- 0:31Speaker 1: a Friday, so we switch gears and we call this
- 0:34Speaker 1: one Authentic Imitationlogy. This is episode I believe number ninety three,
- 0:40Speaker 1: ninety three. We've been putting in work on these Authentic
- 0:43Speaker 1: Imitationology sessions. So we're here again. All glory to Guy right.
- 0:48Speaker 1: By the grace of God, we're here, and I'm grateful
- 0:51Speaker 1: that you took time to come through and to check
- 0:55Speaker 1: me out and to see what the Word of God
- 0:57Speaker 1: has for us today. Good morning, Sister Joanne, I see you.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Good morning, God bless you. Welcome back to the Morning Devo.
- 1:02Speaker 1: So every Friday we get into Authentic Imitationology, and we've
- 1:06Speaker 1: been doing it for ninety over ninety times we've been
- 1:09Speaker 1: getting together on Fridays, Amen to experience the authenticness and
- 1:15Speaker 1: the authenticity of imitating. Right, the most successful person who
- 1:20Speaker 1: has ever lived in all of history, the Lord Jesus. Amen.
- 1:24Speaker 1: We're going to imitate him because he is the living Word.
- 1:26Speaker 1: So when we imitate God, we're imitating the word of God.
- 1:30Speaker 1: We're imitating Christ. Amen, And we're being who God called
- 1:34Speaker 1: us to be, according to his word, according to his purpose,
- 1:37Speaker 1: according to his plan. Amen. He's an eternal life giver.
- 1:42Speaker 1: He doesn't just do things halfway. He does completely complete works. Right.
- 1:48Speaker 1: His forgiveness is complete, salvation is complete. Right, His eternity
- 1:52Speaker 1: is complete, His eternal life in us and through us
- 1:55Speaker 1: is complete. His word is complete. He completed the law. Amen.
- 2:00Speaker 1: He's an amazing God. So today we're going to talk
- 2:04Speaker 1: about maintaining an eternal perspective in our thinking. The way
- 2:11Speaker 1: we think we shouldn't be thinking so much on temporal things,
- 2:16Speaker 1: temporary things. We should be having a mindset right and
- 2:20Speaker 1: focused on eternity, because right now this is a little
- 2:24Speaker 1: like not even a blip of all eternity. Like, right now,
- 2:29Speaker 1: I've been on this planet over fifty years, Amen, and
- 2:32Speaker 1: that's like like like a blip in time when it
- 2:36Speaker 1: comes to eternity. That's like a millisecond, less than a
- 2:40Speaker 1: millisecond whatever. That is the shortest amount of time you
- 2:44Speaker 1: could live one hundred years, that's just seconds like this.
- 2:48Speaker 1: It's nothing compared to eternity. But we live a full
- 2:52Speaker 1: life because we have a full presence of God living
- 2:56Speaker 1: within us if you're born again, so we live with
- 2:59Speaker 1: eternity in mind, not just on temporary things. So I'm
- 3:02Speaker 1: calling this one eternal perspective. I hope I spell that right.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Eternal perspective. Here on the morning, Devo, We're gonna start
- 3:10Speaker 1: in Collisions, chapter number three, Verse number two. Collasians, Chapter
- 3:15Speaker 1: number three, Verse number two, maintaining and eternal perspective in
- 3:21Speaker 1: our thinking. Whatever happens here usually comes out of here, right,
- 3:25Speaker 1: And whatever comes out of here usually we start acting upon.
- 3:29Speaker 1: The more we ponder, the more we think about things, Amen,
- 3:32Speaker 1: the more we want to do those things. So if
- 3:34Speaker 1: we're focused on temporary, temporary things and focus on material things, money, fame, fortune,
- 3:42Speaker 1: if we focused on only those things that are temporary
- 3:44Speaker 1: here today and gone tomorrow, then our actions are gonna
- 3:48Speaker 1: be the same. But if we focus on eternal things, Amen,
- 3:51Speaker 1: we're gonna stay focused on the perfective of our faith,
- 3:53Speaker 1: the author and finish of our faith, the one who
- 3:56Speaker 1: is eternal. His word is eternal, his truth is eternal.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Focus on those things and our life will go in
- 4:02Speaker 1: a direction that will be pleasing to the Lord. Right
- 4:05Speaker 1: pleasing to the Lord, and it will really be satisfying
- 4:08Speaker 1: to our soul. A man, no matter how much or
- 4:11Speaker 1: how less we have, we have it all, and we
- 4:13Speaker 1: have Christ in us, the hope of glory. So let's
- 4:16Speaker 1: go for it. Amen, and man, this is good, this
- 4:20Speaker 1: is good. It's a good topic to get into to
- 4:22Speaker 1: spark up the weekend. Amen. If this is your end
- 4:25Speaker 1: of the work week for you, praise God. If it's
- 4:28Speaker 1: continuing throughout the weekend like me, Amen, praise God to
- 4:33Speaker 1: we're here and we're together and that's what really matters, right,
- 4:36Speaker 1: and we're gonna support each other all through the weekend
- 4:39Speaker 1: so that way, no one gets unnoticed, no voice gets unheard,
- 4:43Speaker 1: or no story is not listening to. Amen. We're mindful
- 4:48Speaker 1: of that here on this platform. And everybody counts. Everybody
- 4:52Speaker 1: matters to the Lord. Amen. Your life matters, My life matters.
- 4:55Speaker 1: We all matter to God, and he wants us to
- 4:58Speaker 1: elevate us and excel our way of thinking and elevate
- 5:01Speaker 1: our way of thinking. The Bible actually says that if
- 5:04Speaker 1: you're in Christ, you'll already seed it in heavenly places,
- 5:08Speaker 1: where eternity rules, where eternity reigns. Amen. And we're seated
- 5:12Speaker 1: in the heavily places looking down at the temporal things
- 5:15Speaker 1: and looking up at the eternal one. How about that?
- 5:18Speaker 1: So let's pray first. After we pray, we'll share us
- 5:20Speaker 1: out for like sixty seconds. And after those sixty seconds,
- 5:23Speaker 1: when we come through on the other side, a man
- 5:26Speaker 1: will be In Colligal's chapter number three, verse number two,
- 5:29Speaker 1: I'm calling this one eternal perspective. Let's pray. Father, I
- 5:33Speaker 1: thank you that you have set eternity in our hearts,
- 5:37Speaker 1: that you have written your law already in our hearts.
- 5:40Speaker 1: And we know what's right and we know what's wrong.
- 5:42Speaker 1: We know the difference because every one of us was
- 5:45Speaker 1: created and born with the conscience. Thank you, Lord God
- 5:48Speaker 1: for your love, your grace, and your mercy, your complete forgiveness,

- 7:02Speaker 1: of this mic in a powerful name of Jesus. I
- 7:04Speaker 1: prayed this faith with an eternal perspective in Jesus name.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Amen and Amen, Man, Well, God bless you, good morning,
- 7:12Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Morning Devo, and thank you for
- 7:15Speaker 1: coming through to the Authentic Commentationology session. This is episode
- 7:19Speaker 1: number ninety three. Can you believe it? The law of
- 7:21Speaker 1: the Spirit gives life right and the law of the
- 7:25Speaker 1: Lord what shows us the death part of it? Right?
- 7:29Speaker 1: And deny it. That's why we're not bound by the
- 7:32Speaker 1: law anymore according to the New Covenant. Right, let's go
- 7:35Speaker 1: forward sixty seconds. Help me share this out and when
- 7:37Speaker 1: we come back, we'll get right into Collazins chapter number three,
- 7:42Speaker 1: Verse number two. I'll be right back. Wow. Sharing this
- 9:17Speaker 1: is tough in us. Sixty seconds. Amen, it's a lot,
- 9:21Speaker 1: but praise God got people to share with. Amen. And
- 9:24Speaker 1: I know that God guides there are people to him. Amen.
- 9:29Speaker 1: He is the one who draws the people onto himself.
- 9:34Speaker 1: So if you found yourself on this morning, Devo, if
- 9:36Speaker 1: you find yourself in this Eternal Perspective session, Amen, there's
- 9:41Speaker 1: a reason for that. Don't take it lightly. This is
- 9:44Speaker 1: an open invitation for all those who are seeking truth,
- 9:47Speaker 1: not just happiness. But if they're seeking joy, you'll find
- 9:50Speaker 1: the truth and joy in the Lord Jesus. You'll find
- 9:53Speaker 1: the truth and joy in God's eternal perspective, in his
- 9:57Speaker 1: word and his living word. We serve a God who
- 10:00Speaker 1: is alive, not a God who is a dead corpse. Amen.
- 10:03Speaker 1: I don't know who that's for. But be encouraged that
- 10:06Speaker 1: we're on the right path when it comes to the
- 10:08Speaker 1: Lord Jesus Christ and what he can do in your
- 10:10Speaker 1: life today, right now, asap, right in your life, or
- 10:14Speaker 1: when you put your hope, faith and trust in him.
- 10:17Speaker 1: He's in an awesome God, an amazing God of forgiving God,
- 10:20Speaker 1: a God of grace, a God of mercy, all powerful,
- 10:22Speaker 1: omnipresent God. Amen. Yet although he's almighty, he still has
- 10:27Speaker 1: a gentle spirit. And he doesn't force his way over
- 10:30Speaker 1: you and in you and through you. Amen. He doesn't
- 10:33Speaker 1: force you to believe in him. This is a choice
- 10:36Speaker 1: we make a man. Whether we choose life or death
- 10:39Speaker 1: is our choice. But we speak. We have the power
- 10:41Speaker 1: of speech. Whether we speak life or the same type,
- 10:44Speaker 1: we can speak death. But you know, we're all about
- 10:47Speaker 1: life giving messages over here all about speaking life into
- 10:51Speaker 1: other people, not speaking death. Only thing we speak death
- 10:54Speaker 1: over is demanded forces the devil, you know, evil and
- 10:58Speaker 1: things like that. Hate what God hates, and we love
- 11:01Speaker 1: what God loves. We hate who God hates, and we
- 11:04Speaker 1: love who God loves. That's where we stand here, as
- 11:08Speaker 1: soone is with a zea org celeerate on network. Amen.
- 11:11Speaker 1: So let's go for it. Speak Man of God. I'm trying. Amen.
- 11:14Speaker 1: We're gonna speak some word as soon as I start
- 11:17Speaker 1: reading it as well. Amen. And we're gonna let the
- 11:19Speaker 1: word of God do the judging of our hearts, the
- 11:22Speaker 1: transformation of our minds. Amen. God will not violate our will. No,
- 11:27Speaker 1: he won't. Amen. If he did, then he would be
- 11:29Speaker 1: a dictator and it won't show love. God gives us
- 11:32Speaker 1: a choice. Amen. Without choice, there is no love. If
- 11:36Speaker 1: you had no choice other than to follow God, you
- 11:39Speaker 1: had to do follow Jesus. You had to do this,
- 11:41Speaker 1: and you had to do that. You'll be in a
- 11:43Speaker 1: religious system that's not a loving system. You'll be just
- 11:46Speaker 1: in a religion and you won't have that eternal perspective
- 11:49Speaker 1: that we're gonna see in the scriptures today. Amen. Let's
- 11:52Speaker 1: go for it. Where are we where is my curser? Amen,
- 11:57Speaker 1: it disappears it's up here, and let's go for or
- 12:00Speaker 1: eternal perspective. A man on today's Authentic Imitationology, session number
- 12:06Speaker 1: ninety three. I can't believe it, so we've been putting
- 12:09Speaker 1: work in this for a while. Collation, Chapter three, verse
- 12:12Speaker 1: number two. Set your mind and keep focused habitually on
- 12:18Speaker 1: the things above, the heavenly things, not on things that
- 12:24Speaker 1: are on the earth, which have only temple value. I
- 12:29Speaker 1: when to read this again. Amen, set your mind and
- 12:33Speaker 1: keep focused on habitually on the things above. Have a
- 12:40Speaker 1: holy habit, a heavenly mentality, a habit to see things
- 12:44Speaker 1: that are above, not things that are on the earth
- 12:48Speaker 1: which have only templele value. They are valuable, absolutely, God
- 12:52Speaker 1: values all his creation right. But what we have on
- 12:57Speaker 1: this earth is temporary. So a lot of people are
- 13:00Speaker 1: putting a lot of investment in their things that they
- 13:05Speaker 1: own on this earth. Cars, homes, jewelry, money, yachts, boats,
- 13:14Speaker 1: vacation homes. They're putting all their efforts and all their
- 13:19Speaker 1: energy into things that are temporary. Now, I'm not saying
- 13:21Speaker 1: just stay home and do nothing and be lazy. That's
- 13:24Speaker 1: not the spirit that God wants us to move in.
- 13:26Speaker 1: He wants to move in Holy Spirit. God. He wants
- 13:29Speaker 1: us to move and excel and experience victory over all
- 13:33Speaker 1: parts of our lives financially, relationally a man. But he
- 13:37Speaker 1: doesn't want us to stay focused on the things that
- 13:39Speaker 1: are here today and gone tomorrow. He wants us to
- 13:43Speaker 1: have an eternal perspective according to His plan and purpose
- 13:47Speaker 1: and his word over our lives. And because what he
- 13:50Speaker 1: wants is the best thing we could have. Amen, we
- 13:54Speaker 1: should have the best thing that God wants for our lives.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Let's be who God called this to be. There is
- 14:01Speaker 1: no way, no way, no way that we're gonna stay
- 14:04Speaker 1: stuck here on this planet. We are pilgrims walking through
- 14:08Speaker 1: so the blessed life that we do have. Amen. Yes,
- 14:11Speaker 1: we are blessed. We're not better than anyone else. We
- 14:15Speaker 1: are all blessed people, and we have a better perspective
- 14:19Speaker 1: and a better covenant than everybody else. And that's why
- 14:22Speaker 1: if you're not born again, you're walking around looking at
- 14:25Speaker 1: the born again Christians, looking at who do they think
- 14:27Speaker 1: they are? Well, we know not only think we know
- 14:31Speaker 1: who we are in Christ right, we are a holy priesthood.
- 14:35Speaker 1: We are the body of Christ. We are the moving
- 14:38Speaker 1: temples around this earth. We are the Church. We are
- 14:41Speaker 1: the bride of Christ. We are anointed, appointed, separated, sanctified,
- 14:47Speaker 1: and made known because God has made us known. We're
- 14:50Speaker 1: not hiding out. Some of my brothers and sisters like
- 14:53Speaker 1: to hide out in churches and they never leave the
- 14:56Speaker 1: full walls of their church, and they never preach the
- 14:58Speaker 1: gospel to anybody. Think, Hey, this is the way it is.
- 15:01Speaker 1: We got to hide out. We have to be like
- 15:03Speaker 1: live below our means and all that. I understand that
- 15:07Speaker 1: perspective and everything, but that's not an eternal perspective. We're
- 15:11Speaker 1: not called to hide. We're called to shine our light.
- 15:14Speaker 1: We're called to go and make people know the facts
- 15:17Speaker 1: about the Lord Jesus Christ. We're going to preach the
- 15:20Speaker 1: gospel to the four corners of this earth. We're gonna
- 15:24Speaker 1: make disciples. We're gonna baptize people in the name of
- 15:27Speaker 1: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Because that's an eternal perspective, right,
- 15:31Speaker 1: We're not holding onto the little things that we have
- 15:33Speaker 1: on this earth. You give to this ministry a man,
- 15:36Speaker 1: you can ask anybody. You give to this ministry. We
- 15:39Speaker 1: give back out to the community we help other ministries
- 15:42Speaker 1: and help other families get to a place of success. Amen.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Whether I'm successful in areas or not, that's not the case.
- 15:51Speaker 1: I'm not focused on what I'm getting now, Amen, I'm
- 15:54Speaker 1: focused on what I can give in so a seede
- 15:56Speaker 1: of eternal life and other families life. Ask somebody, if
- 15:59Speaker 1: you don't believe that in my life, people could testify
- 16:02Speaker 1: and so, yeah, he'll give because he was freely given,
- 16:06Speaker 1: so he freely gives out. And that's the way we
- 16:08Speaker 1: all should be as born again believers, because we don't
- 16:10Speaker 1: have a temporal perspective, we have any internal perspective. Therefore,
- 16:15Speaker 1: be not conformed to this fallen world, but be transformed
- 16:20Speaker 1: by the renewing of what's up here our mind. Yes, absolutely, amen, Amen.
- 16:27Speaker 1: And if God is speaking through me, Amen, it is
- 16:29Speaker 1: only because Holy Spirit is present, Holy Spirit is active.
- 16:33Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is speaking, and you know we have to.
- 16:36Speaker 1: We could grieve the Holy Spirit first and foremost, and
- 16:39Speaker 1: we won't allow him to do what he's doing, Amen,
- 16:42Speaker 1: and our lives what he wants to do in our lives.
- 16:44Speaker 1: We could grieve Holy Spirit. I'm trying not to grieve
- 16:47Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit. I'm trying to move forward in the
- 16:49Speaker 1: things that he has, because if he has something good
- 16:52Speaker 1: for me, I know one hundred percent he has something
- 16:55Speaker 1: good for you. Amen. God is a good god, no
- 16:57Speaker 1: respect of persons. He's not going to do things only
- 17:01Speaker 1: for me that he won't do for anybody else. A man,
- 17:04Speaker 1: his word is open, it's an open test, is an
- 17:07Speaker 1: open book. Test a man read the word of God,
- 17:10Speaker 1: Test out the word of God. Apply the word of
- 17:12Speaker 1: God in your life, and you'll get this eternal perspective.
- 17:16Speaker 1: You won't want temporary things. You don't want quick fixes. Amen.
- 17:20Speaker 1: You don't want just happiness. You want the joy of
- 17:23Speaker 1: the Lord, which is our strength. By the way, you
- 17:25Speaker 1: don't want just happiness. And then if happiness is based
- 17:29Speaker 1: upon circumstances, if anything gets out of line in the
- 17:33Speaker 1: circumstances of your life or my life. Amen, Now we're
- 17:37Speaker 1: not happy anymore. If the kids are not listening, if
- 17:40Speaker 1: our marriage is not working, if the money is not
- 17:44Speaker 1: building up in our bank accounts. Right, if arguments that
- 17:48Speaker 1: we want to argue about we don't win. Now we're
- 17:50Speaker 1: no longer happy. But joy is everlasting. Joy is eternal.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Joy is what was given from the father above given
- 17:59Speaker 1: to his children. Amen. And the joy is our strength.
- 18:03Speaker 1: That's why, ladies and gentlemen, the devil, the enemy of
- 18:06Speaker 1: our lives, wants to attack our joy. He wants to snatch,
- 18:10Speaker 1: he wants to kill, steal, and destroy our joy. He
- 18:14Speaker 1: doesn't want us to have hope. He doesn't want us
- 18:16Speaker 1: to read the word. He doesn't want us to get
- 18:18Speaker 1: into congregations who are holy goes filled. He doesn't want
- 18:21Speaker 1: us to get around people who are positive. He wants
- 18:23Speaker 1: us to stay stuck and temporal thinking and temporary things
- 18:27Speaker 1: that don't manifest, nothing but pain and guilt and shame
- 18:33Speaker 1: and get us depressed and all that. He wants to
- 18:35Speaker 1: nothing good for me, nothing good for you. And newsflash,
- 18:40Speaker 1: he doesn't want anything good for those who serve him either.
- 18:43Speaker 1: He hates all of God's creation. So wake up, sleeper.
- 18:48Speaker 1: If you're in a congregation that bleeds doctrines of demons
- 18:53Speaker 1: and you're promoting all kinds of things that are false,
- 18:56Speaker 1: and you're unifying yourself with things that are not true
- 19:00Speaker 1: and things that are temporary and things that are not
- 19:02Speaker 1: pleasing God, run out of there. You're not living, you're
- 19:05Speaker 1: actually dying in a false religion. Get out of there, amen,
- 19:10Speaker 1: do it, for yourself, your family, your friends. Get out
- 19:13Speaker 1: of that situation and get connected to a Bible believing
- 19:17Speaker 1: fellowship that has an eternal perspective, and we believe in
- 19:21Speaker 1: Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and the Holy Spirit.
- 19:25Speaker 1: God will guide you into the right path, in the
- 19:27Speaker 1: right direction, and will lead you into all truth and
- 19:30Speaker 1: teach you all truth and remind you of the Word
- 19:32Speaker 1: that has eternal perspective, that has eternity set. Amen, not
- 19:38Speaker 1: temporary things. Not temporary things. Those things are here today,
- 19:42Speaker 1: gone tomorrow. Money man, you get it. It leaves the
- 19:46Speaker 1: same way the Bible actually says, it grows wings and
- 19:49Speaker 1: flies away. Don't set your life on those things. Amen.
- 19:52Speaker 1: It's not worth it. Amen. We need it, but it's
- 19:55Speaker 1: not worth it. I'm sorry, Manuel, I didn't see the
- 19:57Speaker 1: rest of your comments here. Let me get some of
- 19:59Speaker 1: your comments, well said, man of God. I was telling
- 20:03Speaker 1: my brother yesterday how I grieved Holy Spirit and paid
- 20:07Speaker 1: for it emotionally and spiritually. Amen. The reason why we
- 20:11Speaker 1: pay when we grieve the Holy Spirit is because we
- 20:13Speaker 1: know Holy Spirit it only wants things that are good
- 20:16Speaker 1: in our lives. He loves us, He wants this to
- 20:19Speaker 1: be in victory, not in defeat. But once we turn
- 20:22Speaker 1: our mind off to other things that are temporal, sin
- 20:26Speaker 1: is temporary, right, Finances are temporary. Relationships even here on
- 20:32Speaker 1: earth for temporary. Unless you have a relationship with someone
- 20:36Speaker 1: who has an eternal perspective, someone who's born again, we
- 20:39Speaker 1: will be together for all eternity. But for those who
- 20:42Speaker 1: are just thinking about themselves that are selfish, We've been
- 20:44Speaker 1: speaking about this for weeks already. Those people are denied
- 20:48Speaker 1: access into the Kingdom of Heaven because of their own choice,
- 20:52Speaker 1: not because God rejected them. It's because they rejected God.
- 20:56Speaker 1: It's the opposite. People think, oh, God, he won't want
- 20:59Speaker 1: me and his kingdom. No, you don't want to be
- 21:01Speaker 1: in the kingdom of God. Let's get these the facts right.
- 21:05Speaker 1: You don't want to be in the kingdom of God.
- 21:06Speaker 1: You don't want heaven. You say, oh, why would God
- 21:10Speaker 1: allow all evil to happen if he's a good God?
- 21:13Speaker 1: Because evil people are doing evil things that we don't
- 21:16Speaker 1: have an evil God. We have a good God. So
- 21:18Speaker 1: God is not promoting evil a man. Evil people are
- 21:22Speaker 1: promoting evil deeds and they doing through things, and then
- 21:25Speaker 1: people are looking at them and saying, why would God
- 21:28Speaker 1: allow that? Or why would God allow them to live? Amen?
- 21:31Speaker 1: Because if it's grace and he's so loving, so God
- 21:35Speaker 1: so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son,
- 21:38Speaker 1: that whosoever listen believes in him shall not perish, but
- 21:43Speaker 1: have eternal life, not temporary life. We're not serving a
- 21:48Speaker 1: temporary God. This is not a quick fix for eternity.
- 21:51Speaker 1: This is a guaranteed fix for eternal life. It's an
- 21:55Speaker 1: eternal perspective. And we got to get our minds right
- 21:58Speaker 1: a man, and think about what God is doing. He
- 22:00Speaker 1: wants us to think we are missing out on life. Yes,
- 22:04Speaker 1: the helper, Holy Spirit God, Amen, man goes on tear.
- 22:07Speaker 1: That's right, Amen. I'm trying to nail the flesh and
- 22:12Speaker 1: nail my temporary ideas to the coffin, nail it to
- 22:16Speaker 1: the cross where it belongs to let those things stay stuck.
- 22:19Speaker 1: But my mindset, man, I'm focused on the author Perfector
- 22:24Speaker 1: Do I get it right all the time? Absolutely not.
- 22:27Speaker 1: I'm not expected to get it right all the time,
- 22:29Speaker 1: And you're not expected to get it right all the
- 22:31Speaker 1: time because you're not perfect. We're being perfected. The only
- 22:34Speaker 1: one who is perfect is the one who lives within us.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, which is the hope of glory. The world
- 22:40Speaker 1: is looking for hope, and we have the hope of glory.
- 22:43Speaker 1: So don't deny people access to the gospel message. If
- 22:48Speaker 1: you've been denying or you've been afraid to share your
- 22:52Speaker 1: story or share the gospel. Amen. God didn't give us
- 22:55Speaker 1: the spirit of fear, So recognize what spirit is time
- 22:58Speaker 1: to tell you to be to be quiet, it's not
- 23:01Speaker 1: the spirit of God. Spirit of fear doesn't come from God.
- 23:04Speaker 1: We have a spirit of boldness. We're being encouraged to
- 23:08Speaker 1: be courageous. All through the scriptures. God would use the
- 23:11Speaker 1: least of those to reach the most of those. Amen.
- 23:15Speaker 1: And we are focused on the perfector. I say that
- 23:18Speaker 1: all the time because if you lose your perspective, if
- 23:21Speaker 1: you lose your sight and you start looking at things
- 23:23Speaker 1: around you, you will be depressed. If you watch the
- 23:28Speaker 1: news every single day and watching what goes around around
- 23:31Speaker 1: the world locally, nationally, internationally, you'd be like, man, there's
- 23:36Speaker 1: no hope. It's all gloom and doom. But that's not true.
- 23:39Speaker 1: We have a hope in Christ. We know what happens
- 23:42Speaker 1: at the end. It's already been prophesied that this world
- 23:45Speaker 1: system is going to get worse and worse and worse.
- 23:48Speaker 1: All my brothers and sisters who believe in the revival coming. Amen,
- 23:52Speaker 1: Praise God. You believe that. But where is that in
- 23:55Speaker 1: the scripture? When I read the scripture, I'm like, oh,
- 23:58Speaker 1: it's about to go down. Jesus said in this world
- 24:01Speaker 1: we will have trials and tribulation. So we're already having
- 24:04Speaker 1: the trials and tribulation. Right, It's a prophecy. It's a
- 24:06Speaker 1: promise from God through Jesus. He said it. The revival part,
- 24:10Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if that's wishful thinking whatever.
- 24:14Speaker 1: I'm not a revivalist, amen, and I don't want to
- 24:16Speaker 1: go down that trail. But listen, no disrespect for the
- 24:18Speaker 1: revivalists out there. Just show me a man, encourage a brother.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Where is this revival coming from? And I'm not talking
- 24:25Speaker 1: about personal revivals. When you're saved, you're revived because once
- 24:29Speaker 1: we were blind and dead. Now we're alive in Christ.
- 24:32Speaker 1: So that's an internal revival. We have revived. Amen. We're
- 24:36Speaker 1: not dead, We're only dead to the law of sin
- 24:39Speaker 1: and death. Amen. The law is still present, the law
- 24:43Speaker 1: is still active in people's lives. But we're dead to
- 24:45Speaker 1: the law of Moses. Amen. And now we have Christ
- 24:48Speaker 1: and his law. Man. So which one we were doing here?
- 24:53Speaker 1: Some people say, oh, you have both. You got to
- 24:55Speaker 1: be under the law of Moses and the law of
- 24:57Speaker 1: the Lord. I think, respect that's nonsense. We have been
- 25:01Speaker 1: better covenant. The Bible says, new covenant. Do is study
- 25:05Speaker 1: in the book of Hebrews. Do a studying Apostle Paul's
- 25:07Speaker 1: life and what he said out of his mouth. Do
- 25:09Speaker 1: a study on Jesus' life and the way he had
- 25:11Speaker 1: a kingdom perspective. And he is the perfector, Amen, And
- 25:15Speaker 1: he's the fulfillment of the law. Therefore he says, a
- 25:18Speaker 1: new law I give to you. If how is the
- 25:21Speaker 1: Lord Jesus giving a new law, if we're still bound
- 25:24Speaker 1: by the old laws, think about it. Be your perspective.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Let it be of eternity, not of temporary stuff, not
- 25:34Speaker 1: of things are in the past. Amen. You can study
- 25:37Speaker 1: moses life and study law. Amen, and you get to realize, wow, yeah,
- 25:43Speaker 1: I can't complete not even one of these. And the
- 25:45Speaker 1: Bible actually says, if you break one, you're breaking them all.
- 25:49Speaker 1: So imagine what kind of pressure you'll be under to
- 25:52Speaker 1: you know, not break any of the laws of God,
- 25:56Speaker 1: you would be in big trouble. And then the only
- 26:02Speaker 1: one who completed and fulfilled the law is one, the
- 26:05Speaker 1: one Jesus, the anointed one is Shuahamashiyak, the anointed one,
- 26:10Speaker 1: the Christ, the Messiah. Second Corinthians shot the number four,
- 26:16Speaker 1: verse eighteen. Second Corinthians shot the number four, verse eighteen.
- 26:20Speaker 1: The Bible says, so we fix our eyes not on
- 26:25Speaker 1: what is seen, but on what is unseen. I'm not
- 26:29Speaker 1: making this up. I know it sounds like, oh, you know,
- 26:32Speaker 1: it sounds like a riddle. No, it's not a riddle.
- 26:34Speaker 1: It's the word of God. The apostle was feel inspired
- 26:37Speaker 1: and couraged, and he endorsed. He was endorsed by God
- 26:41Speaker 1: himself to speak what he spoke. But what is seen
- 26:45Speaker 1: is what temporary, But what is unseen is eternal. Now
- 26:51Speaker 1: this is not as difficult as you might think. Do
- 26:54Speaker 1: we see God? Do we serve a God who's visible?
- 26:58Speaker 1: We definitely know, serve idols and statue And we don't
- 27:00Speaker 1: pray the statues or idols some people do want Again, Christians,
- 27:04Speaker 1: don't we have an invisible God who reveals himself through creation,
- 27:09Speaker 1: who revealed himself in history through the Lord Jesus, who
- 27:12Speaker 1: reveals himself by the power of his signs, miracles, and wonders.
- 27:17Speaker 1: When you look at the sky, when look at the stars, Amen,
- 27:20Speaker 1: you'll be like, yeah, this is not an accident. It
- 27:22Speaker 1: looks like things are in order. And we serve a
- 27:24Speaker 1: God who has a mind to set things in place.
- 27:28Speaker 1: The Bible says he put all things in place, the heaven,
- 27:31Speaker 1: the moons, the stars. Amen. As a matter of fact,
- 27:34Speaker 1: the nasau is funny. They say that the sun is
- 27:39Speaker 1: a star, and I know the sun is not a star.
- 27:43Speaker 1: The sun is. The thing is when science can't explain things,
- 27:47Speaker 1: they stop putting labels and names on things that they
- 27:49Speaker 1: can't understand. No, it's a burning light. It burns, Amen.
- 27:55Speaker 1: And how many times have you heard from their science
- 27:58Speaker 1: books and scientists that say we don't know how that
- 28:03Speaker 1: they want to call it a star continues to burn
- 28:07Speaker 1: and burn and burn, but never consume itself. But thought
- 28:11Speaker 1: about that, that's God's creation. He set the moon, the sky,
- 28:16Speaker 1: the stars above below. Amen. The sea. We can't get
- 28:21Speaker 1: to the bottom of the sea, and we can't break
- 28:23Speaker 1: the Earth's planet atmosphere. People say, well, we've been to
- 28:26Speaker 1: the moon. We've been here, we've been there, but they
- 28:28Speaker 1: never show us, show us these crazy video looking, video
- 28:32Speaker 1: game looking images of people in space, and then they
- 28:36Speaker 1: start talking about what are we doing in space? What
- 28:39Speaker 1: are we doing under that space station? What are they
- 28:42Speaker 1: working on? Anyway? I don't want to go down that
- 28:45Speaker 1: trail amount of time though, Amen. I just think about
- 28:48Speaker 1: these things a lot, and I'm like, those are temporary
- 28:51Speaker 1: ideas that don't lead to nothing of eternity. Amen. I'll
- 28:56Speaker 1: read this a couple of more things. Man Well says
- 28:59Speaker 1: people on doing just what they say in these last days,
- 29:03Speaker 1: becoming lovers of self and turning from the truth. And
- 29:08Speaker 1: that's yeah, and that's true. That's why we got to
- 29:11Speaker 1: be praying for people's souls and lives. That's God's lorry,
- 29:15Speaker 1: his creation. So listen. Amount of time and then there's
- 29:17Speaker 1: so much here. Take colloses chapter three. Read the whole
