YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, BUT HERE'S THE 37:14.849 --> 37:18.420 THING. SOMETIMES I EVEN TURN ALL THAT OFF, AND I'M LIKE, 37:18.420 --> 37:21.360 YOU KNOW WHAT, GOD, I'M GONNA MAKE UP A SONG. AND 37:21.360 --> 37:23.820 SOMETIMES IT SOUNDS LIKE COUNTRY MUSIC, YOU KNOW? 37:23.820 --> 37:32.130 EVERYTHING IS BAD, RIGHT? BUT THEN I GET SHIFTING OVER 37:32.130 --> 37:35.398 INTO WHERE I FOCUS ON HIM. BUT LET ME TELL YOU 37:35.398 --> 37:38.010 SOMETHING, AND I WANT SOME BELIEVERS NOW, I WANT YOU TO 37:38.010 --> 37:40.170 COME OUT OF YOUR CHAIRS, COME OUT, SOME OF YOU DOWN 37:40.170 --> 37:42.052 HERE, AND I WANT YOU TO FIND SOMEBODY, PUT YOUR HAND ON 37:42.052 --> 37:44.550 'EM. WHY AM I ASKING YOU TO PUT YOUR HAND ON SOMEBODY? 37:44.550 --> 37:47.460 HERE'S WHY, ON THEIR SHOULDER. BECAUSE WHEN PETER 37:47.460 --> 37:51.510 STARTED SINKING, YOU KNOW WHAT JESUS DID? HE COULD 37:51.510 --> 37:56.519 HAVE SAID, "ARISE, PETER." AND SUPERNATURALLY, PETER 37:56.519 --> 38:00.420 COULD HAVE JUST COME RIGHT OUT OF THAT WATER WITHOUT 38:00.420 --> 38:05.519 ANYTHING, RIGHT? DID JESUS GO, "ARISE, PETER." THIS 38:05.519 --> 38:07.739 YOUNG PEOPLE RIGHT HERE, THEY NEED SOMEBODY TO PUT 38:07.739 --> 38:10.050 THEIR HAND ON THEM. COME ON, COME ON, COME CLOSER, IT'S 38:10.050 --> 38:13.500 OKAY, COME CLOSER. COME CLOSER, I WANT SOME PEOPLE. 38:13.500 --> 38:15.364 COME ON MATT, COME ON DOWN HERE, GET CLOSER TO THESE 38:15.364 --> 38:21.119 PEOPLE. JESUS COULD HAVE SAID, HEY, PETER, ARISE, 38:21.119 --> 38:24.150 WHEN HE STARTED SINKING, AND PETER COULD HAVE JUST, SHH. 38:24.150 --> 38:26.579 BUT NOTICE WHAT JESUS DID, REMEMBER THE STORY, WHAT DID 38:26.579 --> 38:33.300 JESUS DO? HE LET HIM FEEL HIS TOUCH. JESUS REACHED OUT 38:33.300 --> 38:39.570 AND LET HIM FEEL HIS TOUCH. AND SOMETIMES WHEN YOU'RE 38:39.570 --> 38:44.010 GOING THROUGH SOMETHING, YOU NEED THE TOUCH OF GOD, BUT 38:44.010 --> 38:46.050 SOMETIMES YOU NEED THE TOUCH OF SOMEBODY ELSE THAT'S 38:46.050 --> 38:48.809 SAYING, YOU KNOW WHAT, COME HELL OR HIGH WATER, I'M 38:48.809 --> 38:53.670 GONNA STAND WITH GOD WITH YOU. 'CAUSE I'VE BEEN, I'VE 38:53.670 --> 38:55.860 GONE THROUGH THINGS WHEN I FELT LIKE, GOD, THERE IS 38:55.860 --> 39:00.780 NOBODY THAT UNDERSTANDS WHAT I'M FEELING. NOBODY 39:00.780 --> 39:02.280 UNDERSTANDS. EVEN IF I TALKED TO THEM, THEY 39:02.280 --> 39:05.820 WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND. BUT SOMETIMES IT'S JUST THAT 39:05.820 --> 39:10.739 TOUCH, JUST THAT TOUCH. HEAVENLY FATHER, TODAY I 39:10.739 --> 39:13.769 PRAY FOR EVERY PERSON IN THE SOUND OF MY VOICE AND THOSE 39:13.769 --> 39:17.969 THAT ARE WATCHING. IN FACT, I'M TOUCHING MY PHONE AS A 39:17.969 --> 39:21.420 POINT OF CONTACT THAT GOD NOT ONLY IS THIS PASTOR 39:21.420 --> 39:24.659 REACHING OUT TO THOSE THAT ARE ON THE STREAM, TOUCHING 39:24.659 --> 39:27.960 THEM WITH MY PRAYER AND MY HEART, MY LOVE FOR THEM AS 39:27.960 --> 39:33.300 WELL. BUT GOD, WE'RE EXPECTING THE SAME ARM, THE 39:33.300 --> 39:37.769 SAME HAND THAT REACHED OUT TO PETER. IN HIS MOMENT, 39:37.769 --> 39:41.099 LORD, WHERE IT FELT LIKE THE STORM WAS GREAT AND IT 39:41.099 --> 39:44.190 LOOKED AS THOUGH THAT HIS LIFE WAS SINKING AND HE 39:44.190 --> 39:48.179 NEEDED INTERVENTION, LORD, YOU REACHED OUT AND YOU 39:48.179 --> 39:51.659 TOUCHED HIM AND YOU RAISED HIM UP WITH A DIVINE LIFT 39:51.659 --> 39:55.860 AND THIS IS WHAT WE PRAY TODAY. OH GOD OF THE 39:55.860 --> 39:59.786 HEAVENS, THE LORD OF THE EARTH AND THE SEA AND ALL 39:59.786 --> 40:04.199 THINGS CREATED, BOTH VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE. I AM ASKING 40:04.199 --> 40:09.210 YOU, REACH YOUR HAND THAT IS NOT SO SHORT, THAT IT CANNOT 40:09.210 --> 40:13.215 SHIFT, THAT IT CANNOT CHANGE, THAT IT CANNOT BRING 40:13.215 --> 40:16.275 A BREAKTHROUGH, GOD. I AM ASKING YOU TO REACH YOUR 40:16.275 --> 40:20.219 HAND OUT TO EVERY PERSON IN THE SOUND OF MY VOICE AND 40:20.219 --> 40:24.494 BEGIN TO BRING THEM INTO A DIVINE LIFTING. FATHER, I 40:24.494 --> 40:27.795 BREAK EVERY ASSIGNMENT AGAINST THEM. I REBUKE 40:27.795 --> 40:32.085 DISCOURAGEMENT, DEPRESSION, LORD GOD, ANXIETY, 40:32.085 --> 40:36.648 CONFUSION, ANY OPPRESSION, DEPRESSION, LORD GOD THAT 40:36.648 --> 40:40.304 THE ENEMY IS TRYING TO BRING. THROUGH THE POWER OF 40:40.304 --> 40:44.505 YOUR TOUCH, I'M ASKING YOU TO LIFT THAT YOKE OFF OF 40:44.505 --> 40:51.045 THEM. LIFT THAT BURDEN FROM THEM, OH GOD, AND RESET 40:51.045 --> 40:56.175 THEIR PATH. ORDER THEIR DAY THAT THE JOY OF THE LORD 40:56.175 --> 41:01.244 SHALL BEGIN TO ARISE, AND HEAVENLY RAINS AND FRUITFUL 41:01.244 --> 41:12.045 SEASONS. LET IT BE ESTABLISHED OVER THEM. LET 41:12.045 --> 41:20.445 IT BE ESTABLISHED UPON THEM. FATHER, WE ARE ASKING FOR 41:20.445 --> 41:26.414 YOUR INTERVENTION. WE ARE CALLING UPON GREAT GRACE. WE 41:26.414 --> 41:30.344 ARE CALLING ON YOUR MERCY. WE ARE CALLING UPON YOUR 41:30.344 --> 41:34.215 HELP IN THE TIME OF THEIR NEED. WE ARE CALLING UPON 41:34.215 --> 41:37.724 THE GOD WHO DOES EXCEEDINGLY, ABUNDANTLY 41:37.724 --> 41:41.655 BEYOND ALL THAT WE ASK OR THINK. NOW LORD, DIVINE 41:41.655 --> 41:45.885 INTERVENTIONS, DIVINE INTERVENTIONS. NO MORE 41:45.885 --> 41:52.605 DELAY, NO FRUSTRATION. FATHER, IMMEDIATELY YESHUA 41:52.605 --> 41:56.565 LIFTED PETER OUT OF THAT PLACE. HE DIDN'T MAKE HIM 41:56.565 --> 42:01.605 WAIT. HE DIDN'T MAKE HIM WAIT UNTIL HE WAS UNDERWATER 42:01.605 --> 42:11.594 COMPLETELY. JUST IN GOD TIME, JUST IN THE PERFECT 42:11.594 --> 42:19.155 GOD INTERVENTION MOMENT, THE HAND REACHED OUT AND PETER 42:19.155 --> 42:29.295 WAS LIFTED AND HIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS RESET. GOD, 42:29.295 --> 42:33.284 THIS IS WHAT WE'RE EXPECTING AND WHAT WE'RE ASKING. NOW 42:33.284 --> 42:36.284 THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE BELIEVING GOD, JUST TAKE A 42:36.284 --> 42:41.474 DEEP BREATH AND AS YOU INHALE, JUST INHALE THE 42:41.474 --> 42:45.644 BREATH OF GOD, HIS PEACE, HIS JOY, HIS COMFORT, HIS 42:45.644 --> 42:50.835 STRENGTH. AND THEN JUST LET IT OUT. LORD, I JUST RELEASE 42:50.835 --> 42:56.894 FROM MY SOUL ANYTHING THAT THE ENEMY IS TRYING TO GET 42:56.894 --> 43:01.695 IN MY HEAD AND MY EMOTIONS ABOUT. ALIGN MY WILL AND MY 43:01.695 --> 43:10.574 PATH. TO BE ACCORDING TO YOUR PERFECT WILL. IN JESUS 43:10.574 --> 43:15.945 NAME. SEE SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOT TO DO THAT. AMEN.

BECAUSE DO YOU KNOW 50:46.230 --> 50:49.650 THAT BACK TO CHURCH SUNDAY SHOULD REALLY HAPPEN EVERY 50:49.650 --> 50:56.789 WEEK? AMEN? THAT'S OUR JOB AS CHRISTIANS, TO SHARE THE 50:56.789 --> 51:00.269 GOSPEL. AND PART OF THE WAY THAT YOU CAN DO THAT IS TO 51:00.269 --> 51:04.530 INVITE PEOPLE TO CHURCH.

AND IT'S EASY TO SAY, "DO YOU HAPPEN 52:07.260 --> 52:10.289 TO HAVE A CHURCH THAT YOU ATTEND?" AND IF THEY SAY NO, 52:10.289 --> 52:13.860 YOU'VE GOT THE GREEN LIGHT TO GIVE THEM AN INVITATION. 52:13.860 --> 52:18.420 WE HAVE TO DO OUR PART AS DISCIPLES TO FAN THE FLAMES 52:18.420 --> 52:23.070 OF REVIVAL AS IT'S HAPPENING IN THIS EARTH, AMEN? WE DO 52:23.070 --> 52:27.570 OUR PART TO SHARE. AND ONE OF THE PURPOSES OF OUR 52:27.570 --> 52:32.699 CORPORATE ASSEMBLY HERE TODAY IS TO EMPOWER US TO BE 52:32.699 --> 52:37.380 STRONGER WHEN WE GO OUT AND DO WHAT WE'RE CALLED TO DO 52:37.380 --> 52:40.739 IN OUR CIRCLE OF INFLUENCE. THIS IS THE TIME WE GET 52:40.739 --> 52:45.119 EMPOWERED TO GO OUT AND DO THIS. AND IT'S EXCITING TO 52:45.119 --> 52:47.579 DO THAT. HOW MANY OF YOU WILL HELP ME WITH THIS? 52:47.579 --> 52:49.739 YOU'LL CONTINUE INVITING, YOU'LL GET SOME CARDS AND 52:49.739 --> 52:51.960 PUT THEM IN YOUR WALLET. THANK YOU SO MUCH, I 52:51.960 --> 52:55.650 APPRECIATE IT. GOD BLESS YOU AND WE'LL LOOK FORWARD FOR 52:55.650 --> 52:59.512 CONTINUED GROWTH, AMEN, IN THE KINGDOM. OKAY, PASTOR BRENDA. 53:00.449 --> 53:03.030 - THANK YOU FOR THAT, PASTOR DOUG. I REALLY APPRECIATE 53:03.030 --> 53:07.199 IT. AND JUST TO UNDERSCORE THE POINT OF WHAT YOU SAID, 53:07.199 --> 53:10.469 AND I THINK THIS IS SO GOOD, PASTOR CHELSEA WAS TELLING 53:10.469 --> 53:15.090 ME ON THE WAY OUT HERE THAT SOMEONE HAD SAID TO HER THAT 53:16.409 --> 53:19.530 THEY WERE INVITED TO CHURCH, I THINK IT WAS LAST SUNDAY, 53:19.530 --> 53:23.219 AND HAD NEVER, NOBODY ALL THEIR LIFE HAD EVER INVITED 53:23.219 --> 53:26.916 THEM TO CHURCH. NOW THINK ABOUT THAT, AND IF YOU 53:26.916 --> 53:30.809 REMEMBER PASTOR DOUG SHARING THE STATISTICS LAST WEEK, IS 53:30.809 --> 53:34.440 THE REASON SOME PEOPLE NEVER GO TO A CHURCH IS BECAUSE 53:34.440 --> 53:37.710 NOBODY ASKED THEM. AND SO I THOUGHT, WELL, WHAT AN EASY 53:37.710 --> 53:40.949 WITNESSING TOOL. YOU KNOW, THAT'S JUST ONE WITNESSING 53:40.949 --> 53:43.679 TOOL ON BEING ABLE TO JUST SAY TO SOMEBODY, HEY, MY 53:43.679 --> 53:47.309 CHURCH, AND COME AND VISIT. AND YOU'D BE SURPRISED HOW 53:47.309 --> 53:49.800 MANY PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, WE ALWAYS THINK WE'D GET TURNED 53:49.800 --> 53:52.409 DOWN OR SOMEBODY WILL SAY NO, BUT I THINK WE'RE GONNA 53:52.409 --> 53:56.489 GET MORE YESES. PEOPLE ARE RIPE RIGHT NOW TO HAVE 53:56.489 --> 53:58.559 SOMEBODY REACH OUT TO THEM AND SHOW THEM THE WAY TO 53:58.559 --> 54:01.320 GOD. SO AMEN, THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THAT, PASTOR DOUG. 54:01.320 --> 54:05.099 THAT WAS AMAZING. JUST A COUPLE QUICK THINGS, WANNA 54:05.099 --> 54:07.860 REMIND EVERYBODY, IF YOU HAVE NOT, PASTOR SHANE WAS 54:07.860 --> 54:10.710 TALKING ABOUT OVTV, IF YOU MISSED ANY OF THE SERVICES 54:10.710 --> 54:14.280 FROM OPENING THE HEAVENS, GO BACK OUT TO OVTV, THOSE ARE 54:14.280 --> 54:17.550 AVAILABLE OUT THERE, AND CHECK 'EM OUT. I ALWAYS LIKE 54:17.550 --> 54:20.940 TO THINK OF THESE EVENTS NEVER AS ONE AND DONE. KEEP 54:20.940 --> 54:23.699 FEEDING OFF OF THAT GOOD WORD THAT CAME FORTH. I 54:23.699 --> 54:26.219 MEAN, THERE WAS SOME PREACHING. I THOUGHT WHEN 54:26.219 --> 54:32.253 LORENZO STUHL WAS, I WAS GONNA RUN THAT AUDITORIUM. I'M TELLING 54:32.253 --> 54:35.583 YOU RIGHT NOW, THAT MAN IS A PREACHING MACHINE. I'M LIKE, 54:35.583 --> 54:38.199 AT ONE POINT HE'S SCREAMING, SO I THOUGHT, BROTHER, I DON'T 54:38.199 --> 54:40.230 KNOW WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, BUT THIS IS AWESOME. 54:40.230 --> 54:43.438 (AUDIENCE LAUGHING) 54:43.438 --> 54:46.949 BUT IT WAS JUST INCREDIBLE, AND I JUST LOVED IT. AND SO 54:46.949 --> 54:49.380 GO BACK OUT AND CHECK THOSE OUT. BUT I DO HAVE ONE GOOD 54:49.380 --> 54:51.480 ANNOUNCEMENT, AND I FORGOT TO MENTION THIS TO MEDIA. I 54:51.480 --> 54:54.630 DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAVE A GRAPHIC FOR IT. BUT JOHN 54:54.630 --> 54:59.250 AMACHUKWU IS GONNA BE WITH US OCTOBER THE 26TH, SUNDAY 54:59.250 --> 55:03.719 MORNING.

AND HE HAS STOOD BEFORE THESE BOARDS 55:15.150 --> 55:18.000 FEARLESSLY AND WE'RE SO THANKFUL. BUT THE MAN HAS 55:18.000 --> 55:20.670 GOT A PREACHING ANOINTING AND HE'S GONNA BE HERE. SO 55:20.670 --> 55:24.539 BE HERE FOR THAT SUNDAY AS WELL. AND I THINK YOU WILL 55:24.539 --> 55:27.510 BE TOTALLY BLESSED. AND I DON'T KNOW, I FEEL LIKE 55:27.510 --> 55:32.760 RIGHT IN ADVANCE OF ONE OF THE MOST EVIL DAYS OF THE 55:32.760 --> 55:35.190 YEAR, I DON'T EVEN LIKE TO CALL IT HALLOWEEN 'CAUSE 55:35.190 --> 55:38.519 IT'S NOT, THE DEVIL DOESN'T GET THAT DAY. BUT ONE OF THE 55:38.519 --> 55:42.300 MOST DAYS OF THE YEAR THAT THE OCCULT USES FOR WICKED 55:42.300 --> 55:48.648 AND EVIL THINGS, HE'S GOING TO BE HERE DEFENDING CHILDREN. AND 55:48.681 --> 55:53.219 YEAH GIVE GOD A HANDCLAP FOR THAT. AND THEN THAT FOLLOWING 55:53.253 --> 55:56.489 WEDNESDAY THE 29TH, WE'RE DOING A SPECIAL EVENT. NOW GUYS IT 55:56.523 --> 55:59.873 ONLINE ONLY BECAUSE THIS IS REALLY A PITCH 55:59.893 --> 56:02.880 OUT TO THE WORLD, AND WE WANNA FOCUS ON 56:02.880 --> 56:06.570 THAT. WE'RE GONNA DO A NIGHT OF PRAYER, ANOTHER RESCUING 56:06.570 --> 56:10.050 A GENERATION EVENT, AND WE'RE GONNA BE LITERALLY, 56:10.050 --> 56:12.090 AND THE REASON WE'RE DOING IT ONLINE ONLY IS WE ARE 56:12.090 --> 56:14.820 GONNA OPEN PHONE LINES FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE CHURCH 56:14.820 --> 56:18.952 THAT NIGHT TO TAKE PRAYER REQUESTS, PEOPLE CALLING IN 56:18.952 --> 56:22.260 FOR THEIR KIDS, THEIR GRANDCHILDREN, JUST 56:22.260 --> 56:25.710 BELIEVING GOD AGAIN IN ADVANCE OF ONE OF THE MOST 56:25.710 --> 56:30.119 EVIL DAYS OF THE YEAR. SO THIS IS THE 29TH AND 56:30.119 --> 56:33.239 RESCUING A GENERATION. WE'RE GONNA DO PRAYER REQUESTS 56:33.239 --> 56:36.869 INSTEAD OF THE PICTURES THIS YEAR. SO IT'S A CALL-IN 56:36.869 --> 56:40.230 EVENT, AND WE WANT YOU TO BE ABLE TO CALL IN. WE'RE GONNA 56:40.230 --> 56:43.230 TAKE, PRAY FOR US. HOW MANY OF YOU WILL PRAY FOR US? 56:43.230 --> 56:45.239 THIS WILL BE LIKE THE FIRST TIME WE'VE DONE OUR OWN 56:45.239 --> 56:50.190 CALL-IN CENTER, RIGHT HERE ON THE CAMPUS. AND SO WE ARE 56:50.190 --> 56:53.460 THANKFUL FOR OUR CURRENT CALL CENTER THAT HELP US AND 56:53.460 --> 56:57.869 THEY TAKE DIRECTION FROM US FOR PRAYER. AND I'M TELLING 56:57.869 --> 57:00.599 YOU, I AM BELIEVING THAT WE ARE GONNA HAVE THOUSANDS OF 57:00.599 --> 57:04.800 PEOPLE THAT REALLY RECEIVE MINISTRY. PASTOR'S ALSO 57:04.800 --> 57:07.800 GONNA TALK ABOUT THE NEW THINGS. HOW MANY OF YOU WERE 57:07.800 --> 57:10.260 AT THE PARTNER LUNCHEON AT OPENING THE HEAVENS? ANYBODY 57:10.260 --> 57:13.710 THAT WAS AT THAT? I KNOW THAT WAS A TICKETED EVENT 57:13.710 --> 57:18.630 FOR THAT CONFERENCE, BUT PASTOR'S GONNA BE TALKING 57:18.630 --> 57:21.210 ABOUT SOME OF THE THINGS THAT HE KIND OF UNVEILED A 57:21.210 --> 57:24.510 LITTLE BIT AT THE PARTNER LUNCHEON REGARDING THE 57:24.510 --> 57:27.989 CHILDREN'S BOOKS. AND WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY RIGHT 57:27.989 --> 57:30.570 NOW, YOU'RE GONNA BE HEARING A LOT ABOUT THIS. YOU KNOW, 57:30.570 --> 57:35.070 YOU HEAR SO MUCH ABOUT AI AND HOW AI IS BAD, RIGHT? 57:35.070 --> 57:38.190 BUT WITH EVERY BAD, THERE'S GOOD. AND SO SAME WAY WITH 57:38.190 --> 57:41.820 SOCIAL MEDIA. I THINK SOCIAL MEDIA HAS GOT A LOT OF BAD, 57:41.820 --> 57:44.969 BUT RIGHT NOW SOCIAL MEDIA IS BEING USED FOR AMAZING 57:44.969 --> 57:48.989 THINGS. AND SO I THINK AI CAN BE CAPTURED FOR THE 57:48.989 --> 57:52.230 KINGDOM OF GOD. AND WHEN IT COMES TO THE CHILDREN'S 57:52.230 --> 57:56.460 MATERIAL, WE ARE CAPTURING A GENERATION. WE HAVE 57:56.460 --> 57:59.429 DISCOVERED NOW WITH PAUL CROUCH AND THE ANIMATION 57:59.429 --> 58:02.699 COMPANY, THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO TAKE PASTORS, AND WE'VE 58:02.699 --> 58:05.550 GOT TO WORK OUT A FEW BUGS, BUT THEY ARE ABLE TO TAKE 58:05.550 --> 58:08.880 ALL OF PASTORS' CHILDREN'S ANIMATION, WHICH WE'RE 58:08.880 --> 58:11.340 FOCUSING ON THE ZEPTO SERIES RIGHT NOW. HOW MANY OF YOU 58:11.340 --> 58:16.391 SAW THE FIRST VIDEO OF THAT? PASTOR, HOW MANY OF YOU 58:16.391 --> 58:21.510 LOVED IT? IT'S JUST AWESOME. BUT WE HAVE FOUND OUT THAT 58:21.510 --> 58:24.538 WE CAN, WHAT USED TO BE, I DON'T KNOW, IT WAS 300, 58:24.538 --> 58:29.219 350,000 TO DO A SINGLE ANIMATED VIDEO, 30 MINUTES. 58:29.219 --> 58:33.750 I MEAN, THIS IS THE COST OF WHAT IT TAKES. AND PAUL WILL 58:33.750 --> 58:35.789 TELL YOU, I'M JUST GONNA TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO SAY 58:35.789 --> 58:39.389 THIS, PAUL CROUCH JR. WILL TELL YOU THAT FOR EVERY 58:39.389 --> 58:42.900 SINGLE FRAME THAT YOU SEE IN ANIMATION, IT'S LIKE 20 OR 58:42.900 --> 58:46.980 30 DRAWINGS. ALL THE WAY THROUGH. THIS IS, IT TAKES 58:46.980 --> 58:50.760 SO LONG TO PUT THESE TOGETHER, AND THAT'S WHY, 58:50.760 --> 58:53.099 PART OF THE REASON WHY IT'S SO EXPENSIVE. NOW, SOME OF 58:53.099 --> 58:56.849 THE COST IS YOU HAVE TO GET YOUR VOICEOVERS AND MUSIC, 58:56.849 --> 59:00.030 IT'S SO MUCH DIFFERENT THAN PRINTING AND PUBLISHING. BUT 59:00.030 --> 59:05.159 WE FOUND OUT WITH THE USE OF AI THAT WE CAN DO ONE 59:05.159 --> 59:09.090 30-MINUTE VIDEO FOR THE PRICE, FOR ONE 30-MINUTE, 59:09.090 --> 59:13.963 FOR A THIRD OF THE COST. SO WHAT USED TO BE 350,000 IS 59:13.963 --> 59:20.099 JUST OVER THE $100,000 MARK. FOLKS, THIS IS, WE HAVE GOT 59:20.099 --> 59:25.079 TO SEIZE THIS MOMENT. I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW, AND 59:25.079 --> 59:28.260 PASTOR'S HEART AND HIS PLAN, WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT THIS 59:28.260 --> 59:31.380 THAT NIGHT, THAT WE'RE PRAYING FOR THE KIDS. 59:31.380 --> 59:34.739 PASTOR'S HEART AND HIS PASSION IS TO GET THESE ON 59:34.739 --> 59:38.579 NETWORKS, COME ON, MEDIA OUTLETS, AND COME ON, LET'S 59:38.579 --> 59:42.840 GIVE GOD A PRAISE FOR THAT. WE ARE DETERMINED. WE ARE 59:42.840 --> 59:46.679 COMMITTED TO IT, AND WE'VE NEVER LET FINANCES HOLD US 59:46.679 --> 59:50.219 BACK BEFORE. AND SO WE ARE JUST GONNA KEEP GOING 59:50.219 --> 59:54.119 FORWARD AND GETTING IT DONE. AND I MEAN, OUR GOAL IS 59:54.119 --> 59:56.969 MAYBE RIGHT AFTER JANUARY, WE'RE GONNA GET STARTED 59:56.969 --> 59:59.670 RIGHT AWAY. THE FUNDS THAT WE RAISED AT THE LUNCHEON, 59:59.670 --> 01:00:02.340 WE'RE PRETTY CLOSE TO BEING ABLE TO GET A WHOLE VIDEO 01:00:02.340 --> 01:00:05.219 DONE. WE'RE GONNA GET STARTED ON THAT RIGHT AWAY. 01:00:05.219 --> 01:00:10.469 MOST OF THE OUTLETS NEED PROBABLY MINIMALLY FOUR, SO 01:00:10.469 --> 01:00:13.409 THAT WE CAN, THEY'RE NEVER GONNA TAKE A ONE AND DONE. 01:00:13.409 --> 01:00:16.889 COMPANIES LIKE PUREFLEX AND THESE OTHER OUTLETS, TO GET 01:00:16.889 --> 01:00:20.340 THEM TO TAKE THESE, THEY'LL NEVER TAKE ON THE 01:00:20.340 --> 01:00:23.429 INVESTMENT. WE HAVE TO PAY FOR IT, AND THEN WE SUBMIT 01:00:23.429 --> 01:00:26.400 THOSE TO THEM AND GET THOSE OUT THERE ON THE NETWORKS. 01:00:26.400 --> 01:00:29.190 HOW MANY OF YOU WOULD LOVE IT IF YOU COULD TURN ON A 01:00:29.190 --> 01:00:33.809 YOUTUBE TV OR SOME OTHER OUTLET, PURE FLEX, AND COME 01:00:33.809 --> 01:00:36.909 ON, GRANDPARENTS, WHERE ARE YOU?

COME ON, 01:01:14.050 --> 01:01:16.780 INTERNET, ALL OF US TOGETHER, LET'S GET IT DONE. 01:01:16.780 --> 01:01:19.329 AMEN, ALL RIGHT, WELL, LET'S PUT OUR OFFERING SCRIPTURE 01:01:19.329 --> 01:01:22.840 UP. ENOUGH OF ALL THAT. SO MANY THINGS GOING ON HERE AT 01:01:22.840 --> 01:01:26.230 THE MINISTRY. OFFERING SCRIPTURE, MALACHI 3:10, AND 01:01:26.230 --> 01:01:29.500 I TALKED ABOUT THIS LAST WEEK. BRINGING ALL THE 01:01:29.500 --> 01:01:33.519 TITHES INTO THE STOREHOUSE THAT THERE MAY BE, WHAT? 01:01:33.519 --> 01:01:37.179 MEAT IN MY HOUSE. NOW, THIS IS WHAT THE LORD JUST 01:01:37.179 --> 01:01:40.059 REMINDED ME OF, THAT WE SHOULD, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF 01:01:40.059 --> 01:01:44.590 US, CHRISTIANS, ALL OF US THAT ARE CHURCHGOERS, WE 01:01:44.590 --> 01:01:47.199 CALL OURSELVES CHURCHGOERS, SHOULD WANT THERE TO BE 01:01:47.199 --> 01:01:50.829 MEAT. A BETTER WAY OF SAYING THAT IS SUBSTANCE IN GOD'S 01:01:50.829 --> 01:01:53.980 HOUSE. NOW, OF COURSE THAT'S FINANCIAL, 'CAUSE THIS IS 01:01:53.980 --> 01:01:57.099 OFFERING TIME, AND SO WE WANT THERE TO BE SUBSTANCE 01:01:57.099 --> 01:02:00.820 IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD, SO THE MINISTRY CAN DO WHAT IT 01:02:00.820 --> 01:02:04.960 DOES. THINGS LIKE OVTV THAT ARE REACHING THE WORLD, AND 01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:07.900 OF COURSE STREAMING, QUALITY STREAMING. IT TAKES A LOT OF 01:02:07.900 --> 01:02:10.809 MONEY TO DO THOSE THINGS, AND THAT'S JUST THAT ONE 01:02:10.809 --> 01:02:14.289 PIECE OF IT. NOTHING HAPPENS FOR FREE, RIGHT? YOU CAN'T 01:02:14.289 --> 01:02:18.039 EVEN HAVE A LANDLINE PHONE WITH A CORD FOR FREE. YOU 01:02:18.039 --> 01:02:20.679 KNOW, WE HAVE TO PAY. YOU PAY FOR YOUR INTERNET IN 01:02:20.679 --> 01:02:24.039 YOUR HOUSE. SO THESE ARE ALL IMPORTANT ELEMENTS. BUT ME 01:02:24.039 --> 01:02:27.429 IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD OR SUBSTANCE IS YES, FINANCIAL, 01:02:27.429 --> 01:02:31.119 BUT IT'S EVERYTHING. THINK ABOUT, YOU ARE ADDING, JUST 01:02:31.119 --> 01:02:34.030 BY BEING HERE TODAY, YOU ARE ADDING, LOOK AROUND YOU, 01:02:34.030 --> 01:02:37.420 LOOK AT A COUPLE PEOPLE, GIVE THEM A GREAT BIG SMILE. 01:02:37.420 --> 01:02:38.860 WHILE YOU'RE LOOKING AT THEM, TELL THEM, "I'M SO 01:02:38.860 --> 01:02:41.949 GLAD YOU CAME THIS MORNING." I'M GLAD YOU'RE IN HERE, 01:02:41.949 --> 01:02:46.780 INTERNET. WE'RE GLAD YOU'RE IN HERE. BUT YOU KNOW, ALL 01:02:46.780 --> 01:02:50.530 THOSE PEOPLE AROUND YOU ARE SUBSTANCE IN GOD'S HOUSE, BY 01:02:50.530 --> 01:02:55.000 ATTENDING, BY SERVING, BY WORSHIPING. THINK ABOUT 01:02:55.000 --> 01:02:57.039 THAT. YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS THINK OF IT LIKE THIS. WE 01:02:57.039 --> 01:02:59.860 WERE WATCHING FOOTBALL YESTERDAY. I LOVE SATURDAY 01:02:59.860 --> 01:03:03.271 GAME DAY. AND PASTOR AND I GET UP AND WE ALWAYS PUT OUT 01:03:03.271 --> 01:03:05.590 OUR FOOTBALL CUPS IN THE MORNING. I MEAN, WE'RE A 01:03:05.590 --> 01:03:08.619 FOOTBALL FAMILY. DID YOU FIGURE THAT OUT ALREADY? AND 01:03:08.619 --> 01:03:10.869 SO ANYWAY, WE GET OUR FOOTBALL CUPS AND WHATEVER 01:03:10.869 --> 01:03:13.510 THE TEAM IS, NEBRASKA WAS ON A BUY WEEK YESTERDAY, SO 01:03:13.510 --> 01:03:16.150 PASTOR'S LIKE, SHOULD WE PUT OUR NEBRASKA CUPS OUT? I GO, 01:03:16.150 --> 01:03:19.719 LET'S JUST, SO THEN WE GOT ONLINE, I'M TELLING YOU, WE, 01:03:19.719 --> 01:03:22.869 GOD HELP US. SO THEN WE GOT ONLINE, YOU KNOW, THAT'S THE 01:03:22.869 --> 01:03:24.579 BAD PART ABOUT THE INTERNET. YOU CAN JUST ABOUT BUY 01:03:24.579 --> 01:03:27.760 ANYTHING YOUR MIND CAN DREAM UP. YOU KNOW, IF WALMART 01:03:27.760 --> 01:03:31.840 DOESN'T HAVE IT, AMAZON WILL. SO THEN WE GET ONLINE 01:03:31.840 --> 01:03:34.030 AND HE SAID, WELL, LET'S JUST FIND SOME, THOSE OF YOU 01:03:34.030 --> 01:03:36.639 THAT DON'T WATCH FOOTBALL WOULDN'T GET THIS, BUT LET'S 01:03:36.639 --> 01:03:40.210 FIND SOME COLLEGE GAME DAY CUPS, LIKE ACTUAL THE 01:03:40.210 --> 01:03:44.019 PROGRAM, ESPN COLLEGE GAME DAY. SO IF NEBRASKA'S ON A 01:03:44.019 --> 01:03:51.369 BYE WEEK, WE HAVE LEGAL CUPS. SO, (LAUGHS) SO THE 01:03:51.369 --> 01:03:54.820 POINT IS, AND OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, I DID ORDER THEM, BUT 01:03:54.820 --> 01:03:59.769 THE POINT IS, IS I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, IT WOULD JUST BE 01:03:59.769 --> 01:04:02.949 NO FUN TO WATCH FOOTBALL IF THE CROWD WASN'T THERE. 01:04:02.949 --> 01:04:05.628 THERE'D BE NO SUBSTANCE IN THE STADIUM. SO HAVE YOU 01:04:05.628 --> 01:04:08.230 THOUGHT ABOUT THAT? YOU KNOW, PART OF WHAT MAKES THE 01:04:08.230 --> 01:04:11.110 GAME IS THE PEOPLE SCREAMING AND YELLING AND WAVING STUFF 01:04:11.110 --> 01:04:13.659 AND ALL OF THIS. NOW CHURCH IS DIFFERENT. I GET IT. IT'S 01:04:13.659 --> 01:04:16.420 NOT LIKE A FOOTBALL GAME, BUT PART OF IT IS WE ADD 01:04:16.420 --> 01:04:20.769 SUBSTANCE IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD. WE NEED MEAT IN 01:04:20.769 --> 01:04:24.039 HIS HOUSE. LOOK AT THE GROUP THAT WAS UP HERE TODAY, 01:04:24.039 --> 01:04:27.579 EVERYBODY PRAYING. IT WAS THE MEAT OF THE HOUSE, THE 01:04:27.579 --> 01:04:32.139 SUBSTANCE OF THE HOUSE THAT MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE. SO 01:04:32.139 --> 01:04:35.980 I JUST WANNA SAY EVERY ONE OF US, ESPECIALLY IN OUR 01:04:35.980 --> 01:04:38.260 FINANCES, OUR TITHES, OUR OFFERINGS, 'CAUSE THE 01:04:38.260 --> 01:04:41.710 CONTEXT IN THE SCRIPTURE WAS TITHES AND OFFERINGS, BUT 01:04:41.710 --> 01:04:45.880 EVERY ONE OF US SHOULD MAKE IT OUR GOAL TO PUT MEAT IN 01:04:45.880 --> 01:04:48.940 THE HOUSE OF THE LORD. I THOUGHT, LORD, IT'S 01:04:48.940 --> 01:04:52.059 DISCOURAGING WHEN YOU SEE, YOU KNOW, MILLIONS OF PEOPLE 01:04:52.059 --> 01:04:55.420 GOING THROUGH DISNEY EVERY YEAR AND THE STUFF THAT THEY 01:04:55.420 --> 01:04:58.239 PROMOTE AND PEOPLE JUST GO THERE AND GO THERE AND GO 01:04:58.239 --> 01:05:00.760 THERE AND GO THERE. AND YET CHURCH IS A LITTLE BIT OF A 01:05:00.760 --> 01:05:02.800 STRUGGLE FOR SOME PEOPLE. AND I THOUGHT, NO, LORD, 01:05:02.800 --> 01:05:05.650 THAT'S CHANGING. LIKE PASTOR DOUG SAID, WE'RE IN A 01:05:05.650 --> 01:05:10.269 REVIVAL AND THERE IS GOING TO BE SUBSTANCE. COME ON, 01:05:10.269 --> 01:05:12.699 I'M BELIEVING FOR THE DAY THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A 01:05:12.699 --> 01:05:15.670 SMALL CHURCH. COME ON, SOMEBODY. EVERY CHURCH OUGHT 01:05:15.670 --> 01:05:20.949 TO BE PACKED, EVERY CHAIR FILLED, SUBSTANCE IN THE 01:05:20.949 --> 01:05:23.500 HOUSE OF THE LORD. YOU HEAR PEOPLE USE THE PHRASE, MAKE 01:05:23.500 --> 01:05:25.989 HEAVEN CROWDED. WELL, I THINK CHURCH OUGHT TO BE 01:05:25.989 --> 01:05:29.289 CROWDED BEFORE WE GET THERE. OKAY, THERE'S NOT A CHAIR, 01:05:29.289 --> 01:05:33.760 AN EXTRA CHAIR FOR YOUR BIBLE. YOUR BIBLE'S GOT TO 01:05:33.760 --> 01:05:37.059 BE ON YOUR LAP BECAUSE WE NEED THAT SEAT FOR SOMEBODY. 01:05:37.059 --> 01:05:40.480 COME ON, SOMEBODY. WE ARE COMING INTO A TIME. THERE IS 01:05:40.480 --> 01:05:44.559 MEAT AND SUBSTANCE INTO THE HOUSE OF THE LORD LIKE WE'VE 01:05:44.559 --> 01:05:47.786 NEVER SEEN BEFORE. PASTORS AREN'T GONNA KNOW WHAT TO 01:05:47.786 --> 01:05:50.110 DO. THEY'LL LOOK OUT THERE AND GO, WHERE'D ALL THESE 01:05:50.110 --> 01:05:53.320 PEOPLE COME FROM? 'CAUSE WE ARE SHIFTING INTO A BRAND 01:05:53.320 --> 01:05:57.519 NEW THING. SO TOUCH YOURSELVES, SAY, LORD, I 01:05:57.519 --> 01:06:03.880 MAKE IT MY GOAL TO BRING MEAT THROUGH MY FINANCES, MY 01:06:03.880 --> 01:06:08.838 GIVING, AND TO BRING SUBSTANCE TO THE HOUSE OF 01:06:08.838 --> 01:06:15.730 THE LORD. SO FATHER, THAT THE HARVEST MAY BE WON. COME 01:06:15.730 --> 01:06:18.190 ON IN JESUS' NAME. DO YOU AGREE WITH THAT? 01:06:18.190 --> 01:06:19.577 (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING) 01:06:19.577 --> 01:06:21.699 ALL RIGHT, LET'S PUT OUR GIVING INFORMATION UP ON THE 01:06:21.699 --> 01:06:24.369 SCREEN.

BUT BROTHER COPELAND, I JUST WANNA HONOR 01:15:02.701 --> 01:15:07.948 HIM BECAUSE I REMEMBER IN 2018 AND '19, HE CALLED ME, 01:15:07.948 --> 01:15:10.890 HE SAID, "I WANT YOU TO COME PRAY WITH ME." HE SAID, "I 01:15:10.890 --> 01:15:13.801 WANT YOU TO GIVE ME TWO DAYS." AND I SAID, "WELL, 01:15:13.801 --> 01:15:15.279 HOW LONG DO YOU WANT TO PRAY?" HE GOES, "OH, WE'RE 01:15:15.279 --> 01:15:17.850 GONNA PRAY LIKE, YOU KNOW, "EIGHT TO 12 HOURS. "WE'RE 01:15:17.850 --> 01:15:20.490 GONNA MEET AND PRAY." AND HE GOES, "AND BRING A WORD FROM 01:15:20.490 --> 01:15:23.280 GOD." LIKE, OKAY, AND I DIDN'T HAVE A WORD. AND 01:15:23.280 --> 01:15:26.371 FINALLY ON THE AIRPLANE, THE LORD SPOKE TO ME AND SAID, 01:15:26.371 --> 01:15:30.301 "THERE'S A PLAGUE COMING. "IT'S A WORLDWIDE PLAGUE." 01:15:30.301 --> 01:15:34.621 AND HE SAID THAT THE DECADE WOULD BE KNOWN AS THE DECADE 01:15:34.621 --> 01:15:36.661 OF DIFFERENCE, ONE THAT WE'RE COMING INTO. AND HE 01:15:36.661 --> 01:15:38.490 SAID IT WOULD START OFF HARSH, BUT THEN WE WOULD 01:15:38.490 --> 01:15:41.341 COME UP INTO REST. AND THEN OF COURSE I HAD PROPHESIED 01:15:41.341 --> 01:15:44.280 THAT IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA AND DIFFERENT OTHER PLACES 01:15:44.280 --> 01:15:47.220 BEFORE ALL OF THAT HAPPENED WITH COVID AND EVERYTHING. 01:15:47.220 --> 01:15:50.490 BUT WHEN I WAS WITH HIM IN 2019, I SAID TO HIM, I SAID, 01:15:50.490 --> 01:15:52.621 "BROTHER COPELAND, "THERE IS COMING A MOMENT IN OUR 01:15:52.621 --> 01:15:56.280 COUNTRY "WHERE YOU'RE GONNA BE ASKED TO DO SOMETHING. 01:15:56.280 --> 01:15:58.411 "YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO LAUNCH SOMETHING "THAT IS GOING TO 01:15:58.411 --> 01:16:03.091 BE A SPARK. "AND IT'S GOING TO BE A SPARK "THAT YOU'RE 01:16:03.091 --> 01:16:07.112 GONNA HAND TO SOMEBODY." AND SO THEN I PROPHESIED TO GENE 01:16:07.112 --> 01:16:09.451 BAILEY. I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING.

"I DON'T KNOW ABOUT 01:21:40.582 --> 01:21:43.431 YOU, BUT PEOPLE CAN CHANGE." AND THEN I WAS LIKE, "OKAY, 01:21:43.431 --> 01:21:50.782 WE GOTTA GET ALONG "WITH THE RUSSIANS, THANK GOD." BUT WE 01:21:50.782 --> 01:21:55.822 WOULD TAKE BARBIE DOLLS. WE'D CUT THEIR HAIR AND 01:21:55.822 --> 01:22:00.520 PRETEND LIKE THEY WERE RUSSIANS. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING) 01:22:00.587 --> 01:22:03.141 AND THERE WOULD BE EXPLOSIONS FROM THE 4TH OF 01:22:03.141 --> 01:22:07.252 JULY FIREWORKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

THAT'S WHY THEY GOT 300 NEW ONES 01:22:17.391 --> 01:22:19.912 EVERY CHRISTMAS, BECAUSE THE OLD ONES WERE BEING USED AS 01:22:19.912 --> 01:22:22.101 RUSSIANS.

WHAT DOES IT 01:22:47.631 --> 01:22:51.412 MEAN? IT LITERALLY MEANS A SHIFT CHANGE. IT MEANS A 01:22:51.412 --> 01:22:56.152 CONVERGENCE BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH. IT LITERALLY ALSO 01:22:56.152 --> 01:23:01.822 MEANS TO DRAW A LINE IN THE SAND. IT LITERALLY MEANS GOD 01:23:01.822 --> 01:23:04.792 IS DIVIDING. YOU MIGHT SAY, "WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, 01:23:04.792 --> 01:23:09.891 WAIT A MINUTE. "GOD IS DIVIDING, PASTOR HANK?" YES, 01:23:09.891 --> 01:23:12.493 I WANT YOU TO GO REAL QUICK, LOOK AT WHAT JESUS SAID IN 01:23:12.493 --> 01:23:15.261 LUKE CHAPTER 12, VERSE 51. AND REALLY WHAT THIS 01:23:15.261 --> 01:23:20.631 DIVISION IS, LIGHT AND DARKNESS, GOOD VERSUS EVIL. 01:23:20.631 --> 01:23:22.822 IT'S ALMOST LIKE A REMAKE OF, HOW MANY OF YOU EVER 01:23:22.822 --> 01:23:25.492 WATCHED THE 10 COMMANDMENTS? WHERE IT'S LIKE, YOU HAD 01:23:25.492 --> 01:23:31.101 GOD'S PEOPLE AND THEN YOU HAD EGYPT, RIGHT? AND GOD'S 01:23:31.101 --> 01:23:35.061 PEOPLE, THERE WAS A FAVOR, THERE WAS A BLESSING, BUT 01:23:35.061 --> 01:23:39.202 PHARAOH AND EGYPT, YOU COULD SEE THAT GOD HIMSELF PUT A 01:23:39.202 --> 01:23:41.511 DIFFERENCE. WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT THAT. NOW, JESUS IS 01:23:41.511 --> 01:23:43.851 SPEAKING. AND THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING RIGHT NOW 01:23:43.851 --> 01:23:48.021 IN YOUR LIVING ROOM, LISTEN TO ME. LOOK AT WHAT JESUS 01:23:48.021 --> 01:23:52.282 SAID, "SUPPOSE YE THAT "I'VE COME TO GIVE PEACE ON THE 01:23:52.282 --> 01:23:56.542 EARTH." NOW, SOME PEOPLE'S PERCEPTION OF JESUS IS THAT 01:23:56.542 --> 01:23:59.662 HE'S ALWAYS THIS LIMP-WRISTED, WEAK-KNEED, 01:23:59.662 --> 01:24:03.981 WHO NEVER HAD A BACKBONE, AND HE WENT TO THE CROSS. 01:24:03.981 --> 01:24:06.771 IT'S AMAZING HIS LIMBS DIDN'T BREAK BECAUSE HE WAS 01:24:06.771 --> 01:24:10.311 THIS FRAIL LITTLE REPRESENTATION OF GOD TO 01:24:10.311 --> 01:24:14.782 HUMANITY. NO, JESUS, I'VE SEEN HIM. HE'S A MAN'S MAN. 01:24:15.801 --> 01:24:20.511 HE REALLY IS. HIS BUILD, HIS PHYSIQUE. IF I HAD A BEARD, 01:24:20.511 --> 01:24:29.692 YOU COULD SEE IT KIND OF. NOW, JESUS, YEAH. SO, OKAY, 01:24:29.692 --> 01:24:33.712 JUST USE YOUR IMAGINATION. BUT JESUS SAID THESE WORDS. 01:24:33.712 --> 01:24:37.101 "SUPPOSE THAT I'VE COME TO GIVE PEACE." THAT'S SOME 01:24:37.101 --> 01:24:40.282 PEOPLE'S PERCEPTION OF JESUS IS THAT HE NEVER DID 01:24:40.282 --> 01:24:45.442 ANYTHING TO RUFFLE ANYONE'S FEATHERS. HE WAS ALL ABOUT 01:24:45.442 --> 01:24:50.032 LOVE, BUT YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE COMMANDS US TO SPEAK 01:24:50.032 --> 01:24:52.341 THE TRUTH IN LOVE. AND DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES 01:24:52.341 --> 01:24:58.792 JESUS WAS VERY, VERY, VERY CONFRONTATIONAL? AND SO HE'S 01:24:58.792 --> 01:25:02.242 SAYING TO HIS DISCIPLES, YOU HAVE A PERCEPTION, JUST LIKE 01:25:02.242 --> 01:25:05.662 PEOPLE DO TODAY, THAT EVERYTHING ABOUT MY KINGDOM, 01:25:05.662 --> 01:25:09.832 EVERYTHING ABOUT MY NATURE IS JUST SKIPPITY-DOO-DA-DAY. 01:25:09.832 --> 01:25:12.351 EVERYTHING IS JUST SO PEACEFUL. I DON'T WANNA 01:25:12.351 --> 01:25:15.202 OFFEND ANYONE. I DON'T WANNA, YOU KNOW, LISTEN, IF 01:25:15.202 --> 01:25:17.872 YOUR PARENTS DON'T LIKE ME, YOU KNOW, BOY, I DON'T WANNA 01:25:17.872 --> 01:25:20.391 COME BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR PARENTS, RIGHT? I DON'T 01:25:20.391 --> 01:25:23.452 WANNA SAY ANYTHING THAT'S GONNA BRING DIVISION, RIGHT? 01:25:23.452 --> 01:25:26.002 I'M GONNA MAKE THE PHARISEES HAPPY. I'M GONNA MAKE THE 01:25:26.002 --> 01:25:29.212 DOCTORS OF THE LAW HAPPY. I'M GONNA MAKE CAIAPHAS 01:25:29.212 --> 01:25:32.902 HAPPY. OH, AND BY THE WAY, I'M REALLY GONNA MAKE HEROD, 01:25:32.902 --> 01:25:36.171 OH, I'M GONNA MAKE SURE THAT I'M AT PEACE AND I'M NOT 01:25:36.171 --> 01:25:39.712 GONNA SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT. NO, THAT'S NOT 01:25:39.712 --> 01:25:44.391 JESUS. HE EVEN SAID IT. YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID? HE SAID, 01:25:44.391 --> 01:25:48.742 YOU GO TELL THAT FOX HEROD, AND HE WASN'T USING FOX 01:25:48.742 --> 01:25:54.171 LIKE, YOU GO TELL THAT SLY PRESIDENT OR POLITICIAN. NO, 01:25:54.171 --> 01:25:59.271 HE USED THE WORD FOX, WHICH MEANT THIS. YOU GO TELL THAT 01:25:59.271 --> 01:26:09.021 IMMORAL, BISEXUAL, YES, ABSOLUTELY PERVERT, THAT'S 01:26:09.021 --> 01:26:13.671 WHAT JESUS WAS SAYING, THAT I AIN'T CHANGING. 01:26:13.671 --> 01:26:19.162 (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING) TODAY, I DO MIRACLES, 01:26:19.162 --> 01:26:25.372 TOMORROW I'M GONNA DO THE SAME. JESUS SAID, "DON'T 01:26:25.372 --> 01:26:29.091 THINK AND GET IN YOUR HEAD "THAT EVERYTHING THAT I'VE 01:26:29.091 --> 01:26:32.421 COME TO DO "IS ALWAYS GONNA BE HAPPITY, SKIPPITY, DOODAH 01:26:32.421 --> 01:26:35.662 DAY." HOW MANY OF YOU, SINCE YOU REALLY, NOW I'M NOT 01:26:35.662 --> 01:26:38.122 SAYING SINCE YOU BECAME A CHRISTIAN, 'CAUSE THERE'S 01:26:38.122 --> 01:26:41.872 PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT HAVE BECOME A CHRISTIAN AND THEY 01:26:41.872 --> 01:26:46.881 AIN'T RUFFLED ANYONE'S FEATHERS. HALF THE TIME 01:26:46.881 --> 01:26:49.582 PEOPLE DON'T EVEN KNOW THEY'RE A CHRISTIAN, RIGHT? 01:26:49.582 --> 01:26:53.122 THEY'RE SUCH A PEACEMAKER, THEY BLEND IN LIKE BOBBY 01:26:53.122 --> 01:27:00.622 BLENDON. AND THERE'S NO SEPARATION. NOBODY CAN TELL 01:27:00.622 --> 01:27:03.652 WHO YOU ARE, WHAT YOU ARE, RIGHT? AS FAR AS YOUR 01:27:03.652 --> 01:27:08.511 CHRISTIANITY. AND JESUS SAID, NO, DON'T THINK THAT 01:27:08.511 --> 01:27:12.078 REALLY WHAT I'M ASKING YOU ALL TO DO HAS TO DO WITH 01:27:12.078 --> 01:27:15.202 JUST EVERYBODY GET ALONG. NOW I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT 01:27:15.202 --> 01:27:17.931 HATE, I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PATHETIC VIOLENCE THAT 01:27:17.931 --> 01:27:21.261 WE'RE SEEING TODAY. BUT HE'S SAYING, LISTEN, IF YOU 01:27:21.261 --> 01:27:26.931 REALLY WANT TO BE A FOLLOWER OF ME, NOT EVERYBODY IS 01:27:26.931 --> 01:27:30.712 GONNA AGREE WITH YOU OR LIKE YOU. SO YOU DON'T CHANGE 01:27:30.712 --> 01:27:33.891 YOUR MESSAGE, YOU DON'T COMPROMISE, YOU DON'T COME 01:27:33.891 --> 01:27:37.042 DOWN TO THEIR LEVEL AND BECOME WOKE AND CHANGE YOUR 01:27:37.042 --> 01:27:41.239 PRONOUNS AND BE APOLOGETIC LIKE THE PREACHERS THAT HAD 01:27:41.239 --> 01:27:44.631 TO GET UP AND TALK ABOUT CHARLIE KIRK. OH, YOU KNOW, 01:27:44.631 --> 01:27:48.171 SOME OF YOU MAY NOT AGREE WITH CHARLIE KIRK. SHUT UP, 01:27:48.171 --> 01:27:52.612 PREACHER! (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING) WE DON'T NEED 01:27:52.612 --> 01:27:58.731 YOU TO GIVE APOLOGETICS. DO YOU HAVE A BACKBONE? IT'S 01:27:58.731 --> 01:28:04.042 TIME THAT YOUR CHURCH GETS DIVIDED WITH TRUTH, 01:28:04.042 --> 01:28:06.532 ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE TO ALWAYS HAVE APOLOGETICS. YOU 01:28:06.532 --> 01:28:08.572 KNOW, I REMEMBER ONE TIME I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT 01:28:08.572 --> 01:28:11.692 WHAT OUR CHURCH IS PREACHING IN OUR CITY AND I WENT OUT 01:28:11.692 --> 01:28:13.612 AND I HEARD ONE PREACHER HE'S NOT EVEN PREACHING 01:28:13.612 --> 01:28:19.069 ANYMORE, BUT HE TEACHES THAT MUCH. AND I THOUGHT, "WELL, 01:28:19.069 --> 01:28:21.921 WHAT'S HIS SERMON?" SO I CLICKED ON "SERMON OF THE 01:28:21.921 --> 01:28:28.792 DAY" AND HE GETS ON, HE'S LIKE, "OH, OH." AND WE 01:28:28.792 --> 01:28:36.231 WONDER WHY TODAY THAT PEOPLE HAVE A MENTALITY OF JESUS 01:28:36.231 --> 01:28:40.042 BEING THIS WEAK VESSEL. BECAUSE A LOT OF THESE GUYS 01:28:40.042 --> 01:28:44.721 GO OFF TO CEMETERY AND THEY LEARN HOMILETICS AND THEY 01:28:44.721 --> 01:28:46.792 ALL COME BACK. I MEAN, NORMALLY THEY TALK LIKE 01:28:46.792 --> 01:28:49.042 THIS, BUT WHEN THEY GET BEHIND THE PULPIT, IT NOW 01:28:49.042 --> 01:28:53.181 HAS TO BECOME LIKE THIS. AND EVERYBODY HAS TO, WE DON'T 01:28:53.181 --> 01:28:56.061 WANT TO OFFEND ANYBODY, AND WE HAVE TO BE VERY NICE TO 01:28:56.061 --> 01:28:59.931 EVERYBODY. TODAY WE'RE HAVING A POTLUCK BLESSING. 01:28:59.931 --> 01:29:04.101 AND WE NEED TO TELL YOU NOW, YOU REALLY, REALLY SHOULD 01:29:04.101 --> 01:29:07.521 THINK ABOUT, NOW THE JACK TALKS NORMALLY LIKE THIS TO 01:29:07.521 --> 01:29:09.622 HIS KIDS, "CLEAR UP YOUR ROOM." BUT WHEN HE GETS 01:29:09.622 --> 01:29:12.563 AROUND THE PULPIT, I'M GOING TO SAY SOMETHING VERY BOLD. 01:29:14.601 --> 01:29:17.152 I MEAN, WOULD YOU WANNA, I WOULD NOT WANNA FOLLOW 01:29:17.152 --> 01:29:20.444 SOMEBODY LIKE THAT. I'D BE LIKE, "DUDE, ARE YOU A MAN? 01:29:21.862 --> 01:29:23.811 DO YOU HAVE ANY KIND OF LEADERSHIP ABOUT YOU?" NO, 01:29:26.692 --> 01:29:29.782 IT TAUGHT THEM TO BE SISSIES. THAT'S WHY THEY 01:29:29.782 --> 01:29:33.673 WERE ALL COWARDS DURING COVID. (CONGREGATION MURMURS) 01:29:33.712 --> 01:29:38.872 WHAT'S MY POINT? (CONGREGATION LAUGHS) OH, SO 01:29:38.872 --> 01:29:40.942 ANYWAY, THANK YOU, HONEY, FOR ACTUALLY LISTENING TO 01:29:40.942 --> 01:29:46.971 ME. SO ANYWAY, I CLICKED ON. HAD TO DO THE VOICE SO YOU'D 01:29:46.971 --> 01:29:50.542 HEAR HOW THEY DID IT. I'M GOING TO SAY SOMETHING THAT 01:29:52.311 --> 01:29:56.782 WILL PROBABLY FRIGHTEN ALL OF YOU. AND AS YOUR PASTOR, 01:29:56.782 --> 01:30:03.351 I WOULD NEVER WANT TO MAKE YOU AFRAID OR OFFEND YOU. SO 01:30:03.351 --> 01:30:06.921 JUST BEAR WITH ME. WHAT I'M GOING TO SHARE IS OUT OF THE 01:30:06.921 --> 01:30:15.532 WORD OF GOD. I'M LIKE, WHAT IS IT, MAN? I'M WAITING FOR 01:30:15.532 --> 01:30:18.742 THIS SCARY THING. I'M GOING TO TALK TODAY ABOUT THE 01:30:18.742 --> 01:30:28.042 SUBJECT OF TITHING. I MEAN, MY WALLY CLEAVER KICKED IN. 01:30:28.042 --> 01:30:33.981 SHE PREACHER. WHAT ARE YOU BEING SO GOOFY FOR? OK, I 01:30:33.981 --> 01:30:38.271 GOT TO MOVE ON. THIS IS NOT EVEN MY MESSAGE. SO SUPPOSE 01:30:38.271 --> 01:30:42.351 THAT I'VE COME TO GIVE PEACE ON EARTH. JESUS SAID, "AH, 01:30:42.351 --> 01:30:49.667 NAY, NAY." EVERYONE GO, "NAY!" RIGHT? 'CAUSE JESUS 01:30:49.667 --> 01:30:51.048 WAS TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY WOULDN'T BE THE HORSES 01:30:51.048 --> 01:30:57.198 BETOOT. "NAY!" I'VE COME TO GIVE, I'M PREACHING IT THE 01:30:57.198 --> 01:31:01.368 WAY I WANT TO PREACH IT, OK? SO, OK. IT'S MY MOM AND 01:31:01.368 --> 01:31:07.608 DAD'S FAULT THEY RAISED ME THIS WAY. BUT RATHER, ALL 01:31:07.608 --> 01:31:10.398 RIGHT. HE SAID, "I DIDN'T COME TO BRING PEACE, BUT 01:31:10.398 --> 01:31:15.828 RATHER I HAVE COME TO BRING DIVISION." HE SAID IT, "I'VE 01:31:15.828 --> 01:31:18.828 COME TO BRING DIVISION." NOW, RIGHT NOW IN THE EARTH, 01:31:18.828 --> 01:31:22.037 THERE ARE FOUR DIVISIONS THAT I THINK ARE HAPPENING. 01:31:22.037 --> 01:31:26.747 NUMBER ONE, WRITE THIS DOWN, THERE IS GENESIS 1:14 GOING 01:31:26.747 --> 01:31:29.537 ON. THIS IS THE BEST WAY I CAN DESCRIBE THIS. IN 01:31:29.537 --> 01:31:32.898 GENESIS 1, VERSE 14, AND THIS IS IN CONTEXT OF 57, 01:31:32.898 --> 01:31:38.417 86, THE JEWISH NEW YEAR, AND ALSO 2026 THAT WE'RE GETTING 01:31:38.417 --> 01:31:42.828 READY. NUMBER ONE DIVISION IS BETWEEN LIGHT AND 01:31:42.828 --> 01:31:47.028 DARKNESS, GOOD AND EVIL. I THINK GOD ON PURPOSE IS 01:31:47.028 --> 01:31:54.198 MAKING IT SO PLAIN. WHO IS ON THE LORD'S SIDE? ARE YOU 01:31:54.198 --> 01:31:57.318 ON THE SIDE OF GOOD? BECAUSE TODAY WE'VE GOT A GENERATION 01:31:57.318 --> 01:32:00.377 WHERE PEOPLE ARE CALLING, THEY'RE SO JACKED UP, 01:32:00.377 --> 01:32:02.988 THEY'RE CALLING EVIL GOOD. AND THEN IF ANYBODY DOES 01:32:02.988 --> 01:32:06.557 ANYTHING GOOD, THEY'RE CALLING THAT EVIL. AND IN 01:32:06.557 --> 01:32:08.988 GENESIS 1, GOD SAID, "LET THERE BE LIGHTS IN THE 01:32:08.988 --> 01:32:10.938 FIRMAMENT." NOW, HOW MANY KNOW YOU'RE THE LIGHTS NOW 01:32:10.938 --> 01:32:15.287 IN THE FIRMAMENT? YOU'RE THE LIGHTS THAT REPRESENT THE 01:32:15.287 --> 01:32:18.377 KINGDOM OF GOD. YOU REPRESENT HEAVEN. AND NOTICE 01:32:18.377 --> 01:32:21.528 IT SAID, "TO DIVIDE THE DAY FROM NIGHT." IN OTHER WORDS, 01:32:21.528 --> 01:32:24.228 RATHER THAN THE CHURCH BECOMING SUBCULTURAL IN THE 01:32:24.228 --> 01:32:26.988 CULTURE, RIGHT? WHATEVER THE CULTURE SAYS, HOWEVER THE 01:32:26.988 --> 01:32:29.747 CULTURE ACTS, WHATEVER THE CULTURE WANTS, WHATEVER THE 01:32:29.747 --> 01:32:33.797 CULTURE PUSHES IN ITS COMPROMISE, IN ITS WOKE, 01:32:33.797 --> 01:32:37.068 RIGHT? MANY CHURCHES WOULD JUST BECOME SUBCULTURAL. AND 01:32:37.068 --> 01:32:39.318 GOD SAYS, "WAIT A MINUTE, YOU'RE LIKE THE FIRMAMENT. 01:32:39.318 --> 01:32:43.757 "YOU'RE LIKE THE LIGHTS. "YOU ARE BORN FROM ABOVE, 01:32:43.757 --> 01:32:47.207 AND YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD, "AND YOU ARE NOT 01:32:47.207 --> 01:32:51.018 SUPPOSED TO BLEND IN "AND PUT YOUR LIGHT UNDERNEATH 01:32:51.018 --> 01:32:55.457 THE BUSHEL. "YOU ARE TO BE ACTUALLY PART OF THE 01:32:55.457 --> 01:32:59.387 DIVISION." NOW I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT BEING RUDE, 01:32:59.387 --> 01:33:04.578 OBNOXIOUS, MEAN-SPIRITED. YOUR STANDARD, RIGHT, YOUR 01:33:04.578 --> 01:33:09.677 MORAL STANDARD, YOUR STAND FOR GOD, HOW YOU WALK AS A 01:33:09.677 --> 01:33:13.847 CHRISTIAN, HOW YOU ACT AS A CHRISTIAN, YOUR BELIEF 01:33:13.847 --> 01:33:17.148 SYSTEM, ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD, IS GOING TO 01:33:17.148 --> 01:33:22.368 BRING DIVISION. BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY IS GOING TO LIKE 01:33:22.368 --> 01:33:25.457 YOU OR AGREE WITH YOU IF YOU GO THE GOD FACTOR WAY. 01:33:25.457 --> 01:33:29.927 THAT'S WHY JESUS SAID, "NAY, I SAID TO YOU, "IF YOU 01:33:29.927 --> 01:33:32.478 REALLY STAND FOR ME IN THIS DAY." LISTEN, I'VE HAD 01:33:32.478 --> 01:33:37.368 PEOPLE SAY TO ME, "PASTOR, YOU'RE JUST TOO 01:33:37.368 --> 01:33:41.597 NARROW-MINDED. I CAN'T GO TO YOUR CHURCH." I'M LIKE, 01:33:41.597 --> 01:33:44.778 "REALLY? WELL, THERE'S THE DOOR THEN." BUT I'M SUPPOSED 01:33:44.778 --> 01:33:49.307 TO BE NARROW-MINDED. JESUS TAUGHT A WHOLE PRINCIPLE IN 01:33:49.307 --> 01:33:56.957 MATTHEW 7. NARROW IS THE WAY THAT LEADS TO LIFE. WIDE IS 01:33:56.957 --> 01:34:00.738 THE WAY THAT THINKS OPEN BORDERS AND GIVING PEOPLE 01:34:00.738 --> 01:34:03.287 MORE RIGHTS WHO COME ILLEGALLY OVER YOUR BORDER 01:34:03.287 --> 01:34:07.188 THAN YOUR OWN CITIZENS. THAT'S A WIDE ROAD. I'M 01:34:07.188 --> 01:34:11.073 SUPPOSED TO BE NARROW-MINDED. 'CAUSE I'M ON 01:34:11.073 --> 01:34:15.529 THE NARROW ROAD. WELL, I THINK, AND I'VE HAD THIS 01:34:15.529 --> 01:34:23.358 SAID TO, PASTOR, I THINK THAT YOU ARE TOO RADICAL FOR 01:34:23.358 --> 01:34:32.028 JESUS, ESPECIALLY IN TODAY'S CULTURE. SO WHAT YOU JUST 01:34:32.028 --> 01:34:37.247 TOLD ME IS THAT YOU ARE PART OF THE FIRMAMENT OF HEAVEN 01:34:38.747 --> 01:34:44.177 AND YOU ARE HIDING YOUR LIGHT. JESUS SAID, WAIT A 01:34:44.177 --> 01:34:48.467 MINUTE, I'VE COME TO DIVIDE AND YOUR LIGHT OUGHT TO 01:34:48.467 --> 01:34:52.037 DIVIDE. GET OUT AT THE, LIKE PASTOR BRENDA OFTEN SAYS, 01:34:52.037 --> 01:34:54.978 WHEN SHE WOULD GO TO, WHEN SHE WAS AT WORK AND SHE 01:34:54.978 --> 01:34:56.988 WORKED IN A BANK, SHE WOULD GO INTO THE BREAK ROOM AND 01:34:56.988 --> 01:34:59.747 BRING HER BIBLE AND EVERYBODY WOULD CLEAR OUT 01:34:59.747 --> 01:35:03.377 LIKE COCKROACHES. (CONGREGATION LAUGHING) 01:35:03.377 --> 01:35:08.898 RIGHT, IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THAT WAY. PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW 01:35:08.898 --> 01:35:12.137 THAT YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN, THAT THEY THINK TWICE ABOUT 01:35:12.137 --> 01:35:15.257 ASKING YOU TO GO OUT AND DANCE TO THE COUNTRY MUSIC 01:35:15.257 --> 01:35:24.587 SONG AND DO THE LINE DANCE. NO, YOU SHOULD GO UP TO 01:35:24.587 --> 01:35:26.658 CHURCH WHEN PASTOR BRENDA'S UP HERE DOING PRAISE AND 01:35:26.658 --> 01:35:32.118 WORSHIP AND THEY DO THAT. HAS YOUR LIGHT AND YOUR LIFE 01:35:32.118 --> 01:35:35.688 CREATED ENOUGH DIVISION WHERE PEOPLE SEPARATE 01:35:35.688 --> 01:35:37.876 THEMSELVES, NOT WHERE THEY DON'T WANNA TALK TO YOU OR 01:35:37.876 --> 01:35:41.087 YOU'RE MEAN-SPIRITED, BUT YOU HAVE SUCH A STANDARD. 01:35:41.087 --> 01:35:45.707 THEY KNOW WHERE YOU STAND. YOU KNOW WHAT, I PUT DONALD 01:35:45.707 --> 01:35:50.597 TRUMP HAIR THING WITH THE RED DOT IN MY YARD, AND I 01:35:50.597 --> 01:35:55.007 HAD NEIGHBORS THAT TALKED TO ME PRE-TOMATO-HEAD DONALD 01:35:55.007 --> 01:36:00.707 TRUMP SIGN. AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN MY YARD, THEY DON'T 01:36:00.707 --> 01:36:07.127 TALK TO ME NO MORE, 'CAUSE THEY KNOW WHERE I STAND. WE 01:36:07.127 --> 01:36:13.488 GOTTA BE THAT WAY ABOUT GOD. I AIN'T CHANGING. I'M A 01:36:13.488 --> 01:36:18.137 LIGHT. I'M PART OF THE FIRMAMENT OF HEAVEN. AND I'M 01:36:18.137 --> 01:36:22.818 NOT ASHAMED. AND I'M NOT GONNA BE TOLD THAT I'M A 01:36:22.818 --> 01:36:25.698 BIGOT AND FULL OF HATE BECAUSE I SPEAK TRUTH IN 01:36:25.698 --> 01:36:32.448 LOVE. THAT I SUPPORT GOD'S WAY OF DOING THINGS. ANYWAY, 01:36:32.448 --> 01:36:36.408 OKAY, THIS IS ONLY MY FIRST POINT, OKAY. THE SECOND 01:36:36.408 --> 01:36:39.707 DIVISION IS GOD IS DIVIDING HIMSELF FROM THE ENEMY. YOU 01:36:39.707 --> 01:36:43.127 KNOW ONE THING THAT IF I WAS GOD, I DON'T KNOW HOW HE CAN 01:36:43.127 --> 01:36:46.818 KEEP HIMSELF HAPPY. BUT YOU KNOW, A TORNADO OR A 01:36:46.818 --> 01:36:50.323 HURRICANE HAPPENS, AND PEOPLE AUTOMATICALLY SAY, 01:36:50.323 --> 01:36:53.988 OH, THAT WAS AN ACT OF GOD. AND SOMEWHERE WE ALWAYS 01:36:53.988 --> 01:36:56.717 FORGET, YOU KNOW, WE ALWAYS THINK THAT THERE'S SOME KIND 01:36:56.717 --> 01:37:00.587 OF SPIRITUAL ENTITY WHEN IT COMES TO A DESTRUCTIVE ACT. 01:37:00.587 --> 01:37:04.938 IT MUST HAVE BEEN GOD. GOD TOOK THAT PERSON OUT. BUT 01:37:04.938 --> 01:37:07.938 BOY, NOBODY EVER SAYS THE DEVIL. THEY'RE HALF AFRAID 01:37:07.938 --> 01:37:14.087 TO SAY THE COWARD'S NAME. NO, THE DEVIL DID IT. THE 01:37:14.087 --> 01:37:18.167 DEVIL'S DOING THIS. SO GOD, IN THE SECOND DIVISION 01:37:18.167 --> 01:37:20.177 THAT'S HAPPENING, THE FIRST ONE IS HE'S TRYING TO GET 01:37:20.177 --> 01:37:24.557 HIS CHURCH TO BE THE LIGHT, RIGHT, THAT'S GONNA CREATE A 01:37:24.557 --> 01:37:27.587 STANDARD. THAT'S WHY PEOPLE CAME TO THE MEMORIAL SERVICE 01:37:27.587 --> 01:37:30.137 AT CHARLIE KIRK'S LAST SUNDAY. THEY'RE COMING TO 01:37:30.137 --> 01:37:33.557 THE LIGHT, THEY'RE COMING TO THE STANDARD. THE SECOND ONE 01:37:33.557 --> 01:37:36.858 IS GOD IS SEPARATING HIMSELF FROM THE DEVIL. WELL, I 01:37:36.858 --> 01:37:41.868 DON'T BELIEVE THAT, NO. NO, GOD HAS NO FEELINGS FOR THE 01:37:41.868 --> 01:37:47.837 DEVIL EXCEPT DISREGARD. JOHN CHAPTER 10, JESUS PUT A 01:37:47.837 --> 01:37:50.747 DIFFERENCE. HE SAID, "HEY, THE DEVIL IS THE THIEF, "AND 01:37:50.747 --> 01:37:54.018 HE COMES TO STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY." NOW I'M GONNA SHOW 01:37:54.018 --> 01:37:57.978 YOU THE DIVISION. "BUT I, YOUR LORD, HAS COME TO GIVE 01:37:57.978 --> 01:38:00.828 YOU LIFE "AND LIFE ABUNDANTLY." SO JESUS AND 01:38:00.828 --> 01:38:04.457 JOHN 10, 10, HE GAVE A DIVIDING LINE AND A DIVISION 01:38:04.457 --> 01:38:08.478 BETWEEN HIM AND THE DEVIL. NOW LOOK AT EXODUS 8, LOOK 01:38:08.478 --> 01:38:11.898 AT VERSE 18. "AND WHEN THE MAGICIANS DID SO WITH THEIR 01:38:11.898 --> 01:38:16.278 ENCHANTMENTS "TO BRING FORTH LICE, THEY COULD NOT." NOW, 01:38:16.278 --> 01:38:20.268 THIS IS IMPORTANT, BECAUSE SOMETIMES, I HEAR PEOPLE 01:38:20.268 --> 01:38:23.057 ALWAYS TALK ABOUT WHAT THE DEVIL'S DOING. I EVEN HEAR 01:38:23.057 --> 01:38:25.877 IT IN THE EARTH. WELL, YOU KNOW, THE DEVIL'S DOING THIS 01:38:25.877 --> 01:38:28.847 AND THE DEVIL'S DOING THAT, OR THEY DON'T ACKNOWLEDGE 01:38:28.847 --> 01:38:30.587 THE DEVIL. OH, THIS IS HAPPENING, THIS IS 01:38:30.587 --> 01:38:33.018 HAPPENING. AND THEY ALL THINK IT IS ESCHATOLOGY 01:38:33.018 --> 01:38:38.028 RATHER THAN A DEVIL ON THE LOOSE, RIGHT? IT'S ALL END 01:38:38.028 --> 01:38:42.497 TIME STUFF, YEAH, CALLED END TIME DEVIL. STIRRING UP 01:38:42.497 --> 01:38:46.818 STUFF. AND I'VE HEARD PEOPLE LITERALLY THINK SOMEHOW THAT 01:38:46.818 --> 01:38:51.018 GOD AND THE DEVIL ARE SOMEHOW EQUAL IN POWER. NO, 01:38:51.018 --> 01:38:57.618 DON'T YOU EVER FORGET BIG GOD, LITTLE DEVIL. BIG GOD, 01:38:57.618 --> 01:39:04.488 LITTLE DEVIL. GOD AND THE DEVIL ARE NOT EQUAL. AND 01:39:04.488 --> 01:39:08.807 GOD'S GONNA SHOW YOU THAT. AND SO THE LORD ALLOWED THE 01:39:08.807 --> 01:39:13.278 FIRST TWO PLAGUES OF EGYPT TO ALLOW THE DEVIL AND THE 01:39:13.278 --> 01:39:17.837 MAGICIANS TO THINK THAT THEY WERE EQUAL WITH GOD, RIGHT? 01:39:17.837 --> 01:39:20.478 BECAUSE LOOK HERE AT EXODUS 8 AGAIN, AND THE MAGICIANS 01:39:20.478 --> 01:39:23.717 DID SO. NO, NO, IT LOOKS LIKE THE LIBERAL MEDIA'S ON 01:39:23.717 --> 01:39:27.707 THE SAME LEVEL OF WHAT GOD'S DOING. IT LOOKS LIKE ALL OF 01:39:27.707 --> 01:39:31.698 THESE PEOPLE THAT MADE UP RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, 01:39:31.698 --> 01:39:36.618 RIGHT? FAKE DOXIE, EH? I TRIED TO TELL YOU THAT THAT 01:39:36.618 --> 01:39:41.177 DUDE WON IN 2020. THE GUY WHO LISTENS MORE INTENTLY 01:39:41.177 --> 01:39:53.537 WITH HIS EYES THAN ANYBODY. YEAH, MM-HMM, RIGHT. BUT 01:39:53.537 --> 01:39:58.158 THEY COULD NOT, THEY COULD NOT. THERE CAME A SHIFT. 01:39:58.158 --> 01:40:00.497 IT'S WHAT YOU'RE SEEING TODAY, WHERE WE'RE SEEING 01:40:00.497 --> 01:40:07.068 ALL KINDS OF ABSOLUTE CALLING OUT AND EXPOSING OF 01:40:07.068 --> 01:40:10.518 THE THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN SHOVED AT PEOPLE'S FACE. 01:40:12.467 --> 01:40:16.847 LIES AFTER LIES, CENSORSHIP AFTER CENSORSHIP. GOD ON 01:40:16.847 --> 01:40:19.518 PURPOSE IS BRINGING A DIVISION AND SAYING, "LOOK, 01:40:19.518 --> 01:40:22.398 I WANT TO SHOW YOU THE DIFFERENCE. "I WANNA SHOW 01:40:22.398 --> 01:40:26.148 YOU A DIVIDING LINE. I WANNA SHOW YOU WHAT THE DEVIL DID 01:40:26.148 --> 01:40:29.717 AND HAD A CERTAIN LEGAL RIGHT TO DO BECAUSE THE 01:40:29.717 --> 01:40:32.988 CHURCH WAS DIVIDED AND ASLEEP. NOW I'M SHOWING YOU 01:40:32.988 --> 01:40:35.957 WHAT I'M DOING. I AM A GOD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE 01:40:35.957 --> 01:40:38.268 AND I'M DRAWING A DIVIDING LINE." NOW NOTICE WHAT 01:40:38.268 --> 01:40:42.137 HAPPENS, EXODUS 8, VERSE 23. "I WILL PUT A DIVISION 01:40:42.137 --> 01:40:47.417 BETWEEN MY PEOPLE AND THY PEOPLE. TOMORROW THIS WILL 01:40:47.417 --> 01:40:50.927 BE A SIGN." NOW GO BACK UP TO VERSE 18. IT SAYS, "THE 01:40:50.927 --> 01:40:53.493 MAGICIANS DID SO WITH THEIR ENCHANTMENTS "TO BRING FORTH 01:40:53.493 --> 01:40:57.243 LICE, BUT THEY COULD NOT. "SO THERE WERE LICE UPON MAN 01:40:57.243 --> 01:41:00.484 AND UPON BEASTS. "THEN THE MAGICIAN SAID UNTO PHARAOH, 01:41:00.484 --> 01:41:05.012 "WE CAN'T TOUCH THIS. "THIS HAS BECOME THE FINGER OF 01:41:05.012 --> 01:41:07.774 GOD." AND I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW, PART OF THIS 01:41:07.774 --> 01:41:11.162 DIVIDING LINE, HOW MANY REMEMBER WHEN JESUS DREW A 01:41:11.162 --> 01:41:14.643 LINE IN THE SAND? REMEMBER THE WOMAN THAT WAS CAUGHT IN 01:41:14.643 --> 01:41:18.872 THE MIDST OF ADULTERY AND THEY BROUGHT HER TO JESUS, 01:41:18.872 --> 01:41:21.932 CAUGHT IN THE VERY ACT. AND JESUS DOESN'T EVEN SAY A 01:41:21.932 --> 01:41:26.582 WORD. HE JUST KNEELS DOWN AND HE WRITES IN THE SAND. 01:41:27.722 --> 01:41:29.561 AND EVERYONE DROPPED THEIR STONE AND SAID, SEE YOU 01:41:29.561 --> 01:41:36.783 DUDE. 'CAUSE GOD DIVIDES. HE ESTABLISHES A STANDARD. AND 01:41:36.783 --> 01:41:38.434 THEN HE LOOKED AT THE WOMAN, HE SAID, NOW I'M GONNA TELL 01:41:38.434 --> 01:41:41.912 YOU SOMETHING, DON'T YOU DO THIS AGAIN. SIN NO MORE. BUT 01:41:41.912 --> 01:41:44.735 HE WAS THE ONE IN THE SAND. PEOPLE SAY, WELL, WHAT WAS 01:41:44.735 --> 01:41:47.342 HE WRITING IN THE SAND? I THINK HE WAS ESTABLISHING A 01:41:47.342 --> 01:41:51.842 STANDARD. HE WAS BRINGING A DIVIDE. ARE YOU ON THE 01:41:51.842 --> 01:41:54.603 LORD'S SIDE? AND THIS IS WHAT I EXPECT. IT'S EASY FOR 01:41:54.603 --> 01:41:56.853 YOU TO CALL OUT OTHER PEOPLE, BUT I'M POINTING MY 01:41:56.853 --> 01:42:00.182 FINGER AT YOU NOW. AND SO WE DON'T WANNA BE ON THE SIDE 01:42:00.182 --> 01:42:03.783 OF GOD RIGHT NOW IN THIS TIME WHERE WE AREN'T DOING 01:42:03.783 --> 01:42:06.722 WHAT WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING, RIGHT? NUMBER THREE, 01:42:06.722 --> 01:42:10.384 WHAT'S THE OTHER DIVISION? GOD IS DIVIDING. ARE YOU 01:42:10.384 --> 01:42:14.985 BENDING TOWARDS EVIL, TOWARDS WRONG, OR DO YOU 01:42:14.985 --> 01:42:17.286 HAVE A BACKBONE? LOOK AT ACTS 2, VERSE 40, I SHARED 01:42:17.286 --> 01:42:23.313 THIS AT OTH. IT SAYS, "SAVE YOURSELF FROM THIS UNTOWARD 01:42:23.313 --> 01:42:26.162 GENERATION." NOW THAT'S WHERE YOU GET THE, IN THE 01:42:26.162 --> 01:42:28.563 GREEK, IT'S WHERE YOU GET THE WORD SCOLIOSIS, RIGHT? 01:42:28.563 --> 01:42:29.944 THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, IT'S LIKE 01:42:29.944 --> 01:42:33.063 CURVATURE OF THE SPINE. AND THERE'S A DIVIDING GOING ON 01:42:33.063 --> 01:42:37.384 IN 57, 86, 20, 26, WHERE GOD IS SAYING, "LISTEN, I AM 01:42:37.384 --> 01:42:40.143 DIVIDING, "AND I AM LOOKING, WHAT ARE YOU BENDING 01:42:40.143 --> 01:42:43.654 TOWARDS? "ARE YOU BENDING TOWARDS COMPROMISE? "ARE YOU 01:42:43.654 --> 01:42:46.353 BENDING TOWARDS JUST CAVING IN AND GIVING IN?" I MEAN, 01:42:46.353 --> 01:42:48.872 THERE WAS A DAY THAT YOU WOULD SPEAK BOLDLY AND SAY, 01:42:48.872 --> 01:42:52.024 "NO, THE TRUE EXAMPLE OF MARRIAGE "IS ACCORDING TO 01:42:52.024 --> 01:42:55.412 WHAT GOD SAID AND WHAT JESUS QUOTED, "AND THAT IS BETWEEN 01:42:55.412 --> 01:43:00.092 ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN." THAT IS TRUE MARRIAGE, ACCORDING 01:43:00.092 --> 01:43:04.984 TO GOD. OR DO WE JUST BEND? WELL, I SUPPOSE IF, YOU 01:43:04.984 --> 01:43:08.643 KNOW, TWO PEOPLE LOVE EACH OTHER, YOU KNOW, RIGHT, AND 01:43:08.643 --> 01:43:13.837 IF HE LOVES HIS DOG, MARRY HIS DOG AND, YOU KNOW, IF HE 01:43:13.837 --> 01:43:16.412 LIKES HIS CAT TOO, THEN WE CAN MARRY BOTH THE DOG AND 01:43:16.412 --> 01:43:18.003 THE CAT WITH HIM AND THEN, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN HAVE A 01:43:18.003 --> 01:43:22.622 MARRIAGE. RIGHT? WE'RE JUST GONNA GO ALONG WITH THINGS? 01:43:22.622 --> 01:43:26.673 ARE YOU BENDING AND BECOMING TWISTED AND PERVERSE? ONE OF 01:43:26.673 --> 01:43:30.154 THE TRANSLATIONS THERE IN THE UNTOLD WORD IS CROOKED, 01:43:30.154 --> 01:43:34.682 PERVERSE. ARE WE BENDING? I MEAN, I KNOW PEOPLE TODAY 01:43:34.682 --> 01:43:40.052 THAT ARE SO AFRAID TO MAKE SOMEBODY DISAGREE WITH THEM. 01:43:40.052 --> 01:43:42.574 NOW, I'M NOT SAYING BE RUDE ABOUT IT, BUT I KNOW PEOPLE 01:43:42.574 --> 01:43:44.404 THAT WON'T EVEN BRING UP SUBJECTS. I MEAN, I MEET 01:43:44.404 --> 01:43:47.283 PEOPLE ALL THE TIME, AND THEY SAY, "SO, HEY, I'VE 01:43:47.283 --> 01:43:50.253 SEEN YOU ON TV." OKAY, THAT'S GREAT, AND SHAKE 01:43:50.253 --> 01:43:52.503 THEIR HAND. AH, AND THEN THEY HAVE TO GIVE ME THEIR 01:43:52.503 --> 01:43:56.823 APOLOGETIC. ONE THING I ALWAYS MAKE MY RULE, I DON'T 01:43:56.823 --> 01:44:00.634 TALK ABOUT RELIGION OR POLITICS. AND YOU KNOW WHAT 01:44:00.634 --> 01:44:02.972 I SAY TO THEM ANYMORE? I SAY, "WELL, YOU'RE THE 01:44:02.972 --> 01:44:06.543 PROBLEM "AND WHY WE HAD PROBLEMS IN AMERICA. "THANK 01:44:06.543 --> 01:44:09.748 YOU FOR YOUR TIME." AND THEN THEY'RE LIKE, "OH, BUT, BUT, 01:44:09.783 --> 01:44:14.613 BUT, BUT, BUT, "OH, OH, OH, OH, OH, OH." I DON'T CARE 01:44:14.613 --> 01:44:18.063 ANYMORE. DON'T COME TO ME AND SAY NONSENSE STUFF LIKE 01:44:18.063 --> 01:44:23.673 THAT. I'M NICE, BUT I'M TRUTHFUL. AND I SPEAK THE 01:44:23.673 --> 01:44:30.783 TRUTH IN LOVE. RIGHT? I DON'T COWER. SO ARE YOU 01:44:30.783 --> 01:44:34.563 BENDING OR ARE YOU STANDING? HERE'S THE FOURTH ONE. HOW 01:44:34.563 --> 01:44:38.342 ARE YOU LIVING? THE FOURTH ONE IS JESUS BETWEEN TWO 01:44:38.342 --> 01:44:44.524 THIEVES. ONE OF THEM WAS SO BENT ON THEIR LIFE THAT THEY 01:44:44.524 --> 01:44:48.573 SAT THERE, THE ROBBER, AND CRITICIZED AND RAILED ON 01:44:48.573 --> 01:44:52.024 JESUS. RATHER THAN YOU WOULD THINK AFTER ALL THAT HE DID, 01:44:52.024 --> 01:44:54.662 'CAUSE HISTORY WILL TELL YOU THAT OTHER ROBBER, BOTH 01:44:54.662 --> 01:44:57.092 ROBBERS, MAN, THEY WERE REALLY BAD, INCLUDING 01:44:57.092 --> 01:45:01.296 BARABBAS. THESE GUYS HAD DONE A LOT OF WRONG. YOU 01:45:01.296 --> 01:45:05.162 WOULD HAVE THOUGHT IN HIS MOMENT OF HIS LAST BREATH OR 01:45:05.162 --> 01:45:10.082 BREATHS THAT HE WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN SMART. BUT 01:45:10.082 --> 01:45:16.444 THAT GUY'S IN HELL. BECAUSE HE'S LIVING HIS LIFE, STILL 01:45:16.444 --> 01:45:22.384 TRYING TO SUPPORT HIS WAY OF LIVING. AND QUESTIONING 01:45:22.384 --> 01:45:26.493 EVERYTHING ELSE. THAT'S WHAT SOME PEOPLE, LIKE THE 01:45:26.493 --> 01:45:29.461 OBVIOUS IS STARING HIM IN THE FACE, RIGHT? AND WHAT DO 01:45:29.461 --> 01:45:34.682 THEY CHOOSE TO DO? STILL BE BENT ON EVIL, BENT ON 01:45:34.682 --> 01:45:37.353 COMPROMISE. BUT THE ONE GUY SAID, "NO, I WANNA LIVE FOR 01:45:37.353 --> 01:45:40.412 YOU, JESUS. "REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU COME INTO 01:45:40.412 --> 01:45:42.033 PARADISE." AND HERE'S WHAT I WANNA ENCOURAGE YOU. IF 01:45:42.033 --> 01:45:45.154 WE'VE LEARNED ANYTHING, WE'VE LEARNED THAT WE ARE IN 01:45:45.154 --> 01:45:50.582 A VERY EVIL DAY. WE'RE IN A DAY WHERE IT'S TIME FOR TRUE 01:45:50.582 --> 01:45:55.953 CHRISTIANS TO BE JUST THAT. IT'S TIME FOR CHRISTIANS TO 01:45:55.953 --> 01:46:00.662 REALLY LIVE IT. YOU GOTTA MAKE IT AS, WHAT IS MY 01:46:00.662 --> 01:46:04.113 CHRISTIANITY? WHAT IS THE MEASURE OF MY CHRISTIANITY? 01:46:04.113 --> 01:46:09.543 AM I REALLY A STRONG, CONSISTENT, ON FIRE, 01:46:09.543 --> 01:46:15.521 PASSIONATE? AND YEAH, RADICAL CHRISTIAN. OKAY, 01:46:15.521 --> 01:46:17.524 SOME PEOPLE COULD LOOK AT ME IN MY FOOTBALL HOBBY AND 01:46:17.524 --> 01:46:19.832 SAY, WELL, YOU'RE A RADICAL FOOTBALL GUY. YEAH, I AM, 01:46:19.832 --> 01:46:23.073 BUT I'M MORE RADICAL FOR GOD. WOW, YOU'RE A RADICAL 01:46:23.073 --> 01:46:26.762 TRAIN HOBBYIST. YES, I AM. I'M VERY COMMITTED. I'VE 01:46:26.762 --> 01:46:28.503 BEEN DOING IT FOR 40 YEARS, AND I'M VERY PASSIONATE 01:46:28.503 --> 01:46:30.813 ABOUT IT, BUT I'M MORE COMMITTED ABOUT GOD. BUT 01:46:30.813 --> 01:46:33.813 THERE'S SOME PEOPLE WHERE IT'S LIKE, ARE YOU REALLY 01:46:33.813 --> 01:46:39.423 THAT RADICAL? RADICAL CHRISTIANITY IS YOU ARE BOLD 01:46:39.423 --> 01:46:42.814 ABOUT YOUR FAITH. YOU'RE NOT ASHAMED ABOUT YOUR FAITH. 01:46:44.253 --> 01:46:47.944 YOU'RE BOLD ABOUT COMING TO CHURCH OR EVEN ONLINE, YOU 01:46:47.944 --> 01:46:51.783 KNOW, MAKING GOD A PRIORITY, COMING TOGETHER AS THE BODY 01:46:51.783 --> 01:46:55.713 OF CHRIST A PRIORITY. YOU READ YOUR BIBLE, YOU PRAY, 01:46:55.713 --> 01:47:00.122 YOU TRY VERY HARD TO HAVE YOUR LIFE SHAPED ACCORDING 01:47:00.122 --> 01:47:04.953 TO WHAT IS CALLED THE FRUIT OF GOD'S SPIRIT. LOVE, JOY, 01:47:04.953 --> 01:47:09.332 PEACE, PATIENCE, GOODNESS, MERCY, GENTLENESS, 01:47:09.332 --> 01:47:13.353 SELF-CONTROL. A TRUE RADICAL CHRISTIAN IS ONE WHO SAYS, 01:47:13.353 --> 01:47:15.932 YOU KNOW WHAT, I WANT TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT. I MAY NOT BE 01:47:15.932 --> 01:47:19.533 PERFECT, BUT I'M GONNA STRIVE EVERY DAY TO DO WHAT 01:47:19.533 --> 01:47:22.863 IS RIGHTEOUS AND HONORABLE IN THE SIGHT OF GOD. AND HOW 01:47:22.863 --> 01:47:26.342 ABOUT THIS, IN MY OWN SIGHT AND THE SIGHT OF OTHERS. 01:47:26.342 --> 01:47:28.953 THAT'S WHAT IT REALLY MEANS. SO YOU GOTTA MAKE A DECISION 01:47:28.953 --> 01:47:30.842 WITH THESE DIVISIONS. NOW I WANNA SHOW YOU SOMETHING. I 01:47:32.313 --> 01:47:35.734 WANT YOU TO GO TO MATTHEW 22, AND I WANT YOU TO SEE, 01:47:35.734 --> 01:47:39.243 WE TALKED ABOUT THIS LAST WEEK AS I JUST WANNA SHARE 01:47:39.243 --> 01:47:43.024 JUST A COUPLE THINGS. AND I NOTICED WHEN I WAS LOOKING 01:47:43.024 --> 01:47:45.421 AT THIS AND THEN THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, THAT THERE 01:47:45.421 --> 01:47:48.573 WERE TWO WORDS THAT STUCK OUT TO ME THAT I FEEL LIKE 01:47:48.573 --> 01:47:51.393 ARE VERY, VERY IMPORTANT IF WE'RE GONNA SHIFT AND WE'RE 01:47:51.393 --> 01:47:55.143 GONNA CHANGE TOWARDS WHAT GOD IS DOING. HE'S DRAWING A 01:47:55.143 --> 01:47:58.953 LINE IN THE SAND, AND HE'S SAYING, "WHO IS ON MY SIDE?" 01:47:58.953 --> 01:48:01.234 AND WE HAVE A CHOICE TODAY. WHAT KIND OF CHRISTIAN ARE 01:48:01.234 --> 01:48:03.993 WE GONNA BE? WHAT KIND OF BELIEVER ARE WE GONNA BE? 01:48:03.993 --> 01:48:07.774 HOW ARE WE GONNA LIVE IN THE MIDST OF A CROOKED, 01:48:07.774 --> 01:48:09.993 PERVERSE, AND DARK GENERATION? WE'RE GONNA 01:48:09.993 --> 01:48:12.872 BLEND IN? ARE WE GONNA STEP OVER THE LINE AND GET OVER 01:48:12.872 --> 01:48:16.082 ON THE LINE OF COMPROMISE? OR ARE WE GONNA STAY STRONG 01:48:16.082 --> 01:48:18.694 IN OUR STANDARDS, IN OUR FAITH, IN OUR BOLDNESS, 01:48:18.694 --> 01:48:23.073 RIGHT? IN OUR STANCE, IN OUR STANDARDS, IN OUR SPEECH, IN 01:48:23.073 --> 01:48:26.103 OUR CONDUCT. LOOK AT MATTHEW CHAPTER 22. I WANNA SEE IF 01:48:26.103 --> 01:48:29.012 YOU SEE IT. THEN ONE OF THEM, WHICH WAS A LAWYER, 01:48:29.012 --> 01:48:32.912 ASKED HIM A QUESTION, TEMPTING HIM, SAYING, NOTICE 01:48:32.912 --> 01:48:38.643 HE WAS TEMPTING HIM, TRYING TO TRAP HIM. MASTER, WHAT IS 01:48:38.643 --> 01:48:43.984 THE GREATEST COMMANDMENT IN THE LAW? AND JESUS DIDN'T 01:48:43.984 --> 01:48:50.853 EVEN HESITATE. HE SAID, THOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD 01:48:50.853 --> 01:48:54.243 WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, WITH ALL YOUR 01:48:54.243 --> 01:48:57.932 MIND. AND THIS IS THE FIRST AND GREATEST COMMANDMENT. 01:48:57.932 --> 01:49:01.353 NOW WATCH THE SECOND ONE, SEE IF YOU SEE IT. AND THE 01:49:01.353 --> 01:49:05.673 SECOND IS LIKE, "THOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBORS OR 01:49:05.673 --> 01:49:10.682 SOMEBODY ELSE "AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF." MAN, IF PEOPLE 01:49:10.682 --> 01:49:13.143 WOULD TAKE CARE OF OTHERS AS THEY DO THEMSELVES, WE'D 01:49:13.143 --> 01:49:15.932 HAVE A WHOLE BETTER WORLD, WOULDN'T WE? AND ON THESE 01:49:15.932 --> 01:49:18.722 TWO COMMANDMENTS, HANG ALL THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS. 01:49:18.722 --> 01:49:20.012 NOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IS HE WAS 01:49:20.012 --> 01:49:23.432 DIVIDING THE 10 COMMANDMENTS IN TWO PARTS. 'CAUSE IF YOU, 01:49:23.432 --> 01:49:25.444 WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS, IF THEY'LL PUT 01:49:25.444 --> 01:49:28.262 THE GRAPHIC OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS UP FROM LAST 01:49:28.262 --> 01:49:29.673 WEEK, I WANNA SHOW YOU. THESE ARE THE 10 01:49:29.673 --> 01:49:33.993 COMMANDMENTS. NOW, THESE CAN BE DIVIDED IN TWO PARTS, HOW 01:49:33.993 --> 01:49:38.043 YOU TREAT GOD AND HOW YOU TREAT YOUR FELLOW MAN. AND 01:49:38.043 --> 01:49:41.253 THAT'S WHY JESUS, HE WASN'T GIVING IN TO THE TEMPTATION, 01:49:41.253 --> 01:49:44.194 THE ENTRAPMENT OF THAT LAWYER. HE WAS BASICALLY 01:49:44.194 --> 01:49:48.213 SAYING, LOVE GOD, LOVE PEOPLE. SO NOTICE THIS NEXT 01:49:48.213 --> 01:49:53.372 ONE. WHAT IS THE OTHER WORD OR CONCEPT THAT WE GET OUT 01:49:53.372 --> 01:49:57.332 OF THE COMMANDMENTS? AND I THINK IT'S WHAT IS MISSING, 01:49:57.332 --> 01:49:59.961 IS SOCIETY'S MISSING ELEMENTS. THERE'S TWO OF 01:49:59.961 --> 01:50:03.662 THEM. YOU'RE GONNA SEE IT. NUMBER ONE, THOU SHALL HAVE 01:50:03.662 --> 01:50:06.963 NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME. NUMBER TWO, YOU SHALL NOT 01:50:06.963 --> 01:50:11.432 MAKE ANY GRAVEN IMAGE OR IDOLS. THOU SHALL NOT TAKE 01:50:11.432 --> 01:50:15.904 THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD IN VAIN. REMEMBER THE 01:50:15.904 --> 01:50:20.253 SABBATH DAY TO KEEP IT HOLY. NUMBER FIVE, HONOR THY 01:50:20.253 --> 01:50:24.813 FATHER AND MOTHER. THOU SHALL NOT KILL, THOU SHALL 01:50:24.813 --> 01:50:28.654 NOT COMMIT ADULTERY. THOU SHALL NOT STEAL, AND THOU 01:50:28.654 --> 01:50:31.953 SHALL NOT MAKE UP THINGS AND BEAR FALSE WITNESS AGAINST 01:50:31.953 --> 01:50:36.453 THY NEIGHBOR. AND THOU SHALL NOT COVET. NOW, NOTICE THE 01:50:36.453 --> 01:50:39.753 TWO COMMANDMENTS. THE FIRST ONE WAS, REMEMBER WHAT JESUS 01:50:39.753 --> 01:50:43.682 SAID? THOU ART TO WHAT? WHAT WAS THE WORD THAT HE SAID? 01:50:43.682 --> 01:50:46.203 THOU ART TO WHAT? - LOVE. 01:50:46.203 --> 01:50:51.092 - LOVE. NOTICE YOU CANNOT LOVE GOD, YOU HAVE TO HAVE 01:50:51.092 --> 01:50:54.302 LOVE. YOU CANNOT JUST APPROACH GOD WITH YOUR 01:50:54.302 --> 01:50:55.984 HEART, SOUL, MIND. NO, THERE HAS TO BE THE LOVE 01:50:55.984 --> 01:51:00.753 CONNECTION. YOU CAN'T JUST BE ABOUT YOUR FELLOW MAN IF 01:51:00.753 --> 01:51:04.578 THERE ISN'T THE LOVE CONNECTION. NOW LOVE IS NOT 01:51:04.578 --> 01:51:07.787 AGREEING WITH PEOPLE ALL THE TIME. LOVE IS NOT BEING 01:51:07.787 --> 01:51:11.807 NICE. NICE IS CONFORMITY, RIGHT? LOVE IS HAVING A 01:51:11.807 --> 01:51:15.618 STANDARD. LOVE IS BEING TRUTHFUL, RIGHT? OKAY, IF I 01:51:15.618 --> 01:51:20.417 SAY TO SOMEBODY IN SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, HEY, THAT'S NOT 01:51:20.417 --> 01:51:26.898 ACCORDING TO GOD'S STANDARD. GOD SAID MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN 01:51:26.898 --> 01:51:31.488 ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN. IF GOD SAID THAT THERE ARE ONLY 01:51:31.488 --> 01:51:36.587 TWO GENDERS, HE CREATED THEM MALE AND FEMALE, RIGHT? 01:51:36.587 --> 01:51:41.028 THERE WAS NO CONFUSION WITH NOAH AND THE ARK. HE DIDN'T 01:51:41.028 --> 01:51:43.997 QUIZ HIM AND SAY, "NOW, WHICH ONE ARE YOU?" OKAY, 01:51:43.997 --> 01:51:47.898 THAT'S NOT HATE WHEN YOU SAY, "NO, I'M STANDING ON 01:51:47.898 --> 01:51:50.957 THE SIDE OF WHAT GOD SAID." I DON'T HATE YOU, IN FACT, I 01:51:50.957 --> 01:51:54.738 CAN HELP YOU, I CAN TALK WITH YOU, I CAN SHOW YOU 01:51:54.738 --> 01:51:58.398 SOME EXAMPLES IN SCRIPTURE, I CAN LOVE YOUR WAY TO 01:51:58.398 --> 01:52:02.627 REALLY COMING TO KNOW GOD IN A DEEPER LEVEL. BUT THAT'S 01:52:02.627 --> 01:52:06.259 LOVE, BEING ABLE TO SPEAK TRUTHFUL AND HONEST. BUT 01:52:06.259 --> 01:52:09.408 NOTICE THE SECOND PRINCIPLE, PUT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS UP. 01:52:09.408 --> 01:52:12.648 THESE ARE THE TWO SOCIETY'S MISSING ELEMENTS. NUMBER ONE 01:52:12.648 --> 01:52:16.547 IS LOVE. I JUST AM NOW STARTING TO SEE A RESURGENT 01:52:16.547 --> 01:52:20.868 FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AGAIN. HOW MANY OF YOU COULD 01:52:20.868 --> 01:52:23.328 ACKNOWLEDGE THAT? I AM, I'M SEEING PEOPLE REALLY WANTING 01:52:23.328 --> 01:52:28.127 TO KNOW GOD. BUT SECOND IS HONOR. NOTICE HOW ALL THIS 01:52:28.127 --> 01:52:31.421 HAS TO DO WITH HONOR. IF YOU HONOR GOD, YOU WON'T HAVE 01:52:31.421 --> 01:52:34.698 ANY OTHER GODS. IF YOU HONOR GOD, YOU'RE NOT GONNA TAKE 01:52:34.698 --> 01:52:36.707 HIS NAME IN VAIN. IF YOU HONOR GOD, YOU'RE GONNA GO 01:52:36.707 --> 01:52:39.707 TO CHURCH OR SET A DAY APART. IF YOU HONOR YOUR 01:52:39.707 --> 01:52:41.627 MOTHER AND FATHER, YOU'RE GONNA LISTEN TO WHAT THEY 01:52:41.627 --> 01:52:45.648 SAY AND NOT ARGUE WITH THEM. IF YOU HONOR SOMEBODY, YOU 01:52:45.648 --> 01:52:48.259 WON'T KILL 'EM, LIKE WE SAW WITH CHARLIE KIRK. THERE WAS 01:52:48.259 --> 01:52:50.832 NO HONOR THERE. NOW, THAT'S NOT TALKING ABOUT THOSE OF 01:52:50.832 --> 01:52:55.097 YOU GREAT VETERANS AND OUR SOLDIERS WHO SIGN UP, RIGHT, 01:52:55.097 --> 01:52:59.627 TO DEFEND YOUR COUNTRY, RIGHT, AND ITS CITIZENS. 01:52:59.627 --> 01:53:03.557 THAT'S DIFFERENT. THOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY. IF YOU 01:53:03.557 --> 01:53:07.037 LOVE YOUR WIFE AND HONOR HER, OR HONOR YOUR HUSBAND 01:53:07.037 --> 01:53:11.417 OR YOUR SPOUSE, YOUR HUSBAND, RIGHT, YOU'RE NOT 01:53:11.417 --> 01:53:16.009 GONNA COMMIT ADULTERY ON HIM. YOU'RE NOT GONNA STEAL. 01:53:16.009 --> 01:53:18.438 IF YOU HAVE LOVE AND HONOR, YOU'RE NOT GONNA TALK 01:53:18.438 --> 01:53:22.728 AGAINST PEOPLE. AND IF YOU REALLY LOVE AND HONOR, 01:53:22.728 --> 01:53:26.717 YOU'RE NOT GONNA COVET WHAT SOMEBODY ELSE HAS. SO THE 01:53:26.717 --> 01:53:33.228 TWO WORDS THAT ARE MISSING IN OUR SOCIETY TODAY IS LOVE 01:53:33.228 --> 01:53:36.587 AND HONOR. AND IT REALLY ISN'T THAT HARD. NOW, LET'S 01:53:36.587 --> 01:53:39.047 TALK ABOUT HONOR. WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT THESE TWO 01:53:39.047 --> 01:53:41.747 OVER THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS BEFORE I TURN IT OVER TO 01:53:41.747 --> 01:53:45.467 BRENDA TO PREACH FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. WOULDN'T YOU 01:53:45.467 --> 01:53:47.807 LIKE TO HEAR HER PREACH? YEAH, SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE, 01:53:47.807 --> 01:53:50.988 "MAN, I'D RATHER HAVE HER." THAT'S OKAY, SHE'S COMING. 01:53:50.988 --> 01:53:53.597 NOW, WATCH THIS, THOUGH. I WANNA TALK ABOUT HONOR. 01:53:53.597 --> 01:53:59.868 HONOR IS A CODE OF CONDUCT. HONOR IS LITERALLY ABOUT 01:53:59.868 --> 01:54:04.217 MORAL RIGHTNESS. IT'S ABOUT TO RESPECT, DOING WHAT'S 01:54:04.217 --> 01:54:07.787 RIGHT. IT'S ABOUT RESPECT, IT'S ABOUT HONESTY, RIGHT? 01:54:07.787 --> 01:54:11.448 IT'S TO TREAT OTHERS WITH DIGNITY. IT'S THE HIGHEST 01:54:11.448 --> 01:54:15.047 ETHICAL CONDUCT THERE IS. YOU KNOW, AND I'VE PREACHED 01:54:15.047 --> 01:54:16.787 ON HONOR BEFORE, AND I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE WORTH 01:54:16.787 --> 01:54:19.037 SAYING AGAIN. DO YOU KNOW THAT IF YOU LOOK AT THE 01:54:19.037 --> 01:54:21.287 WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY, YOU REMEMBER THAT BIG FAT BOOK? 01:54:21.287 --> 01:54:25.398 I DON'T KNOW HOW FAT IT IS ONLINE NOW. BUT FROM 1850, 01:54:25.398 --> 01:54:29.148 WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT, TO THE YEAR 2000, THE 01:54:29.148 --> 01:54:33.738 DEFINITION OF HONOR WAS LIKE THIS. BUT NOWADAYS, YOU LOOK 01:54:33.738 --> 01:54:35.807 UP THE DEFINITION OF HONOR, AND IT'S LIKE BARELY A 01:54:35.807 --> 01:54:39.948 SENTENCE. BECAUSE NOT ONLY HAS THE DEFINITION OF HONOR 01:54:39.948 --> 01:54:43.997 DWINDLED, BUT SO HAS THE PRINCIPLE AND THE SPIRIT OF 01:54:43.997 --> 01:54:49.068 IT. WHEN I GREW UP, I'M TELLING YOU, IF I WAS 01:54:49.068 --> 01:54:51.768 SITTING IN A CHURCH SERVICE, AND I DIDN'T LIKE THE 01:54:51.768 --> 01:54:56.868 PREACHER, MOM, WE WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ALLOWED TO GET UP 01:54:56.868 --> 01:55:00.618 AND WALK OUT. I HAVE PEOPLE DO THAT EVERY SERVICE, 01:55:00.618 --> 01:55:04.278 INCLUDING THIS ONE TODAY. 'CAUSE WE'VE BECOME SUCH AN 01:55:04.278 --> 01:55:06.528 HONOR, OH, I DON'T AGREE. THAT'S WHY A MAN GOT 01:55:06.528 --> 01:55:10.398 ASSASSINATED. 'CAUSE WE CAN'T JUST LISTEN TO WHAT 01:55:10.398 --> 01:55:14.927 PEOPLE ARE SAYING IN THE SPIRIT OF LOVE AND TRUTH. WE 01:55:14.927 --> 01:55:17.148 HAVE TO SHOW OUR DISAGREEMENT. WE CAN'T JUST 01:55:17.148 --> 01:55:22.997 GET ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND SAY, HEY, I'M NOT ABLE TO HEAR 01:55:22.997 --> 01:55:27.797 THE SERVICE. IT'S TURN IT UP! OR PEOPLE COMING AND 01:55:27.797 --> 01:55:30.887 BLAMING ME FOR YOUTUBE VIDEOS OUT THERE THAT PEOPLE 01:55:30.887 --> 01:55:36.408 ARE PIRATING OUR STUFF. LIKE I'M SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO 01:55:36.408 --> 01:55:39.768 DO SOMETHING. I MEAN, PEOPLE ARE SO MEAN-SPIRITED. 01:55:40.967 --> 01:55:44.402 ARGUING, FIGHTING. I MEAN, IT'S HARD. IF THEY DON'T 01:55:44.402 --> 01:55:46.818 LIKE THE SERVICE, WHAT DO THEY DO? THEY HAVE TO PUT 01:55:46.818 --> 01:55:50.328 THEIR SERMON OVER MY SERMON ONLINE. IT'S NO DIFFERENT 01:55:50.328 --> 01:55:54.078 THAN WHEN I USED TO GREET PEOPLE AT THE DOOR, USED TO. 01:55:54.078 --> 01:55:56.118 BECAUSE I WOULD JUST GET DONE WITH PREACHING AND 01:55:56.118 --> 01:55:58.847 THERE WOULD ALWAYS BE SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD. YOU 01:55:58.847 --> 01:56:01.795 KNOW, PASTOR, I HEARD YOUR SERMON, I AGREED WITH 01:56:01.828 --> 01:56:07.501 (MUMBLES) I AGREED WITH SOME OF IT, BUT I'M GONNA TELL 01:56:07.533 --> 01:56:10.188 YOU, THIS IS THE PARTS I DIDN'T AGREE WITH. AND 01:56:10.188 --> 01:56:12.198 THEY'D HAVE THEIR TABLET. AND I'D LOOK AT 'EM AND SAY, 01:56:12.198 --> 01:56:14.747 WELL, I DON'T CARE. I PREACHED IT. GO HOME AND 01:56:14.747 --> 01:56:20.297 STUDY IT. (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING) IT'S LIKE, CAN 01:56:20.297 --> 01:56:23.688 WE JUST EVER SHUT UP? I MEAN, WE WOULD NEVER BE 01:56:23.688 --> 01:56:26.028 ALLOWED TO GET UP AND WALK OUT. WE WOULD HAVE TO SIT 01:56:26.028 --> 01:56:29.627 THERE AND SWEAT AND GET MAD AND DISAGREE UNTIL THE 01:56:29.627 --> 01:56:32.868 SERVICE WAS OVER. MY MOM AND DAD, THEY DIDN'T LET ME 01:56:32.868 --> 01:56:36.018 ARGUE BACK. I HAD TO SIT THERE AND I HAD TO SHUT UP 01:56:36.018 --> 01:56:39.648 WHILE THEY TALKED TO ME AND TOLD ME THE WHAT FOR. I 01:56:39.648 --> 01:56:42.978 WASN'T ALLOWED TO JUSTIFY IT. I WASN'T ALLOWED TO GIVE 01:56:42.978 --> 01:56:47.417 AN EXCUSE. THEY WOULD SPEAK AND THEN THEY WOULD ASK ME 01:56:47.417 --> 01:56:51.018 TO GIVE MY ACCOUNT. IT'S WHY IT TURNED OUT THE WAY I DID. 01:56:52.068 --> 01:56:55.457 INDIGNANT AND ORNERY AS EVER, BUT I HAVE A MORAL 01:56:55.457 --> 01:57:01.698 STANDARD IN MY LIFE. WE DIDN'T GO AROUND CALLING 01:57:01.698 --> 01:57:05.509 PEOPLE BY THEIR FIRST NAMES IF THEY WERE ADULTS. WE 01:57:05.509 --> 01:57:08.627 DIDN'T DISRESPECT LAW ENFORCEMENT AND CALL THEM, 01:57:08.627 --> 01:57:12.677 YOU KNOW, DEFUNDING. (CONGREGATION MURMURS) NO. 01:57:14.387 --> 01:57:16.547 WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TO PREQUALIFY THAT. LAW 01:57:16.547 --> 01:57:21.618 ENFORCEMENT'S GOOD FOR SOCIETY. RIGHT? WE DIDN'T 01:57:21.618 --> 01:57:32.238 CALL PEOPLE THE N WORD, THE H WORD. RIGHT? WE DIDN'T SIT 01:57:32.238 --> 01:57:41.207 THERE AND GET OVER INTO, YOU KNOW, RACIAL VICTIMHOOD. I 01:57:41.207 --> 01:57:45.287 REMEMBER ONE OF MY GREAT FRIENDS AT MY PARENTS' 01:57:45.287 --> 01:57:50.417 SERVICE STATION WAS A MAN NAMED LARRY. AND LARRY WOULD 01:57:50.417 --> 01:57:56.148 COME IN WITH HIS JERRY CURL AND HIS CAP, AND HE SMELLED 01:57:57.228 --> 01:58:00.228 LIKE WHATEVER THAT CHEMICAL WAS ON HIS HEAD. AND HE'D 01:58:00.228 --> 01:58:05.537 PULL UP, AND HE HAD HIS BIG, HUGE CADILLAC. AND HE WOULD 01:58:05.537 --> 01:58:08.778 LET ME GET UNDERNEATH THE HOOD OF HIS CAR, AND TRUST 01:58:08.778 --> 01:58:11.927 ME, AND I WAS NOT IN HIS MIND A WHITE SUPREMACIST. 01:58:11.927 --> 01:58:18.377 AND IN MY MIND, HE WASN'T AN N. HE WAS A HUMAN BEING, AND 01:58:18.377 --> 01:58:21.768 HE WAS MY FRIEND. AND I KNEW THAT MOST OF THE GAS GOING 01:58:21.768 --> 01:58:25.457 IN HIS BIG GUZZLER, CADILLAC, HE COULD NOT 01:58:25.457 --> 01:58:29.597 AFFORD IT. HE WORKED AT A BUTCHER SHOP. HE WORKED 01:58:29.597 --> 01:58:33.347 HARD, AND MY DAD LOVED THAT GUY, AND WOULD LITERALLY LET 01:58:33.347 --> 01:58:36.648 HIM CHARGE HIS GAS AND MAKE PAYMENTS TO HIM. AND WHEN 01:58:36.648 --> 01:58:40.068 HIS CAR BROKE DOWN, MY DAD DIDN'T, WHAT COLOR SKIN HE 01:58:40.068 --> 01:58:42.438 HAD, HE TOLD HIM, "PULL YOUR CAR IN, I'LL TAKE CARE OF 01:58:42.438 --> 01:58:47.177 YOU, LARRY." AND I REMEMBER THE ONE DAY WHERE MY HONOR 01:58:47.177 --> 01:58:54.707 WAS TESTED. LARRY PULLS UP, CAN I IMITATE HIS VOICE? 01:58:54.707 --> 01:58:59.778 "PASTOR HANK, I GOTS ME A GIRL TONIGHT, SO I'M GONNA 01:58:59.778 --> 01:59:03.528 PULL UP TO THE FULL SERVICE ISLAND, AND YOU ARE GONNA 01:59:03.528 --> 01:59:05.778 GIVE ME FULL SERVICE, ALL RIGHT, MAN?" I SAID, "OKAY, 01:59:05.778 --> 01:59:10.307 LARRY." SO I GO OUT THERE, AND LARRY WOULD ONLY USUALLY 01:59:10.307 --> 01:59:13.997 GET $4, 'CAUSE THAT'S ALL HE COULD AFFORD, A FIVE, RIGHT? 01:59:13.997 --> 01:59:21.887 HE PULLS UP, AND HE WINKS AT ME. HE SAID, "FILL IT UP 01:59:21.887 --> 01:59:26.028 WITH THE USUAL." I'M THINKING, "IS THAT FOUR 01:59:26.028 --> 01:59:33.318 BUCKS OR FIVE BUCKS?" (CONGREGATION LAUGHING) SO I 01:59:33.318 --> 01:59:37.667 FILLED HIS CAR UP ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP. HE'S LOOKING 01:59:37.667 --> 01:59:42.078 OVER AND HE'S LIKE, HE'S LIKE, "HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY, 01:59:42.078 --> 01:59:44.268 HEY, HEY, HEY." 'CAUSE YOU KNOW, IT WAS LIKE 20 BUCKS. 01:59:44.268 --> 01:59:47.810 "HEY, HEY." I SAID, "YEAH, I GAVE YOU THE USUAL, LARRY. 01:59:47.810 --> 01:59:50.778 "YOU COULD JUST SEE, I NEVER SAW A BLACK MAN TURN WHITE." 01:59:50.778 --> 01:59:53.807 I MEAN, HE WAS LIKE, "HOW IN THE WORLD "AM I GONNA PAY 01:59:53.807 --> 02:00:01.217 FOR 20 BUCKS?" BUT I DID IT 'CAUSE I KNEW HE HAD A GIRL. 02:00:01.217 --> 02:00:07.728 AND THEN HE GOES, "AND CHECK MY TIRES. "AND DO THAT 02:00:07.728 --> 02:00:10.068 MECHANICAL STUFF UNDERNEATH MY HOOD." NOW, HE WAS TRYING 02:00:10.068 --> 02:00:12.707 TO IMPRESS HIS GIRL. AND I STARTED GETTING A LITTLE 02:00:12.707 --> 02:00:15.618 FRUSTRATED 'CAUSE THEN HE WAS ASKING ME TO SCRUB HIS 02:00:15.618 --> 02:00:19.877 WHITE WALLS. THEN HE TOLD ME HE HEARD A RATTLE UNDERNEATH 02:00:19.877 --> 02:00:22.759 THE THING AND COULD I CHECK IT OUT FOR HIS DATE? RIGHT 02:00:22.759 --> 02:00:24.648 WHEN HIS DATE, AND I'M STARTING TO GO, OKAY LARRY, 02:00:24.648 --> 02:00:28.698 I JUST GAVE YOU 15 BUCKS AND YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY MAKING ME 02:00:28.698 --> 02:00:31.908 CRAWL UNDERNEATH YOUR CAR. AND THEN IT DAWNED ON ME, 02:00:31.908 --> 02:00:34.923 WAIT A MINUTE, WAIT A MINUTE, WAIT A MINUTE, THIS 02:00:34.923 --> 02:00:39.528 IS MY FRIEND. AND SO I DID EVERYTHING, HE COMES BACK IN 02:00:39.528 --> 02:00:43.243 AND A COUPLE DAYS LATER HE PULLS UP, (MIMICS CAR ENGINE) 02:00:43.275 --> 02:00:46.037 HE GOES, MAN, THANK YOU HANK FOR COVERING FOR 02:00:46.037 --> 02:00:49.707 ME, BUT I CAN'T AFFORD THAT 15 BUCKS. I SAID, I GOT YOU, 02:00:49.707 --> 02:00:52.368 IT'S ALL GOOD. I SAID, BUT DON'T YOU EVER PULL UP TO 02:00:52.368 --> 02:00:54.408 THE FULL SERVE AISLE AND MAKE ME DO ALL THAT STUFF 02:00:54.408 --> 02:01:01.097 AGAIN. BUT THAT WAS JUST HONOR. HE HONORED ME AND I 02:01:01.097 --> 02:01:06.509 HONORED HIM. AND LIFE WAS A LOT HAPPIER. I DIDN'T GET 02:01:06.509 --> 02:01:13.347 MAD AT HIM. HE DIDN'T GET MAD AT ME, RIGHT? WE LIVE IN 02:01:13.347 --> 02:01:17.038 SUCH A SOCIETY WHERE PEOPLE CAN'T SAY ANYTHING ANYMORE. 02:01:21.087 --> 02:01:24.148 THIS IS WHAT'S WRONG. IF PEOPLE WOULD JUST GET BACK 02:01:24.148 --> 02:01:28.347 TO WHAT LOVE IS, WHAT HONOR IS, I THINK THE WORLD WOULD 02:01:28.347 --> 02:01:35.399 BE A WHOLE LOT HAPPIER. AMEN. ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA 02:01:35.399 --> 02:01:38.752 BE DONE HERE IN JUST A SECOND. I WANTED TO PREACH 02:01:38.752 --> 02:01:41.307 YOU SOMETHING, BUT MAYBE I'LL LEAVE THAT PART OUT 02:01:41.307 --> 02:01:45.207 UNTIL NEXT WEEK. BUT LET ME SHOW YOU, WHERE DOES THE 02:01:45.207 --> 02:01:48.328 PROBLEM WITH HONOR COME FROM? WHY IS THERE SUCH A 02:01:48.328 --> 02:01:52.557 DISHONORABLE SOCIETY? LOOK AT ISAIAH 14:13. NOW, 02:01:52.557 --> 02:01:54.658 HOW MANY OF YOU, AND THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, AS 02:01:54.658 --> 02:01:59.881 PASTOR DOUG COMES, HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE EVER THOUGHT FOR 02:01:59.881 --> 02:02:05.097 A MOMENT, WHAT REALLY CAUSED SATAN TO GET KICKED OUT OF 02:02:05.097 --> 02:02:12.509 HEAVEN? (CONGREGATION MURMURS) IT'S DISHONOR. THE 02:02:12.509 --> 02:02:14.427 BIBLE SAYS INIQUITY WAS FOUND IN HIM. NOW SOME 02:02:14.427 --> 02:02:16.738 PEOPLE SAY, WELL, THAT WAS PRIDE. YEAH, HE HAD PRIDE, 02:02:16.738 --> 02:02:20.637 THAT WAS THE FRUIT OF IT, RIGHT? HE HAD SELFISH 02:02:20.637 --> 02:02:25.078 AMBITION, THAT WAS THE FRUIT OF IT. HE HAD, GOLLY, A LOT 02:02:25.078 --> 02:02:31.917 OF THINGS. JEALOUSY, THAT'S GOOD. COVETOUSNESS, BUT WHAT 02:02:31.917 --> 02:02:39.898 WAS THE FRUIT OF WHAT CAUSED HIS ACTIONS? IT WAS 02:02:39.898 --> 02:02:43.618 DISHONOR. WHEN THEY WERE THROWING ROCKS THROUGH 02:02:43.618 --> 02:02:52.408 PEOPLE'S BUSINESSES, THAT'S CALLED DISHONOR. STEALING AN 02:02:52.408 --> 02:02:56.037 ELECTION IS CALLED DISHONOR. AND THEN CALLING OUT PEOPLE 02:02:56.037 --> 02:03:00.537 WHO HAVE A BRAIN COULD SEE LIKE A LOTTERY MACHINE, THE 02:03:00.537 --> 02:03:09.627 NUMBERS CHANGING 300,000 IN 20 SECONDS. WHAT WE'VE SEEN 02:03:09.627 --> 02:03:12.597 IN OUR COUNTRY OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS IS A LACK OF LOVE 02:03:12.597 --> 02:03:15.747 AND A LACK OF HONOR. AND I'M NOT CALLING OUT THE MEDIA 02:03:15.747 --> 02:03:20.548 AND THE HEATHEN, I'M CALLING OUT US, THE CHURCH. I'VE 02:03:20.548 --> 02:03:23.609 NEVER SEEN SO MUCH FIGHTING OVER PEOPLE, WITH PEOPLE. 02:03:24.779 --> 02:03:26.938 CHRISTIANS, JESUS SAID, "MAN, HERE'S HOW THE WORLD 02:03:26.938 --> 02:03:29.217 "WILL KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES, "IF YOU LOVE ONE 02:03:29.217 --> 02:03:32.666 ANOTHER." AND I THINK US CHRISTIANS, SOME OF US HAVE 02:03:32.666 --> 02:03:37.408 BEEN SOME OF THE WORST EXAMPLES EVER. HONOR, 02:03:37.408 --> 02:03:40.707 WHERE'S HONOR ANYMORE? WHERE'S DOING WHAT'S RIGHT? 02:03:40.707 --> 02:03:49.917 WHERE'S HAVING THE HIGHEST CODE OF CONDUCT? YOU KNOW, 02:03:49.917 --> 02:03:51.717 AS I WAS PREPARING THIS MESSAGE, MAYBE I SHOULDN'T 02:03:51.717 --> 02:03:54.268 SAY THIS, BUT YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A CONVERSATION I 02:03:54.268 --> 02:03:57.752 HAD WITH SOMEBODY A WHILE BACK THAT I PROBABLY COULD 02:03:57.752 --> 02:04:01.948 HAVE SAID, IT WASN'T WHAT I SAID, BUT IT WAS HOW I SAID 02:04:01.948 --> 02:04:03.868 THINGS THAT IT BUGS ME BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT, I 02:04:03.868 --> 02:04:08.097 WANNA GO AND I WANNA MAKE IT RIGHT. BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE 02:04:08.097 --> 02:04:10.618 HONOR'S IN MY HEART AND I DON'T WANT THAT PERSON TO 02:04:10.618 --> 02:04:14.368 THINK THAT I'M JUST, YOU KNOW, EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, 02:04:14.368 --> 02:04:22.018 I GOT SOMETHING IN MY CRAWL. I WANNA REPRESENT MYSELF AS 02:04:22.018 --> 02:04:24.328 AN HONORABLE MAN, AS AN HONORABLE PREACHER, AS AN 02:04:24.328 --> 02:04:27.118 HONORABLE PERSON. AND I'VE BEEN ASKING GOD TO SEARCH MY 02:04:27.118 --> 02:04:28.497 HEART AND FOR WHATEVER REASON, THAT JUST KEEPS 02:04:28.497 --> 02:04:31.677 COMING UP WHEN I'M PRAYING. YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT RIGHT. 02:04:31.677 --> 02:04:34.677 YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT RIGHT. NOW, THEY MAY NOT THINK THAT 02:04:34.677 --> 02:04:39.328 I FELT THAT WAY, BUT I DID. AND I DO, AND I WISH I COULD 02:04:39.328 --> 02:04:42.627 GO BACK, AND I'M GONNA DO IT. I'M GONNA MAKE IT RIGHT, 02:04:42.627 --> 02:04:45.688 IN THE RIGHT TIMING AS I KEEP PRAYING ABOUT IT. BUT 02:04:45.688 --> 02:04:48.658 THINK ABOUT IT IN YOUR LIFE, IN YOUR HEART FOR A MOMENT. 02:04:48.658 --> 02:04:50.938 COME ON, IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU THINK THAT, YOU 02:04:50.938 --> 02:04:53.967 KNOW WHAT, I GOTTA MAINTAIN HONOR HERE. MAYBE YOU'RE A 02:04:53.967 --> 02:04:57.569 PERSON THAT SHOWS UP LATE, EVERY SINGLE DAY OR ONCE A 02:04:57.569 --> 02:05:04.798 WEEK TO YOUR JOB. WHY NOT DO THE HONORABLE THING? MAKE IT 02:05:04.798 --> 02:05:07.259 RIGHT, SHOW UP WHEN YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO, SHOW UP EARLY. 02:05:10.738 --> 02:05:14.188 RATHER THAN AVOID THE BILL COLLECTORS, WHY DON'T YOU DO 02:05:14.188 --> 02:05:18.029 THE HONORABLE THING AND CALL 'EM? I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS, 02:05:18.029 --> 02:05:21.509 BEFORE I MARRIED BRENDA, I MADE 50 BUCKS A WEEK AS AN 02:05:21.509 --> 02:05:26.548 INTERN. AND I HAD GOTTEN, I HAD A CAR PAYMENT AT THAT 02:05:26.548 --> 02:05:28.618 TIME. I THINK THE CAR PAYMENT WAS LIKE 100 BUCKS A 02:05:28.618 --> 02:05:32.217 MONTH FOR A BIG OLD BOAT. AND I GOT BEHIND ON ONE 02:05:32.217 --> 02:05:36.988 PAYMENT. AND IN THOSE DAYS, YOU DIDN'T HAVE A CELL 02:05:36.988 --> 02:05:40.198 PHONE. SO THEY CALLED MY HOME LINE AND I JUST 02:05:40.198 --> 02:05:41.997 HAPPENED TO ANSWER IT. AND IT WAS THEM, THEY SAID, 02:05:41.997 --> 02:05:46.048 "HEY, YOU HAVE A FEW DAYS LATE ON YOUR PAYMENT." I 02:05:46.048 --> 02:05:47.938 SAID, "MAN, I AM SO SORRY." AND THEN I SAID, "YOU KNOW 02:05:47.938 --> 02:05:50.127 WHAT? "I ACTUALLY GOTTA BE HONEST WITH YOU. "I WAS 02:05:50.127 --> 02:05:53.967 TRYING TO AVOID YOU." HE SAID, "WHY?" I SAID, "'CAUSE 02:05:53.967 --> 02:05:56.787 I CAN'T AFFORD THOSE PAYMENTS." "WELL, WHY DON'T 02:05:56.787 --> 02:05:58.887 YOU COME DOWN TO MY OFFICE "AND LET'S SEE WHAT WE CAN 02:05:58.887 --> 02:06:04.137 DO TO FIX THAT." AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID? THEY 02:06:04.137 --> 02:06:12.478 FIXED IT AND LOWERED MY RATE BECAUSE I HONORED. COME ON, 02:06:12.478 --> 02:06:15.717 SOME OF YOU KIDS, THE BIBLE SAYS, "IT'LL BE WELL WITH 02:06:15.717 --> 02:06:18.509 YOU." DO YOU WANT A GOOD FUTURE? HOW MANY KIDS ARE 02:06:18.509 --> 02:06:24.509 UNDER THE AGE OF 25? RAISE YOUR HAND. YOU WANT IT TO BE 02:06:24.509 --> 02:06:26.488 GOOD WITH YOU? THE BIBLE SAYS YOU'RE TO HONOR YOUR 02:06:26.488 --> 02:06:31.048 MOM AND DAD SO THAT IT'LL BE WELL WITH YOU AND THAT IT'LL 02:06:31.048 --> 02:06:33.898 EVEN BE ATTACHED TO HOW LONG YOU LIVE. IT SAID THAT YOU 02:06:33.898 --> 02:06:38.427 MAY LIVE LONG ON THE EARTH RATHER THAN JUST GET MAD AT 02:06:38.427 --> 02:06:40.408 MOM AND DAD WHEN THEY TRY TO TELL YOU SOMETHING, CLEAN 02:06:40.408 --> 02:06:44.728 YOUR ROOM, PICK UP YOUR CLOTHES RIGHT, TREAT YOUR 02:06:44.728 --> 02:06:48.597 CAR RIGHT, TALK TO THEM RESPECTFUL, AND BY THE WAY, 02:06:48.597 --> 02:06:51.837 THERE IS NO AGE LIMIT. IT DOESN'T SAY CHILDREN OBEY 02:06:51.837 --> 02:06:56.967 YOUR PARENTS EXCEPT AFTER YOU TURN 35. AND I COULD DO 02:06:56.967 --> 02:07:02.608 BETTER WITH MY MOM. I THINK WE HAVE TO GET BACK TO A 02:07:02.608 --> 02:07:07.347 HIGH ETHICAL CODE OF CONDUCT CALLED HONOR. TELLING THE 02:07:07.347 --> 02:07:13.228 TRUTH, BEING TRUTHFUL, BEING STATESPEOPLE. YOU KNOW HOW 02:07:13.228 --> 02:07:15.948 MANY TIMES I REALLY WANNA SAY THINGS ON FLASHPOINT? 02:07:17.127 --> 02:07:20.457 BUT YOU DO. NOT LIKE I REALLY WANNA SOMETIMES SAY 02:07:20.457 --> 02:07:26.819 IT. BECAUSE I REALIZE THAT IT'S NOT MY SHOW. I HAVE TO 02:07:26.819 --> 02:07:29.337 HONOR WHOEVER'S SHOW IT IS. AND THEN AT THE SAME TIME, 02:07:29.337 --> 02:07:31.677 EVEN THOUGH I SAY, AND I KNOW MEDIA, I CALL YOU OUT, 02:07:31.677 --> 02:07:35.188 AND I CALL DIFFERENT ONES OUT. BUT I ALWAYS WANNA BE A 02:07:35.188 --> 02:07:39.387 STATESMAN. I WANNA BE TRUTHFUL, I WANNA BE HONEST, 02:07:39.387 --> 02:07:43.768 I WANNA BE HONORABLE. AND I WANNA BE BOLD. BUT DO IT 02:07:43.768 --> 02:07:46.018 WITH THE SPIRIT OF HONOR. YOU KNOW WHAT MADE ME SO MAD 02:07:46.018 --> 02:07:54.087 IN MY COUNTRY IS I GREW UP IN A MILITARY FAMILY. AND I 02:07:54.087 --> 02:07:57.207 USED TO SIT AND TALK WITH SOLDIERS THAT LOST LOVED 02:07:57.207 --> 02:08:02.247 ONES IN WORLD WAR I, WORLD WAR II, VIETNAM, DESERT 02:08:02.247 --> 02:08:07.108 STORM. WHEN I SAW THEM BURNING DOWN OUR FLAGS AND 02:08:07.108 --> 02:08:11.637 TRAMPLING ON THEM, AND RAISING UP PALESTINIAN FLAGS 02:08:11.637 --> 02:08:15.779 AND PRIDE FLAKES, AND I SAT THERE AND WATCHED CHRISTIANS 02:08:15.779 --> 02:08:21.627 LITERALLY BE SILENT. I'M LIKE, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND 02:08:21.627 --> 02:08:27.988 HONOR. AND I APPRECIATE, CAN I BE HONEST WITH YOU AS AN 02:08:27.988 --> 02:08:32.908 AMERICAN? I APPRECIATE THE CANADIAN NATIONAL ANTHEM, 02:08:32.908 --> 02:08:36.238 THE SPANISH NATIONAL ANTHEM, THE BLACK NATIONAL ANTHEM, 02:08:36.238 --> 02:08:39.988 BUT I'M SORRY, THERE AIN'T THE TIME FOR IT. WE NEED TO 02:08:39.988 --> 02:08:43.587 UNITE IN AMERICA OVER OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM THAT UNITES 02:08:43.587 --> 02:08:46.467 EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US, NO MATTER THE COLOR OF OUR 02:08:46.467 --> 02:08:50.217 SKIN. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) AND QUIT ALLOWING 02:08:50.217 --> 02:08:55.137 SEGREGATION AND DIVISION THAT IS CREATED NOT BY GOD, 02:08:56.337 --> 02:09:00.509 BUT BY PEOPLE WHO GET OUT OF LOVE AND GET INTO DISHONOR. 02:09:00.509 --> 02:09:03.298 AND I THINK WHAT GOD IS DOING IN THIS SHIFT CHANGE 02:09:03.298 --> 02:09:05.637 AND TURNING POINT IS I THINK HE'S BRINGING US BACK TO A 02:09:05.637 --> 02:09:09.807 PLACE OF HONOR AGAIN. HONORING GOD, BUT HONORING 02:09:09.807 --> 02:09:16.996 EACH OTHER. WHAT WE SAW HAPPEN ON SEPTEMBER 10TH WAS 02:09:16.996 --> 02:09:22.408 AN ACT OF DISHONOR. LOOK AT ISAIAH 14. FOR THOU HAS SAID 02:09:22.408 --> 02:09:24.658 IN THY HEART, THIS IS LUCIFER, I WILL ASCEND INTO 02:09:24.658 --> 02:09:28.497 HEAVEN, I'LL EXALT MY THRONE ABOVE THE STARS OF GOD. HIS, 02:09:28.497 --> 02:09:33.537 THE FIRST SIN THAT EVER HAPPENED WAS OVER DISHONOR. 02:09:33.537 --> 02:09:37.768 AND DON'T YOU THINK THAT THE DEVIL TODAY, THAT SAME 02:09:37.768 --> 02:09:42.898 SPIRIT OF DISHONOR, LUCIFERIAN SPIRIT IS GETTING 02:09:42.898 --> 02:09:45.779 INVOLVED IN OUR COUNTRY, IT'S GETTING INVOLVED IN 02:09:45.779 --> 02:09:51.387 PEOPLE, AND IT'S WHY WE'RE SEEING SUCH DIVISION. THE 02:09:51.387 --> 02:09:53.728 SECOND THING IS, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE FIRST SIN AMONG MAN 02:09:53.728 --> 02:10:01.648 WAS IN CLOSING? WAS EATING OF THE, FROM THE TREE THAT 02:10:01.648 --> 02:10:05.518 GOD SAID, OF ALL THE TREES IN THE GARDEN, YOU CAN 02:10:05.518 --> 02:10:09.060 FREELY EAT, BUT THERE'S ONE DON'T TOUCH. BECAUSE THE DAY 02:10:09.060 --> 02:10:12.177 YOU EAT THAT ONE, IT'S GONNA COST ME, GOD, EVERYTHING. 02:10:13.228 --> 02:10:16.108 AND IT'S GONNA COST YOU EVERYTHING TOO. AND ALL YOU 02:10:16.108 --> 02:10:20.217 HAVE TO DO IS HONOR WHAT I SAID. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? 02:10:20.217 --> 02:10:23.247 THAT SAME SPIRIT OF DISHONOR IN LUCIFER SHOWED UP AND 02:10:23.247 --> 02:10:28.137 STARTED TALKING. THAT'S WHY I CALL YOU OUT FAKE NEWS. 02:10:28.137 --> 02:10:31.497 BECAUSE YOU'RE THE SERPENT THAT'S BEEN TALKING AND 02:10:31.497 --> 02:10:36.328 SPREADING DISHONOR AND LIES ACROSS OUR COUNTRY AND 02:10:36.328 --> 02:10:40.198 FUELING HATE AND FUELING VIOLENCE. AND SOME OF YOU 02:10:40.198 --> 02:10:42.988 POLITICIANS TOO. BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE HONOR IN YOUR 02:10:42.988 --> 02:10:46.228 HEART. IF YOU HAD TRUE HONOR FOR THE JOB THAT YOU WENT TO 02:10:46.228 --> 02:10:50.667 SCHOOL FOR, TO TELL THE TRUTH AND REPORT THE TRUTH, 02:10:50.667 --> 02:10:53.427 YOU WOULDN'T SPEND IT NO MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY, NO 02:10:53.427 --> 02:10:56.488 MATTER WHAT POSITION THEY GAVE YOU. ELECTED OFFICIAL, 02:10:56.488 --> 02:11:00.537 IF YOU WOULD JUST GET THERE TO YOUR ELECTED OFFICE AND 02:11:00.537 --> 02:11:03.837 REPRESENT THE PEOPLE IN HONOR, WE'D HAVE A WHOLE 02:11:03.837 --> 02:11:09.319 DIFFERENT COUNTRY, RIGHT? BELIEVE ME, THEY WATCH 02:11:09.319 --> 02:11:15.139 BECAUSE THEY WRITE ABOUT US. SO ANYWAY, WHAT WAS THE 02:11:15.139 --> 02:11:20.809 FIRST SIN? DISHONOR. SO NEXT WEEK WE'LL TALK MORE ABOUT 02:11:20.809 --> 02:11:22.966 HONOR. I'M GONNA SHARE WITH YOU SOME OTHER THINGS. LET'S 02:11:22.966 --> 02:11:24.618 GO AHEAD AND STAND TO OUR FEET REAL QUICK BEFORE 02:11:24.618 --> 02:11:27.408 PASTOR DOUG COMES. DID YOU GET SOMETHING OUT OF WHAT I 02:11:27.408 --> 02:11:30.168 SAID? (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING) I WAS KIND OF 02:11:30.168 --> 02:11:32.479 ALL OVER THE PLACE IN MY MESSAGE, BUT HOPEFULLY 02:11:32.479 --> 02:11:36.649 EVERYBODY GOT SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, SO. AND I'LL JUST SAY 02:11:36.649 --> 02:11:39.679 IT FOR THE RECORD. IF YOU'RE VISITING HERE TODAY OR 02:11:39.679 --> 02:11:42.288 YOU'RE WATCHING ONLINE, I'M NOT HERE TO BECOME PASTOR 02:11:42.288 --> 02:11:45.828 POPULAR. I'M NOT HERE TO TRY TO MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD. I 02:11:45.828 --> 02:11:49.100 WANT TO MAKE YOU MAD ENOUGH THAT YOU FEEL LIKE LEAVING. 02:11:50.418 --> 02:11:53.418 OR MAYBE YOU LEAVE, BUT YOU COME BACK. I WANT TO TELL 02:11:53.418 --> 02:11:55.248 THE TRUTH. I WANT TO SPEAK THE TRUTH AND LOVE AND I 02:11:55.248 --> 02:11:57.297 WANT TO BRING HONOR BACK. AND THE ONLY WAY YOU DO IT 02:11:57.297 --> 02:12:02.418 IS YOU HAVE TO, YOU CAN'T AVOID THE ISSUES THAT ARE 02:12:02.418 --> 02:12:06.408 STARING US IN THE FACE, THAT ARE STEALING A GENERATION 02:12:06.408 --> 02:12:09.889 FROM US, THAT IS LITERALLY CREATING CONFUSION AND 02:12:09.889 --> 02:12:13.908 CONFLICT AND VIOLENCE AND HATRED AND THE MELTING POT 02:12:13.908 --> 02:12:18.889 OF AMERICA HAS BECOME SO BOILING. AND I FEEL LIKE GOD 02:12:18.889 --> 02:12:21.130 IS SAYING IF THESE TWO ELEMENTS JUST CAME BACK, 02:12:22.578 --> 02:12:25.309 BOY, WE WOULD HAVE A LOT TO BUILD ON FOR THE FUTURE. 02:12:25.309 --> 02:12:27.828 HEAVENLY FATHER, I SPOKE YOUR WORD, I SPOKE THE TRUTH 02:12:27.828 --> 02:12:30.048 TODAY, AND I PRAY THAT EVERYONE IN THE SOUND OF MY 02:12:30.048 --> 02:12:33.288 VOICE, THAT IT WOULD GO INTO THEIR HEARTS, AND THAT 02:12:33.288 --> 02:12:38.238 FATHER, YOU, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, WILL HELP GUIDE THEM 02:12:38.238 --> 02:12:41.658 AND LEAD THEM INTO TRUTH. LET THEM TAKE THE WORDS THAT 02:12:41.658 --> 02:12:44.929 I SAID, THE WORDS THAT I SPOKE, AND LET THEM SEARCH 02:12:44.929 --> 02:12:48.739 IT OUT, EVEN FOR THEMSELVES. THAT LORD, THAT ALL OF US 02:12:51.229 --> 02:12:55.998 WOULD RAISE THE STANDARD IN OUR LIFE OF LOVING YOU AND 02:12:55.998 --> 02:13:00.588 LOVING OTHERS, BUT BEING PEOPLE OF HONOR, HONORING 02:13:00.588 --> 02:13:04.128 YOU, GOD, HONORING YOUR COMMANDS, BUT HONORING ONE 02:13:04.128 --> 02:13:07.639 ANOTHER. AND I AM ASKING YOU TO FORGIVE US WHEN WE HAVE 02:13:07.639 --> 02:13:10.519 GOTTEN OUT OF THE LOVE WALK.

AND I'M ASKING YOU TO RESTORE THESE THINGS ONCE 02:13:17.538 --> 02:13:19.759 AGAIN, NOT ONLY IN OUR LIVES, BUT GOD IN OUR 02:13:19.759 --> 02:13:22.338 COMMUNITIES. LORD, WE WOULDN'T HAVE SEXUALLY 02:13:22.338 --> 02:13:26.088 EXPLOITED MATERIAL FOR KIDS IF IT WAS ABOUT LOVE AND 02:13:26.088 --> 02:13:30.529 HONOR. WE WOULDN'T HAVE CHILDREN TODAY AT THE AGE OF 02:13:30.529 --> 02:13:34.788 10 AND YOUNGER, GOD, THAT HAVE ABSOLUTELY GENDER 02:13:34.788 --> 02:13:38.748 MUTILATION. AND WHEN THEY GET OLDER, THEY'RE GONNA 02:13:38.748 --> 02:13:43.038 HAVE TO LIVE WITH THEIR DECISION BECAUSE OF THE LACK 02:13:43.038 --> 02:13:50.958 OF HONOR. FATHER I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD COME IN YOUR MERCY 02:13:50.958 --> 02:13:56.689 NOW AND IN YOUR GRACE AND IN YOUR HELP AND CAUSE THIS 02:13:56.689 --> 02:14:00.948 SHIFT IN THIS CHANGE TO BRING OUR COUNTRY AND OUR 02:14:00.948 --> 02:14:05.899 PEOPLE INTO A PLACE OF HEALING AND INTO STRENGTH 02:14:05.899 --> 02:14:11.059 AND TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE I PRAY.

THE REST OF YOU, I'M GOING TO 02:14:56.565 --> 02:14:59.479 ASK YOU IF YOU'D JUST STAY IN YOUR SEATS FOR A COUPLE 02:14:59.479 --> 02:15:04.998 MOMENTS, AND WE WILL CLOSE HERE SHORTLY. THANK YOU SO 02:15:04.998 --> 02:15:08.748 MUCH FOR OUR GUESTS COMING AGAIN TODAY. WE LOVE AND 02:15:08.748 --> 02:15:12.168 APPRECIATE YOU AND ARE SO GLAD THAT YOU'RE HERE. OUR 02:15:12.168 --> 02:15:14.899 ALTAR TEAM IS UP HERE AT THE END OF THE SERVICES, AND IF 02:15:14.899 --> 02:15:17.569 YOU NEED PRAYER FOR ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE, THEY'RE HERE 02:15:17.569 --> 02:15:22.368 AND AVAILABLE FOR YOU. THEY ARE HONORED TO BE ABLE TO 02:15:22.368 --> 02:15:26.538 PRAY WITH YOU. WELL, PASTOR HANK'S BEEN TALKING, AS YOU 02:15:26.538 --> 02:15:30.319 KNOW, ABOUT SHIFT CHANGE FOR QUITE A WHILE, AND HE 02:15:30.319 --> 02:15:34.279 BROUGHT UP GENESIS 1:14 TODAY. THE QUESTION WAS, WHO 02:15:34.279 --> 02:15:37.969 IS ON THE LORD'S SIDE? AND I WANT TO ASK YOU THAT 02:15:37.969 --> 02:15:41.029 INDIVIDUALLY RIGHT NOW. IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO ASK THAT 02:15:41.029 --> 02:15:44.538 AS A NATION, BUT IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO SHIFT AS 02:15:44.538 --> 02:15:48.588 A NATION AS GOD'S SHIFTING US. BUT LET ME ASK YOU 02:15:48.588 --> 02:15:53.029 INDIVIDUALLY, ARE YOU ON THE LORD'S SIDE? BECAUSE THE WAY 02:15:53.029 --> 02:15:57.498 THAT GOD DESIGNED HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH MANKIND ON 02:15:57.498 --> 02:16:02.448 THIS EARTH, HE MADE IT A FREE WILL RELATIONSHIP. YOU 02:16:02.448 --> 02:16:04.878 CAN CHOOSE WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT TO BE ON GOD'S 02:16:04.878 --> 02:16:08.719 SIDE. HE NEVER FORCES ANYONE. HE SENT JESUS TO 02:16:08.719 --> 02:16:12.618 SAVE US IF WE WOULD JUST ACCEPT AND REPENT OF OUR 02:16:12.618 --> 02:16:16.881 SIN. BUT YOU HAVE TO MAKE THAT CHOICE. AND MAYBE 02:16:16.881 --> 02:16:18.918 YOU'RE WATCHING ONLINE TODAY AND YOU HAVEN'T MADE THAT 02:16:18.918 --> 02:16:21.439 CHOICE, OR MAYBE YOU'RE EVEN HERE TODAY UNDER THE SOUND 02:16:21.439 --> 02:16:24.798 OF MY VOICE, AND YOU'VE NEVER REALLY MADE THAT 02:16:24.798 --> 02:16:28.969 CHOICE TO SERVE JESUS CHRIST. MAYBE YOU'VE NEVER 02:16:28.969 --> 02:16:32.029 BOWED YOUR KNEE TO HIM, OR MAYBE YOU'VE NEVER ASKED HIM 02:16:32.029 --> 02:16:34.430 TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND TO SAVE YOU AND MAKE YOU 02:16:34.430 --> 02:16:39.138 NEW. AND IT ALL STARTS WITH A SIMPLE PRAYER. IT'S THE 02:16:39.138 --> 02:16:43.459 WAY TO ETERNAL LIFE. THE ONLY WAY THAT YOU'LL EVER 02:16:43.459 --> 02:16:48.109 LIVE A SUCCESSFUL LIFE ON THIS EARTH AND THROUGH 02:16:48.109 --> 02:16:51.289 ETERNITY IS WHEN YOU MAKE JESUS CHRIST THE LORD OF 02:16:51.289 --> 02:16:55.699 YOUR LIFE. YOU CAN DO A LOT ON THIS EARTH WITHOUT GOD. 02:16:55.699 --> 02:16:58.850 YOU CAN MAKE MONEY, YOU CAN GET INTO PLEASURE AND HAVE 02:16:58.850 --> 02:17:04.998 THINGS, BUT IT WON'T GUARANTEE PEACE. GOD WON'T 02:17:04.998 --> 02:17:10.430 WORK WITH YOU TO FILL THAT VOID. AND THEN SOMEDAY, HELL 02:17:10.430 --> 02:17:15.049 WILL BE YOUR DESTINY. AND NO ONE WANTS TO GO TO HELL. IT 02:17:15.049 --> 02:17:19.488 WAS DESIGNED FOR SATAN AND HIS SERVANTS. IT WAS NEVER 02:17:19.488 --> 02:17:24.498 DESIGNED FOR HUMAN BEINGS. BUT UNFORTUNATELY, SOME 02:17:24.498 --> 02:17:27.888 PEOPLE SEND THEMSELVES THERE BECAUSE THEY ARE STUBBORN. 02:17:27.888 --> 02:17:30.709 THEY REFUSE TO TURN TO GOD. I WANT TO ASK YOU JUST TO 02:17:30.709 --> 02:17:33.260 BOW YOUR HEADS WITH ME, AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT 02:17:33.260 --> 02:17:38.869 THERE'S NO ONE IN THIS PLACE THAT HAS BEEN IN A PLACE IN 02:17:38.869 --> 02:17:41.840 THEIR LIFE WHERE THEY HAVE NOT MADE A DECISION FOR 02:17:41.840 --> 02:17:44.090 CHRIST. IT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISION THAT 02:17:44.090 --> 02:17:47.058 YOU'LL EVER MAKE. IT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHO YOU WILL 02:17:47.058 --> 02:17:49.968 MARRY. IT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE CAREER YOU'LL HAVE. 02:17:49.968 --> 02:17:52.158 IT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN HOW MUCH MONEY YOU MAKE DURING 02:17:52.158 --> 02:17:55.998 THIS LIFETIME. THERE'S NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN 02:17:55.998 --> 02:17:59.829 YOUR DECISION FOR CHRIST. AND I WANT TO ASK YOU TODAY, 02:18:01.430 --> 02:18:04.998 DO YOU NEED JESUS? DO YOU KNOW 100% THAT IF YOU WERE 02:18:04.998 --> 02:18:07.998 TO LEAVE THIS EARTH TODAY, SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN TO 02:18:07.998 --> 02:18:12.770 YOU, YOU'D LEAVE THIS EARTH AND GO HOME. WOULD IT BE 02:18:12.770 --> 02:18:17.658 HOME TO HEAVEN OR WOULD IT BE HOME TO HELL? THAT'S YOUR 02:18:17.658 --> 02:18:21.020 DECISION. WHEN I COUNT TO THREE TODAY, I'M GONNA ASK 02:18:21.020 --> 02:18:23.600 YOU TO BE VERY BOLD. IF YOU NEED CHRIST, IF YOU WANT TO 02:18:23.600 --> 02:18:26.748 MAKE A DECISION FOR HIM, YOU WANT TO MAKE HEAVEN YOUR 02:18:26.748 --> 02:18:30.289 ETERNAL HOME, YOU WANT TO SERVE GOD AND MAKE A SHIFT 02:18:30.289 --> 02:18:33.439 CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE, I'M GONNA ASK YOU TO BE VERY 02:18:33.439 --> 02:18:35.689 BOLD AND RAISE YOUR HAND. WE'RE GONNA PRAY FOR YOU 02:18:35.689 --> 02:18:41.629 TODAY. I'M GONNA COUNT TO THREE. ONE, TWO, THREE. IS 02:18:41.629 --> 02:18:44.478 THERE ANYONE HERE? AND YOU SAY, "I NEED JESUS TODAY." 02:18:44.478 --> 02:18:47.510 HANDS RAISED HIGH. I HAVE TO SEE YOU IN THESE LIGHTS. IS 02:18:47.510 --> 02:18:50.988 THERE ANYONE HERE? YOU NEED JESUS. YOU WANT TO MAKE 100% 02:18:50.988 --> 02:18:53.808 SURE THAT JESUS IS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE. YOU WANT 02:18:53.808 --> 02:18:55.908 HEAVEN TO BE YOUR HOME. I SEE A COUPLE HANDS UP HERE 02:18:55.908 --> 02:18:59.449 IN THE STADIUM. ANY OTHERS? ANYONE ELSE THAT'S BOLD 02:18:59.449 --> 02:19:03.949 ENOUGH? SAY, I WANT JESUS IN MY HEART. THOSE THAT RAISED 02:19:03.949 --> 02:19:06.439 THEIR HANDS UP THERE IN THE STADIUM SEATS, YOU CAN JUST 02:19:06.439 --> 02:19:08.988 GET UP RIGHT NOW, IF YOU WOULD, PLEASE, AND BE BOLD. 02:19:08.988 --> 02:19:12.109 COME RIGHT DOWN HERE IN FRONT OF ME. AND I'M GOING 02:19:12.109 --> 02:19:16.760 TO PRAY FOR YOU TODAY. WE'RE GOING TO GIVE THEM A LITTLE 02:19:16.760 --> 02:19:21.109 TIME TO GET DOWN HERE. MAYBE THERE'S SOMEONE ELSE HERE 02:19:21.109 --> 02:19:25.549 WHILE THEY'RE COMING, AND YOU SAY, "JESUS HAS BEEN THE 02:19:25.549 --> 02:19:28.369 LORD OF MY LIFE. "I MADE HIM MY SAVIOR, BUT I GOT OFF 02:19:28.369 --> 02:19:32.209 TRACK. "I WENT THE WRONG WAY, AND I NEED TO REPENT." 02:19:32.209 --> 02:19:34.609 MAYBE THAT'S YOU. MAYBE YOU'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN SOME 02:19:34.609 --> 02:19:36.949 THINGS THAT YOU KNOW GOD WOULD NOT HAVE YOU BE 02:19:36.949 --> 02:19:39.799 INVOLVED IN IN YOUR LIFE. I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO COME 02:19:39.799 --> 02:19:41.930 UP HERE WITH THESE TWO, AND WE'RE GOING TO REPENT AND 02:19:41.930 --> 02:19:46.670 MAKE IT RIGHT. THE BIBLE SAYS THERE'S JOY. THERE'S A 02:19:46.670 --> 02:19:49.998 CELEBRATION THAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN WHEN THE SINNER COMES 02:19:49.998 --> 02:19:53.113 BACK TO GOD. THANK YOU TWO FOR COMING.
