00:00:01.260 --> 00:00:03.960
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:03.960 --> 00:00:07.980
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.980 --> 00:00:11.250
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.250 --> 00:00:14.820
and your mind where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.820 --> 00:00:16.800
uncertain times
6
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:20.070
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.070 --> 00:00:21.510
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.510 --> 00:00:26.100
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:26.940 --> 00:00:28.860
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.130
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.470 --> 00:00:36.030
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.940 --> 00:00:40.620
Welcome to today's program.
13
00:00:40.620 --> 00:00:41.940
My name is Rick Renner
14
00:00:41.940 --> 00:00:44.370
and today I'm gonna continue talking
15
00:00:44.370 --> 00:00:46.980
to you about the actions
16
00:00:46.980 --> 00:00:49.290
and the personality of the Holy Spirit.
17
00:00:49.290 --> 00:00:50.730
It's a brand new series which I'm
18
00:00:50.730 --> 00:00:52.380
teaching here on the program.
19
00:00:52.380 --> 00:00:53.460
It is five parts,
20
00:00:53.460 --> 00:00:55.560
and I really want to
encourage you to order this
21
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:59.010
because I want you to
really enter into a dynamic
22
00:00:59.010 --> 00:01:01.770
relationship with the spirit of God.
23
00:01:01.770 --> 00:01:03.420
It is waiting for you.
24
00:01:03.420 --> 00:01:06.480
You just need to know how to interface with the Holy Spirit.
25
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:08.550
And that's what this series is about.
26
00:01:08.550 --> 00:01:11.730
And it comes with a study guide which has all the points,
27
00:01:11.730 --> 00:01:14.580
all the principles in the
series is in the study guide
28
00:01:14.580 --> 00:01:17.040
so you can read the
material while you're seeing
29
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:19.110
and hearing the series.
30
00:01:19.110 --> 00:01:22.290
And we're also offering you this week my book,
31
00:01:22.290 --> 00:01:26.010
which is called, My Victory Filled Day.
32
00:01:26.010 --> 00:01:27.600
Doesn't that sound good?
33
00:01:27.600 --> 00:01:30.120
God wants us to have victory,
34
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:32.550
doesn't mean we're not
gonna have problems in life,
35
00:01:32.550 --> 00:01:34.230
but Jesus said, be a good cheer,
36
00:01:34.230 --> 00:01:36.540
I have overcome the world.
37
00:01:36.540 --> 00:01:37.950
And this book is designed
38
00:01:37.950 --> 00:01:42.240
to help walk you into an overcoming life:
39
00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:44.640
My Victory Filled Day.
40
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.370
It is a Sparkling Gems from the Greek Guided
41
00:01:47.370 --> 00:01:48.510
Devotional Journey.
42
00:01:48.510 --> 00:01:50.940
So please go online to order these things
43
00:01:50.940 --> 00:01:52.380
and we'll get them right to you.
44
00:01:52.380 --> 00:01:54.660
And when you reach out to us, remember
45
00:01:54.660 --> 00:01:56.040
that we're waiting to pray for you.
46
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:59.730
Just today I received the
most wonderful report from our
47
00:01:59.730 --> 00:02:02.700
partner care ministry about all the people
48
00:02:02.700 --> 00:02:05.670
that are reaching out to us for prayer: calls
49
00:02:05.670 --> 00:02:09.120
and emails are coming
from around the world
50
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:11.430
and people are not just
calling with prayer requests,
51
00:02:11.430 --> 00:02:13.950
they're also sending testimonies
52
00:02:13.950 --> 00:02:15.750
after we have prayed with them.
53
00:02:15.750 --> 00:02:18.420
And we believe God has a testimony
54
00:02:18.420 --> 00:02:20.760
with your name on it waiting for you.
55
00:02:20.760 --> 00:02:23.460
And we would like to
pray for that testimony
56
00:02:23.460 --> 00:02:26.190
to be activated in your life.
57
00:02:26.190 --> 00:02:29.280
So call the number on the
screen or send us an email
58
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:30.780
and we will begin to pray for you.
59
00:02:30.780 --> 00:02:33.960
But before I get into today's
teaching, I want to share
60
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.480
with you three quick testimonies.
61
00:02:36.480 --> 00:02:39.780
One person said, I trust that
you're blessed and doing well.
62
00:02:39.780 --> 00:02:41.370
I've got some very good news.
63
00:02:41.370 --> 00:02:45.120
Last October and one time
earlier, I requested prayer
64
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.990
for terrible neuropathy from
my knees down to my feet.
65
00:02:48.990 --> 00:02:50.400
As far as I can tell,
66
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:53.790
I have been healed from the
terrible pain of neuropathy.
67
00:02:53.790 --> 00:02:55.710
I praise the name of Jesus.
68
00:02:55.710 --> 00:02:57.720
I desperately desired this to happen,
69
00:02:57.720 --> 00:03:01.690
but honestly I had trouble believing that I would be healed.
70
00:03:01.690 --> 00:03:06.690
But I thank you so much for
agreeing in prayer for me.
71
00:03:06.820 --> 00:03:08.920
Well, we believe in praying for people
72
00:03:08.920 --> 00:03:10.150
and if you have a need in your life,
73
00:03:10.150 --> 00:03:11.740
we wanna pray with you as well.
74
00:03:11.740 --> 00:03:14.500
But listen to this 2nd brief testimony.
75
00:03:14.500 --> 00:03:17.680
One person wrote to say
how thankful he is to Rick
76
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:19.180
for delivering God's word
77
00:03:19.180 --> 00:03:20.590
and how he invites people
78
00:03:20.590 --> 00:03:24.220
to call the prayer line whether they have money or not.
79
00:03:24.220 --> 00:03:27.880
This demonstrates how much they care about people.
80
00:03:27.880 --> 00:03:30.280
Well that's right. Prayer
is not about money,
81
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:31.750
it's about ministering to you
82
00:03:31.750 --> 00:03:33.430
and we just want to minister to you.
83
00:03:33.430 --> 00:03:36.160
So please give us that
opportunity by calling us
84
00:03:36.160 --> 00:03:37.300
with your prayer request.
85
00:03:37.300 --> 00:03:39.820
But here is one last testimony: One man wrote
86
00:03:39.820 --> 00:03:43.300
to say - Your series "Weapons" has had a profound
87
00:03:43.300 --> 00:03:44.680
effect on my life.
88
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:48.670
For approximately 65 years,
I have fought a stronghold
89
00:03:48.670 --> 00:03:50.050
and prayed for scriptures
90
00:03:50.050 --> 00:03:52.750
to overcome this continuous battle.
91
00:03:52.750 --> 00:03:55.450
I know that everything can
be overcome with scripture,
92
00:03:55.450 --> 00:03:57.970
but I never found the
scriptures to set me free.
93
00:03:57.970 --> 00:04:01.180
But when you taught five words of warfare,
94
00:04:01.180 --> 00:04:02.770
it was a word for me.
95
00:04:02.770 --> 00:04:05.590
And the stronghold in my mind was broken.
96
00:04:05.590 --> 00:04:08.980
And now I have a freedom I have never had.
97
00:04:08.980 --> 00:04:11.350
This would've been a
sufficient change in my life.
98
00:04:11.350 --> 00:04:13.180
But when you taught on the wind
99
00:04:13.180 --> 00:04:15.880
and the waves, it was another word for me.
100
00:04:15.880 --> 00:04:18.130
The entire series was powerful
101
00:04:18.130 --> 00:04:20.740
and it profoundly impacted my life.
102
00:04:20.740 --> 00:04:25.030
And now I have a freedom I
thought was unobtainable.
103
00:04:25.030 --> 00:04:27.610
That is an amazing testimony,
104
00:04:27.610 --> 00:04:30.670
and again, I believe there's
a testimony waiting for you.
105
00:04:30.670 --> 00:04:34.030
So reach out to us and we
want to pray for you as well.
106
00:04:34.030 --> 00:04:35.560
But I want you to reach for your Bible
107
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:38.740
because we always use the
Bible in this program.
108
00:04:38.740 --> 00:04:41.500
And today we're gonna continue
this series about the Holy
109
00:04:41.500 --> 00:04:43.000
Spirit and we're going to see
110
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.910
what the Holy Spirit does for us.
111
00:04:45.910 --> 00:04:49.990
So open your Bible if you would to John 14,
112
00:04:49.990 --> 00:04:52.420
and we're going to begin in verse 16, which is
113
00:04:52.420 --> 00:04:54.820
where we left off in the last program.
114
00:04:54.820 --> 00:04:57.250
But verse 16 is so foundational, I want
115
00:04:57.250 --> 00:05:00.190
to review just a few things
from it one more time.
116
00:05:00.190 --> 00:05:03.850
So let's go there. And in John 14:16, Jesus said
117
00:05:03.850 --> 00:05:07.360
to the disciples, And I will pray the Father
118
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:10.840
and he shall give you another
comforter that he may abide
119
00:05:10.840 --> 00:05:11.890
with you forever.
120
00:05:11.890 --> 00:05:14.470
And two words in this
verse are very important.
121
00:05:14.470 --> 00:05:16.720
First of all, we come to the word, another,
122
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:18.700
which is the Greek word, allelos.
123
00:05:18.700 --> 00:05:19.870
Now, I told you yesterday
124
00:05:19.870 --> 00:05:22.780
that there were 2 possible words that could have been used.
125
00:05:22.780 --> 00:05:25.030
The first is the word heteros.
126
00:05:25.030 --> 00:05:27.220
And the word heteros is
where you get the term
127
00:05:27.220 --> 00:05:28.930
for a heterosexual.
128
00:05:28.930 --> 00:05:30.910
The word heteros means another
129
00:05:30.910 --> 00:05:33.280
of a completely different kind.
130
00:05:33.280 --> 00:05:36.100
If Jesus had used the
word heteros when he said,
131
00:05:36.100 --> 00:05:38.470
I'll pray the Father and he'll
give you a heteros comforter,
132
00:05:38.470 --> 00:05:39.910
another comforter,
133
00:05:39.910 --> 00:05:41.890
it would've meant the father's gonna
134
00:05:41.890 --> 00:05:42.970
give you another comforter.
135
00:05:42.970 --> 00:05:46.360
But heteros, when he shows up,
he'll be completely different.
136
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:47.830
He'll be nothing like me.
137
00:05:47.830 --> 00:05:50.920
It's going to be a brand
new experience for you.
138
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:52.360
You will not be accustomed to it.
139
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:55.270
He's going to be heteros - completely different.
140
00:05:55.270 --> 00:05:57.170
That would've been very alarming.
141
00:05:57.170 --> 00:06:00.170
But instead, Jesus used the word, allelos.
142
00:06:00.170 --> 00:06:04.700
And the word allelos means: one of the very same kind,
143
00:06:04.700 --> 00:06:07.100
identical in every way.
144
00:06:07.100 --> 00:06:08.780
And by saying, I'll pray the Father
145
00:06:08.780 --> 00:06:11.240
and he'll give you allelos, another comforter,
146
00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:12.650
it was the equivalent of saying,
147
00:06:12.650 --> 00:06:15.080
when the Holy Spirit comes, it's going
148
00:06:15.080 --> 00:06:16.400
to be like I'm still with you
149
00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:20.480
because allelos - he and I, we
are identical in every way.
150
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.090
What I say, it's what he's going to say.
151
00:06:23.090 --> 00:06:25.610
What I would do is
exactly what he will do.
152
00:06:25.610 --> 00:06:27.800
How I hear is how he hears.
153
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:32.330
He and I allelos, we are identical in every way,
154
00:06:32.330 --> 00:06:36.590
which means when we have the
Holy Spirit working alongside
155
00:06:36.590 --> 00:06:38.390
of us, it's like Jesus is with us.
156
00:06:38.390 --> 00:06:41.000
He brings us the reality of Jesus.
157
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:44.420
But notice in verse 16,
Jesus said, I pray the Father
158
00:06:44.420 --> 00:06:48.680
and he'll give you allelos, another and identical comforter.
159
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.740
And the word comforter in
Greek, as we saw yesterday,
160
00:06:51.740 --> 00:06:54.200
is the Greek word, parakletos.
161
00:06:54.200 --> 00:06:55.520
Now the word, parakletos,
162
00:06:55.520 --> 00:06:59.690
by itself is a legal term
which describes a lawyer, one
163
00:06:59.690 --> 00:07:02.810
who fights for you, one
who argues on your behalf.
164
00:07:02.810 --> 00:07:05.360
But it importantly comes from the word
165
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:08.510
parakaleo.
166
00:07:09.590 --> 00:07:10.610
And this is important
167
00:07:10.610 --> 00:07:14.300
because this is the
foundation of this word.
168
00:07:14.300 --> 00:07:17.900
The word para describes
a parallel relationship.
169
00:07:17.900 --> 00:07:20.480
And the first thing this tells us is
170
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:23.540
that when the Holy Spirit is
with us, not only is he in us
171
00:07:23.540 --> 00:07:27.170
as a resident but para, he's alongside of us like a partner.
172
00:07:27.170 --> 00:07:31.250
He walks with us, he's
with us everywhere we go,
173
00:07:31.250 --> 00:07:33.590
and this word para describes a very close
174
00:07:33.590 --> 00:07:35.270
intimate relationship.
175
00:07:35.270 --> 00:07:37.220
For example, I could use this word para
176
00:07:37.220 --> 00:07:39.860
to describe my relationship
with my wife Denise.
177
00:07:39.860 --> 00:07:42.200
She's para me. She's alongside of me.
178
00:07:42.200 --> 00:07:43.370
She's everywhere I go,
179
00:07:43.370 --> 00:07:46.430
she's always - para - she's alongside of me.
180
00:07:46.430 --> 00:07:49.190
And now we find the ministry
of the Holy Spirit is
181
00:07:49.190 --> 00:07:51.260
to be - para - alongside of us.
182
00:07:51.260 --> 00:07:54.650
And the 2nd part of the word kaleo means to call.
183
00:07:54.650 --> 00:07:56.600
And it tells us several things.
184
00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:00.020
First of all, just like
I have a calling from God
185
00:08:00.020 --> 00:08:03.620
to preach the Bible, the Holy Spirit has kaleo;
186
00:08:03.620 --> 00:08:07.010
he has a call. You say, What is the call of the Holy Spirit?
187
00:08:07.010 --> 00:08:11.120
His call is, para. He is called to be alongside of me.
188
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.720
He is called by God to
be alongside of you.
189
00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:17.720
And because he is called, it means he is going to answer for
190
00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:19.520
how he fulfills the call.
191
00:08:19.520 --> 00:08:21.830
And he knows his job, his task,
192
00:08:21.830 --> 00:08:24.620
his number one assignment is, para,
193
00:08:24.620 --> 00:08:27.260
to be alongside of us.
194
00:08:27.260 --> 00:08:29.960
And when you compound
these two words together,
195
00:08:29.960 --> 00:08:32.600
it can be translated to encourage,
196
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:35.030
to beseech, to admonish.
197
00:08:35.030 --> 00:08:38.390
And it was used in a military context, parakaleo,
198
00:08:39.410 --> 00:08:41.240
to describe a commanding officer
199
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:43.340
who would stand in front of his troops.
200
00:08:43.340 --> 00:08:45.200
And when they were
about to go into battle,
201
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:48.290
he would give them a charge; he would stir them,
202
00:08:48.290 --> 00:08:50.900
he would tell 'em about the
battle in front of them.
203
00:08:50.900 --> 00:08:53.390
He would describe the
atrocities of warfare
204
00:08:53.390 --> 00:08:56.520
and he would also tell them
about the rewards of victory.
205
00:08:56.520 --> 00:08:59.460
He would really stir the troops.
206
00:08:59.460 --> 00:09:03.600
And because that word also
is in parakaleo, it tells us
207
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:06.180
that when the Holy Spirit is
actively working in our life,
208
00:09:06.180 --> 00:09:07.500
he is speaking to us.
209
00:09:07.500 --> 00:09:10.500
He's calling out to us,
he is admonishing us.
210
00:09:10.500 --> 00:09:12.480
He's telling us to hold our head high
211
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:15.180
and throw our shoulders back into bravely
212
00:09:15.180 --> 00:09:16.680
march into battle.
213
00:09:16.680 --> 00:09:18.390
He is with us.
214
00:09:18.390 --> 00:09:21.210
And because this word becomes the word parakletos,
215
00:09:21.210 --> 00:09:25.440
it means he is legally with
us and he is on our team.
216
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:28.800
Now my friends, that is
really, really powerful.
217
00:09:28.800 --> 00:09:30.780
But I also told you yesterday
218
00:09:30.780 --> 00:09:35.220
that Jesus uses a
personal pronoun 18 times
219
00:09:35.220 --> 00:09:38.730
to describe the Holy Spirit in John 14:15
220
00:09:38.730 --> 00:09:42.210
& 16, he never calls the Holy Spirit, the anointing.
221
00:09:42.210 --> 00:09:44.430
He never calls the Holy Spirit, an it
222
00:09:44.430 --> 00:09:46.410
or a feeling or emotion.
223
00:09:46.410 --> 00:09:50.670
But he refers to the Holy Spirit 18 times by saying He
224
00:09:50.670 --> 00:09:54.750
Himself, he himself, which means we are
225
00:09:54.750 --> 00:09:56.370
to relate to the Holy Spirit
226
00:09:56.370 --> 00:09:59.490
like you would relate to a person; just like you relate
227
00:09:59.490 --> 00:10:04.470
to God the Father as a person,
Jesus the Son as a person.
228
00:10:04.470 --> 00:10:06.390
The Holy Spirit's not a mysterious blob
229
00:10:06.390 --> 00:10:08.220
that just floats in our life,
230
00:10:08.220 --> 00:10:10.590
he has personality.
231
00:10:10.590 --> 00:10:12.420
That's why this series
is called the Actions
232
00:10:12.420 --> 00:10:14.880
and Personality of the Holy Spirit.
233
00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:17.640
If you relate to the Holy
Spirit just as a goosebump
234
00:10:17.640 --> 00:10:20.580
or a feeling or an
emotion, you're in trouble
235
00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:24.810
because you can't build a
relationship with a feeling.
236
00:10:24.810 --> 00:10:26.400
Feelings come and feelings go.
237
00:10:26.400 --> 00:10:30.000
I love my wife and sometimes
she really gives me goosebumps.
238
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:33.300
She gives me feelings, she
gives me a chill down my spine.
239
00:10:33.300 --> 00:10:34.620
But whether I have a feeling
240
00:10:34.620 --> 00:10:38.580
or not, para, we are still alongside of each other.
241
00:10:38.580 --> 00:10:41.040
We're in relationship with each other regardless
242
00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:42.240
of what I feel.
243
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:44.910
And I'm so thankful that my relationship
244
00:10:44.910 --> 00:10:47.640
with Denise is not based on my feelings.
245
00:10:47.640 --> 00:10:51.810
We are in relationship and I relate to her not as a feeling,
246
00:10:51.810 --> 00:10:54.360
but as the most important
person in my life.
247
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:57.150
And that is how we are supposed to relate
248
00:10:57.150 --> 00:10:58.470
to the Holy Spirit.
249
00:10:58.470 --> 00:11:02.820
But as we continue,
Jesus begins to describe
250
00:11:02.820 --> 00:11:05.310
what the Holy Spirit will do for us.
251
00:11:05.310 --> 00:11:09.240
So let's go to verse 26 of John 14.
252
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:10.980
And in verse 26, Jesus says,
253
00:11:10.980 --> 00:11:12.390
but the comforter:
254
00:11:12.390 --> 00:11:15.300
the word comforter, again, is this Greek word, parakletos.
255
00:11:15.300 --> 00:11:17.850
It describes one called alongside of us,
256
00:11:17.850 --> 00:11:20.280
but the comforter,
which is the Holy Ghost.
257
00:11:20.280 --> 00:11:23.310
Now he makes it clear he's talking about the Holy Spirit
258
00:11:23.310 --> 00:11:25.170
whom the Father will send in my name.
259
00:11:25.170 --> 00:11:28.350
He shall teach you all things
260
00:11:28.350 --> 00:11:30.360
and shall bring all things
261
00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:33.960
to your remembrance whatsoever
I have said unto you.
262
00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:38.190
So now we find in verse 26, 2 features of
263
00:11:38.190 --> 00:11:40.170
what the Holy Spirit will do for us.
264
00:11:40.170 --> 00:11:43.140
And first of all, Jesus said he will teach you the word.
265
00:11:43.140 --> 00:11:47.190
Teach is from the Greek word, didosko.
266
00:11:47.190 --> 00:11:48.340
It means I teach,
267
00:11:48.340 --> 00:11:52.856
but it is connected to the Greek word, didoskolos.
268
00:11:52.856 --> 00:11:57.070
And the word didos is the word
which describes a fabulous,
269
00:11:57.070 --> 00:11:58.180
fabulous teacher.
270
00:11:58.180 --> 00:12:03.180
And it is the Greek equivalent
of the word Rabbi - Rabbi.
271
00:12:03.460 --> 00:12:06.460
But the only way you can have teaching
272
00:12:06.460 --> 00:12:10.330
is if you are submitted to a didoskolos,
273
00:12:10.330 --> 00:12:13.330
or if you're submitted to a Rabbi.
274
00:12:13.330 --> 00:12:14.950
Now when we think about Jesus
275
00:12:14.950 --> 00:12:18.580
and his disciples, they
called him teacher in Greek.
276
00:12:18.580 --> 00:12:21.220
That is the word Salas,
they called him rabbi.
277
00:12:21.220 --> 00:12:22.840
But did you know that
in the ancient world,
278
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:26.470
particularly in Israel, if you
were a part of a small group
279
00:12:26.470 --> 00:12:28.360
that was submitted to a rabbi
280
00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:30.293
or a didoskolas,
281
00:12:30.293 --> 00:12:32.809
you were absolutely submitted to their authority
282
00:12:32.809 --> 00:12:34.510
and it was required -
283
00:12:34.510 --> 00:12:37.300
this was part of the requirement to be a part of the team -
284
00:12:37.300 --> 00:12:38.830
it was required
285
00:12:38.830 --> 00:12:43.240
that you absolutely obey whatever the didoskolas
286
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:44.950
or rabbi had to say to you.
287
00:12:44.950 --> 00:12:47.320
And if you will really listen to the didoskolas
288
00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:51.550
or the Rabbi, then didoskolas, he can really teach you
289
00:12:51.550 --> 00:12:54.940
and take you places you can
never get to by yourself.
290
00:12:54.940 --> 00:12:56.980
So inferred in this is
291
00:12:56.980 --> 00:12:59.380
that the Holy Spirit
wants to be your rabbi.
292
00:12:59.380 --> 00:13:01.270
He wants to be your, didoskolas.
293
00:13:01.270 --> 00:13:03.280
He wants to be your fabulous teacher.
294
00:13:03.280 --> 00:13:06.010
But for you to get the benefit of his teaching,
295
00:13:06.010 --> 00:13:09.400
you've gotta really be submitted to his authority.
296
00:13:09.400 --> 00:13:12.190
And if you will listen
to him, submit to him
297
00:13:12.190 --> 00:13:14.350
and do explicitly what he tells you to do,
298
00:13:14.350 --> 00:13:18.190
didosko, he will really take you places
299
00:13:18.190 --> 00:13:20.290
and he will really teach you.
300
00:13:20.290 --> 00:13:22.300
But Jesus also said He will bring
301
00:13:22.300 --> 00:13:26.890
to your remembrance everything
that I have said unto you.
302
00:13:26.890 --> 00:13:29.410
Well you know, as you read the
four gospels, you may wonder,
303
00:13:29.410 --> 00:13:32.440
how did the disciples
remember all these things
304
00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:33.940
that Jesus said?
305
00:13:33.940 --> 00:13:36.790
And here we find this
supernatural reminding
306
00:13:36.790 --> 00:13:38.770
ministry of the Holy Spirit.
307
00:13:38.770 --> 00:13:41.380
And the word, remembrance, in Greek is the word,
308
00:13:41.380 --> 00:13:44.985
hupomimnesko.
309
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:49.690
The word, mnesko, is from the Greek word manea,
310
00:13:49.690 --> 00:13:54.690
which is the word for a
statue, a monument or a grave.
311
00:13:54.970 --> 00:13:58.090
It really describes something
that should be remembered
312
00:13:58.090 --> 00:14:00.460
but possibly could also be buried.
313
00:14:00.460 --> 00:14:02.830
But when you compound it with this word, hupo,
314
00:14:02.830 --> 00:14:05.650
you put it all together,
it means to recollect
315
00:14:05.650 --> 00:14:10.270
or it means to brush off
the dirt from the ground
316
00:14:10.270 --> 00:14:12.310
and pull that memory out of the grave
317
00:14:12.310 --> 00:14:15.940
and put it on a pedestal so
that you will never forget it.
318
00:14:15.940 --> 00:14:20.050
It could be translated to
recollect - to recollect,
319
00:14:20.050 --> 00:14:22.060
to put in remembrance.
320
00:14:22.060 --> 00:14:24.340
And here we find that one
of the wonderful ministries
321
00:14:24.340 --> 00:14:27.550
of the Holy Spirit is to remind us.
322
00:14:27.550 --> 00:14:29.590
He helps us dig deep.
323
00:14:29.590 --> 00:14:31.330
He helps us to recollect
324
00:14:31.330 --> 00:14:35.650
or to recall what we could
not remember by ourself.
325
00:14:35.650 --> 00:14:39.400
And my friends don't just
use this in application
326
00:14:39.400 --> 00:14:41.890
to the apostles who were
writing the four gospels.
327
00:14:41.890 --> 00:14:44.860
I know in my own life that
there are moments when I need
328
00:14:44.860 --> 00:14:47.080
to remember something that Jesus said
329
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:50.770
and the Holy Spirit hupomimnesko, he puts me in remembrance.
330
00:14:50.770 --> 00:14:54.950
He helps me dig deep and he brings it to my mind whatsoever
331
00:14:54.950 --> 00:14:57.830
Jesus said to me. This means you don't have
332
00:14:57.830 --> 00:15:00.890
to have the power of memorizing verses. Now you need
333
00:15:00.890 --> 00:15:03.260
to memorize the Bible to
the best of your ability.
334
00:15:03.260 --> 00:15:05.150
But if there's a verse
that you cannot remember
335
00:15:05.150 --> 00:15:08.533
and you need it the Holy Spirit, hupomimnesko,
336
00:15:08.533 --> 00:15:09.899
he'll pull it up,
337
00:15:09.899 --> 00:15:12.290
he'll put it on a pedestal in your mind so
338
00:15:12.290 --> 00:15:15.140
that once again you see
it and you remember it.
339
00:15:15.140 --> 00:15:16.760
That is one of his ministries.
340
00:15:16.760 --> 00:15:20.000
So in John 14:26, we find
that if we will submit
341
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:22.490
to his authority as a didoskolas or a rabbi
342
00:15:22.490 --> 00:15:24.830
or as a teacher, he will really teach us.
343
00:15:24.830 --> 00:15:26.900
But it requires our submission.
344
00:15:26.900 --> 00:15:30.050
We also find that he will
remind us of everything
345
00:15:30.050 --> 00:15:31.580
that Jesus said.
346
00:15:31.580 --> 00:15:33.590
So if there's something you
can't remember, just say,
347
00:15:33.590 --> 00:15:35.750
Holy Spirit, please remind me of that verse
348
00:15:35.750 --> 00:15:37.730
and he will help you recollect it.
349
00:15:37.730 --> 00:15:41.000
But then let's go to chapter 15.
350
00:15:41.000 --> 00:15:45.950
And when we get to chapter 15:26, Jesus also says,
351
00:15:45.950 --> 00:15:48.582
but when the comforter is come - there's
352
00:15:48.582 --> 00:15:50.131
that word comforter again -
353
00:15:50.131 --> 00:15:51.939
whom I will send unto you from the
354
00:15:51.939 --> 00:15:54.260
Father, even the spirit of truth,
355
00:15:54.260 --> 00:15:58.520
which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify
356
00:15:58.520 --> 00:15:59.870
of me.
357
00:15:59.870 --> 00:16:02.690
Now we come to the word testify.
358
00:16:02.690 --> 00:16:06.260
And the word testify in Greek is the word, martureo.
359
00:16:06.260 --> 00:16:09.890
And the word, martureo, describes one
360
00:16:09.890 --> 00:16:12.740
who gives a firsthand testimony
361
00:16:12.740 --> 00:16:17.720
in a court of law: secondhand information is not permitted.
362
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:20.390
You have to give a firsthand testimony.
363
00:16:20.390 --> 00:16:22.220
And here we find that if we will surrender
364
00:16:22.220 --> 00:16:24.080
to the Holy Spirit, two things take place.
365
00:16:24.080 --> 00:16:27.320
No.1: He will give us our firsthand
366
00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:28.940
testimony about Jesus.
367
00:16:28.940 --> 00:16:31.610
He'll tell us everything about Jesus.
368
00:16:31.610 --> 00:16:34.430
It's amazing that when I was
filled with the Holy Spirit,
369
00:16:34.430 --> 00:16:36.950
it felt like Jesus just came all over me.
370
00:16:36.950 --> 00:16:38.720
In fact, I was filled
with the Holy Spirit.
371
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:41.630
But the Holy Spirit loves to, martureo, he loves
372
00:16:41.630 --> 00:16:43.370
to testify about Jesus.
373
00:16:43.370 --> 00:16:45.770
And when I was filled with
the Holy Spirit, I got
374
00:16:45.770 --> 00:16:47.570
to know Jesus better than ever before
375
00:16:47.570 --> 00:16:49.310
because the Holy Spirit is kind
376
00:16:49.310 --> 00:16:51.380
of a blabber mouth when it comes to Jesus.
377
00:16:51.380 --> 00:16:53.270
He talks and talks and talks and talks
378
00:16:53.270 --> 00:16:54.470
and talks about Jesus,
379
00:16:54.470 --> 00:16:58.040
but he also works through us
380
00:16:58.040 --> 00:17:02.450
to - martureo - testify to others about Jesus.
381
00:17:02.450 --> 00:17:05.330
And in fact, when you come to Acts 1:8,
382
00:17:05.330 --> 00:17:07.490
Jesus said, but after the power
383
00:17:07.490 --> 00:17:08.870
of the Holy Spirit has come upon you,
384
00:17:08.870 --> 00:17:12.470
you shall be witnesses
unto me, both in Jerusalem,
385
00:17:12.470 --> 00:17:14.420
Judaism area and to the ends of the earth.
386
00:17:14.420 --> 00:17:16.430
That's the same word, martureo.
387
00:17:16.430 --> 00:17:21.320
It is the Holy Spirit that
gives us the power to testify
388
00:17:21.320 --> 00:17:22.850
and to witness.
389
00:17:22.850 --> 00:17:26.900
But then in John 16, then we come to verse 7
390
00:17:26.900 --> 00:17:30.260
where Jesus says, Nevertheless, I tell you the truth,
391
00:17:30.260 --> 00:17:34.400
it is expedient for you that I
go away for if I go not away,
392
00:17:34.400 --> 00:17:36.680
the Comforter will not come unto you,
393
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:38.810
but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
394
00:17:38.810 --> 00:17:40.070
Then he says in verse 8:
395
00:17:40.070 --> 00:17:44.660
And when he is come, he will reprove the world
396
00:17:44.660 --> 00:17:47.660
of sin and of righteousness and of judgment.
397
00:17:47.660 --> 00:17:50.460
That word, reprove, is very important.
398
00:17:50.460 --> 00:17:53.070
It is the Greek word, elegcho.
399
00:17:54.900 --> 00:17:57.750
This word is the very word you would use
400
00:17:57.750 --> 00:18:01.560
to describe a prosecutor in a court of law,
401
00:18:01.560 --> 00:18:05.130
who brings forth evidence that is irrefutable.
402
00:18:05.130 --> 00:18:06.900
Even though the person charged
403
00:18:06.900 --> 00:18:10.560
with crime may deny his crime,
by the time the attorney
404
00:18:10.560 --> 00:18:13.770
or the prosecuting attorney
is finished bringing forth the
405
00:18:13.770 --> 00:18:18.090
evidence that is irrefutable,
that criminal is convicted
406
00:18:18.090 --> 00:18:19.770
and that is the word that is used here.
407
00:18:19.770 --> 00:18:22.200
And my friends, it is just a fact
408
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:25.200
that a sinner cannot
understand his sin by himself.
409
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:28.440
It takes the supernatural
ministry of the Holy Spirit
410
00:18:28.440 --> 00:18:32.640
to confront a person about
their spiritual condition.
411
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:34.710
And if you've been trying to witness
412
00:18:34.710 --> 00:18:37.590
and it just seems people can't
hear, then you need to pray
413
00:18:37.590 --> 00:18:40.140
for the Holy Spirit to
do his convicting work.
414
00:18:40.140 --> 00:18:41.880
He is a lawyer
415
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:44.850
and he will bring that person
to a point of confrontation
416
00:18:44.850 --> 00:18:46.260
concerning their sin.
417
00:18:46.260 --> 00:18:49.440
But Jesus also said
concerning righteousness.
418
00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:51.120
Now, when I was growing up, I didn't know
419
00:18:51.120 --> 00:18:53.670
that I was the righteousness
of God in Christ.
420
00:18:53.670 --> 00:18:56.370
And in fact, the first time I
heard somebody say they were
421
00:18:56.370 --> 00:18:58.110
righteous, I was very offended.
422
00:18:58.110 --> 00:19:00.720
That just seems so audacious to me.
423
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:04.620
I thought I was just a sinner
saved by grace, which I was,
424
00:19:04.620 --> 00:19:06.900
but now I'm the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
425
00:19:06.900 --> 00:19:10.800
But I did not understand that
God had made me righteous
426
00:19:10.800 --> 00:19:12.690
until the Holy Spirit had did his work
427
00:19:12.690 --> 00:19:14.580
of convincing or convicting.
428
00:19:14.580 --> 00:19:18.180
And just like the Holy Spirit
convince convinces a sinner
429
00:19:18.180 --> 00:19:22.020
of his sin, it is only the
Holy Spirit which can present
430
00:19:22.020 --> 00:19:25.440
to you irrefutable evidence that you're no longer a sinner,
431
00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:29.250
but now you've been made the righteousness of God in Christ.
432
00:19:29.250 --> 00:19:32.340
And I'm so thankful that the Holy Spirit confronted me about
433
00:19:32.340 --> 00:19:34.110
what Christ had done in my life
434
00:19:34.110 --> 00:19:37.020
and made me to realize I have a righteous
435
00:19:37.020 --> 00:19:38.490
standing before God.
436
00:19:38.490 --> 00:19:42.150
And this is a revelation
which only can be revealed
437
00:19:42.150 --> 00:19:43.170
through the convincing
438
00:19:43.170 --> 00:19:46.350
or the convicting work of the Holy Spirit.
439
00:19:46.350 --> 00:19:48.690
Oh my goodness, this is so powerful,
440
00:19:48.690 --> 00:19:51.240
what the Holy Spirit does for us.
441
00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:52.710
But then we continue.
442
00:19:52.710 --> 00:19:56.160
And when you come to verse 13,
it says, how be it when He,
443
00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:57.450
the spirit of truth is come,
444
00:19:57.450 --> 00:20:00.390
he will guide you into all the truth.
445
00:20:00.390 --> 00:20:01.560
Now, hold on to that
446
00:20:01.560 --> 00:20:02.790
because that's what I'm gonna talk
447
00:20:02.790 --> 00:20:04.560
to you about in the next episode.
448
00:20:04.560 --> 00:20:07.920
But it goes on to say that he
shall not speak of himself,
449
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:11.100
but whatsoever he shall
hear that, shall he speak
450
00:20:11.100 --> 00:20:13.605
and he will show you things to come.
451
00:20:13.605 --> 00:20:18.240
And the word, speak, is a form of the Greek word, laleo.
452
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:21.600
The word, laleo, means to carry on a conversation,
453
00:20:21.600 --> 00:20:24.180
which means God really wants to speak to you; he wants
454
00:20:24.180 --> 00:20:26.100
to speak to you through his written word.
455
00:20:26.100 --> 00:20:28.260
But if you'll open up your spiritual ears,
456
00:20:28.260 --> 00:20:32.280
the Holy Spirit communicates to us - laleo - he fluently,
457
00:20:32.280 --> 00:20:36.270
freely speaks to those
who have an ear to listen.
458
00:20:36.270 --> 00:20:40.200
But then the verse tells us in verse 14,
459
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:44.070
he shall glorify me, for he shall receive of mine
460
00:20:44.070 --> 00:20:45.420
and shall show it unto you.
461
00:20:45.420 --> 00:20:50.140
And the word glorify means
to audaciously glorify.
462
00:20:50.140 --> 00:20:51.310
If you're one of those people
463
00:20:51.310 --> 00:20:53.890
who has a hard time
expressing yourself verbally
464
00:20:53.890 --> 00:20:56.110
or physically, when you worship God,
465
00:20:56.110 --> 00:20:58.150
the Holy Spirit is a worshiper.
466
00:20:58.150 --> 00:21:00.730
And if you'll just hook up
with the Holy Spirit, he loves
467
00:21:00.730 --> 00:21:03.670
to worship Jesus; he has come to glorify Jesus
468
00:21:03.670 --> 00:21:05.080
and he will liberate you
469
00:21:05.080 --> 00:21:07.960
and help you to enter into
praise and into worship.
470
00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:10.960
And then Jesus said -
are you ready for this?
471
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:14.290
He shall receive of mind
and shall show it unto you.
472
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:17.050
Therefore, we find that
one of the ministries
473
00:21:17.050 --> 00:21:18.850
of the Holy Spirit is revelation.
474
00:21:18.850 --> 00:21:23.110
He wants to declare to us everything he knows about Jesus.
475
00:21:23.110 --> 00:21:24.550
He is a revelatory.
476
00:21:25.900 --> 00:21:28.150
Now my friends, these are all features of
477
00:21:28.150 --> 00:21:30.370
what the Holy Spirit
wants to do in our life.
478
00:21:30.370 --> 00:21:33.310
And this is why we need
to really interface
479
00:21:33.310 --> 00:21:35.380
with the Holy Spirit and allow him
480
00:21:35.380 --> 00:21:38.080
to do his work in our lives.
481
00:21:38.080 --> 00:21:39.910
We have covered a lot today,
482
00:21:39.910 --> 00:21:42.190
but I've got more to share
with you in the next episode.
483
00:21:42.190 --> 00:21:43.720

522
00:23:27.790 --> 00:23:30.820
And this is the room
where they do production.
523
00:23:30.820 --> 00:23:33.790
And just recently they expanded this room
524
00:23:33.790 --> 00:23:38.230
because we are sending resources to the ends of the Earth.
525
00:23:38.230 --> 00:23:40.900
And when I talk about resources, I'm talking about books.
526
00:23:40.900 --> 00:23:43.810
You know, I've written a lot
of books and things like this.
527
00:23:43.810 --> 00:23:46.250
Here is a USB of had a Float on the Sea
528
00:23:46.250 --> 00:23:47.900
of Destruction in the Last Days.
529
00:23:47.900 --> 00:23:49.550
We produce that right here
530
00:23:49.550 --> 00:23:52.610
or the audio series of the same series.
531
00:23:52.610 --> 00:23:53.990
A lot of people want it in the video.
532
00:23:53.990 --> 00:23:55.790
I really like the video
because we show a lot
533
00:23:55.790 --> 00:23:57.920
of interesting things on the programs.
534
00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:01.550
But in addition to this, we
also do the study guides.
535
00:24:01.550 --> 00:24:03.350
And you know why I love my study guides
536
00:24:03.350 --> 00:24:05.960
because I put a lot of work into these study guides.
537
00:24:05.960 --> 00:24:08.870
It's nearly like writing an entire book
538
00:24:08.870 --> 00:24:11.120
for every series that we do.
539
00:24:11.120 --> 00:24:13.250
And boy, this is a good one.
540
00:24:13.250 --> 00:24:16.190
If you don't have this
series, you need to order it.
541
00:24:16.190 --> 00:24:18.680
But the reason I'm telling you this is
542
00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:22.790
because all of this is produced
right here in this room in
543
00:24:22.790 --> 00:24:24.920
our Tulsa facility.
544
00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:27.890
You know, several years ago
when we started our Ministry
545
00:24:27.890 --> 00:24:30.800
Expansion Project, it was quite large.
546
00:24:30.800 --> 00:24:35.060
70% of it is already finished
and I want to say thank you.
547
00:24:35.060 --> 00:24:36.320
And now we need to keep it up
548
00:24:36.320 --> 00:24:39.320
until we knock out the remaining 30%.
549
00:24:39.320 --> 00:24:42.950
And I want to say thank you
for everything you've given us
550
00:24:42.950 --> 00:24:44.480
to help us reduce this debt.
551
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:46.010
It's really not for us.
552
00:24:46.010 --> 00:24:48.170
It's so we can liberate this debt
553
00:24:48.170 --> 00:24:51.020
and then begin to use all of our resources
554
00:24:51.020 --> 00:24:52.220
to take this teaching
555
00:24:52.220 --> 00:24:54.830
and these materials to
the ends of the Earth.
556
00:24:54.830 --> 00:24:58.400
And that includes a lot
of materials that we give.
557
00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:01.100
We sow a lot of our material
558
00:25:01.100 --> 00:25:03.980
because there are many people
who cannot afford to pay
559
00:25:03.980 --> 00:25:07.040
and we want them to have the
teaching of the word of God
560
00:25:07.040 --> 00:25:08.690
that they can trust.
561
00:25:08.690 --> 00:25:11.120
And if you're not a part
of our giving team already,
562
00:25:11.120 --> 00:25:13.730
please pray about being
a part of our giving team
563
00:25:13.730 --> 00:25:17.330
to reduce the debt in the
Ministry Expansion Project
564
00:25:17.330 --> 00:25:18.890
so we can move on
565
00:25:18.890 --> 00:25:21.260
and take the light of the gospel further
566
00:25:21.260 --> 00:25:22.310
to the ends of the earth.
567
00:25:27.500 --> 00:25:28.520
Today I've been talking
568
00:25:28.520 --> 00:25:31.280
to you about the things
the Holy Spirit is sent
569
00:25:31.280 --> 00:25:32.870
to do for us.
570
00:25:32.870 --> 00:25:35.960
My friends, we've gotta submit
to his authority, we've got
571
00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:38.810
to make a determination,
we're going to hear him
572
00:25:38.810 --> 00:25:41.000
and then we're going to explicitly obey
573
00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:42.350
what he tells us to do.
574
00:25:42.350 --> 00:25:44.600
And if we'll open ourselves
to the Holy Spirit on
575
00:25:44.600 --> 00:25:46.730
that level, he will begin to do all
576
00:25:46.730 --> 00:25:49.070
of these wonderful things for us.
577
00:25:49.070 --> 00:25:50.570
But I want you to have the whole series,
578
00:25:50.570 --> 00:25:52.370
which is called the Actions
579
00:25:52.370 --> 00:25:54.350
and Personality of the Holy Spirit.
580
00:25:54.350 --> 00:25:57.290
This is so important and it
comes with a study guide.
581
00:25:57.290 --> 00:26:00.170
And we're also offering you now my book,
582
00:26:00.170 --> 00:26:04.100
which is called My Victory Filled Day: A Sparkling Gems from
583
00:26:04.100 --> 00:26:06.650
the Greek Guided Devotional Journey.
584
00:26:06.650 --> 00:26:10.340
Jesus wants you to have victory every day of your life.
585
00:26:10.340 --> 00:26:12.710
It doesn't mean you're not gonna have problems,
586
00:26:12.710 --> 00:26:15.020
but in the midst of your
problems, he can cause you
587
00:26:15.020 --> 00:26:16.400
to have victory.
588
00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:17.810
And that's why you need
589
00:26:17.810 --> 00:26:19.730
to read this book from page one
590
00:26:19.730 --> 00:26:20.960
all the way to the end of the book.
591
00:26:20.960 --> 00:26:25.160
It will walk you into
a victory filled day.
592
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:27.050
But my friends, we wanna pray for you.
593
00:26:27.050 --> 00:26:28.310
So please reach out to us
594
00:26:28.310 --> 00:26:31.220
by calling the number on the
screen or send us an email
595
00:26:31.220 --> 00:26:32.420
and we're gonna release our faith.
596
00:26:32.420 --> 00:26:35.120
And Jesus is gonna do
what needs to be done.
597
00:26:35.120 --> 00:26:36.110
And I wanna pray for you now.
598
00:26:36.110 --> 00:26:37.220
So put your hand on your heart.
599
00:26:37.220 --> 00:26:39.560
Father, in Jesus' name, I thank you
600
00:26:39.560 --> 00:26:42.380
that you've sent the Holy Spirit to us so
601
00:26:42.380 --> 00:26:45.030
that we're not orphans,
just left alone on our own.
602
00:26:45.030 --> 00:26:48.810
Help us to submit to the
authority of the Holy Spirit
603
00:26:48.810 --> 00:26:52.110
and Holy Spirit, we ask you
to unleash all these things
604
00:26:52.110 --> 00:26:53.460
that you want to do in our life
605
00:26:53.460 --> 00:26:55.890
and help us to interface with you so
606
00:26:55.890 --> 00:27:00.150
that we enjoy the benefits of
what you want to do for us.
607
00:27:00.150 --> 00:27:04.470
In Jesus' name, amen. I'll
see you in the next program.
608
00:27:04.470 --> 00:27:07.530
But remember Ecclesiastes 8:4 says, "Where the word
609
00:27:07.530 --> 00:27:10.170
of a king is, there is power."
610
00:27:11.250 --> 00:27:13.500
If you've never received Jesus as your Savior
611
00:27:13.500 --> 00:27:17.910
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
612
00:27:17.910 --> 00:27:20.070
Jesus has to give you.
613
00:27:20.070 --> 00:27:24.120
Pray this prayer with me right now; Lord,
614
00:27:24.120 --> 00:27:28.140
I repented my sin and
receive you as my Savior
615
00:27:28.140 --> 00:27:31.140
and Lord. Wash away my sin
616
00:27:31.140 --> 00:27:34.140
and make me completely new.
617
00:27:34.140 --> 00:27:38.010
I thank you that my sin is removed
618
00:27:38.010 --> 00:27:42.630
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
619
00:27:43.470 --> 00:27:46.140
I faithfully promise that I will serve you
620
00:27:46.140 --> 00:27:48.150
as my Lord for the rest
621
00:27:48.150 --> 00:27:50.040
of my life -
622
00:27:50.040 --> 00:27:53.910
Amen. Renner Ministries
