  • 00:00:08.324 --> 00:00:17.067
  • Hey, family.
  • 00:00:17.367 --> 00:00:18.468
  • I bring you greetings from jacksonville, florida.
  • 00:00:18.468 --> 00:00:20.303
  • I am excited about today's broadcast,
  • 00:00:20.303 --> 00:00:23.339
  • And i can't wait to unpack the word that god has given me
  • 00:00:23.339 --> 00:00:26.543
  • For our time together.
  • 00:00:26.543 --> 00:00:27.744
  • We are in john chapter three, and the word of the lord.
  • 00:00:27.744 --> 00:00:30.747
  • For today is you must be born again.
  • 00:00:30.747 --> 00:00:34.250
  • I want you to grab your word,
  • 00:00:34.250 --> 00:00:35.318
  • Grab your notepad, grab your pen, call somebody,
  • 00:00:35.318 --> 00:00:37.620
  • Let them know we're on live right now.
  • 00:00:37.620 --> 00:00:38.922
  • Let's go into the word of god as it has already begun.
  • 00:00:38.922 --> 00:00:41.458
  • And let's be transformed by the renewing of our mind.
  • 00:00:41.458 --> 00:00:44.961
  • Jesus talking to nicodemus.
  • 00:00:45.562 --> 00:00:49.399
  • It's challenging the status quo,
  • 00:00:50.033 --> 00:00:53.203
  • Challenging his perspective, challenging his religious
  • 00:00:53.203 --> 00:00:57.006
  • Beliefs, challenging his rituals and his antics,
  • 00:00:57.006 --> 00:01:01.911
  • Really challenging the core of what he is has done
  • 00:01:01.911 --> 00:01:07.217
  • To in his mind, earn
  • 00:01:07.684 --> 00:01:10.787
  • His place in the kingdom of god.
  • 00:01:10.787 --> 00:01:14.390
  • For nicodemus, hearing those words,
  • 00:01:14.390 --> 00:01:16.893
  • You must be born again.
  • 00:01:16.893 --> 00:01:20.130
  • We're disrespectful because nicodemus thought
  • 00:01:20.130 --> 00:01:23.233
  • That he earned and inherited his place in the kingdom of god
  • 00:01:23.233 --> 00:01:27.570
  • Based upon him being a pharisee
  • 00:01:27.570 --> 00:01:31.274
  • And a teacher of the jews.
  • 00:01:31.274 --> 00:01:34.911
  • See, in this particular context,
  • 00:01:34.911 --> 00:01:36.913
  • In this particular time, jewish identity was everything
  • 00:01:36.913 --> 00:01:41.117
  • The first century jewish world.
  • 00:01:41.751 --> 00:01:44.087
  • They believed being born a jew
  • 00:01:44.087 --> 00:01:46.823
  • Was to be physically born into abraham's lineage.
  • 00:01:46.823 --> 00:01:51.094
  • This was considered to be a interest ticket
  • 00:01:51.094 --> 00:01:54.797
  • Into the kingdom of god, to be born a jew meant to jewish
  • 00:01:54.797 --> 00:02:00.803
  • Pharisees and rabbis and priests,
  • 00:02:00.803 --> 00:02:04.040
  • That you automatically inherited a place in the kingdom of god.
  • 00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:09.012
  • They believe this because of covenant birthright
  • 00:02:09.012 --> 00:02:11.581
  • Being a descendant of abraham
  • 00:02:11.581 --> 00:02:13.850
  • Meant more to them than anything else.
  • 00:02:13.850 --> 00:02:16.853
  • They also believed that because they were strictly
  • 00:02:16.853 --> 00:02:19.923
  • Obedient to the law, that this somehow gave them
  • 00:02:19.923 --> 00:02:23.927
  • The benefit of being a kingdom citizen.
  • 00:02:23.927 --> 00:02:27.397
  • And so jesus telling nicodemus, all that you have done up
  • 00:02:27.397 --> 00:02:31.100
  • Until this point has not earned you a place in the kingdom
  • 00:02:31.100 --> 00:02:34.737
  • Of god, was probably, to nicodemus, disrespectful.
  • 00:02:34.737 --> 00:02:39.409
  • It was disrespectful because nicodemus
  • 00:02:39.409 --> 00:02:41.644
  • Had been taught, and he had taught others,
  • 00:02:41.644 --> 00:02:43.846
  • That the only thing that you had to do
  • 00:02:43.846 --> 00:02:45.949
  • Was practice and keep the law.
  • 00:02:45.949 --> 00:02:48.351
  • If you were just a good person and you were a great person
  • 00:02:48.351 --> 00:02:51.888
  • And you follow all these steps, you would inherit
  • 00:02:51.888 --> 00:02:55.058
  • The kingdom of god.
  • 00:02:55.058 --> 00:02:56.192
  • And jesus is telling nicodemus, all those things
  • 00:02:56.192 --> 00:03:00.129
  • Are nothing if you're not born again.
  • 00:03:00.129 --> 00:03:05.235
  • That context
  • 00:03:05.568 --> 00:03:06.703
  • Sounded familiar to nicodemus, but it was not explained
  • 00:03:06.703 --> 00:03:10.907
  • To nicodemus in such terms because jewish rabbi,
  • 00:03:10.907 --> 00:03:15.211
  • Jewish priest, when you converted from
  • 00:03:15.211 --> 00:03:18.181
  • Being a gentile to practicing judaism, you were told
  • 00:03:18.181 --> 00:03:22.452
  • You are now like a newborn child
  • 00:03:22.452 --> 00:03:26.656
  • That were like, it holds a lot of weight
  • 00:03:27.490 --> 00:03:30.026
  • Because that were like means
  • 00:03:30.026 --> 00:03:32.028
  • You're almost there, but you're not quite there yet.
  • 00:03:32.028 --> 00:03:35.398
  • When someone says you're like family,
  • 00:03:35.398 --> 00:03:37.333
  • What they're implying is you're almost there,
  • 00:03:37.333 --> 00:03:40.737
  • But you're not there yet.
  • 00:03:40.737 --> 00:03:42.905
  • When someone says you're like a friend,
  • 00:03:42.905 --> 00:03:44.507
  • They're telling you, you're
  • 00:03:44.507 --> 00:03:45.441
  • Almost there, but you're not there yet.
  • 00:03:45.441 --> 00:03:49.012
  • And what jewish priests and pharisees and
  • 00:03:49.012 --> 00:03:51.581
  • And those that practiced the laws were teaching those
  • 00:03:51.581 --> 00:03:54.951
  • That had converted from being a gentile to now practicing
  • 00:03:54.951 --> 00:03:58.321
  • Judaism is you're almost there, but you're not there yet.
  • 00:03:58.321 --> 00:04:02.592
  • And what jesus is debunking is the myth that you can make
  • 00:04:02.592 --> 00:04:06.963
  • It without being born again,
  • 00:04:06.963 --> 00:04:09.632
  • Religion that tries to cleanse you.
  • 00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:13.803
  • But it's salvation in a relationship
  • 00:04:13.803 --> 00:04:15.938
  • With jesus christ that resurrects you.
  • 00:04:15.938 --> 00:04:19.942
  • If you're not resurrected and you're not born again,
  • 00:04:19.942 --> 00:04:22.845
  • You can try all these different things to cleanse you
  • 00:04:22.845 --> 00:04:25.882
  • And you still not be clean enough
  • 00:04:25.882 --> 00:04:27.984
  • To inherit the kingdom of god.
  • 00:04:27.984 --> 00:04:30.019
  • And jesus is explaining to nicodemus and essentially
  • 00:04:30.019 --> 00:04:33.189
  • Explaining to us today, the only way you inherit
  • 00:04:33.189 --> 00:04:36.025
  • The kingdom of god is you must be born again.
  • 00:04:36.025 --> 00:04:39.662
  • There not multiple ways to god.
  • 00:04:39.662 --> 00:04:41.597
  • There not multiple streams to god
  • 00:04:41.597 --> 00:04:43.433
  • There not multiple avenues to god.
  • 00:04:43.433 --> 00:04:45.101
  • You must be born again.
  • 00:04:45.101 --> 00:04:48.471
  • Nicodemus practicing all these different things.
  • 00:04:49.472 --> 00:04:53.409
  • He understood both jewish and greek culture
  • 00:04:53.409 --> 00:04:57.113
  • And what jesus was explaining to him was from the greek word
  • 00:04:57.113 --> 00:05:00.850
  • Anothen, which means again and from above.
  • 00:05:00.850 --> 00:05:06.989
  • So jesus is explaining to nicodemus,
  • 00:05:07.790 --> 00:05:10.626
  • Not only do you have to be born again,
  • 00:05:10.626 --> 00:05:13.830
  • You must be born again, this time from above.
  • 00:05:13.830 --> 00:05:17.700
  • You all have heard me say this if you've been going
  • 00:05:18.701 --> 00:05:20.837
  • Or you've been watching,
  • 00:05:20.837 --> 00:05:21.738
  • Or you've been leaning into
  • 00:05:21.738 --> 00:05:22.872
  • Anything that we've been doing for the last three weeks
  • 00:05:22.872 --> 00:05:25.641
  • When you were born into your mother's womb,
  • 00:05:25.641 --> 00:05:27.977
  • You begin to exist.
  • 00:05:27.977 --> 00:05:29.245
  • But when you were born again, you begin to live.
  • 00:05:29.245 --> 00:05:31.748
  • And the thing about some of us in this moment is
  • 00:05:31.748 --> 00:05:34.250
  • We have to settle
  • 00:05:34.250 --> 00:05:35.485
  • For existing and not living, because we have not been born
  • 00:05:35.485 --> 00:05:38.821
  • Again.
  • 00:05:38.821 --> 00:05:39.455
  • But somehow, someway,
  • 00:05:39.455 --> 00:05:41.023
  • We think because of our good works
  • 00:05:41.023 --> 00:05:42.725
  • And our great deeds,
  • 00:05:42.725 --> 00:05:43.760
  • That we are going to inherit the kingdom of god.
  • 00:05:43.760 --> 00:05:45.828
  • And the reality is, is the only way we will
  • 00:05:45.828 --> 00:05:48.197
  • Inherit the kingdom is if we are born again.
  • 00:05:48.197 --> 00:05:54.170
  • So jews, jesus is
  • 00:05:54.604 --> 00:05:55.938
  • Confronting the limits of religion.
  • 00:05:55.938 --> 00:05:58.941
  • He's teaching us that religion can't rebirth you.
  • 00:05:58.941 --> 00:06:02.445
  • Your pedigree can't redeem you.
  • 00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:06.649
  • And although
  • 00:06:06.983 --> 00:06:07.650
  • Your first birth got you here,
  • 00:06:07.650 --> 00:06:10.620
  • It's only your second birth that will get you in.
  • 00:06:10.620 --> 00:06:14.957
  • If you're taking notes and i encourage you to,
  • 00:06:15.858 --> 00:06:17.927
  • I want you to write this down.
  • 00:06:17.927 --> 00:06:19.095
  • Point number one is this.
  • 00:06:19.095 --> 00:06:22.331
  • Your status
  • 00:06:22.665 --> 00:06:24.700
  • Doesn't substitute
  • 00:06:24.700 --> 00:06:27.303
  • For salvation.
  • 00:06:27.303 --> 00:06:30.573
  • And here's the reality of your life.
  • 00:06:31.374 --> 00:06:32.842
  • I know you may have status.
  • 00:06:32.842 --> 00:06:35.711
  • I know you may have stature.
  • 00:06:35.711 --> 00:06:37.980
  • I know you may have worldly influence.
  • 00:06:37.980 --> 00:06:40.216
  • I know you may be a person of affluence,
  • 00:06:40.216 --> 00:06:42.485
  • But your status does not substitute your salvation.
  • 00:06:42.485 --> 00:06:45.721
  • And you may be listening to me right now.
  • 00:06:46.556 --> 00:06:47.990
  • You may be going back through all the good things
  • 00:06:47.990 --> 00:06:50.426
  • And all the great deeds you've done,
  • 00:06:50.426 --> 00:06:51.861
  • And how much you've given the charity,
  • 00:06:51.861 --> 00:06:53.596
  • And how much you've done for humanity and society.
  • 00:06:53.596 --> 00:06:56.632
  • But your status does not substitute for salvation.
  • 00:06:56.632 --> 00:07:00.069
  • And what jesus wants you to know today,
  • 00:07:00.069 --> 00:07:02.338
  • That if you're not born again,
  • 00:07:02.338 --> 00:07:04.207
  • All of those things that you've done,
  • 00:07:04.207 --> 00:07:06.209
  • They still add up to nothing.
  • 00:07:06.209 --> 00:07:09.512
  • See being around the things of god isn't
  • 00:07:10.379 --> 00:07:13.049
  • The same as being transformed by the spirit of god.
  • 00:07:13.049 --> 00:07:18.654
  • You may be around and even in church
  • 00:07:19.422 --> 00:07:22.558
  • And church culture could have raised you, but
  • 00:07:22.558 --> 00:07:25.495
  • It is only christ that can resurrect you.
  • 00:07:25.495 --> 00:07:28.764
  • And there's some of us that they know church,
  • 00:07:29.632 --> 00:07:31.934
  • And we know church lingo, and we know when to
  • 00:07:31.934 --> 00:07:33.503
  • Lift our hands, and we know when to cry on to.
  • 00:07:33.503 --> 00:07:35.705
  • And we know what to say and when to say it.
  • 00:07:35.705 --> 00:07:37.807
  • And we know the church language.
  • 00:07:37.807 --> 00:07:39.342
  • When someone asks you, how are you doing?
  • 00:07:39.342 --> 00:07:40.610
  • And we say, we're blessed.
  • 00:07:40.610 --> 00:07:41.744
  • And i am going and blessed and i outgoing,
  • 00:07:41.744 --> 00:07:43.813
  • But you're far from god.
  • 00:07:43.813 --> 00:07:45.147
  • And the bible describes
  • 00:07:45.147 --> 00:07:46.315
  • It as having a form of godliness with no relationship.
  • 00:07:46.315 --> 00:07:49.552
  • And jesus is explaining to nicodemus,
  • 00:07:49.552 --> 00:07:51.687
  • You know about god, but you don't really know him.
  • 00:07:51.687 --> 00:07:56.559
  • You've been practicing and keeping
  • 00:07:57.293 --> 00:07:59.829
  • All these laws in your mind, but you have not developed
  • 00:07:59.829 --> 00:08:02.798
  • A relationship with them.
  • 00:08:02.798 --> 00:08:06.302
  • And all these different things have garnered you status, but
  • 00:08:06.302 --> 00:08:09.338
  • Your status is not a substitute for salvation.
  • 00:08:09.338 --> 00:08:14.310
  • See? family.
  • 00:08:14.644 --> 00:08:15.845
  • What we have to come to grips with is proximity to jesus
  • 00:08:15.845 --> 00:08:18.347
  • Does not equal intimacy with jesus.
  • 00:08:18.347 --> 00:08:22.685
  • Proximity
  • 00:08:22.985 --> 00:08:24.687
  • Does not equate to intimacy
  • 00:08:24.687 --> 00:08:27.356
  • Because you can be around someone all your life
  • 00:08:27.356 --> 00:08:30.293
  • And still not be transformed by them.
  • 00:08:30.293 --> 00:08:35.498
  • Jesus is explaining to nicodemus
  • 00:08:36.132 --> 00:08:37.934
  • As nicodemus comes to him in the night.
  • 00:08:37.934 --> 00:08:41.604
  • Your rituals,
  • 00:08:41.971 --> 00:08:44.140
  • Your religion,
  • 00:08:44.140 --> 00:08:46.008
  • Your practices,
  • 00:08:46.008 --> 00:08:47.910
  • Your keeping of the law, your antics.
  • 00:08:47.910 --> 00:08:51.981
  • They all amount to your status,
  • 00:08:51.981 --> 00:08:55.151
  • But not your salvation.
  • 00:08:55.151 --> 00:08:58.487
  • What he's telling nicodemus
  • 00:08:59.088 --> 00:09:01.757
  • Is your status won't get you into heaven.
  • 00:09:01.757 --> 00:09:05.094
  • You, knowing the things to
  • 00:09:05.661 --> 00:09:07.096
  • Do but not knowing me won't get you into heaven.
  • 00:09:07.096 --> 00:09:10.366
  • You know, in religion.
  • 00:09:10.833 --> 00:09:12.301
  • But not having a relationship won't
  • 00:09:12.301 --> 00:09:14.003
  • Get you into the kingdom of god.
  • 00:09:14.003 --> 00:09:17.006
  • And this is where some of us find ourselves today.
  • 00:09:17.006 --> 00:09:20.042
  • We've been around this western culture,
  • 00:09:20.843 --> 00:09:23.446
  • Church culture, so long that we have begin to believe
  • 00:09:23.446 --> 00:09:26.983
  • That this is supposed to be about us.
  • 00:09:26.983 --> 00:09:31.454
  • That we serve god
  • 00:09:31.887 --> 00:09:33.923
  • And we are faithful to the bride of christ when we feel like it
  • 00:09:33.923 --> 00:09:38.160
  • And when we want to go, and when it fits our schedule.
  • 00:09:38.160 --> 00:09:41.430
  • And we've made this relationship about us.
  • 00:09:41.430 --> 00:09:44.600
  • And if jesus doesn't
  • 00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:46.135
  • Answer our prayers, our stop being consistent and faithful,
  • 00:09:46.135 --> 00:09:49.472
  • Because surely i am good enough to get the best from him
  • 00:09:49.472 --> 00:09:53.009
  • Without giving him my best in return.
  • 00:09:53.009 --> 00:09:56.345
  • We've made this about status
  • 00:09:56.946 --> 00:10:00.082
  • Instead of about salvation.
  • 00:10:00.683 --> 00:10:04.220
  • One of the things that i've come to learn about god
  • 00:10:04.220 --> 00:10:07.823
  • Is that god is not impressed by my spiritual resume.
  • 00:10:07.823 --> 00:10:11.694
  • If my heart is still unemployed.
  • 00:10:12.328 --> 00:10:17.733
  • And some of our hearts are unemployed,
  • 00:10:18.501 --> 00:10:21.470
  • And we're trying to give god our spiritual resume
  • 00:10:21.470 --> 00:10:23.673
  • And tell him, these are all the good things that we've done.
  • 00:10:23.673 --> 00:10:25.941
  • This is how great of a person i am,
  • 00:10:25.941 --> 00:10:27.576
  • And this is the things that i'm expecting from you.
  • 00:10:27.576 --> 00:10:30.079
  • And this is how great i am.
  • 00:10:30.079 --> 00:10:31.781
  • And we are our own cheerleaders.
  • 00:10:31.781 --> 00:10:33.582
  • And when you have to give your resume to jesus,
  • 00:10:33.582 --> 00:10:36.585
  • It is like you singing your own birthday song.
  • 00:10:36.585 --> 00:10:41.157
  • Jesus does not care about your resume.
  • 00:10:41.957 --> 00:10:43.793
  • If your heart is still unemployed,
  • 00:10:43.793 --> 00:10:46.095
  • He doesn't want some of you.
  • 00:10:46.696 --> 00:10:48.030
  • He doesn't want most of you.
  • 00:10:48.030 --> 00:10:49.098
  • He doesn't want the majority of you.
  • 00:10:49.098 --> 00:10:50.332
  • He wants all of you. he does not want your religion.
  • 00:10:50.332 --> 00:10:52.935
  • He does not want your rituals.
  • 00:10:52.935 --> 00:10:54.470
  • He wants your relationship.
  • 00:10:54.470 --> 00:10:56.105
  • And the only way you can
  • 00:10:56.105 --> 00:10:57.273
  • Establish a relationship with jesus is through salvation.
  • 00:10:57.273 --> 00:11:00.676
  • And salvation creates an opportunity for you to be born
  • 00:11:00.676 --> 00:11:05.014
  • Again.
  • 00:11:05.214 --> 00:11:08.317
  • Point number two.
  • 00:11:08.751 --> 00:11:09.719
  • And another way of explaining this is this
  • 00:11:09.719 --> 00:11:12.888
  • You don't need a second chance.
  • 00:11:13.556 --> 00:11:17.093
  • You need a second birth.
  • 00:11:17.593 --> 00:11:21.063
  • Some of you have been praying,
  • 00:11:21.697 --> 00:11:22.765
  • God, just give me another chance.
  • 00:11:22.765 --> 00:11:25.367
  • I'll do better this time.
  • 00:11:25.367 --> 00:11:28.003
  • God, just give me another chance.
  • 00:11:28.003 --> 00:11:29.305
  • Give me another chance, give me another chance.
  • 00:11:29.305 --> 00:11:31.340
  • And the prayer should be god, make me new again.
  • 00:11:31.340 --> 00:11:35.010
  • Kill my flesh so that your spirit
  • 00:11:35.010 --> 00:11:37.546
  • Resurrect a new life in me.
  • 00:11:37.546 --> 00:11:39.348
  • But we don't like to hear.
  • 00:11:39.348 --> 00:11:41.016
  • We have to die so that jesus could raise to new life in us,
  • 00:11:41.016 --> 00:11:44.754
  • Because that makes our flesh uncomfortable.
  • 00:11:44.754 --> 00:11:48.991
  • That means we have to
  • 00:11:49.492 --> 00:11:50.493
  • Actually get out of comfort and convenience,
  • 00:11:50.493 --> 00:11:54.196
  • And sit with god long enough for him to break off of us.
  • 00:11:55.331 --> 00:11:59.001
  • Everything that
  • 00:11:59.001 --> 00:12:00.169
  • We've been holding on to that has made us more like us
  • 00:12:00.169 --> 00:12:03.506
  • And more like the enemy, and not like him.
  • 00:12:03.506 --> 00:12:07.777
  • You don't need a second chance.
  • 00:12:08.410 --> 00:12:10.012
  • You need a second birth.
  • 00:12:10.012 --> 00:12:13.582
  • We have to bring ourselves to the place where we stop
  • 00:12:13.582 --> 00:12:17.119
  • Trying to rehab
  • 00:12:17.486 --> 00:12:20.156
  • What jesus came to replace.
  • 00:12:20.156 --> 00:12:23.659
  • Some of us are trying to rehab,
  • 00:12:24.293 --> 00:12:25.761
  • But jesus wants us to replace.
  • 00:12:25.761 --> 00:12:29.165
  • And he's not going to rehab the relationship
  • 00:12:29.165 --> 00:12:31.634
  • That he never wanted you to be in in the first place.
  • 00:12:31.634 --> 00:12:34.503
  • He's not going to rehab the job he told you not to take.
  • 00:12:34.503 --> 00:12:37.640
  • He's not going to rehab the time that you've been wasting,
  • 00:12:37.640 --> 00:12:40.676
  • He wants to replace it.
  • 00:12:40.676 --> 00:12:42.611
  • And when you turn it over to him,
  • 00:12:42.611 --> 00:12:44.914
  • He will crucify it and resurrect out of it
  • 00:12:44.914 --> 00:12:47.917
  • What he desires to come back to new life.
  • 00:12:47.917 --> 00:12:52.221
  • What we have to
  • 00:12:52.588 --> 00:12:53.656
  • Understand is this salvation isn't about self-help.
  • 00:12:53.656 --> 00:12:56.692
  • It is about self death.
  • 00:12:56.692 --> 00:12:59.862
  • And some of us are still trying to serve god
  • 00:12:59.862 --> 00:13:02.298
  • While still being alive.
  • 00:13:02.298 --> 00:13:04.433
  • Let me remind you, what does a dead person say?
  • 00:13:04.433 --> 00:13:07.937
  • How does a dead person walk?
  • 00:13:08.537 --> 00:13:10.806
  • How does a dead person move?
  • 00:13:10.806 --> 00:13:13.042
  • How does a dead person work?
  • 00:13:13.042 --> 00:13:15.110
  • They connect and to new life is given
  • 00:13:15.110 --> 00:13:17.947
  • Back to them by them being resurrected to new life again.
  • 00:13:17.947 --> 00:13:21.817
  • And when you're resurrected to a new life again,
  • 00:13:21.817 --> 00:13:24.119
  • It's a bring you to depending on jesus
  • 00:13:24.119 --> 00:13:26.689
  • Every single step of the way, every single day of your life.
  • 00:13:26.689 --> 00:13:30.092
  • And when you wake up, you remind yourself,
  • 00:13:30.092 --> 00:13:32.061
  • I am dead, but christ is alive on the inside of me.
  • 00:13:32.061 --> 00:13:35.898
  • And if it had not been for his grace on my side,
  • 00:13:35.898 --> 00:13:39.501
  • Where in the world would i be?
  • 00:13:39.501 --> 00:13:41.470
  • I tell you what you will be.
  • 00:13:41.470 --> 00:13:42.805
  • You'll be bound for hell. stuck in a casket.
  • 00:13:42.805 --> 00:13:45.708
  • But he's so fit to touch your dead corpse
  • 00:13:45.708 --> 00:13:48.310
  • And bring you back to life again.
  • 00:13:48.310 --> 00:13:50.412
  • And i wonder, is
  • 00:13:50.412 --> 00:13:51.413
  • Anybody grateful for the grace of jesus christ?
  • 00:13:51.413 --> 00:13:55.384
  • Say yes.
  • 00:13:55.384 --> 00:14:01.824
  • So this relationship isn't about self-help.
  • 00:14:02.691 --> 00:14:05.361
  • You can't help yourself.
  • 00:14:05.361 --> 00:14:08.297
  • You've tried.
  • 00:14:08.297 --> 00:14:10.566
  • You've been spinning your wheels in the mud,
  • 00:14:10.566 --> 00:14:12.368
  • Trying to help yourself,
  • 00:14:12.368 --> 00:14:13.769
  • Trying to prove to yourself that you're not a bad person.
  • 00:14:13.769 --> 00:14:16.538
  • Trying to prove to yourself that you can actually do
  • 00:14:16.538 --> 00:14:19.041
  • The things that you said you're going to do.
  • 00:14:19.041 --> 00:14:20.976
  • And the reality is, you can't,
  • 00:14:20.976 --> 00:14:22.478
  • Without the help of jesus christ.
  • 00:14:22.478 --> 00:14:24.513
  • We are all in dire need
  • 00:14:24.513 --> 00:14:27.449
  • Of the only thing that jesus can give us,
  • 00:14:27.449 --> 00:14:30.853
  • And that is his grace
  • 00:14:30.853 --> 00:14:33.689
  • And his mercy.
  • 00:14:33.689 --> 00:14:36.859
  • God will never bless
  • 00:14:36.859 --> 00:14:40.462
  • What he called you to bury.
  • 00:14:41.063 --> 00:14:44.266
  • Some of you, your praying you god, i just want you to bless.
  • 00:14:45.434 --> 00:14:48.704
  • I just want you to bless.
  • 00:14:48.704 --> 00:14:51.440
  • And god is saying, i just want you to bury.
  • 00:14:49.538 --> 00:14:52.775
  • I just want you to bury.
  • 00:14:52.775 --> 00:14:54.043
  • I just want you to bury you.
  • 00:14:54.043 --> 00:14:55.010
  • I just want you to bury god.
  • 00:14:55.010 --> 00:14:56.345
  • No, no, no, she she she's the one for me.
  • 00:14:56.345 --> 00:14:58.180
  • God, she's the one. she's the one.
  • 00:14:58.180 --> 00:14:59.515
  • I want you to bury it. i want you to bury god.
  • 00:14:59.515 --> 00:15:01.550
  • God, god.
  • 00:15:01.550 --> 00:15:02.384
  • He lift his hands and worship god.
  • 00:15:02.384 --> 00:15:03.986
  • And he knows the words to the song.
  • 00:15:03.986 --> 00:15:05.387
  • I want you to bury it.
  • 00:15:05.387 --> 00:15:06.522
  • I want you to bury it. i want you to bury it.
  • 00:15:06.522 --> 00:15:08.290
  • But, god,
  • 00:15:08.290 --> 00:15:09.191
  • There's never going to be an opportunity
  • 00:15:09.191 --> 00:15:10.292
  • That comes like this again. i want you to bless it.
  • 00:15:10.292 --> 00:15:12.561
  • I want you to bless it, and i want you to bury it,
  • 00:15:12.561 --> 00:15:14.630
  • And i want you to bury it, and i want you to bury it,
  • 00:15:14.630 --> 00:15:16.799
  • Because god will never bless what he's called you to bury.
  • 00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:20.369
  • But some of us are blinded by the reality of life,
  • 00:15:20.369 --> 00:15:23.772
  • And our heart has gotten hardened.
  • 00:15:23.772 --> 00:15:25.574
  • So we think everything we want is what god wants for us.
  • 00:15:25.574 --> 00:15:29.111
  • If we made this relationship about what god can do for us
  • 00:15:29.111 --> 00:15:33.248
  • And not what we're supposed to do and surrender to him.
  • 00:15:33.248 --> 00:15:43.292
  • The reality is,
  • 00:15:43.659 --> 00:15:46.228
  • You don't need a better version of you.
  • 00:15:46.228 --> 00:15:49.498
  • You don't need a better version of you.
  • 00:15:49.498 --> 00:15:51.266
  • You don't need a better version of who you used to be.
  • 00:15:51.266 --> 00:15:54.036
  • You need a buried version of you.
  • 00:15:54.036 --> 00:15:56.305
  • A version of you
  • 00:15:56.305 --> 00:15:57.439
  • That wakes up in the morning and tells god i'm dead. now.
  • 00:15:57.439 --> 00:16:01.577
  • What? i'm dead.
  • 00:16:01.577 --> 00:16:03.145
  • Raise me to new life.
  • 00:16:03.145 --> 00:16:04.780
  • I'm dead.
  • 00:16:04.780 --> 00:16:05.647
  • Have your way in me i'm dead.
  • 00:16:05.647 --> 00:16:07.916
  • Lead me in.
  • 00:16:07.916 --> 00:16:08.917
  • Direct me and show me what you want me to do.
  • 00:16:08.917 --> 00:16:11.620
  • I'm dead.
  • 00:16:11.620 --> 00:16:12.721
  • Raise the son of the living god on the inside of me.
  • 00:16:12.721 --> 00:16:15.891
  • So i can do whatever it is you want me to do.
  • 00:16:15.891 --> 00:16:18.494
  • You don't need a better version of you.
  • 00:16:18.494 --> 00:16:20.529
  • You need a buried version of you.
  • 00:16:20.529 --> 00:16:23.866
  • You know what our problem is?
  • 00:16:24.500 --> 00:16:25.601
  • We're still alive. we're still trying to live. we.
  • 00:16:25.601 --> 00:16:28.037
  • We think that god came so we can let know.
  • 00:16:28.037 --> 00:16:30.105
  • He sent his son so you could die.
  • 00:16:30.105 --> 00:16:35.144
  • I'm stuck on.
  • 00:16:35.511 --> 00:16:36.678
  • I'm living my life like his golden.
  • 00:16:36.678 --> 00:16:43.052
  • Is supposed to be dead.
  • 00:16:43.552 --> 00:16:46.221
  • But the dead person have a
  • 00:16:46.221 --> 00:16:48.057
  • Will on their own.
  • 00:16:48.057 --> 00:16:51.193
  • Is a dead person having an opinion?
  • 00:16:51.193 --> 00:16:54.730
  • A dead person have a preference?
  • 00:16:54.730 --> 00:16:58.000
  • Made this relationship
  • 00:16:58.467 --> 00:17:01.236
  • About us because we're still trying
  • 00:17:01.236 --> 00:17:03.772
  • To maintain our life.
  • 00:17:03.772 --> 00:17:07.676
  • While receiving the life
  • 00:17:08.210 --> 00:17:09.578
  • He laid down for us.
  • 00:17:09.578 --> 00:17:12.915
  • It will never work that way.
  • 00:17:13.515 --> 00:17:17.219
  • God is not looking
  • 00:17:17.653 --> 00:17:18.620
  • For a better version of you.
  • 00:17:18.620 --> 00:17:22.458
  • He's looking for a buried version of you.
  • 00:17:22.458 --> 00:17:26.628
  • Look at your neighbor and tell your neighbor
  • 00:17:27.529 --> 00:17:29.031
  • It's time for you
  • 00:17:29.031 --> 00:17:32.234
  • To die.
  • 00:17:32.234 --> 00:17:42.077
  • Some of y'all like, not me.
  • 00:17:42.678 --> 00:17:44.746
  • And i still got a life to live. i.
  • 00:17:44.746 --> 00:17:52.454
  • Your flesh is still too alive.
  • 00:17:53.055 --> 00:17:56.391
  • The flesh is still leading you.
  • 00:17:56.391 --> 00:17:57.593
  • Your flesh is still ruling, and your flesh
  • 00:17:57.593 --> 00:17:59.161
  • Is still leading you into sin.
  • 00:17:59.161 --> 00:18:00.429
  • It's telling you when to eat, what to eat, when to eat.
  • 00:18:00.429 --> 00:18:02.631
  • It is telling you, oh, i feel like doing this today.
  • 00:18:02.631 --> 00:18:04.967
  • And you actually agreeing with your flesh
  • 00:18:04.967 --> 00:18:06.502
  • And doing what you know you should not be doing.
  • 00:18:06.502 --> 00:18:08.270
  • Your flesh is telling you, i'm
  • 00:18:08.270 --> 00:18:09.404
  • Going to stay over this girl's house this time of night
  • 00:18:09.404 --> 00:18:11.273
  • And you know
  • 00:18:11.273 --> 00:18:12.074
  • Your flesh is leading you into sin
  • 00:18:12.074 --> 00:18:13.342
  • Because your flesh has become your idol and not jesus christ.
  • 00:18:13.342 --> 00:18:18.413
  • It's time for us to die.
  • 00:18:18.914 --> 00:18:22.151
  • You know what's wrong with most churches?
  • 00:18:22.151 --> 00:18:24.820
  • It is full of people who still think that they are alive.
  • 00:18:24.820 --> 00:18:31.460
  • It's not until we come to the realization
  • 00:18:32.327 --> 00:18:34.363
  • That we're supposed to die daily, that we see christ
  • 00:18:34.363 --> 00:18:38.367
  • Resurrected to new life on the inside of us.
  • 00:18:38.367 --> 00:18:44.540
  • The gospel
  • 00:18:44.840 --> 00:18:45.641
  • Isn't about behavior modification.
  • 00:18:45.641 --> 00:18:52.548
  • It's about spiritual rejuvenation.
  • 00:18:53.315 --> 00:18:57.052
  • The gospel isn't about you getting better.
  • 00:18:57.052 --> 00:18:59.721
  • It's about you dying so that the christ
  • 00:18:59.721 --> 00:19:02.191
  • That raised from the dead can be raised to new life
  • 00:19:02.191 --> 00:19:05.060
  • On the inside of you.
  • 00:19:05.060 --> 00:19:09.965
  • And religion.
  • 00:19:10.332 --> 00:19:12.534
  • It may clean you up,
  • 00:19:12.534 --> 00:19:15.170
  • But only jesus can make you new.
  • 00:19:15.170 --> 00:19:18.407
  • Religion tells you you can incorporate other things.
  • 00:19:18.407 --> 00:19:21.543
  • Crystals will clean you, sage will clean,
  • 00:19:21.543 --> 00:19:24.846
  • Ouija boards will clean you.
  • 00:19:24.846 --> 00:19:28.817
  • Putting hair in a bottle and shaking it up and poking
  • 00:19:28.817 --> 00:19:31.520
  • It will clean you and it'll curse whoever curses you.
  • 00:19:31.520 --> 00:19:34.523
  • All these different things will clean you,
  • 00:19:34.523 --> 00:19:36.091
  • And we've been trying to incorporate
  • 00:19:36.091 --> 00:19:37.492
  • All these different things and what
  • 00:19:37.492 --> 00:19:39.428
  • Is meant to make you holy.
  • 00:19:39.428 --> 00:19:43.498
  • Religion will clean to you,
  • 00:19:44.099 --> 00:19:45.400
  • But only christ will resurrect and redeem you.
  • 00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:51.807
  • So jesus is telling nicodemus,
  • 00:19:52.407 --> 00:19:55.544
  • Who understood jewish law
  • 00:19:55.544 --> 00:19:59.147
  • Because he was a well educated pharisee.
  • 00:19:59.147 --> 00:20:02.818
  • Point number three, that you want formulas
  • 00:20:02.818 --> 00:20:08.257
  • But i bring freedom.
  • 00:20:08.690 --> 00:20:12.461
  • We've been looking for formulas.
  • 00:20:13.095 --> 00:20:14.396
  • We've been looking for information.
  • 00:20:14.396 --> 00:20:15.731
  • We've been looking for knowledge and getting for a life of what
  • 00:20:15.731 --> 00:20:19.701
  • Knowledge can do for us.
  • 00:20:19.701 --> 00:20:20.936
  • And jesus is saying,
  • 00:20:20.936 --> 00:20:22.137
  • You want formulas,
  • 00:20:22.137 --> 00:20:23.572
  • I'm bringing freedom.
  • 00:20:23.572 --> 00:20:25.107
  • And if you receive freedom,
  • 00:20:25.107 --> 00:20:26.842
  • You have to get rid of the excuses.
  • 00:20:26.842 --> 00:20:28.810
  • When you don't get all the formulas.
  • 00:20:28.810 --> 00:20:32.147
  • We want to rationalize our way into the kingdom of god.
  • 00:20:33.215 --> 00:20:36.451
  • We want to earn our way into the kingdom of god.
  • 00:20:37.419 --> 00:20:39.554
  • You know what other religions tell you? you gotta work for it.
  • 00:20:39.554 --> 00:20:43.292
  • Jehovah's witnesses, so
  • 00:20:43.792 --> 00:20:44.893
  • You got to knock on them a certain amount of doors.
  • 00:20:44.893 --> 00:20:48.497
  • This is the only relationship
  • 00:20:49.131 --> 00:20:50.766
  • That you can receive and inherit the kingdom of god.
  • 00:20:50.766 --> 00:20:53.869
  • You don't have to work for it.
  • 00:20:53.869 --> 00:20:57.673
  • You receive it.
  • 00:20:58.040 --> 00:21:01.076
  • Harikrishna tells you.
  • 00:21:01.076 --> 00:21:02.110
  • You have to work for it all.
  • 00:21:02.110 --> 00:21:04.179
  • Allah tells you, you have to work for it.
  • 00:21:04.179 --> 00:21:06.581
  • Buddha tells you, you have to work for it.
  • 00:21:06.581 --> 00:21:09.017
  • The hundreds of thousands of gods in hinduism
  • 00:21:09.017 --> 00:21:11.320
  • Tell you, you have to work for it.
  • 00:21:11.320 --> 00:21:12.754
  • And jesus is coming to tell you.
  • 00:21:12.754 --> 00:21:14.690
  • You have to be born again.
  • 00:21:14.690 --> 00:21:19.361
  • And nicodemus, confused
  • 00:21:19.861 --> 00:21:21.463
  • Because he's used to formulas that say.
  • 00:21:21.463 --> 00:21:23.632
  • Shall i go back into my mother's womb.
  • 00:21:23.632 --> 00:21:28.303
  • And jesus begins to break it down
  • 00:21:29.037 --> 00:21:32.541
  • And tell him what is born of flesh
  • 00:21:32.541 --> 00:21:35.677
  • Is flesh,
  • 00:21:35.977 --> 00:21:38.480
  • But what is born of water?
  • 00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:40.582
  • And the spirit
  • 00:21:40.582 --> 00:21:42.884
  • Is of the spirit,
  • 00:21:42.884 --> 00:21:45.253
  • Can you control the wind.
  • 00:21:45.253 --> 00:21:47.622
  • If you cannot control the wind, you cannot control
  • 00:21:47.622 --> 00:21:50.726
  • The spirit of god.
  • 00:21:50.726 --> 00:21:54.463
  • But jesus was explaining to nicodemus
  • 00:21:54.463 --> 00:21:57.833
  • Is, if your faith only makes sense,
  • 00:21:57.833 --> 00:22:01.370
  • It will not make a difference.
  • 00:22:01.370 --> 00:22:04.740
  • If you can rationalize your way into a better life,
  • 00:22:05.774 --> 00:22:09.411
  • If you can rationalize your way into stronger faith,
  • 00:22:09.411 --> 00:22:12.414
  • Your faith will not make a difference.
  • 00:22:12.414 --> 00:22:15.951
  • Because a faith that is alive requires a spirit
  • 00:22:15.951 --> 00:22:20.655
  • You cannot control.
  • 00:22:20.655 --> 00:22:25.761
  • I say it again
  • 00:22:26.094 --> 00:22:27.496
  • A faith that is alive
  • 00:22:27.496 --> 00:22:29.931
  • Requires a spirit you cannot control.
  • 00:22:29.931 --> 00:22:33.735
  • So hear me any spirit that you are
  • 00:22:33.735 --> 00:22:36.905
  • Trying to control is a demonic spirit.
  • 00:22:36.905 --> 00:22:40.175
  • And you were practicing witchcraft.
  • 00:22:40.175 --> 00:22:46.314
  • Y'all not talking to me today.
  • 00:22:46.915 --> 00:22:48.784
  • I don't care if you use scripture.
  • 00:22:49.518 --> 00:22:51.219
  • Guess what?
  • 00:22:51.219 --> 00:22:52.421
  • Satan knows scripture and he still is the author of life.
  • 00:22:52.421 --> 00:22:55.590
  • I don't care what pastor you listen to
  • 00:22:55.590 --> 00:22:57.659
  • If they're utilizing any spirit to manipulate control,
  • 00:22:57.659 --> 00:23:01.463
  • To try to change what it is
  • 00:23:01.463 --> 00:23:02.931
  • That god never asked for you to take.
  • 00:23:02.931 --> 00:23:05.100
  • It is a spirit of witchcraft,
  • 00:23:05.100 --> 00:23:07.002
  • And you need to stop listening to that person
  • 00:23:07.002 --> 00:23:09.471
  • Because any spirit
  • 00:23:09.471 --> 00:23:10.906
  • That you try to control, it's a spirit of witchcraft.
  • 00:23:10.906 --> 00:23:14.576
  • How do i know that to be true?
  • 00:23:15.177 --> 00:23:16.778
  • Because faith that is alive requires a spirit.
  • 00:23:16.778 --> 00:23:18.914
  • You cannot control the spirit of god
  • 00:23:18.914 --> 00:23:21.183
  • Should not be trying to, to, to to be dictated
  • 00:23:21.183 --> 00:23:24.319
  • And boxed in by what you think it should do in your life.
  • 00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:28.590
  • Come on, the spirit of god is not
  • 00:23:29.324 --> 00:23:31.126
  • Given to you for you to try to control him.
  • 00:23:31.126 --> 00:23:34.429
  • We live in a society in an age
  • 00:23:35.030 --> 00:23:36.498
  • Where we try to box in the holy spirit.
  • 00:23:36.498 --> 00:23:39.100
  • We got our formulas.
  • 00:23:39.100 --> 00:23:41.336
  • Today i'm going to church.
  • 00:23:41.336 --> 00:23:43.104
  • They go sing 3 or 4 songs.
  • 00:23:43.104 --> 00:23:46.041
  • Pastor gonna get up, he go preach 35 minutes.
  • 00:23:46.041 --> 00:23:50.078
  • At the end of that, he's going to give an altar call.
  • 00:23:50.078 --> 00:23:53.348
  • After that, he's going to get ready to take up offering.
  • 00:23:53.348 --> 00:23:56.218
  • That's when we get up and leave.
  • 00:23:56.218 --> 00:24:00.989
  • So we can miss traffic
  • 00:24:01.456 --> 00:24:04.292
  • And make it to brunch on time,
  • 00:24:04.292 --> 00:24:06.461
  • Because we know religion and rituals and we know antics
  • 00:24:06.461 --> 00:24:10.031
  • And we know what makes us comfortable,
  • 00:24:10.031 --> 00:24:11.600
  • But we don't know our relationship. i don't know
  • 00:24:11.600 --> 00:24:13.869
  • When's the last time you've been on a date?
  • 00:24:13.869 --> 00:24:15.971
  • I don't know.
  • 00:24:15.971 --> 00:24:17.205
  • When's the last time you been out with somebody you love?
  • 00:24:17.205 --> 00:24:18.807
  • I don't know.
  • 00:24:18.807 --> 00:24:19.908
  • What's the last time you've been deep in conversation
  • 00:24:19.908 --> 00:24:21.476
  • And they were talking to you.
  • 00:24:21.476 --> 00:24:22.744
  • And before they got finished, you grabbed your things.
  • 00:24:22.744 --> 00:24:25.380
  • You headed for the door
  • 00:24:25.380 --> 00:24:26.715
  • Because you understood the bill was coming.
  • 00:24:26.715 --> 00:24:28.850
  • Because you understand what antics and religion.
  • 00:24:28.850 --> 00:24:31.553
  • But you don't know relationship is.
  • 00:24:31.553 --> 00:24:33.421
  • Relationship stays
  • 00:24:33.421 --> 00:24:34.956
  • And it listens and it endures because that's what love does.
  • 00:24:34.956 --> 00:24:39.194
  • I'm so sick and
  • 00:24:39.194 --> 00:24:40.362
  • Tired of the western us church that has made it about us
  • 00:24:40.362 --> 00:24:43.899
  • And what we want and the things we want to do.
  • 00:24:43.899 --> 00:24:46.401
  • And instead of leaning into the things god desires for us,
  • 00:24:46.401 --> 00:24:50.772
  • We know formulas, but
  • 00:24:51.273 --> 00:24:52.941
  • We don't know freedom.
  • 00:24:52.941 --> 00:24:57.846
  • And if that offends you,
  • 00:24:58.380 --> 00:25:00.015
  • I don't apologize.
  • 00:25:00.015 --> 00:25:07.822
  • Because of faith,
  • 00:25:08.256 --> 00:25:09.824
  • That is a life requires a spirit.
  • 00:25:09.824 --> 00:25:12.894
  • You can't control.
  • 00:25:12.894 --> 00:25:15.997
  • And some of us don't need more information.
  • 00:25:15.997 --> 00:25:20.835
  • We need more surrender.
  • 00:25:20.835 --> 00:25:22.604
  • We need to see what a broken church looks like.
  • 00:25:22.604 --> 00:25:25.907
  • Surrendered to the most high god that says, god,
  • 00:25:25.907 --> 00:25:29.244
  • We are where your spirit is and we don't want to do nothing
  • 00:25:29.244 --> 00:25:32.714
  • Without you.
  • 00:25:32.714 --> 00:25:35.116
  • Well, we're out of time for today.
  • 00:25:35.850 --> 00:25:37.719
  • We're not out of the word of god.
  • 00:25:37.719 --> 00:25:39.287
  • So i want to encourage you to do whatever you can to be
  • 00:25:39.287 --> 00:25:42.190
  • Right back in the same place with the same time next week.
  • 00:25:42.190 --> 00:25:46.094
  • My prayers at this broadcast has been a blessing to you,
  • 00:25:46.094 --> 00:25:48.763
  • And if so, would you prayerfully consider partnering with us?
  • 00:25:48.763 --> 00:25:52.000
  • We've been so blessed
  • 00:25:52.500 --> 00:25:53.835
  • By the letters that we've been getting in.
  • 00:25:53.835 --> 00:25:55.737
  • Specifically, i want to call out
  • 00:25:55.737 --> 00:25:57.072
  • All of my inmates that are watching right now.
  • 00:25:57.072 --> 00:25:59.507
  • The letters that you write, the prayers that you send,
  • 00:25:59.507 --> 00:26:02.344
  • They don't go and read, and we always cover you in prayer.
  • 00:26:02.344 --> 00:26:05.313
  • So i'm grateful
  • 00:26:05.313 --> 00:26:06.247
  • That we get this opportunity
  • 00:26:06.247 --> 00:26:07.749
  • To impact you and spread the gospel of jesus christ to you.
  • 00:26:07.749 --> 00:26:11.152
  • And i'm so thankful for our partners
  • 00:26:11.152 --> 00:26:13.054
  • All around the world

  • That partner with us in helping us and enabling us
  • 00:26:14.155 --> 00:26:17.025
  • To continue to spread the message of jesus christ far
  • 00:26:17.025 --> 00:26:19.294
  • And wide.
  • 00:26:19.294 --> 00:26:20.228
  • Our team is going to throw some information
  • 00:26:20.228 --> 00:26:21.563
  • At the bottom of the screen.
  • 00:26:21.563 --> 00:26:22.897
  • I want you to scan that qr code, call us. send
  • 00:26:22.897 --> 00:26:25.400
  • In that partnership, and allow us to know
