1 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 1: Hey, I'm Isaac Fair. I'm from Simlo, Texas, and I 2 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: wanted to share a quick testimony. I was here for 3 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:19,600 Speaker 1: Jonathan's went to revival in December and I got set 4 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: free and delivered from an addiction of cigarettes. 5 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 2: I smoked since the age of. 6 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: Thirteen and I'm thirty one now, and so I've been 7 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: trying for years to quit. And Jonathan prayed for me, 8 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: and I felt the power of the Holy Spirit come 9 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 1: upon me and just laying there, just feeling his presence, 10 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: it was the most amazing thing. And when I got up, 11 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 1: I was like, and Jonathan said, You'll never smoke another cigarette. 12 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 2: You'll never touch. 13 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: Another cigarette again. And in my head, I was like, 14 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: how does that work. I've tried it, Tom and Tom again. 15 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: I just I believe it, but I just didn't know 16 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: how it would come to pass this time. But I 17 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: walked outside to my truck right after service, and I 18 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: have two packs of cigarettes left in there, and I 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: was like, well, I'm gonna finish those two. I bet 20 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: I'm gonna finish those and then I'll be done. But 21 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: I could not grab a cigarette. 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 2: I couldn't for the lot of me. 23 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: It just did not work. It was so powerful because 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: I had never gone from the age of thirteen to 25 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: the age of thirty, I had never gone even four 26 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: hours without smoking. I was smoking up to three three 27 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,559 Speaker 1: plus packs a day. And so that is all glory 28 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: and honor goes to God. And thank you so much 29 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: to Jonathan for being such a powerful and obedient man 30 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: of Christ and for praying for me. And after that day, 31 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: I have never touched another cigarette again. I had them 32 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: riding with me in the truck for another three months, 33 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: and a friend of mine asked, man, you're done smoking. 34 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: I said, I'll never smoke another cigarette in my life again. 35 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: He said, why do you still have them there? 36 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: I said, they have no power over me anymore. 37 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: They're sitting right there. And tell the Lord tells me 38 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: to throw them out, they'll be sitting there. And three 39 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: months later the Lord said, all right, that's good enough. 40 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: I was just gonna show you they don't have the 41 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: power over you. So praise God and thank you so much, Jonathan. 42 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,839 Speaker 3: We are raising up a family in this church. We're 43 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: raising up a family in Pittsburgh. We're raising up a 44 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: family in Texas that don't just. 45 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 2: Know about God. They know God. 46 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: They've handled his power they've seen his power flow through it. 47 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 3: You're coming out of here today carrying fresh fire, fresh unknowing, 48 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 3: take never to take another backward. Still, this may derail 49 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 3: the message, but put up Romans in the amplified classic 50 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 3: Romans eight thirty. We read it last night. And those 51 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 3: whom he thus for ordained everybody said, that's me he called, 52 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 3: And those whom he called he justified acquitted. 53 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: Everybody say, I'm acquitted. 54 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 3: Now. I want to tell you, if you're ever in 55 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 3: a church service, I give you permission now the consequences 56 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 3: you're gonna have to bear on your own. And so 57 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 3: he says, we're all sinners. I give you permission to 58 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 3: lift you right half and go. Not me. 59 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: I've been acquitted. 60 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: If you got acquitted of a felony, you were charged 61 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 3: with a felony, but then the judge acquitted you, and 62 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 3: somebody called you a felon, would you say yes, I 63 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 3: guess I am. 64 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: No, it was that I've been acquitted. 65 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 3: Why do you claim to be a sinner when the 66 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 3: Bible says that Jesus acquitted and expunged your record, made righteous, 67 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 3: putting them into right standing with himself. 68 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: I mean, know we displease God every day. 69 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: Not me. 70 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 2: I'm in right standing with God. 71 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 3: You got family members that are in right standing with you, 72 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 3: and you've got family members that. 73 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: Are in wrong standing with you, some of you, not everybody. 74 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 3: Apparently, you got family members that if you found out 75 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 3: they were coming over to watch the Stealer again with 76 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 3: you today, you'd be excited. And you have other ones 77 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 3: that said, if you found out they're coming over, you 78 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: tell your family, let's go to Buffalo Wild Wings and 79 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 3: lock the doors. They're not in right standing with you. 80 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 3: But everybody say, I'm in right standing with God and 81 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 3: those whom he justified, he also glorified. Hallelujah. You're not 82 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 3: going to share God's glory when you get to heaven. 83 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 3: He's glorified those whom He called and acquitted. Now, can 84 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 3: you say amen? Hallelujah? Number two? We're all just sinners 85 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 3: saved by grace. How many of you heard that sat 86 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 3: in Corinthians five p. 87 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 2: Seventeen. 88 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 3: So if any man is in Christ, he is a 89 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 3: new creature. The old life is dead. Behold, all things 90 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 3: have become new. Can you say, amen, I'm a sinner 91 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 3: saved by grace. That's not possible. You can't be both 92 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 3: you'd blow up. You're either a sinner or you're saved 93 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 3: by grace. But once you've been saved by grace, the 94 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 3: sinner's not being dealt with. A sinner is dead, and 95 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 3: you are a new creature in Christ. Old things are 96 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 3: passed away. I'd quit calling myself an abuse victim or 97 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 3: a trauma survivor. That person's been dealt with by the 98 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: blood of Jesus, and the me that now lives is 99 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 3: Christ in the flesh and. 100 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 2: The life I live. I live by the faith of 101 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: the Son of God. Can you say, amen? Number three? 102 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: Life is hard? Now? 103 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: Don't everybody better lift their hands to this one? Because 104 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 3: I grew up around Pittsburgh. Life's hard. One guy in 105 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh told me like a real yinser, which I missed 106 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 3: that accent. Hardly anybody has this Chris Beggerley here. See, 107 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 3: he's like the only one left. I love that accent. 108 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 3: I grew up with. It gives me fun memories. But 109 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh loves that one got yinser I was talking to. 110 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 3: He went, if I won the power Ball with my luck, 111 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 3: I'd probably get hit by a bus on the way 112 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 3: to collect it. Pittsburgh goes love self deae uprecating humor, 113 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 3: which is fine, but then it crosses a line with 114 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 3: a lot of people where it's just how's it going? 115 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 3: He's same, Shi t you know, that's the thing it's like. 116 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: So then there's a resistance to the faith message when 117 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 3: some guy's gonna get up in a great pinstriped suit 118 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 3: looking like he's about to stand trial for extortion and 119 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 3: running an a legal gambling operation, comes and tells you 120 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 3: that length that God has good things for you in goodbye. Yeah, 121 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 3: must be nice for you, but it's different from me. 122 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 3: But no, everybody said the word of God works for everybody. 123 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: Now what you believe? Why am I dealing with this? 124 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: Because Satan can't just kill and destroy and steal from 125 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 3: anybody he wants, just like God can't save anybody he wants. 126 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 3: Before God can save you, he is to get you 127 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 3: to believe in your heart and you to confess with 128 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 3: your mouth that Jesus's Lord, because death and life's in 129 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 3: the power of the tongue. 130 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: And then if it works the same way the other way, 131 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 2: the devil has to. 132 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 3: Get you to believe his lies and you to start 133 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 3: speaking his lives before it can work. So what's the 134 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 3: I mean, good God, if you write life, if you 135 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 3: believe life is hard, and that's your viewpoint every morning 136 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 3: when you wake up, just expecting something alias goes wrong. 137 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 3: Just got the alternator fixed breaks will probably go next. 138 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 3: The Bible says the expectation of the righteous will not 139 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 3: be cut off. You start throwing that kind of thing 140 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 3: out of your spirit, it'll start magnetizing the bad things. Well, 141 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 3: how many, No, life's hard? I heard that in Bible. 142 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: College. Ministry is hard. 143 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 3: Everything's hard, marriage is hard, having new children's heart. 144 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 2: You know, the Babel. 145 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: Doesn't say that baby doesn't say he that has children 146 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 3: receives a curse from the Lord. It says children are 147 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 3: a blessing of the Lord. I made up my mind 148 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 3: everything I was going to enter into that God gave me. 149 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 3: I was going to expect a blessing out of it. 150 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 3: I would go to countries to preach and they say, 151 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 3: the people here don't have any money, so. 152 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: You know it's not going to be good for you. 153 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 2: Or states, rural Vermont, rural Iowa. No one here has anything. 154 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: So I know still to this, I know you have 155 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 3: a plane, then you have churches, but you know, I 156 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: wish we could bless you, but we can't. Thankfully for me. 157 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 3: You're not the source of my blessing. The Bible says, 158 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 3: if you return to Me and the tithe and the offering, 159 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 3: see if I won't open the windows of heaven and 160 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 3: pour you out of blessing. That's so great. My blessing 161 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 3: is not connected to the earth's economy. My blessing is 162 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 3: connected to heaven, where moth and russ can't decay what's 163 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 3: been laid up for me. How about you, if you 164 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 3: receive that, go ahead and let the Lord hear your 165 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 3: handclap on this awesome Sunday, and then they'd even take 166 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 3: it further. It's hard serving the Lord, you think, so 167 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 3: then try the opposite.

Does anybody know how much longer till this 348 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 3: fire is built? Paul's gathering the wood to build it. 349 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 3: You have to have a deficiency in your brain to 350 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 3: read the ministry of Paul and think he was a 351 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 3: weak suffering with sickness. 352 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 2: Person. 353 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 3: He's getting beaten, he's getting stoned to death, popping up 354 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 3: out of the rubble and going back to preach. So 355 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 3: if it wasn't sickness, which she tells you clearly it wasn't. 356 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 3: What was the thorn in the flesh told you what 357 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 3: it is a messenger sent from Satan to buffet and 358 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 3: harass me. Do you read about Paul being sick in 359 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 3: the Book of Acts, No, you don't. Do you read 360 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 3: about Paul everywhere he goes and her revival starts breaking out? 361 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 3: Leaders from the Roman government or leaders from the synagogue 362 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 3: coming to kill him. Do you read about men taking 363 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 3: a vow that they won't eat until Paul's dead? Do 364 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 3: you read about him having to get lowered over a 365 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 3: wall by his nephew because they're going to storm the 366 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 3: jail and kill him. 367 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 2: Do you read that, Yes, you do. They were trying to. 368 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 3: Kill him everywhere he went, So he said, because of 369 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 3: the abundance of revelation, there was a messenger sent from 370 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 3: Satan that stirred people up to harass and buffet me. 371 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 3: So I could never get proud. He wasn't doing a 372 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 3: tour of Roman talk shows. They were trying to kill 373 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 3: him everywhere he went. 374 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 2: But it wasn't sickness. So you say, well, what about that? 375 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 2: What about it? 376 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 3: Jesus didn't die to alleviate our persecutions. That's what people 377 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 3: get confused about with me. They think because I preach 378 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 3: preuss those guys preach prosperity. But they never mentioned persecution, 379 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 3: just mentioned it. I'm gonna mention it some more. 380 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 2: In this length. 381 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 3: You will have trouble, You will have trials, You will 382 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 3: have tribulation, but be of good. 383 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 2: Cheer, for I have overcome the world. 384 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 3: You know, scripturally, scripturally, I can't pray, Father, make all 385 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 3: of this persecution, Make the moon township message board that 386 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 3: attacks me disappear, make everyone like me in this whole township. 387 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: Oh Lord in Jesus' name, doesn't work that way, Lord, 388 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 3: make everyone stop giving our church trouble to build the 389 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 3: church doesn't work that way. 390 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 2: But what He will give you is, though there is 391 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 2: a position, God will. 392 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 3: Always craft a custom made plan that puts you out 393 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 3: on top. Because you can't curse what God has blessed. 394 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 3: I call you blessed Jesus' name. Number five. God makes 395 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 3: you sick to teach you Isaiah fifty three five Isaya 396 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 3: fifty three five. But he was wounded for our transgressions. 397 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 2: Who was he wounded for? 398 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 3: You know? 399 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 2: He wasn't making like a vacation. 400 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 3: Trip to Jerusalem. And always had wanted to die on 401 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 3: the cross and see what it was like. Everything Jesus 402 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 3: did was done for us. Every religious leader was doing 403 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 3: what they did to try to get to heaven. If 404 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 3: you read their writings, they're men that wanted to get 405 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 3: favor with God, carry out a mission, and have God 406 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 3: bless them. 407 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 2: Jesus is God. He already lived in heaven and left heaven. 408 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 3: He didn't take stripes on his back for his sickness, 409 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 3: he didn't have any. But he was wounded for our transgressions. 410 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 3: He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities. The chest 411 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 3: of our peace and well being was upon him. Everybody 412 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 3: say peace and well being, and by his stripes we 413 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 3: are healed and made whole. Yes, But that's talking about 414 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 3: spiritual healing, is it? Matthew eight sixteen and seventeen. When 415 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 3: evening came, they brought to him many who were under 416 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 3: the power of demons, and he drove out the spirits 417 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 3: with a word. I must say, under the power of demons, 418 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 3: there is demon power. But I want to tell you something. 419 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 3: The power of God breaks the hold on it. 420 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 2: There's a lady. 421 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 3: I won't say it what church, I will say.

Don't wave your hand. 423 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 3: When we started the church, she was super dejected, and 424 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 3: I understood why my son is in his early twenties. 425 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 2: I raised him in church. 426 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 3: He's living with an older man in a homosexual relationship. 427 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 2: He hates church, he hates me and won't. 428 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 3: Come to church. I said, all right, let's pray, and 429 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 3: we prayed. Then she'd come back. You know, can I 430 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 3: I said, we already prayed. God hurt us, give it 431 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 3: a few days, the Lord hurt us, give it some 432 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 3: time to work. Can you say, amen? Then come back 433 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 3: another time to preach. And there's a young man sitting 434 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 3: next to her like this. I could tell he was 435 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: trying not to like me as hard as he could. 436 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 3: And then she said, this is my son. He agreed 437 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 3: to come. I said, praise the Lord. Well, then she 438 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 3: comes up to me after that service. You know he 439 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 3: agreed to come, but he left two thirds of the 440 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 3: way and said he he you know, he needed to go. 441 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 3: I just wish he would have said, you know number 442 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 3: one and I probays should leave this part out too. 443 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 3: I would say ninety percent of people the blockage to 444 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 3: their their miracle is them that supposedly is believing for 445 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 3: the miracle, because you're so freaking not you, no one 446 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 3: here knowing forth just general people.

When he had, by offering himself, accomplished our 482 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 3: cleansing of sins and riddance of guilt, he sat down 483 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 3: at the right hand of the Divine Majesty on high. 484 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 2: I kind of could have. 485 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 3: Broke that up better. Let me see Hebrews one three 486 00:24:55,440 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 3: in the New Living Translation. Whoever brought that scripture up 487 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 3: was the same one in charge of making the abbreviation 488 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 3: for ID. The I stands for I and The D 489 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 3: stands for I dentification. The son radiates God's own glory 490 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 3: and expresses the very character of God. And he sustains 491 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 3: everything by the mighty power of his command. When he 492 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 3: had cleanses from our sins, he sat down in the 493 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 3: place of honor. 494 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 2: At the right hand of the majestic God in heaven. 495 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 3: That scripture tells you everything about Christ represents God's will exactly. 496 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 2: Do you remember Jesus said, I. 497 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 3: Only do what I see who do, And I only 498 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 3: say what what I see my father, what I hear 499 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 3: my father say. So if you're going to make a 500 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 3: doctrine about healing, then you better back it up with 501 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 3: the life and ministry of Jesus. So if you can 502 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 3: find me somebody that said, Jesus, I want to see 503 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 3: and he said, too bad, then you got a case 504 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 3: if you could. If you could find me a place 505 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 3: where somebody said, hey, i've an issue blood, I want 506 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 3: to be healed. I'm gonna grab the hem of your garment. 507 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 3: And he said, well, you're not getting healed, and I'm 508 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 3: gonna charge you for dry cleaning for getting. 509 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 2: Dust on my robe. 510 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 3: No, everybody that came to Jesus to be healed. He 511 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 3: healed them all, and Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, 512 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 3: today and forever. Hellelo Jah, say it out loud. I'm 513 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 3: not religiously brainwashed. I'm New Testament Todd. Let me see 514 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 3: Matthew eight sixteen. That evening many of them possessed people 515 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 3: are brought to Jesus. He cast out evil spirits with 516 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 3: a simple command, and he healed all the sick. 517 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: Now gets stronger. 518 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 3: This fulfilled the word of the Lord through the prophet Isaiah. 519 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 3: I believe that spiritual sickness is well. You got a 520 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: problem there because he wasn't healing people spiritually. The Bible 521 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 3: says they brought to him people that were under the 522 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 3: power of demons, and people that had sickness, physical sickness, lepers, fevers. 523 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 3: In fact, if we read the first fifteen verses, it 524 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: tells you lepers paralysis or a palsy, something that affected 525 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 3: the central nervous system. 526 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: And then Peter's mother in law had a fever. 527 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 3: Then when they get healed, the crowd found out he 528 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 3: was there and brought all their sick not spiritually. 529 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 2: They weren't bringing you. 530 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 3: This guy's not really reading his Bible every day. Could 531 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 3: you heal him. No, they brought it to him physically sick, 532 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 3: and he not only healed them. Then the Bible says 533 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 3: it's a doctrine. He did this to fulfill what was 534 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 3: spoken through the prophet Isaiah, that he took my sicknesses 535 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 3: and removed my diseases. 536 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 2: Now, I'm gonna tell you something. 537 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 3: Since the same blood covers your sickness, that covers your sin, 538 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 3: then that's why when people start getting weak on salvation, 539 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 3: they get weak on healing or vice versa. But we 540 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 3: don't believe that God heals everybody. And you also don't 541 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 3: believe that your sins are forgiven. That's why you're still 542 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 3: saying I'm a sinner. That's why you're still saying I'm sick. 543 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 3: But let me tell you something. The sinner is dead 544 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 3: and the sick man's dead, and the new me's been 545 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 3: raised to life with Christ, and by his stripes, i 546 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 3: am healed. The cross purchase my salvation, and the stripes 547 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 3: purchase my healing.
