• 1:03
  Speaker 2: had an interesting, interesting problem with the network with the
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: radio network. We went over our bandwidth. In other words,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: we kind of broke our bandwidth.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much. That's a good problem to have,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: and that means that there's gonna be some additional costs
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: to pay for the network to continue going. But that's
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: that's a blessing. I know people were like, well, that's
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: really an issue that you have to pay more, you
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: have to do No, it's a blessing from the Lord.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: That means God is bringing more to the fold. He's
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: adding more listeners, He's adding more viewers to the network.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Amen. It's the Holy Spirit who draws people to himself. Amen.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Is God who draws people to.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Himself, and not when I'm doing that with the radio
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: network is doing Amen. So thank you so much for

• 2:10
  Speaker 2: comes in the morning when I turn on these lights
• 2:13

  Speaker 2: for coming to the morning, Devo my brow with my friend.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: So what is the true church?
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: And of course we're talking about the Christian Church, the
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Church of God, Amen, the Church of the God of Abraham,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Isaac and Jacob. The true Christian Church is not defined
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: by a building, right, I know you hear that a lot. Well,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: it's true. It's not defined by building, a denomination or tradition,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: but by people listen to this, who have genuinely placed
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: their faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. They're
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: born again by a Holy Spirit and live in obedience
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: to God's word. That's when you get to see a
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: true move of God. That's when you get to see
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: the true church and operation. That's when you get to
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: see the power, miracle, signs and wonders of Holy Spirit,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: God moving in the people of God. The people of
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: God bring the Church to the building buildings, not the church,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, but the billity. God blessed, Brol. It's
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: good to see you in the morning, Devo, God blessed.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much for coming through my bro and
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: my friend. So what is the true church? That's the
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: question for today's morning devo. We're gonna hit the scripture
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: found the First Corinthians, chapter number three, verse number eleven,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: First Corinthians, three eleven.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: We're gonna be there today.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: If you have any questions, comments, concerns, any prayer requests,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: please don't hesitate to leave another live chat.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: That's what we're here for. That's what we do. We connect. Amen.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: And also for those who are just listening online, so
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: one is what is he that org to celebrate a network?
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much for listening, and those on a
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: podcast as well. So let's pray first. After we pray,
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: we'll shut us out for like sixty seconds. Help me
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: shed us so as many people as possible, break this
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: algorithm jail that they got.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Me in, and let's go for it. Man, let's find
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: out what the true church is.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I know a lot of people are wondering why so
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: many denominations as a Christian.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Why this, why that? Why we are not.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: On the same page about this issue, Why we're not
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: on the same page about that issue. Well that's because
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: we're a human and God is enormous. God is beyond
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: finding out. That's why he revealed himself. No one can
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: find God. God revealed himself to us.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Amen. But now we have to grab on, hold on.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: To his word, trust his word, and be the true
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Church that God positioned here on this side of eternity,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: on this planet Earth.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Right. Thank you, Lord God for today.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: I thank you, Lord God for the blessing of being
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: able to get up and just devote some.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Time to you early in the morning. I pray Lord
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: got a.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Hedge of protection over myself, my wife, our daughters, our children,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: our grandchildren, our family members from the very youngest to
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: the very oldest, and everyone in between. Pray hedge of
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: protection over every single person that's listening and watching right
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: now as well. I pray Lord God that you will
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: continue to ignite us and put us on holy fire
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: and unite the Church and.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: The Body of Christ.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: I pray Lord God that we will no longer be
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: ignorant about the things of God, but we will be
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: in your word, inspired by your word, built up by
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: your word, and encouraged to move forward in your word
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: and know that You are the true, living, holy, righteous,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: loving God, and we are your body, the true Church.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I pray Lord God that you would give us understanding wisdom,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: that you would guide us continuously and give us ic
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: to see and ears to listen to everything that you're
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: doing in.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Our hearts and in our minds and then our lives.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: I pray by faith, Low God, for every single person
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: that they will receive healing to their body, strength to
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: their bones, and the powerful name of Jesus.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: I prayed.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: It's by faith in Jesus Holy Name. And those who
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: agree with say amen to the Amen. Right, let's go
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: forward sixty seconds something. We share this up. When we
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: get back, we'll answer. Try to answer this question. What
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: is the true Church today in the morning? Do what
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: I'll be right back. Hey man, we're back. Let's go
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: for it, ladies and gentlemen. What is the true Church?
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Think about it? Think about it real good, because what's
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: going on on a lot of these.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Mega ministry television shows, I don't know what you want
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: to call them.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: It's kind of crazy and it's kind of like confusing
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: the whole meaning of the true Church.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Right. You see all these weird things going on.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: On TV, and it's just not a good representation of
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: what God is really doing in the true Church. It's
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: just a representation of what God is not doing.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: In the true Church.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Amen, So be careful what you're watching. Be careful of
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: the numbers and the quantity of people. Look for quality,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: not quantity.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: You could be in the church of thirty people and
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: receive the Holy Spirit. God be moving through that right,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: and you'll be doing amazing things because of what God
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: is doing through you. And then you can see a
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: church of thirty thousand people and see a whole bunch
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: of shows and just a lot of things being forced,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: some untrue teachings, some unbiblical teachings, and because it's a
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: big crowd, people deem that to be the true church
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: because of the number, and people confuse the blessing and
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: the quantity over the quality of the preaching and the teaching.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: And it's just just be mindful and be careful, Amen.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Because when I was first a believer, when I first
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: got saved, I thought it was about the number of
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: people that were in the church building. That meant God
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: was blessing all that church is blessed. Look they have this, that,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: and the third. So I will always think that that
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: was the blessing of the true Church, not understanding at
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: the time that the Bible literally says when two of
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: them are gathered in His name, right, he will be
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: in the mist. That means he will be in us,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: working through us, working a powerful thing through the true
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: body of Christ.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Amen. So be careful with that.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: But the one I see you, God blessed, and he
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: sends a blessing to everybody that's tuned in, and a
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: good morning to everybody.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: God bless you. Bro thank you for coming through. It's
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: good to see you in the morning. Devo.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: So let me get this ready on the screen. Aymen,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: I'm a little fleshed this morning, can't you tell. I
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: woke up shocked because I felt like I didn't sleep.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: When that alarm went off, I was like, did I sleep?
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: It was one of those My mind was racing. Couldn't
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: sleep a man. And then when that lawn went off,
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: I was like, wait, it foret like five minutes. I
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: felt like a cat nap. But it was real, man,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: when that law went off, it was real. So I'm
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: a little bit flustered this morning.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: But God is scared.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get through it right together. I know it
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: was early. This is really early for me.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Naturally at night our supernaturally, I'm a morning bird it man,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: If that makes any sense, What is the true church.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Let's go for it. We get to the scripture so
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: we could read it, so I could get out of
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: the way all this question and let the Lord answer
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: it through his word. First commit then chapter three, verse
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: number eleven. For no one can lay a foundation other
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: than the one which is already laid.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Which is Jesus Christ.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna read that again one Corinthians, Chapter three, verse
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: number eleven for those in the back.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: But no one can lay a foundation other than the
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: one which is already laid, which is Jesus Christ. So
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: it seems to me that the apostle pause telling their church.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Now listen, if you're gonna start something different, you're gonna
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: try to start developing things, or you're gonna start doing
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: things that are not in the scripture, then you're doing
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: another foundation.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: You're building another foundation. Amen.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: But there's already a foundation, and that foundation is Jesus.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Christ, the Lord.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Have you noticed in the scriptures that nowhere does it
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: say that Jesus died to start a religion. Nowhere does
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: it say that Jesus died to start a church. Nowhere
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: does to say that Jesus died told start a denomination.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: What it says is that for God so loved the world,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: that whoever calls upon his name, whoever believes in Him,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: should not perished, everlasting life. I'm paraphrasing Jesus for sent
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: so the Father loves, the Son, saves, and Holy Spirit Gods.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: When you see the True Church in motion, you get
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: to see those three in one God operating among the people.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Never are you going to see some random stuffing on.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Never you're get to see some unbiblical actions being celebrated. Nowhere,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: You're going to see none of that, Andy man. What
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: you're going to see is the True Church of God,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: the Living Church. We're an organism, not an organization. We're organized,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: but we're not an organization like the world organizes. We
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: are organism, a living, breathing temple of God moving across
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: the earth. Amen, if that makes any sense to you.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Right since the joyce, I see you. Good morning, God,
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Bless you, God, bless you in your family as well,
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: and thank you for the blessings to the group. And
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: thank you for coming through my system, my friend. So,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ is the foundation of the true Church. I've
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: been to churches right, visited churches that they forgot one
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: very important thing to let Jesus in. It was all
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: about money, ties, offering, about the preacher stories, very little
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: bit of scripture, and the scripture that was shared was
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: actually off. In other words, they were misinterpreting or miss
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: understanding the scriptures. They're out there unfortunately, huge buildings, huge
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: parking lots, massive amount of people, but under misguided leadership.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: A Men, thank God that I'm part of a local
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: church that knows the scriptures, that preaches the scriptures.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Right, and that we can move forward together, grow together
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: knowing that there's one God, one spirit, one faith, one church. Amen,
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: and move forward that way. And that's the sign of
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: a true church. And what God is doing, Amen.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: He would do it through the least of those. Right.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: He's not looking for followers. My spiritual that always tells
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: me this, God's not looking for followers. I mean, excuse me.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: God's not looking for leaders. He's looking for followers.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: He's not looking for leaders, He's looking for followers. It
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: makes a lot of sense if you know the scriptures
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: and you read the scriptures. So the true church is
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: built on Jesus, built on the fact that the Lord died,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: he resurrected, and he teached he taught his disciples, right, Matthew, Mark, Luke,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: and John. You can see Jesus moving and being the
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: rabbi a man. Anyone claiming to be the Church, but
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: denying Christ's divinity, denying Christ deity, denying Christ as Lord
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: and Savior, isn't part of the true Church. And you
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: can see that in so many different religions. They say, oh,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Jesus was a man, he was a prophet, he was
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: a good man, he was a good teacher. Other denominations
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: don't even acknowledge the Lord Jesus. But if you see that,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: and you see the denial of who Jesus is, then
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: that's an indicator that you're not part of the true Church.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: You're not part of the body of Christ. Get up
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: out of there.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Run fast, get out, Amen, and not filled with the
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Holy Spirit. There's some cults out there, some actors of
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: colts that are out there that they don't even acknowledge
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: the Holy Spirit. They don't believe in the Holy Spirit
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: as a person. They believe and acknowledge Holy Spirit as
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: a force, almost like star wars. Right, let the force
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: be with you. But we're not talking about a force.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: When we're talking about Holy Spirit. We're talking about the comforter.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: We're talking about the counselor. We're talking about the helper.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: We're talking about the paraclete. Right, we're talking about the
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: third person of the Triune God.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is a person and the Holy Spirit.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: When people say the power all the Holy Spirit, they're
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: talking about the activity of the Spirit. When we talk
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: about Holy Spirit, turning about the person of God. Amen,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: good morning, brother Frank, I see you.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Good morning.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: God blessed in your family as well, my bro so
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: born again believers and reason why people don't like, Oh
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: you're one of those born.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Agains, well, Jesus.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: They must not like what Jesus said, because Jesus said,
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: you must be born again to inherit the kingdom of
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: God John three to three. Very truly, I tell you,
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: no one can see the Kingdom of God unless they
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: are born again. Yes, there has to be a born
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: again experience. If you're a true believer. If you're born again,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: then you are of God. If you're not born again,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: then you are of this world. John chapter three and three.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: If you don't believe me, I know a lot of
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: people don't know that's there.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Well, because a lot of people don't read scriptures unfortunately.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: I'm here just to inspire you to read the scriptures
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: for yourself.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: You can have it on your phone, you can have
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: the written word. I suggest always to have some of
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: these in your home. Amen, the written word, because the
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: digital platforms are changing wording, doing it real quietly, but
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: they're changing some wording. And then since people are relying
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: on their phones, on their mobile devices, on apps, they
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: get to actually go a little bit astray. You know,
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: little by little, if you're reading the wrong scripture, if
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: you're reading things that are not even there anymore, Amen,
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: like words that are not are missing, that not there anymore,
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Little by little, you're gonna start drifting.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: But if you have the written word of God. Amen.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I don't think the nanotechnology is there yet. I could
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: be wrong.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: That can change the written words that are in your Bibles,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: your written bibles. So go ahead and open up your
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: written bibles if you have one. If you don't have one,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: a man, get one or two or three. I have
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: like five or six in miles, all kinds of different versions.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Membership in the church is not about a building. Membership
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: of the church is about a body.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: When you're a member of the church. You are a
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: part of the united Body of Christ. If you're a
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: member of a church just because of a certificate or whatever,
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: it's cute, you know. I don't think there's really anything
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: extreamly wrong with that, but I don't think it's necessary. Amen,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Membership in the Church is not about a building or tradition.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: It's spiritual rebirth through repentance and faith, Lord Jesus, repentance.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Those messages needs to come back to the Body of Christ.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Need to come back to the megachurch. Repent and be baptized. Amen,
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: repent and be saved. There's no salvation with our repentance.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: The true body of Church is a repented.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Body.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: We repented, returned from our wickedness and turned to the
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: righteousness of God. And that's when you'll find the true
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Church of God. That's what you will find, the act
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: of true Church of God in repentance, unity and the
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: spirit right. Not just unity and the denomination you're part of.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: I see there's pamphlets and you know, a whole bunch
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: of different denomination and they have their their creed right,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: that have their rules and regulations, that have what they
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: believe in. All that and some denominations actually tell you listen.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: If you don't memorize this, you're not part of us. Okay,
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: it's all right, you know, if you want to do
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: it that right way. But I truly believe the more
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: scripture we memorized, we will be more receptive and man like.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: This is a popular post going around. If God is
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: making you wait, do what waiters do and serve right. Serve,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Serve other people while you're waiting to get understanding why
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: you're waiting to be the true member of the true church.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: A man serve others, read guy's word, apply his word,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: and then you'll be part of something amazing, part of
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: something greater than even yourself. If Jian chapter four, verses
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: four and five, the Bible says there is one body
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: and one Spirit, one Lord, one faith, one baptism.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Why because it's only one church.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: The true Church of God is the body of Christ
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: laid on the foundation of Jesus Christ.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: He is the foundation. Amen.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: If somebody's telling you otherwise, you might want to check
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: that out for yourself. Don't be fooled into believing everything
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: that's being preached out there. Compare what's being said to
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: what's already written. Amen, and you'll be fine.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: It's this is no scare tactic I'm trying to do.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying to open your eyes to some things.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Right now, the whole world knows that we're supposed to
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: be the difference.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: We're supposed to be different than what the world is doing. Amen.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: They know when somebody ain't real, right, you heard the
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: expression in the streets, right, real recognize is real. They
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: also recognize who's fate. So we the world's waiting for
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: the sons of God to rise up. The world is
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: waiting for the Church of God to rise up. They
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: know is a bright light shining in us and through us.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: They're just waiting for that light to overcome their darkness,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: maybe even their territory, their area, their neighborhood, a man,
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: their city. So be the true Church and let your
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: light show sign that the people will know that we
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: belong to the living, holy, righteous, loving God, and we
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: are definitely assaulted the earth and the light of this world.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: So the true Church is not limited to one denomination. Surprise, right,
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: it includes believers in those domination denominations. Locations are different, right,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: You know when people actually what church you go to
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: I go to this church in Allentown, I go to
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: this church in Beflo, I go to this church in Easton,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: I go to this church in Texas. And you know,
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: they describe the church great, right, But we're one faith,
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: one church, right, one baptism, one Lord, one Savior, And
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: so that means that anytime the doors open, we should
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: feel right at home. And although I know a lot
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: of people and leadership, they get a little testy when
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: they see their members visiting other churches. Amen, as long
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: as it's the Church of God, it's another room. It's
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: another room in the body of Christ, and it's enough
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: room for everybody to go.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Amen.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Church hopping, I'm not about that, not promoting that. Only
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: been to two churches my whole entire saved life, and
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: I got saved in two thousand and one.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: But I have visited.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Many churches throughout my saved life, and some of them
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: feel right at home, and other than others feel like,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: oh man, well, let me just do what I gotta
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: do and then be kind and courteous, but then buy
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: out and pray for that congregational for that church.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: Right. You know what I'm saying about. If you visit
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: the other churches.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: A true church teaches and submits to the authority of
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: the pastor No, a true church teaches and submits to
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: the authority of the denomination. Nope, No, the true church
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: teaches and submits to the authority of Scripture, not human
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: traditions or opinions. Ouch, that's too early in the morning
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: to deal with ray. But that's what the that's what basically.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Actual.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Chapter two, verses forty two says they devoted themselves to
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: the apostles, teaching and to fellowship.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Amen. I'm gonna leave it there for now. Amen. We
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: could probably do.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: A part two either next time or another time. I'm
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: just allowing hold the Spirit to move and allow him
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: to teach and preach, and I'll follow his lead.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Amen.
