  1. Could mention this past Wednesday night service, it certain I

  2. mean extraordinary, most unique, but it was just saturated with

  3. His presents, with his spirit, and in him is fullness

  4. of life. We experience joy that's unspeakable, in a peace

  5. of pastors, all understanding, miracles were performed. It's amazing when

  6. you think about everything that was done this past Wednesday night.

  7. Aren't you glad He's the same God today that he

  8. was just past Wednesday night.

  9. And that twenty years from now, perhaps you'll be in

  10. your greatest time of need, He'll still be the same

  11. God then that he was this past Wednesday night.

  12. And I'm glad this book is still.

  13. The same, is still the same. Praise the Lord.

  14. We miss those that are out this morning.

  15. We have one particular brother, a preacher here out taking

  16. care of another church where a pastor. The pastor messages me, so, Pastor,

  17. do you have.

  18. Somebody you could send up on our way to take

  19. care of our church in our absence? And I said, absolutely,

  20. we'd be glad to send someone up that way. So

  21. we missed brother and Sister Broadcap this morning terribly. Brother

  22. Caleb Roadcat never has to work on Sunday. This is

  23. an exception, and he mentioned the two men. I said, sure,

  24. I know you don't do it very often together, but

  25. that I know of in your entire working career. But

  26. we miss him terribly today. There are some in the hospital.

  27. Pray for them.

  28. Others are absent.

  29. Do the sickness again somewhere in the hospital, Sister share

  30. on Brother Dwayne Deef prayer. Don't you'll believe the Lord

  31. can pull her out of a hospital, get her.

  32. Up and out.

  33. Two men.

  34. Also, we have a representative there in Washington, Brother Charlie

  35. Kirk's memorial service. Again, we have sent a representative there.

  36. They are there right now, boots on the ground. And

  37. I appreciate that. Don't you appreciate that? And the mission

  38. churches are having service today. They're doing great. They seem

  39. to be greatly encouraged. And the Lord God is doing

  40. a wonderful work there. I had a foreign soul on

  41. the island of Dominika, also in Honduras and other places.

  42. Truly, God is mindful of his people. Aren't you glad

  43. to be a part of it, even if we're a

  44. small part of it. I'm glad to be part of it.

  45. Amen.

  46. It's good to have Brother Robbie Hester into service this morning,

  47. a great friend of mine.

  48. When we met years ago, our spirit shook hands, and

  49. I appreciate his stin for truth. I was privileged to

  50. have met his dad and those of you that were

  51. with us probably twelve to fifteen years ago at a

  52. different location as God was leading and guiding us and

  53. directed us here. We were at a different location. But

  54. that man that came in that night of my brother

  55. Jack Smith, brother Hester, that I had testify, he got

  56. fired up, did a great job up and down on

  57. the isle there. That was brother Robbie Hester's daddy. I

  58. thought a lot of him, if I remember correct, his

  59. brother James Esther and what a man of God.

  60. He was, just a stalwart for truth and righteousness, the

  61. lover of the Good Book.

  62. He blessed my soul. Him and I had a good

  63. conversation at to the service, and I really thought a

  64. lot of him. So it's good to have his son here,

  65. which is my friend this morning.

  66. If you feel like obey God this morning, I want

  67. you to do so. You know the Bible said the

  68. Lord is that spirit. Where the Spirit of the Lord is,

  69. there is liberty. Aren't you thankful for that? Liberty that

  70. you feel. Some may call it energy, some may call

  71. it excitement. I call it liberty. Praise God for liberty,

  72. Thank God for what we feel this morning.

  73. You can't help us mot smile when you feel this soda.

  74. All right, let's just stal run on into the divine library.

  75. If you have your Bible, you turn with me to

  76. the Book.

  77. Of Sacred Timothy.

  78. Man.

  79. Direct your attention to the third chapter.

  80. We will be reading verses number thirteen through seventeen. Brother

  81. Nathaniel Secret Timothy chapter number four and verse number two,

  82. and Brother Jesse's Song chapter number one, nineteen and verse

  83. number eleven.

  84. Again, Brother Nathaniel, Second Timothy.

  85. Chapter number four, verse number two, and Brother Jesse Psalm

  86. chapter number one nineteen and verse number eleven. And it's

  87. so good to have our visitors in the back. I

  88. believe I recognize the young men.

  89. Are you the brother that was standing around here a

  90. couple of years ago that we prayed for during our

  91. meeting our thoughts?

  92. So I don't forget faces.

  93. I'm so glad you're here, So glad you're here this point.

  94. It's good to see again.

  95. Praise it Lord, all right, Brother Nathaniel, Second Timothy, Chapter

  97. word be instant in season, out of season, reprove, review,

  98. exhort with all lung's long suffering, and doctor amen, preach

  100. that said with me, preach the word. Let's say it again.

  101. Preach the word. Now you're gonna add the word preacher

  102. behind that. Okay, preach the word preacher. Okay, I'm gonna

  103. try my best. You pray for me this morning. Brother

  104. Jesse's Song, chapter number one nineteen, verse number eleven.

  105. My word have I hid in my heart that I

  106. might not send against thee It seems to me that

  107. this blessed book that the youth group just saying about

  108. is very important.

  109. It's very important.

  110. They had no idea what I was gonna preach on

  111. this morning, but they mentioned this old ancient manuscript, and

  112. that's what I want to preach on this morning, Marinating

  113. and the Master's manuscript. Let's stand for the reading of

  114. our golden texts. Marinating in the Master's Manuscript Sewod Timothy,

  115. chapter number three, reading verses number thirteen through seventeen. The

  116. Bible says, but evil men and seducers shall wax worse

  117. and worse.

  118. Deceiving and being deceived.

  119. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned

  120. and hast been assured of, know one of whom thou

  121. hast learned them, and that from a child thou hast

  122. known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee

  123. wise unto salvation through faith, which is in Christ Jesus.

  124. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is

  125. profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction and righteousness,

  126. that the Man of God may be perfect, truly furnished

  127. uto all good words, that the Man of God may

  128. be perfect, And this terminology is expression here throughly furnished,

  129. and all good words literally means or perfected, that the

  130. Man of God may be perfect or perfected.

  131. Praise the Lord. Notice verse number fourteen.

  132. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned

  133. and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast

  134. learned them.

  135. May we pray, Heavenly Father, we praise you.

  136. We thank you for the opportunity to be in the

  137. house of the Lord today. I pray that you would

  138. annoyt this, thy loly servant God, I have nothing more

  139. than a message or a mail man to this thy people.

  140. I pray that you would have annoying me, set a

  141. guard in my.

  142. Mouth, and help you to say the things you would

  143. have you to say, nothing more or less than on

  144. the ears of this thy people, that they might hear

  145. what the spirit of God says into the church this morning. Lord,

  146. let the sayings go the shoulders. Lord, let them get

  147. in that soul and in that spirit. I pray God,

  148. help us to not depart this place sorrowfully, but rather joyfully.

  149. In Jesus's name in the.

  150. Church said Amen, as you're being seen, to look at

  151. your neighbor and said, hey, neighbor, are you saturated in

  152. the scriptures?

  153. Amen?

  154. Preaching a message the Holy Ghost titled marinating in the

  155. Master's manuscript Our.

  156. Texts found in a New Testament book in the Holy Bible,

  157. the Book of Sacred Timothy. Makes it clear to every

  158. believer and reader of.

  159. This blessed book, and this is the divine library.

  160. It is a blessed book.

  161. It is an ancient manuscript, and the readers all this

  162. divide libraries.

  163. Books of sixty six in.

  164. Number the readers of this Divide Library's books. The number

  165. of the books in this Bible are sixty six.

  166. There's plenty of reading material the readers of this Divine

  167. Librari's books that.

  168. The Apostle Paul had at that time.

  169. And also at this time, the Apostle Paul believed that

  170. the people that read the Blessed Book were a blessed people.

  171. And we know that the Apostle Paul put pen to

  172. parchment sometimes in difficult circumstances and situations and surroundings, including

  173. in times of imprisonment. He gave us these Pauline epistles,

  174. and he had people in mind, very special people in mind,

  175. as he sent forth these letters.

  176. And I feel like.

  177. This morning that the Holy Ghost had some very special

  178. people in mind as this word of God goes forth,

  179. because I'm not smart enough, nor am I intelligent enough

  180. to come up with the things that the Lord put

  181. inside of my heart today. And I'm so thankful for

  182. the good Holy Ghost, who.

  183. Knows all things about all people.

  184. And we know that this great Apostle Paul had noticed

  185. something about a young man named Timothy and sister. How

  186. upon closer observation, he recognized sincerity. Honesty and potential in

  187. the life of this young man, Timothy, and I feel

  188. like I see the same thing and a lot of

  189. people in this building this morning. And one of the

  190. things that I value most about people is this characteristic

  191. of sincerity.

  192. I love being around sincere people.

  193. Sometimes I cringe when I'm in the prances or the

  194. company of somebody that's asking loaded questions, or when I'm

  195. in the company of somebody that has an ulterior motive,

  196. or you get.

  197. That sense of a feeling that there.

  198. Is some sort of earthquake underneath the surface in that

  199. person's life and that they're not really who they say

  200. they are. But Apostle Paul recognized sincerity as a characteristic

  201. or attribute of this man's life, and Sister Wombey knew

  202. that this key ingredient of sincerity was present.

  203. And it was present because from a child, this man

  204. knew the holy scriptures.

  205. And I thank God for a grandmother and a mother

  206. The Bible.

  207. Gives the name of those two women. These two women

  208. taught this young man about the scriptures.

  209. They worked him over with the scriptures, they saturated him in.

  210. The sacred wrint.

  211. And I know that I'm preaching the people this morning

  212. that are literally sopping.

  213. Wet, soaking in the scriptures.

  214. And Brother Jacob, you mentioned something a little while ago

  215. about the service this past Wednesday night, and every person

  216. that was praised that must have been that something spectacular

  217. happened during that service, and we're receiving reports of numerous

  218. miracles that took place.

  219. Already. I have seen God work over the years.

  220. Many times, but this past Wednesday night there was something

  221. even greater and greater measure than what I had ever

  222. witnessed prior to that service. And I feel like this

  223. morning's service is springboarding off of that service, and that

  224. God is speaking to sincere hearts, sincere people, sincere believers,

  225. people that really are looking for the simplicity of truth.

  226. There's a lot of people complicating.

  227. Life because they're searching for something other than truth. But

  228. when you think about the plain and simple truth, it

  229. gives you comfort and consolation and troublesome times when I

  230. can really that I can hold in my hand the

  231. source of truth as a seeker of truth and find

  232. answers concerning lives, predicaments concerning unsettling things and turning of

  233. events in.

  234. Life, and whether Nathaniel I can find peace of mind

  235. and turbulent times through this blessed word of God. I

  236. thank God for the simplicity of truth, and with sincerity.

  237. You will find the truth. And I want you to

  238. know I believe in you.

  239. I have confidence in you this morning that you are

  240. a sincere seeker of truth. And so the apostle Paul,

  241. he knew that this young person, or this young minister

  242. was a seeker of truth to someone that valued the ministry,

  243. someone that valued the word of God, someone that did

  244. not want to let these things slip from his grasp.

  245. He believed that this young man did not want his

  246. path to end in destruction.

  247. He believed that this young man was willing to choose

  248. the right path. He did not want to lose his life.

  249. He did not want to end up in a devil's hell.

  250. And so this young man became a prominent person in

  251. the church.

  252. He became a permanent leader among the people of God.

  253. I believe because of his sincerity.

  254. I believe because of his sincerity.

  255. Since the whom you've asked the question over the years,

  256. why is that the very few people are coming to

  257. church anymore and kneeling down in the altars and praying

  258. through the old time salvation and giving their burdens and

  259. their woes and their sorrows and their troubles to God,

  260. and being washed in the ruby red blood of Jesus,

  261. and walking out the door free from their sin and

  262. everything from the change and the shackles that held fast.

  263. The reason is very few people anymore are sincere.

  264. I feel like moms.

  265. And dads failed in their endeavor to impregnate in the hearts.

  266. Of these little ones.

  267. This characteristic of sincerity. And so the Apostle Paul felt

  268. like he was not wasting his time when he put

  269. pen to parchment and sent forth this letter unto Timothy.

  270. And I don't feel like the grandmother nor the mother

  271. felt and they were wasting their time when they were

  272. planting the seeds and the word of God into this

  273. little boy.

  274. And so it becomes a young man and his name

  275. is Timothy. And Timothy still had to be developed.

  276. He still had to grow in grace and in the

  277. knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. So the

  278. Apostle Paul felt it was important that instruct Timothy a

  279. little further.

  280. Concerning spiritual matters.

  281. Paul knew that Timothy was one who would carry on the.

  282. Work of the kingdom and the apostle.

  283. Paul accepted the challenge in preparing that young man for

  284. the many things that await him.

  285. I believe there are many.

  286. Things that this generation will face, and if they are

  287. not properly prepared, it will destroy them. The things that

  288. are forthcoming, the things that they are to face.

  289. Will without a shut it down.

  290. There is no mistaken here about this at all, that

  291. they will destroy the next generation. And so this older

  292. preacher he instructed the younger preacher of things that were

  293. forthcoming and how to handle problematic situation and people. And

  294. so this minister begins to mentor an another minister.

  295. And he prepares him to expect the unexpected. And as

  296. Paul near the setting son of the horizon of his ministry,

  297. he took the time to look over his shoulder to

  298. one that was stepping out of.

  299. The sunrise of his ministry.

  300. Should I repeat that the Holy Ghost gave that to

  301. me in a time of prayer.

  302. As Paul appeared to be nearing the setting.

  303. Sun on the horizon of his ministry, he took time

  304. to look over his shoulder to such a one who

  305. was stepping out of the sunrise of his ministry. You

  306. see Paul's commission and challenge to whosoever who was willing,

  307. including tennanty, was to follow him as he followed Christ.

  308. It was not to pave out your own pathway.

  309. It was to walk in my steps if I had walked.

  310. In the steps of Christ.

  311. The trim and the preacher today is to pave out.

  312. Their own pathway.

  313. The abused descripture by saying I am searching out my

  314. own salvation with.

  315. Fear and trembling understanding.

  316. Not the content of the context of that particular scripture.

  317. Jesus Christ is our salvation. Jesus is the way. He

  318. is not only the way, He's the truth, and he's

  319. the live, and he is the gate at the end

  320. of the way. It is not for us to pave

  321. out new pathways. It is for us to walk in

  322. the already pain pathways of truth.

  323. And the apostle. Paul believed that the vial.

  324. Chapter of his life was nearing completion.

  325. When I look at our.

  326. Elders in this feeling this morning, I realize that some

  327. of them are walking toward.

  328. A setting son.

  329. And then I see our young minister so that are walking.

  330. Away from a risen son. The Apostle Paul believe that

  331. Timothy would do exactly what Paul had done.

  332. He believed it would be more.

  333. Than parenting or mimicry, but he believed that he would

  334. be imitating Jesus Christ perfectly, just as he himself had

  335. imitated Jesus Christ. And so the time of Apostle Paul's

  336. departure has come. It seems like an unlikely time. It

  337. seems like an unlikely time of data for.

  338. Such a great man.

  339. It seems like an unlikely, unfortunate faint.

  340. But the time has come, and this great man of

  341. God is willing to.

  342. Pour out himself as a liquid offering, that one that

  343. was willing to be spent, that one that was willing

  344. to eat himself black and blue daily. He used the

  345. words I die daily, I crucify myself daily. He realizes

  346. my time has come, and I'm about to make my departure.

  347. And as I make my departure, someone will pick up

  348. the spiritual mental and someone.

  349. Will follow in Jesus's.

  350. Path that I have walked in, and they will begin

  351. a their foot race. They will begin their fight. And

  352. so Apostle Paul could say concerning the foot race of life,

  353. that he is nearing the finish line, while some are

  354. only walking up into the arena, and I have not yet.

  355. Put on their running shoes.

  356. Concerning the spiritual squirmishes and spiritual wickedness in high places

  357. that he has had to fight against, the apostle, Paul said, well,

  358. I made not a part of perfect pipe that I

  359. did pipe.

  360. A good fight.

  361. Thank God for that word of good before the word

  362. of fight.

  363. Not only did he.

  364. Fight a good fight during all the.

  365. Many squirmaces so that he faced, so he ran a

  366. good array, that sister, how well he finished strong. This

  367. man of God kept one eye on Heaven's open gate

  368. and kept his other eye on the young minister, sir

  369. coming behind him. I've seen over her ministers before forget

  370. about the upcoming generation, and they get so focused.

  371. Old now the.

  372. Country that they forget about he's coming behind him.

  373. And I want to tell you it is.

  374. My commitment and obligation to you that for as long

  375. as I live, I will keep one eye, Oh Jesus,

  376. and on the open gate, and I'll keep another eye

  377. he looking over you, to make sure heck.

  378. You room what God.

  379. Would have you to do.

  380. To keep a watch blivee on the.

  381. Sheepa as a shepherd apostle party, and that so well

  382. better the thing you are feel like this morning you

  383. talk to a wonderful Sunday school.

  384. Listen to this group of believers. I'm listen there to

  385. every word that you just spoken. And I said this

  386. no doubt that Sunday school Lessen was sent out of

  387. the pools of glory.

  388. He came straight out of a master's throne room and

  389. descending at a letter fifty three Cornelia Drive, and will

  390. spread out.

  391. Here to pray by the man a brother and not

  392. than your.

  393. God's servant, Apostle Paul.

  394. Lucky.

  395. God doesn't only want to use Paul, he wants to

  396. use Timothy.

  397. Bella Jeremy knows God doesn't home. We want to use Bella.

  398. Jeermy, howell Godness to use this consideration that one is

  399. putting the steps up.

  400. Well, we stepped to here.

  401. Fee you lot, preaching to you this morning, because bear

  402. with me just a little while while I preach. Apostle

  403. Paul was not war enough to consider people's background novel pedigree.

  404. We find that this man.

  405. Of God had as our as successor especial young man.

  406. What that we've met nearing his travels up through Listra.

  407. That half breed, that one that was parting town, and

  408. that one that was half you.

  409. That was Paul sa in our pain, my brother.

  410. In Christ, a fellow laborer, and he was a poor

  411. and partner et TOI apostle Paul. If without question these

  412. two men would have been in compliance with a proper

  413. amus's requirement. How can do you walk together unless they

  414. be agreed? These dens were hand in hand, shouldered the shoulder. Ah,

  415. come on down, I've heard the second day.

  416. Why can't we all?

  417. Heck, you get along as long as one's here too

  418. the left, and once here into the line, we're not

  419. gonna walk kick your step after your husbands and life

  420. and you to get one way and your partner did

  421. another after a while, Ready there be this harmony after

  422. a while. Heck, there't be discoverer, and that to then

  423. not into the room. That can't be this connetion, and go,

  424. PASAI have to you there U was no hockey go

  425. on minding my and there was their deviossiveness.

  426. I gives two minut of God, a bother and a

  427. son we raise. It's hip, I feel I preaching to

  428. you this morning.

  429. Follow me, Son, as I follow Christ. I'm getting close

  430. to being Lord six feet under. I'm getting close to

  431. being executed for simply standing up and speaking out.

  432. For and concerned the things that I believe in. And Son,

  433. the same thing's gonna happen to you if you're not careful.

  434. But you know what, don't be careful, be lo to

  435. three Hebrew children. Don't ben, don't do.

  436. Don't budge, and don't be hesitant, careful, overlooking, and all

  437. to answer the Emperor of the world and say.

  438. We're gonna obey God rather have me. And without question,

  439. these men walked together in agreement. I believe hold of

  440. goos Field believers ought to be able to read the

  441. same book and draw the same conclusion. For the most part, concerning.

  442. Matters of scripture, something in scripture stood out to me

  443. early this morning.

  444. And I want you to notice the words in one

  445. Timothy one and eighteen. This charge I commit.

  446. Unto these, Son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went

  447. before on THEE, this charge I.

  448. Commit unto thee Son Timothy.

  449. Notice the affectionate turn Son Timothy, according to the prophecies

  450. which went on before THEE. He also had told Timothy

  451. to remember the gift that he had received. While the

  452. great Apostle had put his hands upon his head, he said,

  453. stir up the gift that is within me.

  454. Is what Paul the mentor would tell the young ministers

  455. coming up behind him.

  456. And Paul here reminded Timothy of his calling and his commissioning.

  457. He warned the young man of promoting heresy. He warned

  458. the young man of accepting heresy. He warned the young

  459. man of grievous wolf's coming into his congregation.

  460. Just like what happened in any other congregation, than any other.

  461. Shepherd oversaw the affairs of sesays to how he promoted

  462. truths and righteousness according to the Word of God.

  463. Brother Nathaniel, as you talk this morning, this man put truth.

  464. Meaning the Bible over all matters. The Bible is what's

  465. settled the matter. What do thus say it the Word

  466. of God. Even when Jesus Christ.

  467. The Word himself, walking upon the face of the earth, was.

  468. Tested and tempted and try to the devil, he didn't

  469. try to develop a new doctrine.

  470. He didn't try to explain.

  471. Why a certain person was doing things a certain way.

  472. He just simply quote in what was written in the

  473. Word of God. To Jesus, it matters. To you, it matters,

  474. and this is what I want you to get a

  475. hold of. To the Lucifer, it matters. If you speak

  476. the world of God to demons, demons will flee, And

  477. if you speak the word of God to sincere people,

  478. they will.

  479. Come closer to the truth.

  480. Did you hear me?

  481. When you speak the word of God to demons, they

  482. will flee, even if they're living inside of people, because

  483. they cannot stand what the word of God says. I've

  484. never made an enemy that I know of outside of

  485. the pulp pit. But I have found that hearing preaching

  486. under the anointing of the Holy Ghost, with simply preaching

  487. truth and giving them what they said the word of God,

  488. that people have decided to call me enemy.

  489. And sometimes I think, oh my, what did I say.

  490. That offended somebody in such a manner, And then I

  491. remember what Jesus said.

  492. He said, whatsoever they did to me, they will do

  493. unto you. Do you all not realize this is what

  494. happened to our brother brother Charlie Kirka.

  495. He not only stood on the truth, he spoke out,

  496. and it was that speaking out it cost him. He

  497. has a life again. We've got a representative there today.

  498. We've got somebody with boots on the ground and they're

  499. looking out over It looks like tens of thousands of

  500. people from what I saw in the picture. They sent

  501. me their snappers on the roofs everywhere. It was amazing

  502. to look at these photos before a man the poopit

  503. and I realized they're protecting the speakers of truth that

  504. will speak today. And you know what, he ain't got

  505. snappers up in the steeple and another holy the search.

  506. We ain't got a snapper on the roof of the fellowship.

  507. Paul, and I want you to know that God, he

  508. can help us.

  509. And he can protect those are a sincerely seeking.

  510. The tree, and those are a sincerely speaking the truth.

  511. I want to preach to you for a little while today.

  512. I'll keep it around an hour, but I want to ask,

  513. are you marinating in the.

  514. Word of God?

  515. Fend the title, Come up here and get this basin

  516. of water. I want you to set it right there

  517. in front of the pool pit. If you can. You

  518. might have to pull an altar over and put it

  519. up on the altar. I want you to grab up

  520. this sponge right here, Brother Philip.

  521. And Brother Jesse, I want you to to hold these

  522. sponges until I tell you, and then after a while,

  523. I want you to drop those sponges into that basin

  524. of water. We've got some wonderful kutza after bethle A

  525. Holiness Church.

  526. I figured that out about eighteen years ago when.

  527. God suit me down here, and I realize they knew

  528. avalue and the importance.

  529. Of a good marinade. A lot of times I.

  530. Hear Sister Wood and tell that one coming along behind

  531. her named Crystal Harrison. I've got to go marinate the meat.

  532. Are you all waiting here?

  533. You see every master chef, a real master barbecue chef, cooker, homemaker,

  534. even the mister moms of.

  535. The world, they all know the importance of.

  536. A marinading proteins before they are put under pressure. Everybody's

  537. show everybody looking what brother Jessie, everybody in the fellow

  538. for showing you those stew sponges of represent protein. Betther Chesseie,

  539. yours represents a piece of chickens, say on that corner,

  540. and better, Philip, yours represents a wreck of ribs. Let's

  541. trumple them in the marinate if we shall, Hey, sister, howell.

  542. The cooks know the important of marinating proteins.

  543. Before they are put under pressure. And that's what Apostle

  544. Paul was doing here.

  545. When he told Timothy, you're gonna need a content a Bible.

  546. You're gonna need a man skipt un your arm. Your

  547. grandmother and your mother, little Lois, and your niecea. When

  548. you were young, they begin to seizon you. When you

  549. were a little world.

  550. He knew of the scriptures. When you were a little boy.

  551. You got dropped to get the marriaid, Oh.

  552. Come on now, but the Christmas coming, the precious coming, and.

  553. You better remember you've been marinading in the Muster's famous

  554. steps that I'll killing what?

  555. Oh no, did you know why the kids do there?

  556. So?

  557. Did they do it because they know that the marinadeing

  558. fluid that you'll penetrate to the protein in the solution

  559. after the protein O. It's put in there taking while,

  560. and so appreciate.

  561. The frus will remain in the protein.

  562. It's so you the season you can pull it out

  563. of the marinade, or did you can casting.

  564. It on the frame you can put it in or nothing.

  565. You can put it on the pression. But after it's

  566. ferenading in the marinade, Noddy gets seeing that county. That's

  567. what cot pulling out the Kenny. Then that's why I.

  568. Say, look, let's start a turt chugging. Not just any

  569. church chugging.

  570. Let's there were the marinated Moody, then the masters suchy Manistas.

  571. Preach the world.

  572. I don't need any any.

  573. Baptist preacher sermons. I don't need any Catholic minister servants.

  574. I don't need any Pentecostal preacher sermons worn.

  575. But give me something out of their word, a specific word,

  576. for a specific season, for specifics.

  577. P's a person.

  578. I want to say it again, out to the protein.

  579. Let's put in that marinade, that fluid.

  580. You put it under pressure, Brother Michael, it will still

  581. maintain that season in that flavor, and a human being

  582. or creature, we'll get the sample, the final product. And

  583. every time somebody says, what's your mari needed?

  584. In Bethel Church family.

  585. Christians, ministers, listen, each child of God needs to be

  586. completely saturated.

  587. And so in the Word of God.

  588. That's why I said in our Golden Text reading, he

  589. said you have been since a child soaked in.

  590. The scriptures, and I don't want y'all to.

  591. Fall out with me.

  592. But if Grandma and Grandpa believe this bless of Milk

  593. and read it or so, then this present.

  594. Generation is If Dad Mom.

  595. Believed in the writings of this ain't for manuscript, and

  596. they practice what they preach.

  597. And they walk to talk and they talk to talk,

  598. there is no way I will believe that this generation

  599. has been enlightened when they are not marinating in the.

  600. Master's manuscriptor we are not soaked in the world of

  601. talking on now, when they're.

  602. Not wasted, not a word of the Lord, it's worry if.

  603. We need his word to be in us.

  604. So when the pressure comes, when the heat is turned up,

  605. these scriptures will find a way out of your blissome

  606. I said, whenever the pressure is on, when the heat

  607. is turned up, these pictures will find a man alcohol.

  608. I feel trap. If it's putting there. You train up

  609. a child in the wayless and corol, then when they

  610. get older, Rea, they will not depart from it.

  611. You won't.

  612. Why the three Hebrews responded the way they did over

  613. to the Emperor, that's.

  614. Because it was in the heart not to sin against

  615. their God.

  616. Amen, my brother read a golden text that the Starmers felt.

  617. Was most important in his life.

  618. He said, thy word, have I hid in my heart

  619. that I might not sin against thee?

  620. Brother, Philip pool your recaree of.

  621. Talt of the mariname? Thy word have I hid in

  622. my heart that against them? As sure as every American

  623. citizen should know.

  624. Maybe not memorized, but my generation and the generation before

  625. mine required you to memorize the United States Constitution.

  626. Can I get a witness? Do y'all remember that?

  627. And do you know that this generation forthcoming they have

  628. no idea of the content or the.

  629. Context of the United States Constitution.

  630. Every child of God should know the writings of the manuscript.

  631. Thank you about the Philip dropping right back.

  632. In their service.

  633. After service, Hey, the little children come.

  634. Back and we put them back in the marinade.

  635. We leave them sunking in the scripture.

  636. We leave them marinating in the marinated No, come on,

  637. and as you are supposed to know the writings of

  638. a constitution.

  639. Even so, every.

  640. Child of God in this building should know the writers

  641. of this blessed book. If I remember correctly the words

  642. in the United States Constitution, it's a.

  643. Number of less than forty five hundred. I remember being.

  644. Between four thousand and forty five.

  645. Hundred words in our Constitution.

  646. But I remember being a young preacher and wonder just

  647. how many words are in the Keen Chains translation of

  648. the Bible sixty six books.

  649. You want to know how many words?

  650. About seven hundred and eighty three thousand words are in

  651. that Bible.

  652. It sounds to me like somebody better hurry up and

  653. get to soaking.

  654. And in the Marrinad.

  655. I mean, if you've only got forty.

  656. Five hundred to be the rock kind of United.

  657. States, an American citizen, to know our constitution, there's seven

  658. hundred and eighty three thousand words in God's Booker, somebody

  659. gonna start soaken and somefing this scripture. Somebody better done

  660. beyond just leaning over and now and here that they're

  661. just throwing the church of it the area that somebody

  662. better get busy. Eve's sucking up, give a scripts.

  663. Do you learn about something wet?

  664. Buddy?

  665. Hearing that apparently arguement, Cody putting that pew that tells you, honey.

  666. So that Jesus is the way.

  667. Hey, you can tell me, Roddy while you're tripping wet

  668. codey bither script some.

  669. Me, oh yeah, something, Jesus himself saying, that's the way.

  670. Forty five hundred.

  671. Words, seven hundred and eighty three thousand words, My Jesus,

  672. we gotta get busy.

  673. We gotta get busy learning the.

  674. Words of our constitution, because when you don't learn the

  675. words of the.

  676. Constitution, you don't know what your rights are. You don't

  677. know what your rights are.

  678. You don't know what your privileges are, you don't know

  679. what your judgments are, you don't know what your earnings are.

  680. And that's how years Right here, the Bible teaches us

  681. that if we're not careful, we will air concerning the scriptures.

  682. We're supposed to search the scriptures the Bible self. Of course,

  683. in you you think you have eternal life.

  684. It could be that we're missing something.

  685. It could be that we're overlooking something. This is what

  686. the Bible said.

  687. God gave us some apostles, He gave us some evangelist,

  688. some pastors and teachers.

  689. Why from the perfecting.

  690. Of the church for the edifying of the body of Christ.

  691. The very purpose of having a pastor that has been

  692. marinating in the manuscripture is so that you can't be

  693. perfected concerning the.

  694. Things of God.

  695. This generation feels like her they.

  696. Could be ignorant of what the Constitution says without consequence.

  697. This generation also.

  698. Feels like they could be ignorant to about an ancient

  699. manuscript the Bible says without ex sension or without consequence,

  700. it is foolish that what's that.

  701. The paralding fathers and the Pounding Father Philip very important

  702. that we build upon the Constitution in this country. And

  703. the Pounding Father felt like, it's very important that we

  704. build upon the word of God. The word of God

  705. is to be the law for the believer of Jehovah. Amen.

  706. And the Constitution of his forty five hundred words or

  707. so is to be the law of the land in

  708. the United States of America. The church said, Amen, whose

  709. word the word of God's what matters to me. The

  710. sound of God's word is a blessing to me, because

  711. the Bible said, faith cometh by hearing the word of God,

  712. Thy words of by heed of my heart, that I

  713. might not sin against the sister Howell, brother Jesse, Brother Philip.

  714. This is somebody speaking before Jesus Christ even came, and

  715. he's saying I need to put.

  716. The word of God in my heart that I might

  717. not transgress against him. As I was praying, I said, God,

  718. let's put this on the flip side, speaking of my heart.

  719. How we could look at this from the other angle.

  720. And here's what it gave me. If I willingly or

  721. recklessly choose to not saturate my very heart with.

  722. Your very law, I will become a transgressior.

  723. Now word have I hid in my heart?

  724. My heart has very NATed up in your word, until

  725. the fluids have penetrated even to the very core of

  726. my being the cause of.

  727. That precious disciple that Jesus loved, and who loved Jesus.

  728. It burst John three and four.

  729. He said, sin is a transgression of the law. That

  730. is one of the pillars of the only church. That

  731. is somebody that is supposed to Jesus Christ's death, resurrection and.

  732. Burialing resurrection, that is one of the very disciples of

  733. Jesus established in the trench.

  734. And saying, seeing is a transgression.

  735. Of how along I'll kneel, how his word in my heart?

  736. That way, when my pasta it starts changing things that way,

  737. when the deacon.

  738. More look it stops the.

  739. Times and times is that way.

  740. When teachers that can stop doing it tacky.

  741. I'm coming in my heart that this man naming that

  742. my soul ready just penetrating that into my.

  743. Being, that it's become me. I'll become here. But oh

  744. thank God, we ain't gonna go to.

  745. Somebody if we aren't marinating with a manuscript. The scripture

  746. will not mose out of us. When we are tempted,

  747. tested and tried. And we're not only tempted, tested and

  748. tried in this world, we are tempted, tested and tried

  749. in the church atmosphere, whatever contro mins and spirits come in,

  750. and when compromising spirits deceived leadership, Oh come on, now,

  751. we are tempted and tried, and sometimes what we're saying

  752. is I just can't go along with it. Brother Nathaniel,

  753. you didn't know what I was gonna preach on it.

  754. But you know what, Brother nathaner had a hold of it.

  755. I hope they recorded that. I hope they put it

  756. on a sprinker. But it sounds to me like you

  757. and I are in agreement today as Paul and Timothy

  758. was in agreement.

  759. Oh, brother Jessey, I can't stand it.

  760. When they try to tell me God has felt the

  761. same today as he was, I can pull.

  762. Out a scripture that I learned in the firmary Sunday.

  763. School class that said He is the same yesterday, today,

  764. and forever, that his word is forever settled in heaven.

  765. I'm glad some things don't change. And I'll tell you this.

  766. There's a lot of people changing, and there's a lot

  767. of churches changing, and there's a lot of doctrine changing.

  768. But I want to know this. Come with the learn

  769. of God.

  770. Say concerning the matter. I think I should say this again.

  771. If you aren't properly marinated in the Master's manuscript, you

  772. will not use truth when you're struck, when something strikes

  773. you strange, when something sounds off.

  774. If you're being marinated.

  775. In the manuscript, you know our brother Nathaniel, you won't

  776. be where you were struck.

  777. You'll use truth.

  778. And I'm getting it.

  779. It's like a tree that produces a sap and has

  780. been struck, it begins to ooze.

  781. I'm going somewhere.

  782. I know it's a Sunday morning, and our great brother

  783. be preaching it not and I'll be out of the way.

  784. But listen, for every US citizen.

  785. Who knows their rights, These words of the Constitution will

  786. flow out.

  787. Of them when they are challenge. Hey, are y'all listening?

  788. And it may seem.

  789. Unfair to some, It may.

  790. Seem fair to some. It may seem lawful to some.

  791. It may seem unlawful for some. Are y'all weaving right here?

  792. This is the same thing with the word of God.

  793. People say, that's not fair. I can't live up to it.

  794. I'm sorry, but you know who can help you live it.

  795. Jesus can.

  796. Author princes preach on the outpourt of the Holy ghosts

  797. which took place in uppero.

  798. It's true that the house and the believers in the

  799. house were soaked by the spirit.

  800. But there is something I want to point out that

  801. God pointed out to me in prayer.

  802. When Peter and the others were literally soaked by the

  803. spirit and the power of God was manifested, and then

  804. believers in the upper room, and it even spilled out

  805. into the streets, what did Peter begin to do?

  806. He had been marinating in the Master's manuscript and.

  807. He began to speak. I'm telling you, he began to

  808. speak the word of God. He began to preach the truth.

  809. So it was soaked in the spirit, and it was

  810. soaked in the word.

  811. He was soaked in spirit, and he was soaked in

  812. the scriptures.

  813. Of y'all getting it. So he came out in the spirit.

  814. And when he came out in the spirit, he spoke

  815. the Word. He didn't speak a new doctrine. He didn't

  816. speak a new truth. He didn't speak a new way.

  817. He didn't speak a new teacher system. He spoke the

  818. words of Charles. He said, these men are not.

  819. Drunk with wine, as you suppose he did to night

  820. the hour or.

  821. The third hour of the day, he said, but these

  822. men have been filled with.

  823. The spirit, just like the prophet, choir said, he began

  824. to preach the word. This tells me that even the apostles,

  825. they knew the word of God when Jesus chose him.

  826. They knew the word of God. They might have been

  827. fishermen enough, but they knew the word of God.

  828. I'll tell you it.

  829. Doesn't matter how much spirit of God, how much shout

  830. you God, how much chuck you got to. What matters

  831. is what does.

  832. The wonder love?

  833. God's concerning that?

  834. This matter?

  835. Amen. So when he stood up.

  836. In the streets, and when men heard him speak, he

  837. was filled with the spirit.

  838. But he spilled the scriptures. You need to be felled

  839. before you speel. You need to be feeled before you speel.

  840. And so I was filled with the holy ghost of

  841. the spirit, and he spilled the scriptures.

  842. He had been a student of the Word of God.

  843. And as a prayer, I said, God, I feel like

  844. there's something else you're wanting to say right here, he said,

  845. did not the common people accuse them of being drunk

  846. because of the way they spoken, of the languages, because

  847. of the way they staggered and swayed in the spirit.

  848. To me, I think that's a whole lot work commonly

  849. than somebody going up in a football stadium arena and

  850. drinking too many and swaying and hagar and following down

  851. the steps. You know what, the people this world say,

  852. he had a good time. He deserved it. It was

  853. a good game on his birthday. It was a good

  854. strong drink. It was also a good bump, I guess,

  855. and it was a good bruise. And I hope he

  856. didn't follow on anybody's kids. But they all say he

  857. had a good time because he was a swinging and

  858. the drunk and whatever spirit it was, they pulled off

  859. the shelf and put in a corner to take with them.

  860. And somehow they want us to believe that's honorable. But

  861. God sent me in out of an upper room.

  862. And they were shouting in the spirit, which one of

  863. the men shouting, twisting, turning, hollering, lifting up their voice,

  864. celebrating Jesus Christ.

  865. Speaking in other languages. And this is what God gave me.

  866. They accused them of boozing, and I said, Lord, say on,

  867. He said, they accused them of boozing, but they were oozing.

  868. They were oozing.

  869. Are y'all with me right here? Hey, I'm telling you

  870. what they might take.

  871. You are crazy.

  872. They might take because standing enough like contructing man when

  873. you speak the Spencers.

  874. But you haven't been boozing. You're using up the.

  875. Word of God.

  876. And I'm telling you I felt Natani said today. It's

  877. okay to say I did follow you, but I no

  878. longer follow you up.

  879. It's because you know wronger, I'm following trust.

  880. I'm telling you it's hot using your scripture.

  881. You know what.

  882. They can't stand it when you present scripture. They love

  883. it when you present spirit, but when you present scripture.

  884. They get upset. So these men hadn't been boozing.

  885. They were using Brother Nathaniel saying to me like this morning,

  886. you were using truth, saying to me like this morning.

  887. You were just using the Gospel. It sayd to me

  888. like you were just using the Word of God.

  889. And people could say it's cynical, that's cynical mannerism, that's

  890. cynical behavior.

  891. That's cynical.

  892. Brother.

  893. The thing that to get up there and say that

  894. he's supposed to submit to dictatorship. He's supposed to submit

  895. to that type of contaminated leadership. He's supposed to submit

  896. to people that have walked away from the truth. The

  897. last time I checked the scriptures, we're supposed.

  898. To obeate God and not men. When there it comes to.

  899. Be a descriptancy between leadership and the ultimate leadership, y'all

  900. told me a little while ago, preach the word. Preacher

  901. Timothy perceived of Paul that he meant what he said.

  902. He was saying what the Holy Goot said. Not only marinated,

  903. it manifested. And that's how I want to end. Not

  904. only should we marinate in it, we should manifest it

  905. and it's just clear water. Whether as I want you

  906. to pull your proteins out, I want you to do

  907. your best to kind of get some of that out there,

  908. not all of it. I want you to walk around

  909. this church. It'll be a long time before you get

  910. that marinade out. What it has done is done now.

  911. And that's what I told.

  912. Go ahead, walk around, brother, That's what I've told preachers

  913. before they want to compromise.

  914. I said, if you've come too late to tell me,

  915. he come too late to me.

  916. Now.

  917. It doesn't matter how much you talk about pastor how

  918. It doesn't matter how much you lie about me being

  919. a bad guy. It doesn't matter how much you lie

  920. about me having a bad attitude. I'll say this again.

  921. I've never made an enemy outside of a good bit.

  922. But one thing they're gonna find, Brother Jesse, when they

  923. squeeze me, thought I.

  924. When they squeeze me, they think they're gonna squeeze the

  925. truth out of this man, and I'm a nobody. They

  926. think they're gonna squeeze the truth out of the sister

  927. always meeting by telling her you don't have to be.

  928. That way anymore.

  929. But brother just said, and Brother.

  930. Philip intensify the situation, increase the Pressureack.

  931. I just can't get it out of ies. I just

  932. can't get it out of ice.

  933. There's no deceiver, no conniver, no manipulator, no compromising.

  934. Sorry, oh my god.

  935. Cause when you've hit your word in your heart, I'm

  936. talking about your copy of his words.

  937. Let's stand. Well, we've been squeezing.

  938. I was moping now for thirty three years, but she's

  939. so did Its just how you've been saved. I think

  940. thirty one years, thirty two years. Let's see, wonder what happened.

  941. They put Paul through it, But every time they squeezed

  942. out came liquid Lord.

  943. In the truth.

  944. If you succeeded and squeezing every bit of that food out,

  945. we still.

  946. Smell the truth.

  947. I want you, I want you all to sup of them.

  948. You want a brother tolerance to take one of his grandmother.

  949. Not only will we marinated it, we're gonna manifest it here.

  950. And I speak as a fool, and I know we're

  951. not the only one here.

  952. We're not only gonna marinate in it, we're gonna manifest it,

  953. which means just let it spill out the truth. When

  954. the time comes, when they will refuse sound doctrine. If

  955. you may have marinated it, you will spill out sound

  956. doctors when the time comes that they will look for

  957. those to tickle their ears with verbal feathers and to

  958. tickle their chins with verbal feathers. We will preach what

  959. does that have to blay a god? When they turn

  960. from truth onto a lie? Unto fables, we will preach

  961. the word. How many, by the showing of hands, has

  962. experienced a versus scripture coming around?

  963. And you've been going through a hard time.

  964. The scripture carried you through it, and the scripture will

  965. carry us through the treacherous to run a trollers.

  966. Compromisers. The scripture will carry you through it. This generation

  967. doesn't need any more pet rallies.

  968. They have plenty.

  969. They need more merry in the manuscripts.

  970. I know there's somebody in this building that needs to

  971. come get this other sponge, and it's yours if you

  972. want to get it right now. It's going to serve

  973. as a landmark in your ministry. If you'll come get

  974. it right now. I'm telling you you're through the.

  975. Holy Ghost, know how about?

  976. I know.

  977. You will never get the sign of Him.

  978. You will never get to sign of her. You will

  979. never get this truth out of you. Your daddy put

  980. it in your brother.

  981. Hey, I don't your momago. I feel the Holy ghost

  982. in this place. Your pastor put it in your brother,

  983. and they can squeezes and we will be a scripture.

  984. But the bolence is I feel like we need to

  985. make our way to the.

  986. Altars, whether as if you would come up here as sisters,

  987. if you would come over here, and I want us

  988. to pray and say God, I will stand alone on

  989. the world of God. I can't find gray in here.

  990. It's all black and white and red. You can't find gray.

  991. Search the scriptures.

  992. Search the scriptures, Search the scriptures, Search the scriptures.

  993. Jesus, I thank you for your word. It's forever settled

  994. in heaven.

  995. I thank you for the Bible.

  996. Will bless all of my friends today. Lord, they've come

  997. before you. I've got it to act. They're seekers of

  998. the truth. Not all the seekers are sincere seekers of

  999. the truth. There's the reason they're here together. They're searching

  1000. for your words. They're searching the scriptures that they're not

  1001. having time, Lord, forgetting about what the world says, forgetting

  1002. about the voices of the way of forgetting about the

  1003. scripts are focusing on the ancient manuscripts.

  1004. We come to date in this word and to being.

  1005. A fastic techs to preach the truth and how they live.

  1006. It says, it says, It says, it's this word is

  1007. in us. He's the.

  1008. Hesters, that's his world.
