This program is made
possible by the giving

00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:06.150
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.380 --> 00:00:09.990 line:15%
Hello friend. My name is Denise Renner
4
00:00:09.990 --> 00:00:12.360 line:15%
and I welcome you to my program.
5
00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:16.890 line:15%
We're talking about how
we can love others better,
6
00:00:16.890 --> 00:00:20.850 line:15%
and I want to offer
you my 10 parts series.
7
00:00:20.850 --> 00:00:25.290 line:15%
It's a video series called
How Can I Love Others Better?
8
00:00:25.290 --> 00:00:28.110 line:15%
Have you ever asked
yourself that question?
9
00:00:28.110 --> 00:00:30.750 line:15%
I've asked myself that question.
10
00:00:30.750 --> 00:00:34.020 line:15%
And in studying this, I got so encouraged
11
00:00:34.020 --> 00:00:35.550 line:15%
and I wanna share that with you.
12
00:00:35.550 --> 00:00:39.540 line:15%
And it comes also with a study guide.
13
00:00:39.540 --> 00:00:44.540 line:15%
And I wanna offer you my book, Who Stole Cinderella?
14
00:00:44.610 --> 00:00:48.840 line:15%
Now this book can really
help you in marriages.
15
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:51.000 line:15%
It it, even if you're not married,
16
00:00:53.040 --> 00:00:55.290 line:15%
there's word of God -
17
00:00:55.290 --> 00:00:58.770 line:15%
this book's filled with the word of God in helping us
18
00:00:58.770 --> 00:01:01.680 line:15%
through relationships and our attitudes.
19
00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:06.240 line:15%
And I've been teaching on marriage for 16 years
20
00:01:06.240 --> 00:01:09.990 line:15%
and I've used this book as a foundation.
21
00:01:09.990 --> 00:01:13.410
And so many people have been
helped in their marriages.
22
00:01:13.410 --> 00:01:16.470 line:15%
Even divorces have been stopped,
23
00:01:16.470 --> 00:01:19.470 line:15%
husbands have started esteeming their wives
24
00:01:19.470 --> 00:01:23.640
more: wives started respecting their husbands more.
25
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.340 line:15%
There was forgiveness
given to one another.
26
00:01:26.340 --> 00:01:29.040
And I want you to have this book.
27
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:33.570
And also, today. I wanna offer you a
28
00:01:33.570 --> 00:01:34.890
free offer.
29
00:01:34.890 --> 00:01:36.720
And I'm so excited about it.
30
00:01:36.720 --> 00:01:41.700 line:15%
It's my 2-little books: one's called Redeem from Shame -
31
00:01:41.700 --> 00:01:43.980 line:15%
that Jesus took our shame on the Cross.
32
00:01:43.980 --> 00:01:46.650 line:15%
You don't have to live with shame in your life
33
00:01:46.650 --> 00:01:50.550 line:15%
and also The Gift of Forgiveness.
34
00:01:50.550 --> 00:01:52.470 line:15%
You say, well, these are just so little,
35
00:01:52.470 --> 00:01:53.640 line:15%
but I'm telling you, I've gotten
36
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:57.000 line:15%
so many testimonies from
both of these books.
37
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:01.410
I even got a testimony from
a prisoner from this book
38
00:02:01.410 --> 00:02:03.150
and he said,
39
00:02:03.150 --> 00:02:05.610
I got set free from all the
40
00:02:05.610 --> 00:02:07.410
unforgiveness that I had in my life.
41
00:02:07.410 --> 00:02:10.440
And he said, I shared it with everybody.
42
00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:13.950
So I want you to have
this and it's free to you.
43
00:02:15.420 --> 00:02:18.450
So I want you to stay with me
'cause I'm gonna be right back
44
00:02:18.450 --> 00:02:23.130
and we're gonna talk about - How You Can Love Others Better.
45
00:02:24.330 --> 00:02:28.260
It's time for big miracles and changes in your life.
46
00:02:29.160 --> 00:02:30.450
Join Denise Renner
47
00:02:30.450 --> 00:02:34.050
and dive into the study of God's word, which has great power
48
00:02:34.050 --> 00:02:38.100
to strengthen faith, inspire change, heal physically
49
00:02:38.100 --> 00:02:40.620 line:15%
and spiritually, and most importantly,
50
00:02:40.620 --> 00:02:42.120
help you learn about the power
51
00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:43.830
of Christ Jesus living in you.
52
00:02:44.940 --> 00:02:46.980
It's time with Denise Renner.
53
00:02:50.670 --> 00:02:53.640 line:15%
Well, I think this teaching's really gonna help you today,
54
00:02:53.640 --> 00:02:57.420 line:15%
but before I give this teaching,
55
00:02:57.420 --> 00:03:00.250 line:15%
I wanna give you a testimony.
56
00:03:00.250 --> 00:03:03.730 line:15%
And this woman says that there was a word
57
00:03:03.730 --> 00:03:07.450 line:15%
of knowledge on one of our programs and
58
00:03:07.450 --> 00:03:09.010 line:15%
and what the word was,
59
00:03:09.010 --> 00:03:13.150 line:15%
that God was healing someone's eyes
60
00:03:13.150 --> 00:03:16.210
because they had stressed in their life
61
00:03:16.210 --> 00:03:19.150
and it had affected their eyes.
62
00:03:19.150 --> 00:03:21.250
Well, this woman wrote
63
00:03:21.250 --> 00:03:24.820
and she had muscular degeneration.
64
00:03:26.050 --> 00:03:30.340
And when she received that word of knowledge, she received
65
00:03:30.340 --> 00:03:31.840
that healing.
66
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:36.250
It was gone. It was gone. I love what she says -
67
00:03:36.250 --> 00:03:39.700
she says her eyes were healed completely
68
00:03:39.700 --> 00:03:43.990
and she's going to surprise the doctor later this afternoon.
69
00:03:43.990 --> 00:03:45.850
Isn't it that great?
70
00:03:45.850 --> 00:03:50.080
I tell you, friend, I love
when the healing power comes
71
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:51.940
and interrupts our lives.
72
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:56.140
I love the power of God to come
73
00:03:56.140 --> 00:04:01.140
and interrupt what's going: on our problems, sickness,
74
00:04:01.420 --> 00:04:04.000
disease, bitterness,
75
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:08.620
financial problems, relational problems,
76
00:04:10.060 --> 00:04:12.010
any kind of problems.
77
00:04:12.010 --> 00:04:16.600
And the power of God comes
to interrupt those problems.
78
00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:18.850
And that's what happened to that woman.
79
00:04:18.850 --> 00:04:20.890
I'm so thrilled about that.
80
00:04:20.890 --> 00:04:24.370
Well, I wanna share with you today about
81
00:04:24.370 --> 00:04:29.110
how we can stop ourselves,
82
00:04:29.110 --> 00:04:31.990
understand what Jesus said about judging
83
00:04:31.990 --> 00:04:35.350
and what judging does to
not only somebody else,
84
00:04:35.350 --> 00:04:37.510
but also does to ourself.
85
00:04:37.510 --> 00:04:41.950
And we're gonna start in Matthew
86
00:04:41.950 --> 00:04:44.170 line:15%
7, and it's verse 1.
87
00:04:45.010 --> 00:04:48.190
And I wanna give you a little
story before I start this.
88
00:04:50.080 --> 00:04:53.830
I was teaching, oh, many years
ago in, in a marriage class.
89
00:04:53.830 --> 00:04:58.390
And so I said, I said, ladies,
90
00:04:58.390 --> 00:05:03.070
I want you to raise your hand
if you absolutely believe a
91
00:05:03.070 --> 00:05:04.450
hundred percent
92
00:05:04.450 --> 00:05:07.390
that you are better
person than your husband.
93
00:05:08.260 --> 00:05:10.810
Well silence in the room.
94
00:05:10.810 --> 00:05:13.990
And then this one woman on the front row
95
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:17.140
raises her hand so boldly.
96
00:05:18.520 --> 00:05:21.190
And I said, okay, now you are saying
97
00:05:21.190 --> 00:05:24.760
that you are a better
person than your husband.
98
00:05:24.760 --> 00:05:27.550
She said - 100%.
99
00:05:28.390 --> 00:05:29.980
Well, I didn't know what to say to her.
100
00:05:29.980 --> 00:05:33.190
So I said, well, let's turn to
101
00:05:33.190 --> 00:05:35.620
Matthew 7:1,
102
00:05:35.620 --> 00:05:37.750
and let's see what Jesus has to say.
103
00:05:38.710 --> 00:05:41.950 line:15%
So it says - Judge not
104
00:05:41.950 --> 00:05:44.950 line:15%
that you be not judged.
105
00:05:44.950 --> 00:05:49.090 line:15%
Now friend, this is Jesus talking.
106
00:05:49.090 --> 00:05:51.010
This is his command.
107
00:05:51.010 --> 00:05:54.250
And he's saying that when we judge,
108
00:05:54.250 --> 00:05:56.020
we will be judged.
109
00:05:56.930 --> 00:06:00.020
I've meditated on this
for hours and hours.
110
00:06:00.020 --> 00:06:04.160
And I believe Jesus was saying -
111
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:08.930
Don't judge, and you won't be judged.
112
00:06:08.930 --> 00:06:12.200
Because if you've ever
been judged yourself,
113
00:06:12.200 --> 00:06:15.800
I'm sure looking at thousands
of people who have been judged
114
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:18.440
by somebody and you didn't like it.
115
00:06:18.440 --> 00:06:21.980
I've been judged by others.
I didn't like it either.
116
00:06:23.150 --> 00:06:28.070
So, but when I judge, I'll be judged.
117
00:06:28.070 --> 00:06:33.070
So when you judge somebody, I'm not talking about, you know,
118
00:06:33.380 --> 00:06:36.800
a mental judgment of like, okay,
119
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:39.560
now the traffic light
was red, now it's green.
120
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.200
That's a mental judgment. No,
I'm not talking about that.
121
00:06:42.200 --> 00:06:44.990
I'm talking about criticism.
122
00:06:44.990 --> 00:06:49.280
I'm talking about if you
were in their situation,
123
00:06:49.280 --> 00:06:51.020
you would never do that.
124
00:06:52.550 --> 00:06:54.680
You are better than them.
125
00:06:55.670 --> 00:06:58.550
We kind of put on these
self-righteous robes
126
00:06:58.550 --> 00:07:01.040
and say, you know, I would never do that.
127
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:03.530
And of course I'm better than them.
128
00:07:03.530 --> 00:07:07.760
This judgmental kind of attitude, this is
129
00:07:07.760 --> 00:07:09.710
what Jesus is talking about.
130
00:07:09.710 --> 00:07:11.960
And he's saying, when we judge,
131
00:07:11.960 --> 00:07:13.550
judgment will come back on us.
132
00:07:13.550 --> 00:07:17.960 line:15%
Well, the next verse says, for
with what judgment you judge,
133
00:07:17.960 --> 00:07:20.900 line:15%
you will be judged.
134
00:07:20.900 --> 00:07:23.060 line:15%
And with the measure you use,
135
00:07:23.060 --> 00:07:25.160 line:15%
it will be measured back to you.
136
00:07:26.270 --> 00:07:29.150 line:15%
Jesus is so clear, he,
137
00:07:29.150 --> 00:07:32.900
he's saying in the very
same way that you judge
138
00:07:32.900 --> 00:07:37.160
that very same way, that very same amount
139
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:38.810
you will be judged.
140
00:07:41.180 --> 00:07:45.050
So let's say that you have a friend and,
141
00:07:45.050 --> 00:07:48.200
but you start seeing
things about this friend
142
00:07:48.200 --> 00:07:49.760
that you don't like.
143
00:07:49.760 --> 00:07:53.600
And and so you start to think,
well, I would never do that.
144
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:56.900
Or, or, well, I'm better than that.
145
00:07:56.900 --> 00:08:00.980
And, and you start putting on those,
146
00:08:00.980 --> 00:08:05.420
those self-righteous
kind of judgment outfits.
147
00:08:06.290 --> 00:08:10.400
Well it, with all the
thoughts that you have towards
148
00:08:10.400 --> 00:08:14.090
that person with all the
attitudes, the amount, that's
149
00:08:14.090 --> 00:08:16.070
what Jesus is talking about - is amount.
150
00:08:17.060 --> 00:08:22.010
That very same amount is
gonna come right back to you.
151
00:08:23.840 --> 00:08:28.520
This is amazing that Jesus
would say the very same way,
152
00:08:28.520 --> 00:08:31.370
the very same measure, you can measure it.
153
00:08:31.370 --> 00:08:34.940
If you judge this much,
you'll be judged this much.
154
00:08:34.940 --> 00:08:38.240
If you judge this much,
you'll be judged this much.
155
00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:39.860
If you judge this much,
156
00:08:39.860 --> 00:08:42.830
you're gonna receive this much judgment.
157
00:08:42.830 --> 00:08:45.800
He's not talking about judgment from him.
158
00:08:45.800 --> 00:08:48.680
He's talking about judgment from others.
159
00:08:48.680 --> 00:08:53.060
The way that you judge
others is the exact same way
160
00:08:53.060 --> 00:08:56.460
that others will bring back
that same judgment on you.
161
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:00.600
You know, many times
you might hear somebody
162
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:02.250
and they're gossiping.
163
00:09:02.250 --> 00:09:06.450
Well, I think, I think to myself if that person's gossiping
164
00:09:06.450 --> 00:09:11.070
and about that person, then that person will
165
00:09:11.070 --> 00:09:15.030
be just as capable of gossiping about me.
166
00:09:15.960 --> 00:09:20.550
That character, that
that ability to gossip,
167
00:09:20.550 --> 00:09:25.290
that ability to, to
judge that's character.
168
00:09:25.290 --> 00:09:29.040
And Jesus is saying, if
you, if you judge this much,
169
00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:30.870
you're gonna be judged this much.
170
00:09:31.830 --> 00:09:35.850
It's so serious what he's saying.
171
00:09:35.850 --> 00:09:37.140
And then it says,
172
00:09:37.140 --> 00:09:40.740 line:15%
and why do you look at the
speck in your brother's eye,
173
00:09:41.730 --> 00:09:45.960 line:15%
but do not consider the
plank that's in your own eye.
174
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.520 line:15%
So let's say that, let's say
a husband and wife. Okay?
175
00:09:50.520 --> 00:09:53.220
So you see something in your husband
176
00:09:53.220 --> 00:09:55.890
or you see something in your wife
177
00:09:55.890 --> 00:10:00.180
and your mind, your mind, you see it
178
00:10:00.180 --> 00:10:03.510
and then you think about it, you see it,
179
00:10:03.510 --> 00:10:04.740
and then you think about it.
180
00:10:05.910 --> 00:10:09.180 line:15%
It says right there, it says,
181
00:10:09.180 --> 00:10:13.800 line:15%
why do you look
182
00:10:13.800 --> 00:10:17.310 line:15%
at the speck that's in your brother's eye,
183
00:10:17.310 --> 00:10:21.990 line:15%
but do not consider the plank
that is in your own eye.
184
00:10:21.990 --> 00:10:26.130 line:15%
So you are looking at a tiny
185
00:10:26.130 --> 00:10:30.900 line:15%
speck in their eye, but you're looking and you're looking
186
00:10:30.900 --> 00:10:32.190 line:15%
and you're thinking, and you're
187
00:10:32.190 --> 00:10:33.900 line:15%
looking and you are thinking.
188
00:10:33.900 --> 00:10:38.850
And then it says, but you don't consider the board
189
00:10:38.850 --> 00:10:42.750
or the plank that's in your own eye.
190
00:10:43.920 --> 00:10:47.730
Now this - let me explain. This plank
191
00:10:47.730 --> 00:10:49.920
that Jesus is talking about.
192
00:10:49.920 --> 00:10:54.450
It's not just, you know, it's
not just this big, you know,
193
00:10:54.450 --> 00:10:57.060
or it's not just this big.
194
00:10:57.060 --> 00:11:00.330
It is a complete board
195
00:11:00.330 --> 00:11:05.010
that you would put under the foundation
196
00:11:05.010 --> 00:11:06.960
of your house.
197
00:11:08.610 --> 00:11:11.700
This board
198
00:11:11.700 --> 00:11:15.330
that you have decided
that you are so right,
199
00:11:15.330 --> 00:11:16.530
that you can judge
200
00:11:16.530 --> 00:11:20.130
and criticize in your eye
201
00:11:20.130 --> 00:11:24.000
as the judger is so huge,
202
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:28.680
it is sticking out grotesquely
203
00:11:28.680 --> 00:11:30.210
out of your eye.
204
00:11:30.210 --> 00:11:32.580
If somebody was to walk by,
205
00:11:32.580 --> 00:11:35.670
they would bump into your judgment.
206
00:11:35.670 --> 00:11:40.050
That's how big in the
spirit that that board is.
207
00:11:41.220 --> 00:11:44.970
But the spec that's in your brother's eye,
208
00:11:44.970 --> 00:11:47.100
and I looked this up in the Greek,
209
00:11:47.100 --> 00:11:51.480
it means it's just a tiny little splinter.
210
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:53.530
It's just a,
211
00:11:53.530 --> 00:11:57.130
a small moral defect.
212
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:04.360
So why are we so captivated by their spec
213
00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:06.070
and we don't see the board -
214
00:12:07.330 --> 00:12:10.300
because we don't see the board
215
00:12:10.300 --> 00:12:13.210
because all we're thinking about is their speck.
216
00:12:14.290 --> 00:12:16.690
If you think about this friend,
217
00:12:16.690 --> 00:12:18.820
if you actually pictured in your mind,
218
00:12:18.820 --> 00:12:20.260
and I'm very visual
219
00:12:21.280 --> 00:12:26.140
of a board coming out of my eye,
220
00:12:26.140 --> 00:12:27.580
and
221
00:12:27.580 --> 00:12:31.810
so I standing there looking ridiculous
222
00:12:31.810 --> 00:12:35.440
with this huge board coming out of my eye,
223
00:12:36.760 --> 00:12:39.370
but I don't notice that all
224
00:12:39.370 --> 00:12:43.990
that I notice is this tiny little speck
225
00:12:43.990 --> 00:12:46.270
that's in my brother's eye.
226
00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:50.650
And my all of my attention
227
00:12:51.700 --> 00:12:53.980
is on that speck.
228
00:12:53.980 --> 00:12:56.410
That's what Jesus is saying: he said,
229
00:12:57.700 --> 00:13:00.160
he said -
230
00:13:00.160 --> 00:13:03.940 line:15%
Why don't you consider, why don't you consider?
231
00:13:03.940 --> 00:13:06.670 line:15%
Think about that board that's in your eye.
232
00:13:06.670 --> 00:13:08.380 line:15%
And then the next verse says,
233
00:13:08.380 --> 00:13:11.500 line:15%
and how can you say to your brother,
234
00:13:11.500 --> 00:13:14.890 line:15%
let me remove the speck from your eye
235
00:13:14.890 --> 00:13:18.040 line:15%
and look, there's a plank in your own eye.
236
00:13:18.040 --> 00:13:20.800 line:15%
So, you know, stay with me and,
237
00:13:20.800 --> 00:13:22.450
and to visualize with me
238
00:13:22.450 --> 00:13:25.090
that huge board coming out of your eye.
239
00:13:25.090 --> 00:13:27.040
And people wanna get close to you,
240
00:13:27.040 --> 00:13:29.980
but they keep bumping up into that board.
241
00:13:29.980 --> 00:13:31.630
And then, then,
242
00:13:31.630 --> 00:13:35.470
but you're so captivated on the spec
243
00:13:35.470 --> 00:13:37.930
that's on your brother's eye.
244
00:13:38.890 --> 00:13:43.890
And now you've become so deceived
245
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:46.960
by this speck
246
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:51.160
and your, your board, your are
bored sticking outta your eye
247
00:13:52.030 --> 00:13:56.380
that now you've decided - you know what -
248
00:13:57.490 --> 00:14:00.340
I'm gonna say to my friend
249
00:14:00.340 --> 00:14:02.680
what I think is wrong with them.
250
00:14:04.660 --> 00:14:07.810
Now in the spirit, you are gonna talk
251
00:14:07.810 --> 00:14:11.650
to them about a tiny
little spec, a splinter.
252
00:14:11.650 --> 00:14:15.640
And in the spirit, as Jesus describes it,
253
00:14:15.640 --> 00:14:18.340
that board is just
sticking outta your eye.
254
00:14:20.380 --> 00:14:24.100
And now you stand there - Brother,
255
00:14:24.100 --> 00:14:28.030
let me tell you what's wrong with you.
256
00:14:28.030 --> 00:14:31.150
And let me tell you
257
00:14:31.150 --> 00:14:33.580
how you can fix it.
258
00:14:36.070 --> 00:14:39.310
Haven't you seen this in relationships?
259
00:14:39.310 --> 00:14:42.070
Haven't you ever seen this in marriages?
260
00:14:42.070 --> 00:14:44.410
I know that I have done that,
261
00:14:44.410 --> 00:14:47.230
that I've had a huge board in my own eye
262
00:14:47.230 --> 00:14:50.680
and I've looked at the
speck in my husband's eye
263
00:14:50.680 --> 00:14:55.280
and been so captivated by the
spec that I didn't even know
264
00:14:55.280 --> 00:14:59.210
that there was a board
sticking out of my own eye.
265
00:14:59.210 --> 00:15:03.950
But that's the power
of that, that judgment
266
00:15:03.950 --> 00:15:07.970
that we've decided to take on that it,
267
00:15:07.970 --> 00:15:10.130
it builds that board.
268
00:15:12.050 --> 00:15:15.470
You know, some people, you get around them
269
00:15:15.470 --> 00:15:17.720
and maybe you're in a great mood,
270
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:19.400
but they're not in such a great mood
271
00:15:19.400 --> 00:15:21.740
and they're just being
critical of everybody.
272
00:15:21.740 --> 00:15:24.980
Well, that board is
sticking outta their eye
273
00:15:24.980 --> 00:15:28.370
and you come up to 'em and
you bump up into that board.
274
00:15:28.370 --> 00:15:33.200
You don't even enjoy their
company so much. Well why?
275
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:35.720
It's because they got a board sticking out of their eye.
276
00:15:36.590 --> 00:15:40.190
Their concentration is on the
speck of somebody else's eye.
277
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:46.100 line:15%
Oh Jesus. He is really telling
us, look what Jesus says,
278
00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:49.790 line:15%
in verse 5: he says, hypocrite
279
00:15:50.900 --> 00:15:53.660 line:15%
first remove the board.
280
00:15:53.660 --> 00:15:57.830 line:15%
Remember this huge grotesque
board sticking out of our eye
281
00:15:59.660 --> 00:16:01.880 line:15%
from your own eye.
282
00:16:01.880 --> 00:16:04.430 line:15%
And then you will see clearly
283
00:16:04.430 --> 00:16:07.370 line:15%
to remove the tiny little speck
284
00:16:07.370 --> 00:16:11.780 line:15%
or the tiny moral deflect from your
285
00:16:11.780 --> 00:16:13.190 line:15%
brother's eye.
286
00:16:14.990 --> 00:16:17.810
You know, friend, I'm telling
you the truth that when,
287
00:16:18.680 --> 00:16:23.480
when I've done this and then
I say, God, I know I'm wrong.
288
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:26.690
I know I'm wrong. I must look
ridiculous in front of you
289
00:16:26.690 --> 00:16:29.030
with this huge board in front of my eye
290
00:16:29.030 --> 00:16:31.280
and staring at somebody's spec.
291
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:35.990
And I get before the Lord and I
292
00:16:35.990 --> 00:16:39.650
and I start seeing what,
how He's forgiven me.
293
00:16:42.050 --> 00:16:45.920
And I think, Lord, you've forgiven me.
294
00:16:48.800 --> 00:16:52.730
If you could judge me, I mean you,
295
00:16:52.730 --> 00:16:57.260
our judgment friend, our
judgment came on Jesus.
296
00:16:57.260 --> 00:17:00.320
The wrath of God came on Jesus.
297
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:02.330
If you're a Christian,
298
00:17:02.330 --> 00:17:06.230
you are not under condemnation anymore.
299
00:17:07.070 --> 00:17:11.900
So, so he's taken away
condemnation off of us,
300
00:17:11.900 --> 00:17:15.050
but yet we would put condemnation
301
00:17:15.050 --> 00:17:17.120
and judgment on somebody else.
302
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:20.570
And when I come before him
303
00:17:20.570 --> 00:17:24.680
and I say, Lord, there's
no condemnation in you.
304
00:17:26.450 --> 00:17:31.130
Oh Lord, forgive me. Oh
Lord, cleanse me of this.
305
00:17:32.690 --> 00:17:37.010
And I remove Lord by my own repentance,
306
00:17:37.010 --> 00:17:39.350
my own acknowledgement,
307
00:17:39.350 --> 00:17:42.500
this huge board sticking out of my eye.
308
00:17:42.500 --> 00:17:47.500
And Lord, I'm not that
speck in my brother's eye
309
00:17:47.510 --> 00:17:49.560
that is nothing.
310
00:17:49.560 --> 00:17:54.180
And I wanna thank you Lord for your forgiveness
311
00:17:54.180 --> 00:17:58.410
to me. When I receive that
312
00:17:58.410 --> 00:17:59.850
that forgiveness,
313
00:18:00.750 --> 00:18:05.750
I don't want to look
at somebody else's spec
314
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:09.570
because I forgiven so much.
315
00:18:09.570 --> 00:18:12.450
Do you remember when Jesus came,
316
00:18:12.450 --> 00:18:15.600
and it's in, it's in John 8,
317
00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:19.620
and he was teaching in the synagogue
318
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:24.420
and there came these religious leaders,
319
00:18:24.420 --> 00:18:26.040
Pharisees,
320
00:18:26.040 --> 00:18:28.890
and they're dragging with them a woman
321
00:18:28.890 --> 00:18:31.590
who was caught in the act of adultery.
322
00:18:31.590 --> 00:18:35.250
And they throw that woman down in front of Jesus
323
00:18:35.250 --> 00:18:37.350
and they talk, start talking
324
00:18:37.350 --> 00:18:39.960
to Jesus about judging him and what her
325
00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:41.880
and what, what is he going to do?
326
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:44.280
What are you gonna do Jesus?
What are you gonna do?
327
00:18:44.280 --> 00:18:47.070
And Jesus knows the law,
he knows the Roman law,
328
00:18:47.070 --> 00:18:48.600
he knows the Jewish law.
329
00:18:49.740 --> 00:18:52.410
And Jesus, he doesn't speak to him.
330
00:18:52.410 --> 00:18:54.270
He just gets down on the ground
331
00:18:54.270 --> 00:18:55.800
and he starts writing on the ground.
332
00:18:55.800 --> 00:18:58.770
And he says, which one of you, the one
333
00:18:58.770 --> 00:19:01.890
with you without any sin, you go ahead
334
00:19:01.890 --> 00:19:04.560
and you throw your first stone.
335
00:19:04.560 --> 00:19:07.410
Well, they had stones in their hands
336
00:19:07.410 --> 00:19:11.940
and they were ready to stone her to death.
337
00:19:14.010 --> 00:19:18.720
Well, when we've got that huge
board sticking out of our eye
338
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:22.590
and we're ready to condemn someone
339
00:19:22.590 --> 00:19:23.880
and judge them
340
00:19:26.340 --> 00:19:30.480
and we repent - for me,
341
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:34.410
it's like the stones that I wanted to throw,
342
00:19:35.640 --> 00:19:38.730
I wanted to, in my heart, I'm better than you.
343
00:19:38.730 --> 00:19:40.110
I'd never do that.
344
00:19:42.090 --> 00:19:46.920
The stones that I wanted to
throw, they just drop out
345
00:19:46.920 --> 00:19:47.970
of my hands.
346
00:19:49.770 --> 00:19:52.800
And I say to the Lord - Lord,
347
00:19:52.800 --> 00:19:55.530
I don't have any stones to throw.
348
00:19:55.530 --> 00:19:59.850
And I refuse
349
00:19:59.850 --> 00:20:04.200
to judge and criticize that person.
350
00:20:06.540 --> 00:20:11.190
Thank you for forgiving
me and not condemning me.
351
00:20:14.820 --> 00:20:19.170
You know this series is
called How Can We Love Better?
352
00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:25.350
We Can Love Better by
Looking How We've Been Loved.
353
00:20:25.350 --> 00:20:28.920
You can love better by looking
354
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:32.520
and thinking about how you've been forgiven
355
00:20:32.520 --> 00:20:37.520
and how there's no condemnation on you and Christ Jesus.
356
00:20:38.310 --> 00:20:42.930
And how can we say to ourselves, I have the right
357
00:20:42.930 --> 00:20:44.220
to judge you.
358
00:20:45.090 --> 00:20:46.960
No we don't.
359
00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:51.550
And Jesus said, if we do that,
360
00:20:51.550 --> 00:20:53.170
then we are a hypocrite.
361
00:20:54.550 --> 00:20:57.010
I know every one of you
that I'm talking to,
362
00:20:58.120 --> 00:21:00.400
you wanna love others better.
363
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:02.800
And you certainly...don't want Jesus
364
00:21:02.800 --> 00:21:04.615
to call you a hypocrite.
365
00:21:04.615 --> 00:21:08.800
And we gotta get rid of our stones, get
366
00:21:08.800 --> 00:21:10.780
that plank out of our eye
367
00:21:11.740 --> 00:21:15.970
and quit looking at the speck
that's in our brother's eye.
368
00:21:18.730 --> 00:21:23.730
This is a amazing way how we can show love
369
00:21:23.740 --> 00:21:25.240
to one another better.
370
00:21:26.620 --> 00:21:31.620
And I wanna remind you - love is the highest law.
371
00:21:31.630 --> 00:21:33.160
It is the highest law.
372
00:21:34.810 --> 00:21:36.940
And getting rid of that board
373
00:21:36.940 --> 00:21:41.620
and refusing to look at that
spec, we are coming up into
374
00:21:41.620 --> 00:21:44.470
that level of high level love
375
00:21:45.370 --> 00:21:47.560
and loving our brother.
376
00:21:48.670 --> 00:21:50.770
Well, I want you to stay with me
377
00:21:50.770 --> 00:21:54.850
'cause I'm gonna be right back
and we're gonna pray together
378
00:21:54.850 --> 00:21:58.600
because I know the God spirit
is working in your heart.
379
00:21:59.650 --> 00:22:03.910
Maybe you're thinking of somebody, I need to quit judging.
380
00:22:03.910 --> 00:22:05.860
I need to release them.
381
00:22:05.860 --> 00:22:08.650
I need to stop trying to fix them,
382
00:22:08.650 --> 00:22:10.210
and I need to think about me.
383
00:22:12.130 --> 00:22:14.890
Maybe that's what you're
thinking right now.
384
00:22:14.890 --> 00:22:18.370
Anyway, stay with me and
I'm gonna be right back
385
00:22:18.370 --> 00:22:19.450
and we're gonna pray together.
386
00:22:20.380 --> 00:22:23.200
We were not made to live our lives alone.
387
00:22:23.200 --> 00:22:27.070
And the Bible gives us distinct commands on how we are meant
388

I say, that's wonderful
416
00:23:44.900 --> 00:23:48.590
because I mean, maybe I
stepped on somebody's toes,
417
00:23:48.590 --> 00:23:52.610
but when Jesus steps on
her toes, it's his mercy.
418
00:23:52.610 --> 00:23:53.720
It's his mercy.
419
00:23:53.720 --> 00:23:57.080
When he says, I wanna show you something
420
00:23:57.080 --> 00:23:58.970
that I need you to work on.
421
00:23:58.970 --> 00:24:02.060

424
00:24:11.360 --> 00:24:12.440 line:15%

00:24:23.930 --> 00:24:28.880 line:15%

this is for women who are never been married,
435
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:46.460 line:15%

00:25:10.760 --> 00:25:15.740 line:15%
Redeem From Shame, is really a powerful little book
445
00:25:15.740 --> 00:25:19.040 line:15%
that shows you how that
446
00:25:19.040 --> 00:25:24.040 line:15%
when we're carrying
shame, it's extra baggage.
447
00:25:24.260 --> 00:25:27.980 line:15%
Because Jesus took our shame,
448
00:25:27.980 --> 00:25:31.430 line:15%
became shame on the cross for us,
449
00:25:31.430 --> 00:25:34.400 line:15%
and we don't have to carry it around.
450
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:38.180 line:15%
Father, I thank you so much
that we had this time together
451
00:25:38.180 --> 00:25:41.720 line:15%
and we love you and praise you in Jesus' name
452
00:25:43.400 --> 00:25:45.920 line:15%
Amen. I'll see you on the next program.
453
00:25:47.210 --> 00:25:50.360
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
454
00:25:50.360 --> 00:25:55.360 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
455
00:25:55.520 --> 00:25:57.770
Jesus has to give you.
456
00:25:57.770 --> 00:26:02.090 line:15%
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
457
00:26:02.090 --> 00:26:06.770
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior
458
00:26:06.770 --> 00:26:10.070
and Lord. Wash away my sin
459
00:26:10.070 --> 00:26:12.710
and make me completely new.
460
00:26:12.710 --> 00:26:15.050
I thank you that my sin is removed
461
00:26:15.050 --> 00:26:20.050
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
462
00:26:20.150 --> 00:26:25.150
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
463
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:27.800
for the rest of my life -
464
00:26:27.800 --> 00:26:28.800
Amen.
465
00:26:31.745 --> 00:26:34.730
If you just prayed the
prayer of salvation with us,
466
00:26:34.730 --> 00:26:36.710
would you please let us know by going
467

469

Perhaps I have to do another test.
470
00:26:58.020 --> 00:27:00.780
The only thing to do is to wait.
471
00:27:03.840 --> 00:27:07.740
I wish things have gone another way. I wanna be healthy.
472

If two of you shall agree on
earth as touching anything
477
00:27:31.830 --> 00:27:34.950 line:15%
that they shall ask, it
shall be done for them
478
00:27:34.950 --> 00:27:36.840 line:15%
of my Father, which is in heaven.
