1
00:00:01,700 --> 00:00:03,200
It's great to see everyone here 
tonight. 

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,400
I'm certainly glad to be here. 
Had a great day with Alan and 

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:12,400
Darrell enjoyed Everton, Miss, 
Judy, and Dylan. 

4
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,800
I'm certainly glad to be here. 
Glad Miss Gail to don't wanna 

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,400
leave her out, but we've had a 
great day. 

6
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:21,500
I hope you've had a great day 
and we're able to close it and 

7
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:24,300
worship to you. 
Now, the majority of the rest of

8
00:00:24,300 --> 00:00:27,600
the California's, watch the 
Lakers game, but I presume most 

9
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,600
of you have TiVo. 
So all is well. 

10
00:00:30,100 --> 00:00:31,600
But I'm glad you're here 
tonight. 

11
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,700
Somebody, I joked and said, 
well, we might need to put them 

12
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:35,400
on the prayer list. 
The way things were looking. 

13
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,300
Somebody said I want a jet but 
I'm just kidding. 

14
00:00:38,300 --> 00:00:41,700
I like to, I like for people to 
smile, but I'll tell you this, 

15
00:00:42,100 --> 00:00:44,500
The Smiling that I want you to 
do, is because you're in the 

16
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:46,900
kingdom of God, and you're safe,
and your child's. 

17
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:52,100
You're God's child in Matthew 7,
the scariest words in all the 

18
00:00:52,100 --> 00:00:54,100
Bible. 
Jesus, if you can imagine it for

19
00:00:54,108 --> 00:00:58,700
just, a moment is reclining. 
The Bible said, we often think 

20
00:00:58,700 --> 00:01:01,000
of him sitting down. 
He's reclining. 

21
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,400
He's on a little Knoll a little 
Mount there, weren't big 

22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,400
mountains like you have in this 
area or this country around here

23
00:01:10,100 --> 00:01:12,900
but he's sitting on a Knoll and 
people began to kind of fill in 

24
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:15,800
around him and you can just 
imagine I think about a 

25
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,300
principle that would address the
whole elementary school and all 

26
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:22,500
these kids, all these people are
just kind of filtering around 

27
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:26,100
and they're following him 
because remember, he is healing 

28
00:01:26,100 --> 00:01:29,200
people now. 
I'm not talking about the fake 

29
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,700
miracle. 
Is like you see on TV, you know 

30
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:36,400
how no those are fake Miracles 
as any preacher that love people

31
00:01:36,900 --> 00:01:40,400
and wanted to help people and 
had this power would go shut 

32
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,100
down children's hospitals and 
would get people up out of 

33
00:01:43,100 --> 00:01:46,400
hospital beds and out of cancer 
institutes, and you name it. 

34
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,000
That's what would happen. 
Well, that's not what happens. 

35
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,100
Is it modern day? 
What Jesus did do that. 

36
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:55,900
Jesus could restore people, 
Jesus would go and every city 

37
00:01:55,900 --> 00:01:57,800
and Village. 
And when he would show, Glad 

38
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,700
Tidings of the kingdom of God, 
it was Amazing people would 

39
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:04,500
listen to him and they would 
hear the voice of one that spoke

40
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:06,800
to them with authority and 
power. 

41
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:11,300
Not as the self proclaiming self
praising scribes, that love 

42
00:02:11,300 --> 00:02:13,400
nothing more than to hear 
themselves talk. 

43
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,100
If you've ever sat in very many 
college classes, new forever 

44
00:02:17,100 --> 00:02:19,300
will hear people. 
Sometimes that just like to hear

45
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:24,100
themselves talk, when Jesus 
talked at MIT something when 

46
00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:27,200
Jesus came into your city and 
Village, it was not to have some

47
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,100
sort of a show But sadly, it 
turned into that. 

48
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:35,000
From a lot of people, it was the
message of the hour. 

49
00:02:35,500 --> 00:02:38,500
It was the message of Salvation.
It was the message of 

50
00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:40,400
repentance. 
It was the message of the 

51
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,500
kingdom is coming. 
It was a powerful. 

52
00:02:43,500 --> 00:02:46,200
It was an important, it was 
urgent. 

53
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,600
And so he sits down, he's tired,
he's just like you and me. 

54
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,500
You work all day. 
You talk to people all day. 

55
00:02:53,500 --> 00:02:55,000
You try to work with people all 
day. 

56
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,300
It's one of the most stressful 
things you'll ever do, and he 

57
00:02:58,300 --> 00:02:59,900
sits down and he begins to 
teach. 

58
00:02:59,900 --> 00:03:04,700
And in one 30-minute sitting you
can read The Sermon on the Mount

59
00:03:04,700 --> 00:03:07,800
as we call it, it just happened 
to be when Jesus was sitting 

60
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,200
down and talked them. 
Some of the greatest Christian 

61
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,600
teachings, that will ever be 
written ever known some of the 

62
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,000
greatest teachings of all time 
because Cuz they were written by

63
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,500
the creator of the universe 
there, a catalyst in creation, 

64
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:23,500
according to Colossians chapter 
one. 

65
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:28,900
So, he sits down to speak and he
opens up with some very 

66
00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:31,800
important. 
Things blessed are the pure in 

67
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,500
heart. 
For example, they shall see God 

68
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,600
and on and on he went, he taught
them things about how to live in

69
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,500
the Kingdom. 
He taught them about how the 

70
00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:45,400
life of the Pharisees and the 
Jewish religion had really 

71
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,500
fostered a whore. 
Both sentiment of what religion 

72
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:53,000
was really about. 
It was not as they had it, it 

73
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,900
was changed. 
And I want to tell you, I don't 

74
00:03:54,900 --> 00:03:58,000
know anybody today that can look
at the teachings of Jesus and 

75
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,200
not say that wherever Jesus 
taught, whatever, he talked. 

76
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,800
He it was like he Jesus 
literally as it were sailed 

77
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,600
around an island and the island 
was man, all of us and wherever 

78
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,300
he landed, that's what was 
needed. 

79
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,800
And that's the purpose of 
teaching, the word of God. 

80
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,800
You Preach what's needed. 
Well, Jesus taught, the needs of

81
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,000
the the hour both then, and for 
now, and he said this passage in

82
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,800
Matthew 7, listen to what he 
said. 

83
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,900
The scariest words to me from 
the mouth of the Savior, not 

84
00:04:28,900 --> 00:04:33,800
everyone that says to me, Lord 
Lord shall enter the kingdom of 

85
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:40,700
heaven, but he who does the will
of My Father, which is in 

86
00:04:40,700 --> 00:04:43,300
heaven. 
Many will say, to me in that 

87
00:04:43,300 --> 00:04:46,500
day. 
Lord, Lord, have we not 

88
00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:52,500
prophesied in your name, cast 
out demons in your name and 

89
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:55,200
done. 
Many wonders in your name, verse

90
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,300
23 of Matthew 7. 
Then will I declare to them? 

91
00:05:00,700 --> 00:05:08,100
I never knew you. 
Depart from me you who practice?

92
00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:13,100
Lawlessness. 
Of all the passages in the 

93
00:05:13,100 --> 00:05:14,900
Bible. 
That one gives me, great heart 

94
00:05:14,900 --> 00:05:17,600
palpitations and I'll tell you 
why. 

95
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,100
You know, in our culture today 
in the American culture, if 

96
00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:25,500
you're sincere, then you're in 
good shape with American 

97
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:26,900
culture. 
That's how it goes. 

98
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,900
That's how we are. 
Well, he tried she tried Well, 

99
00:05:32,900 --> 00:05:39,800
let me tell you something. 
Don't just try do it, don't just

100
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:46,100
make your own attempt and create
your own experience as modern 

101
00:05:46,100 --> 00:05:50,100
self-help and psychologists and 
pop psychologist, say create 

102
00:05:50,100 --> 00:05:53,400
your own experience and I 
understand you got to go out and

103
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,700
work hard and sometimes take 
care of yourself and do some 

104
00:05:56,700 --> 00:05:58,800
things that that's not what I'm 
talking about. 

105
00:06:00,300 --> 00:06:05,200
Jesus created The Experience. 
We're supposed to have. 

106
00:06:05,300 --> 00:06:08,700
God has a will for the kind of 
experience we're supposed to 

107
00:06:08,700 --> 00:06:10,400
have. 
And if we have any other 

108
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,000
experience, it's an experience 
that leads us away from Jesus. 

109
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:15,900
And that's what he's talking 
about here. 

110
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,700
A lot of people have a religious
experience, but that experience 

111
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:23,900
leads them away from doing the 
will of God, Do you know what 

112
00:06:23,900 --> 00:06:26,800
Decon rat? 
Poison is sure you do. 

113
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,400
If you got those little critters
that make your wife, jump up on 

114
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,400
the chair and then straddle you 
like a baby. 

115
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,700
As you carry her out to the car.
Not putting her feet on the 

116
00:06:34,700 --> 00:06:36,100
ground. 
You'll know what Decon rat 

117
00:06:36,100 --> 00:06:39,300
poison is. 
It's a self-help agent to keep 

118
00:06:39,300 --> 00:06:43,400
your wife and your house. 
You know what Decon rat poison 

119
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,800
really is. 
It's 99 point. 

120
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,100
Oh, five or ninety nine point. 
Let's see that a 9.95. 

121
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,800
I believe it is. 
Non-harmful to anybody. 

122
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,800
It's good stuff like corn and 
it's a mixture of all kinds of 

123
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:06,100
components and some sticky glue 
type stuff rats, just love it. 

124
00:07:07,500 --> 00:07:09,600
Do you know what it is? 
That gets the rat. 

125
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:14,800
It's that .05 of that 
16-cylinder word that none of us

126
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,300
can pronounce that some geek, 
put a lab coat on. 

127
00:07:17,300 --> 00:07:19,400
Look through a microscope and 
said, that's what it is. 

128
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:24,500
That's what kills the rack, not 
the good stuff and tonight if I 

129
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:28,600
come into your life and I tell 
you, follow Jesus, love Jesus, 

130
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,500
look what he's done for you and 
you grab a hold of that and you 

131
00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:34,600
start living the life and then 
you get to a road blocking you. 

132
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,200
So you know what the Bible says 
this, But I don't really want to

133
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,400
do that and I say to you that's 
alright. 

134
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,500
Don't worry about it. 
Just do the best you can just do

135
00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:48,400
what you just try hard. 
And it'll all work out. 

136
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,200
Jesus completely says, his not 
going to work out. 

137
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,500
It's not going to just work out.
When you pick up this book, 

138
00:08:01,300 --> 00:08:05,200
Jesus stained every page with 
blood. 

139
00:08:07,700 --> 00:08:13,900
Every page matters. 
The holy spirit filled men and 

140
00:08:13,900 --> 00:08:17,600
spent their lives preaching and 
writing down this word. 

141
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,600
So you can have it in 2010 as 
you sit in an air-conditioned 

142
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,700
building in 100 degrees outside 
and listen to this gospel 

143
00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:26,900
preached in a land, that does 
not have any laws that prohibit 

144
00:08:26,900 --> 00:08:31,200
us from worshipping publicly and
preaching on TV and radio. 

145
00:08:34,299 --> 00:08:36,700
People gave their lives for the 
words of this book. 

146
00:08:38,900 --> 00:08:41,900
And so Jesus made a premium on 
it when he said not every one 

147
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:44,200
that saith unto me Lord, Lord 
shall enter the kingdom of 

148
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,500
heaven, but he that, doeth, the 
will of My Father, which is in 

149
00:08:48,500 --> 00:08:50,500
heaven. 
I want to ask you tonight. 

150
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,000
Are you doing the will of the 
Father in heaven? 

151
00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:58,400
Because tonight I'm going to 
invite you to the kingdom of 

152
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,500
God. 
I'm going to invite you to come 

153
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,600
to the kingdom for just a little
while. 

154
00:09:05,300 --> 00:09:08,700
And know what it is to say. 
I'm doing the will of the 

155
00:09:08,700 --> 00:09:10,700
father. 
Before we go further, we have a 

156
00:09:10,700 --> 00:09:13,200
great privilege to pray at this 
time. 

157
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,800
Throughout the teachings of 
Jesus in Matthew 5, 6. 

158
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,500
And 7, I want you to understand.
Jesus was teaching the people, 

159
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,700
the difference, and what life 
would be like, in the Kingdom. 

160
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,600
He taught about seeking God. 
He taught about seeking the 

161
00:09:29,608 --> 00:09:31,800
right things. 
He taught about changing 

162
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,700
people's lives. 
He taught about changing their 

163
00:09:33,700 --> 00:09:36,300
motives. 
He put motive, he put hard on 

164
00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:40,300
trial, he put our thoughts on 
trial but at the end of it all 

165
00:09:40,300 --> 00:09:44,100
the reality of our life is that 
if we're going to be pleasing 

166
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,300
and come to the King of Kings, 
Us and Lord of lords. 

167
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,700
We are going to have to be a 
people that are willing to obey 

168
00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:52,500
him. 
Three things that I intend to 

169
00:09:52,508 --> 00:09:55,800
prove throughout this and I will
list them real quickly. 

170
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:03,600
God's will God's will. 
Is number one, we all 

171
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,700
understand. 
What number one is just a little

172
00:10:05,700 --> 00:10:07,700
while. 
The Lakers are the Celtics are 

173
00:10:07,700 --> 00:10:10,400
all going to lift their finger 
and they're going to say number 

174
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,000
one, whoever wins it is going to
say number one. 

175
00:10:13,100 --> 00:10:17,600
Well, God says, in our lives, he
wants to be number one and I 

176
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,900
want to go further and explain 
that in just a second. 

177
00:10:19,900 --> 00:10:23,600
If I enter Heaven, I must obey. 
And that's what I'm going to put

178
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,400
here. 
I must obey. 

179
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:34,600
And the third thing I'll put on 
here is don't Disobey. 

180
00:10:37,100 --> 00:10:40,400
My mother had a famous saying 
went don't disobey me something 

181
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,500
along those lines. 
And the reason why is had to be 

182
00:10:43,500 --> 00:10:46,500
a very emphatic point. 
It was it was a family. 

183
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:49,000
Rule, for example, in our 
family, you don't bring your 

184
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,000
dirty nasty, gritty. 
Filthy clothes feech, use 

185
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,900
nothing in this house after I've
mopped it, that was it, that was

186
00:10:54,900 --> 00:10:59,300
a ruled so to speak, well, God 
is simply saying, listen Cullen,

187
00:10:59,500 --> 00:11:03,800
you have sins, you have 
mistakes, you have short, 

188
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,800
shortcomings, that literally are
not coming in my house. 

189
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,800
Not coming there. 
And what God asks of us when we 

190
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,900
come to, the kingdom is very 
simple. 

191
00:11:13,900 --> 00:11:18,900
Jesus was asked the question. 
What is the greatest commandment

192
00:11:18,900 --> 00:11:20,000
of all? 
They try to trap him? 

193
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,100
Jesus said, love God, heart soul
and mind. 

194
00:11:23,700 --> 00:11:26,400
That's the first. 
The second is love your neighbor

195
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,300
as yourself. 
I want to, I want to illustrate 

196
00:11:28,300 --> 00:11:33,600
this as carefully as I possibly 
can, if I come and I live and I 

197
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,500
put God's will first and I 
choose to obey it and I choose 

198
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,600
You not to disobey it, in other 
words, I live by it. 

199
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,100
And I do everything that he 
says. 

200
00:11:44,300 --> 00:11:46,300
What is my life going to be 
like? 

201
00:11:46,500 --> 00:11:48,500
Let's get this straight, here's 
how it goes. 

202
00:11:48,700 --> 00:11:52,500
So, in other words, if I have my
vertical relationship with God, 

203
00:11:52,500 --> 00:11:54,600
right? 
What is everything else about my

204
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,900
life going to be, what's it 
going to be like yes, what if I 

205
00:11:58,900 --> 00:12:02,900
have a vertical relationship, 
right with God, my horizontal 

206
00:12:02,900 --> 00:12:06,100
relationship to everyone that I 
touch and everyone that I come 

207
00:12:06,100 --> 00:12:10,000
in contact with gets better 
means I'm a better person. 

208
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,000
It means I'm going to be a 
better family member. 

209
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:14,700
It means I'm going to be a 
better husband. 

210
00:12:14,700 --> 00:12:16,500
It means someone's going to be a
better wife. 

211
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,600
It means we're going to be 
better kids. 

212
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,000
We're going to be better 
siblings. 

213
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,900
We're going to have better 
families. 

214
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,200
You want a family to break down.
Forget about what Jesus taught 

215
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,800
in Matthew 5, 6 and 7 and do it 
your own way. 

216
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:35,000
And see how well it works. 
Jesus gave us illustrations of 

217
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,500
when I her vertical 
relationship. 

218
00:12:37,500 --> 00:12:39,900
When we are totally committed to
put. 

219
00:12:39,900 --> 00:12:44,000
God's will number one, everyone 
else around us receives benefits

220
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,700
from that people around. 
You ought to be blessed by your 

221
00:12:46,700 --> 00:12:50,200
existence, and if people around 
you or sucked dry, and they're 

222
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,400
miserable. 
And you're mean and nasty, let 

223
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,200
me tell you something. 
There is no vertical 

224
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,200
relationship with God. 
It ain't there. 

225
00:12:58,100 --> 00:13:01,500
How many sit in a church pew? 
And I may call on God and I may 

226
00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:04,500
say Jesus Is My Savior but 
everybody around me ought to 

227
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:07,300
benefit from my life and if they
don't, there's a problem with 

228
00:13:07,300 --> 00:13:13,300
me. because the people who know 
Jesus, Blessed everyone around 

229
00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:16,200
them. 
They change lives. 

230
00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:20,400
They change towns. 
They literally turn cities 

231
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,300
upside down. 
So let's rip into this. 

232
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,100
In Luke 6 and verse 46. 
The Bible says, but why call you

233
00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:27,700
me? 
Lord. 

234
00:13:27,700 --> 00:13:32,400
Lord, and do not the things that
I say, Jesus obviously, wanted 

235
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,000
us and his father's will to be 
number one. 

236
00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:38,500
He wanted us to obey and he 
Illustrated disobedience in the 

237
00:13:38,500 --> 00:13:41,400
life of religious people, they 
called in Lord, lorik. 

238
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,300
Thanks, they thought what they 
were doing was in good shape, 

239
00:13:44,300 --> 00:13:47,100
you want. 
Isn't what call you me? 

240
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:49,400
Lord, Lord. 
And do not the things that I 

241
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,700
say. 
Some of the saddest 

242
00:13:53,700 --> 00:13:58,100
conversations. 
And all that I can ever imagine 

243
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,000
our from kids, that have to go 
through some really rough times 

244
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:07,500
with their family. 
And I know some kids right now, 

245
00:14:07,500 --> 00:14:10,500
they're going through divorce 
situations and their parents are

246
00:14:10,500 --> 00:14:17,600
using them as Pawns. 
And one will try to bike it off 

247
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,100
by saying, you can do whatever 
you want. 

248
00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:22,800
While the other parent says, 
I'll buy you whatever you want. 

249
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,100
and the end of it, all you see, 
young people that are literally 

250
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:34,300
ripped apart and you find kids 
that years later look into the 

251
00:14:34,300 --> 00:14:36,400
eyes of their parents. 
When their parents try to utter 

252
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:41,100
the words, I love you and they 
say, no, you don't. 

253
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,600
If you love me you never would 
have put me through that. 

254
00:14:48,900 --> 00:14:53,600
We put God on a different level.
So many times we don't like to 

255
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,300
think about God, having that 
same response. 

256
00:14:57,100 --> 00:15:03,100
Jesus had the same response why 
call you me. 

257
00:15:03,100 --> 00:15:07,300
Lord Lord and do not the things 
that I say, why don't we call 

258
00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:09,300
him? 
Lord, because he's in charge. 

259
00:15:09,300 --> 00:15:11,900
He's the one that can make the 
wind's and the Sea obey. 

260
00:15:11,900 --> 00:15:14,900
He's the one that can heal. 
He's the one that can restore. 

261
00:15:14,900 --> 00:15:16,900
He's the one that can put things
back together. 

262
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:19,500
We want to Connect with him. 
But he says, listen that 

263
00:15:19,500 --> 00:15:23,700
connection. 
The connection is dependent upon

264
00:15:23,700 --> 00:15:26,900
the reality of whether or not 
you internalize my. 

265
00:15:26,900 --> 00:15:31,400
Will you have to internalize? 
My will the first thing I want 

266
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,200
to say tonight about coming to 
the kingdom. 

267
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:39,400
Is we have to accept? 
We have to accept the Kings 

268
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:45,600
offer and it is an offer. 
It's an offer and an acceptance 

269
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,300
situation. 
The grace-filled offer was given

270
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:51,100
by the king of kings and Lord of
lords. 

271
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,600
How do I receive this? 
How do I accept? 

272
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,200
This? 
Jesus said, we obey, we do the 

273
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000
will of the father. 
So I understand this, I get it. 

274
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,300
Now, the Kingdom of Heaven is at
hand, the Kingdom of Heaven is 

275
00:16:03,300 --> 00:16:05,900
nigh the Kingdom of Heaven, the 
Kingdom of Heaven. 

276
00:16:06,100 --> 00:16:09,000
How do we get into the kingdom? 
And that's where salvation is 

277
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,600
except a man. 
Be born of water and the spirit,

278
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,600
he cannot enter the Kingdom of 
Heaven. 

279
00:16:13,700 --> 00:16:15,400
It is an offer. 
It's an entrance. 

280
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,100
How do I do that? 
We have to accept the Kings 

281
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:24,000
offer. 
Do the father's will Do the will

282
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,900
of my father. 
It's vital to understand the 

283
00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:29,600
offer is from God. 
The offer is powerful, it is 

284
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,900
full of love. 
We put this up here last night, 

285
00:16:31,900 --> 00:16:36,700
the offer is full of grace and 
fission's. 289 says, we are 

286
00:16:36,700 --> 00:16:39,200
saved by grace through faith, 
not of Works, lest any man 

287
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,200
should boast, it's by love God. 
So loved the world that he gave 

288
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,500
his only begotten son, that 
whosoever believeth in him, 

289
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,600
should not perish but have 
everlasting life. 

290
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,500
I love what Jill. 
Hisle says about that. 

291
00:16:50,500 --> 00:16:53,000
It's not, it's not what Billy 
Graham said. 

292
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,400
One time and a huge Revival. 
He quoted. 

293
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,800
John 3:16 and said shall not 
perish. 

294
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,200
And that's not what it says. 
It says should not perish and I 

295
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,800
want to tell you something, if 
you go to hell and you believe 

296
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,099
that Jesus is who he said he 
was, you shouldn't have gone to 

297
00:17:08,099 --> 00:17:13,599
hell. 
Should not perish in Hebrews 

298
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:16,900
8:12. 
The Bible speaks about this 

299
00:17:16,900 --> 00:17:21,400
offer being full of mercy, so 
it's an offer of love and grace 

300
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:26,400
and mercy who's that offer to. 
That offer is to people like me,

301
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,400
people. 
Like you the offers to everyone.

302
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,200
Go into all the world and preach
the gospel to Every Creature. 

303
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,500
He would say, but there has to 
be a response somewhere 

304
00:17:37,900 --> 00:17:40,500
somewhere. 
There has to be response from 

305
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:44,300
every single heart. 
God does not come into your life

306
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,700
and grab you by the head and 
saying I'm choosing you. 

307
00:17:46,700 --> 00:17:48,700
Whether you want me to choose 
you or not. 

308
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,300
He never has done that, and he 
won't do it. 

309
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,400
God says, here's my invitation. 
Here's who I am. 

310
00:17:55,500 --> 00:17:58,100
How do we know who God is? 
Look at Jesus. 

311
00:17:58,700 --> 00:18:01,300
Jesus said, if you've seen me, 
you've seen the father? 

312
00:18:01,300 --> 00:18:05,500
I don't know about you. 
But when I read about who Jesus 

313
00:18:05,500 --> 00:18:08,200
was, it is humbling. 
It is so stirring. 

314
00:18:08,300 --> 00:18:13,300
It is amazing. 
And when we choose God, we're 

315
00:18:13,300 --> 00:18:17,700
going to choose him from the 
heart with the heart that 

316
00:18:17,700 --> 00:18:20,700
confession is made or with the 
mouth confession is made, but it

317
00:18:20,700 --> 00:18:25,300
comes from the heart. 
But this offer this offer of 

318
00:18:25,300 --> 00:18:31,900
love and grace and mercy must be
accepted. 

319
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,400
It has to be the Jews. 
Didn't accept it. 

320
00:18:37,900 --> 00:18:41,000
They looked at around them, when
he beheld, the city of 

321
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,100
Jerusalem. 
And Jesus said, as I can, 

322
00:18:44,100 --> 00:18:46,300
imagine tears rolling down his 
face. 

323
00:18:46,900 --> 00:18:49,400
The old prophet. 
Isaiah said that Jesus was a Man

324
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,500
of Sorrows and acquainted with 
grief. 

325
00:18:52,500 --> 00:18:55,700
One of the great griefs of his 
life is that people rejected 

326
00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:58,300
him, they misunderstood him, 
they wanted to make him an 

327
00:18:58,300 --> 00:19:02,300
Earthly King, such as John 6 and
15, when he would make out of 

328
00:19:02,300 --> 00:19:04,100
Five Loaves and two. 
Fish enough to feed. 

329
00:19:04,100 --> 00:19:08,000
Lots of folks, they came after 
him for Loaves and Fishes and he

330
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,300
was very upset about that. 
But I want to tell you, when 

331
00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:13,000
people walked away from him, it 
upset him. 

332
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,300
He would look at Jerusalem and 
say o Jerusalem Jerusalem that, 

333
00:19:17,300 --> 00:19:20,100
which killest the prophets and 
stonest them, which were sent 

334
00:19:20,100 --> 00:19:21,800
unto thee. 
How often would I have gathered?

335
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:26,900
The is a hen gathers, her chicks
under her wings, but ye would 

336
00:19:26,900 --> 00:19:34,100
not What their hearts say, we 
don't accept you. 

337
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,900
What did their heart say? 
Their heart said no thanks. 

338
00:19:42,700 --> 00:19:47,300
I preach now, for 10 years, 
Full-time or part-time for 10 

339
00:19:47,300 --> 00:19:48,700
years. 
Now, gave my first time and I 

340
00:19:48,708 --> 00:19:52,300
was 19, certainly wasn't 
preaching for a few years till 

341
00:19:52,300 --> 00:19:56,200
after that I can assure you. 
But I have sat and looked in the

342
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,200
eyes of people that attended 
worship Services, I've studied 

343
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,500
with people. 
I've sat on bed with people that

344
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:05,100
were dying and some of the 
saddest things and all the world

345
00:20:05,100 --> 00:20:07,700
are, when people tell me, if 
you're going to talk to me about

346
00:20:07,700 --> 00:20:12,800
that, I'm not interested. 
That's what the Jews did. 

347
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,900
We have to accept the offer from
the King. 

348
00:20:16,900 --> 00:20:19,800
A young family had three 
children, the youngest of those 

349
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,500
children developed a serious 
blood disorder that require 

350
00:20:23,500 --> 00:20:27,100
transfusions. 
Their oldest boy was five and he

351
00:20:27,100 --> 00:20:31,600
was a perfect blood match. 
He was asking, soberly agreed to

352
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,800
the task of giving some blood to
his younger sibling. 

353
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,500
A few minutes into the 
transfusion, the little boy 

354
00:20:38,500 --> 00:20:40,700
looked into his daddy's eyes and
asked. 

355
00:20:41,700 --> 00:20:44,800
Daddy. 
Do you think it will hurt to 

356
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,900
die? 
He thought he was giving 

357
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:53,500
everything he thought he was 
dying for his sibling. 

358
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,800
When you read stories like that,
it makes us sit and pause and 

359
00:20:59,900 --> 00:21:03,600
imagine a child willing to lay 
down their life. 

360
00:21:04,700 --> 00:21:07,700
That's an amazing occurrence. 
I want to ask you very quickly. 

361
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,900
There may be some people you 
would you would lay down your 

362
00:21:10,900 --> 00:21:13,500
life for but how about your 
child? 

363
00:21:15,100 --> 00:21:20,000
How would you do with that? 
How about guys, like Timothy 

364
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,500
McVeigh that was involved in the
1993, Oklahoma City Bombing that

365
00:21:23,500 --> 00:21:26,500
killed. 
So many people, one of our first

366
00:21:26,500 --> 00:21:29,200
terrorist attacks on American 
soil that literally Rock This 

367
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,200
Nation. 
If you've ever been to Oklahoma 

368
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,000
City and gone through that spot 
where that happened and gone 

369
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,700
through the museum, literally I 
have chills rolling down my 

370
00:21:38,700 --> 00:21:42,600
spine right now is I can 
remember the chilling moment. 

371
00:21:43,500 --> 00:21:48,000
The markers that sit outside The
Monuments and the articles of 

372
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,000
clothing. 
And you look at the man who did 

373
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,500
such atrocities against people 
that were not responsible for 

374
00:21:55,500 --> 00:21:59,300
the object of his anger. 
But yet they died. 

375
00:21:59,300 --> 00:22:02,900
Anyway, would you give your 
child for Timothy McVeigh? 

376
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,200
What about Jeffrey Dahmer? 
Who killed several young boys? 

377
00:22:08,500 --> 00:22:10,600
He had problems with 
homosexuality. 

378
00:22:11,900 --> 00:22:14,700
Literally ate body parts. 
It was in a horrific moment in 

379
00:22:14,700 --> 00:22:18,600
American history. 
What about the Green River? 

380
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,300
Killer? 
What about that guy with a 

381
00:22:21,300 --> 00:22:25,000
swastika on his forehead? 
That crazy loon that y'all have 

382
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,700
locked up somewhere out. 
Here named Charles Manson that 

383
00:22:28,700 --> 00:22:31,500
killed, the Tate family and 
wrote, blood on walls, and 

384
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:36,400
horrific moments. 
Get those pictures in your mind 

385
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,700
because we often think about 
those guys and they ought to be 

386
00:22:39,700 --> 00:22:45,200
locked up or dead, they ought to
have the express lane to the gas

387
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,800
chamber, or the electric chair, 
and certainly not alive eating 

388
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,600
and breathing in good health. 
Those are many times the 

389
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:57,300
reactions we have I don't know 
anybody that would give their 

390
00:22:57,300 --> 00:23:00,500
children for the latest inmates 
at San Quentin. 

391
00:23:01,100 --> 00:23:02,800
I don't know. 
Anybody that would do that. 

392
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,800
Do you? 
Yet the Bible says in Romans 5 

393
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:12,700
and 6 for when we were still 
without Strength In Due Time 

394
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:17,000
Christ died for the ungodly. 
Do you know the word that needs 

395
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,800
to buy be beside me? 
It needs to be the word ungodly.

396
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,200
Part of the reason why Jesus 
just boy stirred, the religious 

397
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,900
Elite of the day is because they
exalted themselves as religious 

398
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,600
elitist and as if they were holy
listen, I'm not wholly. 

399
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,800
And They're not wholly of my own
accord. 

400
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,400
The only Holiness I will ever be
able to identify with is the 

401
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,000
Holiness that is in Christ 
Jesus, and through his 

402
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,200
forgiveness, and don't you ever 
forget it? 

403
00:23:49,900 --> 00:23:52,500
As the old saying goes, we get 
too big for our britches 

404
00:23:52,500 --> 00:23:55,900
sometimes and we think a little 
more ourselves than we ought to 

405
00:23:55,900 --> 00:23:57,800
think. 
And that's why pride is one of 

406
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,200
the greatest Soul killers of all
time, but that's not all he 

407
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,200
said. 
For scarcely for a righteous 

408
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,200
man. 
Will one die. 

409
00:24:06,300 --> 00:24:09,400
Yet, Perhaps for a good man, 
some would even Dare To Die. 

410
00:24:10,500 --> 00:24:14,700
But God demonstrates, his own, 
his own love toward us in that 

411
00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:19,800
while we were still sinners. 
Christ died for us. 

412
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,500
I have watched on History 
Channel and on C-Span on 

413
00:24:27,500 --> 00:24:35,200
Memorial Day, As men who fought 
specifically in World War Two. 

414
00:24:35,500 --> 00:24:40,100
And now more specifically in 
Vietnam men that have some aged 

415
00:24:40,100 --> 00:24:43,500
men that have gray hair and have
children, and grandchildren, and

416
00:24:43,500 --> 00:24:47,600
in some cases 
great-grandchildren As they go 

417
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:54,700
to the spot of some Graves. 
I know the graves of men that 

418
00:24:54,700 --> 00:24:57,400
died in battle in whatever War 
it was. 

419
00:24:58,900 --> 00:25:02,900
The ones that are the most 
touching to me are the ones 

420
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,300
where men will go to the wall 
that Great Wall in Washington. 

421
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:14,700
Where some 53,000 names are 
etched in Marble in a great 

422
00:25:14,700 --> 00:25:17,000
edifice that captures the 
imagination. 

423
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,900
And the Wonder 53,000 lives died
in some far-flung place in 

424
00:25:20,900 --> 00:25:26,100
Vietnam. 
A war that many didn't believe 

425
00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:29,500
in a war that there was much 
political conflict, but for the 

426
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:32,500
soldiers that were on the 
ground, they literally had each 

427
00:25:32,500 --> 00:25:34,200
other. 
As you hear the interviews, and 

428
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,000
as you read the books, they had 
family there, they had each 

429
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,400
other. 
And it's an electric thing 

430
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,900
whenever you see a guy come 
toward a wall and his eyes began

431
00:25:44,900 --> 00:25:47,800
to get Misty as he gets a little
bit closer and he gets a little 

432
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,300
bit closer and it's almost like 
electricity runs through his 

433
00:25:51,300 --> 00:25:55,200
body as he reaches up and he 
puts his hand in his finger on a

434
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:59,200
specific name and literally 
falls to his knees in tears. 

435
00:26:01,100 --> 00:26:07,700
Unashamedly weeping. 
Not able to rise as his memories

436
00:26:07,700 --> 00:26:09,900
flooded by the things that 
happen. 

437
00:26:10,700 --> 00:26:15,300
And when interviewed when asked 
about why he was so upset would 

438
00:26:15,300 --> 00:26:19,800
say that's the guy that threw 
himself on a grenade. 

439
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,000
And save my life. 
That's the guy. 

440
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:31,700
We identify with that, we hear 
those stories, it moves us and 

441
00:26:31,700 --> 00:26:36,500
then somehow in 2010 the world 
can go on bike and walk right 

442
00:26:36,500 --> 00:26:39,500
past the cross. 
And literally, it's as if Jesus 

443
00:26:39,500 --> 00:26:43,600
threw himself, he did throw 
himself on the sins of the whole

444
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:50,500
world on my sins and on yours. 
And every Lord's day, when his 

445
00:26:50,500 --> 00:26:53,400
memorial is set every Lord's 
day. 

446
00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:56,300
So many people have to be 
begged. 

447
00:26:58,100 --> 00:27:03,500
Invited, we ought to have to 
assess have a line at the door 

448
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,200
for people that can't wait to 
get in to this Memorial. 

449
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,500
Because it's the greatest 
Memorial whole time, it's the 

450
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:15,300
memorial of Jesus Christ and 
what he did for us. 

451
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,400
In history, men die for 
President's Men, dr. 

452
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,500
King's Men. 
Dafa rulers. 

453
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:30,400
I'll King died for us. 
And that changes the game. 

454
00:27:31,100 --> 00:27:35,900
That changes everything. 
It changes everything. 

455
00:27:37,700 --> 00:27:40,500
The one who knew your name 
before you were ever created, 

456
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,700
saw a need that you could not 
feel in yourself and he took 

457
00:27:43,700 --> 00:27:48,400
care of it on the cross. 
That's power and that's planning

458
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,300
and that's execution. 
None of us can even put our 

459
00:27:51,300 --> 00:27:55,400
finger on to grasp. 
And when God saw that need, he 

460
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,400
was willing to do it. 
That's you, are that important 

461
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,500
to God. 
You are that valuable to God, 

462
00:28:02,300 --> 00:28:05,900
that's a huge concept. 
That people have to understand 

463
00:28:05,900 --> 00:28:08,900
when we start talking about 
accepting the Kings offer John 

464
00:28:08,900 --> 00:28:11,600
said herein is love. 
Not that we loved God. 

465
00:28:11,700 --> 00:28:13,300
How beautiful is our love to 
God? 

466
00:28:13,300 --> 00:28:17,600
So many times but that he loved 
us and sent his son to be the 

467
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,500
propitiation for our sins. 
One verse. 

468
00:28:20,500 --> 00:28:23,600
We said it last night and 
Hebrews 5 & 9. 

469
00:28:23,700 --> 00:28:27,800
Will says he became the author 
of Eternal salvation unto all 

470
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,100
those that obey him. 
The Kings offer is sent is 

471
00:28:31,100 --> 00:28:34,700
simple. 
It is a foundation built upon 

472
00:28:34,700 --> 00:28:37,100
Faith. 
Hebrews 11:6 says, without 

473
00:28:37,100 --> 00:28:42,200
faith, it is impossible to 
please him, for he that cometh 

474
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:47,700
to God must believe that he is, 
and that he is a rewarder of 

475
00:28:47,700 --> 00:28:51,100
those who diligently. 
And I might put this right over 

476
00:28:51,100 --> 00:28:55,400
here. 
Those who diligently gently seek

477
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,200
Him. 
Are you a Seeker? 

478
00:28:58,900 --> 00:29:00,400
Are you seeking God for the 
needs? 

479
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,200
You can't fill in your own life.
Are you seeking God for the 

480
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,300
answer to your problem called 
sin? 

481
00:29:07,300 --> 00:29:08,900
If you are, I've got some good 
news. 

482
00:29:08,900 --> 00:29:10,800
The Kings offer still available 
today. 

483
00:29:11,900 --> 00:29:15,600
It's still available for all of 
us, but based upon our faith 

484
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,000
were willing to change our life 
and repent as Jesus taught in 

485
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Luke 13 and three confessed. 
The sweet name of Jesus that he 

486
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,300
is the Son of God is the 
Ethiopian eunuch did and acts 8 

487
00:29:26,300 --> 00:29:30,300
verse 37, and we allow ourselves
to be immersed in water for the 

488
00:29:30,300 --> 00:29:35,500
remission of our sins. 
That's the Kings offer that he 

489
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,200
authored. 
Every single one of these things

490
00:29:39,500 --> 00:29:44,800
was an offer written or revealed
by Jesus himself. 

491
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,700
No, man, came up with this and I
don't believe any man has the 

492
00:29:48,700 --> 00:29:51,700
right to say, you don't have to 
change your life, you don't have

493
00:29:51,700 --> 00:29:53,800
to confess. 
Jesus is the son of God or you 

494
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,700
don't have to be baptized for 
the remission of your sins, yet 

495
00:29:56,700 --> 00:30:02,200
many men do I find pamphlets and
restrooms and foam booze and on 

496
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,600
my door half, the time to tell 
me a variety of ways that I can 

497
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,400
be saved. 
And if I'm ignorant it, if I'm 

498
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,100
not informed at all and I think 
it was that sounds good to me. 

499
00:30:12,500 --> 00:30:15,000
Then I'm the very picture of 
what Jesus said, many will say 

500
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,800
to me that Lord, Lord and I 
don't know them. 

501
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,400
Because if you want to accept 
the Kings offer you better dead.

502
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:22,800
Sure. 
Make us the offer from the King 

503
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,700
himself and not some counterfeit
offer. 

504
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,000
It's the offer from Jesus. 
Jesus said, go into all the 

505
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,900
world and preach the gospel to 
Every Creature. 

506
00:30:31,900 --> 00:30:35,000
He that believeth and is 
baptized shall be saved. 

507
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,500
Once you're saved. 
The Bible says he has delivered 

508
00:30:37,500 --> 00:30:41,900
us from the power. 
Of Darkness. 

509
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,500
He has delivered us from the 
power of darkness and has 

510
00:30:48,500 --> 00:30:52,300
conveyed us or translated us 
into the kingdom of the son of 

511
00:30:52,308 --> 00:30:57,100
his love in whom we have 
Redemption through his blood, 

512
00:30:57,100 --> 00:31:03,700
the Forgiveness of sins. 
Obedience, obedience says yes 

513
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:08,400
disobedient says. 
No, how do I prove that? 

514
00:31:09,700 --> 00:31:12,900
In Romans, 6:17 after Paul had 
given his great Treatise on the 

515
00:31:12,900 --> 00:31:15,800
death burial and Resurrection. 
He said, but God be thanked that

516
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:22,500
ye were the Servants of sin you 
used to be in darkness but you 

517
00:31:22,500 --> 00:31:25,500
have obeyed from the heart that 
form of Doctrine which was 

518
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:28,700
delivered. 
You being then made free from 

519
00:31:28,700 --> 00:31:30,600
sin. 
Ye became the Servants of 

520
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,600
righteousness. 
Now. 

521
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,400
And you obeyed the gospel. 
Have you confessed your faith. 

522
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,600
That Jesus is the son of God. 
Have you committed a change your

523
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:48,700
life and your heart? 
Have you been immersed in water 

524
00:31:48,700 --> 00:31:51,700
for the remission of your sins? 
In the name of Jesus, in the 

525
00:31:51,708 --> 00:31:53,900
name of the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Spirit. 

526
00:31:55,100 --> 00:31:58,300
If you have not done that, you 
have not responded to the Gospel

527
00:31:58,300 --> 00:32:02,500
of Jesus Christ. 
And if you think you have, I 

528
00:32:02,500 --> 00:32:05,800
want you to talk to me about 
that after church, because what 

529
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,100
I'm going to need from you is 
very, very simple. 

530
00:32:09,300 --> 00:32:12,600
I'm going to need you to open 
that book that contains all of 

531
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,500
the will of God Almighty. 
And I'm going to need you to 

532
00:32:15,500 --> 00:32:19,400
show me where that will is that 
allows you to accept the 

533
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,700
invitation of Jesus Christ. 
Some other way, than through 

534
00:32:22,700 --> 00:32:24,600
faith and repentance and 
confession and baptism. 

535
00:32:24,700 --> 00:32:27,600
Chisholm, because I find no 
other way in the word of God. 

536
00:32:30,300 --> 00:32:33,900
I want to obey the will and I 
want to accept the offer of 

537
00:32:33,900 --> 00:32:36,300
Jesus. 
Christ's obedience to the will 

538
00:32:36,300 --> 00:32:39,800
of God is simply a sinner saying
yes to something he does not 

539
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,800
deserve. 
I'll give an example now, I'm 

540
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,500
not real sure. 
But 99 goes down a ways and what

541
00:32:47,500 --> 00:32:49,500
is that road Darrell that goes 
over to hatch? 

542
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:51,200
P down to Barstow. 
What is that? 

543
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,800
Road 58. 
So you catch 99 258 and you get 

544
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,000
on 40 right there at Barstow 
don't you if you take 40 now 

545
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,400
think about this. 
I've got ten trillion dollars. 

546
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,900
Let's just make it 100 trillion.
I've got a hundred trillion 

547
00:33:03,900 --> 00:33:06,500
dollars at 28:58 New London 
Road. 

548
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:09,100
Let's see how this works. 
Okay, I've got a hundred 

549
00:33:09,100 --> 00:33:11,700
trillion dollars. 
Our national debt is something 

550
00:33:11,700 --> 00:33:14,200
like 12. 
Now, I think that's a lot of 

551
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:18,000
money. 
I've got a hundred trillion, 100

552
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,300
million trillion, or but 
Jillian, whatever you want to 

553
00:33:20,300 --> 00:33:22,800
do. 
I've got it at 28:58 New London 

554
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,300
Road in Strong Arkansas, ZIP 
code, seven 1605, and I don't 

555
00:33:26,300 --> 00:33:28,500
get up out of your seats and go 
there yet, let me finish the 

556
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:31,800
illustration. 
You It on 99, go to 58. 

557
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,600
Catch sporty, go to 40 all the 
way to Amarillo, Texas. 

558
00:33:34,700 --> 00:33:37,900
Take 287 South down through 
Wichita Falls. 

559
00:33:37,900 --> 00:33:40,100
You take it through Fort Worth, 
you go over the river and 

560
00:33:40,100 --> 00:33:42,500
through the woods, almost a 
grandmother's house, then you 

561
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:44,900
catch I-20. 
And you take that East, you take

562
00:33:44,900 --> 00:33:49,300
out 20 East until you get to 167
North. 

563
00:33:49,500 --> 00:33:53,600
All right. 
Check 167 North to get to 82 

564
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,200
East. 
Take 82 East. 

565
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,800
You come to the Big Town of 
strong population, 767 go to the

566
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,000
big new Dollar, General. 
Oh, that's up there which is the

567
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,800
very best thing in town right 
across from teddy bears. 

568
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,900
Which happens to be our gas 
station turn left. 

569
00:34:05,900 --> 00:34:08,100
Go past 58. 
Log trucks about four and a half

570
00:34:08,100 --> 00:34:10,500
miles down the road. 
A chain link fences their turn 

571
00:34:10,500 --> 00:34:12,400
left. 
It's a gravel driveway, there's 

572
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,000
a little pain there and you'll 
see on the back porch, there's a

573
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,199
key up there just behind or over
the light. 

574
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:21,800
Get that key open the door and 
there's a hundred bajillion 

575
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,100
trillion dollars just for you. 
Did you earn it? 

576
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,500
Can you earn 100 bajillion 
trillion dollars? 

577
00:34:32,100 --> 00:34:35,800
No, you can earn it. 
It's a gift. 

578
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:37,400
I'm giving it to you. 
It's there. 

579
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,199
Go get it. 
I'm offering it to you. 

580
00:34:41,900 --> 00:34:44,800
That's a lot further and that's 
something you're going to have 

581
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,300
to think about and write down 
and really spend some time on 

582
00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:50,500
the offer of Jesus. 
Is he died? 

583
00:34:50,500 --> 00:34:53,400
He was buried, he rose again, 
history, records. 

584
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,100
It it's a fact. 
It's a reality that either 

585
00:34:56,100 --> 00:34:58,500
produces faith in you or you're 
an unbeliever. 

586
00:34:58,700 --> 00:35:00,700
Will you have to decide if 
you're going to change and 

587
00:35:00,700 --> 00:35:02,800
follow? 
Jesus confess him as the Son of 

588
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,000
God and be baptized for the 
remission of your sins. 

589
00:35:05,100 --> 00:35:07,900
And it's a much greater gift 
than any hundred trillion per 

590
00:35:07,900 --> 00:35:12,500
Julian dollars. 
I can give you you just simply 

591
00:35:12,500 --> 00:35:14,700
follow the directions to the 
gift. 

592
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,200
That's what obedience does you 
follow the directions? 

593
00:35:21,300 --> 00:35:25,600
To the gift. 
Saying yes to King. 

594
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,900
Jesus is the greatest thing 
you'll ever do. 

595
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:37,000
In John 10:27, Jesus said, my 
sheep hear my voice and I know 

596
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:44,200
them and they follow me. 
And that's pretty clear. 

597
00:35:46,100 --> 00:35:48,600
I love that passage. 
You know what else? 

598
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:53,200
I love about it. 
He doesn't stop and I give them 

599
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,400
eternal life. 
What do you mean? 

600
00:35:55,700 --> 00:35:59,000
You mean if I'll obey, I'm 
following Jesus, I'm not earning

601
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,300
absolutely not, you're not 
earning anything. 

602
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,100
My sheep hear my voice. 
They follow me and I give them 

603
00:36:06,100 --> 00:36:09,400
eternal life and they shall 
never perish. 

604
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,500
Neither shall anyone? 
Snatch them out of my hand? 

605
00:36:12,500 --> 00:36:17,300
My father who has given them to 
me, is greater than all and no 

606
00:36:17,300 --> 00:36:20,300
one is able to snatch them. 
Out of my father's hand, I and 

607
00:36:20,300 --> 00:36:23,600
my father are one. 
Let me tell you, there is no 

608
00:36:23,700 --> 00:36:27,300
demon, there is no angel. 
There is no man. 

609
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,300
There is no government that can 
ever separate you from the love 

610
00:36:31,300 --> 00:36:33,500
of Christ when you're following.
Christ. 

611
00:36:34,700 --> 00:36:39,300
They don't exist. 
The atom bomb, Hiroshima, 

612
00:36:39,300 --> 00:36:42,800
Nagasaki you name it. 
You've never seen a power up 

613
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:47,500
beside the Unseen powers of God,
and the point he's making is he 

614
00:36:47,500 --> 00:36:52,500
will never allow you to be 
overtaken by anyone spiritually.

615
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,200
The second thing I'll say very 
quickly. 

616
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:02,000
My last two points are brief. 
Accept the fact you are under 

617
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:05,900
the Kings law, you are under 
law. 

618
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,900
Geez. 
Did not want the disciples or 

619
00:37:07,900 --> 00:37:10,200
the principle of obedience to be
lost. 

620
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,300
He went on in Matthew 7 verse 
24. 

621
00:37:12,300 --> 00:37:17,000
He said therefore whoever hears 
these sayings of mine and does 

622
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,600
them. 
I will liken him to a wise man 

623
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,200
who built his house on the rock 
and the rain descended and the 

624
00:37:23,207 --> 00:37:26,200
floods came and the winds blew 
and beat on that house and it 

625
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:30,300
did not fall for it, was founded
on the rock verse 26 but 

626
00:37:30,300 --> 00:37:34,100
everyone who hears these sayings
of mine and does not do them the

627
00:37:34,100 --> 00:37:38,400
disobedient. 
Number three, Will be like a 

628
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:42,900
foolish man who built his house 
on the sand and the rain 

629
00:37:42,900 --> 00:37:45,600
descended and the floods came 
and the winds blew and beat on 

630
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,800
that house. 
And it fell and great was its 

631
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,500
fall. 
Now, I don't know about you, but

632
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:55,900
I've always thought it was a 
very strange thing and I'm not 

633
00:37:55,900 --> 00:37:58,100
picking on people from 
California when I say this. 

634
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,100
There's some people that build 
our house on some pretty steep 

635
00:38:01,100 --> 00:38:04,000
hills around here, and I think 
to myself, I sure hope that has 

636
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,800
some pillars down to rock and of
course, during a big mud slide. 

637
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,200
You know what happens, the 
houses fall off and they go down

638
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:11,800
and all the rest of us back 
East. 

639
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,500
They are those crazy people from
California and you laugh 

640
00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:17,100
whenever tornado goes through 
and sweeps up every trailer park

641
00:38:17,100 --> 00:38:18,500
and the eastern part of the 
United States. 

642
00:38:18,500 --> 00:38:20,600
Say haha, those crazy people 
back east. 

643
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,800
Understand how it goes but what 
Jesus said here was you'd 

644
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,000
better. 
Make sure you have a foundation 

645
00:38:27,100 --> 00:38:30,000
that is Rock. 
Solid, let me tell you 

646
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,900
something. 
If you're living by a life law 

647
00:38:32,900 --> 00:38:36,100
other than the word of God, 
you're not living a rock-solid 

648
00:38:36,100 --> 00:38:38,900
life. 
If you look at the Bible and you

649
00:38:38,900 --> 00:38:42,300
say I want to live by what the 
Bible says, you're living off 

650
00:38:42,300 --> 00:38:46,500
what I know preacher said one 
time was a rock-ribbed, Bible 

651
00:38:46,500 --> 00:38:49,300
truth and that just meant it was
Foundation. 

652
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,600
You're not building. 
Adding on things that shift on 

653
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,900
things that change, Jesus said, 
the word of God will make you a 

654
00:38:55,908 --> 00:38:59,500
disciple and free you from sin. 
Jesus answered and said, if 

655
00:38:59,500 --> 00:39:03,500
anyone loves me, he will keep my
word in John 14:23. 

656
00:39:03,500 --> 00:39:06,300
If I claim, I love Jesus and 
don't keep his word. 

657
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:09,800
I'm a liar. 
Keep his word. 

658
00:39:10,700 --> 00:39:13,400
Keeping the will of God is 
absolutely vital. 

659
00:39:14,500 --> 00:39:17,200
When you keep the will of God, 
your hearts going to change. 

660
00:39:18,100 --> 00:39:21,600
It's like a filter you ever 
drank water before. 

661
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,600
That was nasty, you haven't gone
to San Angelo Texas. 

662
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,700
Some time I lived there for a 
while. 

663
00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:30,100
The waters Brown Wichita Falls 
wasn't much better. 

664
00:39:30,100 --> 00:39:32,500
And now I'm in Strong Arkansas 
and the New London Water 

665
00:39:32,500 --> 00:39:34,700
Association pops. 
It straight out, straight out of

666
00:39:34,700 --> 00:39:37,200
the Ouachita River and I assure 
you bottled water. 

667
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:41,500
Is your favorite drug of choice?
I know what a good filter is, 

668
00:39:42,100 --> 00:39:44,400
you get the Brita water filter 
and you put it in there. 

669
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,600
And all of a sudden, the magic 
charcoal thing takes that nasty 

670
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,500
Brown water and before long. 
You're drinking beautiful. 

671
00:39:50,500 --> 00:39:52,700
Perfect water. 
That's what the word of God does

672
00:39:52,700 --> 00:39:55,400
in your heart. 
Peter would say you have 

673
00:39:55,400 --> 00:40:00,200
purified your hearts. 
Through unfeigned, love of the 

674
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,700
Brethren. 
When he said, you have kept the 

675
00:40:01,700 --> 00:40:06,300
word of God. 
That's a powerful thing Jesus 

676
00:40:06,300 --> 00:40:09,700
wanted our hearts to change. 
Think about the golden rule in 

677
00:40:09,700 --> 00:40:13,100
Matthew, 7 and 12. 
Therefore whatever you want men 

678
00:40:13,100 --> 00:40:17,100
to do to, you do also to them 
for this is the law and the 

679
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:20,400
prophets, do unto others, as you
would have them. 

680
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,300
Do unto you. 
You do good to people all the 

681
00:40:23,300 --> 00:40:25,400
time. 
He'd is a positive law, but he 

682
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,200
also added, he said enter you 
into the Straight Gate. 

683
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,200
For wide is the gate and Broad 
is the way that leads to 

684
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,700
destruction. 
And there are many who go in by 

685
00:40:34,700 --> 00:40:39,100
it, because narrow is the gate 
and difficult is the way which 

686
00:40:39,100 --> 00:40:41,900
leads to life. 
And there are few who find it. 

687
00:40:43,100 --> 00:40:50,100
most people are going to 0, but 
disobey My question to you is 

688
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:55,200
how convicted and convinced are 
you that you need to live by 

689
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,000
what Jesus said, totally and 
completely. 

690
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,400
Because I want to tell you if 
there's a crack in that armor 

691
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,200
and you say well yeah but I 
still like to kind of do my own 

692
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:10,800
thing sometimes. 
Well that's a broad way of 

693
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:15,300
thinking, it promises so much 
happiness, which the Bible just 

694
00:41:15,300 --> 00:41:19,600
calls the pleasures of sin that 
only lasts for a season, but so 

695
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,700
many people get suckered into 
number 3 and they forget about 

696
00:41:23,700 --> 00:41:27,900
number two, even though Jesus 
required it of all of us. 

697
00:41:28,100 --> 00:41:30,700
The third thing, I want to say, 
when you come to the kingdom is 

698
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:39,200
You act like the key. 
All my life. 

699
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,000
I heard Linwood Smith. 
Tell the story. 

700
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:45,400
By the little boy, one time that
was an orphan and the Kings 

701
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,700
Chariot came by and he was 
playing with all the other 

702
00:41:47,700 --> 00:41:50,400
little boys, but he didn't have 
anybody to take care of him. 

703
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,600
And so, the king saw him and he 
was very malnourished and he did

704
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,700
it had no clothes. 
And the King stopped his Chariot

705
00:41:59,700 --> 00:42:02,000
and said, would you like to come
home with me and little guy 

706
00:42:02,100 --> 00:42:05,200
climbed right up in the Chariot 
with him went home? 

707
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,100
The king had all of his 
servants, wash him up and clean 

708
00:42:09,100 --> 00:42:12,100
him up. 
He adopted him as his own son, 

709
00:42:12,100 --> 00:42:14,900
gave him a name and a title. 
He was now Prince. 

710
00:42:16,100 --> 00:42:18,600
He had a robe and ring and 
shoes. 

711
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,800
He had people that saw to his, 
every need took care of him in 

712
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,300
every way. 
One day, the king saw the little

713
00:42:26,300 --> 00:42:28,100
boy, as he was sitting on the 
corner. 

714
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:35,400
Of the gates as it were of the 
wall and he was looking out in 

715
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:39,800
the far distance. 
At his old friends that it is 

716
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,400
old mud hole that he used to 
play in and swim in. 

717
00:42:45,300 --> 00:42:48,300
And his father, the king came up
and put his arm on him and said 

718
00:42:49,300 --> 00:42:53,100
do you miss it? 
Do you want to go back? 

719
00:42:55,300 --> 00:42:59,200
And he looked for a moment and 
very thoughtful, he said, I used

720
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:04,900
to But then I remember that I am
the King's son. 

721
00:43:06,100 --> 00:43:08,800
And King son's, don't clay and 
mud holes. 

722
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:17,400
So many times Our Lives invite 
us to take a Hiatus. 

723
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,200
We just for a moment in time. 
We're going to go do our own 

724
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,600
thing. 
We're going to do what we want 

725
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,100
to do. 
We're going to say in other 

726
00:43:24,100 --> 00:43:27,800
words. 
We're going to wallow in the mud

727
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:32,200
hole. 
And we forget, we are children 

728
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,100
of the king of kings and Lord of
lords. 

729
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,000
And there are certain 
obligations that go along with 

730
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,100
that. 
We are supposed to reflect the 

731
00:43:43,100 --> 00:43:47,600
light of our King. 
And our King is Jesus, as long 

732
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,900
as I am in the world. 
Jesus said, I am the light of 

733
00:43:49,900 --> 00:43:55,000
the world in John 9 and 5 yet in
Matthew 5:14, he said, you are 

734
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,200
the light of the world. 
A city that is set on a hill 

735
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,100
which cannot be hidden and verse
16. 

736
00:43:59,100 --> 00:44:02,500
He would give that famous verse,
let your light so shine before 

737
00:44:02,500 --> 00:44:07,400
men that they may see your good 
works and glorify your father, 

738
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:11,100
which is in heaven. 
When you act like Jesus, you 

739
00:44:11,100 --> 00:44:13,400
glorify God and you bring glory 
to God. 

740
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,000
Why is that? 
Because when your relationship 

741
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,100
with God is great, you're a 
blessing to other people and the

742
00:44:19,107 --> 00:44:22,800
works of your hand scream. 
There are a child of the king. 

743
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:28,000
And when your blessing God and 
bringing honor to God, you're 

744
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,800
living the greatest life you 
could ever imagine. 

745
00:44:30,900 --> 00:44:33,200
It's the very purpose for your 
existence. 

746
00:44:33,300 --> 00:44:37,400
It's what your greatest task is 
on a daily basis and it's not a 

747
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,700
job, it's a privilege. 
It's an honor. 

748
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:47,900
Sean like the key, we're a 
reflection of him. 

749
00:44:47,900 --> 00:44:51,500
Paul said for you were once 
Darkness but now you are light 

750
00:44:51,500 --> 00:44:59,300
in the Lord walk as children of 
light. tonight, I close with the

751
00:44:59,300 --> 00:45:05,300
invitation of Jesus. 
Jesus gave an invitation Jesus, 

752
00:45:05,300 --> 00:45:08,500
offered. 
Many invitations, the Revelator 

753
00:45:08,500 --> 00:45:10,600
would close the Book of 
Revelation. 

754
00:45:12,100 --> 00:45:14,200
With the spirit and the bride 
say come. 

755
00:45:16,100 --> 00:45:21,000
In Matthew chapter 11 verse 28, 
Jesus said come unto me all ye 

756
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:25,600
that labor and are heavy laden 
and I will give you rest. 

757
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:30,900
Make no mistake about it. 
Jesus is the one that will give 

758
00:45:30,900 --> 00:45:36,300
you rest if you have rest. and 
the way you're going to have 

759
00:45:36,300 --> 00:45:41,800
rest, Is to accept his offer. 
He wants you. 

760
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:47,800
He invites, you We thank you for
