  Welcome back. Yes, welcome back everybody
• 0:36
  after those I've been listening. Thank you so much.
• 0:38
  You know, we've been realizing that the numbers are, you know,
• 0:44
  like they're getting higher and the remaining, which, you know,
• 0:48
  this isn't about us, this is about God.
• 0:50
  And and, you know, it does get me excited, obviously, of
• 0:54
  course, you know what I mean. But you know, glory to God.
• 0:57
  Yeah, of course I don't. Understand, I do want to say
• 0:59
  that when you hear about whatever we speak about, share
• 1:03
  it, you know, share the link. If, if it's something where you
• 1:07
  know it's the truth, you just share it with your brother and
• 1:13
  sister in Christ or someone who might be struggling with
• 1:15
  something or they might need to hear the word of God in a
• 1:18
  different. It's not really a different
• 1:21
  perspective. It's just much deeper, right and
• 1:24
  clear. So, so whoever listens, where's
• 1:28
  whoever's new here or you want someone else to join the
• 1:31
  conversation, definitely subscribe, follow us, press a
• 1:35
  notification on YouTube. It'll let you know when the
• 1:38
  episode comes out as well as the same thing in in Spotify that
• 1:42
  that will let you know. So when it comes out.
• 1:44
  So before we start right, we will always like to start with a
• 1:51
  prayer, you know, thanking God for everything and also for him
• 1:55
  to, you know, take charge because He's in control of
• 1:59
  everything all the time. Amen.
• 2:01
  Amen. Thank you, Father, for this
• 2:03
  opportunity. Because of your son, we have now
• 2:08
  the opportunity to come to you and, and, and, and repent and
• 2:13
  say sorry. And we are so grateful for that.
• 2:17
  You know, sometimes we kind of forget the world.
• 2:20
  We get caught up in the world and and then sometimes we don't
• 2:24
  stop and meditate. How beautiful that really is,
• 2:27
  how important that really is that a God of the universe
• 2:29
  created the universe decided to send his son because you knew
• 2:36
  that we were incapable of anything, right?
• 2:40
  And so we thank you for that greatly that your Holy Spirit
• 2:43
  takes over that that that the Holy Spirit guides us.
• 2:45
  Whoever listens also is guided. And, and one day as this keeps
• 2:52
  going, you can make it to something, whatever you wanted
• 2:55
  to make it, and Amen. Amen.
• 3:00
  Amen. Alright, so the today's topic,
• 3:08
  the topic for today, right is does God believe in you?
• 3:16
  That's Bros. We're gonna hear you for this.
• 3:19
  Does God believe in you? And the whole reason why, you
• 3:23
  know, we're going to we're going to talk about this topic is
• 3:27
  because, you know, you came across a video.
• 3:30
  I did. I did.
• 3:32
  And well, why don't you share? Share before I get started
• 3:35
  until. Basically, usually our Tuesdays
• 3:38
  we we, we focus on the business of God right on the stuff for
• 3:43
  him and you know, we just show up for him that they in a form
• 3:48
  of a sacrificial way. And as we were getting started,
• 3:54
  you know, I was scrolling, obviously, and it seems like my
• 4:00
  my algorithm has a lot to do with like people putting reels
• 4:04
  about Bible verses podcast. So that which is great.
• 4:08
  I mean, there's some people that say some great stuff.
• 4:09
  There's some people that just are completely confused.
• 4:12
  Yeah. And so I came across a post that
• 4:18
  Daddy Yankee was preaching. Oh, it was Daddy Yankee he was.
• 4:22
  He was. Preaching in the church, right?
• 4:25
  I'm not going to judge him. I can if I want to, right?
• 4:29
  But he was talking about like, you know, people criticize me
• 4:33
  because I was in the, in the secular world being successful
• 4:39
  and all of that, right? But sometimes 1 still needs the
• 4:45
  healing inside the heart and and sometimes the people judge you
• 4:50
  and criticize you and and don't believe in you.
• 4:54
  But he says, but God believes in you.
• 4:58
  When he said that it was instant or faster than instant, because
• 5:06
  then when, as he says that, I said, had he, had he actually
• 5:11
  put his trust in us, he wouldn't have come to die for us.
• 5:16
  Exactly. Exactly.
• 5:19
  Dude but that happened so quick. Yeah, I know because you, you
• 5:23
  asked me that question too. You're like, yo, does God
• 5:25
  believe in you? And I'm like, now why?
• 5:28
  Why would he believe in me if, if I'm I'm wretched, wicked, you
• 5:33
  know, like I, I need help. Exactly.
• 5:35
  So when he says God believes in you, I mean Spanish, right, He
• 5:39
  was saying right, El Trenti, right, That kind of actually
• 5:44
  just contradicts when Christ says deny yourself, yes, that
• 5:47
  self of you that has to be denied.
• 5:49
  Why would then God trust you right in that?
• 5:53
  Exactly. Exactly. 100%.
• 5:55
  So that happened so like an instant Now for some believers
• 6:01
  at hindsight, when they hear that or as soon as they hear
• 6:04
  that it, it won't sound. So that doesn't sound why, why,
• 6:11
  why wouldn't God believe in us all this and, and, and, and, and
• 6:15
  I mean it. At first it would sound like
• 6:17
  normal. Well, you saw us saying things
• 6:19
  that are normal, and quite honestly, I didn't come to that
• 6:25
  realization simply because it was that Yankee.
• 6:27
  No, I'm sure that he does, Right?
• 6:33
  The fruits, you know, the fruits shall speak for themselves,
• 6:35
  right? Absolutely.
• 6:37
  And it wasn't because it, but because that phrase that he said
• 6:40
  had, it could have been anybody, right?
• 6:43
  Because he said it that way. Yeah, yeah, Yeah.
• 6:46
  Instantly it was like, wait, how do you believe in me?
• 6:51
  There would be no need for him to sacrifice himself for me.
• 6:53
  Exactly because we would be able to fulfill.
• 6:55
  We'll be able to do it. Exactly.
• 6:58
  But but On the contrary. Yeah, according to, you know,
• 7:02
  the letters of our brothers and sisters, Yeah.
• 7:03
  According to scripture and scripture, even the letters
• 7:06
  outside of scripture by the the the disciples of the apostles,
• 7:10
  yeah, doesn't it doesn't even. Talk about not even close.
• 7:14
  It always says to deny yourself. It's that theme, right?
• 7:17
  Do not trust in yourself. Yes, exactly.
• 7:19
  So if he's if God doesn't don't trust you or deny yourself, why
• 7:23
  then why would he believe in you?
• 7:24
  Exactly, exactly. On the contrary, God wants you
• 7:28
  to believe in Him. Now, that is not to say that
• 7:33
  when you come to God and you then start like submerging
• 7:40
  yourself in his presence and you, your, he's your first love,
• 7:43
  right? That's not to say that he's not
• 7:45
  going to call you for something, but that's him.
• 7:47
  That's him. Exactly right, Exactly he'll.
• 7:49
  Call you for something. You have a calling or something
• 7:53
  in the midst of your weaknesses that you're fighting like a
• 7:54
  warrior. He's preparing you.
• 7:57
  Amen for something that He is going to give you.
• 7:59
  Correct. If you don't like, let's say I
• 8:05
  don't want to say basically this way, but what Second Timothy 215
• 8:09
  says, if you don't find yourself approved, you'll just have
• 8:13
  someone else, yeah. And do it and and we see that
• 8:15
  throughout the Scriptures like like Moses and the people in the
• 8:19
  desert got replaced now. You know?
• 8:22
  Yeah, exactly. Now, I'm not painting a God
• 8:25
  who's who's a meanie or he's bad.
• 8:29
  No, this is a righteous God. If anything it just shows me how
• 8:33
  much more he loves me. Exactly, yes, though there is
• 8:38
  though a moment where you can be trusted and there will be some
• 8:49
  belief for you. And you know what?
• 8:50
  That's actually scriptural because I think it wasn't
• 8:54
  Timothy in the book of Timothy, if I'm not mistaken, where it
• 8:58
  says that we were entrusted with the word of God, with the
• 9:00
  gospel, to preach it the way it is.
• 9:04
  Exactly. Yes.
• 9:05
  The way the what? The way it is, the way the
• 9:06
  gospel is. So it requires you, right?
• 9:10
  Requires you when you repent, when you deny yourself.
• 9:14
  Yeah, that moment of denial, right.
• 9:17
  What he put in that in that cup, in that cup, right, of a clay
• 9:22
  made out of clay, that's what we are, right?
• 9:26
  He goes like you will now spread this word.
• 9:29
  Amen. It's not more of an entrust,
• 9:31
  it's most of of responsibility. Yes, all right.
• 9:34
  It's almost like, OK, you let go of the world, I break the
• 9:37
  chuckles of the world from you. Here is this.
• 9:42
  Right. But however, if you turn your
• 9:44
  back away from me, there will be consequences.
• 9:46
  Yeah, exactly. While that's happening, the
• 9:49
  enemy's going to come and say I believe in you.
• 9:52
  I trust you. Yeah, I trust in all your
• 9:54
  abilities. Exactly.
• 9:55
  Trust in everything that you. Do exactly.
• 9:57
  If he will do that while you have the responsibility
• 10:03
  entrusted doesn't necessarily mean I trust you with this.
• 10:06
  No, you're not responsible. Responsible for it.
• 10:09
  Amen. Amen.
• 10:10
  You now know the truth. You now know the light.
• 10:12
  You're not responsible. Yep.
• 10:14
  To spread it. Exactly.
• 10:16
  To let that world know they should not trust themselves.
• 10:19
  To trust who? To trust God.
• 10:22
  Exactly. Exactly bro, no.
• 10:24
  I know this is some for some Christians like no God believes
• 10:29
  in me. No, you're only doing that to.
• 10:33
  Cope. Yep, exactly, exactly.
• 10:37
  But that's interesting that you did bring that up that the only
• 10:40
  moment he does say or what you just.
• 10:43
  Said yeah in scripture. He has entrusted or has given us
• 10:45
  the responsibility. Yeah, exactly, Exactly.
• 10:48
  That's basically what they were saying.
• 10:50
  God has entrusted us with this gospel, basically like this
• 10:52
  mission where we're here to do it, to execute it.
• 10:57
  Exactly, Exactly. So.
• 10:59
  And so to move forward, right, obviously he, he does have some
• 11:04
  verses that it, it finds where at time and again, it proves
• 11:11
  that it's, it's not how we think about it, right?
• 11:14
  It it's how Christ spoke about it, how the apostle saw it, the
• 11:19
  Old Testament and New Testament. Amen.
• 11:21
  OK, exactly. I believe you have a verse and
• 11:24
  you want to read it. Right.
• 11:26
  Let's read right here one of the most famous verses out of every
• 11:29
  Christian's mouth, John 3 verse 16.
• 11:35
  Ready. For God loved the world in this
• 11:39
  way, He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who
• 11:44
  believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.
• 11:49
  For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the
• 11:52
  world, but to save the world through Him.
• 11:56
  Keep reading. Anyone who believes in him is
• 12:02
  not condemned, but anyone who does not believe is already
• 12:07
  condemned. OK, now that way he just said
• 12:10
  that he didn't send his son to condemn the world.
• 12:13
  That's right. He sent his son to save, not to
• 12:18
  condemn. Exactly.
• 12:19
  That because everybody was already condemned.
• 12:23
  And if you're already condemned, why would he send his son to
• 12:26
  reclaim, commend, condemn, condemn you again?
• 12:30
  Exactly why would you do that? Right, right.
• 12:32
  Exactly. But anyone who does not believe
• 12:37
  is already condemned because he has not believed in the name of
• 12:40
  the one and only Son of God. OK, now the world to him is
• 12:49
  already condemned, right? He didn't send his son to
• 12:53
  condemn the world, right? Because they're already
• 12:56
  condemned, right? I understand.
• 12:58
  How that works? No, no.
• 12:59
  Why? Would he re condemn again?
• 13:02
  Exactly right. So now he says he loved the
• 13:06
  world, loving the world. At that moment that he does this
• 13:10
  sacrifice for the world, for any believer starts to believe that
• 13:14
  wasn't because he trusted to. That love that he executed
• 13:19
  wasn't because he trusted. It was because I don't trust you
• 13:22
  guys, right? You guys cannot uphold anything.
• 13:26
  Exactly, exactly. You cannot uphold a single
• 13:30
  thing. So now we move on to John 14,
• 13:36
  right? Let's start at 5.
• 13:38
  It says, Lord, Thomas said, we don't know where you're going.
• 13:43
  How? How can we know the way Jesus
• 13:47
  told him I am, the way, the truth and the life.
• 13:51
  No one comes to the Father except through me.
• 13:54
  If you know me, you will also know my Father from now on.
• 13:57
  Do know Him and seen Him? OK, what does that mean?
• 14:04
  That he is the way, the only way.
• 14:07
  So his way is the only way, the truth and the life.
• 14:11
  That means his way is the only thing to be trusted.
• 14:13
  Exactly The only thing to ever be trusted?
• 14:17
  Absolutely. Not your ways.
• 14:19
  Nope, not even close. You know, and and the pastor
• 14:23
  said something really interesting one time.
• 14:25
  He said sometimes, right? He's like, he's like, your
• 14:29
  problem is not that you think you're strong.
• 14:30
  No, like the the problem is that you don't realize how weak you
• 14:33
  really are. That is true.
• 14:36
  And sometimes, you know, like we do have that tendency to, to
• 14:40
  want to fight our own battles. That is true now as we've been
• 14:45
  learning that, for example, in Luke 4/18 it it says that we we
• 14:53
  were given this gospel to the level the to deliver the the
• 14:59
  broken hearted. Right.
• 15:01
  And all of this, right? But in a sense, we are warriors.
• 15:07
  Exactly right. Exactly.
• 15:09
  And our struggle and suffering is sin, or if you will, the most
• 15:14
  common one lost. Exactly that is.
• 15:17
  That doesn't, that doesn't mean you're falling into that lust
• 15:19
  constantly. No, it's a, it's a struggle.
• 15:22
  It's a, it's a fight, it's a trial every time.
• 15:25
  It's that endurance that you're going through that when the time
• 15:29
  is right, it is fulfilled. Amen.
• 15:31
  And you lack nothing exactly. That's what makes you worried.
• 15:34
  That's what that weakness through that weakness, or what I
• 15:37
  mean by weakness is that constant distraction or
• 15:43
  temptation that comes or of this physical body that's broken,
• 15:48
  'cause there's a lot of elements, right?
• 15:49
  The enemy distraction your body or your hormonal if you're man
• 15:54
  versus woman, all these things all together right absolutely
• 15:57
  why would God trust in you if you.
• 16:00
  Can't do it exactly. You're weak.
• 16:02
  Why would he trust in a weak? That's what he's saying.
• 16:04
  Believe in him and it is through him.
• 16:08
  So when you're strong, why are you even strong?
• 16:10
  Is it because you're strong by yourself?
• 16:12
  No way. It is he who strengthens, he
• 16:15
  who. Strengthens you like Philippians
• 16:16
  413 exactly through all I can do all things through Christ who
• 16:20
  strengthens me. Exactly.
• 16:21
  So we have an habit in this culture to make it about us,
• 16:24
  right? And I believe Pastor Francis
• 16:26
  Chan says this is not about you. Yeah, this is about.
• 16:29
  God, this is about Him. Yep.
• 16:31
  Right. Exactly.
• 16:31
  Exactly. Yeah.
• 16:33
  So no, no, like, I like the part where you said like, we are such
• 16:36
  a weak vessel, We we can't do anything ourselves, you know?
• 16:39
  And this is what Paul had to say.
• 16:41
  Ready. So Romans Chapter 7 verse 19 For
• 16:46
  I do not do the good that I want to do, but I practice the evil
• 16:50
  that I do want to do. Now if I do what I do not want,
• 16:54
  I am no longer the one that does it, but it is the sin that lives
• 16:58
  in me. So I discover this law when I
• 17:01
  want to do what is good, evil is present with me.
• 17:04
  For in my inner self I delight in God's law, but I see a
• 17:07
  different law in the parts of my body which in war against the
• 17:11
  law of my mind, taking me prisoner to the law of sin in
• 17:16
  the parts of my body. What a wretched man I am who
• 17:21
  will rescue me from this body of death, thanks be to God through
• 17:26
  Jesus Christ our Lord. So then when my mind, I myself
• 17:30
  am serving the law of God, but with my flesh law of sin.
• 17:35
  So he's literally, literally describing there.
• 17:38
  There is not even a moment that you should even be trusting
• 17:42
  yourself. Exactly.
• 17:43
  Yet alone God trusting in you. Exactly.
• 17:46
  Other than God saying I love you and although I know you're
• 17:52
  incapable, I have to die for you.
• 17:55
  Exactly. Because you can't be trusted.
• 18:00
  It is only thanks to Christ that we are able to do all things,
• 18:06
  but for some reason there's a lot of people that have a hard
• 18:10
  time with with that verse for some reason.
• 18:13
  Which one? Not the one that when no wait
• 18:16
  actually what you just said right now like it is going
• 18:18
  through. If I'm to be honest, this, I'm
• 18:23
  sure this conversation has come up in other conversations
• 18:26
  amongst other people, believers. But I had like, I'll be honest
• 18:32
  with you. When I, when I heard this, this
• 18:33
  was something too quick for me to even I was like, had God
• 18:40
  trusted in me, why would he then have to come and die for me,
• 18:44
  Right. Yeah.
• 18:45
  And so when I said that you were just like what you were in, I
• 18:49
  saw that you were in shock because you were like, dude.
• 18:52
  That is so true. No, it's true.
• 18:54
  It truth be told Yeah, if like you heard what Paul said right
• 18:59
  He said wretched man that I am who will deliver me from this
• 19:01
  thanks be through Christ Jesus because it is true bro, we we
• 19:05
  can be exactly. So he discovered these type of
• 19:10
  laws and by law meaning like these, these, I guess you can
• 19:16
  call them for I discover the law, I discover another one.
• 19:21
  And when he says I've discovered another one, it's almost like a
• 19:23
  each discovery he makes. There is a guide to it, right?
• 19:27
  But then he then speaks about with all that interaction, how
• 19:31
  then should I be trusting myself?
• 19:34
  Exactly. He's literally describing.
• 19:35
  There's no form of even trusting myself.
• 19:37
  Yeah, exactly. Get alone.
• 19:38
  Why would God trust you when you're in this mode?
• 19:41
  He had to literally die for you. Oh, yeah, exactly.
• 19:44
  No, it's true. And look, it says here, right in
• 19:47
  Ephesians 28, right? It says, for you are saved by
• 19:53
  grace through faith. And this is not from yourselves.
• 19:57
  It is a gift, it is gifts, it is God's gift not from works, so
• 20:04
  that no one can boast, for we are His workmanship, created in
• 20:09
  Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time
• 20:12
  for us to do so once again. The work is.
• 20:17
  To trust and have faith in Him, in Him and believe in Him which?
• 20:20
  Christ this say to the disciples, you want to do the
• 20:22
  work of God. This is the work of God, that
• 20:24
  you have faith. Yes.
• 20:26
  Which it requires What? Effort.
• 20:28
  Effort. Exactly 100%.
• 20:32
  Exactly. So I know, I know as we're going
• 20:36
  to go, we're going to be going through some of these verses
• 20:39
  just just to just to let you know, whoever's listening that
• 20:43
  this is not, we're not doing this to like make you feel like
• 20:49
  you're worthless, pathetic. Nah.
• 20:52
  God already made it seem we he knew we were filthy rags.
• 20:55
  Yep. But we are pathetic.
• 20:56
  We are, we are all of this exactly.
• 20:58
  And it's OK. Just admit to it.
• 20:59
  We are. This is what we are, but we're
• 21:02
  not doing this because we're no, no, no, I actually, I'm very
• 21:07
  impressed and, and happy and quite honestly, like in all
• 21:12
  that, some of these Christians, young Christians out there, you
• 21:15
  know, on social media, they're like, you know, putting
• 21:18
  themselves out there. Although in some of the things
• 21:21
  that in some of the things that they do, they might be doing it,
• 21:25
  you know, right. But nevertheless, I mean, it's
• 21:29
  still commendable because they do feel the love of God, or at
• 21:35
  least they're fearing him, right, to want to take action
• 21:39
  and share the gospel and do all these things.
• 21:41
  So we're not talking about this because God is this like this,
• 21:47
  you know, this is how we have to see God.
• 21:51
  God is literally the king of everything, right?
• 21:55
  He's not this God who exercises the desire to want to torture.
• 22:01
  No, no, no, no. God is just righteous and he is
• 22:08
  above all things. And we'll, we'll touch a little
• 22:10
  bit of that, but I feel like you, you have another verse
• 22:12
  there that you wanted to share. Yeah, so the part where you said
• 22:14
  about filthy rags, right? Yeah.
• 22:16
  You know, like you said, God is a holy God.
• 22:19
  Like there he, he knows what evil is, but he's not tempted by
• 22:23
  it because he's beyond holy. He's he's he's God.
• 22:27
  So this is what I mean. What about not Ezekiel?
• 22:31
  Isaiah 64, five says you welcome the one who joyfully does what
• 22:36
  is right. They remember you in your ways.
• 22:39
  But we have sinned, and you were angry.
• 22:42
  How can we be saved if we remain in our sins?
• 22:46
  All of us have become like something unclean, and all our
• 22:50
  righteous acts are like the looted garment.
• 22:55
  All of us wither like a leaf, and our iniquities carry us away
• 22:59
  like the wind. So like you said, filthy rags.
• 23:04
  Our righteous acts are still like.
• 23:07
  Like. Dirty, dirty garments.
• 23:09
  In the eyes of God, still and right, Absolutely, Absolutely.
• 23:14
  You know what it is? Is that?
• 23:17
  Well, Christ didn't come to speak about something new, right
• 23:23
  When and Luki calls everybody to repent and he's not.
• 23:26
  This is not a new idea. Right.
• 23:29
  Right. He's being called up by the
• 23:31
  Pharisees. Why are you healing that person
• 23:35
  on the Sabbath? He's like what, you hypocrite?
• 23:39
  You hypocrite you. You guys wouldn't go get your
• 23:42
  donkey and take it out on your Sabbath?
• 23:44
  Why? Why did he say that?
• 23:45
  Because they've done that before.
• 23:46
  Exactly. Absolutely.
• 23:48
  So this is what's happening. Christ came because of our
• 23:53
  hypocrisy was just. It was just.
• 23:56
  Exactly. I'm not going.
• 23:57
  To do it, it's not. Yeah, can't do it.
• 24:00
  Exactly. So he needed to prove He
• 24:03
  provided a way so that we can come to the Father and ask for
• 24:05
  forgiveness and our sins are forgiven.
• 24:08
  Amen. Right.
• 24:10
  Amen. So now Christ sees us justified
• 24:13
  and righteous because of who? Because of him.
• 24:15
  Because of him. Because his son.
• 24:17
  Right. Die for us.
• 24:19
  Exactly. Exactly.
• 24:20
  You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely.
• 24:22
  And always look, look, keep in mind, right, like when he when I
• 24:25
  heard that this morning, you know, and I meditated in my room
• 24:29
  and I was like I was like wait, God like lead me to some some
• 24:32
  verses where where like because no way this is not true.
• 24:37
  You do not trust us if, if anything, like when we come to
• 24:42
  the truth now we have a responsibility to carry out the
• 24:45
  gospel and to go preach it, to go do those good works.
• 24:48
  I know in Ezekiel 3626 to 27, right, it says I will give him a
• 24:55
  new heart of flesh, not a heart of stone, right, right.
• 24:58
  And I will send the Spirit to cause him to do the good works,
• 25:03
  to fulfill out commandments. So even then he still has to
• 25:08
  send what? The Spirit, the Spirit, the Holy
• 25:11
  Spirit. So even in John 1426, Christ
• 25:17
  says I will, my Father will send out a counselor, someone to
• 25:21
  guide you. So even when we come to the
• 25:23
  truth. We still need guidance.
• 25:25
  We still need to. You tell me, does he trust us?
• 25:27
  No, absolutely. Not if he's telling us to deny
• 25:29
  yourself, right? To deny herself.
• 25:32
  Meaning do not trust yourself. Like I mean, do not trust
• 25:35
  yourself in anything. Right, exactly.
• 25:37
  You're going to now think that God believes in you.
• 25:39
  Exactly. After he's telling you do not
• 25:41
  trust in yourself. Exactly do not trust in yourself
• 25:43
  because you know in Jeremiah, right, 17-9 to 10, right?
• 25:47
  This is what it says if I'm not mistaken, because I'm just going
• 25:50
  based off of kind of like memory.
• 25:53
  It says the heart is deceitful above all things.
• 25:56
  Like who can know it? I the Lord, It says I the Lord,
• 26:01
  we will never understand our hearts ever.
• 26:04
  So for that reason, how can God have trust in US in that way if
• 26:10
  he knows that our hearts are deceitful?
• 26:12
  He tells us yo deny yourself. You know, like like I will give
• 26:15
  you a new heart that will cause you.
• 26:18
  And even then I'll still send my spirit to God because because
• 26:21
  even then you still will fail. So, so the fact, you know, when
• 26:25
  he said that, I was like, that doesn't make any sense, man.
• 26:28
  It doesn't make any sense to what our brothers wrote about.
• 26:31
  Yeah. You know, our brothers literally
• 26:33
  said, you know, enjoy the suffering and during it, you
• 26:35
  know, because now we have, you know, the guidance of the Holy
• 26:41
  Spirit. We we do suffer because.
• 26:43
  That's exactly our. Flesh, you know, wages war and
• 26:47
  wants to take over. And, you know, I thought that
• 26:50
  was really interesting when I read Ezekiel because I'm like,
• 26:52
  wow, God, even after we come to the truth, we still even then,
• 26:58
  still, even with the new heart, we still need guidance.
• 27:01
  Yeah. So even more God, thank you
• 27:04
  because you do not trust you. You, you literally do not like
• 27:09
  you do tell me to not trust myself.
• 27:11
  Thank you, God, because you sent.
• 27:13
  You sent you know a helper to help me.
• 27:16
  I think that construct constructive criticism is, is
• 27:25
  how I say it, for accountability amongst our brothers, right?
• 27:29
  Not to put ourselves, I mean literally, Scripture talks about
• 27:31
  this. Yep, absolutely.
• 27:34
  I'm I'm sure that Yankee wasn't a bad No, we're all wicked.
• 27:39
  We're all wicked and. But but it's, it's kind of like
• 27:46
  people are saying, well, like, yeah, yeah, he, he, he kept like
• 27:49
  speaking. He's like, you know, there's
• 27:51
  nothing wrong with being disciplined and being successful
• 27:54
  and doing all this, but not having not carrying Jesus with
• 27:58
  you in the boat. Oh, so, so it's your boat.
• 28:01
  I was like, so now it's it's your boat.
• 28:03
  So, yeah, so I was, I'm like, I'm just like in my head, I was
• 28:06
  like, there's nowhere they're letting letting this guy preach.
• 28:08
  And again, it's OK that he's preaching.
• 28:12
  He has to be paying attention to what he's saying to him.
• 28:14
  Absolutely. And it's not even about, it's
• 28:16
  not even about if you're saying this theologically correct or
• 28:18
  not. Forget about that.
• 28:21
  It's logic. It's just straight up logic it.
• 28:23
  Is logic. Yeah, exactly right.
• 28:25
  You know, that's actually interesting that you said it's
• 28:27
  just logic because I've been, I've been thinking about that.
• 28:29
  I'm like, yo, a lot of Christians, bro, like for
• 28:32
  example, they wouldn't wear a gold chain where they go into a
• 28:36
  neighborhood where they know that there's a lot of thieves.
• 28:39
  It's just common sense. It's just logic.
• 28:41
  Exactly. So like you read the gospels but
• 28:45
  then you want to like add on top of it.
• 28:47
  It makes no sense to it. But dude, dude, exactly.
• 28:51
  You know what? Literally.
• 28:52
  Yeah, dude, I totally, I totally get what you're saying.
• 28:54
  You know what I mean? I totally get.
• 28:55
  What you're saying like, and I'm I wouldn't say I'm nervous.
• 28:59
  I'm just like, wow. I mean, what if someone is
• 29:03
  listening? They're not.
• 29:04
  They don't even rescript her like that.
• 29:06
  Yeah, I agree. Anything that he's saying just
• 29:09
  goes. This is why I say constructive,
• 29:14
  constructive criticism. If I ever get the chance to
• 29:18
  speak to him, I would love to. And equally I'd be like, hey
• 29:21
  listen man, I don't care how much money you've made all of
• 29:24
  this God has come to your life like you say, but you will be
• 29:29
  corrected from another brother in Christ, you probably see
• 29:32
  less. Exactly.
• 29:35
  To have that opportunity to tell him like has to happen.
• 29:37
  Absolutely. I'm I mean, are pastors afraid
• 29:41
  to tell him like what they is he going to leave?
• 29:43
  They want his donation. Like what's going on?
• 29:45
  Here dude. That's what I'm saying, man,
• 29:47
  because Scripture clearly says bear one another.
• 29:49
  Oh, and the best, one of the best verses for for us is iron
• 29:54
  sharpens iron. So like what you said there,
• 29:57
  there's going to be conflict, friction.
• 29:58
  Yeah, that's. Another, that's another thing,
• 30:00
  like, do you know what you're saying when you say iron
• 30:01
  sharpens iron, right? You're saying that that's like,
• 30:03
  Oh yeah, we're friends. We help each other.
• 30:05
  Nah, that's not what iron sharpen iron mean.
• 30:08
  Iron sharpeners. If you see iron next to iron
• 30:11
  right, you see? Sparks.
• 30:13
  You see sparks. Friction, Yeah.
• 30:14
  Heat and you hear like like making that like you hear that
• 30:17
  sound yeah, so. You're going to tell me that if
• 30:19
  iron sharpens iron, that means that when I come to you and say
• 30:23
  something, it's going to be something that I'm against you,
• 30:26
  right. And you're going to say
• 30:27
  something that's against me. Exactly.
• 30:28
  But if the love of God remains in between, there it should be
• 30:33
  for the, for the, for the better.
• 30:35
  Exactly. Right, because when you iron
• 30:37
  sharpen with iron, those two things become.
• 30:41
  Yep. Once it's done, it's so sharp.
• 30:44
  Super sharp, yeah. Right.
• 30:46
  I agree. So I don't understand people
• 30:48
  when they say, you know, I'm sharp inside.
• 30:52
  I hope you understand what that means.
• 30:55
  Yeah, absolutely, man. So I just feel like, I mean,
• 30:59
  Christ even told Nicodemus, how do you not understand these
• 31:01
  things? You're a teacher and you should
• 31:03
  know these things, right? So you're speaking to him about
• 31:05
  common things? Common things, exactly.
• 31:08
  How then will you understand the heavenly things if you can't
• 31:10
  understand the spiritual thing? And the spiritual things, he
• 31:12
  considered them already. Common sense.
• 31:14
  Yeah. Isn't that crazy?
• 31:16
  And we have a hard time here understanding the spiritual
• 31:19
  things. Yeah.
• 31:20
  So to finish, we just want to let you guys know God loves you
• 31:24
  enough to let you know you can't be trusted.
• 31:29
  Yes, Amen. So believe in me.
• 31:32
  Amen. What better love is there,
• 31:34
  right? He sent his one and only son so
• 31:36
  that you can have access to him for forgiveness.
• 31:40
  So. Again, this is with much love

  And if you want to take us out with a prayer?
• 32:01
  Absolutely. Thank you, Father, for once
• 32:05
  again for allowing us to be here.
• 32:07
  The privilege that we have the opportunity that we get to talk
• 32:12
  about your word, we get to, it's a blessing, it's an honor.
• 32:17
  And I pray, O Lord, that we continue this great work, O
• 32:21
  Lord, all for your glory. Not for us, for Lord, for we
• 32:25
  have a deceitful heart and we need the Holy Spirit.
• 32:27
  We need it, O Lord. Without the Holy Spirit, without
• 32:29
  you, O Lord, we are nothing, we perish.
• 32:33
  But thank you, Lord, for sending your one and only Son, so that
• 32:37
  we can have access to you. And thank you, O glorious God,
• 32:41
  for giving us a new heart and filling us up, O Lord, with
• 32:45
  Spirit, so that it can guide us to the absolute truth.
• 32:49
  You are the one true, living God, and there is no one who is
• 32:52
  greater than you, for you are the one true, living God.
• 32:56
  Amen. Amen to the next one, guys.
