We are not stupid carpenters, 33 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:24,000 therefore we don't stand on stupid foundations, nor live in 34 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,880 stupid houses, nor have stupid friends. 35 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:34,160 We are smart carpenters. We have a house built on the 36 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:39,720 rock, so wind, come on, rain, come on. 37 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,120 But at the end of the storm, guess what, We'll be stronger. 38 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,400 And so we will hear correctly today, not offensively. 39 00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:00,800 At least 75 or more passages are in the four gospels that speak 40 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:08,320 about how Jesus caused division, how Jesus upset people, how 41 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,640 Jesus stirred things up in communities, and how Jesus 42 00:03:13,640 --> 00:03:17,320 brought offense. Jesus brought offense. 43 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:22,840 Jesus brought offence. Jesus brought offence. 44 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,080 Jesus. People begged him to leave town. 45 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,560 Demons begged him to leave them alone. 46 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:37,240 People plotted to kill Jesus. Friends abandoned Jesus, People 47 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,760 yelled. Crucified Jesus. 48 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,080 His own disciples doubted him and abandoned him. 49 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:51,920 We Northern Americans, right, You can call it. 50 00:03:54,680 --> 00:04:00,080 What's that drink? All these crazy Canadians want 51 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,360 to change an americano into a Canadiano. 52 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:13,320 Whatever you want to call it, it's an Americano, guys. 53 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:19,720 Allowing a man or a place to drive you crazy, man, I'll drink 54 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,240 an Americano. I'll play in the Devil's Cup. 55 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,280 I'll admit man, the devil don't got no power over me because I 56 00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:28,760 play in a tournament called the Devil's Cup. 57 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,040 You didn't gave, you didn't gave America. 58 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,040 You didn't gave the devil lattes. 59 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:44,240 Y'all crazy man? We Northern American Christians 60 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,400 have become very artful in conflict avoidance. 61 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,840 Every time the gospel has been proclaimed boldly and accurately 62 00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:55,920 in church history, there has been persecution. 63 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:01,040 Every time the church speaks out to confront ungodliness in the 64 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,160 culture or in our lives, there is backlash. 65 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:11,920 Jesus boldly and lovingly spoke truth, and for that he caused 66 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,960 offense. He divided the crowds. 67 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,440 He aroused fierce enmity and animosity. 68 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,880 Jesus calls fierce enmity and animosity. 69 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:29,640 He stirred it up. If we proclaim biblical truth to 70 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,440 a dark and needy world, we will get the very same reaction. 71 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,880 They hated him so much they sent Him to the cross. 72 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,920 Stop twisting yourself in knots to make Christianity 73 00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:51,600 inoffensive. Christianity is offensive or it 74 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:57,280 ain't Christianity. The gospel is offensive or it 75 00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:02,880 ain't the gospel. It comes from heaven and it 76 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,560 rebukes our sinful world and ways. 77 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,760 Maybe your family will get saved if you stop watering down the 78 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:18,000 gospel. Christ was not celebrated. 79 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,880 But we steadily come to church to be seen. 80 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:32,920 Christ wasn't rude, He was just. Bold but rude is how the 81 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,080 offended, defined courageous define you. 82 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,920 For being courageous. For speaking unadulterated, 83 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:54,280 uncompromised, not watered. Down truth, but it's the truth 84 00:06:54,280 --> 00:06:57,800 of the gospel, right? Not your personal truth and 85 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,640 opinion because you don't got a problem telling people how you 86 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:05,960 feel about what you think is right, but to put God's reality 87 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,880 in your mouth. We have trouble with here it is 88 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:17,000 EJ the gospel is not or the gospel is incomplete if the 89 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,560 cross is the only imagery and posture we see in cell. 90 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:28,720 The gospel is not complete if it stays at the cross. 91 00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:44,240 Pharisees and scribes, known for their strict interpretation of 92 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:49,920 Jewish law, often clash with Jesus over his disregard for 93 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:55,880 traditional practices. They accused him of blasphemy, 94 00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,240 for claiming to be the Son of God and of disobeying. 95 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,160 I need you to understand this. They read the books that 96 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:10,920 prophesied his coming and then when he said I'm here, they 97 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:18,960 missed it. His truth was so truth they was 98 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,680 offended. There was Herodians. 99 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,040 These were political factions. Now I want you to understand 100 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,920 the. Every group I'm naming, the 101 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:33,080 spirit of that group is in the church today, and it's here 102 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,120 today. Pharisees religious spirit, 103 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:43,440 Herodians political spirit supporting the rule of Herod and 104 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:48,160 they also oppose Jesus due to his growing popularity and the 105 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:53,000 potential threat he posed to the existing power structure. 106 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,440 Roman soldiers, soldiers who mocked and crucified Jesus, saw 107 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,160 his claim to be the king of the Jews as a challenge to the 108 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,840 Roman. Authority and empire. 109 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,840 They they further mocked and humiliated him before his 110 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,640 execution. You see crowds in the synagogue 111 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,800 of Nazareth and Jesus claimed to be the fulfillment of Isaiah's 112 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,120 prophecy about the Messiah and you see Jesus own family. 113 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,480 Jesus rebukes his family, implying that they were not his 114 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,280 true family. If you was here last week, you 115 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,320 would have heard that scripture because we we spat it off a few 116 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,880 scriptures where Jesus, Jesus was, was rude. 117 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,880 No, no, no, no. In today's time you would say 118 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,800 Jesus was very rude. You would leave this church, 119 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:53,320 Jesus would be on social media and they would cut out. 120 00:09:53,320 --> 00:10:00,040 Clips. And not get the true story like 121 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:06,280 they're doing Marvin Sapp about closing the door, right? 122 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,640 Jesus was taken out of context because he was trying to get 123 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,440 humanity back into garden context. 124 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,920 So what we've done is we have punked pastors into giving us 125 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,480 something we actually don't need. 126 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,240 That's a soft, watered down gospel. 127 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,880 No accountability. We don't want counseling that 128 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,800 tells us to stop sleeping around. 129 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,200 Don't get to, don't don't, don't live together. 130 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,440 I'm married. We don't want, we don't want 131 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,000 real marital counselor or premarital counselor. 132 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,840 We don't want no restrictions, no boundaries, nothing. 133 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,960 As long as I know he loves me, I can smoke weed. 134 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,800 I can drink all day. I can. 135 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,400 Ah, messed up. Grace. 136 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,680 Yeah, Grace is grace. The grace corrects. 137 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,720 So you wonder why the church here in North America don't have 138 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:11,960 no power? It's watered down and his, his 139 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:18,040 power only backs truth, For I'm unashamed of the gospel, for it 140 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,080 is the right. The power is in unashamedness. 141 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,440 The power is in courageousness, right? 142 00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:33,320 Other instances we see Jesus offends over and over. 143 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,560 We even see in his own hometown, there's only one place a prophet 144 00:11:38,560 --> 00:11:41,720 isn't honored. It says his own hometown. 145 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,640 So then we see it in this church, right? 146 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,520 I can come preach every week, but it's only a matter of time 147 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:51,640 before that's just PT so you no longer see the anointing. 148 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,440 It's only a matter of time before that's his love quest. 149 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,200 You no longer are hungry and thirsty like you used to be. 150 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,160 And you wonder why miracles do not happen in a church. 151 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,240 It's because we but we frame programs to make you familiar 152 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,840 with it. So you come to a church like 153 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,880 this that don't mind what you think, don't care if you come 154 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,960 back as long as the Holy Spirit have its way. 155 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,560 Why? Because familiarity robs 156 00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:25,560 miracles. So yeah, you might be able to 157 00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:28,960 plan your life around a church service on Sunday and know if 158 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,480 you get in there at 8, you're going to leave at 9:15. 159 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,160 But tell me when the last miracle was performed in that 160 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:39,800 church, when the last time the Holy Ghost overtook that? 161 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,520 Place. No, you, you, you need to get 162 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,160 out at 9:00. 15 And guess what that pastor going to do is so he 163 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:51,200 going, he's all week curating a message and he's practicing so 164 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,160 he can time it for that 30 minutes to make sure you get out 165 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,560 and you happy with that. And that's order. 166 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,880 Well, let's look at Jesus. How much order did Jesus have? 167 00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:11,320 Right, I'm just. Saying, have we ever just really 168 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,800 looked at Jesus or we just stopped at John 316? 169 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,280 Have you ever just like read through the Bible and just heard 170 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,760 the stories? When's the last time you prayed 171 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,480 that somebody that was attacking your family, you asked God to 172 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,160 break his arm? Oh, we don't know how to pray 173 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,400 like that. It's funny, but we sing songs 174 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,280 from the Psalms, but we don't pray prayers from the Psalms. 175 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,920 Somebody's attacking your family. 176 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,680 Pray in the name of Jesus like David did. 177 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,480 You can't have a Davidic culture that don't know how to war. 178 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,880 All you know how to do is dance, but you don't know how to pray. 179 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,200 Lord, break his hands. See what you think. 180 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,080 Break his arms. Is is like how we break arms. 181 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,640 No God breaking arms. I mean take his hands off of my 182 00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:05,480 house. Lord cut the tongue out. 183 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,640 He's like oh that's so, so harmful. 184 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,760 You can't be a pastor and pray that kind of prayer. 185 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,160 Yes I can Lord get they mouth off of me. 186 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,160 Where's that church that know how to war for they city? 187 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:24,840 Right. That's the kind of prayers that 188 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,200 was in the Bible, right? Like, like, like, like 189 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,000 Pharisees, right? They did not. 190 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,920 Not Pharisees, but the the Egyptians came after the 191 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,440 Israelites and God swallowed them up. 192 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,000 Like God, you fools, now you're dead. 193 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,920 Is he mean? Is he a murderer? 194 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:47,960 Not at all. See, that's the issue. 195 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,200 If you don't know his love, you don't know his intent. 196 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,840 So then you think everybody that got flooded out in Genesis, that 197 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,680 was God being cruel. But you didn't see if you was 198 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,960 here Wednesday, you would understand that the Father had 199 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,600 to had to allow everybody die, to die so he can redeem 200 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,400 humanity. Everybody that was caught up in 201 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:09,840 the flood, where do you think they are? 202 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:17,910 Hell no. See, you see death one day. 203 00:15:17,910 --> 00:15:22,150 You want one way you see death as an end or it's over, or mean 204 00:15:22,150 --> 00:15:26,600 or cruel or evil? No, you actually got to die to 205 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,960 get back to glory, like death is in a door. 206 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,480 Why does God allow all this evil to happen? 207 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,200 Well, in the body? Do you read the scripture? 208 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,040 Every. He works everything together for 209 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,040 our good. Everything. 210 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,800 So you need baking soda to make some baking goods? 211 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,320 Would you eat baking soda by itself? 212 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,560 I'll brush my teeth with baking soda sometime, but you know what 213 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,120 I'm saying, right? There are some nasty ingredients 214 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,840 in a very tasteful finished product. 215 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,800 But if you don't see the love of God, you don't know the love of 216 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:11,240 God. All you think of is dark and 217 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,320 death. And you don't even ought to read 218 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,120 the Bible if you don't know God's love. 219 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,480 What lens are you reading? The Word? 220 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,040 And so, yeah, in our flesh, Jesus has been rude. 221 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,240 God has been rude. And whether you have said that 222 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,000 or not, you have acted that way. How dare you interrupt my life? 223 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,000 How dare you ask me to say all that? 224 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,160 How dare you ignore me? How dare you allow my marriage 225 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,400 to, to be, to, to, to come to an end. 226 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,280 How dare you allow my child to die? 227 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,640 How dare you right you. That is rude. 228 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:50,040 That's disruptive. That's inconsiderate, right? 229 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,920 You're in a service too long. How dare you? 230 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,720 I'm at church and it's like I got to go. 231 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,040 How dare you, right? We've all considered. 232 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,720 And when you consider his church rude, you consider him rude. 233 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,760 Why? Because he, unlike us, he 234 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,800 doesn't disconnect his headship from his body. 235 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:14,640 And he says their unbelief, here it is, kept him from doing many 236 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,599 mighty miracles. And this is the question I have 237 00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:25,160 to you today as we venture in this interesting way to look at 238 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:31,560 Jesus. Is he offensive or do you just 239 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:39,560 not believe? Are you continuously asking 240 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:44,280 questions to delay? Do you need another sign because 241 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:48,960 you don't believe we're like Mary you just trying to get 242 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,240 understanding new don't go no, please do not put my son. 243 00:17:52,360 --> 00:17:53,640 Thank you. Thank you. 244 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,560 Don't be prophetic. Thank you Hallelujah. 245 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:05,160 Follow me. Because in our actions when God 246 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,200 asked us to do something, we really act like he's being rude 247 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,240 for asking us. What do you do when someone's 248 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,360 being rude? Ignore him. 249 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:25,240 Resist them. Is he offensive or you just 250 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,240 don't believe? You don't trust or you don't 251 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,240 have faith? We're there. 252 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,520 Let's go. You ready? 253 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,680 Don't be offended with the call to salvation. 254 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:43,000 Be offended that you still struggle having joy. 255 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,720 Be offended that you keep attracting the same kind of men 256 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,680 and women in your life. Be offended that you still 257 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,040 insecure. Be offended that you still 258 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,760 compare yourself. Be offended that you still have 259 00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:03,120 anger issues, or you're bitter, or you don't know how to 260 00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:05,800 forgive. Be offended that you still 261 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,240 watching porn knowing it's not right. 262 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,680 Be you're offended with the wrong stuff, at the wrong 263 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:20,600 people, with the wrong God. The stuff we get offended about 264 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,680 is crazy. Here's Ruth. 265 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,640 It is. It is behaving in ways that are 266 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:37,880 inconsiderate, insensitive, deliberately offensive. 267 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:44,080 Impolite, obscene, or that violate taboos. 268 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,880 In some cases, an act of rudeness can go so far as to be 269 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:53,200 a crime, like hate speech, right? 270 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,040 You could also add inconvenience. 271 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,840 Now look at this definition of rude and do not tell me, even in 272 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,120 your own mind, or your own spirit or your flesh, you have 273 00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:07,160 not thought that a request from God. 274 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,520 A sermon, right The the sermons that we like. 275 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,920 He can't be talking to me. I don't know who he yelling at 276 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:17,840 right? He telling my business, I don't 277 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,280 even know you. I'm not telling your business 278 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,080 the Holy Ghost, right? Or. 279 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,960 No, lift your hands up challenging you on what worship 280 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,600 is right. That's kind of like Jesus. 281 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,880 Like that's not going to let you be comfortable. 282 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,480 Insensitive. My, my, my leg hurt. 283 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,640 That's why I'm sitting down. PT Well, maybe if you hear you 284 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,320 don't think God know your leg hurt. 285 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,360 Maybe if you don't be offended, you can hear the pastor or the 286 00:20:45,360 --> 00:20:48,720 worship leader that's inviting you to stand despite your leg 287 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,080 hurting as an opportunity to be healed. 288 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,880 But you so worried about being inconvenienced you think the 289 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,800 worship leader is inconsiderate. Now you offended and God can't 290 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,120 produce miracles because why you too familiar? 291 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,920 Obscene. Impolite. 292 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,360 Wait a minute, Jesus ignored we. Should we read that last week? 293 00:21:14,360 --> 00:21:15,800 He. Ignored a few people, That's not 294 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,200 polite. But if you understood His intent 295 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,520 in His heart, you would see the ignoring had to do first of all 296 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:29,280 with timing #2 that that resistance or ignoring drew a 297 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,360 faith and desperation that pulled on heaven. 298 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,480 And sometime when you're not getting your way with God, maybe 299 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:41,840 He's asking you to go deeper. Maybe deeper does not mean no 300 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:51,160 not now is not a not. Forever, This is what the enemy 301 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,480 wants us to do is be baited in to offense. 302 00:21:55,280 --> 00:22:00,200 Here it is. Obedience can be delayed when 303 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:05,000 context is misplaced. Understanding is wandering. 304 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:11,920 Wandering and offense is rooted. Oh some folks put they put they 305 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,640 heels in offense. Pride. 306 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,400 Obedience can be delayed when context is misplaced. 307 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,920 I mean you don't have no understanding on what's being 308 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,040 asked for you and then you too pry for the ask for 309 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,080 clarification or understanding. Here it is. 310 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,680 But some of y'all ask for clarifications because you have 311 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:34,320 belief issues. That's why I'm I'm I'm so done 312 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,320 with arguing with people that come with this intellectual 313 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,960 question after church about a scripture that was quoted. 314 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,640 And you really do not want understanding. 315 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,120 You are searching for understanding to to because you 316 00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:53,040 feel your truth being uprooted. So in the in the kind. 317 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,320 Christian way you like? Hey PT, that was a great word 318 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,840 today. Can I get some understanding on 319 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,680 this one passage? But if you really just pause for 320 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,920 a minute, why are you just that person that that that that like 321 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:11,760 come on Wednesday, be like the Bereans and go watch the sermon 322 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:17,400 on on Monday and Word? Search and ask God to reveal it 323 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:26,290 to you. The post office for sure got 324 00:23:26,290 --> 00:23:33,800 more mailed in the mailman. But you should go where I got 325 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,920 the mail from, and you probably get some more letters that you 326 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,720 can open that will give you context and understanding, 327 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,520 right? Obedience can be delayed when 328 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,200 context is misplaced. Understanding is wandering. 329 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,640 Understanding is wandering. You don't want, you don't. 330 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,400 You don't need understanding. You need to discipline your 331 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,640 understanding. Because some of y'all get 332 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,160 understanding on Sunday and then by Monday you'll understand and 333 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,560 get uprooted. And now it starts wandering how 334 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,080 it gets you on YouTube looking at other opinions and you share 335 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,800 your understanding with somebody who wasn't in the house that 336 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,720 day. You didn't know that you got 337 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,520 understanding through Revelation and now you trying to take them 338 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,880 to a scripture and they like that don't make sense. 339 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,160 And because you haven't sat with it long enough yourself, you 340 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,160 can't explain it or teach it. And your lack of being able to 341 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,080 explain it and teach it now has you in a situation where 342 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:35,240 somebody needs understanding on a carnal level. 343 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,840 When you received it from heaven, they trying to receive 344 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,160 it from you. That's why some stuff that you 345 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,240 get from God sit on it before you goes preaching it. 346 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,160 Hallelujah. Don't be offended with the call 347 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,240 to salvation. Be offended with the the 348 00:24:55,240 --> 00:25:00,600 momentum hell has around you. Oh my God, anybody hear me on 349 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,720 this side? Anybody hear me on this side? 350 00:25:03,120 --> 00:25:05,760 Do not be offended with the call to salvation. 351 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,280 Be offended with the momentum that hell has around. 352 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,960 You. I'm going to read that again, Be 353 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,560 offended with the momentum that hell has around you. 354 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,640 Family members keep getting sick. 355 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,280 The spirit of death is running, rapping in your family. 356 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:27,080 Poverty is hitting your family, divorce, alcoholism, Hell's 357 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,760 going on around here and you going to get offended as 358 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,000 somebody asks you to raise your hand in a servant. 359 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,360 Be offended at the hell that's breaking out in your life. 360 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,800 Be offended, you unfaithful, Be offended that you not 361 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:43,400 consistent.

You was too emotionally tied. 407 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,680 You had no ability to walk away. You was telling me I'm a break 408 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:47,200 away.

No, God closed it. 414 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,120 You better man, you better learn. 415 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,040 You better learn how to thank God for doors he shut and he you 416 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,360 ready and he don't got to show you why. 417 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:16,960 Let me tell. Let me tell you first of all, 418 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:22,040 you know why you know why? Hey, you saw signs. 419 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:23,960 You just didn't want to believe it because they was friends and 420 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:29,720 family, right? And and your hope for their 421 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:34,520 change does not have to change. But while you trying to figure 422 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,760 your life out, I don't got to be entangled with you. 423 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,360 You got to be OK with not knowing. 424 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:47,720 What he saved you from. But anytime God shuts a door or 425 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,520 snatches you out of something he was saving you from, man, I'm 426 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,720 trying to encourage. I'm trying to encourage somebody 427 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,560 right now. See, because if God told you 428 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,880 what he was saving you from, some of y'all be like, I could 429 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,680 have, I could have, I could have survived that. 430 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,160 No, they would have. Did that see you? 431 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,920 You, you, you. Go day-to-day and you just you 432 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:13,120 just kind of base your relationships based on who that 433 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:18,280 person is revealed today to be. God knows who they about to 434 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:24,000 become. Trying to help somebody. 435 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,520 Anybody, just three people helped. 436 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,080 Oh, that's all I need. I'm going to the next scripture. 437 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,000 Hey, man, if he wasn't helped, then oh, too bad. 438 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,920 You got to go watch it this week, OK, You ready? 439 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:36,960 You may. He's like, no, he had to spend. 440 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,960 Noah, we should have believed you. 441 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,120 Here's another part of the revelation. 442 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,760 Now, everybody that that's knocking on the door is the 443 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:54,360 people who didn't believe you. So you got to be willing that 444 00:30:54,360 --> 00:31:00,200 when God bless you, then people that didn't help you build, you 445 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,520 got to trust who God called you to get in the ark with is more 446 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,200 than enough because it's going to be some people when you get 447 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,320 in that, when you get on that ark, when you get that business 448 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,720 up and going, when you get in that relationship. 449 00:31:24,270 --> 00:31:27,430 You going to hear them? They drown and they drown. 450 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:58,520 Hey, look like you got it, but you got to know that that God is 451 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,320 not done with them, although they're done with. 452 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:06,520 You. You got to know that God has a 453 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:14,760 plan, see, and you're so worried about preserving the. 454 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:20,000 Past that, you don't understand the millions of people before 455 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,600 you that need you to build this ark come in. 456 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,640 He didn't kill nobody. He preserved everybody. 457 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,760 God is trying to establish a covenant with some of y'all. 458 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:46,800 The Richmond family and the Mancini family and the Hardiman 459 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:53,480 family will never be the same ever. 460 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,240 Ever. The the the enemy is forever 461 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:04,760 defeated in my bloodline. Never. 462 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:10,080 Because we made a decision to get in the Ark and let God shut 463 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:14,640 the door. Us coming to Canada was getting 464 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,800 in the Ark and God shut the door. 465 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,680 We had grieving family members. My wife lost her mom right 466 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:29,320 before we moved. I lost my grandmother the month 467 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:36,520 after we moved. There's a lot of stuff we left 468 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:43,040 behind, but now when I go back I actually have more to offer. 469 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,240 Than people because. Familiarity would have robbed my 470 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:53,040 growth and promotion. Some of y'all promotion ain't. 471 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,000 You don't need to pray for promotion no more. 472 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,840 You need to get out from amongst who you're around. 473 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:02,440 Cuz promotion will be your. Promotion will be your. 474 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,040 Any increase will be sabotaged, not by you, but those around. 475 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:10,199 You. You look at it with the wealthy 476 00:34:10,199 --> 00:34:12,040 all of a sudden. You my cousin, I ain't never 477 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,480 heard from you. Now I'm I'm a billionaire and 478 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:21,280 now you talk about what's up cuz no, let the Lord close the door. 479 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,960 And then all you go, you, you giving your money to all your 480 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,040 new friends. Man, remember we used to play 481 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,840 together when we was 2. But that was the last time I saw 482 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,880 you. I left you in the in the in the 483 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,960 playpen. I ain't seen you no more. 484 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,560 My Mama don't even like your Mama. 485 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,720 I got to keep it pushing. He didn't kill anyone. 486 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,280 He found someone to redeem everyone. 487 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:16,240 Judah, how are you? Good to see you. 488 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,480 Good to see you. Judah. 489 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:23,880 He was Friday.

Hallelujah. 494 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,760 And Lily thought while I was clapping at you she was going to 495 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:39,520 crawl out the back. She's like, 496 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:54,440 Hallelujah. She's smart, though. 497 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,160 She was like, this is the time, this is the time. 498 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:57,560 Right now.

We got some real good stuff to 501 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,280 get to you. Every act of God is an attempt 502 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:11,120 to restore, rebuild, redeem, and reveal His image and likeness in 503 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,440 and through your life. Every act of God, He doesn't 504 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:15,440 waste. Acts. 505 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,480 He doesn't waste moves.

If he interrupted you, he had a 509 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,720 plan for the interruption. He needed to get you somewhere. 510 00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:40,400 He needed to get you disconnected from and get you 511 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,120 connected to. He needed to get something to 512 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:44,960 you and through you. If he's. 513 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,560 If he's. Attempted to interrupt if he's 514 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,920 attempted to close. If he's attempted to open, he 515 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,280 has a plan. He knows better. 516 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,480 He knows more about you than you know about yourself. 517 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,400 So learn how to rest in interruption. 518 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:10,840 Because we we don't mind our suddenly blessing sometimes. 519 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:15,600 You need to settle down when there's a suddenly interruption. 520 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:25,360 Every act of rudeness is Jesus inviting you into the ark of 521 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,480 salvation.

Try and save you. 674 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,760 This is what I know about me. He saved me when I didn't want 675 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:15,480 to save myself. He loved me when I didn't know 676 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,560 how to love myself. See some some of y'all need to 677 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:24,000 stop keeping love out because you don't know how to love you 678 00:48:25,720 --> 00:48:27,200 if you ain't going to love you right? 679 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,120 Let somebody that know how to love love you. 680 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,640 Amplified classics say the zeal of the Lord of hosts will 681 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:41,880 perform this peace, prosperity. There is no peace or prosperity 682 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,480 in God's house. That's that's not at least 683 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:49,320 frequently cleaned out. So no Sundays for a month. 684 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,840 What was we doing turning over tables, whipping that religious 685 00:48:54,840 --> 00:49:01,560 mindset? What is David's throne and 686 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,200 Kingdom? It's a prophetic promise in the 687 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,400 Bible, primarily associated with the lineage of King David and 688 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:15,200 the future of Messiah Jesus, a divinely established, lasting 689 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:20,360 Kingdom and the eventual reign of a King or Jesus. 690 00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:23,440 Not or. But like King Jesus, who will 691 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,800 inherit and continue David's legacy. 692 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:31,920 We actually have a legacy to continue, not a problem to get 693 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,600 out of. Church is not your hospital. 694 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,840 It's not the place where you come and be a victim. 695 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,960 It's not a place where you just remain in triage or remain in 696 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:44,680 the emergency room. It's not a place where you just 697 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,040 get band aids. You actually get. 698 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:52,040 A new life, it says. The zeal of the king. 699 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:54,240 What is zeal before we move forward? 700 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:57,400 Jealousy. Jealousy. 701 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,280 The Bible says that he's a jealous God. 702 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:01,720 Not like you are jealous or not like I get jealous. 703 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:06,360 Because he also says don't be no envy but not like we are 704 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,800 envious, not like like you are envious. 705 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:14,800 He takes pride in you. He doesn't want to share you 706 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:20,000 aside from y'all. What do I mean by that? 707 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:24,920 He does not want you to make idols out of nothing or no one. 708 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,360 Love your kids. But not more than Jesus. 709 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,360 Love your spouse but don't let them replace Jesus. 710 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,480 You turn up with your spouse, you get all romantic you get but 711 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,440 when it come to church or when it come to serving you casual 712 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:40,240 and. All of that. 713 00:50:40,240 --> 00:50:42,480 But you see, everybody gets zealous about something. 714 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:45,360 You're getting zealous about the wrong thing. 715 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:46,840 You're getting envious about the wrong thing. 716 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:48,440 You're getting jealous about the wrong things. 717 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,280 What is this zeal? It's intense, passionate 718 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:55,720 emotion, sometimes even translated as the burn to burn 719 00:50:55,720 --> 00:50:58,200 with zeal. Those that are hungry and 720 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,160 thirsty for righteousness shall be what filled. 721 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,160 It's not just it says the the the fervent and. 722 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:10,600 Effectual prayers, prayer with zeal makes tremendous power 723 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:13,640 available. So when we're giving you moments 724 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:15,080 to pray, there's a time to be like. 725 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,200 But some of y'all watch people pray too much and wonder why 726 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:20,760 stuff ain't popping off in your life. 727 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:26,560 Some of y'all ask for prayer.

He's not rude. 729 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,880 It's his mandate to get you back home. 730 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,080 It's his mission to get you back home. 731 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,200 And sometimes when he's interrupting your life, he's 732 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:52,200 mourning who you used to be because he was in the garden 733 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:57,600 when sin didn't grip you. Sometimes he's interrupting your 734 00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:01,560 life because he is mourning. He is grieving. 735 00:52:05,720 --> 00:52:09,400 Smart carpenters build on the righteousness of God's Kingdom. 736 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:13,000 Stupid carpenters build on the self righteousness of this 737 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,160 world.

Every time somebody cut me off 748 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,440 on the freeway, I just believe that God's saving me from 749 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,560 something. And then I got a little quiet 750 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:55,200 prayer. Hope they crashed in front of me 751 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,040 or something so I could drive by them and wave at them. 752 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:04,520 Die.

Does the leather on the Bible 896 01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:05,240 carry more weight than the skin on your hands? 897 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,040 And and what about this piece of trivia? 898 01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,680 If you shake.

What difference is it make if 904 01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:33,320 you make your promise? Inside or outside a house or of 905 01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:37,960 worship, a promise is a promise. God is present. 906 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:41,800 It's like, what's the difference if you cuss at church or you 907 01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:47,920 cuss at home, cussers. God's at home with you. 908 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:52,880 You don't drink here, but you drink out there. 909 01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:58,400 God's out there with you.

God's out there with you. 911 01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:08,800 God is present, watching, and holding you to account 912 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,840 regardless. You're hopeless. 913 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:13,720 He says it again. So I just changed the color. 914 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,720 Just so you know, this is a different passage. 915 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:19,120 You're religious scholars and Pharisees. 916 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,120 Frauds. He calls them frauds. 917 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:22,880 Again, I changed the color, just so you know. 918 01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:27,640 He continues to repeat himself. You keep meticulous account 919 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:30,480 books. Here it is, tithing on every 920 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:34,800 nickel and dime you get, but on the meat of God's law. 921 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:39,200 Things like fairness and compassion and commitment. 922 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:47,160 The absolute basics you carelessly take or leave now so 923 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,000 you can hear correctly. He did not. 924 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,360 Hear here it is. Jesus says tithing is something 925 01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:57,680 we are blessed to do. He's correcting them, saying you 926 01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:00,680 are being religious about this one thing, but when it comes to 927 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:04,360 love, it's like when it comes to how you treat people, when it 928 01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:07,960 comes to forgiving the adulteress, it's like, but you 929 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,200 want to be strict and orderly about these other things, 930 01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:16,160 bookkeeping and service flow and all these other things. 931 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:20,720 But when it comes to just loving and making this like the basic 932 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:27,160 stuff, it's like careful bookkeeping is commendable, but 933 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:34,480 the basics are required. Do you have any idea how silly 934 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,080 you look? Who's talking? 935 01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:39,400 Jesus is still talking. And I can imagine while there 936 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:41,320 he's going off on them, they're just looking at him. 937 01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:46,880 Just just writing a life story that's wrong from start to 938 01:05:46,880 --> 01:05:53,080 finish, nitpicking over commas and semicolons. 939 01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:56,440 You're hopeless, he says it again. 940 01:05:57,080 --> 01:05:59,520 You religious scholars and Pharisees. 941 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:03,000 Frauds. This is a different scripture, 942 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:06,680 but same conversation. You buff the surface of your 943 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:11,640 cups and bowls so they sparkle in the sun while the insides are 944 01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:14,960 maggoty with your greed and gluttony. 945 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:20,240 Who's talking Jesus? Who's he talking to? 946 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:24,960 The religious folks. He's not talking to the sinners. 947 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:29,640 He's not talking to the the loss, you're not talking to the 948 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,680 world. He's getting his house in order. 949 01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:41,800 Look, I like this one stupid Pharisee who's talking. 950 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,720 Jesus might you the the the savior of the world. 951 01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:50,160 Scour the insides, and then the gleaming surface will mean 952 01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:54,320 something.

That's church hurt. 1002 01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:22,960 When everything out there is most important and here it's 1003 01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:25,760 optional. We build our house. 1004 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:29,760 This is all scripture. You build in your house, you 1005 01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:33,800 invested in your property, you're buying your clothes, 1006 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:36,200 you're doing all these things. But when it comes to my house, 1007 01:10:36,480 --> 01:10:40,360 for all the children that I have called from eternity, then it's 1008 01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:46,360 optional, then it's savings, then it's that's church hurt 1009 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:50,040 too. When we let a group of people 1010 01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:55,520 carry the burden now we'll let them do it. 1011 01:10:57,520 --> 01:11:02,800 That's church hurt too. Thank God for those that are 1012 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:07,080 willing to wear multiple hats because some can't stand with 1013 01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:11,040 one hat. So, so maybe I'm a I'm, I'm a 1014 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,920 get weak a little bit sometime because I'm trying to hold the 1015 01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:17,880 and and, and here it is. Elder John, Jesus needed help 1016 01:11:17,880 --> 01:11:22,920 carrying his cross. So when that person, there's a 1017 01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:26,800 grace for those who are willing to not complain and say I can't, 1018 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:29,800 I can't do it all. But for a moment, Lord, after I 1019 01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:31,760 could do all that I could do, then I could stand. 1020 01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:35,240 And God didn't say it was out of his will that somebody else 1021 01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:39,040 carried the cross for a moment. But did Jesus let him carry it 1022 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:44,160 the rest of the way, or did? Jesus get some strength and he 1023 01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:46,080 took ownership for what he was called to. 1024 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:50,200 Some of us are so quick and willing to pass off what we're 1025 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,320 called to. That's church hurt too. 1026 01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:56,360 Cut from the same. Cloth. 1027 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:02,880 Oh, here it is, Frog.

Never have to pay the piper. 1030 01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:17,640 It's on account of people like you that I send prophets. 1031 01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:20,080 Here it is.

And then you start talking about 1124 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,040 the goodness of God. That's kind of house I grew up 1125 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:18,640 in. You hear people testifying all 1126 01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:21,640 the time. And so that next Friday night, 1127 01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:24,600 OK. And then on Easter, we will be 1128 01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:28,440 here for 9:00 AM and 11:30. Do not miss it. 1129 01:19:28,440 --> 01:19:31,480 It will be powerful. The theme is glory to glory and 1130 01:19:31,480 --> 01:19:33,400 it's going to be a glorious time. 1131 01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:39,640 As you heard from Pastor Dylan earlier, we're we're very close 1132 01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:43,480 and, and God made it very clear that this first project is going 1133 01:19:43,480 --> 01:19:47,000 to be, is going to be taken care of by this house. 1134 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:50,360 OK, Think about fundraising. It is amazing. 1135 01:19:50,480 --> 01:19:53,360 Doesn't necessarily require faith to give because you're 1136 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:56,040 getting something. Think about a project like this 1137 01:19:56,040 --> 01:20:00,360 is you're just believing God to build his house for generations 1138 01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:06,720 to generations to generations. Last week we had 185 left. 1139 01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:11,800 For this phase and after last week we have 170. 1140 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:14,560 So that's 15,000 came in last week. 1141 01:20:20,680 --> 01:20:25,920 So I told you that we need 20 people to give 1020 people to 1142 01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:32,000 give 525 people to give 150 people to give $50. 1143 01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:35,920 Now you might be like, oh, I could do the 50, but maybe you 1144 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:39,920 can do 1000. But those that can do 1000, 1145 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,720 maybe you can do 5000. Why am I saying that? 1146 01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:44,440 Because there's people who can't do nothing. 1147 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:50,520 And I do know that God has blessed certain people with a 1148 01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:53,520 level of financial freedom that it can make up the difference 1149 01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:58,160 for those who are stuck, or shall I say they are. 1150 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:02,240 How do we say it? They are. 1151 01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:08,160 I forget how how it's said in between the blessing. 1152 01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:10,480 There it is. You're in between the blessing. 1153 01:21:10,480 --> 01:21:13,480 You're not broke, you're not poor, you're just in between the 1154 01:21:13,480 --> 01:21:17,240 blessing. And so I believe 100% of the 1155 01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:20,920 people in here can give something today, but at least 1156 01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:23,920 100% of the people in here can begin to tithe. 1157 01:21:23,920 --> 01:21:28,120 If you have not already tithe, what is the tithe is 10% of your 1158 01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:31,720 income that you trust God and his church with. 1159 01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:37,920 And I promise you, he says, try me, I will pour out a blessing. 1160 01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:42,080 There will not be room enough to receive that. 1161 01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,680 There be meat in my house, my house. 1162 01:21:45,440 --> 01:21:48,600 So I believe God has already budgeted out what this house 1163 01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:52,480 needs, but he also needs you and me to extend our hand. 1164 01:21:53,720 --> 01:21:56,000 And I believe in this house we have cheerful givers. 1165 01:21:56,960 --> 01:21:57,760 Amen. Hallelujah. 1166 01:21:57,760 --> 01:21:59,600 That's 10 cheerful givers. That's all we need. 1167 01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:00,720 That's good. Hallelujah. 1168 01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:10,560 Stand to your feet. Hey, man, hope you got 1169 01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:12,440 something.

So get over it. 1172 01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:18,880 You're good. You laughed a lot. 1173 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:21,600 And we're we're we're good.
