  Speaker 1: I want a family guy. Good morning, God bless you.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to the morning Devo's your bro Sam Lopez
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: right here on the one in devot. So when is
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: with a z Org Live? That's so? When is with
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: a z Org streaming on some social media platforms that
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: allow the streams to go through and also streaming on
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: our YouTube page which is called name dj Sam Rocky Man.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna have to put on my lighting on
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: the other end because I realized I didn't put the
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: lighting on on the other side of the studio. But
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I think it's okay. Event it will show that it's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: really early in the morning, amen, by the darkness on
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: one side and the light on the other. But listen,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: let's go for it. Well, holiday season is here, right,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: and I know a lot of preachers and evangelists are
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: going forward the theme of the Birth of Jesus, Christmas
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: time and all that, and I wanted to follow suit,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: but the Lord told me, no, let them do that.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I need you to do this. During the holiday season,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are gearing up to get drunk,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: to get high on drugs, to get pressure to do
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: things during the holiday season that normally they wouldn't do.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: But they might have some time off, they might have
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: some a little bit more, a little bit too much
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: time on their hands, right, and they might want to
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: be in the flesh during the holiday season, maybe because
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: they lost a love word, lost a job, or they're
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: not happy in a relationship, or they're surrounded by people
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that you know are not really helpful to their lives
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: or in their lives. So I felt the prompting of
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit of God, say, help us do a flesh detox.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: A flesh detox. What does that mean? Well, first of all,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: first of all, we know that the Christian's body, if
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: you're a christ follower, your body, the Christian's body, as
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: a temple of the Holy Spirit, right should not be
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: subjected should not be subjected to the harmful effects of
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: drug and alcohol abuse. You gotta be like, man, you're
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: messing up my holiday season. Why do we have to
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: talk about this? Well, that's what I was thinking too,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: I said, Lord, why do we have to talk about this?
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Can I talk about the baby Jesus the Manger? Can
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I talk about the star that the magi were following?
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Can I talk about those things that everybody else is
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: talking about? And heard the Lord say, no, there's other
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: people that during this holiday season. They don't see Christmas
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: like that. They don't see Christ Jesus born in a
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: manger like that. All they see, right is the issues
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: of life, problems, the pride of life, the lust of
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the flesh. And they see that type of activity going
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: on going on around them, so they decide to go
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: in the flesh and live that lifestyle more or vigorously
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: or more strongly during the holiday season. So the Lord
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: told me to talk about the flesh, and a flesh
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: detox is always a good thing to do. Amen. It's
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: like if you're mindful of your weight, if you're mindful
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: of your health, or your mindful of your gut, you
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: have to do some detox, right. You have to take
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the toxins out of your body. Amen. You fast, you
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: don't eat, or you eat right. You eat clean, drink
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: a lot of liquid, Drink a lot of water. Amen,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Your plate should
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: be colorful. It should be portions of what you're putting
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: on your plate. Right. How do I know all of that?
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Because I do that. I try to do that as
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: much as possible. Amen, Because if the body needs a detox.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: How much more does your soul and your flesh need
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: a detox from the things of this world, from the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: things that you might have been doing that doesn't seem
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: to be harmful to your body, harmful to your mind.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: It's not hurting anyone, but literally, literally, during the holiday season,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: that type of attitude of being in a flesh could
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: rise in people. That's Christians, our bodies is a temple
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: of the Holy Spirit God, First Corinthians, chapter number six,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: verse nineteen, First Corinthians, Chatter number six, Verse number nineteen.

• 6:52
  Speaker 1: during this season. And Jesus name, I pray this over

  Speaker 1: myth out of the way. It's not hard to be

• 9:54
  Speaker 1: we've heard that. I've said that. Oh man, this is

  Speaker 1: and he will lighten up our load. Amen. He wants
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: us to travel lightly. He doesn't want to put the
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: world on our shoulders. And he wants to follow. He
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: wants us to follow him. He's the author, and he's
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the perfector of our faith, and following Jesus easy. He's
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: a lover of our soul, savior of our soul. Amen,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: and he is easy to follow, easy to follow. The
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: scriptures to back it up. But let's go to this
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: where we have today. Before I go and down any
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: tangent or down any other avenue, I want to stay
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: on course here. Amen, Let's go for it. Let's see
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: we are we Amen, So here we go fless detox. Amen.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: And you know there's a lot of partying going on.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: So this is a good time for us to be conscious,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: if you're a believer, to know and remember who you
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: are in Christ. Amen. And so that way we know
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: that we're on the right path and right track, even
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: during this holiday season when so many people are doing this, that,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: and the third we don't have to be that way. First,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Corinthians chot the number six verse number nineteen Bible says,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: and this is a question. Do you not know that
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: is where outside of you? No, who is within you,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: whom you have received as a gift from God, What
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: a gift, And that you are not your own property?
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Do you know that believer, Christian, Christ, follower, churchgoer, did
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: you know that apostle, pastor, teacher, evangelist, prophet, Did you
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: know that that your body is a temple of the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit? Yep, the same spirit that
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: rose Jesus from the grave, the same spirit that Jesus sent,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: the same one as him, a man before he has sended,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: he said, I'm going to send one just like me
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: to be a helper I'm going to send one just
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: like me to be a God. I'm going to send
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: one just like me to remind you of who He
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: is in your life. So your body, as a believer,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: is a temple of a Holy Spirit. Now, granted, if
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: you don't believe in Christ, if you don't have Holy
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Spirit in you, then this doesn't apply yet. But you
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: could definitely get this going and you could definitely get
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: into a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus today. How
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: admit that you need him, Admit that you're a sinner,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: and go to Jesus to ask him and ask him
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to forgive you for your sin that you send against
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: a holy God. Believe that you be saved, believe in
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: the word that God gives you, and then He'll send
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: one just like him to live inside of your body physically, emotionally,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: and spiritually, Holy Spirit God. And then you're gonna want
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: to confess Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: everywhere you go, because you're gonna know for sure. Why
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: don't you percent that you're born again and there's been
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: a change in your life? Amen, how do I know?
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Because I did it man, By the grace of God,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: he allowed me to experience this born again experience. And
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: I really really hope that people all over will take
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: this chance and take this opportunity to get into a
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: personal relationship with the King of Kings and Lord of
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Lord as a savior last Adam and just show aha
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Mushi act Amen Jesus the Christ of Nazareth, get into
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: a personal relationship with him during his holiday season. Your
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: flesh will have a detox, you will be sober, and
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: you will be just lined up with the will word
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: of God. Amen, and it'll be a beautiful thing. Sisters, Duayne,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: good morning, I see you, God bless you. Welcome back
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: to the morning Devo. So listen, this is amazing. This
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: word is amazing, This opportunity is amazing to detox during
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a holiday season. People are really recognize that and be like, hey,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, Hanah, why aren't you doing what
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: everybody else is doing? And then you have the perfect
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: opportunity to share the reason why you're the way you are,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: the reason why you are sober while everyone around you
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: is intoxicated or maybe on drugs and men. The Christian's body,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: let's start there, right, Our body is just like any
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: other body, right, The flesh or bag of bones and blood. Right,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: So we have a lot more in common with people
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: than other people think. And we're human last time I
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: checked on the same planet Earth that supposedly is floating
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: on a globe somewhere. We're on access and it's around
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: or whatever, but we're on the same planet Earth. You know,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: all I can see is straight. I can't see around
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: the Earth, but I can see straight to where I'm going,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: straight back from where it came from. I can see
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: to the left, to the right, I can see north,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: I can see south, you know what I mean. Like,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I'm a human being, just like everybody else. Surprise, everyone
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: in the scriptures were human too that we're speaking that
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: were being spoken about. You have Nephilum, you have other
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: beings that we're not sure yet of what they were.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: But for the most part, the Lord was speaking through
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: human beings. He spoke through animals, right, he speaks to creation.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: But for the most part, what we read the majority
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: of the scriptures, there's a person, a man or a woman,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: a person speaking, a person being spoken to. So let's
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: get all the mysticism out of the way. I'm talking
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: about a personal god, a god who created us. Amen,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: he wants us to do a flesh detox the flesh
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: during the holiday season especially. I don't know if you
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: want to be honest about it, but a lot of
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: people are peer pressuring other people to do some things
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: that they normally would not do during the regular part
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: of the year. It seems like only through holiday seasons,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: only through celebration of you know, Christmas, Eastern New Year,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: like the big holidays that we celebrate here in the
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: United States, it seems like you get more peer pressure
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: during those times than any other time on the calendar.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: So we could be prepared for that, Amen. We could
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: buy out to a lot of things that people are
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: buying too. Amen. That's a word too. So we know
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: that there's negative effects from being drunk and high negative effects.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: So if you want to roll in a positive way,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have to tell your flesh, no, I'm not
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: doing that. I'm not going down that route. I'm gonna
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: be on a positive vibe, positive frequency, positive level and
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: inspired by the Spirit of God and the Christmas Spirit
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: whatever that is. A man whoever invented that not really
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: concerned with the Christmas Spirit. I'm concerned with Holy Spirit
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: God that leads me and guides me into all truth
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: and all righteousness. So that way, when the flesh tries
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: to rise up and act crazy, let's go, let's go
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: on the right side. Call car call I see you.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: So if you have any questions, you can put on
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: the live chat. Thank you so much for coming through
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: to the morning devot. So Temple of the Holy Spirit
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: should not be subjected to the harmful effects of drug
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: and alcohol abuse. Now, because I already hear people saying, well,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: I drink and I'm a Christian, as long as I
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: don't get drunk and nobody else. Yeah, I'm talking about
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: abuse and abusing your body starts or whatever. Put whatever
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: you put in your body. Right during the holiday seasons.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of snacks and a lot of cakes
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: and all kind of of garbage food around us, right,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: but it tastes good. So as soon as you start
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: putting those things in your body, a man, depending on
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the level or how much the amount that you're putting
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: in your body, it could be deemed as abusive. Man.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Too much cake, too much candy, too much sugar, too
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: much coffee, too much dish, and too much that could
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: be considered abuse. A man asks any physician, any doctor,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: any nurse, They would tell you, yeah, you might want
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: to not you know, drink eight cans of soda in
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: a row. That might not be too good for your body. Right.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: So these things are normal things that we could think of,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: and that's in the flesh and the body. The supernatural
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: things that we should be thinking of is the power
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: of God working through us. Amen. Amen. And the question
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: here by car call cause and how did we come
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: up with the date? December twenty fifth, if you don't
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: mind me asking, Notember twenty fifth was the day I
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: believe that the Catholic Church decided to celebrate the birth
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Biblically, a lot of
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: theologians say that Jesus had to be born around the spring,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: maybe April, during the time that was a little warmer,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: because they went from the census that was taken and
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: they took some you know, to the idea of the
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: time that the people were living in during that time.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: December twenty fifth, I believe that's a Catholic date, and
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: then the Christian denominations fell into line. Amen. So you
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: know that's where that date comes from. We don't as
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: believers in Christ. We don't we know that it wasn't
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: December twenty fifth that the Lord Jesus was born. As
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: a matter of fact, nobody knows the exact date. I
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: think theologians are coming to conclusions. Maybe they do have
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: an exact date. I never saw it, amen, But the
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: point is that he was born, all right, the birth
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: of the King of Kings and Lord of lords. He
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: was born from a virgin Mary. Born was the census
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: taken before he was born. So they went from where
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: they were originally died to the flea because the king
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Herod I believe his name was, was asking his people
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: to find any boy child from two years old and younger,
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: and he wanted to wipe them out because he was
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: inspired by Antichrist. He wanted no parts of another king
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: being born. So thank you for your question, amen, of
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: but be encouraged that Christians don't believe right that December
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: twenty fifth was the birth of the Lord Jesus. I
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: believe that was a Catholic idea, Amen. And you know,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: to honor the Lord in any way, for me is
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: a good time to honor God. If it wasn't for
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: his birth, it will be no Jesus life, and it
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: will be on Jesus death and there will be no resurrection. Amen.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: So we believe in the birth, life, death, and resurrection
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: of our life of Jesus Christ, all of it. I
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: believe all the story of the Lord. Amen, that he's
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: the King of kings and Lord of lords. Amen. And
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Carl call Cass says, where did the Catholics get the
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: idea of Christmas? By understanding is an adaptations from the Pagans. Yeah,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: it's a mixture of pagan ideas. Christian ideas is a mix,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: and the Bible says that the Lord God doesn't like
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: the mixture. He hates the mixture. Actually, Amen, So that's
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: something that it was an idea, like you're saying in
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: your question adaputition of Pagans. Yeah, it's a lot of
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: pagan holidays. Amen. I have a tree in my living room. Amen.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: We make sure we don't worship the tree. We use
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: it as a symbol of celebration. Amen. Just like when
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: you put a candle in the cake, you're not eating
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: a candle, you're eating the cake. Amen. But you use
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: the candle right to sing people Happy Birthday. So the
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: candle represents the decoration of what we're going to consume
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: the tree, and my concept of my idea represents this
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: the decoration of who we're about to celebrate man. So
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: yet there's a lot of pagan ideas. We can't we're
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: in a broken, fallen world. I think it's impossible for
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: us not to celebrate with some pagan ideas all throughout
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: our holidays and man Easter, Christmas, what else, you know, Thanksgiving,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: you know, stuff like that, like the holidays we celebrate
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: the United States. Man, some have a lot of pagan
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: ideas all around them. That's why we have to be
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: guided and guarded by Holy Spirit, because we are the
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: temple of Holy Spirit God, So that way we won't
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: fall into any type of weirdness of these celebrations. So
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for your question. So, according to
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: the scriptures, Apostle Paul says, and he asks us the question.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: And it's interesting to me that he's asking Christians this question.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: So he might have been seeing some things going on
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: in the current in the Church of Corinth. He might
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: have seen some things and he's asking he said, don't
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: you know, do you not know that you're living a
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: weird way? Because the Holy Spirit lives inside of us. Amen,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: So why are you doing this? It's almost like I
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: could hear Paul says, why are you doing that? Why
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: are you doing this? You don't you know right that
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: is in you? Not that you know. I hear a
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: lot of people say, God, you know he's with me.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: He's he's on the side of me. He's this well,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is in you. Amen. The hope of Glory,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: the power of God, the resurrection of God is living
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: inside of you. So during the holiday seasons, a lot
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: of people, a lot of people are preaching about the
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: mangor the birth of Jesus, Praise God. Amen, because it's
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: a thematic teaching. Amen. I was trying to do it too,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: but the Lord keeps on saying, no, I don't want
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: you to do that. Let them do what they're doing,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: what they've been doing traditionally. I want you to help
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: people go through a flesh detox according to his word,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: his holiness, his righteousness. He wants people to have a
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: real good time during the holiday season. He wants them
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: to be clean close. He wants them to be free
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: from any kind of abuse, alcohol and drugs. He wants
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: you to be delivered from all of that. Amen. So
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: he has me on this lane, and everybody that wants
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: to be in the other lane, he says, allow them
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: to do what they're doing, because everyone is called to
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: do what they're gonna do. Amen. So I'm just being
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: obedient and trying to listen. Amen, car call, Call says.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: So even before the Pagans, there was an idea of
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: God as a descriptive to describe things that were happening
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: at the time. Is this true? For example, the god
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: of lightning of Volcanos, the god of lightning sounds like
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: a Greek god. God a Volcanos sounds like a creative God.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: When I speak of God, I'm talking about the supreme,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: uber being that sits outside of time, space and time. Amen.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about a creative being, talking about the
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: creative all things in Christ, all things were created through Him,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: by him for him. Amen. So he's ultimate, supreme, higher
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: than any other idea of any other God. And the
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: term God is I think it was German. So there's
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: really not a word that we could describe the greatness
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: of God. So we're trying to describe God as God's
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: not his name, Amen. He has several names, Yahweh, Yeshivahamashik,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: he has eloheen el Shadai, Lord of Lords. Amen has
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: many names, many titles. But he's a supreme being. He's
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: not someone or something that was created. He's creator over
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: all creation, if that makes any sense. So thank you
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: also for that comment and being a part of what
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: we're doing here. So yeah, I'm running out of time, Amen.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Flesh detox it is a thing during the holiday season.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Don't be ashamed either if you're part of the culture
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: that during the holiday seasons, maybe have time off work,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: maybe have time off school, and people are inviting you
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: to do this, that and the third. And don't be
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: ashamed to say no, I'd rather not a man. Don't
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: be too pressure. And peer pressure doesn't mean just for teenagers,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: for young kids. Peer pressure is in adulthood too. Amen,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: It's a lot going on with the adults. So yeah, okay,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: So Carl Karkak, I have ten seconds, he says. So
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: there are approximately forty five hundred different gods being worshiped
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: around the world. Using logic, how do we come to
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: the conclusion of one? Thank you? I've just been on
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: search for salvation and need it. Okay, So what you
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: do is instead of worrying about the forty five hundred
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: other gods or different gods, you'll be on that journey
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: for a long time. Forty five hundred different gods. Wherever
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: you got that, on whatever source you get that from.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Let's try to go and focus on the one who
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: claimed to be the only one, true, hodly righteous God.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Concentrate on the claims of the Lord Jesus Christ. You
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: could take that from there. Listen. I always tell people
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: there's thousands of religions in the world, thousands of god
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: so called deities. Amen. So on one hand you have
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: the thousands. On the other hand, you have the one
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: who says he's the Way, the Truth, and the life.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: No one could get to the Father, the Father other
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: than through him. That claim is massive, that claims outstanding.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: That claim is exclusive. So I would challenge you just
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: to go read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Find out
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: who the Lord Jesus is, find out why he was crucified,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: find out why they were saying he was blaspheming and
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: calling himself God. Amen. And then if you want to
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: go through the forty five hundred other deities. All of
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: that a lot of time. I don't know how much
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: time we have on this earth, Amen, but that seems
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: to be like a lot of study. We want to
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: do religious comparisons. That's going to be a lot of
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: work as well. But we have AI. If you get
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: to the right source of AI, you get to the
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: right source of wherever you get information from, I believe
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: you can make a clear decision, clear conclusive decision of
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: who God really is. There's only one true, living, holy,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: righteous God, and he came in the form of a
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: man that named Jesus. Amen. So you're very welcome, Amen
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: for your time. But I was trying to find someone
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: who would help me logically, because sending me to what
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: I need help to understand understand is very confusing. Well,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: logic doesn't get you saved, Amen, trust me, the Lord
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: saves you. Amen. So if you want to continue, stay connected, amen,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: and I can direct you to some solid sources to
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: get this information. Amen. So God bless you all. I'm
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: out of time. I'm over time now, So car Kharkov
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: will be praying for you, my friend. I'll stay connected
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: to the morning. Devo. God bless you all. Got to
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: keep you all, and remember always that God is good. Peace,
