idea of, you shall not, you shall not,
- 00:07:37.008 --> 00:07:38.076
- You shall not, you shall not, you shall not means
- 00:07:38.143 --> 00:07:39.711
- You shall not means your efforts, amen.
- 00:07:39.778 --> 00:07:41.680
- Your efforts, amen. so when men try to keep the law,
- 00:07:41.746 --> 00:07:42.747
- So when men try to keep the law, they do the very opposite.
- 00:07:42.814 --> 00:07:44.249
- They do the very opposite. remember with israel, the foot
- 00:07:44.316 --> 00:07:45.317
- Remember with israel, the foot of mount sinai, they said that,
- 00:07:45.383 --> 00:07:46.284
- Of mount sinai, they said that, "all that god says, we will do
- 00:07:46.351 --> 00:07:48.520
- "all that god says, we will do it, we can do it actually."
- 00:07:48.587 --> 00:07:50.355
- It, we can do it actually." they boasted, and in exodus 19,
- 00:07:50.422 --> 00:07:52.791
- They boasted, and in exodus 19, when they said that,
- 00:07:52.857 --> 00:07:54.392
- When they said that, god had not yet even given them
- 00:07:54.459 --> 00:07:56.294
- God had not yet even given them the ten commandments.
- 00:07:56.361 --> 00:07:57.562
- The ten commandments. so they boasted that they
- 00:07:57.629 --> 00:07:58.563
- So they boasted that they are able to keep
- 00:07:58.630 --> 00:07:59.397
- Are able to keep all the ten commandments,
- 00:07:59.464 --> 00:08:00.265
- All the ten commandments, what happened?
- 00:08:00.332 --> 00:08:01.299
- What happened? they broke the very first one,
- 00:08:01.366 --> 00:08:02.867
- They broke the very first one, "thou shalt have no other gods
- 00:08:02.934 --> 00:08:04.302
- "thou shalt have no other gods before me."
- 00:08:04.369 --> 00:08:05.070
- Before me." next thing you see,
- 00:08:05.136 --> 00:08:05.804
- Next thing you see, you see a golden calf
- 00:08:05.870 --> 00:08:06.605
- You see a golden calf at the foot of mount sinai.
- 00:08:06.671 --> 00:08:08.707
- At the foot of mount sinai. so the attempt to want to keep
- 00:08:08.773 --> 00:08:10.375
- So the attempt to want to keep it, even the good intention,
- 00:08:10.442 --> 00:08:14.145
- It, even the good intention, it actually belies the fact
- 00:08:14.212 --> 00:08:15.880
- It actually belies the fact that man doesn't know
- 00:08:15.947 --> 00:08:16.848
- That man doesn't know he cannot, amen.
- 00:08:16.915 --> 00:08:18.383
- He cannot, amen. that whatever he does will be
- 00:08:18.450 --> 00:08:19.818
- That whatever he does will be born out of the flesh, and the
- 00:08:19.884 --> 00:08:22.253
- Born out of the flesh, and the flesh profiteth nothing, amen.
- 00:08:22.320 --> 00:08:24.789
- Flesh profiteth nothing, amen. the flesh cannot accomplish
- 00:08:24.856 --> 00:08:26.791
- The flesh cannot accomplish only what god can do
- 00:08:26.858 --> 00:08:28.059
- Only what god can do in and through us,
- 00:08:28.126 --> 00:08:29.027
- In and through us, praise god, amen.
- 00:08:29.094 --> 00:08:30.462
- Praise god, amen. so notice that it says
- 00:08:30.528 --> 00:08:31.363
- So notice that it says that ishmael was born after
- 00:08:31.429 --> 00:08:33.298
- That ishmael was born after human effort, persecuted isaac.
- 00:08:33.365 --> 00:08:37.769
- Human effort, persecuted isaac. okay, when did this happen?
- 00:08:37.836 --> 00:08:39.938
- Okay, when did this happen? when did this happen?
- 00:08:40.005 --> 00:08:40.872
- When did this happen? this happened during the time
- 00:08:40.939 --> 00:08:42.807
- This happened during the time when isaac was weaned from milk.
- 00:08:42.874 --> 00:08:46.945
- When isaac was weaned from milk. he's able now
- 00:08:47.012 --> 00:08:47.612
- He's able now to take solid food.
- 00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:49.180
- To take solid food. do you remember that verse
- 00:08:49.247 --> 00:08:50.215
- Do you remember that verse in hebrews that says,
- 00:08:50.281 --> 00:08:52.984
- In hebrews that says, "he that uses milk is unskillful
- 00:08:53.051 --> 00:08:56.087
- "he that uses milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness."
- 00:08:56.154 --> 00:08:58.623
- In the word of righteousness." so when they hear righteousness,
- 00:08:58.690 --> 00:09:00.191
- So when they hear righteousness, what do they think of?
- 00:09:00.258 --> 00:09:01.259
- What do they think of? action.
- 00:09:01.326 --> 00:09:01.893
- Action. i must do righteous,
- 00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:03.094
- I must do righteous, to be righteous, amen.
- 00:09:03.161 --> 00:09:04.963
- To be righteous, amen. but the one who is mature,
- 00:09:05.030 --> 00:09:06.431
- But the one who is mature, when he hears it,
- 00:09:06.498 --> 00:09:07.766
- When he hears it, the one who is born again,
- 00:09:07.832 --> 00:09:09.234
- The one who is born again, the one who has come
- 00:09:09.300 --> 00:09:10.101
- The one who has come to maturity and sonship.
- 00:09:10.168 --> 00:09:11.469
- To maturity and sonship. when he hears
- 00:09:11.536 --> 00:09:12.737
- When he hears the word "righteousness,"
- 00:09:12.804 --> 00:09:13.872
- The word "righteousness," he knows it's a gift, amen.
- 00:09:13.938 --> 00:09:15.807
- He knows it's a gift, amen. it's a gift to be received.
- 00:09:15.874 --> 00:09:17.108
- It's a gift to be received. and that gift, when received,
- 00:09:17.175 --> 00:09:18.610
- And that gift, when received, will transform you, amen.
- 00:09:18.677 --> 00:09:20.478
- Will transform you, amen. it will transform your life,
- 00:09:20.545 --> 00:09:22.113
- It will transform your life, and cause you to reign in life,
- 00:09:22.180 --> 00:09:23.615
- And cause you to reign in life, praise god.
- 00:09:23.682 --> 00:09:24.649
- Praise god. so, the bible says that,
- 00:09:24.716 --> 00:09:27.152
- So, the bible says that, "someone who thinks
- 00:09:27.218 --> 00:09:29.320
- "someone who thinks of the word "righteousness"
- 00:09:29.387 --> 00:09:30.355
- Of the word "righteousness" as something that you do,
- 00:09:30.422 --> 00:09:31.723
- As something that you do, he's an infant, amen.
- 00:09:31.790 --> 00:09:33.558
- He's an infant, amen. he's still on milk,
- 00:09:33.625 --> 00:09:35.960
- He's still on milk, he's not ready for solid food.
- 00:09:36.027 --> 00:09:38.096
- He's not ready for solid food. okay.
- 00:09:38.163 --> 00:09:39.097
- Okay. so when was this persecution?
- 00:09:39.164 --> 00:09:40.432
- So when was this persecution? when did sarah see this
- 00:09:40.498 --> 00:09:43.568
- When did sarah see this ishmael persecuting isaac?
- 00:09:43.635 --> 00:09:45.904
- Ishmael persecuting isaac? let's look at genesis 21, "so
- 00:09:45.970 --> 00:09:47.772
- Let's look at genesis 21, "so the child grew and was weaned.
- 00:09:47.839 --> 00:09:49.507
- The child grew and was weaned. and abraham made a great feast
- 00:09:49.574 --> 00:09:51.176
- And abraham made a great feast on the same day
- 00:09:51.242 --> 00:09:52.677
- On the same day that isaac was weaned.
- 00:09:52.744 --> 00:09:54.045
- That isaac was weaned. and sarah saw the son of hagar
- 00:09:54.112 --> 00:09:55.547
- And sarah saw the son of hagar the egyptian, ishmael,
- 00:09:55.613 --> 00:09:57.549
- Whom she had borne to abraham,
- 00:09:57.615 --> 00:09:58.550
- Scoffing--" making fun of
- 00:09:58.616 --> 00:10:00.118
- "isaac," "therefore she said
- 00:10:00.185 --> 00:10:01.720
- To abraham, "cast out
- 00:10:01.786 --> 00:10:03.288
- This bondwoman and her son.
- 00:10:03.354 --> 00:10:05.590
- For the son of this bondwoman
- 00:10:05.657 --> 00:10:07.258
- Shall not be heir with my son,
- 00:10:07.325 --> 00:10:09.360
- Namely with isaac."
- 00:10:09.427 --> 00:10:10.795
- This is serious because
- 00:10:10.862 --> 00:10:11.696
- It's talking about inheritance.
- 00:10:11.763 --> 00:10:13.665
- It's talking about heirship.
- 00:10:13.965 --> 00:10:15.633
- It's talking about heirship. can you receive under the law?
- 00:10:15.700 --> 00:10:18.336
- Can you receive under the law? can you receive
- 00:10:18.403 --> 00:10:19.437
- Can you receive under human effort?
- 00:10:19.504 --> 00:10:20.972
- Under human effort? or we can only receive
- 00:10:21.039 --> 00:10:22.674
- Or we can only receive by grace through faith, amen?
- 00:10:22.741 --> 00:10:25.610
- By grace through faith, amen? which is the one?
- 00:10:25.677 --> 00:10:26.978
- Which is the one? notice what sarah said.
- 00:10:27.045 --> 00:10:29.447
- Notice what sarah said. "'cast out the bondwoman
- 00:10:29.514 --> 00:10:30.715
- "'cast out the bondwoman and her son, ' she told abraham.
- 00:10:30.782 --> 00:10:32.350
- And her son, ' she told abraham. what she said in genesis
- 00:10:32.417 --> 00:10:34.786
- What she said in genesis became scripture.
- 00:10:34.853 --> 00:10:37.055
- Became scripture. and it's god's counsel
- 00:10:37.122 --> 00:10:39.057
- And it's god's counsel and god's command to all of us.
- 00:10:39.124 --> 00:10:41.526
- And god's command to all of us. let's go back to galatians
- 00:10:41.593 --> 00:10:42.660
- Let's go back to galatians and see this.
- 00:10:42.727 --> 00:10:43.762
- And see this. "nevertheless, what does the--"
- 00:10:43.828 --> 00:10:45.196
- "nevertheless, what does the--" not sarah, say,
- 00:10:45.263 --> 00:10:46.464
- Not sarah, say, "what does the scripture say?
- 00:10:46.531 --> 00:10:48.600
- "what does the scripture say? cast out the bondwoman
- 00:10:48.666 --> 00:10:49.868
- Cast out the bondwoman and her son."
- 00:10:49.934 --> 00:10:50.668
- And her son." god is saying, cast out
- 00:10:50.735 --> 00:10:52.637
- God is saying, cast out the entire system that comes
- 00:10:52.704 --> 00:10:54.506
- The entire system that comes from mount sinai and her son.
- 00:10:54.572 --> 00:10:57.475
- From mount sinai and her son. "for the son of the bondwoman
- 00:10:57.542 --> 00:10:59.377
- "for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir
- 00:10:59.444 --> 00:11:00.645
- Shall not be heir with the son of the free woman."
- 00:11:00.712 --> 00:11:03.548
- With the son of the free woman." so every time we are trying
- 00:11:03.615 --> 00:11:04.549
- So every time we are trying to receive, for example,
- 00:11:04.616 --> 00:11:05.550
- To receive, for example, we try to receive healing,
- 00:11:05.617 --> 00:11:07.118
- We try to receive healing, we try to receive
- 00:11:07.185 --> 00:11:09.020
- We try to receive this breakthrough in the area
- 00:11:09.087 --> 00:11:11.122
- This breakthrough in the area of our addictions, we try
- 00:11:11.189 --> 00:11:12.690
- Of our addictions, we try to receive something from god
- 00:11:12.757 --> 00:11:14.192
- To receive something from god that we want to receive,
- 00:11:14.259 --> 00:11:15.193
- That we want to receive, but we still feel
- 00:11:15.260 --> 00:11:16.161
- But we still feel we must qualify for it.
- 00:11:16.227 --> 00:11:17.428
- We must qualify for it. we don't trust his love,
- 00:11:17.495 --> 00:11:18.863
- We don't trust his love, we still feel that
- 00:11:18.930 --> 00:11:20.431
- We still feel that there's a part for me to play
- 00:11:20.498 --> 00:11:22.433
- There's a part for me to play there's a part for me to do.
- 00:11:22.500 --> 00:11:23.701
- There's a part for me to do. and then that causes you
- 00:11:23.768 --> 00:11:24.903
- And then that causes you to be doubting yourself.
- 00:11:24.969 --> 00:11:26.738
- To be doubting yourself. yet the more you doubt yourself,
- 00:11:26.805 --> 00:11:27.939
- Yet the more you doubt yourself, the more you want
- 00:11:28.006 --> 00:11:28.673
- The more you want to do to eradicate that guilt
- 00:11:28.740 --> 00:11:31.576
- To do to eradicate that guilt that you feel, that sense
- 00:11:31.643 --> 00:11:32.911
- That you feel, that sense of being far from god.
- 00:11:32.977 --> 00:11:34.445
- Of being far from god. all this is opposite
- 00:11:34.512 --> 00:11:35.446
- All this is opposite of the spirit of sonship.
- 00:11:35.513 --> 00:11:38.750
- Of the spirit of sonship. the bible says, "cast out
- 00:11:38.817 --> 00:11:39.784
- The bible says, "cast out the bondwoman and her son,
- 00:11:39.851 --> 00:11:41.519
- The bondwoman and her son, for that bondwoman,
- 00:11:41.586 --> 00:11:43.888
- For that bondwoman, that son of the bondwoman
- 00:11:43.955 --> 00:11:45.023
- That son of the bondwoman will not be heir
- 00:11:45.089 --> 00:11:46.157
- Will not be heir with the son of the free woman."
- 00:11:46.224 --> 00:11:47.458
- With the son of the free woman." only by grace can you inherit,
- 00:11:47.525 --> 00:11:50.128
- Only by grace can you inherit, amen.
- 00:11:50.195 --> 00:11:50.795
- Amen. it's serious when god says,
- 00:11:50.862 --> 00:11:51.462
- It's serious when god says, "cast out the bondwoman
- 00:11:51.529 --> 00:11:52.330
- "cast out the bondwoman and her son," amen.
- 00:11:52.397 --> 00:11:54.833
- And her son," amen. so, you know, when--think
- 00:11:54.899 --> 00:11:56.568
- So, you know, when--think about it, when did this happen?"
- 00:11:56.634 --> 00:11:58.036
- About it, when did this happen?" when isaac was weaned from milk
- 00:11:58.102 --> 00:12:01.806
- When isaac was weaned from milk for solid food.
- 00:12:01.873 --> 00:12:03.041
- For solid food. remember this, ishmael and isaac
- 00:12:03.107 --> 00:12:05.009
- Remember this, ishmael and isaac share the same father.
- 00:12:05.076 --> 00:12:07.212
- Share the same father. their father is abraham, right.
- 00:12:07.278 --> 00:12:10.381
- Their father is abraham, right. so again, the typology is this,
- 00:12:10.448 --> 00:12:12.450
- So again, the typology is this, you know, people who come
- 00:12:12.517 --> 00:12:13.318
- You know, people who come against grace, because
- 00:12:13.384 --> 00:12:14.752
- Against grace, because our mother is sarah, grace,
- 00:12:14.819 --> 00:12:17.255
- Our mother is sarah, grace, and ishmael, the group,
- 00:12:17.322 --> 00:12:19.524
- And ishmael, the group, the ishmael company,
- 00:12:19.591 --> 00:12:22.126
- The ishmael company, their people, is actually
- 00:12:22.193 --> 00:12:23.461
- Their people, is actually our brother in christ.
- 00:12:23.528 --> 00:12:24.662
- Our brother in christ. they share the same
- 00:12:24.729 --> 00:12:25.763
- They share the same heavenly father as us,
- 00:12:25.830 --> 00:12:27.232
- Heavenly father as us, but not the same mother.
- 00:12:27.298 --> 00:12:29.734
- But not the same mother. their mother is law, hagar,
- 00:12:29.801 --> 00:12:32.103
- Their mother is law, hagar, from mount sinai,
- 00:12:32.170 --> 00:12:33.404
- From mount sinai, and they will fight for her.
- 00:12:33.471 --> 00:12:34.906
- And they will fight for her. amen?
- 00:12:34.973 --> 00:12:35.840
- Amen? whereas they will say, right?
- 00:12:35.907 --> 00:12:37.375
- Whereas they will say, right? we are people
- 00:12:37.442 --> 00:12:38.343
- We are people that betrayed the truth
- 00:12:38.409 --> 00:12:40.712
- That betrayed the truth and we are preaching heresy,
- 00:12:40.778 --> 00:12:42.914
- And we are preaching heresy, when actually this is the truth
- 00:12:42.981 --> 00:12:44.716
- When actually this is the truth that will set you free, amen.
- 00:12:44.782 --> 00:12:46.784
- That will set you free, amen. we are, our mother is,
- 00:12:46.851 --> 00:12:49.487
- We are, our mother is, grace, sarah, amen.
- 00:12:49.554 --> 00:12:52.023
- Grace, sarah, amen. the one that god has chosen,
- 00:12:52.090 --> 00:12:53.725
- The one that god has chosen, amen.
- 00:12:53.791 --> 00:12:54.492
- Amen. and we are spiritual isaacs,
- 00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:57.729
- And we are spiritual isaacs, so to speak.
- 00:12:57.795 --> 00:12:58.596
- So to speak. but notice that these brothers
- 00:12:58.663 --> 00:12:59.931
- But notice that these brothers of ours, they are still
- 00:12:59.998 --> 00:13:00.965
- Of ours, they are still our brothers.
- 00:13:01.032 --> 00:13:02.333
- Our brothers. we share the same
- 00:13:02.400 --> 00:13:03.201
- We share the same heavenly father,
- 00:13:03.268 --> 00:13:04.202
- Heavenly father, but not the same mother.
- 00:13:04.269 --> 00:13:06.170
- But not the same mother. amen.
- 00:13:06.237 --> 00:13:07.338
- Amen. so you can say that, you know,
- 00:13:07.405 --> 00:13:08.806
- So you can say that, you know, are you my brother or are you a
- 00:13:08.873 --> 00:13:10.241
- Are you my brother or are you a brother from another mother?
- 00:13:10.308 --> 00:13:13.278
- Brother from another mother? amen.
- 00:13:13.344 --> 00:13:14.145
- Amen. same father,
- 00:13:14.212 --> 00:13:15.246
- Same father, but not the same mama, right?
- 00:13:15.313 --> 00:13:17.081
- But not the same mama, right? our mama is grace.
- 00:13:17.148 --> 00:13:18.583
- Our mama is grace. their mama is hagar, law.
- 00:13:18.650 --> 00:13:21.252
- Their mama is hagar, law. okay, but the bible says what?
- 00:13:21.319 --> 00:13:22.587
- Okay, but the bible says what? "cast out the bondwoman
- 00:13:22.654 --> 00:13:23.755
- "cast out the bondwoman and her son,"
- 00:13:23.821 --> 00:13:24.822
- And her son," and the bible is very serious.
- 00:13:24.889 --> 00:13:26.024
- And the bible is very serious. as long as you are in that
- 00:13:26.090 --> 00:13:27.058
- As long as you are in that state, you cannot receive
- 00:13:27.125 --> 00:13:29.260
- State, you cannot receive from god, amen.
- 00:13:29.327 --> 00:13:31.596
- From god, amen. so a lot of us, we are trying
- 00:13:31.663 --> 00:13:32.664
- So a lot of us, we are trying to receive by being in a spirit
- 00:13:32.730 --> 00:13:33.898
- To receive by being in a spirit of slavery.
- 00:13:33.965 --> 00:13:35.099
- Of slavery. and the bible says, "even in the
- 00:13:35.166 --> 00:13:36.200
- And the bible says, "even in the promised land, you cannot
- 00:13:36.267 --> 00:13:37.435
- Promised land, you cannot inherit the promised land--"
- 00:13:37.502 --> 00:13:39.070
- Inherit the promised land--" this beautiful inheritance
- 00:13:39.137 --> 00:13:41.673
- This beautiful inheritance until you say, "my father."
- 00:13:41.739 --> 00:13:44.776
- Until you say, "my father." okay, praise the lord.
- 00:13:44.842 --> 00:13:46.110
- Okay, praise the lord. thank you, jesus.
- 00:13:46.177 --> 00:13:47.612
- Thank you, jesus. remember this, all this happened
- 00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:49.714
- Remember this, all this happened when isaac was weaned.
- 00:13:49.781 --> 00:13:53.484
- When isaac was weaned. so i see prophetically, the
- 00:13:53.551 --> 00:13:55.019
- So i see prophetically, the whole church of jesus christ now
- 00:13:55.086 --> 00:13:56.821
- Whole church of jesus christ now coming into grace, they realized
- 00:13:56.888 --> 00:13:58.890
- Coming into grace, they realized that to have part grace,
- 00:13:58.957 --> 00:14:01.492
- That to have part grace, part law is mixture, amen.
- 00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.162
- Part law is mixture, amen. it's trying to put the new wine
- 00:14:04.228 --> 00:14:05.496
- It's trying to put the new wine into the old wine skin.
- 00:14:05.563 --> 00:14:06.931
- Into the old wine skin. you will lose both.
- 00:14:06.998 --> 00:14:08.499
- You will lose both. amen.
- 00:14:08.566 --> 00:14:09.334
- Amen. you will lose the severity
- 00:14:09.400 --> 00:14:10.268
- You will lose the severity of the law and the freeness
- 00:14:10.335 --> 00:14:11.402
- Of the law and the freeness of grace.
- 00:14:11.469 --> 00:14:12.370
- Of grace. you will lose both,
- 00:14:12.437 --> 00:14:13.037
- You will lose both, you cannot mix the two.
- 00:14:13.104 --> 00:14:13.738
- You cannot mix the two. it's not balance.
- 00:14:13.805 --> 00:14:14.839
- It's not balance. what man calls balance,
- 00:14:14.906 --> 00:14:16.307
- What man calls balance, god himself calls mixture.
- 00:14:16.374 --> 00:14:18.409
- God himself calls mixture. jesus says it's mixture, amen.
- 00:14:18.476 --> 00:14:20.445
- Jesus says it's mixture, amen. you cannot put a new patch of
- 00:14:20.511 --> 00:14:21.980
- You cannot put a new patch of garment--a new patch of cloth
- 00:14:22.046 --> 00:14:24.682
- Garment--a new patch of cloth on an old garment.
- 00:14:24.749 --> 00:14:26.718
- On an old garment. it will tear.
- 00:14:26.784 --> 00:14:27.919
- It will tear. it will not work.
- 00:14:27.986 --> 00:14:29.220
- It will not work. okay?
- 00:14:29.287 --> 00:14:30.421
- Okay? you must cast out
- 00:14:30.488 --> 00:14:31.155
- You must cast out the old system.
- 00:14:31.222 --> 00:14:31.923
- The old system. you must be completely
- 00:14:31.990 --> 00:14:32.724
- You must be completely under grace, amen, to inherit.
- 00:14:32.790 --> 00:14:35.193
- Under grace, amen, to inherit. hallelujah.
- 00:14:35.259 --> 00:14:36.461
- Hallelujah. praise the lord.
- 00:14:36.527 --> 00:14:37.462
- Praise the lord. when did all this happen?
- 00:14:37.528 --> 00:14:39.764
- When did all this happen? when isaac was weaned.
- 00:14:39.831 --> 00:14:40.765
- When isaac was weaned. i believe the church right now
- 00:14:40.832 --> 00:14:42.033
- I believe the church right now is being weaned.
- 00:14:42.100 --> 00:14:43.134
- Is being weaned. and the church--this way,
- 00:14:43.201 --> 00:14:44.268
- And the church--this way, god is throwing a great feast.
- 00:14:44.335 --> 00:14:45.703
- God is throwing a great feast. can you hear the sound of music
- 00:14:45.770 --> 00:14:47.105
- Can you hear the sound of music and dancing?
- 00:14:47.171 --> 00:14:48.339
- And dancing? praise the lord.
- 00:14:48.406 --> 00:14:49.173
- Praise the lord. god is throwing a great feast,
- 00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:50.708
- God is throwing a great feast, and all over the world, the body
- 00:14:50.775 --> 00:14:52.377
- And all over the world, the body of christ is realizing grace,
- 00:14:52.443 --> 00:14:54.278
- Of christ is realizing grace, amen.
- 00:14:54.345 --> 00:14:55.046
- Amen. it's a grace generation, amen.
- 00:14:55.113 --> 00:14:56.981
- It's a grace generation, amen. it's what i call
- 00:14:57.048 --> 00:14:57.849
- It's what i call the benjamin generation.
- 00:14:57.915 --> 00:14:59.817
- The benjamin generation. and for that, i just want to
- 00:14:59.884 --> 00:15:00.952
- And for that, i just want to call your attention to the fact
- 00:15:01.019 --> 00:15:02.653
- Call your attention to the fact that the bible, of all the
- 00:15:02.720 --> 00:15:05.156
- That the bible, of all the characters in the bible,
- 00:15:05.223 --> 00:15:06.190
- Characters in the bible, the one that typified christ
- 00:15:06.257 --> 00:15:07.825
- The one that typified christ the most, amen, in its details
- 00:15:07.892 --> 00:15:11.095
- The most, amen, in its details is actually the person of joseph
- 00:15:11.162 --> 00:15:13.598
- Is actually the person of joseph in the book of genesis, amen.
- 00:15:13.664 --> 00:15:15.199
- In the book of genesis, amen. of course, we will see christ
- 00:15:15.266 --> 00:15:16.667
- Of course, we will see christ in the life of david.
- 00:15:16.734 --> 00:15:17.869
- In the life of david. we see christ in the life
- 00:15:17.935 --> 00:15:19.037
- We see christ in the life of moses.
- 00:15:19.103 --> 00:15:20.304
- Of moses. we see christ in the life of
- 00:15:20.371 --> 00:15:22.240
- We see christ in the life of isaiah, even elijah and elisha.
- 00:15:22.306 --> 00:15:25.376
- Isaiah, even elijah and elisha. but joseph typifies christ
- 00:15:25.443 --> 00:15:28.012
- But joseph typifies christ more than any of them, okay.
- 00:15:28.079 --> 00:15:30.014
- More than any of them, okay. now you look at joseph,
- 00:15:30.081 --> 00:15:31.749
- Now you look at joseph, he was loved by the father.
- 00:15:31.816 --> 00:15:34.185
- He was loved by the father. so is our heavenly father.
- 00:15:34.252 --> 00:15:37.488
- So is our heavenly father. he loved jesus, amen.
- 00:15:37.555 --> 00:15:40.658
- He loved jesus, amen. joseph was loved by the father
- 00:15:40.725 --> 00:15:42.360
- Joseph was loved by the father but rejected by his brothers.
- 00:15:42.427 --> 00:15:44.095
- But rejected by his brothers. now who were jesus's
- 00:15:44.162 --> 00:15:45.963
- Now who were jesus's earthly brothers?
- 00:15:46.030 --> 00:15:47.965
- The people of israel, amen.
- 00:15:48.032 --> 00:15:49.700
- And the birth of our lord jesus,
- 00:15:49.767 --> 00:15:51.536
- He came into israel.
- 00:15:51.602 --> 00:15:53.171
- When the fullness of time came,
- 00:15:53.237 --> 00:15:55.706
- God brought forth his son, made
- 00:15:55.773 --> 00:15:58.076
- God brought forth his son, made of a woman, made under the law,
- 00:15:58.142 --> 00:16:00.211
- Of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them
- 00:16:00.278 --> 00:16:01.245
- To redeem them that were under the law,
- 00:16:01.312 --> 00:16:02.780
- That were under the law, that we might receive sonship.
- 00:16:02.847 --> 00:16:04.215
- That we might receive sonship. so god sent his son, amen.
- 00:16:04.282 --> 00:16:05.850
- So god sent his son, amen. so the son always existed
- 00:16:05.917 --> 00:16:07.251
- So the son always existed with the father, amen?
- 00:16:07.318 --> 00:16:09.020
- With the father, amen? and they are one, but at
- 00:16:09.087 --> 00:16:10.455
- And they are one, but at the right time, the fullness
- 00:16:10.521 --> 00:16:11.522
- The right time, the fullness of time, the bible says,
- 00:16:11.589 --> 00:16:12.557
- Of time, the bible says, god sent his son, okay.
- 00:16:12.623 --> 00:16:15.326
- God sent his son, okay. so, his son came.
- 00:16:15.393 --> 00:16:16.828
- So, his son came. and the bible says
- 00:16:16.894 --> 00:16:18.596
- And the bible says that "jesus came to his own
- 00:16:18.663 --> 00:16:20.798
- That "jesus came to his own and his own received him not."
- 00:16:20.865 --> 00:16:24.068
- And his own received him not." amen.
- 00:16:24.135 --> 00:16:24.969
- Amen. so collectively,
- 00:16:25.036 --> 00:16:25.903
- So collectively, israel did not receive him.
- 00:16:25.970 --> 00:16:26.938
- Israel did not receive him. yes, there are those
- 00:16:27.004 --> 00:16:27.638
- Yes, there are those who receive him.
- 00:16:27.705 --> 00:16:28.439
- Who receive him. it goes on to say,
- 00:16:28.506 --> 00:16:29.107
- It goes on to say, "but as many as received him,
- 00:16:29.173 --> 00:16:30.775
- "but as many as received him, to them gave he power
- 00:16:30.842 --> 00:16:32.376
- To them gave he power to become the sons of god."
- 00:16:32.443 --> 00:16:34.679
- To become the sons of god." amen.
- 00:16:34.745 --> 00:16:35.379
- Amen. that's you and i as well.
- 00:16:35.446 --> 00:16:36.214
- That's you and i as well. praise god.
- 00:16:36.280 --> 00:16:37.115
- Praise god. but collectively as a nation,
- 00:16:37.181 --> 00:16:38.483
- But collectively as a nation, they rejected him, all right,
- 00:16:38.549 --> 00:16:40.284
- They rejected him, all right, in their leadership,
- 00:16:40.351 --> 00:16:41.552
- In their leadership, they rejected him.
- 00:16:41.619 --> 00:16:42.920
- They rejected him. and jesus with tears said,
- 00:16:42.987 --> 00:16:45.056
- And jesus with tears said, "oh jerusalem, jerusalem,
- 00:16:45.123 --> 00:16:46.791
- "oh jerusalem, jerusalem, how i wish i would have
- 00:16:46.858 --> 00:16:47.758
- How i wish i would have gathered you."
- 00:16:47.825 --> 00:16:48.826
- Gathered you." and that reminds me of the tears
- 00:16:48.893 --> 00:16:49.827
- And that reminds me of the tears of joseph over his brothers
- 00:16:49.894 --> 00:16:51.462
- Of joseph over his brothers as well.
- 00:16:51.529 --> 00:16:52.463
- As well. and let's go back to the story
- 00:16:52.530 --> 00:16:53.998
- And let's go back to the story of joseph once again.
- 00:16:54.065 --> 00:16:55.099
- Of joseph once again. so he's loved by the father
- 00:16:55.166 --> 00:16:56.234
- So he's loved by the father but rejected by his brothers,
- 00:16:56.300 --> 00:16:58.436
- But rejected by his brothers, and he was sold
- 00:16:58.503 --> 00:16:59.837
- And he was sold for 20 pieces of silver.
- 00:16:59.904 --> 00:17:03.808
- For 20 pieces of silver. jesus was betrayed
- 00:17:03.875 --> 00:17:05.743
- Jesus was betrayed for 30 pieces of silver.
- 00:17:05.810 --> 00:17:09.881
- For 30 pieces of silver. think of it.
- 00:17:09.947 --> 00:17:11.015
- Think of it. see, the story is so similar,
- 00:17:11.082 --> 00:17:15.119
- See, the story is so similar, amen, because god, you know,
- 00:17:15.186 --> 00:17:17.688
- Amen, because god, you know, god hides his son's story.
- 00:17:17.755 --> 00:17:19.590
- God hides his son's story. the story of his son,
- 00:17:19.657 --> 00:17:20.458
- The story of his son, it's all about his son, amen?
- 00:17:20.525 --> 00:17:22.393
- It's all about his son, amen? you know, if i come to your
- 00:17:22.460 --> 00:17:23.394
- You know, if i come to your house, and you start showing me
- 00:17:23.461 --> 00:17:26.063
- House, and you start showing me all your photo albums, okay, of
- 00:17:26.130 --> 00:17:28.499
- All your photo albums, okay, of all your son when he was young,
- 00:17:28.566 --> 00:17:30.368
- All your son when he was young, and your children,
- 00:17:30.434 --> 00:17:32.904
- And your children, your daughter,
- 00:17:32.970 --> 00:17:33.771
- Your daughter, and, you know, all your life
- 00:17:33.838 --> 00:17:35.606
- And, you know, all your life and your holidays and all that.
- 00:17:35.673 --> 00:17:37.074
- And your holidays and all that. and i sort of like
- 00:17:37.141 --> 00:17:38.009
- And i sort of like look far away.
- 00:17:38.075 --> 00:17:39.110
- Look far away. i'm not interested in all that.
- 00:17:39.177 --> 00:17:40.311
- I'm not interested in all that. very soon, you will know
- 00:17:40.378 --> 00:17:41.879
- Very soon, you will know to close the book, amen, why?
- 00:17:41.946 --> 00:17:44.182
- To close the book, amen, why? because i'm not interested.
- 00:17:44.248 --> 00:17:45.716
- Because i'm not interested. so the bible is nothing more
- 00:17:45.783 --> 00:17:46.817
- So the bible is nothing more than god's photo album
- 00:17:46.884 --> 00:17:48.519
- Than god's photo album of his son, amen.
- 00:17:48.586 --> 00:17:50.488
- Of his son, amen. as we look at it with
- 00:17:50.555 --> 00:17:52.323
- As we look at it with great interest, and delight,
- 00:17:52.390 --> 00:17:54.258
- Great interest, and delight, and asking god, "holy spirit,
- 00:17:54.325 --> 00:17:55.993
- And asking god, "holy spirit, open my eyes to behold jesus
- 00:17:56.060 --> 00:17:57.862
- Open my eyes to behold jesus in your word."
- 00:17:57.929 --> 00:17:58.863
- In your word." you know, god will open more
- 00:17:58.930 --> 00:18:00.198
- You know, god will open more and more.
- 00:18:00.264 --> 00:18:00.932
- And more. god will open more
- 00:18:00.998 --> 00:18:01.532
- God will open more and more to you, amen.
- 00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:02.633
- And more to you, amen. praise the lord.
- 00:18:02.700 --> 00:18:03.467
- Praise the lord. so joseph was sold for 20 pieces
- 00:18:03.534 --> 00:18:06.003
- So joseph was sold for 20 pieces of silver, jesus was betrayed,
- 00:18:06.070 --> 00:18:07.838
- Of silver, jesus was betrayed, or sold for 30 pieces of silver,
- 00:18:07.905 --> 00:18:10.575
- Or sold for 30 pieces of silver, and even though his brothers
- 00:18:10.641 --> 00:18:12.777
- And even though his brothers rejected him,
- 00:18:12.843 --> 00:18:13.811
- Rejected him, joseph became the bread of life
- 00:18:13.878 --> 00:18:16.814
- Joseph became the bread of life to the egyptian world,
- 00:18:16.881 --> 00:18:18.816
- To the gentiles, so to speak,
- 00:18:18.883 --> 00:18:21.319
- Amen, ready to feed the world.
- 00:18:21.385 --> 00:18:24.055
- Do you remember that the
- 00:18:24.121 --> 00:18:26.023
- Brothers of joseph, they were
- 00:18:26.090 --> 00:18:27.525
- Born of slave girls, bondwomen,
- 00:18:27.592 --> 00:18:31.128
- All right?
- 00:18:31.195 --> 00:18:31.796
- All right? like bilhah, zilpah,
- 00:18:31.862 --> 00:18:34.398
- Like bilhah, zilpah, and all the rest, except
- 00:18:34.465 --> 00:18:35.700
- And all the rest, except that jacob had two legal wives.
- 00:18:35.766 --> 00:18:39.503
- That jacob had two legal wives. leah, the first one, and rachel.
- 00:18:39.570 --> 00:18:43.507
- Leah, the first one, and rachel. now rachel's name means lamb.
- 00:18:43.574 --> 00:18:46.043
- Now rachel's name means lamb. so she's a picture of sarah,
- 00:18:46.110 --> 00:18:48.512
- So she's a picture of sarah, the new covenant, grace, amen.
- 00:18:48.579 --> 00:18:50.948
- The new covenant, grace, amen. leah came first, like the law
- 00:18:51.015 --> 00:18:52.650
- Leah came first, like the law came first before grace,
- 00:18:52.717 --> 00:18:54.285
- Came first before grace, because man needs to know
- 00:18:54.352 --> 00:18:55.553
- Because man needs to know that he cannot to see his need
- 00:18:55.620 --> 00:18:57.555
- That he cannot to see his need for the savior.
- 00:18:57.622 --> 00:18:59.023
- For the savior. god didn't bring grace first,
- 00:18:59.090 --> 00:19:00.157
- God didn't bring grace first, god brought the law first.
- 00:19:00.224 --> 00:19:01.626
- God brought the law first. the law came by a servant,
- 00:19:01.692 --> 00:19:03.160
- The law came by a servant, but grace and truth came
- 00:19:03.227 --> 00:19:04.428
- But grace and truth came by jesus christ, the son.
- 00:19:04.495 --> 00:19:06.631
- By jesus christ, the son. okay, so leah came first,
- 00:19:06.697 --> 00:19:09.467
- Okay, so leah came first, jacob married her first,
- 00:19:09.533 --> 00:19:10.801
- Jacob married her first, and, for leah,
- 00:19:10.868 --> 00:19:12.903
- And, for leah, a picture of the law, the rest
- 00:19:12.970 --> 00:19:15.039
- A picture of the law, the rest of the children actually
- 00:19:15.106 --> 00:19:16.474
- Of the children actually came from slave women,
- 00:19:16.540 --> 00:19:19.443
- Came from slave women, bondwomen, okay?
- 00:19:19.510 --> 00:19:21.379
- Bondwomen, okay? and all of them, that makes up
- 00:19:21.445 --> 00:19:23.414
- And all of them, that makes up the ten tribes of israel.
- 00:19:23.481 --> 00:19:26.851
- The ten tribes of israel. the two tribes,
- 00:19:26.917 --> 00:19:27.652
- The two tribes, there are 12 tribes of israel,
- 00:19:27.718 --> 00:19:28.653
- There are 12 tribes of israel, i know, but the two
- 00:19:28.719 --> 00:19:30.021
- I know, but the two are actually joseph
- 00:19:30.087 --> 00:19:31.756
- Are actually joseph as well as benjamin, okay?
- 00:19:31.822 --> 00:19:34.825
- As well as benjamin, okay? so who is joseph again?
- 00:19:34.892 --> 00:19:36.160
- So who is joseph again? our lord jesus, amen.
- 00:19:36.227 --> 00:19:38.496
- Our lord jesus, amen. and he shares the same mother
- 00:19:38.562 --> 00:19:40.498
- And he shares the same mother as benjamin.
- 00:19:40.564 --> 00:19:41.399
- As benjamin. who is benjamin?
- 00:19:41.465 --> 00:19:42.500
- Who is benjamin? that's the question.
- 00:19:42.566 --> 00:19:43.134
- That's the question. who is benjamin?
- 00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:44.502
- Who is benjamin? because whoever benjamin is,
- 00:19:44.568 --> 00:19:46.070
- Because whoever benjamin is, he shares the same mother,
- 00:19:46.137 --> 00:19:47.204
- He shares the same mother, not just the same father.
- 00:19:47.271 --> 00:19:48.205
- Not just the same father. in fact, all those born that
- 00:19:48.272 --> 00:19:49.907
- In fact, all those born that make up the 12 tribes of israel,
- 00:19:49.974 --> 00:19:52.576
- Make up the 12 tribes of israel, they were all born
- 00:19:52.643 --> 00:19:53.978
- They were all born of the same father, jacob.
- 00:19:54.045 --> 00:19:56.414
- Of the same father, jacob. in other words, they have the
- 00:19:56.480 --> 00:19:57.748
- In other words, they have the same father, just like isaac and
- 00:19:57.815 --> 00:19:59.350
- Same father, just like isaac and ishmael's story all over again.
- 00:19:59.417 --> 00:20:01.719
- Ishmael's story all over again. okay, they share the same father
- 00:20:01.786 --> 00:20:03.020
- Okay, they share the same father but not the same mother.
- 00:20:03.087 --> 00:20:04.422
- But not the same mother. their mother is a bondwoman.
- 00:20:04.488 --> 00:20:07.124
- Their mother is a bondwoman. okay, their mother is a picture
- 00:20:07.191 --> 00:20:08.893
- Okay, their mother is a picture of the law.
- 00:20:08.959 --> 00:20:09.627
- Of the law. leah, or the bondwomen,
- 00:20:09.694 --> 00:20:12.196
- Leah, or the bondwomen, that brought forth all the
- 00:20:12.263 --> 00:20:16.133
- That brought forth all the other sons, the ten sons.
- 00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:18.135
- Other sons, the ten sons. notice ten, the number below.
- 00:20:18.202 --> 00:20:19.970
- Notice ten, the number below. the other two sons are joseph
- 00:20:20.037 --> 00:20:21.439
- The other two sons are joseph and benjamin, amen.
- 00:20:21.505 --> 00:20:25.376
- And benjamin, amen. so only joseph and benjamin was
- 00:20:25.443 --> 00:20:27.178
- So only joseph and benjamin was born from the lamb, because
- 00:20:27.244 --> 00:20:30.147
- Born from the lamb, because rachel's name means lamb, amen.
- 00:20:30.214 --> 00:20:32.450
- Rachel's name means lamb, amen. and we need to establish
- 00:20:32.516 --> 00:20:34.452
- And we need to establish who is benjamin, all right,
- 00:20:34.518 --> 00:20:36.220
- Who is benjamin, all right, because in the scriptures,
- 00:20:36.287 --> 00:20:37.388
- Because in the scriptures, the bible says
- 00:20:37.455 --> 00:20:38.122
- The bible says he's the most favored
- 00:20:38.189 --> 00:20:39.090
- He's the most favored of them all.
- 00:20:39.156 --> 00:20:40.124
- Of them all. he's the most loved
- 00:20:40.191 --> 00:20:41.292
- He's the most loved by the father,
- 00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:42.526
- By the father, and the most loved by joseph,
- 00:20:42.593 --> 00:20:46.397
- And the most loved by joseph, by the heavenly joseph,
- 00:20:46.464 --> 00:20:47.598
- By the heavenly joseph, our lord jesus as well.
- 00:20:47.665 --> 00:20:49.567
- Our lord jesus as well. and when did benjamin
- 00:20:49.633 --> 00:20:51.268
- And when did benjamin make his appearance?
- 00:20:51.335 --> 00:20:53.337
- Make his appearance? during the time of famine.
- 00:20:53.404 --> 00:20:54.739
- During the time of famine. look at genesis 41, "so when all
- 00:20:54.805 --> 00:20:57.608
- The land of egypt was famished,
- 00:20:57.675 --> 00:21:00.044
- The land of egypt was famished, the people cried to pharaoh
- 00:21:00.111 --> 00:21:01.612
- The people cried to pharaoh for bread.
- 00:21:01.679 --> 00:21:02.747
- For bread. then pharaoh said to all the
- 00:21:02.813 --> 00:21:03.948
- Then pharaoh said to all the egyptians, 'go to joseph;
- 00:21:04.014 --> 00:21:06.183
- Egyptians, 'go to joseph; whatever he says to you, do.'"
- 00:21:06.250 --> 00:21:09.854
- Whatever he says to you, do.'" whatever he says to you, do.
- 00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:13.057
- Whatever he says to you, do. just like mary said
- 00:21:13.124 --> 00:21:15.025
- At the wedding of cana,
- 00:21:15.226 --> 00:21:17.228
- At the wedding of cana, when they ran out of wine,
- 00:21:17.294 --> 00:21:19.230
- When they ran out of wine, she said to all the servants,
- 00:21:19.296 --> 00:21:20.498
- She said to all the servants, "whatever jesus says to you,
- 00:21:20.564 --> 00:21:22.600
- "whatever jesus says to you, do it!"
- 00:21:22.666 --> 00:21:23.701
- Do it!" and friend, the water
- 00:21:23.768 --> 00:21:24.735
- And friend, the water will turn to wine.
- 00:21:24.802 --> 00:21:26.303
- Will turn to wine. sight will come to the blind.
- 00:21:26.370 --> 00:21:28.506
- Sight will come to the blind. amen.
- 00:21:28.572 --> 00:21:29.473
- Amen. you know friend, it was when
- 00:21:29.540 --> 00:21:31.542
- You know friend, it was when benjamin came before him,
- 00:21:31.609 --> 00:21:33.411
- Benjamin came before him, benjamin was already
- 00:21:33.477 --> 00:21:34.211
- Benjamin was already in existence when joseph
- 00:21:34.278 --> 00:21:35.813
- In existence when joseph was in the palace
- 00:21:35.880 --> 00:21:37.481
- Was in the palace in egypt serving, right,
- 00:21:37.548 --> 00:21:40.684
- In egypt serving, right, as a viceroy, the second most
- 00:21:40.751 --> 00:21:42.620
- As a viceroy, the second most powerful man in all egypt.
- 00:21:42.686 --> 00:21:46.690
- Powerful man in all egypt. benjamin was growing up,
- 00:21:46.757 --> 00:21:48.526
- Benjamin was growing up, but yet, nothing happened until
- 00:21:48.592 --> 00:21:52.496
- But yet, nothing happened until benjamin came before joseph.
- 00:21:52.563 --> 00:21:55.733
- Benjamin came before joseph. so i just want to close
- 00:21:55.800 --> 00:21:57.168
- So i just want to close by saying this,
- 00:21:57.234 --> 00:21:58.836
- By saying this, benjamin generation,
- 00:21:58.903 --> 00:22:02.673
- Benjamin generation, he wants you to come close
- 00:22:02.740 --> 00:22:04.175
- He wants you to come close to him, he wants you

- I know you want this blessing, you want this breakthrough,
- 00:22:09.246 --> 00:22:10.080
- You want this breakthrough, and sometimes you come to him
- 00:22:10.147 --> 00:22:10.981
- And sometimes you come to him to get a breakthrough,
- 00:22:11.048 --> 00:22:12.283
- To get a breakthrough, but you know something?
- 00:22:12.349 --> 00:22:13.050
- But you know something? he just wants you to come
- 00:22:13.117 --> 00:22:13.984
- He just wants you to come and see him, and to know
- 00:22:14.051 --> 00:22:16.554
- And see him, and to know that he has only grace for you,
- 00:22:16.620 --> 00:22:19.156
- That he has only grace for you, five times more for you.
- 00:22:19.223 --> 00:22:20.891
- Five times more for you. he only has gracious words
- 00:22:20.958 --> 00:22:22.726

- Will you enjoy that love in his presence?
- 00:22:30.434 --> 00:22:31.569
- In his presence? it was when benjamin came to
- 00:22:31.635 --> 00:22:34.038
- It was when benjamin came to joseph that things began to turn
- 00:22:34.104 --> 00:22:36.307
- Joseph that things began to turn around, even for israel, amen.
- 00:22:36.373 --> 00:22:38.843
- Around, even for israel, amen. even for the nation of israel
- 00:22:38.909 --> 00:22:39.944
- Even for the nation of israel represented by the brothers,
- 00:22:40.010 --> 00:22:41.245
- Represented by the brothers, as well as today, those brothers
- 00:22:41.312 --> 00:22:43.314
- As well as today, those brothers that don't believe in grace,
- 00:22:43.380 --> 00:22:45.049
- That don't believe in grace, amen, having the same father
- 00:22:45.115 --> 00:22:46.851
