1
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:07,900
So, you can turn in your Bibles 
to Genesis chapter 1. 

2
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,900
Taking it to the beginning. 
We did that last week. 

3
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,200
Genesis chapter 1 as we continue
our series called the basics and

4
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,400
we really are keeping it basic 
through this series not, not 

5
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,300
getting complicated. 
Now getting fancy, we're not 

6
00:00:34,300 --> 00:00:38,500
doing any biblical gymnastics up
in here. we're just sticking 

7
00:00:38,500 --> 00:00:43,700
with kindergarten sticking, with
the ABCs we've talked about Now,

8
00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:45,500
I don't know if I can name them.
All better. 

9
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,500
We got a few and lucky. 
And the hopper talk about Sunday

10
00:00:48,500 --> 00:00:52,700
worship. 
We've talked about, we did a 

11
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,800
sermon on faith. 
We did a sermon on the kingdom 

12
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,200
of God and the mission of God 
that was last week. 

13
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,700
What else are we done? 
somebody's got their notes, and 

14
00:01:02,700 --> 00:01:05,400
they're going to be able to just
I don't think so. 

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,500
No, that was then. 
Faith Message though. 

16
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,300
We're talking about receiving by
faith. 

17
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,700
I figured somebody would have 
their notebook and be like, I'm 

18
00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:20,600
down. 
I'm all done more than three 

19
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:22,900
last week was the mission of 
God. 

20
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:37,700
We laughing at. 
So today for the basics, we're 

21
00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:41,500
doing male and female. 
Can't get much more basic. 

22
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:49,000
So we're in Genesis chapter 1. 
I want to read to you from verse

23
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000
27 and we're also going to go to
Genesis chapter 2. 

24
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,800
So we'll be here for a while. 
So God created, man in his own 

25
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,200
image. 
In the image of God, he created 

26
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,500
him male and female he created 
them. 

27
00:02:05,700 --> 00:02:08,400
So right away in Genesis we see 
the Lord's design. 

28
00:02:08,699 --> 00:02:11,600
You know when you read Genesis 
and when you talk about a sermon

29
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,300
like this it can feel what's the
point. 

30
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:16,300
This is so obvious, this is so 
basic. 

31
00:02:16,500 --> 00:02:20,300
Well, I'm sure for thousands of 
years in church history, they 

32
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:22,900
didn't they probably didn't see 
the value of y. 

33
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:25,100
The Lord would have said this in
the word. 

34
00:02:25,100 --> 00:02:29,300
Why did he need to say male and 
female he created them. 

35
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,700
But we're of course in this 
moment in the day and age we 

36
00:02:31,700 --> 00:02:33,300
live in. 
We're very thankful that the 

37
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:36,300
Lord was very plain and very 
clear with Distinctions that he 

38
00:02:36,300 --> 00:02:37,000
made. 
Why? 

39
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,200
Because we always want what what
his ideal is and if the world 

40
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,500
has something different to 
offer, well, if we don't have 

41
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:48,000
the word of God to stand on, 
then it we might consider that 

42
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,200
an area where we have freedom 
and that might genuinely be 

43
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,400
okay, except that the word of 
God has a distinction. 

44
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,600
We can generally assume that we 
are okay. 

45
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,000
That we do have freedom, the 
body of Christ has lots of 

46
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Freedom, the world has been 
given lots of freedom but there,

47
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,900
but there. 
Our perimeters, the Lord has 

48
00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:09,000
given us a box. 
He says, you'll do. 

49
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,700
These are the perimeters, you 
can do anything in here, but if 

50
00:03:11,700 --> 00:03:13,200
you leave this box, it's called 
sin. 

51
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,800
It's sin against God. 
It's unacceptable. 

52
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,800
So, this bought, well, I don't 
want to stay in a box, I want 

53
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,700
true Freedom. 
Now, this is true Freedom. 

54
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:25,100
This is what the best looks like
outside of the box brings 

55
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:28,100
catastrophe outside of the box 
brings damage. 

56
00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:32,100
So that's not actually Freedom. 
It's inside where you can bring 

57
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:34,100
freedom. 
So we understand this very 

58
00:03:34,100 --> 00:03:37,000
quickly and very easily when we 
think about Out our children, or

59
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:39,500
for those of us who don't have 
children yet, we know that when 

60
00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:42,000
we were children, our parents 
provided perimeters and 

61
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,800
parameters because of their love
and they didn't let us walk out 

62
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,000
into the highway and say, I want
to be a free kid. 

63
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,600
I'm gonna do whatever I want, 
well, but I love you. 

64
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:52,600
So I'm not gonna like you walk 
into the road. 

65
00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:55,400
This is the same way that the 
Lord sees all of his children. 

66
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,900
Well, I want to do whatever I 
want. 

67
00:03:56,900 --> 00:03:59,400
Well, I understand that's a 
normal desire. 

68
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,400
That's your flesh that your 
selfishness, and that's your 

69
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,500
tendency. 
But as your heavenly father, I 

70
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:07,800
have commands And expectations 
to say you need to do what I 

71
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,900
want. 
Well, that's selfish of you. 

72
00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:12,800
Well, you would think so again 
in your immaturity, but it's 

73
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,600
actually for your good as well. 
So, it does honor me because 

74
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,399
that's a priority, but it's also
actually what's best for you? 

75
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:21,200
I'm not taking something from 
you. 

76
00:04:21,500 --> 00:04:24,100
I'm giving something to you. 
Well, I don't see it that way. 

77
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,100
Spoken like a child spoken, like
a sinner spoken, like a human. 

78
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,700
But me being God. 
And you being not God. 

79
00:04:32,300 --> 00:04:36,900
I will direct and I will Define 
what the There's are so the Lord

80
00:04:36,900 --> 00:04:41,000
created them male and female. 
We see in creation. 

81
00:04:41,100 --> 00:04:44,100
God loves making distinctions. 
He loves it. 

82
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,300
God is so big. 
He's so vast. 

83
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:49,600
He's so infinite. 
He had to make all of this. 

84
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,700
He had to make the varieties 
that he made. 

85
00:04:51,900 --> 00:04:55,900
He had to go so far and so far 
beyond some people get hung up 

86
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:58,400
on things like the the expanse 
of the universe. 

87
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,800
Like but if it's all just doing 
this, tiny little blue dot cold 

88
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,900
Earth and why even this and why 
even that and Some of those 

89
00:05:05,900 --> 00:05:08,600
things are out of our 
jurisdiction but also if you can

90
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,000
be humble enough to answer it 
like a sheep, who knows how to 

91
00:05:12,100 --> 00:05:14,800
listen to The Shepherd. 
You can just recognize because 

92
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,200
he's God because he's big and 
because he's creative and 

93
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,000
because he wants distinctions 
because he wants black holes to 

94
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,400
suck in light, and he wants a 
son to create the brightness. 

95
00:05:24,700 --> 00:05:27,700
He wants all of these things, he
made them, he made these 

96
00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:31,600
distinctions, he made deserts, 
and he made jungles, he made 

97
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,100
mountains, and he made valleys, 
he made glaciers and he made 

98
00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:37,700
desert. 
He made birds that fly, and he 

99
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:41,200
made fish that swim. 
He made the cheetah that Sprints

100
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,500
and he made the slug that 
crawls. 

101
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,800
He made man and his strength. 
He made woman in her beauty, and

102
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,000
it all brings him glory, and 
it's all perfect for us, it's 

103
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,100
perfect. 
There's no Brokenness, There's 

104
00:05:54,100 --> 00:05:56,000
no distinction. 
Well, I feel differently about 

105
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,700
it, right? 
Spoken like a human, but when we

106
00:05:59,700 --> 00:06:02,100
can submit ourselves, and when 
we bring ourselves back under 

107
00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:04,500
his covering, that's where the 
blessings are again. 

108
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:07,200
We see this with our Children, 
we understand parents. 

109
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,800
You love your kids, so you do 
what's best for them? 

110
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:12,700
It's not always the thing that 
they would choose, but it's 

111
00:06:12,700 --> 00:06:15,900
always the thing that you 
believe, that's best for them. 

112
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,800
So, our maleness and our 
femaleness is God's design and 

113
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,000
it goes from the visible body 
parts, the obvious things right 

114
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,900
from the boy parts and girl 
parts all the way down to our 

115
00:06:28,900 --> 00:06:32,700
invisible chromosomes. 
But it goes further, it goes all

116
00:06:32,700 --> 00:06:34,800
the way into our invisible 
Souls. 

117
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,900
So Binary design of male and 
female is not something that we 

118
00:06:38,900 --> 00:06:41,000
can miss. 
It's not something that's absent

119
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,900
from the scripture. 
All throughout the word of God, 

120
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,900
male and female distinctions are
made the Bible clearly defines 

121
00:06:46,900 --> 00:06:50,200
God as being male, but he 
doesn't make a spectrum of 

122
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,800
gender. 
Regardless of what anyone else 

123
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,000
may say? 
Well, how do you know? 

124
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,000
Well, because we trust the word 
of God. 

125
00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:59,700
So, these conversations when we 
think about it in culture and 

126
00:06:59,700 --> 00:07:03,400
today, I don't want to just be a
preaching to the choir message. 

127
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,400
Just like we prayed at the 
beginning, this is not. 

128
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,000
Not a yeah. 
Look at them. 

129
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,000
Yeah, they are they definitely 
are in Rebellion. 

130
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,700
There's no question about that, 
but that's what the world does. 

131
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,400
If you don't know God, you hate 
God. 

132
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,500
You are Godless, you're going to
live in Rebellion to him. 

133
00:07:18,500 --> 00:07:20,400
Well, what's the solution? 
Well, the solution is the 

134
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,200
gospel. 
The solution is the word of God,

135
00:07:23,500 --> 00:07:27,300
telling people the truth, why? 
Well, because the word of God is

136
00:07:27,300 --> 00:07:28,800
sharper than any two-edged 
sword. 

137
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,100
It's the very thing that can cut
them. 

138
00:07:30,100 --> 00:07:32,800
Open for their good. 
It's the surgery. 

139
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,300
It's not the sword that can just
stab him to kill. 

140
00:07:35,900 --> 00:07:38,200
But think of it more as the 
scalpel that can open them up 

141
00:07:38,500 --> 00:07:41,500
and then remove their Stony 
heart and put in the heart of 

142
00:07:41,500 --> 00:07:44,400
Flesh that they God wants to put
in so that people would be 

143
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:49,700
softened and see God's goodness.
So flip over to Genesis chapter 

144
00:07:49,700 --> 00:07:51,700
2. 
Now we're going to read from 

145
00:07:51,700 --> 00:07:56,200
Verse 18 through 24. 
Genesis 1 gives the account of 

146
00:07:56,208 --> 00:07:58,800
Creation in Genesis 2. 
Gives it a different model. 

147
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,300
Gives it a different way as 
Moses continued to right here. 

148
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:10,600
Genesis 2:18. 
Then the Lord God said, it is 

149
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,500
not good that the man should be 
alone. 

150
00:08:12,500 --> 00:08:16,100
I will make a helper fit for 
him. 

151
00:08:16,100 --> 00:08:19,800
Now, out of the ground, the Lord
God had formed every beast of 

152
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,400
the field and every bird of the 
heavens and brought them to the 

153
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:24,800
man, to see what he would call 
them. 

154
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,800
And whatever the man called 
every living creature. 

155
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,700
That was its name. 
The man gave names to all 

156
00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:35,100
livestock and to the birds of 
the heavens and to every beast 

157
00:08:35,107 --> 00:08:38,299
of the field. 
But for Adam, there was not 

158
00:08:38,299 --> 00:08:40,100
found. 
Found a helper fit for him. 

159
00:08:40,900 --> 00:08:45,400
So the Lord God caused a deep 
sleep to fall upon the man and 

160
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,600
while he slept, he took one of 
his ribs and closed up its place

161
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,800
with flesh and the rib that the 
Lord God had taken from the man 

162
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:57,500
he made into a woman and brought
her to the man. 

163
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,600
Then the man said this at last 
is bone of my bones and Flesh of

164
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,300
My Flesh. 
She shall be called woman 

165
00:09:06,500 --> 00:09:11,200
because she was taken out of Of 
man, therefore a man shall 

166
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,500
leave. 
His father and mother his male 

167
00:09:14,500 --> 00:09:18,800
and female and hold fast to his 
wife and they shall become one 

168
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,100
flesh. 
And the man, and his wife were 

169
00:09:21,100 --> 00:09:24,500
both naked, and they were not 
ashamed. 

170
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,300
Back up to verse 18, it's not 
good for man to be alone. 

171
00:09:29,900 --> 00:09:33,100
God said everything that was he 
had made was good, he did this. 

172
00:09:33,100 --> 00:09:35,600
It says and he said it was very 
good, he did this and it was 

173
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:36,600
good, he did this and it was 
good. 

174
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,000
Then at the end, it was very 
good and then we have the first 

175
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,000
not good. 
But this is weird because God 

176
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,600
made everything and he calls 
everything good but he found 

177
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,400
something. 
He says this isn't good, what's 

178
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,700
not good? 
It's not good. 

179
00:09:47,700 --> 00:09:51,500
That man should be alone. 
Why is it not good for man to be

180
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:54,900
alone because God had plans like
we learned last week? 

181
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:58,100
God had plans to expand and to 
multiply for starters. 

182
00:09:58,700 --> 00:10:02,000
Adam could not expand and 
multiply by himself, and because

183
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,900
Adam also needed a companion. 
Adam needed his counterpart. 

184
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,400
He needed his compliment. 
Loneliness is not good. 

185
00:10:09,900 --> 00:10:12,600
This is why the most severe 
punishment that we can give to 

186
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,700
someone to keep them alive. 
Anyway, is solitary confinement.

187
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,400
This guy's already in prison. 
We want to punish him even more.

188
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,300
How can we punish him even more?
Let's make him go be alone. 

189
00:10:23,700 --> 00:10:26,100
Let's lock him up in. 
In isolation, why? 

190
00:10:26,100 --> 00:10:27,700
Because it's not good for man to
be alone. 

191
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:31,400
So, let's put him in isolation 
where he can suffer even more 

192
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,800
greatly. 
And God brings everything to 

193
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,300
Adam to let him. 
Look, I'll name the animals, 

194
00:10:37,300 --> 00:10:39,400
I'll name the animals, but a 
companion. 

195
00:10:39,500 --> 00:10:41,000
A helper wasn't found fit for 
him. 

196
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,200
The dog that was as close as 
they could get me this hill. 

197
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,100
This thing will obey this thing 
will fetch my slippers. 

198
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:49,500
This guy who go get the 
newspaper each morning. 

199
00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:52,300
You know, I can train him to sit
and come and go. 

200
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:56,400
I like this guy but he's still 
Still not quite right? 

201
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,000
It's still not, it's still not 
what I'm looking for, Lord. 

202
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,500
So he brings the woman to him. 
So why else is it not good for 

203
00:11:05,500 --> 00:11:09,100
man to be alone because the 
creation itself needed Eve's 

204
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:15,900
gifts and Eve's calling as a 
woman because Adam and Eve are 

205
00:11:15,900 --> 00:11:19,100
different, not just because of 
their genitalia. 

206
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,800
Although their genitalia is the 
most obvious and first clue, 

207
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,500
their nakedness would have shown
very See Clearly who was who and

208
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:29,900
what was what one being more 
muscular and hard-won, being 

209
00:11:29,900 --> 00:11:32,600
more feminine and curvy and 
soft. 

210
00:11:32,900 --> 00:11:36,300
Again, this is the Lord's, good 
distinctions that he loves to 

211
00:11:36,300 --> 00:11:41,400
make and he calls it very good. 
But the world needed Eve's 

212
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,000
gifting and calling as she and 
Adam would fill and subdue the 

213
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,900
Earth together. 
What else do we see Happening 

214
00:11:47,900 --> 00:11:50,500
Here? 
We see the issue of headship 

215
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:54,600
being established immediately. 
We see headship of husband and 

216
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,500
submission of wife being made. 
Plain from the very beginning. 

217
00:11:58,700 --> 00:12:04,900
How so who named Adam who gave 
adam is named God, did who named

218
00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:11,900
the animals Adam did who named 
Eve Adam did so naming in the 

219
00:12:11,900 --> 00:12:14,500
word of God always is a show of 
headship to name. 

220
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:20,400
Someone who names a baby who 
named who named Asher his 

221
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,500
parents biblically throughout 
history. 

222
00:12:22,500 --> 00:12:26,100
It's a very new thing for 
actually Chris. 

223
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:27,500
He's joking but it's a very new 
thing. 

224
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:30,500
When mama's name the baby all 
throughout human history. 

225
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,900
Fathers have named the children.
This has just been the way y so 

226
00:12:33,900 --> 00:12:36,300
we'll because the husband is the
head of his wife. 

227
00:12:36,700 --> 00:12:39,300
Well, I'm a powerful woman. 
I'll name my baby if I want to 

228
00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:42,500
well, spoken like a very modern 
American woman, but at the same 

229
00:12:42,500 --> 00:12:45,000
time not the most biblical 
perspective. 

230
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,300
This is not a hard case for you.
Have the father has to name the 

231
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:53,400
child but the it's funny how the
distinction is flipped entirely 

232
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,300
180, right? 
So it used to historically be 

233
00:12:56,300 --> 00:12:58,400
although it wasn't a Biblical 
command for the father to name, 

234
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:03,300
the child it was tradition. 
But now in the name of equality,

235
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:06,100
how do we get equal? 
What would equal means 50/50 

236
00:13:06,100 --> 00:13:09,100
right now? 
No equal means me do it also 

237
00:13:09,300 --> 00:13:11,600
it's that's hypocrisy and 
nonsense of course. 

238
00:13:11,700 --> 00:13:14,200
But what do we see? 
We see headship and submission 

239
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,700
taking place. 
What are we talking about today?

240
00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:18,400
We're talking about the basics 
male and female. 

241
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,200
What does it mean to be male? 
What does it mean to be female? 

242
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,800
What is the point of the male? 
What is the point of the female?

243
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:28,000
But in our day and age in 
particularly in the month of 

244
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,100
June? 
I saw fit and the Lord saw fit 

245
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:33,900
for us to talk about the 
distinctions of just the fact 

246
00:13:33,900 --> 00:13:36,400
that the Lord made them male and
female. 

247
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,200
There's a lot more than we could
say. 

248
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:39,800
That we won't have time to get 
into today. 

249
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,800
We won't get into the essence of
what is a man? 

250
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,200
We won't get into the essence, 
fully of what is a woman. 

251
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,100
But we are starting with the 
most obvious statements that 

252
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:49,900
there is a man, and there is a 
woman. 

253
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,900
So God, let's keep looking here.
God takes a rib. 

254
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,100
Why would God take a rib? 
Everything he does is on 

255
00:13:56,100 --> 00:13:58,000
purpose. 
Everything he does is with 

256
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,000
distinction. 
Nothing is just add. 

257
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,300
Which we do. 
We got to make stuff happen. 

258
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:02,800
Do we need a ribeye? 
We need this all. 

259
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,300
We need that. 
We just keep winging it nothing.

260
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:07,300
God is doing in. 
In is by accident. 

261
00:14:07,300 --> 00:14:10,600
It's all all of our Doctrine 
comes from Genesis Genesis, we 

262
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,300
said in seed form. 
It's not fully grown yet. 

263
00:14:13,300 --> 00:14:15,800
It's just a seed. 
Do you really have a doctrine of

264
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,300
headship just from that? 
Yeah. 

265
00:14:17,300 --> 00:14:19,300
How do you know? 
Well, because the New Testament 

266
00:14:19,300 --> 00:14:20,900
makes reference back to 
Creation. 

267
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,900
This is where all the New 
Testament Arguments for headship

268
00:14:23,900 --> 00:14:26,100
and submission are made not 
because well consider their 

269
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:28,500
cultural principles. 
Now it's always back in 

270
00:14:28,500 --> 00:14:30,400
creation. 
So we know how to interpret the 

271
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,200
Bible from the Bible but God 
takes a rib. 

272
00:14:33,500 --> 00:14:37,400
So woman came out of man, right 
but woman and man are not the 

273
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,100
same but woman came out of manso
was there. 

274
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,800
I think there's this Theory 
where Adam was just this 

275
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:47,500
androgynous creature who was 
neither male nor female, the 

276
00:14:47,500 --> 00:14:50,700
only problem with that is the 
Bible disagrees, if the Bible 

277
00:14:50,700 --> 00:14:53,700
didn't make it And if the Bible 
made it sound like that, then I 

278
00:14:53,708 --> 00:14:56,200
would go with that because 
that's what the Bible says. 

279
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,700
But remember this is always the 
authority church as 

280
00:14:59,700 --> 00:15:03,300
conversations happen as 
confusion continues to mount in 

281
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:07,300
our world, in our society. 
You don't have to have all of 

282
00:15:07,308 --> 00:15:10,800
the answers, you just have to 
trust the word of God. 

283
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,700
You just have to have faith in 
God's word. 

284
00:15:14,900 --> 00:15:17,100
This is where conversations will
always go next. 

285
00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:19,300
The word of God is ultimately 
the thing that always gets 

286
00:15:19,300 --> 00:15:21,900
attacked. 
So people will often hide behind

287
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:24,600
their lies. 
They'll pretend that they just 

288
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,200
see it differently. 
They'll pretend that they just 

289
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,300
feel a little bit differently 
but as you press the issue as 

290
00:15:29,300 --> 00:15:32,400
you continue to come back to 
lovingly but as you come back to

291
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,200
well the Bible clearly states, 
then what comes under attack is 

292
00:15:36,208 --> 00:15:40,100
the Bible itself. 
Well that was written by because

293
00:15:40,100 --> 00:15:42,800
they've seen like The DaVinci 
Code or something and they think

294
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,600
their biblical experts or You 
know, they've watched something 

295
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,500
on the History Channel and they 
know, and they think that aliens

296
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:51,200
wrote, the Bible, or whatever it
may be, or I grew up in the 

297
00:15:51,208 --> 00:15:56,000
church and my daddy was a pastor
or I was a pastor, don't listen 

298
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:00,500
to a backslider, do not take 
your theology, your advice and 

299
00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:04,200
how to follow King, Jesus from a
backslider OD saying I'm saying 

300
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,600
you should love them but you 
should not listen to them and 

301
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,800
receive instruction from them. 
Again, that's basic right? 

302
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,300
This isn't like don't take 
Financial advice from a broke 

303
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:16,900
person, you know. 
I mean this isn't hard stuff. 

304
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,200
So, Adam God takes the rib out 
of Adam. 

305
00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:25,100
So woman came out of man, but 
she is still distinct from man 

306
00:16:25,100 --> 00:16:29,500
and now, men come from women. 
So the first in the first place,

307
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,700
woman comes out of man. 
This is all in 1st Corinthians 

308
00:16:32,700 --> 00:16:36,900
11 as well. 
The first woman comes out of man

309
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,500
and now man come out of women 
but there are still distinct 

310
00:16:40,500 --> 00:16:44,800
from women so God chooses a rib.
Would it ribs do with these? 

311
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,100
What is the rib cage? 
Doing? 

312
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:48,700
The ribs are protecting our 
heart. 

313
00:16:48,900 --> 00:16:50,600
The ribs are protecting our 
other. 

314
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,600
Most vital life-giving organs. 
This is to show something about 

315
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,200
Eve. 
This is to show what part of 

316
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,600
these purpose is going to be. 
When I going to go fully into it

317
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,400
today but it's to give you the 
distinctions is to show you the 

318
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,599
differences. 
She has access in that she 

319
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:09,400
didn't have before that. 
No one had before. 

320
00:17:09,599 --> 00:17:10,900
Why? 
Because she's close to Adams 

321
00:17:10,900 --> 00:17:12,800
heart. 
This is what a wife is to be to 

322
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,700
her husband. 
This is how a husband is 

323
00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:17,800
supposed to cherish his wife. 
So already right here in these 

324
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,099
first few verses is there that 
much there? 

325
00:17:20,099 --> 00:17:21,400
Oh, absolutely. 
How do you know? 

326
00:17:21,599 --> 00:17:24,000
Well, because in the New 
Testament, these very teachings 

327
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:29,000
are laid out and made plain For 
Better or Worse. 

328
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,700
Eve has access and her husband 
wives For Better or Worse. 

329
00:17:33,300 --> 00:17:36,200
You have, you have this closed 
access to your husband's heart, 

330
00:17:36,300 --> 00:17:39,800
you can impact him, you do 
affect him, he is your head 

331
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:43,600
whether or not you believe that 
or like that he is that husband,

332
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:48,400
she is close to your heart and 
she can't be separated from your

333
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,100
heart for better or worse, 
whether or not you honor her 

334
00:17:51,100 --> 00:17:53,600
appropriately. 
This is the way the Lord has 

335
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,500
made to to become one so we are 
connected. 

336
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,000
To one another, but we are still
distinct from one another. 

337
00:18:02,700 --> 00:18:06,000
Adam is the head of Eve. 
A husband is the authority over 

338
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,200
his wife, and he is to love her 
and care for her, like his own 

339
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:14,400
bones parents with their baby, 
that came from their bodies. 

340
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,900
The way that they love that 
baby. 

341
00:18:15,900 --> 00:18:18,600
This is a husband's love and 
care for his wife is that same 

342
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,200
picture, the way parents look at
their newborn baby. 

343
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,200
Go look what we've made. 
This is amazing. 

344
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,600
Look what we've done, the the 
love, the devotion, the 

345
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,800
instantaneous bond that happens.
This is what the Lord, the 

346
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,600
picture he has. 
For a husband to say, this is 

347
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,100
how I want you to care. 
Or cherish and love your wife. 

348
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,100
Therefore a man shall leave his 
father and mother and hold fast 

349
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:44,200
or stay with or connect to and 
keep close to his wife. 

350
00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:47,900
It's the idea of the man pulling
his wife in clothes covering 

351
00:18:47,900 --> 00:18:51,600
protecting blessing healing 
cherishing. 

352
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,800
Why? 
Because she's a part of me. 

353
00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:56,500
Just like the parents were that 
baby? 

354
00:18:56,900 --> 00:18:59,600
What will the parents do? 
What will they not do to protect

355
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,500
their baby parents? 
What would you not do for your 

356
00:19:02,500 --> 00:19:04,800
kids? 
There's nothing that you 

357
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,700
wouldn't do. 
Well, this is the same thing 

358
00:19:06,700 --> 00:19:09,600
that's required of husbands. 
Well, I'll do anything for my 

359
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,300
kids but not for my wife. 
The Lord, the Lord doesn't make 

360
00:19:13,300 --> 00:19:16,200
room for that. 
The this is what headship looks 

361
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,200
like. 
This is what it means to be. 

362
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,500
And this is why the scripture 
makes it plain in First 

363
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:23,300
Corinthians 11. 
Christ is the head of man. 

364
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,500
Man, is the head. 
A woman. 

365
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,800
So this headship actually 
implies responsibility and of 

366
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,700
course, who's the head of 
children with parents, are 

367
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:36,300
husband, and wife. 
Father, and mother are the heads

368
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,700
of the children. 
They shall become one. 

369
00:19:39,700 --> 00:19:43,300
Flesh Genesis keeps telling us 
here, one flesh, but still 

370
00:19:43,300 --> 00:19:48,400
distinct May own female. 
So the Lord does create this 

371
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,200
physical the spiritual, in this 
emotional Unity, they become one

372
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,000
flesh. 
This is through. 

373
00:19:54,100 --> 00:19:56,600
What happens in the marriage 
bed, this is through the 

374
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,900
intimacy that the Lord intended,
that spiritual that physical, 

375
00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:02,300
and that emotional Act of a 
husband and wife, where they 

376
00:20:02,300 --> 00:20:07,100
come together when a man goes 
into the woman, all this part of

377
00:20:07,100 --> 00:20:11,100
the Lord's design, all this to 
keep showing, but they're still 

378
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:16,600
not to, there's still one and 
they're still to our culture and

379
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,100
In keeps distorting this. 
And this is the message that 

380
00:20:20,100 --> 00:20:23,600
we're hearing particularly 
again, in the month of June, 

381
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,900
where the world is celebrating 
their sin, where their glorying 

382
00:20:26,900 --> 00:20:30,000
in things that they should be 
ashamed of where they're raising

383
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,900
the middle finger up to God and 
Rebellion. 

384
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,000
They use phrases, they steal our
own language. 

385
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,400
They say things like Love Is 
Love. 

386
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,700
And they say things that they're
arguing and pretending to have 

387
00:20:43,700 --> 00:20:47,100
some clarity and pretending to 
have some revelation. 

388
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,400
But it's it's nonsense. 
It's a lie. 

389
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,500
Hebrews 13:4 specifically 
talking about marriage, let the 

390
00:20:54,500 --> 00:20:58,700
marriage be held in honor among 
all What is marriage. 

391
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:01,500
Well, marriage is what the Bible
says, marriage is it was what 

392
00:21:01,500 --> 00:21:04,900
the Lord first created. 
It was a man and a woman one, 

393
00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:09,000
man, and one woman that's what 
marriage is Well I think 

394
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,900
marriage is this where the 
Supreme Court voted on 

395
00:21:10,900 --> 00:21:12,900
marriages? 
That there is a court that is 

396
00:21:12,900 --> 00:21:14,800
more Supreme than the Supreme 
Court. 

397
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,700
So these nine human beings may 
have voted one thing and it 

398
00:21:19,700 --> 00:21:23,700
didn't change the law of God. 
He didn't suddenly cater to our 

399
00:21:23,700 --> 00:21:28,800
whims and our beliefs and our 
flexibility Let marriage be held

400
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,900
in honor among all and let the 
marriage bed, be undefiled, why 

401
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,000
for God will judge the sexually 
immoral and adulterous. 

402
00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:39,200
So what does that tell us? 
It tells us that there is such a

403
00:21:39,208 --> 00:21:43,600
thing as being sexually immoral.
There is the world says, there 

404
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,500
is no such thing as sexual 
immorality. 

405
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,500
Well, I know a person who's like
this and they're really nice. 

406
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,600
Hang on, don't get it confused. 
Don't get it twisted and this is

407
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,300
where the appeal to emotion 
happens. 

408
00:21:56,500 --> 00:22:00,100
If you ever Of something called 
a logical fallacy logical, 

409
00:22:00,100 --> 00:22:03,700
fallacy, a logical fallacy would
be one example of a logical 

410
00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:06,300
fallacy would be what's called 
an appeal to emotion. 

411
00:22:06,700 --> 00:22:10,100
So rather than handling the 
content of the conversation, the

412
00:22:10,100 --> 00:22:14,100
content of the argument itself, 
I see it one way, Chris sees it 

413
00:22:14,100 --> 00:22:17,700
another way and I'm saying, hey 
Chris God teaches this and Chris

414
00:22:17,700 --> 00:22:23,600
says well, You just hate someone
so I'm like, hang on a second. 

415
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,000
Chris just isn't it now, Chris 
is now making an appeal to 

416
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,300
emotion. 
Chris is made a mistake in the 

417
00:22:28,300 --> 00:22:30,400
argument, he's using a logical 
fallacy. 

418
00:22:30,700 --> 00:22:34,400
Now, if in my immaturity and my 
lack of wisdom, I may follow him

419
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,900
down this Rabbit Trail and then 
we both get lost forever and we 

420
00:22:37,900 --> 00:22:39,400
never returned back to the 
subject. 

421
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,800
Many are guilty of that, you may
start off with well. 

422
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,200
The Lord says this, and then a 
person instantly in our culture 

423
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,700
makes an appeal to emotion. 
Why are you so blank? 

424
00:22:48,700 --> 00:22:51,900
A phobic, why are you so? 
Transphobic, why are you so 

425
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,500
homophobic? 
Why are you so whatever phobic, 

426
00:22:54,500 --> 00:22:56,500
why are you so racist? 
Why are you so whatever? 

427
00:22:56,700 --> 00:22:59,300
They're instantly trying to 
knock you off your heels. 

428
00:22:59,300 --> 00:23:00,900
They're being as wise as a 
serpent. 

429
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,900
They're not being as harmless as
a dove though. 

430
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,400
Christians often make the 
mistake only of being as 

431
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,900
harmless as a dove. 
But Jesus didn't come. 

432
00:23:07,900 --> 00:23:09,500
And it's only to be as harmless 
as a dove. 

433
00:23:09,700 --> 00:23:12,000
He commanded you to be as wise 
as a serpent. 

434
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,200
So that is to be able to 
recognize what's happening and 

435
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,100
to not be a coward and to not be
bullied by someone who is 

436
00:23:19,100 --> 00:23:23,800
telling you You're a bully. 
This is the hypocrisy of the 

437
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,800
satanic mind. 
This is the hypocrisy or what 

438
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,400
are you calling these people? 
Satanic? 

439
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:29,800
Most definitely. 
Yes. 

440
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,300
Let there be no confusion there.
That doesn't mean that they all 

441
00:23:33,300 --> 00:23:35,200
worship Satan. 
But it means that people who 

442
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,100
teach these things. 
People who teach that male and 

443
00:23:38,100 --> 00:23:40,700
female can switch people who 
teach that male can become 

444
00:23:40,700 --> 00:23:44,100
female people who are rejoicing 
and sins that God calls an 

445
00:23:44,100 --> 00:23:47,600
Abomination, we are to love them
because God loves them. 

446
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,600
And loving people, distinctly 
means telling people the truth 

447
00:23:51,900 --> 00:23:55,800
just like Jesus did and just 
like the word of God does why? 

448
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,200
Well, because God will judge the
immoral and that God will judge 

449
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,700
the sexually. 
Immoral, do we want these people

450
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:05,400
to be judged? 
They're standing in the highway,

451
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,800
the truck is coming. 
We're telling them to get out of

452
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:13,100
the road because that judgment 
truck will destroy them and I 

453
00:24:13,100 --> 00:24:16,800
believe in hell and I know that 
people suffer and burn forever 

454
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,000
and ever. 
Lie under the wrath of God, but 

455
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,100
they don't have to. 
So when they call me a hateful 

456
00:24:22,100 --> 00:24:25,800
bigot, I can't turn away just 
because they're spinning the 

457
00:24:25,808 --> 00:24:28,600
script and flipping things on 
me, I have to actually love them

458
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,900
past it just like I have to love
when I had two year olds and 

459
00:24:31,908 --> 00:24:34,300
they would throw a fit and they 
want to get their car seat. 

460
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,100
I didn't just go, you know what 
he thinks. 

461
00:24:36,100 --> 00:24:37,700
I'm being a mean Daddy right 
now. 

462
00:24:38,100 --> 00:24:41,200
So I don't want to cause any 
trauma here. 

463
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,700
I don't want to cause any 
damage, you know, he's been hurt

464
00:24:44,700 --> 00:24:46,600
so many times. 
So many people in his life, he 

465
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,600
put him in a car seat. 
And here I am. 

466
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,100
Another guy just stuffing this 
child into a car seat. 

467
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,400
I need to be compassionate. 
Let me hear his story. 

468
00:24:55,900 --> 00:24:58,500
Hey two-year-old tell me your 
story. 

469
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:02,900
This is the nonsense that the 
church uses nowadays. 

470
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:07,300
There are famous famous famous 
pastors, who when they are asked

471
00:25:07,300 --> 00:25:10,500
specifically. 
Now, in public pastors, who have

472
00:25:10,500 --> 00:25:12,700
very big platforms, they're 
asked specifically. 

473
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,200
Because this is what the world 
wants to do. 

474
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,000
They want to pin you down on. 
Do you believe the Bible? 

475
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,200
Because then they want to 
instantly label. 

476
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,400
You a hateful bigoted and 
homophobe and all these other 

477
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,600
things. 
So, these pastors get asked 

478
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,000
these questions all the time. 
Famous artist, I watch multiple 

479
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,000
videos this week, they just 
grieve my heart. 

480
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,600
They said so. 
So do you believe homosexuality 

481
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,400
is a sin? 
And instead of just just say, 

482
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,200
with the book says, like, you 
didn't invent this yourself, 

483
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,000
bro. 
You don't have to stand on your 

484
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,400
own two feet, you're standing on
the scripture. 

485
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,300
You didn't invent it and you're 
doing this out of love, but 

486
00:25:45,300 --> 00:25:48,700
because these pastors don't love
people and they love themselves 

487
00:25:48,700 --> 00:25:51,300
and their own platforms or 
because Christians don't love 

488
00:25:51,300 --> 00:25:53,300
people enough and because they 
love themselves and their own 

489
00:25:53,300 --> 00:25:55,400
reputation. 
And because they're worried 

490
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,600
about being canceled, and 
they're worried about their 

491
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,800
losing their job. 
And the worry about all these 

492
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,000
things that we worry about 
instead of faithfulness to God, 

493
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,300
well, I just think we ought to 
stick with the gospel. 

494
00:26:05,500 --> 00:26:08,200
This is the gospel. 
This is the gospel. 

495
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,400
Well, I feel like we ought to 
just tell people Jesus loves 

496
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,100
them, but that's not the whole 
gospel. 

497
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:17,400
The gospel is Christ died for 
your, what for your sins. 

498
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,100
The problem with the world that 
we live in is no one. 

499
00:26:20,100 --> 00:26:24,000
Has any Sims No one has any 
sins. 

500
00:26:24,100 --> 00:26:28,100
You hateful, bigoted Christian, 
how dare you? 

501
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,200
I'm not a sinner. 
God loves me. 

502
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,200
Whoa. 
Whoa, do you see the switch? 

503
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,600
We just made their weight. 
I'm not a sinner. 

504
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,400
God loves me. 
Hang on a second. 

505
00:26:38,500 --> 00:26:41,900
You can be a sinner and still be
loved by God your flippant, your

506
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:47,100
wise as a serpent, very crafty, 
very crafty, very manipulative 

507
00:26:47,300 --> 00:26:53,200
but not harmless. but as long as
you engage with people and 

508
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:58,300
expecting them to be reasonable 
and kind and fair and you don't 

509
00:26:58,300 --> 00:27:01,800
stand on the logic of the word 
of God, you'll be confused. 

510
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:06,300
As long as you don't remember, 
the basics of male and female 

511
00:27:06,500 --> 00:27:11,600
you'll be confused. 
The church has to fight where 

512
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,100
the fight is. 
So another way that the world 

513
00:27:15,100 --> 00:27:17,900
argues against this and other 
way, that even Christians would 

514
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,300
argue against a sermon like this
is, they would say things like 

515
00:27:21,300 --> 00:27:22,900
John Michael. 
I don't think we should be 

516
00:27:22,900 --> 00:27:28,000
political. 
That doesn't make any sense. 

517
00:27:29,100 --> 00:27:31,700
I'm not being political. 
Well, yeah, these are political 

518
00:27:31,700 --> 00:27:34,400
issues. 
What does that mean? 

519
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,100
What does that mean? 
If you would ask someone about, 

520
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:38,900
what do you mean? 
It's political. 

521
00:27:39,100 --> 00:27:44,200
I can't help that these things, 
make their way into law and 

522
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:48,100
courts, like, but I'm not 
allowed to just stay out of it. 

523
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:52,200
Am I allowed to talk about the 
murder of infant's of unborn 

524
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,400
babies? 
Know, that's political. 

525
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,800
Okay. 
Am I allowed to talk about the 

526
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,000
grave sin of Sodomy and how it's
spreading through our country 

527
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,000
and being promoted and being 
pushed and how children or 

528
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:09,800
having surgeries to mutilate 
their bodies and being lied to. 

529
00:28:10,300 --> 00:28:12,700
And being told that they can be 
something that they can't be and

530
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:14,700
that they will never be. 
Yeah. 

531
00:28:14,700 --> 00:28:16,700
You can't talk about that 
because that's political. 

532
00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:19,100
Okay. 
Am I allowed to talk about 

533
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:21,300
murder? 
Well, yes. 

534
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,500
As long as the person has been 
born, okay, but if that becomes 

535
00:28:24,500 --> 00:28:28,600
political will live in, not be 
allowed to talk about it, do 

536
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,800
you? 
Can talk about its nonsense. 

537
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,300
You can't allow a broken world 
to make the rules. 

538
00:28:34,500 --> 00:28:36,800
Stop pretending that they're 
acting reasonable, because 

539
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:42,500
they're not Have have some 
courage to speak the truth in 

540
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:43,900
love. 
Why are we doing these things? 

541
00:28:43,900 --> 00:28:48,300
Because we love people because 
God loves people and because 

542
00:28:48,300 --> 00:28:52,300
love, always tells the truth 
because Jesus died for people's 

543
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,600
sins, these truths are 
self-evident. 

544
00:28:55,700 --> 00:28:57,400
Well then why aren't people 
admitting it? 

545
00:28:57,700 --> 00:29:01,700
Let's see what the Bible says. 
Go to Romans chapter 1. 

546
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,800
Matthew Mark, Luke John acts 
Romans. 

547
00:29:28,100 --> 00:29:32,400
God made them male and female. 
Jesus reiterated this by the 

548
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,800
way. 
So if anybody ever tells you you

549
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,700
know again people in their 
ignorance. 

550
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,800
Some people they will say Jesus 
was all about love and love is 

551
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,700
Love Again. 
A nonsensical statement that you

552
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:48,800
know, accomplishes what they 
wanted to accomplish because 

553
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,700
they're able to say Love Is Love
what they mean is. 

554
00:29:51,700 --> 00:29:54,100
If I love someone I love someone
if I love something, I love 

555
00:29:54,100 --> 00:29:55,100
something. 
Well, that's true. 

556
00:29:55,100 --> 00:29:58,200
I can't argue with you there. 
That was never my Arguments 

557
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,600
begin with argument is hey, sin 
is bad. 

558
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:06,900
I'm not saying love isn't love. 
I'm saying sin is bad and our 

559
00:30:06,900 --> 00:30:09,700
goal as the church to clarify. 
Again is not to just to get 

560
00:30:09,700 --> 00:30:12,300
people to stop sinning, our 
goal, very much, is to see 

561
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:16,800
people be born again. 
So for the homosexuals that I 

562
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,100
know or the, or the people who 
are living as the opposite 

563
00:30:20,100 --> 00:30:24,200
gender from what, the Lord 
created them to be my goal for 

564
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,800
them is to not just get them to 
switch back. 

565
00:30:27,300 --> 00:30:30,900
So You know, for the guy that I 
know who says he's now a woman, 

566
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:36,100
my desire and love for him is 
not to just get him to come back

567
00:30:36,100 --> 00:30:38,900
and say I'm a man. 
Again, we still going to hell, 

568
00:30:39,300 --> 00:30:40,600
why? 
Because he's a sinner, and he 

569
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,500
doesn't have the blood of Jesus.
So that's that is not the thing.

570
00:30:44,500 --> 00:30:47,500
We're after, you know, for the 
people that I know who curse all

571
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:49,500
the time, and not just like, 
hey, I just want Frank to stop 

572
00:30:49,500 --> 00:30:52,300
cussing and if I could just get 
him to stop cussing. 

573
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,500
Okay, well, Frank will go to 
hell without cursing now. 

574
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,600
So obviously we still want 
people to Is formed. 

575
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,300
But if people's hearts are so 
hardened that they won't 

576
00:31:01,300 --> 00:31:05,200
acknowledge and recognize sin, 
then I'm not doing them any 

577
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,000
good, but the world will use 
this line. 

578
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,200
They'll say Jesus didn't say 
anything about blank. 

579
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,700
They'll Jesus didn't say 
anything about whatever I shall 

580
00:31:12,700 --> 00:31:14,100
go there really quick, just to 
show you. 

581
00:31:15,700 --> 00:31:18,600
You stay where you're at. 
In Romans 1, Matthew 19. 

582
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,500
They're asking Jesus about 
divorce. 

583
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,300
Jesus quotes Genesis, he 
answered. 

584
00:31:24,300 --> 00:31:27,100
Have you not read that? 
He who created them from the 

585
00:31:27,100 --> 00:31:30,600
beginning, made them male and 
female, okay, so now you have 

586
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,300
Jesus even though we know we 
don't have to have Jesus talked 

587
00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:35,700
about every single thing when 
Jesus never said, anything about

588
00:31:35,700 --> 00:31:38,600
cannibalism so Checkmate, I'll 
do whatever I want. 

589
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:43,000
Well, you know, that's foolish 
nonsense but Jesus did talk 

590
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,200
about marriage. 
He made them male and female and

591
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,600
said, therefore a man shall 
leave his father and mother and 

592
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,500
hold fast to his wife and the 
two shall become one flesh. 

593
00:31:51,500 --> 00:31:53,400
So they are no longer two, but 
one flesh. 

594
00:31:53,500 --> 00:31:54,600
Therefore what God has joined 
together. 

595
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,600
Let no man separate. 
Okay. 

596
00:31:56,700 --> 00:31:59,700
Jesus just affirmed marriage of 
man woman. 

597
00:31:59,700 --> 00:32:03,500
So again, that that Jesus didn't
say anything about 

598
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:04,800
homosexuality. 
Yes, he did. 

599
00:32:04,900 --> 00:32:06,900
He just did. 
He didn't say a lot of things 

600
00:32:06,900 --> 00:32:09,700
about a lot of things because 
these truths are self-evident 

601
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,100
Romans chapter 1. 
I'll prove it to you. 

602
00:32:13,300 --> 00:32:19,800
Romans 1:18. for the wrath of 
God is revealed from Heaven 

603
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:25,200
against all ungodliness and 
unrighteousness of men who by 

604
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:34,800
their unrighteousness suppress 
the truth, This is the primary 

605
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,600
tactic that I am observing right
now of Satan's work. 

606
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:43,600
He is suppressing the truth 
hating the truth, I watch the 

607
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,400
documentary the other night it's
called what is a woman? 

608
00:32:46,700 --> 00:32:51,600
It came out earlier this month 
and it's a guy going around and 

609
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:56,600
he's just asking he's asking 
people what is a woman and no 

610
00:32:56,600 --> 00:33:00,100
one will Define it even when 
he's asking women, who clearly 

611
00:33:00,100 --> 00:33:02,300
know that there are women, so 
he's not just asking trans 

612
00:33:02,300 --> 00:33:02,900
people. 
He goes up. 

613
00:33:03,100 --> 00:33:05,500
Like a mother and an aunt and 
the two daughters. 

614
00:33:05,500 --> 00:33:08,000
And these are just like normal 
looking women. 

615
00:33:08,300 --> 00:33:10,500
And he, and they're at the 
women's March and he goes, hey, 

616
00:33:10,500 --> 00:33:12,100
I'm just here at the women's 
March yet. 

617
00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:15,700
What is a woman? 
And they all just kind of smile.

618
00:33:15,700 --> 00:33:17,200
Look at each other. 
What are they doing in that 

619
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,500
moment? 
They are suppressing the truth. 

620
00:33:19,500 --> 00:33:21,000
Why? 
Because they know, they know 

621
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,700
what the answer is, they know, 
it's not complicated. 

622
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,500
The littlest children in this 
room, know what a woman is, but 

623
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:30,300
they're suppressing the truth. 
Why? 

624
00:33:30,500 --> 00:33:34,400
Because they hate God, this 
isn't this isn't hard. 

625
00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:37,000
They loved the darkness rather 
than the light. 

626
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:38,700
What are we supposed to do about
that? 

627
00:33:38,700 --> 00:33:42,300
Well, we continue to bring in 
the light, well, with what hope 

628
00:33:42,300 --> 00:33:44,200
with the hope that the word of 
God will come. 

629
00:33:44,300 --> 00:33:47,300
Them to the heart and that they 
will use that moment of Faith to

630
00:33:47,300 --> 00:33:49,500
repent. 
They will get to cast their own 

631
00:33:49,500 --> 00:33:52,400
vote on what they do with it, 
but we're responsible to be 

632
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:53,800
faithful. 
What is a woman? 

633
00:33:53,900 --> 00:33:56,300
And no one would answer. 
And then of course he goes to 

634
00:33:56,300 --> 00:33:57,900
the more ridiculous people as 
well. 

635
00:33:58,300 --> 00:34:02,100
The professor of gender studies,
gender studies, you would think 

636
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:04,700
the gender studies Professor has
a definition for the woman, 

637
00:34:04,700 --> 00:34:06,800
right? 
The gender studies Professor was

638
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,800
the absolute worst in the whole 
documentary. 

639
00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:13,000
He absolutely refused to answer 
and often times throughout the 

640
00:34:13,007 --> 00:34:15,400
documentary, people would give 
the answer when he would say, 

641
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,500
what is a woman? 
They would say a woman. 

642
00:34:17,500 --> 00:34:21,100
Is anyone who identifies as a 
woman, you can't use a 

643
00:34:21,100 --> 00:34:23,100
definition. 
You can't use the word to define

644
00:34:23,100 --> 00:34:25,000
the word. 
This is a rule for defining 

645
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,199
things, everybody. 
What's a TV? 

646
00:34:27,199 --> 00:34:30,300
Well, a TV is a TV, folks. 
Jamychal. 

647
00:34:30,300 --> 00:34:32,100
You didn't aunt. 
That's circular reasoning. 

648
00:34:32,100 --> 00:34:35,500
You didn't answer. 
What a TV is, I have to Define 

649
00:34:35,500 --> 00:34:41,800
TV without using the word TV. 
A TV is this flat surface box 

650
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:47,900
thing, that brings images. 
And shows and entertainment and 

651
00:34:47,900 --> 00:34:51,699
color and light and sound to 
you, okay, I've defined TV, 

652
00:34:51,699 --> 00:34:54,300
maybe a poor definition probably
could have done better there but

653
00:34:54,300 --> 00:34:57,700
you get the rough idea but all 
throughout the documentary 

654
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,200
people suppress the truth. 
You see them pause there they're

655
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,600
ready to answer but they're like
oh wait it's not 20 years ago. 

656
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:10,800
So now I have to pretend that a 
woman is and then they, as they 

657
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,700
work through the lies in their 
mind and then mental gymnastics,

658
00:35:13,700 --> 00:35:17,100
you see them start to well, you 
know, woman can be anything. 

659
00:35:17,100 --> 00:35:19,500
He said this is a bearded man. 
He's a, can I be a woman that 

660
00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:23,500
like if you think you are, and 
they all kind of chuckle at the 

661
00:35:23,500 --> 00:35:26,500
absurdity coming out of their 
own mouths and they're 

662
00:35:26,500 --> 00:35:33,600
realizing, we really are idiots.
We really are that far gone. 

663
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,700
It Grieves me a grieve me. 
This whole, the whole thing 

664
00:35:37,700 --> 00:35:39,400
grieve. 
Me, me and Natalie watched it. 

665
00:35:39,900 --> 00:35:44,300
It just grieve me now, it 
encourages me to remember that. 

666
00:35:44,300 --> 00:35:48,200
These are extreme minorities, 
but it Grieves me at the 

667
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,300
traction that is being gained 
and it reminds me that the 

668
00:35:52,300 --> 00:35:56,100
church has been silent. 
And it's been the church is 

669
00:35:56,100 --> 00:35:59,800
niceness, and it's been the 
church's harmless as a dove - 

670
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,300
And not the wise as a serpent - 
that has allowed the world to 

671
00:36:04,300 --> 00:36:05,600
get to where the world has 
gotten. 

672
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,300
We are the salt of the earth we 
have not preserved the Earth 

673
00:36:09,300 --> 00:36:12,000
from his rot. 
We are the light of the world we

674
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:17,000
have not Shine the Light on the 
darkness and we've been told 

675
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,500
that there's only two options 
that you have to be either wise 

676
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:24,500
as a serpent or or as harmless 
as a dove. 

677
00:36:24,700 --> 00:36:30,200
And Jesus commanded both and 
wise as a serpent and harmless 

678
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:34,300
as a dove. 
Now, the lies come whenever, the

679
00:36:34,300 --> 00:36:38,500
people start to tell us, you're 
harming me now, you being a 

680
00:36:38,500 --> 00:36:41,600
tender conscience, Christian, 
and that moment will have to be 

681
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,300
careful, not to believe. 
Another lie, you're harming me 

682
00:36:45,300 --> 00:36:50,000
with what you're saying. 
No, you're suppressing the 

683
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,500
truth. 
I love you and God loves you, 

684
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:53,900
but you're suppressing the 
truth. 

685
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,200
And this is the tactic that 
Satan is used against the church

686
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,400
to silent the church because the
church is compassionate. 

687
00:37:01,700 --> 00:37:05,700
We know that we love these 
people o people you're a 

688
00:37:05,700 --> 00:37:08,900
homophobe and as a tender 
conscience Christian I go my 

689
00:37:08,900 --> 00:37:13,600
goodness am I I think hateful 
and as they fall to pieces, or 

690
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,000
they cry or they say, you won't 
use my pronoun. 

691
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,800
I'm like, maybe I should I do 
that. 

692
00:37:19,100 --> 00:37:21,000
I can't believe you won't come 
to our wedding. 

693
00:37:21,300 --> 00:37:24,800
Should I go to their wedding? 
And we start to wrestle with 

694
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:29,200
these things. 
Go back to the book fear God. 

695
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,300
And not, man, these people are 
suppressing the truth. 

696
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,100
How do you know? 
Because he said, so, what if 

697
00:37:36,100 --> 00:37:38,600
they rage screaming in your face
that they're not suppressing the

698
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,600
truth? 
Let Mandy found a liar and like,

699
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:46,300
God be found true for the wrath 
of God is revealed from Heaven 

700
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:50,000
against all ungodliness and 
unrighteousness of men who by 

701
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:54,300
their unrighteousness suppress 
the truth for what can be known 

702
00:37:54,300 --> 00:37:59,700
about God is plain to them. 
Meditate on that word. 

703
00:37:59,700 --> 00:38:03,300
Y'all meditate on that verse 
Christian what can be known 

704
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:10,600
about God is plain to all of us.
The reason we can't speak with 

705
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,000
conviction is because we 
actually don't believe the 

706
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:16,000
Bible. 
And I don't believe God. 

707
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:17,800
If I've prayed, I've tried, I've
done this. 

708
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,200
I've done that. 
I've done this under that. 

709
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,100
Do you believe them? 
Do you believe God's word? 

710
00:38:21,100 --> 00:38:22,900
What can be known about God is 
plain to them? 

711
00:38:24,700 --> 00:38:27,000
It's plain to them. 
Well I don't feel like it's 

712
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,500
playing to me. 
Hey man, will come on over. 

713
00:38:29,500 --> 00:38:32,500
Like let's spend some time open 
in the Bible together and I will

714
00:38:32,500 --> 00:38:34,900
spend time in my living room. 
I like, I want to help you. 

715
00:38:34,900 --> 00:38:36,500
I want to bless you. 
I just want to open the word of 

716
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:39,100
God, and I believe that the Lord
is going to bring light to you. 

717
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,000
God loves you. 
He really does care about you, I

718
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,200
care about you. 
But let's turn to the scriptures

719
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,100
together because this is where 
light comes from. 

720
00:38:46,100 --> 00:38:48,300
I don't believe that I've saw 
the History Channel. 

721
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:51,400
One time about the Bots, 
suppressing, the truth 

722
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,600
suppressing, the truth 
suppressing, the truth, why? 

723
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,600
Because their deeds are Arc and 
they don't want the light to 

724
00:38:55,608 --> 00:38:58,000
shine on them. 
Who said that Jesus did. 

725
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:00,600
That's what Jesus said. 
Right after the most famous 

726
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,800
verse in the whole Bible. 
Is that's what he said. 

727
00:39:05,300 --> 00:39:06,400
People won't come into the 
light. 

728
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:07,300
Why not? 
Jesus? 

729
00:39:07,300 --> 00:39:09,800
Because their deeds are dark. 
Their deeds are evil and they 

730
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:13,800
don't want them to be exposed. 
Now this is not our shaking 

731
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,000
fists to them but this is our 
conviction. 

732
00:39:16,300 --> 00:39:20,300
This does stiff in our spine in 
the face of the entire mob. 

733
00:39:20,300 --> 00:39:23,200
We're able to just say I love 
you and you are suppressing the 

734
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,400
truth. 
And then, of course, as they 

735
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,100
call us hateful, they spit on us
and do all those other things, 

736
00:39:30,100 --> 00:39:31,700
and we welcome it. 
Why? 

737
00:39:31,700 --> 00:39:33,100
Because in that moment, you can 
know. 

738
00:39:33,100 --> 00:39:36,500
You are being persecuted for 
Christ's sake and they'll claim 

739
00:39:36,500 --> 00:39:38,500
that you're not. 
No, you're not being persecuted.

740
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,000
If you are like Jesus, you would
be loving because Love Is Love 

741
00:39:42,100 --> 00:39:44,900
In Jesus. 
So these people who hate Christ 

742
00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:49,000
will pretend to know Christ and 
then teach you about Christ and 

743
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,400
what cries demands of you a 
Christ follower, this is the 

744
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,400
deception that the church has 
fallen into and the You become 

745
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,400
confused and weak and anemic and
the church goes. 

746
00:39:58,900 --> 00:40:00,300
I kind of was a. 
That's a good point. 

747
00:40:00,300 --> 00:40:02,900
No, it wasn't that stupid and 
it's not logical. 

748
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:04,500
You need to stop. 
Believing it. 

749
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,900
What can be known about God is 
plain to them? 

750
00:40:08,900 --> 00:40:11,000
Why? 
Because God has shown it to 

751
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:18,700
them. 
For his invisible attributes, 

752
00:40:19,300 --> 00:40:22,100
namely his eternal power, and 
his divine nature. 

753
00:40:22,500 --> 00:40:24,900
Wow. 
So he showed him the biggies, 

754
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,600
his eternal power and his divine
nature have been clearly 

755
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:32,000
perceived ever since the 
creation of the world in the 

756
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,800
things that have been made. 
What's the evidence for God his 

757
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,100
creation? 
I don't believe that. 

758
00:40:36,100 --> 00:40:39,600
I think we came from nothing. 
You're suppressing the truth. 

759
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,600
I still love you and I want you 
to follow King Jesus but you're 

760
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,300
suppressing the truth and I'm 
going to continue to stand on my

761
00:40:47,300 --> 00:40:48,900
point. 
No matter what you say, I'm 

762
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:52,100
gonna go to your employer, you 
go to him, I may get fired and 

763
00:40:52,100 --> 00:40:53,700
you'll see my king keep 
providing for me. 

764
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,400
I will burn your house down, 
burn it down and you'll see my 

765
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,800
king is still going to provide 
for me. 

766
00:40:58,500 --> 00:41:01,100
This is what it looks like to be
persecuted Church. 

767
00:41:01,100 --> 00:41:03,900
We're not going to be persecute.
When they throw us in prison, at

768
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:09,000
some point, in some day, if it 
gets to that point, And it's not

769
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,100
going to be, they're not going 
to charge us in court with 

770
00:41:12,100 --> 00:41:14,400
loving Jesus. 
You need to understand that. 

771
00:41:14,500 --> 00:41:17,600
That won't be the charge. 
If I'm in a prison camp. 

772
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,300
I won't be in the prison camp on
charges of loving and Faithfully

773
00:41:21,300 --> 00:41:24,400
following King Jesus. 
It will be on the charges of 

774
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:28,300
hate and bigotry and hate 
speech, that will be the charge.

775
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,000
So I wish it was planar and 
simpler. 

776
00:41:31,100 --> 00:41:32,500
Okay. 
I wish it was. 

777
00:41:32,500 --> 00:41:34,800
I wish it was just like we hate 
King Jesus. 

778
00:41:34,900 --> 00:41:38,200
They're not going to say that 
because somewhere in the Heart 

779
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:42,800
of hearts they do fear God, a 
smidgen enough to not be so bold

780
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:45,300
actually if you stay in the 
trenches of conversation long 

781
00:41:45,300 --> 00:41:47,100
enough you they will actually 
come out and say it. 

782
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,300
If you hold your ground, you'll 
say, no. 

783
00:41:49,300 --> 00:41:52,000
The Bible is the word of God. 
I don't care about your Bible. 

784
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,900
Well, it's probably because you 
don't care about God. 

785
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,200
I don't believe in God. 
If you stand your ground long 

786
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,900
enough, the truth comes out. 
I've seen it many times in 

787
00:41:59,900 --> 00:42:02,600
conversations. 
Well, I hate your and God, you 

788
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,800
like you've admitted it. 
We've reached the conclusion of 

789
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,600
the truth. 
You didn't suppress the truth 

790
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,900
right there, that's right. 
And then they may Double Down On

791
00:42:10,900 --> 00:42:13,500
It. 
And finally, the truth has been 

792
00:42:13,500 --> 00:42:14,100
exposed. 
Why? 

793
00:42:14,100 --> 00:42:15,600
The word of God. 
Come to the heart. 

794
00:42:16,100 --> 00:42:18,100
Do we just want an emotional 
angry reaction? 

795
00:42:18,100 --> 00:42:20,500
No, we won't repentance. 
And that's where we keep pouring

796
00:42:20,500 --> 00:42:22,300
in the gospel. 
Hey Christ. 

797
00:42:22,300 --> 00:42:24,700
Died for your sins. 
If you will humble yourself 

798
00:42:24,700 --> 00:42:28,100
before King Jesus, you can be a 
child in his house. 

799
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,900
God loves you and he calls you 
in so we don't respond to anger 

800
00:42:31,900 --> 00:42:34,500
with anger. 
So this these are the moments 

801
00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:37,100
when this is when when you get 
slapped on One Cheek when you 

802
00:42:37,100 --> 00:42:40,200
turn the other, when you show 
them, my love is consistent. 

803
00:42:40,500 --> 00:42:42,700
My love is faithful. 
Why? 

804
00:42:42,700 --> 00:42:45,100
Because it's love that really 
comes from God. 

805
00:42:45,500 --> 00:42:51,700
So they are without excuse for, 
although they knew God, they did

806
00:42:51,700 --> 00:42:56,400
not honor him as God or give 
thanks to him, but they became 

807
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,200
futile in their thinking and 
their foolish Hearts were, 

808
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,800
darkened claiming to be wise, 
they became fools. 

809
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,000
That's all I saw in that 
documentary. 

810
00:43:06,900 --> 00:43:09,900
Or enlightened we see more, we 
know more, but we don't know 

811
00:43:09,900 --> 00:43:12,200
what a woman is, a woman is 
whatever. 

812
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:16,200
Woman is a woman, is whoever 
identifies as a woman claiming 

813
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,000
to be wise. 
We're so enlightened. 

814
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,700
Now they became fools and 
exchanged the glory of the 

815
00:43:21,700 --> 00:43:23,800
immortal. 
God for images, resembling 

816
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:28,300
mortal man and birds and animals
and creeping things, therefore, 

817
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,400
what did God do? 
God gave them up in their lusts 

818
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,000
of their hearts to impurity to 
the dishonoring of their bodies 

819
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,800
among themselves? 
Because they exchanged, they 

820
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:43,200
exchanged it, they exchanged the
truth of God about God for a lie

821
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,000
and they worshipped and served 
the creature rather than the 

822
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,200
Creator who is forever blessed. 
All men for this raisin. 

823
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,300
What did God do? 
God gave them up to dishonorable

824
00:43:53,300 --> 00:43:57,900
passions for their women, 
exchanged natural relations for 

825
00:43:57,900 --> 00:44:02,000
those that are contrary to 
Nature and Men likewise gave up 

826
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,400
natural relations with women who
were consumed with passion for 

827
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,000
one another men. 
Committing Shameless acts with 

828
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,800
men and receiving in themselves.
The due penalty for their error.

829
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,700
And since they did not see fit 
to acknowledge, God, God gave 

830
00:44:16,700 --> 00:44:18,300
them up. 
What did God do? 

831
00:44:18,300 --> 00:44:22,000
God gave them up. 
Again to a debased mind to do 

832
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,600
what ought not to be done. 
They were filled with all manner

833
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,000
of unrighteousness, with evil 
with covetousness and Malice. 

834
00:44:29,500 --> 00:44:33,800
They are full of Envy murder 
Strife, deceit, maliciousness 

835
00:44:34,300 --> 00:44:39,600
they are gossips slanderers. 
Haters of God insolent haughty 

836
00:44:40,100 --> 00:44:42,300
boastful and this one really 
struck me. 

837
00:44:43,300 --> 00:44:46,400
Inventors of evil. 
We got new ways. 

838
00:44:46,700 --> 00:44:49,700
We got new things. 
Homosexuality is a really old 

839
00:44:49,700 --> 00:44:53,600
sin according to the word of 
God, but now now we have 

840
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:57,300
transgenderism as it's called 
and and we have surgeries 

841
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,200
there's a father and even in 
this documentary, he was 

842
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:04,800
arrested, he's out on bail as 
the time of the filming but he's

843
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,000
arrested in Canada. 
This is real. 

844
00:45:08,500 --> 00:45:12,400
In the world today he was 
arrested because he would not 

845
00:45:12,500 --> 00:45:16,000
use his 13 year old daughter's, 
preferred pronouns. 

846
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,500
She her mother was saying that 
she's a boy now and the father 

847
00:45:20,500 --> 00:45:22,600
refused to participate and they 
took her to the hospital in the 

848
00:45:22,608 --> 00:45:24,100
dads. 
Like let's get this over with. 

849
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,100
Let's get the truth and the 
hospital totally affirmed. 

850
00:45:27,100 --> 00:45:30,500
This poor young girls, delusions
and sided with the mother. 

851
00:45:30,500 --> 00:45:33,200
And they began hormone therapy 
to begin to. 

852
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:34,700
What are they doing? 
They're inventing new forms of 

853
00:45:34,700 --> 00:45:36,600
evil. 
They're inventing them. 

854
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,900
And his father goes to jail for 
it disobedient to parents 

855
00:45:43,100 --> 00:45:45,900
foolish, faithless, heartless 
and ruthless though. 

856
00:45:45,900 --> 00:45:49,300
They know, God's righteous 
decree that those who practice, 

857
00:45:49,300 --> 00:45:53,700
such things deserve to die. 
They not only do them, but they 

858
00:45:53,700 --> 00:45:55,800
give approval to those who 
practice them. 

859
00:45:56,100 --> 00:45:58,400
And now, we would say, of 
course, they go farther and 

860
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,500
promote it at the early stage 
possible. 

861
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,000
Not just give approval if you 
choose it, but you should choose

862
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,200
it and you should affirm it and 
approve it church. 

863
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,800
This is not a shaking our To the
world sermon. 

864
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,000
This is a look in the mirror. 
Like we prayed before the 

865
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:12,800
service. 
How have we gotten to this 

866
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,800
place? 
It's not just the world. 

867
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,500
It's the church. 
If we are the salt of the earth 

868
00:46:17,900 --> 00:46:21,800
and the Earth is rotting. 
The salt has lost its saltiness.

869
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,400
This is all that we can control 
is our own saltiness. 

870
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,300
We must preserve. 
We must bring the flavors of the

871
00:46:28,300 --> 00:46:30,900
Kingdom. 
We must bring hope and life, and

872
00:46:30,900 --> 00:46:34,000
light to people. 
All the commercials, all the ads

873
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,500
that you'll be bombarded with 
all month long, they will not 

874
00:46:36,500 --> 00:46:39,600
show you the trauma, the 
darkness, the oppression, the 

875
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,900
medical malfunctions, the 
absolute devastation that 

876
00:46:42,900 --> 00:46:46,500
homosexuality and transgenderism
bring to the human body and to 

877
00:46:46,500 --> 00:46:49,400
the human soul. 
You only be shown little 

878
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,900
rainbows. 
That's all you'll see. 

879
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:56,300
You have to believe the word of 
God in absence of seeing the 

880
00:46:56,300 --> 00:46:59,200
truth and these people's lives 
and the in the Brokenness that 

881
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:00,900
they're experiencing, see them 
the way. 

882
00:47:00,900 --> 00:47:05,600
God does May own female and then
love them with the gospel so 

883
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,700
that they will be transformed. 
Not man, y'all to come back and 

884
00:47:08,700 --> 00:47:12,400
be the other gender, okay, that 
would be good. 

885
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,300
I mean, don't get me wrong. 
You want your alcoholic friend? 

886
00:47:14,300 --> 00:47:17,500
Decide be an alcoholic, right? 
Because it's destroying his life

887
00:47:17,500 --> 00:47:20,300
but that still doesn't save him.
You want your drug addict friend

888
00:47:20,300 --> 00:47:22,400
to stop doing drugs right? 
Yeah. 

889
00:47:22,500 --> 00:47:26,700
But that still doesn't Even so 
yes we are all about removing 

890
00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:29,600
Sin from someone's life to 
preserve their life. 

891
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:33,800
But always ultimately so that 
they would know King Jesus and 

892
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,600
live in the Kingdom where there 
is true love joy, peace, 

893
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,700
patience, kindness goodness 
faithfulness, gentleness and 

894
00:47:40,700 --> 00:47:44,400
self-control. 
So if you don't have faith in 

895
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,100
God's word, you'll continue to 
be pressured by culture and to 

896
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:51,600
silence all in the Name of Love.
But if you don't tell somebody 

897
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,300
the truth, you actually hate 
them. 

898
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,600
And yes it's demonic that they 
tell you you're hateful when you

899
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,200
tell the truth. 
But that's only because demons 

900
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,300
do hate the truth, but we're not
going to work by Satan's 

901
00:48:03,300 --> 00:48:05,100
definitions, we're working by 
gods. 

902
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,600
So we're preaching for God's 
truth. 

903
00:48:07,700 --> 00:48:09,900
Yes. 
And we're preaching against 

904
00:48:09,900 --> 00:48:11,100
Satan's lies. 
Why? 

905
00:48:11,100 --> 00:48:14,400
Because their lies, their 
damaging, their empty and 

906
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:18,700
eventually they are damning. 
So, what's some of our best 

907
00:48:18,700 --> 00:48:20,000
offense? 
And we're closing. 

908
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:23,700
Some of the best offense we have
is honoring male and female in 

909
00:48:23,700 --> 00:48:27,100
your Honoring male and female in
your household. 

910
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,900
If you're a husband and your 
wife continue to build God's 

911
00:48:30,900 --> 00:48:34,400
good design for polarity and the
male and female, if you're 

912
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:38,000
raising Sons or daughters build 
God's good design for polarity 

913
00:48:38,100 --> 00:48:43,100
in your children, boys, as boys 
girls as girls. 

914
00:48:43,100 --> 00:48:47,000
Don't be bullied away from the 
stereotypes and don't be 

915
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,800
terrified either. 
If your son plays with a doll, 

916
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,500
this is not the end of the 
world, but the point is we want 

917
00:48:52,500 --> 00:48:55,700
to encourage the things that men
R4, and the things that women 

918
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,100
are for. 
There's some things that they're

919
00:48:57,100 --> 00:49:00,800
both for, but there are some 
things that are distinct May own

920
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,200
female, and we rejoice in it, 
just like we Rejoice at a 

921
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,800
mountain and a valley. 
We Rejoice at an ocean and we 

922
00:49:08,808 --> 00:49:12,000
Rejoice at a desert or like, 
look at it, the Majesty of 

923
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,000
creation, look at the Majesty of
male and female. 

924
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,800
It's good, it's very good. 
It's good to be a man. 

925
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,300
If you're a man, it's good to be
a woman. 

926
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:24,000
If you're a woman, it's good to 
be a boy. 

927
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,900
If you're a boy it's good to be 
a girl. 

928
00:49:26,900 --> 00:49:31,900
If you're a girl it's good and 
we need not seek anything else. 

929
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,100
This is God's will for us. 
This is his plan for us. 

930
00:49:36,300 --> 00:49:39,800
So let our own household, be the
first thing before we go 

931
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:41,200
worrying. 
About whatever else is in our 

932
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:42,500
neighbors. 
I, let's make sure there's no 

933
00:49:42,500 --> 00:49:45,300
logs in our eyes. 
We have to continue to 

934
00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:48,000
prioritize. 
God's good design for male and 

935
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:52,600
female masculine and feminine. 
Stop being androgynous, stop 

936
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:56,300
being same. 
Be distinct and like God, 

937
00:49:56,300 --> 00:50:01,500
glorify his name through it all 
God, we pray for ourselves and 

938
00:50:01,500 --> 00:50:04,300
we ask that you would continue 
to show us what it looks like to

939
00:50:04,300 --> 00:50:07,800
be distinct male and female 
lord. 

940
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,400
Bring more clarity to us on what
it is to be a man and what it is

941
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,900
to be a woman according to your 
word, what are the purposes? 

942
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,100
And how can we live in them? 
Because it's in our purpose, 

943
00:50:18,100 --> 00:50:20,600
where will be fully satisfied. 
It's in our purpose. 

944
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:25,800

you and Only blessed walking in 

945
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:29,500

So we invite you God into salt 

946
00:50:29,500 --> 00:50:32,700
Church, to continue, to lead us 
into your perfect design for 

947
00:50:32,700 --> 00:50:35,800
male and female. 
You got, we invite. 

948
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:39,700
You also to make us a blessing 
to the world around us. 

949
00:50:40,100 --> 00:50:46,800
Help us to speak the truth. 
In love. not to be afraid not to

950
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:50,100
be as harmless as a dove, only 
not to be as wise as a serpent 

951
00:50:50,100 --> 00:50:53,800
only, but to be as wise as a 
serpent and harmless as a dove 

952
00:50:54,500 --> 00:50:59,900
genuinely caring about people 
who are perishing I'm 

953
00:50:59,900 --> 00:51:03,300
prioritizing the messages that 
should be prioritized. 

954
00:51:04,100 --> 00:51:06,500
We focus on these messages 
because these sins are so 

955
00:51:06,500 --> 00:51:09,300
flagrant. 
If our culture took a month, to 

956
00:51:09,300 --> 00:51:12,800
celebrate, any sin in particular
than we would wage war against 

957
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:17,200
that Sim. 
If our culture took a month to 

958
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:21,000
rejoice in lying, then we would 
wage war against lying. 

959
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:28,200
If our culture took a month to 
wage war against to celebrate 

960
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,500
any impurity than as your 
church, we would have to rise up

961
00:51:32,500 --> 00:51:36,300
with salt and light, 
specifically for that thing. 

962
00:51:37,500 --> 00:51:40,000
So that's what we do. 
God, we speak up with Truth and 

963
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:43,800
Love. 
Help us not to be swayed by man 

964
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:48,300
and to not fear, man, but to 
love you and love them and only 

965
00:51:48,300 --> 00:51:51,100
for you. 
Lead us out and power. 

966
00:51:51,100 --> 00:51:54,000
Holy Spirit. 
We don't just ask for boldness. 

967
00:51:54,000 --> 00:52:01,100
We ask for more of you, Thank

968
00:52:01,100 --> 00:52:03,800
