Give a smile to someone sitting 
around next to you and then 

43
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:25,600
let's have a seat. 
Alright, and if you are new here

44
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,300

real life church. 

45
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,600
We do have a couple next steps 
for you. 

46
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,800
And so, I'm gonna go ahead and 
bite you to pause your phone. 

47
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,100
Yes. 
You can have your phone out at 

48
00:18:34,100 --> 00:18:38,100
church and we have a couple next
steps to get just a little bit 

49
00:18:38,100 --> 00:18:41,400
more plugged in here at Real 
Life Church, if you can text RL 

50
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,700
new. 
Thousand know what that's going 

51
00:18:43,700 --> 00:18:46,400
to do, it's going to pull up our
digital communication card, just

52
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,200
a few short questions asking for
some pretty basic information 

53
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,800
that we will use to help follow 
up with you this week. 

54
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,900
You can get there the same way 
by scanning the QR code on the 

55
00:18:54,908 --> 00:18:57,200
seat back in front of you. 
And then I'll pull up that exact

56
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,700
same link if you are joining us 
in person. 

57
00:18:59,700 --> 00:19:02,600
Today, I invite you immediately 
after the Gathering to join us 

58
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,400
at our new here Booth where we 
do have a small gift for you. 

59
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,800
Just for making today, your home
for your church home. 

60
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,800
So thank you for that. 
It's tell you a little bit more 

61
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,800
about Real Life Church who we 
are. 

62
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,100
We are at church on Mission and 
you know, EC walk in here you 

63
00:19:18,100 --> 00:19:20,700
probably overwhelmed by all the 
lights, all the pipe and drape 

64
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:22,600
everything that we do to make 
this. 

65
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,100
You know, this is our church 
every single week. 

66
00:19:25,100 --> 00:19:27,200
And why do we do it? 
You know, why are we here? 

67
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,600
Why do we exist? 
Is because of this Mission, this

68
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,000
mission right here behind me to 
see people far from God discover

69
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,600
their real life and purpose in. 
Jesus and guys have you been 

70
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,100
enjoying this breakout Series? 
So far to start off the year? 

71
00:19:40,300 --> 00:19:43,000
If you're like me, you come in 
every Sunday morning, you ready 

72
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,600
fired up? 
And then the Wii comes and you 

73
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,900
kind of maybe forget what those 
resolutions are what you're 

74
00:19:48,900 --> 00:19:51,600
trying to accomplish. 
And so let's be reminded today 

75
00:19:51,700 --> 00:19:53,900
that this is a, not an easy 
thing to do. 

76
00:19:54,100 --> 00:19:57,200
But if we continue to make those
small changes in our lives, we 

77
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,400
will see our breakout, you 
really come to fruition. 

78
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,600
So, let's get over Pastor Sean, 
as we go into the word today. 

79
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:08,500
Come on. 
How you guys doing? 

80
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,100
Get a few Chiefs fans in the 
house. 

81
00:20:12,100 --> 00:20:16,900
I see. 
Oh yeah, we'll see, no Donuts 

82
00:20:16,900 --> 00:20:18,700
this year. 
It's all you have to say if your

83
00:20:18,700 --> 00:20:22,800
last year that stung. 
So anyway, man, are you guys 

84
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,700
feeling spirit guide your life 
this year so far? 

85
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,400
You feeling that the hand of 
God, just moving you a little 

86
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,500
bit. 
Maybe this Series has been just 

87
00:20:29,500 --> 00:20:31,900
kind of wake-up call really, for
me personally. 

88
00:20:31,900 --> 00:20:34,700
And for all of us is diving into
what it is to follow. 

89
00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:37,200
God, a different level. 
And if you've been with us for a

90
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,300
little bit of time or be a new 
day, I mean, kind of lead you 

91
00:20:39,300 --> 00:20:42,800
through been and it Started out 
really talk about ignition known

92
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,500
your personal, call read Vigor 
and reigniting. 

93
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,800
The things of God in your life 
and talk about Paul and how 

94
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,900
God's hand was on him and he 
followed God's call to Gentiles 

95
00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:54,400
and literally went before Kings 
and preached, the gospel, if you

96
00:20:54,408 --> 00:20:56,200
remember the story, we're back 
to David and Goliath. 

97
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,600
And how one man stepped on the 
battlefield and everything 

98
00:20:58,600 --> 00:20:59,600
changed. 
Amen. 

99
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,700
And last week, man, going 
through, Daniel in the Lion's 

100
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:05,300
Den. 
Now one man marked by prayer and

101
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,200
when a nation is against him, 
praise to God. 

102
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,500
And not only leads a nation and 
out of captivity. 

103
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,100
But the glory of God goes around
the world. 

104
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:15,700
Amen. 
And so today, we've just woven 

105
00:21:15,700 --> 00:21:17,900
through really kind of what it 
takes to take off and take 

106
00:21:17,900 --> 00:21:19,900
flight and to be fueled in the 
air through prayer. 

107
00:21:20,100 --> 00:21:22,100
And I want to talk about today, 
something very specific. 

108
00:21:22,300 --> 00:21:24,900
Something I think that just 
where we're at in this series 

109
00:21:25,100 --> 00:21:28,800
ruled the boldness to go to 
somewhere that's Uncharted to 

110
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,200
break the limits of your 
circumstance and really today as

111
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,300
Christians to break the limits 
of our current faith. 

112
00:21:35,500 --> 00:21:37,500
And so they were going to talk 
about is to be Uncharted. 

113
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,400
You think about people, we offer
are limited by voice. 

114
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,900
It's in our life, we've talked 
about that but also limited by 

115
00:21:42,900 --> 00:21:46,000
your own failures and learned by
our circumstances around us. 

116
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,600
And so I want to encourage you 
really the list of people that 

117
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,300
you're going to recognize that 
we're limited by circumstances, 

118
00:21:52,300 --> 00:21:55,700
by their own failure by those 
around them and broke through 

119
00:21:55,700 --> 00:21:57,800
the limits. 
And so, there's a few people, 

120
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,600
you might recognize the first 
is, this is Beethoven, he was 

121
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,800
told by his music teacher, 
that's composer. 

122
00:22:02,900 --> 00:22:05,500
He had no hope for that person 
was wrong. 

123
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:09,100
Right thing about Thomas Edison,
his high school teacher told me 

124
00:22:09,100 --> 00:22:12,300
that he was so stupid. 
The quote, he could not learn 

125
00:22:12,300 --> 00:22:14,400
anything. 
And they think about him after 

126
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,100
it really 10,000 times of 
trying. 

127
00:22:16,100 --> 00:22:18,200
He perfected the incandescent 
light bulb. 

128
00:22:18,300 --> 00:22:20,800
Hallelujah, amen. 
Praise God, you know, changed 

129
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,700
our lives right now, fact. 
I think about him. 

130
00:22:22,700 --> 00:22:24,700
It's like maybe just too stupid 
to quit on his dream. 

131
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,200
He's just too stupid to keep 
going after it. 

132
00:22:27,300 --> 00:22:30,400
Not to be defeated by somebody 
else's voice in his life. 

133
00:22:30,500 --> 00:22:32,100
You think about Walt Disney, 
Kansas City? 

134
00:22:32,100 --> 00:22:34,400
Come on somebody. 
I know what editor said this to 

135
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,000
him of a newspaper, but he told 
Walt Disney had quote. 

136
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,700
No good ideas, dude. 
I know about you, but But 

137
00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:43,300
there's probably none greater, 
they had ideas and creation than

138
00:22:43,300 --> 00:22:46,300
Walt Disney himself. 
You think about this Apollo 

139
00:22:46,300 --> 00:22:49,100
missions that went to the moon, 
the chief engineer for the 

140
00:22:49,100 --> 00:22:50,800
politicians was Warner Von 
Braun. 

141
00:22:51,100 --> 00:22:54,200
And he had failed, ninth grade 
algebra believe that he's 

142
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:55,700
probably bored. 
Come on somebody, right? 

143
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,600
But he could have been defeated.
He could have given up. 

144
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,300
He could have been labeled a 
failure, but instead he got back

145
00:23:01,300 --> 00:23:04,400
up and kept pursuing, I learn 
this is pretty unique to Abraham

146
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,500
Lincoln. 
He lost 18 elections on his 

147
00:23:06,500 --> 00:23:08,700
journey become president. 
Now credible. 

148
00:23:09,100 --> 00:23:11,300
I mean, I don't know about you 
but I wouldn't go. 18 times. 

149
00:23:11,300 --> 00:23:15,100
Come on right but just to get up
and go and just had a passion 

150
00:23:15,100 --> 00:23:17,400
and a drive. 
Drove him through all of these 

151
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,700
failures. 
There's a little-known guy. 

152
00:23:19,700 --> 00:23:21,800
You might know them if you're 
into science and all but name's 

153
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,500
Louise pasture and he's a French
scientist. 

154
00:23:24,500 --> 00:23:27,700
He came with the pasteurization 
process is a famous for the 

155
00:23:27,700 --> 00:23:30,300
father of microbiology and he 
was told by his chemistry 

156
00:23:30,300 --> 00:23:33,800
teacher in college that he was 
mediocre at best at chemistry. 

157
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,400
I'm you think about these people
and all the voices that could 

158
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,300
have just gotten off track or 
maybe their own failure? 

159
00:23:40,500 --> 00:23:43,400
Or their own circumstance, but I
don't know about you and what 

160
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,500
your experience is, but by love 
the incandescent light bulb. 

161
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:49,300
Come on somebody, I mean the 
Fifth Symphony. 

162
00:23:49,300 --> 00:23:50,900
Come on! 
Some it dumb dumb dumb dumb that

163
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:52,700
song probably came from when he 
got that bad news. 

164
00:23:52,700 --> 00:23:54,900
They can't do anything. 
He's got motivated to write that

165
00:23:54,900 --> 00:23:56,400
song at that moment. 
Right? 

166
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:57,800
You know I'm saying just like 
that downtown to. 

167
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,500
Thank you. 
Goodbye. 

168
00:23:59,700 --> 00:24:02,800
I mean just amazing, right? 
You think about the light bulb? 

169
00:24:02,900 --> 00:24:05,100
I know, you know this but Thomas
Edison has became the founder 

170
00:24:05,100 --> 00:24:08,300
and CEO of what you currently 
know as General Electric. 

171
00:24:08,700 --> 00:24:12,200
Thank God for GE that we Really 
have the wherewithal and the 

172
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,700
median to live in this 
generation. 

173
00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:16,500
And how do we have? 
I love most Disney movies. 

174
00:24:16,500 --> 00:24:18,600
They've gotten kind of strange 
literally lately. 

175
00:24:19,900 --> 00:24:21,100
You haven't seen it? 
That's okay. 

176
00:24:21,700 --> 00:24:23,900
I know my kids they love 
spending five thousand dollars 

177
00:24:23,900 --> 00:24:26,000
or their parents money to go to 
Disneyland and Disney World. 

178
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,100
Come on, somebody all the 
children said, amen. 

179
00:24:28,100 --> 00:24:31,100
Praise God, you know, right? 
I love space exploration. 

180
00:24:31,100 --> 00:24:35,400
I love watching people and just 
take Innovation and go into new 

181
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,900
boundaries and do limits and to 
push beyond the status quo and 

182
00:24:38,900 --> 00:24:40,400
to see what has been 
accomplished his face. 

183
00:24:40,500 --> 00:24:42,100
It's absolutely amazing. 
I'm about you had less 

184
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:43,600
pasteurize milk. 
Come on somebody. 

185
00:24:43,700 --> 00:24:45,100
Hashtag Chateau. 
Come on. 

186
00:24:45,100 --> 00:24:46,900
Where's my Chateau people? 
That's good. 

187
00:24:46,900 --> 00:24:48,000
Just dying. 
That's great. 

188
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,800
Yep. 
It e granola woman over there. 

189
00:24:51,300 --> 00:24:53,200
It's great you drive up and is 
like what's that bot? 

190
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,200
Au. 
Chateau people don't judge me. 

191
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,900
Come on somebody right. 
Drop a diesel but we have 

192
00:24:57,900 --> 00:25:00,700
Chateau, it's great but I will 
tell you this year is your 

193
00:25:00,700 --> 00:25:02,500
breakout year, but we got to 
move beyond the limits for God. 

194
00:25:02,500 --> 00:25:04,900
Amen. 
We gotta move into Uncharted 

195
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:06,900
Territory. 
I mean, we're not going to play 

196
00:25:06,900 --> 00:25:09,800
it safe as Christians, you never
change the role by playing it 

197
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,800
safe. 
Like we got to go to places that

198
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,800
God is calling us to go. 
We gotta move when other people 

199
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,700
say. 
It's not possible when it's even

200
00:25:16,700 --> 00:25:19,100
beyond your own faith. 
You've got to take another step 

201
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:19,900
of Faith. 
Amen. 

202
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,900
When they say the fruit is out 
on the limb, you've got to go 

203
00:25:23,900 --> 00:25:26,300
where God is calling you to go. 
Do you think the god of the 

204
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:31,100
universe created, you sent Jesus
to be crucified on the cross and

205
00:25:31,100 --> 00:25:35,200
saved you in Porter's, Holy 
Spirit into, you generously to 

206
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,900
play it safe. 
Do you think he wants to be 

207
00:25:37,900 --> 00:25:40,100
limited by other people's 
realities? 

208
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,700
Do you think he wants you to 
stay comfortable or to move into

209
00:25:43,700 --> 00:25:47,100
the places that he has for you? 
Here's what I know, one day. 

210
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,300
Your legacy will built on the 
faith and the boundaries that 

211
00:25:51,300 --> 00:25:53,700
you went into the one day. 
People are going to thank God 

212
00:25:53,700 --> 00:25:55,400
for you. 
If you take the space of God's 

213
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,800
called you to take, if you take 
the ground that God's called you

214
00:25:57,808 --> 00:25:59,500
to take, you think about your 
life. 

215
00:25:59,500 --> 00:26:02,800
I'm sure you're thankful for the
people that went before you that

216
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,000
had enough Faith to tell you 
about Jesus, amen. 

217
00:26:06,300 --> 00:26:08,200
Cuz I'm sure it was awkward, 
right? 

218
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,300
It was weird how it went down 
the friends. 

219
00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:12,700
Divide, your, maybe, your 
parents are or whatever. 

220
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:14,900
Right? 
I think about my story and just 

221
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:18,900
from a personal level thankful 
for those in my life, the 

222
00:26:18,900 --> 00:26:22,400
honored God by taking off work 
on Sunday to show up and teach a

223
00:26:22,408 --> 00:26:27,300
nobody about somebody, come on 
about Jesus and they cared for 

224
00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:31,200
me and love me to Jesus. 
And that was a talk about a 

225
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:36,400
youth group leader that has a 
full-time job somewhere else. 

226
00:26:36,700 --> 00:26:40,600
Working at his tail off in the 
business world, but take Take 

227
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,900
time off to pour into somebody 
like me. 

228
00:26:43,100 --> 00:26:45,800
Now, there's nothing sexy about 
serving in youth group. 

229
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,100
Come on somebody. 
Yeah, I know you got some here, 

230
00:26:49,100 --> 00:26:50,200
right? 
And what do you tell your 

231
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,100
friends on Sunday night, right? 
Hey, you wanna hang out? 

232
00:26:53,100 --> 00:26:54,900
I know, man. 
I'm like, got this, I'm going 

233
00:26:54,900 --> 00:26:56,500
this youth group. 
And I'm like, pulling his kids 

234
00:26:56,500 --> 00:26:59,100
for Jesus like, okay, you know, 
whatever man, right. 

235
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,500
I mean, it's just weird, right? 
But the reality is, for those 

236
00:27:01,500 --> 00:27:03,300
people. 
Pour your life into the forever 

237
00:27:03,300 --> 00:27:04,700
change for the kingdom of God, 
Amen. 

238
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,300
It is going beyond the boundary.
It's abnormal for people to take

239
00:27:09,300 --> 00:27:12,000
time out of their life. 
Give it to God, it is very 

240
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,500
abnormal but I believe people 
can thank God for their fourth 

241
00:27:14,500 --> 00:27:15,800
grade. 
When you a call Sunday school, 

242
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,000
teacher or real-life kid leader 
that when they look back and say

243
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,100
thank you Miss Christy. 
Thank you for those people who 

244
00:27:21,100 --> 00:27:23,500
served for point in my life 
because wasn't for you I 

245
00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:25,300
wouldn't be here today. 
There's so many you that have 

246
00:27:25,300 --> 00:27:27,900
those stories, right? 
I mean people can thank God for 

247
00:27:27,900 --> 00:27:29,500
the Hope Center. 
They got counseling and that 

248
00:27:29,500 --> 00:27:32,500
freedom and they met adults that
love God and love them and 

249
00:27:32,500 --> 00:27:34,400
they're forever changed as 
teenagers because your youth 

250
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,000
groups going to meet there. 
Amen. 

251
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,000
This was called by faith, not by
sight. 

252
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,400
It makes no sense on a fan. 
Shal spreadsheet. 

253
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,300
There's a lot of better things 
to do. 

254
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,700
They're all too busy to do 
things, but the reality is, God 

255
00:27:45,700 --> 00:27:50,900
is calling us to live by faith 
and what we can't see in him. 

256
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,500
So, I wonder how Mr day would 
leave here. 

257
00:27:52,500 --> 00:27:55,200
And say, you know, I'll be bold,
I'm a breakthrough year, I'm 

258
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,100
going to do things that go 
against the grain. 

259
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:58,800
I'm gonna move into uncharted 
waters. 

260
00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:01,200
I'm going to step out in faith. 
That makes no sense that people 

261
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,700
around me, even my family and my
enemies. 

262
00:28:03,700 --> 00:28:05,800
It makes no sense. 
I'm going to follow God. 

263
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,300
Where is called me on, least 
willing today to say yes to 

264
00:28:08,300 --> 00:28:12,900
Jesus at every single level. 
No longer limited by what they 

265
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,500
think of me or what if I mess 
up. 

266
00:28:15,500 --> 00:28:17,100
So, what if you mess up? 
Come on somebody. 

267
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,900
You learn from your failure. 
A man, I don't know what to say.

268
00:28:19,900 --> 00:28:21,500
You hear all the time, don't say
well, you will learn what to 

269
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:23,100
say, right? 
You'll bar phone. 

270
00:28:23,100 --> 00:28:25,700
Jesus out a little bit and then 
you get better right on too 

271
00:28:25,700 --> 00:28:27,300
busy. 
It's like, do you got different 

272
00:28:27,300 --> 00:28:29,400
values? 
You're not too busy to leave the

273
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,500
cause of Christ. 
I've never done that before. 

274
00:28:31,900 --> 00:28:33,000
No. 
No, you're going to learn some 

275
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,000
new ways to do it. 
Amen. 

276
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:35,800
We're gonna try some new things 
this year. 

277
00:28:36,100 --> 00:28:37,300
Well, maybe when the kids leave 
home? 

278
00:28:37,300 --> 00:28:39,900
No, no, they need it now a 
couple days ago. 

279
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,600
My daughter. 
She's four years old and she 

280
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,900
wanted to see mommy's wedding 
dress because they pulled the 

281
00:28:44,908 --> 00:28:46,900
box out because we've warned 
that so many times, right? 

282
00:28:46,900 --> 00:28:49,000
Essence that they end up. 
So they pulled the box out and 

283
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,300
go get some pictures and so 
Diane gets to the wedding book 

284
00:28:51,300 --> 00:28:53,400
and, you know, dust that thing 
off, right? 

285
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,400
And so, flip through the 
pictures and you're seeing all 

286
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,300
these memories in a room and 
listening and just sharing 

287
00:28:57,300 --> 00:29:00,000
stories and all this and no. 
And I just be real honest with 

288
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,700
you. 
We aren't getting any younger. 

289
00:29:03,300 --> 00:29:05,200
Come on, somebody. 
Have you gone back to your 

290
00:29:05,208 --> 00:29:10,200
wedding pictures recently now, 
Diane she's exception. 

291
00:29:10,500 --> 00:29:13,000
Also about it right but we're 
not getting any younger I'm like

292
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,200
wow. 
Okay and we got to move in a 

293
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,100
direction. 
We have lived by faith. 

294
00:29:18,100 --> 00:29:20,700
You know, it's been 15 years 
since that day and a lots 

295
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:23,200
changed, you know? 
I don't know you skipped like 

296
00:29:23,500 --> 00:29:26,000
pant sizes and those years, you 
know I'm saying, like just I'll 

297
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,300
know you go from like, 32 up. 
It's just, there's not even 

298
00:29:28,500 --> 00:29:30,600
whatever, right? 
Just what happens, we're not 

299
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,800
getting younger, but the reality
is this, and I truly believe 

300
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,200
this, that so many of us are 
limited by fear or limb by 

301
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:40,500
circumstance or limited by our 
very faith that we almost Can 

302
00:29:40,500 --> 00:29:44,200
limit the work of God and the 
kingdom of God into extinction 

303
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:49,900
by delaying and deferring, the 
mission that God has for us. 

304
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:55,200
You think about it. 
If it's not us then who who who 

305
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,900
will carry the mantle of the 
cause of Christ forward in our 

306
00:29:59,300 --> 00:30:01,400
generation. 
So I'm going to damn is zoom in 

307
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,300
and it's give you awesome 
because we resume in the Hall of

308
00:30:03,300 --> 00:30:06,400
Fame of Faith, Hebrews 11, if 
you're not familiar going to get

309
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,400
familiar. 
I mean this, this is just as 

310
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,600
like the the Medal of Honor 
First, you know, the Purple 

311
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,900
Heart. 
This is it like this is like the

312
00:30:13,900 --> 00:30:18,000
men and women that led the way 
of ancient times with faith. 

313
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,000
And so I'll do a day, is this 
invite you guys to invite God to

314
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,300
speaking to you today. 
So you guys can put your hands 

315
00:30:23,300 --> 00:30:25,200

series just to get in the 

316
00:30:25,208 --> 00:30:27,900
presence of God knows going to 
pray over you and to invite God 

317
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:30,600

Father, we come before you and I

318
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,300
pray you speak a word in to us 
today. 

319
00:30:32,300 --> 00:30:37,300
God, that we live by bold faith.
God, if you replace fear in our 

320
00:30:37,300 --> 00:30:42,200
hearts your place the temporary,
the sir From Stan's the voices, 

321
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,900
with the Eternal, with the 
Unseen. 

322
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,000
And today we live by faith. 
Not by sight. 

323
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:52,600
Not by fear, not by worry, not 
by yield now my own 

324
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,500
righteousness. 
God, but we just step-by-step 

325
00:30:54,500 --> 00:30:56,100
follow you. 
So you got speak to us. 

326
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,900
God, you're surfing is here. 
So speak got here. 

327
00:30:58,900 --> 00:31:01,200
My send me got wherever you call
me to go. 

328
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,500
I'm willing to go and I pray 
this in Jesus name and the 

329
00:31:04,500 --> 00:31:07,600
church said, amen. 
And so, we're going to dive in 

330
00:31:07,608 --> 00:31:10,800
the Hall of Fame of faith and 
really there's so many Lessons 

331
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,600
of faith in here. 
I mean obviously we're not going

332
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,900
to be able to go deep dive on 
all these but I encourage you, 

333
00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:18,300
if you're looking for a word 
that's going to speak to your 

334
00:31:18,300 --> 00:31:21,600
heart man get into Hebrews. 11 
will jump in and verse 1 says 

335
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,500
this. 
Now, Faith is the confidence of 

336
00:31:24,500 --> 00:31:28,300
the word confidence is simply 
trust in what we hope for and 

337
00:31:28,300 --> 00:31:31,500
Assurance, this insurance is a 
positive belief, it's an 

338
00:31:31,500 --> 00:31:34,000
affirmation vote and all the 
things of God. 

339
00:31:34,100 --> 00:31:36,900
And so now Faith is confidence 
will hope for and Assurance 

340
00:31:36,900 --> 00:31:40,200
about, we have not seen, this is
what the Ancients to talk. 

341
00:31:40,300 --> 00:31:43,800
About the Ancients of Faith were
commended for this is what these

342
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,300
ancients were praised for. 
When you got done, the end of 

343
00:31:46,308 --> 00:31:48,600
the race when you're going 
through the Gates of Heaven is 

344
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,700
like, man, this is it. 
You're a big Faith. 

345
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:51,900
This is why they were plotted 
this. 

346
00:31:51,900 --> 00:31:53,800
Why they're saluted? 
This is why they got the Medal 

347
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,500
of Honor. 
This was it. 

348
00:31:55,500 --> 00:31:59,300
They live by faith and so they 
were going to see the story of 

349
00:31:59,300 --> 00:32:02,000
all these ancients woven 
together and rule the gold day 

350
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,600
is not to get Faith into your 
head. 

351
00:32:03,700 --> 00:32:06,200
The goal today is get Faith. 
Great faith. 

352
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,500
Mountain-moving faith into our 
hearts, amen. 

353
00:32:09,100 --> 00:32:11,900
There's a lot of many There's 
not a lot of people have great 

354
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,300
faith and so you can see over 
this chapter is going to be 23 

355
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:18,600
times and it's more but just the
phrase by Faith by Faith, by 

356
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,400
faith. 
This person that person, this 

357
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,600
person that person there's more 
stories of faith and the 23, but

358
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,800
says this in verse 3, it says by
faith, we understand that the 

359
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:31,500
Universe was formed at what 
helped me out at I God's 

360
00:32:31,500 --> 00:32:34,900
commands by faith, we believe we
didn't come out of some some 

361
00:32:34,900 --> 00:32:38,400
premortal sludge that it wasn't 
an accident or just happened 

362
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,100
chance or some evolutionary 
moment of time. 

363
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,900
But by faith we believe that God
commanded he spoke the universe 

364
00:32:45,900 --> 00:32:48,300
into existence. 
Now by happened chance and so 

365
00:32:48,300 --> 00:32:51,500
that what was seen was not made 
out of what is visible. 

366
00:32:51,700 --> 00:32:54,400
I love this, when God decided to
create the universe to create 

367
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,100
the cosmos when God decided to 
create everything we know and 

368
00:32:58,100 --> 00:33:03,200
see and look at he simply Lee 
spoke it into existence. 

369
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,100
A men, who knows when God speaks
Everything Changes, like I don't

370
00:33:07,100 --> 00:33:10,600
limit the voice of God to you. 
I mean if God says left, it just

371
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,800
turns left, he says, stars are 
stars his light. 

372
00:33:12,900 --> 00:33:15,400
He says see he says, oh she says
land, boom. 

373
00:33:15,500 --> 00:33:16,900
It is something very specific 
for us though. 

374
00:33:16,900 --> 00:33:19,600
He formed us out dirt and 
intimate, formed us, and gave us

375
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,300
a living soul. 
And that's why we're the only 

376
00:33:22,300 --> 00:33:24,700
thing create an image of God and
we know God, there's a 

377
00:33:24,700 --> 00:33:26,400
god-shaped hole in each of Our 
Lives. 

378
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:30,300
The only God can fill separates 
us from all rest of creation. 

379
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,400
Verse 4 says this by faith Abel 
brought got a better offer than 

380
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,500
Cain did by faith. 
He was commended, he was 

381
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:42,000
applauded as a righteous when 
God spoke well of his offering 

382
00:33:42,300 --> 00:33:44,500
maybe even a real story of Cain 
and Abel is the second 

383
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:47,300
generation of humanity and 
enables bringing a better 

384
00:33:47,300 --> 00:33:50,700
offering to God than Cain is 
able to his first Roots. 

385
00:33:50,700 --> 00:33:53,700
Remember that he took his the 
first of the flocks to give the 

386
00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:56,800
very best to God and Kane. 
He decided to give God his 

387
00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,200
leftovers, but Abel was being 
commended and came became very 

388
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:01,900
jealous. 
Ellis and says this, and by 

389
00:34:01,900 --> 00:34:05,900
faith Abel still speaks even 
though he's dead, this is an 

390
00:34:05,900 --> 00:34:07,200
amazing verse because you read 
this. 

391
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,600
Like what in the world is this? 
Talk about that able still 

392
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,600
speaking today to happened. 
That story is King got jealousy,

393
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,400
met a ball on the field and he 
killed, he took Abel out and he 

394
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,400
killed him and his blood was 
shed in Outfield. 

395
00:34:19,500 --> 00:34:22,300
And it says this in Genesis 
4:10, it says the Lord said to 

396
00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:26,500
Cain, what have you done? 
Listen, your brother's blood 

397
00:34:26,500 --> 00:34:31,900
cries out to me from the ground.
Now, I love this verse because 

398
00:34:31,900 --> 00:34:34,800
what's happened is that even 
though able is dead, which by 

399
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,800
the way, he's the first martyr 
for God. 

400
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:39,600
Amen is very interesting to 
think about, but it was the 

401
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,000
second generation that the first
martyr, because Abel's, living 

402
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,500
by faith and was killed for his 
faith because he pleased God. 

403
00:34:45,699 --> 00:34:48,900
And so, his blood is crying out.
It's crying out for against 

404
00:34:48,900 --> 00:34:53,900
Justice against sin and God of 
all God hears, the voice of 

405
00:34:53,900 --> 00:34:57,100
Abel's blood is crying out. 
Even speaking till today. 

406
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,600
Now, what's amazing about this 
is even if you die for your 

407
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,800
faith. 
I know we're going heavy, right?

408
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,800
But if you had died for your 
faith, that got that the world 

409
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:09,000
may Kill the Messenger, but the 
message lives on, Amen. 

410
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,300
There's a reason they call it 
the voice of the martyrs because

411
00:35:13,300 --> 00:35:17,100
the blood still speaks Justice. 
And I think about the second 

412
00:35:17,100 --> 00:35:21,100
generation is still crying out 
to God for justice against sin, 

413
00:35:21,300 --> 00:35:22,500
and, and there's a great 
parallel. 

414
00:35:22,500 --> 00:35:25,300
We're not gonna be able to get 
into it today, but God, but 

415
00:35:25,300 --> 00:35:27,900
Jesus blood speaks a better word
v, read Hebrews, 13. 

416
00:35:27,900 --> 00:35:30,300
You're going to enjoy that. 
And we may get to that in our 

417
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,900
It's the series right Easter, 
but it's amazing to see how 

418
00:35:34,900 --> 00:35:38,900
faith of able led to his voice. 
Still speaking long, past his 

419
00:35:38,900 --> 00:35:42,800
life and the Legacy, we leave is
really built on the foundation 

420
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,000
of faith that we live in every 
single day. 

421
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,500
We make that choice. 
Hebrews 11:5 says, this by 

422
00:35:47,500 --> 00:35:50,600
faith, Enoch was taken from this
life. 

423
00:35:50,700 --> 00:35:53,800
So he did not experience death, 
he could not be found. 

424
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,800
I love that. 
This is the way to go right here

425
00:35:56,100 --> 00:35:59,500
because God had taken him away. 
Now, I know if you're familiar 

426
00:35:59,500 --> 00:36:02,600
with this story, there's two 
different times in the Bible, 

427
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,700
where somebody doesn't die, 
there's taken straight to 

428
00:36:04,700 --> 00:36:06,700
heaven. 
And so Enoch is says in these 

429
00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:10,100
translated to heaven, and he's 
just gone, and he's just 

430
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:11,400
amazing. 
And I know, you know, Elijah 

431
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:12,900
story, right? 
Like that Chariot of fire like 

432
00:36:12,900 --> 00:36:14,600
rides up. 
That's the way to exit. 

433
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,200
Amen. 
That's the way to go, just skip 

434
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,300
the whole process, get the view,
the world been cruising out to 

435
00:36:20,300 --> 00:36:21,800
Heaven. 
I mean, this is it. 

436
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,600
So Enoch, he looks so much like 
heaven that he wasn't worthy to 

437
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,500
live on earth anymore. 
That's what it means to live by 

438
00:36:28,500 --> 00:36:29,300
faith. 
Amen. 

439
00:36:29,900 --> 00:36:31,600
I'm yes, sir. 
Much of God in you. 

440
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,900
That guy was like, it's time to 
come home now. 

441
00:36:33,900 --> 00:36:36,100
I think that should be, we 
should be the generation of the 

442
00:36:36,107 --> 00:36:37,200
Chariot of fire. 
Amen. 

443
00:36:37,700 --> 00:36:39,900
We should be the generation that
God says, send down some 

444
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:42,400
chariots for those boys, because
they've been living by faith so 

445
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:43,800
much. 
Let's go and take him up to 

446
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,200
heaven because we're Earth is 
even worthy of them. 

447
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:50,000
Get ahead of myself. 
But man, I really am. 

448
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,400
But I'm telling you living by 
faith. 

449
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:55,600
And then there he says this for 
he was taken, he was commended 

450
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,900
his applauded. 
You saluted as one who pleased 

451
00:36:57,900 --> 00:37:00,300
God made the greatest honor, we 
get to have. 

452
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,500
In this life is to please God. 
Amen. 

453
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,100
Not to police people. 
People always gonna be able to 

454
00:37:05,107 --> 00:37:06,800
share with you if they're not 
upset with you. 

455
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,900
Then you part of the problem. 
Come on somebody. 

456
00:37:09,300 --> 00:37:11,000
It's true. 
You're pushing uphill. 

457
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,600
You live in a fallen culture, 
you live under a Fallen Kingdom 

458
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,600
but we serve the king. 
And so we move forward in a 

459
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,100
direction. 
God is calling us to go. 

460
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,400
He was letting 6 and this is the
first you got to put in your 

461
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,500
heart. 
This is really the disgrace of 

462
00:37:21,508 --> 00:37:23,300
scripture. 
The faith it says without faith,

463
00:37:23,300 --> 00:37:28,000
it is what it is. 
It's impossible to please God, 

464
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,000
what that's saying is no matter 
what you do, no matter what you 

465
00:37:31,008 --> 00:37:34,000
accumulate and my what you buy, 
then what you give the church, 

466
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,800
how much you read the Bible? 
Now about you, you pray or how 

467
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,500
much you come or whatever you do
in life is all secondary. 

468
00:37:40,700 --> 00:37:44,200
Could never please God compared 
to your faith. 

469
00:37:44,500 --> 00:37:46,300
And so they good question is, 
where is your faith? 

470
00:37:46,300 --> 00:37:50,500
That adds, how much is God, 
pleased by your faith, says 

471
00:37:50,500 --> 00:37:52,600
this, because anyone who comes 
to him, must believe that he 

472
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:57,300
exists and that he rewards those
who Earnestly seek him. 

473
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,500
I think my earnestly seek Him, 
man. 

474
00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:02,400
That's like intense conviction. 
It's like when you open the 

475
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,000
Bible and start reading it and 
you're like, this is so true. 

476
00:38:05,100 --> 00:38:08,200
Come on, speak to me. 
God, yes, that's good. 

477
00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:10,600
I'm gonna follow that and it 
doesn't just transform your 

478
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,600
mind. 
It transforms your life, it 

479
00:38:12,607 --> 00:38:15,700
transforms your heart because 
you are trusting Jesus, because 

480
00:38:15,700 --> 00:38:17,400
he is faithful. 
Amen. 

481
00:38:17,900 --> 00:38:20,000
And so those who come by faith, 
please God. 

482
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,700
And so you may be wondering 
like, man, why don't I get off 

483
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:23,300
the ground? 
It may be because you've been 

484
00:38:23,300 --> 00:38:25,100
doing it your own power and your
own strength. 

485
00:38:25,300 --> 00:38:28,500
And your own will but you need 
to live in the faith of God. 

486
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,800
I'll say this, there's a huge 
difference between faith and 

487
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,400
belief. 
You think about a smoker right? 

488
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,600
Habitual smoker? 
We all know we all know, we've 

489
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,200
been told a million times. 
It's on the box. 

490
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,300
I mean these are ads campaigns 
against this right, the whole 

491
00:38:41,300 --> 00:38:43,000
world used to smoke. 
You watch old Disney, movies, 

492
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000
everybody smoking? 
Pinocchio, come on somebody, 

493
00:38:45,100 --> 00:38:46,700
right? 
I mean, just what I once 

494
00:38:46,700 --> 00:38:49,300
ashtrays and the planes, you 
know, I mean, just like all the 

495
00:38:49,300 --> 00:38:51,100
things, right? 
But the whole world knows, you 

496
00:38:51,100 --> 00:38:55,200
know, it's unhealthy to smoke, 
it can cause death we. 

497
00:38:55,300 --> 00:38:58,300
Know that people believe that 
their stand that, but most 

498
00:38:58,300 --> 00:39:01,100
people continue in that habit. 
If there'd been that habit, 

499
00:39:01,100 --> 00:39:02,600
right? 
Like, they know better, you have

500
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,300
family members of people, maybe 
it's yourself. 

501
00:39:04,300 --> 00:39:07,400
Like, I've been trying to quit 
like, you know it but the faith 

502
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,600
is the action part of it, right?
I mean, think about the demons, 

503
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,400
they believe. 
I mean, they tremble, they 

504
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,300
understand I'm the I'm wrong, 
but they don't have any faith. 

505
00:39:16,900 --> 00:39:20,900
They'll follow God, they didn't 
change their allegiance, it 

506
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:23,400
didn't move them to other side 
of the equation. 

507
00:39:23,700 --> 00:39:26,500
And so belief and Faith are A 
little different like you can 

508
00:39:26,500 --> 00:39:27,700
believe something, but do you 
have the faith? 

509
00:39:27,700 --> 00:39:30,200
Did you have a bead Ian's? 
Are you willing to put your 

510
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,300
money where your mouth is? 
Come on somebody. 

511
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,500
You want to walk the walk, not 
just say the talk, right? 

512
00:39:35,700 --> 00:39:37,200
And so you want to please God 
below. 

513
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,200
If you limit, you gotta live by 
faith, you get a journalist 

514
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,000
earnestly seek God. 
That means when you read the 

515
00:39:41,008 --> 00:39:43,000
word of God, like, dude, this is
so true. 

516
00:39:43,100 --> 00:39:44,900
It doesn't matter. 
Whatever else is thinking, this 

517
00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:46,200
is the way God has called me to 
go. 

518
00:39:46,300 --> 00:39:48,900
It means that we are so 
passionate about God because the

519
00:39:48,900 --> 00:39:51,600
spirit God your life and say, 
hey God told me you some of us 

520
00:39:51,607 --> 00:39:53,700
got say no to people. 
So I love you. 

521
00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:56,500
I do love you. 
You'll feel that way, right? 

522
00:39:56,500 --> 00:39:59,700
I love you, but I'm going to 
follow God's voice on this one. 

523
00:40:00,300 --> 00:40:01,800
That's how we rise up. 
Amen. 

524
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,000
You gotta go against the culture
if everybody agrees with you. 

525
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,100
That looks like the world did. 
You probably should be doing 

526
00:40:07,100 --> 00:40:09,900
something a little different and
you go to God, you take a blank 

527
00:40:09,900 --> 00:40:12,500
piece of paper and you sign name
at the bottom say Okay, God, 

528
00:40:12,500 --> 00:40:15,000
whatever you put on it. 
I'm going to go over boundary 

529
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,100
after cross over charred 
territory, God's not call you to

530
00:40:18,100 --> 00:40:20,300
play it. 
Safe, kind of tell you that. 

531
00:40:20,300 --> 00:40:23,100
God not call you to be in the 
comfort zone of life. 

532
00:40:23,300 --> 00:40:25,100
He didn't call it a float. 
I was said dead. 

533
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:26,900
Fish flows Downstream. 
Come on, somebody. 

534
00:40:27,100 --> 00:40:29,700
You don't have to do anything to
flow along with the world that 

535
00:40:29,700 --> 00:40:32,400
God has called us to be 
countercultural by faith. 

536
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,200
Amen. 
Some of y'all, look at your 

537
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,700
family's like dude, I got to be 
that guy for my family. 

538
00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:39,100
Like I'd be the generational 
change, it was for me and my 

539
00:40:39,100 --> 00:40:41,500
house, I love you all. 
Mama serve the Lord, amen. 

540
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,900
So I'm going to go right? 
I know you left. 

541
00:40:43,900 --> 00:40:46,000
I'm going right. 
All right, I'm gonna, I'm gonna 

542
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,000
follow God with this. 
I'm going to take that that 

543
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,700
step. 
So we don't be friends, but the 

544
00:40:49,700 --> 00:40:52,500
reality is only follow Jesus. 
Verse 7, says, it's by faith. 

545
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:56,700
Noah we warned about things. 
Not yet seen it never rained 

546
00:40:56,700 --> 00:40:58,300
before. 
Noah built a boat. 

547
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,700
Come on somebody. 
That's awkward a, right? 

548
00:41:00,700 --> 00:41:02,900
The whole years you're building 
up about like, what is going on,

549
00:41:02,900 --> 00:41:04,700
it's going to rain. 
So what in the would talk about 

550
00:41:04,700 --> 00:41:08,900
it says in what helped me out 
and what in Holy fear? 

551
00:41:09,300 --> 00:41:11,700
Yeah, that's that's what that's 
how you go to God, right. 

552
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,700
Fear God not man, right? 
And holy reverence like okay the

553
00:41:15,700 --> 00:41:19,400
word of God says God speaking to
me, I'm going to take it with 

554
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,300
him. 
I'll put all in on Jesus. 

555
00:41:21,300 --> 00:41:24,400
I'm like, I'm like Nitro Circus 
done thinking, right? 

556
00:41:24,700 --> 00:41:27,300
You, you're going for you taking
the jump, you're taking a leap, 

557
00:41:27,300 --> 00:41:29,400
that's what faith is. 
It's trusting, if I sit on the 

558
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,600
stool, I trust the fact that's 
going to hold me and when Jesus 

559
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,600
says, just we need to do, I'm 
just gonna trust the fact that's

560
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:35,800
going to happen. 
Who knows? 

561
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:37,100
God's promise is always come 
true. 

562
00:41:37,700 --> 00:41:40,000
Amen. 
It's never, he's faithful and 

563
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:41,000
true. 
If he says it it's going to 

564
00:41:41,008 --> 00:41:43,400
happen is we got speaks a word 
into your life. 

565
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,800
I've got nudges, you had 
rection, don't be afraid of 

566
00:41:45,808 --> 00:41:49,900
failing, be afraid to stay in 
the same, you know, because 

567
00:41:49,900 --> 00:41:51,800
God's in it and he's in a he 
want he wants to see you 

568
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,900
through. 
He says by faith and holy fear, 

569
00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:56,500
he built an ark to save his 
family and by faith, he 

570
00:41:56,500 --> 00:41:59,000
condemned the world and became 
heir of righteousness. 

571
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,100
You see a comparison between 
faith and righteousness. 

572
00:42:01,100 --> 00:42:05,200
Here all the time, doesn't 
keeping with the Faith by faith 

573
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,000
Abraham. 
And this is a boy to study right

574
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,400
here. 
By faith Abraham, when called to

575
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,300
go to a place. 
He would later receive as 

576
00:42:11,300 --> 00:42:15,700
inheritance obeyed and went even
though help me out, he did not 

577
00:42:15,700 --> 00:42:19,700
know where he was going. 
I love this. 

578
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:21,600
This is maybe the greatest 
picture of faith. 

579
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,800
I mean, you have this. 
Basically God goes to Abraham 

580
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:25,900
and says, hey, I'm gonna make a 
great nation of you and he says,

581
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:28,100
you're gonna leave the Earth of 
the Chaldeans and you're gonna 

582
00:42:28,100 --> 00:42:30,800
go to a place that I will 
eventually show you. 

583
00:42:30,900 --> 00:42:34,300
This man is extremely wealthy 
has extreme livestock. 

584
00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:36,400
All these things packs, his 
family up intense. 

585
00:42:36,500 --> 00:42:39,400
He starts going Going not even 
knowing the destination. 

586
00:42:39,500 --> 00:42:42,900
None of you got in the car ever 
in your life maybe once right. 

587
00:42:43,100 --> 00:42:45,600
And didn't know where you're 
going to go you know you knew 

588
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,000
for sure. 
You're going to Big Daddy Donuts

589
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,700
to. 
Come on somebody, you knew for 

590
00:42:48,700 --> 00:42:50,400
sure you're going to go to the 
scooters. 

591
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:51,900
But for him is like, I don't 
know. 

592
00:42:51,900 --> 00:42:55,400
God, let's just start on this 
path together and by faith. 

593
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,900
He packed his stuff up and went 
and obeyed. 

594
00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:59,600
God. 
He moved outside, the 

595
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,300
comfortable. 
I mean, in other words, he went 

596
00:43:01,300 --> 00:43:03,500
past the reef. 
Come on somebody, right? 

597
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,300
He moved Beyond Moana movement, 
right? 

598
00:43:05,300 --> 00:43:07,300
Like I'm the pursue out the 
distance. 

599
00:43:07,500 --> 00:43:09,500
And go, where God has called me 
to go? 

600
00:43:09,700 --> 00:43:12,600
Can I tell you today? 
There's no military issue. 

601
00:43:12,700 --> 00:43:16,400
Lazy Boy recliner 's. 
Come on somebody, you'll join 

602
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,600
the kingdom of God and get 
comfortable. 

603
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,600
You don't get the front line in 
a trench and expect it to be 

604
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,700
easy. 
When you take the ground that 

605
00:43:23,700 --> 00:43:26,100
you need to take in your life, 
the ground that God's called you

606
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:28,800
to take. 
It is a difficult Journey, like 

607
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:33,500
self crucifixion, self-emptying 
self-denial, losing yourself, 

608
00:43:33,500 --> 00:43:35,800
emptying yourself to go back to 
Jeremy Camp. 

609
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:40,000
Look at album called, T, his 
wife died of cancer and he wrote

610
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,500
this whole album of just 
Brokenness of crying out to God.

611
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,700
We got to the point of life, 
which is no longer about our 

612
00:43:45,700 --> 00:43:49,700
ability or inability, but as 
about his ability, amen. 

613
00:43:50,100 --> 00:43:52,600
And so we just follow God by 
faith. 

614
00:43:52,700 --> 00:43:55,100
There's nothing to do about you.
And then you're going to find, 

615
00:43:55,100 --> 00:43:57,700
there's enough of God in you, to
be the person that God has 

616
00:43:57,700 --> 00:44:00,400
called you to be. 
It's not your ability. 

617
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,700
And so it says this verse 9 by 
faith, this is Abraham. 

618
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,600
He made his home in the promised
land like a stranger and One 

619
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,500
country, he lived in tents as an
Isaac and Jacob who were heirs 

620
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:14,300
with him from the same of the 
same promise. 

621
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:15,700
I love this. 
That boy didn't even build 

622
00:44:15,700 --> 00:44:16,900
houses. 
Come on somebody. 

623
00:44:17,100 --> 00:44:18,600
I mean this world was so temper 
for him. 

624
00:44:18,700 --> 00:44:21,100
He has put a tent up. 
It was like well I'm just gonna 

625
00:44:21,100 --> 00:44:22,900
pass through. 
I'm not going to call this home.

626
00:44:22,900 --> 00:44:25,700
I'm not going to get too 
grounded or too concerned about 

627
00:44:25,700 --> 00:44:28,000
the things this world because 
I'm just passing through this 

628
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,700
foreign territory goes on the 
say. 

629
00:44:30,700 --> 00:44:33,500
This says for he was looking 
forward. 

630
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,600
I love this to the city with 
fountains whose architect Act 

631
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,400
and Builder is God. 
He knew he wasn't home until he 

632
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,800
saw those beautiful fountains 
and glory and the city that was 

633
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,700
built by Jesus. 
Whose architect was God. 

634
00:44:47,700 --> 00:44:50,200
He said, this is my home. 
Amen. 

635
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,100
And maybe the problem was so 
much of our culture and maybe 

636
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,500
cultural Christianity is that we
forgotten that this world is not

637
00:44:56,500 --> 00:44:59,600
our home. 
We are consumed about making 

638
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,500
this world so comfortable, they 
were forgotten the fact that 

639
00:45:02,500 --> 00:45:04,700
it's not called to be 
comfortable that we will later 

640
00:45:04,700 --> 00:45:08,500
head down one day in glory with 
amazing fountains and fruit from

641
00:45:08,500 --> 00:45:10,400
the tree. 
Come on somebody with those of 

642
00:45:10,408 --> 00:45:12,700
the love Jesus and family and 
friends. 

643
00:45:12,700 --> 00:45:15,100
And then we take a rest. 
But on this side of Eternity, we

644
00:45:15,107 --> 00:45:18,500
were called to live as 
foreigners in a Strange Land by 

645
00:45:18,500 --> 00:45:20,600
faith and by faith. 
Even Sarah. 

646
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:24,300
This is his wife who was past 
childbearing age, was in able to

647
00:45:24,300 --> 00:45:27,000
Bear children because she 
considered him a love this time 

648
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,800
of God. 
Faithful, who had made the 

649
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,400
promise, if you look at Jesus 
and he's calling to do 

650
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,200
something, he will, he will make
a way. 

651
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,000
Amen. 
Even we don't feel like you have

652
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:37,700
a way. 
It doesn't make sense. 

653
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:39,500
You don't have enough money. 
You're not prepared. 

654
00:45:39,500 --> 00:45:42,700
You don't have a plan. 
It's not, you don't feel like 

655
00:45:42,700 --> 00:45:47,300
you have the resourcing, you 
don't have enough in you, God 

656
00:45:47,300 --> 00:45:50,500
Will Make A Way every single 
time, because it's God, Amen. 

657
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,300
That's just what he does. 
And so from this one, man, 

658
00:45:54,300 --> 00:45:57,800
Abraham and he is good as dead 
in his old age. 

659
00:45:58,100 --> 00:46:00,400
Kim descendants. 
As numerous as the Stars the sky

660
00:46:00,500 --> 00:46:03,300
as countless as a sand of the 
seashore. 

661
00:46:03,500 --> 00:46:05,700
Now I know about this but 
Abraham died, had a nation, a 

662
00:46:05,700 --> 00:46:08,300
great nation, a huge nation of 
eight. 

663
00:46:08,300 --> 00:46:11,800
People come all somebody that 
was his nation and he lived he 

664
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,200
lived for a promise. 
He looks forward to the 

665
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,300
promised. 
My fact, it says this and this 

666
00:46:16,300 --> 00:46:17,600
is Tommy. 
All the people we talked about. 

667
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,900
It says, all these people we've 
mentioned, we're still living by

668
00:46:20,900 --> 00:46:23,300
faith. 
When they died did not receive 

669
00:46:23,300 --> 00:46:25,900
the things those promised they 
were looking forward to a 

670
00:46:25,908 --> 00:46:29,200
promise, looking out to a 
promise and Only saw them and 

671
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,000
welcomed them from a distance 
and this one who told themselves

672
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,900
admitting that they were 
foreigners and strangers on 

673
00:46:35,900 --> 00:46:37,900
Earth. 
And this is, this is where the 

674
00:46:37,900 --> 00:46:40,000
call the Christian we shouldn't 
fit in. 

675
00:46:40,100 --> 00:46:43,400
If your goal is to fit in, you 
will not live by faith and not 

676
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,700
the things of God in your life. 
You're going to fit in with your

677
00:46:45,700 --> 00:46:47,200
friends. 
You have the wrong goal. 

678
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,400
Amen. 
I mean, you're called to be the 

679
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,300
outcast. 
You're called to be the weirdo. 

680
00:46:51,300 --> 00:46:52,700
The Jesus freak. 
You called me. 

681
00:46:52,700 --> 00:46:54,500
The guy that just like, what's 
up with that guy? 

682
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,400
And it honestly is so 
attraction. 

683
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,000
We're going to talk about what 
faith Looks like and this side 

684
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,500
of Eternity. 
But and then the fact this isn't

685
00:47:01,500 --> 00:47:04,600
my home, people say such things,
they show that they're looking 

686
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,100
for a country of their own. 
If they had been looking 

687
00:47:07,100 --> 00:47:09,600
thinking of a country, they had 
left that have found the 

688
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:13,100
opportunity to return. 
It is so easy to tell somebody 

689
00:47:13,100 --> 00:47:14,900
who's going to go the distance 
and somebody's not because 

690
00:47:14,900 --> 00:47:16,300
they're always looking over 
their shoulder back and what 

691
00:47:16,300 --> 00:47:18,800
they used to have the New 
Testament says this, whoever 

692
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,400
puts her hands to the plow and 
looks back is not fit for the 

693
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,900
kingdom of God. 
I mean your hands can be here, 

694
00:47:24,900 --> 00:47:26,800
but if your hearts back they're 
going to find a way to go back, 

695
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,900
aren't you? 
We gotta move our heart from 

696
00:47:28,900 --> 00:47:32,000
here on Earth and move our heart
into heaven. 

697
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,100
Amen. 
But this is our desire Heaven 

698
00:47:35,100 --> 00:47:37,100
should be so close. 
I mean, I love that song 

699
00:47:37,100 --> 00:47:40,900
homesick, right? 
Like I want to go home but God 

700
00:47:40,900 --> 00:47:43,200
has me here but that's the heart
of a Christian. 

701
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:46,500
So I'm just going to gather as 
much for the kingdom of God and 

702
00:47:46,500 --> 00:47:48,600
live by faith the kingdom God 
and see what God will do for my 

703
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,300
life before I make it home. 
But this is not my home. 

704
00:47:51,300 --> 00:47:54,200
I don't put down the deeper, 
it's Amen, I'm a foreigner, I'm 

705
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,300
a soldier and I just I'm just 
walking through step-by-step 

706
00:47:57,300 --> 00:47:59,500
just going on, Okay, well that 
looks like the world but this 

707
00:47:59,500 --> 00:48:02,500
isn't my home. 
People say such things. 

708
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,500
The looking for the country of 
their own, I don't belong here. 

709
00:48:05,700 --> 00:48:08,500
I'm not going to get too 
comfortable instead their 

710
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:10,800
longing for a better country. 
There's something more out 

711
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,800
there, a Heavenly country. 
Therefore, God is not ashamed to

712
00:48:13,808 --> 00:48:17,000
be called their God for. 
He has prepared a city for them 

713
00:48:17,100 --> 00:48:18,800
in heaven. 
I want to forget about this city

714
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:19,700
of fountains. 
Amen. 

715
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,800
The city that architect of God 
has built for us. 

716
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:25,600
This is where our heart is at, 
amen. 

717
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:27,600
I mean you put your hope in 
here. 

718
00:48:27,700 --> 00:48:29,100
You're going to be sorely 
disappointed. 

719
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,300
Maybe the end game is heaven and
this is our home. 

720
00:48:32,300 --> 00:48:34,200
This is where we're moving to as
Christians. 

721
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,100
Have you been around a person of
great faith? 

722
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:40,300
If you've been around a person 
that just was like, wow, the 

723
00:48:40,300 --> 00:48:43,700
spirit of God is on that person 
and I don't know if you had that

724
00:48:43,700 --> 00:48:47,000
in your life, maybe you've seen 
it on TV or like a video or 

725
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,300
maybe the Bible study by 
somebody or read a book by 

726
00:48:49,300 --> 00:48:52,100
somebody, but you kind of get 
some picture of what a person of

727
00:48:52,107 --> 00:48:55,000
great faith. 
Looks like your sense that 

728
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,200
before that Spirit of God like 
it's anointing is on is on them.

729
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:01,700
The kind of people that like 
it's always the movement. 

730
00:49:01,700 --> 00:49:04,800
God is kind of Falls over they 
go but the God is speaking 

731
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,600
through them like a vessel like 
the tip of the spear like an 

732
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,200
arrow shot into the culture. 
Have you been around these kind 

733
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,700
of people like you know you 
think of people like that, 

734
00:49:12,700 --> 00:49:14,000
right? 
And I'm not going to make a 

735
00:49:14,008 --> 00:49:15,500
living because they still have 
room to fall. 

736
00:49:15,500 --> 00:49:16,700
That's what those are and say, 
right. 

737
00:49:17,100 --> 00:49:18,700
But you think like Billy Graham,
right? 

738
00:49:19,100 --> 00:49:24,200
Like this is just just moved a 
nation like the platform of like

739
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,900
a world scale to be used. 
By God, I think about men and 

740
00:49:27,900 --> 00:49:31,000
people in our church like a 
local scale, or like a family 

741
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,700
scale, you think about person 
your family's like me, and that 

742
00:49:32,700 --> 00:49:36,700
person they just bring up the 
level of spirituality, like this

743
00:49:36,700 --> 00:49:39,400
brings Jesus to our family. 
If it wasn't for that person, 

744
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,700
man, here's what, here's, I'll 
use this. 

745
00:49:41,700 --> 00:49:43,800
Grab those kind of people. 
I'm a word, you use to describe 

746
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:45,900
them and maybe you find this 
true for you. 

747
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,200
I've been around these people 
seeing him and like being the 

748
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:54,100
word, I think of is transcended.
These kind of people transcend 

749
00:49:54,100 --> 00:49:57,500
their culture. 
You know, they don't fit There's

750
00:49:57,500 --> 00:50:00,000
like what man. 
Like, how do you do that? 

751
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,200
Like I can't, I don't know 
Faith, but look how much 

752
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,100
sacrifice. 
Like, how did you come up with 

753
00:50:05,100 --> 00:50:06,700
that? 
Like how in the world? 

754
00:50:06,700 --> 00:50:09,800
You have the courage in the to 
step out? 

755
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,000
You look at those people, like 
they transcend, think about 

756
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:13,800
transcend, it means breaking the
limit. 

757
00:50:14,100 --> 00:50:18,900
It means Rising above and going 
beyond the range of the limits 

758
00:50:18,900 --> 00:50:21,500
to transcends. 
I mean, you think about people 

759
00:50:21,500 --> 00:50:23,700
in your life, if you've been 
around and seen those people. 

760
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:25,900
It's like band. 
That's a foreign person in our 

761
00:50:25,900 --> 00:50:26,500
family. 
Emily. 

762
00:50:26,900 --> 00:50:28,300
Maybe you should be the fourth 
person or family. 

763
00:50:28,300 --> 00:50:31,000
Men would be good thing to be 
the fourth person. 

764
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,500
Your family. 
Well, the foreign person our 

765
00:50:32,500 --> 00:50:35,300
church that transcending the 
church, the kind of people like 

766
00:50:35,300 --> 00:50:37,200
Jesus, that made Jesus show. 
But Sinners. 

767
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,000
What is thinners, do they do it?
Most churches doing they run, 

768
00:50:40,100 --> 00:50:41,700
they ran to Jesus. 
Amen. 

769
00:50:42,100 --> 00:50:44,500
He was a friend of sinners that 
boys, a life of the party, no 

770
00:50:44,500 --> 00:50:46,600
matter where he went. 
People went to him, he was 

771
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,700
trying to pray. 
He had a cut through the crowds 

772
00:50:48,700 --> 00:50:51,200
and goal behind some rocks in 
the mound just to be quiet. 

773
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,200
So you can pray to God. 
Hit Ali crowd was always 

774
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:56,800
pursuing him because he was so 
attraction, 'l to Well, amen. 

775
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,100
Amen. 
I mean, we think about our 

776
00:51:00,100 --> 00:51:02,700
lives. 
It's like a Maya transcended 

777
00:51:02,700 --> 00:51:05,400
person. 
Can I be the kind of person that

778
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:08,800
God's hand is all over. 
Shall be like person of faith 

779
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,800
that God's like, I'm picking 
that boy. 

780
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:12,600
Like, that person loves me and 
secret. 

781
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:16,000
He's worked, tails off behind 
the scenes, he's full of Faith. 

782
00:51:16,300 --> 00:51:19,200
He's the kind of person that 
trust me with a little. 

783
00:51:19,300 --> 00:51:21,300
And now I can give that person 
more. 

784
00:51:21,500 --> 00:51:24,700
They transcend people who 
changed Nations and changed 

785
00:51:24,700 --> 00:51:27,400
countries and just on there. 
The prey of their news about 

786
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,800
David and Daniel. 
These ancients we've all these 

787
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,800
stories that transcended the 
Enoch transcended to translate 

788
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,500
up to heaven. 
I mean, the Earth didn't deserve

789
00:51:36,500 --> 00:51:39,600
that kind of faith and that kind
of Heaven here on Earth. 

790
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,600
I just think God should help us 
to be transgender. 

791
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:42,900
People are generation. 
Amen. 

792
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,500
Amen. 
I'm usually that kind of people 

793
00:51:46,500 --> 00:51:49,800
for our children and be 
transcended for our nation. 

794
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,400
I mean transcended, their our 
workplace people should know. 

795
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:54,900
There's something different 
about that boy. 

796
00:51:54,900 --> 00:51:57,600
I can't put my finger on because
you can't put your finger on the

797
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,600
band of God. 
But you do realize they're not 

798
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,600
from here but there's something 
so much greater about that, man,

799
00:52:02,700 --> 00:52:06,300
or woman of Jesus and everybody 
should see where you go. 

800
00:52:06,300 --> 00:52:08,100
Should say, man, that person 
loves Jesus. 

801
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:09,900
And when you get closer to you, 
this is how, you know, 

802
00:52:09,900 --> 00:52:12,600
somebody's transcended. 
When you get closer to them, you

803
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,700
discover the heart of God. 
The kind of people when you sit 

804
00:52:15,700 --> 00:52:18,500
down with and you're like, wow, 
I feel like I just met a little 

805
00:52:18,500 --> 00:52:19,700
closer to Jesus. 
Today. 

806
00:52:20,100 --> 00:52:22,100
They're the kind of people you 
don't get closer to and go, guys

807
00:52:22,100 --> 00:52:23,900
are phony. 
Does it kind of people get 

808
00:52:23,900 --> 00:52:26,700
closer to me like, wow, how did 
you get where you're at today? 

809
00:52:26,700 --> 00:52:29,000
How did, how did God move in 
your heart to get that level? 

810
00:52:29,100 --> 00:52:31,100
And they're going to say the 
same thing to say today by 

811
00:52:31,100 --> 00:52:31,800
faith. 
Amen! 

812
00:52:32,500 --> 00:52:34,700
By Faith, by faith. 
It's not them. 

813
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:40,400
It's God, Hebrews 11:17 by faith
Abraham when God tested him 

814
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,700
offered Isaac. 
This is his son as a sacrifice. 

815
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:49,100
Who he who had one who had 
embraced the promises. 

816
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,300
This is Abraham embrace the 
promise of the of God in his 

817
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:54,700
life. 
He had deep conviction. 

818
00:52:54,700 --> 00:52:57,300
He was full sinned. 
As Diane says, all times a team 

819
00:52:57,300 --> 00:52:58,700
full sin. 
There was nothing happened, 

820
00:52:58,700 --> 00:53:03,500
Alden for Jesus, was able was 
about to sacrifice his one and 

821
00:53:03,500 --> 00:53:08,400
only son, even though God had 
said to him it is through Isaac 

822
00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:11,300
that your Offspring will be 
reckoned. 

823
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,200
I mean think about this, you 
know the story. 

824
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:14,500
If you don't know it you got to 
look it up. 

825
00:53:14,700 --> 00:53:18,600
You have Abraham who's really 
raising the knife to sacrifice 

826
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,900
his own son on the altar in 
place of another sacrifice 

827
00:53:21,900 --> 00:53:24,600
because God said, hey, take your
son up to sacrifice him because 

828
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:27,300
Isaac it almost become like an 
idol to Abraham. 

829
00:53:27,300 --> 00:53:30,600
He was testing Abraham to see 
his faith and so he gets up 

830
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:34,100
there and he raises the knife up
willing to kill his son, who God

831
00:53:34,100 --> 00:53:36,700
told him the air of your 
generations and your legacy your

832
00:53:36,700 --> 00:53:39,900
nation is going to be killed. 
It made no sense. 

833
00:53:39,900 --> 00:53:41,600
It doesn't make any rational 
sense. 

834
00:53:41,900 --> 00:53:45,600
Does it make any sense? 
But Abraham, he Stood God, he 

835
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,900
had faith in God. 
That God would somehow make 

836
00:53:47,900 --> 00:53:51,000
away. 
Love what happens here, Abraham 

837
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,200
reasons. 
And this is the type of reason 

838
00:53:53,300 --> 00:53:57,000
that doesn't exist in 2023 and 
our education doesn't exist, our

839
00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,300
nation and doesn't exist 
anywhere. 

840
00:53:59,500 --> 00:54:02,400
Besides the people of God who 
know that the word of God and 

841
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,600
people are faithful to God, 
Abraham reasoned with faith. 

842
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,500
He said that if God could even 
raise the dead and even at mayor

843
00:54:08,500 --> 00:54:12,800
speaking, he even did receive 
Isaac back from Death, Abraham 

844
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:14,500
believed so much that he just 
stabbed eyes. 

845
00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,000
Can I shake down the altar? 
That the only way this never 

846
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,200
work out is that God has raised 
him from the dead, his so much 

847
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:21,800
faith. 
That if I killed my own son, 

848
00:54:22,100 --> 00:54:23,400
that got to bring it back to 
life. 

849
00:54:23,700 --> 00:54:26,800
It's always going to work out 
and I think in this generation 

850
00:54:26,900 --> 00:54:28,400
we've got to add Faith back in 
the equation. 

851
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:32,000
Amen, we gotta add Faith back 
into our reason. 

852
00:54:32,100 --> 00:54:34,100
It's not unreasonable. 
It is actually the only thing 

853
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:36,100
that is reasonable. 
It takes more faith to be an 

854
00:54:36,100 --> 00:54:37,800
atheist. 
It takes more faith to be a 

855
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:40,300
secular humanist. 
It takes more faith to wander 

856
00:54:40,300 --> 00:54:42,500
apart from God. 
It takes more faith to do all 

857
00:54:42,508 --> 00:54:45,000
those things. 
Then the trust God, and To serve

858
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:45,800
God. 
Amen. 

859
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:51,900
Something like step on my toes. 
Look, the promises of God are so

860
00:54:51,900 --> 00:54:54,900
true. 
If he died racism a life, John 

861
00:54:54,900 --> 00:54:57,300
3:16 for God. 
So loved the world that he gave 

862
00:54:57,300 --> 00:55:02,600
his only son one and only son 
KJV gave His only begotten son, 

863
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:04,800
that reference actually refers 
back to. 

864
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,800
This is the only time you see in
the Bible, the one only son be 

865
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:10,400
sacrificed if God can raise him 
from the dead. 

866
00:55:10,500 --> 00:55:13,400
So just promise is always true. 
It's gospel. 

867
00:55:13,500 --> 00:55:15,500
Truth by faith. 
Isaac blessed. 

868
00:55:15,500 --> 00:55:17,100
Jacob. 
And Esau in regards to the 

869
00:55:17,100 --> 00:55:20,200
Future by faith, Jacob, when he 
was dying. 

870
00:55:20,300 --> 00:55:23,400
Each of Joseph's sons and 
worshiped as he leaned on top of

871
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:27,100
his staff by faith Joseph when 
his when his end was near spoke 

872
00:55:27,100 --> 00:55:29,400
about the Exodus of the 
Israelites from Egypt and gave 

873
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:33,000
instructions concerning the 
barrel of his bones by faith. 

874
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,500
Moses has parents mom and dad, 
you don't see that in the 

875
00:55:36,500 --> 00:55:39,200
picture on the wall of the Ark, 
you know, the the drawings. 

876
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,300
But Mom and Dad hid him for 
three months after his born, 

877
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:43,800
instead of having him killed 
tossin. 

878
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:47,400
So now they hit him because they
saw, he was no ordinary child. 

879
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:48,900
And they were what hell? 
No. 

880
00:55:48,900 --> 00:55:51,900
They were not. 
They're not afraid of the king's

881
00:55:51,900 --> 00:55:53,300
edict. 
I'm gonna let you know. 

882
00:55:53,300 --> 00:55:56,900
Today, we aren't the first 
generation that to pick from the

883
00:55:56,900 --> 00:56:00,000
faith in God, or fear of a king 
or culture. 

884
00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,800
We're not the first generation 
of parents that have to 

885
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,900
fearlessly, protect our kids 
from the things of a king or a 

886
00:56:05,908 --> 00:56:07,500
kingdom of a culture. 
Amen. 

887
00:56:08,100 --> 00:56:10,500
We're not the first generation 
after to push up hill. 

888
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:13,200
Now, the first generation that's
misunderstood, it has to do 

889
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,200
things in secret and had to 
fight the good fight of faith 

890
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,000
and have to War for the things 
of God. 

891
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,300
Whatever else is going left and 
said, no, no, I'm going to do. 

892
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:24,100
Going to do it the gods way. 
I'm going to fear God, not man. 

893
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:28,000
And look at this by faith, Moses
because his parents had faith in

894
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,600
God. 
Here's Moses, it's amazing Moses

895
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:34,300
when he'd grown up because he 
had a chance at life because 

896
00:56:34,300 --> 00:56:37,500
they feared God, I love looking 
his words. 

897
00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:40,500
Refused to be known as the son 
of Pharaoh's daughter. 

898
00:56:40,500 --> 00:56:43,700
He refused it. 
He said no, thanks not for me. 

899
00:56:43,900 --> 00:56:47,000
He chose to be mistreated along 
with the people of God, rather 

900
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,200
than enjoy the fleeting 
pleasures of sin. 

901
00:56:49,500 --> 00:56:53,200
He chose He refused to be 
counted as a household of 

902
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:58,000
pharaoh and then he chose to be 
identified as a Hebrew and to 

903
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,300
follow the God of all gods and 
never forgot where he came from.

904
00:57:00,300 --> 00:57:03,100
Amen. 
He just chose to take to walk 

905
00:57:03,100 --> 00:57:05,900
away from all these things. 
We have fortune and fame and 

906
00:57:05,900 --> 00:57:07,900
money. 
All these things, the fleeting 

907
00:57:07,900 --> 00:57:10,300
pleasures of sin and says, verse
26. 

908
00:57:10,300 --> 00:57:15,700
He regarded disgrace for the 
sake of Christ as greater value 

909
00:57:15,900 --> 00:57:20,000
than the treasures of Egypt, 
because he was looking ahead to 

910
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:24,700
his Reward. 
He, he'd rather not sell out to 

911
00:57:24,700 --> 00:57:28,300
the Egyptian dream. 
Here are not be comfortable, he 

912
00:57:28,300 --> 00:57:30,500
really not. 
Just go with the flow and fit in

913
00:57:30,500 --> 00:57:33,200
his little good health, a fun 
life up in the palace and do 

914
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:34,700
what he wants to do. 
No, no, he's real. 

915
00:57:34,700 --> 00:57:38,000
He's identified with God, Amen. 
This is, what baptism is? 

916
00:57:38,500 --> 00:57:40,700
I mean, you're literally saying,
hey, I'm in for Jesus, I don't 

917
00:57:40,700 --> 00:57:43,200
know what's gonna cost me, but I
don't care because I know what 

918
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:46,300
God is already giving me another
award that said heaven for me, 

919
00:57:46,300 --> 00:57:48,500
I'm just going to follow God, I 
won't be on his side. 

920
00:57:48,500 --> 00:57:50,000
I don't know, if you'll play 
dodgeball, what side of the 

921
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:50,500
fence? 
You're on your own? 

922
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:52,100
I'm going to go with Jesus. 
Amen. 

923
00:57:52,300 --> 00:57:54,200
I know what kind of games you 
like to play, but there's not a 

924
00:57:54,207 --> 00:57:56,400
game with God. 
So I'm going to go on God's side

925
00:57:56,500 --> 00:57:59,300
and God Honors that see Moses. 
No, that's what his home. 

926
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:01,400
He didn't sell out by faith. 
He left. 

927
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:05,000
Egypt. 
Not fearing the Kings anger. 

928
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,300
Come on somebody. 
I'm somewhat were so motivated 

929
00:58:08,300 --> 00:58:11,500
about fear but the three at 
regards is we got a fear, the 

930
00:58:11,500 --> 00:58:14,600
one who's worthy to be feared, 
not the person that can kill the

931
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:18,700
body, but the the God of all 
gods that can kill the body and 

932
00:58:18,700 --> 00:58:23,900
the Soul, right? 
We have a healthy reverence of 

933
00:58:23,900 --> 00:58:26,000
God is the beginning of all 
wisdom. 

934
00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,800
And so we make a choice. 
It's like which direction to go,

935
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:29,200
which we got. 
Hey, I'm going to follow the 

936
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,400
direction of God and he 
persevered because you saw that 

937
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:35,100
he was invisible course. 
He got a burning bush that helps

938
00:58:35,100 --> 00:58:36,700
a little bit. 
Come on somebody, right. 

939
00:58:37,900 --> 00:58:39,700
But it wouldn't matter. 
People can see a burning bush, 

940
00:58:39,700 --> 00:58:42,700
they can be Jesus, they still 
crucified him by faith. 

941
00:58:42,700 --> 00:58:44,800
He kept the Passover, an 
application, the blood on the 

942
00:58:44,808 --> 00:58:46,300
lintel. 
So that the story of the 

943
00:58:46,308 --> 00:58:48,300
firstborn would not touch the 
firstborn of Israel. 

944
00:58:48,700 --> 00:58:51,400
And by faith, the people pass 
through the Red Sea as on dry 

945
00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:53,900
land, but when the Egyptians 
tried to do so they were 

946
00:58:53,900 --> 00:58:56,000
drowned. 
I want you to notice so far in 

947
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,200
this whole passes of Hebrews 
chapter 11, what didn't happen, 

948
00:58:59,900 --> 00:59:02,900
what did they do? 
It wasn't by intelligence. 

949
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,000
Come on somebody. 
It wasn't by higher secondary, 

950
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,700
or higher education or the Agree
or PhD. 

951
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,100
It wasn't because their ability 
it was because of hard work. 

952
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,000
It wasn't because they were 
qualified. 

953
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:17,900
It wasn't because they're 
successful or famous or popular 

954
00:59:18,100 --> 00:59:20,200
it wasn't because they're trying
to make people happy. 

955
00:59:20,300 --> 00:59:22,300
Amen. 
It wasn't because they're trying

956
00:59:22,300 --> 00:59:24,800
to boost up the culture and be 
in the Limelight. 

957
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:26,700
It wasn't because they're trying
to keep their friends. 

958
00:59:26,900 --> 00:59:29,300
It wasn't because they were 
fully resource for the vision. 

959
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,800
Amen. 
Somebody got a big Vision on how

960
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:33,500
to get their God will figure it 
out. 

961
00:59:33,700 --> 00:59:36,100
You just be faithful, right? 
It wasn't because their top of 

962
00:59:36,100 --> 00:59:39,000
their class and it wasn't 
because they're fully prepared. 

963
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:40,900
If you're waiting for prepared, 
you've missed the entire 

964
00:59:40,900 --> 00:59:44,800
opportunity, amen. 
You're missing it, you got to go

965
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:46,800
now. 
Like there's a mission. 

966
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:50,100
It's Uncharted, you know, we put
people on the moon with 

967
00:59:50,100 --> 00:59:52,500
intelligence, not even a 
microwave today. 

968
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:58,200
Come on somebody, right? 
We just find a way to push into 

969
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:01,200
the kingdom of God, by faith. 
The battles are won and fought 

970
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,600
by God from our knees. 
Junior, open the Bible. 

971
01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:05,700
It's always interesting because,
you know, when people open the 

972
01:00:05,700 --> 01:00:08,400
Bible because it seems to be 
like a kind of Rarity for most 

973
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,600
people, but they opened the 
Bible is like me and God showed 

974
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,400
me something. 
And so his flipped it open and 

975
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:14,300
God Start speaking here. 
Notice that in your life, you 

976
01:00:14,308 --> 01:00:17,000
can flip to any part of the 
Bible and God speaks to you even

977
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,300
Leviticus. 
Come on, somebody like something

978
01:00:19,300 --> 01:00:21,600
just Man. 
Okay, God spoke to me, maybe a 

979
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,400
little struggle, right? 
But God speaks to, you is so 

980
01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:25,200
happens. 
So many times. 

981
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,300
And, you know, if you crack the 
Bible open, he's probably trying

982
01:00:27,300 --> 01:00:28,600
to solve, right? 
It's just Brad, the middle of 

983
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,900
the spine, you know, Joe main 
guys are speaking, right, but 

984
01:00:31,900 --> 01:00:34,600
here's the reality, as 
Christians see, most people 

985
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:37,800
like, pick a book, but as 
Christians, the book picked us. 

986
01:00:37,900 --> 01:00:40,600
Amen. 
It's a Living Word. 

987
01:00:40,700 --> 01:00:44,200
And as you all know the word you
want, Jesus is called the word 

988
01:00:44,300 --> 01:00:47,000
just opened the Bible and 
started the word speak into your

989
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:48,800
life. 
And so you get alone with God 

990
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,200
and say, okay, God, what you 
want me to do and those secret 

991
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:54,200
dark moments when nobody's 
around, that's your faith is 

992
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,500
built. 
A men like on the right here. 

993
01:00:56,500 --> 01:00:58,700
This is, this is just like a 
spur on Moment. 

994
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:00,400
Like, This isn't a 
faith-building moment. 

995
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,000
You got to get face to face with
Jesus. 

996
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:04,800
Amen. 
Like that's your responsibility.

997
01:01:04,900 --> 01:01:08,900
That's your part to play and God
is willing to use you as a 

998
01:01:08,908 --> 01:01:12,200
transcended person of great 
faith in your family, in your 

999
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,300
culture. 
If you are willing to fall 

1000
01:01:14,300 --> 01:01:17,400
deeply in desperately, in love 
with Jesus. 

1001
01:01:19,500 --> 01:01:23,700
We live by faith, not by sight. 
He was 11:30 says, this by 

1002
01:01:23,700 --> 01:01:25,800
faith, the walls of Jericho fell
after armies. 

1003
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:28,400
Had marched around them for 
seven days immigrant trumpet. 

1004
01:01:28,900 --> 01:01:33,000
Come on somebody, right? 
Just like Katie to the ground 

1005
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,800
right by faith. 
Look at this, I love this The 

1006
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,800
Prostitute Rahab because she 
welcomed the spies was not 

1007
01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:42,500
killed. 
And those who were in or with 

1008
01:01:42,500 --> 01:01:45,500
those who are disobedient. 
I love that women made and Hall 

1009
01:01:45,500 --> 01:01:47,900
of Fame and Faith. 
Amen, there is great. 

1010
01:01:47,900 --> 01:01:49,200
Women of Faith. 
I can't tell. 

1011
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,600
People, I talked to it's like my
grandma showed me Jesus. 

1012
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:54,200
My grandma brought me to church.
My grandma pulled me to Christ. 

1013
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,100
That is so many people's 
stories. 

1014
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:58,400
And here you have recognized 
like there's when the faith all 

1015
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,500
throughout history, all 
throughout the Bible, but even 

1016
01:02:00,700 --> 01:02:04,100
cooler than that, in the story 
of a prostitute, you have an 

1017
01:02:04,100 --> 01:02:07,900
ordinary or maybe less than 
order is people consider a 

1018
01:02:07,900 --> 01:02:16,900
broken empty, maybe leftover 
just Every day people. 

1019
01:02:16,900 --> 01:02:19,600
Come on, somebody. 
Nothing special. 

1020
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:25,000
And God uses her. 
Her faith to do extraordinary 

1021
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:26,600
things for God. 
Amen. 

1022
01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:29,500
And so if you're looking around 
like a man, but if you do my 

1023
01:02:29,500 --> 01:02:33,300
past I don't I personally don't 
need no your pass to know Jesus 

1024
01:02:33,300 --> 01:02:34,900
who forgave your past? 
Amen. 

1025
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,500
And so we got stop looking in 
the rearview mirror and being 

1026
01:02:37,500 --> 01:02:39,600
held on by this anchor. 
Oh, look what happened in my 

1027
01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,000
life? 
It's like glory to God because 

1028
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,600
what much is much as much as 
forgiving. 

1029
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:47,500
Then much is required. 
Amen. 

1030
01:02:47,900 --> 01:02:50,300
And so you can just go like, 
well, me and God just took down 

1031
01:02:50,300 --> 01:02:52,300
that big anchor. 
Praise God. 

1032
01:02:52,300 --> 01:02:54,400
Hallelujah. 
Ooh, I've got a story to tell 

1033
01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,500
and so you guys are blessed with
the ability to share your story.

1034
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:01,800
I once was a sinner, but God 
saved me. 

1035
01:03:02,300 --> 01:03:05,800
I once was blind, but now I see.
Amen. 

1036
01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,500
And look at, look at Rahab and 
her story, it's like, man, if 

1037
01:03:09,500 --> 01:03:13,400
God can use her, by the way, so 
far down the list, you've had a 

1038
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:15,600
murderer. 
You had people sleep with her, 

1039
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:18,600
Daughters, you have a drunkards,
you've had an another person who

1040
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,300
was killed by somebody. 
I mean, just if you don't know 

1041
01:03:21,300 --> 01:03:24,200
the Bible, I'm sorry because it 
is so real. 

1042
01:03:24,300 --> 01:03:26,300
Nobody, can nobody write this. 
If they're writing this, they 

1043
01:03:26,300 --> 01:03:28,100
don't. 
Okay, people are history, they 

1044
01:03:28,100 --> 01:03:30,000
cut out all that stuff in their 
family right? 

1045
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,600
Come on is the perfect family 
right just like that picture. 

1046
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,400
You just retake the picture. 
They just write how they want to

1047
01:03:34,408 --> 01:03:37,200
ride it but this is the real 
deal and so we can have faith in

1048
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:38,600
God. 
Just ordinary people do 

1049
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,400
extraordinary things for God. 
The key greeting is simply this 

1050
01:03:41,500 --> 01:03:44,000
by Faith by faith. 
I'm gonna tell you what. 

1051
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:45,600
Faith looks like your life and 
found in Titus. 

1052
01:03:45,700 --> 01:03:48,500
Chapter 3 verse 4 through 7, and
this is the gospel. 

1053
01:03:48,500 --> 01:03:50,600
This is one of the greatest 
presentations of the Gospel. 

1054
01:03:50,900 --> 01:03:54,200
This is Paul speaking to your 
Protege like build them up, 

1055
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:55,700
right? 
It says this but when the 

1056
01:03:55,700 --> 01:04:00,000
kindness and love of God, our 
savior appeared he saved us. 

1057
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:03,500
Now, don't forget this. 
This is it not because of 

1058
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:08,400
righteous things, we had done, 
you know, you're forgiven, not 

1059
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,900
because that you are a good 
person you know you're not 

1060
01:04:11,900 --> 01:04:14,600
forgiven because you measure up.
You're not forgiven because 

1061
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,000
you're perfect. 
I've been giving it forgive me 

1062
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,800
because you went to church and 
you read your Bible like the 

1063
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:21,600
thief on the cross. 
He did nothing righteous, he 

1064
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:24,200
probably never prayed before a 
meal, you probably know the name

1065
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:28,100
of God, and for just, but God's 
Divine Providence, he is hanging

1066
01:04:28,100 --> 01:04:29,700
across next Tuesday, I'll see 
you in Paradise. 

1067
01:04:29,700 --> 01:04:32,600
He says, you're forgiven, you're
forgiven by this, look what it 

1068
01:04:32,607 --> 01:04:34,600
says now because of righteous 
things, you've done. 

1069
01:04:34,900 --> 01:04:40,200
But because of his Mercy, his 
Mercy, his Mercy. 

1070
01:04:40,300 --> 01:04:43,000
Mercy is when somebody shows up 
and they steal your truck, and 

1071
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,200
then you hit you hand him. 
The next Keys, the next car. 

1072
01:04:45,700 --> 01:04:48,500
That's that's Mercy right. 
That Justice is when somebody 

1073
01:04:48,500 --> 01:04:50,700
steals your truck you just you 
take them out back you know I'm 

1074
01:04:50,700 --> 01:04:54,300
saying that's Justice Mercy is 
like oh you want the car o have 

1075
01:04:54,300 --> 01:04:58,900
this car too right and the grace
of God is like oh hey don't 

1076
01:04:58,900 --> 01:05:01,400
worry. 
It's forgiving, you can have all

1077
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:05,700
this but just freely given no 
strings attached, Jesus on the 

1078
01:05:05,700 --> 01:05:07,800
seat, taking the execution for 
us. 

1079
01:05:07,900 --> 01:05:11,200
He takes her penalty or payment 
for our sin but because of his 

1080
01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:16,100
Mercy, he saved us through the 
washing of rebirth and the All 

1081
01:05:16,300 --> 01:05:19,100
by the Holy Spirit whom he 
poured out on us. 

1082
01:05:19,100 --> 01:05:23,400
Help me out how us generously 
generously. 

1083
01:05:23,500 --> 01:05:25,900
Do you know you get a full dose 
of the Holy Spirit when you came

1084
01:05:25,900 --> 01:05:29,100
to Christ and it wasn't because 
anything you did, what whether 

1085
01:05:29,100 --> 01:05:31,800
you killed people, you sold 
drugs with your complete 

1086
01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:34,100
lunatic, whether you treat you 
like trash, whether you 

1087
01:05:34,100 --> 01:05:36,600
personally let out of the 
divorce and it's all your fault.

1088
01:05:36,700 --> 01:05:38,800
Where the person who did all 
this other stuff, it does not 

1089
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:41,300
matter whatsoever. 
When you came to Christ he gave 

1090
01:05:41,300 --> 01:05:43,100
you the full dose. 
Matter fact, he didn't take a 

1091
01:05:43,107 --> 01:05:45,400
little eyedropper of the Holy 
Spirit and Go Peep. 

1092
01:05:45,700 --> 01:05:48,900
And when you grow a little more 
peep like you little bleep. 

1093
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:50,800
No, no. 
He gave you the full dose of the

1094
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:53,500
Holy Spirit. 
He generously gave it to you. 

1095
01:05:53,500 --> 01:05:55,100
This was not to support that bag
of chips. 

1096
01:05:55,100 --> 01:05:56,500
Come on somebody. 
Right? 

1097
01:05:56,500 --> 01:05:58,200
You know, so it gets smaller 
every day. 

1098
01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,400
It's like what in the world? 
This is the full bag of Jesus. 

1099
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,300
Amen. 
So I'm telling you this is you 

1100
01:06:03,300 --> 01:06:06,700
have all it takes inside of you 
through the Holy Spirit to be 

1101
01:06:06,700 --> 01:06:10,300
Transcendent in our culture. 
Amen. 

1102
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:13,600
Amen. 
Jesus is the Christ Jesus. 

1103
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:17,800
Our savior not you Christ in You
haven't been Justified declared 

1104
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:20,500
righteous by grace that we might
become heirs having hope of 

1105
01:06:20,500 --> 01:06:25,000
eternal life, it's lacrosse that
qualifies you to break the 

1106
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:31,000
limits and we should by faith 
here, 11:32 and what, what more 

1107
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:33,400
should I say? 
I do not have time, which I 

1108
01:06:33,408 --> 01:06:36,800
don't, but I don't have time to 
tell you about Gideon and Barak 

1109
01:06:36,900 --> 01:06:39,200
and Samson in jephthah. 
Now, if you don't know about 

1110
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,300
Jessica ago, judge 11, been 
amazing story. 

1111
01:06:41,300 --> 01:06:44,400
This guy's like a wild Warrior 
kind of like Elijah kind of, 

1112
01:06:44,408 --> 01:06:48,000
dude, it's amazing. 
Of David and Samuel the prophets

1113
01:06:48,300 --> 01:06:51,100
in through faith, look what 
happens through faith. 

1114
01:06:51,100 --> 01:06:53,600
This is amazing. 
They conquered kingdoms 

1115
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:57,100
administer Justice gained. 
What was promised? 

1116
01:06:57,100 --> 01:07:00,200
And we talked about this and 
shut the mouths of lions. 

1117
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:02,800
Amen. 
They quench the fury of flames 

1118
01:07:02,900 --> 01:07:04,800
escaped. 
The edge of the sword and whose 

1119
01:07:04,900 --> 01:07:08,800
weakness was turned to strength.
It wasn't about their ability, 

1120
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,200
it was about their inability 
God, used their weakness and he 

1121
01:07:11,207 --> 01:07:13,700
became strong. 
It says this, that they became 

1122
01:07:13,700 --> 01:07:15,500
powerful and battle rather 
Foreigner. 

1123
01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:18,000
When the received back through 
dead raised to life. 

1124
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:21,100
Again, there were others who 
were tortured refusing to be 

1125
01:07:21,100 --> 01:07:23,100
released that they may gain and 
even better. 

1126
01:07:23,100 --> 01:07:25,200
Resurrection. 
They say I'd rather die for 

1127
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,400
Christ and denounce Christ. 
So I guess you have to take me 

1128
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:29,700
out. 
There's so many Martyrs that 

1129
01:07:29,700 --> 01:07:31,400
say, you know what? 
That's where my house was sort 

1130
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:32,900
of lure. 
This we're going to do and they 

1131
01:07:32,900 --> 01:07:35,400
died a death because it rather 
just sit there. 

1132
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,800
Say I'm a Christian and some 
facial cheers, which is mockings

1133
01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:40,900
and flogging and even chains and
imprisonment. 

1134
01:07:40,900 --> 01:07:43,900
And they were put to death by 
stoning and they were sold into 

1135
01:07:43,900 --> 01:07:46,400
two and they're killed by The 
Sword and the They went about in

1136
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,600
sheepskins and goatskins being 
destitute persecuted. 

1137
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:53,000
In mistreated verse 38, probably
most powerful phrase. 

1138
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:57,800
The entire chapter 11 says us 
that the world was not worthy. 

1139
01:07:58,500 --> 01:08:00,800
Come on somebody. 
Let me that might be the 

1140
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:04,000
greatest definition of Faith. 
Somebody who lives in such a way

1141
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:09,700
that the world was not worthy of
their walk by faith, not by 

1142
01:08:09,700 --> 01:08:12,500
sight. 
Really, by faith. 

1143
01:08:12,500 --> 01:08:15,100
Push it into a generation like 
leaving the way. 

1144
01:08:15,100 --> 01:08:18,600
They don't make any sense to me,
but I have to put my faith, you 

1145
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:20,000
know, God called me to launch a 
church. 

1146
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:22,500
Okay, my faith launch the 
church. 

1147
01:08:22,500 --> 01:08:24,100
Is it going to work out? 
I've no idea. 

1148
01:08:24,100 --> 01:08:27,200
Come on somebody. 
You know I mean he's like he's 

1149
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:29,399
got to do it. 
I don't know if you don't do it 

1150
01:08:29,399 --> 01:08:30,399
we're going to move somewhere 
else, right? 

1151
01:08:30,399 --> 01:08:33,600
We're just keep moving forward 
and thank God, try to go to Asia

1152
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:34,500
as well. 
That's not going to work out 

1153
01:08:34,508 --> 01:08:35,899
this way. 
Just by faith, it's a 

1154
01:08:35,899 --> 01:08:37,200
generation. 
It steps up. 

1155
01:08:38,700 --> 01:08:40,899
I mean how much faith on the 
scale that we have right? 

1156
01:08:41,899 --> 01:08:45,800
Let me know you marked by faith 
or Humana William of Faith. 

1157
01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:48,899
These people they honored God in
the darkest days. 

1158
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:53,399
They're persecuted in the 
darkness, they're outcasts, they

1159
01:08:53,399 --> 01:08:55,700
were killed. 
They set such an example, the 

1160
01:08:55,700 --> 01:08:58,500
presence of God, the world 
didn't deserve such men and 

1161
01:08:58,500 --> 01:09:00,500
women. 
I think about these men and we 

1162
01:09:00,500 --> 01:09:03,899
talk about Enoch little bit that
these what it means to be you to

1163
01:09:03,899 --> 01:09:06,000
be not worth the world out. 
There were these kind of people,

1164
01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:09,800
it's a lemon zest. 
There are So Much Heaven in them

1165
01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,399
that the world to deserve their 
walk on earth. 

1166
01:09:12,399 --> 01:09:15,800
He came aggen being so much like
Jesus. 

1167
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:18,700
That God just says the world 
isn't worthy of you. 

1168
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,100
I mean, I want to go through 
that tunnel and having you know 

1169
01:09:21,100 --> 01:09:23,800
like one of the well, the 
archway is right, where the 

1170
01:09:23,808 --> 01:09:25,600
gates. 
These be like just pray to 

1171
01:09:25,608 --> 01:09:29,700
people go man. 
You want those wants the God 

1172
01:09:29,700 --> 01:09:32,000
just called you home because the
world wasn't worthy of your 

1173
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:34,899
walk. 
Amen, you changes in duration, 

1174
01:09:34,899 --> 01:09:37,500
you change the community, he 
laid out. 

1175
01:09:37,500 --> 01:09:40,399
Out there and you're the blood 
of your life. 

1176
01:09:40,500 --> 01:09:43,100
What you did lives on Beyond you
because you can't silence the 

1177
01:09:43,100 --> 01:09:44,200
work of God. 
Amen. 

1178
01:09:45,100 --> 01:09:48,399
This is what God is calling us 
to do and we can rise up. 

1179
01:09:48,700 --> 01:09:50,600
Why Can't We Be The Chariot of 
fire generation? 

1180
01:09:50,899 --> 01:09:55,000
What is stopping us from? 
Pushing that direction who can 

1181
01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:56,600
stop the work of God. 
Amen. 

1182
01:09:58,500 --> 01:10:04,300
Just us just ourselves. 
If God is willing, we move, we 

1183
01:10:04,300 --> 01:10:07,200
push we transcend in our 
culture. 

1184
01:10:07,700 --> 01:10:10,100
Verse 38 says, they wandered in 
deserts and mountains, live in 

1185
01:10:10,100 --> 01:10:12,900
caves and holes in the ground. 
They're all commended their 

1186
01:10:12,900 --> 01:10:15,700
clotted for their faith. 
Yeah. 

1187
01:10:15,700 --> 01:10:17,800
None of them received. 
What they've been promised last 

1188
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:21,300
verse of chapter 11 since God 
had planned? 

1189
01:10:21,300 --> 01:10:23,200
God had a purpose and all of 
this pain. 

1190
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:26,000
All the things was happening. 
Got in playing something better.

1191
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,500
There we come. 
The Picture for us. 

1192
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,200
These people didn't live through
the promise, they're still 

1193
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,900
looking forward to it and they 
the will was worthy what they 

1194
01:10:33,900 --> 01:10:36,400
did there fighting for the 
things of God, but never 

1195
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:40,400
received it because of us. 
Now, we enter the picture. 

1196
01:10:40,700 --> 01:10:45,300
So that only together with us, 
these ancients of Faith would be

1197
01:10:45,300 --> 01:10:48,900
made perfect with. 
This is simply saying, is this 

1198
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,300
not Kingdom? 
We talked about that, that city 

1199
01:10:51,300 --> 01:10:54,500
of fountains member and 
architecture was God and the 

1200
01:10:54,500 --> 01:10:57,100
Builder, was God? 
Why hasn't that come yet? 

1201
01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:00,300
Why are we in the city of 
fountains? 

1202
01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:04,600
What, why are we there yet? 
And the simple answer is this 

1203
01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:08,000
because God wants us. 
Amen. 

1204
01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:14,300
He wants us, he is patiently 
enduring all this in all the 

1205
01:11:14,300 --> 01:11:18,700
chaos, all the Brokenness, all 
the things so that we could know

1206
01:11:18,700 --> 01:11:22,200
him and together with these 
ancient of faith, we get to 

1207
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:26,000
fulfill the promise, same in the
God wants us to know him. 

1208
01:11:26,100 --> 01:11:27,500
Think of second Peter 3. 
Nine. 

1209
01:11:27,500 --> 01:11:30,400
This is put this in your heart, 
in your mind. 

1210
01:11:30,900 --> 01:11:33,700
It says this, the Lord is not 
slow, in keeping his promise as 

1211
01:11:33,700 --> 01:11:36,800
some understand slowness. 
Instead, he is patient with you 

1212
01:11:36,900 --> 01:11:39,700
not wanting anyone to perish, 
but everyone to come to 

1213
01:11:39,900 --> 01:11:42,300
repentance. 
What is simply saying, is this, 

1214
01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:43,900
is that everything up to this 
point? 

1215
01:11:43,900 --> 01:11:47,300
Every moment in time is created 
for this exact moment for you to

1216
01:11:47,300 --> 01:11:48,900
know Jesus. 
Amen. 

1217
01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:52,000
Everything is pointed to this 
right now. 

1218
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:57,600
This intersection for you to 
know God to tippity part of the 

1219
01:11:57,608 --> 01:12:01,900
story of God, either comes a day
when you don't need Faith. 

1220
01:12:02,900 --> 01:12:04,400
There comes a day when your 
faith becomes side. 

1221
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:08,800
Amen, we need to put your hands 
and put your head into the found

1222
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:10,300
of God's. 
Come on, somebody. 

1223
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:13,400
You to walk on the streets of 
gold where you don't have oil 

1224
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:15,400
slicks because your car breaks 
down, come on. 

1225
01:12:15,500 --> 01:12:18,600
You don't change flat tires and 
Heaven into the centerpiece is 

1226
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:22,400
Jesus and you fall before God, 
and you just dry out and 

1227
01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:24,300
thankful heart broken before 
him. 

1228
01:12:24,300 --> 01:12:26,100
Thank you, Jesus. 
Thank you. 

1229
01:12:26,100 --> 01:12:26,700
Jesus. 
Sis. 

1230
01:12:26,700 --> 01:12:28,300
This is why I lived a life of 
faith. 

1231
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:31,000
My faith has now become site. 
Amen. 

1232
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:35,300
Every day by faith, believing 
that God is right here. 

1233
01:12:35,300 --> 01:12:36,500
Next, use the air. 
I breathe. 

1234
01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:39,900
He's in the moments. 
He's here with us. 

1235
01:12:40,100 --> 01:12:42,400
It's a manual means God With Us.
Jesus is name. 

1236
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:46,200
Alone means he is with you. 
But think about this, God did 

1237
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,000
not just die and his mom was 
created. 

1238
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:51,000
Just so, you know him. 
He's also created so that others

1239
01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:55,300
can know him as well, a man, so 
you can know him and make him 

1240
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:57,400
known. 
So, you weren't great to be 

1241
01:12:57,400 --> 01:12:58,400
silent. 
Amen. 

1242
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:04,000
There's no faith in silence. 
Now, in fact, they call a sin of

1243
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:06,400
Silence. 
There's a lot of good people 

1244
01:13:06,700 --> 01:13:11,100
that believe in God, that sits 
silent but there's very few men 

1245
01:13:11,100 --> 01:13:16,000
and women that the boldness and 
courage to step out and open 

1246
01:13:16,000 --> 01:13:17,500
their mouths for the glory of 
God. 

1247
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:20,800
Amen. 
And that's what's 123 is, it is 

1248
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:24,000
the year where we break 
boundaries, it's the year we we 

1249
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:28,100
come out with our faith. 
If there is a were done hiding 

1250
01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:30,300
in the corners, we're done being
pushed. 

1251
01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:33,700
It back on and being down. 
I no longer afraid the King. 

1252
01:13:33,700 --> 01:13:36,500
Come on somebody, the lowercase 
k, right? 

1253
01:13:36,900 --> 01:13:40,200
I'm gonna walk in the glory of 
God and we made a faith person 

1254
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:41,900
has Faith uncle in Beijing. 
I think about it. 

1255
01:13:41,900 --> 01:13:44,900
Amen. 
It's make a post this and be 

1256
01:13:44,900 --> 01:13:46,900
cancelled culture, our church 
come outside, right? 

1257
01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,300
And I don't care, I keep telling
Dynamic retread, I'm like a 

1258
01:13:50,300 --> 01:13:53,000
relic I'm like that old school 
leftover man of Faith. 

1259
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:55,200
Like it's just there, I'm just 
being pushed into a corner all 

1260
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:58,400
the time and then he culture and
Society, it's like just like 

1261
01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:01,100
what an outdated thing. 
What is not outdated, it's 

1262
01:14:01,100 --> 01:14:05,100
really man, and we get to, we 
got to live it out, we got to 

1263
01:14:05,100 --> 01:14:07,600
live it out, not being rude or 
pushing down on people. 

1264
01:14:07,700 --> 01:14:10,600
We love people to Jesus. 
We don't expect them all to 

1265
01:14:10,608 --> 01:14:13,200
understand that our soldiers 
were foreigners. 

1266
01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:17,400
In this country, we transcend 
our culture where generation 

1267
01:14:17,500 --> 01:14:20,000
that the world wasn't worthy of 
that should be our generation. 

1268
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:21,800
A men should put a sign above 
the door. 

1269
01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:24,100
The world is not worthy. 
That's what kind of men and 

1270
01:14:24,100 --> 01:14:25,200
women are. 
Its kind of children. 

1271
01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:28,200
We raise, we didn't limit the 
call of God willing to a chair. 

1272
01:14:28,200 --> 01:14:31,200
Then charted territory with took
grounds the gospel, we broke 

1273
01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:32,900
barriers, not because we're 
perfect. 

1274
01:14:32,900 --> 01:14:35,800
We're forgiven. 
And we're faith-filled for 

1275
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:39,000
Jesus, Michelle, Knight 
scripture or out of here, but 

1276
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:40,500
this is. 
You think about the guiding your

1277
01:14:40,500 --> 01:14:42,900
face. 
Now, your spiritual life taking 

1278
01:14:42,900 --> 01:14:45,800
off Cutting out the voices 
fueled by the power of prayer 

1279
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:48,000
marked by prayer and unchartered
territory. 

1280
01:14:48,100 --> 01:14:50,800
This is the passage for you. 
It's Hebrews. 12 verse 1, 

1281
01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:54,000
through 3 and it says, simply 
says this, therefore, which is 

1282
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,300
referring back to everything we 
just said, he was loving, right?

1283
01:14:56,500 --> 01:14:59,100
Because all these Great Men of 
Faith, all these stories since 

1284
01:14:59,100 --> 01:15:01,600
we are surrounded by such a 
great cloud of witnesses, let us

1285
01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:04,300
throw off everything that 
hinders and the sin that so 

1286
01:15:04,300 --> 01:15:08,700
easily entangles, and let us run
with perseverance, the race 

1287
01:15:08,700 --> 01:15:13,700
marked out for us. 
It was a race for you, the Jesus

1288
01:15:13,700 --> 01:15:16,900
is marked out and you're called 
by faith to run that race like 

1289
01:15:16,900 --> 01:15:21,300
pushing to the Gates of Hell to 
pick up the laid-back lasered 

1290
01:15:21,300 --> 01:15:23,900
better, recliner and put up and 
just get rid of it and move 

1291
01:15:23,900 --> 01:15:26,900
forward to things of God, Amen. 
You have race. 

1292
01:15:27,100 --> 01:15:31,300
They running towards fixing our 
eyes on, Jesus might be the 

1293
01:15:31,300 --> 01:15:33,900
greatest part of that passage. 
You're looking at Christ the 

1294
01:15:33,907 --> 01:15:37,400
entire time, the Pioneer and 
Perfecter of faith for the joy 

1295
01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:39,400
set, before Jesus, he endured 
the cross. 

1296
01:15:39,400 --> 01:15:42,000
Scorning its shame. 
He sat down at the right hand of

1297
01:15:42,008 --> 01:15:44,500
the Throne of God. 
If you want your year and your 

1298
01:15:44,500 --> 01:15:46,800
life to make a difference, this 
is the virtue better putting 

1299
01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:49,900
hard because there's hard times 
and difficult seasons and says, 

1300
01:15:49,900 --> 01:15:54,600
verse 3 says, considered Jesus 
who endured such opposition from

1301
01:15:54,600 --> 01:16:00,300
Sinners, that you will not grow 
weary and lose heart, if you 

1302
01:16:00,300 --> 01:16:03,500
want to give up, you look no 
further than the cross of Jesus,

1303
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:06,600
because it was worth, Jesus 
going all the way for us 

1304
01:16:06,700 --> 01:16:09,400
splitting every ounce of his 
blood so that we could know him.

1305
01:16:09,500 --> 01:16:12,500
It is worth me spending every 
ounce of my blood to serve him. 

1306
01:16:12,500 --> 01:16:16,400
Amen. 
This is called God by faith. 

1307
01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:18,100
We live our life. 
You want your life the matter 

1308
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:21,100
Bill live it by faith not by 
sight father. 

1309
01:16:21,100 --> 01:16:25,300
Come before you better pray for 
a generation of transcended. 

1310
01:16:25,300 --> 01:16:30,400
People gather put you first 
before of faith today, my 

1311
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:32,300
favorite group people that's in 
the house and those are seen it.

1312
01:16:32,300 --> 01:16:35,900
What I know Jesus, but today I 
recognize that one playing it 

1313
01:16:35,900 --> 01:16:39,300
safe I've been playing inside of
a box territory babe. 

1314
01:16:39,300 --> 01:16:42,400
I said Moses rules made my limit
of my own smaller faith of the 

1315
01:16:42,407 --> 01:16:44,100
day. 
I'll have Faith in God. 

1316
01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:47,000
I'll be transcended person. 
I would take ground. 

1317
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:48,600
I'll be that person for my 
family. 

1318
01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,000
I mean, I personally where God 
calls me to go, I'm going to 

1319
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:54,900
live a life of great faith, 
transcend in my culture. 

1320
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:58,000
And I've been weary, I've been 
broken and I realized that they 

1321
01:16:58,000 --> 01:16:59,600
are looking at Jesus and he went
all for me. 

1322
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,000
So I'm going all for him and 
that you day, we just put your 

1323
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:02,800
hand high and say, you know 
what? 

1324
01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:04,600
That's me. 
I'm a big faith today. 

1325
01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:07,200
I'm gonna go all in for Jesus. 
I'm a live on faith as hands. 

1326
01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:09,900
All across this room. 
I'll pray for your father. 

1327
01:17:09,900 --> 01:17:13,100
You see the hands got, make us 
to generation, but the world. 

1328
01:17:13,300 --> 01:17:15,000
Wasn't worthy. 
Let us get to heaven. 

1329
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:17,000
One day. 
There was Chariots of Fire and 

1330
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:19,900
that generation does the 
generation that stood up took 

1331
01:17:19,900 --> 01:17:21,800
round back. 
It was afraid. 

1332
01:17:21,900 --> 01:17:25,600
Most Fearless the culture. 
So God gives the boldness and 

1333
01:17:25,608 --> 01:17:29,800
the courage because we put our 
face to your face, the face into

1334
01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:32,900
the Bible, and we saw you face 
to face and humble ourselves. 

1335
01:17:33,300 --> 01:17:36,600
We walk by faith, not by sight. 
We pray for one more group 

1336
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:37,300
people. 
That's those. 

1337
01:17:37,300 --> 01:17:40,500
You that walked in the day and 
say, no, I'm a man of no faith. 

1338
01:17:40,900 --> 01:17:43,000
I'm a woman of faith. 
I came in with very little faith

1339
01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,600
that Nice face. 
But today, I recognize that 

1340
01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:49,800
Jesus is patiently waiting for 
me at this moment. 

1341
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:53,900
In time is not an accident that 
somebody brought me here and it 

1342
01:17:53,900 --> 01:17:55,700
took faith in them. 
Invite me. 

1343
01:17:56,300 --> 01:17:58,400
And that they brought me into 
the word of God and I hear the 

1344
01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:00,100
voice of God speaking to me 
today. 

1345
01:18:00,100 --> 01:18:03,500
I want to know Jesus, oh, no, 
the Father, the author, and the 

1346
01:18:03,508 --> 01:18:06,000
finisher of Faith. 
I'll be in that city of 

1347
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:07,600
fountains one day and that's 
you. 

1348
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,400
And you want Jesus. 
We forgiven made new set free. 

1349
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,400
If that's you just raise your 
hand high as I need. 

1350
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:14,200
Jesus a day. 
Don't put your hand in the 

1351
01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:15,600
place. 
I'm gonna call you out, making 

1352
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:17,600
weird with you. 
Jesus, come on. 

1353
01:18:18,500 --> 01:18:19,500
That's you just prayed his 
prayers. 

1354
01:18:19,500 --> 01:18:25,100
He finally got thanks so much 
for sending Jesus to die and 

1355
01:18:25,100 --> 01:18:29,400
make it way by faith to you. 
God thank you for the spirit of 

1356
01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:31,600
God that you're going to Port 
generously upon me today. 

1357
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:34,600
God, I want to follow, you, make
me Transcendent in my culture 

1358
01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,300

I'm going to bring the good news

1359
01:18:36,300 --> 01:18:39,200

use came to my home, it's your

change me. 

1361
01:18:41,100 --> 01:18:43,100
And I pray this in faith in 
Jesus. 

1362
01:18:43,300 --> 01:18:44,800
It's in his name. 
We pray. 

1363
01:18:45,500 --> 01:18:47,400
Amen, come on. 
Let's give up for God today. 

1364

In fact, it's quite the 

1368
01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,300
opposite. 
It's the beginning and all of 

1369
01:18:59,300 --> 01:19:01,100

your journey, something else you

1376
01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:20,700
could do on your way out. 
Out of the worship center today 

1377
01:19:20,700 --> 01:19:23,800
is that the back table you can 
grab a red bag and in that bag 

1378
01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:25,500
is a Bible, we just encourage 
you. 

1379
01:19:25,500 --> 01:19:28,600
Dive in Hebrews, would be a 
really cool place to start, just

01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:31,100
kind of following along with 
that message today. 

1381
01:19:31,100 --> 01:19:34,200
And again, there's just even 
more resources in there for you 

1382
01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:36,400
this week. 
You know, Shawn really called us

1383
01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:40,700
this morning, to live a life, 
just transcended by faith. 

1384
01:19:40,700 --> 01:19:43,100
And we just one of the coolest 
ways we can do that. 

1385
01:19:43,100 --> 01:19:45,600
Most practical ways is just to 
say, we're not going to be 

1386
01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:47,700
silent anymore. 
So I want you to look on your 

1387
01:19:47,700 --> 01:19:49,000
chair, you're going to see a red
card. 

1388
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:52,700
That looks like, So that's just 
a really practical cool tool 

1389
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:54,200
that you can have in Your 
Arsenal. 

1390
01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,400
This week is your talking to 
people you can hand this to 

1391
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:59,000
someone and just say, hey, you 
know, here's where I go, here's 

1392
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:02,000
where I worship each week and 
get connected, and I just want 

1393
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:04,500
to invite you to come out and 
join me, sometime and meet some 

1394
01:20:04,500 --> 01:20:08,300
people who God and just people 
that are here for you and you're

1395
01:20:08,300 --> 01:20:10,600
going to know Jesus. 
You're going to hear about your 

1396
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:13,600
purpose and all that good stuff.
What's cool about these cards? 

1397
01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:18,000
There prayed over each week by 
the real-life staff and I just 

1398
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:21,000
encourage you to also add to 
that and pray over these cards 

1399
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,900
yourself this week and just pray
that God will put people in your

1400
01:20:23,900 --> 01:20:25,800
brain that you could be talking 
to. 

1401
01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:29,300
And just if you really want to 
pulled prayer, you can say, God 

1402
01:20:29,300 --> 01:20:32,500
bring people in front of my path
this week that I can talk to. 

1403
01:20:32,500 --> 01:20:35,900
So I said, courage, you to be 
inviting people out, bringing 

1404
01:20:35,900 --> 01:20:40,000
people out and that you will be 
bold by faith this week, man. 

1405
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:42,800
One of the things I love about 
our church is just how generous 

1406
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:45,500
you guys are. 
And, and you really set the pace

1407
01:20:45,500 --> 01:20:49,400
and 2020 2022 and already here 
at the beginning of this year. 

1408
01:20:49,700 --> 01:20:51,200
One of the really cool ways 
you've done that. 

1409
01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:54,200
So our Hope Center, and I'm 
super excited to announce that 

1410
01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,500
we're going to really get to 
minister to the real-life youth.

1411
01:20:57,500 --> 01:21:01,900
As they get to take over and 
really own that Hope Center on 

1412
01:21:01,900 --> 01:21:05,200
Sunday night starting. 
February 19th, can we give it a 

1413
01:21:05,208 --> 01:21:08,700
big for a real-life youth for 
all the adults that serve and 

1414
01:21:08,700 --> 01:21:12,600
just love on these kids, man, 
it's going to be awesome to have

1415
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:15,900
that anchor space that home. 
They can just call their own 

1416
01:21:16,100 --> 01:21:18,400
each and every week not putting 
anybody else out. 

1417
01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:20,400
And so we're just excited for 
that. 

1418
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:21,800
And hey, that doesn't just 
happen. 

1419
01:21:21,800 --> 01:21:24,100
That's because of your 
generosity. 

1420
01:21:24,100 --> 01:21:27,300
And I want to invite you to play
a part of generosity at real 

1421
01:21:27,300 --> 01:21:28,800
life, not just for our real-life
youth. 

1422
01:21:28,800 --> 01:21:31,400
But for all the other 
Ministries, all the other goals 

1423
01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:34,500
that we have here to reach our 
community for Christ. 

1424
01:21:34,500 --> 01:21:37,600
And so, of course, I'm talking 
to people who call real life 

1425
01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:38,700
home. 
If you're brand new with us 

1426
01:21:38,700 --> 01:21:41,700
today, welcome home. 
We love having you here, but I'm

1427
01:21:41,700 --> 01:21:43,900
not going to call you to 
generosity just yet. 

1428
01:21:43,900 --> 01:21:47,300
In fact, this Gathering was our 
gift to you, but if you do call 

1429
01:21:47,300 --> 01:21:48,600
real life home, here's some 
ways. 

1430
01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:52,000
You can play a part. 
Real Life Church kc.com you can 

1431
01:21:52,008 --> 01:21:55,400
text any amount 8, 4 3, 2 1. 
We have a giving box in the very

1432
01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:58,800
back where you can drop off 
envelopes cash, things like that

1433
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:01,800
and then our Usher's going to be
coming by with the giving 

1434
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:03,300
baskets and hey the giving 
buckets. 

1435
01:22:03,300 --> 01:22:07,500
I should say, hey if you find 
yourself immediately in need of 

1436
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:10,100
food, clothing or shelter, we 
just invite you to go ahead and 

1437
01:22:10,100 --> 01:22:12,700
reach in those buckets as they 
go by finding a loose cash. 

1438
01:22:12,700 --> 01:22:16,700
You see, and use that to bless 
you and your family this week. 

1439
01:22:16,700 --> 01:22:19,200
One more exciting thing I want 
you to check out this video as 

1440
01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:20,700
you. 
A little bit more about 

1441
01:22:20,700 --> 01:22:22,200
missions. 
Check it out. 

1442
01:22:31,400 --> 01:22:34,900
I want to give you a quick 
update on how your generosity is

1443
01:22:34,900 --> 01:22:37,300
making a difference across the 
world. 

1444
01:22:37,300 --> 01:22:40,900
Through one of our global 
missions Partners in Colombia 

1445
01:22:40,900 --> 01:22:45,400
South America. 
The eec or Escuela de 

1446
01:22:45,500 --> 01:22:51,100
entrenamiento Cristiano is a in 
Residence discipleship training 

1447
01:22:51,100 --> 01:22:54,300
school where they take young 
people and put them into groups 

1448
01:22:54,300 --> 01:22:57,600
of small verbs, one-on-one, and 
life on life, discipleship. 

1449
01:22:57,600 --> 01:23:02,300
That is changing the landscape 
of Columbia for Jesus under the 

1450
01:23:02,300 --> 01:23:05,700
leadership of you go and Juliana
Rodriguez. 

1451
01:23:05,700 --> 01:23:09,600
The EC is a place where young 
people can know God, they can 

1452
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:12,300
learn how to follow him and 
ultimately they can become 

1453
01:23:12,300 --> 01:23:15,000
leaders for the cause of Christ 
in Colombia. 

1454
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:18,600
Many young people are at a 
Crossroads in their life and the

1455
01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:23,100
EC helps them to come together 
with God to say, what does my 

1456
01:23:23,100 --> 01:23:24,900
life look like? 
And it's truly a 

1457
01:23:24,900 --> 01:23:27,500
transformational place where 
they can connect to the heart of

1458
01:23:27,500 --> 01:23:29,800
God. 
You go shared with me recently 

1459
01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:33,000
that the work that we did. 
Last summer has allowed he and 

1460
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:36,800
his family to move on site at 
the school and it's just been a 

1461
01:23:36,808 --> 01:23:39,500
huge blessing for his family. 
Not to travel back and forth 

1462
01:23:39,500 --> 01:23:41,900
across the country while school 
is in and out of session. 

1463
01:23:41,900 --> 01:23:45,300
And he also shared, they are so 
excited because they've been 

1464
01:23:45,300 --> 01:23:48,800
able to add three full-time and 
one part-time staff member to 

1465
01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:50,800
help lead the school and they 
are. 

1466
01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:53,500
So expecting about all God is 
going to do in their next 

1467
01:23:53,500 --> 01:23:56,400
session which actually starts on
February 17. 

1468
01:23:56,500 --> 01:23:59,700
When you give a real life, you 
are a part of making a 

1469
01:23:59,708 --> 01:24:04,100
difference through the See, not 
just in Bogota, But ultimately 

1470
01:24:04,100 --> 01:24:06,400
across the world. 
As many young people are making 

1471
01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:09,100
decisions to become Church 
Planters and work in the 

1472
01:24:09,100 --> 01:24:12,600
ministry across the world. 
So to all of you who give we 

1473
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:15,800
thank you today. 
Some of you are thinking about 

1474
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:18,900
breaking through the limits of 
this world has placed on you, 

1475
01:24:19,100 --> 01:24:21,700
maybe you're ready to take a big
step of faith in something that 

1476
01:24:21,700 --> 01:24:24,200
God is calling you to. 
And so I want to challenge you 

1477
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:28,400
that today, maybe that big step 
is to go with us to Colombia 

1478
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:30,400
this year. 
I'm from August fit through a 

1479
01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:32,900
lemon three. 
Life is taking a team down to 

1480
01:24:32,900 --> 01:24:36,500
connect with the eec team to 
encourage their leadership and 

1481
01:24:36,500 --> 01:24:39,800
ultimately to see what God will 
do in the lives of us. 

1482
01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,900
When we're fully surrendered to 
him to find out more, you can 

1483
01:24:42,900 --> 01:24:45,100
join us for a short 
informational meeting on 

1484
01:24:45,100 --> 01:24:48,600
February 5th right after the 
second Gathering here at 

1485
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:52,300
Kentucky Trail. 
God changes the world one person

1486
01:24:52,300 --> 01:24:56,500
at a time and I believe that he 
wants to use you to make a big 

1487
01:24:56,500 --> 01:24:59,100
impact across our world this 
summer. 

1488
01:24:59,500 --> 01:25:02,300
Some of you are going to 
experience Since God in a whole 

1489
01:25:02,300 --> 01:25:06,500
new way, this summer and I can't
wait to see how God can use your

1490
01:25:06,500 --> 01:25:09,700
life to impact generations to 
come. 

1491
01:25:09,900 --> 01:25:13,100
Keep going to see you next week 
and in Columbia have a great 

1492
01:25:13,100 --> 01:25:20,200
week, guys. 
He's excited for Missions. 

1493
01:25:21,100 --> 01:25:24,000
I remember it was a video just 
like that last year that really 

1494
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:26,600
called on Brooke and I his heart
to a join the team in Columbia. 

1495
01:25:26,600 --> 01:25:29,700
And so I would encourage you all
to Faithfully consider making 

1496
01:25:29,700 --> 01:25:32,100
room in both your budget and 
your calendar this year to join 

1497
01:25:32,100 --> 01:25:35,200
our team down in Bogota. 
So we'll be back next week, 

1498
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,400
9:30. 
And 11:00 here, Kentucky Trail 

1499
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:40,300
and online. 
If you do need to prayer for any

1500
01:25:40,300 --> 01:25:42,900
reason, we will have a team 
member right here off the stage 

1501
01:25:42,900 --> 01:25:46,400
and as always, whoever finds 
Jesus discovers real life and 

1502
01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:48,200
purpose. 
Next week.
