So opportunity isn't squandered 15 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,160 and I don't go to glory with regret and disappointment rather 16 00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:52,880 than with the joy of the Lord, knowing I've done all He's asked 17 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,200 me to do. So thank you for the preparation 18 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:56,840 as well as the opportunity.

I ain't just doing this for 30 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,640 y'all, right? So we're gonna have fun, but we 31 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:33,440 going. But how many? 32 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,000 How many Y'all know winning is fun? 33 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,520 How many y'all know glory is fun? 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,560 How y'all know freedom is fun? Yeah, we gonna have fun today. 35 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,320 So the title, the message is today is this Put the title up. 36 00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:48,760 Christmas Adam. Christmas seed. 37 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,120 Christmas Adam. Christmas seed. 38 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,320 Now if I had a subtitle, it would be this Christmas Adam, 39 00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:00,800 not Christmas Eve. OK, that's the subtitle, 40 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,160 Christmas Adam, not Christmas Eve. 41 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,560 So the first thing you need to know is this. 42 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:10,440 On this Christmas time, what we are understanding is that God 43 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:16,880 gave an Adam, not an Eve. It's important to understand 44 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,240 that yes, it's a baby, but God gave an Adam, not an Eve. 45 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,920 When the king is born to the royal family, they don't see a 46 00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:31,160 baby, they see a king. God gave an Adam, not an Eve. 47 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,000 In First Corinthians 1545 it says this. 48 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,480 Thus it is written. The first man, Adam, became a 49 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,640 living being, an individual personality. 50 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:49,120 The last Adam, Christ became a life giving spirit, restoring 51 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,160 the dead to life. God gave a Christmas Adam, not a 52 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,480 Christmas Eve. And that's significant because 53 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,680 the Christmas Adam has a relationship to the first Adam. 54 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,320 It has a relationship to the garden Adam. 55 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,480 OK, so God gave a Christmas Adam, not a Christmas Eve. 56 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,520 Bro, why you repeat so much? Because I'm trying to get it 57 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,360 into you someplace, right? We're trying to penetrate some 58 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,600 things. So you have to understand this, 59 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:24,720 that Jesus was an Adam, everyone Jesus was an Adam. 60 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,760 And probably that's really not grammatically correct. 61 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,720 The reason I say it was is because of the birth I'm 62 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,880 referencing in the past. To be really correct, it would 63 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:40,400 have to say this Jesus is an Adam, because though he was, he 64 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,600 still is. Amen. 65 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,240 But I'm speaking about the birth and referencing that time period 66 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,560 when I say God gave the baby. God gave us an Adam. 67 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:54,520 Jesus was an Adam. 1st Corinthians 15 says this. 68 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,160 Why? Why are you? 69 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,560 Why are you so loud, man? Because see this demons like 70 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,480 this going like, I don't want to hear this, but now they're going 71 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,440 to have to hear it. I'm just saying, First 72 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,520 Corinthians 1522 says this. For just as because of their 73 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:16,160 union of nature in Adam, Garden Adam, all people die, so also by 74 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:21,320 virtue of their union of nature shall in Christ be made alive. 75 00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:25,320 Garden Adam all died. Got it? 76 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,480 Jesus, Adam, Christmas, Adam, all are made alive. 77 00:04:30,840 --> 00:04:33,400 Garden Adam all died. Christmas, Adam all are made 78 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,000 alive. You see the relationship that's 79 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,080 there, but don't get it twisted. It's more than a relationship. 80 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,640 You have to understand the nature of it. 81 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,960 Too often when we see relationship, we think one of 82 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:49,920 one and one to one, OK, got to be focused. 83 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,760 But it's not a one to one relationship. 84 00:04:56,280 --> 00:04:58,440 And it's not an inverse relationship for all you math 85 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,880 people, OK? It's not a reciprocal 86 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,120 relationship for all you geometry people. 87 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,040 It's a grace relationship. Say grace relationship. 88 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,080 Romans 515 says this, but God's free gift. 89 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:22,400 This is the Christmas Adam. It's not at all to be compared 90 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,440 to the trespass, the garden Adam. 91 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:32,480 God's gift shouldn't even be compared to the garden. 92 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,520 Adam, God's free gift is not at all to be compared to the 93 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,720 trespass. His grace is out of all 94 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:43,640 proportion to the fall of man. How many of us really 95 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,320 understand? His grace is out of all 96 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:52,000 proportion to the fall. His forgiveness is out of all 97 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,880 proportion to your sin. Your freedom He gives you is out 98 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,720 of all proportion to your bondage. 99 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,800 God, I've been bound for years. Don't you understand that don't 100 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,400 really matter because your freedom as it arrives is out of 101 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,800 all proportion to the number of years you've been bound. 102 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,200 That's why God can say don't worry about it. 103 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,320 You're not even going to remember it. 104 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,080 You have to remember what you went through, but you won't have 105 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,400 a remembrance of the trauma. Pastor says Amen. 106 00:06:23,840 --> 00:06:26,880 Romans 5 continues on to say this. 15 continues on to say 107 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:32,360 this for if in many for if many die through one man's falling 108 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:37,920 away, Garden Adam much more profusely say much more 109 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:43,560 profusely did God's grace and the free gift that comes through 110 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,320 the undeserved favor of the one man, Jesus Christ, say Christmas 111 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:55,040 Adam abound and overflow. There's no comparison between 112 00:06:55,040 --> 00:07:00,160 what Garden Adam did and what Christmas Adam did. 113 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:10,520 It's not a one for one. Garden Adam gave you a cold. 114 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,880 Christmas Adam Healed your whole province from cancer. 115 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:28,800 Garden Adam gave you a meal to eat. 116 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,120 Christmas Adam gave you bread to feed a nation. 117 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,800 You got to understand it's out of all proportion. 118 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,000 So you got to get out of your mind and get into 119 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,640 multiplication. You got to get out of your own 120 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,200 mind and how you count and get your eyes up to the grace of 121 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,640 God. You can't fathom it because it's 122 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:58,520 out of all proportion. So here's what we got to do. 123 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:05,840 When we think about garden Adam versus Christmas Adam, we got to 124 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,200 say this. Not even close. 125 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,520 The grace of Christmas Adam compared to garden that not even 126 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,320 close. Now, once you show something 127 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:18,480 here, right? It's for everybody, everybody, 128 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,160 everyone says to everybody, see, that's my mouth. 129 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,680 This my mouth. How you know, see them kind of 130 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:25,960 brown lips. That's the best color I could 131 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,560 get right there. Them kind of brown lips. 132 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,080 That's my mouth. So I'm saying it's not even 133 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:37,400 close, but it's supposed to trigger you to open yours. 134 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,240 It's not even close. It's not even close. 135 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,920 It's not even close. When I compare my bondage to my 136 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:53,000 freedom, it's not even close. When I compare my poverty to my 137 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,240 riches, it's not even close. When I compare the days my 138 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,800 family's to being busted compared to the wholeness of my 139 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,000 family for generations, that ain't even close. 140 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,880 When I compare the life I've been giving personally to the 141 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,880 life of a nation that knows revival, it ain't even close. 142 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,280 It's not even close. It's not even close. 143 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:23,320 It ain't even close. It's not even close. 144 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,840 It's not Even so whenever you get ready to pray, someone says 145 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,280 help me brother, I'm bound inside your spirit. 146 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,480 Before you open your mouth, you ought to say I'm going to pray. 147 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,240 God going to release his power. And I'm telling you, bro, it 148 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,680 ain't even close. What's going to happen? 149 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,640 The enemy ain't even close to being able to hold hold you 150 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,800 under bondage. It's not even close. 151 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,960 You got to live like it's not even close. 152 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,280 You got to give like it's not even close. 153 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,320 You got to pray like it's not even close. 154 00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:56,480 You got to have joy like it's not even close. 155 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,960 It's time for Christmas to be cut out with the sad because of 156 00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:03,800 the grace of the Christmas Adam. The joy you get ain't even close 157 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,080 to the sadness you bear. I'm away from my family, but the 158 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,680 joy of being united with a family of God is not even close. 159 00:10:11,560 --> 00:10:15,000 It's not even close. God's trying to pirate an 160 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,080 attitude of a champion to you. It's not even close. 161 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,200 When you walk out the gate and the enemy sees you, he's going 162 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,120 to say to himself, dude, it's not even close. 163 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,200 It's not even close. It ain't even close. 164 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,680 It ain't close. You know, you know, you know, in 165 00:10:30,680 --> 00:10:33,400 New Zealand they got this rugby team shout out to my rugby 166 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,720 players in the house, rugby team. 167 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,560 And they and they come out and do the haka. 168 00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:41,160 You know what the haka is? It's a ceremonial declaration of 169 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,280 their power and authority. I believe it's New Zealand. 170 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,120 It's New Zealand, right, Right. And when they come out and they 171 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,520 do the haka and they come out and they shout and they declare, 172 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,000 you know what the other enemies say? 173 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,160 Oh, God, it's not even close. It's not even close. 174 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,760 That ought to be a testimony going back to hell of your life. 175 00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:02,840 Satan ought to go to the demons. What's the report, man? 176 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,000 It's not even close. What have we seen? 177 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,560 Like a whole nother legion of demons brother. 178 00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,920 Still not even close. What have we seen? 179 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,360 Oh half of hell. It's not even close. 180 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,760 This is not even close man. It's not even close. 181 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,680 So let me ask you this when God had the last Adam in the 182 00:11:22,680 --> 00:11:27,400 Christmas Adam and changed things around OK, do you think 183 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,080 God said flip it and reverse it? You think God said flip and see 184 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,040 God as a hip hop God? I'm going to give you evidence 185 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,760 for that today. Do you think you said flipping 186 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,600 and reversing? How many y'all think you said 187 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,480 flipping and reversing? So y'all learning? 188 00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:47,360 Y'all learning right? Because hello, for those that 189 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,520 are thinking it but didn't raise your hand, hello. 190 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,920 We just said it's not even close. 191 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,440 So God ain't going to flip it and reverse it. 192 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,800 So God said flip it and far exceed it. 193 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,960 He just ain't flipping and reversing. 194 00:12:05,560 --> 00:12:09,880 He's flipping and far exceeding. He's flipping and far exceeding. 195 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,040 Why? Because it's not even close, 196 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:13,960 man. The music will come out of your 197 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,680 fingers, man, in your heart. Compared to what's been in the 198 00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:25,040 earth, it ain't even close, bro. So I want to give you a picture 199 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:30,520 here. Here's a picture of if this is 200 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,280 flipping and reverse it. Put that picture up. 201 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,480 See, So what we got here, we got mountains. 202 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,240 The lion is the earth. That's like when Garden Adam was 203 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,440 here. And the mountains, you see how 204 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,080 big they are compared to the people, because that's how we 205 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,800 think we are compared to the mountains. 206 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,440 We really believe mountains are a bigger creation than we are. 207 00:12:50,680 --> 00:12:52,880 We really believe the mountains are grander than we are. 208 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,760 You know, when you walk through a Linn Valley Canyon and you 209 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,920 want to look up the mountains, you want to go pray for me, 210 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:07,280 Adam, And you want to go, man, when you walk through then big 211 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,000 old mounds, look down and you don't go and say, man, it ain't 212 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,160 even close the glory on you. It ain't close to the glory 213 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,080 that's on me. But anyway, that's how we see 214 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,280 it, right? So right here, here is man in 215 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:28,280 the garden, hands up. And then we sin, particularly 216 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,760 Adam, treasonous, seeing it fell. 217 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,840 Now why is the fallen man bigger than the garden Adam? 218 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,320 Because we believe the fall is bigger than that's how we see 219 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,000 it. See, we believe the fall is 220 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,040 bigger. Sin is bigger. 221 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,560 Sin is more powerful. Sin is more, more, more, more, 222 00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:47,440 more controlling. Sin is not even close to what 223 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,440 God has done versus the other way around what God has done, 224 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,360 not even close to sin. See, that's how we see it. 225 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,240 See the dead man on the ground like that chalk line. 226 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,560 I was looking for a chalk line for you first 48 watchers I 227 00:13:57,560 --> 00:14:00,520 hear, but I couldn't find one. And then what we think the 228 00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:04,640 Christmas Adam did was this restored his back. 229 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,320 That's what we see. But I want to tell you now, I 230 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,480 just told you God didn't flip it and reverse it. 231 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,520 He flipped it and far exceeded it. 232 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,440 So if this is flip it and reverse it. 233 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,520 Let me show you what flip it and far exceeded it is. 234 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,440 That's flipping and far exceeding. 235 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,280 Gordon, Adam. Christmas, Adam. 236 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,200 Gordon Adam. Christmas, Adam. 237 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:47,520 It's not even close. It's important to understand 238 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,120 what you got when this gift. You got to know the horsepower 239 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,200 you got. If you don't know the horsepower 240 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,520 on the Lamborghini, you hit the gas, you'll spin it out and 241 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,000 crash in a pole. You got to know the horsepower 242 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,040 under your hood because it's not even close. 243 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,520 The first Adam God gave us ours. Everyone say ours. 244 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:12,760 The last Adam God gave us his y'all got it? 245 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,640 That's why he said my peace I give to you. 246 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,320 The first Adam, God gave us ours. 247 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,160 He said, y'all mess that up, Forget that, I'm going to get 248 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,040 you mine. Now where's that in the Bible 249 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,480 where the prodigal son came running home and the father who 250 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,480 represents God in Christ said this. 251 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,920 Give him my robe. He done spoiled his robe. 252 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,280 Give him my robe. Give him my ring, give him my 253 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,560 shoes. You feel me? 254 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,640 So though we go back to the garden, we don't go back with 255 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,520 ours, we go back with his. We go back with more authority. 256 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,520 We go back with more power, more grace. 257 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,960 See in the garden Adam had the earth. 258 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,560 As we go back now, we got heavens as well as the earth. 259 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,560 Adam garden. Adam didn't have the throne. 260 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,600 Christmas Adam gave us the throne in him. 261 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,040 So how many verses do you need? We're Co seated. 262 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,760 We're Co heirs, we sit in heavenly places far above all 263 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,720 principalities and powers and everything he talks about a 264 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,280 hundredfold return how bump a crop, how many verses you need 265 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,800 to really understand the fullness of the grace as far 266 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,720 exceeding the sin of your life and the destruction of your 267 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:33,080 life. But I also want to say that God 268 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,080 also said this, you know, he said flip it and far exceed it. 269 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,000 He said this flip it and far exceeded. 270 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,360 Flip it and far exceeded. You see the S there? 271 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:55,120 See I'm my pastor son. I got that word thing on me too. 272 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,720 Say flip it and far exceeded, right. 273 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,480 This is what he say by seed. Genesis 315 And I will put 274 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,319 enmity between thee and the woman. 275 00:17:07,319 --> 00:17:10,800 So man has fallen and God's coming on the scene to let you 276 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,079 know what he going to do about it. 277 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,400 He said, I, I will put enmity between thee and the woman and 278 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,800 between thy seed and her seed, and it shall bruise thy head. 279 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,079 Her seed. Who's her seed? 280 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,079 Who's her seed? Who's her seed? 281 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,760 Christmas Adam is her seed. He said they're going to come a 282 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,280 seed from you. He's going to bruise the head of 283 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,160 the enemy. Christmas Adam. 284 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,640 God gave us a Christmas Adam, but he also gave us a Christmas 285 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,800 seed as well. So can you say with me one time 286 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:47,160 victory seed. Oh, yeah, there's faith in the 287 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,440 room now. He says this Genesis, Galatians 288 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:56,080 3, not to Adam and his seed, where the promises made everyone 289 00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,200 say Christmas seed. He said not. 290 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,480 He saith King James, reverence to the King James on Christmas 291 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,560 Eve. Yeah, that ain't gonna remember. 292 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,640 He saith not. And to seeds as of many, but as 293 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:15,480 of 1 and to thy seed, which is Christ, he says, saying this is 294 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,720 the seed, Adam. This is Christmas, Adam. 295 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,480 It's also a Christmas seed. You need to know what you're 296 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,040 dealing with. It's not just the baby you got. 297 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:28,840 You got a Christmas seed. Can you say victory seed for me? 298 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,160 Two times? Yeah, that's what I'm talking 299 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,560 about. What God is telling you is this 300 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,680 from Genesis to Revelation, He said, listen, I'm gonna send a 301 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,880 victory seed on Christmas Day. I'm gonna send you a Christmas 302 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:48,720 Adam and a victory seed. There should never be a day you 303 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,960 think about Christmas celebration, brother. 304 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,320 This ain't the time of year of this that don't nobody know. 305 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,200 What time of nothing is not about the time. 306 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,520 It's about the remembrance, you see, it'll never be a day you 307 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,440 remember Christmas Eve and don't remember my Christmas seed. 308 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,480 Think more of a Christmas Adam and a Christmas seed than a 309 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,960 Christmas baby. You know why? 310 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,200 How long was Jesus a baby? Any doctors in the house? 311 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,480 Baby, I think is categorized as the first 12 months. 312 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,400 Jesus is Christmas Adam for eternity, and he's our Christmas 313 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,640 seed for eternity. Why are you going to focus on 314 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:30,000 how he came for 12 months rather than how he is for eternity on 315 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,440 Christmas? You got a Christmas Adam and you 316 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:40,160 got a Christmas seed. Jesus was a seed, not a sample. 317 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,640 John 1224 says this. I assure you, most solemnly, I 318 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:51,120 tell you, listen up, listen up. Unless a grain of wheat, a seed, 319 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:56,400 falls into the earth and dies, it remains just one grain. 320 00:19:57,120 --> 00:20:00,280 It never becomes more, but lives by itself alone. 321 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,280 See, a sample lives by itself alone. 322 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,200 A seed falls to the earth and dies. 323 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,560 A sample, that's all you got is a sample. 324 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,640 It never becomes nothing. Anything more but a seed has the 325 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,760 potential in it to do more than just be a sample. 326 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:25,480 Seeds live by dying. Seeds live by dying. 327 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,960 Now I want to get into this and I don't want to get into too 328 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,480 much history with this, but I want y'all to get schooled up to 329 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,320 let y'all know what y'all faith is built on. 330 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,400 God is not anti intellect or anti knowledge, but he's more 331 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,600 God than he is knowledge. You feel me? 332 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,880 OK Seeds live by dying. Now here's the picture of the 333 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,920 Manger. We always think about that. 334 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,760 Ain't the Manger. OK, here's the picture of the 335 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,400 Manger. That's the picture of the 336 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,080 Manger. See, back in those days, mangers 337 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,680 were stone pieces like that. Now, to me, that looked more 338 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:06,960 like a tomb than it does a A hay loft looks like more like a tomb 339 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,680 than a hay loft, a burial chamber than a hay loft. 340 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,280 And if you know anything about swabbing clothes, you shall find 341 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,160 a babe wrapped in swabbing clothes instead on Charlie Brown 342 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:21,400 lightness. OK, Swabbing clothes are linens 343 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,000 that wrap the baby's arms around tight. 344 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,720 Today, if you didn't look closely, you could confuse 345 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,680 swaddling clothes with burial clothes if you didn't look 346 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:34,560 closely. So God gives us Christmas seed, 347 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,560 wraps it in burial cloth and puts it in a tomb, in a grave to 348 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,880 let you know that this seed going to fall into the ground 349 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,880 and die. I'm telling you now, it's a 350 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,880 seed. It ain't meant to buy the loan. 351 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,600 It's meant to bring a harvest. And I'm going to tell you, see, 352 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,000 see here's this House of God's, a hip hop goddess levels of this 353 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,880 thing. See hip hop takes one picture 354 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,240 and flips 5 understandings off of it. 355 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,040 Because while that's a grave, it's also stone. 356 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,800 And then Bible says water shall come out the rock in the Old 357 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,800 Testament. So living water will come out 358 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,920 the stone as well. And and while it's a stone 359 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,000 grave, if you know my daddy was a pharmacist, I get my bad 360 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,080 handwriting from him. If you don't think about 361 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,840 pharmacy, what you say is this, you got a mortise and a pestle. 362 00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:23,720 You put the things in a little stone ground thing, contain them 363 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,440 and you kind of ground it up like that. 364 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,320 That's called healing. Healing come out this thing too, 365 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,400 OK. And if you ever have some good, 366 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,080 some good salsa or some good guacamole made, they'll put a 367 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,520 little stone little bowl there and take a pestle like that and 368 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,520 make the food up, the bread of life come out this too. 369 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,040 I'm telling you, God is a hip hop God. 370 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,320 He did it all in this that's flipping and far exceeded when 371 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:52,760 you understand it, you got to understand this here. 372 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,240 Next picture, see see what a Manger was typically it was 373 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,000 under a house on the lower parts. 374 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,200 OK, it was underneath the upper deck. 375 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,360 The Manger was underneath the upper deck. 376 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,240 Sound a lot like nowhere to me. When you have an ark, you have 377 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,760 all the animals underneath the upper deck, see, because he was 378 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,760 also the Lamb of God, see? And this is where they keep all 379 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,520 the animals at right here too. So he was also the Lamb of 380 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,920 God-given for the salvation of the world. 381 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,920 Flipping and far exceeded seeds live not by just by dying, but 382 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:36,200 they also live by multiplying. If a seed they multiplying, it 383 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,280 was a dead seed. But Jesus is an incorruptible 384 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,000 seed. That means it's always going to 385 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,880 multiply. You take incorruptible seed, put 386 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,920 it on the ground, and you do this on it and plant it. 387 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,160 What you get harvest. Why? 388 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,680 Because the incorruptible seed can't be crushed, can't be 389 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,800 killed, can't be manipulated, can't be deceived. 390 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,480 Incorruptible seed will always multiply. 391 00:24:02,120 --> 00:24:05,440 Seeds live by multiplying, I assure you. 392 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,680 Most solemnly, I tell you, Unless a grain of weed falls to 393 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,560 the earth and dies and remains alone, we read this. 394 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:19,040 Look at the bottom for emphasis. But if it dies, it produces many 395 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:27,640 others discipleship and years. A rich harvest, That's 396 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,280 generations to come. That's bumper crop. 397 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,840 That's more than enough. See a rich harvest and a rich 398 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,520 harvest. If you don't have enough to take 399 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,760 from your harvest and seed the next growing cycle. 400 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,960 A rich harvest will never leave you with just enough. 401 00:24:42,120 --> 00:24:45,080 It'll always leave you more for the next generation and the next 402 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,880 iteration. That's a rich harvest. 403 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,320 Seeds live by multiplying. Now seeds lives by transforming. 404 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,440 Everyone say transforming that is one what y'all got to pull. 405 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,160 1st Corinthians 15 says this. You foolish man. 406 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,000 Every time you plant seeds, they seed. 407 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,640 You sow something that does not come to life unless it dies 408 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,720 first. Y'all got that concept right? 409 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:17,560 Nor is the seeds you sow then the body which is going which it 410 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:22,840 is going to have later. Nor is the seeds you sow the 411 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:27,440 body it is going to have later. But it is a naked kernel. 412 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,960 Came into the world naked anyway, perhaps of wheat or some 413 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:38,040 of the rest of the grains. So the what you sow, it's not 414 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,680 going to have the same body as later verse 42 says. 415 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:48,240 So it is with resurrection. God is telling us I gave you 416 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,680 seed and sowing to remind you of resurrection. 417 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,400 That's why there's so much fight against sowing and reaping, 418 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,720 because if I can get you off of sowing, I can get you off of 419 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,480 resurrection. The seed is supposed the way we 420 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,840 do our bread and our juice to remember Jesus. 421 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,040 Every time we give, we're supposed to remember 422 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,600 resurrection. So it is with resurrection of 423 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,280 the dead. The body that is sown is 424 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,200 perishable and decays, but the body that is resurrected is 425 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,840 imperishable. Verse 44, it says this. 426 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:24,760 It is sown a natural body. It is raised a supernatural 427 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,040 body. There's a transformation that 428 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:31,880 happens and it's with a seed. You saw one thing it comes up 429 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:36,640 something else. But how do you know it's really 430 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:41,760 apprised to Christ? The next verse everyone say next 431 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,600 verse say hold on real quick before I go there say man y'all 432 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,320 take stuff out of context. Y'all don't give enough from the 433 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,040 Bible man y'all just making it up. 434 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,440 Y'all picking what you want. Everyone say next verse that's 435 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,280 context. Verse 45. 436 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,560 Thus it is written, the first man, Adam, became a living 437 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,040 being. The last Adam became a life 438 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:08,640 giving spirit. Context says what you sow ain't 439 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,280 what you reap. Remember that every time you 440 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,400 give, because I'm reminding you of resurrection, you sow a 441 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,960 dollar and reap peace. You sow beyond your time and 442 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,160 reap joy and restoration. Remember that because you will 443 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,200 sow a dead life and you will reap a resurrected body and a 444 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:31,280 resurrected life. That's why I brought the second 445 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:35,520 Adam, because the second Adam, his mission in coming was to be 446 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:43,840 that resurrection Adam, to remind you always, and this is 447 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,520 how important it is and how essential it is to the gospel. 448 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,040 Our seed and our sowing should activate resurrection power. 449 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,440 Acts 4 says this now the company of believers, it was of one 450 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,520 heart and soul. Not one of them claimed anything 451 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,440 which he possessed exclusively. He has his own, but everything 452 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,200 they had was in common for use of all that's called sewing. 453 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:15,840 So they sewed next verse says, and with great strength and 454 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,720 ability and power. The apostles, the apostles 455 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,200 delivered their testimony to the resurrection and it interesting, 456 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,720 he says right here, they're sewing in power going to talk 457 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,920 about the resurrection. Every time they sowed it 458 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,680 reminded them of the resurrection. 459 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,120 Every time they gave it reminded them of the resurrection. 460 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,160 But but say, but wait, there's more. 461 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:45,320 Verse 34 says there was no destitute or needy person among 462 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,160 them for as many as owners of lands or houses proceeded to 463 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,960 sell them. They gave generously and in 464 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,360 doing so they were reminded of resurrection. 465 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,960 That my life, this I'm giving this seed is going to be 466 00:28:59,960 --> 00:29:02,200 something different. My life was something and it's 467 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,720 going to be something different. There's a resurrection for my 468 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,680 body coming. There's a resurrection for my 469 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,120 life coming. Resurrection is here for me now 470 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:10,680 and here for it's still on the way. 471 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,960 They they remember resurrection and remembering resurrection 472 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,160 through giving cause them to to sacrifice. 473 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:30,360 It says they took lands and sold them right now this is really 474 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,040 key. And laid it at the feet of the 475 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:38,880 apostles. The response to the sacrifice 476 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,680 you're giving based on resurrection was it take the 477 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,520 sacrifices giving laid at the feet of the apostles. 478 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,640 Is it any wonder why folks say they don't want no more apostles 479 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,600 these days? You missing a link in the chain 480 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,320 of how you activate what God is doing. 481 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,320 If I can tell you ain't no apostles for today, then you 482 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,680 cancel out this scripture automatic that was for then that 483 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,920 was for that time. But if I only if you understand 484 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,520 there's a pattern that God has here. 485 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,520 Why sacrifice and lay that the apostles feed because the 486 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,440 apostles got his grace to give order to the building and 487 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,560 construction of the body and the Kingdom and the government. 488 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:25,680 Every government needs resources to run on say Christmas Eve and 489 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,160 it says this now Joseph of Levite say Levite. 490 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:34,120 Levite was the old religious order for all you think that 491 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,760 preacher shouldn't have no had nothing. 492 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,480 It says Joseph of Levite sold his field. 493 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,360 Why you angry? Because preachers got fields, 494 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,520 maybe God gave them to him to sacrificially so remembering 495 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,640 resurrection so the body can be advanced. 496 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,800 It says now Joseph of Levite sold the fields belong to him 497 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,520 and he brought the sum of money later to the apostles feed. 498 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,400 What you see is covenants coming together, old covenant and new 499 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,680 covenant, old priests and the new order of how God's going to 500 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,560 administrate his government. He's saying this cycle will bind 501 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,760 all the glory of the old covenant that with all the power 502 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,960 and the revelation of the new covenant and together they'll 503 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,720 walk forward to accomplish more than either one of them can do 504 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:19,120 by itself. So this Christmas, Adam, this 505 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:28,520 Christmas seed is exactly why we cede our victory now. 506 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,000 Y'all gonna read y'all? Y'all gonna play. 507 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,120 It's not even close. It's not even close. 508 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,880 We cede our victory. It's not even close. 509 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,840 Death can't stop him. We saw our victory. 510 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,480 It's not even close. Death can't stop him. 511 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,360 We sing our victory. It's not even close. 512 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,400 Death can't stop him, we declare our victory. 513 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,640 It's not even close. I'm telling you, death and hell 514 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,600 can't stop him. So This is why we can declare 515 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:59,080 like First Corinthians 15 says, oh death, resurrection, where's 516 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,040 your victory? Oh death, where's your sting? 517 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:08,480 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory, making us 518 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,960 through our Lord Jesus Christ, our Christmas seed. 519 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,520 Christmas is victory seed. Tom, can you say with me victory 520 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,760 seed for me 10 times. Victory seed, victory seed, 521 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:26,680 victory seed, victory seed, victory seed, victory seed, 522 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:31,440 victory seed, victory seed, victory seed, victory seed. 523 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,960 Hey man, you said bro, why you said that 10 times? 524 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,880 Why you said that 10 times? Because the year starts now. 525 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,600 Why you said that 10 times? We shot at God. 526 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,520 Give us the budget. Why you said that 10 times? 527 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,000 God revivals coming to the land. Why you say that 10 times? 528 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,960 See in the Old Testament, the the prophet that got the king 529 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,440 shot an arrow and only struck the ground six times. 530 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,080 And the prophet said, ah, why you do that? 531 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,960 Because you only did it from me, did it three times. 532 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:06,480 Because you only did it three times. 533 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,560 You have a measure of victory, but you won't have far exceeding 534 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:15,200 victory. I wish you had done it 5 or 6 or 535 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:20,800 7 or maybe even 10 times. Because in the 10 times you'll 536 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,200 find perfection. In the 10 times you'll find 537 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,200 completion, In the 10 times you'll find far exceeding what 538 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:32,480 God's trying to do. So on this Christmas Eve, 539 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:37,560 remember there's really more about a Christmas Adam and a 540 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,200 Christmas seed than it is about a Christmas Eve. 541 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,920 And remember that your seeds should remind you of 542 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,120 resurrection. Every time you give, you ought 543 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,000 to have resurrection on your mind. 544 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:56,800 Resurrection power, resurrection life, resurrection freedom, 545 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,920 resurrection, deliverance, resurrection that. 546 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,640 And I'm going to tell you this. And if you don't have 547 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,040 resurrection on your mind when you give, then all you doing it 548 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,440 for is about the money, not the people you giving to. 549 00:34:10,639 --> 00:34:13,080 Let's pray.

I really pray that you guys got 657 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,880 the prophetic parts of the. Thank you, Thank you. 658 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:14,600 Thank you, Elder John. Yeah, there's so many parts. 659 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:15,840 I see. Yes. 660 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,800 Elder John. Elder Roseanne, your husband has 661 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:24,280 crossed into the victorious man you always knew he was supposed 662 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:29,800 to be and be. And I got everything that you 663 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:33,120 laid down. Stuff that wasn't said is the 664 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,800 most important stuff. But you was talking right there. 665 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,400 And I'm glad I moved out the way because I wouldn't have found 666 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,000 that word. I would have had one, but it 667 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,920 wouldn't have been that. But just want to leave you with 668 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:52,720 a couple thoughts. Adam wasn't chosen, he was 669 00:46:52,720 --> 00:46:56,840 created. This is powerful. 670 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:05,410 You were chosen. Like when? 671 00:47:05,530 --> 00:47:07,690 When Elder John is giving those graphics to how we see 672 00:47:07,690 --> 00:47:09,530 ourselves. We can walk on the mountain. 673 00:47:09,530 --> 00:47:15,450 The mountain can't walk on us. We can. 674 00:47:15,450 --> 00:47:17,130 We can. We can ski skirt across the 675 00:47:17,130 --> 00:47:18,850 ocean. The fish can't ski skirt across 676 00:47:18,850 --> 00:47:22,010 the earth. We could fly in the airplanes, 677 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:27,880 right? It's not one reason any of you 678 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:31,400 in here should question who you are and be mad somebody don't 679 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:36,120 want to be with you or mad because a job rejects you. 680 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,640 Adam was created. You were chosen. 681 00:47:41,240 --> 00:47:43,600 Think about all the gifts that you are buying. 682 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:48,360 You have to make up your mind to choose who to give gifts to, and 683 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,960 everybody who's in your life ain't getting a gift. 684 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,920 You chose who to give a gift to. You chose what kind of gift you 685 00:47:55,920 --> 00:48:02,280 thought they were worthy of, and you thought about them, right? 686 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,560 Jesus was our gift from the Father. 687 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,960 God did not have to do it. Adam was the security deposit. 688 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:16,840 I don't believe God was caught off guard when Adam disobeyed or 689 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:18,680 he would have went to him like he did Peter. 690 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,120 He told Peter you was going to fail. 691 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,280 He said, Adam, you have a choice to fall, and because you have a 692 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:31,200 choice, I have a son. Think about a security deposit. 693 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:35,600 What is it put up for in case there's damages? 694 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,720 So Jesus didn't come as the seed of death per SE. 695 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:49,160 He had to die because Adam died. Jesus was born resurrected King, 696 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:54,640 Come on. Jesus was born incorruptible. 697 00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,840 If he wasn't incorruptible, he wouldn't have made it through 698 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:01,800 the cross and the sacrifice wouldn't count it. 699 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:06,120 Mary human being carried incorruptible in our boom. 700 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,040 I'm telling you this next year, what we're about to step into is 701 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,840 what God is about to do. It is what he's about to bring. 702 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:18,080 Your life will be incorruptible every blessing the what God's 703 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,960 about to do in your bloodline. It will not be taken out your 704 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:26,000 bloodline until Jesus return. Am I talking to anybody right 705 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,960 this you need Bible. You should have been here the 706 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,480 other day but he says your shame will be no more. 707 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,400 You understand this you're pregnant with incorruptible 708 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:40,520 gifts and blessings. OK, so This is why this next 709 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,640 year is going to be very careful, a very a very good one. 710 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:48,480 And we got to be very careful. And then you said, Elder John 711 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:53,720 about the way to see goes down. It's going to come back far 712 00:49:53,720 --> 00:49:57,160 exceeding. And I just wrote down this 713 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,440 simple little thing. It won't come up the way it went 714 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,920 down. Now, you know, if you urban, you 715 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,320 heard people say, man, that's how it went down. 716 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,840 You were molested, that's how it went down. 717 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:17,720 Divorce, rejected, abandoned, that's how it went down. 718 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,480 Fire, that's how it went down. You failed a few times, that's 719 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,000 how it went down. Your parents abandoned you, 720 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,560 that's how it went down. You was addicted to drugs one 721 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,480 day, but that's how it went down, right? 722 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:33,960 I'm preaching right now, that's why I get you. 723 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,080 So right now, if you listen to what I said before, you'd be 724 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,600 shouting already because I said the way it went down ain't the 725 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:44,760 way it's about to come up. Right. 726 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,120 I was born in a single parent household, that's how it went 727 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,800 down. But my kids is born with two 728 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,040 parents in this house. The way it go down ain't the way 729 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,440 it's coming up. Come on. 730 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,760 Say that the way it went down ain't the way it's about to come 731 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:07,280 up. Stand to your feet. 732 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,960 I don't care how it went down in 2024-2025, it ain't coming up 733 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:18,440 that way. Give your neighbor a high five, 734 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:21,760 say the way it went down ain't the way it's coming up. 735 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,000 Your marriage suffered for a little while. 736 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,800 That's how it went down. But moving forward, your 737 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:38,760 marriage is on the come up. The way it went down ain't the 738 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:46,560 way it's about to come up. And then as you sow today on 739 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:52,000 your way out, as you sow today on your way out, we give to keep 740 00:51:52,640 --> 00:52:02,120 getting a greater seed. We don't sow for a harvest, we 741 00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:10,000 sow for a seed, it said. It says when you sow a seed it 742 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,080 goes in the ground and die. And what comes up? 743 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:15,120 More seed. So you've been looking at your 744 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,200 harvest as something that you keep. 745 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,640 No, God's giving you a greater seed to sow. 746 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,200 So this year you was only able to sow 20 in the ground, but the 747 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,920 harvest is going to allow you next year to sow 1000. 748 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,880 And in order to have a greater seed, you got to have a greater 749 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,240 harvest. So I'm going to leave for. 750 00:52:37,240 --> 00:52:40,600 Greater seed that says. My mind is on being a greater 751 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,440 sower versus. A greater receiver. 752 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,560 Say the way it went down ain't the way it's about to come up. 753 00:52:52,240 --> 00:52:54,880 You have a wonderful, wonderful Merry Christmas. 754 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,920 I will see you New Year's Eve now when you come here. 755 00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:59,960 New Year's Eve. Come here expecting. 756 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,120 Come here with your running shoes on. 757 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:08,800 Come here with a new attitude. Come here ready to tear off the 758 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,520 roof because the King's in the house. 759 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:16,520 Just lead me to Jesus. I don't care how. 760 00:53:17,240 --> 00:53:19,320 Amen. Have a wonderful time with your 761 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:22,360 family. Don't let your crazy uncle take 762 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:23,840 your peace. Or crazy Mama. 763 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,040 Whoever it is. Don't let nobody take your 764 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:30,000 peace. You are free from guilt, you are 765 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,320 free from condemnation, and you are free from people 766 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:37,360 misunderstanding you. Huh. 767 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:40,880 Oh yeah, we going to see you next Sunday. 768 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:46,960 We will have experience at 9:00 AM and at 11:30, no evening 769 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,800 experience.
