00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,560
Thanks for checking out the 
Anchor Faith Message podcast 

2
00:00:05,560 --> 00:00:06,920
from St. 
Augustine, FL. 

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:12,080
Now enjoy this message. 
But we want to be able to say 

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,120
things that will cause you to 
grow. 

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,880
Now with that, turn over to 
Second Peter Chapter 3. 

6
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,200
This is not a shocking 
statement. 

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,920
This is just repetition. 
In second Peter chapter 3, 

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,680
starting in verse one, it says 
this is now beloved. 

9
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:30,240
The 2nd letter Peter says I'm 
writing to you in which I am 

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:36,000
stirring up your sincere mind by
way of reminder or remembrance 

11
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,640
depending on which translation 
you're reading. 

12
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,080
Verse two says that you should 
remember. 

13
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,520
Say, remember. 
Say remember. 

14
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,520
Do you understand this is your 
biggest problem? 

15
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,480
Come on husbands, how many times
have you used this on your wife?

16
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,560
When she asked you, did you do 
something? 

17
00:00:54,080 --> 00:01:00,080
You said oh I forgot or I did 
not remember. 

18
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:08,880
Come on now, just be honest. 
And multiple times this becomes 

19
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,880
the excuse of most people. 
This is why I'm a little 

20
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:16,280
skeptical when people come to to
the church, whether it's through

21
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,680
Washington Treasure Harbor, 
Preschool, you know, the Cafe, 

22
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,840
the church in general, whether 
it's some area ministry that 

23
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,120
someone says, oh, I didn't know 
that. 

24
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:30,520
No one told me that, that when I
hear stuff like that, I'm 

25
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,320
thinking Nah. 
They just chose not to remember 

26
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:41,680
because I realize how much we 
actually communicate that when 

27
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,520
someone acts like they're 
oblivious, I become a little 

28
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:52,520
skeptical of that process. 
Just like husbands, our wives 

29
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,600
are skeptical when we say, I 
don't remember you saying that. 

30
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,480
Is that not what we've said? 
Yeah, I've said it on more than 

31
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:03,960
one. 
I don't. 

32
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,360
I don't remember you saying 
that. 

33
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,680
And it usually follows with 
this. 

34
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:14,160
But I did, Right. 
So again, our wives call that 

35
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,600
selective hearing. 
We're only wanting to hear what 

36
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,800
we want to hear, you know, And 
the rest of it, we tuned out, 

37
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,920
you know, because all of a 
sudden, my wife turned into 

38
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:26,480
Charlie Brown's teacher. 
Wah wah, wah, wah, wah 

39
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:34,120
concerning that subject, but we 
do this with the Lord and Peter 

40
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,720
was wise enough. 
I could go to a letter that Paul

41
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,960
wrote, writes to Timothy 
concerning this, but I'll stay 

42
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,160
focused on this particular one 
that we are to remember. 

43
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,040
He said that you should remember
the word spoken beforehand by 

44
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,560
the holy prophets and the 
commandments of our Lord and 

45
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:53,000
Savior spoken by your apostles. 
So he's given reference here 

46
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,640
that I'm trying to get you to 
remember something you've 

47
00:02:55,640 --> 00:03:02,880
already heard because what 
you've already heard has the 

48
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,440
ability to keep you somewhere, 
strengthen you, grow you. 

49
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,240
But if you're not remembering, 
in essence, Peter saying, I 

50
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,240
don't need to tell you something
new. 

51
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,640
I need to remind you of 
something you already know. 

52
00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:18,960
Because what you already know 
you need to continue in. 

53
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,320
And yet we've kind of have this 
psyche in our mindset if we 

54
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,760
don't watch out as 'cause, you 
know, our public school system 

55
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:35,000
has taught us this is that we, 
we study the night before a test

56
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,880
in order to pass the test with a
passing grade. 

57
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,800
That's all that matters. 
Just pass. 

58
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:47,200
Then we do not remember that 
information because the test is 

59
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,440
over. 
Let's go on to the next thing. 

60
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,600
And as the teacher is talking, 
we're really not technically 

61
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,320
listening, right? 
I mean, there's very few people 

62
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,800
that are really studious. 
Let's just be honest. 

63
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,760
And I was one of those people in
high school. 

64
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,840
I was not studious. 
I just happened to be able to 

65
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,840
retain information. 
Well, OK, I could do that. 

66
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,960
I mean, where I would have been 
if I had been really a studier 

67
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,960
because some people can 
naturally do well. 

68
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:18,200
Others they really study and 
still struggle because they, you

69
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,839
know, it's just not one of their
expertise per SE in a particular

70
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,800
subject of what the case may be.
But you know, many of us, we 

71
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,360
were more concerned, and this is
long before the social media 

72
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,920
stuff that we have today. 
We were more concerned about 

73
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,400
where our friends were and what 
was going in between class than 

74
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,960
what was going on in class, 
which means then we're 

75
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,360
conditioned when we get in 
church, the same thing. 

76
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,640
You're more concerned about 
talking to that person in the 

77
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,880
four year before service and 
after service. 

78
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,520
Then you are about what's going 
on right now in service. 

79
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,560
And then you only want to be 
able to talk about the the 

80
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,120
issues or the subjects that 
we've ministered when the test 

81
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,880
comes. 
Oh, now what? 

82
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,320
Now what? 
It's test time. 

83
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,240
Tomorrow it's a test. 
All of a sudden I'm being 

84
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,200
attacked. 
There's a test. 

85
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:03,680
OK, what do I need? 
I need a cram for the exam. 

86
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,760
Then once it's over, what do we 
do? 

87
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:09,480
We don't think about it anymore 
and we wait. 

88
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,880
We don't think about sickness 
and disease. 

89
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,000
We don't even talk over our 
bodies that were healthy and 

90
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,440
healed. 
We have no cocktails. 

91
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,680
It attacks. 
Then we cram. 

92
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,400
We want to get past the test. 
We finally get past the test and

93
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:21,880
then we don't think about it 
anymore. 

94
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,080
Same thing. 
We get financial straits. 

95
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,720
We don't want to. 
We all of a sudden say what do 

96
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:26,960
we do? 
We start being a giver. 

97
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,400
We're doing what we need to do. 
Then all of a sudden we get past

98
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,280
that and we forget and we don't 
apply those principles. 

99
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,560
Now when I say that we're 
talking about the majority of 

100
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,480
people, but not at Anchor Fate 
Church. 

101
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,240
At Anchor Fate Church, we are 
doers. 

102
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,000
We'll talk about that a little 
bit more. 

103
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,960
Verse three says no, this first 
of all, that in the last days 

104
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,120
mockers will come and they're 
mocking, following after their 

105
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,000
own lusts. 
So Peter is warning, listen, I 

106
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,560
need to stir up your memory. 
I need you to remember things 

107
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,560
you've already heard, because in
the last days there are people 

108
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:07,040
who will mock truth and they 
will try to turn truth to their 

109
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:12,040
own lust. 
They'll try to convince you that

110
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,640
their truth will. 
It should be your truth because 

111
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,360
they have a truth You can have, 
a truth they may not match, but 

112
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,240
ultimately you should really 
come over to mine. 

113
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,600
When anyone says this is my 
truth, it won't be long before 

114
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,960
they're trying to convince you 
that their truth is truth 

115
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,920
because nobody just accepts 
their personal truth. 

116
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:35,280
They're trying to convince 
people that their personal truth

117
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,520
should be your truth because 
ultimately your truth and my 

118
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:44,520
truth could be a conflict. 
However, Christ or the Holy 

119
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,640
Spirit is the truth, He's the 
spirit of truth, period. 

120
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,640
All right, so First Timothy 41, 
we use this at the beginning of 

121
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,480
the year. 
I'm going to read out the good 

122
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,400
God's Word translation. 
He says the Spirit says clearly 

123
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,920
that in latter times some 
believers will desert the 

124
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,280
Christian faith. 
They will follow spirits that 

125
00:07:06,280 --> 00:07:09,720
deceive, and they will believe 
the teachings of demons. 

126
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,120
Now in January we lost our year 
with the reigning spirit. 

127
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:23,400
It's July, how are you raining? 
It's July, how are you raining? 

128
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,560
Have you taken an assessment? 
Has the spirit in you been 

129
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,680
raining and have you been 
raining because you have the 

130
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,320
reigning spirit or has something
already happened in February, 

131
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:41,280
March, April, May, June that all
of a sudden you're on the ropes,

132
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,920
you're entertaining other 
thoughts, you're thinking other 

133
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,440
things. 
I would love to be able to just 

134
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,960
teach a subject one time and it 
stick, but we understand that 

135
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,280
just doesn't happen. 
However, unfortunately, when I 

136
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,280
repeat subjects, if we don't 
hear right, then the reality, 

137
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,960
the repetition of the subject 
isn't making anyone better 

138
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,520
because again, we're 
conditioned. 

139
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,240
I've already taken that test. 
I got to be. 

140
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,080
I'm going on, give me something 
else, give me something else, 

141
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,520
give me something else. 
Yet Peter's like, look, you need

142
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,920
to be reminded of what you 
already know because you're not 

143
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,680
passionate about. 
Remember when you first heard 

144
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:33,039
again, not picking on Sabrina, 
but she's already has this 

145
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,520
little thought. 
And this is not negative, but 

146
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,960
notice how she said when they 
said we've never heard it. 

147
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:43,039
She goes, Oh, that's just now I 
understand she not downplaying 

148
00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:50,280
it, but for her I it's what I've
heard and know now, as opposed 

149
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:58,120
to Oh, you've never heard right,
because it's not just the 

150
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:03,560
Kingdom, it's the Kingdom. 
Oh, it's oh, you don't know the 

151
00:09:03,560 --> 00:09:04,920
Kingdom. 
Oh, you need to know the 

152
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,080
Kingdom. 
You need to know the kingdom's 

153
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,800
something. 
The kingdom's what it's all 

154
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,120
about. 
It's what the whole Bible's 

155
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,560
about. 
It's about a king, his Kingdom 

156
00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:13,520
and his royal offspring. 
It's an amazing thing. 

157
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,760
His Kingdom. 
It's an amazing who God is as 

158
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,840
the King of everything, how he 
saved our lives, brought us into

159
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,800
his Kingdom, made us his all 
seed us, is in heavenly places, 

160
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,880
put his spirit in US. 
It's an amazing thing, this 

161
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:30,560
Kingdom that we're in. 
But again, for you to take that 

162
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:34,600
kind of attitude, you have to 
stir yourself up and remind 

163
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,280
yourself of how amazing this 
Kingdom you're functioning in. 

164
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,880
Because what can happen is is 
you can get so natural in a 

165
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,960
supernatural sense that you 
don't even take in account how 

166
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:51,760
awesome this really is. 
Amen. 

167
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:55,080
So we need to ask ourselves 
again, coming back to the 

168
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,240
reigning spirit, are we 
functioning with this reigning 

169
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,160
spirit now? 
What does it mean to have the 

170
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,800
reigning spirit again? 
Since we've started January, 

171
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,760
we've had a lot of guests come 
in, new people. 

172
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,480
There are more people coming in 
this summer. 

173
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:11,560
Then, you know, it's a little 
deceiving because people are on 

174
00:10:11,560 --> 00:10:13,400
vacation. 
So, you know, we got some pretty

175
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,680
good amount of seats still. 
People are in and out. 

176
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,400
But man, when this fall hits, 
all of a sudden everyone's going

177
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,760
to kind of come. 
And we traditionally speaking, 

178
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,200
it just tends to happen in this 
way that when school hits right 

179
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,360
after Labor Day, it's like 
everybody packs in and we're 

180
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,960
going to have one of those spike
services where it seemed like 

181
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,920
everybody decided to, almost 
everybody decided to come to 

182
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,760
church at the same time. 
That would be an amazing day. 

183
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,040
But it still has not occurred. 
OK. 

184
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:42,240
Now, with that being said, then 
you're going to be going, what? 

185
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,880
Where did all these people? 
How did we get so crowded? 

186
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,920
Well, people are cycling now. 
People are coming in, which 

187
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,520
means there are people who are 
coming in that haven't heard 

188
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,680
what you've heard. 
And if I do not say what you 

189
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:03,680
know to them, because when I say
Kingdom, for many you're like, I

190
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:06,120
got that. 
But for others, that's heaven 

191
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,280
because for many of you, that's 
what it was. 

192
00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:12,960
You didn't realize the Bible's 
about a Kingdom. 

193
00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:16,360
You didn't realize it was about 
a literal government where the 

194
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:21,920
king rules and reigns. 
But once we begin to break 

195
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,360
things down properly, then we 
are reminded. 

196
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:29,480
But I love to preach the Kingdom
because the Kingdom will always 

197
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:34,240
keep you in the position of 
lordship because it's easy when 

198
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:39,320
you start to kind of let go of 
the Kingdom lens that you'll let

199
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,800
go of the lordship of Jesus and 
you'll fall back to, I love the 

200
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:50,640
Savior because it exposes. 
We don't want to be told. 

201
00:11:54,560 --> 00:11:58,760
It exposes we don't want to be 
told what to do and even with 

202
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:08,480
Jesus, Amen. 
Man, I'm telling you, it'd be 

203
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,360
tough if Jesus was standing in a
pulpit today, it'd be tough. 

204
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,000
Notice what Jesus did not do. 
The rich on ruler came to him 

205
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,240
and said, man, what do I got to 
do? 

206
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,880
I mean, most past should be 
jumping. 

207
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,080
Praise God, this is a wealthy 
guy. 

208
00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:27,840
He's coming to my church. 
He's got all this kind of 

209
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,640
influence and he wants to know 
how to be born again. 

210
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:36,120
Oh man, this is amazing. 
Jesus says sell everything you 

211
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:37,560
have, give to the porn, Come 
follow me. 

212
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,320
The guy hangs his head and 
leaves. 

213
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,880
Most pastors would say, OK, what
do you need to hear so I can 

214
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:51,320
keep you? 
I'm sorry, maybe you know what? 

215
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,480
I don't want it to be so hard 
that it's that you feel like you

216
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,640
can't accomplish this. 
So let's do baby steps. 

217
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,000
Jesus never ran down the rich 
young ruler. 

218
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,720
He never compromised his 
message. 

219
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,200
He never went and said, and 
here's the crazy thing, the rich

220
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,600
young ruler could not be born 
again. 

221
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,600
Yet he did not say, OK, let me 
give him a truth he can handle. 

222
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,000
If you can't handle the 
simplicity of lordship, then 

223
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:28,040
you're not handling anything in 
the church because as long as 

224
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:34,120
your life is your own, then 
you're not going to access the 

225
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,920
Kingdom. 
Say Amen anyway. 

226
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,600
Hallelujah. 
And again, we are without 

227
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,000
excuse. 
We have the reigning spirit. 

228
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,360
This dispensation we're in is an
amazing dispensation because 

229
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,640
those that preceded us, other 
than Adam, the first Adam, we 

230
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,520
are living in a fullness that no
other generation other than Adam

231
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:06,160
and Eve have never lived in it. 
We are and there will be a 

232
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,520
generation that will do more, 
will be in something more than 

233
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,080
us and that is when Jesus 
returns to the earth and he 

234
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,800
reigns on the earth where people
will be born again, have the 

235
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,920
Spirit of God within them and 
can physically see Jesus. 

236
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,760
That's pretty amazing. 
We are in that one, ours is. 

237
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,800
We live it by faith. 
We do not physically see Jesus, 

238
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,560
but we know him by the Spirit. 
We know him by the Word. 

239
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,720
We know we're alive unto God. 
We are new creature in Christ. 

240
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,880
The Holy Spirit lives on earth. 
It's an amazing time to live. 

241
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,240
In fact, man, those clouds of 
witnesses that are looking over 

242
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,600
like if only I had had that, I 
was in the earth, if I had only 

243
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:51,200
had that, if I had only been 
able to live in that capacity 

244
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:56,480
that way. 
Oh, the advantages you have is 

245
00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:00,400
what they're saying, not. 
Oh, and the advantage is not you

246
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,920
can do anything sinful and it 
doesn't matter because Christ 

247
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,520
paid the paid the price. 
That is not what they're saying.

248
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,960
They're saying you are alive to 
God. 

249
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,520
We were not. 
You have the Holy Spirit in you 

250
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,240
and upon you. 
We only had it upon the 

251
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,800
prophets, the priests and the 
kings. 

252
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:24,040
Us regular people never had it. 
And yet you have the spirit 

253
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,160
within the spirit upon your 
spirit's changed. 

254
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,040
You know your royalty, you know 
that you submitted to the King. 

255
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,760
You have the third person of the
Godhead on what is the problem? 

256
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:42,320
How is sin even an issue? 
Because when you have a reigning

257
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,360
spirit like, hey, you're like, 
what issue? 

258
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,640
Come on, what issue? 
What issue do we have? 

259
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,520
We have no issues. 
Go ahead, look at you and say I 

260
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,200
have no issues. 
We have no issues. 

261
00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:05,800
Jesus has destroyed your victim 
card, destroyed it, burned it, 

262
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:11,240
crucified, nailed it to the 
cross, completely exposed it. 

263
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,920
You are without excuse. 
And you know who else's victim 

264
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,480
card he's? 
He's destroyed the ones that are

265
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,200
still outside his Kingdom. 
They don't have an excuse 

266
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,760
either. 
He's like, I've wiped it all 

267
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,040
out. 
So we need to carry our victor 

268
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,080
card. 
Come on, we are victors. 

269
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,040
What issue do we even have? 
We don't even have an issue 

270
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:41,000
because when issues come, they 
have to go, man. 

271
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,400
We have the reigning spirit. 
Hallelujah. 

272
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,000
The Lord was intentional after 
the fall of Adam, because when 

273
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,000
God made man in his image 
according to his likeness, He 

274
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,400
gave him dominion or rule. 
But when Adam ate the fruit, he 

275
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,680
should have never eaten. 
Because God said you want to 

276
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,600
prove you love me, don't eat 
this one tree. 

277
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,920
You can have the rest because I 
love you and I provided for you.

278
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,839
I do what I say, so I'm asking 
you to do what I say. 

279
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,839
So don't eat this fruit, cause 
the day you eat you'll die. 

280
00:17:08,839 --> 00:17:11,720
And when Adam ate the fruit, 
death came into the earth. 

281
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,000
He get he abdicated his 
rulership and throne. 

282
00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:17,839
He gave his dominion to the 
devil. 

283
00:17:17,839 --> 00:17:21,359
The devil received his dominion 
or his rule, but did not receive

284
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:26,160
his likeness. 
The devil did not transform into

285
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,280
the image of man, but he did 
receive his authority. 

286
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,440
That's why the Bible says in 2nd
Corinthians 4 four that he's 

287
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,720
was, is considered the God of 
this world. 

288
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,160
He's the the one who's in 
authority. 

289
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,520
He's the one who is controlling 
the systems of the world, the 

290
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,960
things of darkness. 
He is the leader, he is the 

291
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,080
king. 
He is the king of of darkness. 

292
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,640
He is the king of, of 
disobedience. 

293
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:57,360
He is the father of lies. 
But God, I said, but God being 

294
00:17:57,360 --> 00:18:01,720
rich in his mercy, said my seed 
is corrupted because of the 

295
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,440
first Adam. 
I'll have to bring another seed.

296
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,360
And we see this in Genesis 
chapter 3, verse 15. 

297
00:18:07,360 --> 00:18:09,320
The the amplified says it this 
way. 

298
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,280
And I will put enmity, open 
hostility, say open hostility. 

299
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:19,080
I mean, if you don't have open 
hostility towards the things of 

300
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,160
the devil, this is a problem. 
He said. 

301
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,160
I will put enmity, open 
hostility between you, that's 

302
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,280
the serpent and the woman 
between your seed. 

303
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:33,080
That's the offspring of the 
devil and her seed. 

304
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,400
Notice it doesn't say seeds, it 
says seed. 

305
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,600
He shall fatally bruise your 
head and you shall only bruise 

306
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,800
his heel. 
Now I love this translation. 

307
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,000
It says it this way really 
pretty awesome because it really

308
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:53,080
gives a great illustration of 
what Jesus is what is being done

309
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,160
in the the latter part of this 
first because again, when we 

310
00:18:56,360 --> 00:18:59,400
hear that he will crush your 
head, but you'll bruise his heel

311
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,880
and we always think a bruise in 
the heel is that you know, he 

312
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,800
would he bore by his stripes. 
He bore sickness and disease. 

313
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,960
You know the devil you know, put
him on a cross. 

314
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,920
That's the bruising. 
But really look at this context 

315
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,640
is even more clear. 
This translation says that this 

316
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:19,280
way I do not know what it is. 
It's the ABP plus and it means 

317
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,600
this and hatred will be put 
between you and between the 

318
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,920
woman between your seed and and 
be her seed. 

319
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:33,680
He will heed, He will give heed 
to your head and you will give 

320
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,600
heed to his heel. 
Now, this is really a great 

321
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,280
illustration because in essence,
he says when this is all said 

322
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:46,080
and done, when you look up his, 
his heel will be on you. 

323
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,120
In essence, you're going to give
heed to his head. 

324
00:19:49,120 --> 00:19:53,240
He's the head, he's the 
Conqueror, he's the king of 

325
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,040
kings. 
He's the one over you. 

326
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,760
And guess where you'll be when 
he looks down, He'll see you up 

327
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:03,160
underneath his feet. 
You'll be under his feet. 

328
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,840
You'll be given heed to his 
head, his authority, his power, 

329
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,800
his dominion. 
You'll be submitted, and you 

330
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,520
know what you'll be to him. 
And when he looks at you and he 

331
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,040
takes account of you, he'll see 
that you are far beneath my 

332
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,160
feet. 
You have been whipped, stripped,

333
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,360
and I have received that, that 
which the first Adam lost. 

334
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,960
Glory to God. 
So say the seed is coming, and 

335
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,360
the seed has come. 
Galatians 316 says now the 

336
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:37,200
promises were spoken to Abraham 
and to his seed. 

337
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:43,600
He does not say to his seeds as 
referring to many, but rather to

338
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,400
one. 
And to your seed, that is, that 

339
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,880
is, that is. 
Now Christ is not the last name 

340
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,040
of Jesus Christ is the title of 
Jesus. 

341
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,960
It is the Greek word that is 
equivalent to a Hebrew word, 

342
00:20:59,120 --> 00:21:02,840
which is Messiah. 
So when we say Messiah or we say

343
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,760
Christ, it means the same thing 
in its meaning. 

344
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,760
It means the anointed one and 
his anointing. 

345
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,120
But what does that mean? 
It means that God anoints his 

346
00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:17,160
kings. 
We see this description when man

347
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,320
rejected God in First Samuel 
chapter as their king, and they 

348
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,240
wanted their own man king, a 
person they could see on the 

349
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,840
earth. 
And the Lord says, give the 

350
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,680
people what they want, Samuel, 
for they've not rejected you, 

351
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,480
but they've rejected me as king.
And when Samuel went and gave 

352
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,480
them the person they were 
thinking of, they received a guy

353
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,280
by the name of Saul from the 
tribe of Benjamin. 

354
00:21:40,360 --> 00:21:45,120
But in order for him to be the 
king over God's nation, Israel, 

355
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:50,200
Samuel had to anoint his head 
with oil, which is as a type and

356
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,320
shadow of the Holy Ghost, so 
that the anointing are the 

357
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,680
presence of God. 
Because God is the one who has 

358
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:03,160
the rightful place of dominion 
and authority over humans. 

359
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:11,040
Man was never given that right. 
Man's dominion was always 

360
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:15,160
limited to the things created on
the earth, but not to humans 

361
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,640
themselves. 
God is the ruler of man, so man 

362
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:24,200
can never rule over another man 
unless God was involved. 

363
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,960
God never intended it in the 1st
place, but when Adam ate the 

364
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:32,440
fruit, it became necessary in 
order to safeguard humanity. 

365
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:39,040
Now he didn't need to do it for 
his nation, but they rejected 

366
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,920
him and so he shows them the 
Spirit of God had to come upon 

367
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:50,560
them in order for them to rule. 
Yet Solomon or Samuel or Saul, 

368
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:56,960
excuse me, King Saul failed to 
stay in compliance with the 

369
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,840
anointing he had. 
The anointing on him can be 

370
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:05,040
disrupted if you do not obey the
king. 

371
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:10,320
That's why the prophet said God 
desires obedience more than. 

372
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,920
Now let me just say this. 
The minute you obey, you've 

373
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:20,280
already included a sacrifice. 
In fact, you cannot actually 

374
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,040
have obedience outside of 
sacrifice. 

375
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,360
But you can have sacrifice 
outside of obedience. 

376
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,160
So well, how's that possible? 
The minute I obey God, I 

377
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,680
sacrificed my will and my way of
doing it. 

378
00:23:38,360 --> 00:23:43,600
But I can do sacrifices to try 
to get God's attention and not 

379
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:51,200
be obeying Him at all. 
I can be doing principles, but 

380
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,120
my heart is far from the 
process. 

381
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,360
Are you hearing me? 
So the Lord's like I desire 

382
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:05,240
obedience more than sacrifice. 
Are you hearing what I'm saying?

383
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,800
So the anointed one in his 
anointing, this is what happens 

384
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,920
to kings. 
What did Jesus say in Luke? 

385
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,880
He said the Spirit of the Lord 
is upon me, for he has anointed 

386
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,680
me. 
And the Father, when he was 

387
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,680
baptized in the Jordan and came 
up, the heavens opened up and 

388
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,960
the Spirit of God came upon him.
That was the anointing. 

389
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,720
He didn't have natural oil being
poured on him by John the 

390
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,640
Baptist or any prophet of his 
time. 

391
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,480
Although John was a prophet, He 
was the greatest prophet. 

392
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:37,760
Actually Jesus said this no 
prophets as great as John, but 

393
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,440
yet he's the least in the 
Kingdom of heaven. 

394
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,440
Are you hearing me? 
So John did not pour oil on 

395
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,320
Jesus head The the he didn't get
a type and shadow. 

396
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,680
He had the Holy Spirit come and 
he poured on him without 

397
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,120
measure. 
And then the declaration from 

398
00:24:53,120 --> 00:24:58,520
the King of all creation, the 
Father him says, says, this is 

399
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:03,440
my Son, in whom I am what? 
Well, please, this is the 

400
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,720
announcement. 
Here's my son. 

401
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:11,640
This is the King that is taking 
back dominion for humanity on 

402
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,960
the earth. 
And did he do it? 

403
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,880
Come on, did he do it? 
I said, did he do it? 

404
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:23,320
Jesus understood He was the seed
in John chapter 12 verse 23 and 

405
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,560
25. 
The easy reader version says it 

406
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,960
this way. 
Jesus said to them, The time has

407
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,320
come for the Son of man to 
receive his glory. 

408
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,720
It is a fact that a grain. 
It is a fact that a grain of 

409
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,920
wheat must fall to the ground 
and die before it can grow and 

410
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,480
produce much more wheat. 
If it never dies. 

411
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:50,120
It will never be more than a 
single seed if it never dies. 

412
00:25:50,120 --> 00:25:57,680
And here's the thing, if Jesus 
had not yielded himself to this,

413
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,360
he would have never died on the 
earth. 

414
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,040
For the first Adam had a command
from the Father. 

415
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,560
You can eat from any tree of the
garden, but of the tree of the 

416
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,040
knowledge of good and evil, you 
shall not eat for the day. 

417
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,600
Say the day. 
For the day you eat, you will 

418
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,600
surely. 
So if Adam had never eaten the 

419
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:23,400
fruit, where would he be today? 
So Adam had eternal life at 

420
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,280
creation. 
He didn't need eternal life, He 

421
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:34,120
was living eternal life. 
He stepped out of eternal life 

422
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:43,000
and moved over into death. 
So if the first Adam had eternal

423
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:48,640
life, then the last Adam, a man 
who knew no sin because the 

424
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,280
wages of sin is Jesus said I 
only do what the Father says. 

425
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,520
Why? 
Because the first Adam did not 

426
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,360
and he died. 
If I follow suit, death would 

427
00:26:58,360 --> 00:27:00,360
come to me, also me, then death 
to God. 

428
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,680
But God only does his word 
because that's his character. 

429
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:09,600
I said that's his character. 
So Jesus keeping his word could 

430
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,320
have never. 
And if the devil would have 

431
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,880
known this, he never would have 
put him on a cross, because we 

432
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:21,040
would be seeing Jesus today. 
But Jesus has to die. 

433
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,800
Why? 
Because a payment must be made 

434
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,960
so that you can live again. 
I can live again, and all those 

435
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:34,200
who preceded us can live again. 
Who have, who believed the day 

436
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,760
would come that a seed would 
show up. 

437
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,200
So Jesus says, listen, unless I 
die, I'll remain alone. 

438
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,680
And at the end, at the bottom, 
is this. 

439
00:27:46,120 --> 00:27:48,840
The conclusion of this thought 
would be this. 

440
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:55,600
Should Jesus had not died for 
our sins, then the Father could 

441
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,080
have rightly judged all of 
humanity. 

442
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,800
We would have been thrown into 
the lake of fire. 

443
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,040
The prison system of the Kingdom
justly and on the planet would 

444
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,000
have been Jesus reigning by 
himself. 

445
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:22,760
But God was obligated to make a 
way for man because he said, let

446
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,520
us make man in our image 
according to our likeness. 

447
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:35,240
And even though a man destroyed 
that path by rebelling, God open

448
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,280
another path through a different
seed. 

449
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,400
And you've heard Pastor Roddy 
minister here, the King Khan. 

450
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,080
Are you the king Khan? 
I said, are you the king Khan? 

451
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,080
Are you the king Khan? 
Well, if you're the King Khan, 

452
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:52,200
then that means you must reign 
and you have to remind yourself 

453
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,000
you're reigning. 
And in this world, there's a lot

454
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,720
of stuff out there, but that's 
not what we focus on. 

455
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,960
He goes on and says in verse 25,
whoever loses the life they have

456
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,680
now or whoever loves the life 
they have now will lose it. 

457
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,160
But whoever is willing to give 
up their life in this world will

458
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,320
keep it. 
They will have eternal life. 

459
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:20,120
You have to choose daily to say 
I am not running after the 

460
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,160
passions of this world and its 
pursuits. 

461
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,760
You must abandoned those 
thoughts. 

462
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,480
And I'm telling you, the Kingdom
life is way different than the 

463
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,320
American life or the American 
Dream. 

464
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,560
And the American Dream is not 
part of the gospel. 

465
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,400
We have to learn a whole new 
set. 

466
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,880
But we have been conditioned to 
the American dream. 

467
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:56,320
Good job, great benefits, nice 
house, great retirement, and so 

468
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,000
many live this way. 
And in order for us to obtain 

469
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,160
those four, we're going to have 
a great education. 

470
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,880
And our world's not gotten 
better because of the education,

471
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,560
because of the university 
systems, has not gotten better, 

472
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,040
has only grown worse. 
I mean, they have become highly 

473
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:20,520
educated. 
Thieves, criminals, backbiters, 

474
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:25,400
gossipers, slanderers, mockers. 
Yeah. 

475
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,280
And yet we want to pursue their 
lifestyles. 

476
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:38,760
When you actually have the 
reigning spirit, you actually 

477
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:44,280
have the life they want. 
I don't want to live in such a 

478
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,880
way that they're like, well, you
look like the rest of the world,

479
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,960
but it's like, how are you like 
that? 

480
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:59,160
That they're not confused with 
the possessions I could have 

481
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,040
because God has caused me to 
prosper. 

482
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:09,240
But there will be something more
tangible about my life that they

483
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,000
would be like. 
You're different, Come on, are 

484
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,520
you different? 
The Bible calls you peculiar, 

485
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,680
actually, and you need to stay 
in the box of peculiar. 

486
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,120
Now, I'm not talking some of you
just being weird for weird's 

487
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,920
sake. 
Quit being weird for weird's 

488
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,200
sake. 
We're talking peculiar in a holy

489
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,680
sake. 
Some of y'all can identify with 

490
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,600
my statement when we're talking 
about some things there, you 

491
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,280
know, don't be weird for the 
sake of weird. 

492
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,600
Be peculiar because you're not 
of this world because you have a

493
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,760
reigning spirit in you. 
Amen. 

494
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:45,080
Come on, what's Romans 811 say? 
Can I remind you today, But if 

495
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,480
the latter part, but if the I 
mean the beginning, but if the 

496
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:54,320
spirit of him who raised Jesus 
from the dead dwells. 

497
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:06,280
If conditional statement, which 
means you have to do what's 

498
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,280
necessary, can I just say it 
this way? 

499
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:15,080
Do not get offended because God 
requires you to do something. 

500
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:23,080
Now let me just say it this way 
and do not get upset because God

501
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,760
requires you actually to do a 
lot. 

502
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:49,410
I don't get to pick what God is 
requiring me to do or bring down

503
00:32:49,410 --> 00:32:52,330
a truth because I'm not 
comfortable with that truth. 

504
00:32:52,370 --> 00:32:56,250
And I do it a different way 
because my heart's there to do 

505
00:32:56,250 --> 00:32:59,450
it that way. 
Now here's the thing, if your 

506
00:32:59,450 --> 00:33:01,970
heart's not in it, it doesn't 
matter what you do. 

507
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,920
Heart is always the the the 
component that has to be there. 

508
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,960
But you understand you're not in
the Kingdom of God unless you 

509
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,880
believe with your heart, confess
with your mouth Jesus as Lord. 

510
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,920
That's the requirement. 
It's the call. 

511
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:26,040
But we know that people will 
say, but Lord, didn't we 

512
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,920
prophecy in your didn't we cast 
a didn't we? 

513
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,640
And he's going to say depart 
from me. 

514
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:35,520
I never knew you workers of 
lawlessness, meaning you did 

515
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,200
actions that were contrary to 
what I was saying. 

516
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:44,400
Yet you're saying you're mine. 
But I know you're not mine. 

517
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,920
So there's a requirement for 
salvation. 

518
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,640
A requirement for you to believe
with all your heart that Jesus 

519
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,680
Christ came, died on the cross, 
His blood was spilled for your 

520
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,680
wrong transgression, your 
wrongdoing. 

521
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,440
It paid the price once and for 
all. 

522
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,480
And you must believe in your 
heart and confess it with your 

523
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,520
mouth. 
Jesus is supreme and authority. 

524
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:12,679
He is my Lord. 
I follow him with everything. 

525
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,800
And then he says, now you're 
going to love me, love me this 

526
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,400
way. 
You love me with all your heart,

527
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,400
all your soul, all your mind, 
all your strength. 

528
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,480
And if you love me, you'll keep 
my word now. 

529
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:26,600
Well, my heart, I just think 
it's really what my heart is. 

530
00:34:27,199 --> 00:34:30,840
And you know, my heart is to 
love him with all my spirit, but

531
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,480
my soul is optional because I 
like to keep some of my 

532
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,800
thinking. 
And as far as, you know, how 

533
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:42,639
often I physically manifest in 
his presence called his church, 

534
00:34:43,639 --> 00:34:44,800
you know, that's really up to 
me. 

535
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:46,440
It's whatever my what's in my 
heart. 

536
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,440
It's not what was in your heart.
It's what his word is. 

537
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,280
And you need to get your heart 
right with His word. 

538
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,120
Are you supposed to forgive 
others? 

539
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,040
Then you got to get your heart 
right. 

540
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,920
Well, you know what, in this 
situation, you know I'm just, 

541
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,440
what do you mean? 
You're just get your heart right

542
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:14,560
with His word. 
And then I could go on a list of

543
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:19,600
things, a list of things that He
says we are to do and yet we 

544
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,680
don't feel like it's our heart 
to do. 

545
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,680
So it must not mean that what 
he's saying we don't have to do,

546
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:28,160
because really all that matters 
is what's in our heart. 

547
00:35:29,240 --> 00:35:31,800
Well, you need to have His word 
hidden in your. 

548
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:36,320
OK, Are we clear? 
Not yet. 

549
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,080
But I'm for those who have ears,
let them. 

550
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:44,680
But if the Spirit of him who 
raised Jesus from the dead 

551
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:50,800
dwells in you, this is an 
amazing thing. 

552
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:52,680
I said. 
This is amazing. 

553
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:58,520
Death could not hold you down. 
So how in the world will we live

554
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:05,200
substandard life in the Spirit 
on the planet and say that the 

555
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:10,640
Holy Spirit's only ability is to
remind us we're children of God 

556
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,280
so that when we die, we go to 
heaven? 

557
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:16,320
But he really has no other power
concerning any other issues of 

558
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,120
the world. 
He definitely can save us from 

559
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,200
our sin. 
The blood of Jesus can do that. 

560
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,520
But as far as overcoming 
obstacles, offenses, failures, 

561
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:32,280
you know, forgiveness, giving 
all kinds of things, he can't do

562
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:33,680
that. 
We're just glad we're going to 

563
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,680
go to heaven when we die. 
He can't stop sickness and 

564
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:46,240
disease on the planet the Spirit
went think of. 

565
00:36:46,240 --> 00:36:51,200
We don't even think about this. 
Jesus was never separated from 

566
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:58,140
the Father. 
Never. 

567
00:36:59,820 --> 00:37:02,420
I mean, I don't even know how to
describe this. 

568
00:37:03,220 --> 00:37:06,540
There's really no tangible way 
to describe this. 

569
00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:10,960
None. 
I mean, we freak out over a 

570
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:15,040
missed meal. 
Our stomach starts and we're 

571
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:19,280
like, I got to get some food, 
but we had to get me some. 

572
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,360
I mean, we'll change 
emotionally, right? 

573
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:26,160
Like we got to get some food. 
This ain't, I am not handling 

574
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,680
this right here. 
Well, then we just call them 

575
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:32,040
food. 
Jesus is separated from the 

576
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,040
Father for the first time ever. 
And we like, well, it was only 

577
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,800
three days. 
Well, I could say that to you if

578
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,160
you don't eat for three days, 
but most of the time it's like 

579
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,520
we got to get some food. 
I mean, you, that was three 

580
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:50,600
hours ago, and you've 
experienced that feeling and fed

581
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,600
that feeling multiple times. 
But yeah, here's the Lord. 

582
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,560
Never. 
I mean, how long does three days

583
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:03,160
seem? 
I don't know. 

584
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:08,800
But in the process, he must 
believe that somebody's coming 

585
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:14,280
to get me. 
My deliverance is coming. 

586
00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:18,760
And did he come? 
I said, did he come? 

587
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,360
He broke him out. 
Now, when the Holy Spirit comes,

588
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:27,480
it's jailbreak, Tom, right? 
I mean, he'll bust out everyone 

589
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:32,240
that is wrongfully accused at 
this point. 

590
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,520
Now, one is Jesus. 
The rest were rightfully 

591
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,680
accused. 
However, they were believing for

592
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,360
redemption and they were in a 
whole nother holding block of 

593
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,680
the prison. 
And as a result of that, they 

594
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:53,280
were given a pardon. 
And he took them all out that 

595
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,520
day. 
I said he took them all out that

596
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,960
day. 
So the Holy Spirit not just only

597
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:03,920
resurrected Jesus, he 
resurrected a whole captive of 

598
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:09,360
captivity, pulls them out, and 
then he is going to dwell in 

599
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:09,560
you. 
Yeah. 

600
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:10,080
Come on. 
Hallelujah. 

601
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,640
I mean, you understand Abraham 
has been dead for a long time. 

602
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,160
I mean, separated from the 
planet, he is away from God. 

603
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,200
He is in paradise. 
He's in the grave. 

604
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:30,680
He is there and the Holy 
Spirit's like, I got you, let's 

605
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,600
go. 
I mean, what situation you in? 

606
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:40,200
I mean, we're talking thousands 
of thousands of years that 

607
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,400
Abraham's like I'm getting out 
today. 

608
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,160
I mean, what you've got going on
that the Holy Ghost in you can't

609
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:49,160
get you out. 
How are you not raining? 

610
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,360
I mean, you're not waiting on 
the Holy Ghost. 

611
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:59,080
He's in you the one who's able 
to raise any dead situation is 

612
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:05,000
in you. 
I wish it was a Hallelujah man 

613
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,720
first John 4/17. 
He says by this love is 

614
00:40:08,720 --> 00:40:11,400
perfected with us so that we may
have confidence in the day of 

615
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:18,840
judgment, because as he is so 
also our where where right here 

616
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,600
on the planet. 
As He is, so are we. 

617
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,480
Well, what is He now? 
He's raised up, seated in 

618
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,880
heavenly places. 
He's sitted at the right hand of

619
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:29,960
the Father. 
We are raised up and seated with

620
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,880
Him as He reigned in this life 
when He walked on the earth. 

621
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,840
We get to reign in this life as 
we walked in the earth because 

622
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,160
we're children of the King. 
We are royalty. 

623
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,040
We are royal bloodline. 
I mean, my gosh, whatever's 

624
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,080
going on in the planet really 
don't matter to us now. 

625
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,080
We're going to do our part, but 
we can always rejoice. 

626
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,840
I have the reigning spirit. 
I'm alive unto God. 

627
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,440
I have the Holy Spirit. 
I have the one who conquers 

628
00:40:54,440 --> 00:41:00,520
death, hell and the grave in me.
He's in me. 

629
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,440
Wow, what a revelation every 
day. 

630
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:10,120
I mean, how does this not make 
you Jack excited now if all you 

631
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,440
want to do is barely get along? 
The only reason this doesn't 

632
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,320
make a believer excited is 
because #1A believer doesn't 

633
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,440
know who they are. 
They believe the religion of 

634
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,840
Jesus, and they just want to 
know where they're going to go 

635
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,360
when they die, and they want the
grace to cover them so they can 

636
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:28,080
live sinful yet still go. 
That's called the Esau effect 

637
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:39,200
and the Esau wants the blessing 
without the responsibility, does

638
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:44,720
not want the accountability of 
the position or the birthright. 

639
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,120
He didn't care about his 
birthright. 

640
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,320
There are many coming and saying
Lord, come into my heart and 

641
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:54,280
save me. 
They don't care about their 

642
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:59,520
birthright. 
They want the blessing and that 

643
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:07,000
is not going to hell because 
Esau, when he does not get the 

644
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:13,160
blessing, although he still 
received an inheritance, had 

645
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:17,640
this in his heart the whole time
after he cried to his father. 

646
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:24,680
Many are crying to the father 
while on the inside saying I 

647
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,040
can't believe they did that to 
me. 

648
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,360
Oh Lord, bless me, bless me, 
bless me. 

649
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,960
Lord, heal me, help me get that 
promotion. 

650
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,680
I tell you, that person over 
there, I just can't stand them. 

651
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,400
I don't even know why they're 
coming to this church. 

652
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:47,160
That's called Esau. 
And it says he sought for 

653
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,240
repentance in tears but could 
not. 

654
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,400
Because the minute dad says, 
son, I've given it to your 

655
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:57,160
older, to your younger brother, 
he leaves the room saying when 

656
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,400
dad dies, I'm going to kill my 
brother. 

657
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,080
Now why does he want to kill 
him? 

658
00:43:04,720 --> 00:43:17,070
So he can take the blessing? 
1st Corinthians 316 says this. 

659
00:43:17,070 --> 00:43:21,390
Do you not know that you are the
temple of God and that the 

660
00:43:21,390 --> 00:43:24,950
Spirit of God dwells in you? 
Do you not know that? 

661
00:43:28,590 --> 00:43:30,590
I mean, really, this should 
become a scripture We should 

662
00:43:30,590 --> 00:43:32,110
probably put on our 
refrigerators. 

663
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:36,320
This is the scripture we need to
put ourselves in remembrance 

664
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,560
because you know, when you're in
the house and you want to, you 

665
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:43,760
know, do things fleshly, do you 
not remember that you're the 

666
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:50,160
temple of the Holy Ghost? 
When you're at work, man, you 

667
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:55,120
want to go off. 
Do you not know that you are the

668
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,920
temple of the Holy Ghost right 
now? 

669
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,080
Because the seed doesn't 
function this way. 

670
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:10,280
He has a reigning spirit. 
He has something else he can tap

671
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:14,360
into or she can tap into. 
But again, the problem is, do 

672
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:18,760
you not know Paul writing to the
church? 

673
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:24,640
Do you not know that you are the
temple of the Spirit of God, 

674
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,520
temple of God, and that the 
Spirit of God dwells within you?

675
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,040
Well, it's because James becomes
our problem. 

676
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,320
James 122 to 25 God's Word 
translation says it this way, 

677
00:44:33,720 --> 00:44:37,840
says do what God's word, do what
God's word says. 

678
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,320
Don't merely listen to it or you
will fool yourselves. 

679
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:47,160
If someone listens to God's Word
but doesn't do what it says, he 

680
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:51,160
is like a person who looks at 
his face in a mirror, studies 

681
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,800
his features, goes away, and 
immediately forgets what he 

682
00:44:54,800 --> 00:45:00,760
looks like. 
However, the person who 

683
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:05,440
continues to study God's perfect
teachings that make people free 

684
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,800
and who remains committed to 
them will be blessed. 

685
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,480
People like that don't merely 
listen and forget. 

686
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,680
They actually do what God's 
teachings say. 

687
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,960
They actually do it. 
I said, well, how's this apply 

688
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,800
to me? 
You're in this room, you're 

689
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:30,840
hearing what I'm saying. 
You know how you should respond 

690
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,480
in situations. 
Yet when you leave, do you do it

691
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,360
his way? 
Because the temple of you're the

692
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,800
temple of the Holy Ghost, and 
the Spirit of God dwells in you,

693
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,000
and he's talking to your spirit 
the only way the Kingdom would 

694
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,560
do it. 
And do you yield to that, or do 

695
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:48,800
you yield to your flesh? 
I've been around some people in 

696
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,760
the 20 years I've planted Anchor
Faith Church, and I've seen them

697
00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:59,200
thinking they have forgotten who
they are because what you're 

698
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,520
saying now is not from 
Scripture. 

699
00:46:01,720 --> 00:46:04,720
You are justified. 
And it's amazing how believers 

700
00:46:04,720 --> 00:46:08,240
will do like the world does. 
They will put Pretty Little 

701
00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:11,000
words to talk about nasty 
things. 

702
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,800
You know what a buzzword is to 
believers right now? 

703
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:24,760
Passion, which really should be 
flesh because a person can be 

704
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:28,200
passionate about something, but 
if it's fleshly, it's fleshly. 

705
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:36,440
That's just fleshly, right? 
So we use these little terms, 

706
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,680
you know, to try to, you know. 
Well, and then why do we say 

707
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:40,920
this? 
We're really good at this one. 

708
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,040
Well, the Lord knows my heart. 
You bet He does. 

709
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,800
You bet He does. 
Now at the end of the day, you 

710
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:53,000
can be here and you can say, 
well, I mean, if you want to 

711
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,440
have a stance on anything in the
natural, I'll always take you to

712
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:02,400
Scripture because I have no 
opinion in the matter. 

713
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,280
But I can give you God's 
reproductive right standard. 

714
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,640
I can do that. 
I can do that. 

715
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:18,880
I can give it to you. 
We use terms like sexual 

716
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,360
freedom. 
That's not in the Kingdom. 

717
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,440
There's only one sexual freedom.
It's between a husband and a 

718
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:26,800
wife in the covenant, a 
marriage. 

719
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:28,960
Everything else is considered 
sin. 

720
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:34,560
They he doesn't even call it. 
There is words like fornication.

721
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:39,520
It's not called making love to 
the one you love outside. 

722
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:43,400
It's called fornication, and if 
you're sleeping with someone 

723
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,320
outside the covenant of your 
marriage, it's called adultery. 

724
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,440
These are the terms that guide 
you, but we don't want to use 

725
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:54,600
those terms because we want to 
use terms that seem less. 

726
00:47:56,280 --> 00:48:04,290
They're softer. 
Now, here's the problem. 

727
00:48:04,290 --> 00:48:07,850
I understand that the world is 
going to make decisions that 

728
00:48:07,850 --> 00:48:14,880
line with sin, and the Bible is 
very clear in the last days, the

729
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:16,600
last. 
These are doctrines of demons. 

730
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:21,520
People in the last days, they're
going to pretty words up to make

731
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,680
them seem like they're less. 
But the reality is we'll never 

732
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:27,360
fix anything until we get to the
root. 

733
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:31,720
It's called sin, and there's 
only one answer to sin, Jesus. 

734
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,160
There's only one answer to sin, 
Jesus. 

735
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,480
Now the problem is, is that when
you talk about Kingdom stuff, 

736
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,360
they try to put you in a box so 
that you look like you're 

737
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,680
against everyone. 
I'm not against anyone. 

738
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,840
People can make mistakes. 
People are going to live away. 

739
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,400
I'm not surprised when people 
are in sin, especially sinners. 

740
00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:56,480
And but I can say, you know 
what, Jesus paid the price and 

741
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,720
you can receive forgiveness. 
And not only can you receive 

742
00:48:59,720 --> 00:49:02,360
forgiveness for anything that 
you've done contrary to the 

743
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,760
Kingdom, but then he'll put a 
spirit in you, a new one that 

744
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,240
looks like him and acts like 
him. 

745
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:08,960
Then he'll put his own spirit in
you. 

746
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,320
And then you will be free from 
having to make the do those 

747
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:24,590
choices ever again. 
But we come to church, we hear, 

748
00:49:25,230 --> 00:49:30,790
and then we walk out and forget 
what we look like In essence. 

749
00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:34,240
Do you not know that you are the
temple of God and that the 

750
00:49:34,240 --> 00:49:40,840
Spirit of God lives within you? 
John 1714 says this. 

751
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,040
He said I've given them your 
word and the world has hated 

752
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,320
them because they are not of the
world. 

753
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,840
Even as I'm not of the world, I 
do not ask you to take them out 

754
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,200
of the world, but to keep them 
from the evil. 1 They are not of

755
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:53,600
the world. 
Even as I'm not of the world, 

756
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,880
Sanctify them in the truth. 
Your word is truth. 

757
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,800
As You sent me into the world, I
also sent them into the world. 

758
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,920
For their sake I sanctify myself
that they themselves may also be

759
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,560
sanctified in truth. 
I do not ask on behalf of these 

760
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:11,360
alone, but for those who also 
who believe in Me through their 

761
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:16,560
word, that they may all be what 
One, even as You, Father, are in

762
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:20,800
me and I in You, that they may 
also be in us, so that the world

763
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,960
may believe that you sent me the
glory which you have given me. 

764
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:27,000
I've given to them the glory I 
said, the glory that you've 

765
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,640
given me. 
I've given to them that they may

766
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:37,120
be what One just as we are one. 
I am them and you and Me, that 

767
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:41,880
they may be perfected in unity, 
so that the world may know that 

768
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:46,440
you sent me and love them even 
as you have loved me. 

769
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,080
So he's saying, listen, I know 
they're in this world, but they 

770
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,080
get to function like I do 
because as I was, so are they. 

771
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:57,040
Now that we've given them my 
spirit, now that they have the 

772
00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,120
glory that I have, what is the 
glory he has? 

773
00:50:59,240 --> 00:51:02,280
The Holy Spirit came upon him. 
He was made perfect. 

774
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:06,360
I mean, he was God in the flesh.
Then we are a new creature in 

775
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,200
Christ. 
We become a child of God. 

776
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,920
Once we make Jesus our Lord, we 
are new species of being in the 

777
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,680
spirit. 
Our spirit man is without sin 

778
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,480
like Jesus. 
Then the Holy Spirit comes upon 

779
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:20,560
us and anoints us like it 
anointed Jesus and we get to 

780
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,880
rule and reign in this life just
like he did. 

781
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:27,040
But Jesus functioned as a king 
on the earth and reigned and had

782
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,160
the reigning spirit about him 
because he only did what the 

783
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,400
Father says. 
And he said that's why we're 

784
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:34,080
one. 
And he's saying now that I've 

785
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,480
given them the new spirit in 
their in their spirit, they're a

786
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,480
new spirit. 
Then I've given them the Holy 

787
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,120
Ghost that lives in them and 
comes upon them. 

788
00:51:43,240 --> 00:51:50,480
Then they can be one like me and
you and do exactly what I say so

789
00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:54,200
that when they're in the earth, 
everyone would say you have a 

790
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,120
reigning spirit about you. 
How is it that you're in a world

791
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,920
you're not even of? 
How do you function like this 

792
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:07,240
instead of being captivated by 
our old thought life? 

793
00:52:07,240 --> 00:52:08,680
We don't think like that 
anymore. 

794
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:10,440
What's it say in First 
Corinthians 212? 

795
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,920
The amplifier says now we have 
not received the Spirit that 

796
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:17,080
belongs to the world, but the 
Holy Spirit who's from God-given

797
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,040
to us, that we might realize and
comprehend and appreciate the 

798
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:23,440
gifts of divine favor and 
blessing so freely and lavishly 

799
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:27,840
bestowed on us by God. 
Y'all doing all right because 

800
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,800
you know what I am not. 
Well that you would have 

801
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,280
Democratic and Republican 
talking points more than the 

802
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:39,680
word of God should not be your 
lifestyle. 

803
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:44,440
You need to know the Kingdom. 
You need to know the Kingdom. 

804
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,880
But we have not the Bible. 
Basic English says it this way, 

805
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,880
but we have not the spirit of 
the world, but the spirit which 

806
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:58,480
comes from God, so that we may 
have knowledge of the things 

807
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,720
which are freely given to us. 
Do you have the spirit of the 

808
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:03,720
world? 
Do you have the spirit of the 

809
00:53:03,720 --> 00:53:04,680
world? 
No. 

810
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,800
Do you have the Spirit of God? 
Amen. 

811
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:10,000
So the Spirit of God doesn't 
think like the spirit of the 

812
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:11,600
world. 
In fact, the contemporary 

813
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:13,040
English version says it this 
way. 

814
00:53:13,240 --> 00:53:18,640
But God has given us His spirit.
That's why we don't think the 

815
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:25,160
same way that the people of this
world think, because God's word 

816
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:30,440
is renewing our minds. 
I said He is renewing our minds.

817
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,600
He's renewing our minds, living 
in a different way. 

818
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:35,640
He's redeemed us from the curse 
of the law. 

819
00:53:35,720 --> 00:53:38,400
He's given us the reigning 
spirit so that we do not 

820
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:42,720
function, process. 
We're not emotional in the 

821
00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:45,280
flesh. 
Our emotions side with the 

822
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:49,520
spirit. 
When our flesh says cry, we jump

823
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:51,800
in the spirit and and walk in 
joy. 

824
00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:58,600
When our flesh laughs at evil 
and things done wrong, our 

825
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,040
spirit mourns and we allow our 
emotions to go to mourning. 

826
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:09,440
Then we're grieved at the things
that grieve the spirit. 

827
00:54:11,240 --> 00:54:14,840
We do not rejoice in 
unrighteousness, but we rejoice 

828
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:19,160
with the truth because we have 
the reigning spirit. 

829
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,000
Timothy 17 says this Young's 
literal translation for God did 

830
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:30,800
not give you a spirit of, but of
and of and of sound mind. 

831
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,280
You have power, love and of 
sound mind. 

832
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,560
And what's happening is, is 
because we aren't listening to 

833
00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:46,320
the Word, we're not allowing the
Word to renew our minds, then 

834
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:51,080
the deceptions of the enemy are 
trying to pull us away. 

835
00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:54,040
As we read that, those of 
Christian faith are going to 

836
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:58,280
fall away and listen to seducing
spirits and doctrines of demons 

837
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:04,200
because the world will use terms
that will seem positive, but 

838
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:11,920
they're actually death. 
I'm not condemning people 

839
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:18,560
because if I did all of you be 
condemned, the majority of you 

840
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:22,640
were fornicators, you were 
adulterers, some were 

841
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,160
homosexuals. 
All of us did things that were 

842
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:27,840
displeasing to the Kingdom of 
God. 

843
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:32,800
But God, I said, but God. 
And it would be a, it would be 

844
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:39,320
malpractice if we did not 
communicate the standard of the 

845
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:43,440
Kingdom. 
Now, at the end of the day, you 

846
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:47,880
can do like you do your doctor 
when the doctor says you have 

847
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:52,040
cancer. 
Now, for most people, they just 

848
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,920
believe that doctor right out 
the gate, especially if it's a 

849
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,680
family doctor, someone who has 
helped them through the law all 

850
00:55:57,680 --> 00:55:59,240
the while, help them with their 
health and stuff. 

851
00:55:59,240 --> 00:56:00,640
And they usually don't question 
that. 

852
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,720
But man, when it comes to the 
church and you have a pastor 

853
00:56:03,720 --> 00:56:05,600
that's helped you walk through 
trials and all of a sudden say, 

854
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:08,560
man, your thoughts are cancerous
right now, I'm going to go get a

855
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:09,960
second opinion. 
Go get one. 

856
00:56:10,720 --> 00:56:14,320
Go find another church and get 
the other opinion because you 

857
00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:16,960
can probably find a pastor that 
doesn't want to talk to you 

858
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,960
about your cancer and let you 
die in your cancer and then at 

859
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,760
your funeral say, oh, you know, 
they really love the Lord. 

860
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,440
All the while I knew that they 
had offended what they were 

861
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,720
offended with someone and it had
a root of bitterness and it's 

862
00:56:27,720 --> 00:56:33,320
ultimately what killed them. 
But I can't say that that's even

863
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:43,190
if they know it. 
It's amazing. 

864
00:56:43,190 --> 00:56:46,270
We don't argue with our dentist.
We don't argue with our doctor. 

865
00:56:46,270 --> 00:56:52,240
We don't argue with our we may 
argue with our boss some, but 

866
00:56:52,240 --> 00:56:55,080
usually those other, you know, 
mechanics, those things, we tend

867
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,920
to take their word at face 
value, But then the one that 

868
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:04,000
prays for you spends time giving
the word to you. 

869
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:08,840
Then when they're like, man, 
hey, this is this action is not 

870
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:11,600
right. 
Then all of a sudden we get 

871
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:14,360
super spiritual. 
You're on the same plane. 

872
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:25,840
That's not a reigning spirit. 
First John 44 last Scripture is 

873
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:30,880
this you are from God, little 
children, and have overcome 

874
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:31,960
them. 
What have you done? 

875
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:37,040
Come on, what have you done? 
Because greater is he who was in

876
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:47,120
you than he who was in. 
First of all, for most 

877
00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:54,560
believers, most, they'll live 
their whole Christian life never

878
00:57:54,560 --> 00:58:01,640
dealing with the devil. 
Most will live their whole 

879
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,840
Christian life never dealing 
with the devil, because they 

880
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:06,960
never overcome their personal 
flesh. 

881
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,240
And the devil doesn't have to 
come see you when you let your 

882
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:13,840
flesh win. 
Never has to come see you 

883
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:20,600
because you were his seed. 
I said you were his seed. 

884
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:27,720
You were his seed in the spirit.
You performed your that function

885
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:32,400
in your soul realm through the 
way you thought, behaved, acted,

886
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:35,960
spoke. 
You performed it in your 

887
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:40,040
physical body by the things you 
put in it and the things you did

888
00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:47,120
with it. 
But God, when the call to come 

889
00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:52,200
into the Kingdom came, you got 
to the cross with your body, 

890
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:58,800
your soul, and your spirit. 
And you said, I want to come in.

891
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:03,400
And Jesus says you can, but the 
spirits in you, the spirit in 

892
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:06,520
you cannot. 
So in order for you to go 

893
00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,680
through the threshold of the 
door, and Jesus is the door, he 

894
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:11,800
said, I'm going to shove that 
spirit out of you. 

895
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,440
And the minute you enter and I'm
going to put a new one in it, 

896
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,680
then I'm going to put my spirit 
in it. 

897
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:23,840
But the problem is you're 
bringing in remnants that were 

898
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,920
from that other seed. 
It's still in your mind, it's in

899
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:31,600
your emotions, it's in your 
decision making, and it's even 

900
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:39,440
screaming in your body. 
But the spirit I've put in you 

901
00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:42,520
is way more powerful than the 
remnants of those seeds. 

902
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:49,080
Way more powerful that if you 
yield to it, Oh my gosh, it will

903
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,960
clean up your mind quicker than 
you could even imagine. 

904
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:55,440
It will get your body right and 
restore your body like never 

905
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,200
before. 
But you've got to yield. 

906
00:59:57,280 --> 01:00:01,960
You have to yield to the spirit.
You have to allow the spirit to 

907
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:05,200
reign in you. 
You have to do it. 

908
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:09,480
And he says, now listen, you 
overcome, because even when the 

909
01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:13,800
devil comes attacking you, clean
yourself, spirit, our soul and 

910
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,080
body. 
And the devil starts to show 

911
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:17,360
back up. 
Won't matter. 

912
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:22,280
It won't matter because I could 
do you like I did my own son. 

913
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:26,840
I led him into the wilderness to
be tempted of the devil because 

914
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,240
in him was the ability to 
conquer him. 

915
01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:31,040
The whole it was never even a 
fight. 

916
01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:37,760
I said it was never even a fight
because he had the reigning 

917
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,680
spirit. 
He could always stop the enemy 

918
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:47,600
at the temptation and never let 
him pass the temptation stage. 

919
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:53,800
And that's what you possess. 
You possess the same spirit that

920
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:58,920
can cause you to never pass the 
temptation stage of the enemy's 

921
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:00,160
attacks. 
Never. 

922
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:03,200
The temptation comes. 
I got that. 

923
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:07,120
I'll take that thought. 
It's gone. 

924
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:09,640
I beat it up, throw it out. 
I can run it. 

925
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:11,680
I can run its course. 
I get it out of here. 

926
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,800
It doesn't own me. 
I do not have to do it. 

927
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:16,480
Are you hearing me? 
Amen. 

928
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:20,040
I don't have to follow that way.
I don't have to live that way. 

929
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,440
I have the reigning spirit. 
I've been delivered. 

930
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,680
I take every thought of the when
The deceptive thoughts, the 

931
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,960
seducing thoughts, the doctrines
of demons, the twisting of the 

932
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:31,000
Word all. 
I can take them all captive. 

933
01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:33,480
I can cast them down. 
I clearly hear the Spirit of the

934
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:34,960
Lord. 
I hear the Word of God. 

935
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,200
I have the clarity. 
I'm not subject to it. 

936
01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:38,760
I'm not one. 
Cities that are going to be 

937
01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:41,960
moved to the wayside fall away. 
I have the reigning spirit. 

938
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,040
I've done the work. 
I do the work. 

939
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,680
I cast down my thoughts. 
I crucify my flesh. 

940
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:49,320
I submit to the Word. 
I have the reigning spirit. 

941
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:51,440
And it was powerful enough to 
raise up God. 

942
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:54,480
Anything dead in my life, He can
resurrect it to life. 

943
01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:57,200
He can resurrect my thoughts. 
He can resurrect my body. 

944
01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:00,360
He can resurrect anything so 
that I live the fullness of 

945
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,520
Christ and reign in this life 
right now.
