- 00:10:22.334 --> 00:10:23.536
- If jesus fell beneath the weight of his cross,
- 00:10:23.602 --> 00:10:25.037
- The weight of his cross, it tells me i don't
- 00:10:25.104 --> 00:10:26.372
- It tells me i don't have to be strong
- 00:10:26.439 --> 00:10:27.606
- Have to be strong 100% of the time.
- 00:10:27.673 --> 00:10:31.110
- 100% of the time. but that god will have
- 00:10:31.177 --> 00:10:32.278
- But that god will have people in our lives.
- 00:10:32.344 --> 00:10:33.646
- People in our lives. you need a church,
- 00:10:33.713 --> 00:10:34.480
- You need a church, you need people
- 00:10:34.547 --> 00:10:35.915
- You need people that when you come in
- 00:10:35.981 --> 00:10:37.450
- That when you come in and you're weak and you're
- 00:10:37.516 --> 00:10:38.217
- And you're weak and you're about to collapse under
- 00:10:38.284 --> 00:10:39.719
- About to collapse under the weight of whatever
- 00:10:39.785 --> 00:10:41.287
- The weight of whatever it is you're dealing with,
- 00:10:41.353 --> 00:10:43.189
- It is you're dealing with, just like what we're
- 00:10:43.255 --> 00:10:43.689
- Just like what we're feeling in this service,
- 00:10:43.756 --> 00:10:45.057
- Feeling in this service, there is a presence that
- 00:10:45.124 --> 00:10:47.126
- There is a presence that can come up under you
- 00:10:47.193 --> 00:10:48.861
- Can come up under you and the cross
- 00:10:48.928 --> 00:10:49.462
- And the cross you're bearing and say,
- 00:10:49.528 --> 00:10:50.830
- You're bearing and say, "i know you can't go another
- 00:10:50.896 --> 00:10:52.932
- "i know you can't go another step in your own strength,
- 00:10:52.998 --> 00:10:54.700
- Step in your own strength, but there's power in the blood
- 00:10:54.767 --> 00:10:57.336
- But there's power in the blood and it will give you
- 00:10:57.403 --> 00:10:58.104
- And it will give you strength to go from day.
- 00:10:58.170 --> 00:11:00.606
- Strength to go from day. strength to take up this cross
- 00:11:00.673 --> 00:11:02.575
- Strength to take up this cross if god doesn't remove it."
- 00:11:02.641 --> 00:11:04.143
- If god doesn't remove it." i'll bear it by his grace.
- 00:11:04.210 --> 00:11:08.914
- I'll bear it by his grace. jesus, the god man could not die
- 00:11:08.981 --> 00:11:12.685
- Jesus, the god man could not die until two things happened.
- 00:11:12.752 --> 00:11:15.755
- Until two things happened. he had to quit speaking.
- 00:11:15.821 --> 00:11:18.457
- He had to quit speaking. the bible said his words were
- 00:11:18.524 --> 00:11:20.426
- The bible said his words were spirit and they were life.
- 00:11:20.493 --> 00:11:22.895
- Spirit and they were life. when jesus was speaking,
- 00:11:22.962 --> 00:11:23.963
- When jesus was speaking, it was the words
- 00:11:24.029 --> 00:11:25.664
- It was the words of god almighty.
- 00:11:25.731 --> 00:11:28.000
- Of god almighty. and it's impossible for death
- 00:11:28.067 --> 00:11:30.770
- And it's impossible for death to invade him as long as
- 00:11:30.836 --> 00:11:33.139
- To invade him as long as he was speaking.
- 00:11:33.205 --> 00:11:34.774
- He was speaking. he could not die, secondly,
- 00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:39.211
- He could not die, secondly, as long as the presence
- 00:11:39.278 --> 00:11:42.848
- As long as the presence was upon him.
- 00:11:42.915 --> 00:11:44.850
- Was upon him. the presence
- 00:11:44.917 --> 00:11:46.619
- The presence of the holy spirit.
- 00:11:46.685 --> 00:11:49.355
- Of the holy spirit. when the eternal spirit lifted,
- 00:11:49.421 --> 00:11:51.590
- When the eternal spirit lifted, when god almighty lifted,
- 00:11:51.657 --> 00:11:56.996
- When god almighty lifted, and in that moment,
- 00:11:57.062 --> 00:11:58.330
- And in that moment, he gave up the ghost.
- 00:11:58.397 --> 00:12:03.135
- He gave up the ghost. "why hast thou forsaken me?"
- 00:12:03.202 --> 00:12:05.004
- "why hast thou forsaken me?" he didn't say,
- 00:12:05.070 --> 00:12:07.173
- He didn't say, "why am i bleeding?
- 00:12:07.239 --> 00:12:08.174
- "why am i bleeding? why am i suffering?"
- 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:10.142
- Why am i suffering?" but his concern was,
- 00:12:10.209 --> 00:12:11.577
- But his concern was, "why i've never
- 00:12:11.644 --> 00:12:14.013
- "why i've never had this feeling that
- 00:12:14.079 --> 00:12:15.314
- Had this feeling that the presence has left me?
- 00:12:15.381 --> 00:12:18.684
- The presence has left me? i don't feel
- 00:12:18.751 --> 00:12:19.218
- I don't feel the presence anymore."
- 00:12:19.285 --> 00:12:22.688
- The presence anymore." when the presence lifted
- 00:12:22.755 --> 00:12:23.989
- When the presence lifted and when the words
- 00:12:24.056 --> 00:12:25.224
- And when the words of his mouth ceased, he died.
- 00:12:25.291 --> 00:12:28.794
- Of his mouth ceased, he died. there's a clue in this that
- 00:12:28.861 --> 00:12:29.895
- There's a clue in this that we need to pick up on.
- 00:12:29.962 --> 00:12:31.931
- We need to pick up on. as long as we are confessing
- 00:12:31.997 --> 00:12:33.999
- As long as we are confessing god's word and god's word
- 00:12:34.066 --> 00:12:36.368
- God's word and god's word is active in our life,
- 00:12:36.435 --> 00:12:37.903
- Is active in our life, and as long as
- 00:12:37.970 --> 00:12:39.271
- And as long as we are in his presence
- 00:12:39.338 --> 00:12:41.307
- We are in his presence and being with him,
- 00:12:41.373 --> 00:12:43.976
- And being with him, we cannot die spiritually.
- 00:12:44.043 --> 00:12:47.780
- We cannot die spiritually. the key to life is to keep
- 00:12:47.847 --> 00:12:49.748
- The key to life is to keep speaking the word
- 00:12:49.815 --> 00:12:51.450
- Speaking the word and having the word active
- 00:12:51.517 --> 00:12:53.285
- And having the word active and getting in his presence,
- 00:12:53.352 --> 00:12:55.287
- And getting in his presence, and loving his presence,
- 00:12:55.354 --> 00:12:57.289
- And loving his presence, and worshiping him and being
- 00:12:57.356 --> 00:12:59.859
- And worshiping him and being in that place with him
- 00:12:59.925 --> 00:13:01.460
- In that place with him because his presence
- 00:13:01.527 --> 00:13:02.995
- Because his presence gives life to your soul
- 00:13:03.062 --> 00:13:05.497
- Gives life to your soul and to your spirit.
- 00:13:05.564 --> 00:13:07.366
- And to your spirit. speak the word.
- 00:13:07.433 --> 00:13:10.870
- Speak the word. as long as this church,
- 00:13:10.936 --> 00:13:17.309
- As long as this church, if the word is preached
- 00:13:17.376 --> 00:13:18.978
- If the word is preached and the presence is here,
- 00:13:19.044 --> 00:13:21.614
- And the presence is here, it will not die.
- 00:13:21.680 --> 00:13:23.716
- It will not die. it has not died
- 00:13:23.782 --> 00:13:25.517
- It has not died for all these decades.
- 00:13:25.584 --> 00:13:28.721
- For all these decades. and this church never
- 00:13:28.787 --> 00:13:30.189
- And this church never has to die.
- 00:13:30.256 --> 00:13:31.824
- Has to die. hallelujah.
- 00:13:31.891 --> 00:13:33.025
- Hallelujah. because if we preach the word.
- 00:13:33.092 --> 00:13:34.994
- Because if we preach the word. but the word is not enough
- 00:13:35.060 --> 00:13:36.362
- But the word is not enough by itself.
- 00:13:36.428 --> 00:13:37.563
- By itself. what do you mean?
- 00:13:37.630 --> 00:13:38.831
- What do you mean? there is a difference between --
- 00:13:38.898 --> 00:13:41.433
- There is a difference between -- the bible said,
- 00:13:41.500 --> 00:13:42.434
- The bible said, this is a bible verse,
- 00:13:42.501 --> 00:13:43.702
- This is a bible verse, "the letter killeth."
- 00:13:43.769 --> 00:13:46.171
- "the letter killeth." if all you have
- 00:13:46.238 --> 00:13:47.339
- If all you have over and over and over
- 00:13:47.406 --> 00:13:49.241
- Over and over and over is a steady diet of just
- 00:13:49.308 --> 00:13:51.877
- Is a steady diet of just hearing scriptures mumbled,
- 00:13:51.944 --> 00:13:55.714
- Hearing scriptures mumbled, and there's no anointing on it,
- 00:13:55.781 --> 00:13:57.349
- And there's no anointing on it, but when you put
- 00:13:57.416 --> 00:13:58.150
- But when you put his presence with the word,
- 00:13:58.217 --> 00:14:01.921
- His presence with the word, if you have singing,
- 00:14:01.987 --> 00:14:03.555
- If you have singing, and they're singing good words,
- 00:14:03.622 --> 00:14:06.358
- And they're singing good words, but you don't feel his presence,
- 00:14:06.425 --> 00:14:08.294
- But you don't feel his presence, there's no life in it.
- 00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:09.428
- There's no life in it. and that's why all churches
- 00:14:09.495 --> 00:14:11.363
- And that's why all churches are not the same.
- 00:14:11.430 --> 00:14:12.865
- Are not the same. you got to get the presence,
- 00:14:12.932 --> 00:14:14.266
- You got to get the presence, and you got to get the word
- 00:14:14.333 --> 00:14:16.068
- And you got to get the word in everything you're singing,
- 00:14:16.135 --> 00:14:17.703
- In everything you're singing, everything you're preaching.
- 00:14:17.770 --> 00:14:18.837
- Everything you're preaching. and if you get his presence,
- 00:14:18.904 --> 00:14:20.673
- And if you get his presence, it's everything.
- 00:14:20.739 --> 00:14:23.242
- It's everything. it's everything.
- 00:14:23.309 --> 00:14:26.211
- It's everything. and as long as
- 00:14:26.278 --> 00:14:27.246
- And as long as we're confessing the word
- 00:14:27.313 --> 00:14:29.014
- We're confessing the word and activating the word
- 00:14:29.081 --> 00:14:30.482
- And activating the word and preaching the word
- 00:14:30.549 --> 00:14:31.750
- And preaching the word and proclaiming
- 00:14:31.817 --> 00:14:33.052
- And proclaiming the word in song,
- 00:14:33.118 --> 00:14:36.956
- The word in song, and as long as we are
- 00:14:37.022 --> 00:14:38.757
- And as long as we are entering into his presence,
- 00:14:38.824 --> 00:14:40.225
- Entering into his presence, not coming to church,
- 00:14:40.292 --> 00:14:41.860
- Not coming to church, entering into his presence,
- 00:14:41.927 --> 00:14:47.533
- Entering into his presence, the church cannot die.
- 00:14:47.599 --> 00:14:50.536
- The church cannot die. i know in my own life,
- 00:14:50.602 --> 00:14:53.672
- I know in my own life, as long as
- 00:14:53.739 --> 00:14:54.306
- As long as i'm activating the word,
- 00:14:54.373 --> 00:14:57.509
- I'm activating the word, when i feel myself getting dry,
- 00:14:57.576 --> 00:14:59.511
- When i feel myself getting dry, activate the word and get in
- 00:14:59.578 --> 00:15:01.714
- Activate the word and get in his presence and life comes.
- 00:15:01.780 --> 00:15:06.652
- It's an amazing thing.
- 00:15:06.752 --> 00:15:08.921
- It's an amazing thing. we've got to keep confessing.
- 00:15:08.988 --> 00:15:11.991
- We've got to keep confessing. don't ever lose the presence.
- 00:15:12.057 --> 00:15:18.130
- Jesus was stripped naked
- 00:15:18.230 --> 00:15:21.266
- Jesus was stripped naked on the cross.
- 00:15:21.333 --> 00:15:23.135
- On the cross. there was no loincloth.
- 00:15:23.202 --> 00:15:25.270
- There was no loincloth. it's not biblical.
- 00:15:25.337 --> 00:15:27.573
- It's not biblical. they stripped him
- 00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:28.707
- They stripped him completely in shame,
- 00:15:28.774 --> 00:15:31.343
- Completely in shame, and dishonor and disgrace.
- 00:15:31.410 --> 00:15:34.146
- And dishonor and disgrace. they stripped the second adam --
- 00:15:34.213 --> 00:15:36.015
- They stripped the second adam -- the first adam in the garden
- 00:15:36.081 --> 00:15:37.916
- The first adam in the garden violated god's rule.
- 00:15:37.983 --> 00:15:40.686
- Violated god's rule. and he hid from
- 00:15:40.753 --> 00:15:41.587
- And he hid from the presence of god.
- 00:15:41.653 --> 00:15:43.922
- The presence of god. he hid from the presence of god
- 00:15:43.989 --> 00:15:46.625
- He hid from the presence of god because the presence of god
- 00:15:46.692 --> 00:15:48.861
- Because the presence of god exposes sin.
- 00:15:48.927 --> 00:15:51.497
- Exposes sin. that's why we've got
- 00:15:51.563 --> 00:15:52.431
- That's why we've got to have the presence of god
- 00:15:52.498 --> 00:15:54.133
- To have the presence of god in services like this.
- 00:15:54.199 --> 00:15:56.435
- In services like this. because church is not just
- 00:15:56.502 --> 00:15:57.770
- Because church is not just about thrilling you.
- 00:15:57.836 --> 00:16:00.472
- About thrilling you. church is about you getting
- 00:16:00.539 --> 00:16:02.508
- Church is about you getting into the presence of god
- 00:16:02.574 --> 00:16:03.842
- Into the presence of god so deeply that it exposes sin
- 00:16:03.909 --> 00:16:08.514
- So deeply that it exposes sin in your life that needs to be
- 00:16:08.580 --> 00:16:10.682
- In your life that needs to be repented of and forsaken.
- 00:16:10.749 --> 00:16:15.754
- Repented of and forsaken. you see, not only does
- 00:16:15.821 --> 00:16:17.122
- You see, not only does the presence of god
- 00:16:17.189 --> 00:16:18.424
- The presence of god preserve life,
- 00:16:18.490 --> 00:16:20.626
- Preserve life, but it exposes sin.
- 00:16:20.692 --> 00:16:23.228
- But it exposes sin. that's why when god
- 00:16:23.295 --> 00:16:25.564
- That's why when god came into the garden
- 00:16:25.631 --> 00:16:28.634
- Came into the garden and the scripture said,
- 00:16:28.700 --> 00:16:31.070
- And the scripture said, adam said, "i heard your voice."
- 00:16:31.136 --> 00:16:34.973
- Adam said, "i heard your voice." and god said, "where are you?"
- 00:16:35.040 --> 00:16:36.909
- And god said, "where are you?" and he said, "i heard your voice
- 00:16:36.975 --> 00:16:38.811
- And he said, "i heard your voice and i was afraid."
- 00:16:38.877 --> 00:16:42.781
- And i was afraid." you see, i believe adam was
- 00:16:42.848 --> 00:16:45.317
- You see, i believe adam was clothed with the glory of god.
- 00:16:45.384 --> 00:16:47.953
- Clothed with the glory of god. how did he know he was naked?
- 00:16:48.020 --> 00:16:50.222
- How did he know he was naked? he said, "and i was naked
- 00:16:50.289 --> 00:16:51.290
- He said, "and i was naked and i was afraid."
- 00:16:51.356 --> 00:16:53.058
- And i was afraid." how did he know he was naked?
- 00:16:53.125 --> 00:16:56.361
- How did he know he was naked? he had to have had
- 00:16:56.428 --> 00:16:57.329
- He had to have had some reference to that.
- 00:16:57.396 --> 00:16:58.464
- Some reference to that. he had never seen anybody else.
- 00:16:58.530 --> 00:17:01.200
- He had never seen anybody else. how did he know that?
