- 0:31Speaker 2: Idols in the hats.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Idols in the hats, Ezekiel fourteen, reading from these two
- 0:41Speaker 1: and word of the Lord came on to me, saying,
- 0:44Speaker 1: Son of.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Man, these men have set up idols.
- 0:48Speaker 1: These men have set up their idols in their hearts
- 0:52Speaker 1: and put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their face.
- 0:56Speaker 2: Should I be quiet off at all by them?
- 1:00Speaker 1: That means, that means it is difficult to inquire of God,
- 1:04Speaker 1: to get the counsel of God when there are idols
- 1:08Speaker 1: locked up in a man's heart. Now, the word idols
- 1:12Speaker 1: is translated in Debra as guilu guilu, which serves as
- 1:17Speaker 1: a term that encapsulates the practice of idolatry. So, in
- 1:22Speaker 1: the context of this message, idols in the heart are
- 1:26Speaker 1: those things that takes away the consciousness of God in
- 1:32Speaker 1: the heart of a man face John five twenty one,
- 1:36Speaker 1: keep yourselves from idols. Second Corinthians six sixteen. And what
- 1:42Speaker 1: agreement had a temple of God with idols? That is,
- 1:47Speaker 1: for our body is the temple of God. Our body
- 1:50Speaker 1: is the temple of the Living God. In the Temple
- 1:52Speaker 1: of God, nothing is meant, nothing can replace, nothing should
- 1:57Speaker 1: replace the consciousness. Wherever a man finds himself, wherever a
- 2:01Speaker 1: man goes to, he carries the consciousness of God within
- 2:06Speaker 1: the place of extreme admiration, love, and reverence for God.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Idols are materials, things that we find difficult letting go of,
- 2:21Speaker 1: that can easily damage, that can easily leave a whole
- 2:26Speaker 1: wound the soul of a man. Yes, this means the
- 2:30Speaker 1: soul is attached to it. Now, there are two things
- 2:35Speaker 1: that drives the manifestation of these idols, the expression of
- 2:43Speaker 1: idols in the hat. The first is mentioned by profess
- 2:48Speaker 1: symbol to sol and that is stubbornness. So when one
- 2:53Speaker 1: is stubborn, we realize that the hat, the hat is hardened.
- 2:58Speaker 1: I remember the Bible talking about the hat snared with
- 3:00Speaker 1: hot iron. So that is the stubbornness. First sum of fifteen,
- 3:06Speaker 1: verse twenty three. For rebellion is as the scene of witchcraft.
- 3:11Speaker 1: This someone speaking and stubbornness, stubbornness, stubbornness is as iniquity
- 3:18Speaker 1: and idolattery. It's as what iniquity and what.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Idol lattery that means it.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Brings is the sign or one of the things that
- 3:28Speaker 1: sponsors idolattery. That is why it is difficult when you
- 3:32Speaker 1: tell somebody to break, to leave, to put an end,
- 3:36Speaker 1: is difficult for the person to say no, to put
- 3:38Speaker 1: an end to idolatry, to put an end to that habit,
- 3:42Speaker 1: to that practice. This where the Bible talks about the
- 3:45Speaker 1: love of money, not that it is evil, but that
- 3:49Speaker 1: it brings about a consciousness that can replace the knowledge
- 3:55Speaker 1: of the consciousness of God in a man. So we
- 3:59Speaker 1: see some telling so that he had committed he was stubborn,
- 4:03Speaker 1: and his stubborness led him to reject the world of
- 4:07Speaker 1: the Lord, not to be obedient to God. So you
- 4:11Speaker 1: see that thing that makes one not too easily when
- 4:14Speaker 1: God tells him, Like the Bible says that the speces
- 4:17Speaker 1: in the day of temptation had dimmed not your heart.
- 4:20Speaker 1: So the time when the spirit of God tells you
- 4:23Speaker 1: gives you an instruction a word. If there is a
- 4:26Speaker 1: resistance either is stubbornness. Then is a sign that there
- 4:30Speaker 1: is an idol in the heart. The Bible says in
- 4:34Speaker 1: First Corinthians, then they're setting they had no temptation taking you,
- 4:37Speaker 1: but such as is common to man.
- 4:40Speaker 2: But God is faithful. God is what faithful.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that
- 4:47Speaker 1: which you are able, above that you are able, but
- 4:51Speaker 1: will with the temptation also make a way to escape
- 4:57Speaker 1: that ye may be able to bear it. Wherefore, wherefore
- 5:02Speaker 1: my dearly beloved flee from idolatry. Because one thing that
- 5:08Speaker 1: makes people not to come out of that temptation, not
- 5:12Speaker 1: to be able to bear it, is when there is
- 5:15Speaker 1: a function, there is a presence of what I do
- 5:19Speaker 1: in the arts. Now, the second thing is convirtuousness. The
- 5:24Speaker 1: second thing that brings about or that expresses or that
- 5:28Speaker 1: shows idols in the arts. Convitousness. What is convetiousness. It
- 5:33Speaker 1: is the feeling of having a strong desire for things
- 5:38Speaker 1: that other people have because people have it, because of people, yes,
- 5:43Speaker 1: not being able to be contented. This can bring about
- 5:48Speaker 1: an idol. Collusions. You have a three bestfe collusions, chatter
- 5:51Speaker 1: three best life. Modify therefore your members which are upon
- 5:55Speaker 1: the et funication and cleanness, inordinate affection, evil, conspicuousness, and convitiousness,
- 6:05Speaker 1: which is idolattery convectiousness, which is what idolatry. First of all,
- 6:12Speaker 1: you must learn how not to compete with others. You
- 6:16Speaker 1: must learn to be contented with what you have. To
- 6:19Speaker 1: be contented with what you have. This means you must
- 6:22Speaker 1: find what will bring you a satisfaction that cannot be replaced.
- 6:29Speaker 1: And that's why the Bible says the joy of the
- 6:32Speaker 1: joy of the Spirit is necessary.
- 6:34Speaker 2: It's a necessity.
- 6:35Speaker 1: But the Kingdom of God is not meant or drink,
- 6:37Speaker 1: but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy goos. That
- 6:41Speaker 1: is the expression of satisfaction that will keep you from conviteousness,
- 6:48Speaker 1: the joy of the Spirit, because if you're not contented,
- 6:52Speaker 1: it opens the door to idols, to the establishment of
- 6:58Speaker 1: idols in the heart of a man.
- 7:00Speaker 2: That drives a man and removes.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Totally the consciousness of God from that individual, and that
- 7:08Speaker 1: individual begins to do things that are out of the
- 7:12Speaker 1: will of God, the ordinance of God for.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Him or her.
- 7:16Speaker 1: So, like I said, I doos are those things idos
- 7:20Speaker 1: in the art are those things that takes away the
- 7:24Speaker 1: consciousness of God from a man, To explain that a
- 7:29Speaker 1: man finds difficult being conscious of God in such time,
- 7:35Speaker 1: in such place, in such atmosphere, in such things, in
- 7:39Speaker 1: such practice, in such culture, in such habits. Yes, the
- 7:43Speaker 1: consciousness of God is what the spirit is, what gives
- 7:48Speaker 1: the spirit that enablement to bear witness with a man's spirit.
- 7:54Speaker 1: So if a man is not conscious, he will be
- 7:58Speaker 1: far from the will witness of the Holy One at
- 8:02Speaker 1: certain times, at certain points, at certain seasons.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Of that of that man's life.
- 8:08Speaker 1: But when the consciousness of God is heightened, obedience.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Is easier to the spirit.
- 8:16Speaker 1: So if we must deal with idols in the heart,
- 8:19Speaker 1: we must build the consciousness of God. Like Jue twenty six,
- 8:23Speaker 1: build up your mostly faith. Praying in the Holy Gooes
- 8:26Speaker 1: is talking about their a consciousness. So if we build
- 8:29Speaker 1: the consciousness of God, that would become a license for
- 8:32Speaker 1: us to get a witness from God. And that weakness
- 8:36Speaker 1: is from that weakness that we get an instruction on
- 8:39Speaker 1: the world of God, which will then quicken us into obedience.
- 8:44Speaker 1: And once we are able to obey, it will be
- 8:47Speaker 1: impossible for idols to have its remnants or any part
- 8:53Speaker 1: in the heart of a man. I remain the fake
- 8:56Speaker 1: campaign of Christ. Remember, be God fident, Be God fidend.
