00:00:06.999 --> 00:00:07.918
REBECCA LAMB WEISS:
HEY, GUYS.
00:00:07.918 --> 00:00:09.751
WELCOME BACK TO ANOTHER
EPISODE OFON AIR WITH REBECCA.
00:00:09.751 --> 00:00:12.417
NOW, I'M REALLY EXCITED
TODAY BECAUSE I'VE BEEN
00:00:12.417 --> 00:00:14.584
FOLLOWING THIS GUEST
FOR QUITE SOME TIME,
00:00:14.584 --> 00:00:18.042
SO I'M EXCITED TO FINALLY TAKE
A SITDOWN AND TALK WITH HIM.
00:00:18.042 --> 00:00:21.501
I KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE
SUCH A SPIRIT-LED CONVERSATION.
00:00:21.501 --> 00:00:24.334
HE'S AN AUTHOR, A SPEAKER,
AND A PASTOR OF
00:00:24.334 --> 00:00:27.417
GRACE & PEACE GLOBAL FELLOWSHIP
IN TAMPA, FLORIDA,
00:00:27.417 --> 00:00:31.667
AND GOD HAS BEEN GIVING HIM
VISIONS AND DREAMS FOR YEARS.
00:00:31.667 --> 00:00:35.000
HE'S NOT AFRAID TO TELL
THE TRUTH AND HE HAS A
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.876
TIMELY WORD, A NEW
BOOK COMING OUT CALLED
00:00:37.876 --> 00:00:38.999
OVERCOMING FAMILIAR SPIRITS.
00:00:38.999 --> 00:00:43.083
WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING
ABOUT THAT AND SO MUCH MORE.
00:00:43.083 --> 00:00:44.584
SO DR. BRIDGES?
00:00:44.584 --> 00:00:45.918
DR. KYNAN BRIDGES: YES,
THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
00:00:45.918 --> 00:00:47.542
REBECCA: THANK YOU
SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE. OKAY.
00:00:47.542 --> 00:00:49.542
DR. BRIDGES: THANKS FOR
HAVING ME, I APPRECIATE THIS.
00:00:49.542 --> 00:00:50.751
REBECCA: SO LET'S
START OFF WITH,
00:00:50.751 --> 00:00:53.834
WE WERE TALKING BEHIND THE
SCENES ABOUT THIS BOOK AND
00:00:53.834 --> 00:00:58.000
I WAS ASKING YOU, OKAY,
WHY WAS THIS A WORD FOR NOW?
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:01.167
SO TELL US WHAT GOD
SHOWED YOU AND WHAT LED YOU TO
00:01:01.167 --> 00:01:02.042
WRITING THIS BOOK?
00:01:02.042 --> 00:01:04.999
DR. BRIDGES: SO IT'S
AN INTERESTING STORY.
00:01:04.999 --> 00:01:07.417
A FRIEND OF MINE
WHO'S AN ATTORNEY,
00:01:07.417 --> 00:01:09.083
HE'S A PARTNER
AT A LAW FIRM,
00:01:09.083 --> 00:01:11.167
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT A
PROPERTY THAT WE WERE
00:01:11.167 --> 00:01:14.292
LOOKING AT FOR
MINISTRY IN FLORIDA.
00:01:14.292 --> 00:01:17.999
AND IT PROBABLY WAS OWNED
BY AN ASSEMBLIES OF GOD
00:01:17.999 --> 00:01:19.876
CHURCH AND IT DIDN'T
HAVE ANY DEBT,
00:01:19.876 --> 00:01:21.459
THEY BUILT IT FROM
THE GROUND UP.
00:01:21.459 --> 00:01:23.375
SO THEY NEVER TOOK OUT A
BANK LOAN OR ANYTHING.
00:01:23.375 --> 00:01:26.334
SO THAT'S ALL THE
PROPERTY'S FREE AND CLEAR,
00:01:26.334 --> 00:01:28.417
WE CAN DO A CONTRACT.
00:01:28.417 --> 00:01:31.042
HE SAYS, WELL, YOU NEED
TO DO A TITLE SEARCH.
00:01:31.042 --> 00:01:32.000
AND I SAID, OKAY.
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:34.292
HE SAYS, BECAUSE A
PROPERTY CAN BE PAID IN
00:01:34.292 --> 00:01:37.667
FULL BUT STILL HAVE A
LIEN ON THE PROPERTY.
00:01:37.667 --> 00:01:38.417
I SAID, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
00:01:38.417 --> 00:01:40.125
HE SAYS, WELL, HE
SAYS, FOR EXAMPLE,
00:01:40.125 --> 00:01:42.417
THERE'S SOMETHING CALLED
A MECHANIC'S LIEN,
00:01:42.417 --> 00:01:44.999
WHICH IS BASICALLY, OR A
MECHANICAL LIEN IS ANOTHER
00:01:44.999 --> 00:01:48.292
WAY TO DESCRIBE IT, IF
SOMEBODY DOES WORK ON A
00:01:48.292 --> 00:01:51.459
HOUSE OR THEY DO A
RENOVATE YOUR ROOF OR DO
00:01:51.459 --> 00:01:55.167
SOMETHING MAJOR AND
YOU DON'T PAY THEM,
00:01:55.167 --> 00:01:57.125
THEY CAN ACTUALLY PUT A
LIEN ON YOUR HOME SO WHEN
00:01:57.125 --> 00:01:59.584
YOU TRY TO SELL IT, YOU
CAN'T BECAUSE IT HAS A
00:01:59.584 --> 00:02:01.083
CLAIM AGAINST THE HOME.
00:02:01.083 --> 00:02:05.209
A LIEN IS A LEGAL CLAIM
AGAINST PROPERTY.
00:02:05.209 --> 00:02:08.167
AND I SAID,
WOW, THAT'S REALLY DEEP.
00:02:08.167 --> 00:02:10.876
AND AFTER HE TALKED WITH
ME, I WILL NEVER FORGET,
00:02:10.876 --> 00:02:13.000
I WAS SITTING IN A
HOTEL ROOM IN HOUSTON,
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:15.542
I BELIEVE, AND THE
HOLY SPIRIT SAID,
00:02:15.542 --> 00:02:19.167
MANY OF MY PEOPLE HAVE
DEMONIC LIENS AGAINST
00:02:19.167 --> 00:02:21.751
THEIR LIFE AND DESTINY,
AND THIS IS WHAT IS
00:02:21.751 --> 00:02:25.459
HINDERING THEM FROM SEEING
THE PURPOSE OF GOD MANIFEST.
00:02:25.459 --> 00:02:27.751
THEY LOVE GOD,
THEY LOVE THE LORD,
00:02:27.751 --> 00:02:30.417
THEY LOVE MINISTRY,
AND THEY'RE SAVED.
00:02:30.417 --> 00:02:33.417
BUT THE HOUSE CAN BE
PAID IN FULL AND STILL HAVE A
00:02:33.417 --> 00:02:34.250
CLAIM AGAINST IT.
00:02:34.250 --> 00:02:37.375
AND HE SAYS, SO I WANT
YOU TO HELP MY PEOPLE
00:02:37.375 --> 00:02:42.626
DISCHARGE THESE SPIRITUAL
LIENS OR THESE CLAIMS
00:02:42.626 --> 00:02:45.375
AGAINST THEM THAT ARE
KEEPING THEM IN BONDAGE.
00:02:45.375 --> 00:02:46.999
AND SO THAT'S WHY
I WROTE THE BOOK.
00:02:46.999 --> 00:02:48.083
REBECCA: SO IT'S SO
INTERESTING THAT YOU SAY
00:02:48.083 --> 00:02:50.083
THIS BECAUSE ONE OF THE
THINGS I WANT TO TALK
00:02:50.083 --> 00:02:52.999
ABOUT ON THIS SHOW IS
SPIRITUAL WARFARE,
00:02:52.999 --> 00:02:54.375
AND IT'S BECAUSE
GROWING UP,
00:02:54.375 --> 00:02:57.792
I WANTED TO AVOID THAT
TOPIC BECAUSE I THOUGHT IF
00:02:57.792 --> 00:02:59.501
I DIDN'T TALK
ABOUT THE DEVIL,
00:02:59.501 --> 00:03:03.375
DIDN'T ACKNOWLEDGE DEMONS,
THAT I WOULDN'T GET BOTHERED.
00:03:03.375 --> 00:03:04.167
DR. BRIDGES: HELLO.
00:03:04.167 --> 00:03:04.918
[ CHUCKLES ]
00:03:04.918 --> 00:03:05.542
REBECCA:
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
00:03:05.542 --> 00:03:07.999
IF YOU WALK IN THE CALLING
AND DESTINY OF GOD,
00:03:07.999 --> 00:03:09.959
THE DEVIL IS GOING
TO ATTACK YOU.
00:03:09.959 --> 00:03:11.999
THE DEVIL WANTS TO
DESTROY EVERYONE.
00:03:11.999 --> 00:03:12.834
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:03:12.834 --> 00:03:13.876
REBECCA: BUT IF YOU'RE
GOING TO BE OBEDIENT TO
00:03:13.876 --> 00:03:15.292
THE LORD, HE'S GOING
TO GO AFTER YOU,
00:03:15.292 --> 00:03:17.167
AND IT TOOK ME GOING
THROUGH A SEASON OF GOING
00:03:17.167 --> 00:03:19.999
THROUGH A LOT OF SPIRITUAL
ATTACK LEARNING FOR THE
00:03:19.999 --> 00:03:23.000
FIRST TIME SPIRITUAL
AUTHORITY IN CHRIST AND
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:24.959
ALL OF THESE
DIFFERENT THINGS.
00:03:24.959 --> 00:03:26.792
AND SO NOW I DO LIKE
TALKING ABOUT SPIRITUAL
00:03:26.792 --> 00:03:30.834
WARFARE BECAUSE I THINK
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE MAYBE
00:03:30.834 --> 00:03:32.751
DEALING WITH SOMETHING AND
THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE
00:03:32.751 --> 00:03:33.999
SPIRITUAL ASPECT OF IT.
00:03:33.999 --> 00:03:35.999
AND I THINK THIS IS A HUGE
TOPIC WHERE THEY CAN BE
00:03:35.999 --> 00:03:37.999
DEALING WITH
FAMILIAR SPIRITS,
00:03:37.999 --> 00:03:40.375
THESE CLAIMS
ON THEIR LIFE,
00:03:40.375 --> 00:03:42.042
AND IF THEY DON'T KNOW
HOW TO DEAL WITH IT,
00:03:42.042 --> 00:03:44.667
THEY CAN TRY TO GO FORWARD
AND FORWARD AND FORWARD,
00:03:44.667 --> 00:03:46.999
BUT IT'S LIKE THEY CAN'T
MOVE FORWARD BECAUSE THESE
00:03:46.999 --> 00:03:49.292
DEMONS HAVE A CLAIM.
00:03:49.292 --> 00:03:49.999
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:03:49.999 --> 00:03:52.999
THERE'S TWO THINGS YOU
HAVE TO ADDRESS WHEN YOU
00:03:52.999 --> 00:03:53.459
TALK ABOUT THIS.
00:03:53.459 --> 00:03:55.999
ONE IS THE LAW
OF PERMISSION,
00:03:55.999 --> 00:03:57.876
WHICH I TALK ABOUT
IN THIS BOOK.
00:03:57.876 --> 00:04:01.999
THE DEMONIC WORLD ALWAYS
NEEDS PERMISSION.
00:04:01.999 --> 00:04:02.542
IT NEEDS AN INVITATION.
00:04:02.542 --> 00:04:06.000
IT CAN'T -- DEMONS DON'T JUST
SHOW UP BECAUSE THEY SHOW UP.
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:08.999
THERE HAS TO BE SOME
FORM OF AGREEMENT WITH A
00:04:08.999 --> 00:04:13.999
DEMONIC POWER TO GIVE
THE ENEMY ACCESS TO US.
00:04:13.999 --> 00:04:14.999
AND THAT'S WHY
AMOS TELLS US,
00:04:14.999 --> 00:04:17.792
HOW CAN TWO WALK TOGETHER,
EXCEPT THEY BE AGREED?
00:04:17.792 --> 00:04:18.542
WE SEE ALL OF THAT.
00:04:18.542 --> 00:04:21.999
AND THE OTHER THING IS,
WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS WHOLE
00:04:21.999 --> 00:04:24.292
GENERATIONAL DYNAMIC, IT'S
IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO
00:04:24.292 --> 00:04:29.125
UNDERSTAND THAT THE SPIRITUAL
WORLD IS NOT LIKE THIS PLACE.
00:04:29.125 --> 00:04:30.083
WELL, THAT'S NOT FAIR.
00:04:30.083 --> 00:04:33.250
PEOPLE SAY, WELL, THIS
IS NOT FAIR, RIGHT.
00:04:33.250 --> 00:04:34.876
WELL, IT'S NOT FAIR.
00:04:34.876 --> 00:04:36.167
THE SPIRITUAL
WORLD IS NOT FAIR.
00:04:36.167 --> 00:04:38.751
YOU CAN FIGHT DEMONS
THAT YOU DID NOT INVITE.
00:04:38.751 --> 00:04:39.999
SOMEBODY ELSE
INVITED THEM IN.
00:04:39.999 --> 00:04:42.375
BUT BECAUSE YOU'RE
CONNECTED TO THAT PERSON
00:04:42.375 --> 00:04:44.959
OR CONNECTED TO THAT
BLOODLINE OR CONNECTED TO
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:47.125
THAT FAMILY, IT
CAN AFFECT YOU.
00:04:47.125 --> 00:04:50.709
AND SO THIS IS WHY PAUL
SAYS IN HIS EPISTLE,
00:04:50.709 --> 00:04:53.292
I BELIEVE IT WAS IN
CORINTHIANS, HE SAYS,
00:04:53.292 --> 00:04:57.375
I WILL NOT HAVE YOU
IGNORANT OF THE ENEMY'S DEVICES.
00:04:57.375 --> 00:05:00.999
HE HAS THINGS THAT HE DOES
AND THINGS THAT HE WEIGHS
00:05:00.999 --> 00:05:01.834
AND HE OPERATES.
00:05:01.834 --> 00:05:03.999
AND I'LL GIVE AN EXAMPLE.
00:05:03.999 --> 00:05:07.542
IF YOU LOOK AT
SAMUEL, RIGHT,
00:05:07.542 --> 00:05:10.999
SAMUEL ANOINTS KING SAUL
AND HE TELLS HIM ONE OF
00:05:10.999 --> 00:05:15.918
HIS FIRST ASSIGNMENTS IS TO GO
KILL AGAG AND THE AMALEKITES.
00:05:15.918 --> 00:05:17.999
AGAG WAS A KING
OF THE AMALEKITES.
00:05:17.999 --> 00:05:20.999
GOD TOLD HIM TO KILL MEN,
WOMEN, AND CHILDREN.
00:05:20.999 --> 00:05:21.959
REBECCA:
GET RID OF EVERYONE.
00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:22.751
DR. BRIDGES:
KILL EVERYBODY.
00:05:22.751 --> 00:05:24.959
IN OTHER WORDS, WE WILL
CONSIDER THAT GENOCIDE.
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:25.876
REBECCA: YEAH,
WIPE THEM ALL OUT.
00:05:25.876 --> 00:05:26.667
DR. BRIDGES:
WIPE THEM ALL OUT.
00:05:26.667 --> 00:05:31.542
SO WHEN HE GETS THERE,
THEY KILL A FEW OF THEM,
00:05:31.542 --> 00:05:32.999
AND HE KEEPS THE BEST
OF THE LIVESTOCK,
00:05:32.999 --> 00:05:36.167
AND HE SPARES AGAG AND
PROBABLY HIS FAMILY.
00:05:36.167 --> 00:05:39.999
AND SO HE COMES AND SAMUEL
REBUKES HIM AND SAYS,
00:05:39.999 --> 00:05:41.334
YOU DID NOT DO THE
WORD OF THE LORD.
00:05:41.334 --> 00:05:43.501
AND HE LIED, WELL, I DID
PERFORM THE WORD OF THE LORD.
00:05:43.501 --> 00:05:45.876
AND YOU READ THE
STORY, YOU SAY, WELL,
00:05:45.876 --> 00:05:47.751
WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?
00:05:47.751 --> 00:05:50.834
I MAY HAVE NOT WANTED TO
KILL THE PEOPLE, EITHER.
00:05:50.834 --> 00:05:51.999
YOU READ THE STORY.
00:05:51.999 --> 00:05:55.918
BUT THERE'S A SPIRITUAL
IMPLICATION IN THE STORY
00:05:55.918 --> 00:05:57.999
BECAUSE HUNDREDS
OF YEARS LATER,
00:05:57.999 --> 00:06:01.083
SEVERAL GENERATIONS
DOWN THE LINE,
00:06:01.083 --> 00:06:05.501
ISRAEL IS NO LONGER, THE
JEWS ARE NO LONGER IN
00:06:05.501 --> 00:06:10.250
ISRAEL, THEY'RE IN THE
PERSIAN EMPIRE, RIGHT.
00:06:10.250 --> 00:06:11.292
AND THERE IS.
00:06:11.292 --> 00:06:11.999
REBECCA:
UNDER CAPTIVITY.
00:06:11.999 --> 00:06:13.000
DR. BRIDGES:
UNDER CAPTIVITY.
00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:20.167
AND NOW THERE'S A MAN
NAMED HAMAN, AND HAMAN,
00:06:20.167 --> 00:06:22.918
IF YOU READ THE
BOOK OF ESTHER,
00:06:22.918 --> 00:06:23.999
THE FIRST TIME
HE'S MENTIONED,
00:06:23.999 --> 00:06:26.792
HE'S REFERRED TO
AS AN AGAGITE.
00:06:26.792 --> 00:06:29.999
HE'S A DESCENDENT
OF KING AGAG, RIGHT.
00:06:29.999 --> 00:06:30.999
REBECCA: OH, I
DIDN'T KNOW THIS.
00:06:30.999 --> 00:06:32.125
DR. BRIDGES:
HE'S AN AGAGITE.
00:06:32.125 --> 00:06:34.375
HE'S A DESCENDENT
OF KING AGAG.
00:06:34.375 --> 00:06:37.042
AND HE SEES
MORDECAI, RIGHT.
00:06:37.042 --> 00:06:39.667
AND THE BIBLE SAYS,
MORDECAI REFUSED TO BOW TO
00:06:39.667 --> 00:06:42.709
HIM, AND FROM THAT DAY
FORWARD, HAMAN SAYS,
00:06:42.709 --> 00:06:45.918
I'M GOING TO WIPE OUT
THE ENTIRE RACE OF JEWS,
00:06:45.918 --> 00:06:48.999
I'M GOING TO
COMMIT A HOLOCAUST.
00:06:48.999 --> 00:06:49.999
SO WHAT DO WE SEE HERE?
00:06:49.999 --> 00:06:52.042
EVEN THOUGH THIS IS
HUNDREDS OF GENERATIONS
00:06:52.042 --> 00:06:57.042
LATER, THE SPIRIT OF
AGAG WAS STILL TRYING TO
00:06:57.042 --> 00:07:01.918
DESTROY THE JEWS THROUGH
ONE OF HIS DESCENDENTS, YOU SEE.
00:07:01.918 --> 00:07:05.584
AND THAT'S WHAT WE CALL A
GENERATIONAL INIQUITOUS
00:07:05.584 --> 00:07:10.167
PATTERN OR GENERATIONAL
ATTACHMENT TO A FAMILIAR SPIRIT.
00:07:10.167 --> 00:07:13.042
SO THEY WEREN'T JUST
FIGHTING ONE PERSON.
00:07:13.042 --> 00:07:16.542
IT WAS A SPIRITUAL BATTLE,
YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYING?
00:07:16.542 --> 00:07:19.167
THE SAME THING WHEN WE
TALK ABOUT ABORTION.
00:07:19.167 --> 00:07:23.292
WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
ABORTION, FOR EXAMPLE,
00:07:23.292 --> 00:07:25.292
WHY ARE WE SO VOCAL
AGAINST ABORTION?
00:07:25.292 --> 00:07:28.876
WELL, BECAUSE ABORTION IS
NOT ABOUT JUST CHOICE.
00:07:28.876 --> 00:07:30.209
IT'S NOT AN
ISSUE OF CHOICE.
00:07:30.209 --> 00:07:32.292
THERE WAS A GOD WORSHIPED
IN THE ANCIENT WORLD
00:07:32.292 --> 00:07:35.959
CALLED MOLECH, AND ONE OF
THE WAYS THEY VENERATED
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:40.999
MOLECH IS BY SACRIFICING
CHILDREN ON THE ALTAR, RIGHT.
00:07:40.999 --> 00:07:43.250
SO WHEN YOU DO THESE
EGREGIOUS ACTS,
00:07:43.250 --> 00:07:47.209
YOU INVITE DEMONIC
POWERS INTO COMMUNITIES.
00:07:47.209 --> 00:07:48.334
THESE ARE
FAMILIAR SPIRITS.
00:07:48.334 --> 00:07:50.751
WHEN YOU HAVE AN ABORTION
CLINIC IN AN URBAN
00:07:50.751 --> 00:07:52.999
NEIGHBORHOOD, LOOK
AT THE CRIME IN THAT
00:07:52.999 --> 00:07:57.042
NEIGHBORHOOD, LOOK AT THE
ATROCITIES THAT HAPPEN.
00:07:57.042 --> 00:07:59.626
WELL, THOSE THINGS ARE NOT
JUST HAPPENING BECAUSE
00:07:59.626 --> 00:08:02.876
IT'S A BLACK OR
LATINO COMMUNITY.
00:08:02.876 --> 00:08:05.959
IT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE
OF SPIRITUAL LAWS.
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:07.999
THOSE ALTARS THAT ARE
BEING ERECTED IN THOSE
00:08:07.999 --> 00:08:11.375
COMMUNITIES ARE INVITING
DEMONIC POWERS.
00:08:11.375 --> 00:08:13.584
AND SO ONE OF THE WAYS
THAT WE FIGHT THOSE
00:08:13.584 --> 00:08:15.751
DEMONIC POWERS IS NOT JUST
BY GOING IN THERE AND
00:08:15.751 --> 00:08:18.709
PRAYING, WE HAVE TO
DESTROY THE ALTARS.
00:08:18.709 --> 00:08:20.876
WE HAVE TO TEAR DOWN
THE HIGH PLACES.
00:08:20.876 --> 00:08:23.125
SO THIS IS AN EXAMPLE
OF WHAT I MEAN.
00:08:23.125 --> 00:08:25.751
SOMETIMES WE'RE FACING
THINGS WE DIDN'T
00:08:25.751 --> 00:08:28.999
NECESSARILY INVITE, BUT
SOMEONE INVITED THEM.
00:08:28.999 --> 00:08:30.626
IT COULD BE IN
OUR BLOODLINE,
00:08:30.626 --> 00:08:31.709
IT COULD BE IN OUR FAMILY.
00:08:31.709 --> 00:08:36.999
IMAGINE A WIFE WHO HAS A HUSBAND
WHO WATCHES PORNOGRAPHY.
00:08:36.999 --> 00:08:37.459
REBECCA: YEAH.
00:08:37.459 --> 00:08:39.959
DR. BRIDGES: SO SHE'S
NOT WATCHING PORNOGRAPHY,
00:08:39.959 --> 00:08:40.292
BUT GUESS WHAT?
00:08:40.292 --> 00:08:42.501
BECAUSE HE'S THE SPIRITUAL
HEAD OF THE HOME,
00:08:42.501 --> 00:08:45.626
THOSE SPIRITS CAN
STILL ENTER THE HOUSE,
00:08:45.626 --> 00:08:47.918
EVEN THOUGH SHE DOESN'T
WANT THEM THERE.
00:08:47.918 --> 00:08:48.292
REBECCA: YEAH.
00:08:48.292 --> 00:08:49.918
DR. BRIDGES: SO THESE
ARE EXAMPLES OF WHAT
00:08:49.918 --> 00:08:50.417
I'M TALKING ABOUT.
00:08:50.417 --> 00:08:53.918
REBECCA: YEAH, AND ALSO
IT CAN TRAVEL THROUGH THE
00:08:53.918 --> 00:08:55.334
FAMILY LINE, LIKE
YOU WERE SAYING.
00:08:55.334 --> 00:08:58.083
AND SO ONE OF THE THINGS,
I KNOW IT TALKS ABOUT --
00:08:58.083 --> 00:08:59.584
MOSES TALKS ABOUT THIS
I THINK IN THE BOOK OF
00:08:59.584 --> 00:09:02.417
DEUTERONOMY, WHERE IT
TALKS ABOUT HOW GOD WANTS
00:09:02.417 --> 00:09:04.918
TO BLESS AND HE'LL
BLESS HUNDREDS,
00:09:04.918 --> 00:09:06.584
I THINK ALMOST A THOUSAND.
00:09:06.584 --> 00:09:10.999
BUT THERE IS A CURSE I THINK
THREE TO FOUR GENERATIONS.
00:09:10.999 --> 00:09:12.999
BECAUSE IF GOD, IT'S
A PRINCIPLE THING.
00:09:12.999 --> 00:09:16.167
IF GOD CAN BLESS, THERE'S
ALSO CHOICE FOR THOSE WHO
00:09:16.167 --> 00:09:19.250
DON'T OBEY GOD'S COMMANDMENTS
AND THEY CAN CURSE.
00:09:19.250 --> 00:09:20.999
ONE OF THE THINGS ACTUALLY
DEREK PRINCE TALKED ABOUT
00:09:20.999 --> 00:09:23.542
IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMON
THINGS HE WOULD SEE IS THE
00:09:23.542 --> 00:09:27.999
FIRST COMMANDMENT IS, YOU'LL
HAVE NO OTHER GOD BESIDE ME.
00:09:27.999 --> 00:09:29.918
NOT JUST BEFORE
ME BUT BESIDE.
00:09:29.918 --> 00:09:31.999
AND HE WOULD TALK ABOUT IF
ANYONE WOULD EVER ENGAGE
00:09:31.999 --> 00:09:36.167
IN THE OCCULT; IF THEY
WOULD SEE A PSYCHIC,
00:09:36.167 --> 00:09:37.999
IF THEY WOULD GET
A PALM READING,
00:09:37.999 --> 00:09:41.375
IF THEY WOULD ENGAGE
IN, WHAT IS IT WITH THE
00:09:41.375 --> 00:09:44.876
ZODIAC, YOUR HOROSCOPE,
WHICH IS A FALSE PROPHECY,
00:09:44.876 --> 00:09:47.876
HE SAID THAT INVITES --
YOU'RE BREAKING THAT
00:09:47.876 --> 00:09:50.876
COMMANDMENT AND YOU'RE
OPENING A DOOR BECAUSE
00:09:50.876 --> 00:09:52.709
YOU'RE INVITING A
DEMONIC SPIRIT IN,
00:09:52.709 --> 00:09:55.999
BECAUSE YOU CAN STILL
BELIEVE IN GOD,
00:09:55.999 --> 00:09:59.292
BUT YOU'RE GOING TO A
FALSE GOD FOR ANSWERS.
00:09:59.292 --> 00:09:59.959
DR. BRIDGES: YEAH.
00:09:59.959 --> 00:10:01.501
REBECCA: AND SO THAT CAN
GO THROUGH THE GENERATIONS.
00:10:01.501 --> 00:10:02.999
SO YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE
ENGAGED IN ANY KIND OF
00:10:02.999 --> 00:10:07.918
WITCHCRAFT, BUT YOU COULD HAVE
HAD A PARENT, A GRANDPARENT.
00:10:07.918 --> 00:10:10.999
AND SO THIS IS THE KIND OF STUFF
THAT COULD BE IN YOUR LINE.
00:10:10.999 --> 00:10:13.751
AND HE ACTUALLY TALKED
ABOUT FOR HIMSELF
00:10:13.751 --> 00:10:16.459
PERSONALLY THERE WAS A
SPIRIT OF DEPRESSION.
00:10:16.459 --> 00:10:16.999
DR. BRIDGES: MM.
00:10:16.999 --> 00:10:18.459
REBECCA: AND THE HOLY SPIRIT
HAD TO SHOW HIM
00:10:18.459 --> 00:10:20.626
BECAUSE HE WAS
DEALING WITH DEPRESSION.
00:10:20.626 --> 00:10:21.999
AND IT WAS A
FAMILIAR SPIRIT,
00:10:21.999 --> 00:10:23.709
IT HAD AFFECTED
HIS FATHER,
00:10:23.709 --> 00:10:25.334
AND HE HAD TO TAKE
AUTHORITY OVER THAT.
00:10:25.334 --> 00:10:27.125
SO LEADING UP
TO MY QUESTION,
00:10:27.125 --> 00:10:31.000
WE DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING
THAT'S IN OUR FAMILY LINES.
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:36.667
SO HOW DO WE FIGURE OUT IF
THERE IS A FAMILIAR SPIRIT
00:10:36.667 --> 00:10:38.000
AND HOW DO WE
DEAL WITH IT?
00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:38.709
DR. BRIDGES: YEAH.
00:10:38.709 --> 00:10:42.083
SO I TALK ABOUT,
IN SOME OF THIS,
00:10:42.083 --> 00:10:46.999
I TALK ABOUT THE
DIAGNOSTICS, RIGHT,
00:10:46.999 --> 00:10:51.999
FOR HOW DO WE IDENTIFY THAT
A DEMONIC POWER IS PRESENT.
00:10:51.999 --> 00:10:56.000
WELL, THERE'S CERTAIN THINGS
THAT DEMONS BRING, OKAY.
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:58.999
NUMBER ONE, THEY
BRING BONDAGE, OKAY.
00:10:58.999 --> 00:11:01.834
SO WHEREVER THERE'S
BONDAGE, THE BIBLE SAYS,
00:11:01.834 --> 00:11:03.999
WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS,
THERE IS LIBERTY.
00:11:03.999 --> 00:11:07.626
SO THAT'S THE ANTITHESIS
TO BONDAGE, RIGHT?
00:11:07.626 --> 00:11:09.751
SO WHEN WE FIND AREAS IN
OUR LIVES WHERE THERE IS
00:11:09.751 --> 00:11:13.292
PERSISTENT BONDAGE
OR AFFLICTION,
00:11:13.292 --> 00:11:17.000
WHETHER IT BE DEPRESSION,
WHETHER IT BE FEAR,
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:19.959
THERE'S PEOPLE THAT HAVE ANXIETY
ATTACKS, THINGS LIKE THIS.
00:11:19.959 --> 00:11:26.375
THOSE ARE OFTEN INDICATORS THAT
THERE'S A DEMONIC POWER PRESENT.
00:11:26.375 --> 00:11:30.250
THE OTHER THING, TOO, IS
IF I CAN'T SHAKE THIS THING.
00:11:30.250 --> 00:11:30.999
REBECCA: MM-HM.
00:11:30.999 --> 00:11:32.999
LIKE STRUGGLING WITH
SOMETHING IN PARTICULAR.
00:11:32.999 --> 00:11:36.083
DR. BRIDGES: IT'S JUST
AN ONGOING STRUGGLE,
00:11:36.083 --> 00:11:37.918
IT KEEPS GOING
ON AND ON AND ON.
00:11:37.918 --> 00:11:40.542
YOU'VE PRAYED ABOUT IT,
YOU GO TO CONFERENCES,
00:11:40.542 --> 00:11:42.876
YOU'VE READ THE BIBLE,
YOU LOVE THE LORD.
00:11:42.876 --> 00:11:46.999
BUT THIS THING JUST KEEPS
REARING ITS UGLY HEAD.
00:11:46.999 --> 00:11:51.542
A LOT OF TIMES, THAT CAN
BE EVIDENCE OF THERE'S A
00:11:51.542 --> 00:11:56.083
DEMONIC LIEN WORKING IN
THAT PARTICULAR SITUATION.
00:11:56.083 --> 00:11:58.834
AND SO WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO
USE THE RIGHT DIAGNOSTIC.
00:11:58.834 --> 00:12:05.501
AND I THINK ULTIMATELY
WHEN WE SEE ILL FAVOR,
00:12:05.501 --> 00:12:07.999
CALAMITY, RIGHT,
PREMATURE DEATH,
00:12:07.999 --> 00:12:11.334
THESE ARE ALL THINGS
THAT ARE INDICATIVE THAT
00:12:11.334 --> 00:12:14.584
THERE'S SOMETHING
SPIRITUAL WORKING. YEAH.
00:12:14.584 --> 00:12:16.501
REBECCA: AND SO YOU
ACTUALLY FACED A LOT OF
00:12:16.501 --> 00:12:21.292
PUSHBACK, A LOT OF WARFARE
WHEN YOU WROTE THIS BOOK
00:12:21.292 --> 00:12:24.501
BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN
THE CHURCH I THINK AREN'T
00:12:24.501 --> 00:12:26.626
TALKING ABOUT
SPIRITUAL WARFARE,
00:12:26.626 --> 00:12:28.125
AND YET I THINK
IT'S A HUGE ISSUE.
00:12:28.125 --> 00:12:31.876
I THINK A LOT OF
BELIEVERS ARE STRUGGLING.
00:12:31.876 --> 00:12:34.709
AND I THINK EVEN OUR
CONCEPT OF DEMONIC
00:12:34.709 --> 00:12:37.709
SPIRITS, THEM
OPERATING IN OUR LIVES,
00:12:37.709 --> 00:12:40.167
I DON'T EVEN THINK, ALL
WE KNOW IS HOLLYWOOD'S
00:12:40.167 --> 00:12:42.292
VERSION OFTHE EXORCIST
OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
00:12:42.292 --> 00:12:45.999
AND IT'S REALLY NOT
USUALLY LIKE THAT AT ALL.
00:12:45.999 --> 00:12:46.626
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:12:46.626 --> 00:12:49.876
REBECCA: AND I REMEMBER
TALKING TO A COUNSELOR
00:12:49.876 --> 00:12:51.667
FRIEND OF MINE WHO
GREW UP IN ZIMBABWE,
00:12:51.667 --> 00:12:54.918
AND SO HE HAD EXPERIENCED
A LOT OF WITCHCRAFT AND HE
00:12:54.918 --> 00:12:57.417
WAS ACTUALLY ABLE TO GIVE
ME A LOT OF INSIGHT ON IT
00:12:57.417 --> 00:13:00.626
AND HE TOLD ME, HE SAID,
IT'S NOT ABOUT NECESSARILY
00:13:00.626 --> 00:13:03.417
IN OR OUT WITH DEMONS,
BECAUSE HE WOULD COUNSEL
00:13:03.417 --> 00:13:06.125
PEOPLE AND HE WOULD HAVE TO
CAST DEMONS OUT OF PEOPLE.
00:13:06.125 --> 00:13:07.999
THEY WOULD COME IN FOR AN
ISSUE AND SOMETIMES IT
00:13:07.999 --> 00:13:11.125
WASN'T MENTAL, IT WAS
SOMETHING SPIRITUAL.
00:13:11.125 --> 00:13:13.999
AND HE SAID, IT'S ABOUT
INFLUENCE IN YOUR LIFE.
00:13:13.999 --> 00:13:14.709
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:13:14.709 --> 00:13:15.999
REBECCA: SO YOU
CAN BE A CHRISTIAN,
00:13:15.999 --> 00:13:18.334
YOU CAN BE LIVING YOUR
LIFE FOR THE LORD,
00:13:18.334 --> 00:13:19.792
YOU CAN EVEN BE
SPIRIT-FILLED.
00:13:19.792 --> 00:13:20.292
DR. BRIDGES: RIGHT.
00:13:20.292 --> 00:13:22.751
REBECCA: AND THEY CAN
HAVE INFLUENCE OVER THIS
00:13:22.751 --> 00:13:24.667
ONE AREA OF YOUR LIFE.
00:13:24.667 --> 00:13:28.292
WHAT OTHER WAYS CAN
SOMEONE GIVE PERMISSION TO
00:13:28.292 --> 00:13:30.083
ALLOW A DEMONIC
SPIRIT TO ENTER?
00:13:30.083 --> 00:13:32.709
DR. BRIDGES: SO THIS
IS A GREAT QUESTION.
00:13:32.709 --> 00:13:35.459
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S
INTERESTING IS THE BIG
00:13:35.459 --> 00:13:37.501
DEBATE IN THE CHURCH
HAS ALWAYS BEEN,
00:13:37.501 --> 00:13:39.125
CAN A CHRISTIAN
HAVE A DEMON?
00:13:39.125 --> 00:13:40.792
NO, I'VE GOT
THE HOLY GHOST,
00:13:40.792 --> 00:13:41.999
I CAN'T HAVE THE DEMON.
00:13:41.999 --> 00:13:46.000
BUT YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT WHAT
THE BIBLE IS ACTUALLY SAYING.
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:48.334
WHEN WE READ THE KING JAMES
IN PARTICULAR USES
00:13:48.334 --> 00:13:49.292
THE WORD "POSSESSED".
00:13:49.292 --> 00:13:53.167
BUT A LOT OF TIMES, THAT WORD
"POSSESS" IS A MISTRANSLATION.
00:13:53.167 --> 00:13:56.999
THE WORD IS ACTUALLY
TO BE DEMONIZED.
00:13:56.999 --> 00:13:58.375
REBECCA: YES, THAT WAS
THE WORD THAT HE USED.
00:13:58.375 --> 00:14:00.709
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY,
TO BE DEMONIZED.
00:14:00.709 --> 00:14:04.999
AND THAT WORD, "DEMONIZE",
IT COMES FROM A GREEK WORD.
00:14:04.999 --> 00:14:10.709
IT MEANS TO BE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF A DEMONIC POWER.
00:14:10.709 --> 00:14:12.209
NOW, I TELL PEOPLE THIS.
00:14:12.209 --> 00:14:16.167
YOU CAN DRINK
ALCOHOL, RIGHT,
00:14:16.167 --> 00:14:19.292
AND BE UNDER
ITS INFLUENCE.
00:14:19.292 --> 00:14:20.834
YOU DON'T BECOME
THE ALCOHOL,
00:14:20.834 --> 00:14:23.125
THE ALCOHOL IS IN YOU,
IT'S INFLUENCING YOU.
00:14:23.125 --> 00:14:26.083
WE SEPARATE OURSELVES
FROM THE ALCOHOL, RIGHT.
00:14:26.083 --> 00:14:28.042
SO SAME THING WITH
A DEMONIC POWER.
00:14:28.042 --> 00:14:31.125
YOU HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO
SEPARATE THE INFLUENCE
00:14:31.125 --> 00:14:32.584
FROM THE PERSON, RIGHT.
00:14:32.584 --> 00:14:39.999
JUST BECAUSE I'M FEELING
THESE THINGS OR I'M BEING
00:14:39.999 --> 00:14:43.501
AFFECTED BY THESE THINGS,
THAT'S NOT MY IDENTITY,
00:14:43.501 --> 00:14:45.000
THAT'S NOT WHO I AM.
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:45.667
REBECCA: MM-HM.
00:14:45.667 --> 00:14:48.375
DR. BRIDGES: HERE'S HOW
A LOT OF THESE THINGS HAPPEN.
00:14:48.375 --> 00:14:53.042
WHEN WE COME INTO AGREEMENT WITH
THE DEMONIC POWER, RIGHT.
00:14:53.042 --> 00:14:56.542
SO THE ENEMY MAY BRING THE
SUGGESTION, YOU KNOW WHAT,
00:14:56.542 --> 00:14:59.999
I'M NOT --
NOBODY LIKES YOU. RIGHT.
00:14:59.999 --> 00:15:02.209
AND THIS THOUGHT
COMES TO YOUR HEAD.
00:15:02.209 --> 00:15:04.709
AND INSTEAD OF CASTING
IT DOWN, YOU SAY,
00:15:04.709 --> 00:15:06.083
YOU KNOW WHAT,
THAT'S KIND OF TRUE,
00:15:06.083 --> 00:15:07.999
BECAUSE I WENT OUT THE
OTHER DAY AND NOBODY WOULD
00:15:07.999 --> 00:15:09.375
SAY ANYTHING TO ME.
00:15:09.375 --> 00:15:11.834
WOW, YOU'RE RIGHT,
NOBODY DOES LIKE ME,
00:15:11.834 --> 00:15:13.042
I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT
THAT, NO MATTER.
00:15:13.042 --> 00:15:15.209
AND WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THAT
NOW YOU'RE COMING
00:15:15.209 --> 00:15:16.459
UNDER DEMONIC INFLUENCE.
00:15:16.459 --> 00:15:16.999
REBECCA: WOW.
00:15:16.999 --> 00:15:17.999
DR. BRIDGES: NOW A
SPIRIT OF REJECTION IS
00:15:17.999 --> 00:15:21.667
COMING IN, NOW A SPIRIT OF
DEPRESSION IS COMING IN,
00:15:21.667 --> 00:15:24.751
AND NOW YOU'VE OPENED
THE DOOR TO THAT POWER,
00:15:24.751 --> 00:15:27.876
AND THEN IT BECOMES
MORE PERVASIVE.
00:15:27.876 --> 00:15:31.626
NOW YOU FIND YOURSELF,
YOU CAN'T BREAK FREE FROM
00:15:31.626 --> 00:15:34.626
THESE THOUGHT
PATTERNS, YOU SEE.
00:15:34.626 --> 00:15:35.959
SO THAT'S HOW IT HAPPENS.
00:15:35.959 --> 00:15:37.584
THE ENEMY MAKES
A SUGGESTION,
00:15:37.584 --> 00:15:42.584
BUT HE NEEDS YOUR AGREEMENT FOR
THAT SUGGESTION TO MANIFEST.
00:15:42.584 --> 00:15:45.999
AND THAT'S REALLY
HOW IT WORKS.
00:15:45.999 --> 00:15:51.042
FOR MANY YEARS, I DEALT
WITH A SPIRIT OF REJECTION.
00:15:51.042 --> 00:15:51.667
REBECCA: YEAH.
00:15:51.667 --> 00:15:53.584
DR. BRIDGES: I WAS THE YOUNGEST.
00:15:53.584 --> 00:15:53.999
BABY.
00:15:53.999 --> 00:15:56.792
MY MOTHER GOT SICK WHEN
I WAS YOUNGER AND MOVED OUT
00:15:56.792 --> 00:15:57.334
OF THE HOUSE.
00:15:57.334 --> 00:15:59.667
MY FATHER WORKED
ALL THE TIME.
00:15:59.667 --> 00:16:01.083
AND I WAS ALWAYS THERE.
00:16:01.083 --> 00:16:04.209
AND THE DEVIL WOULD
MINISTER TO ME AND TELL
00:16:04.209 --> 00:16:07.999
ME, YOU KNOW WHAT,
PEOPLE DON'T LIKE YOU.
00:16:07.999 --> 00:16:09.999
AND ONE DAY I WAS PRAYING,
BECAUSE I WOULD ALWAYS
00:16:09.999 --> 00:16:13.876
TELL PEOPLE, GIRLS DIDN'T
LIKE ME AND NOBODY LIKED ME.
00:16:13.876 --> 00:16:17.626
AND THE HOLY SPIRIT
SAID, THAT'S A LIE.
00:16:17.626 --> 00:16:19.501
I WAS LIKE, HUH?
00:16:19.501 --> 00:16:22.501
HE SAID, THAT'S A LIE.
00:16:22.501 --> 00:16:24.751
HE SAID, WHO
TOLD YOU THAT?
00:16:24.751 --> 00:16:26.083
THAT DIDN'T COME FROM ME.
00:16:26.083 --> 00:16:29.459
THEN HE TOOK ME, ALMOST
LIKE A CAMERA REEL,
00:16:29.459 --> 00:16:32.999
THROUGHOUT MY LIFE, AND HE
SHOWED ME AT EVERY TURN
00:16:32.999 --> 00:16:38.042
THERE WAS SOMEONE THERE GOD USED
TO SHOW ME LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE.
00:16:38.042 --> 00:16:40.959
YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYING?
JUST ALL THROUGHOUT MY LIFE,
00:16:40.959 --> 00:16:41.792
HE SHOWED ME
DIFFERENT PEOPLE.
00:16:41.792 --> 00:16:44.417
HE SAID, YOU ACTUALLY
BELIEVED A LIE.
00:16:44.417 --> 00:16:47.083
AND THAT'S WHY THAT LIE
HAD POWER OVER YOU.
00:16:47.083 --> 00:16:49.876
SO ONE OF THE WAYS WE
BREAK FREE FROM THE ENEMY
00:16:49.876 --> 00:16:52.459
IS JOHN 8:32, AND YE
SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH,
00:16:52.459 --> 00:16:53.501
AND THE TRUTH
MAKES YOU FREE.
00:16:53.501 --> 00:16:56.209
SO YOU'VE GOT TO FALL OUT
OF AGREEMENT WITH THE LIE.
00:16:56.209 --> 00:16:58.999
THAT'S NOT TRUE,
THAT'S NOT WHO I AM.
00:16:58.999 --> 00:17:01.709
YEAH, DEMON, MY GREAT
GRANDMOTHER MAY HAVE
00:17:01.709 --> 00:17:04.000
INVITED YOU WITH THAT
SPIRIT OF SUICIDE,
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:07.125
BUT THERE'S A NEW
OWNER IN TOWN.
00:17:07.125 --> 00:17:09.334
THERE'S A NEW CUSTODIAN
OF THIS HOUSE,
00:17:09.334 --> 00:17:12.959
AND YOU DON'T HAVE
PERMISSION TO LIVE HERE.
00:17:12.959 --> 00:17:14.334
[ CHUCKLES ] GREAT GRANDMA MAY
HAVE INVITED YOU,
00:17:14.334 --> 00:17:17.999
BUT I'M THE CUSTODIAN NOW, AND
YOU CAN'T COME INTO THIS TEMPLE.
00:17:17.999 --> 00:17:20.459
AND SO THAT'S HOW WE
HAVE TO MAKE OUR STAND.
00:17:20.459 --> 00:17:23.167
REBECCA: SEE, YOU BRING UP
SUCH A GOOD POINT WHERE
00:17:23.167 --> 00:17:25.375
THE DEVIL CAN SPEAK TO US.
00:17:25.375 --> 00:17:25.999
DR. BRIDGES: YEAH.
00:17:25.999 --> 00:17:26.792
REBECCA: AND
AS BELIEVERS,
00:17:26.792 --> 00:17:28.959
WE HAVE TO GET FILLED WITH
THE HOLY SPIRIT AND WE
00:17:28.959 --> 00:17:30.292
HAVE TO KNOW GOD'S VOICE.
00:17:30.292 --> 00:17:31.000
DR. BRIDGES:
THERE YOU GO.
00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:32.501
REBECCA: WE HAVE TO
UNDERSTAND OUR VOICE,
00:17:32.501 --> 00:17:34.125
WHETHER IT'S OUR OWN
HEAD TALKING TO US,
00:17:34.125 --> 00:17:35.417
AND THEN THE
ENEMY'S VOICE.
00:17:35.417 --> 00:17:35.999
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:17:35.999 --> 00:17:38.751
REBECCA: AND I
REMEMBER BEING SEVEN,
00:17:38.751 --> 00:17:41.417
AND I DID NOT UNDERSTAND
IT UNTIL I WAS AN ADULT,
00:17:41.417 --> 00:17:44.209
BUT I REMEMBER BEING SEVEN
YEARS OLD AND THERE WAS A
00:17:44.209 --> 00:17:46.999
SPIRIT TELLING ME, OH,
YOU'RE GOING TO HELL AND
00:17:46.999 --> 00:17:49.999
TRYING TO -- FEAR FROM A
VERY YOUNG AGE TRYING TO
00:17:49.999 --> 00:17:52.999
CREEP IN AND
GET ME AFRAID.
00:17:52.999 --> 00:17:53.792
AND I REMEMBER
TELLING MY MOM,
00:17:53.792 --> 00:17:54.999
I JUST KEEP HEARING THAT
I'M GOING TO GO TO HELL,
00:17:54.999 --> 00:17:55.999
I'M NOT GOING
TO GO TO HEAVEN.
00:17:55.999 --> 00:17:59.626
AND NOW I CAN LOOK BACK ON
THAT AND UNDERSTAND, OH,
00:17:59.626 --> 00:18:02.542
THAT WAS A DEMONIC ATTACK
TO PUT FEAR IN MY LIFE SO
00:18:02.542 --> 00:18:06.042
THAT I WOULD FOLLOW A SPIRIT OF
FEAR AND NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:18:06.042 --> 00:18:07.250
SO THERE'S A LOT
OF DIFFERENT WAYS.
00:18:07.250 --> 00:18:09.999
BUT I FEEL LIKE THE
KEY THERE IS HAVING A
00:18:09.999 --> 00:18:13.292
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD
THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:18:13.292 --> 00:18:15.334
BECAUSE HE CAN
SPEAK TO THOSE LIES,
00:18:15.334 --> 00:18:18.667
HE CAN SHOW US THE TRUTH,
AND IT'S SO IMPORTANT.
00:18:18.667 --> 00:18:20.584
AND THE OTHER THING
I WAS THINKING ABOUT,
00:18:20.584 --> 00:18:22.501
BECAUSE THAT WAS
THROUGH A HURT,
00:18:22.501 --> 00:18:25.501
WAS HOW IMPORTANT IT IS
NOT TO GET OFFENDED AND TO
00:18:25.501 --> 00:18:27.250
FALL INTO UNFORGIVENESS,
BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S A
00:18:27.250 --> 00:18:31.626
VERY COMMON WAY PEOPLE
GET DEMONIC STRONGHOLDS
00:18:31.626 --> 00:18:32.459
IN THEIR LIFE.
00:18:32.459 --> 00:18:33.542
DR. BRIDGES:
ABSOLUTELY.
00:18:33.542 --> 00:18:34.501
REBECCA: BECAUSE
THEY GET REALLY HURT,
00:18:34.501 --> 00:18:36.167
IT'S A REAL THING,
IT'S REAL FEELINGS,
00:18:36.167 --> 00:18:37.792
IT'S NOT TO UNDERMINE
HOW THEY FEEL,
00:18:37.792 --> 00:18:39.999
BUT THEN THEY DON'T
WANT TO LET IT GO.
00:18:39.999 --> 00:18:40.584
DR. BRIDGES: YEAH.
00:18:40.584 --> 00:18:46.876
ROMANS 16 REFERS TO
OFFENSE AS THE BAIT OF SATAN.
00:18:46.876 --> 00:18:52.709
IT'S THE WORD FOR OFFENSE COMES
FROM THE GREEK WORDSKANDALON.
00:18:52.709 --> 00:18:54.999
AND WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT
THE WAY THE ENEMY GETS US
00:18:54.999 --> 00:19:01.334
CAUGHT IN ASKANDALONOR
A SCANDAL IS WHEN HE LURES US
00:19:01.334 --> 00:19:02.918
WITH OFFENSE.
00:19:02.918 --> 00:19:06.167
IT'S ACTUALLY IT'S
LIKE A TRAP, RIGHT.
00:19:06.167 --> 00:19:08.501
AND THE TRAP LEADS
TO DEMONIZATION,
00:19:08.501 --> 00:19:10.959
AND IN SOME
INSTANCES, DEATH.
00:19:10.959 --> 00:19:15.292
AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE
TO GUARD OUR HEART.
00:19:15.292 --> 00:19:17.999
IF YOU STUDY MATTHEW 18,
JESUS TELLS THE PARABLE OF
00:19:17.999 --> 00:19:20.125
THE SERVANTS,
ONE WAS FORGIVEN,
00:19:20.125 --> 00:19:22.709
THE OTHER ONE LEFT AND
TRIED TO COLLECT A DEBT
00:19:22.709 --> 00:19:24.999
FROM HIS FELLOW SERVANT.
00:19:24.999 --> 00:19:29.459
AND THERE'S A VERSE THERE
IN MATTHEW 18, IT SAYS,
00:19:29.459 --> 00:19:31.209
AND THE LORD WAS WROTH
WITH THE SERVANT,
00:19:31.209 --> 00:19:35.876
OR ANGRY WITH THE SERVANT,
AND THREW HIM INTO PRISON
00:19:35.876 --> 00:19:38.999
AND DELIVERED HIM
TO THE TORMENTORS.
00:19:38.999 --> 00:19:41.042
AND HE WAS NOT RELEASED
UNTIL HE PAID THE DEBT.
00:19:41.042 --> 00:19:44.209
SO THOSE TORMENTORS ARE
THOSE FAMILIAR SPIRITS.
00:19:44.209 --> 00:19:48.999
WHEN WE VIOLATE THE
SPIRITUAL LAW OF LOVE,
00:19:48.999 --> 00:19:52.083
RIGHT, AND WE
OPERATE IN HATRED,
00:19:52.083 --> 00:19:55.042
JOHN TELLS US THAT WHOEVER
HATES HIS BROTHER WALKS IN
00:19:55.042 --> 00:19:58.667
DARKNESS AND DOESN'T KNOW
WHERE HE STUMBLES, YOU SEE.
00:19:58.667 --> 00:20:01.459
THAT DARKNESS IS WHEN WE
OPEN UP OUR LIVES TO
00:20:01.459 --> 00:20:02.918
THOSE DEMONIC POWERS.
00:20:02.918 --> 00:20:03.542
THAT'S WHAT I TELL PEOPLE.
00:20:03.542 --> 00:20:06.334
ONE OF THE BEST THINGS
YOU CAN DO TO GET DELIVERED IS
00:20:06.334 --> 00:20:07.918
JUST FORGIVE EVERYBODY.
00:20:07.918 --> 00:20:08.334
REBECCA: YEAH.
00:20:08.334 --> 00:20:09.209
DR. BRIDGES: I
DON'T CARE WHO IT IS.
00:20:09.209 --> 00:20:11.334
FORGIVE THE GUY THAT SLAPPED
YOU WHEN YOU WERE ON THE
00:20:11.334 --> 00:20:15.334
PLAYGROUND AT
THREE YEARS OLD,
00:20:15.334 --> 00:20:18.792
FORGIVE THE PERSON THAT
STOLE YOUR TWINKIE WHEN
00:20:18.792 --> 00:20:20.999
YOU WERE JUST -- JUST
FORGIVE EVERYBODY.
00:20:20.999 --> 00:20:22.417
AND IT'S A SIMPLE PRAYER
THAT I PRAY, I SAY, LORD,
00:20:22.417 --> 00:20:27.999
I FORGIVE ALL OF THOSE WHO HAVE
SINNED AGAINST ME OR WRONGED ME.
00:20:27.999 --> 00:20:31.999
I FREELY FORGIVE THEM AS AN ACT
OF MY OWN WILL AND VOLITION.
00:20:31.999 --> 00:20:33.584
AS I WOULD HAVE
YOU TO FORGIVE ME,
00:20:33.584 --> 00:20:34.792
I FORGIVE THEM NOW.
00:20:34.792 --> 00:20:37.918
AND THAT'S ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT KEEPS US CLEAR
00:20:37.918 --> 00:20:42.125
OF THESE LIENS, THESE
CHARGES AGAINST US IN
00:20:42.125 --> 00:20:42.918
THE SPIRITUAL REALM.
00:20:42.918 --> 00:20:47.292
WE HAVE TO KEEP OUR LIVES
CLEAN FROM ANY DEBTS.
00:20:47.292 --> 00:20:50.000
THAT'S WHY THE BIBLE SAYS,
WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTS,
00:20:50.000 --> 00:20:53.417
RIGHT, FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS
AS WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS.
00:20:53.417 --> 00:20:56.375
AND SO I BELIEVE THAT
YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT,
00:20:56.375 --> 00:20:57.999
I BELIEVE THAT
A LOT OF PEOPLE,
00:20:57.999 --> 00:20:59.999
BECAUSE WE TALK
ABOUT DEMONIZATION,
00:20:59.999 --> 00:21:02.375
I THINK ONE OF THE BIGGEST
DEMONIC STRONGHOLDS IN THE
00:21:02.375 --> 00:21:04.042
CHURCH IS OFFENSE
RIGHT NOW.
00:21:04.042 --> 00:21:04.667
REBECCA: YEAH.
00:21:04.667 --> 00:21:06.626
DR. BRIDGES: PEOPLE,
IT'S ALMOST LIKE OFFENSE
00:21:06.626 --> 00:21:08.167
IS A SPIRITUAL GIFT.
00:21:08.167 --> 00:21:09.999
IT'S LIKE PEOPLE JUST.
00:21:09.999 --> 00:21:10.709
REBECCA:
IT'S SO COMMON.
00:21:10.709 --> 00:21:11.918
DR. BRIDGES:
IT'S SO COMMON.
00:21:11.918 --> 00:21:12.999
REBECCA: AND
IT BLINDS PEOPLE.
00:21:12.999 --> 00:21:14.167
DR. BRIDGES:
OH, MY GOD.
00:21:14.167 --> 00:21:16.834
REBECCA: GIFTED PEOPLE,
SEASONED PEOPLE.
00:21:16.834 --> 00:21:17.667
DR. BRIDGES: OH, MAN.
00:21:17.667 --> 00:21:21.584
I'M TELLING YOU, AS A
PASTOR, I'VE SEEN IT.
00:21:21.584 --> 00:21:22.999
I'VE SEEN IT TIME
AND TIME AGAIN.
00:21:22.999 --> 00:21:26.667
AND WHAT HAPPENS OVER TIME
IS THAT THE PERSON WILL
00:21:26.667 --> 00:21:31.167
CONFLATE THE VOICE OF OFFENSE
FOR THE VOICE OF GOD.
00:21:31.167 --> 00:21:31.876
REBECCA: I KNOW.
00:21:31.876 --> 00:21:32.250
I'VE SEEN IT.
00:21:32.250 --> 00:21:34.999
DR. BRIDGES: AND THEY
WILL HEAR THIS INSTRUCTION
00:21:34.999 --> 00:21:38.083
AND IT WILL BE TOTALLY
COMING FROM THE DEMONIC.
00:21:38.083 --> 00:21:38.999
BUT BECAUSE
THEY'RE OFFENDED,
00:21:38.999 --> 00:21:41.042
THEY CAN NO LONGER
DISTINGUISH GOD'S VOICE.
00:21:41.042 --> 00:21:44.751
REBECCA: OH, THAT'S WHY
IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO FORGIVE.
00:21:44.751 --> 00:21:48.542
THE OTHER THING I WAS
THINKING ABOUT WAS,
00:21:48.542 --> 00:21:50.501
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE
UNDER THE INFLUENCE,
00:21:50.501 --> 00:21:54.792
AND THIS CAN ACTUALLY HELP
GIVE CLARITY TO DIFFERENT
00:21:54.792 --> 00:21:57.542
SITUATIONS YOU'RE IN, BUT
THE DEVIL CAN ATTACK YOU
00:21:57.542 --> 00:22:00.250
IN ONE WAY BY DEMONS WHO
ARE COMING AND SPEAKING TO
00:22:00.250 --> 00:22:03.999
YOU, BUT ANOTHER WAY
THE DEVIL ATTACKS PEOPLE,
00:22:03.999 --> 00:22:05.918
AND I THINK HE LOVES TO
USE THIS ATTACK BECAUSE
00:22:05.918 --> 00:22:09.834
IT'S MORE PERSONAL, IS HE
WILL HAVE INFLUENCE OVER
00:22:09.834 --> 00:22:12.918
DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN YOUR
LIFE AND THEY WILL COME TO
00:22:12.918 --> 00:22:16.959
YOU AND THEY'LL SLANDER
YOU OR THEY'LL SAY LIKE
00:22:16.959 --> 00:22:18.459
CUTTING THINGS TO YOU.
00:22:18.459 --> 00:22:19.083
DR. BRIDGES: OH, YEAH.
00:22:19.083 --> 00:22:20.125
REBECCA: AND I REMEMBER
DEALING WITH THIS WITH
00:22:20.125 --> 00:22:21.792
SOMEONE AND GOD SPEAKING
TO ME AND SAYING ABOUT
00:22:21.792 --> 00:22:25.999
THIS INDIVIDUAL, THE DEVIL'S
USING THIS PERSON
00:22:25.999 --> 00:22:26.999
AS A MOUTHPIECE.
00:22:26.999 --> 00:22:28.334
DR. BRIDGES:
THAT'S GOOD.
00:22:28.334 --> 00:22:31.459
REBECCA: BECAUSE I
WAS TAKING IT PERSONALLY
00:22:31.459 --> 00:22:32.501
BECAUSE I ONLY
SAW THE PERSON,
00:22:32.501 --> 00:22:34.167
AND GOD CLARIFIED IN
THE SITUATION, NO,
00:22:34.167 --> 00:22:36.626
THE DEVIL'S USING THIS
PERSON AS A MOUTHPIECE.
00:22:36.626 --> 00:22:38.459
AND YOU THINK ABOUT
JESUS TELLING PETER,
00:22:38.459 --> 00:22:40.209
GET BEHIND ME, SATAN
IN THAT MOMENT.
00:22:40.209 --> 00:22:43.250
THE DEVIL EVEN USED PETER
TO TRY TO SPEAK SOMETHING
00:22:43.250 --> 00:22:44.918
TO JESUS THAT WAS A LIE.
00:22:44.918 --> 00:22:47.999
AND SO ONE THING I
WANT TO TELL PEOPLE IS,
00:22:47.999 --> 00:22:50.334
YOU NEED TO ASK
THE HOLY SPIRIT,
00:22:50.334 --> 00:22:52.876
BUT IT'S TO GIVE INSIGHT
THAT EVEN THE DEVIL CAN
00:22:52.876 --> 00:22:57.999
USE PEOPLE IN OUR LIFE TO,
AND THEN IT'S MORE HURTFUL
00:22:57.999 --> 00:23:01.834
BECAUSE IT'S IN A PERSON,
BUT IT'S NOT THAT PERSON,
00:23:01.834 --> 00:23:05.292
IT'S THAT INFLUENCE
OVER THAT PERSON.
00:23:05.292 --> 00:23:08.501
AND SO PEOPLE
WHO SLANDER YOU,
00:23:08.501 --> 00:23:09.417
PEOPLE WHO SAY
CUTTING THINGS,
00:23:09.417 --> 00:23:12.751
PEOPLE IN LEADERSHIP THAT
ARE VERY CONTROLLING,
00:23:12.751 --> 00:23:16.999
THAT CAN BE A SPIRIT AND
THEY'RE TRYING TO CONTROL YOU.
00:23:16.999 --> 00:23:18.999
AND ALSO A
RELIGIOUS SPIRIT.
00:23:18.999 --> 00:23:19.542
DR. BRIDGES: OH, BOY.
00:23:19.542 --> 00:23:20.999
REBECCA: THAT'S VERY
COMMON IN THE CHURCH.
00:23:20.999 --> 00:23:22.167
DR. BRIDGES: HAVE YOU
READ MY BOOK ALREADY?
00:23:22.167 --> 00:23:22.999
NO, I'M JUST ASKING.
00:23:22.999 --> 00:23:23.501
[ LAUGHING ]
00:23:23.501 --> 00:23:25.584
REBECCA: AND SO A LOT
OF TIMES WHEN PEOPLE TELL
00:23:25.584 --> 00:23:27.792
ME THEIR EXPERIENCES
AND THEY'RE LIKE,
00:23:27.792 --> 00:23:29.375
I HAD SUCH A BAD
EXPERIENCE IN CHURCH,
00:23:29.375 --> 00:23:31.999
AND I WAS LIKE, WELL,
THAT WASN'T GOD,
00:23:31.999 --> 00:23:33.584
THAT WAS ACTUALLY DEMONIC.
00:23:33.584 --> 00:23:34.125
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:23:34.125 --> 00:23:36.999
REBECCA: AND THEY
DON'T KNOW AT THE TIME.
00:23:36.999 --> 00:23:39.334
AND I THINK A LOT OF
EXPERIENCES I'VE HAD WITH
00:23:39.334 --> 00:23:40.999
PEOPLE, IT WAS A
RELIGIOUS SPIRIT,
00:23:40.999 --> 00:23:43.083
AND THEN YOU SEE THE FRUIT
OF IT AND YOU'RE LIKE, OH,
00:23:43.083 --> 00:23:44.918
THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE.
00:23:44.918 --> 00:23:45.626
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:23:45.626 --> 00:23:46.667
REBECCA: SO ONCE AGAIN,
IT GOES TO WHAT YOU'RE
00:23:46.667 --> 00:23:48.417
SAYING, THERE ARE PEOPLE
THAT CAN HAVE THESE
00:23:48.417 --> 00:23:50.999
DEMONIC INFLUENCES, AND
THAT'S WHY YOU NEED THE
00:23:50.999 --> 00:23:52.918
HOLY SPIRIT EVEN TO
DISTINGUISH THOSE
00:23:52.918 --> 00:23:55.667
SITUATIONS SO YOU KNOW
HOW TO DEAL WITH IT.
00:23:55.667 --> 00:23:56.709
BECAUSE THERE'S A
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DEALING
00:23:56.709 --> 00:24:00.626
WITH A PERSON AND DEALING WITH
A DEMON INFLUENCING A PERSON.
00:24:00.626 --> 00:24:01.459
DR. BRIDGES:
THAT'S POWERFUL.
00:24:01.459 --> 00:24:03.751
ONE OF THE THINGS I TELL
PEOPLE ALL THE TIME IS
00:24:03.751 --> 00:24:06.999
THIS PHRASE:
IT'S NOT PERSONAL.
00:24:06.999 --> 00:24:07.876
REBECCA: WOW, SO GOOD.
00:24:07.876 --> 00:24:10.834
DR. BRIDGES: AND YOU'VE GOT TO
GET THAT DOWN IN YOUR SPIRIT.
00:24:10.834 --> 00:24:12.626
IF YOU'RE GOING TO LIVE
THIS LIFE WITHOUT GOING
00:24:12.626 --> 00:24:17.918
INSANE, YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE
REVELATION OF IT'S NOT PERSONAL.
00:24:17.918 --> 00:24:20.000
IT WAS SOMETHING YOU SAID
EARLIER I WANTED TO SPEAK
00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:21.999
TO, BRINGING IT TO THIS.
00:24:21.999 --> 00:24:26.334
THERE'S SEVERAL WAYS
GOD SPEAKS TO PEOPLE,
00:24:26.334 --> 00:24:27.042
SPEAKS TO HIS CHILDREN.
00:24:27.042 --> 00:24:31.459
SO ONE OF THE WAYS GOD SPEAKS
TO US IS THROUGH HIS WORD.
00:24:31.459 --> 00:24:37.250
HE SPEAKS TO US BY THE
PROMPTINGS OF HIS SPIRIT. OKAY.
00:24:37.250 --> 00:24:40.792
HE CAN SPEAK TO US
THROUGH PEOPLE, RIGHT.
00:24:40.792 --> 00:24:43.999
HE CAN SPEAK TO US THROUGH
DREAMS AND VISIONS,
00:24:43.999 --> 00:24:45.250
THINGS LIKE THAT.
00:24:45.250 --> 00:24:48.000
OR HE CAN SPEAK TO US
THROUGH CIRCUMSTANCES.
00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:50.584
SO THE DEVIL'S A
COUNTERFEITER, RIGHT.
00:24:50.584 --> 00:24:53.999
SO JUST LIKE GOD SPEAKS
TO US IN THOSE WAYS,
00:24:53.999 --> 00:24:56.417
THE ENEMY ALSO SPEAKS
THROUGH THOSE WAYS.
00:24:56.417 --> 00:24:57.999
HE CAN GIVE PEOPLE
FALSE WORDS,
00:24:57.999 --> 00:25:03.999
HE CAN GIVE PEOPLE PROMPTINGS
OUT OF THEIR OWN BROKENNESS.
00:25:03.999 --> 00:25:06.792
HE CAN GIVE PEOPLE
FALSE DREAMS AND VISIONS
00:25:06.792 --> 00:25:08.000
OR NIGHTMARES, RIGHT.
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:14.000
OR LIKE YOU TALKED ABOUT,
HE CAN CAUSE US TO BELIEVE
00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:17.999
SOMETHING WRONG BASED
UPON OUR CIRCUMSTANCES.
00:25:17.999 --> 00:25:19.334
IN OTHER WORDS, A PERSON
CAN LOOK AT THEIR
00:25:19.334 --> 00:25:22.042
CIRCUMSTANCE AND THEIR
CIRCUMSTANCE CAN SPEAK TO
00:25:22.042 --> 00:25:26.876
THEM, BUT IT MAY NOT BE WHAT GOD
IS SAYING ABOUT WHO THEY ARE.
00:25:26.876 --> 00:25:28.501
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE
TO BE VERY CAREFUL.
00:25:28.501 --> 00:25:31.083
BECAUSE YOU DON'T ALLOW
YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES TO BE
00:25:31.083 --> 00:25:34.751
THE FINAL AUTHORITY ABOUT
WHO GOD SAYS YOU ARE.
00:25:34.751 --> 00:25:36.876
WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
FAMILIAR SPIRITS,
00:25:36.876 --> 00:25:38.999
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S
INTERESTING IS THAT ALL MY
00:25:38.999 --> 00:25:41.918
LIFE, I DEALT WITH
JEALOUSY AND BETRAYAL.
00:25:41.918 --> 00:25:43.125
FROM THE TIME I
WAS A LITTLE KID,
00:25:43.125 --> 00:25:43.999
I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND IT.
00:25:43.999 --> 00:25:45.959
I SAID, THIS DOESN'T
MAKE ANY SENSE.
00:25:45.959 --> 00:25:49.667
PEOPLE WOULD ATTACK ME
AND WOULD BE JEALOUS,
00:25:49.667 --> 00:25:51.000
AND SOMETIMES I'M LIKE,
WHAT ARE Y'ALL EVEN
00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:54.334
JEALOUS OF, I WOULDN'T
HAVE ANYTHING TO BE JEALOUS OF.
00:25:54.334 --> 00:25:56.167
I WANT WHAT YOU HAVE.
00:25:56.167 --> 00:25:57.999
BUT IT WAS A SPIRIT.
00:25:57.999 --> 00:26:00.125
AND I WANT TO SHOW YOU
THIS BECAUSE I THINK IT'S
00:26:00.125 --> 00:26:02.334
GOING TO HELP SOMEBODY.
00:26:02.334 --> 00:26:08.125
WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT THOSE
SPIRITS ARE ASSIGNED TO
00:26:08.125 --> 00:26:13.584
DISCOURAGE YOU AND KEEP
YOU OUT OF YOUR PURPOSE.
00:26:13.584 --> 00:26:15.999
BECAUSE HERE'S THE THING.
00:26:15.999 --> 00:26:18.999
IF I DON'T WANT TO GO INTO
MINISTRY BECAUSE I'VE
00:26:18.999 --> 00:26:20.999
ALREADY FACED
ENOUGH BETRAYAL,
00:26:20.999 --> 00:26:23.042
I'VE ALREADY FACED
ENOUGH REJECTION.
00:26:23.042 --> 00:26:24.667
AND THAT'S WHAT
THE ENEMY WANTS,
00:26:24.667 --> 00:26:27.876
FOR YOU TO REJECT
YOUR CALLING AND YOUR
00:26:27.876 --> 00:26:30.999
ASSIGNMENT ON ACCOUNT
OF THE REJECTION THAT
00:26:30.999 --> 00:26:32.209
YOU'RE GOING THROUGH.
00:26:32.209 --> 00:26:35.250
AND SO THE LORD SHOWED
ME THIS, HE SAID, SON,
00:26:35.250 --> 00:26:37.999
HE SHOWED ME THE DEMONIC
CONNECTED TO THIS THAT
00:26:37.999 --> 00:26:43.000
THE DEVIL WAS WORKING THROUGH
SITUATIONS AND PEOPLE TO
00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:46.334
CAUSE YOU TO EMBRACE A
SPIRIT OF REJECTION AND
00:26:46.334 --> 00:26:50.042
ULTIMATELY REJECT MY
PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE.
00:26:50.042 --> 00:26:53.375
AND I DIDN'T REALIZE
THIS UNTIL YEARS AGO.
00:26:53.375 --> 00:26:58.000
I HAD A PASTOR AT MY CHURCH
WHO CAME TO SPEAK FOR ME.
00:26:58.000 --> 00:27:03.209
AND GOD TOLD ME, WE HAD
ALREADY BLESSED SOME OF
00:27:03.209 --> 00:27:04.959
THE HONORARIUM,
BUT THE LORD SAYS,
00:27:04.959 --> 00:27:07.542
GIVE THEM AN ADDITIONAL
WHATEVER THE AMOUNT HE
00:27:07.542 --> 00:27:08.626
TOLD ME TO DO.
00:27:08.626 --> 00:27:10.999
THE NEXT MORNING,
HE GIVES ME A CALL.
00:27:10.999 --> 00:27:16.250
HE SAYS, I HAD A DREAM
THAT I WAS IN A CAR AND
00:27:16.250 --> 00:27:21.042
THE POLICE PULLED ME OVER
AND THERE WERE GUNS IN MY CAR.
00:27:21.042 --> 00:27:23.751
HE SAYS, I IMMEDIATELY
KNEW WHAT THE DREAM MEANT
00:27:23.751 --> 00:27:24.667
AND I HAD THE CAR.
00:27:24.667 --> 00:27:25.292
I SAID, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
00:27:25.292 --> 00:27:29.501
HE SAID, MAN, I'VE
BEEN SLANDERING YOU.
00:27:29.501 --> 00:27:32.417
I'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT
YOU LIKE A DOG, MAN.
00:27:32.417 --> 00:27:36.999
HE SAID, AND GOD TOLD ME
THAT BECAUSE OF WHAT I
00:27:36.999 --> 00:27:41.250
DID, I WAS UNDER
ARREST SPIRITUALLY.
00:27:41.250 --> 00:27:44.209
HE SAID, I NEEDED TO
REPENT IMMEDIATELY AND
00:27:44.209 --> 00:27:46.999
DISCHARGE THIS
CLAIM AGAINST ME.
00:27:46.999 --> 00:27:48.083
AND THEN HE SAID
TO ME, HE SAYS,
00:27:48.083 --> 00:27:52.999
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN
GOING ON IN MY FAMILY LINE
00:27:52.999 --> 00:27:53.959
FOR YEARS.
00:27:53.959 --> 00:27:56.876
THE MEN IN MY FAMILY
ARE ALWAYS OFFENDED,
00:27:56.876 --> 00:28:00.375
THEY'RE ALWAYS GET INTO
THESE THINGS WHERE THEY
00:28:00.375 --> 00:28:02.792
FEEL JEALOUS OF ANOTHER
PERSON OR THEY GET
00:28:02.792 --> 00:28:04.292
OFFENDED WITH
ANOTHER PERSON.
00:28:04.292 --> 00:28:06.792
AND IT WAS ALL BASED ON,
HE SAID THAT HE THOUGHT
00:28:06.792 --> 00:28:10.501
THAT I HAD STOLEN HIS
SERMONS AND HIS CONTENT
00:28:10.501 --> 00:28:11.375
AND ALL THIS
KIND OF STUFF.
00:28:11.375 --> 00:28:14.751
WE DON'T NECESSARILY THINK
OF THAT AS DEMONIC BECAUSE
00:28:14.751 --> 00:28:19.999
IT DOESN'T HAVE HORNS, IT'S NOT
IN A RED JUMPSUIT WITH A TAIL.
00:28:19.999 --> 00:28:24.250
BUT THAT IS ABSOLUTELY
FROM THE HOSTS OF HELL.
00:28:24.250 --> 00:28:26.375
STRIFE, CONFUSION --
00:28:26.375 --> 00:28:26.999
REBECCA: GOSSIP.
00:28:26.999 --> 00:28:28.042
DR. BRIDGES:
-- JEALOUSY.
00:28:28.042 --> 00:28:28.999
SLANDER.
00:28:28.999 --> 00:28:29.292
GOSSIP.
00:28:29.292 --> 00:28:33.709
SO THESE WERE FAMILIAR
SPIRITS WORKING IN HIS
00:28:33.709 --> 00:28:39.417
LIFE AND IN MINE TO
KEEP US IN BONDAGE.
00:28:39.417 --> 00:28:40.709
AND SO WHEN I
UNDERSTOOD THAT,
00:28:40.709 --> 00:28:42.626
I WENT BEFORE THE LORD
AND I SAID, FATHER,
00:28:42.626 --> 00:28:45.918
I FALL OUT OF AGREEMENT
WITH ANYTHING,
00:28:45.918 --> 00:28:48.999
ANY SLANDER, ANYTHING
I'VE BELIEVED,
00:28:48.999 --> 00:28:53.834
ANYTHING THAT I HAVE
ACCEPTED AS NORMAL THAT'S
00:28:53.834 --> 00:28:55.667
NOT SUPPOSED TO BE NORMAL.
00:28:55.667 --> 00:28:57.417
AND I BREAK
AGREEMENT WITH THAT.
00:28:57.417 --> 00:29:00.999
AND WHEN I STARTED TO DO THAT,
IT STOPPED HAPPENING.
00:29:00.999 --> 00:29:01.999
IT JUST STOPPED.
00:29:01.999 --> 00:29:03.834
BECAUSE I REALIZE THAT
IT WASN'T JUST ABOUT THE
00:29:03.834 --> 00:29:06.999
PEOPLE BECAUSE YOU CAN GO
TO DIFFERENT CITIES AND
00:29:06.999 --> 00:29:08.999
YOU SEE THE SAME DEMON
IN DIFFERENT PEOPLE.
00:29:08.999 --> 00:29:11.542
YOU GO TO -- YOU MOVE TO A
DIFFERENT CAMPUS AND SOME
00:29:11.542 --> 00:29:14.667
PEOPLE DIVORCE ONE SPOUSE
AND MARRY ONE JUST LIKE THEM.
00:29:14.667 --> 00:29:17.292
AND SO IT'S BASICALLY A
SPIRITUAL THING THAT WE
00:29:17.292 --> 00:29:20.999
HAVE TO UNDERSTAND ITS
ROOT SYSTEM AND BREAK THE
00:29:20.999 --> 00:29:24.334
ROOT SYSTEM, AND THEN WE STARTED
TO EXPERIENCE FREEDOM.
00:29:24.334 --> 00:29:26.626
REBECCA: WHAT DID YOU
DO WHEN YOU REALIZED THAT
00:29:26.626 --> 00:29:29.334
THE ENEMY WAS TRYING TO
GET YOU TO AGREE WITH THE
00:29:29.334 --> 00:29:31.459
SPIRIT OF REJECTION
IN PARTICULAR?
00:29:31.459 --> 00:29:33.292
DR. BRIDGES: OH,
THAT WAS A BIG ONE.
00:29:33.292 --> 00:29:35.999
I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU
HOW IT WORKED WITH ME.
00:29:35.999 --> 00:29:38.584
WHEN I WAS FIRST
STARTED PREACHING,
00:29:38.584 --> 00:29:41.584
I WOULD GO PREACH PLACES
AND NOBODY WOULD SHOW UP.
00:29:41.584 --> 00:29:43.501
REBECCA: OH,
THAT WOULD KILL ME.
00:29:43.501 --> 00:29:44.876
DR. BRIDGES:
AND I WAS SO HURT.
00:29:44.876 --> 00:29:48.375
I SAID, GOD, I KNOW
I'M ANOINTED, I KNOW.
00:29:48.375 --> 00:29:50.209
AND GOD SAID TO
ME, HE SAID, SON,
00:29:50.209 --> 00:29:52.876
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE PEOPLE.
00:29:52.876 --> 00:29:54.876
HE SAID, IT'S ABOUT YOU.
00:29:54.876 --> 00:29:58.417
HE SAID, YOU HAVE COME
INTO AGREEMENT WITH THE
00:29:58.417 --> 00:30:03.751
LIE THAT SAYS NO ONE
WANTS TO HEAR YOU,
00:30:03.751 --> 00:30:05.999
NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR
WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.
00:30:05.999 --> 00:30:08.250
SO NO MATTER HOW
GREAT MY MESSAGE WAS,
00:30:08.250 --> 00:30:09.999
I HAD ALREADY COME INTO
AGREEMENT WITH THAT
00:30:09.999 --> 00:30:14.042
DEMONIC POWER OF DECEPTION
THAT SAYS, WELL,
00:30:14.042 --> 00:30:15.459
I DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING TO SAY.
00:30:15.459 --> 00:30:17.792
AND THE MINUTE I
RENOUNCED THAT,
00:30:17.792 --> 00:30:20.375
I LITERALLY STOOD IN THE MIRROR,
I SAID, THAT'S A LIE.
00:30:20.375 --> 00:30:25.834
I SAID, I AM NOT REJECTED
AND I DO HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY.
00:30:25.834 --> 00:30:28.999
I HAVE A VOICE, AND PEOPLE
NEED TO HEAR THE MESSAGE
00:30:28.999 --> 00:30:29.667
GOD'S GIVEN ME.
00:30:29.667 --> 00:30:31.751
AND WHEN I DID THAT,
I WOULD GO PLACES,
00:30:31.751 --> 00:30:33.501
AND PEOPLE WOULD
JUST SHOW UP.
00:30:33.501 --> 00:30:34.999
SO IT SHOWS YOU THE
SPIRITUAL -- THERE'S SO
00:30:34.999 --> 00:30:38.918
MANY SPIRITUAL THINGS THAT
WE'RE UNAWARE OF THAT ARE
00:30:38.918 --> 00:30:41.083
AFFECTING OUR LIVES
THAT SOMETIMES WE ARE
00:30:41.083 --> 00:30:45.667
UNKNOWINGLY OR UNWITTINGLY
IN AGREEMENT WITH BECAUSE
00:30:45.667 --> 00:30:49.999
WE DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHAT'S BEHIND IT.
00:30:49.999 --> 00:30:50.999
REBECCA: MM-HM, YEAH.
00:30:50.999 --> 00:30:53.042
DR. BRIDGES: FEAR,
DOUBT, UNBELIEF.
00:30:53.042 --> 00:30:56.209
LOOK AT THE CULTURE, LOOK AT
WHAT'S GOING ON RIGHT NOW
00:30:56.209 --> 00:30:57.417
IN SOCIETY.
00:30:57.417 --> 00:31:00.292
THERE'S A LOT OF DEMONIC
POWER BEHIND THIS.
00:31:00.292 --> 00:31:03.999
AND THE CHURCH HAS TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE NOT IN
00:31:03.999 --> 00:31:04.999
AGREEMENT WITH IT.
00:31:04.999 --> 00:31:05.959
WE HAVE A SAYING,
YOU KNOW WHAT,
00:31:05.959 --> 00:31:07.667
WE DON'T AGREE WITH THIS.
00:31:07.667 --> 00:31:10.834
THIS IS NOT GOD, AND WE
RENOUNCE ANY AGREEMENT
00:31:10.834 --> 00:31:13.667
THAT WE HAVE WITH THAT SO
WE DON'T WANT TO GIVE THE
00:31:13.667 --> 00:31:15.667
ENEMY ANY LEGAL GROUNDS.
00:31:15.667 --> 00:31:16.250
REBECCA: ANY FOOTHOLD.
00:31:16.250 --> 00:31:17.083
DR. BRIDGES:
YEAH, ANY FOOTHOLD.
00:31:17.083 --> 00:31:18.209
REBECCA: AND SO IT'S
JUST AS SIMPLE AS WHEN THE
00:31:18.209 --> 00:31:20.999
HOLY SPIRIT REVEALS IT
TO YOU, YOU RENOUNCE IT,
00:31:20.999 --> 00:31:22.999
YOU REPENT FOR COMING
INTO AGREEMENT IN IT,
00:31:22.999 --> 00:31:26.167
AND THEN YOU TRUTH
OF WHAT GOD IS TELLING YOU.
00:31:26.167 --> 00:31:26.999
DR. BRIDGES: THAT'S IT.
00:31:26.999 --> 00:31:27.999
REBECCA:
IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
00:31:27.999 --> 00:31:28.834
DR. BRIDGES:
IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
00:31:28.834 --> 00:31:29.999
REBECCA: IT'S NOT LIKE
THIS HUGE, BIG THING.
00:31:29.999 --> 00:31:31.542
DR. BRIDGES: AND I THINK THAT'S
WHAT INTIMIDATES PEOPLE.
00:31:31.542 --> 00:31:33.876
THEY THINK, OH, MAN, GREEN
STUFF IS ABOUT TO START
00:31:33.876 --> 00:31:35.959
COMING OUT OF MY
EYEBALLS, OH, NO.
00:31:35.959 --> 00:31:38.167
AND SO PEOPLE DON'T WANT
TO GET ANYWHERE NEAR
00:31:38.167 --> 00:31:40.167
DELIVERANCE BECAUSE
THEY SAY, NO,
00:31:40.167 --> 00:31:41.834
THEY THINK ABOUT
THE EXORCIST.
00:31:41.834 --> 00:31:45.459
BUT WHEN YOU THINK OF IT
AS BEING LIBERATED FROM A
00:31:45.459 --> 00:31:48.459
LIE, THAT'S WHAT
DELIVERANCE IS,
00:31:48.459 --> 00:31:52.667
IS BREAKING THE POWER OF A
LIE THAT ALLOWS YOU AND I
00:31:52.667 --> 00:31:56.542
TO ENJOY GREATER LEVELS
OF FREEDOM IN CHRIST.
00:31:56.542 --> 00:31:57.834
THAT'S DELIVERANCE.
00:31:57.834 --> 00:31:58.959
IT COULD BE IN THE MOMENT.
00:31:58.959 --> 00:32:01.999
I REMEMBER I WAS IN
A SERVICE ONE TIME AND
00:32:01.999 --> 00:32:06.167
THE LORD SET ME FREE, IT WAS
AS SIMPLE AS I STOPPED
00:32:06.167 --> 00:32:08.999
AGREEING WITH THE THING
THAT I WAS STRUGGLING WITH
00:32:08.999 --> 00:32:12.584
AND I SAID, GOD, I
GIVE THIS TO YOU.
00:32:12.584 --> 00:32:16.042
AND LIKE THAT,
THE LORD SET ME FREE.
00:32:16.042 --> 00:32:23.250
IT WASN'T ANYTHING
DRAMATIC OR I DIDN'T --
00:32:23.250 --> 00:32:26.792
BIRDS DIDN'T FLY OUT OF MY MOUTH
OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
00:32:26.792 --> 00:32:28.250
IT WAS JUST IN
THAT MOMENT,
00:32:28.250 --> 00:32:34.834
I NO LONGER AGREED WITH
THE LIE OF THE ENEMY.
00:32:34.834 --> 00:32:38.584
AND I TURNED TO THE
TRUTH, AND AS I DID THAT,
00:32:38.584 --> 00:32:41.167
THERE WAS A
MANIFESTATION OF FREEDOM.
00:32:41.167 --> 00:32:41.959
REBECCA: WOW.
00:32:41.959 --> 00:32:42.417
DR. BRIDGES: YEAH.
00:32:42.417 --> 00:32:43.083
REBECCA:
THAT'S AMAZING.
00:32:43.083 --> 00:32:44.042
YOU ACTUALLY
BROUGHT UP SOMETHING,
00:32:44.042 --> 00:32:47.000
I THINK THIS CAN SHIFT
OVER TO THE SUBJECT,
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:48.959
SO I WANT TO TALK
ABOUT CANCEL CULTURE,
00:32:48.959 --> 00:32:50.751
BUT JUST LIKE THINGS
CAN BE GOING ON IN THE
00:32:50.751 --> 00:32:54.000
PERSONAL LIFE OF SOMEONE,
THERE'S ALSO THINGS
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:55.209
GOING ON CORPORATELY.
00:32:55.209 --> 00:32:56.250
DR. BRIDGES:
YEP, THERE YOU GO.
00:32:56.250 --> 00:32:57.999
REBECCA:
AND IT'S INTERESTING.
00:32:57.999 --> 00:33:00.417
IT WASN'T UNTIL 2020,
AROUND THAT TIME,
00:33:00.417 --> 00:33:04.876
THAT I BEGAN TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THERE IS THINGS AT
00:33:04.876 --> 00:33:07.292
PLAY AND THAT
IN THE CHURCH,
00:33:07.292 --> 00:33:09.999
WE HAVE TO BE
ABLE TO DISCERN,
00:33:09.999 --> 00:33:11.792
BECAUSE WE HAVE THE
SPIRIT OF TRUTH,
00:33:11.792 --> 00:33:12.959
BUT ARE WE
LISTENING TO HIM?
00:33:12.959 --> 00:33:16.834
WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO
DISCERN WHAT IS GOING ON
00:33:16.834 --> 00:33:17.792
IN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD.
00:33:17.792 --> 00:33:18.292
DR. BRIDGES: RIGHT.
00:33:18.292 --> 00:33:19.834
REBECCA: BECAUSE WE'RE
PRESENTED STUFF IN THE
00:33:19.834 --> 00:33:24.584
PHYSICAL AND WE'RE LIVING
IN A WORLD THAT DOESN'T
00:33:24.584 --> 00:33:25.999
WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE GOD
AT ALL OR SAY HE DOESN'T
00:33:25.999 --> 00:33:29.834
EXIST AND ONLY LOOK AT
THINGS IN THE PHYSICAL.
00:33:29.834 --> 00:33:31.959
EARLIER YOU
BROUGHT UP ABORTION.
00:33:31.959 --> 00:33:33.375
WHAT WAS INTERESTING IS,
OUR CULTURE HAS TRIED TO
00:33:33.375 --> 00:33:37.709
REDUCE ABORTION TO
SOMETHING PURELY PHYSICAL,
00:33:37.709 --> 00:33:40.125
SOMETHING PURELY POLITICAL.
00:33:40.125 --> 00:33:41.959
AND THAT'S THE FARTHEST
THING FROM THE TRUTH.
00:33:41.959 --> 00:33:45.292
IT'S VERY SPIRITUAL
AND IT'S DEMONIC.
00:33:45.292 --> 00:33:48.083
AND SO WE HAVE TO
UNDERSTAND AS BELIEVERS
00:33:48.083 --> 00:33:50.375
THAT THERE IS A DEMONIC
AGENDA GOING ON IN THE
00:33:50.375 --> 00:33:53.125
WORLD AND SO THAT
WHEN IT'S AT PLAY,
00:33:53.125 --> 00:33:56.626
WE DON'T FALL FOR IT,
WE'RE NOT DECEIVED BY IT,
00:33:56.626 --> 00:33:58.999
AND WE'RE ABLE TO SPEAK
THE TRUTH AGAINST IT,
00:33:58.999 --> 00:34:01.125
AND THAT WE'RE NOT
INTIMIDATED BY THAT.
00:34:01.125 --> 00:34:01.918
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:34:01.918 --> 00:34:04.375
REBECCA: AND THIS IS
RELATED TO CANCEL CULTURE.
00:34:04.375 --> 00:34:04.999
DR. BRIDGES: RIGHT.
00:34:04.999 --> 00:34:06.334
REBECCA: AND WHAT IS
SOMETHING THAT STARTED OFF
00:34:06.334 --> 00:34:08.542
AND WAS PRESENTED AS, IF
SOMEONE SAYS SOMETHING
00:34:08.542 --> 00:34:11.459
WRONG, THEY NEED TO BE HELD
ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS.
00:34:11.459 --> 00:34:12.999
WELL, THAT IS
SEEMINGLY GOOD.
00:34:12.999 --> 00:34:15.000
YES, WE WOULDN'T
DISAGREE WITH THAT.
00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:17.999
WHAT WE SAW WAS
PRESENTED AS ONE THING,
00:34:17.999 --> 00:34:21.292
THERE WAS A WHOLE
AGENDA BEHIND IT,
00:34:21.292 --> 00:34:25.542
AND WHAT WE NOW SEE MORE
OF ITS TRUE COLORS IS,
00:34:25.542 --> 00:34:29.167
WE'RE GOING TO SILENCE
ANYONE AND PUNISH THEM AND
00:34:29.167 --> 00:34:33.501
INTIMIDATE ANYONE WHO WILL
NOT SAY EXACTLY WHAT WE
00:34:33.501 --> 00:34:34.542
WANT THEM TO SAY.
00:34:34.542 --> 00:34:35.042
DR. BRIDGES: EXACTLY.
00:34:35.042 --> 00:34:36.584
REBECCA: OUR
VERSION OF TRUTH.
00:34:36.584 --> 00:34:37.000
DR. BRIDGES: YES.
00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:38.167
REBECCA: WHICH IS NOT
TRUTH IN THE FIRST PLACE.
00:34:38.167 --> 00:34:38.999
DR. BRIDGES:
THERE YOU GO.
00:34:38.999 --> 00:34:40.999
REBECCA: SO SPEAK TO CANCEL
CULTURE AND WHAT'S GOING ON.
00:34:40.999 --> 00:34:46.626
DR. BRIDGES: WELL, IT IS
A GREAT DECEPTION OF OUR TIME.
00:34:46.626 --> 00:34:51.167
WHEN YOU -- I AGREE
WITH ACCOUNTABILITY,
00:34:51.167 --> 00:34:52.999
I BELIEVE ACCOUNTABILITY
IS IMPORTANT.
00:34:52.999 --> 00:34:54.999
WE NEED TO BE
HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
00:34:54.999 --> 00:34:58.083
REBECCA: THAT'S NOT
HOW IT'S OPERATING.
00:34:58.083 --> 00:35:01.167
DR. BRIDGES:
BUT ACCOUNTABILITY BASED IN A
00:35:01.167 --> 00:35:05.792
LIE IS NOT
REAL ACCOUNTABILITY.
00:35:05.792 --> 00:35:07.834
I'LL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.
00:35:07.834 --> 00:35:08.999
THE #METOO MOVEMENT.
00:35:08.999 --> 00:35:11.501
I THINK THIS IS A
PERFECT EXAMPLE OF IT.
00:35:11.501 --> 00:35:17.792
EVERY PERSON WHO IS SANE
AND RATIONAL WOULD AGREE
00:35:17.792 --> 00:35:22.667
THAT IF A MAN OR A WOMAN
WHO VIOLATES ANOTHER
00:35:22.667 --> 00:35:27.209
PERSON, WHO USES THEIR
POWER IN A WAY THAT
00:35:27.209 --> 00:35:30.709
ENSLAVES ANOTHER PERSON
SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
00:35:30.709 --> 00:35:31.542
FOR THEIR ACTIONS.
00:35:31.542 --> 00:35:35.167
THAT'S HUMAN TRAFFICKING,
WE HAVE ALL KINDS OF
00:35:35.167 --> 00:35:37.959
SEXUAL ASSAULT
THINGS GOING ON.
00:35:37.959 --> 00:35:38.375
REBECCA: ABUSE.
00:35:38.375 --> 00:35:39.417
DR. BRIDGES:
AND IT'S ABUSE.
00:35:39.417 --> 00:35:43.584
AND IT'S EGREGIOUS TO
THE HEART OF GOD.
00:35:43.584 --> 00:35:50.042
HOWEVER, WHEN YOU LOOK AT
THE #METOO AS A MOVEMENT,
00:35:50.042 --> 00:35:52.000
JUST LIKE BLACK LIVES MATTER
AS A MOVEMENT,
00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:58.375
IT'S THE SAME THING, THE
WOMEN THAT FOUNDED #METOO,
00:35:58.375 --> 00:36:03.000
MOST OF THEM ARE -- ONE
IN PARTICULAR SITS ON THE
00:36:03.000 --> 00:36:06.709
BOARD OF AN ORGANIZATION
WHOSE SOLE PURPOSE IS TO
00:36:06.709 --> 00:36:12.125
GET YOUNG WOMEN TO COME
OUT AS BI AND TRANS.
00:36:12.125 --> 00:36:13.209
REBECCA: OH, MAN.
00:36:13.209 --> 00:36:13.999
DR. BRIDGES: RIGHT.
00:36:13.999 --> 00:36:16.584
BUT YOU DON'T SEE
THAT PART OF IT.
00:36:16.584 --> 00:36:21.292
SO THERE'S THE FRONT
FASCIA OF EQUALITY,
00:36:21.292 --> 00:36:25.876
EQUITY, AND JUSTICE, BUT
BEHIND THAT FRONT FASCIA
00:36:25.876 --> 00:36:30.292
IS A SPIRIT OF PERVERSION
THAT WANTS TO PUT ENMITY
00:36:30.292 --> 00:36:32.334
BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN.
00:36:32.334 --> 00:36:35.209
BECAUSE WHEN GOD MADE US,
GENESIS 1:26,
00:36:35.209 --> 00:36:38.042
HE MADE US TO BE
CALLED DOMINIONAIRES.
00:36:38.042 --> 00:36:39.626
I CALL IT BEING
A DOMINIONAIRE.
00:36:39.626 --> 00:36:44.999
WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THOSE WHO
OPERATED IN DOMINION TOGETHER.
00:36:44.999 --> 00:36:49.250
BUT IF WE HAVE ANTAGONISM
AND ENMITY BETWEEN US,
00:36:49.250 --> 00:36:51.834
WE CAN'T FULFILL GOD'S
ORIGINAL PURPOSE --
00:36:51.834 --> 00:36:52.375
REBECCA: IT'S TRUE.
00:36:52.375 --> 00:36:53.417
DR. BRIDGES: -- THAT HE
ESTABLISHED IN THE
00:36:53.417 --> 00:36:53.999
GARDEN OF EDEN.
00:36:53.999 --> 00:36:54.751
MEN OUGHT TO
RESPECT WOMEN,
00:36:54.751 --> 00:36:56.125
WOMEN OUGHT TO
RESPECT MEN.
00:36:56.125 --> 00:36:59.125
WE ARE TO SUBMIT ONE TO
ANOTHER AS GOD DESIGNED.
00:36:59.125 --> 00:37:02.083
THAT COULD ONLY COME ABOUT
THROUGH DOING IT GOD'S WAY.
00:37:02.083 --> 00:37:06.584
SATAN DOES NOT HAVE A SOLUTION
TO THE PROBLEMS OF THE CULTURE.
00:37:06.584 --> 00:37:10.999
SO WHEN WE CONCEDE TO THE ENEMY,
WE'RE UNDER DECEPTION.
00:37:10.999 --> 00:37:15.000
SO THAT'S THE
LONG-WINDED WAY OF SAYING THE
00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:19.167
CANCEL CULTURE IS VERY DEMONIC
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T PROVIDE
00:37:19.167 --> 00:37:21.250
REDEMPTION, IT
DOESN'T PROVIDE TRUE
00:37:21.250 --> 00:37:24.501
ACCOUNTABILITY, AND IT
DOESN'T PROVIDE CHANGE.
00:37:24.501 --> 00:37:27.417
AND SO BECAUSE OF THAT,
IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE
00:37:27.417 --> 00:37:29.999
SHOULD EMBRACE
AS BELIEVERS.
00:37:29.999 --> 00:37:32.834
IF YOU'VE MADE A MISTAKE
AND YOU'VE REPENTED OF
00:37:32.834 --> 00:37:35.709
WHAT YOU'VE DONE AND YOU
HAVE CLEARED YOUR BOOKS
00:37:35.709 --> 00:37:38.999
WITH GOD, YOU OUGHT
TO GET ANOTHER CHANCE,
00:37:38.999 --> 00:37:40.042
JUST LIKE ALL OF US.
00:37:40.042 --> 00:37:42.083
IF GOD WAS A GOD
OF CANCEL CULTURE,
00:37:42.083 --> 00:37:44.417
NONE OF US WOULD BE
SITTING HERE TODAY BECAUSE
00:37:44.417 --> 00:37:45.959
WE ALL WOULD HAVE
BEEN CANCELED.
00:37:45.959 --> 00:37:46.417
REBECCA: YEAH.
00:37:46.417 --> 00:37:48.459
DR. BRIDGES: BUT THANK
GOD FOR JESUS CHRIST WHO
00:37:48.459 --> 00:37:50.999
DIED ON THE CROSS TO
GIVE US ANOTHER CHANCE.
00:37:50.999 --> 00:37:51.999
REBECCA: WELL, THIS
CONVERSATION WITH
00:37:51.999 --> 00:37:54.709
DR. KYNAN BRIDGES HAS BEEN
SO GOOD, THERE'S MORE.
00:37:54.709 --> 00:37:58.000
SO MAKE SURE TO STAY TUNED FOR
PART TWO OF OUR CONVERSATION.
