  Speaker 2: They got encouraged, and let's find out why this is

  Speaker 2: gonna be one of my favorite churches to look into
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: because we're gonna glean so much from them. I believe
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: every pastor should do a study on the book, well
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: not the book, but the Church of Philadelphia to a
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: good in depth study in Revelations three through seven. As
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: a matter of fact, I decided to do a part
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: one and part two to this because this church shows
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: us that it's possible that when we go before the
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Throne not to hear a rebuke, you know what I mean, Like,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: if they can do it, it's possible. So let's look

  Speaker 2: the Book of Revelation. We got this church and one
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: more church we're gonna look at, and then we're gonna
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: go to the third section of the book. The Book
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: of Revelation is broken up in three sections, the things
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: that you have seen, the things that are, and the
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: things that shall be after this. So right now we
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: are in in the Church Age. The seven churches represent
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: the seven church ages that are represented in the seven Letters.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: We know that the seven is the letter of completion.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: So once we complete the Church Age, and then one
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: of the worst periods that will ever be shall hit
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: the earth, and that is in the New Testament, the
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Great Tribulation, and in the Old Testament it's called the
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Great Indignation. Look it up, do a powerful study on it.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Because I believe that we're faced with this and our generation. Amen.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: So let's go before Heavenly Father and prayer. Heavenly Father,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: we thank you for this time and this opportunity to
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: dig into your word. Help us to look faithfully into it.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Help us faithfully and graft your word in our hearts.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Help us to faithfully mix your word with our faith.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Help us to be obedient to it. Thank you for
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: the blessing that is attached to the Book of Revelation.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Open up our understanding everyone who wanted to understand it better,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: everyone who really wants to learn and dive into it.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: We ask a God that they will tune into this
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: podcast and that we will be able to do that together.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: And we asked this in Jesus' name, and Guy's people
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: said Amen and Amen. All right, so I'm gonna dive
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: into it. First of all, we're gonna read it, and
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: then we're gonna break it down. So if you're with
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: me with your Bibles, your highlighters and notepads, let's start
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in verse seven and it says, and to the Angel
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: of the Church of feeling death right, these things says
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: he who is holy, he who is true, he who
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: has the key of David, He who opens and no
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: one shuts, and shuts and no one opens. I know
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: your works. See I have sat before you an open door,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: and no one can shut it. Or you have a
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: little strength to have kept my word and have not
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: denied my name. Indeed, I will make those of the
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews and are
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: not but lie. Indeed, I will make them come and
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: worship before your feet, and to know that I have
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: loved you because you have kept my command to persevere.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: I also will keep you from the hour of trial,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: which shall come upon the whole earth, to test those
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: who dwell on the earth. Behold, I am coming quickly.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Hold fast what you have, that no one may take
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: your crown. He who overcomes, I will make him a
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: go out no more. I will write on him the
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: name of my God, in the name of the City
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: of my God, and he Jerusalem, which cometh down out
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: of heaven from my God, and I will write on
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: him my new name. Do you as an ear, let
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: him hear what the spirit says to the churches. Amen,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: write all right, let's go back, Let's break this on down,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: all right? So if you go with me back to
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: verse seven and to the Angel of the Church at Philadelphia. Right,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: these things says, he who is holy, he who is true,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: he who has the key of David, He who opens
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: and no one shuts. It shuts and no one opens. Amen.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: As I said before in the other episodes, one of
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: the things that he does is he describes himself in
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: these letters. Right, everything starts with him and everything ends
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: with him. Now, sometimes it relates to the church, what
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: they're dealing with, what they're going through, and may relate
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: to judgment how that church will be judged or dealt with.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Because whatever we need, He is the becoming one. He
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: is the answer to all situations in circumstances in life.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: If you find your life lacking something, or if you
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: find yourself in a weird season maybe God is correcting
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: you or anything like that, pray and ask God. Ask
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: God to reveal himself, and he will describe who he
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: is and what you need at the moment. Amen. Now,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Jesus reveals himself as a one who holds the key
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: of David. Now we're gonna actually go to Isaiah chapter
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: twenty two, Verse twenty two, because it speaks of divine
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: authority and control over access to God's kingdom. When he
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: opens a door and no one can shut it. And
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: this is well, let me read it first, okay, Isaiah,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Chapter twenty two, Verse twenty two. I will place on
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: his shoulder the key to the house of David. What
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: he opens, no one can shut, and what he shuts,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: no one can open. Now, this is a reference to
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: the Messiah, right, So Jesus is claiming the fulfillment of
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: that scripture. She says, a, I am the Messiah. This
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: is me. I have the key of David. It speaks
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: of divine authority and control over the access of God's kingdom. Amen.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: This verse right here reminds me of all the times
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: God has opened doors for us here in his hot nation.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: When he moves haters can't block it at all. And
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: if he closes it, don't fight it. Just trust in
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: God's wisdom. When God opens a door, nobody can shut it.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: And I believe that this door was open because this
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: church remained faithful, which we're going to look into. And
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: also we're gonna look into the secret sauce of this church.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: How come this church did not get rebuked? Remember that's
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: the question that is in the atmosphere as we go
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: through this podcast, what is their secret sauce? Like how
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: come they didn't get rebuked and beloved? I believe Now
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: this is my opinion, and as we go through these
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: through the Bible together, I'm gonna share my opinion versus
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: what is the word? Because my opinion, you can take
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: it or leave it. Right. I'm not saying, thus says
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: the Lord, if it's my opinion, because I want to
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: provoke you to look it up, to study and for
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: God to give you the revelation, because I want to
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: be careful not to add to or take away from
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: the word.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: This is just my opinion, But I believe that this
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: right here would be the same structure or the same
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: style on when we stand before God on judgment day. Right,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: the Bible says that it's appointed unto man wants to die.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Then after that is the judgment. Now we know God
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: is the judge. All judgment has been given to Jesus
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Christ himself. He's going to judge the whole world. He's
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: going to judge all the nations, and the Bible tells
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: us time and time again would be judged according to
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: our works because he sees the motives, He sees the
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: reason why we do what we do. Like Jesus sees everything,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: his eyes are like a flame of fire. No one's
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: gonna be able to run game, no one's gonna be
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: able to lie, No one's gonna be able to able
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: to get out of anything on that date of judgment.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: But he's gonna look at us one day. Now, there's
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: two judgments. The one, if you want to look up,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: it's called the beams se to Christ. You'll find that
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: in the Book of Corinthians. And this judgment is concerning
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: the eternal rewards. Only the true believers, those who are
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: going to heaven are gonna go to this judgment, because
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: it's not a judgment concerning your salvation. Is not whether
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: you're gonna go to hell or hell or I mean
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: heaven or hell. And that it's a judgment concerning if
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: you're gonna win or lose some of the rewards. And
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: we're gonna look at that in this chapter when he
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: tells us, don't let any man take your crown, right,
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: and so what basically, our work's gonna be judged by fire,
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: and so either we're producing wood, he stubble or we're
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: producing gold, silver and precious stone. Wants to fire hits it?
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: What do you think is gonna be consumed? Yeah, you
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: guessed it. The wood hein stubble. Now, if we are
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: producing gold, silver and precious stone out of our lives,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: and then yes, we will gain rewards. And right now
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: you might be thinking, well, I just want to get in.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: I don't care about a reward. But trust me, on
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: that day, you are gonna care about your rewards. It
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: matters how we live in this life is going to
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: determine if we win or lose rewards. Now, the second
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: judgment is a great White throne judgment which is definitely
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: described in this book, the Book of Revelation. I believe
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: it's chapter twenty, and that is those who are gonna
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: go to Hell, all those who are condemned by God,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: all those who are headed to the second death, which
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: is a lake of fire. That is the judgment that
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: they will face. And that is a critical judgment. And
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: I pray that none of us on this podcast, those
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: under the sign of my voice, that none of us
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: will find ourselves in that line. Amen, hallelujah. All right,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: So where we're at? Okay, Yeah, we were talking about
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: the doors that God has opened nobody can shut. And
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: so when God gives you those opportunities, people are gonna hate.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: People are gonna get jealous upset. That just comes with
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: the territory. Don't worry about the haters. It could be pastors, churches,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: brothers and sisters, those close to us, which seems weird, right,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: But those closest to us could be the ones who
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: gives us the most opposition. Just understand that God has
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: opened that door a man, just stay faithful. Now let's
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: go to verse eight. I know your works right, This
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: is where I'm getting it from the date of judgment.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: I believe we're gonna hear those words. We will all
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: hear it. I know your works. See. I have set
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: before you an open door, and no one can shut it.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Or you have a little strength, have kept my word
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: and have not denied my name. Philadelphia may have been small,
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: they who were faithful. God honors even a little strength
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: when it's used to obey him. They kept his word
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: and boldly declared his name. Family. This is encouragement. I
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: want to encourage the remnant. You may feel weak, overwhelmed,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: but if you stay faithful, God says to opportunity in
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: front of you, that not everybody can take it. Amen,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: he gives you more opportunity to minister, to open up
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: more doors, to stay faithful and to be honest. I
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: believe we just found the secret sauce be Now, what
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: is the difference between this any other churches? Now, I
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: believe it was was it Sardists the persecuted church, or
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: maybe that was a dead church, but I think it
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: was Diatyra, that's the purpose persecuted church. I believe that
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: church they did not receive any rebukes at all from
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: the Lord as well, but that church they had their
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: hands full with persecution. During that church age, we had
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: like six million brothers and sisters that paid the price
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: to love Jesus with their life. They were killed, they
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: were martyred, and so Jesus didn't lay any other burden
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: on that church. And then we see the other churches,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: just about every other one got rebuked. He had this
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: against them, he had that against them. They lost their
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: first love. They tolerated Jezebel, the doctrine of Jesebel. They
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: tolerate bail them like corrupting processes started happening in those churches.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: And then we talked about church discipline. Right, we talked
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: about not tolerating evil. See, a healthy body has to
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: purge yourself when evil begins to corrupt the church. The
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: church gotta be able to kick people out, right, gotta
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: gotta kill the it says. The Bible says, a little
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: leaven will leven the whole lump. And we understand loving
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: people and want to be loving and being a blessing
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: to them. But the loving thing would be to correct
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: them so that they could pure so that God can
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: purify their lives. Amen. But now this church, they have
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: you guessed what the secret sauceage. Yet, all right, I'm
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: gonna go ahead and tell you. It says right here
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: in verse eight, you have kept my word. Remember here
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: on the podcast, we believe that the grafted word is
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: able to save your soul. Now, I haven't noticed any
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: other church that has kept his word. And see, this
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: is going to be the part too of this episode.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: I really want to look deep into it, right because
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: I think it's worthy. I think, Wow, this church did
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: not receive a rebuke from the Lord. Why they gained
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: I believe they gained their little stripp because they kept
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: their word. Now, I want to explain something about the
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: church today. You know, I want to explain what I
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: think a healthy church looks like versus a church that
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: not necessarily well. Of course, we know there's unhealthy churches
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: out there. But I believe that if when you look
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: into scripture, we need to make a precept line up online,
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: precept upon precept approach to the Word of God. What
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to say is what I'm doing now. I
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: believe every pastor should lead their congregation verse by verse,
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: chapter by chapter, be the word of God, because it
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: is the word of God that is able to save
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: your soul. Is the ingrafted word that is able to
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: save your soul. It is the word of God. Like
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: look like look into it. Look read Psalms chapter one, nineteen,
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: and it tells you the value of the word of God.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: Every word word of God is pure. The word is
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: a lamp unto our feet and a light onto our path.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: That if we hide the word in our hearts, we
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: will not sin against God. How can a young man
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: keep his way pure by hiding your word in our hearts?
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: This is our weapon. When Jesus was tempted, he rebuked
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: the devil with the word of God, and so this
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: church kept his word. And there's a lot of pastors
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: out there. They preach their emotions, right, they preach, they're
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: always telling the people what they need to be doing
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: for God. Right, But you got to teach the people
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: what to do for God, Like, how are they going
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: to do whatever for God if they really don't know?
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: And I don't think a church should celebrate the pastor.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, you can celebrate the pastor living a
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: faithful life and living integrity, and you know, you have
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: a pastor that's keeping a standard. But what I think
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: is great is a congregation that is keeping the standard.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: The pastor is supposed to lead the congregation and equip
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: the saints for the work of the ministry. Now, a
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: lot of pastors that preach their emotions, they put a
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: lot of themselves in it. They need to disappear and
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: allow God's word to work on the people. A healthy church.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: Jesus said that his pastors are to feed the flock.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: That's it. Feed the fuck. We don't need all that
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: extra We don't need pastors in their feelings or in
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: the emotions because it's not their church anyway. Right, This
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: is the Lord's church. These are the Lord's people in
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: the Lord's sheep. And so if the sheep are feeding,
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: if they're eating on a healthy diet, and they're feeding themselves,
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: and they're going to reproduce naturally, right, they're going to reproduce.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: It says it the Book of Acts the Lord added
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: to the church daily, like, that's where you get the
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: open doors. That's where you get the open opportunities. And
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: I want to say that we at His hot nation
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: are blessed to get so many open doors come in
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: our way. But the way that we're gonna sustain that
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: is by keeping the word. Amen. So I pray that's
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: a blessing to y'all. And like I said, we're gonna
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: do a part two on this on We're gonna look
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: at what does it look like to actually keep his
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: word so that we can keep these open doors. Amen,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: keep these doors opening up. This is encouraging to me.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: All right, Let's go to the next verse, chapter three,
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: verse nine through ten. Indeed, I will make the of
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: the I will make those excuse me. Indeed, I would
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: make those of the Synagogue of Satan come in a
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: worship before your feet, because you have kept my command
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: to persevere. I also will keep you from the hour
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: of trial. Jesus promises vindication and protection. He's acknowledging their suffering.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: He also says that he will shield them from becoming
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: global trial, likely a reference to the Great Tribulation. Now,
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: this is another reason why I believe in pre trip.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: We had this discussion a couple of episodes ago. I
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: was talking to my brother's own three about it. I
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: would tell him to, you know, do a thorough study.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Let's see what the Bible says. See if you don't
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: know your word, if you're not a keeper of the word,
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: if you don't even graph the word, if you don't
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: understand the word, and then you get caught up in
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: all these debates, all these human opinions, these philosophies, and
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: all these thoughts, and people will twist the Scripture to
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: their own destruction. As a word, a guy says right here,
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: it says that he will keep this church from this trial,
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: keep it from why because they have kept the word,
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: because they were a keeper of the word, they were spared.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: So if you really look at this logically, if you
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: are not a keeper of the word, then you will
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: go into the Great Tribulation. So the churches that think
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: they're going into the Great Tribulation, I think they're not
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: keeping the word right. Why would he say I will
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: spare you that there is not an opportunity that God
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: will spare us. And also it shows in all scripture
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: he is able to separate the wicked from the righteous.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: We see that with the story of Abraham and Lot.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: When the city of Sadamen Goamora was burnt up, Abraham said,
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: would you spare the whole city? If you find ten
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: righteous in the sea? And God is just right where
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: the bride? Why would he allow his bride to face
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: this global wrath? Like, why you treat your bride that way?
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: So I don't know. Those are some nuggets that I
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: wanted to drop. When people confront you with pre trip
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: post trip is up to you to decide. But according
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: to scripture, according to what we just read, this church
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: will not have to go through it. He will keep
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: you from it. See, when you stay loyal through the pressure,
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: God steps in. He's not just watching the situation. He's
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: rewarding you with the deliverance and with the promise that's good.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: At verse eleven, behold, I am coming quickly hold fast
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: what you have, that no one may take your crown.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: Jesus urges them to hold fast. Now, remember he's not
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: gonna put any extra burdens, which is a blessing, because
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: that's one thing that religion will do, is they put
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: burdens upon burdens among people. Remember the Sage sees in
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: the Pharisees, they said that you put burdens on men,
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: but you won't look the burden with your finger. But
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: you put all these burdens on people. And it's also
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: says that you're shutting up the doors of heaven. God
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: doesn't want his people burdened down right. He carries our burden.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: He's the burden bearer. What he instructs us to do
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: is just keep what you have. And what you have
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: is Him, is a gift your faith. Salvation is a gift.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: You're saved by grace through faith. It's a gift not
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: of works that anyone should boast, right an Ephesians, So
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: hold on to the gift like this is. I don't
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: want to say it's so easy, but God has removed
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: our burdens from our salvation. Just keep it. Just keep
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: what I gave you is what he's saying. Now, the crown,
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: like I said before, is not salvation. It's your reward.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: You can't lose your salvation if you're in Christ. But
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: you can forfeit your reward if you quit, if you
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: give up, if you don't stay faithful to the call
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: that God has placed on your life. This is not
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: the time to slow down. We gotta hold the line,
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: keep the faith. Don't let fatigue steal what God's got
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: for you. Amen. And I'm saying this to his hot nation.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Now is the time to get to that front line. Amen.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: God has got so much in store for us, and
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: it's right here in his word. This is this secret.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna drench us with the secret sauce here on
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: this podcast. Now, Verse twelve and thirteen. He who overcomes,
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: I will make him a pillar at the temple of
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: my God. I will write on him the name of
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: my God, in the name of the City of my God. Now,
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: pillars are strong and permanent fixtures, and Jesus promises stability
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: in his eternal kingdom. Now the names signify identity. Your
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: name is your identity. God is giving you his stamp
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: of ownership in love. He's saying, you belong to me forever.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: And that's not just theology. That is deep relationship. The
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: world may label you, but in eternity God gives you
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: a new name. The world may laby, may want to
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: label you man little man, want to put you in
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: a certain category, but God himself says that he will
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: give you a new name. Now this right here he
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: speaks of the relationship aspect of our salvation. See, religion
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: is one of the coolest jokes placed on mankind. Religion
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: is a works based salvation. Religion is like saying, hey,
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: I want to come and live in your house. I came,
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: I emptied your trash, I rake some leaves, I cut
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: your year, your yard, I did all these good works.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: Can I come and live with you and move in?
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: And you don't know who this person is. He's a stranger,
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: Like I don't know if you you can't come and
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: live with me. The relationship is okay, this is my
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: child who was born and raised in my house. And
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: he you know this, what I have belongs to him.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: This is his inheritance. That's why we need to be
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: born and getting into God's family. And I like the
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: picture of him writing his name, his new name on
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: our forehead. Right, they're writing the name of God. That
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: speaks of deep intimacy. Have you ever been in a
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: relationship where someone has given you a promised ring? Or
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: maybe you've tattooed somebody's name on your arm, or or
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: somebody has given you something that belongs to him, maybe
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: a necklace, or you know, a best friend or maybe
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: a spouse, a boyfriend and girlfriend. And of course we
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: see this in marriage. Right, you give your bride your ring.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: That's relationship, that's intimacy. He's gonna put his name, He's
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: gonna write to his meeting up on you. That's how
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: much he wants to love us, how much he wants
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: to be close to us. And this is how important
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: it is for us to spend time with. Allright, Heavenly Father.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: All right, I think it's time for a quick music
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: break and it will come back shortly and keep going.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: He's hot. Radio, Rain on me, Rain meant me, rain
• 35:39

  Speaker 2: Rain on me. That's our brother Hovey and Alex Jean
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: right here live on this His High radio podcast. I'm
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: your boy, I'm your host, mister is Hot, and now
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: we're doing a special edition of this faithful church. We
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: want to take a deep look into it. We want
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: to spend some time. This is a church we want
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: to join, right. This is a church that gets on
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: here at eleven o'clock and jumps on the His Hot
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: Radio podcast, that is able to save our souls. Right,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: this is the church that has a little strength, and man,
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: a little strength in the hand of the Lord has
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: a lot. He can work a lot with a church
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: like this. And we're actually gonna I think we're gonna
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: just skip the other segments for today, and we're just
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: gonna close out, and we're gonna look a little deeper
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: into this church because I think this is timely, especially
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: for the times we live in here right now. The
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Bible tells us that many will walk away from the faith.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Men will with itching ears, will heap up teachers right
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: that will itch their ear. Pastors today are afraid of
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: their congregation. They're afraid to speak the truth. They're afraid,
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: and we can even see it on social media. There's
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: brothers that are holding the line. And when the faithful
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: pastor gets up there, people get on social media and
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: they start persecuting the pastor because he spoke the word.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: Say something against homosexual allergy or LBGT, or say something
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: about living life, living right, not cheating on your wife
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: or or you know, not stealing money or anything like that.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Any One out there that is holding up the standard,
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: I want to shout you out his hot nation, and
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: we support you and support you here on the podcast.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: We want to stay faithful to the word. We want
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: to be that church that received no rebuke. Like we
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: just read through this church. We just read through this
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: through these verses. We did not see that one rebuke
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: the other church is Jesus says, I have this against you,
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: I have that against you, and I have to say
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: that my walk with the Lord, I've had multiple things
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: that I've had the Lord had to correct me on. Man,
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: It's like, come on, it's possible. It's possible not to
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: receive a rebuke, like it's right here in this church,
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: not to get a correction, just to have a door
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: of opportunities open blessing after blessing, opportunity after opportunity. That's
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: why I want to look deeper into this church and see, Okay,
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: what have they done that we need to implement, that
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: we need to do. And I think of like even
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: in the Book of Corinth on the Book of Acts,
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: right when Paul was going through certain cities establishing churches
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: and you know, evangelizing as an apostle, he said that
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: I can't think of actually where it's at, but look
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: it up. He's talking about the Brians, right. The Brians
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: were more noble than the Corinthians, I believe, he said,
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: because they studied the word to see whether what Paul
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: was teaching was true or not. How many people just
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: take it at face value what their pastors say, right,
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: or they go to other people's opinions. Right, Yeah, the
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: word might say this, but I'm gonna go to grandma
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: or grandpa and see what they say. Then they say
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: something that is totally not lining up of the word.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: But we want to bleed them over the word like
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: that's dangerous, and there's a lot of people who are
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: doing that. We need to keep the word. We need
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: to be faithful to what the Word of God says
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: what God tells us. I'm part of our relationship with him,
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: spending time with him and keeping his word. And then
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: now this is Philadelphia, faithful church. Be encouraged. Even if
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: the weak, your faithfulness matters to God. God sees your faithfulness.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: God will reward your faithfulness. So stay tuned on our
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: next podcast, We're gonna look even deeper into this church.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: I know we'll stay at this. We'll stay in this
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: church as long as as we need to write. Hey man,
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: I think it's well worth our time. I think we
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: can go before the day of judgment and we can
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: hear nothing but encouragement, game rewards. I believe that these
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: open doors we can experience even here and even on
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: the day of judgment, because he said that they are
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: going to rule with him when he returns. Amen. All right, y'all,
