  • Why? what did he do
  • 00:06:58.731 --> 00:07:00.066
  • What did he do that was so horrible?
  • 00:07:00.132 --> 00:07:02.368
  • That was so horrible? did he murder
  • 00:07:02.435 --> 00:07:03.369
  • Did he murder masses of people?
  • 00:07:03.436 --> 00:07:07.507
  • Masses of people? no, his sin was pride,
  • 00:07:07.573 --> 00:07:11.377
  • No, his sin was pride, self-exaltation
  • 00:07:11.444 --> 00:07:12.745
  • Self-exaltation and rebellion,
  • 00:07:12.812 --> 00:07:13.646
  • And rebellion, that's the inwards sin.
  • 00:07:13.713 --> 00:07:14.914
  • That's the inwards sin. but notice this,
  • 00:07:14.981 --> 00:07:15.581
  • But notice this, the outward manifestation
  • 00:07:15.648 --> 00:07:17.717
  • The outward manifestation of inward pride
  • 00:07:17.783 --> 00:07:18.885
  • Of inward pride and self-exaltation was
  • 00:07:18.951 --> 00:07:20.953
  • And self-exaltation was the refusal to worship.
  • 00:07:21.020 --> 00:07:24.824
  • The refusal to worship. see, worship is not

  • The more you have going on on the inside,
  • 00:07:39.405 --> 00:07:41.340
  • Going on on the inside, the more your outside wants
  • 00:07:41.407 --> 00:07:43.609
  • The more your outside wants to express what you feel.

  • Went with him, they're now demonic powers.
  • 00:07:54.353 --> 00:07:56.923
  • They're now demonic powers. but some of them,
  • 00:07:56.989 --> 00:07:57.957

  • The second thing it said, the bible said,
  • 00:09:37.323 --> 00:09:37.990
  • The bible said, “and they were
  • 00:09:38.057 --> 00:09:38.624
  • “and they were bound with chains.”
  • 00:09:38.691 --> 00:09:40.993
  • Bound with chains.” you get down,
  • 00:09:41.060 --> 00:09:42.762
  • You get down, and the next part
  • 00:09:42.828 --> 00:09:43.696
  • And the next part of that verse said,
  • 00:09:43.763 --> 00:09:44.397

  • They get down, because everybody goes
  • 00:10:00.413 --> 00:10:01.514
  • Because everybody goes through seasons of attack,
  • 00:10:01.580 --> 00:10:03.416
  • Through seasons of attack, and if you don't learn
  • 00:10:03.482 --> 00:10:04.116
  • And if you don't learn how to praise the lord,
  • 00:10:04.183 --> 00:10:04.984
