1
00:00:12,170 --> 00:00:16,150
I am deeply grateful to God for this

2
00:00:16,150 --> 00:00:20,850
privilege of being here tonight, and I do

3
00:00:20,850 --> 00:00:26,110
thank our dear brother Don, and all he

4
00:00:26,110 --> 00:00:27,690
does and means for us and for so

5
00:00:27,690 --> 00:00:31,130
many, for the extension of God's kingdom and

6
00:00:31,130 --> 00:00:32,350
the glory of Jesus' name.

7
00:00:33,130 --> 00:00:34,570
It's a blessing to know him.

8
00:00:35,590 --> 00:00:36,230
Thank you.

9
00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:40,450
I'm honored tonight in a peculiar way in

10
00:00:40,450 --> 00:00:42,770
that most of the men who brought me

11
00:00:42,770 --> 00:00:45,610
to America are in this meeting, apart from

12
00:00:45,610 --> 00:00:48,410
one or two, and the first man was

13
00:00:48,410 --> 00:00:49,170
Harold Vaughan.

14
00:00:50,330 --> 00:00:51,710
Now, Harold Vaughan, I believe, spoke.

15
00:00:52,310 --> 00:00:53,450
He was the first one to bring me

16
00:00:53,450 --> 00:00:53,970
to America.

17
00:00:56,250 --> 00:00:59,470
And I had been in Canada extensively, but

18
00:00:59,470 --> 00:01:01,770
somehow Harold was the one who got me

19
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:04,349
here to your country many years ago now.

20
00:01:05,010 --> 00:01:06,670
And it was lovely to know he was

21
00:01:06,670 --> 00:01:07,690
going to be on the program.

22
00:01:08,590 --> 00:01:13,350
Then Denny Keniston, the charity mission work, he's

23
00:01:13,350 --> 00:01:13,910
also here.

24
00:01:14,050 --> 00:01:17,050
He gave me many, many pulpits and spread

25
00:01:17,050 --> 00:01:19,270
the messages I brought in such weakness.

26
00:01:20,310 --> 00:01:23,210
In love for God's kingdom, he spread the

27
00:01:23,210 --> 00:01:26,490
messages very widely, and I thank God for

28
00:01:26,490 --> 00:01:26,730
him.

29
00:01:27,610 --> 00:01:32,990
And then, after Denny, there was Rolf Satera.

30
00:01:33,690 --> 00:01:35,050
I believe he's here also.

31
00:01:35,610 --> 00:01:37,470
I shook his hand just now, and it

32
00:01:37,470 --> 00:01:39,550
was just lovely to see him.

33
00:01:40,850 --> 00:01:44,070
Him and Nancy Wells and how they organized

34
00:01:44,070 --> 00:01:47,730
her first HeartCry for Revival conference with Mr.

35
00:01:47,770 --> 00:01:51,810
Stephen Alford there, and they somehow trusted me

36
00:01:51,810 --> 00:01:52,810
to be the other speaker.

37
00:01:53,370 --> 00:01:56,330
And I was very, very humbled to stand

38
00:01:56,330 --> 00:01:58,790
with the great, godly Stephen Alford before he

39
00:01:58,790 --> 00:02:00,850
died in one of the last moments he

40
00:02:00,850 --> 00:02:02,530
ever spoke publicly anyway.

41
00:02:03,470 --> 00:02:05,270
But it was lovely to see Mr. Satera

42
00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:05,790
here also.

43
00:02:06,790 --> 00:02:11,370
And then there is Mr. Gofford, who's not

44
00:02:11,370 --> 00:02:13,710
here tonight, but we must make a plan

45
00:02:13,710 --> 00:02:14,230
next year.

46
00:02:14,610 --> 00:02:16,530
Or somewhere where you want to get all

47
00:02:16,530 --> 00:02:17,530
these men together, please.

48
00:02:17,950 --> 00:02:19,270
It would be lovely to have them all,

49
00:02:19,590 --> 00:02:21,010
everyone that brought me to your country.

50
00:02:21,010 --> 00:02:23,110
And then, of course, Brother Don, who for

51
00:02:23,110 --> 00:02:25,070
a number of years now has kept the

52
00:02:25,070 --> 00:02:27,190
doors open of America, and I don't do

53
00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:30,590
anything, just arrive and all is done of

54
00:02:30,590 --> 00:02:32,630
all the churches where there's invitations across this

55
00:02:32,630 --> 00:02:35,010
country to preach, for ten weeks of preaching

56
00:02:35,010 --> 00:02:36,450
annually like this.

57
00:02:36,910 --> 00:02:39,690
So thank you, and thank the dear Lord

58
00:02:39,690 --> 00:02:42,010
that these dear men and their godly wives

59
00:02:42,010 --> 00:02:42,770
can be here tonight.

60
00:02:44,170 --> 00:02:45,870
Finally, to thank Greg Gordon.

61
00:02:49,110 --> 00:02:51,070
Is he Gordon, Greg, or Greg Gordon?

62
00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:54,030
I was so scared there for a moment.

63
00:02:55,490 --> 00:03:00,030
Dear Greg Gordon is a young man and

64
00:03:00,030 --> 00:03:03,490
a man who has vision like very few

65
00:03:03,490 --> 00:03:04,430
in a whole lifetime.

66
00:03:05,590 --> 00:03:08,650
And he has somehow in a remarkable way

67
00:03:08,650 --> 00:03:11,430
got a website that has been honored by

68
00:03:11,430 --> 00:03:14,790
God in a very unusual way across the

69
00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:15,290
whole world.

70
00:03:16,390 --> 00:03:20,570
And the conservative-minded people of God's kingdom,

71
00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:25,230
those who want no compromise, no matter what

72
00:03:25,230 --> 00:03:27,870
the rest of the church does, are deeply

73
00:03:27,870 --> 00:03:30,170
grateful to God for the messages this dear

74
00:03:30,170 --> 00:03:33,270
man has somehow made available on one site

75
00:03:33,270 --> 00:03:35,670
in such a very godly way.

76
00:03:37,570 --> 00:03:40,890
And I have been so blessed that the

77
00:03:40,890 --> 00:03:42,430
dear man, for some reason, though I never

78
00:03:42,430 --> 00:03:44,610
met him in my life, did put my

79
00:03:44,610 --> 00:03:48,390
messages on alongside of some of the names

80
00:03:48,390 --> 00:03:50,790
that I dare not even think my messages

81
00:03:50,790 --> 00:03:52,150
could be on the same website.

82
00:03:53,430 --> 00:03:55,850
But when I've looked at how many people

83
00:03:55,850 --> 00:03:58,510
across the world are downloading the messages, I've

84
00:03:58,510 --> 00:04:00,510
realized God is with this man and his

85
00:04:00,510 --> 00:04:01,890
vision in a very remarkable way.

86
00:04:03,630 --> 00:04:06,310
So this is his first convention that he

87
00:04:06,310 --> 00:04:07,310
just stepped out in faith.

88
00:04:07,430 --> 00:04:08,910
As a 26-year-old man, you just

89
00:04:08,910 --> 00:04:10,150
don't hold conventions like this.

90
00:04:10,850 --> 00:04:11,570
But he did.

91
00:04:11,570 --> 00:04:13,190
And we bless God for him.

92
00:04:14,270 --> 00:04:16,110
We thank God for the vision he has.

93
00:04:17,410 --> 00:04:19,870
And we hope that as he stays low

94
00:04:19,870 --> 00:04:22,750
at the feet of Jesus, the Lord will

95
00:04:22,750 --> 00:04:24,570
really use him mightily and more and more

96
00:04:24,570 --> 00:04:29,970
mightily as God needs him, enables him, and

97
00:04:29,970 --> 00:04:31,510
unsanitizes his ministry.

98
00:04:32,430 --> 00:04:35,390
So thank you very, very much, dear brother.

99
00:04:36,350 --> 00:04:37,930
Though I've never met you, your heart bear

100
00:04:37,930 --> 00:04:38,770
hope someway.

101
00:04:40,700 --> 00:04:42,760
Much prayer goes up for you, young man.

102
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:47,320
And we long to see great things in

103
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,600
this world for Jesus' kingdom through you, beyond

104
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,380
this meeting, these meetings.

105
00:04:57,420 --> 00:04:59,320
Can we bow for a moment of prayer,

106
00:04:59,460 --> 00:04:59,740
please?

107
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:02,420
And I do hope this loudspeaker's been put

108
00:05:02,420 --> 00:05:05,300
up a bit, because last night I sat

109
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:06,740
there and I didn't hear everything.

110
00:05:07,260 --> 00:05:09,140
So I'm sure there are others that needed

111
00:05:09,140 --> 00:05:10,800
it to be much louder than last night.

112
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,740
Forgive me for telling you what to do,

113
00:05:13,860 --> 00:05:16,980
but I have one fear that I have

114
00:05:16,980 --> 00:05:17,420
in life.

115
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:18,740
I only have one fear.

116
00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:21,920
That someone could walk out of a meeting

117
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,700
I preached at the same that they came

118
00:05:24,700 --> 00:05:24,900
in.

119
00:05:26,420 --> 00:05:29,040
And because of that fear, I'm daring to

120
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,040
hope you're not going to be offended by

121
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,300
asking you to please put this loud enough

122
00:05:33,300 --> 00:05:35,680
not to offend, but so loud that no

123
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:36,480
one could fall asleep.

124
00:05:38,630 --> 00:05:44,560
Can we bow before our God, the Creator,

125
00:05:45,940 --> 00:05:50,940
the Savior, and the coming Judge?

126
00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:57,430
Can we all humbly bow before Jesus Christ,

127
00:05:58,310 --> 00:06:01,290
our High Priest, that ever liveth to make

128
00:06:01,290 --> 00:06:02,210
indecision for us?

129
00:06:05,340 --> 00:06:10,200
Our Father, we thank Thee above everything for

130
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:10,620
Jesus.

131
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:18,620
Our Savior, we bless Thee that the Holy

132
00:06:18,620 --> 00:06:20,700
Spirit shall not speak of Himself.

133
00:06:23,450 --> 00:06:26,990
His whole work is to glorify Christ, to

134
00:06:26,990 --> 00:06:29,130
conform us into the image of Jesus Christ,

135
00:06:31,030 --> 00:06:32,910
to draw us to Christ and to exalt

136
00:06:32,910 --> 00:06:34,050
Christ's name through us.

137
00:06:40,590 --> 00:06:42,310
We bless Thee for our Savior, for His

138
00:06:42,310 --> 00:06:46,010
blood, for His risen resurrected power, and that

139
00:06:46,010 --> 00:06:47,190
He lives in us.

140
00:06:47,390 --> 00:06:49,950
Christ in you, the hope of glory.

141
00:06:50,550 --> 00:06:53,910
We bless Thee, dear God, for this book

142
00:06:53,910 --> 00:06:58,310
that Thou hast in mercy given to man.

143
00:06:59,770 --> 00:07:03,550
We ask Thee, for without Thee we can

144
00:07:03,550 --> 00:07:03,970
do nothing.

145
00:07:04,530 --> 00:07:05,090
We are nothing.

146
00:07:06,690 --> 00:07:08,830
That's why Thou dost carefully choose the base

147
00:07:08,830 --> 00:07:11,010
things of the world, the weak things of

148
00:07:11,010 --> 00:07:13,430
the world, the despised things, those things that

149
00:07:13,430 --> 00:07:15,750
are despised, that no flesh can glory in

150
00:07:15,750 --> 00:07:16,230
Thy presence.

151
00:07:17,050 --> 00:07:19,190
Thou wilt never present Thyself where a man

152
00:07:19,190 --> 00:07:21,290
touches the glory or wants it.

153
00:07:23,170 --> 00:07:26,590
Now we are okay, deeply conscious, without Thee

154
00:07:26,590 --> 00:07:27,530
we can do nothing.

155
00:07:28,350 --> 00:07:28,710
Nothing.

156
00:07:29,090 --> 00:07:29,370
Nothing.

157
00:07:30,730 --> 00:07:31,290
Nothing.

158
00:07:33,330 --> 00:07:34,930
And so all of us look up to

159
00:07:34,930 --> 00:07:38,310
Thee, our expectations in Thee and Thee only.

160
00:07:42,810 --> 00:07:46,510
The letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life.

161
00:07:46,930 --> 00:07:48,210
Come, give life to Thy Word.

162
00:07:49,030 --> 00:07:51,610
Thou hast promised Thou dost honor Thy Word

163
00:07:51,610 --> 00:07:53,270
above all things.

164
00:07:55,190 --> 00:07:57,290
Thou dost honor Thy Word above all things,

165
00:07:57,410 --> 00:08:00,510
and because of that promise we all come

166
00:08:00,510 --> 00:08:02,250
to Thee tonight and ask Thee, honor it,

167
00:08:02,890 --> 00:08:05,970
honor it, that which Thou dost seek for

168
00:08:05,970 --> 00:08:09,110
men to honor above all things, honor it

169
00:08:09,110 --> 00:08:12,170
tonight, though it comes through the weakest, basest,

170
00:08:12,770 --> 00:08:15,590
and at its best most unprofitable servant.

171
00:08:16,050 --> 00:08:17,350
Thou dost not need to remind me of

172
00:08:17,350 --> 00:08:17,830
that, Father.

173
00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:19,170
Please don't have to.

174
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,340
Come, wash me in the blood of God,

175
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,840
the Son, the blood of Jesus Christ that

176
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,220
cleanseth us from all sin.

177
00:08:30,340 --> 00:08:33,280
Without the blood I have nothing to show

178
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,000
Thee as to why Thou couldst possibly use

179
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,380
me, for there is nothing good in me.

180
00:08:41,070 --> 00:08:43,550
Please, God, wash me in the blood that

181
00:08:43,550 --> 00:08:44,750
I might be a vessel of meat for

182
00:08:44,750 --> 00:08:45,530
the Master's use.

183
00:08:46,490 --> 00:08:49,410
Fill me with the Holy Spirit, anoint and

184
00:08:49,410 --> 00:08:51,330
unsanitize me, and take Thy Word and give

185
00:08:51,330 --> 00:08:54,250
it life, and life indeed.

186
00:08:56,170 --> 00:08:58,170
Come to the hardest heart and break it.

187
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,880
Come to the proudest heart and break it.

188
00:09:06,140 --> 00:09:09,800
Come to the most closed heart and open

189
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:10,140
it.

190
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:16,620
Shock each one that thinks they can resist

191
00:09:16,620 --> 00:09:17,020
God.

192
00:09:19,410 --> 00:09:20,250
Come visit us.

193
00:09:21,690 --> 00:09:25,570
Rebuke the devil, Satan, our only enemy, away

194
00:09:25,570 --> 00:09:29,690
by the risen, resurrected power of Christ from

195
00:09:29,690 --> 00:09:30,230
this place.

196
00:09:30,610 --> 00:09:32,510
Surround us with the angels of God and

197
00:09:32,510 --> 00:09:34,670
let them do battle with swords drawn to

198
00:09:34,670 --> 00:09:39,320
do battle with the powers of darkness that

199
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,000
would hurt us.

200
00:09:41,900 --> 00:09:44,080
Rude upon us with the Holy Ghost.

201
00:09:47,230 --> 00:09:49,830
Come rend the heavens and come down, God,

202
00:09:50,170 --> 00:09:51,550
in mercy.

203
00:09:53,150 --> 00:09:56,950
Stand beside me and let me be Thy

204
00:09:56,950 --> 00:09:59,370
mouthpiece through which Thy voice can be heard.

205
00:10:00,470 --> 00:10:04,570
And speak, Lord, to every single soul in

206
00:10:04,570 --> 00:10:05,630
a way they'll never recover.

207
00:10:06,170 --> 00:10:07,250
Now, no man can do that.

208
00:10:07,390 --> 00:10:08,130
No man dares.

209
00:10:08,390 --> 00:10:10,890
He so presumes us as to believe that

210
00:10:10,890 --> 00:10:12,430
God would do it for him apart from

211
00:10:12,430 --> 00:10:13,230
that Thou hast promised.

212
00:10:13,370 --> 00:10:15,970
If two or three of you agree, touching

213
00:10:15,970 --> 00:10:17,670
anything that's the will of the Father in

214
00:10:17,670 --> 00:10:18,730
my name, it shall be done.

215
00:10:18,730 --> 00:10:21,630
In the name of Jesus Christ.

216
00:10:22,150 --> 00:10:25,690
In the name of Jesus the Christ.

217
00:10:25,930 --> 00:10:28,610
We all unitedly agree and ask these things

218
00:10:28,610 --> 00:10:30,390
of our Father in heaven.

219
00:10:30,670 --> 00:10:30,970
Amen.

220
00:10:42,270 --> 00:10:47,950
Tonight, I would like to speak on the

221
00:10:47,950 --> 00:10:51,150
single greatest tragedy this world faces today.

222
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:59,960
The single greatest tragedy this world faces today.

223
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:04,640
Compromising Christianity.

224
00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:10,680
Compromising Christianity.

225
00:11:12,860 --> 00:11:17,400
And all that every Christian in this building

226
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:22,340
would cry from their inner being right now

227
00:11:22,340 --> 00:11:26,620
at the outset of the sermon, Search me.

228
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,600
Search me, O God.

229
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,360
And know my heart.

230
00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:38,890
Try me.

231
00:11:39,610 --> 00:11:40,570
Try me.

232
00:11:41,330 --> 00:11:42,850
And know my thoughts.

233
00:11:45,180 --> 00:11:48,500
And see if there be any wicked way

234
00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:49,340
in me.

235
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:52,700
And lead me.

236
00:11:53,540 --> 00:11:56,500
Lead me in the way everlasting.

237
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,020
Lead me in the way everlasting.

238
00:12:01,540 --> 00:12:04,140
Psalm 139, verse 23 and 24.

239
00:12:04,140 --> 00:12:09,620
Search me, O God.

240
00:12:10,580 --> 00:12:14,140
And know my heart.

241
00:12:17,630 --> 00:12:21,210
For if our heart, if our heart condemn

242
00:12:21,210 --> 00:12:21,750
us.

243
00:12:22,570 --> 00:12:25,190
If our heart condemn us.

244
00:12:25,950 --> 00:12:28,430
God is greater than our heart.

245
00:12:29,030 --> 00:12:31,250
And knoweth all things.

246
00:12:32,130 --> 00:12:33,190
1 John 3 verse 20.

247
00:12:34,130 --> 00:12:41,350
O Christian, if your heart condemns your life.

248
00:12:41,950 --> 00:12:46,210
If your heart condemns your life.

249
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:49,880
Then I implore you.

250
00:12:50,820 --> 00:12:53,120
I implore you tonight.

251
00:12:53,740 --> 00:12:57,280
Tonight to sow to yourselves in righteousness.

252
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,540
Sow to yourselves in righteousness.

253
00:13:00,900 --> 00:13:02,440
Reap in mercy.

254
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,260
Reap in mercy.

255
00:13:04,660 --> 00:13:05,420
Break up.

256
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,800
Break up your fallow ground.

257
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,100
For it is time to seek the Lord.

258
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:13,820
Till he come.

259
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:19,400
Till he come and lay righteousness upon you.

260
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,320
Whom he attendeth well.

261
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,560
Sow to yourselves in righteousness.

262
00:13:31,970 --> 00:13:32,830
Tonight.

263
00:13:34,330 --> 00:13:35,490
Reap in mercy.

264
00:13:35,490 --> 00:13:38,030
Do what God requires of you.

265
00:13:39,790 --> 00:13:41,770
Break up your fallow ground.

266
00:13:43,850 --> 00:13:45,230
Break up your fallow ground.

267
00:13:45,430 --> 00:13:46,630
That hardened crust.

268
00:13:46,970 --> 00:13:48,190
That hardened crust.

269
00:13:48,590 --> 00:13:50,730
That summer has formed over the fertile soil

270
00:13:50,730 --> 00:13:51,410
of your heart.

271
00:13:53,490 --> 00:13:55,350
Tragically enabling you.

272
00:13:56,030 --> 00:13:56,850
To tolerate.

273
00:13:57,630 --> 00:13:58,670
And to accept.

274
00:13:59,730 --> 00:14:01,850
The life of shameful compromise.

275
00:14:03,910 --> 00:14:06,110
Break up your fallow ground.

276
00:14:06,110 --> 00:14:10,180
But how, you may ask.

277
00:14:11,740 --> 00:14:14,180
For I believe the fallow ground.

278
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,120
That fallow ground.

279
00:14:15,420 --> 00:14:18,220
That hardened crust will break up in moments

280
00:14:18,220 --> 00:14:18,820
here tonight.

281
00:14:19,340 --> 00:14:20,820
But only if you.

282
00:14:22,220 --> 00:14:24,420
Only if you carefully.

283
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,380
Carefully and prayerfully.

284
00:14:27,980 --> 00:14:29,360
Expose your heart.

285
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:31,980
Expose your heart tonight.

286
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:33,800
To the unadulterated.

287
00:14:35,100 --> 00:14:37,640
Uncompromising standard of this holy book once again.

288
00:14:39,380 --> 00:14:41,360
For it is not my word.

289
00:14:41,620 --> 00:14:43,660
Like as a fire, saith the Lord.

290
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:44,980
And like a hammer.

291
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,320
That breaketh the rock in pieces.

292
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:49,460
Jeremiah 23 verse 29.

293
00:14:49,940 --> 00:14:52,060
For the word of God is quick and

294
00:14:52,060 --> 00:14:52,640
powerful.

295
00:14:53,500 --> 00:14:55,860
And sharper than any two-edged sword.

296
00:14:56,140 --> 00:14:56,660
Piercing.

297
00:14:56,980 --> 00:14:58,820
Even to the dividing asunder of soul and

298
00:14:58,820 --> 00:14:59,120
spirit.

299
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:00,360
And of the joints and marrow.

300
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:01,500
And as a discerner.

301
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:04,060
It is a discern of the thoughts and

302
00:15:04,060 --> 00:15:05,340
intents of the heart.

303
00:15:08,530 --> 00:15:10,330
Hebrews 4 verse 12.

304
00:15:11,710 --> 00:15:12,430
Come Christian.

305
00:15:13,550 --> 00:15:14,550
Come Christian.

306
00:15:16,570 --> 00:15:19,070
Expose your heart.

307
00:15:19,930 --> 00:15:20,670
Carefully.

308
00:15:21,690 --> 00:15:24,310
Carefully and prayerfully here tonight.

309
00:15:25,770 --> 00:15:28,770
To what this holy book declares.

310
00:15:30,670 --> 00:15:33,590
To what this holy book declares when a

311
00:15:33,590 --> 00:15:33,970
Christian.

312
00:15:35,010 --> 00:15:38,370
When a Christian lives in a continual state

313
00:15:38,370 --> 00:15:40,610
of shameful compromise.

314
00:15:41,330 --> 00:15:43,990
To what this holy book declares.

315
00:15:44,750 --> 00:15:45,710
When a Christian.

316
00:15:47,090 --> 00:15:51,950
Lives in a continual state of shameful compromise.

317
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,200
To what this holy book declares.

318
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,780
When a Christian.

319
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,520
Continually fails God.

320
00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:12,540
Continually fails God.

321
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:13,100
Firstly.

322
00:16:14,220 --> 00:16:14,640
Firstly.

323
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,740
With his eyes.

324
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,060
When a Christian continually fails God.

325
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:24,660
With his eyes.

326
00:16:25,660 --> 00:16:26,180
When.

327
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:27,680
Does a Christian.

328
00:16:28,060 --> 00:16:28,660
Fail God.

329
00:16:28,900 --> 00:16:29,540
With his eyes.

330
00:16:29,660 --> 00:16:30,420
According to this book.

331
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,680
In 2 Samuel 11 verse 1.

332
00:16:36,380 --> 00:16:36,840
We read.

333
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:38,540
That Israel.

334
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,560
Israel went to war.

335
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,380
Israel went to war.

336
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:47,120
But.

337
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:49,000
David.

338
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,480
Carried still at Jerusalem.

339
00:16:53,860 --> 00:16:56,380
And it came to pass in the even

340
00:16:56,380 --> 00:16:59,120
tide that David arose from off his bed.

341
00:17:00,260 --> 00:17:02,860
And walked upon the roof of the king's

342
00:17:02,860 --> 00:17:03,200
house.

343
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,359
And from the roof.

344
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:08,960
He saw.

345
00:17:10,260 --> 00:17:10,780
A woman.

346
00:17:12,460 --> 00:17:13,160
A woman.

347
00:17:15,260 --> 00:17:16,180
Washing herself.

348
00:17:18,579 --> 00:17:19,599
And the woman.

349
00:17:20,660 --> 00:17:22,280
Was very beautiful.

350
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:23,859
To look upon.

351
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,180
And David.

352
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:28,600
Sent.

353
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,000
And inquired after the woman.

354
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:34,660
Now beloved.

355
00:17:35,140 --> 00:17:36,200
You may believe.

356
00:17:36,460 --> 00:17:37,460
That David later.

357
00:17:38,580 --> 00:17:39,180
Tragically.

358
00:17:40,180 --> 00:17:42,360
Went on to commit adultery with her.

359
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:44,840
You may believe that David later.

360
00:17:45,220 --> 00:17:46,400
Tragically went on.

361
00:17:46,700 --> 00:17:47,780
To commit adultery with her.

362
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,960
But Jesus said in Matthew 5 verse 28.

363
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,060
That whosoever looketh.

364
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:53,700
On a woman.

365
00:17:54,060 --> 00:17:55,220
To lust after her.

366
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,660
Hath committed adultery with her.

367
00:17:59,280 --> 00:17:59,900
Already.

368
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,080
In his heart.

369
00:18:03,820 --> 00:18:05,000
That first look.

370
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,040
That first look was not David's fault.

371
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:10,180
But the second was.

372
00:18:13,460 --> 00:18:14,960
The second was.

373
00:18:15,260 --> 00:18:16,120
In this world.

374
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:17,280
In this world.

375
00:18:17,380 --> 00:18:19,520
The devil will place many things before us.

376
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,560
That we did not choose.

377
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,480
Or want to behold.

378
00:18:22,660 --> 00:18:22,900
But.

379
00:18:23,260 --> 00:18:24,260
It is our choice.

380
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:25,700
If we look again.

381
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,320
It is our choice.

382
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,240
If we keep on looking.

383
00:18:32,230 --> 00:18:34,550
And Galatians 5 verse 9 warns.

384
00:18:34,630 --> 00:18:36,210
That a little leaven.

385
00:18:37,290 --> 00:18:38,670
Leaveneth the whole lump.

386
00:18:38,850 --> 00:18:40,270
That's all the devil needs David.

387
00:18:41,330 --> 00:18:43,150
It's all the devil wants David.

388
00:18:46,030 --> 00:18:47,650
Just a little leaven.

389
00:18:49,770 --> 00:18:51,310
Leaveneth the whole lump.

390
00:18:53,650 --> 00:19:00,130
In James chapter 1 verse 14.

391
00:19:00,270 --> 00:19:02,070
We read that every man is tempted.

392
00:19:03,150 --> 00:19:04,930
Every man is tempted.

393
00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:07,710
When he is drawn away.

394
00:19:07,710 --> 00:19:09,610
When he is drawn away of his own

395
00:19:09,610 --> 00:19:10,170
lust.

396
00:19:10,570 --> 00:19:11,270
And enticed.

397
00:19:12,010 --> 00:19:12,550
Enticed.

398
00:19:13,310 --> 00:19:15,630
Then when lust hath conceived.

399
00:19:15,630 --> 00:19:18,870
When lust hath conceived it bringeth forth sin.

400
00:19:23,140 --> 00:19:24,840
Temptation is not sin.

401
00:19:27,060 --> 00:19:29,120
But the second look is brother.

402
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,760
The second look is sister.

403
00:19:37,510 --> 00:19:41,090
Thou shalt not commit adultery.

404
00:19:41,790 --> 00:19:43,750
Exodus 20 verse 14.

405
00:19:45,130 --> 00:19:47,810
Thou shalt not commit adultery.

406
00:19:47,810 --> 00:19:50,870
But this verse in God's 10 commandments.

407
00:19:51,330 --> 00:19:54,030
Is strangely linked with verse 17.

408
00:19:55,970 --> 00:20:00,990
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house.

409
00:20:01,670 --> 00:20:03,590
But wait it doesn't end there.

410
00:20:04,350 --> 00:20:07,210
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.

411
00:20:07,510 --> 00:20:08,290
Also David.

412
00:20:09,350 --> 00:20:12,050
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife.

413
00:20:12,170 --> 00:20:12,810
Also David.

414
00:20:16,710 --> 00:20:20,290
This holy book condemns men.

415
00:20:21,330 --> 00:20:24,770
Having eyes full of adultery.

416
00:20:25,790 --> 00:20:28,030
And that cannot cease from sin.

417
00:20:29,910 --> 00:20:32,470
This holy book condemns men.

418
00:20:32,630 --> 00:20:34,890
Having eyes full of adultery.

419
00:20:35,510 --> 00:20:36,930
Full of adultery.

420
00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:40,270
And that cannot cease from sin.

421
00:20:40,470 --> 00:20:41,430
2 Peter 2 verse 14.

422
00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:43,410
But oh when a Christian.

423
00:20:43,730 --> 00:20:44,810
When a Christian.

424
00:20:45,170 --> 00:20:46,050
When a Christian.

425
00:20:46,890 --> 00:20:49,650
Continually fails God with his eyes.

426
00:20:50,490 --> 00:20:52,190
That is tragic.

427
00:20:53,550 --> 00:20:54,590
That is tragic.

428
00:20:57,050 --> 00:21:02,670
I made a covenant with mine eyes.

429
00:21:03,590 --> 00:21:06,670
I made a covenant with mine eyes.

430
00:21:07,890 --> 00:21:11,290
Why then should I think upon a maid?

431
00:21:12,510 --> 00:21:14,530
Why then should I look upon a young

432
00:21:14,530 --> 00:21:14,810
woman?

433
00:21:15,290 --> 00:21:16,290
Job 31 verse 1.

434
00:21:17,230 --> 00:21:18,890
I as a married man.

435
00:21:19,230 --> 00:21:21,310
Came to a place where I made a

436
00:21:21,310 --> 00:21:22,590
covenant with mine eyes.

437
00:21:22,870 --> 00:21:24,890
Not to look the second look.

438
00:21:25,370 --> 00:21:27,250
At what I know the devil will continually

439
00:21:27,250 --> 00:21:28,670
place before me in his life.

440
00:21:31,570 --> 00:21:32,830
Like young Daniel.

441
00:21:33,750 --> 00:21:35,710
Who purposed in his heart.

442
00:21:35,710 --> 00:21:37,790
That he would not defile himself.

443
00:21:38,070 --> 00:21:39,150
With the king's meat.

444
00:21:40,090 --> 00:21:42,930
He came to a calculated moment.

445
00:21:43,310 --> 00:21:45,050
A calculated choice.

446
00:21:45,350 --> 00:21:45,770
A covenant.

447
00:21:48,190 --> 00:21:50,830
That he would not defile himself in God's

448
00:21:50,830 --> 00:21:51,090
eyes.

449
00:21:51,270 --> 00:21:52,990
By going against the known will of God.

450
00:21:53,070 --> 00:21:54,050
The commandments of God.

451
00:21:54,270 --> 00:21:55,810
And become defiled in the sight of God.

452
00:21:56,230 --> 00:21:57,330
He purposed.

453
00:21:58,290 --> 00:21:59,130
In his heart.

454
00:22:00,590 --> 00:22:02,590
That he would not defile himself.

455
00:22:03,670 --> 00:22:04,750
So I.

456
00:22:06,290 --> 00:22:08,330
I purposed in my heart.

457
00:22:09,070 --> 00:22:10,950
I came to a decisive moment.

458
00:22:11,330 --> 00:22:12,830
A moment in life where I made a

459
00:22:12,830 --> 00:22:13,790
calculated decision.

460
00:22:18,190 --> 00:22:21,230
I made a covenant with mine eyes.

461
00:22:24,250 --> 00:22:25,990
Not to become defiled.

462
00:22:27,050 --> 00:22:27,850
In God's sight.

463
00:22:27,990 --> 00:22:29,570
By what I allow my eyes to look

464
00:22:29,570 --> 00:22:29,710
at.

465
00:22:31,830 --> 00:22:33,370
There was a moment.

466
00:22:33,650 --> 00:22:35,830
A calculated covenant moment.

467
00:22:36,250 --> 00:22:36,870
With his eyes.

468
00:22:45,090 --> 00:22:45,870
In Romans.

469
00:22:46,330 --> 00:22:47,450
6 verse 11.

470
00:22:48,150 --> 00:22:50,750
Paul writes to all Christians.

471
00:22:51,550 --> 00:22:51,890
Likewise.

472
00:22:53,970 --> 00:22:54,770
Likewise.

473
00:22:55,050 --> 00:22:55,850
Reckon ye.

474
00:22:56,590 --> 00:22:59,030
Reckon ye also yourselves.

475
00:22:59,250 --> 00:22:59,970
To be dead.

476
00:23:00,450 --> 00:23:01,490
Indeed I said.

477
00:23:02,610 --> 00:23:05,090
Reckon ye also yourselves to be dead.

478
00:23:05,090 --> 00:23:06,370
Indeed unto sin.

479
00:23:06,470 --> 00:23:08,330
But alive unto God through Jesus Christ our

480
00:23:08,330 --> 00:23:08,570
Lord.

481
00:23:09,030 --> 00:23:11,290
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal

482
00:23:11,290 --> 00:23:11,670
body.

483
00:23:12,310 --> 00:23:13,630
That ye should obey it.

484
00:23:13,910 --> 00:23:14,890
In lust thereof.

485
00:23:15,390 --> 00:23:17,790
Neither yield ye your members as instruments of

486
00:23:17,790 --> 00:23:19,210
unrighteousness unto sin.

487
00:23:19,590 --> 00:23:21,450
But yield yourselves unto God.

488
00:23:21,590 --> 00:23:23,430
As those that are alive from the dead.

489
00:23:23,470 --> 00:23:24,230
And your members.

490
00:23:24,710 --> 00:23:26,850
As instruments of righteousness unto God.

491
00:23:28,010 --> 00:23:28,970
Leave in your eyes brother.

492
00:23:30,850 --> 00:23:32,710
There's a moment you've got to yield these

493
00:23:32,710 --> 00:23:33,330
in a covenant.

494
00:23:35,330 --> 00:23:36,930
The purpose in your heart.

495
00:23:37,090 --> 00:23:38,250
To let God deal with this.

496
00:23:43,090 --> 00:23:44,370
Leave in your eyes sister.

497
00:23:46,270 --> 00:23:46,690
Yield.

498
00:23:49,470 --> 00:23:51,250
In one sacred moment.

499
00:23:51,690 --> 00:23:52,810
And desperate moment.

500
00:23:52,910 --> 00:23:53,490
But by faith.

501
00:23:54,930 --> 00:23:55,910
For God to deal with it.

502
00:24:03,930 --> 00:24:04,570
An old.

503
00:24:06,190 --> 00:24:07,130
Godly woman.

504
00:24:07,810 --> 00:24:09,130
Recently stood with me.

505
00:24:10,450 --> 00:24:11,930
When her godly.

506
00:24:11,930 --> 00:24:13,510
Godly husband died.

507
00:24:13,730 --> 00:24:15,430
That I'd known for many years.

508
00:24:16,770 --> 00:24:18,490
And she shared with me how.

509
00:24:18,930 --> 00:24:20,290
When they were first married.

510
00:24:20,590 --> 00:24:22,130
As a young married couple.

511
00:24:22,850 --> 00:24:24,210
They were unsaved.

512
00:24:24,370 --> 00:24:24,870
Unconverted.

513
00:24:25,990 --> 00:24:27,870
But she said in that moment.

514
00:24:28,270 --> 00:24:29,330
After her marriage.

515
00:24:29,950 --> 00:24:31,030
She began to fear.

516
00:24:32,130 --> 00:24:33,230
She began to fear.

517
00:24:33,750 --> 00:24:35,050
Because of his eyes.

518
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,460
The way his eyes.

519
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:40,300
Looked with lust.

520
00:24:40,300 --> 00:24:41,920
That woman.

521
00:24:42,180 --> 00:24:42,760
In front of her.

522
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,380
You forget the people you loved.

523
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:47,140
When you're sinning.

524
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:50,920
When you haven't dealt with sin.

525
00:24:54,100 --> 00:24:54,960
She said.

526
00:24:57,420 --> 00:24:58,540
She felt.

527
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:01,720
Defiled.

528
00:25:02,620 --> 00:25:03,360
By his eyes.

529
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,240
She felt betrayed.

530
00:25:06,360 --> 00:25:07,300
By his eyes.

531
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:09,700
His eyes.

532
00:25:10,300 --> 00:25:10,680
His eyes betrayed her.

533
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,500
She was fearful because of his eyes.

534
00:25:17,300 --> 00:25:18,820
That could not see.

535
00:25:19,700 --> 00:25:20,600
And sin.

536
00:25:21,860 --> 00:25:22,980
In front of her.

537
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,300
But then she said.

538
00:25:25,660 --> 00:25:26,560
Christ stepped in.

539
00:25:27,540 --> 00:25:28,720
And saved our souls.

540
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,920
And he was gloriously saved.

541
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:31,620
As a young man.

542
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:32,940
While we were still young and married.

543
00:25:32,940 --> 00:25:33,200
With his eyes.

544
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:35,940
And from that time.

545
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:36,540
Brother Keith.

546
00:25:39,100 --> 00:25:40,180
Through the years.

547
00:25:40,300 --> 00:25:41,420
Till he died in his old age.

548
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:43,420
I never saw him betray me.

549
00:25:43,540 --> 00:25:44,780
With his eyes once again.

550
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,520
That's Christ's salvation Keith.

551
00:25:50,780 --> 00:25:52,520
Jesus didn't come to save.

552
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,400
His people in their sins.

553
00:25:54,660 --> 00:25:55,820
But from their sins.

554
00:25:56,820 --> 00:25:57,440
If you'll have it.

555
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:58,980
If you'll have it brother.

556
00:25:59,740 --> 00:26:01,180
If you'll have it sister.

557
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:05,680
Oh Christian.

558
00:26:06,740 --> 00:26:07,840
Oh Christian.

559
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,380
If you continually.

560
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,440
Fail God.

561
00:26:11,940 --> 00:26:12,760
With your eyes.

562
00:26:13,740 --> 00:26:15,300
Then I implore you.

563
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,940
I implore you tonight.

564
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:18,820
To sow to yourselves.

565
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:19,700
In righteousness.

566
00:26:22,540 --> 00:26:23,720
Reap in mercy.

567
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,260
Break up your fallow ground.

568
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:27,160
For it is time.

569
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:28,460
To seek the Lord.

570
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,560
It is time to seek the Lord.

571
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:31,680
Till he come.

572
00:26:32,380 --> 00:26:34,220
And reign righteousness upon you.

573
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:35,460
Till he come.

574
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,040
Not to some sort of prayer.

575
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:38,900
At the end of the sermon.

576
00:26:41,540 --> 00:26:42,660
But till he come.

577
00:26:42,980 --> 00:26:44,400
I will not let thee go.

578
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,540
Except thou bless me.

579
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,180
Except you have your way.

580
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,440
And you will with my life.

581
00:26:50,580 --> 00:26:51,740
That destroys everything.

582
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:52,920
Though I'm saved.

583
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:56,780
I will not let thee go.

584
00:26:56,980 --> 00:26:58,140
Except thou bless me.

585
00:26:58,480 --> 00:26:59,200
Have my way.

586
00:27:01,100 --> 00:27:02,620
No matter what it cost God.

587
00:27:03,820 --> 00:27:05,080
Oh you shall seek me.

588
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:06,460
You shall find me.

589
00:27:06,940 --> 00:27:08,320
When you shall search for me.

590
00:27:08,380 --> 00:27:10,360
With all your heart God says.

591
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:11,740
That cost you everything.

592
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:14,580
But unless you're winning for that price.

593
00:27:14,940 --> 00:27:16,840
It will cost you far more than everything.

594
00:27:17,060 --> 00:27:17,960
It will cost you everything.

595
00:27:18,100 --> 00:27:18,900
Yes dear.

596
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:23,820
Oh it's time to seek the Lord.

597
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,780
Till he come.

598
00:27:27,660 --> 00:27:27,860
Till he come.

599
00:27:27,860 --> 00:27:30,080
And reign righteousness upon you.

600
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:33,140
When a Christian.

601
00:27:33,740 --> 00:27:35,160
When a Christian.

602
00:27:36,580 --> 00:27:38,680
Continually fails God.

603
00:27:38,980 --> 00:27:39,360
Firstly.

604
00:27:41,630 --> 00:27:43,160
Firstly with his eyes.

605
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,280
But secondly.

606
00:27:47,260 --> 00:27:48,280
Secondly.

607
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,180
When a Christian.

608
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,020
Continually fails God.

609
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,860
Of corrupt.

610
00:28:11,620 --> 00:28:12,380
Minds.

611
00:28:13,820 --> 00:28:15,360
Men of corrupt.

612
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:16,840
Minds.

613
00:28:17,020 --> 00:28:20,620
And even as they.

614
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,220
Did not like to retain.

615
00:28:22,380 --> 00:28:23,460
God in their knowledge.

616
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:24,540
Even as they.

617
00:28:24,540 --> 00:28:25,940
Did not like to retain.

618
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:26,980
God in their knowledge.

619
00:28:27,180 --> 00:28:28,760
God gave them over.

620
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,000
To a reprobate mind.

621
00:28:31,860 --> 00:28:32,400
To do.

622
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,340
Those things which are not to be.

623
00:28:35,860 --> 00:28:37,280
Romans 1 verse 28.

624
00:28:38,140 --> 00:28:38,540
Fulfilling.

625
00:28:39,100 --> 00:28:41,560
The desires of the flesh and mind.

626
00:28:43,500 --> 00:28:45,060
Fulfilling the desires.

627
00:28:45,740 --> 00:28:47,100
Of the flesh and mind.

628
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,240
Ephesians 2 verse 3.

629
00:28:50,220 --> 00:28:51,960
For as he thinketh.

630
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,080
As he thinketh in his heart.

631
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,160
So is he.

632
00:28:57,500 --> 00:28:59,740
As he thinketh in his heart.

633
00:28:59,980 --> 00:29:01,700
So is he.

634
00:29:02,340 --> 00:29:03,540
Proverbs 23 verse 7.

635
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:06,720
For out of the heart.

636
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,780
Out of the heart proceeds.

637
00:29:10,020 --> 00:29:11,520
Evil thoughts.

638
00:29:13,060 --> 00:29:14,200
Matthew 15 verse 19.

639
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:16,840
And heart.

640
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,880
That devises.

641
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,320
Wicked imaginations.

642
00:29:24,140 --> 00:29:24,960
Feet.

643
00:29:25,220 --> 00:29:27,480
That be swift in running to mischief.

644
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:28,620
Listen to order.

645
00:29:29,740 --> 00:29:31,600
As he thinketh in his heart.

646
00:29:31,660 --> 00:29:32,120
So is he.

647
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:34,000
What you think.

648
00:29:35,260 --> 00:29:35,800
You are.

649
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:37,980
You are.

650
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,180
And heart.

651
00:29:42,500 --> 00:29:45,580
That devises wicked imaginations.

652
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:47,160
Feet.

653
00:29:47,860 --> 00:29:49,800
That be swift in running.

654
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,820
To mischief.

655
00:29:53,340 --> 00:29:54,540
Proverbs 6 verse 18.

656
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:56,340
Their feet.

657
00:29:57,420 --> 00:29:57,960
Run.

658
00:29:58,800 --> 00:29:59,500
To evil.

659
00:30:02,380 --> 00:30:03,240
Their thoughts.

660
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,180
Are thoughts of iniquity.

661
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:09,420
Isaiah 59 verse 7.

662
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,460
You see as he thinketh.

663
00:30:11,900 --> 00:30:12,600
In his heart.

664
00:30:13,500 --> 00:30:14,220
So is he.

665
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:16,640
God says.

666
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,640
What are you filling up in the reservoir

667
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:19,180
of your heart?

668
00:30:20,420 --> 00:30:25,820
Their feet.

669
00:30:28,420 --> 00:30:29,440
To evil.

670
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:31,100
Why?

671
00:30:31,620 --> 00:30:32,520
Their thoughts.

672
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,440
Are thoughts of iniquity.

673
00:30:36,380 --> 00:30:38,400
Isaiah 59 verse 7.

674
00:30:39,140 --> 00:30:40,700
Woe to them.

675
00:30:41,220 --> 00:30:42,860
That devise iniquity.

676
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:44,880
And work evil.

677
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:45,980
Upon their beds.

678
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,880
When the morning is light.

679
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,080
They practice it.

680
00:30:50,460 --> 00:30:51,840
You see as he thinketh in his heart.

681
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:52,260
So is he.

682
00:30:52,340 --> 00:30:53,020
Don't forget that.

683
00:30:53,700 --> 00:30:54,740
God tells you.

684
00:30:54,740 --> 00:30:55,640
You think these.

685
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:56,800
And you let these in your mind.

686
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:57,480
You do it.

687
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:00,040
What you think.

688
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:00,700
You are.

689
00:31:03,980 --> 00:31:04,900
Woe to them.

690
00:31:05,380 --> 00:31:06,980
That devise iniquity.

691
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:07,980
And work evil.

692
00:31:07,980 --> 00:31:08,800
Upon their beds.

693
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,400
When the morning is light.

694
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:11,900
They practice it.

695
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:13,920
They practice it.

696
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:14,940
Because it is in the power of their

697
00:31:14,940 --> 00:31:15,300
hands.

698
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:16,880
Micah 2 verse 1.

699
00:31:18,980 --> 00:31:19,760
Let the wicked.

700
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:21,780
Let the wicked.

701
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:23,660
Forsake his way.

702
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,720
And the unrighteous man.

703
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:26,580
His thoughts.

704
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:29,780
Isaiah 55 verse 7.

705
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:31,100
Do you know how that goes?

706
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:32,100
It is not two men.

707
00:31:33,180 --> 00:31:34,520
And another man.

708
00:31:35,140 --> 00:31:35,800
His thoughts.

709
00:31:36,020 --> 00:31:36,660
It is the same man.

710
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,760
It is literally like this in the Hebrew.

711
00:31:39,580 --> 00:31:40,940
Let the wicked forsake his way.

712
00:31:41,380 --> 00:31:42,360
The unrighteous man.

713
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:43,040
His thoughts.

714
00:31:43,260 --> 00:31:45,400
You see as he thinketh in his heart.

715
00:31:45,500 --> 00:31:45,960
So is he.

716
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,140
You want to forsake that way.

717
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,460
You want God to deal with it.

718
00:31:49,780 --> 00:31:50,300
Deal with it.

719
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,860
Let the wicked forsake his way.

720
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,420
And the unrighteous man.

721
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:58,740
His thoughts.

722
00:31:58,740 --> 00:31:59,860
Isaiah 55 verse 7.

723
00:32:00,220 --> 00:32:02,860
And bringing into captivity.

724
00:32:03,540 --> 00:32:05,160
Bringing into captivity.

725
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:06,540
Every thought.

726
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:08,420
Every thought.

727
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,020
To the obedience of Christ.

728
00:32:13,100 --> 00:32:14,520
2 Corinthians 10 verse 5.

729
00:32:14,740 --> 00:32:15,780
Bringing into captivity.

730
00:32:16,540 --> 00:32:17,400
Every thought.

731
00:32:17,500 --> 00:32:17,880
You can.

732
00:32:19,100 --> 00:32:19,780
You can.

733
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,000
You are as holy as you want to

734
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:22,120
be.

735
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,180
And any theologian that tells you different is

736
00:32:25,180 --> 00:32:25,480
a liar.

737
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,240
Don't you blame God.

738
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,240
That you live in sin.

739
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:32,700
While you lay in his name.

740
00:32:38,940 --> 00:32:40,080
Bringing into captivity.

741
00:32:40,660 --> 00:32:41,620
Every thought.

742
00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:43,240
To the obedience of Christ.

743
00:32:43,900 --> 00:32:45,080
2 Corinthians 10 verse 5.

744
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,920
And be not conformed.

745
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,160
To this world.

746
00:32:50,820 --> 00:32:53,160
But be ye transformed.

747
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,380
By the renewing of your mind.

748
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:57,880
Romans 2.

749
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:58,240
Romans 2.

750
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,820
By the renewing of your mind.

751
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:03,500
Finally brethren.

752
00:33:04,620 --> 00:33:05,640
Finally brethren.

753
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,940
What so ever things are true.

754
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,040
What so ever things are true.

755
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,380
What so ever things are honest.

756
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,060
What so ever things are just.

757
00:33:20,220 --> 00:33:22,160
What so ever things are pure.

758
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,400
What so ever things are lovely.

759
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,100
What so ever things are good report.

760
00:33:29,660 --> 00:33:31,360
If there be any virtue.

761
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,420
And if there be any praise.

762
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,780
Think on these things.

763
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:38,740
Philippians 4 verse 8.

764
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,300
I dare you.

765
00:33:42,740 --> 00:33:43,340
Young people.

766
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:45,860
To put that.

767
00:33:46,620 --> 00:33:47,640
On a little plaque.

768
00:33:48,460 --> 00:33:49,080
Boldly.

769
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:50,320
And put it over the music.

770
00:33:50,660 --> 00:33:52,120
Before you select.

771
00:33:53,060 --> 00:33:53,880
A CD.

772
00:33:54,700 --> 00:33:56,940
That you hope your mother and father.

773
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:57,600
Won't ever hear.

774
00:33:58,060 --> 00:34:00,280
I dare you.

775
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:01,380
Who have televisions.

776
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,580
To put that on top of your television.

777
00:34:06,420 --> 00:34:07,320
Do me a favor.

778
00:34:07,780 --> 00:34:08,580
Give it a chance.

779
00:34:09,340 --> 00:34:10,980
The same size as a screen.

780
00:34:11,380 --> 00:34:11,940
Put it on top.

781
00:34:12,699 --> 00:34:13,659
That whole verse.

782
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,100
In bold black letters.

783
00:34:16,060 --> 00:34:17,719
As you sit listening.

784
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,100
Knowing you know you are saying to God.

785
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:20,500
You as good as putting your fist up

786
00:34:20,500 --> 00:34:21,480
to heaven in his face.

787
00:34:22,100 --> 00:34:23,080
Knowing what he says.

788
00:34:24,699 --> 00:34:26,540
How easy it is to throw us out.

789
00:34:26,659 --> 00:34:27,600
Everything out of the conscience.

790
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,179
Put it on top of your television.

791
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,159
If you haven't got the strength to put

792
00:34:32,159 --> 00:34:32,540
it off.

793
00:34:33,199 --> 00:34:33,780
Throw it out.

794
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,239
Tell me something young man.

795
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:38,480
The videos.

796
00:34:38,940 --> 00:34:39,440
The music.

797
00:34:40,380 --> 00:34:41,179
The DVDs.

798
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:42,760
The programs.

799
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:43,580
The books.

800
00:34:45,380 --> 00:34:46,929
Is being entertained.

801
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,540
Worth being defiled.

802
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:54,800
Answer God.

803
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,160
Or why are you here tonight.

804
00:34:58,980 --> 00:35:00,780
Does it offend you that someone speaks like

805
00:35:00,780 --> 00:35:00,920
this.

806
00:35:01,140 --> 00:35:02,020
Someone has to.

807
00:35:03,860 --> 00:35:04,940
Someone has to.

808
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,360
Don't you judge me.

809
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:09,780
Judge me if I don't.

810
00:35:09,980 --> 00:35:11,080
Before there is nothing left.

811
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:11,900
Nothing left of the standard of.

812
00:35:12,540 --> 00:35:14,520
The world will be the standard of the

813
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:14,880
churches.

814
00:35:15,220 --> 00:35:16,100
Nothing left.

815
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:17,460
Be careful.

816
00:35:18,660 --> 00:35:20,880
Be careful church of Christ.

817
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,480
If you name the name of Jesus.

818
00:35:25,740 --> 00:35:27,560
What so ever things.

819
00:35:28,580 --> 00:35:29,360
Are true.

820
00:35:33,830 --> 00:35:35,450
That's why I get scared of novels.

821
00:35:37,070 --> 00:35:38,270
What so ever things.

822
00:35:39,270 --> 00:35:40,270
Are honest.

823
00:35:40,270 --> 00:35:42,690
What so ever things are just.

824
00:35:43,110 --> 00:35:44,870
What so ever things are pure.

825
00:35:46,110 --> 00:35:46,970
Music included.

826
00:35:48,030 --> 00:35:48,450
Books.

827
00:35:48,670 --> 00:35:49,230
Magazines.

828
00:35:51,130 --> 00:35:52,730
What so ever things are lovely.

829
00:35:53,270 --> 00:35:53,770
Lovely.

830
00:35:54,730 --> 00:35:56,770
Put it off child of God.

831
00:35:56,890 --> 00:35:57,470
If it's ugly.

832
00:35:58,250 --> 00:35:58,670
Music.

833
00:36:00,110 --> 00:36:02,070
If it's filthy words.

834
00:36:02,690 --> 00:36:04,910
If it's drowning out decency.

835
00:36:05,870 --> 00:36:06,690
Throw it out.

836
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,000
What so ever things are good.

837
00:36:17,220 --> 00:36:17,440
Report.

838
00:36:18,580 --> 00:36:20,080
If there be any virtue.

839
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:21,620
Child of God.

840
00:36:22,060 --> 00:36:23,860
If there is anything that can build you

841
00:36:23,860 --> 00:36:24,260
up.

842
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:25,080
Morally.

843
00:36:25,980 --> 00:36:27,360
To the standard of God.

844
00:36:27,540 --> 00:36:28,440
To a life of holiness.

845
00:36:30,180 --> 00:36:31,720
If there is anything that can do.

846
00:36:31,820 --> 00:36:33,080
Anything like that to keep you.

847
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:34,940
Anything that is the music you listen to.

848
00:36:35,020 --> 00:36:36,700
And it can build you up.

849
00:36:36,780 --> 00:36:38,780
Music that is godly and lovely and pure.

850
00:36:39,860 --> 00:36:41,900
It can keep you from negativeness.

851
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,760
God the holy ghost can use even music.

852
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:45,780
But the devil.

853
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,220
Will destroy anything you would ever know.

854
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,160
But you walk with Jesus Christ through music.

855
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:50,720
If it's not.

856
00:36:51,180 --> 00:36:52,520
If it's even got a question mark.

857
00:36:53,380 --> 00:36:53,900
You're finished.

858
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:55,640
As far as you tend to walk with

859
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:55,900
God.

860
00:37:02,540 --> 00:37:03,460
When a Christian.

861
00:37:04,980 --> 00:37:06,460
Continually fails God.

862
00:37:07,460 --> 00:37:08,480
When a Christian.

863
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:10,280
Continually fails God.

864
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:11,200
Firstly.

865
00:37:11,700 --> 00:37:12,800
With his eyes.

866
00:37:14,940 --> 00:37:16,620
With his eyes.

867
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:20,680
Secondly.

868
00:37:21,420 --> 00:37:22,900
With his thoughts.

869
00:37:25,580 --> 00:37:27,500
With his thoughts.

870
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,400
But thirdly.

871
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,980
With his lips.

872
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:41,160
When a Christian.

873
00:37:47,740 --> 00:37:48,620
With his lips.

874
00:37:52,130 --> 00:37:53,850
When does a Christian.

875
00:37:54,270 --> 00:37:55,070
Fail God with his lips.

876
00:37:55,170 --> 00:37:55,910
According to this book.

877
00:37:56,610 --> 00:37:58,350
When does a Christian fail God.

878
00:37:58,570 --> 00:37:59,590
With his lips.

879
00:38:00,230 --> 00:38:01,130
According to this book.

880
00:38:02,250 --> 00:38:02,710
Firstly.

881
00:38:03,370 --> 00:38:04,010
With lies.

882
00:38:05,970 --> 00:38:06,630
Lies.

883
00:38:08,390 --> 00:38:09,130
Lies.

884
00:38:10,530 --> 00:38:12,670
Thou shalt not.

885
00:38:12,990 --> 00:38:15,350
Bear false witness.

886
00:38:15,710 --> 00:38:16,830
Against thy neighbor.

887
00:38:17,750 --> 00:38:19,510
God said to his people.

888
00:38:19,810 --> 00:38:20,510
Watch the answer.

889
00:38:25,070 --> 00:38:26,690
Exodus 20 verse 16.

890
00:38:29,010 --> 00:38:30,530
Thou shalt not.

891
00:38:30,790 --> 00:38:32,530
Bear false witness.

892
00:38:32,730 --> 00:38:33,570
Against thy neighbor.

893
00:38:35,250 --> 00:38:36,010
Unhypocrite.

894
00:38:36,950 --> 00:38:37,710
Unhypocrite.

895
00:38:37,850 --> 00:38:38,570
With his mouth.

896
00:38:40,070 --> 00:38:40,930
Destroyeth his neighbor.

897
00:38:42,430 --> 00:38:43,190
Destroyeth.

898
00:38:43,750 --> 00:38:44,410
His neighbor.

899
00:38:47,890 --> 00:38:49,290
Proverbs chapter 29.

900
00:38:50,050 --> 00:38:51,230
The tongue.

901
00:38:52,610 --> 00:38:53,290
The tongue.

902
00:38:53,430 --> 00:38:55,550
The tongue is an unruly evil.

903
00:38:55,930 --> 00:38:58,790
Full of deadly poison.

904
00:38:59,590 --> 00:38:59,810
The tongue is an unruly evil.

905
00:38:59,810 --> 00:39:00,190
God says.

906
00:39:00,450 --> 00:39:01,370
James 3 verse 9.

907
00:39:02,010 --> 00:39:06,390
Lying lips or abomination.

908
00:39:06,950 --> 00:39:07,570
To the Lord.

909
00:39:08,670 --> 00:39:09,590
Proverbs chapter 22.

910
00:39:09,770 --> 00:39:10,390
Do you believe that?

911
00:39:10,390 --> 00:39:11,050
as you lie?

912
00:39:11,710 --> 00:39:12,290
Abomination!

913
00:39:13,670 --> 00:39:17,030
God says about you what you do.

914
00:39:17,230 --> 00:39:17,830
Abominable.

915
00:39:18,870 --> 00:39:20,910
Or does God play with words that you

916
00:39:20,910 --> 00:39:21,810
don't need to tell me about?

917
00:39:22,970 --> 00:39:26,170
Lying lips are abomination to the Lord.

918
00:39:27,290 --> 00:39:32,410
But these lips can lie in other evil

919
00:39:32,410 --> 00:39:33,150
ways, Christian.

920
00:39:34,090 --> 00:39:36,430
These lips can lie in other evil ways,

921
00:39:36,590 --> 00:39:36,850
Christian.

922
00:39:36,850 --> 00:39:41,410
These lips can lie in prayer.

923
00:39:44,150 --> 00:39:46,410
But a man's prayers are not meant for

924
00:39:46,410 --> 00:39:48,710
God but to impress others.

925
00:39:49,590 --> 00:39:53,410
His words, his words rise to heaven as

926
00:39:53,410 --> 00:39:55,990
a stance of evil hypocrisy.

927
00:39:55,990 --> 00:39:58,090
When a man's prayers are not meant for

928
00:39:58,090 --> 00:40:01,030
God but to impress others, his words rise

929
00:40:01,030 --> 00:40:04,630
to heaven as a stance of evil hypocrisy.

930
00:40:05,330 --> 00:40:08,710
Jesus Christ condemns men.

931
00:40:09,410 --> 00:40:14,070
In Matthew 23 verse 14, Christ condemns those

932
00:40:14,070 --> 00:40:18,210
who for a pretense make long prayers.

933
00:40:19,890 --> 00:40:23,490
Who for a pretense make long prayers.

934
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:42,980
In Matthew 6 verse 5, Jesus warns us,

935
00:40:43,700 --> 00:40:47,480
when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as

936
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:48,760
the hypocrites are.

937
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:50,980
Do you know what that word means now?

938
00:40:50,980 --> 00:40:55,260
The original usage of the Greek word hypocrite

939
00:40:55,260 --> 00:40:58,000
was an actual on a stage.

940
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,660
Now Jesus knew that when he said these

941
00:41:02,660 --> 00:41:07,440
terrifying words, when thou prayest thou shalt not

942
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,820
be as the hypocrites are.

943
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,740
Thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are.

944
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,600
For they love to pray standing in the

945
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,240
synagogues and in the corners of the streets

946
00:41:19,240 --> 00:41:21,700
that they may be seen of men.

947
00:41:23,420 --> 00:41:24,900
Verily I say unto you, they have their

948
00:41:24,900 --> 00:41:25,220
reward.

949
00:41:26,220 --> 00:41:27,420
They have their reward.

950
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:28,140
What reward?

951
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:30,940
Don't doubt this, nothing from God.

952
00:41:36,580 --> 00:41:38,480
There's no reward from heaven to such a

953
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:39,260
man.

954
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:44,740
Christ is talking of what they want.

955
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:46,560
They want to impress men.

956
00:41:47,300 --> 00:41:49,200
And men are so gullible, you've just got

957
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,840
to pray loud and long and they think

958
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:52,300
it's spiritual.

959
00:41:52,300 --> 00:41:53,680
So they have what they want.

960
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,340
It's the only reward they'll ever get.

961
00:41:57,980 --> 00:41:58,840
They impress men.

962
00:42:03,710 --> 00:42:04,710
They have their reward.

963
00:42:04,910 --> 00:42:10,330
But when thou prayest, when thou prayest, enter

964
00:42:10,330 --> 00:42:14,670
into thy closet, the most private place you

965
00:42:14,670 --> 00:42:16,490
can find in your circumstance of life.

966
00:42:17,190 --> 00:42:23,690
And when thou hast shut thy door, when

967
00:42:23,690 --> 00:42:27,510
thou hast shut thy door to the eyes

968
00:42:27,510 --> 00:42:30,870
and the ears of men, not for the

969
00:42:30,870 --> 00:42:32,570
eyes and the ears of men, be careful

970
00:42:32,570 --> 00:42:36,170
when you shut that door for whose eyes

971
00:42:36,170 --> 00:42:39,410
you're shutting it at four o'clock in

972
00:42:39,410 --> 00:42:39,710
the morning.

973
00:42:40,550 --> 00:42:41,590
Be careful.

974
00:42:43,950 --> 00:42:48,190
This separates the hypocrites from that which has

975
00:42:48,190 --> 00:42:50,790
any iota of reality in Christ's sight more

976
00:42:50,790 --> 00:42:52,210
than anything else in Christianity.

977
00:42:54,430 --> 00:42:58,830
When thou hast shut thy door, pray to

978
00:42:58,830 --> 00:43:01,670
thy Father which is in secret, which is

979
00:43:01,670 --> 00:43:05,850
in secret, and thy Father which seeth in

980
00:43:05,850 --> 00:43:09,350
secret shall reward thee openly.

981
00:43:11,250 --> 00:43:13,170
If you are not faithful in your prayer

982
00:43:13,170 --> 00:43:16,590
life when no one is watching, your public

983
00:43:16,590 --> 00:43:19,110
prayers are evil, hypocritical lies.

984
00:43:19,190 --> 00:43:19,910
Can I repeat that?

985
00:43:20,090 --> 00:43:21,790
If you are not faithful in your prayer

986
00:43:21,790 --> 00:43:24,950
life when no one is watching, your public

987
00:43:24,950 --> 00:43:28,410
prayers are evil, hypocritical lies.

988
00:43:30,990 --> 00:43:37,350
When a Christian continually, continually fails God with

989
00:43:37,350 --> 00:43:42,790
his lips, with lies, firstly with lies, secondly,

990
00:43:44,170 --> 00:43:53,870
secondly, with blasphemy, thou

991
00:43:53,870 --> 00:43:58,090
shalt not take the name of the Lord

992
00:43:58,090 --> 00:43:59,190
thy God in vain.

993
00:43:59,190 --> 00:44:03,930
For the Lord will not hold him guiltless,

994
00:44:04,050 --> 00:44:06,470
will not hold him guiltless that taketh his

995
00:44:06,470 --> 00:44:07,250
name in vain.

996
00:44:09,070 --> 00:44:12,310
Neither shalt thou profane the name of the

997
00:44:12,310 --> 00:44:13,030
Lord thy God.

998
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,620
Christian, don't ever use God's name irreverently.

999
00:44:26,140 --> 00:44:29,880
Don't ever use the name of Jesus, don't

1000
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,080
ever use God's name irreverently or as a

1001
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,820
swear word or curse word in exasperation or

1002
00:44:35,820 --> 00:44:36,080
anger.

1003
00:44:38,240 --> 00:44:41,780
When a Christian continually fails God with his

1004
00:44:41,780 --> 00:44:47,460
lips, firstly with lies, secondly, with blasphemy, thirdly,

1005
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:55,460
by making oaths, by making oaths to try

1006
00:44:55,460 --> 00:44:57,060
and add credibility to what he's saying.

1007
00:44:59,300 --> 00:45:04,060
In Matthew 5 verse 33, Jesus said, again

1008
00:45:04,060 --> 00:45:06,000
we have heard that it hath been said

1009
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:07,780
by them of old times, thou shalt not

1010
00:45:07,780 --> 00:45:11,200
persuade thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord

1011
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:12,200
thine oaths.

1012
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,660
But I say unto you, swear not at

1013
00:45:14,660 --> 00:45:17,700
all, neither by heaven, for it is God's

1014
00:45:17,700 --> 00:45:21,080
throne, nor by the earth, for it is

1015
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:26,600
his footstool, neither by Jerusalem, for it is

1016
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,240
the city of the great King.

1017
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:32,940
It is the city of the great King,

1018
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,700
neither shalt thou swear by thine head, because

1019
00:45:36,700 --> 00:45:40,040
thou canst not make one hair white or

1020
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,240
black, but let your communication be yea, yea,

1021
00:45:43,380 --> 00:45:46,040
nay, nay, yes or no, for whatsoever is

1022
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:47,820
more than these cometh of evil.

1023
00:45:47,820 --> 00:45:50,800
For whatsoever is more than these cometh of

1024
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:51,220
evil.

1025
00:45:52,340 --> 00:45:54,920
In James chapter 5 verse 12, we read,

1026
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,960
but about all things, my brethren, about all

1027
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,240
things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven,

1028
00:46:01,340 --> 00:46:03,100
neither by the earth, neither by any other

1029
00:46:03,100 --> 00:46:05,420
oath, but let your yea be yea and

1030
00:46:05,420 --> 00:46:07,520
your nay, nay, lest ye fall into condemnation.

1031
00:46:09,420 --> 00:46:13,200
It is an insult to Christ's name if

1032
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,900
a Christian is required to say anything more

1033
00:46:15,900 --> 00:46:18,120
than yes or no to be believed.

1034
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:22,340
It is an insult to Christ's name if

1035
00:46:22,340 --> 00:46:24,580
a Christian is required to say anything more

1036
00:46:24,580 --> 00:46:27,720
than yes or no to be believed.

1037
00:46:29,900 --> 00:46:34,960
When a Christian continually fails God, continually fails

1038
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,320
God with his lips, with his lips firstly

1039
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:41,980
with lies, secondly with blasphemy, thirdly by making

1040
00:46:41,980 --> 00:46:50,140
oaths, fourthly by using coarse filthy language.

1041
00:46:50,140 --> 00:46:57,660
When a Christian continually fails God, continually fails

1042
00:46:57,660 --> 00:46:58,060
God with his lips, fourthly by making oaths,

1043
00:46:58,060 --> 00:47:01,980
fifthly by using coarse filthy language.

1044
00:47:04,100 --> 00:47:09,000
Put off all filthy communication out of your

1045
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,260
mouth, Colossians 3 verse 8.

1046
00:47:12,340 --> 00:47:15,620
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your

1047
00:47:15,620 --> 00:47:15,920
mouth.

1048
00:47:19,620 --> 00:47:24,720
Ephesians 4 verse 29, neither filthiness nor foolish

1049
00:47:24,720 --> 00:47:29,440
talking, Ephesians 5 verse 4, this holy book

1050
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:34,820
condemns, condemns those whose mouth is full of

1051
00:47:34,820 --> 00:47:38,360
cursing, the great there says obscenities.

1052
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,820
This holy book condemns those whose mouth is

1053
00:47:42,820 --> 00:47:45,520
full of cursing, Romans 3 verse 14, but

1054
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:49,820
oh, if a Christian, if a Christian continually

1055
00:47:49,820 --> 00:47:52,860
fails God with his mouth by using coarse

1056
00:47:52,860 --> 00:47:57,000
filthy language, that is tragic, that is shameful.

1057
00:47:57,910 --> 00:48:07,680
When a Christian continually, continually fails

1058
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:13,560
God with his lips, firstly with lies, lies,

1059
00:48:13,820 --> 00:48:18,640
secondly with blasphemy, thirdly by making oaths, fourthly

1060
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:27,820
by using coarse filthy language, fifthly with murmuring,

1061
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:38,000
with murmuring, with murmuring, do all

1062
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:44,020
things without murmuring and disputing, Philippians 2 verse

1063
00:48:44,020 --> 00:48:50,620
14, do all things without murmuring and disputing.

1064
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:54,120
But careful now, that's not the end, the

1065
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:55,480
next verse tells you why.

1066
00:48:56,740 --> 00:49:02,320
Verse 15, that ye may be blameless and

1067
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,220
harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke.

1068
00:49:05,220 --> 00:49:10,760
Listen sister, beginning in the home, you will

1069
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,000
never, ever be blameless and harmless, the sons

1070
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,200
of God, without rebuke, until you do the

1071
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,280
statement, not just look at the feet of

1072
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:20,740
the statement.

1073
00:49:20,740 --> 00:49:24,020
The statement is this, do all things without

1074
00:49:24,020 --> 00:49:26,420
murmuring in your home, otherwise you'll send your

1075
00:49:26,420 --> 00:49:27,120
children to hell.

1076
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,340
That ye may be blameless is the result

1077
00:49:31,340 --> 00:49:34,920
of this, harmless, the sons of God, without

1078
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:39,020
rebuke, and that will never be possible until

1079
00:49:39,020 --> 00:49:41,360
you do all things by God's grace without

1080
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,080
murmuring and disputing.

1081
00:49:46,140 --> 00:49:53,560
In everything give thanks, not for everything, that

1082
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,960
would be obnoxious to God, but in spite

1083
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:59,720
of anything, God allows in your circumstances in

1084
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:03,780
the school of God, in spite of anything

1085
00:50:03,780 --> 00:50:05,460
God allows, he's still God.

1086
00:50:06,580 --> 00:50:09,200
Nothing will come near you, if it wasn't

1087
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:10,900
for you to pass in a jam, and

1088
00:50:10,900 --> 00:50:14,260
we're all in a school of God, in

1089
00:50:17,430 --> 00:50:23,010
everything, in spite of anything time, but I

1090
00:50:23,010 --> 00:50:27,790
allow, in everything, don't let the devil just

1091
00:50:27,790 --> 00:50:29,930
put one mountain, that's all it takes to

1092
00:50:29,930 --> 00:50:31,210
become a perfect murmurer.

1093
00:50:31,830 --> 00:50:34,250
When all God cries out to make you

1094
00:50:34,250 --> 00:50:35,990
a perfect worshipper, what are you?

1095
00:50:36,150 --> 00:50:37,610
Not in the building you're sitting in now,

1096
00:50:37,650 --> 00:50:40,670
that's easy to say hallelujah, you are as

1097
00:50:40,670 --> 00:50:44,450
real lady, as when everything goes wrong, that

1098
00:50:44,450 --> 00:50:46,050
you can say thank you, otherwise you've got

1099
00:50:46,050 --> 00:50:52,790
to leave the school, your children are there

1100
00:50:52,790 --> 00:50:58,300
to know how far you've

1101
00:50:58,300 --> 00:51:07,900
come.

1102
00:51:07,900 --> 00:51:10,120
Millions would crawl on their knees on glass

1103
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,720
for one kilometer, for one mile, to have

1104
00:51:12,720 --> 00:51:15,460
one tenth of what you've got, don't stop

1105
00:51:15,460 --> 00:51:16,920
thanking me if the devil gives you one

1106
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:22,440
problem, don't start becoming a perfect murmurer, the

1107
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,000
devil will put one mountain in your life

1108
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:25,420
every day till you die, and that will

1109
00:51:25,420 --> 00:51:27,260
keep you from praising, from fulfilling.

1110
00:51:27,260 --> 00:51:31,840
In everything, give thanks for this, this is

1111
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,080
the will of God, in Christ Jesus concerning

1112
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,600
you, this is the will of God, in

1113
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:39,960
Christ Jesus concerning you, 1 Thessalonians 5 verse

1114
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,320
18, although the fig tree shall not blossom,

1115
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:51,380
neither shall fruit be in the vine, the

1116
00:51:51,380 --> 00:51:56,820
labor of the olive shall fail, and the

1117
00:51:56,820 --> 00:52:02,760
fields shall yield no meat, the flock shall

1118
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:06,780
be cut off from the fold, and there

1119
00:52:06,780 --> 00:52:11,760
shall be no herd in the storm, yet

1120
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,760
I will rejoice in the Lord, I rejoice

1121
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:19,000
in the God of my salvation, Habakkuk 3

1122
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:20,120
verse 17 and 18.

1123
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:21,700
Do you think these are just words?

1124
00:52:21,980 --> 00:52:23,640
This is the set workbook of the school

1125
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:24,800
of God that every one of you in,

1126
00:52:24,980 --> 00:52:28,320
you only have one set book in God's

1127
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:31,300
school, everything you read you suddenly will face

1128
00:52:31,300 --> 00:52:33,280
in a jam, until you pass what God

1129
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,400
says, it's not words to read to prick

1130
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,100
the picking ears you know, this you will

1131
00:52:38,100 --> 00:52:41,560
face, every single one of you when everything

1132
00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:42,140
goes wrong.

1133
00:52:43,140 --> 00:52:46,900
When everything was taken from Job in one

1134
00:52:46,900 --> 00:52:50,400
devastating tragic moment, when everything was taken from

1135
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:54,460
Job in one devastating tragic moment, his wife,

1136
00:52:54,780 --> 00:52:59,700
his helpmate, turned to him in brokenness and

1137
00:52:59,700 --> 00:53:02,320
confusion in chapter 2 verse 9 and said,

1138
00:53:02,980 --> 00:53:09,360
curse God, curse God and don't die.

1139
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:18,460
But he said unto her, thou speakest as

1140
00:53:18,460 --> 00:53:20,780
one of the foolish women speakest.

1141
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:26,020
What, shall we receive good at the hand

1142
00:53:26,020 --> 00:53:29,180
of God and shall we not receive evil?

1143
00:53:30,860 --> 00:53:33,580
Do we only trust God and serve him

1144
00:53:33,580 --> 00:53:35,360
if everything goes right in life?

1145
00:53:37,420 --> 00:53:39,760
Shall we receive good at the hand of

1146
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:41,660
God and shall we not receive evil?

1147
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:45,700
In all this, in all this did not

1148
00:53:45,700 --> 00:53:46,880
Job sin with his lips.

1149
00:53:48,500 --> 00:53:49,060
Hallelujah.

1150
00:53:49,660 --> 00:53:53,180
And sister, if Job could do that, you

1151
00:53:53,180 --> 00:53:53,360
can.

1152
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:56,100
You can brother.

1153
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:02,880
And God's waiting, waiting for you to, before

1154
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:05,400
he'll stop putting you through his exams, you've

1155
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:06,240
got to pass the exam.

1156
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,600
You'll face it till death in God's hope

1157
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,500
that you might just rise up to prove

1158
00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:14,880
that he can give you the grace you

1159
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,280
need to pass the separate book.

1160
00:54:17,740 --> 00:54:20,500
The standard of God in this book is

1161
00:54:20,500 --> 00:54:22,180
not to tickle our ears, it's to live,

1162
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,020
it's to live, it's to live.

1163
00:54:27,930 --> 00:54:35,890
By him, by him therefore, our high priest,

1164
00:54:36,690 --> 00:54:41,190
Jesus, let us offer the sacrifice of praise

1165
00:54:41,190 --> 00:54:42,930
to God continually.

1166
00:54:43,330 --> 00:54:45,150
That is the fruit of our lips, giving

1167
00:54:45,150 --> 00:54:47,430
thanks to his name, Hebrews 13 verse 15.

1168
00:54:47,710 --> 00:54:50,430
By him therefore, let us offer the sacrifice

1169
00:54:50,430 --> 00:54:51,310
of praise.

1170
00:54:51,950 --> 00:54:55,490
When it's not easy, listen, an unsaved person

1171
00:54:55,490 --> 00:54:57,030
with a Bible, and I wonder how many

1172
00:54:57,030 --> 00:55:00,290
of them are, can shout hallelujah louder than

1173
00:55:00,290 --> 00:55:03,210
anybody in the world every Sunday, if everything

1174
00:55:03,210 --> 00:55:03,690
goes right.

1175
00:55:04,830 --> 00:55:08,230
But when things go wrong, God shifts out

1176
00:55:08,230 --> 00:55:09,750
the truth from the false and you find

1177
00:55:09,750 --> 00:55:12,350
out fast in the home, whether your mother

1178
00:55:12,350 --> 00:55:14,590
and father are truly right with God or

1179
00:55:14,590 --> 00:55:16,090
saved or disreligious.

1180
00:55:19,490 --> 00:55:19,970
How?

1181
00:55:19,970 --> 00:55:21,610
Just let things go wrong, brother.

1182
00:55:23,050 --> 00:55:24,590
Just let things go wrong, sister.

1183
00:55:27,750 --> 00:55:30,810
Those that it's a sacrifice, that's when praise

1184
00:55:30,810 --> 00:55:31,950
is worth something to God.

1185
00:55:33,530 --> 00:55:38,370
Until then, lady, your praise is as good

1186
00:55:38,370 --> 00:55:40,530
as an unsaved who will praise God forever,

1187
00:55:40,670 --> 00:55:42,250
never been born again if everything goes right.

1188
00:55:43,410 --> 00:55:48,410
And they do praise God until, and I

1189
00:55:48,410 --> 00:55:51,830
watched it, until things go wrong, they throw

1190
00:55:51,830 --> 00:55:53,630
that book down and curse God like the

1191
00:55:53,630 --> 00:55:55,150
devil said Job would, but Job didn't.

1192
00:55:56,750 --> 00:55:58,530
He did it because he was real.

1193
00:56:01,590 --> 00:56:01,950
Hallelujah.

1194
00:56:04,690 --> 00:56:07,670
By him therefore, Jesus, our high priest, let

1195
00:56:07,670 --> 00:56:10,230
us offer the sacrifice.

1196
00:56:10,350 --> 00:56:11,750
When it's not easy, but you're still going

1197
00:56:11,750 --> 00:56:12,490
to go on praising.

1198
00:56:12,950 --> 00:56:14,650
Oh, the devil hurls back in all his

1199
00:56:14,650 --> 00:56:17,010
demons, billions of miles, screaming in fear when

1200
00:56:17,010 --> 00:56:17,790
a man praises.

1201
00:56:18,750 --> 00:56:21,810
When everything, God allows the devil to hurt.

1202
00:56:24,390 --> 00:56:25,430
That's godliness.

1203
00:56:33,740 --> 00:56:39,520
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of

1204
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:40,440
thanksgiving.

1205
00:56:42,660 --> 00:56:44,820
Psalm 114 verse 17.

1206
00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,960
When a Christian, when a Christian, when a

1207
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:55,300
Christian continually fails God with his lips, firstly

1208
00:56:55,300 --> 00:57:00,880
with lies, secondly with blasphemy, thirdly by making

1209
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:06,520
oaths, fourthly by using coarse, filthy language, fifthly

1210
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:11,100
with murmurings, murmurings, murmurings, until they in the

1211
00:57:11,100 --> 00:57:11,820
church, until they look.

1212
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:15,620
Then it's a lie.

1213
00:57:17,420 --> 00:57:19,400
Because that's not what they are.

1214
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:21,500
They're no Christian watcher.

1215
00:57:24,150 --> 00:57:34,690
Sixthly, with whisperings, with whisperings, with

1216
00:57:34,690 --> 00:57:43,240
whisperings, speak not evil one of another brethren.

1217
00:57:43,940 --> 00:57:44,840
James 4 verse 11.

1218
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:49,240
He that uttereth a slander, he that uttereth

1219
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,120
a slander is a fool.

1220
00:57:53,940 --> 00:57:55,360
Proverbs 10 verse 18.

1221
00:57:56,480 --> 00:58:01,340
A whisperer, a whisperer, separated chief friends.

1222
00:58:01,820 --> 00:58:04,820
No one can do that in the devil's

1223
00:58:04,820 --> 00:58:06,780
hands but a whisperer.

1224
00:58:10,810 --> 00:58:14,270
A whisperer, separated chief friends.

1225
00:58:15,530 --> 00:58:16,490
Proverbs 16 verse 28.

1226
00:58:17,910 --> 00:58:21,190
Where no wood is, where no wood is,

1227
00:58:21,310 --> 00:58:23,770
there, there the fire goes out.

1228
00:58:23,770 --> 00:58:28,210
So, where there is no tale bearer, the

1229
00:58:28,210 --> 00:58:29,450
Hebrew is whisperer.

1230
00:58:30,090 --> 00:58:33,190
Where there is no tale bearer, the strife

1231
00:58:33,190 --> 00:58:33,730
ceases.

1232
00:58:34,770 --> 00:58:37,330
Show me a church divided, show me a

1233
00:58:37,330 --> 00:58:39,650
movement crumbling, crashing, divided.

1234
00:58:40,230 --> 00:58:42,650
I'll find you just one whisperer who did

1235
00:58:42,650 --> 00:58:42,950
that.

1236
00:58:44,450 --> 00:58:45,710
That's all the devil needs.

1237
00:58:49,470 --> 00:58:53,110
So, where there is no tale bearer, whisperer,

1238
00:58:53,110 --> 00:58:54,830
the strife ceases.

1239
00:58:55,290 --> 00:58:56,010
God says.

1240
00:58:57,570 --> 00:58:58,650
God says.

1241
00:58:58,970 --> 00:59:00,170
Proverbs 26 verse 20.

1242
00:59:02,870 --> 00:59:07,970
When a Christian continually fails God, continually fails

1243
00:59:07,970 --> 00:59:11,550
God with his lips, firstly with lies, secondly

1244
00:59:11,550 --> 00:59:15,410
with blasphemy, thirdly by making oaths, fourthly by

1245
00:59:15,410 --> 00:59:15,690
using his tongue.

1246
00:59:15,710 --> 00:59:21,990
Using coarse, filthy language, fifthly with murmurings, murmurings,

1247
00:59:22,150 --> 00:59:28,490
sixthly with whisperings, whisperings, whisperings, whisperings, seventhly

1248
00:59:28,490 --> 00:59:36,570
with endless, endless, endless

1249
00:59:36,570 --> 00:59:39,950
babblings.

1250
00:59:46,850 --> 00:59:51,450
Avoiding vain, babbling, empty talk, literally.

1251
00:59:53,870 --> 00:59:55,070
1 Timothy 6 verse 20.

1252
00:59:56,210 --> 01:00:00,690
But some, some vain babblings, worthless talk, for

1253
01:00:00,690 --> 01:00:03,750
they will increase unto more ungodliness.

1254
01:00:04,430 --> 01:00:07,150
They will increase unto more ungodliness.

1255
01:00:07,830 --> 01:00:09,150
2 Timothy 2 verse 16.

1256
01:00:10,690 --> 01:00:15,650
In the multitude of words, in the multitude

1257
01:00:15,650 --> 01:00:18,570
of words there wanteth not sin, there lacks

1258
01:00:18,570 --> 01:00:19,610
no sin in that light.

1259
01:00:20,190 --> 01:00:22,030
Trust me, God doesn't make a mistake if

1260
01:00:22,030 --> 01:00:23,170
he tells you that it's true.

1261
01:00:24,110 --> 01:00:28,710
In the multitude of words there wanteth not

1262
01:00:28,710 --> 01:00:32,170
sin, but he that refraineth his lips is

1263
01:00:32,170 --> 01:00:32,750
wise.

1264
01:00:34,110 --> 01:00:35,150
Proverbs 10 verse 19.

1265
01:00:35,150 --> 01:00:40,530
In the multitude of words there wanteth not

1266
01:00:40,530 --> 01:00:41,570
sin, you can be sure of it.

1267
01:00:42,070 --> 01:00:42,790
Get away from that.

1268
01:00:43,850 --> 01:00:45,810
There's sin about that.

1269
01:00:46,050 --> 01:00:49,470
In the multitude of words there wanteth not

1270
01:00:49,470 --> 01:00:53,410
sin, suffer not thy mouth to cause thy

1271
01:00:53,410 --> 01:00:54,470
flesh to sin.

1272
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:01,100
Kenneth Ecclesiastes 5 verse 6.

1273
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,400
So is the tongue among our members that

1274
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:08,080
it defileth the whole body, and setteth on

1275
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:09,280
fire the course of nature.

1276
01:01:09,580 --> 01:01:10,460
James 3 verse 6.

1277
01:01:10,740 --> 01:01:12,720
So is the tongue among our members that

1278
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,200
it defileth the whole body.

1279
01:01:17,300 --> 01:01:18,900
This is the tip of the iceberg.

1280
01:01:20,020 --> 01:01:22,340
No control here, no control anywhere, God says.

1281
01:01:23,900 --> 01:01:25,400
And God doesn't lie.

1282
01:01:26,060 --> 01:01:28,100
We don't argue, we have no control here.

1283
01:01:28,940 --> 01:01:32,120
You have no victory anywhere the devil wants

1284
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:32,660
to come.

1285
01:01:41,610 --> 01:01:45,870
Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh

1286
01:01:45,870 --> 01:01:46,710
to sin.

1287
01:01:49,270 --> 01:01:51,630
So is the tongue among our members that

1288
01:01:51,630 --> 01:01:54,650
it defileth the whole body, and setteth on

1289
01:01:54,650 --> 01:01:56,090
fire the course of nature.

1290
01:01:56,790 --> 01:01:57,630
James 3 verse 6.

1291
01:01:58,730 --> 01:02:01,690
In the multitude of words there wanteth not

1292
01:02:01,690 --> 01:02:03,070
sin, they let no sin in their life.

1293
01:02:04,470 --> 01:02:05,310
They let no sin.

1294
01:02:15,540 --> 01:02:17,920
A fool, that's a terrible word.

1295
01:02:18,140 --> 01:02:20,080
God says you must dare never call a

1296
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:22,200
man a fool, or God will judge you.

1297
01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:24,460
But if God calls you a fool.

1298
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:31,220
A fool, God says, also is full of

1299
01:02:31,220 --> 01:02:31,900
words.

1300
01:02:33,500 --> 01:02:34,560
Full of words.

1301
01:02:35,620 --> 01:02:36,960
Ecclesiastes 10 verse 14.

1302
01:02:37,780 --> 01:02:41,520
A fool uttereth all his mind.

1303
01:02:42,620 --> 01:02:44,260
Proverbs 29 verse 11.

1304
01:02:44,980 --> 01:02:48,640
A fool's mouth is his destruction.

1305
01:02:49,900 --> 01:02:50,980
Proverbs 18 verse 7.

1306
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:55,280
He that hath knowledge, spareth his word.

1307
01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:58,560
Proverbs 18 verse 27.

1308
01:02:58,820 --> 01:03:03,700
Even a fool, even a fool when he

1309
01:03:03,700 --> 01:03:06,240
holdeth his peace is counted as wise.

1310
01:03:07,100 --> 01:03:10,440
And he that shutteth his lips is esteemed

1311
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:11,220
a man of understanding.

1312
01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:12,680
Proverbs 27 verse 28.

1313
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:17,520
17 verse 29.

1314
01:03:20,450 --> 01:03:22,790
But wait now, beloved, to conclude this point.

1315
01:03:23,390 --> 01:03:23,870
Listen carefully.

1316
01:03:25,810 --> 01:03:29,670
A man hath joy.

1317
01:03:32,750 --> 01:03:34,150
Now, if you all had a piece of

1318
01:03:34,150 --> 01:03:36,790
paper, and you were utterly honest with what

1319
01:03:36,790 --> 01:03:38,010
you think would make you happy.

1320
01:03:40,770 --> 01:03:42,870
If my children were all godly and none

1321
01:03:42,870 --> 01:03:43,670
of them were rebellious.

1322
01:03:45,930 --> 01:03:48,850
If my wife finally becomes a slave unless

1323
01:03:48,850 --> 01:03:50,510
we trample over her and doesn't say boo.

1324
01:03:52,170 --> 01:03:53,150
Which she should do.

1325
01:03:54,130 --> 01:03:55,770
In your understanding of the scripture.

1326
01:03:56,870 --> 01:03:57,750
You're so calm.

1327
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:01,800
A man hath joy.

1328
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:05,900
If financially he prospered and isn't got any

1329
01:04:05,900 --> 01:04:06,660
fears about tomorrow.

1330
01:04:07,860 --> 01:04:08,760
In his workplace.

1331
01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:10,740
Oh, I could go on.

1332
01:04:11,300 --> 01:04:13,000
But this isn't what God who created you

1333
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:15,120
and who says to you what will give

1334
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:15,420
you joy.

1335
01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:17,680
A man hath joy.

1336
01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:21,240
By the answer of his mouth.

1337
01:04:27,110 --> 01:04:28,690
By the answer of his mouth.

1338
01:04:28,890 --> 01:04:29,930
Proverbs 15 verse 23.

1339
01:04:31,310 --> 01:04:33,090
Why, you see, the joy of the Lord

1340
01:04:33,090 --> 01:04:33,630
is your sin.

1341
01:04:33,930 --> 01:04:35,410
And God isn't up there a billion miles

1342
01:04:35,410 --> 01:04:35,590
away.

1343
01:04:35,710 --> 01:04:36,130
He's in you.

1344
01:04:37,470 --> 01:04:40,630
And the Holy Spirit's joy when you pass

1345
01:04:40,630 --> 01:04:42,770
the exam, no matter what ugliness is happening

1346
01:04:42,770 --> 01:04:43,450
to your children.

1347
01:04:43,850 --> 01:04:44,570
To your wife even.

1348
01:04:45,430 --> 01:04:46,410
To your enemies.

1349
01:04:48,750 --> 01:04:50,230
A man hath joy.

1350
01:04:50,410 --> 01:04:51,190
God's joy.

1351
01:04:52,550 --> 01:04:54,810
You want to know why so many Christians

1352
01:04:54,810 --> 01:04:55,430
look miserable.

1353
01:04:55,670 --> 01:04:56,950
Like it's a curse to be saved.

1354
01:04:57,410 --> 01:04:59,990
Because they just fail all the time here.

1355
01:05:00,090 --> 01:05:01,070
And it's God's grief.

1356
01:05:01,510 --> 01:05:03,250
It's not your grief when the Holy Spirit

1357
01:05:03,250 --> 01:05:04,590
is in you and you fail with the

1358
01:05:04,590 --> 01:05:04,810
tongue.

1359
01:05:05,310 --> 01:05:06,590
Because that's the tip of the iceberg of

1360
01:05:06,590 --> 01:05:07,510
what you're going to fail with anyway.

1361
01:05:09,010 --> 01:05:10,750
Oh, the grief of God written on people's

1362
01:05:10,750 --> 01:05:12,490
eyes because they fail all the time.

1363
01:05:12,590 --> 01:05:13,210
Beginning in the home.

1364
01:05:15,390 --> 01:05:16,350
It doesn't work in the home.

1365
01:05:16,390 --> 01:05:17,030
It doesn't work anywhere.

1366
01:05:17,310 --> 01:05:18,050
The rest is just a sham.

1367
01:05:19,490 --> 01:05:21,390
You're as real as you are in the

1368
01:05:21,390 --> 01:05:21,630
home.

1369
01:05:21,990 --> 01:05:23,190
And your children's just an idiot.

1370
01:05:24,010 --> 01:05:24,810
Is all you're worth.

1371
01:05:26,970 --> 01:05:28,090
If they're honest, that is.

1372
01:05:30,310 --> 01:05:31,690
A man hath joy.

1373
01:05:32,210 --> 01:05:32,710
God's joy.

1374
01:05:33,050 --> 01:05:34,090
The joy of the Lord.

1375
01:05:34,390 --> 01:05:35,990
You think it's your own joy when suddenly,

1376
01:05:36,230 --> 01:05:38,790
when everything's come against everybody's crew, everybody's unjust

1377
01:05:38,790 --> 01:05:40,470
to you, and you have joy?

1378
01:05:40,750 --> 01:05:41,390
That's just enough.

1379
01:05:41,490 --> 01:05:42,070
It's impossible.

1380
01:05:42,230 --> 01:05:44,310
But with God, it's joy unspeakable.

1381
01:05:45,210 --> 01:05:46,690
There's no way you could understand or you

1382
01:05:46,690 --> 01:05:48,050
could take, but God does it.

1383
01:05:48,670 --> 01:05:50,030
He gives you joy, brother.

1384
01:05:50,130 --> 01:05:51,350
There might be a tear in your eye

1385
01:05:51,350 --> 01:05:52,150
to who's doing it.

1386
01:05:53,210 --> 01:05:55,110
But it doesn't wake away God's peace.

1387
01:05:55,110 --> 01:05:56,590
And God's joy.

1388
01:05:57,250 --> 01:05:59,950
Because you know God's smile at you.

1389
01:06:00,030 --> 01:06:01,430
You know God's smile.

1390
01:06:01,710 --> 01:06:03,590
And heaven sometimes stands in despair.

1391
01:06:04,510 --> 01:06:05,630
Are you conscious of it?

1392
01:06:05,970 --> 01:06:06,770
Don't tell me you're not.

1393
01:06:07,650 --> 01:06:09,310
Depending on how severe the trial is.

1394
01:06:10,930 --> 01:06:13,870
A man hath joy by the answer of

1395
01:06:13,870 --> 01:06:14,550
his mouth.

1396
01:06:18,810 --> 01:06:20,410
For he that will love life.

1397
01:06:21,250 --> 01:06:23,430
He that will love life and see good

1398
01:06:23,430 --> 01:06:23,850
days.

1399
01:06:24,370 --> 01:06:26,270
Tell me somebody in this building who doesn't

1400
01:06:26,270 --> 01:06:26,730
want that.

1401
01:06:26,730 --> 01:06:27,730
Be honest.

1402
01:06:27,810 --> 01:06:27,930
Be honest now.

1403
01:06:28,270 --> 01:06:30,610
Who wants to hate life and see everything

1404
01:06:30,610 --> 01:06:30,990
wrong?

1405
01:06:32,410 --> 01:06:33,150
So you're honest?

1406
01:06:33,430 --> 01:06:34,610
Of course you want to love life.

1407
01:06:34,670 --> 01:06:37,270
So God says, he that will love life.

1408
01:06:37,670 --> 01:06:38,570
Every one of us want that.

1409
01:06:38,970 --> 01:06:39,390
You want it?

1410
01:06:39,490 --> 01:06:40,450
You want to do what God says.

1411
01:06:40,590 --> 01:06:42,330
What God says will be the first time

1412
01:06:42,330 --> 01:06:43,510
you honestly will love life.

1413
01:06:43,910 --> 01:06:45,250
And see good days.

1414
01:06:46,850 --> 01:06:48,150
And now we put the paper around and

1415
01:06:48,150 --> 01:06:49,130
the pens in it to see where you

1416
01:06:49,130 --> 01:06:49,510
go now.

1417
01:06:52,830 --> 01:06:57,830
The young fellow looks and says, to love

1418
01:06:57,830 --> 01:06:58,310
life.

1419
01:06:58,810 --> 01:07:03,750
See, only that girl would just look at

1420
01:07:03,750 --> 01:07:03,910
me.

1421
01:07:04,590 --> 01:07:05,570
Let alone marry me.

1422
01:07:05,810 --> 01:07:06,590
It's just a little bit harsh.

1423
01:07:07,350 --> 01:07:08,230
He that will love life.

1424
01:07:08,310 --> 01:07:09,490
What reason would you give?

1425
01:07:11,010 --> 01:07:12,390
What do you want to put down in

1426
01:07:12,390 --> 01:07:13,130
your conscience?

1427
01:07:13,310 --> 01:07:14,290
In honesty before God.

1428
01:07:14,350 --> 01:07:15,930
What you will believe you will never be

1429
01:07:15,930 --> 01:07:16,750
able to love life.

1430
01:07:17,090 --> 01:07:18,050
Until such things happen.

1431
01:07:18,190 --> 01:07:19,490
There are priorities on the other side.

1432
01:07:19,510 --> 01:07:21,130
But God tells you.

1433
01:07:21,490 --> 01:07:22,530
No matter what happens in life.

1434
01:07:22,690 --> 01:07:24,570
He that will love life.

1435
01:07:24,730 --> 01:07:26,610
And see good days.

1436
01:07:26,730 --> 01:07:28,770
Let him refrain his tongue from evil.

1437
01:07:29,810 --> 01:07:31,790
And his lips that they speak no guile.

1438
01:07:32,130 --> 01:07:32,930
Nothing questionable.

1439
01:07:33,630 --> 01:07:34,510
One Peter.

1440
01:07:35,810 --> 01:07:36,550
Three verse ten.

1441
01:07:40,950 --> 01:07:42,470
Whoso keepeth his mouth.

1442
01:07:43,130 --> 01:07:44,090
And his tongue.

1443
01:07:44,850 --> 01:07:46,070
Keepeth his soul.

1444
01:07:46,470 --> 01:07:47,130
Can I repeat it?

1445
01:07:48,850 --> 01:07:51,030
Whoso keepeth his mouth.

1446
01:07:51,270 --> 01:07:51,850
And his tongue.

1447
01:07:52,490 --> 01:07:53,450
Keepeth his soul.

1448
01:07:53,810 --> 01:07:54,270
From troubles.

1449
01:07:56,810 --> 01:07:58,310
Proverbs 21 verse 23.

1450
01:07:59,490 --> 01:08:01,050
He that keepeth his mouth.

1451
01:08:01,550 --> 01:08:02,650
Keepeth his life.

1452
01:08:02,990 --> 01:08:03,570
God says.

1453
01:08:04,810 --> 01:08:06,070
Keepeth his life.

1454
01:08:06,970 --> 01:08:07,910
Proverbs 13 verse 3.

1455
01:08:09,690 --> 01:08:12,250
Keep thy tongue from evil.

1456
01:08:13,390 --> 01:08:14,690
Psalm 34 verse 13.

1457
01:08:15,410 --> 01:08:16,170
Set a watch.

1458
01:08:17,130 --> 01:08:18,670
O Lord before my mouth.

1459
01:08:20,090 --> 01:08:22,189
Keep the jaws of my lips.

1460
01:08:23,649 --> 01:08:24,790
Psalm 141 verse 3.

1461
01:08:25,710 --> 01:08:27,689
If you don't pray that every day.

1462
01:08:27,750 --> 01:08:28,990
I doubt that you are right with God.

1463
01:08:29,510 --> 01:08:31,130
Because you know that this is the one

1464
01:08:31,130 --> 01:08:31,609
thing that.

1465
01:08:32,569 --> 01:08:33,010
Enters.

1466
01:08:33,790 --> 01:08:36,010
The capacity for the devil to reach every

1467
01:08:36,010 --> 01:08:36,890
sense of your life.

1468
01:08:39,990 --> 01:08:41,069
Circumstance by circumstance.

1469
01:08:41,290 --> 01:08:42,310
If you are not crying this from your

1470
01:08:42,310 --> 01:08:42,950
soul to God.

1471
01:08:43,670 --> 01:08:44,970
I am worried about you right now.

1472
01:08:46,250 --> 01:08:47,029
Set a watch.

1473
01:08:47,130 --> 01:08:48,109
O Lord.

1474
01:08:48,529 --> 01:08:49,569
Before my mouth.

1475
01:08:49,770 --> 01:08:51,810
Right now God while my child does this.

1476
01:08:52,189 --> 01:08:53,609
Let me not compromise.

1477
01:08:53,870 --> 01:08:56,109
Let me not be un-Christ like.

1478
01:09:00,090 --> 01:09:01,290
In this exam though.

1479
01:09:01,410 --> 01:09:02,189
Making me face.

1480
01:09:03,390 --> 01:09:04,430
Or it wouldn't have happened.

1481
01:09:06,090 --> 01:09:07,290
Set a watch O Lord.

1482
01:09:07,430 --> 01:09:08,410
Before my mouth.

1483
01:09:09,430 --> 01:09:12,109
Keep the jaws of my lips.

1484
01:09:12,470 --> 01:09:13,729
Psalm 141 verse 3.

1485
01:09:16,550 --> 01:09:17,290
When a Christian.

1486
01:09:18,510 --> 01:09:19,290
When a Christian.

1487
01:09:20,210 --> 01:09:21,649
Continually fails God.

1488
01:09:22,050 --> 01:09:23,890
Continually fails God.

1489
01:09:24,090 --> 01:09:25,950
Firstly with his eyes.

1490
01:09:26,590 --> 01:09:27,950
With his eyes.

1491
01:09:28,330 --> 01:09:29,990
Secondly with his thoughts.

1492
01:09:30,930 --> 01:09:31,990
With his thoughts.

1493
01:09:32,170 --> 01:09:33,670
Thirdly with his lips.

1494
01:09:34,550 --> 01:09:35,630
With his lips.

1495
01:09:36,609 --> 01:09:37,370
With his lips.

1496
01:09:38,069 --> 01:09:38,649
And finally.

1497
01:09:39,430 --> 01:09:40,109
Finally.

1498
01:09:41,109 --> 01:09:41,990
When a Christian.

1499
01:09:44,189 --> 01:09:44,609
Continually.

1500
01:09:45,029 --> 01:09:46,729
Continually fails God.

1501
01:09:55,110 --> 01:09:55,510
The fruit.

1502
01:09:56,350 --> 01:09:57,110
Of the spirit.

1503
01:09:57,270 --> 01:09:57,970
Capital S.

1504
01:09:58,990 --> 01:09:59,810
Is.

1505
01:10:01,490 --> 01:10:02,310
Temperance.

1506
01:10:03,230 --> 01:10:04,830
That is self-control.

1507
01:10:05,930 --> 01:10:07,110
Galatians 5 verse 23.

1508
01:10:07,990 --> 01:10:09,090
The evidence.

1509
01:10:09,370 --> 01:10:10,930
That the Holy Spirit is in the life.

1510
01:10:11,490 --> 01:10:12,510
Is self-control.

1511
01:10:15,710 --> 01:10:16,930
Self-control.

1512
01:10:16,930 --> 01:10:17,850
He that is slow.

1513
01:10:25,030 --> 01:10:26,450
He that is slow.

1514
01:10:27,630 --> 01:10:28,190
To anger.

1515
01:10:28,670 --> 01:10:29,990
He that is slow.

1516
01:10:30,230 --> 01:10:30,670
To anger.

1517
01:10:31,030 --> 01:10:31,930
Is better than the mighty.

1518
01:10:32,430 --> 01:10:34,170
And he that rules his spirit.

1519
01:10:35,630 --> 01:10:37,310
And he that taketh the city.

1520
01:10:38,390 --> 01:10:39,350
Proverbs 16 verse 32.

1521
01:10:40,370 --> 01:10:41,790
He that is slow.

1522
01:10:41,950 --> 01:10:42,490
To anger.

1523
01:10:43,030 --> 01:10:44,210
Is better than the mighty.

1524
01:10:45,130 --> 01:10:47,130
And he that rules his spirit.

1525
01:10:48,370 --> 01:10:50,390
Is not pretempered.

1526
01:10:50,390 --> 01:10:51,750
Easily provoked.

1527
01:10:53,110 --> 01:10:54,890
Than he that taketh the city.

1528
01:10:55,410 --> 01:10:55,790
16 verse 32.

1529
01:10:57,190 --> 01:10:58,710
He that is slow.

1530
01:10:59,510 --> 01:11:00,630
To wrath.

1531
01:11:02,070 --> 01:11:03,210
Slow to wrath.

1532
01:11:03,290 --> 01:11:04,490
Is of great understanding.

1533
01:11:05,290 --> 01:11:05,810
God says.

1534
01:11:07,170 --> 01:11:07,590
But.

1535
01:11:08,990 --> 01:11:10,890
He that is hasty of spirit.

1536
01:11:11,570 --> 01:11:12,050
Pretempered.

1537
01:11:12,230 --> 01:11:12,690
So tempered.

1538
01:11:12,970 --> 01:11:13,750
Exalts the folly.

1539
01:11:14,110 --> 01:11:14,790
Destroys everything.

1540
01:11:21,730 --> 01:11:23,210
Proverbs 14 verse 29.

1541
01:11:28,300 --> 01:11:30,720
Be not hasty in thy spirit.

1542
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:31,580
To be angry.

1543
01:11:33,060 --> 01:11:34,100
For anger.

1544
01:11:34,340 --> 01:11:36,200
Rests in the bosom of fools.

1545
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:36,800
God says.

1546
01:11:37,180 --> 01:11:38,320
Ecclesiastes 7 verse 9.

1547
01:11:39,480 --> 01:11:41,040
Be not hasty in thy spirit.

1548
01:11:41,140 --> 01:11:41,660
To be angry.

1549
01:11:41,940 --> 01:11:42,720
For anger.

1550
01:11:43,220 --> 01:11:44,920
Rests in the bosom of fools.

1551
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:45,960
God says.

1552
01:11:48,460 --> 01:11:49,580
Be angry.

1553
01:11:49,980 --> 01:11:51,020
And sin not.

1554
01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:53,500
Let not the sun go down.

1555
01:11:53,660 --> 01:11:54,280
Upon thy wrath.

1556
01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:55,440
Now be careful.

1557
01:11:55,500 --> 01:11:56,480
You're not like a Jehovah Witness.

1558
01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:00,500
They take everything out of their context.

1559
01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:03,120
They're so scared you'll read the second half

1560
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:04,040
of the verse they caught in.

1561
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:04,760
That they go fast.

1562
01:12:04,900 --> 01:12:06,240
To get past before you can look.

1563
01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:08,480
Because it cancels out what they're saying.

1564
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:10,500
Just look at the context of anything they're

1565
01:12:10,500 --> 01:12:10,740
saying.

1566
01:12:11,220 --> 01:12:11,860
In its context.

1567
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:12,520
In the light of all scripture.

1568
01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:13,760
But especially in its context.

1569
01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:14,820
You'll find that they lie.

1570
01:12:15,380 --> 01:12:15,960
To themselves.

1571
01:12:16,740 --> 01:12:17,900
God gives them over to believe a lie.

1572
01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:19,060
Because they received not the love of the

1573
01:12:19,060 --> 01:12:19,200
truth.

1574
01:12:19,540 --> 01:12:20,000
They knew.

1575
01:12:20,140 --> 01:12:20,540
They knew.

1576
01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:21,900
Don't tell me they won't reject.

1577
01:12:25,650 --> 01:12:26,850
You can't be like them.

1578
01:12:28,610 --> 01:12:29,650
When God says.

1579
01:12:29,890 --> 01:12:30,770
Be ye angry.

1580
01:12:31,130 --> 01:12:32,270
And sin not.

1581
01:12:32,350 --> 01:12:33,430
It's not a question mark.

1582
01:12:34,290 --> 01:12:35,250
That means you can never be angry.

1583
01:12:35,510 --> 01:12:37,050
There's such a thing as righteous indignation.

1584
01:12:37,930 --> 01:12:38,850
Beginning in the home.

1585
01:12:39,730 --> 01:12:40,650
And it's Christ like.

1586
01:12:46,020 --> 01:12:46,980
Be angry.

1587
01:12:47,980 --> 01:12:48,520
And sin not.

1588
01:12:48,620 --> 01:12:49,840
Let not the sun go down.

1589
01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:50,500
Upon your wrath.

1590
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:52,360
Don't allow other people's failures.

1591
01:12:52,500 --> 01:12:53,620
To eventually cause you.

1592
01:12:54,900 --> 01:12:56,360
To fail more than them.

1593
01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:57,420
In God's eyes.

1594
01:12:57,600 --> 01:12:58,240
And man does.

1595
01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:03,100
The discretion of a man.

1596
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:05,000
Deferreth his anger.

1597
01:13:05,500 --> 01:13:07,100
And it is his glory.

1598
01:13:07,260 --> 01:13:08,780
To pass over a transgression.

1599
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:10,180
The discretion.

1600
01:13:10,480 --> 01:13:10,720
Oh.

1601
01:13:10,900 --> 01:13:11,300
That's something.

1602
01:13:11,740 --> 01:13:13,060
Once it's seen in your discretion.

1603
01:13:13,220 --> 01:13:13,760
You've got something.

1604
01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:15,240
Just read the Old Testament.

1605
01:13:15,380 --> 01:13:17,040
To see what worth discretion is.

1606
01:13:17,180 --> 01:13:18,680
God gives man discretion.

1607
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:20,580
The discretion of a man.

1608
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:21,840
Deferreth his anger.

1609
01:13:22,180 --> 01:13:23,900
And it is his glory.

1610
01:13:24,340 --> 01:13:26,140
To pass over a transgression.

1611
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:27,840
Proverbs 19 verse 11.

1612
01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:29,740
It's his glory.

1613
01:13:29,900 --> 01:13:30,480
To put love.

1614
01:13:30,480 --> 01:13:32,160
Covereth a multitude of sins.

1615
01:13:34,780 --> 01:13:36,620
Love is not easily provoked.

1616
01:13:37,580 --> 01:13:38,680
You know the word there's agape.

1617
01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:40,360
It's not human love.

1618
01:13:40,940 --> 01:13:42,560
God isn't asking you to do it in

1619
01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:43,380
a human capacity.

1620
01:13:43,580 --> 01:13:44,560
He's asking you to yield.

1621
01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:46,120
And it's the degree that you yield to

1622
01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:46,500
God.

1623
01:13:46,780 --> 01:13:48,500
And absolutely surrender to that degree.

1624
01:13:48,580 --> 01:13:49,400
You're filled with the Holy Spirit.

1625
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:50,500
Because being filled with the Holy Spirit.

1626
01:13:50,780 --> 01:13:51,940
Means nothing more and nothing less.

1627
01:13:52,020 --> 01:13:53,400
Than being controlled by the Holy Spirit.

1628
01:13:53,440 --> 01:13:54,740
And he cannot control any life.

1629
01:13:56,160 --> 01:13:58,020
Unless they're totally absolutely surrendered.

1630
01:13:58,120 --> 01:13:58,860
And at that point.

1631
01:13:58,940 --> 01:13:59,300
The fruit.

1632
01:13:59,300 --> 01:14:00,520
The evidence that the Holy Spirit.

1633
01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:01,460
Is in control of a life.

1634
01:14:01,620 --> 01:14:02,380
Is the fruit of the Spirit.

1635
01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:03,000
Love.

1636
01:14:03,500 --> 01:14:04,480
Suffereth long in his kind.

1637
01:14:04,580 --> 01:14:05,860
You can't do it in a human capacity.

1638
01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:08,340
It has to be to the degree.

1639
01:14:08,500 --> 01:14:09,540
You are yielded to God.

1640
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:11,240
Absolutely surrendered to God.

1641
01:14:11,440 --> 01:14:12,680
You are filled with the Holy Spirit.

1642
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:12,920
Sir.

1643
01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:14,340
Not by gifts.

1644
01:14:15,460 --> 01:14:16,600
1 Corinthians 13.

1645
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:17,340
Cut out.

1646
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:19,040
Throw away.

1647
01:14:19,300 --> 01:14:19,840
Tremble upon.

1648
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:21,240
But don't tell me it's gifts.

1649
01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:23,240
You are filled with the Holy Spirit.

1650
01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:25,280
To the degree.

1651
01:14:25,480 --> 01:14:26,500
That the fruit of the Spirit.

1652
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:27,600
Is the vital evidence.

1653
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,000
And then you can think about gifts.

1654
01:14:29,260 --> 01:14:29,420
Paul says.

1655
01:14:29,560 --> 01:14:30,740
I show you a more excellent way.

1656
01:14:33,360 --> 01:14:34,340
Though I speak with the tongues of men

1657
01:14:34,340 --> 01:14:34,780
and angels.

1658
01:14:34,900 --> 01:14:35,820
And have not love.

1659
01:14:36,300 --> 01:14:37,220
The fruit of the Spirit.

1660
01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:38,580
I am becomes a sign in God.

1661
01:14:38,660 --> 01:14:39,740
Though I have the gift of prophecy.

1662
01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:41,460
And understand almost with all knowledge.

1663
01:14:41,900 --> 01:14:42,300
Oh.

1664
01:14:42,580 --> 01:14:43,240
I'm nothing.

1665
01:14:43,380 --> 01:14:43,880
I've got nothing.

1666
01:14:43,940 --> 01:14:44,540
I'm worth nothing.

1667
01:14:44,740 --> 01:14:46,040
In God's eyes and man's eyes.

1668
01:14:46,760 --> 01:14:47,960
It's not gifts.

1669
01:14:48,780 --> 01:14:49,540
Deal with it.

1670
01:14:50,980 --> 01:14:52,440
Absolute surrendered to God.

1671
01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:53,840
The evidence.

1672
01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:54,980
That you are filled.

1673
01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:56,020
With the Holy Spirit.

1674
01:14:56,300 --> 01:14:56,700
Controlled.

1675
01:14:56,700 --> 01:14:58,520
Because of your yielding everything.

1676
01:14:59,080 --> 01:14:59,620
On the altar.

1677
01:15:00,940 --> 01:15:02,560
Is the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

1678
01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:05,100
It is.

1679
01:15:05,420 --> 01:15:06,020
Love.

1680
01:15:06,340 --> 01:15:07,760
It's God's agape love.

1681
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:08,480
That is.

1682
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:09,940
Not easily provoked.

1683
01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:15,740
You're just not easily provoked.

1684
01:15:15,900 --> 01:15:16,800
You don't get upset.

1685
01:15:17,780 --> 01:15:18,380
With people.

1686
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:21,220
There is righteousness in the nation.

1687
01:15:21,300 --> 01:15:22,800
But it doesn't go on.

1688
01:15:23,100 --> 01:15:25,200
In a way that you eventually see.

1689
01:15:26,700 --> 01:15:27,860
Worse than that.

1690
01:15:28,820 --> 01:15:29,540
For harboring.

1691
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:31,020
Unforgetting hearts.

1692
01:15:31,620 --> 01:15:32,500
At their tables.

1693
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:34,000
Beginning in the home.

1694
01:15:40,190 --> 01:15:41,490
An angry man.

1695
01:15:44,630 --> 01:15:45,550
Stirreth.

1696
01:15:45,830 --> 01:15:46,790
Up strife.

1697
01:15:48,570 --> 01:15:50,070
An angry man.

1698
01:15:50,210 --> 01:15:50,850
Oh you get the.

1699
01:15:52,990 --> 01:15:53,910
Stirreth.

1700
01:15:54,530 --> 01:15:55,250
Up strife.

1701
01:15:55,790 --> 01:15:57,470
And a furious man.

1702
01:15:58,370 --> 01:15:59,990
Aboundeth in transgression.

1703
01:15:59,990 --> 01:16:00,470
God says.

1704
01:16:00,870 --> 01:16:02,270
Make no friendship.

1705
01:16:02,570 --> 01:16:04,030
With an angry man.

1706
01:16:04,910 --> 01:16:06,330
And with a furious man.

1707
01:16:06,430 --> 01:16:07,110
Thou shalt not go.

1708
01:16:07,210 --> 01:16:08,030
Lest thou learn his ways.

1709
01:16:08,070 --> 01:16:09,190
And get a snare to thy soul.

1710
01:16:10,030 --> 01:16:11,410
Lest you become influenced by him.

1711
01:16:11,470 --> 01:16:12,910
And land up abounding in transgression.

1712
01:16:13,010 --> 01:16:13,450
Like he is.

1713
01:16:13,830 --> 01:16:14,710
In God and man's sight.

1714
01:16:20,490 --> 01:16:21,450
When a Christian.

1715
01:16:22,490 --> 01:16:24,010
Continually fears God.

1716
01:16:24,690 --> 01:16:26,050
Firstly through his eyes.

1717
01:16:26,730 --> 01:16:27,170
Secondly.

1718
01:16:27,570 --> 01:16:28,470
Through his thoughts.

1719
01:16:29,590 --> 01:16:30,030
Thirdly.

1720
01:16:30,030 --> 01:16:30,770
With his lips.

1721
01:16:32,430 --> 01:16:33,670
And fourthly.

1722
01:16:33,910 --> 01:16:34,950
With his reactions.

1723
01:16:43,230 --> 01:16:44,730
The greatest.

1724
01:16:45,010 --> 01:16:46,390
Single tragedy.

1725
01:16:46,690 --> 01:16:48,090
This world faces today.

1726
01:16:49,190 --> 01:16:50,690
The greatest.

1727
01:16:51,230 --> 01:16:52,410
Single tragedy.

1728
01:16:52,650 --> 01:16:54,450
This world faces today.

1729
01:16:54,670 --> 01:16:56,590
Is compromising Christianity.

1730
01:16:57,370 --> 01:16:58,290
Don't doubt it.

1731
01:16:59,830 --> 01:17:01,290
Don't doubt it.

1732
01:17:01,890 --> 01:17:04,070
The greatest single tragedy.

1733
01:17:04,210 --> 01:17:05,990
This world faces today.

1734
01:17:05,990 --> 01:17:07,330
Is compromising Christianity.

1735
01:17:07,970 --> 01:17:09,090
Beginning in the home.

1736
01:17:10,030 --> 01:17:12,690
To every soul you approach daily.

1737
01:17:14,550 --> 01:17:16,070
Compromising Christianity.

1738
01:17:16,510 --> 01:17:18,350
Undermines the effect of the gospel.

1739
01:17:19,250 --> 01:17:20,770
I'm going to repeat that slow.

1740
01:17:22,190 --> 01:17:23,850
Beginning in the home.

1741
01:17:24,350 --> 01:17:26,810
To every soul you approach daily.

1742
01:17:27,390 --> 01:17:28,770
Compromising Christianity.

1743
01:17:28,990 --> 01:17:30,790
Undermines the effect of the gospel.

1744
01:17:32,030 --> 01:17:34,030
And the honor of Christ's name in this

1745
01:17:34,030 --> 01:17:34,230
world.

1746
01:17:36,610 --> 01:17:43,440
You want revival.

1747
01:17:44,100 --> 01:17:45,660
Don't preach about it.

1748
01:17:46,380 --> 01:17:47,540
If you're guilty.

1749
01:17:50,980 --> 01:17:53,040
Deal with it.

1750
01:17:59,390 --> 01:18:01,830
Until then you're the only reason God caught.

1751
01:18:09,190 --> 01:18:10,310
The heart.

1752
01:18:12,050 --> 01:18:13,410
Is deceitful.

1753
01:18:14,410 --> 01:18:15,430
Above all things.

1754
01:18:16,530 --> 01:18:17,250
Above all things.

1755
01:18:17,370 --> 01:18:18,830
And desperately wicked.

1756
01:18:19,930 --> 01:18:20,910
Who can know it?

1757
01:18:21,750 --> 01:18:22,530
Who can know it?

1758
01:18:22,530 --> 01:18:23,750
I the Lord.

1759
01:18:23,950 --> 01:18:25,150
Search the heart.

1760
01:18:27,130 --> 01:18:28,770
I try the veins.

1761
01:18:35,190 --> 01:18:36,510
Search me oh God.

1762
01:18:38,330 --> 01:18:39,690
And know my heart.

1763
01:18:41,010 --> 01:18:41,730
Try me.

1764
01:18:43,470 --> 01:18:44,510
For out of the heart.

1765
01:18:44,990 --> 01:18:45,890
Out of the heart.

1766
01:18:46,150 --> 01:18:48,070
Out of the heart proceeds.

1767
01:18:48,690 --> 01:18:49,830
Evil thoughts.

1768
01:18:51,190 --> 01:18:51,770
Murders.

1769
01:18:54,170 --> 01:18:54,970
Adulteries.

1770
01:18:56,410 --> 01:18:57,230
Fornication.

1771
01:18:57,450 --> 01:18:58,250
Sexual vice.

1772
01:19:00,150 --> 01:19:00,590
Thefts.

1773
01:19:01,710 --> 01:19:02,630
False witness.

1774
01:19:03,430 --> 01:19:04,050
Blasphemy.

1775
01:19:04,930 --> 01:19:08,070
These are the things which defile a man.

1776
01:19:08,370 --> 01:19:08,970
God says.

1777
01:19:09,970 --> 01:19:11,590
Matthew 15.

1778
01:19:13,050 --> 01:19:15,870
Create in me a clean heart oh God.

1779
01:19:17,970 --> 01:19:20,610
And renew a right spirit within me.

1780
01:19:21,830 --> 01:19:22,810
A steadfast.

1781
01:19:23,190 --> 01:19:23,870
Consistent.

1782
01:19:25,930 --> 01:19:28,290
Grace to live the standard of this book.

1783
01:19:29,490 --> 01:19:31,530
For I will from this night cease from

1784
01:19:31,530 --> 01:19:32,790
a life of compromise.

1785
01:19:34,090 --> 01:19:34,870
In Christianity.

1786
01:19:35,510 --> 01:19:36,690
By thy grace God.

1787
01:19:37,390 --> 01:19:38,710
I want to ask you all.

1788
01:19:38,810 --> 01:19:40,010
I don't care if you're a preacher.

1789
01:19:40,150 --> 01:19:41,510
I don't care if you have a Bible

1790
01:19:41,510 --> 01:19:42,250
that looks worn.

1791
01:19:43,510 --> 01:19:44,910
I want to ask every one of you

1792
01:19:44,910 --> 01:19:45,890
that's got one eye open.

1793
01:19:46,230 --> 01:19:47,890
Respect to God left.

1794
01:19:48,390 --> 01:19:49,390
And not to religion.

1795
01:19:49,570 --> 01:19:51,070
Or the religious people who watch you.

1796
01:19:51,970 --> 01:19:53,490
I want those of you who have to

1797
01:19:53,490 --> 01:19:53,850
do with God.

1798
01:19:53,850 --> 01:19:54,230
I want those of you who are denied

1799
01:19:54,230 --> 01:19:55,390
in the way of Christ.

1800
01:19:57,270 --> 01:19:58,710
Who desperately.

1801
01:19:59,150 --> 01:19:59,890
Desperately.

1802
01:20:00,310 --> 01:20:01,050
Desperately.

1803
01:20:01,190 --> 01:20:01,750
Not shallow.

1804
01:20:02,710 --> 01:20:03,450
Desperately.

1805
01:20:05,110 --> 01:20:06,650
Require from God.

1806
01:20:08,090 --> 01:20:09,430
Create in me.

1807
01:20:10,450 --> 01:20:12,430
A clean heart oh God.

1808
01:20:12,870 --> 01:20:14,070
By the blood of Christ.

1809
01:20:16,890 --> 01:20:20,050
Renew a right spirit within me.

1810
01:20:20,450 --> 01:20:21,020
A consistent.

1811
01:20:22,210 --> 01:20:22,950
Steadfast.

1812
01:20:22,950 --> 01:20:24,230
Grace to live.

1813
01:20:24,870 --> 01:20:26,330
The standard of this book.

1814
01:20:27,210 --> 01:20:28,570
Which thou would not tell a man to

1815
01:20:28,570 --> 01:20:29,410
live it he can't.

1816
01:20:29,630 --> 01:20:30,850
Thou art not unholy.

1817
01:20:31,050 --> 01:20:32,250
Thou art hell.

1818
01:20:32,450 --> 01:20:33,430
Thou art integrity.

1819
01:20:34,250 --> 01:20:35,790
To command a man to do something he

1820
01:20:35,790 --> 01:20:36,610
can't is impossible.

1821
01:20:36,850 --> 01:20:37,770
Not from this God's hand.

1822
01:20:38,630 --> 01:20:40,010
And therefore I have to live it.

1823
01:20:43,340 --> 01:20:45,240
Create in me a clean heart oh God.

1824
01:20:45,440 --> 01:20:46,980
Renew a right spirit within me.

1825
01:20:47,860 --> 01:20:49,180
I absolutely surrender.

1826
01:20:50,580 --> 01:20:52,280
I yield my own in the oath of

1827
01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:52,640
God.

1828
01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:54,000
I don't want gifts.

1829
01:20:57,660 --> 01:20:59,780
Because gifts without the fruit are not of

1830
01:20:59,780 --> 01:21:00,060
God.

1831
01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:01,180
They're of the devil.

1832
01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:04,540
According to 1 Corinthians 13.

1833
01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:05,920
They're not of God.

1834
01:21:08,720 --> 01:21:10,240
I don't want gifts.

1835
01:21:10,360 --> 01:21:12,140
I want the fruit of the spirit to

1836
01:21:12,140 --> 01:21:12,840
be seen in my life.

1837
01:21:12,900 --> 01:21:14,300
No matter how trying the circumstances.

1838
01:21:15,220 --> 01:21:16,520
Spontaneously reacting cleanly.

1839
01:21:16,580 --> 01:21:18,500
Because God is living out his life in

1840
01:21:18,500 --> 01:21:18,600
me.

1841
01:21:18,980 --> 01:21:20,860
Being conformed back into the image that was

1842
01:21:20,860 --> 01:21:21,540
lost at the fall.

1843
01:21:22,320 --> 01:21:23,960
The image of Jesus Christ God's son.

1844
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:24,060
No.

1845
01:21:24,380 --> 01:21:26,380
Sir is the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

1846
01:21:26,620 --> 01:21:28,380
Christ is the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

1847
01:21:29,020 --> 01:21:30,200
Holiness is Christ.

1848
01:21:31,620 --> 01:21:32,420
Christ-likeness.

1849
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:33,380
Anything more is heresy.

1850
01:21:34,860 --> 01:21:35,820
Don't believe it's this.

1851
01:21:36,340 --> 01:21:37,820
You can just like a nun be a

1852
01:21:37,820 --> 01:21:38,020
devil.

1853
01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:39,520
And send your children to hell.

1854
01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:43,220
Just don't put the cart before the horse,

1855
01:21:43,420 --> 01:21:43,520
sir.

1856
01:21:43,980 --> 01:21:45,220
Those things have their place.

1857
01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:46,180
Thank God for modesty.

1858
01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:48,340
If it doesn't come strictly up to you

1859
01:21:48,340 --> 01:21:49,520
like with God there's something wrong with you.

1860
01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:50,640
But be careful.

1861
01:21:52,940 --> 01:21:53,480
The fruit.

1862
01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:55,200
Christ-likeness.

1863
01:21:55,440 --> 01:21:56,480
In your reactions.

1864
01:21:56,920 --> 01:21:58,100
Christ living out his life.

1865
01:21:58,560 --> 01:21:59,620
Christ being formed.

1866
01:22:00,140 --> 01:22:01,640
This is what God predestined.

1867
01:22:01,940 --> 01:22:03,140
Not for one to be taken to heaven

1868
01:22:03,140 --> 01:22:04,020
and one to be taken to hell.

1869
01:22:04,280 --> 01:22:04,460
No.

1870
01:22:05,560 --> 01:22:08,000
Before the foundation that somehow that what was

1871
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:09,460
in me before the foundation that it would

1872
01:22:09,460 --> 01:22:09,900
be lost.

1873
01:22:10,060 --> 01:22:12,380
That image of God would be brought back.

1874
01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:13,740
Christ-likeness.

1875
01:22:13,740 --> 01:22:15,720
That man would be conformed back into the

1876
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:17,480
image of his son by the Holy Ghost.

1877
01:22:17,940 --> 01:22:19,500
Whose whole work is to bring us back

1878
01:22:19,500 --> 01:22:20,840
into the image of Christ.

1879
01:22:22,360 --> 01:22:24,020
And he will the moment you yield it

1880
01:22:24,020 --> 01:22:24,300
to him.

1881
01:22:25,020 --> 01:22:25,380
Totally.

1882
01:22:26,140 --> 01:22:26,940
Absolute surrender.

1883
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:29,140
And you cry to God to create in

1884
01:22:29,140 --> 01:22:30,720
you a clean heart and to renew a

1885
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:33,280
right, a steadfast consistency to this book and

1886
01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:33,880
the standard in it.

1887
01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:36,480
You are yielding everything to God because you

1888
01:22:36,480 --> 01:22:37,560
can't live it in your own strength.

1889
01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:39,220
Only God can live this in you.

1890
01:22:39,900 --> 01:22:41,900
But you can only take it when you

1891
01:22:41,900 --> 01:22:43,100
yield and give up the fight.

1892
01:22:44,060 --> 01:22:44,940
Like Peniel.

1893
01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:52,700
And not let God go till he come

1894
01:22:52,700 --> 01:22:54,300
and reign righteousness upon you.

1895
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,960
And he will when you yield everything to

1896
01:22:57,960 --> 01:22:58,120
him.

1897
01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:01,240
And absolutely surrender, child.

1898
01:23:05,410 --> 01:23:08,190
I want everyone who desperately needs to ask

1899
01:23:08,190 --> 01:23:10,970
God to create in them a clean heart

1900
01:23:10,970 --> 01:23:12,190
and destiny in this book.

1901
01:23:14,620 --> 01:23:16,640
To come and reign righteousness upon them.

1902
01:23:18,780 --> 01:23:20,380
Who know it's time to seek the Lord

1903
01:23:20,380 --> 01:23:23,500
tonight till he come and be everyone that

1904
01:23:23,500 --> 01:23:27,460
desperately needs to ask God from their soul

1905
01:23:27,460 --> 01:23:28,200
and inner being.

1906
01:23:30,140 --> 01:23:31,540
I want you to stand.

1907
01:23:32,300 --> 01:23:34,980
Those who are desperately needing this.

1908
01:23:35,280 --> 01:23:36,060
This will cost you.

1909
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:38,320
But it'll cost you a billion times more.

1910
01:23:38,840 --> 01:23:39,060
Come.

1911
01:23:39,440 --> 01:23:40,020
Come forward.

1912
01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:42,240
We're gonna make something holy here.

1913
01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:44,440
Come forward and don't start speaking.

1914
01:23:45,460 --> 01:23:47,260
Speak in your heart so that the other

1915
01:23:47,260 --> 01:23:48,560
person doesn't have to listen to you.

1916
01:23:50,360 --> 01:23:51,960
They can speak to God themselves.

1917
01:23:56,060 --> 01:23:58,260
If you're a lady, if you're not well,

1918
01:23:58,400 --> 01:23:58,940
don't kneel.

1919
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:01,300
It's not the outward kneeling that matters.

1920
01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:04,360
It's the inner heart.

1921
01:24:05,160 --> 01:24:07,040
To this man when I look, even to

1922
01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:08,940
him that's of a broken spirit, a contrite

1923
01:24:08,940 --> 01:24:13,160
heart, if you're in confession, abhorring what you've

1924
01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:15,920
done to God's name, to your children, to

1925
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:27,250
your church, to souls, all

1926
01:24:27,250 --> 01:24:28,710
you need to do is come and bow

1927
01:24:28,710 --> 01:24:32,610
your hearts, not necessarily your body.

1928
01:24:33,690 --> 01:24:35,450
Those that are sitting, you have the right

1929
01:24:35,450 --> 01:24:37,210
to pray for these people ahead of you.

1930
01:24:37,790 --> 01:24:41,030
Please pray in your hearts that God will

1931
01:24:41,030 --> 01:24:42,090
never let them recover.

1932
01:24:42,790 --> 01:24:44,170
And if two or three of you agree,

1933
01:24:44,270 --> 01:24:45,770
touching anything that's the will of God, and

1934
01:24:45,770 --> 01:24:46,990
don't tell me you don't know that's God's

1935
01:24:46,990 --> 01:24:48,010
will, it will be done.

1936
01:24:48,510 --> 01:24:50,130
So you all have the right to pray

1937
01:24:50,130 --> 01:24:53,150
for them, to become like you are, obviously.

1938
01:24:56,550 --> 01:24:58,630
Everyone, please forgive me.

1939
01:24:58,870 --> 01:24:59,610
Just remember this.

1940
01:24:59,910 --> 01:25:02,150
God does not look at the words that

1941
01:25:02,150 --> 01:25:03,270
proceed out of the mouth.

1942
01:25:05,310 --> 01:25:07,370
God does not look at the words that

1943
01:25:07,370 --> 01:25:08,250
proceed out of the mouth.

1944
01:25:08,330 --> 01:25:10,670
He's looking at the hearts, from whence they

1945
01:25:10,670 --> 01:25:10,870
come.

1946
01:25:11,030 --> 01:25:12,450
Now he's looking at your hearts.

1947
01:25:12,950 --> 01:25:14,030
And I'm going to lead you in a

1948
01:25:14,030 --> 01:25:14,970
prayer, but that's not sin.

1949
01:25:16,090 --> 01:25:16,990
That's not sin.

1950
01:25:26,460 --> 01:25:28,940
As best as you can, let God know

1951
01:25:28,940 --> 01:25:29,900
this is from your heart.

1952
01:25:30,740 --> 01:25:32,800
In your prayer, though another man's leading you.

1953
01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:34,800
Because I don't want to lead you just

1954
01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:36,660
to yourselves, and I haven't got counselors here

1955
01:25:36,660 --> 01:25:37,620
that can take each one of you.

1956
01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:39,120
So I'm going to lead you as best

1957
01:25:39,120 --> 01:25:39,620
I know.

1958
01:25:41,340 --> 01:25:42,820
But you don't go in circles and walk

1959
01:25:42,820 --> 01:25:45,060
out of here the same, just confused of

1960
01:25:45,060 --> 01:25:45,780
how to deal with it.

1961
01:25:46,460 --> 01:25:48,320
So everyone, will you pray aloud with me,

1962
01:25:48,480 --> 01:25:49,980
but only to God, not for the next

1963
01:25:49,980 --> 01:25:50,800
man to hear you, please.

1964
01:25:51,900 --> 01:25:53,940
Don't make men look at you, saying, look

1965
01:25:53,940 --> 01:25:54,220
at me.

1966
01:25:58,220 --> 01:25:59,540
Be careful what you do.

1967
01:25:59,980 --> 01:26:01,660
In any moment, and it's it.

1968
01:26:02,260 --> 01:26:03,220
But say, look at me.

1969
01:26:04,460 --> 01:26:06,380
Even when you're praying or seeking God.

1970
01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:09,820
It's God alone that matters.

1971
01:26:10,060 --> 01:26:11,600
So speak in a way you know and

1972
01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:12,200
he knows.

1973
01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:14,580
And the devil knows it's only God that

1974
01:26:14,580 --> 01:26:15,160
matters here.

1975
01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:16,280
The way you pray.

1976
01:26:18,610 --> 01:26:20,490
Will you all pray with me, please?

1977
01:26:20,630 --> 01:26:28,130
Please pray, oh my God, forgive me for

1978
01:26:28,130 --> 01:26:34,590
the sin of my life, the grief that

1979
01:26:34,590 --> 01:26:39,370
I have caused thee and so many who've

1980
01:26:39,370 --> 01:26:44,630
been near me and are conscious that I

1981
01:26:44,630 --> 01:26:46,450
am a compromising Christian.

1982
01:26:48,250 --> 01:26:55,190
Forgive me for every failure, every defiance of

1983
01:26:55,190 --> 01:26:58,350
the standard of this book in my marriage

1984
01:26:58,350 --> 01:26:59,990
toward my enemy.

1985
01:27:02,270 --> 01:27:08,750
In circumstance upon circumstance, forgive me for defying

1986
01:27:08,750 --> 01:27:14,190
thee deliberately, calculatedly, knowingly, determinedly.

1987
01:27:15,050 --> 01:27:17,050
Forgive me for the shame of my profession

1988
01:27:17,050 --> 01:27:19,610
and the grief I have been to God

1989
01:27:20,570 --> 01:27:21,690
and man.

1990
01:27:23,530 --> 01:27:25,150
Forgive me for every sin.

1991
01:27:28,350 --> 01:27:32,370
Things I've forgotten because I'm so base.

1992
01:27:33,650 --> 01:27:36,390
I overlooked to confess.

1993
01:27:37,670 --> 01:27:41,310
Forgive me that the blood of Jesus Christ,

1994
01:27:42,430 --> 01:27:46,630
God's Son, that cleanses us from all sin,

1995
01:27:48,370 --> 01:27:49,890
wash away all my sin.

1996
01:27:51,390 --> 01:27:55,890
In mercy, make me clean, make me pure

1997
01:27:55,890 --> 01:27:57,450
in thine eyes.

1998
01:27:58,350 --> 01:28:01,810
Let me have a fresh start as thy

1999
01:28:01,810 --> 01:28:05,670
child because of the blood of Jesus Christ.

2000
01:28:09,830 --> 01:28:11,630
Let the blood go deeper.

2001
01:28:13,570 --> 01:28:17,470
Wash me through and through and through and

2002
01:28:17,470 --> 01:28:19,690
through and through and through.

2003
01:28:21,250 --> 01:28:26,730
Create in me a clean heart, O God.

2004
01:28:27,750 --> 01:28:34,510
Renew the right spirit within me, a steadfast,

2005
01:28:35,550 --> 01:28:39,890
consistent, walking in the standard of this book

2006
01:28:40,570 --> 01:28:42,050
by the grace of God.

2007
01:28:43,450 --> 01:28:45,510
I lay my life on the altar of

2008
01:28:45,510 --> 01:28:45,790
God.

2009
01:28:47,510 --> 01:28:48,960
I absolutely surrender.

2010
01:28:50,490 --> 01:28:54,310
I give up the fight on every issue

2011
01:28:55,290 --> 01:28:58,610
and I implore thee that thou will fill

2012
01:28:58,610 --> 01:29:01,330
me with the Holy Spirit.

2013
01:29:02,590 --> 01:29:08,450
By that I mean take control of this

2014
01:29:08,450 --> 01:29:11,130
vessel, total control.

2015
01:29:14,330 --> 01:29:19,670
Take my life and let it be consecrated

2016
01:29:20,630 --> 01:29:30,900
Lord to thee and let the evidence of

2017
01:29:30,900 --> 01:29:36,800
the sincerity of my prayer be seen from

2018
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:40,200
the next step I take, the next look

2019
01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:44,840
I look, the next thought I think, the

2020
01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:48,720
next word I utter, the next reaction I

2021
01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:49,140
react.

2022
01:29:50,220 --> 01:29:53,680
No matter how trying the circumstances, that I

2023
01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:58,140
will spontaneously have the victory of the Holy

2024
01:29:58,140 --> 01:30:01,900
Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit.

2025
01:30:02,840 --> 01:30:04,480
And I will reveal Christ.

2026
01:30:09,650 --> 01:30:13,110
Help me to know that I am not

2027
01:30:13,110 --> 01:30:17,710
sinlessly perfected by what I have done tonight,

2028
01:30:21,470 --> 01:30:25,810
but that I can live in victory in

2029
01:30:25,810 --> 01:30:26,750
the light I've been given.

2030
01:30:27,550 --> 01:30:31,410
And as I walk in the light that

2031
01:30:31,410 --> 01:30:35,050
God has given me, the blood of Jesus

2032
01:30:35,050 --> 01:30:42,790
Christ, God's Son continually cleanses me from sins

2033
01:30:42,790 --> 01:30:47,510
committed in ignorance which the Old Testament people

2034
01:30:47,510 --> 01:30:52,930
had to make sacrifice to God for by

2035
01:30:52,930 --> 01:30:53,710
shedding of blood.

2036
01:30:54,930 --> 01:30:59,130
And therefore Jesus shed his blood for sins

2037
01:30:59,130 --> 01:31:00,090
committed in ignorance.

2038
01:31:01,190 --> 01:31:03,850
But I know that the path of the

2039
01:31:03,850 --> 01:31:09,030
just is a shining light that's shining more

2040
01:31:09,030 --> 01:31:12,270
and more unto the perfect day.

2041
01:31:13,090 --> 01:31:15,190
Until the day thou dost take me home,

2042
01:31:16,090 --> 01:31:20,010
more light must come that I must continually

2043
01:31:20,010 --> 01:31:20,570
yield to.

2044
01:31:22,710 --> 01:31:26,670
But I can live by thy grace in

2045
01:31:26,670 --> 01:31:27,670
the light I've been given.

2046
01:31:30,730 --> 01:31:35,370
If one isolated failure comes, on my road

2047
01:31:35,370 --> 01:31:38,430
to the celestial city with all the powers

2048
01:31:38,430 --> 01:31:41,490
of hell against me, help me not to

2049
01:31:41,490 --> 01:31:44,030
give up but to get up.

2050
01:31:44,530 --> 01:31:48,830
To confess that one sin in shame and

2051
01:31:48,830 --> 01:31:51,470
to look to the blood and not to

2052
01:31:51,470 --> 01:31:55,950
allow another sin to come in my disillusionment.

2053
01:31:56,670 --> 01:32:00,730
To get up and carefully seek God for

2054
01:32:00,730 --> 01:32:03,250
grace where there's a weak spot.

2055
01:32:04,850 --> 01:32:08,090
And I know that if I never neglect

2056
01:32:08,090 --> 01:32:12,030
the quiet time to soak myself in the

2057
01:32:12,030 --> 01:32:17,610
word of God and in prayer morning and

2058
01:32:17,610 --> 01:32:20,970
night if that is the greatest priority in

2059
01:32:20,970 --> 01:32:24,110
my life that I will never let anything

2060
01:32:24,110 --> 01:32:27,890
keep me from that nothing will divert me

2061
01:32:27,890 --> 01:32:31,550
from no matter what it costs morning and

2062
01:32:31,550 --> 01:32:36,030
night and beginning tonight till I die I

2063
01:32:36,030 --> 01:32:38,770
know that I will grow from this time

2064
01:32:38,770 --> 01:32:44,890
forth in consistency a consistent growth into more

2065
01:32:44,890 --> 01:32:47,770
and more Christ-likeness which is the only

2066
01:32:47,770 --> 01:32:48,790
desire of my heart.

2067
01:32:57,990 --> 01:33:03,410
Live out thy life within me O Jesus,

2068
01:33:03,670 --> 01:33:06,910
King of kings I have one deep burning

2069
01:33:06,910 --> 01:33:12,550
desire that I may be like Jesus for

2070
01:33:12,550 --> 01:33:16,810
apart from that I have nothing of any

2071
01:33:16,810 --> 01:33:22,470
value to God or man for no one

2072
01:33:22,470 --> 01:33:27,370
will want what I offer if I don't

2073
01:33:27,370 --> 01:33:30,170
reveal Christ beginning in my home.

2074
01:33:34,410 --> 01:33:39,710
In Jesus Christ's name in Jesus the Christ's

2075
01:33:39,710 --> 01:33:45,190
name for his sake only for his glory

2076
01:33:45,190 --> 01:33:49,450
only I ask this with all my heart

2077
01:33:50,110 --> 01:33:55,930
of my Father in heaven Amen Can we

2078
01:33:55,930 --> 01:33:58,030
remain just as we are just for one

2079
01:33:58,030 --> 01:34:05,410
moment, don't move America has one hope if

2080
01:34:05,410 --> 01:34:07,550
the Christians of this land seek God for

2081
01:34:07,550 --> 01:34:10,430
the things we've sought God for now not

2082
01:34:10,430 --> 01:34:14,070
for a Bible that's an empty word that

2083
01:34:14,070 --> 01:34:18,570
means anything today it can mean big crowds

2084
01:34:19,250 --> 01:34:21,770
that's your Bible sir, that's not otherwise the

2085
01:34:21,770 --> 01:34:24,470
Jehovah Witnesses have got your Bible God's Bible

2086
01:34:24,470 --> 01:34:28,570
it's not true and to a Christian there

2087
01:34:28,570 --> 01:34:32,390
are multitudes of Christians in this land but

2088
01:34:32,390 --> 01:34:34,410
the bulk I believe are compromising and that's

2089
01:34:34,410 --> 01:34:39,150
why we have lost our vital reality we

2090
01:34:39,150 --> 01:34:41,050
as a salt of the earth have lost

2091
01:34:41,050 --> 01:34:44,690
our saviour and we've become worthless the world

2092
01:34:44,690 --> 01:34:46,130
just looks upon what we've got and doesn't

2093
01:34:46,130 --> 01:34:47,430
want it and we're trampled on the foot

2094
01:34:47,430 --> 01:34:48,610
of men they don't want that and I

2095
01:34:48,610 --> 01:34:52,130
don't blame them until we get back to

2096
01:34:52,130 --> 01:34:55,550
this you want to pray for something God

2097
01:34:55,550 --> 01:35:00,370
let the Christians of America seek this because

2098
01:35:00,370 --> 01:35:02,030
until they get back to the standard of

2099
01:35:02,030 --> 01:35:04,430
this book you've never known the Bible and

2100
01:35:04,430 --> 01:35:07,130
your country will get worse in its problems

2101
01:35:07,790 --> 01:35:11,050
but if Christians across this land seek God

2102
01:35:11,050 --> 01:35:13,750
through this standard of this book of just

2103
01:35:13,750 --> 01:35:15,850
what I've preached today let alone the rest

2104
01:35:16,550 --> 01:35:20,450
I guarantee you America nothing this world will

2105
01:35:20,450 --> 01:35:23,310
try will destroy this land your history will

2106
01:35:23,310 --> 01:35:26,270
change and stagger the whole world because Christians

2107
01:35:26,270 --> 01:35:28,170
on their knees is the only army that

2108
01:35:28,170 --> 01:35:32,910
can save America from being destroyed your great

2109
01:35:32,910 --> 01:35:37,390
enemy isn't Islam your great enemy is Christians

2110
01:35:37,930 --> 01:35:41,070
who could have saved their land but are

2111
01:35:41,070 --> 01:35:43,430
not hearing that this is what God's waiting

2112
01:35:43,430 --> 01:35:45,890
for before He'll answer their prayers and on

2113
01:35:45,890 --> 01:35:48,050
their knees that's the army God waits for

2114
01:35:48,050 --> 01:35:50,130
that's the only army that's going to save

2115
01:35:50,130 --> 01:35:51,630
this land the army of God on its

2116
01:35:51,630 --> 01:35:54,150
knees right with God because if our hearts

2117
01:35:54,150 --> 01:35:56,830
condemn us not then have we confidence toward

2118
01:35:56,830 --> 01:35:59,330
God and whatsoever we ask we receive of

2119
01:35:59,330 --> 01:36:02,030
Him because we keep His commandments and do

2120
01:36:02,030 --> 01:36:03,530
those things that are pleasing in His sight

2121
01:36:03,530 --> 01:36:07,330
if our hearts condemn us not and they

2122
01:36:07,330 --> 01:36:09,070
don't condemn anybody in England here from this

2123
01:36:09,070 --> 01:36:10,890
moment so right now if you started praying

2124
01:36:10,890 --> 01:36:13,210
for your nation tonight the devil and all

2125
01:36:13,210 --> 01:36:14,670
the powers of hell will be screaming and

2126
01:36:14,670 --> 01:36:18,370
hurling backwards in fear into eternity into space

2127
01:36:18,370 --> 01:36:20,510
at what you're doing because when you're right

2128
01:36:20,510 --> 01:36:23,330
with God if our hearts condemn us not

2129
01:36:23,330 --> 01:36:26,530
then have we confidence toward God church of

2130
01:36:26,530 --> 01:36:30,170
Jesus Christ but not until then and whatsoever

2131
01:36:30,170 --> 01:36:34,970
we ask we receive of Him because we

2132
01:36:34,970 --> 01:36:37,010
keep His commandments and do those things that

2133
01:36:37,010 --> 01:36:40,450
are pleasing in His sight the eyes of

2134
01:36:40,450 --> 01:36:41,870
the Lord are over the righteous His ears

2135
01:36:41,870 --> 01:36:44,150
are open unto their prayers but the face

2136
01:36:44,150 --> 01:36:45,250
of the Lord is against them that do

2137
01:36:45,250 --> 01:36:51,230
evil Christians included your prayers will turn this

2138
01:36:51,230 --> 01:36:53,090
land's history it's not your president that's going

2139
01:36:53,090 --> 01:36:56,330
to do that don't wait for politicians as

2140
01:36:56,330 --> 01:36:58,150
a man said last night let me tell

2141
01:36:58,150 --> 01:37:00,530
you from my heart sir I'm not American

2142
01:37:00,530 --> 01:37:02,010
so you're going to have to forgive me

2143
01:37:02,010 --> 01:37:05,710
I have one fear for America that the

2144
01:37:05,710 --> 01:37:07,610
Christians don't seek God like the Scots and

2145
01:37:07,610 --> 01:37:10,250
others and then start praying on their knees

2146
01:37:10,250 --> 01:37:12,710
for this land to be saved from what

2147
01:37:12,710 --> 01:37:14,910
the devil wants to do if the Christians

2148
01:37:14,910 --> 01:37:17,210
turn back to what they should be the

2149
01:37:17,210 --> 01:37:19,850
godless will start to tremble not to look

2150
01:37:19,850 --> 01:37:21,450
at you in contempt and tremble in you

2151
01:37:21,450 --> 01:37:23,890
like they are they will tremble and fear

2152
01:37:23,890 --> 01:37:27,630
as they open their mouth against you let

2153
01:37:27,630 --> 01:37:29,550
alone they finally call against you as being

2154
01:37:29,550 --> 01:37:34,910
the evil ones you want revival now when

2155
01:37:34,910 --> 01:37:36,610
I tell you what you really need wanting

2156
01:37:36,610 --> 01:37:38,510
is that the church of Jesus Christ gets

2157
01:37:38,510 --> 01:37:40,830
back to the standard of this book outside

2158
01:37:40,830 --> 01:37:43,110
of that you're asking God for something he

2159
01:37:43,110 --> 01:37:47,190
doesn't want and then church of Christ right

2160
01:37:47,190 --> 01:37:49,010
with God on their knees watch what God

2161
01:37:49,010 --> 01:37:53,310
does for your land until then until then

2162
01:37:53,310 --> 01:37:56,650
your land has no hope you will weep

2163
01:37:57,310 --> 01:38:00,770
soon you will weep soon church of Christ

2164
01:38:00,770 --> 01:38:02,870
if you don't because this is the only

2165
01:38:02,870 --> 01:38:08,980
means by which God can save America now

2166
01:38:08,980 --> 01:38:10,820
you may be offended because I'm not even

2167
01:38:10,820 --> 01:38:15,640
American I have a responsibility though not just

2168
01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:17,660
for one little land or one little denomination

2169
01:38:19,380 --> 01:38:22,920
like Wesley I try to ask God that

2170
01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:25,340
the world will be my palace that's not

2171
01:38:25,340 --> 01:38:29,240
sincere because God loved the world so I

2172
01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:31,000
don't stand you as an ambassador for Jesus

2173
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:32,940
I don't stand you as an ambassador for

2174
01:38:32,940 --> 01:38:35,580
South Africa that would be folly I wouldn't

2175
01:38:35,580 --> 01:38:39,620
speak to politics I have one thing in

2176
01:38:39,620 --> 01:38:41,140
my life in being in your country an

2177
01:38:41,140 --> 01:38:45,300
ambassador for Christ and one thing to tell

2178
01:38:45,300 --> 01:38:47,600
this land is what this book says outside

2179
01:38:47,600 --> 01:38:49,720
of that I've got nothing of any worth

2180
01:38:49,720 --> 01:38:51,700
to you but don't you judge me for

2181
01:38:51,700 --> 01:38:53,080

for me what you pray in that brief

2212
01:40:24,270 --> 01:40:26,870
moment I'm quite sure will be more meaningful

2213
01:40:26,870 --> 01:40:29,210
than if we passed a million other preachers

2214
01:40:29,210 --> 01:40:31,070
because you're men of God will you commit

2215
01:40:31,070 --> 01:40:32,530
us to God just a short prayer each

2216
01:40:32,530 --> 01:40:34,690
please and then brother Denny will commit us

2217
01:40:34,690 --> 01:40:36,890
properly to tell us how to end this

2218
01:40:37,750 --> 01:40:39,390
will you please just have a short prayer

2219
01:40:39,390 --> 01:40:39,650
each please
