1
00:00:00,380 --> 00:00:03,660
There is no other name in whom salvation

2
00:00:03,660 --> 00:00:06,480
and redemption were made possible except the name

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,120
of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

4
00:00:08,580 --> 00:00:11,060
Jesus Christ will always be the one and

5
00:00:11,060 --> 00:00:14,840
only because simply he is the true divine

6
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,580
God revealed in the flesh, the one who

7
00:00:17,580 --> 00:00:22,120
created us all, created heavens and earth, all

8
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:26,220
both realms, physical, tangible and spiritual.

9
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,740
He is the only way, the truth and

10
00:00:28,740 --> 00:00:29,220
the life.

11
00:00:29,220 --> 00:00:31,240
He is the alpha and the omega.

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,160
He is the first and the last.

13
00:00:33,300 --> 00:00:34,500
He is the beginning and the end.

14
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:36,820
He is the life and the resurrection.

15
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,620
He is everything you ever need and he

16
00:00:42,620 --> 00:00:47,200
is the only true faithful, loyal, holy companion,

17
00:00:47,580 --> 00:00:50,220
true friend that you could ever find and

18
00:00:50,220 --> 00:00:50,860
come across.

19
00:00:50,860 --> 00:00:56,820
Jesus Christ is the irreplaceable and he is

20
00:00:56,820 --> 00:00:59,160
the true divine God who was revealed in

21
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,140
the flesh, so he is the incomprehensible.

22
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,860
We can never fully understand him but all

23
00:01:06,860 --> 00:01:10,220
we can do is accept him as he

24
00:01:10,220 --> 00:01:13,640
is and as every word that is uttered

25
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:14,940
from his holy mouth.

26
00:01:15,260 --> 00:01:16,940
It is nothing but the truth.

27
00:01:16,940 --> 00:01:20,340
Believe in it, trust in it and you

28
00:01:20,340 --> 00:01:26,580
will see the amazing God being revealed in

29
00:01:26,580 --> 00:01:27,140
your life.

30
00:01:27,860 --> 00:01:31,700
You will never regret the moment you say

31
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:36,620
to Jesus Christ, yes, I do, I want

32
00:01:36,620 --> 00:01:37,120
you Lord.

33
00:01:37,740 --> 00:01:40,720
You will never regret it because you will

34
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:47,420
never, ever, ever find anyone that comes anywhere

35
00:01:47,420 --> 00:01:51,360
near the one and only Jesus Christ of

36
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,000
Nazareth, the only true God.

37
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,640
You won't find anyone else.

38
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,000
Trust me, you won't.

39
00:02:01,540 --> 00:02:02,340
He is the only one.

40
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,700
I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify

41
00:02:05,700 --> 00:02:07,720
to you these things in the churches.

42
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:10,600
I am the root and the offspring of

43
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,300
David, the bright and morning star and the

44
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:17,300
spirit and the bright say, come and let

45
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:20,100
him who hears say, come and let him

46
00:02:20,100 --> 00:02:21,440
who thirsts come.

47
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,560
Whoever desires, let him take the water of

48
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,440
life freely for I testify to everyone who

49
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,900
hears the words of the prophecy of this

50
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:31,180
book.

51
00:02:31,260 --> 00:02:35,120
If anyone adds to these things, God will

52
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,480
add to him the plagues that are written

53
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,180
in this book and if anyone takes away

54
00:02:40,180 --> 00:02:42,580
from the words of the book of this

55
00:02:42,580 --> 00:02:46,180
prophecy, God shall take away his part from

56
00:02:46,180 --> 00:02:48,740
the book of life, from the holy city

57
00:02:48,740 --> 00:02:52,600
and from the things which are written in

58
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:53,120
this book.

59
00:02:54,180 --> 00:02:59,020
He who testifies to these things, surely I

60
00:02:59,020 --> 00:02:59,980
am coming quickly.

61
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,380
Amen, even so come Lord Jesus, the grace

62
00:03:05,380 --> 00:03:07,720
of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you

63
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:08,380
all.

64
00:03:08,740 --> 00:03:11,180
Amen and all glory be to our Lord

65
00:03:11,180 --> 00:03:14,040
and Savior Jesus Christ forever and ever.

66
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:15,020
Amen.

67
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,260
All right, so the last chapter and the

68
00:03:19,260 --> 00:03:20,880
end of the book of Revelation.

69
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:25,440
Last week we stopped at verse 15 and

70
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,060
verse 15 ended with this, and whoever loves

71
00:03:29,060 --> 00:03:30,520
and practices a lie.

72
00:03:30,820 --> 00:03:34,000
It says there was outside dogs, there was

73
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,220
sorcerers, sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters and

74
00:03:39,220 --> 00:03:41,860
whoever loves and practices a lie and we

75
00:03:41,860 --> 00:03:46,100
talked about it in depth, in depth and

76
00:03:46,100 --> 00:03:49,280
we said if we stop lying, we will

77
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,180
stop all other problems that we encounter.

78
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,480
Lie is a foundation to causing a lot

79
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:58,740
of dramas in our life.

80
00:03:58,980 --> 00:04:01,720
We stop lying, we will stop a lot

81
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,340
of bad habits we've put ourselves into.

82
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:11,340
Verse 16, I Jesus have sent my angel

83
00:04:11,340 --> 00:04:14,880
to testify to you these things in the

84
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:15,459
churches.

85
00:04:16,380 --> 00:04:19,620
When we read in Revelation chapter 1, the

86
00:04:19,620 --> 00:04:22,840
very beginning of the book of Revelation chapter

87
00:04:22,840 --> 00:04:27,580
1 verse 9, it says I John, the

88
00:04:27,580 --> 00:04:30,620
beginning of Revelation I John who is the

89
00:04:30,620 --> 00:04:33,400
disciple of Christ but at the end of

90
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,160
Revelation I Jesus, no longer John.

91
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:43,440
Because the very first verse of chapter 1

92
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,580
of Revelation, the book of Revelation of Jesus

93
00:04:47,580 --> 00:04:50,960
Christ, this book belongs to the Lord Jesus,

94
00:04:51,340 --> 00:04:52,540
it is his own.

95
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:55,840
He wrote it, he is the author of

96
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:59,120
it but out of love and mercy gave

97
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,720
it to his angel and commanded his angel

98
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,700
to give it to his beloved, the disciple

99
00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:08,200
John and then John sent it to their

100
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:14,460
seven churches in Asia minor, current Turkey in

101
00:05:14,460 --> 00:05:15,120
Asia minor.

102
00:05:15,460 --> 00:05:18,140
But at the end of the book, the

103
00:05:18,140 --> 00:05:21,940
Lord Jesus reminds John the beloved and all

104
00:05:21,940 --> 00:05:24,740
of us, I'm the author, it is not

105
00:05:24,740 --> 00:05:25,060
John.

106
00:05:26,060 --> 00:05:28,320
So I say to you at the end,

107
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,500
I Jesus now, no more John is talking,

108
00:05:31,780 --> 00:05:33,040
it is the Lord himself.

109
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,140
I Jesus have sent my angel to testify

110
00:05:37,140 --> 00:05:40,300
to you these things in the churches.

111
00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:41,960
Which churches?

112
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,820
The ones we studied and went through in

113
00:05:46,820 --> 00:05:49,960
Revelation chapter 2 and 3, the seven churches

114
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:56,360
that began with Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Theatera, Sardis,

115
00:05:56,980 --> 00:06:00,980
Philadelphia and Laodicea, the seven churches in Asia

116
00:06:00,980 --> 00:06:01,360
minor.

117
00:06:01,620 --> 00:06:04,920
The Lord says, I sent my angel to

118
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,760
testify to all the seven churches in Asia

119
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:09,600
minor.

120
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:15,040
Ephesus, the beloved, Smyrna, the bitter one, Pergamos,

121
00:06:15,420 --> 00:06:19,180
the one I entered with a matrimonial bond,

122
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:25,260
Theatera, a stage where Christians at one stage

123
00:06:25,260 --> 00:06:30,400
started acting toward one another, meaning they started

124
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,340
faking their faith and they started faking the

125
00:06:34,340 --> 00:06:36,700
way they believe in the Lord Jesus, just

126
00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:38,920
like those who go on the stage and

127
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:39,500
act.

128
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,380
The actors are not the real people.

129
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,900
They've taken a role that is not theirs

130
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:47,340
and it's only temporary.

131
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,620
The Lord said, don't ever be a theater.

132
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,660
You better be honest and true to yourself.

133
00:06:53,280 --> 00:07:00,000
And then Sardis, the selected group, a selected

134
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,400
group that said to themselves, we hold the

135
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,240
truth and I don't want to go into

136
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:05,960
too much detail.

137
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,540
Then Philadelphia, Thelos, Delphos, brotherly love.

138
00:07:10,900 --> 00:07:13,260
And by the way, these names are all

139
00:07:13,260 --> 00:07:18,240
of Greek origin, all Greek origin, Philadelphia, brotherly

140
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,080
love and Laodicea.

141
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,460
Laodicea means the rebellious nation.

142
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,620
The beginning is Ephesus, the beloved, but at

143
00:07:29,620 --> 00:07:34,640
the end Laodicea, Christians walking away from Christ,

144
00:07:36,870 --> 00:07:38,770
even though they are seven.

145
00:07:39,190 --> 00:07:40,790
But we said about this, they are not

146
00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:44,310
seven churches because the Lord only has one

147
00:07:44,310 --> 00:07:47,630
bride to him and that bride is the

148
00:07:47,630 --> 00:07:48,010
church.

149
00:07:48,050 --> 00:07:50,610
So the church is one and one only.

150
00:07:50,610 --> 00:07:53,990
But this beloved church, the bride of Christ

151
00:07:53,990 --> 00:07:57,890
was going to go through seven stages till

152
00:07:57,890 --> 00:07:58,710
the very end.

153
00:07:59,250 --> 00:08:01,950
Now, if you ask what stage are we

154
00:08:01,950 --> 00:08:05,010
at in the 21st century, we are at

155
00:08:05,010 --> 00:08:08,030
the stage of Philadelphia and Laodicea.

156
00:08:08,190 --> 00:08:10,630
There is brotherly love, but at the same

157
00:08:10,630 --> 00:08:14,370
time, there is Christians veering off the road

158
00:08:14,370 --> 00:08:17,070
and walking away from Christ at the same

159
00:08:17,070 --> 00:08:17,590
time.

160
00:08:18,690 --> 00:08:21,530
You look on these social media platforms, so

161
00:08:21,530 --> 00:08:23,610
many people talk about the Lord Jesus.

162
00:08:23,610 --> 00:08:26,150
There is this brotherly love happening throughout the

163
00:08:26,150 --> 00:08:28,430
world, but at the same time, there is

164
00:08:28,430 --> 00:08:31,190
people walking away from the Lord from within

165
00:08:31,190 --> 00:08:32,750
the church at the same time.

166
00:08:33,150 --> 00:08:36,970
We are at the final stage before the

167
00:08:36,970 --> 00:08:38,409
coming of the Messiah.

168
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:43,039
I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify

169
00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:46,020
to you these things in the churches.

170
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:48,560
And then he goes on, the Lord and

171
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:55,860
says, I am the root and the offspring

172
00:08:55,860 --> 00:08:57,080
of David.

173
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,060
King David, the one who wrote the Psalms

174
00:09:00,060 --> 00:09:02,900
about a thousand years prior to the coming

175
00:09:02,900 --> 00:09:03,660
of the Messiah.

176
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,680
I am the root of David and I

177
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:08,620
am the offspring of David.

178
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:12,060
The root of David, I am the divine.

179
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,240
The offspring of David, I am the perfect

180
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:15,700
man.

181
00:09:15,900 --> 00:09:18,280
I am the perfect God, the root of

182
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,180
David, and I am the perfect man, the

183
00:09:21,180 --> 00:09:22,720
offspring of David.

184
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,700
In my divinity, I am David's root, meaning

185
00:09:26,700 --> 00:09:28,520
I am his creator.

186
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,880
I am his foundation.

187
00:09:31,420 --> 00:09:33,560
Roots are the foundation to everything.

188
00:09:34,140 --> 00:09:37,420
So in my divinity, I, Jesus Christ, I

189
00:09:37,420 --> 00:09:40,480
am the God of David, the creator of

190
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:40,860
David.

191
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,000
But in my humanity, I am the offspring

192
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,320
of David because I descend from the house

193
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:49,040
of David.

194
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,700
I come from the tribe of Judah, which

195
00:09:52,700 --> 00:09:54,060
is the house of David.

196
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,260
I was born in Bethlehem, the city of

197
00:09:57,260 --> 00:09:57,700
David.

198
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,880
So in my humanity, I come from the

199
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,700
house of David.

200
00:10:01,980 --> 00:10:04,820
In my divinity, I am the root, the

201
00:10:04,820 --> 00:10:07,180
creator and the God of David.

202
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,300
And King David himself said it in his

203
00:10:12,300 --> 00:10:16,520
Psalm number 110 verse 1, the Lord said

204
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,280
to my Lord, come up and sit at

205
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,480
my right hand till I put your enemies

206
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,220
as your footstool.

207
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,080
The Lord said to my Lord, King David

208
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,260
is prophesying.

209
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,260
The Lord said to my Lord, I, David,

210
00:10:34,460 --> 00:10:37,300
who is the Lord that said God, the

211
00:10:37,300 --> 00:10:40,340
father, who is my Lord, King David, who

212
00:10:40,340 --> 00:10:42,380
is the Lord of David, God, the son,

213
00:10:42,500 --> 00:10:43,600
Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

214
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,220
So God, the father, the Lord said to

215
00:10:46,220 --> 00:10:49,120
my Lord, Jesus Christ, come up and sit

216
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,100
at my right hand.

217
00:10:50,180 --> 00:10:54,220
When he went after resurrection, ascended to heaven

218
00:10:54,220 --> 00:10:55,960
and sat at the right hand of the

219
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:56,320
father.

220
00:10:56,660 --> 00:10:59,040
And he said, till I put your enemies

221
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,460
as your footstool.

222
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,120
So the Lord comes back and says, if

223
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,820
David called me Lord, then how can I

224
00:11:08,820 --> 00:11:09,880
be his son?

225
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,000
I am his son in my humanity, but

226
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,100
I am his Lord in my divinity.

227
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,300
Son as the offspring, Lord and God as

228
00:11:19,300 --> 00:11:20,200
the root of David.

229
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,040
Please forgive me.

230
00:11:26,140 --> 00:11:30,000
My voice, my throat is almost finishing.

231
00:11:31,140 --> 00:11:32,660
The chapter is finishing.

232
00:11:33,060 --> 00:11:35,380
The book of Revelation is finishing and my

233
00:11:35,380 --> 00:11:37,400
throat is finishing as well.

234
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,220
So please pray for me, for me to

235
00:11:40,220 --> 00:11:41,920
last throughout this evening.

236
00:11:43,620 --> 00:11:47,540
Continues and the Lord says, the bright and

237
00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:51,540
morning star, the bright and morning star.

238
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:52,480
Amazing.

239
00:11:56,050 --> 00:12:01,070
When you get up early morning, before dawn

240
00:12:01,070 --> 00:12:05,210
hits the horizon, you will see one massive

241
00:12:05,210 --> 00:12:06,530
star on its own.

242
00:12:07,410 --> 00:12:10,570
And it's very big, bigger than a normal

243
00:12:10,570 --> 00:12:12,190
star that you will see throughout the night.

244
00:12:12,590 --> 00:12:15,910
This one comes out at the very, very

245
00:12:15,910 --> 00:12:19,330
early morning before dawn breaks the horizons, you

246
00:12:19,330 --> 00:12:21,230
will see a big, massive star.

247
00:12:21,770 --> 00:12:25,210
And only few minutes after the stars appearance,

248
00:12:25,670 --> 00:12:29,510
the sun's light starts appearing.

249
00:12:30,830 --> 00:12:34,850
He says, I am the bright and morning

250
00:12:34,850 --> 00:12:35,370
star.

251
00:12:36,870 --> 00:12:39,470
And the book of Malachi, which is the

252
00:12:39,470 --> 00:12:43,110
last prophet of the Old Testament in chapter

253
00:12:43,110 --> 00:12:47,330
four, verse two, Malachi is prophesying about the

254
00:12:47,330 --> 00:12:47,910
Lord Jesus.

255
00:12:48,370 --> 00:12:51,830
He says, he calls them the son of

256
00:12:51,830 --> 00:12:56,390
righteousness and healing in his wings.

257
00:12:57,050 --> 00:12:59,370
He refers to the Lord Jesus as the

258
00:12:59,370 --> 00:13:02,650
sun S U N the sun that rises

259
00:13:02,650 --> 00:13:03,410
every morning.

260
00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:06,650
He is the son of righteousness and healing

261
00:13:06,650 --> 00:13:07,610
in his wings.

262
00:13:07,770 --> 00:13:10,630
Well, the Lord Jesus is the sun S

263
00:13:10,630 --> 00:13:13,950
U N and he is the morning star

264
00:13:13,950 --> 00:13:16,510
son as the sun.

265
00:13:16,650 --> 00:13:18,970
He is the judge of the world.

266
00:13:18,970 --> 00:13:21,790
And as the morning star, he is the

267
00:13:21,790 --> 00:13:23,930
bride to his beloved church.

268
00:13:24,130 --> 00:13:27,350
The, the, the bride, he is the groom

269
00:13:27,350 --> 00:13:28,410
to the bride.

270
00:13:28,750 --> 00:13:31,210
And he is saying, I am the bright

271
00:13:31,210 --> 00:13:32,150
and morning star.

272
00:13:32,470 --> 00:13:35,550
Meaning when I come as the morning star,

273
00:13:35,730 --> 00:13:37,750
I'm coming to take you home.

274
00:13:37,910 --> 00:13:40,390
But when I come as the S U

275
00:13:40,390 --> 00:13:43,210
N as the sun, I am coming to

276
00:13:43,210 --> 00:13:44,850
judge the whole world.

277
00:13:45,550 --> 00:13:48,250
When I come as the sun, no one

278
00:13:48,250 --> 00:13:51,390
will escape my wrath and my judgment because

279
00:13:51,390 --> 00:13:54,470
whoever comes to my judgment will be found

280
00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:58,190
guilty for nobody can say to God, I

281
00:13:58,190 --> 00:14:00,270
did not sin.

282
00:14:00,670 --> 00:14:01,690
Everybody is a sinner.

283
00:14:02,310 --> 00:14:04,530
So as the S U N son, I'm

284
00:14:04,530 --> 00:14:07,390
the judge, but as the morning star, I'm

285
00:14:07,390 --> 00:14:10,150
the heavenly groom coming to take my beloved

286
00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:13,070
bride home once and for all.

287
00:14:14,130 --> 00:14:16,990
So in the end of the book of

288
00:14:16,990 --> 00:14:21,730
revelation, the Lord is coming with his mercy

289
00:14:21,730 --> 00:14:25,450
as the heavenly groom is coming to his

290
00:14:25,450 --> 00:14:28,710
own and saying, I'm coming to you as

291
00:14:28,710 --> 00:14:31,270
the morning star to take you before the

292
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:33,290
sun rises and judges the world.

293
00:14:33,990 --> 00:14:37,830
I'll take you before judgment reaches you.

294
00:14:38,130 --> 00:14:38,390
Why?

295
00:14:38,910 --> 00:14:42,330
Because since you accepted me as Lord and

296
00:14:42,330 --> 00:14:46,510
savior, since you walked faithfully and loyally and

297
00:14:46,510 --> 00:14:49,330
followed my footsteps, I will come as the

298
00:14:49,330 --> 00:14:50,010
morning star.

299
00:14:50,450 --> 00:14:53,490
But those who rejected me, I will come

300
00:14:53,490 --> 00:14:55,730
as the S U N the sun to

301
00:14:55,730 --> 00:14:56,110
judge.

302
00:14:58,470 --> 00:15:01,450
I am the bright and morning star verse

303
00:15:01,450 --> 00:15:04,930
17 and the spirit and the bride say,

304
00:15:05,390 --> 00:15:09,850
come and let him who hears say, come

305
00:15:09,850 --> 00:15:14,090
and the spirit and the bride say, come.

306
00:15:15,330 --> 00:15:16,690
Who is the bride?

307
00:15:17,170 --> 00:15:18,190
The church.

308
00:15:18,970 --> 00:15:19,970
Now who is the spirit?

309
00:15:20,570 --> 00:15:21,850
The Holy spirit.

310
00:15:22,950 --> 00:15:26,350
Who is dwelling in the church now?

311
00:15:26,910 --> 00:15:28,130
The Holy spirit.

312
00:15:29,970 --> 00:15:33,710
So in here, he didn't say, and Jesus

313
00:15:33,710 --> 00:15:35,130
and the bride said, come.

314
00:15:35,290 --> 00:15:38,550
No, the spirit and the bride said, come

315
00:15:38,550 --> 00:15:41,890
the spirit, Holy spirit, the bride, the church,

316
00:15:41,990 --> 00:15:45,050
both of them are saying, come, come to

317
00:15:45,050 --> 00:15:45,370
who?

318
00:15:46,090 --> 00:15:47,150
Jesus Christ.

319
00:15:47,970 --> 00:15:50,070
The Holy spirit and the bride are saying

320
00:15:50,070 --> 00:15:52,190
to the Lord Jesus, please come.

321
00:15:53,990 --> 00:15:58,510
And when you say to somebody, come, you

322
00:15:58,510 --> 00:15:59,470
want them to come quickly.

323
00:16:01,290 --> 00:16:03,270
You want, you want, you want that person

324
00:16:03,270 --> 00:16:06,150
to come urgently.

325
00:16:06,750 --> 00:16:09,170
And why would you call someone to come

326
00:16:09,170 --> 00:16:09,650
quickly?

327
00:16:10,550 --> 00:16:12,950
For one reason, because you miss them.

328
00:16:13,950 --> 00:16:15,910
And why do you miss them for one

329
00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:16,290
reason?

330
00:16:16,550 --> 00:16:21,370
Because you love them because you love them.

331
00:16:22,450 --> 00:16:24,670
That's why you call them to come quickly.

332
00:16:26,390 --> 00:16:36,570
My beloved, when you

333
00:16:36,570 --> 00:16:38,090
read in book and the book of acts

334
00:16:38,090 --> 00:16:45,250
1728, it talks about the Holy spirit and

335
00:16:45,250 --> 00:16:47,630
it says in him, meaning the Holy spirit

336
00:16:47,630 --> 00:16:50,090
in him, we live in him.

337
00:16:50,430 --> 00:16:51,810
We move in him.

338
00:16:52,470 --> 00:16:56,770
We exist three things in the Holy spirit.

339
00:16:56,990 --> 00:16:58,590
We live in the Holy spirit.

340
00:16:58,590 --> 00:17:00,510
We move in the Holy spirit.

341
00:17:00,750 --> 00:17:05,170
We exist ever since the Lord Jesus went

342
00:17:05,170 --> 00:17:08,329
up to heaven after resurrection, he ascended to

343
00:17:08,329 --> 00:17:10,930
heaven and sat at the right hand of

344
00:17:10,930 --> 00:17:11,450
the father.

345
00:17:11,450 --> 00:17:14,089
The moment the Lord sat at the right

346
00:17:14,089 --> 00:17:17,310
hand of the father, 10 days later, he

347
00:17:17,310 --> 00:17:20,569
sent the Holy spirit to dwell in us.

348
00:17:20,710 --> 00:17:21,990
I E the church.

349
00:17:22,270 --> 00:17:25,550
So when did the Holy spirit descend and

350
00:17:25,550 --> 00:17:29,430
dwelt in us on Pentecost, the 50th day

351
00:17:29,430 --> 00:17:32,370
where the church of Christ of the new

352
00:17:32,370 --> 00:17:36,450
Testament was born ever since the 50th day

353
00:17:36,450 --> 00:17:40,190
till the Lord comes and takes his bride

354
00:17:40,190 --> 00:17:44,010
without a blemish, without a stain perfect and

355
00:17:44,010 --> 00:17:45,630
bring her into the father's house.

356
00:17:46,230 --> 00:17:49,330
Who are we living in, moving in and

357
00:17:49,330 --> 00:17:54,290
existing in the Holy spirit, not Jesus, but

358
00:17:57,010 --> 00:18:00,670
the most name we invoke in our prayers

359
00:18:00,670 --> 00:18:03,310
and our requests is the Lord Jesus.

360
00:18:03,450 --> 00:18:06,750
Poor Holy spirit is not mentioned that often.

361
00:18:08,290 --> 00:18:11,390
Every time we say the Lord's prayer, our

362
00:18:11,390 --> 00:18:13,950
father who art in heaven, we mentioned the

363
00:18:13,950 --> 00:18:17,790
father's name and then Lord Jesus, please come

364
00:18:17,790 --> 00:18:19,270
Lord, save me.

365
00:18:19,370 --> 00:18:22,050
Lord, I need you Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord.

366
00:18:22,170 --> 00:18:24,750
And the Holy spirit is waiting for his

367
00:18:24,750 --> 00:18:25,790
name to be invoked.

368
00:18:26,210 --> 00:18:27,950
We don't invoke him that much.

369
00:18:28,090 --> 00:18:30,130
We don't say Holy spirit, come and fill

370
00:18:30,130 --> 00:18:31,390
me with you.

371
00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:33,790
Come and take me to the Lord Jesus.

372
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:35,250
We don't use his name.

373
00:18:35,550 --> 00:18:36,270
Poor thing.

374
00:18:36,710 --> 00:18:40,210
We need to get into this rhythm where

375
00:18:40,210 --> 00:18:43,530
we start using and invoking the name of

376
00:18:43,530 --> 00:18:47,150
the third person of the Holy Trinity.

377
00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:51,090
I E the Holy spirit start remembering the

378
00:18:51,090 --> 00:18:55,370
Holy spirit in your prayers because he's the

379
00:18:55,370 --> 00:18:57,350
one who's going to take you to Jesus

380
00:18:57,350 --> 00:18:57,810
Christ.

381
00:18:58,930 --> 00:19:00,110
He's the only one.

382
00:19:01,770 --> 00:19:03,110
He's going to take you to the Lord

383
00:19:03,110 --> 00:19:03,430
Jesus.

384
00:19:04,570 --> 00:19:06,890
So the spirit, Holy spirit and the, and

385
00:19:06,890 --> 00:19:09,870
the bride, the church are saying to Jesus,

386
00:19:09,990 --> 00:19:11,470
come, come quickly.

387
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,860
And the Holy spirit, we live and the

388
00:19:20,860 --> 00:19:24,060
Holy spirit, we move and the Holy spirit,

389
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:25,000
we exist.

390
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,560
And the Holy spirit, we live.

391
00:19:27,940 --> 00:19:29,880
We were all dead in sin.

392
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,760
The Lord Jesus washed us with his precious

393
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,460
blood and gave us life.

394
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,180
And that life, he instilled his Holy spirit,

395
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,000
his spirit in us.

396
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,560
So the Holy spirit is the source of

397
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:43,100
life.

398
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,940
So the Holy spirit gave us first life.

399
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,160
After giving you life, you become alive.

400
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,200
The moment you're alive, then you are able

401
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:54,900
to move.

402
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,240
If you're dead, you can't move.

403
00:19:57,540 --> 00:19:59,560
You need to be alive in order to

404
00:19:59,560 --> 00:19:59,860
move.

405
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,140
The Holy spirit gave me life through Jesus

406
00:20:03,140 --> 00:20:04,140
Christ of Nazareth.

407
00:20:04,340 --> 00:20:07,920
And when I was revived and giving that

408
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,680
life, then I was able to move and

409
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,020
in the Holy spirit, I will exist.

410
00:20:13,140 --> 00:20:14,640
That's for the next life.

411
00:20:15,120 --> 00:20:17,920
I will exist in him for eternities.

412
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,660
I live, I move on earth.

413
00:20:20,700 --> 00:20:23,600
I exist in heaven and the Holy spirit,

414
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,300
the one who's going to instill me in

415
00:20:26,300 --> 00:20:29,160
God's kingdom for eternities to come is the

416
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:29,720
Holy spirit.

417
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,920
We need to invoke this Holy name more

418
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,820
often in our prayers.

419
00:20:37,260 --> 00:20:39,560
So the spirit, which is the Holy spirit

420
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,320
and the bride say, come and let him

421
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,460
who hears say, come.

422
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,420
John is referring to himself and let him

423
00:20:48,420 --> 00:20:50,940
who he's who heard these words, John, the

424
00:20:50,940 --> 00:20:54,480
beloved, and who is hearing these words, us,

425
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:59,340
the church, the believers, whoever he's these words,

426
00:20:59,580 --> 00:21:02,660
all of us, we should say alongside with

427
00:21:02,660 --> 00:21:05,900
the Holy spirit to Jesus Christ, please come

428
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:11,280
and come quickly because I need you desperately.

429
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,480
Lord, I miss you desperately.

430
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,760
Lord, I love you desperately.

431
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,980
Lord, I can't live any longer without you.

432
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,540
Lord, please come and make it quick and

433
00:21:25,510 --> 00:21:30,490
let him who thirsts come and let him

434
00:21:30,490 --> 00:21:34,970
who thirsts come first.

435
00:21:35,170 --> 00:21:41,830
He, my beloved symbolizes everything we lack and

436
00:21:41,830 --> 00:21:43,330
everything we need.

437
00:21:44,210 --> 00:21:48,470
You see, when you are thirsty, what does

438
00:21:48,470 --> 00:21:48,890
that mean?

439
00:21:49,070 --> 00:21:50,770
You are lacking water.

440
00:21:51,830 --> 00:21:53,450
You are in need of water.

441
00:21:53,810 --> 00:21:58,070
So the word first here symbolizes everything we

442
00:21:58,070 --> 00:22:00,330
need and everything we lack.

443
00:22:01,910 --> 00:22:05,730
And the moment we lack things, we begin

444
00:22:05,730 --> 00:22:09,690
searching for them, looking for them.

445
00:22:10,350 --> 00:22:18,630
The Lord is saying, what are you thirsting

446
00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:19,030
for?

447
00:22:20,450 --> 00:22:21,670
What are your thirsts?

448
00:22:23,190 --> 00:22:24,830
Are you thirsty for love?

449
00:22:25,850 --> 00:22:27,350
Are you thirsty for money?

450
00:22:28,470 --> 00:22:29,990
Are you thirsty for fame?

451
00:22:30,830 --> 00:22:32,250
Are you thirsty for power?

452
00:22:33,010 --> 00:22:36,670
Are you thirsty to be seen, to be

453
00:22:36,670 --> 00:22:37,030
known?

454
00:22:37,790 --> 00:22:40,970
Are you thirsty to read the Holy Bible

455
00:22:40,970 --> 00:22:41,330
more?

456
00:22:41,810 --> 00:22:43,530
Are you thirsty to go to the church

457
00:22:43,530 --> 00:22:43,830
more?

458
00:22:44,410 --> 00:22:46,930
Are you thirsty to be in everything that

459
00:22:46,930 --> 00:22:48,370
has to do with Christ more?

460
00:22:49,010 --> 00:22:51,290
Are you thirsty to know the Lord more?

461
00:22:51,650 --> 00:22:54,270
Are you thirsty to understand the Lord more?

462
00:22:54,610 --> 00:22:55,890
What are you thirsty for?

463
00:22:56,190 --> 00:22:59,590
Whatever you are thirsty for, the Lord is

464
00:22:59,590 --> 00:23:02,750
saying, I am the only one that can

465
00:23:02,750 --> 00:23:03,950
quench your thirst.

466
00:23:04,630 --> 00:23:05,410
I'm the only one.

467
00:23:08,620 --> 00:23:12,440
When we become thirsty for certain things and

468
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,040
we start searching for them our way, seeking

469
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,780
them our way, we will always remain thirsty

470
00:23:19,780 --> 00:23:21,640
and we will die thirsty.

471
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:28,540
Let's say I seeked power, I seeked fame,

472
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,960
I seeked wealth and I went after it

473
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,880
and I tried everything under the sun to

474
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,100
gain that power, that fame and that wealth.

475
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,880
And I did it and I achieved it.

476
00:23:42,540 --> 00:23:45,000
But at the end I died.

477
00:23:47,910 --> 00:23:49,290
What did I do?

478
00:23:49,750 --> 00:23:50,510
Nothing.

479
00:23:51,850 --> 00:23:56,750
I died thirsty because whatever I achieved I

480
00:23:56,750 --> 00:23:58,310
was not able to take it with me.

481
00:23:59,290 --> 00:24:02,230
But when the Lord gives, when the Lord

482
00:24:02,230 --> 00:24:07,410
quenches, you will never thirst ever again.

483
00:24:09,730 --> 00:24:12,810
And this is what the Lord Jesus said

484
00:24:12,810 --> 00:24:16,330
exactly to the Samaritan woman where we read

485
00:24:16,330 --> 00:24:18,830
this narrative in the gospel according to Saint

486
00:24:18,830 --> 00:24:20,230
John chapter 4.

487
00:24:20,690 --> 00:24:25,830
This Samaritan woman comes searching for water and

488
00:24:25,830 --> 00:24:28,950
then she refers to the well where that

489
00:24:28,950 --> 00:24:31,110
belonged to our father Jacob.

490
00:24:31,870 --> 00:24:35,050
The Lord said, you pull water out of

491
00:24:35,050 --> 00:24:36,690
this well, you will thirst again.

492
00:24:37,130 --> 00:24:39,950
But the water I give you, you will

493
00:24:39,950 --> 00:24:43,450
thirst no more because I will give you

494
00:24:43,450 --> 00:24:45,090
the living water.

495
00:24:46,130 --> 00:24:48,550
But the more you draw from this well,

496
00:24:48,990 --> 00:24:52,350
you will keep on being thirsty and you

497
00:24:52,350 --> 00:24:55,250
will keep on coming back because the water

498
00:24:55,250 --> 00:24:57,470
of the well comes from below.

499
00:24:57,750 --> 00:25:00,990
But the water I give, Jesus Christ, comes

500
00:25:00,990 --> 00:25:01,630
from above.

501
00:25:01,930 --> 00:25:04,970
And whatever comes from above is everlasting.

502
00:25:05,410 --> 00:25:09,150
But whatever comes from below is only temporal,

503
00:25:10,370 --> 00:25:15,630
is only temporal, good for nothing, good for

504
00:25:15,630 --> 00:25:15,970
nothing.

505
00:25:17,470 --> 00:25:22,390
The Lord says, blessed is the soul that

506
00:25:22,390 --> 00:25:25,450
thirsts for me, I Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

507
00:25:26,430 --> 00:25:31,110
If you thirst for me, I will quench

508
00:25:31,110 --> 00:25:31,730
you forever.

509
00:25:35,930 --> 00:25:40,210
And that's why he continues and says, whoever

510
00:25:40,210 --> 00:25:44,210
desires, let him take the water of life

511
00:25:44,210 --> 00:25:45,370
freely.

512
00:25:46,350 --> 00:25:48,650
Because the water I give, as the Lord

513
00:25:48,650 --> 00:25:50,990
said to the Samaritan woman, I give you

514
00:25:50,990 --> 00:25:51,990
living waters.

515
00:25:52,310 --> 00:25:53,750
And what is the living water?

516
00:25:53,750 --> 00:25:56,310
My word, the Holy Bible.

517
00:25:56,790 --> 00:26:01,770
The Lord says, thirst for my word, thirst

518
00:26:01,770 --> 00:26:04,850
for my word, read my word, drink it,

519
00:26:05,130 --> 00:26:08,850
absorb it, let it go in every single

520
00:26:08,850 --> 00:26:10,810
fiber of your entire being.

521
00:26:11,210 --> 00:26:13,890
Let it quench every thirst that is in

522
00:26:13,890 --> 00:26:14,770
your entire being.

523
00:26:15,210 --> 00:26:17,490
Be equipped and embedded in my word.

524
00:26:17,730 --> 00:26:21,830
Because when you are embedded in my word,

525
00:26:21,950 --> 00:26:25,170
my word is the everlasting living waters.

526
00:26:25,670 --> 00:26:29,330
When you drink it, you will never, ever

527
00:26:29,330 --> 00:26:30,170
thirst again.

528
00:26:31,470 --> 00:26:33,890
My word is the living water.

529
00:26:34,610 --> 00:26:37,910
And if you desire it, come and take

530
00:26:37,910 --> 00:26:41,270
it freely, because I gave it to you

531
00:26:41,270 --> 00:26:41,750
for free.

532
00:26:42,650 --> 00:26:44,310
I did not charge you for it.

533
00:26:45,550 --> 00:26:50,970
I gave it when I sacrificed my life

534
00:26:50,970 --> 00:26:51,750
on the cross.

535
00:26:52,810 --> 00:26:58,810
My word manifested and was made possible to

536
00:26:58,810 --> 00:27:01,670
be within your own reach when I died

537
00:27:01,670 --> 00:27:02,290
on the cross.

538
00:27:03,210 --> 00:27:04,850
I paid the price for it.

539
00:27:06,010 --> 00:27:07,090
And I gave it for free.

540
00:27:07,590 --> 00:27:09,650
But it took my life on the cross

541
00:27:09,650 --> 00:27:11,690
for you to receive it for free.

542
00:27:12,650 --> 00:27:16,750
Honor it, respect it, read it, and be

543
00:27:16,750 --> 00:27:17,930
familiar with my word.

544
00:27:19,070 --> 00:27:21,830
Because every time you fall into a mischief,

545
00:27:22,370 --> 00:27:26,250
every time you fall into some troublesome situations,

546
00:27:26,710 --> 00:27:30,050
recite my words and my words will quench

547
00:27:30,050 --> 00:27:33,270
your thirst and give you everlasting life.

548
00:27:33,690 --> 00:27:35,290
I will bring you out of your trouble

549
00:27:35,290 --> 00:27:38,750
if you trust and believe in every word

550
00:27:38,750 --> 00:27:41,710
that is uttered from my mouth, I, Jesus

551
00:27:41,710 --> 00:27:44,370
Christ of Nazareth, which is the mouth of

552
00:27:44,370 --> 00:27:44,730
God.

553
00:27:48,550 --> 00:27:49,370
Verse 18.

554
00:27:50,510 --> 00:27:53,230
For I testify to everyone who heeds.

555
00:27:54,330 --> 00:27:55,270
Who is testifying?

556
00:27:55,410 --> 00:27:55,850
The Lord.

557
00:27:56,470 --> 00:27:58,430
The Lord Jesus is talking all this.

558
00:27:58,870 --> 00:27:59,350
It is Him.

559
00:28:00,530 --> 00:28:01,510
For I testify.

560
00:28:01,730 --> 00:28:03,550
And what is the testimony of the Lord

561
00:28:03,550 --> 00:28:03,810
here?

562
00:28:04,830 --> 00:28:05,650
Pay attention.

563
00:28:06,010 --> 00:28:07,010
Very dangerous.

564
00:28:07,590 --> 00:28:10,010
Pay attention to the testimony of the Lord.

565
00:28:10,270 --> 00:28:13,630
He says, For I testify to everyone who

566
00:28:13,630 --> 00:28:16,030
heeds the words of the prophecy of this

567
00:28:16,030 --> 00:28:16,310
book.

568
00:28:16,470 --> 00:28:19,250
And when the Lord is saying the prophecy

569
00:28:19,250 --> 00:28:21,750
of this book, He doesn't mean the book

570
00:28:21,750 --> 00:28:23,110
of Revelation only.

571
00:28:23,490 --> 00:28:26,710
He means the entire Holy Bible from cover

572
00:28:26,710 --> 00:28:28,810
to cover, from Genesis to Revelation.

573
00:28:29,490 --> 00:28:32,510
All of this book is my word and

574
00:28:32,510 --> 00:28:34,210
my word is prophecy to you.

575
00:28:34,510 --> 00:28:38,330
For I testify to everyone who heeds the

576
00:28:38,330 --> 00:28:41,670
words of the entire Holy Bible, of the

577
00:28:41,670 --> 00:28:42,870
prophecy of this book.

578
00:28:43,930 --> 00:28:46,130
And this is the testimony of the Lord

579
00:28:46,130 --> 00:28:46,490
Jesus.

580
00:28:47,070 --> 00:28:51,790
If anyone adds to these things, God will

581
00:28:51,790 --> 00:28:54,750
add to him the plagues that are written

582
00:28:54,750 --> 00:28:55,610
in this book.

583
00:28:56,670 --> 00:28:59,530
And if anyone takes away from the words

584
00:28:59,530 --> 00:29:02,810
of the book of this prophecy, God shall

585
00:29:02,810 --> 00:29:05,190
take away his part from the book of

586
00:29:05,190 --> 00:29:08,130
life, from the holy city, and from the

587
00:29:08,130 --> 00:29:10,550
things which are written in this book.

588
00:29:13,030 --> 00:29:14,390
Very scary testimony.

589
00:29:16,770 --> 00:29:19,270
And when the Lord is saying, I testify,

590
00:29:19,650 --> 00:29:24,430
meaning every word I said will come true.

591
00:29:24,950 --> 00:29:28,030
Every word is written is the truth.

592
00:29:28,410 --> 00:29:33,270
And every prophecy I prophesied will come into

593
00:29:33,270 --> 00:29:33,630
wishing.

594
00:29:34,330 --> 00:29:37,110
Nothing I said will go by unless it

595
00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:37,810
is fulfilled.

596
00:29:38,630 --> 00:29:41,510
Heaven and earth shall pass by, but one

597
00:29:41,510 --> 00:29:44,910
dot and one letter from my word shall

598
00:29:44,910 --> 00:29:48,090
not pass by until it is all fulfilled,

599
00:29:48,230 --> 00:29:48,770
my beloved.

600
00:29:49,450 --> 00:29:52,490
Therefore, when I speak, you need to be

601
00:29:52,490 --> 00:29:53,850
very, very careful.

602
00:29:54,230 --> 00:29:56,550
When I speak, you need to be attentive.

603
00:29:57,210 --> 00:29:58,210
You need to adhere.

604
00:29:58,370 --> 00:29:59,490
You need to be submissive.

605
00:29:59,930 --> 00:30:07,510
Because if you add to my words, God's

606
00:30:07,510 --> 00:30:08,910
wrath will come upon you.

607
00:30:09,510 --> 00:30:12,110
And if you subtract from my words, your

608
00:30:12,110 --> 00:30:14,670
name will be wiped from the book of

609
00:30:14,670 --> 00:30:17,570
life, from the holy city, the heavenly Jerusalem,

610
00:30:17,910 --> 00:30:20,990
the kingdom of God, and from the prophecy

611
00:30:20,990 --> 00:30:23,110
of this very book.

612
00:30:24,510 --> 00:30:28,630
All the blessings I've given, all the blessings

613
00:30:28,630 --> 00:30:31,410
I promised, you will not receive if you

614
00:30:31,410 --> 00:30:31,670
subtract.

615
00:30:32,150 --> 00:30:35,350
But if you add to my words, the

616
00:30:35,350 --> 00:30:36,710
wrath of God will come upon you.

617
00:30:37,610 --> 00:30:39,430
Now, here's a question to all of us.

618
00:30:40,430 --> 00:30:42,610
Who added to the word of God?

619
00:30:42,870 --> 00:30:46,150
And who subtracted from the word of God?

620
00:30:46,510 --> 00:30:51,800
If you tell me, I'll cook you red

621
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,820
rice, a Syrian baby.

622
00:30:55,540 --> 00:30:57,560
Who added to the word of God and

623
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,220
who subtracted from the word of God?

624
00:30:59,620 --> 00:30:59,880
Two.

625
00:31:00,860 --> 00:31:03,080
One, our mother Eve.

626
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,400
Second, Satan.

627
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,400
Our mother Eve added to the word of

628
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:10,680
God.

629
00:31:11,300 --> 00:31:14,900
Satan subtracted, took away from the word of

630
00:31:14,900 --> 00:31:15,140
God.

631
00:31:16,140 --> 00:31:20,260
Now, when God came to Adam and said

632
00:31:20,260 --> 00:31:23,860
to Adam, from the tree of the knowledge

633
00:31:23,860 --> 00:31:25,960
of good and evil, do not eat.

634
00:31:27,020 --> 00:31:29,740
God said to Adam, from the tree of

635
00:31:29,740 --> 00:31:31,840
the knowledge of good and evil, do not

636
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:32,280
eat.

637
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,940
When our mother Eve was walking alone in

638
00:31:35,940 --> 00:31:38,820
the garden of Eden, Satan came in the

639
00:31:38,820 --> 00:31:42,020
form of a serpent and whispered in the

640
00:31:42,020 --> 00:31:46,640
ears of our mother Eve and said, did

641
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,780
God truly say, don't eat from this tree?

642
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:52,220
She said, yes.

643
00:31:52,460 --> 00:31:56,020
God said, don't eat, don't touch.

644
00:32:03,470 --> 00:32:07,870
God said, do not eat only.

645
00:32:08,130 --> 00:32:09,710
God never said, do not touch.

646
00:32:10,930 --> 00:32:12,930
So, where did he get this word from?

647
00:32:13,250 --> 00:32:14,130
Your own head.

648
00:32:14,910 --> 00:32:17,150
You added to the word of God.

649
00:32:19,130 --> 00:32:20,930
If you add to the word of God,

650
00:32:21,930 --> 00:32:24,550
the wrath of God will come upon you.

651
00:32:26,450 --> 00:32:32,880
To every beloved daughter of mine, my beloved

652
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,880
daughter, when the time comes to give birth,

653
00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:38,040
do you laugh?

654
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:40,400
Are you happy?

655
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,860
Or are you screaming from pain and agony?

656
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,020
That's the wrath of God.

657
00:32:52,980 --> 00:32:55,020
You give birth with pain.

658
00:32:58,650 --> 00:33:02,070
Could God have made birth be easy and

659
00:33:02,070 --> 00:33:02,830
with no pain?

660
00:33:03,070 --> 00:33:03,270
Yes.

661
00:33:04,250 --> 00:33:06,030
But you added to the word of God.

662
00:33:08,330 --> 00:33:11,230
Every word is said in this book is

663
00:33:11,230 --> 00:33:11,750
the truth.

664
00:33:13,350 --> 00:33:14,830
So, don't take it lightly.

665
00:33:15,150 --> 00:33:18,050
Take it seriously, because if you play with

666
00:33:18,050 --> 00:33:19,530
it, you will hurt yourself.

667
00:33:20,390 --> 00:33:22,950
You add to the word of God, the

668
00:33:22,950 --> 00:33:24,250
wrath of God will come upon you.

669
00:33:25,050 --> 00:33:27,510
Our mother Eve said, yeah, God said, don't

670
00:33:27,510 --> 00:33:28,770
touch and don't eat.

671
00:33:28,870 --> 00:33:30,930
But poor God, he only said, don't eat.

672
00:33:31,290 --> 00:33:32,590
He didn't say, don't touch.

673
00:33:33,350 --> 00:33:34,810
Don't add to the word of God.

674
00:33:35,310 --> 00:33:36,310
Now we come to Satan.

675
00:33:36,450 --> 00:33:38,070
He subtracted from the word of God.

676
00:33:40,290 --> 00:33:43,630
Did he say, now Satan is whispering in

677
00:33:43,630 --> 00:33:46,730
Eve's ear, did God really say, if you

678
00:33:46,730 --> 00:33:47,950
eat from it, you will die?

679
00:33:49,630 --> 00:33:50,490
He said, yes.

680
00:33:50,710 --> 00:33:53,070
He said, trust me, you will never die.

681
00:33:54,250 --> 00:33:54,930
You will not die.

682
00:33:55,050 --> 00:33:55,550
Trust me.

683
00:33:56,170 --> 00:33:58,550
But you will know what is good and

684
00:33:58,550 --> 00:33:59,050
what is evil.

685
00:33:59,150 --> 00:34:00,190
That's what will happen to you.

686
00:34:00,570 --> 00:34:01,930
You will know what is good and what

687
00:34:01,930 --> 00:34:03,310
is evil, but you will not die.

688
00:34:03,750 --> 00:34:05,310
But God said, if you eat, you will

689
00:34:05,310 --> 00:34:05,610
die.

690
00:34:06,050 --> 00:34:07,790
Satan said, you will not die.

691
00:34:08,110 --> 00:34:10,530
He subtracted from the word of God.

692
00:34:11,330 --> 00:34:13,889
The name of Satan was removed from the

693
00:34:13,889 --> 00:34:15,949
book of life, from the holy city, the

694
00:34:15,949 --> 00:34:18,409
kingdom of God, and from every prophecy and

695
00:34:18,409 --> 00:34:20,570
every blessing that is mentioned in this book.

696
00:34:20,850 --> 00:34:23,090
Satan will never make it to God's kingdom

697
00:34:23,090 --> 00:34:24,889
ever, ever again.

698
00:34:25,510 --> 00:34:26,850
He's dead forever.

699
00:34:27,929 --> 00:34:29,690
If you subtract, your name will be wiped

700
00:34:29,690 --> 00:34:30,790
from the book of life.

701
00:34:31,090 --> 00:34:34,330
Satan, who was an angel before, got wiped

702
00:34:34,330 --> 00:34:38,710
from heaven, from everything, because he subtracted.

703
00:34:39,730 --> 00:34:42,870
So now my beloveds, and everybody's hearing here,

704
00:34:44,170 --> 00:34:48,690
don't add, don't subtract, when you come to

705
00:34:48,690 --> 00:34:49,750
talk about the Lord Jesus.

706
00:34:51,130 --> 00:34:55,030
And this is my, out of love and

707
00:34:55,030 --> 00:34:57,870
humility, I invite you all to come back

708
00:34:57,870 --> 00:34:59,010
to the apostolic church.

709
00:35:00,670 --> 00:35:05,050
Don't teach any foreign teachings.

710
00:35:07,730 --> 00:35:09,350
Don't teach any foreign teachings.

711
00:35:09,450 --> 00:35:11,070
When the Lord says, this bread is my

712
00:35:11,070 --> 00:35:14,410
body, and this wine is my blood, don't

713
00:35:14,410 --> 00:35:15,090
say it's not.

714
00:35:18,150 --> 00:35:20,550
Because every word the Lord says is the

715
00:35:20,550 --> 00:35:20,890
truth.

716
00:35:22,090 --> 00:35:27,480
If you add and subtract, if you add,

717
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,040
the wrath of God will come upon you.

718
00:35:29,140 --> 00:35:31,560
If you subtract, your name will be wiped

719
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:32,740
from the book of life.

720
00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:36,680
One thing about the Lord Jesus, he's got

721
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,620
a beautiful sense of humor, but he never

722
00:35:38,620 --> 00:35:39,060
jokes.

723
00:35:40,820 --> 00:35:42,080
He doesn't joke.

724
00:35:42,500 --> 00:35:45,380
He is always serious, but with a nice

725
00:35:45,380 --> 00:35:48,040
gesture, because he's God.

726
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:50,560
He can't joke.

727
00:35:51,540 --> 00:35:56,060
Everything is accounted for, and everything he is

728
00:35:56,060 --> 00:35:57,080
responsible for.

729
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,440
Whatever he says, he is now responsible for

730
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:01,120
whatever he says.

731
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,940
He is held liable for whatever he says.

732
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,640
That's why God doesn't talk much.

733
00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:08,540
God is infinite until he talks.

734
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:10,980
That's a bit of a philosophy there for

735
00:36:10,980 --> 00:36:11,180
you.

736
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:13,800
God is infinite until he talks, because the

737
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,760
moment he talks, he is now limited to

738
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:18,940
what he says, in the sense of, he

739
00:36:18,940 --> 00:36:20,620
must fulfill what he says.

740
00:36:21,780 --> 00:36:24,140
But until he speaks, he is infinite.

741
00:36:24,580 --> 00:36:27,160
The moment he speaks, he's limited to what

742
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,580
he says, because he must do it.

743
00:36:29,980 --> 00:36:31,700
Otherwise, he's not God.

744
00:36:32,100 --> 00:36:34,660
So therefore, my beloved, God will never joke.

745
00:36:35,260 --> 00:36:37,140
God is always serious, but he's got a

746
00:36:37,140 --> 00:36:39,800
great sense of humor at the same time.

747
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,080
Amazing in every way, in every form or

748
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:44,580
shape, the Lord is.

749
00:36:46,020 --> 00:36:48,300
So Satan, poor thing, he subtracted from the

750
00:36:48,300 --> 00:36:48,880
word of God.

751
00:36:49,340 --> 00:36:51,800
His name was wiped from heaven, from the

752
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,160
book of life, from everything.

753
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:05,280
He who testifies to these things, surely I'm

754
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:06,040
coming quickly.

755
00:37:08,700 --> 00:37:11,840
He who testifies to these things says, surely

756
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:12,780
I'm coming quickly.

757
00:37:13,100 --> 00:37:14,840
Who testifies to these things?

758
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,760
The Lord Jesus.

759
00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:17,920
Since the Lord Jesus is the one who

760
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:22,560
testifies to all these things, every word written

761
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,020
in the entire Holy Bible, the Lord is

762
00:37:25,020 --> 00:37:26,840
testifying of.

763
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,540
Since he is the one who's testifying, he's

764
00:37:29,540 --> 00:37:30,840
saying, I'm coming quickly.

765
00:37:31,140 --> 00:37:34,140
I'm coming quickly in verse 20, is the

766
00:37:34,140 --> 00:37:36,920
reply of the Lord Jesus to the Holy

767
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,260
Spirit and the bride in verse 17.

768
00:37:39,540 --> 00:37:42,100
The Spirit and the bride say, come.

769
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,980
And the Lord in verse 20 says, since

770
00:37:44,980 --> 00:37:48,100
you asked me to come, I'm coming quickly.

771
00:37:50,010 --> 00:37:54,910
I'm coming quickly because my beloved, love is

772
00:37:54,910 --> 00:37:56,010
a two-way street.

773
00:37:57,630 --> 00:38:00,310
If love happens to be a one-way

774
00:38:00,310 --> 00:38:02,330
street, is a selfish love.

775
00:38:02,630 --> 00:38:04,730
Therefore, it is fake.

776
00:38:05,570 --> 00:38:06,270
It is fake.

777
00:38:06,270 --> 00:38:09,650
Don't call this love anymore.

778
00:38:10,110 --> 00:38:13,190
It is a selfish love, which is no

779
00:38:13,190 --> 00:38:14,110
love at all.

780
00:38:14,670 --> 00:38:17,270
True love, which is the only love in

781
00:38:17,270 --> 00:38:20,530
existence, the true love must be a two

782
00:38:20,530 --> 00:38:21,190
-way street.

783
00:38:23,240 --> 00:38:25,860
If you don't long for the one you

784
00:38:25,860 --> 00:38:29,360
love, and if the one who loves you

785
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,140
does not long to come quickly to see

786
00:38:32,140 --> 00:38:33,920
you, then it's not a genuine love.

787
00:38:35,260 --> 00:38:37,020
If you don't long for the one you

788
00:38:37,020 --> 00:38:38,780
love that you want him to come quickly,

789
00:38:39,820 --> 00:38:40,520
that's no love.

790
00:38:40,740 --> 00:38:42,600
And if the one who's coming doesn't come

791
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,420
quickly, then that is no love either.

792
00:38:45,540 --> 00:38:47,280
See, it's going to come both ways.

793
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,160
When I call the Lord and I say,

794
00:38:49,240 --> 00:38:51,780
Lord, I need you desperately, please come now.

795
00:38:52,300 --> 00:38:56,920
The Lord comes now because his love for

796
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:58,480
me is genuine.

797
00:38:59,240 --> 00:39:01,460
And he taught me how to love him

798
00:39:01,460 --> 00:39:03,620
back in a genuine way.

799
00:39:06,780 --> 00:39:10,060
Now, the question is to all of us

800
00:39:10,060 --> 00:39:15,230
here, my beloved, for all of us, who

801
00:39:15,230 --> 00:39:19,170
is your love in this world, in this

802
00:39:19,170 --> 00:39:19,590
life?

803
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:27,080
Some people might say, Elizabeth, John.

804
00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:30,360
Some people might say, my business.

805
00:39:31,460 --> 00:39:33,840
Some people might say, my Ferrari.

806
00:39:34,740 --> 00:39:41,640
Some people say, my looks, my wealth, my

807
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,180
name, my fame.

808
00:39:45,660 --> 00:39:49,020
What is your, what is and who is

809
00:39:49,020 --> 00:39:49,500
your love?

810
00:39:51,060 --> 00:39:55,700
As a Christian, we should have only one

811
00:39:55,700 --> 00:39:59,280
love, and that is the Lord Jesus.

812
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,780
And through the Lord, we love everyone else.

813
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,160
If you love anyone outside of the Lord

814
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,520
Jesus, it's not a genuine love.

815
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:15,200
Because there is no other source where love

816
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,160
is found to be the truth, all except

817
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,560
in Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

818
00:40:19,780 --> 00:40:22,260
He is the only source where love is

819
00:40:22,260 --> 00:40:22,680
genuine.

820
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,420
So unless you go through that source, through

821
00:40:26,420 --> 00:40:29,740
that channel, through that way, the love is

822
00:40:29,740 --> 00:40:30,120
fake.

823
00:40:30,940 --> 00:40:33,420
And since it's fake, it will not last,

824
00:40:34,340 --> 00:40:34,960
no matter what.

825
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,500
Everything will fade away and disappear.

826
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,480
Only one will remain forever, Jesus Christ of

827
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,120
Nazareth, who is God revealed in the flesh,

828
00:40:47,380 --> 00:40:48,680
who happens to be love.

829
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,000
So when we are focused on the Lord

830
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:58,340
Jesus, when we make him our true love,

831
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,560
then I need to long for him.

832
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:03,640
Lord, I miss you.

833
00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:05,560
Lord, I need you.

834
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,880
Lord, I'm searching for you everywhere.

835
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:10,580
Please come.

836
00:41:11,240 --> 00:41:12,400
Don't leave me alone.

837
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:14,920
I feel so lonely.

838
00:41:15,540 --> 00:41:18,000
I feel so alone when you go quiet

839
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:18,980
on me, Lord Jesus.

840
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:31,500
I wanted to say something, but I don't

841
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:32,200
scare you.

842
00:41:35,620 --> 00:41:37,240
I'll put it in this way.

843
00:41:39,180 --> 00:41:41,920
Don't ever, and I'm saying it out of

844
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:48,400
love and humility, don't ever put anything nor

845
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,020
anyone before the Lord Jesus.

846
00:41:51,380 --> 00:41:52,300
Don't ever do that.

847
00:41:53,020 --> 00:41:55,840
If you do that, you will lose that

848
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,240
thing, guaranteed.

849
00:42:02,450 --> 00:42:03,490
I'll say it again.

850
00:42:04,270 --> 00:42:09,030
Don't ever put anything nor anyone before the

851
00:42:09,030 --> 00:42:09,550
Lord Jesus.

852
00:42:10,490 --> 00:42:12,250
And if you do that and insist on

853
00:42:12,250 --> 00:42:15,810
it, you will lose that thing that you

854
00:42:15,810 --> 00:42:16,590
put before the Lord.

855
00:42:16,970 --> 00:42:17,610
You know why?

856
00:42:17,910 --> 00:42:20,670
Because the Lord naturally is number one.

857
00:42:21,750 --> 00:42:23,490
He doesn't need to work for it.

858
00:42:23,490 --> 00:42:25,490
He doesn't need to beg for it.

859
00:42:25,710 --> 00:42:27,930
He doesn't need to make it happen.

860
00:42:28,030 --> 00:42:29,730
It just naturally is.

861
00:42:31,070 --> 00:42:33,110
He will always be the first and the

862
00:42:33,110 --> 00:42:33,390
last.

863
00:42:33,710 --> 00:42:35,830
He will always be the alpha and the

864
00:42:35,830 --> 00:42:36,190
omega.

865
00:42:36,490 --> 00:42:38,210
He will always be the beginning and the

866
00:42:38,210 --> 00:42:38,430
end.

867
00:42:38,610 --> 00:42:41,490
You put anyone before the beginning, won't work.

868
00:42:41,790 --> 00:42:44,510
You put anyone before the alpha, won't work.

869
00:42:44,770 --> 00:42:47,790
You put anyone before the first, there is

870
00:42:47,790 --> 00:42:50,110
no one before the first, because the first

871
00:42:50,110 --> 00:42:52,090
comes naturally first.

872
00:42:52,690 --> 00:42:58,110
The A comes naturally first, and the beginning

873
00:42:58,110 --> 00:42:59,410
comes naturally first.

874
00:43:00,450 --> 00:43:01,290
Won't work.

875
00:43:02,890 --> 00:43:03,930
Actually, I'll say it.

876
00:43:06,310 --> 00:43:10,510
Our father Abraham learned this lesson the hard

877
00:43:10,510 --> 00:43:10,890
way.

878
00:43:12,450 --> 00:43:15,930
Learned this very lesson the hard way thousands

879
00:43:15,930 --> 00:43:17,410
of years ago.

880
00:43:17,930 --> 00:43:18,830
What was the lesson?

881
00:43:19,910 --> 00:43:22,690
God came to our father Abraham.

882
00:43:22,830 --> 00:43:24,170
His name was Abram.

883
00:43:24,630 --> 00:43:25,690
You see, when you go back to the

884
00:43:25,690 --> 00:43:29,250
original text, Hebrew or Syriac, Aramaic, you'll understand

885
00:43:29,250 --> 00:43:32,750
the meaning of the name and the component

886
00:43:32,750 --> 00:43:33,550
of the name.

887
00:43:33,630 --> 00:43:35,930
You'll understand it much more clearer than when

888
00:43:35,930 --> 00:43:37,230
you read it in English or in Arabic

889
00:43:37,230 --> 00:43:40,130
or in any other language, because that's how

890
00:43:40,130 --> 00:43:41,630
it was in the original text.

891
00:43:42,470 --> 00:43:45,190
So when you go to our father Abraham,

892
00:43:45,370 --> 00:43:48,250
who was Abram at the time, when he

893
00:43:48,250 --> 00:43:51,430
was still in Babylon, Mesopotamia, Iraq, where I

894
00:43:51,430 --> 00:43:51,970
come from.

895
00:43:52,310 --> 00:43:53,270
Hello, Habibi.

896
00:43:54,690 --> 00:43:55,030
Hello.

897
00:43:56,250 --> 00:43:58,610
So Abraham comes from where I come.

898
00:43:58,690 --> 00:43:59,570
Hello, hello, hello.

899
00:44:04,710 --> 00:44:09,370
God went to Abram and he said, get

900
00:44:09,370 --> 00:44:14,990
up, leave your family, leave your country, leave

901
00:44:14,990 --> 00:44:18,030
your home town and come and follow me.

902
00:44:18,410 --> 00:44:19,390
I will lead you.

903
00:44:19,490 --> 00:44:22,030
I'll take you to the land where it

904
00:44:22,030 --> 00:44:24,810
brings forth honey and milk, milk and honey.

905
00:44:25,030 --> 00:44:26,630
I'll bring you to the promised land.

906
00:44:27,210 --> 00:44:30,390
Abram got up, believed in the voice he

907
00:44:30,390 --> 00:44:30,710
heard.

908
00:44:30,850 --> 00:44:33,350
He believed in just hearing the voice.

909
00:44:33,690 --> 00:44:36,830
He trusted that this voice is of God's.

910
00:44:38,030 --> 00:44:40,170
But what was Abram's mistake?

911
00:44:40,650 --> 00:44:42,050
He went to his dad.

912
00:44:43,890 --> 00:44:47,010
He said, dad, I heard a voice the

913
00:44:47,010 --> 00:44:49,030
other day and I believe it's the voice

914
00:44:49,030 --> 00:44:50,470
of God, the true living God.

915
00:44:50,730 --> 00:44:52,790
And he said to me, leave your home,

916
00:44:53,110 --> 00:44:55,570
leave your family and leave your land, leave

917
00:44:55,570 --> 00:44:57,030
your country and follow me.

918
00:44:57,090 --> 00:44:58,470
I'll take you to the promised land.

919
00:44:58,910 --> 00:45:01,830
So dad, I came to tell you I'm

920
00:45:01,830 --> 00:45:04,090
going to leave, but I couldn't leave without

921
00:45:04,090 --> 00:45:04,910
letting you know.

922
00:45:05,730 --> 00:45:07,030
Would you like to come with me, dad?

923
00:45:07,970 --> 00:45:11,430
And dad said, that's what a son, a

924
00:45:11,430 --> 00:45:12,330
true son is all about.

925
00:45:12,430 --> 00:45:13,050
Well done, son.

926
00:45:13,170 --> 00:45:14,430
Look how much you love your dad.

927
00:45:14,810 --> 00:45:15,610
Good on you, mate.

928
00:45:16,330 --> 00:45:17,150
Tip top, so on.

929
00:45:19,750 --> 00:45:21,190
Thank you, son, for letting me know.

930
00:45:21,510 --> 00:45:22,090
Let's go.

931
00:45:22,370 --> 00:45:24,130
And then Abram adds to it.

932
00:45:24,510 --> 00:45:26,630
He said, dad, how about loot?

933
00:45:28,890 --> 00:45:30,310
Your brother's son.

934
00:45:35,660 --> 00:45:36,540
I'm sorry.

935
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:38,320
How about loot?

936
00:45:38,940 --> 00:45:41,620
My nephew, Abram, your grandchild.

937
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,380
So loot was Abram's nephew.

938
00:45:48,720 --> 00:45:50,980
He said, dad, we can't leave loot.

939
00:45:51,060 --> 00:45:51,260
Why?

940
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:52,660
Because his father died.

941
00:45:53,100 --> 00:45:55,400
So Abram's brother was dead at the time.

942
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,600
So his dad died and he's now alone.

943
00:45:58,700 --> 00:45:59,760
If we leave him, he's going to be

944
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:00,200
an orphan.

945
00:46:00,340 --> 00:46:01,200
No father, no mother.

946
00:46:02,460 --> 00:46:03,480
I don't have a son.

947
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:04,420
Abram was married.

948
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:05,520
I don't have a son.

949
00:46:05,780 --> 00:46:06,980
So I'll make him my son.

950
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:08,480
I'll adopt him as my own son.

951
00:46:09,420 --> 00:46:11,080
There is no difference between an uncle and

952
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:11,480
a father.

953
00:46:11,940 --> 00:46:13,120
The blood is too close.

954
00:46:13,540 --> 00:46:14,400
No difference.

955
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:15,420
I'm his uncle.

956
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:16,680
Therefore, I'm his father.

957
00:46:16,980 --> 00:46:19,460
Since his father, biological father, is dead, then

958
00:46:19,460 --> 00:46:20,300
I become his father.

959
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,320
Abram's father said, now I love you twice

960
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:24,740
more.

961
00:46:26,620 --> 00:46:31,460
He leaves with his family, with his dad,

962
00:46:32,180 --> 00:46:35,040
with his nephew, and they go.

963
00:46:35,180 --> 00:46:38,900
The Lord God said to Abram, get up

964
00:46:38,900 --> 00:46:39,820
and follow me.

965
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:45,200
He took 70 families with him.

966
00:46:51,890 --> 00:46:54,930
They come to a place on the border

967
00:46:54,930 --> 00:46:57,210
of Jordan and Israel.

968
00:46:59,270 --> 00:47:04,210
God makes Abram and all his family to

969
00:47:04,210 --> 00:47:08,390
stay in that place for 15 years.

970
00:47:09,730 --> 00:47:11,650
They did not move because God did not

971
00:47:11,650 --> 00:47:12,110
order him.

972
00:47:12,290 --> 00:47:13,790
But God was going to take him to

973
00:47:13,790 --> 00:47:14,430
the promised land.

974
00:47:14,750 --> 00:47:17,330
That was not definitely the promised land, wasn't.

975
00:47:17,690 --> 00:47:20,070
But God made him stay 15 years.

976
00:47:20,130 --> 00:47:20,570
You know why?

977
00:47:20,570 --> 00:47:25,110
Because God waited for Abram's dad to die

978
00:47:25,110 --> 00:47:26,850
and be buried.

979
00:47:29,010 --> 00:47:33,250
When the moment Abram's father died and was

980
00:47:33,250 --> 00:47:35,870
buried in that place, the second day God

981
00:47:35,870 --> 00:47:37,130
came to Abram and said, move.

982
00:47:38,050 --> 00:47:38,610
Come now.

983
00:47:39,390 --> 00:47:40,270
After 15 years.

984
00:47:41,590 --> 00:47:43,050
And then they went to another place.

985
00:47:43,770 --> 00:47:48,390
And then Abram had his own shepherds and

986
00:47:48,390 --> 00:47:49,110
his own flock.

987
00:47:49,630 --> 00:47:52,410
Lod had his own shepherds and his own

988
00:47:52,410 --> 00:47:52,750
flock.

989
00:47:53,150 --> 00:47:55,670
And one day the flock of Abram and

990
00:47:55,670 --> 00:47:58,290
the flock of Lod mixed together and the

991
00:47:58,290 --> 00:48:01,330
shepherds started fighting against each other saying, this

992
00:48:01,330 --> 00:48:03,370
is my land, this is my land, this

993
00:48:03,370 --> 00:48:05,210
is my territory, this is my territory.

994
00:48:05,510 --> 00:48:08,190
Abram came to Lod and he said, look,

995
00:48:08,330 --> 00:48:09,290
we are family.

996
00:48:09,570 --> 00:48:12,170
We should never let strangers come between us

997
00:48:12,170 --> 00:48:13,290
and separate us.

998
00:48:13,630 --> 00:48:15,090
And this is a signal to all of

999
00:48:15,090 --> 00:48:15,290
us.

1000
00:48:15,410 --> 00:48:18,310
Don't ever let strangers come between family members

1001
00:48:18,310 --> 00:48:19,430
and separate them.

1002
00:48:19,550 --> 00:48:22,930
My son, don't ever let your friends separate

1003
00:48:22,930 --> 00:48:24,250
you from your brother and your sister.

1004
00:48:24,530 --> 00:48:27,730
My daughter, don't ever let your friends separate

1005
00:48:27,730 --> 00:48:29,690
you from your dad, from your mom, from

1006
00:48:29,690 --> 00:48:32,970
your siblings, because they are strangers when it

1007
00:48:32,970 --> 00:48:34,230
comes to your own family.

1008
00:48:34,950 --> 00:48:35,970
Don't ever do that.

1009
00:48:36,750 --> 00:48:37,650
Family comes first.

1010
00:48:41,420 --> 00:48:44,500
So Abram called Lod being the uncle, the

1011
00:48:44,500 --> 00:48:44,960
oldest.

1012
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:47,660
He said, look, we are family.

1013
00:48:48,140 --> 00:48:50,340
Don't let strangers come between us.

1014
00:48:50,940 --> 00:48:53,720
Therefore, I'll give you, Lod, the first preference.

1015
00:48:54,220 --> 00:48:57,300
Look around and choose a land and God

1016
00:48:57,300 --> 00:48:57,860
be with you.

1017
00:48:58,780 --> 00:49:01,940
Lod looked around and his eyes fell on

1018
00:49:01,940 --> 00:49:04,760
this green lush land, waters, rivers of waters

1019
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:05,600
gushing through it.

1020
00:49:05,860 --> 00:49:07,320
He said, this land is going to be

1021
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,400
good for me, for my family and for

1022
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:09,900
my flock.

1023
00:49:10,140 --> 00:49:12,500
He goes there and it ended up being

1024
00:49:12,500 --> 00:49:13,620
Sodom and Gomorrah.

1025
00:49:15,620 --> 00:49:16,140
LGBTQRSTU.

1026
00:49:17,620 --> 00:49:18,560
Sodom and Gomorrah.

1027
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,480
Lod got separated from Abram.

1028
00:49:23,240 --> 00:49:26,880
It was then and then only God took

1029
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:28,500
Abram to the promised land.

1030
00:49:29,500 --> 00:49:32,560
But it took many years.

1031
00:49:33,260 --> 00:49:35,660
It would have taken a few weeks for

1032
00:49:35,660 --> 00:49:37,160
Abram to get to the promised land.

1033
00:49:37,620 --> 00:49:39,140
It took years and years.

1034
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:39,720
Why?

1035
00:49:40,100 --> 00:49:43,580
Because Abram did not adhere fully to the

1036
00:49:43,580 --> 00:49:45,360
voice of God when he said to him,

1037
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:47,440
you, Abram, follow me.

1038
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:48,960
Don't bring me the family.

1039
00:49:49,500 --> 00:49:51,760
You put dad before me, I'll take him.

1040
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,180
You put your nephew before me, I'll take

1041
00:49:54,180 --> 00:49:54,320
him.

1042
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,460
You put anyone before me, I'll take.

1043
00:49:56,760 --> 00:50:00,780
Until you make me, I, God, the first

1044
00:50:00,780 --> 00:50:02,080
and the last in your life.

1045
00:50:07,350 --> 00:50:11,690
You put God first, he will give you

1046
00:50:11,690 --> 00:50:12,110
everything.

1047
00:50:13,050 --> 00:50:16,690
Family and everything the family needs.

1048
00:50:20,140 --> 00:50:21,940
It's not that God has taken the family

1049
00:50:21,940 --> 00:50:24,540
when you are putting that family before him.

1050
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:25,200
No.

1051
00:50:25,900 --> 00:50:29,060
But the protection, the blessings are gone.

1052
00:50:29,720 --> 00:50:32,980
You cannot protect your family as a man

1053
00:50:32,980 --> 00:50:33,700
without God.

1054
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:37,900
So you need him first in order to

1055
00:50:37,900 --> 00:50:38,420
protect you.

1056
00:50:39,240 --> 00:50:41,540
If you put yourself before him, the Lord

1057
00:50:41,540 --> 00:50:43,760
says, well, I'm not the protector you are,

1058
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:45,420
so I'll leave you to it and let

1059
00:50:45,420 --> 00:50:46,200
me see what you're going to do.

1060
00:50:46,460 --> 00:50:48,580
Before you blink your eyes, my son, Satan

1061
00:50:48,580 --> 00:50:51,360
would have devoured you and your family with

1062
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:51,600
you.

1063
00:50:53,260 --> 00:50:56,700
The only one who overcame Satan is Jesus

1064
00:50:56,700 --> 00:50:58,420
Christ of Nazareth, period.

1065
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,620
You can't fight unless you are embedded in

1066
00:51:01,620 --> 00:51:01,980
Christ.

1067
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,900
And to be embedded, put him first, always.

1068
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,320
You can't do it, ask for his help.

1069
00:51:10,740 --> 00:51:12,160
Lord, I'm weak.

1070
00:51:12,660 --> 00:51:16,880
Please give me the strength, the wisdom, the

1071
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:17,960
courage, the grace.

1072
00:51:18,580 --> 00:51:21,080
Give me, give me whatever I need so

1073
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:22,660
I can always make you first, Lord.

1074
00:51:24,740 --> 00:51:25,580
And I'll be last.

1075
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:28,860
You lead, I follow, Lord Jesus.

1076
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:35,700
So, and he's saying, he who testifies to

1077
00:51:35,700 --> 00:51:38,040
these things says, surely I'm coming quickly.

1078
00:51:38,540 --> 00:51:40,160
Why is the Lord Jesus coming quickly?

1079
00:51:40,240 --> 00:51:41,260
Because he loves us.

1080
00:51:41,620 --> 00:51:43,680
He is the heavenly groom and he cannot

1081
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,460
wait to be with his beloved bride, which

1082
00:51:46,460 --> 00:51:47,200
is the church.

1083
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,860
When the couple stand before the holy altar

1084
00:51:51,860 --> 00:51:55,660
and the priesthood rank, the groom can't wait

1085
00:51:55,660 --> 00:51:57,240
for the priest to be finished.

1086
00:51:57,380 --> 00:51:58,360
Come on, Father.

1087
00:51:58,740 --> 00:52:01,520
And if it's the bishop, Bishop Murray, I

1088
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,960
says, man, if you don't be quiet, I'm

1089
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,720
taking my sweetheart and I'm walking away because

1090
00:52:07,720 --> 00:52:11,180
I can't wait to be alone with the

1091
00:52:11,180 --> 00:52:13,420
love of my life.

1092
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:20,740
It's that intimate moment where you don't allow

1093
00:52:20,740 --> 00:52:23,860
nobody to come and interfere between the two

1094
00:52:23,860 --> 00:52:24,200
of you.

1095
00:52:25,720 --> 00:52:28,660
This is how the Lord waits for every

1096
00:52:28,660 --> 00:52:29,460
single one of us.

1097
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:35,080
He is dying to spend time with every

1098
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,440
single one of you and one of us.

1099
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:38,160
He's dying.

1100
00:52:38,780 --> 00:52:42,160
He can't wait for the moment when you

1101
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:43,420
say, Lord, I need you.

1102
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:45,280
He can't wait for that moment.

1103
00:52:45,720 --> 00:52:47,080
He comes running quickly.

1104
00:52:48,020 --> 00:52:48,860
He comes flying.

1105
00:52:50,580 --> 00:52:52,260
Before you blink your eyes, he's there.

1106
00:52:53,220 --> 00:52:54,320
Yes, my child.

1107
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:56,100
I am all ears.

1108
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:58,500
Please entertain me.

1109
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:10,140
The ultimate name God wishes for us human

1110
00:53:10,140 --> 00:53:12,720
beings to call him is Father.

1111
00:53:13,420 --> 00:53:17,140
The ultimate name is Father.

1112
00:53:18,340 --> 00:53:22,480
There is no more precious name God wishes

1113
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:25,480
to be called by his own children, but

1114
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:26,600
the name of Father.

1115
00:53:27,620 --> 00:53:31,860
And Father was taught in Aramaic, which is

1116
00:53:31,860 --> 00:53:36,260
the slang language of that language is slang.

1117
00:53:36,620 --> 00:53:40,800
So Abon Beshmeyo, the Lord's Prayer, our Father

1118
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:45,400
who art in heaven, or Abon Beshmeyo, the

1119
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:49,540
literal transliteration of the word Abon or Awon

1120
00:53:49,540 --> 00:53:53,400
in Aramaic should say in our daddy who

1121
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:55,680
art in heaven, not father, because father is

1122
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,180
the formal way of referring to that.

1123
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,000
But daddy is the informal way.

1124
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:05,140
And so true, because you'll never address your

1125
00:54:05,140 --> 00:54:09,600
father formally, you will always address him informally.

1126
00:54:09,980 --> 00:54:12,520
The only way you are formal is with

1127
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:13,380
total strangers.

1128
00:54:13,780 --> 00:54:15,660
But when it is family, there is no

1129
00:54:15,660 --> 00:54:16,380
formalities.

1130
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,400
Otherwise, it is hell living in that house.

1131
00:54:21,780 --> 00:54:23,300
I imagine you get up in the morning

1132
00:54:23,300 --> 00:54:25,400
and say, Good morning, Mr. Smith.

1133
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,820
Mr. Smith, I pray that you had a

1134
00:54:29,820 --> 00:54:31,560
very blessed night's sleep.

1135
00:54:32,180 --> 00:54:34,400
Mr. Smith, can I ask you a question?

1136
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:36,340
Mr. Smith?

1137
00:54:37,780 --> 00:54:40,100
If I see any mercy in your eyes,

1138
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:40,920
can I have $20?

1139
00:54:42,860 --> 00:54:43,780
He'll get up.

1140
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:44,860
Good day, dad.

1141
00:54:45,240 --> 00:54:47,720
You can't make your dad a pinch on

1142
00:54:47,720 --> 00:54:49,320
the cheek that give me 20 bucks.

1143
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:50,380
What is it for, son?

1144
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:51,500
None of your business, dad.

1145
00:54:51,500 --> 00:54:52,140
Just give it, will you?

1146
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:55,840
And two of you go.

1147
00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,520
But when you speak informally, you still respect

1148
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:01,700
him because he's still dad.

1149
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:05,680
You see, speaking informally doesn't mean I lose

1150
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:06,580
track of respect.

1151
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:08,260
He's still my father.

1152
00:55:09,300 --> 00:55:10,440
But there is no formalities.

1153
00:55:11,060 --> 00:55:14,620
The Lord wants it exactly this way.

1154
00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:17,260
Come informally.

1155
00:55:18,540 --> 00:55:21,600
Don't give him an eloquent speech.

1156
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,560
You cannot surpass his wisdom.

1157
00:55:24,020 --> 00:55:24,820
He'll put you to shame.

1158
00:55:25,540 --> 00:55:26,800
Don't give him excuses.

1159
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:28,480
He will put you to shame, and he

1160
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,800
will show your entire life as a movie,

1161
00:55:30,980 --> 00:55:33,600
and he'll tell you every single place you

1162
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:34,280
made a mistake.

1163
00:55:35,420 --> 00:55:36,940
But come as you are and say, Dad,

1164
00:55:39,500 --> 00:55:40,420
I sinned.

1165
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,420
Informally, I stuffed up.

1166
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:46,960
You see, I sinned is a formal way.

1167
00:55:47,660 --> 00:55:51,660
So dad, I really stuffed up badly the

1168
00:55:51,660 --> 00:55:52,500
other day.

1169
00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:57,460
I went with my mates, and those mates

1170
00:55:57,460 --> 00:55:58,340
were not mates.

1171
00:55:59,700 --> 00:56:01,600
So they really ruined me, mate.

1172
00:56:02,540 --> 00:56:05,480
So dad, please, I'm really sorry, dad.

1173
00:56:06,240 --> 00:56:08,020
Please, don't smack me.

1174
00:56:08,720 --> 00:56:09,920
Please, another chance, dad.

1175
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:11,100
I promise you.

1176
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:13,020
I know you love me, dad.

1177
00:56:13,340 --> 00:56:15,160
And you gave me this love.

1178
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:16,740
You showed me this love.

1179
00:56:16,860 --> 00:56:18,280
You taught me this love.

1180
00:56:18,580 --> 00:56:20,940
And with this love, I'm coming to you,

1181
00:56:21,060 --> 00:56:21,240
dad.

1182
00:56:21,540 --> 00:56:24,940
I'm saying, I love you, but I'm weak.

1183
00:56:25,820 --> 00:56:29,240
Simon Peter swore he did not know Jesus

1184
00:56:29,240 --> 00:56:30,260
Christ of Nazareth.

1185
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,740
He swore before a woman, but he cried

1186
00:56:33,740 --> 00:56:34,680
like a baby.

1187
00:56:35,100 --> 00:56:35,300
Why?

1188
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:38,520
Because, Lord, I love you, but I'm weak.

1189
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:40,940
I got scared when I faced death.

1190
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:42,120
I got frightened.

1191
00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:45,760
I wanted to save my life and crucify

1192
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:46,100
you.

1193
00:56:47,140 --> 00:56:48,640
But you know, I love you.

1194
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:51,680
But when you come and be honest to

1195
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:55,140
yourself, with yourself before the Lord, and speak

1196
00:56:55,140 --> 00:56:59,360
informally, rest assured, the Lord will care not

1197
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,980
about your sin as much as he will

1198
00:57:01,980 --> 00:57:04,780
care about the love you have for him.

1199
00:57:06,540 --> 00:57:08,280
And that's where St. Paul says it so

1200
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,660
beautifully in 1 Corinthians 13.

1201
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,220
Love covers a lot of errors.

1202
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:19,360
Love covers a lot of errors.

1203
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,260
The love of Christ for us will cover

1204
00:57:23,260 --> 00:57:25,380
many of our errors.

1205
00:57:28,710 --> 00:57:31,250
I'm coming quickly because I love you, the

1206
00:57:31,250 --> 00:57:31,870
Lord says.

1207
00:57:32,590 --> 00:57:34,790
But are you calling me to come quickly?

1208
00:57:35,690 --> 00:57:37,770
Do you love me the way I love

1209
00:57:37,770 --> 00:57:37,990
you?

1210
00:57:38,550 --> 00:57:41,310
Are you keen to seeing me the way

1211
00:57:41,310 --> 00:57:43,470
I am keen in seeing you?

1212
00:57:44,210 --> 00:57:45,110
Are you longing?

1213
00:57:45,650 --> 00:57:47,450
Are you thirsty for me the way I

1214
00:57:47,450 --> 00:57:48,450
am thirsty for you?

1215
00:57:51,980 --> 00:57:54,280
When you come to me, don't be lethargic.

1216
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:57,400
Come quickly, because when I come to you,

1217
00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,580
I always come running, flying.

1218
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:01,020
I never walk.

1219
00:58:01,660 --> 00:58:04,400
When it comes to you, I don't waste

1220
00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:04,880
a breath.

1221
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:10,120
I'm there instantaneously, because I love you.

1222
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:15,340
Cannot wait to waste a second until I

1223
00:58:15,340 --> 00:58:15,740
see you.

1224
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:21,080
This is the way we need to be

1225
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:21,700
with Christ.

1226
00:58:23,220 --> 00:58:29,840
So now, when you love him, there is

1227
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:31,060
no more timetable.

1228
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:36,880
The timetable is fulfilling a duty, fulfilling an

1229
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:37,380
obligation.

1230
00:58:38,460 --> 00:58:41,860
There is no more, did I go to

1231
00:58:41,860 --> 00:58:43,420
church last Sunday or not?

1232
00:58:43,500 --> 00:58:44,620
Maybe I should go now.

1233
00:58:45,260 --> 00:58:46,960
Did I read the Holy Bible or maybe

1234
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:47,220
not?

1235
00:58:47,300 --> 00:58:48,300
Maybe I should read it now.

1236
00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:49,960
Did I pray or not?

1237
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:51,100
Maybe I should pray now.

1238
00:58:51,660 --> 00:58:53,640
Did I do some charitable deeds or not?

1239
00:58:53,660 --> 00:58:54,760
Maybe I should do it now.

1240
00:58:55,260 --> 00:58:55,880
Did I?

1241
00:58:55,980 --> 00:58:56,180
Did I?

1242
00:58:56,300 --> 00:58:56,460
Did I?

1243
00:58:56,500 --> 00:58:57,240
No more did I.

1244
00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:58,780
It will become natural.

1245
00:58:58,780 --> 00:59:01,140
When I go to church, I go so

1246
00:59:01,140 --> 00:59:03,260
naturally, I don't even think about it.

1247
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,420
My heart leads me to the church, because

1248
00:59:06,420 --> 00:59:09,200
that's where the love of my life is

1249
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:10,640
waiting to see me.

1250
00:59:11,660 --> 00:59:16,240
So I go naturally, and I associate myself

1251
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:19,720
with everything to do with Christ naturally.

1252
00:59:20,820 --> 00:59:22,780
Christ is the life.

1253
00:59:23,460 --> 00:59:27,100
He must be lived, not an obligation fulfilled.

1254
00:59:28,460 --> 00:59:29,280
He's a life.

1255
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:30,620
You need to live it.

1256
00:59:31,180 --> 00:59:33,000
And when it comes to life, do you

1257
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,440
count how many times you've taken breath?

1258
00:59:36,980 --> 00:59:37,860
You don't count.

1259
00:59:38,140 --> 00:59:38,340
Why?

1260
00:59:38,420 --> 00:59:39,120
Because it's life.

1261
00:59:39,420 --> 00:59:40,040
It's natural.

1262
00:59:40,340 --> 00:59:41,220
You don't think about it.

1263
00:59:41,460 --> 00:59:43,220
The Lord says, I am the breath of

1264
00:59:43,220 --> 00:59:43,680
your life.

1265
00:59:44,020 --> 00:59:46,500
Just like you don't count the number of

1266
00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:48,800
breaths you take every single day, you should

1267
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:50,820
never count when it comes to me, and

1268
00:59:50,820 --> 00:59:52,540
you should never look at the time when

1269
00:59:52,540 --> 00:59:53,460
you are in my presence.

1270
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,380
Because when you are with the love of

1271
00:59:55,380 --> 00:59:57,400
your life, the last thing you do is

1272
00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:58,280
you look at the time.

1273
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,120
You don't want the time to take you

1274
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:02,180
away from your sweetheart.

1275
01:00:03,180 --> 01:00:06,760
And this is why Bishop Murray preaches and

1276
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:09,640
never stops talking.

1277
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:14,400
Jesus is the love of my life.

1278
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,840
When I'm in his presence, in his holy

1279
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,720
presence, when I'm talking to him and with

1280
01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:23,880
him and about him, I don't want it

1281
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:24,240
to end.

1282
01:00:25,260 --> 01:00:27,520
I don't have any other love but him.

1283
01:00:29,100 --> 01:00:29,940
I don't.

1284
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:33,880
But I love you all because of him.

1285
01:00:34,780 --> 01:00:37,180
I will die for all of you for

1286
01:00:37,180 --> 01:00:37,680
his sake.

1287
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,380
This is the way we should do it.

1288
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:44,600
That's the right way of doing it.

1289
01:00:46,300 --> 01:00:49,940
Husband and wife, if you love one another

1290
01:00:49,940 --> 01:00:52,560
through Christ, no one can separate you.

1291
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:53,600
No one.

1292
01:00:55,740 --> 01:01:00,020
Family, if you love the Lord and love

1293
01:01:00,020 --> 01:01:02,260
one another through the Lord, that family will

1294
01:01:02,260 --> 01:01:02,900
stand forever.

1295
01:01:04,900 --> 01:01:09,260
Church, from the leaders to the faithfuls, all

1296
01:01:09,260 --> 01:01:09,920
put together.

1297
01:01:10,300 --> 01:01:12,760
If they love the Lord Jesus, nothing can

1298
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:14,280
break the church and divide it.

1299
01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:14,860
Nothing.

1300
01:01:15,820 --> 01:01:18,700
Because when Christ is the captain of the

1301
01:01:18,700 --> 01:01:20,500
ship, it will never sink.

1302
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:22,620
It will never sink.

1303
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,220
No matter how vast the ocean is, but

1304
01:01:25,220 --> 01:01:27,060
the captain is the creator of the ocean.

1305
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:31,320
He can rebuke the ocean and puts it

1306
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:32,140
to calmness.

1307
01:01:41,010 --> 01:01:42,090
We're coming to an end.

1308
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:46,560
Amen.

1309
01:01:46,940 --> 01:01:50,380
Even so come Lord Jesus and whoever hears

1310
01:01:50,380 --> 01:01:51,740
this says amen.

1311
01:01:52,660 --> 01:01:53,920
Please come Lord Jesus.

1312
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,700
We need you Lord because the 21st century

1313
01:01:56,700 --> 01:01:58,340
is walked away from you Lord.

1314
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:00,460
We need you Lord because the world is

1315
01:02:00,460 --> 01:02:01,040
in turmoil.

1316
01:02:01,500 --> 01:02:02,480
The world is blind.

1317
01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:03,780
The world is death.

1318
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:05,100
The world is dead.

1319
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:06,420
The world is dark.

1320
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:07,720
The world is evil.

1321
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:09,240
The church is divided.

1322
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:11,660
Lord Jesus, if there has been a time

1323
01:02:11,660 --> 01:02:13,520
that we needed you the most, it is

1324
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,400
today the 21st century.

1325
01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:18,300
Lord, please come quickly.

1326
01:02:19,180 --> 01:02:21,560
Church leaders going against each other.

1327
01:02:21,780 --> 01:02:23,720
Family going against each other.

1328
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,540
Everywhere there is trouble.

1329
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:26,320
There is war.

1330
01:02:26,420 --> 01:02:27,340
There is bloodshed.

1331
01:02:27,620 --> 01:02:29,940
People have lost the plot.

1332
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,320
The day they lost sight of you Lord,

1333
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:34,740
they lost themselves totally.

1334
01:02:36,770 --> 01:02:37,870
We need you Lord.

1335
01:02:38,170 --> 01:02:40,950
Come quickly and put an end to this

1336
01:02:40,950 --> 01:02:51,000
pain, to this pain, to this chaos, to

1337
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,600
this lostness.

1338
01:02:53,460 --> 01:02:54,360
Put an end Lord.

1339
01:02:58,160 --> 01:02:58,760
Amen.

1340
01:02:59,620 --> 01:03:01,000
So come Lord Jesus.

1341
01:03:01,540 --> 01:03:02,220
We need you.

1342
01:03:08,410 --> 01:03:13,480
I was going to say something but I

1343
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:14,060
want to pinch you.

1344
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:20,820
Verse 21, the end of the chapter, the

1345
01:03:20,820 --> 01:03:22,360
end of the book of Revelation.

1346
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:24,420
Are you going to come next week?

1347
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,920
If you don't come, I have red belt

1348
01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:28,480
in karate.

1349
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:30,060
I taught Bruce Lee.

1350
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,400
I will chop chop you if you don't

1351
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,580
come next week brother and sister.

1352
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:38,100
The aircon is a little bit hot.

1353
01:03:38,260 --> 01:03:40,040
Can we just half a degree make it

1354
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:40,600
cooler please?

1355
01:03:41,780 --> 01:03:44,160
Verse 21 and we'll finish it off.

1356
01:03:50,260 --> 01:03:53,440
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be

1357
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:54,860
with you all.

1358
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:56,100
All.

1359
01:03:56,940 --> 01:03:58,380
Who is saying this?

1360
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:02,400
The Lord gave us this grace and this

1361
01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:03,480
grace is him.

1362
01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:06,940
He is saying I want to be with

1363
01:04:06,940 --> 01:04:07,660
you all.

1364
01:04:08,020 --> 01:04:08,160
Why?

1365
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:10,920
Because I love you and that's why I

1366
01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:12,760
died for you on the cross.

1367
01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:17,900
Death of the cross is the ultimate illustration

1368
01:04:17,900 --> 01:04:19,280
of true love.

1369
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:23,700
When you love someone more than yourself, you

1370
01:04:23,700 --> 01:04:26,380
will put your life for them because their

1371
01:04:26,380 --> 01:04:30,120
life is much more precious than to your

1372
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,960
own life, to your own self.

1373
01:04:33,340 --> 01:04:36,220
That's why Jesus died for us because he

1374
01:04:36,220 --> 01:04:39,260
saw our life was more priceless and precious

1375
01:04:39,260 --> 01:04:40,660
than his own life.

1376
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:42,520
This is why he died.

1377
01:04:43,180 --> 01:04:44,960
The one who died for us, the one

1378
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:46,640
who was buried for us and the one

1379
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:48,260
who rose from the dead on the third

1380
01:04:48,260 --> 01:04:52,500
day, triumphant forever and evermore, living forevermore, the

1381
01:04:52,500 --> 01:04:56,140
true living Messiah forevermore is saying I want

1382
01:04:56,140 --> 01:04:56,680
to be with you.

1383
01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:59,200
I am the grace sent by God to

1384
01:04:59,200 --> 01:04:59,800
all of you.

1385
01:04:59,960 --> 01:05:02,500
I want to be with you all because

1386
01:05:02,500 --> 01:05:03,340
I love you all.

1387
01:05:03,480 --> 01:05:04,520
I don't differentiate.

1388
01:05:04,940 --> 01:05:06,140
I don't have favorites.

1389
01:05:06,460 --> 01:05:09,940
Every single one of you is number one

1390
01:05:09,940 --> 01:05:11,180
in my eyes.

1391
01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:13,160
You all come first.

1392
01:05:13,820 --> 01:05:15,680
There is no first, second, third.

1393
01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:17,340
There is all first.

1394
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:19,980
It is the church of the firstborn.

1395
01:05:21,180 --> 01:05:22,940
It is the church of the firstborn.

1396
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:28,000
So when Simon Peter was baptized first and

1397
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,820
somebody is born today after 2,000 and

1398
01:05:30,820 --> 01:05:34,160
odd years and is baptized now, Simon is

1399
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:37,220
one and this baby baptized today is one,

1400
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:38,960
number one, equal.

1401
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,960
This is the Lord's love for everyone.

1402
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:44,660
All of you are number one.

1403
01:05:47,140 --> 01:05:49,240
That's why I will never lose none of

1404
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:49,440
you.

1405
01:05:49,980 --> 01:05:52,320
I'll fight for every single one of you

1406
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:53,020
equally.

1407
01:05:53,900 --> 01:05:54,540
I will fight.

1408
01:05:57,680 --> 01:05:59,800
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be

1409
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:00,520
with you all.

1410
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:00,880
Amen.

1411
01:06:01,420 --> 01:06:04,560
I'm just going to read and I'll finish

1412
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:05,360
it off on this.

1413
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:07,060
Amazing.

1414
01:06:17,350 --> 01:06:18,370
Where is it?

1415
01:06:18,490 --> 01:06:18,890
Where is it?

1416
01:06:18,910 --> 01:06:19,770
Here it is.

1417
01:06:22,340 --> 01:06:24,360
I'll bring your attention on how the Old

1418
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:27,980
Testament ended and how the New Testament ended.

1419
01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:31,980
The Old Testament ended with the book of

1420
01:06:31,980 --> 01:06:33,080
Malachi or Malachi.

1421
01:06:33,740 --> 01:06:36,500
In Malachi chapter 4, which is the last

1422
01:06:36,500 --> 01:06:38,860
chapter, and verse 6, which is the last

1423
01:06:38,860 --> 01:06:41,740
verse, this is the Lord God speaking through

1424
01:06:41,740 --> 01:06:45,100
Malachi, the prophet, which is the end of

1425
01:06:45,100 --> 01:06:47,140
the Old Testament prophecy.

1426
01:06:47,660 --> 01:06:48,240
Look at this.

1427
01:06:49,100 --> 01:06:51,180
Lest I come, the Lord is saying, lest

1428
01:06:51,180 --> 01:06:54,580
I come and strike the earth with a

1429
01:06:54,580 --> 01:06:55,420
curse.

1430
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:58,120
You better behave.

1431
01:06:58,500 --> 01:07:00,900
Otherwise, if I come and you're not behaving

1432
01:07:00,900 --> 01:07:03,880
accordingly, I will strike the earth with curse.

1433
01:07:04,180 --> 01:07:07,960
The Old Testament ends with the word curse

1434
01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:11,020
and the New Testament ends with the word

1435
01:07:11,020 --> 01:07:11,780
grace.

1436
01:07:16,370 --> 01:07:20,630
The Lord is saying, if you place yourself

1437
01:07:20,630 --> 01:07:24,810
under the law, you are placing yourself under

1438
01:07:24,810 --> 01:07:25,290
curse.

1439
01:07:26,030 --> 01:07:29,390
But if you place yourself under Christ the

1440
01:07:29,390 --> 01:07:32,870
King, you are placing yourself under grace.

1441
01:07:35,230 --> 01:07:39,110
Because if you say, I want to walk

1442
01:07:39,110 --> 01:07:41,550
according to the law, you can never fulfill

1443
01:07:41,550 --> 01:07:42,350
the law of God.

1444
01:07:42,770 --> 01:07:45,410
And since you will never be able to

1445
01:07:45,410 --> 01:07:47,910
fulfill the law of God, the law will

1446
01:07:47,910 --> 01:07:49,850
curse you, i.e. will judge you.

1447
01:07:50,570 --> 01:07:52,610
You break the law, the law will break

1448
01:07:52,610 --> 01:07:52,830
you.

1449
01:07:53,330 --> 01:07:56,870
You place yourself under the law, you place

1450
01:07:56,870 --> 01:07:58,810
yourself under the curse.

1451
01:07:59,130 --> 01:08:01,770
But if you place yourself under Christ the

1452
01:08:01,770 --> 01:08:05,350
King, you are placing yourself under grace.

1453
01:08:06,130 --> 01:08:10,530
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be

1454
01:08:10,530 --> 01:08:11,470
with you all.

1455
01:08:11,910 --> 01:08:12,290
Wow.

1456
01:08:13,090 --> 01:08:15,569
The Old Testament people walked under the law.

1457
01:08:16,350 --> 01:08:17,990
They ended up with curse.

1458
01:08:18,710 --> 01:08:22,970
The New Testament church walked under Christ guidance

1459
01:08:22,970 --> 01:08:25,930
and leadership is walking under grace.

1460
01:08:26,649 --> 01:08:27,390
And what is grace?

1461
01:08:27,770 --> 01:08:31,450
Jesus hanging on the cross, awaiting for you

1462
01:08:31,450 --> 01:08:33,890
to come and say, Lord, forgive my sins

1463
01:08:33,890 --> 01:08:35,750
in order to forgive you.

1464
01:08:36,370 --> 01:08:40,569
Grace forgives law, judges and curses.

1465
01:08:43,100 --> 01:08:44,800
The law will always find you guilty.

1466
01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:47,979
You are cursed, but grace will always find

1467
01:08:47,979 --> 01:08:53,620
you justified by the blood of the Lamb

1468
01:08:53,620 --> 01:08:54,120
of God.

1469
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:56,700
Wow, that is grace.

1470
01:08:57,500 --> 01:09:03,520
Justification, sanctification, where the law is curse, judgment.

1471
01:09:06,460 --> 01:09:07,340
Incredible.

1472
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:13,160
The last chapter of the New Testament, the

1473
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:18,040
book of Revelation, which is the book that

1474
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:22,819
talks about God's judgment on the world where

1475
01:09:22,819 --> 01:09:24,720
the world has denied him.

1476
01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:27,700
But at the end, for those who accepted

1477
01:09:27,700 --> 01:09:30,899
him, he finishes with the word grace.

1478
01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:38,460
I'm the ever loving, tender, kind, merciful God

1479
01:09:38,460 --> 01:09:39,880
for those who accept me.

1480
01:09:42,140 --> 01:09:44,500
But if you want me to judge, reject

1481
01:09:44,500 --> 01:09:44,880
me.

1482
01:09:47,899 --> 01:09:50,560
In my nature, I'm the judge and I'm

1483
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:51,080
the savior.

1484
01:09:52,460 --> 01:09:55,420
You accept me, I save you through my

1485
01:09:55,420 --> 01:09:55,820
grace.

1486
01:09:56,100 --> 01:09:58,320
You reject me, I'll judge you through my

1487
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:00,940
law, through my word.

1488
01:10:04,490 --> 01:10:07,190
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be

1489
01:10:07,190 --> 01:10:08,010
with you all.

1490
01:10:08,890 --> 01:10:09,450
Amen.
