Jesus already told you don't hide the light 23 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: under a bushel. No, you put it up on the mountaintop. 24 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: You put it out for all to see. That God 25 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: may be glorified. Well, how do I do this and 26 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: why does it make a difference. Today we're going to 27 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: talk about you, the church and God's plan. You don't 28 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: want to miss it. So stay tuned as I get 29 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: ready to preach the word of God. The Rapture is 30 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: going to happen at some point. The second Coming of Jesus, 31 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: I believe is going. 32 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: To happen at some point. 33 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: Sped up after the Civil War, was going from an 34 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: activism point of I'm an image bearer in the earth 35 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: to an escapism mentality we just won't out of here, 36 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: and we've carried out and escapism. Now, that's not to 37 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,119 Speaker 1: deny the second coming of the Lord. That could be 38 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: next week, or that could be in ten thousand years 39 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: from now. No, ma'am, but the Father knows the time. 40 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: I'm not even to act like Jesus is well. 41 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: Put it this way. 42 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: I'm to be prepared as if Jesus is coming back 43 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: right now. Okay, I'm to be prepared. So I'm not 44 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: to be a foolish version. I'm to have all in 45 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: my lamb, but I'm not to anticipate like I'm not 46 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: getting the word out right. I'm not to act as 47 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: of it, like, oh, I'm not going to do anything 48 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: because Jesus is coming back, So I'm not just to 49 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: show up on Sunday. Oh Jesus is coming back next week. Well, 50 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: if he does, praise God, I mean I am ready, 51 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: let's go train come home. But if he doesn't, I'm 52 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: to be the image bearer in this earth to bring 53 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: the Gospel around the world, to push back against the 54 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: forces of darkness, to have a responsibility to give an 55 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: account of my life so that I build the Kingdom 56 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: of God, which is not in heaven. 57 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 2: But is here in this earth, which is where I'm 58 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 2: going to get you to. 59 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: So if I just waste my life, oh well, Jesus 60 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: coming back, I don't get to heaven because I do 61 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: know theology. 62 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: But boy, what did I do for God? 63 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: Sit in my little corner of a safe place because 64 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: I was afraid somebody was going to talk about me, 65 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: because somebody told me I couldn't do it because I'm 66 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: a woman, because somebody said I can't do it because 67 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: I got pregnant out of wedlock, or I had a 68 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: testimony different than your Theresa, but like yours that I 69 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: sexually and physically abused that I didn't grow up in church, 70 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: that my father committed suicide. The prognosis was I would 71 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: turn out like this, this, and this. But God, when 72 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: I got in the work, told me something different. And 73 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: I decided to believe the word of the Lord that 74 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: it had enough power to transform a life, and that 75 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: the prognosis was not based on even a psychologist or 76 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: a psychiatrist or man's opinion. 77 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 2: But based on what God had said about me. 78 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: And once I found out what God said about me, 79 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: then I was ready to go through whatever battle I 80 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: had to go through and whatever I would face. So 81 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: is our Christian worldview large enough to include God in 82 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: everything that we do, that even in the darkest places 83 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: they will be transformed. And I can tell you there 84 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,119 Speaker 1: are dark places. Media can be a very dark place. 85 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: Politics can be a very dark place. 86 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: Come on. Entertainment can be a dark place. 87 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: Financial systems, medical systems, of there are a lot of 88 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: dark places that are world systems. But can we have 89 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: a biblical view to change that darkness to be light 90 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: as we are called to do, because that's what God 91 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: has called us to do in this earth. So you're 92 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: going to have to shake off the lethargy in order 93 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: to fulfill the covenant of God that was established by 94 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: God with Adam to dominate the earth in every possible way. 95 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: You go, oh, no, here she goes. 96 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: You mean we have to do that absolutely well. Adam 97 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: lost it, yes, but Jesus regained it for you. So 98 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: when Jesus regained it, he said, let man have dominion. 99 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: So although the principles of God are going to clash 100 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: with our current culture, there is a stirring in the 101 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: spirit by God and his church. Come on for his church, 102 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: For the church is the only And when I say 103 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: the church, I'm talking about the blood bought Church of 104 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. I'm talking about the local church, the world 105 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: wide church. Because the local church is a many member. 106 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: Just like the people are many members of a local church, 107 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: the local church are a many members of a laws 108 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: larger body called the Bride of Christ. 109 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 2: Are you with me? Because all this fits together. 110 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: So there is a stirring by the spirit of God 111 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: in his church, a remnant people that I believe are 112 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: rising with a holy boldness, with something that burns on 113 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 1: the inside of you that says I was born for 114 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: more than just this, I was born for more than 115 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: just to survive. I was born to be a world changer. 116 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: I was born to make history. I was born to 117 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: stand for righteousness. I was born to stand for truth. 118 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: And God knew exactly what nation i'd be in, exactly 119 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: what time I. 120 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: Would be in. 121 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: Come on, wherever you are around the world, watching exactly 122 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: what your background would be, exactly what you would do. 123 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: And you, as a child of God, are chosen to 124 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: bring forth change and be an image bearer in the earth. 125 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: Today. God has called you. God has chosen you. 126 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: You're called to be an ambassador, a delegated representative of 127 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: cultural and social change based on a biblical worldview. And 128 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: I say that very intentionally, very intentionally, because most people 129 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: there'll be certain denominations that will call it a social gospel. 130 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: There'll be certain things that will say social activism, There'll 131 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: be certain things to say social transformation. I call it 132 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: a biblical worldview because if it's not based on the Bible, 133 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: then it's wrong. If it's not based on Scripture, then 134 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: it's out of alignment. 135 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: And you can reconcile the two. And that's where I'm 136 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 2: going to take you today. 137 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: The importance of the church because Jesus commissioned us to 138 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: go into all the world preaching, proclaiming the good News. 139 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean just simply theologically being able to break 140 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: down and say, Eric, let's have a Bible study. 141 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: That's great. If we have a Bible. 142 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: Study with Whitney and at our home and we break 143 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: down the word and we constantly are being fed. You 144 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: can't get that just on a Sunday morning. 145 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 2: I don't have enough time. 146 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: I'm already looking at the clock to hope be able 147 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: to get through. So I get you the meat and 148 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: the substance. You've got to constantly let this word be 149 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: getting on. 150 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: The inside of you. 151 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: You're responsible for your knowledge of the Word of God. 152 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: You're responsible to be able to rightly divide. You're responsible 153 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: to take this word of God on the inside to 154 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: teach your family, to train up your children. 155 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 2: In the way that they should go. 156 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: But Jesus commanded us to preach the gospel, and that 157 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: doesn't just mean to go out and say listen, there's 158 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people I'm sorry. I mean, if their 159 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: heart felt and they mean well, praise God for them, 160 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: passing out their tracks and getting on a bullhorn.

And whether your life was 188 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: a training mark like mine, or whether your life was 189 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: the elder brother. 190 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 2: Who thinks he had no problem. 191 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: You're full of anger because the prodigal son took all 192 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: the inheritance and the pigspin went out with all the women, 193 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: and you're mad. And now you're sitting here full of bitterness. 194 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: You still have an issue even if you sat in church, 195 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: because you were like, why didn't they recognize me? Why 196 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: didn't they give me? Now you why do we always 197 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: have to do pastor appreciation? Why can't we do member appreciation? 198 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 2: Why didn't I get this? 199 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: All? 200 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 2: Right? We all got problems. 201 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: We all got some kind of issue that God cleaned up, 202 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: whether it was more hidden or more obvious. 203 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 5: God is a good God, and God has a plan 204 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 5: for all of our lives, and all. 205 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 6: Of us are called to be image bearers and to 206 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 6: proclaim that good news. Whether it's He brought me out 207 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 6: of bitterness when I grew up in the church, or 208 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 6: whether it's he brought me out of a pig pin. 209 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: When I wasted all of my daddy's inheritance. We all 210 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: have a testimony to show this world that God is 211 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: a good God, that God is a loving God. 212 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 2: So what does this mean? 213 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 7: This means that the church, the church, the church, local church, 214 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 7: the church, the church impacts every sect of society. 215 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: It's going to ruffle some people's feathers. But from business 216 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: to finance, to government, to politics, to arts, to entertainment, 217 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 1: to technology, to medical to nano. Come on, don't make 218 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: me get into to biotech. I could keep on going 219 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: with you to every aspect of society. You are to 220 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: be the influencer. So I say this often. Okay, why 221 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 1: is it that the church relegates themselves to the little 222 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: places of playing it safe? When you get a man 223 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: like Steve Jobson and that how many of you. 224 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 2: Have an Apple phone? 225 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: Hold up your Apple phone, or at least hold up 226 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: your hand right now, look right there, ninety percent of 227 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: this congregation or an iPad? 228 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 2: Where do y'all the rest of them? And what do 229 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 2: you own? A burner? Foone?

So ah, u's got our 232 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: Apple phone? All right? 233 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: But who did that Steve job Now I'm not I'm 234 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: not dissing Steve, okay, but he was a Buddhist he 235 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: was a Buddhist, which means he believed in meditation, and 236 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: Buddhism is not even truly a religion. Buddhism is not 237 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: a religion, okay. And he is a Buddhist, he practiced 238 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: certain principles, and yet he was one of the most 239 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: innovative people. 240 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 2: But I have the mind of Christ. 241 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: If you aren't hearing me, I have the mind of 242 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: Christ Philippians too. 243 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: Five. 244 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: Now I could say something, some thing's real bold right now, 245 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: but it would give me probably a whole lot of heat. 246 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 2: All right, So I have the mind of Christ Philippians too. Five. 247 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: I am seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus. You 248 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: have the mind that price as a believer. You are 249 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: seated in heavenly places with God Almighty, who stepped out 250 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: on nothing and created everything, including you.

Pray about it and see 294 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: what God says to you, now, let's get back into 295 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: the Word. So as our society has turned our heads 296 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: towards humanism, we must as the Church, fight back. We 297 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: must reprogram ourselves through the Word of God with Kingdom truth. 298 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: He promised that if we go forth as image bearers, 299 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: then signs and wonders would accompany us and confirm His 300 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: word that has been spoken through us March chapter sixteen, 301 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: verse fifteen through twenty. So I'm preaching this for you 302 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: to understand how you fit in the church, because if 303 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: you think the church is coming and building a building 304 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: and showing up on Sunday morning and getting a good choir, 305 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: you're a dinosaur. 306 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 2: That's gone over clouds. Moved on. 307 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: Understanding the importance of who you are and how you 308 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: have to be connected to the local church, the body 309 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: of Christ, and how you're a part of something that 310 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: is bigger than you, and how it plays out in 311 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: your everyday, ordinary life, and to create Kingdom culture. So 312 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: when Jesus prayed for his disciples and all who would follow, 313 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: he did not ask the Father to take us out 314 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 1: of the world. In fact, he said the exact opposite. 315 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: He said in John chapter seventeen, verse fourteen through eighteen, 316 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: he said, but protect them from the evil one through 317 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 1: the word of truth. He didn't say take them out. 318 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: In fact, he said, I'm gonna send. 319 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: You as sheep among wolves. 320 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 2: Wolves. Wolves devour guys. Now loving God who loves me and. 321 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: I know loves me and has a good plan for me, 322 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: who I know says, hey, little sheep be, come here, 323 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: Come here, she be. I'm gonna nurture you. 324 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be with you. 325 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: But this is not all about you.

Let me give you an example. 345 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: Through the Apostle Paul that you read in your New 346 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: Testament two thirds of his teaching. Yeah, he was shiftwrecked, 347 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: he was beaten, he was stone, he was put in prison. 348 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 2: In fact, Paula, the things. 349 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: That you think are so horrible, let me show you 350 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 1: what I allowed them to go through. Peter was crucified 351 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: upside down. He was in prison, but the church prayed 352 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 1: and he got out. Paul and silas they were at 353 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: the midnight hour, and chapter sixteen, Oh Stephen was stone 354 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: for the glory. 355 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 2: John was boiled and. 356 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: Oil and then sent to the isle of patness and isolation. 357 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: But he was on the Lord's day in the spirit 358 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: that he wrote some of the greatest revelation that would 359 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: ever be released. 360 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 2: To my body. 361 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 1: Do you think that you're going to get to be 362 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: an image bearer and sit back and this is all 363 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: about what you get in life and not what you 364 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: give in life. Do you, really, Paula, think this is 365 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: about you. This is about me sending you as an 366 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: image bearer to bring forth who I am. 367 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: In the earth, to show. 368 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: This world, because the kingdoms of this world must become the. 369 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 2: Kingdoms of our God. 370 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: Do you think the Evil One's going to give up 371 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: the little bit of territory? 372 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 2: Oh, I shouldn't say a little bit. 373 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: The territory that he has. You think he's just gonna 374 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: release that? 375 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 2: No way. 376 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: But I didn't pray for you not to go through storms. 377 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: I prayed that in the midst of you going into 378 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: this world, you would be protected from the Evil One. 379 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: He doesn't get the final word. I get the final word. 380 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 1: I'm Alpha and I'm Omega, So I'm twenty four to one. 381 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: The earth belongs to the Lord, everything in it, and 382 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 1: a whole who live on it. When we choose to 383 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: separate the sacred from the secular, and what do I 384 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: mean by that, I'm not talking about theologically, I'm talking 385 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: about physically. So theologically I absolutely separate the sacred God's 386 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: word from humanism the secular. But when we choose physically 387 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: to separate the sacred the church from the secular the world, 388 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: stating that our Christianity is only a private religious system 389 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: rather than a real relationship with God through his son 390 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, which holds a biblical worldview and a mandate 391 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: on each one of our lives. Then we miss out 392 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: on our man date, we miss out on our mantle, 393 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: We miss out on the blessings God has for us. 394 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: We miss out on the harvest that God has for himself. 395 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: Because it's illegal for God to do anything in the 396 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: earth unless he partners with someone. If not, God would 397 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 1: have just come down and solved it all. But he 398 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: shows us over and over that we cold labor with Christ, 399 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: that we are in partnership with him. For him to 400 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: even bring his own son in his own son, he 401 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: had to find a virgin woman. He had to find 402 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: married for him to even bring his son. Why couldn't 403 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: he have just drop Deity in the earth, because he 404 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: had to have his blood untainted, sinless, spotless. That's why 405 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: she was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit in this virgin 406 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: girl that would carry forth the plan of God and say, 407 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: be it unto me according in harmony with your word. 408 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm in harmony with you, though I could lose my 409 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: life over this because under the Mosaic law I should 410 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: be stolen. Therefore, God already had a plan go down 411 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: to Elizabeth's house, because when you get to Elizabeth, She's 412 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: going to recognize and give you a salutation and understand 413 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: that what you're caring is not just you, but what 414 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: you're caring is a God assignment. What you're carrying is 415 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: birth by Me. You see, You've got to be with 416 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: people that can discern what you're carrying. You've got to 417 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 1: be planted in a tribe. You know, tribes because you 418 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: can locate your language, because not all. 419 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 2: Churches are the same. 420 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: You got to be planted in the tribe that you 421 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: can locate your language. And you understand, this is my assignment. 422 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: This is where I'm gonna get nurtured. This is someone 423 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: that understands what I carry. This is someone who gets salutation. 424 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: This is someone that rejoices at my John when I 425 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: rejoice at their Jesus, because I understand mind John, though 426 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: it's not Jesus is going to prepare the way. So 427 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: what I carry is just as important as what she carries, 428 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: because she's carrying the Messiah. But I'm carrying the one 429 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: that prepares the way. And if the way doesn't get prepared, 430 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 1: then the Messiah doesn't get the path. You aren't hearing 431 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, which what I'm telling you is everything 432 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: you do, every one of us has a specific role. 433 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: That's why Shade shouldn't get. 434 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 2: Jealous of Joy. 435 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: Joy should get jealous of Eva, shouldn't get jealous of God. 436 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: Todd shouldn't get jealous of Annah. Anna shouldn't get jealous 437 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: of It. 438 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 2: Should just go on and on, We should go. 439 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: We compliment each other, we don't compete with each other 440 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: because we are one body. We are one bride, though 441 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: we are many members. I pray you enjoyed the Word today. 442 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: Remember God has a plan and you're part of that plan. 443 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: And as such, would you stand with me and hold 444 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: my hand so that we can continue to advance the 445 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: Kingdom of God.
